"VIEW from the BRIDGE"
By Muncie
It is Monday afternoon, November 14, 2011, and we just returned from Great Falls. It does not concern anyone in Fort Benton but I felt that because we just celebrated Veterans Day, it had a story that I wanted to tell. There is a slight reference to Fort Benton as Matt Patrias (Nancy LaChappell's husband,) told us about the event last Friday at the Veteran's dinner and he transported us to Great Falls.
A Corpsman, who is an Associate Member of the Marine Corps League 688, received a Purple Heart. Wally actually inducted him into the League. Senator John Tester presented the award and six other ribbons to Marvin "Doc" Brewster. It was long overdue. Doc had actually received the Purple Heart 50 years ago BUT it was never recorded. Therefore, he did not receive the benefits that were due him. He was wounded in Vietnam.
Doc pursued his benefits when he was diagnosed with lung cancer a few months ago. He is undergoing chemo at Fort Harrison in Helena and radiation in Great Falls. The doctors have determined that his cancer was caused by Agent Orange. This illness was quite a price to pay for his country.
It was a very impressive ceremony and I am sure that a few of you saw some of the proceedings on Channel 3 and Channel 5 Monday evening. It was an honor to be at the V.F.W. in Great Falls with many of Doc's friends and fellow Marine League members. We wish him a quick recovery and a long prosperous life.
Another reason for writing this story is to spread the word about Veterans Benefits. I have already talked with people who are going to check their records, as they had no idea to what they were entitled. Our Country (we the people,) owes so much to these Veterans. We owe them our lives and all the benefits that we enjoy today. Say thank you to every veteran that you meet. Just that simple phrase, "Thank you for what you have done (or are doing)" means so much.
The Veterans Administration sends a representative to Fort Benton on a regular schedule, (once a month I believe.) Check your River Press, as there is always an article about the visit. If you have any doubt about what you should have received…check it out. Good luck. Be patient because it took Doc 2 ½ years to get what he received today.
I often wonder how far the wreath, that is thrown from the Old Bridge each Memorial Day morning, travels. Does anyone know or does anyone else ever wonder? I called several V.F.W. members and they had asked this question many times. They never had an answer.
Perhaps next year we can find out how swiftly the river is flowing, how far it is to Loma via the river, and estimate the time the wreath would get to the Loma Bridge. Then we have to find a volunteer to take up a watch to see if it gets that far. In the meanwhile, if anyone has ever seen the wreath, fess up. Give me a call…I am in the book.
Again, this Veterans Day, an excellent dinner was put on by the V.F.W. and the American Legion of Fort Benton on Friday evening. They did a tremendous amount of work putting together the dinner, decorations, and servers.
The dinner is quite a tradition now and thoroughly enjoyed by all that attended. It added so much to our community spirit. It is something to look forward to, as there are many old friends in attendance. Of course, there are many new faces and I would like to see the newcomers introduced and a description of their service. It is difficult to talk to more than the people sitting immediately around you. However, no matter what the situation is…they all served their country without hesitation.
The hanging of the photos was completed on Thursday afternoon. I had Chandee Bomgardner and two of her youngsters, Bailey and Jordee as helpmates. They volunteered at Woman's Club after they had put in a days work making the lunch for the club. If you want a job done ask a busy person and that is Chandee.
We had a problem with not knowing what war the Veterans were involved. We have hung the photos under a sign that signifies all the wars starting with the Civil War. World War II has more photos so far, than any of the others.
If there are any errors…there is a notebook close by on a lamp table. Kindly write what the problem is, sign your name, and phone number. For instance, if the photo is under the wrong war, the name is misspelled, the rank is incorrect, or the photo is not there at all…it will be corrected as soon as possible. However, it may take some time because we will have to accumulate all the corrections before the gold labels can be reprinted.
We have heard some favorable comments about the project and the location of it. The Sunrise Bluffs is open at 8:00 a.m. and the doors are locked at 10:00 p.m. Other locations did not fit the criteria. The Club House is a Sports Bar…not a Vet's Club. The V.F.W. merely has their meetings there. The Library has meeting room downstairs that has great walls but it is kept locked. It would have been inconvenient to have to unlock the door each time a visitor would like to view the photos. The Sunrise Bluffs seemed the logical place to hang the photos. You will have to go there to view the set-up and leave your comments. It is not inconvenient to visit there and it is a beautiful walk/drive along the Missouri.
We are now working on the bios. They are so informative and so interesting to read. Did you know that Chouteau County drafted twice as many recruits than anywhere else? The reason being, the Draft Board goofed and doubled the number to be drafted. There is proof of draft records at the Overholser Research Center as there is a file on the wars.
I will start listing those photos that have no bios or incomplete ones. Watch for the names and perhaps somewhere…somehow…we can get a connection to that Veteran. Watch your River Press for the list.
I thought I wanted a career. Turns out, I just wanted paychecks.
Well, we cannot deny winter any longer. It is snowing in Fort Benton at this moment Monday evening. We traveled the Highwood way to Great Falls this morning and it was snowing in that area. It ended soon afterward but started again as we reached the V.F.W. on 10th Ave. S. I am not complaining, mind you, just writing it to keep track with View dates and on my calendar. I am going to enjoy this winter because it gives opportunities for great photos of snow weighing down tree branches like a cave. I would not want to miss those snow piles on the east side of Front Street especially the one at the Grand Union parking lot. They look like mountains. I would not want to miss the Missouri freezing over and then watching it thaw out. Awesome winter! Come and go quickly won't you.

In June, Betty and I were privileged to visit La Ceiba, Honduras.
We visited a local hospital which is in need of many things. We are grateful for the work that is being done by several organizations, churches, and individuals. Connect Global is building a Maternity Home in La Ceiba for the sweet mothers who currently have no place to rest before or after they give birth.
Betty Moffitt was able to bring over 100lbs of Medical Supplies to the Regional Hospital Atlantida in La Ceiba Honduras
Johnny and Betty's Grandsons, Wade and Peter, donated the medical supplies from their personal supply.
We delivered bandages, syringes, medications, vials, and a host of other basic, but vital supplies.
It was great to see the vision of the Hospital Staff, as well as the commitment my son, Travis Moffitt, along with his ministry Partner, Javier Mendoza have both made to help the mothers and newborns of Honduras through their organization, Connect Global.
We are very excited about our upcoming trip to Cuba in May. We are so glad to have an amazing team of teachers, pastors, and missionaries coming with us. We are especially happy to have such a wonderful group. of supporters and financial partners here who are sending us to share the good news. stay tuned for updates.
Thank you for your relationship and support.

Title: Model Misfit (Geek Girl #2)
Author: Holly Smale
Rating: ★★★ 1/2
Synopsis: Harriet knows that modelling won't transform you. She knows that being as uniquely odd as a polar bear isn't necessarily a bad thing (even in a rainforest). And that the average person eats a ton of food a year, though her pregnant stepmother is doing her best to beat this.
What Harriet doesn't know is where she's going to fit in once the new baby arrives.
With summer plans ruined, modelling in Japan seems the perfect chance to get as far away from home as possible. But nothing can prepare Harriet for the craziness of Tokyo, her competitive model flatmates and her errant grandmother's 'chaperoning'. Or seeing gorgeous Nick everywhere she goes.
Because, this time, Harriet knows what a broken heart feels like.
Huge thank you to the publisher for sending me an advanced copy of this book!
River's Review:
I will admit that I probably wouldn't have picked this book up if Harper hadn't sent a copy to me. I do have the first book, but I haven't read it and wasn't really planning on it… but after some asking around I found out that I don't HAVE to read the books in order so I put this back up towards the top of my TBR and got to it.
Oh did I mention that this book takes place in Japan? Yes, another reason that I picked it up as soon as I did. I feel like it's my duty to read 'white-girl-goes-to-Japan' books to determine if they're accurate or not.
Surprisingly this book was really well done in that aspect! And I'll get into that in a second.
This book is about Harriett's continued journey of being an unconventional teen model. As I said, I haven't read the first book, but I can assume that she was this super geek-y math/science/physics loving girl that got accidentally discovered and due to her uniqueness she shone as a model and got a modeling contract. She's much like that in this book anyway. Harriett loves, and knows!, a lot of facts. A LOT of them. So many that it got to be a little annoying that every. single. chapter. started with one. I wish it would have been a little more random. I mean, I guess I learned a lot, but it was getting predictable and a little monotonous.
Anyway, Harriett is upset about her boyfriend, Nick, stepping out of the picture, and about her BFF going away for the summer. So when she's offered the opportunity to go to Tokyo for the summer for a modeling job, she jumps right on it! Harriett is young, fifteen, and has to convince her parents (who were SO hilarious, I loved them!) to let her go. In steps her eccentric grandmother and off they go!
So I have yet to find a book about a white girl going to Asia that I don't have some small problem with. I have found one that I didn't DESPISE and I will now add this one to the list. I did nitpick while reading (see my updates) but overall this was very accurate and on point for a book about a girl going there as a tourist. And I think that because Harriett wasn't moving there and living there that the surface observations and the tourist-y picture of Japan didn't bother me. Yes I was annoyed that some of the Japanese was romanized wrong, yes I was annoyed that the white-girl-goes-to-Asia-can't-us-chopsticks trope was used AGAIN, and that some of the ~weird Japan~ stuff was a little eye-rolling but overall it was very good. And made me homesick for Japan. But the tourist picture of Tokyo, Harajuku, Shibuya, and even Mount Fuji all worked for me. Nothing was over exaggerated (well, okay, Shibuya crossing was), or wrong. And this pleased me so much. Because whenever an author writes about a culture not their own they are teaching about that culture and it makes me SO angry when they teach things that are just plain wrong.
The story itself was nothing amazing. But it was cute and Harriett's misfortunes and mistrals were entertaining. I actually did a little modeling in Japan while I was living there (nothing like this! More freelance armature stuff) so I really enjoyed the peek into the modeling world.
Harriett herself was a little frustrating at times because she was just so oblivious to a lot of things. I know, she's only fifteen, but still, sometimes I wanted to shake her and be like JUST LISTEN!!!
Overall this book is very fun, a quick read, and highly enjoyable. If you're already a fan of the series then you'll surely like this! And if you're just interested in this one (like I was) then read it without worrying about if you need to read the first one or not. Just enjoy!

Currency Exchange New Westminster
New Westminster is a great place to live, but we all need a vacation every now and then. For that vacation, you'll want to find reliable provider of currency exchange in New Westminster. Don't fall into the trap of believing the bank is the only way to exchange currency, there are a variety of independent and franchised brokers that can help you out. At Knightsbridge Foreign Exchange, we aim to give customers an easy and convenient way to exchange their currency, along with the best currency exchange rates in New Westminster.
If you're looking for providers of currency exchange in New Westminster, there are a variety of options out there for you. These options include independent brokers, franchise brokers and all the major Canadian banks. In deciding which option is for you, everyone has their own personal checklist of what they want from their provider. If getting the best USD exchange rates in New Westminster or the best foreign money exchange rates in New Westminster, then the easiest route would be with Knightsbridge Foreign Exchange. Not everyone is comfortable with independent providers, as there some out there who aren't always the most trustworthy, but with Knightsbridge FX not only do you get an easy, convenient and secure way to exchange your currency, you also get the best currency exchange rates in New Westminster.
From New Westminster, the nearest airport would be Vancouver International Airport. If you have a trip coming up, you might think to yourself the best option is to just get it at the airport, as you have to go there anyway. That may sound good, but if you want the best currency exchange rates in New Westminster, then we highly suggest you get it before then. Rent is even higher for retailers at the airport than your typical mall or store rate, and that generally means you won't find the best foreign money exchange rates in New Westminster or the best USD exchange rates in New Westminster as they have to markup their rates to compensate. They generally rely on last-minute customers (or those who want the convenience of it) to get their sales, despite the higher than average exchange rates.
When for different providers of currency exchange in New Westminster, you'll find other options besides retail stores and banks. Often you can find smaller, public kiosks in highly active public areas like shopping centres, high-volume tourist locations and hotels! If you find one of these kiosks it's important to note that like the retail stores, they have rent and other expenses from being a physical location, which they likely won't offer the best USD exchange rates in New Westminster of the beest foreign money exchange rates in New Westminster as they have to markup their rates. If any broker you don't know does offer the best currency exchange rates in New Westminster, it's important to do some research and make sure you can trust them. One of the first signs is if they don't require indentification, as that means they're breaking Canadian government regulations and aren't a company to trust.
When it comes to the provider of currency exchange in New Westminster that gets the most traffic, banks would be the number one provider. Some may take this to mean they're the best option or has the best currency exchange rates in New Westminster, but the opposite would be true. Banks know they are the default option for a lot of customers, and they take advantage of that knowledge by marking up their rates by as much as 3% to increase their profit margins. This is a large difference, that clearly shows they don't have the best USD exchange rates in New Westminster or the best foreign money exchange rates in New Westminster.
With so many options out there for currency exchange in New Westminster, brokers are always trying to devise a plan to get as many customers over the them as possible. Three of those main ways are by offering delayed or installed payment plans, decreasing rates as you increase exchange amounts, and by doing all they can to lower their expenses, so they can try and offer the best currency exchange rates in New Westminster. At Knightsbridge Foreign Exchange, we've committed to an easy and convenient method, and offering the best foreign money exchange rates in New Westminster and the best USD exchange rates in New Westminster. We operate online and with electronic funds to keep our costs as low as possible, allowing us to pass the savings on to you!

It's because we know that our customers save an average of 1-2% with us, versus the leading Canadian banks and brokers. For exchanges of $100,000, that's a $2,000 savings! If you need to see it for yourself, we ask you to call your local bank for an exchange, then simply call us after for a rate on the same currency. We're certain we'll have the best foreign money exchange rates in New Westminster or the best USD exchange rates in Westminster. Call now and see for yourself!

Nostalgia's empty promise
This is a generation that is lonely and seemingly hopeless. Consider these statistics: antidepressant prescriptions have gone up 400% in a little over 20 years. According to PEW, Millennials are the least likely, of every generation in the history of PEW's polling, to be connected or committed to traditionally anchoring institutions: marriage, religion, and civic. The contents of medicine cabinets are obvious enough, but I see the symptoms in a few unexpected places as well: 1) hipster fashion's nostalgia for the 1950s–60s outdoorsmen, and 2) changes in urban design.
Each gives us subtle insights into a generation's abandonment of the American Dream and a longing for authenticity. Because the American Dream couldn't deliver on its promise, there seems to be a desire to capture an idealized rugged individualism, as if nostalgia could change hearts or heal wounds.
Just pick up an Urban Outfitters catalog or look at people's tumblrs. There is a decidedly '50s–60s outdoorsy Americana tone to it, fromscruffy lumberjack hipsters to more clean-cut, Mad Men-inspired fashions.
Malls of authenticity
I'm a pastor in southern California, an area known for its materialism and consumption. Interestingly I also see this same kind of longing for authenticity in urban design at South Coast Plaza. Projected to hit $1.5 billion in sales in 2012, SCP is the country's largest mall in terms of sales. It's even officially trademarked as "The Ultimate Shopping Resort," almost cementing its place as a monolith to the consumption and materialism of the American Dream.
Here's where the idea of "authenticity" comes in. In 1994, as the Gen Xers came of age, the LAB was built a mile down the road from South Coast Plaza. Billed as "The Antimall," the LAB was urban in feel, compared to the polished marble of SCP, and featured used clothing stores instead of Versace. Then the next generation came along. This meant another shopping center, and across the street from the LAB came the CAMP. Instead of being urban in theme, the CAMP is desert-themed: dry grasses, low succulents, and Airstream trailers. Here's the CAMP's mission statement from their website: "[The CAMP is an] innovative retail campus dedicated to an active, healthy lifestyle mindful of environmentalism and supportive of the local community."
Do you see the progression?
- The Ultimate Shopping Resort → conspicuous consumption
- The Antimall → "rebellion" against boomer consumerism
- The CAMP → authentic, healthy, caring lifestyle
Maybe you don't have the above-mentioned kind of microcosm in your city, but you've likely seen that kind of shift in your people. No matter what the cultural expression is—consumer, rebel, or socially conscious and authentic—people always find their identities in what they buy (or don't buy) and do (or don't' do). Sadder still is, whatever the identity, each will always fail.
If the American Dream can't deliver happiness and you can't go to the mall, desert, or back in time to the '60s for some relief, what do you do? For some, they go to church. Even in the church though, many simply affirm the Millennial's values of authenticity, environmental concerns, and community evolvement while attacking the consumption and political involvement of their parents. Here's where I call bull.
Ambiguous authenticity
Yes, Millennials value authenticity, but we have no idea how to be authentic. Just look at the social media habits. We spend the majority of our days adjusting our image online for our friends rather than being known by them. We text instead of have verbal conversations. As we saw above, we base our identities on the same things our parents did.
Yes, Millennials value being environmentally conscious. On the surface, this may be "better" than our boomer parents' consumption, but while we might value creation, we don't value the Creator God. Again, we're in the same boat: consumption vs creation, but whatever worldview you choose, it's still a counterfeit to worship of God.
The fashion is different, but it's still the same. One again, people always find their identities in what they buy (or don't buy) and do (or don't do).
An authentic identity in Christ
Until Millennials come to trust Jesus, they will live life like Facebook: confusing connection for intimacy, and a self-edited presentation of themselves online for really being known. Until then, they will continue to confuse recycling for justification, simple living for sanctification, and gardening for the in-breaking of God's kingdom.
Pastors and readers, Millennials need the gospel of Jesus Christ. Only when they understand the depth of their sin in view of the greatness of God's love and the tremendous truth that through the cross of Jesus Christ their identity is now in Christ can they actually be authentic.
Only in knowing Jesus can we be fully authentic. Only when we are loved as we are, are we then freed up to love others without hiding behind a status update or the best version of ourselves on Instagram. Only Christ's gospel can cure the hopelessness and aimlessness because, when you know who you are in Christ, you know what to do—and no resurgent love for a time period or active lifestyle can deliver that.

Around 38 years after first starting out with iconic Kiwi post-punk band Blam Blam Blam Don McGlashan is still writing songs that are classics.
Songs that manage to sum up the quintessential feel of what it is like to be human, songs that strike a chord with many and make them think.
It's taken McGlashan a little bit by surprise that he's still producing so much music that still has so much resonance to New Zealanders.
McGlashan is starting his Free Flight NZ tour in Whangārei at the Butter Factory on Thursday, then at Leigh Sawmill on Friday, September 14.
The tour was supposed to be 17 dates, but several have already sold out and he's had to add four more, including a free concert in Kaikōura to give the quake-ravaged locals some entertainment.
"There was a gap in the South Island tour, so I thought the good people of Kaikōura might like a free gig. They've had a hard time lately, and I want to show them some support," McGlashan said.
"Tom Dalton, my manager, made some calls, and it all looks like it's going to happen. It'll be a blast. I haven't played Kaikōura since the Blams I think."
He's a bit taken aback by the interest, but he shouldn't be, after all, he's responsible for some of the country's most iconic songs, whether with the Blams (including Don't Fight it, Marsha, It's Bigger Than Both Of Us that won Song of the Year in the 1982 NZ Recording Industry Awards) the Front Lawn (their 1987 record Songs From The Front Lawn won three New Zealand Music Awards) and with The Mutton Birds (anthems including Anchor Me - APRA Silver Scroll winner 1994, Dominion Road White Valiant (1992) and their iconic cover of The Formyula's Nature (1992).
The Mutton Birds' Lucky Stars (released 2015) charted in the top 5 of the NZ Album Chart and saw an overwhelming number of rave reviews in both New Zealand and Australia.
McGlashan said the upcoming gigs would feature a few songs from Lucky Stars, but there'll be a broad cross section of his classic hits as well.
He decided to start the tour in Northland as a bit of departure from the norm.
"I usually start at the bottom and work my way up, but this time I thought I'd do it the other way round. I actually wanted to do more gigs in Northland but couldn't really so I'll make sure there's plenty in the ones I do up there to keep people happy."
Keeping them happy shouldn't be too difficult as just a few bars of many of his songs will have people up, smiling and dancing.
I ask him if he ever thought when he first started out all those years ago that he'd become such an iconic Kiwi songwriter and would still be making a living 38 years later?
"Wow, that's nearly 40 years ago! That's a good question. I've really had two different sides to me. There's the part of me that says this is what I'm going to do for ever, I love it.
But there's also the part that says that's just not realistic full stop, so I've always been conflicted.
"My dad wanted me to be a civil engineer and my mum wanted me to be a doctor. But at one stage early on my mum said 'yeah, you make many people happy through music so never mind.
"Her thought was that it connected with people and that's really good to know."
McGlashan said he doesn't set out to write such quintessential songs, but just wants to tell a story of a particular time or particular place. It helps that other people connect to the lyrics and the songs become part of the social fabric of the country.
So where do these songs, that so capture New Zealandness come from?
"I write to catch whatever I'm feeling or experiencing, whether it be about that beach or particular road [Dominion] or car or person. Then trying to get it to fit into that verse/chorus structure and see what come out of the other end. And then you hope it resonates with others and they see the same things as you through the song.
"I've written songs about what it's like to live in London and other places, but it's the place that you grow up in and had your childhood, that's the place you will remember and experience the most clearly. I love it when people tell me there's a lot of things that click with them in what I write. I'm not trying to do that. I'm just trying to describe what I've experienced."
And those experiences seem to make a real connection with others.
We finish with me asking McGlashan to tell me something he'd never revealed in an interview before.
"Oh. Mmmmm. McDonald's! McDonald's wanted to use one of my songs Pulled Along By Love in an ad. So we had a whole family meeting about it, which would make the decision whether to go with. But the family could see how miserable it would make me, despite how much it might make me, so we decided not to do it.
"Do I regret it? I don't regret it at all."
■ Don McGlashan plays at The Butter Factory, in Whangārei, on Thursday September 13, then Leigh Sawmill Cafe the following night. Tickets for both shows are still available at edition time.

If what they say is true. That you only feel as good as you look. I propose we all enter 2016 on a stylishly high note. I give you, one of my favorite pieces. It is Gatsby meets New Year's Eve Outfit Ideas.I found this dress back home in New York at the Queens Center Mall. It was in one of those stores where everything looks good if you have fun in mind. To me, there is nothing more fun than a surprise. And this dress embodies surprises. Although I wore this dress to the Weeknd concert at the Verizon Center in Washington, DC, I thought this would be the perfect inspiration for mesmerizing New Year's Eve Outfit Ideas.
For someone who loves exactness on the job, in grad school, and in life in general, I took a chance. I dared to wear uneven levels of everything. Tricolor chain earrings that are longer than my mane. A missing back. And a hemline that disappears like a skyline into the New York morning fog.
From its deep gold embellishments to the racy back cutout. This work of art ends up being the opposite of the Mona Lisa. And instead of its eyes following you around the room, all eyes in the room will be on the dress.
I love how intense and clean this design is. It calls for just a few complimentary jewels. It doesn't need much else. Just like a bold female who is a "one woman show" this dress is the star of the drama.
While experimenting was fun, I couldn't help but match the dip in my back with a dipped pair of booties. These booties started out as a "want" but they turned into a "need". They trot everywhere – to the office, to the airport, to the date nights, and back!
Completing the idea that you should only show a little leg or a little cleavage, this dress pushes the boundaries while staying with traditional fashion rules. While it is true that many rules are meant to be broken, more often than not, most are better off sticking with what works. I love trying new things but there is also something to be said about something that is "your thing." As you dress yourself this New Year's Eve, be you. Be your best you. Sparkle a little and celebrate a lot.
I hope you enjoyed feasting your eyes on one of my New Year's Eve Outfit Ideas as much as I enjoyed wearing the look. Click here to see how I wore an LBD for a celebration with family and loved ones last New Year's Eve.
Here are metallic dresses I curated just for you, for any occasion.

The Aarhus Convention requires that its parties make available to the public procedures that "provide adequate and effective remedies, including injunctive relief as appropriate, and [are] fair, equitable, timely and not prohibitively expensive." In order to meet this requirement, it is imperative that procedures provide a means to actually prevent environmental harm. Unfortunately, there are numerous examples of court decisions that are victories for environmental protection on paper but defeats in practice because of an inability to stop the damaging activity while the case was being considered. Once environmental damage occurs, it is often irreversible.
This study summarizes remedies in environmental matters in thirty parties to the Aarhus Convention, as of 2011. It briefly outlines the administrative and judicial procedures in each country and describes the available procedural remedies. It then offers conclusions and raises issues for further inquiry. This study does not include the EECCA countries, which are being separately studied by others, or many of the Balkan countries, about which little secondary material was available.
This study was commissioned by and presented to the Aarhus Convention Task Force on Access to Justice.

Plantain Wraps
This is my very most popular recipe from my previous blog: Simple and Merry. And it is truly a simple and merry recipe.
Gluten free. Grain free. Dairy free. Egg free. Paleo. Vegan. Pliable, flexible, yum. Possibly my greatest recipe.
This recipe works for pizza, focaccia, wraps, you name it.
It does have its limitations, however! It isn't super great cold. It is so much better warm. 🙂
Plantain Wraps
- 3 green plantains, peeled and chopped (about 4 cups of chopped plantains)
- 1 cup water
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- Place all ingredients in a high speed blender (like a Vita Mix).
- Turn on high, pressing the tamper as needed, until it is a super smooth paste.
- For square wraps: Spread paste on a parchment lined 17"x11" sheet pan. If your pan is smaller, use two pans. (If you spread it too thick, it can get goopy.) Some like it goopy, you can experiment to your taste. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes, then cut into 6 or 8 pieces. Fill as desired.
- For round wraps: spread into small, thin circles on a parchment lined sheet pan. Bake at 375. The amount of time will depend on the size, but you will want it to be slightly browned, but still pliable.
- For focaccia: spread paste on parchment lined sheet tray similar to square wraps - but drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle onions, garlic, mushrooms, olives, sea salt, etc... and bake at 375 for 30 minutes.
- For pizza: prepare like square wraps, and after you take it out of the oven, flip the crust over onto another piece of parchment so the sticky side is up. Put your sauce and toppings on the sticky side, then bake for another 20 minutes in the oven.
- Enjoy!

Ring a ding ding!
So yesterday I posted on Instagram that it was five years to the day that my husband and I had our first date. Now this post is not about how we fell in love, i'm not trying to make you gag! And I sort of dislike that term anyway.
Now five years down the line, we are married with two very strong willed beautiful girls. If he told me how our life was going to play out on our first date, I would have told him to get on his non-existent bike (I must add that I am very blessed because we have health, food and a home to live in, so I'm not complaining).
No, this post is about the fact my husband does not wear his wedding ring and I ask you whether or not your husband wears his ring and if he doesn't, do you care??? Now I am half Peruvian but I should have lied to him and said I was half Argentinian like Michael Bublè's wife and made him wear an engagement ring when he popped the question.
Now in my husband's defence he isn't and never has been a jewellery wearer type of guy and I know some of you will be saying, you silly cow, put your foot down and make him wear it. However I will be honest, MOST of the time I do not care! Seriously! And I will be honest again and say that I have had two very loud conversations with him about the fact I would like him to wear it. Those two times were when I was in my last week of pregnancy with my second daughter and the other time was when I had no sleep for 3 days. But does that mean it gets to me deep down?
Now it could be my famous last words (if he went off with Jessica Alba - I would probably forgive him) but this man is ridiculously loyal and for me its not about him wearing it to show other women he is married but more for the symbol it represents and the vow we took before God. I know the generation before or the generation before that, most men didn't wear their wedding ring but did their wives want them to? Did my Grandmother want my Grandpa to wear his ring? And are we in a time that it is just expected? Do you wear yours all the time? If you don't, does your husband have a problem with that?
Someone very close to me once told me that in her particular job, women told her that they're attracted to men with a wedding ring on their finger because they see it as a challenge! How horrendous is that? In some cases does it matter whether they wear it or not because they can always take it off? Whether or not Jay Z ever cheated on Beyoncé, just that song and the line, 'Becky with the good hair' is always going to make you doubt and think he is an ASS!
Does it really matter? Or is it a true sign of love? If so - i'm going to kick my husband's ass!

Alternative Advent Calendars
We love Christmas here at Liverpool ONE. Trees, fairy lights, presents, and of course, advent calendars. No Christmas is complete without one, the thrill of counting down to Christmas while enjoying some delicious chocolate is a pretty great idea but an even better one is 'alternative' advent calendars. Think beauty, alcohol and luxury treats behind each door.

French National Assembly Chairman Richard Ferrand's office said today that Fei Hong was formally investigated yesterday because of improper financial treatment.
Fei Hong's office stated that Fei Hong denied any illegality and would defend himself through the procedure. I am confident that the case will be revoked.
Fei Hong was formally investigated after he was interviewed earlier. Since Fei Hong was a close ally of President Emmanuel Macron, he was formally investigated, which may make Mark Hong quite embarrassing, and may also let Mark Hong say to clear it. The promise of French politics was examined again.
According to French law, a formal investigation means that there is "significant or consistent evidence" pointing to possible involvement in the crime.
This is a step toward trial, but many investigations will be withdrawn at the end and will not go to court.
The French prosecutor's previous investigation of Feihong's financial treatment was withdrawn at the end of 2017, during which Feihong resigned as minister.
Now Fei Hong is a member of parliament and leads the party of Mark Hong in the House of Commons. The latest investigation is similar to his previous case and is related to his management of a health insurance company in Brittany.

Radymno in Poland. They helped me in the gas station to write a sign for hitch-hiking and an old couple gave me a lift. The man paid for me the bus to the border. In the checking control, the man played on my guitar and to cross the border was quite fast.
After walking a bit, i hitch-hiked and a man from Poland who hitch-hiked too paid for me the bus to Lviv. I met my host Serge there.

If Andre Villas-Boas was under any illusion about expectation levels, Chelsea fans gave him a reminder after just 45 minutes.
Being booed off at half time was hardly the reception the new Chelsea boss would have wanted for his first game in charge at Stamford Bridge.
But Villas-Boas accepts that coming second is not an option. Carlo Ancelotti was sacked for finishing as a runner-up just a year after winning the Double.
He has to work miracles with an ageing squad which looks unbalanced and in need of major investment.
Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich recognises that and Valencia winger Juan Mata cannot arrive soon enough to give width to the attack. Another target, Spurs playmaker Luka Modric, would be a perfect fit.
The current Chelsea side is too similar to last season. The same deficiencies, with Jose Bosingwa unable to defend, Alex unsteady, lack of creativity and little support for Fernando Torres.
No wonder fans showed their frustrations, even if it did seem harsh so early into a new manager's reign.
But Villas-Boas said: "It is normal. Last year I was whistled at Porto and the season ended with four trophies and no more boos. It's just a natural reaction from a demanding public. It's nothing new.
"What I would say is that you put your opponents under pressure by raising your voices and supporting your team.
"The anxiety and demands of the public regarding what happened last year and the demands that they want from this year. We want to respond to those demands and we want to be champions.
"In our game we need support and tranquillity. We suffered a goal in the fourth minute and people need to be behind us all the time. I think the mental transformation from the players plus their talent was decisive in this result."
Despite working under Jose Mourinho, Villas-Boas has been anxious to stop any comparisons to the Special One.
But Mourinho set the standard at Chelsea and Villas-Boas has to work under that pressure and there are clear similarities between the pair. Self belief, direct, single-minded and, above all, ruthless.
Chelsea were given an almighty shock after four minutes. Ramires played Alex into trouble, the Brazilian centre half dithered and Shane Long pounced to give West Brom the lead.
The old problems came back to haunt Chelsea. Lopsided in midfield, unbalanced in attack with strikers trying to play as wide men, Chelsea could not find a way through West Brom's resilient and well-organised defence.
So, in true Mourinho fashion, Villas-Boas hooked Salomon Kalou, who was running around like a headless chicken, after just 35 minutes and sent on Florent Malouda. Villas-Boas changed the system, Nicolas Anelka was pushed further forward.
Chelsea looked much better after the break and it was Anelka who played a major part in the revival. His run and 53rd-minute shot deflected off West Brom defender Jonas Olsson to give them an equaliser.
Bosingwa looked vulnerable defensively but strong going forward. His run and cross in the 83rd minute set up Malouda to score at the back post. Then the Chelsea jeers turned to cheers.
It was a winning start at Stamford Bridge for Villas-Boas even if it was clear he went through torture. You could see him animated on the touchline, pointing, shouting and kicking every imaginary ball.
"It's because of my age, I think," said the 33-year-old. "But it's not me who dictates what happens. It's their talent and technical ability. In the end the game is solved by them, not me.
"But I think the first games in the Premiership are very difficult for the top teams. You have seen what has happened.
"Man United found it difficult to win against West Brom and now they play against Tottenham.
"Manchester City cruised past Swansea but in the first-half they had their own difficulties and they could not find the spaces to score.
So I think this is the nature of the Premiership in the first games of the season."
So, there are no easy games in the Premier League.
It looks like Villas-Boas has made himself at home already.
AVB begs Chelsea fans not to boo at the Bridge

Adam LaBrie, Thomas
(Jr., F - Yarmouth, Maine)

(So., D - Farmington, Maine)
Backus was an anchor for Maine Maritime's back line in the 2-0 victory over the University of New England on Friday, the win was MMA's first win over the Nor'easters since 2011. Backus was part of a defense that only allowed nine shots.
Joseph Holloway, Johnson

UMaine-Farmington went 1-0 on the week beating Rivier 1-0 at home on Saturday.
Green Mountain opened its season with a 3-0 loss to Yeshiva on Sunday. The Eagles kept the visitors within striking distance at 1-0 through 70 minutes, but ran out of steam in the last twenty giving up two late goals. Griffin Shelor performed well in net making 14 saves. The Eagles will head to Bard for its next game on Saturday at 2:00 p.m.
Husson lost the lone game of the weekend 1-0 to St. Joseph's (Maine). Cody Gross was the bright spot with three saves.
Johnson (2-0, 0-0 NAC) picked up two wins on the opening weekend. In their season opener on Friday, the Badgers defeated Vermont Tech 5-2 and ended the weekend with a 7-0 victory over UMaine-Presque Isle on Sunday. Freshman Joe Holloway led the Badgers with four goals and an assist in his first two collegiate games. The Badgers will travel to Massachusetts this weekends for games against Wheelock on Saturday and Curry on Sunday.
Lyndon will open the season at home against Vermont Tech on Wednesday.

Maine Maritime travels to Colby on Tuesday night before heading to New York for two games on Saturday and Sunday.
New England College was in action twice this week, opening the season with a 1-1 double-overtime tie at Mitchell and then claiming a 3-2 victory over Plymouth State on Sunday in the rain. Michael Skarbelis (North Andover, Mass.) had two goals and an assist on the week, while Robbie Ferguson (Hopkinton, N.H.) picked up his first collegiate win in net with five saves. The Pilgrims host Nichols on Saturday at 12:00 p.m.
Thomas finished the week 2-0 as the Terriers outscored their opponents 14-1. On Friday, they opened with an 8-1 victory over Unity as junior Adam LaBrie completed the hat trick in the first half. The offense continued on Sunday as seven different scorers led the team to a 7-0 win over Fisher (Mass.). The Terriers will face a big test on Thursday, September 7, as they travel to Endicott.

Plan Your Trip On the Timber Trail
Getting There And Around
The Timber Trail Lodge is situated at Piropiro, the half way point of the trail, and accessed by road via Waimiha (click here for directions).
As this road to the lodge is partially gravel and slow-going for drivers who haven't travelled that way before, we recommend that the best option is to drive to Ongarue at the end of the trail and park your car in the secure carpark there. This way it is ready and waiting for you when you finish your ride.
Then, if you are staying on our all inclusive two-night package, we will make all shuttle and bag transfer arrangements for you, getting you from Ongarue to the lodge on your first night, to Pureora the morning of your first day of riding, and your bags back to Ongarue while you are on your second day of riding.
Alternatively, if you are staying for one night, or want to structure things a bit differently, we can recommend a number of shuttle operators providing these services who you can organise this through.

Clothing & Gear For The Ride
We suggest your gear list includes:
- Comfortable riding clothing. A shirt of breathable fabric and padded shorts are a good idea
- Extra warm clothing, either wool or polypropylene, including hat, gloves, long sleeved jumper and tights
- A windproof rain jacket, suitable for riding in
- Extra clothing and soft comfortable shoes for in and around the lodge
- Helmet
- Cycling shoes or trainers
- Adequate water of 1-2 litres per person
- Food, including lunch of not included in your room rate, snacks, extra for emergencies (note we do not have self-catering kitchen facilities)
- First aid kit (per group)
- Emergency thermal blanket (per group)
- Possibly a Personal Locator Beacon (PLB)
- Sunscreen
- Camera
- Bike repair gear, including pump, spare tube, puncture repair kit, multitool
- Torch or headlamp
- The Timber Trail passes through a remote wilderness area. Emergency access is difficult in some places. You need to be prepared for adverse weather and emergencies.
- Our lodge management staff are trained in basic first aid and can assist with incidents at or near the lodge, however it is important you know what to do in an emergency if you are not near the lodge.
- Carry a first aid kit, and be prepared to help injured riders
- Carry extra food and plenty of water, warm clothing and even an emergency blanket
- The trail is well marked and easy to follow. Stick to this and you will not get lost
- Mobile reception is close to non-existent along the trail, we advise you not to rely on this
- Some people carry Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs). These can be used to signal for assistance in the event of a serious emergency
- Allow plenty of time to ride the trail. Most groups take 5-6 hours to ride the first stage from Pureora to Piropiro. The second leg usually takes slightly less time. Allow extra time for mishaps and breakdowns.
- Please note our policy is to alert Police Search and Rescue if guests have not arrived by dark.
Let Us Arrange It For You
Make it easy for yourself. Avoid the bother of finding and arranging shuttle transportation, booking enough accommodation, sorting out food and vehicle security.
Let us do it for you, and know you'll be looked after.

Just like the rest of Greece, the currency in Corfu is the Euro. You'll find plenty of ATMs throughout the main towns on the island, but it's useful to have a small amount of cash before you leave, so you don't spend the first few hours of your holiday looking for a bank or ATM. There are several ways to get your Corfu currency. You can go into any of our stores, order online for delivery to your home (it's free with orders over £500), or use our reserve and collect service to make sure you don't waste any time queuing when you're doing those last-minute preparations.
Pre-Paid Travel Cards
A mix of cash and card gives you a little extra security and convenience. You'll find your debit or credit card is accepted in many places, but cash is often preferred and helps keep things simple for independent businesses. It's worth investigating what your bank charges for transactions abroad too, as these fees can mount up and give you a nasty shock at the end of your holiday. A super-simple option is a pre-paid travel card such as Lyk. Just like other prepaid cards it can be loaded with cash before you leave and is easily topped up while you're away. It can be used to withdraw cash from most ATMs for a flat fee, and will be accepted in some larger stores. You've got the convenience of being able to manage your account online, and the back-up of 24-hour support. Combined with a bit of cash in your pocket when you land, it's an easy way to access currency in Corfu.
Thomas Cook Stores
Whether you want to take cash, card or a mix, we've got all the solutions you need for Corfu currency so pop in, give us a call, or chat online and we'll make sure you're ready to enjoy Corfu in style.

The European Commission said on October 24 that the EC has approved, under EU State aid rules, the extension of an aid scheme to support biogas production in Luxembourg for six years.
The objective of the measure is to ensure a stable remuneration for biogas plants, which produce biogas from biomass and inject it in the natural gas network.
The Commission said the EC assessed the prolongation of the scheme approved today under EU State aid rules, and in particular the 2014 Guidelines on State aid for environmental protection and energy, which allow the Member States to support the production of electricity from renewable energy sources, subject to certain conditions.
According to the Commission conclusions, the prolongation of the scheme will help Luxembourg boost the share of electricity produced from renewable energy sources to meet its climate targets, in line with the environmental objectives of the EU, without unduly distorting competition.
The extended scheme, which will cover the period from January 2017 to December 2022, has an estimated budget of €45 million. The measure was initially approved by the Commission in 2011 and subsequently modified in 2015.

If you you are unfit, now could be the moment to do something about it and look at what you are eating. We often stay as we are or opt not to concentrate on it while we may know we need to shed weight off. The USA and Canada are facing high rates of their population having weight troubles. Diabetes and problems with blood pressure and cholesterol are two of the consequences of obesity. There are reasons to be scared when being overweight impacts such a large number of people living in a country.
As stated earlier, there are several health issues related to being fat. Diabetes, for instance, can be a cause of vision loss or limb removal, which can clearly have a crushing effect on your life. You may think this could never happen to you, but if you're fat then it's a very terrible reality. If you are ready to make some modifications, you have a greater chance of preventing health problems, merely by exercising and watching what you eat.
So what types of foods do you need to consume? Nutritious healthy foods is what you should be eating. Check the meats that you buy as chicken, beef and pork can be okay providing they contain small quantities of fat. Fish is likewise good to ingest since it contains lots of good nutrients that are important for your body.
Most junk foods have 'empty calories', which are in essence calories in the form of sugar or fat that don't truly supply your body with anything useful. If you were to ingest some chicken, the calories in it would be viewed useful, because chicken contains a great deal of protein, which is of use to the body. The incorrect types of fat, too much salt and sugar, these are areas you have to watch and be sure they are kept to a minimum. These unhealthy foods are oftentimes found in prepared kinds, so try to keep away from these.
Our diets can lead to health issues such as diabetes and heart problems and it is too bad that prepared food is something we love eating. Fresh vegetables, lean meat and good, homely food is what you need to ingest. Sitting down to eat, it would be nice to know the exact ingredients.
Aside from this, you have to exercise regularly. For a healthy heart and to be fit physically, start exercising to compliment the weight loss you attain with the healthy diet. When you walk, you can begin slowly if you haven't worked out for a while. a short jog, progressing onto frequent runs is how you can intensify it. Doing resistance training is great for your muscles because it'll beef them up and burn off calories.
The fact is you can make easy progression by slowly altering your diet and work out habits. To get started feeling better, start by walking and ingesting some nutritious meals. Learn more by reading Weight Loss Suggestions and about Healthy Eating.

Hi everyone
I have not had any procedures or operations in the last seven (7) day; however IM & IV injections have been more prolific - normally we have two (2) injections per day, yesterday I had eight (8).
Since the three (3) day procedure last week, I have noticed two improvements; my breathing is stronger and I have slight extra strength in my neck..... I can measure my breath strength daily with a simple metering device........
For those who don't know, I was here last year for 6 weeks.....The main benefit I got was approximately 10% improvement in my throat, especially my ability to swallow food and drink.
Only eight (8) days to go....and hopefully a few more procedures before we leave with lots of stem cells.
Hottest April in New Delhi in fifty years........average well over 40 degrees Celsius every day
Love and peace

Pupils of Newtonmore Primary School as the Awesome Clean Team at the HI Social Enterprise in Schools Awards 2017
Schools in the Highlands and Islands can benefit from tailored support delivered by the Social Enterprise Academy which has been developed in partnership with Highlands and Islands Enterprise.
The HI Social Enterprise in Schools programme builds on the success of the Social Enterprise in Education programme, which has worked with 600 schools and colleges since 2007.
The core principal of the programme is that the social enterprises are pupil-led. They decide their social purpose, do their own market research and develop and run the enterprise themselves. Each school has resources, ongoing support and opportunities to link with social entrepreneurs in their community.
This approach engages pupils of all abilities and has helped those taking part to really thrive, developing confidence and self-esteem, as well as improving behaviour and attendance.
Schools across the entire area are encouraged to take part and benefit from local expertise and support.
Pupils at Dornoch Academy are supporting three local charities with their social enterprise, Braw Chocolate.
The group sells a range of handmade chocolates to the community via pop up shops in a variety of settings, and produce special ranges for Christmas and Easter. In their first two years of operation, the pupils generated £10,000 turnover and in 2016/2017 donated a total of £900 to charities which support young carers and people with special needs.
Pupils learn hands-on production techniques, retail practice, valuable business experience, and gain Elementary Food Hygiene certification as part of working with the team.
Pupils at Plockton High School's Gaelic Unit (Àrd-sgoil a' Phluic) have been running a social enterprise selling unique Gaelic-themed merchandise since Christmas 2015. They took part in the annual Highland Hospice Young Apprentice Competition but decided to run a social enterprise rather than a series of fundraising events.
With the support of the Social Enterprise Academy, pupils participated in a workshop - run in Gaelic - and received templates for business plans and learning resources to help them with all aspects of getting set up. The pupils have made over £1300 since December, selling Harris Tweed clocks and carved ornamental goods, and anticipate a continued annual turnover of around £1,000 per annum. During the first year of trading they have exclusively supported the Highland Hospice but are now looking for some community initiatives to get involved with. This will be a key part of their succession planning for the next academic year.
Pupils have sold their merchandise at Christmas stalls and other school events but have also expanded to take online orders through their Facebook page and have received orders from as far afield as Falkirk. The pupils also sell their products in local shops and are looking at possibilities to sell in more urban centres across Scotland.

At the end of your training, you will receive a certification. However, a certification does not entitle you to apply lashes without an esthetician/ cosmetology license. To obtain one of those licenses, you will need to apply for beauty school and complete the hours required. After completion of the classic and/or volume course you will still receive on going support for you to succeed as a lash artist. You will receive certification once you meet our company standards for application, adhesive control, direction, and lash safety.
We offer three different lash classes:
Classic - We have a one day training class for classic lashes the cost is $700. We will provide a live model for lash training. This course is five hours long for one day.
Volume - Our volume class is two days it is $950. We will provide a model for training. We will review placement of lashes and our technique on how to create fluffy volume fans.
Combination - A combined class of classic and volume is $1450 (save $200!!) this course is a two day class and we will provide a live model.A $500 deposit is required to reserve your spot in the class and will be applied towards the total cost, the remainder will be due TWO weeks before the first day of class.

Students will observe your mentor taking a client from start to finish, as well as take your own model on the last day with your mentor's guidance.
There are many classes available right now, but one on one is hard to find and usually over $3,600. We believe that our students learn better with one on one guidance and of course hands on. However, we also have group training as well. Students will also have our full support and guidance down the road if you have questions or concerns. For the three days, five hours per day the cost is $2,500 for group and $3,200 for private training.

This is a private training course, we do not offer group training for this option. With this option, it is a five day course. The training is broken down to three days for microblading and two days for classic and volume training.
Total cost is $4,450 (save $200). A $500 deposit will be required and will apply to the total cost, remaining balance is due TWO weeks before the first day of class.

Posted in 2013: As I work through Durham's commentary on Revelation I am reminded over and over about the covenant. When I picked up this work I expected to find a fairly standard commentary except for the classic Post Mil Historicist point of view, but I find it is often devotional and always deeply theological. Durham never fails to open up the scriptures with detailed notes and exegesis well before offering any interpretation of prophecy. This has caused me to revisit and think deeply about Baptist covenant theology, what it means to be a Baptist and is it Biblical. While meditating upon this subject I was reminded of the work quoted below and wanted to share.
A selection from the work of Thomas Patient published in 1654 on the subject of the new covenant of grace and its relation to the ordinance of baptism.
The New Covenant Is Not Entailed Upon Any Fleshly Line
This New Covenant was never entailed upon any fleshly line or generation as the Covenant of Circumcision was, but was confirmed of God in Christ, and to such souls only in Christ. This you find in the promise to Abraham, Gen. 12:3. "In thee shall all the Nations of the earth be blessed."
Here you may observe that there is no respect of persons in the matter of these blessings to everlasting life. All Nations in Christ, one Nation as well as another, if in Christ, have those blessings promised to them. This much is employed in that promise that all nations out of Him are accursed.
What Is Meant by the Blessedness Promised to Abraham and His Seed
God here directs His speech to Abraham (some may say) it is true, but with respect to Christ now, Who, as touching the flesh, was then in his loins. This blessedness or justification of life which was confirmed in Abraham as a Father of all Nations, is by the Apostle Paul called the Gospel, Gal. 3:8. The Scripture foreseeing that God would justify the Heathen through Faith, preached the Gospel to Abraham. As it is written, "In thee shall all the Nations of the Earth be blessed:" so this blessedness spoken of in Gen. 12:3 is expounded by Paul, to be justification by faith in Christ, and in Acts 3, this blessedness is there expounded to be a turning of every one of them from their iniquities, Acts 3:26.
The Covenant of Grace in Genesis 15:5
Also, this Gospel promise or covenant is spoken of in Gen. 15:5. Here God bids Abraham look up to the Heavens and if he could number the stars of heaven and the sands upon the seashore, so shall thy seed be. Abraham believed God and it was accounted to him for righteousness. This promise is quoted by the apostle Paul as the Gospel Covenant in Rom. 4:3 in opposition to the Covenant of Circumcision entailed upon the flesh or fleshly line of Abraham. Circumcision was a covenant in the flesh as the Apostle calls it, which he also expounds in the 1st and 2nd verses, to be a Covenant of Works. More of that hereafter. Only that which I would observe at present is, that the Apostle confirms that Gospel promise in Gen. 12:3 and Gen. 15:5 to be the New Covenant, wherein was given, through faith, the justification of life, excluding in this point the Covenant of Circumcision, called Works, Rom. 4:1,2.
Both Covenants Were Made With Abraham
Both these covenants are made with Abraham in Gen. 17. Here you find the New Covenant made with him to verse 6. From the 7th verse to the 14th the Covenant of Circumcision in the flesh is revealed to him. The New Covenant is expressed in the third verse. Here He says, "As for Me My covenant shall be with thee, and thou shalt be a Father of many nations, or of a multitude of nations, and thy name shall be no more called Abram but Abraham, for a Father of a multitude of nations have I made thee." This is, by the Apostle Paul in Rom. 4:17,18, held out to be the Covenant of Life. He does clearly hold the Covenant of Life distinct and different from the Covenant of Circumcision. In that place he denies that Abraham or his spiritual seed, had their justification in the Covenant of Circumcision. He brings in this, that Abraham should be a Father of many nations, "and so shall thy seed be," as that in which Abraham and his spiritual seed, whether of Jews or Gentiles, were and should be justified.
Genesis 18:18
This promise or Covenant is made with Abraham in Gen. 18:18. "In thee shall all the Nations of the earth be blessed." So long as Christ was, according to the flesh, in Abraham's loins, the promise runs thus, "in thee," meaning that through Christ, which then was in Him, should all nations of the earth be blessed.
The Seed in Isaac
But as soon as Isaac was come out of Abraham's loins, Gen. 22:18, then He says, "In thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed:" whereby seed, most strictly is to be understood of Christ, as the Apostle Paul intimates in Gal. 3:16 where he expounds this word seed, to be not seeds, as of many, but seed as of one which is Christ. So this blessedness in the Seed, Christ, is here expounded to be God's confirming His Covenant in Christ. Note that this blessedness which David holds out to be the Covenant confirmed of God in Christ, was not entailed upon the flesh of Abraham and his fleshly seed, but made in Abraham as a Father of all the Spiritual Seed in all nations. It was confirmed in the seed, Christ, to all nations.
Here the Jews, after the flesh, have no more interest than any other nation, except it be by faith. Faith only unites to this seed and gives an in-being in the same.
The Elect Were Blessed and the Rest Were Hardened
This blessedness is expounded by David in Psalm 32, last verse, to lie in remission of sins and purgation of the heart from guile and expounded by the Apostle in Acts 3, last verse, "to be a turning every one from his iniquities." There Peter expounds this blessedness which was confirmed in Abraham and his seed. Though Christ did fulfill this Covenant to the Elect of the Jews, the rest were hardened. They were never in this sense blessed, either in the point of justification or purgation from sin, because they were never in Christ, the true seed, by faith, nor were they ever the spiritual seed of Abraham, walking in the steps of his faith as all his spiritual seed did, Rom. 4:12 and Gal. 3:29. "If you be in Christ, then are you Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise."
Abraham and His Spiritual Seed in Christ Are Those in the Covenant of Grace
I have showed you from the clear light of Scripture that there were two covenants, a Covenant of Grace, and a Covenant of Works. The Covenant of Grace belongs to Abraham and his spiritual seed in Christ. All along from Adam to all the spiritual seed of the Woman, there are those who were born of promise as the Apostle describes the spiritual seed in Rom. 9:8. He says, "such are accounted the seed, that are so born of promise." So at this day all nations, both Jews and Gentiles who are born again, are the seed and children. They only have an interest in the promise of salvation.
