Geneva Bible 1560/1599
Acts Chapter: 16
16:1 Then came he to Derbe and to Lystra: and beholde, a certaine disciple was there named Timotheus, a womans sonne, which was a Iewesse and beleeued, but his father was a Grecian,
16:2 Of whom the brethren which were at Lystra and Iconium, reported well.
16:3 Therefore Paul would that he should go forth with him, and tooke and circumcised him, because of ye Iewes, which were in those quarters: for they knewe all, that his father was a Grecian.
16:4 And as they went through the cities, they deliuered them the decrees to keepe, ordeined of the Apostles and Elders, which were at Hierusalem.
16:5 And so were the Churches stablished in the faith, and encreased in number daily.
16:6 Nowe when they had gone throughout Phrygia, and the region of Galatia, they were forbidden of the holy Ghost to preache the worde in Asia.
16:7 Then came they to Mysia, and sought to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not.
16:8 Therefore they passed through Mysia, and came downe to Troas,
16:9 Where a vision appeared to Paul in the night. There stoode a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come into Macedonia, and helpe vs.
16:10 And after he had seene the vision, immediatly we prepared to goe into Macedonia, being assured that the Lord had called vs to preache the Gospel vnto them.
16:11 Then went we forth from Troas, and with a straight course came to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis,
16:12 And from thence to Philippi, which is the chiefe citie in ye partes of Macedonia, and whose inhabitants came from Rome to dwell there, and we were in that citie abiding certaine dayes.
16:13 And on the Sabbath day, we went out of the citie, besides a Riuer, where they were wont to pray: and we sate downe, and spake vnto the women, which were come together.
16:14 And a certaine woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the citie of the Thyatirians, which worshipped God, heard vs: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended vnto the things, which Paul spake.
16:15 And when she was baptized, and her houshold, she besought vs, saying, If ye haue iudged me to be faithfull to ye Lord, come into mine house, and abide there: and she constrained vs.
16:16 And it came to passe that as we went to prayer, a certaine maide hauing a spirit of diuination, mette vs, which gate her masters much vantage with diuining.
16:17 She followed Paul and vs, and cryed, saying, These men are the seruants of the most high God, which shewe vnto you the way of saluation.
16:18 And this did she many dayes: but Paul being grieued, turned about, and said to the spirit, I commaund thee in the Name of Iesus Christ, that thou come out of her. And he came out the same houre.
16:19 Nowe when her masters sawe that the hope of their gaine was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drewe them into the market place vnto the Magistrates,
16:20 And brought them to the gouernours, saying, These men which are Iewes, trouble our citie,
16:21 And preache ordinances, which are not lawfull for vs to receiue, neither to obserue, seeing we are Romanes.
16:22 The people also rose vp together against them, and the gouernours rent their clothes, and commanded them to be beaten with roddes.
16:23 And when they had beaten them sore, they cast them into prison, commaunding the Iayler to keepe them surely.
16:24 Who hauing receiued such commandement, cast them into the inner prison, and made their feete fast in the stockes.
16:25 Nowe at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sung Psalmes vnto God: and the prisoners heard them.
16:26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundation of the prison was shaken: and by and by all the doores opened, and euery mans bands were loosed.
16:27 Then the keeper of the prison waked out of his sleepe, and when he sawe the prison doores open, he drewe out his sword and would haue killed himselfe, supposing the prisoners had bin fled.
16:28 But Paul cryed with a loude voyce, saying, Doe thy selfe no harme: for we are all here.
16:29 Then he called for a light, and leaped in, and came trembling, and fell downe before Paul and Silas,
16:30 And brought them out, and said, Syrs, what must I doe to be saued?
16:31 And they saide, Beleeue in the Lord Iesus Christ, and thou shalt be saued, and thine houshold.
16:32 And they preached vnto him the worde of the Lord, and to all that were in the house.
16:33 Afterwarde he tooke them the same houre of the night, and washed their stripes, and was baptized with all that belonged vnto him, straigthway.
16:34 And when he had brought them into his house, he set meate before them, and reioyced that he with all his houshold beleeued in God.
16:35 And when it was day, the gouernours sent the sergeants, saying, Let those men goe.
16:36 Then the keeper of the prison tolde these woordes vnto Paul, saying, The gouerness haue sent to loose you: nowe therefore get you hence, and goe in peace.
16:37 Then sayde Paul vnto them, After that they haue beaten vs openly vncodemned, which are Romanes, they haue cast vs into prison, and nowe would they put vs out priuily? nay verely: but let them come and bring vs out.
16:38 And the sergeants tolde these woordes vnto the gouernours, who feared whe they heard that they were Romanes.
16:39 Then came they and praied them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the citie.
16:40 And they went out of the prison, and entred into the house of Lydia: and when they had seene the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
The Geneva Bible is one of the most influential and historically significant translations of the Bible into English, preceding the King James translation by 51 years. It was the primary Bible of 16th century Protestantism and was the Bible used by William Shakespeare, Oliver Cromwell, John Knox, John Donne, and John Bunyan. The language of the Geneva Bible was more forceful and vigorous and because of this, most readers strongly preferred this version at the time.
The Geneva Bible was produced by a group of English scholars who, fleeing from the reign of Queen Mary, had found refuge in Switzerland. During the reign of Queen Mary, no Bibles were printed in England, the English Bible was no longer used in churches and English Bibles already in churches were removed and burned. Mary was determined to return Britain to Roman Catholicism.
The first English Protestant to die during Mary's turbulent reign was John Rogers in 1555, who had been the editor of the Matthews Bible. At this time, hundreds of Protestants left England and headed for Geneva, a city which under the leadership of Calvin, had become the intellectual and spiritual capital of European Protestants.
One of these exiles was William Whittingham, a fellow of Christ Church at Oxford University, who had been a diplomat, a courtier, was much traveled and skilled in many languages including Greek and Hebrew. He eventually succeeded John Knox as the minister of the English congregation in Geneva. Whittingham went on to publish the 1560 Geneva Bible.
This version is significant because, it came with a variety of scriptural study guides and aids, which included verse citations that allow the reader to cross-reference one verse with numerous relevant verses in the rest of the Bible, introductions to each book of the Bible that acted to summarize all of the material that each book would cover, maps, tables, woodcut illustrations, indices, as well as other included features, all of which would eventually lead to the reputation of the Geneva Bible as history's very first study Bible.

AIR: Superfortress
Air Forces General "Hap" Arnold had said that the new superbomber, the Boeing B29, would make the Flying Fortress shrink to the size of a medium bomber. And that was about all the U.S. public knew about the B29, until last week.
Additional news did not come from the U.S. but from England. Flight, a trade magazine unbound by strict U.S. censorship, had given British readers some details of the secret weapon the U.S. is readying for battle.
The B29. recently named Superfortress, is a four-engined bomber and the biggest long-range bomb carrier...

As with all families, I am continually on the hunt for ways to keep my children entertained and inspired this summer.
Along with active, outdoor adventures to enjoy the sunshine, there are also days that we like to spend time relaxing indoors away from the heat. And what better way to do that than to start the day with a filling (and fun!) breakfast and an educational and unique board game? Both of which can be found including our good pals from Dinosaur Train!
Tyrannosaurus Rex Pancakes – with adult help, children shape the batter into the large, three-toed feet of this ferocious dinosaur.
Paleontologist Pancakes – make small pancakes, then stack them up five or six high (maybe putting apple sauce or sour cream between them), and hiding "fossils" between the layers. The fossils could be pieces of strawberry, banana slices, chocolate chips or more!
Stegosaurus Smoothie – a colorful, healthy fruit smoothie made with a blend of yogurt, a frozen banana, and any other fruit you wish. Serve it on a dish with a rim. In the middle of the dish, place a line of triangular fruit pieces – such as pineapple, apples, or cantaloupe. These little fruity triangles will look like the plates on a stegosaurus' back.
Triceratops Eggs – scrambled eggs that have "horns" sticking out of them that are made of breadsticks.
Your child can help by writing and design the menu to announce all the tasty food they will be serving and extend the learning by having a discussion about safety in the kitchen. What are some jobs that are good for kids to do? What jobs should be handled by an adult? You can even incorporate the show by watching a clip of the Pteranadon Family enjoying their breakfast on the Dinosaur Train!
After breakfast everyone can gather round to play the Dinosaur Train All Aboard game from Pressman Toy!
After choosing a character (Buddy, Tiny, Shiny, Don, Cory, Tank or Mr. Conductor), players try to move the fastest along the train tracks. With an easy spin of the wheel, players know how many spaces they can move as they follow the path through the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous periods.
For 2 to 6 players ages 4+, Big Sister E had no problem understanding that the Special Stopwatch spaces help characters move closer to the finish, but that she had to watch out for Dinosaur Crossing spaces that send you backwards instead. The main skill needed for this game is being able to count, so she has had a lot of fun working to be the first player to reach the nest and win!
With a retail price of $12, Dinosaur Train All Aboard can be found directly from Pressman Toy or on Amazon (for less) for young fans everywhere.
Pressman Toy has been making toys and games for nearly 100 years, so be sure to keep up with all of their great items on their website as well as on Facebook and Twitter. More information about Dinosaur Train can be found from The Jim Henson Company as well as from PBS KIDS.

Recently the appellate court decided a very impactful case in the area of trust litigation. The case is known as Barefoot v. Jennings, 2018 WL 4292450. Appellant, Joan Mauri Barefoot, is one of six children of Joan Lee Maynord. Maynord and her former husband, who died in 1993, established the Maynord 1986 Family Trust and Maynord served as the sole trustor following her husband's death. Starting in August 2013 and continuing through 2016, Maynord executed eight amendments to and restatements of the Family Trust, referred to as the 17th through the 24th Amendments, with the 24th Amendment being the final amendment prior to Maynord's death. It is in these amendments and restatements in which Appellant's share of the Family Trust, described in the 16th Amendment, was eliminated and Appellant was both expressly disinherited and removed as successor trustee.
Appellant's petition challenged the validity of the 17th through the 24th Amendments on three grounds: (1) alleged that Maynord was "not of sound and disposing mind" and thus lacked "mental capacity to amend the Trust"; (2) alleged undue influence on behalf of Respondents, the other children of Maynord, including Shana Wren, the current trustee; and (3) alleged fraud on behalf of Respondents.
With respect to her standing to file the petition, Appellant alleged she was "a person interested in both the devolution of [Maynord's] estate and the proper administration of the Trust because [appellant] is [Maynord's] daughter and both the trustee and beneficiary of the Trust before the purported amendments." She also claimed that she would benefit from a judicial determination that the purported amendments are invalid.
Respondents filed an answer and a motion to dismiss pursuant to Probate Code Section 17200 and 17202, arguing that Appellant lacked standing because she was neither a beneficiary nor a trustee of the Trust as constituted under the 24th Amendment. Appellant opposed the motion, arguing that she was a beneficiary under the 16th Amendment and alleging that the later amendments were invalid. The Trial Court ultimately sided with respondents and dismissed the Appellant's petition. Appellant filed an amended petition with more facts which was again denied. Appellant then filed an appeal.
Section 17200, subdivision (a) provides, "Except as provided in Section 15800, a trustee or beneficiary of a trust may petition the court under this chapter concerning the internal affairs of the trust or to determine the existence of the trust." Under section 24 subdivision (c), a beneficiary of a trust is "a person to whom a donative transfer of property is made" and "who has any present or future interest, vested or contingent."
The Appellate Court concluded that Appellants argument that standing exists because she was a beneficiary and trustee of prior versions of the Family Trust is insufficient to support a petition under Section 17200. The Appellate Court interpreted the statute, stating "The plain language of Section 17200 makes clear that only a beneficiary or trustee of a trust can file a petition under Section 17200." There being no ambiguous language in Section 17200, the Appellate Court felt comfortable interpreting the language as such, in order to "select the construction that comports most closely with Legislature's apparent intent." Appellant was not a beneficiary under the current version of the Family Trust, being the 24th Amendment of the Family Trust, since she was expressly disinherited and not named as a trustee. Thus, she lacked standing to proceed with a petition under Section 17200 attacking the Family Trust. The Appellate Court did note that while Appellant may have standing under various other statutes, Section 17200 was not one of them.
The Appellate Court went on to confirm that the conclusion in Drake v. Pinkham (2013) 217 Cal.App.4th 400, that a living but incompetent settlor was not a bar to a beneficiary's lawsuit did not demonstrate that a former beneficiary challenging the latest version of a trust was entitled to proceed because of their status in the last allegedly valid former trust document.
Time will tell to what extent court follow the Barefoot decision as it appears to be counter intuitive and against public policy for a disinherited beneficiary not to be able to challenge the estate planning documents or trust documents which may have been procured by fraud or undue influence.

One photo of Riga had me jumping for joy.
It is a photo of a salmon colored building, its roof scaled rather than straight.
It was special, but I wasn't sure why.
I was soon to find out that it wasn't the only building in Latvia's capital city that held a special charm.
I'll bring them to you slowly, but for now let me give you a little taste.
Arriving early morning, I had plenty of time to wander before check-in was available at that night's accommodation. Wondering how to make good use of this time, I decided to create three challenges for myself. Each was related to capturing the city's architecture through photographs. Setting out into the brisk morning, I was accompanied by quiet streets and streaming sunshine. And I couldn't have picked a better task.
Riga is filled with various styles of architecture. Having seen a financial boom around the turn of the century, the city was quickly filled with signs of the times. Today, most still remain standing in excellent condition. Art Nouveau is intertwined with modern and with classical wooden structures. Had I longer legs, I would've captured the architecture straight-on. But alas, I stand at 5'6" and that's the angle each image is taken at.
A look through the windows of Riga.

Jim Shelley & Book of Kills
Thoughts & Updates

Garfield Banks drumming slightly out of focus during a BOK practice in January of 2019.
When Dustin Bugg, Brian Temples, Mike Chiarello and I decided to give it a go as the latest version of Book of Kills, the first place we practiced was in the band room of Harrisonburg High School, where I taught English, Creative Writing and Film Studies. (Screen shot from an old VHS tape.)
Back in 2007, after the break-up of The Karl Rove, I was searching for musicians to start up a new band. George Nipe III offered to play bass and sing some and a young Jeff Lown agreed to sit in on drums, though he hadn't been playing for every long. We practiced quite a bit over the course of two or three weeks in preparation for a multi-band show at the Little Grill and managed to throw together a good half an hour set of BOK classics. The gig, along with Meade Skelton, Antelope, Buck Gooter and Evan Moritz, turned out to be good clunky fun.
Me and Johnny St. Ours during a Karl Rove gig at the Little Grill, November 15, 2006, just two days before the band disbanded. (Photograph by Drea Bleu Good-Brown.)
From a benefit show Book of Kills played at Clementine's (in Harrisonburg, Virginia) back in October of 2009. That's Casey Firkin sitting in on the drums for Mike Hicks who I think had met up with friends ...or maybe he flew to Spain to see his family? I don't remember now. Anyway, we simply didn't practice together enough and the gig, while not disastrous, was not one of our better efforts. Nice venue though. And I think we got a free meal and a beer. (Photograph by Deanne Good)
Back before The Karl Rove was known as The Karl Rove...this is me, Aaron Farrington, Johnny St. Ours and temporary drummer Casey Firkin practicing in the band room of Harrisonburg High School while we were still the Book of Proles. From early in 2005. (Photograph by Deanne Good)
One day in the spring of 2009, Jana Burtner came over to our practice space at George's place in Harrisonburg, Virginia, and took a bunch of photographs of me, George and Mike Hicks. I think we were looking not just for "promo" pictures but possible photos as part of a t-shirt design I was putting together. This is one of my favorites from that day. It just radiates the good things about that great little band. Jana had a good eye for capturing the "essence" of Book of Kills.

Released November 2000, SONGS (1983-2000) was the best BOK 'greatest hits" package until ADVENTURES OF AN INSPIRED AMATEUR dropped in 2006. Included the eight page booklet shown in the photos above.
This is the little book I used to write notes concerning remixing the tracks for the latest (as yet untitled) Book of Kills album. "AG' means acoustic guitar. "LV" is lead vocal. "BV" is backing vocals, etc. Those are not necessarily the titles of the songs, by the way, in quotation marks but rather just a name that helps me remember what song I'm taking notes for.

Q: MacOS error for object 0x7f8b8d004c40: pointer being freed was not allocated I have a problem when I run rails s or rails routes,
most of the time I will get the following error message:
ruby(2177,0x7fff96a0b3c0) malloc: *** error for object 0x7f8b8d004c40: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

I have tried all solutions
here
but it doesn't help, any ideas?

A: After I tried clean reinstall MacOS, the error still exist, so the error must be in my code.
But since malloc is a C thing, I took a closer look at the gems I am currently using, and found one of the gem is a C extension.
I removed that gem, and everything is fine, just I have to find a alternative to that gem.
