Hi Ellen, I read your post about seat vs waist arnes and i have the exact impression, I have very long legs, and short space between hip and ribs. All the guys from my club keep telling me i am old fashioned using the seat arness, but i did a great progress by changing from waist to seat, and the main progress was that i could sail for hours with out getting back pain. I use it both with 8.mts sail (my biggest) and 4 mts. The hook is always at the height of my navel wich is just fine for every condition and stays there. With the waist arnes i had to set the boom at the highest position and felt really unconfortable. This is the first time I find someone with my same thoughts. Windsurf should be fun, and back pain is no fun!!! Ja Jaa.

|Enter the sum: 19 + 19 = (What is this?)
Hey All,
Given all that has been going in in Syria of late, we felt it would be worthwhile to put out something from NH Peace Action. Obviously, it is a tough issue with a great many complications, which is why very few peace organizations across the country has said much at all. In fact, I have not seen any peace organization with a statement at all. Here is ours, I hope it helps you to think about this complicated issue, articles will be forthcoming on the website. Also, please listen to Phyllis Bennis (the second speaker in this video) from the Institute for Policy Study: http://www.ips-dc.org/media/video_phyllis_bennis_syrias_opposition_wants_more_arms
By John Lamperti (NH Peace Action 501c(4) board chair and National Peace Action Board Member), and Will Hopkins (Director, NH Peace Action, NH Peace Action Education Fund)
Especially since the Huala Massacre, there is increasing debate about how the US should react to violence against civilian populations in Syria. While there is no one obvious solution, many possible actions could make things worse. Peace Action believes that the physician's maxim "First, do no harm" should be our country's starting point.
Although at present the outcomes of the "Arab Spring" are unknown, many in the West view the uprisings across the Middle East and North Africa positively, as people taking control of their national destinies. The uprising in Egypt was successful with relatively little blood spilled, while elsewhere protests have been met by extreme violence. In those countries to which the U.S. government is unsympathetic, especially Libya and Syria, US media have extensively covered civilian deaths and violence. The peace movement must hold to a single standard and equally denounce atrocities in US "allies" that allow US bases and access to their resources.
In its turn, the Syrian regime headed by Bashar Al-Assad has used tactics up to and including the mass murder of civilian populations to put down the uprisings. We in the peace movement should condemn these actions in the harshest of terms.
At the same time, we insist that military intervention by the US is not acceptable. Such interventions are widely seen as imperialistic opportunism rather than a hand offered in the name of justice. It may appear callous to hold back in the face of great injustice, but this revolution must belong to the Syrians for it to lay the foundation for a new and better nation.
We in the peace movement must remember our commitment to nonviolent change. We should resist the pressure toward military "solutions," and seek for all possible ways to aid the victims of war and to find negotiated agreements to end the violence. Our goals must be to empower the people of Syria to build a better nation -- and to build a better nation here at home.
Looking forward to seeing you all at the annual meeting on the 23rd!

The academic curriculum of the BSc programme covers areas of both economics and business, thus allowing students to get a wider perspective and thus have more career options after graduation.
The core courses combine mainstream economics with various aspects of business. The four main blocks are as follows:
- Economics courses - include courses that cover the main areas of theoretical, applied and quantitative aspects of the subject, including also international and European aspects of economics. These courses advance understanding of the choices and behaviour of individuals, households, firms, and other organizations.
- Finance and Accounting courses - focus upon capital markets, finance, management accounting, financial accounting and financial management.
- Business Administration courses - provide an understanding of business, organisation, and strategy including common functionally based business courses and the courses in Ethics and Sustainable Business and Economic Anthropology that have become especially significant in recent years alongside a growing concern with the ethical practices of business and a more profound understanding of the nature of business.
- Communication courses - teach powerful communication skills that enable undergraduates to bridge the gap between the everyday life and the university, be more effective in academic and professional situations and give professional training in team building and team dynamics. Given that the language of instruction is English, there is a strong emphasis on upgrading the knowledge and skills in communicating in English at an advanced level.
A range of elective courses is offered.
Introduction to Academic Studies
Consumer Behaviour
Specialisation: Economics
Financial Mathematics
Core Courses Schedule 2017/2018 (xls) >
Elective Courses Schedule 2017/2018 (xls) >
Specialisation Courses
In the beginning of the last study year students should choose two from the three specialisation courses offered:
- Economics - focuses on an in-depth analysis of the role of the banking system in the economy from micro and macroeconomic perspectives.
- Finance - starts with topics on financial markets, including market design, price discovery, liquidity, informational efficiency and bubbles. This is followed by behavioural finance and portfolio management, corporate valuations and private M&A. The course emphasises empirical finance research methods that are relevant for the various topics.
- Retail - offers a general management view, covering a broad range of functional topics including strategy, online and offline marketing, operations and supply chain.
Each specialisation course aims to make every student a specialist within the area.
Bachelor's Thesis
To incorporate all the knowledge acquired during studies and to fulfill final degree requirements, students should undertake a major research task by writing a Bachelor's Thesis. A student can complete the Bachelor's Thesis individually or together with another student. Each student or pair of students developing a Thesis is entitled to a supervisor who advises regarding the planning and execution of the Thesis work. Additionally, SSE Riga provides a number of experts in selected fields who can give advise on the methodology and other parts of the Bachelor's Thesis.
When evaluating student performance, SSE Riga applies a 200 point grading system (0 – 99/fail; 100 – 139/pass; 140 – 159/pass with merit; 160 – 200/excellent). In the Diploma Supplement students receive an academic transcript with the SSE Riga grades and ECTS grades that make the academic grade transcript compatible with international standards.
In total, to qualify for the BSc degree, students should earn 125 credit points (187.5 ECTS) and present a Bachelor's Thesis.
Internships are an important supplement for the academic side of the programme. Students should have two internships during the summer breaks after the first and the second year of studies. Internships are obligatory, and based on the employer's evaluation and student self-evaluation reports, credit points are granted, verifying professional learning experience.
Internships take place during summer, when the study period is over, and usually last from 4 to 8 weeks. In total, all students must obtain at least 10 weeks of internship experience in order to graduate. The search process for internship placements is fully under student control. This process simulates a real job search, as students are actively looking for information about companies offering internships and participating in various career events.
Due to the fact that SSE Riga maintains close relationships with its alumni, quite a lot of job advertisements arrive via e-mail straight to students' inboxes. Furthermore, many get in touch with their future employers during the SSE Riga career fair, Days of Opportunities, which takes place every April and attracts more than 40 companies from the Baltics.
Internships serve as a good starting point for students to develop their professional network. Very often, students receive full-time job offers from their internship companies upon graduation.
The most popular companies for summer internships among SSE Riga students include the Central Bank of Latvia, KPMG, L'Oreal, Omnitel, Procter & Gamble, SEB Group, Swedbank, and various others.
Further opportunities
The BSc programme gives students the skills and knowledge needed to be successful in their workplaces after graduation. Further opportunities for an SSE Riga graduate are broad even during an economic downturn – students are appreciated by the top companies in the Baltics, and are welcome to pursue their academic interests in top-notch universities all over the world.
About one-fourth of SSE Riga recent graduates have found employment in accountancy, auditing and banking. During the last five years there has been a growing interest in IT and marketing related jobs as well as in positions in public institutions. A number of students start their own businesses. A few students undertake further study for a Master's degree right after graduation, but the majority prefer working for a few years and then pursuing graduate studies.
International faculty, frequent guest lectures, pan-European events and close cooperation with the business community significantly widens the perspective of SSE Riga students. It enables them to see more opportunities in both the corporate and academic world.
Our Facultyhttp://www.sseriga.edu/en/contacts/faculty/
Graduates of SSE Riga enter the labour market well-equipped not only with theoretical, but also with practical tools obtained during numerous course projects and internships.

CNN's Iditarod coverage is heavily weighted toward promoting the Iditarod.
CNN's Iditarod coverage is heavily weighted toward promoting the Iditarod. In the transcript from Paula Zahn Now, copied below, you'll see that many people spoke in favor of the race. Jo Sullivan from the ASPCA was quoted as saying she has concerns but does not condemn the Iditarod. Zahn didn't interview anyone who knew about the cruelties.
CNN's Science & Space web page has a gallery of Iditarod photos, an interactive race route, and a demonstration of a musher being outfitted. The web page gives the animal protection viewpoint last, with more far more space devoted to race hype.
Please educate the ASPCA about the cruetlies of the Iditarod and tell CNN to stop promoting the race.

Transcript of Paula Zahn's Show
ZAHN: Alaska's Iditarod dogsled race is heading into the homestretch today. Sixty-eight teams are still in the 1,100-mile race from Anchorage to Nome, battling the Alaskan winter and rugged wilderness.
The leadersZAHN: Alaska's Iditarod dogsled race is heading into the homestretch today. Sixty-eight teams are still in the 1,100-mile race from Anchorage to Nome, battling the Alaskan winter and rugged wilderness.
The leaders are about 120 miles from the finish line. And they wouldn't have made it this far if it weren't for some incredible athletes.
ZAHN (voice-over): They are the real competitors of the Iditarod, the four legged ones that cover 100 miles a day across some of Alaska's toughest, most brutal terrain. The race certainly takes a toll on humans. But in this marathon, it is the dogs that will ultimately win or lose.
TYRELL SEAVEY, IDITAROD MUSHER: A good dog has to have anything. There's far more to it than the strength and stamina. There's heart and the spirit of the dog.
ZAHN: Tyrell Seavey is only 20 years old but is already racing his second Iditarod. He and his team of huskies have spent a year of tough training getting ready for it. SEAVEY: It went the equivalent this winter on a dogsled from Anchorage, Alaska to Georgia, the driving distance. And this was this winter alone on a dogsled. That's enough time to bond with anything.
ZAHN: These sled racing dogs are especially bred Alaskan huskies. They're built run and to pull. But surprisingly, they're also known for their sweet dispositions, vital in keeping a team together through the harshest conditions.
SEAVEY: There's more things than I can ever list: wind, snow, rain, whatever you can run into, Moose. They're telling us we're going to get stomped this year.
ZAHN: The 16 dogs in a team will play different roles. Those up front are the lead dogs. They're the fearless take charge kind. The dogs behind them are called the swing dogs. They turn the sleds left and right.
To get through the nine-day to two-week race, these dogs eat an astounding 10,000 calories a day. Eight times as much, pound for pound, as a Tour de France cyclist.
SCDORIS: This is Angel. She's 4-years-old.
ZAHN: For first time Iditarod musher Rachel Scdoris, who is legally blind, her dogs aren't just her muscle; they are her eyes. Rachael relies on her 7-year-old dog, Duchess, to lead the team.
SCDORIS: I can just, you know, look at her a certain way or make a certain whistle and she's -- she just goes and does whatever it is I want her to do. I don't know how. She doesn't speak English.
ZAHN: Out on the trail, Rachael makes sure her dogs stay healthy.
SCDORIS: Well, I do a lot out there whenever we stop and check their muscles, you know, do -- do a little range of motion, see how well they can stretch, see if anything bothers them. And I'll check their feet, you know, look between their toes for web splits.
ZAHN: Dog hair is a big part of the Iditarod.
DR. STUART NELSON, IDITAROD OFFICIAL VET: We have a very elaborate protocol for evaluating the dogs before they start the race.
ZAHN: Dr. Stuart Nelson is the Iditarod's official vet.
NELSON: It starts about actually 3 1/2 weeks before the race. Every dog has an EKG, blood work, a physical exam, must be current vaccinations, dewormed, all that sort of thing. So it's -- it's a very time consuming effort to get the dogs to the finish line.
ZAHN: The dogs wear booties to protect their feet from ice and rocks. Imagine changing shoes on 16 dogs everyday. That's 64 paws that need attention. SEAVEY: Just like any kind of athlete that's physical and on their feet. For the dogs, it's wrists and soldiers, you know, similar to a runner's knees, hips, ankles, that sort of thing. Getting a sprained wrist is not uncommon.
ZAHN: If dogs do get in trouble, they can be dropped off at checkpoints along the way, where there's special color-coded medical attention.
NELSON: Most dogs that are dropped would be considered a white dog. They're probably just tired. They don't really need anything special other than a little time and rest.
But we are prepared, if we have a critical dog, we categorize that as a red dog. Then they're flown to a commercial hub and once again, reevaluated by veterinarians.
ZAHN: Besides all the fans of dogsled racing, there are also critics, people who say the Iditarod amounts to cruelty. One dog has died in every recent Iditarod. Last year, Norwegian racer Shadow Bokken (ph) lost his lead when one of his dogs collapsed after a particularly grueling stretch of trail.
JO SULLIVAN, ASPCA: Any time an animal is at risk or participates in an event that costs their life, there is absolutely a concern.
ZAHN: Jo Sullivan is with the ASPCA. While she doesn't condemn the Iditarod, she does warn that proper care and observation of the animals is needed.
SULLIVAN: Just like any other athletic event, people can push themselves. In this case, animals are part of the tool they need to succeed and will push themselves. And in this case, their animals are part of the tool that they need to succeed. They'll push themselves, through competition, beyond what's normal and what's expected.
One mush team at a time needs to make sure that their animals are well taken care of, well loved, well cared for by a vet and that they're not pushed past their point of endurance.
ZAHN: Iditarod vet Stuart Nelson promises here in Alaska, that's happening.
NELSON: I wouldn't be here if I thought it was cruel thing. My goal is to learn as much as I can about these dogs, to educate mushers of ways to work the race and that we can continually up the level of care for the animals. And you know, if it was cruel, I wouldn't be here.
ZAHN: Not all the dogs or human competitors will make it to the end of the Iditarod trail. Many teams do drop out because of injury or just plain exhaustion. Those who end up crossing the finish line in Nome are truly champions, whether they have two legs or four.
(END VIDEOTAPE) ZAHN: Such beautiful animals. We should tell that you race organizers now have confirmed that one dog did die in the race this past weekend. Her name was Rita. She was in sled racer Paul Gephardt's team, which is running in seventh place right now.

My SJW Meme Facebook Group Has Changed the Way I Make Friends
Having a social justice warrior meme group has brought people into my life who are serious about their politics and also fucking hilarious.
It started off innocently enough. One night after hitting up a few bars in celebration of a friend's birthday, I saw that I had a message from C. I met him when I studied abroad a few years back and haven't really talked to him since. I thought it was odd as this message came out of nowhere but it seemed harmless, asking to hang out.
But wait, I live on one coast while he's on the other...Okay, he must be drunk. He admits that he is when I ask and after a bit of back and forth came his confession: "I had a massive crush on you when we were in Japan." Why is he telling me this now? It's a little strange, but I continue talking until it becomes rather late on my side of the country and I say good night.
Fast forward two days later and I message him under the pretense that he will now be sober. He says he still stands by everything he said, though he apologizes for being drunk while saying it. Then he invites me to see him yet again, I mention I am too broke to afford such an outing, and he tells me paying for a trip to his city is the least he can do for me.
Did a guy I haven't seen/talked to in over three years just offer to pay for me to see him?
Yes, yes he did and after logistics were discussed I had myself a ticket. I was ecstatic, I was excited, and I had never visited the West Coast before. When I looked up the flight details to add my frequent flyer information to the ticket I saw it cost him probably double what it should have (last minute booking + holiday weekend=$$$). WHOA WHOA hold up what?! My friends and I were all shocked that he willingly spend so much on someone he wasn't dating but they hoped for the best for me.
Up until the trip we talked, he planned things for us to do and I found myself starting to like him. He told me he'd take this opportunity to actually make a move on me unlike before. It really seemed to me that he was trying to sweep me off my feet with all his preparations.
I finally get there, and everything is great, and conversation came naturally, I didn't sleep on the couch, and the plans he made for us were a lot of fun. But all the while I was a bit suspicious. My pre-departure social media stalking told me he had had a girlfriend, A, at some point. But I hadn't seen anything with the two of them too recently, his page said nothing about his relationship status and people in relationships don't fork over that much money to fly in past crushes, right? As you can probably guess I was wrong about that last question.
I saw signs of her in the apartment, but I dismissed my thoughts until I was told that she (he talked about her as a friend) was out of town for a bit visiting family. I found her absence too convenient. I found absolute proof via a method that he would call a flagrant violation of his privacy. As a utilizer of autofill, I was able to see his profile as he sees it when I borrowed his computer, relationship status and all.
The initial conversation went like this:
[He had been taking a nap, I turned on the lights] "C, wake up."
"Why did you invite me here if you're in a relationship with A and live with her?"
"....We have an open relationship."
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Would you have still come?"
I walked out of his/their bedroom.
His apologies were always coupled with qualifiers and excuses, "I'm sorry, but I meant everything that I said" (regarding liking me, etc). "I'm sorry, but I would have told you if you had asked."
What I wanted him to say was "I'm sorry, I didn't tell you because I was being selfish, wanted to see you, and thought you wouldn't come if I had told you of my relationship beforehand." Instead it was as though he knew what to say and what I wanted to hear but didn't believe what he was saying himself hence the excuses. He was sorry he was caught, not for the pain it caused.
After my anger and the panic-induced adrenaline subsided we started talking more easily. He was candidly answering my questions concerning the relationship that I had become an unwilling participant in. When it started, why, who. His girlfriend A was told I was there but not that he paid for me, I'm not sure if she thinks I was just a friend visiting.
He said A is the type that doesn't want to know the details about his outside relationships/excursions. I also learned he and A have a female third that they date both together and individually. They all date outside of the triad as well (although relations with their fourths? fifths? typically did not end well). What the hell did I get myself into?
The conversation turns from my questions into something more natural, the wine we had started drinking was taking effect. In all honesty the trip itself ended well despite the deception. Instead of dwelling on the negative, I was trying to focus on how great the trip had been otherwise.
It wasn't until a few days after my return that the gravity of the situation hit me. I recounted my story to too many people because I had told too many people beforehand in my excitement, all of my friends had the same reaction of disbelief.
I kept finding myself wanting to talk to him, and knowing there was nothing to gain from it, I was getting sadder and more upset at myself by the moment. A bottle of wine contributed to my breakdown and I found myself ugly-crying, drunk/mad texting him in a sports bar with friends that were unsure of the protocol in my situation.
Nothing good came out of this alcohol-induced emotionally-charged exchange. Now we don't talk. Lovely.
Although my models of open relationships or polyamory are not extensive, consisting of this relationship as described to me, "The Ethical Slut," and random internet forum readings, I would hope my situation is not the norm. I would imagine that full disclosure early on is a more common approach than misrepresenting yourself with the hope of not getting found out, regardless of how short term the relationship will be.
But unfortunately for me, most of the success stories I've found have come from the couple themselves, not their additional partners. I'm not sure what that means for the satisfaction of the non-primary partners.
At the end of the day, if he had told me, the purpose/outcome of my trip would have been clear. Sure, beforehand I would have hesitated, a lot, I might have not gone at all or at least have missed the open window of A being away. But like a friend lovingly told me while I was going through a period of self-pitying: he remembered YOU after all that time and flew you out because he remembered and thought of you. You had to have left quite an impression on the guy at the end of the day.
So here's to hoping this here was just a fluke.

text: I have a small problem with my EZFlash 3-in-1 when using the latest version of GBA_ExpLoader with an R4. The PSRAM, rumble and memory functions work great- however, when loading games into NOR more often than not the program will freeze and I am forced to reboot the DS. It always freezes at 94%, 95%- about a second away from completion. Interestingly, it does successfully load the game to the cartridge but does not load existing save data- nor, in fact, does it register that that game is present (so, I can use the game as a normal cartridge, I can even save, but it will not then backup it's save data when I switch to another game in NOR. At the moment, it is stuck as thinking that "Advance Wars.sav" is the revelent save file, as I manager to successfully NOR flash this game. However, Castlevania Arai of Sorrow is the actual game on the cart. I am not sure, but I think it is writing my Castlevania save data to the Advance Wars file. This problem occurs with a combination of game, SRAM patched, trimmed, both or none. Larger files seem to do it more but so does Mario Kart. It's not a major problem. Every part of the PSRAM playing works fine, and that's all I need. It just effectively removes my ability to use the 3-in-1 independent of the R4, in, say, my GBA. Any ideas why this problem might be occuring?

p>Satanism Linked to Priest's Murder in Chilean Cathedral
Assailant Invoked Devil's Name, Says Servite Superior
SANTIAGO, Chile, JULY 26, 2004 (Zenit.org).- The archbishop of Santiago decried the existence of Satanic groups in Chile in the wake of the weekend murder of a priest in the metropolitan cathedral.
Cardinal Francisco Errázuriz, archbishop of Santiago and president of the country's episcopate, made that observation Sunday, a day after Servite Father Faustino Gazziero de Stefani, 68, was slain after he had celebrated Mass.
The cardinal lamented that legislative proposals to curb Satanic groups have not been addressed with greater care.
"They have killed Father Faustino also for reasons of faith, for being a priest of Jesus Christ," the cardinal said.
"Satan, the prince of darkness, continues his struggle against the light, as though forgetting that he has already been defeated by Jesus Christ who resurrected after his death and is now the life, hope and light that illumines every human being," he added.
Authorities identified the assailant as Rodrigo Orias Gallardo, 25. Orias, who dressed in black, was armed with a knife, and wounded himself after attacking the priest, authorities said. Police said the assailant was not mentally disturbed or under the influence of drugs.
"It has been a terrible and unexpected tragedy," Father Bernardino Zanella, the vicar responsible for the Servites in Santiago, told the Missionary Service News Agency.
"This young man did not know Father Faustino," he said. "Inspired by the madness of Satanic groups, he attacked him, but he would have attacked anyone who was in that place at that time."
"A brother who was present in the cathedral told us that after killing Father Faustino, the youth knelt down by his side invoking Satan's name," Father Zanella reported.
The Servite vicar warned that "the phenomenon of Satanism in Chile, as in other countries of the world, is growing strongly. Numerous groups are active in the country, especially in the cities, although in recent years their presence has also spread to minor urban centers."
To date, these groups "had limited themselves to desecrate and commit acts of vandalism in sacred places and cemeteries, but it never happened that they attacked persons," the Servite added.
Father Gazziero was a native of Lozzo Atestino, Italy. He went to Chile in 1960, immediately after his priestly ordination.
For years he had been dedicated to education. He was president of the St. Teresa Foundation, which administers numerous schools in the country. He coordinated four schools of the Servants of Mary in Santiago.
He will be buried in the cathedral.
More of the diabolical in the world ping....
Does this make him a martyr and a saint?
1 Peter 5:8
Be selfcontrolled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
This is a tragic story, but we can see that good is gradually being restored within the Church, and that is why the diabolical attacks on her will increase.
They might want to review that conclusion. [irony]
I assume they meant by that that prior to this attack no one had noticed anything particularly abnormal in his behavior or cognitive functioning. That would seem a little extraordinary. There must be more to this.
Thanks. I figured Satanism was involved when I read the original story.
very sad.
From the article:"Police said the assailant was not mentally disturbed..."
They may be partially correct - in a way. A person involved in Satanic worship may or may not give any clues via his demeanor or behaviour. Although, there are many different types/levels of such inverted worship. Some do give away their "belief" by modes of dress, speech, etc. These are usually the lower eshelon in the pecking order. This person may well be a victim of "obsession".
But, I would comment that this person, is probably one whose involvement is on a lower eshelon. The more dangerous ones do not make themselves visible, much less so obvious. Ones like this person do the dirty work for the higher ups.
Good tagline... but I thought it was "Vade retro, Satana. Numquam suade mihi vana."
"Vade retro, Satana. Numquam suade mihi vana."
Well, that along with my tagline is one of many prayers of exorcism from the Roman Ritual. Now you are making me get out my dictionary to translate that one......
Translation: "Begone Satan! Do not suggest vain things to me!"
I assume they meant by that that prior to this attack no one had noticed anything particularly abnormal in his behavior or cognitive functioning.
I believe that one can be perfectly sane and still carry out evil acts, even such a horrible murder.
True. But someone babbling high weirdness about Satan, stabbing a priest, and then committing suicide would lead one to suspect mental/emotional imbalance of some type. Whether this was a sudden schizophrenic psychotic episode, a case of diabolic possession,a cult ritual murder or something else, there's no way to tell just from the article.
If no one had ever noticed anything strange or unusual about the murderer before this incident, that would certainly be very odd indeed.
If no one had ever noticed anything strange or unusual about the murderer before this incident, that would certainly be very odd indeed.
True enough. After reflection - I would agree. There is usually some clue, even a subtle one. So either nobody was paying attention, or nobody was "reading the signs aright"!
If the person in question was in a cult, it's certainly possible for them to keep a low profile. And even someone suffering from very bizarre schizoid psychotic delusions may appear "fine" on the outside to most people. But in general, you don't think of a perfectly "normal" person just all of the sudden snapping and murdering a priest for Satan. Of course, we are now living in spiritually bizarre times. Time for much prayer and vigilance.
ok - I wil have to remember that one! I recognized the concept of "vanity" in the phrase, but as my latin texts are packed away, and I dont use it in everyday work, I couldn't remember enough to even fake a correct translation.
Many thanks!
Like the Muslims which flew planes filled with innocent people into the WTC --- or who behead innocent people in the name of their satan.
Consoled to know that I am not the only one who sees the hand of the Holy Spirit at work in Holy Mother Church.
May God have mercy on the soul of this unfortunate priest.

GREENSBORO, N.C. --- The Department of Transportation reported 27 trees were knocked down in Guilford County from Wednesday night's storm. The high winds also led to some property damage in Greensboro.
The cleanup continued Thursday.
"It was scary, it was dark! It looked liked something out of a scary movie," Shenandoah Butler said of the storm.
A tree in Butler's neighbor's yard fell, smashing part of a fence and crushing the roof of her backyard storage shed.
On Thursday, her yard, garage and shed were covered with limbs and branches.
"I've never had anything like this," Butler added. "We've had some trees fall in the road, but never on part of the house."
Fortunately, the tree missed the back of her home where her son's bedroom is.
"He could have been crushed. I'm lucky, I'm glad, I'm blessed," she said.
The Department of Transportation crews are responsible for clearing any trees or debris that fall within 30 feet of the center of a state road or highway, according to Transportation Supervisor Mark Moore.
"Most of the trees we've seen coming down are dead trees, dead poplars," described Moore.
He and his crew cover the Southeast part of Guilford County for cleanup.
On Thursday, Moore's team tackled more than a dozen trees in or dangerously close to roadways in their territory.
One large tree fell across Smithwood Road at Bowman Dairy Road in Liberty.
The D.O.T. crew also responded to a tree down off Highway 421 South, which had to be chopped up and hauled off.
"We're still cleaning up some trees from The snow storm, also, the ice storm. So this storm just adds to it. We're just going around getting all we can find," Moore explained to FOX8.
In addition to the 27 trees down in Guilford County, there were 13 trees to clean up in Rockingham County and 16 in Caswell County overnight.

Bringing the story and songs of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons to life, Jersey Boys has been a smash on Broadway since it opened at the August Wilson Theatre on November 6, 2005. The musical lays out the tale of four blue-collar kids who went from petty criminals to pop sensations.
The La Jolla Playhouse first produced Jersy Boys in late 2004 for a three-month test run. It made its Broadway debut a year later with John Lloyd Young as Frankie Valli, Christian Hoff as Tommy DeVito, Daniel Reichard as Bob Gaudio, and J. Robert Spencer as Nick Massi. It was directed by Des McAnuff and choreographed by Sergio Trujillo.
With a book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, the story is set to tunes like "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," and "Can't Take My Eyes Off You." It spans over 40 years of their musical history, all the way back to their 1960s' start up through their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
From their heyday to their downfall, it's all in there. Unapologetically, bassist Nick Massi sums it all up by saying, "You sell 100 million records, and see how you handle it."
The Broadway staging has brought home numerous awards, including the 2006 Best Musical Tony Award, the 2006 Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album, and the 2009 Olivier Award for Best New Musical.
A New York Post critic proclaimed that it's "Too good to be true. It's terrific! The cast is plain wonderful. The book is as tight and absorbing as an Arthur Miller play. Jersey Boys is a show dynamically alive in music while, as a drama, it captures the very texture, almost the actual smell, of its time."
Touring productions began in 2006 and have received equally warm receptions. The Providence Journal wrote that Jersey Boys "deserves the glowing reviews. It's got an intriguing story to tell with lots of golden oldies tossed in for good measure, while the singing, especially the high falsetto licks from Joseph Leo Bwarie, is fabulous."
San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, and Philadelphia have all played host to Jersey Boys. In February of 2008, London's Prince Edward Theatre mounted a production bringing Jersey Boys to the West End.
Melbourne's Princess Theatre opened their staging in July of 2009. It was such a hit that Sydney brought it to town in 2010.
In addition to the touring companies and the Broadway production, Jersey Boys has an open-ended Las Vegas run at The Palazzo, as well. The Las Vegas Review-Journal staff voted it Best Show in Vegas for the past two years, saying, "…the group's crowd-pleasing 'Behind the Music' bio at The Palazzo fits the heart and soul of The Strip better than any Broadway hit tried here."

The -n option specifies that input and output z distances are along the view direction, rather than absolute distances to intersection points. This option is usually appropriate with a constant z specification, and should not be used with rpict(1) z files.
The -z option writes out interpolated z values to the specified file. Normally, this information is thrown away.
Pinterp rearranges the pixels from the input pictures to produce a reasonable estimate of the desired view. Pixels that map within the -t threshold of each other (.02 times the z distance by default) are considered coincident. With the -a option, image points that coincide will be averaged together, giving a smooth result. The -q option turns averaging off, which means that the first mapped pixel for a given point will be used. This makes the program run faster and take less memory, but at the expense of image quality. By default, two or more pictures are averaged together, and a single picture is treated with the faster algorithm. This may be undesirable when a quick result is desired from multiple input pictures in the first case, or a single picture is being reduced in size (anti-aliased) in the second case.
Portions which were hidden or missing in the input pictures must be "filled in" somehow, and a number of methods are provided by the -f option. The default value for this option is -fa, which results in both foreground and background filling. The foreground fill algorithm spreads each input pixel to cover all output pixels within a parallelogram corresponding to that pixel's projection in the new view. Without it, each input pixel contributes to at most one output pixel. The background algorithm fills in those areas in the final picture that have not been filled with foreground pixels. It does this by looking at the boundary surrounding each blank area and picking the farthest pixels to each side, assuming that this will make a suitable background. The -ff option tells the program to use only the foreground fill, the -fb option says use only background fill, and the -f0 option says not to use either fill algorithm.
Even when both fill algorithms are used, there may still be some unfilled pixels. By default, these pixels are painted black and assigned a z distance of zero. The -fc option can be used to change the color used for unfilled pixels, and the -fz option can be used to set the z distance (always along the view direction). Alternatively, the -fr option can be used to compute these pixels using rtrace(1). The argument to this option is a quoted string containing arguments for rtrace. It must contain the octree used to generate the input pictures, along with any other options necessary to match the calculation used for the input pictures. The -fs option can be used to place a limit on the distance (in pixels) over which the background fill algorithm is used. The default value for this option is 0, which is interpreted as no limit. A value of 1 is equivalent to turning background fill off. When combined with the -fr option, this is roughly equivalent to the -ps option of rpict(1).
In order of increasing quality and cost, one can use the -fa option alone, or the -fr option paired with -fs or -ff or -f0. The last combination will result in the recalculation of all pixels not adequately accounted for in the input pictures, with an associated computational expense. It is rare that the -fs option results in appreciable image degradation, so it is usually the second combination that is used when the background fill algorithm results in objectionable artifacts.
The -B option may be used to average multiple views read from the standard input into a single, blurred output picture. This is similar to running pinterp multiple times and averaging the output together with a program like pcomb(1). This option is useful for simulating motion blur and depth of field. (See also pdfblur(1).) The input views are reported in the information header of the output file, along with the averaged view. The picture dimensions computed from the first view will be the ones used, regardless whether or not the subsequent views agree. (The reported pixel aspect ratio in the output is determined from these original dimensions and the averaged view.) Note that the expense of the -fr option is proportional to the number of views computed, and the -z output file will be the zbuffer of the last view interpolated rather than an averaged distance map.
In general, pinterp performs well when the output view is flanked by two nearby input views, such as might occur in a walk-through animation sequence. The algorithms start to break down when there is a large difference between the view desired and the view(s) provided. Specifically, obscured objects may appear to have holes in them and large areas at the image borders may not be filled by the foreground or background algorithms. Also, specular reflections and highlights will not be interpolated very well, since their view-dependent appearance will be incompletely compensated for by the program. (The -a option offers some benefit in this area.)
The -e option may be used to adjust the output image exposure, with the same specification given as for pfilt. The actual adjustment will be rounded to the nearest integer f-stop if the -q option is in effect (or there is only a single input picture).

This is pretty amazing. Songwriter/musician Steve Failows (a.k.a. flakjakt) wrote Cascades in two days specifically for a project to see if he could produce a decent music video using the iPhone 4 camera. The video was shot in one and a third days and edited in two days. This is the result. Found at YouTube from flakjakt.

First of all a huge THANK YOU for all of the beautiful cards and gifts – some very imaginative and interesting ones this year!
Now for our great term, in a nutshell, we have studied WW1, led a very memorable remembrance day assembly, read Carrie's War and watched the film. Which did you enjoy most, book or film and why? In literacy we have acted out and written about the life of Walter Tull. If you get time to visit the memorial, at Sixfields, take a photo and find a way of sharing it with us. In maths we have worked hard at securing methods for multiplication and division. We are now exploring fractions, so here is a challenge for you – how many pieces can you cut a mince pie into? WARNING, it will get messy! An even bigger challenge is to take time to look at the revision site and play a few of the games. A few minutes a day will go a long way to starting the new year on top form.Revision Link
Thank you for making the last day of term a very festive and fun filled day. We were lucky enough to watch the Enchanted Kingdom, everyone was fascinated to see the seven realms brought to life on a big screen. This was followed by a delicious buffet, the opening of secret Santa presents and a visit from the big man himself, ho ho ho! (Santa not the BFG) We ended the day with board games, including a competitive game of Jenga – well done Jack!
Have a wonderful break with your family and friends and we look forward to an exciting, productive and successful new year.

I've been thinking about what to do for Lent for several weeks. I started early... even before Christmastide actually ended. Advent was amazing for me and I grew a lot as a person. Since then, I've also come to figure out what I truly feel called to do (vocation-wise) and a lot of changes need to be made in that department so I knew there was no better time to implement these changes than Lent. That's not to say that these are "what will make me look better?" changes. No, these are "what will help me live a holier life; one closer to God" changes. Most changes will be small and gradual but there are two that needed immediate attention: social media and what's been coming out of my mouth lately.
As you guys (who've been reading this blog for at least a year) know, I've struggled with my social media addiction for quite some time. I even gave it up in chunks last Lent (you can read about it here and here) and it went well... for a while. I had fallen off the limited-social-media horse when I got sick last summer and then I had to work on that again. I was doing well... and then I wasn't. Again. Are we noticing a pattern yet? I know I substituted Facebook and Twitter for Instagram in recent weeks so I decided to do a no social media fast every day, including Sundays and holy days. I spend too much time scrolling through Instagram, making sure I don't "miss" anything... and then I get sucked into seeing celebrity IG accounts. Who am I?! I never used to do this. Anyway, I've already let my friends know that they have options to contact me and I'm always willing to put something aside for a little while to catch up... unless I'm doing an exam then for that hour I'm not available. ;)
Now for the big one, which I know a lot of people are probably wondering about. I decided to give up talking because of two reasons. First, the things that have come out of my mouth in recent weeks have not been uncharitable or very ladylike. I'm not saying it's cussing (I don't like cursing); it's simply not nice. I lose my patience when I'm driving (which, apparently, is quite the epidemic here in L.A.) and I say things like "good job, stupid"... or worse. *cringe* (side note: this is a fairly new development and I'm pretty sure it has to do with my lack of Mass attendance). I usually say "good job, friend" but I haven't been as charitable lately.
Second, I've noticed that it's not only happening when I drive, it's happening overall. I feel like I'm wasting words; the conversations are becoming more shallow and empty, which I dislike. Instead of being positive, it's so easy to complain and feel sorry for myself during times of trials. It's so easy to vent to friends. Even if you think you're being careful, I know it can still come out as being uncharitable towards others. Instead of building up, the tongue can tear something or someone down and if we do it long enough, it becomes a bad habit that will land you in the confessional more often than not.
I'm not giving up talking altogether; I'm just going to be a lot more mindful about what I'm going to say before I say it. I'm going to warn those I usually talk to that I may reply a little slower than usual because I want to make sure that the words that come out of my mouth are used to glorify God, His creations, and/or build something or someone one up. I'm going to try to keep my mouth shut and literally walk away from situations that would tempt to do be uncharitable.
Those are the two big things I'm giving up for Lent. I'm also giving up TV, movies, and screentime (overall) during the remainder of the semester. I've been giving myself too much time to "rest" when I could be studying. My time management there has been really poor and that needs to be addressed but that might be easier to do. Study first, movies later... or movies during Sundays. I'm also limiting my books to Catholic books and books that will help me succeed in my social-media-fast / no frivolous chatter / better time management goals. No more YA fiction for a while.
Those are my plans for Lent. I didn't mention things I'm adding because those things (I feel) need to be done with only God as my witness. They are all good and positive so no worries there. :)
I will continue blogging throughout Lent. I might even blog more often if I don't get enough socializing... which I probably won't because all of my friends that lived nearby have moved away and everyone pretty much uses social media to stay in touch. lol. File this under "social introvert problems." I believe the blog posts will automatically post to both Twitter and Facebook via IFTTT. Awestruck and my Google+ profile won't be updated; I'm sorry about that if you keep up with the blog posts from those two places.
I hope you all have an enriching Lenten season. Congrats to the two (randomly chosen by Rafflecoppter) winners of the Magnificat Lenten Companion app: Lesley S. and Joe W.! :D
As always, thanks for reading and God bless! :D

New York State Banking Department Adopts Statement of Subprime Mortgage Lending
July 30, 2007
New York, N.Y.: The New York State Banking Department today announced the adoption of regulatory guidance covering underwriting standards, management practices, and consumer protection provisions that mortgage originators should follow when marketing and selling certain adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) products to subprime borrowers.
The statement was developed by the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS), the American Association of Residential Mortgage Regulators (AARMR), and the National Association of Consumer Credit Administrators (NACCA) in response to the federal financial regulatory agencies' Statement on Subprime Mortgage Lending that was released on June 29. CSBS, AARMR, and NACCA developed the statement to apply to lenders not regulated by the federal financial regulatory agencies.
Richard H. Neiman, Superintendent of Banks said, "This statement addresses many of the concerns we identified in the sub-prime mortgage markets." Mr. Neiman went on to explain, "The problems of subprime lending require immediate attention and we believe a coordinated effort among federal and state regulatory agencies is necessary to provide consistent and effective policy and overall supervision of the mortgage industry."
The CSBS/AARMR/NACCA guidance substantially mirrors the federal interagency statement agreed upon by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Office of Thrift Supervision, and the National Credit Union Administration, and supported by the FFIEC's State Liaison Committee.
However, the state mortgage regulators modified the statement to address issues particular to non-depository mortgage lenders and brokers who originate loans but do not hold them in portfolio. These lenders are generally licensed and regulated by the states.
In conjunction with the 2006 Interagency Guidance on Nontraditional Mortgage Product Risks, the statement offers sound underwriting and consumer protection principles that institutions and all residential mortgage providers should consider when making residential mortgage loans.
Beyond the Statement on Subprime Mortgage Lending, state regulators also plan to issue Examination Guidance for state supervisors to use in evaluating state-licensed mortgage lenders' compliance with the new requirements on lending to subprime borrowers.
TheNew York State Banking Department is the regulator for all state-chartered banking institutions, virtually all of the United States offices of international banking institutions, all of the State's mortgage brokers, mortgage bankers, check cashers, money transmitters and budget planners. The aggregate assets of the depository institutions supervised by the Banking Department are more than $1.8 trillion.
In addition to regulating banking institutions, the Banking Department is active in informing and educating all New Yorkers on banking matters. To contact the Banking Department, please call 1-877-BANK-NYS or visit our Web site at www.banking.state.ny.us.

Give Us 60 Days To Show Rank Improvement

If you are willing to do that, you may just have found a company you'll love working with. We'd certainly love to work with you.
Slow & Steady Wins the Race
Search Engine Optimization
The brutal truth about SEO. This probably should not even be on a sales flyer……….
SEO is the long-term play. SEO is also a combination play. The long road to a top organic ranking is fraught with setbacks along the way. Google assures it is a hard way to market yourself. Even though people think Google is a free search engine with some paid space, it is really a paid search engine with some free space, and over the years the free space has become more sparse. Today, it covers less than 55% of the average search results page and the trend is showing that over the next few years it will become less and less. Why? Simple! Google doesn't make any money from organic listings. Thus Google is getting more and more picky who the reputable businesses are to showcase on its "free" organic listings.
Additionally, we would like to point out that many people believe SEO is a cheap way to market yourself. While the long-term lead acquisition cost is certainly low, the short term acquisition cost is extremely high, much higher than Paid Search. This is due to the extensive ramp-up period. With SEO your opportunity cost starts very high and decreases over time. Once a high-ranking position is achieved, this position then needs to be defended to assure no other competitor is going to take it from you. You took the position from someone else and that business will most likely not stand by idle allowing you to take their leads. Thus SEO is an on-going battle of who will be in Google's best graces.
Why Choose Us:
Not only are we the top-rated SEO agency in Orlando, we are known nation-wide for our no-nonsense SEO approach. We pickup where others fail because our approach is not based on blind guess-work, but on a precise approach that has put countless clients at the top of Google.
Who Is This Best Suited For:
It is designed for those organizations who plan on growing 2 years, 3 years from now. SEO is not the best initial route for a start-up due to its long ramp-up period. While SEO will provide wonderful results, it can often take over a year to see a tangible ROI. Many business owners simply don't want to invest in that much time and effort before reaping the fruits of their labor. We recommend SEO as a secondary marketing approach, after the initial advertising is producing quality results.
What Can You Expect:
We strive for several core goals in your SEO process.
1. Improve your website traffic by 25% year over year.
2. Achieve page 1 rank on Google for your initial set of keywords within 12 months.
Get The Clicks reverse-engineers what your most successful competitors are doing online. We then develop a checklist, duplicating their efforts +1. This creates a transparent and unique work reporting system that is accompanied by a personal account strategist.

Schlafly to Senate Republicans: Thank You for Hearing the American People
Dec 01, 2010, 05:15 EST
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1, 2010 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Phyllis Schlafly, president and founder of the pro-family organization Eagle Forum issued the following statement about Senate Republicans' unanimous commitment to block all legislative business until Senate Democrats hold a vote on stopping the massive tax increase set to take effect when the Bush era tax cuts expire at the end of the year.
"On behalf of Eagle Forum and the families we represent, we thank Senate Republicans for listening to the American people and demanding that the government deal with the most important legislative issue at hand."
"The liberal Congress has gotten away with irresponsibly running the federal government without a budget, but American businesses and families don't have that luxury!"
"It is unconscionable for Congress to use the lame duck session to pay back liberal interests and to sneak through controversial nominees while American families and businesses face one of the largest tax increases during one of the worst economic recessions in history."
"We thank the Senate Republicans for putting their differences aside and putting the American people's interests before politics."

For many people, death is a long, slow, difficult process. Some people can live for many weeks on minimal nutrition, hovering in a state that seems more not-here than here, yet unmistakably alive. This can be painful to witness and stressful for a family to endure. Yet it's important to be prepared for this possibility, especially if you're a dementia caregiver, as this is a common end-of-life experience for people with dementia.
What helps:
Literally take each hour, each day, as it comes. You've probably been "living in the moment" for quite a while, and this philosophy will continue to be lifesaving.
Reach out to family. Celebrate the life that's fading away, and comfort one another with memories.
Turn your mind to practicalities, if that helps. Some people are comforted by keeping busy. If this is true for you, you may want to begin to consider future funeral arrangements -- for example, who will give the eulogy and what you might want to say yourself.

Moving to Luxembourg City
I am just wondering if there is any other websites except appartager.lu and athome.lu to find cheap accommodation in Lux?
My job will mean I can only afford a place between Protected content Protected content (including bills) a month and the closer to Beggen/Limpertsberg the better.
My french at the moment is not amazing but I was wondering how easy it is to contact estate agents from overseas and if there are costs they don't tell you about when living in Luxembourg.
Many thanks! :)
