What a blessedness, what a peace is mine, Leaning on the everlasting arms. REFRAIN Leaning, leaning, Safe and secure from all alarms; Leaning, leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms. O how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way, Leaning on the everlasting arms. O how bright the path grows from day to day, Leaning on the everlasting arms. REFRAIN What have I to dread, what have I to fear, Leaning on the everlasting arms? I have blessed peace with my Lord so near, Leaning on the everlasting arms. REFRAIN INVOCATION P: In the name of the Father and of the † Son and the Holy Spirit. C: Amen. CONFESSION All: Father in heaven, we admit that we have not lived our lives “by the book.” You tell us to be perfect and we have failed. Our thoughts, words, and deeds have not been what You would have us do. We are imperfect. We confess this to You, in the certain hope that You will forgive us. (we take a moment for personal confessing) ABSOLUTION P: In His book, our God tells us that our sins have been covered. Through the sacrifice of His son on the 4 cross, and resurrection from the grave, forgiveness is won for us. God’s word is a forgiving word, therefore, it is my privilege to announce that our sins are forgiven in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. SALUTATION P: The Lord be with you. C: And also with you. PRAYER OF THE DAY All: (We pray)Grant Lord, that the course of this world may be so governed by Your direction that Your Church may rejoice in serving You in godly peace and quietness: through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen. FIRST READING Reader: Acts 1:12-26 12 Then the apostles returned to Jerusalem from the hill called the Mount of Olives, a Sabbath day’s walk from the city. 13 When they arrived, they went upstairs to the room where they were staying. Those present were Peter, John, James and Andrew; Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew; James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James. 14 They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers. 15 In those days Peter stood up among the believers (a group numbering about a hundred and twenty) 16 and said, “Brothers and sisters, the Scripture had to be fulfilled in which the Holy Spirit spoke long ago through David concerning Judas, who served as guide for those who arrested Jesus. 17 He was one of our number and shared in our ministry.” 18 (With the payment he received for his wickedness, Judas bought a field; there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out. 19 Everyone in Jerusalem heard 5 about this, so they called that field in their language Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.) 20 “For,” said Peter, “it is written in the Book of Psalms: “‘May his place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in it,’ and, “‘May another take his place of leadership.’ 21 Therefore it is necessary to choose one of the men who have been with us the whole time the Lord Jesus was living among us, 22 beginning from John’s baptism to the time when Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness with us of his resurrection.” 23 So they nominated two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias. 24 Then they prayed, “Lord, you know everyone’s heart. Show us which of these two you have chosen 25 to take over this apostolic ministry, which Judas left to go where he belongs.” 26 Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles. Reader: This is the word of the Lord. C: Thanks be to God. SECOND READING Reader: Revelation 22: 1-6 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. 3 No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him. 4 They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. 5 There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever. 6 The angel said to me, “These words are trustworthy and true. The Lord, the God who inspires the prophets, sent his angel to show his servants the things that must soon take place.” Reader: This is the word of the Lord. C: Thanks be to God. 6 THE HOLY GOSPEL P: The Holy Gospel according to St. John, the 17th chapter starting verse 20. C: Glory to You, O Lord. P: 20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you.

  • Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas
    5 Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas has been part of the international avant-garde since the nineteen-seventies and has been named the Pritzker Rem Koolhaas Architecture Prize for the year 2000. This book, which builds on six canonical projects, traces the discursive practice analyse behind the design methods used by Koolhaas and his office + OMA. It uncovers recurring key themes—such as wall, void, tur montage, trajectory, infrastructure, and shape—that have tek structured this design discourse over the span of Koolhaas’s Essays on the History of Ideas oeuvre. The book moves beyond the six core pieces, as well: It explores how these identified thematic design principles archi manifest in other works by Koolhaas as both practical re- Ingrid Böck applications and further elaborations. In addition to Koolhaas’s individual genius, these textual and material layers are accounted for shaping the very context of his work’s relevance. By comparing the design principles with relevant concepts from the architectural Zeitgeist in which OMA has operated, the study moves beyond its specific subject—Rem Koolhaas—and provides novel insight into the broader history of architectural ideas. Ingrid Böck is a researcher at the Institute of Architectural Theory, Art History and Cultural Studies at the Graz Ingrid Böck University of Technology, Austria. “Despite the prominence and notoriety of Rem Koolhaas … there is not a single piece of scholarly writing coming close to the … length, to the intensity, or to the methodological rigor found in the manuscript

  • Moorish Literature (1901)
    MOORISH LITERATURE (1901) COMPRISING ROMANTIC BALLADS, TALES OF THE BERBERS, STORIES OF THE KABYLES, FOLK- LORE, AND NATIONAL TRADITIONS Translated by Rene Bassett, Ph.D. SPECIAL INTRODUCTION. The region which extends from the frontiers of Egypt to the Atlantic Ocean, and from the Mediterranean to the Niger, was in ancient times inhabited by a people to whom we give the general name of Berbers, but whom the ancients, particularly those of the Eastern portion, knew under the name of Moors. “They were called Maurisi by the Greeks,” said Strabo, “in the first century A.D., and Mauri by the Romans. They are of Lybian origin, and form a powerful and rich nation.”[1] This name of Moors is applied not only to the descendants of the ancient Lybians and Numidians, who live in the nomad state or in settled abodes, but also to the descendants of the Arabs who, in the eighth century A.D., brought with them Islamism, imposed by the sabre of Ogbah and his successors. Even further was it carried, into Spain, when Berbers and Arabs, reunited under the standard of Moussa and Tarik, added this country to the empire of the Khalifa. In the fifteenth century the Portuguese, in their turn, took the name to the Orient, and gave the name of Moors to the Mussulmans whom they found on the Oriental coast of Africa and in India. [1] Geographica, t. xviii, ch. 3, Section ii. The appellation particularizes, as one may see, three peoples entirely different in origin--the Berbers, the Arabs of the west, and the Spanish Mussulmans, widely divided, indeed, by political struggles, but united since the seventh and eighth centuries in their religious law.

  • India Tour of 2016 27Th January to 18Th February 2016
    “See you at the Taj!” The Smith Private India Tour of 2016 27th January to 18th February 2016 Tiger by Wayne Jones Trip report compiled by tour leader Wayne Jones RBT Smith Private India 2016 Trip Report 2 Tour Summary Where to begin? For some the journey together started (or almost didn’t!) in the snowed-under eastern US. I was reunited with some familiar faces in the desert hub of Dubai airport, a stark contrast to my dazed travellers’ blizzard-ridden hometowns. While in a meteorological vein, our travelling party snowballed further with the addition of the incomparable Bablu in New Delhi. And finally our set was complete when our last two travelling companions joined us after Varanasi. Officially, though, the Smith Private India Tour began at New Delhi airport where we saw our first local bird – a Jungle Myna. The capital’s air pollution ranks as the worst in the world and we coughed our way to our hotel and back the next morning to catch our flight to India’s holiest city, Varanasi. Who could’ve imagined the amazing sights and sounds that awaited us?! We spent the afternoon in Sarnath where we marvelled at the incredibly preserved and polished sandstone Lion Capital of Ashoka, India’s national emblem. The nearby Hindu monk performing agni puja by Wayne Jones excavation site and Dhamek Stupa, an important Bhuddist monument, provided our first looks at: Rose- ringed Parakeet; Spotted Dove; Peregrine Falcon; a splendid pair of Asian Koels; Indian Grey Hornbill; Jungle Babbler, and Red-whiskered Bulbul. That evening we loaded up, two-apiece, on cycle rickshaws and took a thrilling ride through the synergistic chaos that is Indian traffic.

  • The Call of the Cumberlands
    The Call Of The Cumberlands By Charles Neville Buck THE CALL OF THE CUMBERLANDS CHAPTER I Close to the serried backbone of the Cumberland ridge through a sky of mountain clarity, the sun seemed hesitating before its descent to the horizon. The sugarloaf cone that towered above a creek called Misery was pointed and edged with emerald tracery where the loftiest timber thrust up its crest plumes into the sun. On the hillsides it would be light for more than an hour yet, but below, where the waters tossed themselves along in a chorus of tiny cascades, the light was already thickening into a cathedral gloom. Down there the "furriner" would have seen only the rough course of the creek between mossvelveted and shaded bowlders of titanic proportions. The native would have recognized the country road in these tortuous twistings. Now there were no travelers, foreign or native, and no sounds from living throats except at intervals the clear "Bob White" of a nesting partridge, and the silver confidence of the red cardinal flitting among the pines. Occasionally, too, a stray whisper of breeze stole along the creekbed and rustled the beeches, or stirred in the broad, fanlike leaves of the "cucumber trees." A great block of sandstone, to whose summit a man standing in his saddle could scarcely reach his fingertips, towered above the stream, with a gnarled scrub oak clinging tenaciously to its apex. Loftily on both sides climbed the mountains cloaked in laurel and timber. Suddenly the leafage was thrust aside from above by a cautious hand, and a shy, halfwild girl appeared in the opening.

The church, baptistery, basilicas, public buildings, streets, monasteries, houses, and workshops in this early Christian holy city were built over the tomb of the martyr Menas of Alexandria, who died in AD 296. Menas, who was an officer in Diocletian's army, refused to kill any Christians after they had been defeated by his army, and declared his Christianity publicly. Legend has it that after his martyrdom Menas's remains were brought back from Phrygia by camel and buried where the animal refused to walk any more.
