Dalmeny (Scottish Gaelic: Dail Mheinidh) is a rural village and civil parish in Scotland. It is located on the south side of the Firth of Forth, 1 mile (1.6 km) east-southeast of South Queensferry and 8.3 miles (13.4 km) west-northwest of central Edinburgh. It is part of the region of Lothian, and falls under the local governance of the City of Edinburgh Council.
Name history[edit]
The name Dalmeny is either of Cumbric origin: deriving from Din Meini, "stony fort" cf. the earlier form Dunmanye (1562),[1] most likely referring to Castle Craig above the town; or potentially of Scottish Gaelic origin, being now Dail Mheinnidh or Dail M'Eithne in the modern language. This may refer to an ancient ecclesiastical settlement, dedicated to an obscure (female) saint Eithne. The local parish church may have been dedicated to her, but is now dedicated to St Cuthbert.
The village has its own primary school, which teaches about a hundred pupils, and a railway station near the south end of the Forth Bridge, which also serves South Queensferry. At one time the village was served by a village shop and post office, but these have closed down due to competition from numerous out of town supermarkets.
Parish Church[edit]
The present church building dates from the early 12th century,[2] and is recognised as the finest Norman/Romanesque parish church still in use in Scotland, and one of the most complete in the United Kingdom, lacking only its original western tower, which was rebuilt in a sympathetic style in 1937.[3] The aisleless nave, choir and apse survive almost complete from the 12th century. The refined sculptural detail of the chancel and apse arches is notable, as is a series of powerful beast-head corbels supporting the apse vault. These features are also extremely well preserved, with the original tool-marks still visible. The elaborate south doorway is carved with the signs of the zodiac and an "agnus dei", enlivened with blind arcading above. The door is comparable to the north door at Dunfermline Abbey.[3] Nearby is a rare 12th-century sarcophagus carved with 13 doll-like figures (possibly Christ and the 12 apostles) in niches (now very weathered). The churchyard also has a number of fine 17th- and 18th-century gravestones.[2] Interrments in the churchyard include the advocate and historian John Hill Burton (1809–1881).
The north (Rosebery) aisle dates from 1671 and was remodelled in the late 19th century. This has elaborate but "inaccurate" Neo-Norman details.[3] The church is a category A listed building.[2]
As of 2009, the minister of the church is the Reverend David Cameron.[4]
When viewed from a distance the church appears to rise on a mound above the local topography. It is speculated that it is built on a pre-Christian burial mound.[5] This would mean that the graveyard predates the church. A second detached mound of smaller size lies on the east road out of the village. This pre-dating is further evidenced by the 7th century coffin stone near the door which appears to have been dug up during the 1937 restoration.
Apart from its parish church, the most significant building is the 19th-century Dalmeny House, to the east of the village, which is the home of the Earls of Rosebery. The most notable earl was Archibald Primrose, 5th Earl of Rosebery, who served as Prime Minister from 1894 to 1895. The village itself consists of 19th-century cottages along the main street, with 20th-century housing to the south close to the A90. To the south of the A90 is the Dalmeny Tank Farm, a large oil-storage facility operated by BP. The facility was constructed in the 1970s on a former oil shale mine, and is screened by a mound of the waste material from the mine. Oil is transferred to and from the site from tankers moored at the Hound Point Terminal in the Firth of Forth.[6]
Dalmeny, along with Queensferry, Kirkliston, Cramond, Silverknowes, Newbridge, Gogar and Cammo, forms the Almond electoral ward of City of Edinburgh Council.
- John Chesser (1819–1892), architect, was born in Dalmeny and later succeeded his father as clerk of works to the Dalmeny Estate.[7]

U.S./Iranian Thaw? Exchange of letters between President Obama and new Iranian President Rouhani
In perhaps the most positive development since the United States and the Islamic Republic of Iran severed diplomatic ties 34 years ago, President Obama & new Iranian President Hassan Rouhani have exchanged correspondence.
Indeed, the last several weeks have seen a thaw in the U.S./Iranian relationship.
The next test: Both presidents will go to the United Nations to address the U.N. General Assembly. Might they have at least a casual encounter, even if nothing is officially planned? Time will tell. (Paradoxically, the Russian-Syrian deal may have greased the wheels.)
For some folks in the United States - particularly hawkish supporters of Israel - all this will be anathema. Their arguments? The Iranians are only playing for time; Hassan Rouhani is just a more moderate face for a brutal, theocratic regime.
Or, even if President Rouhani really does want to strike a deal - and liberate Iran from international sanctions - at some point, Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, will undermine Rouhani.
Indeed, we've seen a "moderate" elected to the Iranian Presidency before: Mohammad Khatami. He ultimately proved to be rather ineffectual, and even acknowledged the resistance of hardliners in the clerical establishment.
But, consider: As the recent Syrian debate underscores, Americans of many political stripes are truly war-weary. And the Iranian people may have been trying to send a signal with their election of Hassan Rouhani.
An Iranian-American I've known for a quarter of century - who KNOWS Rouhani - portrays the new Iranian president as both crafty and erudite, and above all, pragmatic - someone who knows the skeletons in the closet of the ayatollahs and knows how to play multi-dimensional chess. In that, Rouhani represents the mirror opposite of his predecessor, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who came off to many Westerners as an uncouth Persian bull in a China shop.
Still unclear if Rouhani is in any position to make concessions regarding Iran's nuclear program. I've blogged about this subject before: To average Iranians - proud Persians descendant from an ancient civilization - Iran has every right to possess nukes, especially with Israeli nukes to its west and Pakistani nukes to its east. Indeed, Iran under the Shah probably would have been nuclearized by now.
That's the sticking point. Israel regards a nuclearized Iran as an existential threat. (In this, Israeli & Saudi interests converge.) But for others, the international community will just have to accomodate a nuclearized Iran -- at some point.
The late General Bill Odom - former director of the National Security Agency (with whom I used to have long conversations) - argued that U.S. threats directed at Iran were only creating a vicious circle... making Iranians MORE intent on acquiring nukes. In other words, Bush Administration policies at the time were only exacerbating the very thing the United States and Israel didn't want. (If General Odom sounds like some dove in this regard, remember he served as N.S.A. director under Ronald Reagan.)
Indeed, just three days before his sudden death, General Odom co-authored a piece with Zbigniew Brzezinski berating the Bush Administration's approach to Iran. This policy, Odom declared, "may work with donkeys but not with serious countries."
Iran remains a complex place: Let's not forget Iranian Islamists were NOT aboard those planes on 9/11... Egyptians and Saudis (from countries regarded as U.S. allies) were. Iran condemned the 9/11 attacks; Iranians held a candlelight vigil in solidarity with the United States.
Yet we remember the occupation of the U.S. Embassy after the 1979 Islamic Revolution and Iranians remember the U.S. alliance with Iraq during the Iran/Iraq War (1980-88). Iraq was the country which mounted an air and land invasion of western Iran, not the other way around. (Although Iraqi apologists claimed Iran had launched artillery attacks on Iraqi towns; this stemmed from a territorial dispute over the Shatt al Arab waterway.)
You can hear my in-depth interview with Iran expert Dr. Hossein Askari, Professor of International Business & International Affairs at George Washington University, who knew Hassan Rouhani long before he became the Iranian president... (Dr. Askari also predicted Rouhani would win the Iranian presidency long before that became obvious!)

The ASIA TIMES' Pepe Escobar has a fascinating take on this diplomatic chessmatch...

It looks like having the US not discuss the bombing of Iran every weekend news cycle to hide the inadequacies of the Cheney administration, is finally paying off.
Thu, Sep 19, 2013 9:36am
If one looks at this from Iran's perspective, Iran must acquire a bomb, simply because the U.S. is too much of an enemy. They see us gear-up to provoke regime change in Syria, and do nothing with North Korea (except send Dennis Rodman, lol). They can figure things out for themselves.
The method or way out of them not getting a bomb is to align themselves more with China, so that provoking Iran, pokes China too. There are very interesting developments which took place 2 weeks ago in Samarkand with Putin, Xi, and Rouhani. Overall China is investing close to a trillion to provide roads, railroads, pipelines into the "stans" of Central Asia, thereby making itself the hub and export destination for all those countries.
Economically, this is also beneficial to Putin, who would prefer the petroleum exports all get sucked up by the East, so that Europe would not gain any alternate source of natural gas to rival Gasprom's monopoly on Europe.

Urban Growth Externalities and Neighborhood Incentives: Another Cause of Urban Sprawl?
AbstractThis paper suggests a cause of low density in urban development or urban sprawl that has not been given much attention in the literature. There have been a number of arguments put forward for market failures that may account for urban sprawl, including incomplete pricing of infrastructure, environmental externalities, and unpriced congestion. The problem analyzed here is that urban growth creates benefits for an entire urban area, but the costs of growth are borne by individual neighborhoods. An externality problem arises because existing residents perceive the costs associated with the new residents locating in their neighborhoods, but not the full benefits of new entrants which accrue to the city as a whole. The result is that existing residents have an incentive to block new residents to their neighborhoods, resulting in cities that are less dense than is optimal, or too sprawling. The paper models several different types of urban growth, and examines the optimal and local choice outcomes under each type. In the first model, population growth is endogenous and the physical limits of the city are fixed. The second model examines the case in which population growth in the region is given, but the city boundary is allowed to vary. We show that in both cases the city will tend to be larger and less dense than is optimal. In each, we examine the sensitivity of the model to the number of neighborhoods and to the size of infrastructure and transportation costs. Finally, we examine optimal subsidies and see how they compare to current policies such as impact fees on new development.

Actress Cynthia Nixon has signed up to play Emily Dickinson in new biopic "A Quiet Passion."
Bing: Sarah Jessica Parker guest starring on 'Glee'
British director Terence Davies reveals he wrote the script with Nixon in mind, and is thrilled she has agreed to portray the reclusive poet in his film. He tells The Hollywood Reporter, "It was the kind of dream casting you hope for. I never, for a moment, imagined my wishes would materialize. Cynthia has such a strong feeling for the work -- and now she is our Emily Dickinson. I'm over the moon."
Tell us on Facebook: What do you think of the casting?
Nixon insists she was so moved by Davies' story she couldn't say no to the part, adding, "When I read what Terence had written, I was consumed by the character he had so beautifully put on the page. Emily Dickinson's words and Terence's somehow dovetail to create a heady elixir. When I put the script down, I knew it was a story that I simply have to be part of."
An interesting challange for both Davies and Cynthia Nixon. Emily Dickenson was such a solitary figure known only somewhat to her family and some acquaintances, thus a one woman show which I understand this will be, is appropriate. Much of her poetry, short in words, almost tweets of our time, were amazingly perceptive for a woman who never traveled, for many years secluded herself in her home and never published more than a dozen of her poems in her short lifetime of 55 years. Whatever her societal shortcomings, her perceptions of life and the small things are comforting and inspiring to read. She needs to be honored.
Currently there is an online poetry course developed by faculty and staff of Kelly House Penn State U which includes Dickenson. While they parse her poetry and dissect her words, Most of her poetry remains beyond them. Just as biology students cut into a frog to discover the life force, doing such kills the frog. May Miss Nixon savor the words and as Emily said, "There is no frigate like a book to take us lands away".

COVERT, MI (WHTC) - For the first time in 2013, the Palisades nuclear power plant near Covert was shut down on Friday afternoon, this time because of problems in the cooling water heat exchangers system that had foiled trouble-shooting efforts for several previous days. Plant officials didn't have a timeline for when the facility will remain off-line until the system is fixed, but did say that additional repairs to other areas of the plant will also be done. Palisades has been plagued by various shutdowns in the past couple of years, some because of operational errors in 2011, and some because of pipe leaks in 2012.

With Healthcare Administration Degree You Can Ensure Smooth Operation Of A Hospital
Every hospital and clinic is operated by healthcare administrators because they ensure that the hospitals deliver quality healthcare services to the patients. Efficiency and the smoothness of the organization are very important, and this is managed by the department of healthcare administration. The administrators are responsible for carrying out wide range of duties ranging from management of finances, budgets, regulations, work schedules and records in the hospitals. The administrators in the small hospital settings manage the entire facility, while larger setting might hire the administrators to manage a particular department or branch of the hospital. Thus, a career in healthcare administration can be indeed exciting.
Knowing Minimum Requirements:
In order to become a healthcare administrator, you need to acquire the healthcare administration degree. However, prior to that, you should know the minimum requirements of becoming an administrator. Users can know more about this segment from healthcareadmin.org. You should have a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution like University of Minnesota or University of Michigan. These programs include many things like internship for helping the students to get a practical idea. With this degree, you can find entry level jobs like an assistant administrator with salary scale of $40, 000 per year. This is not the end. You can get insight into other programs through this site.
Continuing Your Studies:
If you want to establish a bright career in this field, you should continue your studies. After the bachelor, you should try to get master healthcare administration degree. There are many employers that prefer hiring students with a master degree. This is because they are assured about the skills that these students possess. Thus, on the completion of your master degree combined with few years of work experience can help you find better jobs with higher salaries above $1, 15, 000. The degree course work includes business related to healthcare studies. These things can help you to manage the business developments in the healthcare sector.

Kyla Alissa Pratt (born September 16, 1986) is an African American actress and singer. Once considered one of Hollywood's best upcoming young actresses, she seems to have run into the glass ceiling that plagues many black actresses, and has been reduced to Direct-to-DVD movies. It remains to be seen if she can overcome it.

buffalo bill, a glacier, a birthday, + friends4
mr blue eyes had a birthday and it was a really good one! the day started with sleeping in a little, lots of surprise presents, breakfast served, then off to lookout mountain (alleged resting spot of buffalo bill) which has non-stop views of denver, golden, and we could even see edgewater (well, the lake); then a glacier hike, tommyknockers, a winery, and cooking out with the best of friends. a good day right?
we hiked st. mary's glacier for the first time and it is amazing!! close to home, a little bit of a workout getting to the lake and glacier, but a short hike so reward comes quickly, and so unbelievably gorgeous. it was the end of june and people were ice-pick climbing, skiing, and snowboarding the glacier, so cool. i'm not sure it will ever seem like just another day when you can go from hot and 90's to ice-pick climbing. one of our favorite hikes so far.
birthday surprises included a raised fire-pit cooking grate and vegetable/popcorn grill baskets (popcorn over the fire!!). when we traveled full-time (in the airstream) some of our favorite nights included cooking on an open fire; in san diego we/he cooked on the campfire grill every single night for a month. those california nights were my birthday inspiration, and i am happy to say this surprise has been a big success already. we celebrated with the best of friends, who gave the perfect gift, a mini ax/hatchet. he loves it, immediate use (on firewood only). it's amazing how cooking outdoors with friends, the extra time it takes, the involvement of many instead of one, how that makes for the best evening.
my husband has given me the world, i am so so lucky to be able to celebrate with him each and every year. thanks for all that you do and for the being the man that you are. my cute birthday boy. i love you.
p.s. if you want to try outdoor popcorn popping here's our baskets from surlatable | and a few extras : best summer body wash ever! smells just like fresh squeezed lemonade and it's from method! | i started using one of these and it actually makes you look like you had a salon blow-out (does not curl my hair though) | this has completely changed my life | liberty! | this book | hot tomatillo and green chile | leopard love!! | happy 4th of july everyone! we'll be celebrating america + our 16th wedding anniversary!

This is a cool shot, love it!
All she needs is a guitar
I take it you always sleep nude…..aint nothing wrong with that
I have a friend whose a little younger than man. We'll say around 8 years younger. We were talking the other day and she told me how during her sexcapades she has been known to squirt. Now wow I lit up like a 13 year old boy she told me she doesn't like it. Her word exactly were that she found it nasty. Now before you say it this is a very sexually open girl she is bisexual and some of the things she has done would put some porn stars to shame, so you can see why I was a little taken aback by the statement. I told her that I found woman that can do this sexy because from what I see its a total lose of inhibition and control. This is also a reason she doesn't like it because she looses control of her body. This also reminded of a friend I had who was afraid to have a orgasm because she didn't know what would happen. That's a story for another day. My dilemma now is how do I help her to embrace what I think I a great sexual trait.
Ill believe it when I see it.
One of my favorite "new" girls has a great attitude and has a hell of a site check her out
With all the porn parodies based on comics right now I'm wondering if we will ever see a Fantastic Four Parody. If they can pull off a Iron Man costume in porn shouldn't be to hard to do a Mr. Fantastic or Thing, and the invisible woman sex scene would be hilarious and show how good some starlets really are. I think the problem would be the human torch gotta saw sex and fire might not mix.

Second WWE House Show Report 1.19.13 - Ontario, California
Posted by
Jeffrey Harris
on 01.20.2013
Another look at the show...
Report by Rem Martinez and
Hey guys, I just got back from the RAW Brand House Show at the Citizen's Business Bank Arena in Ontario, CA. Here's The Champ's Report for the show.
Match #1
Brodus Clay w/Naomi and Cameron vs Jack Swagger
Swagger played the cowardly heel in this match. He kept attacking and retreating throughout the match. Brodus mocked him by doing a Chicken Dance. Brodus ends the match with a Big Splash. 1-2-3.
Winner: Brodus Clay
Brodus was way over with the crowd.
Match #2
Tensai vs Bo Dallas
A few Albert chants broke out as usual. The crowd was dead for the most part during this match. A side note, I realize that Bo isn't even on the main roster yet, but what a generic titantron he has. It makes Braden Walker's look like Randy Orton's. Tensai dominated this match. Bo Dallas barely got any offense in at all. Bo was up against the turnbuckles and Tensai came charging towards him. Bo avoids it and rolls up Tensai 1-2-3.
Winner: Bo Dallas
We are now joined by the WWE Champion, CM Punk (who was limping to the ring). He says he is not cleared for singles competition tonight. He has a doctor's note to prove it. He said "This is real life and I will not be competing tonight. Ontario, go back to doing whatever you do." Dolph Ziggler's music hit. He comes out with Big E Langston and AJ Lee. Dolph is wearing a surgeon's mask and says he is sick with the flu and he cannot compete either. He has a doctor's note as well. Vickie Guerrero comes out and makes Dolph Ziggler and CM Punk vs John Cena and Ryback for the Main Event. She also announces that The Miz will challenge Antonio Cesaro for the United States and we can vote for the stipulation. We can vote for a NoDQ Match or a 2 out of 3 Falls Match. NoDQ wins by a landslide.
Match #3
Alex Riley vs Damien Sandow
Damien cuts his basic promo. He says "What" is his least favorite word as the crowd chants it. A decent match with A-RY really being over with the crowd. Sandow hits the Terminus after the Cubito Aequet and this one is over 1-2-3.
Winner: Damien Sandow
You're Welcome.
Antonio Cesaro appears on the video screen. He basically cuts the same promo where we Americans squander our opportunities (blah blah blah). He says he will be the United States Champion
for a long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long (yes, he said it that many times) long long time.
Match #4
Antonio Cesaro (c) vs The Miz in a No Disqualification Match for the United States Championship
This is one of the best matches that I have ever seen in person. A Kendo Stick and 2 Steel Chairs were in play. The crowd is chanting "We Want Tables!" Cesaro goes to the outside and pulls out a table much to the delight of the crowd. He realizes that he doesn't like us, so he puts the table back under the ring. Miz catches him with a baseball slide and takes him down. Miz pulls out the same table, but Cesaro kicks it in Miz's face. Cesaro picks up the table that Miz took out and puts it back under the ring. Major heat for that, I thought it was funny. Awesome spot happened when Miz had control of Antonio. Miz Irish Whipped Antonio off of the ropes, Miz attempted a Leap Frog, but Cesaro (all in one motion) snatched him out of mid-air and turned it into a sick Tilt-O-Whirl Backbreaker. Miz starts wearing down the Champion's legs. Miz locks in the Figure Four in the middle of the ring. It look like Cesaro is going to tap, but he gets his hands on a Kendo Stick that was in the ring and blasts Miz in the head with it. Antonio hits the Swiss Death uppercut, but Miz kicks out. Miz gets the Kendo stick and hits his patented running clothesline with the Kendo Stick. Miz goes under the ring and grabs the same table that was pulled out twice. Miz tries to set up the table, but one of legs is broken. Miz lays the table against the corner turnbuckle and is calling for a Spear. Antonio uses the ref as a shield, which forces Miz to hit the brakes. Cesaro pokes Miz in the eye and quickly hits the Neutralizer..1-2-3.
Winner: And Still United States Champion Antonio Cesaro
Post Match, Cesaro tries to Suplex Miz through the table, but Miz blocks it. Miz tries to Suplex Cesaro through the Table, but Antonio blocks it. Miz is then able to Spear Antonio through the table. I can't wait to see how this feud plays out on TV.
Intermission time
Match #5
Tamina Snuka vs Kaitlyn (c) for the WWE Divas Championship
I couldn't believe the pop that Kaitlyn received, I didn't think she was this over. Kaitlyn is still a little sloppy in the ring, but she is getting better. Tamina had her down and climbed to the top rope. I thought for sure that she was going to miss the Superfly Splash, but she connected. 1-2-Kickout by Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn hits the Spear and gets the 1-2-3.
Winner: And Still WWE Divas Champion Kaitlyn
Some guy sitting near me was singing Kaitlyn's Theme very loudly. Weird, I guess he likes to "Spin the Bottle".
Match #6
Cody Rhodes vs Zack Ryder
Not much to say about this one. A little "Cody's Mustache" chant broke out. Zack hit the Broski Boot and the Rough Ryder to seal the victory. 1-2-3.
Winner: Zack Ryder
Main Event
CM Punk and Dolph Ziggler w/AJ Lee and Big E Langston vs John Cena and Ryback
I thought this was a match to protect CM Punk, but he took his fair share of bumps. As John Cena was sprinting to the ring, Punk tried to tackle him, but he missed. It was pretty funny to see. Punk and Ziggler made frequent tags and isolated Ryback from his corner. Ryback makes his comeback and nearly decapitates Ziggler with the Meathook Clothesline. He gets his "Finish It" in, but suddenly...Big E Langston is on the ring apron. They have a stare down and the crowd wants them to go at it. Langston gets down, but the distraction allows Ziggler to catch Ryback with a Superkick. Ryback recovers and makes the hot tag to Cena, but the ref doesn't see it. While the ref is pulling Cena to his corner, Big E Langston gets in the ring and hits his Finisher EASILY on Ryback. He picked up Ryback as easily as he did Hornswoggle, I kid you not. Cena tattles on Big E and the ref looks to the crowd for advice. Big E Langston is ejected. AJ starts freaking out and shoves the referee while yelling at him. AJ is tossed as well. John Cena hits the 5 Knuckle Shuffle, followed by the AA on Dolph. 1-2-3.
Winners: John Cena & Ryback
Decent show overall. The US Title Match was great and the Main Event was very good. The rest seemed like filler.

Shapewear solutions for the Mother of the Bride
Getting the right shapewear can make any outfit and body shape look amazing.
Purchasing the correct sized shapewear is a crucial step in making the most of what you've got, and also key in ensuring that your day is comfortable. Too large and the shapewear can bunch up and twist about. Too small and the shapewear could pinch and cause unwanted bulges to your outfits.
Shapewear is usually only available in a small range of colours, but don't let this hold you back. It's what they can do to your figure that is key.
Always purchase shapewear that offers the desired level of control, do not be tempted to order a smaller size in order to get greater control. All these pieces have been designed with that in mind, just make sure you have yoru correct hip and waist measurements.
Different shapewear can do different jobs. Shapewear that offers light control will smooth but offer little shaping, whilst medium control shapewear can add tone, firm the body and smooth.
Always buy to the level you need, since getting shapewear with too much control can feel overly restrictive.
Most imprtantly always try your shapewear with your outfit to gauge the level of freedom and comfort, and also to check if it is visible or not

Meditations in Jude
"Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called: Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied." Jude 1-2
Note that Jude, the brother of James – either one of the apostles (Luke 6:16) or the brother of James and a half-brother to the Lord Jesus Christ (Matthew 13:55 ) – simply calls himself a servant of Jesus Christ, claiming no position of authority as an apostle or as a brother to Jesus. So also we, whether pastor, teacher or lay worker, are all servants of the Lord Jesus Christ who seek to carry out His will and mission in this world.
Jude writes to those sanctified and set apart by God the Father, preserved in Jesus Christ and called to faith in Him. He writes to those who have graciously been brought to faith in Christ Jesus and are preserved in that faith by God's working. Therefore, it is not to those who are Christian in name only but to those whom God has called and sanctified through faith in Christ Jesus that Jude addresses this letter.
And though we hear these words often, the blessing of verse two which Jude uses to greet his readers is worthy of careful consideration. It is not only a well wish but the prayer and blessing that God's mercy in Christ Jesus, the peace of sins forgiven won by Jesus' innocent sufferings and death, and God's love which comes to us in His Son be multiplied and increase.
Oh, that we might know and grasp in faith the richness of God's mercy upon us for Jesus' sake! Oh, that we might know that peace of God which passes all understanding, and that we might begin to grasp the greatness of His love for us in sending His only-begotten Son to be the propitiation for our sins and save us from the wrath and judgment to come!
We thank and praise You, O Father, for the mercy, peace and love You have shown to us in Christ Jesus, our Savior. Grant that we hold hast to Him unto life everlasting. Amen.
"Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ." Jude 3-4
Jude's original intent was to write of the common salvation won for all through the holy life and innocent sufferings and death of Christ Jesus, our Savior; but the fact that men had crept into the church or churches undetected and were turning the grace of God in Jesus Christ into a license to sin and indulge in the desires of the flesh, and were denying the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent, prompted him to write a brief letter urging his hearers to "earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints."
We don't know the specifics, though similar warnings can be found in 2 Peter, 1 John and in the letters to the seven churches in the Book of Revelation. Could it be Gnostics who thought that what one did in the body really doesn't matter? Or, was it a form of carnal Christianity which used God's grace as license to indulge in sin since salvation is by grace and Christ paid for all sin? Are the words more broad because they are to be applied to all sorts of perversions of the Gospel?
Thus, we ask ourselves if there are those within the pale of churches today who abuse the grace of God offered and given us in Christ Jesus in order to indulge in the sinful desires of their flesh? Do we even use God's grace as a license to sin?
Did Christ die for all sin that we might continue on in our sinful ways without consequence? What does the Bible say? "Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?" (Rom. 6:1-2). "He died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again" (2 Cor. 5:15).
And, does it ever happen that people become associated with churches who, whether by their teaching or lifestyle, advance such errors among believers and cause others to fall with them?
What was the faith once delivered unto the saints? Where can we find and learn its teaching? Remember that we "are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone" (Eph. 2:20). Remember that "all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works" (2 Tim. 3:16-17).
Thus, for what faith are we to be earnestly contending? Are we to stand by when people within the pale of the church teach contrary to the Bible or attempt to change its meaning to accommodate their own sinful views or lifestyles? Notice also that those who abuse and pervert the true doctrine end up denying "the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ."
Through the Scriptures, O God, You have revealed to me the faith once delivered to the saints. Give me the strength and the willingness to contend for that faith against those who would depart from the teaching of Your Word and turn Your grace into a license for sin and deny You and the Lord Jesus Christ. In His name, I pray. Amen.
"I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day." Jude 5-6
Can one have true and genuine faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as one's savior from sin and yet continue in willful disobedience and rebellion against His Word? The apostle John writes: "He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him" (1 John 2:4). He adds: "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him" (1 John 3:4-6).
Thus, Jude adds the examples of the children of Israel who sinned in the wilderness and of the angels who "kept not their first estate" but sinned against the LORD God who had created them to be His servants and to do His will.
So also, we should not be deceived into thinking that God will not judge and punish those who abuse His grace and turn away from Him and the salvation He provided for us in His Son. The writer of Book of Hebrews says (in Hebrews 10:29-30) of those who willfully turn back into sin: "Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people."
Keep me, O God, from the presumptuous sin of abusing Your grace and turning back to the sin from which You redeemed me. Grant unto me true repentance and faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus. In His name, I pray. Amen.
"Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities. Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves." Jude 7-10
Sad to say, even within the outward pale of churches, there are those who would imagine that there is nothing wrong with the sexual perversion of our day. They say the prohibitions of Scripture were culturally influenced and are not true reflections of God's character or will.
But how do they answer the fact of God's judgment upon Sodom and Gomorrah and surrounding cities (Gen. 18-19)? How do they answer God's judgment upon Canaan (cf. Lev. 18)? And, indeed, we might add other judgments upon cities and nations to the mix.
Yet, in spite of the Biblical records of God's judgments upon cities and nations for their abominations, people today – even within the outward pale of churches – condone such sin and ridicule those who warn of God's wrath and impending judgment. As Jude writes, they speak evil of those who oppose such abominations and they rail against them – something the angels of God would not even do when contending with the devil. What these people don't know they ridicule; and what they know naturally as unthinking animals, in those things they corrupt themselves (cf. Rom. 1:18ff.).
How sad the conditions in the world today! And, even more sad, that such forms of thinking and lifestyles have come to be accepted among many who count themselves Christian!
God's judgment is near. Now is the time to repent and look to the Lord God for mercy in Christ Jesus before it is too late!
O God, have mercy upon our nation and the churches and religious leaders of our land. Grant that we would heed Your Word and repent of our evil ways, looking to You for mercy in Christ Jesus. Give us boldness to contend for the true Christian faith in the face of such opposition to the truth. Amen.
"Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever." Jude 11-13
Will God judge those who pervert the true doctrine and use the grace of God as a license for sin? Jude describes them to have fallen into the sin of Cain, who turned from the faith and even killed his brother Abel who was counted righteous through faith (cf. Gen. 4). Like Balaam (Num. 22-25) who, for the sake of earthly gain, found a way around God's word and commandment and caused the children of Israel to fall into sin and be cursed, so these hypocrites were quick to follow in such erring ways for their own gain. Along with Korah and those who spoke against God's called servants (Num. 16), these are likewise condemned to perish.
Jude describes them as "spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever."
These claimed to be believers and Christians but had no evidence of faith in their lives. Their lives and teaching were a denial of their Savior and of His doctrine.
Do we have those today who only go through the outward motions of the Christian faith while their hearts are far from the Lord? Are there those who seek to explain away and get around the teaching of the Bible on subjects which are in conflict with current cultural views?
And, what about us? Are we guilty of the same things?
Grant that we hold fast to Your Word, O Lord, and not compromise for the sake of peace or worldly gain. Have mercy upon us and forgive us for our sins and failures. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
"And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him." Jude 14-15
We know from Genesis 5 that Enoch walked with God by faith and that God translated him into heaven so that he did not die (cf. Heb. 11:5). From Jude's letter we learn that Enoch, like Noah, also warned the people of his day of God's coming judgment upon all who remained impenitent and lived in opposition to God and His ways.
And this prophecy of Enoch that "the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him" applied to the hypocrites among the churches to whom Jude wrote and to the hypocrites and unbelievers of our day.
Our Lord Jesus will soon return in the clouds of heaven with His holy angels to execute judgment upon all who have not turned from their sinful ways to Him in faith. Those who repent and trust in the redemption Christ accomplished by His life, death and resurrection will be received into the eternal joys of heaven. But those who continue in impenitence and unbelief will be found guilty and condemned to the eternal fires of hell (cf. 2 Thess. 1:7-10).
Thus, judgment awaited those of Jude's day who turned the grace of God into a license for sin; and the same judgment is coming upon those of our day who turn from Christ and His doctrine and indulge in the pleasures of sin.
Your Word warns us, O God, of Christ's return and His judgment upon all who have not believed in His name. Grant that we truly repent and look to Jesus and His cross for mercy and forgiveness. And grant that we, like Enoch, speak the truth in love and warn our generation of God's coming judgment upon impenitent sinners. We pray in Jesus' name. Amen.
"These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage. But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit." Jude 16-19
Should we be surprised at the unbelief of our day? Should we be surprised that, even within the outward pale of the church, people pervert the truth to support their selfish and sinful ways?
The answer, of course, is no. The apostles of our Lord Jesus warned us. The Scriptures tell us that persecution can be expected and "evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived" (2 Tim. 3:12-13).
Though they often champion unity in the churches, they are the ones who "cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned" and they "serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple" (Rom. 16:17,18). And it is for that reason that Christians who hold to the faith of the Bible are commanded to "mark" and "avoid" them.
In the days of drought following the prophecy of Elijah, Ahab said to Elijah, "Art thou he that troubleth Israel?"(1 Kings 18:17) Elijah answered (v. 18): "I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and thou hast followed Baalim." So also today, many would accuse those who contend for the faith once delivered to the saints of causing trouble in the churches and causing division. The real cause of trouble and division, however, rests on those who compromise the clear doctrine of God's Word.
Thus, in Jude's day, even if the churches must put out those who turned the grace of God into a license to sin, it was the unbelieving who separated themselves from the churches by their unbelief and sin.
It should be noted that those of whom Jude speaks use persuasive words and speeches and make use of personal and political connections to gain advantage, but they have not the Spirit of God. Instead of submitting to God's Spirit and the God-breathed Scriptures, they walk after their own fleshly lusts and use carnal means to get their way.
Keep us from walking according to the flesh instead of yielding to the Spirit of God and to the truth revealed in His Word. Preserve us from their pernicious ways. Amen.
"But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life." Jude 20-21
What did Jude direct his beloved hearers to do? Indeed, it is similar to what Paul commanded Timothy: "But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; and that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus" (2 Tim. 3:14-15). Jesus also said to the Jews who believed in Him: "If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:31-32).
Since the Spirit sanctifies us through the Scriptures (John 17:17; Rom. 10:17), we build ourselves up in our most holy faith by continuing in the Scriptures and praying for the Holy Spirit to teach and guide and lead us into all truth. We keep ourselves in the love of God which moved Him to give His only-begotten Son to die for us and pay in full for all our sins (John 3:16; 1 John 4:9-10), and we look for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ – His merciful gift of forgiveness and life everlasting.
In other words, we cling to Jesus and His Word. We hold fast to His promise of forgiveness and life everlasting for the sake of His innocent sufferings and death in our stead. We look forward to His glorious return and partaking of His mercy and pardon on that day. We continue to hope and live for the life eternal which Jesus will give to us when He comes again in glory to judge the living and the dead.
O gracious and merciful Savior, keep me in Your Word and grant that I cling to You by faith, trusting and looking forward to partaking of Your merciful gift of life everlasting in Your glorious kingdom. Amen.
"And of some have compassion, making a difference: and others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh." Jude 22-23
What are we to do while we await that day when Christ returns and, in mercy, receives us to Himself in heaven?
Like Enoch, we continue to warn the impenitent and unbelieving of God's coming judgment upon all who continue in rebellion against Him. We warn those who use the grace of God as a license to indulge in their sinful longings and desires.
But we also show mercy. We have compassion on those misled and overcome by sin. We warn them of the consequences and offer to them the comfort of God's pardon and forgiveness in Jesus Christ.
Patiently and compassionately, we reach out to the lost and erring that they too might come to repentance and be saved through faith in Christ Jesus and His cross.
Some we "save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh." We use the utmost care that we too be not drawn into sin and error through the weakness of our own flesh. We recognize the danger and consequences of sin – death. But, through the right application of God's Word, we pull them from the impending fires of hell, hating their sinful deeds, and show them the right way – a life lived by faith in the Son of God.
God, grant that we might bear witness to Your impending judgment upon sinners but also to Your mercy and forgiveness in Christ Jesus, our Savior. Preserve us from our own sinful longings and desires. Keep us from temptation and deliver us from evil. In Jesus' name. Amen.
"Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen." Jude 24-25
What a beautiful doxology! Jude closes in words of faith and praise to the LORD God who has brought us to to know and trust in Christ Jesus and the salvation He won for all.
It is the Lord God, by means of the gracious working of His Spirit through the Word, who is able to keep us from falling into sin and unbelief. He is the only one able to preserve us in the true faith and present us faultless before the throne of His glory. And He does so with exceeding joy!
And "to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen."
The fact that we believe and are saved through faith in Jesus is entirely to the glory of God. We were dead in our sins, but God graciously raised us up to life through faith in Jesus and His blood, shed for us upon the cross (cf. Eph. 1:3ff.; 2:1ff.). And, "He which hath begun a good work in us will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ" (Phil. 1:6).
All praise and glory be to You, O Lord Jesus, for redeeming me, bringing me to faith and preserving me in the faith once delivered unto the saints. Grant that I continue in your Word, hold fast to You and Your doctrine, and contend for that faith in this dark and sinful world. Amen.
1. Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness My beauty are, my glorious dress; midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed, with joy shall I lift up my head.
2. Bold shall I stand in that great Day, for who aught to my charge shall lay? Fully through these absolved I am from sin and fear, from guilt and shame.
3. The holy, meek, unspotted Lamb, who from the Father's bosom came, who died for me, e'en me t'atone, now for my Lord and God I own.
4. Lord, I believe Thy precious blood, which at the mercy-seat of God forever doth for sinners plead, for me–e'en for my soul–was shed.
5. Lord, I believe were sinners more than sands upon the ocean shore, Thou hast for all a ransom paid, for all a full atonement made.
6. When from the dust of death I rise to claim my mansion in the skies, e'en then, this shall be all my plea: Jesus hath lived and died for me.
7. Jesus, be endless praise to Thee, whose boundless mercy hath for me, for me, and all Thy hands have made, an everlasting ransom paid. Amen.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I've never played a PVE server, but I find PvP very easy to make money on. The trick is to work the AH. Focus on trade goods, everything else is too hard to sell, trade goods are always in demand and get used up. Focus on trade goods with low deposits. Enchanter's goods are ideal since they cost nothing to auction, there's almost no reason to ever have shards or dust in the bank.
Watch for glut events where an expensive material will be driven down, either by a population shift (large populations level together and changes zones), or a farmer push. Buy those out and wait. Sometimes it's just a matter of Thursday buys and Sunday sells at 200% profit.
When you're reselling, farmers are there for you to exploit.
Inflation is your best friend.
Another ideal situation is a wide price range. If there is 40-50% between the low and high, buyout the low then resell it somewhere below the high price.
Many small sales are more profitable than a few big ones.
Never bother with a material that has more than one screen worth of auctions (50). With a few exceptions, the only people who will sell those are undercutters.
An open market is a chance to kite prices up. Sacrifice a few deposits so others will price under you. Then cancel and undercut them.
Auction-gank flooders and farmers. If someone posts a few screens of something at a low price, try to under-flood them then bid on all their stuff. Ideally you can do this and still make a minimal profit. When it's an item with a high deposit this can be especially satisfying.
There are always other things to do. On my server (not telling), Rugged Leather prices are currently down below 1.5g. However Rugged Armor Kits are selling for 1.75g. You can make two with each stack of leather. Buy at 1.5g (or better), make two armor kits, sell for 3.5g. Two gold profit isn't bad for one trip between the AH and mailbox.
Using these ideas and others, I can usually pull in a few hundred gold a weekend.

Please disregard the latest headline "Fraport Expects Decision on Offer by End of the Day" at 1320 GMT. That news was reported at 1012 GMT.
By Kirsten Bienk
FRANKFURT--German airport operator Fraport AG (FRA.XE) didn't succeed in its bid for Istanbul's planned new airport, which is expected to become the world's largest, the company said Friday.
Turkish consortium Cengiz-Kolin-Mapa-Limak-Kalyon won the bid to operate the airport with an offer of 22.15 billion euros ($29.05 billion), the consortium said on its website.
Fraport bid more than EUR22 billion, but the board eventually withdrew from the bidding process, the company said.
In January, Turkish Transportation Minister Binali Yildirim said the new airport would occupy a 77 million square-meter area and have a capacity of 150 million passengers annually when completed.
Fraport already operates the Antalya airport in Turkey.
