Just a few steps away from from Kärnter Straße in the 1st district in the city center of Vienna you find an authentic piece of France. My very favourite French bistro is located at Vienna 's Neuer Markt.
Le Bol is combination of bistro , patisserie, cafe offering typical french cuisine.
Moreover you find various gourmet specialties from France like Kusmi tea, jam or wines can be purchased in the restaurant.
I love the great atmosphere of Le Bol. The low ceilings, soft lighting and depth of the restaurant make a cozy and pleasant dining atmosphere.
The food is always freshly prepared and they serve nice big portions :) You can taste the good quality products.
You find a variety of baguettes and tartines, along with numerous other salads, desserts on the menu. It is always so hard to choose. But I now my favourite: Monsieur Soignon - a warm goats cheese salad. I adore it.
The last time I visited Vienna, I went with my best friend Nina. We were sitting at our favourite place. The huge "table commune" in the centre is so Parisian, giving you the ultimate frenchy feeling.
The coffees are served in nice little bowls.
Monsieur Seguin
"Monsieur Segiun" is the highlight on the menu. It is absolutely the best chèvre chaud I have ever tasted. And I have tried many many salads aux chèvre chaud.
I am obsessed with that salad. I will make it soon and upload the recipe
The sweetness of the fruits and the mustard dressing balances by goat cheese taste. fruit and mustard dressing
I promise, I will definitely try the salad and post the recipe online.
This charming little café and bistro is undoubtedly a place to return to, and in fact, many of the guests are regulars. Next time we'll go on a Saturday morning for breakfast, or perhaps in the afternoon to try their patisseries, or anything and everything else in between. It would be impossible to feel out of place here… casual or elegant work equally well. One comes here simply to enjoy the pleasures of the table, to eat well-prepared food, drink good wine and to share a little bit of the French savoir faire in the process. Bon appétit!
Le Bol ilways busy. especially in summer it is hard to get a free table. waiting time. but its worth it.
For eat in or take away. definitely worth a visit.
see you at
Neuer Markt 14 • 1010 Vienna • Austria

Newsweek just released its new high school rankings, beginning a great adventure as an arbiter of educational quality. I welcome the magazine as the latest member of the School Rating Scoundrels Club, a small organization with many detractors but a desire to be helpful.
Huh? Hasn't Newsweek been doing school rankings since 1998? How can it be a new member?
The confusing answer is that I, the founding member of the club, was the originator of Newsweek's America's Best High Schools list in 1998. I supervised the Newsweek list, based on my Challenge Index ratings of college-level test participation in high schools, until this year when I moved that list and its contrarian methodology to The Washington Post.
I made the switch because the Washington Post Co., my employer for 40 years, sold Newsweek last summer. The Post's new list, called the High School Challenge, has been posted on washingtonpost.com since May 22.
The people who bought Newsweek seemed smart and conscientious. They wanted to talk about keeping me in my freelance list-making role for them. But I said no. They showed their good character by resisting the impulse to toss the list into a trash bin as a relic of the old regime. Instead they have created their own list based on a different way of rating schools.
This takes some courage. Many educators hate these lists. Some principals tell me such ratings trivialize the many wonderful and complex features of their high schools. They have a point, but many readers, particularly parents, tell me they think they are smart enough to figure out what is useful, and what is useless, in my ratings, and others.
I love having a new list to compare to mine. Whenever a competing list comes out, the page views for the Challenge Index list go up as people check out all the alternatives (or in some cases, I suspect, become confused about which list is which.)
Everything I say on this issue should be viewed with skepticism. I am talking about my long-cherished ideas and about what competing news organizations are doing with them . But I have been rating high schools longer than anybody else, and so feel as grandfatherly to new school rankings as I do to Los Angeles residents Ben Mathews, age 2, and Tom Mathews, age 5 months.
The Challenge Index list uses only one factor — the ratio of college level tests to graduating seniors — to rank schools. The Post team putting it together gives readers a wealth of information about each of the schools listed, but the ranks are based solely on participation rates on tests like Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate. Many readers tell me they like the simplicity and the fact that they can easily calculate the Challenge Index rating of any high school in their neighborhood, even if its numbers are not good enough to make the Post's national list. Critics say it is way too simple.
The new editors of Newsweek have adopted the more complex approach of other list makers, such as U.S. News & World Report. They weigh several factors in calculating the rating of each school. Twenty-five percent of the new Newsweek rating is based on the same college-level test participation numbers I use. It also devotes 25 percent to the school's graduation rate and 25 percent to its college matriculation rate. SAT or ACT score averages make up 10 percent, average college-level test scores are another 10 percent and the number of AP courses offered determines the remaining 5 percent.
Newsweek's introduction to its new list says this formula is designed to reflect "a school's success turning out college ready (and life-ready) students." That is an admirable sentiment, but I think giving such weight to graduation, college-going rates, and SAT or ACT scores takes the magazine further from, rather than closer to, its goal.
Graduation rates and college-going rates are closely tied to the average incomes of parents. Schools in affluent neighborhoods usually have graduation rates above 90 percent. Schools in poor urban neighborhoods often graduate only half of their students, if you calculate graduation — as schools have begun to do — by the percentage of ninth-graders who receive diplomas four years later.
Schools that do poorly on those measures try to improve, but few have found a way to escape the iron rule that poverty significantly lowers the chances of getting out of high school and into college. The only sure-fire way for the hard-working staffs of those schools to improve their numbers is to expel the poor students and fill their spaces with rich ones, a strategy that is not only illegal but morally reprehensible.
The Challenge Index also favors affluent schools to an extent, but not nearly as much as the new Newsweek formula. I designed my list to embrace the philosophy of schools like Garfield High School in East Los Angeles, where I first learned the power AP had to change the cultures of poverty-stricken high schools. The schools that qualify for my list have more average and below average students than are usually found on best schools lists. The Challenge Index measures not test scores or graduation rates, but the work of educators trying to get as many students as possible into college-level courses and tests. It recognizes schools that try to raise the level of every child, no matter how low their starting points.
I exclude from my list any public magnet or charter schools that are so selective that their average SAT or ACT scores are higher than the highest average for any regular enrollment school in the country. As a result, the Post's list is full of schools in all kinds of neighborhoods. It has none of the ultra-selective schools with no room for average children who want to improve.
The difference in evident when you look at the average poverty rate for the top 50 schools on the new Newsweek list and the top 50 on the Washington Post's new High School Challenge list. The average portion of low-income students for the 45 schools on the Newsweek list for which that data is available is 19.6 percent. The comparable portion on my list for the 48 schools that gave me poverty data is 31.8 percent.
Such differences produce interesting and useful conversations about what makes a great school. We school rating scoundrels have a good time when we get together to talk about this. I think the new Newsweek listmakers, almost none of whom I know, will enjoy reviewing their data and seeing if there are other measures they want to include.
Newsweek didn't give itself much time to get this list done. High schools received the forms only a month before they were due, not a good idea when you are dealing with busy educators at the end of the school year. Newsweek said it received data from only 1,100 schools, compared to the 4,000 to 5,000 potentially eligible schools we examined for the Post's new list. Newsweek ranked only 500 schools. We ranked about 2,000.
The Post and Newsweek lists share only 22 schools in their top 50. The Newsweek list has 11 schools that I kept off the Post list because of their selectivity, putting them instead on our separate Public Elites list.
The short deadline appeared to leave holes in the Newsweek list. It has no schools from Fairfax or Arlington counties in the Washington area, and missed many other schools around the country that were almost sure to qualify because of their affluent student bodies.
Next year will be different. Perhaps not only Newsweek, but some of the smart educators who have been telling me they know better ways to rate schools will unveil their own lists.
That would be good. I think high schools define American lives, and reveal our most important and persistent educational failings. I look forward to any excuse to write more about them.

I go through stages every few months where I feel completely over emotional and really upset. I feel like all the people around me are actually trying to piss me off or upset me even though I know they aren't because they couldn't care less about how down I have been. I feel really left out and ignored. I'm not an attention seeker, I really hate people like that, but I feel abandoned by those I thought would care. Small little things really bother me and make me so angry. I'm glad I have enough self control not to punch someone out for every small thing that sets me off. Then, after all this emotion and upset for about a week or two, I'll be fine again for another few months.
What is wrong with me?

I've just finished reading Emma Mulqueeny's blog post about What to do when you cannot find a developer. In brief Emma says that she gets a lot of requests from organisations looking for developers to create websites and apps and that the response is that Rewired State is not a tech agency and that they neither have the resources or the remit to do that. She especially says "Obviously if you are trying to do this on mates rates or for equity then you need to move on and find another thing to do in life".
I completely agree with what Emma says in her post. It's definitely not the responsibility of Rewired State to act as a broker between devs and those that need them. That said, she recently passed on a request from Consumer Focus to me asking if I could run a project for them using coders that I knew. I set up the project with two YRS alumni and it ran for a number of weeks, delivered an excellent first release on time and earned the two young programmers great testimonials for university applications and a fair wage for their work (I chose not to take a cut in this instance).
There are developers out there that are keen to find such projects to do – especially for NGOs. The fact this drive has been around for a while is shown by fact the website created by my group in YRS 2010 (Will Work for Peanuts) was specifically designed to bring those groups together.
Rewired State is not the organisation to do this but I think there could be enough momentum for one to be created. It would need to bring together developers, project managers, designers and groups needing web / app work in a way that is realistic about what can be done, how much time can be committed from those involved and what is a fair payment (or at least be extremely up front about lack of payment).
If people are interested in discussing how this might be done drop me a line (firstname.lastname@example.com) and we'll see about starting the conversation after YRS 2012.

THE half-brother of a leading Tory MP has been cleared over allegations of historic sex abuse of a boy under the age of 14.
Charles Napier, 67, pleaded not guilty to inciting the youngster to commit an act of gross indecency with another.
The allegations concerning Conservative John Whittingdale's relative dates back to between February 1978 and February 1979.
Judge Anthony Leonard QC ordered that Mr Napier was found not guilty of the charge as there was no evidence to support it.
Speaking at London's Southwark Crown Court, Prosecutor Peter Clement said: "The evidence against him is very narrow compass and lacks the necessary precision and certainty upon which a jury can safely rely and act."
The evidence against him is very narrow compass
He said the investigations in to the allegation against Mr Napier were met with responses such as "possibly" and "not sure".
The defendant, from Sherborne in Dorset, remains on conditional bail with regard to further allegations.
These are to be dealt with at the same court in the capital on November 18.
Co-defendant Richard Alston, 69, from Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk pleaded not guilty to 10 counts of sex abuse against a child.
The allegations dated from January 1977 to February 1980.
The charges include six counts of indecent assault on a male and four counts of indecency with a child.
His trial, expected to last 10 days, was set for the same court on August 17 2015, with a pre-trial hearing to be held on July 20.
He was released on conditional bail.

In the blink of an eye, our whole world has changed. It's a change that brings me excitement, nervousness and a whole lotta' joy! I wonder what he or she will look like or what this sweet baby will grow to love. While I say many prayers over this growing bump, I feel so grateful for this journey. A journey that has changed everything and it all started on one sweet summer day.
My husband Evan and I have been married a little more than four years. If I had a dollar for every time someone asked us when are we going to get pregnant since tying the knot, our little peanut's college fund would be pretty comfortable. For those who don't know me, I'm a planner. I have both paper and electronic planners, which I live by. Naturally, we knew the goals we needed to accomplish, and where we wanted to be in our marriage, before taking the plunge to become parents. This summer drew near and we both felt God tugging on our hearts to take a leap of faith and begin this next chapter of our lives. NEVER in a million year did we think we would become pregnant right away. I mean, we were just kicking back, having fun, and then BOOM!
I remember the first day I started to feel a little different. I had worked at the news station that morning, met with clients afterwards and then held a corporate health presentation. My day, which began at 3:00 in the morning, started to wind down at about 1:30 in the afternoon. My husband and I were headed up north to visit some friends. I remember feeling so nauseous and exhausted. As we packed up the car, I told Evan that I just HAD to have Chick-fil-a chicken nuggets. Now, if you know me, you know I preach eating a weekly cheat meal. However, this wasn't a planned treat for me. This is something I felt like I needed in order to feel better. Hilarious! I specifically remember thinking, nothing else in this whole world sounds as appealing. Okay, this is WAY out of character for me and I've never said this to my husband before! Evan fulfilled my request and I felt better. This was the first sign that something was off. We returned home that weekend and the changes continued growing. I remember telling my bestie Aisha during one of our many summer walks that I was exhausted. On top of the exhaustion, certain foods just didn't sound good. Foods that I LOVED eating no longer sounded appealing. Aisha said, "You may want to take a pregnancy test." Shortly after, I had taken an awesome workout class, which left me feeling like I was going to be physically sick. Maybe it was just the hard workout that left me sick? Regardless, I thought I better take a test, just in case. I mean, what are the chances we would become pregnant on our first try? So, off to the store I went. I returned home, took the test, and within minutes I found that our lives would change forever.
My husband returned home and we had some errands and shopping to complete. I casually walked into the kitchen where he was rummaging around and said, "We will need to stop at Baby Gap during our shopping." Evan responded, "Okay." He asked, "For who?" He looked up at me to find a big grin on my face. Evan excitingly said, "Wait, for us?" I shook my head yes! It was that moment that I told him Baby Rankin was on the way! He ran over, gave me a big hug and kiss, and off we went grinning from ear to ear.
Before finding out that we ourselves were expecting, I remember my "plan" for when I would become pregnant. Remember that whole planning thing I'm obsessed with? I would eat super clean, never touch anything bad for my baby and workout just like I had been doing. Boy, was I in for a complete surprise! My perfect plan took a different turn, and while I still work hard to be healthy/fit, this baby has had different plans for the way everything would pan out. This is especially true during the first semester. The exhaustion took over my body, which was a huge adjustment for me, as I am a very energetic and on-the-go type of a person. I also experienced a change in food cravings and nausea, mainly during the evening and at night. Wow, this is no joke! While I know many mamas-to-be have it much worse, it still wasn't easy. On a positive note, I did appreciate the confirmation that something was happening with each symptom. I guess you could say I considered the first trimester woes a blessing!
So, I let go of what my "perfect pregnancy" looked like and started to listen to my body on a whole new level. I think this is the first selfless act as a parent. As women, we give up our bodies, so we can bring new life into this world. It's letting go of our bodies and needs, and turning our mindset over to that sweet baby growing ever so quickly in our wombs. It's BEAUTIFUL! While God and my husband are my first priorities, growing this baby is too! I want nothing more than to do everything I can, to ensure that I'm giving this sweet baby everything needed to thrive.
Food and fitness are still a priority, but in a whole new way. I still aim to move my body and increase my heart rate six days a week. While exhaustion has made it challenging, the goal is to walk or get on the elliptical during each of these days. During our outdoor walks, I have added one pound weights to my wrists. It allows me to burn extra calories and amps up the burn. I also feel like it brings a little extra focus and attention to my arms. I also have continued to incorporate weight training, but in a much different way. I have lightened the weight used and also focus on certain areas of the body a bit more. I put a large focus on areas that I feel started to change right away.
There were a few moments during the first trimester in which I recall thinking, how do women do this? I sit here giggling to myself as I break into my second trimester, thankful that I was still able to accomplish my daily tasks. As a health coach, I am constantly encouraging people to eat healthy. It's a BIG part of what I focus on, because I truly believe in the power of food, and how it makes us feel. It's the most powerful drug on this planet. It impacts our physical health, fights disease and illness, balances our mood, and gives us the energy to thrive on a daily basis. As a mom-to-be, I have the power to give this baby what it needs to grow properly. It isn't simply about me and my body's needs, it's also about this little baby growing inside of me. How cool is that? So, I've worked really hard to get my daily whole foods requirements in, follow (most) of the pregnancy "food rules", and drink plenty of water. There are days when I'm fighting to get my vegetables in. There are days when I only want fruit. I've added more whole grains and eggs to my diet. I used to stick with mostly egg whites and vegetables for egg based meals. However, there are SO many nutrients in the yolk for expecting moms. I've put aside what I want, listened more to what my body needs, and responded to my best ability. I've been lucky that my cravings haven't been weird. I've thankfully craved a ton of fruit, whole grain toast and eggs, and ice cream. I try to limit the ice cream and eat organic/dairy free choices. However, that isn't ALWAYS the case and that's okay too.
My goal is to embrace every bit of this journey. Yes, there will be scary and challenging moments, but I also know God has blessed me with a wonderful gift. I promise never to take this opportunity for granted. My passion is to continue sharing/educating people on living a healthy lifestyle, but my job is to create a healthy and safe space for our baby to grow. I also want to encourage other mamas in the making to listen to their bodies and accept the ever growing changes. Our bodies were created to do this and are brilliant enough to tell us what it needs. That's pretty cool if you ask me. As this journey continues, and my body continues to change, I'm reminded that living a healthy lifestyle means letting go of perfection. it reinforces my stance that all we can do is try our very best and give our bodies what it needs to do what God has given us the ability to do!

French President Nicolas Sarkozy telephoned Palestinian leader Mahmud Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday evening to discuss the peace process, a statement from his office said.
The French leader stressed two both men "the urgency of relaunching the peace process and the need for the sides to act in conformity with that objective," according to a statement released late Tuesday.
Sarkozy urged "a rapid renewal of direct negotiations, an extension of moratorium on colonisation and a halt to measures affecting the balances in Jerusalem."
"These negotiations should address all the issues linked to the final status including the questions about the territories on the basis of the 1967 borders" as well as other matters concerning security and Jerusalem, it added.

High Court Supports U.S. On Seizures
By LINDA GREENHOUSE
Published: November 8, 1995
WASHINGTON, Nov. 7— Bolstering the Government's efforts to seize the assets of convicted drug dealers, the Supreme Court ruled today that defendants who agreed to forfeit their property as part of a guilty plea were not entitled to a judge's review of whether the Government was taking more property than authorized by law.
Ordinarily, a Federal judge must review a guilty plea to make sure that the defendant understood his action and that there was a factual basis for the admission of guilt. The question for the Court was whether this procedural protection extended to a review of a forfeiture agreement, which is a common part of a bargain for a lighter sentence in Federal drug cases carrying stiff mandatory sentences.
The defendant in this case, a Wyoming accountant named Joseph Libretti, agreed to forfeit all of his assets as part of a plea bargain that gave him a 20-year sentence for running a big cocaine and marijuana operation in Wyoming and Colorado. He had faced a possible sentence of life in prison.
At the sentencing hearing, Mr. Libretti had a change of heart about the breadth of his forfeiture agreement, which included a number of assets, including a childhood coin collection and a company pension plan, that were not tainted by his drug operation. Criminal forfeiture under Federal law is limited to property obtained from, used in, or intended for use in drug trafficking, although the Government also has the legal right to take untainted assets as substitutes for tainted property the defendant may have disposed of or otherwise made unavailable.
The Federal District Court in Wyoming agreed to give Mr. Libretti a chance to show that any of his assets were not subject to forfeiture. The Government then successfully appealed that ruling to the United States Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit, in Denver.
In a majority opinion today by Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, the Court rejected two challenges Mr. Libretti's made to the forfeiture. By a vote of 8 to 1, the Court agreed with the 10th Circuit that Rule 11(f) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, which requires a judge to review the basis of a plea agreement, did not apply to any forfeiture agreement because forfeiture was part of the sentence rather than part of the criminal offense to which the defendant pleaded guilty. In a dissenting opinion, Justice John Paul Stevens agreed with the majority that Rule 11(f) itself did not give a right to judicial review, but he said a judge had a legal obligation to make an independent review in any event.
The Court also rejected Mr. Libretti's second argument, that he had a right to a jury trial on the appropriateness of the forfeiture order. Noting that there was no constitutional right to a jury determination on sentencing, Justice O'Connor said that because forfeiture was an element of sentencing, there was no right to a jury verdict. Although Federal law provides for a jury verdict on a criminal forfeiture, Mr. Libretti had waived that statutory right when he agreed to plead guilty, the Court said.
Two members of the majority, Justices David H. Souter and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, did not sign that part of the opinion. Justice Souter said there was no need to address the constitutional issue because Mr. Libretti had received adequate notice that he was waiving any right to a jury trial. Justice Ginsburg, emphasizing that judges should take care to make sure defendants understand the right they are giving up, said Mr. Libretti had understood what he was giving up.
By rejecting the argument that a defendant has a constitutional right to a jury trial on forfeiture, the Court left intact a situation that is highly favorable to the Government.
The decision, Libretti v. United States, No. 94-7427, was something of a departure for the Court, which over the last few years has rebuffed the Government's use of its forfeiture authority in several notable cases. The Government setbacks have come in civil forfeiture cases, however, and the ruling today may indicate that the Court is still willing to give the Government considerable leeway to seek forfeiture as part of a criminal case.
Later this month, the Court will hear arguments in a civil forfeiture case from Michigan in which the Justices may be considerably more skeptical of governmental authority. The case, Bennis v. Michigan, No. 94-8729, is a constitutional challenge to a state forfeiture law by a woman who was co-owner with her husband of a 1977 Pontiac and whose husband was arrested for having sex in the car with a prostitute. The car was ordered forfeited under the law, and the wife, Tina B. Bennis, is arguing that the forfeiture violated her constitutional right to due process.

Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Darrell Issa (R-CA) released the following statement regarding the U.S. Supreme Court decision on President Obama's health care law:
"The Supreme Court has ruled to uphold the President's Obamacare. Despite being viewed as Constitutional by a narrow majority, this law will do great harm to our country by imposing new taxes, burying job creators in new red tape and saddling future generations with debt they can't afford. "In selling Obamacare, Congressional Democrats and President Obama assured the American people that it was not a tax. Today, the Supreme Court ruled it was, in fact, a tax. This tax was imposed on the American people amidst an extended recession and is one of the many reasons our economy remains stagnant under President Obama's leadership.
"To date, the Republican-led House of Representatives has voted 30 times to repeal, dismantle and defund Obamacare--and we will continue our efforts to repeal this law and replace it with health care reform that enacts needed reforms without imposing costs that will be paid by subsequent generations.
"In the days ahead, I will work with my colleagues to achieve real solutions to America's health care challenges that do not infringe on doctor patient relationships, impose unpopular mandates, and do not add to the nation's already significant debt.

This was a cute one
The material was a little thinner for a windy summer day or cool morning. The color I got was pink and I thought it looked pretty cool. The only thing I disliked about this was the neckline it felt too big for me

Meet Helena Andrews, sassy, single, smart, and, yes, a bitch—but Tina Fey said it best, bitch is the new black!
When Helena Andrews heard this declaration on Saturday Night Live, her first reaction was How daaare you? But after a commercial break and some thought, she decided to poke at the stereotype that says "successful" and "bitch" are synonyms. Unafraid and frank, she comes to realize that being a bitch is sometimes the best way to be—except, of course, when it's not.
Bitch Is the New Black follows Andrews—sexy, single, and a self-described smart-ass—on her trip from kidnapped daughter of a lesbian to Washington, D.C., political reporter who can't remember a single senator's name. Told in Andrews's singular voice, this addictive memoir explores the roller coaster of being educated and single while trying to become an "actual adult" and find love.
In these candid yet heartfelt essays, she chronicles that ride from beginning to end: a childhood spent on an all-white island, escaping via episodes of The Cosby Show; being set up with Obama's "body guy", Reggie Love, by Maureen Dowd; and the shocking suicide of a best friend. Through it all, Andrews and her gang of girlfriends urge each other to "keep it moving". But no one can stay strong all the time—not even the women we believe do so without trying.
As Andrews says, "Despite the fact that the most recognizable woman in the United States is black, popular culture still hasn't moved past the only adjective apparently meant to describe us— "strong". She is also flawed, tired, naive, greedy, gutsy, frightened, and kind: secret sides that come out in honest detail here.
"The scathingly witty author examines a wide variety of topics that, beneath the jokes and sarcasm, address weighty issues (depression, aging, abortion) with wry astuteness…An irreverent, savvy and sharp memoir." (Kirkus Reviews)

Discussion in 'General Discussions' started by Ravindran, Apr 24, 2014.
Biblically speaking, what is the difference between grace and mercy?
The first time Grace is used in the Scripture is when speaking of Noah:
חֵן chen (khane) n-m.
1. graciousness, i.e. subjective (kindness, favor) or objective (beauty)
(160 verses)
חֵסֵד checed (kheh'-sed) n-m.
1. loving kindness, goodness, compassion, faithful, reproach, shame
(262 verses)
Together in one verse, six times.
Grace is unearned favor.
Mercy is really love in action.
This is a wonderful study to make as it's so much more than the definitions. Grace is showing favor for someone who doesn't deserve it, nor is really looking for it. Like what Jesus did for us on the cross. Grace is buying a brand new coat for a homeless person. Grace is to love your neighbor as yourself. In fact in Greek grace can be substituted for agape (unconditional love).
Mercy is both parties know the one did wrong and the one in Authority chooses to extend love over judgement. Mercy is also recognizing someone having authority over another, such as a king over his subjects, a boss over his staff, a father over a child, and that authority not executing judgment. Mercy is also a reproach and shame, such as what Jesus received on the cross.
Hebrews 4:16 (KJV)
Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
John 1:16 (KJV)
And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.
This is a wonderful verse because when we find that our measure of grace is about to run out, we have more grace. In Greek it's:
καὶ χάριν ἀντὶ χάριτος
"and grace anti grace"Meaning grace upon grace. In fact Paul says this too:
Romans 5:20 (KJV)
Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
The Greek word for "much more abound" is ὑπερπερισσεύω huperperisseuo (hoop-er-per-is-syoo'-o) v. and means to super-abound. Meaning that if the Law was absolute, grace is more absolute with more to spare. If the Law required a $10 fine, grace super-abounds giving $1,000,000!
Mercy is almost an absolution for guilt, whereas grace is receiving something without deserving it.
I hope this helps.
In which case, God has exhibited His grace and mercy right from the time of fall of Adam and Eve.. For their action, banishing them would have been just on God's part.. But He did not.. That should be considered an act of grace right? Same way, God redeeming Israel every time they walked away..
Grace and mercy is common and same in both OT and NT? Is that a fair statement?
Yes. Mercy is from a standpoint of one before another who has authority to do harm and doesn't, whereas grace is one who gives something to another that's not required or even requested for. Like showing up late for work and the boss only winks at you and grace is when he gives you a day off because you just happened to walk by at that moment.
Now for the wrinkle: mercy is also taking punishment for your wrong doing. You're late for work and your boss takes two days without pay for it instead of you. These are simplistic examples of something almost incomprehensible of what God did for us.
I got to talking with my wife about this since I felt there was more and as she was commenting on something else, it clicked:
Grace presents God as a loving Father.
Mercy presents God as God Almighty in all His glory.
I find that Mercy is so over used that it's real meaning has been lost - case in point, this thread. Thanks to books and movies we always hear the victim yell "Mercy" before being killed. With all the words in the English language, there really isn't a proper translation for חֵסֵד (checed).
We are to fear God, but not like the Greeks - begging Zuis not to throw the lightening bolt - but as "OH WOW! How amazing! How small I am in Your presence and in Your love!" Am I making any sense?

Having not played my Epiphone Casino much since I left Jasper its kinda not in the best nick at the minute. When I plug it in the lead doesn't seem to sit in the guitar body right and it makes loud explosive noises whenever I try and move, almost as if I was banging the thing off the ground. Its absolutely impossible to play without it making these bangs. Its like the noise you make when you try to put the lead in and miss so I presume the lead is slipping out. Any one any ideas on how to sort that. I've taken a spanner to the connection to tighten the nut but it doesn't seem to help at all.

If your jack socket has become a bit slack, it's usually a simple matter of opening her up and bending it back into shape... however, the Casino is a semi, is it not? If so, it might be kinda tricky to get in at it, unless it does actually have an opening at the back... you could try some switch cleaner first to see if that sorts it out, but if it is a floppy socket problem, it might be time for a trip to the guitar shop.
If you hurry you could get it in the Telegraph before tomorrow night, and buy a decent guitar...

Aye its all one piece and completely hollow, that coupled with its single coils makes it growl beautfully but impossible to touch the insides of it. What's swtich cleaner btw?
And oi, watch it Flying V boy, I'll have you know Noel Gallagher and Paul Weller play Casinos...oh @#%$...point taken...ah well all the Beatles played them and its good for ska so @#%$ it
Oh aye, thanks Steve

Switch cleaner is a spray that cleans electrical contacts - you can pick it up in Belfast at the Electronics Centre or Maplin. I'm sure you can get it at any wee bits'n'bobs shop like that though. That'll only work if it's a bad connection you're getting, due to dirt or whatever, though. If it is actually a loose connection, then there's nothing else for it but to bend the socket back into shape, or replace it. Easy enough on most regular guitars (unless the socket is a sealed barrel type one), but on your semi, could well be tricky.
Looking at a picture of one, the f-hole is a good bit away from the jack socket, so even jamming a screw driver in there to bend it would be tricky enough... one thing you could try is a better cable - I can recommend the Planet Waves ones - they have "compression springs" to
"ensure positive connection"... very good they are too. Check out [url]http://www.highlystrung.net/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Leads__Guitar__217.html[/url]

Pentastar Engines: Ferrari-Maserati-Alfa Romeo Version
Ferrari has designed a variant of the Pentastar V6 which is very different from the Chrysler version, but uses the same basic design. The engine is primarily used by Maserati, but is expected to go into various Alfa Romeo cars. With twin turbochargers, the Maserati - Ferrari V6 achieves 404 horsepower.
The "F160" blocks were originally cast by a different vendor, but are now made at Chrysler's Kokomo casting plant; they are "cubed" there, and some rough machining is done. They are then fully finished and machined at Trenton Engine, on different machinery and to higher specifications than the run of the mill high-production blocks. They have thick cylinder walls and huge oil passages for durability and cooling under severe conditions.
Chrysler is reportedly working on their own turbocharged V6 engines, which are likely to produce less power but also cost far less to produce.

Fried Apples is nothing new, but when you're on the keto diet, being able to get something sweet from time to time really keeps me going. I slathered it with some cinnamon butter sauce (so much butter with the keto diet, I love it!) and voila! I got a keto-friendly dessert!
I'm about halfway through my Operation Dad Bod Month 1. Eating on the keto diet can make you a little crazy from time to time if you're a carbs sugar lover. It's all the more reason to get creative from time to time. Personal Trainer food includes these awesome butter sauces that are all amazing. One that I couldn't wrap my head around was the cinnamon explosion.
Its been a rough month too with the diet, I've been battling a cold, and we're down to one car at the moment, so it's been hard for me to get to the gym outside of doing some pushups/burpees during the day. But fortunately, I've still been shedding off the pounds. I haven't weighed myself recently, but I feel so much better in my clothes and that's what matters!
But I've found out it goes great in coffee! And with the one apple a day I tried getting a little creative with it. Frying the apple, in a a little butter in the skillet, along with Cinnamon Explosion Sauce makes the house smell amazing!
Then I took the amount of nuts that you're allowed to eat per day with Personal Trainer Food, ground them up in a food processor. I then sprinkled them over the apples while frying. It gives the fried apples nice breaded/cobbler type of texture that hits the spot!
Honestly, even if you're not on the Personal Trainer food program, you've gotta try out these butter sauces. Especially if you're on a high fat/protein low carb/sugar diet. It keeps you sane, and they're freaking amazing!
I'm an IT professional by day. Home cook for the family by night. Follow my blog for easy to make recipes, how-to's and ideas to gather the family at the dinner table!
I love fried apples. As for the Keto diet…it would be an epic failure…but kudos to you for doing it!! This is perfect as a dessert…..or to top some pancakes (sorry I know you can't have any).
It takes some getting used to that's for sure. But there's lot of ways to modify it so that it works for you. I've seen keto pancakes, just haven't tried yet!
How delicious, I love apples and cinnamon and what a great idea to use almonds as an alternative to carbs. I'm afraid I'd be very tempted to try your recipe with waffles though 🙂
OMG it'd be amazing on top of waffles! determined to make some keto friendly waffles now. Thanks Sarah!
These look delicious! I love cinnamon with apples and this would definitely satisfy some cravings!
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
This does sound tasty and I have two friends doing KETO right now who would love this! I am def a carbs and sugar lover so KETO would be so hard for me but my friends are loving it. And I really should give it a try.
This is definitely keto friendly. If they're going strict keto (this is modified and uses a bit more carbs) they may want to leave the nuts out 😉
Cinnamon and apple together can't go wrong.. this s tasty treat
Exactly. Thanks Vidya!
This looks like a yummy dessert whether it's a diet dessert or not. Love the idea of the ground nuts and cinnamon over them.
The best food is when it doesn't matter if its for a diet or not. Thanks Gillian!
I love a nice healthy dessert, this looks wonderful. And of course cinnamon and apple just go together. Great recipe!
Right? When I got the butter sauce, its just made sense to make this!-
Yes! Saving this for the fall when we have so many apples we don't know what to do with them!
It's so warm and cozy too! Thanks Ali!

Located near Independence Mall — the area's largest retail shopping destination — Park Place is one of the most walkable neighborhoods in Wilmington, located between downtown and the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. Grocery stores and other conveniences are just a stroll away, as is Empie Park, which is equipped with tennis and basketball courts. Rent in the Park Place area is significantly lower than downtown Wilmington and mainly consists of full homes, with apartments available as well.

Statistical spectrum sensing is a promising method which can reliably detect the primary users while requiring little prior information in cognitive radio networks. In this paper, we present an overview of sensing methods based on Goodness-of-Fit tests. We discuss the performance of Energy Detector (ED) sensing, Anderson Darling (AD) sensing, Cram'er VonMises(CVM) sensing and Order Statistic (OS) sensing and we compare the results using Monte-Carlo simulations. It is shown that OS sensing outperforms ED sensing, CVM sensing and AD sensing. Next it is shown through simulations that the OS test statistic does not provide maximum probability of detection for a desired probability of false alarm and results are provided showing the regions of high probability of detection for desired probability of false alarm.

Oh I have experienced this and no it isnt pretty. I too cried for about a month and then I realized that life goes on and we have to deal with what comes our way. I have hoped and prayed everyday that I find that one person who will complete me and make me feel like a woman.

Haven't we all at one time or another have had unrequited love? It hurts, it sucks, and yet we still dream that maybe some day. But then we find 'real love' and it is so much better because it is shared.
- Leslie said...
Yes, and it was horrible. I didn't like who I had become and vowed to never leave myself as vulnerable again.
I like your attitude about it.
- J.J. said...
I've been there too. I thought it was love and he just saw me as a "friend". I was devistated, hurt and cried for so long. Sigh.....the real thing is so much better (I know that now).
I'm so glad you're back.
- Margaret said...
Those are my thoughts and experiences almost exactly, Barbara. The guy I was *in love* with got back together with his ex-girlfriend, and they got married. I found out from his mom, and I cried and cried.
Then I got over it. Especially since I know that no woman who has a heart escapes this life without having her heart broken at least once. :o)

I was thrown away on my birthday, after 13 years in the relationship.
I think of him during the week. I guess I feel ok about it. Course I haven't seen him (from a distance) so I have no idea what I will feel when that happens. Since he was always on the road (truck driver) I guess these last several weeks just feel like he's out on the road. The big deal will be when I see him face to face.

Contact made by bulk carrier Mornes with concrete dolphin
- From:
- Marine Accident Investigation Branch
- Date of occurrence:
- 3 November 2009
- Vessel type:
- Merchant vessel 100 gross tons or over
- Report type:
- Completed preliminary examination
Location: Hunterston Jetty, River Clyde, Scotland.
Completed PE Summary: Mornes
A short summary of the accident and action taken:
|Vessel name:
|Thun Ship Management AB
|Ship Owner:
|Erik Thun AB
|Port of Registry:
|Bergen, Norway
|Classification Society:
|Lloyd's Register
|Self discharging bulk carrier
|Steel, Ice Class 1A
|Length overall:
|9125 tonnes
|Date & Time:
|11 March, 0353 (UTC)
|Location of incident:
|Hunterston Jetty, River Clyde
|Incident Type:
|Persons onboard:
During the early morning of 11 March 2009 MV Mornes was preparing to depart from Hunterston Jetty with about 8000 tonnes of coal. The master completed his pre-departure checks and instructed the mooring parties to let go the head and stern lines before he had control of the propulsion system on the bridge.
Soon afterwards the ship started to move up the jetty as propeller pitch was inadvertently applied from the Engine Control Room (ECR). The master attempted to clarify the situation with the chief engineer but he was hampered by poor quality communication equipment between the bridge and the ECR. The 2nd mate let go the after springs as the ship gathered speed and as the master tried to take control of the propulsion. However, the control levers in the ECR and the bridge were misaligned which prevented the transfer. By the time this was realised the forward springs parted and the ship made contact with a concrete dolphin at 3.1 knots, 70 metres ahead of the berth. The ship suffered structural damage to the bow area.
Action taken
The ship manager has:
Introduced more comprehensive bullet point arrival and departure checklists.
Updated the Quality Management System manual to include propulsion system functional tests from the bridge prior to arrival and before mooring lines are let go on departure.
Made arrangements to change the communication system between the bridge and the ECR.
Introduced drills for practising control and transfer of propeller pitch between the various control positions.
Fitted a gag to the ECR propeller pitch control lever to prevent the inadvertent application of pitch.
The Deputy Chief Inspector of Marine Accidents has written to Thun Ship Management AB, expressing his concern that the master was alone on the bridge and strongly advising the company to review its bridge manning level requirements during port arrival and departure.
