Book IV
1. The marks and government of the Church having been considered in the seven previous chapters, the power of the Church is now considered under three heads—viz. Doctrine, Legislation, Jurisdiction.
We come now to the third division—viz. the Power of the Church, as existing either in individual bishops, or in councils, whether provincial or general. I speak only of the spiritual power which is proper to the Church, and which consists either in doctrine, or jurisdiction, or in enacting laws.
Where are the bishops and councils in Calvin's "church"? If he thought Catholicism did it wrong, what was his superior alternative?
In regard to doctrine, there are two divisions—viz. the authority of delivering dogmas, and the interpretation of them. Before we begin to treat of each in particular, I wish to remind the pious reader, that whatever is taught respecting the power of the Church, ought to have reference to the end for which Paul declares (2 Cor. 10:8; 13:10) that it was given—namely, for edification, and not for destruction, those who use it lawfully deeming themselves to be nothing more than servants of Christ, and, at the same time, servants of the people in Christ. Moreover, the only mode by which ministers can edify the Church is, by studying to maintain the authority of Christ, which cannot be unimpaired, unless that which he received of the Father is left to him—viz. to be the only Master of the Church. For it was not said of any other but of himself alone, "Hear him" (Mt. 17:5). Ecclesiastical power, therefore, is not to be mischievously adorned, but it is to be confined within certain limits, so as not to be drawn hither and thither at the caprice of men. For this purpose, it will be of great use to observe how it is described by Prophets and Apostles. For if we concede unreservedly to men all the power which they think proper to assume, it is easy to see how soon it will degenerate into a tyranny which is altogether alien from the Church of Christ.
No disagreement here . . .
2. The authority and power given to Church-officers not given to themselves, but their office. This shown in the case of Moses and the Levitical priesthood.
Therefore, it is here necessary to remember, that whatever authority and dignity the Holy Spirit in Scripture confers on priests, or prophets, or apostles, or successors of Apostles, is wholly given not to men themselves, but to the ministry to which they are appointed; or, to speak more plainly, to the word, to the ministry of which they are appointed. For were we to go over the whole in order, we should find that they were not invested with authority to teach or give responses, save in the name and word of the Lord. For whenever they are called to office, they are enjoined not to bring anything of their own, but to speak by the mouth of the Lord.
Men represent God's will. Good . . .
Nor does he bring them forward to be heard by the people, before he has instructed them what they are to speak, lest they should speak anything but his own word. Moses, the prince of all the prophets, was to be heard in preference to others (Exod. 3:4; Deut. 17:9); but he is previously furnished with his orders, that he may not be able to speak at all except from the Lord.
If Calvin claims the same (or even similar) prerogative, he better have airtight reasoning; but as we have seen, he doesn't have that at all: not even remotely close.
Accordingly, when the people embraced his doctrine, they are said to have believed the Lord, and his servant Moses (Exod. 14:31). It was also provided under the severest sanctions, that the authority of the priests should not be despised (Exod. 17:9).
Priests? Where are they in Calvin's system? If he makes every Christian a priest, and confines the meaning of priest to that wider sense, then this is not analogous to the OT priestly system.
But the Lord, at the same time, shows in what terms they were to be heard, when he says that he made his covenant with Levi, that the law of truth might be in his mouth (Mal. 2:4-6). A little after he adds, "The priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth; for he is the messenger of the Lord of hosts." Therefore, if the priest would be heard, let him show himself to be the messenger of God; that is, let him faithfully deliver the commands which he has received from his Maker. When the mode of hearing, then, is treated of, it is expressly said, "According to the sentence of the law which they shall teach thee" (Deut. 17:11).
Sure; but Calvin takes this biblical teaching too far when he claims that a person ceases to be a priest or bishop or pope altogether, if he is corrupt in any way. That question has been dealt with in this reply many times previously.
3. The same thing shown in the case of the Prophets.
The nature of the power conferred upon the prophets in general is elegantly described by Ezekiel: "Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me" (Ezek. 3:17). Is not he who is ordered to hear at the mouth of the Lord prohibited from devising anything of himself?
Yes, indeed.
And what is meant by giving a warning from the Lord, but just to speak so as to be able confidently to declare that the word which he delivers is not his own but the Lord's? The same thing is expressed by Jeremiah in different terms, "The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully" (Jer. 23:28). Surely God here declares the law to all, and it is a law which does not allow any one to teach more than he has been ordered. He afterwards gives the name of chaff to whatever has not proceeded from himself alone. Accordingly, none of the prophets opened his mouth unless preceded by the word of the Lord. Hence we so often meet with the expressions, "The word of the Lord, The burden of the Lord, Thus saith the Lord, The mouth of the Lord hath spoken it." And justly, for Isaiah exclaims that his lips are unclean (Isa. 6:5); and Jeremiah confesses that he knows not how to speak because he is a child (Jer. 1:6). Could anything proceed from the unclean lips of the one, and the childish lips of the other, if they spoke their own language, but what was unclean or childish? But their lips were holy and pure when they began to be organs of the Holy Spirit.
These men were inspired, whereas popes and bishops and Church fathers do not claim that charism. Infallibility (as Catholics understand full well) is essentially different from inspiration, with the latter being a positive gift, and the former, mostly a negative protection against error in extraordinary circumstances of teaching.
The prophets, after being thus strictly bound not to deliver anything but what they received, are invested with great power and illustrious titles. For when the Lord declares, "See, I have this day set thee over the nations, and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant," he at the same time gives the reason, "Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth " (Jer. 1:9, 10).
Prophets are also a particular class of people: to which there is no direct analogy today in ecclesiastical offices, so the analogies only go so far. There is a sense, however, in which the prophets are analogous to papal infallibility. I explored this in my paper: Inspired Prophets as a Biblical Analogy to Papal Infallibility.
4. Same thing shown in the case of the Apostles, and of Christ himself.
Now, if you look to the apostles, they are commended by many distinguished titles, as the Light of the world, and the Salt of the earth, to be heard in Christ's stead, whatever they bound or loosed on earth being bound or loosed in heaven (Mt. 5:13, 14; Luke 10:16; John 20:23).
And priests carry on this function today, as their successors.
But they declare in their own name what the authority was which their office conferred on them—viz. if they are apostles they must not speak their own pleasure, but faithfully deliver the commands of him by whom they are sent.
But of course Church authorities today don't always receive a direct word from God, nor were they intended to. They go by Scripture, but also by Church tradition and the authoritative interpretation of the magisterium (completely in harmony with Scripture).
The words in which Christ defined their embassy are sufficiently clear, "Go ye, therefore, and teach all nations, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you" (Mt. 28:19, 20). Nay, that none might be permitted to decline this law, he received it and imposed it on himself. "My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me" (John 7:16). He who always was the only and eternal counsellor of the Father, who by the Father was constituted Lord and Master of all, yet because he performed the ministry of teaching, prescribed to all ministers by his example the rule which they ought to follow in teaching. The power of the Church, therefore, is not infinite, but is subject to the word of the Lord, and, as it were, included in it.
Catholics agree so far, but as Calvin develops his argument, there will assuredly be disagreement, because Calvin is insufficiently biblical, historical, and reasonable.
5. The Church astricted to the written Word of God. Christ the only teacher of the Church. From his lips ministers must derive whatever they teach for the salvation of others. Various modes of divine teaching. 1. Personal revelations.
But though the rule which always existed in the Church from the beginning, and ought to exist in the present day, is, that the servants of God are only to teach what they have learned from himself, yet, according to the variety of times, they have had different methods of learning. The mode which now exists differs very much from that of former times.
That's right.
First, if it is true, as Christ says, "Neither knoweth any man the Father save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him" (Mt. 11:27), then those who wish to attain to the knowledge of God behoved always to be directed by that eternal wisdom. For how could they have comprehended the mysteries of God in their mind, or declared them to others, unless by the teaching of him, to whom alone the secrets of the Father are known? The only way, therefore, by which in ancient times holy men knew God, was by beholding him in the Son as in a mirror. When I say this, I mean that God never manifested himself to men by any other means than by his Son, that is, his own only wisdom, light, and truth. From this fountain Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and others, drew all the heavenly doctrine which they possessed. From the same fountain all the prophets also drew all the heavenly oracles which they published. For this wisdom did not always display itself in one manner. With the patriarchs he employed secret revelations, but, at the same time, in order to confirm these, had recourse to signs so as to make it impossible for them to doubt that it was God that spake to them. What the patriarchs received they handed down to posterity, for God had, in depositing it with them, bound them thus to propagate it, while their children and descendants knew by the inward teaching of God, that what they heard was of heaven and not of earth.
No particular disagreement . . . I would note, however, that it is interesting that Calvin accepts some semblance of "succession" under the Old Covenant: "What the patriarchs received they handed down to posterity, for God had, in depositing it with them, bound them thus to propagate it." Why, then, does he have such a problem with the Catholic apostolic succession in the New Covenant? Catholic Tradition is nothing more than receiving what has been passed down, and passing it along (or "delivering" it) to others. But Calvin wants to reject so much of that. Why? By what criteria of selection can he possibly do so? In effect, Calvin and Calvinists and Protestants in general have to reject the historical "criterion" of truth (apostolic succession; things always having been believed, conciliar dogmas, papal decrees, etc.) and stick to Scripture Alone (as if Scripture can be entirely divorced from Church and Tradition and its own historical development: canonicity, etc.).
6. Second mode of teaching—viz. by the Law and the Prophets. The Prophets were in regard to doctrine, the expounders of the Law. To these were added Historical Narratives and the Psalms.
But when God determined to give a more illustrious form to the Church, he was pleased to commit and consign his word to writing, that the priests might there seek what they were to teach the people, and every doctrine delivered be brought to it as a test (Mal. 2:7).
The Old Covenant had plenty of writing and Scripture, too: in fact, relatively much more (volume-wise).
Accordingly, after the promulgation of the Law, when the priests are enjoined to teach from the mouth of the Lord, the meaning is, that they are not to teach anything extraneous or alien to that kind of doctrine which God had summed up in the Law, while it was unlawful for them to add to it or take from it.
Yet the Old Covenant (with far more in common, by analogy, to Catholics rather than Protestants) accepted oral tradition as well as the written Mosaic Law. See my paper: The Old Testament, the Ancient Jews, and Sola Scriptura.
Next followed the prophets, by whom God published the new oracles which were added to the Law, not so new, however, but that they flowed from the Law, and had respect to it. For in so far as regards doctrine, they were only interpreters of the Law, adding nothing to it but predictions of future events.
In other words, they were developments of the existing law. This is a good way to describe that: they "flowed from the Law." Catholic teachings (more highly developed ones) "flow from" the apostolic deposit and teachings of the Bible. Catholics add nothing essential to the apostolic deposit. Calvin could have possibly understood Catholicism, even from his own analogies. But, sadly, he did not, because he applies one framework and standard to himself and another to the Church that he rejects (and seems to not even be aware of his double standards and frequent internal inconsistencies).
With this exception, all that they delivered was pure exposition of the Law. But as the Lord was pleased that doctrine should exist in a clearer and more ample form, the better to satisfy weak consciences, he commanded the prophecies also to be committed to writing, and to be held part of his word. To these at the same time were added historical details, which are also the composition of prophets, but dictated by the Holy Spirit; I include the Psalms among the Prophecies, the quality which we attribute to the latter belonging also to the former. The whole body, therefore, composed of the Law, the Prophets, the Psalms, and Histories,
And the oral law (accepted by Jesus and the early Christians), which Calvin passes right over . . .
formed the word of the Lord to his ancient people, and by it as a standard, priests and teachers, before the advent of Christ, were bound to test their doctrine, nor was it lawful for them to turn aside either to the right hand or the left, because their whole office was confined to this—to give responses to the people from the mouth of God. This is gathered from a celebrated passage of Malachi, in which it is enjoined to remember the Law, and give heed to it until the preaching of the Gospel (Mal. 4:4). For he thus restrains men from all adventitious doctrines, and does not allow them to deviate in the least from the path which Moses had faithfully pointed out. And the reason why David so magnificently extols the Law, and pronounces so many encomiums on it (Ps. 19, 119), was, that the Jews might not long after any extraneous aid, all perfection being included in it.
This law was always authoritatively interpreted, including the input of the oral traditions passed down.
7. Last mode of teaching by our Saviour himself manifested in the flesh. Different names given to this dispensation, to show that we are not to dream of anything more perfect than the written word.
But when at length the Wisdom of God was manifested in the flesh, he fully unfolded to us all that the human mind can comprehend, or ought to think of the heavenly Father. Now, therefore, since Christ, the Sun of Righteousness, has arisen, we have the perfect refulgence of divine truth, like the brightness of noon-day, whereas the light was previously dim. It was no ordinary blessing which the apostle intended to publish when he wrote: "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners, spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son" (Heb. 1:1, 2); for he intimates, nay, openly declares, that God will not henceforth, as formerly, speak by this one and by that one, that he will not add prophecy to prophecy, or revelation to revelation, but has so completed all the parts of teaching in the Son, that it is to be regarded as his last and eternal testimony. For which reason, the whole period of the new dispensation, from the time when Christ appeared to us with the preaching of his Gospel, until the day of judgment, is designated by the last hour, the last times, the last days, that, contented with the perfection of Christ's doctrine, we may learn to frame no new doctrine for ourselves, or admit any one devised by others.
This is completely in accord with Catholic teaching. We hold that the apostolic deposit (public revelation) was complete and that nothing essentially new can be added to it.
With good cause, therefore, the Father appointed the Son our teacher, with special prerogative, commanding that he and no human being should be heard. When he said, "Hear him" (Mt. 17:5), he commended his office to us, in few words, indeed, but words of more weight and energy than is commonly supposed, for it is just as if he had withdrawn us from all doctrines of man, and confined us to him alone, ordering us to seek the whole doctrine of salvation from him alone, to depend on him alone, and cleave to him alone; in short (as the words express), to listen only to his voice. And, indeed, what can now be expected or desired from man, when the very Word of life has appeared before us, and familiarly explained himself? Nay, every mouth should be stopped when once he has spoken, in whom, according to the pleasure of our heavenly Father, "are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge" (Col. 2:3), and spoken as became the Wisdom of God (which is in no part defective) and the Messiah (from whom the revelation of all things was expected) (John 4:25); in other words, has so spoken as to leave nothing to be spoken by others after him.
We are responsible for spreading His gospel and His message, and for properly understanding and applying and developing it.
8. Nothing can be lawfully taught in the Church, that is not contained in the writings of the Prophets and Apostles, as dictated by the Spirit of Christ.
Let this then be a sure axiom—that there is no word of God to which place should be given in the Church save that which is contained, first, in the Law and the Prophets; and, secondly, in the writings of the Apostles, and that the only due method of teaching in the Church is according to the prescription and rule of his word.
Yes; correctly understood . . . But of course Calvin and Protestantism take this in an incomplete and inadequate direction: sola Scriptura, private judgment, no infallible Church, no popes, bishops (or even priests), councils, apostolic succession, etc.
Hence also we infer that nothing else was permitted to the apostles than was formerly permitted to the prophets—namely, to expound the ancient Scriptures, and show that the things there delivered are fulfilled in Christ: this, however, they could not do unless from the Lord; that is, unless the Spirit of Christ went before, and in a manner dictated words to them.
Indeed they could not.
For Christ thus defined the terms of their embassy, when he commanded them to go and teach, not what they themselves had at random fabricated, but whatsoever he had commanded (Mt. 28:20). And nothing can be plainer than his words in another passage, "Be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ" (Mt. 23:8-10). To impress this more deeply in their minds, he in the same place repeats it twice. And because from ignorance they were unable to comprehend the things which they had heard and learned from the lips of their Master, the Spirit of truth is promised to guide them unto all truth (John 14:26; 16:13). The restriction should be carefully attended to. The office which he assigns to the Holy Spirit is to bring to remembrance what his own lips had previously taught.
9. Neither the Apostles, nor apostolic men. nor the whole Church, allowed to overstep these limits. This confirmed by passages of Peter and Paul. Argument a fortiori.
Accordingly, Peter, who was perfectly instructed by his Master as to the extent of what was permitted to him, leaves nothing more to himself or others than to dispense the doctrine delivered by God. "If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God" (1 Peter 4:11); that is, not hesitatingly, as those are wont whose convictions are imperfect, but with the full confidence which becomes a servant of God, provided with a sure message. What else is this than to banish all the inventions of the human mind (whatever be the head which may have devised them), that the pure word of God may be taught and learned in the Church of the faithful,—than to discard the decrees, or rather fictions of men (whatever be their rank), that the decrees of God alone may remain steadfast?
That would take out much of the "Reformation" insofar as there were many many completely novel teachings, previously unknown or virtually unheard of. It does not eliminate, on the other hand, consistent development of doctrine, built upon the original apostolic deposit and the written, inspired Word of God.
These are "the weapons of our warfare," which "are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds; casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ" (2 Cor. 10:4, 5). Here is the supreme power with which pastors of the Church, by whatever name they are called,
And they're not called priests and bishops and popes in Calvin's new revolutionary ecclesiology . . .
should be invested— namely, to dare all boldly for the word of God, compelling all the virtue, glory, wisdom, and rank of the world to yield and obey its majesty; to command all from the highest to the lowest, trusting to its power to build up the house of Christ and overthrow the house of Satan; to feed the sheep and chase away the wolves; to instruct and exhort the docile, to accuse, rebuke, and subdue the rebellious and petulant, to bind and loose; in fine, if need be, to fire and fulminate, but all in the word of God.
The written word of God that Calvin fully accepts, teaches also that there is a Tradition, and an oral Tradition:
25 Short Biblical Arguments For the Binding Authority of TraditionAlthough, as I have observed, there is this difference between the apostles and their successors, they were sure and authentic amanuenses of the Holy Spirit; and, therefore, their writings are to be regarded as the oracles of God, whereas others have no other office than to teach what is delivered and sealed in the holy Scriptures. We conclude, therefore, that it does not now belong to faithful ministers to coin some new doctrine, but simply to adhere to the doctrine to which all, without exception, are made subject.
Biblical Evidence For Apostolic Tradition (Including Oral Tradition)
Tradition is Not a Dirty Word
True . . .
When I say this, I mean to show not only what each individual, but what the whole Church, is bound to do. In regard to individuals, Paul certainly had been appointed an apostle to the Corinthians, and yet he declares that he has no dominion over their faith (2 Cor. 1:24). Who will now presume to arrogate a dominion to which the apostle declares that he himself was not competent? But if he had acknowledged such licence in teaching, that every pastor could justly demand implicit faith in whatever he delivered, he never would have laid it down as a rule to the Corinthians, that while two or three prophets spoke, the others should judge, and that, if anything was revealed to one sitting by, the first should be silent (1 Cor. 14:29, 30). Thus he spared none, but subjected the authority of all to the censure of the word of God.
But the interpretation has its limits. The same Paul declared that nothing could be delivered that was not received. This is a major problem with the revolutionary novelties (and doctrinal corruptions) of the so-called "Reformation."
But it will be said, that with regard to the whole Church the case is different. I answer, that in another place Paul meets the objection also when he says, that faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God (Rom. 10:17). In other words, if faith depends upon the word of God alone, if it regards and reclines on it alone, what place is left for any word of man?
The place of delegated authority, of course, and authoritative interpretation, and guidelines for orthodoxy. This is why Protestants, too, are big on creeds and confessions: all of which presuppose authoritative interpretation of the inspired revelation.
He who knows what faith is can never hesitate here, for it must possess a strength sufficient to stand intrepid and invincible against Satan, the machinations of hell, and the whole world. This strength can be found only in the word of God.
That word of God always has to be interpreted, and people differ in that respect. Protestants have never been able to agree amongst themselves on many key issues. So merely proclaiming "we stand on God's word" etc. is never completely sufficient. It breaks down as soon as the differing interpretations arise. Catholics can resolve that debate on a doctrinal level, because we believe in an infallible Church. Protestants cannot, because they always have to fall back (by the very essential, fundamental nature of their system) on the individual, who reigns supreme. If no one individual can be the center of unity, and the final word, as the pope is, then we end up with 600 million popes rather than one. Talk about "papism"!
Then the reason to which we ought here to have regard is universal: God deprives man of the power of producing any new doctrine, in order that he alone may be our master in spiritual teaching, as he alone is true, and can neither lie nor deceive. This reason applies not less to the whole Church than to every individual believer.
Catholics fully agree. But as we'll see in the next section, Calvin takes these many true premises into an erroneous direction. One can know that 2+2=4, but without learning the times tables and higher mathematics, then the basic arithmetical truths can quickly lead to false equations and conclusions. Theology (like all intellectual systems) works the same way, in that respect.

For New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, it was the devastation visited upon his city by Hurricane Sandy that moved the political Independent to endorse President Barack Obama. Climate change is a fact and cities along the Eastern Seaboard like New York City could wind up getting walloped by future monster storms Bloomberg wrote in an opinion piece for Bloomberg View.
Bloomberg notes in his column that cities like his cant fight climate change alone and commended Obama for taking major steps to reduce our carbon consumption, including setting higher fuel-efficiency standards for cars and trucks. Bloomberg also noted that Obama has adopted tighter controls on mercury emissions, which will help to close the dirtiest coal power plants, that lead to the death of 13,000 Americans annually.
Bloomberg pointed out that Republican Mitt Romney had signed on to a regional cap-and-trade program as Governor of Massachusetts, but has since flip-flopped on the issue.
Its hard to blame Bloomberg, the mayor of a city that took such a devastating hit, for believing that climate change is a problem that needs immediate action. We need more leaders who believe likewise.

Coordinating perfectly with our larger Gooseneck Lights, our selection of Barn Wall Sconces offers stylish and practical fixtures. The narrow shade design brings traditional barn lighting inside your home, mounting to the wall in kitchens or serving as a bathroom wall sconce. However, with certain industrial fixtures earning a "wet rating," wall sconces make a great addition to your space's exterior, brightening porches and patios.
Despite their slight stature, industrial wall lights demonstrate how the small details make a difference in your décor. The timeless style adds a charm to both interior and exterior lighting plans. With the warehouse shade styles of the 1940's, each wall fixture is handcrafted — just as they were years ago! Because American-made wall sconces are made to order, your new sconce light reflects your individual style.
Accessorize your wall light fixtures with customization options including color, cast guards and wire cages. The plug-in option is available to products in this industrial wall sconce collection, allowing the chance to take your wall lights along when you move.

Two-hundred mile march for farmworkers' rights doesn't hurdle Publix roadblock
Lenka Davis
WMNF Drive-Time News Monday | Listen to this entire show:
About 1500 farmworkers and their allies completed their 200 mile, two week March for Respect, Rights and Fair food yesterday in Lakeland. They gathered at the headquarters of Publix in hope that the supermarket giant would honor what theyâre calling a Fair Food Program.
More than a decade ago south Florida tomato harvesters began a campaign for fair working conditions. Before the Coalition of Immokalee Workers organized, wages had not gone up in more than 20 years and workers are still paid just an average of fifty cents per bucket of tomatoes. Gerardo Reyes from the coaliton says the program provides the workers not just with an extra penny per pound of picked tomatoes, but also with essential human rights.
âThe right to be able to complain without retaliation, the right to work free of sexual harassment, discrimination, physical and verbal abuse, the right to don´t have to overfill your bucket, which is, in essence, putting ten percent less tomatoes in your bucket, which is a raise. We are eliminating all of that.â
Farmworker Oscar Otzoy remembers the days before the program came into existence.
"I remember one time I was working the tomato fields and they began to spray pesticides. So some colleagues and I got together and told the crew there that we didn't want to work since they had recently been sprayed by these pesticides. We were told that was fine and we could leave the farm and we would just have to wait there until the rest of the people were finished picking their tomatoes. The next day, to my surprise, my colleagues and I were informed that we no longer were able to work at that farm. He said you only come here to complain about work and that's not something that I can tolerate."
Silvia Perez has been working in the fields for 19 years. Before the workers had any sort of legal protection, she had to get up every morning at 4, returning to her family fifteen hours later, often earning less than minimum wage. She also faced various forms of abuse.
"It's difficult being a woman. A lot of times we find ourselves in an environment where there's a lot of men. It's always difficult working where there's just a little bit of women and a lot of men. Now, with the fair food agreement there's changes in discrimination, sexual harassment, stuff like that. And so there wasn't that before but now there's change, we see change in the field."
Eleven major food corporations, including McDonaldâs, Burger King and Whole Foods are already participating in the Fair Food Program, purchasing their tomatoes from the 90 percent of Florida growers who are committed to eliminating the abuses. Yet the Coalition says Publix continues to buy tomatoes from at least two of the farms that have rejected the program.
The protesters sing âYes, we can; yes, we could.â Students, religious leaders, community activists, consumers or solitary small farmers, all of them are united for the cause. Kim Wells, the pastor of the Lakewood United Church of Christ in St Petersburg says the church started supporting farmworkers since the broader movement began in 1960s.
"I think we're all involved because we all eat the food that comes from the fields from the people who are picking it. We all want this food in our grocery store and we want to enjoy food that we feel was grown and harvested and brought to us in a way that's fair and just and equitable and so that's why I think it's everybody because everybody eats."
Kate Savage from Nashville Fair Food in Tennessee has been volunteering during the march.
"I was on blister care for a little while and the strongest impressions for me were looking at feet that were so torn up and blistered and bruised. Trying to patch them up and saying 'there's nothing I can do to stop this from getting worse. It's going to get worse. Really the only thing to help is for you not to be on your feet for a few days, to rest on the bus or something like that'. Seeing these farmworkers who'd already marched hundreds of miles saying 'I came here to march 200 miles, I'm going to march 200 miles', even though they know that that is going to be incredibly painful."
The Coalition of Immokalee Workers has been trying to reach the agreement with Publix for more than three years.
Shannon Patten, the spokesperson for Publix, did not answer our repeated interview requests. In a statement, Publix says it wonât intervene in what it claims is a labor dispute between the farmworkers and their employers.

Save the pattern file somewhere you will remember. I have a folder on my Desktop called "Photoshop Downloads" and then inside I have seperate folders for Brushes, Patterns, Shapes, Styles, etc.
Anyway in Photoshop, go to Edit > Preset Manager. When that window pops up, select "Patterns" from the dropdown (default is Brushes) and then click the "Load" button on the right of the window. Browse to find where you saved your downloaded pattern and that's that.
Do you know how to apply a pattern to your layer?
Hi, i have a question.. i'm sorta new to photoshop, how do i use the patterns?

It was reported last week that three Canadians travelled to northern Africa to attack an Algerian gas plant. Ultimately, two of those three Canadians participated in an assault on January 16 that killed 37 refinery workers. The two Canadians also died in the aftermath of the attack. (The third Canadian was arrested before the mission occurred). All three of the men were Muslims and two were converts to Islam.
Royal Military College of Canada professor Christian Leuprecht is a terrorism expert who has also studied Muslim-Canadian public opinion. We spoke about how people become radicalized, and what can be done to stop potential terrorists from committing violence. Watch our conversation above.

Root Vegetable Cakes
|Celery root
|1⁄4 Small, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice for 1 cup
|1 Medium, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice for 1 cup
|1⁄4 Small, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice for 1 cup
|1 Medium, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice for 1 cup
|Red cabbage leaves
|2 Large
|Savoy cabbage leaves
|2 Large
|Unsalted butter
|2 Tablespoon
|1 Large, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice for 1 cup
|Freshly ground pepper
|To Taste
|Idaho potatoes
|1 Pound
|Olive oil
|2 Tablespoon
|Chopped fresh thyme
|1 Teaspoon
|To Taste
1. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the celery root, parsnip, rutabaga and kohlrabi; blanch until almost tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the vegetables to a colander and refresh under cold running water. Drain well.
2. Bring the water back to a boil and add the red and savoy cabbage leaves. Cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Refresh under cold water and drain thoroughly. Transfer to a clean kitchen towel and pat dry. Using a 2-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 4 neat circles from the red cabbage leaves; repeat with the savoy cabbage leaves. Cut the remaining cabbage into thin julienne strips.
3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over moderately high heat. Add the reserved blanched root vegetables, the beet and julienned cabbage and cook, stirring, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Line the bottom of 4 straight-sided '/2-cup ramekins with a savoy cabbage circle. Fill the ramekins with the diced root vegetables, packing them tightly. Top each ramekin with a red cabbage circle.
5. Peel and quarter the potatoes. In a medium saucepan, cover the potatoes with 4 cups of water; bring to a boil over moderately high heat. Cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the potatoes to a plate. Reserve the cooking water; you should have about 1 1/2 cups.
6. Mash one-fourth of the cooked potatoes in a medium bowl; discard the remaining potatoes. Boil the potato cooking liquid over moderately high heat until reduced to 1 cup, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the mashed potatoes and the olive oil. The sauce should be the consistency of pancake batter. Set aside.
7. Preheat the oven to 350°. Place the ramekins in a small roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Cover with foil and bake until the vegetables are heated through and the beets are tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
8. To serve, reheat the potato sauce over moderate heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste and add the thyme. Invert the vegetable cakes onto serving plates and ladle the warm potato sauce around them.

Introspection and shyness - evolutionary tactic?
I have previously pointed to the work of Jerome Kagan at Harvard; who, along with others, has shown that some of us are born with a predisposition to be timid and more anxious. The temperament we display in early childhood (introvesion versus extroversion, high versus low reactivity, anxiety in unfamiliar versus familiar situations, etc) is largely genetically determined and persists through life. In this vein Susan Cain has recently offered an interesting article on shyness. She first notes the re-framing of shyness into "Social Anxiety Disorder" by drug company TV adds seeking to sell serotonin reuptake inhibitors (S.S.R.I.), cited Zoloft advertisements:
...the ad's insinuation aside, it's also possible the young woman is "just shy," or introverted — traits our society disfavors. One way we manifest this bias is by encouraging perfectly healthy shy people to see themselves as ill...Social anxiety disorder did not officially exist until it appeared the 1980 Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, the DSM-III, the psychiatrist's bible of mental disorders, under the name "social phobia." It was not widely known until the 1990s, when pharmaceutical companies received F.D.A. approval to treat social anxiety with S.S.R.I.'s and poured tens of millions of dollars into advertising its existence...Though the DSM did not set out to pathologize shyness, it risks doing so, and has twice come close to identifying introversion as a disorder, too. (Shyness and introversion are not the same thing. Shy people fear negative judgment; introverts simply prefer quiet, minimally stimulating environments.)Cain's article continues with an interesting discussion of the respective advantages and disadvantages of being a sitter or a rover.
...shy and introverted people have been part of our species for a very long time, often in leadership positions...We find them in recent history, in figures like Charles Darwin, Marcel Proust and Albert Einstein, and, in contemporary times: think of Google's Larry Page, or Harry Potter's creator, J. K. Rowling.
...We even find "introverts" in the animal kingdom, where 15 percent to 20 percent of many species are watchful, slow-to-warm-up types who stick to the sidelines (sometimes called "sitters") while the other 80 percent are "rovers" who sally forth without paying much attention to their surroundings. Sitters and rovers favor different survival strategies, which could be summed up as the sitter's "Look before you leap" versus the rover's inclination to "Just do it!" Each strategy reaps different rewards.
IN an illustrative experiment, David Sloan Wilson, a Binghamton evolutionary biologist, dropped metal traps into a pond of pumpkinseed sunfish. The "rover" fish couldn't help but investigate — and were immediately caught. But the "sitter" fish stayed back, making it impossible for Professor Wilson to capture them. Had Professor Wilson's traps posed a real threat, only the sitters would have survived. But had the sitters taken Zoloft and become more like bold rovers, the entire family of pumpkinseed sunfish would have been wiped out. "Anxiety" about the trap saved the fishes' lives.
Next, Professor Wilson used fishing nets to catch both types of fish; when he carried them back to his lab, he noted that the rovers quickly acclimated to their new environment and started eating a full five days earlier than their sitter brethren. In this situation, the rovers were the likely survivors. "There is no single best ... [animal] personality," Professor Wilson concludes in his book, "Evolution for Everyone," "but rather a diversity of personalities maintained by natural selection."
The same might be said of humans, 15 percent to 20 percent of whom are also born with sitter-like temperaments that predispose them to shyness and introversion. (The overall incidence of shyness and introversion is higher — 40 percent of the population for shyness, according to the psychology professor Jonathan Cheek, and 50 percent for introversion. Conversely, some born sitters never become shy or introverted at all.)

Last May, Steve got us excited when he finally answered the 50,000 mac fans who wrote to him and announced that Apple would be going green. Steve's commitment was not everything we asked for but it did include a commitment to the phase out of the toxic chemicals Brominated Fire Retardants (BFRs) and Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) by the end of 2008.
In June last year Apple launched the iPhone. We had hoped that the iPhone would be Apples' first step towards a green product but Steve missed the call, but it seems that Steve has come back with a winner at this years' Mac World.
This time Steve is on the right path for a green Apple. The MacBook Air is a strong entry in the race to build a green PC. As a mercury and arsenic free laptop it exceeds European Standards (RoHS directive exemptions) and raises the bar for the rest of the industry. The BFR and PVC free printed wiring on the motherboard is a big step forward, but not a first. Sony achieved that last November.
The MacBook Air has less PVC and BFRs than other Mac computers, but it is not entirely free from those hazardous chemicals. Had it been it would have made Apple an ecological leader.
With their product design on the right track Apple needs to make environmental leadership the theme of all its products - old and new. That means green design as standard right through the product line and a real global commitment to take back and recycling.
We can almost taste that Green Apple, unfortunately it's not ripe yet.

Watershed Collaborative Overview
Under the leadership of Roaring Fork Conservancy, Pitkin County, and USFS, an ongoing and very productive set of "Water Issues" has brought together key respondents, agencies, conservation groups and others in an ongoing dialog and assembly of related work efforts to look at water quality and water quantity issues in the region. This exciting linkage of related water studies and interested agencies continues to explore the complex arena of data base development, knowledge and information dissemination, and policy related studies that impact our communities and future. Collectively they have ensured that their efforts compliment each other, avoid duplication, allow individual efforts to test the applicability and utility of findings, and pool resources to become competitive for major continuing study funding.
Watershed Collaborative Contact List - As of January 23, 2012

BY The Beaver Editorial Team
Voting for the Executive Officers of the Students' Union of the London School of Economics closes tomorrow, Thursday March 6th at 7 PM. The SU has claimed that by the second day of voting, 1,600 students had already cast their vote. With a week full of campaigning, the Beaver takes a look at what has developed in this past week.
Several candidates have withdrawn their candidacy throughout the past week.
General Secretary
For the position of General Secretary, former candidate Jack Kelly cited "personal constraints" for his reason for stepping down. Jason Wong released a two and a half minute video stating that he would be "staying in this race" after withdrawing his candidacy from General Secretary and throwing his weight behind his campaign for Education Officer. Wong endorsed candidate Musty Kamal for the General Secretary position, stating the decision was made based on the consensus on "five key areas of reforms," and posted a photo on Facebook.
Other candidates for the position of General Secretary include Abi Aryan, Sam Barnett, Nona Buckley- Irvine, and Mengxuan Lonoy Ge.
Education Officer
From the once 6 person race for Education Officer, Jamie Pelling withdrew his candidacy after publishing this on his Facebook event page:
"We have fought hard, we have propelled, but now our drive shaft is bent and our motor running out. I am very sorry to everyone that supported me, but I shall no longer be running to be your Education officer.
This decision is a political one. I can heartily support Dan and Thomas in their campaign."
Nathan Bullock, Patricia Grace de Lara, Tom Maksymiw, Dan Martin and Jason Wong remain as candidates.
Community and Welfare
Jade Symonds withdrew her candidacy for Community and Welfare Officer announcing that she had received an employment opportunity. She publicly supported candidate Seb Bruhn for the position. Other candidates include Heba Al-Nasser and Nathan Bullock, neither of whom have submitted a manifesto.
None of the candidates for Activities and Development have withdrawn thus far.
Throughout the election period, several complaints have been submitted to the Returning Officer, Joe Anderson. This has reportedly resulted in several sanctions, including bans on candidates and campaigners campaigning—either online or offline—for specific lengths of times.
When asked as to how many complaints had been filed, Anderson informed the Beaver it was "a lot."
Rules for the elections are available here: http://www.lsesu.com/pageassets/yourunion/Election-rules-Lent-Term-2014.pdf
Election rules state that candidates are prohibited from misrepresent another candidate, sabotaging their campaign or campaign materials, or refer to another candidate's character. Candidates may not campaign in the LSE library, or any computer room.
Reflections on SU Elections
"I'd like to see less 'big' ideological politics, and more listening to matters that matter, especially student societies."
-Lorenz Kost, German Society President
"I find the election process to be fun and entertaining part of LSE. It really does bring to the light the thoughts of our student body, especially the committed and passionate. However I do feel a lot of what is said are false promises written on a manifesto just to secure an easy job or addition to the CV."
-Bobby Kent, Second year Mathematics and Economics Student

Very good AteamNM, that first paragraph was brilliant.
But then you got in to opinion and bias.
I'm 54 years old, 6ft 1, and 85 kg. For 15 years I've been a time-trial cyclist (think tucked-in, aero) I know quite a lot about making things fit and extracting the best bio-mechanical output from a given stance or position.
In moto bikes, as with push bikes, there is not a One-Size-Fits-All solution. They make bikes, and then it's up to the owner (or supplier there-of) to, make them fit to their body type, style of riding etc.
I don't think you're alone in thinking that everyone who ever saddled up a trials bike wants to be the next Tony Bou, but I also don't think you're in the majority.
You may well have a young and un-injured back, your knees are hopefully in good condition, hands and elbows all tip-top. Good for you, you go ahead and ride your bike your way. Meanwhile there are other people who aren't perfect young specimens, who cant ride round all day leaned forward with their hands not much higher than mid-thigh, who will benefit from some knowledgable help with bike set-up.
I believe this to be a friendly sport, and have certainly found this to be so locally, where help and advice are given generously.
DERISION OF THE NEW AND UNSKILLED, is on the list to become the next deadly sin.
Beware: the nooby you deride today, could be your tax inspector tomorrow

Marketing Information
From the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise.
The "Metal Gear Solid (MGS)" series is the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.

March 23, 2012 - 01:06 pm
Decrease Increase Text size
ABERDEEN TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) - More than 900 students at a New Jersey middle school have been told no more hugging.
The district says Matawan-Aberdeen Middle School Principal Tyler Blackmore made an announcement that students were in a "no hugging school" following some "incidents of unsuitable, physical interactions."
School Superintendent David Healy says the district has the responsibility to teach children about appropriate interactions.
The superintendent says despite the rule, students who hug will not be suspended. The superintendent says he believes the principal acted responsibly.
Students range in ages from 11 to 14 in grades six to eight.

In 1992 Scott Howard worked for an Apple, HP and Compaq dealer in Birmingham, Alabama. He was assigned 900 retail and educational customers. Quotes took half an hour to write and editing them was a pain. Seeing the growing tension in Scott's face, another salesman put a boxed copy of FileMaker Pro 2 in his hands and said, "I found this helpful. It might help you with your work." Scott stayed up all night and created his first quote management solution. It generated quotes while on the phone and could be edit instantly – he was sold on FileMaker's power and flexibility.
Over the next four years Scott improved his quote management solution to create orders, track customer contacts, generate commission and expense reports and more. When he left that company he sold his solution to a colleague who still uses it to run his independent Apple dealership.
A client, the Alabama Eye Bank, hired Scott to improve their FileMaker system. Over the next two years it revolutionized their operations; It increased efficiency by eliminating redundant data entry, improved cash flow by freeing up time to follow up on aging receivables, shortened the time to communicate with donor families and so much more. Word got out about AEB's system and it was twice featured on FileMaker, Inc.'s web site. In April 2000 Scott presented his eye bank solution at Internet World 2000 with Steve Marcek, then CTO of FileMaker, Inc.
Scott founded and for many years lead the Birmingham FileMaker Developers Group, a local user group that helped FileMaker developers' improve their skills in a relaxed group setting.
In 2007 Scott left the Eye Bank to work with churches in Africa, South America and Europe. He earned his living by developing FileMaker Pro solutions for clients around the US. For several years Scott worked for Small Company, one of the top FileMaker development companies and host of the famous Design Master Class. Scott Howard Consulting has grown steadily for years. We are members of the FileMaker Business Alliance. We have two full-time FileMaker 12 Certified developers on staff and several subcontractors who bring their technical expertise to projects that need them.
Michael Polanyi, the Hungarian physical chemist, wrote that a well-designed tool, once mastered, becomes an extension of the craftsman's mind and body. It almost disappears as the craftsman focuses on his work. It is a pleasure to use; it just fits. A poorly designed tool demands attention and distracts from the task at hand. Good software should bring to the worker the tools needed to accomplish each task well. Our passion is to design tools that fit the task and the people doing it. We love seeing a new employee pick up our software for the first time and get to work within minutes because it fits the task so well.
If you need software for your business or project, or training in FileMaker Pro, please call or write us any time.
Take care,
Scott G Howard

Way back in ought seven, (was it really that long ago?), I got to do some pretty cool things. Like work in London, backpack around the world, and meet enough characters to fill the pages of my writing for the rest of my life.
But, perhaps more important than that, I started a minor global protest of a major coffee chain. And by that I mean, it was major to me and I was traveling around the globe at the time. All went well, until I met match. I won't give the climax of the story away here, but let's just say, "Baked goods" and leave it at that.
I've written about my (ridiculous) hero's journey in this recent article: A Coffee Addict's Tale of Woe. Read it, empathize, judge me, whatever, and know that when it comes to coffee. I. Don't. Stand. Down.
(Until I do).
Friends and family to whom I sent regular emails about my travels, may recall this story. It's not "Dishrack Girl," but it's pretty close. Thanks to Daily Shot of Coffee for the print!

Product description
The kings of ancient Egypt's first five dynasties were responsible for the creation of a unique and enduring civilisation, epitomised by its most impressive monuments, the pyramids. Yet what do we know about the reigns of these kings? Excavations have revealed much; but Egyptology has always been blessed with another rich source of information, the written texts and inscriptions composed by the ancient Egyptians themselves.For the history of the first five dynasties, one particular series of inscriptions has always been of prime importance. This is the collection of inscribed, stone fragments known as the royal annals. Now divided between museums in Palermo, Cairo and London, these documents from ancient Egypt have been the focus of countless studies in the century or so since they first came to light. For they seem to record the reigns of Egypt's early kings on a reign-by-reign, year-by-year basis. The information they contain has been translated, interpreted and re-interpreted by generations of Egyptologists, in the hope of achieving a better understanding of the first great period of ancient Egyptian history. And yet amazingly for such crucial documents, no complete edition of all seven surviving fragments has ever been published. Royal Annals fills this gap. The text is accompanied by specially-commissioned, detailed line-drawings of all the fragments.

Elaborately Painted Shroud of Neferhotep, Son of Herrotiou
Neferhotep's shroud bears a Roman-style portrait, similar to the panel portrait found on Demetrios's mummy. Neferhotep thus avoided the cost of the wooden panel that Demetrios used, instead instructing the artists to paint directly on the shroud. In addition, Neferhotep's artists used less-expensive tempera rather than the encaustic paint found in Demetrios's portrait. When Neferhotep's shroud was excavated by the French archaeologist Bernard Bruyère in 1948, parts of it were missing. The ultraviolet photograph reproduced here indicates darker areas of restoration done about 1970. The shroud entered the Brooklyn Museum's collection in 1975.
