The recent NFL controversy—which is spreading to other venues too—concerning the appropriate posture during the national anthem got my mind running in so many different directions.
First, there is the liturgical path I went down. We are liturgical beings and therefore we need structure and order and routine. It's just what we do. It's who we are. It's all around us if we will look around and see. We need it. We crave it. As such the national anthem serves as the liturgical call to worship of all American sporting events. Very interesting.
Second, I got thinking about the nature of this national anthem itself—this cultural call to worship—and what protests to it signified. Far more than a set of beliefs one is called upon to affirm intellectually, the protests to the national anthems reveal that the American anthem that signals the beginning of the contest is actually a declaration of allegiance to the country. As one stands at attention, with hand over heart, one is not just listening to a song but pledging allegiance to the nation who is represented by that song. And hence the protests—"I won't pledge allegiance to this nation"—and the response to the protests—"how dare they not pledge their allegiance to this nation?"
From here my mind was drawn back to an interesting book I had read some time ago by Mark Bates: Salvation by Allegiance Alone: Rethinking Faith, Works, and the Gospel of Jesus the King. Those reading the book from a reformed perspective will find plenty to quibble over, but they will also find some very interesting insights and provocative suggestions. One such suggestions has to do with the use of the Apostles' Creed in worship services.
I have written about the use of creeds generally and about the use and meaning of the Apostles' Creed specifically elsewhere. When I have done so I have usually done so from the perspective of a confession. In other words, this documents is an expression of what I believe to be true. These are the facts of Christianity to be affirmed. And that's good and right.
Mark Bates, however, encourages us to take the use of the Apostles' Creed a step further and think of the creed and use the creed in a manner something akin to a Christian pledge of allegiance, "…the creed is not a mere statement of common belief but is the allegiance-demanding good news" (p. 211). To that end his suggestion.
Each week children in the United States place their hand over their hearts, face the flag, and pledge allegiance. Other countries have similar allegiance ceremonies—and all of us who participated in such ceremonies as children…can attest to their power for creating and maintaining loyalty. The Apostles' Creed needs to be mobilized so that it functions like a flag pledge—to become the Christian pledge of allegiance for the universal church (p. 210).
Rather than merely parroting some words passed down through the generations, our confession of faith is a pledge of allegiance to king Jesus. This is what we believe. This is what we live for. This is what we die for. This is what we stand for. Used in this way, the Apostles' Creed has the power to create and maintain loyalty to King Jesus and promote unity among his followers.

Data mining applications are called to extract descriptive patterns, typically used for decision making, from the data contained in traditional databases and recently also from other unconventional information systems such as the web.
Examples of these applications are the market basket analysis, that extracts patterns such as association rules between purchased items, sequential patterns (that extract temporal descriptions between observed events), classification, clustering and link analysis as in Quinlan (1993) and Agrawal, Imielinski, and Swami (1993) (that provide, in other words, user profiles, text mining, graph mining, and so on). Furthermore, these patterns can be used to give an explanation of the patterns themselves. In this case the data patterns are considered as data to be analysed (and not necessarily with the same analysis tool that was used to obtain them).
Inductive databases have been launched in Imielinski and Mannila (1996) as general-purpose databases in which both the data and the patterns can be represented, retrieved, and manipulated with the goal to assist the deployment of the knowledge discovery process (KDD). Thus, KDD becomes a querying sequence in a query language designed for a specific data mining problem (Boulicaut, Klemettinen, & Mannila, 1998). Consequently, an inductive database should integrate several heterogeneous data mining tools that deal with very different heterogeneous and complex data models. For example, source raw data may be represented as flat tables, or, nowadays, by loosely structured documents containing data coming from the Web as well. Also, the conceptual models are different: classification tools usually adopt a data model that is a classification tree, while basket analysis usually represents patterns by means of set enumeration models.
In this chapter, we propose a semi-structured data model specifically designed for inductive databases and, more generally, for knowledge discovery systems. This model is called XDM (XML for data mining). It is based on XML and is devised to cope with several distinctive features at the same time (Bray, Paoli, & Sperberg-McQueen, 1997).
At first, it is semi-structured, in order to be able to represent an a-priori infinite set of data models.
Second, it is based on two simple and clear concepts, named Data Item and Statement: a data item is a container of data and/or patterns; a statement is a description of an operator application.
Third, with XDM the inductive database state is defined as the collection of data items and statements, and the knowledge discovery process is represented as a set of relationships between data items and statements.
Fourth, it provides a definition of the database schema by means of the set of integrity constraints over inputs and outputs for operators. Moreover, it constitutes the meta-data of the KDD process (i.e., in terms of the kind of data produced by the operators). The database schema was obtained with the aid of XML-schema, which makes possible to define constraints that must hold on some specific data items or operators, thus ensuring a certain level of correctness of data and patterns. XML-schema specifications constrain the structure of XML documents and overcome the limitations of classical XML DTDs, by adding the concept of data type for attributes. Refer to Thompson, Beech, Maloney, and Mendelson (2001) and Biron and Malhotra (2001) for detailed descriptions on XML-schema.
The above discussed features of the model set the foundations to achieve operator interoperability within a unique framework (provided that the various operators' API are XML compliant). Finally, the adoption of XML as syntactic format provides several benefits; in particular, the concept of namespace opens the way to the integration of several data formats and operators inside the same framework (Bray, Hollander, & Layman, 1999).
XDM provides several interesting features for inductive databases:

Interpretive Summary: Effect of ruminal acidosis and short-term low feed intake on indicators of gastrointestinal barrier function in Holstein steers.I
By: Surely Wallace
In a study published in the Journal of Animal Science in February 2018, researchers looked at the effects of low feed intake (LFI) and rumen acidosis (RA) on gastrointestinal tract (GIT) barrier of Holstein steers.
Nutritional challenges such as RA and LFI may have economic impacts on the meat industry by reducing productivity and health of steers. Barrier integrity of the GIT affects nutrient absorption and immune function, among other factors. The authors hypothesized that RA and LFI would both reduce GIT barrier function in Holstein steers.
The study took place in Saskatchewan, Canada. Holstein steers of similar age and weight were randomly assigned to control, RA, or LFI groups (n = 7 each). Normal ad lib feed consisted of (dry matter) 50% grass hay, 38% barley grain, 4% canola meal, with the remainder nutritional supplement. All animals were given normal feed followed by a 5-day study period. Normal feed was continued ad lib in the control group. In the LFI group, ad lib feed was reduced by approx. 25%. In the RA group, animals were given 2 days normal feed, 1 day LFI, and pelleted barely over-feeding on day 4 to induce RA. Steers were slaughtered on day 5. The GIT was analyzed ex vivo for permeability; digesta was analyzed for pH and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) content.
Results indicated LFI steers weighed significantly less than controls (230 kg vs. 254 kg), with no difference between control and RA groups. In digesta, total reticulo-rumen SCFA concentration was greater in controls (~ 170 mM) than in the LFI and RA groups (< 100 mM). However, the authors note some SCFA ratios differed between treatment and controls. Rumen pH was decreased in the RA group and increased in the LFI group, compared to controls. In order to determine GIT permeability, mannitol/inulin flux rate, gene expression, and histological features of GIT were evaluated. The authors reported increased permeability of GIT in LFI (in proximal and distal colon) but not in RA groups; they attribute the latter to increased GIT barrier function gene expression. However, the authors also noted increased gene expression in the LFI group.
This small study suggests there may be complex interactions between gene expression and GIT barrier integrity in steers during LFI and RA nutritional challenges. The authors suggest that gut microbiome may additionally impact GIT barrier integrity, although they did not explore this specific area, so it is a question for future research. Overall, better understanding of the interaction between host, nutritional and potentially microbial factors is needed in order to find ways to prevent or treat negative impacts of LFI or RA in steers.

My favorite tools, part 1
mechanical chalk at a local shop called Charming Lulu. And it has become my favorite tool. I found the exact item on Amazon for a reasonable price and that is where the link will take you. You will see me using it a lot in my Craftsy class. I had it with me at Alice's yesterday when I was drawing up a new blouse pattern for her to sew for me. Now she wants one too, so I will be ordering one. Maybe I should get a few for gifts...

BT's Electronic Opus Comes to Pure Audio Blu-Ray!
Electronic Opus combines timeless dance music and film compositions from BT's catalogue with unique orchestral arrangements throughout the length of its track list, making the addition of a 9.1 Auro-3D transcendent in elevating the album's impressiveness for listeners. Auro's format transforms traditional audio through the addition of a key height layer that dramatically impacts clarity and draws out every nuance of a recording to create a fully immersive acoustic environment that envelops the listener from every direction. Electronic Opus contains some of electronic musics most seminal and celebrated anthems, including classics such as "Flaming June," "Satellite," and the theme music from the acclaimed Oscar winning motion picture, "Monster."
"As a producer-engineer and professional musician, I truly admire the fantastic way BT used the Auro-3D format to create so much more transparency in his arrangement of electronic sounds and orchestral music in Electronic Opus. It really gives rise to a much richer and much more emotionally poignant musical experience," says Wilfried Van Baelen, inventor of the Auro-3D format and CEO Auro Technologies. "It was a real privilege to work with BT and his team on revitalizing the record. He's an icon that's effectively blazed the trail for the EDM industry as we know it today, and this project symbolizes a bold and experimental entry in an already triumphant discography."
Before bringing Auro Technologies into the mix, BT's Electronic Opus began as a Kickstarter project in 2014 sparked by a collaboration between the artist and renowned video game composer Tommy Tallarico. The campaign saw resounding success as thousands of fans rallied to pledge over $250,000 to the then fledgling production, allowing BT to bring the album to life, recording alongside a full symphony orchestra in Prague.
The Auro-3D mix – by BT and Daniel Shores – was created at the Sono Luminus studio facility in Boyce, VA. This marks the 7th release Sono Luminus has produced that integrates Auro-3D.
"I could not have asked for a more professional and involved crew of engineers and technologists," says BT. "Auro Technologies laid the foundation for groundbreaking new way of experiencing audio, and as a musician who depends on the intricacies of sound as a medium for art, there is no better partner in the industry more equipped to help us shatter the conventions of audio delivery. Electronic Opus began as a marriage of music and technology, and the Auro-3D format helped us continue that path of innovation unhindered.
Founded in 2010, Auro Technologies provides 3D audio solutions to a variety of other cross-market verticals such as, Digital Cinema, Home Cinema, Mobile, Gaming and Automotive markets. To learn more about Auro Technologies, please visit www.auro-technologies.com.
The Pure Audio Blu-Ray (and a good old-fashioned Compact Disc) release of BT's Electronic Opus are available for purchase on Amazon and FineNight via Black Hole Recordings: https://bt.choons.at/electronicopus

The White House has struck a softer tone since then, delaying the imposition of some tariffs and signaling more meetings are planned. Meanwhile, a looming U.S. sanctions deadline is threatening to clobber Venezuela's dwindling fleet of rigs and hamper energy production further.

death angels
Death Angels
Angels are often portrayed as being something wonderful and beautiful. However, the images of death angels are anything but that. They are often a symbol of darkness and blackness there to take a life even if it isn't ready to let go yet. The pictures of the death angels are often very dark and scary. They may be of a skeleton or some other dark creature that you know instantly doesn't come for something good.
The term grim reaper is very often associated with death angels. Many people began looking more into this after the movie Meet Joe Black was released starring Brad Pitt. The beliefs that society have about death angels are very different from one culture to the next. Some view it is another part of the process of life, a necessary transition. Others view it as something to be feared.
This fear is believed to be the result of humans knowing that death is inevitable. It doesn't matter how successful or poor you are. Everyone will suffer that same fate at some time. The fear is also the result of so many people losing someone they love. They certainly aren't ready for it to happen. They may feel that they have been cheated of the time with that person due to the death angels.
For some people though, death angels can be something comforting. For example a person that has been suffering due to an illness is finally at peace. The death angels are believed to come and take the spirit of that person to heaven with them. It can be hard to let that person go but at the same time it is believed to be exactly what they need to rest peacefully. This is often a type of understanding of death that comes with being older and wiser.
There are plenty of references to the death angels in our society though. For example there are movies, art, books, and even video games that portray it. Generally it is associated with something evil. In the movie Ghost with Patrick Swayze the death angels are those that come for the bad people that die. They are dark black images that take the person off screaming in horror.

Tune in for Sunday's live stream on YouTube! This time I'm talking about all things jeans-making, which is a topic I am very interested in. Especially how we home sewists can recreate industrial finishing. Hopefully, I can also show you some freshly purchased denim from Copenhagen, as I'm going there this weekend and finding good quality jeans fabric is nearly impossible in Sweden. I hate hate hate the generic, low quality, jeans fabric they try to sell us in many fabric stores. As always, picking good quality fabrics is crucial for the end result.
Topics I plan to cover:
- Picking good quality jeans fabric
- My best pocket tips
- Industrial jeans making techniques
- How to topstitch jeans like a pro
- Sewing a jeans zipper
Plus whatever else comes up in the chat!
Also if you haven't already, I would be thrilled if you subscribed to my YouTube channel! I'm getting close to 10 000 subscribers and yesterday I got the somewhat unrealistic idea into my head that I could reach a 10 000 on Sunday and celebrate it with you in the live stream! Still, about 200 left before reaching that goal, but let's give it shot anyway!
When: 24th of June at 8.P.M CET/2 P.M EST
Watch: Link to the live stream (Your local time will be shown there)
Hope to see you there on Sunday!

Paradise Lost Detailed Summary Book II Part III, Paradise Lost by John Milton Detailed Summary
While the fallen angels are bearing the pain in hell, Satan has been on the move to find the way out of hell for accomplishment of his task to discover the abode of mankind and the means to corrupt him, the one born for the favours of God. When Satan reached the roof of hell, he observed such fearful creatures set on the gates of hell that those appeared more horrible than the hell itself. Satan advanced and was stopped by a bulky, dreadful creature which moved "with horrid strides, Hell trembled as he strode". Satan, pronouncing it a hellish creature, warned it not to interrupt his path. The creature replied "art thou that Traitor Angel" that intended to cause disruption in heaven and showed impudence to the Highest. It asks Satan to return back to the dungeon of hell:
"Where I reign King, and to enrage thee more,
Thy King and Lord? Back to thy punishment"
Before Satan and the creature begin to fight, Death intervenes and stops them. She tells Satan of the pains being borne by her since her demise and sad downfall of her. She tells of the agony she has been in and which forces her to eat up her own offspring and then to give birth to them again. Her offspring are the outcome of a rape by evil. God has banished them both to guard the gates of hell while she holds the key. Upon Satan's promise that he will provide her a peaceful abode with plenty to feed upon, she agrees to open the gates of hell against the orders of God.
After successfully escaping hell, Satan wanders about in the utter chaos and timeless space where he finds nothing of the sort he has hoped to. When tired of searching, he reaches Night, Chance, Orcus, Ades and Demogorgon and boldly questions them about the existence of men. Satan does not hide his intentions of creating disturbance in the newly created universe. Satan proposes Night that if he remains successful in the disturbance he aims at, it may:
"Erect the Standerd there of ANCIENT NIGHT;
Yours be th' advantage all, mine the revenge."
Upon seeing her "advantage" Night tells her of the path leading to the abode of mankind. Satan stays there awhile to amuse himself of the first step towards his goal of destroying the new creation of God while the poet comments that Satan is unaware of the fact that all is happening according the plan of God where he wishes to test the mettle and character of His new creation where the evil ones would be punished.
