(Full time) 2019 start
Philosophy and Theology and Religious Studies BA
From the nature of knowledge and reality to faith and its role in society, this varied and exciting degree explores the world's important questions and how people have tried to answer them.
Core modules will introduce you to the key concepts, approaches and issues in theology and religious studies, as well as great ideas, thinkers and the skills needed to think about philosophy. A wide range of optional modules across your subjects, will allow you to develop your understanding and focus on the subjects that interest you.
You could study specific traditions from Christianity and Islam to South Asian religions, or you could focus on areas such as sin, ethics, sex and gender, aesthetics, political philosophy, the history and philosophy of science and the roles that religion plays in public life around the world. It's an opportunity to gain a broad base of skills while gaining insight into some of the driving forces behind how people see and respond to daily life.
Leeds has great facilities for students of philosophy, theology and religious studies. The world class Brotherton Library holds a wide variety of manuscript, archive and early printed material in its Special Collections – valuable assets for your independent research. Our other library resources are also excellent, and the University Library offers a comprehensive training programme to help you make the most of them.
Course content
A Joint Honours degree allows you to study the same core topics as students on each Single Honours course, but you'll take fewer options and discovery modules so you can fit in both subjects.
You'll spend your first year taking core modules introducing you to the key issues, methods and approaches in studying philosophy and religion, as well as selecting from optional modules on topics such as the philosophy of religion, political philosophy or specific religious traditions from around the world.
From this knowledge base, you'll branch out over the next two years to specialise in some of the topics that interest you. You'll choose from a central philosophy module to study and then be free to focus on whichever area suits you, ranging from ethics, politics, the philosophy of science and feminist philosophy to the philosophy of religion. At the same time, you'll choose freely from a variety of modules in theology and religious studies such as Buddhism, the Hebrew Bible, sin and the links between faith and gender.
Throughout your degree you'll be expanding your knowledge base and developing your skills in research, interpretation and critical thinking. In your final year you'll be able to put them into practice, when you specialise in a topic of your choice to complete an independent research project.

Health and fitness has become an integral part of today's society with gym memberships and beauty treatments enjoying a soaring popularity. .
Looking good and maintaining a healthy body has never seemed more important. We are inundated with celebrities sporting glossy hair and sparkling straight white teeth in the media.
But the cosmetic side of good teeth is far less important than maintaining good oral health, even though many of us admit to visiting the dentist far less than we should.
It is never going to anybody's favourite pastime but a trip to the dentist really is vital and if it is fear for your wallet rather than your mouth that is keeping you away you might want to invest in dental insurance.
Taking out insurance can benefit you whether you have attend an NHS dentist or a private practice and since you might need dental treatment when you less expect it, it could be reassuring to know it won't leave a hole in your pocket.
As with most types of insurance, dental plans and fees can vary between providers. There are some available that will cover your entire family so if your older children end up requiring orthodontic work such as braces you could save a lot of money with insurance. Some dental insurance plans may have an annual maximum benefit limit and once you reach this limit any additional fees will be your responsibility. Good insurance providers will cover you for all routine and emergency treatment, dental injury and oral cancer care but you should always check what is covered before you take out insurance.
You will usually be able to start claiming for routine work such as check-ups, x-rays and scale and polish immediately when you take out your dental insurance.
The amount that you will receive from your provider when you make a claim will depend on the treatment you have received.
For instance, most providers will reimburse the full cost of NHS treatments but will limit the amount of private fees they will contribute.
Generally cosmetic procedures such as teeth whitening will not be covered by the cost of your insurance but you can rest assured if you have an accident and break your teeth or contract oral cancer most providers will cover the cost in full. So why not have a look at some dental plans, you never know the next time you need a filling it might not hurt quite so much.

A man named Donald Beall was the one who introduced me to the credit union movement. As president of NASA Federal Credit Union, Beall preached the credit union philosophy to his staff. Besides being a credit union evangelist, he was an innovator who espoused ideas like share drafts and shared ATMs. I started my credit union career under his mentorship.
Soon I was spending many hours in my car running from typesetter to printer and back again. Then I met Buddy Fielding, the graphic design director at a Northern Virginia engineering firm. When I met Buddy, I found a way to expand my services. I also found my future husband.
Buddy's company supplied designers, typesetters, a photographer with a darkroom, and office space. But soon we ventured out on our own, incorporating Visions, Ink. in August 1980. Our objective: to offer Washington, D.C.–area credit unions all we could under one roof.
We now enjoy fulfilling relationships with credit union people all across the country. We love helping them spread the word about credit unions.
While a lot has changed, we're still a one-stop shop for credit unions' marketing needs.
Visions remains family-owned. Three of our sons have worked here, as have two sisters and one cousin. And our dedicated, talented staff may as well be family. They're a great group of friends.
Life is good!

Mark Taylor edges his way onto the pier, listening.
He presses "record" on a hand-held microphone, and savours the noise of the moment: waves grate rhythmically against shore, birds sing in the Centre Island treetops, and a soft wind flutters across the water.
This will be his relic, Taylor explained later, a memoir of his trip to a city he's never seen, and never will, because he's blind.
"Recordings are my photographs," said the visitor from northern England, who wears ear muff headphones when he travels so he can hear his recordings. "Goodness knows how many moods and sways there can be on the water of an inland lake."
Taylor was in Toronto Wednesday with a tourist group organized by Traveleyes, a British agency that connects blind and visually impaired travellers with "sighted" companions on trips all over the world. This Canadian jaunt took the group from Quebec City to Niagara Falls, with many stops in between.
Amar Latif, who founded the company in 2004, said the idea is to help visually impaired people travel with relative independence, while affording sighted tourists discount rates and the chance to meet new people.
"I was blind, but I wanted to see the world," said Latif, himself operating with roughly 5 per cent of his vision after it gradually faded until he was effectively blind at 18, due to a condition called retinitis pigmentosa.
"Some of the (visually impaired) people might never have left overseas without their families," he said. "As the holiday goes on, their confidence grows, and that confidence, they take it back home and it reflects into their lives."
At Centre Island, the group decided to rent tandem bikes. As they explored, "sighted" tourists helped guide their visually impaired companions, describing sprawling lawns and rows of docked boats along waterways peppered with mingling geese and swans.
"None of these people knew each other before we went on the tour," said Latif, explaining how a "sighted" person and a "VI" — visually impaired person — are paired up each day. Traveleyes doesn't book a trip until at least half the participants are "sighted," he said, adding efforts are made to ensure sighted people don't feel they must cater to their visually impaired partners.
"You have to be able to compromise," said Jane Wilson, who was paired with Taylor on Wednesday. "It's a learning experience."
As a blind traveller, Latif said his impressions of the places he visits are formed by sounds and smells: accents in a crowd, the feel of the street on his feet or the drifting scent of coffee wafting out of cafes.
"Because I can't see, it heightens my curiosity," he said. "I sometimes have a more vivid impression of a building or something than a sighted person who would just glance at it."
Then, how does Toronto appear to a blind tourist?
"There's a hugeness about it that I can't really describe," said Taylor, who spent the previous day making recordings in the city's bustling, tower-laden downtown. "It's fast-paced, but also large scale."
"And," Latif added, "there's a friendliness in the air."
Guess they didn't make it to City Hall.

Burgundy and gold play off each other for warmth and luxury. Whether enveloping your theme in the two colors or merely using them as accents, they can be gorgeous for your best day ever.

Acer continues to expand the number of Chrome OS devices it offers, adding its first desktop model on Thursday. The Acer Chromebox CXI will become available in late September with a starting price of $179.99. Like its many Chromebook models, the new Acer Chromebox runs Google's Chrome OS software, a browser-based operating system tied heavily into Google's cloud services and apps.
The Chromebox CXI boots in less than eight seconds and wakes instantly, says [company]Acer[/company], just like the company's Chromebook laptops. It runs on an [company]Intel[/company] Celeron 2957U chip, based on the company's Haswell architecture, and includes 16 GB of solid-state flash memory for storage and 2 GB of memory. A $219.99 model bumps the RAM up to 4 GB. The small desktop is VESA-mountable and comes with a [company]Google[/company] Chrome OS keyboard and mouse.
Essentially, you need to add a monitor and web connection to get working with this Chromebox. It has all of the normal ports and interfaces you'd expect from a Chromebook: an SD card slot, four USB 3.0 ports, and dual HDMI / DisplayPort output jack. Like competing Chromeboxes from HP and Asus, the Acer model also has a Trusted Platform Module (TPM 1.2) for security.
Until now, [company]HP[/company] and [company]Asus[/company] were the main vendor choices for a Chromebox, although [company]LG[/company] does have its unique Chromebase: a Chrome OS computer built into a 21-inch 1080p monitor. I'm surprised Acer waited this long to enter the market, because it has quickly become one of Google's most successful Chromebook partners. By offering various models and configurations — different memory choices, optional touchscreens and other upgrades — Acer has become a top seller of Chrome OS devices, selling more than any other Google partner in the second quarter of this year according to data from TrendForce.
This post was updated at 7:19am to correct information about the TPM.

This is the incredible BMW M motorcycle concept from Jans Slapins. He's a 27-year-old 3D modeller who hails from London and likes to toy with automotive concepts. His latest creation is this fantastic piece of design.
We've previously seen a wild Lamborghini Rat Rod that he designed along with his friend Pawel Wisniewski, but this one is entirely a Jan Slapins creation. What makes the design so intriguing is the level of detail that he's added in order to make it look like something real, not just a bike that exists purely in his head.
According to Silodrome, there's a 1200cc twin cylinder boxer engine which puts out 115 horsepower along with inverted forks in the front and a mono shock, single-sided swing arm in the rear. It's a very futuristic, modern design that takes its cues from jet fighters.
It's not entirely of the future, though, as Slapins incorporated subtle details to keep the motorcycle from becoming too sterile. There are wooden fuel tank guards and the seat features diamond stitching that's more reminiscent of a luxury car than a jet-like motorcycle. It would definitely be quite the bike if BMW every made one even close to this concept. By: boldride

Welcome to Saint Catherine Church!
¡Bienvenido a la Parroquia de Santa Catalina!
Sacramental Preparation for First Reconciliation and First Eucharist is usually in the 2nd grade. All 2nd-grade students registered in St. Catherine School or St. Catherine Faith Formation are considered candidates for First Reconciliation and First Eucharist. Preparation includes class attendance, weekly mass participation and family engagement in community parish events.
Older children through the age of 14 are prepared through the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) program for Children. Adults participate in the RCIA program.
Prior to registering for Sacramental Preparation, children must be registered in Faith formation or attending a Catholic school and have attended faith formation classes for at least one year.
Faith formation classes are on Wednesdays (Grades 1-5), Sundays (Grades 1-8) and Saturdays (Spanish - Grades 1-8).
Registration forms are available online and at the Faith Formation office.
RCIA Adapted for Children
The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) adapted for Children is a process for children over the age of 7 who have not yet been baptized. It is modeled on the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA). In keeping with the current Church practice these children celebrate Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist.
Together with their peers, children in RCIA meet each week at 9:00 am on Sunday or 9:15 am on Saturday (Spanish) mornings. The initiation process works towards a deeper understanding of our faith and lays the foundation for continual faith formation. Children study the Sunday readings and prepare to celebrate the sacraments. Additionally, there are sessions for parents and sponsors. The RCIA for Children is available in English and Spanish.
ALL NEW Registrations must be done in person. Children new to the program will need to have a copy of the birth certificate on file.
For further information, please call the Family Faith Formation office at (408) 779-9604 or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Toy/Chaise by Iglooplay
We spied this fantastically unique piece last fall, before it went into production, and we're excited to see that it's now making its way into stores. Designed by Lisa Albin for Iglooplay, the Toy/Chaise is exactly what its name describes: part toybox, part lounge for the peewee set.
This design features several thoughtful elements -- from the slow-closing hinged top to the rounded corners -- that make it perfect for kids. It also features several thoughtful elements -- such as sculptural lines and clever storage -- that make it even better for grown-ups. And everyone should be happy that it's made using sustainably harvested wood and eco-friendly ply construction.

Wat Rajabopit Sathitmahasimaram
Rajaworavihara ( Wat Rajabopit )
is situated between Fuang Nakhon Road and Usadang Road ( Khlong
Ku Muang Derm Road ), near the Ministry of Interior. King Rama V
ordered its construction in 1969.
The phra ubosot, phra chedi and phra
vihara have curving walls that are covered with beautiful glazed
colored tiles. The doors to the phra ubosot and phra vihara are
inlaid with mother of pearl, the work of master craftsmen.
In the temple there are eight stone
pillars each surmounted with a covering of the Buddhist Wheel of
Law (Dhammachak), one of each of the eight directions, hence the
name "Mahasimaram" (Great Boundary Pillars). On the gate
shutters of the temple are carved soldier of the Corps of Royal
Pages attired in European - style uniforms instead of traditional
dresses. On the entering of temple compound of the front entrance
the phra ubosot, phra chedi and phra vihara can be seen raised above
ground level on a platform.
The exterior of the phra ubosot is
constructed in the Thai style. Inside the design is partly European
and partly Thai. It was decorated by M.C. Prawit Chumsai. On the
gable there is carving of a seven - headed elephant holding up a
tray containing a royal seal. The doors are inlaid with mother of
pearl design depicting the various royal decorations, the craftsmenship
of Prince Thiwakornwongprawat.
With in temple ground on the Usdang
Road side there is a royal cemetery which was ordered constructed
by King Rama V to make merit for his mother, wives, sons and daughters.
It consists of several repositories for royal remains in the form
of chedi, prang, and European - style building. These are set in
a small garden, which is open to the public.

Daddy's idea of an igloo developed into an awesome tunnel! Hurrah for a combined 10″ of snow this week!
That night Daddy was working overnight and Liam swore he saw an elephant out his window. So he ended up in bed with Mommy.
The Elmo trance. Affecting two year olds everywhere!
Liam was standing on his bed looking out his window after naptime. So many imaginative things take place outside that window.
Charlotte has a special attachment for her Grandpa Griffith. I think the feeling is mutual.
Charlotte turns seven months old this week. She no longer likes to be held or contained. She insists on scooting and crawling looking for anything to chew. I think her first tooth is on it's way!

The hosts were expected to have too much for the visitors at the weekend but a battling effort by Glenfin - particularly in the second period - nearly claimed them what would have been a deserved share of the spoils.
Kicking against a blustery breeze in Pearse Memorial Park in the opening half, Adrian Brennan would have been content enough at the interval as his side exited with their noses in front on a difference of 0-8 to 0-7.
However, just like Glenfin in that first 30 minutes, Ardara struggled to make that meteorological advantage count on the scoreboard after the restart. And when Jason Morrow crashed in the game's only goal seven minutes after the turnaround, Ardara were in serious trouble.
It was the first time that Glenfin had led in the contest and their resolve grew even greater heading into the final quarter as Ciaran Moy sailed over a free to stretch their new-found advantage to two. Ardara battled back to parity four minutes from the end thanks to a Brendan McNelis free and a Kieran Breslin effort from play.
But it looked like both sides would have to settle for a draw when Ryan Melly passed up a glorious opportunity to push Ardara back in front late on when he fluffed his lines from close range.
Still, Jimmy White let the play continue. And three minutes into the red, with both sides desperately scrambling for possession, it was Gareth Concarr that snatched the victory for Ardara as his pop from distance cleared the crossbar.
In a scrappy opening quarter, Ardara were two to the good inside the first three minutes thanks to overs from Tomas Boyle and CJ Molloy. Glenfin were off the mark soon after courtesy of a Mark McGinty Jnr. ping from distance. But with Boyle and McNelis adding a brace of frees things looked good for the home charges as they went five clear thanks to a Kevin White point after Paddy McGrath had sent him on his way.
Two Ciaran Moy frees closed the gap out to one on 21 minutes but with both sides posting three apiece between then and the break, it was Ardara that sat in the driving seat at half-time.
Tomas Boyle (0-2,2f) and Brendan McNelis (free) added to their personal tallies while up the other end, Moy was also on the mark from the placed ball with a brace of frees to go along with a Michael McGlynn over.
Indeed, McGlynn could and should probably have banged in a goal with that opportunity but his dink over the advancing Declan Gallagher had too much on it and it went over instead of under the Ardara netminder's crossbar.
Half-time: Ardara 0-8:0-7 Glenfin.
Like Glenfin before the break, Ardara didn't fare well kicking with the breeze despite claiming the first two scores of the new period through two more McNelis frees. But Glenfin made a huge breakthrough via that Morrow goal and the final 15 minutes were both attritional and frantic.
Moy and Morrow added points for Glenfin before the end but with McNelis (free) and Breslin replying for the hosts, it looked like this one would end in stalemate. But with one last throw of the dice Ardara's numbers came up thanks to Gareth Concarr whose point right at the death snatched the victory for Brennan's men.
Ardara: D Gallagher; S McLaughlin, S Gavigan, P Gallagher; K Breslin (0-1), K Herron, P McGrath; K Doherty,B McNelis (0-5,3f); K White (0-1), G Concarr (0-1), T Boyle 0-4,4f); R Melly, CJ Molloy (0-1), S O'Donnell.

For the first time EVER - Ubuntu will not load. It was working fine this morning, but since it will not work. I cannot get it past the initial security area where it asks for a password, but even then - it will not load it enough so that the password can be entered. I am not tech savvy, but I'd like to keep the previous files, and links - then reinstall Ubuntu back on the system. Ideally I'd like to wipe it clean but only have the Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop Edition Single Disc.
Can anyone help with a walk through?

This is the second of my RedBubble tees that I've received - it's a gift for a friend of mine who recently had a baby boy. He's not grown up yet like this exceptionally compliant cute model, loaned to me by his kind mum. 'Transport City' was one of the very first designs I created at RedBubble - I've always been quite partial to doodling detailed little cities and seeing this in real life has inspired me to make more.

Thanks Melissa! Redbubble and Zazzle are pretty different - I see Zazzle as more commercial, RB as more community-focused. I like keeping the different styles of my work in separate places too (mostly). Zazzle's definitely the most financially lucrative of the two!

Google Bid-Per-Call Announcement Validates Call Metrics
As evidence-based marketers, we strive for complete visibility. Though clicks can be an excellent way to prove the impact of marketing engagements, they are not without their limitations. For many B2B and B2C companies, a sizable percentage of conversions occur offline, via the telephone. Though we have used call tracking solutions with several of our clients in the past, we have observed, with frustration, that phone metrics appear to be underused and undervalued by businesses.
With Google's help, this may be changing. Google recently announced on their Adwords blog that they are introducing bid-per-call functionality in Google Adwords. This allows advertisers to bid for offline actions rather than simply online actions like clicks.
Google previously used a $1 flat rate click- to-call on ads with call tracking enabled. However, the call tracking enabled ads were only deliverable to smartphones. Google's new bid-per-call policy extends call tracking to any device. In addition, call tracking bids will have an incremental effect on ad placement. In other words, your bid-per-call will now be factored into your ad's visibility. This revolutionizes Adwords' auction dynamics. By bidding more on calls, brands may be able to accrue more clicks.
Is Google after more ad revenue? Of course it is. However, we can also view this as a sweeping validation of call metrics as a whole. Hopefully this will be a tipping point for call metrics that will incentive more brands to think seriously about call tracking.
In an effort to provide more thorough call analytics, Google is introducing two new call tracking metrics to the Campaign and Adgroup tabs: phone-through rate, and phone call cost. Whereas Google's previously introduced metrics (Call start time, call end time and call duration) focused on call quality, you can now track the quantity and expense of calls. This can help calculate the effect that offline engagements have on your ROI.
We hope that Google's bid-per-call initiative will catalyze the adoption of more advanced call tracking solutions. The best way to truly understand the impact that offline initiatives have on ROI is through integrating call tracking data into a CRM, where you keep sales data. Through CRM integration, marketers can compare clicks to calls and really see how offline marketing collateral performs.
Since your Overall Phone Quality Score will affect ad placement, we also feel that Google's phone metrics incentivize call center efficiency. It will become increasingly important for call center leaders to make sure that their phone centers are set up to offer optimal customer service. The Demand Results R&D team is currently hard at work creating a call metrics product that will help call center managers monitor efficiency remotely.
We hope to that Google's bid-per-call inspires businesses of all sizes to integrate call tracking into their marketing initiatives.

Meet the candidates for Alderman-at-Large from Newton's Ward 5 Brian Yates
As the longest serving member of the Board of Aldermen and a lifelong resident, Ald. Brian Yates knows a thing or two about Newton and its government.
Yates, who first took office in 1987, is a sixth-generation Newtonian. He said it's his experience on the board and memory of the changing ways of the city that make him the right fit for another term.
"One of the unique things I think I can say I bring is deep roots and institutional knowledge," Yates told the TAB last week.
An example of his experience on the board and in the city, Yates cited the role he played in establishing neighborhood branch libraries in Waban and Auburndale. He said his failed attempt to help establish a library in Upper Falls gave him the tactical knowledge to help those other groups, while his understanding of the village values pushed him to fight for the libraries.
Yates also cited his experience with the so-called "unbuildable lots" and his defense of residents who successfully challenged the city's policy change to grant building permits on certain older, vacant lots. He said he had institutional knowledge of a city ordinance preventing such permits, so he and Alderman Lisle Baker filed a court brief in support of the residents' appeal of the permits.
One of the most talked about issues in Ward 5 this year has been the failed Engine 6 proposal to establish studio apartments for the chronically homeless in Waban. To support affordable housing going forward, Yates said one of the most important things that can be done is to take steps to help maintain housing options for existing residents who are being priced out of the market and forced to relocate either due to financial or physical constraints.
He cited a discount he offered as part of the board that would offer decreased water and sewer rates for certain residents with financial constraints, and he suggested subsidized memberships to groups like Newton At Home, which helps seniors and others with physical constraints remain in their residences.
"I hate to see anybody forced to leave the city because either disability or because of lack of ability to pay," said Yates. "We do need to deal with that."
Yates said another focus of his if re-elected would be to bring the Main Street program of the Nation Trust for Historic Preservation to the city to help revitalize the village centers by forming grassroots partnership with businesses, residents and government officials.
One of the major looming issues in Ward 5 is the "add-a-lane" project on Route 128 set to get underway next year. Yates said he was wary of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation modeling in regard to traffic impacts. He said he was among those who put pressure on MassDOT to do traffic counts on neighboring roads before and during construction to better understand and manage the impacts.
There are limits on what the aldermen can do in a city where a strong mayor form of government, Yates said, but if he had his way he would like to see better coordination between the city departments and an increased focus on project management and leadership staff to oversee city projects.
Going forward he said he was looking forward to the first phase of a sewer water project spearheaded on the board by Crossley and Alderman Ruthanne Fuller to help ease fears of those living in the area of Quinobaquin Road who dealt with major flooding issues several years ago.
Alderman Marcia Johnson wrote in letter to the TAB editor, "Brian's accomplishments on the Board and as a volunteer leader in Newton have been remarkable."
Johnson called Yates a mentor to many board members and cited Yates' advocacy for limits on development, being a problem-solver for business development, his efforts to preserve Hemlock Gorge, his work establishing historic districts in several villages, and his leadership in making Newton one of the first official "green communities" in the state.
Calling himself a "zoning junkie" who has served on the Zoning and Planning Committee since he 1987, Yates said he wants to see the continued effort to reform the city's zoning ordnances. In particular he said he wants to see substantial map changes to residential zones to make land more conforming.
Another zoning reform he mentioned would be parking changes that allow village center employees to park at houses of worship just beyond the current restrictions during the weekdays in order to free up spaces for visitors to the commercial areas.

Mount Sinai
by Wayne Blank
"On the morning of the third day there was thunder and lightning, with a thick cloud over the mountain, and a very loud trumpet blast. Everyone in the camp trembled. Then Moses led the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain. Mount Sinai was covered with smoke, because The Lord [see Rock Of Ages] descended on it in fire. The smoke billowed up from it like smoke from a furnace, the whole mountain trembled violently, and the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder. Then Moses spoke and The Voice of God answered him."
"The Lord descended to the top of Mount Sinai and called Moses to the top of the mountain. So Moses went up and The Lord said to him, "Go down and warn the people so they do not force their way through to see The Lord and many of them perish. Even the priests, who approach The Lord, must consecrate themselves, or The Lord will break out against them."
"Moses said to The Lord, "The people cannot come up Mount Sinai, because you yourself warned us, 'Put limits around the mountain and set it apart as holy.'"
"The Lord replied, "Go down and bring Aaron up with you. But the priests and the people must not force their way through to come up to The Lord, or He will break out against them."
"So Moses went down to the people and told them." (Exodus 19:16-25)
"And God spoke all these words:"
"I Am The Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. You shall have no other gods before Me."
"You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, The Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate Me, but showing love to a thousand [generations] of those who love Me and keep My Commandments.
"You shall not misuse The Name of The Lord your God, for The Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses His Name."
"Remember The Sabbath Day day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to The Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. For in six days The Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them [see The Seven Days Of Creation], but He rested on the seventh day. Therefore The Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy."
"Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land The Lord your God is giving you."
"You shall not murder."
"You shall not commit adultery."
"You shall not steal."
"You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor."
"You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor." (Exodus 20:1-17 NIV)

Maria de Jesus de Agreda
Maria de Jesus de Agreda
by Richard Flint and Shirley Cushing Flint
In 1602, in the small town of Ágreda on the northeastern edge of the Kingdom of Castile in Spain, a remarkable little girl was born, María Fernández Coronel y Arana. From a very young age, she was extraordinarily passionate in her devotion to the Catholic Church. She became well known for ecstatic trances, during which she would become completely rigid. Her mother, Catalina de Arana, converted the family home into the Franciscan convent of the Immaculate Conception in Ágreda. In the beginning, the convent housed only María, her mother, and her sister. Her father went to live in a nearby Franciscan friary.
Professing as a cloistered nun of the Poor Clares, she took the name María de Jesús. By the time she was 25, sor María became mother superior of the convent. Years before, though, while still in her late teens, María de Jesús began a series of seemingly miraculous experiences involving Indians of New Mexico, whom she was never to meet in the flesh. Between 1620 and 1623, and continuing thereafter with less frequency, she was, as she herself said, "transported by the aid of the angels" to settlements of people called Jumanos. This she did without ever physically leaving Ágreda or even the convent. In a later interview, she told of having been in "another and different region and climate," where she preached to Indians who "understood her as if [her language] were their own."
As a result of these "flights," sor María had vivid memories of peoples and places that compared favorably with actual landscapes and inhabitants of the Spanish province of New Mexico. She herself did not profess to know the names of the places she had visited through "bilocation." But Franciscan friars of New Mexico concluded from her descriptions that she had "visited" Indians there.
Reports of sor María's visions seemed all the more miraculous when compared to statements made by Jumano Indians to friars in New Mexico. For several years running at the end of the 1620s, groups of Jumanos had appeared at the eastern outpost missions of the Tompiro pueblos and had spoken with fray Juan de Salas, the missionary visiting there from Isleta Pueblo. The Jumanos had repeatedly asked that he go to live among them and preach to them. They told about having been visited by a beautiful young woman dressed in blue robes, who instructed them to travel to the missions and ask that friars be sent to them.
Fray Juan dutifully relayed the Jumanos' request to the custos, or Franciscan superior, at the custodial headquarters at Santo Domingo Pueblo, fray Alonso de Benavides. Each year, though, fray Alonso would regretfully deny the request because there were not any friars in New Mexico who could be spared for a mission to the Jumanos, far out on the plains, hundreds of miles from the colonial settlements along the Rio Grande.
Then, similar requests came from Indians of Quivira, even farther away on the plains, also prompted by a visit from the "lady in blue." But the answer was always the same. No new friars were expected in New Mexico until at least the next mission supply caravan, which was not due until 1629, if it even arrived then.
When the caravan did arrive in 1629, it brought a new custos, fray Esteban de Perea, and a dozen additional missionaries. Perea also brought with him a letter of inquiry from the archbishop in Mexico City, who, in turn, was responding to a letter from sor María's confessor in Spain, Sebastián Marcilla. Padre Marcilla sought to learn whether the friars of New Mexico were aware of any evidence that would confirm sor María's visitations to Indians of their region. The archbishop directed the Franciscans of New Mexico to conduct an inquiry into this matter and report back. The friars were electrified by the seeming correspondence between the nun's stories and the reports from Jumanos of the "lady in blue."
With an enlarged cadre of Franciscans now in the province, it was possible to dispatch fray Juan, along with fray Diego López, to minister to the plains nomads. They left as soon as possible, traveling more than a hundred leagues (about 260 miles) to the east, which would place them somewhere in the Texas Panhandle or South Plains, according to the modern map. As they approached the Jumanos' settlements, the friars were greeted by natives of those settlements, coming toward them bearing crosses. They had been instructed, they said, by yet another visitation from the beautiful young lady. The friars remained among the Jumanos, ministering to the sick and baptizing, by their own claim, 10,000 people of all ages. Impressed by the magnitude of the mission work ahead of them, fray Juan and fray Diego returned to the Rio Grande to recruit more friars.
Meanwhile, another pair of clerics, led by fray Pedro de Ortega, the resident priest at Pecos Pueblo, made a parallel trip to Quivira. They reported having come within sight of that place, but without entering had also returned for ecclesiastical "reinforcements." Two years were to elapse before Ortega and Fray Juan set out again for the plains. But they did return, this time building a log church. Once again, fray Juan soon returned to the Rio Grande, while fray Pedro stayed on among the Jumanos. It was not long, though, before the natives became disaffected with the friar. One day they simply all packed up and moved away, leaving the friar and his log building alone. Fray Pedro either died of natural causes or was poisoned by members of the Jumano community; the surviving documents differ.
Years before this unfortunate end of the mission to the Jumanos, fray Alonso de Benavides had left New Mexico with the southbound supply caravan in 1630. At the time Benavides departed, the first two pairs of friars had just embarked for the plains, full of optimism. Thus, when the former custos arrived in Mexico City, he had astounding news to report: the work of the Franciscans of the custody of the Conversion of St. Paul in New Mexico was being divinely aided and supported through the miraculous intervention of the "lady in blue." Because of her, many hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Indian people were begging for conversion.
So inspiring were Benavides and his message that the provincial, or administrative head, of the order in New Spain decided to send him on to the Spanish royal court, with the hope of prompting additional financial support for missionary work from the king. Felipe IV and his councilors were amazed by fray Alonso's report of such astounding conversion success in New Mexico, as well as the seemingly manifest evidence of divine favor, in the person of the blue nun. As a result, authorization was made for support of 20 more friars for New Mexico. Furthermore, 400 copies of Benavides's formal, written report, or memorial, were printed at royal expense. That printing was soon exhausted, so that a second press run was authorized.
Anxious to confer in person with sor María, six months after his arrival in Spain, fray Alonso journeyed to Ágreda. With him he carried an order from the Franciscan general in Spain enjoining the young abbess to answer thoroughly Benavides's questions. Present at the interview in the convent, in addition to fray Alonso and sor María, was padre Marcilla, her devoted confessor. Already persuaded of the authenticity of the nun's miraculous visitations to New Mexico, Benavides's questions to her often assumed that she was, in fact, the "lady in blue." It is difficult today to read the queries and responses as an investigation of a possible miracle. Rather, they seem to serve as elucidation of an already established fact.
Fray Alonso later wrote: sor María "told me all we know that has happened to our brothers and fathers, fray Juan de Salas and fray Diego López, in the journeys to the Jumanas." María de Jesús mentioned other tribal names as well, but only that of the Jumanos matched names the New Mexican friar was familiar with. Nor have modern historians and anthropologists been able to identify those additional groups or even to confirm whether they ever existed. At the time, though, Benavides was thoroughly convinced that he was, indeed, speaking with the "lady in blue."
Her descriptions of landscapes bore remarkable similarity to what fray Alonso himself had seen during his tenure in New Mexico. "She brought them back to my mind," he wrote. Sor María also explained that although as a Poor Clare (affiliated with the Franciscans), she often wore their traditional gray habit during her bilocations to New Mexico; sometimes she also wore the blue cloth of Conceptionists. She was an adherent of the Conceptionist wing of her order. That is, she believed in the immaculate conception of the Virgin Mary, then a contentious concept within the Catholic Church.
After their interview, both sor María and fray Alonso sent letters to the Franciscan friars of New Mexico exhorting them to further work among the Indians of the plains. Three years later, in 1634, Benavides presented to Pope Urban VIII in Rome a handwritten, revised and expanded version of his memorial about New Mexico. In it, he included a summary of the 1631 interview at Ágreda. As it had elsewhere, sor María's story created a sensation in Rome, although not without some skepticism also.
Ever alert to religious charlatans and counterfeit miracles, the Holy Office of the Inquisition had suspicions about María de Jesús and her stories of bilocation to New Mexico. The Holy Office conducted an investigation, questioning both sor María and others with opinions about the case. In the end, nothing was found to impugn her story. Her exoneration by the Inquisition only increased the abbess' already considerable renown in both Spain and North America.
In 1643, Felipe IV traveled to Ágreda to speak with the now 40-year-old nun. As a result, the two initiated a regular correspondence by letter that was to last for 22 years, until they both died in 1665. During that period, the king visited sor María in person several more times. Her ecstatic trances continued. During them, she wrote a long treatise known as the Mystical City of God, which she said was dictated to her by the Virgin Mary herself. The book purported to be the autobiography of the mother of Christ, and it confirmed her own birth through the immaculate conception of her mother Saint Ann.
In the 1650s, sor María disavowed both the book and the stories of her earlier bilocations to New Mexico. She burned the manuscript of the Mystical City of God and announced that fray Alonso de Benavides and padre Marcilla had pressured her into confirming their version of events that she had envisioned while in trances. Reversing herself again, she rewrote the autobiography of the Virgin from memory. Five years after her death, it was published and became a very popular, though sometimes controversial, mystical text. María de Jesús never did reassert the truth of miraculous preaching to Indians in New Mexico. She remained steadfast that it had never happened and that her visions had been misinterpreted.
A century after her death, in 1765, Pope Clemente X initiated the process for beatification of sor María. That process has never been carried to completion. Clemente bestowed the honorific title of "venerable" to sor María. She is known today as the Venerable sor María de Jesús de Ágreda.

This morning's key headlines from GenerationalDynamics.com:
- World food prices jump another 10% in July
- Putin's spokesman criticizes Romney for toughness on Russia
- Money continues to flood out of Spain
World food prices jump another 10% in July
After a big jump in food prices in June, food prices soared by anadditional 10% in July, with maize and soybean reaching all-time peaksdue to an unprecedented summer of droughts and high temperatures inboth the United States and Eastern Europe. From June to July, maizeand wheat rose by 25 percent each, soybeans by 17 percent, and onlyrice went down, by 4 percent. Overall, world food prices rose 6%since July of last year.
Food price increases were not uniform around the world. Sub-Saharan Africa, in particular, experienced the highest priceincreases in maize, including 113 percent in some markets inMozambique. Meanwhile, the Sahel and eastern Africa regionsexperienced steep price increases of sorghum: 220 percent in SouthSudan, and 180 percent in Sudan, for instance. World Bank
Putin's spokesman criticizes Romney for toughness on Russia
Last week, China condemned Mitt Romney's 'Cold War mentality.' Now it's Russia, criticizing thissentence in Romney's speech: "Under my administration our friends willsee more loyalty and Mr. Putin will see a little less flexibility andmore backbone." Romney's statement reflects the increased nationalismamong the people of the United States, just as nationalism is alsoincreasing in China, Russia and other countries in a generationalCrisis era. The spokesman for Russian President Vladimir Putinresponded as follows:
During official meetings, both Moscow and Washingtonhave on different levels expressed their understanding that it isinadmissible for the bilateral ties to fall victim to pre-electiondebates.
As the Russian president has said many times, Russia is interestedand will continue to be interested in developing U.S.-Russianrelations.
Russia's response was far less harsh than China's. This reflects thedifferences in relationships between the three parties. To state itas starkly as possible for clarity, the Russians and the Chinese hateeach other, the Americans and the Chinese hate each other, butAmericans and Russians LIKE each other. Please excuse thisexaggeration, but this statement reflects the reason why Russia andAmerica will be allies in the coming Clash of Civilizations world war.Ria Novosti (Moscow)
Money continues to flood out of Spain
Capital outflows from Spain (WSJ)
Spain's bond yields (interest rates) had fallen from a panic-level7.5% down close to 6%, as a result of statements by the ECB recentlythat gave investors hope that the ECB would flood the markets withSpain as people transfer their money to foreign banks and saferhavens, including U.S. Treasuries, and so bond yields are risingagain, reaching 6.89% on Friday. Anything above 6% is consideredunsustainable, and anything about 7% is considered full scale panic.And "panic" may be the right word, as net capital outflows reached56.6 billion euros in June, and 219.8 euros in the first half of theyear.
Of Spain's 17 autonomous regions, three of them — Catalonia, Valenciaand Murcia — this week requested bailout money to keep them fromgoing bankrupt. Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy had set aside 18 billioneuros as bailout funds for all 17 regions, but these three need morethan half of the fund, indicating that the fund is too small.
If you listen to CNBC these days, you'll notice that all they talkabout quantitative easing or other forms of injecting "printed money"liquidity into the banking system. It used to be that they wouldtalk about this money going to stimulate economic growth, but there'sbeen a change in tone, and they don't talk about economic growth anymore, except to say that it's a few years off. There's no longer anypretense. They want move liquidity injection because that money willflow into the stock market, and their bankster friends will continueto justify their 7-digit salaries and bonuses. I don't even hear muchabout hyperinflation any more, as more analysts are resigned to thedeflationary spiral that Generational Dynamics predicted almost tenyears ago. Bloomberg and WSJ

text: Digital Alec Baldwin Teams With WNYC for Podcast By Jerry Barmash|October 13, 2011 Share By Jerry Barmash|October 13, 2011 Share Emmy-winning actor Alec Baldwin will host a podcast for WNYC called Here's the Thing. The show, which launches Monday, October 24, gives Baldwin an opportunity to pursue his passions and interests through various conversations. Those conversations could include newsmakers, actors, and public figures who spark his fancy. "As someone who has been the subject of innumerable interviews, I wanted to conduct my own and do them the way I liked them: emphasizing the positive, the forward-looking," said Baldwin. "And I wanted to do that show with WNYC." The first podcast features an interview with Michael Douglas and his battle with cancer. Other guests in the coming weeks include political consultant Ed Rollins and Chris Rock discussing his Broadway debut. New podcasts will be released every two weeks. The podcasts can be downloaded at www.heresthething.org or iTunes. "Alec Baldwin is the quintessential New Yorker – curious, funny, direct," said Dean Cappello, senior vice president, programming and chief creative officer, New York Public Radio. "And that's what he brings to every conversation in this series. This is a chance to hear the off-stage Alec in conversation with leading thinkers and entertainers. Here's The Thing will be one of the essential podcasts people download." Baldwin already has a presence on the radio scene. Since 2009, he has hosted the national program The New York Philharmonic This Week, which airs in New York on Classical 105.9 FM WQXR; like WNYC, WQXR is part of New York Public Radio.

Silage-making is once more upon us. Gordon and Dan worked hard and sorted out the gearbox on the newer of our two foragers, getting it ready for action last Thursday. The older one requires a pump originally sent off for repair in Scotland, but it came back with an incorrect shaft fitting so had to go again. Since then until today we've been mowing, foraging and rolling with the assistance of our other nephew Chris (Dan's younger brother). Despite him telling me it's ten years since the last time he graced us with his presence as a tractor driver it seems to have all come back to him and we're making very satisfactory progress. Yesterday was interesting with the addition of a drizzly rain for the best part of the day which made everything sticky and the failure of one trailer when we were almost finished. To add insult to injury and with just one trailer-load to go, the trailer I was hauling hopped off the hitch and buried itself in the ground which meant Dan had to rescue me with the loader. Today the boys have been making repairs so I've had a 'day off' to catch up on various things (like accounts, yuck!).
I've bought new glasses from Glasses Direct which I thought were very reasonable (they're not paying me for the plug, by the way). They're transition lenses so I've been driving the forager in them and realised that for the past couple of years I haven't actually been able to clearly see the pickup hitch! I've been able to catch it (it's an acquired skill from years of experience), just not able to see it. How weird that I didn't notice. If you ever need new glasses I can thoroughly recommend their website. They even send you glasses to try on at home before you put in your prescription details and choose frames. Should you fancy trying a pair, let me know – I have discount codes and if you're recommended by someone you get £30 off, plus I get an Amazon voucher.
Both Gordon and I have been gardening this year. Gordon has finally found the enthusiasm for more than just mowing the lawn and is nurturing tomatoes, peppers and melons in the greenhouse.
He spends ages out there watering, feeding and 'pinching-out'. Since I've been struggling to do this single-handedly for years due to his complete lack of interest, this amuses me very much, but I let him get on with it.
I've planted lots of herbs and random bits of plants I've been cultivating in various pots and tubs, including this tin bath we found when sorting out Gordon's mother's greenhouse.
My enclosed raised beds are doing very well and for once I'm able to grow things the cats can't get to. We refer to it as 'the safe house' although someone did call it 'Gordon's splendid garden erection' the other day which made us laugh.
Radishes and beetroot. We've been eating the radishes for a while, but the beetroot aren't ready yet. It's nice to be able to keep them in the ground without something digging them up. If it isn't the cats then the foxes will usually have a scratch around to see if they can eat it.
Our woodpecker is back for the peanuts and this time he/she has brought a youngster who sits on top the archway waiting to be fed. Every time they're both there I run for my camera but haven't been able to catch them together, which is a shame. Look at those claws though.

THE BRASS TEAPOT Trailer and Poster
The first trailer and poster for Ramaa Mosley's The Brass Teapot are now online. The upcoming quirky, dark comedy stars Michael Angarano (Haywire) and Juno Temple (Killer Joe) as a young married couple beaten down by life who soon discover that if they have to suffer why not do it for cash.
The two find themselves in need of financial assistance when Alice discovers a magical brass teapot that shoots out cash whenever she and her husband hurt themselves.
It starts with Brazilian waxes, dentist visits, and tattoos, but quickly devolves into something more dangerous as screenwriter Tim Macy is also presenting the comedy as a commentary on materialism and what drives people to want more.
Temple told ComingSoon.net:
I like scripts with a moral and that's a great message to send that money doesn't make you happy. It really doesn't. That's what that script is about and it was great fun to shoot. I go from being very, very poor to very, very rich and some of the costumes are very cool.
The film also stars Alexis Bledel, Alia Shawkat, Bobby Moynihan, Debra Monk, Billy Magnussen, Stephen Park comedian Matt Walsh and Lucy Walters.
Magnolia Pictures, who acquired The Brass Teapot last fall after it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, will release the film on iTunes February 28th and in selected theaters April 5th, 2013.
Here's the official synopsis:
John and Alice live in small-town America—20s, married, very much in love, and broke. Once voted "most likely to succeed," Alice struggles to make ends meet while her friends enjoy the good life. Her husband John, neurotic and riddled with phobias, just wants to get the bills paid. But an accident leads them to a roadside antique shop where Alice is spontaneously drawn to a mysterious brass teapot. It isn't long before they realize that this is no ordinary teapot and that perhaps they have found the answer to all of their financial woes… THE BRASS TEAPOT is a magical dark comedy that reminds us to be careful what we wish for.

Night Owls for Fall
2 comments:
Hi there! I just 'discovered' your blog via a post I saw on Pinterest and I am thrilled with your beautiful ideas! Just a quickie: what are 'construction paper crayons'? Are they different from 'regular' wax crayons? I am not in the US, so just need to understand what to look for here on the other side of the world :-)ReplyDelete
Yay for new discoveries! Thanks for peeking in. I LOVE construction paper crayons.ReplyDelete
They are designed to be used on darker color paper. With normal crayons,
Sometimes when you have purple paper for instance, you use a yellow crayon and it looks brown. Construction paper crayons eliminates that mix and glides on the paper over the dark. It only comes in a limited amount of colors, but it is the colors you need that will cover. Crayola makes them. Have fun!

Makoto Raiku is the Japanese Mangaka whose works have appeared in Shonen Sunday and Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine. He started out as an assitant for Kazuhiro Fujita, working on Ushio and Tora, and eventually began publishing his own works.
- Animal Land
- Aosora
- Bird Man
- Class Room
- Genmai Blade
- Grief Warrior Hero Ba-Ban
- Newtown Heroes
- Oyaju Rider
- Vector Ball
- Zatch Bell!!
Tropes associated with Raiku:
- Animalistic Abomination: Raiku showed a slight interest in drawing giant scary monsters in Zatch Bell, and went on to draw more in that series' Gaiden chapter and his horror one-shot "Class Room". This interest blossomed into fascination in Animal Land, which is chock full of huge creepy things.
- Art Evolution: The change between Zatch Bell and Animal Land is amazing.
- And then it goes straight back into the weird style used to have, in Vector Ball.
