Special time of grace
The priestly vocation is a great mystery between God who calls and the man who is called, and that is only understood from the point of view of faith.
God, in His infinite love and desire for salvation, has wanted each person to be a participant of His great plan. To save us, God has wanted to use our smallness and thus reveal His greatness through this great divine and human friendship.
In the Old Testament, it is revealed to us that, in his unceasing search for us, God promises a savior. When the fullness of time arrives, God sends the angel Gabriel to a small region of the world called Nazareth, and in His greeting to that virgin maiden, proposes the great work that the world had never imagined. God was to be born from the human race, so that we would unite with Him and thus redeem our misery.
This great divine feat reveals what we celebrate during Advent: God who always comes, God who always seeks, and God who always wants to save us. And in this desire to save us, God continues to invite the human being to participate in His blessed plan of salvation.
The call to the priesthood of Jesus Christ is closely linked to God's intention to save us. Just as He did in the past, God calls specific men today so that in His name they may be fruitful and offer their brothers and sisters this gift of salvation. He calls these men so that Emmanuel is born in their hearts and their lives can spark the growth of new life in Christ for others.
Despite his smallness, the priest gives the life of grace to those who approach him in search of God's greatness to be reconciled and forgiven at the sacrament of confession. Through the priest's humble and limited hands, God becomes the food of eternal life in the celebration of the sacrifice of the Mass. This is how in the smallness of the priestly life, God does His magnificent work of bringing His greatness to men and saving them.
In Nazareth, that sublime invitation was given to the young woman who would be the Mother of the Creator, and in our time that invitation is heard in the heart of the young man who listens and discerns, "Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men" (Matt. 4:19).
May this Advent, a special time of grace, be for those who perceive within them the call of God, a time of listening, a time of preparation, and a time of response. In the same way that the blessed maiden responded to the sublime voice of God, young men today can respond with generosity, "Let it be done to me according to Your word" (Luke 1:38).
Lord, give us priests according to Your heart.

Ticket To Ride: Europe (Standalone Expansion)
Ticket to Ride: Europe takes you on a new train adventure across Europe. From Edinburgh to Constantinople and from Lisbon to Moscow, you'll visit great cities of turn-of-the-century Europe. Like the original Ticket to Ride, the game remains elegantly simple, can be learned in 5 minutes, and appeals to both families and experienced gamers. Ticket to Ride: Europe is a complete, new game and does not require the original version.
More than just a new map, Ticket to Ride: Europe features brand new gameplay elements. Tunnels may require you to pay extra cards to build on them, Ferries require locomotive cards in order to claim them, and Stations allow you to sacrifice a few points in order to use an opponent's route to connect yours. The game also includes larger format cards and Train Station game pieces.
The overall goal remains the same: collect and play train cards in order to place your pieces on the board, attempting to connect cities on your ticket cards. Points are earned both from placing trains and completing tickets but uncompleted tickets lose you points. The player who has the most points at the end of the game wins.

Many of the first time casino goers want to learn how to win on a obor138 machine. Over the years, playing in slots has become very popular all over the world. It is fun and very simple to play with. When you know the right strategies, you can really win big. The excitement that you will feel when you win is priceless. Fun and money are the main reasons why people love to play slots. When you press the buttons and pull the handles, your heart will start to pump and the anticipation to win a jackpot begins. The experience can be addictive because when you win, you will have the tendency to want to win more.
There are many ways to gain so much money when you win in slots. Different players know different techniques and strategies. The best way to get high chances in winning is to go to the right location. Most of the best slot machines in the casinos can be found in common locations. Your first task is to identify which of the slot machines are the best in terms of giving payouts.
The common notion that slot machines have the same odds of winning is a myth. As a matter of fact, casinos around the world assign better machines in strategic locations. These machines are programmed to provide easy chances of winning fat jackpots to the players. As a player who would want to win big, the challenge of finding these machines is yours. If you want to know how to win on a slot machine, here are some useful tips:
The best machines are called the "hot slots" and the bad ones are called "cold slots". So that you can win big, must first know where the cold slots are and avoid them. Most of the time, cold slots are location in near the entrance. Machines that are good in payouts are not usually placed in entrances because that will disable people to go around the casinos to play other games. That is why avoid slot machines near the entrances. You should also avoid slot machines which are located near the tables for poker, blackjack, roulette, and other casino games. Machines near these table games are expected to be cold slots.
Now, in locating the "hot slots", the first thing to do is to try and play in small amounts in the machines which are near the winning claims booth. Machines which are good in payouts are usually place near this area so that people will hear winning cheers and get attracted to play more. Another tip would be to choose a slot machine in areas where foods are sold. These machines are most likely to be "hot slots".
The most important tip that you should remember is to avoid machines that are next to known "hot slots". Casinos do not place two best machines adjacent to each other. Knowing which of the machines are "hot slots" or "cold slots" before playing in big amounts is a good technique on how to win on a slot machine.

Massive Fish Kill Reported Off Louisiana
Just yesterday, we were bringing you news of new oil ashore in Lousiana. Today, there's word of a new fish kill:
Plaquemines Parish officials have asked state wildlife officials to investigate what they said is a massive fish kill at Bayou Chaland on the west side of the Mississippi River late Friday. […]
The fish kill was reported to the Louisiana Department of Wildlife & Fisheries and the cause has not yet been determined, the parish said. The fish were found in an area that has been impacted by the oil from the BP oil spill, the parish said.
The dead fish include pogies, redfish, drum, crabs, shrimp and freshwater eel, the parish said.

In the first form, often referred to as a "string eval", the return value of EXPR is parsed and executed as if it were a little Perl program. The value of the expression (which is itself determined within scalar context) is first parsed, and if there were no errors, executed as a block within the lexical context of the current Perl program. This means, that in particular, any outer lexical variables are visible to it, and any package variable settings or subroutine and format definitions remain afterwards.
Note that the value is parsed every time the eval
executes. If EXPR is omitted, evaluates $_
. This form is typically used to delay parsing and subsequent execution of the text of EXPR until run time.
If the "unicode_eval"
feature is enabled (which is the default under a use 5.16
or higher declaration), EXPR or $_
is treated as a string of characters, so use utf8
declarations have no effect, and source filters are forbidden. In the absence of the "unicode_eval"
feature, will sometimes be treated as characters and sometimes as bytes, depending on the internal encoding, and source filters activated within the eval
exhibit the erratic, but historical, behaviour of affecting some outer file scope that is still compiling. See also the evalbytes
operator, which always treats its input as a byte stream and works properly with source filters, and the feature pragma.
Problems can arise if the string expands a scalar containing a floating point number. That scalar can expand to letters, such as "NaN"
or "Infinity"
; or, within the scope of a use locale
, the decimal point character may be something other than a dot (such as a comma). None of these are likely to parse as you are likely expecting.
In the second form, the code within the BLOCK is parsed only once--at the same time the code surrounding the eval
itself was parsed--and executed within the context of the current Perl program. This form is typically used to trap exceptions more efficiently than the first (see below), while also providing the benefit of checking the code within BLOCK at compile time.
The final semicolon, if any, may be omitted from the value of EXPR or within the BLOCK.
In both forms, the value returned is the value of the last expression evaluated inside the mini-program; a return statement may be also used, just as with subroutines. The expression providing the return value is evaluated in void, scalar, or list context, depending on the context of the eval
itself. See wantarray
for more on how the evaluation context can be determined.
If there is a syntax error or runtime error, or a die
statement is executed, eval
returns undef
in scalar context or an empty list in list context, and $@
is set to the error message. (Prior to 5.16, a bug caused undef
to be returned in list context for syntax errors, but not for runtime errors.) If there was no error, $@
is set to the empty string. A control flow operator like last
or goto
can bypass the setting of $@
. Beware that using eval
neither silences Perl from printing warnings to STDERR, nor does it stuff the text of warning messages into $@
. To do either of those, you have to use the $SIG{__WARN__}
facility, or turn off warnings inside the BLOCK or EXPR using no warnings 'all'
. See warn
, perlvar, and warnings.
Note that, because eval
traps otherwise-fatal errors, it is useful for determining whether a particular feature (such as socket
or symlink
) is implemented. It is also Perl's exception-trapping mechanism, where the die
operator is used to raise exceptions.
If you want to trap errors when loading an XS module, some problems with the binary interface (such as Perl version skew) may be fatal even with eval
unless $ENV{PERL_DL_NONLAZY}
is set. See perlrun.
If the code to be executed doesn't vary, you may use the eval-BLOCK form to trap run-time errors without incurring the penalty of recompiling each time. The error, if any, is still returned in $@
. Examples:
# make divide-by-zero nonfatal
eval { $answer = $a / $b; }; warn $@ if $@;
# same thing, but less efficient
eval '$answer = $a / $b'; warn $@ if $@;
# a compile-time error
eval { $answer = }; # WRONG
# a run-time error
eval '$answer ='; # sets $@
Using the eval {}
form as an exception trap in libraries does have some issues. Due to the current arguably broken state of __DIE__
hooks, you may wish not to trigger any __DIE__
hooks that user code may have installed. You can use the local $SIG{__DIE__}
construct for this purpose, as this example shows:
# a private exception trap for divide-by-zero
eval { local $SIG{'__DIE__'}; $answer = $a / $b; };
warn $@ if $@;
This is especially significant, given that __DIE__
hooks can call die
again, which has the effect of changing their error messages:
# __DIE__ hooks may modify error messages
local $SIG{'__DIE__'} =
sub { (my $x = $_[0]) =~ s/foo/bar/g; die $x };
eval { die "foo lives here" };
print $@ if $@; # prints "bar lives here"
Because this promotes action at a distance, this counterintuitive behavior may be fixed in a future release.
With an eval
, you should be especially careful to remember what's being looked at when:
eval $x; # CASE 1
eval "$x"; # CASE 2
eval '$x'; # CASE 3
eval { $x }; # CASE 4
eval "\$$x++"; # CASE 5
$$x++; # CASE 6
Cases 1 and 2 above behave identically: they run the code contained in the variable $x. (Although case 2 has misleading double quotes making the reader wonder what else might be happening (nothing is).) Cases 3 and 4 likewise behave in the same way: they run the code '$x'
, which does nothing but return the value of $x. (Case 4 is preferred for purely visual reasons, but it also has the advantage of compiling at compile-time instead of at run-time.) Case 5 is a place where normally you would like to use double quotes, except that in this particular situation, you can just use symbolic references instead, as in case 6.
Before Perl 5.14, the assignment to $@
occurred before restoration of localized variables, which means that for your code to run on older versions, a temporary is required if you want to mask some but not all errors:
# alter $@ on nefarious repugnancy only
my $e;
local $@; # protect existing $@
eval { test_repugnancy() };
# $@ =~ /nefarious/ and die $@; # Perl 5.14 and higher only
$@ =~ /nefarious/ and $e = $@;
die $e if defined $e
eval BLOCK
does not count as a loop, so the loop control statements next
, last
, or redo
cannot be used to leave or restart the block.
An eval ''
executed within a subroutine defined in the DB
package doesn't see the usual surrounding lexical scope, but rather the scope of the first non-DB piece of code that called it. You don't normally need to worry about this unless you are writing a Perl debugger.

Teacher Education Master Programs in Rhode Island
Ready to learn what Masters in Teacher Education Programs have to offer you? From improving teaching methods, and understanding the policies and attitudes of a top professional teacher, to bringing more versatility to your career, Teacher Education Masters Degree Programs offer many possibilities to explore.
Masters in Teacher Education near Rhode Island
If you already have your initial teaching license, you may be ready to combine your love of teaching with an enjoyment of art, music, reading, science or even physical education. Or, you may be required by your state to have a master's degree in education. In either case, earning a graduate degree has the potential to result in licensure renewal, possible salary boost, and a broader level of expertise in teaching best practices. Read on to take a look inside a Masters Program for teachers.
Masters in Teacher Education Degree Program Essentials
First of all, there are different models for Teacher education Programs, depending on whether you are:
- An aspiring teacher
- Looking for initial teacher licensure
- An experienced teacher
You will probably find that graduate teacher education programs are tailored to the mid-career or working educator, and that the programs for initial licensure are for non-teachers who hold a Bachelor's degree in another subject and aspire to teach.
written by Rana Waxman
FUN FACT: Some states require high school teachers to earn a master's degree after earning their teaching certification (bls.gov).
How Long is a Masters in Teacher Education Program?
Earning a Masters degree in Education may take between 2 and 3 years to complete, although this may differ with online degree programs. You might find some online Master's degrees that might be earned in as few as 12 to 18 months. It is always a good idea to request information from the grad school you are considering, especially since each program may have unique prerequisites to fulfill prior to enrollment, or vary depending on whether you are a full or part-time student. Curious about different the different types of masters for teachers?
Different Masters in Teacher Education Degrees in Rhode Island
There are different types of Masters degrees in education, the Master of Arts, Masters of Education and the Masters of Science. How do you choose from the different masters in teacher education programs?
The Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) degree is usually geared for initial teacher licensure and may emphasize practical teaching skills and on teaching specific subjects. This type of program really focuses on advancement of your teaching career; learning pedagogical theory and hands-on implementation.
The Masters in Education (M.Ed) degree is different, and designed for experienced educators. It usually provides more in-depth instruction aimed at preparing teachers for new leadership roles. If you are a certified teacher, or an aspiring teacher you may still continue teaching in the classroom, or pursue a major that takes you into another area (Curriculum and instruction, counselor education or educational administration for instance).
Master of Arts in Education degree programs focus on in-classroom teaching, and students often choose an area to concentrate on
Master of Science in education degree programs might be a great fit if you are keen on educational research.
Finding the 'right' Masters in Teacher Education Program: Tips
Choosing a graduate teacher education program may seem daunting, but if you go about it systematically, you can simplify things for yourself. A helpful resource might be Teach.org as well as requesting information from prospective colleges and universities.
Graduate schools with Teacher Education Graduate Masters Programs in Rhode Island
Choose a Program Format: On-Campus or Online?
First of all, with the choices out there, do you want a distance learning program or do you prefer the social learning environment of a real classroom? Online teacher education programs may suit working teachers trying to balance work in the day with study in evenings and on weekends. But, don't assume that all campus programs are during the day. Masters programs for teachers may be offered during times that it is convenient to attend as well.
Sometimes one format makes most sense to you, whether it is just easier to do your courses online, or just more motivating to be onsite. In either case, you can use these criteria to search on GradSchools.com. In fact, you can narrow things down with a location search – use the city, state, or country tabs to filter results for graduate schools in a specific area.
Which Concentration Interests You?
From the subject selection, you can see that there are plenty of opportunities to refine your teaching skills in different areas, such as masters in physical education, teaching art, teaching science or even teaching English as a second language. Some of the other listings you might encounter could include: MSEd in Literacy, Masters in Reading Education, Master of Natural Sciences Education or Master of Art and Design Education.
DID YOU KNOW? Some states require middle school teachers to earn a master's degree after receiving their teaching certification. (bls.gov)
Check Each Teacher Education Program For Their Curriculum
Broadly speaking, masters programs for teachers might include some common themes. Best to check with each graduate school, and measure their curriculum with your own goals. Some of the components of your curriculum might include topics such as:
- Foundational Knowledge (philosophy and history or education)
- Educational Psychology
- Sociology of Education
- Skills for assessing student-learning
- Content-area/methods/skills related to your subject (art, music, math)
- Practice in classroom
- Supervised field observations
- Student teaching
- Internship
Licenses, Certifications, Registrations for Teaching Professionals
It is really important to check with the state you plan to teach in since certification and licensing varies. Here are a few things to bear in mind:
- Typically to receive certification a period of fieldwork or student teaching is required.
- Some states require teachers to complete annual professional development courses to maintain their license
- Requirements may vary depending on the school system: public or private
Potential Career Paths
To a certain extent, the more you learn the more you are able to teach. Some states do require teachers to hold a master's degree, so the degree may be associated with new opportunities although not a guarantee of employment. Potential career paths for graduates with masters in teacher education degrees might include:
- Post-secondary Teachers (at community colleges)
- Middle School Teachers
- Kindergarten Teacher
- Elementary School Teacher
- High School Teacher

BIOGRAPHY - Charles Emile Jacque (1813 - 1894)
As a member of the Barbizon group, a group of artists whose imagery focused on the depiction of the natural landscape and animals, Charles-Émile Jacque represents the accomplishments of an artist who made his most important mark with his engravings, etchings and lithographs. Throughout his career Jacque submitted regularly to the French salons and also at provincial and international exhibitions in Bordeaux, Lyon, Pau, Châlon-sur-Saône, Munich, London, and even Budapest. His work contributed to the reappraisal of the importance of the print in a time and society dominated by painting.
Charles-Émile Jacque was born May 23rd, 1813 in Paris. At around twelve years of age he was placed in school in the Marais and worked under a notary shortly thereafter. At seventeen he was apprenticed to a cartographer, but having already shown a liking for drawing, his menial task of tracing simple lines from one point to another only caused frustration. Other accounts suggest that he copied lithographs or worked with his uncle who painted chimney fronts. Whatever the case may have been, none of these opportunities gave him proper training in art, in sharp contrast to many other men his age who were already engaged in artistic training at an atelier or at the École des Beaux-Arts. His only true artistic training was around 1840 when he worked in the atelier Suisse, an informal studio which provided models but no instruction, also where Gustave Courbet - who would become a major force behind the Realist movement - worked for a short period of time. Jacque remained largely self-taught and thus self-inspired, which may have been a benefit to his style as he learned to rely on his own methods of representation and not that of a teacher. This lack of extensive artistic training would, however, prohibit him from immediately establishing a career and which may also have affected his choice of medium, as the graphic arts were less expensive and certainly a less prestigious way of launching a career than one in painting.
Apart from a lack of extensive preliminary training, the debut of his artistic career was also hampered by his military service. Often, young men were willing and able to pay for a replacement to serve in their stead, but as his father was not a wealthy man, Jacque was obligated to enlist; a duty that would occupy seven years of his life. During this period he made many sketches of army life and sold small drawings for a franc a piece. He would also later draw from this experience in the military with his many illustrations and caricatures for Parisian journals. Upon completion of his military service in 1838, Jacque quickly began executing his first graphic prints: La Lanterne Magique by Frédéric Soulié, which was inspired by the Napoleonic legend, Vicaire de Wakefield by Oliver Goldsmith, and Chaumière Indienne by Bernardin de Saint-Pierre. Later that year he journeyed to England, drawn to their well-practiced technique of woodcut engraving. During his almost two year period in England he worked as an illustrator for books and journals; producing complete illustrations of The Dance of Death, and a pictorial edition of a Shakespearian play, among many others. Jacque returned to Paris in 1840 with a broader knowledge of printmaking and began a period of intense work in the graphic arts, acting as both an illustrator and caricaturist. At the end of the 1830s, Jacque had become one of the earliest artists to renew the technique of etching, placing him at a definitive position as a forerunner of the etching revival which would come to full fruition beginning in the 1860s with the organization of the Société des Aquafortistes, of which Jacque was a member.
These illustrations and caricatures were the beginning of Jacque's artistic career and even though he received meager pay, working in printmaking did offer an aspiring artist - without substantial training - a means by which to earn a living and possibly enter the art world. His interest extended beyond the arts to medicine and alongside other artists of the period such as Honoré Daumier and Paul Gavarni, Jacque poked fun at the doctors and their strange and misunderstood medicinal practices, such as bleeding, water therapy and other unusual remedies, in a series of caricatures in the column of Les Malades et Les Médecins in the scathingly satiric journal of Le Charivari, a journal that later came under fire for its mockery of medical and political institutions and personages. These early graphic works of the 1840s include other illustrations, as well, such as the engraved vignettes and satirical lithographs in Militairiana for the Musée Philipon. This work was coming at a time in which illustrated vignettes, such as those Jacque provided, became an integral part of the text, but which also were at risk for coming under fire from the oppressive governmental regimes that, around this time period, had enacted a ban on these types of images.
As his career progressed, Jacque abandoned book illustration and by the mid 1840s began focusing his efforts on producing original etchings which were inspired by the Dutch masters, especially Rembrandt, and which became part of the contribution to the revival of Dutch art. He had first been introduced to these Old Masters early in his career when Louis Cabat, then a porcelain painter who lived next door to Jacque, took him to the Bibliothèque Nationale where they looked at prints by or after the work of Nicolas Poussin, Claude Lorrain, Albrecht Dürer, and Rembrandt van Rijn. However, he became increasingly interested in working on his own subject matter which could be exhibited at the Salon - works influenced by scenes from rural life, including landscapes, peasants, and animals, which he viewed during several journeys through the Seine valley.
Jacque debuted at the Salon of 1844 where he submitted an etched reproduction of a painting by Théodore Rousseau entitled Le Plateau de Belle Croix, Forêt de Fontainebleau (The Plateau of the Belle Croix, Forest of Fontainebleau). In a further extension of artistic diversity, he also worked on his first paintings during that year. In 1845 he submitted to the Salon a portrait copied from Rembrandt. Charles Baudelaire had great praise for the new artist and wrote in Curiosités Esthétiques (quoted from the translated edition Arts in Paris:1845-1862, London: Phaidon Press, 1965, pg. 29)
M. Jacque is a name which will continue, let us hope, to grow greater. M. Jacque's etching is very bold and he has grasped his subject admirably. There is a directness and a freedom about everything that M. Jacque does upon his copper which reminds one of the old masters. He is known besides to have executed some remarkable reproductions of Rembrandt's etchings.
His fame growing, he received his first commission from the State in 1846; an engraving of a work by Prudhon for the Church of Murat in le Cantal. Jacque must have been elated over his State commission, as in a letter Jacque notes the importance of commissions and exhibitions when he wrote, "a state commission would be for me the source of my fortune and glory." (quoted in Pierre-Olivier Fanica, Charles Jacque 1813-1894: Graveur Original et Peintre Animalier, Art Bizon, 1995, pg. 253). He submitted this piece to the Salon of 1847 but it was rejected. Reacting to the growing disapproval of the Salon jury decisions, he banded with other refused artists to create an organization which sought to challenge the Salon; an Association of Free Painters. This was never realized as the Salon of 1848 was open to all in response to the political events of the time that demanded that every piece was accepted. Still, Jacque did not exhibit any w orks at this Salon, despite the guarantee of their acceptance.
In 1849 a cholera epidemic swept through Paris. Jacque, along with his friend Jean-Francois Millet, decided to move his family to Fontainebleau, the safe haven of inspiration for several artists of this period. Here he would find more than just a respite from cholera; he would find inspiration for his artwork as well. He and Millet would become two of the several artists associated with the Barbizon School, a loose association of artists focusing their work on nature and the depiction of peasants and of animals. His earlier work already shows an inclination toward the love of nature, but at Barbizon, surrounded by others seeking the same inspiration, he increasingly focused on painting rustic subjects. Jacque quickly became known as an animalier, or an animal painter. His favorite subjects were sheep, for which he is best known, but he also captured many other farm animals, including cows, horses, domestic fowl and pigs, the latter often forgotten by other artists. Unlike some of the other artists working in Barbizon, the human element in his painting is much less pronounced as he usually focused solely on the depiction of the animal. Rene Menard in The Portfolio of September 1875 asked:
If the word "picturesque" did not exist in the French language one would have to invent it for the works of Charles Jacque: and what is the picturesque if not the sentiment of life in its most familiar form?…Who knows better than he how to paint or draw hens perched on a cart, ducks dabbling in a pond, sheep in search of grass…? His inns, his farms and poultry yards, his village streets, his skirts of forest; his old walls, full of crevices, of stains of damp or crumbling plaster; his barns with cobwebs hanging from their ceilings, charm us precisely because the painter has not recourse to any tricks but merely tells us, in his plastic language, the things that he saw, observed, and studied in the country.
Jacque used this newly discovered inspiration for the series of etchings that he submitted to the Salon of 1850, which earned him a third-class medal (only once in his career would Jacque be recognized above a third-class placement at the Salon).
His experiences at Barbizon also impacted his general interest. He began publishing his etchings in Le Magasin Pittoresque and L'Illustration, but also began submitting articles to agricultural journals such as Le Journal d'Agriculture Pratique, discussing such topics as drainage and irrigation systems for gardens, the raising of animals, among other subjects. His interest in animals took on new dimensions as he began frequenting Le Jardin des Plantes in Paris where he asked Isidore Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire for permission to study and to do drawings of animals. Saint-Hilaire was in the process of founding a Société d'Acclimatation, of which Jacque became a fervent member. Not content to draw chickens, Jacque completed a book of his experiences as a chicken farmer at Barbizon entitled Le Poulailler. In 1857 he actually took on the task of selling eggs -- a business venture that not only showed to what point Jacque had interests beyond that of painting, but also that he had wanted to gain a deeper understanding of his subject matter.
He continued exhibiting regularly at the Salons throughout this period and received another third class medal at the Salon of 1861. Regardless of any success at Salon exhibitions, it did not translate into monetary gains during this time, perhaps because Jacque's agricultural interests were not as successful as anticipated. From 1862-1867 he was plagued by financial problems and was forced to sell much of the property that he owned and abandoned his chicken farming venture. In an attempt to improve his financial situation, he began working feverishly on his prints, editing several series of etchings. He also began executing many paintings after adopting a technique of looser execution, which allowed him to produce work much more quickly, but often at the expense of quality. The detail work that was apparent in much of his previous work was, in some cases, eliminated. He stopped publishing his articles, but did exhibit at the 1863 and 1864 Salon, receiving a third class medal at the latter.
The following years proved to be a busy period for Jacque, as his success brought him recognition and acceptance. Jacque was finally honored with the Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur in 1867 and was also elected to the jury for the 1867 Exposition Universelle. He exhibited a painting, Pastorale (Pastoral), at the Exposition and received another third class medal. He was also on the jury for the 1867 Grand Prix de Rome, a yearly prize given to a young and promising art student who would then have the opportunity to study in Italy for four years. With these accolades, his work began to sell better, and after 1870 he began to earn a good deal of money. He had sacrificed his etchings to his paintings, which began to sell at incredible prices. During the last twenty years of his life he earned two hundred thousand francs per year, an admirable sum for a self-trained artist working primarily in the graphic arts.
In the 1870's he became involved with a factory at Le Croisic that produced Renaissance and Gothic-style furniture. He restored the older pieces of furniture and then re-fabricated them in the troubadour style after his own designs. He recruited three apprentices to assist him, but later moved the shop to Pau. After 1870 he stopped exhibiting regularly at the Salons and began instead relying more heavily on dealers for the sale of his work, the subject of which remained consistent. In 1881 he began experimenting with watercolors, which he had not done until this point and in 1888 he received Camille Pissarro in his studio, a younger artist who was becoming well-known for his neo-impressionist works. Towards the end of his career his reputation and work earned him a gold medal at the 1889 Exposition Universelle, his final triumph over a series of third place medals at the annual Salons. His work had also crossed over to America where he found great success. As the years passed he watched his colleagues pass away; those other artists who found the same inspiration in nature and at, the village of Barbizon. He was one of the last representatives of the Barbizon School maintaining his enthusiasm and his way of creating close to the twentieth century.
Jacque's last Salon exhibition was 1894 where he showed Intérieur d'Écurie (Interior of a Stable). He died on May 7th in Paris, 1894.
Several aspects of Charles Jacque's life and career set him apart from his contemporaries and even his colleagues working at Barbizon. He began his ascension in the art world with little artistic training; successfully transitioned from an illustrator/caricaturist into a position of a respected artist of the "high" arts; was a firm believer in the importance of gaining an intimate knowledge of his subject matter, well beyond simple observation; and most importantly, established himself most prominently not only as a painter, but also an etcher -- contributing to the return of the graphic arts as an important medium of artistic expression. Each of these aspects of Jacque's career contributes to a further understanding of his placement and importance in nineteenth century art.

virt-diff - Man Page
Differences between files in two virtual machines
virt-diff [--options] -d domain1 -D domain2 virt-diff [--options] -a disk1.img [-a ...] -A disk2.img [-A ...]
lists the differences between files in two virtual machines or disk images. The usual use case is to show the changes in a VM after it has been running for a while, by taking a snapshot, running the VM, and then using this tool to show what changed between the new VM state and the old snapshot.
This tool will find differences in filenames, file sizes, checksums, extended attributes, file content and more from a virtual machine or disk image. However it does not look at the boot loader, unused space between partitions or within filesystems, "hidden" sectors and so on. In other words, it is not a security or forensics tool.
To specify two guests, you have to use the -a or -d option(s) for the first guest, and the -A or -D option(s) for the second guest. The common case is:
virt-diff -a old.img -A new.img
or using names known to libvirt:
virt-diff -d oldguest -D newguest
- --help
Display brief help.
- -a file
- --add file
Add file which should be a disk image from the first virtual machine. If the virtual machine has multiple block devices, you must supply all of them with separate -a options.
The format of the disk image is auto-detected. To override this and force a particular format use the --format=.. option.
- -a URI
- --add URI
Add a remote disk. See "ADDING REMOTE STORAGE" in guestfish(1).
- --all
Same as --extra-stats --times --uids --xattrs.
- --atime
The default is to ignore changes in file access times, since those are unlikely to be interesting. Using this flag shows atime differences as well.
- -A file
Add a disk image from the second virtual machine.
- --blocksize=512
- --blocksize=4096
- --blocksize
This parameter sets the sector size of the disk image. It affects all explicitly added subsequent disks after this parameter. Using --blocksize with no argument switches the disk sector size to the default value which is usually 512 bytes. See also "guestfs_add_drive_opts" in guestfs(3).
- --checksum
- --checksum=crc|md5|sha1|sha224|sha256|sha384|sha512
Use a checksum over file contents to detect when regular files have changed content.
With no argument, this defaults to using md5. Using an argument, you can select the checksum type to use. If the flag is omitted then file times and size are used to determine if a file has changed.
- -c URI
- --connect URI
If using libvirt, connect to the given URI. If omitted, then we connect to the default libvirt hypervisor.
If you specify guest block devices directly (-a), then libvirt is not used at all.
- --csv
Write out the results in CSV format (comma-separated values). This format can be imported easily into databases and spreadsheets, but read "Note About CSV Format" below.
- --dir-links
The default is to ignore changes in the number of links in directory entries, since those are unlikely to be interesting. Using this flag shows changes to the nlink field of directories.
- --dir-times
The default is to ignore changed times on directory entries, since those are unlikely to be interesting. Using this flag shows changes to the time fields of directories.
- -d guest
- --domain guest
Add all the disks from the named libvirt guest, as the first guest. Domain UUIDs can be used instead of names.
- -D guest
Add all the disks from the named libvirt guest, as the second guest. Domain UUIDs can be used instead of names.
- --echo-keys
When prompting for keys and passphrases, virt-diff normally turns echoing off so you cannot see what you are typing. If you are not worried about Tempest attacks and there is no one else in the room you can specify this flag to see what you are typing.
- --extra-stats
Display extra stats.
- --format=raw|qcow2|..
- --format
The default for the -a/-A option is to auto-detect the format of the disk image. Using this forces the disk format for -a/-A options which follow on the command line. Using --format with no argument switches back to auto-detection for subsequent -a/-A options.
For example:
virt-diff --format=raw -a disk.img [...]
forces raw format (no auto-detection) for disk.img.
virt-diff --format=raw -a disk.img --format -a another.img [...]
forces raw format (no auto-detection) for disk.img and reverts to auto-detection for another.img.
If you have untrusted raw-format guest disk images, you should use this option to specify the disk format. This avoids a possible security problem with malicious guests (CVE-2010-3851).
- -h
- --human-readable
Display file sizes in human-readable format.
- --key SELECTOR
Specify a key for LUKS, to automatically open a LUKS device when using the inspection.
- --key NAME:key:KEY_STRING
- --key UUID:key:KEY_STRING
- --key all:key:KEY_STRING
is the libguestfs device name (eg./dev/sda1
is the device UUID.all
means try the key against any encrypted device.Use the specified
as passphrase.- --key NAME:file:FILENAME
- --key UUID:file:FILENAME
- --key all:file:FILENAME
Read the passphrase from FILENAME.
- --key NAME:clevis
- --key UUID:clevis
- --key all:clevis
Attempt passphrase-less unlocking for the device with Clevis, over the network. Please refer to "ENCRYPTED DISKS" in guestfs(3) for more information on network-bound disk encryption (NBDE).
Note that if any such option is present on the command line, QEMU user networking will be automatically enabled for the libguestfs appliance.
- --keys-from-stdin
Read key or passphrase parameters from stdin. The default is to try to read passphrases from the user by opening /dev/tty.
If there are multiple encrypted devices then you may need to supply multiple keys on stdin, one per line.
- --times
Display time fields.
- --time-days
Display time fields as days before now (negative if in the future).
Note that
in output means "up to 1 day before now", or that the age of the file is between 0 and 86399 seconds.- --time-relative
Display time fields as seconds before now (negative if in the future).
- --time-t
Display time fields as seconds since the Unix epoch.
- --uids
Display UID and GID fields.
- -v
- --verbose
Enable verbose messages for debugging.
- --version
Display version number and exit.
- -x
Enable tracing of libguestfs API calls.
- --xattrs
Display extended attributes.
Note About CSV Format
Comma-separated values (CSV) is a deceptive format. It seems like it should be easy to parse, but it is definitely not easy to parse.
Myth: Just split fields at commas. Reality: This does not work reliably. This example has two columns:
Myth: Read the file one line at a time. Reality: This does not work reliably. This example has one row:
"foo bar",baz
For shell scripts, use csvtool
(https://github.com/Chris00/ocaml-csv also packaged in major Linux distributions).
For other languages, use a CSV processing library (eg. Text::CSV
for Perl or Python's built-in csv library).
Most spreadsheets and databases can import CSV directly.
Exit Status
This program returns 0 if successful, or non-zero if there was an error.

A few years back, a buddy of mine on the Dartmouth crew team was faced with a seemingly impossible challenge: he needed to lose 25 pounds in a month.
Although he was strong as an ox, after a few months of eating indiscriminately during the off-season, his weight had slowly crept up.
But now it came down to this: "lose 25 pounds in less than 30 days or you are off the team."
Now, it should be said that many bodybuilders, wrestlers, and even fitness models can drop an insane amount of weight by using performance enhancing drugs, diuretics, or severe water restriction. It "works," but it's not particularly good for you, fair, or sustainable.
Sure, the weight would come off, but his soul, good conscience, and morals would be in jeopardy. He wasn't interested in that.
An extreme starvation diet could potentially help his weight come down, but he would risk strength loss as his body catabolized his hard-earned muscle to keep his organs humming. All of these options were unacceptable.
So my friend dug deep into old wives' tales and ghost stories of the crew team and beyond to find a simple fix. After all, rowers had faced the same problem for decades.
He finally happened upon a long-retired crew coach who claimed to have the answer to his prayers.
The coach said that this trick:
- Does not involve any drugs/herbs/or magic potions
- Requires absolutely no special foods
- Is mind-numbingly simple
- Requires little deprivation but considerable self-control
So how do you shave off 25 pounds in a month in a way that's fair, healthy, and legal?
Drink water. Only water.
No fruit juice, soda, diet soda, coffee, beer, sports drinks, energy drinks or any other liquid calories. Drink nothing but pure water for a month. Can he lose 25 pounds in a month?
My friend was dubious, but he decided to grit his teeth and give it a shot.
He started drinking a glass of cool, fresh water every morning and continued to drink plenty throughout the day.
He still made appearances at parties and get-togethers, where he politely and confidently sipped his water bottle, staying delightfully clear-headed while others drooled all over themselves in a drunken stupor.
So did it work?
Incredibly, my friend lost 25 pounds in a month. And he went from pudgy to ripped.
He ate exactly the same foods, drank more water, and ignored all of the mysterious-colored liquids on the convenience-store shelves and stopped doing kegstands.
He also noticed that he wasn't any hungrier, since liquid calories are rarely satisfying or filling.
Why did he lose 25 pounds in 30 days?
My friend estimated that he previously was unwittingly consuming about 800-1000 liquid calories/day. That's the equivalent of quite a few 100-calorie packs to suddenly not be eating.
Anyone cutting that amount of calories (while maintaining strength, training and eating plenty of protein to avoid losing muscle) would see significant short-term fat loss.
I'm sure his training program also accelerated his results, but he was adamant about the fact that without eliminating liquid calories he never would have been able to make weight.
Here is what I love about this trick.
It's so simple that it's almost absurd. But it is one that absolutely ANYONE can do and it only requires one ingredient (water) and a hint of self-control.
In the days before ab belts, fat blasting pills, stomach stapling, and magic potions, there was a leaning toward achieving seemingly impossible goals with confident and well-polished willpower and little else.
We could all do with a bit more of that.
Too many people these days are looking for a silver bullet in all of the wrong places. How many people want to lose 25 pounds in a month? Could drinking only water work?
Sure, it would certainly help. It's so simple it's stupid. But how many people actually do it? Would you?
So many people spend unconscionable amounts of money and time scouring the earth for a pill that will allow them to keep eating terrible food, ignore physical activity, make no lifestyle changes, all while torching fat off of their bodies.
And you know what? It doesn't exist, and I hope it never does.
The fact that a magical fat-burning pill doesn't exist is a blessing in disguise: if it existed (and actually worked), then many people would resign themselves to lives of expensive over-medication. And they would never learn anything except to open their wallets, and that they required a pill to be lean and "happy."
Want to Burn Fat? Drink More Water.
It's incredible how easy it is to take in hundreds of extra, unneeded, empty, and unfulfilling calories in the many drinks you consume over the course of the day.
So many people monitor food labels like hawks, but completely ignore any liquid calories they consume (which are often considerable).
Our ancestors had nearly no other options but drinking water. There were no Slurpees, caramel macchiatos, or double-chocolate stouts. In a sense, we are built to drink nothing but water.
Now I'm not advocating that you need to stop drinking anything but water (but you could certainly try if you want an exercise in self-control and some serious, quick results).
Liquids calories are not filling, are devoid of fiber, and usually, lack natural nutrients (with the exception of my much-loved green smoothie).
Here are the worst offenders that you should cut out first:
- Milkshakes
- Sugary alcoholic drinks (e.g., margaritas, rum and coke, etc.)
- Fruit juice (even 100% juice)
- Meal-replacement drinks
- Soda
- Energy Drinks
- Beer
- Diet soda (studies have shown that diet soda is even more fattening than regular soda)
- Flavored Milk
- Sugary drive-thru drinks (the famed caramel cappuccino)
- Sugar in coffee or tea
- Powdered drink mixes
- Sports drinks
When you want to spice up your water, throw in some citrus or mint. You can also drink as much tea or coffee as you'd like.
Want a party in your mouth? Add some cinnamon, nutmeg, herbs and such.
Red wine from time to time also seems to have little effect on weight gain, and in fact, has antioxidants and reservatrol that have been shown to improve health and assist weight loss.
So cheers. Drink up, my friends.

Liberal Hell Alert: NYC Hits Sandy Victims With 'Failure To Maintain' Property Citation
Residents in one Queens neighborhood are crying foul after they were written up for failing to clean up the city's own mess. It is yet another new complication in life after Superstorm Sandy.
Rosanne and Joe Cavaliere are still trying to clean up from the hurricane.
They have branches through their roof, busted front windows, and, to add insult to injury, they recently received a citation notice from the city.
"It makes me angry, but it's also ridiculous!" Rosanne Cavaliere told CBS 2's Jessica Schneider.
They got it on Nov. 9, cited with "failure to maintain" their property.
But as they pointed out to CBS 2's Schneider on Tuesday night, it's a city tree that they were waiting for the city to remove.
"It was over two weeks before someone came and removed it from the house, and we were patient enough with that, but then to just be slapped with a violation," Joe Cavaliere said.
The Department of Buildings said the citation is a mere formality. It's a way to keep track of all downed trees.
But for people in this neighborhood…it's a permanent mark on their property that they want removed from the records.
"They're not only upset, but they're insulted. And they're nervous! They don't know what's going to happen as a result of having this violation," said Elaine Young of the local neighborhood association.
The Department of Buildings released the following statement: "We have been working closely with property owners as they prepare to rebuild, and part of our process is documenting the damage that has occurred. These violations do not carry any monetary penalties, and if any homeowner has a question, please call 311."
But that explanation didn't fly with the Cavalieres.
"I want the violation off my house, off my record, and all of our neighbors," Rosanne Cavaliere said.

This week, Hungary's opposition parties united behind one candidate for next year's elections. And this creates a real threat to Prime Minister Viktor Orban's hold on power. Hungarians will be voting as they, like many other Eastern Europeans, continue to grapple with what it means to be European. Joanna Kakissis is in Sopron, Hungary, with the story.
LAZSLO NAGY: There where the road is. And there is the sign, the European Union. You see the blue one?
JOANNA KAKISSIS, BYLINE: Yes.
L NAGY: There was this gate.
KAKISSIS: Laszlo Nagy points to a small road running through a grassy stretch of the border between Austria and Hungary near the Hungarian city of Sopron. It was here in the summer of 1989, when Nagy was a young engineer, that the heavily guarded gate between east and west began to open.
L NAGY: So many people were waiting. You see?
KAKISSIS: Yeah.
L NAGY: You didn't see the road. And in this situation, it wasn't possible to stop them.
KAKISSIS: Young Hungarians and East Germans gathered on one side of the border and Austrians on the other. They camped out here with their families as part of what's now known as the Pan-European Picnic. As the crowds continued to grow, Hungary opened the gate.
KAKISSIS: And hundreds ran west. They wept with joy. The Berlin Wall fell a few months later.
IVAN KRASTEV: We wanted to be like the Western societies have been in the 1970s and 1980s. And then we basically entered the world, which we don't know very well. And we're lost in it.
KAKISSIS: Political scientist Ivan Krastev also grew up behind the Iron Curtain, in Bulgaria. He's written about Eastern Europe's post-Cold War discomfort with the West.
KRASTEV: We wanted to be like the West. But the very moment you want to be like somebody else, it means that probably this somebody else is better than you. And then you start to have the fear of, what about our own identity? What is going to happen?
KAKISSIS: Elation gave way to culture shock as Eastern European economies struggled and millions migrated west.
KAKISSIS: Those who stayed behind listened to Western music in Western-style cafes, but they also felt pressured to adopt Western values on multiculturalism, sexual identity and gender. For many in conservative Hungary, this has been a struggle.
NATALIA BORZA: Hungary is a place where we didn't have the the so-called sexual revolution, that revolution that took place in the western part of Europe or in America.
KAKISSIS: Natalia Borza is a philosopher and linguist in Budapest who studies gender issues.
BORZA: During the communism, Hungarian people - they were basically told by the Soviets how to live. And, OK, 30 years pass, but still, we have the memory of what it feels like being under someone else's rules.
KAKISSIS: Hungary's nationalist prime minister for the last decade, Viktor Orban, draws on that sentiment to stay in power. At a recent demographics conference in Budapest, also attended by former Vice President Mike Pence, Orban declared that he's protecting Hungary's traditional values.
PRIME MINISTER VIKTOR ORBAN: (Through interpreter) The Western left wing is attacking. It is trying to relativize the notion of family. Its tools for doing so are gender ideology and the LGBTQ lobby, which are attacking our children.
KAKISSIS: Orban's government recently passed a law restricting the teaching of LGBTQ issues in schools. It was prompted by a children's book featuring gay, nonbinary and transgender characters.
BOLDIZSAR NAGY: It became a tool for them, for the government. And they used it as a - you know, as a symbol of, you know, the Western enemy.
KAKISSIS: Boldizsar Nagy edited the book.
B NAGY: The government loves to visualize that the Hungarian society is like, you know, the West in the '50s, as before. But I don't think that we are that conservative and that close-minded.
KAKISSIS: Hungary holds a referendum on the law next year. Meanwhile, the EU is now threatening to cut funding to Hungary unless Orban's government rescinds the law.
UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: (Singing in non-English language).
KAKISSIS: That scares Anna Maria Vesten (ph), who is 17 and has only known a Hungary that has prospered as part of the EU.
ANNA MARIA VESTEN: I think that the relationship between the European Union and Hungary gets worse. And it's very bad because the European Union - it's very good for our economy to be part of it.
KAKISSIS: Vesten traveled to a city north of Budapest a few weeks ago to hear Fox News host Tucker Carlson, another American conservative who's come to Hungary. But Vesten says she wants to debate liberals, not insult them.
VESTEN: As a conservative, I feel like that in the Western cultures, a lot of traditional values are disappearing today. And it's really important to concentrate on building communities and families. I also think that we should, like, have a better discussion because I think this is going to a very, very bad direction now. We don't feel like that we are part of one nation. It's more like two nations already.
UNIDENTIFIED PEOPLE: (Singing in non-English language).
KAKISSIS: On the outskirts of Budapest, at a modest Methodist church, the congregation here feels the same way. They offer prayers for Western-funded nonprofits in Hungary that the government has labeled foreign agents. The tall, white-bearded pastor here is Father Gabor Ivanyi, who fought the communists for religious freedom.
GABOR IVANYI: (Through interpreter) They evicted us from our church and boarded it up. So for years, I preached on the streets.
KAKISSIS: He preached tolerance. He still does.
IVANYI: (Through interpreter) I know what it feels like to be cast out. So I decided to become the kind of pastor who shows solidarity with those who are marginalized.
KAKISSIS: He says that today, the marginalized include half of Hungarians, those who find the government's definition of European values intolerant.
KAKISSIS: Back in Sopron, where Hungary opened its border in 1989, some of those who helped organize the Pan-European Picnic tell me they also feel marginalized but by the West, like Laszlo Magas.
LAZSLO MAGAS: (Through interpreter) Western Europe may not want to identify people by gender, but we still do. And for us, a family has a mother who is a woman and a father who is a man. I resent that the West looks down on us for our beliefs and treats us like a colony.
KAKISSIS: Magas is reminiscing at a cafe with his fellow organizer Laszlo Nagy, who says the European Union has lost its way.
MAGAS: What are European values? What? I don't know. Everybody says something different. There must be borders which we - red lines which we don't step over.
KAKISSIS: And who gets to define those borders is still dividing Europe's east and west. For NPR News, I'm Joanna Kakissis in Sopron, Hungary.

I am absolutely delighted to share my news with you that my blog is now sponsored by the following fantastic UK online fabric stores.
I am extremely honoured and proud that these wonderful shops view my blog as worthy enough to sponsor and so if you don't know them already please do click on the links on the right and peruse their wonderful collections.
Each one is very different from the next with what they offer and I will be telling you about all of them over the next few day.
Let me introduce the first one to you today and those of you that are regular readers of my blog will find it a very familiar name.
M is for Make is run by the lovely Kate who handpicks the most wonderful collection of fabrics from all over the world. Kate is based in Brighton and M is for Make is the result of a lifelong love of pretty fabrics and sewing.
Kate supplements her lovely collection of fabrics with the best collection of beautiful Japanese sewing books and fantastic sewing patterns. I have several of the Japanese sewing books and even though I don't understand a word of them, the photographs alone are enough to entice me into thinking one day I may be able to make something from them.
You may remember Kate generously offering me a selection of fabrics - any selection I wanted - to make a quilt for Siblings Together. A couple of the fabrics I had chosen hadn't yet been released and coincidentally coinciding with the launch of my sponsors they arrived this week. I have a feeling that the Denyse Schmidt on the top is not going to hang around for long.
The partnership with my sponsors is going to bring lots of exciting news, giveaways and other opportunities for you, so please stick around as I announce each in turn.
