The Expositor's Bible
the; BOOK OF EXODUS BY THE RIGHT REV. 3- A. CHADWICK, D.D., Bishop of Derry AUTHOR OF "THE GOSPEL OF ST. MARK," ETC NEW YORK C. ARMSTRONG AND SON 3 and 5 West Eighteenth Street London: Hodder and Stoughton 1903 PREFACE. MUCH is now denied or doubted, within the Church itself, concerning the Book of Exodus, which was formerly accepted with confidence by all Christians. But one thing can neither be doubted nor denied. Jesus Christ did certainly treat this book, taking it as He found it, as possessed of spiritual authority, a sacred scripture. He taught His disciples to regard it thus, and they did so. Therefore, however widely His followers may differ about its date and origin, they must admit the right of a Christian teacher to treat this book, taking it as he finds it, as a sacred scripture and invested with spiritual authority. It is the legitimate subject of exposition in the Church. Such work this volume strives, howler imper- fectly, to perform. Its object is to edify in the first place, and also, but in the second place, to inform. Nor has the author consciously shrunk from saying what seemed to him proper to be said because the utterance would be unwelcome, either to the latest critical theory, or to the last sensational gospel of an hour. But sines controversv has not been sought, b PREFACE. although exposition has not been suppressed when it carried weapons, by far the greater part of the volume appeals to all who accept their Bible as, in any true sense, a gift from God. -

The Pennsylvania State University Schreyer Honors College
THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF JOURNALISM Extra Innings: Examining the Pace of Play Problem with America’s Pastime DAVID M. BAUER JR. SPRING 2021 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Journalism with honors in Journalism Reviewed and approved* by the following: John Affleck Knight Chair in Sports Journalism and Society Thesis Supervisor Russell Frank Associate Professor, Department of Journalism Honors Adviser * Electronic approvals are on file. i ABSTRACT This thesis examines the slowdown and changes in action regarding pace of play that has occurred in Major League Baseball over the past 100 years. It demonstrates the correlation between the problematic decline in baseball viewership and the pace of play slowdown and examines hypotheses for why this slowdown may be occurring, including advances in mid-game advertising and commercialization, a shift in focus toward offense, the advent of sabermetrics and other advanced stat-keeping implemented by teams to better their odds of victory, and changes in player behavior in the time between pitches. Ultimately, this thesis concludes that behavioral changes, brought on by both advanced analytics and monetary incentive, are the primary explanation for the lengthening of the average baseball game over time and the shift toward inaction-based plays. It also identifies possible solutions that Major League Baseball could implement to help solve its pace of play problem, including the implementation of a pitch clock, encouraging action-based plays like stolen bases, and, ultimately, amending the state of distrust between the league and the Players Association. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES ................................................................................................... -

Put Yourself in His Place by Charles Reade</H1>
Put Yourself in His Place by Charles Reade Put Yourself in His Place by Charles Reade PUT YOURSELF IN HIS PLACE by Charles Reade I will frame a work of fiction upon notorious fact, so that anybody shall think he can do the same; shall labor and toil attempting the same, and fail--such is the power of sequence and connection in writing."--HORACE: Art of Poetry. CHAPTER I. Hillsborough and its outlying suburbs make bricks by the million, spin and weave both wool and cotton, forge in steel from the finest needle up to a ship's armor, and so add considerably to the kingdom's wealth. page 1 / 1.039 But industry so vast, working by steam on a limited space, has been fatal to beauty: Hillsborough, though built on one of the loveliest sites in England, is perhaps the most hideous town in creation. All ups and down and back slums. Not one of its wriggling, broken- backed streets has handsome shops in an unbroken row. Houses seem to have battled in the air, and stuck wherever they tumbled down dead out of the melee. But worst of all, the city is pockmarked with public-houses, and bristles with high round chimneys. These are not confined to a locality, but stuck all over the place like cloves in an orange. They defy the law, and belch forth massy volumes of black smoke, that hang like acres of crape over the place, and veil the sun and the blue sky even in the brightest day. But in a fog--why, the air of Hillsborough looks a thing to plow, if you want a dirty job. -
