The Anonymous hacker collective has released an internal document that gives an exclusive insight into three 2012 hacking campaigns designed to "punish" the world's "wicked".
Recalling police raids on Occupy Wall Street and Los Angeles camp sites, Anonymous blames the mayors of 18 US mayor cities for "the indiscriminate and unprovoked arrest and brutalistion of thousands of protesters".
On New Year's Eve, the collective launched "Operation Hiroshima", aimed at releasing as much "incriminating" information as possible on a seemingly random list of targets. As well as the personal addresses, emails and passwords of high-profile politicians such as New York's mayor Michael Bloomberg, the release also contained data reportedly taken from the FBI and the New York and Oakland police departments.
Anonymous has explained the move as a coordinated attack on the "protectors of property and purveyors of social control". The police's treatment of Occupy protesters is cited as the key motivation for the attack.
"While we attacked the institutions of capitalism, it would only make sense to attack those who enforce it, the inherently oppressive protectors of property and purveyors of social control; the pigs, the fuzz... the police," reads the document.
Top police officers around the US saw their email and Facebook accounts hacked, as well as their private documents, and published on online sharing services such as Bit Torrent.
Following on from Operation Hiroshima and the "LulzXmas" attack on security firm Stratfor, Anonymous revealed its involvement in a new "Project Mayhem" on 30 December.
Two key attacks on the California Statewide Law Enforcement Association (CSLEA) and New York State Association of Chiefs of Police have been confirmed by the AnonymousIRC Twitter feed. "Double wham bam: #AntiSec hacks, dumps CA & NY law enforcement emails" read AnonymousIRC's tweet.
The names, home addresses, passwords and personal email logs of over 300 police chiefs have been released.
The New Year's Eve hacker operation included also a virtual assault on the police's equipment supply store, SpecialForces.com.
"Truth be told, we had been keeping quiet about this particular target for a time while we lived large off its pillaged goods," explains the statement.
"However, just prior to this release, a former member leaked the cleartext password lists, and some media picked up on it. Now that the jig is up, the full story of this owning can be told."
The projects are part of Anonymous' ongoing Operation Anti-Security campaign. In it the collective promised to mount a series of cyber-attacks on multiple law enforcement agencies.

World Of Twist were the outliers of the Manchester scene and made some cracking records between 1990 and 1992. Sweets was a stab at a hit on the proper charts with a lyric written by Tony Ogden in a deliberate attempt to write an awful lyric- 'sweets are sweet but you are sweeter baby'. Actually it isn't that bad. I've heard worse. It wasn't a hit reaching number 58 in 1991. This version is from the 12″ single, produced by The Grid, and is really rather sweet.

A New Thanksgiving Tradition: Sour Cream-Horseradish Mash Potatoes
Every year I bring a either a side dish or appetizer to my family's Thanksgiving Dinner. Last year I made this version of mashed potatoes and they were such a hit that I'm planning on preparing them again this year. I found the recipe in the November 2006 issue of Bon Appétit.
Sour Cream-Horseradish Mash Potatoes
2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes (unpeeled)
¼ cup butter
1 cup sour cream
1/3 cup fresh chopped chives
¼ cup prepared horseradish
Place potatoes in large saucepan; cover with cold water. Bring to boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well; cool slightly. Peel and mash potatoes; place in large saucepan. Over medium heat, dry out potatoes for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir butter into potatoes. In a medium bowl whisk sour cream, chives and horseradish. Fold sour cream mixture into potatoes. Season with salt. Give thanks to Bon Appétit! (Serves 6)

You are hereBlomfield. Charles
Blomfield. Charles
Charles Blomfield (5 January 1848–15 March 1926) was a New Zealand decorator, artist and music teacher. He was born in London, London, England on 5 January 1848.
A widow, Mrs Blomfield brought her family to New Zealand intending to settle in Northland as part of a settlement called 'Albertland'. On arrival in Auckland they decided not to proceed on Northland to become farmers but to pursue urban trades in Auckland. The family remained in Auckland after that and many of the descendants of the various children still reside in the Auckland area.
Charles Blomfield lived in Freeman's Bay - 40 Wood Street, in a house built by his brother and allegedly made out of the timber from one large Kauri tree. As well as an exhibiting easel painter Blomfield worked as a sign-writer and interior decorator; for this trade he maintained studios in shops at various times. These were usually on Karangahape Road, one of these was shared with his daughter who made a living painting floral pieces which she also exhibited at the Auckland Society of Arts.
Blomfield travelled throughout the centre of the North Island on several occasions in the 1870s and 80s creating many landscape paintings of the New Zealand countryside, often for sale to visitors to New Zealand. He was fortunate to view the famed Pink and White Terraces several times and paint them before they were destroyed by the eruption of Tarawera in 1886. His meticulous sketches and finished paintings are some of the main records of them. For the remainder of his life he was probably able to rely on new versions of his classic views of them to supplement his income.
His paintings are widely regarded as the epitome of 19th century New Zealand landscape art, although his work, like many of his contemporaries, fell out of fashion during the 20th century, only to be re-evaluated in the 1970s. He was unable to come to terms with developments in art and remained staunchly conservative and hostile to 'modern art'. In his later years he found himself increasingly sidelined by the artistic circles in Auckland which he had previously shone in and was probably embittered by this.
Blomfield was an elder of the Baptist Church and partly responsible for the construction of the Auckland Baptist Tabernacle on the city's main thoroughfare Queen street, which when it opened in 1886 was the largest building in the city and also contained the largest room. The ceiling of the auditorium of the Tabernacle is decorated with stencil work carried out by Charles and his brother Samuel. He died at his residence in Wood Street in 1926. He was survived by several children. One of his brothers, William, was a noted newspaper cartoonist.

Last Sunday, I participated in the East Austin Urban Farm Tour, benefiting the Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance. I met Kristi at Hausbar Farms, but arrived a bit early to hang out with my friends from Bola Pizza and take some pictures of the farm. Hausbar is a relatively new farm, one of three properties owned by the owners Eastside Cafe. The two properties and the land surrounding the restaurant, grow approximately 85% of the produce used at Eastside. The farm had grown since I last saw it.
As always, if there are animals around, I tend to gravitate toward them – in this case Julian the donkey.
Julian was difficult to get a good photo of, because he followed me around like a puppy, and I couldn't get any distance. He went on the farm tours provided by Dorsey. He ate the button off my pants.
Eastside was serving tamales and chili, although I was too warm for such fare. Bola Pizza was dishing up their amazing pie.
This chicken wanted nothing to do with all of the hooplah, and stayed perched above the fray.
Next, we hoofed it over to Springdale Farm, on Springdale Lane. The Farm, owned by Paula and Glenn Foore, was in full glorious bloom. There were snapdragons aplenty, and they provided a wonderfully colorful accent to the crops.
I tried a delicious lamb slider from The Driskill Grill.
From Springdale, we hoofed it over to Rain Lily Farm, on Shady Lane. Also in full Springtime glory, the farm was fully planted and looked productive.
There was a salad with farm fresh lettuce, pork belly, and strawberries, and Colleen from Pie Fixes Everything was also on hand with her delicious treats.
Next up, we headed over to Boggy Creek Farm, which has for years been one of my happy places. For some reason, everytime I visit Boggy Creek with a camera, I feel compelled to snap a photo of the work gloves, hung up to dry each day, on the back porch of the farmhouse.
To me, these are a reminder that farming takes hard work. In the distance, there are folks getting a tour of the farm.
The flowers were stunning at Boggy Creek as well.
After Boggy Creek, we walked back to Hausbar, where we started.
The pizzas were still flying out of the oven, so I snagged a piece and went off to re-visit the button stealing donkey. After the tour officially ended, a few of us went back to Springdale Farm, for a lovely evening under the big oak tree, with more food, some wine, and lots more fun.
I love our East Austin Urban Farms, and the farmers are some of the most special people I've ever met. We are so lucky to have access to them. Boggy Creek and Springdale both have farmstands on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 9-1:00, where you can purchase their fabulous produce. You can help support Rain Lily Farm, by joining Farmhouse Delivery, a local food delivery service. You can taste the wonderful bounty growing at Hausbar, by patronizing Eastside Cafe.

Golden Tree, a photo by Roberta Warshaw on Flickr.
Anyway, she gave me the dress and I proceeded to make a lace pattern with it. I hadn't found a use for it until now but I think it works well here with the gold tree.
The last few days I haven't done much in the way of artwork. I think I needed a break. Plus I decided I wanted to set up an online gallery with available artwork for sale. I have had a few people ask me where they could buy my work and I didn't really have a good answer.
Frankly, I am tired of Etsy and all their fees. I thought I would try something different. Although if it doesn't work out, Etsy may be the only other option.
So if you are so inclined and you would like to purchase a piece you can click on the link here or at the top of the page and it will take you there.

See this smile on my face? 😀 Spring has officially sprouted!
I think that calls for a new outfit for my little man! Nothing too formal, just something crisp and new for Easter dinner and our spring egg hunt. I've had it up to here with buying kids' clothes based on low price only to have them fade, shrink, and fall apart, so I turned to a new online shopping site to see if I could find some clothes that would truly be worth their price.
www.Hartstrings.com has a newly revamped website that's really easy to navigate. I saw lots of dresses and cute girl things at first, but then quickly realized that I had to click on the Kitestrings tab in order to view all the little boys' clothing collections. (Sidenote: I noticed they also carry brands like Puma and Timberland, which I totally bypassed. I much prefer the classic style of the Hartstrings and Kitestrings brands.) I was immediately drawn to the Sand Dunes collection, which reminded me of my childhood (I'm originally a Long Island girl, so it only took this one photo (below) to bring back memories of running on the beach as a little girl. 🙂 )
In deciding on a spring outfit for my son, I wanted to make sure I chose something that would get a lot of wear. Sure, a more formal outfit would be really cute, but it would probably get worn once and then sit. If I'm going to spend any real money on toddler clothes, they have to be versatile enough to mix and match for maximum wear. So, we chose the striped polo shirt, above, and a cool pair of chino shorts that I knew could be dressed up or down as needed.
I had to stop myself at one outfit this time, but I found a few other things that are now on my Kitestrings "Wishlist." How cute would this T-shirt be with the same shorts?! And I love these shoes for fall…
When our shipment arrived just a few days after ordering, I was a little worried when I took the shorts out of the bag. My son is on the skinny side, and he was swimming in the size 2T I ordered. That is, until I noticed the adjustable waistband tabs! LOVE that! I guess I didn't notice that detail in the description. Once I adjusted them to fit, they were just fine and I'm even happier with my purchase now knowing that they will fit through this summer and the next.
The shirt is a 3T (a little big, but ordered with long-term wear in mind.) Just like the shorts, the quality is just what I had hoped for. The fabrics feel soft yet sturdy, they're cut to fit really well, and it's clear that these clothes were made to last.
Doesn't he look like such a grown-up little man in his new spring outfit!? He was so proud of himself, I could hardly tear him away from the mirror.
Oh, and P.S….I couldn't help but browse through the little girls' things while I was shopping. I'm a sucker for cute little dresses! (Hartstrings even features coordinating brother/sister outfits!) I really hope someday I get the chance to shop for my own little girl, but until then, I'll just daydream about these. Aren't they adorable? I would think that dresses like this would be so cool, comfy and easy for a sunny spring day!

Electric grid upgrades in Bethalto
BETHALTO – Ameren Illinois has completed two electric grid upgrades in the Bethalto area this summer to reduce power outages, with one more update underway.
"The company has installed outage detection technology to two different circuits in town, and one circuit in Rosewood Heights," said Brian Bretsch, Ameren Illinois communications executive in the Maryville office. "This enhancement better integrates Bethalto and Rosewood Heights with the electric grid Ameren Illinois continues to modernize."
About 650 customers in the Bethalto area will benefit from this new technology, he said.
Bretsch said the outage detection devices, called IntelliRupters, sense the condition of the electric system and determine appropriate switching actions to reduce the number of customers affected by an outage. The IntelliRupters work in tandem with other outage detection devices to isolate the outage and reduce length of the disruption. Switching enables Ameren Illinois to re-route power from another circuit.
Besides installing the IntelliRupters, Ameren Illinois is also enhancing power lines in two Bethalto-area locations to improve electric service reliability for customers during severe weather and handle any increases in future demand, as follows:
— Upgraded power lines and nine power poles along a three-fourths-mile stretch of Oak Street in Cottage Hills.
— By the end of the year, Ameren Illinois will set 11 new poles in place and enhance power lines along West Main and Walnut streets in Bethalto.
"These projects are a key step in our long-range plans to fortify the electric delivery system and improve overall reliability," said Jason Klein, director of Division Operations for Ameren Illinois serving Madison County. "The grid is evolving and we're excited to bring these enhancements to our customers in the region."
Crew members have worked more than 4,000 hours to complete these projects to upgrade service reliability for customers in Bethalto, Cottage Hills and Rosewood Heights, Bretsch said.
The work is part of a multi-year initiative to modernize the energy delivery system, he said.
Since 2012, Ameren Illinois has implemented hundreds of projects, adding new technology and strengthening poles, wires and distribution equipment, an Ameren press release says. As a result, reliability has improved by an average of 17 percent, saving Ameren Illinois customers an estimated $48 million a year, it says.
The company has added more than 800 employees, and more than 1,200 Illinois-based contract workers who are supporting Ameren Illinois projects, the release says.

Lowering the A1c cutoff for prediabetes leads to less cost-effective preventive interventions, concluded CDC researchers.
Three major medical organizations have three different recommendations for prediabetes: the American Diabetes Association sets is at 6%, the International Expert Committee sets it at 5.7%, and the Expert Committee on the Diagnosis and Classifıcation of Diabetes Mellitus sets it at 5.5%.
So, who's right? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study looked at the issue from a cost-effectiveness standpoint, and determined that, assuming a conventional $50,000/QALY cost-effectiveness benchmark, the A1c cutoffs of 5.7% and higher were best. (Learn how to handle prediabetes from a clinical standpoint in ACP Internist's article on the subject.)
The CDC researchers created a Markov simulation to examine the cost effectiveness associated with a progressive 0.1% decrease in the A1c cutoff from 6.4% to 5.5% using the data of nondiabetic American adults from the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (1999-2006).
The study looked at two different interventions: a high-cost, resource-intensive approach that cost on average almost $1,000 per year, and a low-cost intervention with an annual cost of $300 per year. Researchers measured the cost per each quality-adjusted life year (QALY) at each A1c cutoff for both interventions.
Results appeared in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.
Cutoffs of 5.7% and above were cost-effective, based on the conventional $50,000/QALY cost-effectiveness benchmark. The optimal cutoff may be lower if the cost of preventive interventions could be lowered without compromising effectiveness.
Lowering the A1c cutoff would increase the health benefıts of the preventive interventions at higher costs. The high-cost approach lowered the A1c cutoff from 6.0% to 5.9% and from 5.9% to 5.8% would result in $27,000 and $34,000 per QALY gained, respectively. Continuing to decrease the cutoff from 5.8% to 5.7%, from 5.7% to 5.6%, and from 5.6% to 5.5% would cost $45,000, $58,000, and $96,000 per QALY gained, respectively.
For the low-cost intervention, the A1c cutoff from 6.0% to 5.9% and from 5.9% to 5.8% would result in $24,000 and $27,000 per QALY gained, respectively. Continuing to lower the cutoff from 5.8% to 5.7%, 5.7% to 5.6%, and 5.6% to 5.5% would cost $34,000, $43,000 and $70,000 per QALY gained, respectively.

Host So Simple
Web Design, SEO and Internet Marketing
Setting up a website is the very first step of an Internet marketing campaign, and the success or failure of your site depends greatly on how specifically you have defined your website goals. If you don't know what you want your site to accomplish, it will most likely fail to accomplish anything. Without goals to guide you in developing and monitoring your website, all your site will be is an online announcement that you are in business.
However, just because hoards of people have passed through your gates does not mean your site is successful. Usually, you want those visitors to actually do something there. It is equally important to monitor the number of visitors to your site who made a purchase. This figure is called the site conversion rate, and it is an essential element of the efficiency of your website.
If you want your site to stimulate some form of action, whether it is visitors filling out a form so a representative can contact them, or purchasing a product, there are steps you can take to insure that your website is functioning at peak efficiency.
One of the first indicators of how well your site is working for you is finding out the number of visitors in a given period of time. A good baseline measurement is a month in which you haven't been doing any unusual offline promotional activities. You do this by looking at your web logs.
To find the site conversion rate, take the number of visitors per month and figure out the percentage of them that actually performed the action your site is set up for. For example, if you had 2,000 hits to your site, but only 25 of them purchased your product, your site conversion rate equals 1.25%. To get this figure, take your number of visitors and divide that figure by the number of visitors who made a purchase. Then divide that result by 100. (2000/25X100).
If your website is set-up to get visitors to fill out a form, make sure to then figure out what the difference is between your site conversion rate and your sales conversion rate. This is because not everyone who fills out your form will actually become your customer. However, whether your site is set-up to sell a service or product, or to get the visitor to fill out a form, the site conversion rate will measure the success or failure of your website whenever you make changes to the site.

Botswana Power Corporation has entered into yet another symbiotic cooperation with South Africa's Eskom Power Utility since the recent signing of a Non-Firm agreement on power supply to Botswana by Eskom.
A partnership to exchange skills and knowledge on distribution infrastructure maintenance was signed on 31st March 2017 in Johannesburg, South Africa. This exchange program will benefit both utilities with improved quality of the electricity distribution network for their valued customers in the Region.In line with BPC's Masa 2020 Turnaround Strategy, the objective to ensure continuity of power supply to Botswana will be met through the collaboration between the Corporation and Eskom.
The improved quality of electricity distribution network will translate into a more stable, reliable and efficient distribution system that will result in increased customer satisfaction. Masa 2020 Transformation Strategy aims to improve service delivery to the customer and is the basis for which BPC resolved to borrow a leaf out of Eskom's book of best practices.
BPC and Eskom have thus agreed on an exchange program with areas of cooperation outlined as follows:
Distribution Infrastructure Planning – where the two will share experiences and approaches to close any key skills gap and improve operational performance in relation to load forecasting, development of distribution master plans, Medium Voltage (MV) substations design as well as MV underground and overhead network designs.
BPC will further experience ways through which the distribution network information can be managed and explore the possibility of integrating distributed generation into the distribution network.
Metering and Energy Management – within this area of collaboration simulation of distribution system losses through load flow study in a given network will be undertaken.
An analysis of the existing Revenue Protection structures will be done to establish the most effective framework or model to be adopted. Policies around revenue protection may be reviewed depending on the gaps identified during the exchange program.
Distribution Infrastructure Protection – BPC will consider ways through which it can upgrade its distribution infrastructure protection system to the modern technology developments in order to improve network integrity and reliability.
Geographical Information Systems (GIS) – BPC and Eskom will undertake cross border data linking to allow the seamless connectivity of networks in both Botswana and South Africa.
Operations and Maintenance – Maintenance Standards, Policies and Procedures on Primary Equipment Operations will be reviewed to achieve a computerised maintenance management system.
To improve on operational efficiency, the collaboration will also focus on Material/Spares Management to effectively link maintenance, inventory and supply chain management.
Subsequently, this will assist in improving turnaround times during BPC's maintenance procedures, thereby minimising customer queries with regards to time taken during the restoration of power supply after fault/outage has taken place.
Standards and Technology Development – this area of collaboration involves the standardisation of substation designs, from rural types to major substations e.g. 66kV; 5-20MVA substations.
This will assist BPC to accommodate growing demand for electricity supply to rural areas for which distribution was initially planned. The substation design will take into consideration design philosophies especially the latest technologies.
Training – BPC and Eskom will establish a joint curriculum design and implementation to include the commercialisation of technologies. A Human Resources staff exchange program has been planned, and during this exchange, training infrastructure like laboratories and equipment will be shared where necessary.
Collaborative research on areas of similar interest and joint projects will be undertaken as part of the joint distribution network agreement between BPC and Eskom.

How do you build the perfect city? Urban wellness depends on a complex mixture of transportation systems, public health, and food planning, and there are often many factors standing in the way. Between regional politics, narrow-minded voting blocks, economic downturn, and uncompromising geography, the deck is stacked against the happily satisfied urban community. Despite all of the hurdles, cities around the world are making changes, big and small, to ensure a happy and sustainable future.
Bogotá, Colombia
Colombia's capital city is a veritable poster child for urban planning progress. Spearheaded by two consecutive mayors, Antanas Mockus and Enrique Peñalosa, Bogotá's urban reinvigoration has set the standard for global urbanism.
First dubbed the "The Athens of South America" by Monsignor Maria Rafael Carrasquilla in 1895, Bogotá has gradually begun to live up to its nickname. The capital is increasingly known as a cultural and education hub boasting 57 museums, 35 libraries, 25 churches, 20 public squares, and 162 monuments.
The city's 7,700,000 inhabitants live amongst a thoughtfully preserved mix of Spanish-colonial and modern architecture.
Bogotá's Transmilenio Bus Rapid Transit Service boasts a daily ridership of 1,400,000, carrying passengers across 70 miles on 12 different lines.
Peñalosa's bike path system, Ciclorutas, connects 234 miles of protected bicycle paths.
Since the construction of the ciclorutas, bicycle use has quintupled in the city, and it is estimated that there are between 300,000 and 400,000 trips made daily in Bogotá by bicycle.
On Sundays and public holidays, nearly 75 miles of streets are closed off to automobile traffic from 7am to 2pm, yielding privilege of the city to the pedestrian.
Along with the removal of thousands of parking spots, a travel restriction is enforced during peak hours for cars with certain license plates.
With bus and bicycle transit made safe, efficient, and convenient, private automobile ownership in Bogotá has decreased to 27%.

Vancouver, British Columbia
Vancouver is the eighth largest municipality in Canada. Located on the country's western coast, its highly regard infrastructure threads a needle between Canada's North Shore Mountains, the Fraser River to the south, and the Georgia Strait to the west.
Vancouver's downtown SkyTrain is the longest automated light rapid transit system in the world.
A finely meshed urban grid with mid-block lanes ensures easy walkability in the urban center.
Branding of the city's transit system draws from the city's history and the region's foresting industry, incorporating wooden elements into the branding system and structures of the transit stations.
Because of its unique geography, Vancouver functions without a dedicated expressway connecting the suburbs to the central district. Instead, the city's residents rely heavily on
mass public transit systems: a mix of buses,
an elevated light rail system, and cable cars.
Set limits for building heights help maintain
the city's "view corridors", preserving the city's mountainous backdrop.

Davis, California
Initially modeled after Amsterdam's bike-centric cityscape, Davis has set the precedent for cycle-minded cities around the world. However, unlike the cities from which Davis first drew its inspiration, and the many cities it continues to inspire, its urban fabric resembles the low density, spread out infrastructure more typical of automobile dependent, mid-level American cities.
First established as a farming community, Davis and its surrounding region are incredibly flat, and thus, extremely conducive to bike riding.
The first pro-bicycle majority was elected to Davis' City Council in 1966, first establishing its comprehensive system of protected bicycle paths, greenways, uniform design standards for bike lanes and paths, and new coding laws, ensuring all new subdivisions are built with bicycle accessability.
Culs-de-sac in Davis' residential districts often function as bike path connections to better link the city's neighborhoods.
Davis' strong roots in farming and agriculture make for a highly regarded farmer's market, ranked 5th in the nation by the U.S. News Travel.
There are more bikes than there are people in Davis, California.

Minneapolis, Minnesota
Straddling the northernmost reaches of the Mississippi River in the heart of the American midwest, Minneapolis, Minnesota is paving the way for an active urban populous, no matter the weather.
Due in large part to its vibrant and well-funded public park system, Minneapolis has been ranked the fittest city in the U.S. three times over by the College of Sports Medicine.
More than 34 miles of bike paths, greenways, and separated bike lanes connect downtown Minneapolis and surrounding neighborhoods.
To encourage physical activity in the wintertime, Minneapolis' Skyway provides 52 city blocks worth of protected, elevated walking paths.
The Minneapolis Sculpture Garden is the largest urban sculpture garden in the country.
The adversarial climate has helped to form a strong community-focused cycling culture throughout the city. Public air pumps are located at businesses around town.
Despite the bitter cold winters and the sweltering summers, Minneapolis ranks second in the U.S. in percentage of commuter cyclists behind Portland, Oregon.
Minneapolis's Martin Olav Sabo Bridge weaves a portion of the the city's 5.5-mile Midtown Greenway over a seven lane highway, through a series of power lines, and over the city's Hiawatha light rail line.

Nagoya, Japan
While Tokyo is renowned for its cutting edge modernity, Kyoto for its preservation of traditional culture, and Osaka for its hard working, blue collar mentality, Nagoya is known for being a comfortable blend of the three. Located in Japan's fertile Chubu region, the fourth largest city in Japan attracts all types of people. And while the city may lack the type of niche identity that its neighbors are able to claim, Nagoya's thoughtful development proves that sometimes an adaptable nature pays off.
Considered the "Japanese Detroit," nearly all of Japan's major automakers are headquartered in Nagoya.
Nagoya's urban fabric seamlessly blends traditional historic architecture with new modern styles, allowing for an eclectic range of street facades.
The historic Nagoya Castle, built by Tokugawa Ieyasu during the Shogun period, lies in the center of the city.
While Tokyo primarily relies upon its subway system, Kyoto on its bus lines, and Osaka on the bicycle, mass transit in Nagoya is more open ended, offering all three options to easily navigate the city.
Nearly 15% of of the population rides bicycles.
Modeled after Copenhagen's cycle infrastructure, fully protected bike lanes line some of Nagoya's busiest streets.
Oasis 21, a multi-use facility in the heart of the Sakae, the city's shopping district, serves as a bus depot, outdoor park, and underground shopping center. Its large oval glass roof is filled with water to help keep temperatures cool in the shopping area below.
At night, the artsy, family-focused shopping district of Sakae, transforms into Nagoya's bustling nightlife hub.
Reminiscent of New York's Greenwich Village, the tightly knit, labyrinthian walkways of the historic Osu Shopping Street serve as an open air flea market with food vendors, cafes, vintage shops, and camera stores.

" A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn."
2012 has been a tough year. To be honest, I am just a little bit weary of brokenness and sadness.
I am so ready for the time when, as Tolkien and Sally Lloyd Jones put it, "everything sad will come untrue."
But in the midst of this year, I have enjoyed countless moments of laughter, hugs, love, and joy. I have seen the love of the Church and the provisions of God. I have cuddled my son, spent time with my family, and rejoiced with my family as we get ready to welcome a new in-law!
And tonight, I will celebrate the birth of a little baby 2,000 years ago--a little baby who came to redeem this broken world.
"He will make everything the way it was always meant to be."
Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!

Brazil says no to global forest plan.
|More than 30 countries set the first-ever deadline on Tuesday to end deforestation by 2030, but the feasibility of such a goal was eroded when a key player, Brazil, said it would not join.
The United States, Canada and the entire European Union signed on to a declaration to halve forest loss by 2020 and eliminate deforestation entirely by 2030.
"This is the family photo we have been looking for for decades," said Charles McNeill, a senior environmental policy adviser for the U.N. Development Program in an interview with the Associated Press. "The forest issue is where everyone comes together."
But, like any family, there were signs of dysfunction before the agreement was formally unveiled on Tuesday. Brazil, in an interview with AP, said it would not join.
Brazil's position also highlighted the divisions between countries as they prepare to continue formal negotiations later this year in Peru in the hopes of meeting a late 2015 deadline for a new international treaty.
"Unfortunately, we were not consulted. But I think that it's impossible to think that you can have a global forest initiative without Brazil on board. It doesn't make sense," said Brazilian Environment Minister Izabella Teixeira said in an interview Monday with The Associated Press.
If the goal is met, the U.N. says it would be the equivalent of taking every car off the road in the world. The group also pledged to restore more than one million square miles of forest worldwide by 2030. Norway vowed to spend $350 million to protect forests in Peru and another $100 million in Liberia.
But without Brazil, a halt to deforestation would nearly be impossible.
"A deforestation agreement without Brazil is like a carbon reduction plan without the United States," said Paul Wapner, professor of international environmental policy at American University.
McNeill said "there were efforts to reach out to Brazilian government people but there wasn't a response."
"There was no desire to exclude Brazil," said McNeill. "They are the most important country in this area. An effort that involves Brazil is much more powerful and impactful than one that doesn't."
Teixeira says her government had concerns that the text could clash with Brazil's national laws, which allow for managed felling of the Amazon and other forests.
"It's different to have legal deforestation vs. illegal deforestation. Our national policy is we want to stop illegal deforestation," she said.
McNeill, who said the UNDP facilitated the forest declaration process, said the effort to get countries to sign on to the initiative would continue until the Paris summit. "Hopefully, Brazil will have a chance to get on board," he said.
Teixeira emphasized that Brazil is committed to protecting the Amazon rainforest, which is considered one of the world's most important natural defenses against global warming because of its capacity to absorb huge amounts of carbon dioxide.
The minister said her country has set a goal of slowing the pace of deforestation to 3,900 square kilometers (1,505 square miles) annually by 2020. That would be down from about 5,843 square kilometers (2,256 square miles) in the August 2012 through July 2013 period, when Brazil made its last annual survey measuring the destruction of the forest by studying satellite images.
Brazil's rate of deforestation has fallen 79 percent since 2004, according to government figures. But last year, the government reported that annual destruction of its Amazon rainforest jumped by 28 percent after four straight years of declines.
The destruction was still the second-lowest amount of jungle destroyed since Brazil began tracking deforestation in 1988, but environmental activists blamed the increase on recent loosening of Brazil's environmental law meant to protect the jungle. They also say that the government's push for big infrastructure projects like dams, roads and railways is pushing deforestation.
Teixeira denied that the increase had anything to do with the revised Forest Code law, which was passed two years ago after more than a decade of efforts by Brazil's powerful agricultural lobby. The changes mostly eased restrictions for landowners with smaller properties, allowing them to clear land closer to riverbanks and other measures.
On the broader climate change talks, Teixeira said Brazil --- the world's sixth largest emitter of carbon dioxide --- is open to a binding treaty that would commit every country to emission reduction targets for beyond 2020, "but only if every country is on board."
After the last climate change talks in Copenhagen five years ago, which failed to produce a binding treaty, Brazil set a voluntary goal of reducing its emissions by nearly 40 percent by 2020, mostly through reducing deforestation and promoting renewable energy and sustainable agriculture.

Fallout 3 isn't exactly an unknown. We've been covering the game extensively since it was first revealed a little over one year ago, and last week published quite a bit of information regarding several of the game's systems, including a preview of a six hour gameplay session and plenty of video. Yet most of that was with the Xbox 360 version. Many PC gamers who still fondly remember the Fallout games of the late 1990s likely still want to know more specifics about the version of their preferred platform, and we got a chance to check it out at a recent event in San Francisco.
While there aren't any particularly major differences between the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC versions in terms of features at launch, there are some smaller ones. Fallout 3 PC will use Microsoft's Games for Windows – Live, meaning gamers will sign in using an account and amass achievement points and all the other associated features of the service. Since Microsoft announced GFWL is now totally free, nobody has to worry about any additional charge. Bethesda also mentioned the PC and Xbox 360 exclusive downloadable content for Fallout 3, the specifics of which will be revealed at a later date, will be downloaded directly through whatever type of download service Microsoft eventually sets up, which neither we nor the Bethesda representative we spoke with have yet seen.
As for the rest of the game, players can expect the regular complement of PC features. Most of the major graphics options like resolution and anti aliasing are configured outside of the game and once in, you can still tweak a few like object, actor and item fade. All the controls can be customized as well. There's a tag for LIVE, which is GFW Live, in the main menu options, but it wasn't active on the build we played so we couldn't check it out. The build ran quite smoothly, but that's to be expected considering the sky high system specs.
Anyway, on to the actual game. Like many of the previous play sessions with Fallout 3, I started out just outside Vault 101 where the game begins and was told I could pretty much go anywhere, though major story spoilers were not allowed. So, in the spirit of adventuring, I set out to the north of the game world, an area some of my colleagues hadn't checked out as much. To the south and directly to the east from Vault 101 are Megaton, where the story picks up, and Washington D.C. where nefarious super mutants reside (Bethesda may have inadvertently made a stingingly topical social commentary given the current economic bailout fiasco), so I headed northeast to the eastern edge of the map, then back and up to the northwest corner. I wound up finding some pretty strange stuff.
In case you're totally unfamiliar, Fallout 3 offers you the opportunity to fight and make friends in a post-apocalyptic world. Instead of the isometric view from games past, Bethesda decided to take the series into the first-person perspective like its Elder Scrolls series. Much of the same color palette of Fallout seems to have been maintained for the third game, depicting ruined wastes, dilapidated factories and facilities, and blasted cityscapes. To what degree the series' ironic sense of humor has been transitioned into the sequel remains to be seen, but after interacting with a few of the NPCs scattered around the game world, I can definitely say they're at least more interesting to talk to than the NPCs in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.
Though there is a main story in Fallout 3, you don't really have to engage in it. You can, instead, just roam around the countryside, taking on quests from townsfolk or whoever else you happen to run into, and battling horribly mutated creatures, crazed robots, and bandits that populate the game world. By doing this you gain experience, level up and power up your character, and snag new weapons and items, so in that sense it's a very free-form game, letting you engage in what you find to be entertaining.
As you encounter enemies you can either attack in real time with guns or melee weapons or shift into VATS targeting mode, which pauses the action and lets you select specific parts of the enemies' bodies to hit. Each part has an associated percentage, and this mode is advantageous as it lets you blast a few rounds in quick succession. This ability isn't unlimited, however, as it's governed by action points. In Fallout 3, action points regenerate over time, so if you're in the midst of battle, you'll need to find cover and let them regenerate if you want to perform more targeted shots. You could fight in real time, but since the combat is more statistic-based than twitch-based, you're usually better off with VATS. Another factor to consider is your ammunition supply, so close attention should be paid to reserves and the whereabouts of NPC vendors.

Working on a new monograph Eckhart's Bible which is based on the finished first fascicle (the Bible-index, created and annotated by Loris Sturlese and me, one of the reasons why over the past weeks I could not post any blog) of the Indices to Meister Eckhart's critical edition (Kohlhammer, Stuttgart) (to be published early 2015), I came across a wonderful joke which shows Eckhart criticising an abbot who had little knowledge of the Old and the New Testament:
... The two corns of the abbot's mitre represent the two testaments which the abbot should know in his head, while the two lappets that hang down on the shoulders signify the fulfilment of both testaments by following the mandates. A certain person [Eckhart himself, it seems], however, who was asked about the meaning by a certain officer of the kings who saw somebody with little knowledge in both testaments celebrating under a pontifical mitre, answered that the two corns signified, as stated before, the two testaments, but that the lappets of the mitre signified that he knew neither of them, according to that verse from Jer. 12: 'You are close to their mouth, but far away from their kidneys'.[1]
[1] Eckhart, In Ex. n. 258 (LW II 207,3-11): 'Quod autem hic dicitur de pectusculo et armo dextro, congruit quod in mitra pontificali duo cornua significant duo testamenta in capite per cognitionem, duae vero dependentiae descendentes ad scapulas significant utriusque testamenti impletionem per mandatorum operationem. Quidam tamen, requisitus a quodam ex regibus, `qui´ cum videret quendam celebrantem sub mitra pontificali parum scientem in utroque testamento, respondit quod duo cornua significabant quidem, ut prius, duo testamenta, dependentiae vero a mitra significabant quod neutra sciebat, secundum illud Ier. 12: 'prope es tu ori eorum, et longe a renibus eorum''; see Innocentius III, De sacro altaris mysterio I c. 60 (PL 217,796: 'mitra pontificis scientiam utriusque testamenti significat, nam duo cornua sunt testamenta, duae fimbriae spiritus et littera.'

On the Jonathan Ross Show, Egerton merely said, "It's very, very flattering. I've no idea if there's any truth in it but I mean, Lucasfilm, Disney, if there is then you know where I am." Meanwhile, previous Han Solo contender Miles Teller has admitted to auditioning for the part. So either Disney is shuffling the real new Han Solo in with a deck of expendable dudes, or Taron Egerton has signed a very, very tight NDA. Since that all gets a bit confusing, take your mind of things with a later clip of Egerton putting in a solid bid for Gaston.

Members of CEC from Kenya met with the CEC Chair and Regional Vice Chair for East and Southern Africa in Nairobi on the 7th of April 2017. The exciting lunch and meet was an introductory meeting aimed at knowing the members and their expectations on CEC.
The participants learnt that the Kenya membership is composed of educators, marketers, green economy practitioners and environmental activists. It came out very strongly that the members would like opportunities to volunteer and to ensure that they inspire all to love nature as part of #NatureForAll.
In the discussion, the members expressed that they needed training in areas such as communications to enable them contribute to the objectives of CEC more effectively. They also discussed strategies to strengthen and maintain constant contact with each other as CEC members and support each other in achieving the goals set by the Commission. It was agreed that the Commission should integrate an interdisciplinary approach towards communication and education since the members were from different fields, not only the conservation field.
A committee within the commission was formed to spearhead four main steps of action discussed in the meeting which were; communication and education training workshop, widening the #NatureForAll scope and getting more people including those in the grassroots involved, access to seed grants for members' projects and coming up with a members' exchange programme.
Members shared their challenges and success stories in their communication and education programs with the aim of empowering and improving the CEC membership engagement. It was agreed that each member should be responsible in sharing CEC work and getting more people to join the Commission.
The meeting ended with members sending their messages to the steering committee through the Chairman CEC and Regional Vice Chair for East and Southern Africa. From the messages, it was evident that the meeting had sparked more passion and enthusiasm in members towards achieving the mission set by CEC.

Every year, 120 children die due to air pollution.
Is it less?
This number tends to increase by 2020 and it shows death amount of direct influence. There is no research on death prognosis of lung cancer to be diagnosed later. The number 120 means three classes with 40 children pass away within one year. The number will increase to be one whole kindergarden children after 5 years.
What actions did Ministers in charge of environment take for this situation?
What actions did Mayors take for this situation?
In fact, they only adhered short-sighted poor policy such as smokeless stove, processed fuel and electricity discount.
Nobody took any action.
In 2008-2016, MNT 164,1 billion from State budget and Clear air fund, and USD 153,3 million from foreign aid were used for decreasing air pollution. Approximately MNT 600 billion were used, but no decrease of air pollution seen today.
Sadly, we have no plan even today.
Actions what shall individuals, entities, heads of governments, or heads of rural area take when AQI reaches 500+ are indefinite. Nobody knows what to do when maximum permissible level of Fine particular matter (PM 2.5) reaches to 10 or 20 times higher than 50 mcg/m3.
Nobody talks about 5-year air pollution decrease prognosis, and 10-year later negative influence to children's health.
None of mayors since 2000 took any action or did any work to reduce air pollution.
How many children should die in order to make them start working?
PS: It is informed that 120 children passed away according to research on Ulaanbaatar city air pollution impact on human health, made with cooperation of Social health department research team of Health Sciences University, University of California, Berkeley USA, and Seoul National University of South Korea.

Monero For Sale In Ghana – It Has Legs on All Levels – The Affluence Network
Thank you for visiting The Affluence Network in search for "Monero For Sale In Ghana" online. In the event of a fully functioning cryptocurrency, it could possibly be exchanged as being a commodity. Advocates of cryptocurrencies proclaim that this type of digital money is not handled by way of a main bank system and it is not thus subject to the whims of its inflation. Since there are always a minimal quantity of goods, this coinis price is dependant on market forces, permitting owners to industry over cryptocurrency deals. Here is the trendiest thing about cryptocurrencies; they usually do not physically exist everywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you look at a unique address for a wallet containing a cryptocurrency, there is no digital information held in it, like in the exact same way a bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It is simply a representation of worth, but there isn't any genuine palpable form of that worth. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be seized or frozen or audited by the banks and the law. They would not have spending limits and withdrawal restrictions imposed on them. No one but the person who owns the crypto wallet can determine how their wealth will be managed. Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are put in circulation. Because there's no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to produce more. The mining process is what creates more of the coin. It may be useful to consider the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are the same. Mining crypto coins means you'll really get to keep the total benefits of your efforts, but this reduces your likelihood of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members are going to have much greater chance of solving a block, but the benefit will be divided between all members of the pool, according to the number of "shares" won.
If you're considering going it alone, it really is worth noting that the software settings for solo mining can be more complex than with a pool, and beginners would be probably better take the latter route. This alternative also creates a secure stream of earnings, even if each payment is modest compared to entirely block the wages. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, The Affluence Network, and many others have now been designed as a non-fiat currency. In other words, its backers claim that there's "actual" value, even through there is absolutely no physical representation of that value. The value increases due to computing power, that is, is the only way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time frame that is worth an ever diminishing amount of money or some type of wages to be able to ensure the shortage. Each coin contains many smaller components. For Bitcoin, each component is called a satoshi. Operations that take place during mining are just to authenticate other transactions, such that both creates and authenticates itself, a simple and elegant alternative, which is one of the appealing aspects of the coin. Anyone who has mined the coin holds the address, and transfers it to some value is provided by another address, which is a "wallet" file saved on a computer. The blockchain is where the public record of all transactions dwells. Most all cryptocurrencies function as Bitcoin does.
The fact that there's little evidence of any increase in the use of virtual money as a currency may be the reason why there are minimal efforts to regulate it. The reason for this could be merely that the market is too little for cryptocurrencies to justify any regulatory effort. It really is also possible that the regulators just do not comprehend the technology and its implications, expecting any developments to act. The wonder of the cryptocurrencies is the fact that fraud was proved an impossibility: due to the dynamics of the protocol by which it is transacted. All deals on the crypto-currency blockchain are permanent. After youare paid, you get paid. This is simply not something short term where your visitors can challenge or require a discounts, or use illegal sleight of hand. In practice, many investors would be a good idea to utilize a cost processor, because of the permanent dynamics of crypto-currency dealings, you need to ensure that stability is difficult. With any kind of crypto-currency whether a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or some of the numerous additional altcoins, thieves and hackers might gain access to your individual secrets and so grab your money. However, you most likely will never get it back. It is quite crucial for you to adopt some excellent secure and safe routines when coping with any cryptocurrency. This will protect you from many of these bad activities.

Anyone can become a Bitcoin miner running applications with specialized hardware. Mining applications listen for broadcast trades on the peer-to-peer network and perform the appropriate tasks to process and validate these trades. Bitcoin miners do this because they can get transaction fees paid by users for faster transaction processing, and new bitcoins in existence are under denominated formulas. Since among the oldest forms of earning money is in money financing, it's a fact you could do this with cryptocurrency. Most of the lending websites currently focus on Bitcoin, many of these websites you might be needed fill in a captcha after a specific period of time and are rewarded with a bit of coins for visiting them. It is possible to see the www.cryptofunds.co site to locate some lists of of these websites to tap into the currency of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin markets have quite different dynamics. New ones are always popping up which means they don't have lots of market data and historical outlook for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have somewhat inferior liquidity as well and it is hard to think of an acceptable investment strategy. Only a fraction of bitcoins issued so far are available on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, which suggests the cost a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Many people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This restricts the number of bitcoins that are truly circulating in the exchanges. Additionally, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Thus, even the most diligent buyer couldn't buy all present bitcoins. This scenario is just not to suggest that markets will not be vulnerable to price manipulation, yet there is no need for large sums of cash to move market prices up or down. The merest events on the planet market can change the cost of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency volatile.

First learn, then models, indicators and most importantly practice looking at old charts and pick out trends. When you learn to keep a trading diary screenshots and your comment/forecast.

Entrepreneurs in the cryptocurrency movement may be wise to research possibilities for making substantial ammonts of money with various forms of internet marketing.There could be a rich reward for anyone daring enough to brave the cryptocurrency markets.Bitcoin structure provides an instructive example of how one might make lots of money in the cryptocurrency markets. Bitcoin is an astonishing intellectual and technical achievement, and it's created an avalanche of editorial coverage and venture capital investment opportunities. But very few people understand that and lose out on very profitable business models made accessible as a result of growing use of blockchain technology. It should be hard to get more modest increases (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study how to read these Candlestick charts! And I found these two rules to be accurate: having little increases is more profitable than trying to resist up to the pinnacle. Most day traders follow Candlestick, so it's better to examine publications than wait for order confirmation when you think the cost is going down. Secondly, there is more volatility and reward in monies that have not made it to the profitableness of sites like Coinwarz.

You've probably seen this often times where you frequently spread the nice word about crypto. "It's not erratic? What goes on when the value failures? " sofar, several POS programs gives free conversion of fiat, relieving some concern, but until the volatility cryptocurrencies is resolved, most of the people is going to be hesitant to keep any. We have to find a way to fight the volatility that's inherent in cryptocurrencies. The physical Internet backbone that carries information between the different nodes of the network is now the work of a number of companies called Internet service providers (ISPs), including companies offering long distance pipelines, occasionally at the international level, regional local pipe, which ultimately links in households and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only occur through any of these ISPs, players like amount 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP runs its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private firms, and occasionally by Governments, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to transfer messages across the network. Many ISPs have arrangements with providers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for "last mile"-consumers and businesses who desire to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network makes it possible for the data to stream without interruption, in the correct place at the perfect time.
While none of these organizations "possesses" the Internet together these firms decide how it operates, and recognized rules and standards that everyone stays. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that's taking place to discover how things work and what happens if something goes wrong. To get a domain name, for instance, one needs consent from a Registrar, which has a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to connect to and with her. Concern over security problems? A working group is formed to work with the problem and the alternative developed and deployed is in the interest of most parties. If the Internet is down, you have someone to phone to get it repaired. If the issue is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts in position and service level agreements, which govern the manner in which these problems are solved.
The advantage of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain is not governed by any centered company. No one can tell the miners to update, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that's something that as a dedicated promoter badge of honor, and is identical to the way the Internet functions. But as you comprehend now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that govern how it works present inherent problems to an individual. Blockchain technology has none of that. Ethereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, however, if growth is too fast, there may be some problems. If the platform is adopted quickly, Ethereum requests could improve dramatically, and at a rate that surpasses the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under a situation like this, the entire platform of Ethereum could become destabilized because of the raising costs of running distributed applications. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum platform and ether. Instability of demand for ether can lead to an adverse change in the economic parameters of an Ethereum based business that may result in business being unable to continue to run or to cease operation. For most users of cryptocurrencies it is not essential to understand how the process works in and of itself, but it is basically crucial that you understand that there's a process of mining to create virtual currency. Unlike monies as we know them today where Authorities and banks can just select to print unlimited amounts (I am not saying they're doing so, only one point), cryptocurrencies to be operated by users using a mining software, which solves the advanced algorithms to release blocks of monies that can enter into circulation.

and confutes in his Epistle to the Romans : Is he the God of the Jews only ? is he not also of the 'GentilesF yes, of the Gentiles a] o. The Disciples of our Lord, and especially St. Peter, were as deep in this Opinion as others ;, and, during our Saviour's Abode on Earth, they were confirmed in it by what they observed in him : He declared, he was
to preach he exprefly charged them not to go into the Way of the Gentiles, nor to enter into any City of' the Samaritan: ; hut to go rather to the lost Sheep ty" the House ofI/'mel : And after his Resurrection, when he enlarged their Commiffion, and bade them Go, teach all Notions; they understood him not, but were inquisitive about his rcssoring the Kingdom to ssrael. After the Ascenfion the Apostles continued'at Jewish/ent preaching to their ownNation, till, upon the Persecution of St. Stephen, many fied into other Parts, and, though they went as far as Pheniee, Cyprm, and yAntiooh, yet they preached the H/ord to none hut jews only, Acts an. 19. And when St. Peter, admonished byzan heavenly Vifion, had admitted some Gentiles into the Churchof Christ through Baptism, hewas called to an account for it by the-Apostles "and
' Brethren
Peter, when he says that in every Nation he that feareth God-is accepted with him, and the Apostles and Brethren, when they say that God hath granted to the Gentiles Repentance unto Life, mean one and the same Thing; And therefore, in the Text, to he accepted with God means no. more than to have from God the Offer of Repentance unto Life; and both certainly mean our having Admiffion into the Covenant with God ' through Christ esus. So that the whole of what St. Peter says in the Text amounts to this: " I now at length perceive that God " .has not confined his Mercies to a particular " Nation only ; but that all are capable of " inheriting the Promises in Christ Jesus, " who are duly prepared by Righteousness, " and the Fear of God."
This will farther appear to be the true Interpretation, if we examine the Case of Cornelius, and what the Acceptance was that he sound. Cornelius was a Gentile, and one of the best os them 3, a devout Man, and one who feared God with all his HousE, which gave much Alms to the People, and prayed to God alway : And, yet his Goodness did not make it unnecessary for him to. become a Christian. The heavenly Vision was not sent to satisfy - him that his Righteousness was sufficient, and that
that he had no need to look out for farther Affistance or Direction : On the contrary, it was sent to inform him where he might seek and find a proper Instructor. St. Peter had also a Vifion to prepare him to do the Duty of an Apostle to the Gentile Centurion: and, when this devout Man came to him, in obedience to the heavenly Warning, ' he instructs him in the Faith of Christ Jesus and baptizes him with Water: Upon which St. Peter says, he finds that Men of all Nations, who do righteoufly, are accepted with God. He could not poffibly mean, iThatthose who did their best upon the Light of Nature, had no need of any other Teacher: That Reflection could never rise from the Ca-se before' him 3 For why did he then instruct Cornelius in the Knowledge of Christ, and baptize him in his Name? St. Peter therefore certainly meant, That all Gentiles duly prepared were capable of the Bleffings .v of the Gospel through the Mercy of God; in opþosition to his former Error, that none but 'je-ws had such a Privilege. And the Apostle undoubtedly understood that the best of; thei Gen'tilctes- had need of the Gospel ; . or else his 'Commendatitm of the Goodness 0£God amounts to this only, That he perceivedsithat God would give to the honestminded

The spectacular Champagne Pool is a magnificent example of the vibrant colours caused by mineral and silicate interference. CO2 rises from the deep spring, while heavy metal sulphides form a brilliant orange ring from precipitation at the edges. The pool spills over a beautiful waterfall and trickles over the surface of Primrose Terrace towards Bridal Veil Falls.
