Trust... we have already talked about Trust and how Trust is a Person and how even when we can not see, He can still be trusted... He is at work and He is working all things together for our good --even when it doesn't feel like it!
Yes. Those are truths that we know, but so often forget.
Today however I don't want to tackle our trust in Him, but His trust in us... and then, how we are called to trust Him in each other! All in five minutes! (ha!)
So, Jesus -who is Truth, who is the Alpha and the Omega, who sees the beginning and the end... Jesus, who knows that we are going to mess up - and sometimes mess up big time...
--He still calls us to step up and step out of the boat...
He still sends us out to carry His message, His gospel good news to the broken and hurting... to the sick and dying - in body and soul.
He knows that we, ourselves, are broken and hurting, sick and dying... and yet He trusts us, and entrusts with us, the message of how He is good!
He could have just done a test drive with the disciples. Sent them out two by two and saw the ways they screwed up and thought... you know what, these guys need me to stick around! We're gonna have to put off that whole crucifixion deal for a few more years. they are just not ready.
They sort of weren't... we sort of aren't...
And yet...
He calls us to go... to take risks, knowing full well that some of them will not pan out --oh but it's for the ones that do... it's for the times that we actually do get to walk on the water...
We are sent!
As Pastors (gah... did I just type that out loud?) - our hearts are to stir up your hearts, to stir up your giftings and passions and desires and send you out... trusting Jesus in you to lead and guide you along the way! We want you to go and do what He has purposed for you to do and we trust Him in you!
We called our new church Dad's House on purpose. We are not building a church as much as we want to be growing a family*! We want people to know our good, good Father and we want them to gather at His house... to be loved and be filled... and then go out and take the Kingdom into their every day lives and release all that God has placed within them!
We don't want to fill our church as much as we want His Kingdom to fill our city! We can't do that unless we remember that Jesus lives in us... He partners with us and sends us out with all of our rough edges, quirky personalities and limited understanding... (Sometimes I think He sends us out because of those things!)
Even when we don't feel ready - He equips us, uplifts us, and He trusts us enough to release us into this Kingdom work, side by side with His Spirit and His Bride.
I don't know about you, but I am oh so thankful for His Bride, for the people who poured in to me as a new Christian... who allowed me to be me, and didn't try to form me into anyone else... who saw things in me that I didn't see in myself, and who called them out and stirred them up and assured me that I was ready when I was more than convinced that I was not!
I am thankful that being part of the family of God means that there are always people ahead of us, who can call us out and call us up... and there are always people 'younger' than us, who need the encouragement and reminders that we and Jesus trust in them!
* One of the best compliments we have gotten since starting Dad's House is one that is repeated over and over and over... people say that when they first come to visit, they walk in the doors, and it feels like home! Yes and Amen!
We ourselves went years looking for a home... so we understand the longing, the wandering, and the knowing when you step in to your Father's House and know that you belong!
We trust in Him, yes!
But He also trusts in us...
...it's just that sometimes we forget!
We'd love to have you join us!

Title: Warm Bodies
Author: Isaac Marion
Genre: Dystopian
Series: N/A
Publication Date: April 26, 2011
Format: Hardcover, 256 Pages
ISBN-10: 1439192316 (Atria)
ISBN-13: 978-1439192313 (Atria)
R is a young man with an existential crisis—he is a zombie. He has no memories, no identity, and no pulse, but he has dreams. His ability to connect with the outside world is limited to a few grunted syllables, but his inner life is deep, full of wonder and longing.
After experiencing a teenage boy's memories while consuming his brain, R makes an unexpected choice that begins a tense, awkward, and strangely sweet relationship with the victim's human girlfriend. Julie is a blast of color in the otherwise dreary and gray landscape that surrounds R. His choice to protect her will transform not only R, but his fellow Dead, and perhaps their whole lifeless world. Scary, funny, and surprisingly poignant, Warm Bodies explores what happens when the cold heart of a zombie is tempted by the warmth of human love.
Quick & Dirty: The charming characters and captivating storyline deliver a dramatic tale of survival. Warm Bodies is thought-provoking and highly original.
Opening Sentence: I am dead, but it's not so bad.
Excerpt: Chapter 1
The Review:
R is a zombie. He's still struggling with his role as a zombie in a world where humanity borders on extinction. He doesn't know his name. He can't even remember what his human life was like or how long he's been a zombie. R assumes that he hasn't been a zombie for a long time because his flesh hasn't started to rot and he hasn't lost any body parts. R spends his time going through the motions of living, but feeling vast and absolute emptiness. Wandering aimlessly, grunting and moaning, shrugging and nodding, shuffling, and sometimes speaking a few words, the life of a zombie isn't all that exciting. He lives in an abandoned airport outside a large city with his fellow zombie brethren. Maybe out of habit or some distant memory, the zombies have created some social structure in their airport camp. The zombies have a creepy church, weird marriage ceremonies, adoption for parentless zombie children, and school to teach zombie children how to hunt and kill among other things — useful skills for any self respecting zombie. One day, feeling empty and dead inside, and craving brains, R decides to form a hunting party. When R bites into the cerebrum of his latest victim, Perry, he is flooded and overwhelmed by Perry's memories. Driven by some uncontrollable need, R decides to save Julie, Perry's girlfriend. He takes her back to his zombie camp, and the beginnings of a friendship begin to form. R and Julie set out on a journey, forging an unbreakable bond. Will they find answers to the zombie plague? Can humanity be saved? Is the struggle to survive for the living and the dead worth it?
I'm pleased to say that Warm Bodies is an amazing story. Warm Bodies easily appeals to hardcore zombie fans as well as those who are skeptical of the genre. My approach to reading this story was quite simple – major suspension of disbelief. Turns out, I was wrong. I found myself believing the setup and quickly becoming invested in the story. The synopsis had me intrigued. Admittedly, I was skeptical myself when I read the press release included with the review request. Can a zombie really have a relationship with a human? How will they be able to communicate? What about — dare I say it, SEX? Mr. Marion did an excellent job answering these questions. While all of my questions weren't answered, it was okay. It worked in the context of this compelling story told from the POV of a zombie. I was left with a profound feeling of sadness and joy as I read the final pages. Warm Bodies is a thought-provoking story that will challenge you to think outside the box.
For me, the story of survival was just a backdrop for the equally compelling storyline — the relationship between R and Julie. It took some time for Julie to warm up to R and the idea that he really wanted to protect her, even if it meant getting himself killed again. This time his death would be more fatal. R and Julie have a beautiful and convincing relationship. Both characters are a combination of strength and vulnerability, and are easily likable despite some of their actions.
In all its unpleasantness, Warm Bodies manages to be more than a chronicle of fetid zombies shambling about, looking for the next kill. The concept of Warm Bodies is highly original and the opening chapters of the book are the most riveting that I've read in awhile. The writing is simply beautiful and sets the tone for the rest of the story. I'm very impressed with how this story is written. This is a testament to Mr. Marion's ability to make you care for R and his zombie crew. I found myself struggling with picking a winner and loser. You would think the easy choice would be to choose the living, but the dead simply can't be forgotten. R is a unique narrator and he was able to bring a humanizing element to the plight of the zombies.
Overall, Warm Bodies is an excellent entry into the zombie genre. This dystopian world is bleak, harsh and frightening. This story beautifully captures the struggles for identity, belonging and surviving for both the living and the dead. Warm Bodies will keep readers on the edge of their seats asking and answering difficult questions. Imaginative characters and quirky dialog make this a captivating read. Mr. Marion pens a fast-paced and well written novel that readers will devour.
Notable Scene:
As we approach their level of the building, some of us start groaning loudly, and the Living hear us. One of them shouts the alarm and I hear guns cocking, but we don't hesitate. We burst through a final door and rush them. M grunts when he sees how many there are, but he lunges with me at the nearest man and grabs his arms while I rip out his throat. The burning red taste of blood floods my mouth. The sparkle of life sprays out of his cells like citrus mist from an orange peel, and I suck it in.
The darkness of the room is pulsing with gunfire, and by our standards we are grossly outnumbered — there are only three of us to every one of them — but something is tipping things in our favor. Our manic speed is uncharacteristic of the Dead, and our prey are not prepared for it. Is this all coming from me? Creatures without desire don't usually move quickly, but they're following my lead, and I am an angry whirlwind. What has come over me? Am I just having a bad day?
There is one other factor working to our advantage. These Living are not seasoned veterans. They are young. Teenagers, mostly. Boys and girls. One of them has such gruesome acne he's likely to get shot by mistake in this flickering light. Their leader is a slightly older kid with a patchy beard, standing on a cubicle desk in the middle of the room and shouting panicked commands to his men. As they fall to the floor under the weight of our hunger, as dots of blood pointilize the walls, this boy leans protectively over a small figure crouched below him on the desk. A girl, young and blond, bracing her bird-boned shoulder against her shotgun as she fires blindly into the dark.
I lope across the room and grab the boy's boots. I pull his feet out from under him and he falls, cracking his head on the edge of the desk. Without hesitation I pounce on him and bite through his neck. Then I dig my fingers into the crack in his skull, and pry his head open like an eggshell. His brain pulses hot and pink inside. I take a deep, wide, ravenous bite and —

I don't understand it. I loved the first one to death (but dear lord did some battles get repetitive)
Zero was good too
Agarest 2 is my favorite of the three, mainly because I like it's battle system better than the previous two
I enjoyed the story quite a bit, the games had pretty amazing art, and good music
Anyone else like them?

I did. I enjoyed the tag team battle mechanics as well as the monster farming (made it seem like a stripped down SMT/Pokemon game) as well as how picking your romantic interest affects your character's look and starting stat development at the next generation.
Granted, it's not for everybody and if you don't care for the battle system off the bat, you might as well trash it.

It's a gameplay based RPG that has palette swaps within the first 5 hours of you playing it. It's a SRPG that discourages movement because AP gives you a better chance of acting first. Range rarely ever matters because if you sync up with your partners you have as much range as your longest range attack, so the lines between physical and magic are lost thanks to such a system. Defense stops mattering after the earlier parts of the game. After Gen 2 it's pretty much an offense fest to see who will hit first.
The menus are sloppy for such a menu based system. Changing party members requires you to drop a person from the roster to replace them with someone else. I haven't seen this since early PC games, it was annoying then, and it's just jarring now. Character abilities are based off of a combination of weapon and the unit itself (an interesting concept to say the least), but the problem is that sometimes a weapon has a good set of skills that could be equipped for it, but simply doesn't have the raw stats to make up for it, and skills almost never make up for brute force in this game.
The characters are cardboard cutouts and barely receive any development at all and the ones that stick around never actually evolve over time-- which would be okay if they were interesting in the first place, but they aren't. Characters often join simply for the sake of a new party member. This wouldn't be so bad if the narrative itself were good, but it's not. You're stopping evil from coming back-- cool, but it's strung together through a bunch of nonsensical events. No matter how awesome it is to literally beat the tar out of evil spanning over 5 continents, it's not that awesome when you consider that evil doesn't really have much of a face, and is just really some "force" that's in the shadows not really having clear goals.
Level progression is ridiculous. Some enemies are laughably easy and then walking into another section will have enemies curbstomp you with relative ease. This wouldn't be so bad if there was a way to find some sort of progression, but even gear must be primarily found or refined by the player or purchased from the Adventure Guild (which is far too costly to make it worth your while in the main scheme of things). Monster capturing is a very unrewarding system considering how hard it is to catch the little jerks. Even worse is the fusion portion of the monster system is never cleared up for the player, and the items received from monsters are generally not worth the effort.
Character customization doesn't really matter much sense the characters all have ranks for the stats. What's the point of leveling up Borgnine's Int when it cost like 5 points to raise it ONE point and only 2 to raise Ellis's? Granted Ellis is a lot better of a unit than Borgnine, but the point still stands. The character customization is so limited, that you'll wonder why such a system was even implemented in the first place. It really doesn't serve much of a purpose either. It's just forcing you to allocate your character's points for no real reason. Oh, and some characters are just terrible in this game. Like tree dude, he's pretty okay when you first get him, but man, he's not keeping up with the rest of your good units like Winfield. It's just not happening. Oh, and some characters are completely free while some require you to pay a ton of money to keep using them. That's real fair. NOT.
That said, playing as a man's entire legacy he left behind (and having the chain be customizable based on the woman of your choice) is really badass. But there's no way in hell the awesomeness of such a feature can make up for the rest of the garbage you have to put up with.

A Vision for Minnesota
Tom Emmer released the final part of his budget plan yesterday. As I figured, it was pretty brutal: a one-third cut(!) to LGA, cuts to K-12 education (giving them less than they get this year is not quite "holding education harmless"), cuts to higher ed, cuts to health care (reading between the lines of his priorities, I'm guessing a significant reduction in MinnesotaCare for working adults), and not paying back the K-12 funding shift until later (there's that "harmless" again). It's quite the vision for Minnesota. I had an inkling of what he was planning on doing before I read this, and it was confirmed in his talk today: Emmer wants to continue down the Pawlenty path of dismantling the Minnesota Miracle.

Well if I were 20th Century Fox I would just shut this terrible idea down right now; the idea of Rambo and son was awful from the start but now to have a Rambo TV show without Stallone's involvement is somewhere no fan wants to go.
Deadline is reporting that "the proposed Rambo: New Blood TV series for Fox will not include the actor who originated the role and has played it in every movie in the franchise. Despite being listed as an executive producer in the credits for the projects by the entities involved, Stallone and his reps told Deadline that will not be the case. "Contrary to reports, Sylvester Stallone has opted not to participate in the planned Rambo television series in any way at all," a spokesperson for Stallone said. Added Stallone, "I wish the others well with the project."
To quote Krusty the Clown: "CANCEL IT!"

JUNO Ratings and Reviews
There was a party of 4, and we were there for a pregame Sea Hawks late lunch. We had drinks appetizers and entrees. All were perfect. The booth we sat in was wonderful and very comfortable for 4 adults. The service was excellent, and they were very accommodating to all dietary needs. I am looking forward to eating here again. My steak tips were superb, and the fresh herbs and wine gravy, they were served in was for a foodie, divine. I could taste the fresh Thyme, and the richness of the wine and mushrooms. Just the best. Both gentlemen had the burgers and the beef was exceptional. So glad to discover you when dining in Seattle, will come again for sure!!!!
Don't go when they are full!
These guys have a good menu and a great location. Unfortunately they seem to have a kitchen that's not equipped to keep up with the orders when they are full. Multiple times now I have gone for brunch before a Seahawks game (they are just blocks from the stadium and right at the Pioneer Square link stop). In both cases it was a 40 minute wait from ordering to food arriving. Hopefully they can build kitchen capacity that meets their demand. If the did that I would be giving a much warmer review.
I was meeting a business contact for the first time to have lunch. On arrival and check in, I was informed Juno did not have a reservation for me. I showed the Open Table confirmation message I'd received and got an apathetic "sorry" in response. I decided to wait for my companion's arrival in the reception area. The restaurant was not full and I didn't see anyone who might resemble who I might be meeting. I had my contact's email, but not her cell number so unable to call or text. Just thought she was running late until I realized through some email exchanges that she'd already been seated. She'd arrived earlier and checked in for my reservation (which the hostess said they didn't have, and didn't bother to further investigate). My companion came to the front to get me and our lunch meeting started 30 minutes late. The server gave another unconvincing apology and lunch got underway. Food and service were ok for the rest of the meal. I'd have expected an offer to comp one of our meals or a free dessert--anything to offset the poor experience at the beginning of the meal.
Overall attribute this "poor" rating to their inability to use the Open Table system effectively, and lack of care and follow through in helping my companion and I connect. At other restaurants using Open Table, there never seems to be a problem seating people who arrive separately for the same reservation...why can't Juno figure this out?
IMO, Juno does a better job at happy hour than lunch. The first time I had lunch there was with a large group. The waiter spilled sweet chili sauce all over my pants and brought me a grubby bar rag to wipe up with. This time (party of 3) was thankfully not as eventful, but we were seated without menus and without enough place settings. The waiter noticed, but did nothing about it until I asked for a place setting when the food arrived (which seemed to take a long time both times). Juno is one of the nicer places close to my office, but there's nothing exceptional to say about the food or service.
We had a party of 7 for a birthday lunch for a coworker. Terrible service. Gave up on ordering dessert even tho they knew it was a birthday. Dirty floor. Food inconsistent at our table. Steak salad is awful. Server seemed disinterested and distracted. We have had good breakfast meetings there however.
For a slow Friday lunch, the service was not great. I selected the "Nicoise" which was in the salad section of the menu, however it was not a salad, not a piece of lettuce on the plate. The tuna should have been seared Ahi, thinly sliced. Instead it looked like a steak - brown on the outside and cut into large, thick slices. It was overcooked and not very tasteful. There were about 100 Kalamata olives on the plate, the green beans were Tempura (weird...) and there was a pool of a heavy, orang-ish tasting dressing in the middle of the plate. The meals of my two dining companions looked better and they said tasted "OK". I do not plan to return to Juno anytime soon.
Overall, the food was good, and once we had ordered, it came out within 5-8 minutes. However, I had a reservation at 930, and we were not even acknowledged waiting at the door until 940. It didn't look like they were short staffed because the lady who sat us were talking to her coworkers the entire time. After sitting for 15 more minutes with no water or menus and right as we were about to leave, our server came over. He was a nice man, but with the 25 min wait until we could even order from our reservation time, we won't be back.
Our group of three has been to Juno several times, and the last two times we were very disappointed in the service. The first time, there apparently was a mix-up with our order being given to the chef, so we waited an hour for our meals. We know these things can happen and gave the waitperson the benefit of the doubt. The second time, a different waitperson took our order, and the food came in a timely manner, which was great. However, she did not come back at any time during the meal to check with us, refill drinks or ask if we wanted dessert. The only enthusiasm she had regarding our service was in bringing our bill at the end of the meal and checking back for our payment a couple of times. We really like Juno for the atmosphere and food. Given the moderately high prices and location in the hotel, we would expect better service in this restaurant, especially if it wants to stay competitive. May we suggest more training with the waitstaff or more attentive management to the service being provided.
I had the lemongrass fried chicken, and it was the best fried chicken I have ever tasted. Our server was attentive but not overbearing, and it was quiet enough that we were able to have a lively conversation with our friends without shouting to be heard. We will definitely go back.
We went to Juno before a concert at Century Link Stadium. We were seated quickly and the service was excellent. Drinks and food were both very good. My Ribeye steak was excellent, although the potatoes that accompanied the steak were overcooked. Others in our party were pleased with their meals. Overall, I would recommend Juno for anyone looking for a restaurant down in that area of downtown Seattle or close to Pioneer Square.
I was quite dismayed. I chose due to "proximity" to 5th Avenue...not close...favorable reservation time and menu.
Venue was shabby, food was not great. Server was doing double duty as room service delivery to Double Tree.
Unfortunately, I will not be back or recommend to others.
I do not write negative reviews as a rule, but this experience really started my evening on a sour note.
Juno's is a great spot for a business lunch!
Food is excellent. Menu offers seasonal options as well as dependable favorites. In an historic refurbished building, so nice ambience. The fireplace adds a nice homey touch and provides a sound barrier. Service is efficient and friendly.
Across the street from the Pioneer Square light rail station.
Had lunch at Juno with a coworker. I really like the location. There are a good variety of foods on the menu at a really good value. I recommend this place to come if you only have an hour to spare but you don't want the everyday lunch scene such as a food court. The service was fast and friendly, the ambience is quiet.

I intend to create safe, open spaces to talk about women's health issues and foster healing, supportive environments. So that women feel they have somewhere to turn for guidance and encouragement as they navigate the healthcare system and life's challenges.
As a woman who has personally experienced the healing power of food and lifestyle design to recover from a diagnosis of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and years of hormonal imbalance, I am very passionate about female empowerment in our healthcare system. I am passionate about helping women struggling with hormonal imbalances to take charge of their own health through a holistic approach. In my opinion, women have been silenced and conditioned to feel shame about their bodies, their femininity, and their hormonal/reproductive health for far too long. It's very important to me to begin building a community of positive support by sharing my story and encouraging other women to be open about their health and hormonal struggles.
It can be so confusing and frustrating to understand hormonal imbalance and reproductive conditions. Many general practitioners just don't have the time or specialized knowledge to give women with hormonal imbalances and conditions such as PCOS the individualized support that they need. Typically, the Western medical treatment is a one-size-fits-all approach focusing on prescription drugs, hormone replacement therapy, and in some cases invasive surgical procedures. It's a system that focuses on symptom management, rather than addressing the underlying causes of symptoms and working to heal those imbalances holistically.
I am not just approaching this topic from a well-researched yet detached perspective, but rather from an intimately personal experience. I know how it feels to leave a doctor in tears, feeling patronized, not getting my questions answered, and not receiving treatment recommendations that respect my personal health wishes (such as my desire to never go back on the birth control pill). I've been in that position multiple times with multiple doctors, and I know how painful and utterly frustrating it is to feel as though you're not being heard and that you have no options.
I believe that addressing hormonal imbalances from a dietary and lifestyle approach can be an optimal way to heal, and that it should be the starting point before considering medical interventions. I have personally experienced the incredible healing benefits of a holistic approach through my own journey with PCOS and hormonal imbalance. This is not to say that I don't appreciate that there is a time and a place for the medical system and conventional treatment approaches. Each woman will have a completely unique healing journey that may include a combination of multiple approaches and/or practitioners. But I suggest that we start first with the areas of our lives that are in our control, adjusting our lifestyles to support our body's natural desire to be in a state of optimal health. I suggest that we support every woman in accessing healthcare services that respect her body and her rights to make informed decisions about her health.

How To Use Google Translate From Commandline In Linux
I have stumbled upon this cool utility today, and I couldn't resist myself to share this to our users. Meet, Translate Shell (formerly known as Google Translate CLI) is a command-line translator powered by popular translation engines such as Google Translate (default), Bing Translator, Yandex.Translate and Apertium etc. It allows you to access one of these translation engines from your terminal. Google Translate is my first preferred source to translate English to Tamil and vice versa. Since I am not a native English speaker, I depend on Google Translate a lot for both my professional and personal work. Translate Shell utility is very useful handy when it comes to translate words from English to your native language and vice versa from Terminal. Translate Shell will work on most modern operating systems, including GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, MS Windows, and Mac OS X.
In this tutorial, we will be discussing how to translate a word, a sentence, or a webpage from your preferred language to English and vice versa. Let's get started!
Use Google Translate From Commandline In Linux using "Translate Shell"
Install Translate Shell
Translate Shell is available as self-contained executable file. Just download and make it as executable and start using it.
wget git.io/trans
chmod +x trans
Or, you can clone it from the git repository, compile and install it as shown below.
git clone https://github.com/soimort/translate-shell
cd translate-shell/
sudo make install
How to use Translate Shell
To translate a word, just type:
trans வணக்கம்
Sample output:
வணக்கம் (Vaṇakkam) Hello Translations of வணக்கம் [ தமிழ் -> English ] வணக்கம் Hello, Greetings, Good, Hi, Salute
As you see in the above output, I have translated a Tamil word "வணக்கம்" (Vanakkam), which is used to greet people, to English. Please note that if you have downloaded self-contained executable file, you need to run "./trans வணக்கம்" (without quotes, of course).
To translate a whole sentence at once, Just type 'trans' command followed by the sentence within quotes like below.
trans "எப்படி இருக்கீங்க?"
Sample output:
எப்படி இருக்கீங்க? (Eppaṭi irukkīṅka?) How are you? Translations of எப்படி இருக்கீங்க? [ தமிழ் -> English ] எப்படி இருக்கீங்க? How are you?
As you see in the above example, Translate Shell gives you the detailed translation of the given sentence.
To get the brief translation of the given sentence, type the sentence with -brief parameter as shown below.
trans -brief "எப்படி இருக்கீங்க?"
The sample output would be:
How are you?
This above command will just display the actual translation.
I want to translate a whole text file to English, is it possible? Yes you can.
Let us see the contents of text file
cat /home/sk/greet.txt
Here is what I have in the text file.
வணக்கம். எப்படி இருக்கீங்க?
To translate this text file, just type:
trans file:///home/sk/greet.txt
Sample output:
Hello. How are you?
Cool isn't it?
As you noticed, all the translations that we did till now are from other languages (Tamil in my case) to English. If you want to change the target language, type :(colon) followed by specific language code.
Say for example, to translate a word to Hindi, just type:
trans :hi வணக்கம்
This command will translate the Tamil word "வணக்கம்" to Hindi language.
Sample output:
வணக்கம் (Vaṇakkam) नमस्ते (namaste) Translations of வணக்கம் [ தமிழ் -> हिन्दी ] வணக்கம் नमस्ते, करें Hello, नमस्कार, Hello
If you don't know the language code, type:
trans -R
Just pick any language of your choice and translate the sentence instantly. You don't need a web browser. Everything will displayed in the Terminal.
What about translating a website? That's also possible.
trans https://www.ostechnix.com/
This command will open a new browser window and translate the website into English. Since the above website is already in English, It just displayed:
The page you have attempted to translate is already in English.
To translate ostechnix.com site to some other language, for example Hindi, just type:
trans :hi https://www.ostechnix.com/
That's all for today. We know now all the important functions of Translate Shell. For more details, type:
trans -M
Note: Use capital M.
Hope this help. Have you used Translate Shell already? Great! Let us know about your experience in the comment section below.
Thanks for stopping by!

Transitions Championship Television TImes
Let me take you back to February 15, 2009. Tiger hadn't played on tour in roughly eight months. I predicted his upcoming schedule exactly:
Accenture Match Play is a good candidate for Tiger's return…
Doral on March 12 is a strong candidate for Tiger to play, and the Arnold Palmer Inivitational March 26th is a very high probability in my estimation. Then Tiger would rest before the Masters Tournament on April 9th.
Tiger has now been confirmed for the Arnold Palmer Championship at Bay Hill next week. And I'd bet the farm and billions of dollars in bailout money he'll skip the Houston Open, returning for The Masters…
Tiger Woods is playing in the Australian Masters this November. Unlike the PGA Tour, other tours can pay appearance fees so Tiger is getting his, a paltry $3,000,000. Tiger's appearance fee for one non PGA Tour event is more than many PGA Tour players make in a year.
I get an appearance fee too
I'm playing today with my Thursday group. Last week I had to pay all three pals their appearance fees of about $16.00. I hope to receive an appearance fee, rather than pay to play today.
I've met Fuzzy Zoeller a few times and he was always nice.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of Fuzzy's Masters victory. And, this year will be Fuzzy's last Masters.
Lefties hitting right-handed, righties hitting left-handed…
Did anyone see Phil Mickelson's right-handed shot out of the bushes with his club turned upside down? I rolled that back a few times on my DVR. While I don't agree that the shot choice he made was a wise decision, it was impressive. The result wasn't great and could have been a catastrophe if his shot kicked right instead of down. All that said, Phil's right-handed technique looked picture perfect. It looked better than mine. Of course, all he'd have to do is look better than an 84 year old lady golfing to look better than my swing, but I digress.
That Phil shot reminded me of a similar shot Tiger Woods hit back in the 2004 Masters when he did the same thing from the trees. I'm thinking it was the trees right of #13 but it was a while ago so I may have the hole wrong. As I recall I also rolled that one back a few times on the DVR and marveled at how perfect Tiger's left-handed technique was.
Do these guys practice hitting these shots or are they just that damn good?
Can we put the Sergio #1 talk to bed now?
So now that Phil won at Doral, he overtook Sergio Garcia for the world's #2 ranking, and silenced the ridiculous "Sergio #1 in the world" discussion for now.
Phil becomes #1 and Tiger's caddy Steve Williams makes the switch to Phil…
I'd like to see Phil overtake Tiger, if not for just a few weeks. Then perhaps Steve Williams (Tiger's caddy), would want to switch over to working for Phil. And maybe hell would freeze over too.

Though the first ever intel based Android smartphone may not have been able to fetch much of success to the firm, Lava looks in no mood to face a setback as it seems it has decided to move on with the same partnership. This time round, the focus is on the lower price bracket where the majority of potential buyers resides in India! Although Lava may not be a big name over the subcontinent, but the thing that's inside, has got the potential to take it to the next level.
The Lava XOLO X500 hosts Intel's Atom Z2420 processor known as "Lexington" which was made keeping the lower end of the budget in mind. This handsome chipset has got the CPU clocked at a zippy 1.2Ghz of clockspeed while there is the inclusion of Intel's HyperThreading technology which virtually doubles the number of total number of active processing cores. The RAM ticks at 512Megabytes while the 4Gigabytes of internal storage promises Android 4.0+ support while the rest of the specs remain as sturdy as they could fit in for a price bracket of ₹8,999 (~$170) at launch including the HVGA 3.5" display and the 1500mAh battery which looks juicy enough to feast one of the most battery friendly processors in the mobile industry.
With the price tag showing a bit of aggression, although the interiors are promising enough to bash up all the competition, there are some big time bestsellers and potential bestsellers in this segment like the lives of HTC Explorer, Sony Xperia Tipo and the Samsung Galaxy Y Duos. Also, the biggest of threats might just be some competition from the home turf, that is the almighty Micromax A110 Superfone Canvas 2! If that thing can blow up the most popular lists of a few of the most frequently visited mobile blogs, the Lexington running dude should be beware of the territory it is trying to step in!
What's you opinion? please leave us a word in the comments section.

We are staying in Rimini this summer and planning some daytrips by public transport (no car):
for sure: Urbino, Bologna and San Marino and a day in Rimini.
Both Ferrara and Parma are more than a 2 hour voyage on train, so we have to pick one.
Which would you prefer?
Thanks a lot!

Ferrara or Parma
We are staying in Rimini this summer and planning some daytrips by public transport (no car):
Report Abuse
We stayed in Ferrara and visited Parma as a day trip. Parma is a lovely pedestrian-friendly town--we wish we had stayed there instead of Ferrara.
Report Abuse
I recently spent the night in Parma on my way back from Bologna (I live in Liguria) and the minute I get a chance, I'm going back to Parma! In fact, even in the one night I spent there, I went back into the middle of town to see the duomo again. Why Parma isn't as overrun with tourists as most of Tuscany is a mystery, because the food is better, for one thing, and the place is gorgeous.
I've never been to Ferrara, but I would think that while it is more peaceful than bustling Bologna, it is not all that different culturally.
May I make a suggestion? If you can possibly get to San Leo instead of San Marino, thinking about going there instead (or doing both in a long day?)
You might also do some research on towns further down the train line from Rimini, in particular Cesanatico and Santarcangelo di Romogna and see if daytripping there appeals to you.
Report Abuse
Between Parma and Ferrara, absolutely I suggest Ferrara, because it is a back jump in a particular season of Renaissance and its atmosphere is unique. A warning: very hot in summer and, again and again, without spending there at least the late evening, part of the charm will be missing.
About the suggestion of Zeppole to replace San Marino with San Leo, I absolutely agree, including, as a must, to visit its very interesting Rocca and trying to spend there at least the sunset time.
About Santarcangelo di Romagna, it is a very cute small town. I live here and today it is going to begin the Theatre Festival so that for eleven days, every evening there is a theatre piece in the main square.
If you want to come here in Santarcangelo di Romagna, feel free to e-mail me and I can help you to discover the best of this lovely part of Romagna.
Report Abuse
Sorry for misspelling the name of your town. I do know better!
Is it possible to leave Rimini early in the morning by train, get to Parma, see the duomo and bapistery, have lunch, take a train to Ferrara, experience the town, have apertivi, and take the train back to Rimini eating food you bought in the market?
Too long a day? Too little time in Ferrara?
Report Abuse
I'd actually skip both of them (too far for a day trip for me) and choose Ravenna for its beautiful mosaics--it's only an hour away.

By the way everybody, this is what passes for "cute small town" in Emilia-Romagna:

Parma's OK. Its cathedral's got an unbelievably wonderful baptistery, and the cathedral itself is spectacular from outside, but its best-known work inside - the Correggio cupola - couldn't be seen the other week, and the restoration work obscuring it looks set to be there for a pretty long time.
Other than that: the city's interesting, but hardly in the first division, unless eating (and buying food) is your thing. It's also central and quiet (the centre has almost been taken over by bikes) so it'd make a great base for exploring central Italy, but that's irrelevant to your question.
Like ellenem, I'm puzzled you're not bothering with Ravenna, which most certainly IS first division. Unless you're attracted by mass-tourism beaches, the Tempio Maltestiano or the early life of Fellini, surely visiting Ravenna's the whole point of staying in Rimini?

That's one of the things we liked about human-scale Parma after staying in bustling Bologna and Ferrara. Parma was a treat even on a rainy day in May, 2008. In Parma we had lunch at Enoteca Fontana--an very special experience.
The mosaics in Ravenna trump either Ferrara or Parma.
Report Abuse
No, Zeppole, IMO it is almost impossible to visit in one day both Parma and Ferrara.
Anyway, smart idea is Ravenna.
Do not miss Santarcangelo di Romagna; did you see the photos ?!
Report Abuse
I agree with Ellen and otgher and think that Ravenna should not be missed. The mosaics there are unique.
I did not visit Parma, but we loved Ferrara.

Thanks vicenzod! Hope the sun is shining where you are.

my husband and i are in love with parma-- the incredible baptistery , pinotecca, and the amazing Convent of San Paolo. also, it's worth the trip just to have the torteli at alcorsaro... a fairly inexpensive restaurant right by the sights with the most delicious homemade torteli erbetta . we are fans. however, i hear that parma is miserably hot in late summer... not sure when you're going.

In the surrounding area of Parma, three very unusual Museums:
at Soragna, Museo del Parmigiano-Reggiano;
at Langhirano, Museo del Prosciutto di Parma;
at Felino, Museo del Salame di Felino.
They deserve a visit, believe me !

We were so glad we went to Ravenna on our trip a couple of weeks ago. Not only wonderful mosaics, but a very walkable and pleasant and untouristed main town area, along with excellent cuisine.

Is there a way to get to Santarcangelo di Romagna by public transport from Rimini?

from Santarcangelo to Rimini bus or train, both no longer than 15 minutes.
Santarcangelo deserves a trip, I am sure, altough there is the risk to meet me !!!

Hi Vicenzo: Do you by any chance have a link to the schedule of the Teatro Regio in Parma..I am interested in the opera schedule and cannot find anything after this month.
Report Abuse
The best choice, IMO, is to visit this website:
www.turismo.parma.it with its English version.
Report Abuse
Thanks, but I do not see the opera schedule on this site!!
And on the Teatro Regio site, I do not see a 2009 schedule....am I missing something??
Report Abuse
I called to understand better and they told me that not before than November they will show the 2009 program.
I will update you, anyway.

Mille grazie, Vicenzo!

Catholic Charities
Baltimore, Maryland
This seventeen story, 201-unit building was originally constructed in 1980 by Harkins Builders. Catholic Charities once again hired HBI to renovate the building over 30 years later, and even used some of the original crew members for the job. Renovations included partial roof replacement, building systems upgrades, resident-in-place unit renovations, and carefully designed amenity spaces on the ground floor to meet the modern needs of the community. This included a new wellness suite, enlarged laundry room, and warming pantry. Accessibility and energy efficiency upgrades were also a part of this project.

I am not going to pretend I know every single ounce of "Krush" history or doings. However, I do know they are members of the Illinois Fighting Illini fanbase which root for their team, regardless if home or away. Then there is the case of the Northwestern Wildcats, a not so swell of a hoops program, who apparently can't tell when someone is wearing a bright orange shirt under a bright purple shirt.
Besides the fact that the three members of Krush probably felt like a walking fruit-loop, they had a really good time as their Illini smacked around the Wildcats. But not only did they enjoy their program destroying Northwestern, the Krush members also invaded some kind of tricycle race that is held on the court.
No, I haven't the slightest clue why tricycle races happen for Northwestern home games, but here is the three Krush members tricking a group of smart people:
It should be worth noting that it took four shots to make three baskets. Come on members of Krush, those were uncontested lay-ups and you couldn't nail all three without having to take an extra shot? Although, kudos are in order for fooling whoever was in charge of a tricycle race at Northwestern. I can only assume the person in charge was not a student or a faculty member, as Northwestern is known as an academic powerhouse.
But if it was, well, this is a prime example on why the Northwestern basketball program can't have nice things.

We were supposed to arrive in Berlin around lunchtime. Nana and me have been on the autobahn for days. At least that's how it felt. Everyday driving all over Germany while listening to Peter's "The Sound of Glen Waverley" compilation. We arrived quite late, around 4 pm. I was afraid that Uwe was going to be pissed. We woke up late, that's true; and we left Hamburg even later. Berlin was empty, it was a holiday, May 1st, May Day. We didn't see any revolts or demonstrations though, maybe because we were pretty lost in the city. It took as around 30 minutes to find Uwe's place, and 15 to find a parking space. Not an easy task.
At last at Uwe's apartment! Wow, what a record collection!! Records everywhere, on racks, on shelves, I bet even in the fridge! To my surprise, also waiting for us was Jan. We were meeting two thirds of Firestation Records!
Glasses of lemonade kept coming. Indiepop gossip, the latest news, future releases and plans. The state of indiepop labels, the dishonesty of legendary labels, the enthusiasm of up and coming Japanese labels, the price to press vinyl in Japan. And etcetera. It was a conversation that could have lasted for hours, maybe a sleepless day. Uwe, especially, had that same passion and drive for jangly guitars that I have. Passionate, now I can see how the Leamington Spa compilations take shape. I can see him dedicating hours and hours of searching and looking for the old bands, especially during those early volumes, where there was no myspace and old bands were almost impossible to track down. I know for a fact that he would send letters to the addresses that appeared on the back of the sleeves of the records. I wonder how many answered back.
A little trade with them, Explained Emma's "When My Heart Rings" 7″ and The Groovy Cellar's "When You Fly Away". The first one appeared on the last Leamington Spa compilation, but this 7″ appeared early this year as a co-release between the German label and the Japanese Fastcut Records. This are songs from the early 80s released today! I believe this record is now sold out, sadly. But you can still get the second Explained Emma 7″, out too on Fastcut Records and Firestation: "Unnecessary Stain". I recommend them both! I would most probably try to get in touch with the band, would be great to have an interview sometime! On the other hand, The Groovy Cellar is one of my favorite German bands. "Mac Arthur Lane", on Marsh Marigold, is such an underrated album, it's great. Also if you are curious check Olaf's previous band, the legendary Most Wanted Men. This 7″ is part of the Singles Club that Firestation started not so long ago, this is number 4.
The future is even brighter! The Sound of Leamington Spa Vol. 7 will be out early next year. All I know is that there are going to be 21 tracks, and one of them is from Home and Abroad. I guess I'm not nosy enough? Also around the same time there will be a retrospective album from The Ferrymen. The 15 track album from this Doncaster band should be a winner. Their sound reminds me The Housemartins and The Beautiful Sound, and though I'm not a fan of either, I'm enjoying these tracks! Coincidence or not, the final show this band ever did was in Berlin. Huh!
The other great news, and the one I'm looking forward with excitement!, is that this December will see the release of a retrospective album of an overlooked C86 band: The Man of Westnesse. Hooray! The only two songs I know (Boating and The Coldest Water) are pure jangle bliss, favourites among favourites. The album is called "Are You Brothers" and it contains 15 (!) tracks. This is a MUST have. If you are skint, ask Santa for it. You NEED it.
And then it was time to leave, time to go meet Kat and Day, and a night tour around Berlin's historic sites.

We were camping on Martha's Vineyard before the season started with very little to do. One day we decided to have a beer in town. Some local guys were hanging out in the bar and she started flirting the moment we sat down. This was typical behavior for her and I hated it. After she suggested we invite them over, I figured enough was enough. I told her I was walking and she told me she was staying. So I left and sat outside. She came out shortly, totally freaked out that I left her in a dangerous situation.
Aftermath: She stormed off toward the ferry to leave me on the island with our camping equipment. On the way, she realized she had a tick behind her ear and needed me to remove it. This moment of vulnerability and the resulting gratitude sucked me into another couple of months.
