5:1 And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. 5:2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying: 5:3 "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. 5:5 Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. 5:6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. 5:7 Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. 5:10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 5:11 Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 5:12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you."
The Beatitudes are part of Jesus' "Sermon on the Mount." This was a sermon delivered on a hillside near the Sea of Galilee. There as been some discussion over this sermon in regards to whether Jesus preached it all at one time, or was it a compilation of other sayings and sermons taught by Jesus. However, most scholars, and more importantly the Gospel accounts agree that the scripture for the Sermon on the Mount, came from a single sermon preached by Jesus. And that it was this sermon or portions thereof, which the Gospel writers recorded for our edification. What we call the "Beatitudes," are part of the opening portion of that sermon. Because of the significance of Jesus' message, which make up the Beatitudes, they have been grouped together, set apart and given a distinct name, despite the fact that they were part of His overall sermon. The location where the Sermon on the Mount was preached is commonly referred to as the "Mount of Beatitudes." And it's believed to be located on the northwestern shores of the Sea of Galilee, somewhere between Capernaum and Gennesaret. This was a location where Jesus frequently taught the people and spoke to the crowds. The setting for the sermon takes place after Jesus had finished praying alone on the mountain side and was coming down the hillside with His disciples. The Gospel of Luke tells us, "Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God. And when it was day, He called His disciples to Himself; and from them He chose twelve whom He also named apostles."
After praying on the hillside, Jesus called His disciples and chose from among them twelve men whom He then named apostles. After doing this, Jesus descended from the hillside to a larger, more open and level area where a multitude had assembled, and it was there that He taught the people. Luke goes on to tell us, "And He came down with them and stood on a level place with a crowd of His disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear Him and be healed of their diseases, as well as those who were tormented with unclean spirits. And they were healed." Afterwhich Jesus taught the people. Many Bible scholars and theologians believe that the hillside spoken of here in these passages, was part of the mountain ridge that ran east to west, not far from Capernaum, near the shores of the Sea of Galilee. The name of this ridge is "Kurun Hattin," which means "Horns of Hattin." However, after Jesus time, after His death and resurrection as Christianity began to grow and spread, the location became known as the "Mount of Beatitudes." The Beatitudes make up the introductory statements of Jesus' sermon as He speaks about the future blessings of those who place their faith in Him alone for salvation. These blessings make up part of the many promises and gifts of God, which are given to those who repent and turn away from their sins, and turn to Jesus by faith alone. Jesus calls on His followers to be good and to do good. But not by their own power, but by the power of the Holy Spirit who indwells all followers of Christ. This is because it's the Holy Spirit who gives us the faith to believe, and then sanctifies us in that faith as we grow in Christ.

When we planned to visit the Canadian Rockies, Kasia and I had a pretty good idea of where we wanted to photograph. After all, we used to live in Calgary – the eastern gateway to the majestic Rockies. This city, famous for its “Chinook” winds and the greatest show on earth, the Stampede, welcomed us with a show of its own. We encountered stormy skies, a rainbow and a sky worthy of a sci-fi movie.
In general when we travel we prefer to cover less well-known places. However, the Canadian Rockies have some gems that are difficult to ignore and Moraine Lake is one of them. We arrived at 4:50 AM at sunrise with the hope of seeing a few clouds but we got sunny skies. The rising sun’s rays as they moved across the peaks were pretty spectacular to watch.
Less known but also beautiful, Hulbert and Peyto Lakes offer their own spectacular vistas.
We spent a considerable amount of time in Kananaskis Country – not as often visited but one of our favourite parts of the Canadian Rockies. If you take a loop via the #40 and then the Smith Dorrien Trail to Canmore and back to Highway #1, you will be rewarded with stunning scenery. Here are a few images.
Sometimes the best shots of the Rockies are from a distance. To get this perspective we headed south on Highway #22, along Cowboy Trail. And what fantastic views this road offers! But more about this and gorgeous Waterton Park next time.
All images were shot with the Fuji X-T1 paired with the XF 14mm F2.8, XF 56mm F1.2 and Fuji X100S.
Very nice stuff, especially the black and white images… I can’t help but feel like the color mountain photos are just a bit cool, though (WB-wise)?
Beautiful shots in amazing places.
Beautiful! Much processing of the B & W images?

Merida Flowerpiercer is a medium sized species of the genus Diglossa, a genus distinguished by its upturned bill with a sharp hook at the end used to pierce flowers and obtain nectar (Ridgely and Tudor 2009). This species is primarily colored black, chestnut, and gray (Hilty 2003). It has a chestnut colored belly and black upper parts, and is easily distinguished from other species by its gray shoulder patch and narrow gray supercilium (Hilty 2003). It was previously considered a subspecies of Gray-bellied Flowerpiercer Diglossa carbonaria (as also were Black Flowerpiercer Diglossa humeralis and Black-throated Flowerpiercer Diglossa brunneiventris), but now is classified as its own species (Dickinson and Christidis 2014, Clements et al. 2015) and as a member of the carbonaria superspecies (Vuilleumier 1969). The name Diglossa gloriosa has both Greek and Latin origins (Jobling 2010). The genus name Diglossa comes from the Greek word diglōssos, meaning "double-tongued" or "speaking two languages"; and the species name gloriosa comes from the Latin word gloriosus, meaning "glorious" or "famous" (Jobling 2010).
Merida Flowerpiercer is similar in appearance to many members of the genus Diglossa that are generally black and unpatterned, but with a conspicuously rufous belly (Vuilleumier 1969). It formerly was considered a subspecies of Gray-bellied Flowerpiercer D. carbonaria, together with the other members of what is now considered a superspecies group – D. carbonaria, Black Flowerpiercer D. humeralis, and Black-throated Flowerpiercer D. brunneiventris (Ridgely and Tudor 2009); these are similarly sized, geographically taxa, all of which have a gray shoulder patch and are mostly black. Merida Flowerpiercer overlaps geographically with Rusty Flowerpiercer D. sittoides, which is gray (not black) above, and which has entirely tawny underparts (rather than a black throat and breast); and with Glossy Flowerpiercer D. lafresnayii, which is larger, and which entirely black underparts (Ridgely and Tudor 2009). It also overlaps with Blue-backed Conebill Conirostrum sitticolor, which is superficially similar, but which has a blue back, and a smaller, pointed (not hooked) bill (Ridgely and Tudor 2009). Merida Flowerpiercer is most similar in plumage pattern to two allopatric species, Black-throated Flowerpiercer (of Colombia, Peru, and northwestern Bolivia) and Chestnut-bellied Flowerpiercer Diglossa gloriosissima (of Colombia). Black-throated Flowerpiercer is further distinguished by its deeper chestnut breast and belly, and chestnut submoustachial stripe. The plumage pattern of Chestnut-bellied Flowerpiercer is strikingly similar to that of Merida Flowerpiercer, but Chestnut-bellied is larger, lacks the indistinct gray supercilium, has a bluer should patch, and has deeper chestnut belly and undertail coverts. The general behavior of Merida Flowerpiercer is similar to that of Glossy Flowerpiercer, although Merida is considered less stealthy (Hilty 2003).
Adult: Merida Flowerpiercer is deep, but not glossy, black with a chestnut colored breast, belly, and undertail coverts (Hilty 2003). Some individuals of this species may also show traces of a rufous submoustachial stripe (Hilty 2003). The bill is black and characteristic of Diglossa with a slender, slightly upturned bill and longer upper mandible with a sharp hook at the end (Ridgely and Tudor 2009). The sexes are similar in appearance to the human eye (Hilty 2011). However, the species is sexually dichromatic when quantified using a model of avian vision (Burns and Shultz 2012). Therefore, these tanagers can visually distinguish between males and females, even though humans are unable to see these differences.
Juvenile: Dingy, grayish brown above, with faint mottling and streaking on back (Restall et al. 2007, Hilty 2011). The color is paler below, with dark brown streaking on the breast and throat (Restall et al. 2007, Hilty 2011). The remiges are dark brown with buff edges (Hilty 2011).
Immature: Fjeldså and Krabbe (1990) describe the immature Merida Flowerpiercer as dusky brown and faintly streaked above with a dark brown throat and chest with pale streaking. There is sometimes white mottling on the face that would suggest a moustache and supercilium. The lower parts are a somewhat streaked rusty buff color (Hilty 2003).
Tanagers that have been studied have either a Complex Basic Strategy or Complex Alternative Strategy (Ryder and Wolfe 2009). However, most tanagers only molt once a year (Isler and Isler 1987), and this prebasic molt likely occurs after the breeding season (Isler and Isler 1987, Ryder and Wolfe 2009). Many species have been found to breed in subadult plumage (Isler and Isler 1987). Although a juvenile and "immature" plumage is described for Diglossa gloriosa (Restall et al. 2007, Hilty 2011) more specific information on molt and its timing is not available for this species.

BOGOTA, COLOMBIA – On Thursday (8/9) afternoon, the Office of the Attorney General of Colombia announced two new charges against the former head of the National Infrastructure Agency (“ANI”), Luis F. Andrade. These are in addition to eight previous charges placed against him last year related to the Odebrecht corruption scandal.
Mr. Andrade, a U.S. citizen, led the creation of ANI in 2011 and served as its President for six years. Previously, he was a Senior Partner at McKinsey & Co., where he worked for 25 years. Since December, Mr. Andrade has been serving in preventive detention with a possible sentence of up to 30 years. In the meantime, the executives of Odebrecht and Grupo AVAL, who might have authorized or might have known about the illegal payments are not being charged or being charged with lesser offenses by the Prosecutor.
The Attorney General, the nation’s highest legal officer, has close ties to Odebrecht and its local partner, Grupo AVAL. He worked as external counsel for the Odebrecht PPPs in Colombia and for two decades was external counsel to Grupo AVAL. At the time he issued a favorable legal opinion for the decision, which is the main object of charges against Andrade. Then, as President Santos’s Chief of staff, he participated in the approval process for which Andrade is being charged. Attorney General’s close involvement in the charges involving Mr. Andrade’s case make him uniquely unqualified to render legal judgement absent of bias. An independent investigator is needed to oversee all cases and charges involving Odebreht or Grupo AVAL.
With the new charges, Andrade continues to fall victim to an aggressive persecution by the Attorney General’s office and its conflicted interests. For this, Mr. Andrade is calling for newly elected President Duque to appoint an independent investigator to oversee the cases involving Odebrecht and Grupo AVAL. It is only tenable to investigate thoroughly those who might have authorized or might have known about the illegal payments through an independent investigator given the evident conflicts of interest in the Attorney General’s office.

Danielle de Niese does Handel, and more.
Danielle de Niese, the diva who can bring a new generation to opera.
That is my code name, of course. My real name is Dr. Piggy. I am director of research and development for Designing Women (NYSE: DeWo), a firm that designs women. Three years ago, Peter Gelb, the incoming managing director of the Metropolitan Opera, asked me to create a diva who could bring new life and new subscribers to that venerable art. With a hand-picked team of geneticists, biophysicists, and overpaid music critics, I drew up plans for a creature of superhuman beauty and talent, capable of singing, dancing, acting, and chewing gum at the same time, and charged with an animal magnetism of 10,000 Gauss. We were about to build the prototype when Mr. Gelb called to cancel the order.
Though the contract is still in litigation, I can see his point.
In the summer of 2005, the soprano scheduled to sing the role of Cleopatra in a new production of Handel’s Giulio Cesare at the Glyndebourne Festival in Sussex, England, fell sick. Desperate, the management turned to a nobody: a 26-year-old of Dutch and Sri Lankan extraction, extracted from Australia at the age of 10, and raised in California. The youngest singer ever accepted into the Metropolitan Opera’s training program, she’d made her Met debut as Barbarina, to good notices, at the age of 19. Her name was Danielle de Niese.
On opening night, she ceased to be a nobody. Audiences roared themselves hoarse. Critics could barely keep their flies buttoned. David McVicar’s cheeky production—which transposed the action from the Roman Empire to the British and spiced Handel’s arias with dance moves from Bollywood, Broadway, and MTV—seemed custom-cut for de Niese’s outsized talents. In fact it was custom-cut for them, partly. When, in rehearsal, McVicar and his choreographer, Andrew George, saw what de Niese could do, they kept pushing the envelope: “Can you do this?” Invariably, she could.
Lip-syncing on MTV is a breeze; singing opera at full voice while dancing is not. Maintaining precise breath control can be agonizing (“My heart was beating in my throat,” de Niese says), and one has to shuttle constantly between the tight diaphragm required for dancing and the loose one required for singing. (By the way, this little problem gave the biophysicists on our design team a real headache; in the end, we had to spring for two diaphragms.) To be sure, de Niese did most of the really aerobic stuff during her arias’ ritornellos, or instrumental breaks. Even so, her feat was pretty stunning.
Those of us who missed it because we were busy designing the perfect diva will have another shot next month, when the same production is mounted by the Chicago Lyric Opera. In the meantime, we can watch the DVD (BBC/Opus Arte). And we can listen to her debut album, a recital of Handel arias released this week by Decca.
De Niese’s backers believe she could bring a new generation to opera. I fully expect her to rope in several generations, including not only those who have reached puberty but those who are still watching cartoons. De Niese has the larger-than-life features of a Disney princess. Figuratively (by which I mean literally, with regard to her figure), she is a flesh-and-blood ‘Toon, a regular Jessica Rabbit. She is built for the theater, her every eye roll and lip purse reading loud and clear even from the nosebleed section. Yet the camera loves her, too, a fact first discovered by producers in Los Angeles who made her host of a children’s TV show when she was 12. (She won an Emmy four years later.) At a distance of 14 inches (the closest I got, on my honor), her eyes are so large as to be dizzying. Her mouth is constructed on a similarly queenly scale. When she sings or speaks her lips put on a show of their own, a bijoux ballet.
We tend to assume that the sort of opera most likely to attract new audiences is the sort written by Verdi or Puccini, in which characters behave in a relatively natural manner (e.g., singing continuously in long arcs of melody, often while dying). But it may turn out that older, more “artificial” forms, such as Handel’s opera seria, are a better draw. The plots may be convoluted, but they move in quick bursts of recitative, between which one can kick back and enjoy the arias. These resemble modern pop songs in (A) offering a snapshot of emotion, (B) being in ABA form, and (C) lending themselves to MTV treatment. And (D) just as the American popular song tradition, from the Café Carlisle to American Idol, allows one to “put one’s own spin on the standards” (in de Niese’s words), so does the return of the A section give ample room for creative ornamentation, which not only colors the music emotionally but “gives the singer a chance to show off, which I think modern audiences can relate to.” Since (E through H) Handel was probably, as Winton Dean remarks, “the greatest melodist in musical history” (think Messiah, then multiply by 23 oratorios, 50 operas, etc., etc.), you’ve got quite a songbook to work with.
Since I may have given the impression that my admiration for de Niese rests on extramusical grounds, let me use her new record as a chance to test that hypothesis.
De Niese is an enchantress, of course. Her magic does not require that she be physically present; it works just fine on video. But if so much of it is visual, what happens when all she has to conjure with is her voice? Will the spell—transferred to a spinning circle—be unbroken? Or will her man come to his senses and escape?
Let’s take the opening cut: ” Da tempeste,” the bravura aria Cleopatra sings when, having escaped dungeons, daggers, and a particularly nasty countertenor, she suddenly finds herself with Egypt, Caesar, and the known world at her feet. “If a ship, buffeted by storms, then reaches safe harbor, it no longer knows what to wish for.” In this foray into nautical psychology even so fine a Cleopatra as Magdalena Kozená falls short, incising a triumph so steely that one wonders if her dreadnought was ever at risk. De Niese, at a less frenetic tempo, conveys relief and a giddy joy: She’s on solid ground, but her legs are still shaking. In the repeat of the A section, where most singers just strut their stuff, de Niese uses ornaments as tools to dig deeper into the truth of the scene, striking gold with a spine-tingling cadenza. Compare the cadenza offered more than 40 years ago by one of the first Cleopatras on record, and to many ears still the best (of whom more later): It’s great fun, but empty of musical or dramatic sense.
If, on more plaintive numbers (such as “Lascia ch’io pianga,” from Rinaldo, de Niese doesn’t always sound the uttermost depths of sorrow, her youthful passion has a power of its own. Under, or somewhere near, the baton of William Christie—her conductor at Glyndebourne and elsewhere—the players of Les Arts Florissants partner her gallantly.
A quibble: While on the Glyndebourne DVD de Niese’s voice is, like her person, luscious from top to bottom, on the record it seems just a tad uneven, with hints of glare in the upper or “cash” register (so called because it produces the “money note”); I trust this can be chalked up to close miking and to the acoustics of the Paris church in which the recording was made. Mostly, though, the voice remains fresh, delicious—and, yes, enchanting. At least for this victim, the spell holds. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that Decca has graced the CD booklet with an all-Danielle fashion portfolio worthy of Vogue.
A young American singer takes the role of Cleopatra and is catapulted to instant fame. Sound familiar? It should if you paid the slightest attention to the recent obits for Beverly Sills, whose Cleopatrapulting took place in 1966. I’m not about to equate the two ladies vocally (love may be blind, but it isn’t deaf). Still, there are parallels worth drawing.
Onstage and off, Sills came across as unaffected, even “natural.” But it isn’t possible to be natural in opera any more than in sword-swallowing. In Donizetti’s Daughter of the Regiment—a 1974 Wolf Trap performance taped for TV—her gestures and facial expressions are refreshing because they come not from opera buffa but from vaudeville and Hollywood. (She claimed she took her cues from Lucille Ball, but she reminds me more of Harpo.) Even in more serious roles, such as her sublime Manon, one sensed a light emanating more from the Great White Way than from La Scala or the Palais Garnier.
De Niese, too, oxygenates the opera house with acting that seems unoperatic—which is not to say it’s not stagey. She could be Cleoparachuted into a Hilary Duff or Lindsay Lohan flick, and no one would bat an eye, at least until she started singing; even then, her dance moves might well distract viewers from the fact that the notes were written almost 300 years ago by a man wearing a wig the size of a collie.
Sills, who could duet with Danny Kaye as gracefully as with Nicolai Gedda, made many Americans feel at home in opera for the first time. De Niese has the potential to be that sort of rara avis (as Julius would say): not a glitzy, bloated “crossover” star, but one who doesn’t need to cross over because she naturally lives in both worlds.
I could be wrong, of course—in which case, Mr. Gelb, Galatea 1.0 is ready to roll.

a quibble: while on the glyndebourne dvd de niese’s voice is, like her person, luscious from top to bottom, on the record it seems just a tad uneven, with hints of glare in the upper or “cash” register (so called because it produces the “money note”); i trust this can be chalked up to close miking and to the acoustics of the paris church in which the recording was made. mostly, though, the voice remains fresh, delicious—and, yes, enchanting. at least for this victim, the spell holds. of course, it doesn’t hurt that decca has graced the cd booklet with an all-danielle fashion portfolio worthy of vogue.
a young american singer takes the role of cleopatra and is catapulted to instant fame. sound familiar? it should if you paid the slightest attention to the recent obits for beverly sills, whose cleopatrapulting took place in 1966. i’m not about to equate the two ladies vocally (love may be blind, but it isn’t deaf). still, there are parallels worth drawing.
onstage and off, sills came across as unaffected, even “natural.” but it isn’t possible to be natural in opera any more than in sword-swallowing. in donizetti’s daughter of the regiment—a 1974 wolf trap performance taped for tv—her gestures and facial expressions are refreshing because they come not from opera buffa but from vaudeville and hollywood. (she claimed she took her cues from lucille ball, but she reminds me more of harpo.) even in more serious roles, such as her sublime manon, one sensed a light emanating more from the great white way than from la scala or the palais garnier.
de niese, too, oxygenates the opera house with acting that seems unoperatic—which is not to say it’s not stagey. she could be cleoparachuted into a hilary duff or lindsay lohan flick, and no one would bat an eye, at least until she started singing; even then, her dance moves might well distract viewers from the fact that the notes were written almost 300 years ago by a man wearing a wig the size of a collie.
sills, who could duet with danny kaye as gracefully as with nicolai gedda, made many americans feel at home in opera for the first time. de niese has the potential to be that sort of rara avis (as julius would say): not a glitzy, bloated “crossover” star, but one who doesn’t need to cross over because she naturally lives in both worlds.
i could be wrong, of course—in which case, mr. gelb, galatea 1.0 is ready to roll.

TODAY IS THE FEAST DAY of Saint Albert the Great (ca. 1200-1280), Albertus Magnus, the 13th century Dominican, theologian, bishop, scientist, philosopher, and prodigious writer. He was the Pope's personal theologian, and worked to heal the schism with the Orthodox Christians. He is called the "Universal Doctor" due to his encyclopedic writings.
The division of knowledge into various fields can be considered an efficient specialization of intellectual labor. But it can also be seen as a kind of decadence, dividing up the world into various, and often conflicting, viewpoints. Saint Albert studied everything under the general umbrella of philosophy, and so unified knowledge, instead of scattering it.
Albert did not reject the philosophy of the pagans, but instead took what was true and rejected what was not, all done within a Christian framework. He made the study of Aristotle respectable in Christian circles, by refuting unorthodox conclusions made by earlier pagan, Jewish, and Islamic commentators. Albert was a critical admirer of Aristotle: although he found much agreement with the ancient Greek, he wasn't afraid to point out his mistakes also. Due in part to Saint Albert, a great synthesis of orthodoxy in theology and philosophy developed among the monotheistic faiths.
Albert's student at the University of Paris, Saint Thomas Aquinas, is a better theologian, but Albert's interests were far broader, including physics, chemistry, botany, zoology, astronomy, mathematics, and geography, and was a recognized authority in all of these. He accurately calculated the size of the earth, and wrote about the lands that were either known or suspected to exist between Europe and Asia: this predates the discovery of America by centuries. He also was a master of the experimental sciences and the mechanical arts: he famously coined the term "android" and constructed a speaking robot (apparently using hydraulics), which purportedly was destroyed by his pupil Saint Thomas. Albert discovered and isolated arsenic, which was the first new element discovered since antiquity.
Sadly, the modern mind believes that no science was done between Democritus and Galileo.
Albert was elected prior provincial of the Dominican Province of Teutonia, which is primarily Germany. The Order of Preachers was growing quickly during this time period, and Saint Albert would travel on foot to each of the friaries or convents. He had a method to his travels: along the route, he would investigate the local plants, animals, geology, and such forth; upon arrival at a friary, he would go to the chapel to offer thanks to God for a safe journey; then he would go to the library to see if they had any new books.
For a while Albert was, unwillingly, made Bishop of Regensburg; he found the Diocese bankrupt. He used his considerable intellect to reform his diocese, and practiced a form of "management by walking around", visiting his entire diocese on foot, seeing the problems for himself. Albert later was kept very busy as an arbitrator, and traveled constantly performing consecrations, so much so that he complained that he didn't have enough time for prayer or study.
Albertus Magnus, in the centuries following his death, gained the reputation of being a magician and wizard, and so is often praised in occult circles. He was also credited with the discovery of the "Philosopher's Stone", a substance that could either transmute base metals into gold or create an elixir of life. (Note to Harry Potter fans: the Philosopher's Stone of the British edition of the first Potter novel was changed in the American edition to Sorcerer's Stone because, apparently, they thought that Americans are stupid.) But we should recall Arthur C. Clarke's third law: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic," and Saint Albert was an advanced technologist for his day, doing things that appeared to later generations to be miraculous. Unfortunately, after the Middle Ages, much philosophy of that era was discarded and forgotten, including its scientific advancements. Regarding the Philosopher's Stone, Albert theorized that transmutation of the elements was impossible: he assumed that elements were actually elemental, that is base substances. Only later did we learn about protons, neutrons, and electrons and radioactive decay.
Saint Albert coined the term "preternatural" as a distinction between the natural and the supernatural. In Catholic theology, the supernatural is reserved to acts and gifts of God alone: it is above and beyond the created realm. The preternatural order of things still exists within created nature, although it is nature in the extreme and far beyond the ordinary. For example, angelic beings are bound by the laws of nature just as much as humans, animals, and rocks are, but they have preternatural speed and intelligence, that is, far beyond that of humans. There is then no theoretical distinction in Medieval philosophy between occult magic and technology, except that with occult magic, a practitioner seeks demonic assistance instead of using reason. A magician, in principle, can only do things that can also be done, at least theoretically, with technology.
The loss of Saint Albert's idea of the preternatural order of nature leads many modern minds, dissatisfied with our current sciences, to embrace the occult, unaware of its dangers to the soul.

A Scottish scientist who became one of the world’s foremost researchers in deep-sea ecology has been awarded the OBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List.
Edinburgh-born Dr John Gordon, who lives in Easdale, Isle of Seil, spent his whole research career at the Oban-based Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS) after completing a PhD at Edinburgh University.
Dr Gordon began his research in the shallow waters of the Firth of Lorn but, with the commissioning of the RRS Challenger in 1974, he moved into deeper waters (500 to 1,500m) to the west of Scotland’s continental slope, working on the biology of the bottom-living fish which were later to be commercially fished.
His work contributed greatly to our knowledge of food chains in the deep sea and how commercial trawling affects fish populations in deeper water.
Dr Gordon said: “I was greatly surprised, and of course honoured, to be recommended for an OBE for services to science. I had to go back several times to the letter to make sure it was true!
Other key investigations by Dr Gordon helped to determine the age and stock identification of deep water commercial fish.
In 1994, he was named Buckland Professor, which involved giving public lectures on deep-water fisheries at venues throughout the UK.
In 1995, he was appointed chairman of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) Study Group on the Biology and Assessment of Deep-sea Fishery Resources, a post he held until 2000, and he also provided advice and evidence to organisations such as the European Commission, the North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC); the Scottish Government and the House of Lords Select Committee on Science and Technology.
Professor Geoffrey Boulton, President of SAMS, commented: “The Earth is a water planet, with 71% of its surface covered by oceans that are essential to the maintenance of life. John’s work on the deep ocean biosphere and the implications of its exploitation is a fundamental contribution to the vital understanding of the oceans that is necessary for a sustainable human future.
Dr Gordon retired in 2002 as Principal Scientific Officer at SAMS but remains an Honorary Research Fellow. His international reputation kept him busy as a keynote speaker and with several consultancies.

Showing results for tags 'reasonable'.
http://www.usga.org/content/usga/home-page/rules-hub/rules-modernization/major-proposed-changes/proposed-change--reasonable-judgment-in-estimating-and-measuring.html The proposed rule says: In talking with a few USGA folks, they've said this is mostly for estimating where a ball crossed the margin of a penalty area or GUR or whatever, or for measuring 20" or whatever (i.e. if they measure but the stick is half an inch from the ball, and they drop at the 20" mark, that's fine) on drops. But then in the "reasons for change" they specifically say this: Does 0.7" count as a "small inaccuracy"? To me, for a well-sighted athletic young woman, "reasonable" is a pretty small window. I don't think placing the ball 0.7" away is at all "reasonable." Especially when she did nothing but lift the ball a few inches and put it right back down. She didn't walk away and forget that she'd marked the ball to the side. That's why I still don't think that rule would have saved her. It would have simply led to more controversy. Wayne likely doesn't feel it was "reasonable" either: I think she's at fault of more than a "small inaccuracy," particularly when you consider that she lifted the ball only a few inches and was staring down at it the entire time. If you ignore Wayne's talking, you'll see many replays in a row of her lifting and replacing the ball… poorly. Unreasonably.
