"Creation of a safe and resourceful learning environment for children."
"Jàng Jàngaan, bo mokkalee, berr sa daara."
"Teach them well, and they will build the schools of tomorrow."
Initiation and support of academic exchanges, communication, friendship, understanding, and sustained learning between students, teachers, and faculty, from elementary through university levels, through seminars, workshops, conferences, scholarships, exchanges, email and other media, along with activities such as book/school supplies/ clothing drives, literacy campaigns, teacher training, volunteer and service projects, and others.
Jamarek identified the needs and challenges that students are facing in Senegal in order to help alleviate them.
Our commitment to young learners relies on learning tools and equipment that are crucial in providing access and stability in the classrooms, but also promoting pro-social frie
ndships, strong interpersonal skills, creativity, and reasserts a sense of hope in the future in Senegal.
Jamarek supports schools by providing supplies in the form of:
- Teaching materials, notebooks, paper, pens, pencils, backpacks, and other basic items which are often non-existent or in short supply.
- School uniforms and shoes. School supplies' drives would go a long way in relieving economically challenged families to equip their children with instruments of learning.
- The core of our sustainable community model is an investment in disadvantaged youth, schools, and children with instruments of learning.
The 21st Century greatest challenge in education is technological. Today, a new paradigm shift dictates which nations or people are ahead the education of its citizenry. That shift is attributed to the colossal digital divide between developing and developed countries. The West African region, already handicapped by its high level of illiteracy, sees that already large gap widening more and more.
Jamarek is attempting to close that gap and this is how:
- Our technology donations (desktop computers, laptops, tablet computers, TV, DVD, etc.) will serve as a vehicle to open pocket computer learning centers where free training courses will be administered by volunteers and partners.
- School supplies drives would go a long way in relieving economically challenged families to equip their children with hi-tech instruments of learning.
We welcome donations of the aforementioned school, but other types of educational tools and instruments that could contribute to the education of the children.

UMBC at Stony Brook Game Notes
UMBC (13-6. 4-2 America East) continues its stretch of four road America East games out of a span of five overall on Wednesday, Jan. 25 when the Retrievers travel to Long Island to take on Stony Brook (10-9, 5-1 AE). The Seawolves hold a one-game lead over both UMBC and UNH for second place in America East. Tip-off time at IFCU Arena is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.
Live stats will be available via www.umbcretrievers.com and fans can also follow via the men's basketball program's Twitter feed (UMBC_MBB). Access of live stats is also available via UMBC Front Row, UMBC Athletics' mobile website.
RETRIEVERS' UPDATE: UMBC exploded for 57 second half points and erased a 14-point first half deficit to defeat host UMass Lowell, 102-86, on Sunday.
Senior forward Will Darley (28) and junior guard Jairus Lyles (22) combined for 50 points, while junior guard Rodney Elliott gave the Retrievers a spark off the bench by contributing a season-high 18 points. The Retrievers committed a season-low six turnovers vs. UML and hit 53 percent from the floor to outlast the River Hawks.
The win snapped a two-game slide by UMBC and was the Retrievers' first in seven meetings vs. UML.
Lyles leads the squad and is second in America East in scoring, averaging 20.3 points per game. The 6'2" guard is also UMBC's top rebounder at 6.9 caroms per game, good for fourth in the conference. Named America East Player of the Week for the second time this season on Dec. 26, he is currently ranked 32nd in the country in points per game.
Darley, who scored a season-high 29 points in the win at Hartford on Jan. 11, is at 14.7 points per game and leads the team with 18.8 points per outing in six America East contests. Sophomore forward Joe Sherburne, who has knocked down 41-of-68 treys over the past 14 games, is now ranked second in the nation in 3-pt. field goal percentage at 52.7 percent. He is now averaging 13.1 points per contest.
Through games of Jan. 22, UMBC was 41st in the nation in scoring average at 81.8 points per game. They are also ranked 17th nationally with 9.8 three-point field goals made per game and 14th in 3-pt. field goal percentage (40.3).
DOG BYTES: The 102 points scored in regulation by UMBC at UML is the most since scoring 102 versus Radford in February of 1993. The Retrievers scored 100 for the second time this season - they have only scored 100 plus on multiple occasions in a campaign one other time when they posted 4 efforts in 1991-92.
UMBC leads America East in scoring (81.8), 3-pt. field goal percentage (40.3), and treys per game (9.8). They are ranked second in assists (15.1), steals (6.7), assist-to-turnover ratio (1.2) and defensive rebounds (26.6) and third in scoring margin (+6.3), and field goal percentage (47.7).
The 13-6 mark is one win shy of the 1998-99 squad's 14-5 record through 19 games. The 1981-82 NCAA Division II team was also one game better at 14-5. The 13 victories are UMBC's most since posting 15 in the 2008-09 campaign and the five road wins are the most since earning five that same season.
The nine non-conference victories are the most the Retrievers have garnered in 26 years of NCAA Division I conference competition. The six road wins are the most since the 2007-08 season, when they posted nine.
SEAWOLVES' UPDATE: Stony Brook (10-9, 5-1 America East) had opened America East play by reeling off five straight wins, but dropped a heartbreaking 71-67 decision at Binghamton on Sunday. SBU is .500 both at home (4-4) and on the road (5-5) this year.
Stony Brook leads America East in turnover margin (+3.6) and offensive rebounds (11.8 per game). The Seawolves have attempted the most treys in America East (482, 25.4 per game) and knock down 8.6 (tied second, AE) per outing.
Guard Lucas Woodhouse leads the pack with 14.6 points per game, tenth in America East. Woodhouse is the league's top disher, averaging 5.3 assists per game, and is third in assist-to-turnover ratio (3.0). Tyrell Sturdivant is the Seawolves' swiss army knife, averaging 12.5 points and 6.3 caroms per game and shoots 49.1 percent from the floor.
THE SERIES: The Retrievers actually held an 8-5 lead over Stony Brook through the 2007-08 campaign, but the Seawolves have won 17 consecutive contests. They have won 12 of 14 on Long Island, including the last nine.
LAST YEAR'S MEETINGS: Stony Brook swept three games from UMBC in 2015-16, triumphing 86-74 at IFCU Arena on Jan. 13, overwhelming the Retrievers, 75-52, at the RAC Arena on Feb. 11 and prevailing, 86-76, in the America East quarterfinals back on Long Island on March 2.
Stony Brook shot 53.2 percent from the floor in the three contests and outrebounded UMBC by a 6.6 margin. Jairus Lyles averaged 19.7 in the three games, including a 24-point effort in the first meeting, while Will Darley tied a school record with 8 treys (32 points) in the playoff game. UMBC led that one, 62-61, at the midpoint of the second half, but could not pull off the upset.
WHO'S UP NEXT: UMBC returns home to complete the first half of America East competition when they take on the New Hampshire Wildcats on Saturday, Jan. 28. Tip-off time at the RAC Arena is set for 1:00 p.m.

Everyone wants the same thing from marketing - the most business/exposure for the least money/time/effort. People get confused about how to achieve this
and commit resources to the wrong things, often entering into the deadly confirmation bias circle of "but I got this specific piece of business because
of this" while being entirely blind to their opportunity costs. Virtually all marketing will increase your brand in some way; we are here to show you
how to hit the next level instead of just maintaining your status quo.
The most common problem we encounter with established businesses is that they spend far too much money on advertising that has an extremely high cost ROI (Return on Investment), like billboards, and try to avoid spending money on things with the low cost ROI, like quality websites, or Google Adwords, usually because they don't understand them.
The most common problem we encounter with new businesses is that they avoid marketing entirely. They take a do it yourself approach and get stuck in the same place because they refuse to commit time and resources to business growth. Your website and marketing are just as vital to your business as your office rent is. Only two things cause business growth, marketing and the economy. In a good economy everything grows, but the only way to have a legitimate successful business is with good marketing. Marketing should be 10-30% of your overall costs, depending on how aggressive you want your growth to be.
We have broken the budgets down into specific levels to let you know what you should be doing at each level. Each level includes all levels before it.
This is the interest building phase for no budget or low budget businesses.
The first step for most businesses is to create a Facebook page. Facebook pages allow you to get your contact information published to the internet for free. This can be done here. All social media platforms have a time vs cost benefit and Facebook pages can easily be managed by people without technical skills.
This is for low budget businesses that are interested in generating a profit and needs base level legitimacy.
Wix, Weebly, Squarespace, and several other services allow you to build a website on your own by selecting a template and adding your own content to their prebuilt website. This is more complicated than creating a Facebook page, but does not require any actual web coding or knowledge. These websites typically charge in the range of $10-$100 a month and allow you to have a business card website. Some design companies use one of these do it yourself web builders and sell them to clients. If you do not want to spend time doing it yourself these companies are an option, but you need to know they are not the same as hiring a real developer and are not worth more than around $500. These platforms are for entry level websites only.
Another free tool every business needs to utilize is Google Business Pages, which can be found here. Creating a business page with Google is free and allows you to show up in search and on google maps. Creating a Google Business Page automatically creates a Google+ Page so fill in that information too.
Your website is the face of your business and needs to be done effectively. You can view our article on What You Need to Know About Websites
There are several directory listings online that allow people to find your business.
Most of these are free, and virtually all of them help with local SEO (Search Engine Optimization) because it helps search engines validate your business as legitimate. Moz.com/local allows you to search for your business to see where you are listed. They charge $99 a year to keep them updated for you, or you can go to each website individually and add your business information on your own.
To gain website traffic you need to show up in search engines. Having a quality website is important, but SEO balancing is important to keep your website
current to the needs of your users. Basic SEO shouldn't cost more than $100-$200 a month, and how much this helps will depend on the level of competition.
This should always be managed by the company that handles your website. We include this on all our websites.
This is the time to create other social media accounts such as Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, a LinkedIn business page, or anything else that can be useful in your industry. Each of these accounts will provide a small boost to your SEO. You either need to do this yourself or hire the company that handles your website to do this for $100-$300 a month.
Facebook ads allow you to advertise your business to get more followers, or specific posts to get exposure. Facebook ads fall under social media advertising and should be taken out of that budget.
SEM, Search Engine Marketing, is paying to be in the ad spaces at the top of the search results for Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc. An appropriate starting
point is $500-$2000 a month. For most businesses this is the easiest way to quickly generate more phone calls or sales.
Videos can be commercials for your social media, testimonials for your company, or something educating your customers. These should be professionally shot and edited. Leave iphone videos to snapchat and facebook live. Videos cost anywhere from $500-$10,000+ each, depending on length, subject matter, and quality. They can be expensive to shoot, but they get more engagement than any other platform. Once you start shooting Videos you can create a Youtube channel and start doing video ads on Facebook and Youtube.
Email Newsletters are email campaigns that regularly send emails to your prospective client base. These can have blogs, videos, coupon codes, happy birthday or anniversary messages, as well as any other content they may find interesting. These are great for retail industries that send coupon codes and alert the user to new products, dentists that remind someone to come in for a checkup, or just sending happy birthday messages to your customers. These cost $50 a newsletter and up.
Mid-level SEO should be around $200-$500 a month and success will depend on competition.
Intermediate social media should be around $300 - $1000 a month.
Blogs are articles published to your website and social media that help customers learn about your business or industry. Blogs give you authority in your
field and help customers feel more comfortable with your business. It is imperative that blog articles are specifically written for your business and provide
content people are interested in. If the content is too generic and nobody is interested in it, then it won't provide any value. Good blog articles take
time and research from people that know how to write for the web; never use discount companies that try to sell articles for $25. Blog articles should
either be written internally or cost around $200-$1,000 apiece.
Mid-Level SEM is between $2,000-$5,000 a month. Google assigns a quality score to its ads based on the quality of the website it is linking to. To reduce the cost per click it is imperative you have a good web agency that is able to work with your website to increase the quality of your content and SEO to make the ads more relevant to your website.
Mid-Level social media should be $1,000-$3,000 a month.
Advanced SEO is up to around $1000 a month. This will require more attention than smaller accounts. It should focus on more keywords and be geared around
helping to create content to help with the rankings.
Advanced SEM is $5,000-$20,000+ a month. It is important this is handled properly so that budgets at this level are effectively utilized. With budgets at this level you should get special attention from the company handling your account. Website banner ads are the ads you see at the top of, and side of, websites that you visit. These can work on any budget you want and get a good amount of visibility, but shouldn't be done until this point because even with a somewhat low cost of entry are relatively ignored. You should test this at $1000 a month and go up from there.
Advanced Social Media should be around $3,000-$10,000 a month.
You should not begin to invest in billboards until you have done all of these things. Billboards do get attention, but have extremely low conversion without the rest of your marketing in place. They help generate your brand by getting your name out there, but if people can't find you then it won't matter. Billboards are extremely expensive and should never be more than 10% of your marketing budget. Billboard companies charge drastically difference prices for the same exposure so be sure to compare prices.
Once you have reached this point you should be inundating the market through multiple platforms. You should be doing regular blogs and videos. Your social
media should have a large number of followers. Your Email Newsletters should be doing well with a large subscriber base. Your website should be exactly
what you want it to be.
High Level Social Media should be $10,000-$50,000 a month.
With Netflix and other streaming services taking over, cable television channels do not get nearly as much viewership as they used to. Some stations try to charge 5-10 times as much as their competitors, so make sure you compare prices of all the possible networks before committing to anything.
SEO of this level is hard to quantify; the cost will be whatever it takes to make sure you are the top position for all the keywords you want to rank
for. The majority of this will be generating your brand and providing the content people want. High level Google Adwords campaigns can run over $100,000
a month for large national companies. Your budget will really depend on your needs and goals.
At this level you should be producing high level videos on a regular basis. They should be creative and memorable. Videos that go viral today are not the same as 30 second commercials of the past. You need videos that make people emotional and get them talking.
Once your business reaches this size your marketing products should be custom built for you. You are past the point of worrying about budgets and need to focus on the quality of your ads.
Your company needs to focus on quality. You should be the leader of your industry and ahead of all new technologies. Your main goals going
forward are brand reputation, product distribution, and business efficiency.
Specialty advertising is anything specific to your industry. These things should be relatively low cost and evaluated based on your industry. A realtor
having a website that allows users to view houses on their website instead of a competitor, or utilizing 3D virtual walkthrough cameras, or drones for
aerial views, are examples of specialty advertising.
Phone Books: When do you do phone book ads? Never. You never do phone book ads. Phone books are dead. They have had a difficult time being profitable for over ten years now and are a sales driven industry. They promise things that are not true and prey on people that do not understand modern marketing. To stay alive they have had to either significantly reduce service, or significantly increase prices, usually both. Even at level 10 phone books are not worth it. You should also avoid doing business with phone book companies that have started selling digital products for the same reasons. They are very good at selling, and very bad at customer service and providing quality products.
Magazine Ads: Magazine ads fall under custom products and specialty advertising. Unless you have a major brand with millions a month in marketing budgets then large magazines will never be worth it. Small local magazines usually fall under the same category as phone books and have an ROI that does not add up. If you are going to do a small local ad then the cost for a full-page ad should be less 5 cents per magazine in circulation. (if they have a circulation of 10,000 then your full-page ad should not cost more than $500. Most print companies will tell you this is ridiculous, but your goal is for you to make money, not for them to make money) You also need to be sure they put you in between content pages and not inside several pages of ads that will be skipped over by the readers. Digital products specifically target users that may be interested in your product, print products blindly target everyone. Someone viewing your digital ad often only costs fractions of a cent, so there isn't a way to justify local magazines that charge thousands for full page ads with circulations that only exist in waiting rooms.
Radio Ads: Radio is dying, but isn't nearly as dead as phone books are. They fall under custom or specialty, like magazine ads, but generally reach more of an audience than a print ad does. More people will turn the page or throw out a magazine without reading it than will change the channel on the radio. Radio is good for time based ads. Things like seasonal ads for a Halloween or Christmas store, or companies that come into town and only do business for a weekend like modeling conventions or farmers markets. For established businesses that are always in an area the return isn't as good as other options, but for businesses that have time sensitive ads it can be worth it.
Mailers: With as easy as it has become to target specific geographic areas mailers are no longer worth the investment. If you have a specialty product that you feel would benefit from this, then it can count as specialty advertising, but should never be done large scale, it costs too much.
Networking: Networking is important at every level and is separate from your marketing budget.
Reputation: Reputation is also important at every level and should always be given priority to everything else.

The Christian religion places a huge emphasis on blood. Specifically, this faith is centered on the blood of One Man (and his sacrificial death) and the temple rituals found in the Old Testament point to this Man.
What happened on the cross has remarkable implications for us today. As Ted Olson wrote in an older piece in Christianity Today, Jesus' blood "justifies, redeems, reconcile, sanctifies, justifies, cleans, frees, ransoms, brings peace, and unites us." The New Testament writers connect so many pieces of Christ's salvific work with his blood.
For those in Christ, we have joy beyond all measure because what Jesus has done.
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

Peterson wants to write in the Lavish Nick in Theory, as Wallace Stevens might want to "wink at that wink in the design". For Plato there is unity within difference but for Peterson "a theory works if it answers accretions" (Swallowtails); it is never final, it too is evolving. There will be fruitful results if the poet does not stray into fancy, but remains in the hardcore centre of imaginative capability.
You remember poets those that write tangibly, about the intangibles
the way confident water softens read beans overnight
just by conviction
We have seen earlier in Peterson that making tangible the intangible is an aesthetic concern. After all, electricity is abstract until it buzzes up your arm. But Peterson is also concerned with defining, as in "to define is to limit". In the poem "Viscosity" the onions shed their skin in layers, losing some part of their essence, and 'something goes missing'. This dark matter is always within what we consider the final, finished object. Indeed, the dark matter that completes the object. Perhaps, he theorises, this is why sketches are so compelling, often more so than paintings, because the 'unfinished sketch' can 'induce' the final painting, it still contains all future possibilities, all future endings. This is how it sheds its dark matter. It sheds its dark matter (it's exclusions) by maintaining the possibility of their return. Likewise the poem ended, contained, air-proofed in its jar, is a poem of 'desperate messages/ turning yellow on the shelves/ whether handled or ignored'.
Where the word and poem might exclude in order to define itself, yet remain essentially open, the device or spirit of this theory is itself in operation in the human spirit, in kinship and conscience, in the human affirmation: "yes to prints", "yes to innocent ginkgoes'", yes to
Even in December it is summer by the lamps
and we linger there
the dust like diatoms in the salty ocean falling slowly
hanging suspended
and the myriad-hands of possibility within each cell, each dust mote, holds them, unfallen for an eternity in mind and resemblance, the remembrance of the time he first saw Francis in her studio, the aroma of printmaking that even now has not yet reached the ceiling. The image or scene is not ended, it is connected to the ocean scene, and that connection is fired in the brain and forever. What is interesting here on a structural level is that the dust motes falling in the dark of the ocean are buoyed by a forest of hands in the molecules themselves (and I take these to represent "blind process"), and the aromatic print particles ascending in the daylight studio, in labour, in love are likewise always ascending, and (by parataxis) also perhaps a similarly "blind process". Both scenes are impregnated with the dark matter of absence, as dark is by light, and light by dark.
It is the scene in light that thickened in memory, time chemically slowed, attains viscosity in cross-sense memory, sight, smell, solidified, yet like glass never fully settled. Even though we are falling in the dark, in the blind hands of process, there are cross currents that connect, and in themselves become a living thought, a cosmic synapse.

The rules are:
1 The wizard must choose an album. Then, every track on it is a spell. Whenever the character learns that spell, the GM describes it's effects, using the song title (if this cannot be possible, use the song theme or feeling).
2 The wizard earns a spell per level, following the strict album's order.
3 The wizard can only know 4 max spells (like in the pokemon games). When he/she tries to learn a fifth, another spell may be forgotten; or the new spell withers away and is crossed from the list (this is for preventing players from abusing the system by picking a Rancid or Bull of Heaven album)
I'll make an example there using a classic: Pink Floyd's Wish you were here. (Note: the descriptions are system agnostic. I can not help tending more into the narrative style)
1 - Shine on you, Crazy Diamond: Anyone touched by the wizard emits a subtle, white glow; while his/her feet subtly detach from the ground; as gravity no longer pulls him/her down. Swimming in the air is possible as there is friction. Requires ongoing concentration by the wizard.
2 - Welcome to the Machine: The arcane technomancer wizards can bind the soul of a recently dead person into an engineered golem. It can be made of any kind of material; but the whole construct must share a key trait with the hostage personality or previous body.
3 - Have a Cigar: This spell can lit anyone in flames as long as the wizard is shaking hands with him. This picture (album's cover) illustrates it nicely:
4 - Wish you were here: By drawing a circle and praying, the wizard may attempt to summon a soulmate; always granted that he/she/it is willing to help. Dead people may also come; as ghosts or spectres.
5 - Shine on you, crazy diamond (Part II): This spell can make anybody affected by the spell #1 to burst in flames spontaneously, by a snap of the wizard's fingers.

We will have a federal election on October 19, 2015. The political leaders have aired their views and had debates on a variety of issues of concern to Canadians. Many families struggle to meet their monthly rent due to rising rental cost. Community housing is not an option for them as there is a huge backlog of applicants on waiting lists. Moreover, most of the community housing buildings are in need of massive repairs and renovations. In light of the ongoing housing crisis, the lack of affordable housing and increase in homelessness should be more of a priority for all political parties and included in their platform.
The Advocacy Centre for Tenants Ontario (ACTO) and the Right to Housing Coalition are joining groups and individuals across Canada in a national week of action to address the issue of affordable housing and homelessness. The Right to Housing Forum is part of a national week of action taking place September 23rd-30th.
The Federation of Metro Toronto Tenants Association (FMTA) has extended an invitation to attend the Right To Housing Forum that will take place in Toronto on September 30, 2015. The FMTA recognizes that there is an affordable housing and homelessness crisis in Canada and the government is doing little to fix it. Affordable housing should be an election issue. You are invited to this Right to Housing Forum to talk about the affordable housing and homelessness crisis in the context of housing as a right.
This event will be held at Ryerson University Library Building, Room 72, 350 Victoria St., Toronto. TIME: 6:30pm – 8:30pm
Refer to this link to view the flyer for full details: https://righttohousing.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/votehousing4all_actoforum_flyer.pdf

Like all Americans I remember the planes striking the Twin Towers on 9/11/2001. I watched in terror as the buildings tumbled to the ground. I watched the newscasts on every channel on TV. I heard all the personal stories. I heard about all the people who were killed. It was a time all of us will remember. It was a wake up call for all Americans. It happened on Tuesday. I was at work and everyone gathered around the TV in our Break Room. Everyone left their desks and we all watched together. Some were angry. A few cried. The following Sunday was very dramatic. The Church was full. It was very quiet. Everyone had a somber look. It was a time I will never forget. The Pastor had a moving message. The Choir had a Patriotic song. It was a moving experience for young and old alike. There have been many memorable services in the history of the church. The dedication of Solomon's temple was a memorable service. It took sever years and six months to complete the building. The people were anxious to worship God in His House. The Ark was put in it's place. There was a great orchestra and choir to lead the people in praising God. The Lord filled the temple with the cloud of glory which represented His presence.
We should have that same experience today. We need to claim His presence each time we assemble with fellow Christians. Matthew 18:20 - For where two or three gather in My name, there am I with them. When you go into Church this Sunday morning look for Him to be there with you. Feel His presence. Praise His name. Feel the glory of God.

Hi JT,
I remember 9-11 quite well. I was not saved at the time, but I was one of those who attended church for a few weeks after, then back to my old self. But, praise God, about 2 years later He saved me.
Yes, let claim His presence next and every Sunday.
God bless,

I remember 911 very well and it was the same in our church. It is great to feel the presences of the Lord in church. When you can feel his presences then you know that you have been to church and had church!

Enjoyed your post today.It was a well remembered sad day for America that fatal day. It really shook up many people. It is sad that it sometimes takes something tragic to get people to worship God. So many like Peter follow God from afar off. "Peter followed him afar off. Matt. 26:58"
John said: "Little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence,
and not be ashamed before him at his coming. I John 2:28"

Hi JT,
I remember 9/11/2001 very well.
I used to work at the World Trade Center, Twin Towers many years ago. It was devastating to me, since I'd still had friends working there. I called them up to see if they were doing fine. Of course, they told me the story what they had seen, and it had been a dreadful experience and trauma for all of them who watched as witnessed. Many folks have gathered at the scene afterwards for many years to come. Thank you, JT for posting this touching message as a memorable experience for all Americans!!
God bless you, JT and those you love!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
All the best.
In God's Garden,
Poet Starry Dawn.

MUITO BOM! Eu acredito que Deus criou o homem e deixou o manual de instrução, a "BÍBLIA SAGRADA!" A bíblia é a divina revelação da palavra de Deus e não produtos enlatados, eu costumo dizer que: "As pessoas precisam parar de comer tudo o que dão. E começar a questionar! " Alguém escuta alguma coisa de alguém, e saem falando, sem questionar, sem saber se é verdade ou não. As pessoas precisam se perguntar! Será que a minha crença esta de acordo com a lei de Deus? Será que a religião que eu nasci sempre me falou a verdade? Quando uma pessoa morre pra onde ela vai? Ela volta? A bíblia apóia o homossexualismo? Quem não herdara o reino de Deus? O que devo saber sobre idolatria, imagens e escultura? O que devo saber sobre o único batismo? Será que tem uma seqüência para salvação? A quem eu devo me confessar, quem pode me perdoar? Religião salva alguém? Essas e outras perguntas e respostas em:
Você pode dizer, eu já sou salvo amém! Vamos atrás de quem não esta, "Se você quer se dar bem com o mundo seja hipócrita, mas se você quer se dar bem com Deu seja verdadeiro!" divulgue este site, porque: "Eis que vêm dias, diz o Senhor Jeová, em que enviarei fome sobre a terra, não fome de pão, nem sede de água, mas de ouvir as palavras do Senhor. E irão vagabundos de um mar até outro mar, e do norte até ao oriente; correrão por toda parte, buscando a palavra do Senhor, e não a acharão." ( Amós cap 8 ver 11 e 12 )Fale para outras pessoas, por que "O Senhor não retarda a sua promessa, ainda que alguns têm por tardia: mas é longânimo para convosco, não querendo que alguns se percam, senão que todos venham a arrepender-se." (II Pedro cap. 3 ver 8) e "Que quer que todos os homens se salvem, e venham ao conhecimento da verdade. Porque há um só Deus, e um só Mediador entre Deus e os homens, Jesus Cristo o homem. (I A Timóteo cap 2 ver 5 e 6)
Seja sua bíblia, católica ou evangélica, aqui você vai tirar suas duvidas.
E conhecereis a verdade, e a verdade vos libertara (João cap 8 ver 32) Se você tiver coragem de perguntar, a bíblia terá coragem de responder!

Jax Fish House in Denver closes Jan. 1 for two-week remodeling
Jax Fish House in Denver is taking New Year's Eve to heart, ringing out the old and ringing in the new with a two-week remodeling that will close the restaurant starting Jan. 1. Of course, they'll still do their annual Dec. 31 blowout, complete with bubbly and noisemakers.
"This is just a matter of continuing to evolve," says owner Dave Query, who opened Jax's LoDo room in November 1996, refurbishing the old Terminal Bar memorialized in a Tom Waits song. "The bar will expand and it will have a new look and menu, but with the same staff, which is a team crucial to our success," says Query, who has been an area restarateur for more than 20 years.
Jax, which opened its first restaurant in Boulder, is arguably responsible for bringing super-fresh seafood to Denver — at least in a way that stuck. More than a few Colorado residents had their first bites of Kumamoto and Fanny Bay oysters at the raw bar, thanks to Jax and air couriers.

Barricaded suspect in custody after standoff in Apple Valley
APPLE VALLEY, Calif. (VVNG.com) A barricaded suspect was injured Friday night after he was shot with a "less than lethal" weapon in Apple Valley.
It happened at about 1:50 p.m. when deputies from the Apple Valley Sheriff's responded to the 22600 block of Lone Eagle Road and found a man barricaded inside the home.
According to witnesses, during the hours-long stand-off, the suspect taunted, threatened and at one point rushed at deputies. A bean bag round was fired at the suspect, striking him in the leg as he retreated back into the residence, witnesses said.
Later, scanner traffic reported, the suspect was heard shouting that he was down near the doorway and unable to move. Moments later, deputies apprehended the suspect without incident and discovered he was critically injured, possibly from the less than lethal bean bag round lodged in his leg.
The suspect was bleeding profusely from the wound and paramedics were requested to expedite to the scene. Due to his injuries, he was later airlifted Arrowhead Regional Medical Center.
Details on what led deputies to the stand-off are unknown at this time.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department Public Information Officer has not responded to a media inquiry requesting additional information.
Please check back for updates as they are received.

The Belmont Abbey baseball team split a doubleheader with the visiting King University Tornado this afternoon at Abbey Yard. King won the opener 7-6 in seven innings and the Crusaders avoided the three game sweep with an 8-6 win in game two. King is now 16-16 overall and 10-7 in league play, while the Crusaders are now 17-16 overall and 12-9 in Conference Carolinas.
In the opener, which was seven innings, King moved ahead 2-0 in the top of the second on a two RBI double by J.P. Castaneda. Belmont Abbey matched it in the second, as Josh Genthe delivered an RBI double left, scoring Nick Nunziato. Genthe later scored on Matt McGarry's single to right to tie the game at two.
Two innings later, the Tornado plated two unearned runs courtesy of two Crusaders errors, but the Abbey powered ahead in the fifth, as Lorenzo Wright tripled home McGarry. Wright scored on the play as the Tornado was charged with a throwing error. The miscue tied the game at four. Two batters later, Anthony Dimino clubbed an RBI single to center, scoring Kayden Krause to move the Crusaders ahead 5-4.
The lead did not last long, as King scored three times in the sixth, two coming on a Josh Stephens single to center and the other on a Tyler Raymond single that was misplayed, allowing Stephens to score an unearned run all the way from first.
McGarry cut the King lead to 7-6 in the bottom of the sixth, as he tripled home Weston Clarke, who led off the inning with a double.
In the seventh, Jose Sola led off with a double but was left stranded as Ryan Allen retired the next three batters.
Down to its final three outs, the Abbey put the tying run on third in the form of Lorenzo Wright with two outs, but a flyout ended the game.
Matt Jackson earned the win in relief for the Tornado, as he retired the only batter he faced in a third of an inning. Nathan Helke picked up the save, working the final two innings, allowing one run on two hits. Allen went the distance, allowing seven runs, four earned, striking out five and walking four.
Belmont Abbey finished with nine hits as McGarry led the way with three with two RBI.
In game two, the Crusaders never trailed as they bolted ahead 3-0 in the first. Wright scored on a sacrifice fly from Nunziato. Clarke doubled home Dimino and McGarry singled home Clarke for a 3-0 lead.
Two innings later the Crusaders struck for three more, as Dimino singled home Krause. Dimino then scored on Clarke's double to right. Nunziato later scored on a safety squeeze by Levi Wright for a 6-0 lead.
After King cut the lead to 6-4 in the fourth, Krause made it 7-4 in the bottom of the inning as his flyout to left was deep enough to score Conor Kwalwasser.
King began its rally in the sixth, as Moises Soto singled home Douglas to close the gap to 7-5. One inning later, Sola doubled home Raymond and moved to third on the throw, and he later raced home on a wild pitch to cut the gap to 7-6.
Belmont Abbey added a valuable insurance run in the seventh as Krause was hit by a pitch, moved to second on a groundout, to third on a wild pitch and scored on another wild pitch to extend the Abbey's lead to 8-6.
The Tornado threatened in the eighth but a double play groundout and a flyout ended the threat. King made noise in the ninth, as it loaded the bases with two outs, but Brandon O'Sullivan nailed down the save with a fielders choice groundout to end the game.
Matt Davenport went seven innings to earn the win, as he allowed five runs, four earned, on ten hits, striking out five. O'Sullivan earned the save as he retired the only batter he faced. Mitch Stophel, the first of four Tornado pitchers, suffered the loss after giving up five runs on five hits in two innings.
The Crusaders finished with eight hits as Dimino led the way with three. Clarke added two with two RBI.

Our books inspire faithful interaction with issues of importance to the church and the world.
The Brazos Story
Brazos Press was formed to publish across denominational and historical boundaries, nourishing readers with the wisdom of God's people from ancient Israel and the earliest church to contemporary Christians from around the globe. More than fifteen years into this endeavor, we find the need persists to hear from authors across the spectrum of the catholic Christian tradition who speak to the full range of issues that arise when we engage with our world and our neighbors. Publishing culturally savvy yet unapologetically Christian books, Brazos brings the Great Tradition into conversation with diverse human experience in the twenty-first century—The Tradition Alive.
Our Readers and Authors
Brazos readers are both curious and discerning. They want books that will challenge them intellectually and spiritually, deepening their understanding of God's creation and inspiring them toward faithful reflection and engagement. They crave high quality books that are well crafted, theologically perceptive, and fully engaged with modern life.
Our aim is to build a carefully curated list of highly regarded books notable for the significance of their authors, the import of their topics, and the contribution they make to public discourse. Brazos authors are leading thinkers writing on topics such as cultural engagement, public life, spirituality, ethics, and Christian belief. They have something to say and can write with both skill and passion, demonstrating that serious writing can also be lively, stimulating, and compelling.
Over the years, Brazos has been grateful to partner with authors who are among the most significant voices of our time, such as Jim Wallis, Lauren Winner, Miroslav Volf, Scot McKnight, Shane Claiborne, James K. A. Smith, Karen Swallow Prior, Alan Hirsch, David Gushee, Peter Enns, Christian Smith, Bethany Hanke Hoang, Wesley Hill, Kevin Vanhoozer, Soong-Chan Rah, Sarah Arthur, Craig Detweiler, Richard Mouw, Peter Leithart, A. J. Swoboda, and C. Christopher Smith.

The Duke of Burgundy is one of the UK's fastest declining butterflies, having suffered a population drop of 35% from 1979 to 2008. It has disappeared from at least 153 of its former known sites. Butterfly Conservation's 'The Dukes on the Edge' project (2011-2014) is targeting an area in the South East of England where the rapidly declining butterfly is clinging to survival.
Heyshott Escarpment, located within a small corner of the South Downs National Park, is one of the Duke's few remaining strongholds. However, this is only being achieved by the continuing conservation efforts of a small group of dedicated individuals under the guidance and leadership of Neil Hulme (Sussex Butterfly Conservation) and ecologist Mike Edwards (The Murray Downland Trust). Work, undertaken by volunteers in both Kent and Sussex, has shown that populations can recover where appropriate habitat management is implemented and this is the trend currently being observed at Heyshott. The Duke of Burgundy is reliant on scrubby calcareous grassland and sunny woodland clearings where its eggs are deposited on cowslip, or primrose in more wooded environments. Changes in the nature of agricultural and forestry practices have led to required habitats becoming overgrown and consequently unsuitable. As the Duke has struggled to find the food plants it needs to breed and prosper, it has sadly become extinct across much of its former range in the UK. Butterfly Conservation is leading the fight to save this fascinating butterfly and through the Dukes on the Edge project aims:
To assess the status of the Duke of Burgundy and its habitat
To maintain and enhance existing habitat and create new Duke of Burgundy habitat (e.g. through coppicing, ride management, scrub management)
Undertake reintroductions on selected sites
Monitoring the impact of management on habitat condition and the butterfly's population.
Project activities:
Public events to raise awareness of the conservation importance of the South Downs for the Duke of Burgundy
The creation of a 'Dukes on the Edge Action Group'.
Mapping of the locations of managed habitat, together with Duke of Burgundy records on GIS
Training events for volunteers to enable them to participate in conservation tasks, surveying and monitoring

Propelled by a nationwide surge in hate crimes, lawmakers in several states are working to deter potential offenders with harsher punishments, NBC News reported.
Bills in New York would, among other things, make cemetery desecration a felony, and a Connecticut bill promises to be the most comprehensive hate crime legislation to date by introducing a sweeping collection of new statutes.
In Alabama, lawmakers have introduced legislation to classify threats against houses of worship and schools as acts of terrorism.
U.S. & World
In Illinois, a new bill seeks to eliminate loopholes that could prevent a hate-crime designation, the bill's sponsor, state Rep. Stephanie Kifowit, a Democrat, told NBC News.
According to the most recently released FBI crime statistics, hate crimes around the nation have been on the rise, increasing by 7 percent from 5,479 incidents in 2014 to 5,850 incidents in 2015. Anti-black hate crimes rose by 7.6 percent from 2014 to 2015 — from 1,621 incidents to 1,745.

Beer of the Craft Varietyby Chris Becicka
We're talking craft beer here, the now nearly ubiquitous beer whose popularity has soared.
Regional craft breweries, microbreweries, and brew pubs (the total category) have really taken off from the mid-90s, rising from 537 to 3,464 in 2014. Hence, all the noise about them – it's a battle out there. In Kansas City, beer aficionados are familiar with the huge variety of choices, from the local area to nationwide. In fact, a friend just showed me a picture of a restaurant's menu in Beijing that was featuring Boulevard Beer.
|Biergarden at Grunauer
So what constitutes a craft beer? The Craft Brewers Association defines it as small (fewer than 6 million gallons annually), independent (less than 25% of it is owned or controlled by a bigger company who is not a craft brewer) and traditional (a majority of its total beverage alcohol volume in beers whose flavor derives from traditional or innovative brewing ingredients and their fermentation.) What it's not: Bud Light or Coors or PBR.
The most common types of craft beers, like all beers, are ales and lagers. Ales are usually stronger in taste due to the fact they are fermented warmer and faster than lagers. That is also why they are more popular than lagers in brewpubs especially – they can be ready in about a week. Ales include brown ales, usually milder with coffee, caramel, or toffee flavors; pale ales are sharper and more bitter. This is the category that includes IPAs, India Pale Ale, so popular now. Porters are darker and "thicker," and their cousins, stouts, are even darker and more viscous than porters. Ales are served at room temperature normally, unlike their colder counterparts.
Those cold lagers are more trouble and take longer to make. They are made with bottom-fermenting yeast and brewed at colder temperatures – hence they take longer to make, weeks or months instead of days. They also tend to be somehow crisper or more mellow according to some. They are always served at a colder temperature, best at about 40 degrees.
There are four broad categories of lagers. Pale lagers are, well, pale. Light. Highly carbonated, these beers are what most Americans consider to be mainstream. Pilsners are similar except they are usually more bitter and their taste more distinctive. Marzens, also called Oktoberfest beers, are more full bodied and usually amber or dark copper in color and taste more malty. Bocks are heartier still and are both hoppy (bitter) and malty (sweeter).
Of course, a craft beer devotee could add much more description to the above, and a certified or master cicerone – someone who has actually passed difficult tests in beer knowledge and serving – could just wax poetic explaining more than you could ever ask about all beers. Wesley Boston, Executive Chef at Sullivan's and a certified cicerone (and sommelier) is an example of a passionate beer guy. "Beers are just as varied, just as complex, as wine," he says. "But they're less expensive and can be a lot more fun!"
Craft beers are in front of the public in both smaller and larger ways. Events featuring beers now occur continually. There are regular tours, tap nights, brewery nights, and special city-wide events all the time. These include parties such as the Kansas City Craft Beer Week, Westport Summer Beer Festival, Boulevardia, or the City Market Beer Festival which just occurred. Coming up are the UNICO Microbrew Fest in Zona Rosa (August 15) or the September 5th Craft Beer Festival of the Lost Township (Raytown) or the High Plains Brewhoff in downtown Overland Park (September 19). Grünauer's 6th annual Oktoberfest begins on September 25th and is overflowing with beer, food, and music. They offer not only local beers but also central European beers all the time, not just during the festival.
Not only does Kansas City have its own established craft breweries (besides the ever expanding Boulevard, there are probably around 20), but we keep spawning new ones. Four or five have surfaced in the last year or so, and another is on its way to the east Crossroads. Developed by Ted Habiger (of Room 39 fame and a James Beard award semi-finalist in 2014) and partners, it's called Brewery Emperial. Slated to open early in 2016, it will brew 12 beers, Americanized versions of classic European Beers and food will be gastropub(y) with a wood-fired grill.
|BD's Craft Beer Offerings
It's also true that practically all of our restaurants have embraced both local and national craft beers. Besides the growing popularity of these beers, chefs have begun to recognize the pairing affinities possible with beer.
Some restaurants like BD's Mongolian Grill in Independence not only serve but truly highlight craft beers which certainly entice a certain clientele to visit frequently. For instance, BD's has typically 50 craft beers on tap and 200 bottled beers in their Beer Library at to-go prices. Every two months they feature a craft beer brewery with giveaways and the rep there to answer questions. Their refillable Howlers and Growlers are a beer lover's carry-out or in-restaurant liquid dream.
Speaking of sometimes the most unexpected places have a large craft beer selection, besides BD's we have to mention Hawg Jaw Que and Brew in Riverside. Currently they have over 20 microbrews and are looking at adding many more. One especially cool thing? If you go in and they don't have your fav, they'll order it for you. Can't resist adding that they have all kinds of old fashioned sodas for the kids, too.
Waldo Pizza in Lee's Summit is another somewhat surprising craft beer hangar. Around 20 beers on tap are craft beers and another 40 or so in bottles are as well. Their Waldo location has even more bottled varieties, about 90 or so, and they sponsor a brewer of the month when the brewer comes in and hosts a special evening. Their staff is particularly knowledgeable about their beers, which is important to those who don't know what to choose among so many. Pizza never tasted so good. We wonder if there is a particularly great beer to go with their homemade desserts, too. Places like Westside Local know they must appeal to beer drinkers with more than Bud Light. They emphasize local breweries with ten or 12 on tap and a varying selection of national beers. Cleaver and Cork has six craft beers on tap, and another 30+ in bottles – they recognize beer's flexibility with both casual and upscale food. The Pig & Finch in Leawood expands their clientele every other month when they do a beer dinner, utilizing such brewers is Mother's out of Springfield, Missouri or River North Brewing next door in Denver.
Upscale restaurants are certainly not missing out on this trend. They all know they must offer a few craft beers, at least. Practically all of the beers at The American fit the definition of craft beers. At Sullivan's Steakhouse, the aforementioned Wesley Boston, a Certified Cicerone®, admits that probably nothing gives him more pleasure than the three craft beer dinners the restaurant hosts every year. He stocks 8 – 15 staple craft beers and then continually supplements with a revolving list of beers, all reliably tasted. And Jax on the Plaza which serves mostly seafood, also has a number of craft beers which not surprisingly, as their cicerone/sommelier Rick Compton knows, pair well with fish.
Even catering companies have been seeing requests for craft beer for all types of events. Brancato's Catering (they run Harvey's at Union Station) has been complying with this trend for some time at especially corporate events and weddings. People want food stations paired with craft beer. Others want tasting stations with flights of 3 ounce pours with four or five selections on a tray for each person. Laura Fleming, Brancato's Event Coordinator, says that the evolution of craft beer and catering have been parallel over the last few years. Clients' tastes for food, display, and beverages have elevated. Craft beers have become part of a total experience that people want for themselves and their guests."
Credit for the craft beer resurgence has been given to England in the 1970s (though small breweries in Europe have been around for centuries) but only in perhaps the last ten years in this country have they begun their phenomenal ascent. Kansas City reflects this burgeoning interest in high quality, locally produced beers and our restaurants definitely cater to the trend. That's a good thing, for as Plato said, "He is a wise man who invented beer." We add, "and who drinks beer." Craft beer.
What's in a Name?
Craft Beers by Category Microbrewery – produces fewer than 15,000 barrels a year with 75% of it sold off-site.
Brewpub – a restaurant brewery that sells at least 25% of its beer on-site.
Contract Brewing Company -- A business that hires another brewery to produce its beer or one which hires another brewery to produce additional beer
Regional Craft Brewery -- an independent regional brewery with most of its volume in "traditional" or "innovative" beer(s). Emphasis is on quality, flavor, and brewing technique rather than number of gallons produced.
Regional Brewery – annual beer production of between 15,000 and 6,000,000 barrels.
Did You Know?
Vermont ranks first in craft beer drinkers with 16.2 craft gallons per 100,000 21+ year olds.
Missouri is #17 with 2.4 gallons and Kansas is #42 with .6 gallons. But in terms of number of breweries per capita, Missouri is #26 and Kansas #34.
If I Drink Beer, Will I Get Fat?
According to Livestrong.com, typical calories are:
12 ounce light beer: 103
12 ounce regular beer: 153
1.5 ounce 80 proof liquor: 97
6 ounce chocolate martini: 438
8 ounce margarita: 453
8 ounce Singapore sling: 230
1 ounce wine: 25 (you do the math)
So if you're choosing between a craft beer or a chocolate martini, think thin and get the beer. What about you?

There are a several ways to kill process in linux, all of them are very straightforward, you can choose which ways that suitable for you, Because sometime you just need kill process that using a certain port or just kill application directly. On this article, I will only discuss 3 of them. Be wisely, just stopping process that you know and do not be carelessly, stopping process that related to operating system could mess up your day 🙂
As far as we know, all operating system (without exception) have limited resources. Include of memory, port, storage, etc. What should we do is ensure all those resources comply with our needs. There are a condition that we got hang in our apps and operating system needs time to recover those resources. For example, I am using web server (tomcat) that use port 8181, then my tomcat get crash/hang. what should I do is shut down the tomcat service and start again. Unfortunately, the operating system still booked port 8181, With this condition, we have an option to kill that port by our self or just waiting until operating system realized this problem and clear that port. If your choice is kill the port by your self, here we go :
Using fuser
If you have known what port that should be stop, just open terminal or press CTRL+ALT+T, then use the following command :
$fuser -k 8181/tcp
the command above will kill the process, to check whether the port have been free, you can use this :
$fuser 8181/tcp
Using netstat
Open your terminal or press CTRL +ALT+T, then use the following command :
$netstat -anp | grep 8181
with netstat, you will get more detail information about the port. for example :
tcp ? ? ? ?0 ? ? ?0 0.0.0.0:8181 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?0.0.0.0:* ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? LISTEN ? ? ?16360/java
the PID number is 16360, After you are sure that everything is OK. just kill the port with this command :
$sudo kill -9 16360
Using History of application
This way is my favorite, I just need the name of application, with the following command :
$ps -ef | grep tomcat
the output would be like this :
kusa ? ? 16660 ? ? 1 14 13:29 pts/2 ? ?00:00:04
the PID number is 16660, same way as before. Just kill the apps using the PID information :
$sudo kill -9 16360
That's all, The first and the second way is used when you have known the port already. very simple. just like shooting fish in a barrel 🙂

As a writer, sometimes I wonder if what I do really matters, in the long run. After all, my genre is romance and is considered one of the arts. And arts can't change the world in the long run. Or can it?
All this started when I was home sick with a raging sinus infection. I watched a Glee marathon and basically saw the evolution of the series from the start and also realized its impact on society. I researched what I like to call The Glee Effect and mostly found blogs about such issues as GLBT awareness. But I also think it has impacted more. In a purely non scientific theory, I would like to posit that the series made differences in not only awareness of other sexuality in our society, but also in awareness of societal issues including the effect of bullying, the importance of arts in education and hopefully, broadened some horizons.
Writing, like all of the arts sometimes gets downplayed or even criticized for being fluffy, light and not relevant to the real world. But is that true?
Books take us to places that we could never visit in reality. Even if you are reading biographies or documentary style books, you go to places and into the minds of people who you may never visit otherwise. I remember reading Harlequin Romances as a child and learning about exotic locations such as Greece, Spain and England that spurred further research in encyclopedias (those were the days before the internet) that helped in turn with school subjects such as Geography and History. Really, it was kind of amazing at what facts and trivia I captured through reading those "light" romances.
As I grew older, I learned about people who I'd never met before and, through the choices of books I read, this widened my view of the world. I had to think of issues that I'd never personally had to face such as prejudice, life choices such as unwanted pregnancy and other social issues.
Nowadays, there are so many possibilities. Digital and self publishing, as well as small press publishing has opened up such diverse opportunities for writing and reading as romance between multiple partners, LGTB romances and such formerly taboo subjects as BDSM, to name a few. To say that we have other issues to consider is an understatement but I think it's going to widen our horizons and in turn our acceptance even further.
Hopefully, something I write will make a difference in someone's life. I may not know of it and it may not be an earth shattering change but I may provide a fact or opinion that makes someone think. After all, we write to make a difference in someone's life for a short time, right?

I have a Debian server sharing files via Samba. I can access the files via Windows with no problems whatsoever, but when I try to mount the share on a Fedora client using the same credentials I am unable to write to any files. I have proper read access, but no write permissions.
Here are the settings for the share from my smb.conf:
path = /opt/lampp
writable = yes
browsable = yes
I have to assume that it is an issue on the Fedora side of things because accessing the share from Windows works fine. I have also tried mounting via SSHFS with no luck; it also will allow me to read files but not write. However, in Windows, using a program called WebDrive I am able to access the files (essentially via SSHFS) with no issues whatsoever.
I have tried setting up NFS but not much luck there either; I'd rather just stick with Samba if possible.
Any suggestions?

Let's be honest: Johnny Knoxville makes a pretty damn good Bad Grandpa. As Bad Grandpas go, he's a solid 9 -- maybe even a 9.5 on a particularly good (bad) day.
But the baddest grandpa of them all? That honor goes to Tywin Lannister.
Paterfamilias of the family who always pays its debts, master of the withering glare, and grandfather twice over to the sadistic Joffrey Baratheon; Tywin Lannister is the Bad Grandpa's bad grandpa. And with "Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa .5" making its premiere at 10 p.m. ET on June 15, we're going to let Tywin, Bad Grandpa Extraordinaire, be your reminder of why you should be tuning in to watch an old man getting away with murder. Sometimes literally.
1. A Bad Grandpa doesn't want to hear your bleating.
2. And he's not impressed by your title, either.
3. Also: you aren't funny.
4. He's got serious swagger.
5. He knows exactly what your problem is.
6. But when you truly need him, he'll be there.
7. And when he smiles at you, you'll know you've got something special...
8. ...That is, unless he's planning to kill you. Which, to be honest, is just as likely.
"Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa .5" premieres on MTV at 10 p.m. ET, Sunday June 15.
