1 - AMD Releases Radeon Software Crimson ReLive 2 - AMD Radeon ReLive
AMD is today releasing its major 2016 driver update. Where 2014 brought us Catalyst Omega and 2015, after the creation of the Radeon Technologies Group, brought us Radeon Software Crimson Edition, 2016 is the year of Crimson ReLive, which has just been made available for public consumption. Originally, the idea was to move through different shades of red each year, but Crimson ReLive is a name designed apparently to recognise the success of the Crimson Edition driver, which has seen over 85 million downloads and sits at a 4.5/5 user approval rating. Said to bring benefits to consumers, professionals and developers and described by AMD as its biggest ever software release, ReLive is also a direct reference to Radeon ReLive, which is included in the new driver package and adds new DVR functionality for gameplay recording, sharing and streaming, to compete with Nvidia Share (formerly ShadowPlay).
We cover ReLive in greater detail on the next page, but there's plenty more to discuss with this release. First is the usual list of top ten bug fixes, reproduced below. In addition, AMD says that this software has been treated to 25 percent more quality assurance (QA) testing for additional reliability.
AMD also cites performance improvements, up to eight percent, in a variety of games, although it's comparing Crimson ReLive to Radeon Software Crimson 16.6.2 from back in June when the RX 480 launched, so some (if not all) of these gains will have been made prior to this launch.
New display and connectivity features include automatic detection and notification of faulty or sub-par HDMI cables, support for the Dolby Vision and HDR 10 standards for High Dynamic Range content and DisplayPort HBR3 support for single-cable 4K 120Hz, 5K 60Hz or 8K 30Hz panels (for Radeon RX products only).
FreeSync continues to be improved as well, now supported in borderless fullscreen mode. On the notebook front, Gradual Refresh Ramp equates to power savings by smoothly increasing or decreasing refresh rate when switching between fullscreen apps and the desktop.
Other performance-related tweaks include VP9 Decode Acceleration for 4K 60Hz GPU-accelerated video streaming and enhancements for Skype that lower APU usage, at least if your APU falls into the Bristol, Carrizo or Stoney Ridge families.
One of the more interesting features is Radeon Chill. The idea is simple: It dynamically regulates frame rates, deliberately reducing performance at times in-game where user input and onscreen movement are low in order to save power and lower temperatures and potentially noise too, but instantly ramping up when movement increases – it's designed to be unnoticeable such that the real-world impact is only really positive. It also works constantly to prevent excessively high frame rates in a similar way to the previously introduced feature Frame Rate Target Control (FRTC). Another potential knock-on benefit is lowered frame times, and thus less impact lag, as a result of the GPU queue being less full.
For many desktop users, this won't be a concern and in recognition of this the default setting for all games is off. We can see it being a much better fit in gaming notebooks – AMD has practically no presence in this market nowadays, but this could be a sign that it has its eye on changing that. Either way, for each of the games supported, users can choose to toggle it either globally or on a per-game basis. AMD is creating suggested profiles for each game, but users can choose their own maximum and minimum FPS settings. Currently, only DirectX 9, 10 and 11 games are supported; DX12 is being looked into, but the focus really is on less powerful titles where performance overhead is more likely. It's also fully compatible with FreeSync, which makes total sense.
The RX 480 launch brought with it WattMan, a GPU overclocking utility with detailed, per-game controls built directly into the Crimson driver interface. With Crimson ReLive, support in WattMan is being extended to older GCN-based products too.
Crimson introduced the world to a new Radeon Settings interface built on Qt. This will remain mostly unchanged, although the installation interface now looks similar and is more modern as a result. AMD is also adding a direct user feedback area to ease the feedback process and where users can vote on potential upcoming features. Another new UI feature is the Upgrade Advisor, whereby the software will present users with ticks or exclamation marks based on whether their hardware meets the requirements for said game or if the user might benefit from an upgrade. However, this is limited to Steam games and will only function in North America, at least for now.
The new Linux version of the driver adds Linux FreeSync 1.0 support and expands support to the entire AMD discrete GPU GCN-based product family.
Something that will be of interest mainly to folks like ourselves that spend half of lives benchmarking games is the Open Capture and Analytics Tool (OCAT), which also releases today and can capture frame data in DirectX 12 and Vulkan titles (things which FRAPS either struggles with or cannot do at all) as well as DirectX 11 ones. It's developed by a third-party and open-source, so there shouldn't be any funny business or favouritism for the red team's products.
The new features for developers and professionals are outside the scope of our usual coverage but are summarised in the slide above. For the former, the big push is the GPUOpen initiative, a collection of open-source libraries, SDKs and tools that continues to be expanded, especially with VR-focussed features under the LiquidVR suite. For professionals, there's a new Linux driver, significant year-on-year performance gains and greater levels of certification testing for key applications.

CWB Index Data Sources 2017
Child Well-Being One-Pager
Child Well-Being Overview, 8.5×11 Brochure
County Specific Data Brochures
Child Well-Being Toolkit
Pathway to Child Well-Being
Develop the framework, tools and partnerships to measure child well-being across Greater Atlanta. Help identify high-needs neighborhoods across the 13 counties that United Way serves, to invest our resources and efforts for maximum impact.
Data backed research – Using a set of indicators that was diligently selected, the child well-being index is calculated using the dimensions of children, families, and communities.
Census Tract Level – After much research and deliberation, the index has been drilled down to the neighborhood level for maximum impact. In the 13 counties served by United Way of Greater Atlanta there are a total of 776 census tracts.
Engage – Engage multiple organizations and community leaders around a shared method for measuring child well-being that aligns with a common agenda and a shared target for improving child well-being.
Act – use the community dashboard as a mechanism for United Way, our partners and others in the community to demonstrate their contributions and alignment toward improving conditions embedded in the index.
Below is the current list of indicators used in the Child Well-Being Index, by sub-domains.
Child Measures:
High School College & Career Readiness Performance Index (CCRPI) Score
% Exceeding 3rd Grade Reading
% Exceeding 8th Grade Mathematics
% Low Birth Weight Births
% Under 18, with no Health Insurance
% Under 18 in Poverty
Family Measures:
% Families Not Financially Stable
% Families with Housing Cost Burden
% Births to Moms Without a High School Diploma
Community Measures:
% Enrolled in Post-Secondary Education
% Adults Without a High School Diploma
% Adults Without Health Insurance
Overview & Analysis
To best identify the high need areas in the 13 county region, the CWB Index and the sub-indices were calculated at the census tract level.
At this level of geography, observations are missing for some census tracts on some of the indicators. Missing observations were replaced by imputed values generated by the Multiple Imputations procedure using 20 imputations (for a 99.2 % relative efficiency). This completed dataset was used in all calculations.
To facilitate comparison across indicators, all indicator values were standardized to z-scores* using the mean and standard deviation across all 776 census tracts.
* zi = (xi-mean)/std deviation, where xi =indicator value for tract i | (Range of z-scores was -3 to +3).
z scores were further transformed so that the magnitude of each z-score is consistent with higher z-values indicating higher levels of opportunity based on that component. For example, for poverty, a high value reflects lower neighborhood opportunity. The z-scores for poverty were multiplied by (-1), so higher poverty rates translated to lower z-scores.
If a z-score was outside the -3 to +3 range, it was deemed an outlier. Outlier z-scores were capped at ±3.1
CWB index score (and sub-domain index scores) were calculated for each Census Tract in the following manner:
* Child sub-Index Score=(Sum of z-scores for each of the seven indicators listed above under Child)/7
* Family sub-Index Score=(Sum of z-scores for each of the three indicators listed above under Family)/3
* Community sub-Index Score=(Sum of z-scores for each of the four indicators listed above under Community)/4
* Overall Child Well-Being Index Score=(Child sub-index score + Family sub-index score + Community sub-index score)/3
Quintile distributions of each of the indices were calculated. They were designated as Very Low, Low, Average, High and Very High. Each census tract was given one of these ranking for the overall Index (and for each sub-index).
Distribution of the Child Well-Being Numbers
Total # of Census Tracts
Alternate Method to Indicate a Census Tracts' Current Status
Traffic Light (Green, Yellow, Red) designations were given to census tracts based on their scores. High needs areas were indicated by a "Red" color. A tract that had an average score was given the color "Yellow" indicating it was performing at an average level and needed to improve. A census tract with a high score was given a "Green" color indicating it was on the right track. These designations were based on the overall performance of the 776 census tracts on each indicator and on all indices.

What To Do About Abduction/Robberies?
For the third time in 18 months, a credit union employee and her family have been abducted from their own home as part of a robbery (CU Journal, June 2).
The abduction/robbery raises questions about whether there is anything credit unions can do to protect employees and whether proper security is in place inside credit union facilities.
Experts told The Credit Union Journal there are certain precautions credit unions can take, but acknowledged the vulnerability to such crimes remains in place.
In the most recent case, an employee of $20-million Whitehall Credit Union in Columbus was abducted from her home, along with her children ages 2,4 and 6, and driven at gunpoint to the credit union, forced to open it and give money to the perpetrators. No arrests have been made. It follows similar incidents at another Ohio credit union and a credit union in Wisconsin. In addition, one bank and six check-cashing outlets in Columbus have been victimized in similar abduction/robberies.
The fact that no arrests have been made in the two years since these crimes began-and that no arrests appear imminent-means credit unions and other financial institutions may need to review their disaster planning. Unfortunately, it may not be enough.
"There is only so much a credit union can do, particularly since these crimes are starting off at an employee's residence," said Vince Wagner, a risk management specialist at CUNA Mutual Group, Madison, Wis. "This is a type of disaster, and if you ask credit unions if they have a disaster plan, just about all of them will say 'yes.' But if you look at those plans, you'll find very few of them with contingencies for something like this."
He said the three incidents in 18 months does not necessarily show a trend. "Certainly, it's more than we've seen in the recent past," Wagner noted. "And of course, it may be happening more among other financial institutions, but we only work with credit unions."
As The Credit Union Journal reported June 2, there have been eight abduction/robberies just in Columbus alone over the last two years, Columbus Police are offering crime prevention tips to financial institutions in that city.
What Employees Can Do
"First of all, employees need to be cognizant of people watching them, say from an adjacent lot, particularly at open and close," said Sgt. Shaun Laird of the Columbus Robbery Squad. "In each case, once inside, the perpetrators are relaying to the victim that they've been watching them. It's obvious they are conducting surveillance. They know the routine, they determine who has access. There has never been a time when they have picked a person who doesn't have access."
He said employees also need to be aware of people who may be following them or trying to observe their routines at home, and should consider mixing up their daily routine a little so that they're not quite so predictable a target.
As for what the institutions can do at their locations, Laird pointed out two commonalities among the institutions that have been hit in Columbus. "Most of the locations do have cameras, but they're activated by employees when they come in and open up, and then they are turned off at night when they leave. On entering the building with the perpetrators, the employees are never given a chance to turn those cameras on, so we have no footage of any of these crimes."
In each of the Columbus cases, the perpetrators have also selected only those locations that have no time delay on their vaults or safes, Laird added.
Some Steps May Not Work
But even upgrading to 24/7 cameras or putting time locks on vaults or safes may not be much of a deterrent, Wagner suggested.
"You can go to cameras that are on 24-by-seven, for example. Or, I assume all these places had some sort of alarm in place that had to be deactivated by the employee, so you arrange with your security company that the cameras go on any time the alarm system is deactivated," he offered. "But most crooks are familiar with security cameras, so they know to blacken the lens of the camera, typically with spray paint.
"Most credit unions don't have vaults, they have safes, and most safes don't have time-locks on them. It can be expensive to put them on, but it can be done," Wagner continued. "The time-lock becomes a difficult issue because your employees' safety is paramount. I'm not sure how the robber would know ahead of time about a time-lock or not, even if they have been doing a lot of surveillance-most safes are not out where the public can see them-only the employees see them. Add to that the fact that you don't know how a perpetrator is going to respond when the time-lock is discovered. It adds to the risk because of the frustration. Some will understand that there's nothing the employee can do and just walk away, but others maybe won't.
"Robbers take control. The idea is for you to retain as much control as possible."
Employees Must Inform CU
In addition to making employees aware of abduction scenarios and that they may be being watched, employees also need to make sure the credit union knows if the employee thinks he and/or the credit union may be under surveillance. Depending on the situation, the CU may need to alert law enforcement.
Employees also need to make sure the credit union knows as much about them and their itineraries as possible.
"We had a credit union where the CEO was on vacation. A fax came in saying that the CEO had been caught for speeding two states away and needed the credit union to wire him some money, but in fact, the CEO was out raking the yard, he wasn't two states away," Wagner related. "Fortunately, the CEO made sure someone knew what he was doing on his vacation, so the credit union knew he wasn't two states away and didn't respond to that fax."
In the case of an abduction-robbery or other hostage-taking situation, the same thing applies. "We suggest they put together some confidential information in a sealed envelope, something that will help identify him, a contact list with important phone numbers, etc.," Wagner commented. "We have some of our own people who have done this."
Other Steps To Take
At the same time, an employee who has access to the safe or vault should ensure this confidential information isn't readily available to the public. "They may want to have an unlisted phone number, for example. They shouldn't respond to inquiries for the community directory when they're asked for their title at work or a description of what they do."
Employees also should make their families aware of these safety issues, teaching children how to answer the phone and what information not to give over the phone, for example-and also how to respond if something like this should happen.
And communication with law enforcement before anything goes wrong can make a big difference, too.
"Typically, in these types of activities, a federal law enforcement agency is involved, but the first responders are still going to the local law enforcement, so talk to them about prevention tips and what to do if something happens," Wagner advised. "This is still very infrequent, to our knowledge, but that doesn't mean credit unions shouldn't plan for this type of disaster."

St. Julian's city guide
St. Julian's is an enchanting little city located on the island of Malta. It's 7km north from the capital Valletta, but it all feels like one area and not as separate municipalities. Some people still seem to think it's a part of Italy, but it's a republic of its own. Malta is like that "most interesting man on earth" meme. There are structures thousands of years older than the Pyramids in Egypt. It used to be a nursing place for soldiers fighting in both world wars. It was a base of operations for the allied troops. You can check the Lascaris War Rooms out if you want to learn more. The last proper battle of the Crusader Knights was the Siege of Malta, which was the beginning of the end of the Ottoman Empire. All that and more on an island the size of 10 landing strips. It has become a po...

Kara Arundel/K-12 Dive/K-12 Dive, data from Chiefs for Change
Kara Arundel
Federal and state authorities should make COVID-19 vaccines immediately available to all school staff and clearly communicate those plans so there can be a speedier return of full in-person learning, said several district superintendents who participated in a Jan. 13 virtual press conference organized by Chiefs for Change.
Vaccination distribution programs for school employees should be in addition to other safety protocols many schools already are implementing, such as contact tracing, testing, social distancing, mask use and personal protective equipment availability, the school leaders said.
While there is a willingness and demand from school staff to be inoculated, supply chain problems, conflicting information and employees' anxieties are some of the challenges school leaders are facing as they work with local health departments to access vaccines.
"We have far too many students who are struggling, and I'm very concerned that we could lose a generation of kids if we don't act quickly," Robert Runcie, superintendent of Broward County Public Schools in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (pictured above), said during the event.
Although the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention laid out guidance for COVID-19 vaccine distribution that put school staff in an early priority stage to receive vaccines, access has been slow and disparate in many communities, the administrators said. They want the federal government to immediately release all vaccine doses that have received emergency authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and to make all school staff eligible.
"America needs a comprehensive plan that prioritizes those who work in our schools and broadly communicates the importance of getting vaccinated," said Chiefs for Change CEO Mike Magee.
In a Jan. 12 readout of a White House meeting with governors, U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said efforts are underway to expand vaccine administration nationwide and that vaccine supplies are ahead of demands. President-elect Joe Biden has said that in his first 100 days in office, he wants to reopen a majority of schools and provide 100 million vaccinations.
Today, I'm announcing key COVID-19 priorities for the first 100 days of my administration:
- Everyone wears a mask
- 100 million vaccinations
- Reopen the majority of schools
With these steps, we can change the course of the disease and change life in America for the better.
— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) December 8, 2020
The superintendents participating at the Chiefs for Change press conference said vaccinating school employees quicker will help build confidence that the vaccines are safe and that school buildings can fully open as long as other mitigation efforts are in place. The use of school buildings and the assistance of trained school nurses could even contribute to a community's efforts to distribute vaccines, some administrators said.
"We must prioritize our public school teachers and staff for this vaccine, our schools are essential to the function of our economy and if we're serious about opening our economy, we cannot do that without fully opening our schools," Runcie said.
Susan Enfield, superintendent of Highline Public Schools in Burien, Washington, said rapid distribution of vaccines and clear communication would help tamp down employees' stress.
"We are facing a lot of fear and anxiety, understandably so, from teachers and staff in our district about our plans to return on March 1," Enfield said. "They obviously would like to know when they will be eligible for the vaccine, and I don't have a good answer for them there, because right now I don't think our state has a good answer."
For their part, school systems are trying to be communicative and transparent with their communities about vaccinations for employees and the safety protocols for reopening school buildings. "We as school districts [are] ready to be part of the solution," said Pedro Martinez, superintendent of the San Antonio Independent School District in Texas.
For example, Martinez said he has communicated to staff the expectation that children might not receive vaccinations until after this calendar year. "Ensuring that our frontline workers, which includes our teachers and school staff, [receive vaccinations] so that their anxiety is low, that is what's going to help this," Martinez said.

Due Papi, Due Domande Impellenti, Una Risposta urgente.
by Marco Tosatti
Dear Friends and enemies of Stilum Curiae: a friend of our community, Sergio Russo, author of the book about which about which we spoke some time ago, Sei tu quello o dobbiamo aspettarne un altro? (Are you the one or should we expect another?), has sent us a reflection which seems to us particularly interesting and stimulating on the strange situation in which we we are living, and about which we have spoken in recent days. Have a good read!
Two Impelling Questions
which necessitate an urgent answer
by Sergio Russo
The first is: "Is Pope Francis a pope in every way, or not?"
The second, which is consequent upon the first, is: "Is Pope Benedict XVI still the pope, or not?"
I offer my personal contribution to the present debate, taking occasion also from the recent intervention by the Mons. Athanasius Schneider (dated Feb. 28, 2020) published originally in English at the site LIfeSite News, and also in French translation on the blog, Le Blog de Jeanne Smits.
Therefore, I will list here simply a series of facts, and not of argumentations, leaving it to the Reader to form his own opinion on the matter, knowing well, however, that contra factum non valet argumentum (against a fact no argument is valid).
· Both academics and experts of things theological, as well as simple faithful, have noted how, from the date of March 13, 2013, even unto today, there has been created an unheard of situation, never before happening in the two thousand year history of the Church: the co-existence and co-habitation in the Vatican of two popes.
· All of these, however, know well that the expression, "pope emeritus", plays on the congruence/assonance of "Bishop Emeritus" and "Cardinal Emeritus", and that, besides, it is not ordained by any canon of ecclesiastical law, neither past nor present …
Moreover, it is to be noted – and here it basically returns to the same univocity which occurs in effect in the principle — just as there is, thus, no "priest emeritus", so also, both the academic and the faithful have always known (but perhaps today the way to understand things has changed?) that there absolutely is no other kind of pope, neither Emeritus nor Presiding, and more so, and this by "una contraddizione, che nol consente … (a contradiction which does not consent to it)", as Dante would say, since — and all believing Catholics have always held this as valid — the pope is the symbol and guarantor of unity in the Catholic Church, and She is one Body (though Mystical, but a true body), which cannot have but one sole Head!
Therefore, not a two-headed Body, which would be a monstrosity, and neither a headless body, which would instead be a deficiency: as a matter of fact, one alone is the Christ, one alone is the Church, one alone the Faith, one alone the Vicar of Christ and one alone the Head of the Church …. and this is what the two-thousand year Magisterium of the Church has always affirmed, without the least hesitation!
· Pope Francis, on the one hand would be the pope in every way, since he was licitly elected by all the Cardinals, united in a lawful Conclave (and which consequently is indubitable)
· On the other hand, we are given to know that the election of Pope Francis (and this is also indubitable) might not be equally valid, since according to a declaration — never denied — of the now late Belgian Cardinal Godfried Dannels, present in his book-biography, which reports the admissions of the prelate made to the journalists, J. Mettepenningen and K. Schelkens, the said Cardinal revealed to them that a group of Cardinals and Bishops (to which he also belonged) worked for years to prepare for the election of J. M. Bergoglio, seeing that all of these porporati were opponents of Joseph Ratzinger: it was, in fact, a group which was kept secret, which the same Cardinal Danneels defined as "a mafia club, which bore the name of St. Gall".
And this type of agreement, according to the Apostolic Constitution of Saint John Paul II, Universi Dominic Gregis, which regulates the "vacancy of the Apostolic See and the election of the Roman Pontiff", falls under a latae sententiae excommunication, as is clearly affirmed in nn. 77, 81, and 82:
« Confirming also the prescriptions of our Predecessors, I prohibit anyone, even if he is marked with the dignity of the Cardinalate, to make agreements, while the Pope is alive and without having consulted him, about the election of His Successor, or promise votes, or take decisions in this regard in private meetings » (n.79);
« The Cardinal Electors are to abstain, moreover, from every form of vote-canvassing, agreements, promises or other pledges of any kind, which can constrain them to give or deny their vote to one or another. If such in reality would happen, even if under the obligation of a vow, I decree that such a pledge be null and invalid and that no one is bound to observe it; and from this moment I impose the excommunication latae sententiae upon the transgressors of this prohibition.» (n.81);
« Equally, I forbid to the Cardinals to make, before an election, formal agreements, whether to receive pledges of common agreement, obliging themselves to put them into effect in the case that one of them be elevated to the Pontificate. Even these promises, as much as they might be made, even under the obligation of an oath, I declare null and invalid » (n.82).
· It is good to repeat that the "Renunciation" of Benedict XVI (according to his own admission) was truly made in full awareness and without any constraint … and yet that such a "renunciation" cannot be held to be truly such, since (and this is the seventh one which has occurred in the course of the two thousand years of Church history) all those who did renounce the papacy afterwards returned to their prior status as before thier election: and hence he who was a Bishop or Cardinal, returned to being a Bishop or Cardinal … he who was before a hermit, returned to be a hermit … (if one remembers the events of Pope Celestine V and Pietro da Morrone!), and hence none remained pope (not even an "emeritus", or any other kind), by continuing to wear the white cassock, by maintaining the papal coat of arms, by signing wtih the name of the Pontiff, etc..
· Hence, just as, if one must believe that Benedict XVI posited his "renunciation" in total autonomy and independence … so and equally, one must believe in what He himself declared: "… When, on April 19 nearly 8 years ago I accepted to assume the petrine ministry … from that moment on I was engaged always and for always by the Lord … The "always" is also a "for always", there is no longer a return to the private: My decision to renounce the active exerciste of the ministry, does not revoke this " (Benedict XVI, Wednesday General Audience of Feb. 27, 2013, Piazza S. Petro).
And hence, through his own same admission, Benedict XVI is always and still pope, whether others say so or not.
Therefore, in this case more than ever, there is required by all a firm intellectual coherence: if we ought to believe and hold as true the words of the Holy Father about His own renunciation, we ought, on the other hand and equally, believe and hold as true the just mentioned words pronounced by Benedict XVI, which affirm that he remains still and always pope!
· In conclusion, how can one explain, then, such an apparent and present unresolved situation in the Church … what, in substance, ought we hold to have clear ideas and not to let ourselves be overwhelmed, even us, by such a contemporary "confusion"?
The solution is supplied us both by the Catechism of the Catholic Church and the Virgin Mary, Mother of the Church, but as something requiring of us the highest attention and correct discernment ….
It is Our Lady Herself, in fact, who asks us to pay attention to Her words, left in our own days at Fatima, in which She speaks, both of the Holy Father, and of a Bishop dressed in white.
The Divine Providence has also arranged, also in our own days, that Pope John Paul II elevated to the honors of the altar the Blessed Ann Catherine Emmerich, making in this way known to all believers her singular visions, especailly those in which she saw "the Church of the two popes", the Church of always, faithful to the Magisterium, at whose head is the Holy Father,and another "new" church: big, strange and extravagant … (and, moreover, that the warnings, in part from the Mother of God are truly very many: the Miraculous Medal, La Salette, Fatima, Garabandal, the Marian Movement of Priests and many, many others …).
And, at last, the Catechism of the Catholic Church (in nn. 675-677), in which it informs, that, in our own days, all the faithful will be called to confront a "final test", capable of shaking the faith of many believers, since in it there will be revealed the "mystery of iniquity", able to provide an apparent solution to contemporary men, under the form of a religious impostiture, and it will be then that we will have to decide on which side to stand: whether with the Anti-Christ (the Anti-Church and the Anti-Gospel, as even John Paul II was wont to say), though this at the cost of apostasy from the Truth, in joining in such a manner the "new church", great and lauded by the world, as ecological and ecumenical, which concerns itself primarily with the poor … or if we would remain with the Church of always, even if it is today seen in a bad light by the world, which reputs Her as integralist and fundamentalist, to remain with the holy Magisterium, held even today as antiquated, and faithful to the Gospel of Christ, the one and true God, our Savior and Redeemer: "Whom we hold most dear!"

Of course I believe Pope Benedict.
God bless and keep him.
jorgecerra says:
The only living Vicar of Christ is Pope Benedict XVI, the other is the Vicar of Pachamama.
Tereze Avila says:
O, how good is to be a humble of heart and believe Jesus instead of human intelligence! Jesus answered this question long time ago through his prophets:
1. "After Pope Benedict, you will be led by Me, from the Heavens." https://fatherofloveandmercy.wordpress.com/2012/05/07/many-popes-have-been-prisoners/
2. "This is the final battle. My Vicar has fallen. My Church will fall, but soon it will rise again" https://fatherofloveandmercy.wordpress.com/2013/02/14/this-is-the-final-battle-my-vicar-has-fallen-my-church-will-fall-but-soon-it-will-rise-again/
3. "My Holy Vicar has been forced into this action and will suffer greatly as a result. Masonry has infiltrated My Church on earth …" https://fatherofloveandmercy.wordpress.com/2013/02/13/masonry-has-infiltrated-my-church-on-earth-and-soon-the-schism-as-foretold-will-create-division-and-disquiet-amongst-my-faithful-servants/
4. " My last True Pope. He, who was maliciously and deliberately plotted against, has been treated just as I, Jesus Christ, was beaten and scourged. They will now try to kill him, just as they killed Me. They will say that he was guilty of a crime of which he is totally innocent."
" I cry tears for My innocent, beloved last Pope on earth, Benedict XVI, chosen by Me to lead My Church during the last days. "
https://fatherofloveandmercy.wordpress.com/2013/02/19/they-will-say-that-he-was-guilty-of-a-crime-of-which-he-is-totally-innocent/
5. And the best is also this: PROTESTANT PASTOR informed BY JESUS that "pope" Francis is a biblical FALSE PROPHET. He officially said this on american TV:
GOD TOLD US!!! Only theologians and biblical scholars have no clue that pope Benedict the XVI is an ONLY TRUE POPE!!! Francis is a SCAM… masonic scam…
thecatholicfamilynextdoor says:
If our Holy Father Benedict XVI, and those Bishops in communion with him, were to do The Consecration of Russia to Our Blessed Mother's Immaculate Heart, exactly as Our Blessed Mother requested, would that not separate the counterfeit church, from Christ's One, Holy, Catholic, And Apostolic Church, outside of which, there is no Salvation, due to The Unity Of The Holy Ghost, and would there not be Peace in Christ's Church due to our desire to uphold Christ's Eucharistic Prayer?

Lindsey Graham Grows A Pair & Turns On Donald Trump
In the strange political world of the Donald Trump party politics, Republicans appear to be frozen in a thick opaque coat of silence. When the president was investigated, tried, and convicted of impeachment, only one senator squeezed out along the edge to speak against POTUS. The former presidential candidate Mitt Romney (R-UT) knew he would suffer the consequences. Yet, something has changed.
When Trump accused President Barack Obama of a crime punishable by death, he took a step too close to the edge of the ledge. That tapping sound everyone hears is Republicans chiseling cracks into their coat of silence. This is what happened.
POTUS accused Obama in a Christian Broadcasting Network interview Monday:
'It's treason. Look, when I came out a long time ago, I said they've been spying on my campaign. I said they've been taping, and that was in quotes, meaning a modern day version of taping, it's all the same thing. But a modern day version. But they've been spying on my campaign.'
Trump's defenders usually hand him the "ignorance" excuse. In this instance, though, the president clearly understood he knew the traditional punishment for traitors — death. He said, according to The Vanity Fair's The Hive:
'I want to know who's the person who gave the whistle-blower the information because that's close to a spy … You know what we used to do in the old days when we were smart with spies and treason, right? We used to handle it a little differently than we do now.'
Trump continued, according to CNN:
'If it was the opposite, two years ago, 25 people would have been convicted and they would be sent to jail for 50 years. And by the way, if it were 100 years ago, or 50 years ago, they would have been executed, but we're in a different time. We're in a different time. You understand what I mean by that. They spied on the opposing party's campaign and we caught them. I just hope I get tremendous evangelical Christian support.'
Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) is up for reelection in November and may lose his seat. He said, according to The POLITICO:
'I don't think that President Obama committed treason.'
The Constitution defines treason very narrowly:
'Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.'
The longtime friend of Senator John McCain (R-AZ) Lindsey Graham (R-SC) slid right up to the new president, became his minion. He even refused to defend his friend against Trump. McCain could not defend himself, because he died of brain cancer. It was enough to make the man from Arizona haunt the South Carolina senator.
Yet, Graham said in response to reporters questions:
'I don't know what he's talking about. I don't have any evidence to believe he committed treason.'
Graham, a retired U.S. Air Force Reserve colonel, continued saying that he had to "know more about the facts:"
'I don't make accusations like that until I know more about the facts. I don't have any evidence to believe [Obama] committed treason, but I do believe what happened after the election with surveilling General Flynn was very problematic and I'd like to know more about it. I understand President Trump's frustration, but be careful what you wish for. Just be careful what you wish for.'
White House officials sent out people to say that the president had been joking. It did not sound like a joke, and Trump spoke perhaps the truest words of his presidency. He told reporters on Tuesday:
'I don't kid.'
Another senator with a seat in play, Susan Collins (R-ME) has recently become much more critical of the president:
'[O]bviously, he shouldn't have said that.'
Trump spoke about how the U.S. Connecticut attorney John Durham probed into how the Russia investigation had been implemented. Durham also looked into whether there was "enough evidence to indict former Obama administration officials:" An unsmiling Trump continued:
'I never met Durham because I want to stay out of it, because otherwise it's going to look political. Let's see what'
Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) laughed at the question when he was asked about POTUS joking:
'It's a silly, comedic thing, and you guys got to stop taking it all so seriously. I don't think the former president committed treason.'
A staunch Trump supporter, Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) commented:
'I've got more important things to worry about.'
Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) has been investigating the Obama White House's actions between the time Trump was elected and when he took office, from November 2016 to January 2017:
'The president speaks for himself. I'm looking at the corruption with the transition process, which I think is evidently true. And we just need to figure out all that did happen so that the American people understand it, so hopefully it'll never happen again. I'm not going to respond to what the president said.'
The Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) faces a powerful opponent in his upcoming November race. The self-described Grim Reaper said he was the one who stood at the door of the Senate to catch all the bills the House sent over said:
'Every week, you all try to get me into a running commentary on the president's comments about a variety of different things.'

The Giving Tree Meets the Demanding We
The Giving Tree is a children's book written by Shel Silverstein and first published in 1964. It received a mixed reception with religious organizations lauding it as "it was hailed as a parable on the joys of giving." while others described it as "one of the most divisive books in children's literature" (Elizabeth Bird).
It is the story of a young boy and a tree in its prime. The "boy" grows old and the tree is slowly reduced to a stump long before its time. The interaction is always the same….. The boy arrives and enjoys the tree. This "enjoyment" is often damaging to the tree but the tree appears to be accepting of this. The tree is "happy" with the boy's company.
Read, digest and read this small section again before you move on.
"…And after a long time the boy came back again.
"I am sorry, Boy," said the tree, "but I have nothing left to give you-
My apples are gone."
"My teeth are too weak for apples," said the boy.
"My branches are gone," said the tree.
"You cannot swing on them-"
"I am too old to swing on branches," said the boy.
"My trunk is gone," said the tree.
"You cannot climb-"
"I am too tired to climb," said the boy.
"I am sorry," sighed the tree.
"I wish that I could give you something… but I have nothing left. I am an old stump. I am sorry…"
"I don't need very much now," said the boy, "just a quiet pleace to sit and rest. I am very tired."
"Well," said the tree, straightening herself up as much as she could,
"well, an old stump is a good for sitting and resting. Come, Boy, sit down. Sit down and rest."
And the boy did.
And the tree was happy."
Shel Silverstein – The Giving Tree
What do you see here?
Some see a religious message with the joy of giving (usually giving to the various churches where you play the role of the tree)
Some see a friendship between tree and boy and how that friendship wanes (from boy to tree) as the boy ages and joy is replaced by avarice.
Some see satire in the work that cannot then be aimed at children (or the many adults that do not recognise satire)and point to "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift as a pre-existing example of the underlying message.
Some see it as an environmental message with humanity stripping away nature, killing off species and, eventually, the planet.
Some see it as sexual exploitation…….
Some see the parent – child relationship with the tree as an emblem of a mother's love.
"Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree , which has constantly been reprinted since 1964 and sells so well that its publisher has never even bothered to bring it out in paperback. People assume it glorifies love and generosity, but just think for a moment about the messages it gives children. A tree called "she" is its title character. Under "her" branches a little boy is playing. His only communication with the tree throughout the book is to ask her to give up something for him. He asks her to sacrifice, in turn, her apples, her branches, and her trunk, until finally she has become a lifeless stump. As the tree acquiesces uncomplainingly to each of the child's demands, she is described as "happy." Moreover, while she is being depleted, with each turn of the page, the boy grows older. Always referred to as "boy," he turns eventually into a wizened old man. Despite their parallel outward changes, the relationship between the two remains perfectly static. Totally self-effacing, the "mother" treats her "son" as if he were a perpetual infant, while he behaves toward her as if he were frozen in time as an importunate baby. This overrated picture book thus presents as a paradigm for young children a callously exploitative human relationship—both across genders and across generations. It perpetuates the myth of the selfless, all-giving mother who exists only to be used and the image of a male child who can offer no reciprocity, express no gratitude, feel no empathy-an insatiable creature who encounters no limits for his demands."
Ellen Handler Spitz
The Giving Tree Versus Greed
For me, it is the story of the greed of humankind. Of the exploitation in general. Exploitation of the planet, of the poor and needy, and of victims various. Some say that it has always been this way but that may have been true for a minority……. those on positions of power.
#trueqigong
Now we see this avarice, lack of empathy and lack of respect growing exponentially. "To hell with the rest of the planet………… Look at my selfies and congratulate me!" "If I cannot gain from you, you are of no use to me, no interest to me!" "Me, me, me!" This is now seen from the top down…….. or from the bottom up with the likes of Donald Trump becoming an idol for those who only care for themselves.
Nature keeps giving because that is what it does. It will continue to do so but, and this is a big but, like the tree, nature will outlive man. The resources that we need for survival will run out long before we can cause the extinction of life on earth. I, for one, do not have a problem with that.

Sarah Gailey on the Horror and Wonder of Self-Reflection
In Conversation with Rob Wolf on the New Books Network Podcast
By New Books Network
Where does DNA end and the soul begin?
It's a question that Evelyn Caldwell, the brilliant genetic researcher at the center of Sarah Gailey's The Echo Wife, never pauses to ask as she develops her award-winning technique for human cloning. To Evelyn, clones are tools, created for a specific practical purpose.
"Clones aren't people, legally speaking. They don't have rights. They're specimens," Evelyn explains. "They're temporary, and when they stop being useful, they become biomedical waste. They are disposable."
Her attitudes change when her ex-husband, Nathan, uses the Caldwell Method to create Martine—a new wife scaffolded from Evelyn's DNA but designed to be more docile. Martine willingly gets pregnant, whereas Evelyn never wanted a child. Not surprisingly, Evelyn is horrified by Martine's existence—not only because Nathan mined her DNA without her permission and built a twin who is in many ways her opposite, but because Martine's pregnancy should be impossible (clones are supposed to be sterile).
Clones' "inability to produce children is something that Evelyn uses to help maintain a sense of them being inhuman," Gailey says. "So Martine's pregnancy … poses a huge threat to all of Evelyn's work."
The pregnancy also poses a threat to Evelyn's sense of self as she and Martine join forces to deal with multiple crises—murder and betrayal foremost among them.
From the episode:
Rob Wolf: The Caldwell Method can turn a sample of DNA into a complete human, going from (I love this phrase) "sample to sentience in 100 days." Can you describe the method and give a sense of what the prevailing morality is around cloning in Evelyn's world, which sounds very much like our world, except for the human cloning part?
Sarah Gailey: The Caldwell Method is this idea that you can sequence someone's DNA and then go boop and you've got a complete adult version of them in a big tube full of goo. This is my favorite cloning method in science fiction. The tube full of goo where you get the opportunity to have someone floating in there completely raw and new. I love the combination in that of adulthood and nascent infancy.
There's a lot in this book about motherhood and pregnancy. Evelyn has completely externalized that entire process in the goo. She's developed a synthetic amniotic fluid, which does exist in the world that you and I inhabit, although it's pretty different from what's going on in this book, because it's still in the research stages as we're recording this. She's also got flesh pulp that eventually turns into the person. The way that I wrote this is intentionally very visceral. I love horror, and I love writing horror.
As for the morality around cloning, it's extremely capitalist. Evelyn doesn't really have a personal economic philosophy. She doesn't necessarily think about the morals of the economy so much as she thinks about what the current system she's working in can get her if she knows how to work it the right way.
She works for a private lab and always has to be justifying her work, but to her, the work is its own justification. She's like, "I'm an amazing genius, and I can do amazing scientific things. How is that not enough for you people?" But in this world, the one that we live in and the world of the book, oftentimes—too often—you have to justify innovation by providing a way that it can profit someone, a way that it can move units. And so Evelyn develops clones to be used as tools—they're used for organ harvesting and transplant, they're used for body-doubles for people like a politician who needs to go somewhere and have a body-double available to draw fire from potential assassins. They're completely disposable.
RW: Evelyn's attitudes do start to change. She starts to see herself differently in some ways through her reflection in Martine.
SG: She is enduring the absolute horror and wonder of constant self-reflection. She is forced into a position that I think any of us would be in when faced with a clone of ourselves that's designed to have an opposite personality. Martine's personality is defined in every way as an answer to the flaws Nathan sees in Evelyn. Every place where he thinks she has a shortcoming, he's fixed it in Martine.
And so Evelyn has to ask herself the question, "If I like something about Martine, does that mean I hate it in myself? If I hate something in Martine, does that mean I love it in myself? What aspects of my personality do I actually value and want to keep, and which ones do I despise?" Evelyn's sense of self is very confident, but also very honest. She knows that she has flaws and shortcomings. She just thinks that they are a perfect part of the constellation that makes her up and sees no need to change because her personality has gotten her where she is.
But when she sees Martine, she sees this whole other way she could be, and there are some things about Martine that she really likes. But, of course, if you really like something in someone who's designed to be the opposite of you, you're forced to look back at yourself in dismay. And that's not something everyone really knows how to do.
Sarah Gailey's debut novella, River of Teeth, was a Hugo and Nebula award finalist. In 2018, they won the Hugo Award for Best Fan Writer. They are the author of seven novels.

Forest Park East? Yes, please!
Metro is working with the City of Gresham to create a network of trails that will better connect existing ones in the East Buttes area to the Springwater Trail and to residents south in Damascus and Happy Valley. If this and other trail expansions go according to plan, the East Buttes network could also link to Troutdale and the Columbia River Gorge. And that could mean great things for the local economy. This is exactly the kind of environmental project we need funding to support and build.

Margaret Thatcher's death: Newspapers pay respect while social media dances on her grave
Popular opinion, at least that expressed on Twitter, seems out of sync with the media
Oscar Quine
(Rex Features)
National mourning is a funny thing; often the nation isn't that involved. The night of the Queen Mother's passing, a TV journalist sent to the West End to gauge 'public sentiment' reported that undeterred party-goers were evidence of the Blitz spirit. And while there's no doubting Diana's death touched a nerve, episodes of Coronation Street have had more viewers than her funeral did. The argument being that, perhaps, away from the gates of Buckingham Palace, people were busy getting on with their lives. With the death of Margaret Thatcher, social media opens us up to the nation's opinions in all their funny, offensive glory.
After the news broke, a clear celebratory current was quick to emerge in response to, essentially, the death of an 87-year-old woman. There were parties, there's a Spotify playlist, and #nostatefuneral started trending. There are the predictable one-liners. "I've just seen the plans for Margaret Thatcher's grave… Its beautiful – but I think they should have made the dance floor bigger." But these aren't throw away comments - they are a distinct strand of public sentiment.
Nick Davies, the journalist who broke the phone hacking scandal, noted in his book Flat Earth News that big deaths lead newspapers to revert to a simple formula: "the nation is mourning; everybody must mourn; that's the story… The facts are forced to fit the feeling".
With the death of the Queen Mother, there was no sea of flowers outside Buckingham Palace and journalists elevated the only crying lady in the vicinity to a momentary national celebrity. Even the Observer, not known for its monarchism, cleared the first ten pages and ran the headline 'The Queen Mother's death robs the nation of its favourite grandmother'. And who remembers where they were the day she died?
Like others tasked with putting their politics aside, Michael White in the Guardian leads with Thatcher as inspiring female figure. Paul Routledge in The Mirror is more provocative, calling for 'an inquest' on her life and influence and stating that half the nation will be celebrating. The Liverpool Echo is damning, accusing her of indifference and ignorance to the city's needs. But their report on the Hillsborough tragedy, while a statement in itself, only goes as far as saying her role was 'unclear'. There is a greater diversity of feeling in the opinion pages, but it comes nowhere close to the passionate commentary on social media.
A Twitter search for 'Liverpool' and 'Thatcher' returns little other than joy, anger and hatred; it is apparent the shadow of Hillsborough still hangs heavy amongst the people. "What a great day in Liverpool! Margaret Thatcher is dead! Justice for the 96! #Weregonnahaveaparty." And a lot, lot worse.
These aren't the only responses, of course. There's indifference. There's a kickback and calls for humanity. There are jokes about Iron Man. There's concern for Cher's well-being (thanks to #nowthatchersdead). There's a push to see 'Ding Dong the Witch is Dead' to number one. But there is little in the way of compliments of her tenure.
Social media users are free to indulge their uglier impulses - spite, bad humour, moralising - with little policing (except if you're the manager of Oddbins suspended for trying to flog champagne off the back of her death).
Meanwhile, it is newspapers' ability to thrash a coherent and respectful line from the contention that sets them apart from the noise of social media. But in this new age, they must be careful of their conservative impulse to toe the line in times of crisis.
While dancing on another's grave should never be an option when it comes to public sentiment, mainstream news outlets need to make sure they're tuned into the right music.

Sei-katsu-sha currencies will be inspired by people thinking creatively about what types of money it would be handy to have. One day, we predict, there will not just be one sei-katsu-sha currency but many of them, and multiple sei-katsu-sha currency blocs will coexist in society, including one based on the existing Japanese yen.
Here we share our ideas on four sei-katsu-sha currency types that may emerge in the future.
The same survey respondents were asked two-choice questions about how they see themselves now and how they see themselves a decade hence. Some 60 percent answered that what they rely on for a living at present is money, but roughly half answered that what they will rely on for a living a decade hence will be something else.
It seems, then, that increasingly people will come to consider non-monetary assets such as skills, trust, and personal relationships to be more valuable than money.
• If your trust or skills are in demand, you will be able to offer them in exchange for what you want.
• People's trust and skills will be quantified and publicly traded on various platforms.
Some 60 percent of respondents say they currently want to spend money on themselves, but almost half say they will want to spend it on someone else a decade hence.
It seems, then, that people will come to find greater meaning in entrusting their money to someone else to make use of than in spending it themselves.
• Systems for matching sponsors and recipients on the cloud will become more sophisticated.
• You will be able keep track of how your money is spent in real time and enjoy the experience vicariously.
Some 60 percent of respondents currently enjoy just the goods or services they acquire in exchange for money, but ten years from now 40 percent say they will also enjoy the process of exchange itself, up from 30 percent today.
Money originated as a medium to exchange for whatever you wanted, but in the future some people will likely use it to enjoy the process of exchange itself.
• Have fun decorating the money you send or attaching a message to it.
• Transferring money to someone will be like a game or a way to express your feelings.
Currently the number of respondents who find more pleasure in acquiring goods and services by spending money is roughly even with the number who find more pleasure in strengthening personal relationships by exchanging money. But ten years from now the majority will find more pleasure in the latter.
One day, it seems, many people will be attracted by the qualities that distinguish a particular type of currency and form bonds with others who possess it.
• Currencies that circulate in specific communities among people with shared values.
• Each will have its own unique rules and design so that users identify more strongly with it.
Here are several existing examples of currency innovations that hint at what the future holds.
Timebank is an app that allows people to buy and sell time in ten-second units. You can ask someone for business advice or a dinner date for the length of time you've purchased. The cost per time unit varies depending on the seller's skills and trustworthiness, and it fluctuates. Instead of using the time you've bought, you can save it up and sell it to someone else; thus people's time circulates on the market.
The Swedish cash transfer app Swish lets you send money peer to peer for free. Now a kind of game has arisen using this app. When User A sends one krona to User B, User B sends five krona back, then User A sends a further ten krona, and so forth. This Swish one-upmanship, as it might be called, is simply a way to have fun sending money back and forth between friends.
The city of Kokubunji in Tokyo has a community currency created by residents called the Bunji (from Kokubunji). The unique thing about it is that when you spend it, you're required to write a message on it to the recipient. Thus you can express your gratitude by the very act of paying. The Bunji continues to evolve. Not only is it used by people who live in the area, it's also used by others who sympathize with the idea behind it.
This study is based on the following online surveys.


I think I did everything right and everything through the installation seemed to go smoothly. When I go to boot into the Mac OS I can get to the GUI where it prompts for the region you are in, I'm assuming that's the language screen that this article talks about getting stuck at? I added the -s as a boot flag and it does bring me to the root terminal but I'm not able to add an text to it as the article details. I couldn't figure out how to edit the Clover Config.plist either.
I'm using a MSI laptop with an Intel i7-7820hk CPU and a GTX 1070. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Millwall land grab inquiry must not be a whitewash and must mean game over for deal
Lewisham Lib Dems welcome that fact that Lewisham council has finally announced an 'internal inquiry' into the decision-making around the Millwall land grab but want to be sure this will not be a whitewash behind closed doors.
This announcement of an inquiry only comes after a number of revelations have been reported in The Guardian newspaper. As a direct result, both the Charity Commission and Sport England have announced their own investigations into various aspects of this process.
We are concerned that this 'internal inquiry' should not be conducted in secret, behind closed doors and while the discredited deal is still on the table.
Therefore we call on Lewisham Council to:
Ensure that the Millwall CPO is scrapped while this inquiry takes place and no new regeneration plan for this land is hatched without full and open consultation.
Conduct the inquiry quickly, in public and is independent from the council with an external Chair appointed to lead it.
Include the results of other bodies' investigations within the inquiry's evidence and conclusions.
Publish the results in full and any evidence of wrongdoing that should be uncovered is reported to all relevant authorities.
Include in the inquiry's recommendations methods for improving the council's decision-making processes, including not having decisions made by so few politicians.
Bobby Dean, Lewisham Deptford parliamentary spokesman for the Lib Dems, commented:
"We and the local community have already blown the whistle on this dodgy deal, now this inquiry must be allowed to get to the bottom of what our council's been doing. It should've been game-over for this landgrab long ago, so there can be a regeneration plan that involves local people and Millwall."
