Have you ever wondered why your gas mileage sometimes looks a little lower than normal, or why your steering wheels seem a little sluggish when driving? Sometimes, your car just appears to be sitting closer to the ground than normal. It will be prudent to observe the parts of your vehicle that should be touching the ground, "the tires" which is most likely the reason for the imbalance. You just might have an issue with inflation.
Tire pressure is one aspect of vehicle maintenance which is mostly taken lightly and mostly neglected by most vehicle users. They loosely believe when their tires seem to have lost little air, they should be well inflated, to keep them standing and ready for the usual day to day activities. Hence, roadside vulcanizer are patronized, which according to reports, have conflicting figures as maximum air pressures for tires.
Do You Know That Different Car Tires Require Different Levels Of Air Pressure?
The two types of air pressure measurement units that car manufacturers often provide are PSI and kPa. To find out how much air pressure you should be pumping into your tires, you may either flip the thick instruction manual for the magical numbers, or just open your driver's side car door and look at the guideline sticker for the manufacturer's recommended tire pressure for your car!
However, most car owners do not know that there is a specified amount of air pressure recommended by manufacturers, for tires. Having the correct tire pressure is extremely important for getting good gas mileage and the most life out of your tires, the recommended tire pressure will give the best gas mileage, handling and tire life for that car which is most times written on the vehicle's door.
Similarly, on newer cars, the recommended tire pressure is most listed on a sticker inside the driver's door, however, if there's no sticker on the door, you can usually find the specs in the owner's manual. Most passenger cars will recommend 32 psi to 35 psi in the tires when they're cold. The reason you check tire pressure when they're cold is that as tires roll along the road, friction between them and the road generates heat, increasing both the temperature and the air pressure. For the most accurate reading (not to mention the most consistent one), make sure the car has been sitting overnight or at least has been parked for a few hours. (As published in an article on Cars.com)
Moreso, front and rear tires may have different measurements for the front and rear tires for optimal handling. Be sure to take note of this as well. As a checking measure, you may check if your tires have been properly inflated by pressing on them. They should not be 'too soft' or 'too stiff' after the beep on the air pumping machine goes off.
Dangers of Over-inflation Of Tires
According to a Premium Times report in December, 2016, where the Federal Road safety Commission FRSC was quoted to have said "50.8 per cent of road accidents were caused by tyre-burst." It is a known fact that One of the major causes of tire burst is overinflation, when tires are overinflated, the following are bound to happen:
Ø Rapid or irregular wear of the tire from increased friction
Ø significant internal tire damage
Ø sudden tire failure
Ø serious injuries, sustained from accidents
Ø Bouncy ride and an Imbalance wheel handling
How Often Should You Check Tire Pressure?
You should check tire pressure at least once a month. Make it part of your monthly maintenance because on average, tires lose approximately 1 pound per square inch (PSI) of tire pressure every month.
Tire pressure can also change drastically in winter temperatures. For every 10 degrees of change in ambient temperature, tire pressure will change by approximately 1 PSI. That's why you always check pressure when the tires are cold, meaning they haven't been driven for at least three hours

A MAN linked to the deaths of 39 Vietnamese migrants found dead in a lorry trailer in Essex is to pay £3,000 in compensation to their families reports the BBC.
The migrants suffocated in the sealed container en route from Zeebrugge to Purfleet in October 2019.
Alexandru-Ovidiu Hanga, 29, of Hobart Road in Essex, admitted conspiring to assist unlawful immigration in 2020 and was sentenced to three years in jail.
He was ordered to pay the money at a confiscation hearing at the Old Bailey.
The migrants, aged 15 to 44, were sealed inside the container for at least 12 hours, before suffering "excruciatingly painful" deaths.
The court heard the Romanian national had benefitted from his "criminal lifestyle" to the sum of £83,552.
But prosecutor Jonathan Polnay said just £3,000 was now available, as he applied for the money to be confiscated under the Proceeds of Crime Act.
The funds will be used to compensate the victims' families for funeral expenses and bereavement.
Hanga collected a number of migrants from a drop-off point in Essex and drove them to a safe house in Dulwich, south-east London, a few weeks before the tragedy.
In his sentencing, Mr Justice Sweeney had noted Hanga had shown "genuine remorse" and only got involved because he felt "beholden" to boss Gheorghe Nica, who was "not the sort of person to say 'no' to".
Dates have been set for further compensation orders on other defendants for later in the year.

TUCAN Travel has a clear focus on interacting with local communities, operating small group tours in South America that stay in smaller hotels and guesthouses, locally owned where possible.
"We do not believe in resorts or 'all inclusive' where customers don't get out and contribute to the area," explained the company's Marketing Executive Emma Nelson. "Except for breakfasts and in more remote areas…meals are not included specifically so that customers have the chance to explore the areas themselves and eat where they like."
Additionally, the tour leaders promote local establishments so that customers not only get authentic food but also contribute to the economy. Tour guides also take travellers to smaller craft markets where customers can pick up locally made souvenirs and clothing instead of going to shops where they are mass produced and imported.
"We [also] do not offer large coach tours and instead our tours mostly travel by either public transport or when necessary private transfers, where the supplier is always a local transport business," says Nelson. "Patagonia is the only destination in South America where we use our own vehicle, because the region is so remote it is necessary."

Rhapsody of Realities Devotional For September 23, 2023, Saturday
Read Rhapsody of Realities Devotional For September 23 2023, Christ Embassy Daily Devotional Message for Saturday written by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome
TOPIC: His Ultimate Purpose
SCRIPTURE: Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints (Colossians 1:26).
Rhapsody of Realities For Today 23 September 2023
The purpose of Jesus' coming to this world was not just to die for our sins. His ultimate purpose was to make us sons of God, so we could have eternal life and be like Him in this world, and in fellowship with God. This is what Satan knows and hates with a passion!
The Apostle John wrote, "And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life" (1 John 5:11-13 NIV).
Now that you're born again, you have the life and nature of God in you. This is the essence of Christianity according to the Bible; it is Christ alive in you! Colossians 1:26-27 says, "Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory."
O, how He wants the whole world to know that they don't have to live the ordinary human life that's depraved and mortal! Remember that Jesus died for everyone in the world, and thus the God-life is available to all. Today, anyone who believes in Jesus Christ and confesses His lordship, receives this God-life and is brought into oneness with God. This was Christ's ultimate purpose.
Dear Father, I'm grateful for the revelation of eternal life that I have received. Therefore, I live in the realm of incorruptibility, immortality, everlasting joy, peace and glory, reigning in life by Christ Jesus. Amen.
John 3:16; Galatians 2:20; John 10:10 AMPC
Ephesians 1:1-14; Isaiah 11-12
Luke 24:28-39; 2 Samuel 19-20
Rhapsody Of Realities 23rd September 2023 Devotional Message. Rhapsody of Realities By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome remains a life-guide with rich and impactful teachings from God's Word. Millions of copies of Rhapsody of Realities, the best-selling daily devotional and Bible study guide have been distributed in 242 countries in 2010 languages of the world… and we're still counting.

Get Current Week Number in Python (Example)
In this tutorial, I'll demonstrate how to return the current number of week in the Python programming language.
Table of contents:
Sound good? Let's just jump right in!
Example Data & Software Libraries
First, we need to import the datetime module.
import datetime # Import datetime module in Python
Next, we'll also need to create some example data:
my_date = datetime.date.today() # Show actual date print(my_date) # 2022-06-13
The previous outputted date will be used for this tutorial.
Example: Get the Current Week Number
To return the week number of a date, we can use the isocalendar function.
This function returns the datetime object as a tuple containing the following information: year, number of week, and day of the week.
year, week_num, day_of_week = my_date.isocalendar() # Using isocalendar() function print("Week #" + str(week_num)) # Showing week number # Week #24
Consider the Python code above. We can use the str() function, to return the data we want to extract, so in our case str(week_num).
Video, Further Resources & Summary
Do you want to know more about the returning of the current week number? Then I recommend having a look at the following video on my YouTube channel. In the video, I illustrate the Python programming syntax of this article:

AARP Eye Center
After working in the New York City Police Department's 911 call center for nearly three decades, Cynthia Murray tried retirement.
She spent time with her grandkids and did some traveling. But after a few years, it started to get "a little boring," she says. So when a friend mentioned a city program for retired civil servants to get part-time work, Murray, 68, did not need persuading.
Silver Stars, officially launched by the city's Department for the Aging in 2022, helps place such retired employees in city agencies while allowing them to continue collecting their pensions.
The program gives retirees such as Murray a way to add routine and purpose to their lives and reinforces the value of older, more experienced workers, says AARP New York State Director Beth Finkel. That's why AARP New York is encouraging the state to create a similar program for retired state employees, Finkel says.
It's one of dozens of recommendations in AARP New York's first-ever state Blueprint for Action, which outlines how the state can improve the lives of older New Yorkers and help them thrive in the workplace. Finkel says New York has the chance to be a national leader on aging by ensuring it leverages the skills and potential of older workers.
Murray works 20 hours a week as a sales associate at the CityStore, which sells New York-related merchandise. She enjoys the social interaction with customers, and the part-time schedule ensures she still has time to spend with her grandkids.
"It's just perfect," Murray says. "It's so different from what I did before. … Plus, with inflation, the extra money helps."
Ageism in the workplace
Combating ageism is a growing AARP priority as older adults become a larger share of the state's population. About 18 percent of New Yorkers were over 65 in 2021, up from 14 percent a decade earlier, according to a 2023 report published by the Center for an Urban Future, a nonpartisan policy group.
About 91 percent of people over 50 say discrimination against older workers is common, according to a 2022 AARP survey.
AARP New York is also pushing for these changes:
- Increased state funding to investigate workplace ageism.
- Inclusion of ageism content in all state anti-discrimination training programs.
- Legislation to prohibit employers from requiring job applicants to disclose their age or date of graduation unless the employer can demonstrate how that information relates to the job.
That measure passed the state Senate last year but didn't progress in the Assembly. State Assemblyman Ron Kim, D-Queens, the bill's 2022 sponsor, says he plans to reintroduce it this year.
"It is vital that we combat age discrimination at a time when our society continues to normalize ageism," Kim says. At least four other states have limited age-related questions in hiring.
Most Americans understand that racial and ethnic bias are -inappropriate, but negative age stereotypes are still socially accepted, says Allison Nickerson, executive director of LiveOn NY, which provides anti-ageism training across the state.
"We would never make jokes about someone's gender, sexual orientation or race," Nickerson says. "But there are constant jokes about age."
Michelle Crouch is a writer living in Charlotte, North Carolina.

15 Feb What is Early Intervention?
Early intervention:
- Is the term used to describe services and support that help babies and toddlers (from birth to 3 years of age in most states/territories) with developmental delays or disabilities and their families.
- May include speech therapy, physical therapy, and other types of services based on the needs of the child and family.
- Can have a significant impact on a child's ability to learn new skills and increase their success in school and life.
- Programs are available in every state and territory. These services are provided for free or at a reduced cost for any child who meets the state's criteria for developmental delay.
Why Early Intervention is Important
- Earlier is better!
- Intervention is likely to be more effective when it is provided earlier in life rather than later.
- "If it's autism, waiting for a child to 'catch up on his own' just won't work. Acting early can help a child communicate, play, and learn from the world now and for the future. It can also prevent frustration—so common in children with communication difficulties—from turning into more difficult behaviors." Pennsylvania clinical psychologist
- The connections in a baby's brain are most adaptable in the first three years of life. These connections, also called neural circuits, are the foundation for learning, behavior, and health. Over time, these connections become harder to change.
- "The earlier developmental delays are detected and intervention begins, the greater the chance a young child has of achieving his or her best potential." Georgia pediatrician
Intervention works!
- Early intervention services can change a child's developmental path and improve outcomes for children, families, and communities.
- "Acting early gives your child a chance to receive the appropriate therapy, giving him or her the best chance for a good outcome in the future. I believe that early intervention is the reason my high-functioning son is now able to blend in with his peers and attend kindergarten in a regular classroom with no supports." Kansas mom
- Help your child, help your family!
- Families benefit from early intervention by being able to better meet their children's needs from an early age and throughout their lives.
"Action replaced fear and empowered me with the knowledge to help my son. He has overcome most of his symptoms and is headed to college next year." Florida mom

Aramaic is a language or group of languages of the Semitic family, closely related to Hebrew. Biblical Aramaic, formerly called Chaldee, is the name given to the Aramaic occasionally found in the OT, viz: (1) two words in Gen. 31:47 used by Laban, whereas Jacob expressed the same idea in Hebrew; (2) one verse in Jer. 10:11 representing the testimony that the house of Israel was to make to the nations; (3) two portions in Ezra (4:8–6:18; 7:12–26), being principally correspondence between the enemies of the Jews and the Persian King Darius, and a letter from Artaxerxes to Ezra; (4) the central portion of Daniel (2:4b–7:28). The language is called "Aramaic" (improperly translated "Syriac" in the AV) in Ezr. 4:7 and Dnl. 2:4.
Aramaic words or forms called "Aramaisms" are often pointed out in other parts of the OT; and a number of Aramaic words, expressions, or names (such as marana tha [1 Cor. 16:22], ephphatha [Mk. 7:34], talitha cumi [Mk. 5:41], Tabitha [Acts 9:36, 40], Cephas [Jn. 1:42; 1 Cor. 1:12; etc.]), are recorded in the NT.
I. History of the Language
Aramaic takes its name from the Arameans, or the people of Aram. These strange people, whose origins are unknown, probably occupied the stage of history for a longer period of time than any others, yet never developed an empire or even a strong kingdom. They furnished a language that became the medium of international communication in the days of the Assyrian, Babylonian, and Persian empires, and faded only gradually in the Hellenistic period; yet they gave the worid no great literature (others who used their language did) nor indeed any other form of art. They borrowed an alphabet and gave it, in its many forms, to most of the literate world (including even the names for the Greek letters, in most cases); yet the alphabet was so poorly suited to their speech that scholars become confused by the orthography when discussing the phonetics and phonemics of Aramaic. And if any other paradox needs to be mentioned, the Arameans were often the enemies of the people of the OT — even though the Israelite was constantly reminded that "a wandering Aramean" was his father (Dt. 26:5).
Aram is a place name in Old Akkadian writings, from the middle of the 3rd millennium b.c., referring to the region of the Tigris N of Elam and E of Assyria. Some scholars think the name is non-Semitic. Tiglath-pileser I (ca 1100 b.c.) gave the name Aramean to the Semitic nomads in that area who were troubling his borders. Aram is also a personal name, found in the 3rd dynasty of Ur (ca 2000 b.c.) and at Mari (ca 1800 b.c.). In the Table of Nations, Aram is named as one of the sons of Shem along with Elam and Asshur (Gen. 10:22). At least two of the "sons" of Shem listed are not "Semitic," linguistically speaking, viz, Elam and Arpachshad.
The Aḫblamê, long identified with the Arameans, are mentioned in cuneiform texts from Mesopotamia from about the 26th cent b.c. on; they were principally troublesome marauders, nomads who moved with the flocks according to the season, knowing no boundaries, and constantly raiding the borderlands of civilized peoples. Along with them we should probably group similar nomads, such as the Suti, the Kaldi, and the Arami. They seem to have come from the Arabian Desert, and they spread into Mesopotamia, Egypt, and the western and northern edge of the Syrian Desert, better known as the Fertile Crescent. They doubtless spoke a common language or closely related dialects of a language, to which we might give the name Proto-Aramaic, although we have no literary remains to support this theory. There is, however, much evidence in written records of their existence (cf. Dupont-Sommer, Les Araméens). Their principal location was in upper Mesopotamia, within the great bend of the Euphrates known as Aram-Naharaim, "Aram of the Two Rivers" (the Euphrates and the Habor), or Paddanaram (Gen. 28:6). According to Israelite tradition, this was where Abram and his father and brother located after leaving Ur (Gen. 11:31); to this region Abraham sent his servant to get a wife for Isaac (Gen. 24:10), and Isaac in turn sent Jacob to get a wife (Gen. 28:2); and here the sons of Jacob, the heads of the twelve tribes, were born, excepting Benjamin (Gen. 29:31–30:24). It was following the departure of Jacob and his sons, when Laban pursued and overtook him, that the cairn of stones was named "Jegarshadutha" in Aramaic and "Galeed" in Canaanite (or Hebrew) (Gen. 31:47). We are led to the conclusion that Aramaic (in an early form) was spoken in Paddan-aram.
In the 12th cent b.c., groups of nomads are found along the Tigris and Euphrates from the Persian Gulf to Aram-Naharaim, and along the Levantine coast as far as north Arabia. In the 11th cent we find the beginnings of the Aramean states, actually small kingdoms consisting of a city or town and its surroundings, with such names as Aram-Zobah, Aram-Maacah, Aram-Dammesek, Aram-Rehob, as well as names not compounded with Aram, such as Geshur, Hamath, and Bit-Adini (Beth Eden). By the 10th, or at the latest the 9th cent, Aramaic inscriptions begin to appear, and the study of Aramaic is put on a basis no longer highly speculative.
Aramaic, however, was already a lingua franca of the merchants who traveled the highways from town to town. This hypothesis alone can explain the next development, when Aramaic became the official language of trade and diplomacy. Aramaic "dockets" began to be attached to Assyrian and Babylonian tablets. The records were kept in the languages of the kingdoms, but brief descriptions were attached in Aramaic — obviously because more persons could understand it. (For these texts, see L. Delaporte, Épigraphes Araméens [1912].) In some Assyrian tablets "Aramaic scribes" (dupšarrê armaya) are mentioned — certainly meaning that they could write Aramaic as well as (or instead of) Assyrian. Aramaic inscriptions appear on weights, seals, and vessels. The statue of Bar Rekub, found at Zenjirli (in the Kara Su Valley, now in Turkey), includes a scribe who has pen and ink: Akkadian tablets were pressed with a stylus, but Aramaic was usually written with ink. Similarly, a relief from Nimrûd shows two scribes recording the booty taken by Tiglathpileser III (ca 740 b.c.); one scribe has a stylus in the right hand and a tablet in the left, the other has a pen and a scroll of leather or papyrus.
Evidence of the use of Aramaic is found in the story of the siege of Jerusalem by Sennacherib, where Hezekiah's representatives plead with the Assyrian official to speak in Aramaic so the common people will not understand the plight (2 K. 18:26). Aramaic inscriptions are found in Egypt from the time of Esarhaddon of Assyria (681–669 b.c.). But it was in the time of the Persian empire that Aramaic flourished as the official language. Correspondence between the priests of a Jewish colony in Upper Egypt and the Persian governor in Jerusalem were written in Aramaic (the Aramaic papyri from Elephantine, 5th cent b.c.). An Aramaic copy of the famous Behistun inscription of Darius I was found in Egypt (Cowley, pp. 251–54). Even a Persian satrap sent his orders to an Egyptian boat builder in Aramaic (Cowley, no 26)! Aramaic inscriptions of various types, including some on metal objects and coins, have been found in many parts of the Middle East, from Greece to Pakistan, and from the Ural Mountains to Arabia. The biblical use of Aramaic for official correspondence, as found in Ezra, and for description of events in the palace concerning a Hebrew youth, as found in Daniel, is fully in accord with the custom of the times.
With the spread of Hellenism, including the deliberate attempt to extend the usage of the Greek language, Aramaic all but vanished. In three areas, however, it survived: in Arabia, among the Nabateans and the Palmyrenes, down into the Christian era; in Palestine, among Jews and later among the Melkite Christians, until the conquest by Islam; and in Mesopotamia, among Jews, Christians, and Mandeans, in some cases right to the present day. Jewish literature in Aramaic includes the Targums (translations of the OT into Aramaic), the Palestinian Talmud and Midrash, and the Gemara of the Babylonian Talmud — though these are not all in the same dialect. Christian literature includes the Old Syriac and Peshitta versions of the Bible, or portions of the Bible, and a wide variety of religious and historical literature. The term "Syriac" is usually applied to the dialect of Aramaic used by Christians in the East; and it spread eastward as far as India and even to China, and westward to Asia Minor, Egypt, and Arabia. Christian communities in Syria, Iraq, and Iran still speak subdialects of Syriac. The Mandeans of Iraq have a considerable religious literature in a dialect supposedly preserved from impurities that Jewish and Christian backgrounds have imposed on their respective bodies of literature. Lady Drower has recently published extensively on the Mandeans. Some liturgical use of Aramaic is found in the Jewish prayer book and also in Syriac Christian groups.
II. Description
Within the limits of this article we can give only the most salient features of the language. For further information, any of the recognized grammars may be consulted, particularly the standard work by Bauer and Leander. But until one has worked extensively in Aramaic dialects of several different periods, he should hesitate to speak categorically on these subjects.
A. PhoneticsIn the parent language (generally called "Proto-Semitic"), there were at least twenty-nine consonantal phonemes and three vocalic phonemes. The vowels were further distinguished by long and short forms. (A phoneme is a discretely meaningful basic unit of sound in a given language or dialect.) Through the centuries, various phonetic shifts have occurred, contributing to the development of dialects and languages within the family derived from the parent. Where written remains have accurately reflected the phonetic patterns we can trace some of these shifts — but we must always use caution when following out this line of research, for the written form of the language does not always accurately represent the phonetic form.
In Aramaic, the twenty-nine parent consonantal phonemes seem to have been reduced to twenty-two or twenty-three, while the vowels, particularly the short vowels, developed additional gradations.
It will be seen that the fricatives (such as th in then and th in thin) tended to drop out of both Aramaic and Hebrew; but whereas in Hebrew they became sibilants (z and s), in Aramaic they became stops (d and t). The shift of the long â to ô is a feature of the Canaanite dialects and is not found in Aramaic (nor, for that matter, in Ugaritic). However, in eastern Syriac dialects (and probably in the Hebrew of the Masoretes, who used the same sign for the qāmāṣ as for the qāmāṣ–ḥaṭûp̱), both long â and short a (under certain conditions) shifted to ô/ō. In certain Aramaic dialects, we should add, fricatives shifted to sibilants rather than to stops.
Both Aramaic and Hebrew developed vocalic gradations, so that in addition to the basic a, i, and u, we find e and o (in long and short quantitative forms). But whereas Hebrew tended to avoid short i (developing to e or ē), Aramaic often keeps the i-vowel. On the other hand, just prior to Masoretic times Hebrew attenuated short a in unaccented, closed syllables to short i, but Aramaic (except Biblical Aramaic) and Syriac kept the short a in such a position.
B. MorphologyLike all Semitic languages, Aramaic is chiefly triconsonantal in word-formation; in other words, a "root" consists of three consonants that carry a root meaning, while the various developments, whether as nouns or verbs, give precision to the general root meaning by vocalic alteration and/or the addition of prefixes, infixes, and suffixes.
1. NounsInstead of a prefixed definite article, as is found in Hebrew and Arabic, Aramaic uses the emphatic state (or determinate state), which in the singular may generally be described as a long -ā (-ā', sometimes -â) affixed to the noun or adjective, with vocalic alteration of the basic word depending upon the effect of the shift of accent occasioned by the addition of the afformative. Thus, méleḵ means "king," and malkâ' "the king." Nouns built on the CvCC pattern (C=root consonant, v=vowel), whether qatl, qitl, or qutl formations, undergo anaptyxis (vowel insertion), in Hebrew retaining the accent on the basic vowel, but in Aramaic tending to shift the accent to the anaptyctic (inserted) vowel thus forming a new pattern. This can be seen in the following illustrations: Arab 'alf, Heb 'élep̱, Aram 'aláp̱, "thousand"; Arab milḥ, Heb mélaḥ, Aram meláḥ, "salt"; Akk ŝurŝu, Heb šôreš, Aram šeráš, "root." In Biblical Aramaic, however, this is not consistent, and many "segholates" are found with the same development as in Hebrew (cf. méleḵ, mentioned above). It is possible that this resulted from Hebrew influence in the Hebrew Bible.
One other feature of noun morphology worthy of mention is the use of -în for the masculine plural absolute ending (contrast Heb -îm).
2. VerbsAs in Hebrew, the verb develops "stems" from the basic root, indicating repetition, causation, etc. The common stems are the G (Ground-stem, Heb qal, Aram peal), the D (Double-stem, Heb piel, Aram pael), and the H (Causative, Heb hiphil, Aram haphel). These are usually described, with great oversimplification, as the "simple," "intensive," and "causative" stems, respectively. The passive voice in a number of Semitic languages is formed by internal vocalic change, generally a u-type vowel after the first radical of the root or after the prefixed causative morpheme (thus, Heb pual, hophal). However, in some of the Semitic languages, including Aramaic, a prefixed middle or reflexive morpheme, hiṯ– or 'iṯ–, came into general use for the passive, more or less replacing the passive formed by vocalic change (or "internal passive"). Thus in Aramaic we find 'ethpeel used for the passive of the G-stem, 'ethpael for the passive of the D, and 'ettaphal for the passive of the H (or A) causative stem. Once again, however, Biblical Aramaic has not completely moved in the direction of other Aramaic dialects, and we find internal passives (the peil for G-passive, the pual for D-passive, often; and the huphal for H-passive always). The N-stem (Heb niphal, used as passive of G-stem) is not found in Biblical Aramaic. Instead of the H-stem (haphel), the A-stem ('aphel) is sometimes found in Biblical Aramaic; and instead of the hiṯ—morpheme the 'eṯ—morpheme is occasionally found. The Š-causative stem also occurs (active shaphel, passive hishtaphal).
In verbal inflection to show person, number, and aspect ("tense"), we may note the following characteristics of Biblical Aramaic. In the perfect, 3 f.s. -aṯ (Heb -ā), 2 m.s. -t (Heb -tā), 1 s. -ēṯ (Heb -tî), 2 m.pl –tûn (Heb -tem), 2 fpl -tēn (Heb -ten); in the imperfect, 2 f.s. t—în (Heb t—î), 3 m.pl y—ûn (Heb y—û), 3 f.pl y—ân (Heb t—nā), 2 m.pl t—ûn (Heb t—û), 2. f.pl t—ân (Heb t—nā). In the verb hewâ, "he was," the imperfect 3 m.s., 3 m.pl, and 3 f.pl forms have the preformative l- instead of the regular y- (lehewē, "he will be"). The G-stem infinitive in Aramaic has preformative m- (miḵtaḇ; cf. Heb kāṯôḇ, "to write"); and the G-passive participle has î as the second vowel (Aram keṯîḇ; cf. Heb kāṯûḇ), a formation often found in Biblical Hebrew but not recognized as a passive formation (cf. nāḇî', "one called, prophet," and nāśîˊ, "one lifted up, prince").
C. SyntaxSyntax is always a very complicated subject, and there is risk in picking out a few characteristics in any language, since personal style is often involved. We suggest the following noteworthy points in Biblical Aramaic. (1) The verb "to be" is used as an auxiliary verb to form compound tenses: the perfect with the participle to indicate continuous action in past time (hawā''āḇēḏ, "he was doing," Dnl. 6:11), and the imperfect with the participle to indicate continuous action in future time (miṯ'āreḇîn lehewôn, "they will be mixing," Dnl. 2:43). In fact, the participle comes to be used in Aramaic as a present tense, and stands alone as the verb in a clause, sometimes as a historical present (cf. 'ānēh we'āmar, "he answered and said," lit "answering and saying," Dnl. 2:5).
The direct object of the verb is often indicated by the prefixed preposition le–- (dānîyē'l bāriḵ le'ĕlāh šeemayyā', "Daniel blessed the God of Heaven," Dnl. 2:19).
The genitive relationship can be indicated, as in Hebrew, by the use of the construct state (two words joined into a single phrase with but one major accent). In Aramaic, however, there are two other means commonly used to express the genitive, the ruling element in the emphatic state followed by the particle dî, and the ruling element with an anticipatory suffix followed by dî. The following examples illustrate all three methods: millaṯ malkā', milleṯā dî malkāˊ, milleṯēh dî malkā', "the word of the king."
III. Date of Biblical Aramaic
The discussion of the date of Biblical Aramaic involves other issues over which there is deep disagreement among scholars. Thus, Montgomery assigns chs 1–6 of Daniel to the 3rd cent and chs 7–12 to 168–165 b.c. (ICC, p. 96), though he agrees with Wilson in taking issue with Driver over the late character of the Aramaic of Daniel (p. 20 n 5). On the other hand, E. J. Young writes, "Even if it could be conclusively demonstrated that the Aramaic of our Bibles was from the 3rd cent b. c., this would not preclude authorship by Daniel in the 6th century b. c." (Prophecy of Daniel [1949], p. 23).
Leaving aside the matter of interpretation as well as authorship, we believe we are able to place the Aramaic of the Bible in the 5th or 4th cent b.c. In the first place, there is little objective reason to attempt to remove either the Hebrew or the Aramaic of Ezra from the time of Ezra. The critical view does not attempt to date the Chronicler later than "between 350 and 250" (R. H. Pfeiffer in IDB, II, 219), and it is generally admitted that the Chronicler is the author of Ezra-Nehemiah. It is admitted by nearly all scholars that there is little if any difference between the Aramaic of Ezra and the Aramaic of Daniel (e.g., C. C. Torrey, Ezra Studies [1910], p. 162, says, "there is not a single particular, major or minor, in which one of them can be said with confidence to belong to a more advanced stage of development than its fellow"). Therefore, there is little if any linguistic reason to date the Aramaic later than the 4th century. If we press for the unity of authorship of Daniel and of Ezra, we can argue that the language of the Hebrew portions of these books is certainly not as late as that of Ecclesiastes. Rather, it is quite like that of Esther, which again puts it not later than the 4th century.
In the second place, the Aramaic of Daniel is not greatly different from that of the Elephantine papyri. The whole matter of dialectal differences enters into this discussion, and it is admittedly complex. Rowley, who is committed to a second-century date for Daniel, concludes that Biblical Aramaic is later than the papyri, "but as to how much later, we have scant means of judging" (p. 154). The Aramaic papyri from Elephantine can be absolutely dated, since they contain date formulas in the 5th century. It seems clear that the Aramaic of Daniel is much more closely related to that of the papyri than either to that of the Zenjirli inscriptions of the 8th cent b.c. on the one hand, or to that of the Nabatean inscriptions of the 1st cent b.c. on the other. We therefore would hesitate to argue that the Aramaic of the Bible is much earlier (or much later) than the Aramaic of the papyri.
When we take these two lines of evidence as our guides there seems to be little doubt that the Aramaic of the OT must be placed in the 5th or 4th cents, with a possible deviation of a half-century on either side, in other words, between 550 and 250 b.c., probably around 400 or the time of Ezra.
What bearing does this have on the authorship of Daniel? E. J. Young, who insists on the Danielic authorship of the entire work, claims that this is no problem (see quotation above). We are forced to recognize later editorial work, particularly in spelling and linguistic matters, for several portions of the Scripture, otherwise we cannot explain the great uniformity of Biblical Hebrew over a period of nearly a millennium (let us say, from Moses to Haggai). We should not be embarrassed, then, to admit editorial alterations to Daniel if it becomes necessary.
What bearing does this have on the critical position? The burden would seem to be on the critics to explain the nature of the Aramaic of the OT, including the great similarity of the Aramaic of Daniel to that of Ezra, the difference between the Aramaic of Daniel and that of 1QapGen, and similar matters, which they have generally ignored while insisting on a second-century date for Daniel. The critic must certainly be willing to subject his own theories to rigid critical methodology!
IV. Aramaic and the NT
It is commonly accepted that Jesus spoke Aramaic. As a matter of fact, one writer has made quite a reputation by his translation of the Bible from the "original Aramaic," which, he assures us in many popular presentations, is "the language Jesus spoke." Paul on occasion spoke "in the Hebrew dialect" (Acts 21:40; 22:2; 26:14), which according to most commentaries and lexicons is to be translated as "the Aramaic vernacular of Palestine." This view is so common that we need waste no space on presenting it; it is the contrary view that needs to be defended.
With the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in 1947ff it became obvious that Hebrew was indeed not a "dead" language in Palestine in the 1st cent a.d. In fact, it was used by the Qumrân sectarians not only for the commentaries and religious writings (e.g., 1QpHab, 1QM, 1QH), but even for 1QS; hence it was understood by the rank-and-file. Slowly this has opened up anew the question of the language of Jesus and Paul, in fact, the language of Palestine in the 1st century.
In a compelling article on "Hebrew in the Days of the Second Temple" (JBL, 79 [1960], 32–47), J. M. Grintz has offered several lines of evidence to show that Hebrew, rather than Aramaic, lay behind the Gospel of Matthew. A number of expressions in the Gospel can only be explained on the basis of Hebrew, where the Aramaic would not lend the same interpretation, such as the use of "Israel" (Aram regularly uses "Jews"), "gentiles" (Aram has no word like gôyîm), "Canaanite" (Aram has no such word), "flesh-and-blood" for "human being" (Aram uses "son of man"), "Queen of the south" for "Sheba" (in Heb but not in Aram yémen means "south"; cf. Yemen), etc. After a study of the references in Josephus, Grintz states: "… [Josephus] means precisely what he says: Hebrew and not Syrian [= Aramaic]" (p. 44). He finally concludes that "in the last days of the Second Temple, Hebrew was a living language. And it continued to be so seventy years later, though the destruction of Jerusalem wreaked terrible havoc among the speakers of Hebrew. The final blow to Hebrew as a spoken language was a direct outcome of the disastrous wars of 132–35 C.E." (p. 47).
This does not mean that Aramaic was not used in Palestine. There is positive evidence in the NT in the form of Aramaic words. But perhaps we should look upon these as the uncommon, unusual words. Possibly the exact words of Jesus were remembered at certain times just because He uttered Aramaic on those occasions. Possibly "in the Hebrew dialect" is noted with reference to Paul on occasion because he more often spoke in Aramaic or even in Greek. The entire subject needs very careful restudy, and theories of Aramaic backgrounds to the Gospels, etc., must not be allowed to distort this study.

Colombian president renowned for his oratory and negotiating skills
Julio César Turbay Ayala was President of Colombia at a time - 1978-82 - when guerrilla warfare and drug-trafficking had come to dominate the political life of a country that prided itself on its long-established democratic institutions and traditions. His critics accused him of an over-indulgent attitude towards the so-called "emerging class" of nouveaux riches from the Caribbean coastal region, where the marijuana that fuelled Colombia's first drug boom was cultivated, packed and shipped to the United States. Nevertheless, as an ex-president of vast experience, he remained a respected and influential figure in Colombian politics until his death.
Turbay was probably best known abroad for his role in negotiating a peaceful conclusion to a two-month siege of the Dominican Republic's embassy in Bogotá, after an urban guerrilla group, M-19, had taken 16 foreign diplomats and a number of other guests hostage during a party in February 1980. The guerrillas were eventually allowed to fly to Cuba with a million dollars in their pockets; their original demands for the release of jailed comrades, and a ransom of $50m for the hostages, were turned down. After the hostage-takers were finally pardoned in 1990, their leader, Rosemberg Pabón, praised Turbay for his calm and restrained handling of the crisis.
There was a less happy outcome when Turbay's own daughter, Diana, a journalist, was kidnapped on the orders of a drug boss, Pablo Escobar, in August 1990: she was killed in a bungled rescue attempt by the army five months later.
Turbay used draconian measures to combat M-19 and Colombia's other guerrilla armies, who constantly threatened the country's stability. Within weeks of taking office as President in 1978, he introduced a Security Statute giving sweeping powers to the security forces to combat armed insurgencies, kidnappings, extortion and the other endemic ills of Colombia's embattled democracy. The statute's most controversial clause gave military tribunals the power to try civilians.
Julio César Turbay was a dominant figure in the Liberal party, one of Colombia's two traditional political organisations, for more than 60 years. He was renowned for his negotiating skills, which helped to hold the party together through countless vicissitudes. But of late he had become an enthusiastic supporter of President Alvaro Uribe, a former Liberal who broke with the party to stand as an independent candidate in the 2002 elections. Turbay also backed Uribe's campaign to amend the constitution so that he might stand for re-election next year, and he was one of the founders of Patria Nueva (New Country), a movement formed by members of both traditional parties as an electoral vehicle for Uribe. This caused much bitterness and recrimination in Liberal circles, as Turbay had always been against the principle of immediate presidential re-election: the Colombian constitution, as it stands, allows a President to stand for a second four-year term only after one term as elapsed.
Julio César Turbay was born in Bogotá in 1916, into a Lebanese immigrant family. Unusually for a Colombian establishment politician, he did not attend university. He learnt his politics from the grassroots, and his career began young: at the age of 21 he was already mayor of Girardot, a town on the great Magdalena river, west of the capital. From 1943 to 1949 he was a Liberal member of the lower house of Congress. Elected to the party's national executive in 1953, he was minister of mines in 1957-58, during a short-lived military junta. He then served in the so-called National Front, when the leaders of the two traditional parties, Liberals and Conservatives, agreed to alternate in power for 16 years, from 1958, to allow the country to convalesce from a decade of communal violence and military rule. Turbay was first elected to the Senate in 1962, and was re-elected four times.
Thanks to his combination of crowd-pleasing oratory and a gift for striking deals in smoke-filled rooms, Turbay steadily climbed the greasy pole of Liberal politics, securing the presidency of the Senate in 1976 and finally the party's presidential nomination two years later. Before that he had served spells as ambassador in London and Washington, two more indispensable stops along the way to Colombian political glory. His last public appointment was as ambassador to the Vatican, from 1995 to 1998.
By the time he won the Liberal nomination in 1978, the cosy National Front arrangement had ended, and he had to face a Conservative opponent, Belisario Betancur, who enjoyed the support of the growing number of political independents. But he won convincingly. Before that, to win the Liberal nomination, he had to defeat a former President, Carlos Lleras Restrepo, whose campaign focused on denouncing the wheeler-dealing style of politics personified by Turbay.
A former Conservative president of Colombia, Andrés Pastrana, put it more charitably: "Turbay lived and breathed politics 24 hours a day."

IER News & blogs
Job quality research for the CIPD
In 2017, as part of its programme of work promoting better working lives, the Chartered Institute for Personnel and Development (CIPD) commissioned IER to produce two reports on job quality. The first report focused on Understanding and Measuring Job Quality; the second on Indicators of Job Quality. The IER team was led by Professor Chris Warhurst and comprised Sally Wright, Dr Clare Lyonette and, for the second report, Dr Sudipa Sarkar. Both reports were published by the CIPD. The research was used by the CIPD in its consultation submission to the 2017 UK Government's Taylor Review of Modern Working Practices. The research also helped inform the development of a new UK Working Lives survey for the CIPD. Subsequent to the completion of the research, Dr Sarkar was seconded to the CIPD to assist with the development of the new survey, which was administered by YouGov over winter 2017-18.
IER helping prepare the next European Company Survey
Professor Chris Warhurst and Dr Daria Luchinskaya of IER were invited to Brussels to present options for including a new section on skill utilisation in the upcoming 4th European Company Survey (ECS). The meeting, jointly organised by Cedefop and Eurofound, was part of the preparation for the ECS. The survey, due to be administrated over 2018-2019, covers all EU Member States plus EU Candidate Countries and examines management-employee relations and practices.
Upcoming seminar: Academic mobility and employability
Employability gain is often connected to international experiences, however, empirical findings are sparse. The Academic Mobilities and Immobilities Network (AMIN) and IER are organising a research seminar to explore research on academic mobility on 23 May. There will be presentations from Dr Toni Wright (Newham College), Eluned Jones (University of Birmingham) and Gaby Atfield (IER) focusing on: do students enrolled in UK Higher Education Institutions gain international experiences by studying or working in a different country, or by taking part in international events on the UK campus?; and do international students enhance their employability by studying in a UK higher education institution?

Investing in adult education: health and well-being benefits
The APPG for Adult Education commissioned the Warwick Institute for Employment Research in 2016 to conduct research into the needs of adult learners. This work was supported by the Institutes for Adult Learning (IALs). The nine Specialist Designated Institutions (SDIs), including City Lit, Morley College, Hillcroft College, Northern College, Ruskin College, Working Men's College, Mary Ward Centre, Fircroft College and the Workers' Educational Association (WEA),– each has its own identity, mission and distinctive approach, which adds to the rich diversity of adult education.
Our primary focus was on adult education, and on adults returning to learn. Learning can occur in education or training institutions (offline or online), the workplace (on or off the job), the family, or cultural and especially, community settings. Findings from this in-depth study highlighted local and newly Combined Authorities will be accountable for the allocation of funds with Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs) in setting the agenda and identifying priorities within local communities. It is, therefore, critical that the contribution of adult education, including its contribution to improving health and well-being (which are pre-requisites for progression into and within employment), must not be lost or forgotten within current and any new devolution arrangements.
It is clear that most providers of adult education have invested in reaching out to people who are disadvantaged one way or the other. Many of whom would not otherwise know about adult education and what it could do for people in their circumstances. Adult education providers have developed the expertise, teaching skills and resources to deliver non-qualification provision and/or bite-sized units that successfully engage these adults in learning again, offering a stepping stone to success. Therefore, any policy or practical interventions need to reflect this and provide flexibility. Post-devolution, local Skills Commissioners will be required to make investment decisions - which is why their role is so central to the sustainability of adult education now and in the future.
IER''s formal 'Call for Evidence' in 2017 has a distinctive focus on adult education, health and well-being. The main purpose is to gather the views of key stakeholders, partners and providers on the contribution of adult education to health and wellbeing outcomes. We have deliberately not attempted to define the parameters of the Call For Evidence too tightly as we want respondents to explore many different aspects of health and wellbeing. We hope to hear from those interested in any aspect of physical or mental health, including health and wellbeing in the context of age, disability, ethnicity, gender and location. For further information contact: Dr Deirdre Hughes OBE, deirdre dot hughes at warwick dot ac dot uk.
Brexit briefings on employment
As part of the Warwick's faculty of social sciences CREW network, IER, the Law School and the Industrial Relations Research Unit have an award from the Higher Education Innovation Fund to produce a series of Brexit Briefings on Employment. The four thematic briefings will focus on job loss and job creation; training for the unemployed; employment rights and regulation; migration and skills. Each will present key research evidence and make recommendations for the development of new policy as the UK exits the EU. Each will also have a public launch over May-July this year.

Blossoming Cultures: Flowers as a Tapestry of Traditions
Cherry Blossoms in Japan: The Dance of Nature and Culture
Japan's cherry blossoms, or sakura, are a symbol of national pride. The ephemeral beauty of these delicate flowers captures the philosophy of wabi-sabi, a worldview centered on the acceptance of impermanence. Hanami festivals celebrate this fleeting beauty with picnics under cherry blossom trees, linking the dance of nature with cultural joy and community connection.

They're more than decorations; they're symbols of purity and auspiciousness that unify communities in a vivid display of cultural identity. A walk through India's bustling flower markets reveals the depth of meaning these humble blossoms carry.
From Garden Routes to Floral Highways: Crafting Your Floral Expedition
A Floral Odyssey Down South: Exploring the Garden Route, South Africa
South Africa's Garden Route, stretching over 200 kilometers along the country's southeastern coast, is an unspoiled treasure where wildflowers burst into life against a backdrop of mountains and sea. The rich diversity of flora, including fynbos, proteas, and countless other species, creates a botanical wonderland that has mesmerized botanists and tourists alike.
The landscape is dotted with indigenous forests, tranquil lakes, golden beaches, and rugged cliffs, all intertwined with a colorful blanket of blooms. Fynbos, a distinctive type of vegetation found only in the Cape Floral Kingdom, is particularly fascinating with over 9,000 species, many of which are found nowhere else on Earth.
Visitors can embark on guided tours to explore this unique biodiversity. From walking amidst the delicate beauty of proteas, South Africa's national flower, to discovering the intricate relationships between the plants, birds, and insects, the Garden Route offers a multifaceted experience that goes beyond mere sightseeing.
Japan to Paris: Navigating Flower Festivals Worldwide
Flower festivals around the world offer more than just a visual feast; they are a celebration of cultural heritage, agricultural excellence, and artistic expression. Whether strolling through Japan's enchanting wisteria tunnels or marveling at the grandeur of the Paris International Agricultural Show, a carefully planned flower-focused journey can create a lifelong memory.
In Japan, the flowering wisteria vines, with their cascading clusters of pale violet blossoms, have inspired poets and artists for centuries. The Ashikaga Flower Park in Tochigi Prefecture hosts one of the most famous wisteria festivals, where tunnels and trellises adorned with these graceful flowers transport visitors to a fairy-tale world. Alongside cherry blossoms and other seasonal blooms, wisteria holds a special place in Japanese culture, symbolizing love, grace, and endurance.
In Paris, the International Agricultural Show is not just a trade fair but a celebration of agricultural prowess and innovation. With elaborate displays of flowers from all corners of France and beyond, the show offers a comprehensive look at the latest trends in floriculture. Workshops, competitions, and exhibitions allow enthusiasts to delve deep into the world of flowers, learning about cultivation techniques, new species, and the role of flowers in sustainable agriculture.

The world's floral wonders offer us more than just a visual delight; they connect us to the essence of a place, its history, and its people. So, whether you're strolling through Dutch tulip fields or marveling at India's marigold-strewn celebrations, remember that the beauty of these blooms transcends their petals – they're ambassadors of the world's diverse and interconnected tapestry. Let this blooming adventure inspire your next journey, for every flower has a story to tell, and a world to reveal.

The Greenlining Institute Announces Second Cohort to Join Greenlining the Block, A Multi-Million Dollar Initiative Investing in BIPOC-led Community Solutions to Climate Change
Media Contact
Danielle Bell
firstname.lastname@example.com email@example.com two cohort includes 16 organizations across Michigan, North Carolina, California, and Colorado
Contact: Danielle Bell, Senior Program Manager for Media Relations, firstname.lastname@example.com
Oakland, California — Today, The Greenlining Institute announced the second cohort of community-based organizations selected to participate in Greenlining the Block, a multi-year initiative to advance climate justice neighborhood projects and build power in communities of color. The initiative aims to leverage federal investments through the Justice40 initiative, Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and the Inflation Reduction Act, as well as statewide and local investments to ensure benefits reach communities of color that continue to feel the impacts of decades of inequities in infrastructure funding as the climate crisis worsens.
Investing in Community Leadership
For thirty years, The Greenlining Institute has advanced racial equity through policy and issue advocacy while also investing in community-driven leadership and ownership of solutions that support cooperative, sustainable, participatory, fair and healthy communities. Greenlining the Block advances the model Greenlining established through California's Transformative Climate Communities program, which has catalyzed over $350 million in investments in communities across California.
"Through Greenlining the Block, we're learning how policies are implemented in the field, and how decisions made at the highest levels impact the daily lives of millions of people. Our goal is to make sure the impact of those policies matches the intent, and that communities receive the resources and support they need to build thriving, resilient neighborhoods," said Debra Gore-Mann, President & CEO at The Greenlining Institute.
"While climate action at the global and national levels is essential, funding climate projects at the grassroots allows communities to tap into the unique needs, resources, and assets of the people they serve. We know from this work that undoing legacies of harm in communities of color requires holistic solutions that prioritize community leadership and ownership," said Alvaro Sanchez, Vice President of Policy at Greenlining.
Second Round of Community-Based Partners
Greenlining will provide direct capacity building annual grants, support tailored capacity building and other technical assistance, and facilitate peer-to-peer learning through a Community of Practice. For the second round of the Greenlining the Block initiative, Greenlining welcomes 16 organizations across four states: Michigan, North Carolina, California, and Colorado: Community Collaboration on Climate Change (C4), CleanAIRE North Carolina, The Globeville, Elyria-Swansea Coalition Organizing for Health and Housing Justice (GES Coalition), Southwest Detroit Environmental Vision, East Oakland Neighborhoods Initiative, Homies Empowerment, Mycelium Youth Network, Ninth Root, Black Urban Farmers Association, Restore the Delta, Community Partners 4 Innovation, Tongva Taraxat Paxaavxa, City Heights CDC, Mid City CAN, Project New Village, and United Taxi Workers of San Diego.
These partners are advancing a unique slate of comprehensive climate justice projects including:
- Clean mobility options and transportation justice
- Multi-purpose community and climate resilience hubs
- Multi-benefit environmental restoration and stormwater capture
- Anti-displacement and affordable and sustainable housing
Partner Spotlights
Tongva Taraxat Paxaavxa, Altadena, CA
"We are transforming Huhuunga, place of the bears, the first site to be in Tongva stewardship since colonization to have space for Native plants, culture, and community. We can barely or no longer afford to live on our ancestral homelands and so many of our people have been forced out. We hope to use this grant and learning opportunity with Greenlining the Block to increase sovereignty and provide housing on our homelands to bring our family home to be in community together again," said Samantha Morales Johnson, Tongva Land Return Coordinator.
Homies Empowerment, East Oakland, CA
"As a Deep East Oakland-based grassroots organization who is building on the legacy of struggle, the importance of building a community-led resilience hub goes without saying. Our partnership with the Greenlining Institute will be invaluable as the work of transforming our environment for the people by the people continues" said Jazmín Y. Preciado-Cruz, Esq., Caretaker of Community Relations.
Community Collaboration on Climate Change (C4), Grand Rapids, MI
"Empowering our community through sustainable mobility is not just a ride towards cleaner air and reduced carbon emissions; it's a journey towards equity, justice, and shared prosperity. Our community-centered EV ride share program will be a testament to our commitment, steering us away from environmental degradation while steering us closer to a future where everyone has access to clean transportation solutions. By putting the power of electric vehicles in the hands of the many, not the few, we drive towards a greener tomorrow while ensuring that no one is left behind on this transformative path," said Kareem Scales, C4 Co-Chair.

Pancake Day, or Shrove Tuesday, is the traditional feast day before the start of Lent on Ash Wednesday. Lent – the 40 days leading up to Easter – was traditionally a time of fasting and on Shrove Tuesday, Anglo-Saxon Christians went to confession and were "shriven" (absolved from their sins). A bell would be rung to call people to confession. This came to be called the "Pancake Bell" and is still rung today.
Shrove Tuesday always falls 47 days before Easter Sunday, so the date varies from year to year and falls between February 3 and March 9. In 2016 Shrove Tuesday will fall on the 9th February.
Shrove Tuesday was the last opportunity to use up eggs and fats before embarking on the Lenten fast and pancakes are the perfect way of using up these ingredients.

This looks like your making, Cherie – I bet it was deleicious
I can't remember the last time I had a pancake; somehow, the old ways have slipped. That one looks fabulous, CP – save me a piece….Oh! Too late!
I love pancakes and despite what the Bretons say,
the best way to serve them is with freshly squeezed
lemon and caster sugar, then rolled up, then sliced..
delicious ,
Best regards,
Not really keen on pancakes these days but when younger they always had to be with sugar and squeezed fresh lemon .
