Once the stuff of science fiction, virtual reality hardware and content are poised to take over the consumer tech market from 2016 onwards. From the ultra-affordable and utilitarian Google Cardboard, all the way to the likes of Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, we've rounded up the best VR headsets available on the market today.
There are two major categories of VR headsets on the market: Affordable options that will attach to a smartphone, and considerably pricier high-end devices that require a powerful gaming PC to deliver optimal experience.
The easiest and most affordable way to experience virtual reality is Google Cardboard. The tech giant's creation will work with most modern smartphones, and requires fairly inexpensive headsets. You can find out more about Google Cardboard, its available content, and supported headset by visiting the project's official website.
Using a high-end smartphone is the best way to experience Google Cardboard content. Such devices feature powerful hardware and sharp displays that will not compromise the quality.
The HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, on the other hand, are considerably pricier than any Google Cardboard device, but also capable of delivering a much more immersive experience. Both options require high-end gaming PCs in order to work.
There are two notable VR devices that didn't make our list due to their lack of availability (for now). They include the Sony PlayStation VR and the LG 360 VR. The former will work with the PlayStation 4 gaming console, while the LG 360 VR will require the freshly launched G5 smartphone in order to deliver the goods. Take a look, below, at the best options available on the market today.
Google Cardboard is undeniably the easiest (and cheapest) way to get a taste of virtual reality content. The viewer is straightforward to set up and works with most Android smartphones, as well as the Apple iPhone. All users have to do is mount their device to the headset and install the free Google Cardboard app. The latter is also a storefront for compatible apps.
Co-developed with Oculus, Samsung's Gear VR headset is designed to work with the tech giant's top-shelf smartphones, including the recently launched Galaxy S7 duo. Comfortable and easy to set up, the device boasts an impressive and constantly growing catalogue of content. It ranges from cool games (through a specially tuned Netflix app), all the way to exclusive video content for the platform.
The View-Master VR Starter Pack by Mattel is a kid-friendly option with a catchy design. It supports Google Cardboard, so there's plenty of content for it. Like Google's utilitarian VR headset, the View-Master VR Starter Pack will work with most of today's high-end smartphones. Mattel offers its own content for the gadget as well.
The Merge VR headset is yet another solid offering with Google Cardboard support. It is designed to work with popular smartphones, including those in the Apple iPhone family. Unlike many Google Cardboard headsets, the Merge VR features a headband, which makes it comfortable for long viewing sessions.
VR headsets can hardly get more minimalistic than the Goggle Tech C1-Glass VR Viewer. The device is designed to work with Google Cardboard, and features a mount that works with most smartphones with a screen diagonal between 4 and 6 inches.
The Zeiss VR ONE is arguably the most upmarket headset with support for Google Cardboard. It has sleek design, solid build quality, and a comfortable headband. Like all Google Cardboard offerings, the Zeiss VR ONE will work with most high-end smartphones — users have to place their handset in a tray and slide it into the VR device. For $10, Zeiss offers trays for owners of popular Samsung and Apple phones. If you're not one of them, and have a 3-D printer, you can download a CAD file and 3-D print the right one for your device.
Due to begin shipping in April, the HTC Vive has had praised heap upon it since its official debut last year. A decidedly upmarket offering, the VR headset packs high-resolution display with wide field of view, 32 sensors for precise motion tracking, and front-facing camera, which can add real world objects to the experience.
Other key features of the HTC Vive include two multifunction trackpads with haptic feedback, and two base stations of motion tracking. The headset requires a powerful gaming PC (HTC has a list of them on the product's page), as well as ample physical for optimal experience—the Vive is best experience in a place where you can walk around a little bit.
HTC Vive will launch with a solid amount of quality content too, courtesy of Steam. Buyers who pre-order the device will get three free games.
The Oculus Rift is another high-end VR headset that's currently available for pre-order. It features a high-res display, integrated headphones, and a neat remote control. The device comes bundled with an Xbox controller as well as a movement sensor.
Like the HTC Vive, the Oculus Rift requires sufficient room, as well as a powerful PC in order to deliver the best user experience. Oculus has listed several gaming PCs on its website.
Microsoft is also offering the Oculus Rift in a bundle with a compatible PC. Configurations start at $1,499 at microsoftstore.com.

Many people find their pets as the adorable companion, aka service animals/pets, keeping them company wherever they go.
Quote of the Week, 3/26/2022, below:
Benjamin Disraeli once said, "Silence is the mother of truth."
To find out more about Benjamin Disraeli, please refer to the excerpt from wikipedia, in italics, below:
Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield, KG, PC, DL, JP, FRS[1] (21 December 1804 – 19 April 1881) was a British statesman and Conservative politician who twice served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. He played a central role in the creation of the modern Conservative Party, defining its policies and its broad outreach. Disraeli is remembered for his influential voice in world affairs, his political battles with the Liberal Party leader William Ewart Gladstone, and his one-nation conservatism or "Tory democracy". He made the Conservatives the party most identified with the glory and power of the British Empire. He is the only British prime minister to have been of Jewish origin. He was also a novelist, publishing works of fiction even as prime minister.
Disraeli was born in Bloomsbury, then a part of Middlesex. His father left Judaism after a dispute at his synagogue; Benjamin became an Anglican at the age of 12. After several unsuccessful attempts, Disraeli entered the House of Commons in 1837. In 1846 the prime minister at the time, Sir Robert Peel, split the party over his proposal to repeal the Corn Laws, which involved ending the tariff on imported grain. Disraeli clashed with Peel in the House of Commons, becoming a major figure in the party. When Lord Derby, the party leader, thrice formed governments in the 1850s and 1860s, Disraeli served as Chancellor of the Exchequer and Leader of the House of Commons.
Upon Derby's retirement in 1868, Disraeli became prime minister briefly before losing that year's general election. He returned to the Opposition, before leading the party to winning a majority in the 1874 general election. He maintained a close friendship with Queen Victoria, who in 1876 elevated him to Earl of Beaconsfield. Disraeli's second term was dominated by the Eastern Question—the slow decay of the Ottoman Empire and the desire of other European powers, such as Russia, to gain at its expense. Disraeli arranged for the British to purchase a major interest in the Suez Canal Company in Egypt. In 1878, faced with Russian victories against the Ottomans, he worked at the Congress of Berlin to obtain peace in the Balkans at terms favourable to Britain and unfavourable to Russia, its longstanding enemy. This diplomatic victory over Russia established Disraeli as one of Europe's leading statesmen.
World events thereafter moved against the Conservatives. Controversial wars in Afghanistan and South Africa undermined his public support. He angered British farmers by refusing to reinstitute the Corn Laws in response to poor harvests and cheap imported grain. With Gladstone conducting a massive speaking campaign, his Liberals defeated Disraeli's Conservatives at the 1880 general election. In his final months, Disraeli led the Conservatives in Opposition.
He had written novels throughout his career, beginning in 1826, and he published his last completed novel, Endymion, shortly before he died at the age of 76.

I went around showrooms and searched online to find the kinds and sizes of models that roll stably when weighted down and meet my working needs and standards. Anyone serious about doing jobs well ought to do the same.
A well-designed and moveable tool chest will enable you to become a more effective craftsman. A durable model will see fewer repairs to worn and broken parts.
With a capacious and well-organized tool chest, you will be able to finish tasks more efficiently, for a satisfying boost in workflow. Having the best tool chest around is particularly handy if you run a busy shop.
In this section, we list a small but useful selection of tool chest reviews, featuring various configurations and features that are designed for easy access.
**Below, you'll find my more detailed reviews about the tool chests, but you can also click the links above to see current prices or read customer reviews on Amazon.
We review all these products here while spelling out the strengths and issues of each product.
With its luggage-like portability and easy access, Stanley's 020800R is the best tool chest for the occasional gig elsewhere.
For some jobs, you have to take your tools to another site or to elsewhere around home. For these times, that large rolling cabinet in your garage will be too much to move. Stanley's portable tool chest has a number of professional features that are useful for occasional work away from the garage.
The strength of this rolling toolbox is its luggage-style shape and telescoping handle makes it easy to schlep this chest through rooms and streets. Dual large wheels make it transportable over ground you can walk on.
Another advantage is the embedded V-groove design on its lid, with which you can hold shorter pipes and wood members for a quick cutting job.
Made of lightweight yet robust structural foam, you will have little trouble rolling this portable tool chest to where you'll need it. The chest has a manageable weight of around 23 pounds for easy portability where larger boxes fear to tread. The latching mechanism quickly secures the entire cabinet with its easy push-to-close mechanism.
Four different-sized storage spaces at various tiers are immediately accessible once you slide to open up the cantilevered frame. Small items can go into topmost bin, which also features a handy tray for storing collections of smaller tools parts. Bigger items can go into the largest and deepest compartment at the bottom.
This is obviously a tool designed for serious tool users, and is likely best portable model available to consumers. The Stanley 020800R FatMax 4-in1 Mobile Work Station may not be right for heavier shop work, but it is the best tool chest for jobs far from home.
An affordable chest that would be a good addition to any garage is Homak's BL04011410, our recommended budget choice.
You don't have to spend much for a rolling tool cabinet of decent quality, and Homak's BL04011410 41-Inch Pro Series 11 Drawer is a good example of this. It's a value-for-money alternative if you need to keep a lot of stuff tidy in compartmented storage.
This is a serious tool chest with eleven steel drawers that is designed and built to last many years. The body and eleven drawers are made of durable, heavy gauge steel, with full-length solid aluminum handles. A high-security tubular locking mechanism has been integrated to hold your valuable tool away from prying eyes and hands.
All exposed surfaces have been powder-coated to resist scratching and rust. There's a convenient top mat supplied to prevent scuffing. The blue power coating certainly stands out and it will embolden the look of any garage.
Of the four sturdy five-inch rubber casters, two swivels and have foot brakes, while the others are fixed in place. Some drawer liners did not hold in place as well as others, but otherwise, everything worked out nicely.
The Homak BL04011410 41-Inch Pro Series 11 Drawer is not priced as much as the higher end shop cabinets, but it mostly works just as good. Of the proven tool chests, it's our budget pick for light-duty and DIY jobs.
Of the bigger models available from well-known brands, Milwaukee's rolling tool chest is a popular choice. This is the kind of serious cabinetry that's typically found around the benches of good mechanics.
If you have a ton of shop equipment or are into the repair trades, you will find proper storage like this compelling, and it is comparatively affordable. Combining both rolling cabinet and chest, both types of storage will prove handy at various times and for different gear.
The heavy-gauge steel frame with reinforcing welds has 16 spaces of various dimensions and types, able to support a load of up to 1,800 pounds in total. In the topmost chest, a board mounted with pegs is convenient for hanging odds and ends, and there's a convenient power strip as well as a rubbery liner to stop scratches.
One of the top drawers has an independently locking mechanism, while another is actually a pullout work tray with a storage compartment below. The bottom drawer on the right offers an organizer for drills and chargers. The chest's top and side handles are robust and well designed.
The top drawers are unlocked with keys that are different from those for the lower drawers. Probably the coolest feature is the secret drawer underneath the lid that comes with its own lock. The independently locking right-side top drawer uses the same key as the rest of the top section.
Nearby holes can be used to mount Milwaukee-brand battery chargers close to the power strip. Along the right side near the cabinet's bottom is a second power strip. There are a very few reports of drawers bumping against the interior power cable runs, however.
You will be making quick work of professional jobs with this tool chest. The Milwaukee Heavy-duty, Drawer 16 Tool Chest 46 Inch is a well-rounded cabinet that most garage owners will find worth the cost.
Knowledgeable guys like to store equipment in chests with wooden surfaces. These absorb moisture that would otherwise affect their tools, leading to rust that's commonly seen with metal cabinetry.
Seville Classics's Workbench is in this pleasing tradition. It has a high price to match its great features, but if you're a pro mechanic or contractor who profits from your craft, only the best tool chest will meet your needs.
The top work surface is a solid slab of hardwood that matches a heavy-gauge steel frame and drawers, and the organic look will go well with many craft shops. It is much recommended due to its wood top design and robust construction that offers the capacity of similar-sized cabinets.
The twelve drawers glide on heavy-duty ball bearing sliders and are organized in rows that make it easier to retrieve whatever you need. The lockable center cabinet has interior shelves that can be adjusted to fit larger items. The spacious top is great for efficient shop work.
Powder coating that's resistant to fingerprints is applied to many exposed parts. The drawers' front panels and their handles are fabricated with a grade of stainless steel that performs as well, and rubber liners protect from scratches.
The huge 5-inch rubber casters steer well under heavy loads. The one downside is that only two swivel and has foot brakes. There is no integrated power strip either, but mounting one is easy enough.
Busy workers work best with professional-grade rolling cabinets like the Seville Classics UltraHD 12-Drawer Rolling Workbench. It will likely become your go-to storage for tools and parts that need to be kept nearby, and is our overall choice for the best tool chest.
A well-made and tool chest with multiple drawers and that rolls around to wherever it's needed is very satisfying to use.
It's a sizeable investment, but will be a very useful one if you're a serious tool user with a lot of jobs on schedule.
Most tool chests are built to last, but a warranty by a big-name manufacturer can give you peace of mind. These premium industrial brands can be called to come over and repair their signature models, should they break under warranty terms. They will be priced high to match the premium construction and service, though.
We cover here a few things that should consider before choosing a tool chest.
Among the first things to consider when looking at a model is the quality of its design and build. Check the materials used in its construction to see how nicely is it assembled. The drawers will have to hold a very heavy load of items and still open and close smoothly. Look for wider drawer slides with more ball bearings in the mechanisms, girded front panels on the lower drawers, and double wall construction in parts.
Gusseted channels reinforcing the areas where each wheel is bolted on can accommodate a heavier weight, allowing you to load up the frame to capacity without deforming the lower drawers or buckling the undersides.
Locks on individual drawers are good for securing the more valuable or dangerous tools, and many chests have locks for a number as well as a master lock for the whole cabinet.
The best designs have durable features such as heavier gauge steel construction and stainless panels, as well as rolled drawer edges. Having tools organized and parts ready in the various compartments will come in handy most days. You will be able to accomplish more tasks right off.
The idea is to keep the floor where you are working clear of items and open for the manhandling of large assemblies. Steel is commonly used in the frames of cabinets for its sturdy and weigh-bearing qualities, along with aluminum fastenings and rubber casters.
One critical feature not to be forgotten is the cabinet's wheels, or casters. For most homeowners and many shops, heavy tool chests are best configured to roll around to various sites when required, remaining stable at all times.
The casters should be made of high-quality polyurethane rubber and not just plastic, in order to support the heaviest loads. Foot brakes make things easier to handle and the best mechanisms are made of steel. Large rubber wheels with sleeved steel axles will ensure the cabinet will keep rolling smoothly for years to come.
Figure out which model has the drawer count, sizes, and arrangement you need for storing things. Also, compare capacities and loads that you will need to store the types and quantities of tools you have. Consider not just your current inventory, but also how your collection of tools might grow over time, and select accordingly.
What are the various drawers for?
Having several drawers at your disposal will let you separate collections of tools from parts and supplies, making items easier to find. Smaller drawers are good for tinier items such as screws and nails as well as wrenches and screwdrivers. Deeper and wider spaces will readily hold bulkier hand tools, including grinders, routers, and drills.
Here is a guide to organizing tool chests.
By investing in a rolling chest with a design and capacity that compels you to use it, your enhanced efficiency will pay off in greater satisfaction over time.
The features of the product are great.
The affordability of this product is also a plus.
And since it has the highest customer rating, I think it indeed has the ability to satisfy the needs of those with many tools.
Looking for the best rolling tool chest is definitely important once you want to be organized. Though you don't have a big tool collection or you are not using your equipment a lot often it would be a wise decision that you consider the best tool chest.

Apple iOS, Google Android feared to be hitting middle age as five year old platforms
By Daniel Eran Dilger
Friday, January 20, 2012, 01:28 pm PT (04:28 pm ET)
A market research group has teamed up with a business analyst to conceptualize the notion that mobile operating systems only last for ten years, peaking after five, an idea that suggests Apple and Google are approaching their apex at middle age and risk an imminent decline.
Market research group Strategy Analytics and RBC Capital Market analyst Mark Sue both highlighted a trend in comparing RIM's beleaguered Blackberry OS, Microsoft's abandoned Windows Mobile, the dead Palm OS and Nokia's now comatose Symbian, all of which were first introduced as smartphone operating systems around 2002.
A graphic produced by Strategy Analytics shows a particularly convincing lines that suggest Apple's iOS and Google's Android might be fated to follow the same paths, given that both turn five later this year.
"History shows that operating systems peak in the middle of a 10-year cycle," Sue wrote in a note to investors, adding that while iOS and Android are both currently selling lots of devices, their "sustainability beyond five years remains to be seen."
The chart doesn't depict why mobile operating systems of the past peaked after just a few years, nor does it delve into details related to market trends, such as the mass conversion of PDAs to smartphones ten years ago, or the tremendous shift from basic feature phones to smartphones going on today.

The Palm OS was actually developed in 1996 to run handheld organizers, and didn't start to become a smartphone platform until the Handspring Treo was introduced in 2002, at which point its underlying technology was already five years old.
Microsoft's Windows Mobile was similarly an effort to sell the company's Windows CE mobile "handheld PC" platform to drive phones. Its WinCE core similarly originated in 1996 and wasn't used in smartphones until 2002.
Nokia's Symbian also originated as an OS behind pocket organizers, first by Psion in the late 80s. The initial Nokia Symbian smartphones were released in 2001, at which the core technology behind them was already over a decade old.
RIM's Blackberry OS first originated in the company's pagers in 1999 and started being used in the company's smartphones in 2002.
That means the world's "old" smartphone operating systems all came into their current role when smartphones began as an observable trend almost exactly ten years ago.
Their actual "ages" in 2002 ranged from about three to 13 years, and each developed in wildly different circumstances. BlackBerry and Palm OS were originally completely proprietary, essentially embedded operating systems while Windows Mobile (and later Palm OS) were broadly licensed, while Symbian evolved from an embedded OS to a broadly licensed platform to an open source project.
In addition to these well known smartphone platforms, a variety of embedded platforms created by Motorola, LG, Samsung and other smartphone vendors over the past decade have combined custom code, Linux, Java and Adobe's Flash Lite to deliver smartphone products, all of which also suddenly began to decline in popularity exactly five years ago.
From that perspective, there is zero correlation between age and the sudden nosedive of all these operating systems five years ago, the date Apple introduced the iPhone.
Unless another company introduces a new product with the ability to suddenly disrupt the public's interest in today's five year old iOS and Android, Apple and Google should not have too much to worry about.
Other evidence that doesn't support a ten year life span
Speaking for Strategy Analytics, Alex Spektor, told Fortune in an interview that "no single platform has consistently dominated for eternity. Something better and newer comes along and pushes it out of leadership position."
Spektor also noted that "after operating systems drop from their 5-year peak" their vendors suddenly refresh and replace them, acknowledging such revitalizing efforts such as Palm's webOS in 2009, Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 toward the end of 2010, and RIM's efforts to deliver its new QNX-based BlackBerry X last year.
So far, none of these efforts have turned things around; RIM is still struggling to deliver its new OS for its smartphones, while Palm sold itself off to HP and its new technology was largely scuttled due to a management crisis. Microsoft's valiant efforts to promote WP7 over the past year have only resulted in the company losing the remains of its existing market share.
Nokia's initial efforts to modernize Symbian within an ambitious open source project, and its parallel efforts to launch Maemo/Meego Linux, were both abandoned last year after failing to turn things around quickly enough. None of these efforts were anywhere near reaching a five year apex; they simply failed to introduce the same level of disruption in the market that Apple's iOS caused five years ago.
Is iOS getting old?
While all of the original smartphone operating systems now in decline are based on code that is least a decade old this year, Apple's iOS is based on a core platform that outdates all of them. From its kernel to its APIs to its developer tools, the iOS has a direct lineage dating back to 1988, when Steve Jobs first showed off the NeXT Computer.
Rather than age, the biggest differentiation between Apple's iOS and the initial wave of smartphone operating systems was that Apple's iOS was derived from a platform-agnostic desktop operating system founded on Unix and an advanced object oriented development system, rather than being an embedded mobile OS with a pedigree of running PDAs, pagers, and handheld organizers.
It was actually this "age" and sophistication that enabled Apple to disrupt the smartphone market with a brand new product, because the iPhone greatly benefited from having a mature kernel, APIs and development tools.
Google's Android, while based on existing Danger technology and incorporating existing Linux and Java technology, still changed enough of its core design so that it has taken years for the platform to achieve a level of stability and maturity that it can be compared in some respects to Apple's iOS.
The platform that can, does
Unlike any other smartphone operating system, iOS still shares significant kernel, API and development tool technology with both the desktop Mac OS X and with other successful mobile devices outside of the smartphone, including iPad, iPod touch and Apple TV.
HP, Palm, Microsoft and RIM have all failed in their attempts to introduce tablet or handheld PC products beyond smartphones. Even Google's Android platform hasn't managed to drive significant sales of tablets or set top boxes, despite major initiatives over the past two years seeking to achieve that.
Additionally, when Google attempted to enter the notebook market with Chromebook, it didn't even try to use Android, but rather developed a parallel effort. Similarly, Microsoft's next efforts to sell PCs and tablets will revolve around Windows 8, which bears little in common with its WP7 smartphone platform on a kernel, API or development tool level.
After expressing morbid concerns about the fate of Apple's nearly five year old iOS, Spektor acknowledged that "the outcome isn't the same for all platforms."

The women who had seen Him die and watched where He was laid. They prepared their spices and ointments then rested on the Sabbath.
The women went into the tomb when they discovered the stone rolled away.
Angels, obviously. Apparel was such the women knew they weren't regular men.
Jesus had told them several times what was going to happen, but they never comprehended it.
On the third day, not after the third day. Third day, after three days, three days and three nights all mean the same thing. Event happens on the first day, next day is second day, next one after that is the third day. Counting days not passage of time.
Others besides the apostles. Other disciples and followers.
No one remembered what Jesus had told them. And when women they knew and should have trusted told them He was gone and they'd seen and spoken with angels, they wouldn't believe.
John tells us that he and Peter both went to the tomb. John outran Peter, but he didn't go in. Peter went into the tomb when he arrived. Both saw the cloths lying there with no body, but no one else.
One is later named as Cleopas. And when they returned to Jerusalem it says they found the eleven. So the other must not have been of the apostles either. As Emmaus is so close and they didn't get there until late, assumption is that they didn't leave Jerusalem until after lunch.
Just joined them on the road as another traveler. Nothing supernatural about His appearance as in He didn't just appear before them out of thin air. So they didn't think anything of it.
Where have you been hiding? Where you been?
Interesting how they described Jesus. From their point of view, He was a Prophet whether He was the Messiah or not. And obviously they hoped, and maybe had believed, He was the Messiah. But His death had thrown a wrench in their belief since they never understood when He told them He had to die. But He's about to remedy that situation.
They admit things are happening, but they aren't sure whether to believe He has risen or not. The body was gone, but nobody has seen Him. Of course, other gospels tell us Mary Magdalene did see Him at the tomb at some point. Will need to correlate with them to get a timeline, but if she didn't tell the others until after these two left, they wouldn't know about that.
You have the scriptures. Why won't you believe what the prophets said?
One doesn't need the New Testament to learn of Jesus. The entire Old Testament was about Him as well. The information has always been there. Problem was with man's disbelief in what God said and his self-centeredness which caused him to misinterpret what he read. They liked the parts where the Messiah is a king who conquers all His foes and sets up His kingdom, but paid little attention to the suffering servant who came to save all of mankind.

We've recently completed the upgrade to Google Maps API v3. We believe the upgrade will result in better performance, but we mostly made the upgrade because Google required us to do so. If you see any problems with the upgrade please let us know.
It should be working in IE now. If you are still seeing issues can you provide some more details about the problem you are seeing?
We have discovered some more issues in IE that we are working to resolve. We hope to have them fixed soon.
IE bugs should be resolved now.
Can you provide a link to the map in question?
the zoom in and zoom out is working now but not properly, if you have selected a marker, the zoom does not go in on the marker.
Another problem: when you open the map, the explanation box for the last marker selected is open even though it had been closed when the map was closed out.
We've changed the code so that zooming in when a marker is selected will center on the marker as well as zoom.
If you unselect a marker and then click "Save Map State" then it will not reopen when you next open the map.
Thank you, everything is working right now.
The other maps all seem to be working.
Hi I can't get this map to zoom or move around at all.
I am unable to open one of my maps. Please Help!!

Wednesday of week 23 in Ordinary Time
Let us adore the Lord, for it is he who made us.
Other saints: St Deiniol (- 584)
He was the first Bishop of Bangor. He may have been consecrated in 545 by St David.
Second Reading: St Bernard of Clairvaux (1090 - 1153)
Bernard was born near Dijon, in France, in 1090, of a noble family. In 1112 he joined the new monastery at Cîteaux. This had been founded fourteen years before, in a bid to reject the laxity and riches of much of the Benedictine Order of the time (as exemplified by the great monasteries such as Cluny) and to return to a primitive poverty and austerity of life.
Bernard arrived at Cîteaux with four of his five brothers and two dozen friends. Within three years he had been sent out to found a new monastery at Clairvaux, in Champagne, where he remained abbot for the rest of his life. By the time of his death, the Cistercian Order ("the Order of Cîteaux") had grown from one house to 343, of which 68 were daughter houses of Clairvaux itself.
Bernard was a man of great holiness and wisdom, and although he was often in very poor health, he was active in many of the great public debates of the time. He strongly opposed the luxurious lives of some of the clergy, and fought against the persecution of the Jews. He was also a prolific writer, and the Liturgy of the Hours uses extracts from many of his sermons.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ©
Love is always patient and kind; it is never jealous; love is never boastful or conceited; it is never rude or selfish; it does not take offence, and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins but delights in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes.
1 Corinthians 13:8-9,13 ©
Love does not come to an end. But if there are gifts of prophecy, the time will come when they must fail; or the gift of languages, it will not continue for ever; and knowledge – for this, too, the time will come when it must fail. For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophesying is imperfect. In short, there are three things that last: faith, hope and love; and the greatest of these is love.
Colossians 3:14-15 ©
Over all these clothes, to keep them together and complete them, put on love. And may the peace of Christ reign in your hearts, because it is for this that you were called together as parts of one body. Always be thankful.
