One of the most influential and innovative guitarists of the past quarter century, Preston Reed invented integrated percussive guitar playing in the late 1980's, revolutionising the way the acoustic guitar is played and inspiring generations of musicians around the world ever since. Employing multi-voiced grooves, polyrhythmic percussion and story-telling compositions, Reed's visionary approach fully exploits the breathtaking orchestral potential of the acoustic guitar.
Since 1979 Preston has released fifteen critically-acclaimed albums and performed on six continents. His long teaching experience includes The Swannanoa Gathering, where he taught Kaki King, his own week-long workshops in Scotland, attended by many over the years including Ed Sheeran, and his recent masterclass at Berklee College of Music. His 1994 instructional video, The Guitar Of Preston Reed: Expanding The Realm Of Acoustic Playing continues to set today's and tomorrow's top players on the path to developing their own musical voices on the instrument.
Hugh's Room Live is elated to host this true master once again for what will surely be another jaw-dropping performance.

Alfie Zappacosta
Saturday, February 15, 2020 | 8:30pm
Advance $50.00 / Door $55.00
Alfie Zappacosta is undeniably one of Canada's premier songwriters and performers with chart topping hits and a recording and acting career that has spanned 40 years. He continues to evolve as an artist by "doing it his way", an effort that has been rewarded with an impressive song catalogue and a discerning loyal fan base.
Alfie Zappacosta decided on a music career in his teens and set his sights upon being a guitarist. When his vocal dexterity and song writing proficiency were uncovered by a publisher while writing for his first original band "Surrender", events would be put in motion to champion Zappacosta (dropping his first name) as a solo artist and bring him to the world's attention. "Start Again", "Passion", "When I Fall in Love Again" and "Nothing Can Stand In Your Way" became staples on Canadian adult contemporary radio and Zappacosta became a personified Rock Star.
In 1987, Walt Disney's Danger Bay would bring Zappacosta an episode written specifically for him titled "Rock Star". In the same year, he penned and sang "Overload" exclusively for the multi-platinum soundtrack "Dirty Dancing" and Loverboy would record Zappacosta's "That's Where The Money Goes" for their Wildside album. In 1988, he was awarded JUNOs for "Album of The Year' and "Most Promising Artist", an American Music Award for "Most Popular Album of The Year" and named the Canadian Publishers Music Association's "Best Rock Star".
Zappacosta's distinctive baritone voice did not go unnoticed by artistic directors and in 1990, he was called to deliver his greatest challenge of his career – singing Andrew Lloyd Webber. Alfie's portrayals of Christ in Jesus Christ Superstar and Che Guevara in Evita would bring a new audience and support his efforts to delineate his pop/rock image – a moniker that never reflected his authentic personality. The release of "Innocence Ballet" in 1996 would introduce Alfie Zappacosta (taking back his first name) and give center stage to his true rich vocals, his mastery at romance, his astute take on relationships and his advanced knowledge of music. Alfie is rewarded for his efforts with numerous award nominations in the Smooth Jazz genre and a performance with the Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra in 2005.
Zappacosta has polished his live concert performances exposing his sophisticated, intimate and intense personality. His performances deliver a blend of acoustic, jazz and pop music prompting the listener to engage soulfully.
And the hits that originally brought Zappacosta to the world's attention? – Alfie hasn't turned his back on any of these songs. You will hear them in his program performed the way they were originally written and meant to be heard.

J.P. Cormier
Sunday, February 9, 2020 | 8:30PM
Advance $25 / Door $30
Nobody really knows who J.P. Cormier is for sure. That's to be expected, believe me.
In 1974 he was a five year old boy, discovering an innate talent for playing the guitar, I had a little hand in that, guiding him through the beginning stages. He learned faster than I could teach. By the mid eighties, not out of his teens, he was a sideman for bands and artists of many different genres in Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, and all across the deep south. As he travelled and worked he added more and more instruments to his arsenal of capabilities. He became indispensable to the bands he worked for.
In the early Nineties, he became a sideman for one of Canada's favourite sons, Stompin' Tom Connors and also became a staple of the recordings at Studio H in Halifax. His work with the CBC there, spanned musical, production and arranging duties.
All this before he was 20.
In the mid nineties he reentered the musical scene of his beloved East Coast and the Island called Cape Breton. He exploded onto the trad music scene there as a fiddler, performing some of the most difficult music ever produced by legends like Winston Fitzgerald and Angus Chisholm with a facility that stunned onlookers. Especially those who knew he wasn't born there, but born in Ontario to Cape Breton parents. Somehow, some way, his music was the real thing, sounding like he had been steeped continually in a handed-down brew of family tradition from the old country.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
His previous gig was in Nashville playing mandolin and banjo in a grammy nominated bluegrass gospel band and performing on the Opry, and playing television shows with the likes of Waylon Jennings. All those people also thought he was one of them, American, reared in the ways of bluegrass, old time and Americana music. They knew he was from Canada, but it just didn't seem possible.
Then in 1997, something amazing happened.
An album released in Canada, out of nowhere, called Another Morning. This time it was him as a songwriter and a lead singer.
And what a songwriter he turned out to be. Some of the performances on that album are literally part of the musical vocabulary today in the East Coast. Songs like the title cut, and Kelly's Mountain, The Molly May (co written with his cousin Gervais) and others. It inspired, 25 years ago, some of the biggest names in the business today. People like Dave Gunning, Matt Andersen, David Myles, Joel Plaskett, all of which will tell you: that record changed things.
The Canadian industry thought so too, and it received a juno nomination and won an ECMA.
And that was just the beginning.
36 years later after stepping on stage as professional union musician for the first time at the tender age of 13, JP is still going, and frighteningly, still getting better.
16 albums followed the success of Another Morning, winning 12 more ECMA's, another Juno nomination, a Canadian Folk Music Award and 5 Music Nova Scotia Awards. Each album was a snapshot of each thing that he can do. There are fiddle albums, Mandolin, Banjo, Guitar, tribute records, songwriting collections, a purely astounding spectrum of talent and musical vision.
His catalogue of recordings and the 150 or so records he's produced on other artists, resemble the tapestry he weaves in live performance. Where he used to carry 3 and 4 piece bands, he tours alone now.
Just him and the instruments.
People still leave his shows confused, amazed and wondering what they just saw. Did they see a storyteller? A Songwriter? Arguably one of the best guitar players in the business today? Someone who crosses the lines between different instruments like there are no lines? Who was that masked man, anyway?
Accolades aside, and there are many from people like Chet Atkins, Marty Stuart, Waylon Jennings, Gordon Lightfoot; JP sees himself as just a performer. He's shy, but has a razor sharp wit and lightning sense of humour. He can be reserved or edgy to the point OF no return. He speaks for soldiers, first responders, other artists, the forgotten and lost. He speaks sometimes only for himself and refuses rebuttal.
Of all the things he is, foremost he is an entertainer. I think one of the best. After you've seen what he does, I'm certain you will too.

Obviously, we are in the capable hands of a master. Absolutely fluid touch and beautiful integration between moving lines and harmonic cadences. The sound of the instrument is well balanced throughout the entire register. The relaxed quality of everything that's being played gives it such a warm feeling. To play that stuff is extremely hard. This is an absolute master, the best of the best." – Kurt Rosenwinkel, responding to Russell Malone's solo performance of "Remind Me"
Russell Malone is one of the signature guitar players of his generation. The leader of ten albums since 1992, Malone is as well-known on the international circuit for helming a world-class quartet and trio as he is for his long-standing participation in Ron Carter's Golden Striker Trio, and his recent consequential contribution to the musical production of the likes of Sonny Rollins, Diana Krall and Dianne Reeves, who recruited Malone for his singular tone, refined listening skills, limitless chops, and efflorescent imagination.
In all these circumstances, Malone addresses the tradition on its own terms, refracting the vocabularies and syntax of such heroes as Charlie Christian, Chet Atkins, George Van Eps, Johnny Smith, Wes Montgomery, Grant Green, Kenny Burrell, Pat Martino, and George Benson into an argot entirely his own. A master of all tempos, a relentless swinger, he spins his stories — in idioms ranging from the urban and downhome blues, country, gospel, various corners of the American Songbook, and hardcore jazz—with a soulful, instantly recognizable instrumental voice, and seasons them with sophisticated harmonies that are never "too hip for the room."
"I take pride in being open enough to play with anybody," says Malone, citing encounters with such diverse artists as B.B. King, Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Andy Williams, James "Blood" Ulmer, and Ornette Coleman. "I love to swing, but I don't look down my nose at other styles of music, or other musicians. I'll play with anybody, if the music is good."
Born in 1963 in Albany, Georgia, where he was raised, Malone received his first guitar a green plastic four-string—at 4. He began playing in church at 6, and discovered jazz at 12, when he heard Benson perform on a PBS special with Benny Goodman, Teddy Wilson, Red Norvo, Milt Hinton, and Jo Jones. In short order, he purchased Benson's Cookbook and Benson Burner, and Montgomery's Smokin' at the Half Note and Boss Guitar. "Those four records set me on a path that I have not deviated from," Malone says.
After high school, Malone left Albany for an extended engagement in Houston with organist Al Rylander, who had employed the talented youngster for almost a year in a local club. In 1985, he moved to Atlanta, where he built a reputation sidemanning with, among others, saxophonist-blues singer Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson, Little Anthony, Peabo Bryson, O.C. Smith and Freddy Cole, and leading units at Walter Mitty's, a local club where touring musicians jammed after gigs. Two of them, Branford Marsalis and the legendary pianist John Hicks, encouraged Malone to come to New York City. He first visited the Apple in 1985, and began to network with generational peers, sitting in on various bandstands, jamming late nights at the Blue Note, and attending Barry Harris' Jazz Cultural Theater.
From 1988 to 1990, Malone worked with Hammond B-3 icon Jimmy Smith, who "told me that he didn't want me to play like my idols, gave me permission to speak with my own voice." He garnered more visibility during a 1990-94 tenure with Harry Connick, who made it his practice to feature Malone's singing and guitar playing at the start of his shows. In 1992, he signed with Connick's label, Columbia, which released Russell Malone and Black Butterfly, on which Malone addressed the mix of genres-old-school and contemporary pop, original jazz, spirituals, and, of course, the blues—that continue to characterize his mature tonal personality.
During a 1994-98 stint with Diana Krall, he performed on three of Krall's CDs, appeared in the Robert Altman film Kansas City, participated in Roy Hargrove's Latin Grammy-winning Crisol band, and recorded Wholly Cats (Larry Willis, piano; Rodney Whitaker, bass; Yoron Israel, drums) for Japan's Venus label. In 1998 he led the first of three recordings for Verve, including a personal favorite, Heartstrings, on which string arrangements by Johnny Mandel, Dori Caymmi, and Alan Broadbent and an all-star rhythm section—pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Christian McBride, and drummer Jeff Watts—enfold a succession of blue flame guitar solos.
Malone made five recordings with pianist Benny Green—three of them trios with McBride between 1997 and 2004. All the aforementioned were close to bass legend Ray Brown, who first recorded with Malone in 2000 on Some of My Best Friends Are… Guitarists, and employed him in a crackling trio with Monty Alexander until his death in 2002, a few weeks after they made Brown's final, eponymously titled recording. In 2003, Brown's heir to the bass throne, Ron Carter, who had known Malone since both performed in Kansas City, recruited him for The Golden Striker, a bass-guitar-piano date with the late pianist Mulgrew Miller. Malone continues to play on Carter's projects, and recently has spent consequential time in Dianne Reeves' two-guitar unit with Romero Lubambo.
In 2004, Malone launched a still-ongoing relationship with MaxJazz with Playground, followed by Live at the Jazz Standard, Volumes 1 and 2, and the 2010 trio recital, Triple Play, with bassist David Wong and drummer Montez Coleman. Reviewing the latter, jazz journalist Doug Ramsey noted Malone's "warmth, conversational phrasing and lack of hurry," adding that, "in the absence of another chording instrument to collaborate or contend with, Malone is free to make harmonic choices without concern for clash or collision."
"There was a period where I wanted validation, felt I needed to do certain things in order to get people's approval," Malone says. "I lacked the confidence to speak with the voice that was in me. But at some point, you have to accept who you are. No one will ever out-do me at being Russell Malone." Malone's latest recording is "All About Melody" on High Note Records.

Inner Beauty Effects, or I.BE, was born from the need for durable, handcrafted bags that are as strong, hardworking, and beautiful as the women who carry them. Our pouches and tote and crossbody bags are made from high-quality, timeless materials, like waxed canvas exteriors, live-edge Horween leather straps, and antique brass hardware. Each bag's interior is made from canvas linen with a pop of color or playful personality, to reflect our philosophy that true beauty lies within.
We care about the health of our planet, so we source materials locally, from eco-minded manufacturers. Our bags are crafted in America by a community of independent female artists, in limited, thoughtful collections that are classically elegant and minimalist, with an extra dash of fun. We've named each bag for women we admire—women who are fiercely committed to living a joyous life on their own terms, no matter their age, size, or background.
I.BE bags are inspired by you and designed with you in mind, to be functional, comfortable, and versatile—not just another accessory in your closet, but a customizable, go-anywhere, do-anything sidekick for work, play, and beyond. Our bags will stand up to your everyday activities and your most exciting adventures—and stand the test of time.
I.BE bags are our love letters to women like you, who are inspired by possibility in the world around us. We can't wait to see where you go next
Kate Perna founded I.BE in her home studio (aka, dining room table). She set out to create something spectacular . . . and quickly found that her sewing skills, which included some really awesome straight lines, lent themselves beautifully to tote bags.
Kate found herself equally drawn to simple utility fabrics and vibrant, colorful prints. At first, the two seemed like a less-than-natural pairing. But when she began assembling the bags, she put together a khaki exterior with a watercolor-flower interior, or a neutral denim hue with a tile-print lining. Her husband was surprised. What was behind her unusual design choice? "My bags have inner beauty,"
Kate replied.
Without realizing it, Kate had crafted a product that reflected her own philosophy: that what's on the inside matters, and extraordinary beauty lives inside each person. She now works with talented independent female designers to create a full range of functional, versatile bags that can go wherever life takes you, and bring joy every time you use them.
Our bags represent the women we admire: they're tough, smart, hardworking, and beautiful inside and out. All of our materials are sourced from independent surface designers and small businesses, because we believe that by working together, we all do better—
for our businesses and the world.
We're proud to support women and the causes that benefit them. This year, we're donating a portion of the profits from our She Moves Mountains Collection to Live Your Dream, an international online community of nearly 100,000 volunteers and activists. The women who serve Live Your Dream are working every day to address some of the most serious challenges facing women and girls, such as gender-based violence, poverty, and lack of access to quality education.
We believe that all women should have a voice. That's why we created the I.BE Lab, a supportive, positive-minded community where women can share their unique experiences. Through shared narrative and creative workshops, we give women the opportunity to redefine beauty and power based on the qualities that feel most authentic and meaningful to them.

La schiavitù contemporanea, a volte nota anche come schiavitù moderna o neo-schiavitù, si riferisce alla schiavitù istituzionale che continua a verificarsi nella società odierna. Le stime del numero di persone schiavizzate oggi vanno da circa 38 milioni a 46 milioni, a seconda del metodo utilizzato per formare la stima e della definizione di schiavitù utilizzata.

Il numero stimato di persone ridotte in schiavitù è dibattuto, poiché non esiste una definizione universalmente accettata di schiavitù moderna; le persone in schiavitù sono spesso difficili da identificare e spesso non sono disponibili statistiche adeguate. L'Organizzazione internazionale del lavoro stima che, secondo le sue definizioni, oltre 40 milioni di persone siano oggi in qualche forma di schiavitù. 24,9 milioni di persone sono impegnate nel lavoro forzato, di cui 16 milioni sono sfruttate nel settore privato come il lavoro domestico, l'edilizia o l'agricoltura; 4,8 milioni di persone sottoposte a sfruttamento sessuale forzato e 4 milioni di persone sottoposte a lavori forzati imposti dalle autorità statali. Altri 15,4 milioni di persone hanno matrimoni forzati.

Southwest Research Institute Led Team Calculates the Radiation Exposure with a trip to Mars
Press Release - Source: Southwest Research Institute
Posted May 30, 2013 1:31 PM
©SwRI
SwRI Team Calculates the Radiation Exposure with a trip to Mars.
On November 26, 2011, the Mars Science Laboratory began a 253-day, 560-million-kilometer journey to deliver the Curiosity rover to the Red Planet. En route, the Southwest Research Institute-led Radiation Assessment Detector (RAD) made detailed measurements of the energetic particle radiation environment inside the spacecraft, providing important insights for future human missions to Mars.
"In terms of accumulated dose, it's like getting a whole-body CT scan once every five or six days," said Dr. Cary Zeitlin, a principal scientist in SwRI's Space Science and Engineering Division and lead author of Measurements of Energetic Particle Radiation in Transit to Mars on the Mars Science Laboratory, scheduled for publication in the journal Science on May 31.
"Understanding the radiation environment inside a spacecraft carrying humans to Mars or other deep space destinations is critical for planning future crewed missions," Zeitlin said. "Based on RAD measurements, unless propulsion systems advance rapidly, a large share of mission radiation exposure will be during outbound and return travel, when the spacecraft and its inhabitants will be exposed to the radiation environment in interplanetary space, shielded only by the spacecraft itself."
The RAD instrument measures radiation dose using silicon detector and plastic scintillator technology. The latter has a composition somewhat similar to tissue and is more sensitive to neutrons than are the silicon detectors. This illustration of RAD shows the silicon detectors (A, B & C) that measure charged particles and the plastic detectors (D, E & F) that measure both charged and neutral particles. (Hassler et al., 2012. Space Science Reviews, 170, 503. ) Image courtesy of Southwest Research Institute
Two forms of radiation pose potential health risks to astronauts in deep space: a chronic low dose of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) and the possibility of short-term exposures to the solar energetic particles (SEPs) associated with solar flares and coronal mass ejections. Radiation dose is measured in units of sievert (Sv) or millisievert (1/1000 Sv). Long-term population studies have shown that exposure to radiation increases a person's lifetime cancer risk; exposure to a dose of 1 Sv is associated with a 5 percent increase in fatal cancer risk.
GCRs tend to be highly energetic, highly penetrating particles that are not stopped by the modest shielding provided by a typical spacecraft. These high-energy particles include a small percentage of so-called heavy ions, which are atomic nuclei without their usual complement of electrons. Heavy ions are known to cause more biological damage than other types of particles.
The solar particles of concern for astronaut safety are typically protons with kinetic energies up to a few hundred MeV (one MeV is a million electron volts). Solar events typically produce very large fluxes of these particles, as well as helium and heavier ions, but rarely produce higher-energy fluxes similar to GCRs. The comparatively low energy of typical SEPs means that spacecraft shielding is much more effective against SEPs than GCRs.
"A vehicle carrying humans into deep space would likely have a 'storm shelter' to protect against solar particles. But the GCRs are harder to stop and, even an aluminum hull a foot thick wouldn't change the dose very much," said Zeitlin.
"The RAD data show an average GCR dose equivalent rate of 1.8 millisieverts per day in cruise. The total during just the transit phases of a Mars mission would be approximately 0.66 Sv for a round trip with current propulsion systems," said Zeitlin. Time spent on the surface of Mars might add considerably to the total dose equivalent, depending on shielding conditions and the duration of the stay. Exposure values that ensure crews will not exceed the various space agencies standards are less than 1 Sv.
"Scientists need to validate theories and models with actual measurements, which RAD is now providing. These measurements will be used to better understand how radiation travels through deep space and how it is affected and changed by the spacecraft structure itself," says Donald M. Hassler, a program director at Southwest Research Institute and principal investigator of the RAD investigation. "The spacecraft protects somewhat against lower energy particles, but others can propagate through the structure unchanged or break down into secondary particles."
Only about 5 percent of the radiation dose was associated with solar particles, both because it was a relatively quiet period in the solar cycle and due to shielding provided by the spacecraft. Crew exposures during a human mission back and forth to Mars would depend on the habitat shielding and the unpredictable nature of large SEP events. Even so, the results are representative of a trip to Mars under conditions of low to moderate solar activity.
"This issue will have to be addressed, one way or another, before humans can go into deep space for months or years at a time," said Zeitlin.

The Indian Constitution is one of the world's longest and most important political texts. Its birth, over six decades ago, signalled the arrival of the first major post-colonial constitution and the world's largest and arguably most daring democratic experiment. Apart from greater domestic focus on the Constitution and the institutional role of the Supreme Court within India's democratic framework, recent years have also witnessed enormous comparative interest in India's constitutional experiment.
The Oxford Handbook of the Indian Constitution is a wide-ranging, analytical reflection on the major themes and debates that surround India's Constitution. The Handbook provides a comprehensive account of the developments and doctrinal features of India's Constitution, as well as articulating frameworks and methodological approaches through which studies of Indian constitutionalism, and constitutionalism more generally, might proceed. Its contributions range from rigorous, legal studies of provisions within the text to reflections upon historical trends and social practices. As such the Handbook is an essential reference point not merely for Indian and comparative constitutional scholars, but for students of Indian democracy more generally.

And we did not send a Messenger except with the language of his people to make clear...............
in response to reader comment: The Qur'an says that Jesus must be Allah and no I'm not kidding
"And we did not send a Messenger except with the language of his people to make clear..."
Allah said that he sends Messengers that speak the languages of their people to make clear for them his Message. This does not mean that Islam is the religion of the Arabs alone. Allah also says "for every nation there is a warner" and Allah will not punish anyone who he did not recive the Message of Islam. Allah also says that we believe in the other Messengers and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Muhammad came as the last Messenger to bring the same Message as the ither Messengers and Prophets. That means that I can be a Muslim.
P.S. Why should I care about something that never took place?
Mark my comment as a response to And we did not send a Messenger except with the language of his people to make clear............... by Adil

Q: php variable to google charts api no JSON I'm trying to pass a few PHP variables into a Google Chart, and I cannot seem to get the syntax right.  I don't want to invoke JSON (need I?).
Stock example: This works:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

    google.load('visualization', '1.0', {'packages':['corechart']});

    google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);

    function drawChart() {
        var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
        data.addColumn('string', 'Number');
        data.addColumn('number', 'Frequency');
    data.addRows([
            ['Mushrooms', 3],
            ['Onions', 1],
            ['Olives', 1],
            ['Zucchini', 1],
            ['Pepperoni', 2]
        ]);
        var options = {
            'title':'Title',
            'width':400,
            'height':300
        };

    var chart = new google.visualization.BarChart(document.getElementById('chart_div'));
    chart.draw(data, options);
}
</script>

However, this does not (assume all the same surrounding code)
  function drawChart() {

  var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
  data.addColumn('string', 'Number');
  data.addColumn('number', 'Frequency');
     data.addRows([
    ['Mushrooms', <?php echo $phpvariable ?>],
    ['Onions', 1],
    ['Olives', 1],
    ['Zucchini', 1],
    ['Pepperoni', 2]
  ]);

My thoughts:
Positioning of the calculation of $phpvariable is wrong? or do I just need to use JSON somehow, and PHP variables cannot be passed?

Relating to the use of assistance animals that provide assistance to persons with disabilities; providing criminal penalties.
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. It is estimated that the fines associated with a punishment for an offense under this act will generate new revenue; not anticipated to have a significant impact.
Summary of Legislation: This legislation provides that a food service establishment, retail food store, public facility, retail business, commercial establishment, office, or other entity regulated under this chapter may not deny an assistance animal admittance. Service animals are extended to include service for "developmental disabilities and PTSD". This legislation changes the offense for discrimination from a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of "not less than $300 or community service" to not more than $300 and 30 hours of community service. The punishment for falsifying a disability claim is a fine of not more than $300 and 30 hours community service.
Analysis: A Service animal as defined by the Department of Justice following the Americans with Disabilities Act is a dog which is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability. Federal Law states that Service animals must be allowed to go anywhere their handler goes; this includes all of the places and situations that this legislation enumerates. This legislation addresses the possibility that a service animal may not necessarily be a dog and expands the definition of disability under state statute. Much of this legislation is duplicative and could be simplified by simply addressing the service animal definition and PTSD and mental disability qualifications.
While this legislation benefits personal liberty of those Texans with disabilities who use service animals, adding mandatory community service to the penalty for violation is excessive and not in alignment with limited government. Due to this conflict of our liberty principles, we remain neutral on this legislation.


With 18 reviews on Amazon and an average rating of 4.9 stars, this free mystery available today on Amazon is sure to be an exciting read.
More than anything else in the world, nine-year-old Jacks wants to help his dying mother. A simple blood test could allow him to do that. But what Annie Brody hasn't told her son yet is that they don't share any DNA because he came from an anonymous woman's egg.
So why does the blood test show Jacks and Annie are related?
The answer is half a world away where a young woman is battling famine, disease, and an endless war to care for 20,000 refugees, the only family she has ever really had. As if that wasn't enough, she's made enemies with the one man who controls the supplies her people desperately need.
She alone holds the cure for Annie.
Life Strings is a race against time on every level, a story of a mother willing to put her son in harm's way in order to save them both, and of another who discovers the inescapable bonds of blood.

Short Answers to Challenging Texts: Genesis 1-3
God created Adam first:
Genesis 1-3 contains nothing that suggests that man, because he was created first, was designated by God to function as the authority, or leader of woman. If we argued on the basis of this claim, then we would have to say that the plants and animals were to have authority over human beings because they came before humankind. Rather, the creation story is ordered so that the more complex beings come last; the climax of creation was human beings. On this basis, it could be concluded that Eve was more complex than Adam. In fact, Eve was the climax of creation, for humankind was not complete until Eve was created.
Those who point to God's special place for the first-born neglect the many examples in Scripture in which preference is given to the second child over the first: Isaac over Ishmael (Gen. 21), Jacob over Esau (Gen. 27), Rachel over Leah (Gen. 29), Ephraim over Manasseh (Gen. 48), Joseph over his brothers (Gen. 37), David over his brothers (1 Sam. 17). Would we say that John the Baptist was called to have authority over Jesus because he came first?
The purpose of the sequential creation of Adam and then Eve in Genesis 2 is to show the need they have for each other and the unity ("one-flesh") of their relationship.1 Adam alone was "not good," and he was in need of a partner. It was not until Eve was created that the creation of humankind was complete and good.
Eve was taken out of Adam's rib (2:21-22):
Some assume that the creation of Eve out of Adam's rib shows her inferiority or subordination to Adam. The purpose for the creation of Eve out of Adam's rib was to illustrate their similarity and likeness, for they were both made from the same flesh, and in marriage they become one flesh again (Gen. 2:24). Adam rejoices in this similarity when he exclaims, "this is at last bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh" (Gen. 2:23). In 1 Corinthians 11:12, Paul writes, "For just as woman came from man, so man comes through woman…" indicating their equality. The source of woman was man, and the source of man is woman.
Adam named Eve:
Adam calling Eve "woman" does not indicate Adam's authority over her; rather, it is an expression of the similarities that they share, as Adam exclaims "This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; this one shall be called woman, for out of man this one was taken" (Gen. 2:23). In the Hebrew, the man is called ish and the woman ishsha, the similarity in the names being intentional. This is a word play, for just as the man (adam) was formed from the ground (adamah), so the woman (ishsha) was formed from the man (ish). These designations refer to the unity of the relationship to one another. To suggest that when Adam called Eve "woman" implies his authority over her is superimposed on the text. Scripture gives no indication that God gave Adam authority over Eve. Rather, by exclaiming "this one shall be called woman, for out of man this one was taken" Adam was expressing joy at the similarity and unity he shared with Eve, a joy he did not exhibit when encountering the other animals.
Adam and Eve had different roles:
Those who claim that Adam and Eve had different roles are referring to the roles of male authority, or "leader," and female submission, or "helper." The Scripture contains nothing that suggests that Adam and Eve had different roles before the fall. Nowhere in the text is Adam called be in authority over Eve or to be her leader. Genesis 1:26-30 clearly indicates that both Adam and Eve were made in God's image and both were given dominion over the earth and its creatures. Eve was made because Adam was in need of a partner to help exercise dominion over the earth (2:18). But, the text does not suggest that Eve's identity or role was in that of a subordinate helper (see below for meaning of "helper"). The point of the narrative is not that the woman was created to be a helper, but that one male human being was insufficient, and Adam's momentarily aloneness was the only "not good" in a perfect world! The creation of Eve is to fulfill Adam's lack and need for a partner who was like him. Hierarchy in human relationships came as a result of sin (Gen. 3:16).
Eve was created to be a helper (2:18):
The Hebrew words used here to describe woman as a helper are 'ezer kenegdo. The word 'ezer means "helper" and is never used in the Old Testament to refer to an inferior or to a subordinate. In fact, the word is used in reference to God as our helper (Psalm 10:14; 30:10; 54:4; 70:5; 72:12; 121:2). Clearly God is not our subordinate. 'Ezer is a sign of strength and power. Kenegdo is a Hebrew preposition and adverb meaning "corresponding to" or "face to face," so it is best understood as meaning that Eve was a fitting partner for Adam, for she was like him. Eve was created as an equal to Adam. She was given equal authority and dominion over the earth (Gen. 1:28).
Eve was responsible for the fall/The fall occurred because Eve attempted to usurp Adam's authority:
Both Adam and Eve knew not to eat the fruit (Gen. 2:16-17; 3:2), both disobeyed (3:6), and both were held responsible (Gen. 3:15-22). Nothing in the text suggests that the fall happened because Eve attempted to take authority over Adam. Also, nothing in the text suggests that Adam had authority over Eve before the fall. The snake challenged God's authority, not the man's (Gen. 3). The narrative makes it clear that the sin was disobedience to God (Gen. 3:11).
Gen. 3:16: "Your desire shall be for your husband and he shall rule over you.":
This verse reflects the consequences of sin due to disobedience. It is not a prescriptive statement about how man and woman ought to relate to one another, nor is it God's original intent for male and female relationships. Rather, the subordination of women is the result of sin.

I get only this messages Message: include(): Failed opening 'application/views/errorshtml/error_404.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;c:\php\pear')
How can I do now

A: Most times this error is happening because of file naming problems. I think you are using a Linux hosting. So I also faced to the same problem and finally I found the solution we cannot use file names with UPPERCASE characters.
Example
If we have a controller called my_controller the file name is should be like this my_controller.php and don't use UPPERCASE characters like this My_Controller.php, myController.php for the file name.


There will be three distinct divisions of logic which deal with different problems and have to be taken up successively. The first, which is that which simply performs the anatomy and histology of reasoning, may be called logical syntax. It has also been called speculative grammar.
