The Ethics Of War: Shared Problems In Different Traditions
Sept. 11 and the next invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq have left many of us baffled and anxious. This interdisciplinary examine of the ethics of struggle presents a superb orientation not just to offer, but additionally to destiny conflicts. It seems to be either again at ancient traditions of moral suggestion and ahead to modern and rising matters.
Kierkegaard: Thinking Christianly in an Existential Mode
Søren Kierkegaard (1813-1855) used to be at the start a Christian philosopher who's possibly top recognized for his devastating assault upon Christendom or the status quo of his time. no longer on the grounds that Luther has there been a Protestant philosopher who has so uncompromisingly sought to outline and current Christianity in its utmost integrity.
Das Buch der Menschlichkeit. Eine neue Ethik für unsere Zeit
Wer wäre berufener als der Dalai Lama, "eine der faszinierendsten Gestalten des 20. Jahrhunderts", uns zu Beginn des neuen Jahrtausends Perspektiven für ein erfülltes Leben aufzuzeigen? Denn trotz des Wohlstands sind viele Menschen gerade in der westlichen Welt mit ihrem Leben unzufrieden, suchen eine neue innere Ruhe, die mit Konsum und Luxus nicht zu erlangen ist.
Christian Horror: On the Compatibility of a Biblical Worldview and the Horror Genre
To such a lot, the time period "Christian horror" most likely appears like an oxymoron. however, there are first-class arguments to be made that "horror" is an eminently biblical style and that Christian artists will be on the leading edge of reclaiming it. during this paintings, novelist Mike Duran explores the Judeo-Christian roots of up to date horror, the non secular subject matters that body a lot of the horror artwork, and the way evangelical tradition has come to distance itself from one of these almost certainly wealthy and strong medium.

However dubious the cultural politics of such a vision, it is an exemplary instance of the wider patterns of Fernweh and Heimweh coursing through German literary culture in the early nineteenth century. In the second of those poems, "Patmos," the poet is initially lost in contemplations about crossing the abyss of Alpine passes, to communicate with those who dwell on opposite peaks. But the poet is interrupted when, a genius Carried me off from my house, More quickly than expected, Further than I ever imagined Going.
Denis. Lefebvre is careful to note that the relationship between these categories of space cannot always be easily accounted for in causal terms, so that it is impossible to say that a mental space simply produces a physical space. 26 But it is clear that for a complete understanding of the dynamics of space, an awareness of the ways in which these layers of space fold into and atop of one another is crucial. As I have already hinted, for the purposes of theology it is the third category, representational space, which will prove most important.
Zantop notes that various popular literatures of this period portrayed Germans as ideal colonizers, compassionate and civilized in comparison with the more brutal practices of the French, Spanish, Portuguese, and English. 54 These fantasies played themselves out in the realm of popular literatures such as children's stories and dramas, as well as in philosophical discourses such as those of Kant and Hegel and even brief ly, as we shall see, Schleiermacher. For example, Zantop notes that a popular retelling of the Robinson Crusoe tale, Robinson the Younger, was first published in 1779 by Joachim Campe.

I'm just going to say it.
If you don't like chocolate & peanut butter mixed together, you're insane.
And to those of you with nut allergies, sorry you'll never know one of life's greatest pleasures.
You probably shouldn't read any further. The risk of ignoring potential anaphylactic shock to make these is too great.
My husband volunteered to cook with me the other night (whoa, hold the phones, yes it's true) and we made these wonderful chocolate peanut butter cups.
The best part was licking melted chocolate off spoons, bowls, etc.
And etc. is not code for each other, ya pervs.
One is basically the size of 4 Reese's PB Cups.

The Annual Monmouth County Replublican Lincoln Day Reception was held last night at Aberdeen's Garden Manor.
Despite predictions of a disaster, Serena DiMaso and Tom Apostle pulled off an outstanding event and are to be commended for it. Although there may have been better attended Lincoln Days in the past, this was far from a washout, and our friends from Howell behaved themselves.
A nice time was had by all.
In spite of reports to the contrary, this correspondent was there. Many GOP dignitaries were in attendance, rubbing elbows with rank & file party members. Congressman Chris Smith was there, with a volunteer circulating his nominating petition for this year's election. Various freeholder candidates were in attendance and working the room. It has been said that they weren't, but they were. Former County Chairman Fred Kniesler and family were with the Upper Freehold contingent, and in addition to Monmouth's Trenton delegation (OK, not all of them.), some legislators from other parts of the state also supported the event. State Senator Tom Kean (R-Union), who hopes to swap the "State" prefix to his title for "U. S." this year, was there, as was Assemblyman Bill Baroni (R-Mercer), an up-and-comer in state politics who has been mentioned as a possible 2009 gubernatorial candidate. Also former Assemblyman Paul DiGaetano (R-Essex), who was a gubernatorial candidate in the 2005 primary. It is said that Sylvester Fernandes, the 2004 standardbearer in the 6th District race against Democrat Rep. Frank Pallone, was there. State Chair Tom Wilson got up and said a few words, as did County Chairman Fred Niemann.
A nice reception last night, now on to Saturday's Title 19 convention!

Did Fred really say that if he had $4 million dollars he would take over the state of New Jersey?
I was there and heard him say it, yet I still find it hard to believe that he said that.

Honest Abe, So refreshing Fred and Dan (Ronald Reagan) can learn from you. HONESTY. It sounds like it was a great event. Obviously Dan Gallic does not know who you are or thinks you are someone else who did not attend. There were 530 paid based upon the door count by the restaurant. THAT IS THE TRUTH. The book had 110 pages, last years had 162. The event and the book were off about 35%(not "slightly" as was alleged by our truthed-challenged Chairman in today's Asbury Park Press). We are still suffering from "post-indictment stress disorder". Great job Tom, Serena and the Committee.

question: why is an ambition for one political organization (the Monmouth GOP), which clearly has hostile views about dissenting opinions by citizens at its upper levels (fred and dan), to "take over the state" a good thing for the greatest majority of residents of this state.
in my experience, the upper leadership of the county GOP cannot even effectively represent the broad range of views in its own county party without using punitive measures to roll over the opinions and views of others. what in the world makes fred or anyone else believe that there would be a statewide need for such "representation," given the fact he has not one but two challengers contending for his seat with some support?
oh yeah, a whole state would give fred a greater ability to strongarm people, as well as bully and intimidate them.
new jersey and fred: perfect together? nah.

I couldn't sleep last night,
So I kept switching back and forth between all of my social media apps.
What's the point of social media?
To stay "in tune" with the news? Life? The world? Other people? Sure social media can be a good thing when you're using it for the right reasons.
A lot of people only have social media to show off their life, because what else is there better to do?
I like seeing other people's cute pictures, it's fun! But when I start comparing my life to theirs and get upset, jealous, annoyed or angry that's when I know it's become a problem.
I can delete, unfriend, unfollow and block as many people as I'd like but there's always going to be someone else's life who "looks" better than mine.
There's always going to be someone to compare myself and my life to. It's apart of life.
And as much as that's not okay, we have to deal with it.
Sure we all have those thoughts sometimes, that's the key word: sometimes. We shouldn't have them everyday or even often at all. It's harmful.
Harmful to you. Harmful to your happiness, self esteem, life and overall joy.
So you do you. Do what it takes to stop those self destructive thoughts from creeping into your mind. Do what it takes for you to be happy. Do what it takes so you're satisfied with your life.
Some nights are harder than others but this is possible. Don't be bitter, don't be jealous, don't be upset but most importantly don't let someone else rob you of your happiness because of a picture or tweet or status that makes you feel behind in life, or lost or not enough.
You are enough.
You will have a happy life, you just have to work for it. I guarantee not everyone who posts a smiling picture has nothing wrong in there life and is completely happy. We all have trials. None of us are perfect or even come close to having a perfect life.
So step away from that computer. Shut off your phone. Do whatever you need to do to stop comparing your life and happiness to others.
So stop those thoughts and go out and make your happy life.

Nice to see turkeys. I posted a picture awhile ago entitled 'Turkeys in the front'. With farms getting broken up and housing going up along all the roadfronts it may be all the more important to help these critters along when and where we can. In the 18 years we've owned our place all but 2 of our neighborhood farms have been sold off and broken up.
How about letting us know what you have done that has worked with the wildlife on your place?
Take care- Mike
As for feed plot size, there are differing opinions. In 'Extension Wildlife Scientist' you can read:
"In general it is better to have a larger number of well distributed small plots than a small number of larger ones."
It is suggested that the ideal size for a single plot is 1-3 acres. The reason I posted the question about feed plots was to see what experiences others have had with theirs, and likewise, to generate some exchange about what has worked for them, and what doesn't work. Some folks plant flowers, I plant feed plots: and with some success.
No turkeys with deere in our hay fields, cept two in the neighborhood. One is a retired airline pilot, and the other owns the local propane distribution outfit.
We don't have the green tractor ourselves, we own 2 orphans. I can't even print the name here on the site cause Kim will ban me.
If you ever get down to these parts we'll chase a bird or two out into the field to make you feel at home, and we'll pull start our tractor and let you run out to see the nests we'll fashion for you. There is a reason why folks are fond of southern hospitality.

Bigger crowd expected on second day of International Festival of Cultures
14 Sep 2017
- By Junhan B. Todiño - firstname.lastname@example.com - Variety News Staff
ORGANIZERS are expecting a bigger crowd on the second day of the International Festival of Cultures this Saturday at the Garapan Fishing Base.
Despite the rain and strong winds last Saturday, the turnout was still good, Marianas Visitors Authority Managing Director Chris Concepcion said.
"I'm sure there would've been a larger crowd though had the weather cooperated," he added.
The festival is held every Saturday of the month to celebrate the CNMI's cultural diversity with special emphasis on indigenous Micronesian cultures.
Concepcion said holding the festival at Garapan Fishing Base helped tremendously last Saturday because there was no flooding on the festival grounds despite the bad weather.
"We had live performances from several cultural groups and the audience was very receptive," he said.
Chamorro welcoming chant stood out during the opening night, he added. "And the food served at the booths of the Federated States of Micronesia, Japan, China, Hawaii/Tahiti/Cook Islands, Bangladesh, the Philippines and Korea were phenomenal."
Arts and crafts are displayed at the CNMI, Palau, Samoa/Tonga/Fiji and Marshall Islands booths. Concepcion described the items on display as "exquisite."
"Our famous Marianas-chan, Jebro Leon, will perform with a partner at the CNMI booth during the JATA Tourism Expo in Tokyo next week," Concepcion said.
Another important feature of the opening night was the roast pig provided by Imperial Pacific's Corporate Social Responsibility team, he added.
"It was very popular with guests who experienced an important tradition in local culture," Concepcion said, noting that roast pigs are served at important family and community events.

29 Mar Katy Perry Gets Slimed!~
Posted at 10:33h in Celebrity News, Entertainment, Television 1 Comment
Best. Slime. Moment. Ever!
Katy Perry got slimed at the Kids Choice Awards on Saturday and it was different than how anyone got slimed before…at least from what I remember.
I know what some of you are saying; she is dating Russell Brand so she has been getting slimed like that for some time.
Regardless, check out the classic moment in the video above.-Dr.FB

It's been a while. I've been stopping and starting with books on my To-be-Read pile and distracted by a new craft (crochet) and plans a-foot to move hundreds of miles away. So I'm starting the New Year slowly, and with quick reads. OK, most of these quick reads are crochet patterns and I still haven't quite got my head around them, but hey – gotta start somewhere, right?
Of Mice and Men. I've heard a lot about Of Mice and Men over the years, largely from friends who had to study it for some English exam or other, and mostly about a pigeon which flies into a barn, around the barn, and out again, as pigeons (and other birds) do. Apparently, though, this is a scene of great meaning and examiners like you to think deeply about it and say something which isn't: "The pigeon got lost."My experience of birds in barns is mostly of swallows making their nests in the roof and therefore flying in and out to feed their babies.
The other thing I've taken from the many and bitter complaints of these friends is that they don't think much of Of Mice and Men, and they wouldn't really bother with it. Perhaps it's the unfortunate side effect of having studied it. I didn't, so my pigeon is allowed to be lost.
And while it perhaps hasn't rocketed its way up my personal book-chart, I was pleasantly surprised by Of Mice and Men. I liked the characters, finding them wonderfully easy to imagine (George reminded me of the lead male in Oklahoma!; sounded like him too, or at least the actor who played him in a version I saw last year) and I was genuinely moved by its ending, although not enough to shed tears.
It is not a long book, being barely over a hundred pages long, and the language is far from difficult, but a lot is squeezed into the story about love and friendship and duty and honour and life. It can be read in one sitting, too, which is always a bonus in my eyes.

Trump Says His False Threat of "Tapes" Was Designed to Pressure Comey
Trump first raised the idea of a White House recording system last month, in a tweet he sent just three days after firing Comey.

The White House has periodically curtailed video and audio airing of the daily press briefing, which has always been carried live not only by networks, but by the White House itself.

Aston Martin Vulcan receives AMR Pro kit
The first cars are already being converted (we wouldn't be suprised if most Vulcan owners opt for the upgrades), and the auto will be thundering up the Goodwood hill climb at the Festival of Speed from today and over the weekend. At the back, a new rear wing is found. For reference, Aston's Le Mans-winning Vantage GTE generates 3104Nm. A new design rear wing is in place, with a dual plane design rather than the base car's single plane, with a 20mm Gurney flap featuring on the trailing ...
Powerball, Mega Millions To Be Suspended In Illinois Because Of Budget Woes
But the multistate consortiums that operate the big jackpots aren't feeling confident that their games will maintain integrity in IL so they've put in place plans to suspend the games. The state has been down this road before, sort of. In 2015, almost 4,000 people saw claims that totaled more than $112 million delayed (though they were eventually paid out), according to the Illinois Lottery .

Shkreli Atty Dubs Him 'Genius,' Denies Fraud As Trial Begins
The defense hit back, saying that, while Shkreli's statements to investors weren't always "100 percent accurate", investors "were betting on his genius" rather than his words. Resonating gusto that would have elicited cheers three days earlier during New York City's Pride celebrations, Brafman recounted how Shkreli's investors tried to make sense of him and questioned his sexuality.
Wild have 'pretty good idea' who they'll protect in NHL Expansion Draft
The Golden Knights can sign free agents from June 18-21, but any player they sign during that period also serves as their selection from that team in the expansion draft. Who is their seventh protected forward? However, with his $.4.7 million cap hit for the next two seasons, Lehtera is unlikely to be an attractive option to the Golden Knights-even considering their necessity to reach the salary floor.
Azam Khan attacks Indian Army with controversial statement
But at one place, we hear women cutting off the private parts of soldiers. Khan yesterday said, "Soldiers have been beaten by women in Kashmir, Jharkhand and Assam and their private parts were chopped off".

Dubai sheikh steps in with funds to save village chapel in Cornwall
The citizens of Godolphin Cross were trying to buy the chapel as it's the only community space in the village and were set a target of £100,000 ($129,260) after it was closed in May 2015. Head of the community association, Mr McKie, said "This is wonderful for us and it meant we were able to make an offer".

Toddlers learn to speak by copying the sounds around them. While growing they start recognizing the sounds and can begin to "meow" like a cat or say "woof" like a dog but they learned this skill because they are professional listeners. The skills of truly listening diminish as a toddler matures into adulthood. As can be viewed in the link below to the TED talk by Julian Treasure it is acknowledged that human beings listen only 60% of the time and of that 60% only 25% is retained proving that human interaction is weak.
With today's technologies and the ever growing media entertainment individuals are found to be more reserved. As Treasure stated "many people take refuge in headphones, but they turn big public spaces…into millions of tiny little personal sound bubbles." These "sound bubbles" intensify the lack of communication and human interaction. Listening in this day and age is done mostly through the eyes as people view their Facebook and Instagram accounts however, this form of communication is not realistic. There is no real human interaction over media, true communication is face to face.
Within personal communication there is an important acronym from Treasure that states how humans should interact. The acronym RASA, explains that a true conversation means that a person RECEIVES the information given them, APPRECIATES the words and takes them to heart, SUMMARIZES what is said which helps to retain information and then ASK follow up questions to continue to learn more and show interaction. If RASA is to be followed faithfully then the current culture of how humans interact would be changed. Good interaction and relationship building would become more common if humans worked to become professional listeners again and really focus on the sound patterns, or in other words the conversations around them.

European Paper Recycling Council moves forward on ecodesign of printed paper products
European Paper Recycling Council moves forward on ecodesign of printed paper products
An update has been made to the European Paper Recycling Council's (EPRC) "Assessment of Printed Product Recyclability".
This Scorecard for the Removability of Adhesive Applications now includes an annex for applications where there is sufficient experience and confidence that they will deliver good results on removability.
Non-water-soluble or non-dispersible hot melt adhesives are now exempted from testing under certain conditions. If an adhesive application does not conform to with the conditions in this annex, no conclusion can be made about its removability.
The EPRC considers this a step forward towards improving ecodesign, prolonging the recycling loop for printed graphic paper.
The updated scorecard can be found here.
For further information, please contact Ulrich Leberle at firstname.lastname@example.com or by phone at (+32) 2 627 49 23

USA started it's Olympic tournament against a very solid Slovakian team, or at least we thought. I wouldn't be complaining either, while these three games don't eliminate, playing against good teams early makes you get everything together. Jonathan Quick got the not in the US net, while Jaroslav Halak (I hate this guy) got the start in the Slovakian net. John Carlson is the only Capital player in this game so I'll make sure to praise him early, and often.
Slovakia chose to play a very passive forecheck, opting to play a 1-3-1 in the neutral zone, trying not to let the US walk through neutral.
The strategy work well early until the US found a way to beat it by simply moving their feet and passing. That lead to the first goal by the States on John Carlson first shot, on his first Olympic games. Phil Kessel made a good drop pass to Carlson as they entered the zone, Carlson wound up and bagged a slapshot home past Halak's blocker.
Slovakia got the equalizer on a goal that should have never happened. Hossa played the puck when another Slovak was offsides, but the lineman missed it. Tomas Tatar took advantage of the linesman's error and nots it up at 1-1.
Then the game just got straight up ugly for Slovakia. The USA took commanding control, and Ryan Kesler got his first goal of the tournament to give USA a lead that it would not give up. A one timer from the slot that beat Halak high glove again.
Paul Statsny added the third US goal off of a rebound of a Max Pacioretty shot. Statsny was left alone in front for a simple tap in
David Backes added another goal to make it 4-1. A grind it out type of goal after the puck was loose in the crease. Backes batted it out of mid air by Halak's glove.
The States then went on to score the goals in three straight shots. Paul Statsny then ended Halak's night on a goal that he slipped between a sprawling Halak's legs, 5-1. Phil Kessel made it 6-1 on a tip in of a James Van Riemsdyk shot. Dustin Brown then topped it off with a one tip shot off a Carlson pass, making it 7-1 USA at the end of 2.
USA took it's proverbial foot off the pedal in the third period, keeping the game at 7-1 until the final whistle. USA plays its next game against Russia on Saturday.

Make it the best New Zealand road trip with Scott's tips
Posted on 07/11/2016 by Scott
Hey, I'm Scott. After spending 5 months in Melbourne, I did 2 months of travel around Australia and New Zealand, of which 36 days were spent exploring New Zealand (September 2016).
For me, a campervan was the best option to see the best sights in New Zealand. In the 5 weeks, I planned to drive all over both the South and North Island. Where possible I wanted to stay in free campsites or relatively cheap ones.
I was pretty successful in sticking to this plan, with a few interesting campground experiences. Below you'll find the places I recommend visiting when going for a road trip in New Zealand. I've rated these from 1 star (mweh) to 5 stars (must see).
South Island highlights
Most people I spoke to describe the South as the most impressive. I would have to agree to a certain level. I spent equal time on both islands but should have spent more on the South. However, the weather was not on my side on the North Island.
Or compare all Spaceships campervans
In the itinerary below, you can find all the most memorable things to do and see in a particular area.
From Christchurch to Dunedin
(all attractions and sights are rated on a scale of 1 (mweh) to 5 stars (must-see))
- 4*: View the destruction from the earthquake damage and the regeneration process.
- 3*: Re:Start Mall which is made up of containers, with a range of shops and cafes.
- 4*: The botanical gardens are also worth a visit and a good picnic spot.
- 3*: RAF Museum which was free and had some interesting displays.
- 4*: Christchurch Gondola for stunning views.
- 4*: Take the scenic route via Lyttelton onto the Banks Peninsula.
- 3*: Oamaru for a break from driving to admire the historic building by the dock.

From Dunedin to Queenstown
- 4*: Lunch in Dunedin and explore the historic buildings and museums.
- 5*: Larnach Castle, New Zealand's only 'castle'. Beautifully restored home and well worth a visit even just for the views from the turret.
- 2*: See the penguins and albatross if you time it right on Otago Peninsula (I did not).
- 5*: Lake Te Anau (Gateway to Milford Sounds).
Queenstown to Greymouth
(all attractions and sights are rated on a scale of 1 (mweh) to 5 stars (must-see))

- 3*: Collingwood.
- 5*: Marlborough Sounds.
- 5*: Picton (Victoria Domain walk).

North Island road trip
Unfortunately, the weather was not on my side on the North Island. The typical phrase of "it's like Wales" does come to mind when driving around the rolling green hills. Despite the weather, I still managed a number of scenic drives and walks.
From Wellington to New Plymouth

If travelling with Trenitalia, you need to know the Monfalcone to Syracuse train schedule: the first train leaves at 05:39, while the last ride is at 21:06. A Monfalcone to Syracuse train cost about 132.1 €. But how long is the train ride from Monfalcone to Syracuse? Your journey takes about 19 hours on average. Thanks to Trenitalia, offers, you can save on your trip from Monfalcone to Syracuse and find low cost tickets starting from 133 €!

Now, I've said it before, I've learned to wait for the live shows to form a definite opinion of any of the contestants, but there are a few who have already piqued my interest and as of this moment, it's all about that proverbial guessing game of who will enter the Top 12/13.
Well, here's how I personally rank the Top 24 based from whatever we saw from them - auditions down to their final performance just before Top 24. Again, PERSONALLY! Haha. Just have to emphasize on that one.
- Pia Toscano
- Thia Megia
- Ashthon Jones
- Julie Zorrilla
- Scott McCreery
- Robbie Rosen
- Tim Halperin
- Paul McDonald
- Jacob Lusk
- Naima Adedapo
Of course, this is subject to change, seeing that I did not get why Katelyn Epperly made it last year, then suddenly became my second favorite next to Didi Benami and Siobhan Magnus tied in first place. Heck, she even ranked so high in my Idol 100 countdown. Haha.

How to start :
1) Install wscrack_32 or wscrack_64 depending on your Windows version - x86 or x64.
2) Install trial app store
3) Enter wscrack_anycpu \ TokensExtractor.exe
4) Now click on "Brute Force tokens.dat"
5) Locate your product and click "CrackIt!" (bottom of the list is mostly "............. (Trial)")
6) App is now full license.
7) Run app and see if it is unlocked.
I suggested above only as simple start. Any unskilled user can do it.
If you think you have some skill it would be wise for you to make redistributables for all apps you like
so you can install them anytime later without the need of windows store or even internet connection.
See "redistribution" folder for details.
After trial period MS will not allow you download apps again.
But my trial has already expired ! What to do ? Read info/MachineID.txt.
It requires some skill but it is possible to reset all trials.
As another solution I would suggest installing win8 VM with clean LiveID and getting appx from there.
before you read info/StoreWUAuth.txt carefully.
if you delete this file WSService recreate it empty with no licenses.
You can also backup and restore this file.
Force WSService to revalidate licenses :
rundll32.exe WSClient.dll,WSpTLR licensing
If WSService find bogus signature on an app it disables app.
To reenable it run WSServiceCrk and run revalidation manually.
It will see licenses are valid and reenable apps.
It is highly recommended to always have WSServiceCrk running.
Windows have some scheduled tasks about WS.
Run taskschd.msc and see yourself in \Microsoft\Windows\WS.
How to disable them :
schtasks /change /disable /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\WS\License Validation"
schtasks /change /disable /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\WS\WSRefreshBannedAppsListTask"
If you modify some files inside appcontainer app may become invalid.
To reenable it without reinstalling restore original files and look at
You will see subkey with
Delete subkey
You can monitor acitivity of WSServiceCrk by running DebugView from sysinternals.
To see what WSServiceCrk does check menu item:
You will see when and what is validated by WSService.
In addition to WSService one more protection component exist - authentication of downloads.
Microsoft will allow you to download content only on behalf of valid license signed by them.
When you start installing an app from winstore client - request goes to windows update service.
If package is in the local cache (C:\windows\softwaredistribution\download) it is used without redownloading.
Otherwise storewuauth.dll is invoked. It's purpose - return downloading URLs to windows update.
Authentication tokens are passed to microsoft as parameters. If microsoft finds them invalid it returns
http error 403 (Forbidden). Storewuauth caches authentication tokens no matter request was successfull or not
and next time you try to redownload the app uses the same bad tokens from its cache even if license
was reinstalled and now valid. That's why you will never recover from this error until you delete
storewuauth cache.
When this kind of error happens you can see error code 0x8024600e in winstore client.
Happily you can easily clean token cache. Delete this file :
Next time you try storewuauth will have to construct new tokens and now they will be valid (if license is valid).
Please remember : without VALID MICROSOFT SIGNED license YOU CANT DOWNLOAD ANYTHING.
get valid license. Only then you'll be able to download again.
If your trial is over see MachineID.txt. You can reset all trials.
Right idea - do not download/update through winstore client any apps you have bogus license for.
Correct way - grab appx from VM and install it without winstore.
On a VM you can try apps forever if you do things described in MachineID.txt - and without sacrificing your real LiveID.
If you still want to update through winstore - you need first uninstall your bogus license in TokenExtractor or you'll get 0x8024600e. But dont forget about trial period. If its over you risk to leave yourself with nothing.
Don't worry, it's a false alarm. I promise

Nine years short of 1700 years ago, bishops representing the whole Christian Church in the Christian Roman Empire gathered to agree the wording by which we still declare our faith, in the Creed proclaimed at the Mass and the Divine Liturgy throughout the Catholic and Orthodox Church. This is the faith that Christ is of one substance with the Father - they share the same nature equally; just as any earthly father and son do, so do the Heavenly Father and Son.
It was the first time the bishops had needed to be called together, because an unprecedented controversy between good people threatened to tear the Church apart and even finally undermine it. For the consequences were all or nothing. Could a human be divine in the same way as the Father? Could someone who had been born in time, also be the Son from all eternity, before all ages? A priest called Arius had concluded that Jesus was the first of all God's creatures ever to be produced, and He was divine only in the sense that His divinity had been given Him by the Father. It was not His own divinity, but someone else's, lent to Him. Thus the Son may live eternally with the Father and the Spirit now, but He had a beginning, and there was a time when He did not exist. In Arius' thinking, even though Jesus had a divine nature, he came after His Father. But others argued back – if He was inferior to the Father, how could Jesus be the one who reconciles us with God?
Various theories were proposed, to make sense of the belief that everyone shared, that Christ is both divine and human. From direct memory, He was a real human being who was born, and lived and died, and then rose again, ascended into heaven and sent among us His Holy Spirit. But how could a human being also be God? Is not God a spirit? Is the Father the spirit who inspired a human being, and filled him with His own divine life, making Jesus His Son, so that His sacrifice on the Cross is acceptable and wins our forgiveness and salvation, so that we, just like Him, can be adopted by the Father, and receive a share in God's nature as His children? The explanations for how this could all add up were many and inventive. Thus, Jesus had a nature that was like the Father's. But does that mean he was unlike us? Or, He was a human that became divine too, by adoption. But does that mean He was in the end unlike God? Or, He has a human and a divine nature – they are united with the Father by a single will, or energy, or character. But does that mean he was half-God and half-human, unlike any other human being, or unlike God at all? There had even been those who said that the Father and the Son were one and the same Person, but in different forms for different times and reasons. Like a telescope sliding in and out, first there might be the Father, in the Old Testament; then the Father is followed by the Son in the Gospels, and afterwards comes the Holy Spirit.
None of these explanations is adequate. They only go part of the way to explain what we recognise in our life in Christ within the communion of the Holy Spirit in His Church. Or else they lead to distortion, leaving us without Three Persons in the Trinity, or offering us a Christ who is either a human like no other, or a heavenly being who only appears to be human but who isn't God either.
So we keep coming back to the explanation that was settled upon by the Fathers at Nicaea. First, they agreed that, if the work of the Cross and Resurrection genuinely brings about our forgiveness, our redemption through Christ's Bloodshed, and our reconciliation with the Father, then it had to happen physically, in our own, real, human flesh. If it did not, it was a mirage, a myth. There are plenty of stories about the interventions of heavenly figures like Hercules or Shiva –these are religious myths, but they do not have any effect – they are not a fact of life in creation. So Jesus had to be a real human being with a completely human nature.
The second thing they considered was, if a real human being died on the Cross and rose again, how did it connect with God? If it was just a miracle visited upon one human being from outside, it may be an inspiring, symbolic story, but where is the effect involving the rest of us? So the Fathers agreed that the incarnation of Christ, and His Cross and Resurrection, to bring about our salvation and our reconciliation with God, was not just a human event. It had to involve God too. Otherwise, how did a human Jesus unite us with God on His Cross?How did His own resurrection take any of the rest of us any nearer God from out of our mortality than we were before? How were the difference and the distance between God and humanity overcome? So, they agreed, Jesus must have been God too, God the Son, united with His Father from all eternity, and united with us – true God, true Man.
Arius still could not bring himself to say this. He saw nothing incomplete in saying that Jesus the Man embodied the Word of God that He had received, so that His sacrifice for us was acceptable, and the resurrection vindicated it. Perhaps he was recalling his own father with honour, and pictured a Divine Son who was lower than God the Father - God as he is in Himself. But the Fathers of the Council of Nicaea, said no; this was not enough. If Jesus Christ is not God as He is in Himself in the same way as the Father, then the connection between us and God is not made, and we are not saved. If God did not become man, then man cannot become divine as Christ promised in the Gospel - which we read every year both at the time of the Ascension leading up to Pentecost, and in the days of Holy Week leading up to the Cross – when he said, "All mine are yours, and yours are mine."
So the Fathers of Nicaea insisted that Jesus did not merely possess a divine kind of nature; he did not have a nature like the Father's. His nature is the same as the Father's. This is why, especially in the Christian East, we unequivocally and repeatedly say that Jesus is Our Lord and God and Saviour.
There is still a tendency in the West to think that, because Jesus is Son of God, He is somehow on a lower rung in the hierarchy of heaven. It suits the world we live in to imagine that He belongs in the world of the religious imagination, a mythical heavenly being. Or, He is just the same as other great religious leaders in history. But Christians assert something entirely different, when we stress the full force of what we mean every Christmas when we hail the birth of Emmanuel, the Son of God who is God among us. It is fully God that is born. It is fully in our flesh that Jesus, who is our God, died on the Cross and rose again to buy us back to be one with the Father as He Himself is one. This is not mere spirituality. This is not a religious point of view. It is the Christian understanding of human nature, bearing the full impact of Christ our God. It is the Christian understanding of what human nature has been made into and that we are thus becoming.
In the Lord's Prayer, of which today's gospel is an elaboration (John 17.1-13), we ask daily for the Kingdom to come on earth as it is in heaven. We often think of the concept of heaven on earth and how it is realised, or struggled for. It is thus easy to think of heaven in earthly terms, while we pass through the world in expectation of its perfection beyond this life. Yet the hard part is the most demanding. It is not to live in this world as if in the next. It is to realise that where we actually live we are in heaven already. This radically affects our behaviour and our outlook. We do not follow Christ out of duty. We do not keep his commands out of exhortation and obedience. We do not long for the Spirit out of inclination. We live in the Kingdom because we already and permanently face into its blessedness. We follow Christ out of love and because we are caught up in His blessedness. We keep His commands, not out of obedience but because we love nothing else more. We long for the Spirit, not merely as an exercise, but because our entire being is taken up with Him.
The renewal of the Church and its perseverance in the faith is thus not down to our effort, as we constantly imagine, but always down to the action of God, as He unites with humanity in Christ, so that when they ask for a description of God's identity, His Name and His work, we reply, "God is with us". He does not just bring heaven down to us on earth, but makes earth penetrate heaven. Thus here in this space we are in no other place than before the Throne to which Christ ascended in glory.
This week, across our Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, we pray for our parishes to be vibrant, to be places where human beings may encounter the living Christ, to be bodies of people, individuals, who are themselves encounters with Christ in heaven. Imagine what it would be like if coming to Church was not just about us coming to worship Christ our God. Imagine what it would be like if it was about Christ coming into us, so that He could make himself seen by others in us. Imagine what a change it would make of us.
Archbishop Michael Ramsey used to explain the faith of Nicaea – about how the Father is like the Son and the Son like the Father. He would say that we get it all the wrong way round. Instead of getting people to think how Jesus was the likeness of God, consider that in God is as He is in Christ, that in God there is no unChristlikeness at all. Now imagine what it would mean if we could say, in David, in Sarah - whatever our names - in me there is no unChristlikeness at all.

This is not a photo of my pantry. It's from the OXO website and I'm now the happy buyer yet perplexed owner of a slew of these state-of-the-art containers.
Okay, I was touting bins yesterday and today I'm onto a container discussion. Do you see a theme here? It must be spring (as in spring cleaning).
Now the reason I'm not 100% satisfied with my container purchases is that my cupboards, no matter how I sort and organize never look like this picture. Which drives me a little crazy!
First, it's nearly impossible to ascertain the perfect size for various items. I pour in the pretzels and they don't entirely fit! So what do I do with the leftover pretzels? Doesn't it kind of defeat the point of the lovely containers if I leave the spillover in the original pretzel bag?
Plus, when everything is filled to the brim it looks aesthetically pleasing but when the cereal, crackers, whatever, falls below halfway the look isn't quite so dapper.
So, I'm partially content. With everything in either a container or sorted with like items in matching bins it's a big improvement. But I'm still trying to determine what to do with extra contents lest I sabotage my organization efforts with loose packages gone wild.
And, I'm also trying to figure out how to refrain from getting anal about diminishing amounts lest I go bonkers whenever people eat. After all, having the food for consumption is the main purpose, right. Sometimes I get confused and think it's just for decoration. Oh, wait, that would be the intention of the OXO picture, whereas my containers are meant for real usage.
So, it turns out that trying to replicate the OXO website photo is just as absurd as people who continually try to keep up with the Joneses. Futile.

A soon to be inked and colored comic project for my class on Spanish Comics!
Posted in Drawing

Maybe this is because I don't know the Divine Comedy very well, but it definitely looks like something horrible has happened to Santa Claus.
You should finish this with color and stuff. Definitely one of your cooler drawings.
This is quite possibly one of the coolest things I've ever seen. When this is finished, I'm planning to request a full-color print for purposes of hanging in my room.
Great job, brosef!
Wow! So much detail!

So, since it well and truly peaked in the 80's, we're not really sure neon has ever really gone out of fashion, but one thing's for sure…this coming summer, neon is better than ever.
On the fashion front, neon is really a signal that the weather is warming up. Rather than go all out 80's, however, these days we tend to wear pops of neon, whether it's a casual hot pink tee, a range of neons in a floral print, or as a pop of neon in a piece of jewellery or a scarf.
In the home, neon works best in small bursts. In large volumes, neon can be somewhat overwhelming! For a bit of edge in your home, think about adding a neon display tray, a neon sign or a neon lamp.
Pops of neon in artworks also work well. If you are not sure about whether neon will work in your home, try testing the waters with a neon cushion or two. This is an inexpensive way of feeling out whether or not your home can work a neon edge.
We saw loads of neon home décor pieces at the recent Reed Gift Fairs, which took place in Melbourne in August. Here are just a few of our favourite neon finds from the show:
Executive Concepts had these neon trays that went straight to the top of my wishlist. Their neon photo frames and stools were also standouts.
Independence Studios had some gorgeous neon lamps for the kiddiewinks. So sweet!
Pumpt (Outliving) had a colourful range of pool accessories, with hints of neon throughout.
Sunnylife were the life of the party, and their range of neon lights proved very popular.
See what other trends are on the horizon by visiting Reed Gift Fairs Sydney September, taking place from Saturday 17 – Tuesday 20 September at the Sydney Exhibition Centre @ Glebe Island.

PITTSBURGH (AP) The Pittsburgh Steelers not anymore have a very problem. And that may often be a dilemma pertaining to the remainder from the NFL.
Old, slower and over? Not rather yet.
Ben Roethlisberger identified apart the particular NFL verts hardest protection and the Steelers rattled your nearly unflappable Brady in a 25-17 triumph on Sunday, adding an end in order to this two-time MVP s 10 years of prominence covering the protecting AFC champions.
NE-Pit Gallery
Brady came in 6-1 all-time from the Steelers, setting up eye-popping amounts inside your process. He never became the chance on the chilly morning with Heinz Field. Pittsburgh (6-2) restricted your ball with regard to virtually 39 minutes and also certainly not make Brady have suitable endured rhythm.
It s been all Tom Brady versus the Pittsburgh Steelers plus shopping to come back around the past, the best way they utes held the Pittsburgh Steelers , along with I believe anybody didn't remember about our crime a small amount as well as items these people ve been carrying out released there, Pittsburgh linebacker LaMarr Woodley said. I consider they will took than a small personal.
Playing resourcefully and doing the job almost entirely upon short, safe, underneath routes, Roethlisberger concluded 36 associated with 50 goes to get 365 meters and a couple of touchdowns because the particular Steelers gained their final direct after a 2-2 start.
We could be as good as all of us would like to be, Roethlisberger said. When we all don capital t kill ourself and halt ourselves, you can easliy end up being really dangerous.
Brady flushed for just two touchdowns but used for a season-low 198 yards. His make an effort to lead the particular Patriots to an unlikely comeback concluded any time Pittsburgh s sacked him, forcing a fumble that will slapped in the end zoom with 8 just a few seconds still left to supply a final margin.
We many ought to professionally appearance in that hand mirror and also figure out what we want to be far better at, Brady said.
There ended up being absolutely no good sense involving panic one of many Patriots, who fell right tie up along with Buffalo atop your AFC East. Yet the Steelers would one thing very little group has been in a position to make it happen year: continue Brady beneath wraps.
Pittsburgh sacked your pet three times, held extensive phone on pace for an NFL report intended for yards insurance coverage in a time that will 39 yards on six receptions even though limiting this Patriots for their fewest things since a 34-14 reduction that will Cleveland continue year.
The Patriots punted a number of times, overlooked a arena goal while in the finally quarter in which could have drawn these just a touchdown as well as failed that will heal an onside cease with just simply about a couple of units remaining.
Not the kind of pretty quick execution which utes recently been this trait of Brady and coach Bill Belichick utes hugely effective tenure.
It only wasn t a genuinely excellent day for folks in just about any phase belonging to the game, in any area, Belichick said. We simply just didn t perform a excellent sufficient job. That utes genuinely most of you can find to help say.
Brady as well as Belichick continue attached together with Don Shula in addition to Dan Marino for most wins by way of coach/quarterback tandem. Win No. 117 have to delay a minimum of per week following Steelers emphatically awoke out of a good early-season slumber which integrated one-sided losses that will Baltimore and also Houston.
Pittsburgh didn t panic or anxiety after the slow-moving start. And as you move the Steelers weren t willing to declare they will re back, there was an absolute sense associated with vindication on a evening in which felt more such as January than the later part of October, in addition to due to cold weather.
It vertisements an enormous step, linebacker Lawrence Timmons said. The New England Patriots have Belichick and Brady. This is often a workforce this contends around this AFC on an annual basis and also goes to help the tournament or perhaps that Super Bowl. So obtaining the following win, in the house, can be large in addition to something to construct on.
On both features with the ball.
Roethlisberger features made some sort of career and earned two Super Bowls through chucking this strong using abandon. On Sunday he or she didn capital t finish some sort of pass above twenty six yards. He didn t have got to.
Roethlisberger persistently identified Antonio Brown (a career-high nine receptions), Heath Miller Mike Wallace (seven catches) with short as well as second time beginners routes.
The West Coast-style solution toiled perfectly.
Pittsburgh utes personal trainer scoring drives lasted 11, 16, 10, 14 as well as 11 plays. The Steelers modified twelve involving 16 lastly downs and Shaun Suisham kicked about three discipline goals.
It vertisements really frustrating, New England nose take on said. You chat concerning enjoying a team throughout second-and-longs and third-and-longs as well as benefiting from those situations. We had these with those people situations; we just simply didn t exploit them.
Despite currently being dominated for extended stretches while in the first half, the Patriots trailed just simply 17-10 at the break. Yet your powerful Brady has been competent to muster repeatedly versus this Steelers in the course of his career never appeared. On similar domain wherever they earned not one but two AFC championships, Brady never really became comfortable.
We have that will defeat these individuals today, safe practices said. We re discussing the following prominence that New England ersus possessed upon us. I consider most of us ve gained extra Super Bowls, visited far more Super Bowls when compared with many people have. It ersus certainly not concerning history. We were being ecstatic to help win today.
Notes: Woodley done by using not one but two sacks to get the 1st Steeler to get a number of totes in some consecutive games. New England RB Kevin Faulk went with regard to 32 meters with half a dozen carries in addition to ensnared all 5 subsides to get thirty yards within his initial sport on the season. Patriots shed for just your second time inside their past eleven game titles approaching off some sort of bye and also lost in October pertaining to simply the seventh moment since 2003. New England TE placed some sort of career huge using eleven catches. The Steelers enjoyed not having offensive captain Hines Ward James Farrior , exactly who overlooked the experience by using injuries. New England defensive lineman Andre Carter had a couple of sacks to the 11th occasion around his career.
Big Ben goes for 365, Steelers top Pats
Giants prevent letdown, rally by Dolphins
Lions rule Tebow around 45-10 romp
Bills sack Redskins on the lookout for moments inside 23-0 win
49ers whip Browns for fifth directly win
Dalton aids Bengals succeed last straight

INOX of Exeter has placed a sign on the A390 to the west of Truro. The sign proudly announces the imminent arrival of a 'major urban extension', although building on open countryside well outside the current urban area looks more like a new village than an 'extension'. Be that as it may, INOX tells us that Langarth will be 'a place to live, a place to work and a place to enjoy'. This slogan is well worth de[a]constructing.
Let's start by contrasting it with another, very similar, slogan that has been around among our friends in the Breton autonomist movement for some decades – 'vivre, décider et travailler en Bretagne ' or 'Live, decide and work in Brittany'. If we borrow this we could apply it to Cornwall as 'Live, work and decide in Cornwall'. Let's call this a Cornish slogan and compare it with the INOX version.
In the INOX world, 'decide' is replaced by 'enjoy'. Citizenship is swapped for hedonism. What we have here is a combination of three things: the familiar tourist gaze, a shallow consumer culture oriented towards immediate gratification, and a corporate ideology. In the latter, individualised household units live; they work (to get their money); they enjoy (by spending it again). This is a depoliticised message, stripped of the political action that's part of the Breton/Cornish trilogy. 'Enjoy' replaces 'decide'. Passive consumption replaces active community action.
They're not that different. Indeed, the first two elements (live and work) are identical. But the third makes the overall message very different. Moreover, INOX's explicit reference to 'place' might be more significant than it first appears.
What about the explicit reference to the 'place' that INOX invites us to enjoy? Their 'place' looks like a convenient backdrop, a location for the functional activities of living, working and enjoying. There is little sense of 'a place' having a deeper, more aesthetic meaning. It's merely a means of easing the quiet desperation of the production and consumption cycle.
More than that, place is itself incorporated into the consumption process. It's not the specific utility or beauty of a place that matters; it's the provision of 'open space', some trees and greenery and community 'facilities'. Any place could be redesigned to provide this package. Which suggests that it's not the actual place where the building occurs that matters, but the context of that place. What's important is what views it commands, how near it is to other consumption foci, or the communications infrastructure linking it to other places.
Places can of course mean a lot more than this. From a native perspective, local places are imbricated in our identity, entwined with our heritage, rooted in our pasts. Those who come to live at Langarth, whether from other places in Cornwall or, more likely, places well outside Cornwall, will not be able to view this place in that light. In fact, if the place does hold that deeper, denser texture for anyone, it will be irrevocably lost as the place of memory is replaced by the place of the INOX dream. Or nightmare.
Each slogan, the corporate and the Cornish, also has its missing aspects. The INOX slogan coyly omits mention of a fourth function of 'place' – 'a place to make profits'. Meanwhile, there's the autonomist implication. Where the unstated corollary of 'live, work and decide in Cornwall' would be 'a place to (decide to) be Cornish'.
This has no place in INOX's place.
These two visions are not just alternatives. INOX's Moloch devours the landscape in order to create new places for us to live in, work in, and 'enjoy'; the autonomists' Cornishness, incorporates the landscape in our sense of identity. They're locked in fundamental conflict. This is a zero-sum game. They're not complementary; they may not be compatible. INOX's places can only thrive through the destruction of these Cornish places; in the Cornish places, there would be little place for INOX's money-making. It's not just a question of ideas. It's about control and power, about democracy and finance. They have the money, own the places and command the ear of decision-makers; we have the moral high ground, know the places and will surely ultimately prevail.

Gymwear is not something you necessarily associate with confidence at first glance, but I have found throughout my fitness journey it is one of the key players to make you feel like you can do literally anything. You may or may not have been following my weight loss & fitness journey over the past few months, so you may not know that I've lost 85lbs which is roughly 6st (as of January 18th 2017) and that at my biggest I was 18st 9lbs or that I have been a size 24/26 in the past.
I personally found when I first joined a gym, it was the scariest thing ever, especially being severely overweight. Logically you would think it would be fine, everyone in the same boat trying to get fitter or lose weight, but I found stepping in the gym, most people had the bodies that I could only dream about and I felt myself getting very anxious and panicky. It didn't help that I wore the baggiest top and jogging pants I could, to try to hide my shape and blend in, but it did quite the opposite. I felt frumpy and fat, and my lack of confidence made me stand out like a sore thumb. I couldn't give my all in my workouts as I felt like I was just being watched and I just wanted to get in and out and not go back!
It all changed for me when I discovered TLC Sport's slimming legging range. I was on the hunt for some leggings that would be flattering and opaque and I stumbled across TLC Sport's activewear and never looked back. I have honestly been a huge fan for the last 5/6 years and cannot recommend them enough.
I've found the worst part about being overweight is the lack of gym clothes for anybody over a size 12-14 it seems, but to my amazement TLC Sport have always catered to women of all sizes! It's such a breath of fresh air to see stylish and flattering gymwear that is catered for all women, no matter what size!
Investing in gym clothes that make you feel confident and comfortable is the biggest gym game changer. When you feel great in yourself and what you wear, you feel like you can do anything and take on the world! Running that 5k, no biggie! Hitting that new squat PR, easy peasy!
Comfort is key for confidence, if you feel comfortable in what you wear, the rest comes easy! If you feel uncomfortable because of the style or fit, it will affect your confidence and in turn affect your workouts too! I have literally gone from the girl who hid in the baggy t-shirts and joggers to now wearing figure hugging leggings (even at a size 18-20) and flattering tank tops and bras! It doesn't matter what size you are, only how you feel!
You can read more of my thoughts on the TLC Sport Slimming leggings here. I am such a huge fan of these leggings and the company as a whole! TLC Sport is run by an amazing mother-daughter duo that have been killing it recently! I love that they are for all women, not for the 'already fit' women and I owe them so much for giving me confidence to get where I am now in my fitness journey!
Have you ever tried TLC Sport gymwear or have any great tips for getting the confidence in the gym? Let me know in the comments below!

2-in-1 Ice Skating Set, Puffy Jacket, Saige's Bracelet, Mini Nellie Doll | American Girl
So… I wasn't planning on getting anything during Cyber Monday… But then I did.
Just a couple of things, though. I'd rather wait and see what's in Girl of the Year 2015's collection.
2-in-1 Ice Skating Set wrap and pants with Isabelle's pj top and slippers
I got the 2-in-1 Skating Set (which coincidentally is being modeled by a #53 in the stock photos), because I knew I could use the pieces in different outfits. The pants and wrap make a great dance warm-up set (she just needs actual dance shoes…) or comfy lounge wear. Unfortunately, the blue leotard and skirt shed like crazy. I had a hard time getting all the fibers off the black pants. So… those are staying in the box until I can figure out how to keep them from making a mess.
The ice skates and guards from the 2-in-1 set, blue puffy jacket and mittens
The skates were pretty tough to get on at first, but they're really cute. The blade guards fit well and are made of a rubbery material, but can still fall off. They're great for helping the doll to stand, though.
I also got the Puffy Jacket and Mittens (the link has disappeared from AG's site, but you can find the sets on eBay or Amazon easily). The jacket fits well and doesn't make the dolls look overly puffy, but the zipper can be hard to get started and the jacket doesn't leave a lot of arm movement. The fingerless gloves are really cute! They're a great finishing touch for an ice skating outfit.
A performance in pink
The ice skates also work well with Isabelle's sparkle dress (even if the skirt is a bit longer than on most ice skating outfits).
Saige's Woven Bracelet
I also got something for me to wear – Saige's Woven Bracelet. One of the benefits of having freakishly small wrists haha… It's nothing too special, and it feels more plastic-y than woven, but it's one of those things you could wear out in public and only a few people might know where it was from.
Mini Nellie and book
And last, but not least, Mini Nellie! It seemed only fitting that my first Josefina mold doll should have a mini Josefina mold doll. I really wish they hadn't changed the style of the mini dolls. I can see how the BeForever versions can be easier to pose and handle, but I really loved the fact that the old style mini dolls were made the same way as their 18″ counterparts. Nellie is extremely cute – I actually think I like her mini version slightly better than her full size version.
Best friends forever!
Overall, I'm really happy with everything I got during Cyber Monday. Now to see what GOTY '15 brings…

God and Caesar
I am always amazed at how up-to-date the Bible is. Recently, while studying through the Gospel of Luke, I came to the section in chapter 20 where the religious elite of Jerusalem were trying to trap Jesus in a chargeable offense. They even sent spies who pretended to be righteous to ask Him trick questions.
One of the questions was about whether it was right for a pious, law-following Jew to pay the required tax to the Roman government ... to Caesar. And you all know how Jesus "out-clevered" them by showing that they were already in league with Rome since they all carried Roman coins in their pockets, and used the exchange system to make a profit. (Turns out, they charged folks high fees to "exchange" Roman and Greek coins for the Temple half-shekel used to pay for Temple sacrificial items and the Temple tax.) While appearing to be against the Roman occupation of Palestine, these hypocrites were actually making bank out of the situation.
But Jesus, knowing their deceitful plan, silences them with the magisterial statement: "Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, and give to God what belongs to God." And we've all heard what that means: we owe certain attitudes and actions - like paying taxes - to the government, and we owe certain attitudes and actions to God as well.
To the government, we owe obedience, and honor, and intentional service to make our community better, and - I believe - informed participation in the political system. As Christ-followers, we ought to be the best citizens.
To God we owe authentic worship and service, and we spend our lives becoming more and more deeply in love with God through Jesus Christ our Savior. These are things we all know.
But ... have you ever thought about the opportunity you may one day have to "give to God what used to be Caesar's"? Have you ever thought about how great it would be if the government (Caesar) came up with a way to fund the work of God, and they decided to do it through you and me?
Well, in my mind, that is exactly what will happen this May, '07. Most of us are going to get a check for $600 or $1200 or more from the government. Now, while I am sure we could all find a way to spend it, in reality it is money we never expected, and most of us don't really, really need. If the government had not decided to give us some of our money back, we all would have gone on with our lives and none of us would have awakened one morning to say "how come the Congress isn't giving me $600 this month?" So, I have a great idea!
Here's my idea: Take what Caesar gives you and give it to God. Give your money away, to your church, or to some organization that is truly engaged in Gospel work. Just think of yourselves as the middle man through which Caesar is "giving back to God what is actually His!"
Now I know some of you are deeply in debt, and perhaps you need to take that money and pay off some bills, or at least pay then down. My fear though, is that those who should use it to pay off debt will use it to buy more stuff they don't need, or even worse, use it as a down payment on that entertainment system they don't need, and can't afford! So, just give it away! And if you can't give it all, give half.
We've decided at our house that we're giving it all to the work of the Kingdom at Northpoint (our congregation). And we can hardly wait to take advantage of this "once in a life time opportunity." Imagine, Caesar giving to God what is actually His, and letting me be the middle man. Now that's a government program I can fully endorse.
Hope this helps,

People attached a lot of adjectives to the Mets' chances before Saturday's news.
Young. Eager. Resilient. Solid.
It's amazing how the conversation changed so quickly. The words have taken a darker turn. And now, the best descriptive anyone can attach to disgraced closer Jennry Mejia is "old-school."
None of the new hipster juice for him. When Mejia apparently decided to entangle himself in the PED game, he went with Stanozolol. That was so dumb on so many levels that one would think only a player for some hapless, directionless franchise would think of doing it.
For one thing, that anabolic steroid was thought to have gone out of style around the same time as bell bottoms and tie-dyed T-shirts. The steroid testers developed their early tests to detect exactly that drug, along with a gaggle of other golden oldies like Nandrolone, Androstenedione, and…
