Author Quotes
Who he was that piled these stones, and with the mossy sod first covered, and here taught this aged tree with its dark arms to form a circling bower, i well remember. ? he was one who owned no common soul. In youth by science nursed. And led by nature into a wild scene of lofty hopes, he to the world went forth a favoured being, knowing no desire which genius did not hallow; 'gainst the taint of dissolute tongues, and jealousy, and hate, and scorn,? against all enemies prepared, all but neglect. The world, for so it thought, owed him no service; wherefore he at once with indignation turned himself away, and with the food of pride sustained his soul in solitude.
Without Thee what is all the morning's wealth? Come, blessed barrier between day and day, dear mother of fresh thoughts and joyous health!
Who is the happy Warrior? Who is he that every man in arms should wish to be?
Worse than idle is compassion if it ends in tears and sighs.
Who swerves from innocence, who makes divorce of that serene companion, a good name, recovers not his loss; but walks with shame, with doubt, with fear, and haply with remorse.
Write to me frequently & the longest letters possible; never mind whether you have facts or no to communicate; fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.
Who, doomed to go in company with Pain And Fear and Bloodshed,-miserable train!- Turns his necessity to glorious gain.
Written in Early Spring I heard a thousand blended notes While in a grove I sate reclined, In that sweet mood when pleasant thoughts Bring sad thoughts to the mind. To her fair works did Nature link The human soul that through me ran; And much it grieved my heart to think What Man has made of Man.
Whom neither shape of danger can dismay, nor thought of tender happiness betray.
Wrongs unredressed, or insults unavenged.
Whatever is foretold by God will be done by man; but nothing will be done by man because it is foretold by God.
Why art thou silent! Is thy love a plant of such weak fibre that the treacherous air of absence withers what was once so fair?
Yet sometimes, when the secret cup of still and serious thought went round, it seemed as if he drank it up, he felt with spirit so profound.
When a damp fell round the path of Milton, in his hand the thing became a trumpet; whence he blew soul-animating strains - alas, too few!
Why do not words and kiss, and solemn pledge, And nature that is kind in woman's breast, And reason that in man is wise and good, And fear of Him who is a righteous Judge - Why do not these prevail for human life, To keep two hearts together, that be.
Yet tears to human suffering are due; and mortal hopes defeated and o'erthrown are mourned by man, and not by man alone.
When from our better selves we have too long been parted by the hurrying world, and droop, sick of its business, of its pleasures tired, how gracious, how benign, is Solitude.
Wild is the music of the autumnal wind among the faded woods.
Yet was Rob Roy as wise as brave; forgive me if the phrase be strong;? a Poet worthy of Rob Roy must scorn a timid song.
When his veering gait And every motion of his starry train Seem governed by a strain Of music, audible to him alone.
Will no one tell me what she sings? Perhaps the plaintive numbers flow for old, unhappy, far-off things and battles long ago.
Yon foaming flood seems motionless as ice; Its dizzy turbulence eludes the eye, Frozen by distance.
Where are your books? - that light bequeathed to beings else forlorn and blind! Up! up! and drink the spirit breathed from dead men to their kind.
Wisdom and spirit of the Universe! Thou soul is the eternity of thought! That giv'st to forms and images a breath and everlasting motion! Not in vain by day or star-light thus from by first dawn of childhood didst thou intertwine for me the passions that build up our human soul, not with the mean and vulgar works of man, but with high objects, with enduring things, with life and nature, purifying thus the elements of feeling and of thought, and sanctifying, by such discipline both pain and fear, until we recognize a grandeur in the beatings of the heart.
Where is it now, the glory and the dream?

"We wished upon a shining star and twinkle twinkle here you are!"
It was just yesterday we celebrated his 1st birthday with 'twinkle twinkle little star' birthday party theme, and today he is singing the poem himself out load and making silly faces while pointing up in the sky to stars.
The joy of watching children grow. As they grow older, their exploits become bolder. Like most kids, my son is ever so interested in singing and dancing. Most of our afternoons are spent on the patio where I would be singing, and he putting up a little performance for me.
My son who is now 28 months is actively participating and singing the poems he loves. This craft/activity was done some time ago when he was still babbling, and I would guess most of his words. It was getting frustrating for him when I would not understand the poem he wanted me to sing along. So we came up with these singing craft sticks.
Writing the poem on each and making a small picture to match made us both happy. We both understood each other. He relates to the picture and me to words.
Here is how you make the singing sticks.
Materials Needed
- wide craft sticks
- permanent markers
- 1 small plastic cup or container
- Write the name of each song or rhyme on the appropriate stick.
- Draw a picture which relates to the song. (If your kid is old enough let him do the drwing which you can write on the back of the stick. This sparks creativity and ownership)
- Place all the sticks in a plastic cup or container.
Tip: These sticks serves as great story telling tools. (ofcourse spontaneous)
Enjoy and tell me in comments what rhymes/songs are yours and your little ones fav.

Review #688 | /r/Gin Review #3 – Joseph Magnus Unity Gin
The Schtick: This is a gin released by Joseph A Magnus in the tri-state area.
Distiller: Joseph A Magnus
Bottler: Joseph A Magnus
Age: N/A
Source: Bottle, Split
Nose: Very light, and effervescent. Citrus, white pepper, coriander and a strange note, almost like fennel. Overall, its more floral than fruity, with subdued juniper. Definitely not classic dry style.
Taste: Medium mouth feel. Faintly bitter, with some subdued heat. Super floral here as the nose would have suggested. Waxy fruits here, white pepper and a nice herbal tone.
Finish: Short and super light. Very effervescent here also.
Overall: Overall, this wasn't my favorite neat, but it stood up very well in a citrus based gin cocktail.
Thanks for reading!

In what has been a common occurrence this year, Metro Transit will once again shut down a portion of the Blue and Green light-rail lines in Minneapolis this weekend, but the 14- hour maintenance-related service interruption should be the last one for a while, a transit agency spokesman said.
From 10 p.m. Friday until noon Saturday, Blue Line trains will not run between Franklin Avenue Station and Target Field. Green Line trains will not run between Stadium Village at the University of Minnesota and Target Field. Buses will fill in while trains are down to allow riders to complete their trips. Trains will run as normal elsewhere on both lines.
Metro Transit has spent several months upgrading the signal system used to direct trains onto the proper tracks in downtown Minneapolis. This weekend Metro Transit will give the system a test run, so trains will be rolling without riders from Friday night to midday Saturday.
"We can't have customers on in case we have to stop for some reason," said spokesman Drew Kerr.
Light-rail riders have endured several disruptions in 2017 as Metro Transit has replaced sections of tracks, upgraded switches and repaired concrete and overhead wires. The longest was an 11-day shutdown in June when the agency put in two new crossovers at Hennepin Avenue and Park Avenue. Crossovers allow trains to move from one track to another.
Recent shutdowns, such as last weekend's - were necessary to allow crews to pull underground wires through and connect them to the signal system that is tied to the new crossovers and point train operators in the right direction. In short the signals are like traffic lights, Kerr said.
This year's upgrades were planned long before Metro Transit knew the Super Bowl was coming to Minneapolis, Kerr said. It's more of a fact that the line through downtown Minneapolis is 13 years old.
"The Blue Line is aging and with that comes maintenance on an ongoing basis," Kerr said. "It's to maintain the integrity of the system."
No major upgrades are planned for 2018 so riders should not see as many disruptions as they have this summer and fall. Hooray.

ORLANDO — I'm a new Floridian. I just moved here in May, but I've always been a fan of the arts, especially performing arts. It's exciting for me to see all that Orlando has to offer, especially this upcoming season.
I haven't had the chance to see Hamilton, so I was excited to hear the touring Broadway production is making a stop in Orlando early next year. I'm eager to see what all of the hype is about and to witness a musical that has broken down boundaries and made history. The touring production plays Jan. 22- Feb. 10 at Orlando's Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts. On-sale date and ticket prices had not been announced at press time. Keep checking drphillipscenter.org for details.
Elton John: Farewell Yellow Brick Road
Music legend Elton John is on his last tour. I'm not old enough to remember the time when Elton John was just getting popular, but I've always looked up to the man and love his music. He's performing at Orlando's Amway Center on Tuesday, Nov. 27. Resale tickets available starting around $200 each (with some topping $1,000).
Michael Meyers is back with a vengeance this October in the newest "Halloween" movie. Although it's the 11th film in the series, this one acts as a direct sequel to the original 1978 movie. If the 2-minute trailer caused me to get goose bumps, I can only imagine what the 109-minute feature will be like. "Halloween" is expected in theaters Oct. 19.

I finally broke out of my "next week, next week" procrastination mode and signed up for Mandarin Chinese classes. I've known about my move to Shanghai since November 2017, and kept telling myself I'll sign up for classes "next week". Here I am in July 2018 and, well, I'm in my first week of italki classes.
And looking back at studying Korean – I'm not fluent in Korean, but I'm alright and according to the Korean language board, have the equivalent of TOPIK 5. I don't believe in those charts about x hours required, because:
They say that for Korean, that takes around 2,000 hours of study. I took a grand total of 380 hours of Korean classes. Levels 2, 3, 4 were 100 hours each. Level 5 was 50 hours. Each class hour was actually 50 minutes of class time, followed by a 10 minute break. And I only attended 80% of my classes because that's what the minimum attendance requirement was. It's hard to do a Monday-Friday 9-5, followed by classes from 9-6 on Saturday or Sunday. For Level 2, I had classes from 9-6 on both Saturday and Sunday, with an hourlong commute before and after!
… I attended 100% of my classes for Level 2, come to think of it.
I did a bit of homework and studying outside of class. Randomly chatting to coworkers in Korean. And living in Korea, but does that really count because I'm quite the house mouse?
I'm hoping the same works for Mandarin Chinese. The same words with slightly different pronunciations is throwing me off, though. I'm not sure if that makes it easier or harder.

Places Where You Can Commonly Find Stained Glass Panels and Windows
Today there many places that you can get stained glasses being used in construction. This is due to the fact that they are highly valued by human beings and also because they have proven to be very attractive to the human eye. They also have got other health benefits that are related to it. This is due to the fact that these windows cannot allow ultra violet rays of the sun to get in the building. But it is very common to find them in certain places and this has been adopted as a culture over the years.
It is very common to find them in churches. If you look at most churches today you will find out that their window panels are made from stained glasses. This is a practice that was adopted several years ago and it has become a tradition. If you visit any Catholic church or Anglican church all over the world today you will see their window panels. They get creative with these stained panels and even use that to make an art such as the cross and also join pieces of different colors to form a certain shape. A practical example is that of the images that are formed from the stained glasses that are of Mary the mother of Jesus and those of Jesus the son of God.
You will also commonly see these stained glasses in museums today. These stained glasses are being used in museums to help with making pieces of art that are very amazing and those that people can pay to come and see. An example of such a museum is the Sacred Art Museum that is located Brazil. This art Museum is one of the worlds best tourist destination art gallery that you can get to visit when to get a chance to go to Brazil as a tourist. You will get a chance to see all the creativity that is behind the art work with the stained glasses. It has been able also to offer many people an employment opportunity as workers in this field.
Today many homes have also employed the use of these stained glass windows. This is because they come in a variety of colors that one can get to choose from. Most of the time they are used in decorating the outdoor spaces that will help with lighting of the space. Most of the interior designers today are using these kinds of glasses to help in making a reflected kind of art inside the house when the sun is out. This works by the sun rays getting reflected on the glass and then end up lighting the room. These colors make one able to get the kind of reflections that you want.

Hi strangers. It's been a while since I've last posted. Sorry about that!
Sarah, of Fantastical Sharing of Recipes, hosts an event the last week of every year to highlight the recipes made during that year. I've had plans to participate in this for some time now but never managed to get the posts scheduled in time to share. Not this year!
We're starting off the week with the best appetizers and snacks, which are right up my alley. I could host appetizer parties once a month and be the happiest person ever. When going back through my recipes for this year I was surprised to find that I didn't share as many of them with you as I thought I did.
Nevertheless, here's a combination of my favorites and your favorites (based on pins and page views)!
Funnily enough, we're having these meatballs on Wednesday. I love changing up the traditional ground beef style meatball and using another choice like chicken. These meatballs are light and pack a real punch of heat, hence the "firecracker" in the name.
I figured these would be a huge hit. How can you go wrong with pizza flavoring topped into individual meatloaves cooked in a muffin pan? Maybe a little large for an appetizer, but a great option to have a party where you have some hungry guests. These can easily be adapted to your specific tastes.

HÀ NỘI — An increase in the minimum wage moved a step closer yesterday after the National Wage Council agreed to increase basic salaries.
The committee confirmed they will look at a rise of more than 5 per cent compared to last year.
The raise is equal to an increase of VNĐ160,000-200,000 (US$6.8-8.6) each month per labourer.
It is believed to be the lowest increase of the regional minimum wage so far.
The increase will be submitted to the Government for final approval.
The increase of the regional minimum wage was 7.3 per cent in 2017, equal to an increase of VNĐ180,000-250,000($7.7-10.7) and 6.5 per cent in 2018, equal to an increase of VNĐ180,000-230,000 ($7.7-9.9).
The decision was made after the third meeting of the council held in northern Hải Phòng City yesterday and chaired by Deputy Minister of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs cum President of the National Wage Council Doãn Mậu Diệp.
Representatives from the Việt Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI), on behalf of employers and the Việt Nam General Confederation of Labour (VGCL), on behalf of employees, were also at the meeting.
They decided the monthly minimum wage for four different regions in Việt Nam to be Region I: VNĐ4.18 million (US$180); Region II: VNĐ3.71 million ($160); Region III: VNĐ3.25 million ($140) and Region IV:VNĐ 2.92 million ($126).
Region I covers urban Hà Nội and HCM City, II covers rural Hà Nội and HCM City along with urban Cần Thơ, Đà Nẵng and Hải Phòng cities, III applies to provincial cities and the districts of Bắc Ninh, Bắc Giang, Hải Dương and Vĩnh Phúc provinces and Regional IV takes care of the remaining localities.
Diệp said the increase was selected at 5.3 per cent after many discussions and was thought to be reasonable.
"It is the level that could cover a price slippage of 4 per cent each year and still ensure a small actual pay rise for labourers," he said.
Additionally, the level was also affordable for employers to pay, he added.
Mai Đức Chính, vice president of VGCL, also said the increase was acceptable.
Chính said the 2018 regional minimum wage actually met about 92-94 per cent of the minimum living standards.
However, if fully calculated, it was necessary to increase the regional minimum wage by 7 per cent each year to both offset inflation and ensure a steady actual pay rise for the labourers, he said.
The increase for 2019 was only 5.3 per cent, it meant the pressure of adjusting the regional minimum wage for 2020 would not be small, he said. — VNS

Authors: Dra. Elizabeth Reyna Rodríguez Pérez and Dr. David Castro Lugo
In Mexico, research has been carried out to determine the gender pay gap and have found that men receive higher remuneration than women, despite the fact that they have increased their educational years, experience and participation in the labor market. The motivation of this study is to know if the explosion of trade opening in the regions of Mexico has impacted the gender wage gaps from 2005 to 2015 and to explore if there are changes throughout the salary distribution? In which segment of the distribution are there more differences? What if these differences vary by region? The objective of research is to analyze the gender wage gap throughout the distribution in regions of Mexico. This applies to the methodology Melly (2005) Survey of Occupation and Employment (ENOE) 2005-2015. In Mexico, and its regions, women suffer the so-called sticky floor and glass ceiling, and there is, however, important differences depending on the region of the country analyzed

Wilton 25
We're proud to celebrate 25 of the most creative, dynamic, generous, and entrepreneurial individuals that make Wilton such a wonderful place to live.
The Wilton 25 Ceremony and Reception is May 2 at 6pm, click for more info and tickets.
Andy Schlesinger Four years ago Schlesinger started Wilton Rocks for Food, bringing local musicians together for an epic concert, all in the name of helping the raise money for local food banks. To date $280,000 has been raised with 100 percent of the funds going directly to Wilton Food Pantry and the Connecticut Food Bank. Nominator Donna Savage says: "Andy assembles 35 local musicians and schedules rehearsal time for everyone. He manages it all with a keen sense of detail while maintaining a consistent sense of humor!"
Carol Johnson has served as president of the Rotary Club, been president of the Chamber of Commerce (twice!), served on the board for the Riverbrook Regional YMCA, and volunteers with Community Steps. When asked why she volunteers so much, Johnson flashes her trademark smile and says, "Look at where we live and look at what we have, how could we not give back. I also think Wilton is a pretty special place."
Morgan Amarone Napier served as Miss Connecticut in 2011 and traveled 35,000 miles across the sate as a spokesperson for the American Cancer Society and Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. In 2012, she represented our state in the Miss America Pageant. Today, she serves as a board member for the American Cancer Society's Young Professionals Against Cancer.
Michael Crystal Former Wilton 25 honoree Susan Lauricella nominated Michael Crystal. "As a wine connoisseur, Michael runs wine tastings at Ancona's; purchases wine for special events at Wilton Library (such as the Summer Concert Series and others) and then actually attends the events to pour! He's a friendly and engaging face about town."
Savet Constantine Muraskin "Savet has worked nonstop for the PTA for many, many years," says nominator Deb Bucklan. "She always volunteers and works to keep everyone informed about school happenings, meetings, decisions, and votes. Because of Savet, events have volunteers and we all know about the budget and other important school decisions because of her effective and far-reaching communication.

About this Episode
Today's episode was the episode in which we discovered that it's generally not a good idea to cross Lorin. We also discussed the possibility of merch thanks to a strange message left for us on our company voicemail. Expressions of interest welcome on the issue of merch but let's not count our chickens.
And by the way Stew alienated the entire motorbiking community.
Then there's the bit where Stew plays the audio of Lorin not making any sense. It works out really well for him.
Thanks to our sponsor this week, the wonderful Lance Rock publicity.
Our technical producer is Stewart Thorn.
See you tomorrow with guest number two...

After four seasons in the NBA in the two largest cities in the United States, D'Angelo Russell is finally getting the recognition he deserves – in the fashion world.
The former Buckeye was given the hotly-contested title of the NBA's Most Stylish Player for the 2019 season by GQ magazine, beating out noted fashion-lovers Russell Westbrook, James Harden and last year's winner LeBron James.
Here's a look at some of Silk's looks from the past year from his Instagram page:
If that doesn't satisfy your thirst for fashion on this fine Monday, you can take a gander at the looks GQ deemed Russell's 10 best of the year.
Russell's boldness had no bounds this year.
To the layman like myself, Silk showed clear no line between legitimate, effortful fashion and just trolling by wearing whatever the hell he wanted, wherever the hell he wanted, whenever the hell he wanted to wear it.
From athletic pants tucked into Nike socks underneath a formal coat, to his boldly-patterned pants coupled with strong shoe game, to a literal moon-printed trench coat with oversized pants (again, tucked into socks), Russell dressed with a boldness and confidence I could only dream of (and frankly, could never afford anyway on a modest blogger's salary).
And to that, I have nothing but respect.
Russell took the crown in a 16-player tournament determined by a fan vote. He topped DeAndre Jordan in the first round before pulling the upset over No. 2 seed James Harden in the Elite Eight. He downed fellow cinderella Kelly Oubre Jr. in the Final Four to punch his ticket to the Finals, where he downed the defending champ LeBron James.
Now, we eagerly await how he will defend his title next year. My only wish is that he works in peacock feathers somewhere, because why the hell not?

Indoor succulent planting
31 Aug
In botany, succulent plants, also known as succulents or sometimes fat plants, are plants that have some parts that are more than normally thickened and fleshy, usually to retain water in arid climates or soil conditions.
Succulents always give a nice decorative touch to any home or garden. With their juicy leaves, fat stems, and thick roots, they form a vast and diverse group of plants, offering easy to care options for each household.
In addition, succulents look stunning planted alone or accommodated in such a way that looks like a small garden, because the color and foliage variation in succulent seems almost endless: green, blue, pink, red, yellow, white, purple, almost black and much more.
We leave you with a few ideas about succulent planting, so get your DIY skills on the go!
1. Wine bottle succulent planter – Fantastic way to upcycle wine bottles into these cute succulent planters. You'll need to cut wine bottle from side to fill soil in it. Small succulents and cacti are perfect for this.
2. DIY succulent bookend – Prop up your favorite reads with this easy-to-make mini garden. Succulents are easy to grow. They add a welcome pop of greenery to any book collection when planted in clear vases filled with pretty river stones.
3. Succulents in a DIY hanging tray – Make this easy hanging succulent planter with a tray or shallow pot, succulents, threads, and candles. To make it, just plant the succulents in a tray that has holes on sides to hang to make it easier. Hang the tray with the help of threads. You can also put some candles, burn those candles in the night to create an astonishing effect. Ensure you do not hang this in a windy spot.
4. DIY glass planter – Grow succulents in water glasses. Isn't it a good idea? you can place some stones or sand to have a special effect.
5. Vintage tea tin succulent planters – We love these! what a great way to make your old tea tins shine!
Next time we'll give you a few more ideas, agreed?
That's all for now Snug lovers!

The e-Commerce Directive (ECD) has been implemented in UK law and the retention of its provisions is vital. Of particular importance are the information requirements that mean digital sellers must let consumers know who they are, where they are located, and how they can be contacted.
It is the consumer confidence created by the information requirements under the ECD and other statutory protections such as cancellation rights and remedies for faulty goods and digital content that will help maintain the boom in online sales which has boosted the UK economy.
It is crucial for the well-being of UK e-commerce that these protections are maintained. There is longer-term risk that diverging from the EU's digital single market strategy will dent consumer confidence.
The ECD is not perfect: it would benefit from modernisation to spell out its application to modern situations, and extra provisions could be added.
The fact that – as the government has clarified – the UK will not be part of the EU's digital single market creates an opportunity to shape our e-commerce laws into a framework that best suits UK consumers and businesses. In particular, some of the ECD issues such as spam and e-privacy are better dealt with in the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003.
Meanwhile, it is probably the case that the spam and e-privacy provisions have been largely overtaken by the e-Privacy Directive so various provisions in the UK ECD regulations may not be a great loss.
Key Findings
The UK has been at the forefront of the development of e-commerce, especially in the European context. If our consumers and businesses are to continue to successfully utilise the internet, we need provisions that are in harmony with the key markets of the EU and the US (where similar provisions apply).
We are calling on the government to seek agreement with the EU on the mutual recognition of goods and standards to ensure a digital market that is as frictionless as possible. It is vital that the government provides clarity on the post-Brexit responsibilities and legal rules that will apply to importers of EU goods into the UK market, and vice versa.
CTSI believes that ease of access to the EU market for UK e-sellers and e-buyers is crucial, not only to promote business growth but also to maintain consumer choice. The UK is a European-leader on e-commerce and barriers to the EU market will threaten jobs and prosperity and worsen the consumer experience.
IN FOCUS: Crucial cooperation
Consumer confidence is key. In order for it to continue in e-Commerce it will be necessary for the UK to maintain appropriate, and reciprocal, cross-border enforcement powers after Brexit.
Ideally, the UK should retain the Consumer Protection Cooperation (CPC) model that allows the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) to tackle issues on behalf of UK and EU consumers through reciprocal enforcement. Without the CPC there is no guarantee that rogue practices affecting UK consumers – but originating from the EU – will be tackled effectively by the remaining 27.
It is crucial that specific powers are retained to investigate and enforce e-commerce breaches, including the power to close down rogue websites, the power to gather information about intermediaries, and explicit powers to undertake covert test purchases.
Finally, many UK e-retailers source goods from across the EU. Post-Brexit these acquisitions may mean the trader becomes an importer with all the various obligations that entails. This could be a serious burden on businesses and potentially a major burden on trading standards services.

David J. Stewart #fundie jesusisprecious.org
I did not write this article to criticize Bruce Marchiano. I sincerely do admire the guy. And I really love his role as Jesus in his films. My problem is that there are over one billion unsaved Roman Catholics in this world, and MILLIONS of them idolize Bruce Marchiano for starring as their favorite Bible character. Bruce admits that he is not a theologian, and I get that, but it doesn't require a degree from a theological seminary to see that the Catholic Church is of the Devil. Catholics teach and require keeping Seven Sacraments to get to Heaven, which is totally unbiblical. The word "sacrament" is not even found in the Word of God. What saith the Scripture? Ephesians 2:8-9, "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast."
If we don't let the light of the Gospel shine unto the world, then they won't see it, and cannot get saved. I know Bruce is not a theologian (in his own words; and that is okay), but for a guy with a ministry he is influencing millions of people, so he should at least give a clear Gospel presentation. Bruce's shallow plan of salvation appeals to unsaved Catholics, which means something is wrong with it! If the Gospel is presented properly, it will offend Roman Catholics, because it WILL EXCLUDE their damnable plan of works for salvation!!! I am sick and tired of career Christians—who make a living from singing or ministering—but the Gospel is hidden! I triple-dog dare you to show me even one mainstream Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) artist who gives a clear presentation of the Gospel on their ministry website. You cannot!!! Obviously they don't really care if their fans gets saved or not. The CCM industry rakes in over ONE BILLION dollars each year! Truly the love of money is the root of all evil.
I have made my point. Please do not allow the fraud of Roman Catholicism to take you to Hell. All the Popes are burning in Hell this moment. Tens of thousands of former Catholic priests are now burning in the fires of Hell, having died in their sins without Christ. Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith. God will not save anyone who is trying to be saved, He will only save those who are trusting to be saved. Religion is man trying to reach God through human effort, but Christianity is God trying to reach man by the sacrifice of His only begotten Son on the cross. If you are a truly born-again Christian, then don't you dare show any support for the Satanic Catholic religion! You ought to criticize it, refuting it for what it is, of the Devil.

Short-Term Forecast:
Sunny and cold today with highs only in the teens on the mountain and 20's at the base. Lighter winds expected. Partly cloudy with a few flakes possible Wednesday, and highs in the 20's.
Wednesday night into Thursday the next cold storm moves through. It could bring another 4-8 inches of fluffy powder to the mountain by Thursday night. It will also bring in more cold air keeping highs in the 20's into Friday as we clear out.
The Weekend:
For the weekend we should be partly sunny with a chance for scattered snow showers. Highs in the 20's on the upper mountain to 30's at the base.
Next week we could see 2 slightly stronger storms. One Monday-Tuesday and another Wednesday-Thursday. It's too early to look at a specific forecast but each could bring several more inches of snow or more to the mountain. Highs next week look to be in the 30's.

FAST FOOD (AD 2019): First Helping

FAST FOOD (AD 2019): First Helping
"If Jesus can be trusted to have said anything at all, he renounced violence…If Jesus did not reject any type of violence for any purpose, then we know nothing of him."
—Rev. John L. McKenzie, Preeminent Catholic Biblical Scholar Mid-Twentieth Century
The issue of whether the Nonviolent Jesus of the Gospels teaches by word and by deed a Way of Nonviolent Love of friends and enemies is settled. He does! All attempts today to justify violence and/or enmity from the life of Jesus or from the teachings of Jesus are devoid of spiritual and intellectual merit. That is not opinion, that is fact. A person or a nation of persons, a Christian or a Church of Christians may consider Jesus and His teaching of Nonviolent Love of friends and enemies unrealistic, stupid, naive, impracticable, unfeasible, fanciful and foolish, e.g., "love your enemies,"" put up the sword", "love one another as I have loved you," "do good to those who hate you," "turn the other cheek," "pray for those who persecute you", etc. So be it, if that is what a person or a group of persons think of Jesus' teachings. All I am saying is, "That's what the Man said!"

Choices, choices! Yep, it's a tough one for sure! To be honest, we love them all, and there's going to be a whole lot more speeding this way very soon, so make sure you watch this space. In the meantime, enjoy this taster!

Publisher details
A book about the writing of a book - watch Lee Child write one of his bestselling Jack Reacher thrillers. On September 1, 1994, Lee Child went out to buy the paper to start writing his first novel, in pencil. The result was Killing Floor, which introduced his hero Jack Reacher. Twenty years later, on September 1, 2014, he began writing Make Me, the twentieth novel in his number-one- bestselling Reacher series. Same day, same writer, same hero.The difference, this time, was that he had someone looking over his shoulder. Andy Martin, uber Reacher fan, Cambridge academic, expert on existentialism, and dedicated surfer, sat behind Lee Child in his office and watched him as he wrote. While Lee was writing his Reacher book, Andy was writing about the making of Make Me.Reacher Said Nothing is a book about a guy writing a book. An instant meta-book. It crosses genres, by bringing a high-level critical approach to a popular text, and gives a fascinating insight into the art of writing a thriller, showing the process in real time. It may well be the first of its kind.About the AuthorDr Andy Martin is a lecturer in French literature and philosophy at the University of Cambridge. He has written books about Napoleon, Brigitte Bardot, Sartre and Camus, and surfing. He has also written for The Times, the New York Times, the Independent and Prospect magazine.

You don't need to have your game completely done to know how it is going to behave. After validating the idea of the game through the MPV, you can also do a soft-launch.
Soft-launch means launching your games to a limited audience to gather information before doing the official and/or global launch. Usually game developers choose a specific country. Many choose Canada for having a similar profile than United States or choose their own country because of the proximity.
The most important metric in a soft-launch is retention. Some games stayed in soft-launch for more than a year before reaching the numbers desired by the team. It's also important to measure how the monetization of the game is doing to make sure that is worth the investment with the official launch.
Cupcake games are always launched first on Facebook as a soft-launch, because measuring the information on web is much faster than mobile. In mobile you need the user to update the game in his device, which won't always happen, as well as a longer review time. Updates on web are immediate and it is possible to have numbers the next day. We develop for mobile when the game reach the quality that the team desires. Nowadays we are doing this with Numbers of Gold, that was launched in the end of March on Facebook.

the directory listing works well on local directories.
Now I'd like to display a directoy listing which is located on another fileserver within the network. I tried to map it as a network drive, hoping it would be handled at a local directory. When doing so, there are no results and there is no error.
Any ideas?
I tried to add a virtual directory in IIS. Unfortunately, the directory listing is just skipping the virtual directory.
Any suggestions?

This book describes some recent trends in GCM research on different subject areas, both theoretical and applied. This includes tools and possibilities for further work through new techniques and modification of existing ones. A growth curve is an empirical model of the evolution of a quantity over time. Growth curves in longitudinal studies are used in disciplines including biology, statistics, population studies, economics, biological sciences, sociology, nano-biotechnology, and fluid mechanics. The volume includes original studies, theoretical findings and case studies from a wide range of applied work. This volume builds on presentations from a GCM workshop held at the Indian Statistical Institute, Giridih, January 18-19, 2014. This book follows the volume Advances in Growth Curve Models, published by Springer in 2013. The results have meaningful application in health care, prediction of crop yield, child nutrition, poverty measurements, estimation of growth rate, and other research areas.

Beat the odds
Stay on top of your resolutions
Beating the resolutions odds
In January's blog we gave you some tips to help make your resolutions stick. But if your willpower is weakening don't worry, you're not alone - 80% of New Year's resolutions fail by the second week of February. In other words, most people fall out of love with their good intentions before Valentine's Day.
But don't break up just yet! These tactics will help you refocus and get your resolution relationship back on track. Beat the odds and be one of the successful 20%!
Stay positive: Beating yourself up won't achieve anything, so focus on what you have achieved, not what you haven't. Write down 3 things that you accomplished and use them to re-inspire you.
Work out why you want to work out: First, think back to what made you want to get active in the first place. Do you want to get your pre-baby body back? Are you training for your first 5k, or even a spring marathon for charity? Has your doctor suggested you lower your cholesterol, or to manage an illness through exercise like Glynis at Andover pool? (Perhaps you just want to win £1000?!! – see our app challenge.)
Now find something that represents your goal – your favourite photo of yourself before kids, your race number or marathon sponsorship form, your doctor's referral letter – and put it somewhere you'll see every day to remind yourself why you're getting active.
Buddy up: Let's be honest, we've all skipped the odd workout when we didn't feel like it. But if you find you're making excuse after excuse not to get active, commit to exercising with a friend. Being accountable to someone will make you think twice about cancelling a session and will help you succeed in your fitness goals – it's also more fun!
Group exercise offers the same social and motivational benefits. There's a wide range of workout class options from low impact to the more intense, so there's something to suit everyone. There are also financial benefits to teaming up to get active – when members refer friends, both parties get rewarded! Contact your local Active Place to find out more and see what classes it offers.

Squire Cottage is an old farmhouse built half in stone and half in timber and render with a smattering of red brick! It sits at the top of a field looking down towards the River Redlake and the Dingle with its babbling brook and ancient wet woodland.
With superfast wi-
The cottage sleeps four people comfortably in two bedrooms; a cot and sofa bed are also available for extra family members. The front door opens onto one open space with a large inglenook fireplace complete with bread oven, dominating the 'living' end of the room. Here you can sit around the open fire telling stories, reading, listening to music or watching television. At the other end, there is a fully equipped kitchen with hand built oak units and a large refectory table. There is also a small cloakroom with lavatory and washbasin, the washing machine and room for wellies and boots.
Wooden stairs (mind your head and don't be distracted by the view through the window) lead up to a spacious landing and to one room with two single beds, the bathroom and the double bedroom with a magnificent chimneybreast.
The cottage keeps it's ancient authenticity and rural feel by retaining the old beams complete with redundant peg holes through which the children can spy on their parents! New oak flooring with rugs and mats add to the cosy and comfortable feel of the place; though watch your heads, some of the doorways are very low.
There is central heating and hot water provided by an oil-

At the ongoing Tokyo International Motor Show, Mercedes-Benz provides a glimpse into future mobility with a wide array of Asia premieres. With its Formula One hybrid technology, the Mercedes-AMG Project ONE show car stands for the "Future of Driving Performance".
At the other corner, the smart vision EQ fortwo presents an electric and autonomous solution for highly efficient and flexible local transportation, while the Concept EQA is the first all-electric EQ concept vehicle in the compact segment. And with pre-production models of the Mercedes-Benz GLC F-CELL, the brand with the three-pointed star is showcasing the world's first electric vehicle with fuel-cell and battery-electric drive.
Mercedes-AMG Project ONE : close to the Formula One World Champion
The Mercedes-AMG Project ONE, a two-seater super sports car, marks the first time that state-of-the-art, highly efficient Formula One hybrid technology is being brought from the racetrack to the road virtually one-to-one. The performance hybrid will deliver an anticipated output of more than 1000 hp and a top speed of more than 350 km/h. The high-performance plug-in drive comes directly from Formula One and comprises a highly integrated and intelligently networked combination of hybrid turbocharged internal combustion engine and a total of four electric motors.
smart vision EQ fortwo: urban mobility at the very highest level
Individuality, maximum flexibility and efficiency for local public transport – that's what the smart vision EQ fortwo stands for, thanks to its swarm intelligence and demand prediction. The self-driving concept vehicle picks up its passengers from their preferred location and is operated entirely by smartphone.
Making the journey to pick up a "hire car" a thing of the past. The interconnected vehicles are always on the road. Utilisation increases and, at the same time, the amount of traffic and the number of parking spaces required in urban areas are reduced. It is the first passenger vehicle presented by the Daimler Group to dispense entirely with a steering wheel and pedals. The smart vision EQ fortwo is the also first vehicle to fully represent the individual competences of the CASE strategy – Connected, Autonomous, Shared & Services and Electric.
Concept EQA: maximum fascination in a compact vehicle
The Concept EQA is the first all-electric EQ concept vehicle by Mercedes-Benz in the compact segment. Excellent ride and handling characteristics are provided by its permanent all-wheel drive and two electric motors, which have a system output that can be increased to more than 200 kW thanks to scalable battery components. In combination with the Mercedes-Benz intelligent operating strategy, the Concept EQA achieves a range of around 400 km, depending on the installed battery capacity. With a considerable reduction in seams and lines as well as the black-panel surface at the front end serving as a virtual grille, the vehicle exemplifies once more the systematic development of the brand's design language of sensual purity.
GLC F-CELL enters pre-production: a dual-electric heart
Mercedes-Benz is presenting pre-production models of the new Mercedes-Benz GLC F-CELL, marking the next milestone on the road to zero-emissions driving. Under the designation EQ Power, the latest electric model (destined for subsequent series production) from the Mercedes-Benz family is doubly electrifying.
As a world first, it is set to combine innovative fuel-cell and battery technology in the form of a plug-in hybrid: in addition to hydrogen, the all-electric variant of the popular SUV can be topped off with electricity. The intelligent interaction of battery and fuel cell as well as short refuelling times will make the GLC F-CELL an electric companion for everyday use and long-distance journeys. With 4.4 kg of hydrogen on board, the pre-production model produces sufficient energy for a range of up to 437 km in the NEDC. F-CELL drivers also benefit from a range of up to 49 km in the NEDC from the large lithium-ion battery. A power output of 147 kW delivers the combined pleasure of dynamic performance and zero-emissions driving.
