"Bruce?" Bruce who? Bruce Wayne? No wonder you never see him and the Hulk together! This, obviously, is the figure that was pre-painted for the SDCC box set, and is functionally identical - just green instead of red. He has the same flat hair and all the same add-on pieces: fists, feets, thighs, biceps, waist and chest cap. For some reason, the bicep pieces are split on the inside rather than solid, so they fall off easily. Still, this is one big Hulk! And his partner in the set is almost as big!
Mike Haggar is a former professional wrestler who became the mayor of Metro City. Taking on the name "Fighting Mayor," he teamed up with his friends and took on the Mad Gear crime syndicate to rescue his kidnapped daughter.
Mayor Haggar is one of the three playable characters from Final Fight. While the other two characters (and even some of the villains) became playable characters in Street Fighter games, Mike didn't. Even though he was a former Street Fighter champion. You may recognize him as an internet meme, though: he's the guy who piledrives sharks. The Minimate's only add-on (other than his hair) is a chest cap, but it's a unique design that's been molded with his trademark single suspender strap. His chest muscles are painted on, and so is his mighty, manly mustache! He definitely looks tough enough to fight Hulk to a standstill.
Mayor Haggar has two accessories: a lead pipe, which is a reference to the weapons you could find and pick up off the street in Final Fight; and a tan version of Nightcrawler's bamf that serves as the dust cloud kicked up behind him during his charge attacks. The Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Minimates also include a clear disc base with a foot peg, a development Rustin responded to in his traditionally understated manner.

Chicago's West Side After King's Assassination
By Dorothy Tucker April 5, 2018 at 8:56 pm
Filed Under:Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., riots, West Side
CHICAGO (CBS) — The day after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in Memphis, there was outrage, riots and much of the West Side of Chicago was left in ruins.
CBS 2's Dorothy Tucker reports on the North Lawndale community that has struggled to recover but is not giving up.
Chicago's West Side, the night after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was slain.
"People were angry about Dr. King being gone because Dr. King gave us hope," says former Cook County Commissioner Bobbie Steele.
She was a school teacher in 1968, living just blocks from Roosevelt Road.
"You could see the blaze just leaping from the buildings," remembers Steele. "It looked like an inferno."
There were 600 fires that night.
And more the next night.
"The police were all over the neighborhood, telling people to stay inside. There was looting," says Steele. "You could see people going inside and bringing out bags and bags of groceries and whatever else they could bring out."
28 blocks of Chicago's West Side were left in ruins.
More than 200 businesses along Madison, Roosevelt and 16th Street were destroyed.
Today, the community is still littered with vacant lots.
"There's been no real economic development in over 50 years here," says Rodney Brown.
He's one of 300 community and business leaders who are joining forces to revitalize North Lawndale.
They know others have tried before.
"This time it's going to be done by the community," says Brown.

WAR ON TERROR:
What will we learn from the Jakarta bombings?
News Weekly, August 8, 2009
At approximately 07:50 (local time), on July 17, the Indonesian capital of Jakarta was rocked by a series of explosions. It was not long before graphic television footage showed an all-too-familiar pall of smoke rising into the air from Jakarta's Ritz-Carlton and J.W. Marriott hotels.
The blasts in the two hotels were minutes apart and were subsequently determined to be a synchronised terrorist attack. It sounds callous to say this, but "only" nine people were killed - six Westerners, two suicide-bombers and an Indonesian citizen. In addition, an estimated 50 people sustained injuries.
In many respects, this was a small attack; but it was symbolic in that it struck targets that cater principally for Westerners. The hotels themselves are iconic buildings, embodying the spirit of affluent, modern Indonesia.
Because three Australians and a New Zealander were killed, our local media gave considerable prominence and coverage to the attack. It made front-page news around the world for one day, but was quickly subsumed in Europe and the US by other matters.
What was interesting was the scramble to identify who was responsible for the bombing.
For the first 48 hours, the situation was extremely confused with Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) being seen as responsible for the attacks, although other accounts differed slightly. Some placed more emphasis on al Qaeda; others suggested a splinter group from JI headed by the notorious Malaysian terrorist Noordin Mohammad Top.
It was soon discovered that the suicide-bombers had made cheap improvised explosive devices (IEDs), which are wreaking havoc in several countries around the world, most notably Iraq and Afghanistan. An explosive vest shown on TV revealed small devices packed with bolts that could kill people but which were not heavy enough to inflict structural damage on the hotels.
For some time, the question of the strength of Jemaah Islamiyah and its effectiveness has been problematic. Certainly, the Indonesian Government has rounded up some of the leaders.
Australians will never forget Amrozi, one of the three Islamic terrorists executed for the Bali nightclub bombings of October 12, 2002. Throughout his trial, Amrozi giggled and laughed before the TV cameras, confident that he was destined for paradise.
As with al Qaeda, hitting the leadership disperses the organisation, although experts differ about the efficacy of these tactics. Certainly, if symbolic leaders and strategic planners are killed, the terrorist organisation takes some time to rebuild; but a dispersed organisation is far more difficult to monitor and assess and, of course, counter. However, such organisations plan their succession.
In the aftermath of the bombing, numerous academic experts on terrorism have occupied the airwaves. Prominent among them is Dr Sidney Jones, principal spokesperson on Indonesia for the International Crisis Group (ICG).
However, she is heavily dependent for her assessments on information from the Indonesian government. Not long ago, she concluded that JI was basically leaderless, splintered, ineffective and unable to recruit as easily as during the period spanning the 2002 and 2005 Bali bombings.
Hence, Dr Jones and a number of Australian academics were very keen to blame Noordin Top, a Malaysian man said to head the splinter group of JI and a brilliant organiser and tactician.
Scott Stewart and Fred Burton have recently produced a well-written analysis of the Jakarta bombings for the Texas-based intelligence think-tank Strategic Forecasting, Inc. In it they have chronicled the evolution of the "iconic terrorist target". In the 1970s, it was the international airliner; from the 1980s onwards, it was the embassy. But from 2004, write Stewart and Burton, "hotels have become the iconic terrorist target of the post-9/11 era" (Stratfor, July 22, 2009).
My principal criticism of the whole Jakarta affair is basic. Indonesia is overwhelmingly Muslim, and I know that religious practices in both Indonesia and Malaysia are far less overtly hostile and militant than they are in the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent.
However, we have to take Jemaah Islamiyah very seriously. Its spiritual leader, Abu Bakar Bashir, has more than once declared war on Australia, and yet he wanders free, smiling gently, the beneficent holy man, preaching jihad and captivating the young.
It does not really matter whether JI is monolithic or splintered; the result is still death for infidels. I find myself rather astonished that the Australian intelligence community does not take as much interest in JI as I thought would be warranted by our geographical position, the large number of Indonesian students who study in this country, and the fact that these students seem to be "under the radar" of those who focus on al Qaeda.
In one of those grim retrospectives that security and intelligence organisations inevitably undertake from time to time, ASIO reported last September that JI had been dealt a serious blow which had affected its strategic reach. Nevertheless, ASIO's departing director-general, Mr Paul O'Sullivan, reminded the Rudd Government that JI was a resilient organisation and "has not abandoned its violent Islamist goals".
These are the occasions when being right too soon can be extremely unfortunate career-wise. Mr O'Sullivan's more recent assessments, which deserve to be widely read, were reported in The Australian (July 21, 2009).
His prescience is undoubtedly correct and, if any further proof was needed, it was reported late last week that Indonesian officials in Jakarta had located a follow-up car-bomb, which fortunately was disarmed. (The Australian, July 25, 2009).
Now, more than ever, we are required to be vigilant, but not permit ourselves to slide into racism or xenophobia.

1961 Dodge Polara Restored and Driven by Jay Leno
The latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage features a remarkably restored 1961 Dodge Polara which was used by the California Police squad around fifty years back. Although the California Police originally used the Dodge Dart at that time, but this 1961 Dodge Polara was specifically ordered for its powerful performance.
Since this Polara was not in use for about half a century, it was found in a worn-out condition. Thanks to the Automobile Club of Southern California, this oldie cop car was restored to a brand new condition.
Under the hood, it was equipped with a 413-cubic-inch V8, which was overhauled to a working condition. ACSC confirms it delivers 332 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. Other issues fixed were emergency lighting, radio and the speedometer.
Despite knowing the fact that the 1961 Dodge Polara was recently restored, the host Jay Leno didn't give a second thought and pushed the pedal to hit the 60 – 80 mph mark. Watch the full episode of Jay Leno's garage to know more about this spectacular restored cop car.

The Hobbit comes to Capilano University
Wendy Dallian
Stuart Aikin. photo: Wendy Dallian
Multi-talented Stuart Aikins brings the elaborate production of The Hobbit to the Capilano University theatre this month. Aikins gives us some of the insights into bringing such an elaborate play to life.
WD: Can you start by telling us how this project came to be?
SA: The department had decided that they wanted to do The Hobbit as part of their season and then I was approached to see if I was interested in directing it. I made a presentation of how I wanted to do it and they accepted that presentation.
Part of my issue was that the translation or adaptation they were using was written for a children's theatre in Manitoba in 1999. I felt we had to update it and become a little darker and serious in our approach because I think that the audience in 1999 is different from the audience now, especially for young people.
People now are watching video games, they're avatars in live stuff on video, and they've all watched Lord of the Rings 37 times and know it inside out and they're all mildly crazy about the idea of the Hobbit movie in two years, so I needed to have something that had more weight and depth to it. That was my biggest problem and I think we conquered that: we approached it with a style that will be entertaining to kids but it will also be entertaining for adults.
WD: What were some of the biggest challenges you faced with this production?
SA: I think the biggest challenge was that, endemic to the story, we have fantastical items like Smaug the dragon, and we have trolls and goblins, and even in the script Gandolf take his staff and blows up a goblin king and the eagles come and fly them all away.
In the adaptation one of the central characters had little figurines that she lifted out of her pocket: those were the eagles. I just looked at that and thought that was really children's theatre and very lame. We had to come up with great ideas on how to do flying and create smog and so I've taken a core group of twelve actors here at the theatre and and we worked them from the physical side.
They're what we call the Kuroko group. In Japanese theatre the Kuroko are basically the stage managers. They're on stage, they all wear the same color gray, they exist and they don't exist.
If a lead character needs an umbrella or a fan they give it to them. The convention is they don't exist or in our same convention here they create all of those characters and lots of other things. They double as extra dwarves, elves in one scene, goblins in another.
They're completely blacked out: we never see their faces, they're anonymous. That was our biggest challenge.
There's a Japanese sensibility to the whole show. When you look at it I'd probably have to point it out to you, but there's a lot of Japanese influence in the style of the way we built the set, and what it looks like, and the costumes and the appliques of the materials, and we've used that as a sensibility as an underlying theme through the design.
Also from a technical point of view building a stage in the theatre, in the house, right around where the audience is sitting. I wanted this journey play, which is what this is (Bilbo Baggins and the dwarves go on a journey to get their treasure back), to come off of the stage and spill into the audience.
There's a huge stage in the middle of the theatre and the troll scene takes place there, the Gollum scene takes place there, there are lots of scenes that take place there.
In The Hobbit a group of thirteen dwarves come with Gandolf the wizard to find Bilbo (the hobbit) because he is the missing element that they need use to go and steal the jewels and get rind of Smaug the dragon. That's the basic premiss of the story only in this adaptation there are five dwarves.
WD: Was there anything that took you in a direction that you didn't expect?
SA: When you're dealing with students who are all from twenty to twenty-four, except for one student who is a bit older, you have a cast who are to portray characters like Gandolf, who is supposed to be 150. I'm obviously not going to have an adult play Gandolf: I have a twenty year old guy.
I've had to adjust our thinking regarding those kinds of things. That was one of the surprises: having to find a younger more vital way of doing it.

Elton John Revisits Glen Campbell's 'I'm Not Gonna Miss You' in New 'Lockdown Sessions' Duet [Listen]

The late Glen Campbell's final song finds new life on Elton John's new album, The Lockdown Sessions. Hear the new, collaborative version of "I'm Not Gonna Miss You" below.
The heartfelt ballad, the last song that Campbell recorded before his death in 2017, gets a makeover on The Lockdown Sessions. John adds his distinctive glam-rock sound to the new rendition.
Anchored by building piano chords and the clever wordplay of the reflective song's bait-and-switch title, "I'm Not Gonna Miss You" dwells on the beauty of lifelong love and family, making it a perfect track for looking back on an illustrious career such as John's. Campbell originally wrote the song as a tribute to his wife Kim, and USA Today reports that the late artist's team reached out to John to ask if he would be interested in recording a new version of the song.
"I'm Not Gonna Miss You" anchors the soundtrack for the documentary Glen Campbell: I'll Be Me, and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song in 2015. At that year's Oscars ceremony, Tim McGraw stood in for the then-ailing Campbell to perform the song live.
John composed his Lockdown Sessions tracks during the COVID-19 pandemic, after the legendary performer was forced to pause his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour. The album features a star-studded cast of duet partners who join John for an array of new originals and classic covers, including Jimmie Allen, Lil Nas X, Stevie Nicks, Stevie Wonder, Eddie Vedder, Miley Cyrus and 2020's Americana Music Association Artist of the Year winner Brandi Carlile, who joins John on the new track "Simple Things."
"Some of the recording sessions had to be done remotely, via Zoom," notes John of the unconventional album creation process, which he says reminded him of his early-career days as a session musician.
The (Still) Most-Anticipated Country + Americana Albums of 2021:
The year is more than half over, but there's still plenty of great music coming — and even more we're hoping to see announced soon.

ACC proposes RN-to-BSN pr...
ACC proposes RN-to-BSN program for nurse graduates
Austin Community College is proposing a new program that would offer associate degree nursing graduates the opportunity to earn a bachelor of science in nursing – a credential that is increasingly required by health care providers.
"Texas and the nation are already facing a severe nursing shortage. It is important to do everything we can to ensure a workforce with the training and credentials that clinics and hospitals require," says Dr. Charles Cook, ACC provost/executive vice president for academic affairs. "Our goal is to provide a flexible, affordable pathway for our registered nurse graduates to earn their bachelor's degree."
While associate degree nursing students are eligible for the same registered nurse (RN) licensure as bachelor's of science in nursing (BSN) students, the four-year degree has become essential. Many clinical agencies and hospitals require currently employed registered nurses to complete the bachelor's degree within a specified timeframe.
"I had to sign a contract to get my BSN within five years," says Michael Park, ACC nursing graduate. "If I could get my BSN at ACC then I could afford to work part-time while attending class to meet my five-year requirement."
The program would require legislative approval; the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board recommends state lawmakers increase the number of community colleges allowed to offer RN-to-BSN programs.
If approved by the Legislature, ACC would begin offering the RN-to-BSN program in 2017 for 25-40 registered nurses. The program would allow the nurses to complete the additional 60 credits of core curriculum and nursing coursework needed to earn a bachelor's degree. Students would pay less than $4,500 for two years in tuition, compared with $10,000 to $15,000 at a public university.
The need for ACC's graduate output is high in Central Texas. There is a critical nursing shortage because of the aging workforce, an aging population, and an expanding population. ACC graduates more than 200 associate degree nurses a year who are then eligible to take the state licensure exam to become registered nurses. ACC graduates excel on the exam, with pass rates exceeding 91 percent.

What a great idea! I will look into going back to school if you start this program.
By c.ramsey October 21, 2014 - 8:46 am
Why would you wait for ACC when there are a number of RN to BSN programs available now. Many are online and taught by Master's and PhD prepared nurse educators. A strong partnership with upper level state universities would provide a better outcome without other disciplines demanding the same treatment. Is ACC prepared to become a four-year university?
By mreyes October 21, 2014 - 10:28 am
Hi C.Ramsey, thanks for your question. ACC would maintain the associate degree nursing program and our valued partnerships with four-year universities offering RN-to-BSN programs. However, online learning is not for everyone, and on-site education is severely limited in our area. ACC's RN-to-BSN program would increase the availability of on-site instruction for registered nurses while providing the same standard of excellence we offer in our associate degree program. We currently have four faculty with doctoral credentials and eight master's level professors who are enrolled in doctoral education.
By Longhorn Justice October 18, 2014 - 4:35 pm
Bad idea. The ACC Master's level so-called 'professors' are simply not qualified to teach BSNs. ACC would need to replace MSNs with PhDs and some DNPs just to be accredited (let alone to be considered a quality degree).
By mreyes October 20, 2014 - 3:56 am
The ACC Nursing Program has a long history of excellence, and our goal for an RN-to-BSN would be to have a quality program. We currently have four faculty with doctoral credentials and 8 who are currently enrolled in doctoral education). We would seek national accreditation as soon as possible if able to offer the program.
By Mulenga C. October 19, 2014 - 2:50 pm
This is a great proposal!!! I would definitely consider doing my RN-BSN with ACC!!
By anthony October 19, 2014 - 5:16 pm
ACC can offer a Nursing BS degree without raising property taxes. Don't Students already pay tuition? Why do property owners have to pay tuition too? ACC is already the largest in the country. The money ACC will get from stealing students from other universities and offering on line nursing classes will offset the unending need for more money. Don't they offer classes in accounting and efficiency? Why does a 1 cent property tax increase translate into a $2500 increase in our property tax bill?
Hi Anthony, ACC would implement the RN-to-BSN program with current dollars if the Legislature approves the proposal. Any new revenue from a maintenance-and-operation tax cap increase would impact the pace of implementation and enrollment capacity. Good news is tax cap approval would NOT result in the increase shown in your question. For a home valued at $200,000, the maximum monthly tax impact of the M&O tax cap change when all 3 cents were implemented, would be: $4.88 a month, or $1.75 a month for senior citizens and homeowners with disabilities. See details here: https://sites.austincc.edu/bond/tax-cap-election/
We need a tax decrease. Numbers are deceptive & can be manipulated. If you are so good with numbers then find a way to run a budget on less money instead of increasing taxes. Why do tax payers have to give money to ACC it's not a public school and it's not free to go to college. Funds can be generated by stealing students away from other nursing university programs and by offering online nursing programs. It has been done in the Philippines and it was good enough for local hospitals to employ nurses from the Philippines. If concerned about flooding ACC with too many students at once then only require nursing classes to graduate instead of forcing students to take govt, history, art, language, and other nonessential classes. At this tax rate increase Austin will become the next Venice, Italy and Bolder Colorado where you have to make at least $100,000 to afford to live close to where you work.
By Joyce October 31, 2014 - 12:23 am
Actually, a slight increase (adjusted for yearly inflation) in taxes is needed. Unlike you, I'm not bothered by a slight increase of taxes if it's going to the betterment of education.
By Rochelle October 20, 2014 - 9:11 pm
This is a great idea. Why pay $10k to $15k at a university when you can pay half of that at ACC? So will it be a 2 year program after the RN degree? Seems kind of long for a RN-BSN program. Most BSN plans do 2-3 semesters
By Patricia Nehme October 22, 2014 - 1:31 pm
This is very exciting – a great opportunity to encourage BSN.
By Jacqueline Tarleton October 23, 2014 - 1:16 pm
The RN to BSN is an excellent idea. The problem for me is that because I live in Travis County with a Pflugerville address, I will NOT have a cheaper tuition. I will be charged as if I am a student from out of the country even though my sales tax dollars are spent in cities that pay into the Austin Community College system. The tuition would not be cheaper for me and others like me. Yet, I still support the plan because those community college RNs usually don't follow through with their BSNs. I know several in that situation who are excellent nurses. One cannot leave her job because she cannot compete with BSNs for jobs and the other left nursing with only a Diploma from an excellent nursing program but the BSN is the minimum for many nursing jobs. The associate degree RNs have become the LVNs with little to no career mobility. This is the reality for many associate degree nurses. I am hoping for ACC to become a college instead of "community" college. Go ACC!

Okadaman Adds Osaka Flavor to NYC's Food Truck Armada
When Jan Albert and his wife, Kayo, visited Osaka last year, Albert was impressed by the culinary delights of Kayo's hometown. Wanting to find a way to deliver the same tastes of authentic Osaka cuisine to New Yorkers, Albert started formulating a plan during that trip.
The result: Okadaman Foodtruck, which started serving Osaka-style okonomiyaki, takoyaki, and yakisoba in Midtown and Union Square on June 22 of this year.
The Okadaman behind the name is Kayo's cousin Yasuhiko Okada, a chef from Osaka. (Yes, he actually looks like the food truck's logo.) Albert enlisted Chef Okada's services to develop the recipes and to train the cooks on how to make the food that gives his customers a taste of Osaka.
Jan Albert, the brains behind Okadaman
At first glance, you wouldn't suspect Albert to be the man behind a New York City food truck that serves Japanese street food. Born in Prague, Albert moved to New York twenty-three years ago, where he's no stranger to the NYC food industry, most recently serving as plant manager for Tom Cat Bakery. His contacts, as well as his drive to share his passion for not only Japanese cuisine but also the Japanese aesthetic and approach to cuisine, led him to establishing Okadaman rather quickly.
Albert's knowledge of the local food industry helped him acquire a brand new truck that is specifically outfitted for the cooking of okonomiyaki, a Japanese savory "pancake" that is a regional favorite in Osaka. He was able to secure two permanent locations (E. 48th Street between Park and Lexington in the mornings and 14th Street in Union Square in the late afternoon) as well as the necessary permits required with relative ease, and he set up a commissary in Maspeth, where he stores ingredients shipped directly from Japan and where the food truck is sanitized each night.
For all of his expertise in the establishment of Okadaman, Albert insists he's not the man behind the food truck. Rather, he gives credit to a unified team, including Chef Okada, skilled cooks, Kayo, and his stepson, Kosei Shido, who serves as PR manager. Everyone has come together to create a brand and a product of which Albert is quite proud.
The chefs, who are not Japanese, were trained by Okada to cook, but they also received lessons in how to field cultural questions surrounding the food they serve. If a customer is unfamiliar with okonomiyaki, takoyaki or yakisoba, the chefs know how to educate them. Kayo also started a newsletter to explain the history behind okonomiyaki and its ingredients.
And those ingredients are key. In an attempt to create the most authentic Osaka street food possible, Albert goes to great lengths and expense to import ingredients from Japan. (He does his best not to pass on that expense to customers; a generous portion of yakisoba and an Ito-en Tea will run you only $8.25.) What Albert doesn't have shipped from Japan, he buys from farms in New York, especially fresh vegetables, to support local farmers and to promote sustainability.
Albert prefers to call Okadaman a "restaurant on wheels" instead of a food truck because he and his team adhere to strict, high standards that one would find in typical brick-and-mortar shops.
"It's not dirty hot dogs and pretzels," Albert says of Okadaman. As a member of the New York City Food Truck Association, Okadaman Foodtruck is up to code and contributing to the wave of gourmet food trucks that serve the lunch public.
Okadaman customers decide what's for lunch
That lunch crowd is frequenting Okadaman's parking spots. While initially targeting an area in Midtown populated by Japanese-run companies, Albert maintains that he did not focus on attracting only Japanese customers. The late afternoon/early evening crowd in Union Square offers a younger, more adventurous demographic. Albert says he's recognizing repeat customers – many of them non-Japanese – and he loves hearing their reactions.
As pleased as Albert is with the first few weeks of Okadaman, he refuses to rest on his laurels. Chef Okada, who returned to Japan once Okadaman was up and running, continues to be a long-distance presence, formulating new recipes that will be introduced as the seasons change.
If Okadaman is a "restaurant on wheels," then why not open an actual restaurant rather than a food truck? "That's coming in the future," says Albert. "It's a goal. I want to get maybe three more trucks then eventually open a restaurant."
For now, Albert is enjoying the ease and the exposure that Okadaman is able to get while on the street. It's more noticeable than a restaurant that's covered in scaffolding.
"Not everyone has an hour and a half for lunch," says Albert, so why waste it on a burger and fries? Try a new fast food, and take a trip to Osaka without leaving the city.

The inhabitants may change, but the walls of a house remain. When you first move in to a house, it may seem as if those who lived there beforehand remain. What secrets are hidden within the walls? Are the passions, sufferings and joys of the people who live in a house held there forever? Ghosts tend to live in these kinds of places, serving as a sort of energy from the past, as an antidote to the forgotten or perhaps a fictitious product for those who dream of other times. THE HOUSE is an opportunity to explore and experiment with different film genres. It uses the passing of time and decades to tell unique chapters, each in the language and cultural universe of a unique era. Time will cross back and forth through individual chapters, but the specific stories and characters of each decade change. THE HOUSE proposes to tell the story of a place. Nothing more….and nothing less.

Muslim Scholars Appeal To Christian Scholars For Dialogue And Peace On Eve Of Eid
On the eve of Eid al Fitr at the end of Ramadan, 138 Muslim scholars from all over the world representing both Sunni and Shia, Salafi and Sufi, and all of the madhabs (schools of thought) have signed and sent out a letter entitled "A Common Word Between Us and You" to 25 Christian leaders calling for peace and reconciliation between Christians and Muslims for the sake of the world. The letter was addressed to the Pope, the Orthodox Patriarchs, the Archbishop of Canterbury, and the heads of the world alliances of the Lutheran, Methodist, Baptist and Reformed churches.
This is a truly an important document, and Insh'Allah (if God is willing) will be a call for peace that will resonate with both Muslims and Christians. The diversity and eminence of the signatories of this letter requesting dialogue and peace can only strengthen the resolve of the majority of the world's Muslims to continue standing against extremism, and also these well respected scholars now provide a unified entity that can engage in the necessary dialogue. This is a Muslim voice that is loud and clear and beautifully represents mainstream Islam. This letter clearly undermines the position of Muslim extremists and also undermines the propoganda of those who have refused to hear the Muslim voices against extremism that have been attempting for some time to gain the world's attention.
"For centuries there have been theological contentions between Christianity and Islam that have had vast political implications. As there is so much need for mutual understanding and accord, it is essential to provide a solution to these contentions through deeper appreciation and comprehension of the position of the other," said Dr. Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Professor of Islamic Studies at George Washington University and President of the Foundation of Traditional Studies. "This document, prepared on the basis of profound knowledge of Islam and the best of intentions to extend a hand of friendship to Christianity, is signed by major scholars across the spectrum of Islamic thought. It is a very important step taken by Muslims to bring about better understanding between themselves and their Christian brothers and sisters, thereby assisting in that crucial task of creating harmony among religions and peoples, the task to which all those who are seriously concerned with the Future of humanity must dedicate themselves." [11]
The signatories include a number of North American Muslim scholars ( Sheik Mohammed Nur Abdullah, Muzammil Siddiqui on behalf of the entire Fiqh Council of North America, Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, Dr. Akbar Ahmed, Mr. Nihad Awad (CAIR), Dr. Caner Dagli, Prof. Dr. Alan Godlas, Shaykh Hamza Yusuf Hanson, Shaykh Kabir Helminski, Dr. Ibrahim Kalin, Prof. Dr. Hafiz Yusuf Z. Kavakci, Shaykh Dr. Nuh Ha Mim Keller, Dr. Joseph Lumbard, Prof. Dr. Ingrid Mattson (ISNA), Imam Zaid Shakir ) as well as muftis and scholars from: Algeria, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Bosnia, Brunei, Canada, Caucusus, Chad, Croatia, Egypt, France, Gambia, Germany, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Italy, Jordan, Kosovo, Kuwait, Lebanon, Malaysia, Mauritania, Morocco, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, Palestine, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Slovenia, Sudan, Switzerland, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, UAE, UK, and the Ukraine.
"This is a determination by mainstream, traditional Muslim scholars and authorities who cover all the branches of Islam, and that's very unusual," says David Ford, Director of the Inter-Faith Program at the University of Cambridge, who helped launch the letter in London this morning. "It is unapologetic — but not aggressive, not defensive — and is genuinely hospitable in all directions. It's also modest. It doesn't claim to be the final word; it's 'a' common word." [6]
The following summary is from the letter itself:
In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
A Common Word between Us and You
(Summary and Abridgement)
Muslims and Christians together make up well over half of the world's population. Without peace and justice between these two religious communities, there can be no meaningful peace in the world. The future of the world depends on peace between Muslims and Christians.
The basis for this peace and understanding already exists. It is part of the very foundational principles of both faiths: love of the One God, and love of the neighbour. These principles are found over and over again in the sacred texts of Islam and Christianity. The Unity of God, the necessity of love for Him, and the necessity of love of the neighbour is thus the common ground between Islam and Christianity. The following are only a few examples:
Of God's Unity, God says in the Holy Qur'an: Say: He is God, the One! / God, the Self- Sufficient Besought of all! (Al-Ikhlas, 112:1-2). Of the necessity of love for God, God says in the Holy Qur'an: So invoke the Name of thy Lord and devote thyself to Him with a complete devotion (Al-Muzzammil, 73:8). Of the necessity of love for the neighbour, the Prophet Muhammad r said: "None of you has faith until you love for your neighbour what you love for yourself."
In the New Testament, Jesus Christ said: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One. / And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment. / And the second, like it, is this: 'You shall love your neighbour as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these." (Mark 12:29-31)
In the Holy Qur'an, God Most High enjoins Muslims to issue the following call to Christians (and Jews—the People of the Scripture):
Say: O People of the Scripture! Come to a common word between us and you: that we shall worship none but God, and that we shall ascribe no partner unto Him, and that none of us shall take others for lords beside God. And if they turn away, then say: Bear witness that we are they who have surrendered (unto Him). (Aal 'Imran 3:64)
The words: we shall ascribe no partner unto Him relate to the Unity of God, and the words: worship none but God, relate to being totally devoted to God. Hence they all relate to the First and Greatest Commandment. According to one of the oldest and most authoritative commentaries on the Holy Qur'an the words: that none of us shall take others for lords beside God, mean 'that none of us should obey the other in disobedience to what God has commanded'. This relates to the Second Commandment because justice and freedom of religion are a crucial part of love of the neighbour. Thus in obedience to the Holy Qur'an, we as Muslims invite Christians to come together with us on the basis of what is common to us, which is also what is most essential to our faith and practice: the Two Commandments of love.
Highlights from the letter as noted in articles published immediately after release:
"If Muslims and Christians are not at peace, the world cannot be at peace. With the terrible weaponry of the modern world; with Muslims and Christians intertwined everywhere as never before, no side can unilaterally win a conflict between more than half of the world's inhabitants," the scholars wrote. "Our common future is at stake. The very survival of the world itself is perhaps at stake," they wrote, adding that Islam and Christianity already agreed that love of God and neighbor were the two most important commandments of their faiths. [1] Using quotations from the Bible and the Koran to bolster their message, the scholars warned that "our very eternal souls are … at stake if we fail to sincerely make every effort to make peace and come together in harmony." [2] ""Finding common ground between Muslims and Christians is not simply a matter for polite ecumenical dialogue between leaders," the Muslim scholars said. The faiths comprise more than half of humanity, "making the relationship between these communities the most important factor in contributing to meaningful peace around the world." [3] The letter ends with a quote from the Koran — "Vie one with another in good works … Unto God ye will all return, and He will then inform you of that wherein ye differ" — before making a final plea for peace: "So let our differences not cause hatred and strife between us. Let us vie with each other only in righteousness and good works." Surely that's a sentiment people of all faiths can share. [6] "The Unity of God, the necessity of love for [God], and the necessity of love of the neighbour is thus the common ground between Islam and Christianity." [9]
Some early responses:
"Richard Chartres, the Bishop of London, gave an immediate welcome to the letter, of clear relevance to a city so diverse, which has itself suffered the effect of religious extremism. He said, rightly, that such a move deserves a serious response by Christian leaders. He also made the important point that in any dialogue Judaism, the third pillar of the three monotheistic religions, should not be marginalised. By quoting the Torah as well as the New Testament, the signatories imply the debt of Islam, as well as Christianity, to Judaism. More explicit acknowledge-ment would do much to further world peace." [4]
"Early responses indicate that Christian leaders are welcoming the "Common Word" with open arms. In Britain the bishop of London told NEWSWEEK that the letter would "invite" young people to view the world as "a place where dialogue is possible, instead of a place full of threats." America's evangelical Christian leaders are being similarly positive. Rod Parsley, senior pastor of the World Harvest Church in Ohio, says, "My prayer is that this letter begins a dialogue that results in Muslims and Christians uniting around the love we have for each other as God's children." [5]
Professor David Ford, director of the Cambridge Interfaith programme, said the letter was unprecedented. "If sufficient people and groups heed this statement and act on it then the atmosphere will be changed into one in which violent extremists cannot flourish." [7]
The Archbishop of Canterbury welcomed the letter, and said: "The theological basis of the letter and its call to 'vie with each other only in righteousness and good works; to respect each other, be fair, just and kind to another and live in sincere peace, harmony and mutual goodwill', are indicative of the kind of relationship for which we yearn in all parts of the world, and especially where Christians and Muslims live together. It is particularly important in underlining the need for respect towards minorities in contexts where either Islam or Christianity is the majority presence. There is much here to study and to build on. The letter's understanding of the unity of God provides an opportunity for Christians and Muslims to explore together their distinctive understandings and the ways in which these mould and shape our lives. The call to respect, peace and goodwill should now be taken up by Christians and Muslims at all levels and in all countries and I shall endeavour in this country and internationally, to do my part in working for the righteousness which this letter proclaims as our common goal." The Bishop of London, the Rt Rev Richard Chartres, also responded to the letter, and said: "I welcome this open letter and the proposal for a global conversation between religious scholars which it contains. Such a conversation could be a significant contribution to building the peace between the billions who follow a spiritual path in their lives." [8]
"The Evangelical Alliance, an umbrella group for U.K. evangelicals, released a statement saying that "any approach that is seeking to draw different religions into dialogue for the purpose of peace must be encouraged." Still, the statement warned, "genuine and important differences between the two faiths remain." [12]
Scott Alexander, director of Catholic-Muslim Studies at the Catholic Theological Union, said "The significance of this initiative is that there is no one institution in the Muslim world that speaks for all or most Muslims the way there is in Roman Catholic Christianity," Alexander said. "What is extraordinary and exciting is that the Muslim community is thinking of creative ways to organize itself so it can effectively participate in dialogue on a global scale." [13]
"The letter, which quotes from both the Bible and the Koran, gives "compelling reasons why Muslims and Christians should work together," said Sister Mary Ann Walsh, spokeswoman for the US Conference of Catholic Bishops." [14]
And, then of course there are those who want to see a clash of civilizations and insist on perverting and twisting even something so clear to make it appear that this plea for understanding is actually a Muslim threat. They report this story with headlines such as "Muslim Clerics Warn Pope Over Criticizing Islam…", "Muslims to Christians: make peace with us, or the survival of the world is at stake" by Robert Spencer, 'Make peace with us – or we'll kill you!' by Hal Lindsay, Muslims Lie Re Peace Bridge to Lull Non-Muslims by J. Grant Swank, and Who Speaks for Islam? by John F. Cullinan

You can not use some free email accounts to register.
You should use the email address you have with your ISP.
This helps to ensure all users that eventually want to sell are using a valid paid email address.
If you want to sell on this site, you must register with a valid email account from your ISP.
If you wish to be a seller, you must PM me from your account at The Acaeum, Dragonsfoot or eBay.
Please email me at [email protected] with your request and I will give you my contact info for the one you wish to use.
I will verify your reputation with others from one of those sites before you are allowed to sell.
I will also call you on the phone number you listed as well as do a reverse lookup on your number to verify your address.
I spent the money and time to set this up so people looking to unload a few items in a "Store" environment could do so for FREE, or if they want to auction off 100s or 1000s of items they could also do it for FREE. But since it does cost money to operate this, there are some very small costs should you choose to use a couple of the features that I presume most users won't even bother with.
Basically if you are validated to become a seller, then listing and selling is FREE. For as many items as you like at any value. You can even run a FREE store to put 25 items in.
The only cost is if you want to have your auctions/items featured on the main page. That cost is $ 0.05, a whopping nickel. To be featured within a category, is FREE. So if you listed a single item for 30 days with 12 auto relists and had it featured on the main page, it would cost you $ 0.60 for the year !
Stores that have more than 25 items can cost from $3.00 per year, to $60.00 per year. Read the "Site Fees" section to see how many items are allowed in each store type and which are "Featured Stores".
I added a "sticky" feature which places your auctions at the top of the list for 7 days. This fee is $0.25 should you choose to use it.
There are no other fees.
First off, no one can become a seller until they have been checked out by some means.
Either known to the Acaeum or Dragonsfoot community or have an eBay account in good standing.
- This signifies the person was verified by some means.

Rugby Southland (formerly the Southland Rugby Football Union) is the provincial rugby union who govern the Southland region of New Zealand. Their headquarters are at Rugby Park Stadium in Invercargill, which is also the home ground of the union's professional team, the Southland Stags who compete in the Mitre 10 Cup Championship Division and challenge for the Ranfurly Shield.

Despite their proud history, no Southland team has ever won the top division of the New Zealand National Provincial Championship since organised competition began in 1976. However, they have won the NPC second division title five times and held the Ranfurly Shield seven times, most recently in 2011 where they defended the shield twice before losing it to Taranaki. Southland also plays for the Donald Stuart Memorial Shield against rivals Otago in what is the longest tenured provincial rivalry in New Zealand first-class rugby, with 229 matches.

History

Formation and early years
Founded in 1887 after splitting from Otago, Southland and its former stablemate went on to forge what is New Zealand's longest inter-provincial rugby rivalries. The two sides have played more games against each other than any other representative teams in New Zealand. They played their first game against Otago, losing in a close affair. The Southland region already had strong club rugby teams with Invercargill competing in the Dunedin based competition. The Invercargill club had already produced two All Blacks. They were outside back, Henry Braddon and wing forward, James O'Donnell. In 1885 these two players were recognised as Otago All Blacks as they played their rugby for neighbouring province.

It was not until 1896 when Southland hooker, Nisbet McRobie was selected in the New Zealand team to play Queensland. The side won 9-nil and it was McRobie's only game in the 'black jersey', however he occupies a special place in Southland Rugby history as the provinces first of over 50 All Blacks. Billy Stead became the provinces first test All Black in 1903 and also captained the All Blacks 12 times.

Production of talent
Southland is renowned for producing a high number of quality players despite the small population of the province shown by the over 50 All Blacks who have come from Southland. This continued following the war with players such as Leo Connolly and Jack Hazlett followed by Leicester Rutledge and Frank Oliver. But as rugby in New Zealand was organised into structured annual competition to replace tours and series which Southland had played in previously Southland Rugby struggled to retain their local talent. With Southland in the NPC Second Division from 1976, talented Southlanders began heading north in search of top level rugby. Southland continued to produce homegrown talent over 1980s and 1990s which led them to five Second Division titles, namely Brian McKechnie, Steven Pokere, Geoff Valli, Paul Henderson and Simon Culhane who was the shining light for Southland over this period, it was the talent that was lost that continues to haunt Southland fans. Southland at this time was used as a kickstart for many successful players careers. Valli moved to North Auckland in 1981, Pokere left Southland for Auckland in 1984 and Henderson spent what most consider to be his best years as a footballer in Otago from 1987-91. This worsened as Southland neared the millennium and led to embarrassing results where victories were few and far between as Southland was promoted to the NPC First Division after their 1996 championship.

Considered one of Southland's best ever athletes, it pains many Southland fans to think that Jeff Wilson played only a season for Southland whilst still attending Cargill High School before heading to Otago to attend university and play his provincial rugby and cricket both of which he would represent New Zealand in before turning 20, going on to play 60 tests for the All Blacks. Justin Marshall who was Southland's halfback left after the winning the 1994 Second Division title and went on to become one of New Zealand's greatest halfbacks playing 81 All Black tests from 1995-2005 and winning every major trophy in New Zealand rugby excluding a Rugby World Cup. 2002 Southland captain Corey Flynn left the province for Canterbury and the Crusaders in 2003 and went on to play 70 games for Canterbury, 150 for the Crusaders and 15 for the All Blacks which would have been far greater if not for multiple broken arms from 2003-2014.

Others who kickstarted their career in Southland before moving where they became All Blacks Norm Hewitt, Pita Alatini, David Hill and Paul Miller. All Blacks such as Anton Oliver, Damian McKenzie and Mils Muliaina (with the latter going on to become the second ever All Blacks centurion), who left the province for their schooling would not return with rugby's increasing professionalism to represent the province like their family had in the past.

In recent years such as 2021, Ethan De Groot has played three tests for the All Blacks

Southland vs international teams
For a province of its size, Southland's record against international teams is unmatched. Rugby Park has not been a happy hunting ground for foreign sides many of whom have come to grief at the hands of determined Southland sides over the years. Australian national and state sides have had a particularly miserable time in Invercargill, losing on 13 occasions. The British Lions were defeated in 1950 and 1966 and France were put away in 1979 and 1989 along with Italy more recently in 2003.

Ranfurly Shield
Southland were the first South Island province to win the coveted Ranfurly Shield in 1920 when they beat Wellington. Their first shield reign was brief, losing the Shield back to Wellington in 1921 after two defences. They next won the Shield in 1929 off Wairarapa, this time defending it four times before again losing to Wellington. Southland then won the Ranfurly Shield in 1937 and 1938 when they retained the Shield for 12 challenges before losing it to bitter rivals Otago in 1947. With Ranfurly Shield rugby not played from 1939 to 1945 due to World War II, Southland's nine years with the Shield remains the longest in terms of time period although it did reside under a bed for much of this time. The Southland side during this period boasted All Blacks George Purdue, Bill Hazlett, Art Wesney, Les George and All Black Captains Frank Kilby and Brushy Mitchell in the Shield winning sides.

Their next Shield victory over Taranaki in 1959 would be their last for 51 years before the 2009 Southland side broke the drought by beating Canterbury 9-3 in Christchurch. Their six defences of the Shield proved to be some of the more iconic Shield games in the professional era including a 16-12 victory over arch-rivals Otago in front of a sold-out Rugby Park, and a 9-6 victory over Auckland days after the biggest snow storm ever recorded in the province led to fans having to shovel snow off the field the day before the game. After losing the Shield to Canterbury, the Stags again claimed the shield from their South Island rivals in 2011 in their most recent tenure which lasted two games. These Southland sides were not headlined by regular All Blacks like the teams from the 1930s and 1940s, instead they were made up mostly of locally grown talent educated at Southland Boys' High School such as captain Jamie Mackintosh, centurions Jason Rutledge, David Hall, Josh Bekhuis and Tim Boys, and future Scotland international John Hardie.

Name change
In 1998 the Southland Rugby Football Union Incorporated changed its name to Rugby Southland Incorporated

Club rugby
When Robert Galbraith stepped down as the Southland Rugby Football Union secretary the union handed him a donation which the long-serving Southland rugby administrator promptly spent on a shield he donated back to the union as a prize for Invercargill's top club rugby competition. The Galbraith Shield has been the prize for Southland's premier club rugby competition since 1908.

There are six teams currently in Southland's premier competition; Marist,  Blues, Pirates-Old Boys, Star, Woodlands and the Eastern Northern Barbarians whose players come from the clubs in the Eastern/Northern sub union.

Southland in Super Rugby
Southland are one of three home unions to make up the Highlanders Super Rugby team, the other two unions being Otago and North Otago. There is currently an agreement in place for the Highlanders to play one regular season game per year at Rugby Park Stadium. Despite their interests in the Highlanders, Southland players are free to play for whichever Super team contracts them, with those who aren't contracted often representing the Highlanders development team known as the Bravehearts. This has seen players such as former player Wharenui Hawera represent the ACT Brumbies. The players from the 2021 Stags squad with Super Rugby experience are:
 Ethan de Groot
 Highlanders:  2020–present (14 caps)

New here and looking for some help.
68 Falcon Sports Coupe pics: FINALLY !
1970 falcon engine swap to a 460?
Finally a full set !!
Hello; Back in the falcons again.
It's been a few years.. I am back.
New member in Arlington, wa.
Greetings from Seattle. And a request.


KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A settlement has been reached in the class-action lawsuit brought by two former employees who were exposed to asbestos during Jackson County courthouse renovations more than 30 years ago.
The company which initially installed the asbestos in 1954, U.S. Engineering, was also responsible for removing the harmful material during renovations which began in 1983. Since then the company has paid out to the family of one former employee, Nancy Lopez, who worked at the courthouse during the renovations and died of mesothelioma at age 56 in 2010.
U.S. Engineering paid her family $10 million in that settlement. The county paid $400,000 and two other companies involved in the renovations paid $20,000.
That settlement was one of the largest asbestos payouts ever in the state of Missouri at the time. The Kansas City Star reports that this most recent settlement reached $80 million.
Jackson County issued a statement Wednesday, noting that the settlement was paid out by the U.S. Engineering company, and will not come at the expense of Jackson County taxpayers.
"Jackson County is pleased that the case involving US Engineering has been resolved for the benefit of Jackson County citizens and County employees.
Jackson County appreciates US Engineering stepping up to resolve this matter.
Jackson County became aware of the claims when the lawsuit was filed in 2010.
The Presiding Judge of the Court and County Officials immediately arranged for air quality testing to determine whether or not it was safe for people to work in the Jackson County Courthouse located in Downtown Kansas City and for citizens and others to conduct business there. The air quality testing conducted in 2010, and other testing after that date, confirms that the air quality in the Courthouse is safe and meets regulatory guidelines.
Jackson County has taken responsible steps to ensure that the citizens of Jackson County, County employees and anyone who visits or works in the Courthouse are appropriately protected, and it will continue to do so.
In addition, US Engineering's resolution in this matter has no effect or cost to Jackson County taxpayers, nor does it have any financial impact on Jackson County.


Kiotari beach is located along the east coast of the island, 60 kilometers from the city of Rhodes. It is famous for its luxurious hotels and delicious fish restaurants and traditional Greek cuisine that overlooks it. It is a very well organized beach that stretches for kilometers. On one side it is made of sand and on the other of pebbles and it gently throws into the sea, almost always calm and flat, characteristic of this corner of Rhodes.
Originally Kiotari was the port of Asklipio, but today it also includes large hotels built along the coast, in the direction of Lindos. Not to mention the guesthouses and taverns surrounding the ancient church of Metamorphosis, among whose walls some early Christian capitals can be recognized. In particular, in this small village, the typical village atmosphere is certainly not breathed, but this lack is certainly well compensated by the presence of well-equipped kilometers of coast for water sports enthusiasts.
Kiotari's main beach stretches as far as Gennadi, and is also appreciates by snorkelers, who can enjoy the rocky coastline.
There are also many places of worship in the area, among which the most important is the Church of the Metamorphosis of Sotiros, built with some parts of an ancient temple but also worth visiting the church of Eftavimati, built in the fifth century, and the church of Koimisis tis Theotokou, with frescoes from the 1600s.

Q: Question on Category Theory injective morphism I have a basic understanding in Category Theory but haven't had any exposure to Modules but this is a question from last year's paper.
Show that a morphism $u:M \to L$ in a category $\mathscr C$ of modules over a ring R (or the category of sets) is injective iff for any $X$ of $\mathscr C$ and $v \in Hom_R(X,M)$ the map $Hom_R(X,M) \to Hom_R(X,L), v\mapsto uv$ is injective.
Also is it the case that map $u$ is surjective iff $v \mapsto uv$ is surjective? If so, how do I prove this?
Thanks in advance for any replies.

A: A map $u \colon M \to L$ (in any category $\mathscr C$) such that the induced map $\hom_{\mathscr C}(X,M) \to \hom_{\mathscr C}(X,L)$ is injective for all object $X$ in $\mathscr C$ is called a monomorphism.
You first question actually is :

Let $R$ be a ring. Show that the monomorphisms of the category of modules over the ring $R$ are exactly the injective maps of modules.

There is a really quick way to show it. First, it is clear that the injective maps of modules are monomorphisms. Conversely, the forgetful functor $U \colon R{-}\mathsf{Mod} \to \mathsf{Set}$ admits a left adjoint (namely, the free $R$-module functor), hence commutes with limits, and so takes monomorphisms to monomorphisms. The monomorphisms of $\mathsf{Set}$ being the injections, it concludes.
As for your second question, Zhen Lin already responded in the comments. However, you are probably interested in the notion of epimorphism : a map $u \colon M \to L$ of $\mathscr C$ is called an epimorphism when the induced map $\hom_{\mathscr C}(L,X) \to \hom_{\mathscr C}(M,X)$ is injective for all object $X$ in $\mathscr C$.

A: From the elementary level of the question it is clear that no reference to the RAPL (right adjoints preserve limits) theorem is required (nor welcome). It is also clear that the question is not really specific to modules, since it refers also to the category of sets.
The author of the question simply wants you to be able to translate a elementary algebra definition (injection) which is made in terms of elements of a set (or module or group, or ring) to a categorical one (monomorphisms) which is made in terms of morphisms.
So , how do you translate $x \in X$ into category language which only uses objects and morphisms?
Very simple: in the category $\mathcal{Set}$ every element $x$ of a set $X$ is in bijenctive correspondence with a morphism (that is: a function) $x^\prime$ from a simgleton to $X$. This morphism takes the unique element in the singleton to $x \in X$.
In the category of $Mod_R$, instead of singleton you use the module $R$ and the morphism (that is: a linear transformation)  from $R$ to $X$ which takes $1$ to $x$ in module $X$.
In the category $Grp$ you would use the $Z$ group of integers and the morphism from $1$ to $x$ in group $X$
And so on , as long as you work in a category where an element of an object can be described as a special morphsm from a special object in the category.
Now whenever you want to translate a formula $f(x)$ into category language, you just write $f  \circ x^\prime$.
Wth this simp,e translation rule, you can easily express injectivity in terms of morphisms and see that (in these categories) it is equivalent to monomorphism.

Philadelphia Man Escapes Fire By Climbing Down Side of 19-Story Building, Spider-Man Style
Seven people were reportedly injured after a fire broke out in a West Philadelphia apartment building Thursday night, and one man managed to escape the blaze by free-climbing down the side of the building, reports say.
The blaze broke out at the Holden Tower on Holden Street around 9:28 p.m. Thursday night. Fire officials received "multiple calls" about the incident, a Philadelphia Police Department spokesperson tells PEOPLE. The spokesperson says callers reported "heavy smoke" and residents "trapped in apartments on multiple floors."
But one man didn't wait for rescue. Footage showed him in a green shirt and jeans as he scaled 15 stories down the high-rise building.
"He climbed about 200 feet down on what looked like basically chain-link fencing and then the railings of each apartment building," said NBC 10 pilot Jeremy Haas.
It took just minutes for the man to reach the sidewalk, and he did not appear to be injured, NBC 10 reported. He was greeted by police officers at the bottom.
The man's identity has not been made public.
The fire is believed to have started in the building's trash chute, WPVI reported. Residents were evacuated from the building and the fire was under control by 10:56 p.m., according to WPVI.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=_Tg1KJBev5Q
"We did make some forcible entry on some units," Philadelphia Fire Assistant Chief Harry Bannan said, according to the station. "We received calls from our fire communication center and fire department units. We went to those apartments to check on those residents."
Four residents were treated for smoke inhalation and heat exhaustion, according to the Associated Press. The police spokesperson says three officers were taken to local hospitals where they were treated for smoke inhalation and released.
Firefighters used a water line to flood the trash chute twice, the AP reported. SEPTA provided buses to take residents to a cool place while firefighters worked at the building.
Residents were able to return to the building later that night, according to the AP.

Three more deaths on overcrowded Everest
AFP May 24, 2019
Kathmandu (AFP) - Three more climbers have died on Everest, expedition organisers and officials said Friday, taking the toll from a deadly week on the overcrowded world's highest peak to seven.
"Two more Indian climbers have died on Everest yesterday," Mira Acharya, spokeswoman for Nepal's Tourism Department, told AFP, while expedition organisers confirmed the third fatality.
Kalpana Das, 52, reached the summit but died on Thursday afternoon while descending, as a huge number of climbers queued near the top of Mount Everest.
Another Indian climber, 27-year-old Nihal Bagwan, also died on his way back from the summit.
"He was stuck in the traffic for more than 12 hours and was exhausted. Sherpa guides carried him down to Camp 4 but he breathed his last there," said Keshav Paudel of Peak Promotion.
An Austrian climber died on the northern Tibet side of the mountain, his expedition organiser said.
The 65-year-old died close to the summit on his descent.
Wednesday saw an Indian and American climber die on the mountain. Last week, an Indian climber died and an Irish mountaineer is presumed dead after he slipped and fell close to the summit.
Mountaineering in Nepal has become a lucrative business since Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay made the first ascent of Everest in 1953.
The Himalayan nation has issued a record 381 permits costing $11,000 each for this year's spring climbing season, triggering bottlenecks en route to the summit after poor weather cut down the number of climbing days.
Most Everest hopefuls are escorted by a Nepali guide, meaning more than 750 climbers were expected to tread the same path to the top in the current season.
At least 140 others have been granted permits to scale Everest from the northern flank in Tibet, according to expedition operators. This could take the total past last year's record of 807 people reaching the summit.
Many Himalayan mountains -- including Everest -- are at peak climbing season, with the window of good weather between late April and the end of May.
At seven other climbers have died on other 8,000-metre Himalayan peaks this season, while two are missing.
