According to the 2016 Commercial District Needs Assessment conducted by SBS, consumers who shopped within the Burnside Avenue Commercial District area wanted "healthier choices" in terms of eating options and restaurants. Directly addressing this need, MHHC designed a Burnside Commercial District Corridor "menu" (Eat Healthy Menu) that will highlight healthy food options/meals for purchase by shoppers that visit any food merchant, bodega, restaurant or supermarket within the target area.
The campaign, created by MHHC and funded by a grant from the New York City Department of Small Business Services (SBS), is designed to promote healthy eating habits amongst consumers by highlighting healthful food options offered by merchants (supermarkets, bodegas, and restaurants) along Burnside Avenue. The goal is to encourage residents to opt for healthy food and make them aware that those healthier options exist at eateries all along Burnside Avenue.
Special events in partnership with the small businesses to promote their healthy eating meals.

New York Mercantile Exchange, Inc. ("NYMEX") Notice to Members 05-50, published on February 22, 2005, provides an interpretation of Exchange of Futures for Physical ("EFP") transactions traded on COMEX to confirm that the Exchange would accept gold-backed exchange-traded Funds ("ETF") shares as the physical commodity component for an EFP transaction involving COMEX gold futures contracts, provided that all elements of a bona fide EFP pursuant to Exchange Rule 104.36 are satisfied.
For your convenience, NYMEX Notice to Members 05-50 is being re-disseminated below.
Should you have any questions, please contact Anthony Densieski at (212) 299-2881.
Exchange Rule 104.36, which governs exchanges of futures for physicals ("EFP") transactions on the COMEX Division, refers to a "physical commodity" as one of the required components of an EFP transaction but also indicates that the physical commodity need only be substantially the economic equivalent of the futures contract being exchanged.
The purpose of this Notice is to confirm that the Exchange would accept gold-backed exchange-traded Funds ("ETF") shares as the physical commodity component for an EFP transaction involving COMEX gold futures contracts, provided that all elements of a bona fide EFP pursuant to Exchange Rule 104.36 are satisfied.
Thus, acceptable gold-backed and exchange-traded ETF funds include, but are not limited to, the iShares COMEX® Gold Trust (ticker: IAU), which began trading on the American Stock Exchange on January 28, 2005.
That trust is an exchange-traded fund that provides a means of obtaining a level of participation in the gold market through the securities market. The trust shares are intended to constitute a means of making an investment similar to an investment in gold. Each trust share represents a fractional undivided beneficial interest in the trust's net assets which consist primarily of gold held by a custodian on behalf of the trust. The shares of that trust are expected to reflect the price of gold less the trust's expenses and liabilities.

After the bats, snakes and minks, now the pangolin is under accusation: it could have been responsible for the transmission of the Chinese coronavirus to humans. Research published on the Guangzhou University website shows that the genetic sequences of the virus isolated from the pangolin are 99% similar to those of the virus that is circulating among people. The hypothesis is still to be confirmed, but Nature defines it at least "plausible".
The "hunt" for the animal species that would transmit 2019-nCov to humans is still open. As we learned in the past few weeks, the virus that has infected more than 30,000 people and caused hundreds of deaths belongs to the coronavirus genus, which is responsible for the Sars and Mers epidemics. Also in this case, the enemy is a zoonosis, which is an infection transmitted by animals to humans. The first infected, in fact, were all frequent visitors to a market in Wuhan that sells live wild animals, including bats, frogs, hedgehogs and snakes. The challenge for researchers is to reconstruct the path of the virus, which would almost certainly have started from bats and passed first to an intermediate animal species and then to humans.
Snakes are innocent
Such path has partially been reconstructed thanks to the analysis of the viral genome, available since early January. Although similar to that of the virus isolated in bats, it also bears the signs of "genetic contamination" with another virus, still unknown. To be missing, therefore, is the intermediate species, the link between the bats and the humans: probably another animal among those sold at the Wuhan market. In late January, Chinese research had pointed the finger at snakes, but was promptly disproved by the rest of the scientific community. Some virologists interviewed by Nature had immediately expressed their doubts, explaining that this virus infects only mammals and birds and that adaptation to a reptile hosts would have required much more time and a genome alteration that does not seem to have occurred .
The track of the pangolin
Other hypothesis of the University of Beijing had been that of the mink, or the palm civet cat as intermediate hosts of the coronavirus. But the most recent hypothesis "accuses" the pangolin, a small mammal similar to an anteater that lives in the tropical areas of southern Asia. In fact, the analysis of the genetic sequences of the viruses isolated from these animals closely resembles those of 2019-nCov (over 99% of their genome is identical).
But researchers interviewed in Nature express caution. The study has not yet been published in an official journal, but only on the website of the Chinese university of Guangzhou and not in the full version. "We need more details - says Edward Holmes, an evolutionist virologist at the University of Sidney - but the data in our possession show that the pangolin is the carrier of a virus very similar to 2019-nCov". And already last year researchers had identified coronaviruses as one of the potential causes of pangolin death, as they are an endangered species. And it was also known that pangolin virus receptors, which the pathogen uses to infect cells, have a similar molecular structure to that of 2019-nCov. "The pangolin was already considered a good candidate for being the intermediate species of the virus and it is therefore very interesting that the researchers found such a sequence," says David Robertson, a computational virologist at the University of Glasgow.
Stop illegal trade
The search for the intermediate species is not yet complete, but the pangolin is currently confirmed as the main suspect. It is an endangered species, decimated by the illegal trafficking of its meat, its scales and some of its parts used in traditional Chinese medicine. Pangolins are not among the animals sold in the Wuhan market, but precisely because their trade is illegal, the information may have been deliberately omitted. James Wood, who heads the veterinary medicine department at Cambridge University (UK) reports to Focus that "whatever the outcome of these investigations, working to end the wildlife trade can help solve some of the long-term risks associated with animal basins of zoonoses ".

The 16 Coolest Gadgets We Saw at Mobile World Congress
Author: Maurizio PesceMaurizio Pesce
Samsung Galaxy S6. The most anticipated phone of the show is not an evolution of Samsung's previous Galaxy S5, but a brand new design. In fact, the S6 is made of aluminium instead of plastic, and its 5.1-inch display has the same 2560 x 1440 resolution of the Note 4. A super-crispy 16-megapixel camera completes the package. The S6 will ship in April. The price is rumored at $799.
The Galaxy S6 Edge
Sony Xperia M4 Aqua. No flagship from Sony this year. But the Xperia M4 Aqua squeezes a lot of the premium features from Sony's top-tier Xperia line into an affordable $300 handset. The Aqua has a 64-bit octa-core chipset, 2GB of RAM, and 16GB of expandable storage packed inside an aluminium frame. And, like the big Xperias, it's dust and water resistant. Ships in April.
Bluesmart. This "connected carry-on" has a built-in scale to weigh itself. The current weight is displayed on an app on your phone. A battery pack inside charges your devices while you travel. It also comes with a Telefonica SIM card to trace the bag on a map whenever you lose it. Pre-order one for $299. It ships later this year.
HTC One M9. The third version of HTC's premier smartphone comes with a slightly smaller aluminium body than the previous two, with a particular two-tone finish made of gold and silver. HTC has ditched the "ultrapixel" camera on the back, picking a 20-megapixel sensor instead. The new One will be available mid-March at a rumored price of $829.
Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3. Whatever side you see when you fish this phone from your pocket, it'll be the correct one. Alcatel has designed its new phone to be reversible, so it works the same even when it's upside down. It has a symmetrical body with stereo speakers and two microphones, one on each end. It will come in April in two sizes. Unofficial pricing: $200 for the 4.7-inch version, and $250 for the 5.5-incher.
HTC Re Vive. The most unexpected announcement of the show was HTC's virtual reality headset. Made in partnership with Valve, it will run on ValveVR. Two IR trackers and dozens of built-in sensors will allow players to roam freely around a 15x15-foot room. It also pairs with wireless controllers for interacting with virtual objects. No pricing was announced, but Re Vive will hit stores this year. (By the way, that's HTC's Jeffrey Gattis wearing the headset.)
Hauwei Talkband B2. This fitness-tracking wearable by the Chinese mobile giant has a slim and simple touchscreen. It can track movement, monitor sleep, and it pairs to both iOS and Android phones. Also, the main unit pops off the band and can be worn as an earpiece for taking phone calls. It will ship in April for around $200.
Lenovo Vibe Shot. This is a hybrid between a smartphone and a point-and-shoot camera. The 16-megapixel low-light image sensor is complemented by a six-piece modular lens and an optical image stabilization system. It has a "Pro mode" that lets you set everything from ISO to white balance. The Vibe Shot will be available stateside in June for $350.
Jolla Tablet. Named the best tablet of the Mobile World Congress 2015, the world's first crowdsourced slate is 8.3 millimeters thick and runs Jolla's independent Sailfish OS. It features a 7.85-inch IPS LCD display with 330 ppi resolution, 5-megapixel camera, Intel quad-core processor with 2GB of RAM and 32 to 64GB of internal storage. It ships later this year, pricing TBA.
MyFC JAQ. This neat fuel-cell charger gives you power in any off-the-grid situation. Inside every card is a salt and water power cell. Electricity is instantly generated as soon as a cartridge is inserted into the rubberish charger sleeve. Each charge provides 2400mAh. And, it's FAA travel certified. The JAQ will ship in late 2015. 10 cards should cost around $10, while the pouch will be $99.
LG Watch Urbane LTE. The fourth smartwatch made by LG isn't an Android Wear device, but runs WebOS instead. It is cellular-connected and comes with built-in microphone and speaker to make phone calls without needing a tethered phone. Along with the upcoming Apple Watch, it will be the only one to include NFC-based mobile payments. Pricing has yet to be announced, but will likely be well above $300.
Gionee Elife S5.1. This super-slim smartphone is just 5.15 millimeters thick. It is made of glass and metal, with a 4.8-inch HD display, a 2050mAh battery, an octa-core processor, and 16GB of internal storage. It's weight is ridiculous: just 97.7 grams. Elife S5.1 retails in India at 19,000 INR, around $300.
Nokia N1. Looks just like an iPad Mini, doesn't it? It's Nokia' latest tablet, an 7.9-inch Android device with an aluminum back and a 2048 x 1536 display. The N1 runs Lollipop augmented with Nokia's Z launcher software that helps organize apps and information on your homescreen. It's China-only right now, but maybe it'll show up elsewhere soon. The current price is around $250.
Saygus v2. This Utah-based company has packed more crazy specs into a single smartphone than any other device we've seen here in Barcelona. It has a 3100mAh battery, Kevlar case edges, and it's rated IPx7 waterproof. Above all, Saygu's V2 (V Squared) has dual microSD slots to expand the 64GB of internal storage up to 464GB. It ships later this spring. Pre-orders are $599.
ZTE SPro2 Smart Projector. This portable projector has 16GB of internal memory, so you don't have to plug in your smartphone to play your media. It also has three hours of battery life, so you will likely be able to watch a whole movie with it. Ships in summer, no rumor about the price.
Phones, phones, phones. That's the mantra of Mobile World Congress, the smartphone industry event of the year where the world's top manufacturers gather in Barcelona, Spain to showcase their latest products. The show just wrapped up, and this is our look at what stood out as the best hardware at the expo.
This year, every brand has an improved flagship handset made with improved components and finer materials like aluminum and sapphire glass. Prices are getting lower too, bringing these premium features to more affordable devices.
While the main focus is still on traditional handsets, lots of the cool gadgets announced here aren't phones at all. Technology is being shaped around our wrists: fitness trackers, smartbands, and smartwatches are still in abundance. It's been a year since the explosion of Android watches, and we're still trying to figure out what the next big thing will be. Maybe we'll learn a little more in a few days with the Apple Watch event.
Meanwhile, we're happy with most of the things we've seen here. Have a look at our photo gallery to see a selection of the best phones, watches, and mobile gadgets.

This piece is approximately 28 inches in length, and is composed of faceted aqua quartz, antique brass ring with antique brass feathers. It is finished with an antique brass toggle clasp.
This piece belongs to a collection that was inspired by Gloria Steinem, pioneer of the 20th century 2nd wave feminist movement. Her political activism and steadfast conviction in fighting for women's rights has paved the way for others to join this ever-evolving fight. Feminist, journalist, activist, human being….each of these titles deserve voice. How do you speak yours?
Women are innately gifted with immensely powerful intuition, knowledge, and communication, but historically have been oppressed by societal constraints and false ideals. Instead of celebrating our voices and unique perspectives, we have been molded to conform and remain silent. But we must ask ourselves: What do we hear and feel in our mind, body, and soul? How do we express that consciousness? The effects of a repressed voice wreak havoc on the entire system; physically, mentally, and emotionally. Women must seize the moment and tune into their instincts to express their desires and thoughts, even if they are contradictory to the arbitrary expectations set forth by society and patriarchy. Gloria Steinem harnessed her voice to represent and inspire multiple generations of women to shed light upon the antiquated forces keeping us unheard. She continues the fight for women to hold agency over their own bodies and relationships, to be compensated fairly as a professional, and establishes forums to discuss a variety of humanitarian matters. By simply putting a face and unyielding voice to this activism, Gloria Steinem's character and conviction are the essence of the attunement and power that manifests from the combined heart and throat chakras.
Expression and presence cultivate a strong and true source of life within and in turn vibrate out to all energies and beings around us. It is no mistake that the aqua aura emanates from below the throat chakra and above the heart chakra, bridging the vibrations of the two. Hues of aqua blue and green symbolize the unity of the heart and throat chakras to promote clarity of desires and expression. In embracing these stones and crystals, we are paving a compassionate and intentional way to achieve balance, as the throat chakra serves as a vessel to allow energy to flow with ease throughout our spirit and body. People often seek out lush nature or bodies of water in pursuit of serenity and calm. Elements like turquoise, amazonite, aquamarine, and chrysocolla can invoke the same powerful effect, particularly when worn in close contact to a pulse or chakra point. When our energy flows freely and authentically, we are able to achieve alignment and further our enlightenment. Our stories, emotions, and beliefs must be given voice and we must also be an open presence to receive those of others.
These stones and crystals nourish the aqua blue-green aura and ease fears associated with speaking, whether they are due to trauma, insecurities, or anxiety of an audience. When this aura is blocked with self-doubt and suffering, meditation or adornment with these stones can flood the heart and throat chakras with a loving energy to release you from such agony and liberate your voice. A cleansed heart center and balanced energy will reflect an enlightened and aligned reality that will allow us to express ourselves and convictions in a genuine and firm voice to better cultivate relationships and creativity. Our words create our reality and either restrict or open our heart space; do not allow silence to give space for someone else to design your life and values. Shine your heart and speak your truth. The divine and powerful feminine gives and enhances life in a multitude of ways and the world craves such energy to prosper. Do not stifle your authentic expression for the sake of conformity or fear. Instead, cultivate a community for support, reflection, and dialogue so that our unique, individual and collective voices can continue to evolve and unabashedly express themselves.

That means methane might be a bigger global warming issue than thought, scientists say. Methane is 21 times more potent at trapping heat than carbon dioxide, the most abundant global warming gas, though it doesn't stay in the air as long.
Much of that extra methane, also called natural gas, seems to be coming from livestock, including manure, belches and flatulence, as well as leaks from refining and drilling for oil and gas, the study says. It was published yesterday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.
The study estimates that in 2008, the United States poured 49 million tons of methane into the air. That means U.S. methane emissions trapped about as much heat as all the carbon dioxide pollution coming from cars, trucks and planes in the country in six months.
EPA spokeswoman Alisha Johnson said her agency hasn't had time to go through the study yet but hopes it will help "refine our estimates going forward."
Nearly one-quarter of the U.S. methane emissions came from those three states. Texas is by far and away the No. 1 state for refineries that turn oil into gasoline. Texas and Oklahoma have been big oil and gas drilling states, and Kansas is a big cow state.

Being a young tenant and a student Shalyn was paying a set monthly bill on her water and found she was paying for water she was not using due to being out for most of the day. Shalyn wanted to save some money and only pay for the water she uses.
Since I had the water meter I found it has benefitted me as I don't use much water and have short showers. The water saving products and tips have taught me to be more water efficient.
You too can make easy savings on your bills and take small steps to help the environment. If you live on your own or if you have a small family, a water meter could be right for you. Switching to a water meter is FREE and could save you around £100 per year so it's a worthwhile investment!

          Database Example

          Prev
          Chapter 7. Databases
           Next

Database Example

        Throughout this book we will build a couple of applications that load
        and retrieve inventory data from DB databases. While we are not yet ready to
        begin reading from or writing to our databases, we can at least create
        the class that we will use to manage our databases.

        Note that subsequent examples in this book will build on this code to
        perform the more interesting work of writing to and reading from the
        databases.

        Note that you can find the complete implementation of these functions
        in:

DB_INSTALL/examples_java/db/GettingStarted

        where DB_INSTALL is the location where you
        placed your DB distribution.

          Example 7.1 MyDbs Class

            To manage our database open and close activities, we encapsulate them
            in the MyDbs class. There are several good reasons
            to do this, the most important being that we can ensure our databases are
            closed by putting that activity in the MyDbs
            class destructor.

            To begin, we import some needed classes:

// File: MyDbs.java
package db.GettingStarted;

import com.sleepycat.db.Database;
import com.sleepycat.db.DatabaseConfig;
import com.sleepycat.db.DatabaseException;
import com.sleepycat.db.DatabaseType;

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

    And then we write our class declaration and provided some necessary private data members:

public class MyDbs {

    // The databases that our application uses
    private Database vendorDb = null;
    private Database inventoryDb = null;

    private String vendordb = "VendorDB.db";
    private String inventorydb = "InventoryDB.db";

    // Our constructor does nothing
    public MyDbs() {}

    Next we need a setup() method. This is where
    we configure and open our databases.

    // The setup() method opens all our databases
    // for us.
    public void setup(String databasesHome)
        throws DatabaseException {

        DatabaseConfig myDbConfig = new DatabaseConfig();

        myDbConfig.setErrorStream(System.err);
        myDbConfig.setErrorPrefix("MyDbs");
        myDbConfig.setType(DatabaseType.BTREE);
        myDbConfig.setAllowCreate(true);

        // Now open, or create and open, our databases
        // Open the vendors and inventory databases
        try {
            vendordb = databasesHome + "/" + vendordb;
            vendorDb = new Database(vendordb,
                                    null,
                                    myDbConfig);

            inventorydb = databasesHome + "/" + inventorydb;
            inventoryDb = new Database(inventorydb,
                                        null,
                                        myDbConfig);
        } catch(FileNotFoundException fnfe) {
            System.err.println("MyDbs: " + fnfe.toString());
            System.exit(-1);
        }
    }

    Finally, we provide some getter methods, and our close() method.

   // getter methods
    public Database getVendorDB() {
        return vendorDb;
    }

    public Database getInventoryDB() {
        return inventoryDb;
    }

    // Close the databases
    public void close() {
        try {
            if (vendorDb != null) {
                vendorDb.close();
            }

            if (inventoryDb != null) {
                inventoryDb.close();
            }
        } catch(DatabaseException dbe) {
            System.err.println("Error closing MyDbs: " +
                                dbe.toString());
            System.exit(-1);
        }
    }
}

"We still don't know. Even as we speak now the laboratory [in Lagos] has not given us an update," Phumla Williams said. "We reckon by end of the week there will be some information.
On October 12, the City Press quoted a Nigerian medical examiner as saying the bodies would be home by the end of the month. "We are looking at three weeks," Professor John Obafunwa, chief medical examiner of Lagos State was quoted as saying.
Obafunwa was overseeing the identification process and was speaking from Lagos University Teaching Hospital, where some of the remains were being kept. He said the autopsies had been completed and samples were shipped out for DNA analysis.
On September 12, 116 people – among them, 84 South Africans – were killed when a multi-storey guesthouse attached to the church collapsed in Lagos.

FIELDS OF DREAMS
Kazakhstan 2018 | ENERGY & MINING | INTERVIEW
TBY talks to Olivier Lazare, Vice President and Country Chair of Shell Kazakhstan, on 25 years of partnership with Kazakhstan, the Kashagan and Karachaganak fields, and expectations for the future.
A French native with a PhD in nuclear physics, Olivier Lazare has over 30 years' experience with Shell. His career has included a diverse range of roles in engineering, contracting and procurement, strategy and planning, and new business development, taking him to the UK, the Netherlands, Gabon, Brunei, Oman, Australia, the US, and Russia. Since 2013, prior to this appointment, Lazare held the role of Country Chair in Russia.
How would you describe the evolution of Shell's success story in the country since it first arrived?
Kazakhstan is a unique country. It is not only by the immensity of the country but also by its economic power and geopolitical influence. Kazakhstan has made an eminent journey of remarkable development and has now become the leading country in Central Asia. The country now heads the region in terms of its business environment and has shown the world what can be achieved. It is this dynamism and bright sense of future that attracted Shell to establish itself here since Kazakhstan's independence. Historically, we have long roots in the region, as Shell's presence in the Caspian region stretches over 100 years and here in Kazakhstan dates back to the early 1990s. Our company was one of the first foreign investors to acknowledge the great potential this newly sovereign nation offered and have followed this path of partnership with Kazakhstan ever since. We have invested billions of dollars in oil and gas projects, both onshore and offshore. The combination with BG Group last year enlarged Shell's operations further, and we are and intend to remain one of the largest foreign investors in the country. This year is the 25th anniversary of our presence in country. Shell has achieved a great deal over the past years as a result of our efficient and true cooperation with our joint ventures' partners and the government of Kazakhstan.
What have been the key operational developments at Shell in Kazakhstan over the past year?
In country, we are involved in several major projects. In 2016 we resumed production at the offshore Kashagan field. This was an enormous milestone in our journey to bringing Kashagan safely and reliably into production. NCOC NV, the operator, has shown great resilience in overcoming multiple difficulties over the years. At the moment Kashagan ramp-up is ongoing and production exceeded expectation despite some teething problems usually associated with the start of such a giant project. In 2017, it delivered successful growth reaching an average production of over 220,000boe/d. Our top priority for Kashagan is to provide maximum support for NCOC NV to ensure safe operations. Another major Asset is jointly operated by Shell and Eni: the Karachaganak project, one of the world's largest gas condensate fields. Karachaganak has delivered the highest production ever, reaching 92% in availability. The record production in 2017 was an average of 390,000boe/d for the year. Karachaganak also achieved high standards of safety, reliability, and environmental performance. The current performance of Karachaganak is world class and credit goes to all those involved in our day-to-day operations. However, we must never be complacent and constantly focus our efforts on delivering safe and reliable production.
What significance does Kazakhstan play for the company's global operation?
Kazakhstan is a very important country and one of the building blocks of the Royal Dutch Shell portfolio. We are in the top-five of Shell's upstream segment, making a tremendous contribution to the company's cash flow.
What are your expectations for the company and the oil and gas sector in Kazakhstan in 2018?
Our primary focus is to ensure safe and sustainable operations at all our assets in the country with a focus on local content development. The mid to long-term development of Karachaganak beyond the above period is to maintain liquids offtake at current rates. A series of medium-scale projects are planned to drill more wells and upgrade the gas handling and disposal capacity of the existing field facilities. We are working together with KPO and the JV partners to land an economic concept of further field development. At Kashagan we focus on safe ramp-up targeting to the capacity produce 370,000bpd as soon as possible. We have been in Kazakhstan for 25 years now and we are committed and ready to help the country unlock its vast energy potential in a sustainable way for the benefit of the government and people of Kazakhstan for decades to come.

Alles, was von Gott geboren, BWV 80a (Todo o que em Deus tem nascido) é uma cantata de igreja escrita por Johann Sebastian Bach em Weimar para o terceiro domingo de Quaresma e estreada o 24 de março de 1715 ou bem o 15 de março de 1716.
Toda a música desta cantata se perdeu. Entretanto, para 1730 Bach ampliou esta obra para criar uma cantata com a que celebrar no Dia da Reforma, dando como resultado Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott, BWV 80, que nos permite deduzir alguns aspectos musicais da BWV 80a.

História
Desde 1708 Bach trabalhou para a corte em Weimar. Em 2 de março de 1714 Bach foi nomeado Konzertmeister da capela cortesana de Weimar dos duques co-reinantes Guillermo Ernesto e Ernesto Augusto de Sajonia-Weimar. Neste posto assumiu a responsabilidade principal de compor novas obras, concretamente cantatas para a Schlosskirche (igreja do palácio), com uma periodicidade mensal.

Bach compôs esta obra durante sua estadia em Weimar para o terceiro domingo de Quaresma, também conhecido como Oculi. A cantata foi interpretada pela primeira vez o 24 de março de 1715 conforme a Alfred Dürr ou 15 de março de 1716 segundo Klaus Hofmann.
Bach não pôde utilizar a obra em Leipzig, porque não se permitia a interpretação musical de cantatas durante a Quaresma. Os dois primeiros movimentos, aria e recitativo, foram transformados nos movimentos 2 e 3, os movimentos 4 e 5, recitativo e aria, passaram a ser os movimento 6 e 7.

Análise

Texto
As leituras estabelecidas para esse dia eram da epístola aos efesios, conselhos para uma vida virtuosa ( 5:1-9), e do evangelho segundo São Lucas expulsando a um demónio ( 11:14-28).

O texto da cantata era do poeta cortesano Salomo Franck (1659-1725) e foi publicado em Weimar em 1715 em Evangelisches Andachts-Opffer. O texto do primeiro movimento parafraseia um versículo da primeira epístola de João, "Porque todo o que é nascido de Deus vence ao mundo" ( 5:4). O coral de fechamento é a segunda estrofa do hino "Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott" de Martín Lutero.

Instrumentação
A obra está escrita para quatro vozes solistas (soprano, alto, tenor e baixo), um coro a quatro vozes; a instrumentação é desconhecida.

Estrutura
Consta de seis movimentos.
 Aria (baixo): Alles, was von Gott geboren
 Recitativo (baixo): Erwäge doch, Kind Gottes, die so große Liebe
 Aria (soprano):
 Recitativo (tenor):
 Aria (alto, tenor):
 Coral:
Ainda que perdeu-se a música, alguns aspectos podem-se deduzir da cantata posterior para o Dia da Reforma. Provavelmente a primeira aria continha um cantus firmus instrumental do coral "Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott" de Lutero, cantado pela soprano em BWV 80. Ambos recitativos começam sendo secco e terminam num arioso. O primeiro enfatiza o texto  (para que o espírito de Cristo se assente com força em vocês), o segundo  (teu Salvador seguirá sendo teu tesouro). O coral de fechamento é um arranjo a quatro vozes da segunda estrofe do hino de Lutero. Bach's harmonisation of that movement possibly survives in BWV 303.

Gaslow is an LPG (gas) delivery system which is designed for use in caravans, motorhomes and boats. It removes the necessity to change gas bottles as the Gaslow bottles can be refilled at any LPG filling point including those in fuel stations all over the U.K. and the Continent.
Gaslow bottles are available in three sizes and a range of installation accessories is available which enable the system to be fitted to most motorhomes.
As long the installation is fitted and maintained correctly, Gaslow systems are just as safe as ones that use standard bottles and a lot more convenient.
Having a Gaslow system means that you will save money every time you fill a bottle - compared to what you would pay if you were exchanging a standard, pre-filled bottle. It also removes the problem of finding a supplier of gas bottles which will fit your vehicles connections and, when abroad, that will be just about everywhere.
I would like to thank you very very much for your invaluable help....good luck to you in the future.
