Tomorrow morning is the first regular meeting of my team... we meet once a week for three hours to cover the most important issues facing us at the time. I'll be leading our devotional time tomorrow, and I'm going to walk us through three attributes that the apostle Paul said made a leader worthy of respect. This is all taken from First Thessalonians 5:12-15.
One, they work hard. The word used for "work" here means work which is both difficult and exhausting. A good leader works hard, and as a result they deserve our respect.
Two, our leaders should care for us. The word used here is proistemi which has a semantic range which can include being over someone or can mean to care for someone. There is some debate on which meaning is intended here (some saying we respect them because of their position, some saying we respect them because of their care for us), but it seems to me that the author (indeed, perhaps the Greek language) is making the assumption that to be over someone includes the prerequisite in the job description that you care for that person as well. This would fit easily with Paul's statement in 1 Thessalonians 2:11 that he cared for the Thessalonians, "like a father with his children." It's simply a natural expectation that those who lead are not only organizationally above those they lead, but also that they will care for those who are their responsibility.
Three, our leaders admonish us. Since no one even knows what admonish means in English, let alone Greek, I'll tell you that the word admonish (noutheteo) can mean to instruct or to rebuke for wrongdoing, or to warn someone about the consequences of their actions. Here it most likely refers to general teaching, but a few verses later (v. 15) it clearly refers to rebuking someone for wrongdoing ("admonish the idle").
So, three reasons to respect our leaders.
Or, if you're a leader, three standards to compare yourself to: Do I work hard? Do I care for those under my authority? Do I instruct those under my authority?
What do you think? Who is a good leader from your life history who led in these three ways? Do you have negative examples where leaders didn't do one or more of these things in their leadership?
I noticed the other day that Z had just finished reading a book called Into The Land Of The Unicorns . The girl reads so much that it's hard to keep tabs on what she's reading or even where all these books come from. I decided I would read it, just to have an idea if the books she's reading are appropriate for her age.
Me: Your book is a little bit scary.
Z: It's not scary! It's exciting. You know nothing is going to hurt Cara because she's the main character.
Z: Do you want me to tell you what happens so you're not scared?
Imaginary Jesus now available for pre-order at CBD!
Well, CBD wins the race. To be fair, I didn't contact all the bookstores to let them know there would be a race. But if you're so fast that you win a race before other people know a race is happening, well, it's not your fault that God made you fast.
All that to say: BEHOLD! Imaginary Jesus available for pre-order at CBD!
"Story" is increasingly en vogue among evangelicals today. Books like Brian McClaren's "New Kind of Christian" trilogy uses a narrative framework as a vehicle for presenting theology, and even Gordon McDonald adopted this in last year's "Who Stole My Church?" Don Miller's newest book is about using the framework of Story for discovering purpose in our lives. Even non-Christians are presenting theology using narrative, as is evidenced in books like "The Da Vinci Code." This self-directed study course is designed to explore the advantages and disadvantages of conveying theology through fiction and story, looking not only at Biblical examples but also at the best (and worst) examples from our history and today. What are the appropriate boundaries between faith and fiction? If there are advantages to using fiction to convey theology, what are they? How can we do this well? How can we make sure that the message of Christ is getting to as many people as possible using this method?

The student will keep a course diary to show how the 45 hours allotted to the course are spent."
The student will write a paper at the end of this course summarizing his findings and what he has learned.
I'm looking forward to this course. Like I told Krista, I tend to work harder on courses completely within my areas of interest... I'm likely to put in a lot more work for this one unit than is necessary or even wise.
Anyway, I still need to get approval from a few people at the school, but this is what I'm shooting for!
When I got home from class yesterday I was excited to see that my copy of Parker: The Hunter had finally arrived.
Adapted from Richard Stark's novel of the same name , Hunter is the story of a criminal named Parker who is double crossed by his wife and partner and left for dead. But he's not dead, and he shows up with a cold, calculating plan for revenge. Parker is played out with almost machine-like implacability, but that's just a mask for the raging emotions underneath.
This book (Darwyn Cooke's doing) has some of the most gorgeous sequential art I've seen in a long time. It's well worth your time to click through the link above and click "search inside this book" to see a few pages. The whole thing is done in black and white with blue shading. I'm about halfway through the book right now and if you're a fan of Chandler, Connelly or crime fiction in general, this is a book you're going to want to pick up.
I'm taking a class at Western Seminary this week... a three day look at Jesus' sermon on the mount by Bill Mounce. If you're interested in seeing the sort of thing we'll be discussing, my professor has free podcasts of the two year series he preached on the sermon on the mount online. That's right, two years. I know. Read it again. Two years. He will have to talk fast to fit it all into 2.5 days.
I'm looking forward to this class. We're going to take a pretty deep look at this key sermon of Christ. I'll try to give you some worthwhile tidbits from the class later this week. In the meantime, if the internet causes you to sin, cut it off. It's better to enter Heaven without wireless than keep it and go to Hell. Don't say I didn't warn you.
A: It's me, Matt Mikalatos.
It seems that Baby M's Mikalatos genes are already kicking in. I was teasing her about not being able to walk yet at 2 weeks old and she gave me this look.
A: Dad! This says that dragonflies first came on the Earth 300 million years ago.
A: But I don't think that's right!
A: Because God made dragonflies. And he's been around a lot longer than 300 million years!
My neighbor across the street, Derek, was standing out on his porch talking to the new Mormon missionaries assigned to our neighborhood. After a while I decided to wander over and say hello. I learned a few things (like when you're excommunicated from the LDS church you can still go to services but you're not allowed to pay tithes... weird). I asked about the second heaven that's so great that if we could see it now we'd kill ourselves to go there... and so long as you've been a good person that's where you get to go. One of the guys said, "Well, that's not really true, that rumor gets around but that's not really true." I told him that the person who told me that was the last missionary assigned to the neighborhood and he said, "Well, it's true but widely misunderstood." Oh.
The most special moment was as everyone was getting ready to leave Derek said, "Matt's an author." And then a minute later he said, "Tell them the name of your book, Matt."
And then there was a long, awkward pause. Then I explained that it wasn't a book against Jesus.
Mormons: You should come to our church for services sometime.
This morning I went out to my car to get something (okay, okay, my kids left their hairbrush in the car and couldn't find it themselves). As I bent over, rummaging through the detritus of accumulated child life in the back seat, a strange male voice floated over to me and said good morning.
I stood up and saw a man who had apparently just arrived from attending church in the 1950s. Next to him was a lady wearing a lovely floral dress to compliment his suit. He began, as I recall, by asking me if I had my Saturday chores all planned out. I told him we had a new baby and therefore wouldn't be doing chores. We exchanged baby related pleasantries.
I turned back to the car and bid them a good morning, and the man called for my attention once more so that he could show me a copy of the Watchtower, which would guide me through my confusion about the Bible by giving me a reading plan. Then he showed me how you could cut it out along the dotted lines. I liked how he assumed that I both wanted to read the Bible and also that I found it intimidating and difficult.
I told him that I didn't need his magazine, but thanks. He asked, "Are you a Bible reader yourself?" I told him yes. He asked if I had a special Bible verse for being a father. I wasn't sure what he meant. He said a special verse I went to as a father. I scratched my head and told him that so far as I knew they were all equally special and I hadn't really singled any out for special duty to me as a father. He quickly agreed and said good-bye.
I went out a minute later and they had moved on to our Russian neighbors, who never get up that early in the morning. At this time of the morning the father usually answers the door in his shorts. Then they went to the next neighbor down. He's deaf, and they seemed discouraged when no one answered. They got in their car (which, strangely, had two more JWs inside) and left the neighborhood.
I was a little disappointed that I didn't have the energy to engage in a lively conversation with them. Oh well. I'm sure they'll be back.
We're learning a lot of new lessons with the a baby in the house for the first time in six years. Baby M took a pacifier for the first time yesterday... Z never took one at all, so I was glad to see that she might take one. When A saw her take it she said, "Hey! I thought you said that M didn't like sassifiers!"
And suddenly it all made sense. My kids never took pacifiers, which would have, one assumes, pacified them. No. They were using sassifiers. Which is why they are so sassy.
Now Krista and I know what to do when the kids are getting a little edgy with us. Confiscate the sassifiers.
Powerbocking is essentially jumping stilts. The guy who invented them had been studying kangaroo biology.
I realized as I was changing my daughter's clothes this morning at 2 am that you probably don't remember or haven't experienced some of what I am about to describe.
Imagine for a moment that you are suffering from sleep deprivation. Not, I went to a party and stayed out late laughing with my friends sleep deprivation, but I woke to a hungry mouth calling from somewhere in my house (just like an hour ago) and this is going to keep happening for several days in a row sort of sleep deprivation.
Now imagine that as a result your manual dexterity has declined and that you have to be careful when, for instance, picking up a pillow that you don't somehow break it or rip it into shreds because your hands seem to ignore your brain's directions.
And speaking of brains, let's imagine that your mental acuity has suffered as well and you find yourself saying things like "I'm glad it's April finally" and just assuming that everyone will figure out that you meant "That other month that starts with an A". Pretend that it takes you upwards of two hours to even realize that you said April instead of the word you meant, and the only way you figure it out at all is because someone at the time decided to mess with you and said, "Yup, can't wait for Easter."
Now imagine that it's two in the morning and your kid has just emitted some sort of fluid onto her clothing and needs to change again, for the sixth time this day, and that as you try to get her little pajamas on you realize that this outfit like too many others has SNAPS! NOOOOOOO! WHy not a zipper? WHy seventeen snaps? And why is it that no matter how carefully you try to make sure that you get them all snapped, at the end of the pajama you're one snap off and are left a strange wrinkle mocking you and saying that you somehow missed the other piece? How many minutes have I spent staring at the pajamas and telling my brain you can do this, you can figure this out?
Of course, the sheer waste of time involved in me staring at the pajamas as if it were the Sunday New York Times Crossword puzzle is counter-balanced by the enormous amount of time I am awake in the day. So I guess we have that going for us.
But in conclusion, I would like to encourage you to contact your R and D department and suggest that they put a lot of work into designing some sort of clothing that would actually crawl onto children on command.


God is everywhere by His Spirit but not everyone KNOWS God. Do you want to KNOW God, the one true Creator God who made heaven and earth and YOU? Do you want to know Him, not just know about Him?
When we meet people, we first learn their names.
There is only one true God and His name is YHWH. YHWH is in the Hebrew language and means "I AM who I AM". (Exodus 3:14) This is often written in English as Yahweh or Jehovah, sometimes shortened to YAH. Jesus' name, YAHshua or Yeshua in Hebrew means "YAH saves".
When we want to get to know someone, we talk to them. If we want to be friends with them, we keep talking together and listening!
Adam and Eve, the first people, once walked with YHWH God in the garden until they listened to the devil's lie and disobeyed God. But Adam and Eve did know the Almighty God as a person knows another person!
Do you want to walk and talk with God? Do you want to know YHWH? God makes Himself known to those who want to know and follow Him! But God's voice is heard by spiritual ears, by our spirits.
God wants to talk with us. We will look in the Book of Beginnings, Genesis, and see how often God made Himself known.
God visited Laban the Syrian, Jacob's father-in-law in a dream. (Genesis 31:24).
Wow! God certainly made Himself known to a number of people and that's just the first book of the Bible!
Yahshua is "the image of the invisible God". (Colossians 1:15) When the people in the Bible saw YHWH God, they saw Jesus Christ. The "Man" who was the "God" that Jacob wrestled with was Christ!
Yahshua said… "I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:6) If we want to know God, we must come through Jesus who is "the image of the invisible God".
The apostles of Jesus' day saw Jesus Christ in His earthly body. Some of us today may see Jesus in a dream or a vision. My daughter when she was only three had a dream that Jesus gave her a new heart! Some may hear God's voice, whether a whisper in the heart or as a "download" to our minds. But we true Christians all know Him by His Spirit, the Holy Spirit of God who dwells in and with us! We know Him by and through His Word! If you want to know YHWH God, study His Word.
Long ago in the time of Abraham, there was no written Word of God. Today we have His Word, His Spirit in the Holy Scriptures. Today God makes Himself known through the Words He spoke and had men write down to form the Bible!
We can know God through His Word which speaks of Him through the person of Jesus Christ! We have His sure Word written in a wonderful Book of Life! HalleluYAH!
God still speaks to His people. YHWH speaks through His Word, through Christ, through His Holy Spirit. But knowing His sure written Word helps us to recognize His voice. Jesus cautioned us that liars would come saying they are Christ. But those lying spirits, those lying words will NOT be the same as Jesus' truthful words that are life! We are cautioned to test the spirits and one way to do that is to compare what they say by what is written in God's Word. God's word is truth!
We are so blessed to have God's written Word but that does not mean that He has stopped appearing or talking to His people in other ways! Many people, in this time, especially in places where missionaries are not allowed, have had visions of Christ. God still speaks and leads His people by His Holy Spirit. And, certainly, God speaks daily to us even through His creation! (Romans 1:19-20) God desires to be known. That's why He told us to go and preach the gospel, the Good News to all the world!
So if you want to know YHWH God, read the Bible! (A good place to start is the the Book of John.) If you want to know God better and to become His close friend, keep reading His Word! Pray and spend time listening to the voice of His Holy Spirit. You, too, can walk and talk with God! Because of Jesus Christ, if you believe in Him, there is nothing that can separate you from the Spirit of God! And someday soon we will see Him, our Yahshua, face to face!
Now that psalmist really wanted to know God!

Mochta's relishing the return to LSL action
St Mochta's manager Brian McCarthy says his side are eager to get back to business after being starved of competitive action over Christmas.

St Mochta's manager Brian McCarthy says his side are eager to get back to business after being starved of competitive action over Christmas.
The LSL Sunday Senior side haven't played a meaningful game of football since the end of November, when they beat Dunboyne to secure a spot in the last 16 of the FAI Intermediate Cup.
That result earned the Blanch side a spot in the first round of the FAI Senior Cup and means they went through the first half of the season with just a single defeat.
McCarthy says the attitude of his side has been first-class as they've trained well week-in, week-out over Christmas without the carrot of a game to come at the weekend.
That all changes on Friday as the 2016/17 champions make the short trip into the city centre to face Drumcondra/Stella Maris in the first round of the Charlie Cahill Cup.
The sides are familiar with one another, having faced each other many times in the top tier over the last few seasons, but Drums are struggling in Senior 1 having finished bottom of the pile last year.
McCarthy knows better than to underestimate any game in the Leinster Senior League, even against a side who've only won once all season.
"We're looking forward to getting back playing games," McCarthy tells the Dublin Gazette.
"We've played three friendlies in the period of Christmas. The attitude has been very good from the lads, in fairness, but we're just looking forward to getting back playing.
"We're very confident going into any game. On our day, we're as good a team in the Leinster Senior League as there is. We've just got to perform.
"You can find yourself losing a game very easily in the Leinster Senior League, but on our day we can beat anyone.
"Hopefully we can start on Friday, have the right attitude and begin the second half of the season with the right mentality."
One factor that will help Mochta's guard against complacency has been their cup form – they're still in all three cups, having been knocked out in the first round of the Cahill and Metro last year.
League form has been more mixed, with four draws from their nine games so far, but they have four games in hand over the sides at the top which could take them right back into contention.
McCarthy brought in ex-League of Ireland players Mick Daly and Craig Hyland, as well as UEFA Regions Cup winner Noel Murray, during the summer, while Gavin Kearney returned from injury.
And, while he won't stand in any player's way if they get an offer of league football, the manager is hoping to keep the whole squad together for the rest of the season.
"We went through a bit of a spell where we had seven or eight players out missing with injury.
"We managed that well and a lot of them players are back now."
"There are a couple of League of Ireland clubs interested and that could change things, but there's nobody coming in that I've talked to.
"But if the lads get an opportunity, they have to take it. It's a step up. I don't know where that is."

Scrunk Music Blends Crunk, Screamo and Auto-Tune
Wesley Yang — September 19, 2009 — Life-Stages
References: mothersagainstbrokencyde.net & myspace
Scrunk, also nicknamed "crunk-core," is the new breed of music sweeping our youth. It seems like a mad experiment combining screamo, best known for its screaming vocals, and crunk, characterized by its looping drum machine rhythms. Despite how strange it sounds, the music is finding its way into more and more iPods--particulary among teens.
On the forefront of this movement is the band brokeNCYDE (pronounced "broke-inside"), who have built a devoted fanbase. They have 9,000 friends on Facebook and over 200,000 fans on MySpace. Not only have they attracted support, but they have hooked the attention of critics as well. Thrash Magazine calls them a "mockery to the world of music." There is even a group called "Mothers Against brokeNCYDE" devoted to defaming the music group.
The group's first full-length release is titled "I'm Not a Fan… But the Kids Like It," which is ironic because it perfectly captures how most people feel towards the music. However, despite the mixed reviews, the album debuted at #86 on the Billboard 200 in July 2009.
Whether you agree with the hundreds of thousands of fans or with the critics who want to bury the genre, scrunk is surely becoming something to watch out for.

Пётр Павлович Ганский (, Николаевка Ананьевского уезда Херсонской губернии (современная Одесская область) — 27 ноября 1942, , Верхняя Вьенна, Новая Аквитания, Франция) — русский художник-импрессионист конца XIX — начала XX века, член Товарищества южнорусских художников и Общества независимых художников в Одессе. Писал пейзажи, портреты, жанровые композиции.

Биография

Детство и юность
Пётр Павлович Ганский родился в семье дворянина Херсонской губернии, Ананьевского уезда, в селе Николаевка (Ганское) 17 февраля 1867 года. Дворянский род Ганских (герб Газдава) обосновался в Новороссии в последней четверти XVIII века во времена правления Екатерины II. Отец, Павел Петрович Ганский, окончил одесский Ришельевский лицей, служил судьёй, работал директором Земского банка Херсонской губернии. С 1870 года семья Ганских большую часть года проводит в Одессе, здесь в этот год родился младший брат Петра Павловича, Алексей Павлович Ганский — впоследствии известный русский астроном и геодезист.

Начальное художественное образование Пётр Ганский получил на рисовальных курсах Петра Александровича Крестоносцева при Елисаветградском земском реальном училище. С 1885 по 1889 год был вольнослушателем Императорской Академии художеств, затем отправился в Париж, чтобы продолжить художественное образование в Национальной высшей школе изящных искусств у Жерома.

Расцвет творчества
Пётр Ганский подолгу живёт во Франции, но регулярно возвращается в Россию, приезжая в Одессу на различные выставки. С 1890 года он участвовал во всех выставках Товарищества южнорусских художников, а с 1894 года он стал членом Товарищества. Также принимал участие в Весенних выставках Академии художеств, выставках Общества Независимых художников в Одессе, Общества французских художников и Общества Независимых в Париже. Водил знакомство с Иваном Буниным и его женой. В своих дневниках последняя называла художника «первым русским импрессионистом», считала ярым юдофобом.
События 1917 года застали Петра Ганского в Одессе. Семейное имение Ганских было разгромлено, а сам он был приговорён большевиками к расстрелу. По тиражируемой самим Ганским при жизни легенде, избежать казни ему удалось благодаря вошедшей в Одессу Добровольческой армии Деникина, однако опубликованные в последние годы документы (в частности протоколы допросов арестованных по одному делу с Ганским) служат частичным подтверждением версии, описанной Верой Николаевной Муромцевой-Буниной — Ганского у ЧК выкупили, все остальные проходившие с ним по делу Русского народно-государственного союза, судя по всему, были расстреляны (включая и родственницу Ганского Андреевскую).

Эвакуировался из Одессы в декабре 1919 года, через Салоники, на английском судне «Рио Пардо».

В эмиграции
С 1920 года навсегда поселяется во Франции, где жила его сестра, Софья Павловна Быстрицкая с мужем, Владимиром Павловичем Быстрицким, и дочерью, Кирой. В 1920 году какое-то время проживал в Париже на улице Виктора Гюго, 67, продолжал работать, совершенствовал своё мастерство. В 1922 году принимает католичество и постригается в монахи. В 1925—1927 годах изучает теологию в Католическом университете Лиона. В 1928 году принимает сан, становится священником Ордена иезуитов византийского обряда в миссии Русского католического апостолата. Его дружба и переписка с Николаем Константиновичем Рерихом способствовала распространению Пакта Рериха среди прелатов Римско-католической церкви, а потом и подписанию этого документа Пием XI.

Став католическим священником, Пётр Павлович Ганский до конца жизни не оставлял занятий живописью, активно помогал русским беженцам во Франции, жертвуя свои картины для благотворительных лотерей, проводимых московским землячеством в Париже.

Смерть и наследие
Петр Павлович Ганский умер в 1942 году в монастырском хосписе в городке Ле-Дора, где и был погребён. После себя он оставил большой архив, целый ряд манускриптов, рукопись фантастического романа «Красная звезда». Большая часть архива хранилась у его сестры и племянницы (Софья Быстрицкая и Кира Веневитинова), после смерти последней (1990) её двоюродные сёстры вывезли архив в Таллин. В 1994 году Одесскому художественному музею они передали более тридцати работ Ганского, в 2004-м — ещё сорок. Таким образом сформировалась самая крупная музейная коллекция работ Петра Ганского — на сегодняшний день в собрании Одесского художественного музея хранятся 84 работы художника.

Сегодня произведения Петра Павловича Ганского украшают собрания Одесского художественного музея, Национального художественного музея Украины, Николаевского художественного музея им. В. В. Верещагина, Дома русского зарубежья им. А. Солженицына и частные коллекции Одессы, Киева, Таллина. В музее Пулковской обсерватории хранятся: портрет выдающегося французского астронома Пьера Жансена, написанный Петром Ганским в 1904 году, и портрет Алексея Павловича Ганского, написанный художником Меламедом Ш. Н.(1911,Одесса-1993,Ленинград) в начале 1950-х.

Q: Forgotten password and ecryptfs I forgot my Ubuntu password. I entered recovery mode and changed the password for my user with passwd as root. I haven't used that machine for a long long time, so I also forgot that my home folder was actually encrypted using ecryptfs. My bad, but I don't have that 32-char long MOUNT passphrase...
What are the options in this case? Have I lost all or is there still a chance to recover?

*

*is there a point to try with ecryptfs-recover-private and try to recall this forgotten LOGIN password which I changed with passwd? Will it return a success code if I eventually manage to find the password at the back of my head?

*if the point above doesn't happen, should I try the solution described here? can't log in after password change (ecryptfs) and run the shadow crack?

Or is there anything else I can do? I wouldn't like to break it more.
Many thanks
UPDATE: I think I found the old password. I am able to unwrap the passphrase. What's the way to go now? Go again root and passwd the user to the old password again or do a rewrap? Which is recommended? I just don't want to screw up things again :)

Alex Lustig's 3-track EP marks more than a release date, it represents a greater expansion into the solo territory Lustig is focusing on. Having built his experience and skill producing for global all-stars like French Montana and Baka Not Nice, singles like "If You Wanna" and "No More" was the start of the glimpse into what to expect from Lustig's sound and style as a soloist. Now, Wave002 inflates and diversifies the realm of sounds that have been introduced to us thus far.
Raised as a classically train pianist in Belgium, the 23-year-old's wide spectrum of influences from different periods of his life seem to be principle to his differentiation and infectious style today. Support from established outlets and millions of plays seemingly reaffirm this vision he's after.

Press Release: NAPABA Statement on the Harvard Admissions Case
Navdeep Singh, Policy Director
202-775-9555; nsingh@napaba.org
WASHINGTON – Late yesterday, Judge Allison D. Burroughs of the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts issued a ruling that upheld the use of race conscious admissions in Students For Fair Admissions v. Harvard. NAPABA applauds the Court for reaffirming that (1) diversity remains a critical and compelling interest for universities to achieve; and (2) the consideration of race as one of many factors in a holistic admissions process is a permissible means to evaluate an individual student's application.
"The ruling makes clear that it is vital for students to be able to share their whole selves when applying to college," said NAPABA President Daniel Sakaguchi. "NAPABA is encouraged that the Court upheld the principle of holistic, race-conscious admissions, recognized that race continues to matter in people's daily lives and experiences, and eloquently underscored the importance diversity in education. While the Court found Harvard did not engage in intentional discrimination against Asian American applicants, NAPABA also supports continuing efforts by colleges and universities to improve their admissions processes, including work to recognize and address implicit bias, so that all parts of a thoughtful and holistic admissions system work together to ensure that all students have equal opportunities free from discrimination."
NAPABA supports efforts to increase diversity, equity, and inclusion in education and the consideration of race as part of a holistic, individualized admissions process.
The National Asian Pacific American Bar Association (NAPABA) is the national association of Asian Pacific American (APA) attorneys, judges, law professors, and law students. NAPABA represents the interests of over 50,000 attorneys and over 80 national, state, and local bar associations. Its members include solo practitioners, large firm lawyers, corporate counsel, legal services and non-profit attorneys, and lawyers serving at all levels of government. NAPABA engages in legislative and policy advocacy, promotes APA political leadership and political appointments, and builds coalitions within the legal profession and the community at large. NAPABA also serves as a resource for government agencies, members of Congress, and public service organizations about APAs in the legal profession, civil rights, and diversity in the courts.

AABANY Provides Anti-Sexual Harassment Training to Community Organizations
The Asian American Bar Association of New York (AABANY) was invited by the Asian American Federation and some of its member agencies – not-for-profit organizations that have substantial Chinese-speaking staff – to help with training their limited-English-proficient staff in their native languages on the prevention of sexual harassment in order to meet the new requirements under the New York State and New York City Human Rights Law.
On behalf of AABANY, Karen Kithan Yau, a co-chair of the Pro Bono and Community Service Committee and Eric Su, a co-chair of the Labor and Employment Law Committee, both of whom are long-time employment lawyers, representing workers and employers respectively, gave three trainings, one in Cantonese Chinese, one in Mandarin Chinese, and one in English. The trainings took place in late September and early October. The training participants included kitchen and housekeeping staff, part-time teachers, museum staff, policy advocates, and an executive director. The discussion was rich, lively, and illuminating.
Every New York State employer is now required to provide sexual harassment training o their employees annually. That means that, as of October 9, 2019, every employer should have provided their first such training. Moreover, the New York State and City laws now protect virtually all employees, including contractors, subcontractors, vendors, consultants or others providing services from sexual harassment in the workplace. Thus the need to provide linguistically and culturally competent instruction is acute. The New York City Human Rights Commission has provided impressive training materials, including online trainings in 11 languages. However, there remain employees who will need training in their native languages. Experienced employment attorneys or skilled trainers of human resources areas who are linguistically and culturally competent will continue to be needed.

In 1955, after moving in the spring to his new studio/home in Manotick, Ontario, A.Y. Jackson, along with his friends Professor and Mrs. H.U. Ross, bought property at Twidale Bay on Lake Superior, near Wawa. From his base at a cabin that was built there, he would explore and sketch on the eastern shore of Lake Superior, and it became one of his regular painting places of the time. This sketch is a fine example of his depictions of the eastern Lake Superior area, in which he captured brightly painted rustic cabins nestled at the lake's edge amid sculpted boulders, with a colourful boat floating off the right edge of the panel. Jackson created sensations of movement through the diagonal sweep of the clouds that rise behind the trees, the vertical undulation of the trees and the gentle rippling in the water that breaks up the reflections in the foreground. Seen as if painted from a boat, Fishing Shacks, Wawa, Ontario shows how keenly Jackson could make the viewer feel the fresh, alive atmosphere of this place.


Can you elaborate? Especially, what do you mean by a macro in quickbase?
There are no macros available in QuickBase. When automations execute they can perform a set of fixed modifications (as implemented by QuickBase) not arbitrary user programmable modifications.
BTW, what do you mean by this: "... SAP in middle of quick base project ..."

There are 12 Pyramid Menthol Flavor reviews in the database.
I've enjoyed this cigarette for many years, however, they seem to be burning much faster. What's changed?
Best cigarettes I have had in the "generic" department at $5 a pack they're extremely budget minded when compared too a Marlboro or Camel with a really pleasant flavor and that "just right" strength I really enjoy them, even moreso than an L&M the menthol is really mild and departs an almost chocolatey/coffeelike aftertaste that I really enjoy, a definite every day smoke for me, pick up a carton on the cheap on the internet and go crazy, only cheaper cigarettes are RYO but I enjoy the availability when you "Just want to smoke" and don't want to roll one up just for a few minutes of pleasure I highly reccomend these too a new smoker because theyre very mild when compared too a Marlboro or Camel (big stars for me since I want something that doesn't give you a sore throat after a few days). Buy a pack if you smoke Lights (I do) but buy the full flavor Pyramids since theyre so mild.
should send 1 coupon for 1 carton a year for free.
Horrible cigarette, at first you think you're getting a nice smooth cig but then you realize with disdain there will be no nicotine buzz, only chemicals to burn your throat and ruin your appetite. I'd rather buy swisher sweets and inhale then smoke another.
I picked these up at 7/11 a few weeks ago. Not too bad, certainly better than some of the other bargain priced brands out there.
Not a bad smoke.. Great for the price. Has a good menthol flavor. Pleasurable..
I actually like this brand of menthol. I smoked it for several years but when I stopped traveling I found it hard to get this for a good price. At the time I was smoking camel turkish jades and my taste buds like this just as good. Only drawback was my girlfriend at the time said the smell it left on me made her nauseous? Regardless of that I love em!
I actually stumbled across Pyramid Menthol on a long drive across the state and I was craving my cigarettes which I aciidentally left at home.I came by a mom-and-pop looking gas station and they just happen to carry this specific brand.I've tried a few menthol brands in the past but curiosity took over.Pyramid menthol was probably the best I've had,it gave an equal share of semi-heavy tobacco taste with a light mint flavor and it burned nice and slow.if i ever see this blend again I'd be surprised.Pyramid lost it's popularity 15 years ago.

You guys haven't heard. The cup is going to be presented by Marinakis and Melisannidis, with special commentary by Alefantos and Tsoukalas.
This is really impressive. They've done this so well.
That is brain dead. You can try the link paok777 posted on page 3 of this thread. No sound though. I've been listening to metropolis.

From THINK PROGRESS LGBT:
In just her first year in office, Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO) has proven to be one of the most socially conservative members of Congress, and today she demonstrated just how intolerant she is of people who do not share her beliefs. In an interview, she and the Family Research Council's Tony Perkins were condemning the Air Force Academy for creating an outdoor worship space that accommodates "Earth-based" religions. Hartzler said she believes that her rabidly conservative brand of Christianity is "the main religion in our country" and condemned any attempt to accommodate "fringe religions":

The Macaca Awards! And the Winners Are…
In this last post about this round of the 1st Semi-Regular Macaca Awards, let's remember what the award is all about. Once again, I will borrow the words of my handsome and talented collaborator, Tengrain, of Mock, Paper, Scissors:
It seems so long ago that George Allen uttered the words that moved a generation (and sank his political career), and forever seared the word Macaca into our collective brain.
And so we honor all that is appalling in American Politics with the First Semi-Regular Macaca Awards.

Well, he *does* appear to have a lot of baggage…
From POLITICAL HOTSHEET at CBS NEWS:
You might not know [George Alan] Rekers, but he has long played a prominent role behind the scenes in the social conservative movement: A member of the founding board of the conservative Family Research Council, Rekers has authored books on how to ensure that children grow up straight.
A Baptist minister and former research fellow at Harvard University, Rekers has testified against gay adoptions and is on the board of National Association for Research & Therapy of Homosexuality, which is focused on helping gay people turn straight.
According to [a Miami] New Times story, by Penn Bullock and Brandon K. Thorp, Rekers was spotted returning from a ten-day trip to Europe with a young man identified as Lucien [the name he uses at the site is Geo], who he allegedly met on a gay website called Rentboy.com.

He *Should* Be on the Extramarital Relations Committee Instead
From The Times-Picayune:
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana Democrats attacked U.S. Sen. David Vitter over his vote Thursday against Secretary of State nominee Hillary Clinton, which Vitter said stemmed from concerns about overseas conflicts of interest.
The Louisiana Republican was the only member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to oppose the nomination, saying Clinton shouldn't run the State Department because of her husband's charitable fundraising overseas.

Haven't had this issue on my 15 yet... but I got it in my 04 with factory bulbs all the time. Then I swapped them out to Sylvania SilverStar Ultra's... and got it even more. The lights in my 04 were by far the best I've had in any vehicle..
Thanks!! I'll give it shot tomorrow morning!
My 06 Silverado lights where fantastic compared to my 15 Sierra projectors. Now the fog lights on my 06 where super bright. I would get people flashing me all the time when they where on. They where all stock no LED's. When I first bought my 15 I drove it at night and I thought they where not working,after 9 years in my 06 lol.
I think all around the fog lights in the OBS we're better. But, I run my fogs all the time when the headlights are on just because. I paid for em, might as well use em. But that doesn't mean the ones on the newer trucks aren't "designed" better for what fog lamps are actually supposed to do. But to me it seems like you see a whole lot more front end in the newer trucks to really notice the fogs on.
I definitely got a flash the other night, and then I came up on a lexus, I could see the person's eyes looking up at my grill in their rearview mirror, it was on a dark country road, was pretty funny lol, well down the road a bit they flickered their lights ahead of them a couple times but I turned off not long after they did that so didn't give them the old flash.
A very small percentage of people do that, a negligible amount.
Here it seems to be common knowledge. I've never been flashed with the fog lights on.
Thats's when you flash them back!
Remember this is America where our automotive lighting laws are from the 1960s. Compared to Europe and other places our lighting requirements are from the Stone Age.
Having owned a lot of Chevy trucks dating back to designs from the late 60s I personally believe the headlights were more of a warning to others that you were trundling along then to actually illuminate your path. I wouldn't go back to sealed beams in any respect for any reason.
GM used to have to upgrade the headlights to reflectors + bulbs on the trucks they sold in Europe back in the 80s and early 90s to comply with European spec. European car makers never had to do that here.
I love my 2011 Silverado but was extremely disappointed with the factory headlights. Keep in mind I work 12's and 3-4 days a week drive to work in the dark 45 minutes and half the year drive home in the dark as well. I upgraded the highbeams to a 9011 bulb and tried a myriad of higher light output bulbs for the H11's. The 9011's are great. Lots more useable light without any sort of HID flamethrower effect going on.
The Silverstar ultra's and some of the GE nighthawks were OK low beam upgrades but I was burning through them in under a year. Yes, I knew not to touch the bulbs. I just put a lot more mileage on in the dark Than most people do. Finally, last spring I followed some advice on the SilveradoSierra forums And spent $100 on some OPT7 LED Fluxbeam X H11 bulbs. These have a much higher light output but a perfect flat line where the light does not go above. LED headlight technology has evolved a lot from the stuff 10 years ago with diodes pointing in every direction blinding everyone. I love mine and while they are a whiter, brighter light they are not blinding.
I get flashed a couple times a week tops. I believe we live in a North American society where people have been conditioned to expect less than great performance from their headlights and also that any light brighter than the pathetic ones their vehicle emits is either someone with their highbeams on or some damn kid with those flamethrower HID headlights.
I've also noticed that a lot of the time the people flashing me are cars and they have dingy older yellow headlights.
I curse at people with HID bulbs blowing out massive amounts of light, off road light and LED bar lights turned on while on the road, misaligned headlights, and always-on-high beam riders as well. However, when someone comes up at me in a newer vehicle with modern, capable, fairly state of the art headlights systems I don't get mad because their light output is better than mine (used to be).
I used to have a picture of my headlights on the wall of my garage showing a nice flat beam pattern. I think my toddler had her way with my phone and that picture along with some others is gone. I'll try to get one if anyone wants to see.
Happened to me the first time immediately after driving off the dealership lot.
Yep. Happens all the time. At night I'm typically driving with a finger on the flasher knob to hit em back with a quickness.
Here is a shot of mine BEFORE the right one was changed. The line is clearly there, the right headlight adjuster gear was broken and was pointing as far down as the light would go. Once changed, they adjusted using the left one for reference. They felt comfortable doing this because the visit before they had it in their adjustment bay with lines painted on the wall. My driveway is slightly slanted downwards so the lights point higher in this pic than on the road. This is low beam.
Flashing them back only proves you have two modes.
If you are being flashed while in low beams, you are being told your low beams are aimed too high. It's obvious your high beams will be too, so flashing back just proves what everyone already knew.
I know that with my 2018 (with LED projectors), off the lot, I got flashed some (not much); but even more, I noticed that my high beams were lighting way too high in the air and not getting down the road enough. I lowered both sides, and the result are I never get flashed, get more light 30-50 yards out in low beams, and have much better down the road throw on high beams.
So getting flashed might be a good indicator you are wasting light into the air where it does no good.
It seems like the factory maybe bad at aiming headlights on these trucks?
Surprisingly I seem to be one of the few who like the old style lights. You never had a problem determining your high beams from lows. Even when someone was coming at you on an incline. If you're alone can't see turn on your highs problem solved. If someone coming at you both with lows on you can see. You could always slow down too. I never had a problem until these new lights came along. I dread driving at night on two lane roads going up a hill and the approaching vehicle thinks I have my highs on. Never had the problem with the old head lights. I generally have my highs on even if I don't need them so when I approach a car they see me go to lows.
I have the same problem with my 2017 Sierra . My truck is stock. Its not all the time when it happens . I just flash them back.

Q: Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9} I'm in the middle of a "swing" migration from Windows SBS 2003 to Server 2003 Standard.
It's going okay so far but we're getting event 1058 on client machines:
Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=Edgebyte,DC=local. The file must be present at the location <\ourdomain.local\sysvol\ourdomain.local\Policies{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini>. (The system cannot find the path specified. ). Group Policy processing aborted.
Logon works fine but no group policies are being applied anywhere.
Looking back at the original SBS box, if you go into Group Policy Management you get "file not found" messages whenever you try to right click on a GPO and click Edit. I suspect this has been broken for a long time (part of the point of the migration is to replace the hardware, which is suspect).
We don't care about keeping any of the group policies (there aren't that many anyway) - so I just need to know how to remove all the group policies from Server 2003 standard, and regenerate the contents of the Policies folder in sysvol, so we can start again with a clean slate.
Any takers?
Tom

A: Problems with Swing Migration usually center around AD replication and the NTFRS service not working correctly. On a SBS server, which is typically stand-alone and doesn't replicate anything, these problems can go unnoticed for a long time with virtually no ill effect - until you add another domain controller into the network then the synchronization issues suddenly come into sharp relief. Check the event log for any problems with NTFRS, you need to hunt them down and eliminate them all, or you will never be able to swing.
Once NTFRS is working, I would try to use the Group Policy Management Console on the original SBS server to delete the policies. Then replicate AD with the policies already deleted to your new server. It's no good trying to just delete the files, the items need to be removed from Active Directory. Jeff Middleton at SBS Migration is a fellow SBS MVP and he is very good at sorting out these problems, he's seen most of them before. Use your included support incidents or buy some more, it'll be money well spent.

Pick a Flavor of Fiat 1500
Fiat 1500 Berlina was the most popular variant from the bunch. © Clay, Flickr
In an attempt to seem witty and clever, car journalists often draw on national stereotypes and clichés when writing about cars. They describe German cars as technical and precise up to the point when they're almost boring, while an Italian exotic is often compared to a double shot of espresso. Unfortunately, this is one of those articles. Here I compare the different versions of Fiat 1500 to Italian gelato.
Vanilla Berlina
The vast majority of almost 2 million Fiat 1500 produced were regular saloons (Berlina) or station wagons (Familiare). Just like the vanilla ice cream, Fiat 1500 Berlina is a safe and widely available option. That is not to say the car is boring, it comes with a snappy 1.5 liter engine, front disc brakes and four speed gearbox. There was also an entry level Fiat 1300, propelled by a 1.3 engine, but otherwise almost identical to the 1500. Despite being originally marketed as a mid-size family car, Fiat 1500 is adorably compact and its charming Italian design bring smiles everywhere it goes. It makes for a truly sweet package.
The first version of 1500 was presented in 1961, but the car was revised in 1964. The newer version is called 1500 C and sports a bit longer wheelbase, while its power was bumped up from 75 to 80 horsepower.
As you may well know, Fiat loves selling licenses to their cars and Fiat 1500 is no exception. Derivatives of 1500 were built long after Fiat ceased the model's production in 1967, Yugoslavian Zastava 1500 went on until 1979. Polish Fiat 125P inherited many of 1500's mechanical bits and was produced by FSO until 1991. They can be considered as alternatives for the original 1500 now.
Mint Cabriolet
Perhaps you fancy something fresher? Then the drop top version of 1500 may be the one for you. Styled by Pininfarina, the 1500 Cabriolet looks like a scaled-down version of Ferrari 250 PF. In the engine bay you'd find a 1.5 liter motor, coupled to either a 4 speed or 5 speed gearbox driving the rear wheels. It is a curious mix of the older Pininfarina Spider model and the new engine from the 1500.
There was also a considerably more potent engine option offered in the same roadster body, marketed under a 1500 S or 1600 S moniker. These cars are powered by what is known as the OSCA engine, a detuned racing unit from OSCA MT4 racecar developed by Maserati brothers. These cars can be differentiated by different fascia and they came with twin Weber carbs and four disc brakes.
Just like mint gelato, this little Italian roadster may not be perfect for all occasions, but it is certainly rewarding on the right day. This simple combo of two seats, canvas top and rear wheel drive is a sure way of delivering driving thrills.
Stracciatella Coupe
Lastly we have the Fiat 1500 coupe, a happy medium between the frugal saloon and fun but unpractical convertible. Just like stracciatella, the coupe is a bit special indulgence, yet still an undeniable classic. It's significantly rarer than the rest of 1500 line up, only around 2200 Pininfarina-styled coupes left the factory. Part of the reason why so few of these cars were built was the high asking price, they were around 25% costlier than comparable saloons. Pretty looks cost a pretty penny. These days, the coupes are still the ones retaining the highest value.
Just like with the cabriolet, spicier versions with OSCA engines are available in coupe bodies, complete with twin carburetors and four wheel disc brakes. In this case they are also called 1500 S and 1600 S.
If you're looking for a Fiat 1500, Either of the two models will set you back around EUR 10,000 in good condition, while pristine examples can cost 2-3 times more. Meanwhile, the coupes are even costlier still. That being said, a Fiat 1500 will surely make your life sweeter.

Some time in 1988: Wearing my lets go and see the family member who I have seen for years clothing and Ramona also, dressed to look like we were the perfect single mothered family. My mother dressed in clothing I had no idea she owned anything like so and her very close friends Janeta, dressed like the bad girl I knew my mother was. No, she wasn't a bad girl she, but she did like to take us to a lot of parties and get togethers that Ramona's father's side of the family like to keep. Aunt Gee and Aunt Ceecee were always having some function, whether it be for a child's birthday, their own or some marriage. Getting into the cab driving for what seemed hours and me having to be strapped in the middle of my mum and sister. My mum was always afraid of me being next to the passenger doors after that time I opened the door whilst the car was still moving. That wasn't the first time and I'm sure I had done it more time after.
We all arrive at Aunt Juju's home in west London and before ringing the bell, my mother I remember clamps her hand on mine and tells me t be well behaved, "Don't touch anything and don't question her. Just show her you beautiful smile" she says to me, Janeta rubs my shoulder and Ramona nudges me. It's not that I'm a bad kid, I just get bored easily.
"Hello, my lovely. Oh look at you Ramona and Rogue look how you are growing, you want a sweety?" Tall, round, plump and curly haired Aunt Juju smiles her toothy smile that scares me and hell I do want some sweets, but I have to decline politely as Mummy dearest says they make me hyperactive, whatever that's meant to mean. "No, thank you. Where the toilet is mummy?" looking around the dark house, are they trying to save on electricity? Must be. in the passage doors, so many doors leading to so many different places I am yet to venture day. My mum shows me the way and closes the door behind me. I hear laughter and Ramona's fake sweet girl voice undertone that of Janeta's rough ghetto voice replying to Uncle Michael. Uncle Michael makes me laugh he is so tall and skinny, he looks like a long piss stain on a white wall with smudges of charcoal for his beard, eyebrows and hair, dress always in shirt and jumper combinations and trousers, always grey trousers. "I'm finished!" I scream out and swing the door open just to see my mum there waiting for me like I'm some lethal prisoner she can't trust.
"I told you don't start with me today" grabbing me by the shoulders she fixes my clothes and walks me to the family room. Snooker table, who the hell has a snooker table in their house? Aunt Jujube and Michael that's who and wow look at the size of that TV, I'm sure if I rock it a little bit it would fall on top of me and break something, better not then. I can smell that old black peoples smell that my Granny and Grandad's house has. Why is it that all black people have that same smell if they are from where we are from and white people's homes always smell of laundry and washing up liquid and Indian people, well you know they always smell of curry and spice, even when they're not at home the smell sticks to them like pritstick? The adults go into the kitchen leaving me and Ramona alone.
"Put the TV on then, yeah?" bouncing on the doily sofa I'm pleading Ramona to crank up the entertainment. "No, mum said you can't touch anything." She says to me holding my hands on my lap in some attempt in stopping my bunny rabbit bottom bouncing. Well, okay then so I guess I'm going to have to find something else to occupy my time in this 'Tales of the Crypt' house then.
Uncle Michael comes in the room holding a very craved out small glass with some brown drink in it, I did ask if I could have some but he said it was 'A big people's drink' stupid doodoo head. They all arrive back from the kitchen and the show around the house.
Where am I? Why has every one stopped doing what they are doing and why are they as still and cold as ice? I'm not to sure why stand and the end of the snooker table. They are all frozen, time has stopped, I can play and prance around seeing as nobody is doing anything and then sit back down. I want to play snooker. "What has he done!" Aunt Jujube shouts out and begins chatting in Creole. Oh dear they weren't frozen after all, just observing the room and glass on the floor from the TV and inside the TV lay there the orange snooker ball I wanted to play with and am very sure I didn't get the chance to. My mum pulls me to the bedroom and the lashings begin. Oops I Bust the screen out of her TV!

Iranian Security Agents 'Forbid Commemoration' Of Dissidents' Murder
Parastou Foruhar, daughter of murdered nationalists Dariush Foruhar and Parvaneh Eskandari, says she will continue to make formal protests to celebrate the anniversary of her parents' deaths.
The daughter of assassinated Iranian dissidents Dariush Forouhar and Parvaneh Eskandari has been prevented from marking the anniversary of their death, RFE/RL's Radio Farda reports.
Parastou Forouhar told RFE/RL on November 17 that security agents did not allow her to commemorate the 12th anniversary of her parents' murders in Tehran. "They told me that holding any kind of ceremony to commemorate my parents is forbidden," Forouhar said.
Prominent political activists Forouhar and Eskandari were stabbed to death at their home in 1998. Their assassination was followed by the murders of a number of Iranian dissidents and intellectuals, which later came to be known as the "chain murders of Iran."
In early 1999, during Mohammad Khatami's presidency, the Iranian Intelligence Ministry announced that the killings were committed "arbitrarily" by its own "rogue agents."
Parastou Forouhar, who lives in Germany, travels to Iran every year on the anniversary of her parents' death. She told RFE/RL that as in past years, her passport was confiscated upon her arrival at the airport without any reason being given.
Forouhar added that for the past six years, it has been forbidden to commemorate her parents not just publicly, but also at their home, which people call "the house of freedom."
"I have made a formal protest and will continue doing so. This is unjust, as the murder of my parents was a catastrophe," Forouhar said.

Q: Why were Death-Eaters called Death-Eaters? Why are Death-Eaters called Death-Eaters? What does their name mean?

A: Voldemort's followers were called "Death Eaters" because one of Voldemort's key goals was to use magic to fully control Death, directing its powers at Voldemort's sole command. Voldemort sees this as the sign of ultimate power, which is his foremost goal; to be the most powerful sorcerer ever.
Obviously, killing (directing Death toward others) is easy; it's preventing Death from turning on you that's tricky. The third leg of the triangle formed by the Hallows, recalling others from Death, was never of interest to Voldemort, and even the Resurtrection Stone didn't really do that.
The name, therefore, arose from what being one of Voldemort's disciples means at a fundamental level. It means that you believe in Voldemort's philosophy, that mortality is a weakness of lesser beings, and that to become truly powerful, you must fear neither dealing death or succumbing to it; in the vernacular, you "eat Death for breakfast".

A: According to J.K. Rowling, the Death Eaters rose out of a group known as the Knights of Walpurgis, and she shared this in an interview with the BBC:

"'...in here is the history of the Death Eaters and I don't know that I'll ever actually need it - but at some point - which were once called something different - they were called the Knights of Walpurgis...'" - J.K. Rowling.
BBC Newsnight, Thursday, 19 June, 2003, J.K. Rowling: The Interview via Mugglenet

The Knights of Walpurgis was a play on Walpurgis Knight: Walpurgis Night (in German folklore) the night of April 30 (May Day's eve), when witches meet on the Brocken mountain and hold revels with the Devil... (Oxford Phrase & Fable) The Knights of Walpurgis by Cindy Eric at Mugglenet.
Anyhow, that's the history of the Knights of Walpurgis, who preceded the Death Eaters. The most common theory I've heard regarding why Voldemort's followers are called the Death Eaters is that it is a reflection of Voldemort's self-loathing of his own status as a half-blood. Like Hitler, Voldemort set out to obliterate all those who exhibited traits he hated in himself. Why his followers are called Death Eaters specifically is, as far as I know, not addressed by J.K. Rowling anywhere. And how the name "Death Eater" arose from "Knight of Walpurgis" is equally puzzling.

A: Their name comes indirectly from Christian symbolism.  (See the books of John Granger for a thorough exploration of this symbolism in the Harry Potter books.)
There's a long Christian tradition of calling the Body and Blood of Christ, the Eucharist, "the medicine of immortality"; it goes back to St Ignatius in the last first or early second century.  If the Eucharist is the medicine of immortality, then those who eat it are partaking of life, and could be called Life Eaters.  Then those who pursue immortality by another course, by way of murder and evil, could be contrasted by calling them Death Eaters.

A: They were called 'Death Eaters' because Voldemort's life goal was to kill muggleborn witches and wizards before he changed his interest to Harry Potter. His followers killed anyone in their way or anyone who stood up for HP. (Not everyone but you get the point.) I assume that their name 'Death Eaters' was because they killed lots of people which was effectively like eating because they did it frequently? And they 'ate' death by doing it a lot. Sorry if this makes no sense. If anyone knows what I mean and can edit it to make more sense that would be greatly appreciated.


In 3-quart saucepan, cook and drain ravioletti as directed on package. Rinse with cold water to cool; drain.
In large bowl, toss all ingredients and ravioletti. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until serving time.
Meat, cheese and ravioletti make this salad a hearty one-dish meal. Substitute regular ravioli, if desired.

The new round of PointBreaks applies to 150 hotels globally, with the majority in the USA, and the full list of properties are set out below. However, bookings cannot be made until Monday 24 November 2014, for stays from 24 November 2014, to February 28 2015.
You will be able to access the offers via this link, but be aware that until Monday this contains only the current PointBreaks deals, not the new ones.
You can book at the 5000 points rate for as many nights as you want, but if you then cancel any night, the whole remaining stay will reprice to the standard rate, not the 5000 point rate. You can't get round this by segmenting your bookings, as it's a maximum of 2 bookings per person per hotel.
If you're interested, I made up a map of all the IHG Point Breaks hotels since it was hard for me to see exactly where all the hotels were located.


Dinesh Karthik – Lucky again?
If you are following the India – Sri Lanka cricket series, you would have noticed that Dinesh Karthik has yet again been lucky to be included in the squad – or actually is it mere coincidence?
One key factor that has been mentioned is that Kris Srikkanth is the selector and that could be a main reason why Dinesh Karthik is getting his chances again and again.
Coincidentally, Dhoni has been suspended for two matches and that has also given Karthik yet another opportunity to play.
In the last match, he was very good in giving Sachin Tendulkar a good support helping India go through the formalities of completing the win without any other hiccups.
With Yuvraj also out and Dhoni sitting out for another match, we have to wait and see if Karthik makes best use of this opportunity.
We do know Rahul Dravid once called him a thinking cricketer, but lets see if he makes best use of this chance.
