![]() I guess if you make it easy to leave, people loiter around. TD's and Jake's approach of transparency and full anytime export (coming from an abundance mentality) shows a certain largeness of heart that I have grown to trust. The inability to Export ones tasks out of Todoist in a useful manner was the real bummer. The Todoist Android mobile app is however well designed. I found the desktop/web layout wasted a lot of screen space (unlike the rich detail of TD). I too was seduced into installing and having a one week affair with Todoist, mainly because of the colors and smooth integration with other programs. Very timely reviews/comments on Todoist vs Toodledo. * Toodledo - much more powerful, flexible, and helps me be more effective and efficient. * Todoist - great graphics and loved Karma score It also very easy to transfer them back into Toodledo at the right time with the multiple add function - lacking in Todoist. I can export in Toodledo in under 15 minutes, have a clean action list, and keep my ideas, dreams, someday, maybe out of my daily/weekly reviews but still have something useful for those deeper reviews later. I could email/print a list in Todoist but it is totally unusable except to scan down. It is easy and I have them in excel/google sheets to sort delete etc. I will routinely export my list into a separate list to be reviewed quarterly/annually and only have the truly active items in Toodledo. YOU CANNOT EXPORT OUT OF TODOIST! That ultimately was the deal breaker. Many are ideas and someday/maybe items that very quickly clog up the reviews and daily action. It helps me find the important things to do. ![]() I tried playing around with flags and sorts but Toodledo was just much more powerful to help in that area. Todoist is very date driven, which is very anti-GTD. I also like Toodledo feature of importance, it makes it really easy to pick a few items and add a star to get done today. Most of the time I don't use them all but when I do, I want them, and they help me. I use the various fields that Toodledo has to help organize things. Todoist was very limited and didn't have the flexibility that I've come to enjoy with Toodledo. Todoist looks great and has some good graphics but I'm more interested in a tool. Naturally you couldn't call it karma but it would be a great feature to have. It is a feature that I would love to see incorporated into Toodledo with the information and graphs it won't be hard - I've thought of doing my own with exporting into excel but decided it wasn't worth my effort. I liked having that as a driving force to increase it each day or week. I got almost to a 10,000 score with Karma which is what originally hooked me in Todoist. I keep my subscription to Toodledo because I wasn't sure about the change. The last year I've being using Todoist after several years of Toodledo. I wanted to share my experience of using Todoist and why I've come back to Toodledo.

"When we draw near in prayer and with an open heart to the Scriptures inspired by the Spirit, we let him speak and act within us," the Pope emphasised that “His salutary memory reminds us of what counts in life and that “nothing is impossible with God”. "In our own day, which is not an easy time for faith, we are united in the same confidence that the Apostle sought to transmit, as we place our hope in the God of consolation," the Pope said. The Disciples of Christ is a US and Canadian-based Protestant movement for Christian Unity.ĭialogue has been ongoing since 1977 and is in its sixth phase, scheduled to continue until 2027 on the theme "the ministry of the Spirit". This was reiterated by Pope Francis who received members of the International Commission for Dialogue between the Catholic Church and the Disciples of Christ in audience. Beginning with John XXIII and continuing through the papacy of John Paul II and our current pope, the movement to come together in full Christian unity has been underway.The Holy Spirit is the "memory and guide who opens new and unforeseen trails where we thought that the way was closed or cut off". Historical breaks and schisms have left us fractured, with the Eastern Orthodox churches no longer in full unity with Roman Catholicism. The Catholic Church is united under the leadership of the Bishop of Rome, the Pope. ![]() John’s gospel reminds us, “The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me.” (John 17:22-23) Unity is essential for the followers of Jesus. To this ordinary teaching the faithful "are to adhere to it with religious assent" which, though distinct from the assent of faith, is nonetheless an extension of it. (CCC 891)ĭivine assistance is also given to the successors of the apostles, teaching in communion with the successor of Peter, and, in a particular way, to the bishop of Rome, pastor of the whole Church, when, without arriving at an infallible definition and without pronouncing in a "definitive manner," they propose in the exercise of the ordinary Magisterium a teaching that leads to better understanding of Revelation in matters of faith and morals. When the Church through its supreme Magisterium proposes a doctrine "for belief as being divinely revealed," and as the teaching of Christ, the definitions "must be adhered to with the obedience of faith." This infallibility extends as far as the deposit of divine Revelation itself. "The Roman Pontiff, head of the college of bishops, enjoys this infallibility in virtue of his office, when, as supreme pastor and teacher of all the faithful – who confirms his brethren in the faith – he proclaims by a definitive act a doctrine pertaining to faith or morals…The infallibility promised to the Church is also present in the body of bishops when, together with Peter's successor, they exercise the supreme Magisterium," above all in an Ecumenical Council. The permanence of the office of the Pope is essential to the everlasting nature of the church. When Peter is given the “keys to the kingdom,” Christ is establishing the divine office of leadership over the church. In the Acts of the Apostles, we come to know Peter is the head of the early church. In the latter instance, without the action of the head, the bishops are not able to act as a College: this is clear from the concept of "College." This hierarchical communion of all the bishops with the Supreme Pontiff is certainly firmly established in Tradition. It is clear throughout that it is a question of the bishops acting in conjunction with their head, never of the bishops acting independently of the Pope. We believe that the Pope is the successor of Peter, and his bishops are successors of the Twelve Apostles. The Pope, as Bishop of Rome, is the chief pastor and shepherd of the whole Church. As Vicar of Jesus Christ, the Pope governs the Catholic Church as its supreme head. If you’re unfamiliar with the rules, it will take you a while to learn the ropes, and that might get tedious when looking at the graphics.

From a visual point of view, by today’s standards it doesn’t look very good. Players pit their wits against the computer and there are lots of hints and tips provided along the way that are designed to help first time players get into the game and hone their skills. Single Deck Pinochle is a generic card game in most aspects. Simply Pinochle is a classic card game that has been computerised especially for solo gamers. On the downside, there are no video tutorials. It explains everything you need to know in detail. The rules of the game are the standard ones but since there is a lot to them, you better read the in-game help file. Single Deck Pinochle is both a game of skill and luck, but it mostly comes down to the later. You meld your cards in sequences or groups immediately after winning a trick and before drawing from the stock pile. You need to bet big and hope that your cards come through for you. Melds and Tricks The object of the game is to score points by melding cards or winning tricks.

It doesn’t matter which team is trumping, that is what happens. My issues: 1 - when the opponent is trumping a suit, the computer continues to play back the suit that is being trumped, allowing the opposite team to score more points, which could potentially cause the bidding team to be set or miss their bid. ![]() I would like to know if anyone else has noticed these issues: Patrick Lee Updated Augat 11:52 AM Start your weekend off properly with one of our most popular classic game titles: Pinochle Pinochle is a trick-taking game for up to four.

I have been playing this game for almost a year now. For instance bid is 65 your partner says 75 that means he has meld to back you up so take the bid if you got a good hand but not a lot of meld.

Shakespeare made great use of what people knew and what they didn’t know. Take the time to read the plays aloud, and you will gain new insights into the language of Shakespeare. A play is a dynamic thing where all the action takes place on a stage, instead of taking place inside your head as when reading a novel. The words of Shakespeare’s plays are meant to be spoken aloud. This object before verb structure is found in Germanic languages, and the inverted sentence structure reflects the English language’s Germanic roots. Translation: I sent the nurse at nine o’clock she promised to return in a half an hour.Shakespeare: The clock struck nine when I did send the nurse In half an hour she promised to return.Translation: He looks like an overly flattering tavern keeper.Shakespeare: How like a fawning publican he looks.Translation: Stop singing and leave quickly.Shakespeare: Break off thy song, and haste thee quick away.Shakespeare quite frequently wrote sentences in inverted, or backwards, order: Students of Shakespeare often have trouble understanding the sentence structure in the plays. This is why many words made rhyming sense back in this time period, such as love and prove, which make no rhyming sense today. ![]() There were also regional differences in dialect during this era. The Great Vowel Shift was the transformation of the old vowel sounds of Early Modern English into the new vowel sounds (a,e,i,o,u) that we know today in Modern English.īecause of the difference in vowel sounds during the 16th century, the accents of Elizabethan England were radically different from the accents of modern British English speakers. Shakepeare took advantage of this situation by using a lot of wordplay that incorporated the Great Vowel Shift within many of his famous puns. Early modern English was evolving into the language that we speak now, Modern English. Part of the genius of Shakespeare was that he was writing at a time when the language was rapidly changing. Learn to get the gist of Shakespeare by appreciating his word play and the syntactical (word order) differences of Early Modern English. Students of the sonnets and plays of Shakespeare often dread reading his works because of the language barrier between Early Modern English and Modern English. Take the fear out of Shakespeare by learning a few generalities of Early Modern English – the language of the Renaissance. |
