New Orleans: A Call to Resist! P.O. Box 941 Knickerbocker Station, New York NY 10002
Telephone: 866-482-2539 * Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
September 9, 2005
Dear Friend,
We are writing to ask you to add your name to the signatories of the statement below and circulate it to others and encourage them to sign and circulate it.
The actions and inactions of the Bush regime have been criminal. They are responsible for the many lives that have been lost and the suffering that 100,000's of people have been subjected to in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. To add insult to injury, the very officials whose actions put peoples' lives at risk
demonized people as "looters" and "thugs" when they took it upon themselves to get the food, water and medicine they needed to survive. People are rightly angry at all this.
Think of the difference it will make if thousands of people who have histories of fighting against the oppression of Black people and other injustices people have been forced to endure here in the US and around the world join together to condemn the criminal actions of Bush & Co. And if they're joined by many other people who burn with hatred at the actions of the Bush regime.
So sign this statement. And get it to others and encourage them to sign it, circulate it more broadly and promote it in any and every way they can. Many, many people in the devastated areas are still at risk. One of the things they need is broad condemnation and massive resistance to the crimes of Bush & Co.

The actions of the Bush regime in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast amount to mass murder, whether by incompetence or design. This is an urgent situation, calling out for urgent action.
We remind all people that this regime illegitimately came to power in the first place through the disfranchisement of hundreds of thousands of Black voters. We remind all people that this regime contains highly placed officials and
influential supporters with histories and viewpoints that are not only racist, but in some cases downright genocidal.
What happened in New Orleans indeed calls into question the whole history and nature of America and the national debate on this needs to rage. At the same time, New Orleans is also an extreme example of what the Bush regime in particular has meant for the masses of Black people in this country. None of this can be tolerated any longer. There can not be three more years of what happened in New Orleans. There cannot be one more day. WE CANNOT WAIT!
The initiative of ordinary people in rescuing and supporting people at risk has been heroic. The outpouring of support from all walks of life shows where people's hearts are. But we also need, very badly, RESISTANCE.
Therefore, we call on people to mount a massive movement to politically drive out the illegitimate Bush regime. We call on people everywhere to bring this demand out wherever you go, to build and support all actions aiming to do this, and in this way to not only defend the people from even worse horrors but to begin to build a movement that can change the course of history.
At the same time, we call on all people to support and mount actions around the following demands on the government in the current crisis:
1) Intensify the rescue operations. Stop the repression of those volunteers who are attempting to rescue people.
2) Immediate and safe evacuation for all who want it. Provide support for all those wishing to remain in New Orleans. Stop the forced dispersal of people from the New Orleans area and provide assistance to people who wish to return.
3) Stop the killing and shooting of people attempting to meet their basic needs. Stop the demonization of Black people as "looters." Stop the aggressive actions of the National Guard and Police. NOW. And an immediate apology from Bush for
his "zero tolerance for 'looters'" remark which lent force to all this repression.
4) Stop the censorship of the people of the affected areas. Bring out the full truth of what is happening, what did happen and how this came to be. And hold those responsible for this criminally accountable.
5) Immediately end the racist slander coming out from politicians and the media.
____ Add my name to "New Orleans: A Time to Resist!"
____ Contact me immediately, I can help get this initiative out there.

Open Thread: It Happened to You
This is your place to talk about the funny, sad, outrageous things that are happening in your life -- whenever you're ready.
In 2002, I joined a support group for bulimics.
I had been what I considered "sorta bulimic" since 1997. I used this phrase because I binged and purged randomly, and in my mind true bulimics threw up after every meal, like Meredith Baxter in the made-for-TV-movie "Kate's Secret."
For the uninitiated: "Kate's Secret" is only the most hilarious eating disorder movie ever. Kate is bulimic to the max! She steals and eats milk and cookies in the middle of a grocery store then pukes while horror movie-like music plays.
I didn't steal food or hear music when I puked, so I figured I was cool. Until 5 years of intermittent vomiting began to make my throat burn, my teeth yellow and my period stop. That's when I decided that maybe I did have an "issue," and looked up the group.
Members were asked to make the commitment to attend sessions every Tuesday at 5 pm, for 12 weeks. The meetings were made up of a group leader (a therapist who was a recovered bulimic), a nurse (not bulimic), and five bulimic women, including myself.
One of the messed-up things you may find yourself doing in an eating disorder support group is comparing your weight against the other members'. Other than the nurse, I noted that I was the least thin person there. Half-assed bulimics like me often don't lose much weight, unlike anorexics and anorexic-bulimics. To the casual bulimic, anorexics are paragons of self-control. Anorexics can resist food -- sweet, sweet food. Bulimics, those type B's of the eating disorder world, want to have their cake and eat it too and then sometimes manage to barf it up.
The nurse usually, inexplicably had a bag of M&Ms visibly peeking out her pocket. This only served as reminder that I was hungry and caused me to ask myself --
would it be wrong to bring junk food to an eating disorder group therapy meeting?
I would spend whole meetings fantasizing about inhaling a large bag of Cool Ranch Doritos in front of the group. This led to other, screwy "deal-with-it-through-humor" reveries: like a charity pie-eating contest and bake sale to raise bulimia awareness, and for the anorexics, a walk-a-thon. These thoughts, while hilarious, were immediately followed by huge bouts of guilt. Even more so than food, people with eating disorders binge on guilt.
I was also the only one in the group who was not regularly practicing binge and purge behavior. I was what is called a "resilient bulimic," which is slightly more professional sounding than my "sorta."
I was still binging and would have seven purge relapses over the next five years. But at the time, I only felt "less bulimic" than the other four women. I felt like an intruder. These women were hardcore -- I was simply a dabbler who thought horrible, funny things about pie-eating contests. Like a lot of bulimics in recovery, I believed I didn't deserve treatment, because for me, bulimia was a hobby, and these women were pros.
As the sessions continued and I listened to the stories and struggles of these four women, I began to play down my own story and struggle as much as I possibly could. I actually felt guilty that I wasn't going home after group and vomiting like some of these women admitted they had. When I spoke, I sounded more like our therapist than someone in therapy, giving advice on how I "cured" myself. I avoiding being too honest, self-conscious that my issues weren't as severe as those of the other women.
It didn't help that the nurse would try to chime in with her own "struggles." Once, after one woman had admitted to vomiting three times and doing two hours of aerobics as punishment for polishing off two chicken pot pies before her husband got home from work, the nurse "sympathized" by admitting, "I know how you feel, sometimes I buy Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and try just to eat just one, but I always eat both. It's so hard when they are so yummy." Uh. Thanks for sharing?
Group therapy should have been where I let down my armor but I couldn't. I felt like I was a fake who was there to get sympathy. I felt like we were actually comparing who was more messed up, and I was outclassed. I felt that being completely honest would just expose the fact that as a bulimic, I "wasn't that bad."
By session three, the group leader called me out on my issue minimization. "Giulia," she said, "you keep giving everyone else advice, and we still don't know much about why you're here."
Then I noticed the faces that surrounded me. Curious faces, compassionate faces, faces that wanted to hear about my struggle. These weren't women who wanted to compete with me -- they were ones who looked ready to listen. They looked relieved that I was one of them.
And so I shared.
I told them exactly what a crap bulimic I was.
When I finished, I felt hugely relieved. The therapist thanked me, and moved on to some official business. Due to some scheduling conflicts with the building, staring next week, group would be moved to Wednesday nights.
Everyone calmly nodded but me.
"Wait!" I said. "I have a class on Wednesdays."
"Oh, well can you switch it?" she asked.
I was halfway through the second session of a sketch comedy class. I had chosen the Wednesday night class so that I could have my Tuesday nights free for this group therapy shit.
Using the same "How dare you" tone I use for telemarketers when they call at 8 AM on Saturday, I growled, "No, I made a commitment to the class the same way I made a commitment to this group."
The therapist tried to calm me down, saying, "I understand your frustration, but there is nothing we can do."
By then I was crying. I had finally opened up to them, and now they were dumping me? It felt like group therapy was kicking me out of bed after sex.
"I just opened up, and now you are closing me out?" I wailed.
Then the nurse asked, "Giulia, why are you
I wanted to scream. I wanted to grab my folding chair and beat her until all those Reese's Peanut Butter Cups she had ever so naughtily eaten came flying out of her like a pinata. But instead my retort went something more like, "I don't know? Maybe I'm upset because I finally made some progress and now you're all just moving on without me?"
My therapist passed the tissue box to me and in her soothing, sympathetic tone, said, "OK, well we're all really sorry Giulia," then cheerfully announced to the rest of the group, "The rest of you, next Wednesday, same time, same place!"
Before I could absorb what had just happened, everyone got up to leave.
The following week I had to present a character monologue that I wrote to my comedy class. My teacher hated my character and performance. I wished I were back in my room full of sad, food-obsessed women and not in this room of sad, attention-obsessed comedians.
That night on my way home from class I stopped by Ralph's supermarket and bought a pint of Phish Food frozen yogurt. I ate the entire pint in the car on the ride home. I could almost hear the "Kate's Secret" music in the background.
As I parked my car at my apartment, I licked the pint cover clean, and looked in my rearview mirror to wipe the chocolate from the sides of my mouth. I shoved the empty carton in the plastic shopping bag and buried the evidence deep into the trash can in my garage. I went inside and breezed past my roommates, heading straight for my room. I got into bed and cried myself to sleep thinking, "Well, at least I didn't throw it up."
This is what some people call a moment of clarity. This may have been when I realized that no eating disorder is just a lame little one, and not all therapy groups are created equal.
I did need help, and I had to find the right kind. I got into individual therapy, and thankfully, out of the habit of eating and vomiting my feelings. And those comedy classes did eventually play their role: now, I tell my personal stories at stand-up performances and storytelling events. I've gotten over minimizing my issues and I've learned instead how to share them, learn from them, and laugh at them.
I wonder sometimes how my long-lost group therapy friends are doing, and I hope that things worked out for them as well as they have for me.
Not that I'm being competitive.

This is gonna be quick..rather than answer a Q on fb..might as well write in on here quickly where it'll be more accessible......if it sucks..shoot me.. I'm brutal at writing when I don't rush it or when I edit it...
Here's a video of a recent squat practice. I hadn't squatted in a while because of an injured back from deadlifting(serratus posterior inferior) and my knee had been acting up again trying to do volume training in the 80% 1RM range so this day I worked up to a heavy single(675) to see how it would feel and then I did 1 downset(635x3) followed by 5 'practice sets of 500x5 sets of 3 reps performed at a 4:1:1 tempo.
Why was I doing the tempo squat and why was I using that particular tempo?
Normally I like to do my explosive 25 minute "CAT Game" when I'm not lifting heavy but a couple factors said not to:
1) My back wasn't 100% yet so I didn't want any jerkiness at the bottom...GOing down slowly would eliminate this.
2) My knees have been acting up a bit since I did a lot of volume in the 80% range a couple weeks ago..so I'm not lifting heavy...and I cant lift too aggressively....what else can I do? And how can I get better with light weights...the only real option is to treat it as a practice.
TEMPO (Eccentric:Amortization:Concentric)
Normally(healthy), these phases are performed:
Eccentric: As fast as possible on the way down while still maintaining tension and technique
Amortization: ZERO, change directions as fast as possible without bouncing, and whilst maintain proper mechanics.
Concentric: Accelerate, aggressive, maximal effort...
Now...while squatting being a china cabinet pussy cat bitch...
ECCENTRIC: How else to practice going down perfectly than to do it slowly so that you can pay attention to micro aspects of the lift. I can pay attention to my posture(spinal alignment), torso angle, feel the tension in the quads and hamstrings, and pay more attention to where the weight is on my feet. When going down very slowly you can make the adjustments easily....like driving slowly. And you can feel the tension build. 3-5 seconds is what made most sense to me...3 seemed borderline short and 5 sounded miserable... so 4. This allows me to pay a lot of attention to my back issue by really focusing on perfect posture and amortization... and it also allows me to keep weight on my entire foot a little better and tension in my hamstrings.
AMORTIZATION: I have noticed that with my squat sometimes I rely too heavily on my quads and don't necessarily pay attention to my hamstring tension. Even though I maintain my pelvis at the bottom I often tend to 'bounce' out when it gets heavy or I get lazy. The pause eliminates this. The beauty with the pause squat is that the second you try to stand up, you immediately know whether or not you maintained tension everywhere...its instant feedback...you either stand up nicely or you body has to re-engage muscles to find tension and you tidal wave yourself to the top. I don't train the pause very often but i definitely see value in it. If I were doing straight pause squats I would be perfomring them at a normal decent pace and pausing for 2-3 seconds. Since I am descending at a 4 count to practice control and tension building, a 2-3 second pause, might make me pass out... I really just needed to address the things above which a 'full stop' or 1 count would address.
CONCENTRIC: Unless bodybuilding, I can't think of a reason to not stand up as fast as possible.
Hope that helped... I know its not scientific..but i'm working around bullshit injuries.
*** I have to mention that:
1) This is not something I do often...
2) IMO doing these too often can mess up your TIMING....and TIMING IS VERY IMPORTANT.

NEWARK—With swine flu and seasonal flu on the rise last year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is recommending that everyone ages 6 months of age and older get vaccinated early this year.
Last flu season (2009-2010) saw the emergence of the 2009 H1N1 influenza virus (previously called "novel H1N1" or "swine flu"). While not certain, the CDC reports that it is likely that 2009 H1N1 viruses will continue to spread along with seasonal viruses in the U.S. during the 2010-2011 flu season.
The 2010-2011 flu vaccine will protect against three different flu viruses: an H3N2 virus, an influenza B virus and the H1N1 virus that caused so much illness last season, the CDC reports.
Most Americans have had some experience with seasonal flu, a respiratory illness that strikes annually. Seasonal flu is not a benign illness — it kills about 36,000 and hospitalizes over 200,000 people in the United States every year. It poses an important threat to the unvaccinated, especially young children.
"Children are inherently more at risk because they congregate in groups," reports Maria Espiritu-Fuller, M.D.MPH, Director of Infection Control at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center and Director of Pediatric Infectious Diseases at Children's Hospital of New Jersey. "Influenza in children of all ages can cause severe infections leading to missed school, doctor visits and hospitalizations. Hospitalization rates for preschoolers are similar to the hospitalization rates among high-risk adults."
Flu Prevention
Federal health officials have expanded the age range for recommended seasonal flu vaccination of children. The CDC recommends that everyone 6 months of age and older get a seasonal flu vaccine. Vaccination is especially important for children younger than 5 years of age and children of any age with a long-term health condition like asthma, diabetes and heart disease. These children are at higher risk of serious flu complications if they get the flu.
Children younger than two years old are more likely than older children to be hospitalized with serious complications if they become ill with influenza. These can include pneumonia, dehydration, and other bacterial infections. In some cases, complications can lead to death. Each year in the U.S., there are more than 20,000 children age five and younger hospitalized due to flu.
Limiting the Spread of Flu
Studies have indicated that school children are the population group most responsible for transmission of contagious respiratory viruses. They have a high attack rate of influenza infection because they have limited pre-existing immunity and once infected, transmit influenza viruses to many others even before they have symptoms.
Children gather in groups– in school, in daycare settings, on playgrounds — and often are unintentionally careless when it comes to their personal hygiene. While it is challenging to teach very young children to cover their mouths when they sneeze or cough and to wash their hands frequently, these efforts are the best method preventing transmission of germs, the CDC reports.

Topic: Road Trip in 2016 - Earth Restoration Project (Read 3489 times)
Hello everyone,
Here are my sketches for this competition
A little background story
The already stable, advanced civilization recently built by humans on Mars, most of the Humans left Earth for Mars, at the time there are no way to fix the broken Earth back into a hospitable environment. In the span of 20 years beginning from year 2080 there are only hundreds of Humans left on Earth, mostly scientists and engineers with one purpose, fixing the broken Earth and try to bring back balance in the Earth ecosystem.
Earth severely broken in many aspects because of excessive mining and chemical contamination. The mega earthquake in 2030 almost brought Human to extinction, the earthquake is so massive enough to cause new small continents arise from the bottom of the sea while some bigger parts of the existing continent sunk, fossil fuel leaking and fill the seas, almost nothing left. Humans begin to rely on wind, solar and batteries for the source of energy and the mining plus production for better batteries had caused much severe environment imbalance. Into Mars, Humans must go and it means more mineral mining to built Human civilization on Mars, Earth is dying.
The year is 2016, a new experimental vehicle was built in Mars to aid scientists and engineers on Earth with the mission bringing back Earth into a hospitable environment before sending the Ark project into the Earth orbit to deploy a living, preserved flora and fauna back into their mother Earth.
Earth is broken because of earthquake and mining
Humans on Mars wants to restore the Earth.

Bianchi San Jose Frameset Review
About a year ago a pair of Bianchi San Jose framesets fell off a truck, and both Brad and Jeff ended up with a new bike-building project on their hands.
The San Jose is a TIG welded, 100% chromoly steel frame and fork. While it's not as popular as Bianchi's Pista, the San Jose is a well loved bike. If you ask anybody who owns one they'll more than likely regale you with tales of how durable it is and how nice it rides.
For a $399 frameset (frame, fork and headset) you would be hard pressed to find fault with the finish quality. The welds are clean and the paintjob flawless—a testament to state of the art Taiwanese manufacturing.
Designed with versatility in mind, the San Jose has a shoulder-friendly flattened top tube with top-mount cable routing and clearance for at least 35 mm tires, yet it's also ready to accept a rack and fenders like a good commuter bike should.
While the San Jose could be used as a cyclocross racing bike, most serious racers would likely consider any off-the-shelf chromoly frame too heavy. The geometry is an even bigger factor, as the seat tube angle is similar to that of a touring bike. While this promotes an upright riding position that puts less pressure on the rider's hands, the tradeoff is less power transferred to the pedals. The bottom bracket is higher than that of a typical road bike, but lower than a typical cyclocross bike. A lower bottom bracket generally equates to increased stability, while a taller bottom bracket allows you to pedal through corners or hop logs with less chance of getting hung up.
Ultimately, the great thing about the San Jose frameset is that it can be built up to suit a variety of riders with different needs and riding styles. Let's take a look at how two different cyclists built theirs.
Brad's Build
Less-than-racy cyclocross bikes tend to make great city bikes, and that's exactly the route I went down with my San Jose. The 59 cm weighs in with a 5.5 lb frame and 2.6 lb fork more suited to the daily grind than more svelte road and track frames, with clearance for the large volume road tires and fenders that I prefer for all-weather riding. I avoid referring to "standards" with bicycles as with each passing day the water becomes murkier with proprietary components, but the San Jose uses just about the most readily available choices out there, making it an easy task to build up with parts you may have on hand, and without breaking the bank. Having worked in the bike industry since my high school days I've managed to acquire quite the collection of spare parts in my basement and built my San Jose up accordingly, using a mix of road and mountain parts stashed away for such an occasion. The only hitch in the build up came with the 130 mm rear spacing—good luck finding a 130 mm spaced single speed hub, I used a couple of spacers to split the difference with a 120 mm track hub and called it a day.
After a solid year of use as my around-town transportation and grocery getter, I have nothing but praise for the San Jose. Everyone says it and it still rings true, there is nothing like the ride of steel. The handling is predictable, the ride comfortable. With my well used CETMA rack up front I'm able to carry boxes to the Post Office by day and cases of beer to friend's houses by night, and all in style. Though it's not the first feature to stand out, the flattened top tube is a nice bonus for taking the bike in and out of the house, up and down stairs. I'm a fan of versatile bikes, and as long as single speed is your flavor of choice and you're not too picky about the scale, the San Jose fits the bill.
Jeff's Build
I had been thinking about building a single speed cyclocross bike for some time. Coming from a mountain bike background, even when I'm out riding a skinny tire road bike in the city, I typically can't resist the call of the wild—shortcuts through the park, gravel paths beside railroad tracks, etc. And while I've had my share of cyclocross style bikes, the simplicity of a single speed was all the more appealing.
After initially trying a flat bar, I decided to go with a nice, wide, Truvativ riser bar. I chose Surly mountain bike cranks because I wanted to stick with a relatively small chainring for clearance. And with knobby cyclocross tires, my destination would ultimately be the woods, so having a tall gear for the road was secondary to having a low gear for soft dirt and steep hills.
The only major adjustment to my initial build was the addition of a Paul seatpost with 26 mm of setback. Even though the San Jose has a generous top tube length, I felt a bit cramped with a riser bar instead of a drop bar and thought a longer stem would put my riding position too far forward.
On trail, the bike performs exactly as I had hoped. It's totally capable of traversing the local mountain bike trails, but without a suspension fork and high-volume tires, even the relatively easy trails within the city limits remain interesting. Another side benefit to this particular build is that it's a good extreme conditions commuter. With its knobby tires and wide bars, snow and slop have been easy to tackle.

Sweet steel single speeds.
"good luck finding a 130 mm spaced single speed hub"
Just ask Surly, you know they've got it covered.
Built up a San Jose in 2006 to be my commuter. Installed a Shimano 8 internal (Borrowed the San Jos8 idea from Sheldon Brown) and never looked back. Touring, Sunday rides, and commuting. I have yet to find anything that rivals the adaptability of this set up.
You can't do drop bars with an internally geared hub. Instant fail.
These nice builds – thanks.
Dmitri – Do you run a gripshift on your SanJos8 or something else? How do you like it?
Grip shift on the bar end using a hacked stem. It is a great ride and reliable in the worst weather.
Does the frame accept 650b wheels?
Who makes the front brake cable hanger?
Does it take care of the squeaking that the cantilevers are so hated for?
You can get a 1×1 130mm road hub anywhere. Buy a generic threaded road wheel, mark the drive side spokes, disassemble the wheel, reassemble with the drive side spokes now on the opposite side (redishing the wheel in a major way!) . Swap the axle spacers, too, or replace them with axle nuts and washers to get the FW over to the right. True it up nice and tight, and run that freewheel on there. Now it will have a way better chain line.
re: Gripshift on drop bars. Find a piece of pipe or old handlebar that the shifter fits. Saw off a piece, drill for a through-bolt, wrap the stem or bar with a rubber shim, and mount to the stem or bar with a quality hose clamp, install shifter, and you're all set.
I set up my commuter San Jos8 with a bar end shifter by Jtek. I works perfectly with an in-line barrel adjuster. I have bumped it with my knee on steep, out of saddle climbs, but it is pointed down on such climbs so there really wasn't an issue. I've gone back to an older C-dale touring bike because at 220 lbs, the Bianchi had too much flex and would wobble at speed.
Nice builds. I bought my San Jose in 07, have ridden the ass off it since. Bought as a complete bike, promptly ditched the saddle, headset and brakes. Now run a Brooks B17, King headset, DT R585 rims on the house hubs, Shimano V brake on rear only, Easton riser bars on the house stem. Over 15,000 miles and it is the most comfortable bike I have ridden for commuting. Perfect for bombing around the streets of Detroit.

A few weeks ago, Steve was asked in one of his final sermons to address the issue of if we worship a God of love, why is there a hell? What follows is a slightly edited version of that message, with many thanks to Steve for allowing me to use it.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes and one-time resident of Stonehouse, once wrote, 'Hell.... has long dropped out of the thoughts of every reasonable man'.
Perhaps you agree with him. It was all very well in the Middle Ages, as a doctrine to scare people into behaving themselves, but in an age of reason hasn't the idea of hell and eternal punishment passed its use-by date?
After all, God is a God of love. And if He's a God of love, how can He send people to hell forever? 'For ever' is a very long time.
And shouldn't the punishment fit the crime?
Whatever crime a person may have committed in their short lifetime, punishment for ever is totally disproportionate. So one critic, John Hick claimed that hell is 'totally incompatible with the idea of God as infinite love'.
The discomfort with hell doesn't stop at the door of the church.
Most preachers... indeed most Christians ignore the doctrine of hell. I've not preached on it very much. I wonder if you've ever heard a sermon on it. Even hearing the word 'hell' from the pulpit makes us want to look at our shoes. We treat to hell the way the Victorians treated sex – an embarrassing family secret; a necessary evil.
One writer, provocatively, has said that perhaps we're ashamed of the doctrine of hell because we'd rather stand with sin than with Christ. We sympathize with sin and find the idea of hell an embarrassment.
So perhaps it comes as a surprise to realize that when our Saviour walked among us he talked more about hell than He did about heaven. In three of the gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke), He spends twice as much time warning us about hell as He does reassuring us of heaven.
Let's think about two popular ideas about hell. Then we'll think about God's warnings about hell, before ending by taking a look at what Jesus says in John chapter 3.
Here's the first popular idea about hell that we're going to think about:
1. 'God is a God of Love, not judgment'.
Like all one-liners, there's an element of truth in it. Wrath is not fundamental to God in the way love is.
God is a unity of Three Persons. Three Person eternally united in love. So in 1 John 4:8 John writes, God IS love. He doesn't write, 'God IS wrath'. From eternity past God's nature has been love. The Father loved His Son so much that He created everything as an inheritance for His Son. In love He created the human race to share in His, to be His children. Everything there is was created as an overflow of God's love.
John begins his gospel with these words:
All things were made through Him [Christ, the Word of God]; and without Him nothing was made that has been made. In Him was life, and that life was the light of men.
At the very beginning when Adam and Eve walked in the Garden with the Son of God He was our life. Without Him we'd be dead. He was the Light. Without Him we'd be in darkness. And yet in our first parents we turned away from the very One who is life and light.
We turned away from Life, thinking we'd find ourselves... but we found only death. We turned away from the Light, thinking we could see better on our own... but we found ourselves in lost in darkness.
And so the Son came to find us. Walking in the Garden, He came searching for our parents. And in His love He pronounced sin's death-penalty.
Because He loves us He won't allow us live forever exiled from Him in our guilt and shame. He won't allow sin to spoil His creation forever. God's love means His opposition to all that is wrong.
God's wrath is not natural to the Him in the way love is. His wrath is His righteous response to our sin. In Isaiah 28:21 He describes judgment as His 'strange work'. He takes no pleasure in it.
Hell was not a part of God's plan for us.
In Matthew 25 Jesus describes the final judgment, when He will separate the righteous from the unrighteous, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. Verse 34, Then the King will say to those on His right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world'. But to those on His left He says in verse 41, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels'.
To those who have been forgiven: 'Come, take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world'.
To those who refused to come to Christ for forgiveness: Depart, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
Popular culture mocks hell as a place where naughty pleasures can be enjoyed: where all restraints are removed and every appetite can be indulged. Some people think of hell as a place of total self-abandon. Nothing could be further from the truth. Jesus spoke about hell often. Jesus spoke about hell in the most horrific terms, as a place of everlasting punishment. Of burning fire and unimaginable suffering to body and soul. It is a place of physical suffering. It follows the resurrection of the dead. Everyone – Christians and non-Christians will be raised physically from the dead with eternal bodies . As the prophet Daniel says, Some will rise to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt (Daniel 12:2). It will be a place of wailing and angry gnashing of teeth, as those sent to hell for ever both realize their tragedy in rejecting Jesus Christ and yet continue to curse Him through their suffering.
Hell won't be full of sinners wanting to repent and get out. It's a place where those who are filthy are filthy still. It's a place where for eternity people are still justifying themselves, still nurturing self-righteousness, still hurting each other, still being selfish, still mocking Jesus Christ. An endless cycle of shame, and guilt and punishment.
Hell is not the devil's home. It's not where Satan will torment people for eternity. Hell is a place God has prepared for the devil and his angels where He will punish them and all who share in their rebellion. But the Lord takes no pleasure in it. 'Why will you die?' He asks Old Testament Israel. 'For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign Lord. Turn to me and live!' (Ezekiel 18:23).
He describes Himself as compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in love. It's not that He never gets angry. But wrath and judgment are His 'strange' work.
If sin didn't bother Him, He wouldn't be loving. He'd be a monster.
As a parent I love my children. And because I do, I hate whatever might harm them. I love my children and I hate what they do that harms them. I get angry with them sometimes because I love them.
Husbands and wives
should have a jealous love for each other. So that if a third party threatens their marriage the husband or wife should get angry with a righteous anger and be jealous for their partner because they love them.
There's nothing arbitrary or irrational about God's wrath, as there so often is with ours. God's wrath is always predictable, because it's His righteous response to sin. John Stott helpfully describes God's wrath as His 'steady, unrelenting... uncompromising antagonism to evil in all its forms and manifestations'.
They're not opposites: love and anger; or love and wrath; or love and hell. God's judgment is His loving response to all that is wrong.
.... So our first popular idea is that 'God is a God of love, not judgment'. But we've seen that it's precisely because He's a God of love that He judges sin.
Here's another: 'God hates the sin, but loves the sinner'.
2. God hates the sin, but loves the sinner'.
Is God angry with sin or with sinful people?
John 3:36 it says Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him.
Archbishop William Temple said, 'There is a shallow psychology which regards the sin as something merely separate from the sinner, which he can lay aside like a suit of clothes. My sin is the wrong direction of my will; and my will is just myself as far as I am active. If God hates the sin, what He hates is not an accretion attached to my real self; it is myself, as that self now exists'.
It would be incredible to say that God hates abuse, but feels no displeasure at all towards abusers. Or that He hates greed, but feels entirely neutral towards greedy people.
God is angry with sin, but He's also angry with sinners.
He is angry with sin and angry with us. And yet the good news of the gospel is that in His love God makes a way to save those who are under His judgment. He doesn't want anyone to go to hell. He is a God of love. And if some go to hell, it won't be because He hasn't loved them or warned them.
3. In love God Warns us of Hell
Let's turn from these two popular ideas about hell to God's warnings about hell.
Did you know, if you're not a Christian here tonight, God wants to frustrate your life?
He wants to make your life difficult. The Bible says He does that because He wants to warn you of hell.
He wants to make your life difficult. The Bible says He does that because He wants to warn you of hell.
We try to create heaven on earth every day, but all our little 'heavens' are all broken. We think that if we had a better job, or a higher income, or a nicer house, or a sunnier holiday, or relationship with that person.... then we'd be happy. Heaven on earth. But we can't make heaven on earth. Ever since our first parents turned away from the love and life of the Living God we've tried to make heaven on earth,
but our little heavens constantly fall short. They're broken. They disappoint us. Our little heavens all actually closer to little hells. And we blame everyone else. But it's God who's responsible. God knows we can't make heaven on earth without Him. He won't let us make heaven on earth without Him. The Bible says He has subjected the world to frustration. He's cursed it. Without Him we're spiritually dead. Hell lies in front of us, but we taste something of it now.
Romans chapter 1 verse 18 says that The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven right now.
It's not that His wrath will one day be revealed in judgment and in a place called hell – though that is true. His wrath is being revealed right now in this world.
It's not that our futures hang in the balance until Judgment Day when Christ announces the verdict. The verdict's already been passed. John 3:18. Whoever believes in Jesus is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.
The world is under God's judgment and every day in love He warns that we don't want to be face His judgment for ever. Every day in a thousand ways because He loves us He warns us, 'You do not want to go to hell'.
We've got so used to God's warnings that we think they're a natural part of the world. We're like Pharaoh in the book of Exodus, who hardened heart again and again to the warning plagues the LORD sent him that eventually he couldn't repent.
Earthquakes, wars, famines, disasters, diseases. We think, 'That's just the way it is'. We even call them 'natural disasters'. There's nothing natural about them. They're God's warnings. There's nothing natural about going to visit someone in hospital. Or attending a funeral. God never intended death to be part of His beautiful creation. He's warning us, 'You do not want to go to hell'.
God has frustrated marriage.
Marriage should be a taste of heaven, a picture of Christ's love for His Bride, the church. And in its best moments it is. But when each partner struggles to get their way it can be more like hell. The Lord Jesus has given it over to that. 'Your desire will be to be over your husband', He said to Eve in Gen. 3:16, 'and he will rule over you'. Every row a married couple has is a warning that we live in a world under God's curse.

Every row a married couple has is a warning that we live in a world under God's curse.
God has frustrated your work.
It's hard. It doesn't satisfy you. You're not fulfilled by it. You slave over it and wonder what the point of it is. You go to work tomorrow. And you look at the clock. And the afternoon seems to drag on forever...
Or perhaps you're not treated fairly at work. Others take advantage of you. We blame everyone else, but actually God's responsible. Do you remember His words to Adam in Genesis 3, 'By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return'. His judgment is a warning to us that we do not want to live under His curse forever.
Perhaps friends have turned on you. You feel you can't trust anyone. You've had painful separations. God doesn't want you to go to a place where it's like that forever. It will be place of eternal destruction, of punishment. Where shocking and unimaginable things will happen. He doesn't want you to spend eternity there, so He warns you in this life.
We don't have to wait for Judgment Day for God's judgment to begin. We're living in a world under God's wrath already. And every day He warns us, 'You do not want this to go on for ever'.
We've already thought about how we're not condemned to hell because of anything we've done, but because of who we are. We're children of Adam. The betrayal, the affair, the abortion, the abuse – our sins don't have the power to send us to hell. They're just the fruit of a condemned tree, the symptoms of my condemned condition. The reality is, on our own we're condemned already. It's not our doing, but our very being that is the problem.
And that means the solution doesn't lie in my doing, but in my very being. We need a new life; a new heart to love Him; a new birth from above.
God not only warns us against hell. But He has provided a Saviour.
4. The Good News
So let's finish in John chapter 3. A religious teacher comes to Jesus. Despite all his credentials Jesus tells him that unless he's born again from above he won't enter the Kingdom of God. Nicodemus doesn't understand, so Jesus reminds him of an event in the life of Old Testament Israel. John 3 verse 14, Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes in Him may have eternal life.
As Israel wandered through the wilderness on their way towards the Promised Land there was no food and no water and the people started grumbling against the LORD. The LORD sent venomous snakes among them and many were bitten and died.
Then the people came to Moses and asked him to pray that the LORD would take away His judgment. And the LORD told Moses to make a bronze snake and put it on a pole. Then whenever anyone was bitten by a snake all they had to do was look up at the snake on the pole and they would live.
Everyone who looked upwards – those who trusted God's salvation – were healed.
Jesus is God's solution. When He died on the cross all our sins were laid on Him. Every time we sin it was as if He said, 'I did that. I said that terrible lie. I harboured that murderous thought. I nursed that grievance. I committed that adultery'. He became sin for us. He took God's curse for us. He died under the judgment of God. He endured hell on the cross so that we might never have to.
All the Israelites had to do was look at the snake on the pole and they would live. All you need to do is look to Jesus lifted up on the cross, and you will have life.
Verse 16: For God so loved the world that He sent His one and only Son into the world that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.
You think, is it really for me?
Martin Luther once said, 'I thank God that it does not say "God so loved Martin Luther that He gave His one and only Son, that if Martin Luther believes in Him he should not perish but have eternal life." Because if it did, I should think it must refer to some other Martin Luther and not to me. But because it says 'whoever believes' I know it includes even the very worst of all the Martin Luthers that ever lived.'
How about you? Have you started the new Jesus offers? Sometimes it's dramatic. Very often it's not. I can't even name the date when I became a Christian believer. It was very gradual for me, probably over several years – slowly just waking up to what Jesus has done for me...
But whether our new birth is sudden or gradual, dramatic or quiet, the important thing is to have that new birth from above, to be born again into the new life that Jesus alone can give us.
Then we can say in the words of the song:
No guilt in life, no fear of death
This is the power of Christ in me.

The Program in Italian Studies is a modern, forward-looking program that has found a dignified place in the multicultural and interdisciplinary environment of the college, without losing its own identity and integrity. It has been supported by the notion that the relationship between Italy and its hitherto mostly European literary, cultural, linguistic-philosophical and historical contexts is a horizontal one. In this spirit, and as we cross the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, the Italian program has striven to offer the kinds of courses that reflect Italy as part of the mappa mundi and encourages and integrates course work in other languages and disciplines.Learn More
Linguistics is the study of language in all its manifestations. The various subfields of linguistics rely on close connections with other disciplines such as philosophy, psychology, sociology, anthropology, education, translation, and cognitive science.Learn More
The Honors Program in Philosophy provides the opportunity for qualified philosophy majors to undertake advanced research and to write a thesis on a specific philosopher or area of philosophy. This program is especially recommended for students who plan to pursue a graduate degree in philosophy, but it also provides excellent training in advanced research and writing for those qualified students who aspire to attend law school.Learn More

The Department of Political Science has developed an Honors Thesis Program to provide undergraduate students with research experience and skills that they will need in their future careers.Learn More
The mission of the Spanish Studies program in the Department of Languages, Linguistics, and Comparative Literature is to help students and faculty build bridges: Puentes across cultures; Puentes that span across ages from the past to the present and into the future; Puentes that cross oceans and borders.Learn More

The present government in the United States was established in the eighteenth century. Now, in the twenty-first century, it is time for reorganization of the federal government and improvements in the organization of our state, county, and local governments. The First Constitutional Congress established the Congress, the Office of the President, and the Supreme Court. Powers were granted to each of the three branches of the federal government. The organization of the state, county, and local governments was not mentioned in the Constitution. qSave Tax Dollarsq presents data pointing out the lack of proper organization of state and county governments that has added a very large amount of government overhead and resulted in inefficient use of taxpayer dollars. Federal, state, county, and local governments have not followed tenets used in the business world to establish efficiency and effectiveness. Why are you paying for excess government overhead? Are you satisfied with the current government organization? Are you ready for a change? qSave Tax Dollarsq provides data that supports reorganization of government to save you paying excessive tax dollars.Reduce Costs; Merge and Organize Governments Tom, the twenty-first century radical. school board.

Daddy Yankee Sued For Backing Out of Tour
Legal mess for Daddy Yankee!
TMZ reports that the urban music star bailed on 10-show concert tour in Argentina just TWO days before the first show!!
The concert promoter claims he paid Daddy $820,000 for a 6-show tour and later expanded the tour to 10 shows and both partied agreed that DY would be paid an extra 480 thousand dollars.
According to the claims, two days before the show, Yankee's team demanded the additional $480,000 be paid right there and then.
The promoter promised that he would give them the additional moneys when Daddy arrived to Argentina but Yankee decided to back out entirely two days before the show…even though he was already paid $820K for the first six shows!!
Now the concert organizer wants the money back plus damages!

Day 24: Give Experience Gifts
It's December 24, and if you haven't finished your Christmas shopping yet, you might be thinking about one final trip to the mall. And that means fighting traffic, finding a parking spot, and elbowing your way through the crowds.
But you have another option for those last-minute gifts. And it's something you can do from the comfort of your own home, which means you won't have to change out of your pajamas or your comfy polar-bear slippers.
Today's AoK is to consider giving one or two experience gifts to the people on your list. Experience gifts are things that don't come in a box, can't be picked up and shaken, and don't need to be returned when they're the wrong size. Instead, they're experiences that you and you loved one(s) can do together.
Here are a just few ideas for experience gifts:
- A romantic, home-cooked dinner for your wife or husband.
- A camping trip for the kids
- Spa or massage treatments
- A wine tasting tour
- A hot air balloon ride
- Gourmet cooking lessons
- A canoe or sailing trip
- Bungee jumping or skydiving
- Recreate your first date or the first time you met your spouse
If you really want to have fun with this idea, you could write your experience gift on a card and wrap it in a box so it looks like a more traditional present. And remember, your experience gift doesn't need to be expensive – some of the best ones don't cost anything at all. The idea is to give something that will create a lasting memory for you and your recipient, so focus on things that you can do together.
And have a very Merry Christmas!
Day 23: Turn On Your Kindness Radar
Just two more sleeps til Christmas… woot! We can hardly wait, but wait we must, and in the meantime, there are plenty of Acts of Kindness to do.
So far this month, we've asked you to call your mom, quit complaining, smile at strangers, and give your dog an extra long belly rub. And as great as those AoKs were, they were mostly planned in advance. But what happens when an opportunity for an unplanned Act of Kindness presents itself? Will you be ready to spring into action with a helping hand? Will you even notice? You will if your Kindness Radar is turned on!
What's a Kindness Radar, you ask? It's your ability to spot the opportunity for spontaneous Acts of Kindness throughout your day. Maybe you're at the supermarket when someone knocks over a pile of tuna cans. Instead of thinking to yourself "I'm glad that wasn't me!" and walking the other way, offer to help pick them up. If you notice a coworker struggling to meet a last-minute deadline, don't just go back to surfing the web – help them out instead. The trick is to keep your eyes and ears open to the many opportunities for AoKs that the world offers up on a daily basis. You'll be amazed at how many there are – if you're constantly on the lookout for them.
Day 22: Smile at Strangers
It's not that hard. Really. In fact, smiling is actually contagious. So here's what we want you to do: smile at everyone you see today. That means your friends, your neighbors, your kids, your parents, your dog, your cat, your bus driver, your boss, your employees, your rubber ducky, your friends, your enemies, your frenemies, the people that you meet when you're walking down the street, everybody. Yes, even strangers!
And to give you even more incentive to smile – as if you need any more incentive than the inherent satisfaction you will get by single-handedly bringing joy to thousands – we're going to award a very special prize to the person who writes the best story about their day of smiling at others. Tell us all about it in the comments section below, and we'll announce the winner within a couple of days. We really like heartwarming, touching stories, but embarrassing stories are particularly good!
Day 21: Quit Yer Complaining!
This coffee is awful! How long does it take to get some service around here? And what's the deal with this rain – it's making my feathers frizzy.
We all complain. It's natural. But guess what: nobody wants to hear it! So today's Act of Kindness is to save your fellow coworkers, friends, and family the eye-rolling by making a deliberate effort to not complain, even once, all day long.
Now, it's one thing to say "don't complain", but another thing to actually do it. So here's the secret to success: instead of thinking of what's wrong with your current predicament, ask yourself what's right about it. You'd be amazed how good you feel when you focus on the good things, instead of the bad things, in a given situation. And, even more importantly (since this is an AoK), you'd be amazed how good it will make the people around you feel, too!
Day 20: Tip the People Who Never Get Tips
We all tip our waiters, our cab drivers, and our hairstylists, and for good reason: they bring us food, take us places, and keep our feathers shiny and manageable. But for some reason, we usually leave out all sorts of people from the tipping process.
Today we're going to right that wrong, by extending tipping to those those people who work just as hard, but for reasons unknown to us, aren't "supposed" to get tips. Here are just a few left-out occupations you might consider tipping this holiday season:
-The garbage man
-The bag boy at the supermarket
-The FedEx guy
-The night janitor at your office
-Flight attendants
-Candlestick makers
As you can see, the list is practically endless. So be bold and tip your local beekeeper, lion tamer, or professional wrestler; they will love you forever! And if you have a good story when you're done, share it with us!
A friendly tip (ha, double meaning!) before you try this: we've done this ourselves recently, and to be honest, it can be bit awkward with some of the above people, depending on the situation. So you might want to try placing your tip in a Christmas card and enclosing it in an envelope that they can open later.
Day 19: Help the Helpers
They're out there every day in the cold and the snow, risking frostbite on the tips of their fingers, toes, and beaks. Through it all, the friendly Salvation Army volunteers ask nothing in return other than kind donations of people like you and me.
So today's Act of Kindness is to show appreciation to the tireless volunteers from all organizations who've been giving their time and energy to help others this Christmas season. Whether it's the Salvation Army or any other volunteer-based organization, there are a lot of ways you can show your support. Here are just a few:
-Bring a cup of coffee or hot chocolate to the Salvation Army guy on the street corner
-Take some cans of food down to your local food bank, and while you're there, bring a small gift or thank-you card to give to the volunteers
-Bring some doggie and kitty treats down to your local animal shelter, as well as some home-baked Christmas goodies for the volunteers
Got more ideas on how to show appreciation to our friendly neighborhood helpers? Share them below!
Day 18: Give Flowers
It's Sunday again, so we thought we'd give you another easy one. Today's Act of Kindness is simple: give flowers to someone you love.
It doesn't need to be over the top: a dozen red roses would be great, but that's way more than necessary. In fact, if you live in a part of the world that still has flowers in bloom, you might want to consider going out and picking them yourself. Remember, it's the thought that counts!
That's it. Really. Now go enjoy your Sunday already!
Day 17: Turn Lemons Into Lemonade
Ah, the joys of Christmas shopping. If you're like many people, you'll likely be spending part of this weekend fighting for a parking spot at the mall or bumping elbows with other shoppers in a mad rush to buy the last jar of cranberry sauce on the shelf. All of which can lead to a few hot tempers and bitter scowls – hardly the Christmas spirit!
But it doesn't have to be that way. Today's Act of Kindness is to spend the day turning those occasional moments of anger and frustration into moments of joy and happiness. It's easy, once you get the hang of it.
Did someone just cut you off on the drive to the mall? Brush it off and let someone else in front of you at the deli counter. Did the stressed-out checkout girl give you a frown? Don't take it personally! Instead, smile back at her and tell her she's doing a great job. Did someone slam the door on you with your hands full of shopping bags? Turn it around by holding the elevator for the next person. You'd be amazed how easy it is to turn a stressful situation into a moment of surprise joy for an unsuspecting stranger – and for yourself!
Luckily, there's a lot of opportunities to turn lemons into lemonade this season – if you're on the lookout for them.
Day 16: Post-It, Hide-It!
Here's another simple but really fun AoK.
1. Get yourself a pack of post-it notes.
2. Write down a thoughtful, touching message to someone you love – ideally someone you live with (wife, daughter, parent, etc).
3. Cleverly hide that note in a place where your loved-one will find it, but not right away! For example, you could place the following note to your wife on page 218 of the book she's currently reading:
Hi Beautiful!
I just thought page 218 would be a great place to tell you how much I love your smile.
Love, Your Snuggle Bunny
Now repeat the above as many times as your creative mind can handle, and for all the loved ones in your home. Here are a few more ideas:
-Inside your daughter's SAT study guide: "You're one smart cookie – I just know you'll do amazingly well on your test!"
-In your husband's tool box: "Thank you for all the little things you fix around the house!"
-At the bottom of your son's sock drawer: "I see you're out of socks! I knew this might happen, which is why I bought you some more. You can find them behind the sardines in the pantry"
Got some creative suggestions for the other AoK-ers? Share them below!
