Rep. Adam Schiff warned Americans on Sunday to be wary of President Donald Trump's attempts to dismiss the investigation into Russia's role in the 2016 election.
Speaking to CNN's Jake Tapper, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee suggested that the White House likely tried to manipulate the congressional investigation by passing along documents to Rep. Devin Nunes, the Republican chairman of the committee.
Nunes then said those documents may indicate that President Barack Obama's administration incidentally surveilled Trump's team, a claim for which law enforcement officials have said there was no evidence.
After viewing the documents at the White House himself, Schiff asked how administration officials knew the documents he viewed were the same that were shown to Nunes.
"How does the White House know that these are the same materials that were shown to the chairman, if the White House wasn't aware what the chairman was being shown?" he asked.
"If these were produced either for or by the White House, then why all the subterfuge? There's nothing ordinary about the process that was used here at all."
Schiff added that he was suspicious of the president's attempts to undermine the credibility of the congressional investigations into Russia's involvement in the election.
"It certainly is an attempt to distract and to hide the origin of the materials, to hide the White House hand," Schiff said. "The question is of course why? And I think the answer to the question is this effort to point the congress in other directions. Basically say 'Don't look at me don't look at Russia, There's nothing to see here.'"
He added: "I would tell people whenever they see the president use the word 'fake,' that should set off alarm bells."
Both congressional Democrats and some Republicans have criticised Nunes' handling of the House investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and potential ties between Russian officials and members of the Trump campaign.
After receiving documents from White House officials that the chairman said indicate Trump staffers may have been incidentally surveilled, Nunes took the bizarre step of returning to the White House the next day to brief administration officials without consulting the House Intelligence Committee.
Democrats have called for Nunes to recuse himself, saying he is too close to the administration to run a fair investigation.

In one of my past life adventures, I was a part time, small scale sheep farmer. Well to be perfectly honest, I was a Border Collie Sheepdog Trainer, who owned sheep. But even with a "small" flock of, maybe, a 100 sheep you start to get keenly acquainted with the idea and importance of culling. There's seemingly an infinite number of qualities to cull on (hardiness, healthiness, ease of lambing etc.) but it usually boils down to making hard choices on what matters the most and then picking and choosing which lambs to keep.
Because the reality is you just don't get to have it all. At least not if you goal is to improve and excel.
And I think this concept is important in almost every aspect of life and especially relevant in photography. And it's one of the prime reasons I culled social media from my life.
Too often social media photography pushes you towards events. Whether it's eclipses, or super moons, or northern lights, or summer forest fire sunsets, or whatever is trending, there is a constant pull in a new direction. And those temptation are very hard to resist. At least they were for me.
So culling social media from my life has helped me to return my focus to photographing the things that I love and not be distracted toward the things that are popular. And at the same time pursuing photography that compliments both my Architectural & Real Estate Commercial work with my love of landscapes. And although at times it can be hard to say no, I've found that a "no" is really a "yes" to something else and something better.
Rural Architecture & Commercial Landscapes
So how does this play out in real life? Well in my case often when I shoot "landscapes" I end up with buildings as my subjects or important parts of my images. And that's no accident what with my love of Lighthouses, Churches, Barns and such. So, photographing Rural Architecture hones and reinforces the same skillset that I use in my Architecture Photography work and vice versa.
So, a trip to Patos Island reinforces and trains the same skills as a Commercial Twilight Architectural shoot.
As does a Commercial Exterior shot and a Long Exposure Black and White image.
Or an old Palouse Barn in a sea of grass and a Real Estate Exterior from across the bay
Or a Scottish Seascape and a Real Estate Sunrise view shot.
And I could go on and on. But the key is to photograph what you love, dive in deep and don't get too distracted.
And a small footnote on gear
And let's not forgot about gear. One of the hardest things about being a "Jack of All Trades" photographer is compromising on gear. Because few folks can afford the cost and weight of carrying the optimized gear that each specialty would choose. So, most purchases become "average" or best "bang for the buck". I talk about this a bunch in my gear posts so I won't harp to much here. But suffice it to say that the more focused your photography, the better your photography kit is. No matter what your budget.

Other guides hit the topics in the College Board provided curriculum framework well but what sets this book apart is how those topics are directed at the skills necessary to succeed on the AP® exam. This moves beyond the assessments which are similar in difficulty and style to the items on released tests."

Google announced today that as of February 16, the City Experts program that encouraged G+ users to become active reviewers will be upgraded and now called Local Guides.
The new Local Guides program implements a multi level approach with benefits accruing based on the total number of reviews written. There is even a code of conduct and a more formalized benefits structure.
The new benefits structure attempts to reward users that are outside the cities where City Experts has been active and to create some level of incentives around writing more reviews. In that regard it is similar to how Google handles contributors in the forum and the progression from entry level to top contributor.
Here is the email announcing the updated program and my standing in the new program:
Welcome to Local Guides
Today we're happy to introduce an exciting update for our community of reviewers. City Experts is now Local Guides, available to people everywhere.
Local Guides is a community of explorers who write reviews of places on Google. When you write local reviews, you help others feel at home in the world, anywhere they go.
Be sure to read the Local Guides Program Rules that go into effect on February 16, 2015. If you decide they are not for you, you can opt-out at any time.
Starting now, because you've written between 50 and 199 reviews, you'll begin as a Level 3 Local Guide. You can access all the benefits available at Levels 1-2, including applying to become a Trusted Tester of Google products and features before public release. Plus, you've unlocked additional benefits available to Level 3 Local Guides:
- Get highlighted in the Google Maps app with a Local Guides badge
- Join our private Google+ community
- In select cities, get invites to exclusive events
- Apply to moderate Local Guides Google+ Communities
Write reviews to become a Level 4 Local Guide and unlock even more benefits.
Thanks for being a part of our community.

I despise politics so much. And I suspect most Americans do too. Those involved treat it like a sports game and treat the voters like spectators and fans.
Republicans and Democrats are the two main teams, and Americans are expected to root for one of them. "True" team players are going to trash the other side to embolden their fan base.
Both sides are nasty to each other, and they both justify it and deny it at the same time. When they show themselves to be hypocrites, they always explain that it's "different" this time, compared to when the other side did it to them.
Many Republicans voiced disapproval of Barack Obama during his eight years in office, and particularly at the beginning of his terms. There were many who said he wasn't legitimate. And how did Democrats respond? That any criticism of him is actually evidence of our own "racial bigotry." In other words, we didn't think he was "legitimate," because he was black. He didn't "look like us." Further, they told us that we had to get over it, and that Obama's our president now.
Trending: A Message for Obama – "Woe to those who call evil good and good evil."
Now that everything's turned around, they're the ones saying that Trump isn't legitimate and that he's "not their president." And of course, they're not being nasty. According to them, what they're doing now is completely different from what Republicans did during Obama's terms in office. That was racial bigotry. When Democrats do it, it's "righteous indignation."
Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA) was open about her disgust with the President-elect. She's one of dozens of representatives who will not be attending his inauguration. She said very matter of factly: "I don't honor him; I don't respect him; and I don't want to be involved with him."
Rep. Waters on Trump: "I don't honor him. I don't respect him, and I don't want to be involved with him." https://t.co/WRLNsw71Jt
— MSNBC (@MSNBC) January 17, 2017
Now, we could very well claim – as Democrats did to Republicans – that this is clear evidence of racial bigotry against Trump; that people like John Lewis and Maxine Waters – who both happen to be black – are criticizing Trump, simply because he's white; because he doesn't "look like them."
Sure, they'll respond that it has nothing to do with his being white
and privileged, and that it has everything to do with…Russia interfering. (Uh-huh.) But we all know that it's their deep-seated racism that's driving them to say that he's "not their president" and that he's not "legitimate." That's what the Democrat team did to the Republican team, so we've got to do the same play at them to keep the game going.
Democrats claimed Republicans were speaking in racist "code" language. Maybe that's what all these Democrats are doing.
Oh, that's right. It's "different" this time.

Cyberqueer, Bailiwick Repertory. Playwrights and theatergoers seem fascinated by proxy love, like the answering-service romance in Bells Are Ringing. And in the gay community the fear of AIDS has spawned various kinds of high-tech safe-sex love: Robert Chesley's Jerker exposed the anonymous underworld of phone sex, and now Cyberqueer--LA playwright Tom Jacobson's tribute to the powers of imagination and deception on the Internet--details a descent into the mail-strom.
This 75-minute romp chronicles the adventures of Nelson, a linguistics professor who logs onto a gay "chat room" and becomes addicted to "a bunch of people typing orgasms." Jacobson's script embodies the on-line mayhem, including strident SHOUTERS, sideways smiley faces, and deflating typos ("duck" for "dick"); echoing Dorothy, one cybernaut remarks, "People come and go so quickly here." Nelson creates an Internet alter ego ("Thor") who denies his real-life paunch and puss and tumbles for a mystery man, "Darkhorse." Together they switch sexes and styles, trying to trap the other into consistency, if not commitment. Finally, sacrificing their computer camouflage, the men risk real life and love: Jacobson's surprise ending questions the need for so much self-defeating sublimation.
Though the cyber-sex simulations wax silly, Keith Geller and David Zak's staging zips along, buoyed by an attractive cast. Cunning performances include Scott Cooper's needy Nelson, Darren Stephens as his hunky alias, and Angelo Petronio as the dashing Darkhorse.

Previous Challenge Entry (Level 3 - Advanced)
Topic: Vines (11/21/05)
TITLE: A Fat Lot of Use | Previous Challenge Entry
By Sally Hanan
"Vines," my editor said, "go with a vines theme; we're putting a book together – an anthology of short stories, prose, poetry etc. - and we'd like your writing in it. Unfortunately, your deadline is Sunday night. Can you get it in by then?" I could hear her apologetic, yet hopeful tone.
"Sure, no problem." A sigh of relief came from the other end of the phone.
Flattered at her enthusiasm for my work, my cinematographic mind whirred into action.
On Monday, I visualized a woman's bejeweled hand slowly disappearing under a buffed rug of murdering tendrils. Despite the killer ending, the story line remained elusive.
On Tuesday, I saw a young man rejected by love's first kiss, and he entered the vine covered monastery walls to dedicate his life to prayer and artistic pursuits. His choice caused many sinners to be brought to salvation - through his painstakingly copied holy books, and his long hours of intercession on a chilled stone floor.
Wednesday showed me Rapunzel climbing out the narrow tower window and down the wall of vines alone, after strangling the evil witch with her shorn braids. (Prince Charming didn't respond fast enough.)
Thursday's vine was a big leafy, fruity bush with one wide bare branch that hung out near the ground. It fed off and passed on gossip, (hence the song, "Heard it on the Grapevine") until God came along with His big pruning shears and lopped it off. Just because it was an impressively big and obvious branch didn't make it necessary.
Friday had me thinking about the kudzu vine, which has taken over an estimated 7 million acres of the US southeast countryside. It is not considered a helpful plant at all, like some people I have had the pleasure of working with.
On Saturday, I thought of how vines can become the staple support system of the walls they grow on, and how, if the owner tries to remove them, the walls collapse. Certain individuals think they are like those vines in their churches. Fortunately, many faithful others ARE like those vines.
And now it is Sunday. I'm thinking of "young knockout marries old geezer with loads of money" type of story. Her main focus is looking good to others, so she whips the gardens at the mansion into shape -for future outdoor parties. Her evil stepchildren (who really want all their dad's money for themselves) plant a single vine in a shady corner, where she won't see it. It begins to take over every flowerbed until it starts to cover her - a mix of Monday and Friday's ideas.
The thing is, it is still Sunday, and I have yet to send any completed inspiration on to my editor, but I have learned an incredibly important life lesson: writers can have the greatest ideas in the world, but they are a fat lot of use to anyone, including God, if the writers don't take the time to fulfill the assignments given them.
P.S. My editor is looking for new writers … for an assignment due in tonight … any takers??
P.P.S. Don't tell her I referred you.

"Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed" (Genesis 2:24-25 NKJV). God created Adam, then Eve, and this was the first and last time that nakedness was of no concern. A hetero-sexual marriage relationship should be so open, a husband and wife "become one flesh." Since sin entered the world, and Adam and Eve were put out of the Garden of Eden, "shame" has always been associated with nakedness outside of marriage. "None of you shall approach anyone who is near of kin to him, to uncover his nakedness: I am the LORD" (Leviticus 18:6 NKJV). God's people sinned, so God would "uncover your skirts over your face, That your shame may appear" (Jeremiah 13:25-26 NKJV). To be naked in public is shameful!

EQUIP AUTO, the international trade show for automotive aftersales and services for mobility, scheduled from 17 to 21 October at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, has confirmed its role as a platform for the discovery of the underlying trends shaping the automobile repair, maintenance and services markets.
In partnership with DIGITAL BUSINESS NEWS, the video news channel dedicated to startups and the new economy, EQUIP AUTO introduces the Innovation & Startups Park, a space located at the entrance to Hall 1 bringing together French and international startups and innovative firms working in the field of the mobility of goods and people. The aims of this Park are to support repair professionals in this phase of change and to facilitate contacts between "traditional" aftersales professionals and young innovative firms which are already anticipating what automotive aftersales will be like in the future.
EQUIP AUTO has designed an interactive forum on which each startup is invited to pitch their project (current state of progress, next steps) and answer questions from the floor. In parallel, the teams from DIGITAL BUSINESS NEWS, also tasked with assisting participants in producing and delivering an effective and dynamic pitch, will film a video on the stand of each startup, which will be then be aired on the website equipauto.com.
To offer the best possible support to the startups expected to attend, the exhibition has chosen to offer à la carte participation options. To fulfil the needs of these young companies while not over-stretching their budget, they have the opportunity of exhibiting for any duration from 2 to 5 days at preferential rates.
Finally, the show is deploying a specific communications campaign around the Innovation & Startups Park, in the form of a direct marketing drive targeting more than 12,000 qualified contacts, a digital campaign on the major social media, specific visitor promotions and advertising, and a partnership with Viva Technology, the new international event dedicated to startups: a first-ever association backed up by a direct marketing campaign. All of this illustrates the desire of EQUIP AUTO to play an active role in the digital transition, guiding stakeholders in the automotive after sales and services sector and "preparing tomorrow"!

In less than two weeks' time, France will go to the polls. The first round of voting to choose François Hollande's successor is on 23 April, followed by the runoff between the top two candidates on 7 May. The outcome will shape France and the EU, and will have an immense bearing on the matrix of European relationships into which Brexit Britain is now beginning to feel its way. The importance of this contest cannot be overstated – but nor can the uncertainty about its outcome.
The race for the Élysée has become more unpredictable in the course of the campaign, not less. What had seemed in recent weeks to be hardening into a contest between Marine Le Pen of the far-right Front National and the centrist Emmanuel Macron may now be resolving into a four-way first-round contest involving the mainstream right-wing François Fillon and the radical left's Jean-Luc Mélenchon. A large group of minor candidates, all of whom had their day in the sun in last week's TV debate, will affect the result. A wider range of runoffs is now possible, including the nightmare scenario for the established parties, a Le Pen-Mélenchon head-to-head. The chances that France may be about to add a new chapter to the disruptions of Brexit and the Trump presidency are very real indeed.
Right now, the rise of Mr Mélenchon is the most dynamic element in the changing mix. Capitalising on the anti-establishment mood and on the weakness of the socialist party's campaign for Benoît Hamon, he offers a rebellious wishlist of higher taxes and greater public spending, nationalisation and a break with EU treaties, with a peppering of strongly pro-Russian and anti-western stances. He has put on six points in recent weeks, spoke at a huge rally in Marseille at the weekend, and may be pushing past Mr Fillon into third spot in the contest at exactly the right time to threaten the frontrunners.
The result is that three "outsiders" now lead the polls. They may take as much as two-thirds of the vote in the first round between them. This reflects the collapse of France's post-war parties of right and left, dogged by the decades-long failure to bring a solution to high unemployment (over 10% nationwide, and 24% for 18-25s). Paradoxically, inequality in France remains lower than in Britain, Germany and the US. Its welfare state has partly cushioned the economy from the fallout of the 2009 financial crisis. But popular outrage about Parisian elites and financial scandals has added to a toxic mix.
Ms Le Pen and Mr Macron continue to be favourites. The former stands for a closed-off France, hunkered down behind its borders, with a protectionist, anti-globalisation, anti-immigration and aggressively anti-EU stance. The latter wants to embrace openness and diversity, reform France's stifled labour market and trim public spending (currently at 56% of GDP), as well as rejuvenate the EU project alongside Germany. Mr Macron is running a resilient and upbeat campaign. But the Le Pen vote will be very strong. Extreme-right ideas have taken root and become more mainstream than before – Ms Le Pen's latest provocation is to dismiss Vichy France's role in the deportation of French Jews in 1942. There is talk of a tidal wave of support in many parts of the country. Let us hope not. But she will shape France whether she wins or not. These are perilous days.

Book 10 Rise and Establishment of Protestantism in Sweden and Denmark
Chapter 7 Introduction of Protestantism into Denmark
Resource Toolbox
Paul Elia Inclines to Protestantism Returns to Rome Petrus Parvus Code of Christian II. The New Testament in Danish Georgius Johannis Johannis Taussanus Studies at Cologne Finds Access to Luther's Writings Repairs to Wittemberg Returns to Denmark Re-enters the Monastery of Antvorskoborg Explains the Bible to the Monks Transferred to the Convent of Viborg Expelled from the Convent Preaches in the City Great Excitement in Viborg, and Alarm of the Bishops Resolve to invite Doctors Eck and Cochlaeus to Oppose Taussan Their Letter to Eck Their Picture of Lutheranism Their Flattery of Eck He Declines the Invitation.
IN tracing the progress of the Reformation in Sweden, our attention was momentarily turned toward Denmark. Two figures attracted our notice Arcimboldus, the legate-a-latere of Leo X., and Christian II., the sovereign of the country. The former was busy gathering money for the Pope's use, and sending off vast sums of gold to Rome; the latter, impatient of the yoke of the priests, and envious of the wealth of the Church, was trying to introduce the doctrines of Luther into Denmark, less for their truth than for the help they would give him in making himself master in his own dominions. Soon, however, both personages disappeared from the scene.
Arcimbold in due time followed his gold-bags to Italy, and Christian II., deposed by his subjects, retired to the court of his brother-in-law, Charles V. His uncle Frederick, Duke of Holstein and Schleswig, succeeded him on the throne. [1] This was in 1523, and here properly begins the story of the Reformation in Denmark.
Paul Elia, a Carmelite monk, was the first herald of the coming day. As early as 1520 the fame of Luther and his movement reached the monastery of Helsingfor, in which Elia held the rank of provincial. Smitten with an intense desire to know something of the new doctrine, he procured the writings of Luther, studied them, and appeared heartily to welcome the light that now broke upon him. The abuses of the Church of Rome disclosed themselves to his eye; he saw that a Reformation was needed, and was not slow to proclaim his conviction to his countrymen. He displayed for a time no small courage and zeal in his efforts to diffuse a knowledge of the truth in his native land. But, like Erasmus of Holland, and More of England, he turned back to the superstitions which he appeared to have left. He announced the advent of the heavenly kingdom, but did not himself enter in. [2]
Among the early restorers of the Gospel to Denmark, no mean place is due to Petrus Parvus. Sprung of an illustrious stock, he was not less distinguished for his virtues. Attracted to Wittemberg, like many of the Danish youth, by the fame of Luther and Melancthon, he there heard of a faith that brings forgiveness of sin and holiness of nature, and on his return home he labored to introduce the same gracious doctrine into Denmark. [3]
Nor must we pass over in silence the name of Martin, a learned man and an eloquent preacher, who almost daily in 1520 proclaimed the Gospel from the cathedral pulpit of Hafnia (Copenhagen) in the Danish tongue to crowded assemblies. [4] In 1522 came the ecclesiastical and civil code of Christian II., of which we have already spoken, correcting some of the more flagrant practices of the priests, forbidding especially appeals to Rome, and requiring that all causes should be determined the courts of the country. In the year following (1523) the king fled, leaving behind him a soil which had just begun to be broken up, and on which a few handfuls of seed had been cast very much at random.
In his banishment, Christian still sought opportunities of promoting the best interests of the land which had driven him out. One is almost led to think that amid all his vices as a man, and errors as a ruler, he had a love for Lutheranism, for its own sake, and not simply because it lent support to his policy. He now sent to Denmark the best of all Reformers, the Word of God. In Flanders, where in 1524 we find him residing, he caused the New Testament to be translated into the Danish tongue. It was printed at Leipsic, and issued in two parts the first containing the four Gospels, and the second the Epistles. It bore to be translated from the Vulgate, although the internal evidence made it undoubted that the translator had freely followed the German version by Luther, and possibly by doing so had the better secured both accuracy and beauty. [5] The book was accompanied with a preface by the translator, Johannis Michaelis, dated Antwerp, in which he salutes his "dear brethren and sisters of Denmark, wishing grace and peace to them in God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ." He bids them not be scared, by the bulls and other fulmination's of the Vatican, from reading what God has written; that the object of Rome is to keep them blindfolded, that they may believe implicitly all the fables and dreams she chooses to tell them. God, he says, has sent them, in great mercy, the Light by which they may detect the frauds of the impostor. "Grace and remission of sins," says he, "are nowhere save where the Gospel of God is preached. Whoever hears and obeys it, hears and knows that he is forgiven, and has the assurance of eternal life; whereas, they who go to Rome for pardon bring back nothing but griefs, a seared conscience, and a bit of parchment sealed with wax." [6] The priests stormed, but the Bible did its work, and the good fruits appeared in the following reign.
Frederick, the uncle of Christian, and Duke of Holstein and Schleswig,
was now upon the throne. A powerful priesthood, and an equally powerful nobility attached to the Romish Church, had exacted of the new monarch a pledge that he would not give admission to the Lutheran faith into Denmark; but the Danish Bible was every day rendering the fulfillment of the pledge more difficult. In vain had the king promised "not to attack the dignity and privileges of the Ecclesiastical Estate," [7] when the Scriptures were, hour by hour, silently but powerfully undermining them.
A beginning was made by Georgius Johannis. He had drunk at the well of Wittemberg, and returning to his native town of Viborg, he began (1525) to spread the Reformed opinions. When the Bishop of Viborg opposed him, the king gave him letters of protection, which enabled him to set up a Protestant school in that city, [8] the first of all the Protestant institutions of Denmark, and which soon became famous for the success with which, under its founder, it diffused the light of truth and piety over the kingdom.
After Johannis came a yet more illustrious man, who has earned for himself the title of the "Reformer of Denmark," Johannis Taussanus. He was born in 1494, in the country of Fionia; his parents were peasants. From his earliest years the young Taussan discovered a quick genius and an intense thirst for knowledge, but the poverty of his parents did not permit them to give him a liberal education. Following the custom of his time he entered the Order of John the Baptist, or Jerusalem Monks, and took up his abode in the monastery of Antvorskoborg in Zealand.
He had not been long in the monastery when the assiduity and punctuality with which he performed his duties, and the singular blamelessness of his manners, drew upon him the eyes of the superior of the order, Eskildus. [9] His parts, he found, were equal to his virtues, and in the hope that he would become in time the ornament of the monastery, the superior adjudged to the young Taussan one of those bursaries which were in the gift of the order for young men of capacity who wished to prosecute their studies abroad. Taussan was told that, he might select what school or university he pleased, one only excepted, Wittemberg. That seminary was fatally poisoned; all who drank of its waters died, and thither he must on no account bend his course. But there were others whose waters no heresy had polluted: there were Louvain, and Cologne, and others, all unexceptionable in their orthodoxy. At any or all of these he might drink, but of the fountain in Saxony he must not approach it, nor taste it, lest he become anathema. His choice fell upon Cologne. He had been only a short while at that seat of learning when he became weary of the futility's and fables with which he was there entertained. He thirsted to engage in studies more solid, and to taste a doctrine more pure. It happened at that time that the writings of Luther were put into his hands. [10] In these he found what met the cravings of his soul. He longed to place himself at the feet of the Reformer. Many weary leagues separated Wittemberg from the banks of the Rhine, but that was not the only, nor indeed the main, difficulty he had to encounter. He would forfeit his pension, and incur the wrath of his superiors, should it be known that he had gone to drink at the interdicted spring. These risks, however, did not deter him; every day he loathed more and more the husks given him for food, and wished to exchange them for that bread by which alone he felt he could live. He set out for Witternberg; he beheld the face of the man through whom God had spoken to his heart when wandering in the wilderness of Scholasticism, and if the page of Luther had touched him, how much more his living voice!
Whether the young student's sojourn here was known in his native country we have no means of discovering; but in the summer of 1521, and about the time that Luther would be setting out for the Diet of Worms, we find Taussan returning to Denmark. His profiting at Wittemberg was very sufficiently attested by a most flattering mark of distinction which was bestowed on him on his way home. The University of Rostock conferred upon him the degree of Doctor in Theology, an honor which doubtless he valued chiefly because it admitted him to the privilege of teaching to others what himself had learned with joy of heart at the feet of the Reformers. [11]
The monastery at whose expense he had studied abroad had the first claim upon him; and some time elapsed before he could teach publicly in the university. He brought back to the monastery, which he again entered, the same beautiful genius and the same pure manners which had distinguished him before his departure; but the charm of these qualities was now heightened by the nameless grace which true piety gives to the character, "As a lamp in a sepulcher," says one, "so did his light shine in the midst of the darkness of that place." [12] It was not yet suspected by his brethren that they had a Lutheran among them under the cloak of their order, and Taussan took care not to put them upon the scent of the secret, nevertheless, he began betimes to correct the disorders and enlighten the ignorance of his fellow-monks evils which he now saw had their origin not so much in the vices of the men as in the perversity of the institution.
He would draw them to the Word of God, and opening to them in plain language its true meaning, he would show them how far and fatally Rome had strayed from this Holy Rule. At the Easter of 1524
he preached a sermon setting forth the insufficiency of good works, and the need of an imputed righteousness in order to the sinner's justification. "All the blind supporters of the Pontifical superstition," says the historian, "were in arms against him." [13] The disguise was now dropped.
There was one man whose wrath the sermon of the young monk had specially roused, the prior of the convent, Eskildus, a bigoted upholder of the ancient religion, and the person who had sent Taussan abroad, whence he had brought back the doctrine, the preaching of which had converted his former friend into his bitter enemy.
That he might not corrupt the monks, or bring on the monastery of Antvorskoborg, which had preserved till this hour its good name untarnished, the terrible suspicion of heresy, the prior formed the resolution of transferring Taussan to the convent of Viborg, where a strict watch would be kept upon him, and he would have fewer opportunities of proselytizing under the rigorous surveillance which Prior Petri Jani was known to exercise over those committed to his care. The event, however, turned out quite otherwise. Shut up in his cell, Taussan communicated with the inmates of the convent through the bars of his window. In these conversations he dropped the seeds of truth into their minds, and the result was that two of the monks, named Erasmus and Theocarius, were converted to the truth. [14]
The horror-struck prior, foreseeing the perversion of his whole brotherhood should he retain this corrupter a day longer in the monastery, again drove Taussan forth. If the prior saved his convent by this step, he lost the city of Viborg, for it so happened that about that time a rescript (1526) of King Frederick was issued, commanding that no one should offer molestation to any teacher of the new doctrine, and Taussan thus, though expelled, found himself protected from insult and persecution, whether from the prior or from the magistrates of Viborg. By a marvelous providence, he had been suddenly transferred from the monastery to the city, from the cell to the vineyard of the Lord; from a little auditory, gathered by stealth at his grated window, to the open assemblies of the citizens. He began to preach. The citizens of Viborg heard with joy the Gospel from his mouth. The churches of the city were opened to Taussan, and the crowds that flocked to bear him soon filled them to overflowing. [15]
It was now the bishop's turn to be alarmed. The prior in extinguishing the fire in his convent had but carried the conflagration into the city; gladly would he have seen Taussan again shut up in the monastery, but that was impossible. The captive had escaped, or rather had been driven out, and was not to be lured back; the conflagration had been kindled, and could not now be extinguished. What was to be done? The bishop, Georgius Friis, had no preachers at his command, but he had soldiers, and he resolved to put down these assemblies of worshippers by arms. The zeal of the citizens for the Gospel, however, and their resolution to maintain its preacher, rendered the bishop's efforts abortive. They bade defiance to his troops. They posted guards around the churches, they defended the open squares by drawing chains across them, and they went to sermon with arms in their hands. At length there came another intimation of the royal will, commanding the disaffected party to desist from these violent proceedings, and giving the citizens of Viborg full liberty to attend on the preaching of the Gospel. [16]
Foiled in his own city and diocese, the Bishop of Viborg now took measures for extending the war over the kingdom. The expulsion of Taussan from the convent had set the city in flames; but the bishop had failed to learn the lesson taught by the incident, and so, without intending it, he laid the train for setting the whole country on fire. He convoked the three other bishops of Fionia (Jutland), the most ancient and largest province of Denmark, and, having addressed them on the emergency that had arisen, the bishops unanimously agreed to leave no stone unturned to expel Lutheranism from Denmark. Mistrusting their own skill and strength, however, for the accomplishment of this task, they east their eyes around, and fixed on two champions who, they thought, would be able to combat the hydra which had invaded their land. These were Doctors Eck and Cochlaeus. The four bishops, Ivarus Munck, Stiggo Krumpen, Avo Bilde, and Georgius Friis, addressed a joint letter, which they sent by an honorable messenger, Henry Geerkens, to Dr. Eck, entreating him to come and take up his abode for one or more years in Jutland, in order that by preaching, by public disputations, or by writing, he might silence the propagators of heresy, and rescue the ancient faith from the destruction that impended over it. Should this application be declined by Eck, Geerkens was empowered next to present it to Cochlaeus. [17] Neither flatteries nor promises were lacking which might induce these mighty men of war to renew, on Danish soil, the battles which they boasted having so often and so gloriously fought for Rome in other countries.
The letter of the four bishops, dated 14th of June, 1527, has been preserved; but the terms in which they give vent to their immense detestation of Lutheranism, and their equally immense admiration of the qualities of the man whom Providence had raised up to oppose it, are hardly translatable. Many of their phrases would have been quite new to Cicero. The epistle savored of Gothic rigor rather than Italian elegance.
The eccentricities of their pen will be easily pardoned, however, if we reflect how much the portentous apparition of Lutheranism had disturbed their imaginations. They make allusion to it as that "Phlegethonian plague," that "cruel and virulent pestilence," [18] the "black contagion" of which, "shed into the air,"
was "darkening great part of Christendom," and had made "their era a most unhappy one." Beginning by describing Lutheranism as a plague, they end by comparing it to a serpent; for they go on to denounce those "skulking and impious Lutheran dogmatizers," who, "fearing neither the authority of royal diets nor the terrors of a prison," now "creeping stealthily," now "darting suddenly out of their holes like serpents," are diffusing among "the simple and unlearned flock," their "desperate insanity," bred of "controversial studies." [19]
From Lutheranism the four bishops turn to Dr. Eck. Their pen loses none of its cunning when they come to recount his great qualities. If Lutheranism was the plague that was darkening the earth, Eck was the sun destined to enlighten it. If Lutheranism was the serpent whose deadly virus was infecting mankind, Eck was the Hercules born to slay the monster. "To thee," said the bishops, casting themselves at his feet, "thou most eloquent of men in Divine Scripture, and who excellest in all kinds of learning, we bring the wishes of our Estates. They seek to draw to their own country the man who, by his gravity, his faith, his constancy, his prudence, his firm mind, is able to bring back those who have been misled by perverse and heretical teachers." Not that they thought they could add to the fame of one already possessed of "imperishable renown, and a glory that will last throughout the ages;" "a man to whom nothing in Divine literature is obscure, nothing unknown;" but they urged the greatness of their need and the glory of the service, greater than any ever undertaken by the philosophers and conquerors of old, the deliverance even of Christianity, menaced with extinction in the rich and populous kingdoms of Denmark, Sweden, and Norway. They go on to cite the great deeds of Curtius and Scipio Africanus, and other heroes of ancient story, and trust that the man they address will show not less devotion for the Christian commonwealth than these did for the Roman republic. Their hope lay in him alone "in his unrivalled eloquence, in his profound penetration, in his Divine understanding." In saving three kingdoms from the pestilence of Luther, he would win a higher glory and taste a sweeter pleasure than did those men who had saved the republic. [20]
This, and a great deal more to the same effect, was enough, one would have thought, to have tempted Dr. Eck to leave his quiet retreat, and once more measure swords with the champions of the new faith. But the doctor had grown wary. Recent encounters had thinned his laurels, and what remained he was not disposed to throw away in impossible enterprises, he was flattered by the embassy, doubtless, but not gained by it. He left the Cimbrian bishops to fight the battle as best they could.

ING Bank has agreed to pay a $619 million penalty for moving billions of dollars through the U.S. financial system at the behest of Cuban and Iranian clients, acts that violated economic sanctions.
In addition, the Dutch bank admitted to falsifying the records of New York financial institutions, according to the Manhattan District Attorney, who was joined by the Department of Justice in announcing Tuesday's settlement.
WOW.. but they knew the price for violating the sanctions..They prolly wont do it again..
Yea, don't bend to the will if zionist politicians, or else we will starve your country....
Shut up you idiot.
People who say things like this are the ones who make me understand when George W. Bush said "Believe be, it'd be a lot easier if I was a dictator."
you are ignorant as all hell.
Raul Castro a Zionist? Seems perfectly reasonable to anyone who has just eaten about a dozen hits of Blotter Acid! Perhaps Himmler, Joseph Goebbels and the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem were Zionists too? It appears the the mental capacity of people who hate Jews has declined dramatically since 1945. Perhaps we shall soon all have to pay to provide them with anti-psychotic medication? Perhaps someone has been spiking the punch-bowls at White-Supremacist Rallies with LSD? Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, B.A., J.D., S.P.J.
Hmm, depending on the profit made vs the fine, they may damn well do it again.

A recent Forrester Research report highlighted the security risks of connected healthcare devices and some of the implications of lax policies of manufacturers and care providers. This brings to mind for me all kinds of doomsday scenarios so I want to highlight some of the best practices in the report. These apply to the healthcare industry and other businesses.
Internet of Things
Part of the allure of the internet of things (IoT) is that many devices can be connected, including medical devices. In a recent article, author Yash Mehta highlighted some connected and potentially connected devices. On the list are monitoring devices which allow patients to be at home instead of a hospital. He also mentions companies that are developing edible IoT "smart" pills that will help monitor health issues and medication. This is an area where I would want the tightest security.
Steps for Security Planning
Start from the inside when thinking about security. Is everyone in your organization following best practices? Are you requiring passwords be changed regularly? Is everyone following this requirement or have they developed a workaround? Are there any shared accounts with a shared password? One of the biggest security holes has to do with social engineering. A hacker will pretend to be someone trustworthy to secure passwords or entrance into secure systems, then launch a widespread attack. Make sure everyone in your organization is educated and prepared for such an attempt.
Verify that the new devices have security built in from the manufacturer. This applies to health care IoT and other connected devices. It is hard to build security with no foundation. Push manufacturers to install a minimum level of threat protection in every device.
It is necessary to separate device information from actual customer details. In the case of health care, that means storing data collected from the connected device in a separate data structure than the patient data. In a retail establishment this means storing credit card information away from personally identifiable information such as customer name and address. The two can be linked via a separate ID but it should be difficult for a hacker to connect the two sources of information.
It is exciting to think of all of the possibilities with IoT devices but it is sobering to contemplate the security risks. All of us must consider and mitigate the risks, either as consumers or as part of an IT team building the tightest security possible. IoT devices are coming. Are you ready?

Harvard Law School Makes Online Zero-L Course Free for All U.S. Law Schools Due to Coronavirus
For Kennedy School Fellows, Epstein-Linked Donors Present a Moral Dilemma
Tenants Grapple with High Rents and Local Turnover at Asana-Owned Properties
In April, Theft Surged as Cambridge Residents Stayed at Home
The History of Harvard's Commencement, Explained
The AMC Harvard Square Theater, which closed its doors on July 8, has been purchased by Cambridge real estate firm Carpenter & Company, Inc. for $6.5 million.
President and Chief Operating Officer Richard L. Friedman said that the property was attractive to Carpenter and Company because of its size and location.
"It's a third of an acre, if you can believe that, in the middle of Harvard Square," Friedman said. "Since we've been doing business in Harvard Square for thirty-something years it seemed like a good thing to buy."
Friedman also noted that the property comes with a disadvantage; namely, the 150 feet of blank wall space that it presents to the public. However, Friedman said that Carpenter and Company's experience in working with non-traditional spaces would enable it to solve this problem.
"We are very experienced at adaptive reuse," Friedman said. "We bring to this a capacity to look at things differently than most people."
Carpenter & Company is known for its conversion of the Charles Street Jail into the Liberty Hotel, which opened in 2007.
According to Friedman, Carpenter & Company does not currently have a plan for a property, but has assembled a team of architects, engineers, and lawyers to determine what would be best. The team expects to reach a decision in two to three months.
"We're very enthusiastic about the potential of this property," Friedman said. "It's a good chance to revitalize that part of Harvard Square."
According to Denise A. Jillson, executive director of the Harvard Square Business Association, Carpenter & Company has been a valuable member of the Harvard Square Business Association. The firm developed and currently owns the Charles Square Hotel.
"They're good stewards of Harvard Square," Jillson said. "They're very thoughtful in their real estate development vision."
She also noted that the AMC Harvard Square Theater was not a member of HSBA, which she said could have hurt their business.
"We were never able to cross-promote or market with them," Jillson said. "We would hope that anyone coming in with such an iconic location would be a significant partner with us so that we could help them and cross-promote with other events."

Panama Canal
Ferdinand de Lesseps, who played a large role in building the Suez Canal in 1869 (Jones), was the director of the Compagnie Universelle Du Canal Interoceanique de Panama ("Historical Overview"). At first De Lesseps seemed to be "the perfect choice for the Panama task." Though as time went on De Lesseps was found to be "anything but the ideal" (Dolan). As soon as de Lesseps' company took over the canal it was doomed (Jones). De Lesseps was a 74-year-old man who was stubborn, vain, and very opinionated (Considine). Because of his experience with the Suez waterway, De Lesseps thought he was smarter than all the engineers beneath his command (Dolan). De Lesseps overrode all opposition of his sea-level canal due to his very popular reputation. He was sold on the idea of a sea-level canal and would not listen to the ideas of others such as French engineer, Adolphe Godin de Lepinary. De Lepinary's idea was to create two large lakes on either side of the mountains. In order to do this they would have to dam the Chagres River on the Atlantic side and the Rio Grande River on the pacific side (Considine).
Although as time went on more than just a poor director held back the finalization of the canal.
Disease, death, and rough terrain slowed down the completion of the canal. "The Terrain at the Isthmus was something they had never experienced and had not put a serious study of it, a very grave error" ("Panama Canal Connects"). Mosquitoes were responsible for many deaths. Illnesses such as yellow fever and malaria made "many of the work forces go to the hospitals or in some cases die" ("Panama Canal"). Mosquitoes carried the diseases and when a person got bit he would give a disease to the mosquito and the mosquito would pass it on to the next victim ("Historical Overview"). "The rocky ground of the formerly volcanic area proved to be too much for the French steam shovels and dredges" (Jones), and only when Philippe Bunau-Varilla suggested a plan for dynamiting the rocks underwater and digging up the pieces was there any room for headway (Jones).
Besides poor leadership by De Lesseps and poor working conditions the French company faced other problems. From the start almost everyone thought of the Panama Canal as "the impossible task." The French did not have the correct equipment and tools. In many ways the French were not ready to take on such a large task.
The French had to improvise in Panama and they had to do it under pressure. Everything had to be learned by trial and error, and many errors were committed. The experience of Suez was no use here and the only advantage now was the distance. Everything else was immensely difficult. The task at Panama was a nightmare compared to what they had to do in Suez. ("Actual digging")
Therefore, financial support was limited. "In 1889, de Lesseps' company was liquidated in order to pay back investors and banks" (Jones) from which the company had borrowed, De Lesseps' company went bankrupt after suffering losses totaling $325 million and stock prices falling ("Panama Canal"). The appraisal of the company's belongings included: equipment, maps, and the value of the land already excavated ("Historical Overview"). After his company went bankrupt, Lesseps left the Panama Canal to finish his last few years of his already aged life elsewhere ("Actual digging"). Still, much of the credit of the canal belongs to de Lesseps who convinced...

2019 Durango Trailer Hitch - The Durango carries over into 2019 mostly unchanged, however Dodge are offering a range of new choices for this year including a 825-watt 19-speaker Harman/Kardon speakers, high performance Brembo brakes for the SRT and a blind-spot monitoring system with rear cross traffic alert, which can be acquired on any trim level. The 2019 Dodge Durango is set to obtain a few updates both inside and out. For now, we've confirmed that the inbound auto shares an identical platform with the Grand Cherokee, although it would bear some visual deviations. Big visual modifications are evident at the front. Nevertheless, these changes are rather smaller with minor tweaks only put on specific areas.
When it comes to dimensions, the 2019 Dodge Durango measures 201.2 inches long, 77.1 inches wide, and 71.9 inches high. It features a wheelbase of about 119.8 inches. Also, it'll introduce updated bumpers, restyled grille as well as tuned lighting, including the rear lights. The trunk lamps resemble that of the incumbent model but will receive LED technology that sets the difference. Plenty of options are coming for the newest 2019 Dodge Durango. And others, the organization introduces a few new paintjobs. New shades of green, blue and grey will fit perfectly with larger wheels from higher trim levels. Across these versions, we will have a way to find numerous unique features and upgrades. Customizing the Durango is like a gaming – each trim has special parts that you won't have the ability to use on other levels.
2019 Durango Interior
Speaking of the interior , the Dodge plots on introducing a fresh infotainment system comprising updated voice control function. The most common safety equipment and toys will allegedly become available. These encompass the Bluetooth, Blind Spot Monitoring and Smartphone Integration, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. You can even expect Anti-collision warning and Rearview camera in all trims. If we take independent of the infotainment, we will see 2019 Durango very functional. It's spacious for passengers while leaving enough space for third row option or a huge cargo area. With it, the crossover may well be more competitive in this segment with Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot. optional packages should come with integrated trailer brake for better convenience and balance.
Lifting Dodge Durango with Lift Kit
Many buyers of previous editions of SUV asked how to lift Dodge Durango. The crossover shared lift kit having its sibling, Dodge Dakota in 1998 and 1999. With your features, this vehicle could use 33-inch tires. An identical package will undoubtedly be available for 2019 Dodge Durango. Obviously, buyers will need to seek out new rims and extend shocks.
2019 Dodge Durango MoPar Accessories At the most recent auto show in Chicago, MoPar presented a lot of accessories for the existing Durango. Obviously, the upcoming model will even take advantage of it. The 2019 Dodge Durango may get performance 4-inch exhaust tips made from stainless steel. However, only SRT and R/T version are entitled to tuning. Lowering springs makes a ride lower for approximately 0.6 inches. With it, Durango will boost overall agility, even for SRT version. When we arrived at the styling, we will see dual stripe throughout the vehicle's hood, roof, and tail. Buyers can have a choice of five colors.
2019 Durango Pursuit
The past but not minimal important model will undoubtedly be Pursuit SUV. Police force will put it to use for chases. With performance 2019 Dodge Durango could possibly offer, we give small chances to criminals to escape. Obviously, the beds base model is heavily upgraded to serve police officers. Exterior updates include parts which will boost performance and durability. Also, new suspension pack improves stability, which is really a crucial part during pursuits. The police are receiving just a Pentastar V-6, while the bigger V-8 from SRT can be acquired with Charger. It can be a the main police squad now. AWD, an eight-speed automatic transmission with the two-speed transfer case and great off-road capability are highlights with this SUV.
2019 Durango GT
The FCA does not stop here. While we are judging about the better model, they prepare another one. It is really a Durango GT. Nevertheless, based on the first images, this version will be much like the SRT. At least exterior. Well, we could say it because of 20-inch wheels and design of the hood. Also, you will find rumors this version will be one of the very most acoustic in the lineup, with an 18-speaker audio system. On one other hand, the Durango GT is not going to borrow big drivetrain from SRT. The Pentastar unit will deliver enough power with this trim level.
2019 Durango Towing Capacity
Towing capacity of the newest Dodge Durango depends on models buyers choose. We feel that entry-level model can keep its rating of around 6,200 pounds. This number is the same for AWD and RWD configurations. Boost includes the R/T model. The 5.7-liter V-8 unit raises the number to 7,500 pounds with 2WD. The AWD model can tow 200 pounds less. Once again, the SRT version is especially others in this segment. Its towing capacity will go up in 2019. This beast will undoubtedly be on par with some trucks with the ability to tow 9,000 lbs.
2019 Dodge Durango Engine Specs
The term around has it that the 2019 Dodge Durango continues with the same two engine options we've seen on the company's new releases. The automaker will present a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine which will power the fundamental model. The supposed motor flaunts a maximum output of 293 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. It includes the eight-speed automatic transmission. An optional motor is available in the shape of a sizable 5.7-liter Hemi unit. It has whatever it takes to spit out up to 360 horses and 390 lb-ft of torque. The past one and powerful comes with a 6.4-liter V8 engine that produces 475 horsepower. The EPA city/highway fuel economy with this model is just about 13/19 mpg. The engine is available in a set with an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
Besides the SRT, new 2019 Dodge Durango will be in a number of other trim levels. Definitely, fans of the SUV might find no match to SRT. But, the upcoming season could bring the lighter version, the RT model. It absolutely was the flagship crossover with the output of 360 hp. Now, its position holds the Durango SRT. In 2017 we're able to also see a particular edition of the SUV. Next season could recreate the 2019 Dodge Durango Citadel. This model may be the reaction to Jeep Grand Cherokee.
So, let's conclude. If you are the performance-thirsty driver, then SRT is a design for you. If you are limited with the budget, then a number of the standard trim levels will undoubtedly be enough to feel all advantages of Dodge vehicle. Finally, if you want a cozy interior and strong appearance in combination with high outputs and still affordable price , Citadel or R/T will undoubtedly be good solutions.
2019 Durango SRT Hellcat
The surface of the class model could be the 2019 Dodge Durango SRT. This version will undoubtedly be different in many ways, so some ponder over it as a separated model. It's not about the performance-boosted engine. The looks is following high outputs with aggressive styling. So, we will see unique bumper, skid plates, and buttocks with this SUV. The engine that powers this beast is really a 6.4-liter unit ready to crunch 475 horses and 470 lb-ft of torque. Another highlight is really a low air intake, and some fans hope that 2019 Durango SRT will certainly match the performance of Toyota Rubicon Tail.
2019 Durango Citadel Platinum
The 2019 Dodge Durango Citadel Anodized Platinum may be the special version of the upcoming SUV. It won't function as the hot performer as its SRT sibling. But, this version will add more luxurious impression to all or any occupants in the cabin. The highlight is 48 cubic-feet of space behind the trunk row. Well, the Citadel is employing a smaller displacement, therefore it won't have the ability to tow as the best Durango in the lineup. But 7,200 pounds of towing capacity will undoubtedly be enough for plenty of equipment.
2019 Durango Release Date and Price
In line with the information we've catered so far, the 2019 Dodge Durango can make a formal debut at the New York Auto Show in the second half next year. It probably will hit the auto showrooms around July next year. The Dodge hasn't said a thing regarding the pricing details of the next SUV.
However, we could make our judgments on the basis of the current base edition. The incumbent Dodge Durango model sells at $32,000. But given the updated tech features and inflation, we expect the automaker to raise the price only a little bit. Therefore, the next generation Dodge Durango might have its value in the region of $33,000 to $34,000 for the beds base trims.
