Table of Links Abstract & Introduction Motivation Opportunities Architecture Overview Proble Formulation: Two-Phase Tuning Modeling Workload Interference Experiments Conclusion & References A. Hardware Details B. Experimental Results C. Arithmetic Intensity D. Predictor Analysis 8 CONCLUSION In this work, we examine the unique characteristics of energy consumption in neural network inference, especially for edge devices. We identified unique tradeoffs and dimensions between energy consumption and inference latency SLOs and empirically demonstrated hidden components in optimizing energy consumption. We then propose an optimization framework that automatically and holistically tunes various hardware components to find a configuration aligned with the Pareto Frontier. We empirically verify the effectiveness and efficiency of PolyThrottle. PolyThrottle also adapts to the need for fine-tuning and proposes a simple performance prediction model to adaptively schedule finetuning requests while keeping the online inference workload under the inference latency SLO whenever possible. We hope our study sheds more light on the hidden dimension of NN energy optimization. REFERENCES Jetson partner solutions ebook.

CATALOGUE OF THE WORKS OF LEONARDO DA VINCI.

Scientific American, Volume XXXVI., No. 8, February 24, 1877 by Various, is part of the HackerNoon Books Series. You can jump to any chapter in this book . The Hemi-Plunger here THE HEMI-PLUNGER. The novel form of vessel, to which the above odd name has been given by its inventor, M. Donato Tommasi, of Paris, France, is a combination of a boat wholly submerged with a raft: a connecting link, to borrow the naturalist's expression, between the submerged torpedo boat and the monitor. The advantages which are expected to be realized from this hybrid craft, the inventor describes as follows: "It is evident that a vessel, plunged several yards below the surface of the sea, is no longer influenced by wind or wave. Let the sea be agitated, let there be the most violent tempest, yet the boat which navigates under water will never be wrecked, for the same reason that a fish cannot be drowned. * * * What a beautiful vision, that of traversing the ocean, as a balloon floats through the air, with the same tranquillity, without shocks, without the insupportable rolling and pitching!" etc. The construction of the invention introduced in this glowing manner will be understood from Figs. 1 and 2. A is the plunger cylinder, shown with its side broken away in Fig. 2. In Fig. 1, G is the rudder, H the propeller, and I the tube through which sea water passes to the pump. In Fig. 2, C is the smokestack, M M are compartments in which water may be admitted to increase the weight, and hence the depth of flotation of the plunger, the same being filled or emptied by the pump, P. N is the hold for merchandise, partitioned off from the boiler room as shown. From the plunger, A, rise two hollow columns, E, to which metallic plates, F, are attached to diminish friction through the water. These support the upper division or platform, B. The second shaft (not lettered), which rises above the platform in Fig. 1, serves to ventilate the plunger. The columns, E, serve as shoots down which merchandise is lowered to the compartments, N; and their upper ends are received in two immense inverted cups attached to the bottom of the part, B. Through these cups pass large screws, which confine the columns so that, by removing the connection, the whole submarine apparatus may in case of necessity be freed from the upper works. On each side of the platform, B, which is of elliptical figure, is a large float, seen in Fig. 3, which, by means of racks and gearing, may be raised or lowered at will. Usually these floats are carried at a height of a yard above the water. In calm weather, this distance is increased, and in storms it is diminished, the object of the floats being to keep the whole vessel on an even plane, and to prevent too violent oscillations. In order to facilitate navigation in shallow water, the columns, E, may be made telescopic, and operated by hydraulic apparatus, so that they may be shortened at will. Any form of engine or propeller may be used. Besides the advantage of the vessel being unaffected by waves, since its submerged portion travels far below them, the inventor claims that it will meet less resistance from the water than would a vessel of corresponding volume sailing on the surface. It will make faster progress, because it has no waves to mount and descend; and hence it always travels in a nearly right line. The screw being submerged at a great depth will not tend to turn the vessel from her straight path. The platform being easily detachable may serve as a raft in case of injury to the submarine boat. For fast travel, on lakes, rivers, and shallow water generally, M. Tommasi proposes to support his platform on two floats which rest on the surface of the water. No weight, therefore, is thrown on the submarine vessel, which need be constructed with only just enough buoyancy to sustain itself and its engine. In this way, the upper craft has no engine or other load than its cargo; and as it merely rests upon the surface, the inventor thinks that it will skim over the same like an ice boat on ice. For war purposes, the hemi-plunger is especially adapted, because the vulnerable portions, engines, boiler, rudder, etc., are wholly out of the reach of shot. Guns are mounted on the platform, which thus becomes a circular or elliptical turret, just above the water when the vessel is in fighting trim. Instead of steel armor, M. Tommasi has a new invention which he calls hydro-metallic plating. He reserves the details of this for future publication; but generally the armor consists of tubes in which liquid is forced under a pressure equivalent to the resistance, say, of forged steel. He thinks this will oppose shot as effectually as the solid metal, and will have the additional advantage of superior lightness. In-soles saturated with salicylic acid have been introduced as a remedy for perspiration of the feet.

THE HEMI-PLUNGER

Why is Roblox Special? 

Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea by Jules Verne, is part of the HackerNoon Books Series. You can jump to any chapter in this book . A WALK ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA here CHAPTER XV: A WALK ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA This cell was, to speak correctly, the arsenal and wardrobe of the . A dozen diving apparatuses hung from the partition, waiting our use. Nautilus Ned Land, on seeing them, showed evident repugnance to dress himself in one. “But, my worthy Ned, the forests of the Island of Crespo are nothing but submarine forests.” “Good!” said the disappointed harpooner, who saw his dreams of fresh meat fade away. “And you, M. Aronnax, are you going to dress yourself in those clothes?” “There is no alternative, Master Ned.” “As you please, sir,” replied the harpooner, shrugging his shoulders; “but as for me, unless I am forced, I will never get into one.” “No one will force you, Master Ned,” said Captain Nemo. “Is Conseil going to risk it?” asked Ned. “I follow my master wherever he goes,” replied Conseil. At the Captain’s call two of the ship’s crew came to help us to dress in these heavy and impervious clothes, made of india-rubber without seam, and constructed expressly to resist considerable pressure. One would have thought it a suit of armour, both supple and resisting. This suit formed trousers and waistcoat. The trousers were finished off with thick boots, weighted with heavy leaden soles. The texture of the waistcoat was held together by bands of copper, which crossed the chest, protecting it from the great pressure of the water, and leaving the lungs free to act; the sleeves ended in gloves, which in no way restrained the movement of the hands. There was a vast difference noticeable between these consummate apparatuses and the old cork breastplates, jackets, and other contrivances in vogue during the eighteenth century. Captain Nemo and one of his companions (a sort of Hercules, who must have possessed great strength), Conseil, and myself, were soon enveloped in the dresses. There remained nothing more to be done but to enclose our heads in the metal box. But before proceeding to this operation, I asked the Captain’s permission to examine the guns we were to carry. One of the men gave me a simple gun, the butt end of which, made of steel, hollow in the centre, was rather large. It served as a reservoir for compressed air, which a valve, worked by a spring, allowed to escape into a metal tube. A box of projectiles, in a groove in the thickness of the butt end, contained about twenty of these electric balls, which, by means of a spring, were forced into the barrel of the gun. As soon as one shot was fired, another was ready. Nautilus “Captain Nemo,” said I, “this arm is perfect, and easily handled: I only ask to be allowed to try it. But how shall we gain the bottom of the sea?” “At this moment, Professor, the is stranded in five fathoms, and we have nothing to do but to start.” Nautilus “But how shall we get off?” “You shall see.” Captain Nemo thrust his head into the helmet, Conseil and I did the same, not without hearing an ironical “Good sport!” from the Canadian. The upper part of our dress terminated in a copper collar upon which was screwed the metal helmet. Three holes, protected by thick glass, allowed us to see in all directions, by simply turning our head in the interior of the head-dress. As soon as it was in position, the Rouquayrol apparatus on our backs began to act; and, for my part, I could breathe with ease. With the Ruhmkorff lamp hanging from my belt, and the gun in my hand, I was ready to set out. But to speak the truth, imprisoned in these heavy garments, and glued to the deck by my leaden soles, it was impossible for me to take a step. But this state of things was provided for. I felt myself being pushed into a little room contiguous to the wardrobe-room. My companions followed, towed along in the same way. I heard a water-tight door, furnished with stopper-plates, close upon us, and we were wrapped in profound darkness. After some minutes, a loud hissing was heard. I felt the cold mount from my feet to my chest. Evidently from some part of the vessel they had, by means of a tap, given entrance to the water, which was invading us, and with which the room was soon filled. A second door cut in the side of the then opened. We saw a faint light. In another instant our feet trod the bottom of the sea. Nautilus And now, how can I retrace the impression left upon me by that walk under the waters? Words are impotent to relate such wonders! Captain Nemo walked in front, his companion followed some steps behind. Conseil and I remained near each other, as if an exchange of words had been possible through our metallic cases. I no longer felt the weight of my clothing, or of my shoes, of my reservoir of air, or my thick helmet, in the midst of which my head rattled like an almond in its shell. The light, which lit the soil thirty feet below the surface of the ocean, astonished me by its power. The solar rays shone through the watery mass easily, and dissipated all colour, and I clearly distinguished objects at a distance of a hundred and fifty yards. Beyond that the tints darkened into fine gradations of ultramarine, and faded into vague obscurity. Truly this water which surrounded me was but another air denser than the terrestrial atmosphere, but almost as transparent. Above me was the calm surface of the sea. We were walking on fine, even sand, not wrinkled, as on a flat shore, which retains the impression of the billows. This dazzling carpet, really a reflector, repelled the rays of the sun with wonderful intensity, which accounted for the vibration which penetrated every atom of liquid. Shall I be believed when I say that, at the depth of thirty feet, I could see as if I was in broad daylight? For a quarter of an hour I trod on this sand, sown with the impalpable dust of shells. The hull of the , resembling a long shoal, disappeared by degrees; but its lantern, when darkness should overtake us in the waters, would help to guide us on board by its distinct rays. Nautilus Soon forms of objects outlined in the distance were discernible. I recognised magnificent rocks, hung with a tapestry of zoophytes of the most beautiful kind, and I was at first struck by the peculiar effect of this medium. It was then ten in the morning; the rays of the sun struck the surface of the waves at rather an oblique angle, and at the touch of their light, decomposed by refraction as through a prism, flowers, rocks, plants, shells, and polypi were shaded at the edges by the seven solar colours. It was marvellous, a feast for the eyes, this complication of coloured tints, a perfect kaleidoscope of green, yellow, orange, violet, indigo, and blue; in one word, the whole palette of an enthusiastic colourist! Why could I not communicate to Conseil the lively sensations which were mounting to my brain, and rival him in expressions of admiration? For aught I knew, Captain Nemo and his companion might be able to exchange thoughts by means of signs previously agreed upon. So, for want of better, I talked to myself; I declaimed in the copper box which covered my head, thereby expending more air in vain words than was perhaps expedient. Various kinds of isis, clusters of pure tuft-coral, prickly fungi, and anemones formed a brilliant garden of flowers, enamelled with porphitæ, decked with their collarettes of blue tentacles, sea-stars studding the sandy bottom, together with asterophytons like fine lace embroidered by the hands of naïads, whose festoons were waved by the gentle undulations caused by our walk. It was a real grief to me to crush under my feet the brilliant specimens of molluscs which strewed the ground by thousands, of hammer-heads, donaciae (veritable bounding shells), of staircases, and red helmet-shells, angel-wings, and many others produced by this inexhaustible ocean. But we were bound to walk, so we went on, whilst above our heads waved shoals of physalides leaving their tentacles to float in their train, medusæ whose umbrellas of opal or rose-pink, escalloped with a band of blue, sheltered us from the rays of the sun and fiery pelagiæ, which, in the darkness, would have strewn our path with phosphorescent light. All these wonders I saw in the space of a quarter of a mile, scarcely stopping, and following Captain Nemo, who beckoned me on by signs. Soon the nature of the soil changed; to the sandy plain succeeded an extent of slimy mud, which the Americans call “ooze,” composed of equal parts of silicious and calcareous shells. We then travelled over a plain of sea-weed of wild and luxuriant vegetation. This sward was of close texture, and soft to the feet, and rivalled the softest carpet woven by the hand of man. But whilst verdure was spread at our feet, it did not abandon our heads. A light network of marine plants, of that inexhaustible family of sea-weeds of which more than two thousand kinds are known, grew on the surface of the water. I saw long ribbons of fucus floating, some globular, others tuberous; laurenciæ and cladostephi of most delicate foliage, and some rhodomeniæ palmatæ, resembling the fan of a cactus. I noticed that the green plants kept nearer the top of the sea, whilst the red were at a greater depth, leaving to the black or brown hydrophytes the care of forming gardens and parterres in the remote beds of the ocean. We had quitted the about an hour and a half. It was near noon; I knew by the perpendicularity of the sun’s rays, which were no longer refracted. The magical colours disappeared by degrees, and the shades of emerald and sapphire were effaced. We walked with a regular step, which rang upon the ground with astonishing intensity; the slightest noise was transmitted with a quickness to which the ear is unaccustomed on the earth; indeed, water is a better conductor of sound than air, in the ratio of four to one. At this period the earth sloped downwards; the light took a uniform tint. We were at a depth of a hundred and five yards and twenty inches, undergoing a pressure of six atmospheres. Nautilus At this depth I could still see the rays of the sun, though feebly; to their intense brilliancy had succeeded a reddish twilight, the lowest state between day and night; but we could still see well enough; it was not necessary to resort to the Ruhmkorff apparatus as yet. At this moment Captain Nemo stopped; he waited till I joined him, and then pointed to an obscure mass, looming in the shadow, at a short distance. “It is the forest of the Island of Crespo,” thought I;—and I was not mistaken.

A WALK ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA

In this article, we examine the potential disruption of the radio host/live-stream industry through the use of artificial intelligence technology. By analyzing the average radio host salary, the number of spots per hour, the total words spoken per hour, and other factors such as music licensing fees, we demonstrate that it is possible to create a fully automated radio station using AI technology at a fraction of the cost of hiring human talent. We showcase a live demonstration of one such solution currently active under Avalon Star Streams brand, where after running songs from a creative commons music stream, the AI generates new radio content during breaks between those songs, even allowing the random selection of new songs if desired. Finally, we provide details on the tech stack utilized including NodeJS docker image which allows us to control ffmpeg streams and manage playlists efficiently. Running Example At the time of this writing, you can find the example live-streaming at and . Twitch.TV YouTube If for any reason the demo is not live streaming feel free to checkout this YouTube video for an example. https://youtu.be/Jnb4bMJc7x8?embedable=true the YouTube video show cases 2 auto-generated scripts with the AI Voice Actor Antoni Starr. The first is a call for donations, and the second is a random ad play with announcing the next song. NOTE: Cost analysis The key driver behind the potential disruption of the radio host industry lies in the significant reduction in labor costs. Utilizing current pricing models, the yearly cost of AI voice services required to run a full radio station amounts only to approximately $4100 compared to a national average salary of radio hosts estimated around $42k [0]. With an average radio spot duration of 16 minutes and an average speaking rate of 140 words per minute [1][2], each radio spot consists of approximately 2,240 words. AI-powered content generation, such as ChatGPT, comes at a cost of around $0.002 per 750 words. Thus, the total cost of using GPT for one hour of content amounts to approximately $0.006. With radio hosts spending around 45.5 hours per month on air [1], the yearly cost of GPT usage is estimated to be approximately $55. Furthermore, integrating Eleven Labs’ AI voice technology, priced at $330 per month for 40 hours of usage [3], incurs an annual cost of around $4,000. Considering the combined expenses of GPT and Eleven Labs, the total cost of implementing AI for a radio host is approximately $4,100 per year. This represents a significant cost reduction compared to traditional production methods and opens up new possibilities for radio/live-stream hosts with limited budgets. Further considerations While some might argue that AI generated content lacks emotional depth and personal touch provided by human talent, recent advancements in natural language processing have shown otherwise. With deep learning algorithms, AI systems can now analyze vast troves of linguistic data and learn nuances in context, tone and cadence of speech. When trained properly, these systems are able to mimic human-like qualities while still maintaining accuracy and efficiency. In fact, many industries ranging from customer service to journalism have already seen initial success with implementing chat-bots and machine-generated content due to economic advantages, even in sectors thought immune to technological takeover. Ultimately, it seems reasonable to assume a similar future for broadcasting markets like radio hosting. Examples Under our Avalon Star Stream brand, we set up a proof of concept showcasing the efficiency of AI assisted broadcasting. Leveraging open-source tools like ffmpeg and integrated within our custom NodeJS application framework managed through Docker, we were able to achieve a functioning automated live-stream setup complete with real-time generation capabilities for its intermission radio jockey. The system, under default settings, will play 3 songs before attempting a song-break. During the song-break our model analyzes prompts received online during the previous three musical sets and produces its own original written material targeting the donators thanking them, before reading an ad for an imaginary product and continuing. Our model is told take the persona of a Radio Host living within the by the name of “Antoni Starr”. Fallout 4 Universe Due to budget constraints, Antoni employs a cost-saving strategy. While generating content, there is a 10% chance, limited to once per hour, that his system dynamically pulls and generates a new song-break. This method adds an element of surprise and uniqueness to the show while optimizing production costs for the purpose of this tech demo. All other ad-reads will come from a previously generated grab-bag created during testing. Additionally, due to the channel being so new, we are unable to turn on the subscribers/memberships to be used during announcements. Tech Stack While I have not decided to release my code for this yet, I have decided to talk about the tech stack. As seen from the above image, the tool leveraging various technologies (FFmpeg, WebDAV, ChatGPT, EleventLabs, MongoDB) and the application combines them into a platform for live-stream generation. WebDAV + MongoDB This piece of the tech-stack is here to help record generated content and act as a file-store. The WebxDAV aspect allows us to remotely store the music files and download them at instantiation for the stream. ChatGPT + Eleven Labs These are the workhorses of the generative content. When time to generate a new ad-break we leverage ChatGPT API with our custom prompt to get the next script. Our prompt will be pre-seeded with name/information from stream donators and a random fake product to ad-read. FFmpeg The workhorse of streaming. FFmpeg is responsible for all audio/visual you see on the stream. from the static image overlay, to the encoded video playing on the TV and the audio you hear. FFmpeg is the magic behind it all. HTML/CSS/JavaScript Not seen in the diagram above, there is a management interface to tweak params of the running stream. This allows for the admin to force ad-breaks, tweak ad-break rate algorithm and more. Additionally, as mentioned previously, the entire platform is running off of NodeJS Conclusion We examined the possibility of replacing radio hosts with artificial intelligence and concluded that, given certain conditions, it may indeed be possible to do so. Our findings suggest that AI-powered radio stations would have clear financial advantages over their human counterparts and be capable of producing high-quality content equal to or surpassing that of human DJs. Further consideration should be done to ensure that listeners remain engaged and attuned to the program’s offerings amidst such developments. Overall, while the idea of a completely automated radio station or live-stream, with a dynamic voiced personality, may initially seem farfetched, the reality is that emerging technologies are quickly making the notion feasible and practical. Thus, business leaders must recognize the changing landscape and adapt accordingly before they risk being left behind in an ever evolving marketplace.

A collection of poems and random notes: In sum, swell doggerel Well she used to love me but that's all over now... I quit humming my tune and continued my monologue. For those with the unbridled temerity to inquire of her name, she goes by Simile, Simile Metaphor... She worked at a club downtown. That's where I met her, at "The Hatbox". She was a "dancer", that's what she called it anyway. And it was good. Hell, it was better than good. It was great. Till we emptied the account. Then she split. Took the jewelry too. She was like that. Has anybody seen my baby? Has anyone seen my gal? Tales of heartache and desire. Distrust and lust. She sounded SO sincere. I couldn't help it, I just had to believe, know? Aw crap! Now I'm cryin again. Damn! Sniff. I mean she could be as fine as the rose and just as sweet, but damn, she could be mean as the thorns too. Maybe that was part of it. The idea that I could tame the tough girl. Make her into a lady, know? The hull seemed to tremble just so slightly as the retros fired their quick little bursts, the servos reacting in instants to every stimulus. We were coming down. Down in Territory. Donco was pissed. It was the umpteenth time he'd heard about Simile and my tale gave him unpleasant memories. That way sometimes, know? But hey, he would never SAY he was pissed. Nah. Then I could refuse to listen to HIS monologue, and that simply wasn't gonna happen. Nah. We were kinda honor bound to listen stoically to each other's sad and tawdry refrain. Same repeated sad repartee. This is why we don't date chicks that work at clubs, dance for a living. A Ho is A ho, you know... Ya know? Good riddance! I believe that we are not alone in the universe. I believe there are civilizations out there both more advanced and less sophisticated than ours. But, I also know that there are a LOT of "hoax" videos about UFOs. I just don't think that all these videos show UFOs in the sense of alien craft. Once upon a time I was driving in Kentucky. Long straight stretch of road. This very bright object/light came in from what was to me the left horizon and traversed about halfway across the hemisphere moving incredibly fast. Then it turned 90 degrees. No curving turn. No slowdown. If there are species beyond our ken, their technology will appear as magic. And barring accident I don't think for the most part that we'll know when they arrive(d). If they land in my front yard I may poop in me undies first, but I am nonetheless determined to ask for a ride. You know if there are such advanced species what could they gain from us? Well suppose that they brought "us" here to begin with.
Suppose that propagating their species this way was part of their "program" and that this dispersion, diaspora galactica, is intended to insure survival and gain trade partners, where the trade is to be in ideas, in concepts and in thoughts, not in material objects; that is, once we ascend to that level. IF we ascend to that level... In a dream I saw her, the Jade Lady. She was at the temple. With a snake. They said it was her familiar. I don't know. I ran. But my feet would not move. I was consumed by the snake. In the pit of holy fire I became her consort. Then I awoke. And I have had this fever and chills ever since the dream. What could it be doctor? Take advantage of the machine, USE the machine, make it yield to your advances. But don't let the machine by itself just generate random effects. I am seeking edification about PhotoShop and I've been playing a lot with filters. But what is REALLY the cat's meow is a drawing tablet. You just "draw" except it's on the screen. And it's fast. And forgiving. Oooops! Just UNDO. It appears that most of what I can do with pencil ink or paint can be done on the machine. I peeped some of ur stuff. Don't give up "handmade" on REAL media. But it IS fun. I am grateful for the toys and some talent God gave me. This made me miss the hashhish. The member of Abu'l-Haylukh remained In erection for thirty days, sustained By smoking hashish. Abu'l-Hayjeh deflowered in one night Eighty virgins in a rigid rite, After smoking hashish. Felah the Negro did jerk off his yard For all of a week; hashish kept it up hard. The Negro Maymum, with opiate, Without stopping to ejaculate, Futtered for fifty consecutive days. Allah bepraise him for having fulfilled Such a task! But then, fresh vigor instilled, Obliged to furnish ten days more-- Making sixty days of coition his score-- He fain went on and finished the chore. During this ordeal Maymum, in bed, Smoked what held up his penis head: Hashish! -- Quoted in The Cradle of Erotica, Edwardes & Masters, pg. 96. Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it. Mahatma Gandhi Dalai Lama said "Some people automatically associate morality and altruism with a religious vision of the world. But I believe it is a mistake to think that morality is an attribute only of religion. We can imagine two types of spirituality: one tied to religion, while the other arises spontaneously in the human heart as an expression of love for our neighbors and a desire to do them good." "I cant explain myself, because im not myself you See..."
-alice This song is one of the best ever. Just gives me chills. “Comin Back To me”, Jefferson Airplane The summer had inhaled and held its breath too long
The winter looked the same, as if it never had gone
And through an open window where no curtain hung
I saw you, I saw you, comin' back to me One begins to read between the pages of a look
The shape of sleepy music, and suddenly you're hooked
Through the rain upon the trees, that kisses on the run
I saw you, I saw you, comin' back to me You can't stay and live my way
Scatter my love like leaves in the wind
You always say you want to go away But I know what it always has been, it always has been A transparent dream beneath an occasional sigh
Most of the time I just let it go by
Now I wish it hadn't begun I saw you, yes I saw you, comin' back to me Strolling the hills overlooking the shore
I realize I've been here before
The shadow in the mist could have been anyone I saw you, I saw you, comin' back to me Small things like reasons are put in a jar
Whatever happened to wishes wished on a star?
Was it just something that I made up for fun?
I saw you, I saw you, comin' back to me Word! They lie about marijuana. Tell you pot-smoking makes you unmotivated. Lie! When you're high, you can do everything you normally do, just as well. You just realize that it's not worth the f*cking effort." (Bill Hicks) Real ligion "God has come in different ways that the many might be saved. There are many paths to the gates of Heaven." from the Book of Bob (BoB) 1:1 I cannot find any reference to this or similar phrasing. Therefore I claim it as the first verse in the Book of Bob. Bob has a peculiar take on forgiveness he'd like to share. In the Lord's Prayer we ask for forgiveness for something. In most people's familiar it is trespass. That's because this version came from England, where trespass was one of the worst transgressions.
In other traditions its our indebtedness, from Europe, where monetary debt was not good. We ask for forgiveness as we forgive others. But here's the rub: if you cut me I can forgive you or not as I choose. But if you cut Jack, only Jack and God can forgive you. I cannot forgive you for cutting Jack. In fact, if I PRESUME to forgive you for cutting Jack, I am committing hubris.
Peace&OneLove! For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say 'No' to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.
~~ Titus 2:11-14
Finding the good, doing the good not to get into heaven, but because of the joy in having already gotten my ticket.
This phrase, "For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men." is and holds one of the most important concepts about my belief system. In my mind "to all men" doesn't mean just those who accept Christ as their savior. And somebody said "God has come in different ways that the many might be saved." And this doesn't contradict the notion that some may not come unto the Father except by Jesus. My Father sends whom He will to every man. And if He comes for you, however He may appear, you'd best accept the gift. I'd guess that perspective is not altogether acceptable to some. LikeYeah! "Shrooms" as the popular phrase goes is a very nice high. Now they are experimenting with psilocybin for mental illness, with Ritalin being used as the control drug for some of the subjects. Now Ritalin have you seeing people in the trees. One of the few drugs that provoked paranoia in the LabRat. My limited experience indicates that there is a tendency for lingering aspects of the trip. I'd probably gobble a handful if they were in front of me. In me old age I used to wash em down with beer. Ah well... You can make your little head do amazing tricks, and it isn't that difficult. Some tricks, like associations, may seem contrived but after you have done this a few times it becomes background process, so you don't have to focus on the remembering so much. My House And my house shall have places to lie, perchance then to nap and to dream.
In my house, I shall know heaven. Roly Poly, tickle my holey There were four old whores of Baltimore,
Drinking beer and wine,
The topic of conversation was,
"Mine is bigger than thine." Chorus : Roly Poly, tickle my holey, smell of of my slimey flue,
Then drag your nuts across my guts,
I'm one of the whorey crew. The first old whore from Baltimore said,
"Mine's as big as the air,
The birds fly in, the birds fly out,
And never tickle a hair." Midnight sweat. Soaking wet.
Worst one yet.
Can't forget.

is that it has all been bought and sold Logins are fascinating! So let's consider the idea of the Magic Link (ML). A user wants to login to your site or app using an ML. The first part of the ML protocol involves the user's request to do an ML login. Does a user want to use an ML, and if so how do they let us know that? Let's assume the user has to request an ML login to initiate the protocol, though you could just send ML's to all your clients for say an ad campaign. So for example to request an ML a user could provide an Email or an SMS address, or if the system preregisters users perhaps their user name, maybe even an ID or address for a connected key fob device or special host. This request for an ML could be a user entry or automata provided. The second part of the protocol is our response or reply to an ML request. To respond to the user's request for an ML we need some address or means of contacting the user to provide or deliver that ML (or other info, say an error message) to them. Do we even know who they are, or for that matter do we care beyond the simple contact information needed to send the ML? grammatically speaking for f*ck's sake The singular form of the apostrophe has an implied yet not explicit plurality for the possessor f*ck. So while the textual expression is singular there is an embodiment of plurality that can not be overlooked. This is frequently an issue in the interpretation of idiomatic speech or expressions. ☺ the cowboy Now babe don't come all undone
