If you pay attention to the news, you probably hear about product recalls all the time. Chances are likely that you've been a part of a recall, whether for a toy for your children, a part for your car, or another product you bought from a company. Sometimes companies simply don't know about dangerous defects in their products until those products are in the hands of consumers. Sometimes, you may think the recall is silly, since you haven't had any problems with the product yourself.
This assumption, though, shouldn't carry over in the medical world. Just as with other consumer products, medical products can be recalled by their manufacturers. Oftentimes, these products are recalled because they have already harmed several individuals. One instance of a product recall in the medical world is the hernia repair mesh recall of 2007.
Why It Was Recalled
This mesh, known as a Kugel mesh after its inventor, was made by a company called Davol. The company manufactured this mesh patch for a number of years. It is basically a piece of woven plastic that sits behind the abdominal wall to strengthen it and to prevent further hernias. The mesh has a recoil ring in it that makes it lie flat against the muscle when it is inserted into the body.
After several patients had serious problems because of this particular hernia mesh, it was recalled. The main issue is that the recoil ring was often breaking as it was being placed into the body. Doctors had no way of knowing that the ring was broken until sometimes months after surgery. At that point, the pieces of the broken ring along with its sharp edges may have already wrought havoc on the body.
Oftentimes, patients were experiencing problems related to the migration of the broken ring. Sometimes it would migrate to another area of the body without causing too many problems. Other times, though, the ring pieces would cause all sorts of problems on their way through the body. They would scratch and perforate organs as they moved through the body, leaving organs open to fistulas and major infections. In some cases, patients even died because of the hernia mesh complications they experienced due to these broken rings.
What You Can Do
If you are currently using one of the recalled hernia mesh patches or if you've been injured because of problems with this device, you may need to contact a lawyer. Oftentimes, individuals have been able to get their medical expenses, missed time at work, and pain and suffering compensated by the manufacturing company of the Kugel mesh.
There is evidence that the Kugel hernia mesh was faulty long before its manufacturer issued a recall in 2005. Since this is the case, many of the individual Kugel mesh lawsuits are providing patients with some recompense for the trouble they have faced because of their hernia mesh complications. If you think you fit into this number, consult with a qualified lawyer today.

Because every millimetre counts, Schmidt has developed 3D bespoke solutions that optimise the use of your space, offering even more room for storage. We offer units with the maximum height, width and depth for the space in your kitchen.
Just because your space is limited, it doesn't mean you are short of storage. Thanks to the slightly increased height of our base unit, you can have an extra drawer for more storage space. The height of the worktop gives a more comfortable and ergonomic surface for your culinary concoctions.
A revolution in the world of kitchens. Thanks to the extra centimetres and increased depth of our drawers, you have 26 % more storage space*. Discover the secrets of Schmidt's bespoke solutions.
*Example of a unit comprising a pull-out pan drawer and three drawers.
*Up to three bespoke units per kitchen at no extra cost, to be chosen from a collection of bespoke units (excluding the Sign and Twin finishes), from the Lagune, Glamour, Crystal, Take and framed wooden (not including Major) and MDF ranges.
Feel free to ask for advice from the designers in your local showroom.
They can suggest units that are optimised in every dimension.
By focusing on your needs, Schmidt has developed "Evolution 130", the new-generation kitchen – a smarter kitchen 2.0 with an extra
drawer in response to the needs of today's consumers: Ergonomics, Functionality and Design.
6 cm more = one drawer more at no extra cost
For more storage space: 33 % more storage area and up to 66 % more storage space with the internal drawer option
available for all our pull-out pan drawers.
6 cm more = fewer backaches
Forget your backaches and enjoy preparing your meals at a height that allows you to stand up straight.
6 cm more = more balance
Evolution 130 is all about base and wall units in balanced proportions and with symmetrical lines and volumes.
Exclusive to Schmidt. Shift up a gear with a collection of units built specially to your
dimensions, so they fit snugly into your available space and offer optimal storage.
The width of our collection of pull-out drawer base units and wall units can be adapted to make optimal use of your space.
Our beautiful Opti'Line cabinets stretch all the way from the floor to the ceiling and are available in any width required. Say goodbye to dusty cupboard tops and stow away anything you want in the new storage space. A real bonus at no extra cost... to make optimal use of every millimetre of space!
26 % more storage space. This is what you gain with the extra depth of our units, which have raised the standard, without any change to the exterior appearance.
Magic? No. Logic. By using the service spaces that are found behind every unit, Schmidt gains precious centimetres. While they are very useful for leaving enough room for pipes etc, these spaces are wasted when they are left empty. And this is often the case.
When surface space is limited, storage space can be optimised by choosing extra-deep units. With the 70 cm deep base units in the Jumbo collection, Schmidt offers the largest volumes available on the market. 12 cm larger than the standard, with plenty of room to store everything and a significantly larger worktop. You will be impressed when you see them in your Schmidt showroom. And we've increased the depth of Jumbo's wall units from 35 cm to 47 cm. The deepest on the market. Ideal for small kitchens, where you need to store large plates in high wall units.

As the hangovers kick in this morning though, the latest casualties of capitalism will be getting their heads round the fact that there is no money in the kitty to pay them the current month's wages. According to reports, the bank swept all its cash back to the US every night, before doling out whatever the international subsidiaries needed back first thing. Someone neglected to do this before Monday morning's bust, meaning the administrators have nothing with which to meet $75m in salaries due this week.

Ben Drury x Nike "Silent Listener" Air Max 90 Current
London-based artist Ben Drury continues his partnership with Nike, this time developing another
London-based artist Ben Drury continues his partnership with Nike, this time developing another shoe with his name attached to it. Dubbed the "Silent Listener", Drury's latest design finds inspiration from the City of London, featuring an overall scheme implementing dark color tones, juxtaposed beautifully by the use of a vibrant blue. The "Silent Listener" Air Max 90 Current is slated to drop today, exclusively via Nike Sportswear 1948 in London. Only 125 pairs were produced for this design.
"The partnership came about to celebrate a long term three way collaboration between myself, Dizzee and Nike Sportswear, kind of joining the dots. However, as it developed, Dizzee's shoe, which I co-created, became more about his album (Tongue n' Cheek), which was totally where he was at that time. I channeled that in the same way I work with him when I design his sleeves. His Air Max 90 became the "Tongue n' Cheek", mine became the "Silent Listener". It was designed as a counterpoint to Dizzee's Air Max 90. Walk with me. Traversing the city. I walk in London like I walk on Dartmoor. Using waypoints, landmarks, and local knowledge. The city as a landscape. Distances shrink with the right footwear."

Research In Motion got slapped with a patent lawsuit by NXP Semiconductors, Reuters reported today.
The lawsuit deals with patents that relate to design, data transmission, and other features found on RIM's BlackBerry smartphones and PlayBook tablet, Reuters said.
A RIM representative declined to comment to CNET.
It's just the latest problem for RIM, which last week reported another set of disappointing quarterly results as its BlackBerry continues to cede market share to its competitors. RIM shook up the company's management team and opened the door to explore options, including partnerships, licensing deals, and even a sale, as it looks to regain its footing in the mobile device business.
RIM's legal problem isn't unique. Nearly every major mobile device player is involved with one suit or another, including tangles between Apple and Samsung and another one involving Google and Oracle.
The company also previously settled its own patent suit with NTP, paying more than $600 million to cover patents that were related to its messaging technology.
Updated at 11:48 a.m. PT: to include a response from RIM.

UF health officials will be administering flu shots on weekdays.
Finding a flu shot on campus is easy. University of Florida students, faculty and staff can walk into the Students Health Care Center. Or, they can do what many other Americans have been doing � searching online at www.findaflushot.com for a time and location convenient for them.
UF health officials said they will be administering flu shots on weekdays from 8 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. and from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m. Additional times and locations on campus can be found at www.shcc.ufl.edu. The costs are $5 for students and $25 for faculty and staff.
Public health officials are urging people to get their flu shots as soon as possible so that they will have time to build up their antibody protection before colds and flu begin working their way through North Florida.
Students at UF are also being encouraged to be vaccinated against meningococcal meningitis, an infectious disease that campus health officials can strike quickly and is sometimes fatal. Meningococcal meningitis vaccinations are mandatory for new students at UF before they can register for classes. Students can receive the vaccine at the health center for $126.
In a news release, UF health officials said they are particularly concerned about the possibility of flu and Meningococcal meningitis outbreaks on campus because conditions there are often ideal for infectious diseases to spread. Students attend large, crowded classes, share living space and are often living hectic, stressful lives.

Hello and thank you for visiting thenuperspective.com, your new favorite source for discovering the power and beauty of a new outlook. I am Derrick and my site adopts an holistic approach to health and wellness through various sources such as the Bible, The Daniel Plan and my own experiences. I am a firm believer in the notion that how we think greatly influences our attitudes, our emotions, and ultimately our behaviors. Stephen Covey, in his book "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" states "Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny." Wow! Did you get that? Your destiny essentially stems from a collection of your thoughts over time. What you believe about yourself and the world around you will greatly influence who you become, even if what you believe isn't actually true. Read on for some very entertaining stories and illustrations of this fact.
Some areas are still under construction so please do check back regularly for updates. Be sure to click on the follow icon in order to be updated when I post new blogs.

If you're reading this blog post, we would venture to bet that you know the importance of teamwork and collaboration in the workplace. However, getting people excited about teamwork often requires nudges, inspiration, and motivation. For this reason, we have put together our favorite collaboration quotes to get your team motivated and excited to work together. Read on…
If you're a movie buff or watch Marvel movies this will totally make sense, if not stick with us because this is a brief but effective example: Why do you think Nick Fury brought together the Avengers? It was certainly not a team building exercise! It's because Nick knew if the planet faced bigger dangers, Iron Man alone could not handle everything himself. He knew that a team of superheroes will always be more effective than any superhero alone. Nick Fury understood the importance of teamwork and collaboration.
Just like the 'reel life', the real life is full of challenges and dangers! And in real life too, you need a team to face those challenges effectively.
Every day your company is fighting a different battle, trying to survive and end the day on a high note. However, the challenge becomes that much easier when you have people around you to share the load with. This is why collaboration and teamwork play a crucial role in the success of any business.
When brilliant minds, with big ambitions, work towards a common goal, amazing thing happen. Employees are able to compliment each other's strengths and weaknesses and eventually become unstoppable.
Employees agree since about 75% of employers rate teamwork and collaboration as "very important". However, 86% of employees and executives cite lack of collaboration or ineffective communication for workplace failures. Why is that you ask? Let's take a look…
Teamwork & Collaboration: Expectations vs Reality
So, you, the manager or the boss, put a bunch of people together, gave them a task, and are expecting exceptional results sitting in your corner office, right? Well, I've got news for you-you'll never see the result you expect. It is easy to form teams, assign tasks, and expect results. However, that is not how things work out most of the time. Teams need to be constantly motivated; they need to reminded of the common goal they are working towards, blend in and develop an emotional bond, help each other whenever needed, and get the job done, together.
The key term here is "motivation." A Gallup study found that disengaged employees cost companies around $500 billion in lost productivity each year. Yes, that's 500 with a "b"!! Talk about lack of productivity, eh?!
When employees are detached from one another and their work, it's a recipe for disaster. Deadlines are missed, productivity goes down, and teamwork and collaboration take a back seat.
One way to get your employees to work together, collaborate more and be excited to chase down those goals is to share some motivational quotes with them.

text: Long time HardOCP reader, Eric Crowley of Stockton, California, had a dangerous moment with his Samsung Note 8 this morning. His daughter has been making good grades at school so she was awarded with a new pair of earrings. Eric was taking a couple of pictures with his Samsung Note 8 so he could show his daughter how those looked on her. On snapping his third picture, he heard pop similar to what popping shipping bubble sheet sounds like. As you can see below, the glass cover over the Note 8's rear facing cameras "exploded" outward onto this daughter. The explosion was akin to an old fashioned flash bulb! Eric explained she had glass residue on her that was of a "dusty shiny particle" consistency from her cheek back to her ear. Thankfully none of the glass particles got into her eyes, but to be on the safe side due to the size of the tiny fragments he had her eyes irrigated just in case. He said she is fine and not injured, thankfully. Erik has been using his Note 8 for about 7 months, was at 98% charge, and previously undamaged. Image of the glass on the news page. Looking around the net, it does not seem to be terribly common, but some other instances of "self breaking glass" on the Note 8 are out there. Something to keep in mind before you go stuffing your camera in someone's face. Thanks for sharing Erik, and we are glad you daughter is OK. We are happy about her grades as well. And having a good dad supporting that achievement. Just don't try to blind her with your camera next time!

I know I promised that I (Evin) wouldn't make another super long post…but I did (sorry not sorry). But this time I am writing my first, of many, blog posts about food. The is my first attempt at my witty food blog, so it will get better!!! Or it will plummit and increasingly become worse. So sit back, grab a head of lettuce, bag of salt and vinegar chips, or your own snack of choice and settle in for my first novel about food.
I was standing in the hostel kitchen cooking my dehydrated pasta carbonara (because cheap and nomz) and just as I thought I was done writing this blog post I decided this post would never be done. This topic is way too large for me and constantly becoming more complex at the same time as it becomes less complex (what? Did I just type that… Yes I did). I was listening to some of my fellow hostel-mates talking about vegans and and all that vegan jazz. I found myself annoyed without a real reason. Maybe cause I was having separation anxiety from my vegan days?….ha. I sat in the bathroom for a second (I find the bathroom a sacred space) and reached this conclusion.
I love eating like a vegan and doing crossfit. I also love eating bread, cheese, donuts, cheese, Nutella, and absurd amounts of strange things. I like them both. And I want them both to be a part of my life. This past year I thought it was one or the other. But it's not, because neither one all the time is healthy. So I guess where I'm at or where I am trying to get, is my personal balance. Which I will have to figure out on my own. I have also had to come to terms that it's not going to happen all of the sudden or be super easy all the time.
Since traveling, this has been on my mind a lot because sometimes we have to buy what's cheaper and not always the most healthy option. Or I simply want to enjoy the experience of food and so I say fuck it, let's eat gelato every day in Hvar because damn, it's amazing. Hmmmm and then maybe eat a head of lettuce here and there.
I've been thinking about how to go about writing this for awhile. I have been thinking of clever ways of starting, instead of just starting. So here it is. Word vomit of my experience and struggle with being the always "slightly curvier" friend and my love hate relationship I have with food. Everyone who knows me only really knows the love side, the side that could almost out-eat any guy. And don't get me wrong, I'm proud when I do. I am wanting to experience all the food and not worry that my body may change as a result.
Some people know that I recently added meat back into my diet. I did this because while traveling, I wanted to be able to experience all that a place had to offer. And I am thrilled with that choice! Food is such a large part of culture, and I felt if I was constantly saying "is there meat in that" or asking for the meat dish without the meat (because I have done that) I would not only be that annoying American, but I would also be missing out on a key part of a culture.
This is my view towards a lot of things: try everything, and experience it all. From the ham and cheese paninis, from the small take out bakeries to the traditional black pudding (pigs blood) in the Scottish breakfast. I am happy that I am trying everything! So there is the positive side, but something many people don't see is the struggle I have experienced since puberty – being the curvier of the friends. But always wanting to "keep up" with all the junk food sleep overs and experiencing delicious food. After I started becoming increasingly self conscious as well as becoming interested in crossfit I decided to try something I had never committed to. Loosing weight. So last summer I went to one extreme which was good in some ways but bad in others. I learned I could control how I look but only if I became obsessive about the foods I was eating and the work outs I was doing. I ate the same thing for almost three months (delicious at times and bland at others), had dessert once every two weeks, did cross fit 4 days a week, ran for an hour two days a week, walked for an hour one day a week, and had one light rest day. Sound exhausting? It was. As happy as I was with my body transforming closer and closer to my , and other peoples "ideal," I also was loosing a relationship that I have had since I was young. The one with food! And some of the positivity towards my views about my body. And I was loosing some of the ones that are created and flourish when food is a part of them.
Hmmmm isn't this the opposite of what should happen? I became obsessive. That obsession then drove me to the other end of the spectrum. The "fuck it" attitude. I should eat want I want and not worry about what will happen to my body and then lead to the way society will view me.
Currently I find my self back and forth between the two as I travel abroad. Part of me is very confident in the person I am and stands by my love for enjoying all that life has to give, especially with all that comes from trying and indulging in food! I love food! Can you tell I enjoy to eat food? I am not ashamed of that! But this is where I tell who ever is reading, for the first time in a public setting about the negative side. There have been days that I said I just won't eat anything all day so that I can eat some thing wonderful at dinner with Izze and Amelia. Then for sure I will be eating less calories and with all the walking I won't gain any weight. Sure I could sustain this…. Of course not! For one, my love of food. And second, thinking "Evin, this is not mentally healthy." And yet I come to the same place as usual. What am I doing and why am I doing it. I wish I could end this with "I feel great about my relationship with food and how it affects the one with my body." But I can't because it changes every day.
This is NOT a cry for help. This is my way of trying to process while I am traveling abroad while also trying to enjoy and process all the amazing things I am experiencing here. I am taking life day by day, I have come to terms with the fact that I can feel something one moment and it can change the next. One thing I am certain of and that I do not question is this: I have a love for food, our relationship is a special one 😉 (no one will understand us), I love experiencing a culture through food, and creating relationships when sharing meals. And lastly I appreciate my body. Like with any relationships there are ups and downs, good days and bad days. Yes, I am comparing my relationship with food to those I share with humans. I know I am not the only woman who struggles with the fear of gaining weight while traveling or just in general! And this is a fear I want to tell myself is a silly one, but if it truly were so silly, I could dismiss it easily. But I cannot.
There will be days that I will eat meat, bread and cheese and feel absolutely wonderful about it. And there will be days that I eat nothing but vegetables all day. But as I think more and more and go further with my travels, I have also realized that I should be present here in my travels and that gaining some weight is inevitable! I would rather be trying street food and cultural dishes than worrying excessively about eating this or that and how it will make me look. Here are some tips that I have been incorporating into my life to try and find my balance:
1. Stop constantly looking in the mirror (easier said than done…classic. But the more you do it the easier it gets)
2. Not comparing my body to that of my travel companions and other women (be original Evin… But it's true. And, again, easier said than done. Trust me, I know. But catching myself while I do it and just saying "I don't need to do this" truly makes it a practice.
3. Smiling at myself in the mirror. Do it!
4. Doing squats when I have spare time, literally at random moments. Great squat times: while brushing your teeth, while waiting for water to boil, in the shower (carefully)… You get it. Also we try and do 50 squats a day! Fun group activity… Kinda.
5. Yoga!!! Stretching!!! And meditation!!! And this isn't to try and build up physical strength (well, part of it is) but I find myself building up my mental strength with each practice. Doing yoga for ten minutes with a quick meditation after leaves me feeling blissful.
5. Incorporating veggies and fruits when I can. Sometimes it's not buying a bunch of both, cause that expensive. But buying a bag of apples or chowing down on a head of lettuce, or your veggies and fruits of choice, is more cost effective and yummy.
6. Not completely restricting! Don't not eat all day just for that one meal at the end of the day!
7. Eat when I'm hungry, (unless of course there is gelato involved).
8. And the easiest of all is walking! We walk pretty much everywhere! It feels great to be able to get pretty much anywhere with my two feet! And it burns calories!
9. Talk to the parts of my body I feel least comfortable about. Yes just sit down and have a nice convo with my tummy.
10. Laugh!! Laugh so hard you almost pee! Laugh so hard it hurts. Relish in the moments with (insert your friendly humans here)
I hope that this is as helpful to others to read as it was for me to write it.
Much love and appreciation.

This Irish Redhead is a feisty little whiskey cocktail you can't wait to indulge in. It has a flavor palate that is fairly similar to a Whiskey Ginger, and you could even substitute the club soda for ginger ale for a spicier kick if you want.
This Whiskey cocktail comes highly recommended as the perfect sipping companion to some Irish music and good old times. Grab yourself a glass and enjoy this taste Irish Redhead, Sláinte!
Here's how to make Jameson's Irish Redhead!

ABC Extra – Filioque: Funny Word, Serious Debate
It's called the filioque. It is a Latin word meaning, "and the Son." As it turns out, this one little word actually split the Christian Church.
The year was 381. The Church was meeting together in an ecumenical council at Constantinople to finish a job they had begun some years earlier in 325 in Nicaea. At Nicaea, the Church had formulated a Creed to refute Arianism, which claimed that though Jesus was divine in some sense, He was not the one, true God. In response, the Council of Nicaea formulated the Nicene Creed, confessing Christ to be "God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father." In other words, the Council of Nicaea confessed Jesus to be the true God along with the Father!
But now in Constantinople, it was time to confess the same about the third person of the Godhead: the Holy Spirit. And so the Council confessed: "I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who proceeds from the Father, who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified."
Now, if you've ever said the Nicene Creed in any church that is not Eastern Orthodox, then you perhaps noticed that a phrase went missing: "I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son." Or, in Latin, filioque. But this word was not part of the original Creed as it was drafted as Constantinople. Instead, it was added later in 589 at the Third Council of Toledo. And when it was added, those in the Eastern Church and those in the Western Church began down a path of controversy and schism that remains to this day.
According to the Eastern Church, the filioque distorts Eastern Orthodox triadology by making the Spirit a subordinate member of the Trinity. Traditional triadology insists that any trait of the Godhead must be either common to all the Persons of the Trinity or unique to one of them. Thus, Fatherhood is unique to the Father, while begottenness is unique to the Son, and procession is unique to the Spirit. Thus, the Spirit cannot proceed from the Father and the Son, for that would mean that the Father and Son would share a trait not also shared by the Spirit.
The addition of the filioque so upset the East that the great Eastern Patriarch Photius I declared the filioque heresy and excommunicated the pope at this time, Pope Nicholas I. Indeed, this debate was one of the precipitating causes of the Great Schism of 1054, when the Eastern Church and the Western Church mutually excommunicated each other. For the first time in history, the Christian Church had split in two.
For the most part, the posturing and lofty rhetoric over the filioque has faded, yet the fissure between the East and the West remains. Eastern Christians still do not include "and the Son" in their recitation of the Nicene Creed.
Finally, one must ask, "What does Scripture say about the filioque?" Our reading in both worship and ABC this past weekend from John 21 recounted two post-resurrection appearances of Jesus – the first being on Easter evening to ten of His apostles minus the now late Judas and the absent Thomas with the second being a week later to all of the living apostles including Thomas. In His first appearance, Jesus recommissions His disciples to carry out the Office of the Keys, which I discussed at length in my ABC. Jesus explains the Office thusly: "If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven" (John 20:23). Such is a weighty responsibility – to proclaim forgiveness to the repentant and warn the unrepentant of impending Divine judgment! But Jesus does not leave the exercise of this Office ad hominem. Instead, right before He commissions His apostles to the Office of the Keys, He breathes on them and says, "Receive the Holy Spirit" (John 20:22). Jesus imparts the Holy Spirit to His disciples as they go about ministry in His name. The Spirit proceeds from the Son as well as the Father. The filioque is correct.
It is a shame that such an acerbic debate over the filioque had to split the Church, especially in light of Jesus' clarion call to unity (cf. John 17:11). And yet, the Church is called always to Holy Scripture, listening carefully to its voice and deriving – and in some cases correcting –doctrine according to its pages. The Church can do no less than this. Thus, the filioque was a debate worth debating and it is a word worth keeping. For it is a word which describes a promise and the power of our Savior: "I tell you the truth…Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you" (John 16:6). Jesus has sent us His Spirit! May we praise the Father for His precious gift to us ex Filius – from the Son.

ABC Extra – Christ's Hidden Presence
It was my first night at college. I was sitting in my dorm room with my roommate, the only other person on campus who I knew, when I heard a knock at my door. Outside stood another student, a sophomore, who asked my roommate and I, "Hey, you wanna come outside and play Capture the Flag?"
Capture the Flag. As best as I can tell, it's kind of like Hide-n-Go-Seek for grown-ups. Your team hides a flag while the other team seeks it. And along the way, the other team not only seeks your flag, they seek you. And they try to tag you out. And so, you not only try to hide your flag, you try to hide yourself.
That night, I almost managed to capture the flag. In fact, I made it all the way to the other team's flag and was about to snatch it up and win the game for my Capture the Flag comrades when I felt a tap on my shoulder. "Tag, you're out," the voice gleefully exclaimed. It was the same guy who, just moments earlier, was standing outside my dorm room inviting me to come and join in the fun. "What?" I asked in exasperation. "Where did you come from? I didn't see anybody anywhere." "I was hiding behind that bush the whole time," he responded. "And you didn't even know it."
"And you didn't even know it." This phrase has often come to my mind as and appropriate way to describe what Jesus' return will be like. In our text from this weekend, Paul describes the return of our Lord thusly:
According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. The Lord Himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. (1 Thessalonians 4:15-17)
Notably, when Paul speaks of "the coming of the Lord" in verse 16, the Greek word for "come" is parousia, meaning, "presence." In other words, it's not just that the Lord will arrive from some distant cloud to the earth on the Last Day, it's that the Lord will reveal that He's been present with us the whole time. And, a lot of times, we didn't even know it.
In Matthew 25, Jesus explains the hidden nature of His presence to His followers thusly:
"I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited Me in, I needed clothes and you clothed Me, I was sick and you looked after Me, I was in prison and you came to visit Me." Then the righteous will answer Him, "Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You something to drink? When did we see You a stranger and invite You in, or needing clothes and clothe You? When did we see You sick or in prison and go to visit You?" The King will reply, "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me." (Matthew 25:35-40)
Jesus was there the whole time as we were feeding the hungry, carrying water for the thirsty, extending hospitality to the lonely, clothing the naked, and visiting the infirmed…and we didn't even know it. But the promise is, on the Last Day, we will know it. Because we will see Jesus. As Paul explains it: "Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face" (1 Corinthians 13:12). With the Last Day, Jesus' hidden presence will be hidden no longer.
Often, this world looks anything but sacred, holy, and blessed. It looks sinful, depraved, and broken. And indeed it is. But that's not all it is. Because Jesus is here with us the whole time – even if we see Him only dimly. Jesus is here with us the whole time – even if we don't know it. And so, as we wait for our Lord's final revelation, may His presence give us comfort and hope.

Sermon Extra – The Heart of the Gospel
"But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe" (Romans 3:21-22).
More magnificent words have nary been written. Paul's words in these verses constitute the heart and soul of the gospel. Because Paul's words are so foundational to everything we believe, teach, and confess as Christians, I thought for this week's "Extra," I would simply take some time to briefly unpack some key phrases, specifically in verse 22.
From God…
This phrase describes the source of righteousness. A Christian's righteousness is not of his own making or doing. Rather, it is "from God." A Christian knows that, apart from God, "There is no one righteous, not even one" (Romans 3:10), "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). Thus, in order for someone to be declared "righteous," that righteousness must come from somewhere else, or, more accurately, from someone else. Paul declares that this "someone else" is God.
Through faith…
This phrase describes the application of righteousness, that is, how God's righteousness gets from God to us. Some people try to apply God's righteousness to themselves by ascending to God via nebulous mysticism or good works or deep knowledge. But Paul's answer of how God's righteousness gets applied to us involves no steep ascent to the Divine through various contortions of the soul, body, or mind. Rather, the way that God's righteousness gets applied to us is through faith. And for Paul, faith is simple trust – trust that God is indeed righteous and trust that God indeed wants to share His righteousness with us as a completely free gift, apart from any merit or worthiness on our parts.
In Christ…
This phrase describes the object of righteousness. The object of righteousness – the One to whom we look to see God's righteousness on display – is Jesus Christ. He is the epitome and the embodiment of God's righteousness. Indeed, He is God's righteousness come to earth. Thus, if we do not trust in Christ, we cannot receive God's righteousness. Much debate has swirled around this phrase as it appears in Greek: dia pisteos Iesou Christou. Grammatically, this phrase can be translated in one of two different ways. One the one hand, it can be translated as above: "through faith in Jesus Christ." This takes the phrase Iesou Christou as an objective genitive. In other words, Jesus Christ is the object of our faith. But this phrase can also be translated as a subjective genitive: "through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ." Here, Jesus becomes the subject of the faith. Although grammatically, the former is probably to be preferred, theologically, both are important. For we must have faith in Christ for God's righteousness to be applied to us. But God's righteousness cannot be applied to us through Christ unless Christ is righteous, that is, faithful (cf. Hebrews 3:6)! Thus, we have faith in the faithful Christ.
To all who believe…
This phrase describes the destination of righteousness. That is, God desires that His righteousness find its destination in every person. It is important to understand that God's righteousness is undiscriminating. He does not desire to give it to one person while desiring to withhold it from another. Thus, anyone can receive God's righteousness, no matter how wicked, debase, or depraved they might be. No one need remain outside the grasp of God's righteousness. This is why we share the gospel of God's righteousness.
This, then, is the gospel: that God gives to us His righteousness through faith because of the faithfulness of Jesus to anyone who believes that His righteousness is for them. This is the gospel that the Christian church has stewarded for some 2,000 years. And who knows? We may be stewarding it for some 2,000 more. By God's grace, may we steward it well. For it is the most precious treasure to humankind. For it is the message of our forgiveness, life, and salvation. And there can be no greater treasure than that.

ABC Extra – Deep Anxiety
It's called hematidrosis. Dr. Frederick Zugibe, the Chief Medical Examiner of Rockland County, New York, explains the disease: "Around the sweat glands, there are multiple blood vessels in a net-like form. Under the pressure of great stress the vessels constrict. Then as the anxiety passes the blood vessels dilate to the point of rupture. The blood goes into the sweat glands. As the sweat glands are producing a lot of sweat, it pushes the blood to the surface – coming out as droplets of blood mixed with sweat." What a gruesome picture Dr. Zugibe paints of someone so stressed and so anxious that he actually sweats blood!
The evangelist Luke recounts Jesus' final hours:
Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives, and His disciples followed Him. On reaching the place, He said to them, "Pray that you will not fall into temptation." He withdrew about a stone's throw beyond them, knelt down and prayed, "Father, if You are willing, take this cup from Me; yet not My will, but Yours be done." An angel from heaven appeared to Him and strengthened Him. And being in anguish, He prayed more earnestly, and His sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground. (Luke 22:39-44)
Jesus' final hours before His crucifixion were so anxiety inducing that He developed a case of hematidrosis. Indeed, when Luke relays that Jesus was "in anguish" in verse 44, the Greek word is agonia. I'll let you guess to what English word this is related. But needless to say, it's not related to a word for peace and serenity.
One of the things that never ceases to impress me about Jesus' life and ministry is how Jesus not only experiences all that we experience, but He experiences it in a deeper and fuller way that we experience it. We experience anxiety. Jesus experiences anxiety to such a level that He develops the extremely rare condition of hematidrosis. It is not surprising, then, that the preacher of Hebrews would say of Christ, "We do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have One who has been tempted in every way, just as we are – yet was without sin" (Hebrews 4:15). Being tempted in every way means that a mammoth amount of temptation was leveled at Jesus, greater temptation than any of us know, for who of us can say, "I have been tempted in every way?" But Jesus was. Jesus experienced it all – literally. Thus, it behooves us to take Jesus at His word when He says things like:
Do not worry, saying, "What shall we eat?" or "What shall we drink?" or "What shall we wear?" For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first His kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. (Matthew 6:31-34)
If Jesus warns us against anxiety, then perhaps we ought to listen. Because if there's one person who knows anxiety, it's Jesus. After all, He experienced tremendously – indeed, He experienced it infinitely – in the Garden.
So then, how are we to combat anxiety, for anxiety is something which we all experience? Jesus says that pagans try to combat anxiety by running. They run after food and drink and clothes, thinking that if they could just acquire the right things or the right knowledge or the right securities, then their anxieties would be alleviated. But such a run is futile. It only results in more anxiety. Instead, we are to seek. We are to seek the things of God, even as Jesus Himself seeks the will of God as He experiences anxiety in the Garden. Jesus prays, "Not My will, but Yours be done" (Luke 22:42). May we, like Jesus, seek God in our anxieties. For He alone can give us strength to confront them and walk through them.

An Atheist Confronts Death
I recently learned that Christopher Hitchens, noted atheist and author of God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything, has been stricken by cancer. In an article for Vanity Fair, Hitchens makes what I consider to be some astonishing statements. First, he is so bold as to personify death: "I have been taunting the Reaper into taking a free scythe in my direction and have now succumbed to something so predictable and banal that it bores even me." Death has a face in Hitchens' mind – and a grim face at that. Death is a Reaper. Actually, death is the Reaper with a capital "R." No longer is death merely a force of nature. It is a sinister character. I, hopefully not surprisingly, would agree. Death is sinister because death is sinful – the result of a fallen and broken creation. Of course, Hitchens continues by calling this character "predictable and banal," which I suppose it is, for we all die, but it doesn't make it any less grim.
Hitchens' second astonishing statement comes at the end of his article:
I am quietly resolved to resist bodily as best I can, even if only passively, and to seek the most advanced advice. My heart and blood pressure and many other registers are now strong again: indeed, it occurs to me that if I didn't have such a stout constitution I might have led a much healthier life thus far. Against me is the blind, emotionless alien, cheered on by some who have long wished me ill. But on the side of my continued life is a group of brilliant and selfless physicians plus an astonishing number of prayer groups.
This statement did more than astonished me, it blew me away. First, as far as I can tell, the "blind, emotionless alien" to which Hitchens refers is the cycle of life and death, standardized and ruled, according to many atheists, by evolutionary theory and natural selection. It is what another atheist luminary Richard Dawkins called, "the blind watchmaker." And yes, if true, this cycle is blind and emotionless. Indeed, it is more than emotionless, it is merciless. It cares not about our lives and our fears and our hopes and our dreams. But curiously, Hitchens continues by noting that this "blind, emotionless alien" is "cheered on by some who have wished me ill." How something "emotionless" can be moved by "cheers" of encouragement, I do not know. But I do know that it is morally base to cheer on the death of another. Theologically, death is a result of sin. To cheer on death, then, is to cheer on sin. Death may be inevitable and sometimes, as in cases of war or capital punishment, sanctioned and permitted according to the governing authorities and the concerns of justice, but it is not cheer-worthy. Blessedly, however, Hitchens continues by noting that on the side of his life "is a group of brilliant and selfless physicians plus an astonishing number of prayer groups." It almost sounds as if Hitchens is admitting that "selfless physicians," "selfless" being a moral designation foreign to committed evolutionary atheism, and "prayer groups" have some sort of power to cheat death. Is Hitchens admitting that prayer works? If so, how does he think it works? And why does he think it works?
I myself believe that prayer does work, but only because of the One to whom we pray. For the One to whom we pray has power over death. As the apostle Paul writes, "'Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?' The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Corinthians 15:55-57). Jesus conquers death and brings life. There's an empty grave to prove it. And it is in that spirit that I pray that Christopher Hitchens' grave stays empty for a good time longer in this present age – and on the Last Day. Christ has the power to make it so. I pray that Hitchens learns to trust that.
ABC Extra – Omnipresence and the Sacramental Union
Every time I teach on a text which sets forth the Lord's Supper, I am always amazed by the "theological heavy lifting" that needs to be done. The debates over the Supper have raged so hot for so long that I always find it necessary to address these debates, all the while, trying to proclaim the clear words of Christ. Such was the case in the Adult Bible Class that I taught this weekend on Mark 14:22-24: "While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to His disciples, saying, 'Take it; this is My body.' Then He took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, and they all drank from it. 'This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many,' He said to them." The crux of the debate over Jesus' words rests on His statements, "This is My body…This is My blood."
In Adult Bible Class, I outlined three main positions that have been taken concerning Jesus' words, "This is My body…This is My blood." The first is the position of Transubstantiation which contends that the bread and the wine turn into the literal, real body and blood of Jesus and, thus, the bread and the wine are no longer present in the Sacrament. The second is the position of Symbolism which asserts that the bread and the wine are only symbolic of Jesus' body and blood and Jesus' body and blood are not literally, really present. The third is the position of the Sacramental Union which explains that when Jesus declares, "This is My body…This is My blood," His body and blood becomes really, literally present along with the bread and the wine. The Lutheran position is that of the Sacramental Union.
While I spent a fair amount of time addressing the position of Transubstantiation in Adult Bible Class, I wanted to spend some time addressing the position of Symbolism in this blog. Interestingly, the main objection of those who hold to a Symbolic view of the Sacrament is that Christ is now seated at the right hand of the Father in heaven and so His body and blood cannot be on earth on church altars worldwide.
Lutheran theologians have traditionally responded to this objection by asserting a Christological tenet known as Genus Majestaticum, which states that since there are two natures in Christ – a human nature and a divine nature – the divine nature can affect the human nature in such a way that the human nature can do things which it would not otherwise be able to do. For example, a mere human could not walk on water, but because Jesus was both divine and human, He could. Or, a mere human could not rise from death, but Jesus, as both God and man, did! Luther used this understanding of the two natures in Christ to argue that even though Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father, His body and blood can still be on Christian altars because He, as God, is omnipresent, even if other humans are not, and indeed cannot be, omnipresent.
Luther's primary antagonist in this debate, the great Swiss reformer Ulrich Zwingli, responded to Luther's use of the Genus Majestaticum by saying that Christ's body would then be in every piece of bread and even every corner of nature. This, of course, is pantheism and is a pagan, not a Christian, conception of God. Thus, according to Zwingli, Christ's body and blood could not be with the bread and the wine. Luther's response to Zwingli's accusation of pantheism remains one of the finest defenses ever of the doctrine of the Sacramental Union in the Lord's Supper:
It is one thing if God is present, and another if He is present for you. He is there for you when He adds his Word and binds Himself, saying, "Here you are to find Me." Now when you have the Word, you can grasp and have Him with certainty and say, "Here I have Thee, according to Thy Word." Just as I say of the right hand of God: although this is everywhere, as we may not deny, still because it is also nowhere, as has been said, you can actually grasp it nowhere, unless for your benefit it binds itself to you and summons you to a definite place. This God's right hand does, however, when it enters into the humanity of Christ and dwells there. There you surely find it, otherwise you will run back and forth throughout all creation, groping here and groping there yet never finding, even though it is actually there; for it is not there for you. So too, since Christ's humanity is at the right hand of God, and also is in all and above all things according to the nature of the divine right hand, you will not eat or drink Him like the cabbage and soup on your table, unless He wills it. He also now exceeds any grasp, and you will not catch Him by groping about, even though He is in your bread, unless He binds himself to you and summons you to a particular table by His Word, and He Himself gives meaning to the bread for you, by His Word, bidding you to eat Him. This He does in the Supper, saying, "This is My body," as if to say, "At home you may eat bread also, where I am indeed sufficiently near at hand too; but…when you eat this, you eat My body, and nowhere else. Why? Because I wish to attach Myself here with My Word, in order that you may not have to buzz about, trying to seek Me in all the places where I am; this would be too much for you, and you would also be too puny to apprehend Me in these places without the help of my Word." (AE 37:68)
Luther does not deny that Christ's omnipresence allows Him to be everywhere at once, even, in my favorite line, in "the cabbage and soup on your table." But this matters not to Luther. What matters to Luther is not just that Christ is present, but that Christ is present "for you." For when Christ is present "for you," He is present with His promise of forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation. And He is present in such a way in Communion, even as He promises: "This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins" (Matthew 26:28). Christ has promised to be present with the bread and the wine for the forgiveness of our sins.
The point of all of the above "heavy theological lifting" is finally very simple: We can be comforted by Communion because Christ's body and blood are as close as the bread and the wine. And as I mentioned in Adult Bible Class, that closeness is precious. Because whereas our sins against God and our betrayals of God separate us from God, He promises to come close by means of His holy meal. And I would have Communion no other way. For when I receive Communion, this is what I desire – to actually commune with God. To have Him close. And I know He is. For He has promised it.

Because the duvet cover is for a fairly small blanket (59" x 65"), I was able to make it from one old bed sheet (yay!). The large piece is 60" x 88", the smaller pieces are 30.5" x 44" and the long piece that has the ruffles attached is about 3" wide (without the ruffles) and 88" long. The plan is to stitch the two smaller pieces together side by side to get a piece about 60" x 44". I would put this piece on top of the large one and then fold the top of the large piece down by 22", so that the final size is 60" x 66". Once you take away 1/2" of seam allowance from each side, it'll be just the right size for the blanket.
The only problem is, that I'll need a little bit of extra fabric so that I can make some nice hems where I'm attaching the snaps. I'm going to use the 3" wide piece and some long white bedsheet scraps (from another duvet cover I made) to reinforce the hems.
The first thing I did was stitch the two 30.5" x 44" pieces together, with a half inch seam allowance. Then I added a piece of the white fabric on the top.
I pressed the seam closed with the white fabric on top and then folded the white fabric in half and pressed again. Then I folded the whole thing down again and pressed again.
I "stitched in the ditch" to hold the fold down. Then, I checked how it would look with my whole duvet cover assembled and I found that this white part is a bit too wide so I folded it again and then stitched it down.
I used pins to mark the places where I wanted to put the snaps and used a zig zag stitch and a zipper foot to stitch the snaps on. The snaps come in strips, which can be sewn as-is, but these snaps are about an inch apart, which means that I'd use almost 60 snaps for the length of the opening. That's a bit much. So, I cut them apart and used 7 sets of snaps, about 8" apart.
I put the matching set of snaps an attached them to the long narrow strip of pink (that was attached to the ruffles), after I had reinforced it with white fabric. Then, I stitched this strip onto the large piece of fabric, which will form the back of the duvet cover and the flap that goes over the front.
Then, I assembled the duvet cover inside out, pinned the edges and stitched them.
I finished the edges with zig zag stitch.
I turned it right side out and put the little blanket inside and I was done! It's really a simple project -- basically a giant pouch with snaps. The part that takes the longest is the measuring and cutting and placing and stitching the snaps. The sewing part is really a breeze.
