Full Product Description

In the early 1970s an innocent teenager who had led a sheltered life was forced to leave her family and enter into a polygamous, abusive, and deviant relationship with a man called the Prophet. In 2008, nearly 40 years later, she fled his religious sect. Property! is not a misnomer. It accurately depicts how the women in the sect were treated. Carol Christie reveals the degradation, abuse, and brainwashing that the Church Wives endured. She exposes the physical abuse, the mental cruelty, the slave labour, and the sexual deviance that took place in Owen Sound, a small community just a few hours north of Toronto. She describes the many opportunities that officials had to investigate but walked away from, swayed by the charismatic Prophet. Carol is building a new life, one of freedom and options. With no money and no job she started again and is now dedicated to helping others who have escaped while raising awareness about the dangers of the cult.

Property! by Carol Christie; John Christie was published by Dundurn Group Ltd in April 2013. The ISBN for Property! is 9781459709768.

Sing Praise Full Music

Full Product Description

Many standard hymn books in use today seem old-fashioned, even those recently published. Keeping up to date is tricky as many new compositions enjoy a brief spell in vogue and then drop out of use altogether.Here, an experienced team of church musicians and liturgists, representing a wide variety of tastes, has selected the very best of recently written hymn, song and short chant compositions. Many are today's classics that have proved their staying power and are widely used in both traditional and informal styles of worship, though for the most part cannot be found in hymn books.This selection will complement many existing hymnals including Common Praise, Hymns Ancient& Modern, The New English Hymnal, Hymns Old and New, Hymns and Psalms, Rejoice and Sing, Baptist Praise and Worship, and others.Churches will be able to broaden their repertoire substantially without the cost of replacing their standard hymn books.The 330 hymns and songs included represent today's most influential writers and styles: Bernadette Farrell, John Bell, Stuart Townend, Michael Forster, Graham Kendrick, Carl Daw, Taize, Marty Haugen, Timothy Dudley-Smith, Shirley Erena-Murray, Keith Getty, Martin Leckebusch and many more.

Sing Praise Full Music by Anne Harrison was published by Canterbury Press in September 2010 and is our 13100th best seller. The ISBN for Sing Praise Full Music is 9781848250345.

Oh Gigi, Lovely Gigi...

The Gigi was well worth the price. It's rechargeable, which saves battery's. It is also powerful and quiet. Great for clitoral stimulation as well as g spot stimulation. An awesome 2 - in - 1 product!
Quiet, Strong, Smooth, Rechargeable
Controls can be a bit messy

extremely useful review

The Lelo Gigi is my First ever vibrator. Many people would say to buy cheaper ones to find which I would like, but I took the plunge and am glad I did. It is great for clitoral stimulation with several different strengths. It can also be inserted for g spot stimulation although I would not recommend using it for thrusting. Gigi's curved head can get caught on your pelvic bone and this may bother some people. The Gigi may also not reach your g spot if you have a g spot that is far in. Gigi can also be used for stimulation in other place such as the breasts. Gigi's strength is pretty good, although, I am sure it is not a powerhouse, it should be satisfactory for most.

Gigi is not waterproof, so do not use her in the shower. Gigi is also very very quiet, I was delightfully surprised. I live in a dorm and so need to be very quiet. The Gigi can hardly be heard under covers and definitely not through a door. It also locks, so it would not be accidentally turned on during storage or travel.

    • Clitoris

Material / Texture

The Gigi is made of silicone and plastic. It is very smooth to the touch, though, not flexible at all. Gigi should not be brought in the shower. Gigi's curved head is also great for kneading the clitoris. The Gigi is also odorless.
    • No odor
    • Smooth

Design / Shape / Size

The Gigi is not large and so is quite friendly looking. May not be for women who like longer and larger shafts. The Gigi's shape is great for reaching shallower g spots, however. The Gigi would be great for beginners. It does look like a toy, however. I would not leave it lying out.
    • Beginner
    • Ergonomic
    • Futuristic

Functions / Performance / Controls

The Vibrations are concentrated in the head of the toy. This makes it great for clitoral stimulation. It also has about 7 different speeds and several different patterns. My favorite being the up and down and the continuous vibrations. It is not waterproof and is very quiet. The controls can get it the way and I have found myself hitting the wrong buttons, however, to me, this is not a huge deal. The handle of this toy is also very convenient.

The Gigi is also rechargeable. Takes about 2 hours to charge and will last up to 4 hours afterward depending on what strength you use it on.
    • Discreet sound
    • Easy to use
    • Rechargeable

Care and Maintenance

Gigi is easy to care for. Use warm water and soap to clean the shaft and be careful when you clean the handle as it is not waterproof. I store it in the provided pouch.
    • Easy to clean
    • Easy to store

Packaging was beautiful. Place in a durable black box and came with a storage pouch. Also came with warranty and instructions.
    • Discreet looking packaging
    • Good for storage
    • Would make a nice gift

G-spot vibrator by JoyDivision

Add resource

This Sailor is ready for the high seas!

This beautiful, pink toy is wonderful! It's smooth, velvety texture, bumps on top and bottom of the shaft, and the great curve on the tip makes for a very memorable "sailing" experience! I will sail with this toy any day! It is a must have for your collection.
Perfect texture for g-spot stimulation, easy to use, beautiful drawstring storage bag included.
The control dial is a big tight, however, I'm sure the more it is used the looser it will become.
Rating by reviewer:
extremely useful review

The Sailor is a great toy for g-spot stimulation! It is a tad on the thick side, which I absolutely love. It has great ridges along the shaft that stimulate the vaginal opening and also great for clit stimulation. This toy can be used for vaginal or anal use, though I have not tried it anally. This toy is great for anyone that likes texture and g-spot stimulation.

    • Anal
    • Clitoris
    • G-spot

Material / Texture

This toy is made of a silicone shaft with a plastic base. It is non-porous,phthalates free, hypo-allergenic, latex free and is made of food grade material. The Sailor is the perfect texture for me. It is flexible, yet very firm. It has the perfect texture for tapping the g-spot perfectly! It has a very smooth almost powdery/velvety feel to it. It has large ridges along the top and bottom of the shaft that feel absolutely wonderful gliding in and out of my pussy. The texture is more for beginners because of the larger sized ridges. There is no smell or taste whatsoever. I am absolutely in love with the texture of this toy!
    • Bumpy
    • No odor

Design / Shape / Size

This design is awesome! I love the ridges and it has the perfect curve at the top to tap the g-spot with just the right pressure. It is a bit wide measuring 5 1/2" in circumference. The length is 8 1/2" with 7" being insertable and weighs 11 oz. The Sailor is a beautiful dark pink color and the design almost reminds me of a dinosaur tail. It is not very discreet, so it is best to keep this little lady hidden away in the silver colored drawstring bag it comes with.

Functions / Performance / Controls

The controls are very basic. It has a dial on the base. You turn the dial to turn the vibrations on and the more you turn the knob the more intense the vibrations are. It does not have much variety, however, It really doesn't need all of the vibration options as it does just great the way it is. The Sailor is very quiet. If used under a blanket or behind a closed door it will not be heard by anyone. This toy is splashproof, but not waterproof. The only issue I have with this toy is the turn dial is a bit hard to turn. However, I think the more it is used the looser the dial will become.
    • Discreet sound
    • Easy to use

Care and Maintenance

This toy should be cleaned with mild soap and water or toy cleaner. When cleaning it pay extra close attention to the ridges as they can hold bacteria. Because The Sailor is made of silicone you should use water based lube.
    • Easy to clean
    • Easy to store

The Sailor comes in a clear, hard plastic package with basic directions, a sample of water based lube and a beautiful silvery satin drawstring storage bag.
    • Would make a nice gift

Personal comments

If you are looking for a good, reliable g-spot vibe with some texture, you have to try this one! I'm sure you won't be disappointed!

The Sailor will definitely be one of my first "go to" toys! I love everything about it.
Follow-up commentary
This toy still makes me want to "sail" any day! This toy is one that has a home in my nightstand drawer for easy access! Although, the control dial is still a bit stiff.

Sweetheart - vibrator by Shaki Toys - review by imp

Traditional vibrator by Shaki Toys

Nubby Love

The Sweetheart body massager is a perfect clitoral tease with strong vibrations, a playmate for bath time or in the shower makes her extra special fun. Graced with many small nubbed hearts all over the shaft and a smooth touch will leave you purring with delight.
Cute, velvet feel, covered in small heart shaped nubs for extra pleasure. Strong 'high' vibe.
If it was bigger in size, it would make a better vibe. Only three vibrational settings.
Rating by reviewer:
extremely useful review

This is one fun clitoral teaser. A small, cute fun toy covered in tiny heart nubs for extra added sensation. It is insertable as well, to tease you with three different vibrations. Watch out little pocket rockets, you might have competition!

The Sweetheart is not suitable for anal use due to the fact it has no flared base.

    Where / what types of places can this product be used?
    • Bathtub

Material / Texture

The Sweetheart is made of hard plastic yet the outside texture, to the touch, has a beautiful velvety smooth feel. Two thirds of the Sweetheart are covered in a good number of small raised nubs which are in the shape of small hearts. The raised nubs most definitely add to the sensations when thrusting. The bottom of the massager has a push button heart which controls the vibrations. It feels absolutely divine on the skin. It is non-porous, hypo-allergenic, latex free and phthalate-free material.

Design / Shape / Size

The Sweetheart comes in a pink color only. It is a simple straight massager/vibe with no curves, but the added nubs which sit a couple of millimeters high do give you an added sensation when moving over skin and inserting. You could pop this in a handbag quite easily and it would make for a great travel companion on trips away. It's full length is five & a quarter inches, insertable length a nice 4 & a quarter inches. It's not overly girthy at all at a modest 1/4 inch in diameter. It works rather well as a clitoral vibe and the vibrations have beat my pocket rocket as far as strength.

Functions / Performance / Controls

The vibrations have three settings, low, medium and high all controlled by a heart shaped button which sits at the base of the toy. You do have to push the button quite hard to change the vibrations and to turn off you need to go through all three.

The Sweetheart takes three AAA batteries and works fine with rechargable batteries as well. To insert batteries you simply twist the bottom off and insert the batteries into the main shaft. It has a rubber ring around the base where the two sections connect so there's no chance of water getting in the inside of the toy.

It's also 100% waterproof so it can be used in the bath or the shower without any problems, I have used this toy submerged in water, and there has been no water sneaking into the toy anywhere so a definite thumbs up in that regard.

It is loud on the two higher settings, can be heard through bed covers and probably outside a bedroom door. But hey if you are not worried about that then by all means have fun!

Care and Maintenance

The Sweetheart can easily be cleaned with antibacterial soap and hot water, popped into the top of a dishwasher or cleaned with a toy cleaner. You can use water based lube or silicone lubes not a problem.

The Sweetheart arrived packaged in a lovely black cardboard box with a see through section on the side where the toy is visible. The packaging says 'Body Massager' but also has 'sex toys' on the front, so it's not discreet in that sense. Not something you want to leave lying about on the coffee table. The inside packaging consists of a simple plastic molded insert which the toy sits in. It also doesn't come with any type of storage bag.

Personal comments

If this had more vibrational settings to play with and a bit more size to it, I'd be a little obsessed with this toy.

To be totally honest I saw this and went ugh. It's pink, I don't like pink toys... but now I think I might like at least one. The Sweetheart.

But hey, Impy likes a challenge! Seriously I really thought this toy would be a flop but wow was I surprised. I beamed when I opened the package to find the texture of it is wonderfully smooth and beautiful to the touch. Seriously, I have sat there rubbing it on my face and my arms and cooed.

The small nubs definitely added to the sensation when thrusting the toy and the vibrations made me reconsider biffing my pocket rocket and replacing it with the Sweetheart for clitoral teasing play. The vibrations are a load more intense than I originally thought they would be and this is what sold me on the toy.

The only downfall is it didn't come with a storage pouch. That would have been a nice touch.

It's a lovely toy for those who are not sure about delving near a hulking great sized vibrator for a first time. This would make a lovely wee gift. Great for someone who was curious to try a vibrating toy for the first time and then move on to something a little bigger and more intense.
Follow-up commentary
I still use this toy for teasing factors and the vibrations are powerful from a smaller toy such as this. Bigger is always going to be better in my eyes because I am greedy like that but it has a function as a great warm up toy or for those who are not so fussed on a larger toy but want the good vibrations happening. The texture on this toy is most definitely a bonus for me and the battery lasts well so I can enjoy a decent amount of teasing. I have used this as a clitoral vibe as well with relative success. It's a cute gift as well.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

by Jake Mulligan
Friday Apr 5, 2013

Robert Zemeckis has bounced between animation and live action his entire career, back and forth. So it's probably a cliché to say that "Who Framed Roger Rabbit," the one film to-date where he mixed the formats, is his best work. But he's never managed to eclipse the simple charms of this animated-noir caper.

"Rabbit" is a mystery yarn that pays tribute to that detective standard of the 1940s cinema, and equal respect to the Warner Brothers and Disney cartoons of the 30s/40s. It's just as unique as it sounds. Donald and Daffy Duck do battle over a piano duet while Bob Hoskin's troubled PI - assigned to solve a murder supposedly committed by the title character, a made-up knock-off of Mickey Mouse or Bugs Bunny - slugs back whiskey shots in the audience. And Zemeckis directs the whole thing like a episode of the Looney Toons; seamlessly melding the narrative with Acme gadgets and dynamic pratfalls. His greatest pleasure is in taking the old standards - the impossible gadgets - and making them work in live action. The entire 'cartoon-in-live-action' genre - from "Dick Tracy" to "Scott Pilgrim" - owes at least a little bit to Zemeckis' seminal effort.

And Touchstone offers a fair bit of extras commemorating this one-time-only extravaganza (you have to know that if "Roger Rabbit" came out seven years ago, there'd be three sequels by now). You get three highly entertaining (and lovingly restored) shorts, used in the late 80s to establish the Roger character. There's also an audio commentary (with Zemeckis and other members of the crew), two documentaries (one fluffy, one 40-minutes long and well worth watching), a deleted scene (skippable), and few minutes worth of raw footage used to show the process of mixing the animation and live action.

Looking at the footage, and then at the finished "Rabbit," you realize: there's truly been nothing like it before or since.

Eaton’s cool Clements bows out a winner after thrilling play-off success at Norfolk amateur champs

11:39 16 June 2014

Tom Clements with his trophy. Picture: LEADERBOARD PHOTOGRAPHY

Eaton’s Tom Clements held his nerve to win a dramatic play-off at Hunstanton and leave the amateur scene as a county champion.

The 21-year-old hauled back an eight-shot final-round deficit to take Thaine Hacon to a one-hole shoot-out during his final outing in the Norfolk Amateur Golf Championship. Clements, who is now embarking on the start of his professional career, sunk a pressure putt on the 18th to send the showcase event to at least one extra hole. And just like he did in the Norfolk Open three years ago, the promising youngster triumphed to kiss goodbye to the part-time arena on a memorable high.

A delighted Clements said: “Coming into the event I knew it was my last one as an amateur. So I really wanted to win it.

“Obviously going into the last round eight behind I still thought there was a little bit of a chance. So I just wanted to shoot at least under par, which I did. Quite early on I thought I had a chance. I was three under front nine, Thaine had a couple of bad holes, and I knew I had a chance. I tried to take every hole as it came because it’s such a tough course. It’s not a golf course you can just go out and make birdies on.

“I was so nervous when I got to the play-off. Anyone can win, although that blow to Thaine had put me as the favourite I’d have thought. But I just wanted to win it so much. I’ve always wanted to win this and to do it in my last time I could ever play in it, well I’m really ecstatic. It’s a big confidence boost for me.”

Hacon, whose home course is Great Yarmouth & Caister, shot two superb one-under par 71s on Saturday to take control of the four-round tournament. But a six and seven at the back end of his third outing ruined a difficult morning which also saw Clements struggle to an 81. However, the pair went out last for the final round and while both opened up with a birdie, Hacon’s demise started when an out-of-character nine saw him hand his playing partner the incentive. Even though he bounced back to register six pars on the front nine, three birdies allowed Clements to claw back seven shots.

The title-hopefuls remained neck and neck through the back nine before the championship’s dominant force seemed to have forgotten his troubles and shrugged off any fears that he would blow his handsome lead. The Yarmouth ace took a one shot lead into the final hole but made a unfortunate mistake by believing he could afford to three-putt the 18th and still triumph.

That error came back to haunt him as the overnight leader saw Clements make par and pump his fist in the knowledge he had completed a miraculous comeback.

The pressure had been building all the way through a windy and final fourth 18-holes and the momentum remained with Clements in the decider. His tee shot on the 345-yard par four opener, the first of the sudden death holes on offer, left him with an easier second shot than his opponent. Even though he left the approach marginally shorter than he would have liked a solid putt kept a good line and left him with the simple task of wrapping up a sensational triumph.

Hacon had missed his fourth from two feet to give the rising star a chance of glory which he didn’t turn down. But he was remaining positive despite his final-day capitulation.

He said: “Obviously I’m disappointed but to put myself in that position in the first place I was really pleased.

“The way it finished, having three putts on the last hole, is a bitter pill to take. But I’ll take a lot from the weekend. The fact that I played really well and I had a chance. I’ve never been to the Norfolk amateur before and had a chance of winning it. I thought I had done enough to win it (on the 18th). I thought a five was going to be good enough. But it wasn’t the case. I had the ball on a piece of string the first two days and putted really well but that’s golf. It was like chalk and cheese the two days. Putts didn’t go in and things really didn’t go for me today (Sunday).”

Matt Bacon finished four shots back in third after claiming a final-round par 72 – a remarkable feat considering he shanked a horror 10. Saturday’s team championships was won by Hacon, fourth-placed Simon Clark and Tom Rutherford of Yarmouth and Caister.

Graphic Design

A graphic design degree can launch a fulfilling career where you can balance your artistic creativity with the ability to make a living. Graphic designers create the layout and design of magazines, advertisements, brochures, newspapers, and websites. One interesting specialization in graphic design is branding, which is the creation of the logos, color schemes, and all other graphical elements that express a corporation's identity. Another is packaging design, where the containers for retail products are created with an eye toward attracting attention, enhancing branding, and delivering essential information as quickly as possible.

If, like many creative people, you tend to be an independent person who enjoys working in quiet solitude, you may find a graphic arts degree the perfect start to a career where you can work as an independent contractor, enjoying the autonomy of a day spent in your private studio, emerging only for presentations to clients. The more sociable graduates of graphic design degree programs can be found working as members of the creative team at an advertising or web design agency, where they gain inspiration from the camaraderie and competition. Whether you work solo or on a team, deadlines will be a constant part of your work, and you need to be a person who can meet them without a lot of outside pressure. Despite the occasional stress, a graphic arts degree can bring you the perfect marriage of self-expression and self-sufficiency as it propels you into an exciting career where art and business coexist profitably.

Mofford Vetoes Legislature's State Budget, Says Democrats Were Kept Out of Process

Gov. Rose Mofford of Arizona last week vetoed the $3.2-billion state budget adopted by the Republican-controlled legislature, saying it would leave the state with a $165-million deficit.

The budget veto was the first by an Arizona governor in the state's history.

Ms. Mofford, a Democrat, also noted that lawmakers from her party were not included in budget negotiations and that the spending plan would have underfunded several programs by more than $7 million, said her press secretary, Vada Manager.

The budget would have provided precollegiate education with $1.3 billion in the fiscal year that begins July 1, up from the current level of $1.15 billion.

In her State of the State Message last January, Ms. Mofford said taxes would have to be raised by $225 mil4lion to avoid "disabling" reductions in education and other social services. Republican lawmakers, however, declined to consider her tax proposals.

The Senate had proposed eliminating the budget shortfall in part by suspending payments to the state retirement fund for teachers and state employees, but the House rejected that move.

In a related development, a group representing state employees and retirees has launched a petition drive for a ballot initiative to raise an additional $160 million for education by means of some of the Governor's tax proposals.

The initiative, which would appear on the November 1990 ballot, would raise the property-tax rate for utilities and boost the severance tax on copper. It also would prohibit the legislature from diverting contributions to the state retirement fund to other areas of the budget.

And it would grant a homeowners' tax rebate to residents of retirement communities. An organization representing retirement-community residents, which is one of the eight groups organizing the petition drive, has urged the legislature and the state courts to repeal a property tax imposed on such communities last year.--ef

Big ambitions, tiny budget for Navy energy researchers

The Navy Research Laboratory's alternative energy projects -- each costing less than $500,000 -- are modest ventures that barely register in the Pentagon's gargantuan budget.

But if history's a guide, what happens there at the Naval Research Laboratory will play a role in the nation's energy future.

For decades, the lab has developed technological breakthroughs -- among them, radar and GPS -- on a budget that major corporations and universities would consider laughable.

"The Navy has been at the forefront of several energy revolutions," said Thomas Hicks, the service's deputy assistant secretary for energy. "First, there was the switch from sail power to coal, then from coal to oil, and then we added nuclear. We see this as part of what our mission is -- to play the role of leading innovator for society at large."

Navy researchers target problems unique to the naval mission, then scramble for cash dispensed by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the Department of Energy, the Office of Naval Research and others. Competition for cash is fierce, with the lion's share going toward available technologies to help the Navy meet its ambitious, short-term energy goals.

But the Navy also knows it needs aggressive research to develop game-changing innovation, and it has a long-term plan stating that.

"People who think they know the answer are fooling themselves," Jeff Marqusee, director of the Defense Department's Environmental Security Technology Certification Program, told a recent Washington, D.C., gathering of energy entrepreneurs. "There are a lot of answers out there, most of them you haven't heard of."

Leading the Navy Research Laboratory's search for answers is Bhakta Rath, who heads its materials science division. At the top of his wish list: an innovative way of fueling jets aboard aircraft carriers, floating cities that stay at sea for months at a time and store about 5 million gallons of jet fuel.

What if, he asks, carriers could turn seawater into fuel?

Rath is working on that, a development he says could be as near as 15 years away. His team has patented technology to extract carbon from seawater that would then use a time-honored process, called Fischer-Tropsch, to turn a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen into liquid fuel.

"Ocean water can be electrolyzed to produce hydrogen -- that's not a problem," Rath said. "The challenge is, can we extract enough carbon from the ocean? Ocean water has roughly about 2 percent carbon dioxide dissolved in the water, but that's not enough."

Rath's team is tapping CO2 from carbonates and bicarbonates in ocean water. The process demands a lot of electricity, for which researchers are counting on another burgeoning technology, ocean thermal energy conversion. That process creates electricity using the temperature difference between warm surface water and cold deep water and is currently being tested by the Navy in Hawaii.

"This is a totally disruptive phenomenon," Rath said. "It would allow us to create fuel when we need it, where we need it, and how much we need it."

Getting more from biofuels

Given the military's large investments in biofuels, Navy researches are also pushing to get more power per gallon.

The camelina-derived biofuel blend the military is testing on vehicles has 10 to 20 percent less energy density than straight petroleum, Rath said.

"That's a significant reduction," he said. "But we wondered: Why can't we increase the energy density rather than decrease it?"

It is a question that industry scientists, academics and military researchers are also tackling. Rath has teamed his lab with the University of Hawaii, the University of Utah, Louisiana State University and the Naval Academy to look for ways to squeeze more power from existing fuels.

One path they're trying is nanotechnology, working with materials at the atomic or subatomic level. Scientists have known for decades that solid nanoparticles such as boron, carbon and aluminum have far higher energy density than liquid hydrocarbons, but they had not been able to harness them to boost the power of liquid fuels. Now, with advances in nanotechnology, they are able to create particles that work with fuel additives.

The Navy's research coalition effort is trying to keep the particles floating in fuels and making sure they burn at the same time the fuel does.

"We have demonstrated in preliminary studies that we can increase the energy density of fuel by so much as 15 to 20 percent," Rath said.

At sea, borates produced as a byproduct of that fuel would likely settle harmlessly in water. But on land, the effect of borates on human health would have to be tested because nano-sized particles would likely remain in the air as exhaust for a period of time.

If the tests go well and the project gets funding, Rath said the more powerful fuel could make its way into naval ships in five to seven years and to commercial vessels not long after.

'We're not lacking ideas'

To be sure, military energy research is nothing new. The Pentagon has always been looking to reduce energy use and improve performance.

But the branches' energy goals add a new level of precision to that quest.

The big question for researchers is whether adequate funding will allow them to succeed. So far, the Navy has been betting on ready-to-go biofuels. Hicks said the Navy has invested $25 million to test its vehicles on biofuel blends.

But technologies being explored at the Naval Research Laboratory do not fall into a single category within the Navy's current funding systems. That makes it next to impossible to track investments in alternative energy research and could make for a disconnect between the Navy's overall energy strategy and what actually gets funded.

Rath laments the number of good ideas that get lost to archival papers. Right now his team is also working on developing spray-on photovoltaics, harvesting electricity from the ocean's sediment and developing miniature fuel cells to power unmanned vehicles in the air and underwater.

"We're not lacking ideas," Rath said. "We're lacking funding."

Pew's Claussen discusses the costs of cap and trade

With a number of studies showing varying statistics on how much a federal cap-and-trade program will cost the average American, how can Congress accurately assess the true impact? During today's OnPoint, Eileen Claussen, president of the Pew Center on Global Climate Change, breaks down the numbers and discusses disparities among the studies. She explains why she does not believe there is an economic argument against cap and trade and gives her take on how inaccurate numbers and modeling may negatively affect Americans' perception of climate legislation.

EU trading rules to cost Â£1bn
  • Financial Times

    UK financial services will have to pay about Â£1bn (â‚¬1.5bn) to meet preparation costs for new European rules designed to improve cross-border share trading, according to a study by the Financial Services Authority, a UK watchdog.

    The FSA estimates that about 2,500 UK banks, exchanges, fund managers and stockbrokers will have to spend Â£887m to Â£1.17bn to implement the new rules, known as the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (Mifid), with likely ongoing costs of Â£100m a year. The industry, however, could also share benefits of about Â£200m a year, mostly as a result of reduced transaction costs, the FSA estimated.
    Comment: The City of London is complaining that the dreaded Mifid, aimed at bringing in a single European capital market, was pushed through without an analysis of costs and benefits by the European Commission, partly as a result of the UK governmentâ€™s failure to influence the legislative process early enough.
    It is too early to say whether the Â£1bn bill for Mifid will turn out to be cheap at the price, but a gap may open up over the next year between firms that see Mifid as a compliance challenge and those that see it as a real strategic opportunity.

  • The Times

    Mifid has already been agreed by governments and comes into force in 11 months time, but the cost-benefit analysis has come too late to shape Mifid.

    Angela Knight, chief executive of the Association of Private Client Brokers and Investment Managers, said the report confirmed the Cityâ€™s suspicions that this would be expensive nonsense â€“ that the European way is to go ahead with policy and not consider cost.
    The FSA said that more than half the City firms polled could see no obvious benefits to themselves of implementing Mifid.
    Comment: The FSAâ€™s analysis comes after the policy has been enacted, and consultants are already questioning the FSAâ€™s methodology, accusing it of playing down the expense, especially in training, and over-egging the possible benefits, which may take decades to reap.
    But the Â£1bn upfront cost is not that large â€“ one twelfth to one fifteenth of likely staff bonuses a year â€“ and it is a small cost to pay if Mifid can eventually bring down the cost of capital for European business, even if only by a couple of basis points.

  • The Guardian

    The directive could end the status of stock exchanges as a result of changes intended to free up trading across Europe.

    Seven investment banks have already issued a warning to Europeâ€™s stock markets by announcing plans to set up a trading platform that would cut costs and bypass existing exchanges. Known as Project Turquoise, this knocked the share price of the London Stock Exchange enough to prompt Nasdaq, the US exchange, to launch a Â£2.7bn hostile bid for the LSE last week.

  • The Daily Telegraph

    The new rules, which will be implemented in November 2007, aim to create a pan-European market in financial services that will provide greater transparency and value for money for customers, and also aim to obliterate the monopolies held by some stock exchanges.

    Seven banks, led by Deutsche Bank and Goldman Sachs, will next year launch their own multi-trading facility, a stock trading platform to rival the LSEâ€™s. Investment banks and other financial services firms will be able to trade cash equities without using the LSE in a not-for-profit utility, with savings passed on to users.

The Village

12 December 2005

In May, a familiar face to Financial News readers made an unexpected appearance in a Chelsea Football Club match programme, professing his undying love for the team and giving an interesting insight into footballâs changing fan demographic.

Every month, Barclays, sponsor of the Premiership, runs a Terrace Talk page in all Premiership match programmes, picking out the country’s fan of the month. That month, the subject was none other than Bob Diamond, an avowed “dedicated Chelsea supporter”.

As a representative of Barclays, Diamond presented Chelsea captain John Terry with the Premiership trophy after they beat Charlton 1-0. He said in the programme: “There is nowhere else I’d rather be today. This is a dream come true for me.”

In the interview, he mentioned that he had dabbled in football coaching himself. Given the success of Chelsea’s manager, Jose Mourinho, he might be keen to do the reverse and bring “the special one” to Barclays Capital as the latest hire in his huge European recruitment drive.

FreeNAS is a free and open source Network Attached Storage (NAS) operating system based on FreeBSD. Using FreeNAS, advanced users can create their own networked mass storage device with pre-existing hardware instead of having to purchase a dedicated and expensive NAS. Since FreeNAS does not run on a single type of hardware, kernel modules may need to be loaded for the operating system to function properly. As FreeNAS is a derivative of FreeBSD, kernel modules can be added using the same commands.

    Run the "su" command, then enter the Administrator password to become the root user.

  3. 3

    Enter "kldload module" where "module" is the name of the module you need to load. Optionally, add the "-v" parameter to view more details about the module.

Tips and warnings

  • Modules are stored in the "/boot/kernel/" directory and have a ".ko" file extension.

How to write a letter to my principal

Written by lindsey fisher

  • Share
  • Email

There are many different reasons that a student or parent might want to write a letter to their school principal. These include to address an issue, make a suggestion, ask a question or just to get to know the principal. No matter the reasoning behind it, a letter to the principal should be written in a formal business format.

Skill level:
Moderately Easy

Other People Are Reading

  1. 1

    Decide if you are going to send the letter to the principal via mail or deliver it personally. If you want to send it via mail, including your address as well as the school's address before the greeting on your letter in proper business format. If you are going to turn the letter in at the office, addresses aren't necessary. However, make sure that the principal knows how to get a response letter back to you, such as putting your homeroom number and teacher on the letter.

  2. 2

    Enter down two lines and then write your greeting using "Dear Principal' and then the principal's full name. If you don't know his first name, you can just use his last name. Follow your greeting with a semicolon.

  3. 3

    Enter down two lines before you start the body of your letter. Address the reason why you are writing the letter in your first sentence so that there is no confusion about the topic of your letter. Be very cordial and professional when writing the body of your letter while still expressing your point.

  4. 4

    Remind the principal how you can be contacted by reiterating your contact information. It is proper to give two different ways to contact you, such as a phone number and an e-mail address.

  5. 5

    Enter down two lines and write your salutation. "Sincerely yours" is a professional closing typically used in business letters.

  6. 6

    Enter down two lines and sign your letter. If you are typing your letter, enter down four lines and type your name. You should sign your name above your typed name.

  7. 7

    Proofread your letter for any spelling, grammatical or structural errors. Catching errors before the final draft of your letter is sent to the principal is important in order to come across as professionally as possible.

Love your neighbor sunday school lessons
A child can be taught the importance of loving every member of her family as much as she loves herself. (Jupiterimages/Comstock/Getty Images)

One of the lessons that should be taught in Sunday School is "Love your Neighbor." A neighbour can be someone you're sitting next to, the children at school or your actual neighbour. God instructs everyone to love Him first and then to love their neighbours as themselves. This lesson can be taught in Sunday School with visuals and Bible stories to help the children understand the topic.

The Good Samaritan

Explain to the students that Jesus told the Good Samaritan story in Luke 10:25-27 because he was making a point with a Jewish teacher. Write the word "love" on the board and ask the children to think of who they love. Tell the children that the story talks about how we should love everyone, not just our friends but our neighbours, too, including anyone we come in contact with. Read the story and point out the priest, Levite and Samaritan. Ask questions about the story, such as was it right that the Samaritan helped the man when no one else would and if the students are good Samaritans at school.

The Golden Rule

Teach the concept of "loving your neighbour as yourself" by reading these verses with the children: Romans 13:9, Galatians 5:14, John 13:34 and I Corinthians 13:4. Talk about how you should treat others as you would want to be treated. Use a noodle man puppet to illustrate the point. Make a swimming pool noodle into a man by giving him eyes and a nose drawn on paper and attached with hot glue. Cut a few inches off the other end of the noodle and cut that in half to make feet. Make a slit up the centre of one end for legs. Stuff tissue paper into the top hole for hair. Tell the students that the noodle man is sad because no one wants to play with him. Talk about how no one likes to be called names. This will help the children remember to love even the people they don't like.

What Would Jesus Do?

Make a "What Would Jesus Do" colouring page by preparing an outline image of Jesus on one side with the words "What Would Jesus Do?" above it and a blank space on the other side with "What Would You Do?" Ask the children to colour Jesus and then draw their own face in the blank space. Discuss the following questions with them: Would Jesus be nice to the mean kid at school? Would Jesus help a little girl pick up her books? Would Jesus help the teacher? How can you love your neighbours at school? To remember, have the children make bracelets with leather strings and beads with the letters "WWJD."

God's Greatest Commandments

Ask the children what they think God's greatest commandments are. Then read Matthew 22:35-38 and ask them again what God says they are. "Love the Lord your God...and love your neighbour as yourself". Discuss with the children why loving your neighbour is one of the greatest commandments. Have the children read 1 John 4:20-21 and ask them, "Why isn't it possible to love God and hate others?" Ask the children what they can do to love other people. Plan a service project with them and brainstorm ideas of who they can help in the community.

The Roles of the Umpire in Netball
Netball can be played on a basketball court. (basketball image by Yvonne Bogdanski from

Netball is a sport that derived from basketball due to a confusion of the rules. It is played similarly, but players cannot move once they have the ball. Each player has a very specific position and must play only in his section of the court. There are two umpires in netball, one for each half of the court. They share the same roles and duties, but each has the last call on his side of the court.

Pre-Game Roles

The umpire must perform many duties before each game. He starts by checking the court, goalposts, players and ball to make sure all conform to the rules of the game. The court cannot have anything stuck to the surface, such as dried liquids or foods. The ball must be fully inflated and the nets firmly attached to each goal. To protect players from injuries, the umpire then checks each player to make sure he isn't wearing anything sharp on his body, such as jewellery, a watch or any other metallic object. For the same reason, the umpire also ensures players have short, well-filed fingernails. He checks jerseys to make sure each player is wearing the correct one and that there are no tears, which could cause a jersey to rip off the body.

Running the Game

The umpire in netball makes sure each game runs smoothly and properly. He begins the game with a coin toss to decide which team starts, and he stops the game by blowing his whistle. He stops the game when any team calls a timeout. He also stops the game with his own timeouts when a team member appears injured or when something interrupts the game, such as an animal on the court or a fight erupting in the bleachers. The umpire also signals the end of a quarter, which is 15 minutes. The next blow on his whistle restarts the game. The umpire restarts the game at his discretion after he has called a timeout. The umpire signals when a goal has been scored. Each umpire controls the goal and penalty calls on his half, and although one umpire can appeal the other's call, each umpire is the last authority on his half's calls.

Calling Penalties

The umpire must watch carefully for penalties during each game. Players cannot move once they have the ball, nor can they hold the ball longer than a few seconds. Players cannot make contact with each other or leave their specific areas. Each umpire calls penalties on his own side. The other umpire can appeal, but the correct-half umpire's decision is final. After blowing the whistle to stop the game, the umpire gives the correct hand signal for the penalty and indicates which team has earned the penalty. He informs the other umpire and the team coaches of his call, then enforces the correct penalty according to the rule book, such as allowing a free throw or kicking a player out of the game.

Video Transcript

Hi, I’m Kevin Wray from Peterbrooke Chocolatier. Today, we’re going to learn how to make chocolates with lemon and pepper. This recipe, we’re going to need a fresh lemon - washed and cleaned, a lemon zester – you can pick these up at any grocery store, and then we’re going to use a fresh ground pepper – I prefer a telle cherry or a pink peppercorn, it adds a nice flavor to the recipe. Also going to need a molding tray for your chocolate bars once you’re done, and a knife and cutting board to get your ingredients ready. To get started, we’re going to start with a fresh, clean lemon. And, I’ll take our zester and just run it down the side of the lemon, and you’ll see we get these nice little strings of lemon rind coming off. There’s a lot of flavor and a lot of oil on these, and it really adds a fresh component to what we’re doing today. Alright, now that we’ve got our lemon zest, this is great and fresh, but you don’t necessarily want these little strings to be biting into. So, we’re going to go ahead and we’re going to mince this. Alright, this is about the consistency you’re looking for – so, a nice fine mince. And, we’re going to go ahead and just set this aside, and we’ll be using this in a moment. Now, we’re going to grind our peppercorns. It’s best to do these fresh, as you get the most flavor. And, you also want a slightly coarser ground than you would get in a store-bought ground pepper. Okay, now we’re ready to mix our chocolate with our ingredients and make our molds. We’re going to take a teaspoon and a half of our fresh lemon zest, add that to our chocolate. Now, we’re going to take a half a teaspoon of our fresh telle cherry ground pepper, add that to our mix for flavor. And, we’re going to stir it up well. Okay, now that we’ve got our tempered chocolate, our lemon zest, and our pepper fully mixed, we’re going to go ahead and pour it into a bar mold. And, once you’ve got your chocolate in the mold, you’re just going to bang it on the table. This is going to help remove air bubbles and spread your chocolate out. And, if you need to, you add another little dollop into any areas and just spread the chocolate into the mold. Alright, now our bars have chilled and have set in the mold, so we’re going to go ahead and flip them over, and pop them out. You can help release them by pressing gently on the bottom of the mold, and you can see the chocolate pull back. Fantastic! Here’s your lemon pepper dark chocolate bar. Enjoy!

When Is Lying The Right thing To Do?

Most people agree that being completely truthful can sometimes do a great deal of harm. When is a lie the right thing to do?Find author Bill Allin at http://billallin.com
Views: 920 Created 09/06/2008

Today I bent the truth to be kind, and I have no regret,
for I am far surer of what is kind than I am of what is true.
- Robert Brault, software developer, writer (1938- )

It's tough to argue against kindness. Each act of kindness that each person does makes the world a better place.

However, is it ever an act of kindness to bend the truth? Let's consider some possibilities.

First of all, an old saying goes: a half truth is a whole lie. What does truth look like when bent to look like something different?

I can understand why someone would want to avoid blurting out to another person, "You're ugly." But ugliness is a position on the scale of beauty. Moreover, not just ugliness but everything on the beauty scale is a matter of personal opinion, a subjective judgment that may not be shared by others. In general, when a compliment doesn't speed to the lips, it would be better to remain quiet.

What's ugly? Was the Elephant Man ugly? Joseph Merrick (inaccurately called John Merrick in the film of the same name) had a head shape that bore almost no resemblance to that of an ordinary person.

Merrick never imagined himself as handsome. He was, in the estimation of many, a very charming man. Though some of his admirers were no doubt fascinated with the extreme distortion of Merrick's head from the norm, many enjoyed his company. A great many people in this world would prefer to be admired for the enjoyment they give to others in their company than to have average looks. Thus, I submit, Joseph Merrick had a beauty about him that thousands of people admired. Ugly? Not a chance.

It's a sad person whose self esteem depends on their looks rather than on the many other admirable qualities and talents and skills that generate genuine admiration. Was Beethoven ugly? Van Gogh? Leonardo? I use these names simply because they are familiar to people around the world. I have beautiful paintings and music in my home by people few have ever heard of. Many might not like them, but most realize that calling something "ugly" is merely the personal opinion of one individual.

"You look beautiful in that new dress, dear." Some people expect to be lied to, even count on it from their loved ones. I wonder what people who expect to be lied to and want flattery about their clothing and appearance would think if they knew that others they will see in public think as negatively about their appearance and clothing as the lying loved one does. Does a woman really want to go out in public with a dress that looks terrible on her, feeling confident because her husband lied to her about it?

If the husband really cared about the appearance of his wife, he would go with her when she shopped for the dress and express his true opinion then. For a husband to leave an opinion until the last minute is as unwise as a wife leaving the enquiry until the last minute.

My first wife loved good quality black and white clothing combinations. She wore them constantly at work and received many compliments from those who worked for her. She had (she died many years ago) a "winter" complexion. Not one for false flattery, I seldom issued compliments on her outfits unless they were hanging on a hanger. I did, however, compliment her one day years before we were married. She wore a red sweater and a red pleated skirt (I love pleated skirts, especially box pleats and kilts) and I told her how great she looked (she looked stunning, but I didn't want to go overboard in front of her mother). She was offended because she claimed it was an old outfit and she hated it.

How would it have benefitted my wife to be told she looked beautiful in black and white when she looked washed out? Indeed, if I had known about "colours" then, I would have recommended that she try bright primary colours. She likely wouldn't have listened--she never did, dying with loads of regrets about how many bad decisions she had made in her life. I am colourblind anyway.

If the truth must be negative, maybe the solution is to find ways to convey it in such a manner as to make it seem like good advice.

How does it benefit someone trying to become an author to praise a manuscript that is dreadful? That person could literally spend years improving a manuscript that should have been used to start a fire. A bad story can never be beaten into submission until it's a good story.

Bending the truth, as Robert Brault claims to have done, is no advantage if it causes the listener to make unwise decisions or faulty judgments based on it. Someone looking for praise needs more than a lie. A person who accepts a lie as if it were truth, and knows it was flattery, lives a false life. We all live false lives to some extent, but we don't have to embrace it as a lifestyle.

When asked for an honest opinion, the choices should be between a sincere compliment or a constructive suggestion as to how to improve the objective under discussion. No one likes destructive criticism. Constructive criticism requires skill and practice, but it's learnable.

People gain more from constructive suggestions than they can ever benefit from allowing themselves to be deceived by lies.

The History of Ulster
Martial Law in Ulster

The Family of O'Neill - The O'Donnell Family - FitzWilliam's Cruel and Treacherous Methods - Hugh Gavlagh hanged by Tyrone - The Irish Chieftain's Complaints to the Crown - Edmund Hugh Maguire's Fate - His Head used as a Football - Tyrone repairs to England - His Submission the Prelude to a Storm.

Lest the reader may be puzzled by the number of O'Neills who now appear upon the scene of action, it may be well to define as clearly as possible the position of the various members of this great Ulster family. The first Earl, it will be remembered, was Con Bacagh (The Lame), who died in 1588. Con's illegitimate son Ferdoragh (called by the English Matthew) was, by a grave error of judgment, created, at his father's request, Baron of Dungannon. He was killed in 1557, leaving four sons, the eldest of whom, Brian, succeeded him. He was known in the correspondence of the period as "the young Baron", and, as we have seen, was murdered, when still a very young man, in 1561, by Turlough Lynnah. Brian was succeeded by his brother, Hugh, who, on petitioning the Irish House of Commons in 1585, was created Earl of Tyrone. Con Bacagh, the first Earl, was also the father of the famous Shane O'Neill, who claimed the title of Earl of Tyrone, but eventually affected to despise it. He was murdered by the Scots of Antrim in 1567. Shane's seven sons, known as the MacShanes, created at this time (1588) much trouble by claiming to be the leading members of the O'Neill family. Their names were Hugh Gavelagh, Con, Brian, Henry, Arthur, Edmund, and Turlough. Of these the first three were the most formidable. But there was still another claimant to the title of The O'Neill, and he was Turlough Brasselagh, a brother of Con, the first Earl of Tyrone. In addition to this somewhat bewildering number of "Richmonds in the field", we must include the now aged Turlough Lynnagh, the actual chief, who was the grandson of Art Oge O'Neill, also a brother of Con Bacagh.

It can easily be realized that Ulster, while all these turbulent chieftains of the O'Neill blood were struggling for supremacy, was no peaceful paradise.

Having, we hope, cleared up the ramifications of the O'Neill family, it may be well also to define those of the O'Donnells. It will be remembered that Calvagh O'Donnell, who was married to a half-sister of the Earl of Argyll (known to the Irish Annalists as "the Countess of Argyll"), was, with his wife, captured by Shane O'Neill and imprisoned for years, while "the Countess" became Shane's mistress. Calvagh fell from his horse and died on the field of battle in 1566. His son, Con, who was described by Sussex as "assuredly the likeliest plant that can grow in Ulster to graft a good subject on", died in 1583, leaving nine sons, of whom Nial Garv was the most formidable. The actual chief of Tirconnell at the time of the defeat of the Spanish Armada was Sir Hugh O'Donnell (a brother of Calvagh), who, ever since he had helped the English to crush Shane O'Neill, had been a persona grata with the Government at Dublin. He had the questionable pleasure of being known as "Ineen Duive's husband". Black Agnes (as her name signifies) was a MacDonald, and an Irish prototype of Lady Macbeth. By her orders, Hugh, son of Calvagh O'Donnell (her husband's nephew), was murdered, because he had the temerity to claim the succession in Tirconnell. Nor was this the only murder of which she was guilty, for one of the sept of O'Gallagher annoying her by his independent bearing, she promptly had him removed by a violent death. Ineen Duive had many sources of annoyance, but the chief source for many years was an illegitimate son of her husband, named Donnell. He appears to have been older than Ineen's son, and married a daughter of Turlough Lynnagh. In 1588 he was made sheriff by Fitz William.

FitzWilliam himself, by his iron rule and his treacherous methods of administration, had earned the hatred of all classes and creeds. When he notified Maguire of Fermanagh that he was sending a sheriff to his territory, the Irish chieftain, knowing the Deputy's ways, offered a big bribe, writing at the same time: "Your sheriff will be welcome, but let me know his eric, that, if my people cut off his head, I may levy it upon the country". The bribe was accepted, and Maguire was assured that no sheriff would be sent. Notwithstanding this promise a sheriff was sent, "who brought with him 300 of the scum of creation and who lived on the plunder of the people".

The MacShanes now commenced to give trouble. Con MacShane, who had been imprisoned by Turlough Lynnagh, was after a while set at liberty by the old chieftain and taken into his confidence. Hugh Gavelagh (or the fettered, from the fact that he was born during his mother's imprisonment), who had been two years in Scotland, now returned to Ulster, and was supposed to have incurred the enmity of the Earl of Tyrone by giving information to the Government. He is said to have communicated to the Lord Deputy charges of treason against the Earl, alleging, amongst other things, that he had plotted with shipwrecked Spaniards to obtain help from the King of Spain to levy war against the Queen.

The Earl denied the charges. Hugh Gavelagh was seized by some of the Maguires, sold to Tyrone, and by him hanged on a thorn-tree, the legend being that, owing to the universal veneration of the name of Shane O'Neill, no man could be found in Tyrone willing to be executioner of his son, and consequently, it is said, the Earl himself acted as hangman. This Tyrone denied, giving the names of the actual executioners, and defending his conduct strenuously. Hugh Gavelagh, he said, had murdered many men, women, and children, and there was no regular law in Ulster, "but certain customs . . . and I hope Her Majesty will consider that, as her Highness's lieutenant under the Deputy (as I take myself within my own territory), I am bound to do justice upon thieves and murderers; otherwise, if I be restrained from such-like executions, and liberty left to O'Neill, O'Donnell, and others to use their ancient customs, then should I not be able to defend my country from their violence and wrongs". "In this sentence", writes Mr. Bagwell, "we have the whole difficulty of Tudor rule in Ireland briefly expressed. The Government was not strong enough to enforce equal justice, and practically confessed its impotence by allowing authority to lapse into the hands of Tyrone and such as he. From FitzWilliam downwards, nearly all the officials seemed to think that they could keep things quiet by strengthening a man who aimed at being O'Neill in the fullest sense of the word, but who was quite ready to play at being an earl when it suited him, and to remember his English education."

There were many complaints from Ulster of the tyranny and injustice of the agents of the Government. Fermanagh was raided on the one side by Sir Richard Bingham, President of Connaught, and on the other by Henslowe, the new seneschal of Monaghan, who drove Maguire's cattle, killed the women and children, and exacted illegal ransoms. Edmund Maguire's head was struck from his shoulders and was insolently kicked about as a football by the soldiers. Shane M 'Brian complained that after his father's death Island Magee, time out of mind his proper inheritance, was taken from him by Lord Essex, and had ever since been kept from him, and that afterwards Sir Henry Bagenal, Marshal of Ireland, took from him the lands of Mawghryre More, and, rinding him in Newry, imprisoned him, and would not deliver him "until he had passed unto him what assurance he would have upon the said barony".

Maguire stated that the late Lord Deputy and Council had given him special letters of favour that neither the Binghams nor his other borderings should molest him; "yet Sir R. Bingham, and the rest of his name in Connaught, came with force and arms into his country, burned it, killed divers women and children, and took from him 3000 cows, besides 500 garrons and mares, and certain women and prisoners, whom he was fain to ransom, that, although letters were sent by the Lord Deputy and Council to Sir R. Bingham for causing amends to be made, he (Sir R. Bingham) came forthwith again into Fermanagh, at two several times, and preyed Maguire of 6000 cows, besides much murder; that Captain Henshaw [Henslowe], Seneschal of Monaghan, came several times with his forces to places in Fermanagh, captured 3000 cows, and killed men, women, and children; but Sir William FitzWilliam caused no redress thereof; that in the several sheriffships of Sir Henry Duke and Sir E. Harbert, in the County Cavan, they killed and preyed Maguire's tenants to his and their damages of 3000. Afterwards, the said Lord Deputy being in Monaghan, Maguire obtained faithful oath and promise that he should not be charged with Sheriffs or other offices, in regard of his coming to do obedience for one whole year; for which grant he paid, as a bribe to his Lordship and others, 300 beeves, besides 150 beeves to the Marshal (Sir H. Bagenal); but Captain Willis, having Captain Fuller's band and other companies with him, was sent with commission to be sheriff there, and preyed the country. They cut off the head of Edmund Hugh M'Guire, and hurled it from place to place as a football. These hard courses compelled him to expulse the said Willis and his companions; whereupon ensued the proclaiming of himself and his followers, and their banishment out of the country."

One more sample may be given of these statements made by Irish chiefs of injuries which they had suffered. The complaint of the M'Mahons was: "The said Brian M'Hugh Oge saith that Hugh Roe M'Mahowne, named M'Mahowne by Sir William FitzWilliam, and so confirmed and allowed to succeed by virtue of his brother's letters patent, and coming into the state upon the word of a nobleman, and the word of Henry More, of Mellifont, deed., was afterwards most unjustly and treacherously executed by the said Sir William at his own house at Monaghan. Which allowance of succession, as this M'Mahowne doth imagine, was granted him, the said Hugh, purposely to draw an interest unto him and his heirs, contrary to the custom of the country, and then by his execution to draw the county into her Majesty's hands, as by the sequel showeth. After whose execution a garrison was placed in Monaghan, the name of M'Mahowne extinguished, and the substance of the county divided by the said Sir W. FitzWilliam between Sir H. Bagnall, Baron Elliott, Mr. Solicitor (Wilbraham), Captain Henshawe, Captain Willis, the Parson O'Connellan, Hugh Strewbridge, Thomas Asshe, Charles Fleminge, and divers strangers, and so the native country people for the most part disinherited; and some of those that had portions allotted to them were afterwards slain and murdered namely, Patk. M'Collo M'Bryen, coming upon safe-conduct to the Parson O'Connellan, then Justice of the Peace, and chief man in authority for her Majesty in that county, was intercepted by an ambush, appointed by the said Parson and Captain Willis, and there slain."

In the majority of cases no notice was taken by the Government of the chieftains' remonstrances, and the complaints were not reported to the Queen. In cases where such complaints were laid before her, Elizabeth, in replying, does not deny the facts stated, but asserts that the acts complained of were done without her authority, or that, if they had been reported to her, she would have seen speedy redress.

The Earl of Tyrone, having no confidence in the officials of the Pale, set out in 1590 for England to lay his grievances before the Queen. This step, however, was in itself illegal, as he left Ireland without the licence of the Viceroy, and he was accordingly imprisoned in the Tower of London. His incarceration was neither long nor rigorous, and a month later his submission was graciously received, and articles by which he bound himself anew to his former engagements were signed by him. He renounced the title of O'Neill, consented that Tyrone should be made shire-ground; that jails should be erected there; that a composition for seven years' purveyance, payable by instalments, should be paid within ten months; that he should levy no armed force, or make any incursion into a neighbouring territory except to follow a prey within five days after the capture of such prey from his own lands, or to prevent depredations from without. He undertook to execute no man without a commission from the Lord Deputy, except in cases of martial law, and to keep his troop of horsemen in the Queen's pay ready for service. In addition, he promised not to admit monks or friars into his territory; nor to correspond with foreign traitors; to promote the use of English apparel; to sell provisions to the fort of the Blackwater, &c.

For the fulfilment of these conditions he pledged his honour, and promised to send unexceptionable sureties, who were, however, not to be detained as prisoners in Dublin Castle, but to be committed to the care of merchants in the city, or of gentlemen of the Pale. The sureties might also be changed every three months. The Government, on the other hand, undertook to protect the Earl from all molestation, by requiring similar conditions from the neighbouring chieftains; and Tyrone, on returning to Ireland, confirmed these articles before the Lord Deputy and Council; but very prudently excused himself from the execution of them until the neighbouring Irish noblemen had given securities to fulfil the conditions on their part, as it was stipulated they should be obliged to do. Camden asserts that for some time Tyrone omitted nothing that could be expected from a most dutiful subject.

This attitude, however, did not last long. The troubles in Ulster were only commencing!

Development and Religion

Theology and Practice

Matthew Clarke

Development and Religion explores how the world’s five major religions – Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam – understand and practice ‘development’ through an examination of their sacred texts, social teaching and basic beliefs.

Chapter 4: Judaism: A Cry for Justice

Matthew Clarke

Subjects: development studies, development studies, social policy and sociology, comparative social policy, social policy in emerging countries

OVERVIEW OF BELIEFS Introduction Key Jewish figures are familiar to many as they also appear in the sacred texts of Christianity and Islam. However, the exact dates and the historical authenticity of the existence of many of these key figures are less clear than those of the key figures of Christianity and Islam and indeed Buddhism. The inclusion of Judaism in a book examining the theological understanding of development issues and practical expressions of this through affiliated faith-based organisations appears quite reasonable at first glance. Judaism is one of the world’s great religions, and thus it seems intuitively appropriate to include it in such a book as this; indeed, as the faith that gave rise to Christianity and Islam, it has an important place in the history of world religions. However, there are a number of possible arguments that might be made as to why Judaism ought not to be included in this book. First, Judaism has a very small number of adherents. There are only approximately 13 million Jews throughout the world, of whom 80 per cent live in Israel or the United States of America (O’Brien and Palmer 2007).1 This is in contrast, for example, with the 24 million Sikhs, the majority of whom live in India. It might also be further argued that as Judaism is so closely associated with both an ethnic group and geographical location it does not have a vision for the world beyond its own destiny (see Herder 1997 for a more...
