Cyber Security for Solicitors
New research has found that almost half of solicitors practicing today consider cyber security one of the biggest issues facing their firms. Of the professionals questioned on behalf of the Law Society of Scotland, 42% of respondents said they are concerned about online security, citing data protection as the primary issue.
But this comes as no surprise. The risk of legal documents going missing within a practice, or them falling into the wrong hands, is paramount within the sector as a whole. The most serious threat is that of a breach of confidentiality, which can result in catastrophic loss of reputation. The substantial fines associated with such an issue can also affect the entire existence of the practice.
However, the survey launched last month also highlighted that over 90% of solicitors still used the internet on a daily basis for work. This proves that there is a key role for online functionality for employees within the legal sector – when the appropriate security is in place.
The Positive Role of Technology
The findings of the report were warmly received here at Curavar, as they have shown that solicitors are increasingly optimistic about how technology can improve the efficiency of their business.
Our own research has shown that, following the implementation of our increased levels of protection, with options such as multiple firewall protection, solicitors are able to increase business efficiency, enable remote workers more effectively, and communicate with clients and service providers in a secure and reliable manner. With no local server required, improved system maintenance is possible while still making savings over traditional dedicated IT Support costs.
The need for those in the legal profession to choose the most secure and reliable systems has never been more vital.
The Need for Security
As the reality of Brexit is looming over us, uncertainty is proving to be the enemy of business planning, but there's one thing that is not negotiable; security. Recent news stories have proven the need for stringent online security across the legal profession.
While commercial organisations and individuals are choosing more sophisticated methods to keep themselves secure online, for some criminals, the solicitor is seen as easy prey. It is up to the firms themselves to find the scalable and flexible protection for their infrastructure to ensure their businesses comply.
The Solicitors Regulation Authority estimates that 12% of all IT directors and partners think they've already experienced an online attack, while 80% think there's a likelihood of their legal firm becoming a victim.
There are many ways in which any organisation within the legal services sector can protect themselves, and improve their business operations at the same time.
Keep Safe Online
The easiest way for any legal firm to stay safe online is to choose the most secure service in the first place.
Security, control and enablement of employees to work remotely from multi-sites or from home is vital for anyone working in the legal industry. Being able to access legal and confidential documents and data with complete confidence is of paramount importance.
Curavar's VDI – Desktop as a Service (DaaS) – is a secure and highly efficient cloud based infrastructure where data is protected from online threats as well the physical risk of stolen PC's, laptops, and mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets.
With a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure and Mobile Device Management system you can ensure complete company data security for your practice and your clients. Legal practices are also deploying MDM to make employees more productive, turning mobile devices into productivity tools.
When away from the office, sometimes the only device a solicitor will have is their mobile phone or tablet. By providing instant access to all the most salient business intelligence for a case, work rates can be improved instantaneously.
Extensive control and manageability of mobile devices and users with the MDM system also provides added security. If a smart phone or tablet with important legal documents on it goes missing or is stolen, the device can be remotely wiped and locked by the practice. This effectively safeguards all confidential documents, while still providing 'any time, anywhere' access to maximise efficiency.
It is possible that 80% of solicitors are prone to serious security risks from different angles.

There are very few deadlines in my life. I think the only story I've actually written to a deadline since I started writing full time was for Windstorm Creative's slug anthology. I figured since my first sale was to a Windstorm Creative anthology, it was worth going out of my way to write a story that included a slug to submit to them again. Also, as themed topics go, "something with a slug" has a fair amount of freedom.
At any rate, due to the almost complete lack of meaningful deadlines for freelance sci-fi writers who haven't gotten book deals yet, I decided to create my own deadline. Four stories a year. That way, I can always submit something to Writers of the Future, as long as I'm still eligible.
Unfortunately, last year, I followed the letter of that law and not the spirit. I went easy on myself and counted two pieces that don't count for WotF -- a children's piece and the first draft of my novel. So, after being ahead in stories for years, I'm finally out of pieces that WotF hasn't seen.
Between editing my first novel and working on my second novel, it'd be really easy to stop writing shorts now... But, I've actually developed a taste for them over the last five years. So, I think I will write a story specifically for the June WotF deadline. It'll be interesting to see how long I keep it up for after that. My dedication to submitting to WotF has never really been tested before.

Lots of vehicle movements this week...
- Craig collected his 123GT on Monday, and called yesterday to say how delighted he is with the new engine (in stock factory guise)
- Marcus collected his P1800S on Tuesday, no feedback on this one yet.
- John delivered his 121 for some routine work, and said how delighted they are with the engine we built last year - absolutely stock B20A motor, so it pulls like a train from low down.
- The second photo shows John's investment in Zircotec'd manifold & downpipe, and the rebuilt Stromberg
- Will collected Amy's 132 rally Amazon today, just as well my little girl wasn't here since she would definitely have shed some tears. Will knows his Amazons, I think he said that he's had three of them.
- And I have to publish his email, since it's such a relief that "Olga" has gone to a good home...
- "Very good to meet you today and thank you for picking me up in Diss . So Olga . Well , I have just had a terrific run back home in what must be one of the best driving Amazons in the country . It is so positive to steer and the engine is so willing that I found myself pulling back on the throttle as it just seems to want to rev and rev .That, coupled with lovely supportive seats and a firm but resilient ride makes for a car that one could become seriously fond of ! I shall try to keep her up to standard and use her as my car of choice for a while . We are off to Normandy in November for a light hearted navigation event, so I shall see how we get on . Please apologies to Amy, for me taking her car away from her and wish her well with the mx5, another really rather good car and very different from an Amazon, which is probably a good thing . Anyway, God bless all at Amazon cars and keep up the good work . Very best wishes, Will."
- Expected to disappear within 10 days
- Trevor should be collecting Mike H's pale blue PV544 rally "YAF" on Saturday
- Nathan may be collecting his Amazon at some point
- Mike & Lorna should be taking the dark blue PV544 rally "UG" home (with it's trailer) next week, and out on the Rally of the Tests in November
- Amy will be navigating on the same event in Paul Dyas' Amazon
- I'll be navigating in Gareth Hockridge's Amazon - I feel bound to say that Amy could well show me the way home, she's currently on pretty good form!
- Amy & I will be competing in 10days, in Emma's PV544 on Saturday afternoon & night: the Devil's Own rally up in the Lakes.
- Our Anderson 22' came home from its mooring on the Orwell River, always a sad event that another year has passed by!

Snack Review
Taste test: This Mexican version of Cheetos was supposed to be shaped like vampire fangs, but they didn't off-hand look like fangs because they were very dark red in color, which is quite different from the white (or something close) fangs that you tend to see on any vampire who sees his dentist twice a year. The shape was reasonably fang-like, and the size was about an inch long, which was reasonable to use as fangs to hold up to your mouth. Some of our tasters saw the shape and instead though that they looked like some body part other than fangs (which we won't mention). We crunched in to find that the puffs were crisp and soft, with lots of very hot and spicy seasoning.
The unusual thing about this bag of Cheetos was that it also included a packet of hot sauce — labeled as Salsa Colmillos (Spanish for fang salsa) on the front and Salsa Picante on the back. The salsa packet was a first for Cheetos that we're aware of, and it was a bit strange because the puffs were already plenty hot. We poured the packet out into a dipping dish to find it was also quite dark, almost the same color as the puffs. We dipped a few pieces into it, and was fairly hot, though no hotter than the puffs, with a bit of sweetness as well. The dip was kind of unnecessary, but it was good.
Shop: Buy Cheetos on Amazon #ad
Smell test: Very zesty.

As you can imagine we get to see quite a lot of bedding here at Children's Rooms but every now and again something creates a real stir in the office … this is one of those times.
There is obviously a huge choice of unicorn bedding on the market so it's fab to see a version that's just that bit different … and the fun doesn't stop with this legendary creature as the powerful T Rex bursts on to the scene in vibrant lime green.
If you have a fan of the undersea world in your household then why not go for the shark with it's striking flash of red and bold blue?
Or the friendly narwhal which is often dubbed the unicorn of the sea. These magnificent porpoises live in Arctic coastal waters but our version is a little easier to find. The narwhal is particularly suitable for younger children and will give you a great starting point if you like to make up your own bedtime stories.
Finally we have the teddy bear and the cat which are two favourites.
The cat has been cleverly designed to make it fit in to a young teenager's room as well as being suitable for a smaller child while the charming simplicity of the teddy bear gives it classic appeal.
Each pillow case is shaped to provide detail specific to the creature it represents and four of the duvet covers have additional accents, like feet or a tail. The reverse of each duvet cover features a repeat pattern appropriate to the over all design.
You can find out more about all six of our NEW shaped single bedding designs HERE.

as they say, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
i like to apply that reasoning to some of the products i just can't get away from, one being:
(not the usual 'packaging'; this was obviously a Halloween special)
Bath & Bodyworks's 'Japanese Cherry Blossom' !!!
I know there are a million fragrances out there, but no matter how many i've tried- i always seem to come back to this one. This particular bottle was $10 or $12, i can't remember which since it's been awhile since I bought it... but you can always get it at a decent price.
I particularly love this in the winter/fall, because (though it's categorized as a 'sexy' scent) that's exactly what it reminds me of. It's timeless and I feel warm, cozy, and yes- maybe even a little sexy- when i wear it :P
Would definitely recommend!
What's your favorite winter fragrance? :)

As incentive, my reward for reaching 10,000 words will be to make a batch of savoury muffins and enjoy with much butter.
I am not at 10,000 words, but one day I will be and we will all rejoice for the savoury muffin fest.
In terms of the writing itself, I think I have direction. After writing yesterday and today some ideas have grown wings and are flying into my word document. (That was a bit of a gross metaphor but I'm keeping it.) I don't know if these ideas are worth 50,000 words, but they should at least get me to the savoury muffin line. Don't the experts say to break big goals into small, trackable goals? Savoury muffins are helping me achieve, campers. Achieve!
In terms of my indoor plants, the names decided are: Zelda Zamperini and Spikelet (the succulent). My plants, alongside cups of tea, are getting me through the day. Together, we got this.

Netflix's Most Expensive Drama Ever Recreates Life of Queen Elizabeth II
II. Erzsébetről forgatja eddigi legköltségesebb sorozatát a Netflix. Egy kis olvasmány szószedettel és feladattal.
Netflix's Most Expensive Drama Ever Recreates Life of Queen Elizabeth II
The tagline: "Two houses, two courts, one crown."
Netflix is putting £100 million ($156,814,000) into an original series about the Queen, Telegraph reports.
The series, which will be called The Crown, will be the most expensive show made by Netflix and the first to be filmed in the U.K. It will follow her life story in 60 episodes over 6 seasons from her wedding day in 1947 until today.
Claire Foy, known for playing Anne Boleyn in Wolf Hall, will play Queen Elizabeth in the first two seasons. At that point, producers will have to decide whether or not to replace her as her character ages.
After Downton Abbey's raging success, Netflix is likely hoping that this will be the show to finally win a major Emmy. It's two most popular shows last year, House of Cards and Orange is the New Black, only won in the technical "Creative Arts" categories.
The Crown has been described as "the inside story of two of the most famous addresses in the world – Buckingham Palace and 10 Downing Street – and the intrigues, love lives and machinations behind the great events that shaped the second half of the 20th century."
It is due to air starting next year.

A Bible Lesson study aid
For Sunday, November 7, 1999, including excerpts from BibleTexts Online Bible Commentary,
with 3 Bible versions' texts, plus other biblical resources to enrich the study of the current Bible Lesson.
This webpage includes links to textual commentary and to glossary articles that describe people, places, terms, and books of the Bible. To access those links, just click on "[To use other Bible research tools to further explore this citation - click here]." To use the Sunday School preparation aid, browse http://www.bibletexts.com/bt-tw-ss.htm.
NOTE REGARDING "THE BIBLE" AND THE 3 BIBLE VERSIONS USED HERE: The original Hebrew and Greek texts are what actually constitute "the Bible." All other versions, whether in English or in Chinese or in Aramaic, whether produced in 384 A.D. or in 1611 A.D. or in 1996 A.D., are merely translations indirectly derived from those original Hebrew and Greek texts. The BibleTexts Online Bible Commentary at http://www.bibletexts.com/bt.htm provides verse-by-verse textual corrections that are based upon the most current knowledge of those original Hebrew and Greek texts. Most of those corrections are relevant only to the KJV, because most modern versions such as the NRSV and the TEV were translated from Hebrew and Greek texts that are much more consistent with "the original texts" than those Hebrew and Greek texts from which the 1611 KJV was translated. In the KJV most of the substantive errors are due to the faulty Hebrew and Greek texts from which the KJV was translated. (See S&H 139:15.) For more details on these issues, you can browse http://www.bibletexts.com/kjv-tr.htm.
Wherever there are substantial differences between the wording of the KJV and the NRSV, the NRSV should be considered as more accurately representing the wording of the original texts. Of the three English language Bible versions used below (the KJV, the NRSV, and the TEV), the NRSV gives the best word-for-word representation of the wording of original texts, and the TEV gives the best phrase-by-phrase representation of the originally intended meaning of original texts.
<GT> 1 Corinthians 15 - [To use other Bible research tools to further explore this citation - click here]
KJV - 34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not;
NRSV - 34 Come to a sober and right mind, and sin no more;...
TEV - "Our Resurrection" - 33 Do not be fooled. "Bad companions ruin good character." 34 Come back to your right senses and stop your sinful ways. I declare to your shame that some of you do not know God.
KJV - 1 Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee:
2 I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me. 3 He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise. 8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
NRSV - 1 Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me, for in you my soul takes refuge;...
2 I cry to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me. 3 He will send from heaven and save me, he will put to shame those who trample on me. God will send forth his steadfast love and his faithfulness.
5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
7 My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing and make melody. 8 Awake, my soul! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awake the dawn.
11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
TEV - "A Prayer for Help" - 1 Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful, because I come to you for safety. In the shadow of your wings I find protection until the raging storms are over. 2 I call to God, the Most High, to God, who supplies my every need. 3 He will answer from heaven and save me; he will defeat my oppressors. God will show me his constant love and faithfulness. 4 I am surrounded by enemies, who are like man-eating lions. Their teeth are like spears and arrows; their tongues are like sharp swords. 5 Show your greatness in the sky, O God, and your glory over all the earth. 6 My enemies have spread a net to catch me; I am overcome with distress. They dug a pit in my path, but fell into it themselves. 7 I have complete confidence, O God; I will sing and praise you! 8 Wake up, my soul! Wake up, my harp and lyre! I will wake up the sun. 9 I will thank you, O Lord, among the nations. I will praise you among the peoples. 10 Your constant love reaches the heavens; your faithfulness touches the skies. 11 Show your greatness in the sky, O God, and your glory over all the earth.
KJV - 5 Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.
8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
NRSV - 5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; our God is merciful.
8 For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
TEV - "A Man Saved from Death Praises God" - 1 I love the LORD, because he hears me; he listens to my prayers. 2 He listens to me every time I call to him. 3 The danger of death was all around me; the horrors of the grave closed in on me; I was filled with fear and anxiety. 4 Then I called to the LORD, "I beg you, LORD, save me!" 5 The LORD is merciful and good; our God is compassionate. 6 The LORD protects the helpless; when I was in danger, he saved me. 7 Be confident, my heart, because the LORD has been good to me. 8 The LORD saved me from death; he stopped my tears and kept me from defeat. 9 And so I walk in the presence of the LORD in the world of the living. 10 I kept on believing, even when I said, "I am completely crushed," 11 even when I was afraid and said, "No one can be trusted." 12 What can I offer the LORD for all his goodness to me? 13 I will bring a wine offering to the LORD, to thank him for saving me. 14 In the assembly of all his people I will give him what I have promised.

KJV - 1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good
NRSV - 1 In the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth,
3 Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. 4 And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.
26 Then God said, "Let us make humankind in our image, according to our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth." 27 So God created humankind in his image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. 28 God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth."
31 God saw everything that he had made, and indeed, it was very good...
TEV - "The Story of Creation" - 1 In the beginning, when God created the universe, 2 the earth was formless and desolate. The raging ocean that covered everything was engulfed in total darkness, and the power of God was moving over the water. 3 Then God commanded, "Let there be light" -- and light appeared. 4 God was pleased with what he saw. Then he separated the light from the darkness, 5 and he named the light "Day" and the darkness "Night." Evening passed and morning came -- that was the first day.
26 Then God said, "And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us. They will have power over the fish, the birds, and all animals, domestic and wild, large and small." 27 So God created human beings, making them to be like himself. He created them male and female, 28 blessed them, and said, "Have many children, so that your descendants will live all over the earth and bring it under their control. I am putting you in charge of the fish, the birds, and all the wild animals. 29 I have provided all kinds of grain and all kinds of fruit for you to eat; 30 but for all the wild animals and for all the birds I have provided grass and leafy plants for food" -- and it was done. 31 God looked at everything he had made, and he was very pleased. Evening passed and morning came -- that was the sixth day.
KJV - 1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
NRSV - 1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all their multitude.
TEV - "The Story of Creation" - 1 And so the whole universe was completed. 2 By the seventh day God finished what he had been doing and stopped working. 3 He blessed the seventh day and set it apart as a special day, because by that day he had completed his creation and stopped working. 4 And that is how the universe was created.

KJV - 6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground. 7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. 8 And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. 9 And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22 And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
NRSV - 6 but a stream would rise from the earth, and water the whole face of the ground -- 7 then the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being. 8 And the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east; and there he put the man whom he had formed. 9 Out of the ground the LORD God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food, the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
21 So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then he took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. 22 And the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man.
TEV - "The Garden of Eden" - 4b When the LORD God made the universe, 5 there were no plants on the earth and no seeds had sprouted, because he had not sent any rain, and there was no one to cultivate the land; 6 but water would come up from beneath the surface and water the ground. 7 Then the LORD God took some soil from the ground and formed a man out of it; he breathed life-giving breath into his nostrils and the man began to live. 8 Then the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the East, and there he put the man he had formed. 9 He made all kinds of beautiful trees grow there and produce good fruit. In the middle of the garden stood the tree that gives life and the tree that gives knowledge of what is good and what is bad.
21 Then the LORD God made the man fall into a deep sleep, and while he was sleeping, he took out one of the man's ribs and closed up the flesh. 22 He formed a woman out of the rib and brought her to him. 23 Then the man said, "At last, here is one of my own kind -- Bone taken from my bone, and flesh from my flesh. "Woman' is her name because she was taken out of man." 24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united with his wife, and they become one.
KJV - 1 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion;
2 Shake thyself from the dust;
NRSV - 1 Awake, awake, put on your strength, O Zion!...
2 Shake yourself from the dust,...
TEV - "God Will Rescue Jerusalem" - 1 Jerusalem, be strong and great again! Holy city of God, clothe yourself with splendor! The heathen will never enter your gates again. 2 Shake yourself free, Jerusalem! Rise from the dust and sit on your throne! Undo the chains that bind you, captive people of Zion!
<B5> Genesis 3 - [To use other Bible research tools to further explore this citation - click here]
KJV - 1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? 2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. 4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. 6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
13 And the Lord God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
22 And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever: 23 Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
NRSV - 1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other wild animal that the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God say, "You shall not eat from any tree in the garden'?" 2 The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden; 3 but God said, "You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, nor shall you touch it, or you shall die."' 4 But the serpent said to the woman, "You will not die; 5 for God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." 6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate.
13 Then the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this that you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent tricked me, and I ate."
22 Then the LORD God said, "See, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever" -- 23 therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
TEV - "The Disobedience of Man" - 1 Now the snake was the most cunning animal that the LORD God had made. The snake asked the woman, "Did God really tell you not to eat fruit from any tree in the garden?" 2 "We may eat the fruit of any tree in the garden," the woman answered, 3 "except the tree in the middle of it. God told us not to eat the fruit of that tree or even touch it; if we do, we will die." 4 The snake replied, "That's not true; you will not die. 5 God said that because he knows that when you eat it, you will be like God and know what is good and what is bad." 6 The woman saw how beautiful the tree was and how good its fruit would be to eat, and she thought how wonderful it would be to become wise. So she took some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, and he also ate it. 7 As soon as they had eaten it, they were given understanding and realized that they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and covered themselves. 8 That evening they heard the LORD God walking in the garden, and they hid from him among the trees. 9 But the LORD God called out to the man, "Where are you?" 10 He answered, "I heard you in the garden; I was afraid and hid from you, because I was naked." 11 "Who told you that you were naked?" God asked. "Did you eat the fruit that I told you not to eat?" 12 The man answered, "The woman you put here with me gave me the fruit, and I ate it." 13 The LORD God asked the woman, "Why did you do this?" She replied, "The snake tricked me into eating it."
"Adam and Eve Are Sent Out of the Garden" - 22 Then the LORD God said, "Now the man has become like one of us and has knowledge of what is good and what is bad. He must not be allowed to take fruit from the tree that gives life, eat it, and live forever." 23 So the LORD God sent him out of the Garden of Eden and made him cultivate the soil from which he had been formed. 24 Then at the east side of the garden he put living creatures and a flaming sword which turned in all directions. This was to keep anyone from coming near the tree that gives life.
KJV - 13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: 14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
NRSV - 13 No one, when tempted, should say, "I am being tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil and he himself tempts no one. 14 But one is tempted by one's own desire, being lured and enticed by it;
TEV - "Testing and Tempting" - 12 Happy is the person who remains faithful under trials, because when he succeeds in passing such a test, he will receive as his reward the life which God has promised to those who love him. 13 If a person is tempted by such trials, he must not say, "This temptation comes from God." For God cannot be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one. 14 But a person is tempted when he is drawn away and trapped by his own evil desire. 15 Then his evil desire conceives and gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.
KJV - 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you
NRSV - 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you...
TEV - "Friendship with the World" - 7 So then, submit yourselves to God. Resist the Devil, and he will run away from you. 8 Come near to God, and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners! Purify your hearts, you hypocrites! 9 Be sorrowful, cry, and weep; change your laughter into crying, your joy into gloom! 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
<B8> Genesis 4 - [To use other Bible research tools to further explore this citation - click here]
KJV - 1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord. 2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. 3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord. 4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering: 5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. 6 And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? 7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. 8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. 9 And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?
NRSV - 1 Now the man knew his wife Eve, and she conceived and bore Cain, saying, "I have produced a man with the help of the LORD." 2 Next she bore his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain a tiller of the ground. 3 In the course of time Cain brought to the LORD an offering of the fruit of the ground, 4 and Abel for his part brought of the firstlings of his flock, their fat portions. And the LORD had regard for Abel and his offering, 5 but for Cain and his offering he had no regard. So Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell. 6 The LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry, and why has your countenance fallen? 7 If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is lurking at the door; its desire is for you, but you must master it." 8 Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let us go out to the field." And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and killed him. 9 Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is your brother Abel?" He said, "I do not know; am I my brother's keeper?"
TEV - "Cain and Abel" - 1 Then Adam had intercourse with his wife, and she became pregnant. She bore a son and said, "By the LORD's help I have gotten a son." So she named him Cain. 2 Later she gave birth to another son, Abel. Abel became a shepherd, but Cain was a farmer. 3 After some time Cain brought some of his harvest and gave it as an offering to the LORD. 4 Then Abel brought the first lamb born to one of his sheep, killed it, and gave the best parts of it as an offering. The LORD was pleased with Abel and his offering, 5 but he rejected Cain and his offering. Cain became furious, and he scowled in anger. 6 Then the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why that scowl on your face? 7 If you had done the right thing, you would be smiling; but because you have done evil, sin is crouching at your door. It wants to rule you, but you must overcome it." 8 Then Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out in the fields." When they were out in the fields, Cain turned on his brother and killed him. 9 The LORD asked Cain, "Where is your brother Abel?" He answered, "I don't know. Am I supposed to take care of my brother?"
KJV - 10 Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us?
NRSV - 10 Have we not all one father? Has not one God created us?...
TEV - "The People's Unfaithfulness to God" - 10 Don't we all have the same father? Didn't the same God create us all? Then why do we break our promises to one another, and why do we despise the covenant that God made with our ancestors? 11 The people of Judah have broken their promise to God and done a horrible thing in Jerusalem and all over the country. They have defiled the Temple which the LORD loves. Men have married women who worship foreign gods. 12 May the LORD remove from the community of Israel those who did this, and never again let them participate in the offerings our nation brings to the LORD Almighty.
KJV - 11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
NRSV - 11 For this is the message you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 12 We must not be like Cain who was from the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother's righteous.
TEV - "Love One Another" - 11 The message you heard from the very beginning is this: we must love one another. 12 We must not be like Cain; he belonged to the Evil One and murdered his own brother Abel. Why did Cain murder him? Because the things he himself did were wrong, and the things his brother did were right.
KJV - 10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. 11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
NRSV - 10 Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law. 11 Besides this, you know what time it is, how it is now the moment for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we became believers;
TEV - "Duties toward One Another" - 8 Be under obligation to no one -- the only obligation you have is to love one another. Whoever does this has obeyed the Law. 9 The commandments, "Do not commit adultery; do not commit murder; do not steal; do not desire what belongs to someone else" -- all these, and any others besides, are summed up in the one command, "Love your neighbor as you love yourself." 10 If you love someone, you will never do him wrong; to love, then, is to obey the whole Law. 11 You must do this, because you know that the time has come for you to wake up from your sleep. For the moment when we will be saved is closer now than it was when we first believed. 12 The night is nearly over, day is almost here. Let us stop doing the things that belong to the dark, and let us take up weapons for fighting in the light. 13 Let us conduct ourselves properly, as people who live in the light of day -- no orgies or drunkenness, no immorality or indecency, no fighting or jealousy.14 But take up the weapons of the Lord Jesus Christ, and stop paying attention to your sinful nature and satisfying its desires.
<B12> Ephesians 5 - [To use other Bible research tools to further explore this citation - click here]
KJV - 14 Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
NRSV - 14 ..."Sleeper, awake! Rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."
TEV - "Living in the Light" - 11 Have nothing to do with the worthless things that people do, things that belong to the darkness. Instead, bring them out to the light. (12 It is really too shameful even to talk about the things they do in secret.) 13 And when all things are brought out to the light, then their true nature is clearly revealed; 14 for anything that is clearly revealed becomes light. That is why it is said, "Wake up, sleeper, and rise from death, and Christ will shine on you."
KJV - 1 Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
4 When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. 12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well. 13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. 14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
17 Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.
21 Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: 26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? 27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.
41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. 42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. 43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. 44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
NRSV - 1 Now a certain man was ill, Lazarus of Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
4 But when Jesus heard it, he said, "This illness does not lead to death; rather it is for God's glory, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it."
11 After saying this, he told them, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to awaken him." 12 The disciples said to him, "Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will be all right." 13 Jesus, however, had been speaking about his death, but they thought that he was referring merely to sleep. 14 Then Jesus told them plainly, "Lazarus is dead.
17 When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb four days.
21 Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, 26 and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" 27 She said to him, "Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one coming into the world."
41 So they took away the stone. And Jesus looked upward and said, "Father, I thank you for having heard me. 42 I knew that you always hear me, but I have said this for the sake of the crowd standing here, so that they may believe that you sent me." 43 When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" 44 The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with strips of cloth, and his face wrapped in a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go."
TEV - "The Death of Lazarus" - 1 A man named Lazarus, who lived in Bethany, became sick. Bethany was the town where Mary and her sister Martha lived. (2 This Mary was the one who poured the perfume on the Lord's feet and wiped them with her hair; it was her brother Lazarus who was sick.) 3 The sisters sent Jesus a message: "Lord, your dear friend is sick." 4 When Jesus heard it, he said, "The final result of this sickness will not be the death of Lazarus; this has happened in order to bring glory to God, and it will be the means by which the Son of God will receive glory." 5 Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. 6 Yet when he received the news that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was for two more days. 7 Then he said to the disciples, "Let us go back to Judea." 8 "Teacher," the disciples answered, "just a short time ago the people there wanted to stone you; and are you planning to go back?" 9 Jesus said, "A day has twelve hours, doesn't it? So whoever walks in broad daylight does not stumble, for he sees the light of this world. 10 But if he walks during the night he stumbles, because he has no light." 11 Jesus said this and then added, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I will go and wake him up." 12 The disciples answered, "If he is asleep, Lord, he will get well." 13 Jesus meant that Lazarus had died, but they thought he meant natural sleep. 14 So Jesus told them plainly, "Lazarus is dead, 15 but for your sake I am glad that I was not with him, so that you will believe. Let us go to him." 16 Thomas (called the Twin) said to his fellow disciples, "Let us all go along with the Teacher, so that we may die with him!"
"Jesus the Resurrection and the Life" - 17 When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had been buried four days before. 18 Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem, 19 and many Judeans had come to see Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother's death. 20 When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed in the house. 21 Martha said to Jesus, "If you had been here, Lord, my brother would not have died! 22 But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask him for." 23 "Your brother will rise to life," Jesus told her. 24 "I know," she replied, "that he will rise to life on the last day." 25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me will live, even though he dies; 26 and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" 27 "Yes, Lord!" she answered. "I do believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."
"Lazarus Is Brought to Life" - 38 Deeply moved once more, Jesus went to the tomb, which was a cave with a stone placed at the entrance. 39 "Take the stone away!" Jesus ordered. Martha, the dead man's sister, answered, "There will be a bad smell, Lord. He has been buried four days!" 40 Jesus said to her, "Didn't I tell you that you would see God's glory if you believed?" 41 They took the stone away. Jesus looked up and said, "I thank you, Father, that you listen to me. 42 I know that you always listen to me, but I say this for the sake of the people here, so that they will believe that you sent me." 43 After he had said this, he called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" 44 He came out, his hands and feet wrapped in grave cloths, and with a cloth around his face. "Untie him," Jesus told them, "and let him go."

KJV - 45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
NRSV - 45 Thus it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living being"; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
TEV - "The Resurrection Body" - 42 This is how it will be when the dead are raised to life. When the body is buried, it is mortal; when raised, it will be immortal. 43 When buried, it is ugly and weak; when raised, it will be beautiful and strong. 44 When buried, it is a physical body; when raised, it will be a spiritual body. There is, of course, a physical body, so there has to be a spiritual body. 45 For the scripture says, "The first man, Adam, was created a living being"; but the last Adam is the life-giving Spirit. 46 It is not the spiritual that comes first, but the physical, and then the spiritual.
It is helpful to note that the word translated in 1Co 15:45 as a living "being" is translated from the Greek word "psuche" <Strong's #5590>, which in English means a "soul" or "breath-based, sensual, animal-like life." Here Paul is directly paraphrasing from Genesis 2:7. The word translated above as "physical" is translated from the related Greek adjective "psuchikos" <Strong's #5591>, which in English means "breath-based, sensual, animal-like."
The following table shows the origin of and the actual meaning of the theological term soul, which is used as a means of personally identifying each mortal.
|King James Version
|New Revised Standard Version
|Gen 2:7
|And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
|Then the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being.
|1Co 15:45
|And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
|Thus it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living being"; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
The "last Adam" or Christ as "a quickening spirit" is the epitome of the Genesis 1 "man," which is described as follows:
God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. (Gen 1:27, KJV, NASV, and others)
The "man" of Genesis 1 is described as the "image" or "likeness" (Gen 1:26) of God, and God is later revealed as the I AM, the divine Soul. Christ is described in the New Testament as the "image" or the "reflection" of God and as being one with God.
2Co 4:4 ...The god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. [NRSV]
Col 1:12-16 - 12 ...The Father... enabled you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has rescued us from the power of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; 16 for in him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powersall things have been created through him and for him. [NRSV]
Heb 1:1-3 - 1 Long ago God spoke to our ancestors in many and various ways by the prophets, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by a Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom he also created the worlds. 3 He is the reflection of Gods glory and the exact imprint of Gods very being, and he sustains all things by his powerful word. [NRSV]
Those "in Christ" are described as having a "new self" and as being transformed into "the image" of Christ -- and into "the image" of the "creator."
Rom 8:28,29 - 28 We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn within a large family. [NRSV]
1Co 15:48,49 - 45 Thus it is written, The first man, Adam, became a living being; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 46 But it is not the spiritual that is first, but the physical, and then the spiritual. 47 The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven. 48 As was the man of dust, so are those who are of the dust; and as is the man of heaven, so are those who are of heaven. 49 Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we will also bear the image of the man of heaven. [NRSV]
2Co 3:17,18 - 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 And all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit. [NRSV]
Eph 4:21 - For surely you have heard about him and were taught in him, as truth is in Jesus. 22 You were taught to put away your former way of life, your old self, corrupt and deluded by its lusts, 23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to clothe yourselves with the new self, created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. [NRSV]
Col 3:9-11 - 9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have stripped off the old self with its practices 10 and have clothed yourselves with the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of its creator. 11 In that renewal there is no longer Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave and free; but Christ is all and in all! [NRSV]
[See also S&H 94:1, S&H 301:17, S&H 516:24-30, Man 15:6, Mis 97:20-5, Ret 64:1-8, Ret 70:20-25. The terms "image" and "likeness" are used over 200 times in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures and over 200 times in Prose Works.]
These verses illustrate how and why the personal soul, the "old self" of mortal man, differs greatly from the divine Soul, God, the I AM, which is Christ's basis of identity and authority. Christ, as "the image of ... God" (Col 2:15), is eternally one with God. The New Testament tells us that "the old self" (NAB, NASB, NRSV, et al) or "the old man" (KJV, NJB, et al) has to be stripped off, and we need to be transformed, in Christ and "clothed.. with the new self," in "the image" of God. And, stimulating further food for thought as to the nature of God, the "image of God" was created "male and female." (Gen 1:27) Thus, God is the Soul of "the new man" in Christ -- the Soul of "the new self, created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness." (Eph 4:24)
KJV - 18 as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. 19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. 20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: 21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
NRSV - 18 ...just as one man's trespass led to condemnation for all, so one man's act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all. 19 For just as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous. 20 But law came in, with the result that the trespass multiplied; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, 21 so that, just as sin exercised dominion in death, so grace might also exercise dominion through justification leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
TEV - "Adam and Christ" - 18 So then, as the one sin condemned all mankind, in the same way the one righteous act sets all mankind free and gives them life. 19 And just as all people were made sinners as the result of the disobedience of one man, in the same way they will all be put right with God as the result of the obedience of the one man. 20 Law was introduced in order to increase wrongdoing; but where sin increased, God's grace increased much more. 21 So then, just as sin ruled by means of death, so also God's grace rules by means of righteousness, leading us to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
KJV - 18 we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
NRSV - 18 ...all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit.
TEV - "Servants of the New Covenant" - 16 But it can be removed, as the scripture says about Moses: "His veil was removed when he turned to the Lord." 17 Now, "the Lord" in this passage is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is present, there is freedom. 18 All of us, then, reflect the glory of the Lord with uncovered faces; and that same glory, coming from the Lord, who is the Spirit, transforms us into his likeness in an ever greater degree of glory.

« 100 years after, our future begins », this project title provides the link and mirrors the starting and the finishing point for our Erasmus+ project which is intended to last for 23 months. In 1919, after the First World War, peace was restored with the help of the Paris Treaties. In 2019 our final meeting is going to take place in Lille and thus one hundred years later, our pupils will be asked to actively create their own future and to learn from mistakes from the past. Europe's lapse into dictatorships, the Second World War and the Cold War are part of our commemorative culture as well as changes in politics and society in 1989/90. 'Our future begins' is meant to be a reminder not to focus on the past only but to actively create our own future based on a knowledge of the past and to understand current political and social processes and to participate.
Four schools from Germany, Poland, Turkey and France participate in the Erasmus+ project which is outlined here. The project focuses on 1919 as a shared historic event and on common current social and political processes like migration and populism.
The project is divided into four phases, which have their own topics. In phases one, two and three we are going to deal with topics that are pieced together in phase four. In the first three phases respectively two schools will work closely together in order to give the students the opportunity to organise a European youth peace conference with the aim of creating a common and peaceful future exactly one hundred years after the Paris Treaties. Current topics from the first three phases, migration, populism and change, are the challenges which young people have to face and which they have to overcome as active European citizens.
1st phase 08/2017-01/2018 topic: migration; meeting: Frankfurt, Germany – Friedrich-Dessauer-Gymnasium
2nd phase 02/2018-07/2018 topic: populism; meeting: Samsun Tr. – Özel Samsun TAKEV Anadolu Lise
3rd phase 08/2018-01/2019 topic: change and transformation; meeting: Bialystok Pl. – Zespol Szkol Ogolnoksztalcacych Nr 2 w Bialymstoku
4th phase 02/2019-07/2019 topic: creating a common future; meeting: Lille Fr. – Eocle Ozanam
The project is being dealt with in assigned classes for the duration of 23 months so that we can guarantee continuity in the working process and at the same time students can disseminate the European idea and develop it further. As every citizen is part of the creation of a common future, students who can disseminate the European idea play an important role, especially in times of emerging populism and fears.
Throughout the project the students are researchers and at the same time ambassadors. Across borders the students find out about similarities and they experience history as an element which connects them. Due to their work the students become ambassadors of a common European identity which focuses on and respects diversity and which -in contrast to populism- does not understand it as something that is dividing but rather understands European diversity as an opportunity for a future that is theirs to create. This approach, which is student-centred and task-based, requires us to include extracurricular experts and locations. Expert consultations and discussions with politicians and social groups and organisations are important sources for information for the students. They fill the acquired knowledge with real experience and create an emotional link. Accordingly, the visit to representatives of the EU at the end of the project, during which the students are going to present their findings and are going to experience themselves as active citizens and are perceived as such.
The distribution of tasks between the schools which participate allows for a continuation of our work after the project will have finished in 07/2019. In order to document and disseminate our work, we are going to create the following products:
project website (France), book about the project (Poland), exhibition of the project (Turkey)
The German school is going to coordinate the project, even after the official ending. During the creation of the project idea further projects like student exchanges between our schools were started, which need to be coordinated even after the end of the project, and they offer further content for a follow-up of the project results after 07/2019 for more common activities.

Kerrigan's Knee Steady in Flawless Exhibition
By Laura Blumenfeld
Washington Post Staff Writer
Saturday, February 5, 1994; Page D1
Nancy Kerrigan showcased her Olympic routine tonight, skating in public for the first time since an assailant whacked her above the right knee and nearly shattered her chances to go to Lillehammer. Kerrigan patted the air like Miss America, sparkled a smile and sailed across the rink, with gusts of applause behind her.
"I'm pretty strong," Kerrigan said, after the show. She said there was still scar tissue and "a funny bump" on her knee, which is getting smaller every day.
During Kerrigan's Olympic short program she skated conservatively solid on her jumps, tentative on the spins. But to the fans packing the 4,500-seat Matthews Arena on the Northeastern University campus, the performance was worthy of a gold medal.
"She's so beautiful, so elegant, so Hepburn," said Nancy Smith, 28, who drove from Washington D.C., flapping a purple handmade sign, "NANCY SEIZE THE DAY."
The charity skating extravaganza featuring past and present Olympians will air Saturday in a one-hour prime-time special on CBS called "Nancy Kerrigan and Friends."
Kerrigan had practiced privately in the Boston area and had performed her Olympic routines for U.S. figure skating officials on Wednesday, but this was the first time the public had seen her skate since the Jan. 6 attack at the U.S. Olympic trials in Detroit.
"She was perfect. She was very aggressive. She was very nervous and she dealt with it," said her coach, Evy Scotvold. "I had a hard time seeing it. I had a little dew in my eye."
The audience was thick with little girls, clasping bunches of pink carnations for their Snow White on blades. Karoline Krane, an 11-year-old visiting from Norway, waved a sign written in Norweigan: "Good Luck in Lillehammer." Melissa Haury, 11, said, "Nancy's my idol." And Tonya Harding? "Tonya's my idol too. I like anyone who can skate well."
Paul Wylie, a 1992 silver medalist and a close friend of Kerrigan's, skated a duet with her to "Last Night of the World." Before the song began, Kerrigan's shoulders trembled with laughter and perhaps from nerves. She knelt, picked up a piece of loose ice and sent it skittering across the rink. Nothing was going to trip her tonight. The audience never stopped clapping for her even when she took a spill during the final bows.
Kerrigan closed the show boldly, gliding to "With One Look," her sunflower yellow skirt fluttering. After her encore, "Walk on By," she told the audience: "It's been a really tough month for me and I'm ready to go. Can't wait to get there." She said she is scheduled to leave for Norway on Wednesday.
Among the other performers at the event were 1984 gold medalist Scott Hamilton; former Olympian Todd Eldredge; Nicole Bobek and Elaine Zayak, who finished third and fourth at the U.S. Olympic trials; and Michael Weiss from Fairfax, Va., the 1994 world junior champion.
"What do you think?" the master of ceremonies boomed at the end of the show. "Is Nancy ready?" The spectators stood up and thundered. For many, her clean performance was a relief.
"I'm so excited I can't stand it," said Dottie Larkin, the manager at Tony Kent Arena, where Kerrigan trains. "I've seen her skate all week, and she's very, very determined."
Also pulling for Kerrigan was her mother, Brenda, who is legally blind and watched the show on a special television monitor. During intermission, kids buzzed around Nancy's father, Daniel, a welder, begging him for autographs.
"Because of her knee, there isn't anyone in America who doesn't know Nancy," said Janet Bruno, a fan who lives near Kerrigan. Since the attack, Kerrigan has received at least 35 made-for-TV movie offers.
She began skating when she was 6, playing hockey with her brothers. But her style has emphasized artistry over athletic talent. "I think women's skating should be pretty and graceful," Kerrigan said at the 1992 Olympics. "It's always been a glamour sport and I think it should stay that way."
She lived up to that image tonight, sweeping across the ice in a black-velvet banded, white spandex outfit designed for her by Madison Avenue couturier Vera Wang. Her wrists glittered with crystal and silver beading. Her spins and spirals were a celebration of grace. She beamed at the crowd with a face that could launch a thousand ad campaigns.
At the 1992 Olympics in Albertville, France, Kerrigan took the bronze medal. Harding finished fourth. This year, Harding won the trials, again gaining a spot on the Olympic team. Kerrigan was named to the team anyway, provided she was able to compete. On Wednesday, a special figure skating panel pronounced her physically fit to compete.
The Winter Olympics begin in Lillehammer, Norway, on Feb. 12. Four women figure skaters are on the roster: Harding, Kerrigan and alternates Michelle Kwan and Bobek. Changes can be made until Feb. 21, two days before the women's skating event begins.
Asked if Harding should be allowed to skate, Kerrigan said, "I don't have an opinion." Her supporters do, though. Feelings for Harding were best summed up by Kerrigan fan Nancy Leotta: "Nail her to the wall."

Kentish Town's triumphant team were also celebrating following their semi-final win over Independent FC in the London FA Cup.
Reece McCluskey opened the scoring before Patrick Morley scored the goal-of-the-game with a 25-yard screamer.
Solly Hamilton also got on the scoresheet to wrap up a resounding 3-0 victory, and set up a final against either Edmonton Youth or Clapham Rangers next month.
Manager TJ O'Leary, who also coaches Chelsea Ladies, said he couldn't be happier after seeing his side earn a deserved place in the final.
"I'm very proud of all the boys. The toughest thing for me was choosing which 10 players from the group to leave out of the semi-final.
"We've got such a strong squad, and obviously we couldn't play everyone.
"This team has now remained unbeaten for over two years, so expectations were high. They have delivered time and time again.
"They are a great bunch of players to work with and I love every training session.
"Everyone at the club is looking forward to the boys' showcasing their talent in the final. I will be proud of them whatever the outcome is."

WASHINGTON: Devastated Mariah Carey seems to be still in the dark about why her billionaire fiance James Packer 'dumped her out of nowhere' in the midst of their wedding preparations.
A source informed that Carey was 'blindsided' when Packer dumped her and to add insult to injury, the 46-year-old singer only learned that the engagement was over when she saw it in the press, reports E! Online.
"The split has been devastating for Mariah. She loved James and was planning to marry him," another source revealed.
"She made life changes for this man to prepare for their future as husband and wife, even relocating to L.A., at James' request, so he could be closer to his children. Everything she has done over the past year is to prove how fully committed she is to their life together. She really wanted this to work. And then, completely out of the blue, it imploded," the source added.
Reportedly, the breakdown of the couple's relationship started in Greece with "some sort of outburst" where the father of three made a reference about things becoming "too much" and saying, "I don't know if I can do this. I can barely take care of my own children."
Meanwhile, the 48-year-old Australian businessman is alleged to have ended his 10-month engagement to the US pop star as he was concerned over the popstar's extravagant lifestyle and their lack of privacy. (ANI)

Working in the cloud: How IT enables mobile productivity
Which devices should mobile workers use?
To pick the right notebook or tablet for mobile workers who use the cloud, companies have to look beyond just the hardware and consider platforms, applications and users' habits. Read Now
Editor's note
Cloud file-sharing services and mobile productivity tools have changed the way employees work and caused some strife for IT administrators.
Today's workers demand access to corporate data on the go. Companies have to carefully consider which mobile devices to provide, how to enable constant access to resources and how to keep data safe. That's a lot of bases to cover.
Working in the cloud can present some security and manageability concerns, but it can also help workers be more productive. Because workers' cloud use is probably not going to stop any time soon, it's time for companies and IT departments to find solutions to common problems that come with this trend.
To find the answers to top-of-mind questions about mobile productivity and working in the cloud, check out this special report, produced in partnership with TechnologyGuide.
1SkyDrive vs. SkyDrive Pro: Which is better for business?
Microsoft's consumer cloud service SkyDrive integrates with Windows 8 and 8.1, which is a great feature for Windows users on the go. For IT pros, however, it creates concern around which corporate files are being stored where. Companies that encourage working in the cloud with enterprise-grade services such as SkyDrive Pro, WatchDox and the corporate versions of Box and Dropbox could stymie potential data leaks.
2Connectivity issues don't have to impede productivity
Mobile workers expect to be able to connect to the Internet anytime, anywhere, but the reality is that Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity aren't ubiquitous yet. On the bright side, being disconnected from the network doesn't mean employees have to lose all hope of mobile productivity. Syncing data to cloud file-sharing services frequently and using applications that have offline capabilities can help end users stay productive, even without the net.
3Enterprise cloud file-sharing options
Companies have tons of cloud file-sharing services to choose from. They can opt to let workers use consumer cloud services for work, they can offer a private cloud or on-premises tool, or they can look to cloud providers that offer services with an enterprise focus. Services include WatchDox, ShareFile, DataNow and SkyDrive, to name a few.
4More resources about working in the cloud
Working in the cloud is a pervasive part of the way employees stay productive. Dig deeper into the cloud file-sharing services and tools that employees are using for work and learn more about them with these additional resources.
Google Hangouts vs. Skype
With Hangouts, Google is taking on Microsoft's Skype. Take a look at the features of each video-conferencing tool and decide which one might work better in your company. Read Now
Which UC apps should you move to the cloud?
To determine whether you're ready to move some unified communications applications to the cloud -- and which ones should go -- ask yourself five simple questions, including, "Am I comfortable forfeiting control?" Read Now

Many social strategies in businesses today still include consumer tools such as Twitter and Facebook, but integrated, enterprise-grade social software is proving its worth, too. Read Now
Dropbox vs. Box: A cloud storage comparison
Cloud storage services such as Dropbox and Box can make mobile workers more productive. Both providers use a "freemium" model that scales to business class, but they offer different features at different price points. Read Now
