Each table or figure should be placed on a separate page and numbered consecutively beginning with Table 1 and Figure 1. A table or figure should not be included unless it is referenced in the text of the article. In the paper, tables come first followed by figures. Placement in the text should be indicated as follows:
Table or figure number and title should be typed on two separate lines in boldface type using upper/lower case. Example:
Footnotes in tables and figures should be designated by superscript numbers that correspond to notes at the bottom of the table or figure (outside the box or line).
E. Technical Appendices
Technical appendices may be used to include mathematical or highly technical material that supports the main text but is not critical to the reader's interpretation of the text. If only one appendix appears label it APPENDIX (all caps, no number) with the title on the next line in upper/lower case. If multiple appendices appear, label them APPENDIX 1, APPENDIX 2, etc. (all caps) with the title on the next line in upper/lower case. Appendices must be referred to in the text of the article, but are not to be designated for placement (unlike tables and figures -- see above).
For empirical articles authors must systematically document information about the sample(s) utilized, as well as the relationships among variables. With regard to the sample(s), complete information should be provided (concisely in the text or a table) about the sampling procedure (type, selection method), method of contact, sponsorship (if applicable), incentives provided to participants, number in the sampling frame, response rate, industries from which the sample was drawn, company characteristics, geographic scope of the sampling frame, major activities/job responsibilities represented, as well as respondent characteristics including age, gender, length of service, experience level, and any other relevant characteristics. Authors with manuscripts based on research using student samples need to contact the Editor prior to submission to determine if their use of students is acceptable to JMTP. It is expected that means, standard deviations, inter-correlations, and reliability/validity indices will be provided for measures in the study. Generally, all scale items not drawn from previously published literature should appear in a table or in an appendix (depending on how extensive the list).
Manuscripts are reviewed independently by members of the JMTP Editorial Review Board and by ad hoc reviewers chosen by the Editor. Typically, three reviewers assess each manuscript. The evaluations and recommendations of the reviewers guide the Editor in his decision. The reviews are double blind -- neither authors nor reviewers know the identity of the others.
It is the policy of JMTP that manuscripts submitted for review must not have been published or be under consideration for publication elsewhere. Manuscripts that are substantially similar in content to articles already published or accepted for publication in JMTP or elsewhere are ineligible for publication in JMTP. It is the responsibility of the author(s) to abide by these provisions when submitting a manuscript to JMTP for review.
JMTP strives for a review process that is thorough and constructive, so that regardless of the ultimate decision about publication in JMTP the author(s) can benefit from the feedback obtained on their work.
It is possible for a manuscript submitted to JMTP to be desk rejected by the Editor. Although several reasons might precipitate this action, common reasons are: (1) the topic or type of submission does not fit the editorial positioning of JMTP, or (2) the manuscript is not submitted according to the guidelines provided in this document.
It is the responsibility of the author(s) to complete invited manuscript revisions in a
timely manner. The maximum time allowed for resubmission of an invited first
revision is six months from the date of the invitation to revise. The procedure
for submitting revised manuscripts is posted on the JMTP Web site:
www.jmtp-online.org, as are instructions for preparing manuscripts that have
been accepted for publication.


June was not my most successful month for reading. I started a couple of books but they didn’t capture my interest. As I was considering other options, I received an email from the local library informing me a book I had reserved many months ago was available for collection. I couldn’t even remember what the book was, so headed off to solve the mystery. I didn’t complete any books during June and finished this one during the first week of July – Born Survivors by Wendy Holden. On collection, I vaguely remembered seeing it on a list of recommended reading on a blog or social media feed early this year. As I read the cover “Born Survivors – Three young mothers and their extraordinary story of courage, defiance and survival” printed over the unmistakable image of a concentration camp, my mind switched back to an almost forgotten memory.
An old lady reached over the counter to hand me her money as she paid for her purchases, a pre-cooked roast beef dinner with vegetables. As she did so, her sleeve pulled up, revealing something which took my breath away. A series of small numbers tattooed on her inner forearm indicated this lady was a holocaust survivor! I continued to process her sale, saying nothing. I served her often after that and saw her prisoner number several more times but I’ll never forget that moment. This is the only contact I have ever had with a holocaust survivor and yet, when I read about other survivors I always think about this well dressed elderly lady who regularly bought her roast dinner from us because it wasn’t worth making one just for herself. I wish I knew her story, but alas, I never will. But I can know the stories of other survivors and believe it is important to do so.
Born survivors is an incredible, almost unbelievable story of three young expectant mothers who managed to hide their early pregnancies upon arrival at Auschwitz towards the end of the Second World War. Pieced together from diary entries, interviews and photographs from these courageous women and fellow survivors, Holden tells their stories in a way which keeps you reading and wanting to know more. Holden was herself captivated by the story from the moment she read in a newspaper death notice that a woman had given birth in a concentration camp and was survived by that child. From that moment, she pursued the story of first one and eventually three women who shared this story – Priska, Anka and Rachel.
When I first heard about this book, I thought “How is that even possible?” Not surprisingly, each of the three mothers had the same thoughts, believing they were the only one to carry a baby to term, give birth in a concentration camp and have the child survive.
Priska, Anka and Rachel, although in some of the same locations at the same time, never met and were sadly never able to support or assist each other during or following their imprisonment. Many years later, their children, who will be the last survivors of the holocaust death camps, found each other.
I’ve read and watched much about work and death camps during WW2 and the inhuman treatment of so many who were murdered there. The topic has always repulsed me and is never easy reading. However, I believe it is necessary reading.
As Anka said “The more people who know about what happened, the less likely it is to happen again, I hope. This is a story which should teach people that it mustn’t happen again.” Her daughter Eva agrees, stating “It is very important to remember all those millions of people who were killed. And especially those who have never had one single person remember them because all of their families and their communities were destroyed. It is our duty to tell that story and to prevent such atrocities from happening again and again.”
These women, along with many others travelled from Auschwitz to a German slave labour camp and finally, as the war drew to a close, to the Mauthausen death camp, where they miraculously missed out on being gassed by a single day, as the gas had run out.
This book includes much detail of the inexcusable treatment of Priska, Anka, Rachel and their fellow prisoners and is truly hard going at times. The conditions their babies were born into and the state they were all in at Liberation made it amazing they continued to survive. Many others didn’t, dying within days and weeks of Liberation. The fact that they did survive, as did their babies, confirmed right at the beginning by their photo in the end papers, kept me reading. How did they survive? What did they have to do? How did they hide their pregnancies? These questions kept running through my head and meant I finished this book very quickly, eager to find the answers. I knew how it ended, but had to find out how these three women got there. I longed for them to meet, but they never did. Their stories are unimaginable yet they lived to tell the tale.
Despite the horrors endured by Priska, Anka and Rachel, this book leaves the reader with an overwhelming feeling of hope. Beginning and ending with happy times and normal family lives, the message is one of courage and sheer determination to survive. In the midst of horrific experiences, we learn of brief moments of kindness shown to the prisoners by overseers and the amazing story of the people of Horni Briza. (I won’t go into that here, but if you aren’t familiar with their part in helping POWS, it’s worth looking up their story.)
Each of the three women emerged from Mauthausen much changed yet somehow hopeful and determined to provide a happy life for their precious miracle babies. They all succeeded in this mission, living into old age and enjoying grandchildren. After enduring so much and losing so many loved ones, they were able to say,
“I survived. We are here. I brought home a baby. That is the important thing.” Priska.
I give this book a 5 star rating, but due to the subject matter, feel stars are an inappropriate image to include.
It is a difficult yet inspiring read and well worth the effort. The author’s style keeps you eager to learn more about these unbelievably courageous and resilient young women.


"I wanted to get engaged in the critical actions of the community so I quickly joined the Whitewater Grocery Cooperative, the Rotary, League of Women Voters, the Historical Society, and the Greater Whitewater Committee."
This is Owner #592, Dwight Watson, the recent new Chancellor of UWW! We sat down to learn a little about him to find out his thoughts on becoming an Owner.
Tell me a little about yourself: job, hobbies, obsessions, etc.
I am the Chancellor at UW-Whitewater. I moved to this community because of my position. I am enjoying the closeness of the community in which I can easily walk to downtown, my church, and the university. I live across from the public library on Church Street and that too is delightful because reading is one of my main passions along with writing, movie viewing, and traveling.
Why did you become an Owner of the GroCo?
I wanted to get engaged in the critical actions of the community so I quickly joined the Whitewater Grocery Cooperative, the Rotary, League of Women Voters, the Historical Society, and the Greater Whitewater Committee. Need to find time to learn more about the Whitewater Arts Council.
What's your favorite recipe? Why? What is the recipe if you don't mind sharing?
I grew up in the South Carolina so Sunday dinner after church was the biggest meal of the week. What I cook best is this South Carolina cuisine (soul food). My favorite is roast beef (pot roast baked in the oven for 2 hrs. in a Dutch oven) at 350 degrees. Midway add carrots, red potatoes, and a white onion. I serve this with a baked macaroni and cheese and lima (butter) beans.
What's the quirkiest/funniest thing that's ever happened to you in a grocery store?
I spent my years from ages 16 to 21 working at the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company (A & P) and Piggly Wiggly. These jobs got me through high school and put me through college. I have fond memories of stocking shelves, bagging groceries, and being a cashier. On Saturday evenings, I would work with the store office clerk to balance the weekly accounts. My $3.50 an hour went a long way back in the late 70s and early 80s.


The reading options seem endless when it comes to the topic of motivation.
One professional coach who has spent much of her career reading up on the topic consistently comes back to one title in particular, “Man’s Search for Meaning” by Viktor Frankl. The book recounts the author’s time at a concentration camp and reminds us that even in the most adverse of circumstances, life still has meaning even for prisoners of the Holocaust. Read more about “Man’s Search for Meaning”.

When I pre-ordered Amen cu Sanger by Joshuar Gomez, I was not sure what to expect. I was eager to get my hands on it because I know the Aruban community is starved for queer representation, especially in the island’s native language of Papiamento. I had no idea what this representation would look like, however.
On the afternoon the book was released, I got it loaded up on my Kindle, and I started reading right away. What immediately stood out to me, was how poetically it was written. As someone who did not grow up speaking Papiamento, I’m not often exposed to artfully written content in the language. It is refreshing to see words in a language that is considered to be relatively simple, be arranged in such a thoughtful, almost whimsical way. At the same time, my sub-par grasp of the Papiamento language was not a barrier for me to get sucked into the story at all, and get sucked in, I did.
This is a spoiler-free review so I will not be discussing any plot points, but I will describe how I felt while reading.
The protagonist, Alex, is one of those main characters that many of us, LGBTQ+ or otherwise, can recognize ourselves in. Not only is he intelligent, loving, and loyal to a fault, he is also unwavering in his identity. This makes him very relatable, which in turn made me want to know more about his journey. I was happy to root for him.
Amen cu Sanger does a very good job tackling the fundamentally flawed view many Arubans have of gay youth and gay people in general. While this story is told around the experiences of Alex, the author was able to provide multiple examples of injustices against gay people, the importance of positive gay representation, and complex family dynamics. This kept the book multi-dimensional, all without getting side-tracked from the main story.
As someone who, admittedly, doesn’t know much about the indigenous community of Aruba, it was great to get a little bit of an inside look in the culture and the customs. I was pleased to see that the indigenous characters carried that identity with pride. I would like to learn more about the culture through literature, as it is a way of cementing the history for generations to come.
Aruba Dushi Tera
Finally, I loved that the story found a way to (subtly) shine a light on many issues we face every day as Arubans. From child exploitation; to domestic abuse; to our schools not being safe enough; to corruption. That being said, this book does not bash Aruba by any means, it simply recognizes that even on the most beautiful land, there are problems that need fixing.
Amen cu Sanger is an important piece of modern literature, and tells a captivating story that will pull on your heartstrings. If you want to feel, think, laugh, and cry, give this book a read!

25.7. Layered presentation of metadata. Compilers of international merchandise trade statistics must make sufficient metadata available to enable both the least and the most sophisticated users to readily assess data and their quality (see IMTS 2010, para. 9.22). It is good practice to structure metadata in layers of incremental detail while providing clear links between high-level and specific metadata concepts. Such a layered presentation allows the needs of diverse groups of users, who may have different levels of statistical expertise, to be met.
25.8. Presentation of structural and reference metadata. IMTS 2010 (para. 9.22 (b)) recommends that structural metadata be presented as an integral part of the international merchandise trade statistics database in such a way as to be extractable together with any data item and published as part of statistical tables. On the other hand, reference metadata could be presented in the form of a detailed explanatory note describing the scope, coverage, and quality of a data set and be made available electronically alongside the database or in special publications (para.9.22 (a)).
25.9. Use of standardized metadata concepts. It is recommended that the dissemination of metadata related to international merchandise trade statistics be carried out in compliance with the approach adopted by a given country to metadata across all areas of economic statistics (IMTS 2010, para. 9.25). Whenever feasible, therefore, it is good practice for compilers of international merchandise trade statistics structure to present their metadata using standardized concepts that are relevant across statistical domains (e.g., by adopting cross-domain concepts derived from the SDMX framework or the OECD Glossary of Statistical Terms). The aim should be to promote harmonization of statistical information and its related high-level metadata across various institutions and statistical domains, even if some specific metadata concepts are not applicable or are organized differently in different domains or institutions.
25.10. Linking data and metadata. As metadata are generated and processed during every step of the compilation process, there is a strong need for a metadata management system to ensure that the appropriate metadata retain their links with data. IMTS 2010 recommends that metadata dissemination be an integral part of the dissemination of international merchandise trade statistics (IMTS 2010, para. 9.25). A good practice in this regard is to actively link metadata to the statistical data they describe, and vice versa, by implementing metadata-driven systems and management systems for metadata throughout the various stages of the statistical production process. There are several information model specifications that can contribute to achieving this goal (most notably SDMX and DDI). While such specifications are designed to enable performance of different functions, they can be used together in the same system, or complement each other, in the compilation and exchange of data and metadata.
25.11. Metadata registries. A metadata registry is a central repository (usually a database itself) with information that allows linking the detailed definitions (semantics) and the codes (representations) of the metadata items used to describe a particular statistical data set. The Euro-SDMX registry is an example of a metadata registry (which implements the SDMX registry specifications). It is good practice for compilers of international merchandise trade statistics to put special emphasis on the development, maintenance and dissemination of metadata registries at the national and international levels in order to improve the harmonization, standardization, use, reuse and interchange of their metadata.
25.12. Access to metadata. Compilers of international merchandise trade statistics should make every effort to ensure that users have ready access to metadata through multiple dissemination channels, both in printed and in electronic format (whereby Internet dissemination plays a key role). As a general rule, as metadata is considered as having a high public good component, their on-line dissemination should be free of charge, regardless of whether the international merchandise trade statistics they describe are disseminated for a fee according to the compiling organization’s policies.

 The Data Documentation Initiative (DDI) is an effort to create an international standard for describing data from the social, behavioural, and economic sciences.
 See, e.g., A. Gregory, P. Heus and J. Ryssevik, “Metadata”, Working Paper No. 57 (German Council for Social and Economic Data (RatSWD), March 2009).

JULY 22, 2019
The second edition of FISHING AND TYING SMALL FLIES is out. The release date was June 26, 2019. I’ve looked forward to writing a second edition of my FISHING SMALL FLIES and TYING SMALL FLIES volumes because it gave me a chance to clean up some misconceptions I had when I wrote the first editions and I’ve been able to add some new material. As you can see we decided to combine the two first editions into a single volume for the second edition. This should make things a little handier and the index is much better than the first editions. We also got rid of the black and white photos contained in the first edition of FISHING SMALL FLIES and went to all color photos.
I’ve retained most of the info in the first editions except where I updated or corrected it and added a new tying chapter on Pale Morning Duns and their relatives. I’ve also sprinkled in new fly recipes and tying instructions in various chapters throughout the tying section of the book. A number of these patterns come from fishing and tying friends that I really respect. All I can say is a few of them are dynamite. I’ll let you find them. And hang on when you fish them…..

The prophet Micah describes the coming of a new ruler from Bethlehem, who will restore Israel and “stand and feed his flock.”
Luke tells the story of Mary’s visit to her cousin Elizabeth. At the sound of Mary’s voice, the babe in the womb of Elizabeth stirs with joy, and this is received by her as a sign that Mary’s own unborn child is “the Lord.” Elizabeth’s response become the “Hail Mary” so well known in Catholicism, and Mary’s reply the equally famous “Magnificat”, in which song Mary rejoices in the God who uplifts the lowly and humbles the proud.
The Letter to the Hebrews describes how Christ’s coming into the world fulfills and replaces the former temple system of sacrificial offerings. Jesus offers himself, once for all, fulfilling God’s will in a way that previous offerings could never do.
Comment: As a Christian I look “back” to the law and the prophets and see their hope for a coming ruler fulfilled in a completely unexpected way by the birth of Jesus. This way of “looking back” is taken by Luke, who tells the birth story of Jesus from the vantage of two humble women of no apparent significance. The Messiah comes not from royalty, but the common people! This in itself tells us much about how God chooses to dwell among us. The Letter to the Hebrews also looks back to see how this Jesus, in his life of obedience to the Father, fulfills the law and replaces the temple ritual. May we continue to see how God works in such unexpected, simple ways, among unlikely people -people such as you and me.

Waid's JLA: Tower of Babel by Holly Hatton
1. How is the work illustrated?
Tower of Babel has a realistic and artistic illustration type. The colors are varied and work well with the actual drawings. At times it can be cartoony, but it allows the reader to see when the concepts are intended to be less serious and more comical. This graphic novel in no way is meant to be funny, so the realistic artwork captures the tone of the grave situation presented within the text.
Click below for more...
2. Why was this story written as a graphic novel?
This novel was meant to be written as it was. In a so called typical novel, the beautiful artwork would be translated into words that couldnt possibly hold as much weight with the reader. How could words say how J'onn's face looked as he was covered in fire? Details that would be crucial to the overall feel of the story would be lost in the words. A movie would be more a forgiving method next. But once again, things would be lost. How the words and images act together allow the story to capture the intrigue of the reader. A graphic novel is the only true option for this Justice League of America story.
3. Who narrates the story?
The story actually does not have a continuing narrator. Each character says what it needs to without one overlapping the others. Excluding the few pages when Talia recounts past events that she did to secure the information she needed. Besides that, the story has no narrator, but the people within the frame talking for themselves.
4. Describe one scene in the novel, either a single frame or a series of frames, that you feel is particularly significant.
Tower of Babel was split into four parts. The frames I thought were significant were in Part 2: Seven Little Indians. We find a scene that shows Batman being confronted with a peice of Kryptonite, that he created. Finally at this point, Batman realizes the his friends were in grave danger because of the precations he found against each of the members of his Justice League. This scene is when the reader finds out how the assassins know exactly how to destroy the heros. The Detective, a.k.a. Batman, is ultimatly responsible for providing the information for our villian (even if he did not realize it) to immobilize the League.

Back to the History of Project Delta
The entries in this section of the mail archive index are selected messages from the initial efforts to find folks. Here you have proof that the Deltoids mailing list and this web site all snowballed out of one innocent little note from Rich Thomson. From there, we found Teresa Green, the Bakers (Clark and Ed), Alan Flippen, Jim Stallings, etc., etc.
With the help of my wife Cecelia, we launched what some might call a spam mailing campaign. Cecelia prefers to refer to it as the "Search and Implicate Initiative." Anyway, we sent out messages to everyone with a given name of a known Deltoid that we could find in AltaVista, 411, and other search engines. The names came from an alumni list that was done in 1991 and from Ernie Perez's rolodex. These mailings are not included in this index, although many of the replies are.
In the process of finding all of these people, we received many wonderful stories. The purpose of this index is to make these stories available to the would be historians among us. Yes, you'll have to sort though some noise, but there are some gems in here.
A word regarding privacy: since these messages were sent to Cecelia and I personally and not to the list, we have deleted some of the personal information included. Specifically, mailing address and phone numbers that were not part of a signature file have been deleted. Also, many messages included the alumni list as it existed at the time. These have been edited out to avoid overloading the robotic search engines out there with occurrences of everyones' given names.
If you find anything in here that you would rather not have made publicly available, please let me know, and I will accommodate your wishes.

Since I published the book in 2013, Overcoming Retroactive Jealousy has helped thousands of men and women from around the world make peace with their partner’s past relationships and/or sexual history, and regain control over obsessive jealous thoughts and anxiety.
In nineteen jam-packed chapters, I outline a series of proven, time-tested strategies, practices, and perspectives for confronting and overcoming intrusive, unwanted thoughts regarding a partner’s past as painlessly and efficiently as possible.
The Overcoming Jealousy Workbook:
Daily Writing Prompts and Exercises for Overcoming Jealousy in Relationships
The Overcoming Jealousy Workbook features eight weeks of writing prompts and journaling exercises for confronting and overcoming jealousy in relationships.

Long story short, it turns out the WebDAV support in Windows 7 doesn't seem to like certain characters in paths, specifically space in this case (although I assume there are others). In this case it didn't like that the Document Library was at:
This is with WebClnt.dll 6.1.7601.21728, which is the most recent I could track down.
The work around is to rename the document library. Since you can't do this directly from the SharePoint web interface, I had to do it using SharePoint Workspaces. Once the library was renamed, it's working properly now.

I decided not to implicate her, and the librarian reported that there were two ways to proceed: I could order a copy through the library, or place my own order and simply offer it as a substitute. The library could get it for me for $30, $5 more than the new Amazon price and $25 more that a used copy in good condition.
Don't libraries buy lots of books? How can it be that I can get a better price than they can? It doesn't make a lot of sense. And when I asked the librarian if they had considered printing their own copies of material available through Project Gutenberg, she looked at me like I had asked her if she knew when the Mongols ruled China.

|Makale Başlık İngilizce||Western Self Images in Agatha Christie’s Death on the Nile: A Postcolonial Reading|
This study is an extension of another study of mine analyzing the delineation of the Orient and oriental in Agatha Christie's Death on the Nile from the vantage point of Edward W. Said's critique of Orientalism. The mentioned study concerning the western images of the Orient and oriental in Death on the Nile concludes with the ideas that Christie, in the portrayal of the Orient and oriental in her novel, relied on the stereotypical deep-seated prejudices about the Orient and oriental, and that as Christie reflected them via her own cultural bias and her western perspective, and as she took into account western norms in the identification of the oriental, her novel is an orientalist discourse reinforcing the negative and false image of the Orient. The central aim of the present paper is to study the reflection of the European characters in the novel in order to provide a contrastive analysis of Christie's depiction of both eastern and western characters and thus to argue that whereas Christie is concerned to bring to the fore the negative qualities of eastern people rather than the positive ones, the other way round is true in the depiction of western characters. The main action in Death on the Nile rests on the relationships, greediness, efforts to acquire money and gains, hatred, jealousies, vices and murders of the western characters; however, as this study highlights, Christie does not reflect them in such a negative way that she adopted in the projection of eastern characters, all of whom she employed as background characters. The paper also indicates that the construction of the western self images in Death on the Nile has been achieved by means of a detour through the 'Other', i.e. easterners in the novel has a significant role in the westerner's self-defining since they are always categorized as the 'Other' of the westerner. Christie drew her western characters with the positive qualities opposed to the negative ones attached to her eastern characters. The study concludes that in Christie's portrayal of western characters, her tolerance toward them in spite of their having the worst kinds of frauds and her construction of western self-images by detouring the 'Other' are the indications of her orientalism other than but also supportive of those presented in my study aforementioned and dealing with western image of the Orient and oriental in Death on the Nile.


42 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech.
43 And he took the people, and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field, and looked, and, behold, the people were come forth out of the city; and he rose up against them, and smote them.
44 And Abimelech, and the company that was with him, rushed forward, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city: and the two other companies ran upon all the people that were in the fields, and slew them.
45 And Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city, and slew the people that was therein, and beat down the city, and sowed it with salt.
46 And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard that, they entered into an hold of the house of the god Berith.
47 And it was told Abimelech, that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.
48 And Abimelech gat him up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people that were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it, and laid it on his shoulder, and said unto the people that were with him, What ye have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done.
49 And all the people likewise cut down every man his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put them to the hold, and set the hold on fire upon them; so that all the men of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women.
50 Then went Abimelech to Thebez, and encamped against Thebez, and took it.
51 But there was a strong tower within the city, and thither fled all the men and women, and all they of the city, and shut it to them, and gat them up to the top of the tower.
52 And Abimelech came unto the tower, and fought against it, and went hard unto the door of the tower to burn it with fire.
53 And a certain woman cast a piece of a millstone upon Abimelech's head, and all to brake his skull.
54 Then he called hastily unto the young man his armourbearer, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that men say not of me, A women slew him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died.
55 And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man unto his place.
56 Thus God rendered the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did unto his father, in slaying his seventy brethren:
57 And all the evil of the men of Shechem did God render upon their heads: and upon them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal.


HISTORY’S GREATEST MYSTERIES: TITANIC’S LOST EVIDENCE
24 January 20:15 CAT
For 107 years, a dust-covered box has remained hidden in a British manor house, and may contain evidence that will rewrite the most famous maritime disaster in history. This box contains the personal notes of Lord Mersey, the respected British jurist and politician charged with investigating the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. HISTORY has secured permission to open it – a first in history. The box contains information about Titanic’s voyage including new context on fatal mistakes allegedly made by the captain and crew, and perhaps signs of a cover-up.


Sundara Kandam: The Story of Hanuman's Search for Sita in Lanka
Sundara Kandam is the fifth book of the epic Ramayana, composed by the sage Valmiki in Sanskrit. It narrates the heroic deeds of Hanuman, the monkey-god and the faithful devotee of Rama, who crossed the ocean to find Sita, the abducted wife of Rama, in Lanka, the island kingdom of Ravana, the demon-king. Sundara Kandam means \"the beautiful book\" or \"the book of beauty\", as it describes the beauty of Hanuman's character, courage, eloquence and glory.
In this book, Hanuman leads a group of monkeys to the south of India, where they encounter various obstacles and challenges in their quest for Sita. Hanuman meets Mainaka, a mountain sent by Indra to help him; Surasa, a giantess who tests his intelligence; Simhika, a sea-monster who tries to devour him; and Lankini, a guardian demoness who blocks his entry to Lanka. Hanuman overcomes them all with his strength, wit and devotion. He reaches Lanka and searches for Sita in every palace and garden. He finally finds her in Ashoka Vana, a grove of sorrow, where she is tormented by Ravana's rakshasas (demons). Hanuman consoles her and gives her Rama's ring as a token of his identity. He also shows her his true form as a huge monkey and tells her the story of Rama. He offers to carry her back to Rama, but she refuses, saying that it is Rama's duty to rescue her. She asks Hanuman to convey her message to Rama and urges him to come soon.
Hanuman then decides to create havoc in Lanka and destroy Ravana's pride. He uproots trees and kills many rakshasas. He sets fire to Ravana's palace and other buildings with his flaming tail. He also kills Aksha, Ravana's son, and defeats Jambumali, Ravana's nephew. He confronts Ravana himself and challenges him to release Sita or face Rama's wrath. He escapes from the clutches of Indrajit, Ravana's eldest son, who binds him with Brahmastra, a divine weapon. He meets Sita again and takes her permission to leave. He also gives her a jewel from his neck as a souvenir. He returns to the sky and flies back to India.
Hanuman rejoins his monkey friends and tells them the good news of finding Sita. They all rejoice and praise him for his marvelous feat. They cross the ocean again and reach Kishkindha, the monkey kingdom ruled by Sugriva, Rama's ally. Hanuman meets Rama and gives him Sita's message and jewel. He also describes Lanka's fortifications and army. Rama is overjoyed and embraces Hanuman. He praises him for his loyalty, bravery and skill. He says that Hanuman has done more than anyone else for him and that he owes him his life. He also says that wherever Rama's story is sung or heard, Hanuman's glory will also be celebrated.
Rama then prepares to invade Lanka with his monkey army. He builds a bridge across the ocean with the help of Nala, a monkey engineer. He reaches Lanka with Lakshmana, his brother; Vibhishana, Ravana's brother who defects to his side; Hanuman; Angada; Jambavan; Nila; Sugriva; and other valiant monkeys. He fights a fierce war with Ravana and his rakshasa army. He kills many of Ravana's generals and sons, including Kumbhakarna, Indrajit and Atikaya. He finally confronts Ravana himself and slays him with his arrow. He rescues Sita from captivity and crowns Vibhishana as the new king of Lanka. He returns to Ayodhya with Sita, Lakshmana and Hanuman after completing his fourteen years of exile. He is welcomed by his people and coronated as the king of Ayodhya. He rules with justice and righteousness for many years.

17.00 – 18.00, Putvinskio 23, room #310. Zoom
Presentation of the first Lithuanian history of Belarus: Rūstis Kamuntavičius “Gudijos istorija/Baltarusijos istorija” MELC/LDKI 2021
To date, no Lithuanian author has published a synthetic history of Belarus. Even translations from other languages do not exist. This happened despite the fact that from the 13th century Lithuanians and Belarusians lived together in one state, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. This history book is not written with the intention to tell “how things really went”, with a list of events and processes that once took place. Its aim is to compare the Lithuanian and Belarusian narratives of their common past. Why are these narratives so different? What is the cause behind the establishment of some “truths” in Lithuania and some others in Belarus? What is their impact on the identity of these people and on mutual communication? Particular attention is paid to the 19th-20th centuries, especially to how both nations developed and to what are the common and the distinctive features of each path.
Speakers: the author Rūstis Kamuntavičius (Vytautas Magnus University), Siarhiej Chareŭski (European Humanities University) and Tomasz Błaszczak (Vytautas Magnus University).
18.00 – 19.00, Putvinskio 23, room # 310. Zoom
Public discussion: “How to call Belarus in Lithuanian?” (the discussion will be held in Lithuanian)
On September 19, 1991, the Supreme Soviet of the Byelarussian SSR passed a law which changed the name of the country into the “Republic of Belarus” (Рэспубліка Беларусь, or shortly – Беларусь in Belarusian). It also declared that the name has to be transliterated into other languages in accordance with the Belarusian version. The United Nations recommended for other countries to take that into account; many nations chose the name Belarus even before that. In Lithuania there have been numerous proposals to change the current name – Baltarusija. In early 2021 the leader of Belarusian opposition S. Tikhanovskaya (С. Ціханоўская) approached the Lithuanian Minister of Foreign Affairs with a request to officially call her country Belarusia. Subsequently, Lithuanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, together with the State Commission of the Lithuanian Language, urged the experts to publicly discuss the use and the possibility of changing the Lithuanian current name of Belarus. In this public discussion, arguments, counter arguments, differences and similarities between possible alternative Lithuanian names for Baltarusija are going to be discussed by their proponents. The language of the discussion – Lithuanian, with a possibility to express an opinion in a different language.
Speakers: Dr Valius Venckūnas (Vilnius University), Dr Arūnas Vyšniauskas (Genocide and Resistance Research Centre of Lithuania), Dr Rūstis Kamuntavičius (Vytautas Magnus University).

Published in 2019, the book written by researchers from Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine is the first attempt to present the life and work of Ivan Kraskovski, who was born in 1880 in Dubicze Cerkiewne, located in present-day Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland. His journey took him to Warsaw, St. Petersburg, Vilnius, Kiev and other Ukrainian cities, the Caucasus, post-war Austria and Germany, independent Lithuania and Latvia, various parts of the USSR and ended in Czechoslovak Bratislava in 1955.

Break Through: How To End Relationship Dysfunction
"Alarms are intended to spur us into immediate, lifesaving action. Yet people who wouldn't consider staying in a building when the fire alarm goes off will stay in enmeshed relationships after numerous wake-up calls." (Break Through, pg.54)
Break Through by Dr. Tim Clinton, LPC & Pat Springle is a Christian-based book on how to create healthy relationships as adults. It includes real-life examples, Christian/Bible references, and study guide questions at the end of each chapter. It speaks of real love as nonpossessive wealth and shows how to love like Jesus.
Many get trapped in enmeshed relationships of enabling and justification rather than honesty and tough love, which is something we carry over from childhood. Tim and Pat (which is how they refer to themselves throughout the book) help the reader identify these patterns and learn to break through the barriers to change.
The book also speaks of moral schizophrenia, and how we blame ourselves and then blame others for certain unhealthy relationships in which we become trapped. It shows us how to set boundaries, gain wise adult-like trust and confront those we love with the truth rather than continuing to enable them. Change doesn't come easy, but it can happen with consistency.
I really enjoyed the book because it's interesting and easy to read. It touches upon many forms of dysfunction so that just about anyone can relate. I like the practical application advice as well as the appendix, which includes a guide for parenting. There is also an outline on how to use this book in a group setting. The Christian touch is like homemade chocolate icing on your favorite cake. I think you'll agree.

Thought you all interested in Forensic Nursing would like to read this: ANA And International Association Of Forensic Nurses Co-Publish First Standards For Forensic Nursing
The American Nurses Association (ANA) and the International Association of Forensic Nurses (IAFN) released Forensic Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice, a comprehensive reference guide that identifies and defines the expectations for the role and practice of the forensic nurse. Forensic nursing focuses not only on providing patient care, but its practitioners also collect evidence, counsel patients and communicate with professionals in legal systems.
Developed by a panel of nurse experts convened by the ANA and the IAFN, the guide outlines six standards for forensic nursing practice and nine standards for professional performance. In addition, the guide articulates the essentials of this specialty, its accountabilities and activities - the who, what, when, where and how of its practice - both for specialists and generalists and those who work with them. Forensic nurses are among the most diverse groups of clinicians in the nursing profession with respect to patient populations served, practice settings, and forensic and healthcare services provided. Yet all forensic nurses apply a unique combination of processes rooted in nursing science, forensic science, and public health to care for patients.
In addition to recommended standards of professional performance, the book's summary discussion of the scope of forensic nursing practice -- including characteristics, trends, education, practice environments, and its ethical and conceptual bases -- lends an informative and broad context for the reader's understanding and use of these standards.
While Forensic Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice is a reference primarily for practicing nurses and nursing faculty and students, it is also an essential document for other specialists in forensic care, such as healthcare providers, researchers, scholars, and those involved in funding, legal, policy, and regulatory activities
