Process. The trial of Ivan Sukhinov and his accomplices
A. Kuznetsov: Ivan Sukhinov was a man, even in those days, quite an outstanding biography. As a young man, he volunteered as a volunteer, joined one of the hussar regiments and took part in the wars that preceded the Patriotic War of 1812. Then the year 1812 was part of the 3rd Army and foreign campaigns. In the latter, by the way, he fought very famously, was wounded several times. After the war, Sukhinov was promoted to non-commissioned officer. Well, then, as stated in many sources, "upon granting a certificate of nobility" was first renamed junkers, then sub-ensigns, and finally received the first officer's rank of ensign.
When our hero in 1828 made a speech in Zerentuy, received special instructions at the place of residence of his parents to investigate his roots. It is not very clear why, but still ... As a result, it was found out that Sukhinov's father, a retired collegiate registrar who served under the judicial department, owned a land plot of more than one hundred dessiatines of land and owned 4 souls of serfs: two people from the very beginning, a two he inherited. That is, was, rather, not a nobleman, but a one-palace. Until 1840, the latter had the right to own serfs. That's why, it seems, Sukhinov and had to prove his noble roots, although one of his brothers served in the 2nd Marine Regiment as a captain.
One way or another, but our hero became an officer. He was still listed in the hussars, but then he was transferred to the Chernigov regiment, in the infantry. Apparently, due to lack of funds. Still, in order to serve in the cavalry, the officer needed considerable sums.
And so in 1825, shortly before the Chernigov regiment's demonstration, Sukhinov, with the assignment of the rank of lieutenant, was again transferred to a hussar regiment. However, he did not have time to leave for a new duty station, becoming, as is well known, the most active participant in the Decembrist uprising (in Muravyev-Apostol, our hero commanded the rearguard).
What ended the revolt of the Chernigov regiment, everyone knows. Yet Sukhinov managed to escape from the battlefield. He mixed with the government forces and slipped away. They began to look for him. First, the rebel got to Chisinau, then to the Prut border river ... Nevertheless, on February 15, 1826, he was seized. What happened? In this case, we can only rely on the testimony of his comrade in misfortune, the famous Decembrist Ivan Ivanovich Gorbachevsky, who left interesting notes. Here is how he conveys the speech of Sukhinov, who was already at a penal servitude explaining to him what the matter was: "It was sad to part with Rodina, I said goodbye to Russia as my own mother, wept and constantly looked back at Russian land. When I approached the border, it was very easy for me to cross the Prut and be out of danger, but when I saw the river in front of me, I stopped. Comrades, burdened with chains and thrown into prison, appeared to my imagination. Some inner voice told me: you will be free when their lives pass in the midst of disasters and shame. I felt a blush covering my cheeks; my face was burning, I was ashamed of my intention to save myself, I reproached myself for wanting to be free. And I returned back to Chisinau! ... After spending a few days in the city with my former master, I again intended to flee. Again, on the bank of the Prut, the same burden of separation from the Motherland, again the same reproach of conscience, and I again returned to Chisinau. "
Meanwhile, the police began to itch. According to the secret passport book, where those arriving in the city were recorded, the police chief discovered that the passport of the "collegiate registrar Ivan Emelyanov Sukhinov" was registered in Chisinau. (That is, he changed only the patronymic and said a minor official). The police checked all this. "Officials", being instructed in the means to find Sukhinov, justified the assignment entrusted to them and opened his refuge in the third part of the city in the house of the local resident Semyon. Nikolaev Chernov "". "At the first glance at the passport, found under Sukhinov, one cannot help noticing the falsity of it, and whether there was a bailiff of the local police's investigator, who witnessed a secret sign on him, was more circumspect and quick, then catching such an important criminal would have been a few days earlier whom now, having been shackled, I have the honor of presenting behind this a very strong guard, with the above-mentioned passport and worn-around items found with him. "
For the capture of Sukhinov, the police were recovered by graces: the rank and file received an annual salary bonus, and the official who led the operation received Anna of the 3rd degree.

So, our hero was captured, convicted for the first category and sent on foot to Siberia.
And there, at Zerentuysk penal servitude, Sukhinov finally became embittered. This is what Maria Volkonskaya wrote about this in her famous diary: "To harm the government with anything has become a need for it; to free yourself and everyone was his favorite thought. He lived only to be harmful to the government until the last minute of his life. Love for the fatherland, always making up the distinctive trait of his character, has not faded away, but, according to Sukhinov himself, it seemed to have turned into hatred for the triumphant government. "
And then this hot, very passionate person began to make a speech. The idea of the conspiracy, in general, was quite simple: Sukhinov decided to persuade his comrades in Zerentuy penal servitude, generously treating them in a pub, so that they would seize local guards on the appointed day and hour, take their guns and then move in the direction of the Chita fortress, where exiled Decembrists were kept.
And here is the first document that reached us, the first report on the Sukhinov conspiracy. Berggauptman von Frisch, head of the Nerchinsk plants, reported to Major General Leparsky, the commandant of the Nerchinsk mines: "Due to the circumstances that occurred at the 24th of May at the Zherentuy mine, how much is not unimportant have been detected by preliminary surveys until the present study, I owe it to you To Excellency to inform that in the indicated number, on the announcement of the exiled Kazakov ... ".
Here you have the main traitor. The exiled Cossack in a drunken state came to the office and opened the case. Naturally, measures were taken immediately: all the conspirators were captured and placed under a strong castle. As for Kazakov himself, he was killed by convicts, Bocharov and Golikov, but it was too late.
So, the report of von Frisch Leparsky sent Nicholas I to St. Petersburg. After a while, he received the following imperial rescript (we note that Nikolai closely followed this case, demanded that he be given all the details): "August 13, 1828. Nikolay I. Secret. The Commandant at the Nerchinsk mines, Mr. Major General Leparsky. Seeing from the report submitted to me by the cabinet that the departments of the Nerchinsk mining plants in the Zerentuy mine were convicted in large numbers under the leadership of Ivan Sukhinov, who were drunk, intended to cause indignation, but according to the denunciation of Alexei Kazakov they were taken and kept under guard, except for Vasily Bocharov, who went into hiding you must be ordered to find without fail Vasily Bocharov and immediately bring all of them to the military court, at the end of which over those who will be guilty, carry out the sentence of the military court by force In paragraph 7 of the institution of the existing armies, in such cases, I allow you to follow the same rule, informing the chief of my headquarters and the minister of the imperial court. Genuine signed by his imperial majesty proper hand.
True, Lieutenant-General Selyavin. "
A special commission was set up to investigate the Zerentuy conspiracy, which included Berggauptman Kirgizov, collegiate secretary Nesterov, and warrant officer Anisimov. During the investigation, Kirgizov fell ill, and Nesterov and Anisimov brought the case to the end. As the aforementioned Ivan Gorbachevsky writes in his memoirs, the named trinity drank heavily, worked all kinds of excesses.
One way or another, but the investigation went on. It was a long time. In the meantime, another imperial rescript followed, more detailed, about how anyone should be punished. The commission, of course, made its conclusions and finally decided: "The exile Ivan Sukhinov for the agreement of the exiles Golikov and Bocharov to a common escape with him, who accepted the intention to collect a party of exiles up to twenty people or more, to take them violently in the Zerentuy mine and Nerchinsk plant soldier's guns, gunpowder, cannons and monetary treasury, go to other mines to the factories, break up prisons everywhere to join the men of soldiers, invite and force the living exiles living separately from the barracks have a riot, exterminating everything that only he will oppose, and take the officials who are in the Zherektuysk mine to prison and ignite it; strengthening his own bandit, getting into the Chita ostrog, where to release the state criminals, then take decisive measures with them to further atrocities; and, although he, Sukhinov, didn't perpetuate his own conscience, but, on the contrary, refuted something different for this by ambivalence and changes in his own minds, but rather on confrontations he was exiled by exiles Golikov and Bocharov, but by how he was exiled in Nerchinsk plants in the work for participating in outrage against the highest authority, it is rather proved guilty ... to perpetrate the death penalty on him, Sukhinov, but, complying with the force of decrees of 1754 and 1817 until permission to punish him with a whip three hundred s put on the face of the mark and that he may continue to crimes such attempts could not do, to make it Sukhinov in jail. "
Leparsky, for whose approval the commission submitted this verdict, decided: "Instead of this, according to the same field criminal status and the same paragraphs, I define: shoot Ivan Sukhinov, Pavel Golikov, Vasily Bocharov".
Thus, six people were sentenced to death, the rest to various kinds of punishments. As for the three people, including the two Decembrists who were in Zerentuy, they didn't apply any new measures to them for lack of evidence, they simply frustrated the observation.
"Secret: To the comrade-in-chief of the headquarters of his imperial majesty, Mr. Adjutant-General and Gentleman Count Chernyshev
Commandant at the Nerchinsky mines, Major-General Leparsky
At the highest sovereign emperor's decree, which followed me by his Majesty's handwritten signature on the 13th of last August, I executed the verdict concluded by the commission of the court at the Nerchinsk factory established over defendants exiled who were intending to be exiled Ivan Sukhinov last month to make an escape from the Zerentuy mine, to produce outrage and various atrocities, according to which those sentenced to death to be executed, namely: Ivan Sukhinov, Pavel Golikov, Vasily Bocharov, Fedo Morshakov, Timofey, not remembering the nicknames, Vasily Mikhailov, by the strength of the establishment for a large active army (except for Ivan Sukhinov, who dwelt in prison on December 1st) during this time I was shot. In the same case, he was punished with a whip with a renewal of stamps on the face of signs Avram Leonov, Grigory Shinkarenko, Semyon Sementsov, Grigory Glaukhin.
Ivan Kaverzenko, Nikita Kolodin, Nikolai Grigoriev, Anton Kovalchug, Miron Akatiev, Pavel Anedin, Efim Ilyin, Alexey Rubtsov, Kirilo Anisimov punished with lashes.
Freed from the case of Veniamin Soloviev, Alexander Mozalevsky, Konstantin Ptitsyn. "
Sukhinov, not knowing that the hanging was replaced by execution, and realizing that he was to be punished with a whip, he took out arsenic somewhere and tried to poison himself twice, but both times the doctors pumped him out. And then he decided to hang himself on a strap that supports the shackles.
Mountain Zerentui. Monument to I. I. Sukhinov. (golos.io)
And finally, a small excerpt from the memoirs of Ivan Gorbachevsky: "On the day after Sukhinov's death, preparations began to punish Golikov, Bocharov and their accomplices. They dug a deep hole, set up pillars, sewed shrouds, made new ones and straightened old whips and whips ... The General Present himself and disposed of the execution. He ordered that all kinds of punishment be performed suddenly, probably to shorten the time. All the criminals were brought to the frontal place, and Sukhinov's cooled body between them, apparently, was, which was immediately thrown into the prepared pit. White savers were put on those sentenced to death, and the first Golikov was tied to a pole at the very edge of a dug pit. He was very calm and asked to convincingly leave his eyes unconnected, but his requests were not respected. Shortly before the shots, he began to say something ... "I am not guilty" - there were the last words, as a rifle salvo snatched life from him with lightning speed. The soulless body descended to the bottom of the pole, now it was untied and thrown into a hole. Then they shot Bocharov. It must be thought that this extraordinary scene had an effect on the perpetrators themselves, for the soldiers had lost their marks. Bocharov was only injured; the non-commissioned officer approached him, plunged the bayonet into his chest, and ended the torment of the poor sufferer. Mikhailo Vasilyev held a volley and remained unharmed. The soldiers shortened the distance and began firing one by one.
General Leparsky was angry, shouting, scolding the officer and battalion commander for the fact that his subordinates did not know how to shoot them, and ordered rather somehow to end this very tragic scene. The soldiers wounded Vasilyev with several bullets, but they did not kill him; finally, they jumped towards him and pinned him with bayonets. With the last two accomplices of Golikov and Bocharov, almost the same thing happened as with Mikhail Vasilyev.
At one and the same time, when some were shot, three executioners were punished with the whip and whips of others sentenced to this punishment. It is impossible to imagine all the horrors of this bloody scene. The cries of the victims, tormented by executioners, command words, the wrong firing, the groans of the dying and the wounded — all this was done by some hellish idea that no one could convey and which made the most insensitive person shudder.

Swallowable sensor transmits live reports on intestinal glucose levels
Intestinal glucose levels are a major indicator of gastrointestinal health, and the current method of measuring them involves putting a catheter down the patient's throat. Soon, however, a swallowable "smart pill" could do the job less intrusively.
Oxford scientists discover key cause of type 2 diabetes
A study has shed light on the mystery of how high blood glucose leads to type 2 diabetes. The discovery reveals glucose metabolites can damage insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells, and disrupting this process could offer a way to treat the disease.
Tiny, efficient fuel cell runs on blood sugar to power medical implants
Powering medical implants can be tricky, but tapping into the body's own fuel source could keep them going long-term. A new design for a tiny fuel cell converts glucose into electricity to power implants more efficiently than any other so far.

Jason Crum, a member of the church, said their goal is to fill a 12-foot trailer with the donated items and take them to New York on Oct. 11. "We contacted a church in New York which told us there is still a great demand for supplies like blankets, diapers and nonperishable foods," Crum said. "We have made arrangements to deliver the supplies we collect to the church in New York and help to distribute them."
Crum said the church told him there were many people who are out of work, or displaced from their homes as a result of the destruction of the World Trade Tower buildings. "A lot of people are out of work right now because the building they worked in was either destroyed or near the site of the ones that were. It could be months before they can get back to work and in the meantime they are in need of a lot of the essentials to get by."
Items which Crum said are needed include - personal care items, blankets, diapers, baby formula, childrens toys and books and nonperishable foods.
For those who would like to make a donation of any of the above items they may do so during the hours of 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday at Gaylord Community Church, located on M-32 East in Bagley Township.
"I would really like to see the community get involved in this, not just members of our church," said Crum. "I think this is for a much needed and worthwhile cause."

Strong Women of Sci-Fi – Lyta Alexander from Babylon 5
Posted in Babylon 5, Music, Movies, and other Muses	by storytellergirlgrace
This week I'm going to highlight one more strong female character from science fiction – and I have to discuss my favorite sci-fi show ever, Babylon 5. For anyone who's watched Babylon 5, you would probably agree that the two main female leads – Susan Ivanova and Delenn – are strong women. But as much as I'd agree with you, and as much as I'd like to discuss either of those characters, I'm going to talk about the character of Lyta.
Lyta Alexander from Babylon 5
Lyta is a telepath, and she initially serves as the diplomatic aide to the enigmatic Ambassador Kosh of the Vorlon Empire. Throughout the story of Babylon 5, the Vorlons – at first allies, then enemies, but always mysterious – alter Lyta's telepathic abilities. She becomes stronger than average telepaths, and by the end of the series she reveals that the Vorlons had intended to use her as a doomsday weapon in their war against the Shadows.
I believe that Lyta is a strong character, but unlike Delenn or even Ivanova, she has a negative character arc. At the beginning of the story she starts out "good," as it were – she's a good person, she wants to do the right thing, she readily sides with the Army of Light. But through both circumstances and her own poor decisions, her character arc descends from the positive to the negative. By the end, she is hated and feared by her friends, and she herself has become belligerent, distrustful, and a terrorist.
So here is my listing of elements that go into making a strong female character:
Bravery or boldness. Lyta is not a shy person, though she is not always the first one to step into a fight. Her hesitation is rarely out of fear, though. Partly because of her personality, and partly because she's a telepath, she's a keen observer of people and situations. Even as she descends into anger and hatred, she thinks and plans before she acts. She is plenty brave, though, when she needs to be, and she never runs from a fight.
Intelligence or creativity. Lyta is the one who figures out that the Shadows can be injured by telepaths. Lyta is the one who thinks outside the box enough to risk merging her mind with a Vorlon to save its life (this is not a normal or safe activity – Lyta is the only human to survive such an encounter). She's smart enough to not resort to violence as a first line of defense, even after she feels that her friends have betrayed her. Her intelligence is one of the things that, at the end of the story, makes her that much more dangerous.
Faults and weaknesses. This could be the biggest list, perhaps, because of the negative character arc. She's emotionally volatile, and despite her creativity and intelligence, she is not always wise. She allows bitterness to eventually control her – however justified she might be in feeling that way, based on everything that has been done to her.
Character development. Her character is very developed and every bit as nuanced as all of the other main characters of the series. As I said earlier, character development does not have to be in a positive line going upwards. A character who goes from good to bad can be just as developed – perhaps even more so – than a character who goes from bad to good.
Lyta is a complex person. She wants to do the right thing, is often conflicted about what that "right thing" is, and fights diligently with the Army of Light as the weapon that the Vorlons created her to be. She also has tearful tender moments when she wants to give up, or when she just wants a friend.
Femininity. Lyta is not an exceptionally "feminine" person, but she's not a male character who's been written as a female just to gender-balance the main cast. There's not a lot of time for any of the women characters to be overly feminine in any kind of relaxed atmosphere, since the entire five-season show is a war. However, there are times when Lyta's tender and even nurturing side come through.
What happens when all the men are missing or dead? It's up to the women to save the day. Lyta (with the red hair and black eyes), Delenn, and Ivanova go to Z'Ha'Dum to rescue Sheridan.
A strong character does not have to be a positive or "good" character. Lyta is a strong female character because of her complexity and her humanness. By the end of the series, the audience is forced to reflect: if I had been through everything that Lyta had been through, might I make many of those same decisions? This is the mark of great writing and a strong character – a character who elicits our sympathy, perhaps our anger, and who makes us think.

The Most Neglected Event of Easter Week
Of all the cascade of events during the Easter season, none of which is without meaning, and each of which has been variously interpreted through the centuries – with varying degrees of fidelity to the New Testament text – there is one that usually receives little notice, although I consider it to be second in importance only to Jesus' triumphant resurrection which utterly and permanently destroyed the power of death over his people. It is generally mentioned only in passing, if at all, despite its inclusion in all three synoptic gospels, most of a chapter in Paul's second letter to Corinth, and three separate references in the letter to the Hebrews. That event is the dramatic tearing apart of the thick, heavy curtain called the "veil", that served as the boundary in the Jewish temple (earlier, the tabernacle), beyond which no one but the designated High Priest was ever allowed to venture, because it concealed the supposed residence of God.
Many years ago, when working on Citizens of the Kingdom, I had done some work on the subject of a "veil", primarily because of Paul's mention of the "veil" used by Moses, but I was prompted to dig deeper into the idea by a question raised by a brother some time ago in reference to Mark's account of Jesus' baptism. He wondered if Mark's observation of heaven being "torn open" at that time was the same word as the one used of what happened to the veil of the temple at the time of Jesus' death.
This is one of many examples of the value of the contribution of every member of the Body, which enables one person to trigger another to explore unexpected treasures in the Scripture.
A quick check revealed that it is indeed exactly the same word. Schizo is quite a violent word, elsewhere used of rocks shattered by an earthquake, the guards' decision not to rip apart Jesus' cloak, and the ruin of a fish net or an improperly mended garment, as well as of sharp divisions in the response of various crowds to Jesus' teaching.
But interestingly, these two are Mark's only uses of the word. Might this have been a deliberate choice on his part, and not, as is often supposed, just the effusive, but limited, vocabulary of an excited young man?
We will return to this idea momentarily.
To understand the connection, we must notice the vocabulary of references to "the temple". There are two different words that are translated "temple", and they are not distinguished in English translations. This is true of references to pagan temples as well as the Jewish one. One word refers to the whole temple complex – the building and grounds and all its courtyards and accouterments, where people freely met, walked, talked, argued, begged, bought and sold. The other refers specifically (in both pagan and Jewish contexts) to the "inner sanctum", where the god was believed to dwell – in this particular case, the area walled-off by the veil, the "Holy of Holies", with access restricted to the high priest or his designate. No one else could enter, on pain of death – although that penalty was not mentioned in the original Law. (Neither, incidentally, was the notion that God "lived" there.)
It was the site of Zachariah's vision, and where Judas, in his despair, had hurled his bribe-money. It was also the word Jesus and Paul both used of the Body of Christ – both his own physical body and the "temple of the Holy Spirit" into which his people are being built! (That is worthy of a separate study of its own.)
So where is the parallel here? Mark says, at the beginning of Jesus' ministry, that "the heaven (sky) was split open" – perhaps not so much in order that the dove/spirit could get out, as that the awe-struck observers could see in, and hear the very voice of God acknowledging his Son!
And at the end of Jesus' sojourn among people, the temple's veil of separation, that had been designed to prevent us "ordinary folks" from approaching the presence of God, is likewise "split open" – torn apart – as Mark carefully notes, "from top to bottom" (making it obvious that this was the work of God, and of no human hand). That thing was HUGE – ten cubits was about 15 ft! And as a result of its destruction, all God's people can not only see in, but be provided, as detailed in Heb.6:19, 9:13, and 10:20, definitive and permanent access, as Jesus' own people, to the very presence of God!
The destruction of the overt physical barrier dramatically illustrated that interaction between God and his people had been radically and permanently changed! But there is even more!
Closely related to this access is the removal of the other veil – explained in II Cor.3:12-17 – the only other mention of a "veil" in the New Testament. Here, Paul has chosen a different word, one classically used of a much smaller piece of fabric, often worn, in antiquity, as a sign of mourning. It does not appear anywhere else in the New Testament.
Interestingly, Paul and Moses offer differing explanations for the use of this veil. According to Moses (Ex.34), he covered his face because people were frightened by its glowing appearance after he had been talking with the Lord. There is no hint that this was done at God's direction: it was Moses' own idea. Paul says (II Cor.3) that Moses didn't want them to see the "glory" fading from his face! For whichever reason, just like the temple's heavy curtain, Moses' "veil" also served to separate – in this case, to separate God's spokesman from "ordinary people" – the classic clergy-laity division! But
Paul goes on to explain, "Whenever anyone turns to the Lord, THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY"!!! And "WE ALL" are charged with "reflecting the Lord's own radiance" as we are in the process of being "transformed into his image"!
The temple's veil, whose purpose, in harmony with both the old Jewish hierarchical system and its pagan counterparts, had been to separate ordinary mortals from the presence of God, kept everyone but the high priest from approaching, or even seeing, the place where God's glory was said to dwell. In sharp contrast, Jesus' act, in bringing people TO God, by the giving of his own life, utterly destroyed not only the physical barrier, but also any need for such separation.
Remember that what Jesus referred to as "his work", by his own testimony, was to make us ONE – with himself, with the Father, and with each other. His prayer in John17 included the petition that we may behold his glory, and thereby be transformed, together, to reflect his image. ALL OF US!!!
THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY!!! That has to be one of the most gloriously triumphant statements in all of Scripture! But why, then, is it one of the most neglected? Are there still people and institutions that would prefer that we "ordinary folks" should not know that BOTH the separation between God and man (the veil of the temple), and that between "layman" and leadership (Moses' veil) are intended to be FOREVER DONE AWAY IN CHRIST? The Veil is taken away!
Any manifestation of either such division, on the part of any group that calls itself a church, constitutes a blatant denial of the finished work of Christ!
This, I believe, was the primary thing that really distinguished the Swiss Anabaptist brethren not only from all the other reformers, but even others who eventually shared the "Anabaptist" label. They were hounded from their homes and possessions, and even their very lives, simply because of their adamant refusal, on the grounds of their New Testament study, to remain or to become subservient to the dictates of the state-authorized systems and individuals (whether Catholic or Protestant) who officially held absolute power over the life, thought, and behavior of their underlings. Thousands were martyred for their insistence that Jesus alone was their superior, and only he had the right to command their obedience.
I consider it a major tragedy when groups who claim "Anabaptist" ancestry turn around and create hierarchical systems and obligatory "doctrinal statements" of their own, instead of encouraging and enabling ALL faithful followers of the Lord Jesus to exercise both their responsibilities and their privileges in the formation and function of the Body for which Jesus prayed, and gave his life! An often-omitted part of the history of that first believers' baptism in Zurich in 1525, where five earnest students of the New Testament spontaneously baptized each other, is that those committed brethren at the same time "ordained" each other to the ministry of spreading that good news! They considered the two acts – baptism and ordination – to be the opposite sides of the same coin!
I don't know if you all realize the extent to which Jim's faithful and excellent leadership of this little "colony of the Kingdom" has courageously departed from what has become "standard procedure" today even in most groups that say they share the Anabaptist heritage. Instead of "running the church", and personally dictating all of its activities and teaching, he has graciously assumed the (truly Scriptural) role of an "enabler", taking care to see that we all benefit from one another's insights, abilities, and concerns. That stance, if I may put it a bit crudely, takes guts!
This choice on his part, unfortunately, is extremely rare, although it should be considered the primary task of every person in any kind of a leadership role: to assure that the Body benefits from the contribution of every brother and sister.
Because THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY!!! In a New Testament brotherhood, NO task, NO responsibility, NO privilege is reserved for members of a carefully vetted in-group who can be counted on not to rock any boats or kick any sacred cows. In fact, if there is no boat-rocking or cow-kicking going on, there is probably little studying, learning, or growing going on either!
THERE IS ONLY ONE VALID QUALIFICATION for total participation in the Body to which we are called: unequivocal commitment to faithfully following and representing the Lord Jesus and his Kingdom; and there is likewise ONLY ONE VALID STANDARD OF JUDGMENT by which to assess the authenticity of that faithfulness: mutual and careful study of the New Testament.
Within a community committed to that objective, THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY!!!
The key word here is "committed." A committed community is not an "anything goes", one-size-fits-all mixture; and certainly not a lowest-common- denominator affair! There's one of those on nearly every corner! A committed community is something altogether different. If we are not different from the group down the street, why should we even exist? What do we have to offer? As one brother correctly remarked a couple weeks ago, that's not what at least some of us want – OR , I would venture to add, not what the Lord wants, either!
The popular contemporary question, "Who is allowed to come to visit, and expect to be welcomed?" is completely irrelevant here. That answer must always be "EVERYONE!" A group committed to the Lord Jesus – and to the purpose of faithfully representing his Kingdom – must ask a very different question instead: "Who can participate in decision making and policy determination?" And the answer to THAT question is also different – both more and less restrictive – it must always be, "ALL, but ONLY those who are likewise committed!"
What is different about a group of Jesus' committed followers when the veil is taken away?
There will – there must – still be leadership in the Kingdom. But faithful leaders will take care that there be NO VEIL – no activity or decision that is not completely open before all, for in Christ,
THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY!!! The agenda will not be set by the society around them, but by their study of the New Testament. Total openness, total honesty, the complete absence of any shred of secrecy or manipulation, and careful avoidance of any attribution of status or power to any individual, is the order of life in the new Kingdom..
Another safeguard which helped – and still helps – to prevent any abuse of authority in a New Testament brotherhood is the consistent pattern that every "office", task, or assignment is consistently spoken of in the plural. In every city where a group of believers emerged, the apostles who had brought the message established local elders (plural) to supervise. Ephesians 4:11 lists apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers – all plural – who are to facilitate and enable the ministries of "all the saints". And even a cursory review of that word reveals that "saints" consistently refers, not to individuals of unusual powers or superior "holiness", but to all the people of God!
Jesus himself has sharply defined the function of disciples, and strictly forbidden any honorary titles or positions. He stated it very plainly: "You have one Teacher, and you are all brethren." Different people may (and should) be entrusted with leading or supervising different aspects of life in the brotherhood, but NO INDIVIDUAL, and certainly NO HIERARCHICAL STRUCTURE, whether internal or external, is "in charge."
In the New Testament church, (and this is yet another study we should undertake), the assignment of responsibilities happened in many different ways: group or individual initiative, a direct word from the Lord, the request of a group in need, general consensus, or simply someone being in the right place at the right time. The method of selection does not seem to have mattered. But IN NO INSTANCE was a permanent, or even a temporary title conferred upon anyone. JESUS HAD FORBIDDEN THAT!!! Each was simply called to perform a necessary function, to address a specific need, at a specific time. We had an excellent demonstration of this principle last week, when a spontaneous gathering of brethren discerned together an appropriate response to the concern that one brother had presented.
THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY!!! The destruction and removal of the veil, whether of the temple, enabling the access of all the Lord's people to his glorious presence, or the veil of Moses, eliminating the elevation of any individual above his brethren, makes abundantly clear that it is Jesus' desire that ALL OF HIS PEOPLE not only "behold" his glory, but be transformed, together, to reflect it!
I still think one of the best summaries I have ever heard was our brother Solomon's, when he said simply, "Jesus did not come to tell us how to think, but to show us how to live!"
Through his Holy Spirit, whom we will celebrate in a couple weeks at Pentecost, the Lord has chosen to speak TO all of us, THROUGH all of us, in order to accomplish that goal.
We now have no reason to be either intimidated by glory, nor ashamed of our humanity. Our Lord has graciously made ample provision for both, by giving us himself and giving us each other.
THE VEIL HAS BEEN TAKEN AWAY!!!

New census numbers bring Macedonia at the top with highest Covid-19 death rate in Europe
According to the initial census results, the Covid death rate in the country rose to 3,659 deaths per million inhabitants, while according to the old data of the worldmeter website, Macedonia had 3,218 deaths per million inhabitants, "Telma" analyzes. With this "census" increase, Macedonia, which already ranked high on the mortality rate list, or rather was third in the world and second in Europe, has now climbed one place higher and is first in Europe after getting the spot from BiH which has 3,267 deaths per million inhabitants.
Worldwide, Peru remains at the top with 5,946 deaths per million inhabitants, and the total death toll is 199,485 people.
With a total of 1,832,696 people counted in the 2021 census, the country now has a higher percentage of infections instead of the current 9.23% of the population. The current 192,478 patients, according to new census data, are actually 10.5% of the population. Thus, Macedonia from the 44th place in the world according to the worldmeter website, went up to the 33rd position in terms of the number of infections per million inhabitants.
The worldmeter website used the data that there are 2,083,267 citizens in Macedonia.

A less than perfect credit score can make it difficult to get approved for a car loan. But at Birchwood Credit Solutions, our in-house financing program offers more flexible auto loan requirements, which means more of our customers get approved and driving!
What do I need to qualify for a car loan and can I still be approved if I've been rejected before?
Have an income of at least $1,500 per month.
Why are Birchwood Credit Solutions' car loan requirements different from my bank?
Banks and traditional financial institutions often have strict requirements when approving any loans because they want to guarantee their loan will be returned. Since we lend our own money, we're able to offer more flexible payment plans and interest rates.
If this is my first vehicle purchase, can I still get approved for financing?
Yes, we regularly secure vehicle financing for new drivers.
What documents do banks require for a car loan application?
I recently arrived in Canada and have no credit history. Can I get a car loan?
Yes, we specialize in helping new Canadian residents secure a car loan.
How does credit score affect a car loan?
This is dependant on where you apply. Banks and other financial institutes usually put a lot of weight on credit scores because they indicate your reliability as a borrower. At Birchwood Credit Solutions, we lend our own money, allowing us to look beyond your credit score.
What is the minimum credit score for a car loan in Canada?
Credit bureaus typically rate your credit score on a scale from 300 to 900 with 300 being the lowest score and 900 being the highest. Lenders will look at your credit score to decide your creditworthiness, determining if you will be approved for a vehicle loan.
If you have a score of 620 or higher, you have average to good credit and will likely be approved for a car loan. A score lower than 620 likely means you'll have a harder time getting a car loan from a traditional lender. However, though we do check credit scores, we look beyond the three-digit number and take into account your whole financial situation.
Can I get a car loan even if I have bad credit?
What credit score is needed for a car loan?
In Canada, credit scores range from 300 (less than perfect) to 900 (excellent). If you have a score of 620 or higher you have average credit or better and will likely be approved for a car loan wherever you go. Lower than that likely means you'll have a harder time getting a car loan from a traditional lender, like a bank.
While we do check credit scores at Birchwood Credit Solutions, we also look beyond the three-digit number. We take your whole financial situation into account and have the expertise to help with all kinds of credit challenges.
How long does your online application take to complete?
Our online application takes less than 2 minutes and is designed to be as easy and hassle-free as possible.
How are my car loan payments calculated?
Your monthly payments will be calculated based on the size of your loan, the interest rate and the length of your term. Try our Car Loan Calculator to learn more.
Do I have to be a Winnipeg resident to apply with Birchwood Credit Solutions?
No, we serve auto loans to the entire Province of Manitoba. Although we are headquartered in Winnipeg, MB and have three locations across the city, we can service you even if you live outside of the city. We encourage you to fill out the easy online application or simply call us.
Will I need to provide my Social Insurance Number (SIN) when I apply?
We don't need your SIN to get started. However, you may be asked for your SIN later on in the process once you've been pre-approved for financing.
Do I need to make a down payment on the vehicle?
We generally don't require down payments.
How long does it take and when will I know if I'm approved for financing?
We usually have approvals within 24 to 48 hours of you filling out an application and will notify you through email and/or by phone. Once you have completed that application — either online, over the phone or in person — our Finance Managers will review your information and set up a time to meet with you.
How will I choose my new car?
Let us know the type of vehicle you're looking for when filling out your application. From there, you'll be able to select a vehicle from our list of inventory.
What will the interest rate on my car loan be?
The interest rate you'll pay depends on a number of factors, including your income, your credit score and the size of your loan.
How does the length of the car loan affect my payment?
The longer your loan, the smaller your monthly car payment. Just remember — you'll end up paying more interest if you take out a longer loan.
If I declare bankruptcy, how long before I can get credit?
It is very possible to get credit from day one after filing for bankruptcy without having to wait to be discharged.
When is the best time to buy a new car in Canada?
How do I get out of a car loan?
How can I get a car loan with no credit?
How can I get a car loan with bad credit?
How does cosigning a car loan work?
Our team at Birchwood Credit Solutions is here to make the process of getting a car loan as easy and hassle-free as possible. If you can't find the answer to your question listed, you can always contact us directly by email or by phone at 204-813-9175.
Already Applied for a Loan?
Have you already filled out your application? We make Zit our mission to get back to you as quickly as possible. If you completed your application and have not heard back from us within 24 hours, please call us directly at 204-813-9175 and we'll be happy to help.

THE GOOD BANK
Mazars in Action
BUSINESS FOR GOODHuman Rights & Business
Thriving on Diversity
Nazreen Pandor, Director with Mazars' South Africa's Business Development and Human Rights and Social Compliance Division explains how diversity can be an asset when it comes to establishing an effective Social and Ethics Committee.
The introduction of the Companies Act in 2011 witnessed a sea change in how companies in South Africa dealt with issues such as sustainability, corporate citizenship and the environment. The shift to 'disclosing' how companies apply the principles of the Act is designed to give stakeholders a much clearer idea of what's going on underneath the bonnet of corporate South Africa.
But for Nazreen Pandor, Director with Mazars' South Africa heading the Human Rights and Social Compliance Division, it goes much further. The Act's requirement for both state and publicly listed companies to have a Social and Ethics Committee that is fully accountable also provides an opportunity for companies to make a real difference in how they conduct business going forward.
"The changes are not just about compliance, but also about establishing a moral compass on how companies deal with their human capital," she explains.
Pandor is passionate about the effects such changes will have on the South African business environment and believes that there is a common thread in her current role in the Human Rights and Social Compliance division at Mazars and her ongoing involvement in women's networking and youth employment issues. A lawyer by profession, Pandor began her career at a law firm where she first recognised there were fundamental differences in the way men and women networked.
"At the end of the work day, men tended to socialise whereas women would head home to take care of family responsibilities. So it was a question of finding more creative ways to speak to women across a range of cultures and races."
Cognisant of the fact that women were missing out on valuable opportunities to further their careers, when she joined Mazars in 2010, Pandor continued her work in this area with the introduction of the Mazars' Women's Forum. She is also the chairperson of the Youth Employment Index, which monitors the level of youth working in South African companies. While still early days in getting the index an established part of business culture in South Africa, Pandor firmly believes that as companies get more comfortable with the idea of disclosing the level of youth employed and with government buy-in, it's a solution that will not only benefit South Africa but can also play a role at an international level in helping understand and monitor growing youth unemployment problems.
It is through having such a holistic view and involvement in the issues affecting the corporate landscape in South Africa that has seen Pandor develop a Mazars training programme to help companies understand and establish a Social and Ethics Committee. The intuitive way Pandor approaches training is to recognise that companies are unique in the way they deal with employment issues and areas of social responsibility. For instance, she recognises that some companies have particular concerns relating to the requirement to have at least one non-executive director that sits on the Social and Ethics Committee.
"It's important to understand what concerns the company has and to adopt a training programme that overcomes such hurdles," she explains.
Pandor has found that by focusing on practical examples of what companies have done wrong in the past helps executives recognise the benefits that independent committee members can bring.
"Once you point out the financial cost of mistakes made by companies such as Nike and Apple in terms of their social responsibilities and how corporate culture and social media played its part, it can provide the rationalise for how more objective input can help sustain a company's reputation."
Pandor also believes that understanding the socio-economic background of South Africa is an essential factor in determining the type of training companies require.
"As South Africa is only 20 years into democracy, issues such as employment equality can have a different context to more developed countries. So when developing a training programme it's important to understand the socio-economic aspect of the country that you are operating in so as to make training more specific and, importantly, has ethics at its heart."
Knowledge sharing is a key factor in developing a corporate landscape that has ethics at its heart. It's a factor that Pandor believes is already part of South African culture.
"Through sharing knowledge and looking at what is happening outside of a country, it is possible to find solutions that work better. South Africans are good at that because we thrive on diversity. You do not thrive on diversity by being one dimensional, you have to be open to other ideas and thoughts."
As Pandor puts it, "fundamentally, corporate ideas can be the same, the difference is in how you put those ideas into practice."
How Can Companies Implement a Human Rights Policy?
Anti-bribery in Large French Groups' Communication
nick landrot
Some of the benefits of diversity are enhanced problem solving, more creativity and innovation, and more organizational flexibility. Therefore, many companies are diversifying their boards and C-suite. They have started to create initiatives to increase leader diversity.
In looking at the relationship between leader diversity and Fortune 500 firms performance, Cornell University found a complex relationship, which was actually a curvilinear relationship or U-shaped relationship. What that said, the U-shaped relationship said that organizations that had leader racial diversity, somewhere between zero and 20%, there was actually a negative relationship between diversity and firm performance.
But somewhere around 22 to 25% was the point of inflection and the relationship started to change. Companies that had greater than 22% representation by racial minorities in leadership, there started to be a positive relationship.
How can we explain this U-shape relationship?
At lower levels of representation, it's possible that their unique contributions are not being valued. But once diversity has hit a critical mass in those top-management teams, those unique perspectives and unique contributions may start to be valued and taken into consideration.
The bottom line is the diversity in leadership does matter, but there has to be a critical mass. So, when you start to effectively manage diversity in your leadership, don't be frustrated as you do not get a clear impact, keep going to a critical mass…

Thread: How much for ads_1800teles?
Says 350c on Hx.com but been struggling to find any other values. Anyone have any ideas?
Sorry, this one is quite hard cause it's a super rare. Most of those in Habbo, don't even know the furni. And even the other sites, doesn't have any estimation. In my opinion, you can just stick to habbox's price and go on with it. If someone ask, just state your resource.
Lol I'm sure I still have a pair of these. I'm surprised these are now considered rare lol.
They are more considered, "Ultra Rares" now.
If I talked to my friends the way I talk to my body I'd have no friends."
350-600c, as previously mentioned its hard to get an accurate price on them due to the fact there are just not that many being traded around the hotel.


Sage 300 is the name for the mid market Sage ERP line of enterprise management and accounting applications (formerly Sage ACCPAC), primarily serving small and medium-sized businesses. Since 2004, Sage 300 is developed by Sage. In 2012, Sage renamed ACCPAC to Sage 300.
It is multi-user, multi-currency and multi-language. It is available in six languages: English, Spanish, French, Italian and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional).
It has a number of integrations with third-party solutions from BatchMaster Software, Procore and Cloud Elements.
The original product, EasyBusiness Systems, was developed for the CP/M operating system in 1976 by the Basic Software Group and distributed by Information Unlimited Software. This was ported to MS-DOS and the IBM-PC in 1983.
Computer Associates acquired Information Unlimited Software in 1983 and ran it as an independent business unit. Easy Business Systems added payroll processing in 1984 and supported multiuser networking at this time. In 1987, it implemented a multi-window interface to allow moving between different modules. Easy Business Systems was renamed Accpac Plus in 1987 with the release of version 5. Accpac became popular in Canada with support of Canadian public accounting firms that would sell and support the software. The name Accpac is an acronym for 'A Complete and Comprehensive Program for Accounting Control'.
The first Windows version, CA-Accpac/2000, also known as ACCPAC for Windows, was developed in the early 1990s and released in October 1994.The Windows version marked the move to client/server and was developed with all new code developed in COBOLwith Computer Associates development tools(these components were redeveloped in 2001 in Accpac Advantage Series with a core business layer developed in C and a user interface layer developed in Visual Basic).
In October 1996 ACCPAC for Windows 2.0 was released. In August 2001, the company presented ACCPAC Advantage Series 5.0, its first web-based version.
Sage 300 initially ran on Btrieve Databases and then supported a variety of database backends. Since Sage 300 2016 only the MS SQL database is supported.
Sage Software acquired Accpac from Computer Associates in 2004. Sage named it Sage Accpac ERP in 2006, then Sage ERP Accpac in 2009. Sage dropped the Accpac name in 2012 when it was renamed to Sage 300 ERP.

"That's why they hate Infowars so much," the conspiracy theorist tweeted. "Tomorrow's news today!"
It was the kind of clerical error that happens all the time, if with a twist. Last September, reporter Curtis Waltman filed a Freedom of Information Act, or FOIA, request with the Washington State Fusion Center for law enforcement documents about anti-fascist activists and various right-wing and white-supremacist groups.
Waltman got back the emails and intelligence briefings he was expecting, he wrote last month. But there was something he didn't expect: documents claiming the government uses "psycho-electronic weapons" and "remote brain mapping" to control people's minds, give them unexplained physical symptoms, and, well…make their feet itchy. One of the documents among these unexpected surprises even included a literal black helicopter.
This odd tranche of materials obviously weren't law enforcement records, and their inclusion seemed like a harmless mistake on the part of the Fusion Center. Waltman wrote a story about the documents for the public-records focused news site MuckRock, which subsequently got picked up by Popular Mechanics. But the mix-up ended up being an inside joke among FOIA nerds.
Then Alex Jones found them.
The Infowars host and conspiracy-theorist-in-chief retweeted himself Tuesday, obviously, ensuring the Washington State Fusion Center's FOIA follies got a second turn in the newscycle.
This reporter, no stranger to the CIA, decided to get to the bottom of things. Now, after another FOIA request with the Washington State Fusion Center and a short — by public-records-request standards — one-month wait, the answers are in.
The government, and the CIA in particular, has certainly experimented with mind control before on unwitting subjects. But don't worry — the government probably isn't using satellite dishes to control your thoughts.
Back in January of last year, a member of the public apparently sent an email to the Fusion Center with these "psycho-electronic weapons" documents attached. The body of this email, released to ThinkProgress after making a FOIA request of its own, featured an article about John Akwei, who sued the U.S. National Security Agency in 1992 over a host of allegations — including harassment, attempted poisoning, and mind control — by former high school classmates who supposedly worked at the agency.
Another email released to ThinkProgress in response to its FOIA request makes it clear the Fusion Center didn't intend to release these conspiratorial documents to Waltman. Records officers are among some of the most overworked and under-appreciated people in government, and this was an honest mistake.
But, hey, if any FOIA officers out there ever want to slip ThinkProgress their best theories on Area 51, we're all ears.


Nan E. Brown, 86, Dunmore, died Monday afternoon in the Green Ridge Care Center in Scranton.
Born in Scranton, she was the daughter of the late Thomas and Anna Stetz Brown Sr. Nan graduated from Dunmore High School, earned a bachelor's degree from Marywood College, a master's degree from Seton Hall University and obtained a doctorate degree from the University of Colorado. After retiring as a teacher from High Point Regional High School in Sussex, N.J., Nan returned to live in her hometown of Dunmore.
Nan was a faithful member of SS. Anthony & Rocco Parish in Dunmore and greatly enjoyed spending time with her beloved great nieces and nephews.
Her family would like to thank The Green Ridge Care Center and Hospice of the Sacred Heart for their devoted care and compassion that was shown to Nan.
Surviving are a sister in law, Mary Helen Brown, Dunmore, a cousin Mary Ann Tierney, NJ, three nieces, Karen Kolcharno and her husband Chris, Peckville, Eileen Brown, Morristown, NJ, and Diane Michalczyk and her husband Mark, Dunmore, a nephew, Michael Brown and his wife Leah, Harrisburg, and eight great nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by a brother, Thomas Brown, and a great nephew, Ryan Mason Michalczyk.
The funeral will be Thursday from the Carlucci-Golden-DeSantis Funeral Home, Inc. 318 East Drinker Street in Dunmore with Mass of Christian Burial at 11AM in St. Anthony of Padua Church, Smith Street in Dunmore. Interment will take place at a later date in the Mount Carmel Cemetery in Dunmore.
Friends may call Thursday morning from 9:30AM-10:30AM at the funeral home.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Ryan Mason Michalczyk Memorial Fund, care of First National Community Bank, Dunmore.
Miss Nan Brown was my High Point Regional High School Earth Science Teacher. If she was called Mrs. Brown, she would say that was her mother, not her. I was not a good Earth Science student, but I do feel she was a great teacher and a great person. Nan was also my Cheerleading Advisor and held us to high standards. I kept in touch with Nan after graduation. I am happy I was able to talk to her on the phone last year. Since I did not know when her birthday was, I was going to send her a bouquet in celebration of Spring, but when I called her nursing home, I was told only that she was no longer there. Sadly I learned that she had passed. I loved Nan Brown and will miss her.
Entering a new High School just after Thanksgiving in 1967, Miss Brown was my Earth Science teacher . She was tough but fair and very knowledgeable. Throughout my remaining years at High Point, she was our cheerleading advisor . She will always be remembered for her care and consistency as she influenced the lives of many . Some of us went on to teach, therefore she has effected even more students through her giving. I never knew her age, but now realize that she was about the age of my mother -- makes her impact on my life even more meaningful.
and she made a great impression on my life and was my favorite teacher. She sent me to Rutgers that year as a rep from High Point for their science day. I later became a science teacher in Maine for a few years as well as a pastor. I still remember the Bible she kept on her desk and she once said that if her teaching go against this book ,you don't have to listen to me! I owe her much for my love of science and my love for God!
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Miss Brown. I was one of her students at High Point Regional High School and remember her as the strongest and most amazing woman! She had an impact on my life that endures to this day and is greatly missed.

December delights II: Going with the glow
by Ken Trainor December 15, 2015
It's Dec. 13 and the grass is green. The thermometer registers 60. Global warming is looking kindly upon us before, as in most horror stories, its visage suddenly turns fierce and unforgiving.
But I feel blissed — and blessed after spending Saturday night with all of you down in the Loop. Surely everyone was there, or so it seemed, milling and streaming, weaving and dodging, holiday savorers enjoying their savorings, passing street-corner musician mini-concerts and neo-Hopperesque diners. Going with the flow and the glow.
One woman, her smartphone balanced at the end of her selfie stick, marched with determination down one street, filming all the way.
In a topsy-turvy world, jumpy with fears of terrorist attacks, I gave not one thought to worst-case scenarios all evening, and I didn't notice anyone else looking nervous either, not even the phalanx of police officers on bicycles (and their best behavior). The only avoidance I practiced was steering clear of an oncoming protest march that monopolized the sidewalk, no doubt calling for da mayor's resignation, and while I'm not unsympathetic, that was not my purpose for being there.
For the past 16 years, a visit to Christkindlmarket has been a December tradition. Christkindl means "Christ child," who in German lore brings the gifts. In this country, the name merged with the image of England's Father Christmas (and/or St. Nicholas) to form "Kris Kringle," which then morphed into the figure we know as Santa Claus (from the Dutch "Sinterklaas").
I learned, earlier this year, while attending a wedding at Germania Place on the North Side, that Chicago's largest ethnic group for much of its early history (into the 1900s) was German, so this popular annual gathering of merchants from Germany (and sundry other locales, including Bethlehem), beneath the watchful eyes of Picasso's untitled sculpture, has historical grounding.
I came for a mug of "gluhwein" ("glow wine"), a funnel of cinnamon-coated pecans, some strudel, and a carved wooden ornament (Joseph and Mary traveling to Bethlehem because December, and life itself for that matter, has always felt like a journey, pregnant with meaning).
My friends and I took the long journey through Daley Plaza, glowing with gluhwein, navigating the remarkably amiable crush of visitors. Usually we try to snag a bench inside the "warming house," where the mulled wine is served in little ceramic boots, but there was no need for warming on this balmy evening.
After a light repast at Toni's Patisserie in the faded art deco splendor of the Pittsfield building, we ambled, coats unzipped, across Michigan Avenue into Millennium Park, where a stunning, hyper-illuminated, Colorado blue spruce, donated by a kindly lady from Northlake, towered over the nearby skaters and the cellphone shutterbugs.
The mist on the crest of surrounding skyscrapers gave a luster of London to objects below. It also fogged up The Bean's mirrored surface. We toweled down one of the nearby picnic tables and made serious inroads on the strudel. A picnic in December. Who could have imagined?
Then we headed to Marshall Field's/Macy's to check out the tree in the Walnut Room, a tradition, you may be reassured to hear, that is still going strong.
On the way down from the seventh floor, I picked up a couple of plush Snoopys since that very afternoon during babysitting time, I turned on the TV (the boys were asking for Curious George) and found Peanuts instead. When Snoopy appeared, you would have thought it was the Second Coming — a much bigger reaction than either Santa Claus (or George) generated. So my Christmas shopping has officially started, beginning with Snoopy.
Back outside, we found the annual Christmas window displays, which provided a backdrop to more cellphone selfietographers. From what I could discern, Santa is now delivering to the entire solar system, each window representing a different planet.
If the jolly old elf is listening, this particular planet could use a new (long-term) lease on life. But that may have to wait for several more Christmases.
On this evening, we managed to renew one ongoing tradition, revisit a longstanding tradition, and no doubt observed more than a few new traditions being established among families with kids perched on shoulders, all in the space of a few hours.
And all with nary a shiver — except for the young woman in a sleeveless short dress, posing fashionably in front of the great tree in the park.
A lot of people put snow on their Christmas list each December, but I'm not one of them. If it snows, fine. But if temps stayed in the 40s and 50s all winter, I'd be perfectly content. Walking in comfort last Saturday night — Frank Sinatra's 100th birthday — on that great street in a town that won't let you down was my kind of good time.
Made me feel downright merry.

Today is Saturday, Feb. 22, the 53rd day of 2020. There are 313 days left in the year.
Saturday, February 22, 2020 1:30am
Today's highlight:
On Feb. 22, 1980, the "Miracle on Ice" took place in Lake Placid, New York, as the United States Olympic hockey team upset the Soviets, 4-3. (The U.S. team went on to win the gold medal.)
On this date:

In 1857, Robert Baden-Powell, founder of the Boy Scouts, was born in London.
In 1862, Jefferson Davis, already the provisional president of the Confederacy, was inaugurated for a six-year term following his election in November 1861.
In 1909, the Great White Fleet, a naval task force sent on a round-the-world voyage by President Theodore Roosevelt, returned after more than a year at sea.
In 1924, Calvin Coolidge delivered the first presidential radio broadcast from the White House.
In 1935, it became illegal for airplanes to fly over the White House.

(Zazi faced up to life in prison but spent nearly a decade after his arrest helping the U.S. identify and prosecute terrorists; he was given a 10-year sentence followed by supervised release.) New York City police officer Richard Kern, accused of sodomizing a drug suspect in a subway station, was acquitted at trial; two colleagues were acquitted of a cover-up.

The baby hairs at my hair line ruin sleek looks that I try to attempt, such as buns and ponytails, and make it harder to apply makeup on my forehead evenly.... There are several reasons for baby hair growth on forehead. Let us know the causes underlying hair growth on forehead and ways to get rid of them.
Laser / intense pulsed light and electrolysis are the two permanent hair removal methods. While electrolysis is more effective it is for smaller areas like upperlip and chin since it involves inserting the needle into each hair follicle.

Cardano (ADA) is without a doubt one of the most interesting crypto projects in the market. Though it's still a work-in-progress, most of the things they are working on could propel this project to the top in the future. One interesting aspect of the Cardano project is quantum resistant signatures. As per the Cardano roadmap, the team is 50% through, with works on quantum resistant signatures. Once completed, it feature will protect funds held on the Cardano blockchain from being compromised using quantum computers.
It has been widely known for some time now that quantum computers are a major existential threat to cryptocurrencies. That's because they have the capacity to break the cryptographic algorithms that are used in blockchain, but they never get much attention in crypto sphere. That's because it is widely assumed that the technology is far-off. However, these computers may actually be a reality sooner than most people expect. They have been under development from as far-back as the early 2010s. With such a long-time under development, it's only logical that quantum computers could be closer to becoming a reality than most people think. As such, the quantum resistant signature aspect to the Cardano project could actually end up being its most important one, and it will have wide ranging implications on the project.
First, it could become the backbone that aids in the adoption of Cardano (ADA) by institutional investors. That's because for institutional investors looking to put money in crypto, security is an absolute concern. If there is any risk that funds could be compromised, then it's an instant turn-off. As a matter of fact, the reason why institutional players have been slow to invest in cryptos is because of security. As such, once Cardano completes this aspect of its roadmap, it stands to attract loads of institutional money.
With quantum resistance, businesses too will be more confident in developing their systems on the Cardano blockchain. That's because it offers an element of long-term sustainability to it. At the moment, the main issue hindering the adoption of blockchain tech is scalability. But this is now being resolved, with Cardano already having resolved this with its Ouroboros proof-of-stake algorithm. Therefore, in a few years, quantum resistance will be the key issue, and on this basis alone, businesses, especially those dealing with sensitive data, can bank on the Cardano blockchain.
For Cardano investors, these developments all add to the overall value of Cardano (ADA) as an investment. They make Cardano a complete project that is perfectly suited to do what it is meant to do. It is scalable, cost-effective, and extremely secure. Very few platform blockchains come close to what Cardano can achieve in real-world application. For those who are patient enough to hold on to their Cardano (ADA) with a long-term picture, this is one project that will generate them great wealth. It's massively undervalued at current prices, when it's hovering at around $0.10. $10 Cardano (ADA) is very much possible in a few years.
