Template:Cite gold platin[edit]
Hi there. I was wondering about this. The issue is not critical - the template is a redundant template waiting to be removed when I find the time to replace it with the new one. But regarding the change you made, the endash was added following a request by another editor. I must admit I do not really know the rules of dashes on foreign languages, so I just fulfilled the request. Was that editor wrong? Best regards. --Muhandes (talk) 08:59, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
- Hello Muhandes. The expression "Gold/Platin-Datenbank" is what is called a Kompositum in German (see also the English-language entry "Compound", although German is only briefly mentioned there). Such constructions are often written as one word, and if not, a hyphen is used (it's kinda ironic: normally, people use hyphens when there should be used an en or em dash, here it's the other way round). Regards – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 11:12, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
Please leave an informative edit summary next time[edit]
Hi Oestrus.
Please take note of this edit of mine: [1], to WP:MOS. I request that you leave an edit summary next time you edit core guidelines or policy. Don't leave the job of maintaining a record of changes to others. It's part of the work of making an edit that you signal what you're up to. Thanks.
NoeticaTea? 12:06, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
- OK, duly noted. I thought it didn't matter for such minor edits, but I was obviously wrong. My apologies, and thanks for adding an edit summary. Regards – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 12:14, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
Hyphens and dashes[edit]
Hi, when changing hyphens to dashes, please be careful not to break links, as you did here - the second parameter of
{{BS-header}} is the name of the template which will be viewed or edited when you click the v-d-e links, and so it must match the template name. --Redrose64 (talk) 17:22, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
- Hello Redrose64
Your invitation to participate in a Wikimedia-approved survey in online behavior.[edit]
Hello, my name is Michael Tsikerdekis[2][3], currently involved as a student in full time academic research at Masaryk University. I am writing to you to kindly invite you to participate in an online survey about interface and online collaboration on Wikipedia. The survey has been reviewed and approved by the Wikimedia Foundation Research Committee.
I am contacting you because you were randomly selected from a list of active editors. The survey should take about 7 to 10 minutes to complete, and it is very straightforward.
Wikipedia is an open project by nature. Let's create new knowledge for everyone! :-)
To take part in the survey please follow the link: tsikerdekis.wuwcorp.com/pr/survey/?user=19836018 (HTTPS).
Best Regards, Michael Tsikerdekis (talk) 09:07, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
PS: The results from the research will become available online for everyone and will be published in an open access journal.
UPDATE: This is the second and final notification for participating in this study. Your help is essential for having concrete results and knowledge that we all can share. I would like to thank you for your time and as always for any questions, comments or ideas do not hesitate to contact me. PS: As a thank you for your efforts and participation in Wikipedia Research you will receive a Research Participation Barnstar after the end of the study. --Michael Tsikerdekis (talk) 08:15, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

A barnstar for you![edit]
|The Minor barnstar
|For doing a great job making MoS fixes that make Wikipedia more professional (at least in my opinion). I make those fixes too, but not in the heroic quantities you do! David1217 What I've done 16:09, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hey, David1217, thanks!
- Silly as it may seem, but you made my day, as I wouldn't have thought anyone to actually notice, let alone appreciate those corrections – actually, at first I thought you were being sarcastic (well, some sarcasm is there, but in a good way, if that makes sense). – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 21:12, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
- No sarcasm was intended. I really do appreciate the minor fixes—it's always nice to know that someone else is improving Wikipedia in the same way. By the way, did you know that there is a script to fix hyphens and dashes? David1217 What I've done 21:23, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks for the tip – I gotta say, though, I don't yet know the first thing about scripts and am therefore hesitant to [try to install] and use them. But I guess someday, I will have to take the plunge, anyway, so I might or might not look into it in a bit.
- By the way, what do you do in cases such as this? It's got both spaced hyphens and NYT-style spaced em dashes. Should I convert the spaced hyphens to spaced em dashes to harmonize what's already there (even though using spaced em dashes is against guidelines), or should I replace everything with spaced en dashes? Or employ unspaced em dashes when divisions or stops / interruptions are marked within a sentence and spaced en dashes for titles and item separations? But then again, the spaced em dashes are within a quote – a quote from the deliberately spaced em dashes-using New York Times... – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 12:48, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
- About the script—it's very easy to install: just create User:Ὁ οἶστρος/common.js with
importScript('User:GregU/dashes.js');. Once that's done, a "–" button will appear in the drop down menu next to the watch/unwatch button. It's quite easy to use, too.
- About the script—it's very easy to install: just create User:Ὁ οἶστρος/common.js with
- About the dashes in quotations problem: per MOS:QUOTE (what a Byzantine guideline the MoS is!):
- "Although the requirement of minimal change is strict, a few purely typographical elements of quoted text should be adapted to English Wikipedia's conventions without comment. This practice of conforming typographical styling to a publication's own "house style" is universal. Allowable typographical alterations include these: Styling of dashes and hyphens: see Dashes, below. Use the style chosen for the article: unspaced em dash or spaced en dash." (It continues, but I didn't add the rest.)
- So I guess you should use spaced en dashes for everything, as that's what you (presumably) correct spaced hyphens to. You're the only Wikipedian I've met (besides myself) who has such an interest in dashes! David1217 What I've done 19:26, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
- Much obliged for your help in both topics – and, yeah, rather weird fascination that, ain't it? But if you don't tell anyone, I won't, either... No, seriously, I concur with what you wrote above about it making Wikipedia look more professional: as a reader (which I primarily am), it just irks me when my eyes hit upon countless such errors, as I think proper typography behooves what wants to be an encyclopædia. – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 21:13, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
I didn't really think about dashes until I read the MoS and realized, There are tons of articles with hyphens instead of dashes. I guess I decided to fix it because it irks me to see them wrong, and because not many other editors do it. Well, happy editing! David1217 What I've done 23:57, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
- To you, too, as well as a very merry unbirthday – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 08:38, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
Negative coordinate values[edit]
Please don't change hyphens to dashes in {{coord}} templates, as you did here and here. Doing so breaks the template syntax, so that the coordinates don't display or link correctly the articles. (No negative sign actually appears in an article in any event; what is displayed is "S" for negative latitudes and "W" for negative longitudes.) Deor (talk) 12:35, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
- OK, sorry. But shouldn't the template be changed or expanded, then, so it can handle real minus signs (which are different from en dashes)? – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 12:48, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
"Fixing dashes"[edit]
<humor>I couldn't help but notice your recent changes of Airy disk in your "fixing dashes" mode. Of course you're correct according to Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Dashes and Dash. But I thought to take a moment to ask you have you considered the massive amount of memory, computer time and resources (see Global warming) which fritters away by reason of this pursuit? If you ever have thought about it, would you consider changing your mind if you were given an alternative meme i.e. that a dash is a dash is a hyphen? (Repeat after me: A dash is a dash is a hyphen.) And so, would you ever consider throwing yourself into the dis-organized opposition and becoming a Wikipedian Hypen Luddite? If so, see Category:Wikipedian Hyphen Luddites Sorry for the nowiki markers, but if I post the category with a wikilink it will mess up your user categories. </humor>
Trilobitealive (talk) 00:48, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
- Nah, sorry, ain't gonna join you rabble-rousers.
- While I like the self-deprecating tone of your movement ("Dash proudly!"), its cause is misguided: a rose is a rose is a rose, but a hyphen is not a dash, just as a question mark is not an exclamation mark, and a comma is not a colon.
- (By the way, are you sure your message was meant all in good fun? Ya know, people who try to clobber you with global warming whenever they possibly [and impossibly] can usually aren't blessed with humor in spades – there probably should be proposed a new law, something akin to Mr. Godwin's...) – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 02:45, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
- Well said. I'll ask my next QWERTY keyboard maker to incorporate the full spectrum of dashes. ;^)
- (Yes, its all by way of a humorous introduction. Actually I just used the reference for its poetic effect. Sadly the world has been warming ever since the Younger Dryas fizzled out 11.5K years ago and there's nothing we can do one way or another until the next big freeze. Trust me I would never clobber anyone with it, firmly believing the clobberers are much like the sunspot alarmists in Venus on the Half Shell.)

Replaceable fair use File:5544 Meier1.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:5544 Meier1.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
- On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy.

My Bonnie Lies over the Ocean vs. My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean
Hello Kww. With regards to this (by the way, you also changed "IMDb" back to "IMDB" – it would be nice to be a bit more diligent when reverting others), please take a look at the edit summary here. Do you really want to change One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, although it doesn't seem to be spelled with a lowercased "o" in over, like, anywhere? Looking forward to your reply. Regards – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 19:01, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
MOS:CT is pretty clear that it's "over", not "Over". The goal is to capitalize consistently within Wikipedia, not consistently with the source. That's a little strange, but it is well-established policy. I'll agree that the "preposition of under five characters" rule is a strange one, and winds up looking funny to my eyes as well. I've considered starting an RFC to see if there's really consensus for that part of the MOS.—Kww(talk) 19:31, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks for your reply. I don't know much about the "procedural side" of Wikipedia, so I started this. Should I have put that elsewhere? (By the way, I certainly am ready to have it either way – and what choice do we really have here, after all...? –, but need some certainty first, as currently, some titles are spelled according to that rule and some are not) – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 19:54, 10 December 2012 (UTC)

This Little Light of Mine[edit]
Hello, I don't see any references that state the information on the "This little light of mine" is actually true regarding who is the composer of "This little light of mine". The only reference on the page actually uses wikipedia as it's reference. I am totally new here, so I don't know how to proceed. Can you help? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Srsinger (talk • contribs) 15:44, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
- Hello Srsinger. I'm afraid I only did some copy editing there ((+4) means a change in four characters via-à-vis the previous version). But it generally is a good idea to contact people who edited the article (you might go for the entry's creator and / or people who made some further substantial edits). You can also check if there's a portal or project page for a topic and approach the Wikipedians hanging around there. Like, at the bottom of "This Little Light of Mine", there are categories listed; if you click on "American folk songs" and go to the talk page there, you'll find these links:
- Wikipedia is a constant work in progress, and while some articles are excellent, some are seriously lacking. For example, before this, the arguably most influential English-language version of "Lili Marleen" wasn't even properly listed. It's still a confusing and still a badly structured, written and sourced article, but – at least in my opinion – it's slightly better now (if you wanna see an even bigger mess [as of today], try this) – but hey, the good thing about this place is that if you come across something that's inadæquate, you can go about tackling and improving it yourself.

notification of current state of work title capitalization rules discussion over at WT:MoS
Hi. As you're one of those folks who contributed to the work title capitalization rules discussion over at WT:MoS but then seemed to tune out (and therefore – as opposed to the "MoS regulars" – probably didn't follow it any further), I just briefly wanted to point you towards my latest post there (beginning with "As there has been little progress"), which might well be the last overall: I'm phasing out, and since there hasn't been much input by other users lately, it's likely that over the next few days, the thread'll die (i.e., disappear into the archives) without there having been made any changes to the MoS. So I'd be much obliged if you took the time to stake your support for or opposition to my proposal (should I also have put an RfC tag there?) and – unless it's accepted (I'm not holding my breath...) – maybe even considered keeping the debate going. Thanks. (I'm aware of the unsolicited nature of this message, so if you feel molested by it, I apologize.) – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 14:26, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
I haven't participated further in the discussion partly due to frustration with people who insist that the MoS must conform to a house MOS from some other established entity. This, despite the fact these other entities more-or-less came up with their consistency rules on their own, not based on some other established MOS. To these people, Wikipedia can not establish its own rules, and debating any adjustments with them is futile.
Combine that with the "consensus nazis" who define consensus as "If it is not my opinion, then consensus means every person in the world must agree; therefore, even though I alone do not agree, it is not consensus." This is another group which it is futile to debate with. I do not know how any of us can deal with such extremist interpretations of WP policies, and so I have taken a break from the debate for a while.
Feel free to quote any of this anywhere you think appropriate. If you have any thoughts on how to deal with such interpretations, I would be interested. — al-Shimoni (talk) 03:59, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- I share some of your frustrations (and it seems that not everywhere the same standards are applied / not everyone is alway practicing what they preach), which is partly why I'm also on my way out of the debate, hoping to hand it over to someone else. – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 08:52, 16 February 2013 (UTC)

However, I'm sorry to say that the [quiet disregarding and] petering out of this attempt at change, as well as the sometimes duplicitous talk and the amount of tedious and tiresome postings, betraying their drafters as not having read or choosing to ignore what was already written, to be witnessed there in the process has turned me off any further participation in such matters (also, to me, it doesn't make sense to, as I consider it, put any further layers on a core that's unsound to begin with, but which to reform no one could be bothered with). – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 13:04, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

- Hi. I'm not sure you will even read this, since you have posted the same or similar messages in what seems an indiscriminate manner on numerous talk pages. It even appears that you have created an SPA for the, well, "single purpose" of canvassing people for "your cause". Such practice is – to put it mildly – discouraged here. Ignorance of Wikipedia's policies does not excuse you, as it's your own responsibility to read up on them, and it is not my job to inform you of anything.
- Be that as it may, perfunctorily perusing the mentioned article's talk page, I get the [maybe wrong] impression that you, under many different identities (which, again, would be unacceptable), have unsuccessfully been pushing for the inclusion of certain material for many months now. Frankly, I currently do neither have the time nor inclination to acquaint myself with the matter and then get involved (which might result in me voicing something you don't want to hear, anyway).
- I wish you the best, and in hoping you will be able to resolve the issues, I leave you with a piece of advice: An intellectually honest person will always weigh the opposition's arguments with great care and be very tough in challenging one's own positions, as, ya know, after all, everyone's capable of getting it wrong sometimes... – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 12:55, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

- Hey, thanks for the heads-up. Just gave my two cents. However, don't expect me to get more involved, as a) I'm rather short of time at the moment, b) I don't feel that strongly about this specific case and c) I'm still angry, angry, angry about this... (I corrected two more instances of "Brooklyn" in your post above, I hope that's OK with you. If not, please change it back, as I'm very particular about the notion of messing with other people's words and wouldn't want to give the false impression it's something to be taken lightly.) – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 13:12, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks! Saw it. Completely understandable. I had, by what was literally complete coincidence, been on the page for Lordz of Brooklyn that same day, and my fingers often do different things than my brain. Re the MOS link, wow. That's why I try to stay as surface-level as I can on all things wiki, because once you start peeling back layers (or have them foisted upon you) shit gets bizarre and passionate -- two of the worst possible qualities of a bureaucracy.

MOS:COMMA change[edit]
It is a little premature to crawl through pages with changes citing "MOS:COMMA" broadly when the change was (1) recently added, and (2) has no apparent consensus. I reverted the edit per BRD and put it up for discussion here: WT:MOS#MOS:COMMA_change_discussion. I recommend that you revert your edits until the discussion is resolved—otherwise, it's going to leave a huge mess. czar ♔ 19:25, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
- Sorry, but just what are you talking about? Did you actually read the MoS? This practice has been ongoing for years. This is not about the somewhat controversial issue of dates being used in an adjectival sense ("a January 25, 2014 article" vs. "a January 25, 2014, article" – I consider the latter, with the second comma, wrong here, by the way). Also, I'm not "crawling through pages", I'm just a reader that corrects stuff that catches his eye. Please stop making such baseless claims. – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 20:18, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
- No need for hostilities. Yes, I've read the MOS. The example puts the dates/locations as asides, so it makes sense to have following commas. In the diff I linked above, you added a comma after "2014":
It was released on January 13, 2014, for Microsoft Windows via Steam.
- Whether "crawling through pages" is derogatory or not (and I have a rather hard time not conceiving it as such), it's wrongly interpreting my editing approach here. The examples in the MoS and the two instances in the Nidhogg article are analogous (as opposed to "a January 13, 2014 release for Microsoft Windows" – no comma there in my book, though I'm not sure what the current consensus is over at MoS). If you've realized your error, please revert yourself. – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 21:20, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
- If you don't mind, I didn't fully understand what you just said. You agree with the no comma after 2014 in what you just said? Because your edit added a comma there, which is what I reverted, so I'm not sure what you want me to revert. I'm looking into when the MOS added its current language of always following dates with commas. Wasn't there in 2012. I'll keep digging. Thanks for your help czar ♔ 21:27, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
- "You agree with the no comma after 2014 in what you just said? Because your edit added a comma there, [...]" (Czar) – That's because they're two different kinds of construction, the second treating the date as an adjective: in "a January 13, 2014 release", you could replace "January 13, 2014" with "new" or "limited" or whatever. "I'll keep digging." (Czar) – Please do. Have a nice day. – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 21:49, 25 January 2014 (UTC)

- No need for hostilities. Yes, I've read the MOS. The example puts the dates/locations as asides, so it makes sense to have following commas. In the diff I linked above, you added a comma after "2014":
I had written out a summary of my findings but I see you responded and are kind of done with this, so I'll take it elsewhere. Thanks for the explanation. czar ♔ 22:26, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
- Just saw your latest contrib over at WT:MoS: no worries, as far as I'm concerned, we're cool. However, I'd advise against trying to rewrite history: if you sober-mindedly, unemotionally re-read your postings in this matter, you will find it was you who from the very beginning took on a very condescending tone in your attempt at "correcting" me – not only on my Talk page, but in front of others (by the way, I'm certainly grateful when someone points out my mistakes to me, and even if they mistakenly point out "mistakes" that really are no mistakes, that ain't no biggie – but, as they say in German, "der Ton macht die Musik", roughly translatable as "it's not just what you say, but how you say it").

Greek privacy watchdog fines Vodafone $100m over wiretapping scandal
It seems that the Greek data protection authority is a little more determined to punish privacy lawbreakers than many others around Europe. They have just fined Vodafone $100m for lax phone network security that allowed unknown hackers to wiretap the Greek prime minister as well as senior military officers, human rights activists and journalists (thanks, Dave!). George Danezis has more about the original hacking offences.

Lounging Style
Make over a porch with a few items (day bed, potted plants, Chinese lanterns) that will make the space comfortable and stylish. Thinking creatively can also help you stick to a budget. There's no reason why a trunk from inside can't step in as your outdoor coffee table. Besides, it's only for a season.

Ten Commandments Historical
"Most Christian denominations have historically held the Ten Commandments as being binding on Christians. Many Christians today do not agree. Why? What changed?"
Enlightenment, for those who understand. "Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,..." 1Ti 1:9 And that "whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law,.." Rom 3:19 "The law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor." Gal 3:24,25
Where Is Elijah And Enoch
Strongaxe yes, up until the time Jesus ascended no man had ascended to Heaven.
"so it cannot speak to what happened or will happen afterwards."
The fact that David hasn't speaks to that. If any man, other than Jesus was in Heaven it would be a man after "Gods own heart". Man will be raised and will spend the millennia on earth. Rev 20:6>Rev 5:10 I believe that the only Heaven that any of us will see is Heaven here on earth when the Father in His fullness dwells with man for the eternity. Rev 21:1-3
Where Is Elijah And Enoch
It is written that no man has ascended to Heaven. John 3:13 Not even David, a man after God's heart, is said to be in Heaven, even after Jesus ascended. Acts 2:34 So I do have biblical reasons for believing that no man is 'living' in Heaven. Concerning Elijah and Enoch, I know that they are mortal, since I know that they are destined to die, and logically, no moral has been walking around in Heaven for the last two thousand years. According to Rev 4:11 they await their assignment, and they can only be existing, or "standing by the LORD" (per Zec 4:14) in a state of stasis, or suspended animation initiated by the LORD. Can I prove this? No. However it remains my belief:o)
Finish It Here_Feb 2017
"Now I'm confused by your belief."
David grace is a gift. A man does nothing to merit a gift. The Father grants grace by the effectual working of His power. Eph 3:7 We are bestowed, granted, or given grace, not by what we do, or because we somehow earned it, but rather according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Eph 4:7 Again David every man that receives grace receives it as a gift and are called to serve one another according to that same grace. 1Pe 4:10 We are told that we are saved by grace, through faith, and that it is not of ourselves, it is the gift of God. Eph 2:8 It is my belief that grace, faith, love, mercy, and salvation are all gifts, all of God, so that no one can boast.
Salvation Greater Than Peter
"doesn't obedience then become a requirement to Grace?"
David grace requires nothing from us. Grace is the unmerited favor of the Father. His gift of reconciliation through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus that paid the penalty of sin so that man might be brought back into agreement with Himself. His divine influence upon the heart -focus- of man, that brings him into the condition & state of mind that allows for that place within himself to be opened to embracing & exercising His faith to rely on, depend upon, trust in, acknowledge & confess Jesus as LORD & Savior. The obedience of love is of Him, our love for each other is a gift, and every good, and perfect gift, is from above.
Who Is The Serpent
Earl don't leave before telling us exactly who you believe the serpent to be, and why?
"What is your position on this verse?"
You never made that clear.
Salvation Greater Than Peter
David, I agree, Jesus saves, and it is the Father's grace that brings us to salvation. Thank you for sharing your understanding of grace.
Salvation Greater Than Peter
"I don't say this to be insulting nor to argue, I'm stating a helpful fact which may just save your Life"
Thank you David, I know that you were not being insulting, and I was not insulted. I just misunderstood your post as well, my apologies. Please share your understanding of grace as taught by Jesus, and the scriptural basis of that understanding. Perhaps I have missed it.
P.S. I do understand that Paul is not the author of grace, he, like John and Peter, simple taught the grace of God as they understood it.
Salvation Greater Than Peter
I misunderstood you Kat. Thanks for taking the time to explain yourself.
Salvation Greater Than Peter
David, I think the problem I see here is the verse in Romans 12 is talking to those already saved"
Kat although this is not addressed to me, I read it as a response to my post. The verses says
every man
. It uses the Greek word "hekastos" which is defined every where in the N.T. as either everyman, everyone, or each one. This same word is used in Luke 2:3 and Rom 2:6, and I am sure that you know that those verses are not just referring to believers. However,
paul happen to be speaking only to believer at that time, he admonished them not to think of themselves more highly than they should. Why? Because
"God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith."
Salvation Greater Than Peter
When Abraham believed God and God imputed it to Abraham as righteousness, it had nothing to do with Abraham implement his spiritual gift.
Kat how do you think Abraham came to believe God? Do you honestly believe he came to implement that belief without the Father's influence? How do you read this verse? What is your understanding? "For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake. (NKJV,NIV) For it has been granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also suffer for his sake, (ESV) I only quoted a couple of versions, however they all read the same. I believe that Abraham was also given to believe the Fathers promises for Christ sake.
Salvation Greater Than Peter
"Jesus never mentioned the word "Grace" in the Gospel, not once!"
David where do you think John and Peter received the doctrine of grace if not from Jesus?>John 1:14-17>1Pe 5:5,5:10>2Pet 1:2>3:18 for example.
Who Is The Serpent
The great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: The dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan. Satan was indeed the serpent who beguiled Eve through his subtlety. The serpent, the snake, symbolizes cunning and wisdom. Figuratively representing Satan as the embodiment of malicious cunning. Jesus referred to the Pharisees, scribes and sadducees as serpents, a brood of vipers, of their father the devil. They and those like them are the seed of the serpent mentioned in Gen 3. He is referred to as a murderer from the beginning because His initial deception caused death. I know you disagree Earl, so who exactly do you believe the serpent to be, and why?
Salvation Greater Than Peter
If it is a gift from God, wouldn't you expect it to be perfect too?--David
As I've said, God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.(KJV) Rom 12:3 I prefer the KJV because I believe everyone is given the same measure. Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Rom 10:17 I believe the verse should read faith grows by understanding, and understanding by the word of God. The Greek akoe translated hearing is from the root akouo that can be defined understand. To me the words grows and understanding conveys the verse better, because not every one who gives audience believes the message. One can not put into practice, that which is not understood. Faith without works, (implementation, the work of faith), is dead
Who Is The Serpent
Earl what gives you the idea that beast of the field is a racial slur? Do you actually believe that Jer.31.27 is referring to the intermarrying of man and animal? Because nothing suggest that the word beast is being used symbolically or is in any way representative any human being. The verse is seems to suggest that the LORD "will greatly increase the human population and the number of animals in Israel and Judah" The Hebrew word used in the verse is "behemah" and has no other reference other than animal. You ask
"what is the seed of beasts sowing in the house of Israel and Judah?"
I believe the answer would be, more beast.

Students of Faith studies need not worry about paying for over-priced textbooks anymore – renting textbooks is an option! Faith textbooks – for example Strength for the Journey: Biblical Wisdom for Daily Living by [Peter J. Gomes], and The Heart of Christianity: Rediscovering a Life of Faith by [Marcus J. Borg] – are often some of the most frequently updated books by Publishing companies. The field of Faith is constantly changing, and new editions can come yearly and at a huge cost to students who continually buy new books. So why buy when you can rent cheap textbooks? There are plenty of Faith books to rent – BookRenter has of them all!
Used book sales can be a cheap option as well, but often can be more expensive than textbook rentals. However, there are very few return policies with used books, and especially when taking Faith classes, buying a used book can be dangerous and costly.

Richman, who also teaches antitrust and health law, won specific praise for teaching first-year contracts. Presenter Todd Miller '11 said it was his favorite first-year class. "And it's not because I'm gung-ho for promissory estoppel," he said. "It's because the professor was simply amazing."
Miller and co-presenter Joanna Darcus '12 praised Richman's energetic use of the Socratic method, his preparation, and his ability to vigorously engage students without embarrassing them. After her first contracts class with Richman, Darcus recalled, "I walked out thinking, 'Yes, this is what law school is supposed to be.'"
The assembled students and faculty gave a surprised Richman a lengthy standing ovation.
"I'm very touched and enormously appreciative," Richman said. "The law school classroom lets me intellectually engage, and often clash, with some very smart and very creative students. I think I get more out of it than they do."
The DONE awards, created by the DBA in 2007 to honor "Duke's Outstanding and Noteworthy Endeavors," also honored individual students and student organizations.
"Our strength is the strength of so many individual contributions" said Leigh Llewelyn '12, DBA academic chair and emcee of the event. "That's what we're honoring here today."
The award for Greatest Contribution to Civic Discourse was given to the Christian Legal Society for their ongoing speaker series.
The Street Law program won the award for Greatest Service to the Outside Community for their legal education outreach programs.
Duke Law's Drama Society was named Most Active in Law Student Life for its various productions. Presenter Justin Becker '12 called its annual variety show "the one night we get to forget we have these things called finals coming up."
Sarah Rutledge '10, student director of the Innocence Project, won the award for Outstanding Student Organization Leader. Rutledge was recognized for her focus on volunteer training and her reorganization of the Law School's largest student group.
The award for Outstanding Contribution to the Duke Law Community was given to David Mansfield '10; his many endeavors include service as managing director of the Innocence Project and work with the AIDS Legal Project and the Moot Court Board.

sonic shampoo by Persian-YankWatch
©2008-2017 Persian-Yank

I recently discovered I'm getting Mario Boxers for christmas. The only situation where it is good to get underwear for Christmas.
probably some generic company wants to benifet off of some video games succses, so they do that with only one formula of shampoo. Well everybody loves an italian boy (maybe not everybody)
There's a t shirt that shows mario and says "Everyone loves an italian boy." Speaking of mario apparrel, I discovered I am going to get Mario boxers for christmas. The only situation where getting underwear for christmas is good.
I would like chainmail dimond armor for clothes because dimonds are harder than anything, that beats anything.that would beat my psp gift from xmass 2005. that would any nintendo apperal you can't beat dimond armor
A psp?
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
what's wrong with a psp, I like it because it is very valuble in modding. But I want the new Dsi for modding purposes. I got interested in building pc's, gaming pcs because of the psp and a few laptop problems with todays high tech gaming. (I use this laptop for art but I always like gaming heavy games on portable systems but this lappy is a crappy)
I just can't think of one single game worth owning, other than Monster hunter, and sure, it has the PSX hack, but I already went through the 7 stages of hell just to get Epsxe running, so in my mind, there just seems no point, or at least for me. also if I waned a music player, I'd use my iPod, and if I wanted camera, I'd buy one.
Sorry if I sounded like a jerk anywhere in there.
Sorry if I sounded like a jerk anywhere in there.

Here Is the Beautiful Modern Ketubah You've Been Searching For
Ink with Intent has you covered
Sometimes you think (and discuss) your wedding priorities long and hard, but then when you set out to make them happen, the wedding industry responds with a big fat #nope. And sometimes, because APWers are problem-solvers, some of you make those giant gaping holes in the wedding industry into incredible women-owned small businesses. And that is exactly how Ink with Intent, APW's go-to for modern, customizable, actually beautiful, ketubot (that's the plural of ketubah!) and wedding certificates came to be. Back in 2013, APW reader and Ink with Intent artist and founder Adriana Saipe set out to find the perfect ketubah for her Jewish-Quaker interfaith wedding, and instead found out the world was desperately lacking in ketubot and wedding certificates that were contemporary, colorful, and inclusive of all couples.…Keep Reading

President Barack Obama has approved 32 counties for federal public assistance for damage sustained by severe weather that began April 19th. Starke County was the only county listed from Northern Indiana that will be receiving funding.
Public assistance means state and local governments and certain non-profit organizations in the designated counties are eligible to apply for federal assistance to pay 75 percent of the approved cost of debris removal, emergency services related to the disaster and repairing or replacing damaged public facilities, such as roads, buildings and utilities.
Starke County will receive reimbursement for the levee break at the Robbins Ditch. Starke County EMA Director, Ted Bombagetti, said that he is not certain of the total cost of the damages, but when the final total is realized, Starke County will receive 75% of the funding.

What's next for Steve & Fran?
In their own words…
…We've been incredibly busy (as usual) with both the show and the campaign. The campaign seems to be really generating a lot of interest at the moment. We are in the process of getting some new T-shirts made up to try to meet the increasing demands. We're looking for fairly traded shirts made with organic cotton and water based dyes. High standards yes, but we really want to trounce the opposition this time. If you'd like one let us know what size and we'll send you one out when they're done.
In addition to the campaign we've got several other projects on the go.
A London recording studio recently invited us down to make an album. We were very flattered - they hadn't even heard us play - so it was just on the basis of reputation. I guess we must be doing something right despite what some of the critics have said.
We've also been invited to play in a London jazz club, but with all the other stuff we probably won't have time, not this year anyway.
One thing we want to do is work with some local unemployed kids and adults. A new social centre called Matilda has been looking for people to teach DJing skills and we've started talking with them about running a series of music workshops. This would be as thrilling and interesting for us as it would be for them. It would be a sort of 'back to our roots' thing, something that most musicians do at some point in their careers anyway.
So it's work work work over here. Sometimes we do wonder about this crazy world of showbusiness though. Is the timetable of never ending work and play simply a convenient, subconcious mechanism to escape from our inner demons? Are we stubbornly refusing to acknowledge the fear implied in exploring these dark recesses of the mind?
Best wishes from the UK,
Steve & Fran

Greenspan Autonomy Is an Issue
By NATHANIEL C. NASH, Special to the New York Times
Published: July 21, 1987
WASHINGTON, July 20— When Alan Greenspan appears before the Senate Banking Committee for his confirmation hearing on Tuesday, his independence as the next chairman of the Federal Reserve Board from White House politics will be one of the primary focuses of questioning, Congressional aides said today.
''Proxmire is particularly interested in the board's independence from the Presidency, particularly Greenspan's independence,'' said one Senate Banking Committee staff member, referring to concerns of the panel's chairman, Senator William Proxmire, Democrat of Wisconsin.
Committee aides said they expected Mr. Proxmire and other senators to question the economist on how he plans to keep the Federal Reserve's monetary policy free from political influences of the Reagan Administration.
The aides noted in particular that, before President Reagan leaves office, he will have appointed the entire seven-member board. As the 1988 election year approaches, they said, concern will increase over whether the Reagan appointees will be tempted to advocate an expansive monetary policy that creates a favorable economic environment for Republicans, at the expense of rekindling inflation later on.
''We are sure Mr. Greenspan will keep himself insulated from political temptations, but Senator Proxmire would like to hear him say it,'' the aide said. ''It's the kind of thing you want on the record so you can hold someone to what they said.''
There is little doubt that Mr. Greeenspan's nomination will be approved by the Banking Committee and the full Senate, and that the business economist is fully qualified for the job as the nation's top central banker. But members of Congress continue to voice concern that his ties to the Reagan White House and to the private sector pose potential obstacles to independent judgments.
They acknowledge that much of their concern is more an effort to reinforce the understanding at the central bank that the Federal Reserve is primarily answerable to Congress, and is a creation of Congress, and not an arm of White House policy. They point particularly to the outgoing chairman, Paul A. Volcker, who at times frustrated both the Reagan and Carter Administrations with tight monetary policies that restricted growth in the economy. History of Close Association
Indeed, Mr. Greenspan has a history of close association with the Reagan Administration. From 1981 to 1983, he served as chairman of President Reagan's National Commission on Social Security. He was on the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board from 1983 to 1985, and from 1981 to date, he has been a member of the President's Economic Policy Advisory Board.
In addition to questions about his independence, the committee will also try to pin Mr. Greenspan down on his views on financial deregulation and just how far he will be willing to take those views once at the helm of the Federal Reserve.
Mr. Greenspan has taken a strong deregulatory stance, advocating giving banks new powers to underwrite securities, and permitting non-banking concerns to own banks. This approach is in sharp contrast to the views of Senator Proxmire, who is suspicious of giving banks broad new underwriting powers, which are generally proscribed by the Glass-Steagall Act, and letting unregulated companies into the banking business.
''There is a difference between advocating and promoting your own opinion and enforcing an existing law, such as Glass-Steagall,'' one committee aide said. ''We want to know whether or not he is going to enforce the law.'' Questions About Companies
Mr. Greenspan will also be questioned about consulting work he has done for two companies in particular - Sears, Roebuck & Company and the Lincoln Savings and Loan Association of Irvine, Calif. In both cases, Mr. Greenspan did ''advocacy projects'' for these companies in the area of financial deregulation.
Other panel members are expected to pose less combative questions on broad economic policies and few fireworks are expected at the confirmation hearing, which will likely last at least through the morning and possibly into the afternoon. ''People are saying it's going to be pretty straightforward,'' one staff member said.
A vote by the committee is expected next week, and a vote by the full Senate is expected before Congress leaves for its August recess.

about the pEqn in PISO loop of icoFoam
I am a beginner of OF, Recently I got some problems when read the code
of icoFoam, in the solver :
fvm::laplacian(rAU, p) == fvc::div(phi)
this is the pEqn defined in the PISO loop of the icoFoam,but, compared to the pressure equation (3.141) described in jasak's thesis(sorry ,I dont known how to inset a formulation here),I think the r.h.s. should be fvc::div(U),because H(U)/aP is assigned to U by "U = rAU*UEqn.H()",
So now I am confused ,could anybody help me ,thanks!
fvc::div(U) is correct and it is used in icoFoam. In all incompressible solvers, the equation is divided by density. Therefore, the pressure used in incompressible solvers is actually pressure divided by density.
Best Regards,
Hi, Christian
Thanks for your reply, I known the pressure is divided by density.
but what confused me is that the fvc::div(phi) in the r.h.s. of the p equation given in the source codes of icoFoam.C should be div(U) according to the pressure equation in Jasak's thesis,as far as I known,phi is defiend as the scalar product of velcotiy at the cell surface and the surface vector,obviously,U is not equal to phi.So why they use div(phi)?
Hi, first of all, I have a typo above, fvc::div(U) is wrong and fvc::div(phi) is correct. Sorry about that. Have a look at the eqn 3.141 in jasak's thesis. The second line is exactly what is written in the pEqn of icoFoam. Christian
Hi,Chris,thank you very much,
now I get understand,the key problem here is that the fvc::div(phi) isn't to get the divergence of phi, you can not get the divergence of a scalar field, it should be the convection operator, to get the face flux of U, just like div(phi, U) for ▽(UU).

Today, Gov. Dave Heineman commented on LB 104, a bill that commendably includes a provision that would prevent an increase in local sales taxes by a half-cent in Omaha.
However, the bill also offers tax breaks for an out-of-state company instead of prioritizing significant tax relief to hard-working, middle income families throughout the entire state. While the Governor strongly supports renewable energy, he has stated that favoring out-of-state special interests over Nebraska's citizens is wrong.
The Governor offered the following comment:
"I signed LB 104 into law today because the most important issue in this bill is to protect Omaha taxpayers from a sales tax increase. As I said earlier, I do not favor the part of this bill that provides a Kansas company a special tax break, when the Legislature didn't provide new, significant tax relief to Nebraskans.
"As Governor, if I had line-item authority for policy bills similar to my budget line-item authority, I would veto the special tax break for a Kansas company and keep only the portion of the bill that protects Omaha taxpayers from a sales tax increase. Today, the Platte Institute issued a report describing the wind energy portion of this bill as, "corporate welfare,' and I share that concern.
"This was a difficult decision, but my most important priority is protecting Nebraskans from a tax increase."
