" thou shalt not put a stumbling block before the blind — lev 19 14 cursed is he that maketh the blind to wander out of his way deut 27 18 if he that put a stum bling block in the way of the physically blind is cursed what should be the pun ishment of him that does so to the morally blind i the one would cause his neigh bor but to fall upon the earth but he that puts liquor in the way of the drunkard causes him to stumble speedily to his grave and to hell oh sir how often has your liquor caused him that was blind ed by the love ofthe bowl to wander far from the path of uprightness do you say you do not sell ardent spirits to such men — you only sell it to those who can control themselves ? rut you send it off — you sell it to the retailer and then it is beyond your control you have made the serpent and sent it abroad ; you cannot now direct his fang nor extract his poison lt inevitably becomes a stumbling block to every drunkard that passes by that wa but is it any better to let the moderate drinker have it than the drunkard ? it is by moderate drinking that most men be come drunkards in selling your liquor to the moderate drinker you are learning him to become a drunkard and which is the worst to have a hand in making a good man bad or a bad man worse ? — which is the worst to put out the eyes of a man that can see a little or to put a stumbling block before him that is already blind ? these may be debateable ques tions but upon whichever side they are decided i fear would not be of much mo ment to you ; lor is not your liquor drank by both the sot and the moderate drinker ? li a scripture sense an offence is that which causes a man to err — to sin you certainly know that distilled spirits are an offence in this sense to many both in the church and out of it your blessed mas ter he whom i trust you wish to love and obey — has said " woe to that man by whom the offence comelh mat 18,7 now by whom else does the olfence of ardent spirits come but by the stiller ? — blame the drinker as you will you must admit that the olfence has come emphati cally by you now unless you can show that ardent spirits are no offence — that no one is caused to do wrong by it how can you extricate yourself from the woe pro nounced by your own master ? oh sir i really fear unless you cease to manufac ture offences christ will not own you for his disciple in the last day your most sincere friend s1m0x coldwater davie co much 1848 from the raleigh register soxs of temperance hall the ceremonies of the dedication of the new hall recently erected by the or der of the sons of temperance in this city came off on friday evening last and is spoken of in the highest terms we were not able to be present on this inter esting occasion but a friend who was has kindly furnished us with the subjoin ed account which we most cheerfully lay before our readers with the simple re mark that we are satisfied that the phil anthropic und benificent designs of the order is accomplishing though silently and unobtrusively great good in our com munity and deserves the fostering and sustaining hand of every friend of hu manity and good morals rut to the ac count mr gales : as i did not see you present at the interesting and appropriate cere monies ofthe dedication ofthe new sons of temperance hall on friday evening i have thought an account would prove acceptable to your readers and i must say that on no occasion nor any where have i ever seen " beauty unadorned so successfully and appropriately carried out as on this occasion xo mockeries of mysticism — no presumptuous assumptions of legendary authority marked the pro ceedings ; they were simple unaffected and eminently appropriate after the company had gathered the " sons clad in their beautiful though simple regalia made their appearance in the hall and the exercises were opened by the reading of a portion of the scripture and prayer by the chaplain the ceremonies of ded ication were then entered into by the d g w p and the responses from the va rious officers had truly a happy effect and the hall was dedicated to love purity and fidelity the motto of the order and to the promotion of '* temperance renevolence and brotherly love this being over henry w miller esq a member ofthe order was introduced to the assembly as the brother selected to deliver the dedicatory address to a community where his powers and his ge nius are so well and so favorably known as mr miller's are in north carolina it i.s unnecessary to say that this address was thrillingly eloquent and surpassingly beautiful the writer of this has repeat edly heard mr m hold vast audiences enchained by the force of his reasoning the power of his logic and captivating strains of his rhetoric and eloquence ; but we say in all candor that this effort will most favorably compare with any we ever heard him make w t e would fain endea vor to give you some idea of its tone and character — but satisfied as we are that were we to attempt it wc should greatly mar its beauty and do injustice to the speaker we are compelled to desist we are highly gratified to learn however that a call has been made by the division up on mr m for a copy of the address for publication we sincerely hope he will accede to the request as we believe its circulation throughout the state will be productive of great good not only to the order but to our citizens generally we trust therefore soon to see it in print we believe sir you will pardon us for adding a few words in behalf of the or der of the sons of temperance judging from the happy effect it had upon many in our city we are bound to admit it a good a lauable a praise-worthy institu tion from the high character of the morals and virtues it inculcates it re commends itself to the favorable consid eration ofthe wise the virtuous and the good every where its designs are pure ly benevolent unpretendingly exalted and religiously sacred to reclaim the fallen to throw a shield around the young and unsuspecting to relieve the sufferings and distress of our fellows its only aim sure ly this is noble christian god-like — and him who would raise a voice of opposi tion to the sons of temperance pause and consider lest he be found " lighting against god himself give us the smiles and confidence of the virtuous and good and we will try by practical demonstra tion to convince the wayward and unfor tunate ofthe salutary effects of our prin ciples by teaching them our precepts and inculcating sentiments of morality and virtue in their lives many te mpe r axce ce le bration the order of the sons of temperance in xorth carolina held their quarterly ses sion through their representatives from he several divisions in this place last

prayer was olfered by rev r t blake the chap ain of greensboro division after which mr blake introduced to the audience mr gorman of raleigh who proceeded to deliver an address marked by the excel

were highly entertained by the grace and pow er with which mr g sustained his views the services were closed by prayer by mr duvall of richmond ya the in tervals in the exercises were most agree ably filled by music from the choir of the church the numerous members of the order whose division meets in this place toge ther with those in attendance from other places all formed in procession and ar

disregarded those who would thus trample down the laws , never taking daylight for their work the national era as our readers may be aware was established a little more than twelve months ago and we

such a paper however prudently conducted cannot in our judgment be safely permitted — and when it is tolerated we may naturally look for the occurrence of just such scenes : as are now transpiring in the city of washington as one of its legitimate and i necessary fruits the editor of the era mr g bailey jr in the midst of the excitement addressed a deprecatory ap peal to the people in which he refers to the language he had frequently used in his paper to the effect that although in favor of the abolition of slavery he de sires that it may be accomplished only in accordance with the constitution and j law and that no system of unconstitu ' tional or illegal measures would ever find a supporter in him ; and he affirms his ! entire ignorance ofthe recent attempt in that city to

on the important political ques tions which divide parties in the united states says and from the supposed rela tions existing between the editor of that paper and gen taylor we suspect it does not speak unadvisedly that these publi cations may impose the necessity on gen taylor in his own defence of coming out over his own signature with a brief expo sition of his views and the whig ven tures to predict that should the general deem it proper to make such an exposi tion he will take his stand upon the great republican platform upon which our liberties rest — namely the carelul preservation and scrupulous maintenance ed the distribution of the powers of the genera government between the execu tive legislative and judicial departments as provided for in the constitution our nashville cotemporarv goes on to sav : rich w/iis ' j " we venture to predict that he will declare it to be his fixed determination to leave to the legislative department of the government the business of legisla tion without interposing his individual wishes much less his official inlluence to thwart shape or control it ; and further that he will never interpose his veto ex cept in cases of manifest haste and want ol due consideration by congress or where there has been a clear and palpable vio lation of the constitution this we un dertake to say from unquestionable evi dence now in our possession is the broad conservative whig ground which gen taylor will occupy and which he is rea dy to avow his intention to occupy if ele vated to the executive chair and this settles all questions doubt or difficulty as to the course he will pursue if elected in reference to the tariff the bank and other national measures lie will leave such questions to the decision of congress if the people of the fnited states speak ing through the legitimate and constitu tional channel the legislative depart ment ofthe government shall demand a i bank he will not interpose his inlluence in any way to thwart their wishes should they not desire a bank he will not press one upon them : should they through their representatives in congress signify that they are content with the tariff of 1810 he will not recommend its repeal should they on the other hand through their representatives require its repeal or modifications he stands ready to sanction any act which congress may pass for that purpose ; anil so with the sub-treasury and other measures of national policy with the exception of such cases only as involve clear and palpable violations of the constitution or as are manifestly the result of hasty and inconsiderate legisla tion — in which category is included nei ther of the tariff bank or sub-treasury measures this we have reason to know is the course which general taylor has marked out for himself to pursue in the event of his election and it is the true course the patriotic republican conser i vative whig course let it but be pur sued by our executive magistrates and our free institutions will be co-extensive with all times j from the national intelligencer uf april 22 congress the senate did nol sit yesterday having on thursday adjourned over>to monday tho ifuu<e of representatives did sit hut might as well not have done so as the whole day was devoted to a sort of discussion out of which frequently as it occurs the best that can he saij of it is that no good ever came we refer of course to the question concerning a description of population which exists in some states and not in others and upon which it is impossible lhat the debaters on the one side and those on the other ever can comprehend one another's feelings or convictions this debate arose without any necessity on the proposition hy a member from massa ! chusetts on thursday to raise a

Creates 16" Wide Waterfall
Enjoy hours of relaxation as your pond recreates the beauty of nature.
Top 3 Winter Tips For Your Pond
01/31/2019 11:47:03 AM: Ice Dams- if you choose to run your pump during the winter, and it's powering a waterfall, it's important to monitor for ice dams. These are ice accumulations that can occur at the base of your waterfall during freezing conditions. So, as the pump runs, water has the opportunity to roll over this ice and ultimately out of the pond. Draining your pond. Which, can cause fish loss and ultimately pump failure.
The Pond Insider - Filtration
01/22/2019 10:11:02 AM: Filtration is a key element to mostly every clear and healthy pond. When choosing a filter, it's best to decide based on pond size and fish load. Ponds with heavy fish loads will obviously have more debris, so with those ponds you will want to consider oversizing filtration. Remember, you can never have too much.
Train Your Koi To Hand Feed
01/15/2019 10:25:02 AM: The sounds of a cascading waterfall and birds singing. Not a cloud in the sky. The sun is shining and you're resting by the pond feeding your koi. What could be better than this? How about actually hand feeding them! Follow the few easy steps below and your koi will be eating from the palm of your hand in no time.
Laguna Pond Netting
01/10/2019 11:02:34 AM: Laguna Protective Pond Netting protects valuable koi and goldfish from predators, plus it keeps leaves and other debris out of the pond - protecting submerged circulating pumps from becoming clogged and reducing overall pond maintenance. The black netting material blends naturally in the water garden and comes complete with ground stakes to secure it in place.

Matsumoto, Japan, October 29, 2010 – Germany got off to a smooth start at the FIVB Women's World Championship on Friday with a comfortable 3-0 (25-21, 25-14, 25-16) victory over Kazakhstan. Margareta Kozuch was the top scorer for Germany with 14 points, while Maren Brinker and Christiane Furst added 13 and 11 respectively. Olga Drobyshevskaya came up with 11 and Olessya Arslanova charted 10 for Kazakhstan.FIVB Women's World Championship Japan 2010 official page
The opening phase of the match at the Matsumoto City Gymnasium was even as both teams failed to sparkle. Kazakhstan took an early two-point lead, but the Germans reversed that at 10-8. The eastern Europeans went ahead again at 12-10 after two German errors and a block by Drobyshevskaya on Germany's Corina Ssuschke, but Giovani Guidetti's team then started to find some form, taking the next six points to lead 16-12 at the Second Technical Timeout (STT). Kazakhstan responded to draw level at 19-19 thanks to a spike by Arslanova following a receiving error but the Germans' strength told with Brinker sending down two spikes and blocking Yuliya Kutsko to wrap up the set.
Despite a great block by Olga Nassedkina on Brinker, Kazakhstan remained on the back foot in the opening phase of the second set and coach Nelli Chsherbakova called a timeout with her side 6-2 down. Nassedkina responded with a good spike from a short set, but the Germans were in the driving seat at the First Technical Timeout (FTT), leading 8-4. Germany then went on a five-point surge behind the serving of Furst, and with a powerful slam by Kozuch and a Kazakh receiving error they were fully 10 points ahead at the STT. With Chsherbakova's team struggling to land their spikes in court and Germany's defence looking strong, the contest was becoming lopsided. Although Drobyshevskaya came up with two great blocks and a tipover for Kazakhstan, successive errors by Sana Jarlagassova and Irina Zaitseva secured the set for Germany with an 11-point margin.Kazakhstan kept things close early in the third set and they were within two points of Germany at the FTT. A thumping spike by Kozuch and a service ace from Kathleen Weiss forced Chsherbakova to call a timeout with her team 12-8 behind but it proved to no avail with the big-hitting Kozuch starting to find holes in the Kazakh defence and their attack unable to string enough points together. A wide spike by Lyudmila Anarbayeva handed the Germans match point and another wayward shot by Drobyshevskaya ended the contest.

Worries about money and work are very common for people who have been diagnosed with cancer. These questions can be difficult for anyone, but may seem especially tough if you're self-employed or run your own business.
As well as concerns about your health and personal life, you may be wondering if you will be able to carry on working and how you will pay your bills.
If you've built up your own business, you'll probably have invested a lot of time and hard work. There's a great sense of achievement and satisfaction in being your own boss.
You may be concerned that having cancer could lead to you needing to start all over again when you have recovered, or having to close your business. Having a major illness can also affect your self-confidence, something which you may have come to rely on as a business owner.
You and your family may depend on the income from the business, too. This can add extra pressure as you may find it hard to see how to keep money coming in.
If you plan to carry on working, there's a lot of support available to help see you through. The government, business organisations and voluntary groups offer a range of services to support small businesses, and many of these are free. You may also be eligible for benefits that you may not know about.
You might find it helpful to see our information about financial issues and the benefits that you might be entitled to.
It can feel as though there is less support if you're self-employed. You may not have a group of colleagues to fall back on, or a sick leave policy that keeps paying a salary while you have treatment. But being self-employed may mean that you have more scope for flexible working. It may be easier for you to change direction, or work in a new way that suits you better.
You can get more information about the benefits you may be entitled to by calling the Macmillan Support Line free.

Liv helmets are designed for all types of female riders, wherever they are in their cycling journey. From road and triathlon racing, where speed and aerodynamics matter most, to trail riders looking to push their limits on every ride, and the avid commuter who wants to arrive at her destination while being safe and stylish. New for 2017, many Liv helmets now feature MIPS™ (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) designed to reduce strain in the brain during angled impacts. Each Liv helmet is built on thoughtful designs and ride-specific technologies to keep you cool, comfortable and secure on the roads, paths or trails.

Brain Protection System
1 / 5
MIPS, which stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System, is a patented brain protection system designed to reduce rotational motion from angled impacts that can cause strain in the brain.
MIPS mimics the brain's own protection system inside the skull by adding a low-friction layer between the head and helmet. A helmet with MIPS can absorb more rotational motion from an angled impact.
Brain Protection System
2 / 5
MIPS was developed by some of the world's leading researchers in biomechanics and neuroscience at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and the Karolinska Institute in Sweden.
Strain level images from lab tests where two identical helmets, one with MIPS and one without, tested at the same speed show a clear difference. The red that appears in the image below indicates more strain in the brain. A helmet with MIPS reduces the rotational motion transmitted to the brain.
Brain Protection System
3 / 5
When you fall off your bike, rarely will you hit your head directly on top of your helmet. Generally, when your head impacts the ground it does so at an angle. When this happens, rotational motion occurs to the brain which could cause injury. Luckily, there is a membrane inside your skull that the brain slides along to reduce the rotational motion transmitted to the brain. MIPS uses a low-friction layer between the head and helmet similar to the membrane inside your skull, which in experimental and numerical tests has shown a reduction of rotational motion to the brain.
Brain Protection System
4 / 5
Since 1996, research and tests have been performed to compare a helmet with MIPS to a conventional helmet. The results have shown it is possible to reduce the rotational motion transmitted to the brain by adding the MIPS.
At Liv, we are committed to providing cutting edge technologies and integration of enhanced protection with partners like MIPS. When you are zooming down a mountain pass, navigating technical off-road terrain or negotiating city traffic, you should be able to pedal in confidence knowing your helmet has you covered. Liv helmets with MIPS will never interfere with our helmet's comfort or design, so there are no sacrifices when it comes to style.

In Jerusalem, Even the Dentist Lets You Know Who's in Charge
Nora Lester Murad
Jerusalem, Palestine
A lot of people hate going to the dentist because it hurts. I hate going to the dentist in Jerusalem because it hurts, but not in my mouth. It hurts my sense of belonging.
We go to an Israeli dental clinic.
Many Palestinians in Jerusalem go to Israeli dental clinics. Why shouldn't they? Palestinians who have residency in Jerusalem are entitled to Israeli health insurance. It's one of the few benefits they got when Israel illegally annexed Jerusalem.
Nearly all the approximately 300,000 Palestinians living in East Jerusalem are "residents." They were born in Jerusalem (like their parents, and their parents' parents) but despite Israel's annexation, they are not citizens of Israel. They have no voice in the Israeli elections that determine their fate. Not that they necessarily want to vote in the Israeli elections. But I digress.
Last time I took my children to the Israeli dental clinic, the receptionist waved us to the x-ray room and a technician hurried my middle daughter into the big faux-leather chair.
"Wait! Why does she need an x-ray?" I intervened.
The woman had straight blond hair and a pink hair extension that matched her pinkish lipstick. She looked at me with a totally unreadable look on her face.
"She's having her teeth cleaned. She doesn't need an x-ray," I repeated in English. My middle daughter was looking uncomfortable in the chair, embarrassed. The other two had backed into the waiting area and were pretending not to know me.
The technician shouted to the receptionist and there was soon a small congregation of Israeli women around me, all speaking Russian. They were trying to figure out what my problem was.
The dentist herself came out from her room in the back carrying my daughter's dental records. I could understand her Hebrew despite her heavy Russian accent, "If you want to see the dentist, you have to have an x-ray," she proclaimed, as if it were a law of nature.
I tried to explain in my few words of Hebrew: "Teeth cleaning. Last time we came, the hygienist wrote in the file that we needed to come back." I tapped the file in her hand. It would all be clear if she would just read the dental record.
But she didn't. The dentist turned on her heel and walked through the reception area talking loudly. "This lady wants me to write in the file that her daughter got an x-ray but she doesn't want her daughter to have the x-ray!"
I was livid, frustrated, powerless.
"She doesn't need an x-ray!" I raised my voice, following her to her office.
"I decide!" she countered.
By then, all my children were ready to crawl into the medicine cabinet with shame.
And I made it worse.
I approached a Palestinian woman sitting with her children in the waiting room. I asked her in Arabic if she knew enough Hebrew to explain to "those crazy people" (yes, I was angry) that my daughter needed her teeth cleaned, not an x-ray. She didn't look too happy to be associated with me in any way, but she stood up to help.
Then the door to the hygienist's room opened and she stepped out, interested in all the commotion. I ran to her. Her long bouncy curls had changed colors since our last visit.
"Do you remember me?" I asked in English.
"Of course!" She smiled at my children and I felt a wave of relief. She is the reason why we go to that clinic. She makes flossing and mouthwash and fluoride fun.
"Can you please tell them I want you to clean my daughter's teeth? I told them you wrote it on her dental record, but they don't understand."
A few minutes later, my middle daughter was reclining in the hygienist's chair having her teeth cleaned.
"Apparently the person who scheduled your appointment at your last visit thought you wanted to see the dentist," she said as she worked. "And everyone who sees the dentist for the first time needs an x-ray."
"You provide services in Hebrew and in Russian," I said. "Why not in Arabic? Isn't Arabic also an official language of Israel?"
There was a pause and the hygienist looked at me, humanity shining in her eyes. She didn't respond to me, but she spoke to my daughter. I think she said: "Spit."

When I was writing the process steps for the IPA Guacamole in my cookbook I thought it a good idea to offer some advice on how to take the avocados from intact to in the bowl. I did a bit of old-fashioned crowdsourcing and it turns out that you've already cracked this nut.
To my amazement, just about everyone named a different method: peel the avocado with a vegetable peeler (seriously?); or with a paring knife; pry the pit out with a spoon; or try to flick it away with your thumb. Obviously, I would've been wasting space on a problem that was already vaguely under control. (more…)

Pasta question for our Italian members
I made a batch of tagliatelle today. I use Marcella Hazan's recipe which calls for 2 large eggs and 1 1/2 cups of AP flour. However, I have been curious how it would be made with Italian doppio 0 flour. I used Caputo red label. To my surprise, it was much thirstier than KAF AP, and I had to add a couple tablespoons of water to the dough for it to come together. Even with the added water, the dough was drier than usual. I was surprised because Marcella says the recipe usually used in Northern Italy is 1 cup of flour to one egg. I wonder if Italian eggs are usually larger than our "large" eggs, or if there is another explanation. Maybe one of our Italian members has an explanation.
I don't have enough experience comparing American AP with Italian tipo 00 flours in terms of water absorption and am curious about this.
In any event, the pasta, made with an Atlas crank pasta machine, sure seems lovely. I'll see how it tastes at dinner tomorrow, with a sauce of home made ground turkey Italian sausage and kale.
Thanks in advance for any insights you can share.
