Yes, YOUR Holy Triune God is a God of love, and you will know the true Christians, the true followers of God, by their love for each other, and by their good deeds for each other.
Yes, Our God loved enough to give ALL of mankind Our God's best gift of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Who is and Who was, Our God incarnate, Our God/Man, Who was and Who is still, perfect in ALL His ways.
Yes, Jesus Christ loved mankind enough that He came to Earth as a holy Infant, conceived in the virgin girl Mary by Our God's Holy Spirit, was born in a lowly manger, grew into manhood holy and pure, had 39 lashes on His back to pay for the physical healing of mankind, shed His holy innocent blood and died on Calvary's cruel cross to pay for the sins of mankind, so that each person who comes to Jesus, and who asks Jesus to save them from their sins, could have FREE salvation from their sins and wrongdoings, could come out of ALL sin and live for God, and could have abundant life on Earth, and could have eternal life in heaven with THEIR Holy Triune God.

Yes, the ONLY pathway to YOUR heavenly Father God is through your Lord Jesus Christ.

Yes, life on Earth is uncertain, and your one death on Earth is certain.
Yes, after your one life and one death on Earth, will be Our God's white throne judgment, where each person who has ever lived on Earth will stand before THEIR holy Creator God and will give a report on all their thoughts and on all their actions while they were alive on Earth.
Yes, all the people who chose Jesus as their Lord and Savior, who came out of all sin and lived for God, while they were alive on Earth, whose names are found written in the Lamb's book of life, will enter heaven forever.
All who had the opportunity to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior, who rejected Jesus as their Lord and Savior, who continued to live in sin while alive on earth, whose names are NOT written in the Lamb's book of life, will enter the torments of hell forever.
Yes, NOW is the time to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, and to come out of all sinful lifestyle, and live for God, NOW while you are still alive on Earth.

Variable weight world record holder, William Winram, was recently in Dahab, training with Rodolfo Robatti, from Switzerland, in no-limits freediving. William was kind enough to extend an invitation my way to join him on the sled for several of his 'warm-up' dives. I wore a mask (in lieu of the nose clip option) as I felt more relaxed with a mask on, plus I wanted to see the arch in all its glory! However, this would mean that during the dive I'd have to use some of my air to equalize the mask, in order to avoid getting a mask squeeze.
William wore a mask as well, in order to keep an eye on me and stop the sled if I had difficulty equalizing, so sweet! We reached 53 meters, deep enough to view the incredible arch, a magnificent view to be immediately followed by an exhilarating ride back to the surface!
After our warm-up dives, William took the sled to 90 meters, the bottom of the Blue Hole! A seemingly easy dive for him, being that his world record is at 145 meters!
Rodolfo Robatti, did several no-limits dives as well, reaching a maximum depth of 78 meters! Way to go Rodolfo!
Here are photos from our no-limits diving sessions. Enjoy!
Big thanks to William Winram for inviting me to tag along, and his kind attentiveness, as well as Pim Vermeulen from Immersion Dahab for providing the sled equipment and excellent safety.

The Witcher season 3 starting production early 2022
A new listing on Production Weekly revealed that The Witcher season 3 will start filming in early 2022
Emma-Jane Betts
During its global fan event, TUDUM, in September 2021, Netflix announced that The Witcher season 3 was officially in the works. Now, even before season 2 has been released, we have word that filming for the latest chapter in the hit Netflix TV series will soon be underway. According to a new listing on Production Weekly, as spotted by Redanian Intelligence, Geralt's next adventure will start filming at the beginning of 2022.
Although we are still waiting for The Witcher season 2 to drop on the streaming service, it seems like Netflix is wasting no time on cracking on with the fantasy story. The newest listing from Production Weekly revealed that The Witcher season 3, currently under the working title Mysterious Monsters, will start production "in the first quarter of 2022". This means that filming for the show is planned to begin anywhere from January to March.
Another fascinating snippet of information revealed from Production Weekly's listing is that the upcoming season will move its production hub from Arborfield Studios to Longcross Studios. Arborfield Studios is where the first season was filmed, and Longcross Studios is the company behind other binge-worthy TV series such as Call the Midwife, and Broadchurch. We are curious to see how the studio change will affect the upcoming season.
It should be noted that these dates for The Witcher season 3 aren't set in stone. Thanks to Covid-19, season 2 of The Witcher had to adapt to lockdown restrictions. Its production was switched from on-location filming to studio filming in 2020, as the pandemic hit crew and cast. Just like in The Witcher season 2's production, unforeseen circumstances can happen and put a wrench in the works for The Witcher season 3, especially as we are still amid a global pandemic.
You can watch the trailer for The Witcher season 2 below:
So far, there is no firm release date for The Witcher season 3. However, The Witcher season 2 is expected to release on Netflix come December. The second season will see Henry Cavill, of DCEU fame, return as the show's demon-hunting protagonist, Geralt of Rivia. Joining him in the cast lineup is Freya Allan (Gunpowder Milkshake) as Ciri, and Anya Chalotra (Wanderlust) as Yennefer.
The Witcher season 2 is set to release on December 17 and will be available to stream exclusively on Netflix.

Q: my sqlite cursor returns empty result for a query I have a small function for checking to see if a records already exists in my sqlite database. There is data in the database that should match the query, i have verified this by opening up the database.But i get an empty result.
Below is the function, it takes in a parameter and uses that as the search parameter. i have also verified that the parameter is correct.
public boolean checkParent(String email)
{
    SQLiteDatabase db = this.getReadableDatabase();
    Cursor res = null;

    try
    {
        res = db.rawQuery("SELECT * FROM parents WHERE email = ' " + email + " ' ",null);
        res.close();
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        Log.e("Error checking parent", ex.toString());
    }

    if(res == null)
    {
        return true;
    }
    else
    {
        return false;
    }
}

A: Right way to pass argument in rawQuery method.
db.rawQuery("SELECT * FROM parents WHERE email = ?",new String[]{email});

A: You are checking whether the cursor object res is null. This will never happen; rawQuery() always returns a cursor object.
You have to check whether the cursor is empty, i.e., whether the cursor actually contains any rows. To do this, call a method like moveToFirst() and check if it succeeds.
Or even better, use a helper function that does handle the cursor for you:
public boolean checkParent(String email)
{
    SQLiteDatabase db = this.getReadableDatabase();
    long count = DatabaseUtils.queryNumEntries(db,
            "parents", "email = ?", new String[]{ email });
    return count > 0;
}

The industry growth is driven by growing consumer awareness connected with food security matters. Though the rise of the market is largely restricted to Asian markets, the gradual increase in the popularity of ghee for its nutritional value would end up being favourable for its penetration in American and European nations, in the next few years. An increase in green building projects is also contributing towards the increase of the international LED bulb industry.
The food industry currently accounts for the vast majority of its complete worldwide consumption. Rising manufacturing industries in Asia Pacific is predicted to prompt the increase of acetic acid market in the next few years. At present, the food sector is the most significant consumer of rice accounting for the bulk of the whole worldwide consumption, followed by the feed sector.

Therefore, the worldwide cement market is extremely fragmented with the five leading players accounting for just over one fifth of the overall international sector. As a consequence the international advertising market proceeds to keep up a strong growth momentum.
The big aspect that has contributed to the development of the current market is the shortage of substitutes for rare earth magnets. One of the most important facets that's boosting the demand for LED bulbs is the expanding need for low energy consumption around the world. Knowing the faulty versions of BRCA genes lets us use genetic testing to recognize at-risk people so that they can be advised on things they can do in order to manage their risk. While the expanding health concerns, especially in the Western nations, are anticipated to hinder the usage of potato chips, their consumption is predicted to grow in the emerging markets like India, China and Russia. Read in my new article all the information about the Association Noosphere cofounder. In any case, the features of top cited articles ought to be further analyzed to assist new researchers design studies in future. Several factors are driving the development of the tomato processing market. The whole number of publications was positively related to GDP in main productive nations.

Trauma exposure, resilience, social support, and
A complex psychiatric syndrome that develops in response to trauma exposure. Individuals with PTSD experience intrusive recollections or reexperiencing of the traumatic event, avoidance of trauma reminders, emotional numbing, and hyperarousal. In addition, PTSD is associated with high rates of concomitant physical and mental health problems, increased health care use, and impairment in social and occupational functioning. Almost 7% of the general population and up to 30% of veterans meet lifetime criteria for PTSD. Indeed, PTSD is one of the most common psychiatric disorders, representing a significant and costly public health concern.
construct validity among former prisoners of war
permalinkSocial Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology - 2000-02-01Gold PB, Engdahl B, Eberly RE, Blake RJ, Page WF, Frueh BC10.1007/s001270050006
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate predictors of persistent symptoms of
and to examine the construct validity of
in a national sample of 270 World War II and Korean Conflict prisoners of war (POWs). Method: POWs were interviewed at two points in time (1965 and 1990). Predictors included
symptomatology measured in 1965 by items from the Cornell Medical Index (CMI), severity of captivity trauma, resilience factors, and post-trauma social support. The criterion, symptomatology in the early 1990s, was evaluated with the
module of the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM (SCID). Results: The CMI provided only partial coverage of
criteria and appeared to provide only a general index of distress. Clustering of SCID items in two-dimensional space via multidimensional scaling analysis offers some construct validation for the DSM's differentiation of
symptoms into criterion groups, although there was not a perfect match. Trauma severity is best related to
symptomatology experienced in 1990, mitigated in part by greater education level and age at the time of trauma exposure. Surprisingly, 1965 distress added only a modest amount to the prediction of current distress, while post-trauma social support added none. Conclusions: These findings support previous work showing the severe psychological sequelae of POW status 40-50 years after captivity, and indicate that trauma severity during captivity is the best predictor of current
symptomatology. Results also add to our understanding of the conceptual differentiation of
symptoms into separate and distinct symptom clusters.

None is too many
There is absolutely no comparing Muslim immigrants to Jewish immigrants – for them it's civil war, Arab against Arab – and they have choices. 57 other Muslim countries.
Jack Engelhard

Donald TrumpMigrants
Sarah doesn't remember the exact moment when Father and Mother decided it was time to leave as the Gestapo were tightening around Toulouse.
For me, now, I can't imagine a more horrifying decision. How do you decide that it's time to leave everything behind and, literally, run for the hills?
You're leaving your country, your home, everything you know because one particular day you find that life is unbearable and you've run out of choices.
You are being hunted.
I can only try to imagine the tears and vexations of my mother when, despite her protests, it was time to go.
Largely through the efforts of the Catholic priest who studied Talmud with my father, and who had contacts with the French Underground, arrangements were made. They packed up. One suitcase. Plus a backpack. The backpack would be used by my father to carry me across the Pyrenees.
I cover much of that in "Escape from Mount Moriah," a memoir about arriving in Montreal. That's my story about being a refugee.
So today there are new stories about newer refugees; Trump's restrictions to modify the influx from certain Muslim lands, and the protests here and abroad to stop Trump. They carry signs saying, "We are all immigrants," and I say yes, but not all immigrants are alike.
The man who ran the immigration office for Canada spoke for both his country and for America when he flatly declared, "None is too many."
We did not have 57 Jewish countries to save us as there are 57 Muslim countries to save these migrants coming to America.
We had no Israel. We had nothing. We had nobody.
I'm speaking here for ourselves, a family of four, and the millions of other families who were trapped, caught and slaughtered.
Roosevelt had clamped the doors to America except for a quota here and there and it was the same for Canada under Mackenzie King.
Chuck Schumer wasn't around to weep for us as he weeps for the Muslims and in fact the policy for us was entirely different.
He was speaking about the few of us – the few Jews that had somehow survived Hitler's systematic genocide.
I say systematic because there has never been anything like that, when a nation, Germany, takes it into its head to obliterate an entire population.
So there is absolutely no comparing Muslim immigrants to Jewish immigrants – for them it's civil war, Arab against Arab – and they have choices.
For us it was a methodical and diabolical plan to obliterate us from the face of the earth…in which nearly everybody had a hand, including Islam.
We had no choices.
Today we call it the Holocaust. Back then it had no name. The victims, the prey, the hunted; they only knew it as a world war against them and them alone.
For what reason? What had they done? Had they committed acts of terrorism? There's nothing like that on record.
For us the Christian world was silent, in fact complicit.
Were we coming with books and motives that glorify murder? No, that is not our God. That is their god.
But it is for them and for their god that the world weeps today.
For us the Christian world was silent, in fact complicit, and some Jews living in freedom spoke up, but not nearly enough.
Today they speak up for Muslim immigrants.
These include American and Canadian Jews who had no tears for Jewish immigrants – immigrants who came not seeking a better life.
We were seeking life, period.
So please spare me your broken hearts. The refugees of yesteryear could have used your righteousness.
You are too late and you were nowhere to be found when your true brothers and sisters reached out for your hand but instead found a cold shoulder.

Samsung leader given 5-year jail sentence for bribery
http://www.thestar.com.my
SEOUL: The billionaire head of South Korea's Samsung Group, Jay Y. Lee, was jailed for five years for bribery on Friday after a six-month trial over a scandal that brought down the president.
Lee had paid bribes in anticipation of favours from then president Park Geun-hye, according to a landmark ruling by a Seoul court, which also found him guilty of hiding assets abroad, embezzlement and perjury.
Lee, the 49-year-old heir to one of the world's biggest corporate empires, has been held since February on charges that he bribed Park to help secure control of a conglomerate that owns Samsung Electronics, the world's leading smartphone and chip maker, and has interests ranging from drugs and home appliances to insurance and hotels.
Lee denied wrongdoing. One of his lawyers, Song Wu-cheol, said Lee would appeal the lower court ruling.
"The entire verdict is unacceptable," Song said, adding that he was confident his client's innocence would be affirmed by a higher court.
Under South Korean law, sentences of more than three years cannot be suspended. The five-year sentence is one of the longest prison terms given to a South Korean business leader.
The Seoul Central District Court said Samsung's financial support of entities backed by Park's close friend, Choi Soon-sil, constituted bribery, including 7.2 billion won (US$6.4 million) in sponsoring the equestrian career of Choi's daughter.
In return for the contributions, prosecutors say, Samsung sought government support for a controversial 2015 merger of two of its affiliates, which helped Lee tighten his control over the conglomerate.
His lawyers had argued that the merger was done on business merits but the court did not accept that.

Tax Revenues, Development, and the Fiscal Cost of Trade Liberalization, 1792-2006
Cag�, Julia
Gadenne, Lucie
Lucie Gadenne
This paper examines the impact of trade liberalizations on government revenues. Using a new dataset on tax revenues for 130 countries between 1792 and 2006 we find that on average countries were able to recover the tax revenues lost by liberalizing trade by using other sources of revenue. There are however important differences between the experiences of developing countries and that of today's rich countries when they were at a similar state of development. Trade liberalization led to a larger decline in tax revenues in developing countries since 1970 than in rich countries in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Over 40% of the developing countries in our sample experience a fall in total tax revenues that lasts more than ten years after an episode of trade liberalization. Results are similar when we consider government expenditures, suggesting decreases in trade tax revenues negatively affect governments' capacity to provide public services in many developing countries.

If the Industrial Revolution defined the 19th century, the digital revolution characterized the 20th and early 21st. From the birth of the internet to the surge in social media usage, the latest technology has optimized business processes, enhanced communications and improved customer service. Here are four digital revolution trends that benefit small businesses.
An electronic payment system allows small businesses to handle digital transactions so they can sell their products and services on the internet. The advent of this technology has changed the way consumers shop. Many customers now pay for goods with a credit or debit card and have their items delivered to their door.
Since the digital revolution, most businesses have adapted to new payment technologies. The bulk of brick-and-mortar retailers facilitate payments online, and a growing number of businesses manage transactions via mobile applications. Today, 80 percent of internet users have bought something online, and 50 percent have made more than one purchase.
Before the digital revolution, consumers had limited choices if they wanted to engage with a retailer. Now, they have various customer service options at their fingertips, including social media, live chat, email and digital help desks. These new technologies have proved popular. One telecommunication company discovered that 70 percent of its customer service contacts could be delivered digitally -- something that eventually reduced costs by up to 30 percent.
Digital customer service enhances communications between companies and consumers. It boosts customer satisfaction, too. According to one study, 73 percent of consumers said they were satisfied with the customer service they received when they contacted a company through live chat, and 61 percent were satisfied with the customer service they experienced via email.
The digital revolution has ushered in brand new marketing methods that generate leads and accelerate sales, ranging from email to social media. Before the revolution, small companies had to use conventional mediums like newspapers and radio to promote their products to customers. Now, brands can reach consumers online and target different customer segments.
The influx of new technologies has seen marketing evolve at lightning speed. In fact, 76 percent of people say that marketing has changed more in the last two years than in the previous 50. Some of the most popular internet marketing techniques in recent years include blogs, search engine optimization and video.
The rise of the internet has provided small brands with greater insights into their customers. Powerful analytics software lets users measure key performance metrics -- total sales, total leads, etc. -- and generate unparalleled business intelligence. Companies can now track marketing campaigns across multiple channels from a desktop or mobile device.
These programs forecast buying trends and make predictions based on customers' purchasing histories. The result? Small companies understand their customers better than ever before. Currently, 90 percent of global marketers say they focus on predictive analytics to target and engage important demographics.
The digital revolution has provided small businesses with new technologies that have transformed day-to-day operations. Companies can now handle digital payments, improve customer service, target customer segments with marketing material and gain valuable insights into their consumers. This revolution shows no signs of slowing, either. In 2016 alone, more than $3 trillion was spent on IT services, communications, devices, software and data center systems worldwide, while over $15 billion was invested in digital marketing in the United States.

More Luoyang Museum Pictures
Luoyang Museum located in downtown area, is a reflection of the rich history of Luoyang city. As a major Chinese cultural center, the city was the capital of more than a dozen ancient dynasties, such as the Xia (2100 -1600 B.C.), the East Zhou (770 - 256 B.C.). It experienced prosperous growth, making it one of the most affluent cities of the Tang Dynasty. To enlarge the space for the rich collection of relics, the new museum is completed and opened to the public in 2009, located in the south of Niewan Village, Anle Town, next to Sui (581 - 618) and Tang (618 - 907) Dynasty Ruins Botanical Gargen. Among its excellent selection of thousands of culture relics, the following are the best exhibits.
Firstly you will see a Gold Seal crafted during the West Jin Dynasty (265 - 316 A.D.) Its base is square and engraved with five Chinese characters in the style of seal cutting. You will find the layout and the design of this seal simple but orderly.
The Ceramic Glazed Teapot
A Ceramic Glazed Teapot comes second in Luoyang Museum. It has a flat bottom, a dragon-like handle and its body is primarily a brown ceramic glaze with grey-white spots, which gives the teapot an elegant appearance.
Tang Tri-colored Glazed Pottery
Speaking of the Tang Dynasty (618 - 907), you may know of the world-renowned Tang tri-colored glazed pottery, a type of pottery produced with three colorful ceramic glazes, namely yellow, green and blue and the Luoyang Museum exhibits such pottery, including this classic example of a plump and life-like woman; mirroring the female aesthetic of the Tang Dynasty. Careful inspection will reveal complicate craftwork of the Tang tri-color glazed pottery, and that she is in a long brown gown, coils her hair in a bun and has but light makeup.

A Small Jade Figurine
Next up is a small figurine crafted in jade. The figure is crouching on the floor with two hands crossing in front of his abdomen. He is a high cheek boned man with thick eyebrows and a wide mouth and his mysterious status is complemented by a mask over his face. His heart-shaped and short-sleeved garment is very valuable for researching the fashion of dress during the Warring States Dynasty (475 - 221 B.C.).
A Replica of 'Golden Throne'
The last piece you can't miss in Luoyang Museum is a replica of 'Golden Throne' sent by the Beijing Forbidden City. In China's ancient history the golden throne was used exclusively by successive Emperors in the Hall of Supreme Harmony (Taihedian) within the Forbidden City in Beijing. The replica, made at a ratio of 1:7, is carved with dragons and embedded with jade and ruby.
All in all, the exhibits from different dynasties displayed here number far, far more than the above-mentioned items. If you are an archaeological or historical enthusiast, the Luoyang Museum should definitely be incorporated in your travel plan.

Questions & Answers on Luoyang Museum
Asked by ELSIE96 | Dec. 10, 2015 03:20 Reply
Longmen station to Luoyang Musuem?
I heard that the Longmen Grottoes is closed till the 21st December? How do I get from Longmen Station to the Museum? Do I tell the taxi driver the new or old museum? What bus should I take or how much is a taxi? From the musuem I want to go to long distance bus station to take a bus to Shaolin. I noted that I should take the bus to Xuanchang and it will stop at Shaolin Temple? Thanks.
Answered by Julia from UNITED KINGDOM | Dec. 10, 2015 19:12
1. The Grottoes is closed from December 3rd to 20th for renovation.
2. Take bus line 49 from LM Station to Niewan South Station. Then, walk east for about 800 yards to your destination. By taxi, you need to tell the driver to take you to the new one, or you may show him/her the note "师傅,您好!我想去洛阳博物馆新馆,位于洛龙区聂泰路, 谢谢您!" for your convenience. The taxi fare may be CNY 16 to 20.
3. To go to Shaolin Temple: take bus line 68 from Niewan South Station to LY Railway Station. Then, you will see the City Bus Station to the opposite of the railway station. Then, take a coach to Shaolin Temple for CNY 19. The coaches are available from 5:30 to 12:30, and the duration is about 2 hours. By the way, the final station of the coach is Xuchang, not Xuanchang. :)
How to get to New Museum from Longmen Grottoes?By bus or taxi. How much would it cost by taxi?
How far is the museum to the bus station to Shaolin or Dengfeng?
Can we take a bus to Xuanchang and it will stop at Shaolin Temple? What's the time of the last bus?
Answered by Rita from SINGAPORE | Dec. 06, 2015 00:29
1. From the Grottoes, you can take bus no. 60 or K60 and get off at Jicui Nanjie Jicui Beijiekou. Then walk around 10min to the museum. By taxi, it costs CNY25 or around and the travel time is at most 20min.
2. It is around 7km/4mi to local Long-distance Bus Station where buses to Shaolin or Dengfeng are available. By taxi, it costs CNY15 or around.
3. Yes, buses to Xuchang pass the temple, so you can just ask to get off in front of the temple. The last bus leaves at 15:50 by the way.
May help!

How to get to Luoyang Museum from Longmen Grottoes?
Hello, I'd like to visit either here or White Horse Temple after I visit the Longmen Grottoes? Are there any buses that I can take to either place from Longmen? Thanks.
Answered by Andrew | Oct. 22, 2012 22:40
From Longmen Grottoes to the White Horse Temple, you can firstly take bus 53 to Guanlin and then take bus 56 or 58 to the White Horse Temple.
When go to the old museum, you can take bus 81 to Wangcheng Park and then take bus 77 to get there. When go to the new one, you can take bus 60 to the New District and transfer to bus 49 to Suitang Botanical Garden. Then walk ahead for about several minutes, you will find it.
Answered by Hilton | Oct. 24, 2012 01:46
Thanks, Andrew.
What's the exact location of the new museum?
Also, which is better- the old or the new one?
Hi, the new one is located in the north of Sui and Tang Heritage City Park.
Relatively, collections of the old one is being moved to the new one, so you may get a better look in the new one.
Asked by Inge from CHINA | Aug. 10, 2011 00:03 Reply
Is the old museum on Zhongzhou Lu still in use? And how far is the new museum from Luoyang?
Answered by Cindy from CHINA | Aug. 10, 2011 02:21
Didn't find any accurate information saying the old one is still in use or not. But most of the treasures have been moved and displayed in the new one. Not necessary to see the old one now.

Kim Dong-in (1900–1951) fue un escritor de Corea.

Biografía
Kim Dong-in nació el 2 de octubre de 1900 en Pyongyang, entonces parte del Imperio de Corea. Fue pionero del realismo y naturalismo en la literatura coreana moderna. Hijo de un adinerado terrateniente, cursó estudios superiores en Japón. Como muchos otros intelectuales coreanos, asistió a la Academia Meiji en Tokio y entró en la Escuela Kawabata de Bellas Artes. Abandonó la escuela al decidir que quería ser escritor. En Japón en 1919 Kim Dong-in y otros defensores de la "literatura en pos del arte por el arte" publicaron la influyente pero temporal publicación Creación (Changjo), junto con Joo Yohan, Jeon Yeongtaek, Choi Seungman y Kim Hwan. Creación se posicionó contra la literatura didáctica propuesta por Yi Kwang-su, Publicó su historia de debut "Las penas del débil" (Yakhanjaui seulpeum). En 1925 publicó una de sus obras más famosas, "Patata", que fue una ruptura en la ficción realista coreana y otra disputa en su guerra literaria con Yi Kwang-su.

Llevó una forma de vida extravagante (gracias a la herencia que recibió de su padre) hasta 1930, cuando sus finanzas empezaron a empeorar. Su situación financiera lo llevó a la drepesión y al uso de drogas. Hasta entonces Kim Dong-in fue un purista (coloquial y realista), pero empezó a escribir seriales de éxito, algo que antes había desdeñado. Entre éstos, una serie de novelas históricas. En 1934 publicó el primer estudio en profundidad de Yi Kwang-su, Estudio de Chunwon y en 1935 abrió la revista mensual Yadam.

En 1939, todavía pobre y enfermo, se unió a Park Yong-hui, Lim Hak-su y otros en una visita a Manchuria patrocinada por el Ejército Imperial del Norte de China. Esto fue claramente un acto de colaboracionismo y se considera, incluso en la Corea actual, una mancha en su carrera literaria. En 1942, sin embargo, Kim fue encarcelado bajo el cargo de alta traición al emperador de Japón.

En 1946, después de la liberación de Corea, tuvo un papel esencial en crear la Asociación Pancoreana de Escritores, que respondió a otras organizaciones de literatura proletaria.

En los años siguientes publicó relatos, incluido "El traidor" (Banyeokja, 1946) y "Crónica de un hombre sin país" (Manggugingi, 1947). Irónicamente, estas obras provocaron una crítica afilada de Yi Kwang-su y otros escritores que colaboraron con Japón durante la ocupación. Murió en su casa de Seúl el 5 de enero de 1951.

En 1955 la revista Mundo de pensamientos (Sasanggye) creó el Premio Dong-in de literatura para conmemorar sus logros literarios.

Obra

Kim Dong-in es conocido por sus relatos cortos, que combinan una sensibilidad estética exquisita con un estilo de prosa sucinta y una perspectiva objetiva. Llamó la atención primero con la publicación de historias de corte naturalista como "Un documento insigne" (Myeongmun, 1924), "Hwang el rústico" (Sigol Hwangseobang, 1925) y "Patata" (Gamja, 1921). En particular, Patata, que es la historia de una mujer que pierde gradualmente todo sentido de la honradez y degenera en una prostituta que intenta superar sus problemas económicos, se toma como ejemplo del uso del punto de vista realista y determinista del autor con el fin de desafiar la moral tradicional y el uso didáctico de la literatura defendido por el movimiento iniciado por Yi Kwang-su. En una época dominada por el movimiento proletario y la escuela de la nueva tendencia de pensamiento, cuando el arte se utilizaba en debates ideológicos y cambios sociales, Kim Dong-in mantuvo la visión de la estética pura y la autonomía de la literatura como arte. Este punto de vista se refleja en su ficción esteticista "Sonata apasionada"(Gwangyeom sonata, 1930) y en "El templo Gwanghwasa" (Gwanghwasa, 1930), que retratan a artistas locos en busca de la perfección artística.

Muchas de sus historias de han adaptado al cine. El escritor coreano Kim Seungok escribió el guion y dirigió la primera adaptación de "Patata" que se estrenó en 1968. La historia fue adaptada de nuevo en 1987 por el director Byeon Jang-ho. Otras obras que se han llevado a la gran pantalla son: Los jóvenes (1985), dirigida por Ko Seong-ui; Los dedos de los pies iguales (1976), dirigida por Kim Suyong; Sonata apasionada (1979), dirigida por Ko Young-nam; El templo Gwanghwa (1974), dirigida por Joo Dong-jin y Viaje en bote (1973) dirigida por Lee Kyu-hwan.

A civilized 2+2 coupe that follows in the footsteps of the old 400i and 412i models, the 456 series was introduced in 1993 and continues to give Ferrari owner an opportunity to thrill (or frighten) two rear-seat passengers, provided thy are not very tall. It's engine is shared with the 550 Maranello, only 49 bhp shy. Like the 550 Maranello, this car is a blast to drive. It will reach 60 mph in just over 5 seconds, which for a car that weights 2-tons is very good. 150 mph comes in less than 30 seconds. Remember that this car is not just a sports car, It's a sports luxury coupe. And actually this is the fastest luxury coupe available anywhere. With an estimated top speed of 185 mph, huge vented-discs brakes that can haul it to a stop from 60 mph in just 120 ft., and handling that befits a car displaying the prancing horse on its grille, the 456 can make time on almost any paved road you care to name. Fill its back seat and trunk with luggage, help your favorite traveling companion into the passenger seat and you're ready to devour the road to your favorite weekend getaway, in style. That is , after all, what GT cars are for.


Telephone users will welcome the news that the Bell Telephone Laboratories is experimenting with a new device that will eliminate the b-r-r-r-ing of present-day instruments. The gadget, using transistors, will produce pleasant musical tones resembling those of a clarinet. Sound emanates through the louvred area at the base of the set, shown in the photo with a white background.
This device requires less than 1 volt for operation; the ordinary telephone bell needs about 85 volts. A full-scale field trial of the new equipment is expected to provide enough technical data and customers' reactions to help determine its future.


Winding your own ball of yarn can be challenging; if you don't do it correctly it can easily become a pile of knots. Laura Zander from Jimmy Beans Wool shares her tips for winding yarn properly. Learn how to wind a center pull ball of yarn in this free knitting tutorial. You'll be transforming store-bought skeins into neat, compact balls of yarn in no time!
More often than not, it's the end of the day when I decide on a project and I don't have time to wind the yarn at the store. Here is a great way to wind your yarn into a center pull ball!
1. Uncoil your hank of yarn and hang it over a dining room chair.
2. Find the end of the hank and drape it over your index finger.
3. Using the yarn from the hank, create figure-8s around your index and middle fingers.
4. Continue wrapping the yarn in figure-8s around those 2 fingers - and be careful not to cross the yarn over the original end of the hank.
5. Once you've created a good sized core of figure-8s, you can start to wind the yarn around that core.
6. Now that you've wound the entire hank around the core, tuck in the end and you've got a center pull ball!
So, grab a fresh hank of yarn and give it a shot - you never know when you'll need to wind it yourself!!
Tutorial is not working, the ad for the survey keeps looping and I tried to get another tutorial, and the same thing happens.
I would object to the phrase, "you can wrap it fairly tight" as this will stretch your yarn and I find that if you pull any yarn tightly as you wrap it, once you have completed your project and wash it, the yarn will go back to its old unstretched shape and you will find your project sometimes a little bit smaller. You didn't shrink it in washing, it has just gone back to the original shape of the yarn. I wrap my yarn in a similar way, but start on my finger and always tell my students, "Do not pull or tighten the yarn as you wrap, but keep it loose" then explain the reason as above.

Residual analysis visually evaluates these assumptions and helps you to determine whether the regression model that has been selected is appropriate. The residual, or estimated error value, is the difference between the observed and predicted values of the dependent variable for a given value of residual appears on a scatter plot as the vertical distance between an observed value and the prediction line. After fitting a particular model to a time series, you plot the residuals over the n time periods.
