The Russian White, Russian Black, and Russian Tabby are breeds of cat created in 1971, derived from the Russian Blue. The Black and Tabby Russians came from the original mating which created the Russian White. It is appropriate to consider their origins first.
The Russian White Program
In the UK, Frances McLeod of Arctic began breeding Russian Whites and Russian Blacks in the 1960s.
In Australia, The Russian White program started on the 4 May 1971 by Dick and Mavis Jones of Myemgay Cattery. Below is an excerpt from an article by Mavis Jones.

Russian wine refers to wine made in the Russian Federation and to some extent wines made in the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics though this later referencing is an inaccurate representation of wines from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine. The phrase Russian wine more properly refers to wine made in the southern part of the Russian Federation-including the areas around Dagestan, Chechnya, Kabardino-Balkaria, Krasnodar Krai, Rostov, and Stavropol Krai. Russia currently has the following controlled appellations that correspond to the sorts of grapes: Sibirkovy (Сибирьковый), Tsimlyanski Cherny (Цимлянский чёрный), Plechistik (Плечистик),Narma (Нарма), and Güliabi Dagestanski (Гюляби Дагестанский).
Wild grape vines have grown around the Caspian, Black and Azov seas for thousands of years with evidence of viticulture and cultivation for trade with the Ancient Greeks found along the shores of the Black Sea at Phanagoria and Gorgippia. It is claimed that the Black Sea area is the world's oldest wine region.

Russians (Russian: русские, russkiye) are an East Slavic ethnic group native to Russia, who speak the Russian language and primarily live in Russia. They are the most numerous ethnic group in Russia constituting more than 80% of the country's population according to the census of 2010, and the most numerous ethnic group in Europe.
Ethnonym
There are two Russian words which are commonly translated into English as "Russians". One is "русские" (russkiye), which most often means "ethnic Russians". Another is "россияне" (rossiyane), which means "citizens of Russia". The former word refers to ethnic Russians, regardless of what country they live in and irrespective of whether or not they hold Russian citizenship. Under certain circumstances this term may or may not extend to denote members of other Russian-speaking ethnic groups from Russia, or from the former Soviet Union. The latter word refers to all people holding citizenship of Russia, regardless of their ethnicity, and does not include ethnic Russians living outside of Russia. Translations into other languages often do not distinguish these two groups.

A journal (through French from Latin diurnalis, daily) has several related meanings:
a daily record of events or business; a private journal is usually referred to as a diary
a newspaper or other periodical, in the literal sense of one published each day
many publications issued at stated intervals, such as academic journals (including scientific journals), or the record of the transactions of a society, are often called journals. In academic use, a journal refers to a serious, scholarly publication that is peer-reviewed. A non-scholarly magazine written for an educated audience about an industry or an area of professional activity is usually called a trade magazine.
The word "journalist", for one whose business is writing for the public press and nowadays also other media, has been in use since the end of the 17th century.
Public journal
A public journal is a record of day-by-day events in a parliament or congress. It is also called minutes or records.
Business and accounting
The term "journal" is also used in business:

A plain bearing (in railroading sometimes called a solid bearing) is the simplest type of bearing, comprising just a bearing surface and no rolling elements. Therefore the journal (i.e., the part of the shaft in contact with the bearing) slides over the bearing surface. The simplest example of a plain bearing is a shaft rotating in a hole. A simple linear bearing can be a pair of flat surfaces designed to allow motion; e.g., a drawer and the slides it rests on or the ways on the bed of a lathe.
Plain bearings, in general, are the least expensive type of bearing. They are also compact and lightweight, and they have a high load-carrying capacity.
The design of a plain bearing depends on the type of motion the bearing must provide. The three types of motions possible are:
Journal (friction, radial or rotary) bearing: This is the most common type of plain bearing; it is simply a shaft rotating in a bearing. In locomotive and railroad car applications a journal bearing specifically referred to the plain bearing once used at the ends of the axles of railroad wheel sets, enclosed by journal boxes (axleboxes).Axlebox bearings today are no longer plain bearings but rather are rolling-element bearings.

"The FBI doesn't fool around and you don't get leaks out of the FBI unless there is something to the leaks," said Morning Joe veteran columnist Mike Barnicle during a conversation about the ongoing investigation into the Trump Administration's contact with Russia during the campaign and currently. "You have FBI field offices in Pittsburgh, San Francisco and FBI counterintelligence teams in Washington, D.C. all honing in on one specific thing: Contacts between Trump's people during the campaign and the Trump administration today. You've had (National Security Advisor) Mike Flynn already leave because of something having to do with Russia obviously. Now you have the President's own personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, a lawyer outside of government, acting as de facto Secretary of State. All of this a combustible concoction of chaos. Where is Secretary of State Rex Tillerson in all of this?" Hear more about the investigation here and a promise from Republican Senator Lindsey Graham (S.C.) that "2017 is going to be a year of kicking Russia in the ass in Congress."

Buy, Borrow, Bypass: Murder, They Wrote
Rincey Abraham 10-13-14
Every October, I enjoy picking up spooky, thrilling, bloody books to really get into the Halloween spirit. All of the books I recently picked up have surrounded the theme of murder.
The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher: A Shocking Murder and the Undoing of a Great Victorian Detective by Kate Summerscale
This non-fiction book follows the murder of a three-year-old boy, Saville Kent, that takes place in 1860s England. At this time, detectives were a relatively new division to Scotland Yard and many of the techniques and stereotypes we associate with inspectors had yet to even start. The detective on the case, Mr. Whicher, is said to be the inspiration behind many literary detectives, including Sherlock Holmes.
The story is engaging in the way that all murder mysteries are engaging, but the book often felt more like an academic paper on detectives during the time period than a true crime book. It is very clear that Kate Summerscale did her research on the time period and the murder because the book is extremely detailed, but it also included a lot of unnecessary details about the time period that really broke up the pacing of the story.
Verdict: Borrow if you are really interested in late 19th century England and love to see the inspiration behind the quintessential British mystery, otherwise Bypass.
Ripper by Isabel Allende
Isabel Allende is one of those authors I have heard great things about for a long time, but had yet to read anything that she had written. When I recently found out that she wrote a mystery novel, I figured that would as good as place as any to start. Unfortunately, I was wrong.
The story follows a mother and her daughter: Indiana, a free-spirited woman who works as a holistic healer, and Amanda, a teenager who is obsessed with the dark and morbid and loves to learn as much as she can about murders and death. There is also a large cast of characters who are part of Amanda's circle who are also obsessed with murder, and with this prophecy of a bloodbath that is set to come to the town. They attempt to solve the prophecy through an RPG game called Ripper.
All of the characters in this story feel very flat and very simple. Some of the descriptions in this book felt borderline offensive. The writing didn't do much for me, and a significant amount of the storyline seemed to focus on Indiana and her love triangle and less on the actual mystery elements. Because Isabel Allende is Chilean* and writes in Spanish, part of me wonders if the story just wasn't translated well and that is why I couldn't connect. But in the end, I had to put this one aside because I could not find myself caring about any of the characters.
Verdict: Bypass
I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga
I loooove fictional serial killer stories, so I was very excited to see how a young adult version would play out. The story follows Jasper "Jazz" Dent, who is the son of one of the most infamous serial killers, Billy Dent. Billy taught his young son a lot about the rules of being a serial killer, in the hopes of creating his own protégé. However, Billy eventually got caught and now Jazz is a teenager trying to figure out whether or not he is truly his father's son or if he can forge his own path. At the same time, a string of murders pop up in the small town again, and Jazz uses his insider knowledge to try to help the police catch the killer.
The mystery aspect was relatively straight-forward. Although there are a few suspects mentioned in the story, it seemed relatively simple to figure it out. For me, the most interesting part of the story was watching Jazz's internal struggle as he tried to resist the path that his father took, but also wondered if it was inevitable. The story ended in a way that I wasn't expecting, but that is mostly because I didn't realize this was book one in a series. Overall, this was a really fun, fast read and I'm interested to see where the rest of the series goes.
Verdict: Buy if you are into young adult thrillers.

Adventures of a Comic Book Newbie: Tell Me About Comic Book Publishers


Sometimes I just feel wonder why I always fallin in love with someone that would never reply my feeling. I love my gay friend, and now I love my tutor (he is married). It really hurt to love someone but you cannot have it, no matter what. I will not flirt with my tutor in any chance. Just looking at him is enough. I hope I will take another class of him next spring semester. And for mygay friend, what I could do, None.

What Was the First Shoe That Got You Into Sneaker Culture?
Our favorite looks from Sneaker Week PDX.
"I remember my mom got me a pair of Nike Cortez shoes that immediately ripped, so soon after, I got a pair of Nike Air Force 1 lows—white and silver with the mesh. Also, being from D.C., New Balance were really special to me growing up."
"I remember going to the Nike employee store when I was a kid and getting what I thought were a pair of OG Nike Air Max 90 Infrareds. It turns out they weren't the OG models, but that got me really into knowing the differences between them, and getting more and more."
"For me, it was the Nike Air Flight Determinations. It was the first shoe I ever bought in multiple colorways."
"Kind of an odd one, but the Nike Ndestrukts were the shoes that really set it off for me."
"When I was in seventh grade, I got the Air Max Plus models in a blue and yellow colorway. That was the first time I saw other people interested in collecting a pair of shoes I owned. It made me realize there was a passion and culture around sneakers, and I started connecting more and more with people about them on old social media platforms like NikeTalk and Myspace."
"When I was 14, I got a plug on some Bapestas, and everyone at school made fun of me 'cause they all thought they were bootleg Air Force 1s. The next summer, though, Bathing Ape hit hard in the U.S. and everyone wanted them all of the sudden."
"I'd say around 2013 when I first bought a pair of Bred 1s with my own money."
"I'd say the Jordan 11 and 12s. Also gotta add the very first Allen Iverson models that came out through Reebok."
"I'm an exchange student here from Japan, but for me, my favorite sneaker, and the one that got me into sneakers, were the Jordan Cement 4s."

UCLA emerges from bye in great position to win Pac-12 South
"UCLA wide receiver Jordan Payton, right, celebrates with teammate wide receiver Mossi Johnson (14) after catching a pass for a 70 yard touchdown against the Arizona Wildcats in the second half of a NCAA college football game at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif., Saturday, Nov. 1, 2014. (Photo by Keith Birmingham/ Pasadena Star-News) "
By Jack Wang | jwang@scng.com | Daily News
PUBLISHED: November 16, 2014 at 8:24 pm | UPDATED: August 30, 2017 at 7:26 am
For all its missteps, the UCLA football team emerged from its bye week and somehow found itself on the cusp being the top-10 team everyone expected. It is again in full control of its destiny in a crowded Pac-12 South. It even has an outside shot at ‑ don't laugh ‑ the College Football Playoff.
That the last statement no longer sounds completely ludicrous speaks to the bizarre trajectory of the Bruins' season.
Ranked No. 7 in the country in the preseason AP poll, UCLA opened the year with unconvincing victories against Virginia, Memphis and Texas. A 62-27 blowout of Arizona State briefly quelled the criticism, but back-to-back losses to Utah and Oregon dropped the Bruins out of the poll entirely. At that point, Jim Mora's team seemed on track for a disappointing eight-win regular season, one that would have left fans calling for heads to roll.
Four consecutive victories later, and the No. 11 Bruins head into Saturday's 5 p.m. kickoff against USC playing some of their best football yet. Win two more games, and they'll earn another shot at the No. 3 Ducks at Levi's Stadium next month.
They didn't get here on their own.
The most important domino fell on Saturday night, when Arizona State quarterback Taylor Kelly threw a pick-six to Oregon State's Michael Doctor ‑ one that pushed the Beavers to a 35-27 upset in Corvallis. That loss created a Pac-12 South gridlock: five teams remain mathematically alive for the division title, and four of them have just two conference losses.
The Bruins (8-2, 5-2) are best positioned to maneuver out of that traffic jam. They hold head-to-head tiebreakers over both ASU and Arizona, and will have a better conference record than both USC and Utah if they win out.
Should it then upset Oregon for the Pac-12 title, UCLA would have to sit and pray that the playoff selection committee deems it worthy for one of four spots.
A two-loss conference champion is at severe risk of being shut out of the field, but working in the Bruins' favor is just how much the committee seems to operate on Pacific Standard Time. In the latest playoff rankings, every Pac-12 team that appeared was ranked higher than it was in the AP poll two days earlier ‑ with the Ducks and the Sun Devils leading the pack at second and sixth, respectively.
When the committee reorders the list again Tuesday, UCLA will almost certainly be in the top 10. Four of the teams that ranked higher last week hail from the SEC West, and one ‑ Auburn ‑ just picked up its third loss. The Tigers still play Alabama in two weeks, while Ole Miss and Mississippi State will face each other the same day. A bit of intra-division cannibalism there would do the Bruins some good, as would a second loss by Ohio State, Baylor and TCU.
Of course, this could all come crashing down again. UCLA has games left against the No. 24 Trojans and Stanford, and while it is a likely favorite against both, either opponent could spoil the Bruins' dreams with an upset at the Rose Bowl.
But after being left for dead a month ago, Mora summed up their position best in his postgame speech after beating Washington, caught by Pac-12 Networks cameras.
"Everything is out there for us," Mora told the team. "Everything."

English administration in Ireland (1392-1393)
This roll of proceedings of the King's Council in Ireland from June 1392 to April 1393, in the 16th year of the reign of Richard II, survived among the archives of the Marquis of Ormode; it was transcribed by the Reverend James Graves, and published in 1877 as a volume in the Chronicles and Memorials series. Part of the record is in Latin, part in French, and Graves provided translations into English for all the French text. The record is mainly of commissions, letters of protection, and fiats for registration on the Patent Roll. Some related documents from the British Museum and the Public Record Office are transcribed in the appendix, including an inspeximus of 1444 with the names of burgesses of Drogheda.

Yorkshire Testators and Legatees (1484-1508)
Wills and testaments from the diocese of York (Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire, Hexhamshire, Lancashire north of the Ribble, and southwest Westmorland) registered at York. Richmond and Southwell archdeaconries had their own lower probate jurisdictions, so the wills registered at York are predominantly from the East and West Ridings and the eastern part of the North Riding of Yorkshire. In theory, wills dealt with real property and testaments with personal property, but the distinction hardly applies in practice: most of these wills are in Latin, but some are in English. Being before the Reformation, they commonly start with benefactions to churches, chantries, chapels, &c., and with provisions for the burning of candles ('lights') and saying of masses. This publication in 1869 by the Surtees Society as Testamenta Eboracensia iv is an edition by James Raine of selected wills from the period. Some additional material is included from the Prerogative Court of Canterbury and the York Dean and Chapter archives.
Seacroft Billmen (1539)
In anticipation of war with France, Henry VIII ordered a general muster of able-bodied men throughout the kingdom. That for the wapentake of Skyrack, in the West Riding of Yorkshire, took place at Wike (near Leeds) before sir William Gascoigne the elder, sir William Middleton and sir William Maleverer, on 26 March 1539. Skyrack wapentake consisted of the ancient parishes of Aberford, Adel, Bardsey, Barwick in Elmet, Bingley, Collingham, Garforth, Guiseley, Harewood, (part of) Ilkley, Kippax, Otley, Swillington and Thorner, as well as the borough of Leeds. This muster roll listing the archers, billmen and spearmen of the wapentake by township or constablewick, was preserved among the State Papers in the Public Record Office; it was edited by W. Paley Baildon, and printed in three issues of the Miscellanea of the Thoresby Society (volumes 4 and 9) through to 1899. For each township there is a list of archers, divided into those fully and those partly ('parcel') armoured ('harnessed'), and a similar list of billmen; a few spearmen also appear. The weapon of the billmen - the bill or halberd - was a blade with a long wooden handle, sometimes with a hook with a cutting edge added at one side.
Tradesmen of York (1272-1558)
No man or woman could trade in the city of York without having obtained 'freedom' of the city.Their names were recorded on the 'Freemen's Roll', or Register of the Freemen of the City of York, which contains about 19,900 names for this period. A list of names was prepared for each year, the year being here reckoned as starting at Michaelmas (29 September) until 1373, and thence at Candlemas (2 February). Each annual list starts with the name of the mayor and the camerarii or chamberlains. The chamberlains were freemen charged with the duty of receiving the fees of the new freemen; of seeing that only freemen traded in the city; and of preparing this roll, which was compiled from the names on their own account books from the receipts for the fees. There are three groups of freemen: those who obtained freedom after serving out an apprenticeship to a freeman; the children of freemen; and those who claimed freedom by 'redemption', i. e. by purchase or gift from the Mayor and Court of Aldermen.
London and Middlesex Feet of Fines (1485-1569)

Hastings family deeds (1100-1600)
John Harley of the Historical Manuscripts Commission was invited by Reginald Rawdon Hastings to examine his family's extensive archives at the Manor House, Ashby de la Zouche, in Leicestershire. Harley produced a detailed calendar, of which is the first volume, published in 1928, Hastings himself having since died, and Harley having been killed at Gallipoli. This volume covers four categories of the records: the Ancient Deeds; Manorial and other Documents; Accounts and Inventories; and Miscellaneous Papers. Most, but not all, of the material is mediaeval. About half of the deeds relate to the family property in Leicestershire; then there are sections for Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Northamptonshire, Lincolnshire, Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Yorkshire, Northumberland, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire, Huntingdonshire, London, Wiltshire, Somersetshire, Devonshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, &c. The manorial section includes a partitions of the estates of the Earls of Leicester and Wilton about 1204 and 1277; manor court rolls are mentioned, but not extracted. Choicer items from the family accounts and inventories are copied in extenso for 1596 and 1607, and thereafter summarised. Most of the later material is merely dipped into for curiosities.

Name David Blank
Born 6 Jan 1817 Gestorf, Germany
Biography Came from Hannover County to Reminghausen in 1850. Moved to Horn and bought the house in 1858. He was well off as a landowner, farmer and grain dealer. He was a citizen, having paid the tax for citizenship papers (Buergergeld).
In 1855, there were approximately 1855 people, mostly Protestant living in Horn. There were also a few Catholics and 72 Jews. The house was still in existence in 1970 having been converted to an exclusive restaurant. The left beam has a latin quotation: Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethern to dwell together in unity. ( Psalms 133) The right beam on top of the store has a German quotation: The Lord is with me, I will not fear, what can man do to me (Psalms 118)
BLANK FAMILY
Prepared by Ruth Blank wife of Fritz Blank, grandson of David Blank
When we came to live in Montreal, an old Jew, noticing during services that he was a newcomer, asked Fritz his name. When told the old Jew immediately said, You come from Odessa, Russia" "No," said Fritz. "Your father came from Odessa." Again, the answer was no. "Your grandfather came from Odessa." Again, no. "You are a liar the old man said.
We can effectively trace the genealogy of the Blank Family back to 1672, to the small towns and villages of Hannover - at that time an independent kingdom, after 1866 a province of Prussia - and Lippe Detmold-founded by a princely family and made a principality (like Monaco) in 1720 and then a republic of Germany in November 1918. In 1945 Lippe was incorporated in North Rhine -Westphalia. But who knows what happened before 1648, when the Treaty of Westphalia was concluded after the Thirty Years' War and expulsions of Jews were the main order of the day.
Although Lippe was off the beaten path of the Middle Ages, we find traces here and there of a few Jews who lived there as early as 1297. One was an Augustin friar who converted to a judaizing sect of the time. He was arrested in Paris and burned alive. In 1343 a report on some astronomical figures concerning the calendar was written by a Chajjim Titmold (from Detmold most probably). In 1374 a Jew called. Vivus de Lemgo (obviously from the town of Lemgo) and his family were granted the right of residence in Dortmund for a period of 6 years. He had to pay a yearly tax, one for the Count of the province and one for the city of Dortmund.
The oldest right of residence paper (Judenschutzbrief) still in existence dates from 1500. It was given to Anshel the Jew, his wife and servants to live in Detmold~ He must have rendered unusual services to the County, because he was given the privilege to move elsewhere if he so wanted. Much later, when many Jews lived in Lippe, this privilege was very seldom granted.
Lippe was a small princedom. The reigning princes in the 17th and 18th centuries wanted to emulate the French Court, but their revenues being modest, they needed added income. It was to be increased by the Jews. They were assigned to revive the commerce shaken by the Thirty Years' War when army and foreign occupation destroyed these regions.
One of those Court Jews was a certain Isaac and his son Israel. Isaac received the residence rights in 1552 in Salzufeln, (Lippe) by Count Simon IV. He must have been well off because he owned a lot of land. Isaac and his son became economic and political advisers of the Count, but they did not get along as well with the Salzufeln people. Continual quarrels ended up with the expulsion of Isaac and another Jew, Abraham Rub and his family from Salzufeln in 1587. The order came from an assembly of the notables of the town. But the dissensions did not end there and in 1599 the Count obliged the reticent notables to grant the residence papers to Israel (son of Isaac). The rights were never automatically carried over from parents to children.
Later on Isaac got his rights renewed and after that the whole parentage, so that more than 30 families gradually came to Lippe and established themselves in the surrounding villages near Salzufeln. Isaac was engaged in even more important financial operations for the Count. In 1610 Isaac and Israel were offered a horse along with the guarantee that feed would be at their disposal at all times. In 1613 the Count died.
The town council confronted with enormous debts incurred by the Count, took possessions and money from the Jews. Isaac and Israel, leaders of the Jews in Lippe, were thrown into prison, while other Jews were deported. But after 27 weeks in prison, the two were fined and released. A Count tried to have the fine reduced.
They left Lippe for other cities and finally landed in Prague. There in 1614 they asked the authorities in Lippe for the restitution of their stolen possessions, claiming they had been granted protection in Lippe - rights of residence. The Thirty Years' War stopped the proceedings. In the meantime, Isaac and Israel died. Israel's children took the lawsuit again. In 1659, Emperor Leopold I intervened for the son of Israel, a butler at the Court of Vienna, the converted Carl Damiani. In 1671 he finally received a small sum in Vienna, at a time when Jews had long since returned to Lippe.
We know officially of more than 60 Hofjuden (Court Jews) residing in Lippe between 1580 and 1823. Besides money they supplied the Counts with coins, jewelry, tobacco, cattle and meat. Some were bank agents, seal-engravers; one was a lottery office keeper. This was a thin upper crust and underneath were the vagrants and beggars who lacked the rights of residence. Others may have peddled stolen goods and still others may have been organized bands of robbers and thieves. Not a few converted to Christianity and made clever use of the chance to have a foot in both the Christian and Jewish camps. Some again were simply average Schnorrers who appealed to the charity of one Jewish Community after another. They were housed in beggars' hostels and given the Zettel (receipts) to receive meals at Jewish households.
But between 1648 and 1858 - date of the official emancipation of the Jews - the average member of a Jewish village community in Lippe was vested with the residence rights. However, he was not free to change residence. He could pursue a trade. He was allowed to slaughter animals for the household like everybody else, except that he had to conform to the ritual slaughtering of kosher animals and sell the parts of the animal he would not eat.
Often the rights were granted to relatives of those already residing in the County. They had to be renewed at first every year and later depending on where you lived, every 10 years. Many rules and conditions were attached to them concerning trade, leasing, borrowing relationships with Christians on their festivals, on our festivals, the payment of taxes and dues, the month before maturity and the rights of the widow in case of remarriage, etc. No less than exemplary conduct was expected of the Jews.
It is hard to determine when exactly the Jews were permitted to a home and land. In Horn Lippe, it was not before the 19th century with restrictions as to location. They were assigned one portion of the main street in Horn: the Mittelstrasse. Indeed Blank's house can be seen on that street. The natives called that part of the street der Judenort (Jewish square). One Jewish owner in Lippe, happy to own a house, decorated it in the same fashion as was the town custom then except that on the front outside beams of the house he put a Hebrew verse: "Blessed shall you be in your comings and blessed shall you be in your goings", then he signed his name and the Jewish date. His signature and the Jewish date were also included. The homeowner had to pay a tax to the mayor, business tax and a tax for the protection of the town (or become a guard himself)
In 1684, the Jews requested the services of a Rabbi. Until then an influential Court Jew was handling their affairs or interceding on their behalf with the Count. The Jewish community was growing and in 1720 they had a treasury, trustees and delegates to the authorities. The tax load was growing with amendments and conditions that varied from case to case and year to year. To mention a few: If a Jew wanted to marry he had to receive permission. Musicians at the wedding had to apply to receive a certain fee for their services. The death tax was a little lower than the marriage. Authorities knew that fortunes could be lost. No death taxes were levied for poor Jews or infants. Then there was a visitors' tax, and a tax for Christian ministers that each homeowner had to pay in case of baptism or death. Of course it was exacted from Jews as well. Instead of the priestly vestment fee, the Jews gave the minister an 8 lb. veal roast. A rather unusual, was the delivery of the tongue of each slaughtered cow to the Count.
Evidently, the Jewish community, being overburdened with taxes and taking care of their own poor members was constantly in debt. It meant that besides the regular taxes they had to put aside a sum for the arrears, or they were threatened with deportation. In one case, in Horn, they had to deliver pewter dishes, candlesticks and copperware to clear a debt. The Counts were chronically in debt and were constantly begging for higher revenues. They became the terror of the entire population.
On the occupational side, the village Jews were more than willing to avail themselves of new opportunities, but the obstacles were formidable. Money lending was left for hundreds of years to the Jew. Usury was forbidden to Christians by medieval law, but the Jew, prevented by law of the Torah from lending upon usury other than strangers, was thus able to make a living, to have a parnassah. This explains the frequent occurrence of a particular trade among the village Jews.
Many were cattle and horse dealers, but almost by force of circumstance, they offered the services of a banker in the villages. If a farmer had money he would not buy his cattle from the Jewish dealer, after all there were also plenty of non-Jewish cattle dealers to be found. But when he was in need of credit, he turned to the Jewish dealer, who often had to wait a very long time until he received payment both for his merchandise and for his services. Some Jews peddled ribbons, buttons, aprons and accessories in a neighbouring village because the potato field, the pear tree, the goat and the chicken that were all he owned, were not sufficient to make a living.
In the end, often at the urging of their sons, they would give up the goats and chickens and open a dry goods store. By and large those who owned land - planted with wheat, rye, barley and oats - did so chiefly to support their cattle trade. While the Jewish retailer and wholesaler - mostly textiles - was almost always a respected citizen, the wealthy Jewish cattle dealers, prominently engaged in real estate dealings - especially division of larger peasants' holdings into single lots-did not always enjoy a good relations among Jews or Christians.
Wherever Jews settled, the first thing they negotiated after the terms of settlement had been fixed was the acquisition of a burial ground. In Lemgo (Lippe), for example, the existing Jewish cemetery did not originally belong to the Jewish community. In 1721 a Court Jew bought it, but Jews who wanted to bury their dead on his burial ground had to ask for a special permit. That rule was even extended later on to the heirs of the owner. As far as synagogues are concerned there were some even before the expulsion of the Jews from Lippe in 1511 and 1545. We know that the Count gave his consent to the famous Isaac we spoke about earlier, when he wanted to build a synagogue behind his house. He even offered the wood for the construction of it.
The biggest Jewish community in 1666 was concentrated in Detmold. The Jews from the neighbouring villages were allowed to pray there on high holidays. The synagogue was actually a house rented from the city and converted into a synagogue or a prayer room. The oldest such synagogue - end of the 16th century - and still existing in the middle of the 19th century, was the one in Horn. It had then to be taken down and a beautiful synagogue was erected in 1856. The inauguration was an event for the Jews and also the Christian population who participated in it. The government offered a contribution for the building of the synagogue.
Adjacent to the synagogue we find the Jewish school. In those times, schools were mainly teaching Jewish subjects and religion besides writing. The Jewish children being taught how to write were one step ahead of Christians until school attendance became compulsory later on. In 1808 Jewish schools added the curriculum of the public schools to their parochial subjects.
The teacher had a special status. First of all he was not only a teacher but also an acting Rabbi so to speak, a schochet and a hazzan. They were mostly bachelors, did not need residence rights and supplemented their income with private tutoring. Sometimes a few parents shared one teacher for their children. Around 1760, the Jews in Lippe were still struggling to make ends meet. The County did not look favorably upon teachers who wanted to get married, or did not come to the County with a substantial contract. They were also forbidden to pursue a business on the side. But Jews were inventive and ingenious in eking out a living under the most difficult circumstances. The teachers married outside Lippe and they supplemented their teacher's salary in a variety of ways, be it rewards for mishaberachs, marriage brokerage, archival enquiries, representative of insurance companies, the selling of lottery tickets and if they knew how to read and write in German, they were chosen by the administration of the County to take care of the Jewish birth and death registry.
How did the village Jews manage to retain their human dignity despite the often-vicious intentions of neighbors and governments of countless centuries The essential point which determined the personality of the rural Jew (Landjude) was a simple, deep-seated and genuine feeling of both awe and love of God. A genuine piety (echte Religiositat). The Jews in the villages did not even attempt to define their attitude toward religion. The feelings were anchored with unswerving faith in Jewish tradition.
A Jew would put on his Tephilin in the train unselfconsciously in the presence of non-Jews. He would not have started the day without a minyan. Instinctively he knew that having publicly worshipped God, he was part of the Khal Israel, as he was a citizen of his country, whether he confessed it or not.
That emotional-religious attitude of the village Jew made him strong and resistant, a quality not found in the cities. City life often contributed to a faster deterioration of religious Judaism, but the same Jewish village communities simply lived according to ancient traditions and handed them on to the next generation, not by teaching them from a historical perspective but by practising them in their daily lives.
One has to realise that Judaism developed as the religion of a farming people. The festivals are built around the agricultural rhythm of ancient Israel and the agricultural religious laws in the Talmud testify to the fact that Jewish people had been in the beginning of their history a nation of farmers. The agricultural cycle was a present reality for the village Jew who dealt daily in the miracle of food production.
There is no doubt that the development of technical civilization would have eventually drawn the village Jew into closer contact with the city where the bonds of religious devotion might have slowly weakened and dissolved. But as far as the history of the 19th and early 20th centuries is concerned, one cannot overestimate the strong emotional resources that grew and were preserved in the quiet agricultural environment of the village.
We hope that this flashback into the lives of the Jews in Lippe will render the following genealogical tree of the Blank family more alive and friendly.

David Blank, owner of the house, came from Hannover County to Remminghausen in 1850, from there he moved to Horn and bought the house in 1858. He was well off and besides being a Landowner and a farmer, he was a grain dealer. He was a citizen and paid the tax for the citizenship papers. (Buergergeld). In 1858 there were 1855 mostly Protestant town people in Horn, a few Catholics and 72 Jews. The building was still in existence in 1960-70 and converted into an exclusive restaurant.

Storybook Ending
Let me ask you something.
If you could have your choice of the end result of a particular baseball game, what would it be? If the gods came down and said, "Listen [your name here], I know you're going to this game tonight, and you've never been to this stadium, and probably won't ever come again. How would you like the game to turn out?" ...you'd ask for a win for the home team, right? Assuming, of course that it does not otherwise much matter to you who wins, just that the environment would be fun and memorable, the first thing you'd ask for is victory.
But what if you could script out the whole game? What if you had every possible option at your disposal? If you could make virtually every aspect of this game turn out practically any way you want it, how would it go?
Well, since you asked, I'll tell you: It would go exactly like the San Francisco Giants / Colorado Rockies game went last Friday night.
Sold out stadium with a beautiful view of the San Francisco bay? No problem.
Forty thousand screaming fans? Done.
Free hat? Uh-huh.
Dramatic, come-from-behind, victory for the home team? Yep.
Bottom of the ninth inning, two-out, full-count, walk off home run? Got one of those too.
Oh, and just for good measure, it was hit by Superman.
My wife and I were out in SF visiting a couple of friends who moved out there last year, and they made the mistake of asking me if there was anything in particular I'd like to do while we're out here, just for this 5-day weekend. "Gosh," I thought to myself, "what would I like to do?" As you might imagine, it took all of about a nanosecond for Self to smack me in the head and yell, "Go see a ballgame, dummy!"
So Self and my wife and our two friends and I got tickets to see the Giants-Rockies game Friday night. Personally, it would not have mattered a whole lot to me who was pitching or anything else, as long as Barry Bonds was healthy and playing. He was. So I didn't much mind that the two starting pitchers, Brett Tomko and Shawn Estes, coming into the game, had combined to allow nearly 12 earned runs per nine innings. Amazingly, they both pitched fairly well. Of course, most of the Giants, besides Barry Bonds, can't hit their way out of a paper bag, and neither can most of the Rockies once they get placed in sea-level air, so let's not give the Cy Young Award to Estes or Tomko just yet. But still, it surprised me that neither of them sucked very much.
Speaking of sucking: The Giants' "Offense".
The San Francisco Giants, even with the single most significant offensive force known to man, have scored fewer runs this season than every team in MLB except the Devil Rays and the Expos, who both really suck, in case you've been under a rock or something for the last few years. So you can imagine how bad the rest of the Giant hitters must be, if His Awesomeness can only manage to carry the rest of them up to a #27 ranking.
My wife and friends, unlike Self and I, are not particularly baseball fans. In fact, my wife practically can't stand it, though to her infinite credit, she suffers my talking about it much better than I would suffer her telling me as often about, say, knitting. The friends we went to visit are not really sports fans at all, except for golf, and that's just the guy. His wife had never been to any kind of professional sporting event at all, so you can imagine how excited we all were at how this little escapade concluded.
Since my friends aren't much into baseball, their relative ignorance afforded me the opportunity to talk (entirely too much, I'm sure) about the game, its players and history. I got to explain park effects a little, since the Rockies, the poster-children for home/road splits, were in town. I got to explain some of the history of ballparks, since we were in a new one that replaced one of the old ones but had been designed to look and feel like a really old one. (They call that "retro" by the way.) And before the game, during the Rockies' batting practice, I got to explain how Roger Clemens, who was pitching for Houston, on the big scoreboard beyond centerfield, was probably the best pitcher of the last half century, and that we would get to see the best hitter of that span play live tonight.
And oh, did he play. Bonds' has easily led all of MLB in walks each of the last several years, and this year is no exception. At the start of last Friday's game, he had 16 more than the next closest player, Adam Dunn, who is a walking machine himself, despite roughly 40 fewer plate appearances. This strength of Bonds' performance as a ballplayer, that pitchers literally fear to challenge him, is also somewhat of a weakness in terms of his performance as an entertainer. To a novice, few things could seem like more of a let-down than having someone talk up how great a hitter Barry Bonds is, to have him swagger up to the plate with his music blasting over the PA system, his very presence threatening to break the game open, the pitcher standing in a puddle of his own pee on the mound, and then to have him walk on four pitches. Thankfully, we didn't have to see that, as Bonds went 3-for-5, with two singles despite the infield shift the Rockies used.
The rest of the Giants hitters, as I mentioned, aren't much with the stick. The only hitter other than Bonds having anything resembling a decent year is Marquis Grissom, with a .300-ish average but few walks or steals and not a lot of power. Edgardo Alfonzo and A.J. Pierzynski (who didn't start) have respectable averages and a little patience, but no power, and Pedro Feliz is only doing as well as he is because Bonds has already been on-base in front of him about 100 times this season. Several other players are hitting in the low .200s, or, in the case of backup backstop Yorvit Torrealba, the low, low .200's, like .182. Neifi Perez, I explained to my friends and wife, is so bad that I regularly use the term "sub-Neifi" to describe a particularly horrendous offensive performer, like say, Derek Jeter's first two months this year.
So you can imagine my surprise when they kept getting runners on base throughout the game…and then my dismay as they, not too surprisingly, ended each inning without a run crossing the plate. However, the Rockies' bullpen did not seem to mind that they were not expected to suck, since they weren't at Coors Field, so they went ahead and sucked anyway.
Rockies' closer Shawn Chacon started the ninth inning having only to get the bottom of the Giants lineup out in order to finish the game, and he couldn't do it. After A.J. popped out, pinch "hitter" Dustan Mohr, a career .250 hitter in three years of part time duty with the Twins, and hitting only .149 coming into the game, walked. Michael Tucker, who's also a ~.250 career hitter, did the same, and then Edgardo Alfonzo grounded out to short, moving both runners up. Shawn Chacon, who ironically, started the only other game I've seen in one of the one of the ballparks of the new millennium, the Pirates 11-3 drubbing of the Rockies in May of 2001, blew the save by allowing Marquis Grissom to single up the middle, which scored both runners, tying the game. The Rockies then, to face Barry Bonds, brought in Tim Hara-kiri, er, Harikkala who worked to a full count and then promptly committed pitching suicide by throwing the ball over the plate, allowing Bonds to hit a home run that just barely cleared the fence in left center field, and ended the game, much to the jubilation of the 20,000 of us who didn't leave at the end of the seventh.
After the game, everyone walking down the concourse from the top level was chanting "BARRY! BARRY! BARRY!", which was cool. Never experienced that before. But my friend, who had never been to a game before, noted that perhaps Marquis Grissom deserved a chant or two. After all, he not only kept the game alive for Barry to get his shot, but tied it up with his own hit. Maybe she was right?
Shawn Shacon, who blew the save and took the loss, even though Harikkala gave up the homer, was only recently made the Rockies' closer. He was not a good starter for three seasons, and I guess he has stamina issues or something, so they made him the closer coming into this season. Age 26 seems a little young to be giving up on a guy as a starting pitcher, doesn't it? But with Jose Jimenez getting expensive, and about to be promoted to Chief Astronaut for the United States Interplanetary Expeditionary Force, they had to get someone to pick up those saves. Shacon hasn't really done that as well as they'd hoped, or as well as Phil Rogers expected, blowing 4 saves in 14 chances so far this year, only closing the door about 78% of the time. Not exactly Eric Gagne territory, here.
But Shawn shouldn't worry. If this doesn't work out, I've already found him a job:
I guess it wasn't a storybook ending for everybody.

Outsmarting HIV
Small molecules that mimic the T-cell surface receptor CD4 could expose the virus to antibody-based immune responses.

HIV-infected T cellFLICKR, NIAIDThe T-cell surface receptor CD4 is necessary for HIV to enter host cells. Once the virus is inside, however, the CD4 receptor makes HIV vulnerable, by altering the conformation of the envelope glycoprotein in a way that exposes it to effective antibodies. To evade this immune response, HIV-1, the most common serotype of the virus, downregulates CD4. To make the virus susceptible to antibody-based destruction once again, researchers decided to present infected cells with small molecule mimics of CD4, forcing HIV's envelope glycoprotein back into a vulnerable state. Their results were published today (May 4) in PNAS.
"The virus has to get rid of the CD4 proteins to protect itself," study coauthor Jonathan Richard, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Montreal's CHUM Research Centre, said in a press release. "Adding the small molecule forces the viral envelop to open, like a flower....
The results could be key to an effective treatment, added study coauthor Andrés Finzi, also of the CHUM Research Centre. "We found that people infected with the HIV-1 virus have naturally occurring antibodies that have the potential to kill the infected cells. We just have to give them a little push by adding a tiny molecule that acts as a can opener to force the viral envelope to expose regions recognized by the antibodies, which forms a bridge with some cells of the immune system, initiating the attack."

Aging infrastructure may force tough decisions at AGFC
by Arkansas Game and Fish Commission | Mar 31, 2021
A new generation has stepped outside as a result of the global pandemic, discovering the peace, excitement and sense of wonder available through hunting, angling and outdoor recreation. Arkansas is blessed with countless opportunities to pursue these activities.
This blessing doesn't come without a responsibility to maintain the quality of the state's natural resources. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission is facing a critical time in the agency's history. Most of the lakes, hatcheries, buildings and other infrastructure controlled by the AGFC were built more than 50 years ago. Mechanical equipment, buildings and other manmade structures have a lifespan and need renovation or replacement, even in the best of conditions.
The AGFC maintains and manages more than 400 boat ramps, 50 lakes, five fish hatcheries and nine nature and education centers throughout Arkansas. It also manages more than 380,000 acres of wildlife management areas and manages millions of additional acres through cooperative agreements with partners on a local and federal level. Nearly all of these areas and facilities were created with the help of federal, state and local partners for the benefit of all Arkansans. While the agency has been able to shoulder the maintenance of many of these facilities, the time has come to reinvest in the resources we've come to enjoy so much.
"The road we are facing is not easy," AGFC Director Pat Fitts said. "And it's not inexpensive. We are facing as much as $250 million in needed repairs and renovations within the next 10 years above our normal operating budget."
Lake Poinsett is the largest lake renovation in the AGFC's historyFitts points to the recent example of Lake Poinsett in northeast Arkansas as just one of many demands the agency currently faces.
"At $3.3 million the Lake Poinsett renovation was the most expensive lake renovation in the agency's history," Fitts said. "But had we not acted and replaced the water-control tower, there may not have been a Lake Poinsett left for anglers to enjoy. Shoreline erosion also had reached the point that the lake's aquatic habitat quality was suffering.
"Poinsett is not the only lake renovation taking place. We are in the process of repairing the spillway at Lake Elmdale at an estimated cost of almost $1 million, and we're in the beginning stages of renovating Lake Wilhelmina to avoid a critical infrastructure failure there as well."
While the operating costs of maintaining these lakes has steadily increased with inflation since these lakes were built, anglers have been able to enjoy these resources with one of the lowest license costs in the nation. In fact, the cost of a resident Arkansas fishing license has not changed since 1984, making it the oldest license cost in the U.S. Arkansas also offers great opportunities to pursue species ranging from trout and walleye to crappie and bass. Not every state offers these opportunities.
Arkansas's lakes aren't the only infrastructure issues the agency faces. The bottomland hardwood forests that ducks and duck hunters flock to each winter are under intense stress from years of flooding outside of the trees' dormant season. Thousands of acres of trees have already died or are past the point of recovery, and many more could follow suit if something is not done soon. More than 50,000 acres of manmade greentree reservoirs on 16 wildlife management areas are in need of restoration, which will require many years, if not decades, of work.
"It's hard to imagine, but if we don't act and make some tough decisions, Bayou Meto, the crown jewel of public green-timber duck hunting, will be a shadow of its former self. Once lost, these systems could be gone forever or, at a minimum, would take a lifetime to restore," Fitts said.
Just like Arkansas anglers, Arkansas hunters have enjoyed the same license cost for more than three decades. The current resident hunting license price was set in 1990, making it the longest standing cost for residents in the U.S. Outside-the-box thinking and collaboration with partners has continued to provide some of the agency's needed funding but the challenges to come will be far above what is currently available.
The AGFC has developed a plan to address some of these obstacles. Partnerships with nonprofit organizations such as Ducks Unlimited can help solidify federal grants to aid in waterfowl habitat and wetlands restoration. Renewed partnerships with agencies like the Arkansas Department of Transportation may increase opportunities to use funds earmarked for boating access to improve a long list of boating accesses. The AGFC also is seeking new partners with shared interest in improving the countless AGFC properties important to citizens and communities across the state.
Even with these partnerships sharing the burden, the necessary funds to make critical repairs and renovations will be in short supply. In many cases, outside grant funds require the agency to fund 100% of the cost up front before receiving reimbursement and require significant resources to attract outside funding. Grants have a matching commitment and require upfront funding to leverage the outside funds. The challenge facing the agency is what must be sacrificed in order to repair one of the many lakes or wildlife management areas. Should the agency reduce efforts to improve habitat for quail, turkeys and waterfowl, decrease work to improve water quality and fish populations, or reduce education programing for today's youth? One should not have to be sacrificed for the other.
The AGFC is a unique agency in that it owns public lands, raises and stocks fish, works with private landowners across all 75 counties and is heavily involved in educating a growing urban culture. The agency faces an uncertain future for these potential issues. What is certain is that more investments have to be made in these places while balancing the agency's commitment to managing the fish and wildlife resources that contribute to what makes The Natural State a true outdoor paradise.


Heavy Arms Custom <-- Works great for PVP And Missions.
I haven't rented or tried heavy arms custom is there any major cons about it?
It is food for anything that outrange it.
Ah so many choices can't decide x.x, err actually to be more specific which paper is the most fun?
The only correct answer is make them all.
DX is only for SP bombing like a boss. Okay for combat, but I would get the new KR WZC unless you like covering the map with uber fat beams.
Stargazer, F91 more like rocks than papers. Go 5 hit melee on a paper!
Normal Dendrobium is good. Use the GP03 from mission, see your missiles do ridiculous damage. But the beam rifle is kind of meh, and you're a huge fatass with it.
GP-03D is hella fun. 3hp, and OC def.


The element 'RunParamater' in namespace 'http://winshuttle.com/server/' has incomplete contect.
In the solution , we have two scripts (web services) . One for retrieving and other for uploading . Multiple rows of data to be retrieved . Manually edited . Updated. Two scripts are imported . We use "Generate Repeating Section" for the web services to accumulate multiple rows of data .
The second script is not able to read the mapping though provided . (Either with manual mapping or use existing input and output fields).
In Field Mapping for both the script , same group name should be provided so two web services use the same fields including "Allow Run" field .
" Allow Run" is not a field of script . Hence it cannot be mapped using manual or use existing , Above approach of same group name will make it happen automatically.
We can resolve this by re-importing one of the scripts and changing the Group Name to the same as the other web service.

Zachary Formwalt, In Light of the Arc, 2013, double channel video installation with sound, 30 minutes, looped, courtesy of artist
Zachary Formwalt
b. 1979, USA/The Netherlands
In Light of the Arc goes inside Shenzhen's future stock exchange, once inside, a series of relations appear between the material infrastructure required by today's financial system and the surface of exchange that results from this infrastructure. While today's markets are touted as pure arenas for efficient price formation, the work suggests that these prices are but one side of the equation. The material underbelly cannot be made to disappear simply through the abstraction of an economics that has become obsessed with an efficiency measured through abstract notions such as liquidity and risk, terms which have themselves been reduced to a technical language that avoids any reference to the meaning which they have outside of this discipline. In Light of the Arc proceeds by way of other images, the construction of which is never entirely complete. These incomplete images attempt to capture a process of materialization in a place that will soon be driven by dematerialization. The film is split between two screens positioned opposite each other and projected from the same angle that the shots were originally taken from. The familiar tapering of the building facade as it stretches upward is here corrected by the angle of the projection, so that the building remains the same width at both the top and bottom. It is what would be seen from an ideal point where the facade would not be affected by perspectival space, an ideal view that is only achieved through a severe distortion of all that surrounds it.

County Clare experienced its first snow of 2017 today (Thursday). The snow was was mainly on higher ground early on but as night approaches it may well become more widespread. The gardaí and AA Roadwatch have issued warnings in relation to travel, asking motorists and pedestrians to exercise particular care. Met Éireann has forecast more sleet and snow arriving from the north west through Connacht and into Munster. Clare Champion photographer John Kelly braved the cold to capture some of the beauty of the snow-capped high ground.

Q: Aptana 3.2.0 Plugin for Eclipse. Javascript code completion issue I have Eclipse PDT 3.0.2 All In Ones installed with Aptana Studio 3.2.0 plug-in. When I create a web project (Project Natures/Web is set to primary) with javascript file and try to use code completion (ctrl + space) this results in "No Default proposals" message. I can right-click on project and select "Configure/Convert to JavaScript Project" though but this is the feature of Eclipse not Aptana.
P.S. CSS and HTML code completion works fine.

A: That did it. I have changed an editor associated with .js files to JavaScript Source editor instead of JavaScript Editor which was set as default at installation. It would be nice if they added "Aptana" after the name of editor to distinguish it from other editors.
