Reconceptualising faith-based diplomacy to expand the diplomat's toolkit
Scott Blakemore
Faculty of Society & Design
Faith and religion have long been recognised as a dynamic force in the international system. Within the scope of Diplomacy Studies, however, the positive integration of faith into the theory and practices of diplomacy is only a recent endeavour. Faith-based diplomacy, which emerged in the 1990s, is a framework for achieving this effective integration. This thesis evaluates the theoretical constructs of faith-based diplomacy to assess if these frameworks are appropriate when addressing the challenges of the 21st Century. Given the changing nature of conflict, the implications of globalisation, and the impacts of global terrorism and religious violence, this thesis finds that the current theoretical frames are insufficient. As such, this thesis aims to reconceptualise the framework of faith-based diplomacy considering the theoretical advancements in Diplomacy Studies, and the changes in the international system since the faith-based diplomacy's introduction into scholarship. A comprehensive review of the literature in Diplomacy Studies reveals that faith-based diplomacy can benefit from the expanded scopes of analysis, including areas such as public diplomacy and cultural diplomacy. This, along with the development of concepts such as reconciliation, mediation and the tracks of diplomacy all suggest that the theoretical framework of faith-based diplomacy can be improved. To expound on this improvement, this thesis evaluates the development of theory in Diplomacy Studies more broadly, recognising the presence of faith and religion in diplomatic theory through history. This thesis, however, will also assess the actors who engage with diplomacy, highlighting ways in which faith-based diplomacy can be utilised by both state and nonstate actors. In doing so, this thesis provides an evaluation of faith-based diplomacy in theory, and also in terms of how actors in the contemporary international landscape may be able to engage in practice. From this evaluation, this thesis concludes with key recommendations on how faith-based diplomacy's framework can be reconceptualised to integrate more effectively the assets of religion into the practice of diplomacy. This reconceptualisation contributes to the growing body of scholarship within Diplomacy Studies by providing a theory that better reflects the nature of diplomatic theory and practice in the current international system.

Full Moon vol 29: The Ancestors
Living Sanskrit September 16, 2016 Newsletters
Have you ever heard the phrase, "You can't go where you're headed until you understand where you came from?"
This has never been more true, especially within a tradition that sees life as a continuous and interconnected wheel. Everything has a beginning, a middle, and an end. And, each thing impacts every other thing – so no matter where we go, we remain connected.
When we pass, we become ancestors (pitṛ) to those who are still alive. The ancestors are protectors and guardians of life, watching over their children, and all creation. And it's up to us – the living – to honor their sacrifices and express our gratitude for the gift of life by fulfilling the purpose of our lives with wisdom, virtue, and joy.
Beginning with tonight's full moon, we enter a sacred time known as Pitṛpakṣa (which literally means "the ancestors' fortnight"). It is a 16-day period where we connect with our ancestors and do good things on their behalf as an expression of respect and gratitude. We also receive their blessings, guidance, and protection.
We were literally created from the physical and spiritual energies of those who came before us. When we connect with our ancestral essence, we start transforming our most subconscious patterns and primal energies. And the effects of this can completely change our experience of life on earth.
Ancestor practice is one of the more mysterious but deeply potent aspects of the dharma tradition. If you really dive in to it, it can be wholly transformative and release a tremendous amount of fear, confusion, and burden from our lives.
In honor of Pitṛpakṣa, we have two special gifts to support your learning and practice:
FIRST, we are offering a free 16-day course on traditional ancestor practices, where you will learn a unique practice each day. You can sign up here, or click below. We're thankful to be able to teach on this interim platform as we finish production on this web site!
SECOND, we are offering our first live webinar class with Shivani Ray, the founder and a Core Teacher for Living Sanskrit. She will be teaching us how ancestor energies impact our lives on a daily basis, as well as guiding us through a traditional inner practice to connect with them and send blessings. And, you will have a chance to ask questions at the end – register here.
In lieu of giving you a single practice for this issue, we invite you to learn the wide range of ancestor practices by participating in the course and the live class. The single greatest way to honor your ancestors is to awaken and fulfill the purpose of your life, and we hope these tools will support you in your journey.

Hema Patankar
Hema Patankar has spent her life immersed in study, practice and service to the Vedic tradition. It began when she was a teenager irresistibly attracted to the sound of Sanskrit and images of yogis who had become profoundly wise and blissful through meditation.
An alumni of a gurukula in Western India, Hema spent over 30 years intimately engaged with the traditions that have emerged from the Vedas. She worked on research, translation, and editorial projects in the company of learned pandits and scholars. She assisted with yajnas – ancient fire ceremonies – and rituals, which allowed her to get extraordinarily close to the living practice of Vedic traditions. She immersed herself in the sādhana of singing Sanskrit hymns and the songs of the poet saints, which she studied intensively with her Gurus and traditional devotional singers. She became known for devotional singing, and taught students from around the world.
Hema has a passion for the preservation of sacred Vedic heritage. For several years she was the Executive Director of the Muktabodha Indological Research Institute. There she spearheaded the development of an extensive online collection of rare Sanskrit texts. She nurtured the establishment of a traditional Vedic school where an endangered branch of the Vedas is preserved. She also directed the video documentation of remarkable Vedic rituals and brought rare texts on Śaiva philosophy and Vedic ritual to publication.
She later studied traditional Āyūrveda and earned a Vaidya Bhusana (vaidyabhūṣaṇa) Ayurvedic Practitioner degree. She is President of the Board of Trustees of Vedika Global, a school for the study and practice of traditional Āyūrveda and Vedic sciences. She has published articles on Āyūrveda, the Bhakti tradition, and the preservation of Vedic manuscripts. Most recently she edited a text on Vedic full and new moon rituals. Her current writing focuses on the intersection of living Ayurveda with the rituals and philosophy of the Vedic tradition.

Kahr Arms Sponsoring NRA World Shooting Championship
by SI Staff - Saturday, June 17, 2017
Kahr Arms announced it would be a silver-level sponsor for the 2017 NRA World Shooting Championship. The championship is taking place from Sept. 14-16, 2017 at the Peacemaker Training Center in West Virginia.
Kahr Arms will be represented at the shoot by Joby Goerges, a first-time shooter at the championship and the company's director of manufacturing and engineering for Magnum Research. The company will also be sending John "Tig" Tiegen, a member of the Kahr Firearms Group pro staff.
Teigen was involved in the defense of the American diplomatic compount in Benghazi, Libya, on Sept. 11, 2012 when terrorists attacked the compound, killing four Americans. In recognition of his bravery, Teigen received the Award for Heroism and Valor. He is also the co-author of "13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened in Benghazi."
The NRA World Shooting Championships is a unique event where both amateur and professional shooters can come to compete in 12 different stages involving the use of pistols, rifles and shotguns. The match provides three days of challenging competition topped off by an awards banquet and the crowning of the title of "World Shooting Champion."
The professional division of the shooting championships is limited to those who receive financial support and services from a company for competitive-shooting activities, as well as those who have been part of a specialized firearms unit, such as SWAT or military groups. The amateur division is for shooters who do not have any affiliation with any professional shooting organization.
However, both groups must use the guns provided by the event hosts. No competitor may use their own personal firearms, gear and ammunition during the shoot, providing an extra level of challenge. More than $250,000 worth of cash and other prizes are up for grabs during the shoot, with separate prize tables for the professional and amateur divisions. First through third places win cash prizes for the event, as well as High Lady and High Amateur Junior shooters.

(Huffingtonpost) – PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii — Three Chinese ships carrying hundreds of sailors arrived in Hawaii on Friday to join a search-and-rescue exercise with the U.S. Navy during a rare visit intended to foster familiarity.
The guided missile destroyer Qingdao, a frigate and a supply ship were welcomed with performances by lion dancers and a children's hula group. The ships carrying 680 officers and sailors will participate in the exercise on Monday with the USS Lake Erie in waters off Waikiki and Diamond Head.
The exercise is an important way for the two navies to share information about operations so they don't misinterpret movements and potentially start a conflict, said Brad Glosserman, executive director of Pacific Forum at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
"There are lots of places where our vessels could end up in proximity, and we want to make very sure that when that happens we have the best possible understanding of what the other side is doing and why," he said.
The visit comes as Beijing continues to be wary about Washington's strategic "rebalance" toward Asia, in which the Navy is basing a majority of its ships in the Pacific and the U.S. is boosting ties with longtime allies such as Australia and Japan.
China sees the moves as an effort to counter its expanding military and contain its growing economic and political influence.
Chinese ships last visited the U.S. in 2006, when the Qingdao and the Hongzehu stopped in Pearl Harbor and San Diego for communications drills and search and rescue exercises off those coasts. The two nations last held a joint drill in 2012 during an anti-piracy exercise off Somalia.
China's military has said the drills build on a June commitment by President Barack Obama and Chinese leader Xi Jinping to strengthen ties.
The Navy said the visit is part of its ongoing effort to develop relationships with foreign navies to build trust, encourage cooperation, enhance transparency and avoid miscalculation.
Rear Adm. Rick Williams, commander of Navy Region Hawaii and Naval Surface Group Middle Pacific, said the two navies are showing their commitment to a stable world by working together and sharing aloha for the next several days.
"We are linked with you together in history, and we will be linked together in the future," Williams said about China.
Rear Adm. Wei Gang, chief of staff, North Sea Fleet and head of the delegation, said there's been steady progress in U.S.-China relations in recent years.
"This time, I, together with all the officers and the men of the task group, entrusted by our Chinese government and the people, sailed all the way across the broad Pacific and brought here to our American friends the friendly feelings of the Chinese people and the People's Liberation Army," Wei said through an interpreter.
During the drills, sailors will practice turning ships at sea, conduct searches and rescues, and send small boats back and forth between ships, Williams said. U.S. and Chinese helicopters will also work together.

€200 See Fees and Costs for full details.
This course introduces students to the visual culture of war, from the art of the World War I battlefields to the public memorials commemorating the Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s. The ongoing World War I centenary commemorations have revived public interest in the famous works of art it generated by the conflict, and through this course, students will learn how the art of World War I and that of the century that followed has shaped, reshaped – even misshaped – the public perception of war by engaging with key works of art, photography and popular art forms such as film and illustrated magazines. By focusing on key historical moments, students will gain insight to the social, political and cultural factors that prompted artists to create some of the most enduring, provocative images of the violent 20th century and since. Each class is divided into two sections – Lecture 1 provides an overview of the art of a specific conflict or historical moment, and Lecture 2 is a case study that enables students to focus in more detail on a key topic or figure related to the content of Lecture 1. In addition to class handouts, a reading list of materials accessible online will be provided.
Dr Ann Murray (History of Art), School of History. Email: annmurray@ucc.ie.

She has published several journal articles on war art and regularly presents her work at international conferences. She has lectured on a variety of subjects in the history of Western art and is currently writing a book on Otto Dix's war art.
This course will be useful to those with an interest in the history of art, modern history, visual culture, cultural history and war/military history. It will also be an ideal introduction to those considering further studies in these subjects, e.g. Certificate in Arts - History of Art. This is the only short course that provides a scholarly introduction to this important subject.
Applicants must be over 18 at course commencement.
The fee for this course is €200.

Please have a look at the following StackBlitz.
UPDATE (dynamic data)
In cases where the chart component receives dynamically changing data through an @Input() property, your component needs to implement the OnChange lifecycle hook.
See the following StackBlitz.

Not all Hungarians back their leader's campaign against Muslim migrants
GlobalPost
October 3, 2016 · 3:00 PM EDT
Updated on Oct. 4, 2016 · 10:30 AM EDT
By Andrew Connelly
Hungarian women leave voting booths at a polling station during a referendum on European Union migrant quotas in Veresegyhaz, Hungary, on Oct. 2.
Bernadett Szabo/Reuters
Update: On Nov. 8, Hungarian lawmakers rejected the prime minister's proposal to ban refugees from relocating to Hungary.
A peaceful demonstration brutally suppressed by an authoritarian regime desperate to cling to power. Armed conflict in the streets, and tanks and snipers claiming thousands of civilian lives. Hundreds of thousands of refugees pouring into Europe.
It could be Syria today, but that describes the events that unfolded in Hungary after the 1956 uprising against the Soviet-aligned government.
Yet despite that painful history, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban felt it necessary to immerse the country in a referendum over refugees fleeing armed conflict.
In Sunday's vote, Hungarians rejected European Union quotas for resettling refugees from entry countries Italy and Greece throughout the 28-nation bloc.
The referendum asked, "Do you want the European Union to be entitled to prescribe the mandatory settlement of non-Hungarian citizens in Hungary without the consent of parliament?" The result was an overwhelming 98 percent "no."
Having openly endorsed Donald Trump, Prime Minister Orban has border wall ideas of his own, and the government is hiring "border hunters" to enforce them. Now, he wants Sunday's popular vote to lay the groundwork for others wishing, as he puts it, to protect "Christian" Europe from Muslim migrants.
But here's one problem with his referendum victory: Little more than 40 percent of Hungary's 8 million-strong electorate actually voted — missing the 50 percent turnout needed to be valid under Hungarian law. And some who voted even decided to spoil their ballot in protest.
Take Terezia Feldmar, a 64-year-old teacher. Outside a polling station in the capital, Budapest, in the hilly residential area of Buda, she explained that she disagrees with both the government and the referendum on principle.
"I voted for 'yes' and 'no' at the same time — so I gave an invalid vote because the question itself doesn't make any sense. If I vote 'yes,' I contribute to the chance of the whole referendum being valid, and I don't want that," she said.
"I hope others do the same. We don't want to have this bad reputation around the world. We used to be proud of ourselves."
Feldmar was one of the 4-5 percent who invalidated their ballots. Although mainstream opposition parties were also boycotting the referendum, the dissent can be linked largely to a more esoteric political force.
During the 2006 elections, Gergely Kovacs, 36, was running a joke campaign promising voters free beer, eternal life and sea access to landlocked Hungary. This year, his liberal activist group the Two-Tailed Dog Party gained global notoriety for their satirical subversion of state-sponsored propaganda that featured alarmist and spurious claims linking refugees with terrorism and attacks against women.
One of the government's referendum campaign messages says: "Did you know the Paris attacks were committed by immigrants?"
Another reads: "Did you know that Brussels wants to settle a city's worth of migrants in Hungary?"
Kovacs' wry group counters those with their own wry claims.
"Did you know, that a tree could fall on your head?"
"Did you know, that if you repeat something a lot, it will seem right?"
Kovacs insists a big effort was needed to change the narrative away from the government's stridently xenophobic invective, which, by some estimates, cost $40 million in public funds.
"It is important to react to this as the government is bringing the evil out of the people, so millions of Hungarians spend their days hating refugees that are not even here. Hungarians are not racist: our government is racist," Kovacs said. "If any government in the world spent the same amount of money on this kind of campaign, people would start to believe the message."
This year hundreds of thousands of asylum seekers have arrived in Italy and Greece, and many of them remain stuck there.
But the Orban administration insists the EU doesn't get to obligate countries to take them.
While Hungary's referendum turnout failed to meet the 50 percent threshold, it was never actually legally binding. Orban is claiming that it was a "political" exercise, rather than a legal one. He says can amend the constitution to ensure that asylum matters are in the national purview.
The square outside Budapest's Gothic parliament building has been a venue for Hungary's extremes. On Saturday afternoon, the far-right Jobbik party hosted a rock concert where headbanging skinheads could be seen giving Nazi salutes. On Sunday, a rally by the green liberal party Dialogue for Hungary pumped out Wham! songs to the crowd as they waited for members to assemble. One of the Dialogue speakers, Reverend Balazs Szucs, feared that the vitriolic referendum campaign risked rehashing dark chapters of Hungary's World War II past.
"We are playing with fire here. I think Hungarian society has been hurt and wounded a lot by this campaign. We have these historical memories of when hate and fear killed hundreds of thousands of Hungarian people," he told PRI.
"Refugees are not our problem. Health is our problem. Education is our problem. And now fear is our problem."
On Sunday evening, members of the ruling Fidesz party clinked wine glasses and held a victory rally for a democratic exercise that failed to entice half of the electorate.
Zoltan Kovacs, chief spokesman for Prime Minister Orban, tried to put a positive spin on the low turnout. "The most important thing is that this is the most democratic form of expressing opinion of the electorate, and the most important result is always the clarity of the message," he said. "Should it be possible for any institution to go around the Hungarian parliament and decide about with whom should we live together in this country?"
Back in 1956, Hungarians were the subject of an unprecedented global resettlement program — refugees from Hungary were transported by trains, planes and boats to 37 countries. Spokesman Kovacs sniffed at the suggestion that there's a historical poignancy in his government holding an anti-refugee campaign now.
"Well, the comparison with the '56 revolution shows a lack of knowledge of history, an ignorance of history. This is a completely different story. At that time, Europe was divided," he replied.
But isn't Europe completely divided now?
"Right … but we are not doing this to divide Europe. We would like to unite Europe and defend Europe in the face of a challenge."
Orban hopes his political gamble unleashes a "tsunami of referendums" across the continent against the EU's refugee policies. But critics inside and outside Hungary would say the real challenge facing Europe is from governments like his own.

As the song goes " My future isn't a dream ." I love the song which brings me confidence when singing it every time . I believe that all our dreams can come true if we have courage to pursue them .When I was young my father always asked me what I would be in the future . Sometimes I found it very hard to give a certain reply .
What do I want to do when I'm older? Someone wants to be a doctor. Since they wants to help the one who is painful.Someone wants to be a basketball player because they are good at sport. Someone wants to be a writer and to make the writing. Someone wants to be a teacher because they like teaching children..
ExactlyI am not sure about the future. Who is able to give a definition to his future ? But I know clearly that those high buildings are based on solid foundation.As a law student all I can do is to learn my speciality well.I'll keep working on it and never give up .
My teacher says there 's only one kind of people that are truly successful : those who are brave enough to put up with hardships . Even if I won't achieve the goal I have no regrets for what I have done for I have struggled for my life .
What do I want to do when I'm older ? Someone wants to be a doctor. Someone wants to be a basketball player because they are good at sport. Someone wants to be a writer and to make the writing. Someone wants to be a teacher because they like teaching children.
I play the piano when I'm ten years old. Now I'm in grand five. I hope when I'm sixteen years old I can become grand eight. I'll be harder and harder to practise. Become a piano player is a hard job. But I believe I can do it.

"When the angels sinned, God did not spare them, but consigned them to the pit of hell to be kept for the judgment" We may appear as normal people, but we have one dark secret. We are angels kicked out of heaven for having an evil mind, emotions, and will. We all have been on this earth for more than 5000 years watching the earth destroy itself. Slowly and quietly all fourteen of us stayed away from men for a long time, But now in the year 2018 more of demons, angels, witches, and lastly werewolves. It's happened when the war in heaven took place which took place a long time ago, but let me tell you the story, Our story.
Pete needs to make a difference in his career, and to achieve that, he have to embark on a journey.
This is the story of two men, Bernard Duplomb, and Jean Paul Lefebvre, who meet after a lifetime apart. Sixty years on, they are strangers, but with something in common; a shared past, where they were part of a series of events, the consequences of which have remained unresolved for more than half a century. For Bernard, retirement is a disaster. Robbed of his work, which filled his days and occupied his mind, his thoughts turn inevitably to his childhood, and a series of disturbing memories, long suppressed. Slipping blindly into his sixties, Bernard gradually becomes more depressive, remote and insular, with alcohol as his principal companion. Thus, his marriage to Agnes finally crumbles, and she throws him out. Alone, homeless, floundering in despair, Bernard's instincts lead him back to the only other place he had called home; the isolated farm, deep in the Limousin countryside, where he had lived, with his parents, until the age of five. Here, alone and unloved, Bernard considers the prospect of ending his fruitless existence.

Q: Remove punctuation and stopwords from values of the dictionary I have a dictionary like this :
{'47': ['je', 'ne', 'comprendre', 'pas', 'le', 'vie', 'et', 'je', '?', 'suivre|être', 'perdre', 'aide', 'moi', 'stp', 'maman', 'je', 'suivre|être', 'perdre', 'tu', 'être', 'mon', 'seul', 'ami', 'et', 'je', 'te', 'aimer']})

I want to remove the stopwords for each values of this dictionary.
The stopwords file look like this:
{'avait', 'étants', 'se', 'sa', 'fûtes', 'serai', 'serais', 'as', 'aura', 'dans', 'suis', 'le', 'fusse', 'eue', 'serait', 'une', 'notre', 'nos', 'c', 'soyez', 'ait', 'soyons', 'eûtes', 'sois', 'au', 'que', 'étées', 'aurez', 'ma', 'd', 'ayant', 'ton', 'elle', 'à', 'avez', 'un', 'seras', 'avons', 'eusse', 'même', 'fussent', 'aurons', 'soit', 'ta', 'fusses', 'auront', 'fussions', 'te', 'm', 'auras', 'fus', 'l', 'êtes', 'sommes', 'étaient', 'fûmes', 'aux', 'ayons', 'aie', 'aviez', 'mon', 'vos', 'serons', 'serions', 'eut', 'sur', 'étantes', 'j', 'aies', 'avec', 'eusses', 'eurent', 'sont', 'ces', 'ayantes', 'furent', 'ce', 'étante', 'fut', 'y', 'aurions', 'lui', 'ayez', 'mais', 'seriez', 'des', 'eux', 'ayants', 'eu', 'me', 'est', 'en', 'il', 'ne', 'eûmes', 'mes', 'eussions', 'serez', 'seraient', 'aurais', 'fût', 'eût', 'par', 'moi', 'de', 'son', 'fussiez', 'n', 'ses', 'aurai', 'auraient', 'étiez', 's', 'toi', 'ai', 'étions', 't', 'nous', 'était', 'ont', 'du', 'vous', 'on', 'avais', 'leur', 'qui', 'la', 'avions', 'ayante', 'auriez', 'étés', 'qu', 'es', 'aient', 'pas', 'avaient', 'tu', 'eussiez', 'ou', 'tes', 'je', 'été', 'sera', 'votre', 'soient', 'pour', 'eus', 'étant', 'aurait', 'et', 'seront', 'eussent', 'étais', 'étée', 'eues'}

My code:
stopWords = set(stopwords.words('french'))
print(stopWords)
d_filtered = defaultdict(list)
for k, v in d_lemma.items():
    for p in v:
        if p.isalnum():
            if p not in stopWords:
                d_filtered[key] = v

print(d_filtered)

I have a problem with removing the stopwords and using isalnum() , I would want also to delete punctuation. How can I do that?

A: You can use a list comprehension to filter the stop words and non-alphabetic characters in a dict comprehension:
{k: [w for w in l if w not in stopWords and w.isalpha()] for k, l in d_lemma.items()}

This returns:
{'47': ['comprendre', 'vie', 'perdre', 'aide', 'stp', 'maman', 'perdre', 'être', 'seul', 'ami', 'aimer']}

Where You Can Find Cincinnati Bengals
Suitable now, the Bengals running game is doing practically nothing to dissuade pass rushers, and when it creates manageable down-and-distance situations, that just leads to a different challenge. The excellent news for the Bengals is that they face the Jets and Dolphins over the next two weeks, two teams without a Parsons-/Watt-caliber marquee edge rusher. The undesirable news is that the Jets are feisty and the Dolphins have replaced the Bengals as Team Bombs Away who can score from anyplace. Also, the Dolphins defense finished fourth in adjusted sack price in 2021 and proved in Week 1 that they are capable of shutting down a dysfunctional offense.
However, the Rams' former Pro Bowl left tackle, Andrew Whitworth, has remained firmly entrenched in retirement. Philadelphia Eagles quarterback and MVP candidate Jalen Hurts dropped some critical money on his offensive linemen when he gave them Louis Vuitton travel bags. Other quarterbacks in the league have offered their linemen gifts like scooters and golf clubs. Final year, Burrow gifted thirteen custom "iced out" G-Shock watches to his offensive line for Christmas.
His numbers via the air weren't as productive, nonetheless, finishing 22 of 37 passes for 315 yards and two interceptions. "He scored it on the appropriate side last evening. A couple of years ago it was on the left side," said Chuck Wilcox, who must know because he keeps his binoculars educated on him just about every play. "Each and every NFL player has a story and Mitchell is no diverse. All the issues you go by way of to get to that point." Over the Bengals' 4-game win streak, Burrow has ten total touchdowns, has been sacked five occasions, and has just two turnovers. In week eight against the Browns, he had two touchdowns, was sacked five times, and turned the ball over twice.
Something You Should Never Do With Cincinnati Bengals

While that may possibly not look like a major deal, maintain in mind that just a half-second separated the league's very best (Philadelphia, 2.six seconds) from worst (Pittsburgh, two.1 seconds) in that metric a year ago. So not obtaining that additional one-fifth of a second could be producing all the distinction.
Mike McDaniel located a few techniques to scheme up points again, which is a credit to his play-calling and thoughts.

In truth, a majority of the credit belongs to the Commanders' outstanding defense and the emerging getting trio of Terry McLaurin, Curtis Samuel and Jahan Dotson.
Evans could push Perine for the number two function behind Mixon with a strong showing in education camp and preseason. But when he got his opportunities at Michigan, he produced the most of them. He was a fast, quickly, and elusive player with the ball in his hands. Evans also showed to be an fantastic getting alternative out of the backfield.
In Cincinnati's Week 9 loss to the Cleveland Browns final season, Chase was matched up against cornerback Denzel Ward in the finish zone. But as an alternative of a touchdown on the game's initial drive, Ward jumped the route, intercepted quarterback Joe Burrow's pass and returned it 99 yards for a touchdown. The Bengals' 5 game win streak is their longest considering that 2015 when they opened the season with eight straight wins.
Methods To Get Cincinnati Bengals
Cincinnati went to the Super Bowl following the 1981 and 1988 seasons, and held the lead in the final minutes of each games before ultimately falling to the San Francisco 49ers. The Bengals won the division title again in 1973 with a record of ten-four, and finished the 1975 season at 11-3. Regrettably, the Pittsburgh Steelers won the division with a record of 12-two record and went on to win the Super Bowl. That doesn't mean too a great deal simply because injuries take place, teams get improved, and teams get worse, but this schedule does not look like a cakewalk at very first glance.

Strange Article Finds The Inaccurate Practices of Cincinnati Bengals
Cincinnati has won seven straight and nine of its final ten, heading into the new year on an perfect trajectory. Although every single group has currently clinched a playoff berth, there is plenty on the line in this a single. If Buffalo wins out, it is assured the coveted No. 1 seed in the AFC. If Cincinnati wins out and Kansas City loses a single of its final two games, the Bengals will own house-field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs.
CINCINNATI — The Bengals are a single of the NFL's most effective red zone offenses (68% TD price, fourth) and ESPN's Dan Orlovsky broke down the effectiveness this week. That's when vintage Brady took the field, captaining yet yet another comeback for the ages as he threw two touchdown passes in the final 3 minutes to lead the Buccaneers previous the New Orleans Saints, 17-16, on Monday Night Football. The penalty came after Tee Higgins — a single of the targets of Reid's trash talk — stretched the Bengals' lead to 14-3 just after catching a short touchdown pass early in the second quarter. Reid jokingly forgot the names of Higgins and Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst in the days top up to the game. There is no query, from a competition standpoint, the Ravens have a substantially a lot easier path than the Bengals, but Cincinnati is red hot while the Ravens are essentially the Minnesota Vikings of the AFC. Now, with Tyler Huntley below center they will have a tougher road ahead to keep pace with the Bengals.

Obviously I've moved to this far superior blog which is easier for me to use but it bothered me that over four years worth of entries were no longer available. Officers were able to retrieve the data, and it is all archived here so people can search for specific details if they require.

Q: Adwords and Form Tracking Im not an expert in Google Tracking and Adwords and i had a request where a client wants to track the people who submit a contact form on a website, coming from an adwords ad.
So someone lands on a specific site on the clients site via Adwords, then fills out the contact form on that site. Now they want to know how many people coming from adwords ads, are willing to submit the form.
This seems to be very obvious, and i thought there might be already a solution for this.
Conversion Tracking already happens when the form is submitted, but they cannot comprehend whether someone submitted the form coming from adwords or or not.
I´ve been told to save the GET-Parameter from the Adwords-Link inside the database, the website is running on, every time the form is submitted. That doesnt seem to be the right way. Also there are some security issues with that.
Can anyone give some advice, how this could be achieved.
I hope i explained that right.
Thanks in advance.

A: If you need to save source into DB:
Simpliest way migth be parsing UTM parameters and populate the hidden fields in the form, so you know that user came from AdWords or any other source.
If you are using automatic tagging (which I would recommend), you are going after GLCID parameter, if manual, it's just utm_source.
I would do tracking from all sources (not only AdWords) - it might happen that you also need to know if user came through Facebook, LinkedIn article or so.
More on tracking sources into database here and here. More on AdWords tagging here.
If you only need to know if people from AdWords submit forms (=converts):
Chances are, that you already know. See Google Analytics. Filter out segment of people who did goal of sumbmiting form and see Aquisition -> All traffic.
More on Google Analytics here

A: You should check and make sure you have auto-tagging enabled. The best way to do this in Google Analytics go into the Admin > Property column > Product Linking section > Adwords Linking.
Once you have Adwords and Analytics linked up simply go back to the Reporting tab and navigate to Acquisition > Adwords > Campaigns as shown here
If you have properly set up your goals in Analytics you can use the Conversion filter to select the goal you want to view and this will show you all goal conversions that came from Adwords.

Rambam visits Hebron
The prolific and influential Jewish scholar considered his visit to the Cave of Machpela a personal holiday.
(IMAGE: A page from Rambam's illustrated Guide of the Perplexed, Barcelona, circa 1347, from the Royal Danish Library, Copenhagen.)
On the 9th of Cheshvan 4926 / October 24, 1165 Maimonides, one of the most one of the most prolific and influential Torah scholars in the Jewish world visited Hebron. Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon, known by the Hebrew acronym Rambam, was a medieval doctor and philosopher whose writings are studied by Jews throughout the world today.
Maimonides discussed his journey in a letter to Rabbi Yaphet bar Eliyahu the Judge.
The letter was printed in the preface to his commentary on the Talmudic tractate of Rosh Hashana and also in collections of the Rambam's letters.
…And on the first day of the week, the ninth day of the month of MarCheshvan, I left Jerusalem for Hebron to kiss the graves of my forefathers in the Cave of Machpela. And on that very day I stood in the Cave and I prayed, praised be G-d for everything. And these two days, the sixth (when he prayed on Temple Mount in Jerusalem) and the ninth of Mar-Cheshvan I vowed to make as a special holiday and in which I will rejoice with prayer, food and drink. May the Lord help me to keep my vows."
His visit was part of a long and arduous journey to Israel that included miraculously surviving a sea voyage and a dangerous ride from Akko to Jerusalem.
Once in Jerusalem, Maimonides visited the Temple Mount before travelling south to Hebron.
The Crusaders ruled the land at that time and many holy sites were accessible, although with restrictions.
The Tomb of the Patriarchs and Matriarchs looked much the same then as it does today. The Muslims conquered the region and converted it into the Mosque of Ibrahim. But their Christian adversaries later triumphed and converted the site into the Church of St. Abram where a Jewish synagogue operated alongside.
The church operated in the Hall of Isaac and Rebecca where vaulted ceiling were added, still visible today. The synagogue operated in the opened central hall of the building. Today it is still possible to identify the few indications that remain of this medieval synagogue.
In 1120 Christian monks succeed in discovering the entrance to the underground Cave of Machpela inside the complex, where the graves of the founding fathers and mothers of monotheism are located. The Muslims had previously blocked this entrance.
Access to the site was possible for both Christians and Jews until the renewed Muslim occupation about 100 years later in approximately 1260.

Lovely! You paint such beautiful pictures with your words, Jessica. AND your camera!
I too love your picture, Jessica, and the poem takes us readers on a beautiful journey through the year: "looking glass of pages open".
Beautiful imagery Jessica, thanks for the journey!
Wow. So many beautiful lines, but I particularly like "Fiery tangerine kites fill October trees." What a picture that conjures up! Thanks for the lovely poem.
Appreciations for taking me on this journey, Jessica.
the refrain "a looking glass of pages open" shivers me with its beauty.
Jessica, this is just gorgeous! I love the repetition and especially this image: "Fiery tangerine kites fill October trees."
Gorgeous! I want your window.

Someone I know was unsaved when he got married.
Now that he is saved his soon to be ex-wife wants nothing to do with him.
but she only wants out of the marriage.
One thing that I can tell you to get a picture of how bad it is.
are code words of his for affair / strip bar.
would have wrapped his car around a tree just to end the pain and suffering.
and salvation for his soon to be ex-wife (don't know her name sorry).
Holding John before the Lord for the salvation of his marriage. Praying that his wife would come to the saving knowledge of Christ.
Praying for strength and wisdom for John as he daily wrestles with this dilemma.
Remember, big things happen because little things are ignored.
John confessed that he thinks that his ex maybe possessed.
But he is sure that she is consumed by hate.
that called themselves a Christian.

'Red Eye': A Fly-By-Night Thriller
Look closely and you'll notice an interesting paradigm shift happening in Hollywood. In the past, the unwritten rules dictated that in order to scare up an audience, an edge-of your seat thriller needed an R-rating, replete with the requisite blood, violence, profanity and nudity necessary to pull in the young male demographic. Conversely, the longstanding belief was that in order for a comedy to maximize its box office potential, PG-13 was as far as it could go. A little mild profanity was acceptable, but no sex or bloody corpses, thank you.
There have always been exceptions to the rule, most notably 1998's "There's Something About Mary," which until it was supplanted last week by "Wedding Crashers" was the highest grossing R-rated comedy ever.
However, spurred by the desire to lure teenage girls (and women of all ages, for that matter), the thriller genre has been flooded with profitable PG-13 offerings; "The Ring" and its sequel, "The Grudge," "The Village," and "Secret Window" to name just a few. Likewise, studio executives noted the sales and rental tallies for the "unrated" (more explicit) versions of recent comedies on DVD, and decided to try to pump up the box office by releasing raunchier versions in theaters too.
An excellent example of this change of heart happened this past week with the simultaneous arrival of two movies in theaters nationwide. One, "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," is a decidedly R-rated comedy about, well, you figure it out. (Family newspaper etiquette applies.) The other, "Red Eye," is a PG-13 thriller directed by king of horror Wes Craven.
With "Red Eye," Craven has fashioned a suitably entertaining contrivance that works well– particularly in its first hour and 15 minutes before it runs out of steam (and brains). Rachel McAdams ("The Notebook," "Wedding Crashers") stars as Lisa Reisert, the young manager of an upscale Miami hotel who's flying home from her grandmother's funeral in Texas. Brian Cox, ("The Rookie," both 'Bourne' movies) a good actor sporting a bad dye job, is Lisa's dad. More specifically, he's the potential victim of an assassin's bullet– if his daughter refuses to cooperate on her end with a plan to off the Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security and his family. Cillian Murphy ("28 Days Later," "Batman Begins") is Jackson Rippner, the man with that deadly plan who's at once charming and threatening too.
The film's setup is swift and solid. The depiction of present-day air travel will make you wince if you're a frequent flyer, and soon after their plane takes off, Jackson reveals his intentions to Lisa and the tension begins to mount. Craven makes good use of Carl Ellsworth's smart script and his own talent for framing a scene to ratchet up the suspense. (Have you noticed how the guys who got their start making horror movies always know how to point the camera just so? See Sam Raimi's work for further proof.) Indeed, as long as the plane is in the air, the story flies too. But once the landing gear comes down, so does the film's momentum.
It's difficult to describe exactly how the film's ending proves to be a letdown without giving away too many of the particulars. Suffice to say that if you're a fan of films of this genre, you won't find it hard to predict what's going to happen next before it happens onscreen.
Maybe the "uncut" DVD will have a better ending.
PG-13: For some intense sequences of violence, and language.

Violence in them old blues
Geeshie Wiley is gonna slit his throat then look down in his face. Pegleg Howell is gonna cut her throat and drink her blood like wine. The Memphis Jug Band is gonna beat her with a singletree. Bertha Henderson was stabbed in the back and had to blow her attacker away. Black Ivory King sings about that ice pick woman of his. In "Cairo" Henry Spaulding sings about those mean and vicious women as does Lucille Bogan in "Boogie Alley." Then there's all those prison blues. Now I'm personally not a violent person and have never been in prison. I do however find that stuff intriquing. So unlike everything else. Who other than those old blues cats were singing lyrics like those I mentioned above? When I listen to Ramblin' Thomas or Kid Prince Moore singin' bout back biting.....hahaha! Alice Moore is black and yes she's evil. Ya gotta love that stuff, it's a whole different world, and when I light those candles/incense and kick back in my Fortress of Solitude (ok ok garage) listening to Papa Harvey & Long Cleve singin' bout that bad man Stagger O' Lee it's as if I've gone off into another dimension. Bessie in Sing Sing Prison. Sylvester Weaver is way down below. Rabbit thinks that sometimes she ought to be buried alive. Bob Campbell just needs a shotgun, give Skip his 32-20. Amazing stuff!

Re: Violence in them old blues
If you read Stephen Calt's biography of Skip James, you realise it wasn't just in the songs, but for real! Sadly, extreme violence seems to have been part of the culture then.
I suppose your fascination with the subject is no different to harmless old ladies who are hooked on whodunnits.

No doubt it was very alive and real, the deal is that it was able to make it onto a record. Cutting throats is pretty graphic stuff for the audiences of the 1920's/30's. I doubt I have anything in common with harmless (or otherwise) old ladies Just something I found interesting. Hard to believe some censorship whatever allowed this in 1926...
So unlike everything else. Who other than those old blues cats were singing lyrics like those I mentioned above?
Modern day rappers? Or at least the rappers from 10 years ago. I'm afraid I haven't kept up with the genre as much as I should have.
Mr.OMuck
Its easy to dismiss the violence as colorful exaggeration of the street cred, boasting variety and not acknowledge it for the chronicle of brutality that it contains (along with the other thing). Extreme poverty and feelings of hopelessness seem to be the midwives of violence, especially domestic violence. That music of enduring power and beauty managed to arise under such circumstances is part of its mystique and appeal.
My loathings are simple: stupidity, oppression, crime, cruelty, soft music.

I'm a white guy who grew up in central Cali, while far from rich we got by just fine. Never saw a day I lacked for anything. My parents listened to Hank Williams and Patsy Cline and other country artists as I was growing up. As a teenager it was The Stones etc. It wasn't until I discovered them old blues that I began to hear about ice picks and shotguns and back biting..haha! Totally different deal. I dig it annd yes it is part of the mystique/appeal.

There's a strong train of thought among the ethnomusicologist types that many of the violent images are not really directed at the singer's wives, girlfriends and poker or craps opponents, but are metaphors directed at the white authority structure. So when, in Crow Jane, the singer, with incredible cheer in his voice, sings about shooting his woman just to see her fall, he's not really talking about his woman but his boss or his landlord. Makes a lot of sense, although the pervasiveness of these images also implies a routine to the violence that I think is unusual today even among the many, if not all, of the socioeconomically disadvantaged.
There's a strong train of thought among the ethnomusicologist types that many of the violent images are not really directed at the singer's wives, girlfriends and poker or craps opponents, but are metaphors directed at the white authority structure.
I don't necessarily buy that. I think a better analogy for lines like "I whipped my woman with a single tree/You ought to hear her holler 'Please don't murder me'" is Jackie Gleason as Ralph Kramden in the Honeymooners. When he was annoyed at his wife he used to shake his fist at her chin and say "To the moon, Alice!", meaning "I'm going to punch you so hard you're going to land on the moon". It was a laugh line, though it's hard for us to comprehend that today. Humor doesn't necessarily translate well across eras and cultures.
Lines that occur in an obviously non-humorous context I see as more the result of the fact that violence in all it's forms was so much more prevalent and, in a way, acceptable in society as a whole and especially in the segment of society that the singers in question came from. See O'Muck's post for that. To my mind, that's why modern rap lyrics are a good correlation.

I think modern rap is an obvious correlation. However, consider the available forms of entertainment of that time period. If you were illiterate it would be limited to story telling and music. Now consider the spectrum of entertainment options we have today: slasher films, murder mysteries, websites depicting grotesque imagery, Steven King novels... Even Law & Order SVU makes me cringe.
I believe that when you look at what we do to entertain ourselves it is apparent that we have had a long time love affair with violence.

Not limited to blues either. Those old-time fellers were frequently singing about strangling or poisoning women and throwing them in rivers and such, and killing each other and themselves of course. While the roots of such stuff reach across the Atlantic, there was still a bit of a fascination with it.
Many of the violent phrases in the blues are of course simply repeated on down through the tradition. Geeshie Wiley's line, for instance, while one of the great ones, I'm pretty sure appears elsewhere in an earlier recording but I can't for the life of me remember where. Peg Leg's "drink your blood like wine" also appears elsewhere in several guises (though not necessarily earlier - I don't recall). So some of this as well is probably people recognizing a good grim line when they hear it and saying, "I'm gonna steal that one."
Then there were the razor-totin' stereotypes. Some of those pop songs celebrating the violent urban underworld were no doubt influential in some ways as well. Not to mention the bully of the town.
Then I also wonder how many are sexual metaphors. Back bitin' obviously is.
Quote from: Kokomo O on September 24, 2009, 05:47:40 AM
There is no doubt that that black world back in the day did see a lot of black on black violence. In his book "Satchmo" Louis Armstrong talks about growing up in the black world of New Orleans. Lot of violence! Hookers, pimps, gamblers, druggies and simply lowlifes were in abundance anywhere we saw a large % of blacks living. Crime was all about. As anyone who has a knowledge of this at all is well aware of, the attitude was..."as long as they keep it among themselves"....by the local authorities. I believe it was a hard life with violence playing a role so when those old blues cats sung about it it had nothing to do with any sort metaphors directed at anyone. They were singing about the life they experienced.
Good catch, Songster! I would imagine that graphically violent lyrics then are in some cases equivalent to modern slasher films. Or Stephen King novels.
And certainly if you go as far back as you can in folk song, you'll still find plenty of men sticking their swords through their wife's/girlfriend's/rival's heart and pinning him/her against the wall. It's a universal theme.

Certainly the "pop" music of Kurt Weill was somewhat concurrent, and I don't think he was alone in his depuction of violence. Not to mention the incredibly gory depictions in early silent movies by Griffith and Eisenstein, et al. I mean, the blues era was somewhat concurrent with the Great War, one of the bloodiest to date at that time. The world was a very violent place in the early 20th century.
And I've always thought "whip my woman with a singletree" was sexual boasting, a single tree being a long straight pole that extends from the front of a wagon between the flanks of two beasts of drayage (hmm?). Rather large and cumbersome to use for beating someone. And it's not hard to imagine that "Oh baby, don't you murder me (with that big thing)" was sexual play. I mean, the response line is "Same thing" referring to sex throughout the song.
BTW a forum search on the word "violence" will bring many similar discussions over the years if you are interested.

See my previous post. I don't think blacks had a monopoly on intra-racial violence. Have you ever read any turn of the century depictions of life in NYC? It's quite possible that inter-racial violence, white on black, could have been far more common. Using the lyrics of songs to conjecture the actual everyday experience of a culture is somewhat specious without other data to back it up.

HomeReligionI'm Sorry For All My False Teachings & Church Practices - Pastor Benny Hinn Apologizes.
Precious Eze's Blog January 09, 2023
Benny Hinn.
Pastor Benny Hinn, a well-known Israeli Christian televangelist, posted a video on Facebook in which he apologized to his followers for giving them wrong information about how to get rich, plant seeds, and sell the gospel.
The pastor says that he doesn't want to be turned away from heaven on the last day while asking all Christians to forgive him. He then said that he had been trying to say something for a long time but couldn't.
Pastor Benny Hinn says in the video, "The body must be out of the way for people to get to Heaven on the last day." This is a message that makes you feel good. I'm sorry to say that prosperity has gone a little crazy this time, and I'd like to fix my own theology about prosperity gospels, planting seeds, and making money off the gospel. When I read the Bible 20 years ago, I didn't see it the same way I do now. "My father-in-was law's one that the magazine would usually publish."
After marrying his daughter, I got it as a gift. It was a way to make money off of the gospel. When we sell these things for money, we hurt the Holy Spirit. "I'm done with the prosperity gospel and making the gospel into a business," he said. "This is the first time I've ever said this, and I don't care what other people think of me anymore." I know that many people won't invite me anymore, but that's okay with me. On the last day, I don't want to be turned down. Don't give if you're not doing it because you love Jesus.
"Giving makes me feel sick to my stomach, and now that I'm done with it, I don't want to hear anything about planting seeds." I'm sorry that I've been teaching wrong for so many years. Please forgive me and don't listen to what I say about getting rich and planting seeds.

JustNick – tagged "Leaves 2"
Good morning everyone! Nicole here to let you know all about a team up that we will be sharing, starting tomorrow, on our blog with the team of Stuck?! Sketches!
Laura has created a great sketch for some of our teams to both use, and we have combined some of our JustNick cut files with that same sketch for some fun results!
I played along with the sketch too and thought I would share a preview of that today. A sketch can truly do wonders for my mojo, and adding in some cut files, make a page come together quite easily too!
I used the new Rustic Leaf Frame cut file for this page, and you can see it makes a large impact on the page. Once I die cut it from the patterned paper, I simply added a few pieces of green behind the leaves and voila!
I added in some popped up diecut stickers and enamel dots around the frame area. I love combining the die cut frame with products I can easily get from a manufacturer!
I also die cut the same leaves and stems out of vellum in a slightly smaller size and tucked those in around the frame to add some softness to the ring area.
Now, I am sure you will be able to do wonders with this same sketch! Come back tomorrow to see the sketch and what Laureen did with it! Plus, you will get a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to our store too! A win -win I think!
