16:1 Now concerning the collection. From 2 Cor. 8:1–4 and Rom. 15:25–27 it appears that one of the purposes of Paul's third missionary journey was to raise an offering from the Gentiles for Jewish Christians in Judea who were in need, possibly as a result of persecution. Apparently, Paul had already told the Corinthians about this project in an earlier letter (5:9). They had asked for more information and perhaps expressed reservations about it (Introduction: Date and Occasion).

I cannot recommend this hotel enough. The room was fantastic, relaxing and a delight to come back to each night. The breakfast menu is one of the best I have seen in a hotel. The staff are very friendly and efficient. Perhaps most importantly, the location, while potentially tough to find at first, puts you right in the middle of the electric atmosphere of a Hutong. The selection of eclectic and unusual local bars and restaurants will keep you busy every evening. Overall, if in Beijing, stay at the Orchid

Restaurants in Paris
Located on the Left Bank near le Bon Marché department store, this busy wine bar was first established in the 1950's. The intimate, glass-enclosed space is furnished with an original zinc bar as well as ceramic tiles and vineyard-themed frescoes created by local artists.
Owned by brothers Gilbert and Jean-Louis Costes of the renowned Hôtel Costes, Le Georges opened in 2000 on the top floor of the Centre Georges Pompidou, home of the Musée National d'Art Moderne (National Museum of Modern Art).
Philippe Starck's redo of this Paris institution, including its Michelin three-starred restaurant, features some surreal touches, from table legs shod in fancy footwear to a frosted mirror (it's literally refrigerator-cooled).
Upon entering the main dining room of Les Élysées, in the four-star Hotel Vernet near the Champs Élysées and Arc de Triomphe, look up to see the stained-glass dome ceiling with gilded edging, designed by Gustave Eiffel.
Across from Norte Dame on the Left Bank, this bistro serves a combination of classic and modern French cuisine imagined by world-renowned chef Guy Savoy.
Founded as an organic wine shop that later added a supper club for friends, Le Chapeau Melon ("the bowler hat") in Belleville is now a restaurant that stays true to its oenophile roots and to the refined palate of chef and sommelier Oliver Camus.
Located in the Renaissance Paris le Parc Trocadero Hotel, Le Relais du Parc restaurant is led by chefs Denis Zanetti and Romain Corbière, who serve French cuisine like cocotte egg with piperade and Serrano ham.
Just minutes from the Trocadero in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, Jamin achieved notoriety in the 1980s when chef Joel Robuchon earned his third Michelin star.
This unassuming bakery on the cusp of the Luxembourg Gardens offers a range of pastries, breads, and lunch dishes. Its corner placement, with hanging flowers above the adjoining sidewalk, offers a chance to people-watch from either outside or through the large windows.
In the heart of the Golden Triangle, next to Les Champs Elysées, sits the Mini-Palais.

Luke Evans On Dracula, 'The Hobbit' and Coping With Newfound FameMike Ryan October 8, 2014 @ 11:38 AM
Luke Evans looks good in a cape. And I get the impression that Luke Evans knows that he looks good in a cape, though, the trick is, as he says, a good wind machine. This is now life for Evans, an admittedly private actor who is starring in what seems to be just about everything these days. I asked Evans if he can walk down the street without being mobbed, to which he responded that, outside of a stray fan every few blocks or so, he can still walk around in general obscurity. Soon after this interview, I left Evans' hotel and was greeted by an almost block-wide spread depicting Evans as Dracula ... you know, those mobs might be coming sooner rather than later.

Presents the parallel stories of a young woman who falls in love with an Armenian soldier while aiding victims of the Armenian genocide in the early twentieth century, and a young woman who researches her Armenian heritage and discovers a terrible familysecret.A historical love story inspired by the author's Armenian heritage finds early 20th-century nurse Elizabeth Endicott arriving in Syria to help deliver food and medical aid to genocide refugees, a volunteer service during which she exchanges letters with an Armenian engineer and widower. By the best-selling author of
Author Bio
Chris Bohjalian is the author of more than a dozen works of literary fiction, many of which have been categorized by critics as "issue novels," because of their focus on such important topics as homelessness, the environment, and the hazards of childbirth. Bohjalian's unusual last name is Armenian; his paternal grandparents were survivors of the genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman government around the time of World War I, and the massacres form the backdrop for his acclaimed 2012 novel, THE SANDCASTLE GIRLS. After graduating from Amherst College in 1982, Bohjalian, who had been discouraged from pursing a writing career by one particularly scornful professor, took a job at a New York City ad agency. In 1986, after a harrowing encounter with an irate cab driver, he and his wife, the photographer Victoria Blewer, decided to move to Vermont. They purchased a century-old clapboard home in the small town of Lincoln, and Bohjalian began writing a Burlington Free Press column, "Idyll Banter," about his new life. (The pieces were published in a book of the same name in 2003.) His first novel, the murder mystery A KILLING IN THE REAL WORLD, was published in 1988. His previously modest readership increased greatly upon the publication of his fifth book, MIDWIVES (1997), which was selected by Oprah Winfrey for her influential book club. Since then, Bohjalian's work has appeared regularly on bestseller lists, and he has won numerous literary honors, including the New England Book Award. MIDWIVES, PAST THE BLEACHERS (1992), and SECRETS OF EDEN (2010) have all been adapted into well-received films. Bohjalian credits his adopted home for much of his success. "Writers can talk with agonizing hubris about finding their voices, but for me, it was in Vermont that I discovered issues, things that matter to me," he told an interviewer. He explained that among his favorite quotes is one by Wendell Berry: "If you don't know where you are, you don't know who you are."
"A gruesome, unforgettable exposition of the still too-little-known facts of the Armenian genocide and its multigenerational consequences." (starred review) 05/15/2012 "Bohjalian--the grandson of Armenian survivors--pours passion, pride, and sadness into his tale of ethnic destruction and endurance." - Lisa Schwarzbaum 07/20/2012 "[The book] wraps the threads of a significant historic event around a deeply moving story of survival and enduring love." - Carol Memmott 07/16/2012

"Antics is a tool that can be accessible to everyone. The director can block out
It was perhaps inevitable that Pre-Viz (pre-visualisation) would start to look to machinima as a new market. For those of you who don't know the history of pre-viz, it's still just over a decade old, having begun in the early nineties with CG artist Colin Green while working on the film Judge Dredd. Essentially, pre-viz is a form of 3d storyboarding that allows the director (and usually the effects crew) to see their scene/shots in real time with real world measurements in order to properly plan the shots they are interested in and, most importantly, budget them correctly. Of course, this is the high end version of pre-viz created with programs like Maya and XSI. You've probably seen some of them on "Special Edition" DVDs of films like "The Lord of the Rings" and "A.I.".
So where does Antics come in to the picture? Well, as the idea of pre-viz became more popular, many indie and low-budget filmmakers began to look for a way to get the same benefits from 3d storyboarding, but without the huge price and steep learning curve of Maya. Antics saw a need for a simple drop-and-click program that just about anyone could learn that was priced for companies (and individuals) on a budget. Antics released version 1.0 in 2000 to positive reviews and strong interest from the professional film world. It's growth as a company (still centered in Cambridge, England) has led it to create branch offices in London and in Los Angeles.
I was initially exposed to Antics through a recommendation from a fellow machinima filmmaker who told me that the program was promising. I was interested, but when I did some research I realized that while Antics (then in version 2.0) was cheap for the professional filmmaker, it was too expensive for a poor machinima filmmaker like me. I did like the look of the 3d world and the community looked interesting. With some regret, I turned back to games, but I've kept my eye on the development of Antics.
Then in the late fall, my friend, Phil Rice (aka Overman) blogged that Antics had released their version 3.0 and that the base program plus a decent amount of content was free. Well, I was very impressed with this move by Antics. After downloading the free program and checking out the site, I realized that Antics was now a viable machinima tool. And it appears that I am not alone in this opinion. Antic's user base went from around 700 to almost 10, 000 in three months. When Brad Kolacinksi, the sales and marketing director for the Los Angeles branch of Antics, told me this at a recent Antics LA users meeting, I was dumbfounded. What a huge change in direction for Antics. And if the huge increase in user base is any indication, it seems to be paying off.
This review will be a little different from a traditional software review in that I am going to focus primarily on viability of Antics 3.0 as a machinima tool. My background (in addition to writing) is in machinima, and I have a personal interest in Antics as a tool for several machinima projects I have planned for the future. Yes, I'll cover some of the basics of how Antics functions in version 3.0, but I won't go into great depth. I had planned to create a small film in Antics 3.0 (5 minutes) and journal the process, but deadlines and other projects pushed this idea aside.
So, lets get started with a short interview I did with Brad. I can say right off the bat that the support and communication with the community by Antics LA is very good. I've met Brad and listened to him demonstrate how to import Google Warehouse models into Antics 3.0. He is an interesting person who obviously likes his job and likes the product he is selling. We spoke last week on Skype about the history of the company, the Antics decision to create the free base program, machinima and a bit about Brad himself. This interview has been slightly edited for brevity and content.
Interview with Brad Kolacinski (mp3 format)
Antics3d version 3.0 was released in the fall of 2007. The free base program can be downloaded from the main Antics site. As Brad mentions in the interview, the added content for the download was light because they didn't want to make the download size too large. There is a large amount of additional free content available at the Antics site once you register. You can also buy additional packs which are reasonably priced. They have been releasing 2-3 new content packs every two weeks. This content includes sets, characters, props, landscapes, animations and more. Antics also makes a professional version of the program available for purchase ($595 USD) which contains a significant amount of content, free downloads of all premium content for a year, licensing for 2 activations, beefed up customer support and a 3DS Max Exporter, which will soon be available for separate purchase by Base pack users.
Since there are no significant differences between the Base program and the Pro program, in terms of functionality, I'll be reviewing the Pro version. It's clear that the free Base program is not a "lite" version, but can do nearly everything that the Pro version can do. My thanks to Brad and Antics for providing the Pro version of Antics 3.0 for review.
Antics 3.0 is the simplest and most intuitive entry level 3d movie-making software program on the market today. I created a set, decorated it, placed characters, charted their movements and animations, set up cameras and made timing adjustments on the time-line, all within an hour or so. And that's without reviewing the user's manual or watching any of the excellent video tutorials available at the Antcs3d.com site.
Once you've either built your set and/or downloaded one from the Antics Warehouse, you proceed to peopling your scene with characters and setting up your shots/cameras. Camera control is one of the best parts of Antics 3.0. You can create simple camera shots, free cameras, follow camera or treat your camera as a prop and key-frame it's actions all with simple point and click actions. You'd expect this level of control for a pre-viz program since production companies are most interested in how the shot works and what will be seen within the shot. For a machinima filmmaker it's a relief since so many games have such complex and difficult methods to set up camera shots. Antics makes working with your camera simple, leaving you to work on timing the various elements of your scene.
Working with characters and their animations is an easy process within Antics as well; choose your character from an interesting range of ages, races, genders and classes, then simply click and drop them where you want on the set. You can then position them with ease. Choosing the correct animations is a bit more involved, but with some practice it becomes easy and straight-forward. Posing characters for Storyboarding down to the finger level is a snap (literally) and you can take screen caps with a click of a button.
The Antics time-line is extremely simple, and yet it allows you to make very subtle and precise changes to timings of props, characters and camera movements. Again, by simply using the point, click and drag functions you can re-time just about any element of your scene with almost complete freedom. When you have your scene the way you want it, you can easily render it to Avi, Quick Time or image sequence. The preference section allows you to choose your output size and any other elements you want to tweak for your final output.
And that's how simple and easy the work flow is with Antics 3.0. I found that while I was working through a few simple scenes that the program was very solid with no crashing or lock-ups. The default "save project" occurs about every five minutes, but is completely adjustable. One of my buddies who has been working with Antics a bit longer says that there is a little bit of instability once your time-line gets complicated with a lot of elements to manipulate. I also found that repeated use of the assets viewer forced me to re-size it each time as it would revert to it's default size each time you close and re-open the window. I have a large monitor (Dell 24") and it became a bit of a pain to do this every time I wanted to look through the assets.
While Antics 3.0 is a very good program for the machinima filmmaker, it still needs development before it becomes a major tool. The lighting in Antics is very basic, and although lighting is simple to set up and modify, it really isn't robust enough for the kind of look filmmakers need in creating dramatic scenes. Moreover, there are no shadows cast by characters or props which makes it even harder to create convincing light effects. There are workarounds with exporting to Photoshop or After Effects and hand-creating them there, but this is somewhat time-consuming and not everyone uses these programs or can afford them.
In summing up, Antics 3.0 is a promising 3d animation package for machinima filmmakers. The Antics company has made the base program free and is making a concerted effort to connect with the machinima community. Ease of use, commitment to providing interesting and varied content at a price point that is affordable, strong customer support and the recently announced ability to import the Google Sketch Up file format into Antics 3.0 (coming in March, 2008) make Antics 3.0 a serious option for machinima filmmakers who want to work outside of the game EULA and own their own content. There is strong competition from other programs like Moviestorm and Frame Forge, but I'm impressed with Antics. If they are able to add facial animation and lighting to the program (and Brad , their director of marketing and sales, assures me that this is one of their goals for the future), I think Antics will be the program of choice for many machinima filmmakers.
My system: Abit P35 Pro Mobo
-Antics 3.0 is essentially a Windows based program (2000, XP, Vista) and does not support the Mac OSX operating system, however there appears that by using Apple's Boot Camp software, Antics will work on a Mac. I don't own a Mac, so I can't vouch for Boot Camp's effectiveness. I did see several Mac laptops at the L.A. User Group meeting last month, so it appears to be an effective workaround.
-The Antics 3.0 system requirements:
Microsoft® Windows® 2000 (SP 4), XP (SP 2), Vista
-The Antics website is a very well-designed (like their software) and the community is active and helpful. You'll find a wide range of users from pros looking for pre-viz advice to newbie machinima filmmakers. The Antics staff is extremely good. I found it easy to communicate and get help. The Los Angeles office is planning a series of monthly user's group meetings. The January meeting was attended by about 20 people some of which were professional cinematographers and art directors. The networking is great and the presentation was superb. I hope to attend most of the future meetings as I learn more about Antics 3.0.
-Here's a nice product overview produced by Antics. You can also download the tutorials if you like.
-Mike Jones (fast becoming a Susan Sontag for machinima) has a fascinating essay/blog "Machinima, Software GUI and the Aspirational User" where he analyses the GUI of Antics and Moviestorm and who he thinks they were designed for. There are intriguing and feisty comments on the blog entry as well. Worth a read.
-I haven't come across any major reviews for Antics 3.0 yet, but there are lots of interesting reviews for the earlier Antics 2.5. You can sample them at the Antics site here.
-Pre-Viz has an interesting history. Wikipedia has a good overall history. Excellent interview with one of the founders of pre-viz, Colin Green. DV Magazine has a decent round-up of low cost pre-viz software (including Antics 2.5), you can find it here.
-Tony Bannon (Ammo PreViz) has probably created the most interesting work from a machinima perspective. His recent "Folie a Deux" is an excellent and imaginative film which won the Antics Medical Pack competition (you had to use elements from the recently released med pack). Tony's blog is a good source of information for Antics and Antics-related news. CJ Ambrosia is doing some good work as well. His recent "Have a Ball" is an amusing short that shows off some of what Antics can do. Leo Lucien-Bay's "Anonymous Coward" is another well-done machinima film shot in Antics. Both films are available for viewing at the Antics Cinema section of their website.

Re: Can i charge the battery in between calibrations cycles? in response to LynGeoTech
The instuctions for calibration I have are as follows:
a) Fully charge your MacBook.
b) Once fully charged, leave it plugged in for at least another 2 hours.
c) Remove the MagSafe power adapter, and use your computer until it reaches around 5% remaining.
d) Plug in your MacBook and charge it to 100% battery life.
e) Once fully charged, your battery has been properly calibrated.
I read that it is good to do this every few months, but not everyone thinks it is good to intentionally deplete the battery's charge. Calibrating seemed to help my MBA get more accurate battery time estimations, but it is up to you.
PlotinusVeritas Nov 11, 2013 6:58 AM
Re: Can i charge the battery in between calibrations cycles? in response to LynGeoTech
Your #1 No, NEVER DO THAT.
As per Apple:
Portables with built-in batteries
Current Apple portable computer batteries are pre-calibrated and do not require calibration procedure.
There is no "calibrating" on your LiPo battery despite many flapping lips about this 'procedure'.
Keep it plugged in when near a socket so you keep the charging cycles DOWN on your LiPo (lithium polymer) cells / battery.
*Contrary to some myths out there, there is protection circuitry in your macbook and therefore you cannot 'overcharge' it when plugged in and already fully charged
You certainly CAN leave your macbook plugged in all the time, take it off charge and drain the battery down to 15 or 20% every couple of weeks or so.
*However if you dont plan on using it for a few hours, turn it OFF (plugged in or otherwise), ...*you dont want it both always plugged in AND in sleep mode
LiPo (lithium polymer, same as in your macbook) batteries do not need conditioning. However...
LiPo batteries do NOT like to be dropped down to 15% or so often,....key word being "often"
A lot of battery experts call the use of LiPo cells the "80% Rule" ....meaning use 80% of the charge or so,.. then recharge them for longer overall life.
Never let your Macbook die from power, you can corrupt files that way, and the batteries do not like it.
The only quantified abuse seen to LiPo cells is instances when often the cells are repeatedly drained very low.
*Also, if youre going to store your macbook away for a few weeks or more,... make sure it has at least a 50% or so charge.
*Cycle count / use/ lifespan is one thing that cant be countered.
Proper treatment is another thing. Just because LiPo batteries dont need conditioning in general,.. does NOT mean they dont have an ideal use / recharge environment. Anything can be abused even if it doesnt need conditioning.
Just use and enjoy your new macbook,
From Apple on batteries:
but really all you would keep in mind is --"consider 15-20% is the same as 0% and recharge it"
and best "tip" is if its near a socket, .....plug it in as long as you can (especially at home) since cycle count on the battery are the "miles that wear out the tires (battery)"
Important useful info on your Lithium cells as compiled from battery experts:
Heat increases battery performance but shortens life by a factor of two for every 10°C increase above 25–30°C (18°F above 77–86°F). This is yet another important reason for the cooling of any notebook, not just keeping the processor and GPU cool. Mavericks lower power tasking (app nap) and combined with the cool running Haswell processor both greatly protect battery life on your Macbook now more than ever before.
Good news: *Mavericks not only increases a single charge cycle for longer battery use off a full charge,… but also prolongs the overall long term life of the LiPo battery in a Macbook by reducing the load conditions the battery experiences from heavy peak-use.
Counting cycles is not conclusive because a discharge may vary in depth and there are no clearly defined standards of what constitutes a charge cycle on a Lithium Ion battery empirically. Similar to a mechanical device that wears out faster with heavy use, so also does the depth of discharge (DoD) determine the cycle count.
The shorter the discharge (low DoD), the longer the battery will last. If at all possible, avoid full discharges and charge the battery more often between uses. Partial discharge on Li-ion is fine.
Frequent HIGH depth of discharge rates (draining the battery very low) on a Lithium battery will hasten the lowering of maximum battery capacity.
Although better performing when warm, lithium polymer batteries live longer when kept cool.
Lithium cells prefer draining conditions at a steady pace rather than fast pulsed or quick discharges, …this fact is idealized now with the Haswell and Mavericks app-nap low power tasking for battery use.
App nap:

Re: Can i charge the battery in between calibrations cycles? in response to LynGeoTech Solved
Apple notebooks with non-removable batteries do not require calibration - this comes directly from an Apple Knowledgebase article. Apple recommends that users do not keep their notebook charging 24/7/365 and suggests that they be used on battery power at least once a month. I have a repeating calendar event so I don't forget. As you use the computer on battery power you will get a warning when the computer is on reserve power. In other words there's not much time left. At that point you should always plug it back in if possible. If you aren't in a location where you can plug it in if you'll be able to plug it in within the next 30 minutes or so, put it to sleep, otherwise shut down. The most damaging thing you can do to your battery is totally discharge it.
To repeat. Your MBA doesn't need calibration. It should be used on battery power at least once a month. Never totally discharge the battery. Living by these rules my 2009 MBP 's battery health remains over 93%. Not bad for a 4 year old battery, eh?

IBRD Stunner!
By JosephTree
I had no plan to connect with my BF brethren this IBRD. Life has been way too...rich, let's say, and I am just happy to get out running on some sort of regular basis.
Then last week my son, 14 years and 11 months old, comes home from school telling me that he'd run a mile, his first, in gym and that he enjoyed the experience. Furthermore, he wanted me to help him learn to run. I was shocked and delighted, but didn't want to snuff the tender flame with too much enthusiasm, so I just gave him my warm appreciation and said we could go out "soon." He slept in on Saturday as I went out for an early 6 miles, but told me he REALLY wanted to go for a run on Sunday, as long as I got him up early enough that he could be sure no one would see us. (!?)
So, there we were at 07:00 on Sunday. He asked for shorts and I gave him an old pair of mine...

Testing the Theory: Shod vs. Barefoot Speed
Barefoot Terry
A few people have noted in various blogs and articles that runners who decide to go barefoot sacrifice speed. I set out to test the theory. Here's what happened.
Five years ago, I started racing. In my first race, the 2006 Cowtown Half Marathon (now the Urban Cow) in Sacramento, California, I set a 1:50:05 (8:23/mi) personal best. I was 33 years old at the time – and shod.
Over the next two years, I ran three more half marathons and three full marathons. Only once did I come close to beating that PR – missing it by only 53 seconds in a 2007 race. At that time, I aspired to achieve a 1:30 half marathon and a sub 4-hour marathon.
After my third shod marathon...

The Germany/Austria/Marburg Barefoot Running Group
By Gueng
The Marburg barefoot running group was started on 1st April, 2014.
We are running on a weekly basis, every Tuesday evening, except the Winter months (Dec. - Jan. - Feb.).
Our routes are normally between 5 and 8 km long, more or less flat and have barefoot-friendly surfaces (mostly smooth asphalt and concrete). Participation is free of charge.
The rule is that every participant should run at least a small portion of the way (say 1 km) skin-to-ground. Interestingly, it turns out that many barefoot newbies are able to run more than half of the way s2g! Most of us carry our shoes with us in green light backpacks which were provided to us by a large German health insurance company.
Yesterday we were ten runners (five female, five male) which was more than ever before. Weather was great for barefoot...

Cristiano Ronaldo win 2013 FIFA Ballon d'Or as world's top player
After finishing second in FIFA's Ballon d'Or voting three of the past four years, Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo has broken through and won the award given to the world's best player.
The presentation took place Monday in Zurich, Switzerland.
"There are no words to describe this moment," an emotional Ronaldo said, according to the Daily Mail. "I want to thank all my colleagues and companions at Real Madrid, in the Portuguese team and my family who are here with me."
The 28-year-old scored 66 goals in 56 appearances for both Real Madrid and Portugal.
Ronaldo was recognized as the world's best player in 2008, as well, when he was with Manchester United.
Lionel Messi had been the recipient of the award in each of the past four seasons, and he was again a finalist this year along with Franck Ribery.

From the ridiculously hilarious Charlie Saikley Volleyball Tournament this past weekend at Manhattan Beach, Calif, which is one-third Halloween, one-third AVP Tour event and one-third beer festival:
Don't Hassle the Hoff
Kinda Good
Jamaican Me Crazy
Hotter Than Last Night
Most Interesting Mortgage Men in the World
Queens of Denile
South Bay Clergy
Every team at the tourney wears matching outfits. There were teams dressed like 1970s Lakers (complete with Afros), superheroes (with capes), golddiggers (painted all gold with gold shovels in their garters), Oompa Loompas (with suspenders), men playing in house dresses, and Wilma Flintstones.
But by far the best team were the guys playing in Masters caddies outfits, in dead-on Augusta National white caddy bibs, with authentic-looking green caddy hats, and each with the names of a Masters winner on their back. After each game, they'd actually rake the sand with green rakes. They even had officials in green jackets who would hold up "Quiet" signs.
Absolutely nobody obeyed.
