Full Deck Poker Review/ By IpokerSkins.com
Full Deck Poker Review
Full Deck Poker is owned by RK Operations Limited, the company behind Red Kings Poker. The skin offers a tiered cashback scheme and welcome bonus which has options for low, mid and higher stakes players.
I would recommend Full Deck Poker as a solid option for players that is operated by a reputable company.
About Full Deck Poker
Full Deck Poker is an OnGame skin that first went live in January 2010. In early 2011 they took over the players from Prime Poker. This site is owned by RK Operations Limited, the company behind the popular Red Kings Poker. The site is registered in the British Virgin Isles, operated from Cyprus and licensed by Gibraltar. The main reason to choose this skin is their tiered cashback scheme, which gives you returns between 12% and 40%, depending on your monthly points earned. There are also tiered welcome bonuses which include options for low, mid and higher stakes players.
This review covers Full Deck Poker in detail, including comparisons with other OnGame skins. Below you will find information on their reputation, how the bonuses work out, details of the ongoing cash back deals and more.
Full Deck Poker's Clean Look and Feel
The green interface looks great with the Amaya software used by OnGame. The website also comes across as very clean and professional. You'll have access to their terms, to support and you can see their fair gaming certificates via links from the homepage. The website is available in English, Russian and Finnish languages.
Is Full Deck Poker Legitimate?
The main trust factors are all in place at Full Deck. They are owned and run by an established company (RK Operations Limited), have a license from Gibraltar and their deal is regularly tested by eCogra. The latest game-fairness certificate is from December 2013, which could most likely do with an update.
Extras include a full responsible gaming policy and a wide range of payment methods. There are three ways to contact support, via e-mail, phone or live-chat.
There are no major issues flagged online with Full Deck. The worst I could find was some general griping about needing documentation for a withdrawal request, and one player posting furiously angry messages after having to wait 10 days for a withdrawal.
Instant Play Mobile Poker Though No Apps at Full Deck Poker
Full Deck Poker does not offer the IOs or Android apps of some other OnGame skins. You can reach the poker games via their instant play browser game on a number of devices including iPads and Tablets. However, this software is not suitable for smartphones. This does fit in with the appeal of this site for higher volume players looking to grind out cash back deals. There is a standard download for both Windows and Mac computers.
A Choice of Welcome Bonuses for Different Player Bankrolls
In a welcome move, Full Deck has made the bonuses for small stakes players very easy to clear, while at the same time giving bigger bankroll players the chance to take up to $3000 in bonus cash.
Here are the main bonus offers – the main difference is the number of player points needed to clear them:
$20 Bonus, code = FDPLOW, 100 player points for every $10 = 10 per $1. 40 days to clear.
$100 Bonus, code = FDPEAST, 225 player points for every $25 = 9 per $1. 45 days to clear.
$500 Bonus, code = FDPBIG, 800 player points for every $100 = 8 per $1. 50 days to clear.
$1000 Bonus, code = FDPLARGE, 2000 player points for every $250 = 8 per $1. 55 days to clear. 55 days to clear.
$2500 Bonus, code = FDPXXL, 10,000 points for every $1250 = 8 per $1 (Note, this is 2x $1250 bonuses in a row). 17 days to clear.
$3000 Bonus, code = FDPMAX, 24,000 player points to complete the $3k = 8 per $1. 17 days to clear.
Player points are earned via a contributed rake model, with a 'no flop, no drop' policy in action. The point calculation is complex here (including the 'Essence' formula). As a rule of thumb points are awarded for every 20c in the pot at small stakes and $1 in the pot at 25c / 50c+. You will get points in proportion to how much you put into each pot. 3.6 points per $1 in rake is a reasonable estimate for new players. This gives 36% for the $20 bonus and 45% for the biggest bonus amounts.
Bankroll Builder Tournaments
Players can play free-to-enter tournaments here, known as 'banker freerolls'. These games will give you the chance to win real money with no risk. Many players have started this way and gone on to grind their prizes into real bankrolls.
Weekly Races
Full Deck Poker hosts weekly rake races which give away $5000 to their top players. You'll need to register upfront each month to enter these contests. You'll also need to make sure you do not play for more than 16 hours each day, as additional time at the tables does not get counted. What I like about these races is that they are in addition to your bonus clearing and cashback offers. Playing a few hours of Strobe (fast fold) Poker each day will really give your standings a boost here.
Cashback and other Loyalty Rewards at Full Deck Poker
The headline on the Full Deck homepage reads 'Bonus + Cashback = Top Value'. Here you have the chance to earn up to 40% cash back (a different way of saying 'rakeback') each month. Even the lowest volume players start with 12%, which is bigger than most other OnGame skins - that start new players at 8%.
- Here is the list of cashback levels:
- Level 1 – No requirements – 12% Cashback
- Level 2 – 1000 points / month – 15% Cashback
- Level 3 – 3000 points / month – 18% Cashback
- Level 4 – 6000 points / month – 20% Cashback
- Level 5 – Monthly Average = 6000 Points – 33% (yearly level)
- Level 6 – Monthly Average = 13,000 Points – 36.5% (yearly level)
- Level 7 – Monthly Average = 20,000 Points = 40% (yearly level)
What I like about this system is that your returns take a jump for the whole month when you move up to the next level. You do not need to apply or register, you will be automatically moved up once you hit the point requirements.
You do not have to play for a whole year to achieve a yearly level, so as soon as your total points divided by 12 hits the required total you will attain that level and bigger cashback rewards.
You can also buy tournament tickets based on which level of the scheme you reach, as an alternative to the cash rewards.
How to Deposit and Withdraw from Full Deck Poker
There is a long list of payment options available. Since there are no US players, the restrictions found there do not apply. Visa, MasterCard and Electron cards are all accepted with both Credit Cards and Debit card versions allowed. You can also use a number of 3rd party eWallet solutions including Skrill, Neteller, Clickandbuy, Paysafecard and uKash. Topping off the list are regional favourites like WebMoney and SoFort. For larger deposits, I recommend you speak to support first and arrange for a bank-wire.
All of these options are available for withdrawals. Keep in mind that a document request is standard at online poker sites when you withdraw. You can also request a paper check.
How Good Are Full Deck Poker Support
I had a reply to within three hours, which is reasonably good for any online poker site. They were friendly and positive in tone, though the answer to my query on how the Essence system affects my point accumulation was naturally a little vague. You can contact support via e-mail, phone them, fax, or use the 'Live Chat' window from the lobby.
Summing It Up – Why Choose Full Deck Poker?
This site is clean, reputable and has no history of late payments or serious player issues. They have bonus and cash back options for both higher and lower stakes players, the top rate is 40% and the tiers moving up are very competitive.
As OnGame skins go, I rate Full Deck as a solid option who is operated by a reputable company.

An investigation is underway after damage by vandals delayed rail services in and out of Dublin's Heuston Station this evening.
The problem was caused when signalling equipment was damaged this afternoon, at Kishoge in West Dublin.
Repairs are being carried out and Gardai are investigating.
At one point, passengers experienced delays of up to 90 minutes.
Delay times have now eased, but knock-on-effects are expected to be felt for the rest of the evening.

Flaks are always tough to digest for anyone and can be a stumbling block. On social media too, a company can encounter negative feedback for the products and services they offer to the customers. However, one has to remain calm and patient despite such flaks and learn to take them on their stride. It is not a very easy situation to handle since an entrepreneur can react aggressively and hit back but that can be very unprofessional.
Social Media is a very powerful marketing tool for a company to promote their products and services, to boost sales and increase customer base and certainly not a tool for criticism. But critics do come and you need to handle them properly. You should not allow the flaks to be your setback and keep on going. You should understand that brickbats are parts and parcels of business.
Here are a few steps to handle it. Read the article carefully.
Stay neutral
Always take criticism on your stride it will help you to grow as an entrepreneur. Focus on your strengths and not on your weaknesses. It is important not to get bogged down by negative feedback or indignity as it can prove to be detrimental. Try to react positively to negative feedbacks and opinions of the customers and suggest for further improvement. It is highly unlikely that people's behaviour is not going to change overnight.
Avoid the flaks
Sometimes avoiding the criticism can be the best option. It is up to you that whether to avoid the negative criticism or react strongly to them. It will be shrewd on your behalf to concentrate on your business rather than getting involved in time-consuming discussions.
Don't get involved in a long time discussion
Always remember that people do have other activities to do apart from sharing feedback, criticism and feedbacks on social media. So you should not get engaged to long conversations with the critic if you have a disagreement with him. You must remember that the social media is a powerful medium where the target is not only to reach larger customers but also taking vigilance of the social media.
It is also important to keep emotions away and evaluate the point of view of both sides i.e the customers and the entrepreneur.
Take the discussion Offline
Although you may spend a lot of time to read the tweets posted on the websites but it can be beneficial if you take your discussion offline. It could give you some breathing space and ponder calmly.
Block the rude customers
If a customer starts to make personal onslaughts and posts rude comments, then block him or her instantly to stop that person from tweeting. You could come across that person in a conference so you can be cordial and courteous to him as long as you feel he is not crossing his limits.
Concentrate on your business
Stay focused and concentrate on your business despite the backhanded compliments. The best way to deal it is to be professional, diplomatic and stick with the truth.

Shea butter adds richness while being an occlusive agent, which allows the skin to breathe. It contains plenty of vitamin A. Due to the oleic acid in shea butter, it softens the skin efficiently, and enhances skin's natural protective barrier. Oleic acid is present in the sebum our skin secretes naturally, so shea butter helps by balancing our skin's own sebum secretion. Despite its firm in composition, shea butter is absorbed easily, and it also helps skin absorb other ingredients. In addition, it contains phytosterols which help stimulate cell formation. Shea butter is compatible with a variety of skin types from dry to ageing, and in small amounts even suitable for oily skin.

Along with my colleagues Chris Benner (University of California Santa Cruz) and Françoise Carré (University of Massachusetts Boston), I am undertaking a broad study of how technological change will affect retail jobs and people. We are looking at quantitative impacts (changes in staffing levels and number of jobs), compositional impacts (what types of jobs, in what retail settings, will shrink, and which will grow?), and qualitative impacts (skill requirements, training needs, mix of tasks within a job, etc.). We will examine a range of technologies—definitely including e-commerce in its many varieties, but also automation of functions like logistics, checkout, and customer service, and technologies for monitoring, scripting, and enhancing associate actions. Our focus within retail includes food retailing and general merchandise, with attention to store-based and non-store-based channels.

Michalak - Cocoon
Geneva - Bernd Michalak , boss of the workshop of the same name in Mainz, Germany, and long-standing contractor to the industry, surprised the Geneva exhibition with a unique variation of the Chrysler Viper.
His cabriolet, the "Cocoon", distinguishes itself by using two B-column lineal bars, which serve as both roof rails and roll bar, leaving the Viper suitable for everyday use.
The ruby red metallic Viper "Cocoon" can be driven in three variations: completely open, without B-column lineal bars, very elegant and classic; half-open with assembled B-column lineal bars, as a practically draught-less, all weather cabriolet, and, closed with lateral arch between the lineal bars and fabric covered roof.
"The highlight," explains Michalak, "is the lowerable windows, which electrically lower 6 mm when the door is opened and then automatically close again when the door is closed." The door openers are external and all parts of the hood, together with the lineal bars fit into the car boot.
"We are also directing our attention to Viper drivers, who, up until now, only drove out and about when the weather was fine," says the designer and engineer, Bernd Michalak, "because with our roof, the Viper is as quick as a flash weather, wind and carwash proof. The name, "Cocoon", stands for the safety and security of a cocoon - it is made of reinforced composite materials - the michalak "cocoon" is a variation cabriolet of the highest production quality."
At the same time, the Michalak workshop wants to highlight the cocoon's numerous possibilities of as development partner with industry - it's program extends from design through mold making, to construction of finished prototypes. The company has been renowned for nearly twenty years and regards big name car companies as it's customers.
Over the years, Michalak's drivable prototypes include:
the Opel-fun Corsa "Topino" (1989), the Ferrari studies, "Cilindro" (1991) and "Conciso" (1993), and the "ChallengeR" (1995), also based on the Chrysler Viper.
Information and photographs are available direct from the manufacturer on receipt of proof of published articles about the above product.

No-Frills™ Baptist Fan 135deg templates
The baptist fan templates come in a variety of sizes. Normally you would only need the 7″ & 8″ if you already own the circle templates up to 12″. However the smaller 135deg templates are convenient for those with smaller machines that can't fit the large circles between the needle & the machine. This enables shortarmers to still do up to a 8″ diameter arc on their machines.
NB: these template sizes measure along the straight side of the templates. ie: 6″ baptist fan will draw out a 12″ circle curve or 6″ radius. The finished stitched size will depend on the diameter of your particular sewing/quilting machine.
Some hints, tips and techniques for using these & the circle rulers for Baptist Fan Pattern on your quilt tops.
Using your quilters ruler, score a line to create a 1/4 circle on your template. This will give you your horizontal & vertical axis to help with placement on your quilt top!
You will need the 2″, 4″, 6″, 8″, 10″ & 12″ circle templates along with the 7″ & 8″ baptist fan ruler. This will give you 8 arcs at 1″ apart over your quilt top. This is usually plenty but at times smaller 'fans' are more desirable with less arcs in them.
This diagram shows only 4 arcs in each fan. The concept is the same! Decide which way you would like the fans to run on your quilt top. If you have houses for example, then you would decide if you want the arcs to run like bushes or like sunrays coming down. Load the top appropriately on your machine. Looking at the diagram above is like looking at the quilt top from the front of your machine.
These instructions are for using the templates from the front of your machine only!
Starting from the top left corner, place the first smallest template with the horizontal axis on the edge of the quilt and the vertical axis on the side of the quilt. (If you prefer you can start with the largest template and work to the smallest! It is purely personal preference at this stage. There would be slightly less thread wastage with working from smallest to largest using an even number of arcs/templates….) Do not clip your threads between each arc until you get right to the end of the row. At this stage I clip all the threads on the top of the quilt before rolling forward to start the next row.
Make sure you secure your stitching at the beginning and end of each row, using either small stitches or a tiny backtack.
Another nice way to start your baptist fan is to mark the centre of your quilt top and stitch a complete half circle set of arcs. Then you would do your arcs going in different directions from each side of the centre set.
A single row like this looks fantastic in a border!! Use a 3/4 circle in the corner if you can work the mathematics out to make it work!! Another advantage is that half of your stops & starts would be off the quilt top ….
Please feel free to let me know of any other wonderful ways to use these templates so that it can be shared by all!
WHOOOO HOOOO!!!! Another use for these templates……
Curved & straight radiating LINES!
Firstly you will need to download & print a polar grid to aid you in scoring some lines on your baptist fan template!
Polar grid (click here to download pdf file to print)
Then you need to choose which size baptist fan template you are going to use on your block. I like using the 6″ one for most applications. This one will manage up to a 14″ block with a nice curved line! I would probably use the 4″ baptist fan for smaller blocks to achieve a more pronounced swirl effect….but it is up to you of course!
Place your template as it looks in this picture on top of your printed polar grid, lining up the CENTRE of the grid to the point at the bottom of your template. Use your rotary cutter to to trim the paper on the straight edge on the right and the curved edge on the left of the template. Remove the template and trim the curved edge of your polar grid. Now put a dot of glue on the back of the paper grid you have just cut out and stick it to your acrylic template (where there are no lines) Using a sharp tool, like a compass, and a straight ruler – score the lines following the polar grid. I then removed the paper polar grid & extended the first couple of lines right to the point of the template.
To use this template you then flip it over so that the scored lines are on the bottom of the template resting on your fabric. The slight friction of the scored lines also assist in minimising slipping by the way….
Find the centre point of your block that you wish to put radiating lines on. Place the bottom point of your template (ie the centre of the polar grid) on this centre spot and guide your foot from the outer edge of your block towards the centre point STOPPING at the edge of your appliqué/embroidery etc
Here is an example for you to follow…. NOTE the dot in the centre that I used as my guide for the pointy end of the template to rest on! This was done by starting where ever the template initially sat & then just using the polar grid to guide me with the spacings.
This is a 12 1/2″ block & I used a 7″ baptist fan template to draw the radiating lines. If I use a 6″ template then the lines would have a tighter curve than this one. PS: I do not draw the lines on my quilt top, just plop the template down & start stitching!! I try to do this as a continuous design by following the edge of the block & the edge of the appliqué/embroidery design to get to the next line of stitching.
Another alternative is to place your 'centre point' OFF CENTRE!! Wowzers….we can come up with some really cool movement by doing that as well….
Next, you can flip it over again so that the straight edge is on your right hand side and now you can do STRAIGHT radiating lines on your block using the polar grid lines to guide you again……
Have some FUN and MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR TEMPLATES!!
No-Frills™ Baptist Fan Rulers – The size is the radius of the circle!

Two area state legislators are hoping they've got the right blend this year for medical marijuana legislation.
State Sen. Janice Bowling, R-Tullahoma, and state Rep. Ron Travis, R-Dayton, will introduce legislation in the next few weeks they say is "substantially different" from bills introduced in prior years and which they say will be a mix of medical marijuana strategies that have worked in other states.
We believe carefully crafted legislation that involves products that can be properly regulated could offer relief to patients who have found little or no help elsewhere.
The Bowling-Travis bill is likely to be one of several involving medical marijuana introduced this session, and the prospect of new legislation and a raft of new legislators could make the difference in one of the bills passing.
Last year, a different bill sponsored in the Senate by physician Sen. Steve Dickerson, R-Nashville, and in the House by Rep. Jeremy Faison, R-Cosby, passed the House Criminal Justice Committee 9-2 despite opposition from the Haslam administration, law enforcement and prosecutors. But it was scuttled because it wasn't going to get enough votes in the House Judiciary Committee.
To date, no medical marijuana bill has made it to the floor of the Tennessee state House or Senate.
Further, Gov.-elect Bill Lee has made his opposition to marijuana legalization or decriminalization clear, but medical marijuana could be a different story.
Nevertheless, 33 states now have made marijuana legal in some form, with Michigan (recreational use) and conservative Missouri and Utah (both medicinal use) approving it on ballot initiatives in November.
Since Tennessee has no legal mechanism for such an initiative, approval will have to come by legislators.
The Bowling-Travis bill would create a new government commission to regulate the marijuana industry. Patients who have been diagnosed with specific illnesses would be required to obtain medical cards allowing them to legally purchase the medical marijuana products from dispensaries that would be licensed by the state.
The specific language of the bill has not been released, and the list of illnesses under which a patient could qualify for medical marijuana also has not been delineated. But it already has the backing of the Tennessee Medical Cannabis Trade Association.
As the newest states to adopt some type of marijuana use are learning, though, there are many aspects to consider between passing a bill and patients finding relief.
In Michigan, recreational use or marijuana now is allowed, but there is no place for users to purchase it (though someone can give it to you if you purchase food or other merchandise). In Missouri, questions have risen as to whether patients with a qualifying card for medical marijuana can legally apply for some state government jobs, and they definitely cannot — per federal law — possess a firearm. In Utah, where legislators immediately adapted the ballot measure voters passed, critics say the adjusted medical marijuana program will become too wrapped in red tape and keeps too many patients from receiving treatment.
Last year, Tennessee state Senate leader Randy McNally of Oak Ridge said after the Dickerson-Faison bill collapsed that the issue should be addressed at the federal level. Well, he's right, it should be, but if Washington, D.C., lawmakers can't agree on how 0.0998 percent of the federal budget (a border wall) might be spent, what possible chance do they have of coming to an agreement on medical marijuana?
No, this needs to be a state issue, and it needs to be hashed out sooner rather than later. The possibility that children with seizure disorders, adults with Crohn's disease and seniors with Alzheimer's disease, among many other illnesses and disorders, might find relief is compelling.
The key, we believe, is thorough regulation, checks at every level of the process and annual reviews. We don't believe this has to be a step toward legalization or decriminalization — though simple possession laws probably need to be changed — but an acknowledgement that medical marijuana can be, as Bowling described it, a "natural and effective option for pain relief."
Studies also have shown that, in some cases, its use might prevent some individuals from becoming another statistic in the nation's growing scourge of opioid abuse.
If nothing else, we hope the Bowling-Travis bill, and others introduced, will receive a full hearing from legislators. The issue deserves information, consideration and cooperation in order to create legislation that could be helpful to so many.

When it comes to the economy, Americans want to see growth. We want more jobs with higher wages and the increased purchasing power that comes with those two things. In The Local Economy Solution, renowned economist Michael Shuman proposes a new way of chasing growth that both brings Americans the prosperity they're after and ensures that prosperity remains intact for years to come.
All too often, cities and states chase economic growth by attracting large companies and expensive operations. Many states use tax incentives to bring enterprises like movie productions and multinational corporations to their communities. The problems with that approach are multifold: In The Local Economy Solution, Shuman demonstrates that those deals often suck more money out of communities than they bring in, and the arrangements are susceptible to larger-scale economic fluctuations. In other words, the growth this approach creates – if it's growth at all – isn't sustainable.
Fortunately, Shuman's book puts forth an alternative: He argues that communities and their economies need so-called "pollinator businesses." Simply put, pollinator businesses are innovative, self-financing organizations that help local businesses grow. Take, for example, Main Street Genome, a Washington, D.C.-based company that advises small businesses. Born out of research from Georgetown University, Main Street Genome offers financial and operational expertise to small businesses, helping them to cut costs, comply with regulations and learn about their industries. The organization has a Main Street focus, like many buy-local groups, but it remains a for-profit company, offering an innovative software platform that helps small businesses streamline their vendor relationships.
As self-financing, local-minded organizations, pollinator businesses bring resiliency to their economies. Simultaneously, they foster local businesses, helping to spread that resiliency and vibrancy throughout the entire community. It's a new approach to Main Street that promises sustainable economic growth. To learn more or purchase Shuman's book, find The Local Economy Solution on IndieBound.

Out of Time: Seven
Dad caught, twirled, and set Mrs. Taylor on her feet at the other side of the room. Brodie had to steady her. She looked small between them, although she must have been close to my height. Do I, too?
"But this is wonderful!" Lydia Taylor said between breaths. "And overdue." In all the times she scolded Brodie in front of me, I never saw her do so with such a wide, lovely smile. I expected her to burst into song.
"Whatever kept you was too cruel."
"Time. Just time." Dad smiled the way other people blink back tears.
"I can see that. You never used to be older than I am."
"Time travel," Brodie said to himself. I glanced at him but couldn't read his expression, mainly because another tissue covered it.
Dad passed his hand over his short hair. "Mind you, Lyds, the waiting game is the good end of the deal."
Mrs. Taylor waved her hand for him to sit on the cocoa-and-gold sofa. "Age before beauty."
Her graciousness probably included me, out of time or not, much like the ball invitation included Cinderella. I sank onto the sofa against a lavender cushion. On the far end from me, a cardboard box marked Brodie's place in a book, presumably abandoned when he saw me out the window and ran.
"Thank you. There's room for more, if someone who shall remain Brodie sorts the mess."
"Ah." Brodie scooped it all up. "I'll just put this in my room. I don't suppose I need to research memory loss anymore."
Dad plopped onto the middle of the sofa next to me. "Shame on you, Rhosyn. You've gone and spoilt his anonymity."
"Back in a mo." Brodie took the stairs three at a time and vanished upstairs.
I suddenly thought of the piano and burst out laughing. If Mrs. Taylor had forgot me again, she saw me now. The mental image of her pointing a gun at Dad forced more laughter into my throat.
"What are you on about?" Dad asked.
"Remem-ember Br-Brodie said—He s-said—"
"Wait, what are you saying about me?" Brodie cried on his way back down.
"You said—" My finger swung from him to his mother. "—that you had a, a—" I giggled more than I'd smiled all day.
Mrs. Taylor put her fists on her hips. "Brooodie."
"Of course, now you can hear her perfectly!"
I pressed my hand against my ribs, accidentally elbowing my dad. "Oh, that's nice, really."
"Well?" She tapped her foot.
"He said you keep a sniper rifle in your piano bench," Dad said, "which I think was rude."
Lydia took up the laughter where I left off. "Did you think you could pass me off as a Yank?"
Brodie turned 'round and 'round helplessly. "I don't know that there's etiquette for loonies asking if your parents are in."
I tried to maintain a straight face. After a moment, Dad also laughed. "You're their kid right proper."
Mrs. Taylor laced her fingers in front of her one at a time, calculating something. "Shall I make tea?"
I exhaled. The real world, at last!
"What if I make the brew, Mum?" Brodie'd cottoned on fast. "I'll wash my hands. Who wants a cuppa?"
"Yes, please," I said.
"That sounds lovely," said Dad, "but I'm afraid we can't stay long."
My mouth fell open. "You're joking."
"You're serious?" said Brodie, crestfallen.
He shot me a warning look, then returned his attention to Mrs. Taylor, who also looked none too pleased. "We're out of our times, and it affects you as much as us. Most people forget us after they blink, and that's just blinking, mate. Jess…"
My mouth went dry.
"Jess fought it for sixteen years. Essentially, she's all right, but whole memories of that time are damaged."
Like dripping with watermelon juice and swinging in the park and edging into cold pools during the summer? Like curling up in front of the telly with socks straight out of the dryer and coloring in old books during the winter?
"You and I, Lyds, we have the same kind of history that lets you remember. With concentration and clear sight, we got somewhere. For a bit." He shrugged as if it didn't matter. "But we almost lost, and I'm through with that. I can't risk too much time around you."
Mrs. Taylor dropped into the grape-purple arm chair across from us, her steely eyes stabbing. "Still, you—you can't just walk right back out again. You already flew away once and didn't come back until now."
He winced. "I didn't think you'd have anything to explain, Lyds."
"Don't give me that look, Mr. Grinch. When you swore us to secrecy, you didn't spare a thought for what we'd do. If you had done, you would have listened. But you left."
His mouth tightened as if he had to hold another argument inside. "You're… right. You are right. I was arrogant. I thought only of myself, and I'm sorry for manipulating you and Mark."
I blinked. He had apologized to her. He had to me, not for being a coward but for his cowardice disappointing me; never for running me out of time but for what I'd endured.
Mrs. Taylor simply closed her eyes and relaxed, as if the words didn't cost him to say, as if she didn't treasure them. Argh.
Brodie sat on the other side of my dad. "Not to be rude again, but has anyone heard a word I've said? Mr. Watcher did come back to visit—Rose, that is. I get why Mum can't remember, but I can see people who are out of time." He squirmed a little. "That's what you were talking about before."
"It's… Yes, but I'm trying to get out of here, and you're…" Dad grimaced. "Ahh, now I've got to figure out what makes you special, too. You weren't in our times, and you're not out of yours. Oi! Still listening?" He turned to Mrs. Taylor. "You've got to remember anything that might have affected him. Nothing to fuss over; don't look so pale."
"I don't want to talk about this."
"I've said it's not a problem. I guess it might have happened when you traveled—"
"I hated traveling." She shifted uneasily. "Why would I want to think about it more?"
Dad looked confused. "Er. Because that's how we'll figure out what's up with Brodie?"
"Nothing is wrong with Brodie, and whatever went on when you left is private."
"I didn't say anything was wrong, exactly—"
Mrs. Taylor shook her head minutely, closing her eyes. I didn't think much of it until she raised her hands as if to keep something off her. "Are you okay?" I asked.
She turned her ear in my direction. "Who said that?"
"That's Rose. Remember?" Brodie said. "Mr. Watcher's daughter."
"Who happens to be nine months older than—" Dad started to say, but stopped when Mrs. Taylor took a quick breath and reached for Brodie's hand.
"I can't think about all of this at once," she said. "Not you and your daughter and that night. I don't even want to try."
"Isn't this what you were afraid of?" Brodie asked Dad, looking torn between wanting to know and wanting to stop.
Dad took a ragged breath. "I won't say finding out isn't important, but it won't hurt to wait. Here, you can look up now. We're leaving, I promise we are, so just remember till then. We only came because Rhosyn wanted to invite Brodie along."
Mrs. Taylor's eyes flew open. "What?"
Brodie's face lit up, red nose and all. "Truly?" He looked to me, so I nodded, unable to keep from smiling back.
"Strictly a one-trip deal," Dad threw in. "I'd only dare to borrow your greatest gift, never steal it. Trust me to know about that one."
Brodie practically bounced in his seat. "Still, that's my day sorted! Mum, please say I can go. May I?"
She still had his hand and squeezed it. "You ought to get over your cold…"
I dug my elbow into Dad's ribs before he could suggest coming back when he got better. We might never get that chance. "Please, Mrs. Taylor? We'll mind him." I smiled in what I hoped was a winning way, but she never noticed.
"Cold? A cold matters?" Brodie said with surprise, as if he hadn't heard me either. "This is the stuff of legends, Mum, a thing I've read and dreamed about all my life. Funny, isn't it, how you always knew it was real? I could travel in time the way you did. Well, not precisely the way you did, because I'm fully prepared to enjoy every moment. "
"I was also a good deal older, with your dad along."
"Sounds like I'll have more fun, then." Brodie grinned. "Besides, I'll have my best mate and your second best."
"You make me sound like an expensive suit coat no one wants to wear," Dad said. I giggled.
"You make me sound like I'm not mental even to consider this," Mrs. Taylor said with a glimmer of wry humor.
"I expected to try to convince someone who'd never even thought about time travel," Dad said, his face serious. "You could go too, if you wanted, but you don't have to. I wouldn't have come if I couldn't keep a kid safe."
Mrs. Taylor only said, "You want to experiment."
"No! That is… no-o. Just a bit? I reckon Brodie will function in another time better than we will, but if he ends up out of time after all… what's wrong with that?"
Lydia Taylor looked into him for what seemed like ages. I tried to exchange a glance with Brodie but couldn't with our parents between us. No one said anything to urge or dissuade her, but my heart began to pound. If she said no, I'd have to leave.
The chair creaked as she stood and pulled her mobile out her pocket. Next the only sounds were her pacing and texting.
If I leave, will I ever see Brodie again? Will I see anyone I know but Dad? Whatever he says, I can't just walk out the instant she turns us down—
Eventually, she glanced up from the screen and said, "Mark's on his way home. He says Brodie can go out, but both of you had better be here to meet him within twenty-four hours. Mind you that!"
"Yes!" Brodie cried. "Thank you!"
I felt a dry sob of relief and smothered it with a laugh.
"Twenty-four hours your time," Mrs. Taylor amended. "Our time, he's here for dinner."
"I promise we'll get back when he was. Absolutely. We could even be home before we leave."
"I'd not miss dinner," Brodie said. "Food in the past isn't sanitary, and food in the future is always pills or something gross."
Dad gave him an odd look. "At any rate, we'd better move on."
"Do I need anything?" Brodie looked at his mum for suggestions.
"We-ell." Dad scratched his neck. "I hate to be a parent before a road trip, but using the toilet is a good idea."
After my turn, I inspected my reflection. No dark circles or bags under my eyes yet, but according to Murphy's Law my body clock would kick in at the worst possible time. Even best case scenario, I crash the second Brodie's back here. Probably in heaps of tears. My hair looked stringy from the wind; I wished I had a hairband. Stupid, stupid head didn't think to bring anything practical.
I heard the ebb and flow of voices as I walked back down the hallway. "…to tell a story," the more familiar one said.
"I imagine that's often," said the throaty one back.
A light laugh. "I get lost more than you might think."
"How's that?"
"All my best stories have Rose in somewhere, and no one understands."
I stopped dead and registered the words. I made Brodie's best stories? Not just the "you had to be there" type of thing?
"The worst isn't that she's out of her time. It's that she's not in mine. Is that selfish? I don't…" I pictured Brodie shaking his head.
Dad paused; I strained to hear. "She's my daughter. Don't you break her heart."
I tried not to breathe. No, too suspicious. Steady on.
"She's my best mate." A note of pleading entered Brodie's voice. "I could say the same."
If you talked about me like—like a piece of property while I was gone, I'll break your faces.
I knew Brodie wanted to look out for me, but he didn't know what had already happened. I didn't know my dad enough to make decisions on three little words, but there could be love or possession there. I could tell them both a little about broken hearts right now, I thought with strange calmness.
Before I gave myself a chance to calculate that any further, I walked straight into the room. "What did I miss?" I added rather coldly, "What could I have possibly missed in one minute?"
They both started. Mrs. Taylor sat absorbed over a piece of paper, inexplicably humming "Sosban Fach."
"Nothing," Dad said in a less-than-seamless recovery. "Something. Plans."
"Mum, why don't you tell her what that list is?"
She flicked her gaze up for half a mo. "A note to remind me that I'm preparing dinner for five and why I have a splitting headache."
Brodie reached out. "May I add something? Thank you." He scribbled a note and stuck the pencil behind his ear. "So you'll remember even though they're out of time."
"Brodie…" Her grey eyes found his brown ones. Time had made her seem so young till then. "You're involved. My son is time traveling, out of time or not. I may not think of you every moment, but I'll never forget." She exhaled and whipped the list back. "Unfortunately, I don't trust my memory of anything else. I wish your dad was here already."
Not that he'd remember better. Not that he'd help. Just that having someone beside you gives courage. Just that she wanted him. I wished I could say that about someone without having to say the real problem.
I expected goodbyes to drag out, but we all made it to the doorstep in seconds. Mrs. Taylor looked closer to Dad's height from the doorstep as he fit the watch into the door with its mechanical vooosh. He and I stepped inside and hung up our coats while Mrs. Taylor folded Brodie into a strong hug.
She sang a few lines of "So Long, Farewell" before she let him go. They probably said they loved one another, but I didn't eavesdrop again.
"Thanks again!" Brodie said over his shoulder as he leaped in with us. With superhuman will, Mrs. Taylor shoved the time machine door shut behind him.
"Well, I never. She wants to be rid of me," Brodie joked.
"You flatter yourself," Dad said.
I pressed myself to the door. She'd never think of me, but I fancied I could sense her leaning against the other side, breathing hard.
Dad shouldered through the tapestries but left them closed. "Wait for the drumroll!" he told us. Soon I heard a song I didn't recognize.
I tilted my head. "Well? Want to see what all the fuss is about the man behind the curtain?"
Taking deep breaths, we each pulled one back. The sun, overhead now, blazed down on every clump of thyme and shone in every knot of the steering. Brodie started to gasp and laugh at the same time. "It's smaller on the outside?"
"Aren't they always?"
Weellll, I didn't really understand this chapter. I could only read though half and I gave up. This is just getting so confusing. I really didn't catch what they meant and all.
I didn't find any humor where I knew you tried to make it humorous.
And as I have said before, I can't tell you if there is any opportunities for British-isms.
Maybe I will read it again....later. When I might understand it better.
And if I do, I'll be telling you what I think.

The main problem with this
The main problem with this story is that the plot makes much more sense if read all at once, and is rather complicated to remember between section updates. Maybe if you could post a "last time on...." summery at the top of each new section?

I'm also confused, but it's more of the type of still not knowing the backstory I really desperately want to know that makes me want more than a chapter at a time, because in time I'm sure you'll tell it.

Very confuzzling, but also interesting. I look forward to seeing where you go with it-don't be discouraged!

I have to agree, this chapter
I have to agree, this chapter is kind of confusing at times, but I also agree that it is probably because we are reading only a chapter at a time.
Once I reread it, I understood it pretty well.
I think that this chapter is great! The only thing that I didn't like was how little time it took for Brodie's mom to say he could go. At the same time, I guess that just illustrates how much she trusts Rose's dad.
I liked how you ended it too.
"It's smaller on the outside?"
"Aren't they always?"
I guess part of why I like this is because I am a Doctor Who fan. I guess I'm so completely used to "It's bigger on the inside?" that I've never really thought that maybe, just maybe, it is actually smaller on the outside. :) I like it. :) And Rose's (At least I think it's Rose talking) response is great too. "Aren't they always?" :)
I love it!

~John Piper
Oddly, I'm going against the crowd here. I thought all the previous chapters were impenetrably confusing, and this one made sense. Well, mostly. There were a some sections where I hadn't the slightest idea what they were taling about, but that was mainly due to the Mr. Watcher / Brodie's parents backstory that (since I was confused about in the last chapter as well) I don't really understand.
British-isms: Actually, I thought there were too many. I think it sometimes works in dialogue, but I didn't appreciate the narrative voice (which I know is Rose, but... you know what I mean?) saying things like "half a mo". I really think that, while the British-isms are important (since the characters are, after all, British), you have the freedom to pick and choose which ones you really need, and where you really need them/want them for literary reasons.
So those are my criticisms. But I have things I really like too!
Such as: That Brodie has a cold. Because characters never have colds when something exciting is happening to them. (Also I just plain like Brodie. He's great.) And sometimes you put in little things, like the thought/sense Rose has about Brodie's mother on the other side of the door, that are great because they're just little things but they have real impact.
I hope you find these comments helpful... And keep at it!
I would really appreciate
I would really appreciate knowing the back-story of this. I think you should really summarize what happened in the previous chapters like (I forget who said). It's already the 7th part, and we readers barely understand what is going on, and or I am not sure if I can continue like this much more. I know you want us to be filled with suspense, but something tells me that this isn't the way you do it. Because now we are totally confused.
Good descriptions, but sometimes, they are not clear "right off the bat". e.g. the paragraph about the cardboard box and Brodie.
Brodie's mom does not seem to hesitate so much to let Brodie go...and I think you should have developed that more.
And I didn't get the joke at the last two paragraphs.
Why do they have to time-travel? Why does Rose keeps saying that Brodie's mom won't remember her? Why does Brodie have to go?
"You said—" My finger swung from him to his mother. "—that you had a, a—" I giggled more than I'd smiled all day. That sounded really corny to me.
That's all the criticisms I have.
Don't get discouraged, but I can't find anything particularly good in this chapter. Not that your work on this chapter has been useless, but I just can't find anything. Not that I didn't like this chapter; just I found nothing that stood out from your previous chapters.
Write more soon!
"It is not the length of life, but the depth of life." Ralph Waldo Emerson
Kestrel: That is a marvelous
Kestrel: That is a marvelous idea. It's a bit late for this one, but I can do so for the rest.
Kyleigh: I will reveal certain amounts of backstory. But I seem to have presented some that didn't quite get across. How much of David's backstory with Mark and Lydia do you guys still need? I'm going to go into more detail about the day they found the time machine, but other than that, I thought their exchange in the previous chapter was enough.
Erin: No, no, this kind of criticism never discourages me to the point that I stop writing. I sigh over it and think hard about what to do with it, which is how I figured out I'm a writer. When people critique me in other areas, my gut reaction is always, "WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW? THANKS FOR CRUSHING MY DREAMS." LOL.
Elizabeth: Yeah, I wasn't sure about how much time to take on Lydia's thought process. I didn't want to drag the chapter out with it... I've gotten conflicting remarks on that from some other friends, so I'll debate more about it. And yes, that was Rhosyn. :) I'm glad you appreciated the remark!
Hannah: "impenetrably"? Uh-oh. I've tried to take your advice and have less clutter between the dialogue, but I like to add physical grace notes because they work better than adverbs to show you what the characters are feeling. At least, that's what I thought. As for "half a mo," I had wondered about that for the same reasons. I've changed it in my copy, and I'll keep that in mind. Thank you!
Lucy Anne:
Er, sorry about the cardboard box thing. I meant it was a tissue box. With Brodie's mum, I refer you back to my response to Elizabeth - yes, I am thinking about it, but I don't know what to do. The joke at the last two paragraphs... well, even if you aren't familiar with other time travel vehicles, Brodie's comment is something of a subversion of what Rhosyn said when she first saw the time machine. ("It's bigger on the inside?")
As for the rest of your questions... I mean, they don't HAVE to time travel. David and Rhosyn kind of do, because they can't go back to their times, and if they can't be remembered, they'd probably starve to death or something. I thought I had explained why Lydia doesn't remember Rhosyn - because Rhosyn is out of time and Lydia's not. True, Lydia has a good amount of focus on David, but they have history from back when he was in his own time, which helps a great deal. Is that clearer? And Brodie certainly doesn't HAVE to go time traveling, but I thought it was fairly evident why he'd want to. (His best mate, who disappeared and whom he may not see again in a long time, has invited him to do something he's read stories and stories about. That'd be a good enough reason for me.)
What if I cut that last sentence to just "I giggled"?
Thanks for taking more time on this. I'm sorry the chapter isn't anything new... I'm just trying to get them out the door and into the future. Hopefully the next things will be more exciting!
I have hated the words and I have loved them, and I hope I have made them right. --The Book Thief
Thanks for clearing things
Thanks for clearing so many things up...I think I am slowly, SLOWLY getting this story. As long as you follow Kestrel's suggestion to summarize things, and things get to be explained.
The last sentence "I giggled" is much better.
Thank you for writing! :) PLEASE WRITE MORE. SOON...or more like-- NOW.
BTW, did you get my note at the camp OR not??

I'm glad I could help. I will indeed include summaries now... It's my own fault for making y'all wait. Hopefully now that I'm home from my trips, I'll get to write the next chapters. And yes, I did get your note! How was your VBS? I prayed for you, too. :)
I have hated the words and I have loved them, and I hope I have made them right. --The Book Thief
Thanks SO much for praying!
Thanks SO much for praying! The VBS went well. Although it was extremely tiring, it was fun. I had a nice time getting to know the children there and teaching them. :) It required lots of patience though. And because of all of the people who prayed for me, I didn't lose my patience and also, some days, I didn't feel as dead tired as I thought I would be. Thanks for praying! :)
SO you were staff at the camp? I wasn't sure. How was YOUR camp?

Some more new shiz of this season, in short:
The things worth your time (especially in bold):
- The Almost Impossible Game Show
- American Housewife
- Channel Zero
- Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency
- Divorce
- Eyewitness (more on this below)
- Frequency
- Glitch
- Good Girls Revolt
- The Great Indoors
- Hart of the City
- Haters Back Off
- Him
- Insecure
- The Living and the Dead
- People of Earth
- That Awkward Game Show
- Timeless
- Tracey Ullman's Show
- Westworld
- Wolf Creek
The things that may or may not be worth your time, a.k.a. Meh:
The things not worth your time:
Old shit, no longer worth your time:
Okay, so, Eyewitness: The shit is good. Maybe even great. The thing about it is, though, that I've seen the original 6-episode Swedish series this it's based on, which I loved. So, of course my brain is constantly comparing the two as I watch this Americanized iteration. It's written by the creator of Shades of Blue, which I really didn't love so that may not be much of a selling point, but what I mean to say is: it's completely written by him. Adi Hasak sat down and fleshed out a complete, expanded 10-episode story which will have a conclusion. And the series itself was sold to USA as an anthology, so if there is a second season, it'll be completely new. With all the hoopla these past few years with the seemingly endless cliffhangers and plot holes and unfinished stories, a proper ending is a magical thing to have and should be savored every time that comes around.
Not to mention: at the center of the small-town-murder-mystery story is a gay teenage romance that's actually fucking respectful, doesn't shy away from the sex real-life teenagers actually have, and doesn't treat it like it's something to be frowned upon while simultaneously accurately portraying the emotional struggle that comes with actually being a teenager accepting their sexuality. ACTUALLY.
The shit is good, I tell you. Just… a skosh less good than the original. Which, if I'm being honest, is probably the only reason it's not bold in the list above. But you should watch it. Now. Go. Bye.

text: Digital Martin Eli Weil Has Left The Building By Pandora Young|February 27, 2009 Share By Pandora Young|February 27, 2009 Share We hear from the LA Times that restoration architect Martin Eli Weil has passed. Weil was found dead in his home on Tuesday and is believed to have died from a heart attack. He was 68.Weil was a founding member of the L.A. Conservancy, an architectural preservation organization started in 1978 as part of an effort to prevent the demolition of the LA Central Library downtown. He supervised the meticulous restoration of Frank Lloyd Wright's Storer House alongside the famous architect's grandson, Eric Lloyd Wright. The Storer House is considered to be the best-preserved of Wright's designs in Los Angeles. Lauren Schlau, a friend of Weils and former president of the West Adams Heritage Association, tells the LAT, "This is a big loss for the preservation community." We've had enough arguments with snotty New Yorkers about the merits of historic L.A. architecture to know just how true that is.The restored Storer House in the Hollywood Hills: Share http://adweek.it/2l0JK3T copy Adweek Adweek

Working on a new photo series. It's about the unintended beauty and layers of history in NYC. Check it out!
Decayed Subway Posters
Winter Walk
Took some photos with my new 5D! Used a fixed 50mm. Loving this new camera.
I'm a Big Winner!
In exciting news, I just won $15,000 for an internet start-up I've been working on called Local Desk! My partner, Mariana Vasconcellos, and I came up with the concept for an entrepreneurial class we took at the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism. Media guru Jeff Jarvis teaches the class. He helped us out a ton with the project. He also kept me focused with his unrelenting energy.
Here's the project's elevator pitch: the Local Desk will be a platform for editors to assign stories locally to reporters and citizen journalists.
Here's how it works: editors can post stories, which will display in real time in descending order. Reporters or citizen journalist can then answer the assignment post letting the editor know their ability to cover the story. Editors would then be able to verify the reporters through their profile page, which would include a resume, clips and reference. Journalists can also pitch stories, which editors, bloggers and community members can view.
We're planning to start out in Brooklyn and expand from there.
I'll keep you all posted on our progress!

« IndietroContinua »
them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
5. Q. What think you of going to law?
A. That as it may be managed both by the counsellor and the client, it is as much theft as ever the late punished; and will, as such, be required of both by God. And therefore, though such cases there be in which a Christian may go to law without violating this, or any other command; yet it is certainly the last resort, and not to be used till all other means have proved ineffectual to secure our property, or to recover our right. And, for the most part, it is in law as in war, where one side is certainly in the wrong, and generally both are to blame: and let those who by their purse, their tongue, or their art, defraud another of his right, know assuredly, that however they may build up their bouses by iniquity, and escape the punishment of man for what they do, yet they shall not be acquitted at the tribunal of God for it.
Proofs Subjoined.—Matt. v. 40. And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also. 1 Cor. vi. 1, 6, 7. Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints? but brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers. Now, therefore, there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
0. Q. What are the duties which this commandment requires of us?
A. *To be fair and upright in all our dealings: * Nor willingly to wrong, or be accessary to the wronging of any: * if we should happen to have un. willingly injured any man, to be ready, as far as we are able, to make him a full and ample restitution for it: * to be free and charitable to the poor: * careful to provide a competent subsistence for our families; *aud diligent in pursuing some honest and useful calling in order thereunto.
Proofs Subjoined.—Psalm xv. 1, 2. Lord, who shall dwell in thy tabernacle? Who shall abide in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. Prov. xvi. 11. A just weight and balance are the Lord's. Ezek. xxxiii. 15, 16. If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die. None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned unto him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live. Micah, vi. 8. He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God. £pb. iv. 28. Let him that stole, steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his own hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth. 2 Thess. iii. 11, 12. For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busy-bodies. Now them that are such, we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
Sect. XXXI. Of our Duty with relation to his good Name and
Repulation. Of Calumny, Eril-speaking, fc.
1. Q. What is the ninth commandment?
A. Thou shalt not bear false w tness against thy neighbour.
2. Q. What do you here understand by bearing of false witness?
A. The false accusing of, or witnessing against him in judgment; which is commonly attended with perjury, as well as lying, and so becomes an offence at once against the third commandment, by our laking God's name in vain; and against this of injuring our neighbour, by bearing false witness against him.
PROOFS SUBJOINED. —Prov. vi. 18, 19. These six things doth the Lord hate : yea, seven ure am abomination unto him: a proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, an heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swifi in running to mischief, a false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren. Luke, iii. 14. He said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any fulsely; and be content with your wages.
3. Q. Is there any thing else forbidden in this commandment?
A. There is; namely, all sort of calumny and evilspeaking against any; whether it be in or out of judgment. Tit. iii. 2. Put them in mind, to speak evil of no man.
4. Q. How do you distinguish between calumny and evil-speaking ?
A. By calumny I mean a reproach falsely raised
upon, and reported against, an innocent person. When we are the makers, as well as spreaders of an untruth; at least, do know what we say of our neighbour to be false, or have just reason to believe it to be so. By evil-speaking, I understand, the relating of what is or has been told to us as true; when we do it not to the person concerned, for the better discovery of the truth; or, to some friend of his, in order to his being admonished of it; but to our indifferent acquaintance: and that whether it be done with a design to defame him, or only in the common way of discourse, which makes but little difference with respect to our neighbour's reputation, how much soever it may lessen our own guilt.
Proofs Subjoined.—Exod. xxiii. 1. Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked, to be an unrighteous witness. Psalm xxxi. 19, 20. O, how great is thy goodness which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
Lev. xix. 16. Thou shalt not go up and down as a tale-bearer among thy people. Psalm xv. 3. He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. He that doeth these things shall never be moved. Prov. xi. 13. A tale-bearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter, xviii. 8. The words of a tale-bearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly, xxvi. 22. The words of a tale-bearer, 6fc.
5. Q. Is there any thing more forbidden in this commandment?
A. To this commandment must be reduced all * subornation offalse witnesses in j udgment; al I * credit or countenance that is given to them; all * counterfeiting of hands, and seals, or any other writings, to his prejudice; all * tale-bearing, * rash speaking, and * censuring; all * credulity, or being ready to believe what is evil of our neighbour; all * encouragement that is given to those who are apt to speak evil of other men.
Proofs Subjoined.—1 Kings, xxi. 10. And she (Jezebel) wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people: and set two men, sons of Belial, before him to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. Matt. xxvi. 59. AW the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death. Psalrn xv. 1, 3. Lord, who shall dwell in thy tabernacle, who shall abide in thy holy hill? He that backbileth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. Matt. vii. I, 2. Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. Eph. iv. 25. Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour.
6. Q. What is required of us by this commandment?
A. To * be religiously strict in speaking truth of our neighbour; * not only to take care that what we say be true, but that by our manner of delivering it, by

what is interface testing?
I am new to testing and want to know about different types of testing.
Doctor Asked on December 16, 2014 in Software Testing.
Interface testing is conducted to evaluate whether systems or components pass data and control correctly to one another. It is usually performed by both testing and development teams.

There appears to be an issue in CC2017 and CC2015 with the menu item 3D Show/Hide Polygons.
Selecting an area and hiding the polygons works correctly - however Reveal All - remains greyed out in the menu so the polygons cannot be unhidden.
I checked in CS6 and this feature works as expected (i.e. once polygons are hidden then Reveal All becomes available to unhide them) .

Last spring, a flurry of text messages began to fly between two mothers. One mother, preparing to expand her family by one active toddler, was busy getting a new car seat installed, diapers bought, and a crib set up. Meanwhile, I, the other mother, was putting together boxes of clothing, medical paperwork, and albums full of photographs and memorabilia telling the story of a child's first year and a half.
We texted about the types of food he would gobble up (everything) and the lovey he slept with every night. I shared schedules and medical history and milestones and practical details of the transition from a Department of Children and Families foster home to a permanent one. We forged a relationship in the most basic desires for a child: safety, security, and unconditional love.
The anticipatory grief, the thought of handing over a child who, I knew, was mine to mother only in an interim space, was almost too much to bear. A mewling infant had been handed to us on a cold December evening, and on a warm, almost-summer evening, he would wave goodbye to us with chubby toddler fingers. I had to keep reminding myself, as I found stray toys under the couch and fingerprints on the glass fireplace doors, that we were a stopping point for this child on his journey, that we had kept him safe for as long as we could, until he found a permanent place to call his own.
But the hurt was still there, the knowledge that something incredibly painful was going to have to happen in order for his future to begin. I found myself crying at every short handoff for a visit with his new adoptive family. His new mother, whom he would eventually call "Mommy" and ask for when he skinned his knee or had his heart broken or just wanted a soft place to land, hugged me fiercely as tears formed in my eyes. As a mother to two young ones herself, she knew that my anguish, though only temporary, would be equal to her joy. I was so happy for their family, but I wondered, selfishly, if there would still be a place for the people who were there when he took his first steps, and tried new foods, and learned exactly what would happen if he pulled the cat's tail.
The official transition day came, and as we unpacked the last few boxes and got him settled into his new home, gift bags for my two children appeared. They were suffering through this, too, and framed pictures of them with their foster brother and thank you cards from his new mother acknowledged their sacrifice as well. It was an incredible gesture in a difficult moment, and I will remember it forever.
We could have assumed that that goodbye, that wave of the fingers at the back porch door, accompanied by the wailing of our two children as we pulled down the driveway, was the last; after all, they had a new family to form, new traditions to make, and a new normal to develop. But that wasn't the case.
Hard work on the part of both families, as well as dinners, sleepovers, and FaceTime chats, have allowed for this transition from one home to another to seem seamless. Instead of narrowing his family life, we've all expanded our own.
I wanted him to have every new milestone and memory with his new family, but in the same breath, I desperately needed him to know how loved he was in his time with our family. I didn't want him to ever question the love of the person who mothered him in the beginning of his life, and I hope he'll always know a family that is as wide as the world.
