Q: How can I remove the simulators from my build targets? In Xcode, I have a project that uses a library only built for the device.
I now run into the issue whenever I disconnect my phone and reconnect it, Xcode wants to build for a simulator, which I don't want.
Is there a way to exclude the simulators from the build targets list?

A: It's not project specific but from the 'Devices' window you can remove a simulator from the run destinations list. Simply right click on one and you'll see

You'll have to do it to all of your installed simulators, but you can remove  them.

With Congress divided, Democrat-led states may take the lead in expanding paid family and sick leave
The United States entered 2023 as one of the few wealthy countries without national, guaranteed paid sick or family leave, leaving state lawmakers to fill in the gaps.
Grace Panetta
Political reporter
The United States started 2023 as, yet again, one of the few wealthy nations without any national paid family leave or paid sick leave program. And with Congress divided, advocates are turning to the states to bolster benefits for workers and families — pointing to the nationwide rollback of abortion access and a "tripledemic" of COVID-19, RSV and seasonal flu that swept the nation as proof of the urgency of these measures.
Congressional Democrats' attempt to pass four weeks of federal paid family leave in 2021 fell apart in the U.S. Senate, leaving a patchwork of rules for workers and businesses to navigate. Almost all the states that have passed paid family leave, paid sick leave or both are led by Democrats — and Democrats' gains at the state level in the 2022 midterms are fueling advocates' hopes of getting more laws passed this year.
The state-by-state nature of these rules means millions of American workers have no paid family or sick leave. Lack of access to paid leave disproportionately impacts workers of color and especially women of color, who already face the starkest pay gaps in comparison to White workers. Research conducted by the National Partnership for Women and Families in collaboration with civil rights groups has found that over half of Latinx workers and over a third of Black workers reported having access to zero paid sick days per year. None of the states that banned or heavily restricted abortion after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade have passed paid family leave programs.
"While some of our elected officials don't seem to see the urgency of work-family support like paid medical and family leave, paid sick leave and child care, families are still really feeling these pressures and making those demands," Sharita Gruberg, vice president for economic justice at the National Partnership for Women and Families, told The 19th.
As of 2023, 13 states and the District of Columbia have passed paid family leave programs, and 14 states and D.C. have enacted paid sick leave programs. But an estimated 28 million American workers still have no guaranteed paid sick time, according to research from the National Partnership for Women and Families.
More from The 19th
With no child tax credit and inflation on the rise, families are slipping back into poverty
Colorado may soon be the first state to guarantee its lawmakers 12 weeks of paid parental leave
Jessica Ramey Stender, policy director and legal director for Equal Rights Advocates, attributes the gaps in federal law to lawmakers not prioritizing families, especially women, who are more likely to be primary caregivers.
"The fact that Congress has ignored paid sick leave and paid family leave harms all working families. But it really has a disproportionate impact on women because women are still often the ones in a family who take time off to care for a sick family member or a loved one," Stender told The 19th.
Rep. Haley Stevens of Michigan, a Democrat, is a member of a bipartisan task force in the House of Representatives working to pass a federal paid family leave program after numerous "stops and starts" on the issue under multiple administrations. Stevens said she's "optimistic" that the group can accomplish progress on paid family leave and "make a difference."
"We are going to take a deep dive and really sit down with a lot of the stakeholder groups," Stevens told The 19th. "Folks recognize that using accrued vacation or sick leave in instances where that isn't available is just not cutting it, and we have people being left out of the workplace."
But advocates and policymakers aren't waiting on Congress. Democratic state legislatures have for years led the charge on paid leave, workplace anti-discrimination protections and pay equity laws, with Delaware and Maryland becoming the latest states to pass paid family leave in 2022.
"They did it because they saw that people in their state needed it and really pushed it over the finish line," Gruberg said. "And what we're expecting with these new Democratic trifecta states is some more movement."
Gruberg and Stender are energized by the results of the 2022 midterm elections, where Democrats flipped multiple state legislative chambers, flipped and held key governorships and gained control of state government in four states. In Minnesota, Gruberg noted, each chamber of the state legislature had previously passed a paid family leave law that now has a much higher chance of passing with a Democratic trifecta – the government plus both legislative chambers – in the state.
"The November election really opened the door to more state opportunities," she said.
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), which turns 30 in 2023, guarantees 12 weeks of unpaid leave for most workers but covers only those who have worked for 12 months at a workplace with a certain number of employees — leaving many gig, contract and domestic workers without any guaranteed leave.
Some states are aiming to address those gaps with laws protecting domestic workers and expanding access to paid leave to more categories of workers.
"When you have really critical workers and critical industries not having access to paid sick leave, that's a problem for our whole economy," Gruberg said. "Just because your workplace doesn't offer paid sick leave doesn't mean you're not going to get sick."
In California, Stender and Equal Rights Advocates helped pass new bills, which went into effect January 1, that expand the state's paid family leave program to allow workers to take time off care for extended and chosen family members and guarantee five days of protected bereavement leave.
"Fighting for policy change in California for women and other working people is critical because it not only benefits women and workers here in California, but it really does often set a blueprint for other states and hopefully, ultimately, the federal government to follow," Stender said.
It's not just paid leave that Congress has largely left to the states. Congress' 2022 omnibus spending bill included landmark federal labor protections for pregnant and breastfeeding workers but did not revive the expanded child tax credit. The tax credit, expanded in the 2021 American Rescue Plan, helped spur a 40-percent drop in child poverty between 2020 and 2021. But Congress let it expire at the end of that year, and the number of children living below the poverty line has steadily increased.
"The expansion showed, really clearly, that poverty is a policy choice," Gruberg said of the child tax credit. "And it is unconscionable to not continue these measures to support lifting children and families out of poverty."
The expanded child tax credit also more readily allowed parents to access child care and participate in the workforce, which benefited the overall economy, advocates and many business owners argue.
Anne Zimmerman, a certified public accountant and a co-chair of Small Business for America's Future, told The 19th that the expanded child tax credit lapsing is yet another barrier that contributes to an "uneven playing field" between small businesses and large companies with generous benefits in hiring and retaining workers.

"It makes the challenge of finding workers that much harder," said Zimmerman, founder and owner of a Cincinnati-based accounting firm.
In a survey the organization conducted in September 2021, over 60 percent of small business owners supported the expanded child tax credit and said regular monthly payments enabled employees to afford dependable child care.
"That certainly benefits us as small businesses because we need workers with stable schedules," Zimmerman said. "All of Main Street needs affordable, reliable child care, and I think that'll hurt us."
The states are yet again stepping in, with lawmakers in New York and Connecticut proposing state-level expansions of the child tax credit, Pluribus News reported. Stender said legislators in California will probably also pursue state-level child tax credit expansions and efforts to increase salaries for childcare workers.
But workers and businesses in Republican-controlled states unlikely to pass an expanded child tax credit or benefits for working parents, like Ohio, will still be left out in the cold.
"It puts one more hardship on that family, on that mother trying to work that I'm trying to hire," Zimmerman said.

Veterans Day, November 11, 2010
boots and handsno caption needed
In hailing the end of World War I President Wilson declared "Armistice Day." In 1938 the U.S. Congress designated it as "a day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace." It was subsequently renamed "Veterans Day" in 1954.

And perhaps in another 20 years, it will be renamed yet again – maybe to "the soldiers who have given their life, but at what cost" day. SImilar to Veteran's Day, but closer to the truth. This simple "Thank You" caption and the soldier's left hook clearly describe the democratic conventions of the war. The white hand, shaking 'thank you' with great strength, is clean, sturdy and strong. There are no visual cues that represent hardship in this white man's life. However, with the war-torn soldier, even though properly attired and with great stature, the hardships lie within him. He has fought for his country and battled across nations,yet here he is getting a mere "thank you" from the man who sent him off. A thank you for what, even ? For losing limbs at war so this white man can sleep at night? For gunning down strangers in foreign countries so that strangers in his own homeland may remain "free"? For the mere courage and bravery of becoming a soldier? We all know too well a simple "Thank You" will never be enough to show our gratitude for these soldiers fighting for our country; however, it is so easily said and far less shown.
Jordan says
I think one of the most important facets of this illustration is the fact that the solider doesn't have a face. The head was left out for a reason, and just solidifies the notion that the soldiers that are fighting for us are generic-their body matters but their individuality doesn't. As Erica said, the white gloved hand does illustrate strength and seems sturdy and grounded, and the other hand, or hook rather, that shows the implications of the war and the weakness that is inflicted on the soldiers who are so strong to fight for us in the first place. It's crazy the power of a simple cartoon.
Well Erica you are an idiot. That man isn't a "soldier" he is a United States Marine. He answered a calling to protect and serve the nation that has given him everything he knows. He knows that freedom isn't free. He shakes your hand and looks you in the eye. He says what he means and means what he says. He is a Hero. It's important for you to undertsand that soldeir refers to Army not all members of the Military.
It is embarrasing as an American that you would even make a joke about changing the name of Veterans Day to "The soldiers who have given their life,but at what cost." If that is really how you feel you should ask any one of 3/5 families who have 64 casualties ( which in military terms means killed or wounded). These men and women continue to enlist and re-enlist because of their commitment to American posterity.
It is so typical for you to mention race and it shows just how ignorant you are. How do you know that "white man" isn't the Marines father? How do you know he isn't a veteran himself ? How do you know that man isn't married to a service member or child of one? You don't but you love to assume. You should also note that the majority of the men in uniform are WHITE – astonishing. the percentage of white active-duty recruits with no prior military service was 65.3 percent in 2006 and 65.5 percent in 2007. Based on calculations from the Integrated Public Use Microdata Series (IPUMS), almost 62 percent of the U.S. male population ages 18 to 24 classified themselves as white in 2006.[8] The troop-to-population ratio in these years was 1.05, indicating that the representation of whites in the military is similar to, although slightly above, their representation in the overall population.So you can hate all you want but that man in the Dress Blues is probably white himself. And that uniform he wears signifies his code of honor, courage and commitment. Every detail of the dress blues uniform reflects the proud legacy of Marines who have served for more than two centuries:
The buttons featuring the eagle and anchor have been on the uniform since 1804, making them the oldest military insignia in continued use.
The "blood stripe" runs down each trouser leg of the dress blues worn by noncommissioned officers, staff noncommissioned officers and officers. The solid red stripe became part of the uniform in 1849. Today, it serves to honor the memory of fallen comrades.
The collar of today's dress blues reflects the original Marine uniform of the American Revolution, which had a high leather neck to help protect Marines from sword blows.
Because it embodies Marine Corps history, rigorous standards apply to wearing this uniform and every Marine upholds those standards with pride.
He knows the sacrifice it takes to keep his family safe and preventing terorism because he has held the hand on dying men. He has been a pall bearer to countless funerals and he knows everyday his kids wake up with out a terrorism attack is exactly why he will Kill anyone who threatens that. He doesn't believe in peace talks anymore, he believes in fighting fire with fire. At WHAT COST ? Do you know the mission of the military it is to win the hearts and minds of the Iraqi's and Afghani's. That is why we are building schools, giving fod and water and not aloud to take fire when a civilian is at risk even if it will cost American lives. Maybe you don't remember Sept 11? Or
The Dujail Massacre of 1982:
In July of 1982, several Shiite militants attempted to assassinate Saddam Hussein while he was riding through the city. Hussein responded by ordering the slaughter of some 148 residents, including dozens of children. This is the only war crime on which Hussein has been charged, and he will almost certainly be executed before any other charges go to trial.
The Barzani Clan Abductions of 1983:
Masoud Barzani led the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP), an ethnic Kurdish revolutionary group fighting Baathist oppression. After Barzani cast his lot with the Iranians in the Iran-Iraq War, Hussein had some 8,000 members of Barzani's clan, including hundreds of women and children, abducted. It is assumed that most were slaughtered; thousands have been discovered in mass graves in southern Iraq.
The al-Anfal Campaign:
The worst human rights abuses of Hussein's tenure took place during the genocidal al-Anfal Campaign (1986-1989), in which Hussein's administration called for the extermination of every living thing–human or animal–in certain regions of the Kurdish north. All told, some 182,000 people–men, women, and children–were slaughtered, many through use of chemical weapons. The Halabja poison gas massacre of 1988 alone killed over 5,000 people. Hussein later blamed the attacks on the Iranians, and the Reagan administration, which supported Iraq in the Iran-Iraq War, helped promote this cover story.
The Campaign Against the Marsh Arabs:
Hussein did not limit his genocide to identifiably Kurdish groups; he also targeted the predominantly Shiite Marsh Arabs of southeastern Iraq, the direct descendants of the ancient Mesopotamians. By destroying more than 95% of the region's marshes, he effectively depleted its food supply and destroyed the entire millennia-old culture, reducing the number of Marsh Arabs from 250,000 to approximately 30,000. It is unknown how much of this population drop can be attributed to direct starvation and how much to migration, but the human cost was unquestionably high.
or The Post-Uprising Massacres of 1991:In the aftermath of Operation Desert Storm, the United States encouraged Kurds and Shiites to rebel against Hussein's regime–then withdrew and refused to support them, leaving an unknown number to be slaughtered. At one point, Hussein's regime killed as many as 2,000 suspected Kurdish rebels every day. Some two million Kurds hazarded the dangerous trek through the mountains to Iran and Turkey, hundreds of thousands dying in the process.
Probably not. But when your liberal ideologies infest more minds , it will be a sad day when more people die on American Soil because of tolerance and complacency. I hope your children are not kidnapped and murdered, your throat isn't slit,beheaded then televised. I hope your dead body isn't drug through the streets and I really hope you have a fighting force that is as honest and humane as we are that are willing to sacrifice their lives so that you might be saved.

Firstly, on behalf of the bridesmaids I would like to thank Marty, for his kind words and I must say, to our lovely bride, Ruby, a more Luminescent Bride, I have not seen.
For those of you who don't know me, I'm Sean, one of Marty's closest friends for over 15 years, sometime confidant, usually a partner in crime, and today (with pride), Marty's Best Man.
My official duties I have covered, those including, making sure the groom arrived, On-Time (difficult), Sober (relatively), and Smart (well, two out of three ain't bad).
15 years later, in a land far far away (Irvine), I met an intelligent, and very hyper young lad, named Marty, being similar myself, we hit off well together and (to our parents horror) rapidly became the best of friends forever more.
Now traditionally, I get to insert numerous very embarrassing stories about Marty here, unfortunately, my courier got tired trying to carry the two boxes of typed pages I had, and called it quits halfway here, so I will have to make do from my short notes.
Adventure is the word I would choose to describe Marty's life, a non-stop roller coaster ride of thrills, chills, and spills (and the judicious use of antilock brakes). Many is the night, we've been out to drinking and dancing, and there's Marty, middle of the dance floor, living it up (and charming the ladies with his wicked dance moves).
In seriousness though, Ruby and Marty have begun a truly wonderful life together, today's ceremonies, sealing together two spirits that have already begun traveling the path of two becoming one. I offer my own blessings, two you both, my friends, for a continued happy journey down that path, in a long, prosperous, and happy life together.
Family and friends, I ask you now to raise your glasses in a toast, to Marty and Ruby Reinhart.

Editor's note: This is historical fiction.
When I was about 10 in the late 1950s, we used to live in a small town of Rajasthan. It used to be a leading industrial centre till labour unrest did it in.
Of late, the town has re-emerged in a new avatar to become a coaching hub for all sorts of competitive exams. It is also the backdrop of Revolution 2020 by Chetan Bhagat.
By the standards of those days we were a small family. Parents and four siblings, two brothers, two sisters. The eldest was Tanvi but Tanu for us. I was next. I am Ramesh, and so naturally called Ramu, what else.
Next was Bhagat but Baghi for the family. He didn't mind the appellation.
Santosh brought up the rear. Her pet name was Toasty but parents called her Bhichhu, as she was prone to tell the bitter truth with her toothy smile. And bite.
The siblings jelled well, particularly in adverse conditions. We named ourselves as the Fearsome Four.
The behaviour pattern of the Fearsome Four could easily have been included as a classic in any OB class of any Management school worldwide. But alas!

Futurama's back. Soon it will be entering a new season on TV. This series will consist of 3(?) straight to DVD movies, which are then cut up and placed on air as episodes. Bender's Big Score is the first of these straight to DVD movies. The plot involves a bit of time travel, but is not the only reason the pacing and timing of the show is off. Still, more Futurama, even if not in its prime, is better than most television and worth watching for fans of the series.
Time travel plots can be a bit hard to follow. Futurama has never really needed you to pay attention to more than a few basic points to follow the story (Santa is an evil robot, etc.). Bender's Big Score's time travel storyline is not exactly a complex one (Legacy of Kain's is far more convoluted), but if you aren't following it closely, then some of the jokes and settings stop being funny or making sense. Combined with a slightly slower pacing, you may space out for a bit and just absorb the constant references to older shows, forgetting that you need to pay attention to what just happened.
Overall, Bender's Big Score could not quite decide it it was a movie, or a series of episodes. As a movie, it repeated plot aspects and lines a bit too often (every 22 minutes). That which when done in a weekly format would have been a running gag turns into repetition. As episodes, I'm not sure the overall plot would work well from week to week, where there is not much progression or no real conclusion at the end of each episode (think Dragonball Z).
Still, it is fan service. There are near constant references to older characters and plot lines. Much like Family Guy had high expectations on its return, perhaps the Futurama movie can't quite live up to the hype.

According to the worldwide round-up on deadly violence and abusive treatment of media personnel that RSF published yesterday. "Imprisoning journalists, denying them medical care while they are detained and denying them the right to a fair trial constitute a flagrant violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, to which Iran is party," RSF points out.

Fotis Dulos attorney disputes claims in unsealed warrants
NEW HAVEN – While he says he respects the gag order, imposed by Stamford Superior Court Judge John Blawie, Fotis Dolos' attorney, Norm Pattis, did respond Thursday to claims made in the warrants unsealed Wednesday. There were nearly 500 pages of unsealed warrants, much of which was repetitive information.

After figuring out the positioning, we took Chromaggus down on our first attempt! Great job Butchers! Nefarian, you are NEXT! We are there now, cross your fingers.
What phat lewts did he drop?
"If something can go wrong it will"
"Were you like...in an accident?"
"No... me mother was a tree"
Think he's saying we either get the kill in 4 tries or take 4 weeks. Of course, I think the only fights the latter applies to are Rag and Vael so far.
That was a good kill. While we didn't get Nef it was funny slide show!

The American Civil War, day by day
Those who do not remember the past are condemned to relive it. Note: nostalgia *is* allowed.

May 21, Tuesday
In Missouri General Sterling Price, representing the state and the pro-secessionists, and General Harney for the United States sign a proclamation in which they agree that Price is to direct the power of the state officers to maintain order, and that Harney will not bring in the Federal Army if order is maintained. This is interpreted by Blair and Lyon as being a virtual surrender of the state.
In Washington President Lincoln sends a dispatch, signed and in part composed by Secretary of State Seward, to British minister Charles Francis Adams, instructing him to desist from contact with the British government as long as it continues intercourse with "the domestic enemies of this country."
On the last day of the second session of the Provisional Congress of the Confederacy President Davis announces that he has signed a bill to make the Provisional Constitution permanent. Meeting for the last time in Montgomery, Congress still debates moving the headquarters of the Confederacy. Some members favor other places or advocate Montgomery over Richmond. But the majority believes that military and psychological advantages give the edge to the Virginia city. President Davis also signs one bill outlawing the payment by Southerners of money due Northern merchants, and approves another prohibiting cotton trade except through Confederate ports.
The oldest active Federal warship, USS Constellation, veteran of the War of 1812, captures a slave ship off the mouth of the Congo.

May 22, Wednesday
General Benjamin F. Butler arrives to take command at strategic Fort Monroe, Virginia.
It is reported that the market in Europe for Confederate securities is weak.
May 23, Thursday
The citizens of Virginia vote three to one in favor of secession. Many lukewarm secessionists feel they cannot oppose the action of their state and, anyway, the referendum is after the fact. In western Virginia, however, the vote is overwhelmingly against secession, but that area is already breaking away from the Old Dominion. In the eastern and central parts of the state the vote is heavily in favor of secession. For the ordinance of secession, 96,750; against, 32,134.
Troops of Benjamin F. Butler move out from Fort Monroe toward Hampton, Virginia, in a mild reconnaissance with little or no shooting.
For almost a month, until June 17, Federal troops will carry out scouting activities against Amerinds on the Mad and Eel rivers of California.
May 24, Friday
As stealthily as partially trained troops can move, the Federals advance across the Potomac at Washington and occupy Alexandria, Virginia. A small Confederate detachment in the city quickly leaves as the three regiments and other units cross by the Long Bridge or land from steamers. The Virginia ends of the bridge are seized and by sunrise fortifications are going up. The Virginia troops retreat in good order; few shots are fired. The North has taken a primary step to defend its capital and set its foot upon the soil of Virginia.
Added to the strategy and the thrill of the first advance is the tragic, dramatic death of youthful Elmer Ellsworth. Twenty-four, organizer of a famous Zouave drill team, Ellsworth leads the First Fire Zouaves, or Eleventh New York. Colonel Ellsworth with a few companies rushing toward the center of Alexandria sees a secession flag flying from the Marshall House and enters to take it down. Descending the stairs with the banner Ellsworth is confronted by the hotel keeper, James Jackson. Jackson blasts Ellsworth with his shotgun; Jackson is immediately fatally shot by Private Francis E. Brownell.
Ellsworth's death plunges the North into a patriotic spasm of grief; the body lies in state in the White House. A friend of the President, Ellsworth becomes a martyr for the Federal cause. As the tears and cries of rage spread through the North, so, too, does Jackson become a martyr to the South. Poems, songs, and graphic drawings circulate widely, dramatizing the incident. A beautiful and noble life ended, the Northern press proclaims; "Jackson perished a'mid the pack of wolves," the South proclaims. But as far as the war is concerned, the Federals have gained by force of arms a foothold on Virginia soil to add to that at Fort Monroe, maintained by wisely increased Federal garrisons.
Elsewhere, General Benjamin Butler at Fort Monroe refuses to give up three Negro slaves who came into his lines, holding them as "contraband" of war, thus raising the whole issue of treatment of slaves by the Federals.
In Missouri the state troops of Governor Jackson and Sterling Price refuse to disband.
A former US Army captain, Ulysses S. Grant, offers his services to the Union but gets no reply.
May 25, Saturday
Funeral services are held in the East Room of the White House for Colonel Elmer Ellsworth. The President and Mrs. Lincoln are present. The President writes the parents of young Ellsworth, "So much of promised usefulness to one's country, and of bright hopes for one's self and friends, have rarely been so suddenly dashed, as in his fall." Death in war is still new, soon it will receive less attention.
President Davis writes to a committee of the Maryland legislature thanking them for their sympathies with the cause of vindicating "the right of Self-Government," and assuring them of the genuine desire for peace, but pointing out the failure of any peaceful relations with the United States.
May 26, Sunday
Major General George B. McClellan, from Cincinnati, orders three Federal columns into western Virginia to protect the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and aid the pro-unionists of the area. The main drive is toward Grafton.
Postmaster General Blair of the United States rules that postal ties with the Southern states will end May 31.
Agitation continues both North and South over the Alexandria affair and the deaths of Ellsworth and Jackson, with hot words appearing editorially in many papers.
Federal blockades are set up at Mobile by USS Powhatan, and at New Orleans by USS Brooklyn.
May 27, Monday
Troops of General Butler from Fort Monroe are sent eight miles by boats to take Newport News, Virginia, the operation to be completed without opposition by May 29. This gives the Federals at Fort Monroe a larger staging area for future operations.
Chief Justice William B. Taney rules that the military arrest of John Merryman in Maryland has violated the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus and that the President does not have the authority to suspend this privilege. The case arises out of the arrest of Merryman for allegedly recruiting for a Confederate regiment and his imprisonment by General Cadwalader in Baltimore. Ex Parte Merryman will become a highly debated case. Cadwalafer claimed that the President had authorized him to suspend the writ in such cases. President Lincoln later holds that he has the power of such suspension in certain cases and continues to execute it. His grounds are that the Constitution provides for suspension in cases of rebellion or invasion where public safety requires it.
The President is concerned about events in Missouri and informs General W.S. Harney that the reported mistreatment of citizens loyal to the Union should be stopped. President Lincoln says that the professions of loyalty of the state authorities cannot be relied upon.
Brigadier General Irvin McDowell assumes command of the Department of Northeastern Virginia, which includes Federal troops in and around Alexandria.
USS Union sets up a blockade of the Confederate port of Savannah, Georgia.
In the British House of Commons debate opens on relations with both the United and Confederate States.
President Jefferson Davis arrives in the newly designated Confederate capital of Richmond, Virginia. A large assemblage led by Governor John Letcher and military and civil dignitaries greet him. The President has been ill on his trip from Montgomery, but has responded to the frequent stops when crowds called for "Jeff Davis." "The old Hero!" The trip has been one continuous ovation.
In Washington the organization of nurses for the Army is well under way. Secretary of War Cameron has accepted the aid of Miss Dorothea Dix in establishing hospitals and caring for sick and wounded.
For three days a trio of Federal vessels has bombarded enemy batteries at Aquia Creek, Virginia.
Federal troops under Colonel B.F. Kelley occupy Grafton, western Virginia, after a successful march across the Ohio in order to guard the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and help protect pro-Union citizens in the western counties of Virginia.
Appointments of officers and recruitment of troops continue both North and South and receive most of the martial attention.
Secretary of War Simon Cameron informs General Butler at Fort Monroe that he should retain such fugitive slaves as come within his lines, employ them, and keep records of their services. The question of what to do about slaves within Federal lines has been raised by Butler and caused a great deal of correspondence and debate in Federal government circles, with Lincoln himself pondering the proper policy. Now the decision is that refugees should be cared for and given work in Federal military installations.
At Norfolk, Virginia, the Confederates raise USS Merrimack, which had been burned when the Federals evacuated the navy yard.
The Federal Potomac Flotilla of three vessels shells the Confederate batteries at Aquia Creek, Virginia, as part of the continuing small war going on along the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay.
The Confederates name Pierre Gustave Toutant Beauregard to command the Alexandria Line, which means all the Southern troops in northern Virginia. He previously had commanded at Charleston.
In a major Federal shift Brigadier General Nathaniel Lyon supersedes William S. Harney in command of the Department of the West. Francis P. Blair and Lyon have finally exercised their authority, given them in mid-May, to relieve Harney when Blair thought necessary. The Harney-Price agreement to allow state authorities control, and the general's attempt to resolve things peaceably, has aroused great controversy. Harney feels the complaints of Union citizens in Missouri are exaggerated, while Blair and Lyon are violently opposed to his pact with Price.
Federal troops arrive at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, from the Indian Territory after abandoning posts there. The course they have followed will become known as the Chisholm Trail, named for Jesse Chisholm, one of their guides.

June 1, Saturday
Minor skirmishes occur in northern Virginia at Arlington Mills and Fairfax Court House. Federal cavalry move out to Fairfax, enter, and then pull out. The insignificant affair attracts more attention than it deserves because serious fighting has not yet begun. Captain John Q. Marr of the Confederacy is killed, one of the first Confederate battle deaths.
Federal naval vessels continue to bombard enemy batteries in the Aquia Creek area of Virginia.
At Cairo, Illinois, junction of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, the first thirty-two pound ball is fired down the Mississippi as the big guns are planted in position.
In Richmond President Davis is serenaded and gives a patriotic address to the crowd, saying, "Upon us is devolved the high and holy responsibility of preserving the constitutional liberty of a free government." He claims the North is "stripped of the liberty to which they were born" by "an ignorant usurper."
Great Britain proclaims a policy of preventing belligerents from carrying prizes into any British ports or territorial waters. It will be followed by other nations.
June 2, Sunday
P.G.T. Beauregard takes command of the Confederate forces in northern Virginia on the Alexandria Line. He succeeds Milledge L. Bonham. The force is known variously as the Department of Alexandria, the Potomac Department, and the Army of the Potomac.
Federal forces move out from Grafton, western Virginia, this night, heading southward in a heavy rain.
June 3, Monday
The "Little Giant" Stephen A. Douglas is dead. In Chicago the forty-eight-year-old senator from Illinois and former presidential candidate succumbs in the Tremont House of possible typhoid fever, following physical exhaustion. Personal financial difficulties, long campaigning, the war he sought to avoid, the rallying of strong support for the Union, and illness has finally downed one of the nation's prominent leaders. His last message to his two sons says, "Tell them to obey the laws and support the Constitution of the United States." In Washington President Lincoln denies himself to visitors in sorrow for the man who had beaten him for the US Senate, and whom, in turn, he had beaten for the presidency. A Democrat, Douglas had long been the Northern leader of his party, the developer of popular sovereignty, and an advocate of western expansion. But Douglas had been all Union, as proved by the 1860 split in the Democratic party when he headed the ticket of the Northern wing against the South. Many disliked him politically but no one could deny his essential dedication to the country. The Union has lost one of its strongest supporters and noblest soldiers with the death of the short, volatile, aggressive little man with the valiant spirit.
There are two main lines of attack through the mountains of western Virginia, and eventually the Federals utilize them both—one from Grafton, Philippi, and Beverly and the other from the Ohio River up the Great Kanawha Valley to Charleston. Brigadier General T.A. Morris of McClellan's command advances from Grafton in two columns. Through the pitchy darkness and drenching rain over torturous mountain roads the Federals file. About daylight they strike at Philippi, completely surprising the sleeping Confederates. Colonel G.A. Porterfield's command makes no defense whatsoever, most of them fleeing, with the Federals in rapid pursuit. What few pickets there are fail. A joint report will call the Confederate rout "disgraceful." A minor action, blown up in the press until it will become known as the "Philippi Races," this skirmish will have some influence on the breaking away of western Virginia from the Confederacy.
June 4, Tuesday
Southern papers suggest that slaves be employed on Confederate fortifications in place of volunteer troops.
June 5, Wednesday
The Federal steamer Harriet Lane throws a few shells at the Pig Point batteries on the James River, Virginia, typical of the current secondary actions.
At Manassas General Beauregard issues a proclamation to the people of northern Virginia, saying, "A reckless and unprincipled tyrant has invaded your soil. Abraham Lincoln, regardless of all moral, legal, and constitutional restraints, has thrown his abolition hosts among you, who are murdering and imprisoning your citizens, confiscating and destroying your property, and committing other acts of violence and outrage too shocking and revolting to humanity to be enumerated." He adds that the Federal "war cry is 'Beauty and booty'," and calls for citizens to rally to their state and country.
In Baltimore US marshals take possession of the gun factory of Merrill & Thomas. Federal authorities also seize powder from the Hazard Powder Co., Lower Canton, Connecticut, and from the Du Pont powder works in Delaware.
June 6, Thursday
Confederate Brigadier General Henry A. Wise, former governor of Virginia, is ordered to take command of troops in the Kanawha Valley of western Virginia.
The Federal Cabinet decides that war expenses should be paid by the national government, except those of the states for mobilization prior to swearing in of the men.
June 7, Friday
Confederate troops carry out a minor reconnaissance from Yorktown to Newport News, Virginia.
Federals blockade Apalachicola, Florida.
During the funeral of Senator Douglas, President Lincoln receives no visitors. Government departments and many public schools in the North are closed, honoring the late senator from Illinois. The White House is draped in black.
Tennessee voters approve secession by a large majority: 104,913 for and 47,238 against. The eastern part of the state votes against secession two to one, but the rest are strongly pro-Confederate. The vote approves the previous action of the legislature, although Tennessee already is active in the Confederacy.
Brigadier General Robert S. Garnett is assigned to command Confederate troops in northwestern Virginia in an effort to stiffen defense after the failure of Porterfield at Philippi.
Governor John Letcher of Virginia officially transfers the forces of Virginia to the Confederate States. This puts General Robert E. Lee temporarily out of a regular job, as he had commanded the Virginia troops, but he still acts as advisor to President Davis.
President Lincoln and Secretary of War Cameron approve the setting up of the United States Sanitary Commission, which is to do so much to see to the health and comfort of the Federal soldiers.
In the evening Federal troops move out of Newport News and Fort Monroe against Confederate positions at Big Bethel Church, Virginia. The night march for green troops runs into considerable trouble with Federals firing into their comrades by mistake.
Absolutely correct. And, as I said before, you s[…]

My biggest accomplishment was probably when i was fourteen, i had to do a short sermon in front of my church. I was shaking and studied my lesson for two weeks ahead of time. After i was done i had at least ten little old ladies hug me in tears telling me how proud of me they were.
My mom's boss and his wife, I call them my grandparents to other people. But I've never met such good hearted, loving people in my life. They see potential in me that others never have. So they are constantly pushing to me to strive to be the best. When it comes to softball, Trey Miller has been a HUGE impact. He was taught me for years now, and i have to say just about everything i know i have learned from him. He legitimately cares and that makes me not only want to succeed for myself, but for him too.
What goals did you wish to accomplish with your team this season?
This season I want my team to play every game with heart. I love to win, but it isn't about postseason as much as it is being able to play the game I love with the girls I love.
My greatest inspiration is my big brother when it comes to sports. He was a star football player and loved the game beyond words. You could always see how much passion he had through his performance. That's what i want people to see whenever they watch me play.
I would say the toughest thing to overcome was myself. I have extremely high standards and a whole lot of heart. Sometimes it seems like too much. When I push myself to overcome my flaws i can accomplish just about anything.
What would you tell a younger athlete that looks up to you?
I would tell them to practice, you're never too cool to put work in. I'd also tell them to take their time, it seriously flies by. Don't wish away time and not appreciate every play you make or every hit you get. It doesn't matter how good you are, one day you'll make your last.
My game day ritual usually includes eating breakfast (which i never do), I set my uniform out with my socks that i haven't washed since sophomore year when we won conference, I pray at least three times that day, I eat a bag of flamin' hot cheetos, and then i get ready for game time.
When it comes to softball something I always love to refer to is "Your only limit is you". I really like this because as long as you push yourself you can be or do whatever you want. No one holds you back but yourself.

We spent the morning setting up plastic to protect the wood, ate great food, it was so good!
Today we became famous on TV 2, they came with a film crew, wahoo!
It rained and rained, but we kept our smiles, as we dreamt about taking a plane to spain.
But we continued to oil and sand, and constructed the roof, it became so grand!
With loads of screws and gigantic drills, we worked as a team and learnt new skills!
So today we had a great time, we hope you like our blog, and also our rhyme.

Parent's Guide: FIFA 17 - Age rating, mature content and difficulty
PS4, PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC
9th January, 2017By Sarah Hadley
Violence and Gore: None
Bad Language: None

What is FIFA 17?
FIFA 17 is an officially-licensed football game which sets out to recreate the passion, emotion and excitement of the beautiful game on your console or PC. With over 30 leagues and 650 teams to choose from, stretching from the Premier League all the way down to EFL League Two, there's a wide range of clubs, players and modes to get to grips with. Whether you're up for a few quick games with your friends in local multiplayer, a dabble in this year's incarnation of footballing-meets-collectible-cards Ultimate Team mode, or you simply fancy getting stuck into the ever popular online matches, there's plenty of footballing fun to be had.
Players on Xbox One, Playstation 4 and PC will also have access to a brand new story mode called 'The Journey'. Putting you into the shoes of young hopeful Alex Hunter, you'll set about trying to make your mark in the Premier League, playing for a club of your choice, as you follow your professional footballing dream. Unfortunately, this mode is not available for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 players.
How do you play FIFA 17?
FIFA 17 comes with a wide range of footballing modes to get stuck into, from bite-sized matches to more complex career modes. Kick Off lets you jump straight into a quick game between two teams of your choosing, perfect for an instant fix. Career mode is much more in depth, and lets you take control of all aspects of running an existing club, from taking part in their matches, to managing their finances and team between games, giving it a lite football manager-esque feel. Meanwhile, Ultimate Team also returns, letting you create your own footballing dream team from packs of collectible cards, competing in tournaments to raise your rank and become the best in the world. For multiplayer fun, up to four players can play either together on the same team, or against each other in local multiplayer, while online, you can play up to 11 v 11 games, where every player is controlled by a human.
Playstation 4, Xbox One and PC players also have the aforementioned The Journey mode to play through, which offers a much more story-driven experience. Following the protagonist Alex Hunter, an up and coming player, you'll train and play as you rise through the footballing ranks, interspersed with cutscenes and dialogue options during interviews, chats with the team's manager and the like.
How easy is FIFA 17 to pick up and play?
In general, FIFA 17 is fairly easy to pick up and play, assuming you know the general gist of football. With six different difficulty levels on offer, as well as a number of assists you can turn on that affect how hard (or easy) it is to shoot, cross and perform other key footballing moves, FIFA 17 lets you tailor things to your own skill level. Those looking for an easier, more arcade ride can also opt to play in two button mode, which condenses FIFA's surprisingly in depth controls onto just two buttons - essentially, one for pass and one for shoot. Standard controls include a number of fancier footwork moves, using a variety of buttons, as well as different types of shot (lob, volley, through ball etc), which may be a little complex for the younger footie fan. Should you feel the need to brush up on your footwork, though, skill games give you a fun way to perfect your moves, offering a variety of activities that help improve your passing, shooting and such.
Generally speaking, there's little to no reading required in FIFA 17, as it's all fairly self-explanatory. For Playstation 4, Xbox One and PC players however, The Journey story mode does have the odd unvoiced/subtitled section, either during cutscene interviews with foreign players, or in the conversation options you can pick at certain points during the story. With that in mind, a reading ability is required.
"Yes, well... We always want to win. It's a long season. We have a big team and there's still much left."
"Maybe you'll learn something."
"The Gaffer's guidance."
For those wanting to play online on consoles, a subscription to that console's online service is generally required, with the exception of the Playstation 3. Playstation 4 players will need a Playstation Plus subscription, while Xbox 360 and Xbox One folks will need Xbox Live Gold.
As a football game, there's no mature content in FIFA 17 whatsoever - no bad language, violence, gore or sex scenes to speak of in the slightest.

And it came about when Samuel was old that he appointed his sons judges over Israel. Now the name of his firstborn was Joel, and the name of his second, Abijah; they were judging in Beersheba. His sons, however, did not walk in his ways, but turned aside after dishonest gain and took bribes and perverted justice.read more.
Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah; and they said to him, "Behold, you have grown old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint a king for us to judge us like all the nations." But the thing was displeasing in the sight of Samuel when they said, "Give us a king to judge us " And Samuel prayed to the LORD. The LORD said to Samuel, "Listen to the voice of the people in regard to all that they say to you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me from being king over them. "Like all the deeds which they have done since the day that I brought them up from Egypt even to this day--in that they have forsaken Me and served other gods--so they are doing to you also. "Now then, listen to their voice; however, you shall solemnly warn them and tell them of the procedure of the king who will reign over them." So Samuel spoke all the words of the LORD to the people who had asked of him a king. He said, "This will be the procedure of the king who will reign over you: he will take your sons and place them for himself in his chariots and among his horsemen and they will run before his chariots. "He will appoint for himself commanders of thousands and of fifties, and some to do his plowing and to reap his harvest and to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. "He will also take your daughters for perfumers and cooks and bakers. "He will take the best of your fields and your vineyards and your olive groves and give them to his servants. "He will take a tenth of your seed and of your vineyards and give to his officers and to his servants. "He will also take your male servants and your female servants and your best young men and your donkeys and use them for his work. "He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his servants. "Then you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the LORD will not answer you in that day." Nevertheless, the people refused to listen to the voice of Samuel, and they said, "No, but there shall be a king over us, that we also may be like all the nations, that our king may judge us and go out before us and fight our battles." Now after Samuel had heard all the words of the people, he repeated them in the LORD'S hearing.
Then King David said, "Call Bathsheba to me." And she came into the king's presence and stood before the king. The king vowed and said, "As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my life from all distress, surely as I vowed to you by the LORD the God of Israel, saying, 'Your son Solomon shall be king after me, and he shall sit on my throne in my place'; I will indeed do so this day."read more.
Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the ground, and prostrated herself before the king and said, "May my lord King David live forever." Then King David said, "Call to me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada." And they came into the king's presence. The king said to them, "Take with you the servants of your lord, and have my son Solomon ride on my own mule, and bring him down to Gihon. "Let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there as king over Israel, and blow the trumpet and say, 'Long live King Solomon!' "Then you shall come up after him, and he shall come and sit on my throne and be king in my place; for I have appointed him to be ruler over Israel and Judah." Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king and said, "Amen! Thus may the LORD, the God of my lord the king, say. "As the LORD has been with my lord the king, so may He be with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord King David!" So Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the Cherethites, and the Pelethites went down and had Solomon ride on King David's mule, and brought him to Gihon. Zadok the priest then took the horn of oil from the tent and anointed Solomon Then they blew the trumpet, and all the people said, "Long live King Solomon!" All the people went up after him, and the people were playing on flutes and rejoicing with great joy, so that the earth shook at their noise.
"If a slain person is found lying in the open country in the land which the LORD your God gives you to possess, and it is not known who has struck him, then your elders and your judges shall go out and measure the distance to the cities which are around the slain one.
Now Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there, and behold, the close relative of whom Boaz spoke was passing by, so he said, "Turn aside, friend, sit down here." And he turned aside and sat down. He took ten men of the elders of the city and said, "Sit down here." So they sat down.
"When I went out to the gate of the city, When I took my seat in the square, The young men saw me and hid themselves, And the old men arose and stood. "The princes stopped talking And put their hands on their mouths;read more.
The voice of the nobles was hushed, And their tongue stuck to their palate. "For when the ear heard, it called me blessed, And when the eye saw, it gave witness of me, Because I delivered the poor who cried for help, And the orphan who had no helper.
Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah, broke the pillars in pieces, cut down the Asherim and pulled down the high places and the altars throughout all Judah and Benjamin, as well as in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the sons of Israel returned to their cities, each to his possession.
Now these are those whom David appointed over the service of song in the house of the LORD, after the ark rested there.
But the thing was displeasing in the sight of Samuel when they said, "Give us a king to judge us " And Samuel prayed to the LORD. The LORD said to Samuel, "Listen to the voice of the people in regard to all that they say to you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me from being king over them. "Like all the deeds which they have done since the day that I brought them up from Egypt even to this day--in that they have forsaken Me and served other gods--so they are doing to you also.
and they said to him, "Behold, you have grown old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint a king for us to judge us like all the nations."
He also chose David His servant And took him from the sheepfolds; From the care of the ewes with suckling lambs He brought him To shepherd Jacob His people, And Israel His inheritance. So he shepherded them according to the integrity of his heart, And guided them with his skillful hands.
"Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel Prophesy and say to those shepherds, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Woe, shepherds of Israel who have been feeding themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flock? "You eat the fat and clothe yourselves with the wool, you slaughter the fat sheep without feeding the flock. "Those who are sickly you have not strengthened, the diseased you have not healed, the broken you have not bound up, the scattered you have not brought back, nor have you sought for the lost; but with force and with severity you have dominated them.read more.
"They were scattered for lack of a shepherd, and they became food for every beast of the field and were scattered. "My flock wandered through all the mountains and on every high hill; My flock was scattered over all the surface of the earth, and there was no one to search or seek for them."'"
"Now it shall come about when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, he shall write for himself a copy of this law on a scroll in the presence of the Levitical priests. "It shall be with him and he shall read it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, by carefully observing all the words of this law and these statutes, that his heart may not be lifted up above his countrymen and that he may not turn aside from the commandment, to the right or the left, so that he and his sons may continue long in his kingdom in the midst of Israel.
"By me kings reign, And rulers decree justice. "By me princes rule, and nobles, All who judge rightly.
"Moreover, he shall not multiply horses for himself, nor shall he cause the people to return to Egypt to multiply horses, since the LORD has said to you, 'You shall never again return that way.' "He shall not multiply wives for himself, or else his heart will turn away; nor shall he greatly increase silver and gold for himself.
He said, "This will be the procedure of the king who will reign over you: he will take your sons and place them for himself in his chariots and among his horsemen and they will run before his chariots. "He will appoint for himself commanders of thousands and of fifties, and some to do his plowing and to reap his harvest and to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. "He will also take your daughters for perfumers and cooks and bakers.read more.
"He will take the best of your fields and your vineyards and your olive groves and give them to his servants. "He will take a tenth of your seed and of your vineyards and give to his officers and to his servants. "He will also take your male servants and your female servants and your best young men and your donkeys and use them for his work. "He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his servants.
Now he waited seven days, according to the appointed time set by Samuel, but Samuel did not come to Gilgal; and the people were scattering from him. So Saul said, "Bring to me the burnt offering and the peace offerings." And he offered the burnt offering. As soon as he finished offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him and to greet him.read more.
But Samuel said, "What have you done?" And Saul said, "Because I saw that the people were scattering from me, and that you did not come within the appointed days, and that the Philistines were assembling at Michmash, therefore I said, 'Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal, and I have not asked the favor of the LORD.' So I forced myself and offered the burnt offering." Samuel said to Saul, "You have acted foolishly; you have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which He commanded you, for now the LORD would have established your kingdom over Israel forever.
But when he became strong, his heart was so proud that he acted corruptly, and he was unfaithful to the LORD his God, for he entered the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar of incense. Then Azariah the priest entered after him and with him eighty priests of the LORD, valiant men. They opposed Uzziah the king and said to him, "It is not for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests, the sons of Aaron who are consecrated to burn incense. Get out of the sanctuary, for you have been unfaithful and will have no honor from the LORD God."
Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the detestable idol of Moab, on the mountain which is east of Jerusalem, and for Molech the detestable idol of the sons of Ammon. Thus also he did for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Hephzibah. He did evil in the sight of the LORD, according to the abominations of the nations whom the LORD dispossessed before the sons of Israel. For he rebuilt the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he erected altars for Baal and made an Asherah, as Ahab king of Israel had done, and worshiped all the host of heaven and served them.read more.
He built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, "In Jerusalem I will put My name." For he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD. He made his son pass through the fire, practiced witchcraft and used divination, and dealt with mediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the sight of the LORD provoking Him to anger.
At that time Berodach-baladan a son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
"Woe to the rebellious children," declares the LORD, "Who execute a plan, but not Mine, And make an alliance, but not of My Spirit, In order to add sin to sin; Who proceed down to Egypt Without consulting Me, To take refuge in the safety of Pharaoh And to seek shelter in the shadow of Egypt!
In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel saw a dream and visions in his mind as he lay on his bed; then he wrote the dream down and related the following summary of it. Daniel said, "I was looking in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of heaven were stirring up the great sea. "And four great beasts were coming up from the sea, different from one another.read more.
"The first was like a lion and had the wings of an eagle. I kept looking until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man; a human mind also was given to it. "And behold, another beast, a second one, resembling a bear. And it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth; and thus they said to it, 'Arise, devour much meat!' "After this I kept looking, and behold, another one, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird; the beast also had four heads, and dominion was given to it. "After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrifying and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth It devoured and crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns.
Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every human institution, whether to a king as the one in authority, or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do right. For such is the will of God that by doing right you may silence the ignorance of foolish men.read more.
Act as free men, and do not use your freedom as a covering for evil, but use it as bondslaves of God. Honor all people, love the brotherhood, fear God, honor the king.
Then they answered and spoke before the king, "Daniel, who is one of the exiles from Judah, pays no attention to you, O king, or to the injunction which you signed, but keeps making his petition three times a day."
