More news from Rome, again from Zenit:
Holy See Approves 3 Alternative Closing Messages
VATICAN CITY, OCT. 14, 2008 (Zenit.org).- The Holy See has approved three alternatives to "Ite, missa est," the final words said by the priest at Mass.Cardinal Francis Arinze, prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Sacraments, today notified the participants in the synod of bishops on the word of God about the new alternatives. The final message is currently rendered in English: "The Mass is ended, go in peace."
Benedict XVI has approved the alternatives, which were requested at the 2005 synod on the Eucharist to express the missionary spirit that should follow from the celebration of Mass.
According to Cardinal Arinze, the Pope had asked for suggestions to be presented. The congregation received 72, from which they prepared nine proposals. The Holy Father has chosen three.
The alternatives are in the revised third "editio typica" of the Roman Missal, which was printed last week, the cardinal said.
The alternatives are:
--"Ite ad Evangelium Domini nuntiandum"
--"Ite in pace, glorificando vita vestra Dominum"
--"Ite in pace" with "alleluia, alleluia" added during Easter season.
In English, these could be rendered along the lines of "go to announce the Gospel of the Lord"; "go in peace, glorifying the Lord with your lives"; and simply, "go in peace (alleluia, alleluia)."
The original Latin final message, "Ite, missa est," has not been modified.
Eucharistic compendium
Cardinal Arinze also announced that a Eucharistic compendium, also suggested by the '05 synod on the Eucharist, is nearly finished.
The book will define Eucharistic doctrine, benediction, Eucharistic holy hours, adoration, and prayers before and after Mass, he explained.
The cardinal further said that the Holy See, at the request of the Pope and the 2005 synod, is studying the most adequate moment during the Mass for the sign of peace.
The Holy Father indicated that episcopal conferences should consider two options: either before the "Agnus Dei" or after the Prayers of the Faithful. Each bishops' conference is to respond by the end of October, though there is a three-week grace period for late responses. The proposals will then be presented to the Holy Father, who will make a decision on the matter.
Finally, Cardinal Arinze announced that his congregation is preparing a volume with thematic materials for homily, with the aim of assisting and supporting priests throughout the world with their preaching.

"The Mass is ended. Go forth and do battle with the devil, the world and the flesh" would have been more to my liking.
Pastor in Monte said...
—and Ite Missa est, to mine!
df said...
I love the Pope and what he's done for the Latin Rite in his short reign so far... but do we really need more options? And do we really need to change the moment of the Pax? I think it's a fine thing that the Pax is proclaimed to the people once the Lord has descended to the Altar (which of course is shown more clearly still in the EF).
Vernon said...
Unless, in the OF, the Pax is to be drastically reformed and confined to the Sanctuary (as it is in the EF) then it is better to move this highly disruptive element away from the solemn celebration of the Canon of the Mass and place it with the other OF frivolity the Prayers of the Faithful (Bidding Prayers).
The Cardinal said...
One reason that liturgists for years have been saying that the sign of peace should come before the presentation of gifts is nothing more than Jesus's own words: "Before you bring your gift to the altar, go and be reconciled with your brother or sister and then bring your gift...." - scarcely a frivolity. Similarly, the Oratio Universalis (aka Bidding Prayers, not a very good term) is far from a frivolity but simply bringing back into the rite what was already there before mediaeval developments started to skew things.
df: It's unwise to talk about the Lord descending to the altar. Re-read Paul VI's Mysterium fidei (1965) on "modes of presence", and think (for example) about the Real Presence in the liturgical assembly ("Where two or three are gathered in me name...") or in the Proclamation of the Word, to name but two of many. Your phraseology could imply that the Lord is not present before the words of consecration, which is simply untrue.
The neutral, non-denominational, totally secular "Go in peace" will dominate.

Q&A with Gretchen Lieberum
HOMETOWN: Berkeley, Calif.
ALBUM: "Brand New Morning" (Lakeshore; release date: April 23).
THE SOUND: Neo-soul, influenced by 1970s jazz.
PRODUCERS: Lieberum, Greg Poree.
FIRST SINGLE: "Brazen Girl."
OTHER TRACKS: "Dear Marie," "Blue September," "Heart On Your Sleeve," "Ruby-Eyed," "Brand New Morning," "Rapture of the Blue," "Home," "Natalie," "Weather Page," "Lost Our Way," "For All We Know."
WEB SITE: www.gretchenmusic.com.
SOMETHING TO KNOW: Her songs have appeared on MTV's "Undressed" and The WB's "Felicity."
SOMEBODY'S STANDING IN A CD STORE AND COMES ACROSS YOUR ALBUM. THEY'RE CURIOUS ABOUT BUYING IT; WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO CONVINCE THEM?:
Lieberum – "I guess I would say that the album is an innovative mix of soul, trip-hop and jazz, with strong, emotional vocals, filled with beautiful performances from truly talented musicians, and that it would make a lovely gift for you and/or your loved ones!"
WHAT SONG DEFINES YOU?:
Lieberum – "I originally wrote 'Brazen Girl' for a friend who was going through some rough times. But as I continued to write the song, it really became a song about myself as well. It's a song about letting go of anger and regret, being brave and honest. It's a reminder of how I want to live. Also, I think that stylistically, 'Brazen Girl' is a good example of the overall sound that I am striving for, a balanced mixture of acoustic and electronic elements. If someone had to listen to just one of my songs to get a sense of what my style is, I would want them to listen to 'Brazen Girl.' "
WHAT WAS YOUR MANIFESTO FOR THIS ALBUM?:
Lieberum – "I love albums that feel like a collection of short stories, where each song is unique lyrically and musically, but the album as a whole has some kind of cohesiveness. I love albums that give you the sense of having gone on a journey. That's what I attempt to do myself!"
WHAT'S YOUR GUT FEELING ON HOW YOUR ALBUM'S GOING TO DO?:
Lieberum – "To be honest, I really try to push that question out of my mind! I try and focus on writing and recording and pushing myself to create stronger work. If I sit and worry about whether or not people will buy the album, it will drive me crazy! I think that there is an audience for the music that I make, and hopefully through promotion and live gigs, the album will develop an audience beyond my initial Internet fan base."
YOUR PERSONAL MUSICAL HERO?:
Lieberum – "Vocally, I really admire singers that may not be technically perfect, but are able to express honest, raw emotion in a beautiful and surprising way. Nina Simone is a favorite singer of mine. She sings a version of the jazz standard 'He's Not the Man For Me,' kind of a silly song, with somewhat sappy lyrics. But Nina Simone's delivery of the song is just heartbreaking. I get teary-eyed every time I hear it. Lyrically, I love Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan and Neil Young. If I had to name one person as my No. 1 musical hero, I would have to say Sade. She is a great songwriter, and has a voice that is mesmerizing, emotionally true and utterly unique. Her music, although usually classified as 'soul,' is really beyond categorization. She is the kind of artist that has simply created her own sound from the ground up; she doesn't sound like anyone but herself. I think that Prince, during his heyday, also achieved that."
WHAT'S THE STATE OF THE MUSIC INDUSTRY?:
Lieberum – "I remain hopeful that smaller, innovative, creative, risk-taking, unique acts that don't fit perfectly into a specific genre of music will continue to be heard, even though they may not generate boy-band sales. I read an article in the L.A. Times Date Book recently about the state of the music business, where a record exec said, in regard to the artists of today, 'Where are the Neil Youngs? Where are the Joni Mitchells?' I am certain that they are out there, but they need your help! They need time and money and energy and patience. I doubt there are many artists who are going to put out a perfect, genius work of art on their first shot. It seems like the artists of a few decades ago really benefited from artist development and loyalty from their labels that today's artists don't get as often. I really admire labels that are willing to invest there energy into developing and nurturing new acts."

Vehicle Crossing
Corridor Access Request
 Within the Clutha District, roads are managed by two separate roading authorities. Transit New Zealand takes care of the State Highways, while Council maintains all other roads, known as local roads.
With a total roading network of 2916km, the Clutha District has the second largest local roading network in New Zealand. Of that 2916km, 27 % (776km) is sealed and 73% (2140km) is unsealed. Rural roads make up 95% of the total network.
However, roading assets we administer include more than just roads. There are also footpaths, bridges, streetlights and other assets that are associated with roads.
Main roading tasks include road, bridge and culvert maintenance and replacement; reforming and rehabilitating sealed roads; grading and metalling of unsealed roads; footpath maintenance and construction; seal extensions, car park maintenance and construction, street lighting and road safety engineering projects.
The majority of our roading activities are financially assisted by Land Transport New Zealand. For 2008/09 this is at a rate of 60% assistance. This means that local ratepayers have to fund 40% of the bulk of the costs of local roads. However, not all roading activities are eligible for financial assistance, for example, at the moment there is no assistance for footpath renewals and a majority of seal extensions.
Road works and road closures
Roads need to be closed for various reasons, but mainly for maintenance, construction work, and events.
To apply to have a road temporarily closed for an event contact Council. All current and planned road closures are listed in Council's Roading, Bridge and Water Notices webpage.
Road works can involve anything from minor work to fix a pot hole which takes only a few minutes to a major project to rebuild a section of road that has completely worn out.
To report a problem with road works or any damage or faults with a road contact Council.
Minor safety work
Every year Council does a range of small safety projects around the city. The Minor Safety Works Programme includes improving intersection visibility, installing roundabouts and speed cushions in residential streets to help address speed issues and putting in new pedestrian crossings and refuges. For more information on this programme contact Council.
Resealing
Resealing work ensures that city's road network remains safe, efficient and able to cope with the amount of traffic using it. Most resealing takes place in the summer months, excluding the busy Christmas and New Year period. Care is taken to try and minimise the impact on road users, but some disruption is inevitable.

Please visit our Brochures page for information about:

Roading Application Forms
Please visit out Forms & Guides Page for application forms relating to Roading and Transport - as of July 2018 this includes our new online forms which use the Submitica portal.
Dust Suppression
Following the 2016 Annual Plan process, there have been some changes to our dust suppression programme.
In 2015, people either applied to have dust suppressant put on their road or applied for a permit to do it themselves.
However, due to a policy change, residents can no longer use Council to apply the suppressant for them.
Instead, there are two options available:
Dust Suppression by Applicant - this allows residents to apply to Council for a permit to undertake dust suppression themselves or employ a contractor to undertake the work. Health and Safety requirements will need to be met prior to acceptance. An application form can be found on our Forms & Guides webpage. Below is a list of companies supplying dust suppression services:
Southern Bulk Transport (03 453 4690)
Semi-Permanent Seal - this allows residents to apply to have a semi-permanent seal applied to a section of road. This requires meeting certain criteria and a priority list has been developed to help carry out this process.
Having a semi-permanent seal applied to the road would be expected to last up to seven year. This could be more depending on traffic and weather conditions. This dust suppressant has very similar surface characteristics as a sealed road and will be maintained by Council once complete. The width of the suppressant will be determined by the width of the road.
If you meet the criteria, you are eligible for a 50% subsidy on 100 metre lengths, estimated cost ($8,625 including GST).
If you do not meet the criteria you can still get this suppression applied by paying the full amount.
Council has developed payment options for this scheme, which you are welcome to ask about.
Extracting Resources
If you intend to extract timber, gravel or other resources, then you may need to let Council know.
Why? The extraction of gravel, timber or other resources via road can have impacts on the road over and above what Council has anticipated. If you will generate more than 80 heavy vehicle movements in a month or 210 heavy vehicle movements in a year, then we need to know.
How? Before you plan to extract these resources, we need plenty of warning so that our roading engineers can assess the impact on roads that will be used. We require at least 18 months? notice and there is a Heavy Vehicle Impact Notice that you can complete and return to Council for this.
If you do not notify us 18 months before the activity and you are over the threshold for heavy vehicle movements, you will have to go through a resource consent process.
Failure to notify Council places other road users at risk and may result in roads being damaged beyond repair!
Tuapeka Mouth Ferry - The Punt
The punt will operating under winter hours which are 8-10am and 3-5pm.
The ferry normally operates daily: 8.00am to 10.00am and 4.00pm to 6.00pm subject to river conditions. However, in winter it operates from 8.00am - 10.00am and 3.00pm - 5.00pm. The ferry does not operate in the hours of darkness. The ferry does not operate on Good Friday, and Christmas day. It will be closed in the morning on ANZAC Day, reopening from 3-5pm.
There is no charge.
Sometimes due to variable river conditions, the punt may not be operating. Please contact Council on 0800 801 350 during office hours or 03 415 9068 to check.
The Tuapeka Ferry is a 25 minute drive from Lawrence, on the Tuapeka West Road to Balclutha, or 35 minutes from Balclutha on the Clutha Valley - Tuapeka Mouth Roads.
The Clutha River was first crossed by rowing boats until community agitation for the establishment of a punt at Tuapeka Mouth was successful in 1895. The Tuapeka Mouth ferry, also commonly referred to as the Tuapeka Mouth Punt, was officially opened on 22 February 1896. The punt is still operational today and operates on an established schedule when conditions are suitable.
Road and bridge closures
For all road and bridge closures please visit our road, bridge and water notices page.
Minor Accident Report Form
Council has a Minor Accident Report Form that lets us know When, Where and How the minor accident happened so we can investigate the condition of the road, and make sure it is safe for everyone to travel on.
This form is for tourists to fill in AND for locals, including those friendly locals that have helped out at minor incidents by pulling a car out of a ditch and helping someone get back on the road. Please remember if we don't know an accident has happened then we don't know to investigate the road surface, and repair if needed.
This is form is for our information only. Simply fill out the form, hand it back in at any of our service centres or email to help.desk@cluthadc.govt.nz
Do remember that if you are involved in a crash while driving, and you are not badly injured, the first thing you must do is stop and check to see if anyone is hurt and provide assistance. If someone is hurt, you must tell a police officer as soon as possible and no later than 24 hours after the crash.
If no one is hurt, you must give your name, address and vehicle registration (and, if asked, the name and address of the owner of the vehicle you are driving, if it isn't your vehicle) as soon as possible but no later than 48 hours after the crash to:
The owner or driver of any other vehicle that has been damaged
The owner of any property that has been damaged.
If you can't find these people, you must tell a police officer as soon as possible and no later than 60 hours after the crash.

2009/08/16, by Fred Wasserman – Out n' About
Music director/pianist: Vincent Falcone; electric bass: Chris Colangelo; drums: Kendall Kay; keyboards: Mark Hugenberger.
While strolling though his 8:00 p.m. Yoshi's Jazz Club opening night audience Friday, and singing to patrons, singer Jack Jones turned to an inebriated man who suddenly and rather sadly blurted,"please don't leave us", and the 71 year old Jones laughed and quipped "Did you hear what he said?! Listen, I'm trying as hard as anybody!!"
I attended all four shows.
Jones as usual was in superb voice, exhibited dazzling range and vocal control, along with unerring musicianship, and his well-established jazz instinct.
He was so good you just wanted to — hell, cry!
This appearance was a homecoming for Jack who has not appeared in the City for "over a decade" (more like two decades, actually).
He talked about being hired to sing in 1959 at Fack's II jazz club run by the venerable George Andros who actually attended the 8:00 p.m. show Saturday evening.
And how he was "discovered" and signed by Kapp Records (Pete King) and began singing hit records, the first in 1961 — Lollipops and Roses — by Tony Velona while Jones was in the Air Force Reserve.
From 1964 onward, following the release of his smash hit Grammy award-winning (now politically incorrect) "Wives and Lovers" record, Jones now proceeded to sing at the most elegant well-paid venue in San Francisco–the now long-shuttered (closed in 1982) Fairmont Hotel Venetian Room with a dazzling augmented 20+ piece orchestra with harp and strings.
He now sang to attractive, well-dressed, sophisticated wealthy audiences, and quickly earned admiration by a public literally in awe of his youth, well-groomed movie star good looks, confident, witty stage manner and above-all, his beautiful singing. He still amuses! First of all, he has this impish, innocent smile that he'll flash at an audience that is just delightful. Like a little kid.
He plunged into what one reviewer two years ago correctly referred to as a "daunting" 18-song show of carefully crafted ballads, standards and show tunes that he has made famous and deservedly so over the years.
Singing just doesn't get any better than this!
Whether ballads("There's A Place For Us" done in two keys, "What Are You Doing The Rest of Your Life" with a witty aside: "I want to see your face…. book…. in every kind of light!"; his famous "One At A Time" by Michel Legrand sung to the audience; a complex arrangement of "Not While I'm Around") , latin beats (his amusing new Latin version of his "Love Boat Theme" delighted), or "Baby, Baby Don't You Quit Now", a Jimmy Rowles/' Johnny Mercer sexy, slow swinging love song.
Jones excelled at everything, charming the house.
Working with a four-piece band led by pianist Vincent Falcone, with bassist Chris Colangelo, drummer Kendall Kay, and electric keyboardist Mark Hugenberger, Jones immediately established his credentials with his signature "I Am A Singer" solid rock ballad tribute to singers and their art, then jumped into his very jazz-like, complex fast swing "She Love Me"(riffing on both the melody and the rhythm).
He switched songs between sets.
At one point in the third show, a fragile elderly lady –an apparent friend of Jack's in first row center — loudly asked for his hit "Lollipops And Roses" near the end of the set, and he quickly switched and sang the song to the delight of everyone.
He added "Have You Met Miss Jones" for the third and fourth show which he wittily dedicated to his beautiful new wife Eleanora ("And we'll keep on meeting til we die, Mrs. Jones and I").
Welcome home, Jack Jones.

Q: android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatatypeMismatchException: datatype mismatch (code 20 SQLITE_MISMATCH) I have an issue with inserting data date into the database. I try to make the ID auto increment and the date is using datepicker. Is that other way can store the date into database or is that others wrong on my code?
Below is dbhelper.java

    };

This is the error that show
error

A: The datatype mismatch is quite specific you are trying to insert a value that is not an integer value into the rowid column or an alias of the rowid column

*

*INTEGER PRIMARY KEY (with or without AUTOINCREMENT) results in an alias of the rowid column.

According to public Boolean insertbudget(String id, String date) then you are passing a non-integer string.
You can eliminate this from happening by using public Boolean insertbudget(long id, String date) and then adjusting the code to suit (i.e. convert the string to long). The parse error that you will then get, should point to the real cause.
However, the simplest solution, would be to remove the line contentValues.put("id", id); SQLite will then assign an appropriate value. You could then adjust the method's signature as the id does not need to be passed. So you may wish to use :-
public Boolean insertbudget(String date)
{
    SQLiteDatabase DB = this.getWritableDatabase();
    ContentValues contentValues = new ContentValues();
    contentValues.put("date", date);
    return result=(DB.insert("Budget",null, contentValues) > 0);
}

NICE issues first biosimilar recommendation
Orphan status for child cancer drug
The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) said the Vidaza drug, used to treat patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), is too expensive to use: it costs around £45,000 a year per patient.
MDS is a disease whereby the bone marrow does not produce enough of one or more types of blood cell.
In around a third of all cases, patients develop acute myeloid leukaemia, a very aggressive form of cancer.
Tests carried out have shown that patients receiving conventional methods of treatment, such as chemotherapy, survive just 15 months.
But those who receive Vidaza survive for around 24.5 months.
NICE published its draft report on the use of the treatment earlier this month, but will reconsider following an appeal by the MDS UK Patient Support Group, the Leukaemia Society and the Rarer Cancers Forum, as well as Celgene, which manufactures the drug.

What Are TWAIN Printers?

Many all-in-one printer manufacturers tout their devices' TWAIN compatibility, even though TWAIN doesn't have much of anything to do with printing itself -- TWAIN is a technology for scanners and other image acquisition devices. However, because all-in-one printers include scanners, the TWAIN-compatible designation gets thrown into the mix with all of their other features.
Before the introduction of the TWAIN standard, every scanner communicated with computers using a proprietary system. This meant that you needed special software for each scanner and that every scanner maker had to make their own software. In 1992, the industry formed the TWAIN working group to create a standard that every scanner maker could share and use. This way, different scanners could have different capabilities and still be able to use the same underlying communication protocols. Since TWAIN is standardized, other software can also use it to interface with the scanner, letting you scan directly into documents in any TWAIN-compatible software.
As of May 2013, Epson, Hewlett-Packard and Kodak are all members of the organization responsible for the TWAIN standard. TWAIN also tracks Canon, Panasonic and Ricoh drivers that are compliant. However, just because a manufacturer isn't on TWAIN's list doesn't mean that it doesn't make TWAIN-compatible all-in-ones. For example, Brother, Dell and Lexmark all offer TWAIN drivers for their devices.
If you plan to network your all-in-one printer, TWAIN support is particularly valuable. Among other features, TWAIN includes the ability to control network scanners. This means that any computer on your network will be able to use a standardized driver to scan documents and to set the device's scanning parameters.
Other Printer Standards
While TWAIN isn't, technically, a printer standard, other printer standards include Apple's AirPrint, which lets iOS devices send print jobs to wireless printers without additional software or drivers. In addition, the ISO 24734 standard allows you to compare print speeds between different manufacturers. The ISO also created the 19752, 24711 and 19798 standards for cartridge lives that you can use to accurately compare your choices from various manufacturers.

Decoding the BJP victory
The BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi has scripted history by becoming the second political party in the Indian history to come back to power. BJP lead National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has won 303 seats and has improved its 2014 election performance with more than 50 percent. While observing the victory of BJP in a map, we can notice that BJP remains strong the strongest in the Hindi Belt. Though there are several reasons behind the victory, let us look at the some of the common ones.
Failures in UP
Strong alliance of SP-BSP combine failed to make a big impact in the important state of Uttar Pradesh. They managed to win only 15 seats in the state, while BJP led NDA won around 64 seats. Many believe internal reasons for the failure of the big alliance. SP's poor performance could be due to the improper vote transfer from the BSP. Moreover, the infighting in the Yadav clan and Shivpal Yadav's rebellion, poor distribution of tickets and the fact that the SP got a tougher lot of seats in the UP. When we look into the arithmetic reason, people voted against the BSP-SP combine. The total vote share of the SP and BSP dropped from 42.2 percent in 2014, to around 37.22 per cent in 2019 Lok Sabha election.
Lack of strong alliance
Principal opposition party Congress failed to make strong alliances with regional parties. The party leadership over estimated the victory achieved in the three states (Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chattisgrah). Even in Delhi, it fielded its own candidates against Aam Aadmi Party, which had won local elections there in 2018, as a result it split the opposition vote. While Aam Aadmi Party also failed to defeat the BJP, which won all seats in Delhi. In the same way, Gandhi himself took a seat from the Left Democratic Front (LDF) in Kerala. One of the biggest loss was from West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh, Congress didn't side with the strong regional parties (SP-BSP), once again it splitted the non-BJP vote among the opposition parties.
Inability to project clear vision
Congress party always relied on threats on secular values, Rafale deal and schemes from BJP. But the BJP and PM Modi's narrative were a new and strong with a clear agenda of power and corrupt free India. It gave the people credibility and vision which appealed to many voters through out north India. It delivered a clear goal of what BJP was promising, and one that citizens were fast to embrace. Congress never presented a clear agenda and goal for the entire country. Even when the Congress proposed new policy that could have appealed to a large electorate— for instance, guaranteed minimum income of Rs 72,000 a year received much attention, but it was less attractive for the people.
Inability to replicate strategies Southern Parties
In the Southern States, barring Karnataka, BJP could not gain much seats like in West Bengal and Odisha. BJP amd Hindutva could not understand the linguistic, political, historical and cultural factors of the Tamil Nadu and Kerala. In Tamil Nadu, where Dravidian politics had strongly entrenched itself as a counter to big forces, slapped the the BJP yet again. Followed by defeat in Kerala. Congress failed to follow the southern parties model of strategies.
Securing the second term also means the BJP should correct its mistakes. Gaining the trust of all citizens will be a necessary prerequisite for new BJP government and Modi to drive India's growth in all sector and attain the journey as a global power. It is only reasonable thing the common man expects from new government who had continously said 'sabka saath, sabka vikas (with all, development for all)'.
