This painting was inspired by a Thomas Moran painting done back in the 1800's. I made major changes in the painting adding a second falls, more water over the rocks and rapid moving water in the pond, actually a small river coming from the falls.
I started with the background and fogged it in after painting the detail lightly, then came forward with the cliff in the center and the filling in of the falls.
I felt that with that much water coming from the falls, there had to be more water moving in the picture, soooo I created it in my head and put it on the canvas.
Had a lot of fun with this painting and worked on it on and off along with the lady in red, finished both paintings just last week.
Since the falls did not have much color in them I wanted more blue in the water flowing over the rocks and coming closer to the viewer.
The trees were painted with sap green darkened where needed with ultramarine blue and burnt Umber, the blues uses were ultramarine blue mixed with cerulean blue and white.
Umbers, orchres and naples yellow were used in the cliffs, and grayed down some with raw umber, blue and white mix. The foggy and distant areas were dry brushed with very little paint.
The paint was thinned down with a little liquin like warm butter, everything was softened brushing lightly with a mop brush.

Viscount Mountgarret asked Her Majesty's Government:
The Minister of State, Foreign and Commonwealth Office (Baroness Chalker of Wallasey: Copies of Lady Anson's first Report have been placed in the Libraries of the House. We welcome the report and note Lady Anson's recommendations, which will be carefully considered. Some have already been implemented.
Lord Judd asked Her Majesty's Government:
Baroness Chalker of Wallasey: We have established a new bilateral Angola Development Fund of £1 million to support British NGOs in rehabilitation and longer-term development work. We have assisted the United Nations in their detailed planning for UNAVEM II by secondment of a British officer to the UN's Mission Planning Services. We fully support the Secretary General's efforts to increase the numbers of observers to UNAVEM II to previously authorised levels. As a member of the European Union we will continue to assist the Angolan Government in its efforts to rebuild and develop Angola. However, a lasting peace depends chiefly upon the willingness of the parties to implement in full their commitments under the Lusaka Protocol.
Lord Hylton asked Her Majesty's Government:
Baroness Chalker of Wallasey: Human rights issues were discussed by the Human Dimension Working Group at the CSCE Review Conference. The final communiqué of the Budapest Summit on 5/6 December (available in the Libraries of the House), whilst making no specific mention of Turkey, includes strong statements on freedom of expression and human rights.
Lord Hylton asked Her Majesty's Government:
Baroness Chalker of Wallasey: We had deplored the removal of parliamentary immunity from the MPs and their subsequent arrest and trial on charges carrying a theoretical death penalty. We were shocked to learn of the harsh sentences of long terms of imprisonment imposed by the Turkish Court on 8 December. We await the outcome of the appeal which we understand will be made.
Lord Hylton asked Her Majesty's Government:
Baroness Chalker of Wallasey: It is for the European Commission and Court of Human Rights to determine whether the Constitution of Turkey contravenes the provisions of the European Convention on Human Rights, which Turkey has ratified. We take every opportunity to remind the Turkish Government of the need for improvement in its human rights record.
Lord Hylton asked Her Majesty's Government:
Baroness Chalker of Wallasey: I refer the noble Lord to the written statement made by my noble friend the Lord Privy Seal on 7 December, at cols. WA 95-96.
Lord Hylton asked Her Majesty's Government:
Baroness Chalker of Wallasey: We understand from the Secretariat of the Council of Europe that no request has been received by Turkey for a loan from the Social Development Fund (SDF). Although the UK is not a member of the SDF, it is open to us to make our views known about applications to the fund. It would be
Lord Hylton asked Her Majesty's Government:
Baroness Miller of Hendon: At December 1993 there were approximately 52,200 such children, of whom 15 per cent. were in nursery education. Including those 4 year-olds statutorily required to be in primary schools, some 45 per cent. of children aged 3 and 4 were receiving education.
It is not possible to derive meaningful estimates of the cost of province-wide provision because capital and running costs would depend on circumstances. However, the recurrent cost of a full-time equivalent place in a nursery school is approximately £1,900 per child.
Lord Dormand of Easington asked Her Majesty's Government:
The Minister of State, Department of Trade and Industry (Earl Ferrers): The Government and British Coal are continuing to explore options for the services provided by British Coal Enterprise. No final decisions have yet been taken about its future.
Lord Tebbit asked Her Majesty's Government:
Lord Jenkins of Putney asked Her Majesty's Government:
Earl Ferrers: Of the four reactors at Chernobyl, only two are currently operational. Unit four was destroyed in the accident on 26 April 1986 and unit two was closed as a result of a fire in October 1991. In the light of international concerns over the safety situation at the remaining units, G7 Heads of Government proposed an action plan at the Naples Summit to secure their early
There are thirteen other reactors of similar design currently operational in the former Soviet Union, eleven in Russia and two in Lithuania. The safety of all these reactors is the responsibility of the relevant national authorities and only they would be able to provide full details of the current status of each plant. There are no Chernobyl type reactors outside the former Soviet Union.
Lord Redesdale asked Her Majesty's Government:
Earl Ferrers: Details of unpaid export credits are included in ECGD's accounts but these do not detail separately amounts relating to military exports. Nor can this information be provided other than at disproportionate cost.
Earl Attlee asked Her Majesty's Government:
(a) have a gross weight of over 3,000 kgs
(b) are exempt from plating and testing or MOT test
(c) have a gross weight of over 7,500 kgs
(d) have more than two axles
(e) have more than three axles
(f) have a gross train weight of over 32,200 kgs
(g) have a gross train weight of over 38,000 kgs
(h) have a gross train weight of over 60,000 kgs
(i) have an unladen weight of over 10,000 kgs
(j) have an unladen weight of over 17,000 kgs
(k) have an unladen weight of over 20,000 kgs
or the nearest equivalent figure similarly available, and if no such figures are available, why not.
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of Transport (Viscount Goschen): The following information is based on the number of vehicles licensed in the recovery class as of 30th June:
(b) no figures are available on the number of recovery vehicles exempt from plating and testing or MOT testing. However, "breakdown vehicles" over 3,500 kgs in the recovery class are exempt from plating and testing. Records show 5,420 breakdown vehicles to be licensed in this class;

Allow Me to Tell You Why Giving Yourself Your First Brazilian Is a Terrible Idea
It's basically SAW: Beauty Edition.
You know the story.
It's 7:49 a.m. and you should have been out the door four minutes ago. You couldn't find your favorite sweater, and then you couldn't find your keys and now you finally have everything you need but you can pretty much forget about eating breakfast.
Then, one of the following most definitely happens:
- You are hungry and cranky until lunch. You snap unnecessarily at your officemate and, dizzy from hunger, accidentally make four times the photocopies you actually needed.
- Someone brought donuts to work. Starving, you scarf one down, briefly feeling that familiar sugar high, followed by an inevitable sugar low, and then proceed to fall asleep at your desk.
- You grab a greasy fast food breakfast sandwich, which you regret all morning as it churns in your stomach, every uncomfortable belch reminding you to get it together and start eating breakfast at home already.
But making a healthy breakfast in the morning can take more time than most people I know care to spend when they first wake up. Solution: Prep healthy breakfast stuff in advance and eat it on your way out the door in the morning.
These breakfasts require a tiny bit of forethought, but the payoff is that every morning you are set up for breakfast success, which, in my opinion, gives you total license to feel smug about what good decisions you're making.
My favorite grab-n-go breakfasts:
Mason Jar Yogurt Parfaits
I like to make the base of several of these at once.
1. Fill a 6-ounce mason jar with 2 tablespoons blueberries, raspberries, or any other fruit, chopped if necessary (this goes on the bottom), and ½ cup yogurt (I usually use Greek yogurt).
2. Just before leaving in the morning, put a tablespoon or two of granola, nuts, seeds or your favorite cereal on top. Grab a spoon, get out the door and eat on your way to work.
Kale and Tomato Frittata Cups
1. Preheat your oven to 375 and line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper or foil liners.
2. Whisk together 8 eggs, 1 cup milk (any fat percentage is fine), 1 teaspoon each of salt and pepper, 1 pint of cherry tomatoes (leave them whole), 2 cups chopped kale (spinach or chard will also work), and 2 cloves of garlic, chopped.
3. Divide the egg mixture between the muffin cups (if you have extra egg mixture, scramble it or make a second batch of frittata cups).
4. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the frittata cups puff up and are cooked through.
5. Store in the fridge and eat throughout the week.
Homemade Breakfast Burritos
It seems weird to freeze scrambled eggs, but I promise you, it works!
1. On Sunday night, beat together a dozen eggs (or use 8 oz crumbled firm tofu) and scramble in a little olive oil or butter until fluffy. Let cool completely.
2. Set up an assembly line of 5 8-inch tortillas (regular, whole wheat, gluten-free, etc), 1 cup of your favorite shredded cheese (cheddar, jack, or pepperjack would be my picks -- feel free to skip the cheese if you don't do dairy), then cooked, cooled eggs (or tofu), 1 can drained black or pinto beans, and the salsa or hot sauce of your choice .
3. To make each burrito, layer the cheese (if using) on the tortilla and top with the eggs (or tofu), beans and salsa. Roll up tightly, tucking in the ends, so you have a tight cylinder.
4. Wrap each rolled burrito in a paper towel and then wrap tightly in foil. Freeze until ready to use.
5. In the morning, take the burrito out of the foil (keep the foil nearby -- you'll be using it again momentarily) and microwave the burrito in the paper towel, for 2-2 ½ minutes, until cooked through. Wrap it in the foil and eat on your way to work.
* Note: If you don't have a microwave, skip the paper towel when wrapping up the burritos. When it's time to cook your burrito, place the foil-only-wrapped burrito in the oven at 375 degrees F for 12-15 minutes (while you shower, get dressed, etc.). It'll be hot when you take it out of the oven, so wrap it in a paper towel to protect your hands as you eat it on your way out the door.
Overnight Oats
Overnight oats is one of the most brilliant breakfasts ever, and requires only that you remember to throw it together the night before. Simply by sitting overnight in the fridge, rolled oats absorb the liquid of your choice (regular or non-dairy milk, yogurt or even water), resulting in a delicious cereal that's good hot or cold.
1. Combine equal parts rolled oats (not instant or quick-cooking oats) and milk, water or yogurt. I like to do this in a mason jar or other to-go, airtight container so I can just grab it on my way out the door the next morning.
2. Stir well in the jar or container, and top with nuts or fruit.
3. Seal the jar and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, the oats can be heated in the microwave, but they're delicious cold too. Grab a spoon and eat on the way out the door.
Smoothie Pops
Who doesn't love the idea of a popsicle for breakfast? Even better when they're healthy, fiber-packed smoothie popsicles!
1. Simply make a large batch of your favorite smoothie (my favorite is this green one: 2 cups fresh spinach leaves, 2 cups regular, soy, almond or coconut milk, 1 cup frozen pineapple, 1 cup frozen mango and 2 bananas. Puree in the blender until smooth).
2. Pour the smoothie into ice pop molds, or regular cups with popsicle sticks or spoons stuck into them.
3. Freeze overnight, until solid.
4. Grab a smoothie pop and a napkin and walk out the door, nourished and smug about how yours is the best and most fun breakfast on the subway.
Do you eat breakfast on the run? What are your favorites?

We were inundated with entries for our Savile Rogue competition recently, but we have a winner!
We asked who this was....and the answer is, of course, Roberto Mancini.
Our randomly selected winner is Mike Norfolk, who has opted for a swish cashmere scarf in the colours of Liverpool. Well done Mike!
Savile Rogue scarves give a nod to football terraces of yesteryear, shunning in-your-face logos and cheap nylon in favour of a traditional bar design and the comfort, quality and warmth of top grade wool. It's the sort of scarf you would be happy to wear even when you're not at the match.
If you can't win one, you can certainly buy one and we can't recommend these highly enough. Check out the full range at Savile Rogue.

Restocking the sea cucumber Holothuria scabra: sizing no-take zones through individual-based movement modelling
Document Type
Publication details
Purcell, SW & Kirby, DS 2006, 'Restocking the sea cucumber Holothuria scabra: sizing no-take zones through individual-based movement modelling', Fisheries Research, vol. 80, no. 1, pp. 53-61.
Published version available from:
Peer Reviewed
The valuable sea cucumber Holothuria scabra, known as 'sandfish', has potential for restocking. However, there is little information available to determine the size of the no-take zones (NTZs) needed to protect the released animals so that they can form nucleus breeding populations. To do this, we measured short-term movement paths of released juvenile (1–105 g) and wild adult (130–690 g) sandfish in a seagrass bed in New Caledonia. We then developed an individual-based model (IBM) to predict long-term dispersal of sandfish released as juveniles (1–16 g) at 1 individual m−2 within a 1-ha area, drawing on distributions of speed and directionality and the relationship between speed and animal weight from field data. Movement was non-random at the sampling scale used, since animals tended to turn <90° at each 2-h time step. We examined high- and low-growth scenarios by applying 50% and 25% of the modelled growth rates of sandfish held in earthen ponds (where they are known to grow faster). The dispersal of released sandfish was predicted to be limited in the first 2 years, then markedly faster thereafter. After 10 years, 6–12% of surviving animals were predicted to remain in the original 1-ha release site. To protect surviving sandfish as nucleus breeding populations for 10 years, and accepting 10% spillover, square NTZs would need to be 19–40 ha. The findings are useful for the management of restocking and pre-defining the size of sites for recapture surveys. Our model allows user-specified values for future releases and should be applicable for other sedentary marine invertebrates where basic data on movement and growth are available.

After doing a standard install using external mirror and default disk partitioning (xfs on LVM volumes) the installed system will boot no problem, many times over without issue.
I then `systemctl disable NetworkManager` and reboot. The system gives me systemd-readahead failed to open pack file: input/output error.
If I go into single user mode it will sometimes show XFS errors until allows me to enter my root password for maintenance, but it won't accept the password. Obviously because of XFS errors.
I did a new install and changed the partitioning to
500M /boot ext2
100% /root xfs
reboot, no issues
`systemctl disable NetworkManager`, reboot no issues
I know there are a few distros that still use a standard /boot partition and usually it is ext2/3/4 and then you can create LVM with the rest of the disks if necessary.

Good work.ReplyDelete
The queens of that time lived rough lives. Full of plots and suspicions and murder.
I'm happy to be where I am.
WOW! I looked back at your Queen Elizabeth with her jewels and embroidered sleeves, her lace and different textured clothing. WOW! Mary will be just as beautiful. Keep us posted!ReplyDelete
Nice! I will not start a new project. I will not start a new project.ReplyDelete

If the Ultimate Fighting Championship has indeed crossed over into the mainstream, then it undoubtedly owes a large part of that success to The Ultimate Fighter reality show. The UFC has been on a meteoric rise in popularity ever since Spike debuted the series back in 2005, introducing the sport to countless new viewers, allowing audiences to connect fighters to personalities, and even creating some legitimate stars and champions in the likes of Forrest Griffin and Rashad Evans, among others.
For the show's tenth season, President Dana White has pulled out all the stops in order to inject new life and interest into the series. With Brock Lesner carving a scary path across the Heavyweight Division, White has turned to his most effective source of new talent to find the next great super-sized fighter. For coaches, White has enlisted none other than former Season 2 winner Rashad Evans and his fellow former Light-Heavyweight Champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson to train the eclectic cast, which includes an impressive roll call of former NFL players, collegiate wrestlers and MMA veterans. Oh, and Kimbo Slice.
Unless you avoided anyone who mentioned MMA over the past two years or so, you've probably heard Slice's bizarre name before. A former strip club bouncer and bodyguard, Slice became a YouTube sensation when clips of his brutal unsanctioned street fights in backyard barbeques hit the Internet. His cult popularity led to a contract with the upstart EliteXC organization, which quickly pushed him as their marquee fighter. Slice's EliteXC fights were marred with controversy, with many MMA insiders calling him a fraud long before Seth Petruzelli knocked Slice out in just 18 seconds in front of a nationwide audience on CBS. When EliteXC folded to bankruptcy, Dana White famously stated that the only way Slice would be able to compete in the UFC was if he won The Ultimate Fighter. And here he is.
Meet The Heavyweights | UFC | SPIKE.com
The strength of any given Ultimate Fighter season usually resides in its personalities, and season 10 is definitely populated by plenty of eccentric and entertaining figures. Evans and Jackson are the two strongest and most amusing characters, and their clear dislike for one another leads to some of the debut's best moments. White has long used the show's coaches to build up interest in an eventual bout, and the lead up to Evans and Jackson's grudge match is sure to offer great entertainment. The involvement of several former NFL players adds another facet to the show's drama.
The new season's biggest drawback may just be its choice of weight class. Heavyweights haven't always been known for the most exciting matches or impressive skill sets, which anyone who has ever had the misfortune of paying for one of Tim Sylvia and Andrei Arlovski Pay-Per-View bouts will no doubt attest to.
The possible athletic limitations of the heavyweights is apparent in the season's first bout, which despite a preponderance of blood stands as one of the worst matches in the show's history. Team Evan's Jon Madsen, a wrestling specialist who has trained with Matt Hughes, takes on Team Rampage's Abe Wagner, a giant of a man from the business world who has no discernable fight talents whatsoever. The entire two-round match consists of Wagner taking down Madsen before working his ground and pound, but their mismatched abilities and lack of conditioning lead to a fight that looks far more like two beached seals laying on each other than a respectable MMA bout. At the very least, it looks like Slice is primed to fight next episode, which will draw plenty of interest from both casual fans and MMA diehards.

Dr. Sampson Answers Your Eye Care Questions
How often should I have an eye exam?
Eye exams are recommended periodically, with the interval differing for various age groups. In the first three years of infancy, a child should have vision checked along with normal pediatric checkups. Between the ages of three and six (the most crucial period of eye development) an eye exam should be scheduled every year or two. After that period, until adulthood, exams should be scheduled as necessary. During the twenties one should have at least one exam. During the thirties one should have at least two exams. In the forties, fifties, and early sixties, one should schedule an exam every two to four years. For seniors, an exam every year or two is recommended. In addition to these basic guidelines, people with a family history of eye problems, those monitoring a diagnosed eye disease, or those with certain high risk diseases such as diabetes, it is recommended that exams should be performed at least once a year. Regular eye exams are the best way to keep you seeing your world clearly. Contact us today to schedule an eye exam!

Ok so we did go on a trip. We were in the land of saguaro cacti!
Remember my friend Mary who we visited in Phoenix on our road trip? Well she got married! So we made the trip to Phoenix again, this time by plane. We went down a week early so that we could visit with the happy couple before they started to get busy with wedding stuff. Then we rented a car and did a mini road trip. We had two specific spots we wanted to see – Zion National Park (yup! we loved it so much the first time we had to go back!) and Antelope Canyon. Photos to come as I process them!

- Nemesis
- By: Philip Roth
Reviewed: 11-21-10
Without pathos about life...
After "The Dying Animal" by Philip Roth, I knew that he is a great and deep writer.
However — his latest novel "Nemesis" is one of the best books I ever read.
It is a story of young man, the teacher of physical education and passionate javelin thrower. The story is set in 1944 during one of the worst American polio epidemics. As he could not go to the army, the hero was already discontent of himself when the plot of events related to the epidemics and the events of his personal life caused a major self oppression and the unbearable conviction of guilt.
It is a great book about insecurity a man can experience, about guilt and punishment and about human rebellion against G-d due to overwhelming sense of undeserved suffering of many...
And ultimately it is a book about the triumph of human freedom of choice...
In his short book, and in the simple words, Roth once again comes to the main theme of Job's bible book (without, of course, any direct reference to it) and to the most important problems that face humans — without pathos and sanctimonious deliberations...
THE great novel.

Witty & serious ...
Douglas Adams's book, "The Salmon of Doubt"; is a set of posthumous Adams's writings, collected, edited and published in 2001 - one year after Douglas Adams sudden death.
The most important part of the book - "The Salmon of Doubt": itself is only a part of the book. To me it is totally surrealistic, absurd, satiric story that has - as always with Adams - deeper philosophical sense as it describes absurdity of our life and our habits...
But my deeper attention was directed to the "Is there an Artificial God?" speech Adams gave at Cambridge in 1998 - which is also a part of the book. In that speech Adams recapitulates his views on religion. He was a devout atheist and based his atheism on logical thinking and the belief in science.
I must say - that is some sense I like his opinions. Although I'm not an atheist, well, I'm strong theist, I value his thoughts - because what they ridicule and oppose is not the true faith - but it's typical distortion...
However, I must also say that Douglas's arguments, as well as most atheists arguments are also very superficial...
They usually (and so is Douglas doing) build their arguments on the fact that since Darwin and all other scientific discoveries - we no longer NEED G-d's idea. Certainly - we no longer need it !
We, indeed, don't need the idea of G-d which is the last resort for our failing minds and ideas ...
But we (those who believe) don't think of G-d as the EXPLANATION - we think of Him as of the "who - who is calling" ....
To all those who do not seek for philosophical tones - it is fantastic, homourous and witty book. Strongly recommended !!

Buddhism meets our business culture
"The Leader's Way" by His Holiness Dalai Lama and Van Den Muyzenberg is the book of unusual meeting. It describes the important, yet metaphorical meeting between 14th Dalai Lama (Jetsun Jamphel Ngawang Lobsang Yeshe Tenzin Gyatso) and the modern businessman who was consultant and business developer for many large corporations. The book shows how one can practise buddists doctrines in the modern world of corporate citizenship.
It shows that practicing Buddhist Perfections (Generosity, Ethical discipline, Patience, Enthusiastic effort, Concentration & Wisdom) gives enormous benefits to responsible business practices.
But what was very interesting in this book, was the sincere admission by Dalai Lama, that in the past he was fascinated by socialism and its ideas. He used to read Marx and was sure that socialism/communism was the right way for humanity happiness. He also describes how he slowly discovered the plain untruth in communism. He then read Adam Smith and his rendering of this author is just amazing.
He also have noticed how important European Union "project" is in human history....
These two last thoughts of Dalai Lama, i.e. the initial fascination with socialism and approval of the greatness of EU - I dedicate to all who used to blame many people for the choices ot their youth and to all sceptics of EU - who are so many among us....

Irrational man ...
Stuart Sutherland 1992 book "Irrationality" explores the vast areas of irrational thinking omnipresent in human judgments and decisions. Sutherland was professional psychologist, hence the book is not a set of novel-like digressions about human nature. It is scientifically grounded analysis of sources of our mistakes and misconceptions. For example, it explains how skin-deep obedience, false conformity, biased impressions or communal follies bring disaster to many organisation, from army units (he comes back to the Pearl Harbour attack) through government organisations to business organisations. Some of the examples he gives are just hilarious...
There is a lot about medicine and irrationality there, about false diagnosis that can lead to death and about modern superstitions that still pervade the popular medicine (like homeopathy).
The book is full of examples, explanations and recommendations - how to avoid the irrational thinking in our life. The true goal of the book is - of course - the promotion of true and well based rationality!
Every chapter of the books end with a "moral" - a digest of the chapter content in a form of few most important "sententia".

Is the World truly flat?
The short book by Jack Goldsmith and Tim Wu "Who Controls the Internet? Illusions of Borderless World" is absolutely a MUST for all who ponder about Internet. It should also be read by all who hold naive concepts about globalization or are sometimes against it.
In essence, it demonstrates, that contrary to popular views, Internet IS controlled by nations states and their policies. What is more, the authors argue, that this control is not only bad thing, not only it is not a censorship, but it is the imposition of law, which benefits the Internet.
The book devotes a lot of thoughts to the initial revolutionary movement for the freedom of cyberspace - the freedom from nation states governments. The analysis of John Perry Barlow famous declaration and Jon Postel ("If the Net does have a G-d," wrote the Economist (1997), "he is probably Jon Postel") fight with US government over the control over DNS.
But the most interesting parts of the book deal with legal aspect of the net. From the initial successful French litigation against Yahoo (for allowing of nazi memorabilia to be sold online by Yahoo), to the incredible Dow Jones vs Gutnick case (won by Joseph Gutnick) we have a spectrum of cases that prove the one simple thing - despite seemingly borderless world of Internet - when it comes to content - it is in fact confined to state borders and their laws !
The analysis of music distribution on the net, from Napster, through lawless Kazaa to Apple iTunes - shows the evolution toward the respect of copyright and its associated laws.
The same conclusion can be drawn when we read about eBay. Here the discovery of the positive effect of legal means of coercion against fraud and indecent hucksters is even more obvious.
On more general level we observe that Internet did not remove the middleman, it just changed it!

God's Debris - A beautiful tale
Described by the author as "thought experiment" this short book discusses ages old philosophical problems and conundrums in a dialog between a common delivery man and an old "sage", calling himself Avatar.
Their dialog starts with a question: "If you toss a coin a thousand times, how often will it come up heads?", and, by and by, they enter into enchanting philosophical discussion about the eternal philosophical problems of humanity. Do we have free will? If we do, how it relates to brain? What are consequences of God's free will? Why there are so many religions? What is the true nature and cause of physical universe? What is the meaning of evolution? and so on ...
In the discussion, the delivery man thinks like common, media influenced, educated person, while Avatar speaks as the one who knows everything, as a sage.
In some sense the "God's Debris" illustrates a kind of collision of modern practical mind and ages old philosophical thought.
Many of the explanations given by the sage are just plain baloney. The concept of the universe as the God's Debris that came into existence after G-d "decided" to stop his existence, the concept of gravitation and inertia as probability, and many others are examples.
What is beautiful though, is that it just does not matter if these concepts are true or not - the essence is in bringing the common man higher in his awareness - moving him from level of scientific thinking to the "5th-level" where he recognizes that our mind is more delusion generator than "an engine" of truth...
The true virtue of the book lies in its atmosphere; atmosphere of realistic irrationality - is I could call it this way. The books ends in surprising, yet anticipated way - but I will try not to spoil it for its future readers...

A false dream ...
It is the last work of Herman Hesse, and his "Magnum Opus". In some sense the book is philosophical science-fiction, though there are no typical elements of sci-fi genre. The author predicts that the period in human history will come when the knowledge became wide-spread and popular, with multitude of authors writing multitude of stories. This period, called "The Age of Feuilleton" was highly individualistic. The main feature of the age was the passionate search of freedom.
At this moment comes the main prophecy of the book. Hesse predicts that on the ashes of the feuilletonistic age, new movement is born. The purpose of the order is the cultivation of science and music. The order cultivates highly elitist structure and its rule is as strong as the rules of religious orders. It also includes meditation and contemplation. The culmination of the order achievement is the synthesis of all sciences and music in an instrument called "glass bead game". A game, was a like a symphony but with deep scientific background. The main character of the book, Joseph Knecht, after swift carrier, becomes the chief Glass Bead Game custodian and player. The most of the book is about his life and his path - first to the order of Castalia, than through the rungs of the order hierarchy - to the startling decision to leave the order, and become "awaken" to the everyday life ...
Despite the end of the Jospeh Knecht story - Hesse, through the entire book, demonstrates the admiration to the concept of intellectual elitism, to the notion of "intellectual order" to the medieval concept of hierarchical knowledge, well organized, and integrated with the quintessence of art - with the classical music.
In some sense the Hesse prophecy is dangerous...
We no longer need "mental elite" - the current culture proved to be vibrant and precious. The human knowledge can, and is built, by millions of people, and we do not need any orders.

"The Power of Now" enigma
Eckhart Tolle fame could easily one's mind very suspicious about the quality of his message. But, I must admit, here comes a surprise. The message is very simple and obvious - and expressed in sincere words. In a most concise description, the message is about the discovery of our inner consciousness, the silent "I" which is not reduced to our mind, thoughts or even our ego. He beautifully describes it as the "no-thing" the background of our thoughts and perceptions.
The discovery of the true inner center of our awareness, reveals also all negative consequences of mind domination - both on personal and also on social level. His analysis of the concept of pain-body which describes the negative emotional component of our life - is really deep. I found his basic advice we can use to wake us up very interesting - it is the attempt to live in the "now". The past, and future are mental creations. The focus on "Now" on things and thoughts that matter for presentness - opens us to the awareness of the deeper level of existence, to true being, or "is-ness".
In some sense, Eckhart Tolle rediscovers the truths well known to almost all meditational traditions of the world, however he does so in truly universal way - in language that the modern world can understand and can accept. It rediscovers what almost all religions of the world were telling us for centuries, but what was forgotten or maybe simply obstructed for many by the organizational or even political aspects of many religions. If I was about to point some weakness in his teaching it is in forgetting of the importance of unchangeable past, our freedom and grounds for moral teaching. Paradoxically if one extends his basic teaching of awareness - the foundations for these concepts are there !
Finally, even though many aspects of Tolle career are strange, he, by no means can be called "revitalized New Age mumbo jumbo" as it was done by Independent...

When a movie becomes an object for philosophers
When first released in March of 1999, "The Matrix" of Wachowski brothers, immediately gave rise to philosophical interpretations.
While majority of viewers watched it for stunning and violent action, critics and film makers - for sound and visual effects, the philosophers noticed the non-trivial references to various schools of thought from Buddhism, through cartesianism, to existentialism and postmodernism.
The book surprised me positively. First and foremost, the authors whose essayes are in the book are really distinguished philosophers. Let me only name few: William Irwin, Jorge Garcia, Theodore Shick or Slavoj Zizek from about 20 names.
Second - the authors mostly took The Matrix as the inspiration of some deeper philosophical analysis. These analysis are very interesting and deep, but what is the most important fact is that it is the iconic movie of modern culture that ignited the fire of millenia long dilemmas.
It is impossible in short review to analyse the actual thoughts and polemicize with them.
There are fantastic passages about Platonic ideas, about Rene Descartes "Devil" or about Kant forms of perception.
Let me, however, look closer at the article "Popping a Bitter Pill: Existential Authenticity in The Matrix and Nausea" by Jennifer L. MacMahon. She analyses the transition undergone by main characters of The Matrix (Neo) and Sartre's "La Nause?" (Roquentin). In both cases is is about authenticity.
The another worth mentioning essay is "Real Genre and Virtual Philosophy" by Deborah Knight and George McKnight.
It is very important because it uncovers how many of The Matrix philosophical motives could rather be attributed to specific genre it is deeply rooted.
The general conclusion is, that while The Matrix itself is certainly not philosophical fairy-tale and is full of contradictions and serious simplifications - it ignited much deeper discussion...

Idiana Jones tale or genuine story by Parfitt?
"The Lost Ark of the Covenant" by Tudor Parfitt is a controversial book. The very selection of the theme, the quest for traces of Lost Ark of Covenant, the most sacred physical object in the entire biblical narrative - is controversial by itself.
No wonder, after Indiana Jones or Sussman's "The Last Secret ..." it is hard to write about the Ark without falling or into scholarly-historic-archeological style or into a kind of thriller.
When you read it however, you find both notes — sometimes the melody is like it was to accompany Indiana Jones — sometime you hear a song of true scholar.
The book describes the author's life-long quest for the biblical Lost Ark of Covenant. Parfitt, from the very beginning shows his preference for the hypothesis of African trail of the Ark. And for good. He is a very well known advocate of the theory that assumes that the African tribe of Lemba, where a Judaic trend is clearly visible, was directly responsible for preservation of the Ark.
The book becomes a real page turner when it describes apparently futile, long and dangerous trip through Yemen and later, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Ethiopia. In another chapter he goes after the Judaic trails in Papua, New Guinea. This episode, with some recent cannibalistic tribe goes too far toward "Indiana Jones melody".
However, in other parts, particularly those devoted to the Ark itself, called 'ngoma lungundu' by Lemba people he writes in a very good scholarly but not entirely dull, tone. The Ark, according to Parfitt was in fact ... a drum, a horrifying musical instrument and the ancient weapon of mass destruction.
The book concludes in a better tone. There are no fanfares, no pseudo-religious boosting - there is just a moldy drum, sitting in a dusty museum storeroom, which author believes IS the true Ark's duplicate made in XIV century...
Good Book !

But, there are ways to overcome adversity and pain and to lessen the impact of depression. In this e-reader Kevin Donnelly writes about how literature, religious faith and the love and comfort of family and friends can help one to find a safe shore after the storm tossed seas. While there is no closure - there is hope and a chance to live life to the full."

New venue: The Angela Marmont Centre, Natural History Museum, London
In a chamber at the back of the Natural History Museum's Angela Marmont Centre, rows of locked silver vaults keep thousands of weird and wonderful specimens in sealed drawers.
There are more than 4,000 types of beetles, 7,000 flies and 7,500 bees, wasps and ants in the UK, and that's before you encounter their tentacular furry cousins here, from crickets and grasshoppers to earwigs and cockroaches.
During the past few months, the Museum has ramped up efforts to increase public interest in the exquisite beauty of the UK's natural environment by encouraging a wider audience to take part in their existing identification process.
Fossils and rare beauties inside the Centre
Peering at the glorious oddities filling the shelves elicits a sense of endless adventure, starting with a beefly.
"We get people saying it's got the face of a mosquito, which is fair enough because it's got a very similar looking mouth part," says Hannah Cornish, one of several stars of a Botany Department whose collective passion is as compelling as the creatures they specialise in.
"Someone said it had the legs of an insect and the body of a bat – that was another good one. My favourite was someone who said it looked like a cross between a bee, a golden mole and a narwhal, which is one of those whales with a unicorn horn.
"You get all of these crazy descriptions and you just instantly know what they are, because they come in again and again once they start leaving their burrows and flying around people's gardens."
Pondlife goes under the microscope thanks to The Opal Water Survey
Sitting under the Darwin Centre's cocoon, the new Centre invites the public to bring in residents of their local gardens and ponds, where they can interrogate the professionals and use specialist equipment to take a closer look at them.
"One of the great things we're hoping to do with this place is to get those people who already have an interest to come here and develop that, but also to reach out to new audiences as well," explains Dr Fred Rumsey, who's a dab hand at settling queries after 15 years at the Museum.
"When people come in with things we can introduce them to the facilities we have here, but also use that brief contact time to build up their enthusiasm, with the hope that they'll maintain an interest in wildlife."
Rumsey has always enjoyed "the public aspect of things", using synoptic examples – subsections of the larger collection aimed at drawing the public in through well-known specimens – to entice people.
The public will be able to enjoy some of the more unusual findings within the vaults
"It gives them a chance to get much more hands-on and use better equipment than they'll have had at school or at home," he says.
"The fascination of these things is only really apparent when you see them under high power microscopes. We're lucky we've got the library of the London Natural History Society here as well, which is an amazing resource."
The Centre is home to Opal, a national campaign giving children tips on how to explore their local pond through simple chemical tests and nature spotting. Launched last Wednesday, it has distributed 40,000 survey guides, including a scoring system for invertebrate sightings.
"We're involved with lots of independent natural history groups, but until now if they've wanted to visit they had to contact the museum," says the project's Lucy Carter.

"Now it's a lot more open, it creates that link and dialogue between us much more. It's nice that there is a point for UK biodiversity as well, because you look around the museum and see tigers and dinosaurs and whales, but most people's main experience of wildlife is when they're in their garden walking around.
"We're trying to remind people that actually it is really fun looking at these things, so they don't just think 'everything in Britain's boring, I want to go to a tropical rainforest' or something."
A survey by the Museum this week suggested the need for the development, finding a public unable to tell frogs from toads, identify a blue tit, recognise a sycamore tree or name an ammonite, Britain's most common fossil.
"Bringing in an enquiry is the first step to being engaged with UK wildlife," argues Carter, whose scheme began when Londoners monitored their own air pollution and sent the results to co-organisers University College London.
"It's a unique link between the public and really high-level science establishments like the Museum and the universities. It's about that progression from having a general interest to developing things a bit further."
The Centre celebrates UK wildlife in the International Year of Biodiversity
For Rumsey, it could lead to a nation of rival experts. "Some people are really fixed in their minds," he says. "They say 'oh, I'm sure this is really rare,'" and you tell them 'I don't think it is'.
"Then you get 'oh no no, I'm going to send you another 15 pictures which prove it is, I've got someone else who says it must be.' All you can do is prepare your case as well as possible."
His colleagues in entomology witness "quite a few" bizarre episodes. "We do find there are people who have fears and phobias – some of them are quite understandable," he sympathises.
"You have to learn to deal with some of the more colourful characters who might turn up. You have to tell them 'I really think you ought to go and see your doctor. If your GP says you don't have eight-foot lizards erupting from your scalp then I'd trust them.'
"It's trying to give them as much time and attention as you can without affecting other people who might want advice. But it can be very difficult to end a conversation sometimes."

General Motors has acquired the technology and most of the employees behind the now-defunct ride-hailing startup Sidecar, according to Bloomberg. Sidecar Co-founder and CEO Sunil Paul will apparently not be joining the company, but no explanation was given as to why.
The deal bolsters GM's move into the driverless quasi-taxi space—earlier this month, it invested $500 million in Lyft to "leverage GM's deep knowledge of autonomous technology."
Over the last four years, Uber has rapidly expanded to become the dominant force in the industry. Just last month, it was valued at $62.5 billion, making it the world's most valuable startup.
If Uber is able to keep costs down for riders and be cost-competitive with public transit, it could pose a significant threat to traditional individual car ownership over the long term.
According to Bloomberg:
GM is preparing to introduce its own set of transportation services, which it has dubbed Maven, the source familiar with the matter said. The initiative may allow owners of GM vehicles to give rides to other passengers who are commuting in the same direction. GM President Ammann will take charge of Maven, this person said.
The trademark "Maven" was registered in November 2015 with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, describing it as an "Application software for connecting vehicle drivers and passengers and for coordinating transportation services."

Nintendo's Super Mario 64 for the Nintendo 64 console was and still is an awesome game, moving our favorite plumber from the 2D side-scrolling world of old to an (at the time) immersive 3D environment gamers could freely explore. It set the stage for Mario games to come and is now the launchpad for a completely new (yet) old Mario adventure.
Called Super Mario 64 2D, the game is the product of Dave Pickett of the "Brick 101" Lego-themed YouTube channel and Super Mario Maker for the Wii U console. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Super Mario 64 launching in North America (September 29, 1996), Pickett set out to recreate the now-classic game in its entirety within Nintendo's too — but in the old-school 2D format. Why? Well, why not?
More: Nintendo is using Super Mario Maker to teach kids game design
"Back in March when they released the update for Super Mario Maker that introduced pink coins and keys, I knew that I had to use them to create something awesome," Pickett said in the first video installment explaining how he created the 2D remake. "So the first thing I decided to do was to remake the opening section of Super Mario 64 using coins as stand-ins for stars, and the locked doors as a way to bar progress like the star doors in Super Mario 64."
The first video explaining how he designed the game covers Bob-omb Battlefield, Whomp's Fortress, Cool Cool Mountain, and Bowser in the Dark World once the eight coins are obtained from those three worlds. It's the first of five that crams three or four Super Mario 64 worlds into one huge Super Mario Maker level. That said, anyone can grab all five levels by hitting the following links:
|Video Episode
|Level ID
|Part 1
|Ground Floor
|Part 2
|Lower Stairs
|Part 3
|Part 4
|Second Floor
|Part 5
|Third Floor
Now here is a breakdown of each level:
|Ground Floor:
|Bob-omb Battlefield
Whomp's Fortress
Cool Cool Mountain
Bowser In The Dark World
|Lower Stairs:
|Jolly Rodger Bay
Big Boo's Haunt
Dire, Dire Docks
|Hazy Maze Cave
Lethal Lava Land
Shifting Sand Land
Bowser In The Fire Sea
|Second Floor:
|Snowman's Land
Wet-Dry World
Tall, Tall Mountain
Tiny-Huge Island
|Third Floor:
|Tick Tock Clock
Rainbow Ride
Wing Mario Over The Rainbow
Bowser In The Sky
Because of the way Peach's castle is split up and because Pickett could only compress three worlds worth of content into each Super Mario Maker level, he had to cram one world from the ground floor, one world from the basement, and Big Boo's Haunt (which he says is "kinda in-between the former two") to make the Lower Stairs level.
Overall, what is amazing here is that Pickett flattened Super Mario 64 into a classic side-scrolling platformer without sacrificing what made the game great to begin with. His interpretation of a 3D world in 2D is simply perfect and a retail version of Super Mario 64 2D would have undoubtedly sold well had it appeared on the original NES console so many decades ago.

Benefits Of Investing In Bitcoin Cryptocurrency
When it comes to investing, you want to minimize risk and maximize potential return. Thus, you are going to want to look to invest in something that is going to provide a reasonable return with less perceived risk. While Bitcoin might be much riskier than some other investments, it does offer some of the largest returns available. Therefore, there are benefits to investing in Bitcoin. Below, we will talk about some of them. For additional information, please visit the Crypto Bitcoin website.
Benefits Of Investing In Bitcoin:
1. It's The Future.
With the way the world is moving towards globalism and global commerce, the need for a payment system that crosses borders is here. Bitcoin offers the potential for those to tap into previously and historically inaccessible markets. Because of this alone, Bitcoin is seen as the future of currency and a viable alternative to the way things are now. Thus, when you make an investment in Bitcoin or other digital cryptocurrencies, you are going to be investing in the future form of currency. Thus, it can be seen as a forward-thinking investment.
2. Reduced Theft.
Because a majority of things are beginning to become digitalized, more people than ever are worried about security. Because of this, a lot of people and governments are looking for solutions that can maximize security and make things more secure as a whole. Bitcoin and cryptocurrency by in large are a much more secure currency compared to traditional paper currency because they are not as easy to counterfeit and they utilize a push mechanism as opposed to a pull mechanism which makes identity theft much more unlikely. Thus, a push for more secure forms of currency is likely to really provide Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies a major platform to increase its viability.
Overall, there are plenty of benefits of investing in Bitcoin and other types of cryptocurrency. Not only does it provide a new way to pay for things that are viable, but it also offers inherent and unique benefits to both regular consumers and retailers. The push towards Globalism is likely to push cryptocurrencies into the forefront simply out of necessity because the need for a global currency is here. Therefore, when you make an investment in this type of currency, you are going to be making a secure investment looking towards the future and how things are likely going to be in the future as a result of these dynamic shifts.

Receiving Wide Coverage ...
Submissive on Pay: The Treasury Department failed to rein in outsize executive pay at some of the biggest bailed-out companies last year, according to a report published Monday by the special inspector general of the Troubled Asset Relief Program. Treasury officials awarded 63% of the 25 highest-paid employees at Ally Financial, AIG and General Motors total pay packages in 2012 that topped the median pay for executives at similar companies by more than $37 million. The Journal observes that Treasury previously rejected the watchdog's criticism and declined to institute policy changes on pay, "a sign the report might not crimp the future pay packages of GM and Ally Financial executives." The Treasury recently sold its remaining shares in AIG, so the company no longer has to submit its pay packages for approval. The Times echoes the point, noting that a report by the inspector general in 2012 "made similar criticisms." The Washington Post also picks up the thread, noting that Monday's report evaluates Treasury's actions since last year "with stinging allegations of lax oversight and supervision."
Wall Street Journal
RBS is nearing a settlement with U.S. and U.K. authorities over the bank's alleged manipulation of the London interbank offered rate, or Libor, the Journal reports. One holdup: The Department of Justice is said to want the British bank to plead guilty to a criminal count in addition to paying a penalty of roughly $790 million. The push for a criminal charge reflects "a newly tough stance" for the DOJ, which the paper notes has been slammed for going easy on the big banks. Prosecutors' fears that a criminal plea could destabilize RBS reportedly eased after the muted market reaction to a settlement in December of Libor-rigging charges by UBS that included a felony plea by the Swiss bank's Japanese arm.
UBS and Barclays agreed to pay a combined $2 billion last year to settle Libor-rigging probes.
For its part, RBS is said to worry that copping to a criminal charge would spur clients to cut off business and fuel private lawsuits. The Journal also echoes a report by Reuters that bankers discussed possibilities for an industry-wide settlement of Libor probes during a closed meeting on Thursday in Davos, although an official with one regulator tells the Journal that prospects for a pact represent "more wishful thinking than anything else." A banker called the suggestions of a multi-bank settlement "ill formed" at present.
Financial Times
The FT details some of the assumptions used by the Federal Reserve in its latest round of bank stress tests. JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley had to show they could weather, among other things, a doubling of German sovereign debt spreads, a 56% drop in the price of benchmark oil, a 42% fall in Brazil's main equity index, and a 160% widening of spreads on U.S. Treasuries. In all, the Fed gave the six banks roughly 30,000 risk factors against which to test their portfolios, according to the FT, which notes that how banks fare on the tests will determine how much capital they can return to shareholders in the form of dividends and stock buybacks. The banks submitted their data recently, with the results expected in March.
New York Times
Though former federal prosecutor Mary Jo White's work as partner at the law firm of Debevoise & Plimpton will force her to recuse herself from anything that ties to her previous clients, the Times says that President Obama's pick to run the SEC has a bigger problem: She has "zero experience" to help her to implement and enforce provisions of Dodd-Frank and to regulate electronic trading that even an experienced financier would find daunting. White's work as a lawyer for JPMorgan Chase, ex-Bank of America chief Ken Lewis, and former Morgan Stanley CEO John Mack, gives the Times pause, too. "Of course, if she is confirmed, we must all hope that she can put her previous client relationships behind her and work for her new client — us," Dealbook writes.

1992 Fiat Tipo i.e. 1.4
Good for slow paced commuting
Brake pump wasn't working properly requiring you to manually pump brake fluid by repetitve pressing of the brakes. Dangerous fault easily sorted by dealer, but only after I explicitly told them to do so. Merely pointing out that brakes were malfunctioning wasn't enough.
Ventilation system motor broke due to clogged pipes. Problem rectified quickly and cheaply.
Seat upholstery seems to be coming apart, but rest of the interior is faultless.
General Comments:
The 1.4 model is desperately slow and overtaking is a notion requiring a bit of consideration.
Handling is good and so is interior room and comfort from the suspension.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

De-bone the duck and cut it into 4 pieces, reserving the bones for later use. In a large bowl, combine the five-spice blackening powder, sugar, and tea. Place the duck pieces in the bowl, and let the meat marinate for 1 hour. Heat a grill pan or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add enough oil to coat the surface of the pan, and let the oil heat. Season the duck pieces with salt, if desired. Carefully add the duck pieces to the pan and reduce the heat to medium. Grill until cooked to desired degree of doneness, turning each piece with tongs halfway through cooking. Serve with Citrus Sauce, Couscous, baby spinach and mango slices, if desired.
Combine the citrus juices and zest, sugar, mustard, and eggs, and whisk well. Slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking constantly until the mixture becomes thick. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Drizzle sauce over duck.
Toast the trail mix in a dry medium skillet over medium-low heat until fragrant and golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the dry couscous to the skillet and continue to toast the mixture for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon. Remove pan from heat. In a large saucepot, combine the chicken stock and the duck stock and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the toasted trail mix and couscous mixture to the pot. Stir until incorporated and then cover the pot with a lid. Lower the heat to medium-low and allow the couscous to simmer until it absorbs the liquid. Fluff couscous with a fork and serve.
Place the duck bones in a large pot and add enough water to cover bones. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce the heat to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Let simmer for 2 hours. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.

With plenty of focus on the quarterback situation for Southern Miss, sometimes the guys on defense can get lost in the shuffle.
There are plenty of questions facing the Golden Eagles after losing Jamie Collins to the draft this year, but the unit knows that they have to look to their new leaders to take them to the top.
"It's hard to replace a player like Jamie. He was a great leader," USM senior linebacker Alan Howze said at the team's media day.
"At the same time you want to be able to match it and at the same time exceed it."
Senior defensive lineman Khyri Thornton is ready to erase the bad memories from 2012, but also bring back some positive one's from years past.
"I'm ready to come out there and play. I don't want people to remember us as the 0-12 team. I want them to remember us as the nasty bunch."
The Golden Eagles kickoff against Texas State at home August 31st.

Utility companies are changing to daily hourly-reading from monthly reading of meters. This results in large volume of data on meter reading and billing. Several utilities are transitioning to Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)/ Smart Grid to manage the change. This exerts pressure on the existing legacy Customer Information Systems (CIS).
The AMI/ Smart Grid implementation also brings in new business demands such as remote connect/ disconnect, automated outage detection, pre-pay service, and net metering.
This session explores avenues to create a CIS Road Map to AMI/ Smart Grid compliance successfully.

"I am sorry to see you like this," he said, "what is the matter?"
"I don't know."
"Doesn't the doctor know?"
She shook her head with a faint smile. "Sit down, Henrik, I want to talk to you," she said.
He took the low chair by her side. The mother looked at them from the door-way, but did not come out.
"I want you to forgive me," she said.
"That has been done long ago."
"Thank you—now listen. I have been wrong, wickedly wrong, it seems to me—listen! I have not been honest, neither with you, nor myself, nor with the Lord—which is the worst of all. I understood much that you taught me of the restored gospel—It seemed so easy to my understanding; but my pride was in the way, and I would not accept the light. I pushed it away. I kept saying to myself, 'It isn't true,' when I knew all the time that it was. That's the sin I have committed."
"My dear—"
"You remember that book you asked me to read? Well, I read it through, though I led you to believe that I did not. It is a beautiful book, and true, every word. * * * Perhaps you will not believe me when I tell you that I have been a number of times to your meetings in Osterhausgade. Once when you were there—I thought you would see me," she smiled. "And I could find no faults, though at first I went looking for them * * * Now, I've told you. You have forgiven me, you say; but will the Lord?"
"Yes; the Lord is good."
"When I get better—if I do—I am going to join the Church as you have done. That is the right thing to do, isn't it?"
"And then, may I go to where you and your cousin Rachel are working for the dead? When—when are you to be married?"
"Married? To whom?"
"Why, to your cousin Rachel. Are you not going to marry her?"
"Certainly not—never thought of it for a moment."
"Oh, dear, I must have made another mistake. Forgive me." She lay back on her cushions.
"Marie, when I get married, it's you I want for my wife. I have told you that before, and I haven't changed my mind. You shall be mine, if you will come back to the sweet days of long ago. Will you?"
He leaned over the couch, and she drew his face to hers. "Yes," she whispered.
At the end of an hour's conversation wherein much had been said, Marie asked: "May I go with you to the temple and there help you in the work you are doing? I believe I could help a little."
It was at that moment that the curtain lifted from the eyes of the mortal, and Henrik saw for an instant into the pre-existent world. A group of spiritual beings was eagerly engaged in conversation, and from out that group he heard the voice of one answering Marie's question.
"Yes; I think so; but we shall see."
"A friend of mine in his journey is come to me."—Luke 11:6.
