ADVENT II
ADVENT I - ABBOT PAUL ON ADVENT
This is a Russian Orthodox choir singing about the Annunciation, surely an Advent theme.
The next two videos show Pope Benedict XVI presiding at First Vespers (Saturday evening) on the First Sunday of Advent last year.
A Gregorian chant from Advent.
The next two videos are from the Greek Catholic parish of St Elias in Toronto, one of the Cherubic Hymn and the other another chant from the celebration of Advent in that parish. The Eastern pre-Christmas fast lasts forty days and thus begins on November 15th, while the Latin Rite celebrates the last four Sundays before Christmas.
This is the celebration of Advent from Bethlehem:
Here are Bishop Fulton Sheen's reflections on the first week of Advent.
We are fallen | December 4
God certainly did not create us this way. We are fallen. All the facts support this view. There is a voice inside our moral conscience that tells us that our immoral and unmoral acts are abnormal. They ought not to be there. There's something wrong with us, something dislocated. God did not make us one way. Or rather, he did make us one way. And we have made ourselves, in virtue of our freedom, in other ways. He wrote the drama; we changed the plot. We are not jut animals that failed to evolve into humans. We are humans who have rebelled against the divine. If we are riddles to ourselves, we are not to put the blame on God or on evolution. But we are to put the blame on ourselves. We are not just a mass of corruption, but we bear within ourselves the image of God. We are very much like a man who has fallen into a well. We ought not to be there, and yet we cannot get out. We are sick; we need healing; we need deliverance; we need liberation, and we know very well that we cannot give this liberation and this freedom to ourselves. We are like a fish on top of the Empire State Building. Somehow or another we are outside of our environment. We cannot swim back into the stream. Someone has to put us back.
Eternity | December 5
Why must heaven be outside of time? Simply because none of us would want an endless existence on this earth. If it were possible for us to live four hundred years with some kind of vitamin, do you think that we would all swallow them? There would certainly come one moment in our existence when we would want to die. Have you ever been in any one place on this earth that you were absolutely sure would be one in which you would want to spend every day of your life? It is not very likely. The mere extension of time to most of us would probably be a curse instead of a blessing. Then, too, have you ever noticed that your happiest moments have come when eternity almost seems to get inside of your soul? All great inspirations are timeless, and that gives us some suggestion of heaven. Mozart was once asked when he received his inspirations for his great music. He said he saw them all at once in a great heat, a great warmth, a great light. Then there came the succession of notes. So it is in writing a speech. When I prepare a talk, or a telecast, or a book, there comes a moment when the end is seen at the beginning. One cannot write fast enough. There comes to everyone, whether he is good or bad, some dim intimations of immortality such as Wordsworth wrote about. There are, however, men who try to immunize themselves from these thoughts of eternity. They put on a kind of God-proof raincoat, so that the drops of his grace will not get through to them. They shut out eternity.
Heaven is in here | December 6
Too often we think of heaven as being way out there. We draw all kinds of pictures about heaven. Most of them are quite unreal, and because we think of heaven, and even hell, as something that happens to us at the end of time, we keep on postponing it. As a matter of fact, heaven is not way out there; heaven is in here. Hell is not way down there; hell could be inside of a soul. There is no such thing as dying and then going to heaven, or dying and going to hell. You are in heaven already; you are in hell already. I have met people who are in hell. I am sure you have too. I have also seen people with heaven in them. If you ever want to see heaven in a child, look at that child on the day of his first communion. If you want to see how much love is related to heaven, just look at the bride and groom at the altar on the day of the nuptial Mass. Heaven is there; heaven is there because love is there. I have seen heaven in a missionary nun who was spending herself among the lepers.
Sometimes you see a virtuous young person and you see heaven there. The beauty of such a person is not put on the outside, it is a kind of imprisoned loveliness that comes from within, as if it were breaking down the bars of flesh in order to find some outward utterance.
A man who wanted to go to hell | December 7
I remember once attending a man in a hospital. When I asked him to make his peace with God he said, "I suppose you're going to tell me I'm going to hell."
"No," I said, "I'm not."
"Well," he said, "I want to go to hell."
I replied, "I have never in my life met a man who wanted to go to hell, so I think I will just sit here and watch you go." Of course, I did not intend to let time pass without doing something, but I was absolutely sure that if he had a few minutes to himself, he might change his point of view. So I sat alone with him for twenty minutes. I could see him going through a kind of soul struggle.
Then he said to me, "You really believe there is a hell?"
I asked him, "Do you feel unhappy on the inside? Are you fearful? Is there dread, anxiety? Are all the evil things of your life coming up before you as a specter, a ghost?" Well, it was not long until he made his peace with God.
Why the virgin birth? | December 8
Our human nature was very much like a polluted stream up until the Incarnation. Imagine a ship, for example, sailing in polluted waters. It wishes to sail in clear waters, but without the pollution coming from one into the other. How could the transfer of the ship be made except by a lock? So the ship in the foul waters would be put into a lock where there would be a separation of waters, then the ship would be raised to the level of the unpolluted waters. Now the Immaculate Conception and the virgin birth were that lock. The pollution stopped because there was no union of man and woman. It was simply woman alone who gave a human nature to Christ and began the new humanity.
Heaven grows in us | December 9
Heaven is very close to us because heaven is related to a good life in much the same way that an acorn is related to an oak. An acorn is bound to become an oak. He who does not have heaven in his heart now will never go to heaven, and he who has hell in his heart when he dies will go to hell. We must not think that heaven is related to a good life in the same way a gold medal is related to study. Because a gold medal need not follow study. It is purely extrinsic to study. Rather, heaven is related to a good and virtuous life in just the same way that knowledge is related to study. One necessarily follows the other. Hell is not related to an evil life in the same way that spanking is related to an act of disobedience. Spanking need not follow an act of disobedience. As a matter of fact, it rarely follows disobedience today. Rather, it is related in the same way that corruption is related to death. One necessarily follows the other. Therefore, heaven is not just a long way off, we are not to postpone it. It is here. That is to say, it begins here.
Like the Israelites in the desert | December l0
Heaven starts here, but it doesn't end here. We just get faint glimpses of it now and then. If we postpone the thought of heaven until the moment we die, we will be very much like the Israelites during their wanderings in the desert. They were at one time within about eleven days of the promised land. It took only three weeks for them to make the journey from Egypt to the promised land, but because of their disobedience, their failures, their backsliding, and their rebellion against Moses, it took them forty years to get into the promised land. That forty years represents a pilgrimage in the lives of most of us. We make progress, and then we slip back. Thank heavens we have a merciful Lord who puts up with us and forgives us seventy times seven. Therefore, time is necessary in order to gain heaven, but the lapse of time itself does not bring me to heaven. What brings me to heaven is how I live, how I die.
Taken from HOMILY SIX – TO ENCOURAGE FASTING
by Saint Gregory Palamas
(INCLUDING A BRIEF WORD ON THE ORIGIN OF THE WORLD)
THE INVISIBLE SERPENT, the originator of evil, is inventive, versatile and extremely skillful in contriving wickedness. He has means to hinder our good purposes and actions as soon as they begin. But if he fails to prevent them initially, he sets up other devices by which he can render them useless once they are underway. If he is unable to make them worthless when they are half way to completion, he knows other tricks and ways to invalidate them even once they are finished, and makes them a source not of reward but of harm to all but the most careful. First of all he points out how laborious and difficult to accomplish virtue is. In this way he fills us with laziness and despair, as though we were attempting difficult and impossible things and were therefore incapable of putting our intentions into action. Then he engenders disbelief in the rewards which God has promised to those who struggle.
2. But we, brethren, should rise above this trap by our soul's courage, eagerness and faith. We should bear in mind the fact that just as the earth cannot yield worthwhile fruit without labor, so the soul cannot acquire anything which pleases God or leads to salvation without spiritual struggles. But while it is possible to find earth which is unsuitable for cultivation, every human soul is naturally suited to virtue. As we are all unavoidably condemned, however, by the judgment given against our forefather, to live by labor and toil, let us turn necessity into an honor and willingly offer to God what is ours not by our own will. Let us give up transitory things in exchange for things that endure, and receive what is beneficial in exchange for what is harmful, transforming short-lived toil into a means to gain eternal ease. If we labor here for the sake of virtue we shall certainly attain to the rest promised in the age to come. He who promised is trustworthy and is at hand to help all who readily take on the struggle for virtue. If He who can do all things gives us His help, is anything impossible to achieve?
3. When we remember this and eagerly apply ourselves to virtuous actions, the evil one, knowing that nothing can be good unless it is done in a good way, strives to persuade us not to accomplish any good work with the object of pleasing God or of winning His approval, but to look for other people's approval. By this means he can deprive us of our reward from God and of all spiritual and heavenly honors. Let us frustrate these efforts of his by considering the great recompense stored up for those who live as God pleases, and how insignificant other people's approval is. Not only is it not worth mentioning in comparison with the great and holy glory to come, but it is also insufficient reason to neglect and waste our flesh.
4. Even after suffering this defeat, the originator of evil undermined us with pride, the last and worst abyss. He suggests conceited thoughts and persuades us to boast as though we had managed to be virtuous through our own ability and intelligence. But let us remember that the Truth says, "Without me ye can do nothing" (John 15:5), and fend off all the evil one's schemes. Let us do good works in a good way, with appropriate humility. If someone has a jar of precious perfume, whether he pours it out on to dung, or pours dung into the jar, he ruins and destroys the perfume. Be aware that, in the same way, whether someone rejects and discards virtue by his inaction, or mixes evil with his virtuous actions, he equally ruins and destroys virtue.
5. I am speaking to your charity on this subject in this present season of fasting, so that we may observe it together for our own sake unalloyed with anything evil. Fasting was of no benefit to that Pharisee in the Gospel, even though he always fasted two days a Week, because he had adulterated it with pride and condemnation of his neighbor (Luke 18:11-12). Not that this means fasting is unprofitable. Moses, Elijah and the Lord Himself showed how beneficial it is for those who fast properly in a way pleasing to God.
6. Moses fasted for many days. Awaken your minds, I entreat You, and lift them up at this opportune time, in company with Moses when he went up the mountain towards God. In this way may you start off afresh on your ascent, and be lifted up together with Christ, who did not merely go up a mountain but up to heaven, taking us with Him. Moses fasted for forty days on the mountain and according to the Scriptures he saw God, not darkly but face to face (Exod. 24:18). He talked to Him as someone would speak to his friend (Exod. 33:11, Deut. 34:10). He learnt from God and taught everyone about Him: that He is He Who eternally Is (Exod. 3:14) and will never cease to be, that He summoned what did not exist into existence, brought all things out of non-being and will not let them fall back into non-existence. In the beginning He brought the whole visible creation out of nothing all at once, just by a nod and His will. "In the beginning", it says, "God created the heaven and the earth" (Gen. i:i), not empty of course, nor without all that lies between them. The earth was interspersed with water, and both were full of air, animals and plants of various kinds, whereas the heavens were full of the various lights and fires, from which the universe is formed.
7. So then, "in the beginning God made heaven and earth", as matter able to endure anything and strong enough to bear everything, rightly thereby dealing a blow from a distance to those who falsely hold that matter existed independently beforehand. Then He developed the world and embellished it. In six days He assigned to each of His creatures which made up His world its own due order. By His command alone He made the distinction between things, as if He were drawing out different kinds of treasure stored up in secret. He disposed and composed all things in complete natural harmony between themselves, each in relation to all, and all in relation to each. He surrounded the motionless earth, as a central point, with the higher circle of the perpetually moving heavens, holding them it, place by means of what lies between, all according to His wisdom, that the universe might stay stable while in motion. When the heavenly bodies all around were moving unceasingly and at great speed, the motionless earth had of necessity to take its place at the centre, its stability counterbalancing the motion, test the sphere of the universe roll off its course.
8. When the great Craftsman had assigned to each of the two boundaries of the universe its place, He made fast and set in motion this whole orderly world. He allotted to everything between heaven and earth its own properties. Some of His works He placed aloft and ordered them to move along a high course, going round at the same time as the upper boundary of the universe with beautiful regularity for ever. Such heavenly bodies are light, highly active and can be turned to the advantage of what lies below. They are wisely set very high above the central point so that, turning all around, they can sufficiently disperse the earth's excessive coldness, while their own extreme heat is contained in its place. In a way they can also restrain the excessive speed of the upper heavenly limits by themselves moving in the other direction, and they keep these limits in place by their counterbalancing orbit. They provide us with the great benefits of distinct annual seasons, a means of measuring periods of time and, to those who are able to understand, knowledge of God who created, arranged and ordered them.
9. So some of His works He set spinning and dancing round in mid-air in the upper regions, both for the sake of the world's beauty and to bestow a variety of benefits. Others, those which are heavy and have a passible nature, he put low down round the center. By their nature they come into being and pass away, are distinguishable from, yet comparable with, one another. When they suffer change they become more serviceable. He laid down an order for those creatures and how they relate to each other, that the whole might truly be called a world of perfect order.
10. At the creation first one thing was brought into existence, then another, then another and so on in turn. Last of all came man (Gen. 1:26), who was worthy of God's greater honor and consideration both before and after his creation. All the visible world was made before him for his sake. Immediately after the foundation of the world, before he existed, the kingdom of heaven was made ready for him. A divine Counsel concerning him preceded him, and he was created by God's hand and in His image. He did not take his whole being from matter or the visible world, like the other living creatures did, but only his body. His soul he took from the heavenly realms, from God Himself when He breathed fife into him in a way that defies description (Gen. 2:7). Man was a great wonder surpassing all else, towering above everything, superior to all. Man was capable of knowing God, as well as receiving Him and declaring Iiim, and was most certainly the highest achievement of the Creator's sublime majesty. He had paradise for his home, specially planted by God (Gen. 2:8ff). There it was his lot to have sight of God, speak to Him face to face and receive a counsel and commandment from Him concerning the fasting appropriate to that place (Gen. 2:16-17). If he kept and observed this, he would remain free from death, toil and pain for ever.
11. Alas, he chose the treason of the serpent, the originator of evil, in preference to this commandment and counsel, and broke the decreed fast. Instead of eternal life he received death and instead of the place of unsullied joy he received this sinful place full of passions and misfortunes, or rather, he was sentenced to Hades and nether darkness. Our nature would have stayed in the infernal regions below the lurking places of the serpent who initially beguiled it, had not Christ come. He started off by fasting (Matt. 4:2, Luke 4:2, cf. Mark 1: 13) and in the end abolished the serpent's tyranny, set us free and brought us back to life, as Moses foretold (Deut. 18:15, 18-19, Acts 3:22; 7:37). After fasting on the mountain Moses received tablets, the work of God (Exod. 31:18), and later received again, on a second set of tablets, the law written by the finger of God (Exod. 34:1-4). He instructed the holy nation in the law and by his work he hinted at, and showed a glimpse of, Christ's future ministry. As Moses appeared as the liberator and savior of Abraham's race, so later Christ did the same for the whole human race.
12. Elijah, when he too had fasted forty days (I Kgs. 19:8), saw the Lord on the mountain, not in fire, as the elders of Israel had earlier (Exod. 24:9-10, Deut. 5:23), but passing beyond the fiery vision by his God-pleasing fast, he saw the Lord in the sound of a light passing breeze (I Kgs. 19:12 LXX). He had approached more closely to our Lord's words, "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth" (John 4:24). For the sound prefigured the Truth and the preaching of Him who is Truth Itself, which rang out round all the ends of the earth, and the passing breeze prefigured the Spirit and grace.
13. From this vision while fasting Elijah also received power to anoint a prophet in his stead and bestow upon him a double portion of the grace he possessed, and to mount up above the earth in mid-air (2 Kgs. 2:9-11). This pointed clearly towards Christ's ascension from earth to heaven which was to happen later (Acts 1:9-11). While Christ Himself was fasting in the wilderness, He defeated our tempter by force and took away his power against mankind (Matt. 4:1-11, Mark 1:13, cf. Luke 4:1-13). Having at last put down his tyranny, he set our nature free and handed him over for sport to all those willing to live according to His Gospel. In this way He fulfilled the words of the prophets and by His works inscribed grace and truth upon the symbolic events which took place in ancient times.
14. You see the benefits of fasting, and how it has made us worthy of so many great gifts? Even from its opposite, unlimited eating and self-indulgence, it is possible to see the advantage of fasting. For the last two weeks our city was given over to gluttony and lack of self-restraint, and straight away we had troubles, shouting, fights, disturbances, shameless songs and obscene laughter. But this week when the fast came it made everything more honorable. It took us away from frivolity's expensive cares, stopped us tolling for the sake of our useless stomachs, set us instead to works of repentance and persuaded us not to labor for the food which perishes but for the food which endures to eternal life.
15. Where now are the slaughter of animals, the aroma of roasting meat, the variety of sauces and the cooks' best endeavors? Where are the men who run around the streets and pollute the air with their impure voices? Where are those who beat the drum and make music around houses and tables, and their devotees who join in with applause and eat their fill of the food set before them to the accompaniment of kettledrums and flutes? Where are those who spend their days and nights at parties, who are always looking for places to drink, who keep each other company in drunkenness and the shameful acts that result from it? Once the fast was proclaimed all these evils went away and all things good took their place. Instead of disgusting songs, mouths now sing holy psalms. Instead of obscene laughter, there is salutary sorrow and tears. Instead of undisciplined outings and wanderings, everyone takes one and the same way to Christ's Holy Church. If unlimited eating produces a dense swarm of sins, fasting is the root of all virtues and the foundation of God's commandments.
16. Lack of self-control is actually an evil both ancient and modern, though it did not precede its antidote, fasting. By means of our forefathers' self-indulgence in paradise and their contempt for the fast already in existence there, death entered the world. Sin reigned and brought in the condemnation of our nature from Adam until Christ.
The flood covered the whole earth because of the self-indulgence of Adam's descendants in this world of ours and their disdain for the chastity which came before. In those days God said to Noah, "My Spirit shall not abide in these men, for they are flesh" (cf. Gen. 6:3 LXX). The deeds of those who are flesh are none other than unlimited eating, drunkenness, sensual pleasure and the evils that spring from them. Because of the abominable depravity and self-indulgence among the men of Sodom, fire fell on them from heaven (Gen. 19:24). "Behold", says the prophet Ezekiel, "this was the iniquity of the men of Sodom, in fulness of bread they committed abomination" (cf. Ezek. 16:49-50). By means of this abomination, ignoring human nature they fell into unnatural unions. What deprived Esau, Isaac's firstborn, of his birthright and his father's blessing? Of course it was lasciviousness and an unreasonable demand for food (Gen. 25:25-34; 26:34-35, Heb. 12:16). Why were Eli's sons condemned to death, and why did he meet a violent death at the news of the death of his children, whom he had not disciplined with proper care? Surely it was because they took the meat from the cauldrons before the time and used it (1 Sam. 2:12-17; 4:11, 17-18). Also, the whole Hebrew nation, while Moses was fasting on the mountain for their sake, were indulging themselves to their own detriment. They ate and drank and rose up to play, as the Scripture says (Exod. 32:6), and their sport was worshipping an idol, for it was then that the incidents surrounding the fashioning of the calf took place among them.
17. Sensual pleasure causes ungodliness as well as sin, but fasting and self-control result in the fear of God as well as virtue. Fasting must be accompanied by self-control. Why? Because eating our fill, even of humble foods, is a hindrance to the purifying mourning, godly sorrow and contrition in our souls, which bring about unswerving repentance leading to salvation. For without a contrite heart we cannot really lay hold of repentance. It is the restriction of self-indulgence, sleep and the senses according to God's will that crushes our hearts and makes us mourn for our sins.
18. When that rich man in the Gospel said to himself, "Eat, drink and be merry" (Luke 12:19), the wretch made himself fit for the eternal flames and unfit for this present life. Let us, on the contrary, brethren, tell ourselves to be temperate, to fast, to keep watch, to be restrained, to be humble and to suffer hardship for our salvation. Then we shall finish this present life in a good way pleasing to God and inherit the blessed life without end.
19. May we all attain to this by the grace and love towards mankind of our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom belong glory, might, honor and worship, together with I lis Father without beginning and the life-giving Spirit, now and for ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen

17,000 signed our petition for the survival of the 27 EC Natura 2000 Protected Areas of Greece in general, and for the protection of the endangered loggerhead sea turtle(Caretta Caretta) on the island of Zakynthos in particular. Thank you very much for your support – your participation showed that it is not only environmental NGOs caring about Greece's nature, but people all over the world!
With both the nesting period and the tourist season imminent in Laganas Bay, EURONATUR and MEDASSET jointly delivered their 17,000 signature petition with cover letter by hand to the private office of the Greek Prime Minister Kostas Karamalis on 10th March, expressing intense concern and indignation not only about the future of the National Marine Park of Zakynthos, but also about the other EC "Natura 2000" Protected Areas in Greece.
So far, we have not received any acknowledgement or reply from the Greek government concerning this issue. While the imposition of a heavy fine from the European Court of Justice "knocks at the gates" due to non-implementation of appropriate measures to protect the endangered loggerhead sea turtle on Zakynthos, the Ministry of Environment has finally taken some action and – after more than 6 months - appointed a new President for the National Marine Park of Zakynthos. Even before the new President takes up his appointment controversy rages in the newspapers over his suitability for the position.
THANK YOU ONCE MORE FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
or non-existent and cannot be considered effective.
in general and of the loggerhead sea turtles on the island of Zakynthos in particular.
The nomination of a new President of the National Marine Park of Zakynthos is a first step towards the protection of the loggerhead sea turtles during the nesting period and tourist season. Still, in order to ensure the sound protection of the loggerhead sea turtle, immediate measures have to be taken.
the European Court of Justice in case c-103/00.
All of these measures should have been accomplished before the start of the season but so far, nobody - neither local, national nor international authorities – feel responsible to do so.
Apart from this, the wages and salaries of the 2003/4 beach guards and ZNMP staff that are still owed and the overdue social security payments, telephone bills, electricity, and penalties, all owing since 2003 have to be paid to clear the Park of any debts that might affect future operations.
The Greek government must provide long-term political commitment to guarantee yearly funding for all 27 Greek National Parks.
The Greek Government must provide Parks with the legal authority to enforce conservation laws and regulations within the Parks' boundaries.
The Government must implement a long-term commitment to make all twenty-five National Park Management Bodies viable with immediate effect, including the creation of administrative structures within the government that will enable the Ministry of Environment to support the Parks.
Prime Minister, I again call on you to personally intervene, to ensure the effective operation of the NMPZ and the other 26 "Protected Areas" that together constitute part of our common heritage.

I say that should be safe. So what could cause the crash?
It looks like either the billing service didn't start or the service was disconnected, since the variable for the service (mService) is the thing that is null here.
Is there any way I can test if the 'billing service' has started with code in Stencyl?
It looks like the crash point can't be reached if the service hasn't started yet. Assuming that is true, I see only two points where mService is set to null. The first is the onServiceDisconnected callback. I'm not sure what circumstances that would be called in but if it's called as part of Google's testing then that could be the problem as it doesn't prevent you from trying to use purchase blocks. The second point is the dispose function which is handled on Stencyl's end, and I'm not sure when that is triggered.
A related sidenote: It seems like the 'if player can make purchases' bool is always false on iOS. So I had to take away the 'if player can make purchases' bool on iOS, to have the iOS version working.
So purchasesAreInitialized() is not consistent on both Android and iOS, that may be good to know.
Been getting the same errors which was raising my android crash rate. Although I won't be able to test since I can't replicate it on my device.

Sklarczyk Seed Farm Earns 2019 'Ag Exporter of the Year' Award
Agency: Agriculture and Rural Development
Media Contact: Jessy Sielski, 517-284-5725
Program Contact: Jamie Zmitko-Somers, 517-284-5738
LANSING - The Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD) has awarded Sklarczyk Seed Farm of Johannesburg, Michigan, with the 2019 Michigan Agriculture Exporter of the Year Award.
"We're very proud to recognize Sklarczyk Seed Farm with this award," said MDARD Director Gary McDowell. "Not only is this a homegrown, generational operation run by a great family and supported by an incredible team, but it's also a model for how Michigan's food and agriculture businesses continue to adapt and evolve with an ever-changing, global market."
The company's beginnings go as far back as 1942 when Ben Sklarczyk's grandparents, Michael and Theresa, purchased a farm in Johannesburg, Michigan, and began growing potatoes. However, Michael and Theresa saw a growing demand for potato seeds in the market, and so the farm became a seed farm.
In 1982, the Sklarczyks understood that the future of the potato industry would be in greenhouse grown seed potatoes, and from that point on, the farm began producing high-quality potato tubers (a thickened underground part of a stem bearing buds from which new plants arise). Today, Ben, his wife Alison, and their team, produce nearly six million tubers hydroponically every year, and 100 percent of their production is grown in Michigan.
In 2001, SSF began export operations, and from 2016 to 2018 their exports increased by more than 16 percent. Today, more than 41 percent of their total product was exported to countries such as Canada, Egypt, Chile, Thailand, Germany, and Brazil. As a result of this growth, three new jobs were created at SSF.
"We are honored to be the recipient of the 2019 Ag Exporter of the Year award," said Ben Sklarczyk, current CEO of Sklarczyk Seed Farm. "As a boy growing up around our operation, I never dreamed SSF would have a worldwide impact on the potato industry. Today I greatly value the customer relationships we have formed and the team we have at SSF, which helps grow some of the best seed potatoes in the world."
The award review committee consisted of representatives from Michigan State University; Michigan Farm Bureau; Comerica Bank; Foster, Swift, Collins & Smith P.C.; and the Van Andel Global Trade Center. The decision was made based on export growth in the past three years, job creation from exporting, and ability to enter new markets.
To be eligible for this award, more than 50 percent of a company's product must be grown and produced in Michigan, and exports must have contributed a substantial amount to a company's overall growth.

Date of Crime
Dauphin County, PA Smith & Bradfield June 24, 1979
Dr. Jay C. Smith was sentenced to death in 1985 for the 1979 murders of Susan Reinert and her two children. Smith was the principal of Upper Merion High School (in Montgomery County) for 12 years and Reinert was a teacher there. Reinert's fiancé, William Bradfield, was also a teacher at the same school as well as president of the Teacher's Union. Bradfield was convicted in 1983 of conspiracy to murder Reinert and her children as he was named beneficiary of Reinert's life insurance.
Reinert was last seen alive driving away from her Ardmore home with her two children at 9:20 p.m. on Friday, June 22, 1979. Her dead body was found in her car in a Harrisburg parking lot the following Monday morning. Her two missing children are presumed dead. An autopsy revealed she was badly beaten 24 to 36 hours before her death and that she died early Sunday morning from an injection of morphine. It also revealed that she had sand between her toes implying she could have visited a beach area like Cape May, NJ. In addition, she had written directions on her to an area just north of Cape May. Cape May is approximately 100 miles southeast of Reinert's home, while Harrisburg is approximately 100 miles west.
Bradfield had an alibi from 11:15 p.m. Friday on, when he got together with three friends, reputable high school teachers, and left with them, spending the weekend in Cape May, NJ. The prosecution did not believe that he could have traveled to Harrisburg during this period and it was alleged that Bradfield had employed Smith as Reinert's killer.
Smith was convicted of murdering Reinert and her two children in 1985. At Smith's trial, the prosecutor did not call Bradfield as a witness, but instead called a series of witnesses who recounted their recollections of what Bradfield said. The judge allowed this hearsay testimony after the prosecutor assured him that the state attorney general found that such testimony was allowed under the law. A jailhouse informant, who had been imprisoned for perjury, claimed that Smith had confessed to the crime. This informant was wired with a hidden recording device, but on every recording in which the informant brought up the subject with Smith, Smith stated that he had nothing to do with the Reinert murders.
The PA Supreme Court overturned Smith's conviction in 1992 because the judge permitted hearsay testimony, the police withheld evidence that sand was found between Reinert's toes, and five state troopers perjured themselves on this point. The troopers did not want Smith's jury to hear about the sand as it allowed the defense to argue that Reinert had been in Cape May and that Bradfield had personally killed her. The Court found the prosecution's conduct so egregious that it broke new legal ground and barred a retrial.
The chief case investigator, Trooper John J. Holtz, was later found to have accepted $50,000 from author Joseph Wambaugh for information on the Reinert investigation. The money was provided on the condition that suspect Jay Smith be arrested.
Smith's exoneration should have undermined Bradfield's conspiracy conviction on the basis of insufficient evidence. At Bradfield's trial, there was no direct evidence that he conspired with Smith, but without Smith, there is not even circumstantial evidence that he conspired with anyone.
Despite his excellent alibi, evidence suggests that Bradfield orchestrated Reinert's murder and tried to frame Smith for it. Bradfield had warned associates that the evil Dr. Smith planned to kill Reinert for some time before the murder. Smith was previously convicted of robbing a Sears store by posing as an armored car driver to collect the day's receipts. Smith was due to be sentenced and imprisoned the same day and in the same city that Reinert's body was found, so it seemed that Bradfield used his last opportunity to kill Reinert and throw suspicion on Smith. It seems doubtful that Smith, who had no motive for killing Reinert, would drive her car with her dead body to Harrisburg, then return home and drive his own car to his sentencing.
Bradfield died in prison in 1998. The case is the subject of three books, Echoes in the Darkness by Joseph Wambaugh (1987), Engaged to Murder by a Philadelphia Inquirer editor (1988), and Principal Suspect by Smith's trial and appeal attorney (1996). The case was also the subject of a TV mini-series. [1/06]

El Hudson Commodore es un automóvil que fue producido por la Hudson Motor Car Company de Detroit (Míchigan) entre 1941 y 1952. Durante su período de producción, el Commodore fue el modelo más grande y más lujoso de la marca.

Primera generación

1941
Los nombres Commodore y Commodore Custom aparecieron en la gama de modelos Hudson de 1941. Los Commodore se montaban exclusivamente con una distancia entre ejes de , mientras que en los Commodore Custom la distancia entre ejes podía ser  propia de los cupés o de  propia de los sedanes de compañía. El Commodore era impulsado por un motor de seis cilindros en línea Hudson de  que rendía , o por un motor de ocho cilindros en línea Hudson de  que entregaba .

En su año de aparición, la serie Commodore componía la gama de modelos más grandes de Hudson, y constaba de sedanes, cupés y convertibles. Hudson usó un capó con bisagras hacia adelante, que se abría desde la parte trasera (junto al parabrisas), deslizando el extremo delantero del capó hacia abajo sobre la rejilla. Los elementos del interior y el exterior fueron diseñados por Betty Thatcher, "la primera diseñadora empleada por un fabricante de automóviles".

1942
En 1942 los coches recibieron un lavado de cara. Esto incluía estribos ocultos, rejillas delanteras moderadamente agrandadas y arreglos de molduras externas. Hudson ofreció un embrague asistido por vacío "Drive-Master" opcional y una transmisión servo operada con tres modos: cambio y embrague "automático", embrague automático solamente o totalmente manual.

La empresa promocionó su economía por encima del lujo durante el año acortado del modelo, que terminó en enero de 1942 cuando se aceleró la producción de guerra de los Estados Unidos.

Segunda generación

1946

Hudson comenzó su producción de automóviles de posguerra el 30 de agosto de 1945. Los estilos de carrocería se recortaron a Sedán, Club Cupé y Convertible. Los diseños se basaron en los modelos de 1942. Hubo cambios cosméticos menores de las versiones anteriores a la guerra con una excepción: la parrilla del automóvil ahora tenía una sección central cóncava.

Los automóviles Hudson estaban más equipados que las marcas de la competencia, y todos los modelos disponían de reposabrazos en las puertas, bocinas gemelas, ceniceros, limpiaparabrisas, luces de freno, guantera con cerradura, faros de luz sellados y alfombras de pelo largo. Los Commodore y los Commodore Custom agregaron a los cojines de asiento espuma de poliuretano (Hudson fue el primer fabricante de automóviles en introducir cojines de asiento de espuma), luces de cortesía en los escalones de las puertas, reposabrazos traseros (sedanes) y letras doradas en el panel del tablero.

1947
La producción del Hudson Commodore Eight de 1947 aumentó a 12.593 desde las 8.193 del año anterior.

Tercera generación

1948
Introducido en diciembre de 1947, el Hudson Commodore de aquel año fue uno de los primeros automóviles de posguerra de nuevo diseño fabricados. El modelo del año 1948 inauguró el sistema de construcción patentado Monobuilt (de una pieza) de Hudson. Los nuevos modelos fueron diseñados por Frank Spring.

Los coches tenían una carrocería semi unitaria, ligera pero resistente, con un marco perimetral, lo que facilitaba el acceso de los pasajeros al vehículo. El diseño de Hudson hizo que la carrocería fuera más baja que la de los coches contemporáneos, y ofrecía a los pasajeros la seguridad de estar rodeados por el chasis del automóvil con un centro de gravedad más bajo. Además de la seguridad adicional,este diseño también permitió a Hudson ahorrar peso gracias a la construcción monobloque, obteniendo un automóvil de buen rendimiento. Los coches presentaban carrocerías con superficies laterales continuas y guardabarros totalmente integrados. Los Brougham y los sedanes eran fastback. Una línea cromada recorría la carrocería de adelante hacia atrás, rebajando aún más el automóvil visualmente, por lo que "el nuevo Hudson parecía un automóvil de ensueño traído directamente del salón del automóvil".

En 1948, los Commodore estaban disponibles con motores de 6 o de 8 cilindros en línea. Los interiores estaban tapizados con paño fino en los sedanes y con cuero en los descapotables. Nuevamente, Hudson continuó brindando numerosas características estándar que otros fabricantes clasificaron como opciones de pago. La producción del Commodore Eight se elevó a 35.315 unidades.

1949

En 1949, la línea Commodore se amplió para incluir los modelos Custom más lujosos. Como promoción publicitaria, Hudson hizo que especialistas en plásticos construyeran modelos transparentes del sedán Commodore Eight para mostrar y promocionar el diseño y la construcción de sus coches.

1950

Solo hubo cambios de equipamiento exterior en los modelos de años sucesivos. Un nuevo modelo convertible, el Custom Commodore debutó a mediados de abril de 1950.

1951
En 1951, Hudson introdujo un nuevo motor de seis cilindros en línea y ofreció la transmisión Hydramatic de General Motors como opción. Se rediseñó la parrilla, pasándose de una forma bastante rectangular a una forma ovalada, un diseño que se prolongaría hasta 1953. La parrilla se rediseñaría nuevamente en 1954, el último año del famoso estilo aerodinámico de la carrocería Hudson utilizada desde 1948 a 1954.

1952

En su último año en 1952, el Commodore se dividió en una serie de seis cilindros y en una serie de ocho. El exterior recibió otro cambio de acabado, pero a finales de 1953, el estilo de línea baja ("step-down") comenzaba a parecer obsoleto. En lugar de rediseñar los Hudson de la gama alta, el presidente de la compañía, A. E. Barit, siguió adelante con el plan de la empresa para el producir el modelo compacto denominado "Jet".

A partir de 1953, Hudson presentaría solo las líneas Hudson Hornet y Hudson Wasp e introduciría la desafortunada línea de automóviles compactos Hudson Jet.

1957 Modelo de Exhibición
Tras la fusión de Hudson con Nash para formar American Motors Corporation (AMC) en 1954, la producción de automóviles de Hudson se trasladó a las instalaciones de AMC en Kenosha. Después de un ejercicio débil para los modelos del año 1955, AMC decidió ceder el contrato de estilo de Hudson a Richard Arbib, quien creó un nuevo aspecto para la línea Hudson basado en lo que denominó estilo "V-Line". La medida no logró atraer nuevos clientes a Hudson, y la producción cayó por debajo del desastroso resultado de 1955.

En su último año, la marca Hudson se redujo a un solo modelo, el Hudson Hornet con dos niveles de equipamiento, el Custom de nivel superior y el Super. Sin embargo, durante la temporada de coches de exhibición, AMC presentó un único automóvil de exhibición Hudson Commodore en 1957, que era idéntico al Hornet de producción, pero que presentaba adornos exteriores dorados y una tapicería especial.

Rising redshirt senior Kerry Blackshear has decided to enter his name in the 2019 NBA Draft, as well as the transfer portal. He could also remain at Virginia Tech for his final season of eligibility.
Blackshear averaged 14.9 points and 7.5 rebounds per game in 2018-19, and he was the team's top scorer and rebounder during the time Justin Robinson missed with a foot injury. He has already graduated, and would be eligible to play immediately at another school. He is currently not projected to be drafted, and he could decide to withdraw from the draft if he chooses.
Blackshear indicated in his message that he is still considering a return to Virginia Tech. New head coach Mike Young has met with his parents in Florida, and Blackshear's father told Mark Berman of The Roanoke Times that Virginia Tech is still "at the top of his list." Click here to read the whole article.
It's still possible that Blackshear, junior guard Wabissa Bede and redshirt freshman guard/forward Landers Nolley could still return to the team. It's also possible that Emanuel Miller could request to be released from his letter-of-intent. He is a Canadian player, and he was recruited to Virginia Tech by former assistant coach and fellow Canadian Jamie McNeilly, who has since joined Buzz Williams at Texas A&M.
Besides attempting to hold onto players in the transfer portal and trying to convince former 2019 signee Anthony Harris to renew his commitment, Mike Young is in the process of identifying and recruiting new 2019 prospects, and is likely evaluating numerous graduate transfers as well. Virginia Tech's final 2019-20 roster is not close to being set.
Thanks for the years KBJ. Everyone left you, so do what makes you happy! I like your comment, the roster is not set. NCAA should investigate Buzzs assistants leaving to the place he just so happens to be going. Buzz was great for VT, but the way he left the program is just not right.
Assistants going with a departing coach is the rule, not the exception. It's not a violation in the slightest.
If Buzz was guaranteeing you your same spot as you write your next chapter……..wouldn't you roll the dice and follow him too?
Everyone has to do what they think is best for their future, not ours. Hope he stays, but if he doesn't, good luck.
I assume Radford and Palmer are also returning?
I don't get the mentality of those thinking he should leave. Would you have wanted to move for your last year of school. Screw that! I had friends and enjoyed my time in Blacksburg & years later I still enjoy my connection to the school. I darn sure would not have wanted to go to school for one year somewhere else unless I needed to move to continue my education. Kerry has been a pleasure to root for so whatever he decides, I wish him well but I hope he enjoyed his time in Blacksburg enough that he sticks around. Personally, I like everything I've learned about Coach Young & think he'd be a great guy to learn from & play for. I think there is a very high chance that Coach Young will be here for many years to come. If that turns out to be the case and I was athlete, I'd have a lot of pride knowing I was in that coaches first class.
I've argued that quite a few times, you'd have to up and re-settle somewhere, make new friends (dump your old ones?) go through the whole transfer credits stuff. just seems like a lot of work to get to the same place, plus the idea that maybe this wasn't home after all, just another stop on the road, don't you want a place to come back to?
Guy graduated and his friends are the team who's leaving too. I can't find an issue with any of the choices he has and he's smart to keep them all open. I'd guess he'll play for money be it via the draft or overseas but if someone he trusts says he'll get big money in 2020 if he plays a year of college ball somewhere else why not listen?
The world of college sports has changed, and dramatically at that. There aren't anymore Bruce Smiths – and Michael Vicks – who retain strong emotional attachments to the schools that gave them the opportunities they had. I can't blame KB for leaving, if he does. Next year will be tough.
It's not accurate to conflate our experiences as "normal" students with those of football or MBB players. They live in a bubble while at VT, and are relatively insulated from many of the things that a regular student experiences. Their teammates are their family. Their schedules are intimidating. And they are always under the microscope. I bet few have any friends outside the team or the athletic department. In KBJ's case, most of his friends are already gone. Why stay?
Would live for KJ to stay, but from a career dev standpoint it seems his best option is a 1 year stint somewhere where they are great with bigs.
Well, that wouldn't be at A&M.
KBJ has all the options open to him. He should be an agent.
Very smart move, IMO, and I wish KJ well. He has nothing to gain for playing with our Hokies next season. Take the transfer or go pro is the best he can do. Coach Young and our Hokies will have an awful season, unless CMY can find and get some quality transfers that have immediate playing time.
Don't think transfer is better that staying at vt.
I think it's a smart move too. Sheesh. It's like none of ya'll have ever interviewed at other jobs while keeping a job, yet because it's public, there's outcry.
Have to give KBJ credit for the way he's handling this. Kumah could have learned a thing or two about class.
I hope the coach can keep him around since he's a great player. I appreciate his contributions to the program and wish him well even if he goes to UVA …. I just threw up in my mouth!
Still think odds as good as not that he stays. Being very methodical about decision.
KB is handling it in a classy way.
You mean Miller, not Belmar I hope.
As much as I want him to stay, it seems like a sensible move on his part. Best of luck KBJ!

NCCP May 6, 2019
The National Council of Churches in the Philippines mourns and grieves with the people of Sri Lanka, especially to the families and loved ones of those who were affected by the bombings on Easter Sunday in eight (8) different areas in the country.
Among the places that were targeted by the coordinated explosions were three Christian churches during Easter Worship Service – a celebration of the Resurrected Christ.
According to news reports, the death toll rose up to 290 while there were 500 wounded. There were also 36 foreigners among those killed in the blasts.
We view these bombings as abominable acts of terror and utterly repugnant. They are attacks against the sanctity of life. They are acts of cowardice against innocent civilians and such acts are an affront to any faith or any religious group.
Some of the victims of the bombing were Christians. Last month there were also attacks against Muslims in New Zealand. In Pittsburgh, USA last year, the victims in a shooting were Jewish. We call on the churches and the religious community to pray and work in harmony with faith-based communities to end religious bigotry and sectarianism.
We lament and express our condolences to the people of Sri Lanka who suffered in the attacks. In prayer and in the spirit of solidarity, the NCCP will continue to walk side by side with Christian churches and, especially with the National Council of Churches in Sri Lanka and the wider ecumenical community and accompany them in this hour of grief–in the darkest time and worst violence Sri Lanka has experienced since its civil war.
We are one in condemning these atrocious attacks, and call for justice for lives and properties lost in this tragedy.
Christ who rose from the dead continues to remind us to rise up and spread peace, because we are sent in the world just like him. He was wrongfully accused and was killed, but he continues to rise up among the people. Once and again, we are called to steadfastly hold on to the promise of the Risen Christ, fulfilling the message of the resurrection event which abounds in hope, and believe that goodness will always triumph over evil even in this difficult juncture.
As people of faith, in the spirit of love, let us together end violence that harms our people. Let us continue to build bridges and create spaces for solidarity with those who need God the most.
Let us continue to embody the Risen Christ and the message of Peace in these devastating times of unpeace.

The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels
The Communist Manifesto, originally titled Manifesto of the Communist Party (German: Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei) is a short 1848 book written by the German Marxist political theorists Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. It has since been recognized as one of the world's most influential political manuscripts. Commissioned by the Communist League, it laid out the League's purposes and program. It presents an analytical approach to the class struggle (historical and present) and the problems of capitalism, rather than a prediction of communism's potential future forms.
The book contains Marx and Engels' Marxist theories about the nature of society and politics, that in their own words, "The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles." It also briefly features their ideas for how the capitalist society of the time would eventually be replaced by socialism, and then eventually communism.

British Minister for European Affairs Chris Bryan gave an interview to the Interfax news agency, where he explained the reluctance of Britain to impose visa-free regime with Russia.
In the interview, he stated that, despite long-standing and strong relations with Russia, Britain sees no reason to rush things in the visa regime, citing a lack of readiness of Russia to take this step.
"We have a longstanding relationship with Russia. And very strong trade links throughout the centuries. I think that there is a couple of difficult questions between us", – said Chris Bryan.
Between the reasons, he stated a high crime rate in Russia, a non-transparent economic system and the lack of guarantee of its stability and, consequently, investment in it. In addition, Britain is not satisfied with the approach to human rights and guarantees of freedom of speech.
"Many British have business in Russia, not only in the field of oil and gas. I am referring to Shell, BP and others. They work in other areas, there are law firms including. But there is a problem in Russia", – said Chris Bryan.
In addition, the Minister outlined that the UK does not share the optimism of Spain. "If the Spanish want to do it quickly, many more countries would like to do it much slower. And if Russia first settle all the issues with organized crime, in that case it will be much easier", – he explained.
However, in addition to Spain, Russia has other allies in the effort to abolish the visa regime. In early February, the Greek Prime Minister Georgios Papandreou said: "We firmly believe that it will substantially contribute to further strengthening the ties between citizens of EU member states and Russia's citizens," quoted ITAR-TASS.
Earlier, Foreign Minister Franco Frattini stated in an interview that to his opinion, a visa-free regime with Russia may be imposed in 2010 and recalled the new agreement of EU, whereby the right of veto was canceled and the principle of majority acts.
Russian experts cite a variety of possible terms of the abolition of visas between Russia and Europe: from one year to ten years.
In any case, experts are confident that this will not hinder relations between the countries to develop, and visas to Russia for foreign visitors will be issued quickly and easily.
