Kumar Sangakkara became the first Sri Lankan player and the fifth player to score 12,000 runs in Tests on Saturday. Sangakkara reached the milestone when he knocked Trent Boult square on the off side for two runs in Sri Lanka's first innings of the second Test against New Zealand in Wellington.
Sangakkara started the two-Test series on 11,988 runs and after scoring six and one in the first Test in Christchurch, he was determined to get the final five in Wellington.
Since launching his Test career in 2000, Sangakkara has made an impressive average of over 58.00, including 37 centuries in 130 Tests. His highest score was 319 against Bangladesh. He is now number four on the all-time scoring list, although his average is higher even than Indian great Sachin Tendulkar, who tops the ranking with 15,921 runs in 200 Tests at 53.78.
Australian Ricky Ponting (13,378 at 51.85), Jacques Kallis from South Africa (13,289 at 55.37) and India's Rahul Dravid (13,288 at 52.31) round out the top five. Last month, Sangakkara became only the fourth batsman to surpass the 13,000-run mark in one-day internationals, achieving the feat in his 386th match.
The ODI list is also headed by Tendulkar, who made 18,426 runs in 463 matches, ahead of Ponting with 13,704 runs from 375 ODIs and Sanath Jayasuriya of Sri Lanka, who has 13,430 runs in 445 games.


There are a lot of people out there who don't "get" the Surface Pro. This isn't their fault, or their problem, it's up to Microsoft to help them understand the product. So far the team from Redmond hasn't delivered on that. One of the biggest points that Microsoft should be focusing on, in my opinion, is the Pro's absolutely stellar handwriting recognition driven by the combination of Windows 8 and the Wacom stylus.
We've reached a strange point, technologically, with input mechanisms. Every part of the ecosystem desperately wants to kill off the physical keyboard, but no one has really figured out what to replace it with. Most on-screen keyboards are relatively terrible, but they offer more screen real estate for other activities so we deal with them in the hopes that it will get better. Voice-to-text has made massive leaps in the last few years, but no one wants to be "that guy" walking around in public talking to their phone or computer. Microsoft made some improvements on this front with Windows Phone 8, but none of them made their way to Windows 8.
You can use the on-screen keyboard, which either requires you to type while the tablet is awkwardly cradled in your lap or split into two smaller keyboards that are usable if you have giant hands with tiny thumbs.
You can use a fun-looking touch cover, which is only mildly less terrible than the on-screen keyboard.
You can use a tactile touch cover, if you're a fan of a detachable keyboard that would have been considered embarrassing on a $300 netbook five years ago.
What many people don't know is that there's another option, and it is by far the best in the industry for what it is designed to accomplish.
Handwriting recognition is not at all a new concept. In fact, when most people hear "handwriting recognition" they think about Graffiti from the old Palm days, some awful hybrid between writing actual words and tricking the computer into making them show up on the computer. Handwriting recognition practically disappeared from the world for a while, as we decided the stylus was a dirty thing that should be forgotten forever (resistive touch displays were partially to blame for this).
When you think about a stylus in current generation hardware, it's usually a clumsy eraser tip style, which is horrible for just about everything. Microsoft's decision to include a stylus with the Surface Pro comes off mostly as a tool for artists, or as a alternative form of navigation. If you are feeling brave enough to try writing with it, however, you'll be pleasantly surprised.
Just like the regular virtual keyboard, you can use handwriting recognition anywhere in the OS. You write in the black box, and than insert the translation into a text field. You can write URLs, email addresses, even passwords with surprising accuracy. Whether you're a far of print or cursive, you'll find that even horrible penmanship is recognized. If a mistake is made, it's really easy to fix. You tap on the are you need to correct, and an exploded view of the word allows you to go in and make whatever changes you need. The tutorial for the different editing gestures is easily the best laid out tutorial for the entirely of Windows 8, and really makes it so you can quickly use this tool as your default writing mechanism when curled up on the couch.
Handwriting is still not faster than typing, but it's a comfortable alternative to input on the Surface Pro. This input mechanism is available on any Windows 8 install, but the combination of the stylus and the screen on the Surface Pro makes the experience really great. It's this kind of thing that should be passed on to the rest of the Windows 8 ecosystem, encouraging an input mechanism that requires no learning and no effort, just a pen and a screen.


So the silly season is well and truly upon us. So, if you are looking for some silly bike related gifts to give, here are some ideas.
How about a coffee cup holder for your bike?
This coffee cup holder mounts onto your bike so you can safely ride with two hands on your handlebars AND have your morning coffee.
Something stronger more your style? Try this wine bottle holder for your top tube. Available from Cyclestyle.
Not your style? How about a coffee table made from bike bits?
Really, really enjoy sitting in a saddle? Here's a table and chairs that will suit your needs.
Sick of ugly race type bento boxes? Here's a pretty little bento box for your keys and phone.
There's some ideas anyhow. The problem with writing a post on this, is that I ended up finding all these cool things that I now want to buy!

As party season fast approaches, those in search of a punchy pout need look no further than Canary Wharf as it launches a pop-up dedicated to the timeless red lip later this month.
For a limited time, the new and exclusive red lip concept will feature a carefully curated edit of the full spectrum of the fiery hue drawn from the world's very best beauty houses all in one space. Brands include Bobbi Brown, Chanel, Dior, Estée Lauder and MAC, as well as top picks from Space NK like Chantecaille, Laura Mercier, Lipstick Queen and many more. This will be the first time shoppers at Canary Wharf will have unprecedented access to red lipsticks from the industry's best in what is a glamorous and unique one-stop-shop. The pop-up will be open for three days only as part of the Winter Fashion Weekend.
Finding the winning formula will be made easy with personal, one-to-one 'lip service' consultations from make-up artists, including a firm fixture of the celebrity glam squad – Caroline Barnes.
Caroline, who has painted the faces of actresses Rebecca Ferguson and Emma Watson, as well as superstar Kylie Minogue, will make a special appearance on Saturday 1 December between 11am and 3pm to help those in their quest for the right swipe of scarlet.
For beauty junkies, the pop-up provides a unique opportunity to experiment with the very latest releases from the likes of Bobbi Brown, Chanel and Dior or fall back in love with the beauty bestseller that is MAC's Ruby Woo.
Caroline Barnes, celebrity make-up artist says: "I'm thrilled to be working with Canary Wharf in championing this classic look.

I'm looking forward to helping shoppers in their quest for the ideal red – it's the perfect pairing for those party season looks which visitors will see in the fashion shows across the weekend."

Shoppers needn't let their lips do all the talking. Free fashion shows will provide an endless dose of inspiration for festive season looks. Taking place at various times across the three days, the runways at Canada Place and Jubilee Place will offer an invaluable insight into winter's beloved fabrics, displaying everything from full on razzle dazzle to the more casual realms of slouchy sophistication.
Fashion fans can look on as sumptuous silk gets a reboot with coquettish cuts and slips with an urban edge; meanwhile, satin, the luxe fabric which has flooded social feeds since the beginning of the year, takes on a new lease of life with kimono-style dresses and blouses in colour-popping hues.
The braver can see how to take a more is more approach to party dressing as models shimmer in this season's take on sparkle and glitter. After all, nothing screams glamour quite like heady embellishment.

Throughout Canary Wharf


The GMI is still 6, but only 23-31% of the stocks in the Nasdaq 100, S&P 500 and Dow 30 indexes advanced on Thursday. This is the 13th week that the QQQQ has closed above its 10 week average, and the 59th day of the rise.
The GMI held at 6 and 60-65% of the stocks in the Nasdaq 100, S&P 500 and Dow 30 indexes advanced on Wednesday. There were 269 new highs in my universe of 4,000 stocks. Only 53% of the IBD 100 stock list from 10/16 rose and only 3 hit new highs (LVS, CELG and ICLR). Wednesday was the 58th day of the current up-trend in the QQQQ. The QLD ETF that tries to achieve double the returns of the QQQQ rose 1.35% Wednesday, compared with a rise of .47% for the QQQQ. Since August 16, the QQQQ has risen 11.5% while the QLD has risen 22.7%. Only 12 of the Nasdaq 100 stocks (and 26 of the S&P 500 stocks) rose more than the QLD. With these odds it makes little sense to me to trade individual stocks? Clearly, the QLD is the way to go as long as one is in an up-trend.
The GMI remains at 6. Tuesday was the 57th day of the QQQQ up-trend. There were 315 new highs in my universe of 4,000 stocks. 74% of the Nasdaq 100 stocks rose, along with 56% of the S&P 500 and 63% of the Dow 30 stocks. 62% of the IBD 100 stocks from 10/16 rose.
The GMI is back to 6, with 89-94% of the stocks in the Nasdaq 100, S&P 500 and Dow 30 indexes advancing on Monday. There were 227 new highs in my universe of 4,000 stocks. Monday was the 56th day in the QQQQ up-trend.
The GMI rose to 5, as 39% of the Nasdaq 100 stocks advanced on Friday along with 33% of the S&P 500 and 20% of the Dow 30 stocks. There were 104 new yearly highs in my universe of 4,000 stocks. However, only 49% of the Nasdaq 100 stocks closed above their 30 day averages, down from a high of 88% on October 16. The Daily QQQQ index is very close to turning negative. The next few days will tell the story. Last week I lightened up on my weaker stocks and was stopped out of several. It pays to be defensive when the indexes decline so much. However, the QQQQ up-trend completed its 55th day and the QQQQ has closed above its 10 week average for 12 straight weeks. During this time the QQQQ has advanced 8.7% and 69 of the Nasdaq 100 stocks have advanced, 41 of them are up 10% or more. In the same period, 74% of the S&P 500 stocks advanced, 30% rose more than 10%. So, the time since August 16 has been good to those of us who went long.
On Friday, the IBD 100 type stocks outperformed the Nasdaq 100 tech stocks. 58-69% of the stocks in four recent IBD 100 lists advanced on Friday, compared with only 39% of the Nasdaq 100 tech stocks. None of these lists has many new highs, however. The statistics in this table suggest that most stocks closed on Friday below their prices when the IBD 100 lists were published. It will be interesting to see whether Friday's relatively stronger performance suggests that traders will be buying the stronger growth stocks in the next few weeks…..

Just as a check for the substitutions I was observing, I reversed R1.fastq and R2.fastq being the paired end reads from as sequencing experiment. Let's say at 'chr1 100' that I observe and 'A -> G' substitution. My thought here was that if I switch the paired end files so that R1.fastq becomes R2.fastq and then align and call variants, that my base substitution would now be the complimentary 'T -> C' change (using bwa mem to align and freebayes to call vars). Yet when I do this, I still get and 'A->G' change.
Am I observing no change in the substitution because of the processing by freebayes and bwa mem? Do they align to either strand and then always report the substitution on the positive strand?
Aligners will reverse complement one read from a pair when they are being aligned automatically (since the reference is only a single strand). Since most genome viewers show data with respect to "top" strand you may be observing this.
If you just changed the names of the files without changing any of the contents, I think you should get the same alignments in both cases. For each pair of reads, one read will align to one of the strands, it doesn't matter which, and the other read will align to the opposite strand.

John Lennon on the Moment He Knew the Beatles 'Hit It Big' - 31 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
When Beatles fans in America think of "Beatlemania" and the 1964 British Invasion, most think of "I Want to Hold Your Hand" as the signature song of that moment. They have good reason to do so: That track represented the band's first No. 1 hit on this side of the Atlantic.
However, the Fab Four had notched several No. 1 hits in the UK by February of '64. "Please Please Me," the band's first huge success on the charts, went all the way to No. 2 in early '63. That April, "From Me to You" became the first chart-topping single on the Beatles' resume.
In July , The Beatles were the dominant force in British pop and went to EMI studios on Abbey Road to record their next single. Prior to the actual recording session, the band took some publicity photos outside.
After they'd gone in to work on the recording, they experienced the type of scene later found in A Hard Day's Night. In fact, that day, just as they were about to record "She Loves You," screaming fans broke into the building, with one girl actually making it into their studio.

Ringo Starr Joked That a Young Drummer Will 'Never Get Anywhere' Listening to Him 31 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
Ringo Starr is one of history's best-known drummers, performing original songs like "Octopus's Garden." In one press conference, a teenager said he started playing the instrument because of this Beatles member. Of course, Starr had a hilarious response to the comment.
Ringo Starr was the last addition to the "Fab Four," appearing alongside George Harrison, Paul McCartney, and John Lennon. He performed songs like "I Want To Hold Your Hand," "Love Me Do," and "A Hard Day's Night."
He was even the focus of the music comedy film, Help. The drummer appeared in the Beatles until they officially disbanded in 1970. Even afterward, Ringo Starr continued to play drums for other groups and as a solo artist.
"I'll say it again: I love being in a band," Starr said during an NPR interview. "I love playing with other human beings. I've never practiced drums unless there was another human being in the room. If you could play, I'd play with you all night. But if I'm just playing by myself, it gets boring pretty quick."

David Crosby Said He Was Closer With George Harrison Than Any Other Beatle 31 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
David Crosby wasn't fully onboard with one of George Harrison's most important relationships. David Crosby said he was close friends with George Harrison. Afterward, David Crosby wrote a song about George Harrison.
David Crosby didn't get along with many people, but he found a friend in George Harrison. Though Crosby didn't agree with everything Harrison did — he even wrote a song about this — he valued his relationship with him. Crosby said that of all of The Beatles, Harrison was his favorite.
Crosby and Harrison got along, and the former Byrds artist was slightly concerned about a significant relationship in his life. When Harrison met Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and had his spiritual awakening, Crosby was happy for him, but, not being religious himself, he wasn't wholeheartedly accepting of the relationship.

John Lennon and Paul McCartney Used Unreleased Parts From Other Beatles Songs to ... 31 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
The Beatles have plenty of hidden gems that were never released to the public. Some of the unreleased recordings include fragments of other songs that were edited out. While writing "The End," John Lennon and Paul McCartney combined two Beatles songs to create a song that ended the band on a high note.
While "The End" isn't the final song on Abbey Road, it fittingly was the final song recorded collectively by the four members of The Beatles. It was written by Paul McCartney but is credited to the Lennon-McCartney duo. Initially, the song was meant to end Abbey Road, but the final song was later changed to "Her Majesty."
Each member had a solo in "The End." McCartney, Lennon, and George Harrison performed three two-bar guitar solos, while Ringo Starr performed a drum solo, despite normally disliking drum solos. In The Beatles Anthology, Starr recalled being against the idea but was inevitably convinced by the other members.

Get Back: The Beatles' Rooftop Performance 31 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
It took 53 years, but now, at last, The Beatles' final public performance can be heard – with all the songs complete and uninterrupted. True, a split-screen sequence of the remarkable event on January 30, 1969, was the climax of Peter Jackson's epic Get Back trilogy. But the film's fascinating cutaways to the drama unfolding at ground level meant the music on the roof was not always in the foreground. Finally, a new mix by Giles Martin and Sam Okell presents virtually every second from the two reels of tape containing the rooftop session. Listening to this historic audio is a thrilling experience. Although no one knew at the time, this was The Beatles' last gig. But it's a perfect live finale – original, humorous and unprecedented: elements that are forever associated with The Beatles.

Paul McCartney Revealed The Beatles Once Performed Under 'Showbiz Names,' 'I Became 30 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
In an era when rockstars who had exciting and intimidating names began to emerge, The Beatles kept their real names, except Ringo Starr. Before Starr joined the band, The Beatles temporarily went under different names, with Paul McCartney, John Lennon, and George Harrison creating their own "showbiz names."Ringo Starr joined The Beatles in 1962, becoming the band's permanent drummer. Starr, born Richard Starkey, was the only band member who used a stage name. The nickname came from the drummer wearing many rings, and it began to stick. In a 1992 interview with Club Sandwich, McCartney said Ringo had previously established himself with the name at Butlin's Holiday Camp, where several other stars started out. "Ringo was the only one who stayed with a stage name, Ringo Starr because he'd been to Butlin's holiday camp," McCartney explained. "This was the big difference between Ringo and us – it actually made a difference in a man's life, in those days, whether or not you'd been to Butlin's. And this was actually a true claim to fame: having done a complete season at Butlin's, he was the consummate pro."
The Beatles' Rooftop Concert: Behind The Group's Final Public Performance 30 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
Recorded as the B-side of "Get Back" on January 28, 1969, "Don't Let Me Down" was first heard outside of the recording studio two days later, on January 30, when The Beatles played it a rooftop concert at Apple Studio in Savile Row, London. Written by John Lennon as an expression of his love for Yoko Ono, the song is heartfelt and passionate. As John told Rolling Stone magazine in 1970, "When it gets down to it, when you're drowning, you don't say, 'I would be incredibly pleased if someone would have the foresight to notice me drowning and come and help me,' you just scream."
Joining The Beatles at Apple Studios for both sides of the single was keyboard player Billy Preston, who gives the track such a beautiful, gentle feel, contrasting brilliantly with the intensity of John's lead vocal. Billy was credited on the Apple single and it charted in America, but airplay of "Get Back" predominated and propelled the A-side to No.1 on the charts for five weeks. By comparison, "Don't Let Me Down" got much less exposure. It's another of those B-side gems that, with the passing of time, people have come to appreciate more.

Why Paul McCartney Once Called Himself the 'Instigator' of The Beatles 29 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
Many bands are led by iconic lead singers, such as Freddie Mercury for Queen or Mick Jagger for The Rolling Stones. However, The Beatles were unique because they didn't have an official leader. While John Lennon and Paul McCartney were responsible for most of The Beatles' songs, George Harrison and Ringo Starr still made significant contributions. However, McCartney believed he was the "instigator" of The Beatles.
In an interview with The New York Times, McCartney reflected on the passing of George Harrison and the memories he had with the "Somebody" singer. One memory shared was when he hitchhiked with Harrison before The Beatles formed. He later got Lennon to join in during his "hitchhiking burst."
"I often think of George because he was my little buddy," McCartney said. "I was thinking the other day of my hitchhiking bursts. This was before the Beatles. I suddenly was keen on hitchhiking, so I sold this idea to George and then John."
Ringo Starr's Songwriting Process Was So Complex, It's a Miracle He Wrote Any Beatles Songs 29 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
The Beatles didn't need Ringo Starr to be a songwriter. Paul McCartney and John Lennon took up those duties early in the band's career. George Harrison grew his writing skills. Not being relied upon for songs lessened the pressure on the drummer, which Ringo said was a positive of being the fourth Beatle. Still, he attempted to write songs. When you go inside Ringo's clunky songwriting process, it's a miracle he ever got any tracks on Beatles albums.
The Beatles needed Ringo to be their drummer to become the Fab Four. His steady timekeeping skills were critical to the band. Ringo's songwriting? Not so much.
When they weren't covering songs, John and Paul teamed up to handle a lot of the early songwriting duties for the band. The duo retained that dynamic for much of The Beatles' career.

Ringo Starr's Weirdest Drumming With The Beatles Came During a Secret Jam Session .. 29 January, 2023 - 0 Comments
Ringo Starr songs rarely made the cut on Beatles albums (he wrote two Fab Four tunes). His playing almost never received the credit it deserved, either. Ringo's drumming — subtle and situated perfectly in the song — often made him the most overlooked member of The Beatles, and yet there were very few places in the world where nobody knew Ringo. Though often overlooked for his playing, Ringo's weirdest drumming happened in the studio when George Harrison briefly quit the band.
Former drummer Pete Best lost interest in The Beatles when they went heavily psychedelic on 1967's Magical Mystery Tour. Maybe he wasn't listening to the Fab Four a year earlier.
Revolver was a watershed moment for the band as it moved away from the saccharine pop of their early days. The non-album B-side "Rain" was a big step into the Fab Four's psychedelic period.

New 2020 Aston Martin DBX undergoing winter testing
Aston Martin have released a second batch of images, showing its upcoming performance SUV taking on its arctic test programme
The new Aston Martin DBX is being readied for its release. Currently, it's undergoing a rigorous testing programme, with Aston Martin releasing another batch of official "spy shots" as evidence. Due to reach the UK market by 2020, the DBX will join an ever-growing range of premium performance SUVs, dominated by the Bentley Bentayga and Lamborghini Urus.
Aston Martin's first SUV was previewed by the DBX Concept from the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, but these latest images confirm that the production model will be very different in appearance from the show car. The Concept was a statement of intent, hence its three-door coupe shape, but the DBX will be a five-door SUV.
• Best 4x4s and SUVs on sale
Little has changed in the four months since we last saw the DBX. This latest mule wears the same camouflage and sports the same body shell as the previous one. It retains the pronounced rear haunches and steeply-raked rear window as the previous test car, both of which nod towards Aston Martin's grand tourer line-up.
Power could well be provided by Aston Martin's latest twin-turbocharged 'hot-vee' V8 from the Vantage and DB11 V8, as hinted by the previous mule's DVLA records. A hybrid DBX will inevitably emerge at some stage, too, falling in line with Aston Martin's plans to electrify its entire line-up, with hybrid or pure-electric variants of every model planned by 2025.
The DBX isn't just important because of the potential revenue it could generate for Aston Martin, though. It will also be the first car to be built at the firm's brand new, 60,000 square-metre, £250 million factory in St Athan, Wales.
Speaking to Auto Express at the St Athan facility, Aston vehicle line director for large cars, Andy Haslam told us a little more about the upcoming DBX. He described the model as "clearly a full-size SUV", that will have a lightweight, bonded aluminium body structure with its own unique suspension system and platform.
Haslam also set out Aston's plans for the DBX's testing programme. The current prototype is an early build model, codenamed 'M1.' Halfway through this year, a second prototype build will enter production at St Athan, followed by a presentation of the finished car by the end of the year.
We still haven't seen the DBX's interior, either. For now, the usual prototype rules apply, with the M1 mule featuring a spartan cabin packed with plenty of parts-bin Mercedes switchgear. When the final car arrives, the dash is likely to take on a different look from other Aston products, given the segment the vehicle will belong to and the platform it will use.
As for a price, the DBX will line up with other upper-crust SUVs such as the Bentley Bentayga and Lamborghini Urus. We anticipate a starting figure of around £140,000 when it goes on sale in 2020.

Chinese recognition of German contribution
Gustav Detring (1842-1913) and Constantin von Hanneken (1854-1925) were two of the most influential Germans living and working in China in the late 19th century.
ATG Reporter
A Second Class First Grade Order of the Double Dragon – a gold, silver, coral and enamel neck badge and breast star of a type issued from 1894-1901. It was issued either to Gustav Detring (1842-1913) or Constantin von Hanneken (1854-1925) and sold for £44,000 at Morton & Eden.
As the negotiator of treaties and trade agreements on behalf of the Chinese government, Detring rose to become the highest-ranking Westerner in China (conferred Dingdaihauling 'Rank One' status by the Dowager Empress Cixi in 1896). In Tianjin – the city he made his home – he founded Tianjin University, co-published the Chinese Times, constructed the Tianjin racecourse, paved the roads of the foreign settlement and was instrumental in the construction of the City Hall.
Von Hanneken was Detring's son-in-law, hired first as one of his military advisers and later placed in charge of modernising the Chinese army. During the Sino-Japanese War, in November 1894, the Guangxu emperor made him commander-in-chief, in the hope that a Western general could defeat the Japanese army.
One of the two men had been the recipient of this Second Class First Grade Order of the Double Dragon – a gold, silver, coral and enamel neck badge and breast star of a type issued from 1894-1901. As both men were known to have received the award, the family, and London auction house Morton & Eden (20% buyer's premium), were unsure as to whom it had been given. It sold at £44,000 (estimate £15,000-20,000) on December 5.

September 30, 2019 Hoag Levins Photo feature
To move the 13-ton, solid-stone, half-man, half-lion sculpture of Pharaoh Ramses II across the Penn Museum complex and up two stories, engineers built a runway stretching through the building complex and across a large courtyard. The steel and wood plank path was capable of supporting 500 pounds per square inch of pressure.
Although the latest story of the 13-ton Penn Museum Sphinx begins with its move across the museum complex at a cost of $850,000, the real story of this artifact began 30 centuries earlier in the Nile Delta city of Memphis. One of ancient Egypt's most holy places, Memphis was a sprawl of temples, massive monuments and grand tombs, most of which celebrated the era's ruler, Pharaoh Ramses II. (See the sphinx now in its new location)
High-tech hover board-like air dollies were key to the sphinx moving project, lifting the huge weight but also increasing the possibility of it "floating" sideways on a runway that had only inches to spare. Workmen moved forward very slowly.
The moving process took three days and involved dozens of engineers and technicians. The steel and plank runway connected large holes ripped in the walls to enable the Sphinx to travel out of one building and into another.
Memphis' most important religious structure was the temple complex dedicated to the god Ptah, and small wonder. Ramses, a military conquerer and prolific builder, erected more temples, cities and massive stone monuments to himself than any other pharaoh in Egyptian history — and Ptah was the god of craftsmen and architects — the people who accomplished these works.
Red granite from Aswan
Just inside the north gate of the walled Ptah complex, a sphinx sat as a benevolent guardian and symbol of the Pharaoh's power. Its head was a carved likeness of Ramses, and its 13-ton leonine body was sculpted from a huge block of red granite that came from the same Aswan quarry as the stones of the pyramids.
But for all its glory in the earlier centuries of Egyptian history, Memphis had a fatal geographic flaw. It was located on the flood plain of a river that overran its banks annually. Each century, more silt was deposited on top of the existing ground. Over 3,000 years, more than 15 feet of silt and sand swallowed up Memphis and the city was eventually abandoned. Much of its above-ground stonework was carted away for constructions elsewhere; by the turn of the 20th century, what had once been one of the ancient world's richest and most powerful cities was a swampy backwater littered with smashed stone rubble, some of which suggested where the wall of the once-great Ptah temple had been.
The Penn move began here, where the Sphinx sat undisturbed for 96 years as the museum's premiere attraction. Construction on the Sphinx's new location — just inside the main museum's entrance — was completed on November 16, 2019.
(Penn Museum photo) In 1926, the Sphinx was set in place, and then had a new section of museum built around it based on the assumption it would never move again.
In 1912, an archaeological expedition team partially funded by Penn was digging near the remains of the north wall and found the buried Ramses II Sphinx. At some point in earlier centuries, the Sphinx had sunk into silt and sand up to its shoulders and remained that way as centuries more of wind-driven sand eroded its face.
The massive statue was shipped by freighter to the Philadelphia waterfront in 1913, traveling from there to the museum on a massive ox cart pulled by horses. In 1926 it was put into final position and the museum's Lower Egyptian Gallery was then constructed around it.
Both survived the ages
It turns out both the Sphinx and its creator are still with us 3,000 years later. The mummy of Pharaoh Ramses II was discovered in 1881, unwrapped and now on display in the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities in Cairo. You can still look directly into the incredibly well-preserved face of the man considered Egypt's greatest, most powerful leader as well as the man who commissioned the Sphinx in his own likeness that is now Penn museum's most cherished artifact.

The United States is often considered a cultural melting pot where singles can find common ground and create new family traditions together.

Sometimes, though, it's nice to be around people who have similar beliefs and values and who can relate to the experiences you've been through and lifestyle you live. In terms of dating, these commonalities can be of the utmost importance. For Native American singles looking for a date or a relationship, there are nine Native American dating sites that we consider to be at the top of the heap.

The study surveyed 420 physicians randomly identified through the American Medical Association's Masterfile list. Of those physicians surveyed, 72 percent were aware of their state's prescription drug monitoring program, and 53 percent reported that they had used the programs.
Prescription Drug Abuse
Chronic pain is one of the most common reasons for seeking medical attention in the United States, and such pain is frequently treated with prescription opioids.

Křesťanská etika popisuje požadavky, podle nichž se má řídit křesťan. Zásadám křesťanské etiky se věnuje morální teologie.

Základem křesťanské etiky jsou dvě největší přikázání, které přebírá Ježíš Kristus z židovství a které zní:
 "Slyš, Izraeli, Hospodin je náš Bůh, Hospodin jediný. Budeš milovat Hospodina, svého Boha, celým svým srdcem a celou svou duší a celou svou silou." (Dt 6,4-5)
 "Budeš milovat svého bližního jako sebe samého." (Lv 19,18)

Novozákonní etiku odlišuje od ostatních etik její základ: křesťanské etické jednání nevede k ospravedlnění v Ježíši Kristu (resp. Bohu), nýbrž z něho vychází:
Vybízím vás, bratří, pro Boží milosrdenství, abyste sami sebe přinášeli jako živou, svatou, Bohu milou oběť; to ať je vaše pravá bohoslužba. A nepřizpůsobujte se tomuto věku, nýbrž proměňujte se obnovou své mysli, abyste mohli rozpoznat, co je vůle Boží, co je dobré, Bohu milé a dokonalé. (Řím 12,1)

Takto popisuje Benedikt XVI. (tehdy ještě kardinál) samotnou víru jako etické jednání:
"Křesťanská víra znamená svěřit se životnímu smyslu, který nese mne i celý svět, přijmout jej za pevný základ, na kterém mohu pevně stát. Můžeme to vyjádřit i jinak: Křesťansky věřit znamená přijímat svoji existenci jako odpověď na slovo jako logos, který nese a drží vše. Znamená to říci své ano k tomu, že smysl života a věcí je již daný a my jej jen přijímáme a svěřujeme se mu. " (Josef Ratzinger: Úvod do křesťanství, str. 31. Petrov, Brno 1991. )

Pak tedy naslouchání Slovu, tj. Kristu, je jedním ze základních požadavků křesťanské víry a etiky: přijmout duchovní poselství s přísným mravním rozměrem (tj. křesťanskou zvěst pocházející od Boha, kterou Ježíš Kristus předal svým apoštolům, aby ji šířili dále) a žít z něho v Duchu svatém. Toto poselství, zaznamenané v Bibli, zdůrazňuje prostřednictvím několika kodifikovaných pravidel (např. v Desateru) potřebu řídit se dle takové morálky.

Křesťanská etika vyžaduje, aby věřící žil v míru s ostatními lidmi, soucítil s trpícími, jelikož pro křesťany je jejich společenství založeno na rovnosti před Bohem. Od věřících, kteří z lásky k Bohu chtějí plnit jeho vůli, se očekávají dobré skutky zde na zemi. Přesto nikdo nedosáhne dokonalosti a musí najít odpuštění a věčnou spásu skrze víru v Ježíše Krista.
