Jesus Christ as the second Person of the Godhead is eternally one with God the Father of whose person and glory He is the accurate expression. To become man He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, so that two whole and perfect natures, the nature of God and the nature of man, were united in one person: truly God and truly man.
The Scriptures, consisting of the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments, are the infallible and inerrant Word of God. They were written by holy men of God moved by the Holy Spirit and have supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
Man was made in the image of God and for fellowship with Him. By transgression of God's command, he fell from fellowship with God and his nature was corrupted. As a consequence, all men are spiritually dead under Satan's dominion and control and subject to God's wrath and condemnation. Therefore apart from God's grace, man is helpless and hopeless.
In order to redeem mankind from the guilt, penalty and power of sin. Jesus Christ became man and died a sacrificial death as our representative substitute. By His resurrection, God's acceptance of His atoning death was demonstrated. This atonement is sufficient for the whole world but effective only in those who receive it. The sinner is justified and reconciled to God, not through any personal merit but solely on the basis of God's gracious gift of salvation in Jesus Christ received through faith.
The ministry of the Holy Spirit is necessary for the acceptance of God's provision of salvation. The Holy Spirit convinces sinners of their sinfulness, leads them to personal faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and so brings them to spiritual birth as God's children and to fellowship in Christ. Working within the life of believers the Holy Spirit makes real the presence of Christ, witnesses to their relationship with God leads into all truth, bestows gifts for effective service and produces graces for holy living.
Baptism is an ordinance of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is a public declaration of a person's faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. In accordance with New Testament Scripture it should be administered only by total immersion which symbolises the believers identification with Christ in death, burial and resurrection, the remission of sins and the believer's dedication of himself to God to live and walk in newness of life.
At the end of this age, according to His promise Jesus Christ will return personally and visibly in His glory to the earth. The full consummation of the Kingdom of God awaits His return.
At the end of the age, there is to be a resurrection both of the righteous and the unrighteous. After death the bodies of men return to dust, but their spirits return immediately to God – the righteous to be with Him and the unrighteous to be reserved for the judgement.
God has appointed a day of final judgment for the world. At that time Jesus Christ will judge every man and each will receive reward or punishment according to his righteousness. Those judged righteous, in their resurrected and glorified bodies, will receive their reward and will dwell forever in Heaven with the Lord. The unrighteous will be consigned to Hell, the place of everlasting punishment.
Baptists approve of the presentation of children to God by parents, if thereby they solemnly undertake to train them in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, in the home and in the Church.
6.2.1 - Baptists preach the gospel of the Father's love and the message of the Cross, as the Way of Life to all. Conversion is acceptance of Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord through the work of the Holy Spirit. Conversion also involves a repentance or turning away from previous ungodly practices or sin.
6.2.2 - This acceptance of Christ is a personal and deliberate act, involving the assent of the mind, the decision of the will and the love of the heart.
6.2.3 - The avowal of allegiance to Christ implies a constant endeavour to live a life worthy of, and well-pleasing to Him in all things.
Baptists hold that the Church, as established by the Lord Jesus Christ, consists of persons who have personally accepted Him as Saviour and Lord, and pledged themselves to discipleship and service in the Kingdom of God under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
6.4.1 - Baptists hold and teach that Jesus Christ alone is the Head of the Church.
6.4.2 - He is the sole authority in all matters of faith and conduct, in the life both of the Church and the individual.
This involves liberty of thought and conscience, and the rights of the believer and the Church, freed from any ecclesiastical or other external authority, to interpret His mind under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
6.5.1 - Believing that the voice of the Church is subordinate to the voice of Christ and that the mind of the Master is the standard of Christian belief.
6.5.2 - Baptists claim the personal privilege, and accept the Christian responsibility of interpreting God's Word under the guidance and inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
6.6.1 - In adopting the principle of congregational government, each Member having equal rights and responsibilities, the Baptist Church is largely dependent on the reality and vigour of the spiritual life of its individual Members.
6.6.2 - This spiritual life is generated by the understanding and inspiration of Christ's teaching, and by the creation and maintenance of a spiritual atmosphere, in which all that is unworthy dies, and in which Christian life becomes healthy and vital.
6.6.3 - The Baptist Minister accepts his office from the Lord of the Church and he is a servant of the Church. He is required to give constant attention to the service of Christ in His Church, engaged in the Ministry of the Word and in prayer and to seek the welfare of men's souls as those who must give account to the Lord. He is the spiritual leader in the life and ministry of the Church and is accountable to the Church through the Church Council.
6.6.4 - Associated with the Ministerial Team, as defined in Rule 2.6.3, in the spiritual oversight of the Church are men and women chosen for their Christian gifts and graces, who are called to be examples to the Members of the Church, in conduct, zeal, self denial and generosity. Deacons and Elders are appointed as spiritual leaders to work in cooperation with the Ministerial Team and Church members.
6.6.5 - The Church Quarterly General Meeting is the seat of authority in the management of Church business.
6.7.1 - Christian Baptism, by which is meant the immersion of believers as instituted by our Lord, is a personal, public confession of the believer's identification with Christ, and also a blessing to the Christian.
6.7.2 - Baptism is an outward act which symbolises, but does not effect regeneration, and salvation is not dependent on it.
6.7.3 - Baptism is a privilege and a personal responsibility, and is a help to believers in reminding them of their spiritual union with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection.
6.8.1 - The Lord's Supper is a service of spiritual fellowship whereby, through remembrance of His life and death all believers may experience the reality and influence of His presence.
6.8.2 - It is an opportunity of entering into close fellowship with the Lord where there is a re-kindling of love and a consecration of life to His service.
Baptists recognise their responsibility to strive for the establishment of the kingdom of God in the world and teach that Membership in the Church implies service and sacrifice. This involves stewardship of time, talents and money which aims at being worthy of the Son of God who loved and served mankind, even unto death.
This simply means that no one individual by virtue of his office alone attains a higher spiritual standard than any of his fellows. We are all spiritual equals in Christ. There is no special order of priests who stand between God and man. Even the administration of ordinances (Baptism and the Lord's Supper) can if necessary, be administered by other than the minister. Therefore the ministry is the responsibility of the whole fellowship.

I took a risk and didn't book a model for a shoot in the studio at school. I pre-lit with a fairly safe lighting set-up and then once I was ready, I strolled the halls for 5 or 10 minutes, face-hunting. I'm pretty sure I looked a bit odd, peering appraisingly at everyone I passed.
When I saw Jerome, I didn't hesitate. He's the Executive Chef for the catering company that serves Humber.
That's why he has the tallest hat.


Sometimes I forget to pray. I am easily distracted into believing that I am all alone in my bumbling efforts to survive down here on this lovely planet. It helps for me to have a plan, then stick to it. So I am making a plan to pray, and inviting you join in with me.
I've carried a Medicine Pipe for many years now—a Native American portable altar, as I've come to see it. My pipe has heard many prayers, and sent them on through smoke to the Mystery. If you would like prayers sent for you, or for someone or something you love, write to me. I'll keep your post private if you wish, and make a prayerstick for you. I'll load my pipe with your prayers, and whomever gathers at my house with me will send your prayers in a column of sacred smoke up to Great Spirit. The prayer sticks will be burned in a sacred fire.
Tomorrow, I'll get the ball rolling. I know this is short notice, but we'll be doing this each month, and I'll make sure my reminders are posted earlier, so you can get your thoughts together. If you have a prayer (or six, or ten) for tonight, just pass them my way.
This is lovely. I will pray with you. I'm scared a lot. Prayers sustain us. Blessed be.


As a kid I wanted to live in a cabin in the mountains. Or better yet, inside a tree in the mountains. Or a cave in the mountains. The important part was the mountain part.
A few of my friends wanted to visit New York City, but to me it sounded lame. A giant city? No way. Give me tree-covered slopes, lakes, rivers, and grassy meadows! The farther from civilization the better. I will hunt deer and fashion my own clothing from their skins! My teeth will be my only scissors until I find obsidian with which to fashion my own tools! I will also grow a huge beard, because that's what mountain men do.
While 10-year old me would be disappointed that those dreams never came to fruition, 31-year old me is quite happy that they didn't. First, I've never made it past the 2 week mark with facial hair—it's way too itchy. Second, I never would have seen things like this. Also, I'd never have seen Doctor Who. Tragedy of tragedies.
Anyway, point is that it came as a bit of a shock when I accepted a job offer in New York City back in 2008. I'd thought of moving to Denver, Seattle, and D.C., but still had a mental block on NYC from when I was young. I'd never had the smallest desire to visit the city, let alone live there. This approximates my view on NYC at the time.
I figured I'd stay a year.
I moved at the tail end of autumn and while the fall colors were pretty, I found winter in the city to be somewhat miserable1. It was cold, expensive (okay, this isn't unique to winter), I didn't have a car anymore, I couldn't go skiing (not that I went that often in Utah, but the option was gone), and I got lost a lot. I have a terrible sense of direction.
I didn't really begin to enjoy it until spring rolled around and I got out more. Turns out seeing and experiencing a place is rather important to the liking of it. Mind blown, right? I also got out of the city and explored some of the countryside. By the end of that first summer I was hooked. I was coming up on a year and had no desire to leave.
I stayed. For 4 years.
I won't attempt to wax poetic about what makes NYC a great place to live, as any attempt I could make would fall far short of the reality.
I will say, however, that I stayed, in part, for the food (and desserts), for the parks, and for the buildings; the long walks, the people-watching, the diversity, the smells (the good ones), and all the friends I made. I met my best friend in the city.
New York City may not be a secluded, wooded valley in the middle of a mountain range, but it is exciting and perhaps even a bit dangerous. Lots of beards, too.
Plus, the food is better.
Subsequent winters were also cold, but my dislike of the first was mostly due to my attitude.

History - Women in the Roman World
CLAS 3097 Women in the Roman World
CLAS 3095
This course explores the lives of women in the ancient Roman World through a critical examination of a wide variety of historical evidence, including archaeology and visual art. Women of all socio-economic classes will be investigated. Some of the topics may include women's place and role in the family, in law, in the economy, in religion, their representation in literature and art, stereotypes, values and norms of behaviour, categories of gender and male-female dynamics as well as the impact of slavery on women's lives. Attention will also be paid to the difficulties in attempting to uncover 'real Roman women' from evidence that is almost exclusively written by upper-class males. The course also explores the similarities and differences between ancient and contemporary notions of female identity and the position of women in society. This course may be credited towards Gender Equality and Social Justice and History.

Washington D.C. , Apr 15 : A new study claims that mothers who suffer from gestational diabetes, are more likely to pass on the ailment to their children.
Early detection of diabetes is important in children and youth since a quarter of them are diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis- a potentially life-threatening complication of the disease, it said.
The study compared mothers with and without gestational diabetes. And the result revealed that a child or teen whose mother had the condition was nearly twice as likely to develop diabetes before the age of 22 years.
"This link of diabetes in children and youth with gestational diabetes in the mother has the potential to stimulate clinicians, parents, and children and youth themselves to consider the possibility of diabetes if offspring of a mother with gestational diabetes mellitus develop signs and symptoms such as frequent urination, abnormal thirst, weight loss or fatigue," says Dr. Dasgupta.


The armbar from the guard is a classic BJJ move, but one that seems very difficult to finish against a seasoned opponent. Here's a quick look at two different ways to transition to the powerful belly-down armbar finish when starting from the closed guard. Both utilize the high-bite position, but only one relies on your partner stacking you in order to set up the finish. The final position is tougher to get good at initially, but once you have it down, it works well against the best of opponents. We'll take a brief look at these options and follow up in the future with more detailed tutorials on the finishing options.
Starting from closed guard, take a same-side sleeve grip on your partner's left arm (with your right hand), and create a frame on their shoulder with your left hand, reaching across to their left shoulder. Pull their sleeve across your body to off-balance them forward, and jump over their shoulder with your legs. This is a good time to really establish the "high bite" position, recrossing your feet until you feel 100% comfortable and there is virtually no space for your partner to wiggle their left shoulder back through.
One way to help facilitate this is to squeeze your knees together, then clamp back down (each time you do this, you'll tighten the bite just a little). As soon as you establish this position, your partner will likely move to stack you, by stepping up on their left leg, while leaving their right knee on the ground, trying to drive your knee into your nose. It's important for this first move that your partner is stacking you properly, so make sure you're really getting stacked, or else the following spin movement will be all but impossible.
Now, your partner is trying to stack you in order to prevent the submission. Reach under your hips to their far foot (their left foot—remember, their knee is off the ground in order to properly stack you here). You may need to duck around their right arm if they're trying to hug your head. Instead of trying to sweep them where they have an excellent base, just spin all the way around to the "belly down" position, poking your head out from behind their legs. As your head comes out, your left arm can straighten in order to facilitate enough space to extend their arm. Your knees should be touching together, and you can either pass your leg in front of their face (classical finish) during the transition, or you can hook the back of their head (see the following video series).
Be careful when finishing this armbar, as it may be a lot tighter than you expect it to be, and your partner may not be familiar with the finish!
Often when you're going for a high bite, your partner will anticipate the coming armbar and will start to lean away from the attack, knowing that if they stack you, you'll be able to spin underneath. This is a perfect time to hit the "stretch armbar."
As you climb up and over your partner's left shoulder, they begin to lean over to their right. Start turning your hips over, and move your left arm out of your way, placing it behind you so that you can continue turning over. It's almost as though you're executing a stand-in base or a hip-bump sweep here, but you're ready to switch to the belly-down armlock position. Finish by hooking their head with your right foot, and then falling to your right hip. Below, in the full-speed version, you can see that it's easy to use your partner's momentum to climb up and over for the finish.
Armbar from guard, or belly down?
We're just starting to scratch the surface of the possibilities with the belly-down armlock from guard, and hopefully this reinvigorates your interest in armlocks from guard. If you haven't already worked on the Lapel Trap Armbars, this would be a good time to revisit the classic armbar setups, as the high-bite and belly-down finishes are excellent compliments. As always, let me know how these techniques are working for you!
Nice! Let me know how it works for you.
I'm going to try this during open mat on Wednesday!

chapter 2.2 (week 3 cont.)—the rise of poetic modernism: Williams
Now in the second of four parts of our chapter on the rise of modernism—in the second part of week 3—we take a closer look at William Carlos Williams (1883-1963). We met Williams as a "Whitmanian" in chapter 1, the middle figure in a poetic line running from Whitman to Ginsberg. But that focus on him was a little misleading. The Williams of the late 1910s and 1920s was a poet fascinated by currents of formal experimentation—imagism, yes, but also Dadaism, cubism (especially drawing on innovations and painting) and a little later, objectivism. It's not the purpose of this course that we learn what all these "-isms" mean. Rather, let's start with a few poems by Williams that befit the imagist moment, and go from there. Quickly we'll find that Williams (always aesthetically restless) was interested in a writing that might capture the dynamism of its modern subject matter and was (mostly) willing to face problems created by traditional approaches to description and portraiture. When these conventions seemed to him to fail, he was prepared to include such failure in the poem itself—disclosing the troubled process of representation.

So now, we're going to spend just a few minutes talking about Marcel Duchamp and
his Fountain.
And it is not our goal.
This is not a course in art history and
it's not our goal to say anything that art historians and others,
scholars of modernism can be left to say and have already said about this.
But I wanted to present this wonderful piece that's somewhat in the spirit
of what Williams and others are doing in this early modernist phase.
And I want to ask you whether you think that what Duchamp does with Fountain has
anything to do with, for instance, the Wheelbarrow poem.
So I guess I'll start there.
Is there any relationship between them?
>> Well, Duchamp is taking an everyday item that we wouldn't normally
consider art.
>> What is the item?
>> A urinal.
>> The fountain is a urinal.
But by repositioning it and recontextualizing it in a museum,
he's now calling upon spectators to reconsider it.
And so Williams is doing the same thing in his poems that privilege everyday objects.
He's saying, no, these too can be looked upon with aesthetic
appreciation for what they are and poems can be made out of them.
>> Good, great start, just a footnote.
At first, it was submitted for a show.
I mean, now, you see it in the museum, so
it's got the grandest kind of art historical context.
But nonetheless, he wanted, there are some things he did to make it art.
What did he do besides submit it for the great show?
Controversially, as it turns out.
But what else did he do to make it art?
>> Signed it.
>> He signed it.
Did he sign it with his name?
>> No.
>> No. >> Signed it-
>> R Mutt.
>> With a pseudonym or it's, a lot of this is unclear.
It's not clear whether this is a person that he knew or
a reference to the manufacturer of the urinal.
What else did he do?
>> He turned it upside down.
When you turn an urinal upside down, not that Emily is an expert on these things,
but when you turn a urinal- >> Or am I?
>> What? >> Or am I?
>> Or am I?
>> [LAUGH] >> You know what,
I think I don't even want to go there.
>> [LAUGH] >> I think I want to go to Max with this.
Tell me, when you turn a urinal upside down, what are you doing to its utility?
Well, if it were to remain connected to the plumbing, then when you flushed it,
the water would come out.
>> [LAUGH] >> What would it be?
It would be a fountain.
>> Yeah, like a water fountain.
>> Not recommend that you do this at home [LAUGH].
Okay, so he does three things at least to turn it into art.
Now, the point of this conversation is to go back to poetry and
go back to Williams, okay?
They're working in different media.
Can there be such a thing as a ready-made in writing?
First of all, that's the first question.
The ready-made is the thing that Marcel, and possibly Walter Arensberg,
and possibly someone else or maybe Marcel by himself, it's not really clear.
They went to a plumbing supply place for the snow shovel he got,
and then he went to a hardware store, they bought it.
He brings it back, he makes art out of it, by doing not that much to it.
Okay, let's talk about Williams, what does Williams do?
>> I'm kind of addressing your first question, if that's okay?
>> What was the first question?
>> Is there such a thing as a ready-made in writing.
>> Good, that's a good one.
>> I don't think there is actually,
because the first thing that came to my mind.
>> There is no ready-made.
>> The first thing that, right.
And the first thing that came to my mind was taking, or an image and
taking a picture of it.
But that would be visual.
And then just typing, retyping or rewriting words as, whether you want to
call that plagiarism or whatever, would be almost a performance.
>> Are we looking forward to Kenny Goldsmith already,
this early in the course?
Sorry, go ahead.
>> I don't know.
I just, I'm not sure that there's such thing as ready-made-
>> What else do you think?
I mean, can we, is it categorically at least germane
to talk about a poem that's a ready-made?
You can't buy a poem from a hardware store.
>> I mean, yes.
I mean, I wouldn't term it a ready made.
I would call it perhaps appropriation.
What is this, what is the ready-madeishness of the wheelbarrow,
that's the question.
>> That he didn't set it- >> Feeling of it, that he's just come
upon this scene and there it is >> He found it!
Let's use the word found.
>> Sure.
>> He found the wheelbarrow and the chickens.
He didn't say to chickens, come over here for
this scene, like maybe a photographer would.
>> Sure. >> Maybe he imagined it.
Or maybe he came out into the yard after the rain to stretch after
he's been doctoring someone or writing.
Or he's remembering a childhood scene of running outside after the rain.
And he sees this, ready-made,
nature creating juxtaposition that's good with color and it's photographic.
Ready-made.
>> But he didn't find the language in the same way, if we think of poems with
found language, I would say that that's more like the Duchamp being ready-made.
Where you take some lines,
sort of arrange them a little bit, you put your name on them, and that's your poem.
>> Okay. >> But with Williams he's, as far as we
know, this isn't found language, although it's an object that he comes upon.
>> He didn't find the word chickens in the yard, lying on the ground.
No language in that yard, and
chickens don't speak language and a wheelbarrow, yep.
>> Yeah, they're all mute [LAUGH].
He's still making choices with how he's representing those things,
or how he's trying to make things with language.
>> So I think the key is the form to it, right?
It's how we repositioned the urinal,
is how Williams formed the line breaks in the poem, and how he labeled it.
It's no longer a urinal, he'd called it Fountain.
And some people would say that now that it's turned on it's side,
it more resembles female genitalia, then it becomes a masculine symbol.
>> He's messing with the gendering of the made object.
>> So it becomes ambiguous, right.
>> Okay, so Max has led us to conclude, I think we have a consensus on this,
that the language itself,
the words can't, it doesn't have a cognate in what Duchamp is doing.
But there are some things that Duchamp does that do have a correspondence.
One is the writing of a word or words, R Mutt, on the piece, right?
So the application of something of the world of language, the world of naming,
to an object that we don't think of as participating in the world of language.
>> That's one thing.
>> And the other is Submitting it to a show as an artwork.
What are the correspondences of those two things?
Especially the second of them to what Williams is doing.
Putting it in a show or seeing it at the Philadelphia Museum of Art or
in the video that we've made available at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
So what's the cognate there?
>> I think the cognate would be, I mean, if you think about the Between Walls poem,
finding beauty in something that is not typically thought of as beautiful.
Most people will not look at a urinal and say that is a gorgeous urinal.
>> Finding something from the built environment, from the made world.
Chickens aren't made, but the wheelbarrow certainly is.
>> That can be aesthetic or pleasing and beautiful, and
worthy of becoming either an artistic object in case of Duchamp,
or a literary object in the case of Williams.
>> So one more consideration for us.
The Fountain and poems like this is just to say, and
The Wheelbarrow poem all cause people to say doubters, and skeptics, and grumps.
Fewer in the museum than readers of the anthologies because the museum,
there'a is a certain amount of self-selection.
You are going to go see The Fountain and, unless you're coarse Uncle Joe,
who hates this visit to the museum.
You're not likely to shout out that this isn't art.
But in both situations, in the museum looking at the fountain, the urinal.
How dare they!
Or in the anthology, this is a poem, this is a refrigerator note, okay?
So what is the significance of our being forced by these two artists to ask whether
this is art?
Asking the question you would never ask about the Charge of the Light Brigade.
That you would never ask, even as it was being performed of Hamlet, I don't think.
Hamlet doesn't say, am I art?
It really doesn't, I don't think.
Why is this different and what's the consequence?
>> I think on the way it elevates a urinal into art,
it knocks all previous art off its pedestal.
And so that way democratizes,
because then all these materials are available to anyone at anytime.
As long as they're willing to give appropriate attention and vision.
And that's what Williams' goal is in his modern measured poem,
is to endow something with a new vision and a new consciousness.
>> So what, Molly, do you say to Uncle Joe who's grumpy?
Why did you drag me here, this is not art.
If I wanted a urinal, I could go to the bathroom.
>> The whole purpose of art is to think about what art is, and
make a new definition of it.
>> Can you say that again?
>> The purpose of art is to- [LAUGH] >> [LAUGH]
>> The purpose of art is to think about
what art is.
>> These people that we're encountering in this course,
almost all of them have that in common.
They believe that it's possible to make art that doesn't
force you to ask whether it, the object of art is art.
But they will be much prefer creating something that challenges you both
at the level of content, at the level of forum.
But also forces you to ask basic questions of aesthetics.
Is this art, can it be art?
So, it's a poem, it's a meta poem, and in
the sense that it causes you to ask about its very existence, it's a meta meta poem.
We're constantly involuting one more term,
thinking about what are the terms in which art can be said to be art.
That's really the essence of make it new,
and the Fountain really challenges us, obviously.
I believe we that should think of so
much depends upon a Red Wheelbarrow as equally challenging.


I have this nagging question about the local classes in ABAP if we recommend the use of them any more.
I have come through some discussions where it has been said that they are not recommended any more.
Can you please throw some light on use of local classes. Also when the local classes should be used and when global classes? Most of the times, I have seen people using global classes only.
So far I had only once a chance to use local clasess in real case. It was for a BSP project we were working on. I had controller class which received any user (http) request. As this controller was dedicated to do other stuff too, I was not very keen on encapsulating all request handling within private method's of this controller. Creating separate global classes would also mean they would be exposed to the world, which I wanted to avoid (due to tight coupling to project). So I decided to delegate this task to local class object. This allowed me to separate responsibility b/w controller and local controller's class. Each had its own unique task to do.
From OO design it has also one more advantage. I could easily implement several local classes and via composition use appropriate local class object based on view I used. So I could have several views handled by different local class objects which would share some common interface (but implement it in different manner). This interface would be all my client (controller) knows about local objects handling requests. So by means of strategy pattern I could dynamically decide which handler I want to use for which view.
To conclude. I believe I can live w/o local classes, but certainly there should be some balance b/w exposing parts of the application to world and inner complexity hidden behind either private methods or local classes.
> 1. Local Classes can be used for modularization purposes, or for encapsulating some independent functioanlity within a class as local class.
This point is not needed: it is not specific to local classes, it applies to global classes too. I think point 2 explains it.
Also if possible, the reasons behind not using them.
1. Local Classes are not 100% object oriented. They depend on some Program for their existence.
My thoughts, local classes are as object oriented as their counter parts(global class). A global class too depends on some program for its use, the use of a class(in a program or a class) doesn't decide if it is object oriented or not. A class in SAP ABAP (any other language) irrespective of local/global has to adhere to the OOP principles, and if it does it is Object Oriented.
another important usage of local class is that it can be used as generation of ABAP unit test class. As a approach of test-driven development in ABAP, you can use the build in functionality in SE80 to generate local test class of your productive class, and then write unit testing code in those generated lobal test class. You can search "ABAP Unit" as key word in abap document.
I am closing the thread. Only point left is whether it is wise to use the global classes for modularizing your program.I think it is not wise to use global classes just for the sake of modularization of the program. I hope that some expert throws some light into it.
I'm also bit late in replying but will give my 2 cents.
I would suggest not to create Business Local Classes in the global class or in the program if possible. While designing the local class, we may not realize that it may be used in future. More over if you have local class declared in the global class, they are not available in the inherited classes of the global class. So, ultimately, you would think why did you create that local class, which you need in the inherited class.
Local classes in the program are fine if they are event handlers for some ALVs as they wont be "alive" outside the application. But if you have a global class which act as a wrapper to generate the ALV, you should create a private event handler method in the same class.
Along with other uses, Local classes are also used in enhancing the global classes.
CLASS-DATA OBJ TYPE REF TO LCL_ZTEST_NP_123.
DATA CORE_OBJECT TYPE REF TO ZCL_TEST_NP .
TYPE REF TO ZCL_TEST_NP OPTIONAL.
My practice is to use local classes only in small, report-like applications. And occasionally in global classes, when I need something small as an object. For everything else, especially when it's modelling an object that could be reused, then I use global classes.
For large applications, say using the MVC pattern, I'll use global classes simply because they're easier to handle than local ones.
The trick is, as far as possible, to make your classes possible to reuse. As soon as you use local classes, you lose that opportunity. In the years I've been developing OO, I've reused classes maybe four years after I first wrote them, which is always cool.
SDN is a place where best people of the trade helps you selflessly even though they don't know you. I really am thankful for it.
@ Sandra: Regarding your point that even global classes can be used for modularization: Technically it is possible to do so, but is it logical to create one more repository object just for the sake of modularizing your program or class? I have a feeling that it is better to modularize using local classes rather than global classes since we are creating a repository object just to arrange our code, and that's why I had added this point to use local classes for modularization.
Please let me know if I am missing something, or my understanding is flawed.

I did the classic bum drag once. One should never ever confuse Gold Bond as an item to get anywhere near your upper thighs. That's a PSA.
There's a story in there, am I right?
Looks and talent! Awesome dog!
This dog will judge you.
...and if you're a postal worker, she'll prolly bite you.
she looks very similar to my Sheltie! My Sheltie also rolls in the grass like that, love it!
One of my doggies does that roll after she eats... we call it her "I'm full and happy dance."
But you're right... don't try to scratch her tummy while she does it. OWIE!
Sometimes I wonder what Sharon is thinking. Specially since Ozzy died. She is a crazy puppy that one is. Thank you for stopping my place on the web after Ozzy died. It meant a lot.

Avila's El Ranchito is legendary, authentic Mexican cooking at its best. It is still a family business, family owned, family operated and family loved. Mama and Papa eventually shared the responsibility of running El Ranchito with their children and now their grandchildren. Each restaurant is under the personal care of a family member, guaranteeing the reputation the family has earned for treating the customers "like part of the family." Helping to complete the family's recipe of success is the personal atmosphere and warm welcome from familiar employees at each of the restaurants. Many employees such as food servers, managers and kitchen help, have been working for the family for decades. Thank you, long-time employees, for your loyalty and commitment to the Avila family! You're very valuable and important to El Ranchito. Equally important are you, the customers, who have been coming to El Ranchito since it opened. Some of you have met here, fallen in love, married and are now bringing your children. Thank you for your loyalty.


The bigger a city, the more difficult it is to manage. Nowadays, our monumental cities are the home to hundreds of thousands if not millions of people who move around at all hours. Ensuring that so many people are moved in a clean, energy-efficient, and effective way is a real challenge. To deal with major problems, the best bet is working with the most sophisticated solutions. That is just what the Internet of Things offers: the solutions we needed to create a throbbing, thriving, and better world.

Judicial Sources Fear Truth May Never be Reached in Port Blast Case
in World News, Middle East, Mobile Home, Newsletter
FILE - In this Aug. 5, 2020 file photo, smoke rises after an explosion the day before at the seaport of Beirut, Lebanon. On Thursday, Feb. 18, 2021, Lebanon's highest court asked the chief prosecutor investigating last year's massive Beirut port explosion to step down, following legal challenges by senior officials he had accused of negligence that led to the blast, a judicial official and the country's official news agency said. (AP Photo/Hussein Malla, File)
The judicial path has been "affected by the political path" in the Beirut port blast investigation and there are fears that truth might never be reached, judicial sources said.
Beirut port blast investigator Judge Tarek Bitar is now suspended, pending the implementation of the decision of the General Commission of the Court of Cassation, the sources added.
The Court of Cassation last week said it is the only authority eligible to look into recusal requests against Bitar.
"We are now waiting for the pending recusal requests to be transferred from the Court of Appeals to the Court of Cassation," the judicial sources added.
"Higher Judicial Council head Suheil Abboud will have to choose which chamber of the Court of Cassation's chambers will look into these requests," the sources said.

Need bind immune badge or OdinDra sub if you're planning to use Anublos. She will bind your awoken skills then followed by binding any Devil cards for 10 turns, unless you can ohko her before her awoken+bind move.
you dont have a chance to awkn clear, she does the awkn bind and goes straight into the 10 turn bind. Odindra is almost necessary unless you have the bind immune badge. Also, make sure you don't have any devils on your team. They will get bound.
Alternative for Anublos is to bring a red pixel and a spike and just oneshot her.
2. Binding for 10 turns that cannot be prevented.
Parvati is a blessing, and in fact the best floor. You can stall out any negative effects from the previous floors and charge your skills. Yeah, you need either a damage void or a team with controllable damage, but I am assuming that if you are running a 99 stamina Annihilation level end-game dungeon then you should have one or the other.
You can stall on Parvarti long enough to get a damage absorb shield bypass active, and then kill the boss so (s)he doesn't activate the 10 turn bind.
This dungeon reminds me of the good old days, actually having to stall and use skills wisely instead of just blasting through everything.
I stalled 99 turns.And then 999 on Rushana.
There's one thing I don't understand about Rushana : when exactly does she do her 1,5 enhance thing ?
Anyway, Lmeta X LEscha did the trick, at the cost of a stone, that I wouldn't have needed if not for her almost permanent 75% shield that made the fight last waaaay too long, and then I took a hit while she was enhanced.
that 10 turns bind got me..
I cleared it solo follow-up-less(and yes-up-less) with Anublos.
Barbara has Sheena inherit,Diablos has Julie inherit.
F1:Dark/Blue/Red Imps that I got.
Just one-shot them.You're dead if you get more than one of the Light.
Nohime,one-shot.That will protect against the Mystic Curse and Chomp.
If you fail to one-shot then do it next turn.
I one-shotted with using Knees's skill.
Goura:Use Knees.You have too much of one orb.
Heal with the heal rows every turn you stall.
Be prepared to defeat Shiva with 10 jammers on the board.
Deal with the awoken bind,try to match as many combos as possible to get to the <80% range.
Stall one more turn,then kill.
If you get Trailokya:You can do 8 combos with 3 rows being Fire.One-shot.
If you get Kundali:Plan failed,preemtive is too much.
If you get Vajrayaksa:Kill and activate resolve,heals 10% and binds team.Odin dragon,Anubis,and Diablos are bind immune,so you can kill through the bind and still do the next floor.
If you get Vajrabhairava:Kill and activate resolve.Anubis and kill.
Do 1 combo to stall the first turn.
When the awoken bind and the devil bind hits,Draupnir.
Illuminate the path of justice -> 75% shield -> Heals to lights and attack (I used Nohime to get heals) -> Heals to lights and attack -> Poison skyfall,then I one combo healed. -> Combo shield and attack.I was left at 600 HP and my fate depended on if she attacked or not this turn.Anubis came up again.I got a call and had to anzwer it. -> 10% heal.Yes!She didn't attack!I was saved!,I used Anubis. -> 75% shield again.I used the Sheena inherit on Barbara. -> Clear! I defeated Rushana!
I hope you can follow this guide for this dungeon! This is my first follow-up attack,I never had one before!
I disprove that.They had a pixel and follow up attack but didn't use it.They were using an Anubis x Diablos team with leader unbindable awoken badge.And they did it Odin-Dragon less.They used bind recover to get the bind off of Diablos and the other subs.
This is only the 3rd Indian descended,Hanuman and Agni are the other two.
Battle 1(Imps):No multi hit here.Stall,and use Zera,Zera,Verse when up.
Battle 2(Nobunaga):Elysium is for this battle.On fifth turn,use Linthia to generate poison.Next turn Nobunaga will lock orbs.Keep a locked poison up until Shiva.Make sure you have a locked poison.Use Zera,Zera,Diablos.Below 20% he repeats Soaring Destruction so you're safe.Use the last Diablos to finish off.
Battle 3(Sha Wujing):Use Zera,Zera,Diablos to get below 50% and this is also where the Elysiums are for.Stall for Diablos and use it to finish off.
Battle 5(Agni):Stall,and use Zera,Zera,Verse when up.
Battle 6(Warchief):You can't encounter Goura.Stall,and use Zera,Zera,Diablos when up.It will be knocked into the enrage range which is a single hit.Stall everything up again and use Diablos to finish off.
Battle 7(Parvati):Use Fujin,Zera,Zera,Verse to defeat.
Battle 8(Shiva):You should have kept the locked poison.If you did he will only use Nilakantha.When the skills are up use Zera,Zera,Verse.
Battle 9(Guardian):You can't encounter Naro.Stall,and use Zera,Zera,Verse to defeat when up.
Battle 10(Rushana):Make sure you have Amaterasu,but not her inherit,up.On the second turn,use Amaterasu to clear the binds.Stall,and when Fujin inherit is up use Fujin,Zera,Zera,Verse to defeat.

Canada focuses on experiential learning, first-gen success as chancellor
This story was first published in the winter edition of Legacy: A Magazine for Alumni and Friends. Read more stories from this issue here.
KOKOMO, Ind. – Meet Mark Canada.
Although he became chancellor August 15, he's no stranger to the campus, having served as executive vice chancellor for academic affairs since 2015.
"I am thrilled to be leading this institution, where I have come to know the faculty, staff, and many of the students over the last seven years," he said. "This new position gives me the opportunity to work with a number of colleagues outside of the academic sphere, and I'm already working with them to enhance the educational experience in athletics, community engagement, and other parts of the university."
Canada's goal is to bring more visibility to IU Kokomo, which he called an extraordinary place.
"It's a gem, but it's been a hidden gem, and I want us to no longer be hidden," he said. "One of my key goals is to elevate our profile, so people all over our region and beyond appreciate us as a destination campus, and a place where they can get an extraordinary educational experience that is also affordable."
As executive vice chancellor for academic affairs, he received the William M. Plater Award for Leadership in Civic Affairs from the American Association of State Colleges and Universities. It was given in honor of his collaborative work with colleagues to create the Mind Over Chatter curriculum, a program freely available online to teach students how to find, identify, evaluate, and use information found on the Internet.
Chancellor Canada came to IU Kokomo with experience as a professor of English, chair of his department, and associate dean and dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke. He has written extensively on American literature and other subjects.
As chancellor, Canada's focus is on student success through the Kokomo Experience and You (KEY) experiential learning program, projects dedicated to supporting first-generation college students, and promoting education in sustainable living.
Canada was formally installed as chancellor in an October 21 ceremony led by IU President Pamela Whitten.
In his previous role, Canada collaborated with faculty and staff to create the campus's distinctive KEY program, which has provided hundreds of students with hands-on learning experiences through simulations, retreats, competitions, internships, and educational travel to destinations including Nashville, Yellowstone National Park, Silicon Valley, New York City, Chicago, and more.
With faculty empowered to create their plans, KEY experiences are tied closely to each area of study, so biology students' experiential learning isn't providing the same as those in business or education. It also created a sense of ownership in KEY.
"I often refer to myself as the conductor of the orchestra, with the faculty playing the instruments," Canada said. "Out of that came not only a powerful educational experience, but also a strong sense of collaboration around a single goal. "What I look forward to doing as chancellor is building on that foundation, so we all can collaborate on additional ways to enhance the experience for our students and community partners. KEY is not just an educational initiative that has transformed our campus and hundreds of students lives. It's also a model we can use to move forward in a number of other realms."
One of the other advantages of KEY, especially on a campus where many students live at home or in apartments rather than residence halls, is that it helps students find people to support them and build community around themselves. This is especially crucial for first-generation students, who may have trouble seeing college as a place where they belong.
"KEY provides an opportunity to travel together and to work in groups," he said. "All of these experiences help build a sense of belonging."
Canada's own experience as a first-generation college student on the Bloomington campus, as well as his career at institutions that serve a great number of first-generation students, informs his mission of making sure IU Kokomo supports them from admission to graduation.
"I believe the success of this country going forward is dependent on how we serve these students, and how we empower them to realize their potential," he said. "IU helped me realize what I was capable of as a first-generation student. I know many of my colleagues and I embrace the opportunity to do the same for our students."
Their success is critical, as the good jobs that used to be available without higher education are disappearing because of globalization and automation.
"It's no longer safe for people to depend on those jobs," he said. "I would encourage students who have even a glimmer of interest in college to explore it as an option, because it will open doors for them. Getting a college education will prepare them for a multitude of jobs."
Preparing students for careers is important, of course, but they also must be educated as citizens who are critical thinkers, creative problem solvers, and empathetic individuals.
"Sustainability, diversity, inclusion, and citizenship are critical areas of knowledge we would want them to take with them, in addition to whatever expertise they develop in their majors," he said. "We want them to leave with the skills and knowledge to succeed in their careers, but if that's all we do, we haven't succeeded in our vision. We want to produce graduates who can succeed professionally, and as citizens."
Education is KEY at Indiana University Kokomo.

Portrait of the artist-turned-curator: Alumnus wears his heart on his sleeve at Art Basel Miami Beach
By Alexandra Pecharich
Omar Lopez-Chahoud '90 takes joy in introducing up-and-coming artists to the masses
The glitz and glamour that accompany one of the world's largest gatherings of art—think celebrities and late-night after parties—resonate little with Omar Lopez-Chahoud. Despite his intensive involvement with the scene that surrounds Art Basel Miami Beach, held earlier this month, he does what he does for one reason alone: love.
Since 2012, the independent curator has directed a critically acclaimed concurrent fair, Untitled, that this year corralled works represented by 127 galleries and museums from more than 20 countries.
"I'm always looking after the artist," he says, exhausted but happy as hundreds—later in the day it would be thousands—walk through the stunning, high-ceilinged, temperature-controlled tent in which it all took place. "As curators, we try not only to put a show together, but we become almost like the advisor, the guide, the shepherd."
Much of that sensibility, an almost-paternalistic approach to nurturing the next generation, comes from Lopez-Chahoud's own background as a painter. Trained in France and then at FIU, Yale and the Royal Academy of Arts in London—he left behind his own art for good more than a dozen years ago—he recognizes the inherent difficulty in making a living from creative production, so he champions new work wherever he can.
Omar Lopez-Chahoud '90 curates art shows around the world. Remembering his days at FIU, he speaks fondly of Professor Emeritus James Couper, founding director of what has developed into FIU's Frost Art Museum. "He was very supportive," Lopez-Chahoud says. Above, fairgoers check out Lopez-Chahoud's "Untitled," a satellite show concurrent with Art Basel Miami Beach.
Based in New York, Lopez-Chahoud has curated shows around the world. Earlier this year he worked on a "grassroots" exhibit with artists in Nicaragua and brought together a cross section of contemporary works from Central America for an exhibition in Washington, D.C. He also curated a show for Columbia University's MFA program that, he says, gave him special joy as he interacted with young artists just starting out. In between he traveled to Paris, Venice, Montreal and elsewhere to connect with artists, gallery owners, museum directors and others to discover "art that has integrity, that is well researched," he says, art that he felt should make an appearance in South Florida.
"It could be very quiet art, or it could be about ideas or even touching upon the social and the political," he says. "Art that is important, significant. This is what I have tried to do here."
Within the 50,000-square-foot temporary space set up on the sand at Ocean Drive and 12th Street—where a mix of fancily clad art aficionados and flip flop-shod tourists together braved the grainy terrain—art director Lopez-Chahoud, with help from two assisting Parisian curators, gave the curious public something to see.
Among the intriguing finds on display: flat, wall-hung geometric metalworks painted so as to appear to float in mid-air; a nearly 12-foot-tall stack of slipcovered books; a video of someone sweeping dirt and detritus under a rug of live green sod; a wall-mounted cabinet of found objects; a wooden table strewn with shells and other small specimens begging for inspection.
What Lopez-Chahoud wishes for each of the artists behind these pieces, many of whom are lesser known than their peers in the official Art Basel show at the convention center: "that their works go to important collections, museum collections, because we want to make sure that these works are well taken care of for future generations and that people can have them as a reference of what our time, the present time, was like."
Exuding calm and quick to show kindness—a cousin interrupts him at the fair to introduce a friend and he warmly obliges, despite a line of others pressing for his time—Lopez-Chahoud keeps a tight and hectic schedule. Meeting at the fair with big-time collectors and visiting curators, giving them personal tours and making important introductions to others in the business, he speaks sincerely of wishing to create opportunities for the artists, helping to develop their careers and giving everyone else the chance to share in the treasures.
"At the end of the day, the idea is that many of these works end up in public displays. Museums are where a lot of this art goes, [art] that is owned by the community. The community has access to it," he says, "and that's the idea."

Q: Borel measure taking finitely many values I was doing some problems in measure theory and came across this rather interesting problem:

Let $\mu$ be a Borel measure on $\mathbb{R}$ with $\mu(\mathbb{R})=1$ and $\mu(A) \in \mathbb{Q} \cap [0,1]$ for every Borel set $A$. Show that $\mu$ only takes finitely many values.

How does one even approach this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

A: Hint: Argue by contraposition: assuming $\mu$ attains infinitely many values, show that there are infinitely many disjoint sets of strictly positive measure. Then show that there is a sequence $(A_n)_n$ of disjoint sets such that $0<\mu(A_n)<\mu(A_{n-1})/4$. Given such sequence, show that the set $\{\sum_{n\in X} \mu(A_n)| X\subseteq \mathbf N \}$ is uncountable (by showing that distinct subsets of $\mathbf N$ yield distinct sums).

A: From The Lebesgue  Deocompsition of a measure we have that $\mu=fdm+\nu$
where $m$ is the Lebesgue measure and $\nu$ is singular with respect to the Lebesgue measure.
Also we can decompose $\nu$ to $\nu_1$ and $\nu_2$ where $\nu_1$ is a continuous measure and $\nu_2=\sum_{x \in A}\mu(\{x\})\delta_x$ where $A$ is a countable set and $\mu(\{x\})>0 ,\forall x \in A$
Note the the functions $F(x)=\int_{-\infty}^xf(x)dm$ and  $G(x)=\nu_1((-\infty,x])$  are continuous functions(since the measures are continuous) with values at $\Bbb{Q} \cap [0,1]$ so from Intermediate Value Theorem they must be constant and so they must be zero.
So we proved that $\mu$ is a discrete measure.
If $A$ is infinite take an enumaration of $A$ to be $A=\{x_n:n\in \Bbb{N}\}$
and prove that the set $\{\sum_{n \in I}\mu(\{x_n\}):I \subseteq \Bbb{N}\}$ is uncountable.

A powerful earthquake hit the Sichuan province of China near Ya'an city over the weekend reportedly killing some 200 people.
Many that experienced a similar level of shaking as the 2008 event suffered much less damage. This seems to indicate the Chinese government and people are working hard to reduce the number of fatalities in possible future earthquakes through better building codes and implementation..

Obama's Pesticide-Pushing Nominee
The president taps an exec from the pesticide lobby—which slammed Michelle Obama's organic garden—for a top agriculture post.
Photo by flickr user jekrub used under a Creative Commons license
When Michelle Obama announced plans to plant an organic garden at the White House, nearly everybody thought it was a great idea. Everybody except for the pesticide industry. Representatives from a branch of the industry's main trade association, CropLife America (CLA), wrote to the First Lady asking her to respect the role of "conventional agriculture;" they added in a separate note to supporters that the thought of the White House's chemical-free vegetables made them "shudder." But the public swipe at the president's wife didn't stop the administration from nominating senior CLA executive Islam "Isi" Siddiqui to a key post: chief agricultural negotiator for the office of the US Trade Representative (USTR). If confirmed, Siddiqui will be responsible for, among other things, negotiating international agreements governing the use of pesticides.
CLA is the American branch of CropLife International, a powerful global lobby; its members include agriculture giants such as Dow AgroSciences, Monsanto, and DuPont. Siddiqui joined the CLA in 2001 as a registered lobbyist, and since 2003 has served as its vice president of science and regulatory affairs. In that position, he's played a critical role in setting CLA's domestic and international agenda.
Chiding Michelle Obama for not using "crop protection products" in her garden is one of the milder tactics CLA has deployed in service of its cause. During Siddiqui's tenure at the organization, it has lobbied aggressively to weaken domestic and international regulations on pesticides and other agricultural chemicals.
In 2005, the group participated in secret talks with the Environmental Protection Agency and the Office of Management and Budget on permitting pesticide testing on children. In 2006, CropLife America helped secure an exemption for American farmers for a worldwide ban on methyl bromide, an ozone-depleting pesticide. It has also actively worked to remove what it terms "trade irritants" on pesticides under NAFTA. In its 2008 annual report, CLA highlighted its "relentless" efforts to persuade negotiators to cut language "discriminatory to pesticides" from the 2008 Farm Bill. Meanwhile, its parent organization has fought to eliminate all tariffs on pesticides in World Trade Organization trade negotiations.
After the nomination was announced, more than 80 organizations—including environmental groups and organic and local farm interests—wrote to the Senate Finance Committee in protest. "The Obama administration has said they're not going to put lobbyists in these roles in government, and [Siddiqui] was a lobbyist, he worked for industry," explained Doug Gurian-Sherman, a senior scientist working on food and environmental issues at the Union of Concerned Scientists. "The question is whether he can take a scientific, unbiased perspective on what works and doesn't work, rather than a trade agenda that primarily [supports] large US companies and the technologies they prefer."
While running for president, Obama promised Iowa voters that Big Ag would not call the shots on his administration's farm policy. "We'll tell ConAgra that it's not the Department of Agribusiness," he proclaimed. Yet agribusiness seems pretty satisfied with Siddiqui's nomination—more than 40 companies and trade groups signed a letter applauding it.
Siddiqui is a textbook example of the type of revolving door careerist that Obama promised to shun for key administration posts. Before joining CropLife, he held several jobs in Bill Clinton's Department of Agriculture, including senior agricultural trade adviser and undersecretary for marketing and regulatory programs. During that period, he advocated against efforts to label genetically modified foods.
Following Siddiqui's nomination earlier this year, the White House credited him for having led "the first phase of development for national organic natural food standards in the United States." What press officials didn't mention was that those standards received a barrage of criticism upon their release in 1998. As Mother Jones reported at the time, the first version of the rules "not only included the use of genetically engineered products but also allowed for irradiation and fertilization with sewage sludge—which can contain metals and toxic chemicals." In December 2000, after receiving more than 300,000 public comments, the Department of Agriculture strengthened the rules.
At his November 4 confirmation hearing, Siddiqui faced few tough questions from the finance committee. Only Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) asked for Siddiqui's views on sustainable agricultural practices and about his background working for the petrochemical industry. The nominee's response was vague. "I am a true believer in all processes, systems, whether using conventional means or organic, and I will do my best in terms of representing all these interests in promoting agriculture exports of both organic as well as conventionally grown products," he said.
The committee is expected to approve Siddiqui's nomination sometime this month. And critics aren't optimistic that he'll live up to his word and give sustainable agriculture a fair shake. "Given his background," said Gurian-Sherman, "we think he's going to continue to push the industrial agriculture agenda he's been involved with for the past years."

Q: Changing pairs of quotations marks to left and right quotation marks tl;dr: Want to replace regular quotes ("...") with smart quotes ("..."), within OpenOffice's "Find/Replace" tool that has Regular Expressions turned on.
I figure the best way would be to find 2 instances of " with any length of any characters and white space between them, and replace either the first with a ", or the second with a ".  Then, I could replace all " with the complementary quotation mark.
...it might be easier (for me—on my brain) if it's two separate regular expressions, even though I know some wizard could make it in one.

Okay, you can skip the rest now if you want, the mystical 'cerfs sarcelle' has pranced beyond your view, leaving a wall of text the sole subject...

Basic stuff, I know, but I can't get it quite right.
When looking in to regular expressions, I saw there were dozens of languages they were done in.  None of which I can recognize.  And couldn't find which one OO uses as its native, so I couldn't even use the generator I found to help. :\
I'm editing what's turning in to a novel, and some archaic typography is needed.  Unlike double-spaces after periods, and using an em-dash for interrupted speech, this is a littler trickier to find and replace.
Any help would be much appreciated.
And if someone would be so kind as to break down each and every step of said regular expression, and which would logically be written first... Hell, I'd put you in the dedications (if I was writing it.  Sadly, I am not.)
...and yes, a novel, edited in a free word processor... this will be self-published by the author, and I am doing it pro bono because they're my friend, how did you know?  And?  Why yes, I am unemployed!  You are truly the magnificent seer of our times, o viewer of sadly obvious things!  :P
Thanks!

A: Your idea of replacing pairs of quotation marks will work fine as long as there are no nested quotations (that is quotations within quotations) and no stray quotation marks which throw off the pairing.
Now for the (extended) regular expressions.
The expression you want to replace is: "(.*)".  This searches for a pair of quotation marks with anything in between. The dot matches any one character and the star means zero or more repetitions of whatever precedes it (in this case dot).  The parentheses are for catching whatever is matched in between, so we can refer to it as $1 in the replacement pattern, so we can copy it in the replacement, which should be "$1".
I used https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/How_Tos/Regular_Expressions_in_Writer to determine the specific syntax OpenOffice uses for regular expressions, but it seems mostly pretty standard.

9:24 AM PDT, September 29, 2019 - Inside Edition Staff
Ruby Rose opened up to her followers, sharing a video of an emergency surgery she had after a serious injury at work.
The 33-year-old actress revealed that she herniated two discs while doing stunt work, "and they were close to severing my spinal chord," she wrote.
"I was in chronic pain and yet couldn't feel my arms," Rose shared.
So doctors urged her to have an emergency surgery to correct the problem, or risk being paralyzed.
Rose opted for the surgery and accompanied her post with a graphic video of the procedure.
"To anyone asking why I let them video it.. Did you not watch that Greys anatomy episode where they left a towel in a patient?? Also I wanted to see what happens when we go under," she joked.
Rose said she was left with a "Pez dispenser scar on my neck."
