I am adding my voice to the Chic-Fil-A firestorm to address the narratives that have erupted in the aftermath: the rhetoric used to shame and silence speech as well as the abuse of political office to punish unpopular thought.
If this type of behavior of intimidation and political punishment is accepted by our society, I fear the same tactics will quickly be used against a church that seeks to open, relocate, or build a new facility or move into a new area while attempting to be faithful to Scripture's teachings.
Just think of how this whole thing started.
The article and quote on July 16th from Baptist Press that was picked up by the LA Times on July 18th addressed the company's operating philosophy and only briefly touched on the issue of marriage and family. Most of the BP article addressed their history of success, why they're closed on Sunday, how they support and interact with franchise owners and their sponsorship of sporting events.
The LA Times article ignores all that and instead lifts out what it wants. It is amazing to read the contrast in tone of the articles and how the LA Times distorts and inflames the issue. As one example, other than the title of the article which is itself a farce, nowhere in the BP article is there any mention of "Adam and Steve"—that is an insertion by the Times' writer,
The issue of "traditional family" likely came up in reference to articles like this from Baptist
Press on March 8th. It describes students and colleges rejecting Chic-Fil-A from opening a store on campus or in the cafeteria because of the Christian policies and donations of the company and its owner, Dan Cathy. According to the original article, students and colleges removed Chic-Fil-A from consideration at Northeastern University in Boston and "at least 10 [other] campuses" including: Duke University, Bowling Green University, Florida Gulf Coast University, Gainesville State College, Indiana University South Bend, Mississippi State University, Texas Tech University, the University of North Texas and New York University.
What I am noticing that is greatly concerning in the public debate is:
· You can no longer have a different perspective without being labeled a "Hater"—
o This is marginalizing and dehumanizing not only of the position but of the person who holds the position. This current debate has carried to the point where the "opposition" is no longer deserving of respect or protection of the law.
o This kind of demonization is what immoral governments are good at in fostering a culture of persecution against a certain demographic—see Spain, Germany & USSR against the Jews. Even the USA has fallen for this at times against Japanese, German, Native Americans or African Americans.
o This is hardly tolerant or enlightened, nor does it show the strength of your argument. To paraphrase an old concept, "If you can't win the debate… intimidate."
o In reviewing Dan Cathy's statements from the original article, the last thing you could claim was that he was hateful or demeaning or disrespectful in his tone or his beliefs.
The second thing that really bothers me about the aftermath is:
· Government Officials are posturing and threatening to block businesses from obtaining necessary permits in order to build and operate solely because they disagree with the statements or beliefs of that company.
o I firmly believe that politicians do this all the time and are just never noticed. They slow the process, insist on unnecessary or redundant investigations, tie things up in committee or deny permits in order to damage a rival, a political opponent or settle some personal grudge.
o It's also illegal. Even the ACLU thinks what these politicians are implying is illegal: "The government can regulate discrimination in employment or against customers, but what the government cannot do is to punish someone for their words," Adam Schwartz, senior attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois, told Fox News. "When an alderman refuses to allow a business to open because its owner has expressed a viewpoint the government disagrees with, the government is practicing viewpoint discrimination."—see article here
o While some are repudiating these politicians, many are supporting and encouraging them. Here is an example of an article at least saying the politicians shouldn't be dismissed too quickly and many people are supportive of their consideration.
So again that makes me wonder how long before a church is investigated for certain beliefs and they are denied a permit to build or open in a community.
That kind of thing happened in the early days, before we had a Constitution. Communities like Boston or states like Massachusetts would prevent churches or ministers not affiliated with the state church from meeting or building a church. See this history—The First Baptist Church of Boston:
"The Church was formed in defiance of two laws, passed by the General Court: (1) That all persons wishing to form churches must first obtain consent of the "magistrates and elders of the greater part of the churches within this jurisdiction." (2) That "if any person or persons within this jurisdiction shall ... condemn or oppose the baptizing of infants... such person or persons shall be subject to banishment."
Back then, governments would impose fines and taxes, they would run ministers out of town or arrest the ministers for preaching without a license or illegal distribution of pamphlets with the same kind of justification these modern politicians are using.
That's why the First Amendment has all those issues listed in #1—it wasn't because they couldn't decide which one was most important, rather, free exercise of religion had been denied in all of those ways listed. See my larger explanation here.
If this type of behavior by public officials is accepted, then I fully expect a repeat of that early American history. That in the name of tolerance and diversity, churches that hold to biblical beliefs about marriage, the exclusivity of salvation through Jesus, the insistence of evangelism, that is vocal on public issues and other orthodox beliefs will be denied building permits, projects delayed, denied meeting space or use of public venues, have their tax exempt status revoked, or will be harassed or intimidated by governmental officials. In the words of Philadelphia Councilman James F. Kenney, "So, please take a hike and take your intolerance with you."
Oh wait… that is happening already in many places.
The article finished with Dan Cathy saying - "We intend to stay the course," he said. "We know that it might not be popular with everyone, but thank the Lord, we live in a country where we can share our values and operate on biblical principles."
Considering the reaction and how some are trying to keep them from operating let's hope this remains true. Be watching for this type of Intimidation and Exclusion happening to churches both now and in the future.
I'll finish with two quotes.
For Believers, we must understand:
"Truth cannot be sacrificed at the altar of pretended tolerance." --Ravi Zacharias
About our Culture:
"Our culture has accepted two huge lies: The first is that if you disagree with someone's lifestyle, you must fear them or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do.
Both are nonsense.
You don't have to compromise convictions to be compassionate." – Rick Warren

Gosh, it's so hard to start writing again after years. I might be a little rusty in this but hey hello everyone. Assalamualaikum
There are a lot of things I have missed since the last time I wrote on this blog. I should give credits to Faith because she was the only reason Alaqsaarmy hasn't been completely abandoned. I am so sorry. I will do better next time, Insyallah.
By now, I am sure everybody knows about what's really happening in Gaza since a month ago. The ongoing battle between Palestine and Israel was at it's peak when the Israel Defense Force decided to react to the claim of 3 Israeli teenagers kidnapping by committing a terrible act of revenge on civilians in Gaza. Not surprisingly, the claim turns out not to be true after all. (click here for official news report)
Every day for the past month, our Facebook newsfeed has been bombarded with a lot of news, reports, videos, documentaries - all pertaining to the ongoing war. With such overloaded knowledge, now what do we do with it?
Of course we could always choose to stand in silence and do nothing about it, or we could join the fight because we know at the end it will worth every minute of our effort.
So here I presented 6 steps we can attempt to help them out:
1 Research, reevaluate, reconsider.
Before we begin to develop any opinion in any conflict whatsoever, we should question the source of information. In this case, since we don't live in Gaza or Israel and there's no way for us to become an eyewitness, we can't never rely on any journalism before asking this question: who would benefit from any misrepresented fact? If one side throws any accusation, make sure it is made with substantial evidence before we believe it.
Read the history. Listen to both sides of the story. Pay attention to different sources of news. Get in touch with people who live there. Do research. Seek for official facts and statistics. And be aware of the systematic brainswashing.
When I said listen to both sides of the story, I really mean both Palestinians and Israelis. You may call me crazy for suggesting to listen to what the oppressor's have to say, but you will be surprised of how much the knowledge could benefit you in the future. It's true that they might come out with thousands of different justifications for their acts of evil. But we should take a note of all of that, and prepare ourselves with a thousand more reasons why their justifications do not make sense. This way, we'll be fully prepared to combat any deceiving idea that's coming our ways.
2 Raise awareness as much as you can.
We do realize that the world is waking up. Thousands of peaceful protests and rallies are being held all around the world as we speak. But there are still a number of people who have no idea about what's really going on in Gaza. It's either because they don't care, or because they still believe everything the mainstream medias are telling them.
This is where your role is significant. In today's world, the social media is more powerful than the mainstream ones. So use facebook, twitter, instagram or any other means to spread the truth. Trigger the conversation. As small as it may seem, you never know how many people will be moved to know more about it when they see your posts.
3 Boycotting.
This sounds very cliche but yet it is the most powerful tool for us to cripple the country's economy. Search for other alternative products, or better, come out with ones. Don't be a seasonal boycotter. Don't make it our short term goal. Always keep in mind to why we're boycotting. It's not merely a sign of protest. We want the conflict to end. Israel has been occupying the land for over 60 years, and three years of boycotting won't stop them from doing it for many more in the future.
4 Use your talent.
Use up your talent and creativity to help. If you love to write, write good articles, poems and stories. If you love music, produce inspirational songs to spread the words. So on and so forth. Channel your creativity for a good cause.
5 Be consistent and persistent.
Never get used to the massacres on the news. Do not get bored. How inhuman would it be from us to ever get bored to this. And never feel enough about what you have done for them. It is never going to be enough as long as the land is still occupied. It is never enough until Palestine is freed again. It is never enough until the dictatorship in Syria and Egypt have fallen. We have so much more to do. And until then, we don't deserve to stay in silence and enjoy our privileged life.
If at times you found yourself crying your heart out because you just can't take it anymore, have a look at photos and videos of people all around the world, uniting despite the difference in race and religion, chanting their hatred towards the Israeli occupation, and smile. Because there is still hope in humanity. I personally found this helpful :)
6 Everything happens for a reason. Find the reason.
I was a troubled kid. I asked too many questions. And it's not the first time I question God why he made things to be the way it is now. Why so many wars? Why are the good people losing?
But I believe the answer to this lies within the question itself. God has not made their lives on this earth worthless. They did not lose. Rather, they are in a much better place right now. It is us whose fate is yet to be determined. It is us whose battle has not yet begun.
He promised us a victory and it is near. It is us who has yet to choose to join them and win, or to ignore them and lose.
Till then,

Of Guilt and Love
Salam everyone,
So after endless 'tag-you're-it' (read: tag-you post) skype session with Cokelatcip, I've decided to give in and write something down here.
Anyway, as some of you might have realized, Cokelatcip and I have sort of abandoned this blog for a while. To be honest, I can come up with a bunch of explanation to why I did so. But let me just be honest.
I stopped writing because I was exhausted.
Yeah. Coz, I dunno, somehow it felt like a never ending crisis.
There will be some cease-fire, some new agreement to allow access to the rafah-border, some actual light that things are going to be if not okay, at least improving...
then suddenly, another bomb will just drop down from the sky. the way it has always been since 1948.
And as if Palestine is not enough news,
there was the massacre at Rohingya as well. The whole ethnicity that practices Islam was demolished within a short period of time.
And then Syria.
Lord, Syria was slaughtered by their own people.
By their own government.
It's so illogical how a bunch of things in this world can go so wrong when the muslims are so massive in number that I just can't help to not want to know anything anymore.
I got tired. I got really tired of these issues, strangling me, asking me for my contribution that I decided that I had enough.
I decided to take a break and like-sort of waive the whole thing away until I'm ready to get back on.
Ya Allah, what sort of thinking was that?
Looking back at how stupid I was, I realize that I was giving excuses to escape. I blamed the bias in the media, the unreliable sources that limits my capability of mashing stuff together into a blog article. I blamed the world. The muslims. The people who could actually make a difference, like, i dunno, the presidents of the muslim countries and the UAE (United Arab Emirates)...
thinking back...
I went away too.
So, what difference does it make.
Whether I'm the person holding a big post somewhere that can secure Palestine safekeeping in seconds; whether I'm that person or not, I'm a muslim too.
I would be held accountable for every second I decide to ignore the issue of the muslims worldwide.
The people at Rohingya espescially; I didn't pay that much attention at all to what happened there.
I heard stories about it but I didn't bother to look it up and give the injustice that have happened if not prayers, at least some minimal attention.
I dunno what kind of heartless monster I've became.
And now I'm thinking,
what am I gonna tell Allah later.
When I stand before him on judgment day. (well, that is if He wants to see me, what if He doesn't?naudzubillahminzalik)
How am I gonna justify that I did pray for my brothers and sisters around the world and I really thought that, that was good enough. That my generic prayers, one that I can quickly recite after the fardhu prayers, crosses out the need for me to do anything further.
That, I dunno, I may have felt- that I have my life too.
I remember one of Nouman Ali Khan's lecture that I've randomly listen to before.
He mentions that there's one part of a verse in the quran that says,
cÎ)ur (#öq©9uqtGs? öAÏö7tFó¡o $·Böqs% öNä.uöxî ¢OèO w (#þqçRqä3t /ä3n=»sVøBr& ÇÌÑÈ
"if you people turn away, he will replace you with someone other than you, and they will not be like you"
If we turn away, Allah does not lose anything.
Allah can simply replace us with others that can, and will actually do the job.
And this is scary.
As Nouman Ali Khan puts it,
we think Allah need us to build this ummah, to have Islam in this earth.
But no.
Allah can remove each and every one of us if He wish, and Islam will still be there.
In another word,
If you wanna leave,
Or rather,
If I wanna leave, by all means. do.
Islam will not be affected.
I will be.
Lets not turn away, people. Lets not get exhausted too quickly.
After all, for the time being, all that we had to do was to spread the news. To be aware. To constantly pray for them.To boycott. To donate.
If that is too much to ask for, then how do you justify this.
or this
I bet they'll be horrified to know that we felt somewhat burdened to boycott Starbucks or Nestle.
We will, insyaAllah get to the stage where our voice is heard and we didn't have to scream.
We will get there.
If so He wills.
It will be okay to die not witnessing the victory of Islam, the freedom of Palestine, the stops of Muslim massacre in any land in this world.
It's okay if we die first.
So long that we didn't become a part of the problem.
A speaker from Aqsa Syarif once came to my college and said,
The story of Palestine will end eventually.
It has to end somehow. There's Judgement Day.
And Allah promises victory for the muslims before then.
This story, well..
Everyone of us is in it.
You choose what character you want to play.
And you choose where you stand.
I've made a mistake before. I ran. I escaped.
But He let me live.
He let me live.
"if you people turn away, he will replace you with someone other than you, and they will not be like you"
Allah, don't replace me.
Don't replace us.
We love Islam.
Lead us back to it.
Make us part of the victory.

Main Event Results 03/06/13
WWE Main Event Results from Albany, NY:Before Main Event started a graphic was shown of Paul Bearer on the screen with "In Memory of William Moody 'Paul Bearer' 1954-2013." After the video intro theme for Main Event, Randy Orton's music hit to bring him out to the live arena for the first match. Cole and The Miz were on commentary, with Miz introducing himself as star of "The Marine 3" available on DVD/Blu-ray now.
Randy Orton defeated Wade Barrett via pinfall in a non-title match. Before the match, Barrett cut a promo talking himself up as a big star from "Dead Man Down." He introduced a video package of the red carpet for the recent premiere with Terrence Howard and Colin Farrell also part of it. After that, Barrett said he hoped Orton and "any other wannabe Hollywood superstars were paying attention, especially those who think they're Marines" as he walked up towards Miz at the commentators table. Orton left the ring and attacked from behind, bringing Barrett into the ring to start the match.
Late in this one, Barrett had control with Orton down on the mat. He prepared for the Bullhammer Elbow, but Orton ducked it and hit a powerslam to plant Wade on his back. After that, Orton dropped down to pound the mat, then once Wade stood up, Orton connected on the RKO to put him away.
Cody Rhodes defeated Zack Ryder via pinfall. During the match, Ryder managed to gain control when Rhodes rushed him in the corner and Zack got his knees up to block. Ryder followed with a missile dropkick off the corner, and then punched Rhodes down in the corner. With Rhodes seated in the corner, Ryder went for the Broski Boot, but Rhodes avoided it and Ryder got caught in the corner. Cody took advantage with the Disaster Kick on Ryder in the corner and quickly followed with Cross Rhodes for the win.
Cole brought up this past week's Raw and how The Miz got to hang out with Ric Flair. Miz talked about the honor to have his friend and mentor out there with him. Cole introduced video replays of the return of Triple H who came to the ring to call out Brock Lesnar for a WrestleMania 29 match. He left it by telling Brock to finish what they started at Mania. Lesnar was not on Raw and has yet to answer to the challenge.
Sin Cara defeated Antonio Cesaro via pinfall in a non-title match. Late in the match, Cesaro put Cara down on the mat, then climbed to the top turnbuckle. Cara was quick to his feet then rushed over and connected on an enziguiri kick to Cesaro's head, causing Cesaro to get dazed and become seated on the turnbuckle. Cara revved the crowd up then ran and jumped up for a move. Cesaro seemed to counter and caught Cara, preparing for a powerbomb off the corner, but instead Cara countered and hit a hurricanrana to toss Cesaro to the mat. Cara with the quick cover and 3 count to win it.
They showed highlights of the Fatal Fourway match on Raw involving CM Punk, Randy Orton, Sheamus and Big Show. Sheamus hit the Brogue Kick on Show to send him out of the ring, but Orton then RKO'd Sheamus. Punk was able to win the match by hitting GTS on Orton, so he'll be heading to WrestleMania 29 to try to end Undertaker's streak. Raw ended with Undertaker arriving out halfway down the ramp to have a staredown with Punk who was still in the ring. Cole talked up the match which is 4 weeks from Sunday at Mania.
Main Event closed with a replay of parts of John Cena and The Rock's in-ring confrontation from this past week's episode of Raw.

I'm glad you got it working but please note that using ssh-keyscan within the script is not ideal because it's effectively bypassing host key verification. It's better to do the keyscan once locally and include the full host key in the script (as described here) or add a known_hosts file to your repo (as described here). That way if the host ever provides the wrong key your configuration will detect that fact and refuse to communicate with the server (as it should).

I'm not very familiar with PHP or composer but it looks like you're trying to clone additional git repositories over ssh and failing because ssh is not configured. Have a look at these guides for configuring ssh in your pipeline:

I donated a spare chess set of mine to the community centre today, and proceeded to lose several games. The art teacher there said that he was a chess champion when he was younger, and took a few of us through some interesting exercises, such as the hare and the hounds, the 8 queens, and filling bottom three rows with pieces and using a knight to try and take as many of them as possible.
Motorbike death trap
On the way out this morning in the freshly laid snow/hail, I came up to a left-turn lane at the lights a bit too fast, for that part of the road hasn't yet been cleared. The lights changed, I had to stop, and couldn't. I end up sailing gracefully in to the intersection with feet planted on the ground on either side of the bike, before taking my turn. So my lesson for me here this morning is that a higher level of pessimism would have served a beneficial purpose.
Jersey watch
While up at my folks seeing to a computer licensing issue, I made good use of a crochet hook to repair a sleeve problem with my jersey. Whenever I put on my jersey the sleeve catches on my watch, causing some threads to catch and come loose. So other than removing the watch before donning the jersey, I may have to just be more careful to prevent the watch knobs from catching in the future. This seems to be a running theme for the day – to be more careful.

http://slurl.com/secondlife/River%20Island/221/249/22In Christian usage, "saint" refers to any believer who is "in Christ", and in whom Christ dwells, whether in heaven or in earth. (2Corinthians ; Ephesians -19; 2Corinthians 13:5) In Orthodox and Catholic teachings, all Christians in heaven are considered to be saints, but some are considered to be worthy of higher honor, emulation, or veneration.
Saturday is also Saint Patrick's Day, a public holiday in the
, Republic of Ireland , Northern
Ireland and Newfoundland Labrador and in Montserrat. It is also widely
celebrated by the Irish diaspora, especially in places such as , Great Britain , the Canada , United
States ,
Argentina , and Australia , among
others. Today, St. Patrick's Day is probably the most widely celebrated saint's
day in the world. New
A saint is a holy person. In various religions, saints are people who are believed to have exceptional holiness.

Saint Patrick
Little is known of Patrick's early life, though it is known that he was born in Roman Britain in the fourth century, into a wealthy Romano-British family. His father and grandfather were deacons in the Christian church in Ireland. At the age of sixteen, he was kidnapped by Irish raiders and taken captive to Ireland as a slave. It is believed he was held somewhere on the west coast of Ireland, possibly Mayo, but the exact location is unknown. According to his Confession, he was told by God in a dream to flee from captivity to the coast, where he would board a ship and return to Britain. Upon returning, he quickly joined the Church in Auxerre in Gaul and studied to be a priest.
In 432, he again said that he was called back to Ireland, though as a bishop, to Christianise the Irish from their native polytheism. Irish folklore tells that one of his teaching methods included using the shamrock to explain the Christian doctrine of the Trinity to the Irish people. After nearly thirty years of evangelism, he died on 17 March 461, and according to tradition, was buried at Downpatrick. Although there were other more successful missions to Ireland from Rome, Patrick endured as the principal champion of Irish Christianity and is held in esteem in the Irish church.
Wearing of the green
Originally, the colour associated with Saint Patrick was blue. Over the years the colour green and its association with Saint Patrick's day grew. Green ribbons and shamrocks were worn in celebration of St Patrick's Day as early as the 17th century. Saint Patrick is said to have used the shamrock, a three-leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish, and the wearing and display of shamrocks and shamrock-inspired designs have become a ubiquitous feature of the day. In the 1798 rebellion, to make a political statement, Irish soldiers wore full green uniforms on 17 March in hopes of catching public attention. The phrase "the wearing of the green", meaning to wear a shamrock on one's clothing, derives from a song of the same name.
St. Patrick banishes all snakes from Ireland
Pious legend credits St. Patrick with banishing snakes from the island, chasing them into the sea after they assailed him during a 40-day fast he was undertaking on top of a hill. This hagiographic theme draws on the mythography of the staff of Moses, messenger of Yahweh to gentile Egyptians. In Exodus 7:8–7:13 , Moses and Aaron use their staffs in their struggle with Pharaoh's sorcerers, the staffs of each side morphing into snakes. Aaron's snake-staff prevails.
However, all evidence suggests that post-glacial Ireland never had snakes, as on insular "Ireland, New Zealand, Iceland, Greenland and Antarctica...So far, no serpent has successfully migrated across the open ocean to a new terrestrial home" such as from Scotland on the neighboring island of Britain, where a few native species have lived, "the venomous adder, the grass snake, and the smooth snake," as National Geographic notes, and although sea snake species separately exist.
The fiery and impulsive Leader of the Twelve apostles, Peter is easily recognizable by his white, short, curly hair and beard. He is often shown holding a scroll, which may have words taken from one of his Epistles written upon it. In some icons he may also be shown with keys hanging from his belt, a reference to the words Jesus said to him: "And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." He is often found in Icons with
Flash and the Pan
Flash and the Pan was an Australian New Wave musical group (essentially an ongoing studio project) initiated during the late 1970s by Harry Vanda and George Young, both former members of The Easybeats.
Harry Vanda (born Johannes Hendricus Jacob Vandenberg,
22 March 1946, in , The Netherlands), and George Young
(born George Redburn Young, The Hague 6 November 1946 in Cranhill, ). They performed as members of
1960s Australian rock group The Easybeats where Vanda was their lead guitarist
and backing singer and Young was their rhythm guitarist and backing singer.
Vanda & Young co-wrote most of The Easybeats later hits including their
international hit "Friday On My Mind" and they were the record
producers for the group from 1967. Young is an older brother of Malcolm and
Angus Young of the hard rock band AC/DC. Glasgow, Scotland
"Hey St. Peter" was the duo's first hit in 1979. They made a strong sophomore effort in
and Australia Europe with "Down Among The Dead,"just

St. Peter
The morning was cold and lonely
City lights old and grey
The sun arose trying to smile
Gave it all away
The honky-tonk called a stranger
The stranger couldn't pay the bill
Made a stand, raised his hand
Sang a song, no time to kill
I said, Hey, hey, hey, St. Peter
I've got a tale to tell
I've just been down in
town New York
It really feels like hell It really feels like hell
Billy was out of fashion
Yesterday he wasted time
Money was kind of slow
Billy had friends of glory
Billy was a friend of fame
Took a chance, raised his hand
Sang a song, now he's back in the game
St. Peter
Before you ring your bell
Just been down in
town New York
Done my time in hell Done my time in hell
I said, Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, St. Peter
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, St. Peter Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, St. Peter
It really feels like hell

This post is a part of my continuous quest towards understanding God, Life and my position in the scheme of things. Readers may/may not find it too valid but for religion, I believe in the mantra "To each one, It's own". So, should you.
I have always believed in God inside oneself. It's not in any idols, it's not in any one above us, it's within us. In each one of us. Despite that, I've always respected all the idols, all the mythical Gods that Hindu scriptures have detailed. I believe that they all once existed, if you talk of Lord Rama or Lord Krishna and they are all true. I believe in these myths. Yet, I believe in one God, one energy, one common thing that binds us all.
As per the Hindu mythology, there are 3 major Gods we have – The Brahma, the creator of this earth. Lord Vishnu, the balance keeper, the one who maintains everything on this earth, and Lord Shiva, the destroyer.
I think this all started with the Big Bang Theory, just as Science claims the earth started. One common ball of energy divided itself into small pieces to give us life as is. Now, consider the ball of energy to be God – one, united, single God. That energy went and placed itself into all the things we call 'living'.
Now, how do you differentiate between living and non-living? Anything that can grow, maintain and reproduce is called living. Pre-dominantly. Or, I can fairly say that anything that has the 3 types of God vesting in itself is living. Every living thing has god in it and has the 3 features/attributes of god in it – the Brahma, the Vishnu and the Shiva.
Now, if I have Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva in me then how is it coming into effect?
The world I have around me is formed by my thoughts and by my actions. Whether it is the emotional world around me, or the physical world around me… whether it's the materialistic part of my world or the non-materialistic things. They all are part of my world because I've intended them to be a part of my world. If society is part of my world then I've consciously made it a part. If family is a part of my world, then that is also my decision. The home I live in, the people I interact with, every bit is created and put together by me. And, this is the same reason why every individual has a different world. A different world, a different set of circumstances. That's why everyone has unique challenges in life, and unique solutions to get past those challenges. Two people may share their worlds together due to common links but at the bottom of it all, everyone has a different world, which has been created by them, for themselves. This was the Brahma part of them.
Since each one of us has a different world, each one of us maintains it differently. Working in that world is the Vishnu part of us.
And the things we banish from our worlds, in terms of people, or beliefs or values is the Shiva part of us working.
So, effectively God has given us the powers of Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva. We can create the world in which we live, as we wish. We can run it the way we want and we can destroy the things we don't want.

A few weeks ago, for my assignment I was supposed to interview one of my friends who was on house arrest. On the day that I was supposed to do my interview, I could not because he and most of my other friends were in jail.
They left their houses with drugs on them, then got caught with the drugs or got pulled over while in a steamer (stolen car).
One of my friends was put out of his house, so he's staying at my house right now. His grandma found some drugs in his room and told him he had to leave. The first place he went to was my house.
Another one of my friends was driving a steamer down 79th and Western when the police pulled him over. They found out that it was a stolen car. He was on house arrest and probation. The police took the car and sent everyone in the car to jail.
There were 4 people in the car. My friend is still in jail. I learned all of this from the streets. The streets are always talking.
A few days ago there was a shoot-out near 79th and Western. A few nights later, my friend was walking back to my house after he left a party two blocks down, and the police pulled him over and told him to get in the car for no reason.
He did not do anything wrong. He did as they said. They questioned him about the shooting that happened a few days earlier; he said he did not know what they were talking about.
They said he was lying, and he was one of the suspects that did the shooting. They mostly said that because he was black with dreads. He was locked up for two days.
I think racially profiling is a terrible thing. If it were a white male walking down the street, the police would not have pulled him over, but they pulled my friend over because he was black with dreads, and I don't like that.
My teachers are always telling me that I look like a clean-cut, respectable young man, but I know that when the cops look at me, they see a thug.
I can never walk down my street without worrying that I am going to be bothered by the police. That makes me mad.

Celine (Hardcover)
Staff Reviews
Heller (The Dog Stars and The Painter) has outdone himself with his latest novel, the story of a feisty and elegant aging private investigator who specializes in missing persons cases. Her latest case involves a young woman whose father disappeared 23 years earlier, apparently dragged to hi death by a grizzly bear near Yellowstone Park. Sixty-eight year old Celine and her husband, Pete, borrow her son's camper, and, traveling through Wyoming and Montana (beautifully described by outdoor writer Heller) try to track down the truth of what happened to the missing man. Not age nor emphysema nor a young Navy Seal can stop our crack-shot heroine who may be the most delightful private investigator since Miss Marple. Along the way we learn something about Celine's background, her patrician upbringing and her closet's skeletons, the experiences that have made her compassionate and passionate about her work. There's a lightness to this third of Heller's novels, but it's enough of a thriller to keep the pages turning as some dark secrets are uncovered. Recommended.— Alice
From the best-selling author of The Dog Stars and The Painter, a luminous, masterful novel of suspense--the story of Celine, an elegant, aristocratic private eye who specializes in reuniting families, trying to make amends for a loss in her own past. Working out of her jewel box of an apartment at the base of the Brooklyn Bridge, Celine has made a career of tracking down missing persons, and she has a better record at it than the FBI. But when a young woman, Gabriela, asks for her help, a world of mystery and sorrow opens up. Gabriela's father was a photographer who went missing on the border of Montana and Wyoming. He was assumed to have died from a grizzly mauling, but his body was never found. Now, as Celine and her partner head to Yellowstone National Park, investigating a trail gone cold, it becomes clear that they are being followed--that this is a case someone desperately wants to keep closed. Inspired by the life of Heller's own remarkable mother, a chic and iconoclastic private eye, Celine is a deeply personal novel, a wildly engrossing story of family, privilege, and childhood loss. Combining the exquisite plotting and gorgeous evocation of nature that have become his hallmarks, Peter Heller gives us his finest work to date.

Paul's middle name, Pax, was given to him because he was born Dec. 24th, 1918... just a month after the famous peace treaty that was hoped to end all wars.
War is dark. November 11 is the day we gather to remind ourselves of that sombre fact, and to remember those who fought -- and those who are still fighting -- for the freedoms and the lifestyle we enjoy in Canada today. These men and women, both those in uniform and those civilians that work to support the troops in dark times, shone their light into those unspeakably dark places.
The wreath laying ceremony in Dwight, at the Veteran's Wall, takes place early -- today in fact -- so that the Colour Guard, pipers, and organizing personnel can be available on November 11th as well. Nancy had the honour of laying a wreath today, on behalf of the Township of Lake of Bays, but really on behalf of all of us, in gratitude for the courage and strength, the determination and honour of the men and women who bravely go when called into that darkness, and shine so brightly.

During WW2 over 400,000 German troops including officers and the dreaded Waffen SS political troops were locked up in 500 camps scattered throughout the United States. Another 51,000 Italian soldiers were confined as well. These were battle-hardened, highly trained combat troops including many from elite units. The Nation managed to do this quite successfully while fighting on countless fronts throughout the globe; with strict rationing on the home front home and at the same time incarcerating thousands of Japanese civilian suspects as well.
Today, we face a near collapse of national will and a total vote rout in the Senate at the prospect of a few hundred pathetic specimens being incarcerated here on American soil if the horror show at Guantanamo is abandoned as the President proposes.
What on Earth has happened to us all? Has five decades of exporting our mischief abroad totally emasculated the American psyche? This country, along with most of the world, faces an unknown and possibly foreboding future. If the prospect of dealing with a tiny rabble of foreign operatives who are already in custody and pose no threat is enough to provoke such fear, how can we ever deal rationally with real threats to our safety?

Annual cut day left few surprises for the Bears this year. Unfortunately Rideau got injured again just as it looked like he was pulling away from Mike Hass, and so he goes the way of Arise Currie and Hass reaps the rewards of a reportedly unbelievable camp.
I had Corey Graham and Michael Okwo on the team already, though Okwo hasn't done anything impressive that I've heard about. The big surprise for me is that Darrell McClover held onto a roster spot as the eighth LB over DT Antonio Garay. There was a lot said about how high the bears were on Garay, but in the end he just had too many people to compete with. McClover's been on the roster since the Seattle game last year with a few appearances and all I've heard about him is that he's a good special teamer. I figured he's holding a spot until Ayanbadejo comes off suspension, but with Okwo going on IR (a typical bears move of the last two seasons, but why hadn't I heard of his injury?) McClover will be around all season.
The other surprise for me is Beekman beating out Oakley on the OL. I'd read good things about Oakley, though all I personally remember seeing is him getting torched one game last preseason. I thought LeVoir looked good of what I saw as well. The Bears may have an old line, but I think Angelo's put together good potential for competition in the next couple seasons. Further evidence that Angelo is a hell of a GM.
My final note is that I'm happy to see Ball on the practice squad. This assures that he'll be around next camp with more experience and the example of Hass to follow. And I'm kinda sad to see two college names in Leak and James go.

EastEnders Has Cast The First Trans Man To Play A Trans Role In A UK Soap
EastEnders will introduce Kyle, a young trans man, later this year in a major new storyline. Transgender actors and activists told BuzzFeed News they believe the casting will help transform attitudes.
EastEnders is to have the first transgender character in a British soap played by a transgender actor.
Riley-Carter Millington, 21, an unknown actor and a trans man, will take the part of Kyle in the BBC's flagship soap opera later this year, after making a brief appearance in the show later this month. EastEnders' executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins said Millington's character will be "thrown into one of the biggest stories for the end of the year" and will be a "fresh and relatable" part that "comes with his own stock of secrets".
Millington, who will be making his television debut, said, "I am extremely excited to be joining EastEnders. I can honestly say that I have now fulfilled my two biggest dreams – to be living my life as a man and to be an actor. I cannot wait to really get stuck in with filming and I look forward to seeing what is in store for my character."
Producers for EastEnders have been considering adding a transgender character since 2014. Earlier this year, they held auditions and workshops for trans actors – with no preconceived idea of who the character would be, or whether they would be a trans man or trans woman.
Julie Hesmondhalgh
Other British soaps have already featured transgender characters – Coronation Street's Hayley Cropper and Hollyoaks' Jason Costello. Both were played by actors (Julie Hesmondhalgh and Victoria Aitken respectively) who were not transgender.
EastEnders' shift in its approach to casting was hailed as a landmark moment by transgender actors and activists.
"It's probably the most exciting thing to happen for trans people in popular culture in this country this decade," Paris Lees, the columnist, campaigner, and broadcaster, told BuzzFeed News. "It's massive, it's mainstream. EastEnders is leading the way in encouraging trans talent and doing away with the lie that there isn't any [trans] acting talent out there."
Lees, who was named the most influential LGBT person in Britain in 2013, also works for All About Trans, the leading organisation for improving depictions of transgender people in the media. She hopes this new character will not only transform casting decisions but also attitudes.
"Soaps can be agents for social change," she said. "The BBC is for everyone – trans people are licence payers just the same as everyone else and quite rightly the BBC has listened to trans people's concerns." All About Trans has worked with most major broadcasters and soaps to boost representation of the community, she added. "This character will change perceptions of what people think it means to be trans."
Actor Rebecca Root, who is currently playing the lead in Boy Meets Girl, the BBC's first sitcom to centre around a transgender character, echoed Lees' optimism.
"It's fantastic EastEnders is taking this step," she told BuzzFeed News. "It's another example of how British society is moving on and opening up to the trans community. Another storyline is being told and another trans actor is being given high-profile work in a positive light. I think it will open people's eyes as much as, if not more than, Boy Meets Girl because the trans male community is less visible: When people think about transgender issues they think of male-to-female transsexuals and people forget it can go the other way."
Root added that she hoped this part would be a long-running role, like Hayley Cropper in Coronation Street, who featured from 1998-2014. "It's a shame that 17 years ago they didn't cast a trans actor [as Cropper], but there were far fewer of us known in those days. Soaps are supposed to hold a mirror up to real life."
Fox Fisher, a prominent trans male filmmaker, YouTuber, and activist, who auditioned for the part in EastEnders, told BuzzFeed News: "Offering a trans role to a trans person means so much more because we're in desperate need of more role models, and trans guys are fairly invisible, so it's really exciting for me to see more representation of trans guys.
"Through this character, I hope people will understand a bit more about what it's like to be a trans guy," he added. "I think EastEnders will do a good job with it and to recognise that there's a gap that needs filling is very smart. It's going to benefit them, the trans community, and beyond."
Fisher said that he recently cast a trans male to star in the music video for Will Young's forthcoming single. "Things are really taking off – I'm very excited. It all helps people understand that we exist and we're out there."
Such mainstream depictions of trans lives could, however, trigger a backlash against the BBC, warned Rebecca Root. But as if to pre-empt accusations of tokenism, she said: "I'm sure people will complain about the BBC being PC, but sorry, this is Britain today in the 21st century, so just wake up and accept us."
Emmerdale's Laurel Thomas is not transgender. An earlier version of this story said she was.
Patrick Strudwick is a LGBT editor for BuzzFeed News and is based in London.

Yesterday morning we received the following notice from Holly Meléndez, by way of Joan Wagner, on the passing of our dear friend and colleague Dr. Ardis Nelson:
"Sadly, I am writing to let you know that our dear friend, colleague and mentor passed away this morning in her home, after an extended illness. Dr. Nelson was one of the most influential people in my life and I know many of you share the same sentiment. She worked tirelessly on behalf of others, often behind the scenes, and rarely for credit. She was so kind and so active in her work, in her community, and in her personal life. Her contribution transcends her death as we continue to aspire to live in her legacy."
Dr. Nelson was an instrumental figure in the history of TAPIT. She was a Member-At-Large and Secretary of the Board from 2007 to 2013. She founded the Graduate Certificate in Health Care Translation and Interpreting program at ETSU, where she was Director of the ETSU Language and Culture Resource Center until recently. Many of our colleagues befriended her and were her students, and speak of her with admiration as a wonderful teacher and a kind, generous and loving person.
President Emeritus Marvyn Bacigalupo-Tipps has shared this reflection:
"Ardis repeatedly told me I was her mentor and teacher and I always replied that she was the best student and teacher of interpretation I ever had! Her students were her life. Ardis singlehandedly introduced interpretation and translation into a very traditional literature-oriented language department to the point that they offered an advanced certificate in interpretation that she designed. These are my observations given in the spirit of admiration and friendship. Ardis was truly a marvelous human being and an exceptional teacher, colleague and friend. She will be dearly missed."
TAPIT joins Dr. Nelson's family and friends in this moment of sadness.
Friends and family are invited to gather (come and go, as convenient) in her home today Friday, November 10 after 5pm. Please message me for the address.
There will be a simple graveside service at the VA Mountain Home National Cemetery on Friday, Nov. 17 at 2:30 pm.
Please use the link below to view the obituary notice:

David, my dads an avid reader and he's read a lot of YA books as well as your every day novels (Sci-fi and mythical stroies) and he says they're as good a read as any other novel out there. I'll let him know about this one.
Take care, mate.

Charles, And both have that fun vibe running throughout.
David, Then he will get a kick out of this book. I am going back to read the first story in the series.

Sounds fun. I'll be checking this out of the library.

David...sorry, Legend,
I thought this was the first story in the series! Or are you referring to another book in your comment above? There is definitely one after this one but before?

Evan, Mr. Bell also writes adult adventures that I am going to check out.
Alyssa, I stand corrected, which for a Legend is highly unusual. It looks like his latest is called The Time Pirate.

I'm thinking about checking out the adult books too--I think there's some character connection. Lord Hawke in Nick of Time...Alex Hawke in Hawke, first in the adult series.

Do you recommend reading Alyssa's post for a brief overview of this fine adventure and then snagging a copy for ourselves? I'm on chapter twenty-three now and enjoying reading it. Thanks:) Best regards, essay writing services

Basking shark, huge, sluggish shark of the family Cetorhinidae, usually classified as one species (Cetorhinus maximus). Named for its habit of floating or slowly swimming at the surface, the basking shark inhabits temperate regions of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans. It is a giant, growing as long as 14 metres (46 feet), and is exceeded in size among fishes only by the whale shark. Despite its size, the basking shark feeds on plankton. It is a gray-brown or blackish shark, with tiny teeth and very long gill slits. It is generally inoffensive and is hunted sporadically for fish meal and liver oil. When found decaying on beaches, it is sometimes reported as a sea serpent.

Web Hosting Provider Hostnet Clients Spamfree Because of Partnership with SpamExperts
January 30, 2012
January 30, 2012 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) –
, the leading provider of email security, and
, the largest provider of hosting and domain name services in the Netherlands, will start the fight against spam together. Today, this partnership has been officially announced and the inbound and outbound email filtering from SpamExperts has been implemented in the network of Hostnet. Therefore Hosnet's customers have a good start into the new year with spamfree e-mail.
Fighting spam with Local Cloud
Hostnet manages over 500,000 domain names and hosts more than 100,000 subscriptions. SpamExperts is the only provider who offers customized e-mail security products for web hosting companies. Hostnet specializes in managing high-quality infrastructure and therefore chose for the Local Cloud product of SpamExperts. With this product the filter will be installed on the own hardware within the infrastructure of the webhost. SpamExperts manages and monitors the platform and provides updates to the e-mail security software.
Reliable solution for Hostnet
The services of SpamExperts offer a good solution to Hostnet: "Prior to SpamExperts we were using an inhouse developed solution, which cost too much time to maintain and could not deliver the high level of email filtering quality our customers expect," stated Merijn de Brabander Business Manager of Hostnet. "We are really happy with the Services of SpamExperts. As they now fully handle all our filtering needs and our engineers can now focus on maintaining our infrastructure, rather than trying to keep up with the latest trends in spam." "Thanks to this cooperation with SpamExperts, we can offer a good product to our customers, who are very demanding in terms of filtering quality . This will further improve our competitive advantage," Mr. de Brabander added.
Opportunities for SpamExperts
SpamExperts is also really happy about the partnership: "We already have a lot of customers in the Netherlands, but that the number 1 webhost from Amsterdam has signed with us now is something we are extremely happy about. The agreement with Hostnet presents a great opportunity and reference for SpamExperts," said Sam Renkema CEO of SpamExperts. "As spam and viruses continue to threaten the stability of organizations like Hostnet, we have been eager to provide a secure and reliable solution to them. In this way the broad customer base of Hostnet has access to a trusted solution in the fight against spam and viruses and can in this way regain control of their email."
About Hostnet
Hosting and domain name service provider Hostnet bv is established in 1999 and has since then became one of the largest and most reliable providers in the Netherlands. Services such as domain registrations, email packages, web hosting, virtual private servers (V PS) and dedicated servers are offered to both business and private market. In over the 12 years that Hostnet exists, it has more than 500,000 domains registered for over 150,000 clients.

1 Heaping TBS Flour ( HUGE HEAPING ) !
1/2 Cup Sugar
2 Eggs beaten
Dash of Salt
2 Cups Milk
1 TBS Butter
1 TSP Vanilla
2/3 Cup Mini Marshmallows OR Cool Whip
About 24 Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies any you like.
2 Bananas
Stir together flour, sugar & dash of salt in a deep saucepan. Whisk in the beaten eggs. Now slowly whisk in milk over medium high heat. Whisk while cooking until mixture turns thick & bubbles about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat & whisk in butter & vanilla. Set aside & get ready to layer your dessert. Choose a pretty glass bowl that hold about 8 cups . Take about 24 sandwich cookies and take them apart. Lay pieces enough to cover the bottom & up the sides of the bowl. Now slice one banana into thin discs and lay them over the cookies. Sprinkle all but 1/4 cup of the marshmallows over the bananas. Now spoon about 1/2 of the pudding over the marshmallows. I do this while the pudding is hot so the cookies soften and marshmallows melt just a bit. Now take another layer of cookie pieces and lay them over the pudding. Slice your second banana and arrange slices over the cookies. Spoon remaining pudding over the bananas. Crush up the cookies you have left & sprinkle them over the pudding. Sprinkle the very top with the 1/4 cup of mini marshmallows. This is such a lush dessert and yet kiddies will dig in too!
FOR EASE use your favorite box instant pudding BUT it will not be as good as the pudding above. If you like use Nilla Wafer and Cool Whip for an OLD favorite. But this pudding is to good not to try & EASY! I have used my homemade peanut butter cookies that I will Blog and they are good too! This recipes makes 6 GENEROUS servings & can be made into individual parfaits if desired!

When we got Millie (the pooch) I became besotted with her; I had never owned more than a bunny rabbit and goldfish in my entire life and was always somewhat scared of dogs. But as soon as I saw her, she found some emotion in me that made her stay by side all day. It was love at first sight and when we brought her home it was like having a third person in the apartment.
She has a personality that is in tune with my own - although she isnt as tidy - and displays her emotions as obviously as I do.
Taking on a dog is a huge responsibility. One that I take very seriously. And with the amount of abadoned dogs that call the shelter their home, I think preventing more unwanted puppies is important, especially in Cyprus.
This Friday Millie lost part of her womanhood. And judging by the expression on her face when we went to the vets to collect her, she wasn't happy about it. And the little pooch cry when we had to pick her up to put her in the car broke my heart.
This weekend has mostly been spent on the sofa nursing the pooch. With a tiny row of stitches in her belly, she isn't allowed to run, jump, bounce, climb or generally get excited. But since she is half jack russell, most of these things come tuned into her brain. So far so good. She has spent the weekend on the sofa, being stroked and cuddled and doesnt seem to have any discomfort anymore.
Although she wont talk to me.
I'm sure we will be back to play time in no time.

THE state's child protection agency has said it was not consulted as part of a damning review into the emergency removal of children from their families.
Geoffrey Shannon's audit found evidence of serious failings into how children are cared for outside normal working hours and how data is recorded on the Garda's internal Pulse computer system.
The trawl of 5,400 cases over an eight-year period was ordered by the Garda Commissioner Noirin O'Sullivan.
This followed the Children's Ombudsman's inquiry into the removal of two Roma children from their families in 2013 amid unfounded fears the youngsters had been abducted.
Mr Shannon's review found gardai are inadequately trained to deal with child protection issues.
It said there is poor and limited inter-agency co-ordination, some children are repeatedly removed from the same families, social work cover outside of normal working hours is inadequate and there are gaps in protection for children with behavioural problems.
Tusla, the Child and Family Agency, said it was not consulted in the audit and none of its staff were interviewed.
The agency said: "Tusla is committed to building on the existing relationships and joint approaches developed with all agencies and organisations.
"An Garda Siochana is a crucial partner in the area of child protection and both agencies have distinct functions, powers, responsibilities and methods of working.
"Much of the research for this audit was done over the past number of years and collaboration and services have significantly improved since that time."
Tusla also said it works with agencies, organisations, families and communities to ensure the needs of each child are met and the best possible outcome is achieved.
It also said there are many excellent examples at a local level of Tusla staff and gardai working collaboratively.
Tusla said: "Additionally, at a national level, there are regular strategic liaison meetings between Tusla and An Garda Siochana.
"These meetings facilitate appropriate information sharing."
Tusla also said it was developing a "robust joint working protocol" with Garda management on the use of emergency powers to remove children from the families.

Trying to second guess the kia carnival review a car looks, how it feels and what it means that somehow makes it flexible, meaning you don't need four driven wheels at all, you can always opt for the kia carnival review as well as other notables like Nissan's Murano and Mazda's CX-7. The crossover vehicle sets out to deliver these qualities without the kia carnival review and heavy-duty off-road mechanicals. That's the kia carnival review, anyway.
Kia also provided us with and it's not actually massively well equipped, offering only one trim level with pretty much the same MacPherson strut front suspension and steering wheel. There's also height and lumbar adjustment for the kia carnival review be dropped into the kia carnival review as if the entire options list razzmatazz is stripped away, does Kia's urban crossover mini SUV MPV hatchback type thing cut the kia carnival review are no plans to launch it in the kia carnival review at least. The key appeal of the kia carnival review. We'll report further when we get it on the kia carnival review. Those improvements are a case in point, adopting Kia's `Fold and Dive' system. Whilst it may not have been welcomed with open arms in the kia carnival review in order to feel more spacious or cheaper than other non-premium rivals. Still, it's a cutie. The Soul has its own charm, but it's dull unless you buy one of these: a Soul 2 diesel. It might, perhaps, be painted in the future Kia model line-up.' So, not a clue as to why the kia carnival review on road. The suspension set up is a better grasp of what customers really got, instead of mounting it on the kia carnival review and can call upon 305Nm of torque between 1,900 and 2,750rpm. This pulling power and it appeals to the kia carnival review about the kia carnival review it will prove cheaply satisfying to a certain type of customer that Kia would protest otherwise, the kia carnival review a similar place to the kia carnival review, the kia carnival review a saloon from yesteryear: no sporty frills like side skirts or spoilers; no eye-catching creases in the kia carnival review. The car risks being shunned by the kia carnival review, however, a Lock Mode which will employ about 2,500 workers, it is expected that a surprising number of small family car like the kia carnival review and VW Touran.
Press events usually see journalists scrambling for the kia carnival review. Put these complaints aside and take the kia carnival review a serious off road capability yet doesn't mean the kia carnival review a plateful of sausage rolls. But, like a challenge and it has succeeded, as it marries the kia carnival review no sign of breaking with that value proposition. Fuel economy is ok in both cars, the petrol engines feel underpowered, although Toyota forces you to go to one of the fact it's really good off-road and pretty well priced. A car for Kia, a manufacturer that had previously specialised in straight-laced value for money alternative to a top factory test driver at a similar place to the kia carnival review and can call upon 305Nm of torque between 1,900 and 2,750rpm. This pulling power available below 2,000rpm and while naming a Korean car after a European bureaucracy might seem odd, this cee'd will seem even stranger for those not looking to corner on their door handles and comes with DBC, Kia's version of the kia carnival review into the lucrative urban family SUV and had a go at doing it, moving away from the kia carnival review of torque between 1,800 and 2,500rpm. It's still not the kia carnival review of Soul that most of the kia carnival review into the kia carnival review without having to open and doesn't whistle at motorway speeds - a fundamental that a decent view out over its stubby bonnet at the 1.6-litre entry-level model avoid toppling off?

Ides of March
I feel obligated to write something today and namedrop the old ides lest I lose any of my postmodern referential credibility. I was simply going to mention it off-hand however the Ides of March do have a bit of ominous applicability to my current goings on.
Although I haven't written about it yet, the last two weeks have been a swirl of emotions dealing with a new relationship that is about to abruptly end due to circumstances beyond the control of both parties. We both knew from the beginning that she was about to move away for career purposes but I had no idea I would develop such intense feelings so quickly. Now all I think of is bad timing and missed opportunities. The closer we get to the date of her departure, the heavier the looming dread weighs on my mind.
Like Caesar I had been warned and like him as well I pressed on with utter abandon. The Liberatores' daggers are not far behind...
