The Venerable Cardinal himself. This portrait is one of the few where his Cardinalatial arms can be glimpsed, on the cover of a book in the foreground. (Source).
Readers of this blog will learn with no surprise that, having finished Lady Amabel Kerr’s biography of the Venerable Cardinal Baronius, my admiration for this great Oratorian has increased tenfold. As I have concluded the volume, so lovingly edited and reprinted by Mediatrix Press, on the very birthday of the illustrious historian, I thought I might reproduce here two extended passages from Baronius’s correspondence that I found particularly edifying.
The first passage is taken from a letter that Baronius wrote to one Justin Calvin. I have thus far been unable to locate much further information about said Calvin, unrelated, I think, to the heresiarch Reformer. Baronius’s Annales and extended correspondence with Justin led to the latter’s eventual conversion. Calvin (or Justus Baronius Calvinus, as he was called once he added Baronius’s name to his own) went on to become a priest and author of, among other works, an Apologia that justified his conversion. God manifestly works in mysterious ways within the long lives of religious orders. He is inordinately fond of strange and unintended coincidences.
I return many thanks to the great and most high God, whose tender mercies, as sings David, are over all His works, for having called you out of darkness into His marvellous light. No benefit, no grace can be greater than this, so see that you cherish it carefully and guard it jealously. Do not indulge in paeans of victory; but rather remember that exhortation of the Apostle to walk circumspectly, not as unwise but as wise, redeeming the time because the days are evil…When the devil has been overthrown, he is apt to rise up with renewed vigour, and assault his former conqueror more violently than ever. Our Lord tells us of the wicked spirit who, having gone out of a man, did not rest, but fetched seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and retook by fraud the soul whence he had been driven…Be sure that he will seek you who have escaped him and are now fighting in the ranks of the Church. He may not betray his designs, for he fears lest Saul-converted into Paul by his reconciliation to the Church-should by the first of divine love deal destruction on the lies by which he is wont to overcome men. You, a soldier of Jesus Christ, beware, and lose not hold on the shield of faith which you have taken up. Be master of yourself, overcome yourself, and take heed that you, who were once in the employ of the prince of darkness, be not ashamed of being enrolled under the banner of Christ your Captain…You have, however, no real cause for fear, but only for joy. Rejoice if you are found worthy to suffer anything for the Catholic faith and in defence of the truth. I showed your letter to our Supreme Pastor, who rejoiced to hear the bleating of his one-time lost sheep, who has been found worthy to hear the voice of the Shepherd. He is addressing to you an Apostolic letter, by which he embraces you as if with extended arms, and by his written words places you on his shoulders rejoicing. In him you will always find a true pastor and father. (Kerr 295-96).
It behoves me to imitate our Lord and Master Jesus Christ, of whom the Gospel says that He taught as one having authority and not as the scribes, which means that He preached with truth and liberty, whereas they, in their adulation of Herod, yielded to that king’s taste in everything. Far be it from me, I repeat, to write like the scribes, and not declare the truth freely as did Christ. After Him I turn to the holy fathers of the Church, whose example, in writing, it behoves me to follow. In their maintenance of the truth in the face of those who attacked it, they displayed unbending constancy of soul. They did not make use of cringing, diluted, soft expressions, but, on the contrary, employed a language both grand and strong, mingling with it a sharpness of censure which converted their sentences into so many flashes of lightning. If you look through the Annals you will find scarcely a year in which some such example is not cited.
By studying the fathers and relating their acts I have by habit adopted their manner of speaking, which should not, in my opinion, be despised, for such speech is bestowed as a gift of the Spirit rather than obtained by human learning. When dealing with heretic or schismatic innovators, or else with princes who corrupt ecclesiastical discipline by their violation of the laws of the Church, or endeavour by their tyranny to reduce her to servitude, I have acquired the habit of writing with the indiscretion which you censure. The words of the prophet, “Cry, cease not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their wicked doings,” keep resounding in my ears as if from heaven. When Eugenius IV was made Pope, St. Bernard exhorted him to nominate Cardinals who should act as John did towards Herod, Moses towards the Egyptians, Phineas towards the fornicators, Elias towards the idolaters, Eliseus towards misers, Peter towards liars, Paul towards blasphemers, and, finally, as our Lord Himself acted towards traffickers in the temple. In other words he urged the Pope to choose men armed with zeal against sinners, who should act everywhere and in every way in such a manner as to sweep away the workers of iniquity. Such is the model drawn for us by the Holy Ghost, and if we do not conform ourselves to it we shall be convicted of deformity. (Kerr 318-20).
These are just some of the words which the Venerable Cardinal let slip as so much nectar from his pen and tongue. He was truly one of the greatest scholars that the Church has ever produced, and he revolutionized the discipline of ecclesiastical history. Yet Baronius always saw the Annales as a secondary work to the simple task of salvation. His humility was legendary, and Kerr’s portrait of Baronius captures this peculiar virtue in all its many expressions.
It may be said that he never wasted a moment of that rare though precious time when it was permitted him to turn his thoughts directly to God. While driving about in his coach he used to pull down the blinds and give himself over unrestrainedly to the things of the soul, bidding his companion recall him to himself if anything occurred which required his attention. When thus shut into darkness he usually repeated the Holy Name over and over again, or else dwelt lovingly on his favourite interjection, “Eternitas, eternitas,” words which were but the epitome of his ceaseless longing for death and the state beyond the grave. (Kerr 282).
Baronius teaches us to use time—that is, our place in history—well. May we follow in his glorious footsteps and one day enjoy with him the eternity he so ardently desired.
My friend, Archbishop Mark Haverland, Primate of the Anglican Catholic Church, has just started a new blog called “Anglican Catholic Liturgy and Theology.” You really get what it says on the tin with this one. For those of us with an interest in Anglo-Catholic history, theology, and practice, Archbishop Haverland’s blog will no doubt prove to be a great resource.
Those of you following the kerfuffle that has ensued after Spadaro and Figueroa’a article on the alleged political union of American integralists and Evangelicals will no doubt be pleased to know that P. J. Smith has written an excellent introduction to the former over at his blog, Semiduplex. Anyone hoping to achieve a better understanding of integralist theory, and why Spadaro’s assessment is so flawed, would do well to take Smith as his guide.
Vera Effigies Augustini Calmet Abbatis Senonensis. (Source).
I was recently asked by the administrator of Catholics from the Crypt to write a brief introduction to Dom Augustin Calmet, Abbot-General of the Congregation of St. Vanne. My qualifications for this task are minimal but, I think, sufficient. First, I know a little about Calmet, which is, sadly, more than many can say. He is an unfairly overlooked figure in our religious and cultural landscape. Secondly, I hope to write my Master’s Thesis on Calmet’s Histoire Universelle, though of course the actual process of research might change my direction. For the time being, I am glad of the challenge, and will likely turn this into the first of a series of short biographies of weird religious figures.
Dom Calmet, born on the 26th of February, 1672, in the then-Duchy of Bar (now Lorraine, France) had a long and impressive career. Entering religious life at the Benedictine Priory of Breuil, he moved around over the years to obtain his education at various abbeys. His itinerary reads like an honor roll of some of the finest establishments of the Franco-German monastic intelligentsia: St. Mansuy, St. Èvre, Munster, Mouyenmoutier, Lay-Saint-Christophe, St. Leopold. Yet the two monasteries most closely associated with his career are Senones Saint-Pierre and Vosges, where he eventually died a holy death.
He achieved widespread scholarly respect for his work in three different fields. First, Calmet distinguished himself as an Exegete. His Biblical method differed from more classical forms of exegesis by focusing entirely on the literal meaning of the text; this exposed him to criticism, even amidst the general acclaim which the book and its abridgements garnered.

Second, he became an eminent author of sacred and profane history. While my own interest lies most heavily with his Histoire Universelle (1735-47), Calmet also devoted considerable attention to more specific topics. It should come as no surprise, given the libraries to which he had access, that he devoted special care to the region which bore him. His titles include History of the Famous Men of Lorraine (1750), Dissertation on the Highways of Lorraine (1727), Genealogical History of the House of Châtelet (1741), and posthumous histories of both Senones (1877-81) and Munster (1882).
However, Calmet achieved lasting fame for his extremely popular work on Vampires: first, Dissertations on the Apparitions of Angels, Demons, and Spirits, and on the Revenants and Vampires of Hungary, Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia (1746) He later expanded the text into his famous Treatise on the Apparitions of Spirits and on the Vampires or Revenants of Hungary, of Moravia, &c. in 1752. These texts were, to the best of my knowledge, the first attempt to apply scientific rigor to the tales of the undead then current throughout Europe.
Re-released in 1748, with the most complete edition in 1751, this book is considered to be [the] authoritative treatment on the subject, containing an unprecedented collection of ghostly stories of revenants. It was a best seller for the period, quickly translated into German and Italian for a broader audience. Calmet’s tone considers the possibility of vampires with a certain ambiguity, possibly in light of the larger body of his publications for the church. Still, this is widely regarded as the starting point of all vampiric literature.
What! It is in our 18th century that there have been vampires! It is after the reign of Locke, of Shaftesbury, of Trenchard, of Collins; it is under the reign of d’Alembert, of Diderot, of Saint-Lambert, of Duclos that one has believed in vampires, and that the Reverend Priest Dom Augustin Calmet, priest, Benedictine of the Congregation of Saint-Vannes and Saint-Hydulphe, abbot of Senones, an abbey of a hundred thousand livres of rent, neighbor of two other abbeys of the same revenue, has printed and re-printed the History of Vampires, with the approbation of the Sorbonne, signed by Marcilli!
We can only imagine what conversation transpired between the two thinkers when Voltaire stayed at Senones in 1754, only a few years before the abbot’s death.
My goal is not at all to foment superstition, nor to maintain the vain curiosity of Visionaries, and of those who believe without examination all that one tells them, as soon as they find therein the marvelous and the supernatural. I do not write but for those reasonable and unprejudiced spirits, who examine things seriously and with sang-froid; I do not speak but for those who do not give their consent to known truths but with maturity, who know to doubt things uncertain, to suspend their judgment in things doubtful, and to refute that which is manifestly false. (Calmet ii).
Perhaps we should not be so surprised. After all, the religious history of Europe is peppered with eccentric and erudite men drawn to esoteric studies. And by the time that Dom Calmet died in 1757, the French monastics had not yet reached the height of their oddity. That would come later, with the well-traveled and thoroughly bizarre Swedenborgian and Martinist monk Antoine-Joseph Pernety, whom I hope to someday investigate more thoroughly.
The Revolution changed all that. No longer could monks live their lives freely, let alone attempt serious academic inquiry. It would take the genius of men like Dom Prosper Guéranger to restore the French Benedictines to their former glory.

I came across this passage in Lady Amabel Kerr’s biography of Cardinal Baronius, as republished by Mediatrix Press in 2015. It comes a letter sent by the Abbot of St. Martin’s to Baronius when the latter was “in a fit of despondency…as to the real value of the Annals” (Kerr 154). I felt it was a good bit of advice generally, and thought I’d make it more readily available here for those who might derive some benefit therefrom. The translation is, no doubt, from Lady Kerr’s own hand. It can be found on page 154 of the volume.
Do not be cast down. Eat the bread of life and drink of eternal wisdom; and so will you more easily reach the Mount of God. You have not got to live for yourself alone, but for the Church of God and the good of your fellow men. Acquit yourself manfully, and your heart will be comforted, and God will sustain you. Truly it belongs to our mortality to be filled with fear when we look forward to the day of our judgment; but perceiving as we do so many earnests of our eternal happiness, and experiencing as we do the work of the Spirit of God within us, why should we be anxious and tormented of soul? Be of good heart, my Cesare, and think of nothing but of persevering until you have completed your work, which is so pleasing to the Church, and which will live for ever. When it is finished, then by all means devote yourself solely to the thoughts of eternal life; and I feel confident that at the last day the just Judge will give to you, who have worn yourself out by your labours for Him, a crown of justice.

Two-time Academy Award winner Dustin Hoffman teams up with Adam Sandler in the heart warming comedy-drama “The Cobbler” directed by acclaimed and Oscar nominee Tom McCarthy(“Up”).
for generations from his father (Hoffman). Disenchanted with the grind of daily life, Max stumbles upon an heirloom that allows him to step into the lives of his customers and see the world in a new way. Sometimes walking in another man's shoes is the only way to find out who you really are.
Set in New York’s Lower East Side where the central character’s story has spent his youth and adult life. A character in itself, the setting, the diversity of New York and the history of the Lower East Side play heavily in the story. The movie starts in 1903 in a tenement building such it owes a lot to the history of that particular neighbourhood, something that’s constantly referenced in the movie, right up to the very last scene.
The movie’s production designer Steve Carter, has created a place that felt like it had been there for one hundred and fifty years. “We had people walking in while we were shooting trying to drop off shoes, which I think is always a good sign. He really made a place that felt everyday and magical. And beyond that, we had so many different worlds that Steve had to create. And some of them more fantastical than others but always rooted in our reality. So there was a balance between the worlds.
12 different characters would also wear. It was fun to see that happening,” related director McCarthy on the film’s location and production.
“The Cobbler” opens this March 11 in cinemas from Pioneer Films.

Racing games are at their best when they bring me as close to the real action, feel and true performance of the car they are simulating. With the v4 patch and latest AI I found something truly realistic with this GT4 class race at the Red Bull Ring. The lap times of the cars are as good as perfectly matched to the real 2017 GT4 European Series Red Bull Ring race, full results and times here https://north.gt4series.com/calendar/event/4 with laps in the 1:38.3 - 1:42 range. The in game setting to achieve these times was 92% AI and 100% aggression to keep the action close. It is just so good that the player is able to match these real lap times with a bit of effort and minimal setup changes and that the car feels real to drive.
It's more than just lap times of course, the racing is close and exciting and feels superb, especially in Rift VR, here is a short 4 lap version of the race (to keep the video file sizes reasonable) to show just how good the action is. The way the AI fight back after they are overtaken is just brilliant, they don't give up and punish the players mistakes.
Doug and his team have produced some seriously stunning AI work here, I just have to thank them for their effort and being willing to listen to feedback to continue to improve the game.
Is the Project CARS 2 AI up there with the best racing games now? I think at v4 it is. While the v3 AI was much improved there was one game that had slightly better AI, better at taking the first corner and providing a closer fight with the player. Now, Project CARS 2 has caught up and in many ways surpassed what was the best AI out there. I've put together a side by side so the comparison there for you to see, both games produce real lap times, both sets of AI fight hard and fair.
Where Project CARS 2 clearly has the edge is the range of GT4 cars in the game, the clarity and draw distance in VR and the more visceral sound. The AI are now a match for any game I've experienced and I think they will get better yet. Are the AI as good as racing similarly skilled friends in multiplayer, no not quite that human fallibility is something yet to be captured but blimey the AI are getting close now.
Most of all though this game delivers both a realistic and thrilling experience and that is exactly what I, and I'm sure, many others want from a game like this.
If you've found similar realistic combinations post them up so we can give them a go.

Army officials visit a burial site where 10 bodies were found near a graveyard in Inn Din village in southern Maungdaw.
YANGON—A Myanmar Army investigation panel has determined that villagers and security forces killed 10 Rohingya allegedly affiliated with Muslim militants who launched a series of attacks on security outposts in northern Maungdaw last year.
The Army investigation followed the discovery of 10 bodies near a graveyard in Inn Din village in southern Maungdaw Township, Rakhine State in December.
According to a press release issued by the panel on Wednesday afternoon, a five-member team led by Lieutenant-General Aye Win visited Inn Din village between Dec. 20 and Jan. 2 and interviewed 21 Army witnesses, three Border Police officers, 13 members of No. 8 Security Unit, six Inn Din villagers and six civil servants.
The 10 Rohingya were involved in attacks organized by the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA)—a Muslim militant group denounced by the government as a “terrorist organization” after a series of attacks last year—and arrested on Sept. 1 during a clearance operation in Inn Din village.
“While they should have been handed over to the police station, the security forces at the time were too busy implementing security measures in the surrounding areas to do so. So it was decided that the Rohingya would be executed at the village graveyard,” the statement reads.
The executions occurred on Sept. 2. They were carried out by three villagers using knives and four security force personnel armed with guns, according to the press release. Two of the villagers involved were taking revenge for the killing of their father at the hands of Rohingya militants, according to the statement.
“As the villagers and security troops confessed to the killings, they will be prosecuted according to the law,” it reads.
The team determined that security officials involved in the incident did not report it to their superiors. Those officials found to be responsible will be punished and their actions made public, according to the statement.
Since the ARSA attacks in August last year, northern Rakhine State has been ravaged by clearance operations by Myanmar security forces, causing an exodus of more than 600,000 Rohingya Muslims to nearby Bangladesh. Some of the refugees have reported witnessing or being subjected to arbitrary killings, rapes and the torching of property by the security forces and local vigilantes.

The Nest Cam IQ Outdoor is the smartest security camera we've tested, using a 4K sensor, motion tracking, and facial recognition to protect your home while weeding out irrelevant notifications. Crucially, it's also incredibly easy to use, and is built like a brick. There are more affordable alternatives, but none matches the IQ Outdoor's smarts and design.
Last year, Nest launched one of the most intelligent Wi-Fi cameras on the market, the Nest Cam IQ. It aimed to make your home more secure with the help of facial recognition, a 4K image sensor, and person-tracking. Now the Google-owned company is extending that intelligence outside, with the Nest Cam IQ Outdoor.
The Nest Cam IQ Outdoor is essentially a redesigned and more intelligent version of the brand’s existing Nest Cam Outdoor, with a redesigned exterior and added features to give you extra piece of mind.
It works seamlessly with the same Nest companion app, although to get the most from this new device you’ll have to sign up for the Nest Aware service, which is an additional monthly cost on top of the already expensive camera.
So does the IQ Cam Outdoor live up to Nest’s lofty promises? We installed one in our garden to find out.
The Nest Cam IQ Outdoor is available now in the UK and US; we don't know about availability for Australia yet, but as Nest's other cameras are available there we expect it to arrive in due course.
The Nest Cam IQ Outdoor looks very similar to previous Nest products, so if you own any of those it’ll fit right in. It’s aesthetically most similar to the indoor Cam IQ and standard Cam Outdoor, although perhaps the biggest difference if how large this camera is. At 9.3cm (3.7 inches) in diameter and 12.8cm (5 inches) long it’s clearly not going to get missed on the side of a building, which is a good thing if you want to deter potential burglars, but not so good if you want something more subtle.
It’s heavy, as well, weighing in at 568g (20oz). This helps make it feel incredibly solid and well put-together.
It’s rugged, and weatherproof to an IP66 certification. That’s up from IP65 on the standard Outdoor Cam, and means it’ll survive in a downpour. It’s also capable of operating in temperatures from -40°C to 45°C (-40°F to 113°F), so unless you live somewhere pretty extreme you shouldn’t need to worry about the weather.
The Nest Cam IQ Outdoor comes with a base that can be screwed to your wall, and which provides a magnetic docking station for the camera. Once in place, the camera can only be removed from the base by using a proprietary tool.
The power cable can be fixed one of two ways, either into the side of the base and along the exterior wall, or directly through the wall into the back of the base; this second option was a much-requested feature, apparently, and ensures the power supply can’t be tampered with.
It comes with a 7.5m (25ft) USB-C to USB-C cable.
The Nest Cam IQ Outdoor features a 4K HDR sensor, but the highest resolution you’ll actually see is 1080p. This downsampled image is what allows Nest to include all of the additional intelligent features, such as close-up tracking (where the camera automatically zooms in on motion) and 12x digital zoom. IR sensors around the lens ensure that it can see clearly in the dark up to 10 meters away, and a high-quality loudspeaker and three microphones are built in for two-way audio communication.
When using the two-way communication function, a bright blue LED ring will illuminate around the lens, another feature designed to deter potential burglars.
Perhaps the most useful function of the Cam IQ Outdoor is that it packs facial recognition. Adding trusted faces enables you to customize notifications, so that you only get notified of unfamiliar guests or intruders.
Another thing that sets the Nest Cam IQ Outdoor apart from similar products is the slick Nest app for iOS and Android. It’s the same app that you use to control your thermostat and smoke alarm, and it’s clearly several notches above the competition.
The app shows you a live feed from your cameras, and, if you pay for a subscription to Nest Aware, you can customize your notifications by setting up to three active motion zones. These are areas within the camera’s view which can be drawn and designated as sensitive to movement.
You won’t find a microSD card slot for local video storage here, as all footage is stored in the cloud.
Nest Aware is subscription service that unlocks access to advanced features with an extra layer of intelligence (such as custom activity zones, familiar face alerts, and person talking or dog barking alerts), as well as 5-day, 10-day or 30-day continuous video history.
This service costs £4/$5 per month or £40/$50 per year for five days of cloud backup for video, £8/$10 per month or £80/$100 per year for 10 days of backup, or £24/$30 per month or £240/£300 per year for 30 days.
Nest includes everything you need to install the Cam IQ Outdoor, from the screws and wall plugs that fix the magnetic base to the wall to the cable clips that keep the USB-C cable close to the wall.
If you’re going for the neatest and most secure installation, you’ll have to drill from the outside of your house through to the inside. If you’re not confident doing that, Nest offers a professional installation service.
Getting the camera online is made easy by the Nest companion app, which takes you through the set-up step-by-step.
Once set up, you’ll be using one of the best smart home apps in the business. It’s slick, well-designed software that works without many hiccups.
The image quality from the Cam IQ Outdoor is some of the best we’ve seen, with the camera recording 1080p at a solid 30 frames per second. Whereas we experienced some buffering issues with the standard Nest Cam Outdoor, the IQ Outdoor has greatly improved connectivity thanks to a 2x2 MIMO chip.
The high-power 850nm infrared LEDs ensure you get excellent video quality in complete darkness too, something cheaper cameras struggle with.
As for audio, the microphone is sensitive enough to pick up subtle sounds, while the speaker delivers a clear voice when you talk via your phone.
The Nest Cam IQ Outdoor feels incredibly well made, and is guaranteed to survive in the harshest weather conditions. The 7.5m cable is useful, and the strong magnetic bracket is an reassuringly secure way to fix it to a wall. Picture quality is excellent both by day and by night, while motion tracking and facial recognition are super-useful features which actually work. Another big plus is the impressive app.
The Cam IQ Outdoor could be difficult to install, especially if you’re a DIY novice, while there's no getting around the fact that this is expensive an expensive security camera – and while the initial outlay is steep, to get the most out of the camera you also need to take out a subscription to Nest Aware, which is an additional cost.
The Nest Cam IQ Outdoor is easily the most intelligent home security camera available. Not only does it boast a number of useful features, such as facial recognition and motion zooming, but it’s backed up by the most user-friendly companion app we’ve tested. The only problem is that it’s also the most expensive camera we’ve tested, and unless you pay for a subscription you can't access all of the camera’s features, which is a tough pill to swallow.
Having said that, we think it’s worth every penny.

WASHINGTON, August 8, 2007 – Each year about 500,000 men and women are arrested for domestic violence in states that have enacted laws that require arrest. But now Harvard University researcher Radha Iyengar reports that such laws are worsening, not solving, the problem of partner abuse.
She tracked homicide rates in states that have implemented mandatory arrest, compared with states without such laws. In the 22 states that require arrest, partner homicides have increased by 50%, while in the other states, homicides have actually declined.
According to the New York Times article, Dr. Iyengar attributes the growth in homicides to the fact that many victims of abuse do not want their partners put behind bars. "And over the years, it turns out, that realization seems to have led victims to contact the police less," Iyengar explains.
Mandatory and pro-arrest laws are encouraged by the federal Violence Against Women Act, which authorizes $75 million a year to implement such policies.
"For years, victims have been saying they want their voices to be heard, not ignored, by the police," notes RADAR spokesman David Heleniak. "Now, we are seeing that mandatory arrest laws not only silence victims, they may actually trigger retaliatory violence."
Two surveys found that abused women were more satisfied with police intervention when the officers complied with the victim's request to not arrest the alleged offender.
Earlier this year RADAR published a report, "Arrest Policies for Domestic Violence," that concluded, "Taxpayers' money would be better spent on programs that actually help to solve the problem of domestic violence without trampling on persons' civil rights." The report can be seen at: http://www.mediaradar.org/docs/RADARreport-Justice-Denied-DV-Arrest-Policies.pdf.

Purchased a new computer, it had (of course!!) Windows 10 which I really don't understand but - new computer cam with MS Office 365 trial - I purchased an OEM version of MC Office Professional Plus 2013 and this worked well until I started having problems with the settings in my Outlook email accounts so I called an IT guy for some help, he ended up with not being able to help me suggesting I contact my provider which I did but before he left I asked if he could remove 365 as I didn't use it and don't want it - problems started with opening Outlook with the message 365 trial has expired and editing is unavailable and the same with Word, Excel and Publisher etc. so called the IT guy back and he said the OEM program I purchased is installing 365 even though it says it's installing 2013 - he couldn't help and left. So before I contacted the people I purchased 213 from I looked everywhere I could to ensure I couldn't see any 365 which I couldn't but then remembered through Explorer I could do a "search" which I did and found references to 365 and 2013 - I reinstalled 2013 everything went fine until I went to open word after installation to activate with the key and received a pop up saying I must remove 365 before the full version of 2013 can be intalled.
Do you think 365 has been uninstalled correctly (?) and why do I have reference to Microsoft Office 2016 - didn't think I had that??
All I want to do is put on MS Office Professional Plus 2013 - can anyone help please.
But I'd try REVO UNINSTALLER and see if it can remove Office 365. I take it you googled "How do I remove Office 365" and that didn't work for you.
In reply to: No guarantees.
Thank you, I'll try REVO Uninstaller and no I didn't google "How to remove Office 365" - the IT guy I hired uninstalled 365 (or so I thought) and to be truthful, if it were me I would have gone straight to Programs & Features and uninstalled it from there. I also purchased from Corel (previously Ulead) PhotoImpact X3 as I understand that program and find it easy for me to use - I downloaded the trial first to make sure it would work in Windows 10 which it did - I then purchased the full program but had to uninstall and reinstall from a link Corel sent me - but I'm also having problems with uninstalling that program - it will go through the motions and seems as if everything is uninstalling correctly but when finished it's still there!! I really do have Gremlins in my computer. I'm so very lost at the moment but will try REVO thank you for you help. It just seems that Windows 10 won't let me "uninstall"!!!
PhotoImpact 13 (or X3) was released in 2008 well before W10 so there there may be dragons.
Hopefully REVO will remove what you need gone.
I was worried about PhotoImpact X3 also but it seems to be running fine and the problems I'm having were there prior to me installing it. I've downloaded REVO uninstaller and will read the "how to" to make sure of what I'm doing will be correct. Also, I right clicked on the start button but have not got any Command Prompt (Admin) or any search line where I can type a Command - in my Windows 7 there was a search line but in this silly silly silly (!!!!!) looking Windows 10 there isn't. Will let you know what happens - I have a headache so will sit down and try not to think too much till it goes. I do appreciate your input - thank you.

The review of earthquake resistant building structures is very useful for residents who live in earthquake areas. They need technical access to earthquake resistant building structures. So they can adjust the resources available around them with earthquake resistant building structures.
In order to become a building that is resistant to earthquake then you need to pay attention to the structure of the building.As in the review, this structure will discuss Footings, columns/ post, roofs, and walls.
Earthquake resistant building structures – Footing.
The Footing is a lower structure that holds the structure above and forwards the load to the ground so that the Footing satisfies the following.
You must choose a solid ground to place the Foundation, which is laying the foundation on a hard ground. Footing lies deeper than 45 cm below ground level. The whole Footing must lie on a strong ground.
You must connect the Footing with the footing belt (sloof). This gives on the local footing (pedestal) and the continuous footing.
Sloof / the footing beam (sloof) should be lumped on the Footing with a 1.5 m with 12 mm diameter iron reinforcement.
You should not lay the Footing too close to the cliff wall to avoid landslides.
To prevent cliff slopes, you should provide a ground holder with a rock-stone pair or from a bamboo or wooden plaster.
Earthquake resistant building structures – Column / Column.
columns or poles to help the wall in holding the load above it while making the wall into a ductile wall. The things to note in the column are as follows.
Buildings should use columns as load-bearing elements, eg using reinforced concrete columns.
The column should be laid on the Footing beam (sloof) or the bond is passed to the Footing.
You must tie at the top end of the bony column or each column. You need to put it together with a beam around / ring balk.
Building frames (Sloof, beams, and columns) should have a strong and sturdy relationship.
The column should be equipped with a stiffening beam (ring balk, latei beam) to withstand the lateral force of the earthquake.
Earthquake resistant building structures – Building Beams.
The beams on simple house building consist of ring balk (beam around) and lintel beam. Latex beam/lintel has a function as a horizontal reinforcement and is generally located above the frame. Crosslinks can be mounted when possible.
Overview Architecture of Earthquake Resistant Buildings.
This architecture of earthquake resistant buildings review is very useful for residents who live in earthquake areas. They need access to architecture of earthquake resistant buildings. So they can customize the available resources with architecture of earthquake resistant buildings.
Our previous writings have examined the damage to buildings caused by earthquakes. We have also studied the concept of the simple earthquake-resistant building. This is important for people living in earthquake-prone areas.
Simple earthquake-resistant residential buildings in an architectural review include three things: the discussion of design, roof and wall building openings.
Architecture of Earthquake Resistant Buildings – Design.
Building design should have a symmetrical shape because this form can eliminate the effect of torsion. Simple symmetrical design forms, among others, squares and rectangles.
But we can choose a symmetrical design that is not simple for our home. The shape of the circle and the many facets is including the design of a symmetrical shape that is not simple.
Buildings that have an asymmetrical design should be separated into sections that have a symmetrical shape.
You must separate the L-shaped building into two square and rectangular buildings. You should also separate the T-shaped building into 2 or 3 square-shaped symmetric designs and rectangles.
To avoid twisting effects on buildings, you must separate the asymmetric shape into a symmetrical shape.
Design that is too long will reduce the strength (performance) of buildings if there is a decrease in buildings and differences in movement behavior. This is due to the effects of non-structural reality and the reality of loading. Therefore, you should separate buildings according to the conditions of land and building uniformity.
For example the building is too long then you have to separate into 2 or three sections of the square shaped building.
Architecture of Earthquake Resistant Buildings – Roof Building.
Basically, roof forms that are too big and too heavy can endanger the security of the structure as it can lead to larger earthquake loads. Therefore, roof buildings should use lightweight roofing materials such as zinc, asbestos or aluminum. You should tie the asbestos or zinc roofing material on gording with nails, iron plates or bolts.
For areas one and two, when using a roof tile should be tied to the batten. While on the tile that has a hole can be tied to a nail. The tile that does not have a hole should be tied every 4-lane roof with wire fastener.
Overstek usage that is too long can cause the center of the building to shift from the center of the building. Long oversteks are also vulnerable (more risky) to earthquake-shaking vertical directions.

Buildings Damage caused by Earthquakes.
Buildings damage caused by earthquakes can be severe or mild. Buildings damage caused by earthquakes depends on the condition of the building and the strength of the earthquake. There are several points of Buildings damage caused by earthquakes are more severe than other buildings.
Strong earthquakes can cause damaged facilities and infrastructure. Some scientific studies concluded that the damage to buildings by the earthquake occurred in many residential buildings inhabited by people with middle to lower income. The damage encountered can be either one or a combination of damage to the roof, walls, and foundations.
Sharp angle roof cover will be sliding due to unbound tiles with battens.
The earthquake will cause the roof covering scattered. This is because some of the battens and rugs have been weathered.
The roof frame that is not tied to the wall (not drained at the ends of the pedestal) causes the roof of the roof is less stable. Earthquakes will move the roof easily.
Ceiling/ceiling collapsed due to the bonding hanger is weak and heavy ceiling load. Cockets and practical columns that do not have a strong bond because there is no armature-armature that unites it. In addition, the practical column bonds with the ring balk are inadequate so that the structural elements do not work and there is damage to the building at the time of the building in the quake shock.
Buildings are not given lintel blocks that serve as horizontal binders to withstand earthquakes.
Tempus of mountains (ampigs) that are not given the strengthening of the top of the wall and the quality of building materials that do not meet the requirements. Such a wall would easily collapse during an earthquake.
Unconfined vertical reinforcement mounts will cause damage to the middle during an earthquake.
Buildings that do not use fastening frames (practical columns and ring balks) of reinforced concrete make the building very fragile. Earthquakes will knock down buildings like this all of a sudden.
Support placement is not strong enough to withstand the frame load of the building-caused horses not using the load-bearing element of reinforced concrete (practical columns and ring balks) at the bottom of the frame of the roof’s horses so that the building is damaged in the event of an earthquake.
Building walls only have half height only with wooden poles as a buffer roof. A large roof load will weigh on a weak wooden pole so that during an earthquake, the building column is unable to withstand the horizontal load caused by earthquakes. This resulted in the building collapsing.

It doesn't have to be a total escapade to find the right bindings; they're right here!
Ultimate control and comfort from the binding that owns all-out performance.
The binding of choice for riders like Hannah Teter and Kimmy Fasani, the Escapade has secured its spot as snowboarding’s most technically advanced women’s binding.
PodBED Cushioning - The NEW PodBED outsole on the women's Felix boot was designed in tandem with the Escapade EST's PodBED cushioning, but enhances comfort with any binding, Targeted stiffness and dual density EVA foam balances response with damping, a gel heel absorbs impact, and a rubber toe/heel ensures a lightweight grip.
Kickback Hammock - Strap technology has evolved at warp speed and Burton's newest advance equals more power with less material. The secret is stitch-less 3D modeling that weaves a soft and ultra-light hammock with a stiff spine to crank up response in Burton's most comfortable strap to date.
Lightweight Gettagrip Capstrap™ - Super lightweight EVA with a 3D curved, triple axis spine, ultra-minimzed Captstrap™ construction with true wrap toe window and grip fit.
Double Take Buckles - Helical teeth and a complete rethink of the entire package results in "Insta-Click" immediate engagement, faster uptake, and fewer cranks to tightness. The result: vastly improved strength, speed, and ease-of-use.
Highback Zero Lean Kickback Hi-Back with MicroFLAD™ - This two-piece, heel-hugging hi-back is literally suspension on a snowboard. Dynamic interaction between an internal spring and rubberized hammock results in increased response and reduced vibration while your heel is cradled in complete suspension.

“Hadestown” arrives on Broadway later this spring with plenty of fans in its back pocket, thanks to the musical’s 2016 Off Broadway run and its popular cast recording. But even theatergoers who saw that premiere production can expect surprises — a lot of them.
On the latest episode of Stagecraft, Variety’s theater podcast, “Hadestown” songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and director Rachel Chavkin reveal the work they’ve done on the show since New Yorkers saw it three years ago. One of the most significant changes: the addition of a full ensemble of singer-dancers, who represent the workers living in the mythical factory town that provides the setting for the musical’s take on the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice.
On the new episode of Stagecraft, Mitchell and Chavkin also talked divine inspiration, spontaneous weeping and why drama is like eating a sandwich.

Mojácar´s Carnival 2019 has already kicked off, with the pupils from Bartolomé Flores School taking part in a fun parade along the town´s streets, from their classroom to the Plaza del Fronton.
Joined by some famous children’s TV figures, who handed out sweets and games, each class this year was dressed in a typical costume of a country of their own choice, with their teachers joining in the fun in their specially designed outfits. Highlighting the cultural diversity of the School, which has students from 26 different nationalities, the outfits included; Statues of Liberty, Mariachis, Musketeers, Cowboys and Arabs in a universal display of cultures.
This first day of the Carnival dedicated to the children will carry on with a costume competition on Friday, March 1st, at 6 pm at the Centro de Usos Múltiples, with entertainment, games and a disco to guarantee plenty of music to dance to. As usual, there will be a stream of presents, prizes and surprises in store for this future generation that is the pool of new followers that will ensure Mojácar Carnival’s success continues for everyone, whatever their age.
As small as the children are at the “Garabatos” nursery, they also held their very own Carnival which included some “little superheroes”, princesses and a team of visiting TV characters.
On Saturday night, it´s time for the older ones to take over, with a Carnival dance at 11.00 pm at the Centro de Usos Múltiples, when all the groups in their innovative costumes start to arrive, followed later by the prize giving.
Finally, on Sunday, the action takes to the street once again, with the Grand Carnival Parade that sets off at 5.00 pm. from the Río Aguas roundabout. As well as all the local groups taking part in the contest, there will be many invited guest groups from Palomares, Villaricos, Vera and Garrucha.
Cheered on by the people of the town as well as visitors, the parade will go along the Paseo Marítimo to the Parque Comercial where there will be a choreography contest to bring the party to a close for another year.

Raised gardens are great for creating a clean garden with fresh nutrient-rich soil. If you live in an area with sub-par soil or have back issues that make getting on the ground difficult raised beds are a great option for you to have a garden you can enjoy despite difficulties. In Florida raised bed gardening was a must to grow with the dry sandy soil. Here are some simple tips for building and maintaining a raised bed garden.
Gardening is a joy and raised beds are a great way to dress up your garden if you find yourself in need of hiding vegetables in your front yard. Build a raised bed in areas you need a nicer appearance for your garden using a fresh clean looking wood stained to compliment your home.
Line your raised garden bed to keep soil in and contaminants from the ground under from leaching into your fresh clean soil.
Build the best garden soil possible. Buy organic mushroom compost in bulk to fill your raised bed garden for less.
Opt for a taller bed if you have back, knee, or other physical limitations to allow you the freedom to the garden despite your challenges.
One drawback to raised beds is they have tendacy to dry out fast. Lining the bottom and edges with plastic can help keep the moisture in. Top with plenty of mulch and if you can it does not hurt to run irrigation to them if it is in your budget.
Don’t be afraid to raised garden bed kits to make building amazing reaised garden beds easy.
Simple tips to maintain your raised garden bed.
Treat and exposed wood as often as you do your deck to help maintain the wood and prevent rotting. Your raised beds if treated kindly will last years.
Keep your raised garden beds mulched to help retain moisture and keep plenty or organic matter turned into the soil every season. Pay extra attention to your raised bed garden in the summer to help your garden survive the summer heat.
Rotate what grows in your beds each season and add plenty of compost to the soil to keep it fresh and nourished through the years.
Save money on your garden with simple tips that make every type of gardening easier.

Borgne path has never been straight. Founded in 1998, when it debuted with a demo, the project went off the radar for almost a decade, coming back at full throttle in 2007 with two albums released almost simultaneously. Another ten years after, we are proud to add the Swiss band, which recently became a two-piece, to our roster.
“8 is not only a number but a symbol, symbol of infinity, infinity you close inside brackets.
8 is not only a number but a word, word of hatred to break all the brackets.
After twenty years of chaos,  is the 8th Borgne full-length album.
Featuring 8 tracks of non-traditional black metal, written in French and English. Chaos, darkness, feelings, loneliness, anger, insanity, suffering and death... 8 words to describe it.
The most electric and complicated, fragile and deep, industrial and cold, strange and tormented album Borgne ever did. Lovers gonna 8.” And Bornyhake is right:  is an evil, evocative opus of industrial black metal that will freeze your every feeling.

It wasn’t until the early sixties that Adolf Eichmann (one of the key architects of the Holocaust, and for whom the phrase “the banality of evil” was coined) was finally brought to trial. His primary defense was commonly used by others during the earlier Nuremberg trials: he was “just following orders.” To answer whether such a defense could even conceivably excuse an individual who participated in such atrocities, psychologist Stanley Milgram conducted a series of psychological studies on obedience to authority. He found that roughly two-thirds of people were willing to administer fatal shocks upon the command of an authority figure.
In the early seventies, Philip Zimbardo (another psychologist) conducted the famous Stanford Prison Experiment. Basically, he recruited a bunch of students, split them into groups of prisoners and guards, and then placed them into an immersive prison simulation. Within days, ‘prisoners’ were experiencing mental breakdowns and ‘guards’ were engaging in abuse. The experiment, scheduled to last two weeks, was aborted after six days.
Give people meaning roles such as ‘prisoner’ or ‘guard’.
Enforce adherence of ‘the rules’ – arbitrary or changing, they must be followed!
Euphemize (it’s not murder a civilian, it’s “drone that guy”).
Promote the diffusion of responsibility (“I just work here…”).
Start small (the first shock in Milgram’s experiment was only 15 volts).
Take small incremental steps (Think of the boiling frog).
Have the authority start out ‘just’, and only gradually change to ‘unjust’.
Make it hard to exit, allow the voicing of dissent, and insist on compliance.
Offer the “big lie” or ideologically to justify the use of any means.
Take a second and try to see these at work around you. Most organizations set many of these conditions. It’s really in #8 that the slide towards ‘evil’ happens. Without them, we’re left with basically every bureaucracy on the face of the planet. But if we view #8 more as a decoupling from principle than a slide towards the unjust, we can see even it at work in many bureaucracies. In this way, it is really just an instance of the organization’s leadership falling victim to #3. Absent some external correction mechanism, this situation leads to a sort of moral domain sheer (MDS) – the organization develops its own moral world, replete with an internal logic but disconnected from the surrounding world.
Here’s a quick example of what I mean. How is it that a soldier can go to war, kill people, and remain morally intact? Well, the soldier is no longer in the usual moral world when they go to war. They have left for a moral domain where killing is acceptable, as long as the rules were followed. But this is the same process at work, whether the result is weighed good or bad.
Steve Biko, founder of the Black Consciousness Movement under apartheid rule, taught that all whites in South Africa shared in the responsibility for apartheid – not because they were white, per se, but because they participated in benefiting from the system. They were effectively members of an organization that suffered from MDS, and he would not let them hide behind diffused responsibility (#5). Nor did the west allow Eichmann or the many other Nazis shirk their responsibilities.
When our governments (powerful organizations) take action, we the citizens (participants, not subjects) are responsible for it. Not solely responsible, but each of us owns a piece of it. Our governments act in our name. We, the people.
If MDS is practically a feature of organizations and can potentially ‘corrupt’ any of us, but we still retain responsibility for the group and moral culpability for ourselves, what can we do? What if the extent of our political voice is to choose the lesser of two evils?
Remember last week’s lesson: there is no box. If a system produces only unsatisfactory outcomes, maybe it’s time to realize that the system is the problem.
I, for one, wouldn’t want to put Milgram to the test on that opening quote. Maybe it’s time to choose a different system. One that doesn’t produce concentration camps.

Christian Wüthrich – Associate Professor, University of Geneva. Christian’s philosophical interests most prominently include foundational issues in physics, particularly in classical general relativity and quantum gravity. Of course, he also gets excited about the implications of philosophy of physics for general philosophy of science and metaphysics. More specifically, he enjoys thinking about issues such as space and time, persistence, laws of nature, determinism, and causation.
Karen Crowther is a postdoc working on the Swiss NSF-funded project “New Avenues Beyond Space and Time”, together with Niels Linnemann and Christian Wüthrich (PI). Before this, she was a postdoc at the University of Pittsburgh, and before that she received her PhD from the University of Sydney. Karen’s research has focused on inter-theory relations in physics—in particular, the nature of the relationships between quantum gravity and general relativity. Currently, Karen is interested in exploring the role of scientific principles in theory-change, and the principles of quantum gravity.
Vincent Lam is a scientific collaborator at the University of Geneva and a honorary research fellow at the University of Queensland. His research interests include the philosophy and foundations of physics, the epistemology and metaphysics of science.
Bap tiste Le Bihan is a metaphysician and philosopher of science working at the University of Geneva as a scientific collaborator. After a postdoctoral time in a joint project between the University of lllinois at Chicago and the University of Geneva (2016-2018) entitled ‘Space and Time After Quantum Gravity’, he joined in 2018 a project of the Swiss National Science Foundation entitled “To and Fro: Scientific Metaphysics at the Physics’ Frontiers”. At the end of this project, he will start an Ambizione fellowship that he has been awarded by the Swiss National Science Foundation to work on the metaphysics of quantum gravity (2019-2023). His main researches are on the ontology of the actual world (space, time, material objects, etc.), with a focus on the physics of quantum gravity. He also occasionally branch out in the philosophy of mind and comparative philosophy.

Niels Linnemann is a PhD student working on the Swiss NSF-funded project “New Avenues Beyond Space and Time”, together with Karen Crowther and Christian Wuthrich (PI). Before his thesis project on“Emergent Gravity and Its implications For a Theory of Quantum Gravity”, he studied Maths, Physics and Philosophy in Münster, Lund, Oxford and Cambridge. His major interests currently lie in philosophy of spacetime, philosophy and foundations of quantum gravity and their synthesis, i.e. the philosophy of quantum gravity.
Rasmus Jaksland is a PhD fellow in philosophy at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. He works on a project titled “The Prospects of Naturalized Metaphysics” where he investigate the role of physics in metaphysics, and attempt to assess to what degree metaphysics should be informed by and founded in physics. He is also engaged in research on foundational issues in high energy physics, particularly on the nature of spacetime in the light of the AdS/CFT correspondence and on the metaphysical implications holographic relation between entanglement and spacetime.
Radin Dardashti (former doctoral fellow of the Geneva Symmetry group) is an assistant professor at the Leibniz University Hannover. Radin studied physics in Aachen and Queen Mary University of London and philosophy of science at the London School of Economics. He obtained his Ph.D. from the Ludwig-Maximillians Universität München with a dissertation on novel scientific methodologies in modern fundamental physics. He works mainly in philosophy of science (scientific methodology, theory development and assessment) and philosophy of physics (role of symmetries, no-go theorems, analogue gravity).

A crèche is a manger scene, a nativity, which many people display at Christmas. What’s in your crèche’s manger this Christmas? Does your nativity scene remind you and those who visit your home that God sent a Savior to redeem us from our sins? Jesus did enter this world as a baby—just like the infant depicted in most manger scenes. However, the crèche does not display our Savior’s astounding résumé. Before the Spirit of God conceived His humanity within Mary’s womb, Jesus qualified uniquely to be our Lord and our Redeemer. As the Son of God He had already acted as the Logos (the Word) and the Light of the world. And, at His birth He came to be the Lamb of God—not a pet lamb with which children might play, but a lamb slain as a sacrifice. The first chapter of the Gospel of John reveals these three roles that the Son of God filled in order to fulfill Bible prophecies.
Before the humanity of Jesus was conceived in the womb of Mary, the Son of God had created all things. The Creator Himself came to the earth that He created in order to live among the humanity He had created. The Logos became flesh. Indeed, the baby in the Bethlehem manger is none other than the Lord of the universe, the all-powerful Creator—the Logos. As we celebrate Christmas, we should seek to understand that amazing fact. Jesus was more than a human infant at the time of His birth. “In the beginning” He had created all things. He had already exercised the greatest of powers by creating the universe and all life. Everyone should worship the baby, because He is their Creator. The crèche cannot depict this very important truth.
In the preceding verse, Isaiah described Israel’s Galilee region as a place of spiritual darkness (Isaiah 9:1). Yet, God chose to send His Son (“the Light of the world,” John 8:12) into such a place to live as a child, grow to manhood, and preach the gospel to sinners. We do not tend to seek the darkest areas for spiritual service, but our Savior went to the darkest of regions among His people—a place filled with idolatry. By choosing to settle in Capernaum, Jesus continued to fulfill Isaiah’s prophecy (see Matthew 4:12–17). He came to earth to be the Light.
Before the Logos created the sun (Genesis 1:14–18), He Himself became earth’s first light (Genesis 1:3). He was the Light; He is the Light (John 8:12); and, He will be the Light (Revelation 21:23). As the true Light, He gives life both physically and spiritually. As the true Light, He grants life everlasting to those who “become children of God, even to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12).
How do you show the Light of the world in that crèche? A light bulb would be a poor substitute, wouldn’t it?
Abraham told his son Isaac that “God will provide for Himself the lamb” of sacrifice as a substitute for Isaac (Genesis 22:8). God later instructed the Israelites to sacrifice a lamb at Passover (Exodus 12:21–27; see also Matthew 26:3 and 1 Corinthians 5:7). Later still, the prophet Isaiah described the Messiah as “a lamb that is led to slaughter” (Isaiah 53:7). These are but a few of the biblical texts that foreshadow and predict that Jesus would fulfill the prophecies regarding God’s sacrificial Lamb.
Therefore, John the Baptist’s declaration (John 1:29) does not surprise any student of the Scriptures. However, the Scriptures amaze even long-time believers with the frequency and the significance of the title “Lamb of God.” Perhaps you noted that Revelation 21:23 attributes the light of God in the New Jerusalem to “the Lamb.” The title “Lamb” for Jesus occurs thirty times in the Book of Revelation—over three times as often as any other title for Jesus—a testimony to the significance of this name.
Are there any shepherds in your crèche? When the angel appeared to the shepherds, they were caring for the Passover flocks in the Judean hills near Bethlehem. The angel told them that the baby in the manger would be their Savior (Luke 2:11). They left their flocks and approached the manger (Luke 2:15–16). How fitting that the shepherds of the Passover flocks should be the first to come see for themselves and to spread the good news of Messiah’s birth (Luke 2:17–20). The baby in the manger was “the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world”!
Look again at your crèche. Does it include a lamb? Perhaps you should take the figure of the baby out of the manger and place that lamb in the manger. It will generate questions from your children, other family members, and guests. Your answer can include the fact that Jesus, the Logos of God and the Light of mankind, came to be God’s sacrificial Lamb. This Christmas, in the spirit of John 1, worship the Logos, draw near to the Light, and praise the Lamb.
