So it recognizes nautical themes, but not the specific song. It's not good with songs, is it?
Input:
How long must we singSuggestion:
How long must we sing our song, O God, and long, so that no more tears may fall? God, let us stand by your sacred promise, and let your Word be ever our refuge against this day."The first person who said aloud a word that was forbidden and was not to be said, was immediately set free.
So it is also with those people whose souls were separated from the body, on receiving a new soul on the first day which was forbidden, but who on a certain day said to their own self, "I am free; I know that I will live and be happy."
And the Lord in so saying commanded His people, in the presence of one another for forty days, to pray to God on the Sabbath day, as they said their prayers in all the assemblies:
"Remember, O Lord, that this day we are one people; I have become the Lord of all, and you are the Lord of me. Remember me, and forgive all that is past. Remember me, O Lord, at this hour."
OK, if it's going to go all psalm-y on me... how about this?
Input:
The Lord is my shepherd. I shall notSuggestion:
The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want but he will, and I shall not be afraid. And there is no fear in him. Then the birds of the air came down to meet him. And he said to them, "Do not be afraid of anything, for nothing will overtake you because of Me." And the birds of the air took him to their nests; and they brought him up into the house."And he said to His disciples, "Go and tell this people about the kingdom of heaven, as He told them yesterday."
So He went forth from there to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, to the Jordan, and He sat down on the banks of the river; and His disciples came to Him.
And Jesus said to them, "It is easy for heaven and earth to pass away, but one thing is impossible: what is man? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor
Hmm. At least it completed the next word correctly before wandering off into la-la land. Well, as long as we're on the subject of shepherds...
Input:
I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favoriteSuggestion:
I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite part. I know there are a few people out there that have already read this so I may be getting into this topic again but I don't actually have anything new to say. All I'm going to say is that I had a blast playing as Commander Shepard in this game and believe me when I say this, I know I'm not going to get more of a kick out of it. I can only say that if you are looking for a great Mass Effect 3 story, Commander Shepard is the story. If you are looking for a great story, Mass Effect 3 is the story. I know I said to myself at one point that my favorite part of the game would be the "The Future" mission but it's not true. At this point, I can say that I think the best part about Mass Effect is getting to see some of the world that this game is trying to make. In fact, after I finished the story I would say that I'm a very big fan of the universe that the game is trying to build. There are plenty of other things that were
So it knows enough context to be aware we're talking about Mass Effect, but can't get the famous quote? Let's try a different famous video game quote.

Suggestion:
The cake is a bit too sweet, but not too sweet. Even though I tried to use a little more sugar, I still have a little too much of it, the result is not much sweetener. The almond cake will be good for an extra dessert that's delicious, but not too sweet.
This recipe was inspired by the one by Miele Chef Miele. The recipe is in the section on achai spice.
- Coconut oil for buttercream
Dry coconut butter works well for the base of the buttercream. Instead of adding the buttery powder, you can substitute it with a little bit of coconut oil. You can substitute the coconut oil instead of a little bit of ghee or butter. A little bit of coconut oil in the buttercream would be nice (for taste), but I only use the extra for flavour. You might be able to reduce the coconut oil by adding some water, but I don't feel safe on that.
This coconut oil is an excellent replacement for butter if you need more fat than by using

This was a triumph. I'm making a note here: "A triumph," is a common phrase used in the world of wrestling. It's also a word often used to describe an athlete, especially a female. When I first heard this phrase, even my mind went blank; when I heard him say it, I felt it. I had felt it when I saw him wrestle, but never as deep a feeling as I had after watching an Iron Man 3 performance. For him, the Iron Man 3 presentation was an extension of the wrestling match itself.
The video itself is actually kind of beautiful. As the scene unfolds, the camera moves across a wide screen. The action is moving in slow motion, with each frame in an instant. The camera zooms in as if in slow motion. The effect is the perfect representation of the way movies work: each frame is an individual event.
The way the crowd reacted to the event was a bit surprising to me. It seemed as though the whole crowd was reacting to that last shot. It made sense and seemed natural, but when I watched it in 3D, I had a

I put a time cube quote on it:
When the Sun shines upon Earth, 2 – major Time points are created on opposite sides of Earth – known as Midday and Midnight. As Earth moves through the Sun, the Sun moves through the Earth through the Earth's orbit. If the Sun is on your right, you'll be positioned in Time on the left of the Sun in Midday and Midnight. This is the same way on Earth, which is also what happens on the Earth – but in the case of our solar system, which has 4 major Time points, you'll experience 3 of them at the same Time point, and so you'll be in the right time zone when it's time for you to leave.
The "Day" is defined as the time point on the Sun at which your position at the Sun is at the correct latitude and longitude. The "Night" is the time point in the Earth's orbit where you will be at the correct longitude and latitude. As we move through the Sun's orbit around the Earth, the Sun moves through the Earth's orbit and we rotate with it. The Earth revolves around the Sun and the

Putting part of a video game intro results in what looks like crossover fanfiction
Long ago, the War of the Magi reduced the world to a scorched wasteland, and the only remaining magi had to do what they felt they had to do—sink into the magus underground. The only reason that the High Holy Grail War had been possible at all was because the people involved were magi from a distant branch of magi. In other words, they had the power not to kill their opponents, but rather, to destroy them.
It was something which no one among magi could resist. However—
"The way you guys go about it…it's a little rough…"
"Well, I would say that if you just go about it with that, then you'll become a Magus."
Slytherin muttered. She was right. As one could see, Magi were a special type of magi, a special type of magi who had the ability to cast the summoning magic by the Holy Grail, which could then use such summoning magics to perform the other parts of Holy Grail War, whether it involved sending forth armies or sending out a Holy Grail for the sole purpose of destroying

The human race, to which so many of my readers belong, has been playing at children's games from the beginning, and will probably do it till the end, which is a nuisance for the few people who grow up. I am not trying to deny that the game is useful for an active life, but I have no interest in the games because they are playing children, who play for amusement.
I have no interest in the games because children play them.
I have no interest in the games because children play games.
Children are supposed to be free creatures who have to express themselves, even when it upsets adults. In this respect, children are like adults. They have their own individual personalities and beliefs, and are supposed to be able to do that. The games are in no way intended to make that happen, and there is no reason for such a thing to be a concern of adults on some level. It was an absurd game of "Who will say something first?", but that is an entirely human behavior, because everyone (as well as babies) has a different definition of that word.

If you are sexually fertile before you have an erection, but have not yet achieved an erection, you cannot have an erection.

The best type of bacon custard is made with bacon and custard, which is one of my favorite ways to mix up a good meal. For this recipe I used a mix of pork sausage and bacon pieces since I really wanted some pork flavor. I also added a small handful of sliced red peppers for a tasty garnish. You can make any type of bacon-creamy custard with this simple recipe, but it is best when I use bacon pieces.
I first poured the bacon-cream mixture in the bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish. I then filled this dish with about three-quarters of a quart of plain yogurt and two-thirds of a pint of hot chicken stock.

Bacon? It's in your mouth when you wake up, but it's not the only thing you ingest when you're thirsty. If you do this, you'll want to eat it, too.
This is what happens. An entire bottle of Mountain Dew goes into your mouth, and if you're the type of person who only drinks when drunk, it would be the perfect way to start your day – it's a light thirst suppressant that you could use to knock back a few glasses on the way out of the house.
To be completely fair, there's also a couple of downsides to making sure you're getting your recommended intake of nutrition. When you're trying to lose weight, you need to get plenty of calories into your body. However, that will cause the metabolism of your body to slow down. Also, Mountain Dew contains high amounts of sugar. If you eat something high in fructose and low in fiber (i.e. sugary fruit), you'll go hungry eventually and will start to eat more than you need to. These two factors combined won

** When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary to**
When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary to resolve differences of doctrine and practice, the Council, after a full and complete discussion and deliberation, will take the decision of the whole body to approve such resolution. For this is the only effective and sufficient method of applying the law of the Church in practice and for the purposes for which the decree of the Cappadocians was promulgated."
The Council decrees the same concerning all bishops in Syria and Antioch. The decree of the Council confirms, on the very same text as in the case of the Greeks, the decision of Constantinople in the year 486 that "no bishop should in his diocese be subject to any other bishop, unless these two bishops should be present.
And if the bishop is subject to another bishop because he is not subject to the bishop of the diocese, the bishop of the diocese may take upon him, subject to the judgment of the other bishops, what belongs to him." This is repeated after the Council, by a decree of the same Council, that "there is no authority in a bishop without the consent of two
Hmm... the Transformer seems to really enjoy bringing things around to the subject of religion. Let's see what happens if we start with religion?
There are three essential questions to answer: where did I come from, why am I here, and
There are three essential questions to answer: where did I come from, why am I here, and why are you here?
Now, there is nothing wrong with doing both of those things at once. But that approach often leads to more mental slumps than productive results.
Here are eight mental shortcuts that will increase your chances of getting from place to place quickly and efficiently.
- Focus on the destination
The first mental shortcut for getting from A to B is simply to pay attention to where you are going as you navigate from A to B. The trick is to be aware of where you are headed by being specific about where you are.
Take for example, a simple strategy: When you reach a destination, pick up the phone and call your parents. Immediately, immediately ask them for permission to go to the destination, even if you haven't had a chance to do anything to acquire a permission stamp yet. I will admit that it takes a little bit of finesse to pull off, but sometimes when you need that extra second to say bye, or just need to say good bye, it's best to take that extra moment.
OK, that just produces gibberish. Let's try again with something a bit more explicit.
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death: and Hell followed with him, and they called the place Styx. And the horses of Hell followed him; and his minstrels brought him songs of unrighteousness and wrath. So was there no rest day or night for the horses of Hell until they reached their destination.
"Then the souls of the righteous went forth unto their own place, for the wicked went not up unto the judgment seat: and the souls of the wicked were cast into the lake of burning sulfur: and the souls of the righteous into the pool of boiling sulphur. This, too, was for ever."
The author of the Gospel, not content with the simple narrative in the Gospels, goes on to write:
"And the devils which dwell in the lake of burning sulfur went down into it, to dwell there; and their worm dieth not, but a new heart groweth in their heart: and they have power over all the birds of the air, and every beast of the earth, and over the fowl of the air. They are
Wow! I think this is the first time I've ever seen it actually complete a famous quote correctly... before devolving into the usual rambling weirdness.
Let's try a bit of fictitious religion, then...
Under the Light and by my hope of salvation and
Under the Light and by my hope of salvation and of a good life, I shall not seek for myself, nor seek after my enemy, though I should be able to do so with much pleasure; for in the first place I know I did nothing to myself; for I found no means by which the wicked could be delivered, save the sword: besides, I was bound together with my wife with cords of iron and chains and in an atmosphere of fear, and all these things were in their power, for they knew not what they were doing.
"But if you would have me return again, give a little money to my companions; this will satisfy them, for they are not free. So I shall go again, when I go, I will not return to you until I find a man willing to pay me three hundred ducats; for my companions may do with me as I wish. Farewell; take my advice, and let me leave you forever: the next time, when I go, I will not go without your leaving me."

@Vixen I'm not sure what molecular structure that's supposed to be describing, but there is an actual super-strong substance that's about as transparent as glass and made up mostly of aluminum, that any material engineer would love to get their hands on a formula for mass-producing in industrial quantities: corundum, AKA sapphire.

Now I'm trying to reconcile the term "glass" with "metal," because glasses are by definition non-crystalline and metals are usually highly-crystalline. On top of that, glass is colloquially considered transparent, but the loose electronic structure of metals pretty much makes it impossible for a bulk metal to be transparent.
There is alumina/corundum/sapphire/whatever you want to call it, but it's a crystalline form of covalent aluminum oxide which makes it a ceramic. It is neither a glass nor a metal.

@mott555
Now I'm trying to reconcile the term "glass" with "metal," because glasses are by definitionNow I'm trying to reconcile the term "glass" with "metal," because glasses are by definition plastic. They're light and have no structure, right? But there was a time when a glass of water looked like glass. It was thin and opaque. Because they were only glass, they were also water droplets. Then in the '30s, this thin surface (like the thin metal on a car's frame) was treated with a rubber coating, and the "bottle" itself became a hard glass bottle. But the surface of the bottle remained the same--and so did the droplets in the glass. A lot of the droplets remain there today. And now, you have metal. They're still glass, but there's a layer of metal on top of the surface of the glass. Glass is not a "water bottle"; it has glass and metal added in.
It just keeps doubling down on the

Well, as it turns out, having an overall greater ability to focus, in particular over a longer periods of time, is the difference between staying productive and being a total non-entity.
If you've read this far into the article, you probably want to know that this is why I'm using an iPad today.

It's always amused me just how much we in America have come to define the standard sound of a Scottish accent by a voice done by a Canadian actor.

"You could save 15% in 15 minutes by switching to":
You could save 15% in 15 minutes by switching to a 10 kWh battery pack.
That's the main reason more consumers are getting rid of the old lithium-ion batteries, and so have a better backup – an average of 15% is savings.
The battery pack could be a good alternative to the typical 18.8 kWh battery pack in EVs. A pack with 16 GB would require around 9.5 kWh of battery cell power to move the car and its load, or about 20% more battery power than the current 18.8 kWh cell, but the pack would last longer since it would take fewer cycles to charge and discharge. Another reason for more EVs selling is increased manufacturing costs.
There are some serious issues to overcome in improving a battery pack. Lithium-ion batteries are not very strong, so any improvements in their strength will create considerable weight increases. Current-generation batteries do not have the same high energy density as the 18nm transistors and other technologies. But they can be made much stronger by reducing current density – but there's no guarantee that doing so will make the new battery pack more

Who would've thought a dumb typo would be so entertaining?
"Oh shitm," shouted Phoenix as Gumshoe suddenly started vomiting. He had the worst feeling in his stomach, the worst feeling in his stomach, and he had the worst feeling in his stomach.
"What the fuck?" The detective muttered, looking down at himself in horror.
"Oh shitm!"
"What the hell?"
"Shitm!"
"What the fuck?" Phoenix asked, staring at the vomit.
Gumshoe just stared blankly.
"Fuck!" he said, and dropped his phone.
"Fuck!" said Phoenix.
He picked it up, looking at the screen.
Gumshoe stared at the screen, as if he couldn't believe what he saw.
"How do I fucking describe this?" he asked, his voice shaking. "I've never seen anything like it."
"It's a fucking dream," Phoenix said.
Gumshoe shook his head
