Drug law in the European Union
What a complete mess! Sweden and Spain are the two extremes for the law on drugs in the European Union. Sweden follows a zero tolerance policy whereas Spain has decriminalized personal consumption. I was recently talking to a young Swedish person who didn't want to, but had to smoke the legal synthetic cannabis instead of the real thing. He thought that the synthetic cannabis had messed him up, but he didn't feel he had a choice. All his friends smoke synthetic pot regularly. I told him as strongly as I could, not to touch synthetic marijuana. It is dangerous and is mixed with strange chemicals in a warehouse somewhere in China. In contrast I have lived in Spain. Sharing a joint at the beach is a great way to spend an afternoon. I never made it to the Barcelona cannabis clubs but there was never a need to go to one as you could buy hash from the Moroccan guys or weed from Spanish friends.
Young European adults are exposed to the same western culture. Generally speaking, cannabis is seen as something fun and not dangerous. Science backs up this point of view but our governments treat cannabis as more dangerous than alcohol. The reason they do this is because America was so aggressive during the heights of their failed drugs war that they would economically punish countries if they didn't conform to their ideas about drugs. Waves of propaganda left the public thinking that marijuana was something very bad. Thankfully today we are seeing the disastrous war on drugs coming to an end. In fact the American marijuana industry will soon be giving money to the politicians who I'm sure will then act in the industries best interest.
European citizens are in a state of confusion. Force fed a diet of American anti marijuana propaganda for decades it will take time to regain a factual approach and perspective to the herb. We have laws that currently make criminals out of European Union citizens for taking a substance into their bodies that is proven less dangerous than alcohol or tobacco. We are punished for the circular argument of, because cannabis is illegal it is illegal. Almost all European countries treat cannabis as different from other drugs. This special treatment of marijuana is nice, but people are still going to prison for possession. We need change. Medical marijuana has helped patients that get access to it. From chronic pain to cancer the plant has shown wondrous medical benefits so every day that drags along without Brussels or our elected governments talking and doing something about it, is another day that a chronic pain sufferer must either pump toxic chemicals into their bodies or live with the constant maddening pain their illnesses inflict.
I also feel sorry for the Swedish people forced to use synthetic marijuana. Their government has failed them and is now too ignorant to admit their mistake and correct it. Swedish people might have to battle long and hard for legal access to the plant. The sooner they get organized and have their voice heard the better. There are great organizations out there to help. Norml and Encod.org can give a framework for activism. Europeans that are pro pot must connect and cooperate with each other. Cannabis is our choice, not the whim of a bloated, intellectually stunted bureaucratic system. We must take our rights, not ask for them. Cannabis clubs are a safe, organized approach to the subject and we will see the results in the following months and years.

Not to be disparaging, but the 12th arrondissement's post-modern police headquarters building would fit in nicely on a Las Vegas strip. The Paris building, with its row of 12 imitations of Michelangelo's Dying Slave (also known as the Captive), is the work of Spanish postmodern architect of renown, Manolo Nuñez-Yanowski. Built in 1991 on the corner of avenue Daumesnil and rue de Rambouillet, the ironizing statues are best viewed from the suspended gardens across the street, the Promenade Plantée.
The Promenade Plantée, created from 1988 thru 1993, is a 4.7 km park high atop the red-brick viaduct of a discontinued urban rail line that crossed the 12th arrondissement. Landscape architects left clearings in the shrubbery and trees for observation of the more interesting architectural elements along the narrow but long promenade--like the building above.
View of a section of the old railway transformed into the Promenade Plantée. Some ten meters above street level, the suspended garden begins behind the Opéra Bastille and continues, elevated, to the Jardin Reuilly, after which it descends, ending at the old terminus near the boulevard périphérique.
At street level on avenue Daumesnil, the arcades of the viaduct were transformed into a designers' area, the Viaduc des Arts. Fifty or so storefronts are there in which mostly high-end artisanal activities are carried on--such as violin-making, lacemaking or restoration of antique parasols.

Many supposedly non-fiction books are just plain nonsense, creations of someone's ability to simply type at a keyboard and hit the upload button without using any of the reference features of their word processor or the Internet. One non-fiction book I downloaded, and almost immediately erased, was supposedly chock full of hints about getting your e-book published. It was filled with assumptions and incorrect information, spelling errors that any word processor should have caught, and a naïve assumption that everything the author wrote was cast in stone. I'm surprised the author actually had the e-book published especially if he followed his own recommendations.
On the fiction side of the free e-book world, every possible combination of unlikely, politically incorrect heroine or unwashed, distasteful, outcast hero has been exhausted. Fiction books seem to be in the same realm as comic books, which may actually be better written. If I read the phrases "special agent," or "steal the formula" one more time, I'll put my Kindle on the shelf and go back to the classics. Editors and publishers must be wondering what the literary world is coming to. In the free e-book world, mankind is always saved by some maverick/outcast/sociopath who doesn't follow the rules/laws/or any of the covenants of civilization, but is smarter/stronger/swifter and more resourceful than any government/religion/corporation on earth. The protagonist agency/commission/office is always sinister/incompetent/inept in some way that the unlikely hero/heroine always masters because his/her dad/mother was a scientist/genius/prisoner who inspired his/her offspring to rise above the plebeian masses, and in the process, endowed them with the luck of a cat with nine lives. I like to strike out every third word from the main character's dialog just to make the book interesting. Sometimes, though, I find it really doesn't make much difference.

Taking other medicines
Other Antihypertensive: No adverse reactions occur in combination with other antihypertensive drugs.
Norepinephrine: Indapamide do not affect the effectiveness of norepinephrine.
Pregnancy and breast-feeding
There is no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women and so indapamide is not recommended. Mothers taking indapamide should not breast feed.

If you stop taking Indelix® SR
Do not stop taking this medicine without talking to your doctor. You should not stop taking Indelix SR just because you feel better. This is because the problem may come back or get worse again.
If you have any further questions on the use of this product, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

The NewTek SX-84 is the heart of the VT 5 LIVE! Switcher, offering component, Y/C or composite ins and outs, along with audio, preview, alpha channel, tally, GPI and machine control.
There are 8 Video input rows, but that does not indicate the true flexibility of this rack-mountable beauty measuring 18 7/8" wide by 10 1/2" high (or 6 rack-units high) and 1 1/2" deep.
This is a production switcher that saves you both time and money.
All inputs can use whatever cameras you have at your disposal, and unlike most switchers, does not require cameras to be genlockable. VT 5 performs all this internally, with each input having its own dedicated genlock controls in software. This means less gear to haul to a shoot, less time in setup and less investment for you to produce a multi-cam production. There is even an input for house synch, so you can time VT 5 to the other suites.
INPUTSEach input row consists of a Y/C input, a Y, U and V BNC input. This allows connection of 8 component cameras to VT, which is something not available to producers at even twice the price.
Not many production facilities have that many component cameras for live switching, so the SX-8 allows you to mix and match inputs for incredible flexibility. Connect a component camera to input 1, then a Y/C camera to input 2, and then connect three composite video sources to the three BNC connectors on input 3.
When a Y/C source is connected, the BNC V connector is still free for a composite input.
This means you can connect inputs with the following combinations:
Audio inputs are also quite flexible, with 4 microphone inputs (with phantom power). Those same inputs can be switched to line-level for 4-channel balanced audio support. There are also 6 stereo pair of unbalanced inputs. Add to that an Aux Return input for any audio coming back from outboard devices, such as parametric equalizers, limiters or reverb units. NewTek gives you incredible flexibility.
OUTPUTSYour choices are equally flexible on the way out of VT 5 . There are 4 rows of video outs, which allow you to send Program Out to several devices for display or recording. You can also send your output in component or Y/C and composite. VT 5 also provides an output for your Preview field monitor. That connection can be soft-switched to become a dedicated key out.
Audio outputs provide four balanced outs, 4 stereo pair of unbalanced outs and an Aux Send channel if you wish to perform a pre-fader manipulation of an audio input. The integrated audio mixer provides such handy live capabilities as a Talkover function for VJ's and a mix-minus record.
DV(IEEE1394)Although SX-84 is analog, many customers are interested in FireWire in and out. If you have a IEEE 1394 Firewire card installed in your VT 5 machine, you can bring in your DV camera as an input into VT 5 switcher. Real-time FireWire out is also available whether you are editing graphics in VT[5] or switching a show with VT 5 LIVE!
CONTROLWith more than 100 connectors on this switcher expansion module, we have included inputs for controlling decks and external devices as well. SX-84 includes three independent RS-422 machine control ports to remotely operate your professional decks, as well as a serial connector and a Tally/GPI connection. VT 5 gives you complete control over hardware so YOU have control over your production.
Educational hardware purchases only available to accredited educational institutions and must be accompanied with qualifying educational institute documentation

Toxic black mold is a common problem in many homes, especially in areas with high levels of humidity. Mold can grow just about anywhere where there's enough moisture, but common places to find mold include bathrooms, carpets, basements, wood, ceiling tiles, and curtains. A little mold is nothing to worry about, but a major infestation of toxic black mold can be lethal. Toxic mold is a major cause of allergies in the home and can lead to more serious respiratory problems. Getting rid of toxic black mold can be a major challenge, but is a necessary step towards preserving the air quality in your home.
Step 1
Locate areas with toxic black mold and spray these or other mold-vulnerable places using white vinegar. According to Getridofthings.com, white vinegar has powerful cleaning agents that kill mold. It's also non-toxic, cheap, and perfectly OK to spread all over your bathrooms, kitchens, or any other place you're likely to find mold. You can even mop the bathroom floor using vinegar to protect it from mold growth.
Step 2
Try more conventional cleaning products if you're not sold on the white vinegar idea. There are dozens of different cleaners on the market, some better than others. Buy one that is safe to use anywhere in the house and has specific mold-killing agents.
Step 3
Use an air-conditioner when it's particularly hot and humid. Air conditioners "condition" the air (by cooling and dehumidifying it) for optimal human comfort and safety. Use an air conditioner that has a hygrometer or buy one separately. The ideal RH (relative humidity) level for mold growth is around 65 percent, so keep humidity levels well below that (around 40 percent is typical for a home air-conditioning system).
Step 4
In a colder home or particularly cool area of the house, use a humidifier to prevent mold and control the humidity levels if a problem arises. Again, try to keep the relative humidity around 40 percent.
Step 5
Use baking soda to prevent mold on carpets. Just sprinkle some on the carpet and vacuum it up the next morning.

night rider
white water falling from black jagged rocks,
trickles into thin rivulets
like pale fingers
stroking a consensual body
and these trees lean over, observant.
I look at my hands and feel detached
from the sensation of touch,
my mind unable to flex a fist
and these appendages moving
independent of my thoughts.
shadows criss-cross every road
in conjunction and relative
to location of the sun,
winking between the branches
becoming silhouettes, inverse lightning.
at night, the frogs are awake
and cacophonous, white noise,
an engine left to idle
where the air rests like a damp cloth
on my forehead to calm my nerves.
there's the moon oblivious to its phases,
to its many faces,
dropping its white halo
into the mist and fog,
creeping parade of ghostly caravans.
my mind is free again
to observe the minutiae
of light's give and take
among the pine needles
and foamy splashes along river's edge.
I'll purchases hiking boots
and a new guitar
like a premonition
of life's continuance
that the mountain refuses to notice.

Mike Breen had been out of Fordham University for what, to a young guy bursting with talent and passion, must have seemed like forever.
He already had spent 2-1/2 years working at a small radio station in Poughkeepsie, where his salary was so low he occasionally had to ask his parents for help paying his rent.
"I wouldn't ask a lot, but enough that I was tired of doing it," Breen said. "I said, 'I can't keep doing this.' ''
And after being passed over for a play-by-play job at Villanova he thought was his, Breen had had enough.
"I remember saying to my father, 'Get me the steamfitter's application,' '' he said. "It's time to start making some money.'''
But then Breen, who never wanted to do anything other than be a sportscaster, remembered a promise he made to himself upon graduating from Fordham in 1983.
"I was going to give it five years and see how I'd progressed," he said. "So, after talking it over with my parents, I said, 'It's only been 2 ½ years. Give it some more time before you become a steamfitter,' which is what my dad was.''
That's how close Mike Breen came to giving up his dream.
Tonight, he will be at AmericanAirlines Arena for Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the Heat and Thunder. It's the seventh Finals for ABC/ESPN's top NBA play-by-play man.
Not getting that union card turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to the 51-year-old Breen.
"It's such an honor, and it's still hard for me to believe I get to do this," he said by phone on the eve of the Finals. "It's beyond my wildest dreams, and I do think I'm the luckiest guy in the business.''
After deciding his steamfitting career could wait, things began to fall into place for Breen — who was raised in Yonkers, the fourth of five boys, all with a passion for sports.
"That's all we watched on TV. That's all we wanted to do," he said. "They made fun of our lawn in our neighborhood because there was no lawn. It was all dirt because that was the Wiffle Ball field for the neighborhood. That's all we did — play sports.''
There was also a radio station of sorts in the neighborhood.
"There was a guy who had his own little radio station in his basement," Breen said. "So after a hot day of Wiffle Ball, we would go hang out in his basement.
"The radio station would only [transmit] from the corner of his basement into [another part] of his basement, and we were the only people listening. It caught my interest and he let me — I'm 13 or 14 at the time — be the fill-in DJ.
"I loved the idea of broadcasting. So between enjoying that and wanting to play sports, that's when I think it started to formulate that maybe sportscasting could be a career.''
Breen, who parked cars at Winged Foot Golf Club in Mamaroneck to help pay for college, called Fordham "the perfect place'' to go to school.
"I had more air time when I got out of college than some people have in the first few years of their jobs," he said. "It was the perfect experience, the perfect learning curve.''
Not long after Breen renewed his five-year vow, WNBC Radio started a nightly sports talk show, hosted by legendary disc jockey Jack Spector. Breen, still working six days a week in Poughkeepsie, noticed the show was being produced by a Chris Doyle. He had gone to school with a Chris Doyle.
"I didn't know if it was the same guy," Breen said.
It was and a couple of months later, Doyle offered Breen a job producing Spector's show one night a week. Things snowballed from there. Two nights a week, then three. Finally, Breen could put Poughkeepsie in his rear-view mirror for good.
A gig as Don Criqui's fill-in on "Imus in the Morning'' opened more doors. Breen's work eventually caught the attention of the folks at Madison Square Garden. The network would acquire the Knicks radio and TV rights and Breen was named the host of the radio pregame, halftime and postgame shows. After one season, he became the radio play-by-play guy.
But it wasn't an easy sell. Breen's often-irreverent role on the Imus show was a source of concern to some in MSG's hierarchy.
"The late, great Chet Simmons, who was one of the founders of ESPN, was a consultant for us and he would ask, 'Do we really want the voice of the Knicks doing penis jokes [with Imus]?' " said Mike McCarthy, the former MSG executive producer who pushed for Breen's hiring. "And it was a fair question.
"There were definitely mornings when I would listen and shudder. There were a few gags that we had meetings about. But most of it was just cross-promoting the Knicks. Ninety percent of it was harmless.''
"Mike had to fight for me," Breen said. "I really didn't have any name. I was inexperienced. But he fought for me. He said, 'We want a young guy who we can grow with.' "
Grow Breen has. He moved to Knicks TV when Marv Albert was forced out following his 1997 sex scandal. Breen admitted he initially felt awkward about the way he ascended to the job, which he still holds.
"But I was OK when, about a week before the season, I got a card from Marv that said, 'Good luck. I know you're going to be great,' '' Breen said. "Two or three years later, MSG brought Marv back and I went back to radio, which I had no problems with.''
Albert would leave again following the 2004 season when his pointed criticism of the Knicks rankled MSG chairman James Dolan. Breen again would fill the void.
A few years later, Breen was doing a slate of NBA games for ABC/ESPN when lead play-by-play man Al Michaels bolted to join NBC's new "Sunday Night Football'' package. Suddenly, Breen was the network's No.1 NBA announcer.
"I've been so lucky," he said. "I hesitate to use the word lucky, but the Marv thing was such a big break for me. Even the Al Michaels thing, with NBC getting back football. … Some of my great breaks have come because legendary announcers had something occur. And that changed things.''
McCarthy, part of a group that recently sold its stake in the St. Louis Blues where he had been the team's CEO, has been a fan since Breen's days on Fordham's WFUV. He would listen on Sunday nights as Breen and others hosted what was then the only sports talk show on New York City radio. To him, it's more than luck that has brought Breen to the peak of his profession.
"He was born to do this," McCarthy said.

Attack announce departure of Strength and Conditioning Coach
The Owen Sound Attack is announcing the departure of Strength and Conditioning Coach, Andrew Hopf from the organization.
Hopf, who has been the team's Strength and Conditioning Coach since the beginning of the 2010-11 season, has accepted a role with the National Hockey League's St. Louis Blues while continuing to act as the University of Waterloo's Varsity Strength and Conditioning Coach.
"Andrew has been a tremendous asset to the Attack and we're sad to see him go," said General Manager, Dale DeGray.
"That said, the Ontario Hockey League is first and foremost a development league and we couldn't be happier that Andrew is able to take this next step in his career. He has done a wonderful job working with our players and has elevated the performance of each and every player that has stepped into our dressing room. We wish him nothing but the best moving forward."
Of the decision to move on from the Attack, Hopf said it was a bitter sweet moment for him.
"I'd like to take this moment to say how proud I am to have had the opportunity to work with such an amazing organization that truly cares about their players and personnel and also thank Dale DeGray, the ownership group, Andy Brown and all the coaches I've had the opportunity to develop under. To the players both present and past, thank you. Thank you for your commitment, your passion, patience and friendship. It was a true pleasure to make the long drive north every week and I will forever be greatful for the opportunity to develop as your strength coach."
"Owen Sound is a special organization and I'm a better person for being part of it", he added.
The Attack will now be accepting applications for the position of Strength and Conditioning Coach.
Those interested are encouraged to send a resume and a cover letter addressed to Dale DeGray before 5:00pm on May 25 at email@example.com.

Rev. Horton Heat
Interview by Dennis Morgillo
Reverend Horton Heat (aka Jim Heath)
Interviewer - Dennis Morgillo
What was your childhood like, growing up in Texas?
Rev. Horton Heat:
Great. I had great parents, family and friends. Every day there were kids in the yards and in the streets all up and down the block.
Who were the main influences on your guitar playing?
Rev. Horton Heat:
So many. Too many to name. I started out trying to learn Johnny Cash, BB King licks and Robert Johnson licks. Chuck Berry too. James Burton, Duane Allman, Then so many others. I played in a couple of rock bands that were pretty pro. When I really started focusing on rockabilly I focused on Scotty Moore, Cliff Gallup and Paul Burlison/Grady Martin. I love all sorts of players. Jimmy Vaughn and Stevie Ray Vaughn. Brian Setzer and Dave Alvin. Too many to list.
What was your first guitar and where did you get it?
Rev. Horton Heat:
It was a Stella that my parents bought me. I tried to play the solo on Folsom Prison Blues. I thought I was trying to play like Johnny Cash. Years later I realized that I was trying to play like Luther Perkins, his guitarist.
I heard that the name 'Reverend Horton Heat' was thrust upon you. That you did not pick the name and you were unhappy with the name at first. In looking back now, are you glad you stuck with the name? Did you ever consider pulling a 'Mellencamp', and changing to your given name - Jim Heath?
Rev. Horton Heat:
No. I ran with the name once I realized that people were coming to the show and calling me "Horton" or "Reverend"
What was the music scene like in Texas in the 1980s ?
Rev. Horton Heat:
Different than now. There were almost zero upright bass players. Besides the old guys playing jazz or bluegrass, there was Jim Wallace in Houston and my bass player in Dallas, Jack Barton. Music writers asked me all the time, "What is rockabilly?" Music writers across America asked me that just about every interview in the early days. Now, all of them act like they grew up with it.
What was the biggest gig you ever played?
Rev. Horton Heat:
We played with Soundgarden and Nine Inch Nails in Toronto. 32,000 people were there. Marilyn Manson was still kind of new and they played before us that day.
Can you detail your sound? What Guitars, Strings, Pedals, Amps, Rig etc. do you use?
Rev. Horton Heat:
I started using the reissue Gretsch guitars in about 1990. Now, Gretsch makes a Reverend Horton Heat model. RHH6120. It's got TV Jones pickups. I run through a volume pedal for steel guitar licks then into a delay/echo pedal to give me that fifties style slap back like Sun Records and Gene Vincent, but it's usually not as extreme as they used the effect. I go into a Gretsch Executive Amp that was made and designed by Victoria amps with reverb and tremolo. I used to use strings that were based on .11 high E string, then light top heavy bottom, but now I use .10s made by Dunlop. I also play a Smith Special that has heavier jazz type strings that have a wound third and are flat wound.
Based on your song lyrics, You appear to have a great sense of humor. What Comedians/TV Shows were your favorites as a kid?
Rev. Horton Heat:
Johnny Carson. Laugh In. George Carlin. Richard Pryor. Rodney Dangerfield. Music like Spike Jones, Roger Miller and the like.
One of my favorite songs of yours is 'Cowboy Love'. It's a great country song with hysterical lyrics. Did you ever get grief from fans who didn't get it? And what about now in our current Politically Correct environment. Do you get any grief now?
Rev. Horton Heat:
We've always been appreciated in places where you'd think they might be too PC. I used to do a faux sermon that was a parody of a hellfire and brimstone preacher who would heal various people. One of those routines was me healing Michael Jackson's chimp Bubbles. One time we played a college where a little group of busy bodies didn't like it, but the rest of the crowd loved it.
What was the craziest thing you saw while on tour?
Rev. Horton Heat:
I saw a bald eagle in Texas yesterday.
What's your favorite country to tour? and why?
Rev. Horton Heat:
The US is great because we're used to it. But we love the people everywhere we go.
Who was the coolest person you met? One of your heroes?
Rev. Horton Heat:
Carl Perkins told me stories for about an hour and a half. I've met Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Tiger Woods and Lyndon B. Johnson. Too many to list.
You have a reputation as a hard partying fun band. Have you slowed down?
Rev. Horton Heat:
Yes, we slowed down about twenty years ago because we wanted to focus on music instead of being party hosts. That decision is why we got better and are still here.
Are you into cars and motorcycles? What do you own?
Rev. Horton Heat:
I've got less and less time for hobbies. I've got a 1932 Ford. Not sure why sometimes as this band thing and my family consumes all of my time. The band thing takes way more work than people imagine.
Can we look forward to the memoirs of Rev. Horton Heat?
Rev. Horton Heat:
Not sure.
Do you have a new album in the works?
Rev. Horton Heat:
I'm always working on stuff. But right now I'm so busy that I can't see the new album coming within the year.
Do you ever see yourself retiring?
Rev. Horton Heat:
No. I'll do this until I can't do it anymore. I tell people I'm on the Willie Nelson retirement program. All of my heroes were that way - B. B. King, Ernest Tubb, Ray Price...all of them. I'll probably die on that tour bus.

We're looking for the ONE
Next week sees our flagship event, TNW Europe Conference take place in Amsterdam. With 2,500 people attending from more than 50 countries it is going to be the biggest event we ever hosted. We have several speaker formats (Trend, Grow, Boost to name a few) and today we're adding a new fresh format. We call it: ONE.
ONE talks, co-hosted by OneDrive, are short talks on the one topic you're really excited about. It doesn't have to relate to tech, startups or technology at all, it can be about anything. As long as it's the one thing you're really passionate about and you keep it short.
We will have between six and eight ONE sessions throughout the conference. If you have great presenting skills and want to rock the stage for 5 minutes, contact me and tell me what you have in mind.
Update: The first ONE speakers are already in. Teemu Arina is crazy about Bio-hacking, Evan Nisselson lives and breathes digital imaging, and Matt Ruby is all about humor.

the day i wished bedtime was at 5.
2 comments:
I always have a bad habbit of assuming everyone elses blogs that I read have the best life ever. That everything must be so easy for them. And because of this I start looking around me and questioning if what I have is good enough... I'm so stupid.ReplyDelete
I'm SO blessed with a wonderful baby and life. Things may be hard or not so pretty sometimes, but good grief, its life. I have to get over myself a lot.
I also make the mistake of assuming other people are good moms because they seem that way at first glance. But I'm truly learning what a "good mom" is. It's being the best you can be for you baby, but realizing when you need a break. That you AREN'T perfect and being able to accept that. Moms that exhaust themselves at being "perfect" aren't going to take the time to truly invest into their child's life. And they are going to eventually burn out.
I too had a bad day momma day the other day, after being puked on 4 times and one of those times all over my face, I began to wonder if I was going to loose it eventually. But gosh, all it took was for 5 seconds of my little Tobyn to cuddle up to me and give me a big hug to heal my frustrated heart.
All that to say, thank you so much for your honesty. Its genuine, and hard to find. And its much appreciated from one mom to another.
Keep strong.

Acts 20-27 English Standard Version (ESV)
Paul in Macedonia and Greece
20 After the uproar ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and after encouraging them, he said farewell and departed for Macedonia. 2 When he had gone through those regions and had given them much encouragement, he came to Greece. 3 There he spent three months, and when a plot was made against him by the Jews[a] as he was about to set sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia. 4 Sopater the Berean, son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and the Asians, Tychicus and Trophimus. 5 These went on ahead and were waiting for us at Troas, 6 but we sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we came to them at Troas, where we stayed for seven days.
Eutychus Raised from the Dead
7 On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and he prolonged his speech until midnight. 8 There were many lamps in the upper room where we were gathered. 9 And a young man named Eutychus, sitting at the window, sank into a deep sleep as Paul talked still longer. And being overcome by sleep, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead. 10 But Paul went down and bent over him, and taking him in his arms, said, "Do not be alarmed, for his life is in him." 11 And when Paul had gone up and had broken bread and eaten, he conversed with them a long while, until daybreak, and so departed. 12 And they took the youth away alive, and were not a little comforted.
13 But going ahead to the ship, we set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go by land. 14 And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and went to Mitylene. 15 And sailing from there we came the following day opposite Chios; the next day we touched at Samos; and[b] the day after that we went to Miletus. 16 For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not have to spend time in Asia, for he was hastening to be at Jerusalem, if possible, on the day of Pentecost.
Paul Speaks to the Ephesian Elders
17 Now from Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called the elders of the church to come to him. 18 And when they came to him, he said to them:
"You yourselves know how I lived among you the whole time from the first day that I set foot in Asia, 19 serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials that happened to me through the plots of the Jews; 20 how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you in public and from house to house, 21 testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.[c] 22 And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, constrained by[d] the Spirit, not knowing what will happen to me there, 23 except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me. 24 But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God. 25 And now, behold, I know that none of you among whom I have gone about proclaiming the kingdom will see my face again. 26 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all, 27 for I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God. 28 Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God,[e] which he obtained with his own blood.[f] 29 I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; 30 and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to draw away the disciples after them. 31 Therefore be alert, remembering that for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish every one with tears. 32 And now I commend you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified. 33 I coveted no one's silver or gold or apparel. 34 You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my necessities and to those who were with me. 35 In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"
36 And when he had said these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all. 37 And there was much weeping on the part of all; they embraced Paul and kissed him, 38 being sorrowful most of all because of the word he had spoken, that they would not see his face again. And they accompanied him to the ship.
Paul Goes to Jerusalem
21 And when we had parted from them and set sail, we came by a straight course to Cos, and the next day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.[g] 2 And having found a ship crossing to Phoenicia, we went aboard and set sail. 3 When we had come in sight of Cyprus, leaving it on the left we sailed to Syria and landed at Tyre, for there the ship was to unload its cargo. 4 And having sought out the disciples, we stayed there for seven days. And through the Spirit they were telling Paul not to go on to Jerusalem. 5 When our days there were ended, we departed and went on our journey, and they all, with wives and children, accompanied us until we were outside the city. And kneeling down on the beach, we prayed 6 and said farewell to one another. Then we went on board the ship, and they returned home.
7 When we had finished the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais, and we greeted the brothers[h] and stayed with them for one day. 8 On the next day we departed and came to Caesarea, and we entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him. 9 He had four unmarried daughters, who prophesied. 10 While we were staying for many days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea. 11 And coming to us, he took Paul's belt and bound his own feet and hands and said, "Thus says the Holy Spirit, 'This is how the Jews[i] at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.'" 12 When we heard this, we and the people there urged him not to go up to Jerusalem. 13 Then Paul answered, "What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be imprisoned but even to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus." 14 And since he would not be persuaded, we ceased and said, "Let the will of the Lord be done."
15 After these days we got ready and went up to Jerusalem. 16 And some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, bringing us to the house of Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we should lodge.
Paul Visits James
17 When we had come to Jerusalem, the brothers received us gladly. 18 On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present. 19 After greeting them, he related one by one the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry. 20 And when they heard it, they glorified God. And they said to him, "You see, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews of those who have believed. They are all zealous for the law, 21 and they have been told about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or walk according to our customs. 22 What then is to be done? They will certainly hear that you have come. 23 Do therefore what we tell you. We have four men who are under a vow; 24 take these men and purify yourself along with them and pay their expenses, so that they may shave their heads. Thus all will know that there is nothing in what they have been told about you, but that you yourself also live in observance of the law. 25 But as for the Gentiles who have believed, we have sent a letter with our judgment that they should abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled,[j] and from sexual immorality." 26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day he purified himself along with them and went into the temple, giving notice when the days of purification would be fulfilled and the offering presented for each one of them.
Paul Arrested in the Temple
27 When the seven days were almost completed, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the temple, stirred up the whole crowd and laid hands on him, 28 crying out, "Men of Israel, help! This is the man who is teaching everyone everywhere against the people and the law and this place. Moreover, he even brought Greeks into the temple and has defiled this holy place." 29 For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they supposed that Paul had brought him into the temple. 30 Then all the city was stirred up, and the people ran together. They seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple, and at once the gates were shut. 31 And as they were seeking to kill him, word came to the tribune of the cohort that all Jerusalem was in confusion. 32 He at once took soldiers and centurions and ran down to them. And when they saw the tribune and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul. 33 Then the tribune came up and arrested him and ordered him to be bound with two chains. He inquired who he was and what he had done. 34 Some in the crowd were shouting one thing, some another. And as he could not learn the facts because of the uproar, he ordered him to be brought into the barracks. 35 And when he came to the steps, he was actually carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the crowd, 36 for the mob of the people followed, crying out, "Away with him!"
Paul Speaks to the People
37 As Paul was about to be brought into the barracks, he said to the tribune, "May I say something to you?" And he said, "Do you know Greek? 38 Are you not the Egyptian, then, who recently stirred up a revolt and led the four thousand men of the Assassins out into the wilderness?" 39 Paul replied, "I am a Jew, from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no obscure city. I beg you, permit me to speak to the people." 40 And when he had given him permission, Paul, standing on the steps, motioned with his hand to the people. And when there was a great hush, he addressed them in the Hebrew language,[k] saying:
22 "Brothers and fathers, hear the defense that I now make before you."
2 And when they heard that he was addressing them in the Hebrew language,[l] they became even more quiet. And he said:
3 "I am a Jew, born in Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought up in this city, educated at the feet of Gamaliel[m] according to the strict manner of the law of our fathers, being zealous for God as all of you are this day. 4 I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering to prison both men and women, 5 as the high priest and the whole council of elders can bear me witness. From them I received letters to the brothers, and I journeyed toward Damascus to take those also who were there and bring them in bonds to Jerusalem to be punished.
6 "As I was on my way and drew near to Damascus, about noon a great light from heaven suddenly shone around me. 7 And I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?' 8 And I answered, 'Who are you, Lord?' And he said to me, 'I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting.' 9 Now those who were with me saw the light but did not understand[n] the voice of the one who was speaking to me. 10 And I said, 'What shall I do, Lord?' And the Lord said to me, 'Rise, and go into Damascus, and there you will be told all that is appointed for you to do.' 11 And since I could not see because of the brightness of that light, I was led by the hand by those who were with me, and came into Damascus.
12 "And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, well spoken of by all the Jews who lived there, 13 came to me, and standing by me said to me, 'Brother Saul, receive your sight.' And at that very hour I received my sight and saw him. 14 And he said, 'The God of our fathers appointed you to know his will, to see the Righteous One and to hear a voice from his mouth; 15 for you will be a witness for him to everyone of what you have seen and heard. 16 And now why do you wait? Rise and be baptized and wash away your sins, calling on his name.'
17 "When I had returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, I fell into a trance 18 and saw him saying to me, 'Make haste and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not accept your testimony about me.' 19 And I said, 'Lord, they themselves know that in one synagogue after another I imprisoned and beat those who believed in you. 20 And when the blood of Stephen your witness was being shed, I myself was standing by and approving and watching over the garments of those who killed him.' 21 And he said to me, 'Go, for I will send you far away to the Gentiles.'"
Paul and the Roman Tribune
22 Up to this word they listened to him. Then they raised their voices and said, "Away with such a fellow from the earth! For he should not be allowed to live." 23 And as they were shouting and throwing off their cloaks and flinging dust into the air, 24 the tribune ordered him to be brought into the barracks, saying that he should be examined by flogging, to find out why they were shouting against him like this. 25 But when they had stretched him out for the whips,[o] Paul said to the centurion who was standing by, "Is it lawful for you to flog a man who is a Roman citizen and uncondemned?" 26 When the centurion heard this, he went to the tribune and said to him, "What are you about to do? For this man is a Roman citizen." 27 So the tribune came and said to him, "Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?" And he said, "Yes." 28 The tribune answered, "I bought this citizenship for a large sum." Paul said, "But I am a citizen by birth." 29 So those who were about to examine him withdrew from him immediately, and the tribune also was afraid, for he realized that Paul was a Roman citizen and that he had bound him.
Paul Before the Council
30 But on the next day, desiring to know the real reason why he was being accused by the Jews, he unbound him and commanded the chief priests and all the council to meet, and he brought Paul down and set him before them.
23 And looking intently at the council, Paul said, "Brothers, I have lived my life before God in all good conscience up to this day." 2 And the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to strike him on the mouth. 3 Then Paul said to him, "God is going to strike you, you whitewashed wall! Are you sitting to judge me according to the law, and yet contrary to the law you order me to be struck?" 4 Those who stood by said, "Would you revile God's high priest?" 5 And Paul said, "I did not know, brothers, that he was the high priest, for it is written, 'You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.'"
6 Now when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, "Brothers, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees. It is with respect to the hope and the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial." 7 And when he had said this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly was divided. 8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor angel, nor spirit, but the Pharisees acknowledge them all. 9 Then a great clamor arose, and some of the scribes of the Pharisees' party stood up and contended sharply, "We find nothing wrong in this man. What if a spirit or an angel spoke to him?" 10 And when the dissension became violent, the tribune, afraid that Paul would be torn to pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him away from among them by force and bring him into the barracks.
11 The following night the Lord stood by him and said, "Take courage, for as you have testified to the facts about me in Jerusalem, so you must testify also in Rome."
A Plot to Kill Paul
12 When it was day, the Jews made a plot and bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they had killed Paul. 13 There were more than forty who made this conspiracy. 14 They went to the chief priests and elders and said, "We have strictly bound ourselves by an oath to taste no food till we have killed Paul. 15 Now therefore you, along with the council, give notice to the tribune to bring him down to you, as though you were going to determine his case more exactly. And we are ready to kill him before he comes near."
16 Now the son of Paul's sister heard of their ambush, so he went and entered the barracks and told Paul. 17 Paul called one of the centurions and said, "Take this young man to the tribune, for he has something to tell him." 18 So he took him and brought him to the tribune and said, "Paul the prisoner called me and asked me to bring this young man to you, as he has something to say to you." 19 The tribune took him by the hand, and going aside asked him privately, "What is it that you have to tell me?" 20 And he said, "The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the council tomorrow, as though they were going to inquire somewhat more closely about him. 21 But do not be persuaded by them, for more than forty of their men are lying in ambush for him, who have bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they have killed him. And now they are ready, waiting for your consent." 22 So the tribune dismissed the young man, charging him, "Tell no one that you have informed me of these things."
Paul Sent to Felix the Governor
23 Then he called two of the centurions and said, "Get ready two hundred soldiers, with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen to go as far as Caesarea at the third hour of the night.[p] 24 Also provide mounts for Paul to ride and bring him safely to Felix the governor." 25 And he wrote a letter to this effect:
26 "Claudius Lysias, to his Excellency the governor Felix, greetings. 27 This man was seized by the Jews and was about to be killed by them when I came upon them with the soldiers and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman citizen. 28 And desiring to know the charge for which they were accusing him, I brought him down to their council. 29 I found that he was being accused about questions of their law, but charged with nothing deserving death or imprisonment. 30 And when it was disclosed to me that there would be a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once, ordering his accusers also to state before you what they have against him."
31 So the soldiers, according to their instructions, took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris. 32 And on the next day they returned to the barracks, letting the horsemen go on with him. 33 When they had come to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they presented Paul also before him. 34 On reading the letter, he asked what province he was from. And when he learned that he was from Cilicia, 35 he said, "I will give you a hearing when your accusers arrive." And he commanded him to be guarded in Herod's praetorium.
Paul Before Felix at Caesarea
24 And after five days the high priest Ananias came down with some elders and a spokesman, one Tertullus. They laid before the governor their case against Paul. 2 And when he had been summoned, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying:
"Since through you we enjoy much peace, and since by your foresight, most excellent Felix, reforms are being made for this nation, 3 in every way and everywhere we accept this with all gratitude. 4 But, to detain[q] you no further, I beg you in your kindness to hear us briefly. 5 For we have found this man a plague, one who stirs up riots among all the Jews throughout the world and is a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes. 6 He even tried to profane the temple, but we seized him.[r] 8 By examining him yourself you will be able to find out from him about everything of which we accuse him."
9 The Jews also joined in the charge, affirming that all these things were so.
10 And when the governor had nodded to him to speak, Paul replied:
"Knowing that for many years you have been a judge over this nation, I cheerfully make my defense. 11 You can verify that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship in Jerusalem, 12 and they did not find me disputing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the temple or in the synagogues or in the city. 13 Neither can they prove to you what they now bring up against me. 14 But this I confess to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our fathers, believing everything laid down by the Law and written in the Prophets, 15 having a hope in God, which these men themselves accept, that there will be a resurrection of both the just and the unjust. 16 So I always take pains to have a clear conscience toward both God and man. 17 Now after several years I came to bring alms to my nation and to present offerings. 18 While I was doing this, they found me purified in the temple, without any crowd or tumult. But some Jews from Asia— 19 they ought to be here before you and to make an accusation, should they have anything against me. 20 Or else let these men themselves say what wrongdoing they found when I stood before the council, 21 other than this one thing that I cried out while standing among them: 'It is with respect to the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial before you this day.'"
Paul Kept in Custody
22 But Felix, having a rather accurate knowledge of the Way, put them off, saying, "When Lysias the tribune comes down, I will decide your case." 23 Then he gave orders to the centurion that he should be kept in custody but have some liberty, and that none of his friends should be prevented from attending to his needs.
24 After some days Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, and he sent for Paul and heard him speak about faith in Christ Jesus. 25 And as he reasoned about righteousness and self-control and the coming judgment, Felix was alarmed and said, "Go away for the present. When I get an opportunity I will summon you." 26 At the same time he hoped that money would be given him by Paul. So he sent for him often and conversed with him. 27 When two years had elapsed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus. And desiring to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul in prison.
Paul Appeals to Caesar
25 Now three days after Festus had arrived in the province, he went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea. 2 And the chief priests and the principal men of the Jews laid out their case against Paul, and they urged him, 3 asking as a favor against Paul[s] that he summon him to Jerusalem—because they were planning an ambush to kill him on the way. 4 Festus replied that Paul was being kept at Caesarea and that he himself intended to go there shortly. 5 "So," said he, "let the men of authority among you go down with me, and if there is anything wrong about the man, let them bring charges against him."
6 After he stayed among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea. And the next day he took his seat on the tribunal and ordered Paul to be brought. 7 When he had arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing many and serious charges against him that they could not prove. 8 Paul argued in his defense, "Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I committed any offense." 9 But Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, said to Paul, "Do you wish to go up to Jerusalem and there be tried on these charges before me?" 10 But Paul said, "I am standing before Caesar's tribunal, where I ought to be tried. To the Jews I have done no wrong, as you yourself know very well. 11 If then I am a wrongdoer and have committed anything for which I deserve to die, I do not seek to escape death. But if there is nothing to their charges against me, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar." 12 Then Festus, when he had conferred with his council, answered, "To Caesar you have appealed; to Caesar you shall go."
Paul Before Agrippa and Bernice
13 Now when some days had passed, Agrippa the king and Bernice arrived at Caesarea and greeted Festus. 14 And as they stayed there many days, Festus laid Paul's case before the king, saying, "There is a man left prisoner by Felix, 15 and when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews laid out their case against him, asking for a sentence of condemnation against him. 16 I answered them that it was not the custom of the Romans to give up anyone before the accused met the accusers face to face and had opportunity to make his defense concerning the charge laid against him. 17 So when they came together here, I made no delay, but on the next day took my seat on the tribunal and ordered the man to be brought. 18 When the accusers stood up, they brought no charge in his case of such evils as I supposed. 19 Rather they had certain points of dispute with him about their own religion and about a certain Jesus, who was dead, but whom Paul asserted to be alive. 20 Being at a loss how to investigate these questions, I asked whether he wanted to go to Jerusalem and be tried there regarding them. 21 But when Paul had appealed to be kept in custody for the decision of the emperor, I ordered him to be held until I could send him to Caesar." 22 Then Agrippa said to Festus, "I would like to hear the man myself." "Tomorrow," said he, "you will hear him."
23 So on the next day Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp, and they entered the audience hall with the military tribunes and the prominent men of the city. Then, at the command of Festus, Paul was brought in. 24 And Festus said, "King Agrippa and all who are present with us, you see this man about whom the whole Jewish people petitioned me, both in Jerusalem and here, shouting that he ought not to live any longer. 25 But I found that he had done nothing deserving death. And as he himself appealed to the emperor, I decided to go ahead and send him. 26 But I have nothing definite to write to my lord about him. Therefore I have brought him before you all, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that, after we have examined him, I may have something to write. 27 For it seems to me unreasonable, in sending a prisoner, not to indicate the charges against him."
Paul's Defense Before Agrippa
26 So Agrippa said to Paul, "You have permission to speak for yourself." Then Paul stretched out his hand and made his defense:
2 "I consider myself fortunate that it is before you, King Agrippa, I am going to make my defense today against all the accusations of the Jews, 3 especially because you are familiar with all the customs and controversies of the Jews. Therefore I beg you to listen to me patiently.
4 "My manner of life from my youth, spent from the beginning among my own nation and in Jerusalem, is known by all the Jews. 5 They have known for a long time, if they are willing to testify, that according to the strictest party of our religion I have lived as a Pharisee. 6 And now I stand here on trial because of my hope in the promise made by God to our fathers, 7 to which our twelve tribes hope to attain, as they earnestly worship night and day. And for this hope I am accused by Jews, O king! 8 Why is it thought incredible by any of you that God raises the dead?
9 "I myself was convinced that I ought to do many things in opposing the name of Jesus of Nazareth. 10 And I did so in Jerusalem. I not only locked up many of the saints in prison after receiving authority from the chief priests, but when they were put to death I cast my vote against them. 11 And I punished them often in all the synagogues and tried to make them blaspheme, and in raging fury against them I persecuted them even to foreign cities.
Paul Tells of His Conversion
12 "In this connection I journeyed to Damascus with the authority and commission of the chief priests. 13 At midday, O king, I saw on the way a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, that shone around me and those who journeyed with me. 14 And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language,[t] 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.' 15 And I said, 'Who are you, Lord?' And the Lord said, 'I am Jesus whom you are persecuting. 16 But rise and stand upon your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you as a servant and witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you, 17 delivering you from your people and from the Gentiles—to whom I am sending you 18 to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'
19 "Therefore, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision, 20 but declared first to those in Damascus, then in Jerusalem and throughout all the region of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, performing deeds in keeping with their repentance. 21 For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me. 22 To this day I have had the help that comes from God, and so I stand here testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would come to pass: 23 that the Christ must suffer and that, by being the first to rise from the dead, he would proclaim light both to our people and to the Gentiles."
24 And as he was saying these things in his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, "Paul, you are out of your mind; your great learning is driving you out of your mind." 25 But Paul said, "I am not out of my mind, most excellent Festus, but I am speaking true and rational words. 26 For the king knows about these things, and to him I speak boldly. For I am persuaded that none of these things has escaped his notice, for this has not been done in a corner. 27 King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know that you believe." 28 And Agrippa said to Paul, "In a short time would you persuade me to be a Christian?"[u] 29 And Paul said, "Whether short or long, I would to God that not only you but also all who hear me this day might become such as I am—except for these chains."
30 Then the king rose, and the governor and Bernice and those who were sitting with them. 31 And when they had withdrawn, they said to one another, "This man is doing nothing to deserve death or imprisonment." 32 And Agrippa said to Festus, "This man could have been set free if he had not appealed to Caesar."
Paul Sails for Rome
27 And when it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan Cohort named Julius. 2 And embarking in a ship of Adramyttium, which was about to sail to the ports along the coast of Asia, we put to sea, accompanied by Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica. 3 The next day we put in at Sidon. And Julius treated Paul kindly and gave him leave to go to his friends and be cared for. 4 And putting out to sea from there we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us. 5 And when we had sailed across the open sea along the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra in Lycia. 6 There the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy and put us on board. 7 We sailed slowly for a number of days and arrived with difficulty off Cnidus, and as the wind did not allow us to go farther, we sailed under the lee of Crete off Salmone. 8 Coasting along it with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near which was the city of Lasea.
9 Since much time had passed, and the voyage was now dangerous because even the Fast[v] was already over, Paul advised them, 10 saying, "Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives." 11 But the centurion paid more attention to the pilot and to the owner of the ship than to what Paul said. 12 And because the harbor was not suitable to spend the winter in, the majority decided to put out to sea from there, on the chance that somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, facing both southwest and northwest, and spend the winter there.
The Storm at Sea
13 Now when the south wind blew gently, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close to the shore. 14 But soon a tempestuous wind, called the northeaster, struck down from the land. 15 And when the ship was caught and could not face the wind, we gave way to it and were driven along. 16 Running under the lee of a small island called Cauda,[w] we managed with difficulty to secure the ship's boat. 17 After hoisting it up, they used supports to undergird the ship. Then, fearing that they would run aground on the Syrtis, they lowered the gear,[x] and thus they were driven along. 18 Since we were violently storm-tossed, they began the next day to jettison the cargo. 19 And on the third day they threw the ship's tackle overboard with their own hands. 20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned.
21 Since they had been without food for a long time, Paul stood up among them and said, "Men, you should have listened to me and not have set sail from Crete and incurred this injury and loss. 22 Yet now I urge you to take heart, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

OK someone needs to say this, the pricing is RIDICULOUS. Triple the price of the leading model? https://www.amazon.com/Compostio...
@kieran_danielsThe price issue is a good point, but maybe a lot more went into producing this one than the the other one. I mean, just from first glance, ZERA looks better and has an app. To me, it feels like a brand + a product, while the example give is just a product (not saying it doesn't get the job done, just comparing the two). That's why it costs more. I'm not saying I can afford it 😆, but I can see why the price for ZERA is more than your example.
@im_mimijae @kieran_danielsthe Well, for a "brand" that is starting off and don't have pricing power, it could be the reason why they fail. Afterall a brand is built over time, with consistency in delivering on their promises - this is still a no-name brand, where the early users are taking the risk. At the least they will have to match the pricing (call it introductory offer if they must) and over time, if the reviews are amazing, then they can always take off the discount and offer fullprice.
Interesting that this is being solicited via Indiegogo, but the site says it's a product of Whirlpool Corporation. So much for crowdfunding being used to launch small startups, now it's just an advertising platform for megacorps!
@iota I wonder if PH can have that info filled on the "Makers" section. I genuinely thought this was a startup. Honestly, this is why I am losing interest in PH. It is becoming another list of gadgets and products launched by big corporations who won't care what feedback you give them anyways. *le sigh*
@iota Yeah, I've been noticing that too! Bigger companies are looking to compete with the startups...
Kevin Guebert@kevinguebert · Working on https://harvy.app
This is a great idea to help combat food waste! $1200 MSRP seems...steep...to get into the whole sphere of it all. The site cites "The average family produces over 400 pounds of food waste per year" - how many average families can afford it though? 🤔😐

I'm looking for a dedicated program that works like Dreamweaver's Site Manager.
Basically you can define a "Project Site" and the Site Manager will build an index of all the pages as well as all the links inside the pages.
So if you rename a page, then all links that reference that page will automatically change.
Likewise, you can easily search for any keyword (and replace it) within that project site.
I would prefer a lightweight, dedicated-type software that just does that. I don't need it to edit the page or anything.
Also, ideally it would have a more robust grep-like features in searching as well, like using regular expressions and stuff.
Any suggestions?
Commercial software is fine, though I would prefer it to be under $100 USD.
Thanks for any suggestions!
1 answer
I think such a program doesn't exists. The features that Dreamweaver's Site Manager has to offer come with an editor or an IDE. Maybe trying another editor would offer a solution, take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_HTML_editors.

Tribulus terrestris is a plant that grows in many tropical and moderate areas of the world.
The current research indicates that the steroidal saponins, particularly the dominant
saponin protodioscin, are responsible for the pharmacological activities of tribulus.
Tribulus terrestris is a testosterone enhancer. It in-part blocks the receptors leading to the
hypothalamus misinterpreting the body's sex hormone levels as being lower than they
really are. The hypothalamus signals to start the production of Luteinizing hormone
(LH). When LH levels are increased, the natural production of testosterone also
increases. LH is a hormone that also deals with sex drive. Naturally contains over 45%
steroidal saponins. Meets Bulgarian state standard specification # ON 0273062-81.
Patented Bulgarian Tribulus (harvested for highest extraction yields available).
Available in 90 capsule bottles.
