Who are the people beside Paul, and what can we know about them?
This volume brings together an international and interdisciplinary group of scholars with a broad range of expertise and a common interest: Philippi in antiquity. Each essay engages one set of contextual particularities for Paul and the ordinary people of the Philippian assembly, while simultaneously placing them in wider settings. This "people's history" uses both traditional and more cutting-edge methods to reconsider archaeology and architecture, economy and ethnicity, prisons and priestesses, slavery, syncretism, stereotypes of Jews, the colony of Philippi, and a range of communities—there and then and also here and now. The contributors are Valerie Abrahamsen, Richard S. Ascough, Robert L. Brawley, Noelle Damico, Richard A. Horsley, Joseph A. Marchal, Mark D. Nanos, Peter Oakes, Gerardo Reyes Chavez, Angela Standhartinger, Eduard Verhoef, and Antoinette Clark Wire.
Joseph A. Marchal is the author and editor of four other works on the study of Paul's letters and the communities that received them including, Philippians: Historical Problems, Hierarchical Visions, Hysterical Anxieties (Sheffield Phoenix Press), Studying Paul's Letters: Contemporary Perspectives and Methods (Fortress), The Politics of Heaven: Women, Gender, and Empire in the Study of Paul (Fortress), and Hierarchy, Unity, and Imitation: A Feminist Rhetorical Analysis of Power Dynamics in Paul's Letter to the Philippians (Society of Biblical Literature).

Thomson Reuters expands MarketPsych analysis service
First Published 1st June 2015
New Thomson Reuters MarketPsych Indices on companies deepens insight available to investors about emotions and perceptions embedded in news, blogs and social media, and the impact on markets and trading strategies.
Richard Peterson, MarketPsych
"Through the lens of this data we can distinguish when investors overreact to information - generating price reversals - or under-react to news - precipitating trends."
New York - Thomson Reuters has extended the analytics offered through its MarketPsych Indices to include individual companies, alongside the indices for countries, currencies, commodities and industries already available.
Behavioral economists have long recognized that investor perceptions affect financial markets in predictable ways. News and social media are increasingly driving investor activity, with many trading decisions based on emotional responses to the stories circulating around particular companies or sectors. The ability to measure the psychological state of the market as represented by these emotional expressions offers significant advantages in defining effective trading strategies. This is especially the case when applied at the level of individual companies.
First launched in 2012, Thomson Reuters developed its MarketPsych Indices in conjunction with MarketPsych, a consultancy specializing in quantitative behavioral economics. The indices provide real-time linguistic and psychological analysis of news and social media, converting qualitative indicators - such as fear, performance forecasts, and trust in management - into quantitative, actionable insight. The new indices cover over 7,500 companies, giving investors new levels of insight into the dynamics behind market movements.
"The addition of company-level Thomson Reuters MarketPsych Indices into our news and text analytics proposition extends our ability to help customers understand the behavior driving financial markets," said James Cantarella, head of Machine Readable News at Thomson Reuters. "They act as a powerful complement to the tools and services we already offer in this area, helping our customers draw a comprehensive and sophisticated picture of market dynamics and act with confidence."
"Thomson Reuters MarketPsych Indices shed light on how global economies and stock prices respond to information," said Dr Richard Peterson, managing director of MarketPsych LLC. "Through the lens of this data we can distinguish when investors overreact to information - generating price reversals - or under-react to news - precipitating trends. This new data helps investment professionals see how markets behave under stress or during trends, and allows them to systematically enhance investment and trading strategies."

The ranch becomes a place for couples to escape the daily regiments of technology and the hustle and bustle of life in the 21st century. As Charlie, one of our guests in the early seasons, once put it, "You can be as busy as you want or just simply sit and read a book. I like both."

We do it because this is our home, and whether you come again or not, we want to make sure our ranch is a place that brings a smile every time you think of it. Check out the reviews.

Besides everything listed below, there are some great souvenirs in our trading post store, the massage services, the "off ranch" guided fly fishing trip, fishing licenses, and your transportation to the ranch (which we can take care of too). Otherwise – it's all included:
Guided Adventures and Horseback Riding
Each day on the ranch, riders will have at least two opportunities for western-style horseback riding during your vacation. Before you arrive you will be scheduled with a horse and saddle for your entire stay based on your riding preferences. Your horse will be chosen for based on the information you have provided on your Activity Information form. Horseback riding is exhilarating and there are rides scheduled throughout the week for all types of riding levels. All horseback rides will be leaving the valley floor to unique vistas, viewpoints, or peaks except for some of the younger children. Advanced and beginner riding is available. Advanced riders must complete the advanced test, allowing us to see your ability to control the horse and to make sure you and your horse are a good match.

Lodging options include everything from one bedroom suites to four bedroom authentic log cabins.

Denver Family Photography
Families are to be celebrated. They grow, they change, and they are full of unwavering love. Many people like to take photos in the fall here in Colorado due to the blazing colors offered by the local aspens and cottonwoods. My goal for family photography is to capture the family as a whole and then each focus on smaller elements, such as just the parents or just siblings. In Denver family photography can be done any time of the year. I have shot snowy pictures on cold days, hot summer pictures, and most popular are the Fall sessions.
Family session rates are the same no matter if you're a family of two or ten. I do not penalize you for having children! I love large families. How you want to do your family portraits is up to you! The best time of day for portraits is within an hour of sunset. This is the best light and it doesn't create weird shadows or make you squint. In the summer that can be as late as 8pm and in the winter as early as 3:30pm. Extended family sessions may incur additional fees due to the large amount of planning, permits or extra editing that can take place. Please contact me to discuss specifics if you're planning on gathering more than one family.
Please view my gallery for examples of my Denver family photography below.

2350 Meadows Blvd. * Castle Rock CO 80109 * 720-455-3664 www.mannasbounty.com
You can live on pho for 10 days, but around day 5 one starts craving variety. In the middle of a Colorado schooling stint, with no time to cook, I was told the best place for great, but inexpensive food was…in the HOSPITAL.
That's right! In Castle Rock, people go to the hospital FOR THE FOOD. What the…?!?! I hauled my ass and my books there, chomped through delectable ceviche, and attacked the dessert menu.
PIE. Listed underneath 'Homemade Salted Caramel Gelato "Sandwich" ' – ( holy crap! Gotta try that too ) – was 'Sodacracker Pie with Fresh Berries.' Have you ever heard of such a thing?! Sodacracker pie manifested as a surprise of scrumptious meringue festooned with strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, and whipped cream. Before demolishing it I whipped out my camera and took photos. Nobody batted an eye, I suspect people take food photos in Manna on an hourly basis.
Woe unto me, my camera ate the photos. So I ripped off a pie photo via Manna's Facebook account, then ironically thought it'd be a marvelous idea to draw while I was ill. Look at this beauty:
What. The fuck. Do note that the '101 F' is written upside down, nice touch. Perhaps I'd have been better off IN the hospital than artistically butchering the hospital's fine desserts. Rest assured, in real, healthy life the Sodacracker Pie is gorgeous and uniquely yummy! I was a repeat customer.
And why is Manna restaurant so freaking awesome?! Because it was created by a superstar and now run by one too. I was gonna paraphrase this intro but here's the whole shebang, it's so impressive:
'Dan Skay was the opening Executive Chef at Littleton, Parker and Castle Rock Adventist Hospitals. Chef Dan worked on the design phase for Castle Rock Adventists' Manna Restaurant. He is Nutrition Manager and Executive Chef for Manna with help from Chef de Cuisine Adam Freisem. In 1992, Chef Dan was the winner of the Great Chefs of America Culinary Competition and also the Grand Prize Winner of Custom Foods Golden Recipe Competition. Other accolades included winner of 1995 Premier Chefs of America, 1996 National Cully Award, 2000 Colorado Govenor's Symposium Celebrating Colorado Cuisine, winning Best Colorado Entrée, and 2009 AHF National Culinary Competition Gold Medal Winner in Palm Springs, CA and the Wall Street Journal title of Hospital Top Chef. Most recently, Chef Dan won the national 2014 AHF Spotlight Award for innovation in healthcare food service and the MUFSO Best Concept Award.'
Chef Dan Skay and Adam Freisem make the hospital a place you go to ON PURPOSE. In addition, the wait staff was friendly and awesome. This team simply rocks it . In their honor, here is an awful picture of them. ( So sorry you guys!!)

Surfing and Strolling near Manna Restaurant
[ Pie tastes best when you're hungry ]
SURFING: If you know people in Castle Rock, I guess you could go couch surfing.
STROLLING: Lots of open space! But hurry, as developers are encroaching like aggressive slime mold. Front Range weather changes by the minute so be prepared to experience all four seasons. During summer, stroll during the morning, afternoons turn into exciting games of Thunder Dodge.

I noted in a post on Monday that I hear the "a" word being hurled quite a bit since I arrived in Denver. I heard it twice more from drivers while covering events downtown. A delegate was walking against the light and a driver who was apparently in a hurry, nonetheless took the time to assess the delegate's anatomy. Our rental van has Texas plates and the people who drive it say they've been the target of an "a-bomb" or two.
What gives, Denver? Are those real Denverites? Is that the spirit of Denver? Or is there a difference between those who drive and people you might run into on the ground. I haven't been here long enough to know and despite what you may have read in a local weekly that has an off-and-on relationship with accuracy, I'm not prepared to judge an entire population on the anecdotal evidence.
Just consider these as data points and see if, maybe, the Twin Cities can strive to make our guests feel welcomed next week.
I've found the volunteers to be predictably helpful and friendly. They're supposed to be. And, besides, I've got a press credential around my neck. And even the cops have been friendly. On Monday, however, I spent some time "undercover."
I posted myself at several corners for 15 minutes at a time, with a map unfurled, scratching my head, and looking as helpless and lost as I possibly could, to see if anyone would say, "can I help you find something?" I also counted the number of people who walked by me during my time as the country bumpkin.
Seven-hundred-17 people walked by me, and none volunteered to assist the more distressed elderly man I was — quite fictionally, mind you — portraying. Are you getting this, St. Paul?
But here's the kicker. About an hour after that, I was on my way to an appointment near the Denver mint. I was no longer "pretending" to be lost. I really was. I took out my map, and looked up to check the street signs. A young couple walked past me, then turned and walked back to me.
"Can I help you find something?" he asked.
I'll bet if he were in a car, he'd even let me cross against the light.

B: Bangs, loud. Balls, crystal. Brighton?
Bangs, loud.
Sergeant Don Fisher, the Depot's physical training instructor, taught fencing with foil and sabre to the four of us in the Gordons' fencing team - yes, even Bonfig. Bonfig's expert knowledge of classical swordsmanship, including the Old French or Italian nomenclature, was a perfect complement to Sgt Fisher's athletic, competition-based teaching.
For a masterly fusion of both, read the opening of Bonfig's All the Tea in China, where Mortdecai's ancestor, taking ship to China, also has to take on the bullying second mate. It's cutlasses for two on the main-deck.
" . . .rushed in with a great smash at my head, which I met with the high St George's guard . . .next attack was a slow, clumsy molinello, commencing with a feint at my side under the sword arm, another at my head which carried no conviction at all and finishing with a slice at my breast.
I performed a salto in dietro - the elegant leap backwards - at the latest possible moment and he missed by a foot; then I pretended to stumble and, as he rushed in to destroy me, dropped into the long Italian lunge, knuckles on the deck. He ran straight into it and, instantly, the front of his (canvas) frock was a terrifying mess of blood."
It was unfortunate that what should have been a felicitous co-operation between these two accomplished teachers, Fisher and Bonfig, developed a sharp competitive edge. This led to at least two tit-for-tat practical jokes, one of which could have been extremely dangerous.
of the day. As Education Sergeants, not counted as real soldiers, we were not obliged to "get on parade" every morning. Our attendance might well have called into question the reputation and resolve of the whole British Army.
The Fish decided to wake my snoozing colleague with a bang one Sunday. He climbed onto the roof and dropped a thunderflash down Bonfig's chimney. A thunderflash is a training aid designed to provide "donner und blitzen" moments for troops supposedly under fire. Thrown in open fields, they're safe enough, unless they land in your back pocket, in which case you qualify for an immediate stretcher-ride back to base - face down. They are not meant to be used in enclosed spaces.
This chimney was an enclosed space. It led straight down to a cast-iron cylindrical stove (not lit since this was summertime) with a trap-door at the foot for removing the ashes.
Came a thunderous explosion that rattled every window in the building. After a few seconds came out a dazed and temporarily deafened Bonfig, soot-encrusted and vowing vengeance. We found later that the trap-door had been blown off its hinges and flung across the room, making a mighty gash in the wall a couple of feet above his bed. Had he been sitting up, it might have taken his head off.
The following Sunday, footsteps appeared, stencilled in white paint, left foot only, leading from the doorstep of the PTI's married quarters (that's house in civilianspeak) all the way to the gymnasium, finishing at the door with the legend "Hopalong Cassidy was here." The Bonfig had struck back.
Next week: Balls, crystal

Space Fall was the second episode of Series A of Blake's 7 first broadcast in 1978.
From the VHS release:
As the prison transporter plunges away from Earth, an abandoned ship pulls up alongside - for Blake and his newly-formed band of convicts and thieves, it is their only hope of escape...
The London leaves Earth's solar system en route for Cygnus Alpha and Commander Leylan instructs his first officer, Raiker, to inform the prisoners of the rules: They are restricted to the seating area and an adjoining recreation area. Blake consults with Jenna, Vila and another prisoner, Nova, and is introduced to Kerr Avon, a computer expert who attempted to defraud millions of credit from the Federation banking system.
Some weeks into the journey, Blake has managed to find a way out of the prisoners' area: Vila and Gan distract the guard, Dainer, while he clambers along a crawl space that leads to a computer room. He then convinces Avon to make the journey and take control of the computer, which will give them control of the ship. However, when Avon makes the journey he finds a technician on duty. Worried by the delay, Nova goes after him but the section he is crawling through is holed by a meteorite and filled with quick-setting sealant, killing him.
Avon manages to overpower the technician and block out the security cameras but is attacked again before he can do anything else. When the guard on the prisoners notices the camera fault, Gan overpowers him and forces him to let them out. Blake sends Gan and the others to find the armoury while he and Jenna go to find Avon. Leylan notices the fault and Raiker and Artix have a brief encounter with Blake and Jenna before they manage to seal themselves in the computer room with Avon, who has overcome the technician and gained control of the computer.
Gan overpowers two more guards and instructs Vila and another prisoner to grab their guns. However, when Dainer appears, Vila misunderstands an instruction to drop the weapon, allowing Dainer to kill the other armed prisoner and take them all prisoner again. Blake engages in a stand off with Leylan but Raiker forces him to surrender when he begins killing the other prisoners in retaliation.
With the prisoners secure again, the London detects signs of a battle between unknown forces before stumbling across a derelict and deserted spaceship. Leylan and Raiker elect to salvage it but lose contact with the three crewmembers who board it. Raiker suggests sending Blake, Jenna and Avon across instead. As they prepare to board, one of the previous boarding party, Krell, emerges from the airlock, having been driven insane. Crossing a boarding tube, they find the other two crewmen, Wallace and Teague, are both dead.
A security device on the flight deck attempts to draw them in with false images of their loved ones but Blake sees through the illusion and destroys it. He then instructs Jenna to get the ship moving. Raiker attempts to cross the boarding tube but, after a brief encounter with Blake, is killed when the ship breaks free of the tube, sending him hurtling out into space. Blake instructs Jenna to follow the London to Cygnus Alpha, intending to free the other prisoners and then fight back against the Federation.

The Death of Ivan Ilych. here is my paper.
Can I please get some feedback? Peer editing across the Pacific Ocean, Whee!
In The Death of Ivan Ilych, by Leo Tolstoy, the title character, Ivan Ilych, is a seeming well to do Russian politician. Somehow, Ivan develops a sickness, that ends up being fatal. The book begins with his funeral, and the continues from his birth up until the time of his death again. Ivan Ilych's sickness is a metaphor for the way he wasted his life.
The first sign that he wasted his life is shown through his 'friends' relationship with him. The people that the speaker calls Ivan Ilych's friends, are most certainly not his friends. The first example of this is when his colleagues first "...reciev[e] news of Ivan Ilych's death, the first thought of each of these gentlemen...was of the changes and promotions..." (pg. 96, Tolstoy). What close friend thinks first of what sort of promotion they get and not of how unfortunate it is that their colleague has died. Ivan Ilych is said to be "liked by them all" but instead his death "aroused...the complacent feeling that , 'it is he who is dead and not I'" (pg. 96, pg. 96). In someways that is just a 'survival of the fittest' mentality , but that doesn't mean that these 'friends' should have to "...sacrifice [their] usual nap" in order to go to the funeral (pg. 97). Paying last respects to ones' friends isn't a painstaking task, it is simple common curtsy, that shouldn't even be thought about in the case of ones' friends. In the speaker's description of the funeral, only two of Ivan Ilych's colleagues are named, Peter Ivanovich and Schwartz. These two come to the funeral, though reluctantly, but even though they go, they don't treat it at all as one should treat a funeral of a friend. When Schwartz first sees Peter, he "winked at him, as if to say: 'Ivan Ilych has made a mess of things-not like you and me" (pg. 97). He sounds like a true friend. Peter realizes that Schwartz wants to "arrange where they should play bridge that evening" (pg. 97). That is simply not the conduct of a person at a friend's funeral. There are three supposed facts in that sentence. Schwartz and Peter are people and they are at a person's funeral, which means that the flaw is in the word 'friend'. This means that they weren't really friends. Where could they relationship of these colleagues have fallen apart? At the place where it started: work.
Ivan Ilych's drive to succeed in work and the way he goes about it attributes to his pain. Ivan Ilych works very hard on having a good image, both personal, and of items (more on that later.) Upon graduating from college, he "ordered himself clothes at... the fashionable tailors, hung a medallion... on his watch-chain, had a farewell dinner with his comrades at [a] first-class restaurant," and buys a lot of personal belongings, "all purchased at the best shops" (pg. 105, pg. 105). His first job is only so because of "his father's influence" and so it doesn't actually seem as if Ivan did anything to deserve it. Thus, all of this very fancy clothes and such are necessary to make sure that he can fit the part. Through out his career, he is constantly seeking a higher paying job. Many years into his career, he goes searching for "a post with a salary of five thousand rubles a year. He was no longer bent on any particular department, or tendency, or kind of activity" (pg. 113). He doesn't care about the work, all he wants is the money, presumably so that he can improve his image. When he is considering getting married, "he was swayed by both these considerations: the marriage gave him personal satisfaction, and at the same time it was considered the right thing by the most highly placed of his associates" (pg. 109). There is no mention here of him loving the person to whom he is considering marrying, just satisfaction and it being the right thing from people higher up than him. In other words, it seems as if he is getting married to appeal more to those people in high positions than him.
Ivan Ilych's marriage and his relationships with the members of his family show another way he has wasted his life. His marriage, and thus the relationship with his wife, from the beginning, appears to be a terrible mistake. After the honeymoon period (and thus presumably rather early on in their marriage), Ivan's wife gets pregnant, and "from the first months of his wife's pregnancy, something new, unpleasant, depressing, and unseemly, and from which there was no way of escape, unexpectedly showed itself" (pg. 109). The only thing that has changed in his life is his marriage and the appearance of a child, which means that the cause for this "unpleasant, depress[ion]" is these new things. In order to get around these things, "he tried to ignore his wife's disagreeable moods , continued to live in his usual easy and pleasant way" (PG. 109). She, like any woman who is put in this situation, gets incredibly angry and finally, "he submitted-that is, till he stayed at home and was bored just as she was" (pg. 110). The two of them are bored together, yet they don't try to get around this, they just sit at at home and be bored. If two people who truly cared for each at were bored together at the same place, they could change this in a heart beat by working together, but as they don't care for each other, they remain bored, and in Ivan's case, "alarmed" (pg. 110). Their child gets born, and more and more does Ivan feel the need to get away from his family life, "As his wife grew more irritable and exacting and Ivan Ilych transferred the center of gravity of his life more and more to his official work, so did he grow to...bec[o]me more ambitious than before" (pg. 110). As this keeps up, again as she should, Ivan's wife gets more and more cranky, and "within a year of his wedding, Ivan Ilych had realized that marriage...is...a very intricate and difficult affair...which in order to perform one's duty, that is, to lead a decorous life approved by society, one must adopt a definite life attitude just as towards one's official duties" (pg. 110). One very interesting part of this passage is that there are two "duties" and they are different: one's official duties, which is to say work, and the duties which Ivan has put a great deal of effort into, "to lead a decorous life approved by society." The latter is certainly not at all a duty in the way that work is, and for this, Ivan is wasting his life spending his time doing this, instead of say, trying to make his wife happy. More children come, and his wife gets more and more irritated, and Ivan spends more and more time at work. And "so Ivan Ilych lived for seventeen years after his marriage" (pg. 112). He lives this terrible life for 17 years and never tries to do anything to fix it, just get away from his problems, which is a terrible waste of his relationships. He is constantly seeking promotions and better jobs so that he can have more money to support his duties, as opposed to his official duties or familial duties. At one point, he final gets the job he wants and buys a new house. In order to turn this house into a house that would show he "[led] a decorous life approved by society", he begins to furnish the house with a great number of accessories and other fancy house items.
The various furnishings for his new house show Ivan Ilych's drive to appear better, rather than to better himself. Throughout the book, there are numerous references to the furnishings in his house. In the beginning, at his funeral, a great deal of effort goes into describing the surroundings , "a coffin-lid covered with cloth of gold, ornamented with gold cord and tassels, that had been polished up with metal powder" (pg. 99). In particular, the drawing-room, "upholstered in pink cretonne... The whole room was full of furniture and knick-knacks" (pg. 100). He "himself superintended the arrangements, chose the wallpapers, supplementer the furniture...preferably...antiques... and...the upholstering " (pg. 115). He is spending way too much time caring about how he will appear to society, then caring for his family. The place on Ivan's body where much of the pain is as he is dying came from a wound that received while decorating his house. While "showing the upholsterer...how he wanted the hangings draped, he made a false step and slipped, but...only knocked his side against the knob of the window frame" (pg. 116). This injury is a metaphor for how in the long run trying to make ones appearance really pretty without bettering the insides, which relates to how Ivan Ilych is wasting his relationships, and thus his life.
can someone please tell me how to make an intro and a conclusion in about 100 words?

the book cover of
Juliette Benzoni book
La Chimère d'Or des Borgias
click on the photo ☺
Dans le lit des Rois (1983)
re-published with great success
Dans le lit des Reines (1984)
While I was preparing this
page, dedicated to our dearest friend Juliette,
I was thinking what can I tell our visitors
which I have not told yet? How to captivate
everyone and not repeating myself with my
narrative? But then I said to myself: "
Linda, surfers who land on this or Frédérique's page, are
fans of the author Juliette Benzoni. They want
to know news, facts and how the well-being is of
the Queen of history books! So without ado here
are a few lovely memories of our newest meeting
with our Juliette on Sunday 15 May 2011 at
Juliette and "les filles des grands chemins" has
grown a wonderful, profound and exceptional
friendship. Shared also with Hélène - Danette -
as we call her, the founder of the name "Les Benzonettes". With her sweet and enjoyable
manner she complements us wonderfully, just like
my daughter Claudia did on her visit.
All three of us live in another city or in my
case in another country (Switzerland), but when our dearest
friend invites us to come and see her, we
overjoyfully pack our suitcases and travel to
Saint-Mandé, by train and car! Just as we did
last Sunday.
The Benzonettes meeting place in the afteroon
was by the beautiful Park Bois de Vincennes in Saint-Mandé. In front of Juliette Benzoni's
house, we played our little game of who should
ring the bell this time (see my other reports) ! In one accord we put our fingers
to the bell waiting, that it would be opened for
us. We were expected and the door swung
open! A look left to see the roses, a look back
to see that the beautiful tree in the garden had
been truncated and we ran almost up the steps,
hugging and kissing Anne, Juliette's daughter,
caress quickly Oliver, our hairy friend and then
enter the now well known living-room of
We found our "Queen" in good health and soon the
room was filled with laughter and talking all
together. We had found "home" We sipped with
delight the cool champagne, enjoyed the fresh
cherries and ate once again dessert from "LeNôtre"
one of the best addresses in Paris. One just
cannot resist a Tarte (cake) of apricot and
pistache, dressed with pâtissière aux amandes!
With immense joy we told
Juliette about Facebook and that her faithful
readers had begun to leave personal messages
there for her! We had printed all of the comments out
and delivered them to her. How can I describe
the look on her face when we told her about all
this? Let me only say so much dear visitors,
this amazing woman who has written over 78 books
(it would be 86 after 7.2. 2016 on the day of
her passing away),
was so moved by all the admiration and devotion
she gets from her readers all over the world.
She sends all of you, her deep and sincerest
thank you for all the years you have read her
books and still do!
With had already on the day before decided to
ask Juliette, if she would alow us to record a short message for our websites. To our great
surprise, she agreed immediately to do
that! Oops... it would take too long to
explain what a sound-recorder Linda is,
especially when you have some giggling girls in
the background ☺ I know I am not "Dame
Marion Sarraut" - but my 1...2...3... was almost
professional..! I confess, it was one of those
moments when you would like that time stands
still! A chuckling Juliette, a Linda on her knees
(with my short gown...)and three such dear friends as
Hélène and Frédérique, supporting this incredible
event fervently!
Time went by just like in the
"Time Machine" but Juliette had yet
another surprise for us in store. As we talked
about her newest book "La chimère d'Or des
Borgia" which will come out on 1 June 2011,we
were told by our dearest Juliette, that after
five books without dedication, her
next book,
La Chimère d'Or des Borgias
shall be dedicated to
"Les Filles des Grands Chemins"
Claudia, Frédérique, Hélène and
My friends, no words
are needed here to illustrate our happiness and
thankfulness towards our favourite author, our
dearest friend. This honor is beyond anything we
could ever excpect. To be forever united in this
fashion with Juliette Benzoni does not need more
words - except to say:

You never want your house to be the one in the neighborhood that everyone is complaining about, or that looks like it doesn't belong because its older or poorly taken care of. This can be socially embarrassing and it devalues your property. If this is happening to you there are a few things you want to consider doing, so you can help improve your house and make it look better with one investment. New vinyl siding through a place like Griffitts Construction Siding and Windows could change the exterior of your house, and provide these different benefits.
Improve Energy Efficiency and Utility Bills
You can purchase vinyl siding that's insulated, and the siding can stop air loss and help keep the temperature regulated inside the home. This will improve your heating and cooling costs throughout the year. Talk with the vinyl siding contractors about the most efficient options and if there are federal or state tax rebate incentives.
Modernize the Property
The vinyl siding will instantly update the exterior look of your home. This siding can be a solid color, it can be engineered to look like wood or stone, and it's going to be clean and easy to maintain when it's put on the home. You may also want to add new shutters to help improve the look. A house that looks more modern, updated and maintained will be easier to sell in the future.
Get a Reliable Product
When the vinyl siding panels are manufactured they are molded into shape, so the color in the panel goes all through each piece. This reduces the sight of scratches of blemishes. The vinyl isn't going to dent or bend from regular wearing, it doesn't fade, and it's easy to pressure wash clean regularly. This is one of the best siding materials you can get for the home.
The siding can also protect against moisture damage from the outside. If you want to get a product that you can be proud to have on your own, without having to spend a small fortune to get it, this will be a great material for you to choose to do your update. There are a lot of different things that you can do to change the look of your house, but with new vinyl siding you'll be protecting your house from moisture and pests, you'll be helping it look new and clean, and you'll be investing in a high quality siding material.Share

Alec Baldwin and Anne Heche starred on Broadway in this hilarious adaptation of the classic comedy by Ben Hecht and Charles McArthur, directed on Broadway by Walter Bobbie. The play is about Oscar Jaffe, the egomaniacal Broadway director, and Lily Garland, the chorus girl he transformed into a leading lady. Bankrupt, with his career on a downslide, Oscar boards the Twentieth Century Limited and encounters Lily, now a temperamental Hollywood star. He'll do anything to get her back under contract and back in his bed, but his former protégé will have nothing to do with him. All of the action takes place on board the legendary Twentieth Century train from Chicago to New York City where Oscar has 20 hours to persuade Lily to return to Broadway in his upcoming show. If he fails, it's the end of the line.
For 7 men and 3 women, with doubling. Single set.

There are a lot of things I like about our church and the church leadership… The church I go to is called Hornby Presbyterian Community Church (HPCC) in Christchurch New Zealand…
What makes me proud of our church is the fact they they have decided every year to have 3 weeks of prayer.
Why does this excite me?
Well first of all is that it is Biblical… all throughout the Bible we are told to pray first… It would be easy for a church like ours to try and get stuck into doing community work and start big ideas to have through the year… but here is the thing, unless we pray first all of the things that we are doing haven't been given to God to deal with.
And Secondly… it's not about us.
It's easy to get stuck into the rut of praying for ourselves… our own needs… our own problems. However what my church leadership has done (and what other churches around the world continue to do) is given us an example of putting prayer first, but it's more than that… it's reflecting as job of the Holy Spirit – interceding for others.
What a great way to start the year… bringing the needs of others before the altar of God.
It shows that it's not about us… it's about a God who cares for all.
It shows that in all things pray first… or as it says in 1 Timothy
"I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them." 1 Timothy 2:1

The EU supports UNRWA's efforts
It is time for nearly half a million Palestine refugee children to come back to school, and this autumn, 703 UNRWA schools will open their doors across Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. But most of these children will be returning to school in very difficult situations of instability, conflict and fear.
Their education is threatened, in Gaza, by an extended blockade, and in the West Bank by displacements and movement restrictions. Going back to school will be especially difficult for Palestine refugee students from Syria, as the ongoing conflict disrupts their lives - closing some schools and overcrowding others, and forcing many students to flee to Lebanon or Jordan, where they must begin again with new curriculums, new systems and no sense of stability.
UNRWA made a commitment to ensure a good, reliable education for Palestine refugees. Despite the many challenges, the conflict and the distress that this Back-to-School season presents to our students and staff, we continue to stand by that pledge. UNRWA is there to work for the development, dignity and stability of Palestine refugees - and that starts with their education.
For most children, going back to school means returning to a familiar place and seeing old friends, but for Akram, a 12-year-old Palestine refugee in Syria, everything will be different when he starts sixth grade this fall. He used to live in Yarmouk and attend the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) Tarshiha School, but in December 2012, he was forced to flee the encroaching violence with his family, leaving behind his home, his school and a familiar way of life.
Last year, 10-year-old Rama's school in Syria was closed, but this fall she is resuming her studies at an UNRWA centre in Damascus. Here, she shares a message with other Palestine refugee children.
Aya Nimr, a 10-year old Palestine refugee girl, grew up in Yalda, south-east of Damascus. She has fond memories of living there, but eventually the ongoing conflict in Syria, which injured one of her uncles and killed another, forced her family to flee. When they arrived in Lebanon, in mid-2012, "we thought that we had reached a haven of stability and that we could return to the normal pace of our lives, but every two weeks, we had to pack and move from one house to another."

This fall, nearly 500,000 Palestine refugee children will go back to more than 700 UNRWA schools in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. In all of these areas, however, UNRWA students and their schools face serious challenges, including demolitions and access restrictions in the West Bank and serious poverty in Gaza. The ongoing conflict in Syria has been particularly hard on young Palestine refugees, including those who have fled to Jordan and Lebanon. Many have left behind their homes, their friends and their schools. As children around the world go back to school, these young Palestine refugees share the story of their schools

This fall, Palestine refugee students go back to school in a region in turmoil. Anwar Abu-Sakieneh -- UNRWA Spokesperson in Jordan -- talks about the challenges facing the nearly 500,000 Palestine refugees who will return to more than 700 UNRWA schools in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip
As children around the world prepare to go back to school this fall, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) regrets to announce that over half of its schools in Syria have closed, affecting nearly two thirds of Palestine refugee students there.

Anas Hajajleh, an 11-year-old boy, will begin fifth grade in September 2013 in one of the West Bank schools operated by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). The thought of seeing his friends and teachers again and studying the subjects he loves – he plans to one day be a doctor – puts a smile on his face. This year, however, what used to be a five-minute journey to school will be an hour-long commute, and that's not the only problem he will face going back to school this fall.
Click here to read more.
When 10-year-old Anas Hajajleh goes back to school this fall, the journey will take him half an hour. Before the expansion of the West Bank Barrier cut him off from the UNRWA school in his village, Al Walaja, it took him five minutes. Still, Anas is happy to be seeing his teachers and his friends again, and not willing to let the opportunity of an education pass him by. Watch Anas talk about his experience.
Meet Mayad Hmeed. She is 10 years old and eager to begin sixth grade at the UNRWA Al-Shate` School in Gaza City. She is eager to see her friends again and remind her fellow students to continue their studies despite all the challenges.
Kinan Murad Mohammad Hendi, a 7-year-old who lives in Amman New Camp [Wihdat], knows that going back to school this fall is important. He is eager to begin the second grade, with the opportunity to read, study and learn to understand the world around him.
Fourteen-year-old Rawan, a Palestine refugee from Syria, is determined to master English, the language students learn in Jordan. Along with two of her siblings - Rawad, 10, and Khaled, 6 - Rawan is among the 202 Palestine refugees from Syria who will attend UNRWA schools in Irbid this fall.

Central Gujarat is characterised by its high population density and a well-developed agricultural sector, especially in the 'Charotar' tract which roughly consists of the districts of Kheda and Anand, located between the Mahi and Sabarmati rivers. The soil of this tract is fertile and particularly suitable for tobacco. Visitors in the 18th century CE were impressed by the prosperity and potential of the region. By the end of the 19th century, these districts had already become highly commercialised, and with the Green Revolution of the 1960s the agricultural economy and agro-based industries flourished. During this period, the provincial town of Anand developed into a centre for agricultural trade and industries.
Anand remained a provincial town but its urban growth gained momentum after 1955 when Vallabh Vidyanagar was developed as an educational centre, attracting students and staff from across the region. The administrative division of Kheda district made Anand town the capital of the new Anand district in 1997. Various government offices were established, giving further impetus to urban growth. The town has now developed into a regional centre for business, employment, education, government, and increasingly also for settlement by rural migrants. In the 1950s, Anand was still a small (10 km-wide) town with a total population of 25,767 residents (Charotar Sarva Sandra 1954). Today the urban conglomeration known as Anand consists of Anand town, Vallabh Vidyanagar, and several adjoining villages: Gamdi, Mogri, Vithal Udyognagar, Karamsad, and parts of Bakrol and Jitodiya, and has a total population of 209,410 (Census 2011).
Migration pattern:
Till recently, it was mainly members of the landowning agricultural community known as Patels who migrated abroad. Patels migrated to East Africa in the early part of the twentieth century and from there to Britain in the 1960s and 1970s; more recently they have begun moving to the UK and US. With the increasing accessibility of student visas to the UK, Australia and the USA, migration is mediated through visa agents and no longer depends on caste-based networks. This has opened up the possibility of going abroad to other communities and classes, including Christians, Muslims, and the lower castes. More recently, skilled and unskilled labour migration to Gulf destinations is also taking place from this region, facilitated by agents in Mumbai or by village-based networks.
According to a survey conducted by ProGlo and the Gujarat Institute of Development Research, the top five migration destinations of migrants from Anand and Kheda districts are: 1. United Kingdom (37%), 2. United States of America (32%), 3. Australia (12.8%), 4. Canada (6.7%), 5. Saudi Arabia (17%). To read more about this survey, please use the links to WP 6, RR 7 and RR 8 below.
NRI investments and donations in Central Gujarat:
Like the other groups studied in this programme, migrants from Central Gujarat maintain strong ties with their home region. One of the ways they do so is by investing in real estate and by engaging in philanthropic activities.
The real estate sector in Anand experienced a boom after the town was made district headquarters in 1997. Another boost to the sector came from the influx of people dislocated from neighbouring villages by the 2002 Gujarat riots. Rapid urbanisation led to large-scale conversion of agricultural land, construction of new housing societies, and resale of small plots to investors. Housing prices continued to rise steeply up to 2010, but in recent years the market has stabilised. According to local real estate brokers, half of the investments in real estate in Anand come from NRIs. Although this claim cannot be verified, ProGlo PhD scholar Sanderien Verstappen's research revealed that NRIs indeed participate in the real estate market in various ways. Often parents of NRIs use remittances sent by their children to buy plots of land in the town. They invest in property because they want their children to have a place of their own if they decide to return. Others buy real estate only as an investment. In addition, some migrants have been actively involved in the real estate business, buying tracts of land and converting it to non-agricultural land for resale. In order to carry out this business, they maintain close social links with the region and visit home regularly.
(Source: Sanderien Verstappen)
The Gujarati diaspora are also enthusiastic philanthropists, frequently donating to various developmental activities in their home towns and villages, especially to help improve health care, education, and public facilities such as roads, parks, and water-purifying plants. Older migrants feel especially connected to the region and express the need to 'give back'.

-AIR FORCE VS DUKE. Duke has not been tested yet, but they should be today and they better be on upset alert. Air Force absolutely pounded Stanford on Stanfords floor to advance to the semifinals, and followed that up with a blowout win on the road at Colorado. This team is playing like a top 25 caliber team. If they win this tournament, that should definitely be enough to put them into the rankings. If they win either this game or the consolation game, I think that should be enough. This is very important to Air Force because their schedule is rather weak, but this tournament allows them to face some quality competition, which is something they really need.
-TEXAS TECH VS MARQUETTE. Marquette struggled against very weak competition in their first two games, but snapped out of it when they blew out Detroit to advance to the semifinals. Texas Tech had dominated both of their tournament games, but they are coming off a game where they struggled to get by North Dakota State. This should be a quality win for whoever pulls this out, which will look good on their NCAA Tourney resume.
-De Paul vs Kentucky
-Oklahoma vs Memphis
-UCLA vs Chaminade
-Georgia Tech vs Purdue
Once again, this appears to be the strongest overall field among all the exempt tournaments. De Paul has played very poorly and Kentucky isnt likely to have much trouble with them, but Memphis, UCLA, Georgia Tech and Purdue have all looked pretty good. UCLA took on a tough BYU team, but other than that none of these teams have really been tested yet, so it will be interesting to see how they all do against each other. A lot of these teams will be in the tournament picture come March, so that means the committee will be looking at these games to see how they did against each other. As always, these games are important to the selection and seeding process.
-Both semifinal games were good games. Iowa hung with Alabama for most of the game, but Bama pulled away at the end and wound up winning. Xavier and Villanova was close all the way through. I dont recall a point in the game where a team had a bigger lead than seven points. It seesawed back and forth, but at the end Xavier was ahead and picked up a huge win, which they needed more than Nova. Nova will have a lot more opportunities at statement wins in conference than Xavier. Alabama and Xavier will play for the title. Iowa will face Villanova in the 3rd place game, but the selection committee doesnt consider it a 3rd place game. They just consider it a regular season game between Iowa and Villanova. The same can be said for Xavier vs Alabama.
-WINTHROP AT MARYLAND. Maryland has been playing great basketball. They won the Coaches vs Cancer Classic and are 5-0 on the year. Winthrop played well against North Carolina in the NIT, but couldnt quite pull off the upset. Theyll have another shot to get a statement win tonight, which is something they need if they want to make a case that theyre an NCAA at-large team, but as good as Maryland is playing right now it wont be easy.
-SANTA CLARA AT CALIFORNIA. Cal needs to rebound from their loss to San Diego State. A win improves them to 2-1.
-SAN FRANCISCO AT OHIO STATE. Ohio State is 4-0, but really hasnt been tested yet. It isnt likely they will be tonight either.
-A new Bracket Projection will be posted later today. I will also post my personal top 25, which has nothing to do with the projection. The projection is an attempt to guess the committee, whereas my top 25 is simply a list of who I personally think the 25 best teams are. I can say there will most likely be a lot of changes in both my bracket and top 25.

anCnoc Single Malt Whisky
AnCnoc whisky is the product of the The Knockdhu distillery, which was established in 1892 by John Morrison, who had recently bought the Knock estate. With the Great North Railway close by and a spring of pure clear water running through the estate, Morisson saw a golden opportunity to build a modern distillery in the village of Knock. The name 'AnCnoc' came from the locals, who named the Knock Hill where the springs were found after the Gaelic for black hill - ancnoc. Knockdu distillery uses traditional methods but pride themselves on making distinctly modern tasting whisky.
Ancnoc single malt whiskies are considered to be very dynamic and exciting, and definitely exude much of the typical Highland style that whisky lovers have become accustomed to. Knockdu distillery acheive this with the use of copper stills to condense the vaporised alcohol which is then matured in American and Spanish oak barrels. These barrels are stored in dunnage warehouse, built with thick granite walls which stabilise the temperature and allow for consistent whisky maturation – the end result, a light, crisp and modern single malt whisky!
