What follows is a addition to The Gospel of John, my restoration of that original text, free from the later interpolations and excisions of the organized Christian religion, and translated afresh from the Greek. You will find ordering information here.
This excerpt discusses how not Jesus alone but Jesus with Mary Magdalene is in the image and likeness of Elohim, God.
The Gospel of John begins by saying that those who believe in the Word of God, as put into the man Jesus, "who received it and believed in his name", gain "the right to become children of God, … begotten (as such) not out of racial ancestries, nor out of a natural will, nor out of a man's desire, but out of God" (1:12-13). To be a child of God is therefore not a oneness of identity with God, on the part of Jesus or anyone, but a oneness of unity and commitment. This is the oneness Jesus speaks of in his culminating pastoral prayer before his execution: he and the father are one (17:22), but the goal is for all humanity also to be one with God (17:20-23). This is the very Jewish concept of covenant, and marriage is the central example given thereof in the Bible. God creates in Genesis 1 by separating complements: light from darkness, sky from earth, land from sea, male from female – but then God brings one of these pairs together again, husband and wife (Genesis 2:24), in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:27). So, Jesus here and in chapter 20 is one with his wife in unity and commitment, jointly with her a sacred being that reflects God's nature, and so we must be, and will be, if we heed his voice. Why this splitting apart of the nature of Elohim into male and female only to put them together again if it is not to teach us that the nature of God is love (I John 4:8)?
Indeed, Jesus is not alone in not just speaking the Word of God but delivering it also in his way of life, including his marital status: Jeremiah's unusual, frowned-upon bachelorhood to say thus God feels no longer "married" to the Israelites; Ezekiel's being forbidden to mourn his wife's death to say thus God will not mourn the fall of Jerusalem (Ezekiel 24); and of course Hosea's "ho", his prostitute wife, whom he wedded to say the Israelites were likewise whoring after other gods (Hosea 1).
In the most ancient strata from which emerged the Samaritan and Jewish religions, God was a single deity comprising male and female aspects. In Genesis 1:27, for instance, Elohim created male and female human beings in the image and likeness of Elohim. Rod Borghese writes: "The word Elohim is a plural formed from the feminine singular ALH (Eloh), by adding IM to the word." I add that the word Eloah appears to mean "Power". Borghese continues:
But inasmuch as IM is usually the termination of the masculine plural, and is here added to a feminine noun, it gives to the word Elohim the sense of a female potency united to a masculine idea, and thereby capable of producing an offspring. Now we hear much of the Father and the Son, but we hear nothing of the Mother in the ordinary religions of the day. But in the Kabbalah we find that the Ancient of Days conforms himself simultaneously into the Father and the Mother, and thus begets the Son. Now this Mother is Elohim.
John J. Parsons (www.hebrew4christians.com) makes a similar point about "El Shaddai", a common term for God in the Tanakh, which modern translators usually render as "the Almighty", following the lead of the scholars who created the Septuagint (an ancient Greek translation of the Tanakh), who believed that it was derived from shadad, which means "to vanquish" or "to destroy". However, Parsons points out that the blessing Jacob gives in Genesis 49:25 includes both masculine and feminine imagery, the latter being the "blessings of the breasts and of the womb" (בִּרְכת שָׁדַיִם וָרָחַם), a phrase that suggests "El Shaddai" may come from shadaim ("breasts"), as an indication of God's all-sufficiency and ability to nourish, to care for, all creation.
Thus, in the very first episode in Jesus's ministry, following his baptism by John, he encounters a woman at a spring in Samaria. There is much in this scene [discussed elsewhere in the book and in this blog] to suggest a romantic, erotic subtext. Even the water of the spring itself implies a sense of courtship.
The first premise is that water was in the Mediterranean cultures of this time largely associated with women, since it was used mainly for cleaning and cooking. Wine, symbolically associated with blood, the blood of life, the "blood" of one's ancestry (1:13), was associated with men, as being fiery in temperament and conducive of manly qualities such as courage and thought. According to several classical writers, including Plutarch, women were forbidden from drinking wine.
The second premise is that it was almost universal throughout the Mediterranean region, including the Levant, to drink water and wine mixed together. Water alone was considered too cooling to the spirit, and wine alone was too elevating of the passions (there are many stories from antiquity of men driven to madness and violence by drinking undiluted wine, which, so it was said, was only done by barbarians). Revelation 14:10 speaks of God's wrath in terms of undiluted wine, suggesting that the wrath was unmixed with any "cooling water" emotions, such as mercy or forgiveness. Proverbs 9:2, II Maccabees 15:39, and I Timothy 3:8 have references to wine and water mixed together for drinking. Justin Martyr, in chapter 45 of his first Apology, gives very early evidence of wine and water being mixed together sacramentally, as is still done today in the more "catholic" denominations of Christianity. Finally, the Gospel of Philip says in logion 106:
The chalice of prayer has in it wine and water. It is designated as the symbol of the blood, over which they make their thanksgiving. And it is filled with the Holy Spirit, and it belongs to the one who is perfect and whole/complete. Whenever we drink this, we shall receive into us the perfect person.
That is to say for the Valentinian school that composed this gospel, and was mainly devoted to this Gospel of John, the sacramental mixture of wine and water represents the blood (mixed with water; John 19:34) of Jesus, who is the "perfect person". Jesus is perfect, the text says, because he is whole/complete. Other passages in Philip (see pages 570-72) make it clear that this is because, united with Mary, he is androgynous, as was Adam before Eve was removed from him: he is male-and-female-as-one in the image and likeness (Genesis 1:27) of the male-and-female-as-one understanding of God, called Elohim in Hebrew.
Therefore, when Jesus asks this young, attractive, unmarried woman for water, he is at least subliminally suggesting she mix her feminine "water" with his masculine "wine": that they marry. Bear in mind that in every subsequent scene in this gospel in which Mary appears there is water and wine mixed: at the wedding, where Jesus makes the feminine water into masculine wine; even if not mentioned water and wine mixed was served at the supper in chapter 12 and at the Last Supper; at the crucifixion a sword thrust brings forth "blood and water" from Jesus's body; and at the resurrection, Jesus the wine and Mary the water are reborn and mixed together into "one flesh" (Genesis 2:24) that is the very image and likeness (Genesis 1:27) of the male-female-as-one understanding of God, called Elohim in Hebrew.
Certainly the author of the gospel intended this combination of eroticism and spiritual profundity in the story. For the modern reader, as a child of Western philosophy with its unbridgeable divide between the physical and the spiritual realms and the latent repressiveness of the Puritans, this will come across as very strange, even distasteful. But it was not to first-century Jews, whose Tanakh often conjoins eroticism and spiritual profundity, nowhere more so than in the exquisite Song of Songs. The gospel's writer (and Jesus through him) is telling us that love and marriage are also part of the Λογος, perhaps the most significant part, since the story of Jesus's ministry begins with love and marriage. The first chapter of Genesis describes the creation of the universe by אֱלֹהִים (Elohim) – a term for God that is plural (the -im is a Hebrew plural suffix), speaks of Godself with plural pronouns ("Let us make… in our own…"), but takes the singular form of the verb. The reason for this is simple: Elohim is male and female as one, which is why Elohim says השענ נתומדכ ונמלצב םדא ("Let us make humanity in our image and after our likeness"), and creates at once both male and female. And therefore, neither man nor woman alone perfectly images God, but rather man and woman together. What is more, only male and female together can imitate Elohim's ability to create life. This is why there are a number of comments in the Talmud to this effect: "Rabbi Eleazar said, 'Any man who has no wife is no proper man; for it is written, "Male and female created He them and called their name Adam"'" (Yebamoth 63). Hence, it was spiritually essential for Jesus to have a wife before beginning on his ministry.
Water and wine figure in the wedding at Cana, which in the restored original gospel immediately follows the scene at the Samaritan spring. At his own wedding to the woman at the spring Jesus turns water (feminine) into wine (masculine).
This act brings back to mind the final logion, 114, in the Gospel of Thomas, in which he says, in part, "Look, I will draw her into myself so I may make her male, so she may also be a living spirit resembling you males: for any woman who makes herself male will enter the Kingdom of Heaven." Here, by marrying her, Jesus is undoing the separation of Eve from (the originally androgynous) Adam, drawing Mary into himself. Since, as discussed above (page 291), water represents the feminine and wine the masculine, here the turning of feminine water into masculine wine symbolizes the union of Jesus and Mary into, in sacred terms, a single being that is like the original Adam in the image and likeness of Elohim, God understood as comprising both male and female as one.
At the resurrection, Jesus and Mary meet each other again-for-the-first-time. They are both naked and in a garden, with the obvious Edenic overtones.
In logion 36 of the Gospel of Thomas Jesus says, "Do not worry from dawn to dusk, or from dusk to dawn, about what you shall wear" (cf. Matthew 6:25-30). In the following logion the disciples ask Jesus, "When will you appear to us, and when will we see you?", and he replies, "When you can take off your clothes without feeling ashamed, and you take your clothes and throw them beneath your feet like little children and trample them; then you will see the Son of the Living One, and you will not be afraid." The (Greek) Gospel of the Egyptians has Jesus reply similarly, but adds a further thought: "When you have trampled on the garment of shame, and when the two become one, and the male with the female is neither male nor female." This is an eschatology in which the two genders become one, in which they become again the image and likeness of their Creator, Elohim, in which male and female are one.
This eschatology is found also in the Gospel of Thomas, particularly in the last logion in the book (114), which, unfortunately, is widely misunderstood. Here the complete logion:
Simon the Rock said this to them: "Let Mariam [Mary] go away from us, for women are not worthy of the [Æonian] life."
Jesus said this: "Look, I will draw her into myself so I may make her male, so she may also be a living spirit resembling you males: for any woman who makes herself male will enter the Kingdom of Heaven."
This verse is often put down as an example of first-century misogyny, as Jesus insisting that only males are welcome in the Æon, the Kingdom of Heaven. But Jesus is actually referring to the Hebrew myth of the creation of male and female. In the first creation story God creates by separating complementary opposites: day from night, above from below, land from sea; finally, God takes the androgynous human who was made male-and-female in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26) and separates it into two humans, the primordial couple. The second creation story likewise has womankind, in the person of Eve, drawn forth from the side of the prototypical androgynous human, Adam. Jesus thus is saying in the above logion that women, in order to enter into the Æon, the Kingdom of Heaven, must again become one with the male. Mary, as is made clear in this resurrection scene, is reborn to a new life along with her husband Jesus: they experience in this scene a hierogamy, a spiritual marriage, which renders them truly one, hence truly reflecting the image and likeness of Elohim, and fully capable of entering into the Æon.
F. F. Bruce (Jesus and Christian Origins Outside the New Testament) is the only scholar who to my knowledge interprets this logion correctly; he nicely summarizes Jesus's point thus: "Jesus's promise that she will become a man, so as to gain admittance to the kingdom of heaven, envisages the reintegration of the original order, when Adam was created male and female (Genesis 1.27). Adam was 'the man' as much before the removal of Eve from his side as after (Genesis 2.18-25). Therefore, when the primal unity is restored and death is abolished, man will still be man (albeit more perfectly so), but woman will no longer be woman; she will be reabsorbed into man."
This interpretation of logion 114 is supported by logion 22, in which Jesus says in part, "When you make the two one … when you make the male and the female a single one, such that the male is not male nor the female female … then you shall enter into [the Kingdom of Heaven]." Likewise he says in logion 75, "There are many standing at the door, but the united/whole/single ones (are) the ones who will go in to the bridal chamber."
We find the exact same theology in the Gospel of Philip, for instance in logion 76:
In the days (when) Eve was within Adam, death did not exist. (When) she was separated from him, death came into being. If again she goes into (him), and he takes her into himself, death shall not exist.
Paul seems to be quite aware of this uniting-of-the-sexes to be in the image and likeness of God at Galatians 3:28, though he puts on it his usual spin, saying that all human differences are eliminated if we become one with Jesus-as-God.
While the sexual element is not clearly prominent in the garden of Eden story, it certainly is in the Song of Songs, and very much so here as well. There had to be some sexual energy in their embrace (and no doubt a kiss, as the implications of the Odyssey suggest; see below) in the next verse; most emphatically, Jerome's "Noli me tangere" ("Do not touch me") is repugnant as a translation. This is Jesus's and Mary's hierogamy, their spiritual (re)marriage, and so it has to be erotic. The eroticism is further discussed below.
This sexual element is related to the previous point that their Edenic nakedness has spiritual meaning. In the act of coïtus the couple become physically one, and their conscious minds are set aside, allowing them a moment of sheer ecstasy, which is a harbinger of the joy of living in the Æon. (This wakan aspect to lovemaking is explored in detail in The Circle of Life.) Further, the act of coïtus can result in the creation of new life, in the form of a child. Thus, Elohim appears in Genesis as a Creator, as Father-Mother to all life, and the man and woman, when they are truly one (including physically, during coïtus), are in the image and likeness of Elohim also creating life. This points to the deep meanings of the "bridal chamber" theology found in several early gospels, especially Philip, and also Thomas. Logion 86, quoted on page 586, says that when male and female are mated together again in the bridal chamber they gain eternal life; death is overcome for them. It is beyond the scope of this work to speculate in detail on what physical manifestation, if anything, the "bridal chamber" references pointed to. Generally, the strand of spirituality leading from the early Gnostics (especially Valentinius and Marcus) to the Cathars eschewed the panoply of ritual, ceremony-as-sacrament, and preferred inner, spiritual transcendence. The suggestion in Philip is that a bride and groom entered into the "bridal chamber" privately.
Karen L. King dates the recently published "Gospel of Jesus's Wife" fragment to the fourth century, but says the text, in view of its nature, seems originally written in the first or second century. It is clearly to me closely related to the Gospel of Thomas, because it includes phrases similar to logia 101 and 114 in that "sayings gospel". A big difference, however, is that the Gospel of Jesus's Wife appears to weave these separate logia (sayings of Jesus) into a continuing narrative, that is, an extended discussion with the disciples. It may be somewhat later than Thomas, representing an editor's attempt to create such a continuing narrative by weaving together unrelated sayings in Thomas, or it may be earlier, and Thomas is simply a collection of sayings lifted from the Gospel of Jesus's Wife and perhaps other sources.
The latter gospel's most notable feature is that it has Jesus specifically call Mary his wife: ("Jesus said to them, "my wife/woman…"). The prefix ta serves as the possessive pronoun "my", and hime, just like נָשִׁים in Hebrew, ܐܢܬܬܐ in Aramaic, and γυνη in Greek, means "wife" or "woman" depending on context, and the context provided by the possessive prefix forces the meaning here to be "wife". Jesus adds that she is "worthy of it". King guesses the text said she was worthy of being a disciple; my guess is that it said she was worthy of being his wife, since the phrase ("she will be able to be my disciple") follows the reference to her as wife and her worthiness. Jesus also says, "As for me, I dwell/exist/live with her in order to […] an image […]". The verb implies cohabitation, spiritual union, and the vitality that vivifies life. I add that the phrase also implies eroticism, even sexuality, as part of their marital relationship. The last word is found in another line after a brief section of badly degraded manuscript, in my view too brief to fit in the ending of one sentence/thought and beginning of a new sentence/thought. I believe it is part of the previous phrase, and that this is Jesus saying that his union with Mary is intended to embody the very image and likeness of God, which male and female reflect (Genesis 1:27) as part of the Messianic image that he hoped to convey.
While – if it is eventually accepted as genuine – this is the first known early manuscript specifically to call Mary the wife of Jesus, it is far from unique in suggesting a very close relationship between them. The Magdalene is described as elevated to a special status as disciple in the Pistis Sophia and the Gospel of Mary (noncanonical texts probably composed in the second century). Most prominent among these texts is the Gospel of Philip, which calls Mary his κοινωνος (his companion, consort, coworker, the word also implying an erotic connection), and says the disciples were envious of how Jesus often kissed her often on the mouth. Kissing in this context does not, or does not merely, suggest romance but (as Philip says itself) it is an exchange of breaths (the breath representing the spirit) between spiritual companions in which spiritual truth is transferred – the πνευμα and hence the Λογος.

Uncovering the Beauty of Romania
Romania has been a place that I've been curious about for a while now, but beyond the castles and legends of Transylvania, I didn't really have a concrete image in my mind of what it had to offer. While through my current role in travel I specialize in the countries of Eastern Europe, for most of my clients their East ends in either Hungary, Poland or the Baltics. Further beyond the territorial borders of these countries you'll see that there are a few sizable and relatively unknown countries that extend beyond the Eastern comfort zone of many, and Romania is one of them.
Big and Bold Bucharest
The first logical starting point in any country's exploration is its capital. Preliminary research will tell you that during the first half of the 20th century, given its cultural and architectural riches, Bucharest was known as Paris of the East. It even has an Arc de Triomphe and a boulevard modelled after the Champs Elysees – intentionally constructed to be a little bit wider and a little bit longer in an attempt of one-upmanship. With a population of nearly 2 million and the 2nd largest administrative building in the world, Bucharest is a big city. As can be expected in any large European city, traffic is a bit of a nightmare. Once downtown, I saw the scale and magnitude I was expecting, with wide avenues and an interesting mix of historical and post-communist architecture. It had a cool buzz, in a somber, neglected kind of way. You might notice the graffiti on a building before you realize it has a beautiful, neo-classical façade.
Bucharest is situated in the southeast part of the country and unless you're heading to the Black Sea coast, as you set out on your travels you'll likely be heading north, towards cities and towns that you've likely never heard of before. The riches of the Romanian countryside are many, and can be broken done more or less into categories – each worth at least a day of exploration on their own.
Colossal Castles
The castles you come across in Transylvania are impressive and cover a wide range of history, from the fortress-like medieval structures of the 13th and 14th centuries, to the picturesque and luxurious masterpieces of the 19th century. In the first category, about a 3 hour drive from Bucharest you find Bran castle. While most well-known for its role in inspiring Bram Stoker's Dracula, its connection the infamous Vlad the Impaler is loose at best. Even still, perched atop a 200-foot high rock, it's an imposing site. This is the castle that most people come to see in Romania, and while impressive, it's far from being the most picturesque.
Much more scenic and in fact one of the most impressive castles I've ever seen is Corvin Castle. This beautifully preserved Gothic-style castle is complete with tall towers and turrets, bastions, inner courtyard and a draw bridge. The castle is somewhat isolated in where it lies, and is actually at about the halfway point between Bucharest and Budapest. By the time you've reached Corvin castle, you'll like have already been travelling though Transylvania for a few days, and hopefully you've still got a few more ahead.
For something a little more modern and a lot more luxurious, Peles castle served as the summer residence of the royal family until the middle of the 20th century. It's a masterpiece of German new-Renaissance architecture and is filled with European Art and Murano glass chandeliers. It was the first European castle entirely lit by electrical current, with the electricity coming from its own plant.
Fortified Churches
I never knew that this was a thing, but all over central Romania you'll find these medieval strongholds dotting the landscape. While the church was always an important place spiritually for people, there was a time where their importance was a lot more strategic. Many of these churches were built in the 12th and 13th centuries and they were used as defense against Ottoman invasions.
One of the largest and most impressive of these churches can be found in the village of Beirtan. Three tiers of defense walls that comprise much of the complex made the church impossible to conquer. Another fine example of this type of structure is the one in Saschiz. This magnitude of the building against its surroundings is awesome, and its Gothic architectural elements make it a beautiful site to take in. One of the oldest fortified churches in Transylvania can be found in Viscri, and what it lacks in aesthetic beauty it makes up for in prowess and its commanding hilltop location overlooking this tiny village.
Pre-Roman Importance
There's a little chunk of history that I had never even heard of before that was carved out by the Dacian civilization. They occupied a region which spanned from the present-day countries of Poland down to Serbia, and from Hungary to the Ukraine. The most important military, political and religious centre of the Dacians was a site called Sarmizegetusa Regia. It's situated in a natural park covered in forests, meadows and lakes, and to access the site you have to walk from the parking lot for about 15 minutes up a gradual path to its unassuming entrance. Due to its isolation, this is a little-explored region of the country. However given its former historic glory it's believed there's still a lot of the site that hasn't been discovered. It's apparently still being plundered by occasional treasure hunters, and while we were exploring the site we were being watched by the security of the site to ensure we didn't wander off the marked trails. It's an intriguing site with a just enough stones still in place to give you an idea of what used to be there. Compounded by the fact that we were there on a wet and foggy autumn afternoon, the place exuded a calming and grounding energy.
Traditional Villages
One thing you might notice as you're driving through the countryside is that the houses are all clustered in small villages, and that you don't see any single settlements up on a hill or down a lane. These villages were established centuries ago and this was done for defense reasons. As a result, much of the landscape surrounding the villages remains untouched, and the further you drive, the more you get the sense that you're getting further and further away from the modern world.
You come upon a village every 15 or 20 kilometres or so, and they typically consist of one street, lined with houses that face away from the street. While this might give somewhat of an unwelcoming feel to the village, the old ladies you see chatting on the side tell you otherwise. You're more likely to see a horse and buggy than you are a car, and in the afternoon you'll witness stray cows returning to the villages on their own after a day of grazing in the nearby fields. Not to mention the chickens, geese, dogs and donkeys that seem to outnumber the human population. The sense of community is very strong in this area, and you'll find a harmonious blend of Romanian, Hungarian and Roma living off the land. Most of these villages are completely non-descript, and only every third or fourth one seems to have some sort of store selling non-perishables. You'll be hard pressed to find a gas station or place to grab a coffee.
Fortress Ruins Make Great Places to Hike To
It seems like you're never on the road for more than half an hour before you see the foreboding ruins of a once-important fortress dominating a nearby hilltop. They serve as constant reminders that you're travelling through an area that was both an important thoroughfare and a battleground, spanning for several centuries. Since they're generally situated on the tops of hills, they make for great hiking destinations, offering rewarding views once you reach them.
On the way to Bran castle you'll pass by Rasnov fortress. Back in the 14th and 15th centuries, the local population would be holed up here for decades at a time, seeking shelter from invading Mongols and Turks. Not far from Sighisoara is Saschiz fortress, just up the hill from its impressive fortified church. A little further from civilization but well worth the effort it takes to get there, the ruins of Coltesti fortress make for a great, moderate hike, and the panoramic landscape around the ruins is spectacular.
Sustainable Tourism
This traditional and authentic way of life can still be witnessed all over Romania, and one of the best places to witness it first-hand is in Brasov County. The commune of Bunesti is comprised of 5 villages, each with its own fortified church. While I was in Bunesti village I had the privilege of meeting the owner of a guest house called Bike Check Inn and he gave me a tour of his recently completed facility. More on this here.
So Much More
In a week I covered a fair bit of ground in Transylvania and Bucharest but I still felt like there was a lot more to see. With each passing day I felt more in tune with my surroundings, and more unplugged from my daily life. I was just a small dot on the map of the 12th largest country in Europe and there were a lot of parts I didn't get to see. I'm already thinking about how to cover the gorges of the Danube, the western border of the country and the northern region of Maramures on my next visit.

So Jenna found a site and custom designed one for us. It looks so great!
She created a tandem picture for Abram and I.
Don't you love Abram's hair! She tried to give him a goatee, but it looked like he had a duck's beak. :)
She also created the kids:
Tobin is running, Sarai is dribbling the basketball, Carmen is heading the soccer ball and Rachel is punting the soccer ball.
The site Jenna used allowed you to customize hair, sports and size of person.
The decal came as one long picture. In reading the instructions we were concerned that our back wiper would hit and rub off the decal over time. After debating for a day we decided to cut the picture. This decision created great controversy. I agreed that I didn't want to split the family up, but I also wanted to make sure that it stayed on too. We came up with a humorous decision. The back window of the minivan has the kids on the left side (driver's side) and us on the right (passenger side). We decided that it would be funny to have the parents chasing down the kids!
Most people instantly recognize my car now. I do believe I am the only one in town with a tandem decal on my minivan! We love it!

Censored News Exclusive
Chi'Chil'Bilda'Goteel (Oak Flat) -- Apache Wendsler Nosie invited Europeans supporters to come to Oak Flat in mid-March and join forces in this global resistance that is not only protecting Oak Flat from Resolution Copper, but is becoming the catalyst to unify Native people against the aggression of corporate oppressors who seek to destroy their lands around the world.
Standing in the heart of the resistance camp here, Nosie sent a special invitation to supporters in Europe to gather here in mid-March 2016.
Nosie also sent a message of solidarity to Mauna Kea in Hawaii where Native people are resisting telescope construction on their sacred mountain. Nosie himself was arrested and jailed here in Arizona, by the University of Arizona, as he prayed on Mount Graham during the long years of resistance to protect Mount Graham from massive telescope construction.
A special invitation is being extended to Bolivia President Evo Morales to come to the global resistance gathering here in March of 2016.
Wendsler's granddaughter Naelyn Pike, 16, described the spiritual importance of sacred Oak Flat.

i started keeping a journal to my dad online. i was just feeling too much and going through so much, i needed an outlet. i had to get these feelings and emotions and thoughts out of my head. so i wrote (privately). but i never read them. the one time i tried to go back to read something i had written, i couldn't get through it. it just hurt too much. so i have never, until today, read what i've written. i'm in a different place now, of course- and i can actually read this without crying. and i can read it and totally respect and see what part of me it came from. and i remember feeling that way. and being so angry. and there's a part of me that is happy i'm not that angry anymore.
i've wanted to talk about this. i've wanted to touch on this subject because it haunts me daily. especially with the wedding coming up, and how certain things won't be happening that typically happen in weddings, because of my dad's actions. and i've never known where to start. or how. so i figured that i would share with you, something i've only shared with boyfriend up until now..... my first entry in the journal to my dad. and let me preface this by thanking you. for taking the time to read this.
dear dad,
god, i don't even want to call you that. i'm so disgusted by your actions, that i feel like you don't deserve the title. i'd call you something else, but i don't know what to address you by. i guess for now i'll continue calling you that name- just recognize that it holds no meaning to me. speaking of names, let's talk about the one you gave me- my last name. i've always been more than proud to be jenn
seriously, what the hell are you doing? could you be more selfish? could you be possibly more hurtful towards the people who have done nothing but love and stand by you all these years? i can't stand you for what you've done to mom. the way you have and continue to hurt her. it's horrible. to hear her bawling her eyes out day after day because of the choice you made- to hear the sound of her heart literally breaking... the pain you've caused. the pain you continue to cause her. it's heartbreaking to me to know how much 1 person's choices can completely alter someone's life. but she'll be fine without you. don't worry about that. she'll get to the point where she doesn't need or miss you anymore. probably right about the time you realize what a huge, fucking, idiotic, stupid ass mistake you've made. but you'll never come back. that would mean that you would have to admit you made a mistake, and you don't believe you've done that. it's one thing to feel as if this was something you "had" to do- whatever- but you can also admit that you were wrong. yes, you can admit that. or maybe you can't. maybe you've never been able to admit that you were wrong. i really wouldn't know- i wasn't the one married to you. as a child, you realize that you don't really "know" your parents... you only know what is presented to you in the way it's presented. it's no one's fault really- it's just the roles that each plays in life.
i have so much to say. i have so much stirring inside me. i feel like your actions have completely fucked with my head in ways that i won't even realize until i'm forced too. i'm sure i'll take this out on my boyfriend in some way. someone who doesn't deserve whatever potential shit i might throw at him because of YOU. not his actions, but yours. i only hope that he'll be strong enough and wise enough to see through it- to know where it comes from, even if i don't. but i'd be stupid to think that the 1 relationship that was closest to me for my whole entire life, wouldn't affect me in some way when it fell apart. especially based on the reasons. thank you dad, for whatever trust issues i will now have because of this.
you know, it's not like i ever worshipped the relationship that you and mom had. i never idolized the 2 of you and wanted to be like you guys or anything. i don't have anyone that i look up to in that way. there is no relationship that i long to mimick. yet still- at 30 years old- to have you do something like this.... is still traumatic. you, the one person who was supposed to be different, isn't. you've proved to me that men, no matter how old they are, are still typical. the one thing i hate more than anything... the one thing i can't stand.. TYPICAL guys.. the cheating, the oggling, the asshole behavior, the bullshit. and you're it. you're TYPICAL. and it's such a fucking waste. you disgust me. you disappoint me. you're supposed to be better than that!! you're supposed to be SMARTER than that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you're supposed to be DIFFERENT!!!!!!!!!!!!! but you're fucking not! you suck- just like most men do. and i hate you for it. i hate you for being like everyone else. i hate you for not being able to keep your fucking dick in your pants. i hate you for turning your back on the ENTIRE fucking family and walking away. and i hate you for however this is going to fuck me up because you couldn't stay faithful. i hate how i see you now. how i think of you with nothing but disgust and horrible thoughts. talk about being disappointed. being let down constantly by the men in my life. how wonderful that the main character now equals you.

Top 4 Sites to Host Your Music On and Grow Your Fan-base
As an artist, you should be reaping the rewards for your hard work, and regardless of what genre of music you make, you should not be giving your music away for FREE. That doesn't mean you have to necessarily sell it, but exchanging a download for an email can be just as valuable in the long run. So we've compiled a list of the best websites to host your music on – which allow you to do just that. Excluded from this list would be sites such as Itunes, Google play store, Tune Core, CD Baby, Soundcloud, HNHH, Datpiff and PureVolume. The reason being is that you either get NO fan contact information or you get one hell of a commission taken out of your sales. So unless you're up there in popularity with the likes of Adele, or Rihanna, and know your music will go viral on its own, you should undoubtedly be using one of these sites to distribute your music and strategically grow your fan-base.
Updated: July 24, 2017 – Bonus platform added for profitable musicians
1. NoiseTrade
"NoiseTrade is a service that helps artists connect to music fans. By way of our remarkable and embeddable widget, artists and fans can work together, exchanging music for a little information and giving fans ways to share music from artists they like."
Website: www.noisetrade.com
- Advertising on website
- Widgets
- Social & Email Sharing
- Upload up to 20 songs
- Name your price tips
- Gather fan information
Pros: What makes NoiseTrade so great is that there are NO, I repeat, N-O download limits which are common with most music hosting platforms of this caliber. In addition to that, instead of just giving your music away for free, your supporters have the option of tipping you. So if your music is worth anything to them you can expect maybe a little more than what you're used to. Not to mention it's free to use! They do take 20% of any tip you receive but that's nothing compared to what you get in return.
Cons: Unfortunately, NoiseTrade doesn't track the number of plays each track gets.
See It In Action: Click Here
Our Thoughts – NoiseTrade is AWESOME! You'll love it! Try it, and see for yourself. Although, we'll never use it because we're not in the business of getting tipped.
2. TopSpin
"Topspin is a direct-to-fan marketing and retail software platform. You used professional software such as ProTools, Logic, or Final Cut Pro to create your art. Topspin's software provides tools to help you increase awareness, build relationships with fans, and turn those fans into customers."
In the News: "Beats Music Acquires Music Marketing And Monetization Company Topspin Media"
Website: www.topspinmedia.com

- A self-serve ticketing platform and iPhone ticket scanner which has sold tickets to Eminem in Yankee Stadium, movie theaters, 6,000 Pixies tickets in London, and your house party
- Ability to sell a membership, then sell any other product to members only. Fans login to your site with their Facebook, Twitter, Google, MySpace, Yahoo!, AOL, or other account
- Ability to pay multiple rights holders, from promoters to labels, merchandise, and fulfillment partners, with net accounting to the artist
- Fan payment via credit card, PayPal, and international debit cards such as Switch and Solo, plus support for many foreign currencies including USD, GBP, EUR, JPY, CAD, and AUD
- Payment of sales tax, removing the sales tax burden from you
- Reporting to Soundscan in the US and The Official Charts Company (OCC) in the UK
- Compliance with lots of things artists shouldn't have to worry about such as COPPA, TrustE, EU Safe Harbor, etc
- A knowledge base and community forum for self-help, educational options with Berklee Online and in Topspin's offices, plus dedicated customer support when you really need a personal touch
- No ceiling! Topspin is a professional-grade software tool for any level of artist, from the amateur punk band I rocked in high school to former Beatles!
Pros: Topspin is TOP-NOTCH! Get an MTV Page which would allow you to possibly get your video or song on an MTV network show(like my friend Ashlee Munn did and complained about). Integrated ticket selling application. Ability to sell merchandise. Professional recording artists use it(so you know it's good). Profoundly low fees for bandwidth usage associated with offering free downloads. (15 cents a gigabyte)
Cons: Obviously nothing is free, but there is nothing wrong with frowning upon a company for charging us fees to use their service – $10.00 a month, 15% of merchandise sales, and standard Paypal credit card processing fees. Free account limits the number of fans and plays your profile can receive each month.
Our Thoughts: Did you read all those features? Topspin is a definitely a power-house in direct-2-fan music distribution, which is why a lot of the heavy-weights use it. Of course like most, there is limits to it being everything you could ever hope for as a band, which is why it's not at the top of our list. However the ability to sell tickets AND possibly get your music on an MTV show is pretty friggin' awesome.
3. BandCamp
"We're a publishing platform for bands, or, anthropomorphically/arthropodically-speaking, your fifth, fully geeked-out Beatle — the one who keeps your very own website humming and lets you get back to making great music and building your fan base."
Website: www.bandcamp.com
- Multiple file formats
- Name-your-price downloads
- Real-time Statistics
- Search Engine Optimization
- Viral distribution
- Mobile friendly
- Physical + Digital sales
- Sell within Facebook
- Fulfillment Partner integration
- Discount codes
- Bonus downloads
- Design customization
- Multiple currencies
- Soundscan reporting
- Pre-orders
- Metadata
- Build your mailing list
- Support
Pros: 200 download credits. Free basic account.
Cons: 15% Revenue sharing. Tacky design.
Our Thoughts: Well if you're reading this you probably know that everyone and their Momma' uses Bandcamp. It definitely serves it's purpose very well, but the interface isn't as snazzy as others on this list. It also doesn't offer as many of the features as others do. I think bands just use it because, like we said, everyone and their momma' uses it. Chances are it was probably the first of it's kind which gives it so much popularity.
4. StereoLoad
"Stereoload helps you increase your Twitter and Soundcloud followers by requiring your fans to follow you before they can download your music."
Website: www.stereoload.com
- SoundCloud Integration
- Unlimited Campaign Creation
Pros: Clean design. Social sharing. It's FREE. No download limit.
Cons: Only utilizes Twitter and Soundcloud.
See It In Action: Click Here
Our Thoughts: StereoLoad is a pretty new platform as far as we know. While it doesn't allow you to grow an email list, it does offer the ability to grow your social media followers which at the end of the day, is still better than giving your music away completely free. With it being a free service, there's really no downside to using it. The cool thing about it is that if you make really good music and know how to market it correctly, SteroLoad can help you gain a significant amount of new followers on Twitter and SoundCloud.
For More Aggressive Musicians
5. ToneDen
"Create awesome marketing campaigns that help you get more followers, shares, and likes while building a rich database of your audience at the same time."
Website: www.TenDen.io
- Facebook Advertising
- Contests
- Email & Messenger marketing
- Social Unlocks
- Landing page creator
Pros: Intuitive design, convenient customer support,
Cons: limited social & streaming platforms, marginally high monthly cost if you're not making an ROI.
See It In Action: Click Here
Our Thoughts: ToneDen is a true gem for artists who have the means to invest in their careers. It provides a simple to use platform for acquiring, engaging and activating new fans. The fact that it acts as not only an advertising platform but a "lead capture" platform as well is why we decided to include it in the article.
In conclusion, if you're serious about making a living doing what you love, you need to focus on growing your fan base, because in the future those numbers will need to convert to dollars.

History of Art (2250)
We are not developing a new A-level History of Art qualification due to government changes to A-levels.

Find out more about these changes and which qualifications we are planning to offer in the future. You can also contact the customer support team on the details shown below.
History of Art (Art of the Western World) establishes a framework for exploring aspects of western art and architecture. It enables students to achieve an appreciation of some significant themes from classical Greece to the end of the twentieth century and demonstrate the skills of investigation and interpretation within the context of History of Art.
This four-unit specification requires students to develop their ability to communicate their knowledge and understanding of art historical movements, practitioners and works, considering the way that these change and evolve within chronological and other frameworks. It also builds their understanding of the relationship between society and art; art historical terms, concepts and issues; methods of researching, investigating and analysing and use of evidence and how works are interpreted and evaluated.
There is no controlled assessment/coursework element to this course.
This specification assumes no previous knowledge of History of Art and is suitable for students who wish to develop their interest in and enjoyment of the study of History of Art.
The last January exams for AS and A2 were in January 2013.

Joining Us
Pupils can join the Pre-School after their third birthday. The decision as to which Reception Class a child moves up to from Pre-School is made by the school unless a specific request is made in writing before the Summer half-term break.
We embrace their individuality from their very first day and ensure their personalities are understood and allowed to shine.
Reception and Years 1, 2 and 3 are generally formed of two separate classes and the number of places is limited in order to maintain small sizes. Places are allocated in order of application. There is no specific entrance test, but we do like to meet parents and children before registration. Prospective parents are invited to visit the school with their child in order to see pupils at work and to appreciate our very special atmosphere. Prospective pupils are welcome to spend a day with us prior to entry.
There are three terms per academic year. One full term's written notice must be given of intention to withdraw a pupil from the school. Fees in lieu of notice will be charged should withdrawal be made without the required notice.

Article Title
Having concluded the conference, and now the compilation of its proceedings via the present volume, we may wonder—while listening to Anzaldúa's words in the epigraph— whether the conference did in fact chop Anzaldúa up into little fragments and tag each piece of her with a label? It is perhaps safe to say that we all did. However, having done so—a task which arises from an inescapably dialectical process of analyzing and synthesizing knowledge about any subject—we may now find it fruitful to use the present collection to try to re-member Anzaldúa and the rich fragments of knowledge, feeling, and sensation about her life and works all contributors gave to and took from the extraordinarily rich scholarly and transformative gathering.

Whether or not he projects as one of the top three picks of the 2017 NFL Draft is a primary consideration for Texas A&M defensive end Myles Garrett's decision of whether to apply for early draft eligibility. cheap hockey jerseys
That's what the Aggies junior, one of college football's elite pass rushers, said Wednesday, according to ESPN.
Of course, feedback that specific doesn't come from the NFL Draft Advisory Committee, which evaluates underclassmen and provides them with a draft grade to give them a general idea of where they might be chosen. The NFLDAC only provides three kinds of responses to underclassmen who apply for an evaluation: first-round pick, second-round pick, or a recommendation to return to college. However, college coaches routinely gather more specific draft feedback from their NFL sources that they pass on to their top underclassmen. wholesale jerseys
Garrett (6-foot-5, 262 pounds) suffered an ankle injury against Arkansas this year that limited his effectiveness for much of the season, causing him to miss three games and parts of others. He recorded a career-low 8.5 sacks, with 4.5 of those coming against Texas-San Antonio. Still, he is a prized talent who one NFC executive described as a future All-Pro. NFL.com analyst Lance Zierlein has compared Garrett to former Tennessee Titans and Philadelphia Eagles DE Jevon Kearse, who recorded 74 career NFL sacks from 1999-2009. wholesale jerseys
Garrett said he has a strong idea of what his draft decision will be, but won't make it final until after Texas A&M's appearance in the Texas Bowl against Kansas State on Dec. 28. College underclassmen have until a Jan. 16 deadline to apply for early draft eligibility.
If Garrett's comment sounds familiar, it should. Michigan State defensive lineman Malik McDowell expressed the same sentiment before the season began. wholesale football jerseys

Bhubaneswar: Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Friday called upon filmmakers to come forward to work on documentaries and biopics on the literary souls.
Inaugurating the 12th International Film Festival on Art and Artist here, the Chief Minister also said that the journey of Odia films started in 1936 with the production of Sita Bibaha.

The three-day festival, organised by the city-based Jatin Das Centre of Art (JDCA), will continue till January 14.
"Imaging the art and artists is one of the significant endeavours to preserve, document, evaluate, renew and improve these art forms in order to save them for the prosperity as a source of inspiration. The continued efforts of JDCA in this direction are praiseworthy," Patnaik said.
The Film festival will showcase short, long, narrative, documentary, animation, and film essays along with panel discussions, lectures and workshops.
As many as 39 films of 11 countries in 15 foreign languages, 12 Odia films and 12 films in other Indian languages will be screened during the festival.
The JDCA will also present short film stories written by eminent writers Manoj Das and Gourahari Das at the auditorium. The films will be screened from 10 am to 8 pm till January 14.

By On Sep 16, 2018 Wedding Decorations
Bent on doing it all on your own? You will need a place to jump in. Lisa recommends two key launching points: "A budget and a guest list," she says. "The two are related, and cutting the guest list is the single best way to save money." Once those details are in place, you will have a better sense of the type of wedding that suits you best.
Depending on your venue, there are different alternatives for the wedding ceremony entrance area. Your entrance can be marked by church doors, a simple gate, or even two huge flower vases. Whatever kind of entrance it may be, make sure it wont look plain. Decorate your entrance with flowers, ribbons, garland, or any other elements you can think of.
This is actually optional, but we can tell you that a decorated aisle looks better than a plain one. Scattered flower petals and a red carpet are only a few of the many ways you can decorate your aisle. As you walk down that path, you will be happy that you decided not to leave it empty.

text: DigitalGerald Posner Plagiarized Miami HeraldBy Drew Grant|February 9, 2010 ShareBy Drew Grant|February 9, 2010 Share Gerald Posner, an investigative journalist and contributor to Tina Brown's The Daily Beast (not to mention a frequent guest on MSNBC's Hardball), has admitted to plagiarizing a juicy celebrity death story straight from the pages of The Miami Herald. Jack Shafer at Slate was the first one to notice the…well…lack of discrepancy. Here's Posner's article on Fontainebleau heir Ben Novak and his suspicious death for The Daily Beast on February 4th:There is little doubt the Novacks had a volatile relationship. In 2002, 11 years into their marriage, Narcy and two others tied Ben Jr. to a chair, threatened to kill him and took money from his safe, according to the police report filed at the time."If I can't have you, no one else will," she told him, according to a divorce petition Ben Jr. filed and then dropped.Narcy told police investigators at the time that the entire episode was part of a sex game. And she also showed them porno snapshots of women with artificial limbs having sex, claiming her husband had a fetish for them.And here is the Herald article, written by Julie Brown only two days before:The Novacks, who wed in 1991, had a tumultuous marriage. In 2002, Narcy Novack and two others tied Novack Jr. to a chair, threatened to kill him and removed money from his safe, according to the police report."If I can't have you, no one else will," she told him, according to a divorce petition he filed and later dropped.At the time, Narcy Novack told police the incident was part of a sex game.She also showed them pornographic pictures of women with artificial limbs, claiming her husband had a fetish for them.Not exactly the same, but close enough to be considerered aggregation, not reporting. Posner has been suspended from The Daily Beast and apologized, ( in what must have been a weird phone call to Shafer, Daily Beast editors read aloud the definition of plagiarism from the dictionary and agreed that's what happened here) and the article on the site now carries this note: "In an earlier version of this article, five sentences were inadvertently copied from a Miami Herald report without attribution. The Daily Beast has removed the sentences and regrets the error. Two additional such sentences have also been removed," read an editor's note attached to the Beast story."Read More: Gerald Posner Admits to Plagiarizing From the Miami Herald — Miami New Times, The Murder Mystery Rocking Miami — Daily Beast, Plagiarism at the Daily Beast — Slate Sharehttp://adweek.it/2kSoRrP copy Adweek Adweek

Today, my second daughter Ava turns 9. She is a sweet girl filled with a zest for life and lots of emotions. Last night, on the eve of her birthday she informed my wife that she didn't want to grow up. The conversation went like this:
Ava: Mom, I don't want to get older. I mean, I really don't want to get married.
Mom: Ava, you're turning 9 tomorrow.
Ava: I know, but I just don't want to get older and have to pay bills. I want to just stay with you and Dad.
Ella (oldest daughter): Ava, that's really not ok to just live with your parents when you are an adult with a job.
Mom: Girls, she's turning 9 tomorrow. Let's just enjoy these years. Ava probably won't live with us when she's grown-up.
Ava: But, I don't want to get married.
Of course, she doesn't ever have to get married and we'd be happy for her to live with us for as long as she needs to, but, she does have to grow up. If she chooses to get married one day, it had better be a godly man who acts like a grown up too. The apostle Paul says,
1 Corinthians 13:11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.
There are far too many young "men" who still act like children, shrugging their responsibilities, being passive and wasting their lives. My prayer is that none of my daughters will marry one of these men.
I pray for her to continue to grow in her relationship with Jesus. Last night, well after her bedtime, I heard her and her oldest sister talking in their room. When I opened the door, they were reading the Bible together. That brought joy to my heart.
I am watching them grow not only physically and emotionally, but they are doing what every believer in Jesus Christ is meant to do. They are growing spiritually.
1 Peter 2:2-3 Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, 3 now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.
In order to grow spiritually, we must be in God's Word. We must read God's Word, meditate on God's Word, memorize God's Word, live by God's Word and share God's Word. We also have to pray regularly.
Ephesians 3:16-19 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge– that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Paul is here praying for the believers at Ephesus, but he is praying that God will do a work to grow these believers. He asks God to grow them in strength of their inner being, in faith, to grasp His love and to be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. God is the one growing them up in the faith.
Growing up is a scary thing; with growth, comes the unknown. Growth requires us to face fears, overcome obstacles, climb to new heights, and encounter God in new ways. However, we are all meant to grow. We can't simply find a safe place and stay there forever. How is God growing you? What are you doing to grow up in Him today?
