I was a recent college graduate and felt directionless in my career. I had attempted career training programs, but nothing seemed to align with my needs, giving me skills and mentorship I could use. When my cousin told me about a career roundtable hosted by Young Invincibles here in Chicago, I was immediately interested. I had been searching for a career that would both pay a living wage and offer opportunities for growth, unlike the dead-end odd jobs that I had landed over the years. At the roundtable, I learned about a new path that could lead to my goals: apprenticeships. The more that I learned about these programs that pay participants as they receive training and are connected with mentors, the more I felt that apprenticeships could fill a career gap that many young people like myself face. This is particularly important in our home state of Illinois where youth unemployment (age 16-24) is 14.2 percent, the second highest rate in the country. I am excited about the apprenticeship programs launching this summer across the state and hope to see more opportunities like this in my communities. Following a career you love shouldn't feel like a lottery, and I encourage Gov. Rauner and the IIlinois legislature to create more apprenticeship opportunities for young people like myself.
When I graduated with my associates degree, I tried joining a career advancement program in hopes of gaining networks and a mentor to help me navigate the workplace, but I ended up feeling even more insecure. My program focused solely on skill-building for electricians and was highly task-based. I felt shepherded from task to task instead of mentored to learn the skills I needed to succeed. I wasn't encouraged to become independent and unlike with an apprenticeship, I didn't have a mentor to work with, learn from, and view as a model for a career. I won't become successful through learning basic skills alone. I also need to learn the skills that employers demand; a mentor who is invested in my success and who shares my interests can facilitate this growth. I don't want to continue jumping from low-wage job to low-wage job, but rather want direction from someone who will help me learn first hand the skills I need for a career. I'm interested to learn more about my options for apprenticeships and how they match up with jobs I want to explore in software engineering or music production.
Apprenticeships provide the foundational tools and support that many young adults in my community are missing. While attending college is one route to a successful career, many college graduates and young Illinoisans who didn't attend school enter the workforce underprepared. I'm hopeful to see that Governor Rauner has invested in expanding apprenticeship programs because the same formula for success is not working for some communities, and increasing more opportunities outside of traditional degree programs will get more young adults in our community into the workforce and on a path to success. This summer, Illinois is launching apprenticeship pilot programs across the state, creating learning opportunities in healthcare, information and technology, manufacturing, and more. These programs are a pathway out of poverty for many young Illinoisans. Apprenticeships are tool for making sure that it doesn't always matter how you start your career journey, creating the possibility to finish strong based on the opportunities we take, and the opportunities we demand for ourselves.

Arete Summer Bridge Program Visit
On Wednesday, I visited the Arete Summer Bridge Program at The Laboratory School of Finance & Technology at 360 E 145th St, Bronx, NY 10454. This two hour long JHP program session consisted of a group of 10 seventh grade students led by teaching artists Obed and Teanna. The class started with their sharing their field trip to Barnes & Noble earlier on in the day followed by a game of two truths and a lie. In the second hour, the students went to the computer lab to look at the photos they had taken. Each student sat with Obed as he uploaded the photos from their memory card onto Google Drive. Meanwhile, students looked at their own photos on their computers and critiqued their work with a partner. They also looked at photos by street photographer Vivian Maier. Teanna went around speaking to students, making sure they had the photos they needed for their final project, which was to choose something they love about themselves and take a self portrait that reflects that characteristic.

What Do We Know about Shakespeare's Life?
Secured facts about Shakespeare's life are meager for today's standards. Consequently, there is a considerable number of scarcly provable theories and stories about Shakespeare. It has to be noted, however, that Shakespeare's vita is well documented for a man of his social standard and considering the times he lived in. Reproductions of almost all relevant contemporary sources about Shakespeare can be found in Samuel Schoenbaum's William Shakespeare: A Compact Documentary Life (2nd ed., 1987).
William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in April 1564. He was the son of John Shakespeare, a successful glover from Snitterfield, and of Mary Arden, a daughter of the gentry. Shakespeare probably attended the grammar school in central Stratford but never studied at a university. At the age of eighteen (1582) he married Anne Hathaway, who was already 26. There seems to have been some haste in arranging the ceremony, since Anne was presumably 3 months pregnant. The two had three children together, two daugherts and a son.
After his marriage, Shakespeare left very few traces in the historical record until he appeared in London's theatrical scene. The late 1580s are known as Shakespeare's "lost years". There are legends surrounding this time of his life but no evidence has survived to show exactly where he was or when and why he left Stratford for London.
Shakespeare reappears in London in the early 1590's, by then a member of the "Lord Strange's Men", later the "Lord Chamberlain's Men" (after the accession of James I. to the throne they renamed themselves "The King's Men"). Most likely Shakespeare lived in London during his time as an active playwright, separated from his family.
Shakespeare was a very successful playwrigth, actor and part-owner of his playing company. Enterprising as he was, he gained a small fortune that allowed him to buy one of the grandest houses in Stratford only in 1597.
He only seems to have retired to Straford after his last two plays were written in 1613. He died on April 23, 1616, at the age of 52. He was married to Anne Hathaway until his death and was survived by his two daughters, Susanna and Judith.
Some of Shakespeare's plays first appeared in print as a series of quartos. However most of his works remained unpublished until 1623 when the posthumous First Folio was published by two actors who had been in Shakespeare's company: John Heminges and Henry Condell.

John 10:1-10
Key Verse 10:9
I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out, and find pasture.
First, "The man who enters by the gate is the shepherd of his sheep" (1-6). Today's passage is the continuation of Jesus' dialogue with the Pharisees, after healing the man born blind. Look at verses 1 and 2. Jesus says, "I tell you the truth, the man who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. The man who enters by the gate is the shepherd of his sheep." Shepherds, thieves and robbers are all interested in sheep, but for different reasons. Spiritual leaders are the ones who deal with God's flock; they have religious titles, and they are teachers and leaders. But here, Jesus divides them into two categories – shepherds, and thieves or robbers. Their difference is found in the manner they approach the sheep pen. Early in the morning, the shepherd comes to the sheep pen confidently, saying to the watchman, "Good morning! Thank you for taking care of my sheep all night long." Nothing to hide or worry about. On the contrary, thieves and robbers cannot come to the sheep pen in this way. Instead, they climb in by some other way, very secretly. When you see anyone who does not come to the church by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, you can be rest assured that he is a thief or a robber. Call 911 immediately.
In approaching the former blind man, Jesus did not use any secretive way; he didn't try to purchase his heart by giving him what he wanted. Even if this man was blind from birth, Jesus challenged him to do the work of God even in that situation. Then, Jesus spit on the ground and made some mud, and put it on his eyes. It was really humiliating, and very questionable in the matter of hygiene. But Jesus did not explain anything to him. Instead, Jesus told him, "Go to the pool of Siloam and wash." In this way, Jesus challenged him not to be controlled by human thinking or sense of humiliation, but obey his word by faith. Then, later, when this man lost everything in the world because of his struggle to keep his grace, Jesus challenged him, saying, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?" With this, he helped the man worship him, and make real dedication to him. Jesus' way of approaching and helping sheep was not secretive, or complicated, but simple and clear to the point – Do the work of God in all circumstances, remain faithful to God's grace at any cost, and make full commitment to Jesus Christ. That's exactly what the Bible is talking about - our supreme duty to reveal the glory of God as God's creatures, and our absolute loyalty and commitment to God; that's what we humans are supposed to do - that is the truth. And that is the way for us to enjoy true happiness and fulfillment in God. In trying to influence and lead the man, Jesus had nothing to hide, but confidently taught him the truth; he was like a shepherd who, in the morning, enters the sheep pen by the gate, saying to the watchman, "Good morning! How are you doing?" On the contrary, the Pharisees' way of approaching the man was very secretive and twisted, with a lot of interrogation, threatening, and lies. Why? It was because they wanted to fulfill their own desires and plans – like thieves and robbers they were self-seeking, instead of serving God or taking care of God's flock.When we hold onto the truth – the teachings of the Bible, we have nothing to hide or be afraid of; instead, we can confidently teach them to dedicate themselves to God completely and live for the glory of God; we challenge them freely to repent of their self-seeking desires, humanistic views and doubts and mistrust so that they can obey God's will upon their life.
Look at verse 3. "The watchman opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out." Every morning, many people took their sheep to green pastures usually outside the city, watched over them while they grazed on the fresh grass all day long and in the evening they came back home. Then, they brought their sheep to a public sheep pen prepared for all the sheep in the town, and a watchman took care of the sheep during night, while all the shepherds enjoyed a good night's sleep at their homes. Then, early in the morning, all the shepherds came to the sheep pen and started their routine shepherding journey.
Now early in the morning, when a shepherd comes to the sheep pen to gather his sheep, there is one problem. There are many sheep in the sheep pen. If ten shepherds, who owned 100 sheep each, brought their sheep to the sheep pen, all 1,000 of their sheep would be in the sheep pen. How would he be able to find the 100 sheep that belong to him amidst so many other sheep? If he had to go through 1,000 sheep one by one to find his own, it would be a very difficult task. In our eyes, all sheep just look the same! Yet, there is a way. He calls his own sheep by name, and his sheep listen to his voice. When he calls out the name, "Lucky," among 1,000 sheep, only one sheep responds and comes to him. Then, he calls, "Mooshy,"then another sheep from the 1,000 responds joyfully, "Baaaaeee!" and comes out to him. This way, he gathers all his sheep. This shows that the shepherd and sheep relationship is very personal, knowing each other. It is really true that the shepherd knows his sheep and his sheep know him.
Of course, when the sheep were young, they didn't know their shepherd; they didn't know their names either; simply, they didn't recognize their shepherd's voice that even if he called them by name, they did not respond; they were just busy to do whatever they wanted. But overtime, as the shepherd and the sheep went through many things together, they came to realize that the shepherd was taking care of them and protecting them; they came to realize that the shepherd loved them and even would do anything for them; they finally came to trust him; then, whenever their shepherd was near them, they felt so secure and confident; when the shepherd called his sheep, "Mooshy," Mooshy was so happy at his voice that it jumped up among all the sheep, saying happily, "Baaaeeeee" and came out so confidently and proudly. They were happy and proud to be recognized as the sheep of their shepherd who loved them and took care of them.
This shepherd and sheep relationship vividly shows our relationship with God. God wants to bless us and make us happy. But like newly born little sheep, how many times have we naively ignored his voice for our own pleasures and desires in the world, only to bring harms on ourselves? But our Shepherd did not give up on us. He called us by name again and again - sometimes, by touching us through Christian radio station, sometimes through simple Bible passages, and sometimes, by sending his servants to us until we recognize his person in our life. Because of our shepherd's unfailing love and struggle for us, finally we have come to develop an ear to hear his voice; finally, we come to respond to his voice, saying, "Baaaaaaae!" How happy our shepherd must be when we finally respond to his voice, saying, "Yes, Lord, I am here. Your grace has brought me back to you." Finally, we begin to respond to his voice dancing joyfully. Jesus is our shepherd and we are his sheep. We respond to his calling. When he says, "Roberto," he responds, "Baaaaaeeee!" When he calls, "Johnny," he responds, "Baaaeeee! Yahoo!" Now whatever he says to us, we respond, saying, "Yes, Sir!" "Here I am! Send me." "I will do it." We belong to him and he belongs to us.
Now we take care of God's flock. We are God's hands and feet. Do they recognize their shepherd's voice? Do they respond at their names? Often, they are really deaf that we feel like talking to the wall. But just as our shepherd did for us, we wrestle with them continually, teaching them the Bible diligently, sometimes, challenging and rebuking them, and sometimes, praying for them with tears. Then, one day, suddenly they begin to respond to God's words, repenting and sincerely seeking God's will upon their life, and even obeying our directions wholeheartedly. When they recognize their names as God's sheep, we are overjoyed. This is how God's work goes on our campuses.
Look at verse 4. Let's read this verse together:
When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.
Now once the shepherd has brought out his own sheep, he starts his shepherd's journey for the sheep. The destination? The green pasture he had already explored. Then, how does he lead them to the green pasture? Verse 4 says, "He goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice." "He goes on ahead of them." In order to tend pigs, you need to drive them from behind with a stick, but not so with the sheep. Sheep are so near-sighted that simply, to them, everything is blurry, and they are so fearful that they dare not go ahead by themselves even if they are pushed from behind. Instead, the shepherd goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow their shepherd.
This is how Jesus, our chief shepherd has led us so far. Instead of dictating us to do this and that, he went ahead of us so that we can follow his example. Even after skipping meals for forty days, he still refused to use his time, energy and power to make bread and secure his life; instead, he was still determined to meditate on the word of God and live according to God's command, saying, "Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord." (Lk 4:4) When Satan tempted him to pursue worldly glory and riches, Jesus said to him, "It is written: Worship the Lord your God and serve him only." (Lk 4:8) At Gethemane, when he felt so troubled because of the burden of dying on the cross, he prayed, "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will but yours be done." Now Jesus commands us to follow him; he also shows us how we can follow him, saying, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me." If sheep does whatever it wants to do and lives however way it desires, surely it will end up eating poisonous ivy and die, or it will surely go astray only to be destroyed by ferocious wolves. But when we follow our shepherd who goes ahead of us, surely he will lead us to green pasture and we will be satisfied.
Look at verse 5. Let's read this verse together:
But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger's voice.
To the sheep, it is a matter of life and death to recognize their shepherd's voice and follow him. If they make any mistake in this matter and follow a stranger's voice thinking that it was their shepherd's voice, then, the next day, they will be found at Food For Less supermarket - $3.99/lb. These animal sheep neither respond to the stranger's voice nor follow him. Instead, they run away from him. They never make a mistake in this matter. But amazingly, there are so many human sheep that make a mistake in this matter, and follow a stranger thinking that it was their shepherd's voice only to be miserable and destroyed. There is a voice from our flesh, promising an easy-going, pleasure-seeking and comfortable life; it appeals to our small citizen's desire. There is also a voice that comes from the world, promising great success, luxury and popularity. There is also a voice from our enemy Satan that plants doubt and mistrust in God and in God's people. Even demons speak to you to go for sinful things. All these strangers imitate our shepherd's voice promising good-sounding things we desire such as a promising future with great sense of security, convenience, satisfaction and fulfillment. Don't be deceived. How can we distinguish our shepherd's voice from the stranger's voice? Our shepherd's voice comes with the message that is hard, but right, requiring us of our own self-denial, cross-taking, real submission and dedication to God's will, losing our life for God, even death on the cross. But the stranger's voice comes with the promises of easy-going, pleasant, and comfortable life, fulfilling our own dreams and desires, family-centered, valuing our families more than things of God. Don't be deceived by those enemies. Respond to your shepherd's voice, but run away from the stranger's voice.
Second, "Whoever enters through me will be saved"(6-10). The Pharisees did not realize that Jesus was talking about them – that they were not shepherds for the sheep, the former blind man, but thieves and robbers. That's why he did not listen to them, even though they said, "Give glory to God." But instead, he listened to Jesus and followed him no matter what he said, because Jesus was his shepherd. They just understood that Jesus was talking about shepherding. SoJesus gave them another figure of speech to help them understand who he was and who they were. Look at verses 7 and 8. Let's read this verse together:
7Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them."
This second figure of speech of Jesus is based on shepherding in the mountains or in the field where the shepherd watches over the sheep grazing on the grass. Under their shepherd's care, sheep enjoy good time, and everything is peaceful. Yet, the problem is that from time to time, the shepherd needs some rest as well. He too may feel tired or sleepy in such a peaceful looking environment. But if he sleeps while the sheep graze in the open field, something undesirable or terrible may happen, such as: wolves attacking the sheep, or the thieves stealing some of the sheep. What did they do to solve this dilemma? The townspeople had already made a sheep pen in the open field so that when the shepherd was sleepy or tired in watching over the sheep, he could simply bring them into the sheep pen, and then freely rest. This sheep pen had fence around it, but uniquely, it did not have a door, but only an opening. The shepherd stands there at the opening and brings his sheep in, and after that, he puts his sleeping bag right at that spot, at the opening, and he sleeps. So, then, the shepherd himself becomes the gate for the sheep. In the open field, no one else, but the shepherd can become the gate for the sheep. Jesus says that he is the gate for the sheep indicating that only he is the shepherd. Then, what about other religious leaders? They were thieves and robbers.
In verse 9, Jesus describes the blessed life of people who come to his sheep pen through him, the gate. Let's read verse 9 together:
9I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out, and find pasture.
Jesus promises three blessings - "will be saved," "will come in and go out," and "find pasture." Those who enter through him will be saved. Saved from what? From all dangers and harms. Outside the sheep pen, there are many predators - ferocious wolves, bears and lions; not only so, there are also thieves and robbers. Outside the sheep pen, all the sheep's ultimate struggle is survival. But the sheep inside the sheep pen are secured and protected; they have no concern about the predators, because their shepherd is at the gate. This complete sense of security and protection is what all people want to have. They are so harassed by the sense of insecurity; the fear of future security is one main factor that drives them to study and work hard. Above all, the fear of death is what makes them depressed and suffer from insomnia. Even if they eat all kinds of healthy food, once they catch just common cold, they are so scared that they may have some incurable disease and die. This is how people live their entire life; there is no peace or rest for their souls. But we have been saved from all those predators and we have the deep sense of security that he holds our future and that our life is in Jesus' hands that we don't die by accident without any purpose. Finally, we have found rest for our souls in Jesus Christ. Jesus says, "Whoever enters through me will be saved." This is Jesus' promise for all those who enter through him.
The statement, "He will come in and go out" is an expression of enjoying freedom. Many people think of living as Christians as living with a whole bunch of "do"s and "don't"s. But that's not true. It is to live as free men and women in God. Enjoying freedom, this is what all mankind have looked for. One person said, "Give us freedom, or death." But often, as they pursue freedom doing whatever they want, they end up becoming loyal slaves of sin. This freedom is found in Jesus' sheep pen, and given to those who happily live in his sheep pen. If Adam had remained in God's sheep pen by obeying his command, he would have enjoyed this freedom forever. David sang a song of thanks to his shepherd, God, saying, "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul... Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life,..." (Ps 23) In living as Jesus' sheep by obeying his instructions and following his guidance is the real sense of security, peace and freedom. Indeed, there you can say, "Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life." Surely, Christian life is not the life of a whole bunch of restrictions and regulations, but the life of enjoying freedom in God by living as Jesus' good sheep. Jesus invites those who are outside this sheep pen, who are harassed, frightened. He invites all those wounded souls, saying, "I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out."
Jesus also says, "Whoever enters through me will find pasture." Pasture is what is most essential for the sheep. With green grass on the pasture, they are satisfied – yum yum; they can grow healthy and sound; they become strong and produce beautiful wools very well. With pasture, their life is flourishing and they are happy. Jesus promises that whoever enters through him, whoever lives in his sheep pen will find pasture that will satisfy them, nourish their souls and make their lives so fulfilling. Jesus is talking about what we have been looking for all the time – something that will make our lives truly meaningful, fulfilling and great. Everyone wants to find it. But they never find what they truly want in this world. Instead, what they find are wolves, lions, thieves and robbers. Adam, the first man thought that outside the will of God he would find wisdom and that he would be like God. But what he found outside God's sheep pen was sorrows, misery, bitterness, pains and death. Only inside the sheep pen, we find pasture we have been looking for, and our souls are satisfied. Then our testimony becomes: "I have all I need." "My cup overflows." "Your grace upon me is sufficient." From our lips comes out thanks and praise to God all the time. With pasture we also grow up as healthy, sound and strong sheep of Jesus. We grow from glory to glory as children of God.
Jesus proclaims, "I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out, and find pasture." All those who enter through Jesus are truly blessed: they are saved from all harms and dangers; they enjoy truly free life in Jesus' sheep pen. Moreover, they find pasture, which they have been looking for; they are satisfied and grow up as beautiful, noble, truly respectful and honorable men and women of God. All these blessings are given to everyone who enters through Jesus, the gate.
Look at verse 10. Let's read this verse together:
10The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Throughout human history, mankind had only two guests: the first one was the devil. When he visited our father, Adam, and his wife, Eve, and said, "Did God really say that you must not eat from any tree in the Garden?", he looked like a friend concerning their happiness. However, later, it turned out that he was really an enemy. Adam and Eve were not aware of this, and were deceived by him. As a result, they lost everything – their wealth as king and queen, their health and life, their mission and position as God's stewards and the rulers over God's creation. Today, this thief still looks for a chance to steal, kill and destroy children of God like a roaring lion. Maybe, what he whispers into our ears is sweet and what he shows us looks attractive - great success or a romantic relationship and happy family, but remember: His purpose is not to give you anything good or make you happy, but to steal all good things from you; he wants to steal your joy, happiness, meaning and purpose of life, your beauty, purity, and integrity as children of God. So many people have followed this thief, paying attention to his voice, and as a result, they have lost everything; and now in their thirties, or forties or fifties, their life has no meaning and purpose and they have no joy or happiness; instead, they are miserable, lonely, sorrowful, painful, and fearful; their life carries no value at all, no meaning at all. But this terrible enemy does not stop there with stealing alone; his real purpose is to see the end - he wants to kill and destroy; he is really terrible, so don't be deceived even if he looks good and uses tempting words.
The second guest was Jesus. The purpose of his coming was that his sheep may have life, zoe - that truly fulfilling, dynamic and powerful life. For this purpose, he opened the eyes of the blind, healed the paralytic and made the lamb walk again; he did whatever was necessary for people to have life, zoe; he even would lay down his life for them - that much Jesus wants us to have zoe. Indeed, he has helped us to have zoe, a truly fulfilling life, and certainly he will do more if necessary for us to enjoy zoe. Jesus never wants us to just exist by the means of a career and family - that is the life that is perishing. In his eyes, such life is the life of zombies, the life of the dead. Jesus comes to you so that you may have life, zoe. This is his purpose for you. He says to us, "Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." This is how we can enjoy zoe, eternal life, in him. Jesus says, "Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor. Then, come and follow me." This is how we can enjoy eternal life in him. "Whoever loses his life for me will save it." This is how we can enjoy eternal life in him. "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength." This is how we can enjoy eternal life. How happy we are when we follow Jesus as his disciples! We were so thrilled and satisfied when we served the messages and symposiums powerfully at the conference. How cool it is to proclaim God's words to many students through one to one Bible studies. God has established us as shepherds and Bible teachers for God's flock.
How is your Christian life in Jesus? Surely, our life in him has been so glorious and fulfilling; we are happy. But certainly, it is not all. Jesus says, "They may have life and have it to the full." Jesus wants us to enjoy this new life, zoeto the full - the full spectrum of this new life in him - the joy of finding the secrets of the kingdom of God in the word of God; the joy of having fellowship with God in prayer, the mystery of coworking together with the Holy Spirit in doing his work, the thrill of having a sword battle face to face through one to one Bible studies, and the surpassing greatness of knowing Jesus Christ our Lord really, the joy of finding the lost,... Jesus wants us to enjoy all these to the full. That's why we need to follow him wholeheartedly. That's why we need to get rid of any and every sin that entangles us so easily. When we enjoy this new life zoe to the full, surely, the whole world will be blessed through us and God's glory will be revealed powerfully. This is Jesus' vision for us; this is Jesus' purpose for our life. Surely, he loves us, and his plan for us is only good all the time. Praise Jesus, our shepherd who leads us to green pasture. So, let's follow his guidance wholeheartedly, throwing away all kinds of doubts and mistrust. When we put our trust in him, certainly, we will not be put to shame.
In today's passage, we heard the promise of Jesus for those who enter through him. Jesus says, "I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out, and find pasture." Only Jesus is the shepherd, and we must enter his sheep pen through him. Then, we enjoy this abundant life, life to the full, enjoying salvation, new and powerful life in him. May God bless us to hear his voice and enter his sheep pen through him.
One Word: Whoever Enters Through Jesus Will Be Saved

Schloss Augustusburg
Address: vis-à-vis the railway station, 50321 Brühl
Read more
Schloss Augustusburg, the favourite palace residence of the prince-elector and archbishop of Cologne Clemens August of the House Wittelsbach (1700 – 1761), is one of the great masterpieces of rococo and the first important example of this style in Germany. The Schloss, together with the hunting lodge of Falkenlust and the park and garden grounds, which connect the two palaces, comprises the entire complex of an electoral residence which has been preserved with a completeness that is seldom encountered. The complex was recognized by UNESCO and added to the list of World Heritage Sites in 1984.
Already by the 12th century, the Archbishop of Cologne had an established manor and game hunting grounds where the present-day palace complex stands. In the year 1284 the Archbishop Siegfried had a moated castle built as a stronghold against the city of Cologne, which was completed in 1298. The castle was fortified under Archbishop Walram. The castle stood until 1689, when it was destroyed by the French in the Palatinate War of Succession. It was on the ruins of this middle ages castle that Archbishop Clemens August ordered Schloss Augustusburg be built. In 1725 work began following plans by Westphalian architect Johann Conrad Schlaun. Since the new construction was ordered on the foundation of the old, the window axes of the side wings could not be symmetrically allocated, an atypical feature in baroque architecture.
Beginning in 1728 under François de Cuvilliés, Bavarian architect to the imperial court, Schloss Augustusburg was designed and decorated to stand as the preeminent residence of its time. Artists renowned across Europe worked on the Schloss up until its completion in 1768. Of particular note are Balthasar Neumann, who completed the design for the world-renowned staircase, and Carlo Carlone, who created the impressive ceiling frescos in the staircase and garden hall.
Schloss Augustusburg was badly damaged by the end of the Second World War. Nevertheless efforts to restore it to its previous splendour had already begun by 1946. From 1949 to 1996, Schloss Augustusburg was in many decades used as an official representative palace by the state. Elaborate receptions were held by the president of Germany to greet foreign dignitaries here. Today, the state of North Rhine-Westphalia is the owner and steward of the grounds, ensuring that the world-renowned palace in Brühl will be conserved in perpetuity, and together with Schloss Falkenlust maintained as a museum open to the public.

5 Reasons Why You Need A Wash & Fold Service
For some homeowners, doing their own laundry is a task they can take anytime. But there are instances when you need to help of a professional wash and fold service to get the job done.
If you are not convinced that you need a reliable expert in laundry in Al Barsha, these reasons might be enough to convince you to contact and partner with one:
- Give you an extra time
When you are living a bust life, you always need to buy time to do other things. You need to expertly schedule your task so you can accomplish everything, including doing your laundry. However, if an emergency arises, you need to set aside some task to attend to this crisis. More often than not, your laundry is one of them. In this cases, you need to have a reliable laundry shop that you can turn to to do your laundry in case you are running on a tight schedule.
- Reduce your utility bills
Some people think that constantly having a laundry shop wash your clothes in expensive. At first look, you might think it is true. But when you take into account the electricity that you are using for doing your laundry, the cost might be the same. Not to mention the amount of detergents you consume on a regular basis. Having a wash and fold service do your laundry can save you money in more ways than one.
- Take the load off your shoulder
If you feel exhausted after a day of hard work and stress, it is hard to lift a finger, much less do your laundry. If you are feeling a little worn down or sick, let your trusted laundry shop do the washing and folding for you. It will give you a time to rest and even unwind a little.
- Constant supply of clean clothes
Of course, we all want to wear clean clothes all the time. But it is not every day that we can take care of our laundry. Taking your clothes to a laundry shop for a wash will ensure that you will have fresh, clean clothes all the time, especially during the instances that you are not able to do your laundry.
- Expertly clean delicate materials
Washing clothes made of silk and satins can be hard. If you don't have the expertise and the right cleaning agents, there is a high chance that you will ruin the material. Let your trusted laundry shop take care of this job for you.

Patrick Greene told me about his family's tradition of harvesting and boiling cane in late November. I got up at the crack of dawn and drove east through downtown. There was a violent panic to the traffic as people rushed to their jobs in the city. I drove till the East West Expressway ended and then continued east. I missed the farm's driveway on my first pass. I turned around in the parking lot to a natural preserve. I wasn't sure how far to drive down the dirt road, so I followed it back to a barn. When I got out of my truck a hound dog let out a hollow howl. He was harmless, he came up and sniffed my hand.
A dozen men, many with cowboy hats, sat around several tables swatting flies. I asked for Patrick and they directed me back to the house at the road. I drove back. Patrick greeted me at the front door. His mother was in the living room and she apologized for the mess although everything looked in it's place to me. She is an artist herself and she pointed to several rendered pencil drawings that she had done. They were framed and looked good against the dark wood paneling.
Patrick walked back to the barn with me and introduced me around as "the artist." The cane had already been harvested. Then joked that we should have gotten up much earlier to help with that. The cane was crushed by a mechanical crusher and the sweet liquid was gathered. My sister Pat Boehme had some cane growing in her yard in Port Charlotte. I asked to cut a stalk so I could see how it tasted raw. I cut out the soft inner pulp and chewed on it. Raw cane is delicious but once the initial burst of flavor passed, I had to spit out the chewed pulp. A neighbor said that as a child, he was given raw cane as a treat instead of candy.
Back in the barn a large cauldron full of cane juice was boiling. Thirteen rows of cane were not harvested since they had plenty of cane juice for the boil. The heat was intense and the steam rose. Several men were always on hand to skim the surface removing the debris and thin film that rose to the surface. All morning the furnace blazed. An inner metal cylinder was placed inside the cauldron and mesh was wadded up and inserted around the edge to soak up more of the film. A breeze began wafting the steam away. Several men tacked up a green drop cloth to block the breeze. It seemed the steam needed to linger and rise straight up for the boil to be most effective. By the end of the day all that would be left was a thick syrup which the women would bottle. This is a true old Florida tradition, a look at an art form that is fading away in our fast paced times.

You ever come across those accounts on Instagram where everyone dresses the same? They eat the same foods, pose the same and they all dress alike. They're highly popular and they're beautiful accounts but they're also annoying. Why? Because they all look the same! Now let's translate that into real life. Fashion has a tendency to turn us into clones and it needs to stop.
You guys know I'm most comfortable wearing jeans and a t-shirt and an statement shoe. I do this because I love it, it's who I am. I appreciate comfort above everything but I still want to stand out in my own way. Makes sense right?
As a 15 year old - I had long dark hair in loose fizzy waves and wore lots of eyeliner. I lived in concert tees from my faves; Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Nirvana, and Nine Inch Nails paired with my father's old paint splattered jeans almost daily. I'd pop in a tape (remember tapes?) and I'd curl up in bed and read Vogue and Bazaar, drooling over the runway looks from Marc Jacobs, Todd Oldham and Isaac Mizrahi who where HUGE at the time. (Actually MJ's debut collection for Perry Ellis cost him his job but look at him now!)
It was the 90s people and I was growing up in the era of grunge music and supermodels and it left a deep imprint of what my personal style would eventually become.
Fast forward to now. I dress for me and I only buy what I love. I don't have time to fill my closet with nonsense and I don't have time to dress for other people. Women of all ages have always gravitated towards my style and it always surprises me because I'm not exactly conventional. And yet at the same time, is it possible these women are drawn to the authenticity of my style? Perhaps. Regardless I'm thankful because even though it may sound a tad superficial, it's been a fun way of meeting new people.
For all of you still looking to define your personal style just remember to dress for yourself - dress for your body type and not the trends and above all else, wear what makes you happy. Experiment with different looks and have fun. Life is too short to confine yourself to looking like everyone else don't you agree?
I bought this shrunken military jacket on Free People recently and the pins during the summer. I just transferred them over to this jacket for a little pizazz and personality. My double stone ring is from designer Lisbeth Jewelry who happens to make my favourite pieces season after season.
The jeans I'm wearing are from Forever 21. I simply cut the holes in the knees myself.
Special thanks to Frank & Eileen Tee Labs for always keeping me comfortable and cozy in their cool basics. I'm wearing the Ultimate Layer tank in the colour Lucky.
*In collaboration with Frank & Eileen.

This Court Case Proves Why the Oxford Comma is Valuable
Never again should the Oxford Comma's power be doubted.
The comma is an optional one that is used before an 'and' or 'or' at the end of a list. It's surprisingly controversial online, with its uses or lack of them being vociferously debated, but a labor court case has now settled the argument, CNN reports.
A group of dairy drivers in the dispute argued that they deserved overtime pay and the appeals court agreed with them. Why?
Because the guidelines setting out the types of work that don't require overtime pay lacked clarity. The case turned on one particular extract:
(2) Meat and fish products; and
(3) Perishable foods."
The lack of an Oxford comma between "packing for shipment" and "or distribution of" meant that it was unclear whether the guidelines meant distribution and packing for shipment were separate things, or whether the exemption applied to jobs involving either packing for shipment or packing for distribution.
According to the court, the dairy drivers in question only distributed but didn't pack perishable food, so weren't necessarily covered by the clause. The judge added that where such rules are unclear, labor laws are structured to benefit employees, so the dairy drivers won.
Sorry Internet, you'll have to find another piece of punctuation to argue over.

The Black Angel's Death Song
A friend has been trying to turn me onto darker psych lately. I've always been a fan of The Velvet Underground but his taste extends further into such territory. I consider myself pretty anti counter-culture so the depraved movements of heroin and bondage inspired psychadelia I can dig on. This has prompted me to revisit Love and Rockets quite a bit lately. I'm also leaving all of you with some music by a relatively new band named "Singapore Sling"(pictured above).

Mother's Day is approaching fast — this year it's on May 13th — and since a good book is, as always, a popular gift, we decided to take a look at various book-related trends surrounding the holiday.
To start, we looked at a quick snapshot of the five top-selling books the week leading up to Mother's Day from the past five years (a lighter version of our usual perennial studies) to see if we could spot any patterns. Publishers tend to release big "chick lit" titles in the front half of the year, as they are a popular gift for moms and for summer reading lists. This includes authors like Danielle Steel, Jodi Picoult, Sophie Kinsella, Nora Roberts, and Nicholas Sparks. But are these the titles selling well leading up to Mother's Day?
Top 5 titles the week of Mother's Day
- Into the Water by Paula Hawkins
- Jack Reacher: Night School by Lee Child
- The Handmaid's Tale (TV tie-in edition) by Margaret Atwood
- The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah
- The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware
- The Nest by Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney
- The Trials of Apollo: The Hidden Oracle by Rick Riordan
- Undercover by Danielle Steele
- The Crown by Kiera Cass
- Me Before You by Jojo Moyes
- Jack Reacher: Personal by Lee Child
- The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins
- My Secret Sister by Helen Edwards and Jenny Lee Smith
- 14th Deadly Sin by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro
- Leaving Time by Jodi Picoult
- Finding Me by Michelle Knight and Michelle Buford
- Chestnut Street by Maeve Binchy
- The Longest Ride by Nicholas Sparks
- The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
- Unlucky 13 by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro
- Guilty Wives by James Patterson and David Ellis
- Dead Ever After by Charlaine Harris
- The Spark: A mother's story of nurturing genius by Kristine Barnett
- Odd Apocalypse by Dean Koontz
- Wedding Night by Sophie Kinsella
While there are a few "chick lit" books in these lists, there are also some thrillers and even YA (as well as the always popular James Patterson). Books in the "female thriller" category, like Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn and The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins, are overwhelmingly read by women, which is likely the reason Paula Hawkin's second novel was published in the weeks leading up to Mother's Day 2017 and why thrillers in general are often in the top five during the second week of May.
But how many of these are possible Mother's Day gifts and how many are just popular bestsellers as we gear up for summer reading lists? To dig a bit deeper, we compared the top five books the week leading up to Mother's Day against the week following, again for the last five years, to see if there are any books or patterns that stand out.
We discovered that books by male authors are more popular the week following Mother's Day. This includes books by Lee Child, Clive Cussler, and Dan Brown. Obviously these books are widely read by both genders (with more than half of Lee Child's readership made up of women), but, statistically, thrillers by female authors are more popular with average reader (who happens to be female) than thrillers written by male authors, which is why several male writers use a female pseudonym for their thriller titles.
In the week leading up to Mother's Day from 2013 to 2017, 64% of the top five books have been female-authored, while only 28% have been male-authored. However, of the top five books the week immediately after Mother's Day, 44% have been male-authored and 44% have been female-authored. The rest of the titles have either been have both male and female contributors or don't have a specific author's name attached (e.g., National Geographic Kids Almanac).
Another area of interest is, you guessed it, the metadata of Mother's Day books. We decided to take a look at how many times "mother's day" was used as a keyword for titles in BiblioShare. (We also included "gift for mom" in our search, so results include instances where one of these two keywords were used, as well as overlap where a title used both, such as "mother's day gift.")
"Mother's day" (or the above permutations) appeared as a keyword 1,541 times on a total of 1,100 ISBNs, under a total of 250 BISACs. The top 25 BISACs used on these ISBNs include:
- JUVENILE FICTION / Family / Parents (56 ISBNs)
- FAMILY & RELATIONSHIPS / Parenting / Motherhood (40 ISBNs)
- FICTION / Literary (37 ISBNs)
- FICTION / Women (36 ISBNs)

A new vaccine to provide teens and young adults protection against a deadly strain of meningococcal disease has been launched in Australia.
The meningococcal B vaccine Trumenba is now available for the immunisation of people 10 years and older, made by manufacturer Pfizer.
While rare, meningococcal disease can strike without warning, killing up to one in ten, and leaving up to a third of survivors with damaging after-effects ranging from psychological disorders to loss of limbs.
For the past 30 years meningococcal group B (MenB) has been one of the most prevalent strains of the disease in Australia.
Professor Robert Booy, Head of Clinical Research at the National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance (NCIRS) warns the disease has become more common in the last three years.

When it comes to online games, whether it is instant win games, or casino slots, EuroLotto proudly brings you the latest game releases, some of the biggest and most popular titles such as Yggdrasil's Viking's Go Berzerk, NetEnt's Gonzo's Quest, Microgaming's Jurassic World ™ among many others.
EuroLotto has recently added a new selection to their huge game library and this time it comes from the relatively new game providers, Gamevy.
It should come as no surprise that Gamevy scratch card games are taking iGaming fans by storm as their unique and innovative themes make you feel as if you're playing a bingo or lotto game than just your run of the mill scratch card or slot.
We've picked a few of their most popular titles, and gone through their features to see what makes these games so unique and fantastically fun!
Boss the Lotto
Boss the Lotto is an instant win game, and one that will show you "a new side" of lottery. Imagine a lottery game where you are trying to find the balls which did not get picked for the win. That is the basic concept of the game. Boss the Lotto costs anything from €1 to €40 per game, and comes with a top prize worth €100,000 in total.
How to play
You'll be presented with a screen of 49 differently coloured and numbers balls. To win, you must pick the numbers which you think will not form a winning line. The more digits you successfully locate, the bigger your wins will be.
Successfully guess six numbers, and you will reach a Cash Out Point within the game. Every guess beyond this point will give you the cash out option. But careful. should your next guess be one of the blacked-out numbers before you cash out, you will lose your bet and will have to restart.
How to Win the Jackpot
If you dream of winning the €100,000 top prize, you'll need to take your chances and go all the way in this instant win game. The process requires you to correctly select 43 out of the 49 numbers, without missing a single black. Do you have what it takes to guess all the correct numbers and win the jackpot?
Diamond Deal Scratch Card
Diamonds are a girl's best friend, and anyone else with a knack for big money prizes. Rare, they come with loaded value and always worth playing for, Diamond Deal is the latest scratch card game that has arrived in the world of online scratch cards and it has glistened the world of instant win games with an array sparkling rewards up for grabs.
Diamond Deal invites you to determine your destiny by picking from a selection of closed boxes. Your purpose in this game is to reveal 10 diamonds in a row without decreasing the value of your winnings or losing all your lives.
How to play
To start playing Diamond Deal, you will need to firstly set your bet amount, as there are 6 different betting options, and the more you bet, the higher the jackpot's value becomes.
The main game looks like the stage of a TV game show where a large grid sits under a stage light. The grid is comprised of fifty blue boxes. You have four lives to begin with, and each time you select an empty box, you lose a life. At the top right of the screen, you can see how much you stand to gain as well as how much your next correct pick is worth.
To pick a box, just hover your mouse over and click the corresponding box. You can also use the 'Quick Pick' option at the bottom of the screen to randomly select the boxes for you. Whenever you successfully discover a diamond, you will see the Cash Out option at the bottom of the screen light up. If you wish to discontinue and claim your prize, all you have to do is click the button. You can continue to select boxes to potentially win bigger rewards.
How to Win the Jackpot
Only ten of the fifty boxes have diamonds hiding within. Select an empty box and lose one of your 4 lives. However, you can always restore all 4 of your tries with a successful pick, but be aware, if you select 4 empty boxes in-a-row, you'll lose all your lives and all of your winnings on Diamond Deal.
Diamond Deal scratch card is one of instant win games that you'd want to play frequently, and with a potential €100,000 top prize at stake, it is well worth your time!
SpinLotto Slot
Among the favourite in instant win games is SpinLotto. If you've played lottery before, then by now you must know the drill – you pick numbers, wait for hours, sometimes days till the next draw comes up. If you don't win, you have to wait for another few days till the next draw. Well the newly released Spinlotto slot game is about to challenge that notion.
This slot feels unique to its kind, the action of selecting your unique set of winning symbols is not a common occurrence in slot games, not to forget that you also have the option of setting your multiplier. The only common slot element in this game is its 3×5 grid, as even its top prize is out of the norm at an insane 250,000 credits, which truth be told, is not so common on a slot machine even at the best of times.
How to Play
Getting started is easier than it looks, though it would help if you've already played a few slot games before. Still, selecting the winning digits is an awesome innovation that gives the game a lottery spirit. As with most lotteries, you must pick five "main" balls and then followed by a bonus number, which in this instance is referred to as the 'Star Booster'.
With your special selection, you must pick five numbers between 1 and 49. Match at least two numbers and be rewarded with a win. You must also pick a star number from a pool 1 to 15. The best part of this little added extra is that it has 2 very useful features to it: it can add a few extra increments onto your total or it can potentially transform a single match into a huge winning combination.
How to Win the Jackpot
Spinlotto slot has three huge prize rewards for you to scoop. Each one of them boasts an amount that any player would be happy to take home.
Normal Jackpot – Match any 5 of the winning numbers, even repeated numbers and your star booster for you to bag a x10,000 prize.
Mega Jackpot – You'll need to guess all winning numbers without any repetition, and of course that star booster number must be guessed. if that happens, then count your lucky stars because an incredible x100,000 credits will be rewarded to your account.
SPINLOTTO Ultra Jackpot – We've kept the best for last, and man is it a big one! Get all your balls in ascending order, without any repeats, and alongside the star booster – all in correct order and you will receive a colossal x1,000,000 (That's right! 1 million times) your bet.
If you're feeling lucky and up for a few games that could potentially change your life forever, then head down to EuroLotto by clicking here and you might just make yourself instantly rich!
Good luck!

Ezekiel 37:1-14
7 So I prophesied as I had been commanded; and as I prophesied, suddenly there was a noise, a rattling, and the bones came together, bone to its bone. 8 I looked, and there were sinews on them, and flesh had come upon them, and skin had covered them; but there was no breath in them. 9 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, mortal, and say to the breath:[c] Thus says the Lord God: Come from the four winds, O breath,[d]and breathe upon these slain, that they may live." 10 I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood on their feet, a vast multitude.
For centuries Christians have found meaning in this image of dry bones coming to life in the desert. In both our personal lives and in our communities we go through periods of time when we feel worn out, used up, and lifeless. One of the most important messages found throughout our scriptures is that God breathes life back into us, reviving us for new and unforeseen purpose.
And so often, the ways that God revives us are surprising. When we feel spent or used-up, it's almost impossible to see the ways that God could do new things. But over and over again, believers find that God is able and willing to do new things. Even when we can't see what purpose could be in store for us, God has a plan.

Our youth team started off great with a quick three-pointer by Nick Wong, followed by two free throws from Jalen Belton to get started with a 7 point lead. However Cornerstone Trinity played some tough defense, playing a full-court press for the entire game. This kept the game close and the halftime score was 11-13. But the tough Cornerstone defense wore down our team and they ended up losing 22 to 38.
Jalen Belton was kept to only 9 points but grabbed 8 rebounds and had 2 blocked shots. Kalen Williams had a good first game coming off an injury, scoring 5 points, 5 rebounds and 1 steal. Nick Wong had another good game with 4 points, 2 rebounds and 1 steal. Nathan Pen scored two points and grabbed 8 rebounds and 1 steal. Continuing with the great defense, Ryan Lau had 4 rebounds and 1 steal. Aniyah Santiago had 1 rebound, Jerry Huang had 3 rebounds and 1 steal and Ethan Hom had one steal.
Here is the full game below:
Come out to the next game on Monday July 23rd at 8:30pm. Thanks to everyone who represented from Day Camp and the CCU Gold Team!

This is the first tutorial for learning csharp.
Well i suggest everyone to read:
What are the requirements for this Progrom .
Well we are no different from Computer "gurus", everyone has to start with a easy program to go. Well easy in the sense output is just a String output it can be "Hello user" or "welcome to csharpGoodies" etc. The main interest for you should be how the program starts, what are "main", "static", "return types", other classes inside the program and its properties and hows its different for C, C++ and java.
As everyone by now know C# is a simple, modern, object oriented, and type-safe programming language derived from C and C++. MicroSoft want this no different from basic c++ with more advanced features so the class you see is similar to C++ except for NameSpaces.
// First program in C#, Comments in program start with "//
using Csharpgoodies.Tutorial;{
using System;
class CsharpGoodies
public static void Main() {
Console.Write("Hello World!!The place to learn new technolgies --CsharpGoodies");
} //end of main
} // end of class CsharpGoodies
}//end of namespace
For C, C++ , Java Guru's and C# beginners:
I have taken care to give pin-point details of each and everything right in this first example. I request beginners to follow some of the links to get in detail with keywords, modifiers, namespaces and classes.
--1> :: or -> operators are not used in this canonical C# program. C# does not use either. If you see the keywords list provided you dont see "::", it is not an operator in C# at all, "->" is used in very few case we will discuss keywords in detail as we move on. Period "." is used in C# program as a separator in compound names such as Console.Write. example: class.method, namespace.namespaceChild.class.method
using System;
Please look at this carefully, you are referencing a "namespace". You are promting your program to use any classes(if) in the program with that of the namespace "System". what classes of "System" did we use in our "CsharpGoodies"? answer is Console. if you dont want to use namespace how can you reference the namespace, simply add whole namespace to all the classes you use example you can also say - System.Console.Write but if you have more classes of System to be referenced the neat and elegant way is to add a namespace using System;
--5> class classname {......}
As you all know how classes are written in C++ and java and structures in C. A class is a data structure that contains data members such as constants, fields, and events, function members such as methods, properties, indexers, operators, constructors, and destructors, and nested types.
--6> pubic .... Each member of a class has a form of accessibility. here it is "public", public members are available to all classes;
--8> void Every method should have a return type. In our first example it is void but as we move further i will show you where return types are used.
--10> Console.Write(" ")
Console is a class defined in the namespace System, and Write is a static method defined on that class. if you have not specified "using namespace" you can aslo do this by System.Console.Write. This prints out the String on to the console.
--11>Note: All statements end with a ";", semi-colon. Classes and methods begin with "{", and end with a "}", everything within these braces are called blocks and they have scope for program elements. All namespaces, classes and variables etc are case sensitive in C#.

What Are The Different Whistleblower Laws?
Below, whistleblower attorney Tony Munter discusses the different whistleblower laws and the impact they have on those looking to come forward and expose any wrongdoing.
What is The Difference Between The False Claims Act and The Whistleblower Laws?
Well the False Claims Act is one of many Whistleblower Laws. There are all kinds of Whistleblower Laws out there. They allow or provide legal rights to Whistleblowers for taking the action of reporting something that they see is wrong. Some people think that the first Whistleblower Law for example is the First Amendment to the United States constitution which provides freedom of speech and provides protection for freedom of speech.
The False Claims Act is very special and very narrowly tailored in the sense that it provides a reward to the Whistleblower for helping the government and helping the government fight fraud against the government. It is a Whistleblower Law I believe that is one of the strongest but it is a special law and it has an unusual provision in it that allows you to sue on behalf of the government.
There are really not very many other such laws, maybe it is just State False Claims Act, that have a provision that allows you to sue on behalf of the any government entity. Usually you can only sue on behalf of yourself or someone with whom you have a direct connection. So it is a pretty special law. It is one of many Whistleblower Laws but it is probably the most used Whistleblower Law.
How Many Whistleblower Laws Are There and What is The Best Whistleblower Law?
Well I happen to think that the best Whistleblower Law is the False Claims Act but on the other hand there are lots of cases for which the False Claims Act is not appropriate.
For example, the Federal False Claims Act specifically does not allow you to sue with respect to tax frauds because if you are going to sue for tax fraud you really have to make a disclosure to the IRS and let the IRS handle it. You don't have an independent right of action under the IRS Whistleblower Law but it is a Whistleblower Reward Law and it may be very valuable.
Similarly a suit for securities fraud assuming that the government isn't somehow involved in holding any of the securities or owning any of the securities isn't going to work under the Federal False Claims Act. So a SEC Whistleblower Law which you know may not be for every case as strong is you know the appropriate Whistleblower Law to use under those circumstances.

Another unfortunate way N.C. is unique
The Observer editorial board
North Carolina just can't get sex right.
Last year, legislators spent time debating, passing, then repealing a law that, in part, mandated where people could relieve themselves based on gender, all the while forcing the state to miss out on millions of dollars of economic activity and debasing its image.
Over the final few days of the legislative session, legislators could drag their feet long enough to not close a glaringly ugly loophole in N.C. rape law.
Women in North Carolina don't have the legal right to withdraw consent during sexual intercourse. While many other states leave this as a legal gray area, only the Tar Heel state explicitly says men can finish sexual intercourse no matter how much or how loudly his partner says no, no matter how violent the encounter, and not be guilty of rape.
A perpetrator can be charged with other related crimes, but not rape. The law was interpreted that way in a 1979 ruling by the state's Supreme Court and has made it difficult for prosecutors to even bring charges.
It's why state Sen. Jeff Jackson of Charlotte has been sounding the alarm bells since 2015, when he initially received bipartisan support to close the loophole. But it didn't receive a vote then and might be overlooked again this year, despite there being no expressed opposition.
"If there are any major objections to this, I have not heard them," Jackson told the Observer editorial board.
It's bad enough that women in North Carolina have faced nearly four decades of being told no doesn't always mean no. That injustice will be compounded if the legislature refuses to treat the loophole with the urgency it deserves. This should not be the law of the land for another day, let alone another year or two.
It's not surprising that even egregious decades-old laws languish on the books. But once they are discovered and highlighted, there's no reason for them to remain.
Jackson's push comes at a time the law and rape are being heavily scrutinized. While an accused's due process rights must remain sacrosanct, it has been more likely for a rapist to go unpunished than a victim to receive justice. A major backlog of unexamined rape kits still exists, and women are still too often shamed if they supposedly make a mistake in judgment.
Why did she have that extra glass of wine?
Why did she decide to go to his apartment alone?
That kind of thinking recently influenced one of the most high-profile cases in the country, that of comedian Bill Cosby.
While one juror believed Cosby was guilty based on a 2015 deposition in which Cosby admitted to going "into the area that is somewhere between permission and rejection," another told the Philadelphia Inquirer "let's face it: she went up to his house with a bare midriff and incense and bath salts. What the heck?"
The pursuit of justice involving rape is already brimming with murkiness. Whether a woman can legally revoke consent – at any moment or for any reason – shouldn't be.
