God has called me to serve college students at the Colorado School of Mines. I am beyond excited to get onto campus in Golden so that I can begin making authentic friendships with the students of Mines. Throughout my time at school in Colorado I discovered that every person desires to be known, loved, and cared for. It is often difficult to have these desires fulfilled on a college campus. I wish to show the students of Mines that these desires are fulfilled through relationship with Christ as well as with friendship with others seeking Christ.
I did not begin to have my own desire to be known, loved, and cared for fulfilled until the beginning of my senior year at the University of Colorado when I made the decision to give my life fully to Christ. Through this encounter with the Lord I realized that my greatest desire is for others to experience the amazing joy it is to truly know Christ. My life has been transformed by Jesus and I want nothing more than to bring this joy to others and introduce them to the life-changing message of the Gospel. In His ministry on earth, Jesus humbled Himself to meet us on our level, taking on our humanity, and spent most of His time investing deeply in a few. I look to follow Jesus' example by investing fully in a few men at Mines so that in turn they may share their own selves to many more men.
Blessed Mother Teresa says, "Some give by going and others go by giving." When I answered the call to join FOCUS, I made the decision to rely on the spiritual and financial support of mission partners to help me through this mission. I've been blessed with the most amazing people who have journeyed with me as I serve on campus. If you are interested in partnering with me, please let me know of the best way to reach you and I will schedule an appointment. I'd be honored to share this mission with you.

I got a visa to Zimbabwe (albeit a few years ago). Being famous doesn't get you everything, does it?
I like the Google map accompanying that news story. Somehow I doubt that Carter and Annan were trying to enter Zimbabwe from a small town in northern Michigan.
At minimum, Google needs to come up with a system that chooses, from the set of all cities in the world with a given name, the city with the largest population. Better yet, they should scan the article and look for other geographical clues that would enable them to make a more accurate guess. I'm surprised they haven't done that already.


We discussed some of the most critical tasks and activities concerning spring lawn care on previous occasions, offering you plenty of tips and advice. However, we know that lawn care is a costly expense for a family and a relatively controversial one – when it comes to water consumption or the use of fertilizers and pesticides. To make things clearer, today we will present you with some advice, tips, and suggestions provided by our experts in lawn care in Lake Ridge VA so that you can maintain a lush lawn and landscape without wasting too much money.
Professional Irrigation Systems: Did you know that homeowners consume staggering amounts of water when they irrigate their lawns throughout the year? Besides local regulations on water waste and a general concern about environmental issues, water waste leaves some burns in your pocket as well. It may sound wrong to install an irrigation system in this framework, but a smart one will save you money yearly. First of all, smart sensors and hi-tech sprinklers save water by irrigating the lawn at the right times and the right amounts of water. Talk to our experts in lawn care in Lake Ridge VA about irrigation system installations to learn more about how a new-generation system can keep your lawn pristine without rampaging through your budget.
Organic Fertilization: In this category, we have mulch and compost. When it comes to lawn fertilization and weed control, you need an expert team to deal with problematic issues and apply custom fertilizers and herbicides. Beyond that, however, mulch and compost nourish the soil slowly, limiting the use of chemical products in your yard and garden. Moreover, mulch keeps the ground moist and fresh in summer (and warm in winter), acting as a defense mechanism against weeds, pests, and diseases. A nice layer of mulch also helps with the preservation of a pristine look of your property all year long.
Expert Services From Pros In Lawn Care in Lake Ridge VA: A team of pros assesses your lawn and garden, making sure the property receives precisely the care and maintenance it needs, nothing more and nothing less. Experts do not make mistakes and do not overdo things. There is no risk or extra costs in working with a professional lawn care company, as it preserves your budget within limits by offering integrated lawn care services.

If it goes well, meet again!
Always meet in a populated, public place in an area that you're familiar with such as your favorite busy restaurant. A first date is not the time for a hike through the forest or any other remote rendezvous.
Meet at a time and on a day that's convenient for you. Be suspicious if your date insists on meeting at odd hours unless they have a legitimate reason.
Do not accept a lift from your date. If you can't drive to the chosen location then get a friend to drive you, take public transport or a taxi. If you can't get there by yourself don't go.
Tell a friend or family member where you're going, what time you're meeting and how long you expect to be. Give the friend a copy of your date's contact details and make sure you date knows you've done this. Letting your online dating partner know that you're giving someone else their contact is common courtesy but also makes sure they know people are looking out for you.
Keep your cell phone with you and switched on at all times. If you change locations, such moving to a different bar or restaurant, call or text message your friend to keep them updated. Arrange to have the friend call you at a specified time, such as one hour into the date, to check how things are going. Chances are you'll be having a great time and want to chat about their cute smile but if things aren't going well the call will give you an excuse to leave.
Refrain from excessive drinking or any other activity that could impair your judgment and lead to poor decision making. Sure, you're out to have a good time but if everything goes well there will be many, many more good times to come. Getting trashed is also poor dating etiquette.
Do not leave your personal belongings or drink unattended at any time. If you go to the bathroom take your phone, bag and/or wallet with you. Do not risk having your personal details stolen. Keep any drinks close to you at all times and if you've left it, leave it. Half a warm beer isn't worth risking your safety.
Be aware of your date's behavior and body language. Shows of anger, possessiveness, frustration or attempts to pressure or threaten you should set off alarm bells; proceed with great caution. Alternatively if they're sitting up and leaning slightly towards you, showing interest in your conversation and maintaining eye contact you've got a winner!
If you are made to feel uncomfortable at any time attract the attention of someone around you. Tell a waitress, a security guard, a passerby, a stranger in the bathroom - just attract the attention and support of someone around you – and leave. If your date insists on walking you to a car parked down an alley or in a deserted parking lot stop where you are, call a cab and collect your car another time. Your safety is more important that worrying about causing your date offense.
It may sound like a cliché but always trust your instincts. If your gut is telling you to leave, then leave. Similarly if your gut is telling you that you've met the most amazing person in the world, arrange a second date!


We are trying to do more meatless meals during the week, and the plan is to actually incorporate some vegan meals into our menu as well. My idea of a perfect weekly menu plan is to include at least 1 vegetarian day, 1 vegan day, and 1 seafood day each week.
I have been wanting to try polenta for a very long time. However, my husband did not think he would like it since he doesn't like "gritty" food- grits, Quinoa, couscous. So I've put off trying it.
There were a few days during the week that he was not supposed to be home for dinner, so I figured I would make the polenta one evening he wasn't here.
I had bought a jarred marinara sauce to go with the polenta, but I decided that plain marinara sauce wouldn't be enough. I had just gotten my CSA delivery for the week, and it was full of squash, so I picked out 4 different ones to add into the sauce.
This was such an easy summer dish- Vegan and Gluten Free too!
1.Cut all the veggies and set aside.
2.Spray a large skillet with non-stick cooking spray- I prefer Trader Joes Olive Oil spray. I find that lightly spraying a pan before adding the oil helps prevent sticking- especially with eggs and veggies. Add about 1 tablespoon EVOO. Add all the veggies at the same time. They will cook down.
3. Let them cook on medium- stirring occasionally, until they start to soften. While the veggies are cooking, prepare your herbs (if using fresh).
I am loving having fresh herbs at my fingertips all summer. I am going to go out and get some more to have, and next year I will devote one entire garden to growing herbs.
4.Once the veggies have cooked down, and the squash has started to soften, add the marinara sauce and the herbs.
5.Let the sauce simmer while preparing the polenta. If using the kind from TJ's- slice it. Next time I make this I will make my polenta from scratch, but this worked well for a quick and easy dinner.
6.Spray a skillet with non-stick cooking spray, add the margarine and minced (or pressed) garlic.
7. Once you can smell the garlic, add the sliced polenta. Premaid polenta is pretty bland so I cooked mine in the garlic to add extra flavor.
8. Let cook until heated through. Make sure to get both sides. I drained mine on papertowels before serving them.
9.Serve the polenta with the sauce on top.
My husband actually got home from work early the night I made this, so he had some too. Surprisingly, he loved it! We both agree that homemade polenta would be better- more flavor- but that it was definitely a filling meal. If you don't like polenta this sauce would be good on pasta, or over rice.
You could use different types of squash- I used what I had gotten in my CSA bag.
I love that polenta, I keep meaning to buy it, but then I don't get around to it!
Great post - I have never tried polenta but have seen it on the TV cooking shows quite often. Does it taste similar to cornbread in flavor, only softer?

Travel chaos as thousands of rail workers strike over jobs pay and conditions
todayJuly 27, 2022 9
Rail passengers were suffering fresh travel chaos on Wednesday when thousands of workers walked out on strike, crippling services across the country.
Disputes in the bitter row over jobs, pay, pensions and conditions are worsening, with more strikes in the coming days, and a wave of industrial action planned next month on the railways and London Underground.
Only around one in five trains will run on Wednesday, on around half the network, with some areas having no trains all day.
Picket lines were being mounted outside train stations as members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT) at Network Rail and 14 train operators went on strike.
Passengers are being urged to only travel by train if they must, and if it is necessary, allow extra time and check when their last train will depart.
Trains are expected to be disrupted on Thursday morning with a later start to services as employees return to duties.
The Transport Salaried Staffs' Association (TSSA) has also announced a strike by its members at Avanti West Coast on Wednesday, while members of the drivers union Aslef at seven companies will strike on Saturday.
RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said union members were more determined than ever to secure a decent pay rise, job security and good working conditions.
"Network Rail have not made any improvement on their previous pay offer and the train companies have not offered us anything new.
"In fact, Network Rail have upped the ante, threatening to impose compulsory redundancies and unsafe 50% cuts to maintenance work if we did not withdraw our planned strike action.
"The train operating companies have put driver-only operations on the table along with ransacking our members' terms and conditions.
"RMT will continue to negotiate in good faith but we will not be bullied or cajoled by anyone.
"The Government need to stop their interference in this dispute so the rail employers can come to a negotiated settlement with us."
Grant Shapps said in his three years as Transport Secretary there has not been a single day when unions have not been in dispute by threatening or taking industrial action, with around 60 separate disputes in 2022 alone.
"Today, union bosses are once again trying to cause as much disruption as possible to the day-to-day lives of millions of hardworking people around the country," he said.
"What's more, it has been cynically timed to disrupt the start of the Commonwealth Games and crucial Euro 2022 semi-finals, in a deliberate bid to impact the travel of thousands trying to attend events the whole country is looking forward to.
"This country's taxpayers stumped up £600 per household to ensure not a single rail worker lost their job during the pandemic, but many of those very same people will be forced into losing a day's wages through no fault of their own but because of stubborn union leaders' refusals to modernise.
"Union bosses will claim they're willing to do a deal but how can anyone take them seriously when, earlier this month, the RMT dismissed a Network Rail offer worth 8% over the next two years without even consulting their members.
"Unfortunately, it's too late to call off today's damaging strikes but I urge the RMT, and indeed all unions, to stop holding the country to ransom with the threat of further industrial action and get off picket lines and back round the negotiating table. If not, we risk passengers turning their backs on the railway for good."
Writing in The Telegraph, Mr Shapps dubbed the strikes an example of "union collusion", adding he would seek to ban "strikes by different unions in the same workplace within a set period".
He said he would also look at implementing a 60-day cooling-off period after each strike, as well as ensuring critical industries like rail maintain minimum service levels.
Andrew Haines, Network Rail chief executive, said: "Despite our best efforts to find a breakthrough, I'm afraid there will be more disruption for passengers this week as the RMT seems hell-bent on continuing their political campaigning, rather than compromising and agreeing a deal for their members.
"I can only apologise for the impact this pointless strike will have on passengers, especially those travelling for holidays or attending events such as the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 semi-final (Wednesday) and the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games (Thursday)."
Steve Montgomery, chairman of the Rail Delivery Group, said: "We are incredibly disappointed that the RMT and Aslef leadership are continuing with this action, disrupting the summer plans of millions – including those attending the Commonwealth Games.
"While we will do all that we can to minimise disruption to passengers, our advice is to only travel if it is necessary, and if you are going to travel, please plan ahead."
A Department for Transport spokesperson said: "It's now clearer than ever that the RMT has no interest in engaging in constructive discussions and is hell-bent on creating further misery for passengers across the UK.
"This action is a cynically timed attempt to derail the start of the Commonwealth Games, one of the first major events the country has been able to look forward to since the pandemic."
Members of the RMT and TSSA will launch coordinated strikes on August 18 and 20, while the RMT announced a strike on London Underground on August 19.

W. A. Criswell Sermon Library | What Do You See?
Now we are not going to make this a stiff and formal service. And to begin with, I felt of this marble floor, and it is cold; so we are not going to ask our youngsters to sit down on this marble floor, just Beverly Terrell, one of our girls. But all of you children who are ten years of age, would you come down here, all of you who are ten? How many of you who are ten years old, you come down here. And Beverly, I want you to have one or two or three up here by me, and the rest of them I want you to have seated down here. Is that all right? All of you who are ten years old, you come down here. See how many ten-year-olds that we have. Now, how many of you are nine years old? You come down here, all of you who are nine. And Beverly let's put some of our ten-year-olds up here by me. All of you who are nine years old, you come down here. I want just some of you to be seated around me here. That's right. Just some of them; kind of the rest of them can be seated out there on that carpet. Now, are there some eight-year-old children here tonight? If you are eight years old, you all come and sit out there on the carpet. That's the way. Just be seated out there on the carpet. And you who are standing there, you can be seated on the carpet also. That's good. That's good. That's good. Are there some eleven-year-old children here tonight? We still have some room down here. If you are eleven years old, just be seated out there on the carpet. And that will be so wonderfully nice. Oh, that's perfect!
Now Beverly, we're going to look in the manger, we're going to look in the cattle shed, we're going to look into the face of a little baby; and the wonder and the glory of that was incomparably sweet and precious. And Beverly Terrell, I want you to sing a song, "Do You See What I See? Do You Hear What I Hear?" And we're all going to look, and we're all going to see, and we're all going to hear tonight. All right, Beverly.
Oh dear! There never was such a night as that night. For thousands and thousands of years the world was in preparation for that night. And when it came, you would have thought it would have been in Caesar's palace in Rome, or it would have been in Herod's palace in Jerusalem. It wasn't in anybody's palace; it wasn't in anybody's mansion. That night of all nights brought to us the greatest, sweetest gift God ever gave to man in a cattle stall in a manger. And you know how it came to pass? Out there in a big field, just beyond the city of Bethlehem, there were shepherds watching over their flocks. And I can hear them talk, maybe as they sat around a fire, just as you are seated around me tonight. And I can hear one shepherd say to another, "Oh, you know I love to be out here under the starry sky. And I love to listen to the sweet night wind. And things are so quiet and beautiful. I love the life of a shepherd." And another one would answer, "Did you know, there in the city of Bethlehem, oh! there are so many people?" Another shepherd says, "Why?" And he replies, "Because the great Roman emperor has said everybody is to write his name in the king's big book; and they're to go to the city in which their parents were born and there to have their names enrolled in the king's big book. And the crowd is just so big in Bethlehem."
And another shepherd says, "You know, Bethlehem is the City of David; that's where he grew up as a boy." And another shepherd says, "Wouldn't it have been wonderful had we lived in the days of David, the great king?" And another shepherd says, "But listen, but listen, as wonderful as David was, and as glorious as he was a king, God has said that David is going to have a descendent, there's going to be a son born in the family and in the line of David, and He is going to be the greatest King of the world. He is going to be the Lord of the whole universe! And they tell us that He is going to be born in Bethlehem." And while they were saying that, while they were talking about that, in the very midst of their saying those words, suddenly the whole heavens burst into glory! Oh! it was wonderful. It was wonderful. "And an angel appeared, and said, In the city of Bethlehem, there is born to you this moment that King, the Son of David. And then there appeared with the angel a host from heaven" [Luke 2:8-13]. Can you just see that in your mind? The whole heavens filled, just covered with the glory of the angels of God, and they sang a song of praise and adoration to the Lord above, and to the little Child who was born in Bethlehem. "And the [shepherds] said, "We must go, we must see this wondrous sight. And they made their way with haste, and found the Babe in a manger, in a cattle stall" [Luke 2:15-16].
Did you ever see a little baby? Its little hands are so prettily fashioned, little fingers, and feet, and face, and nose, and ears. And they looked upon that little Child, and the mother, Mary, by His side, "Hush, hush; for the Child is asleep."
This little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.
Tread softly, you shepherds, to welcome your King.
And the lamb was so quiet, and the sheep and the cattle were so quiet, and the donkey was so quiet, the little Babe was sound asleep.
And in Jerusalem, the capital of Judea, Herod the king was on his throne. He was greatly troubled because news came to him that another King had been born in Israel. And he went to the doctors of the law, and to the rabbis, and to the learned men, and said, "Is this true, that there is to be born in Israel a King?" And they said, "Yes." And the king said, "Where is He to be born?" And they said, "Micah the prophet said in Bethlehem" [Matthew 2:1-6]. Think what king Herod had an opportunity to do: he had an opportunity to go see the Savior of the world; he had an opportunity to bow down before the Christ of God; he had an opportunity to offer to the little Child his throne and his crown, and to be the greatest king outside of God's Son the Lord ever knew. Did he do that? No, no, for his heart was filled with rejection and unbelief. He never heard the song in the air. He never heard the Baby's sweet cry – but we do. And listen to it now.
There's a song in the air! There's a star in the sky!
There's a mother's deep prayer, there's a Baby's low cry!
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King!
Hallelujah! Oh how the angels sang!
It was the birthday of our King!
Isn't that wonderful, that those wise men should be able to see in that Child the King of the earth and the Savior of our souls?
Now there stood by the side of the little Jesus, Joseph, and his mother, Mary. And upon a day there came to them an old prophet, and aged prophet. And he said to Mary the mother, that, "This Child is set for the falling and the rising of many. Yea," said the old prophet, "Yea," said that old preacher, "the day will come when a sword shall pierce thy soul also" [Luke 2:34-35]. What he was talking about was the day when the Child should grow up, and God should offer Him on the cross a sacrifice for our sins. That's the way we treated the sweet gift of God. The Lord gave Him to us in Bethlehem with an angel's song; and we gave Him back to God on the point of a Roman spear, when He was nailed and crucified for our sins [John 19:34]. But this is something that God did for us: He gave us the little Baby Jesus, that we might be saved. And we didn't know that when He first came. And this is a song about the little Baby Jesus, and how we treated Him; and it's going to be sung for us by Dan Beam.
Didn't know who You was.
We didn't know who You was.
We don't know who You is.
We didn't know 'twas You.
And we didn't know who You was.
And tonight, with the shepherds, with the wise men, and with our fathers and mothers, we're going to bow down before the sweet little Jesus Boy; and give our lives to Him, and to praise God for all that He means and has done for us. Now we're going to have a service, and I'll guide you in it along the way. And first of all, all of you boys and girls now, go back to where your daddy and mother are; you go back where your father and mother are. And as we begin our service of consecration, our fathers and mothers who have children that are six years old and under, I want you to bring them and come down here and stand by me. If you have a baby in the nursery, go get the baby in the nursery, and hold the child in your arms, and come and stand by me. All of our fathers and mothers who have children six years of age and under, and if the children are in the nursery, you go back to the nursery and bring the child, and come and stand here by me.
Now, Gary, you want to lead us in a song of some sweet meaning?
Jesus Christ, my Lord divine.
I think the father already has the child in his arms. If not, I want the father to hold the child because I'm going to ask you to kneel, and it will take the father to hold the child for you to kneel. Now with the children, in the presence of our blessed Lord, who looks down upon us from heaven, let us kneel in this prayer of consecration.
Our precious Jesus, who came into the world as a little baby, like these little babies, who grew up as a little child as these little children, who was obedient to His parents, who knew what it was to cry as a child, to be hungry and thirsty, and to be cared for by a dedicated father and mother, and our Lord, in the example that You knew growing up, as we grow up, may the heavenly Savior look down in blessing upon our children. And in the homes of these fathers and mothers, O blessed Lord, may the child grow up knowing Thee. And may the father and mother walk in the way before them, as to guide them in the paths of the sweet blessedness of Jesus. And for Thy goodness, Lord, and Thy remembrance as we dedicated our children to Thee, we shall thank Thee forever. In the Spirit of Jesus and in His precious name, amen.
Now, thank you, and you all may take your children back to the nursery or back to the seat. Now our second appeal is – and there'll be some of you fathers and mothers who also have a child between the ages of seven and twelve. If you have a child within the ages of seven and twelve, you bring the child with you and come and stand down here by me. If you have a child of the ages of seven and twelve, you come and bring the child, and stand by me.
Now, Gary, may we sing again? A child of the age of seven and twelve.
Now, just so you touch the child, just be sure to touch the child in this prayer. In a moment we'll kneel, and I want you to put your arm around the child, or your head on the child, or just some way; but be sure to touch the child, or the children. Now let us kneel in our prayer.
And our Lord, as we look upon these boys and girls, a little older, we remember that our precious Savior grew up in that carpenter's shop in Nazareth. And when He was twelve years of age, the age of some of these youngsters here, He was with His parents in the temple at Jerusalem; and every Sabbath day He was with them in the synagogue, listening to the Word of the Lord, and the Holy Spirit teaching and guiding Him into the work that He was to do to save us from our sins. And our Lord, as You grew up as a child, so You understand all of the heartaches and the joys that these boys and girls know as they grow up in their Christian homes. Now, Master, be good to them, take care of them, keep them strong and well, and speak to their hearts that they might find Thee as a personal Savior. And then, Lord, when the time comes, may the father and mother bring the child to the pastor, and say, "My little boy, my little girl has felt the moving Spirit of Jesus in his heart, in her heart, and wants to give life publicly in faith to Thee." Oh happy day! Glorious day! when our children come to know Jesus as a Savior. Bless Thou the father and the mother in the home in which the child grows up; and for them we shall thank Thee forever. In Thy dear name, amen.
Thank you, sweet. And you all may go back to your seats. And now we have one other invitation: sometimes a teenager may look upon himself as being somewhat removed and apart from his father and mother, but oh! we need our Christian parents more when we are teenagers than at any other time in our lives. So, if you are a teenager, I want you to come down here and stand by me with your father and with your mother. All the teenagers in the house, you come down with your father and mother and stand by me; all of our teenagers.
You've been here three times. I think that's glorious, just wonderful, just wonderful. One of our sweet couples was saying, "Pastor, we've bowed down here all three times." That's great! Rearing the children in the love and nurture of the Lord.
Our teenagers – isn't this a blessed sight? Oh, our youngsters mean so much, so very, very much! If you are a teenager, and if your parents are not here, then your grandparents, because I want us all to kneel down here together in this dedication to the Lord. All of our teenagers, I want you to come; all of our teenagers. I had no idea there were so many of our teenagers here in the service tonight. Oh, it is blessed! It is wonderful. This is our immediate church of tomorrow. It is glorious! It is glorious!
Now, we're very crowded together, I know, but insofar as we can, let's all kneel together. And as you kneel, as you kneel, put your hand on the head of the child, or put your arms around them; and we're going to have a prayer of dedication and consecration together. All right.
And our blessed Savior, as the years passed the little Baby Jesus grew to be a child, and then a young man in His teens, working there in the carpenter's shop. And there are not any problems of our teenagers that our Lord Jesus doesn't know all about. He also was a teenager; had the frustrations and all of the problems that assail our boys and our girls, these young men and women. And our Lord, in this tragic day in which our teenagers now live, O precious Savior, guide and help them. They are assailed on every side. O God in heaven, how we pray that the Spirit of Jesus will see them through, will bless and direct them, that God will keep them from all of those habits that can destroy their lives. And there are so many of them, and the world offers it to them, to sell it to them for a profit; and so many of our teenagers fall into those tragic ways. Dear God, deliver our boys and girls from any such catastrophic habit as shall slowly but surely waste away and erode out their moral life and their physical strength. Lord, may our teenagers be tall and straight, and sun-crowned; and may they love God, and place Jesus first in their lives. Then as the father and the mother looks upon them, may they do it with infinite pride, with infinite joy. O Lord God, help us and bless us, as in the home we see these boys and girls turn into young men and women. And may they be a joy and an honor to their parents, as they walk in the light of the blessing of the God our Savior, who loved us and gave Himself for us. In Thy precious name, amen.
And thank you, sweet, dear families. The Lord bless and keep you, every one.
Now, Gary, we're going to sing a hymn of appeal. And while we sing the hymn of appeal, somebody you to give himself in trust to the Lord Jesus, somebody to put his life here in the fellowship of this dear church, somebody you who'd like to re-give himself to the Lord, you'd just like to do it, as the Spirit of Christ shall speak to your heart, make the decision now, and come. For any reason that God would lead you to respond tonight, do it. "I want to take Jesus as my Savior," or, "I want to be baptized," or, "I want to put my life in the church," or, "I'd just like to tell Jesus all over again how much I praise His name for His wonderful goodness to me." If God puts it in your heart to respond, do it now. Make it now, come now, while we stand and while we sing.

Harris Tied For Lead After Day One of John Dallio Memorial
Joe Harris is tied for the lead after day one at the John Dallio Memorial.
Junior Joe Harris (Washington, Iowa/Washington) finds himself in a tie for the lead at the John Dallio Memorial through 36 holes of the 54-hole event, held at Ruffled Feathers G.C. in Lemont, Ill. Valparaiso is tied for sixth place in the team standings through Saturday's action.
Valpo opened the tournament with a team round of 312 Saturday morning, but improved by eight shots in the afternoon, posting a middle-18 score of 304 to end the day at 616, tied for sixth place with Seton Hall. The Crusaders were one of just two teams to improve from the first round to the second round, as the average individual score went up over two strokes. Missouri State leads the team standings, entering Sunday's final round with a score of 597.
"We really struggled in our first round of the day, especially on the back nine," said Crusader head coach David Gring. "Our putting was poor, and the execution of important shots was not there. The guys bounced back with the second-best score of the afternoon round, and we have something positive to build on."
Harris started the tournament innocuously enough, shooting an opening-round 75, but came back with a 71 in the afternoon, one of just two sub-par rounds in the second round over the par-72, 6,898-yard circuit. Harris' score of two-over 146 leaves him tied with SIU Edwardsville's Dalton Charboneau heading into the final 18 holes on Sunday.
"Joe had one of his best 36-hole scores of the fall season, with no three-putts and no double bogeys," said Gring. "He was extremely consistent throughout the entire day, and played very strong for us."
Senior Kyle Henning (Brookfield, Wis./East), who won this very event last season, posted scores of 78 and 75 on Saturday and enters the final round tied for 17th at 153. Junior Eric Winters (Elgin, Ill./St. Edward) is tied for 36th at 158 after rounds of 77 and 81, while freshman Peter Webb (Madison, Wis./James Madison Memorial) is one shot back of Winters at 159 (82-77) in a tie for 41st place.
Freshman Nick Seitz (Xenia, Ohio/Carroll) rounds out the Crusader team this weekend, entering Sunday tied for 60th at 174. Playing as an individual, redshirt sophomore Jared Magoline (Fond du Lac, Wis./Fond du Lac [Marquette]) is tied for 48th with a two-round total of 162.
"Ruffled Feathers Golf Club is a demanding golf course, and while the temperatures and conditions were ideal, the wind presented a challenge for us today," said Gring. "We are looking forward to the final round tomorrow."
Valparaiso closes out the John Dallio Memorial on Sunday morning with the final 18 holes of the tournament.


OXFORD, Miss. – The University of Mississippi's Office of Sustainability is seeking faculty, staff and community member volunteers to help sort recyclables collected from this year's Egg Bowl as part of UM's Green Grove Gameday Recycling Program.
"Sorts-Giving" will take place at the Oxford Recycling Center from 1 to 3 p.m. on Monday, November 6. To sign up to volunteer, click here.
Sorting gameday recyclables is a component of the university's Green Grove Gameday Recycling Program, which is operated by student interns in the Office of Sustainability with the help of hundreds of student volunteers each semester. In addition to passing out recycling bags and speaking with tailgaters on gameday, volunteers gather each Monday after home football games to sort the recycling by hand.
All "Sorts-Giving" volunteers will earn a free Green Grove t-shirt made from recycled plastic bottles and recycled cotton. Participants in recycling trivia will also have the opportunity to win other sustainability related prizes like reusable bags, water bottles and fork and spoon sets.
So far this semester, 175 student volunteers have recycled more than 2.5 tons of materials that would otherwise be sent to landfill.
The Green Grove program was established in 2008 and is a partnership between the Office of Sustainability, Landscape Services and the City of Oxford's recycling department. Through Green Grove, tailgaters can recycle plastic bottles, aluminum cans and Solo cups on gamedays. The Office of Sustainability ships the Solo cups to Terracycle for recycling, while the other items are processed through the Oxford Recycling Center.
For more information on "Sorts-Giving" or the Office of Sustainability, email green@olemiss.edu or visit sustain.olemiss.edu.

Biografia
Figlia di Olga Bondi e di Davide Cabessa, fu allieva di Carolus-Duran. Frequentò nella prima giovinezza Redon, Monet, Degas, Cézanne, Rosso, Cocteau, Braque, Miró.

Nel 1904 prese parte a due collettive al Salon d'Automne e alla Exposition d'Art di Versailles e conobbe il pianista Giorgio Levi, compagno della sua vita. Giorgio Levi fu un pianista amato da Gabriele d'Annunzio e da Arthur Rubinstein.  D'Annunzio lo cita più volte nel suo Notturno: "...Giorgio mi suona un'aria di Gerolamo Frescobaldi detta la Frescobalda. Il cielo grande di Ferrara s'inarca sulla mia malinconia.", " Nell'insonnia il preludio di Aleksandr Skrjabin mi passa e ripassa sulla fronte.."  Rubinstein suonò con Levi in una serata memoranda dalle dieci alle due di notte e dichiarò: "Una serata sublime, indimenticabile, avrei continuato a suonare fino alla morte". Nella loro casa di Venezia Alis e Giorgio accolsero importanti nomi della cultura.

Nel 1925 Alis Levi fece una personale alla Bottega di Poesia di Milano con presentazione di Nino Barbantini:  "Il silenzio più profondo per lei è colmo di echi... le cose reali si rivelano con la spettralità e l'immaterialità delle evocazioni effimere come se sgorgassero, allucinatorie e fantastiche, dall'incantesimo di un accordo". Nel 1934 fu presente alla Biennale di Venezia con un pannello laccato "Gli Angeli al Santo Sepolcro". Durante la guerra la pittrice trovò rifugio prima a Cortina d'Ampezzo, poi a Roma. Alla fine delle ostilità partecipò a varie edizioni della Quadriennale di Roma (1955-56), della Biennale di Venezia e, nel 1953, espose le sue opere con una personale alla Galleria veneziana il Cavallino di Carlo Cardazzo, presentata da Rodolfo Pallucchini: "I Paesaggi di Burano sono tra le cose più notevoli che la Levi abbia finora dipinto:essi non sono colti sul "motiv", cioè non sono fugaci sensazioni, ma sono elaborati del ricordo, cioè vissuti nei loro nuclei elementari di poche dense strutture plastiche affacciate sull'acqua, in una meditazione poetica che conferisce loro, in quel colore denso, pulviscolare, un aspetto di cupa solitudine.".

Trasferitasi definitivamente a Cortina d'Ampezzo, fece della sua casa uno dei salotti letterari più raffinati della seconda metà del Novecento.

Nel 1961 fece una personale alla Galleria Santo Stefano di Venezia, nel 1964 a Roma alla Galleria Anthea con presentazione di Ferruccio Ulivi: "le forme di questi quadri lussureggiano di vellutato splendore, o si vedono traslocare sul punto di dissolversi, un po' come fiale o essenze che nessuno avrebbe saputo dipingere così". Nel 1968 alla Galleria Medea di Cortina, nel 1970 alla Galleria Hausmann sempre a Cortina con presentazione di Dino Buzzati, nel 1973 alla Galleria Santo Stefano a Venezia, nel 1976 alla Galleria due Ruote di Vicenza e nel 1980 alla Galleria Piccinini di Cortina con presentazione di Alessandro Bonsanti.

Alis Levi raccontò la sua infanzia parigina nel libro edito da De Luca "Souvenirs d'une enfant de la Belle Époque". Di particolare interesse la descrizione degli amici di Marcel Proust, che diverranno poi i modelli per la Recherche: Robert de Montesquiou (Charlus), Boniface de Castellane (Saint-Loup), Winnaretta Singer de Polignac (Madame Verdurin) e, naturalmente, Charles Haas (Charles Swann) amante di Sarah Bernhardt.

• Always treat any firearm as if it were loaded!!!
• Never allow the muzzle to point at anything you are not willing to see destroyed!!
• Be sure of your target and what lies behind it!!
• Keep your finger off trigger and outside trigger guard until you are on target and ready to fire!!
• Alcohol, Drugs, horseplay and gunpowder do not mix!!
• Always safely store ammunition of any kind separate from your firearms!!
• Always keep firearms stored in a locked and safe place out of the reach of your children and children's friends!!
• Ammunition needs to be stored in a cool dry and locked up location. NEVER assume that a bullet will only go off in a loaded gun!!!
Educate your children of your family rules on firearms and basic Firearm Safety. Show them the mechanics of different guns and how they operate. Show them the different types of ammunition each gun uses, and teach them that certain guns shoot a specific caliber of bullet and they do not mix. Teach them that they can handle your guns when you are present but only then. Always set a good example and keep your guns locked up and stored somewhere safe. Teach them that they are not to play around with guns when their friends are over. Hiding your gun is not the best practice because kids have a tendency to want to explore and find things that are not in plain view especially if they know that you possess a firearm and have seen Mom and Dad with a gun. Kids, especially boys, are fascinated with guns. Putting your gun out of reach only works until your child learns to walk, climb, and use a stepping-stool or a ladder. NEVER make the mistake that your child is too weak to use a gun!!!
Talk with your children about the risk of gun injuries that can happen outside your home in places that they may visit or play. Teach your children to stay away from guns when they are in the homes of their friends. Speak with the parents of your children's friends to determine whether they have a gun in the home. If they do, urge them to empty it out and lock it up.
There are many different types, sizes and costs of safes to keep your firearms locked up and secure. There is no right or wrong type of safe. Determine what kind you want or what you can afford and find something that you can lock up and that it isn't the type of safe that can easily be broken into by your children or children's friends. If you do not want a safe to store your firearms in there are all types of locks that you can just as easily put on your firearm to keep it secured. The Rexburg Police Department provides locks free of charge so that your firearm can be secured safely. If you choose a Safe or Lock that has a key to keep your firearm locked up with, remember to put the key in a place that your children do not know of so that your firearms stay secured when you are not present.

Scene 2 – June 28, 1994 – February 20, 1997
After the appeal was denied, Dwight chose to pull out the big guns. His attorney, on June 28, 1994, filed Notice of Appeal with the Department of the Interior, Office of Hearings and Appeal {20-24}, in Arlington, Virginia.
On July 18, The Solicitor's Office of the Department of the Interior, Northwest Region (Portland) filed a Motion and Memorandum to Dismiss the appeal {25-48}.
On July 15, 1994, the Office of Hearings and Appeals docketed the Appeal {50-51}.
On July 19, the Office of Hearings and Appeals acknowledged the receipt of the Motion to Dismiss and set August 5 as the date for Hammond to respond to that Motion {52}.
On July 21, Hammond's attorney responds, citing the information contained in the Notice of Appeal as authority for the Office of Hearings and Appeals to hear the appeal {53-54}.
During this process, chronologically, another factor comes in to play. Though the entire case is included with the documents, the Order for Summary Judgment {56-73} is included. It appears that the Hammonds had filed against the Water Resource Department of Oregon and the Water Resources Commission, State of Oregon. The action was to restore historical water rights at the "Bird Waterhole".
A brief summary of some of the actions that led to the decision are as follows:
On September 28, 1987, the Burns District of the BLM filed an application to construct (it was in actuality a pre-existing pond) Bird Waterholes Reservoir. The Oregon Water Resource Department (WRD) "R-69366" as a case number.
A technical review by the WRD determined that the Waterhole was land owned by the United States Government, and that "the use continued to be for wildlife and livestock".
On November 14, 1994, the BLM was notified that the approval was only deficient a "CWRE (Certified Water Rights Examiner) approval" stamp.
A letter dated November 22nd, 1994, was sent to the Defendant Water Resources Department from John Doebel of the Portland Office of the Fish and Wildlife Service advising the Water Resources Department that the pre-existing pond known as Bird Waterhole was upon lands subject to the jurisdiction of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service as a part of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. Mr. Doebel asserted that the Service was entitled to hold all water rights on the said Refuge and requested withdrawal of Application No. R-69366.
On November 22, 1994, the Fish and Wildlife Service (Portland) requested withdrawal of the application No. R-69366. The FWS claimed jurisdiction based upon a September 24, 1957, by Public Land Order 1511 (this will be mentioned, later). It claimed that the public land on which the Waterhole was situated was incorporated into the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge by that PLO. Apparently, the parent organization, the BLM, wasn't aware that the Waterhole was on Refuge Land, or, they were bound by Oregon statutes with regard to water usage. In either circumstance, it appears more likely that they could not get a Certified Water Rights Examiner to certify away the Hammond's rights to the water, so they sought another way of contravening those rights.
On December 10, 1994, Dwight Hammond obtained an "Assignment" of application "R-69366" and provided a "Declaration and Recommendation of the Watermaster, District #10, William H. Beal" {61-62}, to wit:
I have personal knowledge of the existence of the Bird Waterhole, the subject File R 69366, and had such knowledge for many years prior to the date of the application. Until August 3, 1994 the Bird Waterhole was accessible for the stock watering of domestic livestock grazing the adjacent lands to the north and east. During that time the boundary fence of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge was in place west of the Bird Waterhole.
"Although unfenced, the legal boundary of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge is approximately 1070 feet north of the fence constructed on August 3, 1994 by the claimed authority of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge Administration and is approximately 1240 feet north of the Bird Waterhole.
At the time of the application the land east of the Bird Waterhole was public land within the jurisdiction of the applicant, the Bureau of Land Management and the Fish and Wildlife Service. The public land was exclusively grazed by livestock belonging to Hammond Ranches, Inc. (see attached Grazing Permits). During the pendency of this application public land was conveyed by the United States of America to Hammond Ranches, Inc., with all appurtenances [emphasis. supplied] (See attached patent.). In the spring of 1994 conversations occurred between representatives of the Oregon Water Resources Department and the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge pertaining to the current validity of water rights within the Refuge (see attached letter). At that time the Harney County Judge and I examined status of the Bird Waterhole and concluded that acess and use was an appurtenance of the lands conveyed to and now owned by Hammond Ranches, Inc. (see attached letter).
I recommend that the Assignment of the Application, which is the subject of File R 7937, to Hammond Ranches, Inc. should be allowed."
Hammond Ranches, Inc. obtained Land Patent from the United States of America, signed September 22, 1989 {62}. A portion of the Land Patent:
A conveyance of the following property in Section 23, T. 30 S., R. 31 E., in which Bird Waterhole is located: "W1/2 of the NE1/4, SE1/4 of the NE1/4, NW1/4 and E1/2 of the SW1/4 and SE1/4". The Bird Waterhole is located just inside the East line of the W1/2 of the S/W1/4 of Section 23. Plaintiff Hammond Ranches thus acquired from the United States government the quarter section to the North of Bird Waterhole and the East one-half of the quarter section within a few feet to the East of the West quarter section on which the Bird Waterhole is located.
A December 6, 1994 letter {63} from FWS to WRD regarding the application (R-69366) states:
The application was made by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) on September 27, 1987. The BLM conveyed to Hammond Ranches, Inc. certain lands on September 22, 1989, by a patent of that date which is enclosed. Lands conveyed by this patent were served by the Bird Waterhole which is the subject of this application and, therefore, any rights, title, and interest in this facility and application, if any, has been conveyed to Hammond Ranches, Inc., which is now the real party in interest.
We can see that the ineptness of the BLM and FWS, in an effort to deny the Hammonds their lawful, as well as granted by the government, water rights, resulted in the Circuit Court awarding the Hammonds the rights to the use of the Bird Waterhole. We can also conclude that the government was not happy losing this case, even though they were not a party, but the Court held, on December 7, 1995, against the Oregon water boards by sustaining the Hammond's rights {56-73}.
A series of handwritten notes, dated July 30, 1996 {74-75}, September 2, 1996 {76-81}, and September 3, 1996 {82-86}, seem to indicate both strategy and deception. For instance, a road grader was left parked where it should not have been, so it is suggested that it be said that it "broke down".
A handwritten note dated December 7, 1996 {82}, discussing trying to get approval to sue (apparently the Hammonds), however, recognizing that they have to get Washington to approve the suit. It also discusses what has to be done to set up the case against the Hammonds.
In what appears to be a circular letter, dated January 22, 1987 {88-90}, from the Secretary of the Interior, Bruce Babbitt, to Assistant Secretary; Fish and Wildlife and Parks; Assistant Secretary; Land and Minerals Management; Assistant Secretary Indian Affairs; Assistant Secretary, Water and Science, a document titled "Interim Departmental Policy on Revised Statute 2477 Grant of Right-for Public Highways; Revocation of December 7, 1988 Policy", we find the following:
Revised Statute 2477, which provided that "title right of way for the construction of highways over public lands, not reserved for public uses, is hereby granted," was repealed on October 21, 1976, by the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA). 43 U.S.C. § 1701 et seq. FLPMA did not terminate valid rights-of-way established under R. S. 2477 prior to its repeal. The existence and extent of valid rights-of-way previously established pursuant to R.S. 2477 remains an issue in some places.
States or local governments asserting that R.S. 2477 rights-of-way exist on federal lands can in appropriate situations file a lawsuit in federal court seeking to establish the validity of that assertion. In the alternative or in advance of filing such a lawsuit, the Department of the Interior may also be asked to give its views on such assertions.
On December 7, 1988, Secretary Hodel signed a memorandum that discussed his policy for making determinations whether the Department would recognize claims for rights-of-way under R.S. 2477. That policy was not promulgated according to rulemaking procedures and is not a rule. In fact, because the Department has not been making such determinations in recent years, that policy has not been carried out for several years. The purpose of this memo is to revoke the 1988 policy and establish a revised policy for carrying out any determinations the Department might be called upon to make regarding R.S. 2477.
At the request of Congress, the Department submitted a Report to Congress on R.S. 2477 in June 1993. In accordance with that Report's recommendations, the Department determined that regulations should be written for R.S. 2477, and a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking was published in 1994, 59 Fed. Reg. 39,216 (August 1, 1994). Thereafter, Congress attached a provision to the Department's appropriation for fiscal year 1996 that prohibited using funds appropriated by that statute for "developing, promulgating, and thereafter implementing a rule concerning rights-of-way under section 2477 of the Revised Statutes." Pub. L. 10 4-134, § 110, 110 Stat. 1321-177 (1996). The Department's appropriation for fiscal year 1997 permits the publication of final regulations but says they shall not take effect unless expressly authorized by an Act of Congress subsequent to the date of enactment of this Act." Pub. L. 104-208, § 108, 110 Star. 3009 (1996).
I addressed the issue of whether the Department should continue to make determinations regarding R.S. 2477 claims in my May 25, 1993, letter to Congress transmitting the Department's Report: "Until final rules are effective, I have instructed the Bureau of Land Management to defer any processing of R.S. 2477 assertions except in cases where there is a demonstrated, compelling, and immediate need to make such determinations." This instruction is still in effect.
Revised Policy on R.S. 2477 Rights-of-way Determinations
Those making claims of the existence of valid R.S. 2477 rights-of-way continue to have the option of seeking to establish the validity of their claims in court. Nevertheless, it is possible that the Department may be asked, in advance of final rules taking effect, to make such determinations on the basis that such a demonstrated, compelling, and immediate need is claimed to exist. If so, until final rules are published and take effect, determinations regarding R.S. 2477 rights-of-way will be made by the Secretary of the Interior, in consultation with the appropriate Interior agency, according to the following policy:
Claims. An entity wishing the Secretary or any agencies of the Department of the Interior to make a determination whether an R.S. 2477 right-of-way exists shall file a written request with the Interior agency having jurisdiction over the lands underlying the asserted right-of-way, along with an explanation of why there is a compelling and immediate need for such a determination. The request should be accompanied by documents and maps that the entity wishes the agency to consider in making its recommendation to the Secretary. If, based on the information provided, the agency does not believe a compelling and immediate need for the determination exists, it should without further examination recommend the Secretary defer processing until final rules are effective.
Withdrawals and Reservations. The agency shall consult the public land records maintained by the Bureau of Land Management to determine the status of the lands over which the claimed right-of-way passes. If such lands were withdrawn, reserved, or otherwise unavailable pursuant to R.S. 2477 at the time that the highway giving rise to the claim of an R.S. 2477 right-of-way was allegedly constructed and remained unavailable through October 21, 1976, the agency will recommend the Secretary deny the claim.
Construction. If the lands were not withdrawn, reserved, or otherwise unavailable pursuant to R.S. 2477, the agency shall examine all available documents and maps and perform an on-site examination to determine whether construction on the alleged right-of-way had occurred prior to the repeal of R.S. 2477 on October 21, 1976. If the agency determines that construction did not occur. the agency will recommend the Secretary deny the claim.
Highway. The agency shall evaluate whether the alleged right-of-way constitutes a highway. A highway is a thoroughfare used prior to October 21, 1976, by the public for the passage of vehicles carrying people or goods from place to place. If the agency determines that the alleged right-of-way does not constitute a highway, the agency will recommend the Secretary deny the claim.
Role of State Law. In making its recommendations, the agency shall apply state law in effect on October 21, 1976, to the extent that it is consistent with federal law. The agency will in no case recommend approval of claims that do not comply with the requirements of applicable state law.
Secretary's Determination. The agency will make recommendations on the above described issues to the Secretary. The Secretary will approve or disapprove those recommendations.
The December 7, 1988 policy, including attachment 1, is hereby revoked.
So, the "FLPMA did not terminate valid rights-of-way established under R. S. 2477 prior to its repeal", thought it is clearly a means to remove a right that had existed, especially in the Western lands, that had previously existed. He says that state and local government can file suit, though there is no provision if the continued use by the public, absent a lawsuit brought by a government entity. That would deny a use of right if enjoyed only by a few, unless they cajoled the government entity in spending the taxes of others for what could turn out to be an expensive and protracted effort to retain a right previously enjoyed. This kind of does away with the concept of government being instituted among men to protect those rights.
Later, he requires "construction", as opposed to maintenance. So, that pretty much excludes the rights that will be addressed, later, when we look more closely at R. S. 2477. Construction quite simply, is an improvement to a standard that did not exist 100 years ago, is now extremely expensive, and like the lawsuit, requires expenditure in government fighting government — a waste on both sides. However, he does concede to state law — but, only if "it is consistent with federal law". What kind of double-speak is that?
Less than a month later, on February 20, 1997, Babbitt apparently realized that his policy was unclear, so he sent out a "Clarification to January 22, 1997, "Interim Departmental Policy on Revised Statute 2477 Grant of Right-of-Way for Public Highways" {93}. He must have put some real effort into the policy, which had to be clarified, but not to substance, rather, simply to procedure.
Now, Babbitt's policy is inconsistent with "Public Land Order 1511", previously mentioned when the Fish and Wildlife Service (Portland) requested withdrawal of the application No. R-69366 (November 22, 1994). The Order {94}:
Public Land Order 1511
ENLARGING MALHEUR NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE; REVOKING EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 929 OF AUGUST 11, 1908, ESTABLISHING LAKE MALHEUR RESERVATION, AND EXECUTIVE ORDERS NO. 5891 OF JULY 16, 1932, AND NO. 6152 OF JUNE 1, 1933, WITHDRAWING LANDS FOR CLASSIFICATION; AND AMENDING EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 7106 OF JULY 19, 1935
By virtue of the authority vested in the President, and pursuant to Executive Order No. 10355 of May 26, 1952, it is ordered as follows:
1. Executive Order No. 7106 of July 19, 1935, establishing the Malheur Migratory Bird Refuge which was redesignated the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge by Proclamation No. 2416 of July 25, 1940, is hereby amended by eliminating from the first paragraph thereof the words, "and in order to effectuate further the purposes of the Migratory Bird Conservation Act (45 Stat. 1222)".
2. Subject to valid existing rights, the following-described public lands in Harney County, Oregon, are hereby withdrawn from all forms of appropriation under the public-land laws, including the mining but not the mineral leasing laws, and reserved under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife of the Department of the Interior as an addition to the 'Malheur National Wildlife Refuge':
[Then goes on to describe the lands include, which includes the land where the Bird Waterhole is located.]
Here we have "Subject to valid existing rights", not subject to construction, lawsuit, or other divisive means of denial of those rights, simply subject to those "valid existing rights". Article I, § 9, clause 3 of the Constitution limits the authority of the Congress, and since they are the only constitutionally recognized legislative body, limits laws in that "No… ex post facto Law shall be passed." Quite simply, that which is done cannot be undone. It is often referred to as the grandfather provision, providing that if a law is enacted that prohibits something that was previously done, legally, then subject to certain limitations, that which was done prior to the enactment remains legal.

Q: cmd, batch cd variable space excaping So i was making a batch file for creating a folder with HTML content. The batch file basically executes a python file, and, as I'm going to make the batch file global, the python file runs with a parameter which is the directory I want to create the folder on.
The python file is working correctly because I've tested it many many times!
It works like this:
C:/Users/Tiago^ Oliveira/programming/python/random/HTML_Folder/HTML_Folder.py here_the_directory_we_want

and my batch file is like this:
C:/Users/Tiago^ Oliveira/programming/python/random/HTML_Folder/HTML_Folder.py %cd%

Whenever I execute the batch file in the C: drive it gets me this error:

FileNotFoundError: [WinError 3] O sistema não conseguiu localizar o caminho especificado: 'C:\\Users\\Tiago\\html\\'

Which basically means the parameter is C:\\Users\\Tiago but in reality when I do ECHO %cd% it prints: C:\Users\Tiago Oliveira\programming\python\random\HTML_Folder, so this means there is a problem with my user name, (which, BTW, I cannot change).
I've tried to replace the space between the names with the "^ " to escape the space and a lot of different options and I can't figure this thing out.
So I would like a little help for the ones that know what I can do to make this work.

A: The path separator for cmd.exe is a REVERSE SOLIDUS (backslash).
No CARET is needed.
Paths need to use QUOTATION MARK characters.
"C:\Users\Tiago Oliveira\programming\python\random\HTML_Folder\HTML_Folder.py" "%cd%"

If this should always be under the current user's account directory, it would be better to use:
"%USERPROFILE%\programming\python\random\HTML_Folder\HTML_Folder.py" "%cd%"

Q: Pascal's theorem by Bezout's theorem I need to prove the following theorem

Let the hexagon $ABCDEF$ be inscribed in the nondegenerate conic $q=V(f)$. Assume that $A,B,C,D,E,F$ are distinct. Let $P=\overline{FA}\cap \overline{CD}, Q=\overline{AB}\cap \overline{DE}$ and $R=\overline{BC}\cap \overline{EF}$. Prove that $P, Q$ and $R$ are collinear.

I need to do it in two steps, in the first step we take $G\in q$ to be any other point and then I need to show that there is a homogeneous cubic $c$ so that $V(c)$ vanishes at $G$ and at $A,B,C,D,E,F,P,Q,R$.
Then I need to show that $V(c)$ is the union of $q$ and a line $l$ and that $l$ goes through $P,Q$ and $R$.
I am not sure how to construct the required cubic $c$.

A: The most direct route to prove this (as mentioned below in the comments) is using Bezout's theorem, as seen here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal%27s_theorem#Proof_using_B.C3.A9zout.27s_theorem
Another way of proving Pascal's Theorem is using the Cayley-Bacharach Theorem. In fact the proof of the Cayley-Bacharach theorem uses Bezout's theorem a few times.
Partition your set of 6 lines into two sets of three, call them $X$ and $Y$, such that $X\cap Y$ is exactly the 9 points $A,B,C,D,E,F,P,Q,R$. $X$ and $Y$ are each degenerate cubics. Now let us define $Z$ as the union of the conic $q$ and the line passing through $P$ and $Q$. $Z$ is also a conic, and it passes through 8 of the 9 intersection points of $X$ and $Y$, so by the Cayley-Bacharch Theorem, it must contain the $9^{th}$ point (which is $R$ in this case). This means $R$ has to be on the line passing through $P$ and $Q$, that is, the three points are collinear.

David Archer is an Amazon number one and USA Today bestselling author best known for writing a series of very popular mystery thrillers such as the Noah Wolf and the Sam Prichard series. Archer was born in Bakersfield, California, where he spent much of his childhood with his missionary family. David's approach in the writing of his novels is to hit deep and keep the readers entertained, craving more with every flip of the page. The novels are a combination of suspense, thrillers, and mysteries made to get the heart pumping. Writing takes up most of his days as he has a habit of doing at least three thousand words a day. When he is not yelling at his screen while pounding out his next bestseller, you may find him building custom cars, writing poetry or creating music. Archer is not your usual writer and claims that his novels write themselves given that he never sets out a plot or makes plan in what his characters will be getting up to. It seems to be working great for him given that his Noah Wolf and Sam Prichard series of novels are some of the most popular suspense thrillers out there.
The Sam Prichard series features the lead character, a retired police officer turned private investigator Sam Prichard. Prichard is a cross between James Bond and Jack Reacher, who is ready to take up any case and never gives up until its resolution. Unlike your typical secret agent, Prichard does not have the advantage of special training but rather depends on his spirit rather than specialized intelligence or military training. The Sam Prichard series of novels was born of the need for a character that would tackle some of the most complex of cases and never give up until they got to the truth. While the mystery suspense thriller genre has many such characters, Prichard is a different type of character as he does not think of himself as superman but rather a good man who cannot help but be involved in events and happenings that have the potential to change his world. Prichard is a retired cop rather than an active one, which gives him police skills but also more proactive license than that, offered to an active one. Moreover, given the many restrictions and rule-books of the organized police force, the lead can act on his conscience without having to worry of consequences or becoming a black sheep. With the tendency to view police officers as overly authoritarian or corrupt, the fact that Sam comes from outside the organized force makes him a more personable character. With no restrictions on associations, Sam can also freely associate with less savory characters such as the young independent hacker through whom he can get insight and information, that he would otherwise not get had he been a regular policeman.
The series of novels incorporate all the elements you would expect to find in a good mystery including suspense, thrills, and just a dash of romance. In the first novel in the series, we are introduced to Sam Prichard a former police officer who stumbles into a private investigator job to find that he can actually be very good at it. David Archer shows real talent in writing a very realistic story with multidimensional characters that develop over the course of the novels. What makes these novels so personable is that as well as telling intriguing mysteries they provide interesting stories on the backgrounds of the characters that create a connection with the reader. Sam Prichard the lead character in the series appears in every novel together with a fascinating slew of recurring characters. Nonetheless, given the different plot lines in each novel, the novels may be read as standalones. David Archer writes novels full of twists and turns with suspenseful cliffhangers that he uses to draw in the reader before resolving them right at the very end. The lead character Sam is a very good PI – a seasoned cop who grows over the course of the novel series to fall in love and become one of the best private investigators in town.
"The Grave Man", the first novel in the Sam Prichard series is a captivating novel that introduces the lead character Sam Prichard. Sam is an ex-cop that was forced to retire from the force after he took a bullet at the hip that made it impossible for him to continue serving as a police officer. Now trying to adapt to life as a civilian, learning to ride a motorcycle, and walk again, he finds life barely bearable. Given his expertise, the community turns to him to help find a missing child, which proves a lure too hard to resist. He teams up with Indiana Perkins a computer whizz and working with her, he soon becomes one of the most efficient private investigators his district has ever known. He tracks and retrieves the lost child, but he is now embroiled in a bigger case that may just turn out to be a drug war. Prichard has no way out of his predicament other than to fight and resolve it if he is to save his own life and that of the computer whizz he has recently become so fond of. Throwing the rule-book out of the window, he is ready to do all in his power to come out on top and ensure the safety of the people he cherishes.
"Death Sung Softly" is the second enthralling novel in the Sam Prichard series of novels. After his success in the first novel, Sam sets up his own office as a private investigator and immediately gets his first case. A local rock singer named Barry Wallace that was on the verge of breaking out has gone missing to turn up dead without his limbs. It is now up to Sam to try to find the killer and unravel the mystery of Barry's murder. Conducting a series of investigations, the evidence points to a well-known talent agent, and a search of estate unearths a shocking discovery. Barry is just one of the men that had nothing to gain from Barry's death. Things get even more interesting when the agent hires Sam to prove his innocence. He now follows a convoluted set of clues trying to determine just who could be responsible for killing the budding artist. Meanwhile he has been convinced into replacing Barry as the new lead singer in his former band. Now juggling two new careers will he sing his heart out or will he find a vicious killer?

Canada's luge team settles a beef and Edward Snowden adjusts to Russia - Macleans.ca
Canada's luge team settles a beef and Edward Snowden adjusts to Russia
Newsmakers this week
by Aaron Wherry and Jaime Weinman
Jeff McIntosh / CP
Meat the team
The members of Canada's luge team could use some sponsorship money—but in lieu of money, they will accept meat. After declaring themselves "for sale" when a deal with a title sponsor fell through, the team was presented with the offer of a single cow from Alberta rancher Mark Barnert—father to the team's strength and conditioning coach, Jeremiah. The half-dozen lugers happily accepted their cow, or, more specifically, 100 lb. of beef. "They straight up gave us beef," said team member Alex Gough. "We got a cow we split six ways." Several members of the team are considered medal contenders for next year's Olympics in Russia. Conceivably few other teams will be as well fed.
Message to Madge
The Alamo Drafthouse theatre chain takes cinema etiquette seriously, with a strict no-talking and no-texting policy that applies to all audience members—even the Material Girl. After Madonna was caught using her BlackBerry throughout the New York Film Festival premiere of the slavery drama 12 Years a Slave last week, Alamo CEO Tim League issued an online missive, banning the pop star from any of the Alamo's locations across the United States until she apologized. "I'm going to enforce it," League told Entertainment Weekly. "I'm serious—but I don't think it really affects her life that much."
Another Detroit disaster
Detroit has been in such a bad way lately that the news of its former mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick, getting sentenced to 28 years in prison hardly seemed like the worst thing that could happen to the city. Kilpatrick, who was in office from 2002-08, was on trial for using city contracts to increase his own fortune, along with other corruption scandals. The judge who sentenced the former mayor said he was "not holding Kilpatrick responsible for the city's bankruptcy." Still, the stiff sentence should give Detroiters the misguided feeling that there's some justice in the world.
Drinking Mother Russia's milk
Edward Snowden, who leaked classified information about U.S. spying programs and subsequently sought refuge in Russia, is getting well-adjusted to his new homeland. According to Snowden's first American visitors, who arrived last week to present him with an award for his whistle-blowing, Snowden is "getting to understand Russia and its culture and the people." But Snowden is not doing so well that he is free from worry about his fate: Neither his visitors nor Snowden's father Lon, who arrived in Moscow last week to see him, are telling anyone where exactly in the country he's living.
Hero overboard?
Richard Phillips, the American captain who became a hostage to save his ship from Somali pirates, is now being played by Tom Hanks on the big screen. And you know what happens when someone gets famous: lawsuits! Phillips is being sued by members of his crew, who claim they only got attacked because he ignored naval warnings of a piracy problem close to shore, disregarding the notices because it saved the ship's company money. Phillips has said the suit is meritless, but one thing is for sure: If he had played it safe, no one would know who he is today. Certainly not Tom Hanks.
Poor judgment
The mock trial of David Suzuki—to be staged at the Royal Ontario Museum as part of an exhibit on climate—has lost its real judge. Ontario Superior Court Justice Harriet Sachs has recused herself after questions were asked about her involvement in light of the fact that her common-law husband, Clayton Ruby, is involved in a dispute with the federal government concerning environmental regulations. Suzuki is to face charges of "seditious libel" after he accused Canada of crimes against the environment. At the conclusion of the trial, the public will be able to vote online on whether to find him guilty.
After 51 days in an Egyptian prison, John Greyson and Tarek Loubani arrived back in Canada last weekend to cheers and relief from loved ones and supporters. The filmmaker and doctor were detained by authorities in Egypt after a violent clash between the government and demonstrators. The two complained of brutal conditions in prison and were freed after lobbying from the federal government. "In hindsight it's obvious we made mistakes," Loubani said upon arriving in Toronto. "In medicine we try to embrace our mistakes, to own them, to articulate them, to learn from them. We try to make them sound fancy. We don't call them mistakes. We call them critical errors. We made quite a few."
A luminary of our own
Alice Munro wasn't the only Canadian author caught in the literary spotlight this week. Eleanor Catton, the Ontario-born and New Zealand-based author, won the Man Booker Prize on Tuesday for The Luminaries, an epic mystery set during the gold rush. The 28-year-old is the youngest writer to ever win the $83,000 award, and bested such marquee names as Cólm Toibín and Jhumpa Lahiri. "This is all the more incredible to me, because The Luminaries is and was, from the very beginning, a publisher's nightmare," Catton said. "The shape and form of the book made certain kinds of editorial suggestions not only mathematically impossible but even more egregious, astrologically impossible."
One great canvas
Some art collectors prize their Picassos and Pollocks. But Frans Wynans is on the hunt for an Andy Warhol painting of Wayne Gretzky. Warhol, the world-famous pop artist, was commissioned by Wynans to immortalize the hockey great on six canvases in 1983; the Vancouver-based collector kept one for himself, but had to sell it during the recent recession. Now one of the paintings is up for auction by Sotheby's. Wynans told the CBC he was determined to get it back—even though the piece is expected to fetch $200,000. Every great art collection needs at least one hockey player in it, apparently.
Band on the run
"This beats going to class," Paul McCartney suggested to an auditorium full of arts students in Queens, N.Y., last week. The surprise concert and Q&A session at the Frank Sinatra School of the Arts (founded by Tony Bennett in 2001) was part of McCartney's promotion of a new album (titled, simply, New). The next day, the 71-year-old former Beatle turned up in Times Square to play a 15-minute lunchtime show on a stage constructed atop a tractor trailer, the only notice being a tweet sent out by McCartney an hour before the show. "We're basically busking," he quipped. "I'll be putting a little hat out there later."
A different sort of penalty box
Amid a locker-room discussion last week about San Jose Sharks phenom Tomas Hertl and whether he had been inappropriately showboating when he went between his legs to score a fourth goal near the end of a blowout win over the New York Rangers, San Jose forward Joe Thornton interjected with a rather crude remark about what he would do if he ever scored four goals. The Vancouver Province published the remarks and so ensued a debate about what is and what isn't on the record. The Province says the comments were clearly on the record and Thornton said it was "OK" when asked about the publication, but the Sharks' director of media relations condemned the newspaper. "I don't think it would be a surprise to anyone in the industry that 'locker room talk' exists," Scott Emmert said. "Professional reporters understand that concept and respect it."
The accidental survivalist
Hollywood is probably already bidding for the story of 72-year-old Gene Penaflor, a San Francisco retiree who survived for three weeks in the wilderness without food or shelter. Penaflor was on a deer-hunting trip when he got hit on the head and became lost in the fog. Unable to find his way home, he survived by eating whatever he could trap (but no deer).
Head over heels in Boston
Baseball has a new folk hero to add to its storied history of playoff drama. The sight of veteran police office Steve Horgan cheering as Detroit Tigers outfielder Torii Hunter fell over the outfield wall in an attempt to prevent a grand slam by Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz, has made a minor celebrity of the officer. The slam helped Boston win the game 6-5.
