Chapter 14
1; That which was the Word of YAHWEH to Jeremiah concerning the matter of droughts.
2; Judah mourns, and her gates droop. They put on mourning for the land, and the cry of Jerusalem has gone up.
3; And their nobles have sent their little ones to the waters. They came to the cisterns; they found no water. They returned with their vessels empty. They were ashamed and confounded and covered their head.
4; Because the ground was cracked, for there was no rain in the land; the plowmen were ashamed; they covered their head.
5; For even the doe calved in the field and forsook it because there was no grass.
6; And the wild donkeys stood in the high places; they snuffed up the wind like jackals; their eyes failed because there was no grass.
7; O YAHWEH, though our iniquities testify against us, act for Your name's sake; for our apostasies are many; we have sinned against You.
8; O Hope of Israel, its Savior in time of trouble, why should You be as a stranger in the land, and as a traveler who turns aside to lodge?
9; Why should You be as one who is stunned, as a mighty warrior who cannot save? Yet You, O YAHWEH, are in our midst, and Your name is called on us. Do not leave us.
10; So says YAHWEH to this people: So they have loved to wander; they have not restrained their feet; therefore, YAHWEH does not accept them. He will now recall their iniquity and punish their sins.
11; Then YAHWEH said to me, Do not pray for good for this people.
12; I will not listen to their cry when they fast; and when they offer burnt offering and food offering I will not accept them. But I will consume them by the sword, and by famine, and by the plague.
13; Then I said, Ah, O Adonai YAHWEH! Behold, the prophets are saying to them, You shall not see the sword, nor shall you have famine, but I will give you true peace in this place.
14; And YAHWEH said to me, The prophets prophesy lies in My name. I did not send them and I have not commanded them, nor did I speak to them. They prophesy to you a false vision, and a worthless divination, and the deceit of their heart.
15; So YAHWEH says this concerning the prophets who prophesy in My name, and I did not send them; yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land: By sword and famine those prophets shall be consumed.
16; And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword. And none will bury them, either them, their wives, or their sons, or their daughters. For I will pour evil on them.
17; And you shall speak this Word to them: Let my eyes run down with tears night and day, and do not let them cease. For the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great break, with a very grievous blow.
18; If I go out into the field, then I see those pierced with the sword. And if I enter into the city, then, behold, diseases of famine! Yes, both the prophet and the priest have gone around into a land that they do not know.
19; Have You completely rejected Judah? Or has Your soul hated Zion? Why have You stricken us and no healing is for us? We waited for peace, but nothing good came; and for a healing time, but, behold, terror!
20; We acknowledge our wickedness, O YAHWEH, the iniquity of our fathers; for we have sinned against You.
21; For Your name's sake, do not spurn us; do not dishonor the throne of Your glory. Remember, and do not break Your covenant with us.
22; Are there any among the vanities of the nations, who make rain fall? Or can the heavens give showers? Is it not You, O YAHWEH our Elohim? Then we will wait for You; for You do all these things.
Chapter 15
1; Then YAHWEH said to me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before Me, My soul could not be toward this people. Send them out from before My face; yea, let them go out.
2; And it will be, if they say to you, Where shall we go? Then you will tell them, So says
YAHWEH, Those who are for death, go to death; and those for the sword, to the sword; and those for the famine, to the famine; and those for the captivity, to the captivity.
3; And I will set over them four kinds, says YAHWEH: the sword to kill, and the dogs to drag off, and the birds of the heaven and the beast of the earth to devour and destroy.
4; And I will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah; for what he did in Jerusalem.
5; For who shall have pity on you, O Jerusalem? Or who shall weep over you? Or who shall turn aside to ask your welfare?
6; You have forsaken Me, says YAHWEH. You have gone backward, so I will stretch out My hand against you and destroy you; I am weary of repenting.
7; And I will sift them with a fork in the gates of the land; I will bereave; I will destroy My people, for they do not turn from their ways.
8; Their widows are more numerous about Me than the sand of the seas. I have brought for them a ravager at noonday against the mother of a young man; I caused anguish and terror to fall on her suddenly.
9; She who bore seven now languishes; she has breathed out her life; her sun has gone down while it was still day. She has been ashamed and humiliated, and I will give the rest of them to the sword before their enemies, says YAHWEH.
10; Woe to me, my mother, that you have borne me, a man of strife, and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have not loaned, nor have they loaned to me; yet everyone curses me.
11; YAHWEH said, Truly, I will not free you for good. Truly I will cause the enemy to entreat you in the time of evil and in the time of distress.
12; Can one break iron, iron or bronze from the north?
13; Your wealth and your treasures I will give for prey, not for price, but for all your sins, even in all your borders.
14; And I will make you pass with your enemies into a land you do not know. For a fire has been kindled in My anger; it shall burn against you.
15; O YAHWEH, You know. Remember me and visit me, and take vengeance for me on those who seek to hurt me. Do not take me away in Your long-suffering; know that I bear reproach for You.
16; Your Words were found and I ate them; and Your Word was to me the joy and gladness of my heart. For I am called by Your name, O YAHWEH, Elohim of Hosts.
17; I did not sit in the circle of merrymakers, nor exult. I sat alone because of Your hand; for You have filled me with indignation.
18; Why has my pain been continual and my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? You surely are to me like a false stream, whose waters cannot be trusted.
19; So YAHWEH says this: If you return, then I will restore you again; you shall stand before Me. And if you take the precious from the worthless, you shall be as My mouth. Let them turn back to you, but do not return to them.
20; And I will make you a fortified wall of bronze to this people. And they shall fight against you, but they shall not overcome you; for I am with you to save you and to deliver you, says YAHWEH.
21; And I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the evil ones.
Chapter 16
1; The Word of YAHWEH came to me, saying,
2; You shall not take a wife for yourself, nor shall you have sons or daughters in this place.
3; For so says YAHWEH concerning the sons and concerning the daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them, and concerning their fathers who fathered them in this land:
4; They shall die of deadly diseases; they shall not be mourned nor shall they be buried; they shall be as dung on the face of the earth. And they shall be consumed by the sword and by famine, and their bodies shall be food for the birds of the heavens, and for the beasts of the earth.
5; For so says YAHWEH, Do not enter into the house of mourning. Do not go to weep or moan for them. For I have removed My peace with loving- kindness and compassions from this people says YAHWEH.
6; Both the great and the small shall die in this land. They shall not be buried, nor shall men mourn for them, nor cut himself, nor shave himself bald for them.
7; Nor shall anyone break for them in mourning, to comfort him for ones who died. Nor shall they give them the cup of comfort to drink for one's father or one's mother.
8; Also you shall not go into the house of feasting, to sit with them to eat and drink.
9; For so says YAHWEH of Hosts the Elohim of Israel: Behold I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.
10; And it shall be, when you declare to this people all these Words, they will say to you, Why has YAHWEH spoken all this great evil against us? Or what is our iniquity, or what is our sin that we have committed against YAHWEH our Elohim?
11; Then you shall say to them, Because your fathers have forsaken Me, says YAHWEH, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshiped them, and have forsaken Me, and have not kept My Torah.
12; And you have done more evil than your fathers. For, behold, you each one walk after the stubbornness of his evil heart, without listening to Me.
13; And I will cast you out of this land into a land that you do not know, you nor your fathers. And there you shall serve other Elohim day and night, where I will not grant you favor.
14; So, behold, the days come, says YAHWEH, that it shall no more be said, As YAHWEH lives who brought up the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
15; But rather, As YAHWEH lives who brought up the sons of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands, there where He had banished them to. And I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their fathers.
16; Behold, I will send for many fishermen, says YAHWEH. And they shall fish them. And after this I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them, from every mountain and from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.
17; For My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face; their iniquity is not hidden from My eyes.
18; And first I will repay double their iniquity and their sin, because they have defiled My land with the bodies of their hateful things. Yea, their hateful idols have filled My inheritance.
19; O YAHWEH, my strength and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the nations shall come to You from the ends of the earth and say, Our fathers have inherited only lies, vanity, and there is no profit in them.
20; Can a man make gods to himself? But they are not Elohim!
21; Therefore, behold, I will make them know this time; I will cause them to know My hand and My might; and they shall know that My name is YAHWEH.
Chapter 17
1; The sin of Judah is engraved with an iron pen. It is carved on the tablet of their heart with the point of a diamond, and on the horns of your altars,
2; even while their sons remember their altars and their Asherahs by the green trees on the high hills.
3; O My mountain in the field! I will give your wealth, all your treasures, for prey, your high places for sin throughout all your borders.
4; And you, even through yourself, will let drop from your inheritance which I gave you. And I will cause you to serve your enemies in a land which you do not know. For you have kindled a fire in My anger; it will burn forever.
5; So says YAHWEH, Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and who makes flesh his arm, and who turns aside his heart from YAHWEH.
6; For he shall be like a juniper in the desert, and shall not see when good comes. But he shall live in dried places in the wilderness, in a salt land that is not inhabited.
7; Blessed is the man who trusts in YAHWEH, and YAHWEH is his refuge.
8; For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters. It sends out its roots by the stream, and it will not fear when the heat comes; but its foliage will be green; and it is not anxious in the year of drought, nor will it cease from yielding fruit.
9; The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is incurable; who can know it?
10; I, YAHWEH, search the heart, I try the reins, even to give to each man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.
11; As a partridge broods and does not hatch, so is he who makes riches, and not by right; it will leave him in the middle of his days, and in his end he will be a fool.
12; A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.
13; O YAHWEH, the Hope of Israel, all who forsake You shall be ashamed. Those who depart from Me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken YAHWEH, the Fountain of living waters.
14; Heal me, O YAHWEH, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved; for You are my praise.
15; Behold, they say to me, Where is the Word of YAHWEH? Let it come now.
16; And I have not hurried away from shepherding after You, nor have I desired the woeful day. You surely know that the utterance of my lips was before Your face.
17; Do not be a terror to me; You are my refuge in the day of evil.
18; Let those who persecute me be ashamed, but do not let me be ashamed. Let them be terrified, but do not let me be terrified. Bring on them the day of evil, and break them with double breaking.
19; So said YAHWEH to me, Go and stand in the gate of the sons of the people, that by which the kings of Judah come in, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem.
20; And say to them, Hear the Word of YAHWEH, kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the residents of Jerusalem who enter in by these gates.
21; So says YAHWEH, Take heed for the sake of your lives, and do not carry a burden on the Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem.
22; And do not carry a burden from your houses on the Sabbath day, nor do any work, but keep the Sabbath day Set-Apart, as I commanded your fathers.
23; But they did not obey nor bow down their ear, but they made their neck stiff, not to hear, nor to receive instruction.
24; And it shall be, if you carefully listen to me, says YAHWEH, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, but keep the Sabbath day Set-Apart, to do no work in it, 25; even kings and rulers sitting on the throne of David shall enter into the gates of this city, riding on chariots and on horses, they and their rulers, the men of Judah, and those living in Jerusalem. And this city will be inhabited forever.
26; And they will come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the Shephelah, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and grain offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving to the house of YAHWEH.
27; But if you will not listen to Me to keep the Sabbath day Set-Apart, and to not carry a burden and enter at the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in her gates. And it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem; yea, it shall not be put out.
Chapter 18
1; The Word which was to Jeremiah from YAHWEH, saying,
2; Rise up and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause you to hear My Words.
3; Then I went down to the potter's house, and behold, he was working a work on the wheel.
4; And the vessel that he made in clay was ruined in the hand of the potter. So repeating he made it, another vessel, as it seemed good in the potter's eyes to make it.
5; And the Word of YAHWEH was to me, saying,
6; O house of Israel, can I not do to you as this potter? says YAHWEH. Behold, as the clay in the potter's hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel.
7; The instant I speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, or to break down, or to destroy;
8; if that nation against whom I have spoken will turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do to it.
9; And the instant I speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
10; if it does evil in My eye, not to obey My voice, then I will repent of the good which I had said to do good to it.
11; Now then, please speak to the men of Judah and to those living in Jerusalem, saying, So says YAHWEH, Behold, I am forming evil against you, and devising a plan against you. Now each one turn from his evil way, and make your ways and your doings good.
12; And they say, It is hopeless. For we will walk after our own thoughts, and we will each one do according to the stubbornness of his evil heart.
13; Therefore YAHWEH says this: Ask now among the nations, Who has heard things like these? The virgin of Israel has done a very horrible thing.
14; Does the snow of Lebanon forsake from the rock of the field? Or are the cold flowing waters that come from another place uprooted?
15; But My people have forgotten Me. They have burned incense to vain idols; and they have caused them to stumble in their ways, from the old paths, to walk in bypaths, not on the highway;
16; to make their land a desolation, a hissing forever. Everyone who passes by will be amazed and will shake his head.
17; I will scatter them like an east wind before the enemy; I will make them see the back, and not the face in the day of their calamity.
18; Then they said, Come and let us plot schemes against Jeremiah. For the Torah shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor word from the prophet. Come and let us strike him with the tongue, and let us not attend to any of his words.
19; O YAHWEH, pay attention to me, and pay attention to the voice of my adversaries.
20; Should evil be repaid for good? For they have dug a pit for my soul. Remember, I stood before You to speak good concerning them, to turn Your wrath from them.
21; Therefore give their sons to the famine, and make them run onto the hand of the sword. And let their wives be bereaved, and be widows, and let their men be the slain of death, their young men be those struck by the sword in battle.
22; Let a cry be heard from their houses when You suddenly bring a raiding band on them. For they have dug a pit to seize me, and have hidden snares for my feet.
23; Yet, O YAHWEH, You know all their counsel to death against me. Do not atone for their iniquity, nor blot out their sin from Your face, but let them be those made to stumble before You; deal with them in the time of Your anger.
Chapter 19
1; So says YAHWEH, Go and buy a potter's earthen jar, and gather from the elders of the people, and from the elders of the priests.
2; And go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom by the entry of Potsherd Gate. And there declare the Words that I will speak to you.
3; And say, Hear the Word of YAHWEH, O kings of Judah, and those living in Jerusalem. So says YAHWEH of Hosts, the Elohim of Israel: Behold, I will bring evil on this place by which all who hear it will have tingling ears.
4; Because they have forsaken Me, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it to other gods whom neither they nor their fathers have known, nor the kings of Judah, and have filled this place with the blood of innocents.
5; They have also built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings to Baal, which I never commanded nor spoke, nor did it come into My heart.
6; So, behold, the days come, says YAHWEH, that this place shall be no more called Tophet, or the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter.
7; And I will make the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem come to nothing in this place. And I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life. And I will give their dead bodies for food to the birds of the heavens, and for the animals of the earth.
8; And I will make this city a waste and a hissing. Everyone who passes by shall be amazed and shall hiss because of all its plagues.
9; And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters. And they shall each one eat the flesh of his friend in the siege and distress with which their enemies and those who seek their life shall oppress them.
10; And you shall break the jar before the eyes of the men who go with you,
11; and shall say to them, So says YAHWEH of Hosts, Even so I will break this people and this city, as one breaks the potter's vessel that cannot be restored again. And they shall bury in Tophet, since no place is left to bury.
12; I will do this to this place, says YAHWEH, and to those living in it, and give this place to be as Tophet.
13; And the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah shall be defiled as the place of Tophet, because of all the roofs of the houses on which they have burned incense to all the host of the heavens, and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.
14; Then Jeremiah came from Tophet, where YAHWEH had sent him there to prophesy. And he stood in the court of the house of YAHWEH, and he said to all the people,
15; So says YAHWEH of Hosts, the Elohim of Israel: Behold, I will bring to this city, and on all its towns, all the evil that I have spoken against it, because they have stiffened their necks in order not to hear My Words.
Chapter 20
1; When Pashur the son of Immer, the priest, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things,
2; then Pashur struck Jeremiah the prophet and put him in the stocks in the upper Benjamin Gate, which was by the house of YAHWEH.
3; And it was on the next day that Pashur made Jeremiah go out from the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him,
YAHWEH has not called your name Pashur, but Terror from All Around.
4; For so says YAHWEH, Behold, I will make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends. And they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall see. And I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall exile them into Babylon and kill them with the sword.
5; And I will give all the wealth of this city, and all its produce, and all its precious things, and all the treasures of the kings of Judah, even I will give them into the hand of their enemies who will strip them and take them, and carry them to Babylon.
6; And you, Pashur, and all who live in your house, shall go into captivity. And you shall come to Babylon; and you shall die there. And you shall be buried there, you and all those loving you to whom you have prophesied lies.
7; O YAHWEH, You have deceived me; yea, I was deceived. You are stronger than I, and You have prevailed. I am a laughingstock all day long and everyone mocks me.
8; For whenever I speak, I cry out, I proclaim violence and ruin; for the Word of YAHWEH has been to me a reproach and mockery all day long.
9; And I said, I will not mention Him or speak any more in His name. But His Word was in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was grieved of holding in, and I was not able to.
10; For I heard the slanders of many, Terror is all around! Expose! Yea, let us expose him! Every man of my peace watched for my fall, saying, Perhaps he will be lured away, and we shall prevail against him; and we shall take revenge on him.
11; But YAHWEH is with me like a mighty, awesome one. On account of this my persecutors shall stumble and will not prevail. And they shall be greatly ashamed. For they have not acted wisely; they are an everlasting disgrace that will not be forgotten.
12; But, O YAHWEH of Hosts, who tries the righteous, who sees the reins and the heart, let me see Your vengeance on them; for I have revealed my cause to You.
13; Sing to YAHWEH. Praise YAHWEH. For He has delivered the soul of the poor from the hand of evildoers.
14; Cursed is the day in which I was born; let not the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.
15; Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, A man child is born to you, making him very glad.
16; And let that man be as the cities which YAHWEH overthrew and did not repent. And let him hear a cry in the morning and the shouting at noontime;
17; because he did not kill me from the womb; and that my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great with me.
18; Why did I come forth from the womb to see toil and sorrow, and my days consumed in shame?
Chapter 21
1; The Word which was to Jeremiah from YAHWEH, when King Zedekiah sent Pashur the son of Melchiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest to him, saying,
2; Please inquire of YAHWEH for us. For Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon is warring against us. Perhaps YAHWEH will deal with us according to all His wonderful works, that he may go up from us.
3; Then Jeremiah said to them, You shall say this to Zedekiah,
4; So says YAHWEH, the Elohim of Israel: Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war in your hand, with which you fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans who besiege you outside the wall. And I will gather them together in the middle of the city.
5; And I Myself will fight against you with an outstretched arm and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath.
6; And I will strike the people of this city, both man and beast. They shall die of a great plague.
7; And afterward, says YAHWEH, I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, and those who remain in this city from the plague, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchad- nezzar king of Babylon and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life. And he shall strike them with the mouth of the sword; he shall not spare them, nor have pity, nor have compassion.
8; And you shall say to this people, So says YAHWEH, Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
9; He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the plague. But he who goes out and falls to the Chaldeans who are besieging you, he shall live, and his life shall be for a prize to him.
10; For I have set My face against this city for evil, and not for good, says YAHWEH. It shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
11; And concerning the house of the king of Judah, say, Hear the Word of YAHWEH,
12; O house of David, so says YAHWEH: Do justice in the morning, and deliver the plundered one out of the hand of the oppressor, that My fury not go out like fire and burn so that none can put it out, because of the evil of your doings.
13; Behold, I am against you, one dwelling in the valley, rock of the plain, says YAHWEH, those who say, Who can come down against us? Or, Who can enter our dwellings?
14; But I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, says YAHWEH. And I will kindle a fire in its forest, and it shall devour all things around it.
Chapter 22
1; So says YAHWEH, Go down to the house of the king of Judah and speak this Word there,
2; and say, Hear the Word of YAHWEH, O king of Judah who sits on the throne of David, you and your servants, and your people who enter in by these gates.
3; So says YAHWEH, Do justice and righteousness, and deliver the one robbed from the oppressor's hand. And do not oppress the foreigner, the widow, or the orphan, and do not do violence nor shed innocent blood in this place.
4; For if you indeed do this thing, then there shall enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he and his servants and his people.
5; But if you will not hear these Words, I swear by Myself, says YAHWEH, that this house shall become a ruin.
6; For so says YAHWEH concerning the king of Judah's house, You are Gilead to Me, the head of Lebanon; yet surely I will make you a wilderness, cities not inhabited.
7; And I will consecrate destroyers against you, each one with his weapons; and they will cut down your choice cedars and make them fall into the fire.
8; And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall each say to one another, Why has YAHWEH done this to this great city?
9; Then they will answer, Because they have forsaken the covenant of YAHWEH their Elohim and worshiped other gods and served them.
10; Weep not for the ones who died nor moan for him; weep bitterly for him who goes away, for he shall return no more, nor see the land of his birth.
11; For so says YAHWEH concerning Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned in his father Josiah's place, who went forth from this place: he shall not return there any more.
12; But he shall die there in the place where they have exiled him, and he will see this land no more.
13; Woe to him who builds his house without righteousness, and his upper rooms without justice. His neighbor serves without pay, and he does not give him for his work;
14; who says, I will build myself a wide house and large upper rooms. And he cuts out windows for it and covers with cedar, and paints with vermilion.
15; Do you reign because you lust to excel in cedar? Did not your father eat and drink and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well for him.
16; He judged the cause of the poor and needy, then it was well. Was this not to know Me, says YAHWEH?
17; But your eyes and your heart lust for nothing but your unjust gain, and to shed innocent blood, and oppression, and to do violence.
18; So YAHWEH says this concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, They shall not mourn for him, saying, Ah, my brother! Or, Ah, sister! They shall not mourn for him, saying, Ah, master! Or, Ah, his glory!
19; He shall be buried with the burial of a donkey , drawn beyond the gates of Jerusalem and thrown out.
20; Go up to Lebanon and cry. And lift up your voice in Bashan, and cry out from the other side of the Jordan; for all those loving you are destroyed.
21; I spoke to you in your prosperity, but you said, I will not hear. This has been your way from your youth, for you have not obeyed My voice.
22; Those feeding you shall feed the wind, and those loving you shall go into captivity. Surely then you will be ashamed and will blush for all your wickedness.
23; One dwelling in Lebanon, nested in the cedars, how you will groan when pangs come to you, the pain as of a woman in labor!
24; As I live, says YAHWEH, though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah were the signet on My right hand, yet I would tear you out of there!
25; And I will give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of those whose face you fear, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
26; And I will cast you and your mother who bore you into another country, there where you were not born; and there you shall die.
27; But concerning the land which they lift up with their soul, to return there, they shall not return there.
28; Is this man Coniah a despised, broken jar, or a vessel in which is no pleasure? Why are they hurled, he and his seed, and are cast into the land which they do not know?
29; O earth, earth, earth! Hear the Word of YAHWEH!
30; So says YAHWEH, Write this man childless, a man who will not prosper in his days. For not one from his seed will succeed, a man sitting on the throne of David and ruling any more in Judah.

There will be a lot of silver tinsel and gold in the White House this Christmas season thanks to the first lady.
Melania Trump gave a sneak peek of the theme of this year's holiday decorations at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and it's clear that she opted for a more traditional motif which includes 53 Christmas trees festooned with more than 12,000 ornaments and 18,000 lights, according to her office.
The biggest of those trees, an 18-foot fir, will grace the Blue Room complete with ornaments bearing the seals of all 50 states, as well as of the U.S. territories, a tradition for the official White House Christmas Tree that the Trump family will continue, the Associated Press reported.
The nod to tradition is quite intentional. This year's theme is "Time-Honored Traditions," which the White House said pays respect to 200 years of holiday traditions in the mansion.
There are, however, some new flourishes - including wreaths hanging from the exterior of every window. A framed family Christmas card on display reads, "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year" and is signed by President Trump, his wife and their 11-year-old son, Baron.
A 350-pound gingerbread house replica of the White House will also be on display in the he State Dining Room.
On Monday, the first lady's office showed off the decorations for journalists and children from a nearby military base — with a one-minute highlight video posted to her Twitter feed. The displays are the work of more than 150 volunteers who spent 1,600 hours during the long holiday weekend, according to the AP.
"The President, Barron, and I are very excited for our first Christmas in the White House," Melania Trump said in a statement. "As with many families across the country, holiday traditions are very important to us. I hope when visiting the People's House this year, visitors will get a sense of being home for the holidays."

The tie will be played over the weekend of the 5th November, we will make a statement later in the week with full details of the match.
The Robins hosted Crewe in the league back in August, with Rob Dickie and James Dayton scoring to give Cheltenham a 2-0 win at the LCI Rail Stadium.
Gaffer Gary Johnson has commented, " The first thing in the cup is to get a home tie and we've done that. The win over them was important earlier in the season as it was our first league win. We've improved since then and they have too so it will be a good tie."
He also said, " Hopefully this tie will have whet fans' appetite and they'll come along to cheer on the boys. It's going to be a big game for us!"

5 Apps to Help You Get the Most Out of Summer!
As the Republic heads into some warmer weather, we have to adapt our humanoid forms too. And the best way to do that? Rely on our trusty smartphones. There are some great apps out there that'll help us get the best out of the incoming season, and we've rounded up some of the best to help you smash summer this year. Here are 5 apps to help you beat the heat this summer!
Rock Clock (free)
Summer means good weather, and there's no point in sleeping in and wasting it. So who better to wake you up than Hollywood superstar (and the most electrifying man in sports entertainment), Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson? That's right, the Rock has his own alarm app now, designed specifically to give you that much-needed kick in the ass and some motivation in the mornings. You'll get morale-boosting messages from the man himself, taking your morning routine up about 10 notches. Oh yeah, there's no snooze button, so don't even think about it.
Yahoo! Weather (iOS, Android)
Yeah, it's a weather app. It may not sound that exciting, but Yahoo have created one that takes your climate-checking to a new level. Using photos to match your location, time of day, and current conditions, the app brings a whole new visual element to the standard chart forecast format. Even better, these aren't just stock photos, they come from users like you. Perfect to keep an eye on the summer sun this year.
Castle Lager Braai Nation
We South Africans love a good braai, and doing it in summer makes it that much better. But if you don't know what you're doing then you can ruin a perfectly good piece of meat. If you want to avoid lighter fluid-tasting burgers or charcoal briquette steaks, get the Castle Lager Braai Nation app. It's like having a master braai-god standing next to you guiding you through the braaiing process. The app features recipes, tips and even a quiz game to keep you occupied around the braai.
Download on Android and iOS here.
Find Free WiFi in ZA (Free)
The gorgeous weather will inevitably see South Africans hopping around the country and even their own cities, and losing connection isn't an option. In order to remain in touch wherever you are, the nifty Find Free WiFi app will suss out WiFi hotspots for you where you don't have to pay to logon. Everyone needs to stop and tap out that urgent email once in a while, and Find Free WiFi lets you do that with ease.
Uber (free)
It may seem like every guy and his dog uses Uber, but it's amazing how many people are yet to jump aboard the transport revolution. Having taken public transport by storm, Uber is now available in more than 50 countries. Simply download the app, create a profile, punch in where you need to be and the Uber app will calculate the cost. You can also track where your driver is while you're waiting.

The heavy rain from Alberto could leave some streets in Loxahatchee underwater. Several roads were still flooded after last weekend's rain.
Aaron Joyce said his land still have several feet of water even after days of no rain.
"Everyone out here is truly on pins and needles," said Joyce.
He said he made sure all of his animals are in dry conditions but several of the farmers in the area have cows stuck in flooded fields.
He said the roads become an issue when it rains and the canals are already so full any more rain would overflow all of them and cause even more problems.
"If they don't continue to pump even after that, we are going to be up in our houses," he said.
Joyce said he is prepared if he get's stuck at home, but he is also prepared to leave if he has to.
"The roads getting in and out of these places are getting so flooded and washed out, it is becoming a safety issue with fire and police coming back here."

The main goal to our visit to Chromitsa was a winetasting at the Tsantali winery.
Mr Christos Bitsios, the Tsantali manager who kindly showed us around and explained us everything about the history of the Tsantali company and the Chromitsa vineyards, started the tour with coffee and glass of tsipourou.
The view from Chromitsa: Ouranopolis
The grapes and vines of Chromitsa: different varieties are kept, not only traditional Greek ones, but also of French origin.
These "vieilles vignes" are the vines that create the iconic wine "Kormilitsa" ('nurse'), the housewine of the Kremlin
The building were the Chromitsa wine is kept and where the winetasting takes place (building A – for a plan look here).
The view from building A: the vineyard with a small chapel in its middle
Inside building A
The wine is kept in French oak tanks and barrels. The wine is not produced at the Chromitsa vinerery but at the Agios Pavlos head office of Tsantali in Nea Kalikratia Halkidiki. Presumeably they bring the barrels back to Chromitsa, to let their better wines – like the Avaton – age at the place of harvesting (?).
the Tsantali top wine: Abaton
Christos Bitsios and your webmaster
In a short while I will give you the results of the Dutch jury, who tasted different Athos wines, like the Tsantali Abaton and Kormelitsa, the Mylopotamos and the Monoxylites wines.
Wim, 20/5

ROTTERDAM, Netherlands (AFP) - Dutch prosecutors said on Friday they need to know where a missile that may have shot down flight MH17 was fired from in eastern Ukraine before criminal charges could be laid.
"When we know from where it was fired, then we can find out who controlled that area," and possibly prosecute, Dutch chief investigator Fred Westerbeke told journalists in Rotterdam.
"The most likely scenario was that the plane was shot down from the ground," he said.
Dutch authorities have taken the lead in the criminal probe into what brought down Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 over conflict-torn Ukraine on July 17, killing all 298 on board, most of them Dutch.
Mr Westerbeke said that they had not yet obtained US satellite photos of areas from which a missile might have been launched.
"We will get them," Mr Westerbeke said, adding that it was a "long process".
An initial report by a Dutch air safety probe into the crash released on Tuesday said that the plane was struck by numerous "high-energy objects".
The report ruled out pilot error or mechanical failure, leaving shooting down from the ground or from the air as well as a terrorist bombing as the only other scenarios.
Kiev and the West have accused separatists of shooting it down with a surface-to-air BUK missile supplied by Moscow.
Moscow and the rebels deny this and point the finger at Kiev.
Privileging the missile strike theory, investigators are examining "around 25" pieces of metal found in some of the bodies, said Ms Patricia Zorko of the Dutch national police.
"Now we need to find out if they come from inside the plane or is this something that came from outside the plane," Ms Zorko told journalists.
Intercepted telephone conversations between separatists allegedly talking about shooting down the plane have not yet been authenticated.
"We are studying the intercepted telephone call," Ms Zorko said of one of the conversations.
"The conversation is between rebels who allegedly shot down the plane, but we really need to authenticate it," she said.
The Netherlands lost 193 citizens, Malaysia lost 43 and Australia 27 on the doomed flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.
So far 193 crash victims of the crash have been identified.
An international investigation team involving police and prosecutors from several countries including the Netherlands, Australia, Ukraine and Belgium as well as, to a lesser extent, Malaysia, has been set up, with over 100 investigators working on the probe.
Investigators have made, received or found about 20,000 pictures and 750 videos, which they are studying, said Zorko.

Surrounded by legend and myth, the Laguiole knife still carries the mark of its ancestors. The bee that is found engraved on all Laguiole products, was originally part of Napoleon Bonaparte's imperial seal.
The blade, made of high-grade stainless steel, is stamped, then ground and then polished in over 25 different manual production stages.
Recently, the Laguiole mark has expanded to include flatware, wine waiters and cutlery crafted with the same quality and craftsmanship. Trusted and revered in kitchens and restaurants throughout France, the Dubost family is happy for the Laguiole tradition to finally reach this side of the Atlantic.

You're the first point of contact for staff and suppliers, plus a multitude of clients with their own requests. Your job is to manage all of these people to ensure that every event runs without a hitch.
We work with brilliant venues and Venue Managers every day so we asked them what skills they think are most important to excel in the role 💪.
1. It's all about confidence
With so many people relying on you, it is absolutely crucial to be confident and self-assured. A great thing about events and venue management, is that you can easily use skills from previous experience to get tasks done well.
As the Venue Manager, you know your space better than anyone. Have the confidence and ability to understand what types of events work best in what ways in your venue. You know best, so don't be afraid to turn down briefs if they're not the best fit for your venue.
When discussing the relationship between events and venue managers, Darren Hart, former Director of Sales at Camm and Hooper, says that "being as honest as possible with the venue team allows us to really work within the realistic parameters. If we cannot help, we will let you know."
Making this clear when sorting out a booking will guarantee both parties have a clear view. When you have a plan in place, you're guaranteed to succeed. Having confidence in your initial steps and being determined to follow through will ensure that the next event hosted at your venue is seamless. All this will secure more good reviews, more engagement and more bookings.
2. People skills
A key quality needed by most venue managers is people skills. You need to be comfortable connecting with high-level executives, government officials, vendors, co-workers, sponsor reps, customers, supervisors, suppliers, staff, and event attendees alike.
To successfully work with this wide range of people, you'll need to easily resolve conflicts, be a confident but mindful negotiator, and maintain a sense of humour in the most stressful of circumstances. Meeting the demands of event managers can be stressful, so maintaining a composed outlook is crucial.
The ability to understand what key stakeholders require from your venue is also key. These people may not be in the events industry, so when they make their enquiry they might not understand what's realistic or what would and wouldn't work. An excellent venue manager will be able to help educate and guide the way to a successful event.
Thoroughly understanding their needs and making sure all parties share the same expectations is critical. Remain one step ahead by paying attention to what's said and what's not said in key conversations. Managing expectations is a vital aspect of venue management, as it ensures that everyone is on the same page and no one ends up disappointed.
3. Be organised and plan ahead
To successfully run any venue, you need to juggle about 50 things at once… No pressure.
The multi-tasking prowess you'll need to adopt is required for both smooth planning and flawless execution of every event at your venue. The best venue managers have foolproof systems, step-by-step checklists, and handy tech tools to hand for every occasion. Using tools such as Airtable and Evernote are surefire ways to keep on top of all the things on your list.
Working as a venue manager requires the ability to focus on the big picture while keeping track of the little details. You want to make sure you allocate enough time for day to day tasks as well as planning sessions for the upcoming months.
To avoid burnout, get comfortable delegating some of your more time-consuming tasks to your team. And, if things don't go according to plan, don't be afraid to switch to Plan B or Plan C. If all else fails, Plan D is there to avoid a crisis! The Head of Events at an International Real Estate Company offers the advice: "be flexible with your plans and be prepared to compromise". If all of your plans need to merge into one, or be disregarded entirely, that's fine. Keeping a cool head and remembering that these plans are never concrete is a surefire way to stay on top of things.
Another great technique that will help you plan ahead and stay organised is called "chunking". Chunking is simply breaking down a large project into smaller segments making it easier to digest. You can then decide what to do with those segments. Prioritise, delegate and decide which, if not all of them, you're doing yourself. Then simply diarise them in order of urgency and importance.
The main thing is to get some perspective. You've been given the job, you've accepted the challenge and now you are breaking it down into more manageable portions.

Many forces change the surface of the Earth over time. The largest force that changes our planet's surface is movement of Earth's outer layer in a process called plate tectonics.
As shown in this picture, the Earth's outer layer, called the lithosphere, is broken into plates which fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. These plates move very slowly (2 inches per year).
Plates crash into each other at subduction zones.
Plates pull apart at spreading ridges.

Bernard Tschumi is regarded as one of the universe s open uping designers, rejecting the diehard outlook and one of the few bow smugglers of deconstructivism. His essay, The Pleasure of Architecture which was written in 1978 manifests his theoretical thoughts of the pleasances in architecture, in which he stresses on the inutility of architecture and the inclusion of perversion and the irrational.
It talks about sensualness and sexual analogies such as erotism, surplus, bondage, seduction and bounds of architecture which he represents in 11 fragments. One of Tschumi s most celebrated undertakings, the Parc de la Villette is the prototype of his deconstructivist thought. It breaks off from functionalist theories of the past and is designed as a twenty-first century urban park, where plans and superimposition of systems comes into drama and the construct of signifier follows map becomes a polar antonym.
The UFA Cinema Center by Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, the brace who challenges traditional anthropocentric architecture and is categorized as deconstructivists, besides incorporates the thought of deconstructivism, with its urban construct, dynamic geometries and injection of public infinites. It became one of their noteworthy plants in deconstructivist thought.
The first portion of this paper discusses on Tschumi s fragments in The Pleasure of Architecture, the significances that they carry and his impression of pleasance derived from those fragments which are closely related to one another. In relation to that, how his theory on deconstructivism is incorporated into the Parc de la Vilette and the pleasances that manifest from it. Separate two discusses on Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold s UFA Cinema Centre, how it relates back to Tschumi s fragments and how it s deconstructivist design transforms it into an architecture of pleasance.
How does Bernard Tschumi s impression of pleasance and deconstructivism manifest in the Parc de la Vilette? Harmonizing to Tschumi, pleasance can be achieved from two types of resistances, the intercession of the norm in which society expects of what architecture should be, usefulness which leads to its inutility ( Tschumi, 1977 ) , and the un-intendancy to make a infinite for map that was either with purposes or inadvertent which forms a disjuncture ( Tschumi, 1981 ) . Tschumi distinguishes pleasance from cloud nine or rapture, in which this apprehension was influenced by Roland Barthes book The Pleasure of the Text ( Hill, 2003 ) .
In The Pleasure of Architecture, fragments of gender separate Tschumi s thoughts of pleasance and some of which can be seen in the Parc de la ViIlette. Bernard Tschumi s Parc de la Vilette emerged as a victor in a park design competition held by the Gallic Government in 1982. The purpose was to mean the beginning of a new epoch in an of import portion of Paris, to guarantee its future good development. ( Damiani, 2003 ) . It is a coaction of Tschumi, Peter Eisenman and Jacques Derrida, the three being deconstructivist designers and Derrida, the precursor of deconstruction ( Kipnis, 1991 ) .
Neither the pleasance of infinite nor the pleasance of geometry is ( on its ain ) the pleasance of architecture. It is both. ( Tschumi,1977 ) . Tschumi s first fragment explains that the pleasance in architecture is neither the enjoyable experience of infinite nor the creative activity of signifier and geometry entirely but the hit of both. This manifests in the Parc de la Vilette, where the superimposition of three different systems: Points, lines and surfaces is seen ( Damiani, 2003 ) .
The points are represented by the distinguishable ruddy mental disorders which appear as three floor regular hexahedrons in which no map was intended to it, hence go forthing it as an unfastened infinite. He used the thought of repeat to distinguish each mental disorders, with geometries lodging to it as the lone noteworthy difference. ( Masschelein & A ; Straeten, n.d. ) . This creates the pleasance of geometry.
The signifier of the mental disorder was designed before it was given a map, following the rules of deconstructivism. ( Turner, 1994 ) . The 2nd system, the lines, structures the circulation of walkers and a additive infinite is created, taking one towards interesting positions and musca volitanss. ( Masschelein & A ; Straeten, n.d. ) . This creates the pleasance of infinite. The 3rd system which is the surface signifiers big horizontal infinites for the usage of assorted activities and once more the pleasance of geometry comes to light. ( Masschelein & A ; Straeten, n.d. ) . The superimpositions of these systems collide and therefore it is a pleasance of architecture and the separation of the systems three signifiers deconstruction.
The pleasance of infinite: This can non be put into words, it is mute. It is the signifier of experience ( Tschumi, 1977 ) . In order to experience pleasance in a infinite, one must see the existent thing and that it can non be described with words entirely. This can be represented in the superimpositions of the park, where its complexness, described in text is inexplicable compared to one sing the existent thing.
Tschumi touches on the inutility of architecture and how designers are confronting societal constrains, where unreason of architecture is regarded as incorrect. ( Tschumi, 1977 ) . The necessity of architecture may good be its non-necessity ( Tschumi, 1977 ) . He argues that architecture should be useless, and serves no intent, contrary to what society expects it to be. ( Hill, 2003 ) The abuse of and denial of the norm, uselessness becomes utile, that is enjoyable. ( Hill, 2003 ) . Tschumi provinces that a park is like pyrotechnics, used for production and ingestion, it is useless but at the same clip it made to provides pleasance. ( Hill, 2003 ) .
Parc de la Villette is designed without a set map in head, its model and organisation allows an interchange of people, events and infinites which contributes to more freedom and looks in the park. Partss and constructions can be easy replaced and shifted while still keeping its individuality with the thoughts of deconstructivism, this rejects the traditional regulations of urban Parkss therefore its freedom is regarded as useless and a non-necessity, this abuse becomes a pleasance in architecture. ( Pugh, 2004 )
This fragment focuses on the restraints of architecture, in the signifier of regulations, theories, Torahs and past functionalist tenet. Like the game of bondage, it is sadistic, miring architectural design like adhering ropes. Pleasure derives when the restraint is greater, and the idea of get the better ofing that sophisticated bind. ( Tschumi, 1977 ) .
The Parc de la Villette was portion of a competition in which Tschumi had won. There were protests from landscape interior decorators on the engagement of designers and at the same clip, political alterations were made, and economic crisis was at a high. ( Damiani, 2003 ) . These were the restraints that Tschumi had to face at the clip along with the historical background of the site, being a abattoir antecedently and one of the last leftover big sites in Paris. ( Damiani, 2003 ) .
In this fragment, it states that architecture should travel against traditional rules which are regarded as out-of-date and that its continuity on reason becomes irrational. Like the principals of deconstructivism, in which its upset and unconventional methods are regarded as irrational and interrupting free from traditional discourses. ( Tschumi, 1977 ) This is seen in the ruddy mental disorders which spreads along the park, each different signifier one another, and how they were non assigned a map in contrast to past rules.
The fragment of Eroticism says that pleasance is non about the contentment of the senses nor is it the sensualness of infinite. Eroticism is non the surplus of pleasance, but the pleasance of surplus. ( Tschumi, 1977 ) . Is it in fact a junction between infinite and constructs, ( Tschumi, 1977 ) .
In the instance of the Parc de la Villette, its disjuncture of infinites and events was made to be knowing or inadvertent, with complex programmes scattered from one another making a contrast of maps. ( Hill, 2003 ) . This fragment provinces that architecture is a seducer, have oning masks, concealing behind frontages and architectural elements. Yet behind those provocative masks lies the pleasance of architecture. ( Tschumi, 1977 ) .
With its big country compromising assorted and different maps and programmes of amusement installations, its architectural elements becomes the mask of the Parc de la Villette, non cognizing what to anticipate from each component as there is no set map or hierarchy. Yet unveiling what map lies behind it leads to pleasure.
The fragment Excess negotiations about interrupting free and transcending outlooks. It states that architecture should non copy the past nor should architecture obey it. It should make semblances ; interrupt free from formalities, orders, systems and case in points. It should be different and be something formal society does non anticipate it to be. That is the ultimate pleasance, when regulations and bounds are considered incorrect and architecture becomes better than it should be. ( Tschumi, 1977 ) .
The thoughts of deconstructivism and pleasance one time once more manifests in the park s system of points represented by the grid of mental disorders. It replaces the traditional inactive park memorials by holding alone infinites and hosting assorted programmes. It becomes mention points for the park every bit good, holding room for extensions since it is non imposed with hierarchy. ( Pugh, 2004 ) . This abnormality deconstructs the traditional outlook and functionalist discourses. ( Masschelein & A ; Straeten, n.d. ) . This fragment besides talks about construct and infinite colliding, deconstruction of past principals and where regulations are transgressed and is considered perverse. ( Tschumi, 1977 ) .
The parks superimposition of three systems is irregular, additive and undulating, in contrast to the controlling and stoic 1s found in traditional Parkss. They do non take you to specific topographic points or a series of musca volitanss, they are random, merely moving as tracts in which you walk on. They are useless but this is the pleasance of architecture when it becomes something that society does non anticipate it to be.
The last of the fragments high spots that architecture consists of fragments which exists in text and in dreams. It is the receiver of 1s thoughts and wants. Its elements seduce and wish to be brought to world. ( Tschumi, 1977 ) . The Parc de la Villette is the consequence of Tschumi s, Derrida s and Eisenman s coaction in making the ultimate urban park of the twenty-first century. It was derived from the designers theories of deconstructivism and was brought into world after winning a competition. The consequence of Tschumi s winning strategy with the aid of the other two is one of the universe most celebrated Parkss.
The Parc de la Villette is an architecture of pleasance. Its early strategies, superimposition of three systems and mental disorders demonstrated its mention to Tschumi s fragments of The Pleasure of Architecture every bit good as the thoughts of deconstructivism. The denudation of these fragments will be used to associate to the UFA Cinema Center, how pleasure manifests from it in relation to Tschumi s impression of deconstructivism and pleasance.
How does Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold incorporate their construct of deconstructivism into 1s indulgence of pleasance in the UFA Cinema Center? Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold came to be from the celebrated coupling of Wolf D. Prix. and Helmut Swiczinsky in 1968. The squad follows theoretical thoughts of antihumanism and facets of the organic structure, which is perceived as a atomization and decomposition, carried unto the design of their edifices under the subject of deconstructivism. ( Masschelein & A ; Straeten, n.d. ) .
Like other deconstructivist designers Tschumi, Eisenman and Derrida, Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold challenges the constrains of the past such as Torahs, orders and formalities of given manners that is embedded into architecture and seeks for freedom and alteration in its subjects. ( Coop Himmelblau, n.d. ) . Their extremist thought brings 4th the UFA Cinema Center, their iconic work based on the theory of deconstructivism.
The film centre was completed in 1998, located in the historical site of Dresden, Germany. The edifice can be summarized as Eight films are placed in braces on four narratives in an unmoved concrete box, which due to its pick of heavy stuffs screens both the cinemagoer every bit good as the glass anteroom from the traffic noise of the next ring route. ( Skude, n.d. ) .
The film centre was made to work out the job of public infinites in Dresden that is being sacrificed for the interest of development. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . Therefore a monofuctional edifice was proposed that adds urban infinites and maps inside, making a new experience of public infinites. ( Coop Himmelblau, n.d. ) . Tschumi s first fragment provinces that pleasance can be derived from the hit of spacial experience and geometry.
The film can be divided into two linking units, the film block and the crystal. The film block non merely maps as a topographic point for films but serves as a permeable infinite which links with the environing streets, making a connexion between Pragerstra vitamin E and St. Petersburger Stra e. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . The crystal serves as both entry hall for the film every bit good as urban passageway, with Bridgess, inclines and stepss linking multiple degrees, enabling positions in different angles. This experience is like that of a movie construction. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . Therefore a dual pleasance in architecture is created form the occasions between the edifices geometrical drama that creates public infinites on the interior and the assorted maps that is injected into it.
Dresden is considered as a metropolis with historical values and an edgy society, constructing a film centre at the site was thought to be unusual. ( Skude, n.d. ) . The cinemas milieus consist of post-modern manner edifices with nil particular nor out of the ordinary. Public infinites were a job therefore the film is injected with a host of assorted maps to make public insides.
To suit these infinites an extreme formed edifice in the form of a knife and stone was created with contents that functions out of the norm, hanging skybars, inclines and stepss placed irregularly and occasions of stuffs. These characteristics oppose the traditional thoughts of orders and formality ; it is uncomprehended by societies believing and hence rendered as useless. But it is this uselessness that becomes utile in making a edifice that maps good. The abuse of this edifice hence brings out pleasance.
The film Centre is located on a triangular like site clouded with past memories of World War 2, confronting the busy steets of St Petersburgstrasse. Owned by developers with thoughts of capitalising fiscal returns. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . Society there was rejuvenated after post-war and is considered to be conservative. ( Skude, n.d. ) .
Constructing a modern film composite which incorporates the designers thoughts of deconstructivism would be unusual if non perverse. They were bound by the heritage values of the site, the proprietors, and society s outlooks. Nevertheless a one of a sort edifice of that epoch arose from the ashes, disputing the old post-war designs and conservative outlooks. It was a edifice that was bounded by tight Torahs and restraints doing it even more enjoyable when it breaks free.
Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold emphasizes the signifier of this edifice for the interest of look ( Skude, n.d. ) , doing manner for a extremist and curiously shaped edifice, withstanding traditional Torahs and comprising of complicated inside informations and multiple kinds of infinites jumbled up in two different blocks. The crystal, looking as though it could structurally neglect at any clip comprises of an lift tower that bends back and Forth as it moves, albeit traveling vertically like a normal lift. ( Skude, n.d. ) . The unreason of this edifice hence creates pleasance.
The thought of the UFA Cinema centre was to make a monofucntional edifice with inclusions of new urban infinites and media events inside to undertake the job of public infinites, and at the same clip integrating Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold s construct of deconstructivism. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . From there a unambiguously characterized edifice in the signifier of two irregular forms was created. The glass crystal which acts as a five narrative anteroom, is angled to contrast with the more closed film block ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) , and the thoughts of deconstructivism is more to a great extent applied.
It connects to the exterior infinite utilizing its openness, and enables extremist prevarication of inclines, stepss and overcrossings which are reminiscent of Piranesi s plants. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . In the centre of the anteroom, are heavenly bars which are hung from the ceiling making a sense of drifting in infinite. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . With this a junction of infinite and construct is created, doing it titillating.
Public infinites are being eradicated for development as is acquiring lesser as we know it ; this is what Dresden is confronting. Public infinites are going unseeable as they are taken off. The film centre proves that urban public infinites can be created with development and can be physically seen without going unseeable. ( Wells, n.d. ) . The crystal anteroom is able to host assorted events and maps such as a coffeehouse, it acts as a public square at the same time. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) .
This is done by making a suited signifier to back up the programmes. The inclines and stepss that forms a circulation within the crystal allows positions to the outside from different degrees and at the same clip positions to the interior of the edifice through opaque beds. ( Wells, n.d. ) . The film block hosts eight films every bit good as being permeable to the streets. The edifice itself is a public infinite, masked behind playful geometries and hit of stuffs, when you discover what lies within, it becomes enjoyable.
The UFA Cinema Center was unexpected, its modern like design is like an foreigner on the background of the old site. Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold ne'er intended to associate the edifice to its milieus. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . It started with the triangular form of the site, from there a triangular signifier is faced pointed to a corner of the film floor program while the fa ade steeply slopes outwards, making a signifier of that a knife or ship. The crystal, appears like the signifier of a propensity stone, resting against the film block and made of opaque glass, structured with steel rods around it, a contrast of the unsmooth film bunch. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) .
The edifice uses a robust of stuffs, glass, concrete, slabs of galvanized gratings, subdivision, stepss and supports made of unstained steeI, and aluminium window mullions. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . It is deconstructed, clearly free from traditional orders and logics. The edifice exceeded the outlooks of society and it is different, it creates semblances and did non obey the yesteryear, it became better than it should be.
The film centre proudly stands tall on the site of Dresden, as though cognizing the lower status of its encompassing architecture. As quoted from Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, We do non work against the old construction in order to destruct it. We work to make new infinites, where and when possible. If an old construction prevents us from making unfastened infinite, we destroy it. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) .
The film centre does non take into consideration its environing context nor will it give up to it. It is different, it does non follow typologies, logical building, formal orders or civilization. The disconnected signifier of the atilt crystal and the film block complete with interplays of stuffs making an internal urban public infinite transgresses traditional regulations. It is an architecture of pleasance because it is obsessed with itself.
The UFA Cinema Center was a consequence of the demand to make a monofunctional edifice to work out the job of public infinites in Dresden. It is made with purposes of maximal capital returns. ( Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold, 2001 ) . The thought of making a edifice which incorporates public infinites and media events into it, making an urban infinite.
Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold brought it to life by chalk outing a psychogram with the undertakings maps and thoughts which are mock created in an artistic manner. The whole procedure including the edifice are fragments. Each unconscious desire and purpose is reflected in the creative activity of the edifice taking to a creative activity which exceeds bounds and defies outlooks.
The deconstructivist thoughts of Coop Himmelb ( cubic decimeter ) gold can be seen in the manifestation of the UFA Cinema Centre in line with the manifestations in Tschumi s Parc de la Villette. The deconstruction of its architectural elements and the dynamism of its signifier is represented with the film block and the propensity crystal which creates public infinites indoors.
The hit of these two facets creates pleasance, and it is titillating. The interplay of stuffs, injection of infinites and connexion between its inside and outside, forms its mask. The film centre, restrained by the site and its society like a game of bondage overcomes it with an architecture which surpasses bounds and outlooks. This one of a sort edifice of its epoch came to be from the designers desires of deconstruction and is an architecture of pleasance.

Clockwise we're going backwards this Judy Tuesday, but the designs seem apropos for an unseasonably warm February. Since it feels like spring outside, here are some spring-themed outfits to enjoy!
I'm not sure I did Chasemore's Butterfly costume justice. But I do like the way the headpiece came out with the little butterfly earring. The headpiece with the grapes also had a leaf earring, but for some reason I didn't draw it.
I work on Judy when I'm too tired to do anything else. That means I can sometimes be sloppy about it. In this case I was overall kind of lazy about the September costume grape dress–I'm frankly amazed I managed to finish it! There were four additional outfits I originally selected from this volume that I ultimately weeded out. They had their charms, but somehow seemed more effort than they were worth to actually render. I always try to pick only the best for my readers!
So there are two more plates for this volume of Judy and I promise we're going to end with a great big bang!

By Carl Begai
Like the vast majority of bands celebrating 25th and 30th Anniversaries, Canadian thrash legends Annihilator's earliest albums are considered go-to classics, never to be repeated or surpassed by the band. No argument there, as the timeless magic of Alice In Hell ('89) and Never, Neverland ('90) is equal to that of records like Master Of Puppets, Reign In Blood, Peace Sells… But Who's Buying?, Bonded By Blood and The Ultra-Violence, to name a few. Annihilator has had a checkered career over the course of 17 albums, which ultimately comes down to frontman / founder Jeff Waters and how he has chosen to pilot his metal machine, and with whom. There have been hits and misses over the years, too many line-up changes to count, some brilliant collaborations, and tours that probably should have been left on paper, but 2020 finds Annihilator the strongest they've been since 2001's Carnival Diablos era. New album Ballistic, Sadistic sees The Jeff Waters & Friends outfit channelling those first two Annihilator records in a big way, and while they remain untouchable it's a solid return to the aggression diehard fans have been demanding for almost three decades. We can credit Waters' move from Canada to the UK for forcing the issue, pulling out all the stops and causing him to unleash some unexpected unbridled fury.
"I never thought I would leave Canada for any reason," says Waters. "The only reason to leave Canada is for cancer treatments that aren't expensive and getting married (laughs). I met a woman a couple years ago, she had a couple younger kids, so it was clear that you either shake hands and move on or go for it, and because I travel a lot I figured I could make a move like that. I don't want to sound like a crybaby, but in order to go all in I had to sell everything to make the move; house, car, the studio I'd built and fought to keep afloat for years. It was a major life change. And I had to surrender my passport to UK immigration, which meant having to postpone the (For The Demented) tour for a year. All these things happened, and then I made it worse by thinking 'I can handle this…' but dealing with all those things in a short period of time and trying to make a record in a new home studio… I was setting myself up for a heart attack."Continue reading BraveWords Interview: ANNIHILATOR – Never Say Never

When agendas go way too far.
From The Independent:
An adult film star who starred in almost 290 movies has died at the age of 23.
August Ames, who was from Nova Scotia in Canada, reportedly died in Camarillo, California on Tuesday morning.
The exact cause of death currently remains unknown but police have said there is no indication of foul play.
The Ventura County Medical Examiner's Office confirmed Ames, whose real name is Mercedes Grabowski, had passed away but did not give a cause.
It is feared Ames may have taken her own life.
Her husband, Kevin Moore, is said to have expressed his sadness and asked for privacy.
He reportedly said: "She was the kindest person I ever knew and she meant the world to me. Please leave this as a private family matter in this difficult time."
Ames was vocal on Twitter about not performing with a man who had shot 'gay porn' because she felt unsafe. It has been reported the industry doesn't do enough to protect performers from HIV so her concerns were not based on hate, but rather on health.
whichever (lady) performer is replacing me tomorrow for @EroticaXNews , you're shooting with a guy who has shot gay porn, just to let cha know. BS is all I can say??♀ Do agents really not care about who they're representing? #ladirect I do my homework for my body?✏?
— August Ames (@AugustAmesxxx) December 3, 2017
Instead of looking at the situation as a health concern though, people attacked her for being a homophobe.
I think it's hilarious that your discriminating against a man who does/did gay porn when half of this industry has performed with such performers.
ALLLLLLL performers must subject to the SAME testing in order to work.
— Alexis Monroe (@AlexisMonroexxx) December 4, 2017
Sorry, it was just my opinion. My body, my rules. Honestly I'm sorry if I offended anyone.
— August Ames (@AugustAmesxxx) December 4, 2017
She tried to apologize.
So youre homophobic?
— how can she SLAPPP? (@y0uh8meLOL) December 3, 2017
Hi August, we're doing a story on you and this tweet. Why is it an issue if you (or any lady) shoots a scene with a guy who has shot gay porn? How does this represent something that agents don't "care about"? And, what does this have to do with "homework" on your body?
— Str8UpGayPorn (@Str8UpGayPorn) December 4, 2017
Talk about a brigade.
— August Ames (@AugustAmesxxx) December 4, 2017
Among other things.
Here is @jaxtonwheeler 's call for @AugustAmesxxx death @Twitter @jack https://t.co/vKUgiG8dmq

Just. Awful.
No words really.
It seems people forget that there are real human beings behind accounts in social media, and for some reason, we've lost our ability to be decent to one another in any regard.
RIP Sweet @AugustAmesxxx. It's horrifying how people are crucifying you in memoriam on this thread. You had every right to do, or not do whatever you wanted with your body. Shame on these haters and trolls for bullying you into taking your own life. It's absolutely disgusting.

Now that the new school year is underway, there are powerful forces at work. The children are embracing their Summer Books & Boxes that were presented by all families at the beginning of the school year. Miniature Fall Family Festivals are happening differently in every classroom. And, the children's ideas for projects and explorations are flowing forth.
We are facilitating each child in pursuing her or his own interests and fascinations, and some are sharing their interests with the others in their learning group, leading to fascinating explorations, research, experiments, and amazing projects.
One preschool learning group is researching dragons, and they are already making their own dragon outfits. One of the first and most desirable steps is making the dragon wings. A lot of wire and paper wrapping is leading to impressive wings that are gradually taking shape each day.
Parents and family members are getting in the flow of responding to weekly plans and volunteering to bring in items to support the initiatives in each classroom. Daily Stories are populating the private website, Connections, and the daily staff observations and photo and note-taking documentation are leading to our comprehensive assessment for each child and the second parent conferences that will be held in the first of the new calendar year. The first parent conferences that were held in September and October were focused on what families wanted for their children during the year and how C5 was going to help that happen.
Extended family members around the world are following their child relatives' daily activities in each classroom as presented on our private Connections website and participating from afar with comments, suggestions, and requests.
Our philosophy and practice of multi-dimensional sharing of information with families about what their children are doing and how they are learning and developing and the families' very involved and organic participation in their own way and in their own time all help to make the fall days at school a very beautiful and productive time.

Militia attack Muslims in Central African Republic's capital
Heavy arms fire and gunshots rang out across the capital of the Central African Republic on Friday as Christian militia forces attacked Muslim neighborhoods, sending residents fleeing.
(Reuters) – A spokesman for the 3,700-strong African Union peacekeeping force, MISCA, said the "anti-balaka" fighters had attacked the PK 5 and Fatima neighborhoods, home to the city's minority Muslim population.
An attack on Bangui by Christian militias in early December sparked a wave of bloody reprisals by the Muslim Seleka fighters who seized power in March. Hundreds of people were killed in the violence, prompting France to send peacekeeping troops to its former colony.
Guy-Simplice Kodegue, a spokesman for the interim government, said the Christian militia forces had tried to reach the center of the riverside capital.
All economic and social activity had stopped as panicked residents fled, he told Reuters.

Your Holiday Claims have helped a holidaymaker from Warwickshire claim £7,500 in holiday illness compensation after a severe bout of gastroenteritis left him battling long term illness.
Our client and his wife travelled to Sharm El Sheikh in June 2013 for a 9 night all-inclusive stay at the Royal Albatross Moderna, provided by tour operator Thomas Cook.
The couple had visited Sharm El Sheikh a number of times and looked forward to a luxury stay at Royal Albatross Moderna to celebrate their seventh wedding anniversary in the Egyptian sunshine.
Upon arrival, our client and his wife were disappointed to find that standards of hygiene were noticeably poor and recalled their concern at leftover food items being recycled for the next day.
In fact just five days after the arrival at the resort our client began to experience symptoms of gastroenteritis, a severe gastric condition which continued to plague his long term health.
The first indicators of illness were abdominal cramps and sickness. These were followed quickly in the coming days by profuse diarrhoea which left our client confined to his room.
On the advice of the Thomas Cook representative, the wife of our client was directed to the onsite Pharmacy where she was provided with antibiotics to remedy her husbands condition.
Our client and his wife returned from their ill-fated stay in Sharm El Sheikh four days later but unfortunately this was not the end of our clients episode of poor health.
In the coming days our client was to endure almost 200 separate bouts of diarrhoea and has continued to suffer since although his symptoms are slowly improving.
£7,500 successfully claimed by solicitors for victim
With the help of Your Holiday Claims, our client from Warwickshire has now secured £7,500 in gastroenteritis on holiday compensation from tour operator Thomas Cook. You can read more on how our legal experts can help you make a gastroenteritis claim here.
Holiday claims expert and Head of Travel Law at Your Holiday Claims, Anne Thomson, commented:
âThis particular case is certainly one of the most troubling I have come across and I would not wish for any holidaymaker to endure such a dreadful and long spanning illness.
âMyself and the team at Your Holiday Claims are very happy to have helped our client secure his settlement and wish both him and his wife many happy and incident free holidays in the future.
Our client added: âMy wife and I have been very happy with the personal and professional service we have received from Your Holiday Claims. Thanks again Anne, youre one in a million!"
