Five Points On Christmas
And The Holiday Season
As The Majority of Americans Prepare To Take Time Off And Celebrate Whatever Holiday Fills Their Heart In December, Here Are Some Facts And Opinions About Our Celebrations
By John Guzzon
Modern Times Magazine
Dec. 21, 2016 — Snow, Santa, Jesus and presents.
Some may think that is all that is needed to have a great end of the year celebration in late December. But is that really what we all are celebrating?
The other bellwethers of the December holiday season are Hanukkah and Kwanzaa. Those two are fairly straightforward. Kwanzaa was started to give African Americans who didn't want an all-white holiday, something special during the season. And, Hannukah just might be the oldest still-performed religious holiday to take place in December (yes, sometimes it can be in November.
But Christmas is something altogether different than Kwanzaa or Hanukkah.
Its foundations have been lost to time, yet its traditions have much to do with the traditions it replaced. Thusly, the Five Points on Christmas and the Holiday Season begin.
1. The end of December has been a time for celebrations long before Hanukkah or Christmas.
The Saturnalia was a Roman pagan celebration held late in December. It might be the first recorded instance of humans recognizing the winter solstice. The festival included sacrifices of animals at the Temple of Saturn, a public banquet, private gift-giving, continual partying. Gambling was also permitted and masters reportedly served their slaves.
There is a bit of similarities there, eh?
Also, in ancient Persia, and like the Romans, sun-god Mithras was thought to be reborn around what we now know as Christmas.
One more thing we do know. Jesus of Nazareth was born in either spring or fall: Not December.
2. Is there anything to this Santa Claus guy anyway?
Well, yes. And no. We can say with most assuredness that someone does not enter through the chimney on Christmas morning — and no, he also cannot make a chimney appear regardless of what Tim Allen did in The Santa Clause.
But St. Nicholas did exist — In Turkey about 1500 years ago — and supposedly he did give money and gifts to children. One story even says he gave a man sacks of gold so he would not have to sell his daughters to a brothel.
Ohhhhkkkkaaaaay! Times certainly change.
Santa Claus as we in America know him, however, came from Sinterklaas and Father Christmas — mostly — from Scandinavia and England.
Then, of course, commercialism got him in the 1950s and abracadabra, here is Santa Claus.
3. How much do we Americans spend every year on presents/gifts?
The quick answer is $650 million. But the longer answer reveals that retail businesses make about 20 percent of their annual revenue during this period.
That means the holiday season brings in nearly triple what retailers bring in most months. Also, the average individual spends $700 on holiday gifts each year.
Retail sales in the U.S. is about $3 trillion annually.
4. How much do we Americans give to charities during the holiday season?
So, Americans spend a lot on gifts and stuff during the holiday season. The same must be said for U.S. gifts to charities during the holiday season, right? Yes ... and no. Charities generate about 20 percent of their annual revenue during the holidays: just like retailers, but the numbers are much smaller.
Yearly giving to charities is about $364 million from individuals, corporations and other means. Individuals donate about $260 million each year to charities. But they get nearly $50 million during the holiday season.
5. Is Dickens' A Christmas Carol Still Incredibly Relevant?
In the opinion of this commenter, heck yes. How can that be possible for a work created in 1843? Well, there are many factors: greed, blind devotion and glorification of business. But don't listen to me. Read these quotes and watch one of the many films this week.
"He was wise enough to know that nothing ever happened on this globe, for good, at which some people did not have their fill of laughter in the outset" ― Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol
"Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, benevolence, were all my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!" ― A Christmas Carol
"It is required of every man that the spirit within him should walk abroad among his fellow men! If it goes not forth in life, it is condemned to do so after death! It is doomed to wander through the world! Oh, woe is me! And witness what it cannot share but MIGHT HAVE SHARED on Earth and turned to happiness!" -- Jacob Marley, A Christmas Carol
"[Scrooge] went to church, and walked about the streets, and watched the people hurrying to and fro, and patted the children on the head, and questioned beggars, and looked down into the kitchens of houses, and up to the windows; and found that everything could yield him pleasure. He had never dreamed that any walk — that anything — could give him so much happiness." ― Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol
Dietary Restructure A family man decides to get a consultation from a nutritionist. But when he realizes that losing weight will mean cutting out food items like cheddar fries, he obfuscates: all in good taste, of course.

Meet superstar Zoe.
This girl doesn't know how to slow down.
You can't tell, but she spent her day hustling in a basketball tournament before we started shooting pictures, and then she had to leave straight for work. She's talented, smart (good luck in your future engineering career!), and beautiful. Enjoy some of my favorite photos!

Mary Aviles is a strategist, a cross pollinator, and an entrepreneur, obsessed with helping you better understand HOW to serve WHO you serve.
Together with partner, Bauman Research & Consulting, we sought to apply an online digital qualitative platform to study women through the lens of the Chief Health & Wellness Officer in their homes. Using creative activities, imagery and video, participants were encouraged to transfer attributes of ideal customer experiences with brands whose service they most admired onto their typical healthcare experience.
Our research objectives were to:
1. Find out what healthcare providers do the best and the poorest compared to leading service providers like Apple, Nordstrom, Jet Blue, Ritz Carlton, etc.
2. Gain actionable insights by engaging the emotions of this invaluable decision maker utilizing in-the-moment research activities conducted on the FocusVision Revelation mobile and web platforms.
3. Conduct our analysis within the specific framework of these metaphors and develop a deliverable in the same story-telling vein as the collection process.
Findings included pragmatic, primary research-based insights with implications on operations, capital expenditures, patient services, amenities, marketing, communication, and more. We obtained specific examples of how participants were able to transfer excellence in non-healthcare customer experience onto their healthcare experiences in order to activate emotional responses.
We gained expertise on an emerging technology platform, including why the use of a framework is so important for digital qual projects.
We leveraged the work for thought leadership, presenting the findings at:
Our findings were featured in a Franklin Street webinar and article (Today's Patient: Are You Ready For Her?) and we co-presented the study in a FocusVision webinar with Revelation Founder, Steve August.

There are many brands of food that have non-dairy items & I'm sure that there are more out there that I have yet to discover.
First up is Tofutti. I use both the sour cream & cream cheese. I find that the cream cheese, especially is good. No, it doesn't taste like dairy cream cheese, however, the consistence is similar. I especially like this brands cream cheese for cheese cake, cheese balls & any other recipe that calls for cream cheese. I've used the sour cream just a few times & it is especially yummy with chili & homemade burritos. So creamy!
This brand does have soy in it so for those that are not able to have soy, this brand will have to be avoided. I personally, not due to allergies, stay away from soy as much as possible due to the controversy over soy & women's health. However, I when I do have something with soy, it's Tofutti.
Amy's Kitchen
This brand is a vegetarian/vegan food brand & if you try the vegan items, they will be dairy free. You do need to watch since the vegetarian foods do have cheese and/or milk in them. I especially like the black bean burritos. I like to keep them stocked in my freezer for an easy meal – I don't even miss the cheese.
King David (vegan, found on Amazon)
They've chips – chocolate, white, butterscotch, caramel
I've the white chips, I've only used them with the peppermint bark last year – they were a bit interesting to melt – definitely different from standard white chocolate chips, but they worked fine & tasted delicious. I found these on Amazon & they came 4 in a case – I'm still working on finding other recipes to use them in.
I'm planning on purchasing & trying the butterscotch & caramel chips next (& quite possibly, eating by the handful…).
They have dairy-free caramel that is amazing. The golden vanilla caramel is yummy, but the sea salt chocolate caramels by far are my favorite. All of their caramels just melt in your mouth…so amazing!
In addition to the candy, AvenueSweets also offer caramel sauce (including the sea salt chocolate & sea salt), various Brittles (Cashew, Pecan & Peanut).
I found AvenueSweets on Amazon.
Cocomels by JJ's Sweets
Delicious non-dairy coconut milk based caramels & chocolate bars. I've not had a chance to try the bars yet, but their caramels are very yummy. You can find them on Amazon & on their website as well (click link above),
Some other brands that I'm planning on trying:
Premium Chocolatiers (offers various vegan/non-dairy options, including no no's [m&m's – plain & peanut], peanut butter cups, caramel nougat bars & milkless chocolate bars [milk (as in picture), dark & white].
What other brands have you tried? Comment & let me know.

Mystery Ice Crashes into Iowa Woman's Home
A mysterious 50-pound block of ice crashed through the roof of Jan Kenkel's house Thursday morning. Michele Norris talks with the Dubuque, Iowa, resident.
MICHELE NORRIS, host:
We don't usually bring you stories about dangerous ice this time of the year, but a story about falling ice in Dubuque, Iowa, caught our attention. Imagine this: Jan Kenkel was standing at her kitchen counter yesterday morning following her usual routine - making some coffee, preparing to go to daily mass - when she heard a tremendous noise in the other room.
Ms. JAN KENKEL (Resident, Dubuque, Iowa): But I didn't know if it was an explosion or a bomb. It just was so loud. And then - or a grenade, you know, how they are boom?
NORRIS: She peered through a doorway and looked into her TV room.
Ms. KENKEL: I was afraid to step in to that room because I thought maybe if there's another explosion or bomb goes off, I could get killed. So I thought what should I do? I just kind of got my senses together. After I got in further, when all the noise is quiet, I got in and look right up to the sky, sure.
NORRIS: She had a whole in her roof and a big mess on her floor. She wanted to call her sons to figure out what to do, but it was early. And she didn't much like that mess on her floor.
Ms. KENKEL: And I thought, well, I'll pick this debris up because if they come, I don't want them tromping through it, you know. So I went and got a garbage can and I picked up a scoop - I had a scoop in the shed. Scooped everything -it was real heavy. And I thought there's something in it, so I naturally got in there. I found a big chunk of ice full of insulation. It didn't even look like ice. It looked like a ball of fuzz.
NORRIS: And in the center of that ball of fuss - ice. A big old ball of ice about 50 pounds, she says. Understandably, Jan Kenkel was shaken.
Ms. KENKEL: I didn't know what to do. I had to get - it was 5:30 in the morning. Do you have your wits together?
NORRIS: Well, not always. No.
Ms. KENKEL: Well, that what I'd be. I just had to take a few moments…
NORRIS: And you were making a cup of coffee had - you probably hadn't even had your morning coffee yet.
Ms. KENKEL: I hadn't had anything. I just got out of bed and was getting ready to go to church.
NORRIS: Now it's been more than 24 hours since this happened. Have you figured out this mystery? Do you have any idea where that ice came from?
Ms. KENKEL: Well, I don't because I'm no geologist or whatever, meteorologist or whatever. But they had a good article in the paper from the Telegraph explaining it made more sense than any, and my one son said too, it could be ice that fell off the plane because it wasn't blue, you know. So I don't know.
NORRIS: Now in the paper there - in the Telegraph Herald, the local paper there in Dubuque, they said that that this could be - let me see if I get this word right, a megacryometeor, is what they're saying.
Ms. KENKEL: I meant - days from now, there might be more on this deal, maybe they'll figure out what it was. Should I get this ice analyze that it might be toxic or something?
NORRIS: Well, a professor of geology and geography was again quoted in a local paper out there in Dubuque said that it's sort of like a large piece of hail, almost.
Ms. KENKEL: Yeah, yeah. Well that made sense to me. I don't know how can you - something like this you don't hear often. How do you know - how can you say what it is? I mean, you don't even know where it comes from. And that sounded the most logic to me.
NORRIS: So did someone come and take the ice? Did someone examining it?
Ms. KENKEL: No, it's in the freezer.
NORRIS: It's still in your freezer?
Ms. KENKEL: Well, I have to have it for the adjuster because I once thought he should see it.
NORRIS: Oh, the insurance adjuster?
Ms. KENKEL: Yeah, he's here now, and I should be really going.
NORRIS: Oh, oh. So he's waiting for you there. I was wondering, you know, this must one heck of an insurance claim. What are - how do you fill that out? What do you say?
Ms. KENKEL: I don't have any idea. He put the claim in it, that's all I know. It says natural disaster but - it ain't my fault. I didn't do it.
NORRIS: You've got an insurance claim to work out and sounds like there someone there waiting to talk to you.
Ms. KENKEL: Yeah.
NORRIS: So let me not hold you up anymore. Go take care of business, and thank you for taking time to talk to us.
Ms. KENKEL: You're very welcome, I'm sure. Thank you so much.
NORRIS: Thank you. That was Jan Kenkel. She was speaking to us from Dubuque, Iowa about a 50-pound block of ice that crashed to her roof on Thursday morning.

US Dollar Begins To Rise From Slump As Focus Shifts Back To European Debt

US Dollar Begins To Rise From Slump As Focus Shifts Back To European Debt

US Dollar Begins To Rise From Slump As Focus Shifts Back To European Debt
Last week's quantitative easing decision by the US Federal Reserve had pulled the Dollar down to its lowest levels since December 2009. The decision to pump 600 billion Dollars into the US economy has also caused a chorus of protest led by Germany and China as several countries claimed that the decision could fuel the global currency issue by making the Dollar weaker and causing other export-based nations to suffer. The US Dollar however has picked up from its lowest point last week as attention this week is shifting back to European sovereign debt issues. This follows the fact that the US quantitative easing decision is over and better than expected US data was revealed on Friday. The Euro has begun to suffer as Irish and Greek debt problems once more rear their ugly heads.
Pound Sterling – UK Markets
Friday's close saw £1 buying €1.1522, essentially leaving the currency unchanged over the course of the week (+0.08%). The Pound also strengthened against the Dollar in total by 1.7% last week, closing at $1.6228. In early European trading, Sterling has gained against the Euro. This follows a string of surprisingly positive UK data with producer price data that came out on Friday showing its fastest rise in six months. This will however mean that the Bank of England's quarterly inflation report on Wednesday will have to tackle this as Bank of England has tried to downplay any problems with inflation being too high. Other positive news has emerged from Rightmove PLC this morning who have reported a rise in the number of Britons planning to buy a home for the first time as falling house prices is beginning to push up demand.
US Dollar – US Markets
The US Dollar has pulled back from its lows against a basket of currencies after its recent sharp fall last week. The Dollar rallied on Friday on the back of job and unemployment figures which came in well above forecasts. Non-farm payrolls rose by 151,000 in October which is the first increase since May and nearly 90,000 above expectations. Although this suggests that the quantitative easing decision may have been a little too angressive and Federal Reserve Chairman, Ben Bernanke, has been forced to defend the decision, this positive US data is helping push market attention back to the problems in Europe. There is also no major US news until Wednesday so European news is likely to be the key influencer on currency movements at the start of this week.
Euro – European Markets
The Euro closed last week up against the Dollar yesterday at $1.4084, a rise of 1.6% over the previous week's close. Currently, the Euro has fallen back slightly in early European trading as the focus of currency markets now appears to be shifting back towards spiralling Greek and Irish bond yields. The visit of European Union Economic and Monetary Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn to Dublin today to look at Ireland's budget plan is fuelling fears about Ireland's struggle with the deficit. The prospect of further instability in Greece has also influenced the Euro. The Socialist PM, George Papandreou, had threatened to call a general election if his party suffered a heavy defeat in local elections. In the event, his party is leading in six of thirteen regions with the last too close to call. He has withdrawn the threat of an election, claiming that the Greek people have endorsed his moves to tackle the financial crisis. German trade balance data has been released this morning to reveal a widening in their surplus trade balance – although positive news for Germany specifically this reinforces the Eurozone problems with German strength at odds with struggling nations.
Other Currencies – Highlights
The Bank of Japan's latest policy decision has held interest rates at a steady range of zero to 0.1 percent and detailed some plans of Government bond purchasing to start this week. The British Prime Minister, David Cameron has embarked on a two day visit to China aimed at boosting trade between the two countries. The visit follows on from Cameron's trip to India in July which was also intended to boost bilateral trade.

Are you tempted to try body sugaring to remove that unwanted hair? Most people are tempted to believe the rumors they hear about body sugaring and its recent surge in popularity. We advertise it as a natural and healthy alternative to the usual body wax, but some of our clients aren't so sure. Have you fallen victim to some of these common myths about body sugaring?
I'm going to be so sticky after my session
This is perhaps the most common complaint we hear from new clients who have never been sugared. It makes sense that you would think your skin might be extraordinarily sticky after being coated with our sugar mixture. What people don't realize is that sugar is water-soluble and much easier to clean up than the traditional wax. You might be far stickier after a traditional waxing than you are after sugaring.
Sugaring is a new trend that doesn't work
Would it surprise you to learn that sugaring actually came from the ancient Egyptians? That's right. We're actually using a centuries-old recipe of sugar, lemon juice, and water that has been perfected to remove your hair efficiently and with less pain than waxing.
There's no way sugaring is sanitary
It's understandable why some clients feel like sugaring may not be clean, but we take great pride in offering a service that is safe and sanitary to our clients. Bacteria actually cannot thrive in the high sugar content found in the paste we make. Furthermore, we never double dip into the sugar jar. We change our gloves every time we have to go back for a little more sugar to avoid contaminating the jar.
I'm going to look like a werewolf when my hair grows back
Have you heard the myth that your hair grows back fuller and thicker after having it removed with sugaring? This is one of the most common myths that we hear from clients who initially object to sugaring. There's good news for those who are concerned about unsightly hair growth in the future. Shaving has more of a propensity to cause hair to grow back thicker in the future. In comparison, sugaring helps to dissolve your hair follicles over time and cause less hair growth in the long run.
Diabetes is going to keep me from sugaring
No, you won't actually get a sugar high from this experience. Unless you taste or ingest the sugar from our jar (not something we recommend), the glucose isn't going to affect your blood sugar levels. It's safe for everyone, even if you have a condition that causes concern for your blood sugar levels.
Body sugaring is an excellent way to remove unwanted hair for both men and women. It's time dispel these common myths that are holding you back from smoother and sexier skin. Bare Body Sugaring is proud to offer a gentle and natural hair removal. Won't you give us a call today to see how we can help improve your beauty routine?

Australia: 12 Apostles and Great Ocean Road – VIDEO
Imagine huge sandstone columns surrounded by strong waves. This is how 12 Apostles came to be and this is how they will perish one day. There are only 8 of them left now. The nineth collapsed in the year 2005. It is very likely new will arise in sandsone cliffs. Yet the count doesn't matter. Apostles, about 45 meters tall each, is a sight to see. Should you come here during the sundown or sunset, the vista gets even better. Moreover, you can pay here for a short helicopter scenic flight to see the apostles from a different angle. Also, you will see several sandstone arches and caves which may become sandstone towers on one day. The apostles.
The Great Ocean Road is an amazing, unforgettable experience. You are about to experience endless beaches, cliffs, lighthouses, and nature typical for this part of the Australia. Make a stop at Koala Cafe. Perhaps here you will spot some sleeping koala. Moreover, you can feed here famous Kakadu parrots. Right from your hand!
The entirety of Great Ocean Road is situated between the towns of Torquay and Allansford with the total lenght of 243 kilometers. You can make it in 3 days without breaking too much sweat. Should you have more time at your hands, you can set out to enjoy a trek which takes three days. Should you have more time, try some other of beautiful treks .
Should you be interested in making long walks, try Great Ocean Walk. It connects walk trails. The trail is 104 kilometers long and it will lead you to 12 Apostles.
Should you visit the Australian state of Victoria, Great Ocean Road and 12 Apostles are among the most popular tourist destinations there. I recommend you to see it. It is worth it.

Reformed Theology
There may have previously been a thread on this subject, but I don't find it high enough in the list to see it. Therefore, I will start a thread and let it take its course. The purpose of this topic is to provide a place other than the Study of the Gospel of John, where it has become a side issue with considerable activity. Unfortunately, it is off-track there, so here it is in the open forum. The purpose is to give a place to post items dealing with traditional Reformed Theology. Because CCEL comes out of the Reformed community, there are many books dealing with Reformed Theology and Preaching in the CCEL library. However, in keeping with the ecumenical effort of the founders and supporters of this site, there are also books in the CCEL library that disagree with Reformed Theology. Sooooo, let me remind all participants in this forum, "Keep it loving, or keep it at home."
Reformed Ramblings
I have been giving much thought to our discussions of Reformed Theology. Randy has eluded to its truly being a broad and rather complex topic encompassing so much more than the 5 Points of Calvinism or the conclusions of any single theologian. I could not agree more. However, I have decided to, in a rather rambling format, touch on a few of the concepts that have been mentioned in other posts in an effort to perhaps tie some loose ends together. Feel free to read as little or as much as you like depending on your time and interest. As always, I truly welcome corrections, expansions or opposing messages in response. I, too, still have far more questions than answers regarding the mind of God.
Calvinism vs Arminianism
From my perspective the 5 Points (the TULIP acronym) are the primary distinctive by which one identifies one's self as a Calvinist. These 5 points deal rather exclusively with the means by which God reckons the persons identified as the 'elect' to be justified (saved) eternally. This, of course, requires a doctrine of sovereign election. However, it is obvious on further examinations of Scripture that all Bible believing Christian musts have some sort of doctrine of election as it is clearly taught there, especially, I would say, in Romans. So predestination and election are not the exclusive domain of Calvinist (Reformed) believers. But we must define ourselves clearly as understandings obviously differ. Thus we must boil the issues down to exactly what means God employs to grant salvation to the elect. As has been pointed out by others, this specific issue was dealt with in early Protestantism at the Synod of Dortd (1618-19) held in the Netherlands, hosted by the Dutch Reformed Church but involved representative Protestants from 8 different nations.
Actually the Arminians (followers of Dutch theologian Jacob Arminius who had died a year or two earlier) 'fired the first shot' with their document called the Remonstrance in which they officially protested the doctrines founded by Calvin which the Dutch church affirmed as official doctrine. The Remonstrance consisted of 5 primary points which were directly contrary to the the prevailing doctrines of Calvinism. Calvin had died in 1564, thus the responses given in these hearings, termed the Counter-remonstrance, were composed by his followers. I will not, for the sake of space give specific details of the 5 points but anyone interested can certain look them up. The conclusions of the Synod was that the understandings of the Calvinists were biblically correct and those of Arminianists incorrect. Albeit Calvinism prevailed at the Synod, but those who followed Arminius' doctrines did not truly forsake them and Arminianism did not fade away but indeed continue to flourish on an international scale. I would say in retrospect it was merely a symbolic win for Calvinism. Thus the disagreement persists to this day with Arminianism now being the majority report within Protestantism.
Refinements in Calvinism that caused 'Calvinistic' and 'Reformed' to Differ
As has been also noted there have been in certain Reformed churches alterations in the original doctrines of Calvin. For example, Reformed Baptist churches, which began springing up in the mid 1600's affirm the doctrines of TULIP (or Calvinist soteriology, soteriology being the study of the nuts and bolts of justification and sanctification of sinners), however, Baptists reject baptism of infants and small children, and hold to the doctrine of 'believer's baptism only. In 1889 they wrote their own Baptist Confession of Faith to note their differences with Calvinism in that particular regard. Thus the term 'Reformed' in a church or denominational title does not tell one to what extent their doctrines agree totally with Calvin's. However, I think that when the term Reformed is used, one can reasonably expect that church professes to agree with Calvinist soteriology. There is also a rather popular designation by which many Christians identify their personal theology as 'Calminian', which to me equates to as a rather confused Christian, but then aren't we all in some way or other. So this paragraph is to point out the necessity of not placing too much emphasis on labels. They can be so misleading.
Reformed Christians Must Admit Mysteries
I will readily admit that the Reformed position brings up Mysteries that the Arminian does not have to deal with. A great example, I think, is to attempt to explain a passage such as 1 Timothy 2:3 'For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.' The obvious question for a Reformed guy like me is 'If God truly desires all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth, then why did He declare such a severe curse on all men that renders them so spiritually lifeless that He must perform a regenerating rebirth on them before they will even be able to understand respond to the truth? After all it was only one simple little act of disobedience; a mere peccadillo! If sovereign unconditional election is the only way to save a lost sinner, why does He not elect all? Wouldn't that be much more consistent with His desire?' Tough questions!! I begin my reasoning by asking myself is this Timothy passage contradictory to unconditional election or any of the other points of Calvinism? No, it is not contradictory. Obviously God has a 'greater desire' for His justice to be served than He does to save all. However, I consider it to be certain evidence that He takes no delight in the loss of any souls. Beyond that I have to say it is truly a mystery and 'I just don't have the complete answer'. Is that unjust of God not to give me an answer? No, it is not. But it certainly is frustrating that He does not. You can probably come up with other questions that are equally mysterious, but I challenge you to find one in Scripture that is clearly contradictory to the 5 Points of Calvinism. We simply must keep reminding ourselves of Deuteronomy 29:29 "The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law." Some of the things we desire most to have explained to us, God has reserved for Himself. I suspect we will have the answers in Heaven, or when we are glorified all of those questions just won't matter anymore.
I suppose that's enough rambling for now. Keep the discussion going though; this is good stuff. I am always seeking to grow in my understanding of the Reformed faith and I find this comes through receiving sound teaching or by being posed with tough questions with which I must wrestle. The former is much easier. 8)

In June of 2017 Champ Man (Agester) created a small tournament for his home clan Illegal Elements to see who the best of the best were. It was so much fun and so successful that it only felt right to expand it to the world. Over the next 3 months he began coding Clash Champs. On October 13th 2017 Clash Champs was born.
Originally Clash Champs focused on war stats from Clash of Clans for it's tournaments, but over the course of the year it has expanded to Trophy Racing, Champs Elite (our competitive team) and Recruiting.
Clash Champs elevates Clash of Clans to a whole new level by hosting Tournaments utilizing the Clash of Clan's data. For our war Tournaments, we use an advanced formula that auto adjusts a Player's score based upon the weight of a target with respect to their own weight.
Want to know more? Check out our how does it work page!
It would not be possible without a wonderful and productive Clash Champs Staff! Please stop by our discord to thank our wonderful staff members, that give up their time to give us a great competition, community friendly, and overall great place to Clash!

Models are so tempermental...
Pattern: Miller's Hat by Kirsten Kapur
Yarn: Dream in Color Classy in In Vino Veritas
This pattern was a joy! I loved every second of working on it.
It is a quick knit; however, I did have to go up a needle size for the herringbone section. There is no give with the herringbone and I am a tight knitter. Looking at other projects, I should have gone up a needle size for the body of the hat, too; however, as this has been called by Wee One, the fit is fine.
(As I have just soaked it and am drying it, I may have to revise the size statements. It appears to have grown...)
I anticipate making a couple more of these.

Coltrane's Sweater
Originally uploaded by Frith.
Looks simple enough, right?
Ha! This sweater started (about 3 weeks ago) as a variation on the placket sweater in "Last-Minute Knitted Gifts." I was just going to change the colors around, use a different yarn with a different gauge, change the hem, change the raglan sleeve decrease style, change the stitch around the neck and on the placket, and add a hood. Mind you, I didn't go to the trouble of actually planning this out. I just thought I'd use the 3-month sweater cast-on amount with my thicker yarn, but follow the length for the 12-month sweater, and just tinker with the other stuff as I went along.
This lack of planning first got me into trouble on the second sleeve. I sort of spaced out and forgot to do some increases to match the first sleeve. Fine, rip back. Then I forgot to start the stripe on the second sleeve. Again, rip back. All well and good, but when I got mid-way through the neck placket, things looked decidedly off. It turned out I had accidently followed the smaller size, and was therefore (supposedly) off by two stitches. But it looked like far more than a two-stitch error. I went online and found that the pattern in the book was so royally messed up that they were offering an entirely new corrected PDF for download.
The moment of truth: rip back and re-do the placket, or go with the off-centered look? Yeah, off-centered look all the way. I was already working that look with the stripes on only one sleeve, so why not?
Fine, but this should have caused me to rethink my hood concept. Off I went on my merry way, using "The Sweater Workshop" to figure out how to create a hood. And I was nearly done with the darned thing when the thought occured to me that there was no way for the hood to stay up. Had the placket been in the center, I could have started the hood close enough to it that it would have worked. But off-centered with my one button leaving the neck open? No way. So the hood had to go. Another day, another sweater.
Obviously I still have to weave in some ends, but the sweater is pretty much done and is now blocking.
At least the hood provided an opportunity for a little lesson yesterday. I was teaching someone how to knit, and when I do that, I always like to unravel something so that they can see how knitting is just loops inside of loops -- no great mystery and nothing to be afraid of.
I casted on for the back of my corset sweater (finally) I really should re-work flat patterns to be in the round more often. I hate feeling like I'm doing the same exact thing twice. But I want to wear this sweater, which won't happen without the darned back, of course.
This also means I should probably start another non-cotton project to relax my hands. The little feathery scarf thing isn't quite relaxing enough (yarn is too thin). I'll have to give this some thought. Hopefully my Knitpicks yarn will come soon, and I can start one of the little Scarf Style projects. I know many "serious" knitters look down on scarves. But I love to knit them and wear them.

Nike's Colin Kaepernick 'Icon Jersey' Sells Out After NFL Settlement Is Reached
Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick may remain without an NFL job, but Nike unveiled a new "Icon" jersey in his honor Wednesday.
Kaepernick announced the news on Twitter just days after he and Carolina Panthers safety Eric Reid reached a settlement with the NFL in their collusion grievances:
Colin Kaepernick @Kaepernick7
For those true to themselves on and off the field. Proudly, unapologetically and against all odds. This is only the beginning. #TrueTo7 https://t.co/lIzn4MNB77 @girlsclubny @JRFoundation @peaceplayers @PowerPlayNYC https://t.co/1sf4Nogs4g
Colin Kaepernick @Kaepernick7
LOVE. • • Thank you to friends and family who helped celebrate the preview of the Nike Jersey. Your support means the world to me. #Trueto7 • • Jersey available now. https://t.co/lIzn4MvZIx • • 📹: @DirectedByWayne @DjToneDef @REL https://t.co/lpGNXAAaF2
Nike's website describes the Kaepernick Icon jersey as "a celebration of those who seek truth in their communities, and those who remain true to themselves."
Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James sported the Icon jersey during the week of the Super Bowl in early February. The jerseys were available for purchase for $150 but have since sold out, per Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk.
Kaepernick has not been on an NFL roster since he opted out of the final year of his contract with the Niners following the 2016 season. In the months prior, he began protesting racial injustice and police violence by kneeling during the national anthem.
While he searched for another NFL opportunity, he remained a Nike athlete. The company then used Kaepernick for a campaign that sparked a heated reaction from those who have taken issue with the 31-year-old's protests in September:
Now, Nike is once again showing its support for Kaepernick.

Coming from the new world into the old, I notice the many things that have survived with the ages.
I imagine the people that have been here before us. Perhaps we don't have to catch our own fish or hunt deer to survive, but many traditions remind us of a time long past.
One such place is the "Alme" - dialect for common land, from the french "Allmende". These are plots at the outskirts of town, where that townspeople can lease to grow their vegetables.
I remember very old people on their bicycles with a pick and shovel over their shoulders on their way to the fields. Even today you can see people with a tiny trailer hitched to their bicycles transporting dirt or harvested potatoes.
Another thing that can still be seen is the craftsmanship of architectural details.
The amount of time that was put into the design of a door for example stands the test of time. This craftsmanship is getting lost all around the world. I do hope newer generations take an interest and make sure that the craft and pride that goes into creating something will not be lost.

How can I add more options to my pull down list under property manager? Like selecting materials in property manger... but I have a column that is for the finish of materials. Right now the options are gold, nickel, copper and black oxide (I added the black oxide as a default) But I dont know how to add other finishes....so I dont have to type it in each time.
Depends on whether you are working Managed or not. If you are working Managed, this is controlled by the data management system. If you are not, then you will be looking for the Propseed.txt file to populate all list boxes except for the Material property. In ST6, this should be in your Preferences folder.

FAUX CONES – behind the scenes
I may be operating a multi-functional social media agency, but visual content will always be the core of my business. Styling & photography wasn't something that I ever learned in school (I have a marketing degree from Virginia Tech). It wasn't related to my first job (writer), or my second job (social media specialist) in the advertising industry, but it was something that I began practicing every day and showcasing on Instagram. I styled photography without even really knowing what I was doing, as a way to sell Etsy prints and to express my creativity. Every day I tried new…Read More

Five Indian junior cagers selected for NBA clinicJune 24th, 2008 - 9:36 pm ICT by IANS
New Delhi, June 24 (IANS) Five Indian junior basketball players will get a life-time opportunity to learn nuances of the game from top American National Basketball Association (NBA) players, who will be in the country next week to participate in a training programme called 'Basketball without Borders'. Hirendera Singh Rathore, Shadab Khan, Pratham Singh, Arjun Singh and Vishesh Bhrigvansh are the five juniors selected from a group of 16 by national coach Alexander Bucan at Bhilwara.

Basketball Federation of India (BFI) secretary general Harish Sharma said that the five players will also represent India at the Asian Championship to be held in Iran from Aug 28-Sep 5.
"Keeping the Iran meet in mind, and their excellent skills and execution during the nationals, they were chosen to participate in the clinic in New Delhi," said Sharma.
"The clinic would help our boys' massively. Our coaches, including Bucan, will also be at hand to see how the boys are responding to the lessons taught to them," he said.

Fear of Dogs Hypnotherapy
Fear of Dogs Hypnotherapy: Dogs are commonly known as 'man's best friend'. Descriptors such as cute, cuddly and loyal are regularly used to describe our canine friends.
An Extremely Common Phobia
Fear of dogs Hypnotherapy, So why then is the fear of dogs (cynophobia) so common? Why do some people go weak at the knees and all loving at the sight of a pair of big brown eyes and a wet nose while others go into a state of panic?
No Explanation
Perhaps you don't even know why you are afraid; 'You just are'. Maybe you have a clear understanding and remember a specific incident – perhaps when you were little, a big dog jumped up on you in play, but knocked you over in the process and barking. Or maybe you were bitten by a dog or threatened by your parents not to go to a particular place as there was a dog. Whatever the reason, the one thing for certain is – there will be a reason whether you remember it or not. When you were born, you had only one fear of sudden loud noises. Every other phobia and fear is learned through our own or vicarious experiences.
Fear of dogs Hypnotherapy – You realise that you are irrational, but you feel powerless to do anything about it and believe you will always have to live with your fear. Having a dog phobia can be awkward and embarrassing. Having to turn down an invitation to a friend's house because they have a dog to taking a longer route home to avoid a dog in a garden are examples of how this fear may affect your life.
Going to the beach or the local park with family or friends can be a nightmare for you as you cannot relax, for fear of meeting or seeing a waggling tailed four-legged creature. If you are a parent, you dread explaining to your child why they can't have a dog even although all his friends do.
Fear of dogs Hypnotherapy -We have to remember it is common sense to have a respectful caution towards dogs. They do have sharp teeth, and they can bite, but usually only if you provoke them or threaten them. Some breeds are known to be more vicious and unpredictable than others with certain people trying to look threatening by having certain types of dogs and training them to be aggressive.
However, most domesticated dogs are loving and calm. They no longer have to fight for food as they are fed plenty by their loving owners.
With Hypnotherapy, I can quickly and efficiently and successfully help you to overcome your fear of dogs. During the hypnotherapy, I will induce a state of deep relaxation, allowing me to access your subconscious mind where there is no conscious resistance; I will give you strategies to overcome the fear.
What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a type of therapy that uses hypnosis, which is an altered state of consciousness. At no time during the session, are you in a trance. You are aware of your surroundings at all times.I will guide you into a very relaxed state of mind.
So that you can experience what it is like to be in the state of Hypnosis, I have included a free sample simply click here

Everything started on September 25th 2014 on the international trade fare for transport technology InnoTrans: Abellio Mitteldeutschland and krauth technology signed their contract. In June 2016, the project could be successfully completed with the overall acceptance. All in all, krauth technology supplied 128 new vending machines for the transportation network Saale-Thueringen-Suedharz and put them into live operation. Since the date the vending machines were officially put into operation, on 15th December 2015, customers have been profiting from the special operational concept with intuitively operable surfaces.
Christian Mueller from the abellio project team is happy that the target could be achieved within the set time-frame: "Together with krauth technology we developed a highly innovative, user-friendly ticket vending machine for our passengers. We are very glad that, together with our long partner krauth technology, abellio managed to enormously increase the quality of ticket vending in the network Saale-Thueringen-Suedharz.
For the provision of the ticket vending machines abellio was supported by TCAC GmbH in Dresden. Martin Haase, project manager at TCAC, remembers quite well the time the vending machines were put into operation: "At the beginning we had to face some teething troubles. Unfortunately this cannot be avoided in such a large project. However, thanks to the great commitment of all involved parties, the stable operation of the vending machines was realized quite fast, even if some weekend work became necessary.
Abdullah Sidaoui, project leader at krauth technology, is also highly satisfied with the way the project evolved: "We are very proud to have achieved the project target together with abellio, even though the time schedule was quite demanding. Moreover, a number of innovations could be realized. We look back on a challenging but very encouraging and innovative collaboration and do hope that this was not our last project together with abellio."
Krauth technology express warm thanks to abellio and TCAC for the constructive collaboration helping to respect the ambitious time schedule.

Automatic Role Detection in Online Forums
Alberto LUMBRERAS - Equipe SC - IRIT (France)
ENSEEIHT, salle A001
AbstractWe address the problem of detecting user roles in online discussion forums. A role may be defined as the set of behaviors characteristic of a person. In discussion forums, behaviors are primarily observed through conversations. Hence, we focus our attention on how users discuss. We propose three methods to detect groups of users with similar conversational behaviors.
Our first method for the detection of roles is based on conversational structures. We apply different notions of neighborhood for posts in tree graphs and compare the conversational patterns that they detect as well as the clusters of users with similar conversational patterns.
Our second method is based on stochastic models of growth for conversation threads. Building upon these models we propose a method to find groups of users that tend to reply to the same type of posts. We show that some groups of users (roles) with extreme behaviors have some predictive power, which allow us to make predictions of their future behaviors.
We finally present a "dual-view mixture model" that integrates the type of data used in the two previous methods (feature-based and behavioral or functional-based). The model exploits the idea that users with similar features have similar behaviors. We show that, when this is hypothesis holds, we can find clusters using fewer examples. Besides, the model is non-parametric and uses a Dirichlet Process prior to automatically assess the number of clusters.

Must-have Makeup Products for Winter
My favourite Makeup products this season!
This post is all about makeup appreciation! I love writing about the products I reach for every day, especially the ones I reach for to create more dramatic looks too. Trying to pick favourites is always hard for someone who loves makeup as much as me, it takes a whole lot of trying, testing, and wearing a full face of the wrong foundation for a day just to see if it's the one.
It can be so stressful in the search for the perfect product, but playing with products and creating new looks is all part of the fun. I'll always be modifying my everyday favourites list, I don't think it could ever be completely finalised!
Winter is a bit of a weird season for makeup. I definitely don't go out and socialise as much as in the Summer, so there aren't as many opportunities to create different looks every week! Skin can be dryer, aircon definitely affects me and I'm probably going to be eating a lot of pasta so my skin, in general, might not be in tip-top condition. These are products I've loved over last Winter, during Australian Summer, through 3 weeks of Japanese Winter in January and I've been wearing them all Autumn so far.
Eye Makeup Products:
STILA Eyes Are The Window Shadow Palette - Mind / $71
This is my number one favourite palette! I bought it late last year and I think I use it for almost every eyeshadow look! It's perfect for day to night look. I adore the burnt orange and the blendable nudes and matte browns.
The whole palette is very blendable, except for maybe the grey shadow. I find that all of the shades work well with each other, but my favourite shades are the central light brown shade, the burnt orange and the light pink/mauve on the left hand side.
Face of Australia Black Liquid Eyeliner / $8.95
I don't leave the house without winged eyeliner. I normally wing my liner from the middle of my lid outwards, my eyes look a little cross-eyed if I line the whole way along my lid. I love this liner because it's really good consistency and a fine line for a pretty cheap product!
The shade of black is always bold, it doesn't flake and it always lasts a whole day. I find that it only flakes if I apply eyeshadow after liner where I'm brushing over it constantly.
Covergirl Full Lash Bloom / $17.95 on sale for $12.56
I've used Covergirl mascaras since 2010 and I've recently switched to this one from the Lash Blast Volume Mascara. It doesn't clump very often at all! The bristles are plastic and always great for separating lashes. I normally keep a cleaned old brush to separate any lashes that do get stuck together.
For a volumised look I start from the base of my lashes, but if I am looking to lengthen my lashes I brush over the mid-lengths to ends of my lashes instead. The lashes seem lighter with this technique and stay curled up for longer.
Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow Pomade / $18 and MAC brow brush / $39
I use the Drip Brow Pomade in Taupe every day! It's lasted for so long that it dries easily but is easy to apply with a tiny bit of moisturiser. I love this product for both a bold brow or a really natural brow. My Mac brow brush definitely helps, the sharp edge makes all the difference.
Smashbox Photo Finish Primer / $52
This primer works perfectly with Estee Lauder Doublewear! It's super silky and I feel as though it fills pores and scars to create an even surface for a perfect foundation finish. My favourite thing about this primer is that it fills my fine smile lines that I used to be so conscious of! With this primer, my foundation lasts all day and doesn't dry out on my face even after a whole day at work.
Estee Lauder Doublewear / $54
Doublewear is still my favourite foundation, I write about it in my last every-day products post. I used to break out wearing it and only used it for a night time look or at festivals because it could literally last two days!
I'm the shade Cool Bone and I wear Tawny when I'm tanned. The only thing about this foundation is that I always need to wear primer and/or moisturiser. It doesn't work well on dry areas but it's still wearable. I don't need to wear concealer with this foundation which is the biggest bonus!
Australis Fresh & Flawless Pressed Powder / $12.95
The best powder foundation I've ever used. The pigmentation is so thick you could just use this as a foundation on a good skin day. I use this to secure my liquid foundations and as a base for applying powder contouring and highlighting.
It's also so good for touch ups during the day! It blends well and doesn't leave streaks or marks, honestly a lifesaver in my opinion.
Revlon Sculpt + Highlight Kit x Chloe Morello / $24.95
I've loved this since I used it for the very first time in 2016! I usually mix the contour and bronzer for a warmer tone. I love this in summer to create a bronzed glowing look.
Becca Highlighter in Moonstone / $48
This highlighter isn't as harsh as I always expected it to be. I wear this some mornings to work just for a bit of brightness on my cheekbones and under my brow arches. It's easy to layer and create a really bold look with, but I love it best as a light application, a simple dusting over.
Colorpop Supershock Highlighter in Lunch Money / $10.69
Now this is the highlighter I turn to when I want to shine like there's no tomorrow. I apply this with my fingers and only to the very highest points on my face. Sometimes I apply Lunch Money to the inner corners of my eyes to finish off a bold eye look.
Estee Lauder Set + Refresh, Perfecting Makeup Mist / $50
A spritz of this over my finished look is always perfectly refreshing and never ruins a look! I often use it a little while after finishing my makeup and after I've applied a setting spray. It is nice during the day as a refresher, but I don't often carry it with me unless I know I'm in for a long day!

Rebecca Romijn has revealed that her twin daughters are very different to each other.
The Ugly Betty star, who has 13-month old girls Charlie and Dolly with husband Jerry O'Connell, says that each of them takes after a different parent.
Romijn told People magazine: "Dolly looks exactly how I looked as a baby and Charlie looks exactly how Jerry looked as a baby.
"Charlie personality-wise doesn't take after anyone. She's really easy going and always smiling, doesn't cry very much. I don't think either of us are that easy going... I mean we're fun but we're not that easy going!"
Talking about doing a recent photoshoot with the children, the actress said: "I think Jerry was probably doing cartwheels behind the photographer trying to get them to calm down. Charlie was loving it - loving the lights, loving everyone standing around looking at her."

Currently, the existence of web hosting is indeed a mainstay for many people who do have a website on the internet. Because they can manage all the needs of their website there. It's just that they really need the right hosting service. If you are also included with them, then www.digitalserver.com.mx/certificados-ssl.shtml can be your choice.
One type of web hosting that you can also get is VPS hosting. VPS or Virtual Private Server is one type of web hosting that offers virtual servers for clients. And at the same time, the client can manage the server freely and according to their needs and desires. the virtualization concept of VPS is actually similar to shared hosting schemes where one web hosting allows me to fill in several websites. However, most hosting service providers dedicate VPS to use by one user only. That way, this type of web hosting can guarantee the resources available to clients by using a virtualization technology system.

Your Petitioner, William T.
Carroll of Washington
City by this his
petition in writing, represents and states, that he is a person loyal to the United States, who, at the time of the

vves of said John, Ellen and

Ellen and Henry were
discharged and freed of and from all claim of your petitioner to such service or

Henry were of the ages
of and of the personal descriptions
John Brooks was a man about forty
six years old, about five feet & nine & a half inches high, slender
person, dark brown color, bushy black hair slightly tinged with gray. He was
the very best waiter & dining room servant I ever saw & was worth to
me over $2000 and I believe i could readily have realised that amount for
That your petitioner acquired his claim to the aforesaid service or labor of said John, Ellen and Henry in manner following:(2) John Brooks was given to my wife Mrs Carroll by her Father in the spring of 1829. The Mother of Ellen & Henry Warren was purchased by me in the Summer of 1827 and was owned by me when they were born. John Ellen & Henry have been owned and possessed by me from the aforesaid date in the first case & from their birth in the last two to the rate of the aforesaid act of Congress.
That your petitioner's claim to the service or labor of said John, Ellen & Henry was, at the time of said discharge therefrom, of the value of three thousand five hundred dollars in money.(3) Your petitioner has stated in the previous page such qualities as rendered said servants of that value to him, and now avers that he has no knowledge of any infirmity or defect that rendered them of less value to him.
Your petitioner hereby declares that he bears true and faithful allegiance to the Government of the United States, and that he has not borne arms against the United States in the present rebellion, nor in any way given aid or comfort thereto.
And your petitioner further states and alleges, that he has not brought said
John, Ellen nor
into the District of Columbia since the passage of said act of Congress;

Ellen & Henry
were held to service or labor therein under and by
virtue of your petitioner's claim to such service or labor.
Your petitioner further states and alleges, that his said claim to the service or labor of said John Ellen Henry does not originate in or by virtue of any transfer heretofore made by any person who has in any manner aided or sustained the present rebellion against the Government of the United States.
And your petitioner prays the said Commissioners to investigate and determine the validity of his said claim to the service or labor of said John Ellen and Henry herein above set forth; and if the same be found to be valid, that they appraise and apportion the value of said claim in money, and report the same to the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, in conformity to the provisions of said act of Congress.
