I'm not sure that everyone struggles with pride in exactly the same way and I don't for a minute think that pride will be the key struggle for everyone. But I am aware that many people I know, both those I know personally and those I know through their writings, struggle with pride. Perhaps it is a sin of particular temptation to those in leadership and perhaps it is also a particular sin of evangelicals. We can so quickly become proud of our precise formulations of doctrine and correct handling of scripture, proud of our carefully lived lives and attention to detail in such things as Sunday observance and tithing, but pride is so thoroughly out of place for people who have been rescued not because they were good but because they were dead in sin and unable to save themselves. Our pre-Christian lives weren't much to boast about and to honest our post-conversion lives are still pretty messy so in the end it's all about grace. And yet even though we know that still be can be quickly led into proud feelings about what we do or what we understand or what we have achieved.
Strangely hand in hand with that often comes feelings of despair. We oscillate from feelings of being really useful and good and effective to feeling rubbish and worthless and exceedingly sinful. Perhaps we let God down in some way or we catch a glimpse of ourselves in a spiritual mirror somehow (a conversation, a passage of the Bible, a moment of reflection) and what we see is not pleasant, and so we are plunged into black feelings of depression about the huge gap between what we are called to be and what we are. While it may not be a great place to find yourself in, oscillating between pride and despair, it is not unusual.
The solution is Jesus. I know it sounds like a Sunday School answer but it's the right answer. Reading through the Gadsby's hymn collection reminds me how powerfully the people who wrote these hymns felt their own sinfulness but they also knew what it was to turn to Christ in that. They knew the dangers of pride but they also knew what to do about it: turn to Jesus. They knew black thoughts of despair but their medicine was Jesus, the bread of life, the living water, the loving shepherd, the sympathetic high priest.
Red Mountain Music have some new music for this old hymn. You can find it here.
Thankyou for your helpful comments on pride and despair. The hymn by John Berridge is clear and also profound. I like the tune too!


The Gold Circle Frame Earrings are part of DSNU's "Fragments" jewelry collection of one-of-a-kind pieces which combine the purity of the curved line with textures made from breaking porcelain into pieces, creating a balance between rational and spontaneity, or the perfection of geometry and beauty provided by the imperfection of fracture. Each piece of the collection is uniquely handmade, therefore contains textures of an unrepeatable landscape.
Due to the characteristics of artisanal production and the design process, the size and contour of the piece may slightly vary, making each piece of jewelry slightly different compared to the pictures.

These earrings are part of the Nudos de Tierra collection, or "Knots of Earth". These pieces combine the rationality and expressiveness: the geometric and minimal lines are manifested in the metal, while the curve and organic lines appears in the ceramic material. The brass structures are rigid, while the interlocking clay rings provide movement to the pieces and offer the possibility of changing their position. The static and the mobile concepts are complemented creating a visual language of contrasts.

Awards, awards, awards. Enough, already!
Last night was the someteenth annual SAG Awards. My dear friend Janet is a member of SAG and she gets to vote every so-many years (though she never tells anyone who she's voted for). As an actor, myself, I know how much more peer accolades can mean than those of family, friends and strangers. Make no mistake, acting is a blood-thirsty profession and every member of it has thought at least once, "I could've played it better!" -- By the way, if you are one of my actor friends who is reading this, don't even try and deny that statement, because you know it is true -- but I digress. In any event, to be told by another actor that you were the best this year, is probably the compliment you will remember above all others. There was a surprise, or two. I hadn't expected Meryl Streep to win (and neither had she, apparently). Sean Penn's win was good, though his speech was a little all over the place. The evening's funniest moment was the hilarious mock-argument between presenters Amy Pohler and John Krasinski:
When I was a kid, there were four Awards shows: The Tonys; The Emmy's; The Grammies and the only one that really mattered, The Oscars. That was it. Then, in the 80's, MTV created a new medium and eventually, their own awards, The Golden Astronaut. And suddenly, awards shows were everywhere and for everything (hell, even MTV created another one - The Golden Popcorn Box). There are even the "Anti-Oscars" -- The Golden Raspberries, given for the worst of films and performances. It is human nature to crave acknowledgement and praise, but the idea of awards for art seem to me to be comparing apples and oranges. I understand that prizes and awards increase the value of actors, directors, writers and myriad other folks. Wouldn't you want to hire some one who is perceived as "Best" in his or her field? Unfortunately, today's awards aren't always about who or what was truly "Best," but often more about who or what garnered more attention among an elite few.
In the end, it really doesn't matter who won what, but how much the audience responded to the product. making movies is a business, after all. The success of a business is based on how much it makes in profit. It seems to me, the "Best" movie is the movie that made the most money. It certainly performed the best, which means that more people saw it, than any other movie. If I were in the business of making movies, I'd be much happier with a billion dollars than a clump of gold-plated lead. You made the most? You win! Capitalism at it's finest.

Q: How to read all CSV files from google cloud storage location into a single pandas dataframe? I have gcs bucket and can list out all the files in the bucket using google colab like this:-
!gsutil ls gs://custom_jobs/python_test/

This lists out all the files which are:-
test_1.csv
test_2.csv

I can read a single file at a time like this:-
d = pd.read_csv('gs://custom_jobs/python_test/test_1.csv')

What I intend to do is read test_1.csv and test_2.csv in a single dataframe like we can do locally:-
import glob
files = glob.glob("/home/shashi/python_test/*.csv")

all_dat = pd.DataFrame()

for file in files:
  dat = pd.read_csv(file)
  all_dat = all_dat.append(dat, ignore_index=True)

How is this possible in google colab when my files are on google storage bucket?

A: Try using the ls command in gsutil
Ex:
import subprocess

result = subprocess.run(['gsutil', 'ls', 'gs://custom_jobs/python_test/*.csv'], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

all_dat = pd.DataFrame()
for file in result.stdout.splitlines():
    dat = pd.read_csv(file.strip())
    all_dat = all_dat.append(dat, ignore_index=True)

A: One simple solution might be:
from google.cloud import storage

bucket_name = "your-bucket-name"
all_dat = pd.DataFrame()

storage_client = storage.Client()

# Note: Client.list_blobs requires at least package version 1.17.0.
blobs = storage_client.list_blobs(bucket_name)

for blob in blobs:
    dat = pd.read_csv("gs://{}/{}".format(bucket_name, blob.name))
    all_dat = all_dat.append(dat, ignore_index=True)

A: One simple solution that I found was:-
files = !gsutil ls -r gs://custom_jobs/python_test/

Q: Quaternion and the closest point on the sphere I usung quaternion to rotate the sphere in 3d space.
Sphere is placed at p = (0, 0, 0)
The question is: how i can find the point and/or face closest to camera.

A: This is simple. A sphere has the nice property, that it is formed by the set of all points which distance from the center has a certain value (the radius).
In OpenGL we assume that the observer is located at the origin. Objects are placed in their individual coordinate space by means of a linear transformation (modelview). So all we must do is find the position of the observer in the local coordinate system of the sphere and normalize the vector toward the local space observer position toward unit length.
The transformation is the full modelview matrix MV. Your quaternion q can be mapped to a matrix R. Assuming that q, i.e. R define the rotation of the sphere within its own local frame, the total transformation toward view space becomes
p_view = MV · R · p_local

where p is the set of the sphere's points.
Hence the observer local to the sphere's frame reference is located at
o_local = inv(MV · R) · (0,0,0,1)

Last you've to rescale the local frame location vector toward the observer to the sphere's radius
o_direction_on_sphere = radious · o_local / len(o_local)

Erratum for the Perspective: "Imaging approaches to optimize molecular therapies" by R. Weissleder, M. C. Schwaiger, S. S. Gambhir, H. Hricak - December 14, 2016
Imaging, including its use for innovative tissue sampling, is slowly being recognized as playing a pivotal role in drug development, clinical trial design, and more effective delivery and monitoring of molecular therapies. The challenge is that, while a considerable number of new imaging technologies and new targeted tracers have been developed for cancer imaging in recent years, the technologies are neither evenly distributed nor evenly implemented. Furthermore, many imaging innovations are not validated and are not ready for widespread use in drug development or in clinical trial designs. Inconsistent and often erroneous use of terminology related to quantitative imaging biomarkers has also played a role in slowing their development and implementation. We examine opportunities for, and challenges of, the use of imaging biomarkers to facilitate development of molecular therapies and to accelerate progress in clinical trial design. In the future, in vivo molecular imaging, image-guided tissue sampling for mutational analyses ("high-content biopsies"), and noninvasive in vitro tests ("liquid biopsies") will likely be used in various combinations to provide the best possible monitoring and individualized treatment plans for cancer patients.

Note from the future: I wasn't sorry about this at all.
So, her brother did not leave on assignment after all.
No, no he did not.
I was sifting through my massive list of webcomics to read last night, with the intention of weeding them out a bit more–and then I got hooked on this one. The art is amazing, the characters are intriguing, and I love your sense of humour (in-story and out of story!). Don't know if I'll comment much, but I just wanted to let you know you've got one more dedicated reader.
Everything about this comic (seems like too small a word somehow) so far is marvelous; use of lighting, especially in previous 'sunny' pages, the soft texturing, the plotting and pacing (I'm a patient man if the story is good), but most especially the character expressions and personalities.
Danil wins this scene with his "spare me the inane commentary" look in panel 4, but Adriana's dry, sarcastic wit definitely resonates with me. Nicely done!

GEORGE KUBLER - Les sources écrites de la cosmogonie andine (pp. 9—21)
Written Sources on Andean Cosmogony
Mesoamerican and Andean theories of cosmogonic creation were anciently related as myths, and reunited after the Spanish conquest by accounts written between 1550 and 1633. Two groups separate about 1572: the earlier mentions only two creations, and a later one includes evolutionary schemes and systems of three, four and five creations like those of Mesoamerica. These literary traditions are more Spanish than Indian, but they reflect an underlying and ancient unity of Amerindian cosmogonic theories. The illustrations are taken from Mexican and Andean manuscripts and monuments.
ADAM S. LABUDA - Wort und Bild im späten Mittelalter am Beispiel des Breslauer Barbara-Altars (1447) (pp. 23—57)
On Text and Pictures in the Late Middle Ages from the Example of the Altar of St. Barbara in Wrocław (1447)
This article brings up the question of the relationship between pictorial and literary traditions from the example of the cycle on the altar in Wrocław (1447) depicting St. Barbara's life on earth as well as her going to heaven. How the pictorial legend existed on its own, as well as how the literary impulse influenced the tradition of the visual language of the picture – this is the general framework the detailed analysis works within. The legend found on the altar in Wrocław mainly comes from one no longer alive today and originating at the turn of the 14th to the 15th centuries from the Franco-Flemish legend of St. Barbara, which also influenced the form of the altars of Master Francke and of Gonzalo Perez. The creator of the altar in Wrocław who came to Silesia from the Upper Rheinland in this cycle made fragmentary modification at different levels of pictorial representations and these were dictated by reading the legends from the literature, among others the legends in manuscripts which, at the start of the 15th century, were in the Dominican Cloister in Wrocław.
W. R. REARICK - Observation on the Venetian Cinquecento in the Light of the Royal Academy Exhibition (pp. 59—75)
The exhibition The Genius of Venice held in the winter of 1983–1984 at the Royal Academy of Arts in London, was the largest and probably the last such show to be dedicated to the Venetian Cinquecento. Although some works were of questionable attribution and others, such as the paintings of the Brescia and Bergamo schools, seemed out of context there, the exhibition provided an impressive survey of the material, and the catalogue will remain an essential reference work. The present article is intended as a critical gloss on what might be regarded as useful additions and corrections to the catalogue, in particular for the Kingston Lacy Judgement of Solomon. Doubts arise over the practice of delegating the catalogue to an equipe of forty two scholars of variable expertise, and the final impression is that of a scatter-shot aggregation of mostly fine works without a presiding point of view.
ALESSANDRA OTTIERI - Laguna di Venezia, mare di Galilea: la Vocazione dei figli di Zebedeo di Marco Basaiti (pp. 77—89)
The Venetian Lagoon and the Sea of Galilee: The Calling of the Sons of Zebedee by Marco Basaiti
The canvas signed and dated 1510 is now in the Accademia in Venice. It was meant for the main altar of St. Andrea della Certosa in Venice and contains references to monastic traditions of the Carthusian order (the themes of the cage as volontary retreat bringing salva-tion, and of the imitiation of Christ by choosing martyrdom) as well as the election of the Carthusian Patriarch Antonio Suriano, the probable sponsor of the painting who wanted to re-spond by it to criticisms raised of his election and, as summarized in a letter from Blessed Paolo Giustiniano found in a monastery near Frascati. The Calling of the Sons of Zebedee shows how the humblest may be an example to their brothers even accepting responsibilities apparently in contradiction with their initial choice of solitude. The theme of the cage is also analyzed with reference to other examples found in the mosaic in the apse of St. Clement's Church in Rome and in other contemporary paintings of the Venetian school.
SAUL LEVINE - Michelangelo's Marble David and the Last Bronze David: The Drawings (pp. 91—120)
The discussion includes the drawings associated with the marble David and the lost bronze David. There is an occasional departure from conventionally accepted attributions to given projects. An example is the sketch of David and the head of Goliath on the well-known Louvre sheet, 714 recto, long connected with the lost bronze David, which is, instead, Michelangelo's first visualization of the marble David. A drawing, assigned by Hartt to St. Lorenzo, Florence, as a study for a sculptured St. Lawrence, is actually a drawing for the lost bronze David. Another drawing, traditionally accepted as a rendering of the Apollo Belvedere, is, instead, a fighting young David. Four other drawings have been reassigned, as applicable, to the two Davids. The drawings have been placed in the context of an iconographic consistency proceeding from a study of the political aspects of the marble David.
CHRISTOPH STÖCKER - Dürer, Celtis und der falsche Bischof Achatius. Zur Ikonographie von Dürers Marter der Zehntausend (pp. 121—137)
Dürer, Celtis and the So-called Bishop Achatius in Relation to the Iconography of Dürer's Martyrdom of the Ten Thousand
This article leads to the conclusion that what iconography manuals have called the theme «Achatius as Bishop» is a false interpretation originating from one Diptychon (Cologne, Wallraf-Richartz Museum Nr. 822). Rather according to mediaeval ecclesiastical literature it should be of Bishop Hermolaus, the Baptizer of the 10,000. He is mentioned by name in the official breviaries of the diocese of Bamberg already at the time of Dürer. The material gath-ered so far is therefore to be called «Bishop Hermolaus Baptizer of the Ten Thousand».
A correct identification requires that one understand Dürer's altarpiece The Martyrdom of the Ten Thousand (Vienna Kunsthistorisches Museum Nr. 835). It is connected with Dürer's stay in Venice (Hermolaus Epitaph in S. Simeone Maggiore) and with the place the picture was meant for (Hermolaus' reliques in the castle church in Wittemberg). In the painting the just deceased Konrad Celtis, in the main group in the middle points therefore to Hermolaus the baptizer of the 10,000 and in this way to the meaning of baptism. This is the hitherto un-known basic message of the work.
ELIZABETH HUTTON TURNER - Who is in the Brothel of Avignon? A Case for Context (pp. 139—157)
«Who is in the Brothel of Avignon?», a question inferred by the joking and play-acting in front of Pablo Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, provides a basis for an examination of its formal and symbolic possibilities. A re-examination of the familiar anecdotes, snapshots, sketches and quotations concerning the creation of the Demoiselles places the genesis of the painting squarely in the context of the Bateau-Lavoir where caricature in the tradition of Al-fred Jarry was the weapon of the avant-garde. Placed within the mocking arena of the brothel, Picasso's vocabulary of pose, gesture and expression calls into question the academic methods and sources of his chief rival, Henri Matisse. Also, correspondences between the Demoiselles and photos from L'Etude Academique, a periodical used by artists, students, and voyeurs, sheds new light on the riddle of the medical student and the sailor depicted in Picasso's original sketch.
KARSTEN HARRIES - Space, Place, and Ethos: Reflections on the Ethical Function of Architecture (pp. 159—165)
Building transforms space into place; establishing place, it articulates an ethos. Building thus has an ethical function. Today this function is threatened by the commitment to objectivity that has shaped modernity. If that commitment has brought a new freedom, it has also brought a loss of place. Such displacement breeds dreams of a more genuine dwelling. But, while we must recognize the legitimacy of such dreams, we should not sacrifice freedom to them. Man belongs to the earth and to the light. This twofold belonging is never without tension. Building can regain its ethical function only when it learns to preserve and articulate that tension. But to do so, it must first open itself to the ambiguous language of space and place.

Egypt's President Sisi Votes For The First Time In Parliamentary Elections
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi visited the district of Heliopolis in Cairo to participate in the second phase of Egypt's parliamentary elections.
The President's ballot marked his first ever vote in parliamentary elections as members of Egypt's military are not permitted to vote.
Cameras flanked the President as he entered the booth, with live television footage showing him greeting supporters and election booth officials.
Egypt's Prime Minister Sherif Ismail also cast his ballot shortly after the booths opened.
Voting for the second phase of elections kicked off a day earlier for Egyptians abroad, with more than 10,000 Egyptians voting by 2PM on Saturday, according to an elections official.
The first phase of elections saw 30,531 Egyptians abroad casting their votes. The turnout was touted as 'disappointing' by the media, as the number represented just 4.5 percent of the 680,000 registered Egyptian voters abroad.
A total of 28.2 million people are eligible to vote in Egypt's second phase of parliamentary elections. The second phase covers 13 governorates, including Cairo, Qalyubia, Daqahliyah, Menoufia, Gharbia, Kafr el-Sheikh, Sharqiya, Damietta, Port Said, Ismailia, Suez, North Sinai and South Sinai.

What is Xavier Uzomah?
You've probably heard a lot about Xavier Uzomah, but what's his real name? What is his net worth? Here's some information to get you started. You will also find out his ethnicity, relationship status, and career and net worth. Continue reading to learn more. And remember to check out his bio and photos to get a more complete picture.

his relationship status
His net worth
It is unclear whether Xavier Uzomah is of African descent or American. Many Nigerian first-generation players have come to America for college. The question is, how does Uzomah's ethnicity impact his success? Although it is hard to know for certain, it is clear that the young tight end's college experience is not lacking in talent and motivation.
Uzomah is African-American, which is why his father is American. He attended Auburn University and was a prized recruit while at North Gwinnett High School in Georgia. He was a tight end in the starting lineup and had 11 receptions. He was the one to catch the game-winning touchdown against Mississippi State during the SEC championship game.
The young athlete was born on January 14, 1993, in Suwanee, Georgia. He studied at Auburn University and went on to earn his MBA. His mother received her doctorate in education. His father is an Atlanta-based retired financial analyst. They have not been married. Their ethnicity is unknown as of this writing. Their children have yet to be born. Their parents were raised by a white American dad and an African mother.
C.J. Uzomah is an American football player who was drafted in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft. He played college football for Auburn University and became a popular player for the Tigers. He wore a number of high-profile jerseys during his time in college, including the number 87. He is 6'1″ tall and weighs in at 118 kg.
In addition to his ethnicity, Uzomah is a black American. He is the richest tight end in the NFL, as well as one of the most popular. His father, who was an Auburn University MBA graduate in May 2014 and his mother, a doctorate in education, are both alumni. Despite his high profile and fame, he still manages to stay humble.
C.J Uzomah has not been married but we can speculate on his relationship status. Previously, he dated Lauren O'Connell, a former Survivor: Edge of Extinction contestant. The two dated for one season and eventually ended up in 5th position. It remains to be determined if they are still together. It is safe to say that C.J Uzomah, regardless of their relationship status, is a single man at the moment.
While attending Auburn University, C.J Uzomah has been working toward a professional football career. C.J Uzomah was a sought-after recruit for Auburn. He was formerly a North Gwinnett high school football star. He was a tight end for the Tigers last season, scoring three touchdowns on 11 receptions and winning the SEC championship. In his final game, he scored the game-winning touchdown against Mississippi State.
C.J Uzomah has multiple verified social media accounts. He shares updates about his professional life and his pet dog, Appa. He recently signed a three-year contract worth $18 million with the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals are not planning to let go of their star athlete. And as for his relationship status, it remains to be seen if he will marry another player.
Xavier Uzomahah's relationship status has been the subject of speculation in recent years. He is still unmarried. He is still unmarried and has not yet announced the name of his future spouse to the media. Although his girlfriend may be his future wife, she is not publicly disclosed. If she is, she would have been married by now.
Xavier Uzomae has had a busy career, but his most memorable performance was during the Bengals' Super Bowl run. On January 9, 2016, he played in the team's send-off rally against the Pittsburgh Steelers and made his first career touchdown. Despite the injury, Uzomae's career isn't over yet.
This season, he had two touchdown catches and 95 yards. He also made the game-winning catch in overtime which set up Evan McPherson's winning field goal. On both occasions, Uzomae's presence was felt in the locker room. The Bengals quarterback didn't target him before the game, but he was a key part of their team's win.
Uzomae was a college athlete who majored in Marketing. Despite his college football background, he was drafted in the fifth round by the NFL. In his rookie season, he only had one reception for four yards. However, his college football career was far from over. His success landed him an invite to the NFL combine, but his first professional game came the same month.
Xavier Uzomae's emergence is a testament to Joe Burrow's ability to put young players on the map. The Bengals drafted him in the fifth round, but he was used as a backup to Tyler Eifert, a high-round pick. He quickly rose to the top of the team and has posted career highs for catch percentage and receptions. His early-career upbringing is responsible for his growth.
As a pro, Uzomah signed a three-year contract with the Bengals in 2018. His salary for this year is approximately $6 million per year, and that doesn't include his playing bonus. The Bengals selected him 157th overall in the 2015 NFL Draft. Uzomah is worth $20 million. He was born on January 14, 1993, in Suwanee, Georgia. His parents are business analysts and his mother is a nurse.

They were able to bond over their shared love of the sport and were able to bond even though they were apart. He graduated from Auburn with honors and was named the team's top tight end in the 2013 SEC Championship.
Xavier Uzoma is currently unknown as to his net worth. His career has been filled with highs and lows, but his most memorable moments are when he helped the Cincinnati Bengals win the AFC Championship game. Uzomah threw 163 passes for 1,591 yards, and 13 touchdowns in 2013. During the celebrations for the AFC Championship trophy, Uzomah sustained a knee injury. He was forced to go to the trophy ceremony on crutches due to the injury, but he did recover and played in the Super Bowl against the Rams.
Uzomah's net value rose to a record high in 2019, when he signed a contract extension with the Bengals for three more seasons. He was injured in his Achilles tendon during the next season. Despite the setback, Uzomah was able to return to the field, and his salary is now estimated to be around $20 million. Uzomah does not have any active endorsements or game bonus, but he has an estimated net worth $20 million.
C.J. Uzomah is a professional football player with a net worth of $6 million. He was born in Suwanee, Georgia, on 14 January 1993. His parents are Nigerian and his father is a former baseball player. Xavier earned an MBA from Auburn University, and he currently works as a financial analyst in the private sector.

Sjeverozapadni kavkaski jezici (sjeverozapadnokavkaski; takođen zvani pontski, abhasko-adigejski ili čerkeski), su grupa jezika koji se govore u području Kavkaza, uglavnom u Rusiji (Adigeji, Kabardino-Balkariji, Karačajevo-Čerkeziji), Gruziji (Abhazija), i Turskoj, s manjim zajednicama raspršenim po Bliskom Istoku.

Osobine

Glasovi
Cijela porodica je obilježena s vrlo malim brojem fonemskih samoglasnika (dva do tri, ovisno o analizi) uz veliko bogatstvo suglasnika, koji uključuju mnoge oblike sekundarne artikulacije.

Rekonstrukcija sugerira da i bogatstvo suglasnika i siromaštvo samoglasnika mogu biti posljedica povijesnog procesa, gdje su se neke osobine samoglasnika, kao što su labijalizacija i palatalizacija premjestile na susjedne suglasnike. Na primjer, ishodišno  je moglo postati  a  postati , gubeći pritom stare samoglasnike */e/ i */o/, ali dobivajući nove suglanike  i .

Jezikoslovac John Colarusso je pretpostavio da se u nekim slučajevima radi o utjecaju starog sustava prefiksa koji su označavale gramatičke klase (npr.  je moglo dati ), na temelju parova kao što su ubiški  naspram kabardinskom i abhaskom  "srce".

Gramatika
Sjeverozapadni kavkaski jezici imaju prilično jednostavne sustave imenica, uglavnom s tek par padeža. Međutim, sustav glagola je izrazito aglutinativan i tako složen, da je praktično cijela sintaktična struktura rečenice sadržana u glagolu.

Općenito je u svakoj rečenici najviše jedan finitni glagol u rečenici, a funkciju zavisnih rečenica vrše raznovrsni nefinitni glagolski oblici - brojne glagolske imenice i participi.

Čini se da se u abhaskom razvijaju ograničene ovisne rečenice, moguće pod utjecajem ruskog.

Podjela
Postoji pet različitih jezika u porodici; jedan od njih je uzumro, a ostali čine dva dijalektska kontinuuma. Podjela je sljedeća (zajedno s približnim brojem govornika):

 abhasko-abazinski jezici
 Abazinski jezik (45 000)
 abhaski jezik (110 000)
 čerkeski jezici
 adigejski jezik (500 000)
 kabardinski jezik (1 000 000)
 ubiški jezik (izumro)

Veze s drugim jezicima

Dosta faktora otežava rekonstrukciju sjeverozapadnog kavskaskog prajezika:
 većina korijena u sjeverozapadnim kavkaskim jezicima su jednosložni, a mnogi su sastavljeni od jednog jedinog suglasnika;
 glasovne promjene su često složene, a veliki broj suglasnika još višer komplicira stvar;
 prijevoj je čest i još uvijek igra ograničenu ulogu u suvremenim jezicima;
 posuđivanje između jezika u porodici je bilo često;
 homofonija je česta u suvremenim jezicima.

Zbog tih razloga, proto-sjeverozapadno-kavkaski se općenito smatra kao jedan od najtežih prajezika za rad, pa je stoga teže ustanoviti veze s drugim jezicima.

Mnogi jezikoslovci udružuju sjeverozapadne sa sjeveroistočnim kavkaskim jezicima u sjevernu kavkasku porodicu (ponekad nazvanu samo kavkaska porodica). Mnogi drugi odbacuju takve veze. Među dvjema porodicama postoje vrlo velike razlike.

Jezici su dovođeni u vezu s različitim drugim jezicima i porodicama:

 s hatskim, predloženo je grupiranje nazvano heto-ibersko;
 s indoeuropskim u tzv. pontske jezike;
 na višoj razini, predloženi su dene-kavkaski jezici, u kojem bi se sjeverozapadni kavkaski jezici doveli u vezu s brojnim azijskim jezicima, kao što su sino-tibetski jezici.

Bluegill Fish
Lepomis macrochirus
Other Names: Bream, Blue bream, Sun perch, Blue sunfish, Copperhead, Copperbelly, Roach clown
Bluegills are small sunfish that inhabit most freshwater areas. Florida bluegill have an attitude for their size and fight better than any other freshwater species of panfish. Bluegill are fun to catch and are second to none in the frying pan. Catching a mess of big bluegill is common throughout the late spring, early summer, and early fall in Florida.
The bluegill fish species is native to North America and live in rivers, streams, lakes, and ponds most. They are most commonly found to the east of the Rockies.
Bluegill can grow up to about 12 inches in length and about 4 1/2 pounds. Their color typically varies depending on their habitat, but they generally have very distinctive coloring.
Bluegills have small mouths and oval-shaped, flattened bodies. Body coloration is highly variable with size, sex, spawning, watercolor, bottom type, and amount of coverage. In general, they are somewhat lavender and bronze with about six dark bars on their sides.
Males tend to have a copper-colored bar over the top of the head behind the eyes. Most of the year, the breast is silver to slightly blue, with some yellow or orange during the spawning season.
Females are generally lighter colored than males. Typically, the females have yellow on the throat while males have bright orange. Two distinctive characteristics are the prominent black spot on the rear edge of the gill cover and a black spot at the base of the posterior portion of the dorsal fin.
Sub Species
Two are recognized: the northern bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus macrochirus), found in northwest Florida; and the Florida bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus mystacalis), found throughout Florida except the panhandle. The bluegill also hybridizes with other members of the sunfish family.
Bluegill Range
The bluegill is native to the east half of the United States and a small part of northeastern Mexico. So they are found naturally throughout Florida and across the United States because of widespread stocking. They have also been introduced to Europe and South Africa.
Bluegills prefer the calm, weedy waters where they can hide and feed. So they inhabit lakes and ponds, slow-flowing rivers and streams with sand, mud, or gravel bottoms, near aquatic vegetation. Prime habitats for bluegill include deep points, weed beds, or in a creek water column near sunken islands.
Age and Growth
Growth is rapid in Florida, and spawning may occur within the first year. A one-year-old fish may be about four inches long. Bluegills can live up to 11 years, but most are less than seven years old. The rate of growth varies considerably in different bodies of water. However, six-inch bluegill in Florida is typically two to four years old.
Behavior and Spawning Bluegill
Bluegills are well known for "bedding" in large groups, with their circular beds touching one another. Bedding occurs in water two to six feet deep over sand, shell, or gravel and often among plant roots when the bottom is soft. Spawning occurs from April through October, with peaks in May and June, when the water temperature rises to about 78-80 degrees. A female may lay 2,000 to 63,000 eggs, which hatch 30 to 35 hours after fertilization.
The Spawning Process
During the spawn, the large male bluegill "bull" or "copper head," as they are called locally, because of the copper band that runs across their dark head are highly vulnerable to being caught easily. Therefore, bluegill during the spawn are at full coloration – dark lateral bars down their sides and a deep red chest.
After establishing their nesting area, the male bluegill guard nests, which are usually the same spawning sites year after year, will become very aggressive. They will strike at anything that intrudes into their nesting territory.
Although we talked about spawning months, we also mentioned that weather had something to do with it. Bluegill spawning will occur when the lake water is between 70 – 75. That could be as early as March and last as late as September. The male bluegill begins building a dish-shaped nest around a sandy depression that is 2 – 4 inches deep and from 8 – 24 inches wide. Bluegills gather in large colonies during the spawn.
In most cases, there are dozens of nests side by side in an area of 50 – 100 square feet. Bluegill spawning activities also cycle around the full moon periods. Therefore, the five-day period is a great time to catch a fish limit before and after the full moon.
Worms and crickets are the preferred live bait for bluegill, with crickets being the top choice as the best live bait. Anglers can purchase worms and crickets from local marinas.
Feeding Habits
Crustaceans, insects, and insect larvae are the dominant foods of bluegills, with fish eggs, vegetation, small fish, snails, and mollusks being of secondary importance. However, they may dominate their diet during certain times of the year. Overall, bluegill feed primarily on insects, both terrestrial and aquatic. They most actively feed at dawn and dusk when they retreat into the shallows. Bluegill feed primarily by sight.
Sporting Quality
Because of its willingness to take a variety of natural baits (e.g., crickets, grass shrimp, worms) and artificial lures (e.g., small spinners or popping bugs) during the entire year, its gameness when hooked, and its excellent food qualities, the bluegill is one of the more important sport fish in Florida and the eastern United States.
As a sport fish, specific bag and size limit regulations apply, and you can register a qualifying catch as part of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's "Big Catch" program.
Most anglers used to only think of bluegill as "bottom of the food chain" fish, and they are prey to larger species, but anglers who give them a chance realize that bluegill put up a hardy fight for their size.
Fishing Tips For Catching Bluegill
Look for the bluegill bite to start picking up in April. Lake Okeechobee has numerous canals in the Everglades, Kissimmee River, and the complete Central Florida area, including Orlando. Beetle spins and crickets are the preferred baits for bluegill fishing.
Bluegill fishing is growing in popularity, and light tackle anglers have discovered that bluegill fishing provides the best freshwater action, ounce for ounce. Bluegill can be caught with various fishing methods, including fly fishing, drift fishing, trolling, and still fishing.
Overall, when bluegill fishing with bait, it's best to fish shallow with a light, small bobber in the spring and near deep structure in the hot summer.
Where To Catch Bluegill
Bluegill fishing is excellent in shallow water during the spawning season when water temperatures are in the mid to high 60s. This is an ideal time for anglers of all skill levels to catch bluegill since they will be abundant and active.
The best places for anglers to look when bluegill fishing are spots with gradual shores, piers, pilings, inlets, holes, underwater structures, lily pads, weed beds, shoreline shallows, and bridges.
During the summer, bluegill will be in deeper water in bigger lakes but remain in shallow water in ponds because of oxygen depletion in deep depths. However, the depths in larger bodies of water remain high in oxygen which is why bluegill can retreat to these deep levels with cooler temperatures and still breathe.
Some of the best bluegill fishing is done in small ponds, which is where some of the biggest bluegill were recorded. Bluegill inhabits almost all waters throughout the United States, but the largest fish tend to come from the farm ponds that receive much less fishing pressure. However, big lakes still have their fair share of big bluegills; they are often found in the deeper water for most of the year.
Tips For bigger bluegill
The key to catching a bigger bluegill, especially during the non-spawning time, is to use the heaviest split shot you have to make the bait fall deeper faster past the smaller sunfish to the bigger bluegill that may be hanging near the bottom.
The best fishing spots to do this are near vegetation or structure, such as near a tree stump. During the spawning season, the larger bluegill are often the first to move toward the shallows.
Anglers can cast their fly rod, cane pole, or spin rod along the edges of a spawning colony to fish the outside of the bed for a possible reaction strike without disturbing the interior of the nest. Anglers fishing the spawn should quickly release the large males, identified by a longer ear tab and bright red and blue breeding colors.
Edibility
Excellent; the flesh is white, flaky, firm, and sweet. They are generally rolled in cornmeal or dipped in pancake batter before frying. Many rank the bluegill as the most delicious of all freshwater fish.
4 pounds, 12 ounces, caught in Ketona Lake, Alabama, in 1950.
FL State record
2 pounds 15.25 ounces, caught in Crystal Lake, Washington County, Florida, in 1989.
Bluegill Vs. Redear Sunfish
Redear sunfish generally have more green and gold coloration with light vertical bars, while the bluegills generally have more orange or yellow coloration. The most significant distinction between the two fish is their operculum colors. Bluegill have a deep blue or black while the redear has orange or red tips near its head.
Bluegill and redear fishing will be at their best during the spring. Redear should be well into their spawning season by April. Much depends upon the weather at that time. Start looking for spawning areas within five days before and after the new and full moons. Areas to check this spring will be the shallow, rocky, and sandy areas throughout most Florida lakes. Most redear are taken on live worms. Bluegills usually start their spawning season a little later than redear.
