Kapitan Sowa na tropie – pierwszy polski serial kryminalny, wyreżyserowany przez Stanisława Bareję.

Fabuła
Produkcja była anonsowana jako pierwszy polski seryjny film kryminalny.

Opowiada losy kapitana milicji obywatelskiej, Tomasza Sowy, który rozwiązuje zagadki kryminalne. Każdy odcinek to inna sprawa, której błyskotliwe rozwiązanie znajduje Sowa. Poszczególne odcinki serialu łączy osoba kapitana Sowy i jego pomocnika, Albina, oraz ich wspólna chęć walki z nałogiem tytoniowym.

Zdjęcia plenerowe zostały zrealizowane w Łodzi.

Po wielu latach grający jedną z głównych ról aktor Michał Szewczyk ujawnił, że serial planowany był na 42 odcinki, ale po nakręceniu ośmiu grający kapitana Sowę Wiesław Gołas i on sam odmówili dalszej gry w serialu, gdyż nie podobały im się scenariusze, pozbawione dynamicznej i żywej akcji.

PER-APP-DPI/LAYOUT. This is not tablet mode! Hybrid engine allows you to target apps individually. You get to pick their actual layouts which can tranform content drastically. Keep in mind, this has nothing to do with build.prop hacks or DPI changes. We list all layouts an app brings, you choose one, its as easy as that. It does not matter if your device runs itself in Phone-, Phablet or Tablet-UI, your apps will always look as you like. On top of that you can scale apps, to fit your screen, that way you can even bring full fledged tablet apps and make them run perfectly. Nothing will break, nothing will shrink, your market will be fine. Additionally we have rewritten many parts of the android framework and fixed countless of AOSP bugs to make way for these modifications - our "tablet mode" runs better on a phone than on a real tablet, that is guaranteed.
PER-APP-COLOR, Paranoidandroids newest invention. Define apps in your regular hybrid panel. See your phone fade into the color definition of your current app, press home or go elsewhere and it fades back. Create as many combinations you like, you can even dabble with opacity. This feature is made possible by our hybrid engine, which is unique to this rom.
RECOVERY: FACTORY RESET IF YOU WERE USING ANOTHER ROM!
1. Try everything you can, find solutions for yourself. Wipe caches, revert all your settings you have made, go back to your stock Kernel, factory reset if you have to or reflash the rom. Assume that the issue is on your side and try your best to isolate it.
2. Search this thread and Cyanogenmods aswell (its our base) for possible reoccurences of your issue and hopefully solutions that may have come up.
… collect evidence, keep in mind this is a developer thread so even if you are not one, do us the favor and research how to record logcat. logcat is the single most important help you can give us to resolve your issue.

Distance between Brossard and Granby. How many miles from Brossard to Granby.
The straight distance between Brossard (Quebec) and Granby (Quebec) is 36.51 mi, but the driving distance is 44.39 mi.
It takes 51 mins to go from Brossard to Granby.


This interactive board game offers action and adventure as Asterix and his friends journey around the Roman Empire on a challenge from Caesar while learning about different countries' history and culture. You can play as various characters including Asterix, Obelix, Impedimenta, Panacea, Justforkix and Geriatrix. You have to collect souvenirs from various places as proof you've been there, and then get back to your village in time or else Caesar will win. It allows for up to 4 players or you can play against the computer. The game track has 54 squares that can be landed on which represent countries, challenges, prisons, magic potions, traps, rest, and meeting character opportunities.
The druid Getafix is host and will hand out magic potion flasks to players (except Obelix who, as fans of the comics know, fell into a potion when he was very young). You can acquire some interesting gadgets from the druid-spy Dubbelosix, that will help you move more quickly. To win the recquired souvenir items, you have to either answer the questions asked in the country squares or buy them from the Phoenician merchant Ekonomikrisis with sestertii won in challenge squares. The scoundrel Tortuous Convolvulus will also try to impede the players progress, so look out.


Here they are, wanting to talk music and business, but all anyone wants to perpetuate is that old controversy.Both are 34 years old now, and both are different characters.
So Solid Crew were, quite literally, one of the biggest garage groups in the early noughties, with up to thirty members at any one time.Their break-through track was in August 2001, with the number one hit '21 Seconds' - the time each member had on the mic. Spend time in their company and they won't let you leave until they have convinced you that they have been to the UK garage scene what The Beatles were to pop.It is true, certainly, that they made quite an impact, and threw open the doors for the UK urban scene in general, but the truth is we do need reminding.They had released just two albums – 2001's They Don't Know (which sold 450,000 copies) and 2003's 2nd Verse (25,000 copies).
By then, each of the main MCs had individual public profiles. "So Solid was always about bringing new talent up – the next generation," he explains.Megaman is brooding, almost menacing; Harvey is a human firework, constantly going off. We just lived by basic rules, like anybody else: we defended ourselves when we had to." Perhaps, yes, but they weren't always merely defending themselves."Thing is, yeah," says Harvey, "we come from struggle. One member, for example, Skat D, was once arrested for allegedly breaking the jaw of a 16-year-old fan who spurned his sexual advances; another, Asher D (now Ashley Walters, one of the UK's most promising actors) was imprisoned for firearms possession.He then appeared in reality TV shows including The rapper still performs, and has made multiple appearances with Lisa.Back in 2001, at the height of So Solid, Asher D was found to be carrying a loaded air pistol modified to fire live ammunition, and sentenced to 18 months in a young offender institute.Half an hour later , Wiki Leaks begins to release several thousand hacked emails from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta.

Fascinating historical review of Lutheranism in the US. Many years ago read Lutheranism in North America by Nelson. This adds more and gives some insight into Lutheranism in Colonial America. It also tries to show how Lutherans transitioned into an America church body and then the attempts to unite all Lutherans into one church s: We trace our roots back through the midth century, when early Lutherans came to America from Europe, settling in the Virgin Islands and the area that is now known as New York.
Even before that, Martin Luther sought reform for the church in the 16th century, laying the framework for our beliefs. There are something like –4 million American Lutheran-identifiers who are not formally part of any church.
That's about or % of the national population. Summary. Lutherans are one branch of Protestant Christianity and have been in America for almost years. Historically they have immigrated to America from Lutheran countries in Europe, especially Germany and Scandinavia.

Lutheranism - Lutheranism - History: Inwhen Martin Luther probed the church practices surrounding indulgences (the full or partial grant of the remission of the penalties of sin) with his Ninety-five Theses (the various propositions that Luther wished to debate—posted, according to tradition, on the church doors in Wittenberg), he had no intention of breaking from the Catholic church, assuming.

The Letter – game review
The Letter preys upon the human response to suspense, darkness, and the unknown. Spoiler alert – there's nothing there. Like literally, nothing there. Nothing. Nothing at all. Trust me, I looked. Nothing.
Developer/Publisher: TreeFall Studios/Eli Brewer
Platforms: Wii U
Players: Single Player Only
Taking generous inspiration from the psychological horror genre of games (think Slender), and mixing in a story, The Letter takes a great idea… and doesn't do very much at all. Story-wise, you take control of Michael Kennedy – the son of Taylor James Kennedy – who finds a letter from his father who is on the verge of death. He informs him of shady happenings at the construction site where Michael works. Despite his father's plea that he stay away from his job site, Michael proceeds anyway finding more clues suggesting his father was murdered.
The game is played from first-person view and takes place almost entirely in the dark with the only light coming from Michael's flashlight. In some levels it is the only way to see anything. To proceed from one level to the next, the player must find a series of items listed at the beginning of the level.
The game really doesn't offer much of a challenge. There are no enemies nor a timer, just vaguely identified objects strewn about other objects. There are only about 5 levels in the whole game and not much else. Various sources have claimed first play-through s took about 20 minutes but replays could be done in less than 10 just from memory. For what it's worth, playing it through the first time can be a bit of a thrill wandering around in the dark expecting something to happen but there's not much for replay.
The game also lacks an inventory menu, the ability to pause, and does not have off-TV despite advertising so. It also has inverted view controls which can be troublesome to those not used to it. Updates are rolling in here and there but there is a lot of ground to make up for.
Despite the very short game play, the visuals are decent. Although bare, what is in the game looks okay, albeit a bit blocky including objects strewn about the surrounding environments. The music is arguably the best the game has to offer and is reminiscent of songs from Goldeneye 007 for the N64. With that note, it makes me wonder if this game could have been recreated on the N64 with the same results as The Letter does not even come close to utilizing what power the Wii U has to offer.
Did I mention that by the time I got around to playing it, it had received an update? I played version 1.1 which apparently was an improvement from the initial release. Now, I'm all for progress and letting something grow in hopes of improvement, but it would take a lot of updating for the game to earn it's worth. I would not be quick to pay $1.99 for such a shallow title but I won't stop you if you want to check it out.
I'm trying not to be mean here. There is potential in The Letter, it's just that this game was released a few years premature considering what it could have been. I wish Treefall Studios the best of luck with their future endeavors, but I hope they come up with more than just a demo next time.

LEXINGTON, KY - Blood-Horse Publications, a multimedia publishing company that traces its roots to 1916, announces that Jim Cox will succeed Greg Medley as advertising director effective January 1, 2004. Medley is leaving the Blood-Horse Publications family after 19 years of outstanding service to pursue a family business opportunity in Arizona.
Cox, 43, has been research director for Blood-Horse Publications since 1998, overseeing a variety of industry services, including The Blood-Horse Stallion Register, Auction Edge, The Blood-Horse Source and The Horse Source, and The Blood-Horse Professional Package of supplements. Cox's present duties also include overseeing statistical sections of The Blood-Horse magazine including the sire lists, stakes shells, additional stakes, and newcomers.
"We couldn't have hoped for a stronger candidate or a smoother transition," noted Stacy V. Bearse, President and CEO of Blood-Horse Publications, "Greg and Jim have worked very closely for many years and have developed a remarkable synergy. Greg is a true leader. We will miss his ideas, his humor, and his dedication to our company, industry and community. But he leaves us on a high note, and we wish Greg, Suzie, and the kids health and happiness in the future."
Ray Paulick, Executive Vice President of Blood-Horse Publications, commented, "Jim is largely responsible for two of the company's most important new products: the Auction Edge catalogue supplement, and the soon to be launched Online Stallion Register. His work on both projects showed tremendous leadership and innovation."
Prior to becoming research director for Blood-Horse Publications, Cox worked for Fasig-Tipton Sales Company, Thoroughbred of California magazine, Pope Advertising Agency, Saybrook Advertising Agency, Thoroughbred Times, The Cornett Group Advertising Agency, and Thorough-Graphic Sign Company. Cox and his wife Dana have one daughter, Annie, and reside in Midway, Kentucky.

    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:text="Forget password?"
    android:autoLink="all"
    android:linksClickable="true"
    android:textColor="@color/lgreen"
    android:textStyle="italic"
     />

Android is highlighting the links in the TextView, but they do not respond to clicks. Can someone tell me how can i do that as a clickable and move to another link.
i tried more times by seeing examples. but i can't. Can some one explain me clearly how to change text view as a clickable link.

A: In the string file put this code
<string name="link">'ForGet Password'</string>

and in the XML file
android:text="@string/link"

A: All tested and working 100%
below is a complete example
Solution: android:autoLink="web"
Sample Xml:
<TextView
    android:id="@+id/txtLostpassword"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:autoLink="email"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:padding="20px"
    android:text="@string/lostpassword"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" />

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/txtLostpassword"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:autoLink="web"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:padding="20px"
    android:text="@string/defaultpassword"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" />

String in string.xml
<string name="lostpassword">If you lost your password please contact support@cleverfinger.com.au</string>

<string name="defaultpassword">User Guide http://www.cleverfinger.com.au/user-guide/</string>

A: this is the most easy and understandable code
TextView link = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.hyper);
String linkText = "This is my website Programondaspot .";
link.setText(Html.fromHtml(linkText));
link.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());

Check out this post!
HAPPY CODING!

A: In your onCreate() method put this code:
TextView clickableTextLink = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.your_textview_id); clickableTextLink.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());

I tried a number of solutions. But this worked perfectly for me.

A: this is the EDITED answer
Hi you can try by replacing this in you layout.xml file
<TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:text="visit the site at www.google.com from here"
    android:autoLink="all"
    android:clickable="true"
    android:linksClickable="true"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />

I have tried it and it will surely work. and treats "www.google.com" as web link

A: You can add click listener to TextView and start websearch:
textView.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View view)
    {
         Intent browser= new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(PASTE_YOUR_URL_HERE));
         startActivity(browser);
    }

});

and xml looks like:
<TextView
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/link_string"
    android:textSize="14dp"
    android:autoLink="web" />

A: Just add onClick tag to your TextView which equals the defined function. Just as below
<TextView
  android:id="@+id/link"
  android:layout_width="wrap_content"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
  android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
  android:text="Forget password?"
  android:autoLink="all"
  android:linksClickable="true"
  android:textColor="@color/lgreen"
  android:textStyle="italic"
  android:onClick="callFunction"/>

A: Here is simple implementation tested up to Android N
    String termsText = "By registering, you are agree to our";
    String termsLink = " Terms of Service";
    String privacyLink = " and our Privacy Policy";
    String allText = termsText + termsLink + privacyLink;

    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
        ((TextView) findViewById(R.id.text_terms_conditions)).setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
        ((TextView) findViewById(R.id.text_terms_conditions)).setText(Html.fromHtml(allText, Html.FROM_HTML_MODE_LEGACY));
    } else {
        ((TextView) findViewById(R.id.text_terms_conditions)).setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
        ((TextView) findViewById(R.id.text_terms_conditions)).setText(Html.fromHtml(allText));
    }

Immersive Sound Experience with Ultimate Ears Portable Speakers!!
Do you enjoy a voluminous, rythymic and harmoniously clear music experience? Are you looking for amazing quality with crisp sound and stunning clarity? Then you need to check out the Ultimate Ears MEGABLAST and BLAST portable speakers available at Best Buy right now! Play your favorite music with this Ultimate Ears MEGABLAST wireless speaker. It lets you make voice commands via Amazon Alexa within its 330-ft Wi-Fi range, and Bluetooth connectivity lets it pair with up to eight compatible devices. The MegaBlast is Ultimate Ears most powerful speaker with stunning clarity and deep, heart-pounding bass, brings music to life. This rugged, water-resistant wireless speaker withstands drops from up to 3 ft high. Enjoy up to 16 hours with a large built-in battery. Play and charge the speaker simultaneously using the optional cradle or included wall charger. You can also ask Alexa to blast tunes, discover new music, crank the volume, or discover new restaurants.
The Ultimate Ears BLAST portable speaker allows you to take hands-free mobile calls and play great music. This water-resistant Ultimate Ears BLAST wireless speaker delivers 360-degree immersive sound for up to 12 hours on a single charge.

The water-resistant and dust proof design make this the perfect device to use outside at pool parties, graduation parties, bbqs, picnics, or at the beach. My biggest concern in the past with taking quality speakers to the beach or to the pool, was that they might get wet, damp, sand in the cracks, or some sort of damage jeopardizing the integrity of the speaker. But the Ultimate Ears MEGABLAST AND BLAST portable speakers were designed and tested against these very elements to ensure they could withstand the stresses of everyday life, inside or outside, while still maintaining the best possible sound quality.
Enhanced Controls on the Ultimate Ears App– You can now control volume remotely from the app, which is especially useful if you have your music cranked up loud and want to use Alexa. You can also check the battery status in one of two ways- either through the app, or right from the speaker by pressing the "+/-" volume buttons simultaneously. Starting in May, you can personalize your sound for any artist or music genre with custom equalizer (EQ). For example, if you're listening to some Hip Hop and want some earth shattering bass- customize it. If you're listening to some R&B and want some clear, clean vocals- customize it.
New Grouping Experience for smart speakers (coming soon)- You can group up to eight MEGABLAST or BLAST speakers on Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Stereo mode is supported when you connect two MEGABLAST or BLAST speakers. Optimized to take advantage of the speakers built-in Wi-Fi capability, you will experience greater range for grouped speakers and improved connection reliability. Grouping is expected to be available later this year.

Once Upon a Time in the West: The Original Soundtrack Recording is a soundtrack composed by Ennio Morricone, from the 1968 western film of the same name directed by Sergio Leone, released in 1972. The film score sold about 10 million copies worldwide.

The soundtrack features leitmotifs that relate to each of the main characters of the film (each with their own theme music), as well as to the spirit of the American West. The theme music for Jill McBain, Claudia Cardinale's character, has wordless vocals by Italian singer Edda Dell'Orso.

It was Leone's desire to have the music available and played during filming. Leone had Morricone compose the score before shooting started and would play the music in the background for the actors on set.

In 2018, for the 50th anniversary of the film, the Italian records company "Beat Records" released a limited 500 copies edition.

Setting up Utilities in Pulaski County
United States Arkansas Little Rock
All Little Rock
By Amanda Galiano
Most utilities require a photo ID. You also must provide most utilities with a social security number and a credit release. Some require a signed closing letter or statement of lease. A statement of good status from your previous utility provider can be helpful for waving deposits.
You might also want to checkout the newcomers guide for more helpful relocation tips.
Water and Sewage:
Most central Arkansas water is provided by Central Arkansas Water (CAW), which also does the billing for Little Rock Wastewater. To initiate service, call 501-372-5161. A deposit is required. You must be present when the meter is turned on, or you can turn on the meter yourself (they have instructions). There is a $15 activation fee. The deposit is equal to approximately a two-month average bill. Deposits can be waived for people with good credit who sign-up for automatic billing and are refunded after 12 months of on-time payments.
CAW has an informative website.
Jacksonville and Maumelle have their own water companies. For Jacksonsville call 501-982-0581. For Maumelle, call 501-851-3077
Centerpoint provides natural gas to most customers in Little Rock. To initiate service, call 1-800-992-7552 or fill out a form online. In some cases, deposits of twice the expected monthly service fee are required. There is an activation fee of $37.
Entergy provides most of the electricity for Central Arkansas. To setup service, you can fill out an online form or call 1-800-368-3749. The deposit required is $215.
For North Little Rock, North Little Rock Electric Department provides some service. Call 501-975-8888. Their deposit is $100.
AT&T provides landline telephones to Little Rock. To set-up new service, call 1-800-464-7928. Installation is $45, but prices can vary depending on the home's current setup.
Cable, Broadband and Television:
Central Arkansas has several options for cable and Internet. The two most common choices are Comcast Cable Xfinity (which also provides broadband Internet) and AT&T U-Verse (which can be bundled with TV, Internet and phone). To setup service with ATT, visit their website or call 1-800-288-2020 (not all options will be available in all locations). To set up service with Comcast, visit their website or call 1-800-934-6489.
Other options are Suddenlink (Internet and television) and Windstream (Internet only). Fidelity Cable (Internet and television) is also available in some cities (and it's the only cable choice in a few cities in central Arkansas).
Trash and Recycling:
You don't have to setup trash services, but it can be helpful to familiarize yourself with schedules and holidays. Here are the websites for the local solid waste departments.

Hot Topic in the Law: Earned Sick Time Act
On September 5, 2018, the Michigan Senate and House of Representatives passed the Earned Sick Time Act, MCL 408.963. However, shortly after the election, the Legislature substantially amended the Act and renamed it the "Paid Sick Leave Act." (The "Amended Act"). The Amended Act is expected to take effect on the 91st day after the final adjournment of the 2018 legislative session.
In response to the Amended Act, employers may need to change their leave of absence policies and procedures, their employee handbooks, and their employment contracts in order to comply with the law.
Beginning April 1, 2019, employers must provide employees paid sick leave for an employee's personal health needs, a family member's health needs, or during the closure of the employee's primary worksite by order of a public official due to a public health emergency. However, certain employees, including but not limited to: employees exempt from FSLA overtime, union employees, employees who work primarily outside of Michigan, temporary employees (who work less than 25 hours per week), and part-time employees who work fewer than 25 hours per week); and "variable hour" employees are excluded from the benefits of the Amended Act.
The Amended Act caps the required annual paid medical leave to 40 hours per year. Employers subject to the Act now have two options for providing paid medical leave:
Permit accrual of paid medical leave at the rate of at least 1 hour of paid leave for every 35 hours worked. (Capped at no more than 1 hour of accrual per calendar week or more than 40 hours of accrual per benefit year); or
Provide 40 hours of accrued medical leave at the beginning of the benefit year.
Under Option 1, unused paid medical leave is carried over from year to year, but each employee is limited to the use of 40 hours per year.
Under Option 2, the time does not carry over from year to year.
An employer may require an employee hired after April 1, 2019 to wait until the ninetieth calendar day after commencing employment before using accrued earned sick time.
Employers that have a paid leave policy in place that provides leave in at least the same amounts of paid leave as required by the Act are likely in compliance with the Act.
The Amended Act includes a rebuttable presumption that the employer is in compliance with the Act if the employer provides 40 hours of paid leave to an eligible employee each year.
There is no universal solution to meet the requirements of the Amended Act. At minimum, covered employers should adopt a paid medical leave policy for eligible employees that complies with the laws new requirements.
If you have a question regarding the Paid Sick Leave Act, please contact Nancy K. Chinonis, employment attorney, at Cline, Cline & Griffin, P.C. (810)-232-3141.

Manas Ordo. The history of the Talas tourist complex dedicated to Manas began in Soviet times. So, Soviet archeologists and historians actively worked in this area in the 30-40s. 20th century, exploring and reconstructing Manasa Gumbez, one of the unique historical and architectural monuments on the territory of Central Asia. In 1976, a state museum was created here, called the "Literary-Ethnographic Museum of the Manas Epos". During the active restructuring, in 1990, it was transformed into the state museum-reserve "Manas".
After 5 years, in 1995, the already sovereign and independent Kyrgyz Republic, under the auspices of UNESCO, widely celebrated the 1000th anniversary of the Manas epic, which was one of the important events of the first years of the country's independence. It was during the preparation for this festival that the territory of the museum was radically rebuilt. In 1996, the museum-reserve was transformed into the Talas regional complex "Manas-Ordo", and after 5 years, in 2001, the complex receives the national level.
The natural park "Besh-Tash" is located south of Talas on the northern slopes of Talas Ala-Too and includes the gorges: Kolba, Besh-Tash, Urmaral and Kumush-Tag with branches. In these gorges, rivers of the same name flow with a widespread network of tributaries. The territory is cut by deep ravines. Summer gorges look very beautiful. Juniper thickets are scattered along the slopes. In the upper reaches of the gorges on the right slopes there are light forests of spruce and juniper. Bright green alpine meadows begin above the forest-meadow zone. In this zone there is a cool breath of glaciers. In the ridge of the ridge lies the Chiyim-Tash Pass (3575 m), which connects the Urmaral basin with the Kara-Kuldzhi and Chatkal valleys.
In 1996, a natural park was established in the Talas district on an area of 32,411 hectares in order to preserve unique natural forests and high-mountain meadows. Flora is represented by more than 800 species of flowering plants, of which 28 are woody and shrub species. Of the representatives of the Red Book here live leopard, lynx Turkestan, golden eagle, Kumai, Saker Falcon, bearded man. The Besh-Tash river flows through the park, where rainbow trout is found. At an altitude of 2997 m, the elongated moraine-dammed lake Beshtash was 28 m deep, with an area of 0.5 square meters. km The water in it is turquoise. In the Besh-Tash gorge, beautiful forests of Tien-Shan spruce with an admixture of Semenov fir have been preserved.
The word "abad" means "habitable, auspicious place" and is often added to the name of the person who founded the city.
It is believed that Jalal-Abad was named after Jalal-ad-Din, who built several caravan-sheds to serve travelers, mainly pilgrims, who came to visit the sacred nature of this region.
The green abundance of rare tree species, vast areas of fruit and nut forests in the valley of the Arslanbob river, a fantastic lake in the shape of a bowl – Sary-Chelek make this region a truly green paradise of Kyrgyzstan.

Galatians - Concordia Commentary
by A. Andrew Das
Professional Discount Restrictions
Dr. Das shares Paul's fiercely passionate letter to the Galatians and offers a glimpse into the reception of the word in the early church in his Concordia Commentary on Galatians.
In this Volume
"Oh foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you?" (Galatians 3:1) Paul's fierce letter to the Galatians offers a glimpse into the early church and some of the congregational dramas in the face of incipient heresies. Rev. Dr. Andrew Das guides readers through the text and history of interpretation of this epistle. He gives particular attention to the Galatians struggle to faithfully integrate the Old Testament with the New, noting how Paul's rhetoric addresses the issues at hand both for the Galatians congregation and churches today. The length of this volume and the relative brevity of Galatians permit Das to include extended discussions of its exegetical challenges. Das has written the first faithfully Lutheran commentary that considers the full array of proposals from the "newer perspective" on Paul and the Law. He offers a trustworthy path through the controversies that will satisfy those searching for a viable solution to the impasse.

Andrew Das is the Donald W. and Betty J. Buik Chair at Elmhurst College. Dr. Das authoredSolving the Romans Debate (Fortress, 2007); Paul and the Jews (Hendrickson, 2003); Paul, the Law, and the Covenant (Hendrickson, 2001); and Baptized into God's Family (Northwestern, 1991; 2d ed., 2008). He coedited The Forgotten God (Westminster John Knox, 2002). His Grand Thematic Narratives of Galatians is forthcoming from Fortress.
He received his M.Div. from Concordia Theological Seminary and did his graduate work at Yale University, Duke University, and Union Theological Seminary in Virginia. He served as a pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church (LCMS) in Lombard, Ill., from 2000–2002 and assisted as a pastor at St. John's Lutheran in Lombard from 2002–2004.
"Andrew Das takes us systematically through each of the questions that scholars debate about this letter, which was born in controversy and which has been a focal point of controversy ever since. By the abundance of information he offers, clearly organized for our comprehension, he challenges us to join in the task of reconstructing that ancient controversy, and thus in the labor to understand what the text may, even now, mean."
—Dr. Wayne A. Meeks, Woolsey Professor Emeritus of Religious Studies, Yale University
"Massively researched with careful and clear exposition of the text and key critical issues: this will be an invaluable resource for all those grappling with Paul's presentation of his gospel in Galatians."
—Dr. Christopher Tuckett, Emeritus Professor of New Testament Studies, University of Oxford, England
The Concordia Commentary Series: A Theological Exposition of Sacred Scripture is written to enable pastors and teachers of the Word to proclaim the Gospel with greater insight, clarity, and faithfulness to the divine intent of the Biblical text.
The series will cover all the canonical books of the Old and New Testament, with an original translation and meticulous grammatical analysis of the Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek of each text. The foremost interpretive lens centers on the unified proclamation of the person and work of Christ across every Scriptural book.
The Commentary fully affirms the divine inspiration, inerrancy, and authority of Scripture; Each passage bears witness to the confession that God has reconciled the world to Himself through the incarnation, ministry, death, resurrection, and ascension of Christ His Son.
Authors expose the rich treasury of language, imagery, and thematic content of the Scripture, while supplementing their work with additional research in archaeology, history, and extrabiblical literature. Throughout, God's Word emanates from authors careful attention and inculcates the ongoing life of the Church in Word, Sacrament, and daily confession.

SDLP playing on people's fears in South Armagh
2 September, 2009 - by Westminster
Sinn Féin MP for Newry and Armagh Conor Murphy MP MLA has hit out at the SDLP playing on people's fears regarding the British Army returning to South Armagh.
Speaking today Mr Murphy said:
"For over 30 years the community here in South Armagh had to endure British Military occupation. Lands were stolen, communities were harassed and spy posts and other war apparatus blighted this area. It was only through hard work and strong negotiations that Sinn Féin secured the demilitarisation of these areas.
"At Weston Park a senior figure in the SDLP leadership proclaimed that demilitarisation was an issue only for Sinn Féin and the British government. Now we have the SDLP, who played no role in achieving an end to the British army's presence in South Armagh, playing on peoples worst fears to steal a headline.
"Let me be very clear about this. There is no role for the British army in South Armagh. I know that as well as the SDLP and they need to realise that the nationalist community would not tolerate such a move."

These days, France is not a particularly good place to be a Jew. The country that gave us the Dreyfus Trial in 1894 and the round up of Jews at the Vélodrome d'Hiver in 1942 has been the scene of some terrible acts of violence against Jews in the 21st Century. In 2006, the world witnessed the murder of Ilan Halimi, the Toulouse and Montaban killings in 2012, and anti-Jewish riots in 2014. In 2015, the world witnessed the Hypercacher massacre and in 2017 the murder of Sarah Halimi. All this violence bespeaks of a breakdown in French society, a breakdown that is causing many Jews to leave the country and immigrate to Israel.
Once French-born Jews make it to Israel, France's fecklessness follows them. In particular, France provides diplomatic cover to anti-Israel activists affiliated with the World Council of Churches (WCC), an ecumenical Christian institution with a sad history of being soft on Communism and more recently, jihadism, going so far as to obstruct efforts to address antisemitism at the UN's anti-racism conference in Durban in 2001.
In particular, the French government provides diplomatic cover to the Ecumenical Accompaniment Program in Palestine/Israel (EAPPI) in the compound of St. Anne's Church located in the Muslim Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem. The property was given to France by the Ottoman Empire to the French government in 1856 in gratitude for assistance given during the Crimean War. The church is managed by The Missionaries of Africa, sometimes called "The White Fathers," a Catholic missionary organization established in 1868 with the goal of converting Arabs to Christianity.
Behind a stone wall and a sign telling people to keep out is a parking lot and a group of office buildings that houses the EAPPI and another WCC-supported institution, the Jerusalem Interchurch Center (JICC). By virtue of its presence in the St. Anne's compound, EAPPI enjoys diplomatic refuge from Israeli law enforcement. Because the church is the property of the French state, Israeli police cannot enter into the property without permission from the French government. To underscore French sovereignty over the site, a French flag flies over the property.
French protection for EAPPI at St. Anne's Church came under public scrutiny in 2016 when the Christian Empowerment Council (CEC) wrote a letter to the French Ambassador to Israel about the protection afforded to the activist organization.
Apparently, no one in France's diplomatic corps wants to talk about who made the decision to allow the EAPPI to take up residence at St. Anne's in Jerusalem — nor does anyone in the religious community that manages the site. Email inquiries to the Missionaries to Africa in Jerusalem and to French diplomats in Washington, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem yielded no response. An official working for Missionaries of Africa in Washington, D.C. referred all inquiries back to the monastery in Jerusalem, which had already failed to respond to inquiries.
In order to understand why EAPPI's presence at St. Anne's is so controversial, it's necessary to know something about the organization's background.
Established by the World Council of Churches during the Second Intifada at the request of the Heads of Churches in Jerusalem, EAPPI sends activists into Israel from around the world ostensibly to stand in solidarity with Palestinians during confrontations with Israeli soldiers and with Israeli civilians who live in communities in the West Bank.
The stated goal is to reduce violence and human suffering. According to NGO Monitor, an organization that documents the role non-profits play in the propaganda war against Israel, funding for EAPPI is provided by a number of sources, including the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Canadian government (through UNICEF) and the Catholic Agency for Overseas Development.
EAPPI has come under intense criticism (some of it written by this writer) from groups like the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting, NGO Monitor and others who accuse the organization's activists of using the confrontations between Israelis and Palestinians as opportunities to obtain images of Israelis behaving badly and then using these images to broadcast an anti-Zionist propaganda to Christians throughout the world.
The article did not say exactly what countries should have their websites hacked, but the context made it clear that the article was encouraging people to hack Israeli government sites.
In practical terms, this means ignoring issues of anti-Jewish or anti-Israel incitement in Palestinian society while focusing intensely on Israel's alleged misdeeds.
Broadcasting this narrative is a huge part of the EAPPI agenda. Applicants who want to serve as EAPPI activists are asked to tell the WCC how skilled they are with the use of digital and video cameras and at transferring photos and other data between devices. Moreover, they are asked if they belong to church-related, ecumenical, faith-based or civil society networks that can be used to "assist in advocacy work during and after" their service as accompaniers.
When their service in Israel and the West Bank is over, EAs go home and engage in a lot of anti-Israel activism, reports Itai Reuveni, a researcher with NGO-Monitor. Their audiences believe them because they can say, "I was there," Reuveni reports.
Israelis have long been concerned about EAPPI's activism outside of the Holy Land, but in recent years, there has been increased attention devoted to the organization's actions inside the state. One Israeli activist, who has asked to remain anonymous to prevent his identity from being ascertained by Palestinians who may seek to harm or intimidate him, began shadowing EAs in 2015 after witnessing their behavior near his home in the West Bank in 2015.
He asserts that EAPPI activists do not tell the truth to security officials about their intended activities when they enter the country. Moreover, he claims that EAPPI activists ignore Palestinian violence during confrontations in the West Bank.
EAPPI activists ignore this Palestinian violence, he concludes, because such acts do not fit in with their goal of gathering images of Israelis behaving badly to be deployed in anti-Israel campaigns for use back home. It's hard to argue with the Israeli observer about this issue. Condemnations of Palestinian violence are few and far between in WCC and EAPPI messaging about the Israel-Palestinian conflict.
Activists from the organization, the source asserts, engage in political activism in violation of the terms of the tourist visas they use to get into the country. Israelis also complain that the organization's activists affiliate with radical groups such as International Solidarity Movement (ISM), Anarchists Against the Wall and Ta'ayoush, organizations that promote Palestinian propaganda, give Palestinian leaders a pass for their misdeeds, and thereby make it harder to achieve peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
He also reports that EAPPI activists sometimes disobey Israeli law by going into closed military areas in an attempt to prevent confrontations between Israelis and EAPPI activists.
In light of the concerns raised by this Israeli who has been closely monitoring the actions of EAPPI activists in Israel for the past few years and by researchers at NGO-Monitor, this writer, a researcher from the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America (CAMERA) who has written regularly for The Jerusalem Journal, concluded it was necessary to present these concerns to the WCC itself and seek a response. To that end, he sent a lengthy email asking for a response to Marianne Ejdersten, WCC's director of Communications on June 5, 2018.
Ejdersten responded to these questions with an email on June 8, 2018 and stated that if there were any more questions, she would answer them. A series of follow-up questions (which presented evidence and claims that served to contradict statements made in response to the first round of questions) were sent on June 11.
Ejdersten initially agreed to answer these questions, but on June 13, Peter Prove, Director of the WCC's Commission of the Churches on International Affairs sent an email saying that WCC staff was too busy preparing for an upcoming meeting of the WCC's Central Committee to be able to invest the time necessary to respond to the queries. "I suggest that you publish with the information you already have from us," he wrote.
After this, this writer obtained numerous images and some videos that document persistent interactions between EAPPI activists and a particularly aggressive Palestinian Activist, Hasan Breijieh. In 2016, Breijieh wrote a poem lauding the potential slaughter of Israelis (more about him below). Subsequent emails were sent in an effort to elicit a response from the WCC. The emails were sent on June 14, 2018 and a few hours after they were sent, the WCC said it was looking into the issue. When and if the WCC responds to these concerns, the organization's response will be posted.
It's not a one-time thing. The Jerusalem Journal has obtained photos of EAPPI activists protesting with Women in Black as late as 2016.
The WCC's denial that EAs engage in political activism in Israel, despite readily available evidence to the contrary, indicates that, at the very least, the left hand (at WCC's headquarters in Geneva) does not know what the right (in the Holy Land) is doing.
It raises a question: Just how much oversight does the WCC provide the EAPPI program?
This and other questions were put to the WCC in the second round of queries mentioned above, but unfortunately, the organization would not answer them.
Local churches that support EAPPI recruit, vet volunteers and train them for a few days and tell them how to get into the country before sending them to the Holy Land, reports Itai Reuveni, a researcher from NGO Monitor who pays close attention to the organziation. Reuveni reports that EAPPI activists do not come as a group into Israel, but as individuals who then connect with the folks at the Jerusalem Interchurch Center (JICC) led by Palestinian Christian Yusef Daher.
EAPPI's website describes the JICC as a "partner" and lists Daher as an ex-officio member of the "Local Reference Group" that "provides guidance, advice and support" to the EAPPI program.
In one Facebook posting, Daher invoked the prayers of Palestinian Christian terrorist George Habash who led the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), the group responsible for the 1972 Lod Airport Massacre which resulted in the death of 27 tourists.
Given his polemics, Daher is simply not the person reasonable people would want involved with a program ostensibly dedicated to "promoting a just peace" between Israelis and Palestinians, but the EAPPI openly acknowledges his involvement with its "peace" activism.
Sadly, there are indications that some EAs have followed Daher's example of using ugly polemics to demonize Israel. In 2016, the Jewish Chronicle reported on a public presentation offered by two former EAPPI activists in England. At the presentation, a former EA complained of a "Jewish lobby" while another EA promoted the website of "If Americans Knew," a group so hostile to Jews and Israel that Jewish Voice for Peace announced in 2015 that it would not work with it or its founder, Sara Weir, because of its affiliations with openly antisemitic groups in the United States.
The same source declares that the organization's activists come into Israel on tourist visas, fail to honestly inform customs officials as to why they are entering the country and then engage in political activism and confrontations with Israeli soldiers, police officers and even private security companies—all in direct violation of Israeli law regarding tourist visas, says the source.
"The volunteers simply lie when they come to Israel," he says, adding that some volunteers have overstayed their three-month visas and other times, they would go into Jordan for a few days and come back into the country on a new tourist visa. "I don't think that happens much any more, but from 2002 to 2016, they operated freely," he said.
The issue of activists associated with EAPPI using tourists visas to engage in political activism has been a growing point of conflict between the WCC and Israel.
In December 2016, Isabel Phiri, Associate General Secretary for the WCC, was denied entry into Israel. Haaretz reported that the written explanation given to Phiri for the decision was that she was refused entry "to prevent illegal immigration." The same article reports that a spokesperson for Israel's Public Security Minister stated that her denial was based on her role in promoting anti-Israel boycotts.
The issue has not gone away. In January 2018, Haaretz reported that an employee from a Norwegian aid group was denied access to Israel on the grounds that she "requested visas from volunteers under false pretenses." A newspaper in Norway reported that the employee was affiliated with EAPPI.
Because of events like this, some Israelis regard EAPPI with great suspicion. "The whole organization is premised on denying Israel's right to control its borders," says the activist who has been monitoring EAPPI's actions since 2015.
The issue of what Christian "peace" activists should say to Israeli immigration officials upon entering the Holy Land has been an issue for at least one other Christian organization.
In February 2012, the organizers of the Christ at the Checkpoint Conference (CATC), an anti-Zionist event sponsored by Bethlehem Bible College and which takes places every even-numbered year, instructed attendees to be less than forthcoming with Israeli officials at Ben Gurion Airport.
At the 2018 CATC conference, an organizer announced that the author of the email, a long-time activist from the United States affiliated with the United Methodist Church, had not been allowed back into the country to help Bethlehem Bible College prepare for the conference. No details were given as to why. An email inquiry to CATC conference spokesperson Munther Isaac received no response.
The Israeli source who started observing EAPPI activists after seeing them in action in an Arab village close to his home in the West Bank asserts that the organization's bias can be seen in how its activists respond to Arab violence against Israelis.
"We have a road from our village that goes to Efrat," he says, adding that the road crosses through the Arab village of Tuqu' which has two schools near the road where EAPPI activists sometimes gather. Students from the schools sometimes throw rocks at Israeli motorists who drive through the village and these incidents of rock-throwing prompt the IDF to chase and arrest the students.
"And sometimes they shoot tear gas in order to get the students away from the main road so they will not hit the cars," he said.
EAPPI activists cooperate with anarchist groups such as the International Solidarity Movement and sometimes enter into Jewish communities in the West Bank on Shabbat in hopes of provoking confrontations with Israeli Jews on their holy day, the Israeli critic of the organization reports.
The Israeli source is adamant that EAs have engaged in the confrontations he described. "Between April and May 2016, they came five times—Shabbat after Shabbat," he said, adding that after the first few confrontations, the IDF declared the communities where EAs were protesting as closed military areas in an effort to prevent violent confrontations between the accompaniers and people who live nearby.
In case there is any doubt about the authenticity of the video, Breijieh himself posted a video on his Facebook page of an ugly confrontation between Palestinians (including Breijieh) and Israelis living in the West Bank on May 7, 2016.
During the confrontation, which takes place with EAPPI activists standing nearby, Breijieh yelled at Israelis, telling them to leave their land. "You are illegal here," he screamed at an Israeli who came out to document his presence near his home. At no point during the video did an EAPPI activist seek to calm things down as Breijieh screamed at the Israeli.
At this point, it seems reasonable to ask, "Where is Jesus in all of this?" The WCC is, after all, ostensibly a Christian organization. Would Jesus stand in solidarity with a man who antagonizes and demonizes Jews the way Breijieh has or would he confront him over his hate and hostility? Are the EAs truly witnessing to the love of Christ as they "accompany" Breijieh as he screams at Israeli Jews? The EAS who accompany Breijieh cannot honestly describe themselves as "fools for Christ." They are fools for a violent national cause whose leaders have turned down numerous offers of statehood and who have deployed Jew-hatred as a way to stay in power. The EAs are definitely not fools for Christ. They are fools for grievance, hate and terror.
"Why this shyness on your face???
Your place is not here !!!
You came from behind the seas !!!!
But you chose to be a coward terrorist……….
Taken in context, the reference to William Wallace seems to convey the hope that the target of Breijieh's polemics will be murdered sometime in the near future. These is not the rhetoric of a non-violent activist for the Palestinian cause, but of what can more accurately be called a "war activist," or someone who tells a story to incite and/or legitimize violence in a conflict setting. Before readers dismiss this appelation out of hand, they have one embarassing fact to address: Counterpunch, a far-left publication, has described Breijieh as a spokesperson for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, which has been designated as a terrorist organization by the U.S. State Department.
Why are EAPPI activists associating with such a man? He openly incites violence against Israelis and yet WCC activists are accompanying him as he walks into Israeli communities on their Sabbath.
These are not the actions of a legitimate Christian peace organization.
Breijieh's involvement with EAPPI activists is not incidental. If you look at Breijiehs' Facebook page, you'll see numerous photos of him posing with EAPPI activists.
During the five confrontations that took place, EAPPI activists were present every time, the source said.
On this last point, that "ISM proclaims a commitment to non-violence in its work," it is fair to say the WCC is being obtuse.
The vests worn by EAPPI activists give them a false credibility when dealing with IDF and Israeli police that they do not deserve, the Israeli critic of EAPPI says. "It's the vests that give them an official look, but they're just tourists," he said.
We believe in a just and lasting settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through peaceful means and the end of the Israeli occupation of the West Bank including East Jerusalem and Gaza.
We are committed to principles of nonviolence.
We do not take sides in this conflict and we do not discriminate against anyone but we are not neutral in terms of principles of human rights and international humanitarian law.
We are committed to the principle and practice of promoting human rights through our work.
Our primary motivation is the alleviation of human suffering.
Our engagement in this conflict is conditional upon an invitation to engage by local actors such as the Churches, church-related organizations, Palestinian civil society and Israeli peace organizations.
We are committed to working in collaboration and in complementary ways with individuals, organizations, governments and other institutions which can contribute to the prevention and resolution of conflict and which work on human rights.
We make no discrimination on grounds of nationality, race, class or gender, sexual orientation, age, or religious, cultural and or political beliefs.
A close examination of these principles reveal they are not directly related to the behavior of accompaniers themselves and provide little if any guidance as to what type of behavior people can expect from EAPPI activists in the field.
"I think in some ways they feel they are superior and come here to teach us how to behave," the previously quoted Israeli activist asserts.
Rhetoric like this is not going to assuage EAPPI's critics in Israel who have started to inform their fellow Israelis about the group's antics in the Holy Land.
All this brings us back to France's willingness to allow EAPPI to use St. Anne's Church as its headquarters.
By allowing EAPPI to take up residence at St. Anne's Church, France is providing diplomatic cover to an organization that apparently facilitates the violation of Israeli law regarding who it lets cross its borders. This same organization facilitates and gives cover to the harassment of Israeli Jews by Palestinians in the West Bank. In other words, France, a country that can't project sovereign power and authority into growing sections of its own territory, is giving aid and comfort to Palestinian efforts to undermine the sovereignty of the Jewish homeland.
That doesn't seem right. Not one bit.
