Windows (x32): http://coinmagi.org/bin/m-wall...
Windows (x64): http://coinmagi.org/bin/m-wall...Linux: http://coinmagi.org/bin/m-wall...
Mac OS X: http://coinmagi.org/bin/m-wall...
FreeBSD: http://coinmagi.org/bin/m-wall...Block chain: http://coinmagi.org/bin/block-...
Release notes: http://coinmagi.org/bin/releas...Multiple Platforms:
* Starting from v1.3.1, we provide official support of building packages for FreeBSD; both Qt wallet and daemon are available. Supports to other platforms may also occur in future release;
* Struggled with a working Qt wallet for Windows XP (daemon works); this effort is yet to be done. Since Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft, I'm considering to drop off the compilation; please let me if one does need a Qt wallet for Windows XP.Changelog:
This is a major release designed to improve the overall performance of the wallet. Upgrading to this version is strongly recommended. All parties upgrading from versions prior to v1.3.0 should resynchronize the complete block chain from the beginning.A copy of block chain available:http://coinmagi.org/bin/block-...
- Support of building Qt wallet and daemon on FreeBSD;
- Added "Mint" menu on the Qt wallet;
- Added "About" menu on the Qt wallet;
- Fixed price update for all of OS including Windows;
- Corrected the total amount on the transaction page;
- Overall improvement of the Qt wallet appearance;
- Removed pre-release message from the status bar;
- Redesigned the icon set; new logo available here:http://coinmagi.org/files/logo/v1;http://coinmagi.org/files/logo/v2;(January 29, 2017)
This release also contains the prior changes associated with v1.3.0rc1 which wasn't made publicly.
- Changed database for storing transaction and block indices from Berkeley DB to LevelDB;
- Enabled block hash storing in storage and loaded directly from disk;
- Fixed "Checkpoint is too old" warning;
- PoS stake splitting and combining features, which can be set by stakesplitthreshold=VALUE and stakecombinethreshold VALUE in magi.conf, or by RPC commands: setstakesplitthreshold and setstakecombinethreshold; RPC commands getstakesplitthreshold and getstakecombinethreshold to show their current values;
- Added price information on Qt overviewpage;
- Qt wallet logo change and GUI improvements;
- Merge pull request of adding total balance in "Transactions" page by lightsplasher;
- Merge pull request of version check updates by feldenthorne; fixed automatic version check including test/rc versions.(June 22, 2016)
* Since v1.3.1 migrates to leveldb for block index storing, for upgrading from a version before v1.3 should reset the local block-chain;
* For users on Windows, we provide a convenient way to use an installer for upgrading wallet and migrating to the latest block chain; this is strongly recommended;
* Additional note to the stake splitting & combing for information; https://github.com/magi-projec...
// The original design prevents stakes having the same parent transaction from combining
// which somehow reads as encouraging splitting (improve security);
// This mechanism is to be disabled in Magi since combining won't cause security concern/* Splitting is only enforced at wallet, not by PoS protocol as well as consensus over network.
* Original PPCoin design encourages splitting as per "Lower coinstake combine threshold to
* improve security", which can be understood by the fact that in general PoS, with a large
* number of coins in stake comes greater chance of (PoS) mining blocks. This is not going to
* happen in Magi. Also, hardening nStakeCombineThreshold is impractical since an advanced user
* can easilly make a change to that and rebuild a wallet. The change to nStakeCombineThreshold
* should be available externally, e.g., RPC command, magi.conf configuration file.
** Magi, for optimum staking, nStakeCombineThreshold should be used in combination with nStakeSplitThreshold.*/nStakeCombineThreshold along with nStakeSplitThreshold should be utilized for best results. The optimum threshold is neither a random number nor as large as possible; it's in accordance with the magi's PoS (mPoS) protocol.
Upgrading procedure:
- In general:
1) Backup wallet.dat;
2) Delete everything under the Magi or .magi folder except wallet.dat;
3) Download block chain from herehttp://coinmagi.org/bin/block-... and unzip the file;
4) Put all of the contents under the folder m-blockchain into Magi or .magi;
5) Launch the new wallet.- Windows:
1) Backup wallet.dat;
2) Launch the installer;
3) Choose the option you want to migrate the block-chain; the installer will always move the original Magi folder to something like Magi-BACKUP-*;
4) Follow on-screen prompts to install.

I have had incredible luck with goldfish............I'm talking years and years. My "secrets" - I've always started with a goldfish won at a fair or carnival ping pong ball toss...don't ask me why but they are tough carny fish. Always get the drops that take the chlorine and chemicals out of the water, feed tiny bits at a time, not too much..that kills them quickly. The one I have now is ummmmm 3 years next carnival season. Good Luck! He'll be much happier in one of these flashy new digs....

New boots!
Well, okay ... they're not really new, but they're new to me. I don't normally buy shoes when I go to the Salvation Army thrift store. For some reason, that has always creeped me out a little. However, these boots were just too good to pass up. I couldn't find a size on them anywhere. All the inside said was Zodiac USA. So, very reluctantly, I stuck my foot in to see if they'd fit. I mean -- really -- what was the chance they'd actually fit. You know what I mean? It turned out they were exactly my size. Dang.
I'm a big lover of cowboy boots and have quite a few pairs already. They're not cheap, by any means. I don't go for the super expensive ones, even though I post pictures of those on Facebook all the time. Most of mine cost less than $200, which is still A LOT to me. So, when I saw these boots for TEN DOLLARS and realized they actually FIT, I snagged them. For me to buy something at a thirft store for ten dollars says a lot. I usually come home with a huge bag filled with stuff for that much. The soles are practically untouched, so I'm guessing they weren't worn much, if at all.
I've looked online all over the place trying to find information about Zodiac USA boots. Not much is out there. Most of the boots that come up are listed as vintage. I did find a Facebook page that said the company began in the 1960s out of Venice, California and that the boots were often worn by celebrities, rock stars, and so forth. They sell newer footwear, apparently, but I can't find any links that show this particular boot. I left a message on their Facebook page, so maybe they can tell me when they came out or how much they cost new. For all I know, they could be a cheap, newer boot and not worth much. That's okay. I needed this shade of brown anyway.
3 comments:
So far, the Zodiac USA Facebook page hasn't gotten any information on them, but did repost my picture and called them "vintage" boots. Maybe someone will know when they came out and how much they were retail. They certainly don't look super old, but since they were worn so little, it's hard to tell.
ReplyDeleteThose have a really unique shape to the top. I like 'em! I've bought a couple of pairs of shoes from Goodwill/SA, but never had a lot of success - My feet always seem to wear shoes differently than the person before, regardless of how new they look. I do buy a lot of work pants and all of my furniture there... Broke and cheap! hahah

Constructor: David Steinberg
Relative difficulty: Challenging
Note: "After this puzzle was created, the constructor did something to 11 squares - as suggested by a two-word reading of 63-Across before alteration."
Certain squares are blank. Solvers are given no initial clue as to which squares these are, or that blank squares are even in play. It's not until you get to 63A: Moderates (E-ASE-S) that, using the "Note" provided, you can infer that the "two-word reading of 63-Across before alteration" is ERASE Rs. So: a hypothetical original grid has its Rs erased, giving us an R-less grid, which is clued (without any indication that the grid is going to have holes where the Rs were). The real feat here is that the "original" grid and the R-less one both make sense, i.e. with or without Rs, there are coherent words/phrases in the grid.
Word of the Day: Al COHN (47A: Saxophonist Al) —
Al Cohn (November 24, 1925 – February 15, 1988)[1] was an American jazz saxophonist, arranger and composer. He came to prominence in the band of clarinetist Woody Herman and was known for his longtime musical partnership with fellow saxophonist Zoot Sims. (wikipeidia)
So … it's January, the time when I make my annual week-long pitch for financial contributions to this blog. Actually, I didn't make the pitch last year. I used last January to raise money for other causes instead (and it was my pleasure to do so). But this year I once again ask you (especially you regular readers) to consider what the blog is worth to you on an annual basis and give accordingly. As I've said before, as much as I love writing this blog, I treat it like a job— answers and commentary go up every day, without fail, usually at 12:01 am, but certainly by 9am at the very latest. This has been true for seven straight years. I know that some people are opposed to paying for what they can get for free, and still others really don't have money to spare. Both kinds of people are welcome to continue reading my blog, with my compliments. It will always be free. I have no interest in cordoning it off, nor do I have any interest in taking advertising. I value my independence too much. Anyway, if you are so moved, there is a Paypal button in the sidebar, and a mailing address here:
Rex Parker
℅ Michael Sharp
54 Matthews St
Binghamton NY 13905
Maybe I'll stick a PayPal button in here for the mobile users. Let's see...
For people who send me actual honest-to-god (i.e. "snail") mail, I have this great new set of thank-you postcards that I'm hoping to burn through: "the iconic Pantone color chip design in 100 brilliant colors." Who will be the lucky person who gets … let's see … Pantone 19-2025: Red Plum? Ooooh, elegant. It could be you. Or give via PayPal and get a thank-you email. That's cool too. Anyway, whatever you choose to do, I remain most grateful for your readership. Now on to the puzzle …
Update: I got my first snail-mail donation —look at the cuteness:
This is really quite clever, though I suspect many will have found less than enjoyable to solve (given that it was twice as hard as a typical Thursday and the "note" accompanying the puzzle was less than clear). Completely filled in, this thing is a rather dull themeless. But the ERASE R'S gimmick makes it a perilous adventure. Quality of fill still matters—and the fill here is definitely solid—but the enjoyment here is in the find-the-blanks challenge, not in the "wow" of the fill or the revelation of clever theme answers. The puzzle produces a very delayed gratification—you have to imagine a grid that's not actually (all) in order to appreciate what was done to it. In fact, you have to infer the revealer, ERASE R'S, from a. the empty squares in your grid and b. the note, which tells you that there is a "two-word reading of 63-Across before alteration." This means you have to look at E-ASE-S and figure out how the pre-altered version looked. Blank squares throughout the grid should put the concept of erasure in your head, so I don't think it's that hard to get to "ERASERS" from E-ASE-S. Still, even knowing the gimmick helps you only slightly, since none of the pre-altered (R-containing) words are clued as such. Only the altered (R-less) versions are clued, so you have to get those answers and then determine where the blanks are based on where an "R" *could* go to make a plausible word / phrase. But you can use that "R" logic only after you've picked up the ERASE Rs gimmick. Before that, god help you. There's no real way to know where blanks are going to go except by feel.
I first began to pick up on the missing letter thing with A T-EST. I had the -EST part and knew it had to be H- or A-TEST but … too many squares. Same thing for SAGE. I didn't fully get the missing letter thing, though, until I had inferred enough of [Kind of ray] to know that it *had* to be GAMMA (or G-AMMA-). That let me put in SA-GE, and then … well then at least I sort of knew what was up. Blank squares. Randomly placed. Not until much later did I get the revealer and see that if you filled those blanks with Rs, they made plausible answers (to the imagined, "original," not-clued-here grid).
Just talking about this puzzle is making my head hurt. Easy to grasp through experience than through description. I am most grateful that the fill was totally inoffensive. I don't love "I AM A" (54D: "___Rock"), but it's an outlier, badness-wise, and it also helped me change ANEMONE to ABALONE (one of my bigger post-getting-the-theme hold-ups) (58A: Awabi, at a sushi bar). I finished in the NW and was, briefly, afraid I wasn't actually going to get into that corner. Finally grokked CEDILLA from -ILLA (had wanted MANILLA…) (1A: Letter attachment?) and that was that. Ended with the "Y" in EYEBOLT (24D: Fastener with a ring-shaped head). Now I have to go rest my eye pits.

One might quibble over the inclusion of one or two books here (that is the joy, and purpose, of lists), and it is important to remember that this is a list for investors (a list for traders would inevitably look rather different), but overall most would probably agree that this is a fine list.
It is interesting to see the distribution of publication dates of the recommended books. Only three were first published in this century. And, of those, the most recently published book is not focused on investing, while the one before that is about a chap who started investing in the 1940s.
The median year for the 15 books is 1995, but the mean year of publication (OK, a rather silly calculation in this context but why not?) is 1980.
The following chart shows the year of first publication of the 15 books mapped onto the Dow Jones Industrial Average (log scale).
On this chart it can be seen that the publication dates of six of the books are clustered around the end of the twenty-year bull market that started in 1980. Perhaps bull markets give authors the confidence to write books, or investors the appetite to read them. Certainly few classic books would appear to have been written in recent years.
But also, as it is often said, the essential lessons of investing change little over time.

Here's how bad the noise was inside Mall of America field Sunday: On the Lions' third play from scrimmage, Vikings defensive end Jared Allen hit quarterback Matthew Stafford almost before left tackle Jeff Backus came out of his stance.
The reason — center Dominic Raiola snapped the ball on the wrong count.
"That wasn't anything but communication," Raiola said. "It was supposed to be a dummy count, and I didn't get it."
So while the rest of the offensive line waited for the right snap count to be called, the Vikings were barreling in and delivering the first sack of the year on Stafford. They got him five times — all from defensive ends who were beating Backus (twice), or Gosder Cherilus (once) or Corey Hilliard (twice).
"This is a very difficult place to play," coach Jim Schwartz said. "It's one of the loudest stadiums in the NFL, and the fans should be commended. It affected it early and in the fourth quarter. We put ourselves in a hole there."

Where To Watch
Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
Just as adept with suspense as slapstick humor, it's both a piss-take of action dramas and a strong action drama in its own right.
I expected to be tired of the joke behind The Wrong Mans within an episode or two. Instead, I found myself engrossed enough in the story of who wanted Sam dead at any particular moment, and why, to keep watching until I made it all the way to the end and could appreciate just how well Baynton, Corden and company stuck the landing.
The many tones should produce whiplash, but the series works because it's always able to go back to its central idea of a lower-level government employee living in a sleepy small town and getting wrapped up in something bigger than he would ever have anticipated.
Mostly, though, The Wrong Mans coasts along on the strength of Mr. Corden, Mr. Baynton and Tom Basden's sneaky-funny writing ("You know what danger doesn't do? Call ahead. Unless it's the I.R.A.") and the pleasure of watching Mr. Corden timidly but delightedly snorting drugs at a mobster's party or trying to blend in with a group of svelte dancers.
The goings-on feel fresh in the way that kids at play make spy or space stories their own, even as they repeat what TV and the movies have taught them. This is just that with a budget, some deeper experience and the help of Jennifer Saunders, Rebecca Front, Dougray Scott and David Harewood, among interesting others.
Corden and Baynton bring considerable charm to their broadly drawn roles, and have the natural rapport necessary for any odd couple pairing.... Production values are solid, and film and TV director Jim Field Smith opts for a classic style that foregrounds both the action and comedy without any stylistic fuss.
A slight, bright, British caper. [16 Dec 2013]
The ambitious series finds a nice balance of slapstick and suspense. You might feel cheated if you're expecting the usual setup and joke, setup and joke format of many American sitcoms, but there are plenty of surprises and laughs.

The Los Angeles Police Department rolled out its "zero-tolerance" measures for Thursday's home Dodger game, as an answer to the brutal beating of northern California paramedic Bryan Stow at the home opener.
Officers will be more aggressive about expelling people; and the stadium canceled its plan to sell half-priced beverages.
The Dodgers plan to create a computer mapping and crime tracking system for the stadium similar to the one the LAPD has used for years to scrutinize crime patterns and hot spots throughout Los Angeles, reports the Los Angeles Times.

We've been working at out gardening a few years now and we can never resist turning our lives upside down to focus our efforts on a garden each year. We just get so much joy out of our labor.
Every day Elijah is bringing in to me something else that is ripe and ready! We're sad that sugar snap pea time is over....everyone loves when those are ripe! We ate a ton of those earlier in the season...
We've tried making some lacto fermented pickles...ones with a salt brine instead of vinegar...they will actually have good bacteria and be super good for you! They've been sitting for almost two weeks and will be ready to eat tomorrow :).
I also made some regular vinegar brine pickles as an alternative incase not everyone likes the lacto fermented ones...
Needed to use up the cucumbers!
We finally have lots of watermelons growing this year as well...Elijah always wants to grow watermelons but last year the heavy rains rotted what did start growing. This year we've been very careful to keep the melons up and dry and they are doing great!
We've also decided we really can't eat nine 30 pound watermelons on our own so we're hoping to have a little "end of the summer" pool and watermelon eating party just as soon as I'm recovered from having our newest little one. The kids are looking forward to it!

A modem was considered screamingly fast in the mid 80's if it was 1200 baud. Bought up by Warez Kings, porn (prOn?) freaks, and FIDOboard masters of the 80's en masse, 1200's could download your favorite massive (1 meg at the time) game within the hour! Quite a step up from the 300 bauds preceeding them, their pricing was quite reasonable at the time; roughly $99 for a quality brand. (Hayes, Practical Peripherals, and a few other brands dominated the market. Incidentally, it was quite sad to see Hayes go out of business a few years ago, after all their pioneering work they did in the modem field). 1200's were slowly pushed out by even faster 2400 baud modems shortly thereafter. Internal models were generally preferred, but many hardcore geeks of the time preferred external versions, regardless of the $20-30 additional cost -- purely to show off their hardware. Find someone who can remember what v.32 bis, v.42 bis, or MNP-5 is, and you'll have found someone who is able to tell you all about those good ol' glory days.

1 Corinthians 3New King James Version (NKJV)Sectarianism Is Carnal3 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. 2 I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; 3 for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men? 4 For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not carnal? Watering, Working, Warning5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one? 6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. 8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor. 9 For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, you are God's building. 10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. 11 For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13 each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is. 14 If anyone's work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. 15 If anyone's work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire. 16 Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? 17 If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are. Avoid Worldly Wisdom18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, "He catches the wise in their own craftiness"; [a] 20 and again, "The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile."[b] 21 Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours: 22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come—all are yours. 23 And you are Christ's, and Christ is God's.

The messages were just a bit mixed from Jose Bautista on Sunday.
Running for the first time in four days testing his sore hamstring, the Blue Jays outfielder later proclaimed himself available to pinch hit in Sunday's game against the Chicago White Sox if he was called upon by manager John Gibbons.
But Bautista also said that his right hamstring still felt a bit sore after the exercise, which cannot be a good sign.
"I'm feeling ok," Bautista said. "I ran at about 50-60 percent and it was a little sore which is normal, but it didn't feel weak, I didn't feel like I was going to pull it.
"I hit in the cage and that felt pretty close to 100 percent so I talked to Gibby and because of the way that I feel, I am available to pinch hit today and we'll take it from there. See how I feel Tuesday.
The Blue Jays have an off day on Monday before beginning a two-game set against the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday.
Bautista said the plan is for him to try to avoid the disabled list if at all possible. He hasn't played all week after injuring his hamstring last weekend in Cincinnati.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
shares this morning rallied after separate reports detailed changes in the tech giant's strategies, including a possible corporate restructuring and lowered prices on its tablet computers.
Hoping to create a more streamlined operation, CEO Steve Ballmer is mulling a way to reorganize Microsoft around "devices and services," a term Ballmer used in his annual shareholder letter last October. Microsoft today is considerably more convoluted, with businesses structured around Microsoft Office, Online Services and Business Solutions. Any changes could force a shake-up in the company's top ranks.
Investors weighed the news favorably, sending shares up 0.4% in pre-market trading. Shares of Microsoft have been pressured lately as investors criticized Microsoft's direction. The stock is up 35.3% in three years, while the S&P 500 gained 53.1%. A great deal of the unhappiness focused on whether Ballmer was the right person to lead the company into the new age of tablets and cloud computing. Hence, Ballmer's pledge to transform in the last shareholder letter: "This is a significant shift, both in what we do and how we see ourselves — as a devices and services company. It impacts how we run the company, how we develop new experiences, and how we take products to market for both consumers and businesses." The move toward centering the $291 billion company on devices and services will likely involve changes both to its enterprise and consumer businesses.
Meantime, Microsoft's decision to cut tablet prices also highlights the company's struggles. Microsoft launched its Surface tablets a year ago to compete with 's iPad and 's Kindle, but the devices have been a resounding disappointment. They control less than 1% of the $64 billion market, according to IDC, as the iPad, with 40% of the market, continues to remain the gadget of choice.
Microsoft's difficulty breaking into the tablet market mirror the situations encountered by other aging tech firms like Dell and BlackBerry. Dell made unsuccessful bids to enter the space with its XPS tablets. And following the dismal sales of BlackBerry's PlayBook tablet, CEO Thorsten Heinz attempted last month to dismiss the growing importance of tablets , "In five years I don't think there'll be a reason to have a tablet anymore...Tablets themselves are not a good business model."

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2008
About the owner: As I financial planner residing in Pennsylvania, I get tired of the long dreary winters. When touring the Dominican Republic, I fell in love with the Samana peninsula. We try to visit a few times per year, and we enjoy sharing the beauty of the island with other vacationers when we are not there.
Why the Owner Chose Dominican Republic:
I bought this property, because I got tired of the same old thing. I wanted to do something different everyday, and enjoy nature. I found this place after a tour of the whole island, and when I saw the view of the ocean, and enjoyed a dip in the infinity pool, I knew that I had to make this happen.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment:
Here you have the privacy and tranquility of a small beach, but if you drive a few miles, you can enjoy some of the larger beaches like Rincon or El Valle. All of the beaches here at the tip of the Samana peninsula are mostly undeveloped. You can enjoy a true Dominican meal at one of the rustic outdoor restaurants or bring your own cooler with some food and cold Dominican rum and Coke!

Some Blogger blog owners don't know how to setup a sitemap, for their blog.
Setting up the sitemap, for a website, is a major process - and takes time. Every time you add a page to a website, the sitemap has to be updated - or how do your readers find the new page?
Alternatively, you can use a sitemap builder service, which builds the sitemap. This gives you a file, hosted by the sitemap builder service. Will the sitemap builder service be in business next week?
In either case, you take your sitemap file, and upload it to the blog. Every time you add a page, you update the sitemap, then you upload the updated sitemap. Every time - or the new page remains unindexed, until you do.
(Update 2014/11/04): Blogger is now providing an automatically generated, dedicated sitemap, to replace the newsfeed sourced sitemap - and an automatic "robots.txt" update. There is no need for a custom sitemap - nor to update "robots.txt".
With a Blogger blog, you designate the sitemap, using Google Webmaster Tools, referencing the URL of the posts newsfeed.
You can substitute any custom sitemap, if you wish, but this will be at your own risk - and you can develop your own installation instructions.
Once done with the Webmaster Tools sitemap wizard, you are free to work on the visible parts of the blog. Every time you publish a new post, the post is updated into the newsfeed, and becomes part of the sitemap.
The next time a search engine bot hits the blog, it picks up the new sitemap - and indexes the new post.
Combine the automatically and immediately updated sitemap, with more time spent updating the blog, and you get happier readers, and better search engine reputation. That's a win - win.
If your blog gets very large, you can add a new sitemap segment - at your convenience - for every 500 posts.
Why spend time manually updating a sitemap, with every new post (and worry about a file, hosted by someone who may or may not stay in business)? Use the posts newsfeed (hosted by Google), and work on the blog content.
An Important Update

Persuasive Pro-Life: How to Talk About Our Culture's Toughest Issue
Are you scared to talk about abortion?
Don't worry—almost everyone is. Either we think the subject is too impolite, or we don't want to be branded an intolerant fanatic, or we're afraid we won't represent the pro-life side well enough. Whatever the reason for this fear, it causes many of us pass up opportunities to speak out on behalf of the unborn.
You can overcome this fear, says Trent Horn in his groundbreaking book Persuasive Pro-Life. With a little knowledge and a few proven techniques, you can become a bold and effective apologist for life.
Drawing on over a decade as a pro-life organizer, Horn helps you cut through the diversions and obfuscations of the "pro-choice" side in order to accurately frame the legal, historical, and medical issue surrounding abortion. Then he demonstrates—with vivid personal examples from his years of campus activism—the importance of being charitable in all abortion debates, no matter how strident the other side might be. We must be not just warriors for the pro-life cause, he says, but ambassadors for it.
Then Horn leads you a guided tour of the many types of pro-abortion opponent or inquirer ("the pragmatist," "the skeptic," "the conflicted") along with more real-life examples. In each case he teaches you specific approaches—what to say, what not to say, and how to bear yourself—that are custom-tailored to every situation.
The struggle over abortion has never been hotter, and the stakes could not be higher.
Read Persuasive Pro-Life today and never again be afraid to speak up for the precious and fundamental right to life.
"Trent Horn really knows how to get people thinking and talking about abortion. Persuasive Pro-Life is an invaluable handbook for anyone who wants to become more skilled at defending the humanity of the preborn."—Lila Rose, President, Live Action
"I am so grateful for this book! It brilliantly combines reason and compassion in order to build up a culture of life." —Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life
"To change hearts and minds on abortion, it's not enough to be passionately pro-life. You also have to be intelligently pro-life, and that means knowing who you're talking to and how to reach them. Trent Horn shares over a decade of experience on the front lines of the abortion debate, teaching pro-lifers how approach the discussion with confidence, charity, and effectiveness." —Eric Scheidler, Executive director, Pro-life Action League

A leading pan-African multilateral development finance institution and project developer, Africa Finance Corporation (AFC), has issued its maiden Sukuk – which the highest-rated Sukuk issuance from an African institution. After attracting high levels of investor interest, the initial target of 100 million USD was more than twice oversubscribed, resulting in the transaction being upsized to 150 million USD and a final order book of approximately 230 million USD. The transaction represents the first Sukuk to be issued by an African supranational entity, and also the first Sukuk transaction in 2017.

Kind Hearts Library
Help us bring the gift of literacy to children around the world.
Why |'präməs|?
Experiences of poverty happen everyday in America; in our own communities, some of us even experiencing poverty in our own home. Working with children in poverty, I thought I had seen the worst. That was until, I came to know the children of Ethiopia. While in Ethiopia, we were blessed to visit a 'school'. The school was a safe haven, a place to be fed, loved, and taught. However, this school had no running water, no bathroom facilities, no kitchen, and NO books! Even without the amenities of a school as we know it, these children were proud to be there and grateful for the opportunity. As we toured the property, we discussed with the director, the group's plan to provide them with clean water and other basic needs. At every plead that the director made for our support, we assured him that God had a plan in our heart and we intended to carry it out, to which he always responded, "You promise?"
So as Robert Frost said, "I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep."

Created for a Star Wars book proposal, this was the first in a series of stitches made for the book, however wasn't selected. Its one of two parts for both light and dark sides of the force. The two pieces are reminiscent of cold war era art deco posters, and are made to both face each other as if they are about to fight. You can find the other one here.

Extraordinary minister of Holy Communion
An extraordinary minister of Holy Communion in the Catholic Church is, under the Code of Canon Law, "an acolyte, or another of Christ's faithful deputed", in certain circumstances, to distribute Holy Communion. The term "extraordinary" distinguishes such a person from the ordinary (normal, regular) minister of Holy Communion, namely a bishop, priest or deacon.[1]
Canon law permits that "[w]here the needs of the Church require and ministers are not available, lay people, even though they are not lectors or acolytes, can supply certain of their functions, that is, exercise the ministry of the word, preside over liturgical prayers, confer baptism and distribute Holy Communion, in accordance with the provisions of the law."[2] The term "lay people" does not distinguish between men and women.
The extraordinary minister's function is to distribute Holy Communion, either within Mass or by taking it to a sick person, when an ordained minister (bishop, priest or deacon) is absent or impeded.[3]
In order to avoid confusion about this function, an extraordinary minister of Holy Communion is not to be called a "special minister of Holy Communion", nor an "extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist", nor a "special minister of the Eucharist".[4]
Ten years before publication of the present Code of Canon Law, some of these expressions were used in the instruction of the Sacred Congregation of the Sacraments Immensae caritatis of 29 January 1973. They are now reprobated.
The only minister of the Eucharist is the priest.[5]
An instituted acolyte is an extraordinary minister of Holy Communion by virtue of his institution.[6] Such acolytes are in practice seminarians or former seminarians, or those in deacon formation, although canon law allows the ministry to be conferred on any lay men ("viri laici") who have the age and qualifications that the episcopal conference is to lay down.[7][8][9] The local bishop, pastor, or priest celebrant may delegate other lay Catholics for the function of extraordinary minister of Holy Communion either for a single occasion or for a specified period of time, if there are reasons of real necessity. The commissioning need not take a liturgical form, but an appropriate blessing, which should in no way resemble ordination, may be imparted. In special cases of an unforeseen nature, the priest celebrating Mass may grant permission for a single occasion.[6]
Extraordinary, not ordinary[edit]
"If there is usually present a sufficient number of sacred ministers for the distribution of Holy Communion, extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion may not be appointed. Indeed, in such circumstances, those who may have already been appointed to this ministry should not exercise it. The practice of those priests is reprobated who, even though present at the celebration, abstain from distributing Communion and hand this function over to laypersons."[10]
The extraordinary minister of Holy Communion may administer Communion only when the priest and deacon are lacking, when the priest is prevented by weakness or advanced age or some other genuine reason, or when the number of faithful coming to Communion is so great that the very celebration of Mass would be unduly prolonged. ... A brief prolongation, considering the circumstances and culture of the place, is not at all a sufficient reason."[11]
For a time, extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion in the United States were allowed to purify the Communion vessels (such as ciboria and chalices), an action that the present General Instruction of the Roman Missal expressly reserves for priest, deacon and instituted acolyte.[12] The special indult authorizing that practice for three years, beginning in 2002, was not renewed.[13]

Earth Angel
Dan the Man, delivers Starbucks to patients getting chemotherapy treatments at Michigan Cancer Center every Thursday. Does he work for Starbucks? Nope. Does he have a relative there? Not anymore. So why would this man spend his money to buy people he doesn't even know drinks at Starbucks? Well, a few years ago he found himself bringing his father to the MCI for chemo treatments. One afternoon as he looked around he got the idea to go and buy everyone that was getting treatment a drink of their choice at the Starbucks down the road. Dan's father has since passed but in his honor he keeps the tradition every Thursday and comes to Starbucks and places his order. After 3 years of people asking about why this man buys so many drinks, a custom Starbucks card was made with "Dan's Coffee Run" on it for anyone who would like to donate money that will go directly to purchasing drinks for the patients of MCI.
The charity that is a trifle to us can be precious to others.~ Homer

What a wonderful story. And why don't we hear more of this kind of news, rather than the junk they broadcast. Have an awesomely wonderful day!!
I re-posted this to my blog. I think this man needs help. What a way to show compassion, love and sharing for his fellow man, especially through illness and sadness.
If you do not want me to, please let me know.
Thank you for sharing and getting the word out.
DenimThat is so nice, having been through Chemo I remember being so cold. Covered in blankets and freezing and would have loved a Starbucks. I do believe I spotted tiny angel wings on Dan's back.

Popular Lotus Cup Race Series gets a global makeover
Over the years, the Lotus Cup Race Series has developed into one of the most successful race series brands in the world, often with capacity grids of Elise, Exige, 2-Eleven and Europa race cars racing and jostling for position. Previously operated from several countries in Europe and Japan, the Lotus Cup has now expanded considerably to include the USA, UK and Eastern Europe.
Not only has the Lotus Cup grown in size, the organization of the series has been consolidated. For the first time this year, drivers will now race to one set of rules, regulations and formats in championships around the world including:
· Lotus Cup UK
· Lotus Cup Europe
· Lotus Cup Italy
· Lotus Cup USA (West Coast)
· Lotus Cup USA (East Coast)
· Lotus Cup Eastern Europe
· Lotus Cup Japan
Director of Lotus Motorsport Claudio Berro said: "Lotus sports car racing is one of the most popular forms of accessible motorsport in the world, both at a spectator and participant level. Now is the time to bring these championships under the Lotus umbrella, to ensure consistent look and feel to the competition. This will have obvious benefits to the current drivers and encourage new racers, ensuring that the cars and components remain good value and the competition retains its accessibility."
Lotus will provide increased support and investment for these race series and will also ensure that the new Cup Championships retain the community feel and friendliness that an enthusiast based race series needs.
The Lotus Cup Championships will receive a new identity, logos, branding, website and Corporate Identity which are aligned closely to Lotus' new motorsport strategy and initiatives announced over the last few months and consolidated at the Autosport show last weekend.

" permit any packet from address 18.104.22.168 to any others address if configured , in this router, more 255.255.255.255 and more all mulsticast address? (22.214.171.124 for rip for example)
22.214.171.124 is for example the adjacent router on my fa 0/0...( and so I have to configure acl in inboud) -
Hi Georgi,
Sure this can be done with object groups:
Hi Rene,
I have that too, R2 points to the ASA, but the lab did not work for me. I think it is a static NAT issue because the ASA drops the packet due to rpf-check. Here is a packet tracer from the ASA

Hi John,
That makes sense In my example I didn't have NAT configured...just the IP addresses and security levels on the ASA, that's it.
Hi Oskar,
If this was a real network with Internet connectivity and public/private addresses then yes, you would need NAT. In this example however it's just an ASA with three interfaces. Nothing has to be translated.

I respect games that take chances. Flower, Okami and others are all games that have taken chances, be it their art style or gameplay, and have excelled. I'll always support a developer or studio who tries something different and puts their heart into it. It's far better than most of the half asses sequels released that people just eat up (Force Unleashed 2 for example) Which brings me to El Shaddai-Ascension of the Metatron.
I'll admit, I'm not completely sold on it yet. I have a general idea of what the game is about and I'm content with that for now. After playing the demo and hearing so much about it, I wasn't blown away but I'll reserve judgement for the time being. The way I began my blog today is part of the reason a game like this will get my benefit of the doubt. But there is something else that should be obvious. The music and the art style are incredible and there is no denying it.
So with that, El Shaddai gets my ringing endorsement for a playthrough in this blog. Be it a rental or purchase, give it a chance. Look for it on July 26th.
Let me know your thoughts on this or any other shining gems you have come across over the years. Also, if there is another game you are looking forward to that is outside the mainstream, let me know about it.

In our roundup of this week's New York Tech Meetup, we mentioned that Twilio gave an absolutely amazing demo. A post from Fred Wilson tipped us off to the fact that there is video of the demo available.
We won't spoil it by telling you what happens, but we really recommend watching it. This is how you show a room full of techies that it's easy to do cool stuff with your product:
