Is it better to be first or to be last? What does it mean to be first? What does it mean to be last?
Once upon a time, there was a land, rich and fertile, full of growth. There were farms bursting with fruit and vegetables and all was well… for both the farmers who had large and successful farms… and for the smaller and more modest farms as well.
But then one year, a drought came over the land as the rain stopped falling and the ground grew dry and no longer bountiful. The fruit and vegetable crops began to fail, the plants began to die and all was not well in this once happy place. The farmers and their families could not sell their fruits and vegetables and so hard times came upon them. They could not fully feed their families and it was a time of much sadness and despair.
But not for Mortimer the farmer. He was lucky because his, and only his, farm was located next to a large lake and he determined a manner of irrigating water from the lake and out onto his fields. While all of the farms around his were brown and barren, Mortimer's farm was rich in color and abundant.
Times were good for Mortimer the farmer.
One by one, the other farmers came to Mortimer's farm and asked:
"Mortimer, will you share your water with us?"
"Mortimer, if we come with our wagons and barrels and carry the water ourselves, can we have some of your water?"
And: "Mortimer, one day the rains will return. Can you please help us keep our fruits and vegetables growing until that time? We will do anything to repay you for your kindness."
But Mortimer's heart was hardened and he took no sympathy on the other farmers. He wanted all of the water for himself. Every time he was asked one of these questions, he answered: "No!"
This went on for many months. Mortimer's farm continued to thrive while all the other farms did not. Eventually, all of the other farmers stopped coming to visit Mortimer.
Then one day, while out working in his field… Mortimer slipped and fell and hurt his leg very badly. He could no longer tend to the field and his wife and young children could not, by themselves, keep up with all of the work. Mortimer's field began to become overgrown. The fruits and vegetables began to die on the vine, unable to be harvested, unable to be sold.
Mortimer had an idea: what if all of the other farmers who could no longer tend to their own dry fields came and worked on his own? What if they helped Mortimer? And what if Mortimer, as repayment for their work, allowed them to take all the water from the lake that they needed? That way everyone would win. But as he thought about this possibility, he grew sad. He remembered that they no longer came by because he refused to help them before. He feared that his own selfishness would cause the other farmers to say no to him just as he had once told them no. So… Mortimer did not ask. And his farm began to fail.
Then, a short time later, the rain began to fall again. The other farms began to come back to life, the fruits and vegetables began to grow again and all was well again in all the land.
But sadly, not for Mortimer the farmer.
Jesus teaches his followers that "the last will be first, and the first will be last" (Matthew 20). This is his way of saying that those who are in positions of great power or wealth or good fortune – such as Mortimer the farmer – here in this life are not guaranteed eternal life with him in heaven. In fact, he tells them that those who are poor or vulnerable, those who suffer or who face the greatest challenges in life, are going to be at the head of the line going into heaven. That those who might be 'last' here will someday be 'first'.
It's important to remember this in life because we are all special, all God's beloved children, no matter what our lives may be like here. And also, it's worth remembering that our circumstance may change, as happened with Mortimer. One day, he was 'on top of the world', the one with all the water, the one with the successful farm, the one who had everything he needed in order to be rich and powerful. He was first. But then in an instant, everything changed. He went from first to last.
So, if we find ourselves "last", we must hold out hope knowing that our creator God cares for us deeply and loves us. And if we are "first", we must be humble and caring to all those who are less fortunate.

What's Brewin in Sports Book Club
At the What's Brewin in Sports Radio Network, we like to read and the Host of "Kickin it with Keeler" Ricky Keeler recently read and reviewed "Through My Eyes" by Tim Tebow with Nathan Whitaker. Click on the picture and you will be taken to amazon to buy the book.
Through My Eyes Book Review
One of the more, if not the most compelling figures in sports is Tim Tebow. People have debated him left and right and some still question whether his faith is legitimate or not. I have been a Tebow supporter ever since his days as a college quarterback at the University of Florida. Through My Eyes is written by the man himself as a memoir. It is a book that chronicles Tebow's life from his miraculous birth to his rookie season with the Denver Broncos. If you question Tebow's faith at all, you will change your mind on the man once you read this book.
Most people said that he could not make it at any level. Whether it is the "position by body stereotype" or where he got his throwing motion from, you will learn things about Tim that will make you want to root for him even more. As a Christian, reading this book has also helped to encourage me on my walk with the Lord.
Every chapter starts off with a bible verse and Tebow relates the verse to each point in his life. You get to go inside the championship years at Florida and his religious conversations with Urban Meyer and Dan Mullen. This is not only just a football book, but a book that can help you in times of questioning your faith because yes, in this book, Tim addresses the central point that God does not determine who wins and who loses football games.
Even if you are not a Denver Broncos fan, check out this book and get an inside look into the life of a man who plays football and lives life to the glory of God. You wonder sometimes how Tebow can get through all the criticism he receives from media elite, his own peers, and the football viewing public. If you read this book, you will see where he gets that strength and how we all need that strength at some point or another. This is a must read for both a football fan and a Christian looking for strength and encouragement along their walk with the Lord!

Another fantastic essay by Justin O'Beirne, this time focused on explaining one of Google Maps' strongest advantages over Apple Maps: the ability to use data to create more data.
With "Areas of Interest", Google has a feature that Apple doesn't have. But it's unclear if Apple could add this feature to its map in the near future.
The challenge for Apple is that AOIs aren't collected—they're created_. And Apple appears to be missing the ingredients to create AOIs at the same quality, coverage, and scale as Google.
This is a perfect example of Google's institutional approach to data collection paying off in the long term, giving them a substantial lead over the competition. O'Beirne's visual comparisons between Google Maps and Apple Maps are just brutal.
Yes, Apple Maps may be "prettier", but when you're going somewhere, or need to find a specific point of interest, I bet you don't care about "pretty". You just want your map to tell you where to go, or show you accurately where you're meant to be. Google is objectively ahead here, and Apple Maps' slow evolution is concerning. There's an interesting parallel here between Apple Music and Apple Maps: both nicer iOS apps than Spotify and Google Maps, and both far behind in terms of intelligence of the service itself.
As I wrote earlier this year:
Speaking from personal experience, Google Maps has considerably improved in my area in the past year, while Apple Maps has remained essentially the same. Which isn't to say that Apple Maps is bad – Google simply has an edge over local business information and they're evolving at a faster pace than Apple. To me, Apple Maps looks and feels nicer; Google Maps seems smarter and it has modern features I'd like Apple to add.

DONG DONG QIANG! Happy Chinese New Year! Here are pictures from Chinatown in Singapore. The amount of people was absolutely astounding. Can't imagine navigating through the pile of... individuals...
A shop selling stuff before the new year
A blind busker playing very nice tunes, located just outside the train station.
Chinese calligraphy.... A dying art..
Remember how I said that there were tons of people... well, ta-da!
Now this was absolutely... astounding... Naturally, the dogs were less entertained than the people taking photos.
The same location taken at three different heights.
Figured I'd have some human interaction in my photographs. Here's a family.. doing a selfie.. with a man clearly waiting for someone... or getting lost.
A couple doing a selfie.. how I wish to be young again..

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, Nov 2016
Background We investigated the influence of geographical predisposition on the spatial distribution and composition of coronary plaques. Methods Thirty coronary arteries were evaluated. A total of 1441 cross-sections were collected from intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and radio-frequency signal-based virtual histology (VH-IVUS) imaging. To exclude complex geographical effects of side branches and to localise the plaque distribution, we analysed only eccentric plaques in non-branching regions. The spatial distribution of eccentric plaques in the coronary artery was classified into myocardial, lateral, and epicardial regions. The composition of eccentric plaques was analysed using VH-IVUS. Results The plaque was concentric in 723 sections (50.2%) and eccentric in 718 (49.9%). Eccentric plaques were more frequently distributed towards the myocardial side than towards the epicardial side (46.7 ± 7.5% vs. 12.5 ± 4.2%, p = 0.003). No significant difference was observed between the myocardial and lateral sides (46.7 ± 7.5% vs. 20.8 ± 5.0%) or between the lateral and epicardial sides. Eccentric thin-capped fibroatheromas were more frequently distributed towards the myocardial side than towards the lateral side (p = 0.024) or epicardial side (p = 0.005). Conclusion Geographical predisposition is associated with distribution, tissue characterisation, and vulnerability of plaques in non-branching coronary arteries.

Njombe, Tanzania—Selemani Nyika, a 60-year-old farmer and patriarch of a large Njombe family, is among those few men who are circumcised through traditional methods in a region where male circumcision is not a norm. Some of his sons also have been circumcised.
Nyika, however, became concerned about the safety of the instruments used and the high price demanded by traditional circumcisers. When he heard radio ads announcing safe and free male circumcision services at a government health facility, Nyika recognized a safe and affordable opportunity that would benefit his family's health. "When I heard that male circumcision is not only free, but also protective against HIV, I thought this was the opportunity I have been waiting for, for my sons who are not yet circumcised," said Nyika.
In June of this year, voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) was being provided as part of a comprehensive HIV prevention package of services at the Uhenga Dispensary in Nyika's home village. The father wasted no time in taking 11 of his sons—ages 10 through 21—to the health facility, where they were all circumcised on the same day.
With funding from the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the Government of Tanzania is scaling up HIV prevention services, including VMMC. This initiative is bringing these services close to families in Njombe and the neighboring Iringa region, two areas that have the highest prevalence of HIV in Tanzania and a low proportion of men who are circumcised. This innovative program is implemented by the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, Regional Health Management Teams, and the Maternal and Child Health Integrated Program (MCHIP), which is led by Jhpiego.
Nyika's sons were among 33,000 men who received this important HIV prevention service during a two-month campaign held in the two regions. Clients are counseled about and tested for HIV and educated about the benefits of VMMC, which reduces HIV acquisition in heterosexual men by 60 percent.Clients learn that male circumcision provides substantial, although partial, protection against acquiring HIV. They also learn that to protect themselves further, they should delay sexual activity or reduce their number of sexual partners, use condoms, and know the HIV status of their partners through couples counseling and testing.
With more than 250,000 men and boys circumcised in Njombe and Iringa since 2010, the MCHIP-supported VMMC program has now become a movement that is changing social norms. As a result of this program, circumcised men now outnumber uncircumcised men in Njombe and Iringa.
"Thanks to this program, all my sons are now circumcised, and protected too," said Nyika, who has 38 children with his five wives.
Two days after the procedure, Nyika's eldest wife, Salima Pendaeli, escorted their 11 sons to the dispensary for follow-up care. "Male circumcision does not only involve men. As the most senior wife and mother, I took the responsibility to escort our children to the clinic today," she said. "I have also been motivating other women in the village to encourage their husbands and bring their sons for circumcision."

A Complete Guide to WordPress SEO
Google's number one goal is to produce relevant search results for internet users. Because Google can't individually visit every website on the web to determine how "relevant" it is, Google has set algorithms that calculate the relevance of a website.
Here are the major factors that Google takes into consideration:
- Keywords and Keyword Density
- Title Tags and Meta Descriptions
- Frequently Updated Content
- Traffic Volume
- Relevancy of Inbound Links (Backlinks)
- Total Amount of Unique Content
- Navigation and Layout of a website
- Website Speed
Each one of these 8 factors determines a website's overall relevancy and ranking in search engines. In Google's mind, a well-built, high traffic website with plenty of fresh content, optimized keywords, and solid backlinks is what determines relevancy. It has very little to with any self-perceived sense of value or size in terms of employees.

IBT: Most parents would consider it a crime to give a child ice cream for breakfast. But they might rethink allowing their kids to have a scoop of the cold, sweet treat first thing in the morning, if they knew it could make them smarter. Although an early morning sugar rush may be parents and teachers worst fears, a new study recently found eating ice cream first thing in the morning can actually be beneficial for the brain. The study, published by Kyorin University professor Yoshihiko Koga, said eating ice cream right after waking up can result in improved instances of alertness and mental performance.
The study, which was published on Japan's Excite News website Tuesday, compared participant's brain activity in people who had been given ice cream immediately after waking up with those who had not eaten ice cream. Koga found that people who had consumed ice cream for breakfast showed better reaction time and were able to process information better than those who did not have the ice cream. Further tests of brain activity also showed that the people who had ice cream first thing in the morning had an increase in high-frequency alpha waves, which are associated with higher levels of alertness and can reduce mental irritation, the report said. …
Koga said in the report that he is also hoping to determine if ice cream is a trigger for positive emotion and higher levels of energy. …

Big if true.
You can choose to read the entire article or you can trust the excerpt above and the title of this here blog. Ice cream for breakfast makes you smarter, end of story. Fuck all that noise about finishing dinner before eating dessert. We should be eating ice cream before literally everything else. Well-balanced breakfast? How about you shut the fuck up and throw some extra sprinkles on top of my ice cream mountain? Ice cream to start the day. Ice cream to finish the day. Ice cream for mothafuckin lunch HOW BOUT DAH?!
What else needs to be said here? I've been right my entire life. I wanted to be an ice cream man from birth. Looks like all I wanted to do, actually, was be a humanitarian. Little did I know that all I really sought was an opportunity to provide a service to others. It was right in front of me, and I didn't even know it. I yearn to help people, and it's only now becoming clear.
"Koga said in the report that he is also hoping to determine if ice cream is a trigger for positive emotion and higher levels of energy."
Uhh yeah, man. I'll spare you the time, effort, money, beakers, and petri dishes. Ice cream triggers positive emotion. Great day for us all, people. Congrats to us.

Agate is a stone characterized by its unique coloring and layers. It can be found in a variety of stones but most commonly associated with volcanic rocks. This rock has been used for centuries as a form of decoration via pins, brooches, beads and marbles. When cut in half you can see all the different layers associated with the natural stone. These agate bands have been popping up all over the high end design world. If you are looking to score some agate products of your own, some of my favorites are at Majorie Skouras Lighting and Rablabs.

Before the internet or pinterest, my mother came up with a clever way to teach my sister and me about service. One evening she presented us with this gingerbread man she had made herself:
And in his little backpack there was a poem about serving others. (That my mom and I could not seem to remember) but it had to do with serving as a surprise for others. We were instructed to do kind things for one another and after we had done our good deed to leave the gingerbread man there so whoever the recipient was would know that they had been sneakily served. If you found you had been served then it was your turn next to give to someone else in the family. Pretty much it was a game of service tag with a gingerbread man.
Lately we've been focusing on serving in different ways in our community, which has been wonderful, but I wanted to bring the focus into our home because what does it matter if you're serving others out in the world, but neglecting and ignoring those who are closest to you?
So we made our own gingerbread man. We are less crafty than my mom so we cut it out of cardboard and let the girls each decorate a side.
And I made up my own little poem: (I did the best I could...)
Helping others is so much fun,
Sometimes I'm sneaky, help, then run!
Secret serving, I do all that I can,
But you can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man!
And then the games began!
The help with dishes, beds, and laundry has been nice:
Sometimes I leave an extra fun after-school snack:
Or the best is getting a kind note:
It is simple and easy and makes a happy little merry-go-round of service in our family. The better we take care of each other, the more we can help change the world.

This week's walk started from Morfa Mawddach station and headed up over the hills before finally finishing off (well finishing me off) in Llwyngwril.
As with many things in Southern Snowdonia, Arthog Falls are hidden away. In this case through an unmarked gateway – no sign, no obvious path but they are there. I've driven the road from Dolgellau to Friog (and beyond) many times but had never noticed the stone steps leading up from the road before. Once off the road the path heads steeply up the side of the falls, a little more steeply than my body was ready for at 8am on a Saturday morning. But the effort was well worth it (I can say in hindsight!). The river drops in a series of waterfalls and the dappled sun on the sparkling water made up for the effort of the climb. I'd love to show an image of the waterfall but my camera decided to play up so I have none. I think it was just cold as it was OK by the time we reached the top of the falls.
This is the bridge at the top of the falls. The view opens out and you can finally see the magnificent scenery that surrounds you.
Walking further on and higher up we had our first view of the Mawddach Estuary below us, Barmouth, Cardigan Bay and beyond. For most of the day we could see as far as Bardsay Island but unfortunately you can't see that far on this photo.
From this photo you can get an impression of how high we had climbed very quickly… we'd started at sea level.
As we continued to walk all that we could hear were sky larks and the occasional sheep. There wasn't even the sound of the wind. It was quite warm in the sun and it could easily have been the middle of summer… we've certainly walked on worse days in summer. We talked about how the sound of sky larks brought back memories of beaches and relaxing in the sun. It's amazing how a sound can do that for you.
We were still climbing but at a gentler pace now. These are a couple of photos looking back across towards Diffwys where we walked last week (in not such nice weather) and one towards Dolgellau and the Arans.
By the time these photos were taken we'd been walking almost 2 hours (10am) but due to the loop we'd taken to get us up the hill we were still further inland than when we'd started.
I'm sure that this is where talk of being hunted by lions began. Nick told a story of a pre-dawn walk were he could hear the sound of an animal but couldn't work out what it was. The only sound that he could liken it to was a lion hunting (obviously been watching too many nature documentaries!). Of course it wasn't a lion and there was a rational explanation but if you see a tabloid story about lions loose on Moel Famau… you heard it hear first.
Still climbing we finally came to a point above were the cars were parked… and we could see them – well I could see the sun shining on them. This is the view from above Morfa Mawddach.
You can see by this photo that we had climbed a fair old way.
This view-point is slightly off the main path. We did a slight detour to see a memorial plaque that is at this point. The memorial is to 20 US airmen who were killed when their B17G Flying Fortress crashed into the mountain in June 1945. This is just one of many World War II aircraft crash sites in Snowdonia.
Soon after this point we lost sight of the coast and passed what I always refer to as "the spooky forest" (due to all of the abandoned vehicles in the middle of it) and through Cwm Llwyd. Although not a million miles from civilisation when you are up there you are in, what appears to be, complete wilderness. Again the only thing that we could hear, apart from us squelching through the occasional wet bit, was the sky larks.
Eventually after a few more gates, a couple of very high stiles and some new-born lamb spotting we arrived in Llwyngwril.
We enjoyed a great walk in wonderful weather and walked the best part of 6 hours without seeing another person… not many places in Britain that you can do that.

Movies : The ones I am looking forward to
A Dog's Purpose
The story is about a dog who finds his meaning to life by teaching his owners how to love and laugh and live. He is around when they need him the most and from the trailer this story has got a heart gripping turn of events.
Out of all the movies I mention in this post, this is the one I'm looking forward to the most.
A Monster Calls
From the trailer this seems to be a very intense movie. It's about a boy who is dealing with hard things in life, a sick family member, a difficult family member and some pesky problems at school. In the midst of all this he makes a very unconventional friend who guide him to find courage and the truth.
Beauty and the beast
We have all heard and seen this story a 1000 times, but it will never get old. A beautiful girl go in search of her father and gets taken prison by a beast. The enchanted yet "different" house staff members charm Belle and she learns to look past the beast's appearance and see into his soul and see a whole different man.
LA LA Land
I did not know Emma Stone could sing. Anyway the movie is about two strong individuals who fight for their passion. Unfortunately their drive and passion is what put a strain on their relationship and ultimately split them apart. Basically your typical love story, only with lots of singing and some dancing.
It's about a boy who gets lots on a train, driving thousands of miles in India. He gets separated from his family and learn how to survive on his own until he gets adopted by a couple. 25 Years later he is determined to find his family despite all the set backs and obstacles.
What movies are on your list to go and check out, and which ones would you recommend that is not on my list?
Love ya

Designer's Notes | What's
New in Version 9.00
News Release
Contact: Anneliese Gimpel

Version 9.00 of its award-winning products PC-lint for C/C++ and FlexeLint for
C/C++. This is the first new version of the product since the release of Version 8.0
in 2001.
PC-lint/FlexeLint is a static analyzer
that will analyze a mixed suite of C and C++ programs and report on bugs, glitches
and inconsistencies. It aids in developing more secure, reliable, maintainable and portable

programmer to suspect code early in the cycle, when corrections can be made
easily and economically.
Version 9.00 provides a multitude of enhancements, including many new innovative checks,
features and options
This version adds static variable tracking to the suite of value tracking capabilities
that already include inter-statement and inter-function value tracking.
It also supports pre-compiled headers that can dramatically
increase processing speed.
Additional new features include a comprehensive multi-thread analysis, stack usage analysis,
program information dump, enhanced message control and message portrayal (html output, optional
integration with source code), MISRA C 2004 checking and MISRA C++ checking.

The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) will be enhancing its Global Trade Repository service (GTR) in support of the next phase of the Monetary Authority of Singapore's (MAS) derivatives trade reporting requirements which are scheduled to take effect on 1 October 2018. Under the new regulations, firms will be required to report their equities and commodities transactions to MAS, in addition to the credit, interest rate and FX asset classes which already fall under the regime.
All firms that are in scope for the next phase of MAS' derivatives trade reporting regulatory requirements will need to start submitting their derivative contracts directly to a licensed trade repository. Oliver Williams, a Regional Head of DTCC's GTR business in Asia, stated: "We applaud MAS' efforts to continue to bring increased transparency and reduced risk to the derivatives markets by adding equities and commodities to the reporting regime and we look forward to continuing to work with MAS and the industry to drive increased value from reported trade data."
DTCC operates regulated trade repositories in several countries and GTR is the only service that supports regulatory reporting across the Asia-Pacific region for all five major OTC derivatives asset classes, including credit, interest rates, equities, FX and commodities. In addition to supporting the MAS requirements in Singapore through DTCC Data Repository (Singapore) Pte. Ltd., GTR also supports reporting regimes through licensed trade repositories for the Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC), as an agent to the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), for the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), for the Financial Services Agency of Japan (JFSA), for Canadian regulators in each of the thirteen Canadian provinces and territories and for the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
Mr. Williams added: "DTCC's GTR is the only trade repository service approved by the MAS to operate in Singapore (through DTCC Data Repository (Singapore) Pte. Ltd.), and we look forward to expanding our service to meet forthcoming equities and commodities trade reporting requirements. It is critical that firms assess whether they are subject to the regulations, and review their preparedness as soon as possible."

Commission is dynamic and it depends on your 30 day trading volume. You can read more about ithere.
The tag is an additional indication of the address and it is very important if the service where you make the transferuses tagged purses.

We are sorry if this happened to you and you were not aware of the rules of Ripple about charging fees for "activation"of purses.
Although the official rule says that these funds are "reserved", but one way or another, you can not use them. Onsome services, they remain on balance and frozen forever, other services, for example, we simply do not displaythem on the balance.
The cancellation of 20 coins occurs only once at the time of first deposit. Accordingly, if the wallet was not activatedbefore and no remittances were made from it, then at the first attempt to transfer to another Purse purse (yourfriend, for example) 100 XRP - only 80 will come. After that, the wallet is considered "activated" and there willbe no such write-offs.
The rule is on the company's official website -https://ripple.com/build/reserves/
In this case, there will be no write-offs, you can use our wallet inside the exchange to store your funds - it'sfree of charge
A similar error usually occurs due to the synchronization of time on your smartphone. How can this be solved?
You need to download and install the time synchronization application that you can find in the official applicationstore -https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=en.org.amip.ClockSync
You need to use this article on the official Apple support site -https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203483
It is necessary to make sure in time and date settings that the time is set not in manual mode, but is taken fromthe Internet or synchronized with the operator's SIM card. Also try to rearrange the sim card in the phone.
If these actions did not help - contact our support

Student satisfaction on the rise for York's universities
York's two universities are both in the top 40 for overall student satisfaction in this year's National Student Survey (NSS) results. The Hull York Medical School has also continued its success in the NSS, being ranked in the top 10 for overall satisfaction and scoring a 95% satisfaction rating from students.
Conducted by Ipsos MORI, the NSS asks final year undergraduate students to rate their experiences in a range of areas including feedback and assessment, learning resources and personal development, as well as overall satisfaction.
For York St John University, the overall student satisfaction score has risen from 84% in 2014 to an exceptional 88% in 2015 - the third biggest point increase across UK institutions. The University of York's overall satisfaction score also rose from 86% to 88%, meaning that both of York's universities are now above the national average for higher education institutions in England.
Professor David Fleming, Vice Chancellor, welcomed the results. He said: "We have improved on every area of the survey from last year. A great deal of effort was made in 2014-15, across the University, to enhance the experience for all of our students and this has clearly made a difference".
Dr Janine Henderson, Programme Director at the Hull York Medical School, said: "We are delighted with these excellent results; we are proud of our students, our staff and our school and will continue to work together to deliver a first-class education at the Hull York Medical School".

Advanced minimally invasive technologies for star smiles
Modern dentistry has made remarkable progress, and restorative esthetics has become a specialty within the specialty; the development of increasingly sophisticated entirely ceramic systems that have now overtaken the old ceramic crowns supported by metal, makes possible renovations that are extraordinarily natural and perfectly camouflaged in the mouth.
The current trend is towards minimal invasiveness, that is, preparation of the teeth as little as possible to allow the performance of an adhesive restoration that sticks to the tooth surface with a very solid bond; in the past, the union between an artifact and the tooth had to be mechanical, at the cost of great sacrifice of healthy tooth tissue.
The facet technique (restoration of only the outer surface of the tooth) yields the most extraordinary of all cosmetic results, using thin ceramic shells like contact lenses, even with the removal of very small tooth substance. Several dentists throughout Italy that participate to the post-graduate training courses of this technique that take place every year, are excited about the extraordinary results that can be achieved. The sophisticated technology Cad/ Cam (computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing) allows the use of zirconium oxide, white material known for its high mechanical, as well as camouflage, properties, in instances where very strong, as well as cosmetic restorations are needed, providing an ideal replacement for gold. We must always keep in mind that the beauty of the person and the smile go hand in hand, and therefore great attention should be paid to the health of the tissues surrounding the teeth: there is nothing more attractive and sexy than a smile with teeth that are shining, well-aligned and morphologically harmonious with the face, surrounded by pink healthy gums.
It is recommended that young people take care of their smile, and therefore: try to keep their front teeth intact, and not biting pens, hard objects, and nails, in order to avoid small, but unsightly fractures of the incisal edges; avoid beverages and foods that might pigment the teeth, such as coca cola, licorice, green tea, etc.; limit the intake of many acidic substances, such as vinegar, lemon and sodas that erode tooth enamel; protect the teeth with special mouth pieces when dealing with contact sports; follow the advice of the hygienists with respect to dental techniques and tools of proper oral hygiene; do not smoke.

Maternal Early Life Adversity and Next Generation Wheeze and Allergy
- Author / Creator
- Pawlowski, Alicia N.
Chronic trauma in childhood can program an abnormal stress reaction, resulting in lifelong difficulties with stress management and poor health outcomes linked to changes in the immune system. At the same time, maternal stress during pregnancy has been linked to childhood asthma. Given the potential for a mother's early life maltreatment to shape her later response to stress during pregnancy, we hypothesized that preschoolers would be more likely to have a wheeze or allergic disorder if their mother has a history of adversity. We found a significant positive association between a mother's early experience of household dysfunction and childhood wheeze. Maternal childhood psychological abuse was associated with children's allergies. In summary, stressful maternal childhood experiences are associated with the development of wheeze and allergy in children. These findings emphasize the necessity of services aimed at lowering the stress of new mothers and the value of inquiring about early life experiences.

Robin Stine...Daydream...Sweet Blossom Records 2005
Ejazznews.com (Nov. 2005)
By John Gilbert
Sweetly swinging is the byword for Robin Stine. Stine has penned 12 originals with first class melodies and superb lyrics. The 13th tune is "Nature Boy" which is done in an unusual mode, but works nicely.
"Don't I Know" is a bluesy number that lopes along gracefully. Stine sings in tune and enunciates cleanly with no undo histrionics. Warren Bernhardt at the piano comps artfully which adds much to the overall effect.
"Sweet Blossom" Again Robin Stine shines brightly...Gary Burke on drums times out perfectly and boots this song along in fine fashion.
"Never Say Goodbye" Artfully crafted lyrics are refulgent in this composition.
"Shy Boy" The words are clever and the melody fits the message in a sensually sophisticated mode.
Robin Stine is a first class lyricist and songwriter whose vocal tonality and cadence make this album dance nicely in one's ear.

I Love Galaxian!!
I came across another excellent Galaxian remake called Carax. Like any Galaxian game, it keeps the adrenaline pumping and it has some new twists too! What's neat with this version is that it's a timed attack: you shoot as many Galaxians as you can during this time; every time you die, you loose 10 seconds but get to keep playing.
As if that isn't enough to stress you out, the kamikaze Galaxians also launch a whole bunch cruise missiles while attacking, so you not only have to dodge the ships but also the missiles.
Also different from the classic Galaxian is that you get to move your ship vertically too, which is really helpful when trying to outmaneuver those crazy ships and missiles. In classic Galaxian, you only could shoot one shot at a time but with this version, there are no such limits – shoot as much as you can!
The graphics are excellent and surprisingly, this great game is only 1.35 MB!

Hi all,
In light of a lack of recent sales, trying to gain momentum on FSJ, and because I just got back from holidays and feel like sharing the vibe, The Torment, The Shadow, The Heart will be available through Kindle and Smashwords for 99 cents until September 30 (Sept. 31st for those countries east of the International Date Line and west of Greenwich Mean Time).
Paperback copies are still 50% off on my CreateSpace store, and you can find the link on the Where To Buy page.
In other news, I'm behind schedule on the History of Talbadas posts, but am enacting my new writing plan as of today (been a long time coming, I know), so expect to see a History post soon - I'm just not going to put a date on it.
TSH has also gone in for editing, and I expect to have the results in before the end of the month. This will be for the upcoming 3rd Edition (which will feature a new cover). More words on release later, but will likely coincide with publishing Book 2.
That's all I have for now, no other plans in store. Looking forward to striking up with FSJ later tonight!
As always, have a good one,
T.M. Shannon
Quick Update: so I picked up from where I'd left off in FSJ, but so far have changed a total of ten words. Still, its a start for me, having let myself go these past few months!

The appendage of these facets in the crucifixion;
Petitions on a wet, black boulevard.
By Ezra Poundfalde
The News That Stays News, Reported Live
They catalogue the breakdown of Eliot's first marriage, the bewilderment and despair of two people who seemed unable to avoid destroying each other. We had not only Eliot's letters, but dozens of letters written by Vivien Haigh-Wood Eliot, Eliot's first wife - the hysterical Viv of Michael Hastings's play Tom and Viv. A second volume of letters would do much to reveal what really went on between them, and would, I feel sure, create sympathy for Eliot.I think WH Auden said, in his introduction to Shakespeare's Sonnets, that to read someone's letters when they're out of the room is an unacceptable invasion of privacy (obviously ... and then he adds that) It doesn't make a difference if they're out of the room because they've been dead for centuries. Auden (if he said it) and Valerie Eliot are right to insist that it's an invasion of T.S. Eliot's privacy to publish these letters. But the privacy of the dead counts for nothing. They benefit nothing from it.
My mother saw out of the kitchen window the Ocke and Keyes van arrive and opened it to hear what the man stepping out of it was saying.
"Mrs. M! I'm here for the inspection of the alarm system. All routine. I'm Mr. Ocke. I brought along some others to help. All routine, as I say."
Some men appeared around the van's corner. They looked like rugby players. They clustered behind Mr. Ocke randomly and didn't seem to know where to look. Their hands were big and hairy.
"Mr. Keyes would normally do it of course," said Mr. Ocke. "I'm more the back-office type in the firm. The name of the company was his idea, in fact. The pun, I'm not sure it works myself. He should have gone into business with John Locke. Ha ha. So if you'll just let us in."
My mother, quite rightly I felt, wasn't going to do that. She muttered something that I can't remember now, but it was reassuring. I was afraid of the men and I was relieved to see that my fear was shared by an adult. She went to the back door, held the handle, wedged her foot into the bottom crack and leant hard against the door's opaque glass. I wondered how easy it would be to smash the glab and drag her through and whether there'd be pieces left in the frame which would plough through her back.
Outside, one of the men's cell phones rang.
Agencies tasked with defending America from terrorism were among the top employers of workers with phony diplomas identified by the GAO. The Department of Defense employs 257 of them. Transportation has 17. Justice has 13; Homeland Security, 12; Treasury, eight.
And where Hill assaults modernity and its technological vocabulary he can lose that perfect control which marks his use of older and more obscure words: "World-webbed collusions, clouded diplomacies, | are lightning when they strike and strike us down" is a bit of mildly paranoid techno-speak which doesn't really come off. These moments are often marked by exaggerated uses of Hill's idiosyncratic punctuation. He likes to mark accents in his verse in order to register a surprising position of stress within a line, and often these marked stresses seem anxious, as though Hill just can't trust his readers to follow his sense without them. When he writes "Things won't change though there ís the Euro", the "is" really doesn't need to have an ictus marked over it for the sarcasm to be self-evident. Every so often, as Hill himself says, he can make "the lines of age too evident".What ís an íctus? That depends on what your defínítíon of ís is.
But these moments are infrequent in a collection which is full of passages that are sure products of a master, not just good, but great, who is creating in his late years a music of twilight. There are lines that float ("slow airs fluted on the inlaid grass"), and others that convey a beauty which is glimpsed out of the corner of the eye ("There goes a fox | like a swift perfect image of itself"). Scenes from Comus offers, in Hill's own phrase, "a grand and crabby music".
FP: Words of wisdom Mr. Hitchens, thank you. [You see what I mean about this guy being earnest...]
You include in your essay collection what I thought was one of your best masterpieces: 'Unfahrenheit 9/11: The Lies of Michael Moore.' In it you note that to describe his film 'as dishonest and demagogic would almost be to promote those terms to the level of respectability.' To be sure, as you demonstrate, Fahrenheit 9/11 is a work of shameless lies and deceit. I think it serves as a perfect reflection of the psyche of the contemporary Left. Hating Bush and America has become an obsessive priority and everything else – including truth – has become expendable.
Tell us a few of your thoughts on Moore and his film and in what ways you think both reflect the psychology of the contemporary Left (if you think they do).
Hitchens: I have to say that I love it when you say "one of my best masterpieces".
Believe it or not, it's because I decided, a few years ago, to grow my hair long. If you look at the author photo on my last book, "The Tipping Point," you'll see that it used to be cut very short and conservatively. But, on a whim, I let it grow wild, as it had been when I was teenager. Immediately, in very small but significant ways, my life changed. I started getting speeding tickets all the time--and I had never gotten any before. I started getting pulled out of airport security lines for special attention. And one day, while walking along 14th Street in downtown Manhattan, a police van pulled up on the sidewalk, and three officers jumped out. They were looking, it turned out, for a rapist, and the rapist, they said, looked a lot like me. They pulled out the sketch and the description. I looked at it, and pointed out to them as nicely as I could that in fact the rapist looked nothing at all like me. He was much taller, and much heavier, and about fifteen years younger (and, I added, in a largely futile attempt at humor, not nearly as good-looking.) All we had in common was a large head of curly hair. After twenty minutes or so, the officers finally agreed with me, and let me go. On a scale of things, I realize this was a trivial misunderstanding. African-Americans in the United State suffer indignities far worse than this all the time. But what struck me was how even more subtle and absurd the stereotyping was in my case: this wasn't about something really obvious like skin color, or age, or height, or weight. It was just about hair.Given how short his hair was, I figured that it couldn't be that long. I was thrilled to discover that
The Fish, The Man, and the SpiritSuch astonishing lines and phrases! Who has the cojones to use -oggles in a tripartate rhyme these days? I imagine Bob Dylan coud. I'm not sure that he would. Check out these verblessly evocative phrases again:
To a fish
You strange, astonished-looking, angle-faced,
Dreary-mouthed, gaping wretches of the sea,
Gulping sea-water everlastingly,
Cold-blooded, though with red your blood be graced,
And mute, though dwellers: in the roaring waste;
And you, all shapes besides, that fishy be,
Some round some flat, some long, all devilrey,
Legless, unloving, infamously chaste:
O scaly, slippery, wet, swift, taring whights,
What is't ye do? What life lead? eh, dull gogles?
How do you vary your vile days and nights?
How pass your Sundays? Are ye still but joggles
In ceaseless wash? Still nought but gapes, and bites,
And drinks, and stares, diversified with boggles?
A fish answers
Amazing monster! that, for aught I know,
With the first sight of thee didst make our race
For ever stare! O flat and shocking face
Grimly divided from the breast below!
Thou that on dry land horribly dost go
With a split body and most ridiculous pace,
Prong after prong, disgracer of all grace,
Long-useless-finned, hairy, upright, unwet, slow!
O breather of unbreathable, sword-sharp air,
How canst exist? How bear thyself, thou dry
And dreary sloth? What particle canst share
Of the only blessed life, the watery?
I sometimes see of ye an actual pair
Go by! linked fin by fin! most odiously.
The spirit
Indulge thy smiling scorm, if smiling still,
O man! and loathe, but with a sort of love;
For difference must its use by difference prove,
And, in sweet clang, the spheres with music fill.
One of the spirits am I, that at his will
Live in whate'er has life - fish, eagle, dove -
No hate, no pride, beneath nought, nor above,
A visitor of the rounds of God's sweet skill.
Man's life is warm, glad, sad, 'twixt loves and graves,
Boundless in hope, honoured with pangs austere,
Heaven-grazing; and his angel-wings he craves :
The fish is swift, small-needing, vague yet clear,
A cold, sweet, silver life, wrapped in round waves,
Quickened with touches of transporting fear.
A cold, sweet, silver life, wrapped in round wavesHere's a poem that dares to be bad, but isn't. "In sweet clang" sounds like Vogon poetry, but in this poem, is part of the flow of bizarrely rhyming and bubbling adjectives and nouns, which, to me, echos the words and voices that you can swear you just heard in the ripples of streams and oceans waves, but which disappear when you stop to listen for them. It reminds me of Joyce walking over to the Seine and contentedly affirming that his just-completed chapter of Finnegans Wake did, as intended, sound like water.
Are ye still but joggles/In ceaseless wash?
disgracer of all grace
Legless, unloving, infamously chaste
BUBBLING UNDER: YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS TO WATCH. Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs, Apple Computer Company. Their chicken-in-every-pot belief in the 'personal computer,' a high-tech gizmo for use in the home rather than the lab, may sound like something straight out of Arthur C. Clarke, but these two young Californians aren't to be dismissed—especially the excitable Jobs. 'I mean, look at this thing, it's insanely great!' he says, running his fingers over the keyboard of what he and Wozniak call the Apple I. The more taciturn Wozniak, his beard flecked with Frito crumbles, beavers away on their latest creation, the Apple II, which, he promises, will have color graphics and the ability to store data on tape cassettes. With a planned $1,300 retail price, the Apple II isn't likely to catch on like the CB radio, but, buttressed by Jobs's chutzpah alone, Apple just might make a name for itself down the line.
So what is the secret to happiness? The first step, says Veenhoven, is to live in the right place. Step forward Denmark, Switzerland and Malta, currently the happiest countries in the world, with scores of eight out of 10. Iceland and Ireland would also be very good choices, coming in at joint second with 7.8. You may also want to consider upping sticks to Ghana, a surprise entry at number three with 7.7. Canada, Guatemala, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Sweden are having a gay old time at joint fourth with 7.6. Finland and Mexico follow gleefully at joint fifth, with 7.5.(From The Independent)
'Happy countries are, typically, rich countries,' explains Veenhoven. 'They are, typically, countries with a lot of freedom, often well-governed and democratic, and they tend to be tolerant. Switzerland, for example, is one of the most democratic countries in the world, with a referendum system that varies from canton to canton.'
How does he explain the presence of Ghana, Guatemala and Mexico in the top five, none of which is exactly known for its perfect democracy or high GDP? 'Maybe the data for Ghana is somewhat inflated because sampling is not perfect there. But Latin American countries tend to be happier than you would expect them to be. We don't know why that is.'
There can be no doubt that Susan Sontag, the doyenne of (to use Tom Wolfe's apposite coinage) radical chic, commanded rare celebrity throughout the 1960s and 1970s. Accordingly, her influence in those decades and beyond was great. The question is, was it a beneficent or a baneful influence? Sontag has been celebrated as a towering intellectual. In fact, though, what she offered were not so much arguments or insights as the simulacra of arguments and the mood or emotion of insights. [...]When I first read this, i thought it was a fantastic hatchet job. But, really, this prose is nothing like a hatchet. It's a gamma knife job, cold and precise. Hachets, on the other hand, require maximum effective if they're used. Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. Hatchets are almost lowest form of weapon. Watch this British hack in action:
Not that Sontag's efforts were unanimously praised. The critic John Simon, to take just one example, wondered in a sharp letter to Partisan Review whether Sontag's "Notes on `Camp'" was itself "only a piece of `camp.'" No, the important things were the attentiveness, speed, and intensity of the response. Pro or con, Sontag's essays galvanized debate: indeed, they contributed mightily to changing the very climate of intellectual debate. Her demand, at the end of "Against Interpretation," that "in place of a hermeneutics we need an erotics of art"; her praise of camp, the "whole point" of which "is to dethrone the serious"; her encomium to the "new sensibility" of the Sixties, whose acolytes, she observed, "have broken, whether they know it or not, with the Matthew Arnold notion of culture, finding it historically and humanly obsolescent": in these and other such pronouncements Sontag offered not arguments but a mood, a tone, an atmosphere.
Never mind that a lot of it was literally nonsense: it was nevertheless irresistible nonsense. It somehow didn't matter, for example, that the whole notion of "an erotics of art" was ridiculous. Everyone likes sex, and talking about "erotics" seems so much sexier than talking about "sex"; and of course everyone likes art: How was it that no one had thought of putting them together in this clever way before? Who would bother with something so boring as mere "interpretation"--which, Sontag had suggested, was these days "reactionary, impertinent, cowardly, stifling," "the revenge of the intellect upon art"--when we could have (or pretend to have) an erotics instead? [...]
One of Sontag's great gifts has been her ability to enlist her politics in the service of her aestheticism. For her, it is the work of a moment to move from admiring pornography--or at least "the pornographic imagination"--to castigating American capitalism. Accordingly, toward the end of her essay she speaks ofthe traumatic failure of capitalist society to provide authentic outlets for the perennial human flair for high-temperature visionary obsession, to satisfy the appetite for exalted self-transcending modes of concentration and seriousness. The need of human beings to transcend "the person" is no less profound than the need to be a person, an individual.
"The Pornographic Imagination," like most of Sontag's essays, is full of powerful phrases, seductive insights, and extraordinary balderdash. Sontag dilates on pornography's "peculiar access to some truth." What she doesn't say is that The Story of O (for example) presents not an instance of mystical fulfillment but a graphic depiction of human degradation. Only someone who had allowed "form" to triumph over "content" could have ignored this.
Beware the epigramista. Beneath the veneer of apparent profundity of the epigram's internal contradiction, there is usually a deep well of meaninglessness, from which other intellectuals can extract similarly worthless academic baubles. The foremost proponent of the apparently profound but actually worthless epigram was Oscar Wilde – as in "All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That's his."Stuff like this is simultaneously untoppable and unbottomable.
Haw haw haw. Dashed good, that, what? Only it isn't. It's flummery coated with a cheap and not very clever glitter. And such epigrams were what Sontag specialised in. Interpretation, she said, was "the revenge of the intellect upon art. Even more. It is the revenge of the intellect upon the world".
[...]would that someone had treated Sontag in life as Dr Johnson had disposed of Bishop Berkeley's contention that objects only exist because we see them: kicking a stone till he bounced off it, he snarled, "I refute it thus."
I ran into her once, and my abject failure to give her the Johnson refutation haunts me still. Indeed, it might well be my greatest single delinquency, in a far from blameless life. It was in Sarajevo, during the siege in 1993, and she had arrived to stage a Bosnian version of Waiting for Godot. [...]
By my personal reckoning, the performance lasted as long as the siege itself. It was mesmerisingly precious and hideously self-indulgent. [...]
Meanwhile she ostentatiously disdained us hacks even as she sedulously courted us. It was a grotesque performance. My real mistake was not radioing her co-ordinates to the Serb artillery, reporting that they marked the location of Bosnian heavy armour. My own life would have been a cheap price to pay.[...]
But wretched, credulous, self-hating American academia wanted to fawn on an intellectual whom popular culture could celebrate, and it chose Sontag and her vapid aphorisms. "The camera makes everyone a tourist in other people's reality, and eventually in one's own;" or: "What pornography is really about, ultimately, isn't sex but death;" or: "Sanity is a cosy lie;" or: "Good health is the passing delusion of the doomed."
Well, actually, the last one is mine.[...]
Yet Susan Sontag, the ridiculous heroine of US campus culture, couldn't even count to three: "The two pioneering forces of modern sensibility are Jewish seriousness and homosexual aestheticism and irony."
What's it to be, Susie babe? Jewish seriousness? Homosexual aestheticism? Or homosexual irony? But hey, what about Jewish irony? Or Jewish aestheticism? Or homosexual seriousness?[...] I am left with the melancholy reflection, that yes, once I had my chance – and I bloody well blew it.
At length, one morning, Oliver obtained the permission he had so eagerly sought. There had been no handkerchiefs to work upon, for two or three days, and the dinners had been rather meagre. Perhaps these were reasons for the old gentleman's giving his assent; but, whether they were or no, he told Oliver he might go, and placed him under the joint guardianship of Charley Bates, and his friend the Dodger.
The three boys sallied out; the Dodger with his coat-sleeves tucked up, and his hat cocked, as usual; Master Bates sauntering along with his hands in his pockets; and Oliver between them, wondering where they were going, and what branch of manufacture he would be instructed in, first.
The pace at which they went, was such a very lazy, ill-looking saunter, that Oliver soon began to think his companions were going to deceive the old gentleman, by not going to work at all. The Dodger had a vicious propensity, too, of pulling the caps from the heads of small boys and tossing them down areas; while Charley Bates exhibited some very loose notions concerning the rights of property, by pilfering divers apples and onions from the stalls at the kennel sides, and thrusting them into pockets which were so surprisingly capacious, that they seemed to undermine his whole suit of clothes in every direction. These things looked so bad, that Oliver was on the point of declaring his intention of seeking his way back, in the best way he could; when his thoughts were suddenly directed into another channel, by a very mysterious change of behaviour on the part of the Dodger.
They were just emerging from a narrow court not far from the open square in Clerkenwell, which is yet called, by some strange perversion of terms, "The Green:" when the Dodger made a sudden stop; and, laying his finger on his lip, drew his companions back again, with the greatest caution and circumspection.
"What's the matter?" demanded Oliver.
"Hush!" replied the Dodger. "Do you see that old cove at the book-stall?"
"The old gentleman over the way?" said Oliver. "Yes, I see him."
"He'll do," said the Dodger.
"A prime plant," observed Master Charley Bates.
Oliver looked from one to the other, with the greatest surprise; but he was not permitted to make any inquiries; for the two boys walked stealthily across the road, and slunk close behind the old gentleman towards whom his attention had been directed. Oliver walked a few paces after them; and, not knowing whether to advance or retire, stood looking on in silent amazement.
The old gentleman was a very respectable-looking personage, with a powdered head and gold spectacles. He was dressed in a bottle-green coat with a black velvet collar; wore white trousers; and carried a smart bamboo cane under his arm. He had taken up a book from the stall, and there he stood, reading away, as hard as if he were in his elbow-chair, in his own study. It is very possible that he fancied himself there, indeed; for it was plain, from is abstraction, that he saw not the book-stall, nor the street, nor the boys, nor, in short, anything but the book itself: which he was reading straight through: turning over the leaf when he got to the bottom of a page, beginning at the top line of the next one, and going regularly on, with the greatest interest and eagerness.
What was Oliver's horror and alarm as he stood a few paces off, looking on with his eyelids as wide open as they would possibly go, to see the Dodger plunge his hand into the old gentleman's pocket, and draw from thence a handkerchief! To see him hand the same to Charley Bates; and finally to behold them, both, running away round the corner at full speed.
In an instant the whole mystery of the handkerchiefs, and the watches, and the jewels, and the Jew, rushed upon the boy's mind. He stood, for a moment, with the blood so tingling through all his veins from terror, that he felt as if he were in a burning fire; then, confused and frightened, he took to his heels; and, not knowing what he did, made off as fast as he could lay his feet to the ground.
This was all done in a minute's space. In the very instant when Oliver began to run, the old gentleman, putting his hand to his pocket, and missing his handkerchief, turned sharp round. Seeing the boy scudding away at such a rapid pace, he very naturally concluded him to be the depredator; and, shouting "Stop thief!" with all his might, made off after him, book in hand.
But the old gentleman was not the only person who raised the hue-and-cry. The Dodger and Master Bates, unwilling to attract public attention by running down the open street, had merely retired into the very first doorway round the corner. They no sooner heard the cry, and saw Oliver running, than, guessing exactly how the matter stood, they issued forth with great promptitude; and, shouting "Stop thief!" too, joined in the pursuit like good citizens.
Although Oliver had been brought up by philosophers, he was not theoretically acquainted with the beautiful axiom that self-preservation is the first law of nature. If he had been, perhaps he would have been prepared for this. Not being prepared, however, it alarmed him the more; so away he went like the wind, with the old gentleman and the two boys roaring and shouting behind him.
"Stop thief! Stop thief!" There is a magic in the sound. The tradesman leaves his counter, and the carman his waggon; the butcher throws down his tray; the baker his basket; the milkman his pail; the errand-boy his parcels; the schoolboy his marbles; the paviour his pickaxe; the child his battledore. Away they run, pell-mell, helter-skelter, slap-dash: tearing, yelling, screaming, knocking down the passengers as they turn the corners, rousing up the dogs, and astonishing the fowls: and streets, squares, and courts, re-echo with the sound.
"Stop thief! Stop thief!" The cry is taken up by a hundred voices, and the crowd accumulate at every turning. Away they fly, splashing through the mud, and rattling along the pavements: up go the windows, out run the people,
"Stop thief! Stop thief!" There is a passion for hunting something deeply implanted in the human breast. One wretched breathless child, panting with exhaustion; terror in his looks; agony in his eyes; large drops of perspiration streaming down his face; strains every nerve to make head upon his pursuers; and as they follow on his track, and gain upon him every instant, they hail his decreasing strength with still louder shouts, and whoop and scream with joy. "Stop thief!" Ay, stop him for God's sake, were it only in mercy!
Stopped at last! A clever blow. He is down upon the pavement; and the crowd eagerly gather round him: each new comer, jostling and struggling with the others to catch a glimpse. "Stand aside!" "Give him a little air!" "Nonsense! he don't deserve it!" "Where's the gentleman?" "Here he is, coming down the street." "Make room there for the gentleman!" "Is this the boy, sir!" "Yes."
Oliver lay, covered with mud and dust, and bleeding from the mouth, looking wildly round upon the heap of faces that surrounded him, when the old gentleman was officiously dragged and pushed into the circle by the foremost of the pursuers.
"Yes," said the gentleman, "I am afraid it is the boy."
"Afraid!" murmured the crowd. "That's a good un!"
"Poor fellow!" said the gentleman, "he has hurt himself."
"I did that, sir," said a great lubberly fellow, stepping forward; "and preciously I cut my knuckle agin' his mouth. I stopped him, sir."
The fellow touched his hat with a grin, expecting something for his pains; but, the old gentleman, eyeing him with an expression of dislike, looked anxiously round, as if he contemplated running away himself: which it is very possible
he might have attempted to do, and thus have afforded another chase, had not a police officer (who is generally the last person to arrive in such cases) at that moment made his way through the crowd, and seized Oliver by the collar.
"Come, get up," said the man, roughly.
"It wasn't me indeed, sir. Indeed, indeed, it was two other boys," said Oliver, clasping his hands passionately, and looking round. "They are here somewhere."
"Oh no, they ain't," said the officer. He meant this to be ironical, but it was true besides; for the Dodger and Charley Bates had filed off down the first convenient court they came to. "Come, get up!"
"Don't hurt him," said the old gentleman, compassionately.
"Oh no, I won't hurt him," replied the officer, tearing his jacket half off his back, in proof thereof. "Come, I know you; it won't do. Will you stand upon your legs, you young devil?"
Oliver, who could hardly stand, made a shift to raise himself on his feet, and was at once lugged along the streets by the jacket-collar, at a rapid pace. The gentleman walked on with them by the officer's side; and as many of the crowd as could achieve the feat, got a little a-head, and stared back at Oliver from time to time. The boys shouted in triumph; and on they went.
