What My Fear of Flying Taught Me About Justice and God
BY BRENNA DAVIS | February 20, 2020
As much as I don't like to admit it, fear is a big part of my life. As I write this, I am taxiing on an airplane for takeoff—and flying is one of my biggest fears of all. I don't know how fear snuck up on me like this. I remember a time not so long ago when danger did not cross my mind. Flying internationally, no big deal. Writing something for a large group of people to read, not a problem. Biking though my neighborhood alone at night, of course. But now in my early 30s, I find myself fearing so much more.
View from my seat as we hurtle through the air and the (not so sweet but rather nerve-shatteringly bumpy) clouds at hyperspeed without so much as a brake pedal or steering wheel at my disposal.
Maybe it's a natural consequence of growing older while also seeing family and loved ones do the same. The fragility of life takes on a new meaning as each moment, day, month, and year passes.
Maybe it's a natural consequence of being acutely aware of our environmental situation. As a young person with no children, I fear deeply for future generations, even if they are not filled with my own personal descendants. I fear for everyone who is still alive in 20 or 30 years who will have to deal with the consequences of our actions and unwillingness to face the reality of the information we have today. I fear for anyone at this moment who is suffering from the consequences of injustices present in our world, ecological or otherwise.
I'm working on environmental issues. I'm flying to do work on environmental issues, which is, by far, the least fuel-efficient mode of transportation. I'm trying to be part of the solution while also being a part of the problem. I fear that the work I do will not make a meaningful enough impact to justify the emissions I'm using to do it.
"I fear that the work I do will not make a meaningful enough impact to justify the emissions I'm using to do it."
And it's this fear that drives me and simultaneously paralyzes me in my work and personal life. The environment, sustainability, and conservation are the lenses through which I see the world. There is a beauty in that, but there is also a burden and a challenge. I don't want to be so afraid.
We're going through the clouds now, and the turbulence has begun (Side note: does anyone dislike clouds as much as me when you're in a plane? They're so beautiful from the ground, but when you're in them it's MUCH less enjoyable). My fear in this moment comes from thoughts of future airplane catastrophe. My fear in this moment comes from thoughts of future environmental catastrophe. I am not driving this plane or the environmental policy of the United States, and I don't like the feeling that I'm not in control.
I don't have a solution to this fear, but I know it's not a place I want to live. I find much more energy and creativity coming from a place of love. Recently I had an experience on a silent retreat that gave me a sense of release and peace, and that's what I want to share in case you're fearful too.
"I don't have a solution to this fear, but I know it's not a place I want to live. I find much more energy and creativity coming from a place of love."
There is a phrase from the Bible (I'll look up the exact citation later when we've landed and it's safe to turn on WiFi—I take my duty to help the plane arrive safely quite seriously) that uses the phrase "in the fullness of time" (Note: It's Ephesians 1:10). In my prayer, that phrase gave me such a deep heart-felt sense of consolation.
The fullness of time, a time when God will gather up all things in heaven and on earth and no one will be left out. The time when justice will reign on earth. This phrase gives me a sense that there is a richness to eternity that I cannot fully understand now because I'm in such a small (yet important) piece of it.
This phrase made me think of 9th-grade theology class when we read Mere Christianity (I will have to check this citation when we land as well) and C.S. Lewis spoke about time as a mountain range. I can only see the small piece of the mountain because I'm on it, but God, the force that sustains everything, can see the entire mountain range at once. That doesn't mean I or we won't collectively fall off of a cliff, but I oddly find comfort in the idea that in the fullness of time it will all be ok. (Future Brenna here. It looks like he actually used the image of an author who takes breaks in writing to describe time, but I still wanted to share the mountain image from my memory because it's still meaningful to me).
James Finley, a mystic of our day, used this story on a retreat I attended when a participant asked about how to be contemplative in the midst of suffering. I'm heavily paraphrasing, but when you're 30,000 feet in the air, it's allowed. He asked us to imagine a mother holding and trying to comfort a crying baby. The mother says to the baby, "It's ok… everything is going to be alright." In one sense, this is not true at all. The baby will most likely grow up, experience the suffering and injustice of the world, and die. But in another sense, the reality underlying all life is that everything is ultimately going to be ok. The mystics and gospel tell us this again and again.
"All shall be well." – Julian of Norwich
"Let nothing disturb you." – St. Teresa of Avila
"Do not be afraid." – Jesus (If I remember correctly, this is the phrase Jesus says most frequently in the New Testament).
We are still in the clouds, and I cannot see anything. I must trust.
The fullness of time is not yet fully here, but we can see it in small glimpses if we slow down enough. Or sometimes they even sneak up on us. The way the early morning or afternoon light filters through the trees. The laughter of a child. Squirrels being squirrels. Staring at the ground from 30,000 feet. They're all miracles. Merton refers to this as the cosmic dance. Oddly there is something so special about each of these moments that on the deepest level of my being lets me know that everything will ultimately be ok even while I know that everything is not ok right now.
Staring at the ground from 30,000 feet is a miracle and can be a glimpse of the fullness of time if we allow it.
Experiencing the fullness of time does not let us off the hook in taking concrete action for environmental justice or any other justice issue in the present. If nothing else, it compels us to go deeper. If we know that there is goodness underlying each moment, we should be stirred ever more deeply to transform our world into one in which each person not only has their basic needs met, but also can flourish and have the space and safety to delight in the fullness themselves. (That's not to imply that the fullness of time doesn't exist in places where people experience suffering and injustice. Many stories of goodness and love have been shared from people caught in the midst of war, at the U.S.- Mexico border, and so on throughout history. God's fullness is deeply present in these places and can be experienced by anyone open to it).
"Experiencing the fullness of time does not let us off the hook in taking concrete action for environmental justice or any other justice issue in the present. If nothing else, it compels us to go deeper."
It does, however, take some of the pressure off, not the urgency to act, but the pressure and fear that tempt me to give up or to freeze. St. Ignatius might call this "the enemy of our human nature" or "the evil spirit." I've always had issues with these phrases because they bring to mind images of a small devil, a Screwtape type figure, but in this context, it makes sense to me—the fear that limits me or tempts me from doing my piece of work in the world.
Attempting to see the world as God does, through the fullness of time, helps me to remember why I most deeply care about these issues. People are good, creation is good, and none of us did anything to make ourselves exist so we are called to help each other live as fully and fruitfully as we can in this life.
"We are all just walking each other home." That's Rumi, I think… (Brenna from the future here again, that's Ram Dass, not Rumi.)
So to sum this all up, I don't know the future—and I often fear for a future that I cannot see. I also hope for a future I cannot see.
There isn't really a call to action here, but I do hope that an honest look at fear and the underlying reality of all things—God, the fullness of time, that all manner of things shall be well—is a helpful reminder as you navigate the fears that tempt you to forget the goodness that exists at the foundation of everything, the love that sustains us and that is as close as our next breath, God. This is more easily said and seen when you're not in the midst of suffering, but I think if we can explore the fullness of time in the context of our daily lives it may carry over when suffering strikes.
Finley also describes God (again, as I remember it in my mind) as the one who "protects us from nothing but sustains us in everything". What I've written here doesn't mean that bad things won't happen, that injustice won't exist, or that climate catastrophe won't kill many species and people. It does mean that we are held in love in the midst of it all and that we're called to hold each other as we journey together towards the fullness of time. The times when we do that create a glimpse of the fullness that we have not yet experienced.
I hope this gives you some encouragement as you engage in your work for justice, and I thank you for giving me a purpose and distraction during my flight, which is usually filled with fear. We're about to land.
I pray that all of our work and our way of being can help to make the fullness of time as present as it can be in each next present moment of our earthly pilgrimage.
(Author's note: We made it.)

Q: Android : alternative to setVisibility to Display images onscreen First of all, I am very new at Android and teaching myself so I am not asking you to code it for me.  Just give me some terms, topics or a subject to study and I will hit the books and figure it out.
I am making an app where the user sets what appears on screen by pressing a button or selecting an image.  The only way I know how to do this is to have an onClickListener set a variable and use a switch statement to display an imageView that corresponds to the variable selected.
example:
    //on click listeners set variable userPic1 and userPic2

    switch(userPic1){
    case 1:
        pic11.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        pic12.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic13.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic14.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        break;
    case 2:
        pic11.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic12.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        pic13.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic14.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        break;
    case 3:
        pic11.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic12.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic13.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        pic14.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        break;
    case 4:
        pic11.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic12.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic13.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic14.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        break;
    }

    switch(userPic2){
    case 1:
        pic21.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        pic22.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic23.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic24.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        break;
    case 2:
        pic21.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic22.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        pic23.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic24.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        break;
    case 3:
        pic21.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic22.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic23.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        pic24.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        break;
    case 4:
        pic21.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic22.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic23.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        pic24.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        break;
    }
}

I feel like there is probably a better way to code this, but the bigger problem is in my XML layouts. I have all of these imageViews stacked on top of each other and it is getting difficult to see how they will look because it's just a mess.
Any help is appreciated

A: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ViewFlipper.html will make this a bit easier for you to manage, without such unruly code.

A: Using the ViewFlipper as suggested may help if you're trying to switch between many views. However, if you're really just changing the image and don't need to change your layout instead of creating lots of views, I would simply just set the image on your ImageView (I'm assuming picXX are ImageViews). You can store your IDs in an array or two and get them from there. Something like:
int[] userPics1 = new int[] {R.drawable.pic1, R.drawable.pic2, ... }

and then:
ImageView pic = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.pic);
pic.setImageResource(userPics1[userPic1]);

With a lot of moving due to job transfers, I tried to bloom where I was planted. I believe God honors our efforts to do good wherever he puts us. When we got the call out of the blue to take a job in Hendersonville, where Tony and I met and started our family, I knew it was from the Lord. Tony and I had just discussed a few months earlier if we thought we would ever move back home and he said let's pray together that if it is God's will then He will make it so clear that it cannot be denied. So you can't get much clearer than getting a job you didn't apply for or even know existed. So we sold our business and closed the Georgia chapter of our life. It was bittersweet because I love Georgia very much.
When I saw this quote at St. James Plantation it resonated with me in a special way. As I researched the Oak Island area and experienced the lovely people here in Brunswick County, I kept having thoughts about this quote.
I feel like I've never been afraid of change and God has planted us in a lot of wonderful places. Lastly, being planted back in Hendersonville, we have been blooming there. I still wanted to take this trip to the coast to see if we would like to live here. The time here has helped me to realize I've been planted, I've grown, budded, blossomed, and now is the time to just enjoy the many blossoms bestowed to us. We are so content with our friends, church, home, and neighborhood. I'm not sure it is time to change dirt at this point of my life.
A book I've been reading by Kelly Minter called No Other Gods hit home also to confirm my feelings. It's amazing how God has everything we need at the precise time we need it. As I do my Bible study each day, I feel as if God is telling me to wait. Sarah didn't wait on God. After God promised her a son, she helped things along by giving her maid servant to Abraham to have Ishmael instead of waiting on God. What a mess she made! I hear God saying wait, so I wait. If God gives me Oak Island one day, it will be in his perfect timing and He will make it clear as He did when He planted us in Hendersonville.
I'm grateful for this wonderful experience and I will definitely be back to visit beautiful Oak Island, NC.

WISDOM'S DAUGTHER
The manuscript of which the contents are printed here was discovered among the effects of the late L. Horace Holly, though not until some years after his death. It was in an envelope on which had been scribbled a direction that it should be forwarded to the present editor "at the appointed time," words that at first he did not understand. However, in due course it arrived without any accompanying note of explanation, so that to this hour he does not know by whom it was sent or where from, since the only postmark on the packet was London, W., and the address was typewritten.
When opened the package proved to contain two thick notebooks, bound in parchment, or rather scraped ...

I suppose that I, Humphrey Arbuthnot, should begin this history in which Destiny has caused me to play so prominent a part, with some short account of myself and of my circumstances.
I was born forty years ago in this very Devonshire village in which I write, but not in the same house. Now I live in the Priory, an ancient place and a fine one in its way, with its panelled rooms, its beautiful gardens where, in this mild climate, in addition to our own, flourish so many plants which one would only expect to find in countries that lie nearer to the sun, and its green, undulating park studded with great timber trees. The view, too, is perfect; behind ...
THE YELLOW GOD
SAHARA LIMITED
Sir Robert Aylward, Bart., M.P., sat in his office in the City of London. It was a very magnificent office, quite one of the finest that could be found within half a mile of the Mansion House. Its exterior was built of Aberdeen granite, a material calculated to impress the prospective investor with a comfortable sense of security. Other stucco, or even brick-built, offices might crumble and fall in an actual or a financial sense, but this rock-like edifice of granite, surmounted by a life-sized statue of Justice with her scales, admired from either corner by pleasing effigies of Commerce and of Industry, would surely endure any shock. Earthquake could scarcely s...
THE WORLD'S DESIRE
THE SILENT ISLE
Across the wide backs of the waves, beneath the mountains, and between the islands, a ship came stealing from the dark into the dusk, and from the dusk into the dawn. The ship had but one mast, one broad brown sail with a star embroidered on it in gold; her stem and stern were built high, and curved like a bird's beak; her prow was painted scarlet, and she was driven by oars as well as by the western wind.
A man stood alone on the half-deck at the bows, a man who looked always forward, through the night, and the twilight, and the clear morning. He was of no great stature, but broad-breasted and very wide-shouldered, with many signs of strength. He had ...

ERNEST'S APPEARANCE
"Come here, boy, let me look at you."
Ernest advanced a step or two and looked his uncle in the face. He was a noble-looking lad of about thirteen, with large dark eyes, black hair that curled over his head, and the unmistakable air of breeding that marks Englishmen of good race.
His uncle let his wandering glance stray round him, but, wandering as it was, it seemed to take him in from top to toe. Presently he spoke again:
"I like you, boy."
Ernest said nothing.

THE WAY OF THE SPIRIT
This tale was written two years ago as the result of reflections which occurred to me among the Egyptian sands and the empty cells of long-departed anchorites.
Perhaps in printing it I should ask forgiveness for my deviation from the familiar, trodden pathway of adventure, since in the course of a literary experience extending now, I regret to say, over more than a quarter of a century, often I have seen that he who attempts to step off the line chalked out for him by custom or opinion is apt to be driven back with stones and shoutings. Indeed, there are some who seem to think it very improper that an author should seek, however rarely, to address himself to a new line of ...
THE WANDERER'S NECKLACE
BOOK I—AAR
THE BETROTHAL OF OLAF
Of my childhood in this Olaf life I can regain but little. There come to me, however, recollections of a house, surrounded by a moat, situated in a great plain near to seas or inland lakes, on which plain stood mounds that I connected with the dead. What the dead were I did not quite understand, but I gathered that they were people who, having once walked about and been awake, now laid themselves down in a bed of earth and slept. I remember looking at a big mound which was said to cover a chief known as "The Wanderer," whom Freydisa, the wise woman, my nurse, told me
THE VIRGIN OF THE SUN
There are some who find great interest, and even consolation, amid the worries and anxieties of life in the collection of relics of the past, drift or long-sunk treasures that the sea of time has washed up upon our modern shore.
The great collectors are not of this class. Having large sums at their disposal, these acquire any rarity that comes upon the market and add it to their store which in due course, perhaps immediately upon their deaths, also will be put upon the market and pass to the possession of other connoisseurs. Nor are the dealers who buy to sell again and thus grow wealthy. Nor are the agents of museums in many lands, who purchase for the national benefit thi...
THE PEOPLE OF THE MIST
THE SINS OF THE FATHER ARE VISITED ON THE CHILDREN
The January afternoon was passing into night, the air was cold and still, so still that not a single twig of the naked beech-trees stirred; on the grass of the meadows lay a thin white rime, half frost, half snow; the firs stood out blackly against a steel-hued sky, and over the tallest of them hung a single star. Past these bordering firs there ran a road, on which, in this evening of the opening of our story, a young man stood irresolute, glancing now to the right and now to the left.
To his right were two stately gates of iron fantastically wrought, supported by stone pillars on whose summits stood griffins of black marb...
WHY VROUW BOTMAR TELLS HER TALE
It is a strange thing that I, an old Boer vrouw, should even think of beginning to write a book when there are such numbers already in the world, most of them worthless, and many of the rest a scandal and offence in the face of the Lord. Notably is this so in the case of those called novels, which are stiff as mealie-pap with lies that fill the heads of silly girls with vain imaginings, causing them to neglect their household duties and to look out of the corners of their eyes at young men of whom their elders do not approve. In truth, my mother and those whom I knew in my youth, fifty years ago, when women were good and worthy and never had a t...
STELLA FREGELIUS
MORRIS, MARY, AND THE AEROPHONE
Above, the sky seemed one vast arc of solemn blue, set here and there with points of tremulous fire; below, to the shadowy horizon, stretched the plain of the soft grey sea, while from the fragrances of night and earth floated a breath of sleep and flowers.
A man leaned on the low wall that bordered the cliff edge, and looked at sea beneath and sky above. Then he contemplated the horizon, and murmured some line heard or learnt in childhood, ending "where earth and heaven meet."
"But they only seem to meet," he reflected to himself, idly. "If I sailed to that spot they would be as wide apart as ever. Yes, the stars would be as silent and as far...
There are some events of which each circumstance and surrounding detail seems to be graven on the memory in such fashion that we cannot forget it, and so it is with the scene that I am about to describe. It rises as clearly before my mind at this moment as though it had happened but yesterday.
It was in this very month something over twenty years ago that I, Ludwig Horace Holly, was sitting one night in my rooms at Cambridge, grinding away at some mathematical work, I forget what. I was to go up for my fellowship within a week, and was expected by my tutor and my college generally to distinguish myself. At last, wearied out, I flung my book down, and, going to the mantelp...
SMITH & THE PHARAOHS AND OTHER TALES
Scientists, or some scientists—for occasionally one learned person differs from other learned persons—tell us they know all that is worth knowing about man, which statement, of course, includes woman. They trace him from his remotest origin; they show us how his bones changed and his shape modified, also how, under the influence of his needs and passions, his intelligence developed from something very humble. They demonstrate conclusively that there is nothing in man which the dissecting-table will not explain; that his aspirations towards another life have their root in the fear of death, or, say others of them, in that of earthquake or thunder; that his affinities with the pa...
RED EVE
MURGH THE DEATH
They knew nothing of it in England or all the Western countries in those days before Crecy was fought, when the third Edward sat upon the throne. There was none to tell them of the doom that the East, whence come light and life, death and the decrees of God, had loosed upon the world. Not one in a multitude in Europe had ever even heard of those vast lands of far Cathay peopled with hundreds of millions of cold-faced yellow men, lands which had grown very old before our own familiar states and empires were carved out of mountain, of forest, and of savage-haunted plain. Yet if their eyes had been open so that they could see, well might they have trembled. King, prince, pri...

Q: What's the deck transformation group of quotient space? The question arises from the proof of Galois covering theorem, the one describing the one-one correspondence of intermediate coverings (equivalent class) and subgroups of the deck transformation group of a certain Galois covering. I type the theorem below first.
Fix a Galois covering $p:Y\to X$, where we assume $Y$ is connected while $X$ is locally connected, and denote the deck transformation group of a covering by ${\rm Deck}(Y/X)$. And define the intermediate covering $q:Z\to X$, $f:Y\to Z$, s.t. diagram

commutes, where $Z$ is connected space with $f$ and $q$ both covering maps. Two such diagrams ($p:Y\to X$ is fixed, different $Z,f,q$ and $Z^{\prime},f^{\prime},q^{\prime}$) are said to be equivalent if there exists a homeomorphism $\varphi:Z\to Z^{\prime}$, s.t. the diagram

commutes. Now we have two sets, the equivalent class of intermediate covering maps $\mathcal{C}=\{\text{equivalent diagrams of intermediate coverings of a fixed Galois covering }p:Y\to X\}$ and all the subgroups of ${\rm Deck}(Y/X)$: $\mathcal{G}=\{H|H<{\rm Deck}(Y/X)\}$, we tentatively define 2 maps between these groups, ${\rm Deck}:\mathcal{C}\to \mathcal{G}$ by:

One can check this is well-defined. To define the second map, we note first the natural action of ${\rm Deck}(Y/X)$ on $Y$ by the definition of homeomorphism $g(y),\ g\in {\rm Deck}(Y/X)$, so is one of its subgroup $H$. Construct the quotient group and canonical map $\pi:Y\to Y/H$,and by the universal property of quotient, there exits unique map $\bar{p}:Y/H\to X$, s.t.

commutes. It can be proved that $\pi$ and $\bar{p}$ are also covering maps, which is a part of the theorem below. Now define the second map $/:\mathcal{G}\to \mathcal{C}$, by:

To sum up, we define two maps $\mathcal{C}\underset{/}{\stackrel{\rm Deck}{\rightleftharpoons}}\mathcal{G}$. Now states the theorem:
Fix a Galois covering $p:Y\to X$, where $Y$ is connected and $X$ is locally connected. Then (1) any covering $q:Z\to X$, Z connected, s.t. there exists morphism $f:Y\to Z$ to commutes the diagram

then the map $f$ is a Galois covering.   (2) ${\rm Deck}\circ /={\rm id}_{\mathcal{G}}$ and $/\circ {\rm Deck}={\rm id}_{\mathcal{C}}$  (3) under Deck and / defined above, covering $q:Z\to X$ is Galois iff ${\rm Deck}(Y/Z)\vartriangleleft{\rm Deck}(Y/X)$.
Having proved the first two parts, we can replace the general intermediate covering $q:Z\to X$ and $f:Y\to Z$ by $\bar{p}:Y/H\to X, \text{for a certain H}\in \mathcal{G}$ and $\pi:Y\to Y/H$, because of the 1-1 correspondence in (2). Then the theorem's third part asks equivalently when is $\bar{p}$ also Galois? Iff $H\vartriangleleft {\rm Deck}(Y/X).$ The proof is to figure out the relation between ${\rm Deck}(Y/X)$ and ${\rm Deck}\big((Y/H)\big/X\big)$. When$H\vartriangleleft {\rm Deck}(Y/X)$ we can induced a natural homeomorphism from $g\in {\rm Deck}(Y/X)$ on $Y/H$, called $\bar{g}$, by $\bar{g}(\bar{y}):=\overline{g(y)},\ any\ y\in Y$. One can check that the normality guarantees $\bar{g}$ is well defined and the definition is to say $\bar{g}\circ\pi=\pi\circ g$, which makes the diagram

commute. This definition further induces a homomorphism from ${\rm Deck}(Y/X)$ to ${\rm Deck}\big((Y/H)\big/X\big)$ Then here arises the question, if this homomorphism is onto, we will finish the proof of necessity part of the theorem (I omit the proving detail). And more or less we can guess ${\rm Deck}(Y/X)\big/H={\rm Deck}\big((Y/H)\big/X\big)$ from fundamental theorem of group homomorphism. So the question becomes for any $h\in {\rm Deck}\big((Y/H)\big/X\big)$, is there $g\in {\rm Deck}(Y/X)$, s.t. $h\circ \pi=\pi\circ g$ to let the diagram

commutes?
At first I tried to construct $g$ from the property of quotient but failed, then I consider $\pi$ is a covering. For any $\bar{y}\in Y/H$, we can choose an open neighborhood $U$ of $\bar{y}$ s.t. $\pi^{-1}(U)=\coprod_{\alpha\in I}V_{\alpha}$ where $V_{\alpha}$ is open in $Y$ and $\pi\Big|_{V_{\alpha}}$ is homeomorphism, with neighborhood $hU$ of $h(\bar{y})$ s.t. $\pi^{-1}(hU)=\coprod_{\beta\in I}W_{\beta}$ where $W_{\beta}$ is open in $Y$ and $\pi\Big|_{W_{\beta}}$ is homeomorphism. Then I consider lift $h$ on those disjoint union piece by piece $g\Big|_{V_{\alpha}}:V_{\alpha}\to W_{\beta},\ g=\Big(\pi\Big|_{V_{\alpha}}\Big)^{-1}\circ h\circ\pi\Big|_{W_{\beta}}$, and for two such open sets of $Y/H$ that intersect $U\cap U_1\neq \emptyset$, choose the lift to match on those disjoint pieces and by gluing lemma, I get a larger lifting $g\Big|_{V_{\alpha}\cup V_{1\alpha}}:V_{\alpha}\cup V_{1\alpha}\to W_{\beta}\cup W_{1\beta}$. So after I repeat the same process on an open cover of $Y/H$, I somehow "glue" a $g$ on $Y$ which satisfies the requirement. But that means I may use gluing lemma infinite times, which may not be right then.
Then I get stuck. Any hint or help? Thanks a lot.

Thank you to the Grey Lynn Festival goers who came to talk to me at 'The Resting Place'.
It takes courage to access Rest in our lives as it flies in the face of how we strive to achieve through hard work and determination and long hours.
People who don't understand will think you have wasted time when you stop 'to reflect' and 'to imagine what could be'.
Outwardly it looks like doing nothing, but those who have been there will know it is tapping into resources within you that are not available in any other way.
Athletes know if they up their training that they need to up their nutrition, sleep and recovery times. If they don't they are vulnerable to increased injury and they won't hit peak performance. But busy people think they can push more into their days and get away with it until the health crisis or the fatigue or anxiety or other emotional or relational problems surface.
Learning how to Rest is the answer to high performance with sustainability for both groups of people.
So I really enjoyed talking to you – and trust I have introduced you to a life skill that you will continue to develop and enjoy as time goes on.
I always reckon if what I say is true, it won't just come from me, but you will start to hear about it more from others, from the media, and you will get that inner witness that will call you to value calm and invest more into it.
Thank you so much for the conversation we had. It really made a huge impact on me and I'm practising to breath in the way you instructed me to.
Hi Denise, thank you for your positive comment. It was good to hear that you are practising as that is what it takes to 'normalise' the habit of entering Rest. I heard a comment from someone recently that when they learnt to Rest they 'rediscovered their heart', and I know that feeling too, as it opens the door to a fresh experience of daily life.

Il Männer-Turn-Verein München von 1879 e.V., noto come MTV München von 1879 e.V. e semplicemente come MTV München, è una società polisportiva tedesca del centro di Monaco di Baviera. Con più di 6 000 membri al 2021 è la più grande polisportiva della città della Baviera. Le sue divisioni sportive hanno ottenuto numerosi successi nazionali e internazionali. Dalla sua sezione calcistica trasse origine, nel 1897, il , fondato ufficialmente nel 1900.

Storia
Il 29 giugno 1879 i quattro ginnasti Franz-Paul Lang, Ferdinand Dix, Josef Hailer e Max Meisinger fondarono il club. I fondatori erano in precedenza membri del Turn- und Sportvereins München ("Club ginnico e sportivo di Monaco di Baviera"), da cui in seguito nacque il club Turn- und Sportverein München von 1860, noto in italia come Monaco 1860. Nell'agosto 1879 l'MTV divenne membro del Bayerischer Turnverband ("associazione ginnica bavarese").

Negli anni seguenti si formarono altri reparti sportivi oltre a quello ginnico: scherma (1880), canto (1880), calcio (1897), mazza e palla, pallacanestro, anelli, hockey su ghiaccio (tutti nel 1900), hockey, atletica leggera (entrambi nel 1910). Il 27 febbraio 1900 i calciatori lasciarono il club e fondarono una propria società calcistica, il Fußball-Club Bayern München e. V., noto in italiano come Bayern Monaco.

Durante la prima guerra mondiale morirono più di 700 membri del club e diversi dipartimenti furono sciolti, anche se qualche tempo dopo alcuni dei reparti furono ricostituiti: pallamano (1920), pugilato, judo (entrambi nel 1926), hockey (1928), tennis, tennis da tavolo (entrambi nel 1937), badminton (1956), sollevamento pesi (1966), karate (1967), tennis (1969), danza (2000) e pallavolo (2004).

Wittenberg. (xv) "With 100 watts to get a pile up to North America on the low bands - that was phenomenal. I was really challenged and it was great to be able to really get into it, "enthused Irina Stieber (DL8DYL) from Dresden, expressing her personal impressions of the WRTC. Team partner of Maddin Riederer (DL4NAC) from Bayreuth, both have achieved more than 4100 QSOs and about 75% of them have been on CW.

Irina had concentrated on Morse telegraphy. In phases I managed more than 200 contacts per hour.

Tomorrow night Kacey Musgraves, one of Nashville's hottest young singers, rolls into Joe's to perform in support of her chart-topping album Same Trailer Different Park (Mercury). In some ways the 24-year old Texas native fits squarely into country's current mainstream, writing overdone pop melodies for songs like "Back on the Map" and "Keep it to Yourself," and serving up predictable romantic dross on "I Miss You." But more often than not she pushes against convention while working from within the machine, whether it's prominence of banjo in her often small-bore arrangements or lyrics that bristle against small-town living and patriarchal desires.
On "Silver Linings" she has fun with wordplay, dicing up one tired bromide after another to snuff out simple-minded optimism, while "My House" is one big slice of cornpone humor—an age-old country tradition—where she dismisses the dream of "a house up on a hill" and instead sings about life in an RV, dropping silly lines like, "Water and electric and a place to drain the septic / Any KAO is A-OK as long as I'm with you." The album also includes a nice kiss-off in "Step Off" and an expression of love's futility in "Stupid," while the album closer bluntly admits to some lustful hookups that mean little more than killing time and salving loneliness. While none of this stuff sounds remotely radical in pop music, there's a refreshing directness compared to most of what fills country airwaves, plus Musgraves generally keeps her balance of twang and pop tunefulness on the right side of mawkish. I'm eager to see whether Musgraves grows as a songwriter—she had a hand in composing all twelve songs here, another anomaly in Nashville—or if she turns into one of her characters, dreaming big but living small. Below you can check out the video for "Merry Go 'Round."

Kevin's Kids succeeds despite coronavirus shutdown
Educators and leaders from across the area joined with Kevin Williams (screen) to present the area Family Resources Centers with a check in support of their work. "It's all for the kids," said Sherry Coffey, the coordinator for RCMS and RCHS.
By Drew Bergman
For the past six years musician Kevin Williams has held a concert at Russell Springs First Baptist Church in support of Kevin's Kids, an organization that supports economically disadvantaged children in Russell County.
Williams is a member of The Gaither Vocal Band, a Grammy and Gospel Music Association award-winning southern gospel group with nearly four decades of success behind them.
"Kevin's originally from here, and he came to us," said Superintendent Michael Ford. "He knew he wanted to give back to this community. He leads it, it all happens with him, we're just the beneficiaries of his work."
"This all goes through the student resource centers at the schools," said Jo Nell Smith a retired music teacher who taught Williams when he was a student in Russell County.
"It supplies for the needs of the kids of Russell County," said Gordon Lester, the director of family resource for Russell Springs and Salem Elementary. "That can be anything from food or clothing, hygiene items. Anything to help a kid be able to come to school adequately."
The 7th Annual Kevin's Kids Concert was supposed to have taken place on Saturday, March 28, but like most everything else this spring, it was canceled due to the novel coronavirus. Despite not having the charity's benchmark event, Kevin's Kids still managed to raise $28,000 this year, and has now raised over $300,000 for Russell County children over the past seven years.
"The money goes into a protected account," said Superintendent Ford, "so it can only be spent for what [the resource centers] approve it for."
While the amount raised is not to the level it has been in the past, Kevin's Kids still being able to raise $28,000 is still a feat Williams describes as "monumental." Keeping things in perspective, Williams pointed out that being able to raise these amounts out of a county of only about 17,000 people is still encouraging and something to continue to carry forward in the years to come.
"Boy, this doesn't look like anything we've done in the past," Williams said from his home as he was projected onto a screen in the Russell Springs Auditorium-Natatorium Complex. "We would get together and present a check in the foyer right outside and everybody would be loving on one another and hugging and shaking hands and posing for pictures all squeezed up and that's not what we're seeing today."
Spread out around the community room, watching his remarks were the mayors of Russell Springs and Jamestown, Eddie Thomas and Nick Shearer, Superintendent Michael Ford, Ryan Coffey and Christian Naylor, the pastor and youth minister of Russell Springs First Baptist Church were all on hand alongside Sherry Coffey, Sherri Selby, and Gordon Lester, all with the area student resource centers.
Williams was raised in a trailer park on Hale's Highway and knows first-hand the importance of community support for impoverished children. "I'm grateful for all of you being here and showing up," Williams said.
"This is a community work, we're just honored and excited to be a part of that, to walk with you guys hand in hand and step by step," said Brother Coffey. "As the host church, we were excited to play a big part in this, but we also know that we are just part of a community effort. I am blessed to live in and serve a community that cares about its own, that takes care of its own, and has the backs of kids."
"There's a coming together and a unification in our community," Williams said. "About one out of three kids is in poverty right now. That's high compared to the national statistics, about double that. We started [Kevin's Kids] with this in mind, to reach those kids that went unnoticed."
The unifying philosophy is that with Kevin's Kids raising money in support of the Family Resource Centers, enabling the centers to intervene in their lives and provide these children with services then the children can find hope where it is lacking and to feel a part of the community that they too easily see themselves as being outside of.
"This is a time when 44 million Americans are unemployed," said Williams. "We have unprecedented economic challenges. We have a worldwide pandemic and yet there is one county in Kentucky who is getting together today to present a check to the generations of tomorrow."

Professor Kate Schroder heads the Inflammasome Laboratory and is Director of the Centre for Inflammation and Disease Research at the Institute for Molecular Bioscience (IMB), University of Queensland, as an NHMRC RD Wright Biomedical Fellow. Kate's graduate studies defined novel macrophage activation mechanisms and her subsequent postdoctoral research identified surprising inter-species divergence in the inflammatory programs of human versus mouse macrophages. As an NHMRC CJ Martin Fellow in Switzerland, Kate trained with the pioneer of inflammasome biology, Jürg Tschopp. The IMB Inflammasome Laboratory, which Kate heads, investigates the molecular mechanisms governing inflammasome activity and caspase activation, the cellular mediators of inflammasome-dependent inflammation, and mechanisms of inflammasome inhibition by cellular pathways and small molecule inhibitors.
Kate is a co-inventor on patents for small molecule inhibitors of the NLRP3 inflammasome, currently under commercialisation by Inflazome Ltd. Inflazome Ltd was recently acquired by Roche in a landmark deal – one of the largest in Australian and Irish biotech history. The acquisition gives Roche full rights to Inflazome's portfolio of inflammasome inhibitors. Two of the company's drug candidates are in clinical trials for the treatment of debilitating conditions such as cardiovascular disease, arthritis and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and motor neuron disease.
Kate has authored more than 100 publications, featuring in journals such as Science, Cell, Nature Genetics, Nature Medicine, Nature Chemical Biology, Journal of Experimental Medicine and PNAS USA, and her work has been cited more than 17,000 times. Kate is an Editorial Board Member for international journals including Science Signaling, Clinical and Translational Immunology and Cell Death Disease. She is the recipient of the 2019 ANZSCDB Emerging Leader Award, 2019 Merck Research Medal, 2014 Milstein Young Investigator Award, 2013 Tall Poppy Award, 2012 Gordon Ada Career Award, 2010 QLD Premier's Postdoctoral Award, and the 2008 Society for Leukocyte Biology's Dolph Adams Award.


Golf is generally considered a safe sport. As long as everyone on the course follows a few safety rules, there isn't too much to worry about. But accidents do happen and injuries can occur. Here are guidelines to follow at your next tee time.
Golf is a game played with clubs that have metal heads – a recipe for disaster in the wrong hands. As you prepare to swing, it's your responsibility to ensure your golfing partners are at a safe distance. Never swing a golf club when someone is standing nearby, including practice swings. As you prepare to swing, look left, right, and ahead of where you're aiming. Don't hit the ball until you're confident no other golfers are in range. Keep a particularly close eye on younger golfers with less experience.
Around the world, fore is the warning yelled out if someone is in danger of being hit by an errant golf ball. Whether it's you or another golfer who hit a drive farther than anticipated, everyone needs to take cover. Golf balls move at a fast speed and are not easy to spot when they're airborne. To protect yourself, step behind a tree, hide behind the cart, or cover your head with both arms.
Finally, wear sun protection and stay hydrated. And watch out for lightning – at the first sign of it, head directly to the clubhouse. Out on the course, group members should stay 15 feet apart and do not stand under a tree – they are nature's lightning rods!
Golf is a fun sport and a great excuse to head outdoors. Follow these simple precautions to eliminate risk. If you are injured because of someone's negligence, call the Las Vegas personal injury lawyers at Greenman, Goldberg, Raby and Martinez 702-388-4476 to learn your legal rights.

There's a reasonable approach to sunscreen use—even for those who are skeptical about its safety, says a University of Alberta dermatologist.
"From a philosophical perspective, some people may not use sunscreen because they believe it's not a natural way to live, or they are worried it may cause cancer, or they are concerned about sunscreen chemicals polluting water," said Robert Gniadecki.
"However, it's important to protect your skin from the sun. And the role sunscreen plays in helping to reduce your exposure to ultraviolet rays can be a balanced one," he added.

Karl Arvid Johansson, född 17 september 1870 i By församling, Kopparbergs län, död 27 juni 1934 i Djursholm, var en svensk bergsingenjör och professor.

Johansson blev student 1889, utexaminerades från Kungliga Tekniska högskolans fyraåriga fackskola för metallurgi och hyttkonst 1893, var 1893-1895 assistent i bergskemi vid Kungliga Tekniska högskolan, 1895-1896 ritare vid Hofors bruk. År 1896 blev han föreståndare för metallurgiska avdelningen vid Sandvikens Jernverk och var 1918-1928 professor i hyttmekanik samt järnets bearbetning vid Kungliga Tekniska högskolan. Åren 1928-1934 var han föreståndare för Jernkontorets nyupprättade tekniska byrå och huvudredaktör för "Jernkontorets annaler" samt 1930-1934 överingenjör vid Jernkontoret. Han var även ordförande i styrelsen för Metallografiska institutet i Stockholm 1926-1934.

Johansson företog många utländska studieresor, var 1911-1913 vice ordförande i Svenska Teknologföreningen, blev ledamot av Ingenjörsvetenskapsakademien vid dess stiftande 1919 samt anlitades i stor utsträckning för såväl enskilda som offentliga uppdrag och utredningar inom sitt fack. Han var bland annat ledamot av kungliga kommittén för utarbetande av förslag till ny gruvlag (1920). I olika tidskrifter, däribland "Jernkontorets annaler", "Teknisk tidskrift" och "Det nya Sverige", publicerade han bergstekniska uppsatser, bl.a. Malmbriketters tillverkning och användning i masugn (1908), Direkt valsning af göt från icke eldade värmegropar (1920), Värmebehandling af stål för konstruktionsändamål (1922), Om möjligheten af en järntillverkning i Norra Sverige, grundad på Lapplandsmalm (1923), Den svenska sura bessemerprocessen (1931) och Undersökningar rörande ytavkolning av stål (1932). Jernkontoret tilldelade honom Rinmanmedaljen 1934.

During a school visit earlier this week, a teacher showed me a copy of the March Arrow Book Club.

Let's be honest. Anything fried is bound to taste good. These flautas are delicious regardless of what you fill the corn tortillas with! I used leftover pork carnitas (in which I linked a recipe to) but you can certainly use leftover chicken, ground beef, or even cheese and bean to make other flauta varieties. The key is to roll the flautas really nice and tight, making sure they are pulled taut before securing with toothpicks. Doing so prevents the flautas from opening up in hot oil... not a good thing. I've also found rolling them up tight and freezing helps hold their shape well. If you freeze them, you can also fry them from frozen... making them a great make ahead appetizer/dish to enjoy later or for a party.
Combine the shredded pork with cumin, oregano, salt and pepper and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, add 2 cups of vegetable oil and heat to 375 degrees.
Meanwhile, fill each corn tortilla with 2 tablespoons of the seasoned shredded pork mixture in a line along the bottom edge of the tortilla. Tightly roll the tortilla into a cylinder, and secure the ends with one or two toothpicks. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Fry the flautas in the preheated oil, no more than 4 at a time, until golden and crisp, about 4 minutes. Drain the flautas on a paper towel-lined plate. Discard toothpicks and enjoy the flautas with your favorite accompaniments and/or toppings.
Fried and Pork are two of my favorite things! Love that these can be made ahead and fried from frozen.
I love flautas!! These look delicious!

Dual AMD FirePro D700 graphics processors with 6Gb of GDDR5 VRam each.
2 x 6 cores of Intel Quad-Core Xeon E5 Processors running at 2.7Ghz. These have the major advantage of the cores being on one single die – not separated as many multicore processors are. The single die shares its 30Mb of L3 cache readily with the 12 processor cores and the result is fast access to cached data and far greater performance. The system memory is all connected by an integrated memory controller giving direct and instant access to data in memory considerably reducing latency. An integrated memory controller together with fast DDR3 ECC SDRAM at 1866MHz gives a great increase in memory bandwidth allowing more data to be fed fast to the processors and avoid them waiting for data to arrive.
The Mac Pro has Turbo Boost – the ability to dynamically boost the processor clock speed just when its needed and only the cores where it is required – up to 3.9Ghz on a 6 core system. The MacPro supports Hyper Threading, which allows two threads to run simultaneously on each core – so a 6 core presents 12 virtual cores that are recognised by MacOSX. This enables the processor to take full advantage of the resources available in each core. QuickPath Interconnect gives the Intel Xeon processors quick access to the hard drives, the I/O and other Mac Pro subsystems.
Xeon E5 Processors with 12 cores and very fast memory (up to 128Gb in four slots with 60 GBps bandwidth all on a single die. Thats 40 lanes of PCI Express (generation 3) throughput, up to 30Mb of L3 cache and over 500 gigaflops at peak performance!
