This drip art activity is simple, colorful and fun to create. It requires no setup and its perfect for busy moms or a quick & fun activity on a playdate. Also a fun way for toddlers & preschoolers to learn about absorption.😀
What you need
- Cotton pad (make up remover pads)
- Water
- Food color
- Droppers
How to
- Take water in a small cup and mix 2-3 drops of food color to it. (We used blue, green, red & purple)
- Give the cotton pad and droppers to your kids.
- Let them use the droppers to drip colored water on the cotton pads to create patterns on them. Use a tray to hold spills. 👍
Using droppers develops fine motor skills. If your kids are small to handle droppers you could use paint brushes. You can use liquid water colors instead of food color. I got the cotton pads from dollar store and they were really absorbent. Absorbs alot of water.. Like a lot.. Also the colors don't mix. If you dripped some pink color on it and then some green, the green would displace the pink but will not mix. That creates beautiful patterns. Let it dry and use them for your art projects.
Miss A(3 yrs) was fascinated to use droppers. Shes getting a hold of them. Miss D(23 months) tried to use droppers, but it was more of dipping them in colors and then pressing them on the cotton pad. I really liked the beautiful patterns created. Unfortunately we couldn't save ours to let it dry. My LOs loved squeezing the fully soaked cotton pads and it dripped all brown. They loved playing with it – soaking it in the water and squeezing it out 😂😂. Luckily i clicked few pics before they started to play with it. Kept them busy for about half hour.

yesterday I turned 43!!!
43!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how did that happen ? I have found the last few week tough, I have no idea why this has been hard but it has. They keep moving middle aged but in my mind I am very much in the middle of my life. Being morbid if I get to live to 86 then it will have been a good innings. Cakes in the office on Friday went down a storm and it was nice to share "my happiness" but more importantly bring some happiness to the office on a Friday. I'm enjoying my job and really hope this turns into a long term gig.
Last night I had a party, pizza excess for sure including the Special Pizza hut pizza with a burger on the outside. Admit it you ALL know you want to try it. To be honest it is just a pizza with a burger on it. Cheesy balls are nicer!!! The evening was great with old friends and new ones in attendance. No surprise to say the conversation was around cycling and running. What else would I talk about? Rach made the most amazing cake with cyclists climbing a mountain and even had some classic cars on it. COOL HUH ?
Sometimes you forget how many people you know and I am looking forward to my birthday curry with the Oxford social crew next Friday to close off this period of excess and talk more rubbish :¬)
CycloX today didn't happen. I got up and I fixed my bike including getting the mud tyres on. Bob decided to come and watch me so we set off for Oxford, after 500 metres we had a car on our side of the road out of control coming towards us. Quick stop and idiot controls his car and rolls up the road. MORON!! We stopped briefly to pay respects with 2 minutes of silence on the A34. I think it is important to remember the fallen and my view on this will never change. We arrived at the venue around 11.25 and 15 mins later we gave up and headed home having not been able to park the car. Worse than that while trying to move around the carpark I hit a fence post straight on. Car will survive but that was me finished so I went home. In some ways I am not that bothered as I feel like crap anyway.
Clean living starts again tomorrow with operation skinnier rider in 2014 really starting to take off as my training volume also starts to pick up.

I work in development. When you work around the world, particularly in "developing countries" you're like the proverbial tree in the wind; if you're not flexible enough to bend then you're bound to break one day. Being flexible means understanding that things might happen slower than you expect (work projects, meetings not starting on time, long bus rides…), things that you once considered to be necessities are no longer available (hot showers, reliable electricity, clean drinking water), and the comforts that you use as a crutch at home when you need to have fun or cheer yourself up (for me – going to a movie theatre, ice cream, cheese, bacon, and cocktails) are not so easy to find. The more remote your location, and the less westernized the country you are living in, the more you will likely have to change your expectations.
Photos throughout this blog were taken on a day-long excursion from Bangkok, Thailand to Erawan Waterfalls and an elephant sanctuary, and feature my boyfriend (Stephen) and myself.
But eventually everyone does (those trees who don't break at least). You learn to live with what's around you. You're surprised if your meeting starts on time, you're confused if your bus only takes that amount of time listed on Google maps, and you're delighted if your lunch doesn't include rice!
However, one thing that all this acclimation doesn't do, is stick around forever. After a few hot showers, the novelty wears off. Once you eat a few delicious meals, they become common place. When you have reliable electricity, a short power outage becomes a huge surprise and seems to inconvenience your entire life. It actually takes a lot of work to continue to foster this sense of gratitude in your normal life.
This is why in Thailand I became a diva! After only 5 days of luxury, I had lost all of my "go with the flow" attitude. All of the perfectly paved roads, smiling strangers, bacon wrapped food, and easily accessible vodka coolers had lulled me into the false idea that everything was going on be perfect – exactly as I wanted and expected, all of the time.
So Sunday we had signed up for a day tour. We wanted to go to Erawan waterfalls, and originally the Hell Fire Pass (which seemed like an interesting historic railroad built by prisoners of war), which included visiting the Tiger Temple. However, the railroad part was too expensive, and Steve is scared of tigers (they ARE wild animals), so we ended up spending the afternoon with some elephants.
The morning didn't get off to a good start. Our pickup was at 6:30, and the alarm going off at 5:30 had already made me grumpy. Once in the car, we weren't given any information on what was happening. We stopped and drove around the city for about an hour… not really knowing what was going on. Eventually we found ourselves at the falls and a lady told us to get out. We left some stuff in the car, but I was worried our car wouldn't be there when we got back (since the group would be splitting up for the afternoon). I had to go to the bathroom, but the lady said we must follow her to the falls right away. I had forgotten my contacts in the car (since I was wearing my glasses to get some sleep) and I was upset about the idea of wearing my glasses swimming. I didn't have a chance to change into different clothes. She told us to be back by 1, but I had thought we'd get more time to hike to the top. Nothing actually horrible happened, but all the little things joined up to make me have a melt down. I thought the tour was horrible and I no longer wanted to swim or hike. Steve handled me well and was very sweet until eventually I calmed down and we went on a nice hike. It ended up being a fun day, a great opportunity to get some exercise and be outdoors in nature (instead of sucking in smog).
So, why did that freak out even happen?
I think gratitude and flexibility are like muscles. You need to work on them constantly or they'll atrophy. I did have a bit of a bad morning, but afterwards I was able to recall my inner strength and just try to have fun, no matter what the day had in store. Having crazy high expectations that will never be met is always a recipe for disaster… so lighten up, and try to always walk on the sunny side of the street. 🙂

Don't shoot the messenger, but tons of so called "connected sources" are stating that Saban going to Texas is a done deal. One so called connected source is Alabama's Chancellor.
As a Texas homer I would like for this to happen, but I still am not sure there's any traction to this story.
But this is a lot of smoke for nothing. Did Bammmer's recent reactions to the Iron Bowl sway Saban's thoughts on leaving Bama?

The second box subscription that was generous enough to choose me as one of their first representatives was Fantasy and Sci-Fi Books!!
I've been seeing this beautiful box around booktube and bookstagram a lot and I've been in love with the items from first glance. They always include a new YA release and I was excited to see what they would choose. I'm proud to be a rep for them and their box didn't disappoint!
You can find them on:
[Facebook] [Twitter] [Pinterest]
[Instagram] [Youtube] [Tumblr]
Now for the unboxing:
The theme for the month of May was: Fantasy! I am a complete fantasy-holic and proud of it! The genre is up there with romance for me; they share the #1 spot in my heart and I don't know if they will ever be trumped from their glory.
The book included in this box was The Star-Touched Queen by Roshani Chokshi! I've been seeing this beautiful book around bookstagram and I can't believe it's now in my possession. I can't wait to get around to reading it!
This book came with a beautiful matching & SIGNED bookmark as well:
The next item in the box were this beautiful Star-Touched Queen inspired temporary tattoos. I've already worn some and I can't wait to wear the rest.
They're so beautiful!
This box also included a pair of blue and red Wonder Woman socks! These look so beautiful and comfortable but I will be giving them away soon with a couple other items as well.
Stay tuned for that!
The next item in the box was this beautiful magnet of The Butterfly Code by Sue Wyshynski! That cover is gorgeous and definitely intriguing. I'll be adding the book to my TBR on it alone:
And now for my favorite item in this box, beside the book:
The anklet!!
I've already posted a picture on my Instagram with me wearing it and I mentioned that I will never take it off., which is true! I can't remember the last time I owned an anklet and I was pretty excited to receive one in this box. It's a double chain anklet with one chain containing a row of stars, tying in perfectly with the book:
There was some hair bling included as well. I'm slightly confused as to how to wear these (even after reading the instructions) but I might give them away with the Wonder Woman socks if I can't figure it out.
They look fun to wear though:
Now for the picture I took of all the items together:
For more information and to order your own amazing box, click [HERE]!
Thank you so much Fantasy and Sci-Fi Books for this amazing box! I can't wait to see what's in the next one! I'm so happy to work with you!

August 6, 2013 by Kara Nichols
+ I lost 13.8 pounds in the 4 weeks with Take Shape For Life (Medifast). I thought that the restrictions would be hard, but I've found that I actually enjoy having limits as opposed to Weight Watchers, where I felt it easy to forgo the rules and cheat here and there or just guess instead of measure out food. Medifast is way more expensive since I'm buying their food, but I think my health is worth the investment. I eat 5 small Medifast meals a day plus 1 meal that I cook which consists of 1.5-2 cups of vegetables (not all types veggies though) and 5-7 ounces of lean protein. My current favorite dish is baked tofu with stir fry vegetables. So yummy! I'm taking this program month by month. I don't want to project the amount I want to lose or say that I am married to Medifast, but for now it is really working for me. Many thanks to my Health Coach, Gina. If you're ready to lose some weight, contact her on Facebook.
+ I've started to exercise regularly again. I was so burnt out on work out videos and the treadmill that I decided to try water aerobics at my local YMCA. I was hooked the first time and I plan to go 3-5 times a week. I was surprised at how sore I was, and I kind of thought that aqua classes were just for old women, from precious experiences. But there were actually quite a few of people my age in the session. Men too! It's a great work out and I love being in the water.
+ At the beginning of July my whole family gathered to celebrate my dad's 70th birthday. We spent the week at Smith Mountain Lake and had a blast. I got my dad a shirt that says "It took me 70 years to look this good" and a small scrap book I put together with 70 reasons why I love him. It was really easy to come up with 70 reasons. He's rad. 🙂
Here's the original Nichols five together in the condo:
+ My new favorite tv show is the Pioneer Woman. It's a cooking show, and none of the dishes are ones I can eat right now, being that I'm on Medifast, but there is something special about this lady! I love her blog too. She's got a sweetness and light about her that is refreshing. She blogs, writes cookbooks, takes gorgeous pictures of her ranch, home schools her kids, and cooks cowboy friendly meals. In another life I wouldn't mind filling her boots. Except for the mornings she wakes up before dawn. A morning person I am not.
+ I've been reading lots of books lately. One that stick's out as a winner is The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. It's whimsical, magical, and fairytale-like. I highly recommend it.
+ I have searched high and low for a decent toner. And I finally found it! Lush's Eau Roma Water. What I love the very most is that you spray on the toner and let it soak in your skin. It's such

How the seed was planted.
In the name of independence and sustainability we have slowly been creating a small urban farm on our little plot of land in Denver.
The seeds for this urban farming dream were planted in my childhood. My mom is a damn hippie and, despite all of my resistance to this truth, I am almost exactly like her. When the two of us and my older brother, Farrell, are in the same room together we entertain everyone else with our eerie similarities. Have you ever seen the Coen brothers in an interview together? It's kind of like that.
Of course, it was impossible to see how amazing my mom was while I was growing up. As it is with most people, I couldn't appreciate my parents until I wasn't living with and depending upon them anymore. Now I know that they were not only good parents, they were excellent and I couldn't have asked for more.
My first inkling that I might have had an edge over some others in the parent department happened on my third day at college. I went to the basement of my dorm, Mc Cowen Hall (the one everyone on campus lovingly referred to as "Mc Compton" because of its condition) to do some laundry. There were two other girls in the laundry room. I didn't really pay attention to them at first. I was just excited to get my laundry washed so that I could put it into the dryer. My heart was a flutter at the thought of using a real dryer. Although we had owned a dryer and it worked perfectly fine, my damn hippie mom insisted on everything being hung. Even in winter. Our living room and dining room were perpetually covered in drying laundry hanging from every table, chair, open door and curtain rod available. Have I mentioned yet that we were super classy?
When I snapped back from my lusty dryer fantasy I realized that both girls were now standing next to me, eagerly observing my every move. The one that looked like Rose Mc Gowan said, "Do you know how to use a washing machine?" WHAT?!
"Um, yeah." I said, trying to not sound completely snotty.
"Can you teach us so we don't ruin our clothes?" They smiled and blinked in this way that made me think that these girls were the kind of girls that pretty much always get someone else to do their work for them. They both bobbed their heads up and down, pink Gap baseball caps moving in unison. I already didn't like them.
"You don't know how to use a washing machine?" I really couldn't believe it.
"Well. We've never done laundry before." They seemed surprised that I would expect them to know something as trivial as how to wash their own clothing.
"How did you get clean clothes?"
They exchanged confused glances. Rose Mc Gowan said, "My clothes were just in my closet." like it was a magic fairy trick that her closet performed.
"You've never washed, folded or put away your own clothes before?!" I was starting to get a little bit pissed. Why wouldn't someone teach them that? Why wouldn't their parents want them to have basic life skills? It had never occurred to me that there were people who didn't teach their kids those sorts of things.
They were starting to look embarrassed. With their eyes cast to the floor they simultaneously said, "No." Crap. Now I felt bad. It wasn't their fault. I wouldn't have ever done laundry if it wasn't assigned to me as a chore. That's when the feeling first hit me, my parents weren't just being jerks, they were teaching me how to live! Lucky me that I had to work so hard.
"Alright," I said, "let me show you how." They perked up as I demonstrated with my washer and then stood over them as they tried it out on their own washers. They were delighted at how easy it was. We made some small talk while I showed them the dryers. I was getting tingly. I had even driven to Target to buy dryer sheets just for the event. Dryer sheets!
"Where are you from?" The typical question was posed.
"Aspen." They said in unison. Of course.
I continued to have similar experiences in my first few months at UNC. It was a very foreign culture to me. This was the first time I had ever really been around people from the suburbs, and they freaked me out. Everyone seemed to care about things that didn't really matter to me, like what brand was printed across their chests.
Although I made many friends, I was really out of my element. This was due entirely to the way I was raised. I learned that I worked very hard compared to most of the people at school. I learned that most people's parents pay for their college education. This thought had never occurred to me before. But I also learned that I knew a lot of things that other people didn't and I had a lot more in the life skills department too.
My parents making me bust my ass in the house and around the yard, garden and orchard had actually been good for me. I also learned about money from my parents. They were very open about their own finances and it was pretty much always a struggle with six mouths to feed coupled with my dad's drag racing habit. My mom also sat me down and explained many things to me about money and where it goes.
I watched in horror as my friends all applied for credit cards and just started using them all over the place for everything. I applied for a credit card too. But I called my mom first and she told me to charge something big that I needed and could pay off with three payments and then after that use it once a month for a small purchase if I didn't have a big purchase to pay off. This would help me build credit. That's
what I did and she was right. My friends didn't get this sort of information from their parents. I couldn't understand for the life of me why not.
Thank goodness for my mom and dad.
My list of chores hung each day from the kitchen door. This dreaded list had a section for each of us four kids. Ugh. How I hated that list. I was WAY too punk rock for these chores. They were beneath me, I was certain of that. A sampling of the chores I was assigned:
- Oil the pig (yes this one means I literally took vegetable oil to a pig and wiped him down)
- Pick up rotten fruit from the orchard
- Weed the garden
- Gather and wash laundry
- Hang laundry outside (explain to me again WHY I can't put them in the dryer?!)
- Clean out the irrigation ditches
- Hunt for eggs on the property (okay, this one was always fun)
- Clean the turkey poop off the front porch
There were many more, but you get the idea. We worked hard as a family.
My mom was the cook and I spent a lot of time in the kitchen with her. I truly enjoyed cooking from a very young age. When we were latch key kids in elementary school, I always made after school snack for my siblings. They were happy to let me do the chore.
I spent a lot of time during summer vacation experimenting in the kitchen. I loved the summer because I could go out to the garden to search for inspiration. Looking back, I realize that I pretty much always made omelets and fancy quesadillas, but I was experimenting with various flavor combinations and learning the art of melding sensations on the palate. This exploration in cooking was heightened the summer I turned sixteen and became a vegetarian living in a cattle ranching community. If this vegetarian thing was going to work, I was going to have to feed myself.

still don't use my dryer 95% of the time… 🙂 and I just learned recently that farms all over the south have a mechanical device called a pig oiler – you fill it with oil and they rub up against it to scratch and get an oiling at the same time!
The fact that you actually read content that can bring you to discover a device such as a "pig oiler" leads me to feel completely validated in everything I wrote!

Ethan has rolled through Bananas, Peaches, Sweet Potatoes and now Green Beans! He is so funny to watch because his first bite of anything lets you know he is unsure, but then he gets the hang of it. Except for the first night of green beans. Ryan was out of town and missed the mess Ethan and I made! A little got on the carpet, but most of it stayed on him!
He would store most of the food in his mouth without swallowing, kind of like a horse, and then decide to spit all of it out at once! Thank you!!!

Ok so the title doesn't really make sense. My brain is exhausted. The show was mediocre at best today. Yesterday it was kind of blah as well. Hopefully tomorrow is better. Meeting day today. It was fine nothing major….except the idea of me just waving a magical wand to create things! Second meeting after the first, more headache and magic wand scheduled for me. I like my job I really do and I'm really learning a lot by doing the website. However, I'm STILL LEARNING I've not been trained in this or anything. I'm learning as I go basically. But sometimes its assumed that I can just create whatever needed or wanted and within seconds. I got most of the stuff done today that was asked but I've got quite a bit to work on still. More logos to create, more pages to create….and a little dare I say H-T-M-L.
So I've been getting the hang of simple HTML code and can manage our website pretty well and am doing new stuff all the time… however I'm no where near a HTMLer. SO if anyone is great at HTML or are an original HTMLer I could use your assistance. I'm ALMOST there…I've almost got figured out what I'm trying to do but I want to tweek 1 small part of it. I've read so many help pages and html codes and tested multiple ones today that I've got a headache and feel like I've gone insane. I'm giving it a rest and hopefully going to pick it up in a few hours and have it all figured out. riiiiiiiiight
Meanwhile I think I'll surf the internet in the comfort of my own home. ahhhhhhh luxury.

Clearly, a reprise is the best move here. Ace-King is likely to be significantly better than the range, with the raises the cut-off and with this hand you certainly interested in reducing the number of players. With ace-king will not make top pair and then compete against four or more opponents – because with so many players, it is considerably more likely that this top pair is beaten. One or a maximum of two opponents are far better and make the hand much more profitable and easier to play.
This would be a very favorable situation for the character, because this would look in a position flop with a hand that is probably stronger than his opponent is with a raise to 50 Man makes the cut-off much more difficult with a hand like ace-ten or king-queen to call. However, with this exact hands wants to lure him yes in the pot, so far there is such a large re-raise the risk of isolating themselves against better hands his range.
Four top pair
The protagonist decides to call. The players in the blinds fold, but two limpers (both have over € 500 in front of him) call. Therefore, you can see four of a flop. In the center are 43 and the board falls. After two checks, the cut-off 25 alludes.

She was no one's wife when she returned.
I'd prayed on her grave for it, of course, wordless and desperate and numb. The most dangerous kind of prayer, because it has no words and no terms and no limits – just need. Horrible, aching, eating need.
She was glorious, when she came back. Glorious as she ever was. I was standing by a fire at the side of the street, warming my arthritic hands. She marched by near the head of the army, young and fierce and laughing and beautiful. So very young. So very beautiful.
She didn't look twice at me, of course. Faded old man in a faded old coat, badges too tarnished and patches too faded to read anymore.
She was no longer my wife, and I was nothing to her, and I didn't even care, because that long moment of seeing her that way again was enough, and more than enough. It was everything I had needed for so, so very long.
When the rest of them walking behind came for us, I barely raised my stick against them. I would have stood still and let them take me if it hadn't been for the children.
As it was, I gave them a moment or two's head start before I fell. It was what my wife would have wanted, long ago.

First blog post...
Well, basically I just decided to start this blog as I have created a list of goals that I wish to achieve and wanted a way to keep track of things for myself and share my experiences with others. I made this list a couple of weeks ago and so have started to work on a few of them. Ideally I would like to put up a blog post everyday, either showing how I've achieved something on the list of explaining why I want to do something that's on the list. Or just to share something.

It has been six weeks now since BamBam left us. I am not very good at coping with loss, still feel tears well up in my eyes. He is such a sweet gentle loving soul. It was very difficult to know when to let him go while he was suffering. Finally made an appointment with the vet as he was definitely not doing very well. This little brave man held up till the very last moment, and then passed away in the car while being cuddled by someone who loves him lots.
The mind said it is better for him not to suffer any more but still miss him terribly. The house appears so much quieter because he is not around, not that he is a noisy dog, contrary. Often forget that he is no longer here, picking up four lots of treats instead of three and still waiting for him to appear. While walking the dogs, it is like I left him behind. And wonder if dog walkers, who had met us before, notice that he is no longer here. Could not really stop to say he is gone without tearing. Often cutting the dog treats, miss his little head popping between my legs giving me a peek-a-boo. Miss the sight of him always sitting out on the lawn. He is the only dog that keeps very still balancing a gravy bone on his snout and on release flicks it in the air and catches it in his mouth. But looking at the recent photos and videos of him suffering, it is definitely better that he had left when he did.
I had condolences from people. But interestingly, my niece who out of the blue just stumbled upon the image below felt that BamBam wants her to assure me that he is fine now. The image of the maltese sure do look like BamBam. I am glad that he is all good and happy now in Doggie Heaven.
BamBam always love been outside in the garden.
And now, ten minutes after this photo, he is now forever resting in the garden, no longer suffering, and always near us.

A lot of people will complaint when their computer getting slower. They thought that the performance has decreased because their computer getting older. So, they feel they need a newer, faster model. That is actually not necessary. Follow this simple guide and your computer should run just as fast as the day you brought it home –
1)Clean Out Your Temporary Internet Files and Cookies
To clean out your temporary internet files and cookies go to:
- Start / Control Panel
- Click on the 'Internet Options' icon
- click the 'Delete Cookies' button and then click 'ok'
- Now click on the 'Delete Files' button. Put a check mark in the 'delete all offline content' box and click 'ok'
- You can also clear your history if you want.
2)Defrag Your Hard Drive
When you defrag your hard drive all your file segments are put back together otherwise known as 'made contiguous'. This makes accessing the file alot faster, thus improving performance.
To Defrag your Hard Drive go to:
Start / All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / Disk Defragmenter
Now click on the 'Defragment' button and let the program do it's work. Often times the defrag process can take several hours so it is a good idea to do this at a time when you don't need your computer.
Or you can also use software like Diskeeper to defrag your hard disk.
So far, Diskeeper doing a great job for me. You guys should try.Recommended.
3)Run Anti-Spyware Programs
Your computer might be slow because of spyware or adware, especially for those who surf the internet everyday. So, by running a good Anti-spyware program to remove these is a always a good idea to increase your system performance. My personal anti-spyware favorites are AVG anti-spyware, Spysweeper & Zone Alarm Pro.
OR, you can scan your computer online >> HERE.
4)Optimize/Fix Windows Registry
Likewise, the Windows registry can become cluttered with a mess of broken or fragmented entries that can also slow Windows down. Bogus entries that point to non-existent or invalid files and resources represent a common example of useless, broken registry entries.
Good software for fixing/optimizing registry is like RegistryFix, WinASO registry optimizer and many more. Use Google search engine to find what is the most suitable software for you. Google is always the smarter choice.
With the information I have provided here, you should now have pretty good ideas on how to improve your pc performance.Additionally, routine maintenance and drive defragmentation and assurance of registry consistency and defragmentation will help ensure optimal performance. Good luck !

S...I like the idea of skimming down on tech stuff. Sadly the other night I walked down stairs to ask my bro in law if he wanted to watch a movie with Dave he says maybe have Dave text me when he is ready. Dude there are 12, yes I have counted a million times while carrying the laundry basket up and down, stairs and maybe 20 steps to your room from there but ok a text it is. We have the most basic phones, and I love it. We were a one cell phone family until said bro in law fired an employee and it cost him too much to cancel the phone so he gave it to me. Seriously we rarely ever have both of them with us. We do have the land line but that is because I am home all the time, and you can't get our internet without the phone, but our phone has all the free long distance, call waiting, caller id, voice mail ect. cheaper then the cell monthly fee. The other thing I like is that my kids are learning they don't need a cell phone to survive, even when their cousins try to convince them otherwise. (really does my 8 year old niece need a phone? yet she has one and is always on it! what is that???) Anyhow there is my whole thought. Oh wait I have more so I guess it wasn't the whole thought you should check out thriftbooks.com for cheap books then you can have them and not spend the book store price. Ok now I am done. :)The Murieshttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811450885417186538.post-62597833060344647592011-06-29T15:15:10.757-04:002011-06-29T15:15:10.757-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.The Murieshttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811450885417186538.post-54677000665096612692011-06-28T17:25:32.162-04:002011-06-28T17:25:32.162-04:00I'm not adverse to technology to the extent th...I'm not adverse to technology to the extent that it brings people together but when it drives us apart that's when I have issues. So I won't give up Facebook or my blog as long as it keeps me connected. I just need to be smarter about how I use it and make sure I don't lose the real connections.

So just today I was thinking we totally need to be neighbors. Somehow or someway, I totally think it could happen. It really wasn't very fair to throw us together only to have us torn apart....Melissahttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811450885417186538.post-69084355314111518792011-06-28T17:11:54.088-04:002011-06-28T17:11:54.088-04:00So several months ago, Bart and I went out on a da...So several months ago, Bart and I went out on a date (oh man it's been several months!) and out to dinner. While waiting for our table, we observed 21 out of the 24 people that were also waiting for their tables were on smartphones or ipods. Like, they all came with family or friends, but instead of talking to each other they were all on facebook or playing games or whatever. Bart and I were like "that's so sad!" Well in February when I washed my phone in the washing machine, we opted to upgrade to iphones and now we TOTALLY do the same thing listed above way more than we probably realize. Sitting in the family room after dinner just plugged in...and it's driving me crazy (and I'm just as guilty of it as bart) I totally support what you're trying to say here, just so long as you don't bag fb or your blog bc I like it not feeling like you're a million worlds away :)Josiehttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811450885417186538.post-47320907584167145082011-06-28T16:48:58.628-04:002011-06-28T16:48:58.628-04:00Oh you are so smart!

Even if they come out with new technology that makes it obsolete, that doesn't mean you have to stop using it. Most technology is starting to become more standardized. Most things use USB now, and USB will be around a long time. (Even if better things come out, you'll still be able to buy adapters that will allow you to use USB)

You could also cancel your cell phone service and just use your phone as an e-reader.

Whatever you do, I definitely support interacting with real people. When this life is over we'll have to leave all our gadgets behind but we get to take our relationships with us.Jeffhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com

MISSOULA – The Maureen and Mike Mansfield Library at the University of Montana recently received a $49,343 National Leadership Grant from the federal Institute of Museum and Library Services.
The Electronic Irish Research Experience, or EIRE, will serve as a national model for conveying the diaspora experience through an effective combination of primary source content and scholarly context.
During the project, partners, advisory board members and consultants will design a community- and learning-focused platform to convey the Irish-American experience. EIRE will establish and support collaborations between international libraries, archives, universities and academic programs to identify and gather materials that build community and preserve cultural heritage.
"The Mansfield Library has continued supporting the UM learning and research mission and engaging in knowledge creation through collaborative projects such as this one with other campus units and external cultural institutions," said Library Dean Shali Zhang. "This federal award gives us an excellent opportunity to plan and design an electronic platform that conveys the Irish-American experience. This model will indeed help enhance educational experiences for the UM community and beyond."
National Leadership Grants for Libraries support projects that address challenges faced by the library and archive fields and that have the potential to advance practice in those fields.
"Libraries are changing to meet the evolving learning, social and informational landscapes of their communities," said Susan Hildreth, director of the Institute of Museum and Library Services. "These grants reflect truly creative thinking by library and archive professionals – along with their university, professional association and local government partners – that will ensure the continued role of libraries as community anchors for generations to come."
"We're very pleased to have received this grant," said UM Associate Professor and Project Director Julie Biando Edwards. "It was exciting to conceptualize the project in the grant-writing stages and we're looking forward to exploring what we can develop. EIRE is truly a collaborative project that we hope will build community and preserve cultural heritage."
Partners in the project include Traolach O'Riordain of UM's Irish Studies Program, Ellen Crain of the Butte-Silver Bow Public Archives and Colette McKenna of the Boole Library at University College Cork, Ireland.
"From the point of view of Irish Studies, the EIRE project will contribute greatly to our mission of informing the community of the very powerful influence the Irish of Montana exerted in their adopted state and on the course of history in Ireland," O'Riordain said. "The role of the Irish of America in the creation of modern Ireland is an area that is attracting a lot more attention in recent years, so the EIRE project is both very timely and relevant."

Amanda Bynes's mother, Lynn, plans to drop a key aspect of the legal conservatorship a judge recently granted her over her troubled daughter, PEOPLE has confirmed.
A Ventura County, California, judge should soon sign off on transferring control of the 28-year-old actress's "person" and material needs from Lynn Bynes to a private professional conservator. That new conservator will immediately assume responsibility for Bynes's medical and day-to-day needs.

The director of gay coming-of-age drama Call Me by Your Name has confirmed that a previously hinted at sequel is in the works.
Standing on the red carpet of the Academy Awards on Sunday, director Luca Guadagnino told USA Today that work had begun on a sequel.
"I'm already conceiving the story with [author] André Aciman. It's gonna happen five or six years afterwards, so almost in the 1990s," Guadagnino said. "It's gonna be a new movie, a different tone. You're gonna see a lot of the East Coast of America… They're gonna go around the world."
When asked about a release date for the sequel, Guadagnino said: "We have to get there with the script, but we will."
The original movie was nominated for four Academy Awards and won for Best Adapted Screenplay. Starring Armie Hammer and Timothée Chalamet, it follows the burgeoning romance between a teenager (Chalamet) and the scholar (Hammer) who comes to stay at his parent's villa in Italy.
In a January interview with Hollywood Reporter, Guadagnino said the sequel will likely involve a plotline about HIV, saying it will be a "very relevant part of the story."

I have big goals for the program and believe I am well prepared for this opportunity," said Konert. "The ENC athletic department is heading in the right direction, so I feel blessed to be a part of the journey."

The cost of prescription medicines used by millions of people every day is about to plummet.
The next 14 months will bring generic versions of seven of the world's 20 best-selling drugs, including the top two: cholesterol fighter Lipitor and blood thinner Plavix.
The magnitude of this wave of expiring drugs patents is unprecedented.
Between now and 2016, blockbusters with about $255 billion in global annual sales will go off patent, notes EvaluatePharma, a London research firm.
Generic competition will decimate sales of the brand-name drugs and slash the cost to patients and companies that provide health benefits.
Top drugs getting generic competition by September 2012 are taken by millions every day: Lipitor alone is taken by about 4.3 million Americans, and Plavix by 1.4 million.
Generic versions of big-selling drugs for blood pressure, asthma, diabetes, depression, high triglycerides, HIV and bipolar disorder also are coming on the market by then.
The flood of generics will continue for the next decade or so, as about 120 brand-name drugs lose market exclusivity, according to prescription benefits manager Medco Health Solutions.

T/N: Sorry for the wait! This is the plan. I am uploading this with the Akane episode today. I also have Masaomi's, the twins' and Kadota's (2, 4 and 5) on the agenda. If anyone provides the remaining scans, I will translate.
The other matter is with the Izaya to, Yuuyake wo novel, which seems to have been dropped by the previous translator. I've been playing around with the idea of translating it, but SH4 will definitely take priority. I also have a major exam this year, so please be understanding! Any other translators are welcome to step in.
(P.S. Even after taking it down I've been getting emails requesting access to Volume 13 every day. help)

—Extracted from Vampire Ninja Carmilla Saizō IV ~ BLOOD REVOLUTION pamphlet
Somewhere in the city. Press Conference.
It was an event hall with an ambience of luxury, usually for weddings and anniversary celebrations.
"Alright, please look this way!"
"Here too please."
The subject to these camera flashes was a number of film actors lined up for a press conference.
It was an event premiering the latest Vampire Ninja Carmilla Saizō film.
While assumed to be a short-lived production at first, Carmilla Saizō had been able to acquire sequel after sequel due to the breakthrough of the leading actor Hanejima Yūhei amongst other factors, and its financial success had risen accordingly.
Given this background, Hanejima Yūhei's acceptance of his role in this supposedly minor series even after he had gone big was another point of interest. Although his managing company Jack O'Lantern attempted to stop him, the director of the firm Max Sandshield welcomed the idea, and so instead the company wound up making its topselling talent star in one low-paying movie after another.
In any case, these elements combined such that Carmilla Saizō produced several movies featuring Hanejima Yūhei, and continued its progress to gain a place amongst the representative works of the generation.
With the closure of the initial photo-taking session, they moved onto the question-and-answer segment.
"It was mentioned that most of the filming took place in India. How was it?"
"It was a good place."
"What are the highlights of this latest movie?"
"The fully ad-libbed fight scene."
"It seems Hijiribe-san was responsible for the movie's SFX makeup; how were your interactions?"
"It's a private matter, but personally I would like to think we get along well."
The lead actor Hanejima Yūhei was barraged with questions that varied in relevance to the movie itself.
Yūhei was answering these questions evenly when a reporter from LAST WEEK Weekly, a magazine known for third-rate gossip, pitched a completely random question.
"It seems that you've done some investments again and expanded your assets—do you have a secret to making money?"
"I think that in your case you should stop gambling and clear your debts, Kozaki-san."
"Ah… um, thanks."
The reporter he addressed by name reddened and sat down awkwardly, while another journalist asked, jokingly,
"Could it be you remember the faces of reporters and such?"
"If it's someone who's interviewed me before."
Yūhei nodded promptly. Several of the reporters shuddered as they realised it was most likely true. Not only that; it was bizarre how he knew of the debt issues of a mere reporter, and the mentality he had to have to announce such things so publicly without hesitation was scary.
Hanejima Yūhei was abnormal.
That was the true opinion of these reporters.
But they were also aware that it was his unorthodox air that drew the interest of the public.
Even the late-night rendezvous that was the closest thing to a scandal in his history had been with an idol somewhat uncanny herself, Hijiribe Ruri; despite the disappointment of the fans of both parties, there were supporters who felt that the two were too compatible for there to be any real complaints.
"Hijiribe Ruri-san was involved this time not only as for SFX makeup but also as a guest star… What are your thoughts on acting in the same film as a couple?"
In response to that question, after a brief pause, Yūhei replied as though choosing his words carefully,
"I did my best to separate my personal feelings from my work."
With an expression that, to any outsider, showed no trace of any personal feelings that could have existed in the first place.
Meanwhile. Conference Room, Jack O'Lantern Japan.
"…It's hard to tell from his expression, but he was embarrassed back there, wasn't he?"
A woman said this as she watched the variety show on the screen.
"Is it fine for you not to attend? Everyone knows Hijiribe Ruri's one of the major contributors that got Carmilla Saizō where it is today."
The other woman she spoke to—Hijiribe Ruri—looked away awkwardly, answering,
"Sorry, I'm bad at things like press conferences… Besides, I didn't do anything impressive."
"That's not true. Your SFX makeup has been praised since the work first came out, right?"
"The credit goes to Zakuroya-sensei."
Ruri attributed it to her SFX makeup instructor, but she was not being modest; she honestly felt that her teacher had had played a major part in Carmilla Saizō's production.
At the same time, Ruri felt once more that fate was a strange thing.
That a film she had done SFX makeup for she would find herself acting in now.
And presently she, who had become an idol, was being interviewed by a journalist, while—
Unexpectedly, she had wound up watching the press conference of Hanejima Yūhei, who was now her lover.
She was currently being interviewed by a freelance writer, Kinomiya Kazane, under the theme 'Celebrities in Ikebukuro'.
She did not normally accept interviews from freelance writers, but a writer Ruri had some history with, Tsukumoya Shinichi, had introduced the woman, and so both the company and Ruri had lowered their guard.
"Kinomiya-san, are you Tsukumoya-san's apprentice?"
Ruri asked conversationally. Kinomiya Kazane replied, blandly,
"No no, I don't think I could call myself his apprentice per se. I've never even seen his face, it's just that I picked up from him things like how to do internet columns, or article-writing skills…"
The young writer had at some point in the interview slipped into a tone more suited for friends.
Ruri herself was not strict about such formalities and in fact had a good impression of the woman, but that did not mean she opened up completely.
For it was only Hanejima Yūhei alongside a small handful of others that could truly open her heart.
But, whether aware of her thoughts or not, the writer Kazane closed her notebook and switched off the voice recorder, saying,
"Um, this isn't part of the interview, but… there's something I want to ask out of personal interest."
"? Yes?"
Ruri tilted her head, and Kazane asked with a serious expression,
"…Ruri-san… Do you have any really huge secret?"
"Um, this might sound weird, but… Anything most people wouldn't believe… Like, if you've been abducted by aliens before or something…"
"Why… do you ask?"
There, the writer herself wavered, and said, slowly,
"Since I was young I met a lot of strange people… I mean, people departed from social norms… And so knowing that there's a slightly different world beyond what I can see, I joined this job so as to see that world clearly… You give off that same air, Ruri-san. As the unusual people I've met up till now."
Strangely, Ruri understood that Kazane was telling the truth.
Nevertheless, it would be ludicrous to disclose any of her own secrets; to expose the most delicate parts of her sinful heart.
Ruri, awkward, tried to reject her in a roundabout way by redirecting the conversation.
"…Then, Kinomiya-san… it won't be a fair trade unless you tell me a huge secret of your own, right?"
She joked, smiling lightly.
But Kazane, after some deliberation, replied just as jokingly,
"A secret, a secret… Mmm… Our fathers are different, but I have an older brother who works as an underground doctor… and lives with the Headless Rider… does that count?"
Ruri froze unthinkingly at those words.
Seeing this reaction, Kazane waved her hands.
"Ahaha! Y, you wouldn't believe something like that, right? I'm sorry! Please forget that!"
But the words that Ruri uttered right after— were beyond Kazane's expectations.
"….You're Kishitani-sensei's… sister?"
"Huh?! Um… You know my brother?"
There Ruri went quiet for a moment, and then she smiled; not an evasive smile like earlier, but one from her heart, as she murmured,
"Maybe… there really is such thing as fate."
Kazane tilted her head. Ruri looked up slowly, and said,
"You are right that I have a secret. I can't talk about it, but… instead, why don't I talk about the important person who shares my secret?"
And so Ruri began to tell.
A tiny episode of the countless, countless times she, a monster, had been saved by a human.
Hijiribe Ruri possessed power unlike any human.
And in the past, using that power, she had committed terrible crimes.
While it was revenge for a family member, those crimes were against the laws of this country, and likely unforgiveable by societal standards.
That was why she had decided to accept the fate coming for her.
Even the fate that befell her days after she became the fake lover of Hanejima Yūhei—when she was embroiled in a certain conspiracy and trapped under the rubble of a collapsed building.
She could feel the fire surrounding the debris burn ever-higher.
For all she was superhuman, she would probably die if those flames consumed her.
—Maybe this is my punishment.
If she actually used her monstrous strength she could probably break free of the debris, but a thought had come to her.
It was that perhaps, if she disappeared here, she would no longer be a burden to others.
As she thought this, the face of a man appeared in her mind.
The face of the man who had told a monster like her that he did not want her to die.
—I'm sorry, Kasuka-san.
—If I die here, my crimes won't inconvenience you anymore…
As her thoughts reached that point, something odd occurred in her surroundings.
The pressure of the rubble weighing down on her had suddenly eased.
When she opened her eyes, there was the face of a man currently levering the slab above her up with a steel pipe.
"Kasuka-san…? Why…?"
"…It's not a question; I don't need a reason to help you."
Something must have happened on his way here; his body was already littered with injuries.
"Please stop! Over someone like me… You should know what I've done… You can't get hurt over someone like me!"
Ruri cried out, close to tears, and the injured Yūhei replied,
"I think there are people who would deny your right to happiness. That is true."
With his usual lack of expression, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and continued.
"But even if your crimes are unforgiveable, I do not deny your right to be happy. I hope that you will never forget that, at the very least, you have one person who thinks this way."
With this even voice, Kasuka gave his reply.
"On the contrary, without you, I will not be happy."
"All that I have are lackings. I don't have the strength of my brother, or the Director's ability to get along in the world. I have always been empty."
Even as Yūhei tried to remove the rubble with all of his strength, he continued to speak to Ruri, who had been giving up on her life just earlier.
"You… are the important person who accepted me in spite of my lackings as a person… so if you will not fight your fate, then I will fight in your place."
Yūhei heaved the pipe as he said this.
But following that—part of a yet-intact wall near to them began to collapse, falling towards him.
It was a millisecond before it would crush them both—
When Ruri escaped through the gaps in the rubble, and easily deflected it despite it being multiple times her weight.
"All that I have are lackings, too."
Even as Ruri faltered as to whether living on was the right thing to do—she had no doubt when it came to walking alongside this man.
"I will compensate where you are lacking, Kasuka-san."
So as to escape the surrounding fire, Ruri lifted Yūhei in a princess carry, and began to leap.
Under the bask of moonlight, she simply smiled, quietly, towards him.
"So please… let me dream on a little longer."
After listening to her story, Kazane was silent for a while—before slowly, she tilted her head and asked,
"…That's a scene from Carmilla Saizō IV, isn't it?"
"…You realised?"
"I watched the premiere only just now! Ugh, the words are slightly different, but it's straight from the last scene between you and Yūhei-san isn't it! To think before I realised I was listening so seriously, too! Hey!"
Kazane said, laughing, to which Ruri smiled gently—
And slid the movie pamphlet on the table over, pointing to one section.
'Script Contributor: Hanejima Yūhei'
"Although he said just now that he tried to avoid involving his personal feelings…"
Ruri looked up at Yūhei's face on the screen, where the press conference was still ongoing, and said, half to herself,
"He truly is bad when it comes to these kinds of things…"
"Um… Do you mean to say, he used a real life conversation as a model for the script?"
Kazane's voice was uncertain—but in truth she was working hard to conceal a curious anticipation wishing it to be so.
To Kazane, the 'monster' replied, with a very human smile:
As if the smile on her face were Yūhei's share as well, inasmuch as he never smiled at others,
"That's up to you to interpret, Kazane-san."
(*The reporter Yūhei addresses by name, Kozaki, is from Otsuberu to Warau Suiyōbi. 'Ko' is written as 'fox'.)

On Public Television Black host Travis Smiley interviewed Black musician D'Angelo. In the course of the interview Smiley mention that he knew Deangelo came from a Pentecostal background by listening to his music. (Both Smiley and D'Angelo were Pentecostal youth; D'Angelo's father a minister.) D'Angelo said he had used the Pentecostal method of emotional arousal in his music.
In 1963, when I was apprehended, the Holy Spirit revival was still in its early stages and in search of a Holy Spirit worship service a group of newly converted, "Spirit-filled" Christians attended a Pentecostal church. We were enchanted with musical efforts to induce the presence of the Holy Spirit; with seekers (often women) lying flat on the floor slain by the Spirit; with tongues and sometimes interpretation; with miraculous healings; and with revelations that sometimes rang true and sometimes did not. It was at once both exciting and blessed.
As the movement spread to mainline churches it became more restrained in its physical manifestations and more pronounced in a musical genre. New songs were written and became popular while preaching began to dwell on promises of blessing. As the requirement of obligation was dropped the Great God of All Creation and His Son, King Jesus, became servants to His subjects who sought His blessing and sold the Christian religion to others as a religion of love and blessing. This religion of blessing without obligation became extremely popular and grew quickly.
I have not listened to D'Angelo's music but his latest hit is entitled "Black Messiah". It received rave reviews. D'Angelo told Smiley that he and his musical group often pray before going on stage.
I have great respect for Rev. Chuck Baldwin. He is a brilliant preacher, politician, and patriot who has spent years attempting to awaken the American Christian Church to its duty to demand righteousness in our nation. His well-written articles have been reprinted far and wide and he has a sizeable following both for his written material and his church in Kalispell, Montana,
However, Baldwin and I are far apart in our understanding of proper Christian theology. Baldwin is an Arminian, antinomian, dispensationalist; which means he believes in (at least the partial) autonomy of man as opposed to the sovereignty of God, he believes that Biblical Law has been replaced by Natural Law, and in an heretical, lawless doctrine of Jewish separation in a segmented history.
In the United States the relationship of Christianity to the Bible is similar to the Government's relation to the Constitution. Christian Churches pay very little attention to the Word of God and the Government pays very little attention to the Constitution.
It is difficult in our time to determine what is expected of a Christian. How is he to worship? How is he to behave? Is he to depend on a sovereign God or is he expected to act as he sees fit? What church should he attend? Is there a true church and an heretical church? What is the role of government? What is the relationship between rights and duties – how does it relate to Christianity?
The Christian Church has been associated with Love. God has been defined as Love. And, yet, there are few Americans who understand the Biblical definition of love. The Church needs to define it. What is Love?
Are Christians against abortion because the Bible says, "Thou shalt not kill"? Is
"Thou shalt not Kill" a legal command? If so, is objection to abortion "legalistic"? Is murder O.K. if one believes in Natural Law? Animals do kill each other.
These are some of the questions that plague Christians and often the answers are either missing or senseless. The Natural law Pastor Baldwin promotes Is vague and non-specific. It leaves the door wide open to human manipulation with the frightening evil it brings. From the Fall human nature has been evil and when law is derived from the human intellect serious problems quickly occur.
Evangelical and Charismatic churches are antinomian, they believe God's Law was given for the Jews and is no longer valid. Most of these churches are also dispensational they believe God's relationship with His people changes in different time segments. Most converted Christians in America are without a palpable guide for behavior. Some rely on the Ten Commandments but a pit of uncertainty results in a variety of sinful assertions and actions.
In his article entitled "The Collapse of Christianity in America" Pastor Baldwin writes concerning the Church, "First, it became legalistic and Pharisaical. Then, it became materialistic and self-centered. And in the process, it left millions of people in this country totally repulsed, not only with the Church, but with Christianity itself." He believes millions of people have been injured by "legalism" and no longer want anything to do with the Christian Church.
It is an interesting fact that Islam is the world's second fastest growing religion after Christianity. Islam comes with Sharia law, a system that is in some ways similar to Biblical Law. It has been subjected to enough denigration and propaganda to scare people but even with this severe legalism it continues to grow. It is also a fact that atheism is actually the fastest growing religion. Read here. People like to be entertained but they also want to know how their Creator wants them to behave. It isn't legalism that prevents the rise of Christianity!
When D'Angelo and his group pray who do they pray to? Do they pray to the God of the Bible Who provided His Law as a guide to the behavior of His chosen people? Do they pray to a God who claims the ONLY channel to the Father is through the Son or do they pray to a god of their own design, a Dispensational god who has been constructed by the minds of men. Maybe they have constructed their own god who accepts abortion and homosexuality. Does that god hear their prayer?
It is hard to know which god is being worshiped in America. Individual Christians decide they believe some of the Bible but not all. Different religions emphasize certain passages and ignore others. Some Christians paste on bumper stickers that say "God said it and I believe it"; but do they really believe it when they discarded portions of God's Word as if His morality changes with the times? Have they forgotten that He is God and He does not change?
Using God's Law as the standard of behavior is not legalism. The Law does not provide salvation. We are saved by Grace and forgiven by the Blood of Christ. The Law provides a righteous standard for life and conduct, a standard that is pleasing to God and beneficial to his people. The authenticity of God's Law has never changed. His Law is part of His character and those who discard it discard obedience which is the closest thing to God's heart.
Pastor Baldwin is evangelical and believes along with famous Evangelist Billy Graham that Christians are responsible for choosing God. He believes this in spite of the fact that in the Bible God always does the choosing. Please understand, blessed reader, if we are not chosen and instead we decided of our own volition to "come to Christ" God is no longer sovereign but must wait for our decision before we can be converted. That is blasphemy!
In addition to all this Dispensationalists are convinced that this is a Jewish era and that the Jews are still God's chosen people. They ignore the Diaspora and the divorce that took place when the Jewish Savior was rejected and murdered by the very people He had come to save. Without an iota of justification they bring Israel and the Jews back as the apple of God's eye. They ignore the plain fact that the Twelve Disciples replaced the Twelve Tribes and Christians henceforth became God's chosen people. By doing this they gut the Christian religion with a deadly heresy and put the United States of America under God's judgement.
This is where we are as Christians in America. This is why ministers fail to confront evil in the Church and in the government. This is why Christians are divided and weak. We have forsaken the true religion of Christianity and taken up false substitutes. We have allowed impostors to dictate our doctrine and we have distorted the character of the One True God. It is this sin that is the source of the confusion that has overtaking us.
It is not the duty of Christians to make the Gospel attractive. Our duty is to obey God's Commandments and preach a Gospel that encompasses the whole Bible. The Gospel is not esoteric; it is easy to understand. Pleasing God is not a mystery. Sinful men distort the plain desires of God's heart they complicate the duties of Christians and preach sinful sermons that conflict with His Will and mislead His flock.
Evangelism and conversion is the beginning of Christianity; not the end. When the Law and obedience is ignored converted Christians are unable to please God. The entire Bible is about obedience and there is no obedience without the Law. The Bible is not about promises and gifts it is about obedience and the blessed results it produces. The Law is of utmost importance because without it the blessings of the Gospel elude God's people. Obedience both blesses the people and pleases God.
The Christian Church, its ministers, and its congregation is responsible for the fall of our nation It is time for self-examination and repentance – time to seek His blessing through obedience
