Efficiency improves, but young and old vulnerable.
Almost 95% of income tax returns were processed within three seconds of submission in the 2013/2014 fiscal year.
The South African Revenue Service (Sars) has come a long way since 2007 when only 2.6% of returns were processed within 48 hours of submission. The improvement in the turnaround times of assessments comes largely on the back of the modernisation of its processes, notably eFiling.
Each year Sars and the National Treasury release a joint publication called Tax Statistics. The booklet aims to inform the public and other interested parties of revenue collection figures, offers insight into economic indicators and is also an effort to assist policy makers.

Product Description
From Amazon
Prayers, poems, and songs to the Goddess from around the world and across the ages have been collected and adapted for the modern devotee in The Goddess Companion: Daily Meditations on the Feminine Spirit. Author Patricia Monaghan offers a disparate meditation for each day of the year, including February 29--April 5 is a Lithuanian folksong; August 6 a quotation from Proverbs; October 17 a Korean shaman's chant. After each prayer there is a two-paragraph "thought for the day" in which Monaghan offers the reader philosophical observations or helpful advice designed to assist living and growing in the spirit of the feminine. The very pretty purple and gold-embossed cover makes it an excellent nightstand adornment, and the gentle meditations are a stress-reducing way to begin or end your day by honoring Her and Her spirit in yourself. --P. Randall Cohan
About the Author
One of the leaders of the contemporary earth spirituality movement, Patricia Monaghan (1946 - 2012) had spent more than 20 years researching and writing about alternative visions of the earth. Raised in Alaska, where much of her family still lives, she considered herself blessed to have learned the ecology of the taiga, the subarctic forest, in her youth. She was a writer and reporter on science and energy-related issues before turning her attention to the impact of mythic structures on our everyday lives.
The worldwide vision of the earth as feminine--as a goddess, called Gaia by the Greeks--led her to recognize the connection between ecological damage and the oppression of the feminine in Western society. Much of her work since that time had explored the question of the role of feminine power in our world, in an inclusive and multicultural way.
An avid traveler, Patricia had researched earth spirituality and goddess worship on three continents, and traveled widely in Europe, especially in Ireland. She held dual US/Irish citizenship and edited two anthologies of contemporary Irish-American writing.
Patricia was member of the resident faculty at DePaul University's School for New Learning in Chicago, where she taught science and literature. She passed from this world in November 2012 and is survived by her husband, Dr Michael McDermott.

Given Monoghan's research and studies, I was disappointed with the lack of depth provided--I expected much more information about the goddesses or rituals.
Overall, not a bad book. I just think it could be done a bit better.

Being a lover of culture from around the world, I have to admit that this book fed my need to learn about other countries/regions/lifestyles and so on, without being presented in a formal manner. Moreover, the author's background as "a foreigner" made the reading that much more appealing. I recall a time when I lived in Jamaica, for a year and a half to be exact. At that time, my request to everyone was that I be treated as a local, in order to experience life as a Jamaican. I didn't care to do all of the tourist features because those would not allow me to truly know what it meant to be a Jamaican. That feeling I am referring to is the very one that I encountered in "I Live In Chile". Baker gives a detailed account of "his Chile". And it fascinates me, since he was born in the USA and has since relocated to Chile, essentially going to a collectivist society. That's another point that interests me - blending with other societies. But oh, he gives you so much to think about that I could not possibly outline it all in a book review.
Might I add that Baker has an excellent sense of humor, combined with so much knowledge! Perhaps that is understandable considering he is a teacher, but I can only imagine the tremendous job he must do with his students. To be able to relate what he knows, or has come to know, in a manner that is just plain enjoyable.Read more ›
This book will provide insights that are not found in regular travel guides about Chile. You will learn about Chile in a very informal way. A look at the table of contents prepares you for this special book. There is a prologue, in which the author uses a conversational tone, as if he were in an intimate conversation with the reader.
Most importantly, he shares that he knew absolutely nothing about Chile when he first went there. This allows the reader to discover the country with him. You are seeing Chile, and you are seeing his life in Chile, not as a tourist, but as someone who has come to have a deep and passionate love for Chile and its people. Thomas Baker has a sense of humor too, so do not expect this book to be serious and dry, with no fun. On the contrary, this man is enjoying his life in Chile, and his sense of humor clearly is a part of his life there. This book is definitely a must-read for anyone who has an interest in Chile.
This book is easy to read and offers the reader a deep insight into the relationship these warm people have with their striking landscape. Thomas Baker gives us a detailed and intriguing look at this interesting country. I, for one, want to visit Chile now after reading this great book and I will recommend it highly.
The stories and experiences are biased, but it is not a bad thing; after all, we all have our own way of experiencing the same thing. And in this case, it is easy to see Baker's understanding of the country and relate to it as he has. And don't get me wrong, this is not simply a "love fest" for Chile; it is a complete account of a culture: language, landscape, country, and history - through foreign eyes.
The book contains hilarious exchanges between the author and his wife, links to background and historical information, and even videos filmed by the author or family members. This novella truly utilizes technology to provide a complete experience. It's almost as good as being there.
The writing is impeccable and elevated, yet easy to understand and visualize everything the author is trying to convey. Thomas Baker's skills with the English language show through on every page, and serve as a demonstration of his skills as an instructor. I recommend checking out some of his other books and novellas; they are all inspiring.

Have stayed here several times in the last year without incident. This last experience was the absolute worst. It seems that the ownership has changed, or drastically decided not to maintain the property any more. I sometimes spend 3-4 days here, but not again at this property:
We arrived late on Saturday evening after a day of driving. and visiting family. The TV in the bedroom was fuzzy, so we dispensed with watching the local news and just went to sleep. Trying to use the hair dryer in the morning, I discovered it didn't work. We then went down to the dining room at 9:20, to find that half of the food had already been cleared away. Several other guests also asked why this was happening and we were told that this property "does not serve breakfast after 9:30 on ANY day". I immediately went to the front desk with my hair dripping wet to complain about the lack of breakfast, the fuzzy TV AND the broken hair dryer and the clerk asked me if I called anyone at the front desk about it to report it. I told him that I was personally reporting it now, and that I was too tired to call someone to fix my fuzzy TV at 11:00 at night. He said that I was supposed to call the front desk immediately. Like they were going to ignore it because I was reporting it in person? He didn't seem to notice that my hair was wet and insisted that I "Call the front desk to report it". WHAT?? I felt like I was in Hotel Hell. He told me that he would "send someone up with a hair dryer in a few minutes". No one ever showed up and we left after 30 minutes of waiting.
The statement about not serving breakfast after 9:30 was a lie, because I've stayed here before, and made waffles at 10:00 in their dining room on weekends. Even McDonald's serves breakfast on weekends until 10:30, why not THIS hotel? We went next door to Wendy's and had great croissants & coffee,and found other guests there from the hotel who were enduring the same experience.
On this visit, I also noticed that neither pool was clear, having extremely cloudy water, indicating more neglect. As a pool owner, I know it takes very little to maintain a clean, sparkling pool, if filters are run consistently and chemicals are balanced. This property was doing neither, bringing into question additional sanitation issues of the facility.
Sadly, this property is now OFF my hotel list. I will miss the other intelligent staff and maintenance man, in addition to the friendly, hard-working girls in the kitchen. On another weekend that I stayed, 2 of the girls were out and the maintenance man had to do breakfast for all of us by himself assisted by the desk clerk. They did an admirable job, and we DID have breakfast service until 10:30.
Shame on this franchise for failing to keep up with its competitors. It marks their demise as a great place to stay, and will affect the reputation of the Days Inn brand as well. Really too bad.

On a very windy day this was a calm spot in the Keys. The beach area is small, but a nice bay for swimming and snorkeling.
I love this little beach! There are swings and a newly renovated playground! There are grills to cook on and a Tiki covered picnic area. There are bathrooms and a shower to change before or after swimming. This is close to my house and I frequently take my kids to play.
would be a good spot to take small children, but even my teens had fun playing in the water there. Be careful as the water does get deep in the canal. It has a sandy beach, grass, swings and lots of play equipment for the little ones.
Great spot to hangout with little ones. Beautiful view. There are restrooms and some play equipment for kids. Couple picnic tables for lunch or a snack. Can't beat it for free!
Nice relaxing very small public spot. Great place to let small children out to run around and burn off energy. Picnic lunch could be had. Boats will go by randomly. This is NOT a beach.
Shallow water, a play park, bathroom facilities & outdoor shower. Good for younger children. Not really a beach in the true sense of the word as not much sand to dig in, but it would keep the kids entertained.
This used to be a "local" secret....small little beach tucked behind the library with bathroom facitities and a playground...but it has been discovered!! Still a great little place to hang out during the week. They are, however, building condos directly north of the beach....this might take away from the privacy and quaintness we have enjoyed ...
Great little place to snorkel for kids. Just be careful, boats will sometimes come in to pass through, use a divers buoy. You can see lots of fishand nurse sharks here.
So we stopped by here after seeing some reviews. I did see a wonderful iguana take off toward the water. We never made it into the water to try the snorkeling there, but we could see the appeal. It did seem a little deserted when we were there. However, my husband and son used the facilities to change and said...
This modest little beach park is tucked away behind the Islamorada Public Library. Facilities include an outdoor shower, bathrooms and changing rooms. There is also a playground for young children and a small picnic shelter with a table. It is a small beach on a canal that leads to a bay. Swim at your own risk and watch out for...

This IDC study highlights the rapidly emerging software-defined networking (SDN) market and its associated ecosystem in Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan). As SDN start-ups and other market leaders bring additional products and SDN technologies to market, customers will have more choices not only in what products they purchase but also in how they design and build their datacenter networks to support application workloads.
"Virtualization and cloud computing will boost the innovation drive in network architecture and operations and SDN is a response to that. As Asia/Pacific enterprises start embracing it, vendors in the ecosystem need to play the pathfinder role to educate and build awareness among channels and customers in their SDN journey," says Surjyadeb Goswami, research manager, Enterprise Computing, IDC Asia/Pacific.

We examine the effect of race on market outcomes by selling iPods through local online classified advertisements throughout the US. Each advertisement features a photograph including a dark or light-skinned hand, or one with a wrist tattoo. Black sellers receive fewer and lower offers than white sellers, and the correspondence with black sellers indicates lower levels of trust. Black sellers' outcomes are particularly poor in thin markets (suggesting that discrimination may not 'survive' competition among buyers) and those with the most racial isolation and property crime (consistent with channels through which statistical discrimination might operate).

Human resource management (HRM) education has tended to focus on specific functions and tasks within organizations, such as compensation, staffing, and evaluation. This task orientation within HRM education fails to account for the bigger questions facing human resource management and employment relationships, questions which address the roles and responsibilities of the HR function and HR practitioners. An educational focus on HRM that does not explicitly address larger ethical questions fails to equip students to address stakeholder concerns about how employees are treated or the ethical dilemmas facing employers with regard to the employment relationship, and ironically makes the HRM function less strategic to the organization. In this paper, we identify some of the key ethical issues within the employment relationship, discuss how extant HRM education often fails to address these issues or help students to become aware of them, and offer a framework for integrating ethics into HRM education.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

A to-do list for the year
By Bernie Noe, head of school
Welcome to the new school year at Lakeside, everyone. I hope that you all had a great summer and are rested and ready to dive into classes, sports, arts, and the many activities that make Lakeside's campus such a busy, engaging place!
I love the start of the school year, as we all—students and adults alike—return each fall with a sense of a new beginning and refreshed optimism about what is to come. We all get to reinvent ourselves slightly each year, as we resolve to improve in areas that proved problematic for us in the past, and much of the time we are successful!
At the outset of this new school year, I'd like to share with you what I will be working on as school head this year.
My overarching goal each year is to make sure that we are achieving day-to-day excellence in all of the school's programs. I spend much of my time meeting with administrators, teachers, parents and guardians, and students to follow up on projects that we are working on together and to learn about what is going on around the school—especially in the classrooms. The bottom line for me, every year, is that I wish for each of our students to have a great overall academic, athletic, and artistic experience.
Each year we single out particular programs for review if we have not done so in a while or if we feel that the programs have some issues that we wish to address. This year we have chosen for review our diversity and global initiatives. We do not feel that there are major problems with these programs, but we have not reviewed them in several years.
With the retirement of T. J. Vassar '68, our long-time director of diversity, it is a good time for us to take a thorough look at our diversity efforts before hiring a new director. We will spend the fall consulting with students, parents and guardians, faculty and staff, alumni, and Board members, and will arrive at some conclusions about the course of action we will take over the next three to five years. We will also write a charge for a new director of diversity.
We will begin our review of our global programs in January and, as with the diversity program, will consult with the breadth of our school community about the direction we will take in the coming years. Vicki Weeks '73, who founded our Global Service Learning (GSL) program, retired at the end of this past school year and so it was time to step back to review where we are with GSL. We will conclude this study in May of 2012.
I believe that you are all aware that during the 2010-2011 school year we conducted an extensive review of our athletic programs and decided to make some significant changes in our coaching structure for this coming school year, appointing program heads who each oversee all aspects of an individual sport across grade levels (find details in Athletic Director
Abe Wehmiller's story
and Board Chair
Connie Ballmer's story
Inside Lakeside
). I will work with Abe, as well as with Middle School Director Anne Stavney and Upper School Director Than Healy, to implement those changes this year. We are excited about what this new approach to athletics could mean for our students!
Finally, I will spend a good bit of time, along with school leaders, working on budgeting issues. It is our goal to keep costs down and to ask ourselves continually if we are being good stewards of our school's resources.
So, folks, that is where I will be putting my energy this year. If you have any questions or comments about any of this, please feel free to e-mail or call me.
See you all in the next few weeks at games, performances, and back-to-school nights! Enjoy the fall!


text: The Eiger chalet is a rambling and somewhat basic hotel, due to having been built and added to over the years by the original owners. For me, being ski-in-ski-out, with truly delicious meals included was the selling point. I have stayed here twice and love the family homely atmosphere with a sense of history (being one of the original hotels in Perisher). The evening meals are very good indeed. I enjoyed taking a sauna when I got back after a hard days skiing. I found the staff helpful and friendly. True you do have to carry your gear to the room - but hey - you're skiing - what's wrong with your legs?!!! For me it was ultra convenient and comfortable, and I would definitely return again.

On 20 April 2009, National University of Singapore (NUS) Virtual Institute for the Study of Ageing (VISA) organized its first conference, titled "Aging well in a time of longevity." This one-day conference was the first to draw together NUS researchers from cross disciplines, including clinical, social-political, engineering, and design, for an exciting exchange of research and meeting of views on the issues of aging well.
Among the themes that emerged across the disciplines was "active aging," and discussions included sociologists' call for ways to foster active aging (rather than just how to measure it), psychiatrists' reports on the positive impact of measures to promote active aging on reducing elderly suicides in Singapore, as well as the relationships between work, social engagement and active aging, and social workers' comments that active aging is overwhelmingly biased toward the able bodied.
There is a need to study how disabled people view aging as well as active aging. Dr. Bozovic Stamenovic from the NUS Department of Architecture further asserted that physical environment is a determinant for active aging and called for a "total living environment" that presents not just healthy but also healing spaces to benefit the elderly. The meeting suggested potential areas for further multidisciplinary research on active aging.
Conference program and presentation materials from the conference can be downloaded from http://www.nus.edu.sg/dpr/visa/events.htm.

Not Your Typical Dinner Gig
Last night's state dinner, wherein President Barack Obama hosted Chinese President Hu Jintao, featured plenty of jazz. Herbie Hancock was among the headlining performers, as were Dee Dee Bridgewater, Dianne Reeves and Chris Botti. (The Chinese-born, New York-based classical pianist Lang Lang also appeared.) And the backing band? Randy Brecker on trumpet, Antonio Hart on alto sax, James Genus on bass, Peter Martin on piano and Matt Wilson on drums — you know, just some cats from 'round the way, who the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz helped to present. More details about the rest of the ceremony are in the White House program (opens a PDF).
A Blog Supreme tried to sneak in by posing as legitimate journalists, but disappointingly, the Secret Service seems to have learned its lesson from Michaele and Tareq Salahi. (I knew I should have sprung for the more expensive wig.)
Also, from @mattwilsonjazz on Twitter: "Pretty wild to hear the President of the US announce your name!! Shook his hand and I kissed the First Lady! Clinton & Carter are hipsters!"

Job: Bartender, Blake's on the Park
Age: 33
Relationship Status: Single
Whether he's working out or working behind the bar at Blake's, Jim's goal is self-improvement. This year, he hopes, will be a year full of mental, physical, and spiritual growth. But Jim's got a chill side, too. Or at least a side that doesn't take himself too seriously. Maybe it was the tap dancing lessons he took as a kid. Or maybe it's the healthy, loving relationship he has with his mother. Either way, any guy who freely admits he dug The Hunger Games series is comfortable in his own skin. Having "True Blood" stud Joe Manganiello and Gerard Butler as celebrity look-alikes and dreamy hazel blue eyes probably doesn't hurt, either. — Stephanie Dazey
How long have you lived in Atlanta?
10 years.
How long have your worked at Blake's?
I've been there for two years.
What is your job title? What do you like best about your job?
Bartender. And I like the social interaction.
What's your standard drink?
My go-to? Vodka water.
What band were you obsessed with when you were 14?
I do like a lot of country music ... so I guess Garth brooks.
What's your guiltiest pleasure?
Wine, 'cause its usually not a glass or two, it's a bottle.
What's your least favorite household chore?
Cleaning windows.
Describe your relationship to exercise.
I enjoy it very much. I do a good boot camp three or four times a week. And I do spin class.
What's the last thing that made you cry?
It's been a long time. I can't remember the last time I cried.
What's the last good book you read?
I loved The Hunger Games series, all of it. It was great.
What do you wish someone would hurry up and invent?
Probably just some way to get rid of gasoline.
What's the lamest pickup line anyone's used on you?
I had somebody actually try to pick me up and it came out as an insult. Its like are you trying to put me down before you pick me up? They said, "I wanna teach you how to grow a beard." Like really? I was like that's insulting. And they're like, "Wanna go out for dinner?"
What movie would you most like to live in?
I'm not a real movie buff. I'm gonna have to pass.
What's the first album you bought with your own money?
What's the best way for a customer to hit on you?
The best way? Tipping well, because it kind of sets up the mood. If you're a generous tipper, you'll be generous in some way when we're seeing each other. It's a good sign.
Who would play you in the movie of your life?
Taylor Kinney.
What's the one thing you most hope to accomplish this year?
I really just want to make this the best year personally for myself, a year to concentrate on myself, my mental wellbeing, my physical wellbeing. I want it to be the best year I've ever had.
What's your least favorite thing about Atlanta?
Is there a drawback to being attractive?
You know, I've never considered myself that way. It's flattering, I do hear it, but it's not something I get used to. Anything can be taken away for whatever reason so I like to have a good personality to back that up.
Name one thing you've stolen.
When I was little I stole candy from a candy store.
Who's the most important person in your life?
My mom.
What's your sexy-time soundtrack?
I like some Sade. Prince is an asshole cause of that lawsuit he put on everyone so I'm kind of over him.
Have you ever been dumped? If so, what was the reason?
I have been dumped. But I guess the funny thing is they always try to come back ...
What's your pettiest relationship deal-breaker?
Not tipping.
What would you order for your last meal?
How much would you charge to murder a stranger?
[Laughs] It depends who it was. If I had a mutual dislike for them I would go cheap. Probably for nothing if I didn't like them.
How do you handle rejection?
Pretty well, you know, you just move on to the next. You can't dwell on things you can't control.
With whom would you like to play Truth or Dare?
Joe Manganiello. He's the werewolf from "True Blood."
What did your parents want you to do with your life?
Be happy.
Have you ever stalked someone on Instagram?
No, I just got on Instagram today! So I might. I'm not ruling it out.
How often do you talk to your mother?
Two or three times a week.
What's your preferred footwear?
Nike sneakers.
What's the most romantic place in Atlanta?
I like Babette's Cafe.
What's your wackiest piece of personal trivia?
I took tap dancing classes as a kid.
What's your weirdest recurring dream?
It's anything having to do with robots, which is weird because I've never obsessed over robots.
What personal attribute are you a sucker for?
Where would you go on a bucket list vacation?
Not counting rent or bills, where does most of your disposable income go?
Going out to eat.
What's your life's ambition/grandest dream?
Money. To be independently wealthy is probably a dream for everybody. But really, just to be happy in life, with friends, family, you know. To just have everything in balance.
If you had to spend a million dollars in one afternoon, what would you do?
Probably make sure that my family was taken care of, as far as their homes, pay off all my bills, take everyone on a vacation.
Have you ever stolen a friend's boyfriend/girlfriend?
What's your own character flaw you'd most like to fix?
Probably not to be shy, especially since I've started bartending.
Why do you think someone nominated you for the Lust List?
I have no idea, and I was very flattered by it. It was just kind of like, really? OK.
Entirely unnecessary article; I would never be friends with a vegetarian.

Former Programming Director at WEDU Dies
Published: Monday, December 3, 2012 at 2:33 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, December 3, 2012 at 2:33 a.m.
ST. PETERSBURG | From its inception in 1958, WEDU-Ch. 3 has positioned itself as a hopeful alternative to privately owned television.
Operating out of studios in what was then St. Petersburg Junior College, idealistic executives designed courses, built fairy castles out of papier-mache and lugged cable across campus to broadcast basketball games in black and white.
It was the perfect kind of job for Steve Tyrrell, the public television station's longtime programming director and its most visible face during fundraising drives. The career teacher joined WEDU in 1960 and returned to the airwaves for pledge drives even after his retirement more than 30 years later.
His ability to weave facts into a narrative persuaded viewers to donate their cash and commodities to keep the station alive.
Tyrrell, who built WEDU's programming menu from a small televised classroom to a successful PBS affiliate, died Nov. 17, of pancreatic cancer. He was 90.
Tyrrell is survived by sons Michael, James and John Tyrrell; daughter Stephanie Tyrrell; stepdaughters Elaine Lowitz and Lisa Elder; and stepson John Kenney.

Skip to comments.Meet "Kosher Frank" (Pope says Church cannot engage in proselytism)

"I wonder how the Jewish friend of the Pope will feel when he dies and discovers that he failed to believe in Jesus Christ and cannot be saved? Will he wonder why his friend thought his conversion was unimportant?"
More than likely they'll be burning right next to each other, or at least within screaming distance, assuming the Rabbi doesn't repent. So, I imagine he'll be able to settle his curiosity by asking the Pope directly!
I quoted the Pope, verbatim, with nothing added.
Your links don't.
He didn't say that. In that much misquoted letter which he sent to the atheist editor of La Reppublica, Pope Francis actually began that part of the conversation by saying "Premise that and its the fundamental thing the mercy of God has no limits if one turns to him with a sincere and contrite heart."
It's possible that part wasn't quoted in whatever garbled version of it you might have read. Tendentious accounts tend to cut it out; tendentious readers tend to pass over over it unseeingly, as if that weren't his premise; as if it weren't underlined as fundamental; as if he hadn't said it at all.
Chesterbelloc, you have us done great service in quoting this gem from the blessed Ignatius. I am going to "retweet" it frequently in this forum til I wear it out!
Do you ever try to convert anyone to Catholicism? If you do, you're disobeying the Pope. Are you strong-arming and "proselytizing" your children by dragging them to Mass on Sundays?
Do you remember your Confirmation? When you became a soldier of Christ?
You quoted a report by someone who talked to Pope Francis. I quoted reports by people who talked to Pope Francis.
Second sentence: he doesn't mean you NEVER convince him to be a Catholic. Just reaching out and helping your brother, neighbor-love, may well be enough --- it may be literally all you can do --- at some time, in some place, or with some particular person. (Then, as the Pope's insight suggests, you pray for the Holy Spirit to do the rest.)
When Jesus commanded us, "Go and do likewise," he was talking about a Samaritan who responded compassionately and helped a Jew. This defines what neighbor-love is. This is Scripture. It's not anti-Evangelical. It is the Evangelion.
I accept the Pope's premise, I reject his conclusion.
Care to post, in full context, whatever version you are referencing? Then we'll be on the same page.
Nope. I quoted Pope Francis, verbatim. And no one his leper curial court has denied it.
Is there a recording of Pope Francis' conversation?
What's with the delay? The poor old atheist editor is 89 years old; and the Pope's Jewish guest in Casa de Marta, even though a "young" 63 has this to say about his host: "I eat with him at breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. He cares for me, and controls everything regarding my food to makes sure it is all kosher, and according to my religious tradition. These are festive days, and I have to say certain prayers at meals and, I expand the last prayer and translate it. He accompanies me together with the others at table -his secretaries and a bishop, and they all say Amen at the end, the Rabbi said.
The pope is not being charitable (in the true sense of the word) to either the atheist or the Rabbi.
I repeat. He has absolutely no desire to convert anyone to Catholicism!
Is there a posting of the interview on the Vatican website?
Psst! The Oath Against Modernism is not on the Vatican website!
"Is there a posting of the interview on the Vatican website?"
Does there have to be?
"Psst! The Oath Against Modernism is not on the Vatican website!"
Does it have to be when it is no longer required? This is at the Vatican website:
"'To open oneself to modernity is a duty.' Pope Francis
Seriously, somebody needs to put a muzzle on this Jesuit Gone Wild until they can medicate his bipolar personality. One minute he's telling us that "When we do not profess Jesus Christ, the saying of Léon Bloy comes to mind: 'Anyone who does not pray to the Lord prays to the devil,'" the pope added, quoting the famous French novelist.
"When we do not profess Jesus Christ, we profess the worldliness of the devil, a demonic worldliness," he said.
and the next thing he's doing is stating, " I give a thought, too, to the dear Muslim immigrants that are beginning the fast of Ramadan, with best wishes for abundant spiritual fruits."
"What do mean by The Oath Against Modernism is no longer required?"
I mean that it is no longer required by the Church for ordination or incardination.
"Seriously, somebody needs to put a muzzle on this Jesuit Gone Wild until they can medicate his bipolar personality."
I think weak minded or stupid individuals are having issues dealing with him. He also has a tendency to say things but not in the most complete fashion so that he is easily taken out of context. I have not suffered in the least - except for the fact that I have to repeatedly explain his comments to those who are too stupid or lazy to do any research and see his other or fuller comments.
And I think only weak minded or stupid individuals do not see the duplicity of the current Bishop of Rome who openly embraces Modernism. I have not take one thing out of context; I challenge you to prove otherwise.
"And I think only weak minded or stupid individuals do not see the duplicity of the current Bishop of Rome who openly embraces Modernism."
Your opinions simply don't matter. He's the pope and there's nothing you or anyone else can do about it. I always wonder why people get so worked up over a man who will be dead in a few short years and who won't change a single Catholic dogma in the meantime.
"I have not take one thing out of context; I challenge you to prove otherwise."
No, I challenge you to prove your understanding is correct when I posted evidence to the contrary.
This is becoming quite hilarious! Kindly READ the original post of this thread. Once you do, you will note that the Pope is who is depicted as shunning the word "proselyte" or "proselytize". I couldn't care less what the World Council of Churches or the Greek government, for that matter - though it is noted how they failed to define what they even meant by the word they claim to ban people from doing - deems "appropriate", the point of discussion is that there IS no real difference in "evangelizing" or "proselytizing" - except in the minds of those too concerned over appearances than doing the will of God. Getta grip!
I'll trade my recipe for the Curried Butternut Squash Soup I fixed for dinner tonight for your recipe for nice German Potato Soup. :o)
"Once you do, you will note that the Pope is who is depicted as shunning the word "proselyte" or "proselytize"."
I already knew this. When did you finally figure it out? Oh, that's right, you probably already knew it. I did. What's your point.
"... the point of discussion is that there IS no real difference in "evangelizing" or "proselytizing""
And I showed that that is not the case. You don't have to like it. It's just true.
" - except in the minds of those too concerned over appearances than doing the will of God. Getta grip!"
Already had one. Again, I posted clear examples of people saying the words were not the same thing in a certain context. I was right all along. So was the pope. Get used to it.
It's good advice.
I am very much indebted to my son, a priest, who a number of times has offered this quote to me for my reflection. It has helped me to make efforts to think much before speaking much and to be a respecter of persons. (1Peter 2:17 ,1Peter 5:15).
I also have seen my son apply this rule himself and I believe that it has helped him to be a respected and loved pastor.
This is in contrary to what you, boatbums have said before -- that you believed that Jews would be saved as per the Old Covenant. But I guess you changed your doctrine. ok
Ditto for you metmom — didn't you have a large fight last year about Jews being saved? Well, that's your choice to change your doctrine.
Nope...nothing changed including your inability to quote other's comments properly and in context. Here IS what I said. Those Jews prior to the coming of Christ, the Messiah, had faith that God would send Him and that he would bear the sins of the people. They looked FORWARD to the coming of the savior as we Christians look BACKWARD to Jesus Christ. It is STILL by grace through faith. The feast days and sacrifices were done as demonstrations of that faith and the blood sacrifices were as a "covering" for sins until THE Lamb of God came to take away the sins of the world. Once Jesus came and died, there remains no more sacrifice for sin. His one time payment sanctified FOREVER those who receive Him as Savior. Any more questions?
One more thought on this, since you neglected to use my actual comment, which was:
But, since you asked me, YES, not only Jews, but Muslims, Hindus, atheists, humanists and every other ism or ist that rejects Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord will be in hell for eternity, separated from God because of unbelief. At one time, I believe, this was even the doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church, was it not? Just for clarification, are you not in sync with your own church now?
So, will you answer my question since I answered yours?
Did I have a fight with someone last year? With who? Which side of the argument did I take?
Well, thats your choice to change your doctrine.
Did I? Did bb?
Why don't you provide the links to prove yourself right instead of throwing out spurious claims as if they were fact?
Still trying to stir up discord in the wee hours, I see? Slow day?
Standard operating procedure for this one. As you can see my comment was misquoted AND taken out of context. Probably hoping it stayed out there all night to stir up a little discord. Glad you were still up, mm. :o)
Got up. I couldn't sleep so decided to get a little snack.
Shall I get a bit of popecorn popped while we wait (not holding our breath) for the requested evidence?
I wonder what position I took in the *large fight*.
Does it matter? Whichever side would be the "wrong" one, and being there is enough "deposit of double-talk" to quote mine from --- it can be proven you are wrong.
Feel the love (you heretic). Oh, and come home, too. We've missed you while we've bashed you, calling you a liar up one side and down the other...
I've found it's helpful to say, "I don't understand what you mean."
Note a few ingredients you might not expect: white wine and radishes. The white wine may be traded in for more broth (but I wouldn't!); for the radishes (which I have abundantly in my garden) you may substitute turnips (in my case, where radishes abound, turnips superabound).
German Potato Soup - 3 - 4 servings
1 cup diced onion (1 small)
1 clove garlic
2 T. olive oil
3 1/2 cups diced potatoes
(I scrub and score rather than peel)
1 cup white wine
1 carton (26 oz) chicken broth
1 1/2 cup thinly sliced radishes
3/4 cup evaporated milk
Chicken bouillon granules, to taste
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
Croutons and sliced sausage for garnish
(Shredded cheddar if you wish)
Sauté the onion in oil in a soup pot until translucent. Add potatoes, cook for a few minutes just to coat with oil and warm, add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add white wine and cook, stirring until the wine is almost gone. Add the broth and simmer until the potatoes are soft. While the potatoes are cooking, peel the radishes (I just scrub and score them) ) and cut into thin slices. Add to the potatoes and cook for about 5 minutes.
At this point, everything should be soft. Puree half, and leave half chunky. Add evap. milk, and pepper to taste. Add sliced sausage and heat through, serve hot with homemade buttered croutons.
Quick answer: No; unless they contradict perennial Church teaching. And much of VC II does.
Before you told us to "Pay no attention to any Popes after Pope Pius XII. Pay no attention to the Second Vatican council," but later you stated "I have rejected neither" \V2 or Pope Francis.] Now it is much of V2 that is to be rejected.
In any case, what is to be rejected is subject to different interpretations, using fallible human reasoning, which RCs tell us cannot give assurance, thus RCs promote the magisterium as the solution to different interpretations and for assurance.
Most seem to hold that that the differences of V2 that you reject are "clarifications" and are now the standard, while you must also judge what is binding teaching in encyclicals and bulls, etc., and even the CCC, and which magisterial level multitudes of teachings fall under, and thus what level of submission is required.
"Beloved: sanctify Christ in your hearts. Always be ready to give an explanation for the reason of your hope, but do it with gentleness and reverence."
"He who loves his brother abides in the light."
I've never understood the abused wife syndrome, where she keeps going back to the man who beats her.
I've experienced enough of the loving arms of the Catholic church since I was a kid. It was no different then when I was a Catholic than it is now.
I'll pass, thankyouverymuch.
The following has been a great help to me:
"Respect everyone
Be sensitive to others—they are your brothers and sisters
Try to find something good, even in the worst circumstances
Do not cast a slur on anyone
Repair any harm resulting from an uttered word
Do not provoke strife between people
Speak to everyone in the language of love
Do not vex others
Reassure others
Forgive everything
Do not hold grudges
Always be the first to extend your hand as a sign of reconciliation
Act always to your neighbors advantage
Never give a thought to what others owe you, but what you owe them
Do good things to others, as you should like them done to you
Be actively compassionate in times of suffering
Be quick to offer consolation, counsel, assistance and kindness
Share your goods
Pray for everyone."
Written by Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski, a Polish priest who was imprisoned and suffered at the hands of the Polish Communists
I'm told your brother is the hardest to love, because he's in your room, leaving his laundry all over the place, taking your fan, and reeking of an unfashionable body-wash fragrance.
(My teenagers have been having a sub-primate territorial dispute worthy of black bears in the mating season.)
When the victims of persecution speak, that gets extra attention from me!
Who's on first?
Sheesh, there is NO pinning down what Catholicism teaches.
First they're infallible, except when they're not.
Then it's only what's taught ex cathedra, except when it's not.
Then the Church wrote the Bible and uses it to give itself authority, but Tradition supersedes it.
They've raised hair splitting to the finest art on earth.
The Pharisees were amateurs compared to the Catholic church.
I suspect you mean Moses since I seriously doubt anyone heard anything from God the Father for a great long while.
The Jews in Jesus' time also had the same issue, in questioning the authority and authenticity (if you will) of the Messiah's message. Some of them believed. Many did not citing the very reason you're citing.
The Messiah asked a very strange but interesting discussion to the Jews of His day who actually believed in Him:
Joh 8:32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
Joh 8:33 They answered him, "We are offspring of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you say, 'You will become free'?"
Joh 8:34 Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin.
Joh 8:35 The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever.
Joh 8:36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
Joh 8:37 I know that you are offspring of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me because my word finds no place in you.
Joh 8:38 I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard from your father."
Joh 8:39 They answered him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would be doing the works Abraham did,
Joh 8:40 but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did.
Joh 8:41 You are doing the works your father did." They said to him, "We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Fathereven God."
Joh 8:42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and I am here. I came not of my own accord, but he sent me.
Joh 8:43 Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot bear to hear my word.
Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Joh 8:45 But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.
If you want authenticity you need only look into your own human heart. Only the Son can set one free.
This is the dilemma of Catholics who are actually more interested in the truth. If they truly examine Catholic teaching, and not try to gloss over the inconsistencies, it is clear that there have been significant changes to doctrine and positions. Ebb Tide is right. The Catholic Church is heading to universalism.
Yep, a one world religion. Its easy to watch that happen in the RCC. The whole thing about not needing to know Christ for salvation is telling. Why they even include the Muslims.
# 841 The Churchs relationship with the Muslims. The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankinds judge on the last day.[330]
Look at this statement from Mother Teresa.
"If in coming face to face with God we accept Him in our lives, then we are converting. We become a better Hindu, a better Muslim, a better Catholic, a better whatever we are. ... What God is in your mind you must accept" (from Mother Teresa: Her People and Her Work , by Desmond Doig, p. 156, as quoted by Dave Hunt, Global Peace and the Rise of Antichrist , p. 149).
Its not difficult at all to see how ready they are to incorporate all beliefs.
Whos on first?
Jesus Christ Our Lord. Sheesh, there is NO pinning down what Catholicism teaches.
..And NOW with Pinnability: the online searchable edition of the CATHOLIC CATECHISM!! First theyre infallible, except when theyre not.
Not quite kosher to disdain Catholicism for its allegedly unlimited claim of infallibility, and then disdain it because it's, in fact, sharply limited. Then its only whats taught ex cathedra, except when its not.
A statement which impresses only those who don't know jack chick about the Catechism. Then the Church wrote the Bible and uses it to give itself authority, but Tradition supersedes it.
A statement which impresses only those who don't know that Scripture is Tradition, the Written Tradition, and can't be "superceded" by it. Theyve raised hair splitting to the finest art on earth.
Hey!! You talkin' about my split ends???! The Pharisees were amateurs compared to the Catholic church.
History bit: The Pharisees were the forerunner of Rabbinical Judaism. The Apostles and their co-workers for the Gospel --- the episcopoi, presbyteroi, and diakonoi --- were the forerunners of Catholicism. I'll be back soon! Study Hard!
Romans 11:1-6 I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! For I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin. God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he appeals to God against Israel? Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have demolished your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life. But what is God's reply to him? I have kept for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal. So too at the present time there is a remnant, chosen by grace. But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace.
Romans 11:25-32 Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers: a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written,
The Deliverer will come from Zion, he will banish ungodliness from Jacob; and this will be my covenant with them when I take away their sins.
As regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But as regards election, they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers. For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. For just as you were at one time disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience, so they too have now been disobedient in order that by the mercy shown to you they also may now receive mercy. For God has consigned all to disobedience, that he may have mercy on all.
God is not done with Israel. He does NOT break His promises.
Well, it really kinda depends on which Catholic you're talking to at the moment what you're told about what the Catholic church believes and teaches.
I think you are all misreading, or deliberately misinterpreting, what I said.
It's not as if God made a Covenant with the Jews, and then along came Jesus a couple of thousand years later and everything changed. Jesus was there from the beginning, at the Creation and before, as the Second Person of the Trinity. He and the Holy Spirit were part of the deal God made with the Jews, although the Jews didn't realize it.
Of course, Jesus invited and invites all Jews to become Christians. In the early days of the Church, it was thought that the Jews would fade away. But they haven't, not for two thousand years. Christianity was the fulfillment of Jewish prophecy, but it did not SUPERSEDE or REPLACE Judaism, evidently, since the Jews are still with us.
That is a mystery. But God does not force anyone to convert; He invites them.
Pope Francis was being friendly with the Rabbi of Rome. For God's own reasons, there are still faithful Jews who observe the Old Covenant. And God declared repeatedly that that Covenant was "eternal," or "forever" (depending on the translation).
Pope Francis would welcome the Rabbi to the Church, and the Rabbi knows that. But he isn't going to rudely proselytize him at a friendly meeting, still less tell him that he is damned unless he converts—which isn't true.
According to Catholic teaching, no one can be saved without the grace of Jesus. But that grace can be channeled to virtuous pagans or to faithful Jews.
If I were a Jew and thought as I do, then I would certainly convert—as I once converted from Episcopal to Catholic. But I do not argue that all Jews are damned unless they go to some Evangelical church or tent and loudly declare that they have found Christ.

Works exactly the way I wanted it. Fairly easy to setup. Easy to clean up compared to frying in an open skillet and having to clean the entire work space. Really nice feature, being able to put the food in the basket and closing the lid prior to lowering the basket into the oil, totally eliminates the danger of hot oil burns. Very happy with my purchase.
I like this pot very much. I've used it on the crock pot temps., and thouroughly enjoyed the end product. I especially like that it can be used as a warmer, and at full temp. for quick meals. My son likes it for his deep fry hot wings. You never let us down O.
I love deep fry good and I have several deep fryers over the years. This deep fryer cooks food fast and crisp. The instructions that come with the unit are easy to read and understand. They explain the operation of the unit thoroughly. I like it.
this product works well as a deep fryer but it gets too hot to work as a slow cooker even under the low heat settings. the concept of a deep fryer/slow cooker is a good one but it does not work as designed in this product. definitely not work the money paid.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? it matches
Very poor quality and design would not recommened to anyone . the returh was very easy with overstock that was not a problem
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. very poor
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? not good
I ignored the negative reviews, thinking the reviewers just didn't use the cooker right or something. When the cooker arrived, it looked nice but was alarmingly lightweight. It also had a funny chemical odor. The instructions were also horribly spelled and grammatically incorrect (always a great sign).It has a dial, but for practical purposes it had two levels: off and scalding. There was no "slow cooking" about it, and the hotter it got, the more prominent that chemical stench became. I tried to make meatballs for a party, and on the lowest setting the edges were scorched black in minutes. I next tried to cook wings with the deep fryer function. After five minutes, the cooker just died completely. Now the light comes on but the cooker doesn't produce any heat.That's what I got from this thing--two poor uses before it konked out, and now I have to deal with returning it (which Overstock requires you to do at your own cost, mind you!).Also note the cheap vinyl liner is not removable, so in order to clean it you have to put the entire thing in the sink (while trying not to get any other parts wet). There is also a warning sticker on the front that says "PLS! NO TOUCH HOT SURFACE."Pony up the extra $20 and get a name brand. This thing belongs in the junk pile.
I purchased this for my daughter. She really loves it and is especially thrilled with the thermostat feature. she has used it for both deep fat frying and slow cooking. She says the clean up is pretty easy too.
I have used it quite a few times since I purchased it a month ago. The product information booklet is informative. I enjoy using it as a deep fryer. It heats up realtively quickly compared with my old fryer. It is extremely versatile. I also tried to make stew out of this and it worked, but there's no timer function, so you really need to set the temperature really low and keep an eye on it.
The high tempurature setting is good for bringing the contents up to temp fast, just don't leave it there much over one hour! I like how it looks and how it performs. It has a glass lid, so that I could see the contents inside while it's cooking. I''ve only used it a few times, but so far it has far exceeded my expectations!
Overall this is a poor/fair deep fryer. The basket fits to the handle separately so it constantly comes apart, which always seems to be when I am trying to take the food out of the oil, which causes (dangerous) splashing. It uses a LOT of oil to fill it, which I thought the large capacity would be a plus. However the round basket makes it awkward to cook things like corn dogs or fried chicken breast which are longer than the container. Also, the oil is very hard to strain out of the machine so I can re-use the oil. I don't use it as a "multi-cooker", but I don't think it would be really that great for multi-use, either. The quality is quite poor and the brand was some off brand that wasn't sold in any department stores or anything. Usually I am very satisfied with my Overstock purchases, but this seems to be the exception.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Accurate
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Poor/Fair
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Somewhat accurate
I purchased this item and could not use it more than once, due to inner lining totally chipping off in to the food, I have been very happy with all other items purchased from Overstock, but this item was terrible.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Very poor
I was happy at first. But mine quit working after 4 or 5 uses. I believe it is electrical problem
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? yes
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. not good
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? good
I bought this as a gift for my dad who wanted a fryer that he could use as a crock pot. He said it works great as a crock pot but it doesn't get hot enough to fry! This defeats the whole purpose of having a two-in-one product.... this is really just a slow cooker. Very disappointing!
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? yes
- How is the quality of the product? fine
- Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? yes
Looked good online. I purchased it and it stopped working after 5 uses...enough said.
I used this product once to cook a chicken. The non-stick coating came off in the bottom and I didn't see it until the gravy was made and eaten.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Correct
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Poor
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Fair
I was tired of the big, messy deep fryers. This one, I think, is on the expensive side for it's size. However, I love how easy it is to clean. I don't mind dumping out the oil and cleaning it. It fries wonderfully, I have not used it as a crockpot and doubt if I ever will.
It's always great when you find a product with dual use. I don't cook a lot of fried foods, so I didn't own a fryer. However, when I saw this fryer that doubled as a slow cooker, I couldn't pass it up. Pleased with the price. This appliance makes life in the kitchen a lot quicker and easier.
The reason I only gave a 3 stars rating is the cord that connects to the Deep Fryer is magnetically held to the pot and it you accidentally move the pot it comes unattached. Otherwise a good bargain to get a slow cooker and a deep fryer.
i've only used this as a crock pot so far, but i have no complaints yet. works fine, looks good.good value for the price.
I bought this as a birthday gift for my sister and she loves it. Of course she used it the same day it came in. It's a good size deep fryer. She said it's easy to use and it works great.
