Enable Proof Sharing on a Proof
When Proof Sharing is enabled in your account, reviewers can @mention and collaborate with other account members who were not initially invited to the review.
When necessary, reviewers can also share the proof with additional account members by sending a custom, private message that does not appear in the collaboration panel. If a reviewer believes someone's opinion is required, they can add them as an essential reviewer on the proof route.
Proof members will receive a notification any time a new essential reviewer is added to the proof route so they can continue to manage the proof's progress.
If you add a new reviewer with an @mention, they will only be invited as a collaborator on the review. They will be able to comment and annotate, but cannot leave an approval status or delay the progression of the proof route.
This feature can be enabled on a proof-by-proof basis by clicking Proof Options within a proof and selecting the green toggle to Allow Proof Sharing. When disabled, the toggle will appear grey. You can update these preferences at any time.
This feature can be enabled or disabled on the proof at any time, including after the proof has been sent for review.
For Admins
You can enable Proof Sharing in your account via the General option in the Account Settings sub-navigation menu. Click the toggle next to the Proof Sharing option to enable this feature.
Once enabled, you will have several additional options to further customize Proof Sharing within your account:
Enable by Default on All New Proofs: This setting ensures proof sharing will be automatically enabled for all new proofs created in the account.
Account Members are Visible to Stakeholders: With this setting, admins can choose to prevent their stakeholders from seeing other members in the account within the "Everyone Else" list. This ensures users will not see the names of anyone who has not already been invited when @mentioning or sharing the proof.
You can update these preferences at any time.

#MyFreedomDay 2019: Students teach the world about modern slavery
Awareness is the first step to action
A21, an anti-trafficking organisation, joined students at the Los Angeles School of Global Studies, to launch their Human Trafficking Awareness Program.
The program, which will be rolled out across the world in eight different languages, aims to educate individuals on human trafficking: teaching them to spot the signs of slavery and equipping them with tools to take action -- such as the hotlines to call.
Katy, from A21, tells CNN that she hopes the program will "empower us to be a part of the solution to see human trafficking eradicated in this generation."
High school student Oswald says that from today he's learned how modern slavery isn't just an issue happening overseas. "It's happening right here in LA...at every corner of the planet," he says.
"It's so important to get educated about that, and inform our community about that," he adds, calling for tangible action against trafficking.
Musical activism
Today we've not only learned about modern slavery, but also how powerful music can be to raise awareness of it.
Afro Roots musician Rocky Dawuni visited a school in Accra, Ghana, earlier today and with a chorus of children sang his new single -- all about freedom of expression.
Earlier this month, the CNN Freedom Project revealed how 20,000 child slaves risk their lives on Ghana's Lake Volta.
"Think about freedom"
"Our goal is just to make people think about freedom," says a sixth former from the Atlanta International School (AIS), where they held a round table to discuss the lessons learned from #MyFreedomDay.
Another student says she was shocked to discover the many different forms of slavery, from sex trafficking to forced labor.
Students from AIS prepared presentations to educate their peers on different types of slavery. These two shared what they know about child marriage.
All in all, it was a very impressive effort from AIS for #MyFreedomDay. Here are some individual messages from students on what makes them feel free.
Products of slavery
Students at the American Institute of Monterrey, Mexico learned how slavery plays a role in everyday products, such as chocolate or coffee.
They also made a collage of post-its with messages on them of what makes them feel free. "Freedom is to think whatever you like, and say whatever you feel," reads one.
From the CNN Freedom Project: How Project Runway is helping trafficking victims
Project Runway and Southwest Airlines are teaming up with non-profit Rethreaded to empower human trafficking survivors, and give their lives new purpose.
Modern slavery: learning how to spot it and stop it
Today CNN's Isa Soares visited students at Yeading School, London.
Together they discussed modern day slavery: how to spot it, and most importantly how to stop it.
Have a listen in to CNN's coverage from earlier today, when the school pupils sing and dance a special song for #MyFreedomDay.
The Force is with #MyFreedomDay
Snakes and slavery: two things Indiana Jones hates.
Legendary actor Harrison Ford dropped in to tell CNN what makes him feel free. There's 40 million slaves in the world today, and there's a long road ahead to turning that number to zero. But as Han Solo might say: "Never tell me the odds!"
Hands up for freedom
In a powerful message for #MyFreedomDay, children from the Atlanta International School raised their arms for 40 seconds to raise awareness of the 40 million people trapped in modern slavery today.
CNN's Cyril Vanier, reporting from the ground, says it was amazing how the children -- some as young as five -- understood the message and felt grateful for their own freedom today.
Freedom to learn
For the diligent students of Oak Lawn-Hometown Middle School in Illinois, US, the right to an education comes top of the list of what makes them feel free.
"I'm super grateful to have the freedom of an education, so that I could get a job, go to college and become successful," says Dylan.

Annual Golf Tournament
Dear Golf Tournament Participants,
The Board of Directors and the entire Pro-Vision organization wants to thank you for your past support of the annual golf tournament. The tournament has become an institutional event for us, and an important fundraiser that is eagerly anticipated by all involvement.
Exciting changes are on the horizon for Pro-Vision! We have been immersed in a Capital Campaign to raise funds for extensive campus expansion, and therefore we chose to forego the 2018 tournament. We are happy to announce that the tournament will return in 2019 and will be held at Westwood Golf Club on Monday, November 11th. Information regarding sponsorship opportunities and registration will be forwarded to you as soon as it is available.
This is a pivotal time for Pro-Vision and its students, as construction has begun and much progress is being made. We encourage you to visit our website www.provisionincgolf.com for updates on this exciting venture. Thank you for supporting Pro-Vision and we'll see you on the links in November 2019.
With best regards,

33When they came to the place that is called The Skull, they crucified Jesus there with the criminals, one on his right and one on his left. 34Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing." And they cast lots to divide his clothing.35And the people stood by, watching; but the leaders scoffed at him, saying, "He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Messiah of God, his chosen one!" 36The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him sour wine, 37and saying, "If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!" 38There was also an inscription over him, "This is the King of the Jews." 39One of the criminals who were hanged there kept deriding him and saying, "Are you not the Messiah? Save yourself and us!" 40But the other rebuked him, saying, "Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41And we indeed have been condemned justly, for we are getting what we deserve for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong." 42Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom." 43He replied, "Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise."
It is the last Sunday of the Christian year today – a Sunday that since 1925 has been celebrated as the feast of "Christ the King" – so proclaimed by Pope Pius IX.
It seems like an odd time for the year to be ending and it's not obvious why this should be an especially appropriate time to celebrate the kingship of Christ. Most strange of all, perhaps, is when we come to the readings set down for this special day we find ourselves back at the crucifixion! That's the Easter story, isn't it, and surely we're at the opposite end of the Christmas/Easter spectrum!
What has the kingship of Christ got to do with this time of year and what has the crucifixion of Christ got to do with the kingship of Christ?
Of course I know that we long-term Christians intuitively associate the power of Jesus with the death of Jesus but it's really an absurd association when you reflect on it!
I think it epitomises the way culture and environment shape rationality – the way in which the cross of Jesus has become a symbol of all things bright and beautiful rather than an instrument of suffering and death, which is what it is.
The comedian, Lennie Bruce, used to say that if Jesus had been born in his time we would have all been wearing little electric chairs around our necks, or perhaps little guillotines if He'd been born a century or two earlier. Perhaps if it were today's time it would be a deadly needle that we'd all be wearing. Either way, it does seem absurd, on reflection, to so sanitize this deadly weapon that it becomes an ornament!
It's our culture, of course. It's the way we were brought up. If we're raised in violent and abusive households then perhaps we aren't too shocked when we saw women beaten up and children brutalised. As it is we've grown up in a culture where the cross is a form of eye-candy and no longer scandalises us.
One of the big themes pushed by church growth experts is the idea that we should make our worship services appear less odd to the outsider. Get rid of the stiff wooden pews and the stained glass that is the legacy of an age long passed. Get rid of the strange robes and archaic hymns that can only serve to alienate 21st century Australians. Let's all dress as we would normally dress and meet in an environment that feels more familial. Bring down the barriers and turn the church into a user-friendly environment!
If you ask me, the really alien thing about the church is not its format but the message, and most especially this fundamental obsession that we have with the death and suffering of Jesus! How is that supposed to attract anyone?
The German philosopher, Frederick Nietzsche, saw this quite clearly, I think. He was a great opponent of the church and saw Christianity as a religion of weakness that humanity had outgrown.
"When we hear the ancient bells growling on a Sunday morning we ask ourselves: Is it really possible! … the cross as a symbol in a time that no longer knows the function and ignominy of the cross – how ghoulishly all this touches us, as if from the tomb of a primeval past!" ("Human, all too Human")
"Christianity was from the beginning, essentially and fundamentally, life's nausea and disgust with life, merely concealed behind, masked by, dressed up as, faith in 'another' or 'better' life." ("The Birth of Tragedy")
Nietzsche saw the Bible's emphasis on the suffering of Christ as a tragic embrace of weakness that leads to Christianity becoming the "religion of pity".
"Pity stands opposed to the tonic emotions which heighten our vitality: it has a depressing effect. We are deprived of strength when we feel pity. That loss of strength which suffering as such inflicts on life is still further increased and multiplied by pity. Pity makes suffering contagious." (from "The Antichrist")
While those who have labelled Nietzsche a Nazi are incorrect, I believe, it's obvious enough why the Third Reich had Nietzsche's works on their list of acceptable reading. Even so, the offensive nature of much of Nietzsche's writings should not blind us to his insight that the Christian focus on suffering, weakness and pity is not something that makes a lot of sense in our world!
Outside of the hallowed walls of these strange buildings we call churches, weakness, suffering and pity are not hallowed values. They are despised!
We live in a get-ahead world where money and power are hallowed, not suffering and weakness! We live in a world where success is measured by size and strength and, most importantly, by the volume of your bank account!
As I say, we are children of our environment and we have been brought up in a culture that sanitizes the cross and allows us to sit comfortably with our children while we have the details of Jesus' execution read to us when perhaps we should be covering their ears!
You heard the story! They nailed Jesus and His two companions to a cross. They hurled insults at Him, divided up His clothing, and, yes, there is the word of hope that Jesus gives to one of those dying with him, but it's not a hope that he is going to avoid a torturous death! Would that be acceptable bedtime reading in any other culture?
I imagine wandering into a church as a Muslim and hearing the Christian Gospel proclaimed for the first time – that Christ suffered and died so that we might be forgiven. I think I would find this rather confronting to say the least!
Is it any wonder that the Qur'an teaches that Jesus didn't really die on the cross? The whole idea of the cross is offensive on any number of levels!
St Paul saw this quite clearly: "we proclaim Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Greeks" (1 Corinthians 1:23). Paul recognised, in other words, that the cross was both morally obscene and intellectually repugnant and yet, Paul says, it is the essence of his message and the very heart of the Christian faith!
And that is true – that the cross is at the centre of the Christian faith.
The cross of Christ is the centre of the Christian faith and it is the central story of the New Testament. If you read through the Gospel of Mark, for instance, it reads (as many scholars have said) like a crucifixion narrative with an extended introduction.
The death of Jesus is the epicenter of the Christian message and hence it is at the centre of our worship every time we gather as a Christian community – proclaimed sacramentally in the Eucharist every time we meet – the body broken, the blood poured out. And hence it is remembered again, even more specifically, as we conclude this Christian year and proclaim the rule of Christ in our world – our focus once more is drawn to the cross.
Why? Because this is where we find God! Contrary to all expectation, and in complete contradiction to all the wisdom that this world has to offer, this is where we find God – in the humiliation and suffering of the cross.
"Because men do not know the cross and hate it, they necessarily love the opposite, namely, wisdom, glory, power, and so on…."
So says Martin Luther in his 'Heidelberg Disputation' (22, 20) and goes on to say "Now it is not sufficient for anyone, and it does him no good to recognize God in his glory and majesty, unless he recognises him in the humility and shame of the cross."
This is where we find God – in humiliation and pain. We thought that the way to reach the fullness of life was to fight your way to the top but it is the uniquely Christian revelation that God is actually to be found at the other end of life – at the very bottom!
This is what St Paul discovered on the road to Damascus. After a life of moral scrupulosity and spiritual striving Paul came to the crashing realisation that God had not actually been waiting for him at the end of the religious rainbow! God instead met him on the ground after he fell off his high horse (literally as well as figuratively).
And this is what we discover too – that it's not when we 'make it' in life, either professionally or spiritually, that we finally get to meet God. Instead God comes to us in our weakness as one who is familiar with human weakness. God comes to us in our suffering as one who has known the depths of human suffering. It's when we reach the cross that we discover Christ crucified – "the power of God and the wisdom of God" (1 Corinthians 1:24)
Christ the King Sunday was, as I mentioned, the brainchild of Pope Pius IX in 1925.
1925 isn't really that long ago though few of us, I think, would be able to cast our minds back that far to remember exactly what the world looked like then.
In truth, the world was in a volatile state back in 1925. Mussolini had just celebrated his third year in office in Italy, a young rabble-rouser by the name of Adolph Hitler had been out of gaol for a year and his Nazi party was growing in popularity, and the world was in the grip of the 'Great Depression'.
They were volatile times, though not unlike our own. And while we aren't in a position to dialogue with Pius IX as to why he felt that this was the time to proclaim the kingship of Christ, I'm guessing that it was more than a simple desire to remind everybody who was in charge.
I think that Pius may have had some insight into where the world was heading – that humanity was at a crossroads and was about to choose a path that would lead downwards into worldwide degradation and suffering.
Pius' proclamation of the cross at that volatile time was not simply a reminder that God was in His Heaven and hence that all would be right with the world but rather an assurance that even on that downward path we would again find Christ!
I am not sure where our world is heading right now, though I do truly believe that if the United States had attacked Syria a couple of months ago, as their President had intended to, we might even now be in the early stages of a third world war!
Thanks be to God, that did not happen, and yet things are still very volatile, and there is every possibility, I believe, that human history is about to take another very decisive downward turn.
Indeed, if not through war it may simply be through our lack of concern for the environment! None of us knows precisely where the phenomenon of global warming is going to take us. Perhaps it will not be our brutality towards one another this time but our violence towards the environment that will commit humanity to the downward path!
Either way, whether calamity comes to us by war or murder or fire or flood or famine, the truth that we are here to proclaim today is the same – that there is no pain so deep, no place so dark, and no suffering so terrible that Christ cannot be found in the midst of it all!
"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 8:38)
This is the word of hope that comes to us through the cross of Christ, this is the Christian Gospel, and this is the very special truth that we celebrate once again on this very special day, the feast of 'Christ the King' – that we can never sink so low that we will not find Christ alongside us.
Hallelujah! Christ is King!

But when Eisenberg calculated the annual and monthly figures for rainfall taken from the US Weather Service's 20,000 weather stations, and compared it with nearly 430,000fatal crashes between 1975 and 2000, he found that the number of deaths fell in rainy months. It was only when he looked at the daily figures that he found the expected result- a 1.2 per cent increase in the rate of fatal crashes with every centimetre of rain that falls. Eisenberg says the longer the dry period before it rains, the higher the number of deaths (see Graph), so a dry month with a downpour can have more deaths than one with incessant drizzle. He found that the combination of a shower after a 21-day drought increased the number of fatalities nearly threefold. "I think my study is the first with large-scale data to show the magnitude of the effect," he says. The work will appear in Accident Prevention & Analysis.
Eisenberg suggests that during a drought, engine oil and grease build up so that when it rains the oil and water mix turns the road into a skidpan. And people are also not as prepared for these conditions after a long dry spell, he says. Adrian Runacres, a forensic accident meteorologist at the UK's Transport Research Laboratory at Crowthorne, says that tests in the UK have confirmed that the build-up of dust and rubber from tyres can forma greasy film when it rains. "Also the crud that builds up blocks drainage paths between the chips on the surface of the road," he says. But Runacres says that the most important factor is probably motorists driving in heavy rain as though it were still dry, and tailgating other vehicles. Eisenberg says that highway authorities should warn motorists of the added danger when it rains after a drought.

Technologies that not long ago were science fiction are now mainstream—and to many people, the possibilities look mighty fine. But jumping into that future isn't easy.
We offer this piece of advice: Before getting sucked into the big data vortex, take stock of what your company could benefit from most. To do that, let's deconstruct some of the buzz words and get clear about what's what.
Before tech-ing up, break it down.
Artificial intelligence. Machine learning. Automated insights. Advanced analytics. Heard of them? Sure. But can you tell them apart? (Click to Tweet)
Some of these terms have been used interchangeably, eclipsing the new technology with confusion. So, whether you're already strapping on your flight suit, or are just beginning to explore, let's clear things up. Because in technology, as in space exploration, it's smart to first see clearly what you're getting into.
Definitions simplified
Artificial Intelligence or AI
Artificial means that it's done by machines or devices, not a human. Humans have what's called natural intelligence, meaning that organic material collects and interacts with data. Artificial means that a non-organic thing, such as a computer, has collected and interacted with the data. Intelligence means acquiring and applying knowledge, whether by an organic being or an inorganic machine/computer.
Here's the simplest explanation of AI ever. Artificial Intelligence is a machine or computer's ability to acquire and apply knowledge.
That's knowledge. Not data. Here's another distinction: Data is numbers, facts, lists, and statistics. Knowledge is data in context, and it's gained through analysis and experience. Knowledge is data made usable. That's what AI does; it makes data usable and applies it, sometimes in a new context.
Acquiring knowledge and using it
AI is a broad term, a discipline in science that covers many topics. All of the areas in AI involve acquiring knowledge and applying it. For example:
Natural language understanding. Tools like Dragon Dictate, Siri, and Cortana recognize speech, turning audio sounds into information they can acquire and use. Siri or Cortana, for example, can learn to adapt to a regional accent or a mispronounced word in order to follow simple instructions, like playing music, turning on lights, or searching for something on a computer.
Digital vision. Tools like DeepFace and self-driving cars acquire information from digital images and use it. For example, Facebook's DeepFace recognizes which part of a photo is a human face and identifies it based on a database of faces.
Machine learning (ML). ML is when a computer or device acquires and interprets knowledge from a large amount of data and uses it in a way that improves its processes, with or without the aid of humans. ML uses the information it acquires to get faster, smarter, and more accurate over time, based on statistics and other mathematical applications. For example, if you show the ML computer that 2 + 2 = 4, it can figure out that 1 +3 = 4 and that 2 + 3 = 5. You feed it stock market history, weather, political situations, and business data, and it comes up with intelligent math-based trade suggestions.
There are other areas of AI and applications that bring several of these areas together. There are knowledge bots (like Siri and Cortana), chat bots (simple versions, usually used in customer service chats), and inference engines that apply logical rules to data, connect the dots, and deduce new information.
The sophistication of the AI of a computer or device depends on how well it can logically apply information in new ways, with increasing effectivity, and even, occasionally, independently. That means that the future of this technology is as wide open as imagination can take us.
Where does advanced analytics fit into all of this?
Actually, all of this—and more—fits into advanced analytics. Traditional analytics or business intelligence is a review of historical data; it's a reporting of past results. Advanced analytics uses AI and other techniques, including statistical and predictive forecasting, to look ahead. Put simply, traditional analytics ask, "What happened?" and advanced analytics ask, "What's possible?"
How does all this affect planning?
When it comes to business planning abilities, AI and ML are about to deliver the sonic boom of mic drops. Instead of basing this year's forecast solely on last year's sales, you could have a plan that takes projections for significant events into account—social or local events like festivals or sports championships, business events like mergers and other changes along the supply chain, regulatory changes, weather predictions and effects, seasonal demand, fads and trends, staffing issues—the possibilities are endless. The tool acquires the necessary information and applies it all by itself, leaving you free to review the results and come up with an intelligent response that keeps your company ahead of the competition.
Instead of plodding away trying to make a plan that foresees everything (or doesn't), you could choose the most desirable result from an array of options prepared for you, using criteria that you select. But it's more than that—you won't spend your time compiling and verifying data and trying to keep up with what's happening. You and your team can get back to the work you really want to do. The status of the business is constantly updated and accurate, and that information is available on your nearest screen.
All clear?
When it comes to making the most of your data, there's a lot to wrap your head around. Before you launch any new technology, whether you're developing a time machine, a space program, or a better planning tool, you need to do some adequate preparation and study. You've just taken the first small step to a high return on your technology investment and a streamlined flight into the future, with no possibility of flaming out on re-entry.
To explore more about AI, and in particular, Anaplan's breakthroughs in marrying machine learning and planning—and whether your business is ready to benefit—read this article.


text: Greg Rodriguez - September 23, 2010 AyA 12-Gauge No. 2 Sidelock By Greg Rodriguez Though the Spanish double gun firm of AyA (Aguirre & Aranzabal) has long been popular among the shotgunning cognoscenti, I never laid my hands on one until my wife and I toured the factory on a recent holiday in Spain.There, I learned that AyA has been building guns in Spain's Basque Country since 1915. But it wasn't until the company started making high-quality copies of a sidelock Holland & Holland and a boxlock Westley Richards for the London gun trade that American and European shooters recognized the quality for which the small firm is known today. AyA still employs the classic, long workbench for which Spanish gunmakers are known, and each gun is still passed down the bench and largely hand-made by talented gunsmiths. But modern CNC machines that whittle solid chunks of bar stock down to actions before they are placed on the bench speed the process along. Though the manufacturing process is more modern, the quality of these fine shotguns is decidedly old-world. I was sufficiently impressed with AyA's mix of old-world craftsmanship and modern manufacturing methods that I ordered one of the sidelock No. 1s in 28 gauge while at the factory. Since I knew it would be a while before I would receive my new quail gun, I asked AyA USA to send me one of the No.2s for testing and evaluating.The No. 2 Up Close AyA's No. 2 differs from the No. 1 that I ordered for my personal use in that its wood is not quite as fancy, and the engraving is done by machine rather than by hand. Both share AyA's sidelock action, which is a copy of a classic Holland & Holland design. AyA's version is CNC-machined from a solid block of steel with double underlugs and hand-detachable sidelocks. The sideplates are removed by turning an engraved lever on the left side. Seven polished pins are clearly visible on each side of the color-casehardened action. The lovely scroll engraving is well-done. Disk-set strikers allow easy replacement of the striker or striker spring, a feature common on English best-quality guns but rarely seen on guns that cost less than a new truck. Another nice touch is a replaceable hinge pin, which allows a heavily used gun to be made tight again by a qualified gunsmith. Intercepting safety sears prevent the tumblers from moving forward and firing the gun in the event of a fall or a hard knock. Forged, chopper-lump barrels are another AyA standard feature usually found on much more expensive guns. Since they are made from a single forging, chopper-lump barrels are expensive to make, but they are far more solid when done right. The No. 2's 28-inch barrels are topped with a concave rib. The 12-gauge chambers are 2¾ inches, and the fixed chokes are Improved Cylinder and Modified, which are ideal for a game gun. The barrels wear a deep, rich black finish.My test gun has double triggers, with the front being an articulated design.In keeping with its classic lines, the oil-finished stock has a straight, English-style grip. The wood is dark and nicely figured. While the hand-checkering on the butt doesn't soften the No. 2's recoil, it looks great. The splinter fore-end and grip are also hand-checkered. The work is nicely done with crisp, sharp points and straight lines.Bela Karolyi shoots skeet with the AyA No. 2. Bela liked the gun so much he bought it when the author completed his testing. Though machines speed the process, AyA's guns are still largely hand-built.The test gun was well-made and beautifully finished. The action locked up nice and tight, and the triggers were crisp. The front trigger broke at 4 pounds, 2 ounces, and the back broke at 5 pounds, 6 ounces.Afield With The No. 2I was quite taken with the pretty, new AyA, and I was anxious to shoot it in the field, so soon after receiving it, I took it on a pheasant hunt with my friend Bela Karolyi, the renowned gymnastics coach, at the Rio Brazos Hunting Preserve in Simonton, Texas.I started out with some pre-hunt clay targets to get used to the No. 2, and I quickly found that I hit pretty well with it despite the fact that the stock was too long for me. It didn't take long before I'd broken enough clay targets that I felt comfortable enough to head out on the heels of our guide's well-trained pointers in search of some of the hard-flushing pheasant, quail, and chukar for which the Rio Brazos is known.The AyA No. 2 sidelock is easy to disassemble. A simple lever makes removing and replacing the sideplates a snap.We hadn't walked far when the dogs locked up hard on a grassy covert. We approached cautiously, but the sound of the covey rise still gave me a start. I recovered in time to find a bird fleeing right to left. My finger found the front trigger as the gun found my shoulder, and the bird tumbled hard. A flash of movement to my right turned into a flushing bobwhite that I crumpled with the left barrel. A crisp double was all it took--I was falling fast for the new Spanish beauty.I continued to shoot the No. 2 well the rest of the day. I usually hunt quail with a 28 gauge, so I had to restrain myself a bit to allow the birds to get far enough away that I didn't destroy them with the big 12, but I had no trouble hitting them farther out. I even dropped a few pheasants and chukar out to 45 or 50 yards. Some of the credit must go to the chokes, which seemed a bit tight for I/C and Mod., but the gun's great lines and trim stock made it point and swing quite well in my hands.A Best-Quality DoubleMy experience with fine English guns is somewhat limited, but I've seen and shot enough of them to know that the AyA is every bit as good as the best English smoothbores in many ways.The No. 2 came up to my shoulder easily and swung as nicely as any best-quality double. Mechanically, it was also very solid. Its triggers were crisp and clean, its Southgate-style ejectors sentempty hulls sailing, and its action opened smoothly and locked up tightly.Aesthetically, the No. 2 was simply beautiful. The barrel blacking was as fine as any I've seen, and the engraving, though not done by hand, was nicely executed. The wood was gorgeous, with an expertly applied oil finish, and the wood-to-metal fit was flawless. An examination with a magnifying glass might reveal minute flaws you wouldn't find on a Holland & Holland, but the test gun looked perfect to me.If you've got time to look for minute flaws with a magnifying glass, go ahead. But if the AyA's I've seen are any indication, you'll be hard-pressed to find any. As for me, well, I'd rather spend that time and the money I saved by buying an AyA instead of an English gun on a whole bunch of really good hunts.The No. 2's removable disk-set strikers are visible in the receiver face. This is a feature normally reserved for much more expensive shotguns. GET THE NEWSLETTER Join the List and Never Miss a Thing. Sign Me Up

Context6I planted, Apollos watered, but God was causing the growth. 7So then neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but God who causes the growth. 8Now he who plants and he who waters are one; but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor. 9For we are Gods fellow workers; you are Gods field, Gods building.
10According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it. 11For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12Now if any man builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13each mans work will become evident; for the day will show it because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each mans work. 14If any mans work which he has built on it remains, he will receive a reward. 15If any mans work is burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
16Do you not know that you are a temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? 17If any man destroys the temple of God, God will destroy him, for the temple of God is holy, and that is what you are.
18Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become foolish, so that he may become wise. 19For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written, He is THE ONE WHO CATCHES THE WISE IN THEIR CRAFTINESS; 20and again, THE LORD KNOWS THE REASONINGS of the wise, THAT THEY ARE USELESS. 21So then let no one boast in men. For all things belong to you, 22whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come; all things belong to you, 23and you belong to Christ; and Christ belongs to God.

I awake, sharp, inside this war-torn room,
Though I can't recall how I arrived here.
Barely having strength in these thin legs,
I begin to inspect the empty surrounding.
The pin-drop creaks pierce my ears;
A Spirit of Fear begins to overwhelm me.
I fling open the door, praying for comfort.
But, only a barren hallway greets my eyes.
My cautious steps soon turn to sprints.
I'm crashing through, seeking an escape.
A thick cloud guard grips my neck back.
Exhaustion. This body gives out on me.
My limbs ache and my heart-thread snaps.
Every step is like a thorn into my dirty foot.
I scream for healing–am baptized hollow.
My bones chill under ice flesh; all alone.
Trying desperately to push myself up,
I gasp for freedom with every breath.
It's like the air has turned to water,
And breathing is bewitched impossible.
There seems to be no end to this battle,
That's left me a broken and weary mind.
I need a remedy. Please, just a rescuer.
My soul yearns. Please, just a rescuer.
Wrote this one awhile back in 2014 when I was struggling mentally. Interestingly enough, "A Vagrant's Winter," "A Settler's Spring," and this poem were the first three poems I had written; all of which were also untitled at the time since I knew nothing of poetry. I guess it sparked my desire for writing before I was even fully aware of it myself. There are still battles, but you can win them little-by-little everyday. Don't give up. Don't give in.
