Dates back to the early days of mainframe database technology (please forgive the pun). The actual name of the language is:
Standard English Query Language - SEQL
This was later sortened to Standard Query Language - SQL
By the time this happened, however, the common usage of "sequel" had already become entrenched.

Ugh! That would be Structured NOT Standard.
Why? Because it's utterly impossible to become a useful java programmer?
Man, I look forward to the flames on that one.
I smell BS or just too much drama in this story...
When Corey was asked about C# while eating, there would be no way that he'd confused it by saying "C pou- er- sharp."
because Corey would already have pronounced the word C#.
If that's the author's attempt at humor,
you fail. WTF.
Don't make stories up.
I promise this story is not made up. Simplified for the sake of the post, yes. It is true, it was a terrible place to work. The fact that several of you think this is B.S. shows how ridiculous this place is and I'm glad I'm not there anymore.
But his most outrageous statement during the interview went like this:
"...but I know that if I were asked to redesign the application I work on from the ground up, I could do a good job of it."
It's C-štvorlístok!
...er, should have read through the thread first. I bet someone's already said that. In that case, my second choice is C-tic-tac-toe.
Been there. There's not much to see.
You are a very silly person and I'm not going to quote you.

Octothorp, anyone knows that! hgello!
I have read this thread and believe many of you missed the point of this story. The point is the management WTF of hiring a clearly incompetent worker.
C# may be pronounced as C-tic-tac-toe, but I am sure it should be thoughtread as "Cis" [tsis].
C hash.
C hash run.
Run, hash, run!
oh yes, this sounds just about right... packing in bodies , just on the VERBAL / superficial assurance from the candidate "i can do C#" and then the candidate ends up not knowing what a webservice /SQL stored procedure is.

Brilliant! Are we in the same company?
C♯ (C sharp) is a musical note lying a chromatic semitone above C and a diatonic semitone below D.
D♭ (D flat) is a musical note lying a diatonic semitone above C and a chromatic semitone below D.
this is not the same thing unless you assume lame-ass equal temperament
And we're back to the Well-Tempered Clavier: and not before time. I'm interested that you think that equal temperament is lame-ass, because it appears to be something of an ongoing issue amongst musicologists (at least with regard to JSB's work, which is as good a place to start as any).
However, the distinction between a chromatic semitone and a diatonic semitone is new to me (because I'm ignorant -- ok, I admit it). Nice and simple, and I can understand it.
I wonder what the rest of the crap on this thread was about?
Ehh, so what is this WTF? Brice is an assh*le and his boss is a good decent guy? The applicant got the break he deserved and Brice learnt a lesson... Looking at the comments here just makes me sad. Were you all raised in a strerile cyberspace where compassion and care for your fellow man has no value. Some of u are just pathet*c.
In France, it is "C dièse".
Hamstray?! A fellow HR enthusiast. Good jorb.

I hope this is sarcasm. Not everyone deserves a fair chance because they have a sob story. I mean, I feel bad for the guy, but... There is such a thing as lying and some do it all the time to get something they don't deserve. And lying on a resume is grounds for being written off completely. He obviously lied about the abilities needed to function at this place, which means he doesn't deserve the job because he will prove to be incompetent.
Incompetence breeds excessive bureaucracy. If you want more of that in your company, hire every charity case that you come across. You will have processes upon useless, banal processes watching processes. I promise you.
Sorry... probably a bit of misdirected hostility, but this welfare system where mediocrity is celebrated is what's destroying America's ability to function. Why try when you get rewarded for nothing? What's the point of becoming specialized and going that extra mile if you're going to be replaced by a theology major that took a Web Interfaces class? (That didn't happen to me, but it did happen to one of my friends.)
Excellent. We have Body.
Now, Igor go out and fetch me a fresh brain!
Oh, look, a knee-jerk Republican. Isn't he cute? I wonder when they'll come up with syllogisms that actually make sense, or can be measured in the real world.
There are more incompetencies in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy. Halliburton, for one.
Tell your friend to take a Master's in the appropriate degree -- in this case, Theology. That's the American Way. Tailor your talents to what the Market wants.
Otherwise, stop bleating.
Okay, I swear I have read every comment here, so I am very sorry if I missed this one:
I think it's C+=2.
I don't think anyone has posted this one yet.
It is clearly called "C double double dagger".
Explanation: The little cross shaped symbol (†) used for postscripts is often called a dagger. The double of the symbol (‡) is a double dagger. So the # symbol is clearly a double double dagger.
Additionally I have heard it secribed (in my country at least) as "hatch" (from "crosshatch") rather than "hash".
As an aside, "C pound" confused me until I remembered that you Americans don't use SI units.
I guess I won't be applying for a job at your company either. If a Java programmer can't learn the rudiments of VB (I originally wrote "basics" but that would have led to a pun even more tired by now than "c tic-tac-toe") in a couple of weeks, I don't believe he was any good at Java, either. Sure, every language has its intricacies, and I suppose becomeing an expert <anything> programmer takes considerable time.
Let's put it this way: There's a big difference between "knowing Java" and "knowing how to develop computer systems". People in category B can pick up a new language pretty easily.
I worked with a guy years ago who pronounced "ASCII" as "ask two". It took me a little while to realize that he apparently thought the "II" were Roman numerals.
I think it's C ALT+0035
Captcha: ... wait, no. My first post on here will NOT include *that* whole thing
I'll stop multi-posting now, but I just came across this and I just had to say:
A simple search on Wikipedia would tell you that SQL was originally supposed to be SEQL, for Structured English Query Language, but there was a trademark issue with the SEQL acronym, so they removed the "English" word and it became SQL.
Hence the, what is considered "old school", pronunciation of "sequel".
Please share the name of this company, so I can be EXTRA, EXTRA certain to never buy their product.
Good heavens, I would have quit on the spot, pushed the boss out of my car (without stopping) and made him walk back to the office for hiring that idiot.

Uhh.... Thanks for arguing my point? You are being sarcastic, right?
I mean... Talking about crappy syllogisms, lets quote Shakespeare and then give an example of supreme incompetence breeding bureaucracy. Halliburton is an excellent reason why we have to make rules that shouldn't have to be there in the first place. But people are d'bags and liars, and rules are made so the interested parties don't get screwed. (Ermm... no pun intended. Seriously.)
I'm not sure what you're trying to say. You think that my web developer friend needs to get a Master's in theology so he can be a better programmer? I mean, he has a Master's in CS, but if you think he should go back for a Theology degree to better function in his job I'll let him know. "Hey, Mike? [...] Yeah, I just wanted to let you know that this guy real_aardvark on this website thinks you could be better at your job if you went back to school. [...] Well, no. He thinks you should go back for a Theology degree. [...] A Master's in Theology. [...] Well, he thinks that you'll be a better developer if you do. [...] Okay, I'll let him know."
Mike says you're an idiot.

According to the Wikipedia article on the C# programming language, the correct pronunciation is "C sharp".

> "Programming is programming. As long as the person knows how to code, picking up new languages is pretty simple." = bullshit. i rejected someone last week for saying approximately the same thing. if you/he think you/he can become a useful java programmer when all you know is VB programming, you/he are crazed.
There is some truth to this, but the more you know about coding the easier it is to pick up something in the same vein. I've used numerous procedural languages over the last thirty years. I've also programmed and used a number of procedural database tools, DBase II, III, IV, etc., as well as other more obscure ones. I picked up Oracle SQL, which is, at heart, still a procedural language well enough inside of two months to utilize one of its constructs in a unique enough way that my boss, who's been using it for over 10 years, and posts responses regularly on Tom Kite's webpage, had never seen the construct used that way before. I would not say I'm an expert at it, but I'm probably at least as good as 30-40% of the Oracle coders out there... I can and have set up 3 and 4 level select statements to tease data into the form and organization I wanted (and yes, I know I might be doing it the "hard" way by that, if I'm doing it wrong).
OTOH, I've yet to do anything with actual event-driven coding. I'm sure that, when I pick that up, it will take me a lot longer to add the paradigm to my toolset than it would to "just add a new language", if the language is essentially procedural in nature as opposed to event driven coding.
I think the key issue is the amount of paradigm shifting that needs to be done to "pick up the new language" -- are the languages similar underneath? Are the design constructs alike? This is far more important than the actual language involved. It is a lot easier for an English speaker to pick up French than Mandarin Chinese.

Food labels for me are like the instructions on new electronic toys. I'm so impatient to get to the fun part of the device, I consume first and, maybe, I read later. A big part of the reason I don't stand in supermarket aisles reading labels is the sheer overabundance of information on the label that means nothing to me. If I had a food allergy, it would be different, but in my case, I don't have the time or inclination. Maybe it's because I understand federal food safety oversight and the priorities on food safety, nutrition and taste held by the food industry.
I think I'm pretty average in my behavior. In fact, I'm always wary of consumer activist surveys trumpeting "consumers demand" pull-out food labels listing everything from calories, carbs and other ingredients to where the processing plant is located, from whence every ingredient was imported and the birthday of the company president. I contend those who respond to these surveys answer out of political correctness, not based on their real world behavior.
So why do activists these days demand U.S. food labels carry messages about whether the food product is the product of or contains ingredients developed with biotechnology? Industry – farmers, ranchers, feed companies, food companies, etc. – killed off a 2012 California ballot initiative to force biotech labeling; most states have walked away from similar initiatives and legislation, and FDA has quietly affirmed it does not and will not mandate labels based on production practices nor on ingredients not "materially different" than conventional ingredients.
This reality hasn't stopped Sen. Barbara Boxer (D, CA) or Rep. Pete DeFazio (D, OR) from cajoling a handful of their colleagues to join them in introducing legislation to require FDA to mandate labeling of foods and foods containing ingredients that are the products of genetic engineering (GE), including livestock, poultry and pet foods. Why? A very long, kind of snarky press release boils down to 1) Ms. Boxer and Mr. DeFazio are not "anti-GE," even if a good percentage of the bill's supporters could be classed as "anti-GE;" 2) "the consumer has a right to know" and 3) 60-plus other countries require labeling.
Ms. Boxer's and Mr. DeFazio's legislation translates to an expensive and pointless message on just about every food product regulated by FDA. First, no food ingredient is approved no matter how it's developed or grown unless it's scientifically demonstrated as safe. Second, the Boxer/DeFazio bill only amends FDA's authorizing law, not USDA's, so roughly a third of food products sold in the U.S. and abroad wouldn't carry the label. Third, why is it important to know about the biotechnology underlying food production, but not all other science/technology/production systems used in food production?
Most annoying is that because more than 90% of the corn and soybeans grown the U.S. is from drought-resistant, disease-resistant, pest-resistant GE seed, just about every FDA-regulated food product containing corn, soybeans, a lot of the wheat grown and a passel of other grains, oilseeds, fruits and veggies – or any ingredient derived therefrom – would carry this GE label.
Back to my point about consumers, political correctness and behavior. In 2011, the University of Minnesota found 203 consumers for a study on what label information they scanned when buying food products. The study subjects were shown 64 food items and asked if they'd buy the product. Using electronic magic, the study tracked eye movements, i.e. what the person looked at when viewing the product. My suspicions are correct, at least according to a Time Magazine report by Meredith Melnick on the study.
"Researchers found a big difference between what the eye tracker said people looked at and what the participants self-reported they typically looked at while shopping. Thirty-three percent of participants said they 'almost always' looked at a product's calorie content on the Nutrition Facts label; 31% said they almost always looked at total fat content…24% said they studied products' sugar content and 26% said they paid close attention to serving size…(w)hat the eye-tracking data showed: only 9% looked at calorie count for almost all the items in the experiment; 1% looked at each of the other components, including fat, trans fat, sugar and serving size, for almost all of the products."
So what's achieved by labeling foods, ingredients, etc., as products of GE technology? Expensive labeling changes, the cost of which would inevitably be borne by the consumer; more information on already-crowded food labels; a two-tier labeling system where some foods are labeled, others not; yet another leap down the road to European-style "precautionary" regulation/labeling based on the "what ifs" of risk, and a labeling message providing little if any benefit to consumers, and which studies demonstrates will likely be treated by consumers as the labeling equivalent of white noise.
But it's not "anti-GE."

Got a damaged quarter panel? We have the best replacement for it. The quarter panel is the section of your vehicle that is typically considered the body panel that covers the part between the rear door and the trunk. In the case of a rear quarter panel it is called the rear wing. This part of your car is usually made of sheet metal while other types of it are made of fiberglass and fiber-reinforced plastic. It normally wraps around the wheel well, but this changes with different kinds of automobiles. The use of this body panel as a housing for the antenna of the vehicle is commonly done by American car makers. When this is damaged, the affected areas often need to be cut out especially if it is severely ruined. Then it is hammered out, applied with bonding compound, and molded to the right shape. But to ensure that it has the durability that you want all parts of your vehicle to have, it is best to replace it with a top-grade quarter panel that will give your automobile and, more importantly, you and your passengers much needed protection.

Getting Replacement Quarter Panels
Let's face it. Sooner or later, your car will get dinged by something or someone and you'll end up repairing a dent or bump on your vehicle. Even with round-the-clock maintenance and ever cautious driving, you'll never get away with an accident-free vehicle. It's a good thing that with most vehicles nowadays you could easily repair a dent or two by replacing your car's quarter panel. These are basically sheets of metal that form the exterior of your vehicle and are usually located on the front and back of your car. Getting the right quarter panel for your vehicle is quite easy, and you'll be able to get a replacement for practically any car make and model by ordering online.
Types of quarter panels
Most vehicles have a pair of quarter panels on its front and rear section. Quarter panels at the rear are usually located between the side doors and the trunk, and are often welded into place. On the other hand, the front quarter panels are located near the front fenders and are usually easily removed with a couple of bolts holding them in place. Replacing a front quarter panel is usually much easier compared to changing a rear panel, which is often left to a mechanic or auto body repair shop for them to handle.
Choosing a quarter panel
Picking a quarter panel is very easy since you simply have to get one that's meant for your specific vehicle make and model. We recommend that you go for a high-quality OEM replacement that matches the color of your vehicle, so you won't have to repaint the panel. The only other factor that you'll probably consider when getting a replacement quarter panel would be the price. Smaller panels can go for as low as $50, while larger ones can range anywhere from $100 to $1000. Prices would also vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle, so it's best to check with a couple of retailers so you could get the best price for your car's quarter panel.
Replacing Your Car's Quarter Panel Properly
Quarter panels are the metal sheets in front of your car between the front doors and the bumper. Over time, these panels could rust up or simply fall apart from wear and tear. On older vehicles, replacing these panels often involves drilling, welding, and cutting off excess metal from the car. It's a good thing that with most cars nowadays, quarter panels can simply be taken off by removing a couple of bolts underneath them. You'll need a friend to help you out, but taking replacing your vehicle's quarter panels shouldn't be too hard and should probably take you an hour or two to finish.
Difficulty level: Moderate
What you'll need
- Socket with socket wrench
- Jack with jack stands
- Tire wrench
- Quarter panel
This guide is meant for vehicles that have bolted on quarter panels. If you have an older vehicle, you might have to cut off your panels and weld new ones into place. Should this prove too difficult for you, we recommend that you go to an auto detail shop or trusted mechanic instead.
Step 1: Start by loosening the lug nuts on your vehicle's wheel next to the quarter panel that you are about to replace.
Step 2: Lift your vehicle with a jack and set it up on a couple of jack stands.
Step 3: Take off the lug nuts from your car's wheels and remove the wheel entirely.
Step 4: You'll need to remove the wheel liner by removing the plastic rivets that lock them into place. For most vehicle's, you'll simply have to pry them off using a flat screwdriver. Make sure that you do not damage the rivets so do this carefully.
Step 5: Take off the wheel liner so could gain access to the bolts that hold your old quarter panel in place. The number of bolts varies depending on your vehicle's make and model.
Step 6: There should also be a number of bolts holding your quarter panel to your vehicle's body. Locate these by opening your car's hood. They should be near the area of the quarter panel inside your engine bay.
Step 7: Loosen all the bolts so you could take out your old quarter panel. You'll need someone to help you out by holding the quarter panel while you loosen the bolts.
Step 8: Pull out your old quarter panel and install a new one in its place.
Step 9: Have someone hold your new quarter panel in place while you tighten all the bolts.
Step 10: When you're done, you'll simply have to reinstall the rest of the parts that you've removed in reverse order.

I remember hearing stories of people on Airbnb opening up their homes for free to those needing shelter after Hurricane Sandy. Airbnb recognizes some of those kind individuals in this video here.
I don't know why I find this interesting, but I do. Here's just some b-roll footage of South Ferry station on the 1 line re-opening after undergoing renovations following Hurricane Sandy. Nothing new or spectacular to report. Just a video of the station with NOBODY THERE.
Look at this video of Foursquare checkins during Hurricane Sandy. Watch as nearly the entire portion of Lower Manhattan goes without a single Foursquare checkin due to power being unavailable (and probably people realizing they don't need to waste their cell batteries on useless checkins).
Man, all of these videos entered into the Miro High-Speed Inspiration Challenge are so beautiful. Here's one by Laura Egan filmed in the communities hit hardest by Hurricane Sandy.

Recently at Hitcents we have been working on deploying our Android version of Draw a Stickman: EPIC to app stores across China. China's Android app market is a strange place, and it has somewhere around 30 app stores. Google Play is not available in China, so many small stores popped up all over the country to fill the gap. Several of the stores are mobile providers, such as China Mobile, and run payments through users' cell phone plan (which is prepaid a lot of the time).
I want to start out this post by saying I am a great lover of Xamarin and their tools. Without Xamarin, I would might not have become a mobile developer and most of the success the company I work for (Hitcents) has had with mobile apps would not be possible. C# is a beautiful language, and I think it is in good hands moving forward no matter what Microsoft decides to do in the next few years. With that being said, using Xamarin every day reminds me of a phrase Scott Hanselman used recently, "death by a thousand tiny cuts". Not that any amount of these tiny cuts is that big a deal compared to developing in some nonsense like Objective-C, but it is just enough to be annoying. My fear is that Xamarin has been putting a lot of focus on big picture new features, when a little polishing could help a lot of developers lives. My goal here is to create a big wish list everyone can contribute to, not criticize their products.
I wanted to compile a quick list of excellent blogs for programmers. Not all will apply to every developer, but spending a few minutes a day on Google Reader can give you great insight into different technologies and even hone your skills on the tools you use on a daily basis. Most of us have those few minutes to spare in a day, and I think a good blog read will benefit most developers more than seeing the latest lolcat pic or random video on YouTube. Below are the recommended blogs.
At work, I have more and more been transitioning to using a Mac. MonoTouch has fueled this, and I hate to say it, but I am starting to like Mac hardware. I have come accustomed to the standard Mac mouse, as well as the Macbook Air touchpad. PCs are great, I love Visual Studio and I love C#, but there is something to be said about what Apple is doing lately.
These days, SQL (structured query language) has been the core mechanism for storing and accessing data within any application. It has many advantages, such as: reliability, scalability, fast lookup, and the ability to generate any type of report you can think of. Conventional database systems have their disadvantages as well, which is where NOSQL-based systems have surfaced to fill in the gaps.
So for this part of the series, I wanted to explore MVC by writing a sample application that reuses code between an iPhone app and a WPF windows application. The goal here is to lessen the amount of code required to be written on the iPhone, because what developer wants to use a Mac, right? But this should also cut down development time, too, and should make it easier to port the same app to Windows Phones or other platforms.
Many of you may have heard rumors of the strict app submission process by Apple, but I personally did not believe it to be true. In submitting the Omniprise iPhone App, we had to resubmit binaries three times until we got it right. On top of that, we started the submission process during what seemed to be a busy time—we had to wait 1-2 weeks between submissions. This may have been due to the Thanksgiving break, or could also have been due to it being our first App.

UNDEFEATED prospect Neil Perkins has been given a potential life-changing opportunity by being drafted into Prizefighter Heavyweights III. Perkins, 27, comes in to replace Michael Sprott, who has withdrawn from the eight-man, one-night boxing tournament after the recent death of his sister Ginette. The latest Prizefighter event, which will be staged at the ExCel in London on Friday, October 2, features some of the biggest names in British boxing. Current British Champion Danny Williams and former Olympic Games gold medalist Audley Harrison are among the other competitors, all vying for the £32,000 winners prize..
This is a huge opportunity for me and Im going to take it, said Perkins, undefeated from his four professional fights.
I got the phone call saying if I wanted to be in Prizefighter and I had ten minutes to decide but I didnt need any time and immediately said Im in.
You live with the fear everyday of knowing the names involved and you question yourself whether you are good enough.
But the more time Ive thought about it, the more I realise that over three rounds anyone could win this tournament.
This format will suit the shorter, lighter guys and my gameplan is all about using pace.
I won 18 out of 21 amateur fights and thats going to stand me in good stead.
Perkins, a former ABA finalist, runs a gym in Birmingham and has recently sparred with former British title challenger John McDermott.
Each Prizefighter fight will be shown live on Sky Sports and Perkins hopes to perform well after replacing former British and Commonwealth Champion Sprott.
Its a real tragedy, added Perkins. It makes you realise how close everyone in the boxing community is.
Michael was one of my early spars as a professional and is a gentleman.
I hope to do his place in Prizefighter well and be a credit to his. He has fought everyone and always carried himself with dignity he is a British boxing legend.
Prizefighter Heavyweights III is expected to be a 5,000 sell-out, although some tickets are still available.
Tickets cost £40 and £80 and can be bought from See Tickets on 0871 220 0260, www.seetickets.com or from Matchroom Sport on 01277 359900.
The quarter-final draw is: 1. Scott Gammer (Pembroke Dock, Wales) v Coleman Barrett (Galway, Ireland), 2. Danny Williams (Brixton) v Carl Baker (Sheffield), 3. Audley Harrison (London / California) v Scott Belshaw (Lisburn, Northern Ireland), 4. Neil Perkins (Birmingham) v Danny Hughes (Sunderland).

is such a great song. I'd say it's Napalm Deaths most accessible, radio-friendly song. If you dont like the Diatribes album you wont like this, since it has two songs from that album and four more that were recorded at the same time and couldve been on it. I like Diatribes but the songs on here that werent on Diatribes are worse than anything on that album. They just lack the character that album had. I didnt count the Diatribes songs when picking a favorite song though, to be fair to the unreleased songs. Theres a boxed set out now that includes this EP, the Diatribes album and Bootlegged in Japan, all for one low price. Id get that if youre interested in this or either of the other albums and dont have any of them. Im such a great salesman.

Early Renaissance Italian architects further developed the tradition of rustication, using it effectively to decorate palaces in the 15th century. Thus, in the Pitti Palace (1458), the Medici-Riccardi Palace (1444–59), and the Strozzi Palace (c. 1489), all in Florence, carefully designed rustication is the chief ornamental element.

To head off this threat of a Shi'ite clergy-driven religious movement, the US has, according to Asia Times Online investigations, resolved to arm small militias backed by US troops and entrenched in the population to "nip the evil in the bud".posted by matteo at 1:57 PM on February 22, 2005
Asia Times Online has learned that in a highly clandestine operation, the US has procured Pakistan-manufactured weapons, including rifles, rocket-propelled grenade launchers, ammunition, rockets and other light weaponry. Consignments have been loaded in bulk onto US military cargo aircraft at Chaklala airbase in the past few weeks. The aircraft arrived from and departed for Iraq.
The US-armed and supported militias in the south will comprise former members of the Ba'ath Party, which has already split into three factions, only one of which is pro-Saddam Hussein. They would be expected to receive assistance from pro-US interim Prime Minister Iyad Allawi's Iraqi National Accord.

The Bible is not some-thing, but reveals Some-One. In the words of St. Paul to Timothy, all Scripture is inspired by God. (2 Tim. 3:16) The Greek means God-breathed. They reveal Jesus Christ and our encounter with Him is the heart of what it means to be a Christian.
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
8/28/2014 (3 weeks ago)
Published in Living Faith
Keywords: Bible, scripture, lectio divina, prayer, fathers, early fathers, patristic, St Augustine, Deacon Keith Fournier
ORLANDO, FL (Catholic online) - On this Feast of St. Augustine, I am happy to present an excerpt from his great writings. It is found in the Office of Readings in the Liturgy of the Hours, the official prayer of the Catholic Church, on the Feast of St John the Evangelist.
The Bishop Augustine was reflecting on the first letter which the beloved disciple John wrote to the early Christians. In characteristic Patristic style (the style of the early church fathers), the good Bishop weaves the biblical text in between his inspired exposition.
This manner of reflecting on the biblical text - responding to it - returning to it - and reflecting again, reveals an intimate communion with the Living Word, Jesus Christ. It is He who is revealed in the written word. He comes and reveals Himself to all who live their lives in communion with Him.
Clearly Augustine did - and we can do so as well. The key which unlocks the door to this way of life is prayer. A Christian who does not pray is like a human person who does not breathe. Jesus Christ is alive. He is Risen. He is available to you and me as He was to Augustine. This style of approaching the Bible was perpetuated in the Western Church through the practice of Lectio Divina, praying the Scriptures.The Bible is an invitation into an encounter with the living God for every Christian. Its words are not a formula to obtain "success" in life, but an invitation into a communion of Love with the Living Word which is meant to bear the fruit of a new way of living in the Lord. The Bible is not some-thing, but reveals Some-One. In the words of St. Paul to Timothy, all Scripture is inspired by God. (2 Tim. 3:16) The Greek means God-breathed. They reveal Jesus Christ and our encounter with Him is the heart of what it means to be a Christian. As a young man, I searched for meaning and purpose in my life beyond the emptiness and materialism of the age. My search eventually they led to an encounter with the One who is the "Way, the Truth and the Life" (Jn. 14:6) and home to the Catholic Christian faith. One of the first fruits of this encounter was an unquenchable attraction to the Bible. I wanted to understand its meaning for my life. I spent nearly two years in a Benedictine Monastery where I began reading the Fathers of the Church and practicing what is called "Lectio Divina". It has carried me for years as I have continued the journey of following the Risen Jesus in His Church. The early Christians received the scriptures as a gift. They knew that the sacred words were to lead to a deeper communion of love with their source, the Living Word of God. Early theologians were mystics. My favorite definition of a theologian is from the Monk Evagrius of Pontus, someone who "rests his head on the chest of Christ." The image calls to mind the beloved disciple, John, depicted as doing just that in early Christian art. It also speaks of the indispensable prerequisite for any fruitful study of the Bible, a relationship with the Lord in the intimacy of prayer. Prayer must be practiced if it is to be perfected. Early Christians viewed the reading of Scripture as a way of encountering the Living Word, who gives Himself as bread to those who feed on this written Word. This practice is kept alive in the Christian monastic tradition, particularly among Benedictines in the West. It is embedded in the Eastern Christian tradition and especially evident in the writings of the early Church fathers. They wrote in a sort of stream of scriptural consciousness, moving from inspired thoughts to actual biblical quotes and back; most often without any reference to the specific "chapter and verse". The text was living within them. To use a phrase from my childhood they "knew it by heart." This way of encountering the Lord in His Word can be cultivated in our lives. It involves meeting the Lord in His word and being changed, converted, in that encounter. It can inform a rhythmic way of life steeped in the practice of the presence of God throughout the day. Participation in the rich and beautiful pattern of the Liturgical life of the Church, filled as it is with the Biblical texts that are arranged for the faithful every day, helps to develop this rhythm. This kind of prayer brings the word to life and changes the one engaged in it into the One whom they experience in the encounter. *****
St. Augustine: The Word Became Flesh and Revealed Life Itself We announce what existed from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our own eyes, what we have touched with our own hands. Who could touch the Word with his hands unless the Word was made flesh and lived among us?
Now this Word, whose flesh was so real that he could be touched by human hands, began to be flesh in the Virgin Mary's womb; but he did not begin to exist at that moment. We know this from what John says: What existed from the beginning. Notice how John's letter bears witness to his Gospel, which you just heard a moment ago: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God.
Someone might interpret the phrase the Word of life to mean a word about Christ, rather than Christ's body itself which was touched by human hands. But consider what comes next: and life itself was revealed. Christ therefore is himself the Word of life.
And how was this life revealed? It existed from the beginning, but was not revealed to men, only to angels, who looked upon it and feasted upon it as their own spiritual bread. But what does Scripture say? Mankind ate the bread of angels.
Life itself was therefore revealed in the flesh. In this way what was visible to the heart alone could become visible also to the eye, and so heal men's hearts. For the Word is visible to the heart alone, while flesh is visible to bodily eyes as well. We already possessed the means to see the flesh, but we had no means of seeing the Word. The Word was made flesh so that we could see it, to heal the part of us by which we could see the Word.
John continues: And we are witnesses and we proclaim to you that eternal life which was with the Father and has been revealed among us - one might say more simply "revealed to us."
We proclaim to you what we have heard and seen. Make sure that you grasp the meaning of these words. The disciples saw our Lord in the flesh, face to face; they heard the words he spoke, and in turn they proclaimed the message to us. So we also have heard, although we have not seen.
Are we then less favored than those who both saw and heard? If that were so, why should John add: so that you too may have fellowship with us? They saw, and we have not seen; yet we have fellowship with them, because we and they share the same faith.

Crimpled - The truth
Painting, Human figure, Acrylic, Canvas, 150x150cm, 2010
The truth is that we can never see the truth. A person may look young and naïve, but if you look more carefully, you notice their facial tension and frown lines. Profound experience is engraved in their skin. They may look older than their real age. In their eyes, things are different.

Beautiful Condo with great views!
This was our first time staying at Ariel Dunes.The condo is beautifully decorated and feels very cozy. It is very well taken care of and the 1 and 1/2 bath is great! We had a wonderful week stay here. The owner is great and he makes sure that if have any issues at all that you are taken care of! The resort is very clean and the pools are very well maintained. The beach is a bit of a walk especially with a toddler but the same with most resorts here. It was wonderful to have free beach service but be prepared for a bit of a walk down the beach. Our resolution was to drive down the street and park in the lot and then walk across the street. Then we learned that there was a beach trolly every 15 minutes and would take you to the same spot we were driving to! The only suggestion I would make is to have a broom available in the condo... we have a 2 year old and with all the sand trekked in from the beach and over a week it would have been nice to be able to sweep up. Other than that we have no complaints and will definitely be coming back. Thank you for the use of your beautiful condo!!!!
Beautiful Condo!
This was a beautiful unit! The pictures do not show how truly beautiful it is. It is even better than we expected! The layout was nice nice and very comfortable and the view is beautiful. We have been to Destin before and the other condo was very nice as well but this is the place we will return. The Cafe downstairs is very good and close if you don't want to go far. The customer service at the front desk was excellent. My husband brought his laptop but for some reason our broadband was not working. He took the jump drive downstairs on two occasions and they emailed the information out for us. And finally, Donna has been a pleasure to deal with from the moment I inquired about this unit. She called me right away and also changed dates for me with no hassle. Any time I have emailed or called her with questions she has been wonderful to deal with. Any futures stays in Destin will be in this unit. Thanks again Donna!

I was quick to anger a few weeks ago when I came upon a shoddy piece of work done by a Frommer's Travel writer, whose descriptions of "five scenic adventures" on Amtrak revealed a lack of preparation (see "Been There, Done That, This Is Crap," August 22). So I feel a lot better recommending to you a well researched online article that benefits from good input and solid reporting.
I'm talking about "All Aboard: Railroad Adventures for Every Budget," by freelance writer Jessica DuLong, for CNN.com.
I don't think Ms. DuLong personally experienced each of these trips. But her reporting is thorough enough to make you believe she did. I am especially impressed by her recommendation of a Metro North Railroad adventure to Poughkeepsie, N.Y. I never would have thought of his myself, and it makes me want to experience the views from the train, the River Front Restaurant and the Poughkeepsie bridge that towers above this Hudson River town.
The other adventures she recommends are all ones I would endorse: The Empire Builder from Chicago to Seattle, and the Canadian from Vancouver, B.C., to Toronto.
So three thumbs up and three hurrahs for good railroad travel journalism. — Fred W. Frailey
Yes, it was a very well written article, especially with Henry Posner adding creditbility to it
Ah, a great read. Lots of great recommendations in the comments too, and you know what? The comments are strangely free from people bashing passenger trains! Even more so than the comments here at Trains.com, unfortunately.
Rode the genuine "Canadian" (behind MLW-Alcos much of the way) and the "Builder" in 1981 and, growing up in the Bronx, first rode the then-Penn Central from Poughkeepsie to G.C.T. in filthy coaches with opaque windows circa 1969 -- no views then! But yes, Metro-North does a fine job on this line, and the scenery ranks with anything on the Amtrak system, including Glacier Park. Fred, when you come to the New York area, do not miss the Walkway Over the Hudson. My kids and I went on the opening day three years ago; imagine walking through the open air at that height, amidst that scenery, and among 15,000 other people not seeing ONE who looked nervous! The experience up there practically defines "glorious". Looking forward to sharing it with you --
Thanks, Fred. It is indeed a well written article. I rode the VIA route for the lst time in 1980, and we headed west from Winnipeg with an F(9, RS18, and E8A as tho power! What can beat that!?!?! I have a photo!
I'm glad to see the Hudson River route gets a reprieve from Fred after his earlier experience on the Adirondack.
About the NYC-Montreal Adirondack, it's actually a state sponsored train, NY State as being paying for it ever since the early 1970s. So feel in fact Fred none of your federal tax dollars are being wasted on this train.
Personally I never rode it to Montreal, but for the past several years Amtrak has attached its sole Budd Dome Car to the train from Albany to Montreal during the fall for the leave peepers, and I rode it twice. Compared to the Amfleet coaches you get a much better view and more relaxing space in the ex-GN dome.
The train crew can be unfriendly. The first time I rode it south bound for a short trip from Saratoga to Schenectady, and the café car attendant was very unfriendly, pushing out all the passengers in the dome before we had cross the Mohawk River into Schenectady, the most scenic highlight of that very short trip.
The second time I rode it northward from Saratoga to Port Henry where I got off and rode the southbound Adirondack back to Saratoga. This isn't a bad little trip, but I would think it better to start at Albany. You could also detrain at Plattsburg, stay overnight, and take the train back the next day. You could even get off at Port Kent and take the Lake Champlain ferry to Burlington, Vermont.
A big improvement for the Adirondack is going to be when US/Canadian customs and border inspections take place in Montreal's Central Station, as agreed upon and funded by NY State, Quebec, Vermont, and Amtrak. This will be similar to the Cascades service to Vancouver B.C. and will eliminate the long border stops at Rouses Point.
How this came to be is a big mystery, but political pressure on the U.S. Border Patrol from U.S. federal senators seemed to have played a big part. The State of Vermont wants to extend its state sponsored Vermonter to Montreal, the in-station inspection at Montreal facilitate will greatly facilitate this.
Given the scenic route, the Adirondack would make a great "land-cruise" train. Because of the tunnels in New York City you would need new single-level dome cars with big (and clean!) windows and comfortable interiors… with good food service.
The Adirondack is usually four to five coaches with a café car, so perhaps you could hook on the end a three car set, two "parlor cars" and a dining car. Similar to the Rocky Mountaineer passengers would stay overnight in NYC and Montreal, with perhaps the option of detraining for overnight stays at Saratoga Springs, Lake Placid (via bus), and Burlington (via ferry).
Since this is a state sponsored route, nothing is likely to happen without the involvement of the state government.
I read it and enjoyed it.
While the scenary isn't always as nice as the Hudson Valley, New York has several other relatively long-distance commuter runs that might be considered, including NJT/Metro-North to Port Jervis; LIRR to Montauk; NJT North Jersey Coast to Bay Head; and Metro-North to Wassaic, Danbury and Waterbury. Compared with Amtrak pricing, cheap thrills (but no frills).

Plaintiff Lorena Alamos was terminated from her position of collection clerk with defendant Practice Management Information Corporation. She took 8 weeks off from her job for pregnancy/maternity leave. She came to the workplace about one week prior to her agreed date of return to have lunch with a friend. While there, she got into an argument with the person who was temporarily replacing her. She was terminated the day she returned to work. The initial reason stated for her termination by her supervisor, Cuevas, was Cuevas discovered during her leave that she had gotten behind on some accounts. Cuevas later testified this job performance issue alone was not serious enough to justify termination; that her visit to the office was an additional reason. Both she and the executives who eventually approved of the termination claimed her pregnancy or maternity leave was not in any way a reason for her termination.
At trial of the lawsuit brought by plaintiff, the jury was instructed that an element of plaintiff's proof was to prove her maternity leave was "a motivation reason" for her discharge. Defendant requested a "mixed motive" instruction to the effect that the employer is not liable if it proved that, among the reasons for terminating plaintiff, there was a legitimate reason, standing alone, that would have caused the same decision. The trial judge refused the defense's requested instruction. The jury proceeded to render a general verdict in favor of plaintiff and awarded her $10,000. The trial judge additionally awarded Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) prevailing plaintiff attorney's fees in the amount of $50,858.
Defendant appealed. In Alamos v. Practice Management Information Corp. (filed 9/24/12, pub. ordered 10/18/12) 2012 DJDAR 14480, the Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, Division Seven, affirmed.
Defendant's first assertion on appeal was that the trial court prejudicially erred in failing to properly instruct the jury on the standard of causation in a FEHA claim. It criticizes the CACI instructions on "a motivating reason," saying that instead the BAJI instructions concerning motives would properly set forth a defendant's mixed motive defense that the same termination decision would have been made in the absence of the discriminatory motive. The appellate court noted that this issue is currently pending before the California Supreme Court in Harris v. City of Santa Monica. However, the high court's dicta in other cases strongly suggests that "a motivating reason" is the proper causation standard. As the court stated in Guz v. Bechtel National, Inc. (2000) 24 Cal.4th 317, 358: "[T]he ultimate issue is simply whether the employer acted with a motive to discriminate illegally."
In any event, in the present case, defendant never claimed it had a mixed motive that included the motive of terminating plaintiff because of her pregnancy or maternity leave. Because both parties consistently claimed there was but a single motive to terminate (while disagreeing as to what that motive was--a factual question that the jury decided in favor of plaintiff), the trial court had no reason to give the mixed-motive instruction even if it were a correct statement of law.
Defendant additionally appeals the trial court's attorney's fees order. It claims that, because the verdict form failed to specify whether plaintiff prevailed under FEHA or the common law cause of action alleged by plaintiff, it cannot be said that plaintiff was successful on a FEHA cause of action that statutorily provides for attorney's fees. In addition to the court's noting that all causes of actions were FEHA-related and the resolution of the facts in this case meant that the jury either found liability on all of the causes of action or on none of them, defendant invited error, if any. The nature of the invited error is that it failed to object to the verdict form and in fact drafted it.
Aside from the legal issue in this case that has yet to be finally determined by the Supreme Court, I see this opinion as a good example of trial strategy gone bad. If counsel's' strategy at trial fails (here, the strategy to claim no mixed motive and to try to avoid liability for the opponent's attorney fees by "sandbagging" the verdict form), counsel should not expect that strategy to be saved by a legal argument on appeal that is not supported by the actions taken in the trial court.

I am a self-taught artist. My media of choice are collage, dolls, & quilts. When it is enhancing to what I am creating the written word is also incorporated. The influences of the African diaspora which were prevalent as I grew up in Baltimore, not only shaped me but my art. The love, honor and respect that I have for my heritage permeates my work. Doll making and quilting appeal to me because they are both multi-media constructions that allow me to indulge my love of working with fabric, fibers, and embellishments.

The Constitution
I ran into this video today:
"How do you know if the Constitution has been perverted if you haven't read it."
Politicians, especially conservative politicians, drive me crazy sometimes because they just blatantly ignore the Constitution. Conservatives drive me more crazy because they pretend to care about it.
Attorney General Holder recently make a distinction between "due process" and "judicial process" while justifying Obama's killing of U.S. Citizens (terrorists) overseas. Frightening stuff (see this Colbert clip for an entertaining recap). Apparently due process can be "the president decides to kill you, and then does" and it's "Constitutionally" considered "due process" by this administration. In this case this politician HAS read the Constitution and is trying to twist the words to subvert it.
Then you have people like Newt Gingrich, a supposed historian, who apparently has no clue what it says and/or doesn't care. Actually, he probably DOES know what it says, but like the guy in the video suggests, knows people won't challenge him because they have never read it.
"Any American, who actively advocates killing Americans, places themselves in our Constitution as a traitor," Gingrich added. "The American who the president authorized killing in Yemen was an enemy combatant. Enemy combatants don't get Miranda rights. I think it's very important that this is a war…the president, in this one area, is right." - Newt
Ok… they are a traitor according to the Constitution. True. But what does the Constitution ACTUALLY SAY about traitors NEWT!?
Article III, Section 3
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court. The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attained.
It's not even an amendment, it's just part of the body of the Constitution!
