Many secularist and humanist organizations celebrate February 12 as Darwin Day, a day set aside to honor Charles Darwin and his legacy. But is Darwinism science? And does it have a rightful place in the church? Let's hear from several ICR scientists and scholars on this issue.


Co-op on the EDGE is a new approach to co-op for Sheridan students looking to build their own ventures. Students have access to mentorship, training sessions and a collaborative community of entrepreneurs to help them develop their own ventures – and receive co-op credit.
FloTexting has come a long way in the last few months. What's particularly interesting is that the progress made wasn't quite like the progress that would have been expected. My opportunity with EDGE has introduced me to an environment that allowed, perhaps even required, me to look beyond the specifics of my program with Sheridan in order to embody the mindset of a successful business leader. This shift could be described as an ongoing sequence of growing pains, and I've enjoyed the challenge.
FloTexting has now formed a business partnership with EDGE client Feely Piano School, who will use our Daily Operations Support Package to send homework notifications to students, get their feedback, assist in their learning and more. EDGE is serving the purpose I hoped it would from my initial enlistment; connecting me with people that can carry this vision forward.
These last few months have been a really pleasurable and educational experience for myself. I've learned various aspects about business that I wouldn't have known had I not been a part of this program – such as social enterprises and the business model canvas. The program has taught me two things: my business is not JUST my product/service, and does not revolve around just one customer.
I have been fortunate to be able to develop my own venture while also meeting my co-op requirements at Sheridan. The last couple of months in the Leap Labs and mentorship sessions have been very rewarding as I've been solidifying my business plan and learning more about my target market through in-person surveys.
Currently, I am working with Sheridan students on my marketing and CRM plans to increase sales. These learnings will help me differentiate in the hyper-competitive environment of clothing retail. As well, I have been able to network with industry professionals and share details about my venture with the Honourable Mayor Bonnie Crombie, MP Omar Alghabara and Minister of Innovation, The Honourable Navdeep Bains. These are opportunities new entrepreneurs would have difficulty finding themselves and the support from EDGE has been instrumental in this learning period.
Since I've started, EDGE has helped me further define my business ideas with each assignment and group meeting. I have conducted surveys with hundreds of potential customers to find out what they want, and used templates to define key points in my business and challenge areas of its operation.
Additionally, I was provided a mentor who assisted myself and the other entrepreneurs with 1-on-1 meetings. These meetings helped with determining focus areas for development, problem definition, and general marketability of our ventures.
Originally I had started with multiple business concepts, but EDGE has helped me narrow it down to one, and I am now focusing my efforts on creating a social media platform for avid music fans.
If you are a co-op eligible student at Sheridan, applications for Co-op on the EDGE are open for the Summer 2019 term. Learn more and apply today.

The Nature of Evil in William Shakespeare's Hamlet
In Hamlet
Society has been preoccupied by the idea of great and wicked given that the development of civilization and, just as humankind has actually evolved with time, so has the definition of evil. Evil was initially used to describe somebody who positioned themselves above others and it wasn't till the Old and Middle English period that wicked became associated with wrong-doing. As time passed, the meaning continued to become increasingly more specific up until it reached its modern definition: "extreme moral wickedness.
(www. etymonline. com/index. php? term=evil) However, what one eventually defines as evil depends upon one's personal experiences, context, and culture. For instance, during The second world war, the Americans believed that dropping an atomic bomb on Hiroshima was an act of great as it ended conflict with the Japanese. On the other hand, the Japanese viewed it as an act of evil as the battles led to the deaths of thousands of people.
This shows that excellent and evil can not always be viewed as just black or white, however likewise as shades of grey making it hard to label characters in different literary works, especially those of William Shakespeare. The obscurity of evil in William Shakespeare's Hamlet forces viewers to translate each character's ideas, actions, and character in order to put them appropriately on the gradient of evil. Despite one's personal idea of evil, Claudius can be viewed as a villain from lots of viewpoints.
He continuously performs actions with destructive intent and expresses real love just for himself. The very first and most important act that Claudius devotes is the murder of his own sibling, which he does to acquire the crown of Denmark, as explained by King Hamlet's ghost: Now, Hamlet, hear. 'T is provided that, oversleeping my orchard, A snake stung me– so the whole ear of Denmark Is by a forged procedure of my death Rankly abus 'd– but know, thou noble youth, The snake that did sting thy father's life Now wears his crown. (I. v. 34-40)
The ghost's speech shows the true nature of Claudius' evil as he enables himself to eliminate his own bro. Nevertheless, this is not to state that Claudius does not understand the nature of his sins. Following 'The Murder of Gonzago', a test of his conscience established by Hamlet, Claudius feels overwhelmed with regret and self disgust; he attempts to repent for his sins and expresses that he understands the magnitude of what he has actually done: O, my offense is rank, it smells to paradise; It hath the primal oldest curse upon't– A bro's murder. (III. iii. 37-39)
This is the first and only time that the readers or viewers see Claudius serving as a typical person and revealing or acknowledging his emotions. This is very essential as many people believe that repentance results in mercy. Nevertheless, Claudius finds himself unable to effectively do so as he concerns understand that he does not feel regret for what he has done considering that he continues to reap the benefits of his deed: Hope can I not, Though inclination be as sharp as will, My more powerful regret defeats my strong intent … My fault is previous– but O, what form of prayer
Can serve my turn? 'Forgive me my foul murder?' That can not be, considering that I am still possess 'd Of those effects for which I did the murder– My crown, mine own aspiration, and my queen. … My words fly up, my ideas stay below. Words without thoughts never to heaven go. (III. iii. 36-40, 51-55, 97-98) If Claudius had successfully repented for his sins, he would no longer be identified as an evil character. He is, nevertheless, not able to do so. Regardless of Claudius' callousness, the reality that he even attempts to repent is honourable.
However, by continuing to control, ruin, and murder he voids any possibility of forgiveness. He uses his "boy" as a scapegoat by focusing all of the unfavorable attention on him and hence avoids unfavorable attention himself, marries his bro's widow, turns Hamlet's childhood pals against him, and eventually causes the deaths of all the primary characters in the play. He utilizes his charm and political power to release increasing quantities of chaos showing that, "One might smile, and smile, and be a villain!" (I. v. 07) In the end, it is Claudius who is responsible for trapping otherwise innocent characters in a chain of deceptiveness, deceit, and damage which is escapable just by death. Hamlet is the primary victim of Claudius' malevolent deeds, triggering a dramatic shift in his nature. He ends up being a slave to misery and feels the need to right the wrongs in his life, specifically the murder of his father. Upon hearing the fact about the nature of his father's death, Hamlet becomes an essential part in the cyclical pattern of evil as he vows to take revenge on his uncle, Claudius: Rush me to know't, that I with wings as speedy
As meditation or the thoughts of love May sweep me to my revenge. (I. v. 29-31) Although Hamlet is "a victim" of Claudius' deeds, the reader is unable to sustain any sensation of increased pathos as soon as he seeks justice by exacting vengeance. However, one must think about the typical idea processes of the time. It wasn't up until recently that society began to view retributive justice as unacceptable and morally incorrect. For that reason, Hamlet would have been justified in his efforts to get vengeance for his daddy's murder.
In addition, getting revenge gives Hamlet no individual gain other than the redemption of his daddy's name, while Claudius kills with power in mind. In addition, Claudius is accountable for the death of an innocent while Hamlet is only interested in eliminating those who are guilty, especially his uncle. Hamlet even takes preventative measures, such as arranging the performance of 'The Murder of Gonzago', to show his suspicions and keep a clean conscience: I'll have groundsMore relative than this– the play's the thingWherein I'll capture the conscience of the King. II. ii. 603-605) By attempting to figure out whether Claudius is guilty, Hamlet reveals that he is attempting to cause the least damage possible and does not wish to eliminate those who do not deserve it. A genuinely evil individual would not care whether their victim was innocent, as is the case with Claudius. Unfortunately, Hamlet becomes tangled up in his thoughts and emotions and causes more issues than he intends to; primarly when Hamlet and his mother are talking and Hamlet attacks Polonius who is hiding behind an arras.
The attack eliminates Polonius, who Hamlet at first believed was Claudius. While some might consider this to be evil, Hamlet acknowledges the event as an awful accident: A bloody deed. Practically as bad, excellent mother, As kill a king and wed with his bro … Thou wretched, rash intruding fool, farewell. I took thee for thy better. Take thy fortune. (III. iv. 28-29, 31-32) By comparing the murder of Polonius to the murder of his father, Hamlet acknowledges that what he has done is incorrect but regrettably this does not enable him to escape the repercussions which follow.
Eliminating Polonius is the most significant error that Hamlet makes in the play, turning Laertes against him and causing the death of both himself and Ophelia. Although Hamlet can be seen as unnaturally cruel often times throughout the play, he is not evil. Hamlet is just attempting to play the cards he has actually been handled life. Throughout Hamlet, Laertes is referred to as an extremely devoted and noble gentleman. Unfortunately for Laertes, he suffers the same fate as poor Hamlet. He loses his dad and his sibling, simply as Hamlet loses his daddy and mom.
Following his dad's death, Laertes feels the requirement to eliminate to promote his family's name. Initially Laertes thinks the killer to be Claudius but when Claudius encourages him otherwise, Laertes moves his attention towards Hamlet. In order to get Laertes to do this, Claudius manipulates him into believing that Hamlet is the root of all evil and should be looked after. Laertes concurs to do so and even contributes his own ideas: I will do't. And for that function, I'll anoint my sword. I bought an unction of mountebank So mortal however dip a knife in it, Where it draws blood, no cataplasm so unusual,
Collected from all simples that have virtue Under the moon, can save the thing from death That is but scratch 'd withal. I'll touch my point With this contagion, that if I gall him slightly, It might be death. (IV. vii. 139-148) Similarly to Hamlet, it is not wicked that gets the best of Laertes, but his emotions. His anger and unhappiness trigger him to respond considerably and he makes decisions at a time where he is unable to think straight. Laertes later pertains to understand this as he reflects upon his strategy to kill Hamlet: And yet it is practically against my conscience. V. ii. 288) At this point in the play, it ends up being evident that Laertes' "evil" is not of his own production however of Claudius'. It is not just Laertes who recognizes this however Hamlet too, allowing the males to see the similarities in their scenarios and say sorry to one another: He is simply serv 'd. It is a poison temper 'd by himself. Exchange forgiveness with me, noble Hamlet. Mine and my dad's death come not upon thee, Nor thine on me. (V. ii. 321-325) Unlike Claudius, the males are forgiven for their sins and are able to die as heroes instead of villains.
This final act of nobility is what really defines the characters of Hamlet and Laertes, not their mishaps. William Shakespeare's Hamlet exhibits how it is not what a character does however who a character is that figures out whether they are truly wicked or not. Nevertheless, that is not to state that the character's do not come down with temptation or evil. It is the way that they manage themselves once they have done so that permits spectators an insight into their true nature. As Hamlet states, "There is absolutely nothing either good or bad, but thinking it makes it so." (II. ii. 245-246)

A: You might have already found the issue by now but here is what I've found.
There are several FileStream open that are never used. Streams emc,eqc,fmc,fqc are open at each time the function is called, only 1 is being Disposed, that's why on the second call some file are still being used by another process
To make this easier to debug, I always start to remove code duplication, Basically your function is having 4 times the same code block identical at 99% except the inputStream source.
From your code, I've also noticed that this code block will always return a null inputStream
...
using (Stream inputStream = eqc) {
MemoryStream memoryStream = inputStream as MemoryStream; //eqc is a FileStream, it is not castable as MemoryStream, This is always null
...

Solution
Here is a small refactor of your function. I removed unused variables and I've moved variable definition closer to the usage. You will also notice that there is no if () statement remaining (Directory.CreateDirectory() will not throw an exception if directory already exist).
My rule for better code : Remove as many [if] as possible, it will reduce code paths and chances of errors.
public ActionResult EditPersonalityTest([Bind(Include = "ID,EnglishProefficiencyBefore")] Recipient recipient, CohortSubscriptions cohortSubscriptions)
{
    var property = db.CohortSubscriptions.Where(x => x.ID == cohortSubscriptions.ID).FirstOrDefault();

    property.EnglishProefficiencyBefore = cohortSubscriptions.EnglishProefficiencyBefore;

    db.Entry(property).State = EntityState.Modified;
    db.SaveChanges();

    Registrations registration = db.Registrations.Where(x => x.ID == property.RegistrationId).FirstOrDefault();
    recipient.Name = registration.FirstName + " " + registration.LastName;
    recipient.Email = registration.Email;

    //Array to map campus name to FileNamePart
    var campusNameMap = new[] {
        new { PreferredCampus = "Montreal", FileNamePart = "Montreal" },
        new { PreferredCampus = "Québec", FileNamePart = "Quebec" },
    };

    //Generate pdfDocumentPath based on isEnglish and registration.PreferredCampus
    string campusFileNamePart = campusNameMap.Single(campus => campus.PreferredCampus == registration.PreferredCampus).FileNamePart;
    string languageFileNamePart = IsEnglishLocale(registration) ? "English" : "French";

    //Use only 1 inputStream
    using (FileStream inputStream = new FileStream(Server.MapPath($"~/Documents/Contrats {campusFileNamePart} {languageFileNamePart}.pdf"), FileMode.Open))
    {
        MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
        inputStream.CopyTo(memoryStream);

        string directorypath = Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/Files/");
        Directory.CreateDirectory(directorypath);

        string serverpath = $"{directorypath}{recipient.Name.Trim()}.pdf";
        System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(serverpath, memoryStream.ToArray());

        docusignContract(serverpath, recipient.Name, recipient.Email);

        System.IO.File.Delete(serverpath);
    }

    return View("ConfirmEditSubscriptions");
}

I hope it will work for you.

Arsenal will be looking to make it back-to-back wins this evening when they travel to Vicarage Road to face Javi Gracia's Watford.
The Gunners have plenty of reason to be confident having dispatched Napoli with ease in the Europa League last Thursday.
But Unai Emery will not be taking Watford lightly having seen Arsenal just scrape by them when the teams met in September.
An 81st-minute Craig Cathcart own goal broke the deadlock in the autumn, with Mesut Ozil on hand to double Arsenal's advantage moments later.
Emery will be determined for Arsenal to get one over on Watford again as they seek to return to the Premier League's top four.
However, he will be without five first-team stars due to a combination of suspension and injuries.
Sokratis Papastathopoulos is set to serve the first of a two-match ban having received 10 top-flight bookings this season.
Hector Bellerin, Rob Holding and Danny Welbeck, meanwhile, are definitely out due to long-term injuries.
Granit Xhaka will be assessed before the trip to Watford having suffered with a left groin problem of late.
Emery, though, will not risk the Switzerland international, who Express Sport understands is being eyed up by Inter Milan.
Xhaka could make a comeback on Thursday night when Arsenal resume their Europa League exploits.
And, with that quarter-final second leg in mind, Emery will ring the changes for the visit to Watford.
Bernd Leno will resume goalkeeping duties having made way for Petr Cech against Napoli.
Mohamed Elneny and Shkodran Mustafi will come into central defence in place of Papastathopoulos and Laurent Koscielny respectively.
Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Nacho Monreal and Sead Kolasinac will make up the rest of Arsenal's back five.
Matteo Guendouzi is poised to replace Lucas Torreira and partner Aaron Ramsey at the base of midfield.
Ozil will be among the substitutes, with Alex Iwobi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan back in the team to provide ammunition.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is in line for a rest at Watford, with Alexandre Lacazette leading the line.
Arsenal are sixth in the Premier League following Manchester United's win over West Ham on Saturday evening.
But they can leapfrog United and Chelsea and return to the top four if they beat Watford.

This web design tutorial is not a software manual. It is volume that provides theories, processes, and a tutorial view of industry standard Web applications. Some of the processes are worked out on paper or in a word processing program. Some processes require using graphical or Web design software. For many of these, I provide step by step tutorials so that you can try to execute the techniques on your own. Obviously, you can't learn every conceivable application in one web design tutorial. The tools mentioned in this web design tutorial can be amended to suit your particular skill level or the platform and tool set used in your company.
Menu commands will be in bold and will follow this form Menu > Sub-Menu > Sub-Menu. This web design tutorial uses Windows PC commands as a default.
Hopefully, this first web design lesson has laid the foundation for your understanding what a Web portfolio is and what it does. The Web portfolio is an electronic portfolio which is specifications and context are variably defined from discipline to discipline.
Most definitions share the fact that the Web portfolio is a collection of artifacts that exhibit lifelong learning. In addition, I add that the Web portfolio is an appearance that exists professionally and publicly. The Web portfolio fosters learning and growth and is a platform for exhibition of skills and experience, regardless of discipline.
A person or business can have a Web portfolio. A Web portfolio is not simply a Web site, it has a specific purpose. It is to persuade the user to act or think favorably about the portfolio and the author.
The Web portfolio process is a learning experience in itself, requiring the author to reflect and gather important artifacts from their previous learning experi- ences. These materials are dispersed in different media and format and must be uniformly processed and published in a Web site.
Knowledge organization, information architecture, software skills, and visual design are learned and used repeatedly throughout the Web portfolio development process. The next web design lesson will help you brainstorm and develop the concepts and messages needed to convey your best professional appearance.
This stage is critical to getting the process started and developing a strong idea that is backed by a creative theme and intelligent messages. Conceptualization is the first step in the Web portfolio development process.
This web design lesson provides instruction, examples, and steps on how to begin the creative production process. Focus will be on user centered design, conceptualization, and creation of documents that define the scope of your personal Web portfolio project. Topics include understanding the user, brain- storming to determine audience, messages, and supporting images needed as well as development of scope documents for the Web portfolio.
The scope documents are the concept statement, content list, and content outline. These documents help you, the author, to gather your thoughts and begin to record the ideas in hardcopy form. The ideas you put down on paper will go through revision and possibly redefinition during the conceptualization process. Don't worry, this is natural.
This initial struggle with ideas is important to establishing solid content and design. Without conceptualization, comm unication is lost in the translation from the author to the media. This can be deadly in the case of the Web portfolio. Because the goal of the Web portfolio is to persuade, it is vital that all important messages are to the forefront. Without them, it is difficult to establish a personal credibility, identity, and communication channel with the user.


The German automaker, Porsche, has been building great cars since the company was founded in 1931. The Porsche Boxster is a two seat roadster that was introduced in 1996 with the first generation 986. As much as Porsche owners love this sporty vehicle, they have been known to have some mechanical problems from time to time.
The M96 engine has a reputation for having a problem with leaks to its rear main seal, also known as the RMS. The problems were thought to actually have originated in the intermediate shaft cover, but there can be no doubt that some of these leaks originated with the rear main seal as well. While performance was generally not affected by these leaks, if not repaired, eventually this could have a negative impact on the clutch.
Of course owning a Porsche is a significant financial investment, to say the least, so any leak is unacceptable regardless of whether it is considered crucial or not. At any rate, the reasons for the leak aren't clear. It could be that the crankshaft does not have enough support on the back end or it may also be the fact that the crankshaft carrier support is not pinned down adequately causing it to shift. Regardless of what might be causing the leak, this is something that should be addressed by a trained professional.
If your are experiencing a problem with a rear main seal leak or any mechanical issue with your Porsche 986, be sure to take it in to a nearby German import technician for a complete diagnosis and estimate for repair.

Two years ago, I decided to include a montly pope in with the Saints of the Week, but only managed three, St Peter, St Clement, and then alleged Anti-pope St Hippolytus, who I later learned wasn't an anti-pope at all! Since the Saint of the Week returned the first week of November, enjoy the Pope of the Month on the last!
This month, we go back to the days before St Hippolytus to St Victor (Bp of Rome c. 189-198) — a contender for being the first 'Bishop' of Rome. One of the most important developments in church organization was that of the monarchical episcopacy, which emerged in the years following the deaths of the Apostles or leaders of the apostolic age in different places at different rates. The letters of St Ignatius of Antioch (d. 117) reveal that Antioch at the time had an episcopacy that seems to have presided over a board of presbyters. Ignatius as bishop had a liturgical function, a role in protecting orthodoxy, and a prophetic role in leading the church. His letters also show us that many churches in Asia Minor had men called bishops at their heads as well.
The story of the church at Rome is not uncomplicated in this regard. Was Clement the bishop the way we think of them, or one bishop among several? The Roman church was a large body of believers from early days and also relatively wealthy — wealth that was used by the church functionaries to feed the poor and support the ministers. They seem by the time of Clement to see themselves as a united church, not a varied selection of different communities.
1 Clement and The Shepherd of Hermas reveal a church structure that had a group of officials at its head whose titles were, in the last first and early second centuries, still fluid; is there much difference between a presbyter who presides and the episkopoi? By the middle of the second century, the various churches of the cities of the Mediterranean world were in increasing contact, and this necessitated mutual recognition of leadership. This was the time of proto-orthodoxy seeing various risks to its integrity and the doctrinal soundness of the church in the various groups labelled 'Gnostic' as well as the divergent Roman teacher Marcion.
Shortly before Victor's episcopate in Rome, St Irenaeus, bishop of Lyons, gives his famous Apostolic Succession (about which I've blogged here) of the city of Rome in Against the Heresies 3.3. Irenaeus finishes with Eleutherius, Victor's predecessor. This strongly suggests that some form of episcopal monarchy was already established in Rome by the time of Eleutherus' episcopate. The shape of the episcopacy was yet to be fully determined, however — was he a president over his fellow presbyters or what?
Victor comes onto the scene around 189 upon Eleutherus' death. Victor exercised episcopal authority in a variety of ways. According to the Refutation of All Heresies, Book 9, Chapter VII, Victor used influence at the court of the Emperor Commodus to secure the release of Christian prisoners who were working in the mines of Sardinia. We learn from Eusebius (5.28.6) that he also excommunicated one Theodotus the Tanner for denying Christ's divinity. Victor is using the office of bishop, that much is clear.
He is most famous, however, for his involvement in the Quartodeciman Controversy — a debate on the date of Easter. In this controversy, we see the international role that bishops play in each other's churches, as well as the fact that the ancient, 'primitive' church was an international community that sought unity in all things.
Quartodecimans were Christians who celebrated Easter on 14 Nisan, at the same time as Jewish Passover. The primarily lived in Asia Minor. It seems to me that their tradition is probably as old as the accepted celebration of Easter on a Sunday. They included in their ranks the celebrated Bishop of Smyrna, St Polycarp. In the days of Anicetus, one of Victor's predecessors, Polycarp visited Rome, and Anicetus received him warmly, despite their difference over the date of Easter.
In the mid- to late 100s, however, the debate heated up. The date of Easter is a big deal throughout Church history, cropping up here, then again around the time of the Council of Nicaea, then again in the 400s, and then famously at the Synod of Whitby in the 600s (my thoughts on that here). Many of today's Christians probably wonder what the big deal is — who cares which day people celebrate Easter?
Well, two immediate thoughts. One is an official reason: Traditionally, people fast before Easter. To have some feasting while others are still fasting is just in appropriate. Second, Easter is the chief feast of the Christian year. It is the reason we are Christians. Jesus rose from the dead. To fail to celebrate Easter at the same time is to compromise Christian unity that is visible in the feasts.
Other bishops felt that Victor had gone too far by breaking communion with every single Asian Christian, especially since they seemed to be pretty much orthodox. Amongst the more easygoing bishops were Irenaeus who pointed out that cutting churches off because they follow tradition is a bad idea. As Eusebius says, Irenaeus lived up to his name, peacemaker, and corresponded with Victor and other bishops to find a peaceful resolution to the issue.
I guess it seemed to work, since Eusebius does not return to the issue — however, pockets of Quartodecimans continued to exist in Asia Minor for centuries, tradition being on their side.
According to St Jerome, he was the author of Latin works of moderate quality. Reports that he was a martyr and was buried near St Peter are routine and should be rejected. Feast 28 July.
Why is the Synod of Whitby worth bold letters in the centre of the page? Because the popular myth that surrounds Whitby, one that is intimately linked with modern visions of the 'Celtic Church', is that in 664, when King Oswiu and Northumberland chose to follow the current Roman calculations for Easter, they became 'aligned' with the Roman Church against the 'Celtic' Church in a clash of civilisations and worldviews. It was free-spirited Celt vs bureaucratic, legalistic Roman. Many people call 664 the end of Celtic Christianity. If you're interested in Celtic spirituality, don't look any later than this.
So, especially since the gathering was called by the King of Northumberland, it seems the perfect fit for the nastiness that is the official church and its organisms after Constantine ruined everything by daring to give bishops tax-free status.
I just read Benedicta Ward's little booklet A True Easter: The Synod of Whiby 664 AD, and, well, the truth is messier and, quite frankly, doesn't support the above reading which draws more upon nineteenth-century nationalism and contemporary Protestant/agnostic searches for early (Christian) spirituality that doesn't require the presence of a Bishop in Rome.
First, what was this gathering actually about? It was about two things: the date of Easter and how monks should shave their heads. True story. That is all it was about. The latter is not so important. The former, on the other hand, was a big deal all over the ancient and early mediaeval church.
Why is the date of Easter a big deal? Why does it matter whether people celebrate it at the same time? Well, as the Venerable Bede points out, when the King of Northumberland celebrated Easter on one date and his Queen another, one would be feasting while the other was fasting (this is how similar the two practices were; basically the date was the only difference). This is the general complaint about different dates of Easter from time immemorial. It also matters because almost the entire liturgical year is centred around Easter; it sets the dates for the fast of Lent as well as the baptisms which traditionally occur at Easter and Pentecost. It was important for the ancient and mediaeval Christians, who lived in an almost completely oral society for whom visible signs meant more than they do today, that those who are united internally — that is, doctrinally — be united visibly as well.
The dispute about Easter first pops up, according to tradition, in the late 100s when some Christians in Asia Minor were found to be always celebrating Easter on 14 Nisan, that is, Passover — they were accordingly called Quartodecimans. Some people call the Roman episcopus Victor who sent the letter on this issue to the eastern churches the first 'Pope'. Whatever that's worth, Quartodecimans were not the end of such disputes, since calculating Easter is a bit tricky. Constantine, who very often tried to help the church find unity and uniformity in various matters, ruled that everyone should follow the Bishop of Alexandria, since Egyptians are good at astronomy and stuff. This didn't stop Pope Leo I a little over a hundred years later arguing with the Bishop of Alexandria about what the right date would be.
Around 457 (while a frustrated Leo was Bishop of Rome), the Church in Rome decided to follow the Easter tables by Victorius of Aquitaine. This usage spread to the whole western Church that was in communion with the Bishop of Rome, including the Church in Ireland, which was in the process of being evangelised by missionary-bishop-monks sent from Rome.
So how do the Rome-evangelised churches in the south of England, and the Ireland-evangelised churches in the north of England end up with different dates for Easter?
Well, in 525, everyone's favourite short monk from Scythia, Dionysius Exiguus, came up with new tables for calculating the date of Easter that would run until 1063. These were a bit better at calculating the combined solar-lunar cycle that determines Easter (apparently a tricky thing to this day), so the Roman Church and those in communion with her on the continent adopted the new cycle.
Ireland and Wales (and, as a result, the missions in Scotland and England) did not. I imagine this is because there was not a lot of contact between them and Spain and Gaul (let alone Italy!), especially since Spain and Gaul were busy being consolidated into barbarian kingdoms at the time, with the occasional invasion by a neighbour. When Augustine of Canterbury turned up in 597, the Welsh Christians resisted his calculation of Easter; for them, it does seem to have been a mark of resistance and individuality.
Sixty-seven years later at Whitby, however, the Irish-Roman-trained Anglo-Saxons and Irish who favoured the old Roman dating of Easter, and the Kentish-Roman-trained Anglo-Saxons who favoured the new Roman dating, were all simply appealing to what they saw as the authentic tradition. They had all partnered in mission, and some of them were married to people from the other side of the debate. Theologically, they were in agreement. It was the thorny issue of Easter and how to shave a monk's head over which they disagreed. As Benedicta Ward paints the scene, this was a meeting of friends, of Christians who loved one another who wanted to solve a problem.
Except possibly Oswiu, for whom this was also a matter of secular politicking.
Anyway, the new Roman position won. Although Colman resigned his bishopric and monastery, his replacements in Lindisfarne were still Irish-trained; the only difference was the fact that they would follow the new date of Easter. When he left, some of the English monks followed him to Iona.
Ward points out that Bede speaks highly of the Irish missionaries and monks, finding their obstinacy concerning dating Easter as the only general fault. Their devotion to the theological truths of Easter he praises.
Eventually, all of England, Ireland, Scotland, and the isles adopted the new Roman date of Easter. While this may sound like reading history backwards, it still strikes me as inevitable. The entire church on the continent followed this practice, as did the churches in southern England with a mix in Northumberland. The Church of Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages esteemed unity, and the celebration of the Church's chiefest and principal feast was an important demonstration of that unity.
If you're looking for a Roman church imposing its power over local practices, look not to the Synod of Whitby.
For those still curious about the doings of the Classic Christian Reading Group, this past week we read Bede's account of St. Augustine, in his Ecclesiastical History of the English People Book 1, chh. 23-26, par. 1 of 27, 29, 31, 33, 34; Book 2, Chh. 2, 3.
In the year of Our Lord 596, Pope St. Gregory the Great, Doctor of the Church, sent missionaries to the island of Britain to convert the pagan Anglo-Saxon peoples dwelling there. At the head of this expedition was the abbot (for the missionaries were monastics) Augustine (not of Hippo). As these Italian missionaries got closer to the English Channel, they wavered in their commitment. Why on earth were they going amongst a barbarian people who did not worship the Most Holy Trinity, did not honour the name of Christ, had strange customs, and spoke a language they did not even know?
They sent Augustine back to Gregory in Rome, but Gregory would hear none of it, but instead exhorted them not to turn back having put their hand to the plough, for it would have been better never to have started at all than to have chickened out in Gaul (France) — a common piece of advice to ancient and mediaeval monks and missionaries.
Strengthened by Pope Gregory's words, they crossed over to the island of Thanet and made their presence known to Ethelbert, King of Kent. Ethelbert went over and met them, allowing them to stay on the island for a while until he was certain of their motives. Ethelbert's wife was a Frankish princess named Bertha and herself a Catholic Christian (this is in distinction to Arian Vandals or Goths), so he had some knowledge of the faith.
Once King Ethelbert was convinced the were of good intent, the missionaries were given an old church in Canterbury to operate from. Although he did not wish to convert at first, since it is a big deal to turn away from the customs and beliefs of one's ancestors, Ethelbert saw no harm in allowing the Christians to preach among his people, allowing the people of Kent to believe as they chose. If we consider the attitude of a good many Christian princes and bishops at this point in time, King Ethelbert's tolerance is outstanding.
The missionaries lived together in monastic simplicity, sharing everything in common, and providing a stipend to the married missionaries who seem to have been involved in the project. Their simplicity of life, miraculous signs, and clarity of preaching won many souls from among the English. Canterbury became the seat of episcopal power in Kent, and remains the see city for the Church of England to this day. Before long, King Ethelbert converted and was baptised, giving even greater freedom of movement to the missionaries both to preach and to restore old Roman churches that had fallen into disuse during the centuries of the Anglo-Saxon invasion of the old province of Britannia.
Such an attitude would seem shocking to people reared on Reformation myths of mediaeval Christianity, or with the knowledge of Charlemagne's attempts at making all liturgy and practice uniform in the eighth century. Yet this is not so surprising if we consider the vast world of ancient Christianity which spread from Ireland to Mesopotamia and even India and included various cultures. There was and is much similarity among the traditional liturgies, be they Roman, Gallican, Byzantine, Coptic, Syrian, and so forth, but with flexibility for local variation.
According to one book I read, this embracing of the good from both the Roman and Celtic practices is what helped shape and form the Use of Sarum, the particular liturgy in use in England until the Reformation. No doubt it was less florid in St. Augustine's day.
This willingness to take what is good from the pre-existing culture is demonstrated in the evidence that remains of Anglo-Saxon Christianity as established by men like Augustine and Cuthbert and as it stood until the coming of the Frenchified Viking Normans in 1066. For example, the Anglo-Saxon Lindisfarne Gospels demonstrate an artistic aesthetic that stands proudly beside the Celtic art of the Book of Kells. Many of the considerations and prayers we find from the Saxons resonate with those we find amongst the monks of Iona.
Although there was some clash between the Roman missionary enterprise from the South and East and the Celtic from the North and West, much of what the modern Celtic movement in Christianity treasures existed within Anglo-Saxon Christianity as well.
However, the encounters between St. Augustine and the Celts were not all afternoon tea and crumpets. The Celtic Church was not following the same date for Easter as the rest of the Church (ie. the Church from Spain and France to Mesopotamia, from Germany to Ethiopia), and they had their own monastic system. St. Augustine tried to force the Celtic Christians to accept the universal date for Easter and to adopt Roman (ie. Benedictine) monastic practices. They refused; many were slain by an Anglo-Saxon pagan king years later. Bede attributes their deaths to their refusal to submit to St. Augustine.
As St. Augustine's mission grew, he consecrated bishops in London and Rochester. Many of the English became Christians during this time, and because of King Ethelbert's conversion, many people with senior positions within the realm adopted Christianity or were promoted because they were Christians. Ethelbert did not force his people to convert, maintaining his previous openness to people of other beliefs.
In 604, St. Augustine died. The Church he helped found spread throughout all of England, and those worshipping communities have their successors amongst the worldwide Anglicans as well as English Roman Catholics. A great harvest has been reaped, to glory of God Almighty.

Q: When and why did English change Affrick and Asie to Africa and Asia? English names for continents all end in Latin suffix -a / -ia, except Europe.
Africa, America, Antarctica, Asia, Australia
Since English language used to take much of its vocabulary from French during Middle Ages (incl. some suffixes, e.g. -y (← Fr. -ie) as in Italy), I was wondering why English names for continents are not formed after French instead, containing the French suffix -e.
Afrique, Amerique, Antarctique, Asie, Australie
As I found out, Africa and Asia, the two Old World continents, actually DID have the French suffix. According to Wiktionary:

*

*Africa comes from Middle English Affrike, from Old French Affrique, Affrike. Obsolete names for Africa include Affrike, Afric, Africk.

*Asia comes from Middle English Asia, Asie, from Old French Asie and Latin Asia.
And Europe still retains its French -e.
Obviously, the English language changed the French suffixes (-e) for Latin ones (-a). And obviously, this change was not natural but rather artificial/external. (And the neologisms America, Australia and Antarctica were then created in this fashion.)
When and why did this change happen?
When people were used to Affrick and Asie, how did they accept new names, Africa and Asia?
Why did not Europe change to Europa?

A: In Middle English, both -e and -a were used for all three words. (Not surprising as spelling was widely variable, especially when it came to vowels.) Here's Aelfric (1175) using the -a forms:

Þe ðry delas beoð idælede ðurh heom [Noah], Asia on eastrice ðam ealdestan sunu, Affrica on suðdælæ ðes Chames cynnes, & Europa on norðdæle, Iapheðes ofsprunges.

And here's Confessio Amantis (a1393; c1300) with -e forms:

Asie, Aufrique, Europe..Als ferr as streccheth eny ground, Begripeth al this Erthe round.

If the quotes I found (searching the Middle English Dictionary) are representative, then both -e forms of Asia and Africa were used around 1200 and Europe appeared a little after that (1300).

Is Amazon Pushing Publishers to Brink On Terms, Co-op?
By Rachel Deahl and Jim Milliot |
Last week Amazon caused a furor in the bookselling world, with its reveal of a price check app consumers could use in bricks-and-mortar stores to get discounts at the retailer. Although the app did not include books, its announcement offered many a chance to slam Amazon as a ruthless corporation out to destroy the community bookstore and, as Richard Russo claimed in the New York Times, literary culture along with it. Although the price check app is what continues to be discussed in the media, what has publishers riled, behind the scenes, is aggressive moves the retailer is making in its demands on co-op and discounts. A number of sources in the industry, all of whom spoke to PW on the condition of anonymity, said the retailer is, in certain cases, threatening to stop selling titles from companies who won't pay up.
Many sources said Amazon has been asking for a steeper wholesale discount on books. (Although e-books are sold on the agency model, print books continue to be sold on the wholesale model, in which retailers purchase titles at a certain percentage off the list price.) Co-op requests from Amazon have also escalated, according to a number of insiders. Although publishers and distributors regularly have discussions with Amazon about these issues--negotiating the terms on these matters is a standard aspect of doing business--the retailer's requests, in recent weeks, have sent shocks through many in the industry, some of whom are worried about what will happen to their books if they cannot meet the demands.
Publishers and distributors have called the latest negotiations with Amazon the most adversarial to date, and many have noted that, for the first time, the retailer is outlining co-op costs for digital, as well as print. Amazon has, as some sources explained, long been pressuring publishers to provide ancillary content on the pages where their books are sold, from videos and q&a's to links to similar books. That content has always been something publishers have had to both pay for and provide. In the latest negotiations with Amazon, sources told PW, the price of providing that content has jumped to what sources say are astronomical percentages (but those sources would not provide specific numbers).
Many publishers and distributors said they have not, and cannot, cave to this newest set of demands from Amazon. The fear, though, is that the retailer could take punitive action. Recalling the most infamous instance of what can happen to a publisher that refuses Amazon's terms, many cite the showdown between Macmillan and Amazon when, in February 2010, the retailer removed the buy buttons to all Macmillan titles after the publisher said it would sell its e-books to the retailer on agency terms, as opposed to wholesale terms.
Although publishers fear seeing their titles disappear from Amazon--for many in the industry the retailer accounts for 20% to 25% of their business--some say the demands the retailer is making are impossible to meet and would nearly wipe out all of their profits there anyway. Furthermore, as some have noted, changing wholesale terms with Amazon, could present a legal issue. Although co-op deals can be varied and private, publishers are prevented by the Robinson-Patman Act from favoring one account over another with notably different wholesale terms. (It was the broad discrepancy in discount terms among accounts that led the ABA to sue Barnes & Noble and Borders in the 1990s.)
The demands regarding co-op have some particularly on edge. Not only are many publishers frustrated about being asked to pay more money for content they are providing, but the whole notion of co-op at the online retailer is unsettling. While the case can be made that co-op in a bricks-and -mortar store is a worthwhile investment--money is spent on getting books to physical areas of the store, such as front tables, where consumers will see those books first--it's much less logical on a Web site. Does having a video or an author Q&A on a book's page on Amazon really encourage a customer who has already clicked on that book to make a purchase?
More problematically, for many in the industry, the latest talks with Amazon are being described as less of a dialogue than a dictation of terms. As one source explained, the talks have boiled down to "what publishers can do for Amazon, and not what Amazon can do for publishers." Most ironically, the new terms would allow Amazon to continue to gain market share as it always has: driving book prices down. As one source put it: "If Amazon wants to improve its margins, it should cut back on the discounting."

'I Carry the Name of my Parents': young people's reflections on FGM and forced marriage - results from PEER studies in London, Amsterdam and Lisbon
Author: J. Hemmings, S. Khalifa
Publisher: Foundation for Women's Health Research and Development
http://www.forwarduk.org.uk/download/354
This report presents the results of three participatory ethnographic evaluation research (PEER) studies, carried out as part of the CREATE Youth-Net project, which aims to safeguard young people in three European countries (the United Kingdom, Portugal and the Netherlands) from harmful practices, in particular Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and forced marriage. Twenty-eight young men and women, from diverse ethnicities, were recruited by project partners in Lisbon, Amsterdam and London to act as PEER researchers. All were aged between 18-29 years old, with an average age of 23 years. They were trained in conducting conversational interviews and ethical practice, and selected three trusted friends with whom to conduct in-depth discussions. A total of 82 respondents took part. Interviews covered a range of themes, including migration experiences, gender and social norms, notions of cultural identity, and harmful practices including FGM and forced marriage.
Among the key findings of this study is that young first- and second-generation migrants value human rights, choice, and freedom whilst retaining respect for their elders. The concept of 'the family name' or honour, which is often closely linked to the maintenance of female virginity before marriage, remains a particularly influential value in the daily lives of young women. Young people must be helped to overcome age/power barriers, which may prevent them from speaking with family members about such taboo issues, and reporting crimes such as FGM and forced marriage. These results support the project's emphasis on empowering young people as agents of change: they are open to the idea of culture being adaptable (keeping certain aspects whilst moving away from harmful practices) and many want to contribute to ending harmful practices. Human dignity, freedom and opportunities for self-development were important values to the majority of respondents. However, the PEER studies also identified some potential challenges that need to be addressed at policy and programme level. The CREATE Youth-Net project project is funded by the European Commission Daphne programme, and led by Foundation for Women's Health and Development (FORWARD), in partnership with Federation of Somali Associations in the Netherlands (FSAN), Family Planning Association Portugal (APF) and the Iranian and Kurdish Women's Rights Organisation (IKWRO).

A focus on the Wales National Teams and Cardiff City FC.
Wales Watch
Nations League 2018
Mitchell Clark "surprised" at not being named in the Wales U21 squad
Welsh full-back, Mitchell Clark was omitted from Robert Page's Wales U21 squad. Clark is currently on loan at Port Vale from Aston Villa and playing regularly for the League Two club.
In an exclusive interview with Behind the Goal, Clark speaks about his current career with Port Vale and his dissatisfaction with not being included in any Wales U21 squad.
19-year-old Clark played 90 minutes at right-back on Saturday in a 1-1 home draw with Exeter, a game that Rob Page watched from the stands.
"The game against Exeter on Saturday was one of my better matches this season. It's my first loan from Villa and I think I've been performing very well," explained Clark.
"I knew after the game that Rob Page was there, but I had no contact with him at the game or after it.
Clearly frustrated by the lack of chances, "I haven't been picked for the U21's again, so it's obvious the manager doesn't fancy me and I'm not in his [Page's] plans."
Rob Page named 3 full-backs in his 19-man squad to face Romania and Switzerland, including Rhys Norrington-Davies, 19 (Sheff Utd), Cameron Coxe, 19 (Cardiff) and Aaron Lewis, 20 (Swansea) – none of which are playing senior football at the moment.
"I've got Cameron Coxe, who is suspended [for the first match against Romania] and Aaron Lewis at Swansea, who is playing really well," said Page.
"Clark is still a young one and he's still developing. He can play at full-back on both sides and we've good competition in those areas.
"He will get his opportunity but it might be with the U19's to start with."
Mitch Clark too old for the U19s (Born in 1999, current crop of U19s for the UEFA matches are Players born after Jan 1st 2000)
— Wales International Football [dragonsoccer.co.uk] (@dragonsoccer58) October 5, 2018
Clark was left confused by Page's decision because he has already played 8 times for Wales U19's between 2016-2017. He was named in the 2017 squad for the Toulon Tournament, but withdrew, along with David Brooks and Rhys Norrington-Davies.
He last played for Wales U19's in the Euro Qualifier against Turkey, where Paul Bodin was in charge. He also captained Wales U19's last year and really wants to kick on for the U21's.
"I was very surprised to not be named, but I'm not disappointed because it gives me more of a chance to concentrate on club football with Port Vale now."
When asked about his aspirations to play for the senior squad: "I played with some of the lads who are in the senior squad – Ethan Ampadu, Tyler Roberts and those boys.
"They've obviously gone above and made the step up, so the pathway and the chances are there for the players."
Clark has played 9 times in Port Vale's 11 league matches this season, who are positioned in sixteenth place in League Two. Port Vale will play Grimsby Town away on Saturday 6th October.
He has a year left on his current deal with Aston Villa, with a 12-month extension option.

BELLE VERNON, Pa. (March 27) – The California University of Pennsylvania baseball team claimed a doubleheader sweep on Saturday afternoon, winning 8-3 and 5-2 over Clarion at the John DiVirgilino Sports Complex in Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) West action.
With the sweep, the Vulcans improve to 13-10 overall with an 8-2 league mark this season. Meanwhile, the Golden Eagles fall to 1-11 this year with a 0-6 divisional mark.
Redshirt sophomore Randy Sturgill (Leechburg, Pa./Leechburg) earned the win in Game 1 after throwing his fifth complete game in six starts this season. He scattered three runs on six hits and three walks while tying his season high of 10 strikeouts. Clarion starter Kevin Gnacinski (1-2) suffered the loss, tossing 3.2 innings and allowing seven runs (six earned) on eight hits.
Sophomore center fielder Troy Handza (Glenshaw, Pa./Shaler) highlighted the offense by going 2-for-4 with a double, two-run homer, four RBI and two runs. Junior designated hitter Chuck Faust (Hershey, Pa./Hershey), junior first baseman Adam Link (New Hope, Pa./Central Bucks East) and junior shortstop Casey Teagarden (Greensburg, Pa./Hempfield) each collected two hits. Teagarden also scored two runs, stole a base and drove in a run.
Clarion took the first lead of the game with a two-run, two-out double in the top of the second. The Vulcans evened the score at 2-2 in the third when Handza belted a two-run homer (sixth of the season). The Golden Eagles countered with a run in the third and threatened to break the game open before Sturgill registered consecutive strikeouts with the bases loaded.
Cal U answered with five runs in the bottom of the third to take a 7-3 lead. Links opened the inning with a double and scored on a sacrifice fly. The second run of the inning scored on a fielder's choice before Handza followed with a two-run double. The Vulcans added an insurance run in the sixth on an error to increase its lead to 8-3.
In the nightcap, senior right-hander Nick Schreiber (Greencastle, Pa./Greencastle Antrim) threw a complete game, yielding only two runs (one earned) on five hits with seven strikeouts and two walks. The Golden Eagles' Brandon Slater (0-2) was saddled with the loss after surrendering four runs (two earned) on four hits in 5.0-plus innings.
Cal U took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the third on an error and fielder's choice. Teagarden started the fifth with a single and stole second and third before scoring on a two-out double by senior right fielder Sam DiMatteo (Center, Pa./Center), 3-0.
In the sixth, the Golden Eagles scored their first run on a two-out error and had two runners in scoring position before Schreiber induced grounder to close the inning. The Vulcans countered by adding a pair of insurance runs in the bottom of the sixth on two-out, RBI singles by junior catcher Eric Berringer (Damascus, Md./Damascus) and Handza.
Schreiber opened the seventh with two strikeouts before allowing a run after issuing a walk and back-to-back singles. However, he forced a flyout with runners on first and second to finish his third complete game of the season.
In the nightcap, six different Vulcans collected a hit, including Teagarden who scored two runs and stole a pair of bases.
Cal U is scheduled to return to action on Monday, March 29, when it travels to Clarion for a doubleheader at Memorial Stadium. First pitch is set for 1 p.m.

Berger & Montague PC issued the following announcement on Aug. 28.
United States Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Florida announced that a settlement was reached in a qui tam whistleblower suit under the False Claims Act captioned United States of America and the State of Florida ex rel. T.A.S., M.D. v. Robert A. Norman, D.O., et al., No. 8:15-cv-1506-T-23AEP. The whistleblower's suit, filed in federal court in Tampa, alleged that Dermatology Healthcare, LLC; Robert A. Norman, D.O, P.A.; Robert A. Norman, D.O.; and Carol Norman (collectively, Dermatology Healthcare) falsely billed government healthcare programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, for complex radiation treatments.
Prior to filing this False Claims Act suit, the whistleblower investigated Dermatology Healthcare's suspicious billing practices. The investigation revealed a number of important facts related to the actual radiation services being provided. Specifically, the company's website depicted an image of a linear accelerator, which is a complex and expensive radiation device commonly located on the campuses of major hospitals.
For more than 15 years, the Berger Montague's Whistleblower, Qui Tam & False Claims Act Practice Group has represented whistleblowers in matters involving healthcare fraud, defense contracting fraud, IRS fraud, securities fraud, and commodities fraud, helping to return more than $3 billion to federal and state governments. In return, whistleblower clients retaining Berger Montague to represent them in state and federal courts have received more than $500 million in rewards. Berger Montague's time-tested approach in Whistleblower/Qui Tam representation involves cultivating close, productive attorney-client relationships with the maximum degree of confidentiality for our clients. Our goal is for each of our clients' experience as a whistleblower working with our firm and with the government to be positive and fulfilling.

eMachines D620-261G16Mi review
Great usability and excellent software, but performance and mobility are poor
By Alex Bentley 27 July 2009
This eMachines laptop isn't much to look at, but it's built solidly
There's as much good about this laptop as there is bad, and the price is right...
Build quality and usability
Low performance
Asus eMachines D620-261G16Mi deals
While the eMachines brand may not be as well known as its rivals, it takes many successful design cues from its parent company Acer. As a result, the D620-261G16Mi (£276 inc. VAT) is a highly usable laptop, although it falls short in terms of raw performance.
The compact chassis is a nice feature but, at 2.5kg, it is slightly heavier than the larger Asus. While its small size makes it comfortable to carry on the move, the 148-minute battery life is pretty low and restricts mobility.
As with many older Asus laptops, the plain black design has a very corporate appearance. The use of a gun-metal finish adds style, but there is still little to differentiate it from the vast competition. Build quality is excellent, however.
As with many Acer laptops, the keyboard has a 5-degree upward angle that places the keys at a more natural typing position. The keys are responsive and firmly fixed to the chassis, so usability is excellent at all times.
Due to the small chassis, a 14.1-inch screen has been used, rather than the 15.4-inch panels that are most common. Most users won't notice the slightly decreased screen space, however. Image quality is generally good, but colour and contrast aren't as vibrant as we would've hoped.
A single-core AMD Athlon CPU has been used rather than an Intel processor and is backed by 1024MB of memory. It only suits the most basic use, such as email and browsing the internet.
3D performance is also basic. Although an ATI graphics chip is used, rather than an integrated Intel chip, this isn't a laptop built for multimedia creation. Instead it is better used for watching videos and DVDs and playing only the most basic 3D games.
Storage options are mixed. The 160GB hard drive will hold most music and photo collections. The dual-layer DVD rewriter is also impressive and supports all disc formats, including DVD –RAM. However, unlike the Asus X58L and Fujitsu Esprimo V6535, there is no support for flash storage cards.
While there are no extra hardware features present, the excellent bundle of free software compensates somewhat. Microsoft Works provides basic home office tools, while there are also applications for internet security, DVD viewing and CD/DVD disc creation.
The eMachines D620-261G16Mi is excellent in many ways, but is also flawed in many others. Despite its compact design, excellent usability and software package, the low performance and battery life restrict its potential, so consider your needs before buying.
