The Bible depicts the holiday of Shavuot as a harvest festival, but talmudic tradition overlaid that theme with a theological motif. Shavuot occurs exactly seven weeks after Passover, and in the worldview of the rabbis the holiday commemorates divine revelation, the moment when the Jewish people stood at Mount Sinai to accept the Torah and its commandments.In philosophical terms, it is national movement from "negative freedom" – liberation from Egyptian slavery – to "positive freedom" – acceptance of substantive social and moral values. Hence there arose a beautiful Jewish custom to stay awake all Shavuot night studying Torah, so each post-Sinai Jew could re-experience that divine encounter and plumb the Torah's mysterious content. We also read the Scroll of Ruth (Megilat Ruth) on the morning of the holiday.Megilat Ruth is short, its plot elegant. In four short chapters, the megila succeeds in dramatizing the depth and beauty of human compassion.There are secondary dimensions, such as the Jewish people's connection to the Land of Israel, Ruth's conversion to Judaism, the spiritual renewal of Naomi, and Ruth's central role in shaping the Jewish people. But the dominant theme is neither Zionist nor halachic (legal) nor feminist. In the center of the story stands human kindness (hessed) and its power in history.The poignant tale begins in Bethlehem circa 1200 BCE. Elimelech is a wealthy Jew who leaves his native Israel when a famine hits. He takes his wife, Naomi, and two sons with him across the Jordan to the land of Moab. Finding the good life there, he decides to stay, and his sons marry Moabite women. Then disaster strikes: Elimelech and his sons die, widowing Naomi and her daughters-in-law, Orpah and Ruth. The women find themselves abandoned and poverty-stricken in a hostile country.Naomi gives up all hope and decides to return to home – perhaps to die. She implores her Moabite daughters-in-law not to accompany her, for as strangers they will have no future with her in Jewish Bethlehem. Orpah accepts the logic of Naomi's plea, but Ruth resists. In a gesture of breathtaking kindness, Ruth pledges absolute devotion to Naomi: "Wherever you go, I will go; wherever you stay I will stay. Your people shall be my people, and your God, my God." So the two widows return to Bethlehem where Naomi instructs the residents to call her Mara ("bitterness") rather than her true name, which means "pleasantness." Crushed and embittered, Naomi has lost all faith in the future.It is harvest season and Ruth sets out to provide for Naomi by gleaning the fields, taking the barley grain left behind by the reapers. (It is a commandment of the Torah to leave the corners of one's fields for the poor and the stranger – a biblical welfare system.) Ruth chances on the fields of Boaz, the richest land-baron in the area. When Boaz learns the identity of this Moabite stranger, he pleads with Ruth to stay in his fields and take whatever she needs. He orders his workers to protect her and treat her generously, as one of the family."But why are you so kind to single me out when I am only a foreigner?" asks Ruth.Replies Boaz, "I have been told of all that you did for your mother-in-law after your husband's death: how you left your father and mother and the land of your birth and came to a people you had not known before."Boaz stands in awe of Ruth's selflessness and kindness. He feels honored in the presence of this indigent, yet magnanimous, stranger! Boaz gives Ruth enough barley to last Naomi and her for five full days – well beyond the religious commandment or a day's normal gleaning. When Ruth returns, she relates Boaz's kindness to her mother-in-law. Naomi begins to feel some hope for the future, and thankfulness penetrates her bitter spirit: "Blessed be he to the Lord who has not withheld his kindness to the living or the dead."Naomi allows herself to hope that her relative Boaz will buy back (redeem) the family plot, which had been sold out of poverty. But dare she hope that he will even marry Ruth to preserve the family name and protect the two widows – two other mitzvot of the Torah? The harvest season quickly passes, and Boaz has maintained his generous, but formal, posture toward Ruth. Naomi senses that she must take the initiative and instructs Ruth to act boldly: "Bathe, cover yourself with oils, dress up and go to the threshing floor tonight... When Boaz is asleep, uncover his feet and lie down next to him... He will tell you what to do next."After Ruth follows her mother-in-law's instructions, Boaz awakens startled to find a woman lying next to him: "Who are you?" "I am your handmaid Ruth. Spread your robe over your handmaid, for you are a redeeming kinsman."Boaz, an elderly man of 80 years, correctly interprets Ruth's gesture as a request for marriage and proclaims, "This recent act of hessed is greater than your first [to Naomi], for you have not turned to younger men, rich or poor."How ironic, yet true: The wealthy and powerful Boaz also needs human kindness! (Evidently Boaz was a successful entrepreneur, but his personal life was in shambles. How many CEOs are divorced? How may rich people suffer loneliness?) The megila is telling us that every person – rich or poor, powerful or weak, "successful" or unfortunate – feels loneliness and insecurity.Every one of us needs hessed.Boaz wants to marry Ruth, yet there is an obstacle: Ruth has a closer relative with prior rights to "redeem" the family plot according to biblical law. Early the next morning Boaz confronts this relative in the town square: "Buy the land in the presence of those seated here... But if you refuse to redeem it, tell me, for I am next after you."Eager to own more property, the relative readily consents, but then Boaz shrewdly adds: "You must also acquire the wife of the deceased, Ruth the Moabite."Acquiring profitable land makes sense, but taking responsibility for a foreign Moabite woman is quite another matter."Then I cannot redeem it lest I destroy my own estate. You take over my right of redemption."The megila pointedly refuses to name this selfish kinsman. He is referred to simply as the anonymous "Ploni-Almoni" – the Hebrew equivalent of John Doe. His stinginess stands in marked contrast to Boaz's generosity, and because of his selfishness his name will never be recorded among the Jewish people.Now free of impediments, Boaz marries Ruth and assumes responsibility for the two women.Out of this loving marriage, Ruth bears a son.Naomi regains hope when she is told that the boy "will renew your life and sustain you in old age. He is born to your daughter-in-law who loves you and is better to you than seven sons."But who is this child born to Boaz and Ruth? He is Obed, the grandfather of King David and the father of the messianic lineage. From Ruth's one gracious act of hessed emerges the king of the Jewish people; and from King David will emerge the messiah, who will bring peace to all humanity.The obvious question arises: Why did the Talmudic rabbis select the holiday of Shavuot, Hag Matan Toratenu, for the Jewish People to hear Megilat Ruth? The Babylonian Talmud (Sota 14a) states: "The Torah begins with an act of hessed and ends with an act of hessed." In other words, the entire Torah is hessed! It is a blueprint for how to live a life of kindness and how to support others. The Torah depicts God Himself as the role model for acts of hessed: He clothes the naked (Adam and Eve), visits the sick (Abraham), comforts those in mourning (Isaac), and buries the dead (Moses). Ten centuries later, Maimonides taught that the most profound reason the Torah relates God's merciful attributes is to teach us to imitate divine kindness.Megilat Ruth is the most human of biblical stories; its focus is personal hessed. Yet beneath the surface is the interplay of human and divine kindness. The entire story is made possible by Ruth's magnificent gesture toward Naomi.God responds by setting up Ruth's "accidental" meeting of Boaz. All would end there but for Boaz's generosity toward Ruth. God then reacts by giving Ruth a son, the ancestor of King David and the Messiah – the redeemers of Israel and all humanity. As the midrash explains, "Ruth did her part, Boaz did his part, whereupon God said, 'I must do My part.'" Evidently, to merit divine compassion we must act with hessed toward each other.The stage was thus set for messianic history.Megilat Ruth tells us that one person's act of kindness can have cosmic influence, and that God has an infinite stake in every gesture of human compassion.

While canning a large batch of vegetable soup, I discovered how to cut onions without crying. I placed a small fan adjacent to my cutting board, so the fan blew the onion fumes across the board and away from me.
I can now peel and cut onions all day long and not shed a tear. (Do stay away from the downwind side of the fan, though.)

Bitcoin took some bumps in 2014; what might that mean for the bitcoin ATM? Sam Ditzion of Tremont Capital Group offers his point of view.
The idea behind the development of the ATM was to replace teller operations in a bank branch with electronic devices. But is this all an ATM is capable of?
Don't look for big new ATM trends in 2015; instead, look for the rapid acceleration of emerging technologies and business strategies that made headlines in 2014.

Students who participate in intercollegiate athletics and receive athletic scholarships are not employees covered by federal labor law, says an amicus brief filed July 3 by ACE and four other higher education associations with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).
The brief was filed in support of Northwestern University's (IL) appeal of a March decision by a NLRB regional director to classify the school's football players as employees, and thus allow them to unionize.
ACE was joined on the brief by the Association of Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges; the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities; College and University Professional Association for Human Resources; and the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities.
The ACE brief notes that:
The bottom line, the brief states, is that "to hold that scholarship student-athletes are employees would be an unprecedented intrusion into the educational missions of universities. It would undermine education by impinging on academic freedom and would exacerbate many of the problems critics find with intercollegiate athletics."
In the meantime, the results of an April 25 vote by the players on whether to be represented by the College Athletes Players Association are not being released until the full NLRB decides the case.
Tax Policy

ACE and a group of nine higher education associations sent a letter yesterday to Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) strongly endorsing his American Opportunity Tax Credit Act of 2015, which makes important reforms to the AOTC and Lifetime Learning Credit.

I purchased a 2013 Allegro RED in January of this year from Tom Raper, Richmond IN. After a short trip to become familiar with the motor home, my wife and I embarked on a 4000 mile trip to the West.
In a tribute to the quality of my new motor home, I did not have a single problem in the 4 week trip. Given the complexity and the sometimes rough road conditions, this is quite remarkable. I would like to express my thanks to Tiffin for building a quality vehicle that you can have confidence in.

Dear Tom Raper RVs,
Our experience with Tom Raper has been great. We purchased our first used 1984 pop-up campers from Tom Raper in 1990 and used it until 2006. We traveled all over the country with it, as our children grew up.
We literally wore the springs off of it then purchased a 2280 in 2006 and had several trips west.
We now are upgrading to a Roo. Two sons have purchased Rockwood pop-ups from Tom Raper. We camped together in Colorado this summer.
Tom Raper RVs has given great service to all of us.

I was in the store about six months ago and talked with salesman Dan Eggleston. I told him we were not close to doing anything. Unlike the other salesmen we dealt with at other dealerships Dan still spent a lot of time with us answering all our questions. When we got a little closer we know Dan was our guy. We were blown away with our treatment of the whole staff at Tom Raper in London" When we left we felt like they were all family.

I recently purchased a 2012 Fleetwood Tioga 31N from Tom Raper in Richmond. I wanted to write a letter to express my strong thoughts on both our salesperson, Jordan Marowelli, and with the service we received at your service center. Jordan Marowelli was a joy to work with. He greeted us from the very first day with a smile and a can-do attitude, as we shared with him early on that we would not be looking to purchase an RV for several months, but wanted to ensure that we found just the right one for us. We met Jordan in August of 2013, and it is only because of his courtesy, honesty, and dedication that I decided that I would not go elsewhere during my search, but was determined to make a purchase from him. Jordan met with us upwards of five times before he found the perfect RV for us. Each time he was enthusiastic and spent plenty of time with us: he answered all of our questions and ensured that we were well taken care of. I would recommend Jordan as a salesperson to anyone looking to purchase an RV. From start to finish, Jordan was professional and a pleasure. He even wnt above and beyond his job to join us on a weekend camping adventure and teach us to use our RV before our upcoming three month trip. I can't say enough how much we appreciated this He deserves both praise and recognition for taking the extra mile.
We also thoroughly enjoyed and felt well-taken care of by John and Larry in your service department during our first walk-through. We always enjoyed chatting with john every time we visited the service department.
David Denny JR from Richmond, KY
Just wanted to take an opportunity to say thanks again. As of now my whole experience from the start has been just GREAT. I'm sorry I didn't get to see you before I left yesterday but I was in a hurry. After I got home I realized a few more minutes wouldn't have hurt. I got home at the edge of dark and got settled in just in time. I really appreciate your patience and willingness to give me time to make my decisions and walk me thru all the great options you guys had for me such as pricing, ice maker, iPad ,financing and your friendly staff along with Pete .

The earliest events underlying cardiac induction and morphogenesis remain largely unknown. In the present study, we show that Hensen's node, the organizer of the avian embryo, induces cardiogenesis. Specifically, following heterotopic transplantation, Hensen's node induces ectopic host tissue that expresses two early cardiac markers (cNkx-2.5 and cNkx-2.8), as well as a ventricular marker (VMHC1), but not an atrial marker (AMHC1). Moreover, we examine the potential roles of candidate growth factors known to be secreted by Hensen's node. Our results show that fibroblast growth factors (FGF-2 and FGF-4) when ectopically expressed can initiate cardiac development, inducing host tissue to express the two cardiac transcription factors cNkx-2.5 and cNkx-2.8, as well as the cardiac-restricted structural gene VMHC1, but not AMHC1. In contrast to FGFs, TGFβ family members fail to induce ectopic tissue and expression of cardiac marker genes. We also examined the effects of growth factors on the morphogenesis of the host embryo's heart. Both exogenous FGFs and TGFβ family members perturb normal morphogenesis of the early cardiac tube and alter patterns of ventricular and atria gene expression in characteristic ways. Namely, exogenous FGFs expand areas expressing the ventricular marker VMHC1 at the expense of areas expressing the atrial marker AMHC1. Conversely, exogenous TGFβ1 inhibits expression of VMHC1, expanding AMHC1 expression. We show here that Hensen's node and FGFs induce ectopic expression of cardiac lineage markers, and that FGF and TGFβ family members can modulate early development of the heart. Collectively, these data suggest that the organizer plays a crucial role in cardiac induction and morphogenesis, mediated in part by endogenous members of the FGF and TGFβ families.

Verified Purchase
The pen was a lot more lightweight and flimsy-feeling than I thought it'd be.
(It's not bad after you get accustomed to it) The ink's a beautiful color, and
it writes very thin, if that's what you're looking for. Like others have said
about the Pilot Juice 0.38, it's a little scratchy compared to other 0.38 pens.
I have yet to try the Juice 0.5, which I hope will not write the same way.
Aesthetically, it's a really pretty pen, (and one of my friends even commented
that it looked like it actually had juice inside it.) I like this pen, but it's
not one of my favorites, I guess.

Left Lane: Norman Wilding Runs 12.338/71.28, Now #3 Right Lane: Vicky Fanning Runs 5.790/264.03, Now #2 Wilding was off the throttle by the 100' mark. Right Lane: Phil Burkart No Time, Now #4 Burkart broke after the burnout and had to be pushed out of the lane. Left Lane: John Lawson Runs 7.056/126.92, Now #3 Right Lane: Cory Lee Runs 12.054/70.29, Now #4 Lee was heading for the centerline almost immediately, while Lawson drifted toward it at mid-track. Left Lane: Dale Creasy Jr. Runs 5.233/276.35, Now #1 Right Lane: Tommy Johnson Jr. Runs 5.331/266.21, Now #2 Johnson had a good pass going until he pitched a blower belt near the finish. Creasy was mixing up the cylinders on both sides of the engine going through the traps. Left Lane: Cristen Powell Runs 5.035/278.52, Now #1 Right Lane: Tim Wilkerson Runs 12.166/72.90, Now #8 Wilkerson lifted the front on the launch, brought it down hard, then lost traction. Powell was skating around a little on the top end of the track, but still managed to make a decent pass. Left Lane: Gary Densham Runs 5.057/289.57, Now #2 Densham had a trouble-free solo pass on this lap. Left Lane: Al Hofmann Runs 5.076/288.27, Now #4 Right Lane: Frank Pedregon Runs 4.971/282.60, Now #1 Hofmann was fishtailing at half track but he stayed on it all the way down.

Left Lane: Scotty Cannon Runs 5.098/283.85, Now #8 Right Lane: Jim Epler Runs 6.761/113.35, Now #13 Cannon had finished backing up from his burnout and was ready to stage before Epler pulled to the line.

Left Lane: Tony Pedregon Runs 5.143/222.91, Now #10 Right Lane: Ron Capps Runs 5.018/288.83, Now #4 There was a puff of smoke out of the back of Capps' car at the finish line, but he had no other problems on this one. I couldn't see anything wrong with Pedregon's car, but he definitely slowed on the top end. Left Lane: Jerry Toliver Runs 5.082/286.13, Now #10 Right Lane: John Force Runs 5.013/292.96, Now #4 Toliver was dropping cylinders going through the lights.

I have a rectifier with a broken guide pin. Is it safe to use in your 300B amp, Glenn? Anyone?
As long as the tube is inserted into the socket correctly, there will be no problem. I have a few tubes with a broken guide pin and have had no issues.
Yes it will be fine.
You should be able to see were the guide pin was and line it up with the keyway on the socket.
Then you can get one of these and put it on the tube and make things easier
Really nice C!
Thanks, U

(AP Photo/LM Otero) ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) Prince Fielder ended his Texas home run drought, and Robbie Ross finally got some help from the offense as a starter.Fielder and Kevin Kouzmanoff hit back-to-back homers, Ross limited Seattle to five singles in seven-plus innings and the Texas Rangers beat the Mariners 5-0 Tuesday night.Fielder ended a 13-game homerless streak to start the season with a line drive to right-center field off former Texas first-round pick Blake Beavan (0-1) to lead off the second inning. Two pitches later, Kouzmanoff went deep to left.Told before the game that he was a game away from tying the longest drought to start a season in his career, Fielder casually figured it was about time for a long ball.''I was just messing around,'' said Fielder, in his first season with the Rangers after a trade that sent fan favorite Ian Kinsler to Detroit. ''But I guess it worked.''The Mariners didn't get a runner past second base in their third shutout loss in a week.''Probably the first night where I was probably a little disappointed in our approach a little bit,'' Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said. ''I thought we should have done better.''Kouzmanoff also had two doubles, the second one driving in two runs to put the Rangers up 4-0 in the eighth inning. Fielder scored from first base after he was intentionally walked following a pair of strikeouts.Ross (1-0), a former reliever, got his first win as a starter in his third try as the Rangers recorded their third straight win by shutout and fourth in seven victories overall.Fielder's homer was the first run the Rangers scored with Ross on the mound. He had gone 12 1-3 innings without Texas scoring, tops in the majors.''It's funny because I'm just trying to go out there and do the best I can to keep it close because I know we're going to start scoring,'' said Ross, who has allowed two earned runs in 18 innings as a starter.Ross struck out Abraham Almonte and Brad Miller to start the game, but didn't have another strikeout. After Robinson Cano and Corey Hart followed with singles, Ross ended the first inning on Stefen Romero's groundout to short - the first of seven straight outs on grounders and 16 overall.The left-hander didn't walk anybody in 7 2-3 innings, but hit Miller with a pitch twice. The second one made Cano the potential tying run in the eighth, but Ross got him on a flyout to center before Alexi Ogando replaced him.''I think he was able to get in on us and I guess kind of mix it up,'' Miller said. ''We really just didn't string together our good at-bats often, but credit to him.''Beavan was called up from Triple-A Tacoma to fill in for rookie left-hander James Paxton, who is out with a strained muscle in his back. He gave up six hits - the other four besides the homers were singles - in four innings with one strikeout. He came out for Dominic Leone because of shoulder soreness.The right-hander who grew up in nearby Irving spent most of last season with Tacoma after losing his spot in the rotation after two starts. It was his first start since April 10, 2013, and first appearance since a relief outing last July 9.NOTES: It will be a battle of aces Wednesday night when Seattle's Felix Hernandez facing Texas' Yu Darvish. The Japanese right-hander is the first AL starter since Hernandez in 2007 to begin the season with two starts of at least seven shutout innings in April. Darvish lost to Hernandez twice during his rookie season in 2012. They didn't face each other last year. ... The Rangers had multiple homers in a game for the first time this season. They went deep just twice in their first seven home games. ... The Mariners had a double play that went down as a routine 6-4-3, but was far from it. The ball caromed off shortstop Miller's glove straight to Cano just as he was getting to second base, and Cano made the easy throw to first. Promoted Stories Comments More MLB

So are the Klingons a playable race or not?
Disclaimer: I am completely new to this game. I wasnt in beta and just bought a retail copy yesterday.
I have seen references to Klingon missions in other threads, but I cant find anything on the main website that says you have the option of playing as a Klingon. It gives some info about their faction, but thats it. In the game itself, I was never given an option of making a Klingon character...just Federation. Whats the deal?

MarineMax Vacations takes delivery of the highly innovative new 48 foot Power Catamarans for their BVI charter fleet. Sino Eagle is proud to announce that the first two hulls of the new, custom designed Aquila 48 power catamarans have successfully completed sea trials and have been delivered to MarineMax Vacations.
The Aquila 48 was developed to be an exceptionally comfortable cruising boat as a result of the integration of advanced technology at the forefront of all design and build decisions. From the hull shape that was fully tank tested to the selection of materials and manufacturing process, every consideration went into creating an unprecedented, pure-bred power catamaran unlike any other in its class.
"We are thrilled with the results of the sea trials and the delivery of these first two hulls to MarineMax Vacations" said Frank Xiong, CEO of Sino Eagle Group. "Bringing not only a new product to the market, but more importantly launching a new brand of power catamarans definitely requires the worlds top talent and we are honored to have MarineMax of the USA, J&J design group of Slovenia and our own talented team in the USA and China to collaborate and bring this innovative catamaran to market".
Our unique, state-of-the-art manufacturing process ensures that all components, including the hull and deck, bulkheads and interior modules, are resin infused using a high quality vinylester resin in a fully controlled environment. This process not only has huge structural and weight advantages for the vessel, but is also the most environmentally friendly process for fiberglass yacht construction. The boat has been built to EC Certification, Category A which is the recognized International standard for recreational boats.
After delivering the first two Aquila 48's, Lex Raas, President of MarineMax Vacations was elated "This time last year we shared with you the conceptual drawings of a power catamaran to be designed to elevate the boating experience of a power catamaran under 50'. This year, we are extremely pleased to show you the final product of that concept. The Aquila 48 is poised raise the standards in the power boat charter market, and one only has to step aboard to see how this pure-bred power catamaran differentiates itself and will make MarineMax Vacations the obvious choice for a self drive or captained power charter experience in the British Virgin Islands"
With the concept first announced last year at the Miami International Boat Show, now one year later, the Aquila 48, known as the MarineMax 484, will be presented to the media and public for the first time at the 2013 Miami International Boat Show from February 14th to 18th at the Trawler Fest display on Collins Avenue. Initially, the Aquila 48 will be available for charter from the MarineMax Vacations charter base in the British Virgin islands as well as in their Charter Ownership Program. Additionally, a private ownership version will be unveiled at the major Boat Shows this Fall.

The A Song of Praise (ASOP) Finals of the Asia-Oceania Division will hear 25 new songs of praise come August this year, the most number of entries in its history yet. Australia will be the host country for the music festival.
The song entries are fruits of the recently concluded District Eliminations in Perth, Australia on April 25th, in Singapore on April 28th, and in Hongkong on May 1st this year.
Representatives from Brunei, Papua New Guinea, Vietnam, Malaysia, South Korea, and China traveled to said locations to present their songs on stage. ASOP Asia-Oceania Secretariat indicated that it received 47 entries in total for this edition of the songwriting and music festival.
Members in said countries monitored the proceedings via live video streaming where members also participated in an online voting for People's Choice awardee.
Winners of the Division Finals in Melbourne, Australia in August will represent Asia-Oceania in the Year End Finals of the bi-annual ASOP Music Festival in Pampanga, Philippines. Conceptualized by MCGI Leaders Bro. Eli Soriano and Bro. Daniel Razon, the ASOP Music Festival seeks the best original songs of praise made by members Church-wide.
Last year, the Asia-Oceania Division brought home the Song of the Mid-Year and Year-End titles with song entries "Alabok na Sisidlan" (Dust Vessel) by Bro. Pablo Buan and "Unang Pag-ibig" (First Love) by Bro. Enrique Libiran.
