Alfred (Dvořák)
Alfred is a heroic opera in three acts by the Czech composer Antonín Dvořák. It was Dvořák's first opera and the only one he composed to a German text. The libretto, by Karl Theodor Korner, had already been set by Friedrich von Flotow (as Alfred der Große) and is based on the story of the English king Alfred the Great. Composed in 1870, Alfred was never performed during Dvořák's lifetime. It received its premiere (in Czech translation) at the City Theatre, Olomouc on 10 December 1938.
The opera was performed for the first time with its original German libretto on 17 September 2014, in Prague.

Alfred (mobile app)
Alfred is a free mobile app that turns Android devices into home security cameras. Alfred provides an alternative way for building home security systems by re-purposing spare phones and tablets. With old phones and the app, users have live video feed from the camera device. The most common use cases include baby care, senior care, and pet care.
Alfred supports an unlimited number of camera and viewer devices as long as users log in with the same Gmail e-mail address. In addition to streaming encrypted video, Alfred gives users motion detection videos when they are not watching, and sends them push alerts.
As mobile devices are more portable than IP cameras, Alfred can be set up easily in a mug, or with tape. A photo album collecting various ways of setup can be found on its Facebook page.

Mark (dinghy)
The Mark is a single-hander class of small sailing dinghy. The design probably first appeared in the 1960s, at about the same time as the Laser, but never took off as a popular racing class. The Mark is 12 feet (3.7 m) in length, with forward and side buoyancy compartments. A 19 feet (5.8 m) free standing rotating mast stepped far forward in the front buoyancy compartment supports a mainsail.
Gospel of Mark
The Gospel According to Mark (Greek: τὸ κατὰ Μᾶρκον εὐαγγέλιον, to kata Markon euangelion), the second book of the New Testament, is one of the four canonical gospels and the three synoptic gospels. It was traditionally thought to be an epitome (summary) of Matthew, which accounts for its place as the second gospel in the Bible, but most scholars now regard it as the earliest of the gospels. Most modern scholars reject the tradition which ascribes it to Mark the Evangelist, the companion of Peter, and regard it as the work of an unknown author working with various sources including collections of miracle stories, controversy stories, parables, and a passion narrative.
Mark tells of the ministry of Jesus from his baptism by John the Baptist to his death and burial and the discovery of the empty tomb – there is no genealogy or birth narrative, nor, in the original ending at chapter 16, any post-resurrection appearances. It portrays Jesus as a heroic man of action, an exorcist, healer and miracle worker. Jesus is also the Son of God, but he keeps his identity secret, concealing it in parables so that even the disciples fail to understand. All this is in keeping with prophecy, which foretold the fate of the messiah as Suffering Servant. The gospel ends, in its original version, with the discovery of the empty tomb, a promise to meet again in Galilee, and an unheeded instruction to spread the good news of the resurrection.

Tomorrows Rain
Daylight breaks and im all alone
this big bed, in our old home
is empty
Somethings missing, but its not me
pictures still framed so i can see
their memories
of a time that used to be
now its all just history
you broke my heart into a million pieces
said goodbye for all the wrong reasons
think of other things, but i feel the pain
and im already ready, for tomorrows rain
fix some breakfast, make an extra plate
this big table where you once ate
is haunting
lay on down and i stare above
this big couch where we made love
reminds me
of a time that used to be
now its all just history
you broke my heart into a million pieces
said goodbye for all the wrong reasons
think of other things, but i feel the pain
and im already ready, for tomorrows rain
well ive moved on, now the skies are blue
talk to god, and he told me to
go out more, and meet new friends
find you a women youl love till the end
and i cant forget all those sleepless nights
thinking of you i stayed up and cried
remembering the fun we had then
but ill never forget......hmmmmm
when you broke my heart into a million pieces
said goodbye for all the wrong reasons
think of other things, but i feel the pain
you crushed my heart, and you shattered our dreams
ruined the plans for a family
and i dont think i could ever feel the same
so im already ready
yea im already ready
