Here are just some of the many societal issues that CASA addresses within it's programming.
Children in minority/low income communities are in constant need of safe spaces and fun resources during the after school hours.
Our program provides a safe, fun, and educational place for kids to learn after school. We strategically locate ourselves in existing community centers where our program can meet children close to home.
Our program provides mentorship from trained college students, who provide a support system and inspiration for youth to imagine their futures and accomplish their dreams.
Our program feeds kids the resources to thoughtfully express themselves through art, digital projects like movies, and creative writing. They will tackle community issues and social and school problems they face everyday through fun and engaging mediums that help them share their voices and opinions.
Standardized education has left many multicultural and bilingual families trying to "catch up"
Our program embraces linguistic and cultural differences and uses these as tools in the learning process.
We believe all community members - especially those who are still figuring their lives out - need to be involved and learning at a grass roots level. LCM is an opportunity for all college students, community organization members, business employees, and parents and children to engage with each other.
We give San Diego college students a chance to earn course credit for helping others out - now that's really a good deal! When they graduate they are more likely to understand the community they are a part of and constructively make better decisions for San Diego.
Our program gives children the access and knowledge on how to assess different technology, media forms, and messages in today's world.
LCM inspires minority and low income youth to plan for their futures and aspire to think about entering college at an early age. Colleges that offer programs within their local communities receive the benefit back twofold: in a more educated student body and more college bound community members!

Dean explains the importance of pancakes.
Sam is clearly still in a rut after everything that happened with "The Bad Place," learning that their mother, Mary is still trapped with Jack in another world. Sam tosses and turns in bed, refusing to wake up until after 10am, worrying Dean, who is typically the one you would imagine to sleep in on a rainy day. Dean refuses to let his brother stew in his own misery, however; as he tries to distract him and cheer him up, even making a breakfast complete with pancakes. When Sam tells him he isn't hungry, Dean feels the need to go into a big brother lecture on the importance of pancakes, keeping the vibe light, but also reminding Sam that he is there for him and won't give up. While it seems like a small gesture, Dean knows his brother better than anyone else in the world, proving to be a good friend and an even better brother.
Dean has a heart-to-heart chat with Doug.
When Sam and Dean show up to help Donna find her niece, they seamlessly embrace their familiar identities as FBI agents looking to do the right thing and help their…cousin. Dean senses that the FBI agent he is talking to my check up on him so he backs off and lets him take charge, explaining that he is there for moral support and to get to the bottom of what happened to his family member. Doug proves not to be the sharpest tool in the shed when he believes that Donna and Dean are actually related, comically inquiring about the recent family reunion. Doug innocently seeks out some advice from Dean about Donna and Dean even teaches him "that's how we do things in the FBI," bringing him along for the ride to track down the killer.
Once the Winchesters stumble onto the Butterfly's website, they are appalled by what they see. There is an online auction going on while a victim is strapped to a chair, as the bids climb higher and higher, competing over body parts. Sam realizes that they are chatting about the parts as if they were food…leading to the conclusion that it's basically "take out for monsters." They discover there is something supernatural at play here after all, re-thinking their strategy on how they will rescue Donna's niece and stop the evil in the nick of time.
Once the tables are turned on the Winchesters and they realize they are dealing with vampires, Sam is taken hostage and Doug is turned into a vampire to Donna's horror. Dean is not afraid of the vampire cashier boy in the slightest, whipping out his blade and giving fans a catchy pun we can all appreciate, "bring it Twilight." While there is hope for Doug to get a cure before he is permanently changed, our attention quickly shifts to Sam's safety when we learn that the bids are hitting some new records. Vampire and monster bidders everywhere relish the idea of snacking on the hunter, Sam Winchester and are looking to win the auction no matter what the cost is. The FBI agent reveals that he was the Butterfly killer all along, spinning a horrifying story about how he actually thinks he is saving lives by keeping the vampires occupied so they are not roaming the streets. Sam's heart gets auctioned for an impressive $500K but the show is over and Dean comes in to save the day, shutting down bids everywhere.
Doug can't handle a life with monsters.
While I was relieved to see that Doug was alright, something in my gut told me that we wouldn't be seeing him again. While he has a sweet and loving relationship with Donna, he could already feel the void as if she had been keeping something from him. When he gets tossed head first into the horrifying world of monsters, it's too much for Doug to handle. He clearly cares for Donna, but he wants something normal and routine…something that Donna can't give him because this is more than a job for her, it's a calling. While this sets the path for Donna to embrace her new destiny with the "Wayward Sisters," I can't help feeling incredibly sad for her. Donna deserves love and happiness but understands his decision. Sam and Dean are all too familiar with a life on the road away from attachments, but that doesn't mean that they can't be there for emotional support, helping each other along the way.


McKenna was due to appear at Nottingham magistrates court on Monday, Nottinghamshire police said.
Mark Fairhurst, national chairman of the POA, the union for prison workers, said the officer, who was new to the job and still in his probationary period, needed 17 stitches after allegedly being attacked with a razor. He has since been released from hospital.
An inspection report published last year found levels of violence at the prison were "very high", with 103 assaults on staff in the previous six months. Over the same period, there had been 198 incidents where prisoners had climbed on to safety netting between landings.
HMP Nottingham is a category B male prison. It was expanded in 2010 to accommodate 1,060 prisoners.

New York|Teacher Suspended After Trump References Were Removed From a Yearbook
Teacher Suspended After Trump References Were Removed From a Yearbook

By Liam Stack
A high school teacher in New Jersey was suspended on Monday after parents complained that their children's yearbook pictures or captions had been altered to remove references to President Donald J. Trump.
The teacher, who has not been publicly named, was the yearbook adviser at Wall Township High School near Asbury Park, said Kim Keator, executive secretary to Cheryl Dyer, the superintendent of schools.
In a statement posted online Saturday, Ms. Dyer said two parents had complained to the school district that their children's clothing appeared to have been digitally altered in their yearbook pictures and that "comments or quotes offered for inclusion in the yearbook were not published."
"References to and support of President Trump were involved in each of these incidents," Ms. Dyer wrote. She said the alterations amounted to "censorship and the possible violation of First Amendment rights."
"This allegation is being taken very seriously and a thorough investigation of what happened is being vigorously pursued," she wrote.
Ms. Keator said the suspension of the teacher would be in effect until that investigation was completed. She said she believed the suspension to be a form of paid leave.
The yearbook alterations appear to have affected at least three students from two families. Two parents, Joseph Berardo and Janet Dobrovich-Fago, spoke to CNN on Monday and said that their children's pictures or quotes had been changed. Attempts to reach both parents were unsuccessful on Monday.
"I want to know who thought it was O.K. to do this," Ms. Dobrovich-Fago told CNN.
The alterations affected her daughter Montana, the freshman class president, and son Wyatt, a junior, she told CNN. Montana submitted a quote by Mr. Trump that was not published in the yearbook, and a picture of Wyatt was altered to remove Mr. Trump's name from the vest he wore on picture day, she said.
In an appearance on Fox News on Monday morning, Wyatt Dobrovich-Fago said he thought the alterations happened because "someone just didn't like our president and didn't want to have him in the yearbook."
"There is a deliberate attempt to censor and to silence someone's freedom of speech," he said on Fox.
A photograph of Grant Berardo, a junior, was also changed, his father, Joseph, told CNN. On picture day Grant wore a shirt that said "TRUMP: Make America Great Again" written across the front. But when he got his yearbook, the photograph had been digitally altered to look like his shirt was plain black.
Mr. Berardo told CNN he wanted the school to reissue the yearbook without the digital alterations, but he said he also thought the episode could be a learning experience for everyone involved.
"There is an opportunity to use this as a teaching moment for the kids, and for the teachers as well," Mr. Berardo told CNN. "This is a First Amendment, freedom of speech issue."
In her statement, Ms. Dyer said a decision to edit political references from a student's outfit in a yearbook picture would find no support in the school district's dress code. She said the only clothing students were not allowed to wear were garments that alluded to the use of alcohol, drugs or weapons
"There is nothing in Wall Township High School's student dress code that would prevent a student from expressing his or her political views, or support for a political figure, via appropriate clothing and attire," she said in the statement. "Indeed, the administration applauds students for becoming involved in politics, making their voices known, and taking an active part in our democracy."

Numbers, Videos
False Earnings Claims (Again)
October 17, 2019 October 17, 2019 false earnings claims
I'm bringing back an article we published a few years ago about false earnings claims. I love these videos of sales directors lying about how much money is made in Mary Kay. The false earnings claims are so rampant because that is the top way women are recruited into Mary Kay. It's all about the money.
Below is Mary Kay sales director Rachael Bullock falsely claiming that MK consultants make $5,000 to $25,000 per year, sales directors make $5,000 to $25,000 per month (which calculates to $60,000 to $300,000 per year), and national sales directors make $5,000 to $25,000 per week (which calculates to $260,000 to $1.3 million per year).
Then we have Mary Kay sales director Kelly Brock falsely claiming that Mary Kay consultants make $2,000 to $25,000 per year (she even says that is a national average to make it sound official). She says that sales directors make $2,000 to $2,500 per month (which calculates to $24,000 to $300,000 per year), and national sales directors make $25,000 to $100,000 per month (which calculates to $360,000 to $1.2 million per year).
Do you see anything wrong with the claims these women are making? Why are there differences in the numbers? Because they are completely fabricated.
The truth is that that 99% of people lose money in MLM, and very little product is actually sold to real customers (scroll down to "Why Retailing Does Not Occur"). We have discussed over and over and over and over again how little product is actually sold, which means that consultants are not profiting.
And sales directors? The sad truth is that most make about minimum wage. There are about 9,000 sales directors in the United States, out of about 500,000 total consultants. The upper level of those sales directors (about 1,100 pink Cadillac drivers who make up about 0.002% –two tenths of one percent — of the US sales force), make about $30,000 to $40,000 per year. The next tier, "Premier Club" Mary Kay sales directors, who probably number about 2,000, make about $15,000 to $20,000 per year. The rest of the sales directors, about 7,000 of them, are at minimum wage at best.
And the national sales directors? Some are making big money. But many of them are not making an "executive income," even after more than 20 years in the business. It got so bad that Mary Kay stopped publishing all of the incomes for the national sales directors, and now only publishes the top incomes.
MLMs constantly push their "income opportunity." But when it is pointed out how few people are actually making money in Mary Kay, the company is quick to say that no one really wants to profit anyway!

That is not an "average" … that's a wildly optimistic range, and we know that very few are making any money at all. "claiming that Mary Kay consultants make $2,000 to $25,000 per year (she even says that is a national average to make it sound official)

But just remember, their opinions don't pay your bills. Hahah neither does that executive Mary Kay income.


Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour 2 baking sheets with 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons of flour. Mark parallel lines in the flour across the width of the tray about 4 inches apart. Put the eggs and sugar in a large mixing bowl, and with an electric mixer fitted with a wire whisk beat on medium-high speed until the mixture is pale yellow, thick, and has tripled in volume, about 8 minutes, using the mixer. Add the egg whites, remaining 3/4 cup flour, salt and vanilla, fold to mix thoroughly so the mixture is smooth. Fill a large pastry bag with a 3/4-inch plain tube with the mixture. Pipe fingers about 4 1/2-inches in length on to the baking sheet, using the lines as a guide. Dust the lady fingers with powdered sugar. Bake until for 15 to 18 minutes, or until just firm on the outside and soft in the center.


Today was one of those days: Stella's cuteness just completely overwhelmed me. Even more so than usual. Gave me that tickling sensation in my heart, which I almost can't stand.
I hugged and kissed her constantly. Touched my forehead and/or nose to hers whenever possible. Frequently and eagerly picked her up and spun her around and around (Stella, after tenth time: "More? More?" while signing "more"; Me: "SURE! I'm glad you asked!"). I sat and stared as she attempted to remove CDs from the stereo, ate delicious and helpfully thick Greek yogurt from an upside-down spoon, and repeatedly put a tennis ball through a cylindrical block.
Then, after the meal, as usual, she started whining incessantly and clinging to me, which made cleaning up (and breathing) difficult. So I gave her some chocolate chips to get her off my case.

After the success of Fazaia Housing Scheme Phase 1, located on Raiwind Road, Lahore, the Directorate of Estate Projects, Pakistan Air Force decided to launch Fazaia Housing Scheme Phase 2, on Sunder Industrial Estate Road near Sharif Medical City.
With fool-proof security and timeless architecture, Fazaia Housing Scheme (FHS) is a residential project in Lahore by Pakistan Air Force (PAF), offering residential and commercial plots for sale. In FHS Phase 1 there are A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, J, K blocks, where you can become proud owners of 10 marla, 32 marla and 1 kanal residential plots. You can also find 2 marla and 5 marla commercial plots for sale. In FHS Phase 2 there are A, B, C, D blocks which have 5 marla, 7 marla, 10 marla and 1 kanal residential plots and 2 marla and 5 marla commercial plots for sale. Fazaia Housing Scheme is one of the top housing developments of Lahore owing to its feasible planning, peaceful location and provision of day to day necessities. FHS is not only ideal for living but it is also ideal for investment purposes.
Being a project of Pakistan Air Force, one can feel at ease that the security will be well taken care of. The scheme proudly offers a gated community with 24/7 high alert security guards and security tolls that will only let a guest pass after confirmation from the resident or after handing over the national ID card. Both the projects of Fazaia Housing Scheme are approved by the Lahore Development Authority (LDA).
FHS Phase 1 offers 10 marla, 32 marla and 1 kanal residential plots for sale or you can consider buying the luxurious homes built by approved builders of PAF. The commercial plots in FHS Phase 1 are available in 2 marla and 5 marla sizes. The area is easily accessible to the main city via Ring Road, Raiwind Road and LDA Structure Road.
The new phase Fazaia Housing Scheme Phase 2 offers residential plots of 5 marla, 7 marla, 10 marla and 1 kanal for sale and commercial plots of 2 marla and 5 marla for sale. Both the projects of FHS have included mosques in the master plan, i.e. a grand Jamiah mosque that can accommodate up to 1500 namazis at a time and another mosque for people residing in distant homes of the society. The additional mosque is to ensure that all the residents have a mosque within a 5-minute walking distance. There will be a community center in the scheme which will have different types of cafes, where the residents can sit, eat and socialize. The scheme also has commercial centers and public transportation access close by.
Fazaia Housing Scheme Phase 1 is located on Raiwind Road and includes a major part of Ring Road and LDA Structure Road, whereas Fazaia Housing Scheme Phase 2 is located on Sunder Industrial Estate Road, Lahore. With the completion of Ring Road, the location of the project has become an ideal one as it gives you access to all the facilities of the main city, required for a comfortable living – schools, universities, hospitals, offices, restaurants, shopping malls, etc. To provide for quality education, the area has many good schools including Allied School, Pak Turk School, Froebel's International School, Unique High School and Science Academy, Bahria Town School, Dar e Arqam School, Govt. Elementary School, Govt. Girls School, etc.

What the freak is wrong with FreakShakes?
We may lose freak shakes this Sugar Awareness week (12th-18th November).
During the week charity 'Action on Sugar' discussed the future of sugar and calorie reduction. As this year's theme is 'Eating out', their first call is to propose a ban on Freakshakes. Especially in cafes and restaurants because of the excessive calorie content.
"I've worked as a nutritionist for a couple of years. Obviously, this news didn't surprise me at all" -Martha Johnson, told Voice of London.
"People have a right to know about nutrition information and they need to be aware of what they consume. However, I don't think that the idea of banning these products is quite right. Personally, I would rather call for writing information on sugars, calories and norms clearly in every menu. Strong restrictions would only make people angry and make them want it even more. There is a very close connection between nutrition and psychology".
People reacted quickly following the news on Twitter. Some are in shock, and they can't believe that they were consuming so many calories at once, also allowing their children to do the same. Others think that they can decide what to drink or eat by themselves.
Are you guys behind this push to ban frekshakes? Don't you think there are more important things to worry about? If I want a loaded sugar milkshake then I should be able to make the decision for myself. It's laughable that you're trying to ban them.
Evil evil people if you want to ban my OCCASIONAL treat!!! If it was up to you we all would eat rabbit food, if I had to eat boring foods… Why stay living?
"Let's talk about McDonald's, for example. Their burgers have more than 500 calories, but people always have more food and drinks there. So, a person can easily eat 1500-2000 calories at once. Interestingly, after eating fast food, most people become hungry fast. So, it won't be their first or last intake of the day. Why don't we have a ban on fast food restaurants then?" – added Martha.
Voice of London tried to contact McDonald's, but no one was available.
What do we know about Freakshakes?
Some of the shakes contain more than 40 teaspoons of sugar, which is six times more than the recommended norm.

Home > Education in Assam
Education in Assam
Assam has an impressive track record with education. As per the Census Report of 2011, its literacy rate is 73.18% with the urban areas showing a higher percentage at 88.88%, and the rural areas with 70.44%. Statistically, males and females have a discrepancy in their literacy rates, but still the urban females at 67.27% are much higher than the all India female literacy rate (65.46%).
The education system in Assam is categorized into school education and college or university education. The Government of Assam handles the major part of the education; however, there are schools and colleges that are run by private concerns and famous educationists in the state. The institutions under the state government follow a state centric syllabus. The private educational concerns have their own syllabus, administration and fee structure. Assamese is the medium of instruction in the state run schools, whereas English is preferred as the medium of instruction in the private ones and the colleges and universities.
Primary education in Assam
Being part of the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (Mission for the Education for All), initiated by the Central Government, the state provides free compulsory elementary education to children of the ages of 6 to 14 (Class I to VII). Under this initiative, students are provided with study material, uniforms and even mid day meals. Since the year 2002, the percentage of students out of school has decreased remarkably from 24.39%, in 2002, to 3.56%, in 2009.
A five-year old child begins his educational journey from a pre-primary school. The hierarchy in the schools in Assam thereon is:
Till Class V
Middle Till Class VIII
High Till Class X
Higher secondary/Junior College Till Class XI
State run public, self financed private as well as government aided schools offer quality education to children in the cities and towns of Assam. Most of the schools follow the state's education and examination board. Many of the private schools follow the CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education) and ICSE/ISC (Indian Certificate for Secondary Education for Class X/Indian School Certificate for Class XII) syllabuses. The infrastructure of the schools is well developed with playgrounds, libraries and spacious classrooms. Teachers imparting the education have professional degrees and expertise in the subject they teach. Top schools in the state include:

There is a Women's College in Tinsukia that offers junior college and vocational courses as well. These vocational courses include tourism and travel management, food and nutrition, fashion designing, Tally 7.2, Office XP, DCA and Spoken and Functional English, which require a higher secondary education. Courses such as Beautician (Basic and Advance) and Internet does not require any formal education. Pre primary and primary school training, and journalism and mass communication courses require a graduation. All these courses are of short durations of less than or equal to one year.
Graduation and PG level courses in Assam
Assam takes its higher education seriously. It is no wonder that the subjects covered in the universities are diverse. Several private, government and government sponsored private institutions have been newly set up, along with the older ones, to enhance the level of professional courses taught in the state in both the technical and non-technical subjects. These new developments include an engineering college (third in Assam), polytechnic college in Diphu, new Gauhati Univesity campus at Kokrajhar and the introduction of an integrated five-year law course at the Government Law College in the state's capital, Guwahati.
For the 3-year graduation courses the candidates need to have passed the higher secondary examination as it is prevalent in other states. Admission to the colleges is, therefore, based on merit in terms of board exam marks. Students can find both general and major degree courses in the graduation level. There are compulsory subjects of English and a second language (Assamese, Bengali and Alternative English), and environmental studies that needs to be taken along with the subjects of the students' choice.
The National Assessment and Accreditation Council in India have recognized about 200 institutions in various places in Assam. Top colleges in Assam include:

Education for Foreign students in Assam
Foreign students can directly apply at the university they choose. For instance, if you want to study engineering in Assam, you do not have to give the Joint Admission Test. You need to apply to the engineering college.
Hostels and accommodation in Assam
Non-resident and foreign students can avail of the hostels in the universities of Gauhati, Dibrugarh, Assam and Tezpur. Many of the professional colleges offer resident courses in which the students have to stay in campus while the course is in session. The hostels are separate for the boys and girls. To apply for hostel facility, fill the respective form for accommodation during admission. Proof of address, guardian's information and passport-sized photographs are generally required while filling the form.


"Why" is the #1 question that universities should be able to answer. The fact that he doesn't want to is a disappointment.
Everyone should be able to thank God at the end of their university experience. Students should be able to because they're leaving professors they don't care for in the rear view mirror (although their evaluation may change over the years).
And professors need to be able to reciprocate with certain students as well.

Q: XSLT: Dealing with TEI milestone elements My question is related to: XSLT with overlapping elements? – but the proposed solution is not working for me.
Input
I have some TEI-XML encoded like this:
<delSpan spanTo="#abcbb6b8-b7bd-4b96-93c1-0a34500e12c0"/>
<lg>
    <l>some text that is deleted</l>
</lg>
<lg>
    <l>much more text</l>
    <l>another line of text</l>
</lg>
<anchor xml:id="abcbb6b8-b7bd-4b96-93c1-0a34500e12c0"/>

I want to process it with XSL and my output should look like:

        some text that is deleted

        much more text
        another line of text

XSLT
At the moment I am trying to work with the following templates:
<xsl:template match="tei:delSpan">
    <xsl:variable name="id">
        <xsl:value-of select="substring-after(@spanTo, '#')"/>
    </xsl:variable>
    <xsl:for-each-group select="*" group-ending-with="tei:anchor[@xml:id=$id]">

            <xsl:apply-templates />

    </xsl:for-each-group>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="tei:lg">

        <xsl:apply-templates/>

</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="tei:l">

        <xsl:apply-templates/>

</xsl:template>

But this just produces the following output:

        some text that is deleted

        much more text
        another line of text

So I am asking myself if there is any common and easy solution to deal with so called milestone-elements and process like described above?

A: If you move the for-each-group to the parent element of any delSpan (or any element you expect to apply the wrapping to) then it would look like
  <xsl:template match="*[delSpan]">
      <xsl:for-each-group select="*" group-starting-with="delSpan">
          <xsl:choose>
              <xsl:when test="self::delSpan">
                  <xsl:variable name="id-ref" select="substring(@spanTo, 2)"/>

                      <xsl:for-each-group select="current-group() except ." group-ending-with="id($id-ref)">
                          <xsl:choose>
                              <xsl:when test="current-group()[last()] is id($id-ref)">
                                  <xsl:apply-templates select="current-group()[not(position() = last())]"/>
                              </xsl:when>
                              <xsl:otherwise>
                                  <xsl:apply-templates select="current-group()"/>
                              </xsl:otherwise>
                          </xsl:choose>
                      </xsl:for-each-group>

              </xsl:when>
              <xsl:otherwise>
                  <xsl:apply-templates select="current-group()"/>
              </xsl:otherwise>
          </xsl:choose>
      </xsl:for-each-group>
  </xsl:template>

3:1 "And to the angel of the assembly in (a) Sardis write, 'These things says (b) He who has the seven Spirits of [Yehovah] and the seven stars: (c) "I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead.
Sardis, about 39 miles south and slightly east of Thyatira and 50 miles east of Smyrna, was a very prosperous city located on important commercial routes. Some wealthy citizens were involved in mystery cults, and the general citizenry worshiped Greek deities like Artemis, to whom was dedicated a great temple in Sardis. There was also a Jewish synagogue there that was much larger than any found even in Judea.
Here the seven spirits of Yehovah ("God") and the seven stars (angels) are seen as being held by the Son as in 2:1. They are active in the communication and execution of the events of the Revelation.
The assembly at Sardis had a reputation as being an active, lively assembly, but the Lord declares that she is (spiritually) dead.
3:2-3 "(a) Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die, for I have not found your works perfect before [Yahuah]. Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. (b) Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you.
The Lord gives the Believers at Sardis a series of things to do to remedy their deathly spiritual condition: be vigilant (a command of the Lord to followers of the Messiah); strengthen the few, emaciated, imperfect attributes or good works that remain; remember how they had at first received the new life in the Messiah and heard from Yehovah; hold fast to the little that they have left of what they had received from the Lord; and repent of their lethargy in the Spirit.
The consequence of not being watchful in the Spirit was that the Lord would come on them when they least expected it, and that was not to bless or reward them (cf. a similar warning in Matthew 24:43-44). Notice also that the warnings to "chastise" those who fail to repent and mend their ways (2:5, 16, 23; 3:3) is to congregations of the Assembly, not to unbelievers.
Though, for all practical purposes, the assembly at Sardis was spiritually dead, there were a few individual members who had not been separated from Yehovah by the "unclean spirit" that defiled the assembly as a whole.
Those few who overcome (continue in their faithfulness to the Lord) are given several promises: white garments - a symbol of the spiritual purity of the Redeemed in Heaven (cf. 6:11; 7:14); walking with the Lord in eternity (cf. 1 Thessalonians 4:17); and not having their names blotted out of the Book of Life.
It is not that it is their own worthiness that will save them, but that they are clothed with the worthiness of the Lord (cf. Galatians 3:27).
Brethren, be . . . diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble; for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior [Yeshua the Messiah] (2 Peter 1:10-11); He that shall endure to the end, the same shall be saved (Matthew 24:13); He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life (3:5).
The question for the OSAS advocates is: How can someone's name be blotted out of the Book of Life if it was never written there in the first place?
I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified (from receiving the "imperishable crown" of eternal life) (1 Corinthians 9:25, 27).
Again, the question for the OSAS advocates is: Why would Paul be concerned about "becoming disqualified" from receiving eternal life if there was no possibility of him doing that? Paul also pointed out that those Believers in Yeshua ("Jesus") who are grafted into the cultivated olive tree - the "commonwealth of Israel" - will be cut off if they do not continue in the goodness of Yehovah (Romans 11:22; Ephesians 2:12).
Notice though, that although those whose names are written in the Book of Life were chosen "in Him [the Messiah] before the foundation of the world," and were "predestined . . . to adoption as sons by [Yeshua the Messiah] to Himself" (Ephesians 1:4, 5), none of these Scriptures state that one cannot, of his own volition, turn his back on Yehovah and reject the gift of salvation that he has been given, just as we can trash any gift we are given, do they? He still has a choice whether to remain faithful to the Lord, or to turn his back on Him. As the Lord told His chosen people Israel, "I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live" (Deuteronomy 30:19), the same applies to His people the Assembly of Followers of Yeshua regarding their eternal life in the Messiah. Perhaps a solution is to understand that the salvation of the Lord is a process, not a once-for-all, done deal (cf. 1 Corinthians 1:18, Philippians 2:12), and although He wants us to be (subjectively) sure of our security in Him at any given point in time, nothing is more deceitful than the human heart (Jeremiah 17:9) and we, like Paul, should not take our salvation for granted or turn our backs on it. In our human understanding, we cannot fully grasp the apparent paradox of Yehovah's choosing us versus us choosing Him, but let us remember that His ways are infinitely beyond our comprehension (cf. Job 11:7-9) and that, in the end, faith trumps understanding. Yes, the responsibility and freedom of choice seems to contradict the sovereignty of God, but total determinism seems to just as great an extent to undermine His grace. That's where humility and faith come in - the humility to admit that Yehovah's ways are far above what our rational minds can comprehend and the faith to accept His Word correctly interpreted, although at times it seems paradoxical, as always absolutely true. The rational mind cannot accept what it cannot understand, but faith can.
There is really no such thing as a "secret sin" or a "secret good deed," for we are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses—all the heavenly host (cf. Hebrews 12:1). The angels look with great interest on how the Lord's People handle the trials and tribulations of life. And if we do not deny the Messiah before men, either by our words or by our actions, He will proclaim that we are His, not only before Yehovah the Father but before all the angels.
The assembly at Sardis represents the virtually spiritually dead assembly.
Philadelphia was a Roman-built city 28 miles southeast of Sardis and 100 miles east of Smyrna. The main "god" of the Romans was the emperor—Domitian at the time of the writing of the Revelation about 95 CE. Because they refused to worship him, the persecution of the Disciples of Yeshua was strong during the reign of Domitian. Hence, most expositors believe that John was on Patmos because he was banished there by the Emperor.
These are more identifiers of the Lord Yeshua: holy, true, having David's keys.
Since David was the King of Israel from whose throne the Messiah was prophesied to rule forever (cf. Jeremiah 33:17, et al.), these are the keys of the Kingdom, which the Messiah will open or close to whomever He pleases.
3:8-9 "I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name. Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie - indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know I have loved you.
The assembly at Philadelphia is commended because, although she is weak, she has kept Yeshua's Word and has not denied His name although she probably has been under considerable persecution by both the Romans and the false Israelites (the "synagogue of Satan," as in 2:9). So, He has opened a door to the Kingdom for her, where the persecuting Jews will have to worship at the Philadelphia Believers' feet, admitting that they are the true People of Yehovah - the ones He has loved.
3:10 "Because you have kept my command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.
This is a controversial verse. Let us see if, by the grace of Yehovah, we can sort it out.
The assembly at Philadelphia is also promised that, because she has persevered although she is weak, the Lord will "keep [her] from the hour of trial." Some expositors say this means that the world-wide Assembly of Believers in Yeshua will be removed from Earth prior to the seven years of "tribulation." However, common sense protests that interpretation: Why are not the other assemblies, especially the poor, persecuted assembly at Smyrna about whom the Lord had nothing negative to say, given the same promise? Also, as will be shown later, the only part of the seven years that is described as a time of special tribulation for the Assembly is the Great Tribulation (cf. 7:14), which is a limited period of time within the seven years. And the Great Tribulation is the time of severe persecution of Yehovah's people, not of the whole world, as this verse states. Thirdly, this is the hour of temptation or testing (Greek: peirasmos) that will come on the world, not the tribulation (Greek: thlipsis), oppression, or affliction that will come on Yehovah's People. So, what the Lord is saying here is that because the members of the assembly at Philadelphia are persevering in the Lord, He will keep them (protect them) from giving in to (rather than take them out of) the temptation or testing that will come on the unsaved world. Yeshua never promised His Disciples that they would not suffer physically or that He would take them out of the world so that they would not have to suffer, but He did promise them that he would always be with them, comforting and protecting them spiritually (cf. Hebrews 13:5).
Although you are weak, do not give up! Hold on. I am coming quickly! The Lord continues to encourage a sense of imminence. Although, from Earth's perspective, it may be thousands of years until His return, from Heaven's perspective, it is very soon, a puff of smoke compared to eternity.
Although the Kingdom of Elohiym (God) is not yet physically actualized, the true Assembly is seen by the Lord as royalty in the Kingdom (cf. 1:6). And He reassures the assembly at Philadelphia that if she will "hold fast," He will personally return to see to it that no one takes her crown.
The assembly at Philadelphia is the inconspicuous, not very powerful assembly who, nevertheless, faithfully holds to the Truth and refuses to deny the name of Yeshua, even in the midst of persecution.
This is a preview of the faithful believer's place in the ultimate, fantastic Kingdom of God/Kingdom of Heaven, where all becomes one in the Lord. The new name that no one can understand except the one who receives it (2:17) is the unknown name of Yehovah. See Chapters 21 and 22 for more details about how the redeemed are identified with the Temple and the New Jerusalem that come down out of Heaven.
Laodicea, 56 miles southeast of Philadelphia and about 90 miles east of Ephesus, was originally a Greek city named Diospolis, the "City of Zeus." Later, after being taken over by the Romans, it was on a major trade route between the Middle East and Ephesus, and was a very worldly, wealthy city. The assembly at Laodicea was one of the earliest to be established in Asia, probably because there was a large population of Jews there. The apostle Paul directed that his letter to the assembly at Colossae, which was only eleven miles from Laodicea, also be read in the assembly at Laodicea (Colossians 4:16).
The Lord Yeshua again (cf. 1:8) introduces Himself as the Beginning and the End - the final Word ("Amen") and the Beginning of Creation (cf. John 1:1-3) - and also as the True Witness (cf. John 8:14).
3:15-16 "I know your works, that (a) you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, (b) I will vomit you out of my mouth.
The Laodicean assembly was passionate neither for the truth and righteousness of the Lord nor against falsehood and evil. They were disgusting to the Lord.
This is the harshest sentence passed on any of the seven assemblies - total rejection by the Lord.
The contrast between material wealth and spiritual riches is striking in the assembly at Laodicea. The Laodicean assembly was affluent in the things of this world, so much so that she was blind to her spiritual poverty and insensitive to her own miserable condition, lacking the fruit of the Spirit - the peace, love, and joy of the Lord.
The Lord's solution was to "buy from Me gold refined by fire," which simply means to give sacrificially and to suffer hardship for the sake of the Kingdom of God. For materially wealthy people, this has to be voluntary; it will not occur just because of the circumstances in which they are comfortable. The way Yeshua put it was, "Deny [yourself], and take up [your] cross daily, and follow Me" (Luke 9:23). In other words, the Laodicean assembly had to release her grip on her possessions and dedicate them to the Gospel if she wanted a real, spiritually vibrant relationship with the Lord. Other solutions were to be clothed with the righteousness of the Lord so that her covetousness not be revealed and to clear her vision with the Truth so that she could see her nauseating condition and what to do about it.
Finally, to avoid the loving chastening of her Heavenly Father (cf. Hebrews 12:6), the Laodicean church is exhorted to exercise the zeal that she lacks, in repenting of her insipid ways.
Of all the seven assemblies, the materially properous but spiritually impotent, insipid assembly at Laodicea most typifies the American assembly of Believers in Yeshua (the "Christian Church").
3:20 "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come into him and dine with him, and he with Me.
This promise is directed to the individual members of the Body of the Messiah. It has been used in witnessing to the unsaved, but in context, it carries the sad implication that affluent, worldly, lukewarm Believers, like those in Laodicea, have shut the Lord out of their lives. But because He loves them so much, He is still knocking at the door of their hearts, offering to come back in and fellowship with them in the Spirit if they will repent and open the door.
As with the letters to the other six assemblies, this final exhortation and promise is to the individual believers in all assemblies of the Lord. And the promise to the Overcomers in the Assembly of Yehovah is a wonderful one: We will sit on His throne with Him and reign with Him (See the end of the Revelation - 20:6; 22:5).
And again, as is emphasized over and over in the Revelation, life in the Messiah is not a passive religion. It is a religion for workers and overcomers, "until the end," in the Kingdom of God. Yeshua does not say, "If you love Me, just sit still and wait for My return," does He? He says, "If you love Me, keep my commandments" (John 14:15). He does not say, "If you will just have faith, you will be saved," does He? He says that he who exercises patience and labors for His name's sake and does not become weary (2:3) and repents and does the first works (2:5) and hates the doctrines and deeds of the false teachers and prophets (1:6, 15) and holds fast to His name and does not deny His faith (2:13) and works and loves and serves (2:19) and holds fast to what he has (2:25; 3:11) and keeps His works until the end (2:26) and is watchful and strengthens the things that remain and is ready to die (3:2) and remembers how he has received and heard (3:3) and keeps His command to persevere (3:10) and buys from Him gold refined in the fire and white garments and eye salve (3:18) and is zealous (3:19) and hears His voice and opens the door (3:20) and finally, overcomes (2:7, 11, 17, 26; 3:5, 12, 21), to him, He will grant to sit with Him on His throne (3:21).

THE story of 150 years of engineering excellence at Crewe Works is brought to vividly to life in a new book.
For decades Crewe was famous all over the world for the great locomotives crafted at the huge West Street plant.
Altogether more than 8,250 steam, diesel and electric locos were built by generations of skilled workers.
This story has now been told in a book called Made in Crewe which contains hundreds of pictures and a series of authoritative articles, and has been written by heritage transport writer and photographer Keith Langston.
Over the years it built locos for the Grand Junction Railway, the London & North Western Railway, the London Midland and Scottish Railway and British Railways.
Many of the 250 images in the book are published for the first time.
Highlighted are locomotive types ranging from Webb Coal Tanks to the mighty Stanier Pacifics which included the Coronation Scot Streamliners, Standard Class steamers through the dawn of diesel to the last new build AEC Electric locomotives to leave the workshops.
The introduction of Made in Crewe charts the history of the works and highlights some of the great locomotive engineers whose designs helped to make it world famous.
Amongst the legendary steam locomotives picked out for special mention are the Jubilee and Black Five 4-6-0s and two celebrated freight engine types, the Stanier 8F 2-8-0s and the LNWR 'Super D' 0-8-0.
The comprehensive publication also spotlights the Hughes/Fowler, Stanier and Ivatt 2-6-0 'Moguls' and takes a look at those other LMS express stalwarts Royal Scots and Patriots. Between 1951 and 1954 the Britannia class of Standard locomotives were built at Crewe.
The book features the two surviving members of that type, loco number 70000, Britannia and 71000 Duke of Gloucester which was rolled out of theWorks in 1954.
Having been completely rebuilt in preservation, that engine is now thought by some to be the most advanced steam locomotive in the world.
Additionally there are sections concerning the long lost 'Clans' and the highly successful 9F type 2-10-0 freight locomotives.
Crewe-built modern traction is featured in a dedicated 23-page section and in a fascinating conclusion to this railway special publication the cost in human life of railway locomotive building over the years is highlighted.
The pictures reproduced here are taken from Made in Crewe.

What better way to welcome fall and our upcoming favorite holiday, Halloween, than to add one of the best mystery shows there is to your collection, Scooby Doo.The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo! The Complete Series, appropraitely has 13 episodes of Scooby-Doo thats a whopping five plus hours of Scooby-Doo and Shaggy too fun!
Scooby-Doo truely seems to be the cartoon that just keeps on going, Scooby-Doo was popular when I was a kid and even way before my time as well. Who can blame them though its just one of those shows that's endlessly fun. There are always new mysteries to solve, always more ghosts, always more people to reveal as wrongdoers, though their wardrobe has changed a bit over the years it's still the same gang that I watched as a child and it still has the same appeal. Most importantly compared to some children's programing these days Scooby-Doo is one of those shows I can let my kids watch without wondering what they are truly watching and if I should be monitoring every word. What's not to like about that?
The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo follows Scooby-Doo and his friends as they investigate 13 of the world's meanest baddest "real" ghosts all of which were once trapped in the Chest of Demons and have now been let free.. by Scooby-Doo himself. Not that Scooby actually meant to do it but you know how he is always putting his nose into things that he most likely should have left alone! It's now up to Scooby to return all the ghosts to the chest and fix the big mess he created in the first place! Each episode in the collection follows Scooby as he finds and captures all the ghosts he so unwittingly let free!
Also including on The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo is a special bonus episode from the Shaggy & Scooby-Doo get a Clue series. Heh, appropriately titled as they might just need a clue after cleaning up the whole ghost mess!
The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo The Complete Series is available right now and you can pick up your copy on Amazon !
Disclosure: We were given a copy of The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo The Complete Series free of charge, we were not compensated for this post in any other way. My opinions and comments on items we review are always my own and are never influenced by sponsors.
Keane loves loves loves Scooby Doo!!!


While on a lookout for great-looking referral programs, we discovered The Clymb, which sells everything you'll need for your next outdoors adventure.
They have a referral program that's sleek, stylish, simple and compelling.
When a successful referral is made, Clymb rewards both parties.
The referrer (Alice) gets $15 credit towards her next purchase, while the referred friend (Bob) gets $15 off his first purchase.
The referral program has a minimum purchase amount of $50.
Members browsing individual product pages can share them with friends by clicking the above button, which prompts to type in their friends' email addresses.
3: Invite a Friend, which redirects her to her "Invite Friends" tab where she is reminded of the dual-sided incentives, and is prompted to refer her friends through whichever means she wants.
The personal invite link that she shares with her friends directs them to a unique personalised sign-up page, where they can join the exclusive Clymb membership club by simply providing their name, email address, password, and zipcode.
Notice the compelling "Members-Only Prices" copy!
On the website, the referral call-to-action button is located at the top right-hand corner of the header, and appears on all pages.
So…what can we learn from all this?
Be subtle, but always be visible. The call-to-action should always be within sight and reach, but never in a place that will annoy and disrupt the browsing experience.
Make your referral program appear in all of your marketing collateral. Have your referral program button appear in all your marketing media, e.g. emails, newsletters, etc. Doing so in a non-intrusive and elegant way will subconsciously drill the idea into them, and they can easily click to refer a friend ANYTIME.
We've certainly enjoyed exploring The Clymb's website and referral program.
If you'd like to learn a bit more about refer-a-friend programs for apparel stores, click here!


Sparta, Orion and Cody. Three energetic dogs. Calm moments like this don't just happen, I work to make sure they happen.
Okay, I get it. The holidays are here. It's cold outside, and you're just so busy. That doesn't leave a lot of extra time for giving your dog the Activity that they require. Getting your dog's daily quota of Work in shouldn't be that difficult. You are feeding them with an enrichment toy, right? (If not, read this article to find out why Work is so important.) But just because you're busy doesn't mean that your dog's need for Activity is suddenly gone.
Now, I want to go outside as much as the next person in this weather (Cleveland weather can be very unforgiving). But there are more ways to give your dog exercise than just with a walk. I currently have a pack of three, Sparta (100 lb. rottie/shep mix), Orion (7 lb. papillon) and Cody (a Labradoodle that I'm boarding). That's a lot of dog and I don't necessarily have the time nor the inclination to take each of them for a long hike every day. That's why I cheat. There are plenty of ways to exercise a dog that don't involve freezing outside.
Yeah, I know. I treadmill is definitely an investment in both space and money. But you can pick up a treadmill from Goodwill, Craigslist or Salvation Army for under $100. Do the math: how much damage has your dog done to say, your couch, because they had too much energy? That $100 you spend on a treadmill is actually an insurance policy to prevent your dog from destroying perhaps thousands of dollars worth of items in your home, including your sanity. Here's a video on how to get your dog started on the treadmill.
When Sparta was 6 months old, my husband and I practically lived at the dog park. Sparta is a huge dog who had a huge appetite for Activity when she was younger. In the winter, that can be problem. So every night my husband and I would take turns with who would take her to the dog park. She would run and gambol among a pack of huskies who showed up every night, come home tired, and not destroy things. If you don't have a dog park near you, what about just setting up a play date for your dog? Pick another dog of a similar age and similar playing style. Sparta, and my boarder, Cody, both love to wrestle together. Orion is a runner. That leaves him odd-man out, so sometimes I take Orion to my mother's house to play with her dog, Kiwi, another runner.
No, agility doesn't have to involve classes or joining a group. In my house, agility is two soup cans with a yardstick balanced across them. All the dogs in my house learn quickly how to jump over and go under on command.
Five minutes of this, and Sparta has had her energy levels at least topped off. When she and Orion were both younger, it could sometimes be difficult to manage their energy while trying to get rid of their energy. In other words, they needed to get exercise prior to going for a walk so the walk wasn't unbearable. We would do agility for roughly 5 minutes before our walk, and that did the trick. It brought their energy levels down to bearable amounts so I could take them for a walk with more ease.
Another benefit to agility is that it gives you an opportunity for positive reinforcement, which helps you bond with your dog. You're both working towards the same goal, and each time your dog hit that goal, you create the pack mentality of "we did it together". Sometimes you really need that positive.
The video below shows how to train a dog to jump through a hoop. The concept is no different when training a dog to jump over a yardstick balanced on two soup cans.
I've been touting the benefits of backpacks for dogs for years. It's a cheap, easy way to top off their energy levels. Sparta below is kindly modeling her backpack. She wears it on walks, but she also wears it inside the house.
When she was younger, Sparta would wear the backpack all day while I was home (never leave a backpack on a dog unsupervised). I would put about 1/4-1/2 pound of weight on each side, and the very act of carrying around that extra bulk all day would take the edge off her. When we would go for a hike, I would add another pound of weight to each side.
A good rule of thumb for a dog is to start out with 1/2% of their body weight total in the backpack. Work up from there, but never more than 5% max. Sparta currently has one package of coffee on each side of her backpack, for a total of 2 lbs. She's getting older, and I don't want so much stress on her back and her joints. At 100 lbs., that's only 2% of her total body weight. I use things like dried beans, rice, coffee…things that disseminate evenly across the backpack (no water bottles, and nothing too interesting, like, say…dog food). No water bottles; they bang against the dog's ribs as they walk, and are typically too heavy and bulky. Here is a link to the brand that I usually use.
Yes, your dog may love fetch, and it may take a while for them to get worn out playing fetch indoors, so why not make it more difficult? Sparta is not a fetch dog. I wish she were, but as I discussed in this article, you can't make fetch happen. However, if you have a dog who loves fetch, go for it, but tweak it a little for inside the house.
I put utilize the soup cans and yard stick again from agility. Place it in a threshold through which you throw the toy. The dog has to jump over it to retrieve the ball, thus burning more energy. I'll also throw the ball up and down the steps. What about putting the backpack on your dog (with a small amount of weight) while playing fetch. Think outside the, er…ball, and see how you can make fetch more of a workout for your dog.
I sometime wonder about the dogs in shelters, the owner surrenders. How many of them surrendered their dogs because the dog was unmanageable in the house, when what really happened was the house became unmanageable for the dog, like in this scenario. Riley never stood a chance against boredom and energy. He was starving for activity, and took his "meals" wherever he could find them…usually in an inappropriate way involving destruction and mayhem.
All work and no play…we all know how this ends.
Piloting, Activity and Work. That's the PAW Method. It's a tripod – remove one of those three things and everything topples over. It's not a smorgasbord or a buffet where you pick which items you want. Yes, getting your dog's energy levels under control can feel like an insurmountable obstacle, especially if your dog is young. But utilize some of (all of!) these tricks, and you'll find that good dog buried deep, deep down inside of your beloved canine.

I'm looking forward to meeting your little guy, Jenni!
My name is Jenni and I live close to you in the Edgewater portion of West Cleveland. I have a Siberian Husky who is only 3 and a half months old. He needs training so badly. I live in a 4th floor apartment and am having a hard time potty training he usually scratches at the door when he has to poop, but he pees everywhere and I take him out all the time. He chews and bites everything including me and my family, not in an aggressive manor, but he thinks he's playing, or he'll chew something he's not supposed to just to get my attention. But the Seperation Anxiety is the worst, he howls and barks the whole time i'm gone, I know because my neighbor tells me. He's very high energy so I want to take him on log walks, to the park, and eventually be able to jog with me. But he gets so distracted by everything, and the worst is he eats everything on the ground, I am constantly having to pull nasty things out of his mouth. I don't know what kind of training he needs, but please help.
I look forward to hearing from you, Thank you!

I was just reading about John Isner (6'10"), Juan Martin del Potro (6'6″), Milos Raonic (6'5″) and Ivo Karlovic (6'10"). Top ranked tennis players, they represent an increasingly tall person's sport. At this year's US Tennis Open, 9 of the 32 top seeded male players are 6'5″ or taller.
Average size has been changing in sports. While in 1939, an average forward on the University of Wisconsin's basketball team was 6'1″, in 1999, he was 7 inches taller. A century ago, world record 100 meter runners averaged close to 6 feet but the Olympic gold medal sprinter Usain Bolt is 6'5″. Similarly, during 1900 or so, champion 100 meter swimmers were much shorter–by 4.5 inches–than Michael Phelps who is 6'4″. One reason for bigger athletes is the improved nutrition that comes from economic growth.
Based on military records, a typical US male was 67 inches during the mid-1800s, close to 70 inches in 1955, and since then, stayed there. During the end of the 18th century, John Adams at 5'7″ was average height. Can you imagine how impressive George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, both approximately 6'2″, must have been?
Reading the following table, this might be helpful: 1 centimeter=.4 inches. So 175 centimeters would be 70 inches.
From: Fogel and Grotte, AN OVERVIEW OF THE CHANGING BODY: HEALTH, NUTRITION, AND HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN THE WESTERN WORLD SINCE 1700
Called anthropometric history, the science of the changing human body has provided economists with data that they have related to human capital. In The Changing Body, researchers have hypothesized that "The nutritional status of a generation–shown by the size and shape of their bodies–determines how long that generation will live and how much work its members will be able to do." From there, we might conclude that nutrition affects productivity which elevates GDP and increases our standard living.
Sources and resources: Laden with a massive amount of data and written by a group of scholars that includes Nobel Laureate Robert Fogel, The Changing Body is an impressive compilation of research as is his working paper on the same topic. It perfectly complements articles in The New Yorker, the Daily Mail and the NY Times.
