By Kent Somers, The Arizona Republic
TEMPE, Ariz. Should old acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind?
Sure, when they go 16-32 in three NFL seasons.
The Arizona Cardinals ushered in the New Year Monday by ushering out coach Dennis Green, firing him with one year left on his contract. They also started the process of finding his replacement and announced a new three-year contract for Rod Graves, vice president of football operations.
And all you did was watch bowl games, but, then, you probably had a better year than the Big Red.
"In the final analysis, when you look at the three years, we didn't win enough games," said Michael Bidwill, vice president and general counsel, who informed Green on Monday morning that he had been fired. "I think Dennis Green understands that in this league you've got to win games. We're all sorry it didn't turn out."
Green did not meet with reporters and did not return phone calls.
The Cardinals wasted little time embarking on their search for the team's seventh head coach since moving to Arizona in 1988. Bidwill and Graves identified six candidates:
• Tennessee offensive coordinator Norm Chow
• Houston assistant head coach Mike Sherman
• Chicago defensive coordinator Ron Rivera
• Indianapolis assistant head coach/quarterbacks coach Jim Caldwell
• Pittsburgh offensive coordinator Ken Whisenhunt
• Steelers assistant head coach/offensive line coach Russ Grimm.
Sherman's interview is scheduled for Thursday at the team's Tempe facility. Other interviews have yet to be scheduled.
The Cardinals will reveal other names after they've contacted other teams for permission to interview them. Graves didn't rule out interviewing college coaches.
Graves and Michael Bidwill spearheaded the process that resulted in Green's hiring in 2004. That didn't turn out well, but Graves and Bidwill again are leading this search.
"When you look back at the hiring of coach Green, I think most people believe we had made the right decision," said Bidwill, whose father, owner Bill Bidwill, did not meet with reporters. "I think we've learned a lot. I think we're going to be very successful. I think you look at the team we have, the players we have, we've got a lot of talent here. This is a much different situation than it was three years ago, in terms of talent."
The record under Green didn't reflect that, which is why he's unemployed today, although he'll paid $2.5 million for the final year of his contract.
The Cardinals think they are close to being a playoff contender, and most of their key young players are under contract. That's why they gave a new contract to Graves, who has worked without a deal since last May.
Graves has been in charge of football operations since 2003, and the team is 20-44 in that time.
"When you look at where the team is in terms of our talent and in terms of the football operations, in terms of how we draft and in terms of how we signed free agents, Rod has done a very good job in terms of building the talent, particularly on offense," Bidwill said.
When asked if there would be changes in the front office, Bidwill dodged the question.
"I think today's news is Rod's (contract) extension and then the head coach search that we're embarking on," he said.
Although the Cardinals think they are close to winning, changing coaches is not an easy transition to go through, said safety Adrian Wilson, who will be playing for his third coach in seven seasons.
"It separates the locker room," he said. "The head coach brings in guys he wants. It's the worst feeling in the world. You feel like you're starting all over again. It's a situation where we have to see what happens. Ain't nothing we can do."
Dismissed along with Green were assistants with whom he had close ties, including tight ends coach Carl Hargrave, secondary coach Richard Solomon, special teams coach Gary Zauner and strength and conditioning coach Steve Wetzel. Running backs coach Kirby Wilson, former offensive coordinator Keith Rowen and quality control coach Bill Khayat are also free to pursue other jobs.
The team is retaining several coaches, at least for now, including assistant head coach/linebackers Frank Bush, defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast, offensive coordinator Mike Kruczek, offensive line coach Steve Loney, defensive line coach Larry Brooks, quality control coach Rick Courtright and receivers coach Mike Wilson.
They will interview with the new coach, who has the choice of retaining them.
Green's dismissal, coming a day after a 27-20 loss to San Diego in the season finale, surprised no one. The Cardinals finished 6-10, 5-11 and 5-11 in his three seasons. This year was particularly disappointing, because the team moved into a new stadium and sold out every game.
The Cardinals won their season opener then lost eight straight, including three heartbreaking games at home.
Green's tenure was defined by his impatience, stubbornness and rash decisions. That was evident again this year when he fired Rowen as offensive coordinator Keith Rowen the day after the Cardinals blew a 20-0 lead and lost to the Bears on Monday Night Football.
In three years, Green fired seven assistant coaches and started five different quarterbacks. Graves and others were criticized for not stopping some of those moves.
But the Cardinals knew from Green's history in Minnesota that he had a reputation for audacity, and he was successful there, taking the Vikings to the playoffs eight times in 10 seasons.
"We knew he would be making bold moves as he came in," Michael Bidwill said. "As Rod said, he supported many of those moves because we saw coach Green as somebody who was very innovative and bold in terms of how he would mold a team. I think in some areas we've made a lot of progress. Unfortunately, we didn't have enough wins."

Program Details
City University of Seattle is approved by the Washington State Professional Educator Standards Board to offer a shorter, alternative route to becoming a teacher. This program is designed for people who have prior experience and want to complete a teaching program in one year.
There are four routes that students can take in this flexible and affordable program — each route has been developed to suit students in unique life circumstances.
- Route 1: for students who are employed by school districts as "classified instructional employees," or paraprofessionals who have an associate degrees.
- Route 2: for students currently employed by a school district who have a bachelor's degree.
- Route 3: for students who have a bachelor's degree, who are not employed by a school district, but have documented career expertise in a subject-matter shortage area such as Special Education; English Language; or Math.
- Route 4: for students with a bachelor's degree who are employed by a school district at the time of application and hold a conditional teaching or emergency substitute certificate.
Program includes…
- Saturday classes
- A mentored internship program within a school district
- Preparation for the edTPA exam
Key Admission Requirement
- Passage of the WEST-B statewide basic skills exams
- Completion of the WEST-E/NES subject matter assessments required by RCW 28A.410.220 (3) for the endorsements being sought
- District or building validation of qualifications, including one year of successful student interaction and leadership as "classified staff" for Routes 1 and 2.
This program prepares students to teach and create curriculum in shortage areas such as Math, English Language Learner (ELL) and Special Education.
Speak with a CityU advisor to get started on your route to becoming a teacher today.
Dr. Craig Schieber
A Q&A with Dr. Craig Schieber
Q: What is your terminal degree in and where did you get it from?
A: Doctor of Education from Seattle Pacific University. I majored in Instructional Leadership with an emphasis in Information Technologies.
Q: What do you do for fun?
A: Direct theater productions, run, read, garden.
Q: Do you teach any classes?
A: Right now I'm just doing field supervision, however in the past I've taught technology, curriculum, and assessment classes.
Q: Why did you decide to go into education?
A: I am fascinated by the growth process and the exchange of ideas. Joy comes in seeing and helping people realize their potential and beyond.
Q: Why do you enjoy serving students at CityU?
A: Because most of our students are non-traditional university students I am always honored to help them realize their dreams. These are courageous and strong people, most of whom are in the adult flow of life with responsibilities such as having a family, paying a mortgage, working a job, etc.
Q: What is one thing that you tell students?
A: They will get a relevant, practical education from dedicated practitioners.
Q: Any fond CityU memories that you can share?
A: My fondest memories come from times I have supervised and observed our students interning and student teaching in classrooms. Watching them learn our teacher's art of reaching out and helping and nurturing kids' natural curiosity is the best kind of memory.
Q: What might you tell a student who was thinking of attending CityU?
A: They will get a relevant, practical education from dedicated practitioners. They should be prepared and open to grow. They will come out of our program a different person. In the program we will work with them as they prepare to join a proud profession, which once they join, they wear 24 hours a day. It is a calling and a full life commitment.
Q: What is something you've learned from end-of-course evaluations that you applied later on?
A: This is one that has been confirmed by course evaluations. The most common cause of student dissatisfaction in classes is lack of feedback from instructors on student work. That is our major focus to find ways to get student expectations and instructor performance closer together on this all-important instructional experience.
Maria Gross
A Q&A with Maria Gross, Academic Program Director
Q: What did you study, and where did you graduate from?
A: Ed.D. Educational Leadership, Higher Education, University of Washington
Q: What do you do for fun?
A: Travel, cook, read
Q: Why do you enjoy working at CityU?
A: I enjoy CityU because of its practitioner-based model through which application of concepts is foundational to education.
Q: What's one thing you always tell your students that may or may not relate to your class?
A: I love teaching and expect and welcome them to challenge me and our education system.

Unified approach helping tackle truancy
A whole-of-community approach to stamping out truancy in Carnarvon has been labelled a success.
The Compass Alliance Group formed in March and is made up of a number of bodies including the shire, police, Department for Child Protection and the local chamber of commerce.
Saeed Amin from the group says attendance has increased from 71 per cent to 74 per cent in the past six months.
He says it is a significant step forward but there is still a way to go to reach its goal of an 80 per cent attendance rate.
"The challenge is always about keeping that momentum but certainly agencies have come together for a collective improvement in Carnarvon and there's a really good understanding that unless people work together then we're certainly not going to make any sustainable improvements," he said.

Colonial. Elongate tubular body, often narrowed posteriorly, lying within a common, very large gelatinous matrix which may be several centimeters in diameter. Complete colony shape highly variable but approximately spherical and sometimes flattened with an overall green tinge due to zoochlorellae in the zooids. The peristomial disc is raised above the peristomial rim. Macronucleus elongate and ribbon-like. Most easily confused with Gerda which is solitary and with Gonzeella in which the colonies are hollow and round with the zooids embedded only in the outer layer of the gelatinous housing.

62 - 73 Final
Hoffarber leads Minnesota over Ohio State 73-62Jan 9, 2010 - 10:53 PM By DAVE CAMPBELL AP Sports Writer
MINNEAPOLIS(AP) -- Blake Hoffarber scored a career-high 27 points, with six 3-pointers in the second half, to lead Minnesota to a 73-62 victory over Ohio State on Saturday.
Lawrence Westbrook added 15 points for the Gophers (12-4, 3-1 Big Ten), who bounced back in a big way from a 79-60 defeat at fourth-ranked Purdue earlier in the week. Hoffarber, the conference's leading 3-point shooter at better than 50 percent, had only three points in that game.
Evan Turner got going in the second half and gave the Buckeyes (11-5, 1-3) 19 points, eight rebounds and seven assists in his second game back after missing more than four weeks while broken bones in his back healed.
The rest of the Buckeyes had some trouble yet again on the road. David Lighty had 15 points, but he fouled out. Dallas Lauderdale managed only two points and missed 3 of 5 free throws.

Water Resistance - Although we may pressure test a watch prior to being shipped, we do not guarantee any watch to be waterproof and do not cover any water issues under any type of warranty. The reason is because there are too many life factors that can contribute to a watch not being water resistant anymore. Statistically, this applies to even the most careful of watch wearers ...show moreshow less
Box and Papers - All box and papers do is guarantee the box and papers are authentic. The bad guys know that people put trust into original papers so by putting genuine papers with a fake watch allows them to pull off a scam...and when the buyer finds out down the road the watch was fake, the scammer is long gone. The only way to check authenticity is by having the watch checked. As with most preowned watches, the original box and/or papers are not available because they were not retained by the original owner. ...show moreshow less
Warranty – This warranty applies to the movement of the watch only. Watch movements are warrantied to perform as described in the BeckerTime item description during the warranty period. This warranty does not include the battery, strap, links, clasp, case, crown, bezel, dial, hands, screws, crystal and/or diamonds. Damage to a watch due to accident, neglect or mistreatment is not covered by this warranty. Mistreatment includes modification of the watch through the addition or substitution of parts or accessories not provided by Beckertime and will void this warranty. Also not included is the loss or theft of the watch or any damage done by loss or theft. Damage caused by fire, pressure or natural disaster is not covered. This warranty does not cover any water damage—including crystal fogginess, movement damage, dial or bezel damage, seals, gaskets, liquid penetration and any issues pertaining to water. This warranty replaces the original manufacturers warranty. ...show moreshow less
Processing Time - All items are shipped from our facility FOUR (4) BUSINESS DAYS from the date payment is received. Please be patient as this processing time is necessary to prepare each shipment with the very best care. ...show moreshow less
International Bidders - Most countries charge customs duties taxes and fees on items being imported from the USA. You are responsible to know your Country's importing laws and taxes.

A lot of people nowadays have social media accounts. This is because people can express themselves and share content that they've found on the internet.
Now, sharing content that you've found on the internet is not bad per se, but if you share multiple contents at once, your friends might find it obtrusive and annoying.
If you have an Apple mobile phone, you're in luck! There is actually an app that allows you to share content through your various social media accounts and have the app post these contents at a different time (meaning, not all at once).
The app I am referring to is the Buffer App for the iOS. Buffer does just what its name implies; it buffers the content you want to share with your Social media networks and it posts them in regular intervals so as to not bombard your friends and followers with content at the same time.
There is also an option that allows you to post all of the content at once in all of your social media accounts if that is your thing.
A lot of people actually love this Apple mobile phone app because it has a smooth integration between multiple social media networks such as Twitter, Google+, Facebook, Pinterest, and so much more.
This app also lets you in on some statistics on the posts and contents that you have shared through your social media accounts. You will see how many people liked your posts, you will see how many commented on them, and so much more!
You can also set an option where you want to get notified. You can set the app to notify you within the Buffer app or you can also set the app to notify you through your email account.
The Buffer App for the iOS devices also integrates with a lot of browsers through their browser extension as well.
This Apple mobile phone app is free to use but you can also opt for different plans if you so desire. For the free subscription, you get to connect up to 5 different social media accounts and have 10 scheduled posts per profile at a time.
If you want to avail their "Awesome Plan", you can have up to 100 posts and you can connect to 10 different social media accounts at a time. Also, you can have an RSS feed integration if you subscribe to this plan as well.
And lastly, for corporations and small business, you can opt for their Small Business plan which lets you connect up to 25 different social media accounts, 5 team members and contributions, a whopping 2,000 scheduled posts per profile, an RSS feed integration, and all of the other features that are listed on the basic and awesome plans.

This was my entry to the Flower Power showcase, but it didn't turn out remotely as I imagined it in my mind's eye. I'm just not enough of an artist. Still, I liked how the colors worked together.
I liked the colors enough that I wanted to use them to create a more wearable look to wear to work today. I took all but the black shadow used to outline the "flower petals" and created this more wearable look. Yellow isn't the best color on me because I have such a heavy yellow undertone to my skin, but so what? I love yellow and refuse to discriminate against it!

Apple's upcoming iPhone will reportedly feature a pressure-sensitive home button.
Bloomberg reports that this new button won't physically click, but will use haptic feedback technology instead. This has the added benefit of reducing the number of mechanical parts, which would in turn lead to a lower failure rate.
It's also believed that the new home button could be better for preventing water and dust from getting into the innards of the device. The removal of the headphone jack, should this actually happen, will also improve the water-resistant properties of the device.
Bloomberg's report also details the dual-camera setup. Apparently, each sensor will "capture colour differently" to "produce brighter photos with more detail." These are then combined to produce sharp photos with vivid colours, as shown by the Huawei P9.
Apple is expected to announce the new iPhone in September, possibly as soon as September 7.

Reading Marx in the Information Age
Reading Marx in the Information Age: A Media and Communication Studies Perspective on Capital Volume 1
By Christian Fuchs
Critical media theorist Christian Fuchs provides a thorough, chapter-by-chapter introduction to Capital Volume 1 that assists readers in making sense of Karl Marx's most important and groundbreaking work in the information age, exploring Marx's key concepts through the lens of media and communication studies via contemporary phenomena like the Internet, digital labour, social media, the media industries, and digital class struggles.
Through a range of international, current-day examples, Fuchs emphasises the continued importance of Marx and his work in a time when transnational media companies like Amazon, Google, and Facebook play an increasingly important role in global capitalism. Discussion questions and exercises at the end of each chapter help readers to further apply Marx's work to a modern-day context.
The book is especially suited as accompanying literature for existing reading groups, new reading groups and individual readers of Marx's "Capital". It provides a general introduction for each chapter as well as connections to media and communications topics.
The chapters can be read all together in combination with Marx's book, but are also written in a way that they can be used in modules and reading groups as companions to single chapters in Marx's "Capital". At the end of each chapter, there are multiple exercises that allow readers a practical understanding of Marx.
The above text is from the publisher's description of the book.

Driving/Moving Help
I just posted this to our church e-mail list, and also sent it out at work, but I'm posting it here too, in case any Reno readers can help out.
Hi, all! As some of you are aware, my elderly disabled dad and his girlfriend (also elderly and not in great shape) are moving here this weekend. On Tuesday 10/21, Gary and I plan to move them into their new apartment with minimal furnishings, as their moving vans won't have arrived yet. We have a bed and some tables and chairs for them, and I'm going to rent a U-Haul van to move the stuff, which won't fit in my car.
Here's the hitch: I'm the only driver in this group (Dad's friend still drives, but I'm not sure I want her driving my car, especially since she needs double cataract surgery). If I leave my car at the U-Haul place, I'll have no way to transport three other adults to the new digs without making multiple trips. So I'd like to ask if anyone can come with me to the U-Haul place, drive my car back to my house when I drive the U-Haul back, and then drive two other people to the new apartment in my car.
At that point, your work should be done, since another friend will be showing up with his truck (hauling a daybed for the new place) and can help us unload.
This should take two or three hours, tops, and we'll be indebted to you for life. (Other payment or bribes of Gary's homecooked food may also be possible.) We'd like to do this in the morning, but can be flexible depending on your schedule.
If anyone's available, please let me know. I know the timing's tricky, since it's a workday.

In today's Catholic Daily Roundup, top stories include a bipartisan sentencing reform bill introduces by President Obama, LGBT Catholics urging Pope Francis to meet with them when he visits the United States, and Boy Scouts of America's end to its ban on openly gay scout leaders and reactions from religious institutions.
"We must restore hope to young people, help the old, be open to the future, spread love. Be poor among the poor. We need to include the excluded and preach peace." (Pope Francis)
Today's Gospel: "Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears ought to hear." (Matthew 13:43)
In the News:
- President Obama announced that it is likely a sentencing reform bill will pass through Congress as early as this year. Two weeks ago, the House Oversight Committee became at least the third congressional panel to highlight issues in the justice system. They invited governors, Senators, members of the House, and experts to discuss potential ways to reduce the number of inmates in federal prison.
- On President Obama's historic trip to Africa, he ended the trip by calling on African leader to address the "most urgent task" of creating jobs and opportunity for the next generation in order to avoid the risk of violent unrest as the population rises in the coming decades.
- In Libya, a court sentenced Saif al-Islan Gaddafi, son of the deposed leader Col Muammer Gaddafi, and eight others to death over war crimes linked to the 2011 revolution. Said al-Islan was not in court, he is being held by a former rebel group from the town of Zintan that refuses to hand him over.
Pope Francis and church news:
- Gay and transgender Catholics urged Pope Francis to take a stand in a formal letter. Groups representing gay and transgender people, Catholics, and Hispanics said the church in the United States is experiencing a "pastoral crisis" over LGBT issues and asked Pope Francis to meet with them while he is visiting the United States.
- Boy Scouts of America ended its ban on openly gay scout leaders. The ban will be completely lifted aside from allowing church-sponsred Scout units to maintain the exclusion for religious reasons. Even with religious exemption, the Mormon Church is not happy about the news and is considering ending their long relationship with the group.
- Enthusiasm is growing over Pope Francis' visit among Hispanic Catholics in New York, Philadelphia, and Washington D.C. The Argentine-born Pope's papacy means a lot to Hispanics. Alma Reyes, a 53-year-old Mexican immigrant who cleans homes explained, "Many here are undocumented, and this encyclical letter talks about all that. The racism, the difficulties ... these are issues that affect the Hispanic community."
CACG would like to equip lay Catholics with the resources necessary to promote the common good in their communities. That's why we have the Catholic daily roundup. You can sign up for this short and digestible daily e-mail here.
We always appreciate your support to continue our work into 2015. Please invest in us today.

The Enlightenment
Age of Reason
Explorations in Science and Nature
Dramatic developments in
science spurred by Bacon,
Locke and Newton give rise
to a culture of curiosity and
observation of the natural world.
Challenging the old order with
ideas of liberty and
without the shackles
and religious dogmas of Old Europe
Politics and Authority
Colonialism and Slavery
Literary Style
Newton, William Blake, 1795, Tate Britain
Scientific developments lead to questions about our part
in nature and the universe, placing religious beliefs
and God's existence in doubt.
The Enlightenment placed humankind at the center and
debated the significance of "man" and his rational
empirical views of human understanding and
the role of the senses
came to dominate in the
eighteenth century.
The 18th century was a century when
rationality and intellectual rigor
a growing interest in empiricism and how it affects our knowledge about self and society.

The ethos of the Enlightenment:
the scientific domination of nature to protect humans from calamity and need
rational and just forms of social organization rather than a state founded on superstition, oppression, and the arbitrary practice of power.
belief in human perfectibility and
religion is
incapable of verification
and is seen as hostile to the development of reason and the progress of science
New literary forms such as the periodical essay and the novel emerge and the novelty of criticism and satire make their mark on the literary landscape.
discussion of philosophical questions about human nature and civil society intensifies
belief in Reason and rationality
as the ultimate saviors of humanity.
The eighteenth-century writers and scientists exalted
reason and logic as the new masters of our fate.
Mystery and superstition gave way to empirical knowledge.
The world with its mysteries was finally disenchanted by science and knowledge—
A distinct turn away from divine authority toward individual authority:
Locke looks to the understanding, or the individual's mind, to ratify the acceptability of ideas rather than to divine or ecclesiastical authority.
The eighteenth-century fascination with cognition, scientific inquiry, and rational argument.
Locke's theory of government assumed that all
men were born free and then exchanged their
liberty for a safe, civil society headed by a
legitimate authority.
Literature of the period often represented the changing views of science and nature, exploration, world travel, and empire.
Nature and nature's laws lay hid in night,
God said, Let Newton be, and all was light.
Ordering of the natural world into mathematical laws and observable phenomena is a mark of the Enlightenment and even poetry found science as its proper object.
Newton's letter on the principles of light and color provides the intellectual context for the later poetic praise.
Following clear empirical methods based in mathematical precision and verifiable results, it is paradigmatic for the age.
The influence of science and reason on poetry was, however, the main target of Jonathan Swift's satire and mockery in the third book of Gulliver's Travels.
The developing genre of the novel :
Aphra Behn's Oroonoko, regarded as the first novel in English
Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels
James Boswell's The Life of Samuel Johnson, an example of an early biography as a literary genre
The epistemological revolution of the seventeenth century allowed for the emergence of modernity.
but fear not,
it will be re-enchanted anew when the Romantics take possession of it.
Alexander Pope's couplet here captures a sense of wonder and respect Newton inspired in the poets of the following generation.
only certain men
namely, white, property-owning men of education were free whereas women and children, labourers and slaves were not included.
But not all men,
The question of proper political authority was key to enlightenment thinkers.
A profound impact on the shaping of the American Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson in 1776:
We hold these truths to be
, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
The emerging sense of individualism that is strongly reflected in the context of the Enlightenment
Works focusing on "the noble savage" recall an idealized state of nature and grace prior to civilization, looking for a natural explanation of political organization and legitimacy of power.
O might I here
In solitude live savage, in some glade
Adam in Paradise Lost, Book IX

Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?, Paul Gauguin, 1897-98, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Humanism, inherited from the Renaissance and reflected in the spirit of the age, also called for the end of slavery.
This is an act so unnatural, a crime so monstrous, a sin so God-defying, that it throws into the shade all other distinctions known among mankind.
William Lloyd Garrison, founder of the American Anti-Slavery Society in 1833
A divisive issue in America as new territories were being "added" to the United States, and debate raged about whether they should be slave or free states.
The Enlightenment, in the guise of "the universal ideas of reason, and freedom from superstition, provided a moral basis for colonial domination through capitalist expansion and missionary terrorism in Africa and the Middle East" (Lyotard).
This was the "enlightened" burden of the white man, to civilize the other in the name of Reason.
The age of exploration and discovery preceding the Enlightenment made European powers immensely rich but also brought the scourge of racism and colonial exploitation.
In the eighteenth century, Britain's expansion into an empire was fueled by slavery and the slave trade — a source of profit that belied the national self-image as a haven of liberty.
Colonialism as part of the liberating mission of the West.
Unknown countries and ways of life are discovered but encounters with other peoples are vicious and exploitative, driven solely by profit.
Mixed together from different regions of Africa, without
common language or background, the slaves were

Rising prosperity at home had, in fact, been built on inhumanity across the seas.
European rule meant slavery for others.
And Europeans avoided guilt by arguing that slavery had uplifted the black population, since it had introduced them to Christianity and civilization.
Colonial rule was increasingly advanced and justified as a mission of enlightenment and improvement.

e heroic couplets (Pope, Dryden, Johnson)
But when to mischief mortals bend their will,
How soon they find fit instruments of ill!
Alexander Pope, The Rape of the Lock, Canto III, 125–126.
Use of highly stylized poetic diction and epigrammatic, concise style
But in poetry one cannot expect the lines to behave according to grammatical norms, so don't read with such norms in mind.
Sometimes it is difficult simply to identify the subject, verb, and object and make sense of the sentence structure.
Into this wild abyss,
The womb of Nature and perhaps her grave,
Of neither sea, nor shore, nor air, nor fire,
But all these in their pregnant causes mixt
Confus'dly, and which thus must ever fight,
Unless th'Almighty Maker them ordain
His dark materials to create more worlds,
Into this wild abyss
the warie Fiend
Stood on the brink of Hell
and look'd a while,
Pondering his voyage; for no narrow frith
He had to cross.
Milton, Paradise Lost, 2. 910-20
The syntax of the lines acts out what the sentence actually describes.
The form of the writing reflects the content of Milton's passage, giving us an idea of chaos before Satan enters into it.
In terms of prose, satire is the dominant mode of literary expression through 1740s and continues to have a vital presence throughout the century.
The tone of satire is not necessarily a personal expression of hatred or anger, as in Swift's "Modest Proposal," but has a public signification

dy, hyperbole, understatement, mock-idioms, ficti
al personae, sarcasm, irony, lampoon are some
the satiric devices used in order
to expose or make manifest the reality by distorting it.
Politically perceptive and razor-sharp
Prose style abiding by Lock's dictum where
language should be appropriate for ideas
would come to characterize the lucid, conversational prose of the Enlightenment.
The general misanthropy in the poem anticipates the fourth book of Gulliver's Travels.
GT deals explicitly with the idea that beasts are more reasonable than human beings.
Swift's mock elegy:
"Verses on the Death of Dr. Swift"
shock value is the paradox of actually enjoying a friend's misfortune.
ironic reversal as it allows him to imagine the benefit his misfortune will bring to others.
Gulliver's Travels is Swift's best-known work
a prose satire, a fictional travel narrative and a fable, written in first-person narrative mode
using empirical rhetoric and lucid, descriptive sentences
Descriptions of Lilliput, Brobdingnag, and Laputa satirize different aspects of 18th-C English society — its politics, wars and its new science.
The satire also focuses on the human animal in general, challenging our most fundamental and cherished views of human nature.
The figure of the debased Yahoo as an analogue for the human being seen as deeply disquieting.
The fiction includes details that distort reality in a way that calls attention to their meaning.
Swift also relies on the technique of
The value of Reason, cherished above all during the Enlightenment, is owned by horses and vice is embodied in animalistic humans, who are supposed to be rational creatures.
By creating a fictional voice, or persona, Swift removes himself from the work, which enables him to criticize his world.
This technique gives the satirist a great deal of imaginative freedom and license.
"A Modest Proposal" — another satiric prose essay and a mock proposal by Swift, using the arsenal of irony as its weapon, irony and controlled rage.
But it also documents the colonial history of Ireland and the desperation of its inhabitants.
The proposal to sell one-year-old infants as flesh on the market is patently outrageous and taboo, so we can readily see the irony of Swift's satire.
The assumptions behind the narrator's reckoning of so many
human souls in monetary terms,
particularly within the context of slavery and colonialism that was raging at the time
Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude). "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment.
Immanuel Kant, "Answering the Question: What is Enlightenment?" (178

"A Satyr against Reason and Mankind," written by Rochester — satirical verse that uses the technique of paradox or an apparent contradiction that is nonetheless true.
Puts into question the very nature of humanity and its place in the chain of Being at a time when
the world was at its most anthropocentric.
Swift, through his vertiginous ironies,

GU, SPL/Eng Lit
But I had another reason, which made me less forward to enlarge his majesty's dominions by my discoveries. To say the truth, I had conceived a few scruples with relation to the distributive justice of princes upon those occasions. For instance, a crew of pirates are driven by a storm they know not whither; at length a boy discovers land from the topmast; they go on shore to rob and plunder, they see a harmless people, are entertained with kindness; they give the country a new name; they take formal possession of it for their king; they set up a rotten plank, or a stone, for a memorial; they murder two or three dozen of the natives, bring away a couple more, by force, for a sample; return home, and get their pardon. Here commences a new dominion acquired with a title by divine right. Ships are sent with the first opportunity; the natives driven out or destroyed; their princes tortured to discover their gold; a free license given to all acts of inhumanity and lust, the earth reeking with the blood of its inhabitants: and this execrable crew of butchers, employed in so pious an expedition, is a modern colony, sent to convert and civilize an idolatrous and barbarous people!
Jonathan Swift, Gulliver's Travels, Part IV, Ch. 12

With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 1962 and its subsequent sale on 27 June 1962. The watch was originally sold with a yellow gold bracelet.
In production from 1960 until the mid 1960s, reference 3428 was made in an exceedingly small series only: to date, only ten examples of reference 3428 in yellow gold, including the present watch, have appeared in public.
Its rarity combined with the very good overall condition render the present watch a very desirable collectors' item.
Pre-Lot Text
Reference 2526 and its successor 3428 are undisputedly amongst the most elegant and distinguished vintage watches ever made.
Reference 2526 was introduced into the market in 1952 and was Patek Philippe's first self-winding watch ever made, starting with movement number 760'000 (delivered in July 1953 to Mr. J.B. Champion, one of Patek Philippe's faithful clients. This watch, fitted with a gold bracelet, is today the pride of a discerning collector). The model features the legendary calibre 12-600 AT which was granted Swiss patent No. 289758 in 1953 for "a self-winding mechanism for a wristwatch movement using the energy supplied by a rotary mass causing an eccentric part to transmit a swinging movement to an organ of the mechanism". The first 500 examples of reference 2526 were fitted with the earliest version of calibre 12'''600 without ball bearing, rendering these watches particularly rare and collectable.
The majority of reference 2526 was cased in yellow gold, a small series in pink gold and an exceedingly limited number in white gold and platinum.
Mainly fitted with enamel dials with applied gold baton numerals, the white gold and platinum examples were also available with silvered metal dials with diamond indexes.
Few models of this legendary wristwatch are known to exist to date with different dial colours, materials and layouts, possibly made to special order for the first owner of the watch. Rather sensationally, this auction offers a variety of reference 2526 models fitted with such "exotic" dials:
Lot 219: the only reference 2526 in gold with black dial and luminous numerals, retailed by Serpico y Laino, known to exist
Lot 220: one of only four recorded references 2526 with enamel dial and applied Breguet numerals
Lot 221: a very rare version of a white gold reference 2526 with enamel dial and applied baton numerals
Lot 222: the only reference 2526 in pink gold with unique dial layout featuring baton and Arabic numerals
A paragon of understatement and timeless class combined with a state-of-the art movement, reference 2526 has significantly influenced the popularity of wristwatches featuring enamel dials.
In 1960, reference 2526 was replaced by reference 3428, equipped with the second generation self-winding movement, calibre 27-460 (see lot 218).
Reference 2526 is illustrated in Patek Philippe Wristwatches by Martin Huber & Alan Banbery, first edition pp. 168-169, second edition pp. 213, 216-217.

In addition to being a WWE Superstar, CM Punk is also a huge Chicago Cubs fan.
So, naturally, you would suspect the lifelong fan of the "Loveable Losers" has no love for the rival Milwaukee Brewers or any of their player. When asked about the Brewers recently suspended star Ryan Braun…the "Straight Edge Superstar" was pretty open about whether or not he feels the former National League MVP should be banned for life.
"Absolutely. That way I don't have to sit and listen to any [expletive] apologies," CM Punk told Yahoo! Sports. "Look at Braun. That dude just denied, denied, denied and then he gets caught and goes, 'oh yeah, I'm sorry, I made a mistake.' I don't believe you. You're a liar. You've already proved it publicly in an open public forum. You're a liar. Just shut the [expletive] up and go wash dishes for a living."
But the former WWE champ wasn't done. And it wasn't just Braun that was in his crosshairs.
"If you do drugs, you're a [expletive]," CM Punk added. "If you're on a list from some fancy bourgeoisie pharmacy, you're doing drugs. Regardless of what your personal stance is on that in the guidelines of Major League Baseball, there are banned substances. I don't care if you like the rule. If you're a baseball player, follow the rule. If you don't like it, don't be a baseball player."

passenger window will not go down from drivers side passenger switch
From the driver side, the power window for the passenger, will not go down or
up. It works perfectly from the passenger side, but I have no control from the
driver side. tried putting in a new switch but it did not work What can I do to fix
2 Answers
The master switch was replaced (drivers) so you have an open (circuit) ground control windows...from it to the passengers side. Unless you have a multimeter and understand electrical circuitry and wiring diagrams Don't waste your time. Not difficult but not worth most peoples time have it checked.
Check the wiring that is in the doorjamb of the driver's door. You'll see a rubber hose looking thing that goes from the main body of the car to the door. Remove it and inspect the wires. Oftentimes the wires in this area will wear and break because of the opening and closing of the door. Since the driver's door gets used the most, it's more prone to wear. HTH. -Jim

text: Hello. I currently have both 60 bottle Haier and 16 bottle WE wine cooler units that have served me well for the past few years. With some of the recent sales along with my growing collection, I am looking into purchasing a bigger wine cellar and was hoping to get some good advice from my fellow chowhounders. I am interested in the Eurocave 260 Wine Cellar versus 2 of the Avanti 166 / Vinotemp 188 Wine Cellars. These cellars will be displayed in my living room. Any thoughts of a dedicated wine cellar room went out the door with the recent birth of my 4th kid. I've seen my modest collection fluctuate from a dozen bottles to over a hundred bottles while keeping my hands off a few though there is much faster consumption than collection. Any thoughts from previous owners? TIA !

Top 7 Biggest Mistakes to Avoid When Buying Office Furniture Buying Without A Vision Or Plan All too often, people buy furniture impulsively. Rushing through purchasing decisions, however, could lead to choices that will be regretted for years to come. So before you invest in office furniture, we recommend you:
Cheap jerseys china Before beginning the selection process, think about how an item will be used. If it's a chair, for example, will it be used occasionally (as in a guest chair) or all day (such as a desk chair)? Does it have to be height adjustable or fixed? Should it be light enough to be moved or will it be stationary? The more thought you give to a purchase, the greater likelihood you'll get what you need. Analyze What's Good And Bad About What You Already Have It can also be helpful to solicit input from any staff members who use the furniture on a daily basis. Otherwise, you may never know that chairs are difficult to adjust or that your receptionist really needs a desk with a keyboard tray. Choose Timeless Style Over
small amount. In exchange for the cost of living reductions and increased employee contributions, the city agreed to raise the amount it puts into the pension funds until it hits $473 million a year in 2020. Of that amount, $250 million would likely come from increased taxes. But those changes to the city pension systems are being challenged in court by some unions and retirees, and their arguments are essentially the same as the ones made in the state case: the Illinois Constitution prohibits those reductions in benefits. The state Supreme Court ruling held that protection as absolute, no matter what financial woes the government faces, potentially dealing Emanuel's pension law a fatal blow as City Hall fights the challenge in court.
