Titan considers it an unequivocal privilege to be affiliated with an organization which has an extensive and established history of furnishing the security needs for the Canadian residential and business market. Protectron was incorporated in 1988 and is headquartered in Montreal, Quebec. It employs a staff of over nine hundred industry professionals and is responsible for the monitoring of over three hundred and fifty thousand subscribers throughout Canada from its four monitoring centers located in Montreal, Quebec City, Ottawa and Vancouver all of which are certified by Underwriters' Laboratories of Canada (ULC). Titan Alarm is looking forward with great anticipation to contributing to the extraordinary foundation and opportunities which Reliance Protectron has afforded through its innovative dealer program. Titan’s founder, Graham Woods, has over seven years of industry experience, the majority of which constitutes leading sales teams producing record sales figures particularly in the Canadian provinces. Approximately 300 of the sales representatives and technicians who worked for Graham at other security organizations have enthusiastically followed him to Titan Alarm to continue to benefit from his unique and inspirational leadership. Titan plans to operate in all provinces of Canada with the exception of Quebec. In addition to introducing an exceptional sales force, Titan will also employ a superior support staff to insure that its customers receive optimal customer service in every respect. Titan has also partnered with GE to deliver a state-of-the-art security system to its customers. The Reliance Protectron name is virtually synonymous with security in Canada as this organization purchased VOXCOM Security Systems in 2007 enabling it to expand its customer base exponentially. There can be no question that Reliance Protectron is an organization of unequivocal stability and the name “Reliance” is most definitely appropriate. Titan feels incredibly confident that it is able to rely upon the strength, history and solid industry reputation of Reliance Protectron as it embarks upon this exciting new partnership.

I examined the poets, and I look on them as people whose talent overawes both themselves and others, people who present themselves as wise men and are taken as such, when they are nothing of the sort. From poets, I moved to artists. No one was more ignorant about the arts than I; no one was more convinced that artists possessed really beautiful secrets. However, I noticed that their condition was no better than that of the poets and that both of them have the same misconceptions. Because the most skillful among them excel in their specialty, they look upon themselves as the wisest of men. In my eyes, this presumption completely tarnished their knowledge. As a result, putting myself in the place of the oracle and asking myself what I would prefer to be — what I was or what they were, to know what they have learned or to know that I know nothing — I replied to myself and to the god: I wish to remain who I am. We do not know — neither the sophists, nor the orators, nor the artists, nor I— what the True, the Good, and the Beautiful are. But there is this difference between us: although these people know nothing, they all believe they know something; whereas, I, if I know nothing, at least have no doubts about it. As a result, all this superiority in wisdom which the oracle has attributed to me reduces itself to the single point that I am strongly convinced that I am ignorant of what I do not know.

Should I, too, prefer the title of 'non-Jewish Jew'? For some time, I would have identified myself strongly with the attitude expressed by Rosa Luxemburg, writing from prison in 1917 to her anguished friend Mathilde Wurm: What do you want with these special Jewish pains? I feel as close to the wretched victims of the rubber plantations in Putamayo and the blacks of Africa with whose bodies the Europeans play ball… I have no special corner in my heart for the ghetto: I am at home in the entire world, where there are clouds and birds and human tears. An inordinate proportion of the Marxists I have known would probably have formulated their own views in much the same way. It was almost a point of honor not to engage in 'thinking with the blood,' to borrow a notable phrase from D.H. Lawrence, and to immerse Jewishness in other and wider struggles. Indeed, the old canard about 'rootless cosmopolitanism' finds a perverse sort of endorsement in Jewish internationalism: the more emphatically somebody stresses that sort of rhetoric about the suffering of others, the more likely I would be to assume that the speaker was a Jew. Does this mean that I think there are Jewish 'characteristics'? Yes, I think it must mean that.

I’ve got a question for you… Are you the person who you thought you’d be by now? I know I am not. The fact is that life may not be what you thought it would be by now (If It is, I congratulate you & applaud you) You may feel stuck in a job you don’t like, not making enough money, jobless, or maybe you are in a bad relationship/marriage, or unhappy because you are out of shape…but don’t let that get you down. The key is 2 focus on what you have (Health,Fam,friends etc) instead of what you don’t have. And also in the things that you have done (Finished a Race-College/Got that Diploma/Raise a Family etc) Instead of the things you haven’t done. yet IF where you are now, it’s not where you want to be…know that where you’re going is far more important than where you are now or where you’ve been. Forgive yourself, Accept the current situation & MOVE ON, knowing that from now on you will focus your time & energy on the possibilities & opportunities that lie ahead 4 you in the near future.

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.


Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

You have lost your reason and taken the wrong path. You have taken lies for truth, and hideousness for beauty. You would marvel if, owing to strange events of some sorts, frogs and lizards suddenly grew on apple and orange trees instead of fruit, or if roses began to smell like a sweating horse; so I marvel at you who exchange heaven for earth. I don't want to understand you.


Anton Chekhov

Even though Article IV of the Constitution says that treaties are the 'supreme law of the land,' in most instances they're not even law.


Sonia Sotomayor

Why should her lover, just because he is male, be in a position to judge her against other women? Why must she need to know her position and hate needing to, and hate knowing? Why should his reply have such exaggerated power? And it does. He does not know that what he says will affect the way she feels when they next make love. She is angry for a number of good reasons that may have nothing to do with this particular man's intentions. The exchange reminds her that, in spite of a whole fabric of carefully woven equalities, they are not equal in this way that is so crucial that its snagged thread unravels the rest.

In THE INHERITANCE readers will see the dangers associated with counterfeit spiritual experience; but they'll also see the beauty of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, and what it means to walk in His resurrection power, which is the inheritance of all believers. The resurrection power of Jesus Christ is genuine, which means authentic and real. Occult power is counterfeit, which is best defined as 'made in imitation of something else with intent to deceive'.

Hospitality means primarily the creation of free space where the stranger can enter and become a friend instead of an enemy. Hospitality is not to change people, but to offer them space where change can take place. It is not to bring men and women over to our side, but to offer freedom not disturbed by dividing lines.


Henri J.M. Nouwen
