Jesus before Pilate
1st CE
The Gospel According to Mark
15:1-15
Mark narrates here the trial of Jesus before Pilate, the Roman governor responsible for overseeing Judea. Jesus has been questioned during the night by the Sanhedrin (the Jewish council), and found guilty of blasphemy (Mark 14:15-72). He is now brought by the Jewish elders to the Roman authorities, where ultimately his fate will be decided. The description given in this passage of Barrabas, the prisoner released in place of Jesus in accordance with the cries of the crowd (influenced by the Jewish elders), and the desire of Pilate to satisfy both parties, is the longest and arguably most central part of the episode (see Mark McVann, "The 'Passion' of John the Baptist," p 155). While Mark and also Luke (23:18-19) devote space to Barrabas's identity, Matthew merely mentions that Barrabas was a "notorious prisoner" whom the crowd choose to be released instead of Jesus; no further information is given about him (Matthew 27:11-26). Mark's account, on the other hand tells us that Barrabas was a rebel insurgent, who committed murder. As Morna Hooker points out (The Gospel According to Saint Mark, p. 368), the practice of releasing a prisoner at the Passover is not referred to outside the Gospels, and is likely an invention intended to highlight the combined complicity of the Jewish people, the Roman government, and the Jewish leaders in the death of Jesus. Moreover, not only is it hard to imagine a Roman governor releasing a prisoner guilty of murder and insurgency against the state, but as Ched Myers points out, it is extremely unlikely that a Jewish crowd would shout for the blood of any Jew facing execution by the unpopular Roman authorities (Ched Myers, Binding the Strong Man, p. 374). There is a theological point to the Barrabas episode also, however, as the name means "Son of the Father". The fact that Barrabas is liberated due to the execution of Jesus instead makes an ironic point – Jesus is the true Son of God, and dies as a "ransom for many" (Mark 10:42-45), even the sinful (Mark 2:14-17) (see Mark McVann, "The 'Passion' of John the Baptist," p 155). Adela Yarbro Collins has even argued that the Barrabas incident parodies the gladiatorial games, in which the crowd decided the fate of a defeated gladiator by calling either for their death or the sparing of their life (Adela Yarbro Collins, Mark: A Commentary, p. 720; see also Andrew Simmonds, "Mark's and Matthew's Sub Rosa Message," p. 745-746). It is also possible to interpret this episode in connection with the two goats utilised in the Jewish celebration of Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) (see Leviticus 16:1-34), where the sins of Israel are atoned for and covered for the year. As part of the ceremony, the High Priest took two goats, one of which was sacrificed, and one of which, the "scapegoat," was set free into the wilderness, with a scarlet piece of wool tied around its neck, symbolising the carrying away of Israel's sin. In the story of Jesus's trial, this ritual is mirrored, with Jesus playing the part of the sacrificial goat, and Barrabas that of the scapegoat, who is allowed to go free. Pilate's handwashing in the Matthean version of the Pilate episode (Matthew 27:24) can be understood as reflecting the same action by the High Priest, after he performs the sacrifice. Barrabas walks free, carrying his sin (just like the scapegoat) away with him, while Jesus becomes the atoning sacrifice, ensuring the forgiveness of his followers not just for one year, but for all time.
Regardless, this contrast between the murderous rebel Barrabas and the innocent teacher Jesus, suggests that Mark is concerned with emphasising Jesus's political innocence, aside of anything else. Jesus has not killed anyone, and has not himself made any claims of kingship – indeed, he asserts that the title "king of the Jews" is one given to him only by others (verse 2). Moreover, Mark (and also Matthew and Luke) have Pilate ask the crowd what it is exactly that he should execute Jesus for (verse 13). Several interpreters have suggested that Mark seeks to cast Pilate as having minimal input in the death of Jesus. Brian Incigneri, for instance, discusses the fear of Rome suffered by the first-century Roman Christians receiving Mark's Gospel, and Ched Myers suggests that they would not have wanted to been seen as upholding the anti-Roman attitude that a Pilate heavily involved in Jesus's execution would imply (see Brian Incigneri, The Gospel According to the Romans, esp. chapter 5; Ched Myers, Binding the Strong Man, p. 369). Perhaps, then, the worry of implications on his earliest audience would therefore compel Mark to portray a Jesus completely innocent of political wrongdoing, and a Pilate who would rather not have had to kill him. Some have argued that Pilate is portrayed in the Gospels as decidedly apolitical, forced into his decision by the crowds which it was part of his job to control (see Helen Bond, Pontius Pilate in History and Interpretation, p. 129-133).
Others, however, argue that Pilate's decision was likely fully conscious, and extremely strategic (see, for example, Warren Carter, Pontius Pilate: Portraits of a Roman Governor, p. 1-54, 79-99). As governor, he had a responsibility to maintain order, both socially and administratively, and looked out for the interests of the ruling elites (for a discussion of Roman governors and their role, see Peter Brunt, Roman Imperial Themes, p. 53-95, 163-87, and 215-54). As Josephus tells us, local elites such as the Jewish leaders of Jerusalem frequently made alliances with Roman governors, and were keen to maintain this beneficial relationship with the imperial rulers (see Josephus, Jewish Antiquities XX.9) (see the discussion also on Matthew 2:1-23). This can be seen throughout the episode in this passage, from the chief priests and elders handing Jesus over, to their compelling of the crowds to request Barrabas. Mark can arguably be seen to make subtle challenges to or criticisms of Roman rule in various places (for example, the possible subversive borrowing of the Roman triumphal tradition in Jesus's entry to Jerusalem and parading to his execution: Mark 11:1-11; 15:16-24), but as far as his portrayal of Jesus goes, he is very careful not to place any intentions of political subversion or rebellion on his lips.
Nonetheless, Pilate's part in Jesus's death is certainly not avoided by the Markan author. For Andrew Simmonds ("Mark's and Matthew's Sub Rosa Message," p. 754) the anti-Roman sentiment of Mark's account is certain, and Pilate effectively is cast in the role of Caesar presiding over the gladiatorial games, where he will ultimately look to the crowd for a decision about the fate of the defeated fighter. For Simmonds, Jewish complicity in this scene is merely a thinly veiled disguise for what is actually a deeply anti-Roman message. According to Mark McVann, his role is structurally similar to that of Salome, Herod's wife (the widow of his brother, Herod Philip), who convinces her daughter, Herodias, to request the death of John the Baptist after the king vows at his birthday party to give her anything she wishes (Mark 6:14-29). Just as Salome's and the guests' witnessing of Herod's oath provides him with an excuse (and arguably an obligation given the conventions of first-century honour culture), the crowd provide Pilate with an excuse also (see Mark McVann, "The 'Passion' of John," p. 155-156). McVann discusses several parallels between the narratives of John the Baptist's and Jesus's imprisonment and execution. Notably, the recognition of both Herod and Pilate that John and Jesus are extraordinary characters (Mark 6:20, 15:5, 9:13), the fact that both John and Jesus shame the immoral conduct of Herod and the Jewish leaders respectively (Mark 6:17-18, 11:15-18), and that seemingly arbitrary characters – Herodias and Barrabas – essentially seal the fates of both men (Mark 6:25, 15:15). One of Mark's key aims, according to this argument, is to emphasise to his audience that worldly rulers, represented here by Pilate (and also by Herod Antipas in Mark 6:14-29), are untrustworthy and ultimately purely concerned with their own power and selfish interests. The Markan author thereby reinforces the message of Mark 13:9, which claims that the followers of Jesus will suffer at the hands of "governors and kings."
It is possible that the Gospel writer intends to emphasise both Jesus's political innocence and the complicity of Pilate – it does not necessarily follow that only one is true. For Anselm Hagedorn and Jerome Neyrey ("'It was out of Envy that they Handed Jesus Over'"), Mark's setting of the scene is ultimately to highlight Jesus's honour, a pivotal value of the author's first-century culture, by emphasising the envy that this caused the Jewish leaders to have of his status (verse 10). Their intent on shaming Jesus by subjecting him to such a fate only further proves the superior honour status that he possessed in the first place.

Without a focus on improving teacher effectiveness within the dialogue on improving public education and student outcomes, we will fail to fully capitalize on and support one of the greatest resources we have: our teachers.
Most of us fondly remember a teacher who helped us achieve to a degree we hadn't previously thought possible.
The evidence-based impact of teachers is called the "teacher effect." Repeated studies have demonstrated that a high-quality teacher can measurably improve student learning more than any other variable within the purview of a school. In fact, research shows that a high-quality teacher can elevate student learning by two and even three grade levels in one year. Effective teaching, therefore, must be a central feature of any state-guided strategic plan to help students master 21st-century knowledge and skills and obtain a post-high school credential.
To begin, public education should attract some of the best candidates into teaching. Today, 100 percent of school teachers in high-achieving countries such as Singapore, Finland and South Korea come from the top third of college graduates. But in the U.S., only 23 percent of new teachers graduated in the top third of their classes.
While class rank alone does not ensure teaching quality, it does create a quality pool from which highly effective teachers can be screened and developed, and ensures that those responsible with the education of our children have the content knowledge, critical thinking and academic drive to develop knowledge-rich classrooms.
Closing this challenging talent gap requires both redefining the professionalism of teaching and re-engaging a commitment to the value of public education. A recently released study on the "talent gap" in public education noted that new teachers are looking for (in order): high-quality co-workers, prestige, a challenging work environment and high-quality training.
Teaching as a profession could and should meet all of those needs, but reality demonstrates that it currently falls short on several of these criteria, in part because the system often incents and recognizes both highly effective and mediocre teachers in the same way. Put simply, attracting and retaining high-quality teachers requires elevated and differentiated compensation opportunities — which require greater investment by each of us as taxpayers. And it requires better leadership from our principals to coach up or coach out low-performing teachers.
Public education should also create opportunities for teachers to become recognized experts in their craft. Otherwise, the only meaningful vertical movement available to teachers requires leaving the classroom for administration.
Creating career pathways within education that offer opportunities to mentor and train other teachers (both of which strengthen the ability of all teachers) has the capacity to provide an opportunity for increased earnings as well as the satisfaction derived from greater overall impact on improving student achievement.
Elevating the quality of teaching in our classrooms will require more than attracting new people to the profession and ensuring they are appropriately compensated, rewarded and recognized; we also need to better prepare the newcomers to assist our students in mastering the growing expectations we are placing on them.
In a recent nationwide study, over 60 percent of teachers stated that their teacher preparation programs did not adequately prepare them for the realities of the profession. We must demand increased rigor and accountability from our colleges of education. Effective teacher preparation will also require more hands-on classroom experience — modeled after the clinical experience within the medical profession — in order to link theory and practice.
The foundation of a prospering economy and society is a robust system of public education. Improving education in the state requires increased investment, greater involvement from parents and better utilization of evidence-based instructional practices (topics for another day). It also requires a restructuring in the way we attract and retain highly effective teachers.

I am trying to find a new aircon blower fan, does anyone know a part number and who might sell one in Australia?
The HVAC system in RHD is a mirror image of the 97-01 LHD. The fan Spins the opposite direction so the vanes are angled the other way. The fan housing/mounting is also mirrored. You can see the differences if you compare to the LHD pics on rockauto.com to the ebay item linked below.
It's title states it's for 98-01 RHD XJs. The vehicle compatability list they have is wrong, listing XJs from 84 to 01. The fan will fit 97-01 RHD XJs and 97-06 RHD TJs.
LHD TJ fans changed to an under dash fitment in 02 so LHD have two fan types available. The RHD HVAC system stayed the same throughout the entire run with the fan accessed from the engine bay behind the battery.

I got a part number from the local Jeep dealer, but they wanted $900 and had to order one in. He suggested I search the internet, Summit racing have one, $400 landed here. Part number is quite different though, 04864956.
04864956 is the correct OEM part number for RHD. More often than not any leading zeroes are best left off when searching OEM part numbers on line. I guess Bonza just missed the second 4 when typing the number.
I didn't think to drop the leading 0 when searching, anyway, have one on its way for $390 including postage. Also, since I've had mine out and gave it a little lube at the bearings and basically disturbed it, it has been working.
Got to have that aircon working, to hot in Darwin without.

Okay before you get all worked up about Neiman & Marcus, let me first say that it is one of my favorite stores. WHY?? It's not because of the expensive clothes, or the reputation - it's because they are constantly pushing the edge in retail design. Next time you have the chance to go into NM go! Be inspired by their displays, colors... there isn't a sign anywhere that says that you have to buy something or that you need to make $$$,$$$ to even step over the threshold. GO in, but promise me you won't look at price tags and remark about how expensive something is (we will save that for another post) you are not there to shop - just observe.
One of my favorite times of year for NM is Christmas. They come out with what is called the infamous "The Christmas Book" I get giddy with excitement when this baby comes in the mail! First look at the paper crafting design on the front cover?! And in the Fantasy Gift video it all comes to life.
As I watched the video here was one exclusive item, that someone (not sure who in this economy right now) could buy that stood out. Let me also say kudos to the NM team this year - it is A LOT of work putting together exclusive deals.
Algonquin Round Table Experience...being the host of Malcom Gladwell, Nora Ephron, John Lithgow, and many more - what an evening to remember! Plus the $200,000 price tag is donated to First Book. What a great idea - couldn't you do something similar with a group of friends? Or this idea might give you the reason to host your own round table experience with professionals in your home town, that you have always wanted to meet. Put the invite out there, you never know what might happen!
Starting on page 61 they use vintage book paper for backgrounds and props - great ideas for decorating and in our own artwork. The Valentino Hobo and boots aren't bad either! But look at the color - gray. Some colors may come across as drab but when presented in the softest suede a color like gray can be inviting.
Jewel tone colors are, or going to be hot! This definitely reminds me of 80s royal blue but this is definitely not your 80s prom dress. The blue horse in the background is a little 80s, if only it was a unicorn.
This magenta color is AMAZING by Magaschoni (left) and the dress is adorable... if you don't think that Mad Men isn't having a huge influence on fashion right now, think again. Also look at the color combination: magenta with brown/ochre background. Might be the next card I make.
Loved the flow of this product shot, the circles with the squares. Will be putting this clip on my inspiration board.
Here is an idea of putting pictures into old books - definitely not acid free but maybe just use the old covers and insert your own pages??
I hope I have given you a better reason to look at all the catalogs that will soon be coming to your doorstep! Don't get down because you can't shop - use them to be inspired!
Happy Friday - enjoy life!

Georgina "Ina" Agnes Brackenbury ( – ) est une peintre et suffragette britannique. Elle est emprisonnée pour avoir manifesté pour les droits des femmes. Elle suit la voie d'Emmeline Pankhurst en devenant plus militante (et perd d'anciens collègues). Brackenbury est l'une des porte-parole d'Emmeline Pankhurst, dont le portrait qu'elle a peint a été acheté par son comité commémoratif pour la nation.

Biographie
Georgina Brackenbury est née à l'Académie royale militaire de Woolwich. Son père, le général Charles Booth Brackenbury, ancien correspondant du Times durant la Guerre austro-prussienne de 1866, est directeur de l'école d'artillerie. Sa mère, Hilda Branckenbury, est membre du Women's Social and Political Union à partir de 1907. Georgina et les autres enfants sont élevés à domicile par Flora Shaw, cousine par alliance de la famille et future journaliste. En 1890, la famille s'installe à Kensington après la mort de son père. Ses parents ont des intérêts artistiques et en 1888 Georgina va à Slade School of Fine Art, où elle se spécialise dans les portraits comme le suggère Hubert von Herkomer. Avec le temps sa sœur Marie Brackenbury suit le même chemin militant.

Georgina peint principalement à la maison, mais elle a également loué un studio. En 1894, elle crée un portrait de , 17e Vicomte Dillon, qui fut le président des Trustees de la National Portrait Gallery. Elle expose dans des galeries londoniennes, notamment à la Royal Academy. Sa mère s'intéresse aux droits des femmes et rejoint en 1907 la Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) de plus en plus radicale. Georgina et Marie ont rapidement rejoint la WSPU et ont transformé leurs studios à Holland Park en salles de classe où elles pouvaient former les femmes au discours public.

Georgina et Marie sont condamnées à six semaines de prison après avoir rejoint une action de la WSPU à la Chambre des communes. C'est le « raid pantechnicon » quand un fourgon de meubles (pantechnicon) a été utilisé comme cheval de Troie pour amener vingt suffragettes aux Communes. Georgina et sa soeur Mary se joignent aux nombreuses personnes qui essayèrent de se précipiter dans le vestibule. La police surprise qui met les femmes au sol alors qu'elles se hâtent d'approcher des portes.

L'emprisonnement de Georgina Brackenbury et de sa sœur Mary leur permet de planter un arbre commémoratif dans le Suffragette's Rest à Somerset le . Le "Suffragette's Rest" est le surnom de la maison de Mary Blathwayt à Eagle House où ses parents accueillent les suffragettes à leur sortie de prison et plantent un arbre pour chaque membre de la WSPU condamnée à une peine de prison. M. Blathwayt commémore les plantations d'arbres en prenant des photos.

Le studio de Brackenbury est également devenu une maison de récupération pour les prisonnières qui ont été alimentées de force, puis relâchées en vertu du Cat and Mouse Act, avant d'être de nouveau arrêtées lorsqu'elles s'étaient un peu rétablies. et auquel le mouvement fait référence sous le nom du «  » (« Château de la Souris »).

Georgina aurait informé Christabel Pankhurst qu'elle a entendu qu'un responsable policier avait reçu instruction par le gouvernement de ne pas laisser les suffragettes être traitées comme des prisonniers « politiques ». Son studio d'art, qu'il a partagé avec sa sœur, Marie, au 2 Camden Hill Square, est le lieu secret pour la militante de la WSPU Marion Wallace Dunlop pour révéler les plans de campagne des militantes à de nouvelles recrues en .

En 1912, sa mère, Hilda Brackenbury, est arrêtée pour avoir brisé des fenêtres. Sa mère a déclaré que deux de ses fils ont été tués en Inde en service actif alors qu'elle-même a peu de droits politiques pour voter. Sa mère reste huit jours en détention provisoire et quatorze jours en prison en dépit de ses 80 ans. Sa mère est convoquée au London Pavilion quand elle est libérée en .

Georgina Brackenbury meurt à l' de Kensington, en 1949, et sa maison du 2 Camden Hill Square, à Holland Park, est léguée à un groupe qui a fourni des clubs et hébergement d'auberge pour les femmes de plus de trente ans (la , fondée 1934).

Today I get to introduce you to PAIGE!!! She is one of my 2019 Shooting Interns and oh my goodness, honestly, I just feel so HONORED that she wants to shoot with *me*. Because ya'll, this girl is MEGA TALENTED. Not only that, she has the BIGGEST heart to show up and serve all my sweet couples. Not only that, but I get to shoot HER wedding in October. How crazy awesome is that?! I am so excited to introduce you to her today!
I asked Paige to answer some questions so you can get to know her even better! If you're a bride having her at your wedding, you're in for a treat. This girl is so amazing!!
Tell us a little about yourself! Where are you from?
Hi friends – My name is Paige and I'm a wedding and portrait photographer serving Zanesville and Columbus Ohio! I'm actually from Cambridge, Ohio but moved to Zanesville after graduating High School.
What do you love outside of photography?
What is your favorite part about photographing weddings?
My favorite part about photographing weddings is having the opportunity to serve and care for a couple on one of the most important days of their lives! I love everything about weddings and capturing two unique people in love! My favorite part of the wedding day is photographing my couples' portraits. The sweet, intimate moments after saying "I do" is just so sweet and special. I feel honored to be a part of it!
My Mom gave me my first DSLR camera as a Christmas gift in 2009, and I started taking photos of my pets and friends. I quickly realized how much I LOVED it. I photographed couples and families for a few years until 2012 when I shot my first wedding!
I'm in a season of planning as my fiancé and I are getting married in October of this year! After being a part of so many weddings, it's been so much fun having the opportunity to plan my own!
I have so many things to look forward to in 2019! In addition to marrying my best friend, I'll be serving many couples on their wedding days. I'm also looking forward to meeting new couples through the Stephanie Kase Intern program!
What made you want to become a SK intern?
I wanted to become an SK intern after working with Stephanie a handful of times and realizing how passionate she is about her business and her couples. I believe every business-owner is in a stage of growing, regardless of how many years they've been in business – so I saw this as a learning opportunity that I couldn't pass up! In addition to learning and growing, I wanted to help Stephanie serve her couples in a way that makes them feel cared for and loved on their wedding day!
What's one thing in your life you are really grateful for?
I'm really grateful for the creative gifts God has given me. Because of it, I've met so many amazing people along the way! I'm also very grateful for my fiancé and pups, cooper and petey who keep life fun and interesting!
What's one thing you're loving lately?
One of my favorite things lately is podcasts. I recently started listening to podcasts while editing and traveling, and it's so therapeutic for me! I love anything from true crime to business and financial related podcasts. Some of my favorites are Dave Ramsey, "Nobody Talks about this" By Scott and Elise Grice, and True Crime Garage (based out of Columbus – how cool!!).
I'm a crazy dog lover! I have two mini dachshunds that I'm absolutely obsessed with. Many of my couples will ask about bringing dogs to their engagement session and I'm always SO excited!!

Q: Another rsAccessDenied problem with SSRS I've read through a lot of posts regarding the problem, but none of the proposed solutions have worked for me. I continue to get an error stating, "The permissions granted to user '\Rich' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)." If I am logged in as the local administrator account, entering the Reporting Services URL in IE doesn't give me that error, but it takes me to a blank page. I haven't been able to get to a SSRS home page at all.
Order of operations:
I installed and patched Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
I installed SQL Server Express 2008 with Advanced Services using the MS web installer.
I downloaded and installed SP1 for SQL Server Express 2008.
I've tried running IE as administrator, adding local machine to trusted sites, and just about every other suggestion I've found. I even ran the entire installation logged in as the local administrator. Nothing seems to work. Could someone please tell me, considering the above installation process, what I should expect to do after to make this work?

A: if you want to access reporting server from your web application you must add NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE in new role assignment in report manager and give it every permission that you want.
if you want to add permission to a person that exist in a domain, you must add this user like below :
MY_DOMAIN\MY_USER_NAME

and give the needed permissions to this user.

A: Extra work needed on Windows higher than XP...
Read these which pretty much cover all bases...
How to: Configure a Report Server for Local Administration on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008
Installing Reporting Services on Windows 7, Vista or Windows Server 2008
Report Manager in Windows 7

A: I am running SQL Reporting Services 2005 on Windows 7. I could not get rid of the rsAccessDenied error upon trying to deploy the reports or access the url "http://localhost/reportserver".I tried so many suggestions from many forums but nothing worked for me. Finally the following solution worked for me.
My solution:
1.Open IIS manager, select the "ReportSever" website from the list of websites on the left.
2.Click "Basic Settings" from the actions on the right side.
3.Click "Connect As", provide your windows login credentials and click "Set".
Mahesh N
To test if this solved your issue, you can click the "Test Settings" button. If you see a green tick before "Authentication" and "Authorization", then you can Eureka.
Good Luck.

A: When launching Internet Explorer, right click and launch it as administrator.

A: I am using 64-bit Windows 7 and 64-bit SQL Server 2005. The "permission insufficient" error is not new to me. It happened to me on multiple machines, and it was always resolved in one way or another. On this particular 64-bit machine, I tried many solutions to no avail, until I tried Mahesh's suggestion above.
Just for clarification, my SQL installation was configured by the installation program automatically. Reporting service web service is running as "Network Service", and its Windows service is running as "Local System", and the ReportServer application pool is running as "Network Service". The only thing I did was, as Mahesh suggested, configure the ReportServer virtual directory (application) to "Connect As..." an administrator account, and that did the trick.

A: Have you given yourself administrative rights to SQL Server 2008?  I don't think it automatically gives Administrator rights during installation, other than for the SQL sa account if using Mixed Mode Authentication.  I ask because it's not mentioned in your list of steps in the question.
See step #16 here:
How to Install SQL Server 2008 (Setup)
"SQL Server Administrators — You must specify at least one system administrator for the instance of SQL Server. To add the account under which SQL Server Setup is running, click Add Current User. To add or remove accounts from the list of system administrators, click Add or Remove, and then edit the list of users, groups, or computers that will have administrator privileges for the instance of SQL Server. "

The Queen and the Mouse Fairy Tale ~ Stories for Kids
The Queen and the Mouse
Illustrated By: Tristan Liu
Once upon a time a wicked King from a faraway country invaded the land where a Queen ruled. The invader King captured the Queen and her baby daughter as prisoners. When he returned to his kingdom, he shut them both into the highest room of a tall tower. The room was very tiny and bare, with only one table and a very hard bed.
Then the enemy King sent for a fairy who lived near his kingdom. He nearly pushed the Fairy up the stairs to the Queen's room. The Fairy was touched by the sight of the Queen's miserable condition. When she kissed the Queen's hand, the Fairy whispered to her, "Courage, madam! I think I see a way to help you."
The Queen whispered her thanks. Then the wicked King cried harshly, "Silence!" He turned to the Fairy. "I brought you here for one reason and one reason only. Tell me this: Will this baby girl grow up to be a worthy bride for my son?"
The Fairy answered that indeed, the Princess would grow up to have all the graces, intelligence and charms that was in every way worthy of a throne. The old King growled to the Queen that it was lucky for them both that the Fairy had said it would be so. He would save the baby's life to become the future bride for his son. From the highest room of the tower the Fairy and Queen could hear the King's son shrieking and demanding that his servants do this and that from way down below, his mean voice carrying over all other voices and noises. The King thundered that if the Fairy had made a different forecast, both the baby and her mother would immediately have been hanged. Then he stamped off, taking the Fairy with him, and leaving the poor Queen in tears.
"How can I wish my little daughter to grow up, only to be married to that horrid King's son!" she cried. "And yet if she were ill-fated, we would both be doomed right now. If only I could hide her away somewhere, anywhere! There must be someplace safe where the cruel King could never find her." But where could the infant be hid, since they were both stuck in that tiny room at the top of the tower?
As the days went on, the Queen and the little Princess grew thinner and thinner. For every day, their hard-hearted jailer gave them only three boiled peas each to eat and a tiny morsel of black bread, so they were always terribly hungry. At last, one evening, as the Queen sat at her spinning-wheel - for she was also made to work day and night - she saw a tiny, pretty little mouse creep out of a hole. She said to the mouse, "Alas, little creature! Why are you coming here? We have only three peas each per day. So unless you wish to starve I'm afraid you must go elsewhere for your food."
But the mouse ran hither and thither, and danced and twirled so prettily, that the Queen clapped and laughed with joy. At last she gave the mouse her last pea, which she was keeping for her supper, saying, "Here, little one. I'm sorry I've nothing better to offer you. Your fine dancing deserves far more than this wrinkled little pea."
She had hardly spoken, when upon the table appeared a succulent roast partridge and two dishes of preserved fruit. Amazed was she! Quickly the Queen mashed a portion of the meat and fruit and spoon fed her baby, who licked each spoonful with glee. Then the Queen ate with great satisfaction herself, and offered what was left to the little mouse. The mouse danced even more charmingly than ever before.
The next morning the jailer brought the Queen and the Princess' daily allowance of three peas each, which he brought in upon a large dish to make them look even smaller. As soon as the jailer left, the Queen gave the mouse all three of her peas.
The empty dish was instantly covered with all sorts of wonderful things to eat, and the Queen shared a feast with her daughter once again. But afterwards, as she sat at her spinning-wheel, she began to worry that the fine meals could end any time, and even if they didn't, that her precious daughter was doomed to live as a prisoner, only to be forced to marry that horrid prince when she grew up.
The Queen despaired, "Oh! If only I could think of some way to save her!"
As she spoke, she noticed the little mouse playing in a corner with some long straws. The Queen began to braid the straws, thinking, "If I had but enough straws I could make a basket with them. Then if I let my baby down in the basket from the window, perhaps a kind passerby might take care of her and raise her in freedom."
By the time she had finished her thoughts, the little mouse had dragged in more and more straw, until the Queen had plenty to weave her basket. The Queen worked at it night while the little mouse danced for her. At lunch and supper time the Queen gave the mouse the three peas and the bit of black bread, and always found something scrumptious in their place. She really could not imagine where all these yummy dishes were coming from.
At last one day the basket was finished. The Queen was looking out of the window to see how long a cord she must make to lower the basket to the bottom of the tower, when she noticed a little old woman down below leaning on her stick and looking up at her. The old woman said, "I know your trouble, madam. If you like, I can help you."
"Oh, dear lady!" said the Queen. "If you really wish to be of use to me, you will come later at a certain time I will tell you, and I will let down my poor little baby in a basket. If you will take her and bring her up for me, when I'm rich and free again, I will reward you splendidly."
"I don't care about any reward," said the old woman. "And you can be sure your little daughter shall be well taken care of by me. But there is one thing I should like. You must know that I am very particular about what I eat. If there is one thing that I fancy above all else, it is a plump, tender little mouse. If there happens to be any mouse in your garret, just throw it down to me, that's all I ask."
Well, when the Queen heard this, she began to cry. The old woman, after waiting a few minutes, asked her what was the matter.
"Why," said the Queen, "There is only one mouse in this garret, and that is such a dear, sweet little thing that I cannot bear to think of it's being killed."
"What!" cried the old woman in a rage. "You care more for a miserable mouse than for your own baby? Good-bye, madam! I leave you to enjoy its company. For my own part I thank my stars that I can get plenty of mice without troubling the likes of you!"
That night when the Queen's baby was fast asleep, she packed it into the basket and wrote on a slip of paper, "Here is my beloved but unfortunate little baby girl. Please raise her with tenderness and love." This she pinned to the baby's robe. Very sadly she shut the basket. Just then, in sprang the little mouse.
"Ah, little one!" said the Queen. "It cost me dear today to save your life." Whereupon the Queen collapsed in a heap.
The Mouse answered, "Believe me, madam, you will never regret your kindness."
The Queen was immensely astonished when the Mouse began to speak. And still more so when she saw its little sharp nose turn to a charming face, and its paws become hands and feet. Then it suddenly grew tall, and the Queen recognized the Fairy who had come up to her tower room with the wicked King to visit her.
The Fairy smiled at her astonished look. Said the Fairy, "I wanted to see if you were capable of real friendship before I extended myself to help you. You see, we fairies are rich in everything but friends, and true friends are hard to find."
The Queen relied, rushing to her, "I cannot believe that you would lack for friends, you charming creature."
"Yet it is so," said the Fairy. "For many are only friendly with Fairies for their own advantage, and that I do not count at all. But when you protected the poor little mouse, you could not have known there was anything to be gained by it. To test you I took the form of the old woman whom you talked to from the window. I tempted you to forsake your little mouse friend. But this you did not do! Then I realized that you are indeed capable of true friendship."
Turning to the little Princess, the Fairy kissed her rosy lips three times. The Princess cooed and giggled.
"Dear little one," said the Fairy to the infant girl. "I am going to take you and your mother to my very own enchanted cottage, quite a distance from this wicked kingdom. There you both will be invisible to all others and you, sweet baby, will grow up safe and free, and will be together with your mother."
In an instant, the Fairy, the Queen, and her baby vanished from the tower prison room, never to return.
Why did the Queen protect the mouse?
Why did the Fairy need to know that the queen could be a true friend before she would help her and her baby?
Be honest, kind, show love, and be patient.

"The Queen and the Mouse" is based on the story "The Good Little Mouse" from The Red Fairy Book by Andrew Lang (Longmans, Green and Company: New York, 1924), pp.146-157. "The Good Little Mouse", in turn, was adapted by Lang from the story "La Bonne Petite Souris" which appeared in The Fairy Tales of Madame D'Aulnoy, published in London.

Hinoki essential oil comes from the Japanese cypress, Chamaecyparis obtusa, and is native to central Japan.
Hinoki wood has a spicy, lemon scent, is light pinkish-brown in color, and is highly rot resistant. Considered a very high quality timber and one of the "Five Sacred Trees of Kiso," it has been used historically in building palaces, temples, shrines, baths, and traditional noh theatres.

Put in the hard work now and you'll reap the rewards later. Whether we're talking about your job or something a little more personal, even Christmassy, this is the week to pull out all the stops. Then you can chill. Sun-Saturn conjunctions indeed have their uses but they can also coincide with a disappointment, so although you want to set the bar high where your standards and values are concerned, you may need to be a little less optimistic about the outcome of a project, particularly one related to work. People are concerned about the future which is causing them to rethink their plans. Try not to take a set-back personally, and wait until the new year before re-strategizing.

Executives of two dairies slapped with fines for market abuses
The board of the Bank of Lithuania has imposed a fine of 200,000 euros on Linas Strelis, a member of the management boards of Vilkyskiu Pienine and Auga Group, and a fine of 25,000 euros on Julius Kvaraciejus, management board chairman at Pieno Zvaigzdes, for market abuses.

Strelis used insider information to enter into transactions on the acquisition and sale of shares of Zemaitijos Pienas, and Kvaraciejus indirectly conducted a transaction in Pieno Zvaigzdes' shares during a closed period, the central bank, which supervises financial market participants, said on Tuesday.
Zemaitijos Pienas said in a stock exchange release in late 2018 that Baltic Holding, a company linked to the dairy group's largest shareholders, would buy 10.43 percent of shares in Zemaitijos Pienas from the Investors' Association and other minority shareholders.
Strelis took part in the negotiations and, having access to detailed information about the course of the talks and the progress achieved, and about the agreed selling price ranges, purchased shares in Zemaitijos Pienas on the stock exchange together with his family members and then sold these shares to Baltic Holding, the regulator said.
5 banks fined €1.07 billion for participating in cartel
Strelis describes the fine as "absurd", but says he does not know yet if he will contest it in court.
"I regard it as absurd. The deadline (for appeal) hasn't yet passed," Strelis told BNS. "All appeals cost money. The pros and cons need to be weighed up".
"There are no such precedents in Lithuania and abroad, to (my) lawyers' knowledge," he added. "A precedent is being created in this case and this has to be looked at from this point of view."
Kvaraciejus was involved in a deal on the acquisition of shares in Pieno Zvaigzdes in early September 2018, thus breaching the EU Market Abuse Regulation, which prohibits company directors from conducting any transactions, either directly or indirectly, in the company's securities during a closed period of 30 calendar days before the announcement of an interim financial report, the central bank said.
The Market Abuse Regulation, in force in Lithuania since late June 2017, sets a fine of up to 5 million euros for using inside information and a fine of to 500,000 euros for transactions during a closed period.

Raise to Fame
Kid Cudi's lovely daughter Vada is the result of his relationship with ex-girlfriend Jacqueline Munyasya. Her father is an accomplished rapper, singer, songwriter, producer, label executive, and actor. When it comes to her mother, Jacqueline Munyasya, she likes to keep her life out of the public eye.
For the entirety of 2012, Cudi was involved in a custody fight with his daughter, Vada. Cudi also ceded custody after his child's mother accused him of being an absentee parent, according to sources. He also has violent tendencies and a "long history of chronic drug and alcohol misuse," according to the report. As a result, Cudi and his lawyer issued a statement disputing these charges, saying:
"Cudi did not relinquish custody but reached an amicable agreement with the mother; that, as stated in the final custody judgment, 'both parents are fit and proper persons to have custody of their child; that results from a drug test voluntarily taken by Cudi came back negative for drugs; and that the court acknowledged Cudi attempted to establish a relationship and visit his child since her birth and "voluntarily"
The official custody agreement's specifics are being kept under wraps. In order to be closer to his daughter, he has since purchased a property in Chicago. Vada spends much of her leisure time and vacations with her father, Kid Cudi. Cudi keeps posting pictures of Vada on social media. Despite the fact that Cudi never addresses or posts anything about Vada's mother, he continues to publish images and videos with her. Furthermore, Kid Cudi revealed his daughter to the audience during one of his musical performances in Cleveland, Ohio.

The peloton working its way across the parched desert interior of Southern California on Stage 2 where the temperature hit a record-high for May in Palm Springs of 110F / 43C.
May 17 update: From the course guide: The 2013 Amgen Tour of California will return to the original time trial course we used in 2006, with a wicked stinger at the end. This 20-mile course will feature a climb soon after the riders push off the starting ramp. As the racers navigate around beautiful lakes and golf courses, they will begin to prepare for the most difficult finish that any Amgen Tour of California time trial course has offered. As the riders make their final right hand turn on the route, they will come face-to-face with the climb up Metcalf Rd. to the finish. This is a 3 km climb that will see the riders gain nearly 1,000' in elevation and will feature several pitches over a 10% grade.
Women's time trial starts at 12:45 p.m.
LOS ANGELES (November 27, 2012) – Twelve cities have been named official Host City partners for the 2013 Amgen Tour of California by AEG, presenter of the race, helping to make up the route which will take riders on a South to North course for the first time in the eight-year race history. Considered America's largest and most prestigious professional road cycling stage race, the eighth consecutive edition of the Amgen Tour of California will travel approximately 750 miles from May 12-19, 2013.
The race will remain in Santa Barbara for the start of Stage 5 of the 2013 Amgen Tour of California. Ocean views will provide the perfect backdrop for racers and spectators alike as the route heads north to Avila Beach for the Stage 5 finish. San Jose will play host to Stage 6 and the Individual Time Trial, marking the eighth consecutive year the race has visited the city. San Jose is the only city to participate in all eight editions of the race.
Stage 7 will start in Livermore and head to Mt. Diablo for an intense mountaintop finish. The eighth and final stage of the 2013 Amgen Tour of California will start in San Francisco and finish in Santa Rosa, which played host to the official race start last year.
