Finding someone's email address is something we all need on a weekly basis. Whether it's for link building in SEO, planning events, promoting your latest blog post, finding prospects to sell your product/service to or reaching out to a VIP.
There are many ways to find someone's email address, but in an attempt to save everybody's time, I ordered them by what I consider the best way to find someone's email address (highest probability/shortest time to find an email). Here it goes, let's make it easy to find an email address for free!
Do you have other techniques to find someone's email address? Let me know in the comments!
Pretty easy to find emails from LinkedIn profiles, right?
Alternatively, you can connect to the person you want to target on LinkedIn and you will often times get the email address from their LinkedIn's profile (on the top-right of their profile).
You can also visit your FindThatLead account and directly search by domain, profession, location or a combination of all of this.
Also, as you must know, LinkedIn allows you to download your connections list as a CSV in which the person's email address is included. You can export your LinkedIn connections here. To find email addresses from your LinkedIn connections.
That implies that you're connected with that person on LinkedIn. If you're not, do that first to use this method!
Let's start with the most effective and quickest method to find email addresses by name: Google advanced search with operators.
In order to use those, just copy and paste them into Google and replace "company.com" by the person's company domain and "First name", "Last name" or "Full name" by their real one.
Influential people often get tweeted. And if you're lucky, sometimes they'll have been asked their email address as a conclusion to a tweet conversation and gave it away. Let's quickly check it out!
You could also use Twitter as a last resort and tweet them to ask for their email.
Still, haven't found that person's email address? Time for some stalking!
If that's the case, that's good news for you! That person most certainly was given an email address when she purchased her domain name.
In that case, visit the company's website and search for a "team" or "contact" page. Most of the time, you'll be able to find that person's email in there (if you hadn't already with a google search!).
Then he'll most-likely have an "author bio" at the top or the bottom of his articles with his picture, name, personal website and sometimes (drum roll) email address!
As a last resort (this one is longer), you can use two tools that work together to find anyone's email address: a google drive spreadsheet that will give you multiple possible variations of someone's email address and a chrome extension called Rapportive.
First, get my possible emails generator. To be able to use it, create your own copy in your Google Drive (click on file, then on "Create a copy").
Enter the first & last names of the person you're trying to reach as well as the domain name of the company. It will then give you around 50 possible email addresses to guess from.
Open Gmail with Rapportive (Chrome extension) to figure out which address is the real one: you just need to copy-paste the resulting email addresses in the "to:" field and hover on them one by one until Rapportive lights up and shows you social profiles linked to this email address (and by doing so, it confirms the email address)!
Finding someone's email address can seem like a daunting task, but it's not that hard when you have the right tools and process to go about it.
Here are the ways to find anyone's email address that works best according to my personal experience.
Enter your Name and E-mail address below to receive your free copy of this spreadsheet.

The low down on Belgium
By Kit Chapman2018-11-13T14:30:00+00:00
Should you be in Bruges, or is it just waffle?
Tucked between the Netherlands and France on the north coast of Europe, Belgium is home to more than 11.4 million people. A bilingual country, it is divided into two regions with radically different styles and heritage: the French-speaking Wallonia in the south, and the Dutch-speaking Flanders in the north. The capital, Brussels, is considered a separate region but largely speaks French, while around 1% of the population, in the east of the country, speak German.
Brussels' location at the crossroads between the Netherlands, Germany and France often made it the centre of European wars for the past 1000 years, but today it means easy access to the European Union's major players. Although it is home to only 2% of Europe's citizens, its chemical, plastics and life sciences sectors account for 5% of value according to the European Chemical Industry Council. This weighs in at around €65 billion (£57 billion), directly employing 90,000 workers across more than 700 companies in the chemical sciences and accounting for almost a third of total manufacturing value in the country. It's worth noting, though, that few of these are Belgian-owned companies: around 75% of employment in the Belgian chemical industry is through a foreign parent company.
Rent in Ghent will see every cent is spent (unless you live in a tent)
Belgians also enjoy a high quality of living, and the language barrier within their own country is often dissolved through English, which is widely spoken, including at the country's largest university, the Catholic University of Leuven (KU Leuven).
What's the downside?
Taxes. Income tax ranges from 25–50% – and the highest rates kick in for anyone earning more than €38,830. Belgium's VAT is 21%, and local municipalities (of which there are 19 in Brussels alone) have their own taxation powers, which can include supplementary taxes on income.
How much will I earn?
Before tax, quite a bit. Although pay depends on experience and sector, salaries above €50,000 for experienced workers or academics are there to be found, even if half of it goes straight to the government. It's also common for Belgian employers to also pay a '13th month' bonus to employees each year.
The cost of living, however, varies considerably depending on where you live. The mostly rent for a modest flat is around €1000, while prices for groceries and essentials are comparable to the rest of Europe.
Belgium is a very liberal country. Euthanasia was legalised in 2002, and gay marriage in 2003. It also prides itself on its hospitality: world-class beer is available from bars that stay late deep into the night (there is no legal closing time), terrific food can be bought from street vendors (often coated to excess in mayonnaise) and there are host of small shops or chains offering Belgian chocolates.
The Lion's Mound at Waterloo marks the spot the Prince of Orange was shot during the battle
Belgium's Christmas celebrations are also a little different, particularly in the Dutch-speaking north. Rather than being helped by elves, Saint Nicolas is assisted by 'Black Peter', a Moor from Spain, who brings presents and gifts on 5 December. This has traditionally involved members of the public dressing up in blackface during parades – an act that is likely to shock and offend visitors, and which is increasingly viewed as controversial in Belgium.
Where should I go?
The towns of Bruges and Ghent are largely considered picture-perfect, filled as they are with medieval houses and canals. The best time to visit is during the Festival of Ghent in July – a carnival of music and theatre that attracts up to two million visitors a year.
If you're in Brussels, avoid the tourist hotspot of Menneke Pis (the small statue of a boy urinating isn't that impressive) and instead head out to see the Atomium. Built for the 1958 World's Fair, today the 102-metre high model of an iron crystal magnified 165 billion times is a museum.
If you're a fan of history, then a visit to the site of the Battle of Waterloo is probably on your wish list. However, be prepared for a little disappointment: while most of the battlefield is well preserved, in 1820 the King of the Netherlands ripped up the landscape to build a 43-metre high mound with a lion statue at the top to commemorate where his son was shot during the conflict.

Robbins Library Digital Projects > TEAMS Middle English Texts > Robin Hood and Other Outlaw Tales > From John Major's Historia Majoris Brittaniae (1521)
From John Major's Historia Majoris Brittaniae (1521)
by: Stephen Knight (Editor) , Thomas H. Ohlgren (Editor) , John Major (Author)
from: Robin Hood and Other Outlaw Tales 1997
[John Major was a Scottish historian and intellectual who, unlike Wyntoun and Bower, worked outside the country; he spent many years at the University of Paris, where he became well enough known to be mentioned ironically in Rabelais's Gargantua as the author of a treatise on black puddings. He returned to teach at the University of Glasgow in about 1500 but he had apparently already completed his Historia Majoris Britanniae (History of Greater Britain, though, oddly, it also translates as Major's History of Britain). Written in a newly humanist Latin, rather than Bower's old fashioned style, this also has much less Scottish sympathies than his predecessors: he cuts the discussion of Edward I's cruelty and sees him as less of a real threat to Scotland than did his predecessors -- and also his followers, Hector Boece and David Buchanan.
In addition to reducing the pro-Scottish element of other Scottish historians, Major also relocates the Robin Hood story into the late twelfth century, the much more distant time of King John. This is the first time that the outlaw is linked with the period of King Richard. In later hands this was to re-shape Robin's resistance to authority itself as an act of a noble conservatism, since bad King John could be attacked and true kingship defended at the same time. This does not appear to be Major's motif: his redating of the story in the period of John is probably due to the influence of the story of Fouke le Fitz Waryn, a noble outlaw and enemy of bad authority from that period.
Major's "exceptionally influential eulogy" of Robin (Dobson and Taylor, 1976, p. 5) presents him as a bold but moral hero, only killing in self-defense, a protector of women and the poor. This suggests that Major was familiar with the Gest and its presentation of the outlaw, and that accords with the idea that he was not only a humane robber but also a "chief." The Latin word was dux, which just means "leader," but can also, as "duke," have aristocratic implications. In this way, while not decisively creating the distressed gentleman who is to be the new "renaissance Robin Hood," Major established the basis for that figure by removing the Scottish -- or anti-English -- point of view, moralizing his deeds, elevating his character to the edge of gentrification and, perhaps the most important thing, removing any trace of Bower's hero of Catholicism.]
About this time it was, as I conceive, that there flourished those most famous robbers Robert Hood, an Englishman, and Little John, who lay in wait in the woods, but spoiled of their goods those only that were wealthy. They took the life of no man, unless he either attacked them or offered resistance in defence of his property. Robert supported by his plundering one hundred bowmen, ready fighters every one, with whom four hundred of the strongest would not dare to engage in combat. The feats of this Robert are told in song all over Britain. He would allow no woman to suffer injustice, nor would he spoil the poor, but rather enriched them from the plunder taken from the abbots. The robberies of this man I condemn, but of all robbers he was the humanest and the chief. (1892, pp. 156-67)

How and why brands and agencies must embrace diversity
There have been many calls for both the creative industry and the advertising industry to embrace diversity and harness the variety of multicultural talents the UK has to offer. Agencies and brands need to ensure they harness the potential multicultural talents can bring in all processes across the business.
In order to raise awareness of the diversity debate in the advertising industry, there have been multiple reports and surveys published shining light on this issue. For example, in 2018 a survey found that 34% of black people in the UK felt that people of their ethnicity were inaccurately depicted in advertising, with 29% feeling that they were negatively portrayed. Similarly, 30% of Asian people thought that they were also represented inaccurately in advertising.
With a growing number of people now becoming more aware of the issue, consumers have begun to express the importance diversity plays in their purchasing decision. Nearly two-thirds of consumers (64%) are somewhat likely to purchase a product immediately after seeing it advertised if the brand embodies diversity and inclusion.
Therefore, it is no secret that diversity is playing, and will continue to play, a major role across the country, so what lessons can brands and agencies learn from diversity?
Consumers are becoming more aware
The growing discussion about race, not just in the UK, but across the world, has reaffirmed the need for greater diversity in advertising. With racial injustice appearing in headlines across the world, public opinion has been galvanised, leading younger, urban audiences of all races to take to the streets calling for equality.
Brands that were associated with slavery in the past or were exploiting workers and child labourers in third world countries are now being held accountable. The golden generation (Millennials and Gen Z), feel particularly strongly about this issue, with many standing against these brands and boycotting them. Research conducted by Edelman in June revealed that 60% of US consumers will buy or boycott a product based on how the brand respond to racial inequality.
Ticking the right boxes
It's important to note that the issue of discrimination goes beyond a brands reaction to a news story. It's vital that companies and brands also examine direct or indirect racism in all of their business processes, including HR; external suppliers; manufacturing; sales; and not be reliant on token diversity initiatives.
There also remains a major problem in the boardroom. A survey conducted of FTSE 100 companies revealed that only 5% of organisations have ethnic CEOs. If UK brands and agencies wants to capitalise on a growing diverse customer base – something they have been avoiding for three decades – then they need to move away from empty words to actionable goals with a clear timeline.
So, what can brands do to show the public they care about diversity and are not just doing it for show?
Ad agencies and companies must publish annual staff figures to specify the ethnicity of their staff at all levels from admin to board directors. One way to achieve this is to run a league table of companies which employ multicultural talents at every level across the organisation.
The same percentage of ethnic minorities in the UK should also make up the same percentage of multicultural talents at board director level.
The government must act soon to address the disproportionate pay gaps between staff of multicultural heritage and mainstream directors.
The government needs to legislate and make it compulsory for large companies to spend 10% of their revenue with suppliers that showcase a good level of diversity within its management
As our society becomes increasingly diverse, ad agencies and brands cannot continue to operate without understanding their multicultural audiences, which are growing in terms of both influence and affluence. It's vital they show consumers they are tackling the issue of diversity by going beyond bold statements with no action and instead tackling the issues that make a difference behind the scenes.

L'architecture de la Guyane, regroupe à l'origine, l'architecture amérindienne, l'architecture créole et l'architecture bushinenge. Ces architectures se melllent aux styles architecturaux modernes.

Architecture pré-coloniale

L'habitat amérindien est traditionnellement centrée sur la construction de carbets. Ils changent de formes selon les régions et différentes ethnies présentes sur le territoire guyanais. Ils peuvent être construit sur le sol ou sur pilotis. Les carbets traditionnels des Wayanas sont très apprécié grâce au Maluana, qui est un ciel de case, utilisé pour décorer le dôme du Tukusipan (carbet communautaire).

Architecture coloniale

Architecture créole

L'architecture créole, issue de la période colonial est née dès le . Elle est constituée de maisons créoles, appelée localement case (kaz en créole guyanais), construite avec de l'argile fait sur place, du sable, des bois locaux, des métaux et du ciment.

Architecture bushinenge

Entre le  et le , les populations noires marrons vont développer une architecture notable. Initialement inspiré de l'architecture amérindienne, elle va de plus en plus s'en éloigner pour créer un style unique, marqué par l'origine africaine de ces peuples. L'habitat traditionnel des Bonis est reconnu pour l'utilisation de l'art Tembé, typique de ces peuples.

The years directly before the civil war were marked by escalating tensions and sharply declining relations between the North and South as differences between the two territories were made clear.

His raid on Harper's Ferry on the federal armory in 1859 ended up a failure. He was striving to steal guns and ammunition and deliver it to the slaves in the South, so that...

Kabaddi, Kabaddi, Kabaddi!
Among the many stories in our community, we bring to you one about a passionate individual who loves the sport of Kabaddi.
Mr Dalbir Singh (Dhandal) was part of a team of players who played Kabaddi for the Singapore Khalsa Association (SKA) in the 1980s-1990s. His team was even sent to Mumbai, India for a Kabaddi tournament in 1984 to compete against teams from 5 countries!
He started playing Kabaddi from the age of 10 with his brothers (2 of whom were also in the SKA team) and honed his skills with a band of muscular young men while touring the Kabaddi circuit in Singapore and Malaysia.
While the scene may have faded in Singapore, he still helps out in exhibition matches during major festivals and events as a Kabaddi referee, and hopes that the energy and enthusiasm for Kabaddi could one day be reignited in our community!
Check out our video interview with him to hear his story and his love for the game!

Cognitive disorders are an important group of disorders affecting the brain for which currently used drugs are often of low efficacy and mainly of symptomatic value. There is increasing evidence suggesting that epigenetic changes in gene expression underlie cognitive disorders. Advances in epigenetics have given rise to a new class of drugs, epigenetic drugs, that reverse epigenetic changes in gene expression. At present most work on epigenetic drugs focuses on two types of drugs: histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, and drugs targeting DNA methylation. This article describes the role of epigenetic drugs in treating cognitive disorders, focusing on Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, and Parkinson's disease. Epigenetic drugs may improve the clinical management of patients with cognitive disorders.

Space use by foraging Galápagos penguins during chick rearing
Steinfurth A., Vargas FH., Wilson RP., Spindler M., MacDonald DW.
Between May 2004 and May 2005, we studied the horizontal-and vertical movements of foraging Galápagos penguins Spheniscus mendiculus during their breeding season to examine space use at sea and to compare theyolurne of water exploited by this penguin to those of other penguin species. A total of 23 adult penguins (11 males and 12 females) brooding chicks were fitted with GPS-depth recorders at the 3 main nesting sites on south-western Isabela Island. Birds moved between 1.1 and 23.5 km (mean = 5.2 ± 4.9 km) from the nest, concentrating foraging in a strip of sea within 1.0 km of the shore. Foraging trips lasted a mean of 8.4 ± 2.0 h. Although the deepest dive was 52:1 m, birds spent, on average, 90% of their time underwater at depths less than 6 m. Both foraging ranges and dive depths were below those predicted from allometric regressions derived from other penguin species. Applying the maximum values for movement to calculate space use, the Galápagos penguin exploits a maximum volume of water of < 1.4 km3, which is almost 90 times less than that predicted for its mass, and thus utilises only a small portion of the total potentially available upwelling area within the Galápagos Archipelago. © Inter-Research 2008.

"I went to this nutritionist, and he's like, 'Write down what you eat everyday, and email me,' ... I wrote down like yogurt, salad, chicken-whatever," Hill continued. "He didn't email back. He usually says, 'OK' or something."
That's when Hill realized something was wrong.
"It must have been 'D-R,' cause it was doctor, and I sent it to Drake," he recalled.

Q: difficulties in wordladder programe I'm struggling to complete my wordladder programme. Need some guidance.
The following is my source code thus far :
    newQueue = MyQueue()
    newStack = MyStack()
#finding words with one letter difference
newStack.push(firstWord)
while True:
    for words in dictionary:
        diffcounter =0;
        if (len(firstWord) == len(words)):
            for i in range(0, len(firstWord)):
                if (firstWord[i] != words[i]):
                    if (diffcounter > 1):
                        break
                    else:
                        diffcounter = diffcounter + 1

            if (diffcounter == 1):
                newStack.push(words)
                newQueue.enqueue(newStack)

#compare with lastWord
    deStack = newQueue.dequeue()
    print deStack.toString()
    if (deStack.peek() != lastWord):

        #problem
        firstWord = deStack.peek()
    else:
       break

So basically, it will go into a infinite loop and once the lastWord is reach, it will break. But now I'm encountering issues with the checking with lastWord. So far i'm able to extract words with one letter difference but cant loop the function to keep looping until the lastWord is reach.

Hamas has developed a sophisticated network of tunnels in the Gaza Strip in the event of an Israeli ground invasion.
A Palestinian boy places a Hamas flag atop the rubble of a house destroyed in an Israeli air strike in the northern Gaza Strip, July 9, 2014.
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — An open military confrontation between Hamas and Israel finally erupted in Gaza July 8, following a gradual escalation that began after the kidnapping and killing of three students near Hebron in June and a Palestinian teenager in East Jerusalem in July. Israel's killing of six members of the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' military wing, in Rafah on July 6 pushed the door open to full-blown warfare, as the Qassam Brigades responded by firing dozens of mortar rounds and Qassam and Grad rockets at southern Israel the evening of July 7 in a manner not seen since the November 2012 war. The Israeli army launched Operation Protective Edge at dawn on July 8.
Al-Monitor conducted a field survey of the sites targeted by the Israeli air force in Gaza and learned from Ashraf al-Qadwa, spokesman for the Ministry of Health, that the strikes to date had led to the deaths of 68 Palestinians, among them 19 children and 10 women, and the wounding of 450 others. These casualties resulted from the targeting of homes in the cities of Rafah, Khan Yunis and Beit Lahiya.
In this regard, the Hamas-affiliated al-Majd Security website affirmed that the Qassam Brigades had undertaken a series of measures to prepare for a long confrontation with Israel, the most important of which were keeping rocket-launch locations secret and building underground storage sites for the launchers. They also adopted the tactic of selecting specific times for launches, such as when aircraft are not flying overhead, as well as deploying decoy launchers to feed the Israeli air force false targeting information.
Al-Monitor reported in February that Hamas had obtained a small number of anti-aircraft missiles, and it has observed in recent days that the majority of Israeli planes in Gazan airspace have released balloons to draw heat-seeking anti-aircraft fire away from the aircraft. The Qassam Brigades claim to have targeted and hit an Israeli Apache helicopter with a SAM-7 missile over Khan Yunis on the afternoon of July 7, but Israeli media claimed the aircraft had avoided damage.
Hamas' possible use of these tunnels in countering a ground offensive was revealed when Israel bombed a tunnel under the destroyed international airport, leading to the deaths of the six Qassam fighters on July 6. In addition, Hamas' preparation for the ongoing confrontation may be evidenced by the dispatch of a Qassam Brigades "frogmen" commando unit to Ashkelon, north of Gaza, for an operation during which the commandos were apparently killed. The Qassam Brigades also claim to have detonated an explosion in a tunnel on the evening of July 8 in the Kerem Shalom area, south of Gaza.
Hamas claims its preparations for the ongoing military confrontation with Israel will result in successive surprises on the battlefield. This is perhaps an indication that both sides will attempt to broaden the scope of battle beyond previous confrontations, employing new measures and intensities.

From One to Another
Art lovers and museum enthusiasts have a unique opportunity to experience some of the greatest collections of Musée du Louvre in Abu Dhabi, while exploring the history of the French museum.
Louvre Abu Dhabi's first special exhibition, From One Louvre to Another: Opening a Museum for Everyone, tells the fascinating stories of the origins of the great Musée du Louvre in France.
The exhibition, which runs until April 7, traces the history of Musée du Louvre in the 18th century through 150 paintings, sculptures, decorative arts and other works of art from the world-renowned collections of the Musée du Louvre and the Château de Versailles.
Divided into three sections, the exhibition explores the royal collections at Versailles under Louis XIV, the Louvre as a palace for artists, and the creation of the Musée du Louvre.
From One Louvre to Another begins with Versailles in the late 17th century, showing how the royal collections were displayed in the gardens, the state apartments, and the king's private apartment. Notable works displayed in this section includes Jean Garnier's stunning oil painting Portrait of Louis XIV with the allegory of good government (1670-72), and the 1st-2nd century AD Roman statue, Diana of Versailles, formerly found in the grounds of the great palace.
It then moves on to the Louvre palace, a great hive of artistic activity in the 18th century, home to artists' studios, the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture, and the Salon, a contemporary art exhibition that was held in the Salon Carré every other year. A section devoted to the workshops housed within the Louvre palace features such items of master craftsmanship as the Clock of the Creation of the World, by astronomer and mechanist Claude-Siméon Passemant and silversmith François-Thomas Germain. Nicolas Bernard Lépicié's painting The Young Draughtsman (1772) is an example of output from members of the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture, also housed in the palace.
An epilogue to the exhibition evokes the transformation of the Louvre into a universal museum in the 19th century, with the discovery of periods of history and peoples that were not familiar in Europe at the time. A highlight is the Barberini vase, a copper work masterpiece executed for an Ayyubid prince who reigned in Aleppo between 1239 and 1260. This section aims to inspire visitors to reflect upon what a universal museum is, and the parallels between Musée du Louvre and Louvre Abu Dhabi.
During the 18th century, the French Crown owned the largest art collection in Europe. It became clear that the Louvre, dedicated to the arts, was the ideal location for a museum that would give an opportunity for everyone to study and view the royal collections. The exhibition concludes with the acquisitions and commissions made under Louis XVI for this future museum, which would finally open during the French Revolution, in 1793. There are also a Japanese porcelain vase and cover decorated in the Kakiemon style (c 1770) and a sculpture of Montesquieu by Clodion, part of the Great Men of France series.
The exhibition's scenography ingeniously recreates the outdoor lighting of the gardens at Versailles and the lavishness of the château's apartments, bringing to life the hustle and bustle of the artists' studios within the Louvre, the crowded fashion in which paintings were hung for the Salons, and the eclecticism of the Musée du Louvre's collections in the nineteenth century. Short immersive films enhance the experience.

I've rescued this story from the rubble of my four months with Forbes.com. It appeared this past March 2012.
Jerry Lewis turned 86 yesterday and got quite a nice birthday party from the Friars Club. Richard Belzer interviewed him last night at the 92nd St. Y, Lewis did a lengthy and hilarious Q&A with the audience, and then Paul Shaffer played "Happy Birthday" to him on the piano with an audience singalong. Veteran comic and actor Jerry Stiller came and sat third row center and even asked a question: "Did you and Dean rehearse your act?"– and he seriously wanted an answer. Jerry joked a lot of his answers, and got lots of applause from an audience that included Robert Klein, David Steinberg, and writer-actor Robert Smigel ("Triumph the Comic Insult Dog"). The audience was full of showbiz people including producer Bonnie Timmermann, Rita Cosby, and director-producer Antonio Campos.

Title: Vinyl polymerization in the presence of metal salts
Author: O'Neill, Thomas
Awarding Body: University of Glasgow
Current Institution: University of Glasgow
http://theses.gla.ac.uk/72412/
A study has been made of the behaviour of cupric chloride in dimethyl formamide solution in systems containing a vinyl monomer polymerizable by a free radical mechanism. Although ultra-violet irradiation of such systems has been found to cause photolysis of the cupric species to cuprous with, in some cases, the formation of insoluble polymer, no measurable rates of polymerization have been detected. This observation has been explained as due to a rapid termination reaction between the cupric species and the polymerization chain-carrying radical. That the reaction between cupric chloride in dimethyl formamide solution and polymer radicals does proceed at a rate comparable to that observed in radical-radical interactions has been verified in the case of the monomers, styrene and methacrylonitrile.


Stained glass of Christ and the Apostles from Holy Trinity Church, Waterbury, Conn.
255 people in our community are currently praying with you.
God of glory, by the raising of your Son you have broken the chains of death and hell: fill my spirit, and the spirit of all the people of your universal church, with faith and hope; for a new day has dawned, and the way to life stands open in our Saviour Jesus Christ.
Bless the Lord all you works of the Lord: sing his praise and exalt him for ever.
Bless the Lord you heavens: sing his praise and exalt him for ever.
Bless the Lord you angels of the Lord: sing his praise and exalt him for ever.
Bless the Lord all people on earth: sing his praise and exalt him for ever.
O people of God bless the Lord: sing his praise and exalt him for ever.
Bless the Lord you priests of the Lord: sing his praise and exalt him for ever.
Bless the Lord you servants of the Lord: sing his praise and exalt him for ever.
Bless the Lord all you of upright spirit: bless the Lord you that are holy and humble in heart.
All Bless the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit: sing his praise and exalt him for ever.
Most merciful God, whose eyes are too pure to behold iniquity, and who has promised forgiveness to all those who confess and forsake their sins; I come before you in a humble sense of my own unworthiness, confessing my many transgressions of your righteous laws. [* Here make a short pause, to remember and confess the sins and failings of the past week.] But, O gracious Father, who desires not the death of a sinner, look upon me, I beseech you, in mercy, and forgive me for all my transgressions. Make me deeply sensible of the great evil of them; and work in me a hearty repentance; that I may obtain forgiveness at your hands, who is ever ready to receive humble and penitent sinners; for the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, my only Saviour and Redeemer.
Amazed and astonished, they asked, "Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? And how is it that we hear, each of us, in our own native language? Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabs — in our own languages we hear them speaking about God's deeds of power."
The Pentecost was, in effect, a "jump start" for the reign of the Holy Spirit. Christ had finished his mission on earth and had ascended to heaven. He promised that after he had left the world, he would leave "another Advocate" to dwell with those who believed in him and followed his commandments. The Pentecost marks the coming of the Holy Spirit, the name by which we call the Spirit of God that remained with us after Christ had ascended.
This event fulfills the passage we studied several weeks ago, when John the Baptist says: "I baptize you with water for repentance, but he who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire." (Matthew 3:11) The Pentecost finalizes, in effect, the baptism of the church. Christ has departed us for a while, and it is at this point that the new age, the age between his ascension and his second coming, begins.
The event itself is colorful and wonderful, a short time when everybody in the vicinity of the disciples could witness the miracle of the Holy Spirit. To them it appeared that the disciples were speaking in their native language — Egyptians heard Egyptian, Romans heard Latin, etc. It seems as if the Holy Spirit wasn't relying on language at all. He communicated directly to the minds and souls of those present.
The hearing of each person in his own language recalls the ancient promise, that the Messiah would make God's grace available to all nations. The old covenant was specifically a relationship between God and the Jews; but the new covenant of Christ could be shared by anyone who believed in him. If we have accepted Christ into our hearts and follow His commandments, the Holy Spirit will live within us and we can know God in a way different from how we "know" anything else.
Pentecost by El Greco ca. 1596.

In the Season 1 Episode 8 of Monty Python's Flying Circus, the Army Protection Racket sketch, two cliché Italian mafiosi are trying to blackmail the Colonel into giving them money:
[...] not a single armoured division will get done over for fifteen bob a week.
and then go down to
Twelve and six.
Eight and six...
five bob.
What does this mean and what purchasing power would this be today?
A sketch video and episode script are available.

One of my favorite, shows the "shifted situation played as if it was normal" way of the Monty Pythons, and the usual first-season's "End the sketch with something else than a punchline" signature endings – Olivier Dulac Dec 11 '15 at 1:28
Bob is another word for Shilling (s), which before decimalisation in 1971 was 1/20 of a Pound (£) and could be split into 12 pence (d).
The episode was filmed 25 November 1969.
From context it's clear that n and m stands for n Shilling and m Pence, so the 2014 values of the negotiated weekly sums are:
1969    |  2014
-----------+--------
£0 15s 0d | £11.02
£0 12s 6d |  £9.19
£0  8s 6d |  £6.25
Calculated with a simple purchasing power calculator.
This partially explain the Colonel's reaction:
No, no this is silly.
I think you may have misunderstood. When he says "this is silly", he's referring to the premise of the sketch. He's stepped out of character and is addressing the show writers (e.g. themselves) – user7812 Dec 10 '15 at 21:25
@richard: +1. to fully understand the "silly" remark, you also have to 1) watch several MP sketch 2) of course, here, see the whole situation as it is: the Monty Pythons often use the silliness of having a "common" situation placed in the wrong context (here, a common Movie tough couple of guys are trying to extort money from a not-so-frail victim, the army) Then every one of them plays it in full character, as if that reality made sense, like the Colonel at the first part of the sketch, unafraid and unimpressed, but still listening. Until he steps "out of it" and adress the authors(& viewers) – Olivier Dulac Dec 11 '15 at 1:22

The purpose of this note is to consider the age of the Detroit River Formation (middle Devonian) in northern Indiana by using new physical evidence obtained from a K-bentonite or metabentonite and paleontologic data provided by conodonts. The best known and well-documented, widespread sedimentary accumulation of volcanic ash in the middle Devonian rocks of the Appalachian Basin is the Tioga Bentonite Bed (Johnson, Milton, and Dennison, 1971: Dennison and Textoris, 1970). Oliver and others (1967, p. 1006-1007) indicated that the stratigraphic position of the Tioga in the Devonian System was between the Ulsterian and Erian Series, the Onesquethaw and Cazenovia Stages, and the Moorehouse and Seneca Members of the Onondaga Limestone in the New York outcrop. These workers showed the Dundee Limestone separated from the subjacent Columbus Limestone by the Tioga at Sandusky in northern Ohio, and Janssens (1970) stated that a 3-inch shale bed between the Columbus Limestone at Marble Cliff Quarry, Franklin County, Ohio, was identified as Tioga bentonite by D.A. Textoris and J.M. Dennison. Collinson and others (1967) showed the stratigraphic position of the Tioga in some wells in the Illinois Basin, and Becker (in preparation) traced the position of the Tioga in the Jeffersonville Limestone on geophysical logs of 60 wells in southwestern and west-central Indiana.

Let me first state that, Yes, I did read the, what I consider the best zombie book ever written, World War Z, by Max Brooks, several years ago. So before anyone asks if I had read the book the answer is a resounding yes! And even though I went into the theater understanding that the story I was about to see was not going to be like the book but loosely based on it, I still had very high hopes for its success. Boy was that an understatement. The movie was fantastic and I'll tell you why.
I remember watching some of the early trailers for World War Z and thinking, this is nothing like the book? And, what's the deal with these zombies, sprinting and leaping after their prey? Nothing like the mindless, stumbling corpses in the Walking Dead? So yes, I became extremely skeptical, but as time passed, and the World War Z premier slowly neared, I also found myself hoping for its success. At the conclusion of the film, when the credits finally rolled, I could only sit silently in my seat, marveling at the quality of such a monumental undertaking. They had done it! The question now was, how?
Brad Pitt was great, but isn't he always. Was this a surprise? No. You typically go into any film with Brad Pitt with the assumption that he will perform and perform he did as U.N. Investigator Gerry Lane. Breakout performance? Pretty close. What did it for me was that his role was believable? The closeness to his family, the investigative role he reluctantly found himself in and the feeling of sacrifice and duty you felt in the final throes of the film. Expected? Yes. Surprised? Still after having watch so many Pitt films….yes!
This wasn't The Walking Dead, where our story is centralized more or less within a region of what remains of the United States. This is world war, and hence needs to really make us feel like that the world is truly engaged in a life and death struggle for survival. And this is just what the film was able to pull off and surprisingly, with great success! As we watch our intrepid Gerry venture to South Korea, then on to Israel and beyond, we really start to get that understanding that the world is truly lost. This is not something relegated to the U.S. but across the globe from urban center to desolate countryside, the zombie outbreak is wide and it is complete.
The world is lost. Zombies are running over the living literally in waves of mouth chomping destruction and yet the story still manages to shrink this all engulfing tsunami of death down to Gerry and his family and Gerry and his Israeli companion as they muddle through tense situation after tense situation, each one growing in suspense and 'edge of your seat' madness. The ending segment of the film being the most stressful despite the shear craziness we had already just traversed through.
The film flows nicely, not so much that we're overwhelmed and yet still very engaging to keep us locked in. As much as the film surprised me around every turn, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the film ultimately came up for nomination in the award season. You doubt? Mark my words. You heard it here first!

Il monismo anomalo è una teoria proposta dal filosofo statunitense Donald Davidson nel tentativo di risolvere il problema del dualismo  mente-corpo. Essa è esposta per la prima volta nel saggio Eventi mentali del 1970.

Col monismo anomalo Davidson vuole affermare un rigoroso fisicalismo sul piano ontologico, senza con ciò ridurre completamente la psicologia e la mente alla fisica e alla materia (e per questo la sua posizione può definirsi "fisicalismo non riduttivo").

Quella di Davidson è infatti una Teoria dell'identità delle occorrenze (token-identity theory), distinta dalle precedenti teorie materialiste dell'identità dei tipi (type-identity theory). Ogni occorrenza di un evento mentale, per questa teoria, è identica a un evento fisico, ma ciò non implica che esista un procedimento per descrivere qualsiasi tipo, o classe, di entità mentali in termini fisici.

Il monismo anomalo deriva da queste tre premesse o principî:

 1)  Principio d'interazione causale: «almeno alcuni eventi mentali interagiscono causalmente con eventi fisici».
 2)  Principio del carattere nomologico della causalità: «dove c'è causalità deve esserci una legge: gli eventi che stanno in relazione di causa e effetto ricadono sotto leggi strettamente deterministiche».
 3)  Principio dell'anomalia del mentale: «non vi sono leggi strettamente deterministiche sulla base delle quali poter prevedere e spiegare gli eventi mentali»

Dato che, in effetti, l'identità delle occorrenze è una conseguenza logica delle premesse ora esposte, difendere o attaccare il monismo anomalo significa difenderne o attaccarne le premesse. Il primo principio potrebbe non essere accettato dai teorici dell'azione wittgensteiniani; il secondo potrebbe non ricevere accoglienza universale in tutte le filosofie della scienza, ma è forse il meno problematico; quello di gran lunga più controverso è invece il terzo, tanto da far sembrare l'intera argomentazione una petizione di principio. Davidson, comunque, argomenta anche in modo indipendente a favore del principio dell'anomalia del mentale, sulla base di considerazioni olistiche.

Nel tentativo di chiarire ulteriormente la relazione tra l'ambito del fisico e quello del mentale, Davidson spiega che i fenomeni mentali sono "sopravvenienti" rispetto ai fenomeni fisici: il concetto di sopravvenienza (supervenience) sta a indicare che, dato un oggetto O, sia F l'insieme di tutti i predicati fisici ad esso applicabili, e sia M l'insieme dei predicati mentali che lo descrivono, allora, non è possibile togliere o aggiungere nessun predicato a M, senza togliere o aggiungere qualcosa a F (mentre potrebbe accadere l'inverso). In altre parole, la sopravvenienza implica che ogni modificazione intervenuta a livello mentale sarà necessariamente accompagnata da modificazioni a livello del sistema nervoso, ma non viceversa.

Secondo alcuni critici (come Ted Honderich o Jaegwon Kim) la proposta di Davidson è insoddisfacente perché, pur ammettendo la realtà dei fenomeni mentali, li renderebbe "causalmente inerti". Il principio dell'anomalia del mentale implicherebbe, infatti, che gli unici predicati causalmente rilevanti nella spiegazione di un qualsiasi fenomeno sono quelli fisici, il che presta il fianco all'accusa di "epifenomenalismo". Davidson però obietta che non nega l'esistenza di leggi psicofisiche tout-court : esse svolgono anzi un ruolo fondamentale. Semplicemente, tali leggi non sono deterministiche e non hanno valore universale, in virtù del carattere irriducibilmente "disposizionale" dei termini mentali (una precisazione che avvicina Davidson al comportamentismo filosofico di Gilbert Ryle).

Riassumendo, il monismo anomalo sostiene che fenomeni mentali e materiali non sono ontologicamente separati (come lo erano nel dualismo cartesiano), ma appartengono alla stessa realtà (da qui il termine "monismo"). Nonostante ciò i fenomeni mentali non sono completamente riducibili alle leggi dei fenomeni materiali. Per questo la posizione si chiama "anomala", cioè "senza leggi" (per falsa etimologia, da "alfa privativo = senza + nomos = legge"; oppure, come preferito in ambito anglosassone: an + "homalos" = non regolare). Quindi si evitano le assurdità del dualismo e dell'interazionismo senza cadere nel riduzionismo o nell'eliminativismo.
