Nigel Bartholomew-Smythe is a fictional character from the ABC Daytime soap opera One Life to Live. Peter Bartlett played the role from May 1991 until the series ended on January 13, 2012. Nigel is the longtime butler and confidante of billionaire Asa Buchanan. In 2009, Barlett began also playing the role of Nigel's cousin, Neville Smythe. In early 2003, Nigel is romantically linked to Roxy Balsom. Contents 1 Storylines 1.1 2006-2010 1.2 2011-2012 1.3 2013-present Storylines[] 2006-2010[] In October 2006, David Vickers finds out that Asa once had an affair with David's mother, Emma Bradley, but Asa denies it. Later, David's brother Spencer Truman claims to be Asa's son, but a DNA test proves otherwise. A conversation between Asa and Nigel hints that there is more to the story. On August 16, 2007, Asa dies in his sleep and is found by Nigel. At the funeral on August 17, 2007 Nigel tells a returned Max Holden that Asa has another son: David Vickers. Max advises Nigel to wait to tell the rest of the family; meanwhile, an eavesdropping Alex Olanov seeks out David. Nigel inherits Asa's yacht and private island, but in his video will Asa announces the existence of his other son; Nigel is tasked to inform this son of his parentage "when the time is right." Alex returns, married to an in-the-dark David, and blackmails Nigel with the facts of David's parentage. Not wanting the Buchanans to discover that con man David is one of them, Nigel gives his inheritance to Alex in exchange for her silence. Nigel has a cousin Neville who is the Buchanan mansion butler to the Buchanans living in London, England. Nigel later becomes a butler to Clint Buchanan, his wife Nora Buchanan, Clint's brother Bo Buchanan, and Bo and Nora's son Matthew Buchanan after Asa gives the Buchanan Mansion to Nora in his will. After Clint and Nora divorce in 2010, Nigel soely works for Clint after Clint wins ownership of the mansion from Nora in their divorce settlement. 2011-2012[] After Clint has a heart attack in the spring of 2011 and is blackmailed in exchange for committing his mentally ill daughter Jessica Buchanan to St. Anne's by her then husband Cutter Wentworth, Clint loses ownership of the mansion to Cutter, and Nigel then works as Cutter's butler, along with his house guests Vimal Patel and his wife Rama Patel. Cutter later loses ownership of the mansion when Rex Balsom blackmails his estranged father Clint for the entire Buchanan fortune and the mansion in exchange for Clint to get the heart of Rex's dead fiance Gigi Morasco. Clint hires Nigel to evict Cutter, Vimal, and Rama out of the mansion on June 28, 2011. However, on July 8, 2011, Rex fires Nigel as the mansion's butler because he can't trust Nigel because of his friendship with Clint. Nigel is later hired by Clint to be his butler/confidante when he is under house arrest for twenty years at his ex-wife Victoria Lord's Llanfair estate for committing recent various crimes. Nigel attempts to fend off a briefly deranged Brody Lovett when he kidnaps Liam McBain from Llanfair after word breaks that John is the biological father. Nigel's is knocked out by Brody and tended to by Roxy. They begin to grow close once again, especially when their beloved soap opera, Fraternity Row goes off the air.

Copious Readers, remember that we always like guest posts expressing different writers’ feelings on being single and happy (or not). Here is one from Veronica Hayes. We welcome comments! –Christina and Lisa How To Be Single And Happy The title of this article is how to “be” happy, not stay happy. So what you will read is about the present – the here and now. It’s about looking around and realizing you have made a sane and conscious decision to be single at this point in your life. Today is not forever….which means you’ll be able to change your mind. People do it all the time – men and women, young and old. If there’s one constant in life, it’s change.Stay Active Being single and happy means taking advantage of the fact that your primary responsibility is to yourself. It also means that your time is to yours to do with as you choose, so choose wisely. Sitting around the house playing video games, going online, or watching TV are all options. A great option for most people is to get up and out on a regular basis and mingle with other single people. Join a gym club, find local social events, or get involved with sports teams – professional or local. Staying active will keep you from wondering what to do with all the free time you have available to you. Maximize Your Surroundings Since you live alone, there is no one else to consider when choosing the type of sound system, size of the big screen TV, or how comfortable the chairs should be. There is no one else’s mess to clean up, so you take care of yourself. Take advantage of this and create the type of single person environment that makes a statement about you and being single. I once lived in an apartment that had a massive living room which I turned into an entertainment room, complete with big screen TV, surround sound stereo, and uber-comfortable furniture for lounging. I didn’t worry about someone rearranging things or telling me to turn the volume down. Be Real! This may take some time, but it would behoove you to evaluate whether you’re truly happy or not with your life. You’re single for a reason – whether by choice or by circumstance. If you’re not feeling at ease with your current situation, then find ways to come to terms with it, whether it’s for the short term or long term, and make your life one worth waking up to in the morning. Trying to deny reality will only come back to bite you in the end, so find out what works for you, and don’t be afraid to run with it! Re-evaluate Regularly As I said in the beginning, the one constant in life is change. You will be happier knowing that you have the option to change your mind – in a week, or a month, or a year. Between now and then, re-evaluate your overall situation. For example, you may not be financially ready to move from singleness to marriage or some state in between. Set aside some time and examine your finances to see if the direction you are headed will enable you to make the transition. Remember, you may decide after a while that having money and freedom is a nice combination. Conclusion There are advantages to both being single and being married. They are just different advantages, and the older you get the more likely you will be to accept your singleness or start looking for a life partner. But keep in mind that going from single to married, married to single, over and over again will only make you wonder if you really know what you’re doing. Whatever changes you decide to make, always be your own best friend. Veronica Hayes writes all about dating, relationships and personal empowerment.

Elena - April 3, 2014 sorry but I don’t get this. It is written from a perspective as if money and careers and social pressure didn’t matter at all. “make your life one worth waking up to in the morning”: Every morning I wake up to the pressures of having to go to work in a job I no longer like – and the pressures of trying to find a new job which i DO like which is hard, because the job market doesn’t seem to value 15 years of professional experience if I try to stray from the career path even only a tiny little bit, to do what I like and not what everybody seems to think would be the logical next step in my career. I know very well what kind of life i would like to wake up to every morning but it involves going back to University full time (No part-time studying possible, I’ve asked them) so – not possible, because who’s going to pay for my living costs. I don’t know where this idea comes from that single people have lots of money and freedom at the same time. Gaining lots of money normally means loosing your freedom, and it turns out that choosing freedom over lots of money may not mean having “a little less” money, but seriously endangering your ability to support yourself. Which after all, being single, is what you need to do. I find it harder economically to be single than to get married. Why should someone not be in the financial positon to marry? After all, in a couple you get to share most of the cost (having children is another matter. But even then, a relationship means that there are two people earning money for the family not just one).

By Darin Bartram et al - posted Friday, 21 March 2003 Sign Up for free e-mail updates! Tweet In their joint article published in The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald on February 26, a group of lawyers espoused the thesis that a US-led invasion of Iraq would violate international legal norms proscribing the use of force and international humanitarian law regulating the way in which war is conducted. We believe that their views are based on legal and factual premises of doubtful validity, which could undermine rather than enhance the relevance and importance of international law in world politics. Much of the present debate on Iraq is premised on the assumption, shared by the authors of the joint letter, that the Security Council has not already endorsed the use of force. An opposite and plausible case can and has been made on the basis of the wording of resolutions already adopted. Resolution 1441 was carefully and deliberately framed in terms that could be read to permit the use of force. It was adopted under Chapter VII which allows the council to adopt mandatory action to deal with threats to the peace, breaches of the peace and acts of aggression. Advertisement The resolution says that Iraq remains "in breach of its material obligations" under previous Chapter VII resolutions, has a "final opportunity to comply" and failing compliance will "face serious consequences". It explicitly recalls Resolution 678 (1990), which authorised "all necessary means" to restore peace and security in the region and Resolution 687 (1991) which established the conditions for the cease-fire after the Gulf War. By its terms, Resolution 1441 clearly viewed the use of force against Iraq not in isolation but rather as a continuation of measures taken in the wake of Saddam Hussein's illegal invasion of Kuwait. Following his defeat in 1991, his regime was saved by a cease-fire granted on the strict condition that Hussein would account for and destroy every one of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, that he would cease repressing his people and that he would discontinue his support for international terrorism. Economic sanctions have already been in place for 12 years, but Iraq's "breach of its material obligations" continues despite "the final opportunity" provided by Resolution 1441. The "serious consequences" which he must thus face were understood to include the possibility of military force. Furthermore, even if Resolution 1441 were not read to authorise military action, the use of force against Hussein's regime at this time would be legally justified on the basis of the UN Charter and the right of individual and collective self-defence, realistically interpreted. In categorically rejecting the right of the coalition to resort to force against Iraq, the authors adhere to an overly static view of the UN Charter provisions on armed force. The charter contemplated that the Security Council would have "primary responsibility" for maintaining international peace and security. But it did not, nor could it reasonably, expect the council to trump forever a state's inherent right to defend itself, either alone or with allies, against actual or imminent attacks. Nor could it freeze forever the manner in which such concepts as "necessity", "proportionality" or "imminence" are interpreted. Advertisement It is both reasonable and necessary, in the wake of September 11, to interpret these terms in the light of changing conditions and dangers, and especially the vastly increased threat of terrorist violence and its support by rogue states. States cannot be required to wait for a devastating terrorist attack to actually occur before taking measures of self-defence against states. Nor should the prohibition on the use of force be interpreted to bar such use for purposes of humanitarian intervention. The authors of the joint letter are understandably concerned that any attack on Iraq will inevitably entail the loss of innocent life. War is certainly detestable. But to argue that the use of force against Iraq must necessarily violate international humanitarian law is a major expansion of international law beyond its current limits. Continued over the page...

You read fantasy and you wish you could become a wizard detective, a clever thief, Superman...but, a rock-climber? That's precisely what I wished to become after I was done with Courtney Schafer's debut novel, The Whitefire Crossing. Not that the book itself was about rock-climbing, but the passages in which it was featured, were quite compelling. I'm scared shitless of heights, so one can dream. It's the first book in The Shattered Sigil series, followed by The Tainted City projected for a 2012 release. Dev is an outrider for caravans as they travel from one city to another, particularly through the mountains in which he uses his mountaineering expertise to scout for any danger. He also takes smuggling jobs on the side. He's been lauded to be very good at his job, though a risk taker for his love and thrill of rock climbing, he's been risk averse on the smuggling jobs he takes; until now. Losing all his savings due to some circumstances, savings he needed to save the life of someone he cares and is responsible for, he's forced into smuggling a young man, Kiran, into a city with a heavily guarded border against his better judgement. Unbeknownst to him, Kiran is a mage on the run from a very powerful and dangerous mage who'd stop at nothing to get him back. The book is narrated in both first and third person limited perspectives. First person belongs to Dev, while the third person limited belongs to Kiran. I personally love this exercise, while I know some will find the style not to their liking, but I thought it was handled quite well. The switches in POV are marked preceding the passages, so there will be no confusion. I don't think readers will have problem getting into rhythm if that is of concern. The Whitefire Crossing was a real treat of a novel. I'm not a fan of books that spend a good portion travelling, yet this novel packs some good energy and enthusiasm along with a thriller element through this making it quite entertaining and fresh. It's in fact the best part of novel. Two thirds of the novel in or so, the energy of the book drops substantially as the action and movement slows down and the plot not as interesting as what came before it. Main problem for me that some of the "reveals" were already heavily foreshadowed and easily inferred so they lost the impact when introduced along with the emotional impact in our characters. Picks right back up towards the end though with some exciting turn of events followed by an aftermath portion which sets up the next stage of the series in a manner which is of great interest to me with some promise of political intrigue which I enjoy very much. The novel itself can be characterized as one about choices and consequences, juxtaposed with themes of trust and freedom. Throughout the whole novel both of our main characters are presented with a myriad of choices, choices that weigh heavy on them. It's these dilemmas that drive the character conflicts throughout the novel. There's a lot of introspection in which these struggles are depicted, in particular when they involve questions of trust versus risking freedom. If that isn't enough, both characters are confined by self-interest agendas that may force them to betray each other, and themselves for that matter, as they view it as an inevitability of their situation charged by shackles from their past and potential future, creating a self-fulfilling prophecy. The book features plenty of magic use, and I thought some of it was quite interesting when considering the cost-benefit analysis of magic usage. Personally would like to see more details of how the magic works and what limits does it actually have. For purposes of what was featured in this novel, they're not that important but some events towards the end hints to me that they might be in the future. The Whitefire Crossing is limited in scope as plot needs demand, so worldbuilding suffers a bit because of it. But don't ignore that which was featured coming to life in the pages, particularly through the mountain trek. There's plenty of anecdotal evidence throughout the novel though, which fuels the imagination about the possibilities in this world. Very much looking forward to how the boundaries of what we've been educated on expand in future installments. Courtney Schafer has written a very promising debut which I highly recommend. Well written in an unorthodox style giving a fresh energy to some traditional ideas among the new. Main strength being the character conflicts presented throughout, and the enthusiastic and detailed narrative of mountaineering portions of the novel energized by Schafer's expertise of rock climbing. Plenty of action and a fast moving book which should keep readers entertained and turning the pages. Sequel of the novel is The Tainted City, very much looking forward to it, and hope many of you give this series a try. ****************** Thanks to Bastard for taking over Only the Best for today.

December 21, 2011 at 12:17 PM bloggeratf said... Hey Bastard nice review. I've added it to my list. Do you see a trend where debut authors tend to start out small, with a tightly focused character driven narrative, then in the second or third book they try and change it into epic fantasy? I've seen this from a couple debut authors now where the world expands dramatically after the first book, you get many more PoVs ect. I wonder where they are all getting their advise. December 21, 2011 at 1:52 PM Bastard said... I'm the last person to be making assumptions on this, but sure I notice that aspect. I don't know if it's a debut author issue, but seems like a natural progression to any story. Building on book after book. I read a lot of urban fantasy, and though it's narrated mostly in first person, it's quite common to see limited scope in the first books and then expand upon that as the series goes about. In all I like this aspect of things, it gives off something to look forward to. The downside is when a POV you're not particularly interested in gets introduced, and takes time away from those POVs you enjoy the most. Myself a fan of few POV in my story, probably why I enjoy third person limited and first person the most. December 21, 2011 at 2:00 PM ediFanoB said... The Whitefire Crossing is a great read. I enjoyed it a lot. I'm not interested in to climb rocks. But the rock-climbing passages in the book are awesome. Courtney Schafer demonstrates who compelling and vivid traveling can be.

The Coconut Thinking podcast brings together educational provocateurs who are re-thinking school as a concept and a space. It is about advancing the conversation about learning for purpose and for the common good, not just for job-readiness, and certainly not to create docile consumers. Coconut Thinking is a place where we think and act to make positive contributions to the welfare of the bio-collective—all living things that have an interest in the healthfulness of the planet. It is time for revolutionary change in education, to move away from anthropocentric approaches and embrace learning as a social and natural experience that has purpose. It is time to go #BeyondSchool and open up learning and action for, by, and to the (greater) community. All Episodes Moving toward human liberatory models (ft. Ulcca Joshi Hansen, Ph.D., J.D.) In this episode, I speak with Ulcca Joshi Hansen, author, educational thought leader and social change advocate with a twenty-year career dedicated to shifting the foundational values and approaches that undergird America’s education system. She currently serves as the Chief Program Officer for Grantmakers for Education, a member organization that serves as a trusted partner for education philanthropists as they adapt to the changes impacting our world. Her latest book is The Future of Smart and she has a couple TEDx talks that are well worth a listen. We discuss: How this is the first time that employers want the skills that human liberatory models claim to provide (and Ulcca also defines what human liberatory models are!); How the thinking that got us here won't get us out of here: mechanistic/Newtonian thinking needing to make way for quantum thinking/ancient wisdoms; How blockchain and other emerging technologies are tools that might help us get to where we want to go, but they aren't the destination. Check out our blog on www.coconut-thinking.design and also on www.intrepidednews.com Dec 2 46 min 29 sec Learning experiences at REAL School Budapest (ft. Dave Strudwick) In this episode, I speak with Dave Strudwick, Principal of REAL School Budapest. REAL School is an independent, not-for-profit international learning environment that educates for sustainability, primarily through real-life, entrepreneurial learning. Their mission is to raise a new generation who can dream and build a more beautiful, equitable and sustainable world for themselves and for all living beings. Dave's background has a strong Arts component to it and his insights on learning and how to set creativity free are rich and provocative. We discuss: How questions are more important than answers in nurturing curiosity; How learners of all ages can work together to contribute to the community and learn through these experiences; How transforming learning means working with, not against, the tensions in education. Check out our blog on www.coconut-thinking.design and Intrepid Ed News on www.intrepidednews.com Nov 29 45 min 23 sec We learn to solve problems, we solve problems to learn (ft. Yong Zhao, Ph.D.) In this episode, I speak to Yong Zhao, Foundations Distinguished Professor in the School of Education with an appointment in the School of Business at the University of Kansas. He is also the Global Chair Professor of Education at East China Normal University, a global chair professor at the University of Bath in the U.K., and a Professorial Fellow at the Mitchell Institute for Education Policy at Victoria University, Australia.Yong Zhao has published over 100 articles and 30 books, including Reach for Greatness: Personalizable Education for all Children (2018), Counting What Counts: Reframing Education Outcomes(2016), and Never Send a Human to Do a Machine's Job: Correcting Top 5 Ed Tech Mistakes (2015). In this episode, we discuss: The need to cultivate every child's uniqueness and define success based on that uniqueness, not some external standard; How to convert our uniqueness into valuable contributions, which doesn't happen in most school systems—contributions go beyond compliance; How Entrepreneurial Product-Oriented Learning is the specificity that that might take PBL farther and deeper.

Ginny Whitelaw, Ph.D.) In this episode, I speak with Ginny Whitelaw. Ginny is the founder of the Institute for Zen Leadership, a Zen Master in the Chozen-ji line of Rinzai Zen, as well as President of Focus Leadership. She is a recognized expert in leadership development and executive coaching and has authored 4 books, including The Zen Leader. A biophysicist by training, she combines a rich scientific background with senior leadership experience at NASA, and more than 20 years developing global leaders. Ginny brings ancient wisdoms and contemporary science together to make us question the dominant narrative of control in schools, the one that is built on cause and effect to reach outcomes. We discuss: How quantum physics and Zen wisdoms share the same understandings of an interconnected universe; How the mechanistic views upon which our schools depend are losing their legitimacy opening doors for regenerative, ecosystemic perspectives; How learning is a shared experience built on dynamic relationships, not just with each other, but with the natural world, through capacity building. Join us for this episode and check out our blog on www.coconut-thinking.design. The Coconut Thinking podcast is made in partnership with Intrepid Ed News (www.intrepidednews.com) and you can find Ginny and more information on Zen leader on on https://zenleader.global Nov 8 33 min 9 sec How would nature change leadership... and schools? (ft. Andrés Roberts) In this episode of the Coconut Thinking Podcast, I speak with Andrés Roberts, Founding Partner at The Bio-Leadership Project and Way of Nature UK. The Mission of the Bio-Leadership Project is to change the story of leadership by working with nature. Much of Andrés's work is around asking the question "How would nature change leadership?" This question is pertinent to all corners of society, but more and more so as learners become leaders. In this episode, we discuss: • How the mechanistic, reductionist narrative is become outdated; • What is it to connect to something more than ourselves, to do good for the whole? • Changing our definitions of success and progress by finding inspiration from nature.

This podcast is in partnership with Intrepid Ed News (www.intrepidednews.com) Nov 2 44 min 10 sec Regenerative cultures for learning (ft. Daniel Christian Wahl, Ph.D.) In this episode, I speak with Daniel Christian Wahl, international consultant and educator specializing in biologically-inspired whole systems design and transformative innovation. He is the author of Designing Regenerative Cultures and has worked with local and national governments on foresight and futures, consulted companies like Camper, Ecover and Lush on sustainable innovation, and has co-authored and taught sustainability training courses for Gaia Education, LEAD International and various universities and design schools. Daniel's experience and views on regenerative cultures are part of a larger systemic conversation that involve education and the pressing need for change. In this episode, we discuss: The building capacity in ourselves, others, and life, over looking for fixed solutions; Making the teaching of bio-productivity a measure, if not the measure, of success; Being receptive to place so we can become expressions of place. Join us for another episode and please visit us on www.coconut-thinking.design. This podcast is in partnership with Intrepid Ed News (www.intrepidednews.com). Oct 26 50 min 28 sec Centralizing the Arts to liberate learning (ft. Jane Bryant) In this episode of the Coconut Thinking podcast, I speak with Jane Bryant, former CEO of Artswork, the UK's national youth arts development agency, formerly chaired by Ken Robinson. Now a consultant, Jane works in the cultural sector, aiming to work with clients from arts, creative and cultural organisations, the education sector, funders, and local authorities. Much of her work focuses on increasing access, especially for children and young people. In this episode, we discuss: How the Arts can help us develop so much that can be transferred to other parts of our lives; How reducing education to assessment and sidelining the affective does a great disservice to us as individuals and a society; How the Arts and creative practice can be centralized in schools. I take the phrase "liberating learning" from Santiago Rincón-Gallardo and I don't think there could be a better use of the phrase than when considering the connection between the Arts and creativity in schools. You can also check out our web site on www.coconut-thinking.design and we look forward to your thoughts and comments. Oct 10 47 min 39 sec How can we reframe our learning through living systems? (ft. Carol Sanford) How can we use regenerative practices to help people reveal their essence? How can we move away from a deterministic approach to education and allow learners to set their own path in ways that are meaningful to them? What could a learning ecosystem without assessment look like? How do we draw on the commonalities of quantum physics and ancient wisdoms to frame our thinking? In this episode of the Coconut Thinking podcast, I speak with Carol Sanford. Carol is a consistently recognized thought leader working side by side with Fortune 500 and new economy executives in designing and leading systemic business change and design. Through her university and in-house educational offerings, global speaking platforms, multi-award-winning books, and human development work, Carol works with executive leaders who see the possibility to change the nature of work through developing people and work systems that ignite motivation everywhere. Carol is the author of https://carolsanford.com/the-regenerative-business/ (The Regenerative Business): Redesign Work, Cultivate Human Potential, Achieve Extraordinary Outcomes and several other books. She was recognized as a Thought Leader Lifetime Achievement Award from Trust Across America-Trust Around the World, and has received the Athena Award for Excellence in Business, Mentorship and Community Service.

Louka Parry) This episode is the second part of a two part series of exchanges between Louka Parry, CEO of the https://www.thelearningfuture.com (Learning Future) and host of the https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-learning-future-podcast-with-louka-parry/id1529079568?i=1000534075343 (Learning Future podcast), and me. I was thrilled to be a guest on Louka's podcast (part 1) and even more thrilled to have Louka on this episode. In addition his role at Learning Future, Louka is a Founding Executive of Karanga: the Global Alliance for SEL and Life Skills. A former teacher, he became a school principal at 27 years old and was named Inspirational Public Secondary Teacher of the Year for South Australia. He has since trained thousands of educators and leaders globally to increase their positive impact. He is a linguist, a world traveller, incredibly well-read and thoughtful, and his perspective on many issues are sure to move your thinking. In this episode, we ask: How can we move from one learning standard to one learning ecosystem, with many journeys possible? How does "success for us" change if we re-think the boundaries of "us?" What would an explicit curriculum of kindness look like? We hope you'll enjoy this episode, subscribe, and come visit us on https://coconut-thinking.design. Sep 9 58 min 35 sec Learning starts with knowing who we are (ft. Devin Vodicka, Ed.D) In this episode of the Coconut Thinking podcast, I speak with Devin Vodicka, CEO of the Learner-Centered Collaborative, former CEO of Altitude Learning, and author of "Learner-Centered Leadership." You will probably have come across Devin's writings, talks, and thoughts as he is as deep a thinker as he is a prolific creator. Devin contributes so much to the conversation about what it means to be a leader inside and outside schools, how we can think and re-think assessment to be more learner-centered, and the role of identity in the process of learning. Oh yeah, and he knows a thing or two about quantum mechanics. We discuss: How the ways we have used to measure learning have impeded possibilities for learning; How knowing who we are is essential to the process of learning, but there are many ways to define "we;" How social connections need to power new ways of thinking, leaving egos behind.

This conversation is the first of I hope many amongst a nascent community of thinkers and doers who believe that we need to shift our values away from anthropocentrism toward biocentrism, toward purpose that benefits other living beings. We had the Agricultural Revolution, the Industrial Revolution... now it's time for another revolution, one where humans develop beyond themselves.

Jun 2020 48 min 11 sec What Have Students Learned During Their School Years and What Do They Value? Listening to education podcasts, there are many conversations about the student experience that take place between adults, and while there can be so much to learn from pedagogical experts and leaders, it's all too rare that anyone asks the students themselves about their school years. In this Podcast, I interview 3 recent High School graduates about what they learned the past 4 year, in school and outside, what resonates with them, what they would change in schools, and what how prepared they feel for life after High School. We often talk about voice and choice for students, so this was a chance to give team space to express themselves. They have much to teach us if we want to design learning experiences that make an impact as well as make connections with the students. In this episode, we learn (confirm?) that students value choice, relationships, and the space to pursue their interests. No surprise maybe, but these kids have some insightful ideas about how to go about it all.

Join us for another episode of the Meaningful Learning Podcast by Coconut Thinking. May 2020 35 min 45 sec How Can We Assess Actual Learning? We look at why: learning cannot be measured effectively through testing. the education industry has reduced learning to a score (grade). measuring the effects of learning as action is what matters most.

The present thesis deals with alternative powertrains, focusing on electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles and which of those alternative powertrains is considered as sustainable for the future. It explores the question, which alternative powertrain is worthwhile investing in for German automotive suppliers. The aim is to clarify which of the two powertrains is already established on the market and what the future prospects of those powertrains are. The question here is evaluated based on the analysis of current literature as well as through the use of a SWOT analysis and the use of the scoring model. As a result it is clear that there is a need for alternative powertrains and the entire automotive industry invests a lot in the development and research of alternative powertrains. According to the German Federal Government, one million electric vehicles should be on German roads by 2020. With pure electric vehicles, however, the goal will be difficult to reach. Therefore, there is a lot of vested interest in the development of hybrid vehicles on the market. It shows that the hybrid vehicle has considerable advantages over the electric vehicle and the hybrid vehicle is already seen as a transitional solution for pure electric vehicles. The hybrid vehicle is also already established in the market and has better chances on the market in the future. Therefore, it makes sense for German automotive suppliers to invest in hybrid vehicles and to focus on this market, since there the chances of success are greater and the future potential of this market is higher.

The increasing prevalence of myopia throughout the industrialized world in recent decades has caused costs and problems for the eye health. Changed lifestyle and behavior are the main causes. For the pathogenesis of myopia, the amount of time spent outdoor and near activities play an important role. Various options for the treatment of myopia have been described as effective in the literature. Normal single vision glasses and contact lenses can only provide clear vision, but do not reduce myopia progression. Orthokeratology shows a slowing of axial growth, but has an increased risk of infectious keratitis. Low-dose atropine (0.01%) is currently the best pharmacological option. It proved safe, effective and showed the least rebound effect with negligible side effects. Other options for the treatment of myopia include special glasses, behavioral changes and prolonged outdoor exposure (to prevent the onset of myopia), as well as other methods. An increasingly important myopia management option is multifocal contact lenses, that provide a peripheral treatment zone producing myopic defocus. Such myopia control lenses are available as customized or as daily or monthly lenses. Children benefit from wearing contact lenses more than just having refractive error correction and myopia control, they have a better self-esteem and improved quality of life. The numerous findings on the safety and efficacy of soft multifocal distance center contact lenses in children to reduce the progression of myopia suggest that this modality should be considered as a main treatment option. Less, but similar to orthokeratology, when wearing soft lenses there is a risk of developing potentially serious complications such as microbial keratitis. The introduction of child-appropriate risk minimization strategies, and patient and parent education with regular monitoring is essential and leads to successful contact lens wear. This literature review summarized the actual knowledge about myopia management, prevalence, etiology and the visual and healthy consequences of myopia. The three currently most important strategies for slowing the progression of myopia are soft multifocal distance center contact lenses, Orthokeratology and low-dose atropine ophthalmic drops.

You may not have to, it is up to the administrator of the board as to whether you need to register in order to post messages. However; registration will give you access to additional features not available to guest users such as definable avatar images, private messaging, emailing of fellow users, usergroup subscription, etc. It only takes a few moments to register so it is recommended you do so. Top What is COPPA? COPPA, or the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, is a law in the United States requiring websites which can potentially collect information from minors under the age of 13 to have written parental consent or some other method of legal guardian acknowledgment, allowing the collection of personally identifiable information from a minor under the age of 13. If you are unsure if this applies to you as someone trying to register or to the website you are trying to register on, contact legal counsel for assistance. Please note that phpBB Limited and the owners of this board cannot provide legal advice and is not a point of contact for legal concerns of any kind, except as outlined in question “Who do I contact about abusive and/or legal matters related to this board?”. Top Why can’t I register? It is possible a board administrator has disabled registration to prevent new visitors from signing up. A board administrator could have also banned your IP address or disallowed the username you are attempting to register. Contact a board administrator for assistance. Top I registered but cannot login! First, check your username and password. If they are correct, then one of two things may have happened. If COPPA support is enabled and you specified being under 13 years old during registration, you will have to follow the instructions you received. Some boards will also require new registrations to be activated, either by yourself or by an administrator before you can logon; this information was present during registration. If you were sent an email, follow the instructions. If you did not receive an email, you may have provided an incorrect email address or the email may have been picked up by a spam filer. If you are sure the email address you provided is correct, try contacting an administrator. Top Why can’t I login? There are several reasons why this could occur. First, ensure your username and password are correct. If they are, contact a board administrator to make sure you haven’t been banned. It is also possible the website owner has a configuration error on their end, and they would need to fix it. Top I registered in the past but cannot login any more?! It is possible an administrator has deactivated or deleted your account for some reason. Also, many boards periodically remove users who have not posted for a long time to reduce the size of the database. If this has happened, try registering again and being more involved in discussions. Top I’ve lost my password! Don’t panic! While your password cannot be retrieved, it can easily be reset. Visit the login page and click I forgot my password. Follow the instructions and you should be able to log in again shortly. However, if you are not able to reset your password, contact a board administrator. Top Why do I get logged off automatically? If you do not check the Remember me box when you login, the board will only keep you logged in for a preset time. This prevents misuse of your account by anyone else. To stay logged in, check the Remember me box during login. This is not recommended if you access the board from a shared computer, e.g. library, internet cafe, university computer lab, etc. If you do not see this checkbox, it means a board administrator has disabled this feature. Top What does the “Delete cookies” do? “Delete cookies” deletes the cookies created by phpBB which keep you authenticated and logged into the board. Cookies also provide functions such as read tracking if they have been enabled by a board administrator. If you are having login or logout problems, deleting board cookies may help. Top User Preferences and settings How do I change my settings? If you are a registered user, all your settings are stored in the board database. To alter them, visit your User Control Panel; a link can usually be found by clicking on your username at the top of board pages. This system will allow you to change all your settings and preferences. Top How do I prevent my username appearing in the online user listings? Within your User Control Panel, under “Board preferences”, you will find the option Hide your online status. Enable this option and you will only appear to the administrators, moderators and yourself. You will be counted as a hidden user. Top The times are not correct! It is possible the time displayed is from a timezone different from the one you are in. If this is the case, visit your User Control Panel and change your timezone to match your particular area, e.g. London, Paris, New York, Sydney, etc. Please note that changing the timezone, like most settings, can only be done by registered users. If you are not registered, this is a good time to do so. Top I changed the timezone and the time is still wrong! If you are sure you have set the timezone correctly and the time is still incorrect, then the time stored on the server clock is incorrect. Please notify an administrator to correct the problem. Top My language is not in the list! Either the administrator has not installed your language or nobody has translated this board into your language. Try asking a board administrator if they can install the language pack you need. If the language pack does not exist, feel free to create a new translation. More information can be found at the phpBB® website. Top What are the images next to my username? There are two images which may appear along with a username when viewing posts. One of them may be an image associated with your rank, generally in the form of stars, blocks or dots, indicating how many posts you have made or your status on the board. Another, usually larger, image is known as an avatar and is generally unique or personal to each user. Top How do I display an avatar? Within your User Control Panel, under “Profile” you can add an avatar by using one of the four following methods: Gravatar, Gallery, Remote or Upload. It is up to the board administrator to enable avatars and to choose the way in which avatars can be made available. If you are unable to use avatars, contact a board administrator. Top What is my rank and how do I change it? Ranks, which appear below your username, indicate the number of posts you have made or identify certain users, e.g. moderators and administrators. In general, you cannot directly change the wording of any board ranks as they are set by the board administrator. Please do not abuse the board by posting unnecessarily just to increase your rank. Most boards will not tolerate this and the moderator or administrator will simply lower your post count. Top When I click the email link for a user it asks me to login? Only registered users can send email to other users via the built-in email form, and only if the administrator has enabled this feature. This is to prevent malicious use of the email system by anonymous users. Top Posting Issues How do I create a new topic or post a reply? To post a new topic in a forum, click "New Topic". To post a reply to a topic, click "Post Reply". You may need to register before you can post a message. A list of your permissions in each forum is available at the bottom of the forum and topic screens. Example: You can post new topics, You can post attachments, etc. Top How do I edit or delete a post? Unless you are a board administrator or moderator, you can only edit or delete your own posts. You can edit a post by clicking the edit button for the relevant post, sometimes for only a limited time after the post was made. If someone has already replied to the post, you will find a small piece of text output below the post when you return to the topic which lists the number of times you edited it along with the date and time. This will only appear if someone has made a reply; it will not appear if a moderator or administrator edited the post, though they may leave a note as to why they’ve edited the post at their own discretion. Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied. Top How do I add a signature to my post? To add a signature to a post you must first create one via your User Control Panel. Once created, you can check the Attach a signature box on the posting form to add your signature. You can also add a signature by default to all your posts by checking the appropriate radio button in the User Control Panel. If you do so, you can still prevent a signature being added to individual posts by un-checking the add signature box within the posting form. Top How do I create a poll? When posting a new topic or editing the first post of a topic, click the “Poll creation” tab below the main posting form; if you cannot see this, you do not have appropriate permissions to create polls. Enter a title and at least two options in the appropriate fields, making sure each option is on a separate line in the textarea. You can also set the number of options users may select during voting under “Options per user”, a time limit in days for the poll (0 for infinite duration) and lastly the option to allow users to amend their votes. Top Why can’t I add more poll options? The limit for poll options is set by the board administrator. If you feel you need to add more options to your poll than the allowed amount, contact the board administrator. Top How do I edit or delete a poll? As with posts, polls can only be edited by the original poster, a moderator or an administrator. To edit a poll, click to edit the first post in the topic; this always has the poll associated with it. If no one has cast a vote, users can delete the poll or edit any poll option. However, if members have already placed votes, only moderators or administrators can edit or delete it. This prevents the poll’s options from being changed mid-way through a poll. Top Why can’t I access a forum? Some forums may be limited to certain users or groups. To view, read, post or perform another action you may need special permissions. Contact a moderator or board administrator to grant you access. Top Why can’t I add attachments? Attachment permissions are granted on a per forum, per group, or per user basis. The board administrator may not have allowed attachments to be added for the specific forum you are posting in, or perhaps only certain groups can post attachments. Contact the board administrator if you are unsure about why you are unable to add attachments. Top Why did I receive a warning? Each board administrator has their own set of rules for their site. If you have broken a rule, you may be issued a warning. Please note that this is the board administrator’s decision, and the phpBB Limited has nothing to do with the warnings on the given site. Contact the board administrator if you are unsure about why you were issued a warning. Top How can I report posts to a moderator? If the board administrator has allowed it, you should see a button for reporting posts next to the post you wish to report. Clicking this will walk you through the steps necessary to report the post. Top What is the “Save” button for in topic posting? This allows you to save drafts to be completed and submitted at a later date. To reload a saved draft, visit the User Control Panel. Top Why does my post need to be approved? The board administrator may have decided that posts in the forum you are posting to require review before submission. It is also possible that the administrator has placed you in a group of users whose posts require review before submission. Please contact the board administrator for further details. Top How do I bump my topic? By clicking the “Bump topic” link when you are viewing it, you can “bump” the topic to the top of the forum on the first page. However, if you do not see this, then topic bumping may be disabled or the time allowance between bumps has not yet been reached. It is also possible to bump the topic simply by replying to it, however, be sure to follow the board rules when doing so. Top Formatting and Topic Types What is BBCode? BBCode is a special implementation of HTML, offering great formatting control on particular objects in a post. The use of BBCode is granted by the administrator, but it can also be disabled on a per post basis from the posting form. BBCode itself is similar in style to HTML, but tags are enclosed in square brackets [ and ] rather than < and >. For more information on BBCode see the guide which can be accessed from the posting page. Top Can I use HTML? No. It is not possible to post HTML on this board and have it rendered as HTML. Most formatting which can be carried out using HTML can be applied using BBCode instead. Top What are Smilies? Smilies, or Emoticons, are small images which can be used to express a feeling using a short code, e.g. :) denotes happy, while :( denotes sad. The full list of emoticons can be seen in the posting form. Try not to overuse smilies, however, as they can quickly render a post unreadable and a moderator may edit them out or remove the post altogether. The board administrator may also have set a limit to the number of smilies you may use within a post. Top Can I post images? Yes, images can be shown in your posts. If the administrator has allowed attachments, you may be able to upload the image to the board. Otherwise, you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.example.com/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor images stored behind authentication mechanisms, e.g. hotmail or yahoo mailboxes, password protected sites, etc. To display the image use the BBCode [img] tag.

Locked topics are topics where users can no longer reply and any poll it contained was automatically ended. Topics may be locked for many reasons and were set this way by either the forum moderator or board administrator. You may also be able to lock your own topics depending on the permissions you are granted by the board administrator. Top What are topic icons? Topic icons are author chosen images associated with posts to indicate their content. The ability to use topic icons depends on the permissions set by the board administrator. Top User Levels and Groups What are Administrators? Administrators are members assigned with the highest level of control over the entire board. These members can control all facets of board operation, including setting permissions, banning users, creating usergroups or moderators, etc., dependent upon the board founder and what permissions he or she has given the other administrators. They may also have full moderator capabilities in all forums, depending on the settings put forth by the board founder. Top What are Moderators? Moderators are individuals (or groups of individuals) who look after the forums from day to day. They have the authority to edit or delete posts and lock, unlock, move, delete and split topics in the forum they moderate. Generally, moderators are present to prevent users from going off-topic or posting abusive or offensive material. Top What are usergroups? Usergroups are groups of users that divide the community into manageable sections board administrators can work with. Each user can belong to several groups and each group can be assigned individual permissions. This provides an easy way for administrators to change permissions for many users at once, such as changing moderator permissions or granting users access to a private forum. Top Where are the usergroups and how do I join one? You can view all usergroups via the “Usergroups” link within your User Control Panel. If you would like to join one, proceed by clicking the appropriate button. Not all groups have open access, however. Some may require approval to join, some may be closed and some may even have hidden memberships. If the group is open, you can join it by clicking the appropriate button. If a group requires approval to join you may request to join by clicking the appropriate button. The user group leader will need to approve your request and may ask why you want to join the group. Please do not harass a group leader if they reject your request; they will have their reasons. Top How do I become a usergroup leader? A usergroup leader is usually assigned when usergroups are initially created by a board administrator. If you are interested in creating a usergroup, your first point of contact should be an administrator; try sending a private message. Top Why do some usergroups appear in a different colour? It is possible for the board administrator to assign a colour to the members of a usergroup to make it easy to identify the members of this group. Top What is a “Default usergroup”? If you are a member of more than one usergroup, your default is used to determine which group colour and group rank should be shown for you by default. The board administrator may grant you permission to change your default usergroup via your User Control Panel. Top What is “The team” link? This page provides you with a list of board staff, including board administrators and moderators and other details such as the forums they moderate. Top Private Messaging I cannot send private messages! There are three reasons for this; you are not registered and/or not logged on, the board administrator has disabled private messaging for the entire board, or the board administrator has prevented you from sending messages. Contact a board administrator for more information. Top I keep getting unwanted private messages! You can automatically delete private messages from a user by using message rules within your User Control Panel. If you are receiving abusive private messages from a particular user, report the messages to the moderators; they have the power to prevent a user from sending private messages. Top I have received a spamming or abusive email from someone on this board! We are sorry to hear that. The email form feature of this board includes safeguards to try and track users who send such posts, so email the board administrator with a full copy of the email you received. It is very important that this includes the headers that contain the details of the user that sent the email. The board administrator can then take action. Top Friends and Foes What are my Friends and Foes lists? You can use these lists to organise other members of the board. Members added to your friends list will be listed within your User Control Panel for quick access to see their online status and to send them private messages. Subject to template support, posts from these users may also be highlighted. If you add a user to your foes list, any posts they make will be hidden by default.

Alternatively, from your User Control Panel, you can directly add users by entering their member name. You may also remove users from your list using the same page.

Advanced search can be accessed by clicking the “Advance Search” link which is available on all pages on the forum. How to access the search may depend on the style used. Top Why does my search return no results? Your search was probably too vague and included many common terms which are not indexed by phpBB. Be more specific and use the options available within Advanced search. Top Why does my search return a blank page!? Your search returned too many results for the webserver to handle. Use “Advanced search” and be more specific in the terms used and forums that are to be searched. Top How do I search for members? Visit to the “Members” page and click the “Find a member” link.

Harry is not in the best shape when the novel begins—he feels isolated among the unbearable Muggles, misses Hogwarts, and feels abandoned by his two best friends, Ron and Hermione—and his unhappiness leads him to act recklessly. Given Harry’s close and terrifying encounter with Lord Voldemort at the end of Book IV, Harry is right to be intensely concerned about the fate of his beloved Hogwarts, and the total lack of news from the Wizard world is excruciating for him. Harry’s prolonged aggravation culminates in the alleyway with Dudley, when he whips out his wand and comes terribly close to using his magic to torment him. Harry is barely able to contain his rage, and, were it not for the interruption of the dementors, he very well might have cast a spell on Dudley, earning himself instant expulsion from Hogwarts. In this sense, the dementors actually save Harry from his own evil desires. Though the Wizard and Muggle worlds operate under very different sets of principles, these principles sometimes overlap, and the sharp delineation between those worlds is beginning to blur. Despite his concerns about Hogwarts and his Wizard pals, Harry hides in the flowerbed in order to hear news from the Muggle world. He is already concerned that Voldemort’s effort to regain power could penetrate the Muggle universe, having a dramatic and debilitating effect on everyday Muggle life. Aunt Petunia’s recognition of Voldemort and her obvious fear at the sound of his name, which mirrors the typical Wizard reaction, indicate that Voldemort’s evil may have already found its way into her life. Harry’s worlds are getting all mixed up, with dementors showing up in Surrey, Mrs. Figg turning out to be a Squib, Aunt Petunia knowing about the prison at Azkaban, and Uncle Vernon asking questions about the Ministry of Magic. The principles Harry thought were specific to each of his worlds turn out to cross over to the other world with unexpected ease. Rowling uses these opening chapters to introduce a series of questions that she will proceed to answer in the thirty-six chapters that follow. We don’t yet know why Aunt Petunia received a Howler, presumably from Dumbledore, or why she knows about Azkaban and Lord Voldemort. Why haven’t Ron and Hermione been writing? Why hasn’t Harry heard from Dumbledore? What’s going on with Voldemort? Why were dementors sent to attack Harry in Little Whinging? Of all these questions, the last one is the most pressing, since the presence of the dementors in Little Whinging is curious on many levels. The dementors should never present themselves to Muggles, and, more important, they should never abandon their post guarding the prison at Azkaban, where they work under the direction and control of Cornelius Fudge and the Ministry of Magic. The fact that the dementors acted so fully out of character does not bode well for Harry and his friends.

Discussions on the music of Jad Fair usually end with him being exalted as a great example of honesty and the D.I.Y. Punk aesthetic or someone crying, "I don't get it." Whether with his brother David as Half Japanese or on his own, Fair's records have always been unpolished and selfless glimpses into an almost childlike mind. His endearing bits of noise, folk, children's songs and Avant Jazz have weathered every possible musical climate for almost twenty years. Perhaps we haven't yet caught on to his vision. Either that, or he's outright bonkers.

Ma Anand Sheela is a redoubtable stateswoman who hit international headlines with her grit, gumption and sharp tongue when she built and ran Rajneeshpuram in the US of A. I posted about my meeting with Ma Anand Sheela or Sheela Biernstiel, who lives in Switzerland now, on my social media. Since some of you aren’t on my Facebook and most of you aren’t on FB at all, I thought of reproducing it on my favourite platform — os.me. When I met her, I was greeted by a warm and soft-spoken person whose calmness was contagious. Was she indeed the skilful éminence grise who kicked up a storm with her witty comebacks and provocative one-liners (remember: tough titties)? What left people in awe is that even back in the ‘80s, the 70-year-old had the guts to live life as she wanted to and totally own her story with all its vagaries, including prison time and controversies. When I complimented her on her courage and vision, she told me, ‘You all have to create your story and you have many ways to create it.’ But living life on one’s own terms isn’t easy, Ma— I complained. Surfaced the old resolute voice: ‘Not easy is not a good excuse either… To not live life in your own way is a very coward way to live,” she said with conviction, adding, “Life is tough, baby. Life’s not easy. You have to go through your crisis, don’t look for easy, don’t make it easy for yourself. Easy is for cowards. Be brave. What you have to do, you must, easy or difficult. Whatever difficulty comes, say, ‘Ah! I can do it’. The choice is always yours. It happens that sometimes you choose the wrong, then accept the consequences.” But how does one stay calm in the midst of a storm, how did she manage it? “I don’t blame my crisis and catastrophes on others. I take responsibility for my crisis, I try to analyse it understand it and I don’t put my burden on others…” And what lives with me from the meeting are her following words: ‘I can tell you one thing — I love my life!’ If you have watched the famous Netflix series Wild, Wild Country (pretty lopsided IMHO), you know about the storm she had to brave. But she lives on, inspiring generations of young women around the world. You might or might not agree with her, but you can’t take away from her that she lived fantastically, and continues to write her story. Here’s when we met I hope it inspires you to live life well. In that pursuit, let me offer you os.me blogs which serve as the guideposts on this journey Transformative Ideas The Mind and the Present: The mind and the present intersect when we are aware not only of the thoughts but also the background on which they exist.

Other than the premiere of Be Forever on TV August 19, the rest of the year saw only a trickle of merchandising. But with the new year came an abrupt acceleration when the writing team powered up the Wave-Motion Engine again. And this time, the flywheel stayed spinning.

Writer Aritsune Toyota took the lead with the text shown here. Note: the illustrations are included for decorative purposes only. They did not exist at this stage of preproduction. Story Notes Sets 6 & 7: January 16, 1982 • An Earth fleet returns from an expedition and suddenly attacks Yamato. They scream, “we’ll kill you!” at Yamato. The cause of this was an accidental appearance of charged particles in the vicinity of Earth that turned Earthlings murderous by boosting their killer instinct. • The Queen of the Water advises on a way to save the Earth. They must travel to Aquarius and gather elementary particles called Minus Quarks. The rogue Earth fleet chases after Yamato to Aquarius. AQUARIUS PROPOSAL • While on patrol, Yamato intercepts a strange tone that causes interference. It is an SOS from an Earth colony on the seventh planet of Vega. • The flagship Tegucigalpa of the Eldorado Federation of Earth demands that a ransom be paid for the people of Vega. • While Yamato rushes to get there, a lower-rank member of Tegucigalpa‘s crew goes on a wild rampage at a bar. • There is a big problem developing among members of the space force. Battles often break out and many die. Peaceful members have become alienated. Hearts are hardened, leading to extortion, racketeering, and murder. • It is the same for the crew of Yamato. They even lose their goal for a time of peace. Kodai escapes from reality through addiction to his love of Yuki. • Kodai visits the cultural center of the ministry of space and is reunited with Okita, who has been revived as a clone. Only the noble Captain Okita can correct the rampant corruption in the space forces. • Kodai, Yuki and the rest of the Yamato crew gather in a bar which has become their regular haunt. Some of the subordinates indulge in drugs and are in a wasteful mood. • Okita brings news of a rebellion in the space forces. Most of the fleet has escaped Earth and is heading for the edge of the galaxy. • Aquarius is approaching Earth for the first time in 4 billion years. Aquarius sends to Earth the mysterious tone that Yamato heard before. Like the siren Lorelei, it called out to other ships from Earth and they left to investigate. Kodai is appointed to the pursuit. • Queen Electra of the water galaxy Aquarius warns that it has been conquered by the space forces and the Earth will be submerged • The banner of revolt has been raised on Earth, and a time of war between Yamato and the space forces is coming. For Yamato, it is like a war against oneself. Story Notes Set 8: January 19, 1982 • Yamato has fought against many enemies. In the shadow of that glory were many dropouts. Ships of Earth’s space forces are withdrawing from the front, refusing missions, and even deserting in the face of the enemy. • Planet Vulcan is located in the Perseus star cluster, 7,340 light years from Earth. Vulcan is a planet in name only, orbiting a hot young star and not yet generating any form of life. It is a barren wasteland of sterile craters and blowing sand, smoke and miasma, an environment without water where no human can live. However, its mineral resources are inexhaustible. • It is also a place for those who have drifted away from life on Earth. Miners, deserters, and outlaws have gathered here. • Three people in particular bear an intense grudge against Earth and Yamato. Captain Huaynacapac is the former commander of the Orion outer-reaches patrol who once arrived late at the site of a decisive battle and left the battle line in defiance of orders. He is convinced thatYamato monopolized all the success. [Translator’s note: this character was named after a 15th-century Incan Emperor] Another is Admiral Gelden. He indulged in his love for a woman and was expelled from Earth because of delayed departure of his voyage. And the third is the former scientist Professor Kuroki who underestimated the threat of a solar supernova [in Yamato III] and was banished from Earth for the crime that lead to the solar crisis. He wants to bring water to Vulcan and change it into fertile green fields. • While on patrol, Yamato discovers Aquarius, a huge mass of water that orbits the galaxy every 4 billion years. They hear mysterious music and discover it is the language of Aquarius. Each scale expresses a vowel, and the meaning changes with combinations of chords that rise and fall several times. With this, the Queen of Aquarius issues a warning that Earth will be flooded. Yamato departs. • The three people on Vulcan develop a new form of armor to attack Yamato. It is made of a hyper metal laced with uranium that can only be made on Vulcan. They engage and damage Yamato, and the Vulcans gain confidence. • The three people also know that Aquarius is approaching Earth. Dr. Kuroki in particular wants to obtain water. Therefore, an aqua-teleporter is devised for this purpose, a device which will obtain water from Aquarius. • The Vulcans take control of Aquarius and capture the queen. • Water is transported from Aquarius to Vulcan, and turns it green and fertile. After their two victories, the three leaders burn for revenge against Yamato and Earth. • A part of the water mass wraps itself around Yamato, allowing it fight on equal footing against the Vulcans. The Vulcan fleet is defeated. • The large water mass of Aquarius surrounds the Earth and showers it with rain. • The water obtained by Vulcan begins to change. The heavy water flows through the planet’s crust into the core where it is superheated into heavy water 3 (Tritium). • The tritium turns Vulcan into a huge hydrogen bomb that explodes. • Most of the Earth is flooded and Aquarius moves on. The love of Kodai and Yuki remains, and they will become the new Adam and Eve of Earth. Something else that was needed prior to the story summit was a primer for the other team members that would set out a common agenda. Toyota drafted this as well, which was the first document to articulate the intended theme of the film (though that too would undergo significant change). Story Composition/Tentative plan for the script Space Battleship Yamato: The Concluding Chapter Producer’s Intentions January 19, 1982 1. The following SF concepts are set in stone going forward: A watery galaxy called Aquarius migrates through space. It consists of many water planets. It passed our galaxy before, when the Earth did not yet have any water (approximately 4.5 billion years ago) and water was deposited from another planet as it skimmed past. This water already contained a source of life at the time, and from there evolved single-celled organisms, bacteria, vertebrates, and finally humans. A legend which was handed down among the people of Earth is in fact true. 4 billion years after its first pass, Aquarius comes again in the 23rd century. It will pass through our galaxy and once again skim close to Earth. When that happens, more water will arrive and drown every continent on Earth in a flood crisis. The central planet of the Aquarius galaxy was the lifespring of Earth, and evolution happened at about the same rate, so humans from Earth and the people of space have common roots. They are lead by a single queen and have a spiritual civilization that Earthlings idealize. This water planet (together with its beautiful galaxy of water), has enormous energy since nuclear power is generated from burning hydrogen atoms in water. 2. The next concept is a powerful enemy. The enemy this time is a human from Earth turned evil. In this case, Earthlings left the planet several hundred (or thousand) light years away. They established an empire like Hitler’s Germany and decided to attack Earth by taking advantage of the Aquarius galaxy’s visit. How they conduct this attack can be decided later. Yamato is mobilized to seek help from Aquarius to control this empire. 3. The theme is as follows: A: Yamato discovers that Aquarius is a utopia, forgotten by humans as a result of rapid evolution, and that it is necessary for humans to evolve further. (Details to be decided later.) B: When this is discovered (by Kodai, Yuki, and the others), Yamato reaches the end of its last mission. Whether it explodes or sinks into the water, we need a majestic scene that will make you cry, with everyone saluting as Yamato solemnly disappears. C: Since all this is to be the final work, we should consider a scene that shows Kodai and Yuki having sex, a fundamentally beautiful depiction of sexual activity. This is something else that should move the audience to tears. D: Through these things, we should present the theme of “the child surpassing the parents.” 4. Other points: A: Okita is revived as the captain of the ship. Reasons for how he could be alive after death to be considered later. B: We do not necessarily have to include Dessler. 5. More ideas: (a) The Earth side (b) The powerful enemy (Germany with ultra-radical mechanisms) (c) Aquarius side Three separate designs (one based on beauty and mystery, the other with mecha based on nostalgia for WWI and WWII). Abundant ideas and a tempo like Raiders of the Lost Ark is desired. The End Continue to Part 5: Writer’s Summit Day 1 This entry was posted in Articles (Final Yamato) by TimEldred.

The weather in general was slightly warmer than the forecasts predicted, so I was able to lighten my daywear…and honor a lost crewman in the bargain. As regular Cosmo DNA readers know, I flew to Seattle in February to visit Edward Hawkins. His failing health had put him on a countdown to hospice treatment, and chances to see him were narrowing. Happily, I was able to record a few hours of conversation, which can be heard here. But there was another task at hand: helping him to catalog his remaining collection for redistribution after his passing. It began with that February visit and we tragically lost Edward in April when he checked into a hospital for the last time. When I went back to Seattle in June to help his wife Kelly continue the project (which is still underway as I write this in December), she gifted me with something special – a UNCF Cosmo Force rain jacket that she’d bought Ed for his birthday. Fate decided it was a birthday he wouldn’t live to see, so now Kelly wanted me to have it. If fate had decided differently, I think I could have talked Ed into coming along on this trip. I certainly would have tried my best. Long story short (yeah, I know, too late) this was the day I finally unwrapped the jacket and wore it in his honor for the rest of the week. As I put it on, I recalled forbidding both Edward and Derek Wakefield to clock out before seeing the new movie. I wouldn’t be fair for the rest of us to sit through it with thoughts like, “___ will never see this one.” But now that is our burden. At least Ed’s jacket got to see it. The second viewing was much better than the first, since Roger and I weren’t still battling jet lag. We both saw scenes we didn’t remember from 48 hours earlier, which told us when we must have nodded off. (It doesn’t help that these theaters aren’t properly air-conditioned, and the warmth tricks your body into thinking you’re snug in bed.) Anyway, all the pieces of the story fit into place and Ark proved itself as good as any episode of 2199. Spotted at Mandarake in Nakano: original Captain Okita layout and the ultra-rare Franklin Mint pewter Yamato. Next on the agenda was a visit to the unsurpassable Nakano Broadway mall, world headquarters of the mighty Mandarake, world’s largest source of second-hand otaku swag. There are at least a dozen Mandarake stores in Broadway, each with its own specialty, and a good dozen similar stores besides. Before I ever went to Japan I dreamed of stores like Mandarake, but the real place is even weirder. Even if you find nothing to buy, you are guaranteed to see something you never imagined. It could be a museum. Speaking of which, the rest of the day was filled up with our first-ever pilgrimage to the Studio Ghibli Museum in the outer suburb of Mitaka. It’s easy to get to, just a few stops on the Chuo line past Nakano, and then a 10-minute ride on the Ghibli cat bus (not the furry one). Others have written plenty about the museum, so the only thing I’ll add is that it’s the most charming and magical place I’ve ever f**king seen. And your chances of getting inside are exponentially better if you have a friend in Japan who can get tickets for you. The overseas ticket service sells out months in advance. See the December 8 photojournal here. Tuesday, December 9 This day was quite the whirlwind, meaning we spent most of it traveling in a circle. The JR Yamanote train line makes a big loop around metro Tokyo. A woman who grew up there once told me she and her friends would spend entire Saturdays riding the loop and reading manga. For all I know, such things still go on today. Starting at our home base in Shinjuku (at the 9 o’clock position on the loop), Daniel, Roger and I headed up to Ikebukuro (11 o’clock) for today’s movie – the first compilation film for Attack on Titan. It was playing at a somewhat-past-its-prime theater called the Cinema Sunshine, and bundles up the first 13 episodes into two hours and change. We’d all sampled a little of the TV anime, so this was a chance to take a big gulp. Thanks to the manga, I had no trouble following the story, but this may not be the best way to absorb it. By definition, a compilation film contains the most important scenes, and in this case they’re the most intense. What you end up with is two-plus hours of intense, angst-filled scenes without a break, which is pretty exhausting. But the animation holds up so well you’d think it was made for the big screen. A followup trailer announced another film to come in 2015 (eps 14-26) and the second TV series in 2016. Between that, the live-action film, and the Marvel Comics crossover, there will be no shortage of Titans upon which to attack. Moving on to Akihabara (2 o’clock position) we stopped for lunch at Maru Go – touted in previous Yamatours as the best tonkatsu restaurant on Earth. It still holds the lead with ease. Everyone reading this is REQUIRED to eat there if you visit Tokyo, or else. Onward to Shimbashi station (4 o’clock position), we hopped over to the Yurikamome line for Hinode Pier, with the goal of boating across the bay to our next destination, Odaiba island. And not just any boat – we were looking for Leiji Matsumoto’s space-age waterbus Himiko (last seen in Yamatour 2009 spring), which has been recently joined by a sister ship named Hotaluna. Either would be fine. Even better, one going out and the other coming back. Alas, Himiko was out for maintenance and Hotaluna‘s schedule would have wrecked our day. So…next time. Anyway, getting to Odaiba was easy. We just continued on the Yurikamome line across Rainbow Bridge over the bay and hopped off at Diver City mall where Gundam stands tall. Just about every anime fan who’s been to Tokyo has seen the 1/1 Gundam statue by now, and it’s always impressive even if you’re not a Gundam fan. (Roger isn’t one, and even he had it on his short list.) But every time the subject of Gundam Front is brought up on Facebook or wherever, it seems someone didn’t know about that part of it – the Gundam-themed pavillion inside Diver City Mall. Gundam Front continues and enhances the experience that starts outside, with a 180-degree dome movie that swirls around your head and several interior rooms with art, models, and more. And even if you’ve been to it, it’s worth revisiting – I’ve been inside three times now (each a little over a year apart) and there’s been something new each time. The movie changes slightly, and a second one was added this year for the 35th anniversary. Another standout was 2013’s 1/100 White Base model (see it here), which was replaced this year by human-size Gundam, Guntank, and Guncannon figures. Afterward we completed the Yamanote circle, regrouped, and shot back out to Nakano for a cozy okonomiyaki dinner with Sonchori Ha, the mighty Cat Hands Agent himself. This is where I want to plug his services, which are open to all who hunger for the hard-to-get treasures you regularly hear about in the 2199 reports. Sonchori will bid, order, receive, pack, and ship whatever you’re after. He’s got clients all over the world, and I’ve been a steady once since 2006. Visit his website here, your gateway from coveting to acquiring. As you may have noticed, there wasn’t a whole lot of Yamato to report on today. That changed big time the next day. See the December 9 photojournal here. Wednesday, December 10 Today we took an expedition into unknown territory. Step 1 was to puzzle out a previously-untried train line. There are several lines that serve different parts of Tokyo, owned and operated by different companies. Chief among these is the JR line, but there are also the subways and a host of others. The Odakyu line is based in the Odakyu department store in Shinjuku, and its many stations (one of which, incidentally, is named Yamato) serve the suburbs to the southwest. The station in our sights was in a town named Ebina. It’s always a bit nerve-wracking (for me, anyway) to step off the familiar umbilical of the JR system, since you never quite know what you’re in for. I’m still haunted by that wrong step Andrea Controzzi and I took back in spring 2009 that shot us past our destination and into a region devoid of English. I especially didn’t want a repeat of that today, since Daniel George was headed back home to Australia in the afternoon. But when I asked him if an expedition outside Tokyo on his last morning made him nervous, he wasn’t phased at all. (Nothing short of an earthquake could have rattled him by this time.) To my relief, the Odakyu line presented no obstacles at all. If anything, it was simpler than the JR network since we were starting from a terminus and English was plentiful. Besides, the stations all had numbers, so we would have been fine even without English. From door to train car was less than 10 minutes. And what were we headed for? A Yamato 2199 Art Exhibition. This is the exhibition that launched in April (read about the opening here) and traveled from city to city throughout the summer. I thought for sure it would return to Tokyo for the Ark premiere, but weeks went by with no such announcement. Instead, a “satellite gallery” version was trumpeted just about a week before our launch, at a Marui department store in Ebina. Google Earth showed me where it was and the Odakyu website told me how to get there. So at least we could get a taste. After a little under an hour, we stepped out into a wide shopping plaza that exactly matched my reference photos, but no sign of anything 2199-related was immediately apparent. I knew we had to find an event space on the 2nd floor of Marui, but no such thing turned up on a floor map. On the other hand, a Toho Cinema was close by. Thinking it was probably showing the film, we took a look inside. Sure enough, they had Ark, and a sign for the exhibition greeted us just inside the door. Naturally, we had to eyeball the theater merch before moving on. There wasn’t as much as we saw at Shinjuku Piccadilly (no copies of 2199 Complete Works, for example), but they had a nice collection of model kits and even the paper model of the bridge, which I’d assumed was out of print because of its rarity elsewhere. Walking back into Marui, we happened to pick just the right direction. The unmistakable contours of the 2199 key art appeared just ahead, and our eyes got big when we saw something we didn’t expect: the OTHER 1/100 Yamato model. I say “other” here because we’d seen the first one at the Piccadilly’s lower lobby. As you may recall, it was discovered in the November 2199 report that two of these babies were built. And now we could confirm it with our own eyes. Even better, this one was brightly lit and we could get much closer to it. So we all whipped out our cameras and began to make sweet, sweet photographic love. See our photos of the model here. After thoroughly, uh, documenting it from bow to stern and back again, we wandered into the exhibit itself. I didn’t expect it to be large, and in fact it only covered a few square meters, tucked compactly into an area surrounded by ladies wear. Nonetheless, it had a prodigious selection of merch that we recognized from previous exhibits and a big lineup of model kits including the first 1/1000 Gatlantis ship (which we hadn’t yet seen in Tokyo). Around the corner from this was the exhibition itself: a few dozen art pieces, consisting equally of mecha, character layouts, and color prints of paintings. The color prints were actually for sale, at several hundred dollars apiece. It was easy to see why, since they were either signed and numbered, or just simply gigantic. Prints of Masanori Nishii’s key art for Ark of the Stars stood a good four feet tall. However, the clear standouts in all this were several of the original paintings for the Agent 9 storybook from Episode 9, surprisingly large and absolutely stunning. Video images do not do them justice. All this art is in print, but seeing it in person is a different experience. What amazed us the most was the machine-like precision of the mecha layouts. The linework was unquestionably drawn in pencil – subtle gradations and overlaps were evident – but their uniformity and sharpness make you question how they could possibly be the product of a human hand. It’s necessary because these drawings are scanned into a computer and solidified, rather than retraced with ink on a cel, and all the painting takes place from there. There isn’t enough time to do this for every mecha scene, so it is limited to those that don’t require movement. For that you rely on CG. It’s the need for consistency between the two realms that requires such impressive craftsmanship. After about an hour we were ready to depart, but had to get pics of ourselves with the model first. Since we were the only spectators at the moment, the exuberant young lady behind the merch counter was happy to oblige. She was so giggly and excited we wondered if we were the first people she’d seen all day, let alone the first foreign Yamato fans who she’d seen at all. Side note: Local foreigners didn’t count. During our initial photo session, an American mother walked by with her young daughter and said “look at the big submarine! It’s from the movie!” If we’d been more on our game, the three of us would have turned around in unison and said, “SUBMARINE???” The counter girl dutifully took each of our cameras in turn, art-directed us for the best angle, and snapped away. All smiles, she exchanged gleeful salutes with us and sent us on our way, returning to her vigil with a new story to tell. After grabbing lunch at a sort-of-Italian “family restaurant,” we got back to Tokyo about an hour later, and it was time to say goodbye to Daniel. Fully loaded with his own stories, he would fly back home through a complete seasonal flip from winter to summer with a full 50-degree temperature difference from start to finish. And yet, he barely left the time zone. Weeeeird. Roger and I spent the rest of that day amongst the thriving otaku community of Akihabara, hoofing it from store to store in search of hobby treasure. In my first visit here, I took a day and a half to look inside every store, and learned that no one ever has to do that. Stores that carry new stuff have pretty much the same stock at the same price, so just pick your winners and stick with them. In case you’re keeping score, my own “hit list” consists of Yodobashi Camera (with their massive hobby and figure department and the last Tower Records on Earth), K-Books at the newly-reopened Radio Kaikan, the Volks hobby showroom, Cospa (for stylish anime wear), and the multi-floor Mandarake. There are smaller vintage shops with older stuff, but you’ll need more time than we had if you want to include those. The highlight at Yodobashi was the single largest stock of Yamato model kits we’d seen in one place (with abundant copies of everything released so far) and a fair number of the classic kits besides. Just an aisle or two away were Megahouse’s Yamato Girls figures and Cosmo Fleet miniatures. Easy one-stop shopping if you lack time to go deeper. My only disappointment that day was not finding the newest 2199 book, which had been published the day before. The hunt was still on for that. Dinner that evening was at a busy yakitori restaurant in Kabuki-cho with Gwyn Campbell and Renato Rivera Rusca (who we’d previously seen on Saturday). After catching up on the latest news, I asked Gwyn if he had any explanation for a phenomenon we’d seen since arrival: the prevalence of mini-skirts and bare legs on young ladies who were otherwise sensibly bundled against the cold. They seemed as inhuman to me as those who wear layers of business clothes on the hottest summer days without breaking a sweat. It turned out Gwyn had asked this question himself shortly after moving to Japan several years ago. Spotting a couple girls with this same attire, he asked them how they could stand the cold, and they answered that it was “women’s pride.” Pride in their style choices, that is. They were determined not to surrender to mother nature. Bravo, ladies. You have the respect of men everywhere. Just don’t stand still for too long. See the December 10 photojournal here. Thursday, December 11 Three viewings of a new Yamato movie in its opening week have been the norm for me since Resurrection. You can’t count on a big-screen opportunity ever again, so you really should make a full-course meal of it. These three screenings are the jet-lag pass, the make-up pass, and the full-absorption pass. Roger and I did the third one this morning, catching the first show of the day at the Piccadilly. I dutifully took down story notes so I could write as accurate a synopsis as possible, which can be read here. Hopefully the next viewing will be a subtitled blu-ray. Incidentally, it was learned during this week that a 2-disc CD soundtrack for Ark of the Stars is due out in late February, along with a new live concert disc by Akira Miyagawa. Everyone likes to gang up Yamato news and product releases for maximum buzz, so maybe we’ll at least get a date for the blu-ray then. After the film, the next mission was to finally and conclusively hunt down the last new 2199 product of premiere week, a book titled Astronomy seen in Yamato 2199. It had proven to be remarkably elusive since it came out on Tuesday. Kinokuniya bookstore in Shinjuku was my last, best hope of finding it. It’s available from Amazon.jp, of course, but it’s always WAY more fun to find it in person. It could only be in one of two sections: the anime books or the space books. Checked anime books first. Nothing. Walked up to a clerk, did my best to explain what I was looking for, waited for a minute…BINGO. Go to the space section on the fourth floor, she said. It will be held for you there. I should add at this point that I surprised myself quite often this trip with how much Japanese I could speak. I have just one language-instruction audio book that I review before a trip, and each year I pick up a little more from it. This year I was somehow able to construct sentences on the fly that I wouldn’t have even thought of a week earlier. They were very rudimentary (I’m looking for this, do you have that, one ticket please), but they always seemed to get the job done. A couple minutes later we arrived at the space section and there it was. No wonder we couldn’t find it in anime-oriented book stores. It’s a paperback textbook using Yamato 2199 as a framework for astronomy and astro physics. No surprise, it’s written by science advisor Toshihiro Handa. Probably based on his numerous lectures. It’s all color, loaded with art, and will look great on your shelf. Roger and I bought two of their three copies, but there’s always Amazon. After this, Roger and I were planning on splitting up for the rest of the day. I was off for more book-digging and a special event. After six days of high-paced ramrodding from one point to another, he was ready to for an actual vacation day. For me, the ideal vacation day is a stroll through Jimbocho. Jimbocho is home to some major publishers and adjacent to a university. That means it’s full of bookstores, new and used. I always find great loot here, though I came up dry in my search for a couple of obscure early-90s magazines with some vintage Yamato content. That particular search continues, but it wasn’t my only reason to drop in. I love walking past the compact storefronts, packed as full as possible with preserved thought waiting to be explored. I can’t decode even 1% of it, which makes me basically an illiterate. Instead, I have the freedom to imagine the depth and breadth of these stacks, optimistically packaged as a gift to the future. It’s especially satisfying on a drizzly day like this one; defiance of both time and the elements with the purest expression of civilization. See a gallery of these exquisite storefronts in today’s photojournal. The concluding event of the day was truly unique. In all the time I’ve been coming here, one of the things I’ve always wanted to do was get inside an actual anime studio and see something in production. That’s my day job at Marvel, after all. Anime in general and Yamato in particular inspired me to pursue this career, and I’m intensely curious about how our industries compare. Well, this year, as a Marvel employee, I finally got a taste. There’s also a Marvel studio in Tokyo, which is part of the Disney operation there. They do a series called Disc Wars Avengers, which has no relationship to anything that goes on in the states. It is entirely its own animal. A member of our L.A. studio named Yurika is the liaison to the Tokyo crew, and Disc Wars is her main project. She’s Japanese by birth and we talk every so often about what goes back and forth. (She’s even helped out with an occasional translation for Cosmo DNA, which is a nice bonus.) Before I left on this trip, I asked Yurika if there was any way I could connect with someone on the Tokyo side just to say hello. She didn’t know if this was possible, but she’d give it a shot. On Tuesday I got the word that they would be happy to have me in to watch a voice recording for the latest episode, and Thursday was the day for it. It even turned out that the studio was close to my hotel. I met up with the local rep, a fine fellow named Scott, who lead me to my first surprise: the recording work was being done at Tavac. I stopped at the front door with my mouth hanging open. I recognized their logo from a hundred anime end-credit rolls, but had no idea what it was until now. I also thought it was pronounced “tabak,” based on the raw pronunciation. But instead it’s an acronym for Toei Animation Video something-or-other. (Scott didn’t know, either.) I was asked not to share any photos of the actual session, but it was interesting to learn that other Toei programs are recorded in this same building, including One Piece. However, neither Disc Wars nor One Piece will be here for long, since the building is no longer up to earthquake code and is scheduled for demolition. The same is apparently true of the Toei Museum, which was visited in Yamatour 2009. I imagine both buildings are equally full of history. From start to finish, the voice-acting session (called “afreco”, for “after recording”) was fascinating. US actors only have a script and each other to work from. Japanese actors respond to an animatic, which is a slideshow consisting of storyboards, roughs, and layouts that have already been assembled into a blueprint of the finished episode. We make animatics as well, and the level of drawing is about the same. The difference is, we build ours using the actor’s voices. In Japan, artists have to guess how a line will sound and how long it will take to say it. That’s a whole different skill set. Voice actors bring their own skills to the mic as well, nailing every line-length with absolute precision, often in the first read-through. After a full viewing of the episode with a warmup run, they go one act at a time, reading it live from start to finish exactly like a radio play. Everyone in the room manuevers around each other like dancers, positioning themselves to be on-mic at just the right moment. After an act, they pause for input and go back through it a second time. Sometimes they redo the whole thing, other times they focus on only a few lines. After one or two cleanup rounds, they move on to the next act. They commenced at 4pm to record episode 42 of Disc Wars Avengers and finished just a little after 7. The entire cast was there for it, which was pretty rare. Schedules often clash and individuals have to be recorded separately. It’s the same on our side. But in both cases, the esprit de corps that arises from a full ensemble draws out their best performances. Watching this in person the closest you can get to having live anime happen in front of you, and it made me think about those lucky fans who got to watch a live Yamato recording session back in the day. Incidentally, everyone seemed happy to see me. They knew that I’d come to town for Yamato, which they’d all seen and enjoyed as well. They even had some industry gossip to share; word on the street was that post-production had been completed only on Wednesday, December 3. The same day I left home. This must be the luxury of digital film distribution, but it also explained why there was no simultaneous blu-ray. There was probably a cutoff point in the fall when that decision had to be made, and it was. But like I said earlier, we’ll get one sooner or later. See the December 11 photojournal here. See samples of Disc Wars Avengers on Youtube here and here Friday, December 12 The last days is always bittersweet. The experiences we came for were all achieved and we were ready to see home again. When the daily walking routes between hotel and train station start to get routine, you know it’s time. Our Narita Express was due at 2:40pm, so we had a few hours for one last taste. We spent the first half at the Shinjuku Piccadilly once more, this time to see Chapter 6 of the live-action Patlabor: The Next Generation. We’d heard mixed reviews about it, so weren’t prepared for a masterpiece, but were pleasantly surprised. The character interaction has exactly the same flavor as the anime, and the mecha action (a combination of CG and practical) was far better than we’d been lead to believe. (Hi, Gwyn!) The films are broken into 45-minute episodes, so we got to see two in one sitting. The first (Ep 10) had a perfect balance of humor and action. The second (Ep. 11) was all character drama, focused on the main female, which was fine in and of itself but kind of letdown after a rollicking first half. Incidentally, Ep. 10 had two live-action Yamato actors in it (Kato and Dr. Sado), which is always nice to see. Before flight time I’d gathered up downloads of all the previous Patlabor TNG chapters, intending to watch one per night as a lead-in. Never watched one minute. For that matter, I never turned on the TV in my hotel room. Not on this trip nor any previous trip. This may be unthinkable to some of you, but it has simply never been a priority. Exiting the Piccadilly for the last time, we took one more walk past the Yamato Christmas display, which will live on now only in photos. Next was a return to Nakano Broadway to rendezvous with Sonchori Ha (Cat Hands Agent) and hand off our “overages.” In other words, stuff we bought that wouldn’t fit in the luggage. This happens more often than not, and he’s always accommodating. After all, he bills us for the privilege. That gave us 90 more minutes to loiter around inside Broadway itself and soak in all that otaku bounty. Unable to buy any more big-ticket items, we treated it as a museum experience and it didn’t disappoint. The unmistakable contours of Yamato‘s bow caught my eye from several yards away, which turned out to be a cel – one of several that had just been added to Mandarake’s auction showcase. Evidently some collector decided the time was right. A mix of genga (layouts) and cels, they each had a starting bid of 6000 yen (between $50 and $60 US) except for Domel; a great closeup that was irrevocably marred by someone’s clumsy attempt to draw in a missing mouth. Thus, it was starting at 2500 yen. The ideal winner would be another collector who got the mouth cel for cheap somewhere else. I refer to the final outing as the “lightning round,” but this one was slow and leisurely…until we got back to Nakano station, that is. Normally the Chuo Rapid can whip you back to Shinjuku in 5 minutes, but it repeatedly failed to appear as those minutes ticked away. With just 45 minutes until our ride left for the airport, the PA announced a delay. Our temperatures rose, and just as we decided to commit to the local line (twice the length) the rapid came whizzing in. Step one done. Hurrying out of Shinjuku station and back to the hotel, we had to collect all the luggage we’d left there and hightail it back out to the curb for a taxi. Fortunately, there was one. Step two done. Then came the same obstacle I seem to hit every damn year. There are several entrances to Shinjuku station (which they call “exits” instead), and you want the one closest to your track. For the Narita Express, that is the southeast exit, or (as I’ve seen it rendered MANY TIMES) “higashi minami guchi.” Yet, most cab drivers faceplant against that phrase. Maybe I’m saying it wrong, so I pulled out a photo of it. With our guy today, that only created more confusion. I’ve also heard it called the “new south exit,” but saying that only made it worse. The seconds are pounding away in time with our throbbing brains when I finally put together this sentence: “Is there a map of the station?” He pulls one out, I point to the spot and say, “kochira” (“here”). That does it. Step three done. Five minutes later, he pulls up, we extract our luggage, and I ask him (again, in Japanese), “what is the name of here?” He carefully pronounces it: “Toh nan guchi.” I memorize it for next time, thank him, tip him, and we’re off. Step four done. With six minutes to go, we navigate the quickest possible route to the track, which I worked out several visits ago. It mercifully involves elevators and an escalator, so the only real trick is maneuvering our bags through the slim gates. We step onto the platform at the exact moment the Narita Express pulls to a stop. Step five done. Lots of people want to go with us, apparently, and the conductor rushes them aboard. Roger and I are the last ones on and there is only enough time for me to mutter “Holy sh-” before the train starts moving under our feet. All steps done. That, my friends, is a lightning round. As it happens, there was one more such moment to come. We worked our way through all the exit steps at the airport: bag check, security check, passport check, souvenir check, and settled in for airport sushi, the traditional last meal for every Yamatour. We sit down and order. And wait. And wait. Roger is scheduled to fly out first, and his gate is right outside the restaurant. Twenty minutes to final boarding. Fifteen. Ten. Sushi shows up. Gobble gobble gobble. Five. Pay up. Solid, manly handshake. Who knows when we’ll see each other next? I watch as he hustles over to his gate. Here’s what he told me about it later: How close was it out of NRT? When I got to the gate the agent asked “Mr. Sorensen?” Yep. Last one to board. Epilogue: The other punch line I wrote at the beginning about missing Premium Night, which was thoughtfully scheduled for the FIRST TIME EVER on a Thursday. Now here’s the other punchline. Far too late to do anything about it, I learned that if we’d stayed just one more day we could have seen the final Hobbit movie in Tokyo. Five days before it came out at home. I was forcibly reminded of this every day as new ads went up all over the city. My response was the same to each one: “Dammit, Hobbit!” That, too, was another first. I can attest that I’ve never uttered that phrase in Japan before. Hope I never need to again. See the December 12 photojournal here. See a bonus “goofy English” gallery here.

Savvy soap fans assumed that would be the case and also recognize that the title of this feature is a play on words. Hope Spencer (Annika Noelle) was the obsession Thomas was trying to break. Then, his perceived involvement with a Hope For the Future Mannequin, that was built to resemble the head of Forrester Creations line, became overwhelming. What’s been building through the fall hasn’t been the same old storyline, but something different. Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Dinner Proved To Be Important If Hope hadn’t been able to join Thomas and Douglas Forrester (Henry Samiri) for dinner, Samiri’s character would have been alone when his dad collapsed. While Douglas is a super smart young man and likely would have gotten help, the situation would have been highly traumatic. Thomas’ condition made him believe that Hope returned to his apartment, having forgotten her purse. Then, he told her his true feelings and they kissed for an extended period of time. Liam Spencer’s (Scott Clifton) arrival at the exactly wrong time allowed him to see what he thought was a Lope betrayal, rather than his witness of Thomas’ health problems in full view. Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Hope Spencer Gains New Perspective Hope is a kind-hearted person who chooses to see the best in people. As part of that personality trait she’s been hopeful that Thomas has been making progress. Thomas truly has been trying to will himself into a state of normalcy, but he didn’t know that his serious health issue was causing the mannequin projections. That’s why it was useful for Hope to be the person who was with Thomas while he was in his fantasy state and when he collapsed. The perspective she’s gained changes the dynamic between them and establishes a new baseline of understanding. The Bold and The Beautiful Spoilers: Thomas Survives Operation, Hope Realizes She Loves Him View Story Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Thomas Forrester Can Evolve B&B wrote Thomas’ off-balance behavior into the show before Atkinson joined the cast in 2019. In modern times, this terrific actor’s performances, along with solid scripts and the efforts of his stellar castmates, allows fresh territory to be explored. Viewers saw Thomas as a villain because his words and actions were destructive. But now that connected B&B characters and the audience have a deeper understand of this man they’ll be able to root for a legitimate redemption storyline.

A new Chromax Black version of their NH-U12A has also launched (this article contains affiliate links) Published: 12th October 2021 | Source: Noctua | Author: Mark Campbell Noctua launches black versions of their A12x25 fans and NH-U12A coolers It's finally here. Noctua has finally released black Chromax versions of their NF-A12x25 fans and their NH-U12A CPU cooler, adding some much-needed alternatives to Noctua's iconic brown and beige colour scheme. Additionally, Noctua has released NA-HC7 and NA-HC8 series heatsink covers for their NH-U12A heatsinks, giving users of the heatsink even more customisation options. Noctua's NF-A12x25 series fans were launched in 2018, becoming one of the first fan manufacturers to utilise the ultra-stiff sterrox material for their fan blades. At launch, Noctua's NF-A12x25 fans were amongst the best available on the market, both for airflow and static pressure focused use cases. Now, these premium fans will be available in black. That's good news for everyone who dislikes Noctua's traditional brown and beige colour scheme. The NH-U12A is Noctua's only heatsink that uses the company's premium NF-A12x25 fans. Noctua's NH-U12A launched in 2019 and was created to deliver levels of cooling performance that could match larger heatsinks from their competitors. 140mm cooling performance within the 120mm heatsink form factor. Now, this heatsink will be available in black, improving the aesthetic of Noctua's high-performance 120mm heatsink. Starting today, Noctua's Chromax black NF-A12x25 fans and NH-U12A heatsinks will be available to purchase at Noctua's retail partners. Amazon links to these products are available below. Purchasing Links - Amazon - NH-U12A chromax.black: EUR/USD 119.90 - UK £TBC - NF-A12x25 PWM chromax.black.swap: EUR/USD 32.90 - UK £29.90 The Future of Noctua We have included Noctua's most recent hardware roadmap at the bottom of this article for those who are interested. This roadmap includes new products like Noctua's next-generation 140mm fans and next-generation NH-D15 heatsink alongside 24V to 12V voltage converters. Noctua's 24V to 12V converters will be of interest to fans of 3D printing, as Noctua's smaller fan sizes have proven popular as silent replacements for many of the fans available on most stock 3D printers. Since most 3D printers operate their fans at 24V and Noctua's fans operate as 12V, voltage conversion hardware is required to allow Noctua's fans to run using 24V power connections. This quarter, Noctua also plans to release an 8-way PC fan hub, a first for Noctua.

High end fans have always been that price. Some of them are north of £40 each if you want the RGB to go with it. If you chop and change your rig yearly or less? these aren't for you. If you appreciate quality products that last for years and years? you pay it. I really like Noctua fans. Always have, function over looks for sure. However, in certain builds I care more about the looks and they got kinda stagnant for a few years. Hardly changing their designs etc, so I switched over to Bionic Eloop. These though? are their latest design which I haven't used yet, but would if I really wanted to go nuts. For now I will stick with the Bionics, but may well try these out at some point. I have not air cooled anything in over 10 years (AIOs and water) but if I was on air I would always choose Noctua. In fact, I recently needed some AF fans so instead of buying tat I bought some of their Redux. They've been excellent.Quote 13-10-2021, 19:05:52 Kei Good fans have not always been that expensive. I bought my gentle typhoons for...£9.98+vat in 2013. I am still using them today. TBH, having tried out the arctic P12 and P14 for my server which runs 24/7. I think that is where my money will go when I eventually have to replace the nidecs. Sure they aren't quite as good as the noctua but when you can get nearly 10 of them for the price of a single noctua, they make a lot of sense. To fit all noctuas in my case would cost nearly £400 vs £55 for arctic.Quote Reply Related Content Microsoft's Xbox Series S Appears to be the King of Black Friday Console Sales Misc Hardware | 29th November 2021 Intel's new 12th Gen Alder Lake CPUs now have Black Friday Discounts CPU & Mainboard | 22nd November 2021 Noctua latest low profile CPU coolers are ready for LGA1700 and Alder Lake CPU & Mainboard | 9th November 2021 Noctua enters the GPU market with an Ultra-Quiet RTX 3070 GPU & Displays | 4th October 2021 The Wait Is Almost Over - Noctua's Best Fans will Soon be Available in black Cases & Cooling | 30th September 2021 Have a look at ASUS's Noctua cooled RTX 3070 GPU GPU & Displays | 30th September 2021 Thermaltake launches new Turquoise and Racing Green version of their TOUGHFAN 12 fans Cases & Cooling | 1st September 2021 Noctua plans to offer free LGA1700 upgrade kits for Intel's Alder Lake processors Cases & Cooling | 17th August 2021 Phanteks hopes to eat Noctua's lunch with their T30 fans Cases & Cooling | 13th August 2021 Noctua's Fully Passive NH-P1 CPU Heatsink has been Listed Online CPU & Mainboard | 7th June 2021 Noctua confirms that its Passive CPU Cooler is "Coming Very Soon" Cases & Cooling | 17th May 2021 ASUS' ROG RYUJIN II series CPU coolers come with a larger screen and Noctua fans Cases & Cooling | 22nd April 2021 © Copyright Time To Live Media 2012-2021 About | Awards | Advertising | RSS Feed CSS Valid XHTML 1.0 Valid x Register for the OC3D Newsletter Subscribing to the OC3D newsletter will keep you up-to-date on the latest technology reviews, competitions and goings-on at Overclock3D.

Hitman 3 PC Performance Review and Optimisation Guide | Graphics Settings Comparisons - Low, Medium, High and Ultra | Software | OC3D Review Home Content All Audio Cases & Cooling CPU & Mainboard GPU & Displays Input Devices Memory PSUs Storage Software Systems Misc.

For the comparisons below, we created Low, Medium, High and Ultra settings for Hitman 3, and they are set up as follows. - Low - Super Sampling set to 1.0, Anisotropic Filtering set to 16x, Variable Rate Shading set to off, Simulation Quality Set to Base, and all other settings set to Low - Medium - Super Sampling set to 1.0, Anisotropic Filtering set to 16x, Variable Rate Shading set to off, Simulation Quality set to Best, and all other settings set to Medium/Normal -High - Super Sampling set to 1.0, Anisotropic Filtering set to 16x, Variable Rate Shading set to off, Simulation Quality set to Best, and all other settings set to High -Ultra - Super Sampling set to 1.0, Anisotropic Filtering set to 16x, Variable Rate Shading set to off, Simulation Quality set to Best, and all other settings set to Ultra and High (where Ultra options are not available) While there are lower than low settings within Hitman 3, we feel that these settings are not worth using on most systems. Plenty of scalability is offered with our Low, Medium, High, and Ultra settings, and testing more configurations adds significantly to our testing workload. When moving from our Low to Medium settings, draw distances for grass and LOD pop-in is reduced significantly. This makes Hitman's visuals more consistent and prevents a lot of noticeable pop-in for higher detail models and other assets. While low settings look pretty good in Hitman 3, higher settings are preferable if you have strong enough hardware. (Low VS Medium) At high settings draw distances are pushed further out, shadows become more details and less pixelated and pop-in is significantly reduced. This is an ideal setup for those who want a high-fidelity experience without pushing settings too high and framerates too low on mid-range GPUs. (Medium VS High) At Ultra settings, Hitman 3's draw distances are pushed further out and the game's pop-in issues become even harder to notice. Otherwise, it is hard to tell the difference between High and Ultra settings, and screen space reflections are not much sharper and ambient occlusion is not much better looking than before.

Even if you’ve fully accepted that the relationship has come to a close, actually letting the person go isn’t something that you can snap your fingers and have magically happen. For some people, it takes a long time to move on. One thing that can help is to focus on what you’ve learned from the relationship. “Every disappointment is a learning moment,” Tina B. Tessina, Ph.D., aka Dr. Romance, psychotherapist and author of Love Styles: How to Celebrate Your Differences, tells Bustle. “After the initial upset, review the dynamics of the relationship and analyze what went wrong, what you could have done better and what you learned. There’s no need to give yourself a hard time about it. Just process the information, so you don’t repeat mistakes.” You broke up for a reason — and remember that reason is a good way to remind yourself why you shouldn’t be with that person. But even if you think you’re over it, it can be difficult to know for sure. It’s something we like to kid ourselves about. Most of us have had that friend who won’t stop talking about how over someone they are — all while obsessively talking about that person. Some of us have been that person (*raises hand*). So how do you know you’ve really moved on? Here’s what you need to ask yourself. 1. Are You Still In A Lot Of Contact? Being friends with your ex is a gray area. Some people think it’s a no-go, some think it’s fine. But if you are in contact with them, just be honest— is it a ‘just friends’ amount of contact? My friend just broke up with a girl and they still text about every hour. They say they are ‘just friends’. They are frigging kidding themselves. 2. How Does The Idea Of Them With Someone Else Feel? Think you’re over them? Think about how would you feel if you knew they were with someone else — think of how you would feeling meeting that person. Sure, it’s always going to be awkward — that’s normal. But if it makes you feel extremely upset, emotional, jealous, or just generally like you’re spiraling into another dimension, then you may not really be over them. 3. How’s Your Stalking? I mean, this should really be a no-brainer, but if you’re stalking is off the charts then you’re not over them. Sure, lots of us check up on our exes on social media from time to time — MY FIRST BOYFRIEND HAS A RATTAIL NOW FOR CHRIST’S SAKE — but the cyberstalking needs to be in control. Those late night stalks the end up 32 weeks into their Instagram should tell you something. They should tell you that you’re not over them. 4. Are You Still Angry? They say that the opposite of love isn’t hate, it’s indifference. Being angry, hating the person, is too strong of an emotion to be over them. “Anger is a form of connection, but disinterest is a form of release. If they don’t pique your interest, you’re over them,” April Masini, New York based relationship expertand author, tells Bustle 5. How Do You Feel About Dating? If dating makes you feel neutral — like something you might be interested, but aren’t desperate to do — that’s a good sign. If you’re feeling like you couldn’t possibly face it or like you just need to meet someone as fast as you can, then you may still be hurt from your last relationship. Cool down a bit. 6. Are You Cool With Your Mutual Friends? Having mutual friends with an ex can be one of the hardest parts of a breakup. Until you’re over the person, you’re probably desperate to find every little detail out. But when you’re over it, you’re no longer obsessed. “When you’re not curious, you’re not interested, and when you’re not interested, you’ve moved on,” Masini says. 7. Are You Admitting Your Role In The Breakup? If you’re still blaming your ex for everything that went wrong — and they weren’ta toxic partner — something could be up. “When asked about why the relationship failed,” Stef Safran, a matchmaking and dating expert and owner of Stef and the City, tells Bustle. “You take responsibility for your part and don’t focus on the other person’s issues.” It’s not easy to get over an ex — and it’s not always easy to know when you’ve really moved on. It’s important to be honest with yourself. If you’re not over them, that’s OK, you just need more time. You’ll get there.

The history of the Jews in the Roman Empire (Latin: Iudaeorum Romanum) traces the interaction of Jews and Romans during the period of the Roman Empire (27 BCE – CE 476). A Jewish diaspora had migrated to Rome and to the territories of Roman Europe from the land of Israel, Anatolia, Babylon and Alexandria in response to economic hardship and incessant warfare over the land of Israel between the Ptolemaic and Seleucid empires from the 4th to the 1st centuries BCE. In Rome, Jewish communities thrived economically. Jews became a significant part of the Roman Empire's population in the first century CE, with some estimates as high as 7 million people.[1][2] Roman general Pompey conquered Jerusalem and its surroundings by 63 BCE. The Romans deposed the ruling Hasmonean dynasty of Judaea (in power from c. 140 BCE) and the Roman Senate declared Herod the Great "King of the Jews" in c. 40 BCE. Judea proper, Samaria and Idumea became the Roman province of Iudaea in 6 CE. Jewish–Roman tensions resulted in several Jewish–Roman wars between the years 66 and 135 CE, which resulted in the destruction of Jerusalem and the Second Temple and the institution of the Jewish Tax in 70 (those who paid the tax were exempt from the obligation of making sacrifices to the Roman imperial cult). Emperor Hadrian attempted to create a new colony, named Aelia Capitolina, in the area of then-razed Jerusalem, c. 130. Also in the course of the 1st and 2nd centuries CE, Christianity began to develop from Second Temple Judaism. In 313, Constantine and Licinius issued the Edict of Milan giving official recognition to Christianity as a legal religion. Constantine the Great moved the Roman capital from Rome to Constantinople ("New Rome") c. 330, sometimes considered the start of the Byzantine Empire, and with the Edict of Thessalonica in 380, Christianity became the state church of the Roman Empire. The Christian emperors persecuted their Jewish subjects and restricted their rights.[1] Contents Jews in Rome Jewish–Roman wars The diaspora Late Roman period Dispersion of the Jews in the Roman Empire See also References Further reading Jews in Rome See also: History of the Jews in Italy, Judaea (Roman province), Syria Palaestina, Hasmonean, and Herodian dynasty Siege and destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans. Painted c.1504 According to the article on Rome in The Jewish Encyclopedia, [3] Jews have lived in Rome for over 2,000 years, longer than in any other European city. They originally went there from Alexandria, drawn by the lively commercial intercourse between those two cities. They may even have established a community there as early as the second pre-Christian century, for in the year 139 BCE, the pretor Hispanus issued a decree expelling all Jews who were not Roman citizens. The Jewish Encyclopedia connects the two civil wars raging during the last decades of the first century BCE, one in Judea between the two Hasmonean brothers Hyrcanus II and Aristobulus II, and one in the Roman republic between Julius Caesar and Pompey, and describes the evolution of the Jewish population in Rome: ... the Jewish community in Rome grew very rapidly. The Jews who were taken to Rome as prisoners were either ransomed by their coreligionists or set free by their Roman masters, who found their peculiar custom obnoxious. They settled as traders on the right bank of the Tiber, and thus originated the Jewish quarter in Rome. Even before Rome annexed Judea as a province, the Romans had interacted with Jews from their diasporas settled in Rome for a century and a half. Many cities of the Roman provinces in the eastern Mediterranean contained very large Jewish communities, dispersed from the time of the sixth century BCE.[4] Rome's involvement in the Eastern Mediterranean dated from 63 BCE, following the end of the Third Mithridatic War, when Rome made Syria a province. After the defeat of Mithridates VI of Pontus, the proconsul Pompeius Magnus (Pompey the Great) remained to secure the area, including a visit to the Jerusalem Temple. The former king Hyrcanus II was confirmed as ethnarch of the Jews by Julius Caesar in 48 BC.[5] In 37 BC, the Herodian Kingdom was established as a Roman client kingdom and in 6 CE parts became a province of the Roman Empire, named Iudaea Province.[6] In the Greek cities in the east of the Roman empire, tensions often arose between the Greek and Jewish populations. Writing around 90 CE, the Jewish author Josephus cited decrees by Julius Caesar, Mark Antony, Augustus and Claudius, granting Jewish communities with a number of rights.[7] Central privileges included the right to be exempted from polis religious rituals and the permission "to follow their ancestral laws, customs and religion". Jews were also exempted from military service and the provision of Roman troops.[8] Contrary to what Josephus wants his readers to believe, the Jews did not have the status of religio licita (permitted religion) as this status did not exist in the Roman empire, nor were all Roman decrees concerning the Jews positive. Instead, the regulations were made as a response to individual requests to the emperor. The decrees were deployed by Josephus "as instruments in an ongoing political struggle for status".[9] Because of their one-sided viewpoint, the authenticity of the decrees has been questioned many times, but they are now thought to be largely authentic.[10][11][9][12] Still, Josephus gave only one side of the story by leaving out negative decisions and pretending that the rulings were universal.[13] This way, he carried out an ideological message showing that the Romans allowed the Jews to carry out their own customs and rituals; the Jews were protected in the past and were still protected by these decisions in his own time. The financial crisis under Caligula (37–41 CE) has been proposed as the "first open break between Rome and the Jews", even though problems were already evident during the Census of Quirinius in 6 CE and under Sejanus (before 31 CE).[14] Jewish–Roman wars Main article: Jewish–Roman wars Relief from the Arch of Titus in Rome depicting a menorah and other objects looted from the Temple of Jerusalem carried in a Roman triumph In 66 CE, the First Jewish–Roman War began. The revolt was put down by the future Roman emperors Vespasian and Titus. In the Siege of Jerusalem in 70 CE, the Romans destroyed much of the Temple in Jerusalem and, according to some accounts, plundered artifacts from the Temple, such as the Menorah. Jews continued to live in their land in significant numbers, the Kitos War of 115–117 notwithstanding, until Julius Severus ravaged Judea while putting down the Bar Kokhba revolt of 132–136. 985 villages were destroyed and most of the Jewish population of central Judaea was essentially wiped out – killed, sold into slavery, or forced to flee.[15] Banished from Jerusalem, which was renamed Aelia Capitolina, the Jewish population now centered on Galilee,[16] initially at Yavneh. After the Jewish-Roman wars (66–135), Hadrian changed the name of Iudaea province to Syria Palaestina and Jerusalem to Aelia Capitolina in an attempt to erase the historical ties of the Jewish people to the region.[17] In addition, after 70, Jews and Jewish Proselytes were only allowed to practice their religion if they paid the Jewish tax, and after 135 were barred from Jerusalem except for the day of Tisha B'Av. The diaspora Main article: Jewish diaspora Jewish ritual objects depicted in 2nd century gold glass from Rome Many Jews became citizens of other parts of the Roman Empire. The book of Acts in the New Testament, as well as other Pauline texts, make frequent reference to the large populations of Hellenised Jews in the cities of the Roman world. The policy towards proselytization and conversion to Judaism, which spread the Jewish religion throughout Hellenistic civilization, seems to have ended with the wars against the Romans and the following reconstruction of Jewish values for the post-Temple era. Of critical importance to the reshaping of Jewish tradition from the Temple-based religion to the traditions of the Diaspora was the development of the interpretations of the Torah found in the Mishnah and Talmud. Late Roman period Further information: History of the Jews in the Land of Israel In spite of the failure of the Bar Kokhba revolt, Jews remained in the land of Israel in significant numbers. The Jews who remained there went through numerous experiences and armed conflicts against consecutive occupiers of the Land. Some of the most famous and important Jewish texts were composed in Israeli cities at this time. The Jerusalem Talmud, the completion of the Mishnah and the system of niqqud are examples. In this period the tannaim and amoraim were active rabbis who organized and debated the Jewish oral law. A major catalyst in Judaism is Judah haNasi, who was a wealthy rabbi and one of the last tannaim, oral interpreters of the Law. He was in good standing with Roman authority figures, which aided in his ascent to being the Patriarch of the Jewish community in Palestine. The decisions of the tannaim are contained in the Mishnah, Beraita, Tosefta, and various Midrash compilations. The Mishnah was completed shortly after 200 CE, probably by Judah haNasi. The commentaries of the amoraim upon the Mishnah are compiled in the Jerusalem Talmud, which was completed around 400 CE, probably in Tiberias. In 351, the Jewish population in Sepphoris, under the leadership of Patricius, started a revolt against the rule of Constantius Gallus, brother-in-law of Emperor Constantius II. The revolt was eventually subdued by Gallus' general, Ursicinus. A pair of putti bearing a menorah, on a cast of a 2nd- or 3rd-century relief (original in the National Museum of Rome) According to tradition, in 359 Hillel II created the Hebrew calendar, which is a lunisolar calendar based on math rather than observation. Until then, the entire Jewish community outside the land of Israel depended on the observational calendar sanctioned by the Sanhedrin; this was necessary for the proper observance of the Jewish holy days. However, danger threatened the participants in that sanction and the messengers who communicated their decisions to distant communities. As the religious persecutions continued, Hillel determined to provide an authorized calendar for all time to come that was not dependent on observation at Jerusalem. Julian, the only emperor to reject Christianity after the conversion of Constantine, allowed the Jews to return to "holy Jerusalem which you have for many years longed to see rebuilt" and to rebuild the Temple. However Julian was killed in battle on 26 June 363 in his failed campaign against the Sassanid Empire, and the Third Temple was not rebuilt at that time. During the Byzantine–Sasanian War of 602–628 many Jews sided against the Eastern Roman Empire in the Jewish revolt against Heraclius, which successfully assisted the invading Persian Sassanids in conquering all of Roman Egypt and Syria. In reaction to this further anti-Jewish measures were enacted throughout the Eastern Roman realm and as far away as Merovingian France.[18] Soon thereafter, 634, the Muslim conquests began, during which many Jews initially rose up again against their Eastern Roman rulers.[19] Dispersion of the Jews in the Roman Empire Expulsion of the Jews in the Reign of the Emperor Hadrian (135 CE): How Heraclius turned the Jews out of Jerusalem. (Facsimile of a miniature in the Histoire des Empereurs, 15th-century manuscript, in the Library of the Arsenal, Paris.) Following the 1st-century Great Revolt and the 2nd-century Bar Kokhba revolt, the destruction of Judea exerted a decisive influence upon the dispersion of the Jewish people throughout the world, as the center of worship shifted from the Temple to Rabbinic authority. Some Jews were sold as slaves or transported as captives after the fall of Judea, others joined the existing diaspora, while still others remained in Judea and began work on the Jerusalem Talmud. The Jews in the diaspora were generally accepted into the Roman Empire, but with the rise of Christianity, restrictions grew. Forced expulsions and persecution resulted in substantial shifts in the international centers of Jewish life to which far-flung communities often looked, although not always unified, due to the Jewish people's dispersion itself. Jewish communities were thereby largely expelled from Judea and sent to various Roman provinces in the Middle East, Europe and North Africa. The Roman Jewry came to develop a character associated with the urban middle class in the modern age.[20] See also Library resources about yes Online books Resources in your library Resources in other libraries History of the Jews History of the Jews in the Byzantine Empire History of the Jews in Egypt History of the Jews in Italy History of the Jews in Calabria History of the Jews in Livorno History of the Jews in Naples History of the Jews in Sicily History of the Jews in Trieste History of the Jews in Turin History of the Jews in Venice History of the Jews in the Land of Israel History of the Jews in Syria References ^ a b Barraclough, Geoffrey, ed.

Built by Clydeside shipbuilders Barclay Curle & Company in Glasgow, Scotland. Laid down as yard number 644. Launched December 23, 1930 as MV Macdhui owned by Burns Philp Company, Ltd. During March 1931 departs Glasgow loaded with coat on her maiden voyage and steams via the Azores and Jamaica then transits the Panama Canal to the Pacific via Suva before reaching Sydney Harbor. Afterwards, used for passenger and cargo service between Sydney Harbor and New Guinea. The vessel had 167 first class passenger accommodations. On June 20, 1931 while underway between Madang and Lae a fire started aboard and the passengers were taken ashore in lifeboats. Afterwards, towed by MV Neptuna to Salamaua for temporary repairs then to Sydney Harbor for six weeks of further repairs. Wartime History Commandeered by the Australian Navy, MV Macdhui was placed under the command of Captain J. Campbell. At the start of World War II, Macdhui steamed to Manila to evacuate civilians to Port Moresby. Also, to evacuate woman and children from Rabaul and outlying areas to Port Moresby and then to Townsville. Those evacuated included four hundred survivors from RMS Rangitane sunk by German Raiders them left on Emirau Island. Operating as a military transport, Macdhui operated between Sydney Harbor and northern Australia transporting supplies and personnel to Port Moresby. On April 12, 1942 Australian personnel evacuated from New Britain aboard HMAS Laurabada were embarked aboard Macdhui at Port Moresby then transported to Townsville. During May 31, 1942 to June 1, 1942 delayed at Sydney Harbor due to the Japanese Midget submarines attack. On June 6, 1942 joined a convoy bound with a cargo of aviation fuel. At Townsville, embarks 154 Australian Army 39th Battalion soldiers then departs bound for Port Moresby and enters Fairfax Harbor on June 15, 1942 at 5:00pm. On June 17, 1942 docked in Fairfax Harbor off Port Moresby unloading her cargo of 44 gallon drums of aviation fuel when a Japanese air raid commenced by G4M1 Bettys escorted by A6M2 Zeros. Getting underway, Macdhui maneuvered inside the confines of Fairfax Harbor to avoid the bombs but sustained damage when a bomb exploded in the stateroom and results in ten crew killed and wounded. That night, the vessel docked again at Port Moresby. The bombing and sinking results in four Killed In Action (KIA): 1st Steward Herbert Christopher Smith (KIA) Surgeon Charles Augustus Tunstall (KIA) Steward 1st Class William John Barritt (KIA) T/Capt Murdoch Ross Macleod, VX129334 39th Battalion (KIA) Sinking History On June 18, 1942 twenty-seven G4M1 Bettys from the 4th Kokutai (4th Air Group) led by Lt Renpei Egawa took off from Vunakanau Airfield near Rabaul on a bombing mission against Port Moresby. Spotting Macdhui, they released their bombs at the vessel and bracketed the ship and scored hits amidships. The bombs set the ship ablaze and resulted in a loss of rudder control and began to drift inside Fairfax Harbor. The ship ran aground atop a coral reef off Hanubada and rolled over on her port side with the starboard side above the surface. During the attack, four went Missing In Action (MIA), one was Killed In Action (KIA) and six were Wounded In Action (WIA), three later died of their wounds: Able Seaman William Fiddes (MIA) Steward Bowman James Lawson (MIA) Second Officer David Hamilton Rawson (MIA) Butcher Arthur Thomas Richards (MIA) Waiter Henry Rosen (KIA) Steward 1st Class Wilfred George Drury (WIA died June 20, 1942) Lt Edward Bassett Money, VX129330 39th Battalion (WIA died June 21, 1942) Steward 1st Class Richard Herbert Saville (WIA died June 22, 1942) A/Sgt Ronald Malcolm Stewart, VX129390 39th Battalion (WIA) Pte Donald Gilbert Tucker, VX129391 39th Battalion (WIA) T/Cpl Stanley Arthur Watson, VX129392 39th Battalion (WIA) Meanwhile, Australian war correspondent Damien Parer recorded 16mm cine film and photographs from a nearby hill documenting the bombing and sinking. The bombing and sinking was visible to many Allied personnel stationed in the vicinity or anyone in the Port Moresby area. Captain J. Campbell ordered the crew to abandon ship using life rafts. Fates of the Crew The surviving crew used life boats to reach shore and were aided by Allied personnel including three Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) medical officers assisted the surviving crew as they reached shore.

Shipwreck The shipwreck of the MV Macdhui remains in Fairfax Harbor with her port side submerged with the starboard side above the surface at the edge of a coral reef. The shipwreck is located at Lat 9° 26' 58" S Long 147° 8' 12" E. During 1950, most of the bunker oil was removed from the shipwreck. In the 1960s, the main mast and an anchor was salvaged. In 1971 installed as a flag pole outside the Royal Papuan Yacht Club (Port Moresby Yacht Club). In 1970, Dave May and Barry May acquired the salvage rights to the shipwreck and attempted to blast off the propeller, causing an oil leak. For years into the colonial era, there was the false rumor that the ship was transporting beer for the Australian troops in the town. Today, the shipwreck is a well known landmark clearly visible from the coastal road between Hanubada and Tatana Island. During the late 2010s, a small barge grounded near the bow and sank. Artifacts After the sinking, the ship's bell inscribed "MACDHUI" was recovered from the shipwreck and displayed on a post at RAAF Air Sea Rescue marine section at Port Moresby. Postwar, the bell was donated to St. John's Church at Ela Beach. References Also spelled MacDhui in some sources. Wings Official Magazine of the RAAF "RAAF 'Fleet' Rescues" by P/O C. A.

Do you ever feel like stress and anxiety are overtaking your life? Peace, focus and creativity are slipping away and it feels like you’re your days are just about ticking off the never-ending to-do list? Welcome to the club. I’m currently a woman on a mission, and that mission is to bring back more focus, creativity and calm into my life. Here are some of the things I’ve tried so far: Lying on the bed and doing nothing else but listening to the music (I don’t think I’ve done that since I was a teenager); Leaving my phone at home, going to the park, sitting on the grass and watching people (amazing how many ideas I can come up with!); Eating the whole tub of salted caramel Häagen-Dazs instead of dinner just because I really felt like it; Deleting the junk data from my laptop; The satisfaction of looking at the uncluttered desktop – priceless; Watching the whole second season of Big Little Lies in one day and not feeling bad about it (also confirming that we don’t deserve the genius that is Meryl Streep); Staying away from my phone as much as possible – that’s the hardest but also the most rewarding thing I’ve tried in order to regain my focus; Stopped fooling myself that I’m good at multitasking. I’m not; In fact, I suck at it big time. So, doing one thing at a time, always. Amazing how much more productive and calm it made me. I’m basically trying to slow down and listen to the needs of my body and mind more. I stopped pushing the anxiety-inducing idea that I should feel busy every single minute of my day. The more I allow my mind to wander and my body to rest, the calmer and more focused I feel. And – surprise, surprise – productivity, creativity and ideas follow right behind. If you feel stressed and the sucked out of creativity, do something that you secretly wanted to do for a while but deemed a ‘waste of time’. Leave the mobile at home and go for a walk (granted, you will have at least one ‘where the hell is my phone??’ panic attack on the way but it will pass). Read a book; start writing a book; listen to the music; play with your dog; have a nap. Whatever you do, be present, enjoy it without guilt, savour like the best wine. Your mind is creative. Your body is strong. If you listen to them bit more, they will tell you what it is that you need so you can truly shine. image by @tayla Sharing is caring!

So also in photography. Anyone who has a digital camera knows it: You can actually put the camera on four wheels, send it out and use the time gained for a nap. The camera then shows you where you would have been if you hadn’t slept. Analog is of course different. Analogue photography is still manual work. Or eye, mind, soul work, maybe. Fortunately, I am not neuro-typical and therefore not entirely “normal”. Therefore no digital camera comes into my house.

It was only through the web that I found sufficient information about ADHD, high sensitivity, autism and other related areas. This blog is about these topics, and in this post, I list some of the important things to me.

At what age should a child start working? Is it their “job” to pay for the extras, or even the necessities, in their lives? Or is their “job” to navigate school, get into (and out of) college and then support themselves? These questions have been popping up in my in-box lately. Item No. 1: Over at the Wall Street Journal’s Web site this weekend, Jeff P. Opdyke raised them in an essay titled “Should I Make My 13-year-old Get a Job?” Yes, he knows that child labor laws would make most employment illegal at that age, but there are options, his father writes — like becoming a referee at community soccer games. Yet when Opdyke and his wife decided that the boy really should be paying for more of his electronic doodads out of money earned himself, they discovered he had no work ethic. And, his father realizes, this is mostly his parents’ fault: So, why, you no doubt ask, don’t I just tell him to get a job? It may come to that. But in truth, I’m torn. Part of me wants him to work so that he can appreciate what it means to earn money, to understand explicitly how much sweat goes into whatever he wants to buy. Amy and I also want him to experience physical, maybe even uncomfortable, low-paying work so that he might find the motivation in college to pursue a career that will allow him to live and raise a family comfortably. And yet … I want him to enjoy his childhood as much as I enjoyed mine. I’m also reluctant to take time away from his schoolwork, as well as travel soccer, which eats up an awful lot of his weekends. He’s awfully good and enjoys it immensely. Perhaps most important: I want him to have the freedom to travel the world with me in my new job, since I’m convinced exposure to other cultures and other values and beliefs is the best education a child can get. Having to regularly seek time off from a job wouldn’t go over well with an employer. Item No. 2: An e-mail message from a friend, lamenting the fact that she cannot find a teenager to babysit for her 7-year-old son during the coming school year because: … the kids don’t think it’s worth giving up their Saturday nights for what they think is an insignificant amount of money (it’s not insignificant to me!) and their parents don’t push them to work because they don’t want to overstress them with something else on their schedule. When I was 15, I babysat every Saturday night, then scooped ice-cream all summer and walked neighbors’ dogs and used that money for movies and clothes shopping and, eventually, gas for the car when I was allowed to borrow it. When my son is old enough you can be sure he will do the same. But it sure looks like I’m the exception when it comes to parents who expect their kids to contribute. Isn’t there supposed to be a recession going on? Item No. 3: An article in this month’s issue of Academe, the magazine of the American Association of University Professors, about the downsides of holding a job while attending college. More college students are working than ever before — 45 percent of full-time students now work, compared with 32 percent in 1970. And they are working longer hours. Twenty-one percent work 20 to 34 hours a week, compared with 10 percent in 1970; and 8 percent of full-time students also hold a 35-hour-plus-per-week job, double the percentage as recently as 1990. Studies have consistently shown that students who work part-time while attending classes full-time have better grades and a lower drop out rate. But those studies find that the ideal number of work hours for students is 10 to 15 hours a week. In the Academe article, Laura W. Perna, a professor of higher education at the University of Pennsylvania, argues that these longer hours are hurting students. She writes: …trying to meet the multiple and sometimes conflicting simultaneous demands of the roles of student, employee … and so on often creates high levels of stress and anxiety, making it less likely that students will complete their degrees. Should your preteen be working at all? Should your teenager be working more? Should your college student be working less? What's Next Loading...

WARNING: This post contains completely biased opinion from a Mac user.  You may experience entertainment and a desire to purchase Apple products. If symptoms persist for more than 30 days, save your money and call your local Apple dealer. Nick Elam, sent me a controversial question that inspired this post: What kind of computer do you suggest for graphic design? Mac? PC? My laptop is too slow to handle my graphic design work lately so I’m looking for a new computer. Lots of people say “go with a Mac”, but I could build a PC with a faster processor and better video card for a lot less. What do you think? I’ll answer Nick’s question with pure opinion. I don’t feel the need to regurgitate a balanced Mac/PC debate. That’s been done, and that’s what links are for: A well thought out argument for Macs Balanced comments for both Macs and PCs Quick summary: I use Macs. As a graphic designer, the tools you use daily will influence your work on some level. Apple is able to “design” the entire user experience of their products since they build the hardware and software themselves. If your budget is an issue, find a refurbished or used Mac. They hold their value extremely well. I bought a 2006 iMac 24″ as a family computer in 2009. After we replaced the video card in 2010, it functions perfectly, even with the latest Mac OSX installed. It’s definitely not as swift as my 2011 Macbook Pro, but it get’s the job done. Let me start by saying buy a Mac My current laptop 2011-2013 And let me follow that up by saying buy a Mac now. I don’t care if you can mine silicon, weld transistors, and engineer the motherboard yourself. Using a Mac is better than using a Windows PC for graphic design, like using a pencil is better than a rock and chisel for drawing portraits. I’ll explain. Space defines action I believe your environment influences your work. As a designer it makes sense to use things that are well designed. Interacting with a well designed product actually teaches you how to design better. User experience trumps hardware specs Now that Intel Macs can run both Windows and Mac OSX there is no need for other hardware. If you are only interested in comparing hertz and bytes, then there isn’t much difference between a Mac and a Windows PC. However, by only comparing hardware specs you’re missing the bigger picture. As a graphic designer your computer is your business partner. You will spend hours everyday interacting with this machine. Designing your latest masterpiece, communicating with clients, sending out invoices, getting lost in a Twitter/Facebook hole; all of this happens on this one device. That’s why I believe the software on your box is a little more important than the metallic bits inside. This is where Macs move way ahead of PCs. The Mac operating system is an intuitive streamlined environment. It simplifies basic interactions, and doesn’t get in the way productivity. This efficiency will pay big dividends in the daily grind of being a graphic designer. Modern Macs can do it all I use a Mac for all computing purposes, except for the occasional website debugging that I have to do for Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer isn’t made for Macs anymore. This means I must traverse into the nether regions of darkness to find a cheeto-encrusted Windows-based PC to test my website. Even testing Internet Explorer bugs. I simply open Parallels and can swipe between Mac & Windows easily. The necks of PC fanatics are thick with veins by now. I haven’t given a lot of statistics, references and bar charts to prove my theories. But as I said before, I’m simply voicing the opinion that’s been formed in me after years of working with both Macs and Windows-based computers. I choose mac. What do you use? UPDATE! Windows 8 is a game changer and definitely put the Microsoft Windows' UI in a better place. Definitely check it out, use it, learn from it. But as of 2013, I'm still leaning Mac. After a few iterations on some of Microsoft's new concepts in Windows 8, I may be singing a different tune.

I am curious as to how you drew that conclusion. LikeLike Reply Paris Vega says: October 26, 2011 at 4:34 pm I used Windows for several years and the first time I saw a Mac I thought it was stupid (because it was different). After working on a Mac in a college art class, I bought an Apple iBook in 2005 and have used them since. Why? 1) At the time, everything I wanted to do on my Mac felt like it was easier and faster than when I tried to get things done on a Windows PC. Connecting a printer, installing software, changing settings, and anything else I need to do seemed to be easier. Wether or not it actually was didn't matter. It felt better using the Mac. At the time Windows felt clunky and bloated in comparison. 2) Like I mentioned in the post I believe a designer can improve their work by being exposed to good design in the form of products, software or even experiences. Apple branded themselves as a higher quality end-to-end user experience. That's what I wanted. Many people don't like their closed system, but that level of control has allowed them to create a consistent experience throughout their product line. Call it branding, marketing, hype or whatever; but as the saying goes, "A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down."

It also allows you tailor programs your own specifications (if your into that sort of thing) as it is all open source.

While I love the software and the operating system of OSX, I'm highly considering making the switch back to PC for the following reasons: I've had numerous problems with my Imac in regards to hardware (cd/dvd drive broke after just a couple of uses, hard drive failure after 3 years, graphics card issues causing screen glitches and inability to play video, left side of my computer screen is brighter than the right). Yes, I purchased the Apple care plan…but that doesn't mean I want to be taking my system in for repairs every six months…and being without my only computer for 1-2 weeks while they repair the faulty "made in china" hardware that they like to charge oh so much for, is just not worth the extra price tag. What really irritates me is that Apple refuses to acknowledge many of the very common problems associated with some of their computers, but instead calls them isolated incidents. Simply replacing my hard drive (after apple care ran out), was a very stressful operation because Apple makes it very difficult to do so. I wasn't going to spend $700 for a mac specialist to do this for me. To replace the very problematic graphics card, it would cost me between $600-$800! At least with a pc, I can easily fix a faulty component, and cheaply. I also don't like how my Imac isn't upgradable. 3 gigs of ram max, and they charge an arm and a leg for it if you want to purchase ram directly from apple. So for me I'm torn between the lovely operating system/software, and streamlined interface of a mac…and the lower cost, upgradability, and easy repair of a pc. Suffice to say…I don't think it's worth the extra money for an Apple..and I'm a graphic designer.

In the end it's not about a PC vs Mac fight, it's a about user choice. I don't use Macs, never want tol (especially with Win8 coming out this fall), and that's my choice. I love it. Completely respect your choice, don't knock down my choice just because. And by the way… Linux is amazing. That's the reason why I bought a Mac in 1999. Thinking it was going to be the Linux lift off that every Linux enthusiastist thought it would be. It wasn't and still isn't. Linux is like Windows and Mac mixed together.

Lock Every Door by Riley Sager 384 pages ISBN: 9781524745141 Publication date: July 2nd, 2019 by Dutton Books Genre: Thriller Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon | B&N | Goodreads Synopsis: Jules no longer has a job or a boyfriend. Her life consists of feeling like a burden while she stays on her friends’ couch. She finds an ad for an apartment sitter, and she goes for it. When she gets to the apartment it wasn’t what she expected. It was the Bartholomew, a very Gothic but high-class building that most people know about. She meets up with a woman who shows her around, and just when Jules thinks it’s a done deal, there are rules. Rules that don’t seem practical, but Jules takes the job anyway. Soon she finds out that this place isn’t what it seems. It has history that dates back a long time, and it’s not pretty. Review: Characters | Surprisingly, Jules is my favorite character in this story. I don’t tend to like the main character of a book. She is quick on her feet, she is strong physically and emotionally, and she has a heart of gold. Her family’s past is very sad and depressing, but she doesn’t really learn that until later in the story. All I wanted to do was give her a hug. She was a well thought out character that I wanted to be friends with. The events and the people she dealt with in this novel are crazy. You can’t trust anyone, but you’re not sure why. You are following Jules on her terrifying journey in the Bartholomew. Ingrid is another favorite of mine. I will admit that she was sketchy to me at first. I had an odd feeling that she was in on everything. It’s just because you don’t get to know her very well in the beginning, but she ends up being very helpful. She is also quick on her feet and strong. She goes through hell, but she makes it to the other side with Jules. I hated Nick from the beginning. Don’t even get me started with him. He gave me bad vibes from the start. I’m not going to say anything else about him. Story | I will admit that the story isn’t perfect. I did give it five stars, but it did drag a tiny bit in the middle. Nothing that made me want to stop reading. I couldn’t put it down. The story will get to you. You will get upset because you can’t figure out what the hell is going on. I did that in all three of his novels, but this one was intense for me. It gave you just enough information so that you couldn’t piece anything together. You were basically Jules the entire time. You learned information when she did. I loved learning the history of the Bartholomew. It’s so interesting and I wish it were real. It has such a dark past, and it was used for things that it should not have been used for. It blew my mind when I figured out why this building was notorious. I never even thought the twist at the end could be a twist. It never crossed my mind once. It is so good! One of the best story lines for a thriller. I’ve never read anything like it. I’m very impressed. Writing | It is a very similar style to the rest of his novels. It flops back and forth between present day and days prior. The present-day bits made me feel so uneasy. I hate anything horror or thriller that takes place in a hospital. You know it’s not going to pan out. I think his writing style worked the best for this novel. It gave it more of an ominous vibe. This is my favorite book from him. Sager developed the story well. The characters were some of the best, and odd characters I have ever read about. I loved everything about it. Overall | Please, please, please go read this when it comes out. I want this book to become very well known. If you have never read Sager before you should probably read Final Girls first, and then jump to this one. If you have read this and loved it, you should pre-order it! Support the authors that you love. If you enjoyed this, then give it a like and follow my blog. Be respectful and happy reading!

According to Austin Kleon, “All creative work builds on what came before”

THEN: On June 8, 1939 a photographer from the city’s public works department looked east over the work-in-progress on the 45th Street viaduct and the nurtured wet lands of Union Bay to Laurelhurst. What since the mid 1950s has been the University Village was then still acreage given for the most part to nurseries. (Municipal Archive.) NOW: Jean visited the viaduct a few days before the “tools” of its reconstruction were removed for an opening to traffic. (Jean Sherrard) When the bright voters of Seattle agreed to the $365 million “Bridging The Gap” levy in 2006 some of them would have known that the nearly 500 foot long west approach of the 45th Street Viaduct, which also marked the north border of the University of Washington Campus, was a gap in dire straits. It was made of wood. Twenty thousand vehicles gave it and the rest of this steep link between the University District and the neighborhoods to the east a daily pounding. Construction on the viaduct began in 1938 and it opened Sept 28, of the following year. In his “now” repeat Jean Sherrard chose a prospect several yards west of the historic photographer’s position in order to show the work-in-progress a few days before the viaduct was reopened on Sept. 10 last. For this the city hosted a street party on the viaduct. As every paper and street department spokesperson made sure to make note, the opening was in time for the Huskies game against Syracuse, which the Huskies won handily, no doubt in celebration of the department’s finishing on time. While the University District merchants of 1939 were happy with their new bridge to neighbors in the east, they were yet anxious that another bridge then still under construction, the Mercer Island floating bridge, would divert from their University Way, AKA “The Ave,” much of the traffic and business that came to it around the north end of Lake Washington. The greater surprises to U. District culture came in 1950 and 1956 when, respectively the shopping malls at Northgate and University Village opened. Because of the latter the 45th St. Viaduct began siphoning perhaps more business off “the Ave” than to it. Village parking was so easy and at least seemed free. The location of 45th Street – and so also both its viaduct and campus border – is an accident of the Willamette Meridian: the marked stone near Portland from which Federal surveyors began charting Washington and Oregon in 1851. When with their solar compasses and Gunter chains the surveyors at last reached Seattle and its hinterlands in the mid-1850s, the future 45th Street became a major section line. And as topographical fate would have it, 45th also marked how far north Lake Washington’s Union Bay reached before it was lowered 9 feet in 1916 for the ship canal. Once securely high and dry, 45th Street could be developed as an arterial for the three-plus miles from Stone Way to Laurelhurst. The viaduct completed that. WEB EXTRAS It was an early September evening, just a few days before the viaduct re-opened, that I paid the work site a visit. Here are a few more shots using a longer lens: Sand Point Way Calvary Cemetery - dedicated in 1889 - floats above U Village Finishing touches Anything to add, Paul? As the late hours allow – I’ll restrain myself to a few additions. First we are all invited to a behind-the-scenes tour of the Seattle Municipal Archives and a workshop on basic research tools for using the Archives. Both events are on Tuesday October 26 in celebration of Archives Month. There will be two tours, at 11 and 3; the workshop is at 1:30. Please RSVP to [email protected] if you are interested! We will note that the principal historical photos shown above and below were obtained through the Municipal Archive. This visit is also a fine chance to see – if you have not as yet – the inside of the relatively new City Hall. NEXT some more from the MUNICIPAL ARCHIVES on 45th Street Viaduct history interspersed with the city’s own history of the viaduct’s several public works between 1939 and now. It is a helpful habit for Municipal photographers to date their negatives. Here's a view looking east from the original trestle extending from the University District into the farmland that would in time become the University Village. A HISTORY OF 45TH STREET VIADUCT CONSTRUCTION Seattle’s topography has always been a challenge to transportation, especially along west to east routes. A concerted effort in the 1930s to ease automobile traffic led to a series of bridge projects including construction of the NE 45th St Viaduct that would provide a direct route from Sand Point Way and Laurelhurst to Highway 99. At that time, the land at the base was mostly farmland. The project was approved in 1935 by Ordinance 65629 with major community support from the University Commercial Club. Construction did not begin until 1938. (The street designation was E 45th Street until 1961 when the directional designation was changed to NE.) The viaduct was funded with a combination of federal Public Works Administration (PWA) dollars ($103,550), state gasoline tax revenue ($200,000), and a small appropriation in 1939 from the City Street Fund ($8,000). Other PWA-funded projects in 1938 included the Montlake Boulevard pedestrian overcrossing, 24th Avenue Southwest paving, East Madison Street repaving, and the Ballard Bridge. The project was completed in September 1939 with great fanfare. A celebration luncheon was held at the Edmond Meany Hotel on September 28, followed by a parade that included the Husky Marching Band. The procession made its way from the Meany to the dedication ceremonies where Mayor Langlie cut the ribbon in front of several thousand spectators. In 1955, funds were approved to widen the viaduct from two to three lanes; construction took place in 1956-1957. The construction was estimated to cost $192,000 and the funds were approved as part of a $10 million traffic improvement bond issue approved by Seattle voters in 1954. Additional funds for this project were approved in 1956, increasing the appropriation from $218,000 to $248,000. A 1956 scale of wages shows that carpenters earned $2.80 per hour in that year. The additional funds in 1956 were for a bus stop and for approaches to University Village. During the construction, traffic was limited to one lane eastbound. Westbound traffic was asked to detour to Blakely Avenue and Ravenna Place. Once the construction was finished, two lanes were designated for westbound traffic and one for eastbound. By the mid-1950s, the farmland was gone, but a Carnation plant and Shell station could be seen on NE 45th. The protected Seafair Queen - or princess - awaits the moment of ribbon cutting. Does any reader know this queen - or princess? The ribbon has been severed. Does anyone know the names of these Queen's helpers - or princess? During a 1972 Engineering Department survey of bridge needs, it became evident that the wooden trestles on the east end of the viaduct were compromised by a 1966 fire and needed to be replaced. After two public hearings, it was determined that there would be no big changes to the viaduct. Work began in January 1976. Federal funds were used to help fund the project, and additional funds were approved in 1976 for rail replacement. In 1976, carpenters earned $8.90 per hour. For various reasons, mostly related to the pilings used and the noise of the pile-driving machine, the work took longer than expected. Neighborhood groups and businesses, as well as the University of Washington, made their concerns about the delay known to the City. The viaduct was closed from January to October 17th, 1976. In 1983, City funds were approved for deck rehabilitation on the viaduct. Adverse weather and an initial unavailability of specialized equipment needed for the project required the completion date to be postponed until the spring of 1984. A temporary asphalt overlay was installed to enable the viaduct to be used during the time construction was stopped and restarted. After a fire in January 1996, the viaduct was briefly closed so an inspection could be made of the supports on the west end. In 2010, the viaduct was closed again for several months for a major project to replace the west approach. Portions of the approach dated back to 1938 and needed to be replaced for safety reasons. The project was budgeted at $30 million and was expected to last about six months. An aerial from June 1939 showing work in progress on the viaduct - running here across the top. World War Two aerial looking southwest to the University of Washington across Union Bay. Part of the new viaduct enters (and leaves) the scene on the right. Well-ordered and temporary wartime housing is the photo's centerpiece. 45th Street is blocked off just east of University Way with a stage meant to resemble a war ship for this WW2 Bond Rally. Note that the nifty band is - at least it seems to be - a segregated ensemble of Afro-Americans. And the comely bond-pushers (or sales persons) are a contrast. World War 2 eventually wrought a great break in military segregation. Meanwhile on this day there will be no direct route on 45th - from Brooklyn, for instance - east to the relatively new viaduct. "Ave" traffic was sufficiently congested by this post-war summer of 1946 to spur a district-wide survey of parking and delays. The view looks south on University Way from a second floor window in the University Book Store. RAVENNA (Click to Enlarge) Looking north-northeast over the Seattle Lake Shore and Eastern Railroad tracts to the town of Ravenna, ca. 1895. The Burke Gilman recreation trail now follows this curve. Soon after the Burke-Gilman Trail leaves the University of Washington campus it passes north below the ’45th Street viaduct, it begins a gentle but steady curving to the east between the Ravenna neighborhood on the north and University Village on the south. Although this trail for cyclists and joggers can be vaguely seen in the center of the contemporary photograph (It is not so contemporary, for it dates from 1982), its curving original ‘line of use” is very evident in the historical panorama. Both views look northeast from Ravenna Avenue near Northeast 50th Street. The Seattle Lake Shore & Easterb Railroad (SLSER) was begun in 1885 by Judge Thomas Burke and entrepreneur Daniel Gilman (hence the trail) and a few eastern capitalists (hence the rails). It was intended to go north around Lake Washington and east over Snoqualmie Pass to Spokane and a probable hook-up with the transcontinental railroads that paused there or promised to. By 1887 it got as far as Union Bay. One of the SLSER’s most pleased passengers was the Rev. William W. Beck, who besides his spiritual offerings, advertised himself as a “wholesale dealer in gold, silver, iron, coal, timber, and granites.” But it was with other of his enterprising interests, “parks and townsites,” that the energetic Presbyterian pastor was thinking in 1887 when he stepped off at the railroad’s Union Bay Station, the white structure just right of center. William Beck bought 300 acres. He would clear much of it to stumps for his townsite, but sixty lush acres he would keep and protect as a park. Both were named Ravenna. Beck’s lightly settled Ravenna town runs through the center of the old panorama. The southeastern end of his park is evident on the far left. The photograph was taken sometime in the mid 1890s. The park still had a virgin forest of giant cedars and firs, and would remain so until 1911 when Beck sold it to the city. By Thanksgiving 1887 the railroad reached Bothell, 20 miles out. All along the line the road’s construction brought with it logging camps, mills, mines and towns. It fed mill workers and their families in the new towns of Ballard, Ross, Fremont, Edgemont, Latona, Brooklyn (now the University District) and a milltown on Union Bay named Yesler after the Seattle pioneer. It is now-part of Laurelhurst. In 1888 Gilman’s railroad reached the coal miles of Gilman (now Issaquah), and on July 4, 1889, the first of many packed and popular excursion trains left the Seattle waterfront for Snoqualmie Falls. Preacher Beck had the right stuff: start a town by the railroad only a short ride from the city’s center, promote an industry like the flour mill on the right of our panorama, preserve a park for communing with nature and start a finishing school for Girls. The Seattle Female College is the churchy structure upper center in the panorama. Seattle Female College in an 1890s snow. Photo by Conn. Courtesy University of Washington Libraries, Special Collections. But the school closed in 1895, a lingering effect of the 1893 economic crash, the arrival that year of the University of Washington at its new campus nearby and the failure of Beck’s township to develop anything like Ballard, Fremont or Latona. The Park, however, did well. On April 1, 1902, .Leon Burley, 10, and his family left their farm near Fullerton, Nebraska, and headed west in a wagon. They reached Ravenna in the fall and rented the then vacant Female College for a temporary winter home. Now (in 1982 still) this Ravenna panorama is filled with loving memories for Leon Burley. He played in the abandoned flour mill, fished for suckers and trout in Ravenna Creek, which transects this view, delivered supplies by wheelbarrow to Roper’s Grocery on 24th Street, the storefront just left of the tree trunk, and with the Beck boys explored their parent’s park. Burley also remembers attending, in 1912 or 13, a youth Christian Endeavor meeting at the old Female College and hearing his future fiancee, Marie Phillips and her friend Fay Bayley, sing in duet “Saved by Grace.” The meeting was interrupted by fire, and that night Beck’s old school burned down. All were saved by getting out of there. Marie Phillips lived in the home which can be faintly seen halfway between the college and the left border of the photograph. It is still there, and is the home of Marie’s sister, Constance Palmerlee, who is writing a history of the Ravenna neighborhood. (Or was in 1982) Actually, those trees, that old house and much else in the contemporary view of the Ravenna neighborhood might have been filled with the R.H. Thomson Expressway had not Constance Palmerlee and many other activists in the Ravenna Community Association victoriously fight and beat the freeway. Ravenna Park ca. 1911. Courtesy Jim Westall Ravenna Park falls, ca. 1910 RAVENNA PARK (First appeared in Pacific Oct 9, 1988) In 1888, the Rev. William Beck and his wife bought a wooded ravine just north of town. A creek flowed through it from Green Lake to Lake Washington. Beck fashioned the area into a retreat where the busy citizens of boomtown Seattle could escape for some communion with nature. Through its first 20 years, thousands paid a quarter to mingle “among the giant firs and beside the laughing brook.” Some of Beck’s park artifice is evident here, for instance, the ground cover has been moderately cleared. Beck also added benches, a bandstand and fountains. The man leaning against the red alder is surrounded by western hemlock, vine maple, bitter cherry, lady fern, Indian plum, Douglas fir -parts of the ravine’s wild ecology. Whatever trampling those early hordes might have given the ravine, it did not compare to the changes that came after the city bought Ravenna Park from Beck in 1910. The next year the city diverted the warm phosphorus water of Green Lake from the ravine into the North Trunk Sewer line. This left a smaller and cooler creek fed by Ravenna Park’s many small springs. Now, 77 years later (in 1988), the ravine is more passive than when the ‘Becks charged admission. The Park Department’s economizing neglect has been benign. Nature and the ravine’s volunteer neighbors have conspired to make Ravenna Park an almost wild retreat. How long it will remain so is uncertain. One of Metro’s alternative plans for separating the North End’s storm drainage from its sewers proposes burying a pipe the length of the Ravenna ravine. It would drain the runoff from the North End’s streets and parking lots into Union Bay. At the same time, the city’s parks department, in trying to clear the waters of Green Lake, wants to bury a second pipe in the ravine that would allow the exchange of water between Green Lake and Lake Washington. The proposal to lay the pipes is not popular with those who like the park the way it is: a wild retreat for urban hikes, botany classes, composers and courtiers. Many of these park users have formed the Save Ravenna Park committee. (A good reporter would follow all this up 22 years later. I haven’t. Perhaps a reader can bring this history up to date.) A Ravenna Park promotional flier from 1909. Perhaps the names that match these numbers are on the flip side of the original print - somewhere. An early park scene, which if memory serves we have posted on the blog once before. The Seattle Mail and Herald was a popular weekly tabloid hereabouts in the early 20th Century. A path in the park. A look north over the campus, 1937. There is as yet no 45th Street Viaduct climbing to the District from the nursery gardens, upper-right, at the north of Union Bay. Looking northwest across the nearly new University Village. A touch or bit of the Blakeley Psychiatric Clinic appears at the top-middle. My first job in Seattle was tending its gardens in 1965. A large copy of this scene hangs in the clinic's lunch room - or at least did. I gave it to my brother who for decades up until his death three years ago did analysis in his office (with its big plate glass window looking out at its own little garden - like all the rest) at Blakeley. So my gardening was an inside job. Or inside and outside. A REMINDER: RSVP the Archive and tell them you and yours are coming. Share this: Twitter Facebook Like this: Like Loading...

Reply paul says: October 25, 2010 at 11:16 am Thank you Jana for tying the sting of queens. Perhaps the knot will hold. In browsing the queens list you linked I found only one queen that I have known. That is the commanding Arlene Wade, or Arlene Hinderlie. I met Arelene in the 1990s while she was the force behind gaining the log cabin connected with Alki Point’s Homestead Restaurant as a new home for the West Seattle Historical Society. Arlene’s smarts, energy, and sincerity were dominating and the cabin is now quite a nifty museum for West Seattle history – thanks in great measure to the 1963 Seafair Queen. (addendum: Upon reflection I knew one other Queen. During the Helix years, 1967 to 1970, a then recent Seafair queen would visit the newspaper’s office and hang around. I no longer remember her year or name. I do remember that she had broad shoulders and made enthused conversation.) Loading...

I googled her name and found that she died in 2002 at the age of 102 (born in May 29th 1900). She lived at 5770 26th Ave NE, Seattle, WA, which fits with the address of the Seattle Female College and both were just blocks from where I grew up. She apparently also lived on Queen Anne, in West Seattle and lastly, Everett. She died on July 2, 2002 and is buried at Acacia Memorial Park in Lake Forest Park, which kind of surprised me. I thought she would be at Calgary. Apparently her house and property was turned over to the bank with a quit claim deed starting in 1996 and it looks like she lost the house by 1997. That’s pretty sad. Although it’s possible the people who took ownership of the property were relatives, with the final sale in 2006. I hope so. Found this article about a Constance Palmerlee marrying at 92 and lists her brother as Ronald Phillips, so I’m assuming it’s the same Constance and same family. Interesting that she and her new husband were graduates of Lincoln High School. My parents were too. http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19920531&slug=1494805 Anyway, was hoping to find some information of the book you mentioned that she might have written but was unable to find any.

He was an incredible guy- Husky (football) Hall of Fame great, UW Athletic Director, first Prime Minister of Seafair, Seattle City Councilman, the list goes on. Most importantly a wonderful grandfather.

Pawn shop loans have become far more popular in the sluggish economy. That’s because bank loans require you've employment and in many cases, should you have had employment, you wouldn’t require a loan. You may have another source of income, such as joblessness or the repayment of a debt owed to you personally, but banks don’t consider those when you obtain a loan. Going through financial institutions and even payday loans often require you to fill out scores of paperwork and wait for response from the loan company. If you have poor credit, the wait may result in the business declining your loan. In which wastes valuable time if you want funds immediately. Then you definitely have to go to another loan company, only to expect the identical results.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) — North Carolina coach Larry Fedora hopes during their open week that the Tar Heels have corrected some of the problems that plagued them through a rough opening month. How well they used that time could determine how things go Saturday night against Virginia Tech and beyond. “They’re making each day important,” UNC coach Larry Fedora said Monday. “And they know if it’s going to be important on Saturday night, it’s got to be important on Sunday or Monday or whatever day it is. I’m happy with the way they’ve responded.” The Tar Heels (1-3, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) are coming off a 47-10 loss at Miami, a game in which the Hurricanes scored three defensive touchdowns and forced six turnovers. It was an ugly extension of offensive struggles that had plagued the Tar Heels in season-opening losses at California and East Carolina. UNC ranks among the worst Bowl Subdivision teams in turnover margin (minus-8), and there’s no easy solution since both quarterbacks have had trouble. Nathan Elliott, who started the first four games, threw four interceptions at Cal and also had a fumble returned for a touchdown at Miami. And No. 2 quarterback Chazz Surratt threw three interceptions — two returned for touchdowns — against the Hurricanes in his first game back after a suspension for selling team-issued shoes. Asked if Surratt’s suspension had put him behind in being ready to play, Fedora said: “Well, I hope not. I hope it hasn’t. “Whether you’re getting the rep or you’re watching the rep, we expect you to be getting a mental rep,” Fedora said. “And you have to always. “It’s just like if you’re the No. 2 quarterback, you have to prepare yourself to be the starter. You’re an ankle (injury) away from being out on the field. I think when that happens, you find out a lot of times if a guy has prepared himself. And I’m not saying that Chazz hasn’t, I’m saying that he didn’t handle the situation that night very well and just didn’t process things very well.” Unsurprisingly, Fedora didn’t publicly commit to a starting quarterback to face the Hokies (3-2, 2-0). There has been one positive example for the Tar Heels of what can happen when they execute well. In their lone win against Pittsburgh, Elliott overcame accuracy struggles to throw for a career-high 313 yards while Antonio Williams became the team’s only 100-yard rusher this season. UNC had just one turnover in that game, a second-quarter fumble by top receiver Anthony Ratliff-Williams. Virginia Tech coach Justin Fuente said Monday there’s “a little bit of more urgency for us” in preparing for the game knowing the Tar Heels have had an open week to get ready. “When they take care of the football,” Fuente said, “they’re pretty prolific offensively.” Share this: Twitter More Print Obituary for Douglas Wayne Spence Christiansburg officials work for new Amtrak service No Thoughts on Tar Heels hope work during open week corrects early problems Leave A Comment Cancel Reply Type your comments here Comment Cannot Be Empty.

The Perdekamp Emotional Method PEM – developed and designed by German director and playwright Stephan Perdekamp – is an innovative acting method based on a biological process. PEM provides performers with a direct, effortless and guidable access to authentic emotions on a purely physical basis, without recourse to personal experiences or emotional memory. ...organic and fast ... and works with an unheard-of simplicity ... Its organic and fast approach grants security, flexibilty and reliability in the professional careers of actors, singers, dancers and other performers and works with an unheard-of simplicity and effectiveness in creating emotional depth and expressiveness. PEM is also a tool to connect young actors to emotions beyond their personal experience to provide them with a wider range of emotional expression. PEM is a way to explore acting beyond the personal, historical and cultural scope of our modern society. It enables an understanding and awareness of the human condition that is bigger than our personal experience, making actors more versatile and intense at the same time. PEM is a fundamental acting tool that ensures the skillful, exact and instant use of authentic emotions. It is also a 'comprehensive acting method’ where all disciplines of acting training (body work, breathing, voice, speech, character work, emotional work, scene work, improvisation, acrobatics, dance, singing, stunt) are based on the same technical principles. Get out of your head and into your body. ­ PEM is a revolutionary technique that no actor can afford to be without. Check out Germany’s best secret. Karen Lanson­, Actress & Writer, London How Does PEM Work? With PEM I have learnt how to quickly and easily access an emotion without having to go through a lot of scenario preparation. Marina Waters, Actress, London ... effortless and guidable access to authentic emotions on a purely physical basis, without recourse to personal experiences or emotional memory ... PEM is based on bio-electrical trigger centers in the nervous system. PEM addresses those - previously unconscious - trigger centers in the nervous system. PEM teaches - through a series of awareness exercises - to address those trigger centers, enabling performers to access their true emotional system directly and consciously. Additionally, PEM offers a wide range of exercises to clear up unconscious emotional blockages in order to give the actor access to the basic biological function of emotions and an artistic control over the internal emotional processes. How Was PEM developed? Creator of PEM Stephan Perdekamp Stephan Perdekamp developed PEM in a 15-year period of research. Theatrical experiments helped define the applicability and effectiveness of the method in the Performing Arts. The process was accompanied and its technical and educational aspect repeatedly reviewed by psychologists and therapists to create a method that is safe, user-friendly and free from exploiting the artistic soul. I think PEM is going to be the new wave for acting. It is holistic, organic and you understand how to use your body to show your emotions Stuart Burgh, Actor, New York & Philadelphia Can I Be Sure That PEM Works For Me? Anyone would be able to use PEM even if they were fond of another method because it is so concrete and you can rely on it. Kristen Vaphides, Actress, New York PEM is an approach to an innate biological system which is the basis of all human communication and acting. PEM has been tried by thousands of people from 6 continents in over 55 countries and has proven to be complementary to all other acting methods. Certified PEM instructors guarantee safe and effective learning. In 2013, the effects of PEM were scientifically supported in a study funded by the Federal Ministry of Economy, Family and Youth in Austria. The results were presented to members of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna who acknowledged the findings. How Can I Learn PEM In Germany, the PEM Center Hamburg was established in 2011 and features the PEM Theater an den Elbbruecken and a resident acting school to run a full time program.

Centuries ago, torture meant being fed to the lions or being burned at the stake. These days, torture means slipping into a pair of skinny jeans after a night of wild partying and careless binge eating. Nothing is more difficult than trying to fit into sexy outfits after cruel carbs have found their way around your midsection. Lucky for me though, I have managed to sneak my way out of that kind of torture after making the big switch to red rice. Red rice has a lot of health benefits. Here are the top reasons why you should start eating this grainy treat: It’s rich in fiber. Because red rice is unpolished, all the goodness of fiber remains intact. When you eat fiber-rich food, your stomach stays full for a longer time. As you eat more fiber, you find yourself having less hunger pangs. You get more by eating less. This is great if you want to lose weight. It’s loaded with antioxidants. These help protect cells from damage, thus inhibiting aging and other illnesses. It’s packed with minerals. Magnesium and calcium are the top minerals found in red rice. Magnesium helps reduce asthma and migraine attacks, and even tones our muscles. Calcium, of course, builds strong bones and prevents osteoporosis. It lowers cholesterol. Bran found in red rice is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, and does a good job at keeping cholesterol levels down. Blood sugar levels are likewise regulated. Since I started eating red rice, I haven’t looked back. Gone are the days when I’d wolf down 2 cups of white rice in one sitting. I have rekindled my romance with the weighing scale, and am now feeling- and looking- fit and healthy.

A patch logo for the air force. One of the IDF air force units also known as the “orange tail knights squadron”. Research Every unit in the military has it’s own logo and almost every military’s branch has its own uniform. The airforce has their own jumpsuit which they attach patches on it. That unit is comprised of young soldiers, so this project had do be cool & young. It contains hint of the unit’s characteristics, abilities and missions as well. And the one thing that is in common with all untis – the wings. All the air force logo’s have simple figures and colors. however, this renewed patch will have to be younger – meaning more gradients. The logo on the left below you can see the old actual unit logo, as for the picture on the right you can see the first patch logo. The design There are 4 main elements that had to be included in the design: The unit number – 107. The unit name – “orange tail knights squadron”. The logo colors – Yellow, Orange, Black & White. The contour – as the shape of superman’s logo. The old patch had a serif and more of an elegant font. The new patch has a san-serif bold font with a much bigger presence. The official logo has an orange animal but in the renewed patch the figure has been changed into a knight, using black & white colors with shades for it to be more realistic, and the orange tail is the same as the units name.

They not only spend a good amount of their time using them but also a considerable amount of time cleaning and maintaining them. However, for all kitchen novices and other common folks, making mistakes while handling kitchen knives is not uncommon. And, it’s nothing to be embarrassed about! It’s good to be aware of them and make timely amends. So, here are three of the most common mistakes every knife owner needs to stop making right away, especially if you’re concerned about the reduced lifespan of your kitchen knives. Not picking the right set of kitchen knives Considering the extensive range of options to choose from, it’s easy to get swayed away by something that you actually don’t need. So, lesson one is to not get carried away seeing the beautiful designs of the kitchen knives available in the market. Always focus on the purpose, material, and size. Sure, you would be willing to invest in a set of stainless steel kitchen knives because of their sharpness but make sure that you are able to bear with them. As it is, stainless steel kitchen knives are high-maintenance. Besides, opt for the right size. The right-sized kitchen knives are the ones that comfortably fit in your hand. They should neither be too big nor too small. Not shifting them right Are you shifting homes? Or got to transport your kitchen knives to your friend’s place for a BBQ dinner? Well, this is where you need to pay a little extra attention. Tossing them headlessly will not only lead to scratching of the blades but there are also chances that the tip might break. To prevent your kitchen knives from getting damaged, make sure to wrap them in a heavy kitchen towel while shifting. Besides, you can also invest in a kitchen roll that is specially designed for this purpose. Not maintaining the blades’ sharpness Agreed, everyone has a different way of treating their kitchen knives. And, there are certainly no rules to follow for this. But, there’s one thing that you need to keep in mind. Don’t let the knives’ blade get too dull before you plan to sharp it next or get it sharped. Dull blades are nothing but an invitation to unwanted injuries as you need to exert more pressure and force with such knives as compared to the ones with a sharp blade. So, make sure you spend time getting them sharpened as needed. P.S. Take up some easy tests if you’re not sure whether your knives’ blades need sharpening yet or not. Now that you’re aware of the most common kitchen knife mistakes to avoid, implement them right away in your everyday routine.

In short, the answer to this question is, yes, Persian cats are high maintenance. This issue doesn’t mean they have to be. There are ways that you can manage to groom your Persian, so they are less so. Why grooming, you ask? Because their thick, silky fur is the issue at the top of the list. However, Persians do suffer from other problems that can cause their owner more work if these happen to rear their heads. How do Persians compare to other cats? There are a few other cats that are high maintenance along with the Persian. Persians can have problems with their tear ducts. Your job, keep the area around their eyes clean. They can have breathing issues as well because of their cute, smushed faces. It seems cuteness comes with a price. These appear to be lesser issues when compared to more severe problems. These problems include polycystic kidney disease (PKD), progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), bladder stones, cystitis (bladder infections), and liver shunts. If you’ve gotten your Persian from a reputable breeder, they’ve done what they could to breed these issues out of their line of cats. If any of these become a concern to you, you should take your kitty to the vet. Other cats that are high maintenance. Himalayan Like the Persian breed, they need to be groomed daily and have some of the other health issues that Persians do. The reason being is that Himalayans are closely related to the Persian. Munchkin These cute little fluffs have been bred to have short, little legs. This can cause injury if they try to follow their cat nature and jump too far. This can lead to damage. Allowing your Munchkin to become obese is also a danger to their short legs. These cats don’t have few if any, congenital problems. Sphynx What could be wrong with a virtually hairless cat? They can have health issues that make them a little higher maintenance than some other breeds. They are prone to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a thickening of the heart muscle. They can also have what is called hereditary myopathy. This affects their muscles, which can lead to them not being able to swallow as well as other problems. This issue is rare, and breeders are working on breeding it out. Sphynxes are also prone to skin conditions and periodontal disease. You will have to brush their teeth. Manx These tailless cats can have spinal issues. This can cause problems going to the potty. Usually, if your Manx has a spinal issue, it will show by the time they reach six months old. You may notice difficulty walking or walk with a stiff or hopping gait. With no tail, this breed can have spinal defects. Your Manx may have trouble defecating or urinating if they have any spinal issues. Problems usually appear by six months of age. A Manx kitten likely has some spinal issues if they are displaying difficulty walking or walking with a stiff or hopping gait. Peterbald Have you ever heard of these cats? I haven’t until doing some research. These cats are similar in looks to an Oriental shorthair, but there are differences. The most significant difference is that these cats with peach fuzz for a coat are quite delicate. Rough treatment can hurt their skin. They can suffer from sunburn. These cats need a domain that is quiet and indoors. I don’t think I’d want a kitty that is so delicate, it would be like owning a piece of fine china. I’d be afraid of breaking it. Maine Coon These cats also need to be groomed regularly. Their coat isn’t as dense as a Persian’s, but it is long and prone to mats. My Maine Coon girl, Acacia, needs to be brushed about once a week and check their coat daily or every other day for tangles and mats. They do suffer from a heart disease called hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), hip dysplasia, and spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). How do you groom a Persian cat? The first step is to realize that having a Persian in your home will require you to groom them. Once you understand that, it will make this job more manageable. The other important thing is to set the perfect grooming schedule for you and your Persian. These sessions can be great bonding times for you and your Persian kitty. Your Persian has a beautiful, thick, silky coat, and you want it to stay that way. Daily grooming is a necessity. The Persian fur is so thick it needs regular brushing to keep it at its fluffiest best. When grooming your cat, you will want to be sure you do their eyes, nails, and ears. Before you start grooming, you’ll want to have these tools on hand. I won’t add detail here as there is a more in-depth post here on the blog. You should have a brush and maybe a comb, clippers for fur and nails, shampoo, coconut oil, cotton balls, ear cleaner, and styptic powder. The brush and perhaps a comb are pretty much self-explanatory. They are used for precisely the thing you use your brush for. The clippers for fur are a bit different than those for nails, of course. One is used to cut hair, and the other is used to trim your cat’s claws. The shampoo, you’ll want to bathe your Persian to be sure they stay clean and fluffy. Coconut oil will help loosen a mat if you can’t get it free. Styptic powder is used when you draw blood by clipping a claw to close or even if you’ve clipped what you thought was all fur and caught a bit of skin. This powder stops the bleeding. Clip your kitty’s nails first be sure to have your cotton balls and styptic powder ready just in case. You’ll want to brush your Persian before you bathe them. This will allow you to be sure all the tangles or mats if they have them are removed. Plus, it gives you a chance as much shed hair off them as well. Once or twice a month, after proper brushing, you should bathe your cat. Your Persian may have trouble with their tear ducts, which can lead to staining around the eyes. You can keep this cleaned up by using a stain removing solution. Wipe their eyes daily with this solution. Also, they can get wax build up on their ears so you should clean them with an ear cleaning solution. Use this solution on a cotton ball and clean the inside of their ear. This is a condensed version of the grooming steps you’ll want to take with your Persian. For more information, read the more in-depth guide by following the link above. Following a schedule and using the steps above, you will find that your relationship with your high maintenance Persian becomes more natural. You must set up a plan and stick to it. Some Persian may not like being groomed. In this case, break up your grooming routine into smaller sessions. Conclusion The biggest reason Persians seem so high maintenance is that they need to be groomed every other day if not daily to keep their fur in great shape. If you don’t groom them regularly, their hair can become matted, making getting their coat back into shape time consuming, hard work. So, you see, having a grooming schedule is best for you and your Persian. Persians do have some health issues and need grooming daily, but this shouldn’t keep you from bringing one home. They are loveable, balls of fluff. Besides, even humans have health and grooming issues that we must take care of, and we don’t keep that from having another human living with us. Hope this article was helpful to you. Remember to keep your Persian groomed on a schedule, and any issues you have or had will disappear or at least diminish. Let us know how we did on this subject? How do you cope with your Persian’s grooming needs?

I have recently concluded a review of all of my novels. It started because I asked my wife what she thought of my latest book, The Devil Within Us. She admitted that she had not read it yet. Obviously, she knew that this would be a disappointing revelation to me and claimed the good old ‘I have been too busy’ excuse for her defence. A couple of days later she suggested that instead of her trying to find the time to read the book why didn’t I read it to her? So I did! I have to admit that I first I found reading my own work out to someone else a bit strange. I had a tendency to read too fast to begin with. I put this down to the fact that I knew what was coming next and that my mind was already jumping ahead, faster than my mouth! My wife asked me to slow down and take my time, which proved very useful; I spotted a terrifying number of typographical errors!! I hate seeing errors of this nature in my work. I really do try to catch them all before the book goes to print, but, obviously, I am not as successful as I thought I was. However, always the optimist, I decided to put this revelation to good use. I started to review all of my manuscripts. First, I needed to do some organisation. I was not even sure where the most current manuscript for that book was?! This prompted me to get copies of all my current manuscripts together and put them into some kind of order. Once that was done, I started reading them. Reviewing a manuscript that runs to over 100,000 words is not something that can or should be rushed. I disciplined myself to read slowly and look for errors, whether they were spelling mistakes, grammar that could be improved, or just a bit of writing that could be reworked to produce something better. I realised that my way of writing had evolved since I started work on The War Wolf back in 2010. As I have a lot more experience as a writer now than I did 10 years ago I also decided to apply that acquired knowledge. This did not lead to me making any fundamental changes to any of the manuscripts. I did expand on some scenes and, in a couple of cases, reworked dialogue so as to present an argument better. I definitely corrected a lot of typographical errors, but I have a sneaking suspicion that I did not capture them all. Well, I have written nearly a million published words! Technically, my style of working was very simple. I took a copy of a current manuscript and saved it as ‘War Wolf V3 Universal Copy’ for example. I needed 3 different formats for each manuscript so working with a universal copy made sense. It meant that once I had completed the review itself, I could then format the universal copy to meet the needs of an ebook and a paperback. I should point out that Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) prefer a certain style of formatting and other publishers, like Smashwords, have a different requirement also. So, that is 2 ebook formats and 1 paperback format. To be honest, there is not that much difference between them, which is what makes using a universal copy logical. I work principally with the KDP format, which uses Word’s Table of Contents (TOC) for navigation in an ereader. Smashwords do not use TOC, they prefer bookmarks and hyperlinks to the various chapters. Paperbacks generally do not bother with a contents page anyway. When I am finished with the review of the universal copy, I save it as a ‘KDP’ copy and then insert the TOC. I then do the same for Smashwords, saving it as a ‘SMW’ copy and adding a contents list using bookmarks. Finally, I save a ‘PBK’ copy, for paperback, and remove the contents page altogether, but putting in the page format the is required for printing a hardcopy of the book. They all then get uploaded to the relevant website and, if I did not make a stupid mistake, get published as new and improved versions of my books. I know of some authors who never look back at their older work. Personally, I find it to be quite a valuable exercise. Yes, it takes time and not a little dedication, but I think that it is worth it. My books read better for it. I like the idea that someone who has not heard of me as an author might download one of my books and think that it is well written. If they do then I hope that they might tell at least one other person. That is how an author’s readership grows. My wife recently told my sister-in-law that I am her personal audio-book now!

Alexander the Coppersmith Strikes Again: A Rejoinder to James White (Part II) by Peter Lumpkins - peterlumpkins.com peterlumpkins.com reflections on religion & politics, history & theology, culture & lifestyle Home Archives About Subscribe Free Church Press « Attention: I just copied over the last post! --UPDATE-- | Main | I Know What I Want for Father's Day by Peter Lumpkins » 2010.06.07 Alexander the Coppersmith Strikes Again: A Rejoinder to James White (Part II) by Peter Lumpkins UPDATE: Rather than actually deal with anything written here or in Part I, James White would simply ignore the evidence which surely demonstrates he routinely deals unfairly and inadequately with his critics. Yet his emotionally-driven flaming continues to burn in his latest piece here. While the Muslim video has absolutely nothing to do with me or Tim Guthrie--in fact, I flagged the Muslim's IP months ago (the Muslim who apparently created the video) so he could not comment on SBC Tomorrow--James White nonetheless attempts to tie both Guthrie and me with the Muslim. He writes: "But once again, what an incredible example of "focus on irrelevancies, ignore the central point." The only thing more sad is this: such fallacious argumentation could very well be picked up by the likes of Guthrie and Lumpkins, since they, along with this Muslim, show no capacity for logical reasoning and fairness" (emphasis added). Sure, James, sure. On the other hand, I'm afraid it's going to be more difficult in the future for James White to simply say something is so makes it so. Demand for legitimate evidence for his emotionally-saturated charges and moral insults he routinely hurls at his critics, I predict, is going to increase. Either James White will abandon his cheap, offensive rhetoric, along with the "you, sir, are a liar" scorched earth strategy, or he'll continue to lose influence. It's already cost him his teaching post at Golden Gate. What else will he concede before he gets it? I cannot answer that question. ==================================================================================== In Part I, I dealt with James White’s unhealthy pattern of kicking literary sand in his opponent’s eyes during engagement (//link). Unintentional or not, those rapid-fire insults during an exchange is unprofessional, unscholarly, and poorly reflects upon one’s character. Understand: I am not referring... > to someone being “stubborn” or “hard-headed” or “backward” or “childish” or “goofy” or “ridiculous.” Instead I’m referring to remarks that cut at one’s honesty and truthfulness and sincerity and heart and genuineness. I encourage the reader to note that clear pattern in James White’s engagements (//link). With that out of the way, I do want to briefly respond to some meaningful criticisms White offered to the piece I posted here. James White’s critique is here. The first meaningful criticism White makes in his piece with my name attached is well into his post. White writes: Well, let's look at one claim made by the worst of the practitioners of the politics of personal destruction, Peter Lumpkins: And, the official word is, James White will not be offered any future contract as adjunct instructor to teach any subject for Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary including Islam. Interestingly, White skips almost to the very end of my piece to grab this quote, overlooking other significant factors leading up to the pull-quote concerning his teaching at Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary (GGBTS). I can, however, see why he would personally and quickly want to address this issue. After offering a moving summary of his years of teaching at GGBTS, White concedes he’d always known he had no promises of teaching there in the future. Fair enough. But then James White switches into unintelligible gibberish, insisting there exist “Arminians who detest me [White] for what I believe.” How this has anything to do with the quote from me I do not know. Nor do I know why White proceeded as he did: “And in this case, you have Peter Lumpkins, a politico without honesty or integrity, a man who stands convicted by the facts of utter disregard for honesty in his false attacks upon me in his outrageous video (refuted here)…” What the link had to do with the quote from me again I cannot tell (for the record, White most certainly did refute my interpretation of his words. What White did not link to was my extensive rejoinder to him, a rejoinder to which I know of no response //link). Furthermore, White interpreted the words above as “pushing for a man who cannot answer any questions to remain in his position of authority, while seeking to make sure the man who has unquestionable proof of his ministry in the area of apologetics will not be allowed to communicate that expertise to the students at GGBTS!” First, I have never “pushed for anyone” to “retain” any position. If White can produce the goods, I’ll publicly retract this statement. What I have consistently written is, a plea for innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt. Now, if that constitutes the charge to which White refers, I am guilty and will be so in the future as well. But that does not seem to fit White’s charge. Hence, this is mere blather. If White has evidence I’ve “pushed” for someone to “retain” a position, let him bring it forth. Second, based on my quotation, White charges that I am seeking to make sure he will not be allowed to communicate his expertise to the students at GGBTS. While I have expressed my reservations about White teaching in a CP funded seminary, to suggest I’m “pushing” it is absurd. My question is, pushing to whom? I have no relationship whatsoever to GGBTS. Nor do I have any influence at GGBTS to my knowledge. If I do, I hope someone will inform me how. I find it also a little amusing that White employs the term “expertise” when lamenting I allegedly am “pushing” for him to be denied a position at GGBTS. Coming from a man who vehemently insists he does not perceive himself an expert in Islam but only a student of Islam remains a suprise to many, I'm sure. Third, White then strangely says “There is a reason the man will never face me, never call the Dividing Line, etc. It is easy to twist the facts and act brave behind a keyboard, but far different when you have to actually speak to someone face to face (or at least voice to voice).” What this has to do with my quote again I do not understand. If I have twisted facts, demonstrate it. Without any example for people to examine, how does White expect to be persuasive? Particularly, what facts are twisted? Furthermore, how does James White know I “act brave behind a keyboard”? Has he a hidden camera monitoring me? It’s really sad to see an experienced apologist struggling to make a meaningful point. Indeed the same can be said about his next statement: “Lumpkins…takes bits and pieces out of videos, ignores the rest, and makes absurd arguments based upon a biased, prejudiced hearing of what is said.” Again, White makes charges but offers absolutely no example to demonstrate the accusation I am “prejudice” and “biased” and make “absurd arguments.” Again, we come up empty. Next, James White says I “draw a fantasy picture in which the Caners are not actually considered experts on Islam (which is why they are asked to speak on that topic so often, presented as such over and over again, etc.)…” Well, White confusedly left the quote above and the only thing to which I can figure he is referring concerns the quote I offered from the Caner’s book. However, he really botched it big time. I by no stretch wrote or implied the Caners “are not actually considered experts on Islam.” If there is a fantasy, James White just created it. My point was and remains, the Caners did not consider themselves experts on Islam, but the cultural mass bestowed the expert status upon them anyway. White just did not read my lines carefully. Consequently, he drew unwarranted implications from what I actually wrote. From my standpoint, this becomes embarrassing for an accomplished apologist like James White. While I surely take no comfort in revealing such an elementary flaw in White's argumentative patterns since he often represents Christianity to non-Christian audiences, the fact remains that if his non-Christian opponents look deeply into White's rebuttals to them, White very well may become extremely vulnerable. Why? Because James White tends to misread what is actually written and proceeds to draw conclusions without necessary warrant. Perhaps this weakness may explain, at least in part, why White prefers debate encounters with spoken word rather than written word (hence, his lament I presumably am a coward because I will not have a "face to face" with him via DL or other venue). I do not know this, obviously. I am only attempting to understand how an accomplished apologist like James White could so badly botch clear, unambiguous assertions his opponent makes. White also says I held him accountable for every word written by John Kennedy in a Christianity Today article. First, White’s accusation is obviously overkill and grossly inaccurate on its surface. I held him responsible for every word written? Come on. That’s the mistake of a freshman, not a veteran like White. Where’s his mind at the time he’s writing this? Second, once again, James White does not read carefully enough. Here’s what I wrote: First, to read Kennedy’s article and expect readers to come away with the impression that James White considers himself a “student” of Islam and not an “expert” in Islam is hardly credible. Kennedy unequivocally states James White teaches Islam at Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary. What is the average reader to assume? If Golden Gate seminary is a credible, graduate-level theological institution, and James White teaches Islam at a credible, graduate-level theological institution, then James White is most likely an “expert” in the subject he teaches at the graduate-level. For James White to conclude from my very precise statement I’m holding White responsible for every word Kennedy wrote is patently absurd. By the way, James White did not even attempt to offer a meaningful response to the above. He simple accused me of holding him responsible for every word Kennedy wrote. White goes on to conclude, “Any rational person knows reporters summarize and, often, not so accurately.” That’s an interesting admission for James White to make, especially in light of the many newspaper articles upon which he relied in assembling the “evidence” against the Caners. Nonetheless, White thinks it “laughable” that he would have anything to do with Kennedy’s choice of words concerning his teaching at GGBTS. In fact he categorically denies he influenced Kennedy. He writes: “Allow Christianity today? As if I was sent the article for approval or something? I pointed the reporter to my list of classes, he picked the one that seemed to him (I am guessing, I haven't asked him) the most relevant, which was the class on Islam I did teach for GGBTS in 2009, and ran with it.” Just for the record, I think White has his dates for the class on Islam he taught at GGBTS confused. He "guesses" Kennedy chose the class he did on Islam in 2009 to be the basis that White presently teaches Islam at GGBTS. However, according to both White's website and Golden Gate's site, White taught the class on Islam in 2008, not 2009 (see here and here respectively). I am willing to be corrected, but the only class White taught in 2009 I can find was a general studies apologetics class dealing with varied philosophical issues, one issue of which was Islam (//link). If this is correct, Kennedy had to go all the way back to a single, 2008 class White taught on Islam as the basis of his badly mistaken assertion that James White presently teaches Islam at GGBTS, an assertion categorically untrue. To make things even more confusing, White records on his site a slightly different account than what he describes in his former words above: “…Mr. Kennedy, the author of the CT article, called me. Seems some rabble-rousers out there contacted Christianity Today and told them I do not teach for Golden Gate. So he had to do "due diligence." I asked if he had called Golden Gate, and he hadn't (I invited him to do so, and gave him the proper people to contact, by name). So I read to him the following list: [List of classes taught at GGBTS]… But I was happy to provide the documentation” (//link) In light of this, are we to understand James White did not have any influence in getting the CT story accurate when the author of the story had questions about his teaching and directly questioned James White about his relationship with the seminary? Was it not relevant to the story that James White was not presently teaching at Golden Gate? Did James White make this clear to John Kennedy? Did Kennedy simply ignore White’s words that he was not presently teaching Islam at GGBTS but nonetheless proceeded to state unequivocally James White does, in fact, presently teach Islam at GGBTS? I do not know the answers to these questions. I do know, however, two things: a) these questions do not constitute “laughable” material; and b) James White completely danced a side-step around the actual issue I raised. He did not answer. Nothing. He ignored. Hence I raise the issue again: “In light of this, it is not unreasonable to query whether it was morally sober for White to allow Christianity Today to refer to him as currently teaching Islam at Golden Gate when, in reality, he was not; he is not; and, the official word is, he will not.” I think James White needs to clearly, forthrightly clarify. He had an opportunity to set the record straight after John Kennedy called him in response to being told James White did not teach at GGBTS. And, why he chose not to clarify for CT needs to be examined. With that, I am… Peter Peter Lumpkins, PhD Posted at 08:24 AM in Calvinism, ethics | Permalink Reblog (0) Comments You can follow this conversation by subscribing to the comment feed for this post. This is getting sad... How many more posts dedicated to White? Has White even written this many posts about Caner? The Convention is coming right up, how about a productive post dealing with the Convention, GCR, SBC Presidency, or something!?! Posted by: Matt Svoboda | 2010.06.07 at 01:10 PM I am not a blogger, nor do I posses the literary skills to make a long articulate plea to Dr. Lumkins or James White. However, I am a pastor that admires the intellect and the ability to construct coherent argumentation in each of the men above. I have never commented on these blogs, and I may regret this…But as brothers in Christ you guys need to pick up a telephone and settle this. Response-Rebuttal-Response-Rebuttal-Response-Rebuttal; Is the Lord really glorified in all of this? For the record I think Ergun Caner (And I have known him since Criswell college days together) is guilty of embellishment to sensationalize his speaking engagements. The tragic thing is he does not need it… He is an exceptional expositor of the Word. I think James White is guilty of envy. He often interjects his qualifications as a debater, professor, and lecturer and seems offended that anyone would consider Caner to possess the same types of skill. I have heard him say more than once, “He claims to do what I have been doing….” James, you are on the same team! He does not need to trumpet his horn either. Just look at all the doors God has opened for him. I cannot wait to hear the debate with Hitchens. I think Peter Lumkins is guilty of retaliation. One doubts that the microscope you have placed on James White would have never occurred had it not been for his barrage on Dr. Caner. So pick up the phone (This is for James White as well, since apparently he reads your blog frequently) and settle this. Then tell us what we should think about the GCR report. Posted by: David | 2010.06.07 at 01:16 PM David, Welcome. I hope you never post anything anywhere you come to regret. Indeed such a dictum has been my blogging 'motto' (if that is the proper word) since 2006--post only that about which you will never regret and/or must publicly retract. And, while I've not managed to follow it perfectly, it still rings my bell each and ever time I slide my cursor toward "publish." Know for the record, your words are appreciated, and you need feel no regret for posting them. At least, that's my take. With that, I am... Peter Posted by: peter | 2010.06.07 at 02:23 PM Les shut up. Posted by: Debbie Kaufman | 2010.06.07 at 02:26 PM God in heaven, can't you see what you all are doing? All of you just shut up. Posted by: Debbie Kaufman | 2010.06.07 at 02:34 PM Debbie, Maybe you're confused. This is Peter's blog, not Les. I dont see any comments by Les in here. Maybe you accidently went to the wrong blog? I dont know. Matt, I think Peter is just trying to counteract all the blogs that are "after" Dr. Caner right now, and he's trying to get everyone to reserve judgment until the facts are all in. He's trying to get everyone to not listen to the attack dogs, who have a bone to pick with Dr. Caner....to not swallow everything they hear from this crowd, and make quick judgments on a Bro. in Christ. David Posted by: volfan007 | 2010.06.07 at 02:36 PM Ms. Kaufman, Please know my site is definitively Baptist. My spiritual forefathers lived persecuted lives--and many died horrid deaths--so we Baptists today could pursue freedom of expression. Hence, to yell, "Shut up" to historic Baptists is not at all dissimilar to yelling, "off with your heads." Consider: you enjoy your little haven of freely expressing yourself over at your place, I'm sure. Please do not show back up here hysterically yelling "shut up." Thanks. With that, I am... Peter Posted by: peter | 2010.06.07 at 02:43 PM Debbie When you have half of the righteous indignation over the heresy that your big buddy Wm Paul printed in his book and defended on radio programs, then you have the right to tell someone to "Shut up". When you're willing to proclaim salvation solely through Jesus Christ rather than telling MoKahn his faith in Allah and practice of Islam is sufficient to save him, then you can tell someone to "Shut up". Untill then, you are the one who needs to "Shut up". Posted by: Joe Blackmon | 2010.06.07 at 03:13 PM Ok I'm just gonna talk/type this out to see if I've got it all straight. We have a woman who with every other sentance in the blogosphere sceams at the top of her lungs "I AM A CHRISTIAN WOMAN I AM I AM I AM I AM!" wOMAN says "Here's the evidence decide for yourselves but the only right answer is that I AM RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT AND YOU ARE AN IDIOT IF YOU DON'T SEE IT!" WOMAN than proceeds to post and repost the same things over and over and over and over all the while screaming "YOU ARE NOT GOING TO SHUT ME UP YOU NAZIS" Than WOMAN proceeds to other blog and screams "SHUT UP" all the while still professing that she is A CHRISTIAN WOMAN and not only that but as A CHRISTIAN WOMAN she is qualified to determine through the internet - hearts, motivations and minds of everyone who disagrees with her beause she is such great CHIRSITAN WOMAN. OH and let's not forget that WOMAN and other sycophants actually continue to lie and try to mislead about what the bloggers she wants to SHUT UP are actually sayig which is not Ergun Caner is innocent on all counts, but simply Let's see this through to the end before judgement is passed. Am I missing something? Anybody, anybody Bueller??? Oh and the Calvinist down in some other thread who suggested I study Calvnism - You silly! Everyone knows only Calvinist can really understand Calvinism. Maybe I just had too much sun today and this is all a crazy dream. I really have no clue why any reasonable sane person would continue to think credible a woman who actually believes that the SBC and Muslims treat their women the same. But hey so much for calling out for integrity and truth - don't want to distract anyone. Only certian people are allowed to call out for intregrity and truth. Talk about revealing hearts. Posted by: Mary | 2010.06.07 at 03:36 PM Peter, I read your blog frequently and have done so for pretty much your whole time of blogging. I have also been silent but remain so no more. I appreciate your thorough research and debunking of the Hardshell Calvinists. They most often take the tactic of personal destruction to advance their cause. Their other repeatedly used tactic is to try and shut down anyone who either defends themselves from their attacks or from others who expose them for who they really are, Sectarians. While their followers approve of and even encourage them to personally attack who they see as opponents, they are quick to call for peace and civility once they have been uncovered. However their plea is almost exclusively directed only at the exposer and not the ones exposed. I find them pathetic, hypocritical, and comical in their arguments. Keep up the good work and the good fight. For you Hardshell Calvinists, read the first 3 chapters of 1 Corinthians again and again. We are not to be sectarian, period. Posted by: Steve Allem | 2010.06.07 at 03:42 PM To Matt: White has written FAR, FAR more articles concerning the Caner brothers than Peter has even begun to write. White has been specifically trying to destroy them since October, 2009. To David: I fully understand your concern. Unfortunately, calling James White would not work. He would simply use it (the phone call) to blast Peter and others. I agree with others: this is so VERY sad. What we are being exposed to can be found in different places in scripture. In many of these places, we are told to "withdraw" -- GET AWAY FROM THEM. Why? For our spiritual well being in my humble opinion. Here is one of the scriptures: 1 Timothy 6: 3 If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness, 4he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions, 5useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself. Peter, I am not fussing at you at all. I understand what you have been trying to do -- to educate people as to what the real truth is. You have done a remarkably GREAT job. The bad thing is that people like James White thrive on this stuff -- they will keep on "keeping on" to draw us even further into their evil ways. Galatians 5 says it so clearly: 13For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. 14For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." 15But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another! Notice verse 15 in particular. I have seen this happen so VERY frequently in Paltalk, particularly from and among the calvinists (not all but the majority of them in Paltalk). We need to guard our hearts and not be consumed with this. After all, God WILL set everything straight in His timing. Just a few thoughts of mine that I wanted to pass on. Posted by: Mlynn | 2010.06.07 at 05:32 PM Well said Steve Allem. I don't know about your use of language there, but folks, please be carefully of blaspheming .. the comment following the psychotic demand to shut up is most concerning. Posted by: Steve | 2010.06.07 at 05:50 PM yes Mary, you pretty well have the words right. That is exactly what I am saying. Posted by: Debbie Kaufman | 2010.06.07 at 06:17 PM Except for the Nazis part. I never said the word Nazis. The rest is pretty accurate, word wise I mean. Posted by: Debbie Kaufman | 2010.06.07 at 06:19 PM Mary, Behave yourself. I almost choked on my supper over here. You need to try to be good--at least for a little while. I know it's hard but you can do it if you try. Posted by: Joe Blackmon | 2010.06.07 at 06:26 PM Mary For a WOMAN...you ROCK! Jack Posted by: Jack Maddox | 2010.06.07 at 06:31 PM Hey...where are all my posts? What am I, Chopped Liver? Your's in Pate'... Posted by: Craig Daliessio | 2010.06.07 at 10:18 PM Craig, I think all of your comments are posted minus your 'Dr. Seuss" jingle. A few lines are fairly vulgar enough to keep off the main thread. Clean it up a bit and be a hero! Thanks, bro. With that, I am... Peter Posted by: peter | 2010.06.08 at 07:12 AM You went literary critic on Dr. Seuss??? Oh the humanities. It's fine. That was yesterdays news. Hey do you have an email I can send you something privately? Posted by: Craig Daliessio | 2010.06.08 at 10:46 AM Craig, Well, I have to keep up an appearance of civility ;^) With that, I am... Peter P.S. I sent you an email... Posted by: peter | 2010.06.08 at 10:58 AM All this talk of Doctors and such... and all this attacking a man named Butch. Let's settle this with sweet tea and beef jerky... I am quite sure he is from Turkey. I'll bring the foo-foozles and the Klimmety Klountain. We'll all meet as friends on Liberty Mountain. This talk of whether Mehmet used to be "Mike" Makes James White the only human I ever disliked. I spent my life seeing the best in all men But James White has me thinking and rethinking again. So away with you Whiteheads and Chock-full-of-Khans Stop all the battling like Mafia Dons At times Dear friend Caner can be subtle as a moose But only James White could tick off Dr. Suess! Love to all, T. Geisel Posted by: Craig Daliessio | 2010.06.08 at 11:49 AM Joe, I'm gonna behave now because there's just no challenge when someone displays such an inability in reading comprehension. It just makes me really sad that there are some poor people whose only validation in life comes from the internet (and I'm really not trying to be snarky here.) No matter what happens here on out God is on His throne and will see His will done. Does He need Joan of Arc to accomplish anything on this matter from this point on? Nah not so much. Summer calls! Blessings EVERYONE! Posted by: Mary | 2010.06.08 at 01:44 PM Let's just say that I agree with the concerned pastor (David I think his name was, and no it wasn't me) that the best way to get this settled would be a phone call or two with an explanation of terms, giving each other the benefit of the doubt, etc. For the record, I don't think either man (either Dr. Lumpkins or Dr. White) is innocent of taking things out of context or misrepresenting the other. I've come to the conclusion that the blogosphere is a medium that lends to this kind of thing rather than helps alleviate it, and it takes great amounts of careful and prayer-filled effort to avoid it. In any case, Dr. Lumpkins, I would love for you to call Dr. White and discuss this, or, email him with a phone number to call you. Or, if you would like, I'd be happy to communicate a phone number to him. My email I think is in your blog file (as I put it in every time I comment). a hopeful worm, dbh Posted by: David Benjamin Hewitt | 2010.06.08 at 04:22 PM David, First, you mention the best way to "get this settled" would be a phone call. Why would the best way to get this settled be a phone call? How would James White explain any better via voice the rapid-fire personal insults about "no integrity" "incapable" of honesty, etc than he would by writing a clear explanation? Besides, White publicly wrote his 'Alex' blog. Hence, if he has any clarification, he should publicly write that as well. I simply do *not* accept your premise, David. Second, recall the last time I had actual contact with James White he plastered the email on his blog and blasted away accusing me of "impugning his integrity." What a hoot. I contact him privately but he posts what I privately wrote just to him publicly, and then slams me for public slander! C.S. Lewis once said, "they strangely cut out the organ and demand the function." One cannot breach trust so deliberately and then expect others to trust nonetheless. I don't think I'll be talking "in private" via voice or email anytime soon. Third, your response constitutes the quintessential action of a man who knows he cannot answer the question without losing a substantial amount of relational capital. So, you play it safe: Why White *and* I are both guilty of a non-identified glop of literary misdemeanors. I suppose this ends our exchange. Grace to you. With that, I am... Peter Posted by: peter | 2010.06.08 at 05:54 PM No, Dr. Lumpkins, it wasn't "playing it safe." Indeed, as I consider Dr. White my friend, and as you've put me into the category of White's supporters (which in many regards, I am one) I figured you would instead take my saying that both of you have committed the errors I mentioned, however nebulous the reference may have been, would have been considered by you to be progress in resolving some of the disagreement/accusations/insertappropriatenounhere. You said: "Why would the best way to get this settled be a phone call? How would James White explain any better via voice the rapid-fire personal insults about "no integrity" "incapable" of honesty, etc than he would by writing a clear explanation? Besides, White publicly wrote his 'Alex' blog. Hence, if he has any clarification, he should publicly write that as well. I simply do *not* accept your premise, David." You are of course welcome to reject it; I am not suggesting that I have any authority or pull or whatever. I'm a worm, as I've said a few times now. Try not to think of me as much more than that. :) All the same, however, I'd like to ask a question: how willing are you to get this settled? Obviously the medium of the blog has failed to do so on either end of the matter, yours or his. You said yourself in this very post something that you accepted as at least a possibility: "Perhaps this weakness may explain, at least in part, why White prefers debate encounters with spoken word rather than written word (hence, his lament I presumably am a coward because I will not have a "face to face" with him via DL or other venue). I do not know this, obviously. I am only attempting to understand how an accomplished apologist like James White could so badly botch clear, unambiguous assertions his opponent makes. " Of course, you do not know this, but a phone call would be a good way to inform the matter, don't you think? This whole matter is something I really do not like at all, that is, brothers in Christ being so at odds with each other over, well, anything. You two have talked past each other, and there have been inaccuracies on both sides, largely in part as a failure to give each other the benefit of the doubt. If you like, I could go over some of that "glop of literary misdemeanors" as you call it in the comment you wrote responding to my comment were I was upset and even a little angry. Since it was directed at me, I figured it would be reasonable to offer that example for explanation. Anyway, enough for now. A pleasant and blessed evening to you, sir. still a worm, but saved by grace, dbh Posted by: David Benjamin Hewitt | 2010.06.08 at 06:23 PM Question Peter, I believe I have a verse that we could all heed pertaining to the dung excreted daily at the blogs of James White and Debbi Kaufmann. I Tim. 2:23 "Foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strife"The blogposts authored by these individuals should be avoided like the plague for they contain a plethora of rhetorical questions allowing one a glimspe inside corrupted, contaminated minds. I find James White and Debbi Kauffman to be the epitome of "foolish" and "unlearned". "Foolish" stems from a root that translates "to be silly". "Unlearned" pertains to those whose rationale can be attributed to a lack of teaching and instruction. (Cont.)We cannot blame Debbi for this shortcoming for she absorbs a dumbing does of Wade Burelson's rhetoric weekly...I guess Mr. White's shortcomings were decreed to bring God glory. Anywho...this brings us to a critical point. Instead of allowing silly, unlearned questions for the "self" to bombard us...we should heed the words of Paul and "avoid" them. Though "avoid" in the text pertains to "decline", we can apply this principle by ignoring absolutely every thought process generated by the pens of these who appear touched with a little more depravity than the rest. Personally, I have found that engagement with their ideas, perhaps deriving from acute dimentia, cause groanings within my soul, thus generating "strife", in a different, but relevant sense. It also appears to be causing much strife within the family of God on earth. So there we have it...we should avoid foolish and unlearned questions (even rhetorical) that gender strife, internally and externally. Next verse of atomic importance... "The servant of the Lord must not strive". "Strive" here conveys "to fight". I will cease further quarrels with brethren regarding anything spawned from the Caner matter, for I realize such disputes are of no use to the Slavemaster. Everyone should quit grinding their axes and assume the slave position. don't you think? David Campbell P.S. I find Mr. Fight's comment in regards to your character to be the most fallacious yet. I do love how you put the smack down on him, and would enjoy reading further disputes...but I think that desire comes from the spiritual cancer I inherited from my parents. Thank you very much for the book recommendation you sent via email and helping me with my questions. I don't really know why I just typed all this up...but since I have....I'll press "post". Posted by: David Campbell | 2010.06.08 at 08:07 PM Hopefully Richard Dawkins will soon develop a diagnostics tool that could aid in revealing the toxic logic of James White and Debbi Kaufmann originates in a viral meme they contracted from their dialogue with anti-christ muslims. Posted by: David Campbell | 2010.06.08 at 08:09 PM Mr. Campbell, you said: "I believe I have a verse that we could all heed pertaining to the dung excreted daily at the blogs of James White and Debbi Kaufmann. I Tim. 2:23 "Foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strife"The blogposts authored by these individuals should be avoided like the plague for they contain a plethora of rhetorical questions allowing one a glimspe inside corrupted, contaminated minds." Here's the problem: I'm pretty certain that those on the other side of the fence would be willing to employ that verse and others like it to Dr. L and people such as yourself. The problem isn't resolved that way, really; both sides cannot be right as they are articulating contradictory things. This is why I maintain a kind of getting together, such as a phone call (maybe something else, though I don't know what it would be) to talk things out. Still a worm, dbh Posted by: David Benjamin Hewitt | 2010.06.08 at 08:24 PM David, I’m uninterested in exchanging back and forth with nothing to show for it but going further away from the thread. I mentioned earlier there may be plenty of room in my closet for a useful broom to swing. However, this thread is definitively not about my dusty floors no matter how thick it may be. Instead it is about James White’s response to me. Now, either James White grossly and unfairly argued his point splattering gallons of personally offensive tar toward his opponent in his “critique,” as I’ve stated, offering plenty of proof for the pudding, or he didn’t. Yet, instead of dealing with the issue, you inject me into the equation as if he and I are together guilty. No David. That rhetoric is not going to work. You write: “You are of course welcome to reject it.” Fine. I do. Why then do you run around to my back door and knock again with your next line?: “All the same, however, I'd like to ask a question: how willing are you to get this settled?” Understand, David: I do not view you as you view yourself—a reconciler for James White. Only a few months ago you attempted this same self-appointed go-between in addressing Tony Byrne. James White wrote publicly what he did and as far as I am concerned James White can deal with it publicly. Nor do I accept this premise: “Obviously the medium of the blog has failed to do so on either end of the matter, yours or his.” I beg pardon. I do not at all believe what I’ve written has failed. In fact, I think it well documents and succeeds in demonstrating White’s pattern of moral cheap shots routinely thrown at many of his critics. At least no one is disputing them—not even you, David. You’re just ignoring them and continue to try to make the issue about me *and* White, attempting to play reconciler. Now, I can appreciate that so far as motive goes, I suppose. However, there is no need of a reconciler; there is need of willingness to state the obvious. Again, “…but a phone call would be a good way to inform the matter, don't you think?” Did you not read my comment? I suggest you go back again. I told you specifically why a call is out of the question. You write: “You two have talked past each other…” Excuse me? Did you copy/paste your words your wrote to Tony Byrne on my blog a few months back? David those are the very words you wrote to Tony. Please brother. This is really getting goofy. Then Tony and White were “talking past each other.” Now it’s me and White ‘talking past each other’. Again, “and there have been inaccuracies on both sides…” David, you will not take this thread in that direction. Do not log back on again with a similar assertion. I will not post it. Get this straight: the thread is about James White’s response to me. Not mine to him. If you can’t handle this, the exchange is over. Nor am I interested in any thing I penned to you on another thread. You had opportunity to address it then. Why you’d want to bring that up is intriguing, however. Is it just another way to get the thread focused on me instead of James White? Well, I’d say it is. The strategy of many White supporters relentlessly focuses on White’s critic. Not going to happen, David. Again, my closet may be in need of a good sweeping. I’ve not denied such. In fact, I guess it could be said James White swept my closet with his “Alex” piece. But, the question is, did James White use a proper tool like a broom, or did he run my house down with a bulldozer? I argue the latter. Hence, please do not come back, David, with assertions that the issue is both of us are guilty, or attempting to make this thread about me and my failures rather than White’s critique. With that, I am… Peter Posted by: peter | 2010.06.08 at 09:32 PM I found myself with time to kill and so I went through a few of James Whites video ramblings. Out of rampant curiosity, and in the interest of fairness I decided to give a thorough listen on the odd chance that perhaps it was I who indeed had the problem. I listened thoroughly and found it still wanting horribly and I could not discern what the attraction is to his followers. Then I went through and added a laugh track after each paragraph...NOW I see why he packs a house! Just a Tasty Bass looking for a juicy worm... Mr. Daliessio's love child Posted by: Craig Daliessio | 2010.06.08 at 09:41 PM David, White's actions regarding the previously mentioned private email correspondence from Peter, would give any reasonable person pause before trying to contact him again for anything. White apparently has a history of similar behavioral patterns as well as a history of incessant ad hominem attacks on a number of people. Such repetitive actions of this nature would lead even the most dispassionate and amicable person to conclude he is untrustworthy to approach in any personal manner. Further, apart from Peter conceding to White that he is 100% right and he (Peter) is but an inferior intellectual and wrong on everything, what point is there? Is there any person of even limited discernment out there that believes White will accept anything less than total capitulation? When one decides to use carpet bombing (or atomic bombs - pick whichever metaphor you prefer), one is not looking for middle ground, or peaceful co-existence. One is looking for unconditional surrender and utter annihilation. Blessings, A worm also, Ron P. Posted by: Ron Phillips, Sr. | 2010.06.08 at 09:54 PM Thanks for trying to be a peacemaker, but I don't think it will work in this case. I don't know when the trouble started between the two men and I don't care to know. In this particular case I believe (correct me if wrong Peter) it started with Mr. White and his followers continually posting items about Mr. Caner. It would be one thing to state apparent contradictions in what Mr. Caner said, but to hear and read day after day about how bad Mr. Caner is I believe was just a bit too much for Peter. Because Peter would consider Mr. Caner at the very least a brother in Christ and possibly a friend, he responded with his own blog attacking the attacker. Is it all nice and kind. No, but what would you do if a friend of your's was mocked and ridiculed daily, even if the charges were true? Again Peter correct me if I have miss spoken. Finally David I would ask you and anyone else that is trying to burn Mr. Caner at the stake, consider if you will, whom you would consider to be the most spiritual men in your camp. I did not ask who is the most knowledgable, funniest or best looking. I asked who is the most spiritual. Now I am not a Calvinist by any stretch, but I do try to stay up on what they write and say. Here is what I found out about the leading Calvinists whom I consider to be the most spiritual on the Caner matter - NOTHING! I didn't say that they didn't have thoughts or opinions about the matter. What I'm saying is they are not constantly broadcasting to the world their thoughts on the matter. Because they are spiritual I believe they take John 8:7 to heart. Thanks Don Posted by: Don Johnson | 2010.06.08 at 10:07 PM DBH... your signature troubles me...you are hidden in Christ . You are the adopted son of the creator of the universe. Maybe you once WERE a worm...but why continue claiming that which you are not? Gravy on the stove, water boiling for the macaroni... Daliessio Posted by: Craig Daliessio | 2010.06.08 at 10:14 PM Don, I think you're essentially correct: it is not about reconciliation. I'd have to ask reconciliation to what? Between two men who's never met each other? Two men who've substantially no visible relationship whatsoever? It seems to me "reconciliation" presumes a prior state of healthy relationship. Further, it's White who appears to think I am not a believer; hence, it is White who needs to deal with that, not me. Thanks again. With that, I am... Peter Posted by: peter | 2010.06.09 at 07:27 AM Ron, You hit it squarely: For James White there is no concession short of total surrender to his point of view. He even mentioned in his critique my being "unrepentant in irrationality" concerning a former piece I wrote. Think about that a moment--"unrepentant" is associated in Scripture with sin and sinful lifestyle. White "thinks" if I do not "think" like he "thinks" it is a sin in which I wallow until I "repent" and "think" like he "thinks." I "think" White has everyone where he wants them. What do you "think"? With that, I am... Peter Posted by: peter | 2010.06.09 at 07:38 AM To David Campbell: that was a GREAT verse and explanation you gave. Thank you!! Peter -- LOLOLOL @ your comment: "White "thinks" if I do not "think" like he "thinks" it is a sin in which I wallow until I "repent" and "think" like he "thinks." I "think" White has everyone where he wants them. What do you "think"?" Posted by: Mlynn | 2010.06.09 at 11:18 AM I took the time to do some counting of articles written in 2010 written by James White in his blog that at the very least mention the Caner brothers, with many being devoted to them exclusively. Here is the count: February, 2010: 4 March, 2010: 13 April, 2010: 13 May, 2010: 20 As of June 8, 2010: 6 Peter, I saw him addressing you in a few articles as well. LOLOL I just thought it would be good for people to see just how obsessed some are in regards to this whole mess. Posted by: Mlynn | 2010.06.09 at 11:57 AM I'll tell you this much, my dear brother Peter: Satan is laughing at both you and James White. The lingering bitterness and/or dispute that rages between the two of you is probably not a healthy thing - physically or spiritually. Bro. Peter, I love you and have been praying for both you and James White. I agree with the commenter above who called for phone interaction between you two brothers. I'll tell you this much: if someone were call me, humble and broken and desiring forgiveness/reconciliation, I'd give it unflinchingly. I believe James White has a critical spirit, but I'm willing to bet he walks in the light of revelation as he best understands it. I think you do, too, Peter. But, for Christ's sake, and as an example to young preachers and bloggers such as myself, seek reconciliation NOW. I believe, Bro. Peter, that you have the power of the Holy Spirit which can bring healing between yourself and James White. How glorious it would be to see public restoration. I'd probably weep at such a thing. Love in Christ, Ed Goodman Matthew 5:23-24 Posted by: Ed Goodman | 2010.06.09 at 12:26 PM Ed, While reconciliation is a good thing, its not going to happen anytime soon. The first thing that needs to happen(though not the only thing) is for Mr. White and his associates to stop the attacks on Mr. Caner. Both Mr. White and his associates have already stated in no uncertain terms that they are not going to stop their assult on Mr. Caner. This is why I say reconciliation will not happen anytime soon. Though I don't know you I appreciate the spirit and tenor of your post. Thanks Don Posted by: Don Johnson | 2010.06.09 at 01:38 PM I, for one, am convinced that James White is the inspiration for "Rainman" "Of course you need to repent...yeah...of course you need to repent" "15 minutes to Dividing Line" "Of course I'm a very good apologist...yeah" He's like the Steve Martin skit from SNL a long time ago: "Theodoric of York...Medieval Barber" Where the answer to every problem was to apply leeches. White has "Repent Sir!" as his wild joker, and he actually plays it with serious straight face. No matter the argument, if he can't convince you to blindly accept his position, he calls you a non believer and tells you to repent. May I suggest a pay per view event Me vs White in some one-on-one shinny. Posted by: Craig Daliessio | 2010.06.09 at 02:37 PM Ed, I trust you are well. Know it won't be the first time, I confess, if Satan is hee-hawing away at me. I must also confess, though, as with David above, I do not get an appeal you're making to "reconcile." To what am I obligated to reconcile? Please understand: I am dead serious. I have no desire to pursue sophistry, rationalizing failed behavior, if in fact I've failed. Indeed, here is the way I see it: if I had to write these last two posts again, while a word or two may be different, I would be completely satisfied that my responses to James White were worthy, respectable responses. Hence, my confusion when someone says, "You two need to be reconciled." The only thing I can figure it means is, if James White writes a blog, then to be reconciled is, do not write a response to the blog. Believe it or not, that's what I'm hearing when this is said to me. If I am correct, I will make no commitment to be "reconciled" if that's what "reconciled" means. Now, allow me to say hopefully for the final time: I have no desire to speak with James White privately. I have no desire to exchange with James White via private email. None. I cannot trust him not to go public with the private exchange. Written exchange works exceptionally well if proper etiquette is pursued. Grace. Wish we could meet for coffee in Orlando. Ah, but... With that, I am... Peter Posted by: peter | 2010.06.09 at 07:39 PM Peter wrote: "I cannot trust him not to go public with the private exchange. Written exchange works exceptionally well if proper etiquette is pursued." Trust me on this point...he can NOT be trusted to extend such a courtesy. It is often the sign of a desperate man when he will resort to ANY tact to win an argument Posted by: Craig Daliessio | 2010.06.09 at 08:26 PM Bro. Peter, I certainly respect your right to voice your opinion and to exercise your liberty of conscience. Although I am a nothing more than a voice crying in the wilderness, I take my caling as a youth minister seriously. One thing I regularly drive home to my youth is that the absolute truth of Scripture is redemptive and reliable. The imperatives of the Bible MUST be obeyed. I also understand that it's healthy to exchange ideas and trade thoughts, particularly via the written word. So my problem is not with the ACT of posting responses to James White; my issue (read: what I seek to understand) is with the SPIRIT of your posts, Peter. Make no mistake: I disagree with many things James White does. But he, like you, will always be my brother in Christ. Period. I guess what I don't understand is why you have no desire to speak to White privately. I ask myself: how would I handle this type of fighting within my youth group? Answer: I would encourage communication among the feuding parties, privately with a mediator or two. I see your perpspective, Bro. Peter. And my response in this context is not an indictment; I simply seek to understand your perspective. Disunity or conflict of any kind distresses my heart, particularly one of this magnitude and visibility. I wonder if you would agree, Peter, that your lack of desire to speak with White privately cannot be countered against the mandates of Matthew 18 in handling a dispute. The only argument against private counsel would be that a dispute doesn't exist. If you go there, I'd say you had the rest of us fooled. Most every reader of this blog would likely assume a feud between you and White. In any case, you know I love you, brother. My sole desire in posting this is to understand your perspective more precisely. Any disagreements we may have contain no ability, in my view, of disrupting our fellowship and healthy discussion. My prayers will continue for both you and James White, and if you are ever near Kentucky, I'd sure love to talk over coffee. Love in Christ, Ed Goodman Ephesians 4:3 P.S. Thanks to Don Johnson for his encouraging words. Posted by: Ed Goodman | 2010.06.10 at 12:47 AM Ed, Thanks again. And, I’m glad you think it’s a public good for liberty of conscience to exist. I am further pleased you teach teenagers the authority of Scripture stands supreme. The problem you see is not, then, the “ACT” of posting responses to James White; rather it’s the “SPIRIT” of my posts. O.K. Ed. What do you mean by “SPIRIT” of my posts? I’ve already confessed if I rewrote my posts, I’d change very little. So the “SPIRIT” about which you discern I must be totally blind. Therefore, I need one or two examples from the post itself from which you discerned a bad “SPIRIT” in my posts. You also affirm James White and myself as as your brother in Christ. Granted. I have to ask, where have I disaffirmed or implied James White is not my brother in the Lord? You write, “Make no mistake: I disagree with many things James White does” but he will always be your brother in the Lord. How is such a confession, Ed, substantially different from what I’ve done in writing this OP, outside of my filling in the blanks where you left them empty? You’ve publicly stated you disagree with many things James White does. It seems to me the difference between us at that point is, I put teeth in the “many things” while you have not. Know I’m not trying to point a finger at you, Ed, and say, “See you do it too; hence it must be O.K.” I’m simply trying to understand your point, brother. Interestingly, while I have not to my knowledge questioned whether White is a believer, his posts are filled with personal innuendo which suggests I am not a believer. Hence, I am not his brother in Christ. Don’t forget the “coppersmith” from Georgia analogy :^) But frankly that’s White’s problem, not mine. Now, Ed, whether or not you agree, I’ve stated clearly why I am uninterested in private communication with James White. Allow me once again and it will be the final time I mention this. I do not trust James White via private email or private voice communication. It’s really that simple. Nor does my distrust have anything to do with whether I view him a brother in Christ any more than it would determine whether I viewed a fellow church member with loose lips a brother or sister in Christ. There’s plenty of folks I can think of I’ve known through the years with whom I would not be caught dead sharing personal data. Why? They could not be trusted with the info. Indeed they gave me good reason to not trust them. Simple. Now, please, let this go, Ed. Now, as for Matt 18 handling a dispute like we have in blog threads, I’ve encountered before. I hear what you’re saying, but do not at all think to appeal to our Lord’s words here is relevant for at least a few reasons I’ll be glad to mention. A) Jesus was specifically referencing local church relationships; that is, He presumes close, committed body-life connections to keep the local fellowship healthy. It’s fuzzy, at best, to see how this particular mandate is to be observed with two or more people—albeit Christians--who’ve never met or have no other relationship outside the universal body of Christ. If you are correct, indeed such would mean, for example, if a Korean Christian in Seoul made a an unbiblical remark or somehow personally insulted me, I’d be obligated to track the person down and work it out privately before I dealt with it publicly. Hence, I do not think Jesus had this mandate in mind for the universal church, Ed. The impracticality or unlivibility of the ethic seems entirely against it. Even so, supposing you are correct, it does place you in the pickle-barrel with me as well, for if you have a personal problem with the way I handle James White—not “ACT” of responding but “SPIRIT” of responding—then the most proper thing for you to have done would have been to pick up a phone and call me or send me a private email. Instead, you publicly indicted me on a public blog thread for bearing a wrong “SPIRIT” in my responses to White. Now, I do not at all feel indicted or believe you to’ve actually indicted me because I do not hold your assumptions about the words our blessed Lord speaks to be applicable here. However, from my understanding what you’re saying about Matt 18, I do not see how you personally escape the Lord’s mandate given your interpretation. B) The infallible words our Lord spoke begins with the process in private. Blogs on the other hand are public records. For example, James White charges publicly that I am a liar; that I possess no desire for truth or honesty; that I have no moral integrity; that I seek power and influence, nothing more; I am analogous to an unbeliever who tramples under-foot the apostolic gospel; that I am utterly incapable of honesty or research or both; etc etc etc. From my perspective, public accusations which mark people in this manner should be dealt with publicly. Indeed because it is public, settling it privately is non sequitur. C) The Lord’s words specifically are directed toward personal trespass. Ed, this is definitively not exclusively about me personally. It’s true I’ve used White’s “responses” toward me as the models to rebut. However, frankly I do not treat White’s argumentation breaches so much as “sin” or “trespass”—especially on a personal level—as I do inferior, fallacious method of argumentation. Hence, it’s not so much “James White sinned against me” (which is what David Hewett apparently wanted me to confess) as it is “James White argues poorly and here’s the proof.” Hence, to make this into a “feud” so to speak between me and James White is to fundamentally misunderstand the nature of the conflict from my perspective. In particular, the invalid, unfair ridiculous argumentation White passes off as normal exchange cannot be acceptable in any format, formal or informal. I specifically listed in the OP what was unacceptable argumentation and what was acceptable argumentation (roughly, Part I = unacceptable and totally inappropriate); Part II acceptable but totally mistaken). The way I understand “feud” if one says white, the other says black. I assure you, that is neither my attitude nor my practice with James White. Indeed there’s many things I admire about James White. And to answer a predictable question from a White supporter, allow me: James White is a very good author. I have three of his books from which I have benefited much (KJO, though it needs a revision due to some mistakes Bob L. Ross has exposed; The Trinity; and the Hunt/White debate) James White is a very keen thinker. No one should presumptuously enter a discussion with James White thinking him a weak mind. He’s quick and can spit out a volley of sources before you can blink James White is consistently minded. He pursues logical consistency in almost every argument he makes (unfortunately, it is also a weakness and what fundamentally pushes him toward Hyper-Calvinism) James White has successfully defended historic Christianity in a number of ways against many substantial & varied worldview challenges James White in many ways has, at least in the past, been one of the most visible apologists in the formal debate settings (his weakness at this point is not in skill but in wrongly assuming little, if any, value exists in less than formal exchanges other apologists have) James White is well read James White has made some good contributions in cultural criticism, one of which deals with homosexuality (another helpful book I have) James White is an inerrantist James White rightly is a Baptist (albeit a ‘Primative’ or ‘Reformed’ Baptist) Is this enough or do I need to continue, Ed? I affirm none of the above lightly nor certainly with insincerity. From my perspective, to dispute any of the above would spark a “could you please show me how White is not as I described him?” conversation. On the other hand, at a much deeper level, it is about the argumentative methods James White employs toward a number of people to whom he responds. He makes people into liars who disagree with him theologically. For example, James White turns Tony Byrne, David Allen and others into liars who “bear false witness” because they sincerely, honestly intellectually conclude James White’s view on God’s love transforms his view into Hyper-Calvinism. Instead of being a dispute of ideas—saying Byrne and Allen are grossly mistaken about his views, for example—James White skips the option of intellectual mistakenness and instead makes it a moral issue by pronouncing them liars. This is, in my view, reckless argumentation that must be publicly confronted. James White is, in fact, doing exactly what he accuses his theological detractors of doing, “bearing false witness.” Allen and Byrne are not lying, for heaven’s sake—unless of course, it’s not about intellectual conclusions from empirical evidence. In other words, for Byrne & Allen to be lying, it would have to be them knowingly, informedly, and intentionally understanding what Hyper-Calvinism to actually be, and, in the face of absolutely knowing James White’s view does not fit theological Hyper-Calvinism, to unequivocally state it does nonetheless. This is morally absurd. Coming from one who respects logical consistency so much, White’s charge, in itself, seems fantastic to me. Now, White obviously is blind to his weakness. Hence, he’s not budging—at least no sign yet he will. Nor will his community deal with it. Indeed most of them embrace it and parrot the same moral ignorance. Couple that with James White’s ‘free pass’ he’s received among Southern Baptists to continually criticize at his pleasure, and you have an out-of-control situation. Indeed the fact we’ve allowed a ‘free-pass’ to White historically has, in my view, spurred him to relentlessly go after Ergun Caner non-stop. As for me, I consider his free-pass expired. If James White wants to publicly feed on what he perceives as weaknesses of Southern Baptists, then he’d better have his tires fully aired, because so far as I am concerned, my engine is cranked. Grace again, Ed. We’ll have that coffee sometime, brother. Every so often I do get up toward Blue Grass. I get a hankering for a Hot Brown and Derby Pie! With that, I am… Peter Posted by: peter | 2010.06.10 at 09:54 AM Peter...thank you yet again for your gracious and wonderfully thought out responses. My take on White is different altogether and granted it is far more emotionally engined. I escaped his sort of legalism barely with my life. I came to Christ quite literally with a gun in my mouth and without a good reason not to let a twitch be the last thing I felt on this coil. One split-second intervention by the Holy Spirit is why I write this today. I was 30 years old and had been in church faithfully since I was 8. For 22 years I attended three services a week and sat under the kind of soul imprisoning, lifeless spiritless Graceless message that James White employs. I hated God and was pretty certain the feeling was mutual. What passed for "line upon line..." was, in fact, link upon link chain upon chain until, as with Marley's tragic ghost it was "a ponderous chain indeed". I see in White all that I detested and all that I had to work for years after my salvation to expunge from my soul. The danger of James White is certainly not his wealth of facts and technical knowledge, but his displacement of the Spirit of God with those facts. His premium is on the God he can contain in his mind, not the God who would blow through his soul like a desert wind. As you stated, James White does not debate...not in the traditional way. James White assaults. To attach the validity of someones salvation to their response to your technical prowess or their agreement with your teachings is manipulation on a grand scale. What I know is this...I had a head-on collision with Jesus Christ at the moment when my life most clearly hung in the balance. I have never been the same. I am violently against the legalism that drove me to the barrel of a gun. You and Hussein Werio have disputed successfully the great majority of the Caner issues until what remains are middling snippets and minor issues that could just as easily be explained as spliced video tape or simply a man who, after 27 years doesn't get minor details of his story straight. At WORST that would require a brotherly arm on the shoulder and a thorough "Listen brother...you might not have even noticed this but you were inconsistent here and here and here...etc" Caner explains and / or makes corrections and voila! Body unharmed, no mainstream media, all is well. That was NEVER what James White desired from day one. This is the culmination of 4 years of envy. James White desires the fame ( or notoriety ) that Caner has been attached to. I experienced first hand the fact that he cannot be trusted to keep a private form of communication private. He is an intellectual coward in this area. You are right to ignore him as I have decided to from this day forth. Thank you again for your reasoned approach. My approach would probably land me in jail. Frothing all the way... Posted by: Craig Daliessio | 2010.06.10 at 12:34 PM Peter, Excellent responses to my queries, brother. I appreciate the substance of your positions and now better understand your perspective in this matter. That's exactly what I was after, and I appreciate the fact that you invested your valuable time to inform me. Brother, my prayers are still with you and, if we ever do get to have lunch together, I know a place that makes the best hot browns I've ever tasted. Love in Christ, Ed Goodman 1 Timothy 5:1 Posted by: Ed Goodman | 2010.06.10 at 12:53 PM Ed, we should all be as reasoned as you! Be blessed my friend... Posted by: Craig Daliessio | 2010.06.10 at 12:56 PM Craig, Your testimony is moving, and surely bears good witness to our miracle working Savior. Thank you. With that, I am... Peter Posted by: peter lumpkins | 2010.06.10 at 01:33 PM Ed, I do appreciate exchange with you. I do not think we've ever had a time when I did not sense an authenticity about you and the queries you bring.

« Women's Conference at Woodstock First Baptist Church | Main | An Open Invitation to James White: My Response by Peter Lumpkins » 2013.04.05 More verbal abuse and implications of "heresy" by Baptist Calvinists UPDATE: one of James White's supporters, Micah Burke, put up a post in response to my piece below. Entitled "Peter Lumpkins doesn't know who he's responding to," Burke suggests my critical commentary below is misdirected toward James White. Instead he claims my criticism presumably should have been directed toward Al Mohler since "Nearly 99% of the quote [the quote below I transcribed from White's broadband broadcast] is actually Al Mohler's own words" (italics and link original). What a rip-roaring revelation! I'd never thought of that! Of course, Burke (he apparently is a volunteer employee for White's ministry) completely ignored the two references to Pelagius that White employed in the context of speaking about Harwood which contains much of the substance driving my concern below, two references White could not have quoted from Mohler because Mohler didn't mention either Pelagius or Pelagianism in his piece. Hence, White went well beyond Mohler in theologically implicating Harwood by identifying him not with semi-Pelagianism but identifying Harwood with Pelagius himself. These are the kinds of vacuous defenses offered by James White advocates... ====================== I've already mentioned the verbal assaults some aggressive Southern Baptist Calvinists levelled toward the presenters and participants of the 2013 John 3:16 Conference (here and here). One may now add to their literary hubris the voice of Reformed Baptist, James White. On his latest "Radio Free Geneva" internet broadcast White especially deals with presenters Adam Harwood, Eric Hankins, Emir Caner, and Steve Gaines.1 Furthermore, he deals with my little book on Calvinism predictably suggesting I haven't the faintest clue what Calvinism is. I'll respond to some of White's specific criticisms later next week. For now, suffice it to say, to believe James White, it matters not whether one is an accomplished academic theologian-scholar like David Allen, Malcolm Yarnell, Adam Harwood, Emir Caner, or Paige Patterson on one hand or a pastoral theologian like Steve Gaines, Adrian Rogers, Jerry Vines, and, to a much lessor extinct, a bi-vocational pastor like me on the other; we all get sliced with the same dull blade by James White. For him, none of us understand Calvinism; none of us can get Calvinism right; we all have to make "straw" arguments because we are all incapable of refuting Calvinism. Hence, from my initial listening, White's critical commentary on my brief little book remains nothing more or less than substantially White's commentary on any man's work listed above. For that, I'm grateful to be placed in the same category with the men he criticizes. Moving on presently to the J316C, I'd like to quote some words from White's broadcast, words I think offers an accurate summation of how we might expect White to view the rest of the John 3:16 Conference platform. After reading from Baptist Press's summation of Adam Harwood's presentation, White rightly acknowledged Harwood's claim that some Southern Baptists (particularly Dr. Mohler and Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (SBTS)) disagreed with his interpretation of Scripture that though sinful human depravity includes the universal inheritance of Adamic sinful nature, it does not include the universal imputation of Adamic sinful guilt. White then says, "Well, I would hope so [that is, Mohler and SBTS would disagree with Harwood]. Umm, since Pelagious is supposed to have been dead and gone umm, and uh, so it, uh, would have been good, uh, if, uh that were the case that, uh, Southern disagreed with that. Harwood referenced a article Mohler wrote on his blog in 2012 titled "Southern Baptists and Salvation: It's Time to Talk" along with Mohler's claim that a 2012 document signed online by many non-Calvinist Southern Baptists, called "A Statement of the Traditional Southern Baptist Understanding of God's Plan of Salvation" which we have addressed before and, uh, demonstrated it was rather embarassing honestly for those who signed it...appeared to affirm semi-Pelagian understandings of sin, human nature and the human will –– understandings that virtually all Southern Baptists have denied endquote. As described in the Evangelical Dictionary of Theology, semi-Pelagianism quote affirmed that the unaided human will performed the initial act of faith endquote and quote the priority of the human will over the grace of God in the initial act of salvation endquote. "Harwood said unity within the SBC may depend, in part, on Mohler retracting his claim. So, so uh, if you're going to have...uh..if you're going to have unity within the, uh, Southern Baptist Convention, then we need to redefine history, yes, we know...we need to forget about what Pelagius said, we need to forget about what semi-pelagianism is, and synergism is, up, no no, if we're going to have unity, then we need to come up with new terms and, uh, with new ways of looking at things"2 (within approximately 10:00—14:30 min.). It's not to hard to deduce where many aggressive Calvinists gain their abusive vocabulary toward non-Calvinist Southern Baptists. Not only did James White twice slanderously implicate Adam Harwood in defending a Pelagian understanding of fallen human nature, White grossly attributed to Harwood the mindless notion that for unity to take place in the Southern Baptist Convention, Harwood requires on the one hand we forget about Pelagius, pelagianism, and semi-pelagianism among other things and "redefine history," while inventing new terms and new ways of doing things on the other. Who would even think such absurd conclusions could be rationally deduced from either Harwood's actual words in his presentation or Baptist Press's summary of it? I challenge anyone--including White himself--to defend his jejune, mindless characterization of Harwood's words on this site. The truth is, James White has offered the very same type of hack on Adam Harwood as he offered on Ronnie Rogers' book, a book review which I criticized at length. Nor does White possess the kind of track record which, shall we say, lends itself to fair and balanced treatment in his criticism toward others (here, and especially note here). Even so, while James White is not a Southern Baptist, he continues to have influence among many Southern Baptists.3 White remains cozy with Founders Ministries, the largest network of Calvinists in the SBC and also is scheduled to speak at Reformation Montana, an organization apparently headed by aggressive Baptist Calvinist, J.D. Hall. I wonder if Hall and Ken Fryer's abusive rhetoric may be inspired by their relationship with James White. It seems probable though not entirely certain. What seems certain, however, is the perception James White has created for himself that he appears incapable of offering fair, sober commentary toward those Southern Baptists who remain convictionally unpersuaded by his strong Calvinist views (indeed some scholars are convinced White holds Hyper-Calvinistic views). White's approach epitomizes the very kind of aggression, unfairness, and emotionally-driven rhetoric from some sectors of Southern Baptist Calvinism against which I've stood the last seven years. And, for the record, I hope God gives me yet another seven years to stand against the raw, hateful, and theologically slanderous seeds ("You're a heretic!") men like White continually sow amongst our Southern Baptist Convention. James White's "Radio Free Geneva" and critical remarks on The 2013 John 3:16 Conference, Greg Boyd, and What is Calvinism? by Peter Lumpkins (link courtesy of Alpha and Omega Ministries) 1between criticizing J316 and my booklet, White strangely criticizes Greg Boyd, a person whose views are mostly theologically repugnant to the majority of Southern Baptists 2White went on with more commentary on Adam Harwood's presentation (as summarized in BP) but nothing else was said pertaining to my present purposes 3Only recently did White remove from his website wording in his bio which made it sound as if he still taught adjunctly at Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary (GGBTS), wording which I questioned in private correspondence and he subsequently removed. We're assured by the present adminstration James White is not scheduled to teach and will not be scheduled to teach at GGBTS.

Diana, just join Lydia and me in the "monstrous regiment of women" Perhaps someone has made comments about you being "emotional" See when Calvinists go around questioning the salvation of Christians and calling Christians heretics they're called "passionate" or excused as "frustrated" but don't you dare be a nonCal and post something in frustration. And if you're a woman! Oh my Calvinist men go nuts wondering why the men in your life haven't taken away your computer! So welcome to the club! maybe the "doktor" (not a real doctor he just plays one on the radio) will mention you some time! Then you'll know you've hit the big time! Posted by: Mary | 2013.04.10 at 09:39 PM Mary, Did you read the SBC Today thread where all this started? If you read it you will see that David Rogers is the one who floated Setzer as a good ecumenical/ambassadorial example for SBC Pres. In fact, I was a bit shocked at David's original comment and thought it a bit pedantic for him. As if loyalty to the SBC means one automatically excludes what he describes as the Body of Christ. Well, there is a reason there are denominations and while I agree that part is sad-- chalk it up to problems in history and the need for them. For crying out loud, ours was started with the pall of slavery over it by Calvinists! Good thing we lost the war and changed. :o) I was out of the SBC for quite a while and came back for specific reasons (one,the lie of "elder led" leading to the horrors of groupthink I saw in the mega industrial complex by a handful of guys. I think Miss Mildred who labors in the trenches deserves a vote) only to see it full of Presbyterians who call themselves Baptists! What happened? Al Mohler happened. I thought David was poisoning the well so to speak and found it strange how intensely he pressed it. He rarely comments there. If Ed was his first thought as an example of an ecumenical SBC Pres, that tells me a lot about how bad it has gotten out there with the pop culture Christianity. First of all, Ed is an EMPLOYEE of an entity. Sheesh! What is it with these guys? Secondly, Ed spends so much time chasing the celebrity circuit I often wonder what his job really entails. Here is what I think MIGHT be the problem. SBCT is showing up with lots of hits. Who woulda thought it? A non Cal SBC blog with lots of hits? Not good. Seriously, does anyone remember a bunch of Methodists involved in our CR? IFB? Presbyterians? Did we have entity presidents doing lots of conferences and speaking gigs with other denominations forging alliances with them WITHIN the SBC entities? The endgame is obviously not ecumenicism as David dreams of as in the wider Body of Christ because there have been too many charges of heresy from the Reformed wing for that and the Reformed brand, itself, is exclusive. The endgame is power using what were the growing numbers for the Reformed brand and rallying the youngen's. I personally think now it is a maintain problem. I think the whole movement is imploding. More and more peeps don't like it when child molesters are coddled by pastors and their celebrity pastor leader friends not only ignore it but seek to make anyone who brings it up in sin for doing so. That reeks of oligarchy. You wanna hear something sort of funny? I heard two young YRR guys lamenting about Piper. Seems he let them down big time. They thought he would retire and then go off like Livingstone to some dark corner of the world. They were shocked he is going to be a jet setting 21st Century John Calvin global Apostle. Anyway,I thought his comment on that thread was totally out of left field but look where we are now. So maybe it wasn't and I did not realize the real point? Now someone wrote that he tweeted it so I am assuming that is true. I have not seen the tweet. But I find that strange, too. A sort of promotion of his comment at SBCT. Then Dave Miller writing upset about it. Hmmm. Look, if they want to be furious about something...how about Mahaney? But crickets. Posted by: Lydia | 2013.04.10 at 10:31 PM Peter and Mary, I agree with your assertion that Calvinist referring Christians as heretics is very insulting and need to be challenged. Non-Calvinist isn't a Doctrine. If you can give me a description who the Non-Calvinist are, let me know. But don't forget to include the Voo-Doo and Pegan Idol worshipers. Posted by: Mark | 2013.04.10 at 11:05 PM Lydia, I did read the thread at Today. What this whole kerfluffle demonstrates is that the Calvinists are not interested in talking about issues. They want to attack and look for ways to "margenalize" everybody who doesn't think like them. It's the Calvinist who are trying to force an identity on all SBCers. The context from where Norm's quote was taken goes back to David Rogers hateful comment "Loyalty to the SBC = Disloyalty to the Body of Christ" (disloyalty by the way is a synomym for treason) So what we can conclude from the fact that no one is outraged by Roger's comment is that Stetzer, Dave Miller et all agree that to be loyal to the SBC means you are a traitor to the Body of Christ. Now nowhere in the Rick whosit? original Op Ed at Today or in the comment stream has anyone suggested that everyone in the SBC has to look alike think alike. Nowhere at Today has anyone suggested that the SBC and her churches cannot be in friendly cooperation with other denominations when the opportunity provides itself. No one anywhere is talking about isolationism. But Calvinists being Calvinists and unable to deal with reality and facts, Calvinists being Calvinists and deciding that SBC Today must be destroyed because Calvinists can't control what's being said - why they won't even let Calvinists post their hate in the comments! Calvinists see an enemy they must destroy so they latch onto "ISOLATIONISM" thinking this new line of attack will help them destroy those who won't allow the Calvinists to dictate exactly what the SBC is going to be and do. what this shows is the Calvinists are starting to worry and so they are doubling down on the attacks. They must stifle dissent before the people in the pews start paying attention. Posted by: Mary | 2013.04.11 at 09:24 AM Mary - I am an old foe of Jimmy's. It won't be the first time he will have mentioned me. I take pride in being passionate about what I believe, and anyone who really knows me - know I can be quite blunt and to the point. Sometimes I do choose to show restraint - other times, not so much. I dropped out of the calvinist arguments months and months ago. It was consuming, and I have since left the SBC because of the calvinist influence therein. Good luck to everyone - really. I do not care if some sanctimonious pharisee declares me unregenerate - I know the Truth - as does my Savior; and sanctification is a process - even for us emotional women. On the note (as an afterthought) of what my husband would say - When I conveyed to him that I apparently caused some kind of ruckus on a blog, he replied - "...and this is new?". My husband knows me well - as do many of my friends. :) Thank you for the welcome. Posted by: Diana | 2013.04.11 at 10:29 AM Peter, First, I apologize for this being so long. I’m not a great writer so I’ll be copying portions of your comments and then commenting after. On the smiley face at the end of my comment, ‘Let the firing squad begin. :), I would have thought that the meaning was obvious. It had zero to do with “making this issue into some kind of laughing, light and humorous matter.” It had everything to do with anticipated responses to my comments. When you said “You have absolutely nothing to gain or lose in this issue because you belong to a Presbyterian fellowship which has no stake in an issue ripping the SBC apart” that is simply not true. As I have said before here and elsewhere, my org has SB partners in ministry. Some are more Reformed leaning and some are not. This issue is not simply a “fun "debating" issue” for me. “You respond by suggesting it was Mohler who first did so. No, Mohler did not. He didn't mention Pelagius or pelagianism but only semi-pelagianism. So connecting Mohler and Pelagius is incorrect.” Well Peter, we just disagree. If the letters that spell “pelagius” were used by Mohler (and they were) then it is very fine hair splitting to say Mohler didn’t connect Pelagius, only semi-pelagianism (named after Pelagius). In either case, no one called anyone a heretic. Parse Mohler’s words carefully. He didn’t call anyone a heretic. “Third, if White did not implicate Harwood being connected with Pelagius, then what do you suppose White meant when he twice mentioned Pelagius in association with Harwood?” Well I don’t know what else he may have meant. I do not think he meant to say that Harwood is a Pelagian. “Fourth, you claim "For sure Mohler didn't call anyone a Pelagian or a semi-Pelagian." [That] seems to me to be absurd. Well so be it Peter. It is not absurd to me. Words mean thigs as many are quick to say. Mohler in fact didn’t call anyone a heretic anymore than Norm didn’t call anyone a “traitor.” “If it does not necessarily imply the authors/supporters appear to hold to what Mohler theologically objects, then what does it necessarily imply, Les? Give me your theory.” My theory is that Mohler had some problems with the document. He said that some parts of it appear to be SP. I personally think he believed that more care should have been taken in the document formulation and that those who signed on should have done more due diligence. That is my theory. Obviously many disagreed with Mohler. Now that is my theory (since you asked). I’ll read any responses but I’ll debate my theory no more. “Fifth, you suggest White was "not out of line." So identifying another's theological position with a notorious heretic without offering indisputable proof is "not out of line"?” I disagree with the premise I read into this sentence that JW was identifying Harwood to Pelagius as stating or implying Harwood to be a Pelagian. “Brother you've got a far far different understanding of what belongs in the bounds of brotherly dialog than do I. [Perhaps.] “In fact, you have a far different understanding of what counts for brotherly dialog than you did a year or so ago. Here’s what you wrote about a statement Jerry Vines made: “As to the substance of the article, Dr. Vines' statement: "should the SBC move toward five-point Calvinism it will be a move away from, not toward, the gospel" is unnecessarily inflammatory.” “So, a statement Vines made which didn’t by any stretch necessarily imply heresy of any sort can be summarily judged by you as “unnecessarily inflammatory” while White can identify Harwood by name with a notoriously known and universally accepted heretic and you judge that as in no way “out of line”? Yeah, right, Les, right.” Well, I stand by my comment that the Vines statement was “unnecessarily inflammatory.” “But like I mentioned in the beginning, Les, that really is no sweat off your brow. You don’t have an ecclesial stake in this issue.” Already said above that I do have some stake in this matter. At the end of the day let me say this. I am not JW fan in any way. I have never (to my knowledge) listened to him or read him. Maybe a snippet here or there as someone linked to it. Can’t remember. And, I would not have used the wording he used. From what I know and have read, Harwood is not a P or a SP. But for JW, I cannot say he was out of line and ZI do not think he was calling Harwood a P or even a SP. I will read your forthcoming reply, but I see no need to continue on this. I doubt you and I will agree on it.

I had the honor of interviewing eight women who share their wisdom, experience, and insight about both eco-grief and the collective grief we are all experiencing one way or another because of the impacts of Covid-19. In a single podcast episode I was able to weave in these eight voices and provide listeners with an encounter with these thought leaders. The show is getting a lot of downloads, and many who have listened so far, say it provided an opportunity to better understand themselves and the rapidly changing world around them. Guests include: Dr. Natasha DeJarnett, Interim Associate Director Program & Partnership Development National Environmental Health Association Dr. Lise VanSusteren, an American psychiatrist in private practice in Washington, DC with a special interest in the psychological effects of climate change.

From scrolling through FB and Instagram, I see a whole lot of people are cooking and baking. I shocked my husband with an artisanal looking round loaf I pulled out of the oven. After more than 10 years together he had no idea I could bake bread. I guess I never stayed still long enough to get that domesticated. But that is what boredom will do. I recently wrote about the Blessing of Boredom; you may feel overly blessed with it at the moment. To help, I am sharing some things for you. You choose Seriously Silly or Seriously Sublime or both! FREE on-line screenings during #coronavirus isolation I am pleased to announce I am offering free streaming of my two films. Doin’ Time in the Homo Halfway House is my one-person, multi-character comedy about the trauma of conversion therapy. I lived for two years in the notorious Love in Action program. This is the same program that inspired the Boy Erased, the excellent memoir by Garrard Conley that was turned into a film. I do not have the writing chops that Conley possesses or the emotional strength to publish a memoir, but I do have comedy and characters. The film was shot and by Morgan Jon Fox, who produced the award winning documentary, This is What Love in Action Looks Like. See Homo No Mo for free. Click on the Buy $15.00 then type in the promo code: FREE Doin’ Time in the Homo No Mo Halfway House from Peterson Thomas Toscano on Vimeo. The other film I have released for free screening is Transfigurations–Gender Outlaws in the Bible. Similar to the performance lecture version which looks at gender non-conforming Bible characters, you experience a range of genders revealed in a variety of Bible characters. This rarely seen version though is a play without commentary and with a dramatic ending. Both versions were directed by Samuel Neff. Watch Transfigurations for free. Transfigurations – Gender Outlaws in the Bible from Peterson Thomas Toscano on Vimeo. If you prefer the lecture version, you can watch it on Amazon Prime. I also have a free study guide you can use with either version. Plenty of Podcasts If you are looking for a podcast to entertain or enlighten you (or both,) I have four different podcasts I produce. You can find them wherever you get podcasts. Here are the most recent episodes. Please feel free to share these resources on your social media and among your friends and followers.

Suddenly feeling confused and listless. Wanting to be with people and all alone at the same time. As the Coronavirus outbreak relentlessly spreads, and life as we know it is frozen in place, a wave of grief is crashing over so many of us. For some it is the mourning of a loved one or the grief that comes from being sick, isolated, and frightened. It may also be what grief expert, David Kessler, calls Anticipatory Grief: Anticipatory grief is that feeling we get about what the future holds when we’re uncertain. Usually it centers on death. We feel it when someone gets a dire diagnosis or when we have the normal thought that we’ll lose a parent someday. Anticipatory grief is also more broadly imagined futures. There is a storm coming. There’s something bad out there. With a virus, this kind of grief is so confusing for people. Our primitive mind knows something bad is happening, but you can’t see it. This breaks our sense of safety. We’re feeling that loss of safety. I don’t think we’ve collectively lost our sense of general safety like this. Individually or as smaller groups, people have felt this. But all together, this is new. We are grieving on a micro and a macro level. Kessler sat down for an interview with the Harvard Business Review and spoke with Senior Editor Scott Berinato about the stress many of us feel today. I learned about the article on Twitter through Jacob J. Erickson. My main research right now is on ecological grief—and so much of the literature transposes itself into the current moment very well. “That Discomfort You’re Feeling Is Grief” https://t.co/pOtS9aYK1Q — Jacob J. Erickson (@jacobjerickson) March 25, 2020 In addition to helping me identify the strong, complicated feelings I have right now, Kessler gives some practical steps about how to address these feelings. Anticipatory grief is the mind going to the future and imagining the worst. To calm yourself, you want to come into the present. This will be familiar advice to anyone who has meditated or practiced mindfulness but people are always surprised at how prosaic this can be. You can name five things in the room. There’s a computer, a chair, a picture of the dog, an old rug, and a coffee mug. It’s that simple. Breathe. Realize that in the present moment, nothing you’ve anticipated has happened. In this moment, you’re okay. You have food. You are not sick. Use your senses and think about what they feel. The desk is hard. The blanket is soft. I can feel the breath coming into my nose. This really will work to dampen some of that pain. You can also think about how to let go of what you can’t control. What your neighbor is doing is out of your control. What is in your control is staying six feet away from them and washing your hands. Focus on that. There is a lot of helpful information in the piece. I encourage you find quiet time to sit and slowly read That Discomfort You’re Feeling Is Grief. For me just doing that helped reduce some of the anxiety. Naming the feelings enabled me to approach them.

The community of multidisciplinary researchers at the Parker H. Petit Institute for Bioengineering and Bioscience has grown by three with the addition of new faculty members James Dahlman, Anant Paravastu, and Francisco Robles. Dahlman is a chemical and bioengineer who comes to the Georgia Institute of Technology after studying in vivo gene editing as a postdoctoral fellow at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT. Dahlman, assistant professor in the Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering, is interested in drug delivery, targeted in vivo gene editing, and using genomics to improve biomaterial design. He has already designed and synthesized nanoparticles that efficiently deliver RNAs to the lung and heart. These nanoparticles been used by a dozen labs across the U.S. to study cancer, atherosclerosis, inflammation, emphysema, and pulmonary hypertension, and are being evaluated for clinical trials. Paravastu, an associate professor who joined the faculty of Georgia Tech’s School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering in August 2015, specializes in the use of solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for structural characterization of self-assembled proteins, to better understand plaque formation, which is the pathological hallmark of diseases like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and type-II diabetes (amyloid diseases). Paravastu, whose Ph.D. is form the University of California-Berkeley, has won a National Science Foundation CAREER Award and also a $1.67 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to study a specific protein in the body believed to cause Alzheimer’s disease. Robles comes to Georgia Tech this summer, having served a post-doctoral fellowship in the Chemistry Department at Duke University. His research interest is novel microscopy methods that provide functional and molecular contrast to improve our understanding and gain new insight into various diseases in order to achieve earlier and better diagnoses. A new assistant professor in the Coulter Department, Robles’ research program specifically focuses on developing and applying label-free linear and nonlinear spectroscopic methods, along with advanced signal processing methods to gain access to novel forms of functional and molecular contrast for a variety of applications, including cancer detection, tumor margin assessment, hematology, and neuron functional imaging. Now with more than 180 faculty researchers, the Petit Institute is an internationally recognized hub of multidisciplinary research, where engineers and scientists are working on solving some of the world’s most challenging health issues. With 18 research centers and more than $24 million invested in state-of-the-art core facilities, the Petit Institute is translating scientific discoveries into game-changing solutions to solve real-world problems.

Just about a few months ago, I was randomly surfing online sex shops and stumbled upon U4ria.com.sg. A few of the items got my attention and so I went down to one of their shops at Peninsular Plaza. First thing on my mind was the ‘Comfortably Numb Deep Throat Spray’, the rest of the items were introduced by a friendly staff named Rosco, which was so helpful in a monetary sense that he checked for all the best price for every item I asked. I would definitely go back for products that is for more of the medical use, for both safety and reliability. Comfortably Numb Deep Throat Spray (Price available on their website) – This awesome solution comes in three flavours – cinnamon, chocolate mint, and spearmint. I had intended to get the chocolate mint since I know that it would be the most preferred taste for her. But it was out of stock that day, so cinnamon was my second choice. The spray worked well by numbing the gag reflexes that looked so agonizing and painful for girls going down on you. The desensitizing effect will take that choke away after a minute or so after spraying. That said, I’ve tried it myself by sticking my finger down my throat after it was applied. There was no choking to my expectations, but the mental barrier to get my finger out was there. It’s a must-buy for men who wants their girls to give them head with less inhibition. Adam&Eve Marathon Spray (Price available on their website) – Without saying too much, this bottle had improved my sex life tremendously. Getting MY pleasure out of sex had been easy, but giving HER pleasure was one of my weaker points. As a careful man, I have always used a condom every time we get on it, so this spray only made our sex better. Like a marathon, my timing improved with an justifiable drop in sensitivity. I am not talking about total numbness that you won’t notice if someone cut your penis off. Here, let me explain. I would usually give a spray or two at the head of my penis before we start, then use the condom I have prepared to rub the solution over the rest of my shaft. The condom rolled right over after I had covered enough skin with it. My foreplay would then continue for another two minutes, while waiting for the effect to kick in. A tap or two at my dick, will show me if it was properly numbed. The tip and the sensitive ring below my penis were well-numbed. But the rest of my shaft could still make out ‘pleasure’. As the deed was carried out, I still felt all the good things, with delayed ejaculation. More positions, less disappointment. Rosco did highlight to me though, that if you are to have sex without protection, do remember to give your manhood a rinse to remove the solution before penetration.. if not, she would have delayed orgasms too (which is bad!). Nuru Gel Normal (Price available on their website) – What more could I say? In times of need, without my girl around, this would be my partner. And take note, I didn’t even claim my silicon masturbation aid to be my partner, cause this liquid is the one that really made me feel sexy. After shower, while we are still wet, I poured a palm sized of Nuru over our bodies and naturally, the gel produced the sticky strains that was so slippery and fun. It made us both feel so sexy in the shower that I would impatiently slip my dick between her legs, beneath her pussy and just thrust to my heart’s content. The whole shower became much more than just getting cleaned. Apart of just being a slippery liquid, it is also certified to be clean enough to use as sex lubricant, massage gel, whatever you can imagine, but please do not try to eat it. Usually seen on Japanese Adult Videos (JAVs), this gel has really lived up to it’s reputation and definitely not hurt to get one. A waterproof sheet (like PVC or Latex) would bring the fun to the bedroom, but if you’re like me, without the budget, this bottle of Nuru Gel is not a ‘must-have‘. ← Phone Call → Sniff Sniff Leave a Reply Cancel reply Your email address will not be published.

Contact us The PHARMO Institute Van Deventerlaan 30-40 3528 AE Utrecht The Netherlands Founded in 1999, the PHARMO Institute is an independent scientific research organisation dedicated to the study of epidemiology, drug utilisation, drug safety, health outcomes, and utilisation of healthcare resources. Subscribe to our newsletter Documentation STIZON INSZO Vacancies Publications Terms & conditions Privacy policy Glossary Rich data Rich data In-depth, detailed patient-level data, also known as rich or deep data. PHARMO is specialised in the collection and analysis of complex and rich longitudinal patient-centric data for better understanding of real-world clinical practice and to provide insights for future decision-making and innovation. With our tailor-made and disease-specific cohorts, based on the cradle to grave principle and linkages with various healthcare databases, we give our clients a complete profile of a person’s medical history throughout their life and even starting from before birth: an overview of a patient’s journey. Market authorisation Market authorisation Market authorisation includes the approval to market a medicine. All medicines must be authorised before they can be made available to patients. There are two different routes via which medicines can be authorised in the EU, a centralised route and a national route. Under the centralised authorisation procedure, pharmaceutical companies submit their marketing authorisation application to the European Medicines Agency (EMA). The Committee for Medicinal products for Human use (CHMP) carries out a scientific assessment of the application and gives a recommendation on whether the medicine should be marketed. Once approved by the EMA, the marketing authorisation holder (MAH) is allowed to market the medicine and make it available throughout the EEA. When the national route is used for market authorisation, approval is only valid for that specific country. Each EU member state has its own national authorisation procedures. More information can be acquired via the national competent authorities. Risk management plan Risk management plan A risk management plan (RMP) is a detailed description of the activities and interventions designed to identify, characterise, prevent or minimise risks relating to medicines. Pharmaceutical companies are required to submit a RMP to the EMA when applying for a marketing authorisation. RMPs include information on the safety profile of a medicine, risk minimisation plans or prevention of risk, plans for more studies to gain knowledge about the safety and efficacy of the medicine, risk factors for developing adverse reactions and assessment of the effectiveness of risk minimisation measures. RMPs can also be requested by national authorities whenever there is a concern about the medicine. Studies using the PHARMO Database Network can provide information for different parts of a RMP, e.g. module SI – Epidemiology of the indication(s) and target population; module SV – Post-authorisation experience; or part V – Risk minimisation measures. Pragmatic trial Pragmatic trial Results from traditional randomised clinical trials (RCTs) are difficult to translate to real-world clinical practice. Pragmatic trials are used to bridge the gap between RCTs and clinical practice and measure the effects of an intervention in daily practice (i.e. effectiveness). Pragmatic trials are sometimes referred to as current practice trials. Pragmatic trials are concerned with whether the intervention works under real-world conditions and whether it works in terms that matter to the patient. The design of a pragmatic trial reflects the variations between patients that occur in clinical practice. PHARMO is currently developing its capabilities in the field of current practice trials. Patient journey Patient journey The patient journey describes all the sequential steps in providing a patient’s care. Patient journeys are created in our Database Network by combining all longitudinal data from one patient identified in multiple data sources. This way PHARMO is able to monitor the medical history of a patient, but also the healthcare used after a disease period. With this information, we create insight in potential risk factors for disease or co-morbidities, as well as long-term effects of disease or therapy. During the use of medication we are able to monitor the adherence and/or persistence to medication by following the patient over time. Please note that we only provide results on an aggregated level and will never disclose patient identifying information. Registry Registry Registries are collections of data on individuals usually focussed around a specific disease. Registries can provide healthcare professionals and researchers with information about people with a specific diagnosis, both on a patient level or at group level, and over time. These data will provide new insights in the disease of interest, patient characteristics, treatments and more. Registries are not sources or RWD because the data they hold are defined. However, registries can be used to enrich the PHARMO Database Network by linkage (e.g. cancer registry). Real world evidence Real world evidence Real world evidence (RWE) is generated from RWD. With the expert analytical skills of the research team at PHARMO RWD can be converted into RWE to create an unique insight a wide variety of outcomes, including patient journeys, treatment patterns and healthcare utilisation. Real world data Real world data Real-world data (RWD) are observations of effects based on what happens after a prescriptive (treatment) decision is made where the researcher does not or cannot control who gets what treatment and does not or cannot control the medical management of the patient beyond observing outcomes. The observations are made in real-life clinical practice. There is an increasing demand for RWD both in pre- and post-approval settings. Before launch, RWD can be used to efficiently identify patients for randomised clinical trials; or to evaluate unmet clinical needs, describe healthcare/resource utilisation in preparing for a health technology assessment in the reimbursement process. Post-approval RWD is used to describe the effectiveness and safety of a medicine in post-authorisation safety/effectiveness studies, which are performed either voluntary or upon request by the EMA. Furthermore, RWD can be used by pharmaceutical companies to monitor the uptake of their medicine and prescribing preferences. The PHARMO Database Network consists of RWD collected from multiple sources, creating an unique insight in the patient journey. Our data fit both your pre- and post-approval questions and will help guide your decision-making throughout the product life cycle. Predictive modeling Predictive modeling Predictive modeling is a process that uses large datasets and probability to forecast health outcomes. Each model is made up of a number of predictors, which are the variables that are likely to influence future results. The predictive value of these variables is assessed in relation to the outcome of interest. Subsequently, the relevant variables are incorporated in the final statistical model. PHARMO has developed models to predict severity of disease or to distinguish between sub-populations of patients for indications that have overlapping symptoms (e.g. in diabetes, COPD or cardiovascular disease). Other applications of predictive models include: defining at-risk populations who are likely to develop a specific health outcome identifying patients who will gain most from a specific therapy predict how the uptake of therapy will be Pharmacovigilance Pharmacovigilance Much information on the safety of a medicine is collected in a controlled clinical trial setting. However, little is known about the safety of a medicine in the less controlled, real-world setting post-authorisation. By continuing to collect information once a medicine is available and taking action in response, regulators can continue to protect the public from emerging safety issues throughout a medicine’s life cycle, thereby ensuring its safe and effective use. Pharmacovigilance is defined by the EMA as the science and activities relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse effects or any other medicine-related problem. The company that holds the marketing authorisation has legal obligations to continuously collect data, conduct pharmacovigilance and notify the authorities when there is a concern about the benefit-risk balance. Suspected adverse drug reactions which occur during development or post-authorisation, are reported and evaluated in EudraVigilance, a data processing network and management system. Subsequently the Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) provides recommendations on all aspects of pharmacovigilance and risk management. PHARMO routinely collects data on medicines in a real-world setting through our healthcare providers. These data can form an essential part of your pharmacovigilance activities. Non-interventional study Non-interventional study Non-interventional studies (NIS) are observational studies during which the investigator only observes, monitors and/or records treatment and/or outcomes, but does not actively interfere with the course of healthcare. Retrospective studies are by definition non-interventional as are databases in which the data collected is derived from routine clinical practice (e.g. the PHARMO Database Network). Additional collection of data and linkage of databases are also considered non-interventional, as long as the provided care is independent from inclusion in the study. Medical Research Involving Human Subjects Act Medical Research Involving Human Subjects Act Medical/scientific research in which participants are subject to procedures or are required to follow rules of behaviour fall under the scope of the Medical Research Involving Human Subjects Act (Wet medisch-wetenschappelijk onderzoek met mensen (WMO)). These types of studies must undergo a prior review by accredited Medical Research Ethics Committees or the Central Committee on Research Involving Human Subjects (CCMO). Retrospective database research, as usually performed at PHARMO, does not fall under the WMO. For this type of study it is important to comply with the Personal Data Protection Act. In order to comply with the Dutch privacy regulations, the separate foundation STIZON was established for the collection, linkage and anonymization of the data. PHARMO is only allowed to use the fully anonymised data for research. Immortal time bias Immortal time bias Retrospective studies in databases with real-world data are inherently related to different types of bias. Immortal time bias arises when the period between cohort entry and date of first exposure to a drug, during which death has not occurred, is either misclassified or simply excluded and not accounted for in the analysis. Immortal bias can generate an illusion of treatment effectiveness and often occurs when studies compare against ‘non-users’. Our in-house experts are familiar with the pitfalls of our data and will always correct for these flaws in the best possible way. Healthy user bias Healthy user bias Healthy user bias can occur in clinical trials when people who are cautious about there health are more likely to participate in the study. When a study is subject to healthy user bias, its results may not be applicable to the general (less healthy) population. At PHARMO we only use real-world data, which minimises the risk of healthy user bias and provides results that can be generalised to a broader population. Health technology assessment Health technology assessment Health technology assessment (HTA) is part of the market access process, which also includes pricing and reimbursement. The WHO defined HTA as a systematic evaluation of properties, effects and/or impacts of an intervention. It is a multidisciplinary process that can be used to inform policy and decision-making in healthcare. Healthcare funds are limited and HTA helps to determine the allocation of these funds. A HTA model consists of multiple domains, including health problem and current use of technology, safety and clinical effectiveness. Our data help create insight in these three domains in clinical practice. Health economics and outcomes research Health economics and outcomes research Health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) is a discipline that quantifies the economic and clinical consequences of interventions to inform decision-making on access to them. To provide stakeholders with a reliable view of the value, real-world data is essential. With the PHARMO Database Network stakeholders will be able to get rich data from multiple data sources, which will help determine the true value of the product. European Medicines Agency European Medicines Agency The EMA is the European Union body responsible for the protection and promotion of public and animal health, through the evaluation and supervision of medicines for human and veterinary use. The American counterpart of the EMA is the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The authorities may request post-authorisation studies to gain more insight in the benefit-risk balance. PHARMO is an experienced sparring partner with knowledge on how to develop, coordinate and execute observational studies as requested by the authorities. Electronic medical records Electronic medical records Electronic medical records (EMR) are routinely filled by healthcare providers. The data from the EMRs are collected by STIZON and anonymised for research purposes. The research with these data is done by PHARMO. Since the data are collected from real-world sources, they can provide a unique insight in the actual properties of your drug or disease of interest. Efficacy & Effectiveness Efficacy & Effectiveness While randomised controlled trials still are considered as the gold standard to determine the effect of an intervention, more and more attention is pointed at the question whether the effect is also present in an uncontrolled, real-world setting. For this reason, efficacy data are often complemented with effectiveness data. Efficacy tells you whether an intervention works under ideal circumstances, while effectiveness tells you whether an intervention works under real-world circumstances. The data on the efficacy are available in the pharmaceutical industry, but in order to answer the effectiveness question, additional real-world data is needed. PHARMO is a rich source of real-world data from multiple healthcare providers and, besides, experienced in post-authorisation effectiveness studies. Data mining Data mining Data mining is used to extract information from unstructured data such as free text in GP records. The coding of certain outcomes is not always accurate in electronic medical records (EMR). Using data mining enables us to identify more patients of interest and/or to obtain more information on specific outcomes of interest. Cox proportional hazard ratio Cox proportional hazard ratio Cox regression models aim to estimate the hazard ratio (i.e. ratio of incidence rates) to model the effect of covariates on the hazard rate. However, the baseline hazard ratio remains unspecified. Using this type of analyses, one can determine the relative risk on a specific outcome per variable (e.g. risk factor). Big data Big data Big data often is used to describe large electronic (health) databases. Here at PHARMO we have a lot of data, however, we would like to define our data as rich data. Due to the linkage of multiple databases (e.g. General Practitioner, In-patient Pharmacy, Clinical Laboratory) we can obtain in-depth information per patient with regard to multiple aspects of their healthcare use. However, the more databases linked, the smaller the study cohort will be. Algorithm Algorithm Algorithms are procedures consisting of a sequence of algebraic formulas and/or logical steps to calculate or determine a given task. PHARMO has developed several algorithms for the selection of patients and distinction between diseases. For example, in the Out-patient Pharmacy Database patients with asthma and/or COPD are selected based on drug dispensings. Indication of use is not included in the dispensing records. However, the distinction between the indication asthma or COPD is possible by using a validated algorithm developed by PHARMO. The algorithm is based on specific medication use, age, gender, duration of use, prescriber and number of prescriptions. Adaptive licensing Adaptive licensing Medicines adaptive pathways to patients (MAPPs) are part of the efforts from the EMA to improve timely access to new medicines for patients. Adaptive licensing is defined by the EMA as “a prospectively planned process, starting with the early authorisation of a medicine in a restricted patient population, followed by iterative phases of evidence gathering and adaptation of the marketing authorisation to expand access to medicine to broader patient populations”. The process consists of repeated phases of data gathering and regulatory evaluation resulting in few marketing authorisations submitted and approved throughout the drug development. The goal of this approach is to maximise the positive impact of new medicines on public health by balancing timely access with the need to provide adequate evolving information on benefits and risks. Real-world evidence may be used (in addition to clinical trial data) to build the evidence for adaptive licensing of a medicine.

Penis stretching entails utilizing devices and techniques to improve the dimension of the penis. Big-famed methods include the use of vacuum pumps and grip gadgets. Penis Extender Calculator Penis extenders or penile grip tools extend the penile cells as well as tissues in the penis to improve it. Some researches direct that these gadgets function. Still, the demand commitment as well as perseverance to generate measurable outcomes. A latest testimonial of existing penile extenders declare that they might trigger effective extending of penile cells, as well as show results that can just be attained by surgery. Quick Extender Pro– The BEST CHOICE LOWEST PRICE HERE Penis extenders are a preferred subject nowadays.

Phallosan Strong suit LOWEST PRICE HERE In recent decades, penis augmentation has actually acquired so much impulse and also rather than the pills, supplements, creams as well as workout, the one thing that has actually revealed recognizable results are; penis gadgets. As well as Phallosan specialty is just one of them. Phallosan strong suit is a penis enlargement gadget that uses grip to increase the size of the penis. This FDA accepted item was developed and also evaluated in Germany. The gadget works on a gradual pulling strategy that pushes the penile cells to tear and also them fix themselves. In the process of damage as well as entertainment, the cells break as well as reform leading to enlargement of your penis. This technique has actually been examined medically prior to it was launched in the penis enhancement market. Exactly how does it function? With Phallosan Specialty, you can raise the size securely and effectively. The gadget consists of a proactive cap which enwraps the penis within an impermeable sleeve that functions much like condom. A band is after that connected around the thighs or midsection which implements progressive yet continuous pressure to the penis. With time the shafts of the penis expand longer as well as bigger. Statistics show that men that used this device for 7 hrs a day for 6 months discovered 1 inch rise in their penis size. And the outcomes are perpetual. The very best part of using this gadget is that it has no negative effects if you follow the manufacturer’s guidelines effectively. Dimension Genetics LOWEST PRICE HERE Among the popular and effective penis extenders. It is made from plastic as well as metal. The base has plastic drive ring which is made to pass the penis through it. Unique poles are attached directly to the ring. The changing nuts are connected with expansion cables with spring mechanism. A loop or band is positioned on the poles and it is used to repair the position of penis in the augmentation gadget. As an optional equipment, it might consist of ribbons or additional cellular linings to ensure that the wearer can conveniently use it, likewise as an added set of expansion cords for even more precise size and size adjustment. How is it far better than others? Unlike the other grip devices, the rod extenders in Size Genes make a strong as well as stable grip. Despite following the basic principle of operation. This penis enlarger is extremely efficient, as the continuous grip is implemented on the cells of penis, enabling the excitement of cellular division and helping the tissues to grow. Customers of Size Genetics have actually verified the outstanding healing effects. They have actually additionally confirmed that it not only enhances the size and girth however additionally changes the curvature of your penis. Male that assume their penises are small are just overthinking. The typical penis dimension is 3 to 5 inches or optimal 13 centimeters and also the length is 13-18 centimeters when it is erected. If you believe your penis dimension is minimal than this you can use these advised penis extenders for best outcomes. You have to utilize them for at least 6 months and also 7 hrs a day to get maximum gains and better results in shorter time. One more penis extending workout that you can do is the German stretch. This is done by stretching your penis head up and also down utilizing only your two forefinger. See to it that you do this for about 10 seconds and afterwards repeat for one more ten secs. There are also penis stretching approaches that focus on penile enlargement with the use of penis pumps. Penis enhancement pumps function by sending blood into the penis head when it is erect. The blood rise in the penis head will eventually cause it to expand larger. While these penis pumps have been extensively used for years, even more specialists are now advising the use of natural augmentation techniques like the ones pointed out above. We see ads for penis augmentation almost everywhere, as well as most of us really feel attracted by the unverified guarantees declaring to raise the penis size. A myriad of pills, pumps, exercises, weights and also surgeries assert to enhance the size and length of your penis. Still, there’s little to no scientific support for these nonsurgical techniques to enhance the penis. And penis surgical treatment is never ever supported by any credible medical company for purely cosmetic factors. Several tablets and also approaches you see marketed are useless and often they can also damage your penis. These penis augmentation techniques may also function much better than the penis stretching gadgets that you may be presently utilizing. You might likewise be surprised at just how much larger you can obtain before you also start to use a dimension to your shorts! If you want to enhance your penile length and also girth without needing to undertake surgical treatment, then you should experiment with some of the enhancement methods stated over. They are confirmed to work for several men. Among the most typical penis enlargement approaches that males make use of includes the use of grip gadgets. Grip gadgets function by using continuous tension to the body organ. When this continuous stress is applied, the body reacts by producing the lubrication that is required for correct development. This lubrication assists the tissues in the penis grow as well as increase. Traction devices have been in usage for decades. There are also several males that swear by their effectiveness in boosting their penis dimension. There is one disadvantage with grip devices – they can be quite excruciating. You can either take some discomfort medications or you can check out various other augmentation approaches like the ones pointed out over. Some of the lotions and also ointments that you can buy from your neighborhood drug shop might also do the trick without you needing to place in way too much effort. Simply remember that if something seems like it may be too agonizing for you, then it possibly is. One prominent penis extending exercise that you can make use of by yourself is the telling. Jelqing is a really reliable method that functions by exercising the penis to compel it to expand in length and also thickness. Several males have tried and swear by this workout, which entails erectile cells being stretched to the point where it tears and the resulting tissue accumulation is utilized to assist tone the body organ. If you intend to experience much better lead to the room, ensure to stay with this simple penis augmentation exercise routine. A penis extension is a method of adding size to your penis that includes utilizing an extender (a.k.a. dick ring, extender brace, or traction device) held between your legs as well as your scrotum. It applies the principle of grip, which is used in stockings to extend or slim your midsection. What’s more, penis sleeves work by extending the tendons attaching your penis to your pubic bone. By stretching those tissues, you can force extra blood right into your penile chambers as well as raise your erections. Here’s how it works: The penis extension process begins with your penis sheath. A penis sleeve is just an item of cloth with a thin Velcro support and elastic on the top. Freely tie one end of the penis sleeve around your scrotum. That’s the location where your penis will be stretched – the a lot more snugly the penis sleeve gets around your scrotum, the longer and wider the “bend” ends up being. Keep your penis hooded during this moment; it’s finest to be partly covered while in traction. Next off, the penis expansion starts with girth. Your penis’s skin is a difficult tissue, with the ability of withstanding a lot of drawing as well as misshaping, specifically if you subject it to a lot of friction. Once your penis has actually been stretched tight, it’s time to move onto the girth. To do this, slip a good-sized round (concerning two times as big as your penis is naturally) into your penis. Take care not to obtain the sphere too big; if it gets too loose, it may cut off flow. You can use a penis extender to aid with raising girth: numerous extenders have unique deals with which permit you to slip them under garments for a quick boost of girth, or you can wear your day-to-day fighters. A good one need to have concerning 4 inches of girth to it, so await a little bit of a work-out prior to attempting this technique! Lots of penis size enthusiasts says Dr. David Dayton (a leading physician in the penis enhancement area) advises the use of a penis extender of as much as 6 inches in length. Next comes the penile sleeve, which is merely an item of cloth or comparable material that wraps around your entire penis, offering a buffer zone for girth and a limited wrap around the head to aid with add-on. Sleeves can be available in a variety of products as well as styles, including velvet, soft, as well as stretchy. My personal choice is the elastic variety; they offer a very comfortable fit and also are surprisingly comfy total. The cloth ones often tend to slide down throughout a number of weeks, creating an unclean looking manhood. If you’re looking for an extra irreversible choice, you can acquire penis sleeves. They are available in 2 basic styles: sticky (which is where the penis gets stayed with the sleeve) and nonstick. If you uncommitted concerning revealing your sleeve off, sticky versions are great, however if you’re trying to find an extra all-natural look, I suggest opting for the nons sticky ones. Due to the nature of the item, you can obtain used to using it almost everyday. Some people report that they can also go for hrs each time with no pain. Naturally, the selection is truly up to you, as well as what is more crucial to you: enhancing your sex-related endurance or feeling great concerning your member? Lastly is the penis enhancement surgical treatment path. This entails cutting into your penis and also pulling it out by the root, supposedly boosting the penis in length and also girth. Though several trustworthy physicians have actually executed these procedures, the total procedure is unbelievably risky as well as not really efficient. The main issue with the operation is that after it’s done, there is a time period where you have to get on pain reliever to avoid any kind of infections from taking place. For me, this was not a choice I agreed to take.
