One thing that Arminianism has in common with many Calvinists is the teaching that perseverance is necessary for eternal life. While some Arminians argue that one can lose their salvation if they fall into sin or discontinue in faith, all Arminians agree that perseverance is necessary to gain eternal life. Many Calvinist such as Dr. John MacArthur, Dr. John Piper, or Dr. James White all agree that perseverance is necessary. Their basis is on the doctrine of election wherein God has chosen from humanity those who will be saved and thus it is not only necessary but inevitable that they will persevere. This is where we disagree. However, there are a few within the evangelical Church who deny that perseverance is even necessary for eternal life. And it is that view that I would like to address in this essay.
What are the problems with this view that perseverance is not necessary for eternal life? There are many but let me simply point out four.
1. It's Lack of Biblical Support – There is simply no Scripture for teaching that perseverance is not part of the Christian life. Jesus said that we are to put his words into practice and failure to do so results only in destruction (Matthew 7:24-27). We are called to endure to the end (Matthew 10:22). We are called to take the Word and bear fruit with it through perseverance (Luke 8:15). Jesus told us to remain in the vine (John 15:1-8). Paul said that tribulations bring about perseverance (Romans 5:3) and he warned us to continue in the kindness of God (Romans 11:22). He further said that we must continue in the gospel (1 Corinthians 15:1-2; Colossians 1:21-23). We are to work out our salvation with fear and trembling as God works in us (Philippians 2:12-15). He told Timothy that "if we endure, we will also reign with Him; If we deny Him, He also will deny us" (2 Timothy 2:12; NASB). Hebrews is full of warnings to not drift away from what we have heard (Hebrews 2:1-4; 3:6-19; 4:1-16; 5:8-9; 6:4-20; 10:19-39; 11:13-16; 12:1-39). And of course, Revelation warns us that we are to be overcomers (Revelation 2:7, 11, 17, 26-29; 3:5, 12, 21). Who is it that returns with Christ? Only "the called and chosen and faithful" (Revelation 17:14 NASB).
2. It's Improper Exegesis – Those who preach against perseverance as being necessary must perform horrible exegesis (and often eisgesis) in order to come to their position. The usual route is to focus in on the words "believe" or "faith" and ignore passages that speak about discipleship, repentance, holiness, or perseverance. For example, Bob George in his book Classic Christianity tries to build a case that the entire life of the believer is simply to believe (John 5:24). He takes passages such as John 1:12 or John 3:16 or Acts 16:31 or Romans 10:9-10 and he seeks to establish that we are saved by faith (belief) and faith alone. The problem with George's view is that he ignores repentance (Luke 13:5; 24:47; Acts 2:38; 3:19; 17:30-31; 26:20; Romans 2:4; 2 Corinthians 7:10; 2 Peter 3:9) and he ignores perseverance. George goes so far as to try to teach that 1 John 1:9 is for unbelievers and that the Christian need never confess their sins to God since Jesus paid for them on the cross (2 Corinthians 5:18). How does George get to this view? He does not exegete the passages. He lumps all the "faith" passages together and tries to point out that they have some kind of unique authority over all other passages. Proper exegesis will solve much of the problems associated with perseverance as being necessary for eternal life.
3. It's Lack of Historical Basis – Dr. John MacArthur has a wonderful chapter in his book The Gospel According to Jesus where he shows what preachers and theologians from the past have taught concerning the nature of justification and repentance. He cites several examples including Charles Spurgeon, A.W. Tozer, and Martyn Lloyd-Jones. Historically, the Church has never taught that perseverance is not necessary but that the nature of the Christian life is to persevere, something taught evenly among Arminians and Calvinist from John Wesley to John Calvin.
4. It's Practical Implications – The obvious implication is that people will indulge the flesh and yet still claim to be followers of Christ (Jude 3-4). While legalism can certainly lead to falling away from Jesus (Galatians 5:1-6), being tolerant of sin in our lives can as well (2 Peter 2:20-22). We can disagree over spiritual death resulting from sinning (James 1:12-13), but we can not disagree over the biblical teaching of true perseverance in the faith. Both Arminians and Calvinist must stress the need to continue in the faith until the very end (1 John 2:24-25).

25 Celebrities Who Dropped Out of College
Julia D. Estrada July 2, 2021
Getting an education is extremely important at any level, and many stars ensured that they secured a diploma or a degree before aiming for the big time.
However, many others proved that you don't need a degree to achieve your dreams.
Whether it was leaving college with just a few credits short, or dropping out to chase Hollywood, here are 25 celebs who never quite made it to college graduation.

Brad Pitt is one of the biggest movie stars in the world, but before he broke onto the big screen he was actually planning on becoming a journalist.
He enrolled at the University of Missouri, home to one of the country's best J-schools, but just two weeks before graduation, he dropped out.
Pitt later told NPR: "It just came to the time of graduation and everyone — all my friends were committing to jobs — and I just realized I was not ready for that yet. ..I packed up my car. I didn't graduate — I had two weeks left — and I moved out to LA.
"I just felt I was done; I was done with it. I knew where I wanted to go. I had a direction. I always liked those moments of epiphany when you have the next destination."
Luckily, moving to Hollywood worked out for him.

Reese Witherspoon's mother has no less than three degrees, so it made sense when the actress headed to Stanford University as an English literature major.
However, she left after one year at the age of 19 to pursue an acting career.
Witherspoon told Ellen DeGeneres: "Oh, my mom was so mad at me that I dropped out of college because she wanted me to be a doctor, specifically a plastic surgeon. My dad was an ear, nose and throat surgeon, but my mom was just really determined for me to be a plastic surgeon.
"And she was mad about it for probably 10 years, and then I bought her a house so she got over it. At some point it turned into a better deal for Betty."

Gary Busey first attended a community college before enrolling at Pittsburg State College on a football scholarship. It was here he became interested in acting, and his love of acting took over when he switched to Oklahoma State University on a drama scholarship after an injury claimed his athletics scholarship.
The theater major left school just one class short of graduating and began drumming for a band before his acting career took off in 1974.

Gyllenhaal followed his sister Maggie to Columbia University, and studied Eastern religions and philosophy.
However, after his sophomore year, he dropped out to focus on acting (whereas Maggie finished her studies in literature and Eastern religions).
He has since said he would like to finish his degree at some point.

It's hard to think of Madonna as anything other than the Queen of Pop, and her straight As and cheer experience set her on her way as she earned a dance scholarship at the University of Michigan, to study dance.
However, she dropped out of her course and moved to New York City to pursue stardom and well, that worked out pretty well for Madge.
Four years after dropping out, she released her debut single "Everybody," and went on to become one of the biggest selling artists of all time.
Actor Tom Hanks attends the People's Choice Awards 2017 at Microsoft Theater on January 18, 2017 in Los Angeles, California.

Knowing his career would involve the arts, Tom Hanks studied theatre at Chabot College in Hayward, California, before transferring to California State University, Sacramento after two years.
However, he left college before finishing his degree to start a three-year internship at the Great Lakes Theater Festival in Cleveland, Ohio, where he learned about everything from set design to lighting.
Soon after his internship, he moved to New York to pursue acting, and the rest is history.

Kanye named his debut album The College Dropout for a reason.
After graduating from high school, Kanye West received a scholarship to attend Chicago's American Academy of Art in 1997 and began taking painting classes, and soon after, he transferred to Chicago State University to study English.
However, he realised his classes were taking time out of his work on his music career, and he dropped out of college to pursue music full time.
His mother Donda was pretty peeved, considering she taught at the same college. However, she later wrote in her book Raising Kanye: "It was drummed into my head that college is the ticket to a good life … but some career goals don't require college. For Kanye to make an album called College Dropout it was more about having the guts to embrace who you are, rather than following the path society has carved out for you."
Kanye went on to become one of the biggest names in music, and last year, he ran for President of the United States.

Ben Affleck chose to attend the University of Vermont solely because a girl he liked attended school nearby, so he wasn't exactly setting himself up for success.
After studying Spanish for a few months, he dropped out and moved to Los Angeles to study Middle Eastern affairs at Occidental College.
A year and a half later, Affleck dropped out again, but luck was around the corner, as he began working on a screenplay with pal Matt Damon called Good Will Hunting.
Affleck is the proud owner of a degree now, though, as he was awarded an honorary degree from Brown University in 2013.
Actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, winner of the awards for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for 'Veep' and Outstanding Comedy Series for 'Veep', poses in the press room at the 67th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards at Microsoft Theater on September 20, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus studied theatre at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, and had the full college experience, even pledging to the Delta Gamma sorority and performing with a student revue.
However, in her junior year, she dropped out of college without consulting her parents… but it was to take a job at Saturday Night Live, which worked out pretty well for Julia.
After becoming the youngest female cast member on the show at that time, Julia went on to land her role in Seinfeld, and thanks to that, SNL and Veep, she is now one of the most decorated actress in television.
She's also officially a Northwestern alum now, as she received an honorary doctor of arts degree from the university in 2007.
Ashton Kutcher speaks onstage during WeWork Presents Second Annual Creator Global Finals at Microsoft Theater on January 9, 2019 in Los Angeles, California.

Ashton is now a TV star, a movie star, a heartthrob and a successful venture capitalist, but he could have had a career in biochemical engineering.
While he was keen on theatre in high school, Ashton pursued this degree at the University of Iowa because he wanted to find a cure for his brother's condition; his twin brother Michael has cerebral palsy and cardiomyopathy, and underwent a heart transplant when they were children.
However, after a year of studying, he dropped out to move to LA and pursue a career in modelling, after winning a modelling competition.
Speaking to Newsweek, Kutcher said: " I pursued something I was passionate about and for 22 years, I haven't felt like I've worked a day even though I work every day. So, that was the right decision for me."

Back when she was Stefani Germanotta, Gaga gained early admission to Collaborative Arts Project 21, a music school at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, aged just 17, and lived in an NYU dorm.
However, she dropped out in her second semester of her second year to pursue her music career full time.
At first, it seemed like Gaga's risk wasn't going to pay off, as she was dropped from Def Jam three months after she was signed, but she persevered. After years of gigging and burlesque performances in New York, she was snapped up by a label in 2007, and in 2008, Gaga dropped her debut album The Fame.
Fast forward 13 years, and Gaga has 12 Grammys, an Oscar, two Golden Globes and a Bafta.

Jennifer enrolled at New York's Baruch College to study business but her heart wasn't in it.
After one semester, she dropped out to become a full-time dancer, and her decision put a strain on her relationship with her mother.
JLo told W magazine in 2013: "My mom and I butted heads. I didn't want to go to college. I wanted to try dance full-time. So she and I had a break.
"I started sleeping on the sofa in the dance studio. I was homeless, but I told her, 'This is what I have to do.'"
However, her risk paid off, as she landed a job touring Europe with a show, before getting her big break on In Living Color.
Zooey Deschanel attends the premiere of Focus Features' "Emma." at DGA Theater on February 18, 2020 in Los Angeles, California.

After being bullied in school, Zooey enrolled at Northwestern University, but it seems school just wasn't the place for her.
She dropped out after nine months and later told Allure: "I went to Northwestern because I had gone to a really nontraditional high school. I was like, 'It'd be cool to have a traditional college experience.
"Then I was like, 'Oh, but none of these people understand what's cool about me. My specialness is not appreciated in this place.'"
The world did, however, understand Deschanel's brand of coolness, and her quirky nature landed her the roles in films like 500 Days of Summer and Elf, and the leading role of Jess in New Girl.
Joseph Gordon Levitt
Joseph Gordon-Levitt speaks onstage during the Band Together With Logic 2019 SXSW Conference and Festivals at Paramount Theatre on March 15, 2019 in Austin, Texas.

Many stars dropped out of college before moving into acting, but Joseph was already a booked actor when he attended Columbia University.
After starring in 3rd Rock From The Sun and the classic teen movie 10 Things I Hate About You, he began attending the college in 2000 to study history, literature, and French poetry, and lived in dorms in New York.
However, in 2004, he dropped out, and his reason is rather surprising. He told Glamour: "I taught myself to edit when I was 21. I always wanted to because I always played with my family's video camera, but it wasn't until the early 2000s that video editing software finally became accessible to anyone with a computer.
"Once that became accessible to me, I got a copy of Final Cut Pro, and I dropped out of college. Honestly, if there's one thing that influenced me dropping out of college more than anything it's when I got Final Cut Pro. I could either be writing a paper for a class or editing this video, and it's addictive. At least it is for me."
After dropping out, his acting career stepped up a notch, with films like 500 Days Of Summer, The Dark Knight Rises and Looper.
Sean Combs attends the 'Killing Them Softly' Premiere during 65th Annual Cannes Film Festival at Palais des Festivals on May 22, 2012 in Cannes, France.
As well as being a hip-hop legend, Diddy, aka Sean Combs, is an entrepreneur, with restaurants, fashion, drinks and television networks in his portfolio.
So it will come as no surprise that Combs actually went to college to study business.
He enrolled at Howard University as a business major, but left after his sophomore year to pursue a career in music.
In 2014 Diddy said he was "speechless" when he was awarded with an honorary doctorate in humanities from Howard, and was asked to deliver the University's 146th Commencement Address.

Ryan Seacrest was already a budding radio presenter when he enrolled in the University of Georgia to study journalism.
During his time at college, he became the weekend host for a sports game show on ESPN, and in his junior year, he dropped out to move to LA to pursue broadcasting, where he got his breakthrough hosting KYSR-FM's afternoon drivetime show.
Ryan was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Georgia in 2016, and said during his commencement speech: "I was never more sure of anything in my life. When you try something new, when you take a risk, or chance your course, there will be naysayers and well-meaning skeptics.
"But thank them for their advice. But whatever you do, don't let them silence you or your intuition. And just like me, know that trusting your gut is the best decision that you could make. Decades from now, to your own amazement, because you trusted your gut, you might end up asking the most famous person in the world, 'Who are you wearing?'"

Ellen enrolled in the University of New Orleans to study communications, but dropped out after just one semester.
She later told Parade: "School just was not interesting to me."
Ellen worked a number of jobs while gigging on the comedy circuit, and just a few years later, she made a name for herself nationwide with her stand up comedy.

A billionaire, a media mogul, an Emmy winner, an icon… Oprah has done pretty well for herself, so it may surprise you to hear that she dropped out of college.
After working at a local radio station through high school, she enrolled in Tennessee State University on a scholarship to study communications.
However, in her sophomore year, Oprah Winfrey received a job offer from a local television station, and left school to start her media career, which turned out to be a risk that would pay off massively.

Hayek enrolled in Universidad Iberoamericana in Mexico, where she studied international relations, but dropped out to pursue acting.
Soon afterwards, she landed her breakthrough role in the telenovela Teresa, which turned her into a star in Mexico.

After becoming a teenage TV star with her role on 7th Heaven, Jessica enrolled in Tufts University in Massachussetts for over a year.
However, she dropped out when she was offered the lead role in a remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and admits that she regrets her decision to leave college.
Biel told Allure: "I wish I would have had that time that my girlfriends all had. I wish I would have lived in that crappy, nasty brownstone that they all lived in. If I had to do it again, I would have stuck around and finished it out."

Vin Diesel studied English at Hunter College in New York for three years before he dropped out to pursue acting.
While the decision worked out pretty well for him, he still holds a soft spot for the college, and in 2018, he was awarded with an honorary PhD.
At his graduation, he said: "While I was in Hollywood I always had this pride of Hunter College. I would tell everybody that I learned and took so much away from my experience at Hunter College. I was young, I was a bouncer, when I wasn't bouncing I was in these classrooms with the most diverse student body on the planet."

Bell enrolled at the prestigious Tisch School of the Arts to study musical theatre, but left just a few credits short of graduating to accept the role of Becky Thatcher in the Broadway musical The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
The show closed after a month, but just three years later, she landed the lead role in the series Veronica Mars.

Mila was just 14 when she was cast as Jackie on That '70s Show and 15 when she began voicing Meg on Family Guy, so later, she decided to return to higher education and enrolled at the University of California, Los Angeles, and Loyola Marymount University.
However, she said she "never went to class" and told Collider: "I didn't fail out. I dropped out. I did not fail. I was actually a pretty good student. My problem was that I didn't know what I wanted to study. What was I going to go in? Undecided? I took a class on Zionist theory. I took classes that interested me, that weren't necessarily for a specific degree. Then I realised and spoke to my parents and I said, 'I do love what I do and I want to pursue it.; They were like, 'Oh, why don't you just drop out.'"

John Mayer enrolled at Berklee College of Music in 1998 to pursue his dreams, but became overwhelmed by the workload and dropped out.
He told MTV: "[His grades] were pronounced like 'd-d-d-f-f-f-f-f ' — like static. So I had to kind of totally burn that bridge because I didn't know what I was doing. But Axl Rose wore a kilt and like a catcher's outfit and no one really questioned that, so I hope no one ever questions the Berklee thing."
Mayer moved to Atlanta to start a band, but ended up performing solo, and three years later he released his debut album to critical and commercial acclaim.

"The project has been highly challenging and very intense. Despite this, the project has been delivered to an excellent standard and we have an extremely satisfied client"
Carl Newbigging, Princebuild Ltd
The retail environment has gone through unprecedented change over the last 10 or 15 years. The demise of the traditional small-town high street, the rise of out-of-town shopping parks, the emergence of superstores with vast energy requirements, stricter planning restrictions, and the growing popularity of the internet have all played a part in transforming the way that we shop.
Supermarket giant Asda is committed to sustainability through recycling and waste management, energy and carbon reduction, renewable energy, sustainable transport and distribution, environmental sourcing, and the sale of fair-trade products. Having worked on the development of a flagship store in Bootle, Rolton Group was commissioned to carry out a review of Asda's sites to see where the application of ground source technology could be used to reduce the company's carbon emissions and its use of energy.
We carried out a business case analysis of the use of ground source heat pumps at Asda's 400 locations, and identified 97 current stores, 17 planned stores, and 6 depots as having a high potential for application. The results of the analysis set out the potential for reduction of carbon emissions, the lower running costs that would come from use of the ground loop system, and the payback time on investments in different types of store.
Over the years, the growing popularity of Ikea has led to an increase in the number and size of its stores in the UK. At the same time, planning restrictions have become more stringent on the use of greenfield sites, out of town shopping, and surface car parking. As a result, they had to look to new locations which meant the store footprints became smaller, with car parking integrated into multi-storey retail developments that were primarily located on brownfield sites in city centres. We have worked with Ikea on new stores in Cardiff, Southampton, and Coventry. Among the issues that we tackled were archeological remains near the site in Coventry, potential unexploded ordnance in both Southampton and Coventry, and unremediated land on the site of a former gasworks in Cardiff.
For more than 20 years we have provided a series on engineering services including mechanical and electrical engineering, fire safety, and civil engineering to the management and tenants of the Queensgate Shopping Centre in Peterborough. Our long-term close working relationship with Queensgate allows us to understand their business well and to add value across the spectrum of professional services that we offer.

Hamilton beats Bottas to French GP pole as Vettel is only P7
Lewis Hamilton delivered a sensational lap on his final run to secure his third pole position of the season in French Grand Prix qualifying, beating Mercedes team mate Valtteri Bottas as rivals Ferrari's challenge failed to materialise.
Mercedes have had the measure of Ferrari all weekend, but Sebastian Vettel's time in the second segment of qualifying suggested we might yet have a multi-team fight for pole. It was not to be, though, as Mercedes turned it up when it mattered – as they have so often done in the V6 era.
Hamilton set the best time on his first run and then bettered it on his second with a new track record, nearly three-tenths of a second clear of Bottas, who made a mistake on his final lap.
It was the 62nd Mercedes front row lockout, moving them into a tie for the record with McLaren, Williams and Ferrari while Hamilton is the only driver on the grid to have started in the top three in every race so far this season.
Charles Leclerc was Ferrari's lead driver for only the second time this year, three-tenths further back in third, as his team mate Sebastian Vettel struggled, failing to set a lap time on his first run after losing momentum and only managing a distant seventh on his second.
McLaren delivered their best qualifying performance in years, with Lando Norris a brilliant fifth ahead of Carlos Sainz, the duo looking quick on both the soft and medium tyres throughout the whole session.
Daniel Ricciardo gave Renault, in their home race, a top 10 start with eighth, although he has been called to see the stewards regarding a potential impeding infringement in Q1. Red Bull's Pierre Gasly and Alfa Romeo's Antonio Giovinazzi completed the top 10.

QUALIFYING HIGHLIGHTS: 2019 French Grand Prix
AS IT HAPPENED
Q1 – Grosjean knocked out, as track evolution creates late drama
Drivers didn't waste any time heading out on track as the opening segment of qualifying kicked into gear, with the track ramping up as the session went on, meaning huge benefits for those who set their lap times late on.
The biggest scalp was Romain Grosjean, who has struggled all weekend in front of his home crowd. The Haas driver made a mistake at the Turn 8/9 sequence which meant he had to back out of his lap, having set a personal best in the first sector. It was a big price to pay.
He was joined in an early finish by Daniil Kvyat, who was in the Toro Rosso garage in the closing minutes when the times were tumbling. It's no real loss, though, as he was set to start from the back of the grid anyway courtesy of a string of grid penalties for engine component changes.
While Racing Point's Sergio Perez popped into sixth at the death, his team mate Lance Stroll couldn't follow suit, the Canadian ending up nearly a second adrift and 18th overall, making this his 12th successive Q1 exit.
The two Williams of George Russell, who was set to start from the back anyway because of grid penalties for a change of energy store and control electronics, and Robert Kubica brought up the rear, as Red Bull's Max Verstappen added some attention to proceedings as he scraped through in 13th.
Up front, it was incredibly close for the top three positions, with pace-setter Bottas, Hamilton and Leclerc separated by less than a tenth of second, leaving qualifying finely poised.
Knocked out:
Kvyat
Q2 – Hulkenberg fails to make cut in front of Renault's home crowd
As temperatures continued to soar at Circuit Paul Ricard, drivers were finding the medium Pirelli tyre was actually the faster of the three compounds in this segment of qualifying.
The top teams will have had an eye on getting through on the medium tyres, as it's the better tyre to start the race on, such is their performance advantage – but the conditions allowed for the likes of McLaren and Renault to go in that direction, too.
The McLarens continued to impress with Lando Norris and Carlos Sainz fifth and seventh respectively, while Renault's Daniel Ricciardo also made his way through – all three on the mediums – but his team mate Nico Hulkenberg wasn't so lucky after making a hash of the Turns 8-9 sequence and ended up 13th.
Alexander Albon missed out by just 0.02s, with Pierre Gasly scraping through – though Gasly will be at a disadvantage in the race as he will have to start the race on the softs, which means an early pit stop.
Kimi Raikkonen, Sergio Perez and Kevin Magnussen were the other drivers to get the boot, with Bottas setting the pace for the second successive segment, edging ahead of Vettel by just 0.069s with Hamilton only 0.014s further back in third. The Ferraris, it appeared, were in the hunt.
Hulkenberg
Q3 – Vettel fails to deliver as Hamilton impresses yet again
Hamilton lay down a brilliant marker with his first effort, a tenth of a second clear of Bottas with Leclerc more than half a second adrift after the first runs. Vettel heaped the pressure on his shoulders when he aborted his first run, leaving him with just one attempt to set a lap time.
On the second runs, Bottas – the man with the most pole positions in 2019 heading to this race – made a mistake early on, easing the pressure on Hamilton, but the Briton – who was behind on track – kept his foot in to improve on his leading time by just over a tenth to reinforce his supreme performance.
Leclerc never looked likely to challenge the Mercedes in the shoot-out, but secured third. His team mate Vettel couldn't match him, and ended up seventh. The story of the day, though, was McLaren – who secured their best qualifying result since Jenson Button's third place in the wet-dry 2016 Austrian GP qualifying.
Norris popped in the sixth-best time, which was just 0.009s slower than Red Bull's Max Verstappen in fifth, with Sainz slotting comfortably into seventh. Ricciardo, running Renault's 'spec B' engine was eighth, with Gasly ninth and Giovinazzi out-qualifying team mate Raikkonen for the second successive race in 10th.
THE KEY QUOTE
"It's not an easy track and obviously there's a lot of run off areas but it's quite technical. Valtteri's been quick all weekend, so i've just been chipping away, chipping away and the last two laps were the ones. The last one I was up nearly half a second then lost it in the second to last corner. So I'm happy that I got the potential out of the car." - Lewis Hamilton
Lights go out at 1410 local time tomorrow at Circuit Paul Ricard wich is 1210 UTC. The sun has baked the French Riviera so far this weekend and those toasty conditions are set to continue, with temperatures expected to creep up to 28C when the race gets underway. Can Ferrari come back at Mercedes?

Q: How to clear BCM2835 Interrupt Clear Register? I'm looking into how to make an operating system for Raspberry Pi, and in the OSDev barebones tutorial for the Raspberry Pi, the following code is used to clear any pending interrupts.
// Clear pending interrupts.
mmio_write(UART0_ICR, 0x7FF);

The function mmio_write is as follows.
static inline void mmio_write(uint32_t reg, uint32_t data){
    *(volatile uint32_t *)reg = data;
}

Why is this value significant, and how does it clear the interrupts?

A: This line:
// Clear pending interrupts.
mmio_write(UART0_ICR, 0x7FF);

will write value of 0x7FF to the register at address UART0_ICR.
Most likely, UART0_ICR is a value defined some else where in the code, which refers to the address  of a corresponding register inside the BCM2835, maybe something similar to this:
#define UART0_ICR (UART0_BASE + 0x44)

Why is this value significant, and how does it clear the interrupts?

To understand this, you need to read the data sheet of the device, which is BCM2835 in your case (a quick search gives me this link). Look at the UART register section, you can see the description for UART_ICR register, which is the Interupt Clear Register.
It's quite obvious from the bit table description of that register: it's a 32-bit register, bit 31-11 is not used, while bit from 0 to 10 (11 bit) is used as flags for clearing various kinds of interrupt. Writing value of 0x7FF to this register is literally setting on all those flags, hence it will clear all the pending UART interrupts.

Wade Beach appointed as Conair managing director
Wed 18 Oct 2006 | 6:17 pm
SYDNEY: Wade Beach – the current Retravision NSW merchandise manager and head of Retravision's national portable appliance team – has been appointed as the new managing director of Conair Australia and New Zealand.
According to a statement distributed by outgoing managing director, Wendy Browne, Beach is expected to commence his new role on Monday 30 October.
Beach will work alongside Browne until the end of the year to ensure a smooth transition.
Wade has over 17 years in the electrical industry with brands such as Panasonic, Tefal (distributor Zyliss), Braun and was the marketing director at Sunbeam in the late 1990s," Browne said.
Browne incorporated Conair Australia in May 1995 and commenced trading in November of that year.
In mid-August, Browne announced she would resign from her position at the end of the year due to family and lifestyle reasons.
Conair Australia claims to be the second strongest hair appliance brand in the local market with its Conair and Vidal Sassoon branded products which are complemented by the Cuisinart food preparation brand and the Weight Watchers scales.
"It was time to go. I am looking forward to a new chapter in my life. Having said that, my decision was made easier by the fact that we now have a very strong senior management team in place, covering all aspects of the business."
Beach joins existing Conair management including national sales manager – Lesley McLean and marketing manager – Peter Brewer.

Schools face opportunity to think strategically, newcomer says
Last Updated: 03 July 2014 | Written by Various sources | Hits: 4271
Susse
ELECTION'S EARLY LOOK: Those who take out papers in races that may be contested in April respond to basic questions about themselves and Arlington.
The new face in the School Committee race is Jennifer R. Susse.
The 45-year-old East Arlington resident is one of four candidates seeking three three-year seats, as six-year incumbent Leba Heigham did not return papers.
She is not a new face to Thompson and Hardy PTOs, where she has been an active volunteer. She was a founding organizer of the Arlington Community Card, which helps raise money for Arlington schools through purchases at local businesses.
Asked why she seeks election to the School Committee, the six-year town resident wrote:
"This is an interesting time for the School Committee. Thankfully, we have some breathing room from the financial crisis of just a few years ago.
"Because of this breathing room we have the opportunity to think strategically about what we want the Arlington public schools to look like in the future. The fact that the high school needs to be rebuilt offers us another opportunity to think big picture and long term.
"Of course, we need to make sure that whatever we do is fiscally responsible and doesn't put too much burden on our residential taxpayers."
Asked about her background in school issues, she recalled her parents. "Before they retired," she wrote, "[they] were public school educators in New York City, and educational issues were always part of our dinner-table conversation.
"From my experience teaching at the university level for eight years, I have some insight into how difficult and how rewarding teaching can be."
Because of her two children in the Arlington public schools -- Tessa, in fourth grade at Hardy; and Miles, in seventh grade at Ottoson -- she wrote that has followed issues in the Arlington public schools fairly closely.
How she sees challenges ahead
All candidates for key offices on the town election are asked what they see as the greatest challenges ahead.
For the town's schools, Susse wrote, one of the biggest will continue to be financial.
"Given insufficient state aid, and Arlington's heavy reliance on our residential tax base, we are unlikely to have the money to do everything we would like to do," she wrote.
Another challenge -- "and we are not alone," she added -- is meeting the needs of a diverse group of learners. Arlington is a high-achieving school district, but it is clear that we need to do better at educating all of our children. The fact that we have not had a permanent special-education director has been really difficult for Arlington. Hopefully, we will receive an announcement soon that the position has been filled.
A further challenge for Arlington she cited is the town's growing enrollment. "On the one hand, this is a good problem to have, as it is evidence of our success," she wrote. "On the other hand, it will continue to strain both our infrastructure and our budgets."
The former teacher offered a final word for those in the classroom.
The School Committee needs to help teachers navigate the recent state initiatives "that have come to them all at once," citing the new teacher-evaluation system, the Common Core curriculum and training programs to help English language learners.
"We need to do this while also making sure that we support their professional development generally," she wrote.
Ways to address
As to ways she would address these challenges, she wrote:
"I won't sugar-coat this. These challenges are real and persistent. For our financial challenge, we can do a better job at prioritizing, going after grants, lobbying our legislators and harnessing volunteer efforts, but it is likely that we will be working within the current constraints for some time. Arlington's long-range financial plan ensures fiscal stability until 2018.
"For our special-education students, low-income students and English language learners, we need to make sure that we are fulfilling our moral and legal obligations while creating a nurturing environment for their growth. It is important that the parents in this community feel listened to and respected.
"For teachers, limited time (and money) are always going to be issues, but we must take every opportunity we can to create opportunities for them to grow as educators. One of the best ways to do this is through the types of collaborations and peer observations that are already happening in Arlington."
As to the challenge of a growing enrollment, she cited "some excess capacity at the elementary level (though not much), we can add rooms to the Ottoson by subdividing some of the larger rooms and a new larger high school would help a lot."
She noted that recently the School Committee successfully lobbied for extra money from the town to help with the financial strain that that recent increases in enrollment have had. Town Meeting will vote on this proposal in the spring.
"Thinking big picture and strategically need not take a lot of money. In fact, we need to think strategically if we want to ensure that we are spending money on the right things. Now is the time to do this," she wrote.
"Our schools are doing well, but we can't afford to be complacent. This period of relative calm, and the chance to rebuild the High School, offers us the opportunity to be visionaries. Let's take that opportunity together."
In addition to other activities, Susse has been involved in local and statewide political campaigns, is a Precinct 3 Town Meeting member and has helped with plays at the Thompson and the Arlington Children's Theatre.
Also contending for School Committee seats are incumbents William Hayner and Paul Schlichtman as well as Michael Buckley, who ran in 2013.
Campaign website >>
Looking at how some newcomers to the committee have done in recent elections, you can see that Hayner received 3,983 votes in 2011 in a year when Joseph Curro Jr. topped the ticket, with 4,779, and Heigham got 3,523.
In 2008, when she ran for the first time, Heigham received 3,002 votes. Curro got 3,915 and Joseph E. Curran 3,202.

Michael Bay Says Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Will Not Be Space Aliens
By Rudie Obias | 8 years ago
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot has been troubled from the word "go." Recently, however, the production seems to be trying to win over the fans that the earlier leaked details pissed off. Changing the title from Ninja Turtles back to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles seems to have pleased longtime fans of the comic book and animated series, but that's hardly the only thing sticking in Turtles fans' craws. Now producer Michael Bay is working damage control once again.
While promoting his latest film, Pain & Gain, Michael Bay said one of the reasons why the title reverted to its original form is that, contrary to tumors, the Turtles were never space aliens; they were always mutants. Bay tells Moviefone:
'There was that quote saying that we're making [the Ninja Turtles as] aliens. We're not,' Bay clarifies. 'It's the ooze! It's from the original source material. These are from the original writers, and I never went out to correct myself in the press. I do listen to the fans and I do want this to be authentic. I think they're going to be really happy with this movie. When I see the digital stuff, the turtles look great.'
IT'S THE OOZE!!! Now that the Turtles are officially confirmed as mutants and teenagers once again, hopefully the rest of the film will be more to fans' liking.
The TMNT reboot will feature actors Alan Ritchson, Pete Ploszek, Jeremy Howard, and Noel Fisher as the Turtles, while Megan Fox will play Channel 6 Reporter April O'Neil and Danny Woodburn will play Master Splinter, courtesy of some CGI/live-action hybrid magic. Will Arnett was also cast in the new reboot film, but his character has not been disclosed yet, although there is some speculation that he might play the film's villain, The Shredder.
Jonathan Liebesman (Battle Los Angeles) will direct the film, while Michael Bay will produce and screenwriters Josh Appelbaum & André Nemec (Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol) wrote the script.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will hit theaters everywhere on June 6, 2014.

2018: Our Team Recalls A Year of Celebration
December 13, 2018 by University District
Success fuels momentum for University District
At University District, we are fortunate to celebrate success in 2018, measured by a number of milestones that our team reflects upon and shares with you proudly — our residents, partners and neighbouring communities — as we wrap up the year. The family of builders and retailers, new residents we've welcomed, and many more Calgarians, have joined us on a fantastic journey that sets a positive foundation for 2019.
Achieving consistent success this past year has been fueled by the behind-the-scenes efforts of our passionate, innovative and dedicated team at West Campus Development Trust, with mindful planning for the future that starts with a people-first philosophy. From end-to-end, the community has come together because of the engagement, vision, culture and understanding of how we can work together to better the lives of the residents and communities that surround us.
The 2018 milestones resulted from listening, understanding, and applying the feedback we've received to help make University District a vibrant and active hub that inspires everyone now and for the future. This community has been built with purpose, focused on how we live our best lives. It presents opportunities to build connections with neighbours and enhance overall well-being no matter what age, ability, or lifestyle.
Our team is eager to share our top favourite moments of the year — milestones that all of you have helped make possible by embracing our vision and approach.
James Robertson
President and CEO, West Campus Development Trust
What does community engagement look like? This year we co-hosted a panel discussion called The Importance of Home, Community and Care as We Age. Led by our team and partnering institutions, we explored concepts, challenges and innovative methods that help older adults and seniors age-in-place. We listened to the audiences' concerns for Calgary's aging population and experiences that they see or experience daily. Take a look at our recap to learn more about the key takeaways.
Relationships = Community
At the core of University District, one of the values always present and top-of-mind is how to develop relationships with others, from future residents to builders, to the city and the Northwest legacy communities that surround us. It means that our connections are built on trust and respect, and the community has come together because our partners share that value.
This year, we built momentum for the community with each new housing option announced: from the August by Avi Urban debut in Spring to news of the Cambridge Manor state-of-the-art seniors living facility (in partnership with the Brenda Strafford Foundation) to the unveiling of the seniors independent living development called Maple by Truman. We've broken ground on all three projects! What's more, we've welcomed the first residents of University District at Brookfield Residential's The IVY, and Truman's Noble developments. Recently, we announced Brookfield's latest project, the Capella, featuring two distinctive and impeccably designed styles: a collection of contemporary condos and a luxurious selection of single-level residences – a unique offering rarely seen in Calgary.
So what does this all mean?
"From the beginning, University District was designed to support people of all ages and life-stages, so we are offering housing options with size, space and flexibility in a more compact form. It's really creating that urban village, so it's a key component to not only have multi-family living but also the retail integration. People are interested in a different type of living, where their family can grow with them."
Emily Allert-House
Communications and Community Engagement Lead
As an age-in-place community, University District offers flexibility for residents to stay and enjoy the benefits of urban living, with ease of accessibility and without having to compromise or wait for development. Our relationships with new retailers brings a new dynamic to community building, where amenities will be available into the second phase of development.
Retail Excitement, Present and Future
The vision for University District retail district is the heart of the community, the hub where everyone will come together to shop, eat, explore, and social. For 2018, this vision is in arm's reach as we're well on our way to building for the near future, with fantastic retail partners like hyper-local small businesses Analog Coffee and Market Wines, and Canadian-based powerhouse brand Alt Hotels by Group Germain Hotels. To end the year off with a bang, we recently announced in partnership with Cineplex to open a VIP Cinemas theatre, one of two Cineplex theatres in the country dedicated exclusively to adult movie-goers.
"The lifestyle offered at U/D is simple. With innovative and premium experiences for everyone in the community and most during the early stages of development, life is easy as soon as you move in. What's better than moving into a new community with everyday amenities at-the-ready, and within walking or biking distance from home? Community retail is important because it means less commuting and less traffic, and more quality time spent on the things you enjoy most."
Adam Thurston
The feedback from the community? Enthusiasm and anticipation for life at University District!
Residents have already planned out their days, from their morning coffees after a leisurely stroll and a quick stop-over for a bottle of wine after work near the University to weekend outings at the theatre and coffee meet-ups. Better yet, on the radar is grocery partner Save-on-Foods to be opened in 2020 – a hub of its own where shoppers tend to trade recipes, see familiar faces or grab a sandwich at the cafe on their way to enjoy an evening at U/D's urban dog park.
We sat down with Russ and Chris Prefontaine from the Analog Coffee team to speak about their latest retail addition to University District. Click here to see what they had to say!
Inspiring Open Spaces – North Pond and Urban Dog Park
The benefits of parks and play spaces are far-reaching for a community, whether for people to socialize, to be active, or feel like a safe space to walk through during an evening stroll. Part of University District's master plan incorporates a 12km path system where all quadrants of the community can connect. The very first U/D park opening this past July was a day to remember — the North Pond and Urban Dog Park opened to welcome residents and neighbours, and many Calgarians who were excited to take part in a unique experience.
"The two-acre multi-purpose park space was built so people could get together, meet for a coffee, plan a day out with the dogs, or just enjoy outdoorsy living in an urban neighbourhood. From our engagement sessions and taking a look at exemplary urban villages in North America, we knew that this was highly valued as an amenity for the community. Our park spaces integrated with specific features like the fenced, off-leash areas, show that we appreciate, acknowledge and value what's needed and wanted for a better lifestyle."
Travis Oberg
Senior Development Manager
Since the opening, the park is recognized and used as a local destination that is simply a great gathering place. Its presence in such an early stage of development for the community has really helped new residents embrace the neighbourhood and the outdoors, whether with family and friends, or quick walks to nearby communities and shopping centres.
Did you miss out on the opening day of the North Pond and Urban Dog Park? Take a look here to see how excited dogs, dog owners, and event-goers were to participate in all of the activities, including the best in dog show and a treasure map tour of the entire park and local NW vendors.
Planning mindfully has been a part of University District from the beginning — it helps shape the community through innovation, identify opportunities, and find solutions to challenges. As an age-inclusive, multi-family community, U/D was designed for people to be able to enjoy life, including staying active, focusing on their well-being and spending time with loved ones. It's the reason why the Northwest Commons Park urban themed playground with more than 8,300 square feet of interactive age-inclusive play space was an important amenity incorporated in plans.
The all-purpose recreational area is a unique concept, called a Playcore National Demonstration Site, built to be an inclusive, fair, smart, independent, safe, active and comfortable play space for everyone!
"We were committed to creating a play space that is inclusive, despite abilities or age. Everyone has the urge to play and the Northwest Commons Park doesn't limit anyone from participating. It's a great reason for people to stay active, whether or not they have children, and get out into the community to get to know their neighbours. Our common spaces are built so block parties and barbecues, play dates, or a round of flag football can happen at anytime.
The best part about the playground is that it's wheelchair accessible, features mobility and sensory touch points, and provides easy connections. It's representative of the overall plan for University District."
Josh Delannoy
Development Coordinator

Community of the Year
In September we were awarded New Community Development of the year by the Building Industry and Land Development (BILD) Alberta. The annual industry awards is a testament to how University District is a unique, diverse collective of experience, knowledge, values and history that help us create our own new meaning of community.
Through constant engagement with community members, partners, and stakeholders, the community has been built to integrate wants and needs for services and amenities, walkability, accessibility, and connectivity. Listening to this feedback has truly helped us develop long-term, lasting relationships that demonstrate we're trying to be a good neighbour and provider so you can lead the best life possible in this community.
"U/D is a community like no other and we want everyone who is a part of it to feel that they are helping shape it to be a one-of-a-kind place to visit and call home in Alberta. Winning the award this year isn't just a proud moment for our team, but it validates the grassroots efforts and values that motivate and drive our residents to be proud ambassadors for us because they were involved."
Maureen Henderson
From our humble beginnings only five years ago to now, it has been a remarkable journey to take with our team, all of our supporters — builders and partners — the current and future residents of U/D, and the greater NW. Thank you everyone for your collaboration, your trust and your encouragement.

Erling Haaland to Leave Dortmund, and 4 Other Big Transfers to Expect at the End of 2021/2022 Season
nohoarts
The 2021/2022 football season will run until May 2022, which means there is still about 6 months to play in the current season. Although the season is just mid-way, a lot of clubs have already identified problem areas within their squads which would need to be fixed in the transfer market.
By January 1, 2022, the summer transfer window will be officially opened, which means clubs can begin the process of getting the players they need to fix the glaring issues in their teams. While this is the case, a lot of the big transfers don't usually happen in the winter transfer windows. As such, clubs are likely going to wait until the summer window to fix their issues.
Apart from staking on the results of football matches, one of the other ways fans can make money from their love of football is to wager on players' transfers. For instance, the best betting sites Portugal already have the odds in place for the 2022 summer transfer window, and fans can start placing their bets now.
If you are not familiar with how to place a bet on football games and transfers, or you are not sure of the right betting apps and sites to use, you should take some time to go through this link.
Since winning a bet also requires a lot of expertise, you may want to consider following the opinions of top tipsters like Kate Richardson, whose picks have won several fans a large chunk of money in recent time.
Football is a multi-billion dollars industry with an extended numbers of participants and stakeholders making a lot of money from their participation in the beautiful game. You only need to take a look at Kylian Mbappe's salary at PSG, Lionel Messi's salary at the same club, and the amount Manchester United is paying Cristiano Ronaldo even at 36 to understand that this truly is a money-spinning game.
Top Transfers to Expect at the End of the 2021/2022 Season
The current football season (2021/2022) will come to an end by May, and the transfer window will officially be open on June 1, 2022. Going by the rumor mills, is expected that a lot of transfers will take place, all of which will may run into billions of dollars.
In this article, we will focusing on 5 of the biggest transfers we expect to see once the transfer window opens officially.
1. Erling Haaland to Leave Borussia Dortmund
Erling Haaland's agent, Mino Raiola was one of the busiest and most talked about football agent last summer, and we expect him to be busy again this summer, and finally facilitate the transfer of his most prized asset to one of Europe's elite team.
Haaland has been in unbelievable form since he joined Dortmund in the winter of 2020. He has since attracted the attentions of some of European football's heavyweights, including Real Madrid, Chelsea, Barcelona, the Manchester clubs, among others. Last summer, Haaland was closely targeted by current European Champions, Chelsea, who were in the market for a top marksman, but the deal fell through, mainly because of a rumored £820,000 a week contract, and another £34m agent fee which Haaland agent had demanded in the course of negotiations.
Although Haaland didn't get his dream move last summer, it is expected he will be leaving Dortmund this season as he reportedly has a modest £68m release clause in his contract which his admirers will definitely pay without thinking twice. From what we can learn from the media, the leading clubs for his signature this summer include, Real Madrid, Manchester City, and possibly Barcelona.
2. Kylian Mbappe to Join Real Madrid
The golden boy of French football, Kylian Mbappe came close to joining Spanish giants, Real Madrid in the last winter transfer, but the transfer was blocked by the Qatari owners of his current club, Paris Saint Germain. Mbappe who has less than a year on his current contract will be free to talk to Real Madrid starting from January, and from all indications, this is a deal that will likely go through.
The player was rumored to have said playing for the Los Blancos is his childhood dream, and the fact he is in the final year of his contract means he has all the power to make his dreams come true. Mbappe's wages per week currently stands at £413,000 and it is expected he can increase that amount significantly at the Spanish capital. All other things being equal, Mbappe's agent, Kia Joorabchian, will be able to take this deal over the line with minimum fuss.
3. Antonio Rudiger to Leave Chelsea
Current European champions, Chelsea will most likely lose the services of talismanic defender, Antonio Rudiger at the end of the season given the current realities. Rudiger who is in the last year of his contract with the London club was instrumental to their European success in May as well as their great start to the current season.
However, agreeing to a new contract has been quite difficult as player and club could not agree to a mutually beneficial deal. The contract offer on the table from Chelsea is said to have been below Rudiger's expectations, and he is expected to join another club by June.
4. Mohammed Salah to Leave Liverpool
Unlike most of the players on this list, Salah is not in the last year of his Liverpool contract, but he may refuse to sign a new contract, which will leave him with a year to run on his contract at the end of the season.
Now, that is bad news for Liverpool. Undoubtedly, Salah is the most in-form player in the world currently, and this means he has many suitors. Failure to agree to a new bumper deal with Liverpool will mean he would likely move to a new team by the end of the current season.
5. Edinson Cavani to Leave Manchester United
At the start of the new season, Uruguayan forward, Cavani was seen as an untouchable in the Manchester United team. However, all of that seems to have changed as a lack of playing time, injuries, and change of manager means he may be staring at the exit door. For a player of Cavani's stature, there can't be a lack of suitors. In fact, it has been rumored that new moneybags, Newcastle United may be going all out for the player next summer.
The football transfer window is exciting and unpredictable, as a number of things can change quickly regarding players, clubs, and even the football administrators. However, going by what we know now, we are likely going to see the deals suggested above go though at the end of the current season.
The football transfer window offers a lot of intrigues and surprises. Read the 5 biggest transfers we expect to see at the end of the 2021/202 season.

Q. This is one of the popular tool to analyse and map an organisation's stakeholders.
A. A key aspect of formulating corporate strategy is understanding key stakeholders. The objectives of an organisation will be governed by its key stakeholders. These key stakeholders be determined using stakeholder mapping. Mendelow's matrix is a popular method for performing stakeholder mapping.The matrix assesses the level of power and level of interest of either individual stakeholders or stakeholder groups. This analysis can then be used to decide how best to engage with them from minimum effort, through keeping them informed and satisfied to involving them in active participation in the organisation.

Hurts so Good: A Friday the 13th Retrospective Part 1
Posted on February 8, 2009 by Jason Thorson
On February 13th, 2009 a new installment of horror cinema's most prolific series opens, unlocking Camp Crystal Lake and unleashing Jason Voorhees on yet another generation of horror fans. By way of Michael Bay and Platinum Dunes, Marcus Nispel's (Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake 2003) Friday the 13th re-imagining/remake will mark the twelfth time in the last 29 years that we've been given the opportunity to spend an hour and a half at Camp blood.
The Friday the 13th films are guilty pleasures one and all. They've contributed as much to the global pop cultural make up as any other film or film series made. The iconography in these movies is among the most recognizable, comparable to The Wizard of Oz and Star Wars. The hockey mask-wearing, machete-wielding maniac is now considered cliché. Harry Manfredini's musical score has been imitated arguably more than any other. And we all know what happens to those morally bankrupt youngsters who have sex, do drugs, and decide the investigate strange noises – rules that have become permanent fixtures in the horror genre.
Yet, despite the numerous contributions the series has made to film and pop culture, there is no denying that the first eleven of them have been for the most part as bad as movies can be. This begs the question: Why do I and millions of others love them so damn much? Well, I'll get to that, but first let's look back at how it's all gone down so far….
Jason Voorhees drowns at Camp Crystal Lake way back in 1957. His mother Pamela, the camp's cook, does not take this well. The following year, two horny camp counselors are slaughtered. The camp's attempts to reopen after the murders are thwarted by mysterious fires and "bad" water. Two decades later the camp finally reopens despite dire warnings from crazy Ralph, the all-knowing, yet bat-shit-crazy local. Soon camp counselors are dropping like flies, including Kevin Bacon. Alice, the lone survivor, inevitably comes face to face with the murderous stalker. Surprise! It's middle-aged Pamela Voorhees exacting revenge on the negligent camp counselors whom she blames for Jason's death decades earlier. No worries, though. Alice beheads Pamela and saves the day…or does she?
Friday the 13th Part II (1981)
Two months after Mrs. Voorhees was put down, Alice opens her refrigerator to find Mrs. Voorhees' severed head. Alice is then promptly stabbed through the brain with an ice pick. Apparently Jason didn't drown after all. The events of the first film were just a huge misunderstanding, but now Jason must exact his own revenge on all camp counselors since one of them killed his mother. This episode is in many ways better than the original, not to mention it's the first time that Jason is the baddie. Like countless other horror films, this episode uses the real life exploits of Ed Gein to give us a disturbing psychological element as Jason hangs out in an abandoned shack in the woods in which he's erected an altar featuring his mother's head. Sporting a burlap sack over his disfigured face, long hair and patchy beard, the pre-iconic Jason is a frightening sight.
Friday the 13th Part 3 (1982)
Chris and her friends are on a get away vacation to the family cabin. While stopping in town for supplies they have an unfortunate run in with a biker gang. The bikers follow the horny teens to the cabin. However, Jason kills the bikers before they can get retribution on their teenaged antagonists. Later, one of Jason's teenaged victims happens to be in the middle of pranking the others – a prank requiring that he wear a hockey mask. One sliced throat later and Jason's got a new disguise and we're given the first example of iconic Jason. Chris and Jason eventually face off, but not before a slew of creative butchering occurs. Did I mention this all happens in 3-D? That's right. You will be compelled to duck away from spears, eye balls, and implements of juggling, among many other things.
Friday the 13th Part IV: The Final Chapter (1984)
This star studded event features Crispin Glover, Corey Feldman, and effects by Tom Savini who also handled them in the original. Jason's body is taken to the morgue, but wait! He's not dead. He kills his way back to Crystal Lake where another batch of teens have rented a lakeside home situated next door to the Jarvis Family Home. After Jason dispatches nearly everyone, twelve-year-old Tommy Jarvis (Corey Feldman) kills Jason with a machete. And that's that, folks. It's over. Final chapter. No?
Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning (1985)
Tommy Jarvis, now a teenager, resides in a halfway house for troubled teens. Soon a resident named Vic butchers another resident, Joey, with an axe. The ambulance comes to take away the Joey's corpse and that night more Jason-style murders begin. Sex seems to be the quickest route toward butchery in this episode although all roads eventually lead to murder. Tommy must once again kill Jason and when he does he discovers that the killer isn't Jason, but rather it's ambulance attendant Roy Burns! That's right – the father of Joey burns whose body he had taken away in the ambulance earlier. And thus we're treated to the first proverbial shark that the series jumps over with gusto.
Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives (1986)
Fresh out of the mental institution, Tommy Jarvis and his friend, Allen, go to the cemetery and dig up Jason's corpse just to err on the side of caution, of course. Once they uncover Jason's body, Tommy impales it with an iron bar and lo and behold lightening strikes it thereby reanimating Jason. Back at Camp Crystal Lake Jason kills most everyone leading to a showdown between him and Tommy. Once again Tommy, who at this point should be given a uniform and an official title, is forced to kill Jason by luring him into the lake and anchoring him to the bottom with a weighted chain around his neck. This run of the mill episode contains the most intentional humor of the series to this point, bordering on self parody at times.
Watch for Hurts so Good: A Friday the 13th Retrospective Part 2 later this week.

Former Detroit mayor indicted on 19 fraud, tax charges
By the CNN Wire Staff
Ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is already serving time on obstruction charges related to efforts to cover up an affair.
Former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick could be sentenced to 20 more years in prison
He is accused of using donations to a tax-exempt for personal expenses
He is already serving a five-year prison term after violating probation
Kwame Kilpatrick
(CNN) -- Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was indicted Wednesday on 19 counts of federal fraud and tax charges, according to the U.S. attorney's office in the Eastern District of Michigan.
The charges against him include 10 counts of mail fraud, three counts of wire fraud, five counts of filing a false tax return and one count of tax evasion, according to U.S. District Court spokesman Rod Hanson.
If he is convicted, each fraud count would carry a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison and a fine of $250,000, while each tax count would carry a maximum sentence of up to five years in prison and a fine of $250,000, the U.S. attorney's office said.
The charges stem from an alleged scheme in which Kilpatrick used donations to his Kilpatrick Civic Fund -- a tax-exempt social welfare organization -- to pay for such personal expenses as yoga and golf lessons, and campaign expenses in his 2001 and 2005 bids for mayor, according to the indictment.
Kilpatrick had claimed the fund would go toward community services and voter registration information, the indictment says.
Kilpatrick, 40, is currently serving five years in prison for violating probation in a 2008 case against him. That case involved two felony counts of obstruction of justice stemming from Kilpatrick's efforts to cover up an extramarital affair.
He also pleaded no contest to charges of assaulting a police officer attempting to serve a subpoena on a Kilpatrick friend in the case.

The bronze hex nuts arrived and work well thank you. I have only fitted one but it fitted perfectly. I have yet to use the screws I got from you but am sure they will be fine as well.
Robert is building a timber launch in the Gippsland Lakes area and required silicon bronze hex nuts and washers to make use of some threaded bronze rod he had. Classic Boat Supplies also sold Robert square-drive silicon bronze screws.
