On September 14th I wrote a blog entry entitled, "The Gift of a Thorn." In the blog I paraphrased a poem I had heard that I thought was written by Elisabeth Elliot. Today a dear friend forwarded me the original poem actually written by a woman named Martha Snell Nicholson--who lived for nearly three decades as an invalid. This is such an amazing testimony and priceless treasure! Thank you, Natasha!!!
FYI: A mendicant is a "beggar."
I cried, "But Lord this is a thorn and it has pierced my heart.
This is a strange, a hurtful gift, which Thou hast given me."

Margulies Berl znany jako Berl Broder (ur. około 1815 w Podkamieniu, zm. 1868  w Ploeszti) – śpiewak ludowy, badchen, poeta.

Życiorys
Pochodził z żydowskiej rodziny. W dzieciństwie studiował religię w domu. Gry na skrzypcach nauczył się samodzielnie. W wieku 16 lat, po śmierci ojca został pomocnikiem szczotkarza. W warsztacie zachwycał swoimi przyśpiewkami innych robotników i otrzymał przydomek Berl der wertlzoger. Wędrował z dwoma młodymi śpiewakami po żydowskich miasteczkach, występując w karczmach, na ślubach. Uważa się, że wiele jego piosenek było improwizowanych na miejscu. Stworzył coś w rodzaju pierwszego żydowskiego kabaretu. Był pierwszym z tzw. broder zinger. W 1857 roku, gdy Brody dotknął kryzys gospodarczy, stworzył zespół Broder-singer i wyjechał do Rosji.

Po opuszczeniu Brodów nigdy nie osiedlił się w jednym miejscu. Przeżył swoje ostatnie lata w biedzie, niektóre źródła wspominają o jego kłopotach z alkoholem.

Pisał wiersze, które opublikowano w 3 tomach. Pierwszy tomik poezji został wydany w 1860 roku w Bratysławie, drugi we Lwowie, a trzeci (1882) w Warszawie. Komponował liczne piosenki i kuplety, z których większość nie została opublikowana.

Przetrwało trzydzieści jego piosenek; 24 z nich mają charakter dialogów, najczęściej pomiędzy rzemieślnikami, takimi jak krawcy czy szewcy. Jest postrzegany prekursor teatru jidysz.

My first-grade class skyped with author Derek Taylor Kent. He sent us the bilingual book, El Perro con Sombrero about a little doggy who wanted a home. We learned that Pepe, the dog in the story, was about his real dog Zander. After, the kids said they wanted to publish a book for our library! WOW! Thanks for the inspiration.
How exciting! Derek is a wonderful and unique person and I am so glad he inspired your classroom. Thanks for sharing!

This is a review of "Light the Windows in these Places Let Through" recorded by Rhode Island. The review was written by Jimmy Horrigan in 2011.
Writing a review when as full as I am is proving to be a challenge. Thanks to a beautiful Sunday dinner with the in-laws I'm now at the Homer stage of trying to find some clown trousers up to the task of housing my recently extended tummy dome. This may make the review less entertaining or simply more about the music than previously; let's see.
The album opens with "War in Iran" which chugs along nicely like the belligerent son of Bryan Ferry's "Let's Stick Together" or ELO's "Don't Bring Me Down". On first listen it seems simple enough but it offers new things after a couple of visits. One aspect I like about this as an opener is that it serves as a taster for the range of sounds offered throughout the album; fuzzy guitars, slide, neat drums, rhodes (?) and soft vocals.
Nicotine, alcohol, love, coffee and identity appear in some of the songs and whatever the theme; the songs maintain a pretty positive outlook. "A House" moves along beautifully after the simple vocal//guitar intro and the drums perfectly embellish the pace to a great song and the vocals are at their best here too. "Gouranga" is one of the highlights for me and it wanders around musically and has some excellent moments whereas "Alcoholics" has a spaced-out vibe and a splash of Summer about it.
"I Lost My Mind in the Middle of the Summer" is well crafted and probably my favourite track. It has an air of Supergrass or Bowie; teenage abandonment and carefree kicks wrapped in intelligent music. "Articulation" has a similar wit about it sounding like an early Ben Folds song; with wonderful accompanying guitars that add richness to solid vocals. The Emmerdale interlude was a nice touch on this one - reminding me I'm listening to something local and organic - but a band looking beyond their environment for scope all the same. That's the topic of this song too I reckon; looking as far and wide as you can to find what it is you're actually after or about - not just where and what you are right now.
Aiming to make pop both "strange and conventional in equal measures" say the boys; well I'd say job done. It's probably against the DIY spirit of the album but sharper production would open the songs up more and offer even more texture. Mull Historical Society's "Loss" achieves the same aesthetics but with more layers and I recommend a listen to anyone remotely interested in this style of sound-making. Overall, plenty of the songs have winning elements but not all deliver the full package.
"Shipwreck", the closing track, has a ridiculously promising intro and the particular soundscape I'm referring to is repeated at other points in the song but otherwise it falls short of the brilliant promise it shows. Miles apart and probably unaware of each other - this album will sit nicely on my bowed shelves alongside Possum Dixon, Ben Folds and Motel Motel.
Right then - The clown trousers have been located, my feet up and it's time for a brew - I think I just about have room now.


In the midst of an extremely divisive climate in our culture, we could use some wisdom on how to best engage in heated conversations without throwing gas on the fire. As we also live in what has become a post-Christian society, we could use some wisdom on how to best share the teachings of Jesus in a way that corrects misunderstandings about him and that confronts the ways that he is often misrepresented.
Recently I was asked to write four short devotional-type messages that will be published in an upcoming issue of the Sports Spectrum magazine. Each these four writings were to be based on the overall theme of how we should engage others who might hold different opinions about life than we do.
For this project, I decided to use four different encounters that Jesus had during his time in the Jerusalem temple recorded in chapter twelve of Mark's gospel. In each of these encounters, we see the wisdom of Jesus confronting and challenging others in a way that can help us in our conversations today. Those encounters and some principles that we learn from them have been summarized below, and I hope this helps all of us in carrying out our duty of being peacemakers and voices of unity, grace and truth in the midst of so much divisiveness and confusion.
In chapter twelve of Mark's gospel, Mark records some stories of Jesus being challenged by different groups of people with hard questions to see how he might react or respond. Those who are offended by his life and message are hoping to get him to saying something offensive or damaging to his reputation, but in each one of these encounters, Jesus demonstrates great wisdom as he responds with answers that transcend all the potential traps and talking points.
In one encounter, the Pharisees and Herodians attempt to trap Jesus with a question on taxation. These two groups were notorious adversaries in regard to many political and religious issues in the same way that we might think of Republicans and Democrats today. Jesus seems to be a threat to both of their agendas, and so they come together to try and force Jesus into a position of either supporting Roman authority or Israelite independence.
Today, we live in a very divisive and opinionated society where people are quick to pick a particular side of an argument or issue. As those who belong to Jesus, we must be different and respond in ways that transcend the typical talking points.
Jesus' response doesn't affirm or condemn either agenda. He basically says, "The coins bear the image of Caesar so give them to Caesar; man bears the image of God so give yourself to God." It's a brilliant response that avoids the trap of picking a side while also challenging the agenda of both.
In another encounter that Mark records in his gospel, the Sadducees attempt to trap Jesus with a question concerning the resurrection. The Sadducees were a group of wealthy Jewish families who controlled the Jerusalem temple and the highest religious council of Israel. They were conservative in their beliefs and did not believe in a resurrection or life after death. Therefore, the teaching of Jesus was ridiculous to them.
The Sadducees simply come to mock Jesus' belief in a resurrection by giving an obviously ridiculous and unrealistic illustration of a woman who was married seven different times. They then ask Jesus, "In this resurrection and eternal life that you keep talking about, which one of these seven men will get to be her husband?" In their minds, they've just proven that belief in a resurrection and eternal life is dumb.
The Sadducees believed that this life was all that mattered because this life was all there was. It was this belief that motivated their materialism and skepticism. We all know people like this today, and we are probably familiar with people who ask overstated questions in an attempt to make our beliefs look foolish or unpopular.
Jesus doesn't entertain the overstated question. Instead, he responds with a question that challenges the Sadducees' own understanding of what they claim to believe, and then he uses what they believe to prove the validity of his own teaching. It's another brilliant response and a reminder that sometimes a good question is the best answer.
After some encounters with people who opposed his message, Jesus is approached by a scribe who seems to be sincere in the question that he wants to ask. This scribe is a teacher of the Jewish Scriptures, and he wants to know Jesus' honest opinion concerning what commandment best sums up all the other commandments of God.
Whenever we are confronted by people who ask overstated questions to criticize what we believe, we must recognize that these questions are rarely sincere and that the person asking such questions is not really seeking any sort of answer. However, whenever we are approached by people who ask honest questions and who seem to be sincere and teachable then we need to be ready and able to give clear and insightful answers that confirm what we believe.
Jesus gives this teachable scribe a very direct and clear answer. Jesus tells him that the command in Deuteronomy 6 to love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and the command in Leviticus 19 to love your neighbor as yourself can be combined to give you the fundamental command that best sums up all the other commandments. The scribe finds Jesus' answer agreeable and appreciates such a clear response.
As disciples of Jesus, we must devote ourselves to studying the Scriptures and truly knowing what we believe. And then like Jesus, we must stay ready and able to give solid answers to sincere questions.
Jesus is challenging everyone's understanding concerning the identity of the Christ and the nature of the kingdom of God. Contrary to the people's understanding of the Christ and the kingdom of God, Jesus declares that the Christ cannot be reduced to just a future Son of David; he is the eternal Son of God and the promised Savior-King who reigns over the heavenly kingdom that will one day be fully established here on earth.

The first ever talent show is coming up soon, on April 12th.
Student council has been wanting to put on a talent show for a few years now so Annie and Izzy kind of just took the initiative and ta da, a talent show." said teacher, Ms.Hedberg.
This talent show is a chance for people to discover all the hidden talents that their friends have. We talked to a few of the students that are planning to audition and they are very excited that the school is giving them this opportunity.
With the event coming up so soon everyone is rushing to get their talent perfected before auditions. "We are going to go full hard rehearsal today and then it's go time." Says senior, Raiden Gonzales.
Raiden will we performing a duet with Lanaisha, "We first started singing together in middle school. During our Stang Gang concert we had a duet together, we just clicked from there," said Gonzales.
Lots of people have many hidden talents that they have never shown off to anyone, weather that is singing, dancing, or, for sophomore Makelti Hastings, that is doing the alphabet aerobics. "Singing the Alphabet Aerobics is like making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, you don't think about it you just kind of do it." Said sophomore, Makelti Hastings.
"It's really not a talent show as much as it is a talent showcase, there's not going to be a winner it is just going to be a look at how talented our students are." said Hedberg. There were two days of auditions and about 13 acts. We are looking forward to seeing everyone perform, and we hope to see lots of people supporting the performers as well. So be sure to put it on you calendar for April 12th, during ELO.
I'm really excited to see the talent all the performers have. Good Luck!

Die Makaken (Macaca) – Singular Makak oder Makake – sind eine Primatengattung aus der Familie der Meerkatzenverwandten (Cercopithecidae). Die Gattung umfasst 25 Arten, die mit Ausnahme des Berberaffen alle in Asien beheimatet sind. Es sind vorwiegend früchtefressende, in Gruppen zusammenlebende Tiere. Einige Arten wie Rhesusaffe und Javaneraffe leben in der Nähe des Menschen und sind weitverbreitet und bekannt, andere – insbesondere Inselendemiten – sind in ihrem Bestand bedroht.

Beschreibung
Makaken sind mittelgroße Primaten mit stämmigem Körper und kräftigen Gliedmaßen. Ihr dichtes Fell ist meist graubraun gefärbt, kann jedoch auch fast schwarz sein. Die Gesichter sind haarlos und haben eine nach vorne ragende Schnauze, starke raubtierähnliche Gebisse, eine kräftige Kinnlade und eine vorstehende Nase mit engliegenden und kurzen Nasenlöchern. Einige Arten haben auffällige  "Kappen" auf dem Kopf oder bartähnliche Gesichtsbehaarung. Ein wichtiges Unterscheidungsmerkmal ist die Länge des Schwanzes: der Berberaffe ist schwanzlos, manche Arten (zum Beispiel der Japanmakak oder der Bärenmakak) haben nur einen Stummelschwanz, bei anderen Arten (zum Beispiel dem Javaneraffen) ist der Schwanz ebenso lang wie der Körper. Makaken erreichen eine Kopfrumpflänge von 40 bis 76 Zentimeter und ein Gewicht von 2,5 bis 18 Kilogramm, wobei Männchen oft um die Hälfte schwerer als Weibchen sind. Der Ceylon-Hutaffe gilt als kleinster, der Tibetmakak als größter Makak.

Verbreitung
Das Verbreitungsgebiet der Makaken erstreckt sich von Afghanistan über Süd- und Südostasien (bis Timor) und China bis nach Japan. Einziger nicht in Asien lebender Vertreter ist der Berberaffe, der im nördlichen Afrika sowie auf Gibraltar lebt. Diese Primaten haben somit mit Ausnahme des Menschen das größte Verbreitungsgebiet, der Javaneraffe kommt weiter südöstlich als alle anderen nicht-menschlichen Primaten vor, der Berberaffe als einziger in Europa. Besonders artenreich ist die Insel Sulawesi (Celebes), wo es sechs endemische Makakenarten gibt. Mehrere Arten wurden darüber hinaus in verschiedenen Regionen der Erde angesiedelt.

Lebensweise

Makaken sind tagaktive Tiere. Sie können gut klettern, verbringen aber zumindest einen Teil ihres Lebens auf dem Boden. Zwar bevorzugen Makaken baumbestandene Gebiete, bewohnen aber eine Vielzahl von Habitaten. Ihre angepasste Lebensweise reicht von Regenwaldbewohnern bis zu Tieren, die in Gebirgen leben. Der Japanmakak lebt in den schneereichen Gebirgen Japans und hat neben dem Menschen das nördlichste Verbreitungsgebiet aller Primaten. Einige Arten, zum Beispiel der Rhesusaffe, haben sich sogar in großer Zahl in Städten heimisch gemacht.

Makaken leben in Gruppen, deren Größe 10 bis über 100 Tiere umfassen kann. Gruppen bestehen meist aus drei- bis viermal so vielen Weibchen wie Männchen, daneben gibt es auch reine Männergruppen. Innerhalb der Gruppe bestehen Hierarchien sowohl innerhalb der Männchen als auch innerhalb der Weibchen. Junge Männchen verlassen nach dem Eintreten der Geschlechtsreife ihre Gruppe, während junge Weibchen bleiben. Das Territorialverhalten ist nicht sehr ausgeprägt, manchmal teilen sich mehrere Gruppen ein Territorium zur Nahrungssuche. Eine Vielzahl von Lauten und die gegenseitige Fellpflege dienen der Kommunikation und sozialen Interaktion.

Ernährung
Wie die meisten Meerkatzenartigen sind Makaken Allesfresser, sie bevorzugen jedoch pflanzliches Material. Früchte machen bei vielen Arten den Hauptbestandteil der Nahrung aus, zusätzlich verzehren sie auch Blätter, Samen, Blüten, in kühleren Regionen auch Rinde und Baumnadeln. Gelegentlich nehmen sie auch tierische Kost wie Insekten, Vogeleier, Krebstiere und kleine Wirbeltiere zu sich. An den Küsten fressen sie auch Muscheln, deren Schalen sie unter Zuhilfenahme von Steinen öffnen.

Fortpflanzung
Das Anschwellen und Röten des Genitalbereichs der Weibchen deutet den Männchen deren Fruchtbarkeit an. Bei den meisten Arten ist die Fruchtbarkeit saisonabhängig und hängt in erster Linie vom Nahrungsangebot ab. Weibchen und Männchen paaren sich mit mehreren Partnern, eine gewisse Rolle bei der Partnerwahl dürfte der gleiche soziale Rang spielen. Nach durchschnittlich 160- bis 170-tägiger Tragzeit bringt das Weibchen ein Jungtier zur Welt. Dieses wird rund ein Jahr lang gesäugt und erreicht die Geschlechtsreife mit 3 bis 4 Jahren (Weibchen) beziehungsweise 6 bis 7 Jahren (Männchen). Die Lebenserwartung liegt bei rund 15 bis 20 Jahren, in menschlicher Obhut können sie über 30 Jahre alt werden.

Systematik
Die Makaken werden zur Tribus der Pavianartigen (Papionini) gerechnet, wo sie die Subtribus Macacina bilden, die den anderen Arten (Papionina) gegenübersteht.

Insgesamt werden 25 Arten unterschieden, die in sechs Gruppen zusammengefasst werden können:

 M. sylvanus-Gruppe
 Berberaffe oder Magot (Macaca sylvanus)
 M. silenus-Gruppe
 Bartaffe oder Wanderu (M. silenus)
 Nördlicher Schweinsaffe (M. leonina)
 Südlicher Schweinsaffe (M. nemestrina)
 Pagai-Makak (M. pagensis)
 Siberut-Makak (M. siberu)
 Arten aus Sulawesi, eine Untergruppe der M. silenus-Gruppe
 Muna-Butung-Grauarmmakak (M. brunnescens)
 Heck-Makak (M. hecki)
 Mohrenmakak (M. maura)
 Schopfaffe oder Schopfmakak (M. nigra)
 Gorontalo-Makak (M. nigrescens)
 Grauarmmakak (M. ochreata)
 Tonkean-Makak (M. tonkeana)
 M. sinica-Gruppe
 Assam-Makak oder Bergrhesus (M. assamensis)
 Weißwangenmakake (M. leucogenys)
 Arunachalmakak (M. munzala)
 Selamakak (M. sela)
 Ceylon-Hutaffe (M. sinica)
 Indischer Hutaffe (M. radiata)
 Tibetmakak (M. thibetana)
 M. fascicularis-Gruppe
 Javaneraffe oder Langschwanzmakak (M. fascicularis)
 M. mulatta-Gruppe
 Rhesusaffe (M. mulatta)
 Formosa- oder Rundgesichtsmakake (M. cyclopis)
 Japan- oder Rotgesichtsmakak (M. fuscata)
 M. arctoides-Gruppe
 Bärenmakak oder Stumpfschwanzmakak (M. arctoides)

Der Pagai- und der Siberut-Makak wurden früher als Mentawai-Makak zusammengefasst, der Nördliche und der Südliche Schweinsaffe galten bis vor kurzem ebenfalls als eine Art. Der Arunachalmakak wurde erst 2004 wissenschaftlich beschrieben. 2015 wurde der Weißwangenmakake als eigenständige Art beschrieben und 2022 folgte der Selamakak als vorläufig letzte neue Art.

Folgendes Kladogramm, ermittelt durch den Vergleich der mitochondrialen DNA, zeigt die innere Systematik der Makaken:

Makaken und Menschen
Einige Makakenarten sind kulturell eng mit Menschen verbunden. In Malaysia, Indonesien und Thailand werden Makaken zur Kokosnuss-Ernte eingesetzt (s. Kokosnuss). Rhesusaffen gelten in Indien als heilige Tiere und bevölkern oft Tempel und Städte.

Auch als Labortiere finden einige Arten Verwendung. Der Rhesusaffe war Forschungsobjekt bei der Entdeckung des Rhesusfaktors. Gemäß Resultaten aus der molekulargenetischen Forschung ist HIV-2 sehr eng verwandt mit dem unter Rhesusaffen verbreiteten Affenimmunschwächevirus SIVmac. Bei HIV-2 handelt es sich um den weniger virulenten, schwächer verbreiteten AIDS-Erreger als beim Haupttypus HIV-1. Das Halten von Makaken als Heimtier in gewissen Verbreitungsregionen einerseits und die hohe RNS-Sequenzhomologie zwischen HIV-2 und SIVmac andererseits stützen die Hypothese, dass das tödliche Immunschwächevirus vom Affen auf den Menschen übertragen wurde.

Für viele Arten stellt die Zerstörung ihres Lebensraumes die Hauptbedrohung dar. Die beiden auf den Mentawai-Inseln lebenden Arten  (Pagai-Makak und Siberut-Makak) sind vom Aussterben bedroht, gefährdet sind auch die auf Sulawesi endemischen Arten wie der Schopfaffe und der Mohrenmakak.

Typhoon Talas Leaves Trail of Death and Destruction in Japan
Typhoon Talas, which was later downgraded to a tropical storm, battered coastal areas of central Japan with 68 mph winds and record-breaking rainfall of up to 71 inches, before moving offshore into the Sea of Japan. The current death toll is reported at 39 with 54 people still missing. Thousands were stranded as Talas washed out bridges, railways and roads. Japan's Kyodo News Agency reported that dozens of small villages in central Japan were still cut off, primarily because of flooding, landslides or other damage to access roads. Tens of thousands of households were without electricity and land telephone lines remained disrupted Monday night.
Most of the damage occurred on the Kii Peninsula in central Japan southwest of Tokyo and hundreds of miles from the country's tsunami-ravaged northeastern coast. Television footage showed massive landslides crushing wooden houses in mountainous communities, with muddy water submerging streets and washing away wooden debris and cars. Close to half a million people had been evacuated from the region over the weekend.
The government's management of the typhoon is one of the first tests for the new Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda, who was sworn in only one day before the storm made landfall. In one of his first acts in office, Mr Noda vowed that the government would provide assistance as speedily and efficiently as possible as rescue efforts continue across the regions.
Typhoon Talas, which takes its name from a Philippine word that means "sharpness," is believed to be the worst to hit Japan since 2004, when 98 people were killed or reported missing.

Q: Adding an arrayList of random type to an arrayList So I have looked a lot online on how to do this and what I get is this
ArrayList<ArrayList<Type>> arrayLists = new ArrayList<ArrayList<Type>>();
ArrayList<TypeA> typeA = new ArrayList<TypeA>();
ArrayList<TypeB> typeB = new ArrayList<TypeB>();
...

Assuming that I have a class called TypeA, and a class called TypeB, and the array list typeA would contain multiple objects of the class TypeA. The same goes for typeB
Now my question what do I put where Type is for the arrayList, and how do I add an arrayList to arrayLists? If I did this I would get an error:
arrayLists.add(typeA);

I am trying to make a list that contains arrayLists, if my approach is wrong please tell me.

A: If you want an ArrayList which contains ArrayLists with unknown contents, use the type ArrayList<ArrayList<?>> for the outer list.
This code should compile with no problems:
ArrayList<ArrayList<?>> arrayLists = new ArrayList<ArrayList<?>>();
ArrayList<TypeA> typeA = new ArrayList<TypeA>();
ArrayList<TypeB> typeB = new ArrayList<TypeB>();

arrayLists.add(typeA);
arrayLists.add(typeB);

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. -- The Covenant men's tennis team was once again selected as the preseason favorite in the West Division of the USA South, as the conference unveiled its preseason coaches' poll on Wednesday.
Each divisional preseason poll only includes votes from coaches within that particular division-only. Head coaches do not vote for their own teams in the balloting.
Covenant is coming off back-to-back regular season titles in the West Division of the conference. The Scots finished last season with a program record 15 victories and ranked No. 17 in the region.
It is the second straight year that Covenant has claimed the top spot in the preseason poll. The Scots, under the direction of seventh-year head coach John Hirte, collected four of the six first place votes in the division and 33 points overall to share the top spot in the poll with Piedmont. The Lions received the other two first place tallies and totaled 33 points. LaGrange (25 points), Huntingdon (20 points), and Brevard (18 points) rounded out the top five in the West Division.
In the East, N.C. Wesleyan claimed five first place votes and 25 points to be selected at the No. 1 spot. The Battling Bishops won the East Division and the USA South Tournament title last season. Methodist, Averett, Pfeiffer, and William Peace completed the top five.
Covenant opens the fall season on Saturday, Feb. 9 at region foe Birmingham Southern. The home opener is set for Feb. 22 against Centre.


Social Media Marketing is making use of different social networking sites to promote your products, services and to build your brand.
All businesses should use social media marketing! If you want to grow your business and market to an online customer base then this is essential.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO), attract the attention of the larger Internet Search Engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing for example..
If the world is not aware of your business, then it can't be found or seen so Social Media attracts customers. If a customer knows about your business, they can in turn tell other people about your business and by word of mouth the message will spread.
Social Media Marketing is the Internets' Word-of-Mouth and the Internet is Enormous! If you apply Social Media Marketing properly, existing and new customers will come to you before they use a search engine.
Social Media Marketing is an investment of time and money. This is where relationships with your customers are built. It is vital to plan and budget your company's social networking activities and determine your goals and strive to meet them?
Use it to drive traffic to your website and ensure that customer complaints can be addressed quickly and effectively. Focus on one goal at a time and add new ones as you move along.
Use Social Media consistently and post updates and news on a daily basis. People want to have a consistent communication from you. Company blog posts, as often as you feel is needed. Maintenance is of crucial importance. People want to know that you care, so don't stop updating.
Only reach out when you have something of value to offer. Do not add clutter to customer timelines and feeds. You will lose followers. "Something valuable" does not mean a well-priced product. Social networking is all about engagement. Ask questions, give advice, be clever and then you offer your well-priced product.
Social networking is people talking to people, so show your humanity. Facebook, Twitter and YouTube Marketing rely on social networking. Your business needs to show that it cares about the people it networks with.
Social Media Marketing is not an exact science so experiment and track your results if possible. Determine how much explicit advertising your target audience can accept as part of your Social Media campaign. What works for one business, may not work for another.
The Internet is always changing, so evaluate, re-evalute and then adapt. If an Social Media strategy is no longer working for you, try something new.

St. Cyril of Jerusalem was Bishop of Jerusalem and Doctor of the Church. He was born about 315; died probably March 18, 386. In the East his feast is observed on the 18th of March, in the West on the 18th or 20th. Little is known of his life. We gather information concerning him from his younger contemporaries, Epiphanius, Jerome, and Rufinus, as well as from the fifth-century historians, Socrates, Sozomen and Theodoret. Cyril himself gives us the date of his "Catecheses" as fully seventy years after the Emperor Probus, that is about 347, if he is exact. Constans (d. 350) was then still alive. Mader thinks Cyril was already bishop, but it is usually held that he was at this date only as a priest. St. Jerome relates (Chron. ad ann. 352) that Cyril had been ordained priest by St. Maximus, his predecessor, after whose death the episcopate was promised to Cyril by the metropolitan, Acacius of Caesarea, and the other Arian bishops, on condition that he should repudiate the ordination he had received from Maximus. He consented to minister as deacon only, and was rewarded for this impiety with the see. Maximus had consecrated Heraclius to succeed himself, but Cyril, by various frauds, degraded Heraclius to the priesthood. So says St. Jerome; but Socrates relates that Acacius drove out St. Maximus and substituted St. Cyril. A quarrel soon broke out between Cyril and Acacius, apparently on a question of precedence or jurisdiction. At Nicaea the metropolitan rights of Caesarea had been guarded, while a special dignity had been granted to Jerusalem. Yet St. Maximus had held a synod and had ordained bishops. This may have been as much as the cause of Acacius' enmity to him as his attachment to the Nicene formula. On the other hand, Cyril's correct Christology may have been the real though veiled ground of the hostility of Acacius to him. At all events, in 357 Acacius caused Cyril to be exiled on the charge of selling church furniture during a famine. Cyril took refuge with Silvanus, Bishop of Taraus. He appeared at the Council of Seleucia in 359, in which the Semi-Arian party was triumphant. Acacius was deposed and St. Cyril seems to have returned to his see. But the emperor was displeased at the turn of events, and, in 360, Cyril and other moderates were again driven out, and only returned at the accession of Julian in 361. In 367 a decree of Valens banished all the bishops who had been restored by Julian, and Cyril remained in exile until the death of the persecutor in 378. In 380, St. Gregory of Nyssa came to Jerusalem on the recommendation of a council held at Antioch in the preceding year. He found the Faith in accord with the truth, but the city a prey to parties and corrupt in morals. St. Cyril attended the great Council of Constantinople in 381, at which Theodosius had ordered the Nicene faith, now a law of the empire, to be promulgated. St. Cyril then formally accepted the homoousion; Socrates and Sozomen call this an act of repentance. Socrates gives 385 for St. Cyril's death, but St. Jerome tells us that St. Cyril lived eight years under Theodosius, that is, from January 379.
St. Cyril's teaching about the Blessed Sacrament is of the first importance, for he was speaking freely, untrammelled by the "discipline of the secret". On the Real Presence he is unambiguous: "Since He Himself has declared and said of the bread: This is My Body, who shall dare to doubt any more? And when He asserts and says: This is My Blood, who shall ever hesitate and say it is not His Blood?" Of the Transformation, he argues, if Christ could change water into wine, can He not change wine into His own Blood? The bread and wine are symbols: "In the type of bread is given thee the Body, in the type of wine the Blood is given thee"; but they do not remain in their original condition, they have been changed, though the senses cannot tell us this: "Do not think it mere bread and wine, for it is the Body and Blood of Christ, according to the Lord's declaration". "Having learned this and being assured of it, that appears to be bread is not bread, though perceived by the taste, but the Body of Christ, and what appears to be wine is not wine, though the taste says so, but the Blood of Christ . . . strengthen thy heart, partaking of it as spiritual (food), and rejoice the face of thy soul". It is difficult not to see the whole doctrine of Transubstantiation in these explicit words.
Confirmation is with blessed chrism: "As the bread of the Eucharist after the invocation of the Holy Ghost is not bread, but the Body of Christ, so this holy myrrh is no longer simple, as one might say, after the invocation, but a gift of Christ and capable by the presence of the Holy Ghost of giving His divinity" (ii, 4). St. Peter and St. Paul went to Rome, the heads (prostatai) of the Church. Peter is ho koryphaiotatos kai protostates ton apostolon. The Faith is to be proved out of Holy Scripture. St. Cyril, as the Greek Fathers generally, gives the Hebrew canon of the Old Testament omitting the deutero-canonical books. But yet he often quotes them as Scripture. In the New Testament he does not acknowledge the Apocalypse.
as to have life ever more abundantly.


It's not always a good thing to have a Guardian Angel looking over your shoulder.
A tip collected by the red-bereted anti-crime group apparently led to the Wednesday morning arrest of a subway groping suspect accused of fondling a woman's backside before bizarrely flashing a thumbs-up as he fled, police said.
Matthew Maldonado, 33, of Manhattan was busted on charges of forcible touching and sexual abuse in the Nov. 28 incident abound a southbound A train, cops said Wednesday.
His arrest came after the Guardian Angels' "Perv Busters" patrol distributed fliers with the suspect's photo in the subway, with one straphanger sending an email tip after recognizing the man.
Angels founder Curtis Sliwa hand-delivered the information to police in the Columbus Circle subway station, and the suspect was in custody within 12 hours.
The 34-year-old victim was aboard the downtown train near the 14th St. station when the groping occurred at 9:40 a.m. The cocky suspect paused, looking into the cell phone camera and made the thumbs-up gesture when another subway rider snapped his photo.

Jewish Nazi collaborators
Secret police
Ghettos in Nazi-occupied Europe
Townhouse at 93 "Solidarność" Avenue (formerly 13 Leszno Street) in Warsaw, in 1940–1941 the seat of Trzynastka
The Group Thirteen network (Polish language: Trzynastka , Yiddish: Das Draitzental) was a Jewish collaborationist organisation in the Warsaw Ghetto during the occupation of Poland in World War II. The Thirteen took its informal name from the address of its main office at 13 Leszno Street in Warsaw. The group was founded in December 1940 and led by Abraham Gancwajch,[1] the former head of Hashomer Hatzair in Łódź.[2] Sanctioned by Sicherheitsdienst (SD),[3] and also known as the Jewish Gestapo,[4] the unit reported directly to the German Gestapo office.[5]
The group vied for control of the ghetto with the Judenrat,[4] and infiltrated the Jewish opposition within the ghetto.[5] The group's most important branch was the Office to Combat Usury and Profiteering in the Jewish Quarter of Warsaw.[6] Supposed to fight the black market, it actually collected large sums via racketeering, blackmail and extortions.[3][4] The group also ran its own prison. In total, the group numbered between three and four hundred uniformed Jewish officers, distinguished by caps with green bands.[6] In July 1941 the Group 13 lost to the Judenrat in the political arena and the Office was incorporated into the Jupo police force.[4]
After the Office was closed, the active members of the Group 13 centered on Gancwajch, and concentrated their efforts on setting up their own infirmary and ambulance service (the so-called Emergency Service, or the First Aid Station, which was created in May 1941). However, the company's resources soon became used predominantly for smuggling and contraband.[3][4] They also ran other operations, for example a brothel at the 'Britannica' hotel.[4] They had near total control over the horse-drawn carriages and all transportation within the ghetto.[3]
Leadership split
In mid-1941, shortly before the Office was closed, there was a split in the Group leadership, when Morris Kohn and Zelig Heller broke with Gancwajch and established their own organizations.[4] Kohn and Heller eventually outlasted the Group. Their demise only came during the mass deportations from the ghetto to Treblinka extermination camp in the course of Grossaktion Warsaw.[3] The rise and fall of the Group was likely related to the struggles for power between various factions in the German military staff and bureaucracy who supported various factions in the Ghetto for their own financial benefits.[3]
In April 1942 many members of the Group 13 were executed by the Germans in Operation Reinhard.[4] Gancwajch and surviving members of the group later re-emerged posing as Jewish underground fighters, though in reality they were hunting for Poles hiding or otherwise supporting the Jews. After closing the Jewish Gestapo, Gancwajch stayed in Warsaw outside the ghetto, where he continued working for the Nazis.[4] He was rumored to have died around 1943;[1][4] a hypothesis about his post-war collaboration with NKVD was never confirmed.

Three households to mix for five days over Christmas
Coronavirus latest: Three households to mix over Christmas
By Sarah Cartlidge @sarahcartlidge Audience and Content Editor
Families will be reunited for up to five days over Christmas after ministers from across the UK agreed to relax coronavirus restrictions.
Up to three households will be allowed to mix from December 23 to 27, Government sources indicated.
A Cobra meeting bringing together the UK Government and the devolved administrations is being held to agree on a four-nation approach to relaxing coronavirus restrictions over the festive period.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson has acknowledged the risks involved in a Christmas relaxation, saying it is the "season to be jolly careful", but is determined to give families the chance to meet up at the end of a grim year.
SEE MORE - What you can do in tiers 1, 2 and 3 from December 2
In England, the Government has already announced new tiered restrictions which will come into effect on December 2 and could last until the end of March – apart from any Christmas relaxation.
More parts of England are expected to be placed into higher tiers than they were before the national restrictions were imposed.
The PM also said that the new tiers would be tougher than their predecessors after Government scientific advisers said the previous regime did not do enough to tackle the virus.


We've got them so we know that once you've got kids, going to the beach becomes an expedition. Here are the Gran Canaria beaches that have the safe water, easy-access facilities and activities to make a family beach day as effortless as possible.
The ultimate family beach with something for everyone. The north end is wide with golden sand and calm water; perfect for swimming, sunbathing and entertaining little kids. The south end has the waves for the bigger kids to learn their board skills and play in the surf. All along the beach you can sit by the sand with a beer while the kids eat an ice cream on the sand.
Las Canteras beach has all the facilities you need for a family day out; toilets, showers, loungers and parasols, shops, lifeguards, etc, but is also big enough for you to ignore them all.
Toilet and shower facilities are dotted along the beach. Look out for the signs and wash your feet before you try to get in (the staff are pedantic).
From an afternoon of sandcastle making to an epic family swim out to the reef, Las Canteras beach in north Gran Canaria.
Alex says: Las Canteras is a marine reserve so the snorkelling is excellent. Go in off Playa Chica in the middle of the beach and head out to the reef.
The ultimate resort beach with everything at hand. Amadores is sunny, calm and caters to people who want effortless days on the beach. There's plenty of loungers and parasols, dozens of bars and restaurants selling everything from curry to take away pizza.
The water is warm and calm and there's plenty of free parking right by the sand (arrive before 11 am for a good spot). Pedalo hire is at the east end of the beach on the pontoon.
Toilets are central between the two strips of restaurants. They cost 50 cents per person to use.
Gran Canaria's Caribbean beach is perfect for families with soft, white sand, calm waters and a great takeaway kiosk selling pizza, ice cream, and coffee. It's a bit of a trek down the hill from the paid car parks but you can use the Anfi Resort lifts rather than lug the toys down the hill.
Pedalo and SUP board hire at the west end of the beach (you can't miss them). Toilets behind the promenade in the centre of the beach (free for boys, 50 cent for girls; disgraceful, we know).
This is a beach and a desert all in one. With kilometres of golden sand and huge dunes just by the water, it's the Gran Canaria beach that gets kids most excited. Maspalomas has lifeguards, snack kiosks and lounger hire but no public toilets.
Maspalomas can get busy, but there's always plenty of room for the kids to roam.
Park for free behind the big hotels just east of the lighthouse (drive down Avenida Colon and turn right at the roundabout); you may have to walk for a few minutes on busy days. There's also a paid car park just behind the bus station.
Alex says: Please don't feed the fish in the lagoon. It wrecks the delicate ecosystem.
The other end of the vast beach that stretches from the Maspalomas lighthouse to Playa del Inglés. The PDI end is more developed with the Annexo II strip of bars and restaurants (even a McDonalds if you like that sort of thing) along the beach.
Loungers and parasols for hire, lifeguards at intervals and snack kiosks. Jet skis and banana boat rides, etc at the east end of the beach.
Most people walk down to Playa del Inglés beach from the resort but if you drive, there's paid parking behind Annexo II.
Calm with golden sand and shops and restaurants just yards from the sand, Puerto de Mogán is the best place for a leisurely family lunch by the beach. It has lifeguards, loungers and parasols, pedalo hire, and the toilets are in a wooden hut just by the main bridge over to the marina.
Arrive early for free parking in Puerto de Mogán, especially on Mondays and Fridays when the markets are on. Don't park along the harbour wall on a Friday as it gets cut off by the market and parked cars are pushed into the sea (joke).
The only pebble beach in our top ten but we had to include it because it's such a laid back place to spend a family day and anyway, kids love throwing pebbles into the sea. Puerto de las Nieves beach is right in the town and there are plenty of places to eat with a beach view.
Parking is easy on weekdays in the streets behind the beach and paid parking pòps up at the weekends; look for men waving at empty patches of land.
Lex Says: Big kids enjoy jumping off the old jetty by the beach: Watch the local kids for the deep bits.
You can't go wrong with Puerto Rico beach as it has everything a family needs to spend a relaxed day by the sea; calm water, all the facilities you need and lots of places to get a meal and a beer right by the sand. Pedalo hire is at the west end of the beach and the toilets are at the east end. Loungers are everywhere.
Pedalo hire is at the west end of the beach and the toilets are at the east end. Loungers are everywhere. Park in the paid car park at Puerto Base marina (east end).
Parking at San Agustín is easy in the streets behind the sand unless you arrive late at the weekends. The famous El Capitan restaurant by the beach has plenty of space for the kids and a play area.
All families need a holiday adventure and older kids love the hike from the road down the Barranco to Tiritaña beach. It's a bit steep in places and there's no real trail but it's not dangerous for older kids and you can't get lost. Once you get down to the shore you'll likely have it to yourselves. A Robinson Crusoe day just a few minutes drive or bus ride away from the resorts.

Crisis and perspectives on policy change: Swedish counter-terrorism policymaking
Hansén, D.H.
(2007) Publication / Swedish National Defence College, Crismart, volume 34
(Dissertation)
Supervisor(s): Hart, Paul 't
Crisis experience are often said to be catalysts for policy change. A look back at the policy change initiatives in counter-terrorism policy post 9/11, 3/11 and 7/7, suggests a clear pattern. Crises generate policy change. However, prior to these attacks Swedish counter-terrorism policy change followed a very different course. This ... read more thesis delves into the policymaking effects of three Swedish crises: the 1972 Bulltofta skyjacking, the 1975 seizure of the West-German Stockholm Embassy and the 1986 murder of Prime Minister Olof Palme. The first crisis created swift policy change which led to the Terrorist Act. But the occupation of the West-German embassy was followed by a decade of policy stasis. The murder of Prime Minister Olof Palme instigated major changes of Swedish counter-terrorism policies, even though the murder has never been proven as an act of terrorism. The experiences are puzzling. This thesis casts explanatory light on Swedish counter-terrorism policy development. The thesis argues that Swedish policy makers have been heavily influenced by cognitive biases when interpreting crises, which has had a moderating effect on policy change initiatives. Major policy changes or innovations have occurred, although these have been in keeping with dominant policy core beliefs, if such have prevailed. The changes however needed entrepreneurial exertion to come about. Government and administrative turnovers have had little impact on changing the constituencies for certain belief structures. Interestingly, crises of types other than the three investigated in particular here, such as scandals and affairs, have had a decisive impact on policy outcomes. They have not sparked off new counter-terrorism policy initiatives, but have been used by policy entrepreneurs to bend the understanding of problems, and they have reinforced cognitive biases. show less

Zakk Wylde appears to be adding a fourth guitar to the growing stable of instruments offered by his Wylde Audio company.
On July 6, he tweeted the new Barbarian guitar via Wylde Audio's Twitter account. The guitar features a modified SG-shape and continues the slightly unusual designs found on his other three guitar offerings: the Viking V, the Les Paul–inspired Odin, and the the Flying V–SG hybrid Warhammer.
This photo shows three Barbarian prototypes in red, natural and sunburst finishes.
On July 7, Wylde tweeted a photo of the natural-finish model, along with some specs that include a mahogany body, maple tiger top, maple neck, ebony fretboard, TonePros hardware, EMG's Zakk Wylde 81/85 pickup set and 6000 fretwire.
No word yet on the status or availability of the Barbarian, but we'll keep you posted.Wylde Audio debuted at NAMM 2016. The company's products are distributed worldwide through Schecter Guitar Research's distributor network covering 70 countries, including the U.S.

ha ha.. Forget playing bridge, arresting pensioners for playing dominos..
BANGKOK: -- Eight pensioners have been arrested in Bangkok for playing dominos.
The raid was carried out by Thai soldiers on an address in Pathumwan, Bangkok.
The seniors - all aged 60 - 70 - were hauled off to the police station on Tuesday to face charges of gambling, reported Daily News.
Taken into evidence were two sets of dominos, playing cards, mahjong sets and some dice. One man was named - he was 52 year old Samart Woranathorrocha who was overseeing the den in Soi Phraya unthorn Phimon.
Thirty two aging members of the Pattaya bridge club were hauled into custody in February in a story that hit the international headlines.
A 'den' no less !!
