What Jesus is teaching is a Way of Life. We can have the same relationship Jesus has with the Father, the intimate communion the disciples witnessed when they came upon Him prayer. The same relationship they witnesses as they walked with Him daily. We also walk with Him daily.From this, and the other accounts of the same exchange, we have been given the beautiful form prayer we were taught as children. It is the prayer we pray at every Holy Mass, the Our Father. However, Jesus is teaching us all much more than one form of prayer, he is revealing to his friends and followers the relationship which is itself the very heart of prayer. Lord, Teach us to Pray.
When the Spirit dwells in a person, from the moment in which that person has become prayer, he never leaves him. For the Spirit himself never ceases to pray in him. Whether the person is asleep or awake, prayer never from then on departs from his soul. Whether he is eating or drinking or sleeping or whatever else he is doing, even in deepest sleep, the fragrance of prayer rises without effort in hid heart. Prayer never again deserts him. (Isaac of Ninevah)

CHESAPEAKE,VA (Catholic Online) - The Gospel proclaimed at the Liturgy of the Catholic Church today is excerpted from St. Luke's account of the beautiful exchange between the disciples and Jesus where they ask Him to teach them how to pray:
"Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray just as John taught his disciples.
"He said to them, When you pray, say: Father, hallowed be your name, your Kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread and forgive us our sins for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us, and do not subject us to the final test." (Luke 11:1-4)
From this, and the other accounts of the same exchange, we have been given the beautiful form prayer we were taught as children. It is the prayer we pray at every Holy Mass, the Our Father.
However, Jesus is teaching us all much more than one form prayer. He is revealing to his friends and followers the relationship which is the very heart of prayer.
Jesus sets forth the relational framework within which life itself can become an ongoing dialogue of prayer. The Our Father reveals the path for every one of us to living in a continual communion with God.
Following this account, Jesus tells the disciples a parable concerning one type of prayer, persevering prayer for needs. (Luke 11:1-13) He instructs them throughout His public ministry concerning various types of prayer.
However, He Himself is Prayer.
In His continual communion with the Father, He opens the Way to the Father. His entire time with the disciples is an instruction in Prayer. He shows them the pattern of living in such a continual communion with the Father. He then invites them - and he invites us - into that communion of love which He has with the Father, in the Holy Spirit. This is prayer.
Through His saving Incarnation, His Life, Death, Resurrection and Ascension, Jesus also removes the impediment to our being able to enter into that communion. He makes it possible for us to begin living in that communion in the here and now. That occurs through grace.
We are invited to cultivate lifestyles of prayer which lead us into an ever deepening communion with the Lord. This kind of communion is available to all of us, no matter what our state in life or specific vocation.
Through prayer, we learn the path to the peace we long for, even in the midst of the turbulence which is so common in daily life; a peace which comes from such a communion with the Father - Our Father - in the Son and through the Holy Spirit.
After the Resurrection, the Apostle Paul, who had not walked with the Lord during His earthly ministry but was, even so, a witness to the Resurrection, writes these compelling words to the early Christians:
"Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. In all circumstances give thanks, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus. Do not quench the Spirit. (1 Thess. 5:16-19)
He wrote those words to the early Christians in Greece who did not live lives of ease, in any sense of the word. They had families, occupations, and struggles, beyond what many of us could imagine. They also suffered greatly for their faith.
Yet, he instructed them to Pray without ceasing. Did he really mean it? I believe that he did. He lived it and wanted the same gift for all those who bore the name Christian entrusted to his pastoral care.
The older I get, the simpler life gets. That does not mean it is easy. I speak of spiritual simplicity, the kind of attitude which gets right to the root of what really matters. I absolutely believe that Paul meant exactly what he said to the Thessalonians - and that his words are important to those of us who bear the name Christian today.
We can pray without ceasing as well.
Prayer is an ongoing dialogue which opens up an intimate communion with God, Father Son and Holy Spirit. Prayer can become continual, as we learn to live in the Lord.
God fashioned men and women as the crown of His creation, creating us in His Image, for this kind of loving, relational conversation of life with Him. At the heart of understanding what it means to be created in His Image is to understand the immense gift of human freedom and what has happened to our capacity to choose. Our freedom is patterned after God's freedom. Love is never coerced, it is freely given.
However, our relationship with God was broken, separated and wounded through the first sin, the sin of origins or what is called theologically original sin. That sin, like all sin since, is, at its root, a misuse of freedom infected by pride and self sufficiency.
Our ability to exercise our freedom rightly, to live in His Image by directing our capacity for free choice always toward the good and true , was impeded through the fall. Our freedom was fractured.
The Cross of Jesus Christ is the only splint capable of healing that fracture.
The Good News is that through Jesus Christ, the Way has now been opened for us to have an even fuller communion with God than our first parents, one that is restored through His Incarnation, Saving life, Death and Resurrection.
In Jesus Christ we are being re-created, re-fashioned and redeemed. He comes to live in all who make a place for Him within the center of their lives, the place where they make their fundamental choices, what the Bible calls the heart. This making a place is the essence of Christian prayer. It is not about doing, but about being, in communion with the Trinity.(See, e.g. John 14:23)
The Lord invites us to freely choose to respond to His continual invitations to love now every day, every moment. We find our fulfillment as human persons by entering into that kind of relationship. This is the meaning and purpose of life itself - to commune with God.
As we grow in faith through our participation in the life of grace, lived out in the Church, our capacity to respond to His loving invitation grows, through prayer.
Prayer is the pathway to that peace the Lord promised, which the world cannot give - and the world cannot take away. " Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." (John 14:27)
Prayer is about falling in love with the living God.
Isaac of Ninevah was an early eighth century monk, Bishop and theologian. For centuries he was mostly revered in the Eastern Christian Church for his writings on prayer. In the last century the beauty of his insights on prayer are being embraced once again by both lungs, East and West, of the Church. He wrote these words in one of his many treatises on Prayer:
"When the Spirit dwells in a person, from the moment in which that person has become prayer, he never leaves him. For the Spirit himself never ceases to pray in him. Whether the person is asleep or awake, prayer never from then on departs from his soul. Whether he is eating or drinking or sleeping or whatever else he is doing, even in deepest sleep, the fragrance of prayer rises without effort in hid heart. Prayer never again deserts him.
"At every moment of his life, even when it appears to stop, it is secretly at work in him continuously, one of the Fathers, the bearers of Christ, says that prayer is the silence of the pure. For their thoughts are divine motions. The movements of the heart and the intellect that have been purified are the voices full of sweetness with which such people never cease to sing in secret to the hidden God."
Jesus opens up -to you and me- a full communion with God the Father through living in Him. We are sons and daughters in the Son.
Jesus leads us out of the emptiness and despair that is the rotted fruit of narcissism, nihilism and materialism. When we enter into the dialogue of prayer, we can begin to experience a progressive, dynamic and intimate relationship with the Father, in Jesus, by grace.
The Holy Spirit begins to transform us from within as we yield to the Father's will and cooperate with grace, the dynamic life of God which is mediated to us through the Son.
As Isaac explained in this beautiful writing, we really can become prayer as we empty ourselves in order to be filled with the very life of God. Through prayer, daily life can then take on new meaning. It becomes a classroom of communion. In that classroom we learn the truth about who we are - and who we are becoming - in Jesus. Through prayer we receive new glasses through which we see the true landscape of life. Through prayer darkness is dispelled and the path of progress is illuminated.
Through prayer we can begin to understand why this communion seems so elusive at times; as we struggle with our own disordered appetites, and live in a manner at odds with the beauty and order of the creation within which we dwell only to find a new beginning whenever we confess our sin and return to our first love. Prayer opens us up to Revelation, expands our capacity to comprehend truth and equips us to change.
Through prayer we are increasingly drawn by Love into a deepening relationship with Jesus whose loving embrace on the hill of Golgotha bridged heaven with earth; His relationship with His Father is opened now to us; the same Spirit that raised Him from the dead begins to give us new life as we are converted, transfigured and made new.
Through prayer, heavenly wisdom is planted in the field of our hearts and we experience a deepening communion with the Trinitarian God. We become, in the words of the Apostle Peter partakers of the divine nature. (2 Peter 1:4) That participation will only be fully complete when we are with Him in the fullness of His embrace, in Resurrected Bodies in a New Heaven and a New earth, but it begins now, in the grace of this present moment.
The beloved disciple John became prayer. He writes in the letter he penned in his later years:
"See what love the Father has bestowed on us that we may be called the children of God. Yet so we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him. Beloved, we are God's children now; what we shall be has not yet been revealed. We do know that when it is revealed we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. Everyone who has this hope based on him makes himself pure, as he is pure. Everyone who commits sin commits lawlessness, for sin is lawlessness." (1 John 3:1-4)
As we become prayer our daily life is revealed as a field of choice and we are capacitated by grace to choose the more excellent way of love of which the great Apostle Paul wrote. (1 Cor. 13) Pondering the implications of the exercise of our human freedom becomes a regular part of our life, as we learn to examine our conscience, repent of our sin and become joyful penitents following after Jesus.
Prayer provides the environment for such ongoing recollection as it exposes the darkness and helps us surrender it to the light of Love, the Living God who is dwelling within us.
Becoming prayer is possible for all Christians, no matter their state in life or vocation, because God holds nothing back from those whom He loves. This relationship of communion is initiated by Him. Our part is to respond. That response should flow from a heart that beats in surrendered love, in the process of being freed from the entanglements that weigh us down.
The God who is Love hungers for the communion of sons and daughters - and we hunger for communion with Him - because He made us this way. Nothing else will satisfy. The early Church Father Origen once wrote: Every spiritual being is, by nature, a temple of God, created to receive into itself the glory of God.
We were made in the image of God and are now being recreated into His likeness in Jesus Christ through grace. As we become prayer, that likeness begins to emerge. We give ourselves over to Jesus, the One who gave Himself to us. We learn to cry out with Jesus Christ, Abba Father.
No longer alienated from God, we begin to participate in the inner life of God who now dwells within us. We also dwell in Him through His Spirit. This dwelling in God is prayer. It is not about doing or getting but about being, becoming, receiving, giving, and loving. We will live the way we love and we will love the way we pray.
The late Fr. Henri Nouwen, understood the intimacy of prayer and the call to live in God. He wrote these words in his work entitled Lifesigns:
"Jesus, in whom the fullness of God dwells, has become our home by making his home in us he allows us to make our home in him. By entering into the intimacy of our innermost self he offers us the opportunity to enter into his own intimacy with God."
By choosing us as his preferred dwelling place, he invites us to choose him as our preferred dwelling place. This is the mystery of the incarnation. Here we come to see what discipline in the spiritual life means. It means a gradual process of coming home to where we belong and listening there to the voice which desires our attention. Home is the place where that first love dwells and speaks gently to us. Prayer is the most concrete way to make our home in God.
We are His contemporary disciples. We need to ask Him the same question, Lord, Teach us to Pray, as we approach the altar to receive Him, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity, into our very selves. Then, filled with His Divine Life within us, we too can learn how to become prayer by learning to make our home in God.
What Jesus is teaching us in this Gospel account from Luke is a really about a New Way of Life. We can have the same relationship Jesus has with the Father, the intimate communion the disciples witnessed when they came upon Him prayer. The same relationship they witnesses as they walked with Him daily.
We also walk with Him daily. He has been raised from the dead and He is with us!
Lord, Teach us to Pray.

You need to be able to understand the behavior of Google - the way it's using metrics to rank websites. You need to be analytical enough to analyze your competition and see where can you beat it. Above all, you need to be open to accept changes required to optimize website effectively. If you can think out of the box, and have useful skills then it will be a lot easier to optimize, promote website and make it big.
Need some time to handle deferred joining date by three big IT companies.
If your work is still pending, I'll soon get in touch.
1901gt (7 February, 2009)
I'm not saying that is what is at work here. However, I will say that there is no black magic at work. The black magic I was referring to is involved in the voodoo ritual or rubbing of the monitor prior to optimizing a site that might occur. Everything from praying, to summoning the demons in hell to insure your site ranks above all else.
You'd be surprised how much seo occurs by complete accident.
Jer - OWNER HostDrive.Com and HostingLizard.com
Personally that's the approach I'm taking now, trying to build my own network in the travel niche, and not just profiles on travel review sites, I'm actually trying to build a bunch of sites within the travel niche that link to each other, but at the moment my half dozen sites just aren't enough to compete for my own sites although they do wonders for my clients who have few backlinks at all.
Staying on top of SEO is the big challenge, or rather correcting previous efforts at SEO. I'm forever removing keywords from pages I set up years ago and now look like spam, rewriting titles to be more natural etc - based on monitoring the competition and google algorithms
this is good, and I do the same, but it's way easier if at least one of the sites genuinely attract links naturally from outside - it takes ages and lots of hard work to achieve but it is a very happy day when you can leave a site to its own devices because people are just linking to it naturally and you can forget link-building, directory submissions etc.trying to build my own network in the travel niche
Understanding is simple, implementing is not
SEO is nothing related to web standards. Every search engine have their algorithm and you need to follow them in order to produce better results and get good rank in search engines.
Algorithms do get change on regular interval, algorithms can be even change in a day two times and none of the web standards change so frequently. They are updated but not varied.
Yeah, seo is easy buy you should be aware about the tips and tricks. You've done the basics or even below that(don't know, am not sure about it still) of seo. It's wide..very wide topic.

propagate long stem carnation....how ?
I recieved a beautiful long stem carnation for Valentines day and would like to know if I can start a new plant with it. If so what is the best method. I dont know the name of the carnation but it is pink around the edges and white in the middle with streaks of pink in the white. I have it in a vase with plain water right now. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Just as I was saying 'You don't bring me flowers anymore', my hubby surprised me with long stem carnations for valentine day.
I wasn't thinking of trying to propagate them until I read your post. What a great idea!
Here is what I did ;-
1- Cut off two inches at the bottom end and throw away. Put them back in the water.
2- Prepare appropriate medium, I potted them up in a 4 inch plastic container filled about 3/4 with moist medium, water thoroughly.
3- I noticed these carnations have extra long internodes so I would only use a two leave node with 1/2 - 1 inch stem attached below node,
aided with rooting hormone, stick in the soil with one node barely even with the soil level.
PS.I stick bottom end into the soil, ha -ha.
4- Firm Cuttings.
5- Water thoroughly and set them in a shady location. Can you tell I am a water fanatic!
Nothing ventured, nothing gained, often experimenting on your own is the best way to learn, try it and keep your fingers crossed.
A few years ago I lived in an area near the coast with many carnation greenhouses where the long stemed cut flowers were grown and packed. These carnations are grown between strings in greenhouse rows that support the stems as they get tall. As you might imagine this is a labor intense industry. In the 1980s many carnations started to arrive from south America at the same time the cost of natural gas used to fire the steam boilers to heat the greenhouses, when up dramaticly. Most of the growers had to give up. I do not believe the species grown accounted for the long stems, only tactics used in the growing caused the long internodes. Al
i understand the sentimentality ... but in all reality.. the form of the cut flower plant is not a form that will do well in your garden ...
i would press the flowers in a big book .. and find other garden appropriate plants ....
you can barely find a decent carnation that stands up properly to begin with.. let alone one with 2 foot stems .. that will stand up .. so then there is staking ... etc ...
I'll be interested in knowing how your experiments turn out, too. In case it doesn't work, and what you desire is to grow similar flowers with that wonderful clove fragrance, pinks and dianthus barbatus are easily grown.
Maiden Pink (Dianthus deltoides), Cheddar Pink (D. gratianopolitanus), and Cottage Pink (D. plumarius). Bloom time: late spring. Pinks are a favorite perennial for use in rock gardens and as an edging plant for the bed or border. The low, spreading growth habit, grayish-green foliage, and fragrant carnationlike flowers make them welcome additions to the garden. Look for 'Bath's Pink,' 'Firewitch' or 'Itsaul White' among others.
My personal favorite is Sweet William (dianthus barbatus). Easily grown from seed, it's a biennial or short lived perennial. The individual florets form a ball-shaped head and the stems are long enough for small bouquets. Sweet William remains green over the winter here, and should for you, too, in TX and AZ.
Let us know how the cuttings turn out.
The method mentioned above is one of the recommended propagation methods on the web site below.
The stem leaves are also nodes along the flower stem. Cuttings from that stem with just 2 nodes should sprout roots, and generate a new plant. Without the special growing conditions you may not get the wonderful long stems, or the large flowers, but it will be a clone, with the same flower as the original.

Possible to add sink to laundry room?
We have a laundry room that has your standard washer connections with a drain in the wall. As we are turning our thoughts to remodeling this room, we started to wonder if it might be possible to add a sink?
How difficult or costly would it be (with regards to plumbing) to add a sink to this area that currently only has the standard hot/cold and drain connections present?
Thank you!
As another poster noted, adding a sink should be very easy, as long as it's on the same wall as the washer. We're in the middle of a remodel. We asked our contractor to rough in a water and drain line next to the washer. All he had to do was to tap into the existing lines (both drain and water supply). I'd say it took no more than an hour to do the work.
It really depends upon how old the house is and what is there now.
years ago a laundry standpipe was a 1-1/2" line..Now the code requires the laundry standpipe to be a 2" line.
If you have a 2" line you could add a sink easily but if you have an older home with a 1-1/2" line the line is already maxed out at 3DFU's(drainage fixture units) so you cannot add any additional load..If its a 2" line that is good for up to 6DFU's. A washing machine is rated at 3DFU's and a laundry sink is rated at 3DFU's so they could be combined on a 2" line.
I'd love to add a laundry sink in my place and may well do, using the existing connections there, but the stupid builders made no allowance for it, room-wise - I may have to try and find an ultraslim one, or, it's occured to me, if I buy a stainless one, I might be able to get it cut and shut (welded) at a stainless fabrication place - I might be able to shoehorn one 8-10 inches front to back...

SEATTLE (AP) — An 87-year-old Seattle real-estate developer and his wife, arrested in France after 16 months on the lam, were indicted Thursday on dozens of charges of bankruptcy fraud and money laundering.
The 43-count grand jury indictment accuses Michael Mastro and his wife, Linda, of fraudulently transferring interest in their $15 million home in the tony Seattle suburb of Medina; failing to disclose a bank account that contained hundreds of thousands of dollars; and lying about the whereabouts of two huge diamonds valued at $1.4 million, all to conceal those assets from creditors in a bankruptcy proceeding.
It also alleges the couple withdrew more than $760,000 from their secret account to pay for a variety of personal expenses, including payment on their Bentley and Rolls Royce automobiles.
The Mastros vanished 16 months ago, after a judge ordered them to turn over the 27.8- and 15.9-carat diamonds. French police arrested the pair Wednesday in Annecy, a lake town near the Swiss border in southeastern France.
"Those who flaunt the law and ignore our legal process will be held to account," First Assistant U.S. Attorney Annette L. Hayes said in a written statement. "Thanks to the unrelenting efforts of law enforcement both here and abroad, the Mastros have been arrested and will face the charges that the grand jury returned in their indictment today."
Michael Mastro's lawyer, James Frush, said Thursday the charges simply rehash allegations made during the bankruptcy proceeding. And, he suggested, if it was such serious criminal activity, the government could have charged them long ago.
"This is an attempt to criminalize behavior that occurred in this bankruptcy proceeding and that occurs commonly in others," Frush said. "There's a real lack of evidence that this was part of a scheme to defraud."

XP Taskbar is 'shivering' all the time?
Likes # 0
Posted April 19, 2012 at 12:04PM
Bought a refurb DELL D630 and whilst doing the usual updates I noticed the taskbar was shivering a bit like a TV picture does when showing signs of inteference?
It does it all the time even when the laptop is just idle although the rest of the screen is fine?
Any ideas??

Is the Taskbar 'locked' when this happens? Right click on an empty area of the Taskbar and if it is 'unlocked' set it to 'locked'.
If this fails let us know.

Yes the taskbar is already locked. Have tried unlocking it and re-locking it but it makes no difference??

It does seem to be related to disc activity I feel?

I have never seen this problem, but a search has revealed similar problems associated with bad connections between the motherboard and screen and between hardware and the motherboard; this seems to link in with your comment that it "seems to be related to disc activity".
I would suggest two options:
- If you bought it recently and it is under warranty, take it back.
- If it's out of warranty, check all connections, especially those of the HDD.

A interesting point about "related to disc activity", but at the same time you mention that "it does it all the time".
Because on occasions I have a similar problem, which seems to indicate a conflict within the program I am using. Normally this comes about, while I am listening to a cd, and at the same time using the computer. As its only occasional, I haven't really bothered about finding a solution.
The other problem, could be something more sinister of a failing part, so it might pay to see if the 'shivering' expands.
Possibly nothing to do with your problem, but just a thought?.

ISO Jello Shooters Recipe...Halloween Party Help
Hi, we were just invited to a Halloween party and want to bring these. Can someone give me a recipe and/or instructions on how to make these. I have had them at a local club but can't figure out what kind of alcohol is in them and how to make them. Thanks!
Jenn :0)
Here you go! This is a great site. It has just thousands of recipes. If the one I gave the link to is not what you are looking for, then just go to the beverage heading, then alcoholic, then do a search for jello and you will come up with lots of different versions. Enjoy!
Here is a link that might be useful: Jello Shooters
I have a really easy good recipe that comes out more like a jell-o jigglers so you can make it in a pan and cut into squares instead of having to use little cups:
1 box jell-o
1 packet Knox
1 c. alcohol (I use mostly vodka and maybe some Chambord or Apple Pucker depending on jell-o flavour)
Make Jell-o as per the recipe, substituting 1 c. alcohol for 1 c. of cold water. (don't forget the Knox).
Very easy and always a hit.
Here is a tip, I always make them in nutcups, those small paper cups that can be found in party supply stores with the paper goods. They are sometimes called souffle cups. And like Meredith recommeded, the Knox unflavored gelatin is a must!

Tulips/Hyacinths sprouting before in ground? Please help!
Hi --
Was planning on planting some tulip/hyacinth bulbs this weekend, but just wanted to check on something first; these have been stored in the basement for a few weeks, and when I checked on them yesterday, some of the hyacinth bulbs have a green shoot coming out of the top, and some of the tulips have a pale shoot coming up -- my questions would be:
- have I waited too long? can they be planted??
- maybe they got too warm in the basement?
Any help would be greatly appreciated....thanks!
It will help to know specifically where you live. Here in my Deep South Zone 7 I must chill my tulips for 8 to 10 weeks before planting. They need this process if they are to bloom. The sprouts are not great, but in the end, they won't hurt anything. Go on and plant the hyacinths in the ground as soon as you can. (I always count out the 8 to 10 weeks on my calendar from the day I put the tulips into the fridge. That way I don't forget when to plant them.)
Keep the tulip bulbs away from fruit. The ethylene gas the fruits emit will kill the tulip bloooms.
I would advise you to prechill the tulips, unless someone from your are comes on here and says otherwise. It certainly will not hurt them....
You will have to watch sharp for a day to plant them in January. Or if worse came to worst you could plant them in pots then.
Grape hyacinths normally begin growing in fall; if that's what you have, they are trying to put out their fall flush of leaves.
Regular hyacinths, along with some other bulbs, normally begin growing underground shoots in fall that gradually work their way towards the surface. They are doing exactly what they are supposed to do!
donnabaskets - I'm fascinated by the pre-chilling thing. It's something I never heard of until I started frequenting Garden Web. It's not mentioned at all in UK gardening circles unless you are talking about forcing bulbs for indoors. If you are in z7 and I'm in z8-9 (although the US zones don't really work over here) why doesn't anyone in the UK need to pre-chill? I've tried to check the actual figures for how long and how cold tulips need and I can't find anything. Can you help?

Award winning film director Bill Maloney is refused entrance to the Inner London Family Proceedings Court to support a young couple who were having their 10 month old baby girl taken away from them.
CAUTION: Some strong language!
This is yet another tragic example of the British authorities taking children from young parents right at the point of birth.
Reported recently in The Times: Reforms to open up the family courts to the media are at risk of being scuppered by mounting opposition from senior judges, lawyers, children's groups and MPs, The Times has learnt.
Jack Straw wants to build on ground-breaking moves last year to open the family courts so that media reporting is not thwarted by the current wide ranging restrictions. But a second set of measures, designed to allow media reports on evidence and naming of witnesses, has run into heavy opposition.

Fourth time lucky for Namibia?
ESPNscrum Staff
September 20, 2011

Wales face Namibia for the fourth time at international level in New Plymouth on Monday - with the Welwitschias boasting a surprisingly competitive record against the Welsh. Although Wales have won all three of the previous encounters between the two nations, their margins of victory have been relatively tight.
When the two sides met for the first time in June 1990 in Windhoek Wales struggled to a 18-9 victory over Namibia, who finished the game with 14 men after the sending off of Andre Stoop. Fullback Paul Thorburn scored 15 points in the game to save Wales from defeat.
The two sides played again seven days later at the same location. And Namibia pushed Wales even closer as they came within five points of a famous upset. Wales scored four tries with two from Arthur Jones as well as one from Owain Williams and a penalty try. But the accurate kicking of Jaco Coetzee and Shaun McCulley - along with two tries from Ben Swartz and one from Gerhard Mans - ensured a nervy day for the Welsh who eventually won 34-30.
Wales' biggest winning margin over the Southern Africa side came in June 1993 when they ran in five tries to record a 38-23 victory.

Good trailer, not sure about Pa Kent saying the maybe he should have left the school bus though.That "Maybe" sounded cutoff in the trailer as if it was part of a larger sentence like Maybe that was God's plan. Maybe it was their time. Maybe you should have but you can't save everyone. I think that was a clever edit to misdirect the actual conversation since the clips on the screen were independent of the audio.

By Robin Emmott
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - A small passenger plane crashed at Belgium's Charleroi airport on Saturday, killing five people and closing the international hub used by Ryanair for six hours just as thousands of people were due to go away on holiday.
The aircraft, a Cessna, had problems on takeoff and tried to return to Charleroi to make an emergency landing but crashed on the side of the runway, airport officials said.
"There was a problem on takeoff and they tried to come back, but unfortunately the plane crashed," said Melissa Milioto, an airport spokeswoman. "Five people were killed."
Firefighters sprayed water on the plane that was reduced to a wreck of twisted metal, with only the tail still visible, TV images showed.
The airport was closed immediately after the crash, which happened just before 10 a.m. (0900 GMT), and reopened at 4 p.m. after an investigation on the runway was completed.
Ryanair, which is the heaviest user of the airport, said it cancelled four departures and diverted inbound flights due to the accident that happened at the start of the Belgian school half-term holiday, when many families go abroad to ski.
Charleroi airport, also known as Brussels South Charleroi, serves as the country's second international airport after Brussels' Zaventem airport and expects to handle 140,000 passengers over the half-term holiday period.
Airport officials said the five killed were three young children, their mother and grandfather - who was also the pilot of the private aircraft - and were all Belgian nationals.
Belgian Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo offered his condolences to the family of the victims via his official Twitter account.

President Barack Obama and 2012 GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney employed very different cable ad strategies in the final weeks of last year's election season, and Obama's more sophisticated use of targeting in key states helped deliver a victor in November, analysts say. Cable ad spending by the campaigns more than quadrupled to $650 million in 2012. "My impression was there was much more examination and analytics done with the Obama campaign. The Romney campaign had the same rigid schedule in every state," said Timothy Kay, political director for NCC Media.

Labor Day of 2002: dozens of termites were swarming in my 2nd bathroom. Rental office was called and they sent up a maintenance man with a can of spray. I told them I wanted a professional exterminator, and one was sent a few days later. He found termites and extensive wood damage on the balcony, which he treated (sprayed). He told me that the whole building needed to be tented. Wood was replaced by landlord. I learned that numerous other residents (in my bldg. and others) had found termites inside their apts., which were sprayed by apt.'s maintenance man.
Fall of 2003: a kick-out hole was discovered in living room which means termites are inside wall. Maintenance man was sent to spray and patch hole. I've noticed several areas damaged by termites throughout the complex and seen lots of balcony railings replaced the last two years.
Labor Day of 2004: return from out of town to find that termites have again swarmed in 2nd bathroom. Find them throughout the apt. (alive) for the next few days.
I obviously need to find another place to live because the owners seem to be contented with "band-aid fixes." My main concern is my furniture. What if termites have gotten inside and I don't find out until after I've moved? Can I request the owner to "microwave" my furniture now?
Thanks for your response, lazygardens.
We have a lovely species of termite in California called drywood termites, which doesn't require a water source (like the subterranean termites you're probably familiar with). Drywood termites are commonly found in furniture. I talked to Orkin when I was visiting family in Georgia (they were doing a termite inspection at my Mom's) and was told that the only time they see drywood termites is in furniture that has shipped from the Southwest.
So it's a legitimate worry, especially since they are very difficult to detect. I could not realize termites are within my furniture until several years down the road when it's been destroyed. That's why treatment (tenting, microwaving, etc.) should be done with my furnite inside because it kills the undetected termites.
However, if the owners continue to ignore the problem and won't have professionals treat the whole building, what can I do regarding my furniture??
I have. Orkin (in Ga.) told me that they have vaults to treat furniture. I contacted Orkin in California and Terminix, and they don't have vaults. I will continue to look for a way to treat furniture. However, I would like to know if the owners can be held liable and have to pay for the treatment. There's nothing in my lease regarding termites. Thanks again...
Part of a landlord's obligations (by law, not by lease) is to keep the premises in good repair. If their failure to act correctly caused damage to your stuff - yes, they are responsible. Just as if you reported a problem with a toilet not flushing correctly and it overflowed and soaked your stuff.
However, you will probably have to sue them to get your money.
I have, recently,(on a saturday) discovered termites in my apartment. They were all over my kitchen and entire living room -wall to wall. When I found out that I had termites, I immediately phoned my landlords "contact numbers". I was hung up on and afterward refused to have someone come and inspect the situation until the next business day. Their excuse was that there was no such thing as a 24 hr. pest control service and the next available date would be a monday. Monday came, I called the landlords' phone from my job (leaving the number 2 times)and asked him to please call back my work number before he planned anything. Needless to say, he never called me,instead he entered my apartment when my boyfriend was home (never calling me) and never made it a point to fix the problem. He told my boyfriend that he had spoken to me before unlocking the door and he was not going to have anyone to check the termites until thu. or fri.
Since then, I have tried many of times to get in contact with the landlord. I have left many messages in regards to my furniture being only a couple of months new and the termites eating even the sub-floor below the carpet. Do you have any advice for me and the situation that I am currently in?
Do you have renter's insurance? Contact them, and tell them that believe that your furniture has been infested with termites from your building and the landlord has not done anything since being contacted by you when you informed him that his building was infested. They will contact your landlord. Maybe his response to them will be quicker.

Tuesday 31 Mar 2015
By Julia Halperin. News, Issue 250, October 2013Published online: 02 October 2013
As its contribution to the Carnegie International (5 October-16 March), the exhibition of contemporary art that is held by Pittsburgh's Carnegie Museum of Art every four or five years, a Pennsylvania art collective called Transformazium has created a programme to lend art via a library in a local town.
See also:
The Carnegie Museum contributed $30,000 to the project in June, and 28 of the 35 artists in this year's show—including Taryn Simon, Vincent Fecteau and Wade Guyton—have donated works to the Braddock Carnegie Library. On 4 October, the library is due to unveil a permanent collection of more than 100 prints, paintings, photographs and sculptures that members can take out on loan for up to six weeks at a time. "It's amazing how many artists gave us original work," says Ruthie Stringer, who formed Transformazium in 2007 with fellow artists Dana Bishop-Root and Leslie Stem. Nineteen artists who are not part of this year's exhibition, including Cory Arcangel and Paul Ramirez Jonas, also donated works to the project. A handful of libraries have developed art-lending collections over the past decade, but most are affiliated with universities or located in populous, affluent communities. The Braddock Carnegie Library, by contrast, serves the 2,900 residents of Braddock, 40% of whom live below the poverty line, according to the 2010 census, as well as 16,000 people from surrounding municipalities.Transformazium plans to meet library administrators after the venture has been open for six months to "run the numbers and figure out what is circulating, and how often", Bishop-Root says. The group expects there to be between 300 and 500 loans within the first year.Transformazium was inspired to develop the collection after the success of a previous project at the library—a print shop that opened in 2009. "It gets more people in the door, and when they get here, they realise they want to take something home," says Vicki Vargo, the library's executive director. The lending library is an opportunity to expand "the deep art discourse that is already happening here to a wider audience", Stringer says.For participating artists, the lending library offers "an opportunity to think about value outside the art market, which can be a pretty confusing and arbitrary system", Bishop-Root says. "In this context, value is entirely dependent on how many people want to borrow the work."Sealing the dealMost of the Carnegie Museum's $30,000 contribution was used to renovate a room in the library to create storage space for the collection. Donations from local foundations and individuals made up the rest of the first-year operating budget of $78,000, which will go towards framing, installing an art rack, insurance costs and hiring staff who can discuss the collection during library hours.Each work is stamped with a seal on the back to show that it belongs to the library, and Transformazium expects library members to treat the art with the same respect they would a book. "People feel a tremendous amount of responsibility bringing art into a domestic space," says Dan Byers, a co-curator of the Carnegie International. "We spend so much time trying to protect works. Now we're just sending them out into the world."
