Background: The tilt of Breege Rugen is believes that she remain discriminate against as small company compared to the Reederei Hiddensee (white fleet), as was already in early April. She complain against the harbour fee Statute of the municipality of Hiddensee. Now will the Court put itself the Hiddenseer delaying tactics no longer and threatens with the involvement of the municipal authority. By the way – the spa tax statute was famously criticized and must be rectified, but Hiddensee still seem to be the motto of ex-mayor has left meltdown: wait and drink tea "." "Beach chair rental: because the Municipal Council with the majority of the group citizens for Hiddensee decides" the March of the 1.anderungssatzung to the beach and swimming pool regulations. This was based with the need for a new regulation relating to complaints because of the wild landing by boat in the beach areas before Neuendorf and Vitte monastery; but apparently quite incidentally also the theme of the beach chair rental was affected by the new rules.
However two community representatives of the group citizens for Hiddensee had after State of affairs"in the vote apparently did not participate, because they were probably affected by the prohibition of participation according to the municipal Constitution. In this amendment Statute, which is now might formally annul, if they disregard the prohibition of participation of individual Member arose, is among other things, that the port and Spa business can annually decide on requests for the placement of beach chairs. But how should a beach chair rental get a security for his investment, if he does not know whether and where he should still set up his beach chairs next year? According to which criteria decides actually port and Spa operations on the allocation of pitches? And most importantly: who uses it? How technically bad in this amendment to the Constitution is made perfect is also reflected in the to the landing of water vehicles, for boats up to 5 HP that should be prohibited contradictory versions, although this would be contrary to the law of the land. Even if it were to be welcomed in principle, if the beaches of Hiddensee by motorized boat tourism were spared, so this cannot be through but by basically not lawful provisions of statute, as provided by the Statute in view at the same time again certain exemptions. In addition, the scope of the Statute is not clear, because it has fixed times only the North-South dimension. Again an island statutes, with a majority of the group citizens for Hiddensee ", decided the Court and municipal legal supervision may be have to deal with. "By the way some exhilarating has this amendment to the Constitution: the community demand now that the beach chair rental a friendly appearance" by statute! Apart from the fact that it is a business matter of course is that something in a statute has nothing to actually search for who should assess this friendly occurrence in case of doubt and check – perhaps the well-known boss of island information for charm and friendliness?

With the Indian stock markets on a correction mode ever since the January highs and the Nifty 50 currently testing the level of 10,800, ICICI Pru's Yogesh Bhatt does not see Nifty 50 going back to its record levels very soon, at least not in 2018.
The benchmark indices BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty 50 delivered good returns of upto 28% in 2017 and continued to conquer new highs in the first month of 2018. The Nifty 50 of the National Stock Exchange recorded a high of 11,171.55 on January 29. However, the stock markets have been on a correction mode ever since the January highs. The Nifty 50 is testing the level of 10,800.
While both domestic and global factors continue to drive the stock markets, how soon is the Nifty 50 expected to reconquer the 11,000-mark? In an exclusive interview with Porisma P Gogoi of FE Online last week, Yogesh Bhatt, Senior Vice President, Investments, ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, said the Nifty 50 will not go back to its record levels very soon, at least not in 2018. Here are some edited excerpts.
What is your near-to-long term view on the markets?
After really good returns last year, the markets are right now consolidating I would say. There are a lot of worries here in the market in terms of crude oil prices, US interest rates, likely elections in this coming year, as well as what is going to happen between US and China as far as trade is concerned. Volatility is there for all these reasons. However, we don't think so that it will last forever. There will be alternate bouts, which will come positive and negative, which will create volatility. Hence, we are recommending investors to practice and execute the 'asset allocation plan'.
Do you foresee a very big correction in the markets in the near-term?
I don't think there will be very big corrections because I feel that there is a strong domestic liquidity in the market right now in terms of mutual fund flows. Almost Rs 7,300 crore of SIPs are booked every month which are kind of giving a strong support to the market. Hence, even if there is a big negative news, you will see markets correcting maybe 2-3% or 5%. Then it comes back again. Hence, I don't see that markets can correct hugely negative unless there are some geopolitical tensions or trade wars — which are unforeseen events.
Will Nifty reclaim the 11,000 mark in 2018?
Definitely, it will go back to that level. But not this year. The trajectory is there. We are still into the bull market because we are just 4% away from the all-time high number of 11,200.
What will be the risks for the Indian markets going forward?
The only risk India is facing right now is if crude prices go above $80. That is where you will see some more correction and some more yields going up.
You seem extremely bullish on the healthcare and IT sectors. Are you bullish on other sectors?
Other than these two, we are also bullish on the consumption sector. We feel that the Indian market and the large population which we have is increasing per capita income of India, which is $1800 dollars. FMCG (fast moving consumer goods) plus consumer durables, and to that extent even auto — which is so-called consumption sector — would be definitely there to playout for decades.
What are your views on the banking sector?
Right now, it is very patchy in that particular sector. Though the valuations have corrected to an extent, but we feel that there is still time to go all hogged about this particular sector.
What has happened within banking is 'polarisation'. There are certain segments of retail banks which are very expensive. The entire corporate banks' books and PSU banks have become very cheap. So I would say that we are betting on this corporate recovery thing, but we will try and avoid some retail banks which are expensive. The entire banking is definitely not a 'thumping the table' by as of now.
What would be your advice to retail investors given the current situation?
They should look at some defensive sectors right now which are IT, pharma and some of these banking recovery stocks, plus the consumption sector. Power as a sector is also very interesting right now.
What is your view on mid-cap and small-cap stocks?
We are very clearly recommending investors not to put any lump-sum money in mid and small caps right now. Though there is a correction which has happened in the last five months, so typically it has underperformed the Nifty by 14 per cent. But we still feel that the valuation gap between mid-caps and small-caps and the large caps are still very wide, and hence we are not recommending any lump-sum investment. But yes, definitely after this correction, investors can start real long-term SIPs into small-caps if they want.
Would you recommend investing in large caps?
Large caps are attractively valued. Within equity, we would definitely recommend large caps over mid and small caps.

Part of the set of Four Beasts, four peaks on the outskirts of Taipei city which make up the Nangang District Hiking Trail, Elephant Mountain (象山), is definitely one of the best (and subsequently most popular) places to get a view out over Taipei 101, and parts of Taipei City.
The walk up to the first viewing point (a set of big boulders) is a steep climb, up a paved stairway. From there, the trail continues on at a much flatter gradient. Going further will take you a couple of other viewing areas – which are normally fairly crowded – though there are spots along the way which you also stop at & get a good view through the trees.
There's plenty of material on the internet on climbing Elephant Mountain, so a quick Google search should help you. The most accessible starting point for the climb is from Lane 150, Section 5, Xinyi Rd. The climb to the boulders takes about 20minutes. I've read the entire Four Beasts trail takes 2~3hours to complete, but I'm yet to try it.
The next time, I plan to head up to Elephant Mountain for sunrise (if I can get myself out of bed in time)…

Guestpost/Giveaway with Katie Reus
Today I'm fortunate enough to have an extremely gifted author to handle the reins, and not only is she going to drop some knowledge but she's offering up a copy of her newest book to one lucky person. So show some love for Katie Reus.
Thank you so much Wendy for having me here at Rage, Sex and Teddy Bears (love the title of your blog)!
Since I have a new paranormal romance coming out in two weeks, today I thought I'd talk about what I love most in romance. Heroes. When I read romance, I definitely read for the couple, the journey that gets them to their Happily Ever After, and the hot smexin (yes!), but for all that to happen, I need a hot hero. I have a few deal breakers in romance, and a crappy hero is in my top three. He doesn't have to be tall, dark and handsome, though that doesn't hurt. He doesn't have to have a dangerous edge to him… though again, definitely doesn't hurt! But if the man is a jerk or if he's wimpy and whiny, I'm putting the book down (or more than likely deleting it from my Kindle).
As a rule, I love my men to be alpha. Sometimes alpha males get a bad reputation, but that's because they're often mislabeled as assholes. There is a huge difference between alpha and jerk. A man can be demanding, protective and sometimes pig headed, but he can still be respectful of the heroine at the same time. Once the respect goes out the window, so does my interest in the hero. And so does his title of "hero" for that matter.
In Alpha Instinct, my upcoming release, my hero is Alpha of his own pack and a natural leader so yeah, he's definitely categorized as an alpha. Even if he does screw up on occasion (who doesn't?) and drives the heroine just a tad crazy, he's always got his woman's back. That's something I expect in my real life hero so I definitely expect it in the heroes I read about.
So what is Alpha Instinct about?
Alpha Instinct is the first book in a new paranormal series (Moon Shifter). It release February 7, 2012 from NAL/Signet Eclipse. The official blurb is:
Fear has a scent. So does desire…
Ana Cordona has been a strong leader for the lupine shifters who survived after all the males and most of the females in her pack were mysteriously poisoned. As tough as she is, with no Alpha male, the pack is vulnerable to the devious shifter Taggart, who wants to claim both their ranch and Ana as his own. When Connor Armstrong comes back into her life, promising protection, it's almost enough to make Ana forget how he walked out on her before --- and reluctantly accept his offer to mate.
The minute Connor sees Ana again, it reawakens a raw hunger. He must have her for his bondmate --- his wolf cries out for it. But his human side knows he must proceed with caution because of their complicated past. If he is to truly have her body and soul, he must go beyond his burning desire and win back her heart. Whatever it takes, he is determined not to leave her side again.
But Taggart and his rival pack are not their only enemies. A human element in town is targeting shifters. Their plan not only threatens Ana and Connor's future, but the lives of the entire pack…
Thanks again for having me here today!

RAID: World War II Preview
It's no secret that gamers grew exhausted of the World War II shooter genre several years ago. When titles such as Call of Duty, Medal of Honor and Brothers in Arms were firing them out faster than an MG 42, it was tiresome to have each new big release feature America defeating the evil Third Reich and saving the world while patriotic music played in the background. It seems the current generation of videogames has since abandoned the trope, with the new focus being on futuristic warfare involving mechs and bio-engineered weaponry. However, with the critical and commercial success of DICE's Battlefield 1 – which shook up the genre by offering a new perspective on one of the bloodiest conflicts in history – as well as a new Call of Duty game revisiting the Second World War, it seems the historical shooter is on the verge of making a comeback.
Among several announcements and exclusive first looks that were unveiled during a livestream by Starbreeze last week, footage and information regarding the upcoming first-person shooter RAID: World War II was revealed. Currently in development by Lion Game Lion – a studio established by former Overkill Software employees – the game is promoted as a Payday 2 meets Inglorious Basterds co-operative shooter that involves impairing the Nazi command by heisting and bombarding your way across Europe.
RAID abandons the huge beach storms or large-scale battles in favour of the covert operations that aren't recorded in the history books but still triggered a large barrier on the German military forces. When four criminals – named Stirling, Wolfgang, Rivet and Kurgan – are freed from prison by the shadowy Mrs. White, they are recruited into British secret intelligence to help turn the war in favour of the Allies by doing what they do best – by pillaging, sabotaging, eliminating and stealing anything that bears the swastika.
The game operates as a four-person co-operative shooter where players take assignments from various high-level generals – one of whom will be played by famed actor John Cleese – and inflict carnage behind enemy lines. One of the levels previewed so far involves the team making a full-frontal assault on a Nazi-occupied bridge and destroying the anti-aircraft guns, all while repelling the invading reinforcements. Other mission types teased by the developer included blowing up towers, robbing trains, and invading Nazi camps to take out army commanders, which will all tie together in larger story arcs. While it seems most of these levels will be focused on aiding the war efforts, Lion Game Lion will also incorporate a greed element where players can find randomised loot to steal that will allow them to finish with a higher score and be able to buy new weapons and cosmetic items.
Teamplay is a big push for the game. There are four classes available which will determine what type of weapons and equipment you'll have. In the gameplay video from E3 2016 the Demolition Man class – which handles explosives and shotguns – was utilised by the player. The synergy between classes is an important part of gameplay, as some actions can only be completed by a certain class and some skills will also buff other players, making it vital to find the right combination to mix-and-match certain playstyles.
The idea to create such a project originated during Lion Game Lion's development of DLC for Payday 2, and game director Ilija Petrusic felt the formula for such a game would also fit a Second World War setting. It will have a more tongue-in-cheek approach to the subject matter, rather than the "war is hell" tone many World War II videogames go for. Petrusic has also hinted that sometimes you may even be doing jobs for the Germans – as long as it fits into the greater good narrative the game is going for.
One thing Lion Game Lion wish to pursue is reworking what was utilised well in the Payday games and adding them to RAID. Interaction between the characters was an important element of that series, and so Petrusic assures players that has made it into his game, and the sound department has "really nailed" it. It will also feature special enemy types. Instead of facing off against Tazer units, the special enemies in RAID will be more fitting to the time period. An incendiary opponent was seen during the demo, approaching the group slowly but bearing a powerful flamethrower. It's unknown yet what other special enemies may make an appearance, but it'd be safe to assume snipers and grenadiers will show up.
One notable thing about Payday 2's development was the amount of post-launch support the game received. Since 2013, the game has received almost 150 updates in monthly increments and doesn't see any sign of stopping soon. Petrusic notes this will also be a focus with RAID: World War II, as new content – especially maps – will be released on a regular schedule as long as the players want it.
In a somewhat controversial turn RAID will run on the Diesel Engine, a driving game engine notorious for inconsistent framerates, multiplayer desync and countless bugs. Despite the complaints, Petrusic feels it is the right engine to use for the game as the whole developer team is experienced in using it in Payday the Heist. He notes that Lion Game Lion is putting in its best effort to optimise the engine to ensure it will provide a smooth experience for the players.
Lion Game Lion is currently hoping for a Summer 2017 launch date for the PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, just short of Call of Duty: WWII's November release. Petrusic revealed that Starbreeze had given them eight million dollars to develop the game, and he has been so far overwhelmed by the positive reactions both online and when presenting it at conventions. Could RAID: World War II be the new shooter everyone will be clamouring for? Considering the number of noteworthy releases later this year, it will be interesting to see where exactly it falls in the spotlight.

With the summer fun comes more and more opportunities to show off your legs. Long legs have always been a dream of mine and although I am not complaining about my height sometimes I really enjoy a good leg showcase where I can tower over some folks. Ankle wrap heels are a great way to add an extra illusion of length to your legs. The trick is pretty simple and the results speak for themselves. The trick starts with the same lengthening trick all heels provide in adding some inches to the length of your legs but adds a twist at the ankle. By adding the wrap you draw the attention of your eye to the narrowest portion of your leg, your ankle. Think of it as the effect a cinching belt has for your waist. With the look and feel of longer legs you can bet on adding some dimension to your look. Here are some of my favs for the season:
Gucci Patent Leather Gladiator Sandal, Fuchsia
Sophia Webster Marissa Calf Hair Fringe Sandal, Tropical Leopard

by the successive voices of prophets, prefigured by external rites and emblems, and engrafted on the Theocracy. A particular family, selected by Infinite Wisdom, trained in the severe school of adversity, rescued by supernatural interference, isolated from the surrounding idolatry, is to be the recipient of the divine oracles and institutions, and to perpetuate them till the advent of the Messiah.
An individual capable of heading such a movement, giving it the right impulse, and in the right direction, leaving his moral and intellectual impress on his own and all after-generations, seems an important prerequisite. He will need not only the preparatory discipline, but a clear and abiding conviction that God has indeed delegated to him this high mission. This conviction it was the evident design of the miracle we are contemplating to awaken and keep alive. His staff, probably his intimate companion for years, Moses was directed to cast upon the ground. On the instant it was instinct with life; eyes gleamed, scales glistened in the sun, a serpent
"bowed His turret crest and sleek enamel neck."
Whose agency, but God's, was adequate to so surprising a result? But the confidence which this miracle inspired must be perpetuated. There should be no harassing doubts in the presence of Pharaoh, nor by the sea, nor in the wilderness. Hence the serpent is retransformed into the staff. It is to go with its possessor, his divining-rod, through all his wonder-working career. That rod, itself a perpetual miracle, called down the mingled hail and thunder, and made fire to run along upon the ground. That rod summoned the portentous cloud of locusts,
"That o'er the realm of impious Pharaoh hung
That rod divided the sea on either hand, affording an exit to the Israelites, and drowning in its impetuous recoil the pursuing armies. That rod smote the rock at Rephidim, "turning the wilderness into a standing water." That rod rolled backward the tide of battle, bringing disaster on the fortunes of Amalek. In all these instances its presence and agency are asserted; in others, they are apparently inferred. One other instance, where the allusion, though possibly to the rod of Aaron, is most probably to that of Moses, is the last The "great and terrible wilderness" was crossed, and the Hebrews—now another generation—had arrived a second time at Kadesh, an the borders of Canaan, when, again, "there
was no water for the congregation." u Hear now, ye rebels: Can we bring you water out of this rock f" was the expression of that distrust which excluded Moses and Aaron for ever from the promised land.
Yet the rod—"his rod"—which Moses had taken from the Divine presence, and by the Divine command, had not lost its virtue. The twice-smitten rock "opened," and man and beast shared its refreshing etreams. 'Ain-el-Weibah, the most frequented watering-place in the valley of 'Arabah, is the probable site of Kadesh. In the back-ground tower the ragged aud purple summits of Hor, the burial-place of Aaron; and in the vale beneath still gush the unwearied waters.
The rod whose authentic history I have thus narrated, is famed both in Mohammedan and Jewish legends. They describe it as the growth of Paradise, transmitted through Enoch, Shem, and the Patriarchs, to Joseph ; from the palace of the Pharaohs transferred to Midian, where it became eventually the companion and property of Moses.
Of its ultimate disposition we are ignorant The expression in Numbers, "from before Jehovah," would eeem to intimate that, when not in use, it was laid up in the tabernacle, with Aaron's rod that budded. There it may long have survived the scenes in which it was so conspicuous an actor. Yet, as it is nowhere included among the revered relies of the sanctuary, we I might conclude, with the Arabic legend, that it accompanied its owner to his mysterious grave. Not unnatural nor unpleasing is the picture of Moses, now in his hundred and twentieth year— forty years in Egypt, forty in Midian, forty in the wilderness—climbing by its aid to the top of Pisgah, to survey the promised heritage of his people, and die on the threshold of Palestine.
"0, Spirit-land! "the land of thought," thou art without limit and without boundary. Thought will wing its way back to the beautiful home of childhood, the loved friends of youth, and all endearing associations that cluster around one's early days. The heart may be cold to outward seeming; it may be ruled by ambition, hardened by the love of gold, or led on by the desire for i, fame; but however isolated man may be, how
ever unloving he may seem, there will still be one vital spark in the affections that will kindle when, in some lonely hour, the thought of his youthful days, like the music of a half-forgotten dream, sheds its radiance around him; and though the sensation may be evanescent, it will be so sweet that he will desire, were it possible, to break the bonds that bind him to earthly objects, and to grasp the visions of his youth, and revel in their pure light for ever; but he sighs to think that his happiest days are past, and must ever be to him likeaBtarthat has fallen, a happy dream that has passed away, or a romance that has died in the dark shadow of reality.
The poet, when seeking a theme for hie loftiest verse, will turn with affection and pride to his early home, where first he felt the divine inspiration of poetic fire; where first he roamed the wild-wood, or listened to the warbler's note, gleaning something round which he might weave, with God-given power, his glowing fancies; and as he traces their pure imaginings, he feels that life is full of poetry and thought. Every breeze that trembles, every flower that lifts its chalice to the sun, and every bird that warbles its gladsome lay, wafts a cup of incense to the shrine of poetry; yet all the brilliant tissues that a loving heart could weave would still bow to early associations as the source from which the inspiring power had flown.
It matters not if the home be lowly, love aud poetry will find sweet musio in the babbling rivulet—affection within the cottage walls—rest on the green earth, and sublime beauty iu the frowning precipice. It will find a calm delight in the hour of eunset, when the king of day is slowly sinking behind the western hills, pouring an unclouded blaze of light on all surrounding objects; and as its beams rest upon the hushed deep, gilding the green billows, and again reflecting back to earth with increased radiance, forming the paradise described in the glowing language of the poet, it will crown with laurels his anxious brow, and send a eoothing whisper to his fainting heart.
The sunset hour is a fitting moment for reflection. Even like the sun, must all mankind sink into their last resting-place, perhaps when in the same meridian of glory as this brilliant orb. It would seem as though the evening hour should be a peaceful one; such lovely harmony and quiet pervade all nature, that mankind should then bid adieu to the turmoils of the day; but it is not thus. The sun moves onward, still on
ward in its appointed course, through the beautiful, unfathomable depths of blue, yet seldom leaves the hearts of men at peace. Let us for a moment look into their various pursuits. ThB first scene presented to view is one of fe'icity: no cankering care intrudes; and should tib» glance into life rest here, the echo would be happiness; but our thoughts cannot always linger where are woven the most beautiful threads in the "web of life." We pass on to those who entered the gay world with a loving heart; no sorrow darkened the beautiful brow; no care saddened the joyous spirit; yet contact with tha world and its hypocrisy has bowed low the beautiful brow once crowned with the halo of merriment, and has crushed the joyous spirit from which no sound but sweetest music once whispered; or perhaps those who are blessed with a spirit to brook the falsehoods of the world have lost that which they most prized, have been eilent watchers at the death-bed of those they devotedly loved, and have seen the pure spirit wend its way to the Author of its being, and have said, in the sorrow of the heart—The lifestream is loosened, the "golden bowl broken," and I am alone.
Then, too, the ambitious wealth-seeker, who has closed the door of his heart against every kindly feeling; has checked every heartfelt impulse, to bend his whole soul to the one purposa of attaining wealth; has seen his hoard of glittering gold increase day by day: his coffers swell with their added contents; gems of costly dye, and pearls that well might deck a throne, flash before his eye; in his possession are the costly fabries of other lands; at his command are tha long rent-rolls, and servitors in jewelled armor, as in the olden days of chivalry; yet he wakes as from a dream, and says—I am not happy. His guiding star has fallen; no longer does the fascination exist to lure him on to the acquisition of wealth which he has bartered his soul to obtain. The waters of life close over him; his gold has not conferred happiness upon him in life, etill less in death; his gold cannot procure his ransom from his God.
Death enters all homes, of the rich and of tha poor, of the high and of the low. It has paralyzed the efforts of age, and frustrated the schemes of manhood; it has dispelled the happy visions of youth by taking the fuirest and brightest from the social group; it has clouded the bright dreams, and placed its signet on the laughing brow of childhood; and as the requiem of
departed hopes is still sounding in mournful murmurs of the fading joy of earthly pursuits, we are led to exclaim:
H Oh! if no other boon were given,
To keep our hearts from wrong and stain,
BT. UB.s. MAHI4. 0. TRACT.
"iFKAanot iodic," said an eminent saint, "and heaven to" the vision of my faith is beautiful and glorious ; yet to my spirit there clings a dread of the angelic pretence. I shrink from the prospect of communion with those who, possessing moral freedom, maintained their integrity, anil have never like myself needed forgiveness from our common Father and Creator.''
Yes, the dark night of brooding fear and gloomy doubt is gone,
And on my long-enshrouded soul hath broke the morning dawn;
By virtue of that precious blood for sinners freely shed, Sweet peace and joy, in roseate hues, are round my pathway spread.
Yet, even now, my trembling soul admits one shadowy fear;
Can I, on earth a sinner vile, with confidence appear Before the shining angel-throngs, and there with comfort stand,
Nor hlufih, remembering what I was, among that seraph handf
Will not my spirit, self-abased, retire from their embrace? Can I, unveiled and uncon fused, e'er meet them face to face?
Must I not shrink, ashamed, abashed, as rests the piercing eye
Of scathless purity on one long stained with sin's deep dye?
Among the* blood-washed, ransomed throng I would not fear to stand,
Nor blench to meet their ardent gaze, as, with my harp in
hand, x I'd join me sweet ecstatic song, the loud and'swelling
To Him who for us one and all was erst on Calvary slain.
Nay, e'en before the Holy Throne my spirit Would not quail 1
The precious all atoning blood should there for me prevail; grateful to my forgiving God, I'd lowly bow me down, And, with my sweetest hymns of praise, lay at his feet rny crown.
The pardoned child fears not to meet his father's smiling face,
But turni with higher, sweeter joy to seek his loved embrace;
While from the righteous, "elder son" who shares that faUier's love,
Unconscious spirit, self-accused, shrinks like a timid dove.
And thus, before the silvery-winged, ethereal throng to stand,
Who, pure and loyal, ne'er had need of pardon from His hand,
Erect in conscious d ignity, in lofty sinless pride,— How will my spirit, memory-stirred, serene with them abide?
Ah, timorous soul! thy infant faith hath but begun to know
The measure of that wondrous Love that wrought for thes below,
The mystery of that blessed word, "Thy sins are covered o'er,
And from remembrance, like a cloud, are swept for evermore I"
Deem not that pharisaic robes invest that seraph throng That move, immaculate and bright, the heavenly spheres among;
Conscious that by He power they stood when rebel spirits fell,
Like !.,ee they humbly sing his praise and of his goodness tell.
No, not like thee! They by his arm secure in virtue stood,
Sustained, preserved;—but thou redeemed; thy ransom paid with blood; j The richest, costliest sacrifice for thee was freely given, So thou in glory shalt eclipse those radiant stars of heaven.
The babe for whom the mother scaled the dizzy, towering height,
And bared her breast to death's embrace, as, with an arm of m ght,
Forth from the eagle-talons fierce the captive prey she bore,—
Stirred in that mother's breast a fount, unfathomed ne'er before!
So from the "roaring lion's" t eth that o'er thee raging stood,
Thou by a mighty One wert saved, with groans and tears and blooa;
For ifiee the crimsoned wine press trod, the wrath divine he bore,
And on his heart with matchless love he bears thee evermore 1
He died for thee 1 but not for those from angel ranks who fell,
And sank from loftiest heights of bliss down to the depths of hell;
The God incarnate died for thee! thy name for ever stands Like a fair jewel in his crown, and graven on his hands I
iVo, not like thee 1 Thy glittering robes with wonder they shall view,
And rapt shall listen to the notes their harp strings never knew;
With coronal of clustering gems shall thy fair bruw l>e crowned,
And hovering glory, winged with light, pavilion tlice around!
While they, " 0 holy, holy, Lord I" with awful reverence cry,
And veil their faces to adore the Eternal Majesty,
■ The Lamb who bled and died for me!" shall be ihy
wondrous song, While countless tongues and vaulted heavens the rapturous
strain prolong I
Then fear thou not the angel band thy birthright will despise:
Since thou art precious in His sight, how glorious in their eyes!
With glowing zeal they guard thy steps through all thy pilgrim way, /
And joyful to their heavenly home will bear thy soul away 1

A Spirit of ncglectfulneas, but Dot forgetfulness, has been upon me; and I have eat me down, as in days of yore, to write it off. What queer creatures we are! We live and breathe—sometimes we are happy, and sometimes we suffer; and every heart alone knoweth its own tenants. We entertain in its chambers a multiplicity of occupants. Sometimes little winged angels gain admittance, giving us a foreehadowing of that happiness for which we all so long; and sometimes, alas! little blue-dyed devils, after much knocking, are, in a spirit of reckless vexation, invited in. Thus we live; at one time, as Willis says, "believing the world all good ;'' and again, but not with him, believing it " a place accursed and given to devils," we feel that it is not all bedutiful, and that, far above its proudest pinnacles, there is yet another world, a "place where the angels dwell;:' and if we are faithful, and the poor heart battles on, enduring crosses for the sake of the crown, that we shall "go there too," and join in the "song of rejoicing," and be like the angels, white-robed and whitewinged.
We can suffer here; we can have taken from our arms idols that we cling to; we can have the head to throb, and the heart to ache; we can bear all these, in the looking forward to the recompense. For what is it I A crown, a harp' a robe, and a palm? Ah! not only these—which were enough—but companionship with "Him that sitteth upon the throne,'' with the Lamb that died on Calvary, with the treasures that here we resigned, and with the blood-washed throng, the myriad hosts of heaven.
We read here, and dream, too, of this wonderrobed future, until the brain gets dizzy, and thought is lost in magnificent bewilderment. God has thrown over all things a mystery that
the world cannot fathom. He has made the soul, that which is God-like, invisible to its own mortal-veiled eye. Those that we love die, and we stand by and watch them till the latest breath; but do we see that which is not of earth, breaking loose from the clayey casket I Can we hear the rushing of the soul's wings, in its flight f Can we see its departure from this world, and its entrance into one brighter I Can we hear its welcome? Have we any inlooking into this God-robed mystery f Ah ! no, the poor, loved, soulless body, is all that is before us; and with the eye of faith only can we see the former.
It is useless to enumerate further the world's mysteries. From the fresh young flower whose birth is from its earthy bosom, to the stars "that, nun-like, walk the holy aisles of heaven," all is mystery. From the tiny firefly, that floats upon the evening breeze, to the great broad sun, that giveth light to a world, all is mystery. From the warbling bird, to whom God giveth s nest, to him whom he has made "a little lower than the angele," all is mystery. Let us leave, then, a theme so incomprehensible, trusting that, with all His amazing diviuities, we shall one day know God "as he is;" for "now wesee through a glass, darkly, but then we shall see face to foce."
I do not propose, with my "feathers," dear reader, to lay before you "leaves from my lifebook;" but only hope, with a little sense and a little nonsense, with a dip into this and a dabble in that, to offer you, now and then, a few vagrant thoughts.
Iu the first place, I am no "rari avis," no sweet-throated warbler, nor a nightingale, but merely a dabbler, sometimes dipping into the ocean of thought, and, finding on my pen nothing more than perplexity, sometimes catching at the down floating from the broad wing of Fancy —but, alas! some unkind breeze wafts it from me. I go back into the past—the buried past— and ah! what do I gather? With the pale mourner, Memory, my constant companion in this reliving, I find here a sunny spot, beautiful with smiles and flowers, and there a faded wreath, and a tombstone where to weep—while yonder in the distance slumbers my happy childhood. The evergreen grows upon its young grave, and aa I pass the beautiful mound of girlish hopes, there falls from my heart dew upon the buds that promised to be blossoms.
Beautiful, beautiful childhood! who does not love iti for like "stars, the poetry of heaven," and "flowers, the poetry of earth,"' children are the poetry of life. And here again we can look
over the vista of our girlhood, when, in all the sincerity of a echool-lassie'e heart, we wished we were but " out''—once a young lady, and then, as we vainly imagined, an "end to trouble." Ah! this was the climax to our young hopes, the highest top-stone of our longing ambition. Poor girls I thus we are discontented in every station, and know not its value till gone—the young looking forward to womanhood, as the summit of all happiness, and yet, when at its top, gazing wistfully back, and "would they were but girls again."
It is better so; for could the heart be all happy here, it would sigh for no other home. Thus in every thing do we, as children, see the wisdom of our Father. How beautiful is this nursery-place he has given us! Its broadspreading bosom is the yard in which we gambol; the woods, the birds, and the flowers, are our playthings; and when we weary and would real, our sheltering is of fretted star-work, inlaid with moonbeams. Oh! can the spirit be grateful enough for so much goodness—for such a dwelling-place I And yet, though this great mansion is so transcendently beautiful, it has its rugged places, its "Sloughs of Despond."
When we live on, treading over its flowers only, when those that we love are around us, when the foot falls upon no thorn, then it is that we deem it a fit world in which to be happy always. But let the flowers fade, let our household idols be taken away, let there come thorns to lacerate the already bleeding heart, and then it is that nothing seems beautiful but heaven. Griefs must come to all of us, and aye the bitterest, methinks, of all, is to see the lambs of our fold all soulless and lifeless in our midst. We look upon the form that was for years wont to pass in and out before us, and it moveB not. There are eyes that always looked love, but they see Us not; there are the lips that our own have so often pressed, and whose utterance was ever eweetness,'but they speak not. Oh! is not this enough to break down the spirits, and make the poor, sad heart long to die I Have you never felt, dear reader, when one of your loved lay still in death, that you cpuld throw yourself upon the chilled bosom, and weep the heart away! Ah! there comes to me, in all its agony, a time when this full heart could have broken forth in wailings to be gone—to lie down in the grave with the little cold form it still so loved. God wanted another harper in his white-robed throng, and,sending down his angels, they gathered up our darling, and bore him away on their white wings.
But we will tear us from these sad pages in the book of life, which we must all, sooner or later, ponder over. And now, kind reader, "a few words more," as the preachers say, and we will tip the end of this our introductory feather.
In our next shedding, we shall have our thoughts, we trust, more concentrated—for this we design only as a preface to our Feathers. We shall dabble, hereafter, in a little of any thing and nothing, hoping, with our humble efforts, to interest at least a few of the many readers of our prized companion.
Before concluding, let me say to you, kind reader, that I am again, after years of absence, at my old home. Perchance it is this alone that has awakened the wish to dabble again in ink. While here, I have read of the death of "Lizzie Newton," known to me only by the soul-communion gathered monthly from these pages. Peace to her beautiful spirit! And while here, I have stood by the bedside of " The Unknown." We have read her last production. We can have no more, in this world, a lay from her harp-strings. The next strain they breathe will be in heaven. God, the Father, is taking her to himself.
Thus have we lost from these pages two of our sweetest sisters—the one, taken from a field of usefulness into which she had but entered; theother, leaving behind her monuments in young hearts that will think of her "but to bless." Ah! it is sad to die young) But, in the language of "Amelia," another "star gone down"—
"Oh! why should death be linked with fear?
Clergymen.—-St.me people talk a great deal about ministers, and the cost of keeping them, paying their house-rente, table expenses, and the other expenses of salary. Did such croakers ever think that it costs thirty-five million dollars to pay the salaries of American lawyers; that twelve millions of dollars are paid out annually to keep our criminals, and ten millions of dollars to keep the dogs in the midst of us alive, while only six millions of dollars are spent annually to keep six thousand preachers in the United States f These are facts, and statistics will show them to be facts. No one thing exerts such a mighty influence in keeping this mighty republic from falling to pieces as the Bible and its ministers.

Katarina Saunders, Kat to the world, international rock star. Lead singer for The Grinders. Until she has an accident that ruins her career and sends her running into the mountains, away from everything and everyone.
Dane Reynolds, President of the Savage Angels MC. Fierce, strong and loyal. He's had his eye on Kat for a while now and had been waiting for her to come to him but he's had enough of waiting. He's decided it's time to make her his. But so has her Stalker, he's been waiting for far too long…….
Can Dane save Kat? Or will her Savage Stalker get to her first?
This is going to be a hard review for me to type. Why is that you ask? Well, it is because I am torn about how I feel about Savage Stalker. It started off pretty good, had me interested in it almost immediately, but slowly it started to go down hill. Again why you ask? There are many reasons. One being that there were so many different POV's from everyone from Dane's fellow members of the MC to all of Kat's bandmates that it's not only gets confusing but at times just plain ridiculous. Another reason was Kat herself, she just was too bipolar in switching of personality traits that it was hard, at least for me to really feel much for her besides irritation. I loved Dane, he saved this book from it being one I absolutely hated.
Now, while I may not have overly liked Savage Stalker, it did make me want to give the next book in the series a chance once it comes out. First books in a series can sometimes be rough because you are being introduced to the character's and the world they live in and I think that in this case there was just way to much going on all at once. It wasn't a bad read, let me make that perfectly clear, it was just one that for me was a little bit of a letdown in my opinion. Make your own opinion though, what may have not been great for me will be great for you.

Q&L #13 (unlucky for some)
Craft Barn's quotes and lyrics challenge words are Horizon and/or Path for this fortnight. Ideas came easily and so did quotes and these cards have been made for three days but finding the time to upload the photos and blog a post took some doing! Sadly lyrics didn't spring to mind at all so I have had to use two quotes.
Isn't this quote so apt? It is similar to the one my husband uses all the time when not completing jobs "It is better to travel hopefully than arrive"! However as I frequently tell him I love the 'F' word – Finished- but it falls on deaf ears.
quote from Brainy Quote
Inks – Versacolor Sea Foam, Fresh Green , Green Tea and Green
Versamagic – Aegean Blue, Ocean Depth, Night Sky and Hint of Pesto
Versafine Onyx Black
Memento Rich Cocoa
Stamps – Inkylicious Take Flight

Had this stamp for a while and this is only its second outing. Groucho Marx's take on the old adage is amusing. This cat reminds me of the one we used to have and also of another cat that lived down in the hamlet who frequently went into the church when a service was in progress to say hello to everyone and on our daughter and son-in-law's wedding he came around to greet everyone and get into a few photos.

The small screen diva has returned to co-host 'Extraaa Innings T20' and is sure to have millions of pulses fluttering with her image makeover. At a show organised by MAX at Taj Lands End Hotel in Mumbai on Monday, Mandira Bedi was brought back in the fray for another " Extraaa Innings " at the show that she says gave her an opportunity to live her passion for cricket.
Mandira Bedi started six years ago with MAX and her involvement in the first edition of Indian Premier League created wholesome entertainment for millions of Indian households. She is rightly considered as the 'First Lady' of Indian cricket with millions tuning in daily to watch her insights on the game along with her fashion choices. Strapless blouses, Bright Sarees and that weren't all as when she spoke about the game, she made sense too.
The second coming of Mandira to 'Extraaa Innings T20' is accompanied with a new wardrobe and fashion statement. She was seen strapless, but in a dress than a blouse. She looks more toned, fresh and debonair.
So she is back with a bang. The new season of DLF iplt20, which kicks off this Saturday, promises another chapter in the path breaking story of how IPL transformed Indian cricket and how Mandira Bedi turned it into a complete family experience. Let's see how she manages to capture the hearts as well as eyeballs of cricket fans in India, once again…

Edith Piaf Tribute Tonight at the Ropetackle Centre
There exists a general wariness surrounding tribute singers that is often well founded. Tribute acts can easily overdo the well known characteristics of their idols, or simply fail to match up to their musical standard. However, Tina May manages to successfully bring the memory of Edith Piaf to life without attempting to reincarnate her.
May's impressive vocal range and stage presence have allowed her to become a singer in her own right, she pays tribute to Piaf's emotional, impassioned style, but doesn't lose her own identity as a singer. May's own admiration and respect for Piaf is evident in her heartfelt performance:
"Edith told stories of real people – chansons realistes – which are very poignant and about real experience, they're not fluffy, ooh la la stuff," says Tina.
The show consists of the award winning singer performing twenty of the French icon's hits with a trio of jazz musicians behind her. Past classics she has performed include 'La Vie en Rose', 'Hymne à L'amour', 'Milord', and 'Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien'. She also shares a few selected anecdotes about the star's life with the audience. The tribute singer recorded a selection of Piaf's songs for an album in 2010, with a few of her favourite musicians. Anyone who attends is sure to be singing "Non je ne regrette rien" as they leave!
'Handles the classics as the gems they still are.' (The Guardian)
'That great rarity, a singer who enhances a song.' (The Observer)
The show takes place at the Ropetackle Centre in West Sussex. Tickets are £14 and are available here.

Iranian Officials Scrutinize Oil Ministry's Preparedness to Stand against Cyber Attacks
Head of Iran's Civil Defense Organization Brigadier General Gholam Reza Jalali and Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Zanganeh in a meeting on Sunday discussed the strong and weak points of the oil ministry's civil defense structures against the enemies' possible cyber attacks.
During the meeting also attended by a number of Jalali's deputies, he elaborated on the Civil Defense Organization's activities in the last ten years.
Given the special importance of the oil ministry in the country's economy and energy supply, the two sides agreed to keep the current structure of civil defense in the oil ministry.
Yet, the two senior officials decided to further strengthen the status and structure of civil defense in the oil ministry.
Iran reinvigorated the civil defense structures of its oil ministry after an attack was carried out against it in April 2012. According to the oil ministry, the cyber attack was carried out through a virus penetration that damaged users' hard disks, but failed. Senior Iranian oil ministry officials later announced that their computer systems resumed normal operation.
A few days later hackers failed to penetrate the Iranian Science Ministry's computer network.
"Despite the frequent efforts made by hackers, the cyber attack has failed to leave any impact on the data system," a statement released by the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology said then.
It further praised the proper measures and full preparedness of the relevant departments at the science ministry for repelling the attack.
Wide-scale cyber attacks on Iranian facilities started in 2010 after the US and Israel tried to disrupt the operation of Iran's nuclear facilities through a worm which later came to be known as Stuxnet.
US intelligence officials revealed in April 2012 that the Stuxnet malware was not only designed to disrupt Iran's nuclear program, but was part of a wider campaign directed from Israel that included the assassination of the country's nuclear scientists.
Stuxnet is the first discovered worm that spies on and reprograms industrial systems. It is specifically written to attack SCADA systems which are used to control and monitor industrial processes.
In September, the Islamic Republic said that the computer worm of Stuxnet infected 30,000 IP addresses in Iran, but it denied the reports that the cyber worm had damaged computer systems at the country's nuclear power plants.
Iranian top security officials have urged the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to detect the agents involved in Stuxnet computer worm attack on Iran.
In April 2012, Iran announced that it has discovered the Stars virus that is being used as a tool to commit espionage.
That was the second cyber attack waged by enemies of Iran to undermine the country's nuclear as well as economic and industrial activities.

Save Noho Ferris
It's The Unofficial Barry Podcast… mostly! Kelly and Mike sing the praises of Anthony Carrigan (the hilarious Noho Hank on HBO's Barry), talk about Luna Display's new Mac to Mac mode, virtualizing Mojave to keep those 32-bit apps running in Catalina, commend the work of Alan Ruck as Sloane's dad's voice, Zach Honig's amazing shot of the aurora, and more.
This show was recorded a little while ago, so in our conversation about the Charles M Schulz Museum we did not have an opportunity to send our thoughts for those who are now affected by the Kinkade Fire. We hope that everyone in California who is displaced or in danger will be able to return home safely, soon.

A little architectural 'petit four'.
One of several such modest late Victorian homes in its neighborhood, this one still has its fancy porchwork intact -- unusual as porches require a good deal of maintenance and are often sacrificed when the expense becomes too burdensome.
This home is in a quiet neighborhood that developed over a period of time, with numerous post-WWII homes as infill.
Do you know where today's property is?
Answer tomorrow.
...and a little something for those who simply must have the real thing.

Texas Academy of Mathematics and Science
Students honored for scientific research
Four students at the University of North Texas' Texas Academy of Mathematics and Science received praise for works submitted to the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair.
The fair is purportedly the world's largest international pre-college science competition. Roughly 1,800 high school students from around the world enter each year.
Students competed in a variety of categories, including behavioral and social sciences, computational biology and bioinformatics and biomedical engineering.
TAMS student Julia Camacho won fourth place and $500 for her development of a computational method to help with the prediction of secondary central nervous system cancer.
Rhythm Garg won second place and $1,500 for his research into a more objective and cost-efficient method of diagnosing autism at an early age.
For his work designing a better medical scanning procedure with a lower ionizing radiation dosage than a CT scan, David Yue took third place and earned $1,000.
Zihan Zhao found a correlation between cisd gene family disruption and infertility in a particular nematode worm used as a model organism in biological research. For that work, Zhao won $750 for the Air Force Special Award in Animal Sciences.
National delegate selected from TAMS
Melanie Che was named one of two Texas delegates to the 2019 National Youth Science Camp.
The camp serves as a residential science education program for two graduating high school students from each state. Scientists from across the country will present lectures and hands-on seminars for the delegates.

Two New State Laws Bosses Can't Ignore
Monday, January 8, 2018
Several years ago, then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed about 12 employment laws in one year. In the just-completed year, Gov. Jerry Brown signed more than 80 employment-related laws. Two of the new laws stand out.
Perhaps the most significant change began Jan. 1 when prospective employers will no longer be able to ask an applicant about prior salary history. An employer also won't be able to get salary information from a recruiter or prior employer. The theory behind the law is that women tend to be paid less than men doing the same job – about 85 percent of what a man makes according to some studies – so women are at a disadvantage when offering salary history. Note that an employee may "voluntarily" disclose salary history, but there's a risk. The employee could claim later that the information was coerced. However, employers may ask the employee about salary expectations.
The second significant change for this year, which was already the law in San Francisco and Los Angeles, is referred to as "Ban the Box." This law requires employers to eliminate at the application stage any questions about criminal history. Employers will still be able to get the information, but only after an employment offer has been made. Going forward, an offer will be contingent not only on successful completion of a credit check (if allowed for that applicant), reference check, drug test, I-9 documentation, but now also on a successful criminal background check.
At the job-offer stage, an employer will still be able to find out about any misdemeanor or felony convictions. As before, however, employers are not entitled to information about convictions over seven years old from a background checking service, misdemeanor marijuana convictions over two years old or juvenile records. Tip: review employment applications and eliminate any questions about past convictions, salary history, birthdates, social security number and graduation dates.
If a check turns up criminal records, the employer may decide to revoke the offer. If so, the employer must provide the applicant with written evidence for the basis of the decision. The applicant then has five days to provide a response. The employer may still reject the application, but must do so in writing and follow federal EEOC "Green Rules," which have been adopted in large part by California.
Green Rules prevent denial of employment solely because of the existence of a conviction. They require the employer to evaluate the nature of the conviction as it relates to the job, when the conviction occurred, the age of the applicant when the crime took place and whether there have been intervening jobs without incident. The employer must also consider issues such as whether the employee will be heavily supervised or will be allowed to leave the work premises for deliveries or other outside work.
Two clients contacted me after they learned they had a Megan's Law sex offender working in their warehouses. They wanted to terminate the employees. In those situations, they weren't able to terminate because the employee was heavily supervised, never left the premises for work-related activities, there was no daycare facility on site, they didn't work near a school, and the conviction, in one of the cases, was very old.
An employer's policies often don't match actual practice despite management's belief that all supervisors, foremen and lead persons are following corporate policy. With so many new employment laws for 2018, employers should take the time to update their policies and audit their actual employment practices.
