This visit is actually an indication of the strategic importance we have attributed to Asia, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan told journalists accompanying him in a plane during his return from Tajikistan where he attended the 5th Summit of the Heads of State of the Conference on Interaction and Confidence Building Measures in Asia (CICA), adding that Turkey was working hard to develop good relations in all regions, Trend reports citing Daily Sabah.
President Erdogan addressed world leaders during the summit and conducted separate bilateral meetings with various heads of states, including the presidents of Tajikistan, Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Iran, Uzbekistan, Cambodia, and Afghanistan.
"We will try to develop relations in the west, east, north, and south," he said.
Stressing the importance of peace, stability, and cooperation in the world, Erdogan noted that the world cannot ignore the ongoing war in Syria nor some 4 million Syrian refugees.
Erdogan said he also drew attention to the regional and global impacts of the Syrian war and Turkey's political efforts to solve the problem during the summit.
"It is clear that unilateral approaches cannot produce a solution for peace and stability in the world today. I have seen that the leaders of the other countries participating in the summit have expressed this view strongly, like myself," Erdogan said.
The president, commenting on the bilateral relations between Turkey and Russia which have been "at a very good state," noted that Turkey's current highest trade volume was with Russia and had recently surpassed 25 billion dollars.
Erdogan also said the TurkStream pipeline will be inaugurated at the end of this year.
Touching upon the nuclear power plant construction that has been carried out in cooperation with Russia, Erdogan said that a total of 200 engineers have been sent to Russia for training.
Erdogan noted that with Putin they had also discussed the Ankara's S-400 missile deal with Moscow, adding that the issue was an "already closed one."
Regarding Turkey's relations with China, Erdogan said both countries were planning to reach a trade volume of $50 billion as he had previously discussed with his Chinese counterpart.
Touching on the One Belt One Road Project, a modern Silk Road Project initiated by China, Erdogan said that Turkey has been conducting bilateral meetings with relevant countries as Turkey's strategic location was highly important for the project, adding that the subject will also be discussed at the G20 Summit to be held in Japan's Osaka at the end of June.
Saying that the defense industry will also be a matter of discussion in bilateral meetings held with the G20 summit's participant countries, Erdogan said that the recent developments regarding Turkey's defense industry were also a highly interesting subject during the summit in Tajikistan.
Answering a question about Turkey's response to the letter from the U.S. on S-400 missile systems, Erdogan said that the National Defense Ministry will soon respond to it.
"Our decision is clear. We won't compromise on the S-400 issue," Erdoğan asserted, adding that it was the same for the F-35 issue as Turkey did what it had to do.
This issue will also be discussed in full detail with the United States President Donald Trump at the G20 Summit, he added.
Erdogan expressed hope that this issue will soon be resolved as there should be no such problem between two strategic partners, and NATO allies.
Regarding the U.S.-Iran crisis, Erdogan said that they had mainly discussed bilateral economic relations at the summit.
Commenting on French President Emmanuel Macron's recent comments on the East Mediterranean and the arrest warrants issued for the crew of the Turkish drillship Fatih, Erdogan said: "Those who have the right to speak about the Eastern Mediterranean can speak. When did France have the right to speak on the Eastern Mediterranean? Do they have a coast in the Eastern Mediterranean?"

I mentioned in the last post that I like writing a column in part because a column is usually in the word-count range I'm most comfortable with. It's a bit of a surprise to me that there are people who have trouble writing short stuff. Of course, all my life I've been a "short stuff" sort of person. I like working small, and it hasn't always been seen as something worthwhile, respectable or valuable. Bigger is better, right?
This morning I read an article on twelve things to do or not do with your blog. One of those "don't do" points was – don't limit your word count. I quote: "Readers (and search engines) prefer to get meatier pieces (500 words or more) to make clicking through worth their time."
I had a moment of cognitive dissonance. When did five hundred words become a longer piece? (And precisely when did longer equate to "meatier"? A plateful of spareribs looks like more than a pork chop, but there's more meat per inch on the chop.) My engravings were often rejected for being too small. I've sometimes been informed, tacitly or explicitly, that only a novel is "real" writing. Now I find that five hundred words is long! When did my own work move from "that's nice, dear, come back when you've dome something larger" to "longer and meatier"? I wasn't looking when that happened
A long article or story isn't necessarily better or a short one worse, and the reverse is also true. The important features of a written piece are the what and the how, not the how-long. A good writer can suck you into a ten-page article, and a poor one can make a paragraph tedious. The point of the exercise is to learn how to convey what you need to and want to in the right number of words, the right length of article. Didn't we all learn in high school that you couldn't pad a three-hundred-word idea into a thousand-word essay without the teacher noticing? (And remember that in high school it was an incredible chore to write a thousand words!)
It won't change the way I write. I'll still write humour pieces in four-to-six-hundred-word chunks, newspaper pieces in two-hundred-to-twelve-hundred-word lengths and plug along at my novel at five-to-eight hundred words per day. For one thing, I've spent a long time practising in those lengths, and I'm good at them. I can write a circular piece in any of them without the joins showing. For another, I didn't change when my work was considered small – why would I change now just because it's considered long?
Does anyone really believe that length has anything to do with meatiness or merit? Pass the spareribs.

Spinner Box – 25 Recent Fidget Spinner Showdown
25 Fidget Spinners You Can Buy Now
If you disregard a pair of incredibly annoying kids in this video you will actually get the latest lineup of most popular and widely available Fidget Spinners you can buy now. There is 25 very popular models shown and if you listen carefully, the kids make some interesting observations, which could affect your buying decision. This is a very good comparison and a nice lineup – have a look:
First one out of the box is the three arm wooden fidget spinner with plastic caps, quite large but with a smooth action. Next one is a plastic six balls design, three on each side of the spinner. Rainbow metal spinner is next,certainly impressive in kids' opinion. Quick finger balance test checks for playability, and surely not all pass the test. Kids like next few metal spinners, nice feel, good balance and smooth action. [read more=Read.More less=Read.Less]
Batman fidget spinner had sharp edges – bad design or a poor finish workmanship, either way it's not a good idea. Five spoke wheel design received a nice reaction, it had no arms so no sharp edges here, brass on the outside plastic in the middle, smooth spin. Money spinner was a surprise – two UK pennies on each of three arms, unusual idea in copper color. Next one was a knock off of an original Peppyakka Fidget Spinner.
Komvox spinner looked interesting, combining metal balls, alloy three arms design and a blue body with red bearing caps, nice! There was a Magicfly spinner with six arms with colored rubber bands. Kids were impressed with a pair of really thick spinners, one of them could not be used on the table, the other had a flashy gold design with fake gems. Last of the more interesting ones had a knight shield design with weathered brass looks. Overall the kids favorite ones were the money spinner and the thick purple holed design, lowest score was given to cheap plastic and wooden spinners. [/read]

Configure comment bank
|Permissions required
to access this module:
|Access comment bank
|Configure comment bank
You can create a comment bank for teachers to use when entering grades. This can make comment entry faster and less prone to spelling errors. It is also possible to include mail merge fields to personalise the comments, and comments can be separated into different levels and subjects to make it easier for staff to find the most appropriate comment.
This page is accessed via:
PARS main menu > Grading > Configure > Configure comment bank
The comment bank page
The comment bank page will show you all of the comments currently configured. Comments are broken down into sections; year groups and subjects can have their own comments. Comments can also be given a level to indicate how good they are e.g. a level 1 comment might for be amazing work, while a level 5 comment is for work that needs improvement. Comments are also either performance based (looking back at what a pupil has done so far) or target based (looking forward to see what they need to do to improve).
Adding and editing comments
To add a comment, you should first choose the subject that it is going to apply to. If the comment is generic and does not apply to any particular subject, then set the Subject to (General). Once you have selected the subject, click the "Add" button from the top toolbar. You can also select a comment and click "Edit" to amend an existing comment.
You can enter free text into the comment window as well as clicking on the mail merge fields on the right of the window to insert them. At the top of the window you can choose which year group the comment applies to (if any) as well as the level of the comment, and whether it is performance based or target based. Once you are happy with your comment, click "Accept" at the bottom right to save it.
Deleting comments
To delete a comment, simply click to highlight it, then click the "Delete" from the top toolbar. This will only remove the comment from the comment bank, and will not affect any grading or comments that have been entered by teachers.
Importing comments
If you have a .csv file int he correct format, you can import comments into PARS. Your text file will need to have this structure:
T,L,Comment 1,YY T,L,Comment 2,YY T,L,Comment 3,YY T,L,Comment etc,YY
T = type (1 = Performance based, 2 = Target based) L = Level (1-9) Comment = Your text comment YY = Year group (leave blank for all)
So if you want three performance-based comments in your bank, your file may look like this:
1,1,This student has performed poorly. 1,5,This student has performed acceptably. 1,5,"This student has performed very, very well."
The last comment contains a comma so it needs to be enclosed in quotation marks.
Once you have a file in the correct format, click the "Import" button from the top toolbar. This will open the window below.
Click "Add files" to browse to the .csv file on your computer. Once you have added it, it will appear in the window with a "Start" and "Cancel" button. You can click the "Start" button to begin uploaded the file - this alone will not import the comments. You can continue adding files if you have multiple .csvs that you want to pull into PARS. Once done, click the "Import" button at the bottom right of the window to import the comments into PARS.

Significant change is required by individual professors as they adopt the use of online courses. McFadden, Marsh, and Price (1999) claimed that the major obstacle to the integration of online courses is that they significantly alter the role of the instructor. Online courses are a disruptive technology in the sense that they require different pedagogical methods, which may not yet be fully understood. In many ways, these methods are a break from the past and require professors to rethink their teaching practice. Conrad (2004) conducted interviews with university instructors who were engaged in online teaching for the first time. She identified four areas in which online courses changed instructors' roles: pedagogical, social, managerial, and technical. Conrad observed that professors were experiencing difficulty in adjusting to the role change as they transferred to online teaching.
Lehman (2006) investigated the role of emotion in creating a sense of presence online. Lehman developed a framework that covers seven key areas that professors and instructional designers should attend to when designing and teaching online courses: understanding the participants, knowing the environment, being a team player, developing formats and strategies, creating interactive activities, integrating support, and monitoring for quality. Ketterer and Marsh (2006) predicted that professors and institutions will have to be more flexible in terms of instructional models in light of new information and communication technologies. They claimed that traditional instructional models will be "increasingly problematic" with new technology. This will result in new models being developed to improve service, reach more students, satisfy adult learners, and comply with changing government policy.
Given the nature of the change which occurs when professors move to teaching online it is useful to examine this phenomena within the broader context of how change occurs in other environments. One of the most widely used theories related to change is Rogers (2003) theory of diffusion of innovations and it provides many concepts which are useful in this study of the adoption of asynchronous online courses. It was chosen as the conceptual framework for this study because it is a comprehensive theory drawing on research conducted over a wide variety of fields. The theory identifies the variables which influence the rate of adoption of an innovation and besides being used extensively in the field of education it has also been use by those doing research in many other fields. For example, it has been used to study the adoption of public health practices, the use of new agriculture methods, the introduction of innovations into cultures, such as the snowmobile into northern cultures, and the introduction of various tools from one culture to another. In business, the theory has been utilized to explain management practices, organizational behaviour, and the marketing of new products.

Then, a police report says, Fabian's PlayStation microphone recorded his rape of a 15-year-old girl - and that other gamer overheard the entire attack because the mic hadn't been turned off, according to ABC Action News. The 18-year-old was arrested on Wednesday and has been charged with two counts of lewd and lascivious battery on a victim between ages 12 and 15 years old.

By a clear margin, Africa was found to be the part of the world where women were most at risk of being killed by an intimate partner or family member, at around 3.1 victims per 100,000 female population. In Uganda, at least 30 women have been kidnapped and killed since 2017 , causing a mass outcry in the country. The United States Consul General, John Bray, has urged Nigerians to take a firm stand against impunity, stigma and the culture of silence which fuel violence against women and ...
On Monday, Apple briefly ceded its crown as world's most valuable publicly traded company to Microsoft Corp. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal , Trump said it was "highly unlikely" he would accept China's request to hold off on the increase, which is due to take effect on January 1.
The U.S. Army says three of its soldiers have been killed in a roadside bombing near the central Afghan city of Ghazni. Three other service members and one American contractor were wounded in the blast. The deaths are the latest in a growing toll on U.S. forces in Afghanistan following the death of an army Ranger during an operation against al Qaeda militants in Nimruz province on Saturday.
But the last meeting is likely to come under scrutiny and could interest Robert Mueller , the special prosecutor who is investigating alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian Federation. Manafort joined the Trump campaign as convention manager on March 29, 2016 and later became campaign chairman. He had been in the room for the Trump Tower meeting with Russians who touted they had incriminating information about Hillary Clinton; and he had allegedly offered private briefings ...
SRINAGAR, Indian-controlled Kashmir - Bullet-riddled body of a former special police officer (SPO) was found in restive Indian-controlled Kashmir, police said on Saturday. Also Saturday, the Islamic States group in statement posted on its Aamaq website claimed responsibility for the suicide attack on Friday inside an army base in eastern Khost province which killed at least 27 army soldiers.
In the first known public opening in front of the global media, one of the coffins was revealed to contain the well-preserved mummy of a woman. The restoration expert, the excavator, the excavation technician and the one who documented, all are Egyptians.
The fire was started after happy, expectant dad Dennis Dickey and his wife gathered some pals and headed to the Coronado National Forest, Arizona , to find out the gender of their unborn baby. Speaking in court, he told the judge: "It was a complete accident. It was probably one of the worst days of my life". He agreed to pay a total of $8.1 million in restitution, starting with an initial payment of $100,000.
The party's leader, Arlene Foster, flatly reiterated the DUP's opposition to the deal "as it now stands", telling May to "stop wasting time" and seek a better one, while also warning of the consequences if she did not. All eight of the party's MPs present in the Commons abstained on three votes, and even joined forces with Labour to support one amendment relating to child poverty.
The Sentinelese are thought to be the last pre-Neolithic tribe in the world and have been hostile to outside visitors, including killing fishermen who washed ashore and shooting arrows at a helicopter during a welfare check after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami .
Alan Dershowitz , a frequent defender of President Donald Trump , said special counsel Robert Mueller's report will be "devastating" for the president. Dershowitz responded: "No, no ...it's too much of a stretch". Trump reportedly submitted written answers to Mueller's questions last week, after months of back-and-forth between the president's legal team and the special counsel's office.
Six Ukrainians were injured. The Kremlin claimed it was an "aggressive act" and the ships had entered Russian territory - annexed Crimea. With relations still raw after Russia's 2014 annexation of Crimea from Ukraine and its backing for a pro-Moscow insurgency in eastern Ukraine, the crisis risked pushing the two countries into open conflict.
When the president first mentioned imposing martial law in response to Russia's naval aggression, some critics called it a "threat to democracy". In another sign of rising tensions, Russia's state-controlled RIA news agency reported on Sunday night that Ukrainian forces had started heavy shelling of residential areas in eastern Ukraine which is controlled by pro-Moscow separatists.
Trump also mentioned the case of Luis Rodrigo Perez , an illegal immigrant who was released past year by officials in Middlesex County, N.J. - which Trump described as a "sanctuary" municipality - and was recently arrested in connection with an alleged triple homicide in Missouri.
The president made promises to autoworkers about bringing back their high-paying jobs from places such as Mexico and South Korea. The company, which was incorporated in 1908, is performing reasonably well - earnings are up and the balance sheet is healthy.
But they could join with other Democratic insurgents to send the election into overtime when the floor would open to new nominees. The rebellion of 16, finally, threatens to paralyze House Democrats and deny them a unifying voice just as the presidential primaries factionalize the party.
Earlier this month the Trump administration reimposed the last set of sanctions on Iran that were lifted as part of the 2015 multi-nation nuclear deal aimed at curbing Iran's nuclear program. The Iranian Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, routinely calls Israel a "cancer" of the region that must be removed.

The journey of the so-called migrant caravan reached a head over the weekend as the USA closed, and then reopened, a busy border crossing between Tijuana and San Diego, and Mexico announced the deportation of a number of the migrants. Chief Patrol Agent Rodney Scott told CNN "numerous" people had made it across the border on Sunday, adding that most of those who were detained were men.
The EU officially endorsed the terms of the UK's withdrawal during a short meeting, bringing to an end negotiations which began in March 2017. "Those who think that by rejecting the deal that they would have a better deal will be disappointed the first seconds after the rejection", Juncker warned.
In return, Mueller promised to argue for leniency at sentencing. "He believes he has provided truthful information and does not agree with the government's characterization or that he has breached the agreement", the filing reported . He faces multiple years in prison. As part of his plea agreement, Manafort pledged to "cooperate fully, truthfully, completely, and forthrightly" with the government "in any and all matters" prosecutors deemed necessary.
Republican senators on Sunday condemned President Donald Trump's decision to stand by Saudi Arabia even after the Central Intelligence Agency determined that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was behind the murder of journalist Jamal Khoshoggi.
Nine bus loads of Mexican federal police took up positions around the Tijuana sports complex where more than 5000 migrants are camping out, with many waiting for the chance to apply for asylum in the United States. Tijuana Mayor Juan Manuel Gastelum said the throngs of migrants who have descended on his city is tantamount to a humanitarian crisis, and he declared an emergency.
Border crossings in Otay Mesa and Tecate remained open.

"I really like the direction we're heading, we've got a great nucleus — especially defensively, and I don't think our offensive line is nearly in the dire straits everybody thinks they are."Of course, only time will tell, but Arians is spreading optimism about the Cardinals new-look roster moving forward.

Sleeping cows on compost bedded pack, movie by Jeffrey Bewley.
He wants to do research on sleep behaviour:
"The compost barn sleeping has made us think of sleep behavior as another cow signal that could have a positive impact on immunity. So, we are working on a monitor for cow sleep measurement. Our concept is that while lying time tells us about rest quantity it doesn't necessarily address rest quality."
What do you think of this idea?
We for one are really interested! We'll keep you posted!

This week at The Card Concept, the theme is Monochromatic Green. The photo inspiration looked like a quilt so using lots of 1″ green squares from my stash of bits and pieces, I created a mosaic background. I added a bold gold sentiment following the lead from the Lyle's Syrup can. BTW… if you haven't tried Lyles… its yum! I grew up on Lyles and peanut butter sandwiches. Great memories!

I have been absent from writing on my blog because I have been steeped in Mail Jail for E-Week's sales.
Now, after a month in Mail Jail, I have reached my last dozen orders and this morning I put out an official call for mistakes in the orders I have filled. Time to start mopping up and soon time to move on.
Next come the kits for my final travel-teaching job at Callaway in January and for my job with Pat Correz in the spring.
And after that? The beginning of my small dream for Queendom Website.
Actually my small dream begins this weekend for I am driving on Saturday morning up to my framer (the noteworthy New Creations Framing in Pasadena) to pick up a sampler called 'Iron Wrought in Silk'. Iron Wrought in Silk marks the beginning of the dream, let's say Part 1, so needless to say I am excited to see how the sampler looks and to begin work on a bit of magic for it.
So when will my followers catch a glimpse of Iron Wrought in Silk?
On Christmas morning, of course. A fitting time for the start of a dream, don't you think?
And when will the dream begin to happen? Well, not tomorrow, that's for sure. I have two more large samplers to stitch first and a long road of computer lessons to travel, so it will be a while. A while filled with a bunch of happy stitching and studying hours.
I am hoping the people who are in my general classroom at Shining Needle Society will keep me company as I stitch stitch stitch toward making a little dream a reality.

This remarkable and wide-ranging book is an inventory of symbols and the symbolic imagination. The editors and their fifteen contributors are drawn from a variety of scholarly backgrounds—including anthropology, ethnology, psychotherapy and art history.
This diversity of approach is responsible for the book's unique character, a reflection of the multiplicity of symbols and signs and the phenomenal range of possible interpretations they offer.
This book draws together folklore, literary and artistic sources, and focuses on the symbolic dimension of every colour, number, sound, gesture, expression or character trait that has benefitted from symbolic interpretation. The conscious and unconscious minds are explored, desire and dreams are treated alongside the known and the chronicled.
Extraordinary in its range and eclecticism, this dictionary was originally published in French as the Dictionnaire des Symboles, and it is regarded as the standard work on the subject.

I've never been much of a shopper. I became a single mother around the time I started to earn my first regular salary, and never had any margin for mindless shopping. I needed to plan in order to make room for necessary shopping like clothes for my child. And life has been good anyway. I enjoy life with less things and more living – this blog is about my search for a simpler life.
So I've never really understood "retail therapy". Until now. This year, during my recovery from my latest (hopefully last) burnout, I've been shopping for fun like never before. An interesting experience!
It all started very innocently when I was googling for a good price on something I needed to buy, and stumbled upon a site that sells things directly from China. The delivery was slow, but I've never had a problem waiting for things. It was the very same thing that was sold in stores in Sweden, but a fraction of the price. To good to be true? I decided to give it a try (frugality is another of my traits, after all). And some 6 weeks later the parcel arrived, and it was exactly as promised. So next time I needed something, I checked at this shop first. So far so good.
I like writing, and at the time I had just jumped on the Bullet Journal train. If you don't know what Bullet Journal is, google it – there are tons of blogs, Instagram and Pinterest accounts dedicated to it. And since I was on sick-leave from work I read a lot of them. Maybe because I was in that fatigued state, I read them very literally. If someone claimed that they loved washi tape, I suddenly also needed washi tape. And it cost nearly nothing at that Chinese site! Nor did the post-its, pens and whatever… So I placed the orders.
And then I started to browse the shop instead of looking for specific items. The creativity of people is amazing! There were things that were solutions to problems I hadn't even realised I had before. Little things, like a special thing for cleaning the drain in the bathroom from hairs. So clever! And cheap! And look, they have smart little things for the camera! And, oh, the stationary! And look at those clever little things for the kitchen! And… that's when my journey down the rabbit hole began.
Six to eight weeks later, the stuff I had ordered started arriving. Small parcels, more and more frequently. By now I was starting to feel better, and became more and more aware of how much time I had been spending browsing the marketplace. And also how much money those small orders actually add up to over time…
A new experience for me, but one I realise I share with a lot of people. The kick of finding the thing, and the smug feeling of finding it at a bargain… It's addictive.
But unlike a lot of people in this consumer society I know that there are other ways to get the kick, that good feeling. It's actually an even greater kick to create a solution to your problem yourself. Whether it is to find something laying around to use to clear the drain from those hairs, or finding your own way to Bullet Journal (which actually is what that is about to begin with). Or the joy of using the camera, experimenting with it to take interesting pictures instead of using the time to shop for accessories…
This weekend, Black Friday to Cyber Monday, marked the start of this year's shopping crescendo. I've decided to let it be the end of mine.
Starting today, I'm doing a Buy No Things period. For how long I'm not sure, but definitely for all of December. I don't need any more stuff (but I'll be getting more anyway, since many of my orders still are in transport).
I need to reclaim my time. Time to read, time to write. Time to enjoy and experience this the darkest month of the year. To feel the contrast of the cold and dark outside, and the warmth and light inside. To connect with the people I love. To simply live.

The following is taken from "Lives of the Signers to the Declaration of Independence," by Reverend Charles A. Goodrich.
THE history of the world probably furnishes not another instance in which there was a nobler exhibition of true patriotism, than is presented in the history of the American revo- lution. It was certain at its commencement, in respect to numerous individuals, whose talents, wisdom and enterprise were necessary to its success, that they could derive but little, if any, individual advantage. Nay, it was certain, that in- stead of gain they would be subjected to great loss and suffer- ing. The comforts of their families would be abridged ; their property destroyed ; their farms desolated ; their houses plun- dered or consumed ; their sons might fall in the field of battle ; and, should the struggle be vain, an ignominious death would be their portion. But, then, the contest respected rights which God had given them ; it respected liberty, that dearest and noblest privilege of man ; it respected the happiness of gene- rations yet to succeed each other on this spacious continent to the end of time. Such considerations influenced the pa- triots of the revolution. They thought comparatively little of themselves ; their views were fixed on the happiness of others ; on the future glory of their country ; on universal liberty!

Hi, guys —
I am a Third Order Carmelite and I love the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary. I find the readings very beautiful and I feel I get more out of doing it than the Divine Office because of the Carmelite spirituality being so close to the Blessed Virgin.
Nevertheless, I understand I am supposed to do the Divine Office which at times I have trouble doing because I don't always have the proper guide with me for the readings.
In many ways I feel the Carmelites are drifting a bit from their Marian roots these days . . . at least in my particular group. I had one of our leaders explain that perhaps not all Carmelites had consecrated themselves to Mary and I could not believe she misunderstood what wearing a Scapular really meant. This is another reason I want to do the Little Office . . . almost as a way of making amends for falling away from the Marian devotion which should be so strong in Carmel.
Any comments will help. If I asked the Carmelite priest I know invariably he will tell me to do the Divine Office and I will feel frustrated.
God Bless,
A long-time friend, Mary replied:
Hi Mike —
The devotion to the Little Office of Our Lady is one that I share as well. Long before I ever recited the Divine Office, I said the Little Office for years. For anyone with deep devotion to Our Lady, it is a very sweet daily prayer, easier to say and far less changeable than the Divine Office, which does require some expertise as well as a current Ordo Missal.
It is, nevertheless, a private devotion and is not a part of the Divine Office, although medieval European clergy often prayed it in addition to the Office, especially on Saturdays. It was also often used by Third Order members and lay brothers as it is easily memorized.
I have attached a link here for a short history of the devotion:
All this being said, if someone is bound to say the Divine Office by promise, then they have to fulfill the duty. Perhaps a conversation with their spiritual director, reflecting on the difficulties in saying the entire Divine Office could resolve this. The Divine Office is the official prayer of the Church, and by participating in it, you join in the prayer of the Bride of Christ, rising up from the whole world.
Generally speaking, the official liturgy of the Church (the Mass, the Divine Office, and the Sacramental rites) always take precedence over any private devotion like the Little Office, the Rosary, novenas, etc.
Hope this helps.
