Considering wood as a construction material for houses or bookshelves, it can occur in one moment that we notice a board leaning against a wall. Here, the story about the collection of AFDL furniture begins. A board leaning up the wall under a certain angle is the main element of the design. A show of light and shadows then outlines a silhouette of two lamps.
The cutting has an attached shade with a light bulb and a switch. The element of the leaning board functions as the back and the headrest of the bed. The illuminants themselves make the borders between two-dimensional and three-dimensional forms disappear.

Community 1.20: "The Science of Illusion"
"Nice frame job, Brittadict Arnold."
So, I kind of forgot to blog this episode back when it originally aired. I'm glad I finally got to see it, though. I thought it was freaking hilarious- easily one of the series' funniest episodes to date. It was an April Fools themed episode, and there was definitely a lot of foolishness going on. What was great about it (besides being really funny) was that much of the foolishness also illuminated character. That's something all the best sitcoms need to be able to do. I like my sitcoms with equal doses of laughs and heart.
The Dean wants Greendale's students to handle April Fools in the way he wants them to handle everything- as inoffensively as possible. He's even had pamphlets made up to advise them of approved pranks. The pamphlet says Greendale will be hiring extra security for the event, and Annie and Shirley think that sounds like fun. Meanwhile, Jeff is already on his way to conducting a non-approved prank. Pierce comes into the study room cheerfully talking about how his "Buddhist group" (cough…crazy cult…cough) is having a ceremony to make him a Level Six Laser Lotus this coming weekend. Thanks to Jeff's quick thinking and Abed's quick trip to the theatre department, the gang soon has Pierce thinking he's the proud owner of a Level Six robe…aka a wizard's robe complete with stars and moons.
At first, whenever the rest of the study group is talking about April Fools, Britta starts on one of her preachy speeches about how it degrades people and such. She's accused of being a buzzkill, and it definitely gets to her. She decides to pull the most inoffensive April Fools prank possible- she wants to prove you can pull a prank while still treating people with respect. The prank will involve Britta going to the science store room and getting a frog. She plans to dress the frog in a mini sombrero that says "Señor Chang" and place it on Chang's desk before Spanish class. Britta tells Jeff her idea and Jeff thinks it sounds pretty lame.
Annie and Shirley get deputized into Campus Security by the Dean. Abed's DVR is broken, so he decides to watch Annie and Shirley's security adventures for fun instead. He wonders aloud which one of them is going to be the hard ass of the typical buddy cop show pairing. Both Annie and Shirley want that role, and they go to ridiculous lengths to prove it. Somebody has pushed over a sign on the Greendale campus, and investigating it is Annie and Shirley's first assignment. They try to outdo each other being aggressive in their questioning as Abed looks on while happily snacking. The Dean tells them they have to solve this case if they want to stay deputized.
Britta's prank doesn't go at all as planned. She gets her frog and puts the sombrero on it but then, as frogs tend to do, it jumped away. To make matters worse, when she tries to catch the frog again, she accidentally knocks a gurney with a cadaver on it (I thought those were just for med school…don't look at me like that! I'm a lawyer, which means I avoided taking any science classes in college!). To make the situation even worse, the cadaver flies through a window, making quite a few Greendale students freak out.
The Dean is not happy that such disgusting shenanigans happened on Annie and Shirley's watch. He is incapable, however, of chewing them out about it, so Abed steps in. Abed becomes the stereotypical movie police chief, which made me start thinking about HIMYM. Particularly, the episode "Murtaugh," where inspired by Murtaugh from the Lethal Weapon movies, Ted makes a list of stuff he's "too old for." Abed even says he's "too old for this" in his rant. He sounded just like the Laser Tag manager who kicks Barney out in the beginning of that episode. "Murtaugh" is one of my favorites, so anything that reminds me of it makes me happy. I find it fascinating that even though he has trouble relating to other people, Abed can draw from pop culture to do things others are afraid to do.
Annie and Shirley's security detail scenes were funny all the way through the episode. I especially liked a scene where Jeff is suspected of the whole frog/cadaver fiasco, and Annie opens his backpack to find all sorts of items to confirm the story (like other small stereotypical Mexican paraphernalia to go with the sombrero). Jeff first says that Britta is trying to frame him, but then he makes a run for it, and Annie and Shirley aren't very successful following him in their little Security golf cart. The chase is hilarious with Jeff jumping over a wall and Shirley getting the cart stuck because of two poles separating the parking lot from an athletic field. Words can't really do it justice here- it was a great bit of physical comedy that ends with Annie accidentally getting caught in the mist of her own pepper spray.
With Abed's talking-to in mind, however, Annie and Shirley realize they need to band together to solve this "crime" and get back in the Dean's good graces. They confront Jeff back in the study room, who still maintains that Britta framed him. Things get more than a little out of hand with Annie slamming Jeff's head against the table repeatedly and Shirley brandishing a pizza cutter. The threat of real violence prompts Britta to finally fess up. She wanted to do the prank because she was sick of being the buzzkill, but she only made things worse. In typical kind-of-sappy-but-not-overly-so Community fashion, the group tells Britta that she doesn't need to change. They see her as the heart of the group more than the buzzkill. Oh, and Pierce totally realized those robes (which he wore throughout the episode complete with a cookie wand…long story) weren't really from his "religious group." He failed the Level 6 test, and he was embarrassed by that, so he went along with the joke.

Brandi Glanville Is 'Disappointed' She Was Not Asked Back For Season 11 Of RHOBH!
iRealHousewives May 01, 2021
Brandi Glanville reveals why she was disappointed to learn that Bravo didn't ask her to come back to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills following her drama with Denise Richards last season.
"I was disappointed, honestly, because I felt like I really gave them their season," Brandi told Entertainment Tonight. "They used the few times that I shot, like in the trailer and every commercial. I didn't make very much money. I really thought maybe they're going to ask me to come back, because I did so much for that season, and it's just been crickets. No one's reached out to me. Not anyone to say 'yes' or 'no.' I would've thought I would've gotten a phone call and been like, 'Listen, we're going to go another route, but thanks…' from anyone."
"I just felt like it was kind of crappy," she continues. "I had had conversations in the past about coming back, [Andy Cohen] and I had. He's like, 'Maybe after [Lisa Vanderpump] leaves, and we'll look into that.' And then Lisa left and then really, unfortunately, her mom and brother passed, and they were like, 'Listen, we don't want to pour salt in her wounds.' And I'm like, I don't either, but I want a job."
The mother-of-two thinks her "Housewives days are done" after not getting a call for season 11, and that the writing was a little bit on the wall when production canceled her appearance at the season 10 virtual reunion the morning of filming. Brandi believes Denise threatened to pull out of the taping if Brandi showed up on the screen.
"Which makes me like, why?" Brandi asked. "You can walk away from the camera the second you see me. There's no point. Like, in the same room I would be like, 'I don't want to be around Brandi.' But if I come on screen, she could walk away. You know?"
"There was no closure for me," she added. "There was no closure for the audience or the other women, and I felt like it was selfish of her to not be honest, because that's what you sign up to do on a reality show. And if you have skeletons or something, they will come out, as we all know."
Glanville insists her intention was never to expose Denise Richards on-camera over their alleged affair.
"It had happened the season before with Denise, where I wasn't shooting," she said. "And if I wanted to, I could have just said, 'Hey, put me on the show. I have something to say.' But I really thought that Denise and I had a connection. I thought we were friends. I was wrong."
Brandi says Denise "ghosted" her after their alleged encounter, and Brandi claims she felt "extorted" by the situation because Denise allegedly warned her that if her husband, Aaron Phypers, ever found out about the incident, "he'll kill you."
"I felt like a cheater, and I hate cheaters," she told Entertainment Tonight. "So [production] asked me to come back and film -- they did not know anything about what happened with Denise, and I wasn't even sure I was going to talk about it. But all of a sudden, Denise is, like, calling me, texting me. She's my best friend again, talking s**t about all the other ladies. And I'm like, you're just as bad. Like, I was thinking to myself, you're fake. You're all of a sudden my friend, because you know I'm filming? But when I wasn't filming, you just let me hang out to dry with this secret that I had to keep, that was killing me because I don't like secrets."

Is it good news that the SSA is getting fewer SSDI applications?
On behalf of posted in Social Security Disability on Thursday, June 28, 2018.
Claims for Social Security Disability Insurance in Georgia and elsewhere have been on the rise for nearly two decades. This has put considerable pressure on the Social Security Disability Insurance program's ability to deliver services and benefits to the claimants who need them. Moreover, it led to a rapid depletion of the funds earmarked to pay those benefits - funds withheld from workers' wages by the federal government.
How much longer can the SSDI program survive?
On behalf of posted in Social Security Disability on Friday, June 22, 2018.
In Georgia and across the United States, workers have spent much of their lives paying into a program that is designed to protect them if they become sick or disabled and can no longer work. Worker contributions to the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program are held in a trust fund that is separate from the fund for retirement benefits, known as Old Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI). Unfortunately, both trust funds are in danger of insolvency unless something is done quickly.
On behalf of posted in Social Security Disability on Thursday, June 7, 2018.
When someone is injured or becomes ill and is unable to work, it can be a financial disaster. One program available to help workers who have become disabled is Social Security Disability Insurance. The SSDI program is administered by the Social Security Administration and is funded by a portion of the funds withheld from workers' wages. Unfortunately, not all disabled workers will qualify for SSDI benefits.
On behalf of posted in Social Security Disability on Friday, June 1, 2018.
Because the application process can be daunting for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) claimants, an experienced attorney can be of great help. An attorney can be of particular assistance if SSD benefits are initially denied and an appeal is necessary. In fact, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has found that claimants who are represented at appeal hearings are three times more likely to prevail than their unrepresented counterparts.


All 95 Coca-Cola vending machines on the main campus and law center have been upgraded to be compatible with payments by credit card, Apple Pay or Google Wallet in addition to payments by cash and GoCard.
You can now buy your soda with a credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay at vending machines on Georgetown University's main campus and the Georgetown University Law Center.
Previously, vending machines only accepted cash or GOCards as forms of payment. The change, which began in October, is the result of a collaboration between University Information Services, Auxiliary Business Services and the companies that own the vending machines — Coca-Cola and Canteen.
So far, all 95 Coca-Cola vending machines on the main campus and the law center have been upgraded. Of 49 Canteen machines on the main campus and the law center, 33 have received new payment capabilities. The upgrades will be finished by the end of November.
Auxiliary Services Director of Business Operations Loren Sumerlin said the primary reason the university added new payment capabilities was to make it easier for those who may not carry cash or their GOCards.
UIS Chief Engineer and Senior Director of Enterprise Services Marty Johnson said the process of updating the machines was complex. In fact, the vending machine changes spurred an upgrade to Georgetown's GOCard system earlier than anticipated.
New card readers on every vending machine allow for the integration of new forms of payment, according to Johnson. Each payment reader needs to simultaneously transmit information to a GOCard server and a Coca-Cola server that processes credit card transactions and other forms of payment. UIS collaborated with Coca-Cola and Canteen in order to integrate these two systems.
The cost of the new readers will fall on Coca-Cola and Canteen rather than Georgetown. Associate Vice President for Auxiliary Services Joelle Wiese said she is unaware of the exact cost of the upgrades.
Part of the reason Georgetown began discussions with the companies to upgrade the vending machine payment capabilities was a desire to stay up-to-date with technology trends, according to Wiese.
Wiese said that over the past few years, vending machines have experienced flat sales around campus, necessitating the removal of a few and adding to the decision to install new payment capabilities. However, despite a lower number of vending machines, Wiese noted that new food options like The Hilltoss and Bulldog Tavern have opened to replace them.
So far, there has not been much feedback for the new credit card readers, according to Summerlin. However, he said that from everything he has heard, as well as his own experience with the machines, the reception can only be positive.
According to Aditya Pande (SFS '18), the new readers on the vending machines appear to take more time to process, but the increased convenience is worth the delays.

We are excited to be teaming up with the Musicians' Union and The Ivors Academy for a series of events that we hope will be inspiring and empowering. These events are designed for attendees at all points in their careers – whether they have just written their first song or released their fiftieth. As a membership organisation, we don't just collect royalties. We're also here for creators to turn to for advice and education on the music business.
Daniel Jones, PRS for Music Outreach Manager for the North of England
With so many creators choosing a DIY route to making a career in music, it's important that they know organisations like ours are here to support them. I'm pleased to be collaborating on these workshops and look forward to sharing our in-depth knowledge with as many artists and songwriters as we can.
Barry Dallman, Musicians' Union Regional Officer, North East of England
We are excited to take part in this series of events to equip creators with vital information to understand the different ways music can generate revenue and sustain a career. Supporting and educating songwriters and composers in this way is fundamental to our mission cultivating the next generation of creative talent and helping them succeed in the music business.

Q: How to encode VALUES constant table expression in esqueleto? In a Yesod application using the Esqueleto EDSL, I desire to perform an anti-join with a table living in Haskell.
In pure PostgreSQL, the query would look like this:
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE antijoin_demo (x INT);
INSERT INTO antijoin_demo (x)
  VALUES (2),(4),(6),(8),(10),(12),(14),(16),(18)
;

SELECT *
FROM
 antijoin_demo
 FULL OUTER JOIN
 (VALUES (3),(6),(9),(12),(15),(18)) AS t(y)
 ON x = y
WHERE x IS NULL OR y IS NULL
ORDER BY x,y
;

The result being: 2,3,4,8,9,10,14,15,16, which are all numbers that only occur in one of the two tables, but not the numbers 6,12,18 which are contained in both tables.
The problem is that the List [3,6,9,12,15,18] is not contained in my DB, but is only a Haskell list. Unfortunately, esqueleto does not seem to have VALUES as a table expression?
The function Database.Esqueleto.valList only allows me to compute one side of the full anti-join like so:
-- Model:
MyTable
  x Int

-- Code:
do
  let xs = [2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18]
      ys = [3,6,9,12,15,18] -- not a constant, but computed in Haskell, outside the DB
  runDB $ mapM_ (insert_ . MyTable) xs
-- Esqueleto Query:
  zs <- runDB $ select $ do
    xs <- from $ table @MyTable
    where_ $ (xs ^. MyTableX `E.notIn` E.valList ys)
    return xs

So this returns all numbers from the DB table MyTable that are not contained in the Haskell list ys, i.e. [2,4,8,10,14,16].
How do I compute the other half of the anti-join with esqueleto, i.e. the numbers from the Haskell list ys which are not inside the DB MyTable, i.e. [3,9,15]?
Of course, a workaround would be to read the entire Table MyTable into Haskell Memory and compute the anti-join with Data.Set operations, but this somewhat defeats the purpose of the DB.
Another workaround bould be to write ys into another table, but I am not sure how to use temporary tables with esqueleto either.
I expect both MyTable and ys to be large (hundred-thousands) and the resulting differences to be small (less than a dozen).

A: Thanks to @JosephSible, the solution was using the values function, which is only contained in the PostgreSQL module.
For completeness, here is the anti join code:
-- Code:
do
  let xs = [2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18]
      ys = [3,6,9,12,15,18] -- not a constant, but computed in Haskell, outside the DB
      ys' = fromList (val <$> ys) -- don´t forget to apply val to elements
  runDB $ mapM_ (insert_ . MyTable) xs
-- Esqueleto Query:
  zs <- runDB $ select $ do
    (x :& y) <- from $
      table @MyTable
      `fullOuterJoin`
      values ys'
      `on` (\(x :& y) -> x ?. MyTableX ==. y)
    where_ $ (isNothing (x ?. MyTableX) ||. isNothing y)
    return (x ?. MyTableX, y)

where zs :: [(Value (Maybe Int), Value (Maybe Int))]
It would be nice, if zs could somehow be returned with Either instead of a Pair of Maybes, but this is a minor detail.

Q: Recordkeeping, record keeping, or record-keeping In the following sentence, a reviewer claimed that record keeping is a spelling error that should be corrected to recordkeeping.

Service providers shall manage information using agreed upon metadata tags that can be adapted to changing missions and record keeping practices.

My dictionary (and Dictionary.com) list recordkeeping as a noun only, so I am inclined to say that the spelling should be record-keeping since the term serves as an adjective (I would use record keeping for the verb form). I can find no "definitive" source to cite.
In a Google query, at least one Yahoo Answers article agrees with me, but I could probably find ones that do not. This article also claims that recordkeeping is a financial term not widely used in other contexts. A Google ngram search doesn't resolve the issue, but record keeping is more popular.
What is the preferred spelling in the quoted sentence? Is recordkeeping a financial term? Does anyone have a source I can cite in my response to the commenter other than Yahoo Answers?

A: I think it's a mistake to characterize as "a spelling error" a decision that I may happen to disagree with about whether to hyphenate, leave open, or close up a term such as record keeping. The dispute is over the style of presentation of the term, not its spelling; and the preference of the author or publishing house is about as deep as you can fruitfully go in inquiring into its legitimacy.
Is E-mail misspelled? How about Email? Or e-mail? Or email? Or for that matter, E mail or e mail? The answers, I believe, are no, no, no, no, and no no. Some forms may be clearer than others in certain circumstances (as Edwin Ashworth points out in a comment above), some may be generally less common (and therefore less immediately recognizable to a reader), and one may have won the heart of its writer or editor—but nobody can seriously argue that any of these spellings is generally susceptible to being mistaken for any other term.
The same is true of record keeping, record-keeping, and recordkeeping in your sentence:

Service providers shall manage information using agreed upon metadata tags that can be adapted to changing missions and record keeping [or record-keeping or recordkeeping] practices.

Given the choice, I would probably use recordkeeping or record-keeping to avoid giving readers even the slightest pause to confirm that record isn't being used as an adjective in the sense of "all-time high" or "never-before-achieved," but I have no doubt that any competent reader of English prose will understand the intended meaning of the phrase "record keeping practices" regardless of how record and keeping are attached or separated.

A: Upkeeping, goalkeeping, housekeeping, recordkeeping.  Seems like the precedent has been set. I can't think of any type of "keeping" that is stand-alone, or has an adjective independent from the noun "keeping" that can't be combined to form one word.

A: According to the grammarbook site's page on hyphens (http://www.grammarbook.com/punctuation/hyphens.asp), rule 1 states that you should hyphenate. That's my take anyway.

A: record keeping is the way it is usually said.

A: As an FYI, neither recordkeeping nor record-keeping are in the
Merriam-Webster or American Heritage dictionaries. Therefore, record keeping is probably the correct way to spell this word.

What Do You Do If Your Spouse Takes Your Children Out Of The Country And Won't Return?
What do you do if your spouse takes your children out of the U.S. and won't return them? You may believe that your spouse is planning to divorce you and trying to go forum shopping, looking for a court that will grant him or her exclusive custody of the kids and cut you off from them entirely. If he or she was born in the other country or has strong family ties there, you might be right. You need to act fast, in order to get the courts in both countries to act on your behalf. Here's what you should know.
More than 70 countries are signatories to the International Treaty on Child Abduction, also known as the Hague Convention. As long as the country your children are in is one of them, you stand a good chance of getting your children returned to you.
The Hague Convention was specifically designed to prevent parents from trying to use the courts of one country to circumvent the courts of another. The Treaty's goals include returning children to their usual residences and restoring whatever custody status and parental access was in place before the children were taken.
Don't try to negotiate with your spouse on your own, hoping that you can get him or her to voluntarily return to the U.S. with your children. You could end up accidentally giving your spouse an affirmative defense. An affirmative defense allows your spouse to allege that the circumstances of the situation make his or her actions okay.
In the case of a Hague Convention violation, the circumstances of a case can weigh very heavily in the court's decision for or against you. Not taking legal action immediately after you find out that your children have been taken outside of the country could be considered a sign that you either consented or acquiesced to the move at the time and have just changed your mind since.
A delay can also give your spouse another way to avoid returning your children: if enough time passes that your children become "well-settled" in their new country, then the Hague Convention can permit your spouse to keep them there. It could also be interpreted as a lack of significant involvement on your behalf with your children, which is another affirmative defense under the Hague Convention.
Instead, spend your time working with an attorney (such as Andrew H P Norton) to gather evidence that refutes any defense your spouse is offering. If your spouse has relocated to a country that isn't a signatory to the Hague Convention you may need to arrange for legal representation both here and abroad to fight for custody.

When I began my career in broadcasting, I was a one man band. I was the news director of a small Christian radio station in Rockford, Illinois.
I would get up at 3 a.m., head to the police station to scan the police reports from the previous 24 hours, then get to the station to begin scanning the wire services, writing my stories and editing my sound bites for the news that morning.
After delivering the morning drive newscasts, I would usually head into town to attend a morning press event or cover a trial before heading back to the station for the big noon newscast.
After a nap in the afternoon, I would attend the city council, school board or county board meetings in the evenings. Then start it all over the next day.
Tell the audience about your experiences.
Go back to your early days.
Most of us have humble beginnings. We start small and learn. We grow. We gain experience.
That's likely your experience. You're doing something today that was made possible by the experiences and the events early in your career.
Those are the stories that can really spice up your next speech.
Don't just provide information in your talk.. Tell the audience about your experiences. Go back to your early days.
Explain what you learned when you were a one-man band. Talk about the lonely feelings or the insights you gained.
Why? Because stories are by far the best way to connect with your audience. We all love a good story, especially when they teach a principle or inspire us to take action.
Your assignment: think back to those early days and recall a story that you can use in your next speech or presentation. Develop the lesson or the principle that you want the audience to learn.

All Christian history up to modern time is mainly written by men and as a consequence tells about men and even in the cases, when it tells about women, it does it from male perspective. The role of women in the development of Christianity if often underestimated. But the role of women in early Christianity is much more important than just accompanying men and serving for them. The history of women in Christianity is complex and diverse. It's a subject of a deep study because the vision of a woman presented by the Bible is not complete and doesn't reflect the real state of events. In the Bible a woman is depicted as a reflection of a man and we know about any events where women took part only connected with male characters of the narration. That is the reason why works by Elizabeth Clark and Patricia Cox Miller are so important. They give us not only additional information and many historical data about the place of women in early Christian society, their role in making of the Christianity, but also very interesting conclusions made by the authors. Before these notable researches only few works written by women during the period of Early Christianity have been presented to the public. So, readers didn't have an opportunity to make an opinion of their own about the role women played during the epoch of early Christianity.
Miller's work presents text written by women themselves and this gives us a unique opportunity to get the reality from their perspective and share their vision on many important issues. Different kinds of data collected by Miller help us to compare the information from different sources, such as Church orders, narrative orders, and descriptions of the lives of saints and their biographies, and theological treatises on marriage. The portray of the woman created by Miller is colorful and alive and we can not only read historical data, but also feel the way these women felt and perceive the reality through their eyes.
Patricia Cox Miller did a perfect job by collecting, sorting out and presenting in the right order information from ancient texts, which show different roles women had during the period of Early Christianity. She managed to show different dimensions of their lives. Women presented by her are mothers, sisters, wives, prophets, hermits, deaconesses, martyrs and symbols of Christianity. Miller doesn't let reader to guess about the meaning of historical data but provides her comments, which help the reader to understand the meaning of ancient writings. Her comments become a very helpful tool, which helps not to get lost in the variable data.
Elizabeth Clark is another scholar and founder of the Department of Religion at Mary Washington Collage, who dedicated a lot of time and effort to the study of the theme of women in early Christianity. The attitude of the male representative of the Christian Church has always been double-faced. From the one side they regarded women as an object given to men by God, as a source of evil and temptation. From the other side women incarnated the purity of Virgin Maria who gave birth to the Son of God and could show people the way to real faith. Clark's work "Women in the Early Church" presents different views and attitudes to women in the period of early Christianity. So, her books represent the complicated gender roles and relations during the period when Christian faith had been establish and widespread. Such a study is very important as the types of relations established during those distanced time were voluntary or involuntary transmitted through all the history of Christianity and had important influence on the role of women there and still do. The kind of relationship established between a man and a woman inside the religious teaching can tell a lot about the foundations of this teaching and main principles it is based on. That is why I think that Clark's work is very important. It gives us information not only about the different roles women played during Early Christian Church, but also about the basement of Christianity in general. The book is interesting for both – for those who want to know about the history of female and their place in the history of the mankind and those, who are interested in the history of Christian religion.
The society of the time when Christian Church was established could be characterized as patriarchal one. The status of women was considered lower than the status of men. From the other side in the Bible there are a lot of scenes where Christ is depicted with different women. This may be explained by the wish of Christ to underline the equality of men and women. Women were treated like lower race at the time Christ started his mission on the Earth and tried to change this situation.
Women extracted from the Church by the patriarchal society sill can't find equal place there. That is one more reason why the works of feminist scholars, such as Elizabeth Clark, are so important. Clark goes much deeper than the study of the Bible. In her book, she presents the pieces of writing of Augustine, Tertullian and John Chrysostom. The sources used by the author prove negative perception of the women by the Church. For example, in his Literal Commentary of Genesis Augustine expressed his view on women. According to his opinion the women have been created as helpers for men and for the purposes of recreation. In his other work called On Paradise he talks about Eva, who was give as a helper to Adam and who later caused him to commit a sin.
The movement for the rights and freedoms of women, which started on the West and became widespread all over the world nowadays, raised great interest to the role of women in early Christianity.
The role of woman in early Christianity was mainly determined by their roles in social structure in general. Clark states: "I think part of the activity in the early period, that is the New Testament period itself, perhaps is related to women's role in the house churches. The earliest Christian communities met in people's houses; they didn't have churches yet for quite some time, and throughout the New Testament, particularly Paul's letters in the Book of Acts, we find out that women owned the houses in which the early Christians met."(Clark, 78) Women's activity grows starting from the late 4th century. During this time Christian religion came to a new level. Churches and Monasteries had been built in great amount and women obtained new ways to realize themselves inside the Christian religion. Many women occupied important positions in the monasteries and some of them even became the heads of the monasteries.
Growing interest to the history of Christianity and feministic movements, which struggle for the rights of the women all over the world inspire a lot of feminist scholars for new researches. The works by Elizabeth Clark and Patricia Cox Miller present historical data about the role of women in the development of Christianity and possible consequences this data can have on the place of woman in the modern Church.

Meet the adorable girl, 8, who has a higher IQ than Einstein
2 months ago 9913 views by Maryn Blignaut
- Adhara Perez, who hails from Mexico, is a young genius
- The eight-year-old has an impressive IQ of 162, higher than both Einstein and Hawking
- Perez dreams of one day becoming an astronaut
Adhara Perez might only be eight years old but she's already known for her intellectual capabilities.
Perez, who hails from the slums of Tlahuac, Mexico City, has an IQ of 162 - making it more than that of Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking.
However, despite her high IQ, Perez has faced difficulties in life. She recalls being mocked in school after she was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome (autism spectrum) at the age of three.
The classmates dubbed Perez "weird" and her mom, Nallely Sanchez, said her daughter was affected by it emotionally, to the point where she did not want to go to school.
Nallely saw her daughter was gifted, having advanced knowledge of algebra and the periodic table.
She took Perez to a psychiatrist who recommended that they go to the Talent Care Center. They confirmed Perez had an outstanding IQ and she was offered classes tailored to her abilities, according to theyucatantimes.com.
By the age of eight, she had already completed high school and is already studying towards two online degrees - Industrial Engineering in Mathematics at UNITEC and Systems Engineering by CNCI.
