Easy to grow in moderately temperate climates, there are those of us in hot areas of the country, including desert climates [1], that yearn for fresh strawberries plucked dewy and sweet from our own backyard. Strawberry growing in hot weather, where the daytime temperatures are more often than not over 85 F. (29 C.) is possible with a bit of preparation and planting at the correct time of year.
The trick to growing strawberries in hot climates is to have the berries ready for picking in mid-winter, not late spring or early summer as is common in temperate zones. Keep in mind that strawberries take four to five months of growth before they are ripe for harvest and well-established plants are the most prolific producers.
So, the question stands, "How to grow strawberries in high heat?" When combining strawberries and hot summer climates, set the new plants late in the summer to allow time to establish during the cooler months so the berries are ripe in midwinter. In the northern hemisphere, that would mean setting starts in September for harvest in January. Strawberries flower and fruit in cool to warm temps (60-80 F. or 16-27 C.), so spring planting of strawberries [2] in hot summer climates is doomed to fail.
Strawberries may be hard to come by in late summer, as nurseries do not usually carry at that time. Therefore, you may need to prevail upon friends or neighbors who have established plants to garner starts.
Set the plants in compost-rich, well-draining soil, [3] taking care not to set the crown of the start too high or it may dry out. Water in well and adjust the plants if they settle too much. Set strawberry plants 12 inches (30 cm.) apart to allow the runner to fill in space.
Care of the plants is of vital importance when strawberry growing in hot weather. Keep the soil uniformly moist; if the leaves turn pale green, you are likely overwatering. Twelve inches (30 cm.) of water saturation is sufficient, but then allow the soil to dry for a few days.
If you set the plants in lots of compost, there is little likelihood they will need additional fertilizer. If not, use a commercial fertilizer that is rich in potassium [4] and follow the directions to avoid overfeeding.
Once the weather cools, cover the bed with portable plastic sheeting about 4-6 mm thick, either set over a frame of half hoops or wire mesh. The berry plants can withstand a couple of nights of frost but no more. Ventilate the covering on warm days by opening the ends and placing a tarp or blanket over it on freezing nights to retain heat.
During the harvesting [5] months of mid-winter to late spring, spread straw around the plants to keep the forming berries clean, allow air circulation and retain water. Pick your strawberry bounty when the berries are uniformly red but not soft. If the berries are a bit white at the end, pick them anyway since they will continue to ripen for a few days once picked.
In the summer when temps soar, it is a good idea to shade the strawberry patch to prevent drying out or burning of foliage. Simply replace the plastic sheeting with 65 percent shade cloth, cover with straw or even build a fence or plant other plants nearby that will shade the berries. Maintain a watering schedule and allow drying between watering.
Lastly, when attempting to grow strawberries where temperatures climb, you can try growing the berries in a container [6]. Be sure to select a container that is deep enough for the roots (12-15 inches or 30.5-38 cm.), water regularly, and feed each week with high potassium, low nitrogen fertilizer [7] once they begin to flower.
Planting in containers allows control over sun exposure and temperature, allowing you to freely move the plants to more sheltered locations.

[12] Herodotus, "Euterpe," sec. As regards the wergeld, we may consider the terms ceorl and freeman as practically interchangeable, inasmuch as every ceorl was certainly a freeman, and the unmarried freeman was probably a cadet or member of the household of some eorlisc or ceorlisc man. He had to appeal to the higher faculties of the soul,—to that deep and innate sensibility to truth and beauty, which required only fit objects to have its enthusiasm excited,—and to that independent strength of mind, which, in the midst of ignorance and barbarism, hailed and fostered genius whereever it met with it. Everything takes on a tinge of fantastical absurdity. He becomes, as we have seen according to the scanty evidence of the Laws of Ine, a king's gesith, with military and judicial and administrative duties to discharge, put into a post of service which he cannot relinquish at pleasure. And evidence of the accord of Scandinavian with other tribal custom on this point is not without value. It is the same in the back of the Theseus, in the thighs and knees, and in all that remains unimpaired of these two noble figures. If the modulus of the single errors is c, that of the average of n of these will be c ? Anno domini M.cccc.lxxxviii. If paid in specie, one third must be paid in silver, and of gold of the size of the crown of the head, and also the like in precious stone of the size of an eye. The first of these are, in our opinion, by much the best; and we appeal, in support of this opinion, to the _Apollo and the Seasons_, and to the _Phaeton_. And the necessity of this oblivion is strengthened by the shortness of our life. This I have written in the midst of a term and parliament; thinking no time so possessed, but that I should talk of these matters with so good and dear a friend. Instead of absolutism, you have a feudal system. Well—_better late than never!_ This same portrait is not, we think, the truest specimen of Vandyke. Short-lived as we are, let us attach ourselves to the immortal, and scale (assisted by earth's giant brood) the empyrean of pure thought! Hence we see that in a certain sense we may still say here that the future was prefigured in the present; but it must be added that this prefiguring is very imperfect, since the future action of which we have the present idea is conceived as realizable but not as realized, and since, even when we plan the effort necessary to accomplish it, we feel that there is still time to stop. "From Gray's Inn, Feb. The Rape of the Sabines, by John of Bologna, near Benvenuto's Perseus, is an admirable group: nothing can exceed the fleshiness and softened contours of the female figure, seen in every direction. V. The issue of dryden s an essay on dramatic poesy so auspicious a match is left, in _The Tempest_, as in the _Conference of Pleasure_, to the imagination. Now contrast with them any of the uniformities afforded by games of chance; these latter seem to show no trace of secular fluctuation, however long we may continue our examination of them. In short, Hogarth was a painter of real, not of low life. Edward Clay, with a twig of oak stuck in his hat is on the bank of the little lake, feeding the water-fowl.
As said above, Longstreet's assault is almost invariably spoken and written of as "Pickett's charge." This name and all the name implies, is what I shall protest against in this article. This, of course, would render the prophetic religion agreeable to the people, and so must have contributed to make it the religion of Israel. The answer that would usually be given to it, though substantially correct, is somewhat too decisive and summary. _De Alodis_. of A. In other words, as we remarked above, each of the units with which we form the number 3 seems to be indivisible _while_ we are dealing with it, and we pass abruptly from one to the other. The Austrians, it is said, have lately attempted to strike the name of Italy out of the maps, that that country may neither have a name, a body, or a soul left to it, and even to suppress the publication of its finest historians, that it may forget it ever had one. [Sidenote: _Character of a Coffee-House Politician._] He is one whose Brains having been once over-heated, retain something of the Fire in 'em ever after. And how shall he be reconciled with self-renunciation? boca dom se ? [Sidenote: Number in process of formation is discontinuous, but, when formed, is invested with the continuity of space.] For dryden s an essay on dramatic poesy we must understand what is meant by the of number. Far from the quantity of our belief being so exactly adjusted in conformity with the facts to which it refers that we cannot even in imagination go astray, we find that it frequently exists in excess or defect of that which subsequent judgment will approve. _GENERAL CONCLUSIONS._ [Sidenote: Bearing of the results upon the division of classes and the character of holdings.] Before concluding this Essay it may be well in a final chapter to consider its results in their bearing upon the conditions of early Anglo-Saxon society, and especially with regard to the division of classes and the character of the holdings. " " ? Under tribal custom, in Wales, it arose out of coaration of portions of the waste or pasture by the common plough-team to which the tribesmen or the taeogs, as the case might be, contributed oxen. It is a pity, because the Latin found in colophons is often far from classical, and occasionally so difficult that our renderings will be offered in fear and trembling. This would produce two distinct and large masses in the picture; which answers to the conditions of what is called the grand style of composition. Nam ille ingenio litteraturaque non mediocri dotatus: et tali exercitio inter caeteros excultissimus est. The event of his contending with Apollo in music affords us a useful instruction, that may help to humble the human reason and judgment, which is too apt to boast and glory in itself. For their co-existence to give rise to space, there must be an act of the mind which takes them in all at the same time and sets them in juxtaposition: this unique act is very like what Kant calls an _a priori_ form of sensibility. Do not therefore, impelled by the sting of malice, rage against the compiler with the small satirist's fang of correction; but rather, not ungrateful for a benefit, turn to the offerings before you the dovelike eyes of discretion. The conditions were not unpromising. A conclusion which explains so much, and has probability so greatly in its favour, may fairly be accepted. "When hearts, not wholly cooled Of their potential fires, Fought hard with life severe, and with the truth, "And to the valiant thinking And courageous hope Faith and true love lent arms of constancy,— "Then, from my airy seat descending, Among these gallant souls I came, Kindled and kept alive their ardent zeal; "And, faithful to my champions, Clasped in their mighty embrace, I made them worship Death—yea, and Defeat, "While, traced by dreamy souls In verse and colours, I wandered through the laurels on Arno's banks. As far as attitude or action is concerned, it is mere _still-life_; but the look is of that kind that goes through you at a single glance. In other words, if the large and growing body of readers who can find pleasure in the study of books like Mill's _Logic_ and Whewell's _Inductive Sciences_, turn with aversion from a work on Probability, the cause in the latter case must lie either in the view of the subject or in the manner and style of the book. Perfection reigns only in God. Thus, within our ego, there is succession without mutual externality; outside the ego, in pure space, mutual externality without succession: mutual externality, since the present oscillation is radically distinct from the previous oscillation, which no longer exists; but no succession, since succession exists solely for a conscious spectator who keeps the past in mind and sets the two oscillations or their symbols side by side in an auxiliary space. Sedley, Edmund Waller, Rochester, and the Roscommon of "unspotted lays," were in no need of encouragement; but it would have befitted Charles to do something for the others, before it was too late. If a parallel must be found for it, it is more like Genoa shoved into the sea. dryden s on dramatic poesy an essay.
In speaking of the effect of the average in thus diminishing the irregularities which present themselves in the details, the attention of the student must be prominently directed to the point, that it is not the _absolute_ but the _relative_ irregularities which thus tend to diminish without limit. At first sight the Wessex payments for the eye, hand, and foot present an anomaly. Let us go: in the acts and the smiles Of my Delia still do the Graces Reveal themselves, as of old Cephisus beheld them. Where then, I ask you, is beauty and serenity? to the wrong party," suggests the misunderstanding in question. It is their vocation to make a thronged spiritual solitude of their own. Love is represented absolutely without progenitor, excepting only that he is said to have proceeded from the egg of Nox; but that himself begot the gods, and all things else, on Chaos. This referred to the purely intellectual part of belief which cannot be conceived to be separable, even in thought, from the things upon which it is exercised. Mainz: Fust and Schoeffer, 1462.] It was said at the end of our first chapter dryden s an essay on dramatic poesy that the presence of a colophon in an old book is to be taken as a sign of its printer's pride in his work. It would appear, however, to have been different during the heroic age, when the intercourse between husband and wife, says Mr. [148] Rawlinson's "History of Herodotus," vol. This product of Pagan mysticism was exactly what it needed at the time. Si quis judicio fuerit competitus et pr?stando verum durus esse voluerit et ipsam intentionem fuerit interfectus, ancillas II. ¶ Si vn seit occis en la pees al fiz dun thain · ili a feit · xxvi · [· _xl_ ·] vac?c. "Change upon change: yet one change cries out to another, like the alternate seraphim, in praise and glory of their Maker." The human atom gets into the mood of the according leaf, caring not how long it has hung there, how soon it may fall. To ask such a question is to admit the possibility of adequately representing time by space and a succession by a simultaneity. [G. The ten commandments, in their simplest form, are generally admitted to be relics of the Mosaic age. Col. The idea of the future, pregnant with an infinity of possibilities, is thus more fruitful than the future itself, and this is why we find more charm in hope than in possession, in dreams than in reality. It is a distinction not worth the making.

Biomolecular simulations are computationally expensive. This limits their application in protein folding simulations, protein engineering, drug design and related fields. Enhanced sampling techniques such as metadynamics accelerates slow events in molecular simulation. This and other method apply artificial forces in directions of collective degrees of freedom (aka collective variables). Path collective variables and Property Map collective variables are defined using a series of reference structures of the studied molecular system. They require a huge number of mean square deviation calculations along the simulation. Close Structure algorithm reduces the number of these operations.

This beautiful setting for 6 people is in lovely condition. The set is in the design called Blue Fan and was designed by Arnold Krog in 1909. This particular set was made in the 1960's.
The pattern has a raised self pattern which is pretty and elegant. The rim is a delightful pale blue contrasting beautifully with the white centre. The cups have a darker blue bow below the handles.
There are 24 pieces in this set. 6 large dinner plates (shape 11579) measuring 252mm across, 6 side plates (shape 11521) measuring 195mm across and a mocha or coffee cup and saucer (shape 11548).
Most of the pieces are scored through the back stamp indicating they are factory seconds. The reason for the seconds marking is unclear as the pieces appear perfect to us. It may be that the colour to the blue varies slightly.
Shipping can be arranged with prices starting at around $120.

Those formerly in the fence about getting a Fitbit Ionic smartwatch will have a brand new model to think about.
Fitbit unveiled Adidas today—the Ionic Adidas Edition to its device collaboration is a spiced-up Ionic smartwatch featuring an Adidas-made watch face, special wristbands, and the Adidas Train app for runners. Similar to the Apple Watch Nike+ edition, this version of Fitbit's smartwatch combines all of the features of the original Ionic with exclusive perks developed in collaboration with Adidas that users can't get on any other model that is ionic
The Adidas Edition's instance is the same as that a typical Ionic, however the previous comes preloaded with a brand new watch that is adidas-made with the company's logo at the top, huge block-like numbers for the time in the middle, and a bottom stats row featuring steps taken, current heart rate, and the date. Exclusive bands for the Adidas Edition are available as well, both of which have many holes that are small the musical organization's whole area. Most of these perforations enable more atmosphere to feed toward epidermis, reducing the likelihood of epidermis discomfort during very long periods of good use. These bands may also be swim-ready, making them a option that is good outfit the Ionic with before tracking a swim.
Adidas developed a workout app for the Ionic that's only available on its collaboration devices. The Adidas Train app has six guided workouts, all related to running, that users can follow any right time by utilizing simply the Ionic's display. The six routines concentrate on different facets of operating: Metabolic is targeted on increasing rate and metabolic rate, Strong Strides works on power, energy speed increases effectiveness and freedom, and so forth.
It's disappointing that of Adidas' exclusive exercises concentrate on operating, but i am maybe not astonished which they do. Operating could be the standard workout for non-tech businesses to embrace (specially attire businesses that design and sell footwear), and fitness wearables that are most prioritize running above other activities since it's easily trackable with accelerometers, GPS sensors, and other tech.
Nike's Run Club app—pre-installed on the Apple Watch Nike+ edition—similarly focuses on running, but it doesn't have the kind that is same of exercises. While If only Adidas' pre-fab routines had been more diverse, i am very happy to see Adidas value that is adding the Ionic in the form of guided workouts. The Ionic that is regular smartwatch but a small number of guided routines given by Fitbit, but the majority exercises lie behind Fitbit Coach's paywall. People who choose the Ionic Adidas Edition have both Fitbit's and Adidas' pre-loaded routines that are guided giving them more workouts to follow along using the device's display.
But customers will pay for those extra workouts and other exclusive features: the Fitbit Ionic starts at $329, or $29 more expensive than a regular smartwatch that is ionic. Everything Adidas—including the view faces, the bands that are exclusive and the Adidas Train app—are only available on the Ionic Adidas Edition. That means regular Ionic users can't even download the app that is branded their non-Adidas products. The wearable that is adidas-branded all of the standard features of the original Ionic. That includes onboard GPS, music storage for Pandora and Deezer playlists, NFC for Fitbit Pay, downloadable Fitbit OS watch faces and apps, and activity that is daily rest monitoring.
Fitbit's collaboration approach is remarkable as it's clear (and contains been for a time that is long that Fitbit knows fitness. While Apple had a relationship with Nike before the Apple Watch was introduced, it chose to work with the athletic brand on a special version of its then-new Watch to show it wanted to be a serious competitor in the fitness and health space that is wearable. Now, Apple nevertheless offers a Nike+ form of the Apple Watch Series 3, but that model was not a huge focus as soon as the Series 3 had been established fall that is last. Apple doesn't have to prove that its Watch is a fitness that is serious with name-brand collaborations as the previous three variations of this unit have inked the like their particular.
The similarities involving the Ionic Adidas Edition and Apple Watch Nike+ Edition are uncanny, but it is not clear if a computer device created from a collaboration that is smart this will boost interest in the Ionic. Unlike Apple in the past, Fitbit doesn't have to prove that the Ionic is a fitness that is capable (neither is there to show it self as an organization within the wellness technology market). The core options that come with the Ionic will always be up-to-par with Fitbit's other products, however the view did have dilemmas music that is surrounding, OS limitations, and delayed features. The watch has gotten better over the past few months as Fitbit pushed out promised features and developers created more watch faces and apps for Fitbit OS.
But its most intriguing feature—Fitbit Coach's on-device workouts and health guidance—hides behind an paywall that is annual. I'ven't had the opportunity to check out Adidas' directed exercises with this device that is new but they appear to be structured similarly to Fitbit's routines. It's likely that Fitbit hopes Adidas Edition users will be more inclined to pay $39.99 annually Fitbit Coach after testing out its own routines that are guided the additional exercises provided through Adidas Train software. The Fitbit Ionic Adidas Edition can be obtained for preorder for $329 and will be widely available on March 19.( today******)

When the evolutions of a planet do not invoke enough violet flame to transmute their transgressions against nature, karmic Law decrees that nature's form of "transmutation" must act. For when the time for resolution is upon the planetary spheres only mercy can stay the hand of impending karma. And mercy is as mercy does: it works through the merciful hearts of those in embodiment who keep the flame of life and know that the daily invocation of mercy as the transmutative action of the violet flame is the means to "act in time to save nine."
-Messenger ECP in Prophecy for the 1990s, book 2, S. U. Press, 1990, p. 26
Now it has been said that love, even perfect love, casts out all fear. We say, let it be done as it has been spoken. Let fear be banished from the hearts of the devotees of the ruby ray of the sacred heart of the Universal Christ.
Thus, beloved, for us to speak is to create, to create is to be, and to be is to become the fulfillment of the matrix of Creator in the creation. -Elohim Heros and Amora: 6-30-1988 at Royal Teton Ranch, Montana
In every beating heart of Keeper of the Flame I AM there. I am bathing with violet flame, giving the unguent of the seventh ray for the expansion of heart capacity—for life, for energy, for spirit, for love. The capacity of the heart then is our consideration as we the members of the Karmic Board and hierarchs of Aquarius gather to consider how in every direction we might add unto the stature of the soul and the inner Buddha.
Upon the brow let the image of Amitabha appear. Sons and daughters of the Buddha are ye. Buddha—indeed the name of God given unto his Sons who have so realized the bodhi of His enlightenment.
Hearts constricted where the room is narrow and the expanse of consciousness is not cannot contain the mind of Buddha, for the foundation of that mind is compassion. The lessons of life so key are the lessons of divine love, human love. Loving oneself may be the beginning, beloved, but let us understand, one must first love the True Self in order to appreciate the expression of the soul in the process of becoming that Self. One loves as love is and as love does become, even as the seed contains the full flower.
It is the narrowness of love's expression, even in the field of religion itself, that therefore does so limit the individual's chalice of the mind of God. This is the primary concern of the Lords of Karma this day. For given these confining cups of consciousness we are not able to project upon the graph even of the immediate future a major change in world thought.
So convinced are the people that their leaders in church and state can be trusted, that they are right, that they know more than they do, that they [the people] have ceased to meditate within their hearts. And their teachers do not teach them of course that they might learn all things from the inner voice. Thus though they think they are wise they repeat only clichés, only what someone else has said, and somehow by the very repetition [they believe] it is so.
There is not the ability to discern or to dissect thought. There is not the ability objectively to ponder knowledge, to determine if that knowledge is empirical, if it is the fruit of experience or if it is only belief with no support or undergirding from those who ought to be the acknowledged authorities.
Surely the authorities are the ascended masters and the great lights and revolutionaries who have carried the God-flame. But instead it is as though it were two and a half million years ago, four million years ago, and only lately had the quasi-brilliance of fallen angels put upon an ignorant humanity, a gullible child-man, fictitious rules, regulations, interpretations all designed to achieve an end: manipulation of behavior, population and subservience to a class of individuals who have called themselves gods and expect to be treated royally.
I am well aware that I am addressing this day those who have come out of the grips of these very ones who have bound you for aeons. With you then we may proceed along the lines of independent thought. I am also well aware that I speak to those who have developed a heartflame, who have sensitivity to higher vibration, who know the difference between the vibration of a flying saucer and the living Gautama Buddha, those who understand the path of metallic mechanization man throughout the universes and those who understand a path of discipleship that does lead unto that internalization of the God-flame. Few there be such as yourselves.
…indeed Keepers of the Flame and lightbearers of the world have come of age now to understand fully in your waking consciousness that which hangs as Damocles' sword above your heads.
And I speak not of nuclear war but of spacecraft and those who do not consider the value of life in any form but rather [consider] this life as expendable and as a means to their ends, even as a laboratory of experimentation. You well understand that even were there to be in existence today in hand and ready for use all technologies whereby to defend a planet from alien invasion the holocaust of such an eventuality should be ultimately almost more than the psyche could bear….
It is a question then of exercising that domain [of invocation] and dominion of the science of the Word….the desire that is then spoken by love in mantra, in God-determination to keep the flame and to recognize what folly to stray from the central altar of this Community in search of other pastures and wider fields, supposedly of freedom. There is no freedom without the flame of Liberty. There is no freedom unless that freedom to be, to breathe, to know, to experience the divinity within be sealed by an absolute cosmic protection spiritually, mentally, emotionally in the desire body and in the chakras!

One of the greatest challenges to an entrepreneur's continued success is his or her expert bias.
Established entrepreneurs typically have entrenched beliefs about what works (or doesn't) in their industry, and any contrarian idea is often met with extreme resistance. This is a problem because, while being an "expert" is an enormous asset in starting and growing a business, staying an expert requires a constant and ongoing search for even better solutions, ideas and customer pain points outside of the individual entrepreneur's realm of expertise.

Discerning expert bias
I think that any time an idea meets with loud resistance, that idea is probably tapping into a business opportunity that has yet to be explored. For instance, last month, I published an article about SEO guarantees that ignited a Twitter storm. In it, I argued that selective guarantees to customers show them "the objective value of your service" and "make clients happier and keep them around longer."
Since so few people in the industry offer this assurance, I argued that doing this can "give you a competitive advantage."
What transpired on Twitter shortly after the article went live was a case study in expert bias! Ian Laurie, for instance, is an SEO veteran. So he had a perfect right to challenge my assertion. But, in fact, as Laurie dug deeper into our public conversation, he realized that the nuances of my argument exposed his bias as an expert in the industry.
Martin MacDonald, another industry veteran, did something similar — except that he simply posted a leading poll in which most of his followers predictably agreed that I was wrong. What was fascinating about both threads was that Laurie wanted to prove me wrong by learning more about my perspective but, in doing so, he became more open to my approach.
MacDonald, on the other hand, wanted to prove me wrong by affirming his expert bias with his followers' support and did so using the poll results.
Want to tackle your own expert bias? Here are three strategies you can use:
1. To innovate, you have to be able to change your frame of mind.
You can build a thriving, successful business, but if you don't pay attention to technological advances, customer attitudes or the shifting approaches of competitors, your business will be left behind. Think of how Netflix capitalized on the declining DVD rental market and pivoted to introduce streaming content. Unlike Blockbuster, which was its initial main competitor, Netflix was able to innovate to bring its business back from the brink of bankruptcy to global success.

2. Expose yourself to different industries to gain insight into solutions for your own.
For instance, I took inspiration for our core product, fast SEO implementation, from a web application firewall, a product in a completely unrelated industry.
3. Simply look backward from your customer's perspective.
Steve Jobs said it best at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference more than 20 years ago: "You've got to start with the customer experience and work backward to the technology. You can't start with the technology and try to figure out where you're going to try to sell it." In other words, if you want to build a thriving business, you can't get siloed in the technology — you have to stay in your customer's mindset always.
4. Keep a flexible mindset.
Ultimately, an entrepreneur with strong expertise has to have flexibility in his or her thinking. Flexibility opens up new opportunities.
Personally speaking, I've found that my customers and their ever-evolving pain points keep me on my toes. My exposure to other industries (such as information security, web publishing and machine learning) help me realize that different industries solve problems in many creative ways.

While followers may consider me an expert in SEO, I don't want to become shackled by my strong beliefs. And you shouldn't either: When you open yourself up to learning, you open yourself up to opportunity. Extending your knowledge and wading into the uncharted waters of alternative industry ideas opens doors for new products, better services and new companies because you can more clearly pinpoint what the market is missing and what it needs.

Young Women Who Want To Be Nuns
Everybody has been telling me to read the story about Millennial women becoming Catholic nuns. So I did, and yes, it's really good, and encouraging. Excerpts:
These young women have one last surprise: They tend to be far more doctrinally conservative than their predecessors. If you go deeper into their social media feeds, past the wacky photos of habited nuns making the hang-loose sign, you'll find a firm devotion to the most traditional of Catholic beliefs. They fervently protest abortion. They celebrate virginity not as a necessity to free up time to serve God—how some "liberal" sisters see it—but as something in itself holy. It's a severity that overlaps neatly, actually, with the OMG maximalism that dominates social media.
Patrice Tuohy, the publisher of guides for people considering the religious life, including VocationMatch.com, told me that not long ago she used to get only about 350 queries a year by phone and online. Last year, she got 2,600. And 60 percent of those women, Tuohy said, explicitly asked if they could join an order that would force them to wear a habit. (Currently, only about 20 percent of sisters in America wear one.) Amid all their freedoms, Tuohy deduced, these young women wanted to be led. Even constrained. She said she wished I wouldn't emphasize that point, however. Something about it seemed to make her uncomfortable.
I wonder how old Tuohy is. Maybe she can't see why young adults raised in this anything-goes society would see freedom in certain kinds of constraint. The constraints that come with a religious vocation, as with a vocation to marriage (rightly received), make the individual free for something. Constraint, in the sense that these young nuns experience, is not the absence of liberty, but a means toward ordered liberty.
It's not at all surprising that the kind of young women seeking a nun's life these days would be doctrinally orthodox. How many liberal Millennials and Gen Z'ers are seeking out service in the life of a vowed religious? Why would they? I'm asking seriously.
Two years ago, Meg, the "hobo for Christ," introduced me on Facebook to a friend of hers named Tori. Tori was both discerning to become a nun and serving in the Army. As a first lieutenant, she commanded men older than she was, but when she spoke to me over Skype from a base in South Korea, she looked younger than her 23 years. The green military fatigues were baggy on her lean frame, her pale brown hair—dyed blonde on the bottom—pulled away from her sunburned face into a wispy ponytail. She said "wicked" a lot, cursed occasionally and referred to herself as "a super-duper paratrooper!" with a wink and a mocking thumbs-up. It didn't take me more than a few minutes talking with her to think: This woman wants to become a nun?
In high school, she said, she "had an automatic seat at the cool kids' table." She was known for her crazy, uninhibited dancing at parties. She hiked, she kayaked and she was good enough at soccer to earn a spot on a professional-development team. On her Facebook page, she can be seen photobombing group shots on snowboarding trips by sticking her tongue out at the camera. She always assumed she'd marry, have kids and work as a nutritionist.
When I asked Tori what made her stray from this path to become a nun, her whole demeanor changed. Her face got pinker, and she looked almost shy. She asked if she could read the full story to me from her prayer journal. This was too important to discuss extemporaneously.
One afternoon when she was a senior at her all-girls high school, Tori found herself drawn to the chapel. She wasn't deeply religious growing up, and the chapel was a space she usually avoided: small and dark and silent, with uncomfortable knee-high prayer stools. But on that day, as she sat to pray, a thought occurred to her that was so unbidden and forceful "that I stood up from my seat and physically ran. I mean, I ran out of the chapel. I was so filled with fear." The thought: What would it be like to wear a nun's habit?
She didn't want to be a nun, she explained. But in the ensuing years, she just couldn't get the vision out of her head. In the goalie box, putting on strapless dresses for dances—she kept seeing herself in a black veil.
And then one day, at a chapel on her college campus, she heard His voice.
"What does it sound like?" I asked her.
"It doesn't sound like anything. I just knew it was Him," she said. And His message was clear: "Evangelize."
Tori put down her prayer journal, looked up and started to laugh. She said she expected this story must sound "crazy" to me. She didn't seem to mind. Discerning the religious life, she explained, is "a process of falling in love."
The author of the piece, Eve Fairbanks, says that reporting the story affected her in a way she couldn't have anticipated:
Several other young women I spoke to who hoped to become nuns recommended a book to me called "And You Are Christ's." Written by an American priest named Thomas Dubay, its subtitle is "The Charism of Virginity and the Celibate Life." I am Jewish, and I am not celibate by any stretch of the imagination. I also wasn't sure what "charism" meant (basically, it's a special gift conferred on a person by God). But almost immediately upon opening the book, I experienced a strange sensation. It was as if Dubay were speaking straight to me.
"Nothing is ever enough," Dubay writes of how it feels to live in the modern world. You are expected to give yourselves entirely, 24/7, without wavering, to careers, to hobbies, to lovers, to children. Ideally, you are supposed to spend zero time not loving your job in a dying industry or your husband who fails to absorb the concept of emotional labor. But this is impossible.
And yet, Dubay explains, there is one being who reliably rewards our efforts: Christ. The woman who loves Him, the religious sister, has a calling worthy of her complete devotion and that honors her sacrifices "many times over," as the Book of Luke says. She has found her "passion." She has "rest," "fulfillment," "enthrallment," "completion"—precisely the things that I, exhausted, have often wanted.
There are a lot of recent books—and Twitter accounts, and blogs—written for women discerning to become nuns. They, too, sounded uncannily like the voice in my own head that whispers to me late at night all the things I wished my parents or partners or colleagues would say. Words of quiet affirmation and acceptance I had, in fact, almost never dared to ask for.
Later, in talking to a Catholic high school teacher, the answer to the the question implicitly raised by Tuohy became clear:
The more Olon thought about his students' enthusiastic response to the hardcore priest, the more it made sense to him. Millennials and Generation Z kids report much higher levels of social anxiety, pessimism and depression than previous generations. He'd seen it firsthand in his own classroom. "When I ask kids what they want to do in their lives, they'll say, 'I guess I'll get a job,'" Olon told me. They would explain that they had already done everything. They had destroyed worlds, fallen in love, built communities, made art. Then he'd realize that they meant they'd done this all online.
In real life, they were much more fearful. Everything they said—every youthful, experimental pose they struck—became a part of their permanent record on social media. The stakes seemed so high for even tiny choices. Sometimes, after class, they would ask him mournful questions like, "What have I ever really done that has any depth?" They reminded him of people having midlife crises. Yet Olon noticed that the more cornered they seemed, the more pressured they felt to do something truly wholehearted and unique. To be like Steve Jobs and take a huge risk that changed the whole world. Hemmed in on all sides, they also yearned for a tabula rasa, to tear everything down and start over from scratch.
"The level of anxiety and sadness these kids have, I don't think we can even understand it at this point," Olon said. "I think there are things these kids are experiencing now that we don't even have names for."
A Protestant campus minister told me a few weeks back that he sees college students having serious panic attacks all the time. This is something that almost never happened when I was in college in the 1980s. I don't know why it's happening now, but I believe it when people who work with young people today say so.
One more excerpt:
Overall, organized religions in America are still leaching members. But it appears that young people who do seek religion are drawn to a stricter, more old-fashioned form of it. Orthodox Judaism is becoming more popular with young Americans today than other, more liberal Jewish sects. The majority of Jewish Americans who are reform or conservative are over 50, while the majority of Orthodox Jews here are under 40. This isn't only because Orthodox Jewish families have more children. Orthodox Judaism's retention and conversion rates are much higher than they were two decades ago. The memberships of "liberal" Protestant sects like Lutheranism are rapidly aging while more doctrinaire Christian denominations—Baptists, Orthodox Christians—have younger adherents. A fascinating study showed that millennials—even Protestants and atheists—are attracted to churches with old-fashioned gilded altars and "classic" worship styles over modern ones. Young Americans are often more likely than their elders to believe in core elements of traditional religious belief like heaven and hell, miracles, and angels, and young religious people are more likely than older ones to assert that their faith is the "one true path to eternal life."
Pollsters have also observed that young people in America seem more open than their parents or grandparents were to authoritarianism, as if we possess a hidden desire to be ruled—that it would be a relief. In 2016, nearly one-quarter of young Americans told Harvard researchers that democracy was "bad" for the country—in 1995, only around 10 percent of young people said that—and they are consistently more likely than their elders to say technocrats or a strong leader should run America, even if that means doing away with elections. My friend Josh, a convert to Catholicism, told me he was drawn to the church specifically because it "doesn't hold a vote to determine the truth."
Several people to whom I suggested, recently, that Americans might become more religious said that couldn't be true. They pointed to surveys saying Generation Z is the most undogmatic and atheist generation ever. But the truth is that it's incredibly hard to read American young people. You can find surveys and news stories indicating they're more genderfluid, more committed to traditional gender roles, more rebellious, more uptight and moralistic about drugs and sex, better with money, lazier. This may reflect internal contradictions, the kind that compelled some of the young women I met to seek a much more streamlined answer.
Read the whole thing. It's long and deeply interesting.
When I read Thomas Merton's autobiography The Seven Storey Mountain in my late teens, the idea of the monastic life seized me. That wasn't my calling, as it turned out, but that encounter as an anxious, idealistic young man with the prospect of living a life of spiritual discipline as a monk marked me. I am sure that I would not have written The Benedict Option at 50 if I hadn't read Merton at 19. Come to think of it, there's probably a connection between the young people journalist Eve Fairbanks profiles in this story, and the fact that, in my admittedly anecdotal experience, most of the people drawn to the Benedict Option are aged 40 and under.
One more thing: in Poland recently, I saw more than a few younger Catholic nuns wearing traditional habits. And I saw a couple of young Catholic priests wearing traditional cassocks. I'm not even Catholic, but I wanted to thank them for it, because as open signs of contradiction to the modern age, they encourage me.

I was first diagnosed with Stage IV lung cancer 4 years ago. I was scheduled to fly around the world on a business trip, to work with friends in a few countries. Obviously, I had to cancel the trip. Despite my desire to keep the diagnosis and dire prognosis (weeks to months) quiet, I knew everyone would want to reschedule. So I was compelled to send an email explaining my situation. The response led to advice that saved my life: ask for help and immediately seek a second opinion from the best oncologist you can find. That email led to a stream of update emails. These missives have evolved from clinical updates to becoming more philosophical and spiritual. They, plus excerpts from my journal, have been collected into a memoir entitled Sometimes God Throws a Brick that can be downloaded free of charge from my website jamesdlewis.com. Another document, Cancer Treatment Advice, is also available for downloading or it may be viewed below.
This blog will feature my update emails. If you wish to receive the emails directly, please email me at email@example.com


text: More than fifty participants and around thirty speakers and organizers we welcomed at beautiful Tutzing Academy (near München). Official program was provided in meeting room. The seats were formed into a round so as people could see each other's face, main language of the conference was German and simultaneous interpretation into English was insure. Open speech was given by President of Evangelische Akademie Tutzing Udo Hahn and President of CPCE Dr. Klára Tarr Cselovszky. Then thru technic "market place" participants had a pace to discuss specific topics and got to know other participants a little bit better. The evening speech was lead by Professor of practical theology Dr. Thomas Schlag from University of Zürich. He opened questions about role and responsibility churches in Europe educational system into his contribution named "Focal points and perspectives of common educational action in the Protestant churches in Europe". Pointed that the way how we know our history is based on interpretation and paraphrased thought about identity from Julia Kristeva and thoughts about needs to support positive talents of people and support living together as humans from "Orbis pictus" by Jan Amos Komenský. He highlighted that to be a Protestant means to think about education holistically in terms of humanity and dignity. And at the end of the lesson he mentioned words from Pope Francis where he says that "way of doing things, times and schedules, language and structures, so that they can be suitably channelled for the evangelization of today's world, rather than for self-preservation"1. So, how to give spiritual soul to the Europe? The way is sometimes getting out of our comfort zone – he finished and informal talks continued in small groups.

It's the middle of the baseball off-season, and with snow on the ground it will be quite some time before the boys of summer take the diamond again. But for the NIACC baseball program, these past few weeks have been very busy.
Two assistant coaches – pitching coach Brett DeGagne and hitting coach Shawn Schlechter – have recently taken jobs in professional baseball. DeGagne took a job with the New York Yankees as a minor league pitching coach, while Schlecter signed on to be a minor league hitting coach with the Minnesota Twins.
It is a continuing trend for the NIACC program, which has seen a number of both players and coaches get a shot at the next level.
"It's an unbelievable opportunity for those two, and we're extremely proud of them," head coach Travis Hergert said. "They kind of gained their traction here in our program."
For DeGagne, the opportunity to work with the Yankees organization was one that he simply could not pass up. DeGagne was friendly with the Yankees director of pitching Sam Briend, who had been his pitching coach when DeGange pitched in the Northwoods League in 2015. After Briend got the job with the Yankees, DeGagne said that the two remained friendly.
"I've learned a lot from him and it materialized into maybe filling a minor league affiliation role for them," DeGagne said. "After a lot of talks and a couple of phone interviews with some people in the organization, I got the opportunity to go down to the Dominican Republic and meet with those people and Sam at the same time."
After his interview, DeGagne signed a two-year deal to work as a pitching coach at the Yankees' academy in Santo Domingo.
"He's a Minnesota guy at heart, so wearing shorts year-round is going to be a little different," Hergert said. ""It's a really cool opportunity to be with an organization that seems to be making quite a bit of changes, especially in their pitching department and development."
Though he has only worked at NIACC for close to 18 months, DeGagne liked that the Yankees' organizational pitching philosophy aligns closely with his own, and that of NIACC.
"It's something that I'm familiar with for the most part in terms of like bare bones, arm care, and throwing modalities. Sam and I see it as a good fit," DeGagne said. "They're compiling some new hires and people in the organization, especially on the pitching side, that have pretty similar mindset throughout.
"They are people that have a really good reputation within the baseball world, and getting to be a part of that is something I'm really excited to learn from them."
Schlechter has been involved in the NIACC program since 2011, the first two years as a player and since 2013 as a coach. He will be moving to Fort Myers, Florida, to work as the hitting coach for the Minnesota Twins Class A Advanced team, the Fort Myers Miracle.
For a guy that grew up as a Minnesota Twins fan, the chance to work for the organization is a special thrill. Once the interview process started with the Twins, the St. Louis Cardinals also reached out. In the end though, Schlechter felt that the Twins are a team on the rise, and he felt good about the possibility of advancing even further within the organization.
"They wanted to develop good people and provide opportunities for advancement in their organization," he said. "They want people to come in and not only provide for them, but provide for themselves."
Both coaches give credit to Hergert for helping advance their own careers, and for creating a baseball program whose main purpose is to help both players and coaches advance to higher levels of baseball.
"He allows us to grow and make this what it is," DeGagne said. "That is a huge testament to him and the coaches that are continuing to move on. To be a part of that is really cool. He has empowered us, and when these opportunities came up for Shawn and I, it was like, he was more excited for us than anything. He was like, 'how could you pass that up?'"
With two players in the past week signing Division I baseball offers, in Patrick Pridgen and Tyson Tucker signing with Oregon and UNC-Charlotte, respectively, the NIACC program has had a busy week. For Hergert, seeing his players and fellow coaches get their long-awaited calls is the best part of the job.
"As a caretaker of the program, it's just another feather in our hat," Hergert said. "The people are the ones that allow those things to happen. You don't do it yourself, the organization that we've built here is something extremely special, and I think this is a testament to that."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 3/7/2018 (645 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Wielding golden shovels instead of firearms, members of the Royal Winnipeg Rifles turned the sod on the refurbishment of a memorial to the infantry regiment.
The $330,000 project involves the memorial being placed on an elevated granite platform. Landscaping and pavement stones will be added to the monument.
"The Royal Winnipeg Rifles have a proud history and a lasting legacy," Winnipeg Mayor Brian Bowman said at the ceremony on Tuesday.
"It is an honour to recognize and commemorate our past, present and future through the expansion of the (memorial) in Vimy Ridge Memorial Park... I look forward to the unveiling ceremony later this year."
Ray Crabbe, president of the Royal Winnipeg Rifles Foundation, said "this memorial will commemorate 135 years of service in Canada by the Royal Winnipeg Rifles and will serve as a legacy to those members of the regiment and Canada's military who gave so much for their country."
The Rifles, nicknamed the Little Black Devils by the Métis during the Northwest Rebellion, were founded in 1883. They have served in the First World War, the Second World War, the Boer War, and conflicts in Croatia, Bosnia, and Afghanistan.
The memorial project, paid for through partners and a fundraising project by the Rifles Foundation, is expected to be completed in time for a commemoration service on Nov. 10. It includes fencing, lighting, and a hard surface area for public ceremonies.
"The foundation is extremely grateful to all those individuals, corporations and organizations who purchased a Legacy Stone and made a contribution," Crabbe said.
Crabbe complimented city staff and councillors, noting that all 15 donated to the project. Area Coun. Cindy Gilroy contributed $30,000 from the Daniel McIntyre land development reserve fund, Coun. Ross Eadie contributed $15,000 from the Mynarski fund, and the other 13 contributed $5,000 apiece from their reserve funds.
"That's a tremendous feather in the cap of city councillors," he said.
The city contributed $50,000 from its 2018 capital budget, Veterans Affairs Canada gave $50,000, The Royal Winnipeg Rifles Foundation gave $86,000, and the Winnipeg Foundation put in $20,000.

Double Podium for TOYOTA GAZOO Racing in Austin
TOKYO, Feb 25, 2020 - (JCN Newswire) - TOYOTA GAZOO Racing earned a double podium finish in the six-hour Lone Star Le Mans race in Austin, Texas, the fifth round of the 2019-2020 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC).
Double Podium for TOYOTA GAZOO Racing in Austin
TOYOTA GAZOO Racing earned a double podium finish in the six-hour Lone Star Le Mans race in Austin, Texas, the fifth round of the 2019-2020 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC).
A flawless race saw the #8 TS050 HYBRID of Sebastien Buemi, Kazuki Nakajima and Brendon Hartley take second place, 51.524secs behind the race-winning #1 Rebellion, to close the gap at the top of the drivers' World Championship.
Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and Jose Maria Lopez, in the #7 TS050 HYBRID, had no realistic chance to challenge their LMP1 rivals due to their maximum success handicap but completed a consistent race to earn third place and preserve a five-point lead in the World Championship.
TOYOTA GAZOO Racing's lead in the teams' standings has been reduced to 33 points over Rebellion Racing, with three races remaining this season.
The race began under grey skies and with a strong wind, with Jose lining the #7 up in second at the rolling start, one place ahead of Sebastien in the #8, although the pair swapped positions on the opening lap as the effect of the different success handicaps became instantly apparent.
Sebastien pushed hard to stay within striking distance of the Rebellion #1, which made a fast start from pole position and soon established a cushion at the front. When Sebastien pitted to hand over to Brendon the 90-minute mark, the second-placed #8 was around half a minute adrift. Jose, a further 40secs behind in third, brought the #7 into the pits soon after for Mike's stint.
A strong opening stint from Brendon stabilized the gap to the leader and quick work in the pits reduced the deficit to around 20secs, keeping the pressure on. After a fuel stop, Brendon, who has previously won three times in Austin, continued to set impressive lap times to keep alive the #8 car's challenge.
Soon after half distance, the next round of driver changes saw Kazuki take over the #8 and continue the pursuit while Kamui took the wheel of the third-placed #7 as the pattern of the race continued largely as before.
With a substantial success handicap to overcome, the #8 TS050 HYBRID had little opportunity to close the gap but Kazuki pushed to minimise the time loss prior to Brendon's final 75-minute stint. Now a lap down, Kamui handed over the #7 to Jose for the run to the flag shortly after.
Brendon took the chequered flag in second place to equal TOYOTA's best result at the Circuit of the Americas, with Jose completing the podium in the #7, two laps adrift.
The two TS050 HYBRIDs will stay in the US prior to the next round of the season, the 1000 Miles of Sebring in Florida on 20 March, the final flyaway race before WEC returns to Europe for the historic races at Spa and Le Mans.
Hisatake Murata (Team President)
"Congratulations to Rebellion on their victory. We had a clean race, everyone in the team did a good job and got the best performance out of our package, but we were not able to challenge today. We pushed as hard as we could and we limited the damage so the World Championship situation is still looking good. Thanks to all the fans who supported us in Texas; we are looking forward to another warm welcome when we visit Sebring next month. Our target will clearly be to return to the centre of the podium."
Mike Conway (TS050 HYBRID #7)
"It was a tough race and throughout my stint it was difficult to set competitive times because we were effectively in a race on our own. I had some hope at the beginning because Jose was not that far from car #8 but then the gap got bigger and bigger. We can only keep fighting to get the best results available to us for the championship; we are still in the lead so that is a consolation."
Kamui Kobayashi (TS050 HYBRID #7)
"I had fun and I enjoyed driving the car today. The team has done a great job since the beginning of the week; everyone performed well and we had great pit stops but third was the best we could hope for considering the success handicap. It is frustrating because we did our best but didn't have much chance. But congratulations to Rebellion who had a very strong race with no mistakes."
Jose Maria Lopez (TS050 HYBRID #7)
"To arrive this weekend knowing that on paper we will be the slowest LMP1 car is not easy but we kept focused to score as many points as possible. We always want to win but third was the best we could get. There were a number of positives from the race. I felt very comfortable in the car and had some good laps so I am happy with my performance, and we still lead the World Championship."
Sebastien Buemi (TS050 HYBRID #8)
"We did the best we could today and there was really not much more we could do. Well done to Rebellion on their victory; we just didn't have enough pace to beat them. It was a lonely race unfortunately for our car because there was no fight with car #7 due to their bigger success handicap. We did our race on our own so it felt a bit strange."
Kazuki Nakajima (TS050 HYBRID #8)
"It was a tough race for us. We were not too far away from Rebellion but they had the pace to win. So congratulations to them because they did a really strong race, with no mistakes. I don't think we had a chance to win in terms of pure speed so as a team we focused on maximising our performance and the whole team did a good job this week."
Brendon Hartley (TS050 HYBRID #8)
"We had a good race, with no mistakes from any of the drivers, some nice stints and strong pit stops. We knew that was needed to have any chance of victory but Rebellion also delivered a flawless race. They were very competitive and clearly had more pace than us. I had a fun time, slicing through the traffic and the car felt amazing on this track but it's a pity we didn't have more wheel-to-wheel fights."

- The Amethyst Road Pipeline Alignment Project (proposed Project) was developed to import water from the Mojave Water Agency (MWA) to ultimately store the imported water in the local groundwater aquifer, thus improving groundwater reliability for the VWD. The proposed Project would provide for the conveyance of R3 Project water from the MWA's infrastructure along Mesa Road to VWD's Turnout No. 5 pumping station within the City's water facility at Sycamore Street and Amethyst Road. The 24-inch transmission pipeline as proposed would originate at the northwest corner of Mesa Street and Amethyst Road via a connection to MWA's pipeline infrastructure; extend for approximately 1 mile, or up to 5,500 linear feet, generally along Amethyst Road; and then continue west on Sycamore Street to the intersection with Amethyst Road (the Project Site).

For book/ebook authors, publishers, & self-publishers
In the years leading up to the 1950's there were no resources for the challenged. They were placed in asylums or back rooms and left to die. They were never talked about or acknowledged. They were the silent children. The ones no one wanted. The ones who never given a chance to live. Florida Author Yvonne Mason has given us a story of success in a time of failure for the challenged. She has given a voice to a child born in 1952 who became challenged. This young man was not put away.
