" David Amidon of PopMatters noted, "Mostly, Christian aTunde Adjuah continues to emphasize Scott's apparent interest in the qualities of post-rock performers like Mogwai and Do Make Say Think. While his trumpet no doubt plays lead throughout the album, it's often hard to avoid getting the impression this time around that Matthew Stevens has earned equal sway within the band.

He looks > both at times; but I believe he is old, for from what I hear he is only two > years younger than you are [the rumor was correct].

Jefferson and Madison's approach was not the only one taken in the eighteenth century. Jefferson's Statute of Religious Freedom was drafted in opposition to a bill, chiefly supported by Patrick Henry, which would permit any Virginian to belong to any denomination, but which would require him to belong to some denomination and pay taxes to support it. Similarly, the Constitution of Massachusetts originally provided that "no subject shall be hurt, molested, or restrained, in his person, liberty, or estate, for worshipping God in the manner and season most agreeable to the dictates of his own conscience... provided he doth not disturb the public peace, or obstruct others in their religious worship" (Article II), but also that: Since, in practice, this meant that the decision of who was taxable for a particular religion rested in the hands of the selectmen, usually Congregationalists, this system was open to abuse. It was abolished in 1833.
" Jon Dolan, giving the album four stars at Rolling Stone, judged that "Church's well-observed writing and warm, generous wit ground the album, particularly on two examples of the small-town vignettes he does so well". Rating the album a seven out of ten from Spin, Jonathan Bernstein said that it is a "small shame, then, that he chose what might have been the safest move: making what is sure to become the most agreeable, least controversial record of his career." Jon Caramanica, writing a review at The New York Times, said: "The album, a love letter to his influences, is the gentlest of Mr. Church't releases, the one that least wears his rowdy tendencies on its sleeve." Reviewing the album for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Erik Ernst felt that "Church is country music's weird kid, who bucked the industry's expectations to chase cookie- cutter radio hits and defiantly forged his voice as an innovative, authentic songwriter.
The "Essay" mentioned above contains also the recommendation that divisions of coins, weights and measures be based on 8 instead of 10. "Whereas reason and convenience indicate to us a uniform standard for all quantities; which I shall call the Georigan standard; and that is only to divide every integer in each species into eight equal parts, and every part again into 8 real or imaginary particles, as far as is necessary. For tho' all nations count universally by tens (originally occasioned by the number of digits on both hands) yet 8 is a far more complete and commodious number; since it is divisible into halves, quarters, and half quarters (or units) without a fraction, of which subdivision ten is uncapable...." In the treatise on Octave computation Jones concluded: "Arithmetic by Octaves seems most agreeable to the Nature of Things, and therefore may be called Natural Arithmetic in Opposition to that now in Use, by Decades; which may be esteemed Artificial Arithmetic."See H.R. Phalen, "Hugh Jones and Octave Computation," The American Mathematical Monthly 56 (August–September 1949): 461–65, at 462.
Lord Holland said of Fitzwilliam: > With little talent and less acquirements, he was, throughout his life, one > of the most considerable men in the country and a striking instance of that > most agreeable truth—that courage and honesty in great situations more than > supply the place of policy or talent. It was not his relationship to Lord > Rockingham, though no doubt an advantage, nor his princely fortune, though a > yet greater, which conferred the sort of importance he enjoyed for half a > century in this country. He derived it more directly and more certainly from > his goodness and generosity, and from the combination of gentleness and > courage which distinguished his amiable and unpretending character. Such > unblemished purity and such unobtrusive intrepidity, such generosity of > feeling, firmness of purpose, and tenderness of heart, meeting in one of > high station and princely fortune, commanded the affection and confidence of > the public; and Lord Fitzwilliam enjoyed them, beyond even those of his own > class who united much greater reach of understanding and more assiduity of > business to superior personal accomplishments and advantages.
