So, your awareness is from your related secret work or conjecture or someone you know, or what?
I'm baking the cake as we speak.
I meant to say His birthday will be on that date, and I think you know that is what I meant. So I am going to start monitoring your threads and bring up every such faux pas that I find.
What's an "authentic" crop circle?
And I fully understand that concern. The rabbis are a pretty smart bunch, but they of course have an enormous blind spot when it comes to the Messiah.
On the other hand, I could also question the exegetical value of much of Christian tradition for similar reasons.
I will stipulate it may have some valuable insights into First Century Judaism, however. To use those insights to exegete the Old Testament, however, is fallacious.
Actually, done carefully, it's not. You are familiar, of course, with the concept of a hostile witness. When a person admits something that is not to their advantage, that's often the strongest sort of testimony. For most of our history, the Christians and the Jews have worked hard at definining themselves to be as separate as possible. Therefore, when one finds a Jewish tradition that is in complete agreement with the NT, one has to take special note.
Therefore, when I see a (as far as I've been able to determine) universally-accepted tradition that the Resurrection of the dead will occur on the Feast of Trumpets, using very similar terminology to that of Yeshua and Sha'ul, I consider that an important piece of testimony from a hostile source.
The other thing we have to remember is that the Scriptures are all high-context documents: They assume that the readers share a core of culture, language, idiom, and foundational teaching, that they all already have the context necessary to understand the author. The more we learn about the culture and idioms of those to whom the Scriptures were written, the better we understand the Scriptures.
There are passages in Sha'ul's epistles which make use of Greek references: For example, his teaching of grace was built on the then well-known patron-client relationship.
Likewise Yochanan's (John's) opening chapter, in which he titles Yeshua the Word of God, was apparently not based primarily on subtleties of the word logos, but on the Aramaic Targums' use of the term Memre Dei, "the Word of God," to describe the "part" of God who met with His people (see Lightfoot's Talmudic Commentary on the New Testament, Vol. 3, pardon the lack of a page number). God's Word (Heb. D'var) is not simply His logic, but that by which He takes action (cf. Isa. 55:11). Likewise, Yochanan's assertion that by the Word everything was made that has existance has parallels in the rabbinic literature, where God creates the world by means of an eternally-existant Torah.
I don't think we realize how much of the NT has its origination in first-century Jewish rabbinical thought. That's hardly surprising, since Yeshua Himself was regarded as a rabbi (despite a lack of formal training and ordination) and taught like one, even engaging the Pharisees in rabbinical debate over halakha (applying the Torah; tradition).
Trust me, I don't just take anything the rabbis wrote as gospel--any more than I do the ECF or Calvin--and I've found both sides to be equally guilty of creative exegesis under the influence of the sacrimental wine, so to speak. I regard them all as useful sources for historical background, linguistic study, and ideas, but it is ultimately the Bible to which we always return as our final authority.
And I think we're both agreed on that.
I appreciate, as always, your ability to voice a concern or objection without being contentious. God bless, and L'shana tova u-metukah.
From post #97:
One in which the nodes of the plants have been heated and often somewhat exploded by extremely brief microwaves; wherein within the circles there is a microdusting of extremely fine iron particles; and within the circles there's a significant difference in the magnatism of the soil vs outside the circle.
I think there are some other scientifically verified differences but those are the basic ones off the top of my head. This has been published in peer reviewed scientific journals, BTW.
The hoaxer's circles have none of the above.
My next one is 60. Still hard to believe.
And you received your answer. Moving on . . .
No, Saturday is the birtday of our friend, 1000silverlings.
You don't post like a day over 29. 8~)
No I received no answer. Respect for the name doesn't cut it. You're trying to communicate to people who know the Messiah as Jesus. Why not call Him Jesus? Both name refer equally to the same presence.
I'll tell what I suspect; I've seen similar tactics before. I've used them.
The obscure reference sets you apart as a closer and more knowledgeable authority. A similar technique has been used by actors in pronouncing historical names, like pronouncing the Egyptian queen's name NeferTERI instead of NeferTITI. The technique seeks to imply a greater authority to the speaker than would be ordinarily gained from standard reference.
Phrases in Latin and other foreign languages impart the same thing. I use those myself for the same reason.
The problem with this reference is that it is an attempt to gain yourself from readers, not more authority of man's knowledge, but more authority of the knowledge of God. I run into to this all the time, especially from Jews who have come to the knowledge that Jesus was the Messiah.
I don't buy it, so I call you on it. You obfuscate instead of owning up to it after have been given several chances.
I believe that God blesses humility and condemns arrogance. The scriptures bear me out. But that's your problem; I just point it out.
Point the second: Nobody else seems to be confused by my use of Yeshua instead of Jesus. Therefore, your protest that someone might misunderstand me rings a little hollow.
Point the third: Having received my explanation for my custom multiple times on this thread and others, you call me a liar. Using the Lord and His Apostles' Hebrew names is not a matter of self-elevation. Perhaps you should stop claiming to see into the hearts of those you know only through their words on a computer screen, and accept their explanations at face value.
If we're going to play this game, let's put the shoe on the other foot: I've seen tactics similar to yours before. You dislike the content of the article, but having no reply to any of the substance of the arguments contained within, you have decided to find some nit to pick about the author--in this case, myself. It's called an ad hominem ("against the man").
You have received my explanation. You understand my explanation perfectly well. You just don't like it. Sorry, but I'm not changing: Our Lord was born under the name Yeshua, a Second Temple period variant of Y'hoshua, a name which was prophesied to Him four centuries before (Zec. 6:11-13). There is nothing wrong with with transliterating His Name, as the Apostles themselves did--but neither is there anything wrong with using the Name by which He was called for the 33 years that He walked this earth in such a fashion that people know what it is.
God knows the heart. He knows the heart of a person who receives salvation in the name of Jesus, and of those like myself who are called to emphasize the Jewish roots of the faith.
Wellllllllll, SILVERLINGS,
Congrats to youuuuuuuuuuuuuu, then!
Hmmmmm. Welllll in my menality region . . . I still FEEL like I'm in undergrad school.
A lot of the rest of me is fairly battle worn in a list of ways, though! LOL.
Glucosamine etc. helps!
yippee, cake!
Thank you Quix, you can have some cake and eat it too, lol.
I suppose it's not much different than using Aristotle or Plato - selectively - to support Christianity. The Early Church Fathers made extensive use of those philosophers.
I appreciate, as always, your ability to voice a concern or objection without being contentious.
I appreciate that. Simple fact of the matter is that you've always been good to correspond with, and while I disagree with you, its based on ideas, not personality. Your insights have always been interesting, even if from different assumptions than mine.
No, not at all. At worst, it could be pretentious, although I would not attribute that to you. Instead, it is due to your affinity for the Hebrew background of the New Testament. Now, personally, I believe your extent of affinity is a little extreme, but Mr. Terrell has completely missed the mark in attributing the motivation of self-elevation.
neither is there anything wrong with using the Name by which He was called for the 33 years that He walked this earth in such a fashion that people know what it is.
And yet, the New Testament saw fit to Hellenize the name....? Perhaps the Anglicization is not such a bad thing?
My friend, I honestly believe your writings are detracted by needless Hebraisms. Now, I would say the same thing if it were Grecisms - I am bothered by those who unnecessarily use Greek words if they add little to the conversation. Or by those who unnecessarily use legalese when it is not needed. Of course, terms of art or key words that need to be translated to amplify a particular point should always be fair game. But I would challenge yout consider trying a few of your essays without the Hebraisms. I bet you will see see it makes them less distracting.
Whether you are a liar is not for me to answer. A person need not be aware of the foundation beneath his actions. Sometimes it's deeply ingrained by traumatic events or rearing. That's my opinion. That opinion comes from one who is tempted that way much and has given in more than once, so it irritates me when I see it.
My main twitch, though, is using methods to gain deeper color of authority on spiritual matters. I know some Protestant ministers who tend to use a similar oar. Not to speak of televangelists. I'm an equal opportunity judger.
I can say my first question was just from seeing people write using Yeshua and wondering, why just not use Jesus, by which name He's well known to the world?, then moving on to something else. First chance I've had to ask.
The rest came out of the conversation and other posts.
If you feel you'll be judged or though less of by God for your lack of respect to Christ by calling Him Jesus instead Yeshua, I don't have or ever have had that belief. Maybe that's why I see the other side.
Being what I think about the usage is correct, I don't think it's good.
Your name in Spanish is Guillermo. But, if you were good friends with a Spaniard, he would probably call you William.
If it's not fruit cake . . . you can have it all. LOL.
Now who will be the first one to say
"That figures!" LOL.
May your intimacy this coming year with your loved ones be double your wildest dreams and hopes.
And with God, quadruple.
Thanks for the excellent article. Trumpets is indeed a glorious, holy day full of meaning. When Christ returns, at the last trumpet, we will indeed be resurrected to glory.
Looking forward to future Atonement and Tabernacles installments.
And have I ever said it was? :^)
But I would challenge yout consider trying a few of your essays without the Hebraisms. I bet you will see see it makes them less distracting.
Again, I'm not seeing all that many people who find them distracting and bothersome. In fact, quite a few seem to like it. Those that object are pretty much confined to one small circle who have already decided in their minds that I'm a heretic and are just looking for nits to pick.
Because you've asked in love and lateral respect, I'll definitely consider your request in prayer--though I'll say that it was prayerful consideration that led me to start up the Hebraisms in the first place. But until and unless the Spirit leads me to change my practice, I'd greatly appreciate it if everyone would just accept it as one of my little quirks and actually comment on the substance of my arguments.
I don't think that's unreasonable.
Post #120: Simple fact of the matter is that you've always been good to correspond with, and while I disagree with you, its based on ideas, not personality. Your insights have always been interesting, even if from different assumptions than mine.
Ditto, my friend.
There is obviously a difference in the way the parties are approached by the media - but I'm not sure whether the reason is physical or spiritual. Thanks for the ping!

= = = =
Not sure what you mean physical . . . do you mean in the natural realm vs the spiritual?
Certainly it's spiritual--at least. I don't think any major thing on this planet currently is devoid of a significant spiritual component--if such was ever the case.
If you mean in the natural . . . evil men driven by demonic forces are wholesale trying to rush the planet into the global government. This is no longer a question. There's no longer any doubt for folks who are well informed, paying attention or even "just" praying earnestly and listening to Holy Spirit.
So, at some level satan's stool pigeons do effect many things in the natural in natural ways. But, I don't think--it's ever without spiritual forces tagging along and for more than just window dressing or neutral effect.
It was sloppy, but the point is simply this: the media's behavior may be their behaving like the liberals they are --- or, it could be just one of many parts in an end time scenario playing out in front of us. If so, then Praise God! Maranatha, Jesus!
True. true.
Though given all the givens . . . I think it's more than the media just being liberals. And, I think if you prayerfully ponder it, you'll feel the same way.
For example, why virtually no mention of the scarier aspects of Iranian nut job and Chavez nut job's speech content in the MSM? Who gave that order? Why?
I am in great need of much more sweetness and much more wisdom, dear Quix!

Obviously . . . join the club! LOL.
I didn't read your whole post, but just skimmed over it...it looks like a great read! I did go to your church web site, and all I can say is WOW! It is such a rush to my soul every time I come across Messianic Jews! We had a Lady come to our church and explain the symbolism of the Sedar meal....It leaves you breathless to see the amazingness of God.
Keep up the good work!
Brother in Christ.
Why thank you Quix, that's very kind of you.
Well, when you put it that way, I'd have to say "okay". Nothing wrong with quirky, I like quirky. Thanks for pinging me by the way.
I had a post from way back when. You might take a look at it.
Star Traveler
Indeed, I think they are driven. Thank you for your reply!
I sometimes type Jesus and other times Yehoshua, though I suppose Joshua would be more correct over Jesus since there was no J common in the English language until around the 16th century. Prior to that time, those words now shown with a J were pronounced as though the J was a Y. So 'Joshua', even in English, is proven conclusively to be (Yeshua, Yahshua, or Yehoshua) when the original Y sound is used. Thus, it is impossible for 'Jesus' to be anything close to the true name, because the 'J' sound did not exist when he was alive.
Mat 23:23
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier [matters] of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
He placed 'moral' law above 'ceremonial' law. This is why some 'thought' that he 'broke' the law. You have to remember that Jesus taught in a period of transition, during the development of different schools of interpretation in Judaism. It is inevitable that there would be variant interpretations of the Law as recorded in the Gospels. With the Pharisees, Jesus accepts the Law of the Sabbath; he differs only in the interpretations of that law as found in the Oral Law. The Oral Law detailed the many conditions that allowed for the breaking of the Sabbath.
For example, the Rabbis of the Hillel School of Pharisaism declared that is was permissible to violate the Sabbath to preserve life, that in doing so you violate a Sabbath to ensure the observance of future Sabbaths. This was accepted interpretation by the Hillel Pharisees of which Jesus belonged, but not to the Shammai Pharisees or the Sadducees who were ultra-strict, always adhering to the 'letter of the Law' over the 'spirit of the Law' (Oral Law). It has been said that in elevating the spirit of the Law over the letter of the Law one can understand the minimizing of the ceremonial laws. But it is not that simple according to Jesus. As gentiles, we are not aware that the Oral Law brought a proper understanding to the Written Law if matters were in doubt.
These (least commandments) you ought to have done, without neglecting the others (grave-weightier commandments). In drawing such a contrast, Jesus does not annul the Written Law (613 laws), nor even the ceremonial laws; he only brings priority to the obedience of all the Laws. Jesus did not stand against the Written Law or Oral Law, nor even Pharisaism, but only against the elevation of the 'letter of the Law' above the 'spirit of the Law'.
Rev 2:19
I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last [to be] more than the first.
Notice that works is mentioned twice. The 'moral laws' and 'ceremonial laws'.
So, you think that Jewish parents, that were strong adherents to the Judaic principles and lived in a Jewish contextual setting would give their son a Greek name?
Which seems odd, since YHWH wanted us to use and call Him by Name.
Exodus 3 (JPS Tanach - 1917 - Divine Name Restored)
(15) And God said moreover unto Moses: 'Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel: YHWH, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you; this is My name for ever, and this is My memorial unto all generations.
Exodus 6
(2) And God spoke unto Moses, and said unto him: 'I am YHWH; (3) and I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as God Almighty, but by My name YHWH I made Me not known to them. (4) And I have also established My covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojournings, wherein they sojourned.
Exodus 9
(13) And YHWH said unto Moses: 'Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto him: Thus saith YHWH, the God of the Hebrews: Let My people go, that they may serve Me. (14) For I will this time send all My plagues upon thy person, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like Me in all the earth. (15) Surely now I had put forth My hand, and smitten thee and thy people with pestilence, and thou hadst been cut off from the earth. (16) But in very deed for this cause have I made thee to stand, to show thee My power, and that My name may be declared throughout all the earth.
8034 Hebrew - shem {shame}
1) name

b) reputation, fame, glory
c) the Name (as designation of God)
d) memorial, monument
2Ch 7:14
(14) if My people, upon whom My name is called, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their evil ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Jeremiah 23
(26) How long shall this be? Is it in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies, and the prophets of the deceit of their own heart? (27) That think to cause My people to forget My name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers forgot My name for Baal.
Zechariah 13:9
(9) And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried; they shall call on My name, and I will answer them; I will say: 'It is My people', and they shall say: 'YHWH is my God.'
These are just a couple of examples, but, it's clear that YHWH was concerned that people would forget His name. Oddly enough 'YHWH' is removed from most texts and the pagan god 'Baal' is left in.
We celebrated The Feast of Trumpets today for the first time. This is actually the second Feast Day my family and I have celebrated. It just made sense to me. So many Sunday keeping and even Sabbatarian churches look forward to the return of our Lord, but to actually celebrate a Holiday in honor of the Advent, to hear the scriptures prophesying it, to hear the scrptures of the new earth, and in a room with so many like minded Christians, was very fulfilling.
Why do you have to turn something as sacred as a Jewish holy day into psuedo mithraism? Give you Jewish brothers a break.
You're right, it's a day so full of significance and history. I'm awed that we celebrate the same day that God commanded to be kept thousands and thousands of years ago.
You missed the point, but thanks for playing.
And in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work. For you it is a day of blowing the trumpets. You shall offer a burnt offering as a sweet aroma to the Lord: one young bull, one ram, and seven lambs in their first year, without blemish. Their grain offering shall be fine flour mixed with oil: three-tenths of an ephah for the bull, two-tenths for the ram, and one-tenth for each of the seven lambs; also one kid of the goats as a sin offering, to make atonement for you; besides the burnt offering with its grain offering for the New Moon, the regular burnt offering with its grain offering, and their drink offerings, according to their ordinance, as a sweet aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord.And you made an offering by fire to celebrate this day as it was commanded to be kept thousands of years ago?
Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.
Heb 13:9 Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.
Heb 13:10 We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.
Heb 13:11 For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.
Heb 13:12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.
Heb 13:13 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
Heb 13:14 For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
Heb 13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

Heb 13:17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.
Heb 13:18 Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.
Heb 13:19 But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
Heb 13:20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
Heb 13:21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
Heb 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Heb 10:11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
Heb 10:12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God;
This doesn't mean that the day is done away with, but under the new covenant, it's observance has been modified. If you still have trouble understanding, then I would suggest reading all of Hebrews.
I doubt that they did.
Jeremiah 7
22 For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:
23 But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.
24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
Hosea 3
4 For the children of Israel shall sit solitary many days without king, and without prince, and without sacrifice, and without pillar, and without ephod or teraphim;
5 afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek YHWH their God, and David their king; and shall come trembling unto YHWH and to His goodness in the end of days.
Hosea 6
6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
Hosea 14
2 Take with you words, and return unto YHWH; say unto Him: 'Forgive all iniquity, and accept that which is good; so will we render for bullocks the offering of our lips.
Prayers instead of sacrifices.
(JPS) Isaiah 1
10 Hear the word of YHWH, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.
11 To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto Me? saith YHWH; I am full of the burnt-offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he-goats.
12 When ye come to appear before Me, who hath required this at your hand, to trample My courts?
13 Bring no more vain oblations; it is an offering of abomination unto Me; new moon and sabbath, the holding of convocations -- I cannot endure iniquity along with the solemn assembly.
14 Your new moons and your appointed seasons My soul hateth; they are a burden unto Me; I am weary to bear them.
15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide Mine eyes from you; yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear; your hands are full of blood.
16 Wash you, make you clean, put away the evil of your doings from before Mine eyes, cease to do evil;
17 Learn to do well; seek justice, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith YHWH; though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land;
20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword; for the mouth of YHWH hath spoken.
These verses in my opinion really tell the story. YHWH asks them 'who told them to sacrifice animals?' He calls them vain oblations. Why? Some claim its is because the people were not contrite, but I disagree. The iniquity among the solemn assembly IS the oblations. YHWH tells us it is because the people are doing it for themselves (vanity) of their own accord and not YHWH's. YHWH calls them an abomination. It is my belief that this IS why the Temple keeps getting destroyed. Because YHWH considers the sacrifices an abomination. YHWH even tells them that they have blood on their hands.
Psalm 51
16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
1 Samuel 15:22
And Samuel said: 'Hath YHWH as great delight in burnt-offerings and sacrifices, as in hearkening to the voice of YHWH? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
Psalm 40
6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
Micah 6
6 'Wherewith shall I come before YHWH, and bow myself before God on high? Shall I come before Him with burnt-offerings, with calves of a year old?
7 Will YHWH be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my first-born for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?'
8 It hath been told thee, O man, what is good, and what YHWH doth require of thee: only to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God.
Throughout the Jewish scriptures, the prophets declared that repentance and charity are more pleasing to God for atonement than a blood sacrifice. I think there is good indication that sacrifices were never meant to be. Jeremiah 7:22-24. But, since they were utilized, against YHWH's wishes, I think sacrifices were to be replaced with PRAYER! Hosea 14:2.
Notice also the verse about how YHWH doesn't require the sacrifice of a firstborn for the transgression of sin -- atonement! SPEAKS VOLUMES.
Jeremiah 31:2 Thus saith YHWH: the people that were left of the sword have found grace in the wilderness, even Israel, when I go to cause him to rest.
God promises the descendants of Israel who, through captivity, exile, and intermarriage with Gentiles became assimilated and inculturated Gentiles today that they will find "grace in the wilderness".
The exile mentioned in Isaiah
From the JPS (1917) Jewish Bible Tanakh Their exile was their atonement. No blood.
8 In full measure, when Thou sendest her away, Thou dost contend with her; He hath removed her with His rough blast in the day of the east wind.
9 Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be expiated, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in pieces, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more.
Their exile was their atonement. No blood.
Of course it does. Hebrews does not indicate the day was merely changed. It indicates the day was abolished with the passing away of the old covenant with the priesthood and sacrificial rituals.
"For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more." In that He says, "A new covenant," He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away." (Heb. 8:12,13)
All of the pold covenant ritual days passed away. There is no other way to read the words written in Hebrews.

3D Printing at the Athens-Clarke County Library
The Digital Media Center has a Makerbot available for 3D printing. Please read through the following procedures and guidelines for more information. If you have questions, please contact the DMC.
- The 3D printer is available for public use on a first-come-first-served basis for public use only while a Digital Media Center staff member is in the Digital Media Center. The 3D printer is unavailable when the Digital Media Center is not staffed. Please check our calendar for staffed hours.
- Print jobs must be short enough to complete before the staff shift ends.
- On most days, staff shift times will limit print jobs to less than 4 hours.
- Staff must remain with the 3D Printer while in use in case of print failure.
- On weekends, print jobs must not keep the weekend staff member from taking his/her lunch break in a timely manner. Staff reserve the right to refuse a print job that will keep them from going to lunch.
- File preparation time must be factored into print time.
Using the Makerbot
The 5th Generation Makerbot Replicator has physical limitations on what it can and cannot print:
- The 3D Printer's build area is limited to 9.9 x 7.8 x 5.9 inches.
- The 3D Printer can only print in one color of filament per print job. The printing process cannot be stopped in order to change filament colors.
- Patrons are limited to filament colors on hand.
- Only library-purchased filament will be loaded into the 3D Printer. Patrons may not supply their own filament.
- 3D models must be provided in .stl format.
- The 3D printer cannot print files unless they have been prepared in the Makerbot software. A computer with the Makerbot software installed must be available in order for the patron to begin printing. If all computers are taken, patron must wait his/her turn.
- Patrons must use the Makerbot software in the Digital Media Center to prepare their files as the version of the software must match the version of the firmware currently installed on the 3D printer. Failure to match versions can result in damage to the extruder.
- Staff may make suggestions regarding print settings, but patrons are responsible for choosing the settings which will give them the finished result they seek.
Fees for Use
The Library will charge a fee based on the grams of filament used to create the 3D printed object:
- The fee is $0.15/gram of filament.
- Objects will be rounded to the nearest gram for pricing purposes.
- In the case of print failure, the patron's money will be refunded.
- If the print failure is determined to be caused by a malfunction of the printer (filament clog, extruder malfunction, etc.), the patron may retry the print if there is enough time remaining.
- If staff determine that the printing fault lies with the model itself, for example: print settings did not include raft, support, or bridge options to print difficult geometry, or model contains flaws which prevent successful printing, then patron will be required to revise the model to address any issues prior to re-printing.
- If a patron chooses to cancel their print job while in progress, fees will not be refunded.
Legal Limitations
The 3D printer may not be used for unlawful purposes including, but not limited to, the following content:
- Prohibited by local, state or federal law.
- Unsafe, harmful, dangerous or poses a threat to the well-being of others.
- In violation of another's intellectual property rights
Supervision of the use of the 3D printer by Library staff does not constitute knowledge, or acknowledgement, of any intended use of the 3D product, and the Library specifically disclaims any knowledge thereof. Patrons may use their 3D objects for purposes other than display at their own risk.
PrivacyThe 3D Printer is located within public view and the Library cannot guarantee that any particular print will not be seen by members of the public.
Where do I find 3D models?
Thee follow list is of free programs for you to create your own 3D models:
- Tinkercad - entirely online!
- SketchUp - requires download and installation
- Blender - requires download and installation
The following sites have downloadable 3D object files for free. Some are from educational institutions, and some are from online communities of hobbyists. Be aware that these objects (especially from hobbyists) vary in quality and/or may be optimized for a different 3D printer and may not print as expected.
- Smithsonian Institution - A variety of models based on historical or natural history artifacts in the Smithsonian collection.

I know there are many single moms out there that long to have a husband around to help and provide. I feel guilty because I have a husband who is kind and sweet and a good provider.
I often catch myself thinking it would be easier if he weren't around. He doesn't help with baby, makes additional messes, doesn't help clean, and wants to spend time with me after I finish everything he doesn't help with. I feel like I live in the 50s, just without the neighborhood of women to identify with me.
Am I just asking for too much?

The iPARS app, based off of a Parallel Analysis of RNA Structure (PARS) experiment published in 2010, plans to woo users with RNA. As the introduction page explains, "If you are a molecular biologist, you can use this application to access the structural profiles of over 3,000 yeast transcripts. If you're not, don't worry—this app will turn you into one…" The app provides a FAQ page to initiate the RNA neophyte, answering questions such as "What is RNA?" The "featured page" highlights approximately a dozen RNAs. Upon selecting one, users can select the "structure" button to explore the RNA structure at the nucleotide level. One limitation of the app is that, aside from the featured RNAs, there is no way to browse the contained structures; rather, a search feature is available.

ALBANY-As part of legislation intended to provide property tax relief to homeowners in New York City, the New York State Legislature on Monday enacted the most fundamental overhaul to the J-51 tax abatement program in nearly two decades. The focal point of the J-51 reform is to increase the city's stock of affordable housing. The measure now goes to Gov. Andrew Cuomo for his signature.
The J-51 overhaul is aimed at reviving a state program that expired at the end of 2011. Under the new proposal, tax benefits will no longer be available to developers that are converting commercial buildings to residential use unless those conversions receive "substantial governmental assistance," according to a release. In other words, eligibility means participating in programs aimed at preserving or creating affordable housing.
Under existing J-51 law, only cooperative and condominium units with an assessed value of less than $40,000 are eligible for J-51 benefits, meaning that the program already is aimed at homeowners with moderately valued units. The new measure will further limit any benefits to co-ops and condos valued between $30,000 and $40,000 to units receiving substantial governmental assistance.
The intent is reduce the cost of the J-51 program to New York City. As a result, the city can increase the Certified Reasonable Cost schedule of allowable reimbursable expenses to provide greater incentives for landlords to use the J-51 program; this in turn will increase the number of units subject to rent regulation.
The bill also encourages the inclusion of affordable housing in some new luxury construction now under way in Manhattan. Five projects in Midtown and Lower Manhattan are grandfathered into the 421-a tax abatement and exemption program. Otherwise, the receipt of 421-a benefits would trigger a requirement that the developers also build affordable units.
In a statement, Mayor Michael Bloomberg says the legislation will "help incentivize residential building owners to make improvements on their properties—fixing essential, building-wide systems and improving the long-term stability of buildings. It will also allow for more streamlined administration of the program, which will provide for quicker application approval times and greater transparency. That's great news for New York City's tenants: it means they will have access to safe, affordable and decent housing for years to come."
In addition, the legislation expands New York City's Loft Law by increasing the ability of loft tenants and landlords to register their units and to transition the units to building-code compliance and rent-regulated status. It lowers the threshold for Loft Law protection from the current 500 square feet to 400 square feet. The current threshold prevents a substantial number of more affordable lofts from registering, the release states.
In addition, the proposal reduces the percentage of rent increases a landlord may impose when reaching various points in the process. This provision is intended to acknowledge that the initial rents for lofts now entering the system are significantly higher than they were when the original Loft Law was enacted in 1982.

Who is I?
In the Now. I am of true boi essence.
A writer, a recluse, abandoned only of fate: Destiny ever alluring in the palm of my hand.
Limited only by my own inabilty to be present in only one consciousness.
I am split between reality strings.
A permeant spectre, caught betwixt parallel dimensions.
At times incoherrant, lost in esoteric translation.
I am physic(al) – I of breath + flesh, perception being my holster, corruption my armoury.
Intuitively, i am harmonious, sanctonious, welcoming of illuminations and the darker side of each unfettered moon.
Awareness sleeps by my side. Each waking minute guarded. of commonality.
I am enlightened.
I am bouyant.
mobile, fluid-like in kinesis.
Conventional existense being the foundation over which i fly.
Arms outstretched, willing risk to be my pull.
Enticing Love to be my drag.
balance, mediums, equilibrium.
Lifted high amidst winds roaring with possibility.
I am stark in naked complication, although often prone to cover up in cynical, self critical analysis.
I am given of self; being the taker a refreshing discourse to which i stray accordingly.
Of culture i am a liar.
By nature i tend towards honesty only straying when survivalistic path need tread.
I am of blood,
private yet optimistically open to scarring.
By custom i am trained, civil, content.
Of instinct; native raw tongue, i am rampant, rapid in force, compelled to grow then emerge.
To submerge
is to take full scope.
i am telescopic
in view of A/all else to which i drown my vision.
I am unsure if i am young,
Although certain that my passage is still being lit by the glow of its entrance, dark passageways luring with their shadows and cavernous corners.
I am liberal, random in speculatory silence. I am idle, often motivated by industrial desire.
Mechanical in process, structured of cerebreal architecture, yet somewhat discombobulated in particularity.
Sporadic be my strain, its think tank choking always on the weeds of sorrow.
Essentially i am nothing: yet overwhelmingly everything.
I was
I am
I will
therefore i
to i as
A/all and nothing.
As yesterday is to tommorrow, and visa versa, i am a window, a door, a channel:
as closed as i am open.
Dependant only on my own deliverence of influence and potential.
Driven by the promise of future and the demands of my past.
I am a vehicle in time, my presence, my motion, my journey
is I.
