- World of Cool
The press release accompanying my copy of The Cool School begins by assuring me that "From music, to television, to fashion, hipsters are everywhere today." Actually, with the mordant wit he often displayed, the former New York Times book reviewer Anatole Broyard once argued that the hipster's state of mind was inevitably nowhere. He might have added that the television screen is the last place one should expect to find anything hip.
Glenn O'Brien's useful anthology, he playfully calls it his "compendium of orphans," provides enough examples to illustrate the paradoxical metaphysics of nowhere. In a pithy but insightful introduction, he establishes his terroir, and defines the geography of the place he is exploring:
To be hip is to belong to an underground, a subculture or counterculture, an elective tribe located within a larger community, out siders inside. It is detached from the main thing and proud of its detachment.
A street person, a spiritual outlaw, an outcast, heretic, or pariah figure, the hipster is "identified by language reflecting an alternate set of values." Like a Gnostic among the early Christians, that language is often coded, multilayered, swiftly mutating, and often deliberately ambiguous. The hipsters kept talking, as Jack Kerouac once maintained in Playboy Magazine (of all places!) in 1959, about "personal experience and vision, nightlong confessions full of hope that had become illicit and repressed by War, stirrings, rumblings of a new soul [until] Huncke appeared to us and said 'I'm beat' with radiant light shining out of his despairing eyes…." Kerouac got the term that would replace the "lost" of the Hemingway era from a furtive Times Square hustler and petty thief named Herbert Huncke who had initiated him, with morphine in the mainline, along with William Burroughs and Allan Ginsberg in a communal apartment across the street from Columbia University in the winter of 1944.
The hipsters, with their protective veil of detachment, saw themselves immediately after World War Two as "cool," a relative, provisional quality that, like grace, could not be faked, but through what O'Brien calls the "swirling total immersion" culture of the late 1960's became an attitude that spread internationally. O'Brien might have done well to have included a section from Amiri Baraka's Blues People (1963) where he defines cool as the ability" to be calm, even unimpressed by whatever horror the world might daily propose." Baraka's context is a century of segregation and cool was the mask of equanimity assumed by a saxophonist like Lester Young, wearing shades on stage instead of a Sammy Davis grin.
In its heyday hip became a reactive model for the embalming conformities and insecurities that the early Beats felt in the 1950's. Historians tend to emphasize the ways in which Cold War hysteria was manufactured, the "Take-Cover!" nuclear drills, the pervasive terrors of the Red Scare, the creepy insinuations of McCarthyism and the poisonous untruths sounded in the ears of H.U.A.C., all leading to the purges in government, in Hollywood, in the universities, and even in the civil service. The 1950's were also a decade in which the Warren Court ended American apartheid with the Brown vs. Board of Education decision in 1954, and then a few years later sanctioned Tropic of Cancer (1934). In New York City, a D.J. named Allen Freed with a rhythm and blues format, started playing Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, and finally Elvis. Lawrence Ferlinghetti created a new vitality for the alternative press scene with City Lights and its publication of Howl in 1956. A year earlier, Mailer had published his seminal essay, "The White Negro," in a new magazine called Dissent, a name that signified the antinomian discontents that would help to redefine national priorities.
Of course, there was very little that could be considered "cool" about any of this, and Kerouac in his Playboy piece coyly suggested that most of his Beat writer pals "belonged to the hot school, naturally since...

Dwayne Johnson swiftly backtracks on claim that he's 'Boris Johnson's cousin'
Dwayne Johnson ploughed a hasty retreat after he joked that Boris Johnson was his cousin during an appearance on Good Morning Britain.
In a jovial chat with veteran celeb reporter Ross King, The Rock commented on the recent appointment of Johnson as prime minister.
"He's family, by the way," Johnson said. "You don't know that, and now all the Brits know. He is. He's my cousin.
"Again, it's like looking in the mirror, every time I see Boris."
Yep, it's uncanny.
But it wasn't long before The Rock was going back on this, having seemingly been schooled by fans on the divisive new British leader.
Well according to the people, maybe we're not related after all 😂🤦🏽♂— Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) July 29, 2019
Big mahalo to my people who I can always rely on to give me the real talk and swift perspective & education on the individual I did not know 😉Tequila on me, Britain 🙌🏾🥃 https://t.co/xbyjVRBhrB
Taking to Twitter, Johnson said: "Well according to the people, maybe we're not related after all.

"Big mahalo to my people who I can always rely on to give me the real talk and swift perspective & education on the individual I did not know.
"Tequila on me, Britain."
Wait, did we hear that correctly?— Good Morning Britain (@GMB) July 29, 2019
Hollywood superstar Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) makes a surprising revelation about our Prime Minister Boris Johnson… pic.twitter.com/pVlHpy2Vus
We may need it.
Offering a prompt response to the "swift perspective" offered by his British Twitter followers is just another example of The Rock's killer social media strategy.
According to Hollywood sources, Johnson reportedly charges $1m a tweet to promote his own movies.
Johnson is doing the press rounds ahead of Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw, the F&F franchise spin-off starring him and Jason Statham as Agent Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw, criminal mastermind turned ally as they trail genetically enhanced villain Brixton Lore, a rogue MI6 agent played by Idris Elba.
It lands in the UK on 1 August. Check out the trailer below.

Murray Mellon Buck
312 0/8
Premier Collection
Skull Option: Yes
Murray Mellon Buck
Score: 312 0/8"
Type: Non-Typical
Location: Canada, Alberta
Collection: Premier
Item #: 0116
Price: $3,000
Is it an antler or a bush? It would be easy to be confused if seen out in the "bush" of Alberta! But, unfortunately, it was found dead instead. This monster buck is reminiscent to a cactus type of antler, with bone going everywhere! Points galore and towering brow tines set this deer apart. After repairs, this behemoth is the largest non-typical from Canada. Found in the same general area and with those similar brows, it is suspected that this deer maybe genetically linked to the Neil Morin Buck (item #3000)

Innovision 2018 – preparing for the changing face of motoring
With Innovision 2018, an event specially created for the domestic and international aftermarket, lighting and electronics expert Hella and the diagnostics specialist Hella Gutmann Solutions (HGS) helped to prepare their trading partners for the changing face of motoring.
Taking place on January 15, company experts addressed the 800 partners from 24 countries regarding the technologies of tomorrow, through presentations and an exhibition, on the digitalisation of lighting, automated driving and diagnostic solutions.
Alexander Bäppler, responsible for Hella's aftermarket sales in central and northern Europe and Jürgen Hofmann, head of sales for the German market at HGS, directed attention to the importance of the interaction between original equipment expertise and targeted diagnostics for the independent aftermarket, a clear example being the 15 million Hella radar sensors installed in vehicles worldwide and the associated diagnostic and calibration systems from HGS.
Automated driving, digitalisation & connectivity, efficiency & electronic mobility, as well as individualisation, are the current trends in the automotive industry. "These developments pose challenges to workshops and aftermarket partners since vehicles are becoming increasingly complex. This also makes a forward-thinking workshop increasingly important," said Dr. Andreas Habeck, head of independent aftermarket and workshop products at Hella. "As a trading partner and 'the workshop's friend', we accompany our customers along the way and are continuously expanding our services in this direction."
One answer to the current challenges was provided by HGS when premiering the new mega macs 77 diagnostic unit, the successor model to the market leading mega macs 66. Surpassing the mega macs 66's known strengths, such as the real-time repair concept, the mega macs 77 boasts modern hardware and new features like automated sequences during electric measurements.

Abend Gallery presents
Edge of Realism
featuring the works of
Jaclyn Alderete, Daliah Ammar, Erin Anderson, Jennifer Balkan,
David Cheifetz, Jacob Dhein, Michael Dowling, Michael Gadlin + Ron Hicks,
Benjamin Garcia, Justin Hopkins, Kelly Houghton, Meghan Howland, Megan Jaster,
Jason Avery, Dougan Khim, Zin Lim, Jane Radstrom, Matthew Saba, Britt Snyder,
Dorian Vallejo, Emilio Villalba, John Wentz, and Wendelin Wohlgemuth
Aug 7 – Aug 28, 2015
Opening Reception: Fri, Aug 7, 6-9 pm
"While realism in art is often used in the same contexts as naturalism, implying a concern to depict or describe accurately and objectively, it also suggests a deliberate rejection of conventionally beautiful or appropriate subjects in favor of sincerity and a focus on simple and unidealized treatment of contemporary life." – OED
DENVER, CO. - Abend Gallery is proud to present the second annual Edge of Realism, a showcase of 21 artists whose work operates at the edges of realistic depiction. This exhibition brings together a diverse range of work from local and national artists whose work operates at the margins of realist painting, whether it be through the deconstructed, abstracted realism of Jacob Dhein, Justin Hopkins, and John Wentz, or via the tightly rendered yet surreal works of David Cheifetz, Dorian Vallejo, and Britt Snyder. The exhibition is a collection of works that signal new directions and perspectives in contemporary representational painting.
To be on the edge of something can suggest a multitude of things. Perhaps not quite reaching a goal or ideal or, inversely, on the brink of something new and groundbreaking. In terms of art, to be on the edge of realism suggests a position that lies somewhere in the grey area in between. In order for art to fall under this category as it is defined it has to show its subjects or subject matter with complete honesty, accuracy, and leave out any sense of the social constructs of aesthetics and beauty as we know them, which is in itself problematic. It is crucial to note the varying degree of impossibility of depicting something with complete realism and highlight the fact that it is for this reason that art falls within that grey area. As humans we are imperfect, bound to be influenced by our surroundings and various personal backgrounds that shape the people we become. There will always be bias, a part of the self that gets projected onto those we come into contact with and it is through recognizing these notions that art made within the realm of realism can be established.
The 21 artists that comprise this exhibition have all created works that fall into the category of realism, however abstractly. Depicting their subjects in a variety of ways: shrouded in other imagery (Meghan Howland), distorting their faces or bodies (Wendelin Wohlgemuth), manipulating light (Britt Snyder), it goes on… What is important to note here are the distinct features in each piece that call the viewer's attention. The complex nature of the works that make up this show toe the line between realism and something more, creating hybrids of the subjects and objects we are already familiarized with.
This exhibition presents a fresh take on already familiar subject matter but with something more. Each piece emphasizes the individual artists', the qualities that make their perceptions unique and distinct from one another, and highlights the rational of the curators when putting together a show such as this. To be on The Edge of Realism suggests something beyond the realm of the ordinary and pushes for the bizarre, insightful, and extraordinary.
An opening reception will be held on Friday, Aug 7 from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m.

Stephen T
100% recommendation for Neil and his team. First go in the arena today and it rode beautifully. Such a hard working team and they totally care about doing a great job.
Joanne Bond
After having made a big mistake of hiring two groundworkers to build my dream horse arena, it soon turned turned into a nightmare as they botched the job endangering my horses. Neil was recommended to us and after inspecting the site, the job had to be started again. Neil worked within our tight budget and his team went the extra mile, sometimes with the lights on at night. Ridesafe Arenas gave us an arena we now love and whatever the weather we can ride on it. I just wish we hired them from the start.

When you own a home, it is yours, so you can so whatever you want to make your home better. This article will give you advice on making those improvements.
Adding or replacing the weather stripping around windows and doors is a great way to improve the energy efficiency of your home. It's easy to add weather stripping. You just purchase it at your local hardware store and follow the package directions. Once you are finished, you will notice the improvement in the efficiency of your heat and A/C. The difference will also be pleasantly noticeable.
When doing home improvements, consider your surroundings and just improve items that make sense. Avoid nonsensical or questionable improvements like leaving a sun room in a cold climate uninsulated. This will make your home much more difficult to sell. Be sure you stick with the improvements that are actually wanted and don't overdo it. Keep the actual climate in mind.
For a simple, low-cost way to improve your bathroom's appearance, install new, coordinating metal fixtures. You can find a wide variety of shapes, colors and finishes in accessory fixtures like towel racks, cabinet pulls and shower rods. Look for coordinating sets of these fixtures that are easy to install in one day at home improvement stores.
Do want new kitchen appliances? Stainless steel is very popular, but do not get rid of your refrigerator because you do not like it. Instead of buying new appliances, buy spray paint. You can update your kitchen and give your appliances a uniform look.
Use wallpaper to create a great looking bookcase. Choose a design that is unusual and interesting. Place the wallpaper behind your bookcase, then you will see the design as you stack books. This will give your bookcase a good design and it will also act as a focal point in your room.
Before you install new hardwood floors, consult with a professional regarding the floors that are currently in your home. You may find gorgeous, natural hardwood buried beneath layers of old linoleum or carpet that can be refinished and restored to its original beauty. You could find beautiful wood floors just waiting to be found and refinished.
If one of the to-dos on your list of home improvements is remodeling your bathroom, consider planning and building one that is handicap accessible. It's not necessary to fit all of the specialized equipment right away, but you can make preparations that will be very useful if you stick with the same house as you grow older. If you sell your home, these preparations will add to the value of your house on the market.
If your gutters are clogged, it can become a drainage problem if you experience a rainy summer. If you have a leak in your basement the first thing you should do is check your gutters, they could be clogged. Prevent this by keeping the gutters clear of leaves and debris.
After years in the same house, it's perfectly natural to crave newness and change. When making repairs to your home, use the tips from this article as a starting point.

Liverpool's Gerrard arrested
English Premier League footballer and Liverpool captain; Steven Gerrard was arrested early Tuesday morning. Gerrard was out drinking and celebrating the 5-1 stomping of Newcastle on Sunday when a fight occurred outside a bar. The fight left a DJ hospitalized with a broken tooth and other facial injuries. Gerrard and two others were charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm and affray. The charges carry a maximum five-year sentence.
Gerrard is probably the most important player on the pitch for Liverpool, not to mention the face of their franchise for the better half of the past decade. With these charges, he may have hindered the hopes of supporters since Liverpool took over the top spot in the Premier league this past weekend. Maybe the DJ was playing an Arsenal fight song or just ran his mouth, which deserved a whacking. Nevertheless, if the captain tells you he wants to hear the new Britney song, you better play that track. Broken glass and drops of blood were found on the floor of the bar. Maybe Mr. DJ shouldn't be commenting on Gerrard's cranberry juice choice of drinking.
The Liverpool club has offered their full support to Gerrard. "Steven has been an outstanding servant to Liverpool for the last ten years and the club will give him all the support he needs at this time," He will appear in court next month for these charges.
Bloody Brits!

Present workshop
The 7th Critical Metals meeting (CMM 2020) - Northwest University, Xi'an, China
The 7th Critical Metals meeting will consist of world-leading geologists and geophysicists with valuable recent experience of exploration and research related to carbonatites and alkaline rocks. More than 10 world leading experts will be invited to take part in a collaborative workshop session to tackle key questions, leading to manuscript preparation in the best journals and related special issues as in past.
We would like you to be part of the project, and are writing now to invite you to join our meeting. Specifically, we would like to invite you to join the 7th Critical Metals meeting in China. The workshop will be held in Northwest University, Xi'an, China, and is entitled 'News and never ending true in high-tech metal deposits'. The workshop has two main objectives: to contribute to an understanding of shallow critical metals deposits and concentration of high-tech metals within them, and to discuss three-dimensional concepts of geomodels using geological and geophysical evidence. The first three days of the meeting will be based in Northwest University, Xi'an, China. It will continue for 5 more dayes in the field where we organize expert fieltrips to main and the most interesting critical metals deposits in China. We would be very grateful if you would consider submitting an extended abstract (1-4 sides of A4) and presenting a seminar (15 minutes including questions) with a title of your choosing on your experience of one of the following:
Session 1 – Shallow plumbing systems:
The question addressed by the consortium is 'How can we understand better the plumbing systems in shallow intrusive complexes, down to 1-2 km beneath volcanics, the most important environment for hi-tech element mineralisation?' The session aims to bring together contributions from geological and geochemical investigations of natural laboratories with a variety of approaches to modelling of magmatic systems. Contributions will be solicited relating to both carbonatites/alkaline rocks and other magmatic systems to determine what synergies exist.
Session 2 – Geology for Geomodels:
The session aims to create an overview of the datasets that have been collected at each of the natural laboratories around the world. Subsequently, this would lead to an interrogation of the aspects of the key data sets that can be compared and combined to develop geomodels. We would like to discuss the creation and use of large datasets, including those relating to mineral chemistry.
Session 3: Geophysics for geomodels
The session aims to bring together geophysical information relating to transects through igneous complexes at different levels of erosion, which could inspire discussion of how geophysical responses would vary within a three-dimensional structure.
It is intended that each session will include a short discussion that will be further developed in subsequent project meetings.
Any urgent queries regarding the Workshop or visa-related requests can be sent to Jindrich Kynicky (firstname.lastname@example.com) or Wenlei Song.

Community media can be described as any form of media that is created and controlled by a community, with the essential idea to engage groups that categorically have been excluded and marginalized from the media making process. In a more globalized information age, community media manages to develop several paths and directions for local communities that can facilitate the intersection with the global communication and information network.
Definitions of contemporary community media can encompass both geographical boundaries as well as a community of interest or shared identity. As the world embraces the Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) in development projects, new benefits as well as disadvantages are therefore discovered. Tied to both opportunities and threats, competing ends and approaches are contributing to a digital divide, and sources for comparisons within the new media and ICT approach are abundant.
This community media blog is focusing on community media as a development communication tool, cohesive to the participatory communication model and the communication for development approach to enable social change. It is developed in order to acknowledge and create dialogue around the concept of community media and how it can be used as a development communication tool. Our vision with this blog is to interchange ideas on how new media and ICTs can challenge traditional community media and benefit from contemporary media with civic participation.

Security briefing template, In the company world, time is a precious asset and A fantastic way to start saving time in developing your company is to use ready-made templates. Templates can be used to quickly develop websites, advertising campaigns, business cards and more. Typically these templates can be bought from large wholesalers online for penny on the buck. The quality and type of templates available may vary considerably, but below are some descriptions of the most often used types of templates and also the ones that can often help save you the most cash.
If you are going to search for the ideal internet business template online, you might discover you'll never run out of choices as there's a wide array of different templates that you can easily make use of today. Besides the fact that they're readily accessible, yet another fantastic thing about them is that you can get nearly all of them at no cost. Though there are individuals who sell theirs for a price, it's up to you to choose which one will have the ability to give you more advantages. Never forget to experience the pros and cons of all the options before you decide on which option you should take.
Another fantastic thing about using online business templates is that it takes away the guesswork out of beginning your online endeavor. All you want to so is to follow what is written about the template and pretty soon you'll be able to find a very clear idea on how you can start your own organization. You will find that each of the basic details you need in creating your online venture is in one nifty package. Remember, the more insightful and detailed the company template is, the greater it will serve your business in the long run. Just be sure to opt for an internet small business template that's best suited to your own situation. In this manner, you'll be able to adapt marketing strategies and business processes that will work for your business perfectly.
As templates are normally quite flexible, you have the choice to tweak out small details and plans so as to satisfy your business goals more effectively. You can choose to keep things you know you will benefit greatly from and in precisely the same time, take away ideas which you might deem worthless to your cause. The important issue is that you don't become a slave to a template. Don't be afraid to change it because it reality, you will need to upgrade it a couple of times before it begins to prove its value. You should rather, find ways to make it work for you. It is all about making sure your business plan reflects your ideals and goals of your business.

The governing fact in the situation, the fact that Neaera did not see her way to meet, was that Mrs. Bort was an honest woman.
Neaera could not afford to pity the hapless wights over whom Mrs. Bort would rule.
There was a little scuffle; then the door flew open, and Mrs. Bort appeared, with Neaera clinging helplessly about her knees.
It was also generous of Neaera to send Mrs. Bort ten pounds immediately after that lady had treated her so cruelly.
It was honest of Mrs. Bort to refuse to accept money which she thought might be the proceeds of burglary.
He was born at Bort, in the district of Limoges, in 1723, and obtained some provincial reputation in letters.

103 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits,
3 who forgives all your iniquity,
who heals all your diseases,
4 who redeems your life from the pit,
who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
5 who satisfies you with good
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
6 The Lord works righteousness
and justice for all who are oppressed.
7 He made known his ways to Moses,
his acts to the people of Israel.
8 The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9 He will not always chide,
nor will he keep his anger forever.
10 He does not deal with us according to our sins,
nor repay us according to our iniquities.
11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
12 as far as the east is from the west,
so far does he remove our transgressions from us.
13 As a father shows compassion to his children,
so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him.
14 For he knows our frame;[a]
he remembers that we are dust.
15 As for man, his days are like grass;
he flourishes like a flower of the field;
16 for the wind passes over it, and it is gone,
and its place knows it no more.
17 But the steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him,
and his righteousness to children's children,
18 to those who keep his covenant
and remember to do his commandments.
19 The Lord has established his throne in the heavens,
and his kingdom rules over all.
20 Bless the Lord, O you his angels,
you mighty ones who do his word,
obeying the voice of his word!
21 Bless the Lord, all his hosts,
his ministers, who do his will!
22 Bless the Lord, all his works,
in all places of his dominion.
Bless the Lord, O my soul!

5 Let me sing for my beloved
my love song concerning his vineyard:
My beloved had a vineyard
on a very fertile hill.
2 He dug it and cleared it of stones,
and planted it with choice vines;
he built a watchtower in the midst of it,
and hewed out a wine vat in it;
and he looked for it to yield grapes,
but it yielded wild grapes.
3 And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem
and men of Judah,
judge between me and my vineyard.
4 What more was there to do for my vineyard,
that I have not done in it?
When I looked for it to yield grapes,
why did it yield wild grapes?
5 And now I will tell you
what I will do to my vineyard.
I will remove its hedge,
and it shall be devoured;[a]
I will break down its wall,
and it shall be trampled down.
6 I will make it a waste;
it shall not be pruned or hoed,
and briers and thorns shall grow up;
I will also command the clouds
that they rain no rain upon it.
7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts
is the house of Israel,
and the men of Judah
are his pleasant planting;
and he looked for justice,
but behold, bloodshed;[b]
for righteousness,
but behold, an outcry![c]
8 Woe to those who join house to house,
who add field to field,
until there is no more room,
and you are made to dwell alone
in the midst of the land.
9 The Lord of hosts has sworn in my hearing:
"Surely many houses shall be desolate,
large and beautiful houses, without inhabitant.
10 For ten acres[d] of vineyard shall yield but one bath,
and a homer of seed shall yield but an ephah."[e]
11 Woe to those who rise early in the morning,
that they may run after strong drink,
who tarry late into the evening
as wine inflames them!
12 They have lyre and harp,
tambourine and flute and wine at their feasts,
but they do not regard the deeds of the Lord,
or see the work of his hands.
13 Therefore my people go into exile
for lack of knowledge;[f]
their honored men go hungry,[g]
and their multitude is parched with thirst.
14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged its appetite
and opened its mouth beyond measure,
and the nobility of Jerusalem[h] and her multitude will go down,
her revelers and he who exults in her.
15 Man is humbled, and each one is brought low,
and the eyes of the haughty[i] are brought low.
16 But the Lord of hosts is exalted[j] in justice,
and the Holy God shows himself holy in righteousness.
17 Then shall the lambs graze as in their pasture,
and nomads shall eat among the ruins of the rich.
18 Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of falsehood,
who draw sin as with cart ropes,
19 who say: "Let him be quick,
let him speed his work
that we may see it;
let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near,
and let it come, that we may know it!"
20 Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter!
21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes,
and shrewd in their own sight!
22 Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine,
and valiant men in mixing strong drink,
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe,
and deprive the innocent of his right!
24 Therefore, as the tongue of fire devours the stubble,
and as dry grass sinks down in the flame,
so their root will be as rottenness,
and their blossom go up like dust;
for they have rejected the law of the Lord of hosts,
and have despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 Therefore the anger of the Lord was kindled against his people,
and he stretched out his hand against them and struck them,
and the mountains quaked;
and their corpses were as refuse
in the midst of the streets.
For all this his anger has not turned away,
and his hand is stretched out still.

27 The Lord is my light and my salvation;
whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold[a] of my life;
of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When evildoers assail me
to eat up my flesh,
my adversaries and foes,
it is they who stumble and fall.
3 Though an army encamp against me,
my heart shall not fear;
though war arise against me,
yet[b] I will be confident.
4 One thing have I asked of the Lord,
that will I seek after:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord
and to inquire[c] in his temple.
5 For he will hide me in his shelter
in the day of trouble;
he will conceal me under the cover of his tent;
he will lift me high upon a rock.
6 And now my head shall be lifted up
above my enemies all around me,
and I will offer in his tent
sacrifices with shouts of joy;
I will sing and make melody to the Lord.
7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud;
be gracious to me and answer me!
8 You have said, "Seek[d] my face."
My heart says to you,
"Your face, Lord, do I seek."[e]
9 Hide not your face from me.
Turn not your servant away in anger,
O you who have been my help.
Cast me not off; forsake me not,
O God of my salvation!
10 For my father and my mother have forsaken me,
but the Lord will take me in.
11 Teach me your way, O Lord,
and lead me on a level path
because of my enemies.
12 Give me not up to the will of my adversaries;
for false witnesses have risen against me,
and they breathe out violence.
13 I believe that I shall look[f] upon the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living!
14 Wait for the Lord;
be strong, and let your heart take courage;
wait for the Lord!
97 The Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice;
let the many coastlands be glad!
2 Clouds and thick darkness are all around him;
righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
3 Fire goes before him
and burns up his adversaries all around.
4 His lightnings light up the world;
the earth sees and trembles.
5 The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,
before the Lord of all the earth.
6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness,
and all the peoples see his glory.
7 All worshipers of images are put to shame,
who make their boast in worthless idols;
worship him, all you gods!
8 Zion hears and is glad,
and the daughters of Judah rejoice,
because of your judgments, O Lord.
9 For you, O Lord, are most high over all the earth;
you are exalted far above all gods.
10 O you who love the Lord, hate evil!
He preserves the lives of his saints;
he delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
11 Light is sown[a] for the righteous,
and joy for the upright in heart.
12 Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous,
and give thanks to his holy name!
English Standard Version (ESV) The Holy Bible, English Standard Version Copyright © 2001 by Crossway Bibles, a division of Good News Publishers.
2 So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. 2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation— 3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.
4 As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, 5 you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 For it stands in Scripture:
"Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,
a cornerstone chosen and precious,
and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame."
7 So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe,
"The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone,"[a]
8 and
"A stone of stumbling,
and a rock of offense."
They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.
9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
11 Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul. 12 Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

We ate a lot of dim sum in Hong Kong. A lot. Like almost every day. And Michelin-starred dim sum at that. We tried the Tsim Sha Tsui Lei Garden, and actually went to Din Tai Fung twice as we liked it so much (both Lei Garden and Din Tai Fung have one Michelin star). At the top of our list, however, was the three-star Cantonese restaurant Lung King Heen, on the fourth floor of the Four Seasons Hotel. Lung King Heen has a full Cantonese menu, but we went for dim sum and stuck to that plan ordering all but two items on the menu. We liked the way they dressed up some typical dim sum dishes (like the siu mai) and added a few things that you'd have a hard time finding elsewhere (hello...abalone puff!). All dim sum should be this good.
In terms of the photos, I was happy to be seated next to a window in the middle of the afternoon with mostly cloudy skies. After having taken a lot of food shots on this trip practically in the dark, I was happy to be able to stop down to f/5.6 to get more depth of field and not worry about noise from high ISO at all. I think these are the most successful food pictures from the entire trip—and all because I had good light.

Angler Fish Challenges Frog's 'Smallest' Title Sitting end to end, two recently discovered frogs couldn't straddle a dime. Still, one scientist contends these diminutive creatures aren't record setting. Instead, he champions a tiny male fish for the title of smallest vertebrate, or animal with a backbone. The contenders: A tropical frog Paedophryne amanuensis, which averages just 0.30 inches (7.7 millimeters) long, was given the "smallest vertebrate" title this week when news broke of its discovery Wednesday (Jan. 12). However, a male angler fish (Photocorynus spiniceps), which lives as a parasite on the angler-fish female and can measure as much as 0.03 in. (0.8 mm) less than the smallest of these tiny frogs, deserves the title, according to Ted Pietsch, curator of fishes at the Burke Museum at the University of Washington. The smallest of the newly identified frog species measures 0.28 in. (7.0 mm) from the tip of its snout to its anus, or vent.

Theoretically, the lowest temperature that can be achieved is absolute zero, exactly ?273.15°C, where the motion of all particles stops completely. However, you can never actually cool something to this temperature because, in quantum mechanics, every particle has a minimum energy, called "zero-point energy," which you cannot get below.
List of cat breeds The following list of cat breeds includes domestic cat breeds and domestic/wild hybrids. The list includes established breeds recognized by various cat registries, new and experimental breeds, distinct domestic populations not being actively developed and lapsed breeds. Inconsistency in breed classification among registries means that an individual animal may be considered different breeds by different registries. For example, The International Cat Association's Himalayan is considered a colorpoint version of the Persian by the Cat Fanciers' Association while the CFA's Javanese is considered a color variation of the Balinese by TICA. The domestic shorthair and domestic longhair are not breeds but terms used in cat fancy to describe cats that do not belong to a particular breed.

Virtual-Lancaster Cinema Page. Read on for the weekly round-up and reviews.
New releases this period include an excellent Disney animation with Frozen (PG), and a re-release of the classic Mary Poppins (U).
With the approach of Christmas there is a good selection of family based films including Free Birds (U), Saving Santa (U) and Saving Mr. Banks (PG). Also this is a good period for horror stories with the remake of Carrie plus a chance to catch the 1979 version of Nosferatu the Vampyre and the 1952 version of The Phantom of the Opera.
For something different the Dukes is offering an insight into the secret meanings of numerous cinema favourites with The Pervert's Guide to Ideology.
Free Birds
Director: Jimmy Hayward
Certificate: U
Cast includes: Owen Wilson, Keith David, Colm Meaney, Woody Harrelson, Amy Poehler, Dan Fogler
Two turkeys (as in birds, not films), Reggie and Jake, use a time machine to attend
the first Thanksgiving meal in an attempt to get turkey removed from
subsequent thanks-giving dinners. Reggie is from a free-range turkey farm
and he realises why turkeys are being fattened! Jake has the vision of commandeering the time machine in an attempt to change
history. The film has some romantic interest with Reggie falling for
Jenny, a turkey he meets during the adventure. In all the plot of this
animation seems a little over complicated and the film contains some
rude humour that may not be appropriate for the very young. In all an
entertaining movie but one that is not destined to become a classic.
Director: Chris Buck
Certificate PG
Cast Includes Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Josh Gad, Alan Tudyk, Jonathan Groff
This Disney musical animation is loosely based on the fairy
tale 'The Snow Queen'. The queen has condemned a kingdom to eternal
winter. It is up to Anna (her sister) and loner Kristoff to undertake
an epic journey to find the Snow Queen and convince her to lift the icy
spell. This is a magical movie destined to become a classic. It will
appeal to families and children of all ages and makes an ideal movie for
Director: Alfonso Cuarón
Certificate: 12A
Cast Includes: Sandra Bullock, George Clooney
Ryan Stone (Bullock) a medical engineer and seasoned astronaut Matt
Kowalsky (Clooney) are on a shuttle mission to repair the Hubble
Telescope. However during a routine space walk, disaster strikes as the
shuttle is destroyed by impact from space debris and Stone tumbles free
in space. The film follows Stone's plight as she battles to survive.
Bullock gives a superlative performance in this spectacularly shot movie.
However the interest of the film is not the impressive special effects
but rather the exploration of human frailty in adversity.
Director: Stephen Frears
Certificate: 12A
Cast includes: Judi Dench, Steve Coogan
A quaint and charming film based on the book 'The Lost Child of
Philomena Lee' by Martin Sixsmith. Dench plays Philomena, an Irish
woman who had her baby taken from her for adoption in the USA whilst she
was forced to live in a convent after becoming pregnant out of wedlock.
Much later in life she enlists the help of Sixsmith to try to discover
the whereabouts of her lost son. Coogan produced the film and co-wrote
the screenplay. He plays Sixsmith, the journalist who has fallen out
of favour. Both Dench and Coogan give superb performances in this funny
and heartwarming if a little sentimental film. Well worth seeing.
Saving Mr. Banks
Director: John Lee Hancock
Certificate PG
Cast Includes Emma Thompson, Bradley Whitford, Colin Farrell, Tom Hanks
A film exploring the tribulations as Walt Disney battled to make the
musical 'Mary Poppins'. Disney promised his daughters that he would
make a film of the book, but the author, Mrs Travers, proved to be
difficult to work with and had very fixed ideas regarding the
interpretation of her work. She hated the sentimentalization of her
book and the use of animation. She only gave grudging approval as she
needed the money. This film is more sentimental than accurate, and
includes numerous flashbacks regarding Traver's rather troubled life.
Acting is great and the friction between Mrs Travers (Emma Thompson) and
Walt Disney (Tom Hanks) makes for compelling viewing.
The Best Man Holiday
Director: Malcolm D. Lee
Certificate: 15
Cast includes: Morris Chestnut, Terrence Howard, Taye Diggs, Regina Hall, Sanaa Lathan
This is a sequel to 'The Best Man' which was released 14 years ago
and explored the humour when an author (Harper) is best man at a wedding
when his due to be released book shows his friends in an unflattering
light. 'The Best Man Holiday' sees the college friends as they are
reunited. The opening credits bring the audience 'up to speed' on the
history of the characters and the film is a comedy exploring the
tensions and complications between a group of friends over the Christmas
period. The film contains sexual innuendo and some sadness but
succeeds in being an excellent and enjoyable comedy.
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
Director: Francis Lawrence
Certificate: 12A
Cast Includes: Woody Harrelson, Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Stanley Tucci, Elizabeth Banks, Donald Sutherland
The Hunger Games started as an extremely successful trilogy by
Suzanne Collins. For this reviewer, the first Hunger Games excursion
into film felt a little clunky. However the Hunger Games: Catching Fire
got everything right and is a first rate movie. Katniss Everdeen was
the winner in the 74th Hunger Games tournament and as victor she and
Peeta Mellark must undertake a victors tour of the districts. However
rebellion is 'in the air' and the ruler, President Snow, sees Katniss as
a potential threat to the status quo. Hence he plots to discredit and
kill her by involving her in a new Hunger Games along with old winners.
So the participants need to defeat President Snow as well as avoiding
killing each other. This is a dark, tense, thrilling and very enjoyable
Thor: The Dark World
Director: Alan Taylor
Certificate: 12A
Cast Includes: Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston,
Stellan Skarsgård, Kat Dennings
Thor must combat an ancient, pervasive and powerful enemy, led by
Malekith, to save the earth and all the realms. Much of the action is
played out in Asgard and the interaction between Thor and Loki provides a
major part of the film. However there is plenty of action and a strong
vein of humour. In all a film that is very entertaining and does not
take itself too seriously.
Director: David Soren
Certificate: U
Cast Includes: Ryan Reynolds, Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Peña
A DreamWorks animation in which Turbo is a snail obsessed
with racing cars who dreams of competing in the Indianapolis 500 race.
His hopes start to look more realistic when an accident with a car
engine provides him with a magical turn of speed. The animation is
expertly done. The snails have cute believable personalities and the
whole has a real 'feelgood' factor of an underdog following his dreams.
The film follows the DreamWorks hit animation 'The Croods' and whilst
it is extremely enjoyable, it lacks twists and subplots that make for a
really memorable movie.

Is Yara Marine the Leading SOx Cleaning Technology?
The IMO fuel sulfur content regulation is a game changer for shipping. As the 2020 global sulfur limit approaches, many shipowners are scrambling to comply with the tough, new global limit of 0.50 percent m/m.
Others, despite the looming January 1 deadline, remain blasé about the whole thing, opting to pay potential fines instead of making million-euro scrubber investments. Most likely after the rules swing into force, the light-heavy fuel price spread will spike and refining margins will be higher, particularly for complex refineries.
Shipowners have to stay ahead of the game, warns Peter Strandberg.
"Shipowners often get a bad rap of refusing to adopt new, innovative technologies and processes. Often that's due to valid cash concerns, especially in critical low-market cycles, but staying ahead of the game makes good business sense and these upcoming IMO regulations require it," he says.
Strandberg knows what he is talking about. As the CEO of Yara Marine Technologies, his company has consulted hundreds of shipowners during the past 36 months, landing between 200 and 300 scrubber deliveries– a number which will more than double in the coming years.
There are currently more than 1,320 ships with confirmed scrubber projects, reports DNV GL in its Overview of Scrubber Installations released September 7 this year.
"Sales are up significantly in 2018, with anticipated revenue of NOK 700 million, and we expect this growth to continue in 2019," says Strandberg, who is looking to hire another 60-80 people in addition to the current 100 employees.
It's all about value
Today shipping companies are under pressure to utilize their capital budgets wisely. They cannot overspend on the initial purchase of the marine scrubber or the operational expenditure during the lifetime of that asset. They must choose the right scrubber solution, most likely to range between €1 - 6 million.
Further, marine fuel is a huge bottom-line expenditure. Marine gas oil (MGO) is the highest class of marine fuel, with the lowest concentration of sulfur and particulates in the fuel, limited to less than 0.10 percent m/m. But it is expensive compared to heavy fuel oil (HFO). Scrubber technology is a low-cost alternative to low-sulfur fuel to control maritime emissions and meet MARPOL Annex VI compliance.
"The price gap between MGO and HFO is huge, currently a difference of some USD 300 per ton. Ships burning some 60 tons of HFO per day achieve amazing savings with our marine exhaust solutions," says Strandberg.
"We create value for shipowners from day one, giving a return of investment in one to two years. This is what shipowners want. This is a good business."
Quality and design score very high
Offering the market's highest-quality, lowest footprint and proven abatement scrubber solution comes with a premium price tag. But this hasn't deferred a growing market appetite for Yara Marine's patented design and technology. On the contrary, company production is bursting at the seams as sub-suppliers sign up to help Yara Marine meet market demand.
"Yara Marine is quality. Market demand for our inline SOx exhaust gas cleaning systems, able to operate in both open and closed loop, is huge and growing. We have increased production by several hundred percentages at all our facilities in Europe, North America and Asia," said Strandberg.
Driven by a relentless commitment to high-end technology, material, and components, Yara Marine purchases its own high-grade stainless steel and gives shipowners probably the best extended system guarantee in the world.
"I need to know where the steel is coming from. I need to see the certificate. We buy everything. This is a business of trust, not just a business of business," says Strandberg, outlining the challenges of scrubber deterioration caused by sulfur fumes, exhaust and gases.
"High-grade steel stops corrosion. We demand the best and back our high-quality systems with a seven-year warranty against corrosion."
Simple solution
Yara Marine inline scrubbers can be fitted during ship transit, thus no downtime and lost revenue. Fitting a scrubber can take as little as 10 – 20 days, but a detailed engineering plan and skilled workers are needed to avoid delay. There are no moving parts or bypass and system components require about the same space as the silencer they replace, simplifying installation.
"Simplicity has transformed our scrubbers in a most profound way. It has given the company a powerful competitive advantage by making a smart, user-friendly and flexible system. In shipping, complex solutions rarely work. Simple technology does," says the CEO.
Low OPEX minimum footprint
Yara Marine is the only abatement company to offer scrubber design that allows for both magnesium oxide (MgO) and caustic soda (NaOH) as alkali in closed loop.
Supplied as a powder and easily available at low cost across the globe, MgO represents no health or safety risk compared to NaOH. In addition, scrubber consumption of MgO is one-fourth the amount of NaOH thus requiring less storage space.
Strandberg explains: "There is much lower OPEX with MgO. The product is four times more effective than NaOH, it is cheap, and lower MgO quantities result in less solid waste, hence less disposal cost. In fact, the accumulated five-year use can give savings up close to USD 1 million compared to that of NaOH."
Yara Marine's low footprint enables maximum use of cargo space, optimizing profit.
"Choosing systems that could eliminate between 50 - 100 container spaces is bad business. Think about losing the income of those containers for the next 20 years. That's a lot of money," says Strandberg.
Shipping's most proven system
Product quality is how well the product does what it's supposed to do, and how well it holds up over time.
On board vessels in cruise, container and bulk segments, Yara Marine scrubbers aggregate running time in excess of two million hours.
"Our systems are proven. We deliver best-in-class scrubbers, tested and measured by millions of hours. We know the scrubber's asset lifecycle cost and provide predictive and proactive maintenance service plans," says Strandberg.
Yara Marine has a unique position in the marine exhaust gas cleaning market as a complete abatement specialist. It is the first company in the world to successfully run a dual SOx and NOx cleaning operation. And the first marine exhaust gas cleaning company to receive an Engine International Air Pollution Prevention (EIAPP) scheme B certificate, verifying full compliance of a combined system consisting of an engine and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology.
"We are continuously looking for more efficient and integrated ways to assist our marine customers and the EIAPP certificate confirms the unique market position of our company and the breadth of services we can provide our customers," concludes Strandberg.

I applaud you for standing up for what is right. I wish more people would so that we could have our voices heard as the overwhelming majority and finally have the sort of social revolution we so badly need in the western world. I'm from Sydney (Australia) and we are currently in the early stages of a new term of government from a terrifyingly conservative political party who have decided that making it illegal for activists to boycott companies, and repealing laws that make it illegal to insult or offend people based on their race, are two of the most urgent issues they need legislated! I fear that we are quickly headed down the same path of state sanctioned lunacy that you have spoken about here and sometimes I just don't know what to do... So not that it means much from somebody on the other side of the world that you've never met, but I am sorry that you had to go through this trauma. Never give up.

And people do not think criminals deserve anything "good" because they have caused so much "bad." When you read an article about a person being put to death by the state, half of the reader comments are about the inmate's last meal. And that he/she got to choose it, got to enjoy something. The reader is outraged. They do not believe these people deserve anything but a quick death. Even lethal injection is too humane for them. The appeals process is considered a waste of taxpayer money.
Very few people have compassion for people in jail. They think the justice system is fair and they are content to remain ignorant because they do not think it will ever be an issue in THEIR lives. Even decent, good, "normal" people believe there are bigger fish to fry.
I am a bail bondsman (do keep this mind as you all continue to be arrested ;). Most people I bail out are not habitual criminals. It is usually their first time. A traffic violation never paid, a DUI, or domestic violence (which encompasses a wide range of acts, many are verbal fights, but if anyone calls 911 the police are obligated to arrest), drug possession, and theft (usually an 18 yo kid with good parents). They see how jail is and never want to go back. And if they can afford me, and afford a lawyer, afford rehab, etc. then that is quite possible for them. Sadly this is not the reality for everyone.Shannon Freemanhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538710136825122268.post-82457726719285494972012-08-23T09:32:29.053-07:002012-08-23T09:32:29.053-07:00Reminded again how rare and vital a piece this is....Reminded again how rare and vital a piece this is.

> the sheer weight of connectivity I don't understand because I haven't, still haven't read enough books or seen enough film was almost too much.

This strikes such a deep chord within... it's a frequently recurring theme in my life. I guess it's tightly coupled with the idea that the more we know, the more we become aware of all that we don't, and thus each small step up the stairs serves to raise the height of the staircase exponentially.

Every time my brilliant high school english teacher threw open a new portal to some seemingly-obscure vantage point from which to view a new-to-us piece of remarkable literature (themes of light/dark in Hesse's "Demian" comes to mind), I found those already-fascinating two-dimensional stories expanding into three-dimensional Rubik's Cubes of intellectual puzzle-feasts. (Not sure what's with all the hyphens.. .weird.)

Unfortunately my experience at a midwestern commuter-college excuse for a state university echoes what you inferred about your high school years. As a result I've spent years envying the liberal arts undergrads who actually read much of the western canon, and had the arguable pleasure (but definite privilege) of deconstructing and debating the culminating themes of modern thinking with the undervalued blessing of learned guidance and moderation.

I was reminded yet again of this a few days ago when NPR interviewed an author who'd written about his quest to read all the books on Harvard's list of recommended reading for undergrads. I'm so tempted by this proposition, yet keenly aware of the divide between reading canonical literature on one's own versus actually studying it with a class and a great teacher. Much like a good creative writing class (and a lot of other things in life, now that I think about it) there is no substitute for inspired instruction.

Time to found a local lit salon, methinks. Know any great lit profs in the Bay Area with plenty of extra time on their hands? ;)

Thanks again for sharing your thoughts, really enjoying reading through your blog.

PS: If you haven't yet added "Princess Mononoke" and "Spirited Away" to your list of Miyazake films viewed, do so at once. :)firstname.lastname@example.com

I just couldn't resist. Upon arrival these looked more like the odd offering at Obie's in Maquoketa than Tasty Tacos in Des Moines. Though Fort Taco was probably the best of the bunch. First because of the crunch and second because they offered your choice of hot (Salsa Verde) or Mild (Red Sauce) and the verde packed a little punch. It's just a drive thru in an old Rally's space and the line was pretty long by the time I was pulling out so I wouldn't be surprised to see them expand in the area. Just don't expect a real deal San Antonio style Puffy Taco going in. As Jim said these are Des Moines style puffy tacos, a kind all their own.

What makes this place popular is the fact it's what Arby's used to be. It's not mystery meat and you can have as much au jus as you seem fit. Have a cup in place of some coffee if you want.

"You Snuck Your Way Right into My Heart" is Love Handel's hit song sung in the Phineas and Ferb episode "Dude, We're Getting the Band Back Together". This song is also one of the eight songs that was re-released in the Phineas and Ferb Karaoke Soundtrack.
- I should've known
- From how I felt
- When we were together
- And even more when we were apart
- You tiptoed in
- And you got under my skin
- You snuck your way right into my heart
- I put up barriers
- To shield my emotions
- A wall that you could never break apart
- But like a ninja of love
- Rappelling down from above
- You snuck your way right into my heart
- Oh yeah
- C'mon everybody, let me hear ya!
- Nah Na Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Nah
- (Yeah!)
- You snuck your way right into my heart!
- Nah Na Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Nah
- Yeah!
- Yeah!
- Goodnight, Tri-State Area!
Background Information
- In the song, it sounds like Danny is singing "repelling down from above", but the line is actually "rappelling down from above", since Isabella and the other girls descend on ropes during the song, completing the whole ninja metaphor. This has also been confirmed by Swampy Marsh.
- During the dialog between Vanessa and Johnny, the crowd and Danny can be heard singing a new part of the song faintly in the background. In the Phineas and Ferb soundtrack, it can be heard that Danny says "Yeah!, You Snuck Your Way Into My Heart!"
- In the episode version when Danny sings, it appears that he has more singers backing him up, but Sherman and Bobbi's mouthes are closed. In the album, this was edited so that only Danny's voice is heard and no other.
- Couldn't Kick My Way Into Her Heart is sung to the tune of this song.
- This song is one of the few times Isabella is seen without her bow. Others include "Phineas and Ferb Summer Belongs to You!" and "The Beak".
- This song was for Linda and Lawrence during the Farewell and Reunion Concert of Love Händel.
- If seen closely, you can see one of the singers from My Nemesis.
- The song was rewritten as Couldn't Kick My Way Into Her Heart in "Thaddeus and Thor ".

Can Loneliness Be considered a Man's Ideal Resource?
Do depressed males have a built in edge on their girl brethren? Most importantly, do they really certainly advantages from appearing exclusively?
Most many men are employed to struggling with loneliness considering that itAndnbsp;will start in the formative ages. Contemporary society motivates dads and moms to fawn throughout a small amount of women, to make them sense you are princesses. Most ladies get the vast majority of care from the beginning and be trained incredibly early on methods for getting what they really want by way of easy manipulation. Young men accomplish this on top of that, and yet given that they mature normally, this is frowned following. Being brought up that will be quality, personal-sufficient, and defending of ladies, young men gain knowledge from the outset that women need to be fawned during, prized, and placed with a pedestal.
Then comes along the tough truth of age of puberty.
Chemicals set out to kick in. The common child, who often grows earlier than sexy russian brides most young men, actually starts to recognise her feeling of truly worth all through great beauty and style. This newly found capability get her way flows straight away to her go, and she wields this control of her hapless guy friends for example a razor distinct battle axe. Any little lady who seems to be even mildly enticing need not be concerned about currently being on their own-actually ever, and she understands it.
Little boys, however, should settle for an entirely a number of fact and alter correctly with the intention to fully grasp how to manage loneliness.
Most guys, directly on reaching adolescence, wind up with a fabulous vacuum of sensual powerlessness. After a while can come boldness for most and good results for quite a few. Unfortunately as any young men growing up can appropriately testify, rejection and loneliness are only two constants that must definitely be resolved whether model desires it or perhaps not.
As time marches on lots of men whoAndnbsp;doAndnbsp;hook up cling for your partner in life not very a whole lot of through enjoy and support, but from an serious the fear of actually all alone. Girls achieve this as well ,Andnbsp;but let's be big, with all information currently being even it is probably going to be simplier and easier for girls to pinpoint a new husband or wife (irrespective of their measure of compatibility) than it is males.
Several alone adult males quite frankly stop trying dealing with loneliness by regressing into a lifetime of replacement. Regardless whether he results in being obsessed with porn, an individual-nights stands, prostitutes, or simply celibacy, a good deal contributes to one sore regular: Loneliness.
But can loneliness be good for you? What conceivable motive can the heartache of loneliness help?
Here's what you should do at the time you appear alone: Whenever you give thought to how this feeling forces you to be believe and really feel, then you most definitely will without difficulty understand that it alerts you to the indisputable fact that your romantic relationships are insufficient and your own is required to belong will not be actually being fulfilled. Outside of that, loneliness encourages everyone to receive required activity that should minimize it. Emotions doAndnbsp;have a nice aim, regardless of how uncomfortable a lot of them will always make us get. When you can look at it therefore, truly being all on your own isn't 50 percent of as discouraging because you idea.
Remember among the intimate relationship downfalls you've received in times past. Do you everAndnbsp;rather presume you will be more satisfied if objects owned determined, or have you got a gut feeling that you choose and in truth dodged a bullet by missing the women you will have forfeited? More often than not we get so packaged up into the a sense of damage, we neglect to look at big picture.
