The 'Fossanova Abbey, built at the dawn of the' Order of the Benedictines,expanded during the eleventh and twelfth centuries in the past to the Cistercian monks, who developed the reclamation of the nearby swampy allowing the spiritual rebirth, social and economic.
The church was built in the second half of 1100 with the help of FrederickBarbarossa "Fridericus Emperor Augustus always hoc opus fecit proud."
In the abbey, where he met his death St. Thomas Aquinas, a Studium Artiumdeveloped for the training of monks, many of whom brought with the secrets of the influence of Fossanova sites in the surrounding area.

Even before the settlement of the Cistercian monks, the place was inhabited byBenedictine monks who had built a monastery with the title St. Stephen the First Martyr, where he also lived Gregory IV dell'827 first year of his election to thepapacy. Later, probably around the year one thousand, the monastery was therestructuring and expansion, of which still remain well preserved, the three sides of the Romanesque cloister.

Valvisciolo Abbey
The "Valvisciolo Abbey", mysterious both in its name from the double meaning, or Valley of Sour Cherry Valley Nightingale, both for the origins attributed to the Basilian monks and the Knights of the Temple, replaced by the Cistercian order was suppressed after the temple, with the Church, the Cloisters and Chapter House, where a portion of plaster is engraved words in medieval characters SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS included, unique, in a circle divided into twenty-five parts by five concentric rings and five areas ...

Casamari Abbey
The abbey of Casamari is situated in the territory of Veroli (Frosinone), on the Via Maria, mid-way between Frosinone and Sora, and lies on a rocky hill sloping down to the torrent Amaseno, at about 300 metres above sea-level. It was built on the ruins of an ancient Roman municipium named Cereatae, being dedicated to the goddess Ceres, at Marianae, for it was the birthplace, or at least a residence, of Caius Marius, from whom the abbey later derived its name. The documents witness the presence of a Benedectine monastic community in the 11th century, under the name of Casamari.

You are correct. $ is a part of the name of the variable.
It is just easier to identify the type of the contents..
In your example $val and val will be two different variable names.
syom - in my case, i use the $ prefix to indicate that it's a variable that is referenced by jquery. It's purely a part of the variable and not a reserved character.
keeps it easy to identify in long code runs..
jQuery caching elements, difference between $variable and variable?
Why won't innerHTML work for me?


Better than your birthday: a box of rare and unusual bulbs.
Jānis's nursery is in Latvia (the catalog, fortunately for most of us, is in English), and he has spent decades scouring Europe and Asia for choice bulbs, corms, tubers, and rhizomes (all collected as seed and subsequently nursery-propagated). These are not the plants that the Dutch turn out by the billions—they're the gems of high mountains and desert plateaus, of Siberian forests and Greek hillsides. And be warned: because they're true rarities, they sometimes carry a price tag that will leave you reeling with sticker shock—there are species that sell for 50, 80, or even 100 euros per bulb. Is it lunacy to pay that much for a plant that might wind up as slug fodder? That depends on the depth of your obsession and whether you think the children really need that college education.
But leaf through the catalog, and I promise you will encounter scores of plants you've never even heard of, let alone seen—astonishing alliums, curious crocuses, fabulous fritillaries, incredible irises, memorable muscari, scintillating scillas, tantalizing tulips. Most dazzling of all are the tuberous corydalis, and if you don't grow any now, you'll want to, you'll need to, after reading some of the descriptions. The majority of the species offered are shade tolerant, hardy to about Zone 4, and ridiculously easy to grow. Why they haven't become a mainstay of the early-spring garden is a mystery I can't even begin to fathom.
Allium litvinovii,a tough but beautiful ornamental onion from Uzbekistan.
Crocus abantensis, a Turkish species that comes close to true blue.
Corydalis schanginii subsp. ainae--a "bulb belt" species that, unlike the woodland corydalis, prefers a warm, dry summer.
Iris rosenbachiana 'Harangon'--an impossibly beautiful Juno iris.
Tulipa karabachensis is like a dwarf lily-flowered tulip.
I will say simply that few things give me as much pleasure as the arrival in early fall of a small brown box bearing a Latvian return address. (You don't, by the way, need an import permit, and Jānis supplies the requisite phytosanitary certificate and other documentation.) To order the catalog, send $5 cash to Jānis Rukšāns Bulb Nursery, P.O. Stalbe, LV-4151 Cesis distr., Latvia. And don't dilly-dally—orders need to be placed by August 1.
And if you decide that the children really do need that college education, don't forget some of the other wonderful bulb merchants who are closer to home and whose offerings aren't priced quite so stratospherically (Brent and Becky's Bulbs, Odyssey Bulbs, Old House Gardens, Pacific Rim Native Plant Nursery, Telos Rare Bulbs). Because, in this sad and weary world, we need as many blurps of gaiety as we can get.
I'm still reeling from your ability to decline an article with that phrase contained within. I think we need a horticultural version of The Onion for such fine offerings.
And oh my gosh, I need that Corydalis.
Well, after seeing those beauties, my snowdrops and cyclamen coum seem rather mundane. How delightful that you shared the source AND the photos.
Wow Tom, those are luscious and drool worthy.
speaking of which, I saw the first Daffodils blooming today.
I think it is very unfair of you to be flaunting the fact your reticulatas are already "showing themselves." I say they are hussies.
I'm ready for a blurp or two! (More than about two blurps starts to hint less of gaiety than stomach upset, which is not the effect I hope to garner upon sight of my bulb collection.) I love all the unusual crocus species – Jane McGary had some really good ones. Thanks for the lovely photos. Crocus abantensis looks like silk. That's not what is meant by "watered silk," is it?


New funds have been set aside for government-backed student loans in the latest federal Budget.
As part of a new skills drive by the government, $243 has been allocated to vocational education and training programs during the next four years, which includes funds for student loans and benchmarks to improve teacher quality.
While it may be a positive step for Aussies looking to compare student loans and secure better student finances, the Budget has also been slammed by lobby groups for its limited benefits for the needy.
Frank Quinlan, executive director of Catholic Social Services Australia, said the Budget had achieved economic balance "but possibly at the price of social imbalance", adding that there was little evidence of a serious investment in tackling social inequality.
In addition to more training and student financing, the Budget allocated an additional $2.2 billion to the health sector.
Meanwhile, the Westside News recently reported that the financial worries of bright, final-year student at the University of Queensland have been eased after he won the prestigious Frank Finn Scholarship.

If Vaccines Are the Answer, Why Not Mandate Them?
Rueben Wright
Rueben Wright Published: July 28, 2021
Joshua Roberts, Getty Images
Before we even get rolling on this, I want to put this out up front: I am not in favor of making the vaccine mandatory. There's a lot of reasons why I feel that way, some of which we'll probably get into in this article, but overall, I just don't think that's the way to go. However, with that out the way, I do find it shocking that no politician, especially from states where COVID numbers are high like Louisiana, has brought it up or is publicly pushing for it.
Can the Government Mandate Vaccines?
Despite what you may see online, the Government can legally mandate vaccines. Employers also have every legal right to mandate you getting vaccinated. Both issues have been put in front of the Supreme Court numerous times and the Court has green lit it every time. There's precedent and if you try to fight it, you will more than likely lose.
Just look up Jacobson v Massachusetts from 1905. That is the main case brought when it relates to mandatory vaccinations. Basically, the Supreme Court ruled that individual liberty is not absolute and is subject to the police power of the state. The Jacobson case is what was cited while upholding mask mandates, stay at home orders and other recent cases during the COVID pandemic.
Why Hasn't The Move Been Made to Mandate the COVID Shot?
So, here's the question: If the vaccine is the answer, why not mandate it? The majority of doctors, politicians and experts say that the COVID shot saves lives. They have the legal grounds and legal precedent to do it. So, why isn't any one taking the steps to mandate it? I get that it is a political issue that could potential cause a ton of people to get voted out of office. But, it's about saving lives, right? Plus, by reinstituting other mandates and restrictions, arguably, you are causing more damage to people's lives and livelihoods. So, as the old saying goes "something, something, something or get off the pot".
What Options Are There to Combat COVID?
The reality of the COVID pandemic is this: there are 3 options, only 2 of which make sense. You can: A) Mandate the vaccine. B) Open everything back up and let people make their own decisions. or C) Lock everything back down indefinitely and ruin people's lives. A & B are the only reasonable options. C is just stupid, irresponsible and reckless...so, I don't even really want to count that as a viable option.
Going back to the first sentence of this article, I don't think the government should make the vaccine mandatory. Unlike the smallpox epidemic which had a 17% fatality rate, the likelihood of surviving COVID is much higher. We don't mandate the flu vaccine or any number of things. Does it suck watching people get sick and suffer? Yes, it absolutely does. Does it suck that doctors and nurses are having to pull extra shifts treating people with COVID? I'm sure it does.
But, at this juncture in time, the vaccine is optional. Some employers are starting to mandate it, which is their legal right. But, the vaccine is an option. If you chose not to take that option, that is your right. If your employer mandates it, you have the option to quit and work somewhere else. That's how choices and options work. You don't have to like it, but you don't have to work there. There's another option. So, this idea of putting everyone in 'time out' by locking things down and reissuing restrictions because people didn't get something that is optional is just ridiculous.
Not everything that is legal is right. And not everything that is right is legal. But in the case of COVID, the options are pretty cut and dry: mandate the vaccine or leave people alone. "Tweet or get off the branch".

C&L Late Nite Music Club With Lulu
Roger Moore passed away today. The first James Bond film I saw in a theater had him in the starring role. That film was the one this was that tonight's song was the title track for. Sure, it's a bit cheesy and slightly bombastic but isn't that what all things Roger Moore Bond were about?
Alice Cooper claims his song of the same name that appears on Muscle Of Love album was supposed to be the original theme to the film but claims the producers dropped in for the song Lulu sang.
What are you listening to tonight?
'A Nightmare Scenario': Did Trump Ask Intel Officers To Stifle Investigation?
So Director of National Intelligence and former Republican Senator Dan Coats would say out loud and on camera what Trump said to him about the investigation. His overly hesitant answer to the Senate Intelligence Committee starts at the :47 mark. See if you can count the um's and ah's while talking about the so-called president:
DAN COATS: Uh, I do believe that uh, the, um, information and discussions that I have had with the president uh, are s-s-s-something that should not be, um, disclosed. On the other hand, uh, if I'm called before an investigative committee, I would certainly provide them with what I know and what I don't know.
Former CIA Chief and MSNBC analyst John McLaughlin (the other one) was not asked, not prompted, but had to speak up at the end of this clip.
MCLAUGHLIN: Frankly, Andrea, that would be a nightmare scenario, to have a president ask you to shut down the investigation. You would know instantly: that is inappropriate. And the instinct would be to write that down and keep a statement of it.
The question remains as ever: What the hell will the Republicans in Congress DO about it?
At some point there will be a tape of Trump literally saying "let's obstruct some justice" and the GOP will still do nothing.

Sean Hannity Spirals Out Of Control After Fox News' Retracts Seth Rich Story (UPDATED)
For the past week, Sean Hannity has furiously flogged his ridiculous and outrageous Seth Rich conspiracies to distract Fox News viewers from the more important (and damaging) news of the day about Trump and his escapades with Russian spies.
But today, Fox News put an end to the Seth Rich story, admitting that their invention was just that — fiction — and retracting the story.
"On May 16, a story was posted on the Fox News website on the investigation into the 2016 murder of DNC Staffer Seth Rich. The article was not initially subjected to the high degree of editorial scrutiny we require for all our reporting," Fox said in their written statement. "Upon appropriate review, the article was found not to meet those standards and has since been removed."
At the time of the retraction, there was some question as to whether Hannity would stand down on his frenzied flog of the story. His reaction was predictable. Watch the video if you dare, but the majority of his rant is in the transcript below.
Richard Blumenthal Spells Out A Prosecutor's Case Against Trump
On Hardball, Senator Richard Blumenthal explains to Chris Matthews how Donald Trump's multiple attempts to influence the investigation into TrumpRussia is proof of his intent to obstruct justice.
Matthews reminded viewers the former National Security Adviser refused to turn over the documents about his ties to Russia that requested by the Intelligence committee.
"He's invoking the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination by holding back his documents. His lawyers said "de-escalating public frenzy" against him. Then he said, pleading the Fifth is not something innocent people do," he said before showing a Trump clip.
So there are five people taking the Fifth Amendment, like you see on the mob, right? You see the mob takes the Fifth. If you're innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?
Matthews repeated, "If you're innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?" He said Flynn was asking for immunity. "During the campaign, he said this about people who seek immunity, let's watch."
"Five people around her have been given immunity to, include her former chief of staff, when you are given immunity, that means you've probably committed a crime. It keeps adding to this chain of events. Thank you, Judiciary Committee."
Kid Shot In Gut. Pro-gun Sheriff Charges Gun Owner With Misdemeanor
Last Monday, May 15th, 7-year old Gage Meche was accidentally shot at Moss Bluff Elementary School in Louisiana. A 7-year old student had brought a handgun to school that morning. It fell out of his backpack and a second elementary student picked up the gun and fired it, hitting Meche in the stomach. After undergoing several hours of surgery at Lafayette General Hospital, the 7-year old is in stable condition.
Calcasieu Parish Sheriff Tony Mancuso said that neither the student who brought the gun, nor the student who accidentally fired the gun will be held responsible for the accident due to their age.
On Thursday, May 18th, Michael Lane Dugas, 50, and Jake Abram Dugas, 17, both of Moss Bluff, were charged with negligent injuring. Michael Dugas is also charged with improper supervision of a minor
Two-Track Trump Takedown
Democrats and the progressive movement need to figure out how to balance two very different but equally important imperatives: keeping the heat on Trump for all the egregious scandals of his presidency, and making sure voters and the media fully understand the consequences of the terrible policies being enacted while no one is paying attention because of the Trump distraction machine.
As one of the people who fought the last big impeachment fight and played a modest role in helping Wes Boyd and Joan Blades create the Moveon.org effort around that fight in 1998, I feel like we need an organization named "LetsNotMoveOn.org." We can't let Trump get away with shredding the Constitution and violating law after law, and ethical norm after ethical norm, that were put in place after Watergate to safeguard this country from corruption. Trump should not be allowed to obstruct justice and stop the legitimate and extremely important investigations into the attack on our electoral integrity by a foreign adversary.
Kimberly Guilfoyle Calls Roger Ailes A 'Champion Of Women'
In its report on Roger Ailes' funeral, conservative Lifezette noted that Kimberly Guilfoyle called him a "champion of women."
In a rather lengthy account of Ailes' funeral by Laura Ingraham's Lifezette website, there was this brief but noteworthy sentence:
Longtime personality Kimberly Guilfoyle remembered Ailes as a "champion of women."
Regardless of how Guilfoyle may have remembered him, it's pretty incontrovertible that Ailes was a serial harasser of women.
Israel Ambassador's Quick Save When He Facepalms At Trump

Mick Mulvaney Hopes Fewer People Get Social Security Disability Benefits
If you are receiving Social Security Disability benefits, White House Budget Director Mick "Freedom Caucus" Mulvaney would like you to know that he considers you a moocher and your disability to be something you'll just have to deal with.
When asked about SSDI, Mulvaney described it as a "welfare program for permanent — for the long-term disabled." He went on to claim that it is not Social Security as we know it.
Except, of course it is. When your Social Security payroll taxes are paid, a portion of them go specifically to disability benefits as well as retirement benefits. So that claim is nonsense.
When asked whether people who currently receive SSDI benefits would receive less as a result of the budget proposal, Mulvaney answered, "I hope so." He added, "If there are people who are getting SSDI who should not be getting it."
But that wasn't the question. The question was whether people who are currently on SSDI would be receiving less.
When pressed, Mulvaney admitted that there are some people who are "really disabled" and "need this program," but went on to claim that there's rampant fraud and waste to be dealt with.
He wrapped up his rant against the moochers with this. "That's not — we have plenty of money in this country to take care of the people who need help. Okay? And we will do that. We don't have enough money to take care of people — everybody who doesn't need help. So what we try and do is look at these programs, again, through the perspective of the people paying for it."

Feel your best. Look even better. Our goal is to treat you– our clientღ– year-round in an effective and proficient manner. The magic begins here!
Our laser hair removal treatments will grant you freedom towards a hairless body– removing your unwanted hair while leaving your skin smooth, silky, and seemingly untouched. To begin the process, a consultation is required where an experienced laser cosmetician will evaluate you and identify the appropriate procedures needed.
We are pleased to offer our FDA-approved laser technology– Alma Soprano Ice– that safely and effectively treats clients of all skin tones with exceptional results. Considered gold standard in the laser hair removal industry; our lasers offer optimal results for hair removal, pigmented lesions, and treatment of sun-damaged skin.
Depending on the size of the area being treated and the density of hair growth, a laser hair removal session can take anywhere from a few minutes to over an hour. The full procedure typically requires 6-12 sessions to see full, desired results.
A more beautiful you with rejuvenated skin firmness and a toned look of youth is possible through Infinity Laser Spas' Dual-layer Thermotherapy. This revolutionary skin tightening regimen uses advanced radio frequency (RF) technology to treat wrinkles non-invasively and stimulate the production of collagen. Multiple clinical studies and thousands of satisfied patients have proven our treatments effectiveness in tightening loose skin, promoting healthy collagen production, and improving body contours. You will witness noticeable and satisfying results quicker compared to any other skin treatment systems.
Ultrasound cavitation is a relatively new aesthetic treatment. Cavitation is a body sculpting treatment with no anesthesia, no scars, no discomfort, no downtime and presents a risk-free alternative to liposuction. The result is instant loss of fat cells.
Using leading-edge technology it converts fat cells into liquid which can then be naturally drained by the body's own natural filtration system. When the treatment of ultrasound cavitation is followed by lymphatic drainage the process becomes faster as the drainage is very effective at eliminating liquids.
Generally, one fat cavitation treatment lasts 20-30 minutes where a single part of the body is treated. 72 hours must pass between each session so that the body can eliminate the fat. The suggested number of sessions for fat cavitation are between 6 and 10.
Botox & Dysport are prescription injections for temporary improvement of moderate to severe lines in the face such as crow's feet and frown lines between the brows. Both of these injectable treatments are FDA-approved and visibly soften and relax expression lines and wrinkles. The procedure only takes a few minutes to complete where a clinician will inject the muscles responsible for causing unwanted lines.
In result, visible smoothing is shown in as soon as 3-4 days and at least 2 weeks are needed to fully appreciate treatment results. Results typically last 3-4 months.
Restylane or Juvederm are the best known dermal fillers in the United States and are renowned for their safety, efficacy, and longstanding results. FDA-approved, they are made out of Hyaluronic acid, which closely resembles a naturally occurring sugar found in the human body. Hyaluronic acid helps hydrate the skin by holding in water and it also acts as a cushioning agent. By replenishing the level of Hyaluronic acid in the skin, Restylane/Juvederm are able to immediately soften lines and wrinkles seen with aging (such as the nasolabial folds) and enhance natural features such as the lips or cheeks.
Eyelash Extensions Applications are your ultimate answer for longer, thicker, more beautiful-looking eyelashes. Developed to mimic your natural eyelashes, each eyelash extension is individually applied to a single eyelash, resulting in a gorgeous, natural appearance.
Eyelash extensions are not traditional false eyelashes, eyelash flares, or implants– they are safe and comfortable to wear. Eyelash extensions are never applied directly to your skin or eyelid. With routine touchups every two to four weeks, you can have amazing eyelashes indefinitely.
Microblading is a very natural option that delivers semi-permanent results for those who want to fully reconstruct, define, cover gaps, or fill in their brows. The customized shape is chosen for every client based upon facial structure and preference. The procedure normally requires multiple treatment sessions.
During the microblading process, technicians use a special microblading pen to draw on individual strokes one by one. It's an extremely meticulous process that takes around two hours to complete. A touch-up may be required 12 months or sooner for oily-skinned clients, those who tan often or expose brow area to certain chemicals such as facial peels, chlorine, anti-aging products, etc. Pigment retention varies depending on skin type, age, aftercare, immune system, medications, certain chemicals, and the type of pigment used.
Microblading is low maintenance and results can last 1-2 years. No special care is required, except for brief touch-ups. After healing, you can rub them and enjoy swimming. Wake up every morning with perfect brows!

Q: Nuget - "Name cannot begin with the '<' character I have VS 2013 update 5. I right click a project and select "Manage NuGet Packages". When I try to install the "SpecFlow" package I get the message:

"Name cannot begin with the '<' character, hexadecimal value 0x3C,
  Line 10, position 2."

I get the same problem if I use the package manager console

Any ideas which file it's referring to? How can I fix this?

A:
Any ideas which file it's referring to? How can I fix this?

Could you build your application successfully before install the package SpecFlow? It is seems like there could be an error in web.config or some other file that has an unexpected end tag.
According to your build log in the output:

You can notice that that package already installed to the project successfully, but NuGet would throw an exception when adding package to Common.Components. You can try install this package to the new create project and check if you still see the issue.
As a test, I created a new ASP.NET Web API project and delete a > tag in the web.config. Then I tried to install NuGet package to the project with  this malformed web.config I get the following error:

So my suggestion is to double check all the files that has any relations to project (like some properties bound to the settings, resources you've set in the designer previously, project reference)
Note: Many malformed errors able to build without mentioning any warnings. So we also need to check malformed error manually.

A: I was getting a similar error when starting my ASP.NET server locally. The error message stated that the XML was malformed in web.config at a particular line, and I drove myself insane looking for the error in that file.
If you've got an error like this, look for nodes in web.config that import another file, like <appSettings file="PrivateSettings.config">.
This statement will actually inject the contents of that file at that line, and the error message will not contain the actual XML being parsed.
Check the contents of the other files that may be injected during parsing.

A: I'll share my answer since I had this same issue but the solution was different for me. Rob Bowman's comment was a hint for me. I was working on a local branch and wanted to switch back to the master branch to take a look at something. When switching branches I opted to stash my changes. Visual Studio screwed up something in the process. I opened up the web.config file and found some odd code in there about a stash. I went back and committed my changes in the first branch and addressed any issues with branch changes/stashes then this error went away without having to do any manual code editing.

Q: Primitives in Yosys I am using YOSYS to convert Verilog to BLIF. Input is a circuit (L_0_0) that only contains not, and, or primitives and some behavioral latching code.
Here is my Verilog code

A: The BLIF file format does not support storage elements with asynchronous resets. Unfortunately you do not post the Verilog code you used as input, but from what you have posted it is obvious that your Verilog does contains such storage elements. ($_DFF_PN0_ is a Yosys internal cell type used to represent a positive-edge flip-flop with negative polarity asynchronous reset-to-zero. Yosys just outputs that cell as it is since there is no equivalent construct for that in BLIF.)
If you would like to use BLIF output then you'll have to avoid using asynchronous resets in your design. There is nothing Yosys can do here because this is a limitation of the BLIF file format.
If you do not want to change the HDL code, but are fine with converting the asynchronous resets to synchronous resets, then you can simply run techmap -map +/adff2dff.v after running proc.

'King of hearts' arsonist now charged in Spring Garden assault, kidnapping
A man responsible for a series of arsons in southern York County has found himself once again locked up in York County Prison after police said he held a woman against her will in a Spring Garden Township home last week.
Alexander Justin Bedour Robb, 29, allegedly became enraged at the woman while they were talking at her home Monday, and he assaulted and choked her, court documents state.
Police said Robb also threatened to kill her new boyfriend if she left the home, and he monitored her text messages during a 24-hour period.
The victim was previously involved with Robb, according to authorities.
Robb, of the 600 block of Country Club Road, Spring Garden Township, remains in York County Prison without bail, charged with strangulation and kidnapping, as well as misdemeanor offenses of simple assault and making terroristic threats and a summary harassment offense.
Police said the woman had an active protection-from-abuse order against Robb.
Incident: The victim told authorities that she agreed to have Robb over to her home so they could talk.
During the night, he became angry over her new boyfriend and became physical with her, according to police, who said he grabbed the woman by the arms, hit, pushed, groped and threw her multiple times.
He then told her he would kill her, her boyfriend, her family and everything she loves before he choked her, court documents allege.
Whenever she tried to leave the house, he would say he would kill her new boyfriend if she did, police said.
Robb also hovered over her and monitored every text message she sent her friends, charging documents state.
The responding officer found she had swelling or bruising to her head, face, arms and legs, according to police.
Arson: Robb and another man intentionally set numerous vehicles on fire in the southern York County area between December 2009 and February 2011.
Robb and Michael Nalls left a king of hearts playing card at the scene of each fire.
In September 2011, the two were sentenced to 2½ to five years in York County Prison, and they were ordered to pay roughly $124,000 in restitution.
Robb pleaded guilty in 13 arsons, and Nall pleaded guilty in 11 of them.
They both claimed the other was the lookout during the fires.
The vehicles targeted were in Glen Rock, Shrewsbury and New Freedom boroughs, Windsor, Hopewell and Penn townships and in Baltimore County, Maryland, police said.
Robb was arraigned on his newest charges the morning of Wednesday, Aug. 7.
Arraigning District Judge John H. Fishel denied Robb bail because of his past history of violent behavior and because he is an "extreme threat" to others, according to online court documents.
Robb does not have an attorney listed.
His preliminary hearing is scheduled for Aug. 29 at District Judge Jennifer J.P. Clancy's office.


See all of crossover, there are 5 more in this node.
Crossover, with a capital 'C', is a rather nifty plugin for Linux web browsers such as Mozilla, Netscape, and Opera. Made by Codeweavers, it uses Wine to enable these Linux browsers to make use of Windows plugins--most notably Quicktime, thus addressing one of Linux's greatest inadequacies since the introduction of the Sorensen encoder.
Crossover is a mixture of both open source and closed source software, and cost $20 with a nagware demo. It works amazingly well on a 450 mHZ overclocked Celeron with 192 megs of RAM, running movies just like you were in Windows. It is rather odd to see the Windows installation wizards running in one's X session, however.


The Parish Council receives monies via B&NES from the Community Infrastruture Levy charged on developments in the Parish. The Parish Council receives 15% of the levy in three installments during the progress of the works. Additionally, 10% is given by B&NES to a central pot associated with the Chew Valley Neighbourhood Plan and these monies are granted by a committee of Parish Council Chairmen.
What can the Community Infrastructure Levy be spent on (and by whom)?
The levy can be used to fund a wide range of infrastructure, including transport, flood defences, schools, hospitals, and other health and social care facilities (for further details, see section 216(2) of the Planning Act 2008, and regulation 59, as amended by the 2012 and 2013 Regulations). This definition allows the levy to be used to fund a very broad range of facilities such as play areas, parks and green spaces, cultural and sports facilities, academies and free schools, district heating schemes and police stations and other community safety facilities. This flexibility gives local areas the opportunity to choose what infrastructure they need to deliver their relevant Plan (the Local Plan in England, Local Development Plan in Wales, and the London Plan in London). Charging authorities may not use the levy to fund affordable housing.
Local authorities must spend the levy on infrastructure needed to support the development of their area, and they will decide what infrastructure is needed. The levy is intended to focus on the provision of new infrastructure and should not be used to remedy pre-existing deficiencies in infrastructure provision unless those deficiencies will be made more severe by new development.
The levy can be used to increase the capacity of existing infrastructure or to repair failing existing infrastructure, if that is necessary to support development.
In London, the regulations restrict spending by the Mayor to funding roads or other transport facilities, including Crossrail, to ensure a balance between the spending priorities of the boroughs and the Mayor.
Local authorities must allocate at least 15% of levy receipts to spend on priorities that should be agreed with the local community in areas where development is taking place. This can increase to a minimum of 25% in certain circumstances.
Applications for both the Parish CIL monies and the CVNP monies should be made to the Parish Council via The Parish Clerk.
Name of organisation and contact details of those making the application.
Details of the proposed works including drawings and specifications where available.
The Parish Council may request further details before making a decision about the application. Additionally, because of the way the levy is received by the Parish Council which is related to the commencement dates for the developments it may not always be possible to fulfil applicants timescale requirements.

"Our research was driven by the intention to study relationship problems in the real world and at a large scale – something that has not been done before, given that past research has primarily focused on professional contexts (e.g., couples counselling), that are not representative of the general population," explained study author Charlotte Entwistle, a PhD candidate at Lancaster University. "We soon discovered that we had an excellent opportunity to study potential gender differences in relationship related behavior and relationship problems at a large scale, with the idea of putting traditional gender stereotypes to the test through naturalistic observation in anonymous contexts."
The researchers analyzed 184,631 submissions to the "r/relationships" forum, which describes itself as "…a community built around helping people and the goal of providing a platform for interpersonal relationship advice between redditors. We seek posts from users who have specific and personal relationship quandaries that other redditors can help them try to solve." The researchers were able to determine the age and gender of 80.05% of the users based on the content of their submissions.
Using a language analysis algorithm known as Meaning Extraction Method, Entwistle and her colleagues uncovered the 25 most commonly discussed relationship problems on the forum. Two themes related to communication emerged as the second and third most commonly discussed issues.
"Through analyzing the language of nearly 190,000 posts on an online relationships discussion forum, findings revealed that, perhaps unsurprisingly, communication patterns were the most commonly discussed relationship problem. However, the notion of 'heartache' was the most discussed theme in general, suggesting that people are seeking help for their relationships online by seeking support for the emotional distress caused by the relationships, rather than for advice on specific problems," Entwistle told PsyPost.
Other commonly discussed themes included relationship problems related to dating, personal qualities, trust issues, intimacy, partying, and abuse.
"As we were conducting the study, we realized that this was an important opportunity to put a lot of common ideas about gender differences in relationships to the test," said co-author Ryan Boyd in a news release. "For example, are men truly less emotionally invested in relationships than women, or is it the case that men are simply stigmatized out of sharing their feelings?"
The researchers used another algorithm, known as Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count, to examine language related to romantic attachment. Compared to women, men were more likely to use couple-focused language and words related to affiliation and positive emotions, and were less likely to use absolutist language and words related to negative emotions.
"What was most interesting was that when exploring gender differences, analyses uncovered that men in fact discussed heartache on the relationships forum more than women, and they also showed language patterns consistent with a more secure attachment style," Entwistle explained. "This indicates that men are at least as emotionally invested in relationships as women, and once the traditional barriers to seeking help are removed (e.g., social stigma), men appear just as motivated to seek help for their relationship problems."
The researchers also found that the relationship forum was used by men more than women. Approximately 55% of the users were men. But this could simply be a reflection of the website's demographics, rather than an indication of who is more likely to seek relationship help.
"Although we use a large sample of data, the data is naturally limited to users of a single website (i.e., Reddit). Thus, the sample may be biased consistent with the user base of Reddit (e.g., younger, male, American). Further, given the exploratory nature of the data, we cannot say whether gender differences were confounded with the current 'stage' of relationship problems people were experiencing," Entwistle said.
"While beyond the scope of our study, future research should aspire to disentangle such complexities. Finally, although our findings provide novel insights into relationship help-seeking in online anonymous contexts, the quality of the help and advice given within these contexts remains unaddressed. If the advice provided is of poor quality, relationship problems may be exacerbated, contributing to further interpersonal problems. We anticipate further analyses of anonymous, online relationship discussion platforms to determine the quality and subsequent implications of such advice."
The findings could also help to destigmatize help-seeking by showing how common many relationship problems are among men.
"Our findings reveal how traditional social stigmas, such as gender norms and expectations, can interfere with help-seeking in stigmatized groups (in this case, men), but when stigmas are removed (e.g., in anonymous online platforms), people that would typically not seek help from real-life acquaintances then feel comfortable to," Entwistle said. "We hope these findings help to de-stigmatize seeking help for relationship problems, and seeking help in general, particularly among traditionally stigmatised groups."
The study, "Dirty laundry: The nature and substance of seeking relationship help from strangers online", was authored by Charlotte Entwistle, Andrea B. Horn, Tabea Meier, and Ryan L. Boyd.

Q: decimales antes y despues del punto - SQL actualmente estoy intentando poner una tasa la cual varia según el tipo de moneda,
por ejemplo:
Si la moneda es USD entonces la tasa sera asi 1.000 (4 decimales despues del punto)
Si la moneda es HNL se hace una formula y el resultado me tiene que dar 2 decimales antes del punto y 4 despues del punto (Ejemplo: 24.1141)
Esta es la condicion que estoy usando
(CASE
             WHEN bp.Currency = 'USD' THEN '1.0000'
             ELSE
         (SELECT TOP 1
              er.BuyCash
          FROM dbo.ExchangeRates AS er
          WHERE CONVERT(DATE, er.ValidDate) = CONVERT(DATE, bp.ValueDate)
                AND er.BranchId = 0)
         END)

Sin embargo al ejecutar todo, cuando la moneda es USD me arroja una tasa de 1.00000, poniendo muchos ceros

A: *

*Las columnas solo pueden ser de un único tipo, es decir, no pueden tener dos configuraciones de decimales diferentes.

*En el caso de tu consulta el motor resuelve el tipo de dato de la columna final de forma dinámica, eligiendo un configuración que sea consistente con todos los eventuales valores.

*El que termina definiendo el tipo de dato (y los decimales) es la columna BuyCash que seguramente este definido como NUMERIC(13,6) o un valor similar. Finalmente el motor elige el tipo de dato más "inclusivo", en este caso el de mayor cantidad de decimales.

La solución es convertir el valor a un tipo que tenga los decimales deseados, pero recuerda que esto eventualmente estaría truncando información.

CONVERT(NUMERIC(13,4),
       (CASE WHEN bp.Currency = 'USD' THEN 1.0000
             ELSE (SELECT TOP 1
                      er.BuyCash
                      FROM dbo.ExchangeRates AS er
                      WHERE CONVERT(DATE, er.ValidDate) = CONVERT(DATE, bp.ValueDate)
                      AND er.BranchId = 0)
         END))

Are you thinking of renovating your kitchen this year? It can be surprisingly hard to choose a theme and color palette for your dream kitchen. Why is that? For one thing, the kitchen is the centerpiece in most homes. The decor and colors you choose in the kitchen often flow into the adjoining living areas like the family room or dining area. So it can be hard to decide on specific colors or appliances since it affects more than just the one room.
The other reason is that kitchen renovations are expensive. If you don't like the results or use outdated materials, colors, and even appliances, you can't just change them. That's why most people want to know design trends for the year – what's in and what's out. Even if you don't consider yourself to be a trendsetter or even a follower, it's still useful information. After all, you don't want to date your kitchen within a few months of extensively renovating it.
So here's a sneak peek at the latest kitchen trends for 2019!
If you've been following design trends for the last few years, you know that all white kitchens have been quite the rage. From white cabinets to the paint on the walls, a white kitchen looks bright and sparkling. As any self-respecting cook knows, white kitchens can be a pain to maintain as they stain easily. But still, you saw white kitchens everywhere.
Well not anymore. If there's one thing you have to keep in mind about future trends, it's that colorful kitchens are here to stay. Whether you go for warm and earthy colors like reds, oranges, and browns or cool tones like dark blues and olive greens, color is in. And you don't have to stop at colorful walls or cabinets. Let your imagination run wild and choose a variety of tones for the backsplash, tiles, countertops, and yes. Even appliances.
For a while there, stainless steel appliances were the ultimate kitchen trend. Many people doubted if it would ever go away. That time has now come. From luxury brands to budget ones, every company is keen to offer appliances in a riot of colors. You can choose to coordinate all your appliances in the same color palette. Or select a bright stove and hood combo and design the rest of the kitchen around them.
How much time have you spent thinking about the backsplash in your kitchen? It's not something most people spend a lot of time on. But maybe this overlooked part of the kitchen is the perfect place to focus your attention on in 2019. Bright and bold splashes of color are the order of the day here.
Moroccan and Spanish tiles or mosaic designs are one of the hottest kitchen trends right now. Whether you have a small area or a quite large canvas to work with, the backsplash can finally get the attention it deserves!
Cabinets are a must have in any kitchen. You can never have enough storage, can you? Open cabinets have been reigning for quite some time though. It's a great choice for minimalist kitchens or if you want to show off your fancy dishware.
But what if wanted to get rid of your upper cabinets altogether? Now's your chance. Designers are opting for a cleaner look in the kitchen by eliminating upper cabinets. So what can you do for storage? Freestanding cabinets and large kitchen islands are great storage solutions. You'll find that removing upper cabinets can make even a small kitchen appear much larger than it is. Who wouldn't want that?
Speaking of kitchen trends, gold and copper finishes are quickly becoming popular. Whether it is copper faucets or golden trim, luxury metal finishes are everywhere. Fortunately, they go well with a range of colors. So whether your cabinet doors are black, blue, or green, copper or even brass touches can take your kitchen to the next level. Don't hesitate to experiment either. These finishes are not hard to maintain or clean. So there is no excuse to avoid them any longer!

The film highlights India's emergence from the British Empire when its men's hockey team met the British hockey team on the field and, on August 12, 1948, won the first Olympic gold medal for India as an independent nation.
Billed as "an inspirational story of a team that fought all odds to bring their nation hope, pride and respect", Gold stars one of Bollywood's biggest stars, Akshay Kumar, and will be released on August 15 – the 70th anniversary of Indian Independence Day. Kumar plays Balbir Singh, regarded as one of the best hockey players of all time, who coached India's hockey team to victory at Wembley a year after Partition. The film goes back to 1936 Berlin Olympics when Singh was a hockey player. Locations including Lister Mill and Little Germany were used for Nazi Germany scenes.
The cast and crew of Gold were in Bradford for several months last year, based in Little Germany where production offices and a prop store were set up. Bradford's City of Film team helped with location filming.
"It was a huge production for Bradford to host," said City of Film director David Wilson. "We helped facilitate access to a number of locations and provided options for parking the unit base, trucks and catering.
Last year a call went out for extras in a crowd scene at Odsal Stadium, which appears in the Bollywood blockbuster as Wembley. "We found a lot of what we needed in Bradford. It has been a perfect venue for us," said executive producer Shivani Saran.
THREE lost souls find themselves on an unexpected journey of discovery in writer and director Akarsh Khurana's upcoming film Karwaan (A Group of Travellers).
Karwaan stars veteran actor Irrfan Khan (The Lunchbox) and Malayalam star Dulquer Salmaan in his Hindi debut alongside rising star Mithila Palkar.
The film depicts Avinash's (Salmaan) journey following the death of his father in a tragic accident whilst on a pilgrimage. Upon discovering there has been a mix-up of bodies, Avinash and his friend Shaukat (Khan) set out to find his body and deliver Tanya's (Palkar) grandmother's body who died in the same accident. A life-changing journey awaits, where each one finds redemption, hope, love and eventually themselves.
Filmed in only 35 days, Karwaan will take you on a journey into South India, through the stunning locales of the Western Ghats, to the ancient yet modern city of Kochi.
The film's soundtrack is set to feature a modern feel with a rap track written and composed by rapper Slow Cheeta aka Chaitanya Sharma.
With two dead bodies, one car and a road trip of a lifetime, Karwaan promises, laughs, self-discovery and heart-warming moments as the most unexpected of journeys becomes a memorable adventure.
Releases worldwide on August 3.
AKSHAY Kumar must be the busiest man in Bollywood. The Gold star is set to return with the fourth instalment in the Housefull franchise. He has started shooting for the film with Bobby Deol and Riteish Deshmukh.

We all use high-fives throughout the day with our students, but have you ever thought about a way to use it as a teaching strategy to mean more than good job?
Another thing I like to do is use high-fives to work on basic concepts and making choices. I will ask my students, "Do you want a high five or a low five?" I will use a high voice and a low voice when saying the corresponding words. Or I might ask, "Do you want a front five or a back five?" Many of our students on the spectrum are working hard on those communication skills so think of all the different ways you can present scenarios that require a response to a choice. You can offer them a choice between a high-five or a sticker of a high-five (they sell those on Amazon). You can have high-five hands printed on different colored paper or different sizes, laminated then attached to a wooden stick and ask, "Do you want to high-five the red or blue hand?" or "Do you want to high-five the big or small hand?" My typical ending to a whole group session is to offer each of my students a high five or knuckles. My students love knuckles because they are usually exploding knuckles! Within a short time, many of my students are asking for one of each as they hold up one high-five hand and one knuckle… lol!
Great post! I love how you incorporate concepts with high-fives!
What a great way to give work on language "in the moment"! Love your ideas!

Whatever happened to the estimate that 51% of all human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are from livestock agriculture ("Livestock and Climate Change," Robert Goodland and Jeff Anhang, WorldWatch, Nov.-Dec. 2009)? This certainly supports the vegan cause, but is it scientifically valid?
This claim revolves around how much of an impact human land use has on the carbon cycle. What difference would it make if we didn't have any livestock industry today? The areas now used to graze livestock, or grow crops for livestock, would revert to their natural vegetation, which in many cases would be forest areas. A new article published earlier this month in Science now gives us a better idea of the potential of reforestation. Even excluding existing forests, urban areas, and farm areas(!), reforestation could store around 200 gigatons of carbon, which is about two-thirds of the carbon humans have put into the atmosphere since the industrial revolution, and thus getting rid of 25% of the CO2 currently in the atmosphere. This would reduce the CO2 levels from the June 2019 estimate of 414 ppm to 310 ppm, way beyond the most optimistic scenarios of 350.org. While this doesn't explicitly address livestock agriculture, it's clearly relevant, since most deforestation these days is linked to clearing forest land for livestock grazing or livestock feed crops.
The authors provided a video explaining this study that includes an interview with the lead author of the study, Dr. Jean-Francois Bastin. They conclude: "That makes forest restoration by far the biggest climate change solution that we have today."
Some people immediately questioned the study. One scientist did not dispute the conclusion, but its relevance; the true impact of such a program would be more like 100 gigatons of carbon removed, not 200 gigatons, because much of this absorbed carbon would be absorbed anyway by the soil and the oceans. Even if this objection is allowed, we would not want the oceans to absorb any more CO2, because of ocean acidification. The impact would still be significant; this would mean that such reforestation would "only" reduce CO2 levels by a mere 12.5%, or to 362 ppm — still most of the way to the fabled target of 350 ppm.
And what is even more amazing, this study didn't even include any farmland, much of which is being used for livestock. If this is the case, the effect of returning all land devoted to livestock to its natural vegetation would be even greater. The Goodland /Anhang figure of 51% from livestock would not be too radical, but much too conservative. But the Bastin, et al. article is still broadly in line with Goodland and Anhang's article, because it postulated a similar mechanism.
It also broadly agrees with the earlier estimate of Sailesh Rao and his colleagues, who estimated that abandoning all livestock agriculture would take about 265 gigatons of carbon out of the atmosphere due to revegetation. Whereas this latest study by Bastin et al. found 0.9 billion hectares available outside of urban and agricultural areas, Rao et al. found 1.96 billion hectares available if we ditched livestock agriculture altogether. Finally, it also supports William Ruddiman's estimate (in Plows, Plagues, and Petroleum) that even before the industrial revolution, with human population less than 10% of today's population and an agriculture to match, land use changes had already raised atmospheric levels by about 40 ppm of CO2.
In short, there is converging evidence from several different directions that lead to the conclusion that land use is a critical element in fighting climate change.
But we don't have an unlimited amount of time to do this. We are perilously close to critical climate tipping points, if we have not already exceeded them, and we're progressively destroying the land that could grow these forests. Professor Tom Crowther, a senior author of the Bastin et al. study, said "it will take decades for new forests to mature and achieve this potential. It is vitally important that we protect the forests that exist today, pursue other climate solutions, and continue to phase out fossil fuels from our economies in order to avoid dangerous climate change."
We certainly need to phase out the use of fossil fuels as well; besides their climate effects, they are finite in quantity and we're close to (if not beyond) the peak of world oil production. But the key take-away from this is that scientists, activists, and the public ought to be heeding the message that changing the way that we use land is absolutely essential in dealing with climate change.

Excellent essay. I think the scientists probably just blink at this data because they think the goal of ending current food production and replacing it with trees and tofu is a mark too high. 🙁
Keith Akers Post author August 20, 2019 at 10:04 am
Upon reading the paper by Bastin, et al., I found that when they excluded "agricultural areas," what they really did was exclude croplands. They say: "we estimate that 0.9 billion hectares are found outside cropland and urban regions . . . and may represent regions for potential restoration" (emphasis added). The study that they cite is "Mapping global cropland and field size" which clearly refers to cropland, excluding rangeland and pasture lands.
This would appear to allow reforestation of pasture lands and grasslands, where appropriate, which of course is actually most agricultural land. This also explains why the estimate of Bastin et al. is relatively close to that of Rao, et al.


When the "name of the Lord Jesus" is truly magnified (Acts 19:17), everything contrary to Him either becomes insignificant or observably wicked. As men believe on the Lord, they naturally begin to consider the moral nature of everything else in life. As they begin to see the wickedness of their flesh, they must choose whether to obey God or to satisfy the flesh. The people in Acts chapter 19 chose to obey God. As they learned of the wickedness of their curious arts, they brought their books together to be burned. This was done at no little cost to them (Acts 19:19), but they considered it a greater cost to displease the One who died for them. Naturally resulting from this, the word of God grew and prevailed (Acts 19:20).
• (For children): When we hear the word of God, it should move us to action (James 1:22). Consider king Josiah's reaction to the word of God (2 Kings 23:24-25). Would you be willing to get rid of something displeasing to God if it were shown to you (Genesis 35:2-4)?
• (For everyone): Is the word of God growing and prevailing in your home? If not, have you considered whether or not there are some things in your home that need to be set aflame to the glory of God?
• What is keeping you back from a closer walk with the Lord? What is more important to you—pleasing the flesh or pleasing the Lord who bought you?
• Ask God to give you the courage to obey Him.
• Ask the Lord to help you see the cost of disobeying Him.
SONG: AM I A SOLDIER OF THE CROSS?
Many have erroneously suggested that witchcraft is a spiritual gift, but the Bible plainly declares that it is instead a work of the flesh. As such, it is anti-Spirit and lustful. It is of the same kind as adultery, idolatry, hatred, heresies, murders, and drunkenness. No Christian who finds joy in these practices can rightly claim to be led of the Spirit, and so it is with Christians involved in witchcraft at any level. Unfortunately, many beguiled saints have grown increasingly accepting of witchcraft, at times even suggesting there are hidden scriptural messages. Men should not be deceived into thinking that God will partner with a work of the flesh to accomplish His work.
• (For children): God hates witchcraft (Exodus 22:18; Micah 5:12). If you are attracted to it, it is not God doing it (James 1:13) but your own desires and longings (James 1:14). Remember, in God's eyes there is no such thing as a "good" witch no matter how the world dresses them up to appear so (1 John 4:1).
• (For everyone): No man can rightly suggest that God led him to get drunk or to commit adultery. Yet, why do you think people justify witchcraft as a harmless endeavour?
• The works of the flesh have bombarded man's entertainment. Do you find witchcraft, adultery, and drunkenness entertaining?
• Ask God to help you rid your life of the works of the flesh.
• Ask God to give you wisdom to know what is right and wrong.
Due to the false hopes offered through the lies of witchcraft, many lives have been devastated. Fortune tellers, psychics, and horoscopes become a source of hope, assuring simple souls of peace when there is no peace apart from the Lord (Ezekiel 13:10). Men expect the promises of peace to come to pass to the point that they search diligently, looking for the slightest confirmation that these counsellors speak the truth. Some have gone so far as to claim that these counsellors are of God and speak for God. Rest assured that this is not the case. Only the word of God can speak for God. Where there is hope, the word of God offers that hope. Where there is no peace, the word of God declares it plainly.
• (For children): Most people really do not want to hear the truth (Isaiah 30:9-11). Yet, words are useless if not from God (Jeremiah 2:8; Jeremiah 14:13-16; Jeremiah 23:30-32). Simon the sorcerer wanted others to think he was great. But he needed to be saved (Acts 8:9-13).
• (For everyone): In whose hand is your future? Why would you trust the words of man when only God knows your future? Why is it blasphemous to trust the words of horoscopes, magicians, psychics, or other such witchcraft?
• From whence do you derive your hope? Do you reject any and all forms of witchcraft as the false prophets that they are?
• Ask God to show you the only true source of hope.
• Thank God for giving you light.
The love of money is the root of all evil (1 Timothy 6:10). One should take notice that witchcraft, magic, and similar practices are very lucrative industries. Many have foolishly imagined that these things have some redeeming value. However, the world cares most for the temporal profits and not for the ultimate consequences of polluting the minds and hearts of the masses. As Paul and Silas ministered, they were followed by a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination (Acts 16:16). After many days, Paul turned and rebuked the spirit, setting the damsel free (Acts 16:18). Instead of rejoicing in the damsel's new found peace, her masters incited violence against Paul and Silas.
• (For children): Preachers are to preach God's word (2 Timothy 4:2) which is the truth (John 17:17). They are not to preach to make money (Titus 1:7-11; 1 Peter 5:2; 2 Peter 2:1-3). Consider Paul's example (Acts 20:33-34; 2 Corinthians 11:8-9; 1 Thessalonians 2:9). God took care of him. Paul never charged for helping people.
• (For everyone): How did the love of money affect the response of the damsel's masters? What was their major concern? How can this be related to similar practices in our day?
• How are witchcraft and similar practices lucrative today? Why would they keep producing such things at the risk of harming the minds and hearts of young and old alike?
• Ask God to show you the true motives behind witchcraft.
• Ask the Lord to help you repent of any evil associations.
Satan is always at odds with God because Satan refuses to place himself in submission to the Almighty. Likewise, there are always two spirits at work: the Holy Ghost and a satanic or false spirit. While the Lord seeks to give life, and joy, and peace, the forces of evil seek to turn men away from the truth. Barnabas and Saul, while on their missionary journey, had the opportunity to declare the word of God to Sergius Paulus, the deputy of the country. As the Holy Ghost worked in the deputy's heart, another spirit began to work. Elymas the sorcerer withstood them, seeking to turn the deputy from the faith (Acts 13:8). What does this reveal to us? Sorcerers and all other forms of witchcraft are the enemies of all righteousness (Acts 13:10).
• (For children): Jannes and Jambres were magicians who sought to defeat the effect Moses had upon Pharaoh (2 Timothy 3:8; Exodus 7:10-12, 20-22; Exodus 8:7). Satan is behind all such opposition, deceit, and trickery (John 8:44; Luke 8:11-12). God is against such acts (Deuteronomy 13:1-5).
• (For everyone): What did Saul, also known as Paul, call Elymas the sorcerer (see Acts 13:10)? What does this suggest about those who practice various forms of witchcraft?
• God judged Elymas by blinding him for a season. How did this physical judgment match Elymas' spiritual condition? Which is worse: to remain physically blind or to remain spiritually blind?
• Ask God to open your eyes to the wickedness of witchcraft.
• Thank the Lord for giving you the truth.
SONG: WHAT WILT THOU HAVE ME TO DO?
Truth is a crucial piece in the believer's armour. Truth is given with the purpose of girding the loins (the area between the lowest ribs and the hipbone). A conscientious study of scripture reveals that girding one's loins prepped the individual for swift and free movement (Exodus 12:11; 1 Kings 18:46; 2 Kings 4:29). It only makes sense then that God would tell the believer to gird his loins with truth. Truth frees a man from the entanglements hindering his ability to fight spiritual battles. Similarly, the Bible says of Christ that "righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins" (Isaiah 11:5). Just as righteousness will aid Christ when He comes to battle, truth multiplies the believer's skill in warfare.
• (For children): How can you be ready for battle? A good start is knowing God's word and keeping your heart right (Psalm 119:9-11; 2 Timothy 2:21). Jesus used the truth (John 17:17) against the Devil (Luke 4:1-13).
• (For everyone): Are your loins girt about with truth? Is the truth helping you daily as you fight against the world, the flesh, and the Devil? If not, who is to blame for this failure?
• Study girdles in the Bible. What are some uses for girdles? What can you learn about girding your loins with truth from your study on girdles?
• Thank God for so graciously giving the truth.
• Ask the Lord to help you see the necessity of truth.
It is imperative that men speak the truth, for "he that speaketh the truth sheweth forth righteousness" (Proverbs 12:17), and his lip "shall be established for ever" (Proverbs 12:19). On the other hand, lies are only temporary resolutions that must be replaced with new lies. According to the word of God, lying is not becoming of a believer. Believers are to put "away lying" and "speak every man truth with his neighbour" (Ephesians 4:25). This is crucial for the hearer, for all deserve to hear and know the truth. It is likewise important for the speaker. Lies may, in the face of conflict or difficulty, present a temporary way of escape, but speaking the truth offers great rewards in the future.
• (For children): God hates lying (Proverbs 6:16-19; Proverbs 12:22). He wants us to speak the truth (Zechariah 8:16; Colossians 3:9) even if it is sometimes hard to admit the truth (1 Kings 22:5-14, 17-18; Acts 4:19-21). We can turn people to God by speaking the truth (Acts 8:35; Acts 16:30-32).
• (For everyone): Under what circumstances does it become difficult to speak the truth? Does it help to withhold the truth in favour of a lie? How does this usually end up costing you more in the end?
• Why do men need to hear the truth? How can the truth help men spiritually and practically? How does it hurt others if you refuse to speak the truth?
• Ask the Lord to help you speak the truth.
• Ask God to convict you when you tell a lie.
God wants man to serve Him in truth. This was the message of Joshua when he admonished the people to "fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth" (Joshua 24:14). It was the message of Samuel when he proclaimed, "Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart" (1 Samuel 12:24). It was also the message of the apostle Paul when he declared, "Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth" (1 Corinthians 5:8). It is perhaps this very issue that will determine "of what sort" man's work is at the judgment seat of Christ (1 Corinthians 3:13).
• (For children): God's ways are righteous (Psalm 145:17). He wants us to follow His ways (Deuteronomy 10:12-13). Which men served the Lord in truth: Genesis 39:9; 1 Samuel 8:1-3; Daniel 1:8; Daniel 3:17-18; Daniel 6:10; Job 2:3? Psalm 26:1-3 should be our prayer.
• (For everyone): Read John 4:23. In what two things does the Lord say the Father is to be worshipped? How does this relate to serving the Lord in truth?
• Are you serving the Lord? If so, are you serving Him in sincerity and in truth? How will this pay off at the judgment seat of Christ?
• Ask the Lord to show you your motive in serving Him.
• Thank God for the opportunity to do something for Him.

The Rain 2 preview
Editor / May 16, 2019
Netflix, the global VOD giant, releases The Rain 2 tomorrow. The second season of the Danish post-apocalyptic drama series actually started pre-production before it was commissioned by the distributor.
The first season of the first ever original Danish series commissioned by the giant streamer premiered almost exactly a year ago. Tomorrow the second season will be released to Netflix' 149 million subscribers, thanks to forward-looking producers. Production of season 2 officially started on August 17, 2018, although the planning had begun before season one premiered. -Netflix greenlit season 2 one month after premiering season 1, but we had started developing it half a year before the launch of season 1, otherwise we would not have had time to turn it around within 12 months. It's been a wonderful experience. [Netflix] understood exactly the whole concept, the story, and instead of making the show on a low budget – which would have been the case for a young adult series produced in Scandinavia – we were able to do it on a healthy budget, Miso Film co-founder and managing director Jonas Allen noted.
Miso Film managing director Peter Bose added: -After season one, we also learnt how to work even better on the second season. We knew what Netflix wanted, and they knew what we could deliver and how we would do it. [Key executives at Netflix moved from the US to Amsterdam, so] we didn't have the time difference anymore and the fact that Kelly and her team came and visited us to discuss the screenplay and other creative aspects made things easier.
The teen series follows a group of young survivors on the run in a world where half the population was killed by a virus carried by the rain. Season 2 will revolve around what happens after the reveal that Rasmus is immune to the virus. Still, he is a carrier so being near him endangers everyone. Rasmus' genes hold the key to a cure but to isolate the compounds of a cure he would have to die. How this will unfold in the sequel season remains to be seen.
Season 1 was well received by critics, less so by fans judging from film community comments, although fans on Twitter were positive. The first season currently holds a rating of 63% on IMDB. However, Netflix is spending a lot of money trying to expand in European territories, and commissioning local drama is one of their key strategies. The Rain is filmed on location in Sweden and Denmark, with Netflix collaborating financially with Scandinavian production company Miso Film for development and production of the series.
The 8 x 45 minutes series reunites Alba August, Lucas Lyngaard Tonnessen, Mikkel Boe Følsgaard, Sonny Lindberg, Lukas Løkken and Jessica Dinnage, in other words most of the cast from the original season.
