Burr Coffee Grinders
Important considerations when choosing a burr coffee grinder for espresso...
Burr coffee grinders use either flat wheel or conical burrs.
Flat Wheel Burr Grinders
Flat wheel burrs are used on all qualities of grinders, from low price high-speed grinders up to commercial grade low-speed direct drive grinders. Low priced coffee grinders often use small diameter burrs. They produce a passable espresso grind, but dull very quickly and are frustrating to use.
Most top range grinders also use flat burrs. In this case they are usually 50mm in diameter or larger, constructed from very high grade metal and designed to grind efficiently over a long time.
Conical Burr Grinders
Conical burr grinders use a conical shaped grinding surface and produce a more consistent grind than flat wheel grinders. They also dissipate heat well.
Coffee grinders operate at either high or low speed.
High-speed Burr Grinders
High-speed burr grinders are the best choice if you are looking for an economical coffee grinder, but may be quite noisy and will create heat and static.
Low-speed Burr Grinders
Low-speed burr grinders are the best coffee grinders you can get. They are very quiet, produce very little heat and little or no static charge. Also, the motor does not clog up with fine grinds.
Low-speed burr grinders can be divided into two categories, direct drive and gear reduction.
- Direct drive grinders use high quality motors which spin very slowly, creating minimal heat or static and are whisper-quiet.
- Gear reduction grinders tend to be noisier than the direct drive style, but are less expensive.
Grind Adjustment
The grind can be adjusted either in preset steps or steplessly.
Stepped Adjustment Grinders
Stepped adjustment grinders are the most popular type of grind adjustment. They can be divided into two types, self holding and lever release.
- Self holding grinders adjust the grind by either turning the bean hopper or an adjustment knob.
- Lever release grinders adjust the fineness setting by pushing down a release lever and then turning the bean hopper.
Stepless Adjustment Grinders
Stepless adjustment grinders are not as popular as stepped adjustment models. The grind setting may be freely set which is useful if you are trying to fine-tune your grind for espresso and need to make minute adjustments.

St. Jude Medical's tiniest pacemaker is supposed to eliminate complications sometimes seen in older versions of the device. The Little Canada-based medical technology company called it one of the most important advances in heart-pacing technology after acquiring the technology in 2013.
Since then, St. Jude has twice halted implants of its Nanostim pacemaker in Europe, and the company is now examining a report that a patient had one of the devices break free and get stuck in the artery that leads to the lungs. That incident followed a letter sent to European doctors earlier this year disclosing statistics on eight other incidents in which the device came dislodged, including six in the United States.
The company says a small number of such events are to be expected. But physicians, and some stock analysts, are closely watching the safety profile of tiny novel pacemakers like the Nanostim in ongoing studies. Advanced versions of the pen-cap sized devices may one day revolutionize cardiac pacemaking, but only if they're at least as safe as traditional pacemakers.
"The trial is ongoing, so we will be getting more information. But everything I have seen would suggest that the leadless pacemaker meets that high bar as being as safe as a traditional pacemaker," said Dr. Paul Friedman, the Mayo Clinic principal investigator in St. Jude's ongoing national safety study. "In my heart of hearts, I wouldn't offer this to patients if I didn't think it was an important advance."
Last year, in the wake of the news that two early patients in the European Nanostim study died after implants, Friedman said the company narrowed the eligible study population there. Since then St. Jude has been rewriting its training manuals for European doctors while consulting with U.S. regulators about plans to seek full commercial approval from the Food and Drug Administration later this year, according to statements from the company and analysts.
"St. Jude Medical is confident in the safety profile of Nanostim," spokeswoman Kate Stoltenberg wrote in an e-mail. "We've analyzed data from our worldwide studies, and what we're seeing are outcomes that meet or exceed the current safety profiles of traditional pacemaker technologies."
Traditional pacemakers sit under the skin near the shoulder, requiring a chest incision to implant the device and its wires, called leads, that deliver low-power electric stimulation to fix a slow heart beat. While rare, the most common complications are infection in the pocket of tissue around the device, and leads moving out of place.
Attachment issues
The new pacemakers like Nanostim require neither a pocket nor leads. They're small enough to fit entirely inside the right ventricle of the heart, placed there using a long, thin tube guided into the heart from a small puncture in the groin.
Nanostim was the first device of its kind. St. Jude got approval to sell it in Europe in 2013, and did the first U.S. implant in February 2014 in the ongoing clinical trial. Stoltenberg said more than 700 devices have been implanted worldwide.
Medtronic PLC, which is based in Dublin, Ireland, but has its cardiac rhythm unit headquarters in Mounds View, earlier this year got European approval to sell an even smaller leadless pacemaker called the Micra. Medtronic has started a large-scale trial in the U.S.
Massachusetts-based Boston Scientific, whose cardiac-rhythm division is located in the Twin Cities, is developing a leadless pacemaker so new it doesn't yet have a name.
Since the device sits inside the heart, attention has focused on the best ways to securely attach the devices without damaging the heart tissue. St. Jude's device screws into the tissue, while Medtronic's uses flexible metal hooks called tines for fixation. Boston Scientific executives said their design makes use of tines as well.
Halting implants
In the first four months of 2014, St. Jude analyzed 147 patients as part of a post-approval follow-up study and found six cases in which the device appeared to perforate small holes in the patients' heart muscles or cause fluid buildup, and two more cases in which the device came dislodged, according to data in a European "Dear Doctor" letter dated Feb. 20, 2015, which was obtained by the Star Tribune.
According to a research note from Glenn Novarro at RBC Capital Markets, St. Jude executives said the deaths were related to physicians' implant techniques and patient-selection criteria, not flaws with the device. The European study was restarted in June 2014, and as of January had seen two more incidents of swelling at the attachment site, but no further dislodgments.
However, the European study was halted a second time, and will not restart without approval from regulators there. The February letter to European doctors said the pause was declared "as a precautionary matter" to evaluate new cases of abnormal fluid buildup, known as pericardial effusion, in the tissue surrounding the heart.
The same letter disclosed "serious adverse device effects" in the ongoing U.S. trial: five incidents of perforation or effusion, and six cases of dislodgment, among a study population of 322 patients. Those data only include events through January. A company spokeswoman said newer data is not available.
"Perforations and dislodgments are anticipated adverse events with traditional pacemakers as well as the Nanostim leadless pacemaker," St. Jude's Stoltenberg wrote. "The perforation and dislodgment rates for Nanostim are in-line with rates reported in literature from traditional pacemaker technologies."
Premature conclusions
The Mayo's Dr. Friedman cautioned against drawing conclusions about safety from early reports. For example, he was told that one of the European patients who died had two other procedures the week before — confounding factors that would have eliminated that person from eligibility in any of the 56 U.S. hospitals in the study, and would now exclude that person under the revamped criteria overseas.
On March 26, an unidentified hospital reported to the Food and Drug Administration that a Nanostim dislodged and got stuck in the patient's pulmonary artery. After initial attempts to fish it out failed, the patient was admitted to intensive care and had a successful procedure to remove it the next day, according to the public adverse-event report on file with the FDA. The report classified the issue as a problem with the product.
Asked about the report, Stoltenberg noted that the FDA's adverse-event reporting system doesn't have a thorough review of events. "It would be premature to indicate the final disposition of the event," she wrote.
All medical devices carry risks. A St. Jude website on Nanostim cites peer-reviewed clinical research to estimate that 4 percent of traditional pacemakers come with complications, including 1 percent in which the pacemaker's pocket becomes infected and another 3 percent in which the leads become displaced.
Among the first 322 U.S. Nanostim patients through Jan. 5, all the serious adverse events taken together — 20 of various types, in total — amount to a 6 percent rate of complications. Dislodgments happened in 1.9 percent of the patients, and perforation or effusion happened in 1.6 percent. No infections were reported.
Medtronic, meanwhile, reported safety data for its Micra at an industry conference in Boston earlier this month. A company news release declared all 140 of its first Micra patients on three continents had "a successful implant procedure."
But the data say eight of the patients — nearly 6 percent of the study population — had serious adverse events, including two that required prolonged hospitalization. "This rate is in line with rates observed in studies of traditional pacemakers," the Medtronic announcement says.
Taking their time
Over at Boston Scientific, where engineers are still designing their leadless pacemaker, executives said their slower approach to designing such a device is partly a calculated decision based on the goal of achieving the highest safety statistics possible.
"Nothing is 100 percent," Dr. Kenneth Stein, chief medical officer of Boston Scientific's heart-rhythm management division, said in an interview. "Everyone in this business understands that. I think patients understand that. But we want to make sure that when you bring out a new technology that it is at least as safe as the one it is replacing."
Mayo Clinic's Friedman said he's glad multiple leadless technologies are under development, because some designs might be better for certain patients than others, and competition drives companies to improve their devices.
"One of the things I worry a little bit about, frankly, is that sometimes when there are competitors in a space, they make what I'll call provocative comments to suggest that one is better than the other," Friedman said. "The reality is, we don't have long-term data on any of the devices."

Timothy Zahn's second Thrawn trilogy of the new canon continues today with the publication of Greater Good, book two of the Ascendency Trilogy. Those familiar with the Thrawn novels will know what to expect here, but Zahn has pulled off a brilliant story that has instantly become my favorite Thrawn novel so far.
Please note: This post contains affiliate links. Spoilers from the previous Thrawn books are ahead.
As with every Thrawn novel, there's a lot going on in Greater Good right from page one with dozens of characters and multiple interwoven plots happening over different points in time. The book picks up shortly after Chaos Rising with the Chiss looking to mop up the final remnants of the Nikardum after their defeat of General Yiv the Benevolent. Meanwhile, a situation arises involving a group of refugees from an unknown world torn apart by a civil war that, we quickly learn, was manufactured by external forces.
Closer to home—or the Chiss homeworld at the very least—inter-family politics remain at the heart of everything. Thrawn's continuing reputation has endeared him to many but also won him plenty of enemies who would like nothing better than to see the skilled tactician brought down. When an unbelievable new opportunity presents itself to some low-ranking officials, they can't believe their luck, but who exactly is being led astray, and to what ends? Given Thrawn's difficulties navigating the world of politics, could this be the blind spot his enemies need to take advantage of?
Before the end, all the many threads throughout this story will be pulled together into a conclusion that will test Thrawn's military genius to its limits, but with the future of the Chiss Ascendency itself on the line, it's more vital than ever that he finds a solution.
If I'm being entirely honest, I've never been a huge fan of the Thrawn novels. They're dense, heavy tomes filled with what can feel like an excessive number of characters, plots, and other factors that I find hard to keep track of. Unlike many of the other Star Wars novels, these ones feel like work to get through, and I never found the payoffs worth that amount of effort. Greater Good started out that way too—any book that opens with a "Dramatis personae" list along with a reference guide to political and military ranks is never going to be an easy read—but somewhere along the way, something changed. By the time I reached the end, I was racing to find out what was going to happen next and actually finding myself excited for the next book in the series, something that had never happened with a Thrawn book before. Greater Good has even made me want to go back and read the previous books!
I think this might have something to do with the book's tighter focus. While there is still a whole lot going on here, the narrative also felt neater and easier to follow. The flashback sections are cleaner and work well to build tension by revealing small fragments of the larger story piece by piece, and even with multiple plots happening at the same time, it somehow felt as if they worked together better than ever before—I could see where things were going and was both eager and nervous to see how they played out.
There were still a few negatives, of course. Some of the political string-pulling early on still felt confused and difficult to follow, perhaps multiple read-throughs are required to fully appreciate exactly what is going on but not everyone has the time for that? I expect these threads to reach their conclusion in the third and final book given what we know of Thrawn's situation in the later trilogy so there's also little in the way of a satisfying payoff to be found here. The Chiss naming conventions continued to make following the story more difficult than it needed to be—but at least they allowed me to check off the "book with a character whose name I can't pronounce" prompt on one of the reading challenges I'm participating in this year! Finally, I still find it difficult during the times when I find myself rooting for Thrawn and even liking him a lot. It's hard to reconcile this rather genial, at times naive, figure with the vicious and even cruel Thrawn I first came to know through Star Wars Rebels.
Greater Good took me by surprise. I was expecting to have to power my way through this one as with all the previous Thrawn books in the name of keeping up-to-date with the ongoing canon, but instead, I found myself genuinely enjoying it and looking forward to the concluding part of this story arc. I hope that the final book of the trilogy—Lesser Evil coming out in November—will keep this up.

Jamal, A., Meisen, A., & Lim, CJ. (2006). Kinetics of carbon dioxide absorption and desorption in aqueous alkanolamine solutions using a novel hemispherical contactor—II: Experimental results and parameter estimation. Chemical Engineering Science, 61(19), 6590-6603. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ces.2006.04.047
In Part 1 of this paper, detailed design of the hemispherical apparatus and a rigorous mathematical model applied to CO2 absorption and desorption in and from aqueous alkanolamine solutions was presented with some preliminary results. This part of the paper provides detailed results on CO2–amine kinetics under absorption and desorption conditions and present new estimates of the kinetic parameter for aqueous solutions of monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), methyl-diethanolamine (MDEA) and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP). The absorption experiments were conducted at near atmospheric pressure with pure humidified CO2 at 293–323 K using initially unloaded solutions. The desorption experiments were performed at 333–383 K for CO2 loadings between 0.02 to 0.7 mol of CO2 per mole of amine using humidified nitrogen gas as a stripping medium at total system pressure ranging from 110 to 205 kPa.The new rigorous mathematical model discussed in Part 1 was used in conjunction with a non-linear regression technique to estimate the kinetic parameters. In all cases, the new model predicts the experimental results well. Also, the new results clearly demonstrate that the theory of absorption with reversible chemical reaction could be used to predict desorption rates. The zwitterion mechanism adequately describes the reactions between CO2 and carbamate forming amines such as MEA, DEA and AMP. The reactions between CO2 and aqueous MDEA solutions are best described by a base-catalyzed hydration reaction mechanism. The kinetic data obtained show that desorption experiments could be used to determine both forward and backward rate constants accurately. The absorption experiments, on the other hand, could only be used to determine forward rate constants. It was found that at all operating conditions used in this study, the kinetic parameters for MEA, DEA and AMP obtained using absorption data could not be extrapolated to predict desorption rates. However, for MDEA, these data could be used successfully to obtain reasonably good predictions of desorption rates.

- 2020 achievements include expanding the Board and executive team, closing an oversubscribed $3.2 million financing of common shares and completing key metallurgical studies on the North Island Project
- Upcoming PEA will reflect several updates and improvements to the previously completed study including:
- Red Dog copper and gold recovery estimate increased to 89.8% and 53.0%, respectively
- Hushamu copper and gold recovery estimate increased to as much as 87.9% and 50.8%, respectively
- Inclusion of silver and rhenium recoveries
- Updated capital and operating costs, metal prices and exchange rate forecasts
- Activity will continue to accelerate in 2021 with advancement of discussions with Indigenous nations and community engagement activities, initiating PFS work at the North Island Project as well as an aggressive exploration program on high potential targets
Vancouver, B.C. – Northisle Copper and Gold Inc. (TSX-V: NCX) ("Northisle" or the "Company") is pleased to provide a corporate update including progress on its ongoing Preliminary Economic Assessment (the "2021 PEA") on the 100% owned Red Dog and Hushamu deposits at the Company's North Island Project. The 2021 PEA will provide an update to the previously published study on the North Island Project, titled "North Island Copper and Gold Project, NI43-101 Technical Report, Preliminary Economic Assessment" and dated October 24, 2017 (the "2017 PEA").
Sam Lee, CEO of Northisle commented, "The past few months have been an exciting time to be a Northisle shareholder. We have taken several significant steps in 2020 including strengthening our leadership team, raising funds to take us through the next several key milestones and completing positive metallurgical studies at Red Dog and Hushamu. We have also worked to share the Northisle story with a larger group of investors and stakeholders and are encouraged by our conversations to date.
Since joining Northisle in October, I have been incredibly pleased with the high-quality people that we have been able to attract at the Board and management level with the addition of Kevin O'Kane and Nicholas Van Dyk. I have been working closely with the entire team as we develop the plan for the North Island Project including advancing discussions with relevant stakeholders regarding utilizing the existing infrastructure at the adjacent Island Copper Mine.
An update to the 2017 PEA is ongoing and expected to be completed in Q1 2021. We believe it will clearly demonstrate that the North Island Project is one of the premier copper development opportunities in the world driven by its attractive economics, modest capital requirements that are reasonably financeable, proximity to existing mining infrastructure and tidewater, and based in a secure and socially responsible mining jurisdiction.
On exploration, it has been gratifying working closely with Jack McClintock, who is widely recognized as being one of the leading authorities in copper and gold porphyry systems around the world. The prospective nature of our over 33,000 ha, spanning a 50km porphyry district play, has exceeded my expectations. We are developing an aggressive drill program in 2021 that looks at substantially increasing our resources at Red Dog and Hushamu, while targeting the high-level alteration lithocaps at the prospective Pemberton Hills target.
Looking forward to 2021, we expect to continue to accelerate our activities significantly. We are finalizing our plans for comprehensive engagement with Indigenous nations, communities and key project stakeholders, designing an exploration program targeted at several highly prospective areas of the property, and continuing to add breadth and depth to our team as we advance the North Island Project responsibly, and rapidly, through the key milestones of the de-risking process."
2021 PEA Update
Northisle commenced the preparation of the 2021 PEA on the North Island Project following the receipt of updated metallurgical testwork performed by SGS Canada Inc. ("SGS") on both the Hushamu and Red Dog deposits in September and October, respectively. SGS completed the metallurgical testwork report in early December 2020 and results will be used in the 2021 PEA. Details of the updated testwork by SGS can be found in Table 1 below.
Table 1: Comparison of Metallurgical Testwork Results
|2020 SGS Testwork
|Change (%)
|Hushamu (Low Pyrite – CMG)
|Hushamu (High Pyrite – SCP)
|Red Dog
In addition to updating the above metallurgical recoveries, the study will also reflect updates to the mine plan, operating and capital cost estimates, metal prices, and FX rates. Subject to completion of technical review and sign-off, Northisle intends to release the 2021 PEA in Q1 2021.
Table 2 illustrates current spot prices vs the prices used in the Base Case 2017 PEA.
Table 2: Commodity Price Comparison
|Commodity (Unit)
|Dec 11 2020 Spot Price
|2017 PEA Price
|Copper (US$/lb)
|Gold (US$/oz)
Copper and gold account for approximately 85% of the revenue in the 2017 PEA.
Based on the sensitivity analysis in the 2017 PEA, higher metal prices are expected to have a significant positive impact on the project's valuation as indicated in Table 3 below. Additional positive impacts on the project's valuation are expected with the increased metal recoveries and the inclusion of the recovery of silver and rhenium in the financial model. The 2021 PEA will include revised capital and operating cost estimates, which have increased since 2017 and will offset to some extent the increased metal prices and metal recoveries.

|2017 PEA Metal Price Sensitivity
|Payback (years)
The 2017 PEA is preliminary in nature, includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the plans outlined in the 2017 PEA will be realized. Commodity prices used in the 2017 PEA are as follows: US$3.10/lb Cu, US$1,300/oz Au, US$9.00/lb Mo, US$86/t Py Con, CADUSD 0.75x.
2021 Exploration Program
The 2021 exploration program will test several high priority targets, subject to available funding.
Red Dog
Drilling of approximately 2,400 metres in 4 core holes will target both the northwest extension of the higher-grade Red Dog deposit and test for the down faulted south side of the deposit. The northwest extension is highlighted by a 1 km diameter induced polarization ("IP") anomaly while the southern extension of the deposit is suggested by a broad area of high-level porphyry alteration where shallow (less than 200 metres) historical drill holes ended in mineralization with copper and gold grades in the 0.1% and 0.1 g/t range, respectively.
The southeast and northwest ends of the deposit remain open and require additional drilling to determine the full extent of the deposit. Based on surface mapping and peripheral historical holes the southeast end of the deposit could extend for as much as 300 metres. The extensions will be tested by 8 to 10 core holes totalling 4,000 metres.
Pemberton Hills
Exploration in 2018 and 2019 defined two compelling targets within the 3.5 by 1.5-kilometre porphyry lithocap. These targets are defined by induced polarization chargeability anomalies and clay studies. The exploration target at Pemberton is a deeply buried copper-gold porphyry deposit. In 2021, the targets will be tested with 3 holes each having a minimum length of 600 metres.
NW Expo
Exploration carried out from 2008 to 2011 identified a 1.5km long IP chargeability anomaly. Two previously drilled holes in one part of the anomaly intersected 175 grading 0.12% Cu and 61 metres of 0.09gpt Au. The untested part of the anomaly will be tested with 4 holes in 2021.

Isaiah Chapter 22
Verses 22:1-14: The valley of vision refers to Jerusalem, located on the hills surrounded by dominating mountain ranges. The gathering storm of judgment will dump its greatest torrents on Jerusalem herself. The coming Babylonian invasion will cause the people to go up to the housetops to observe the siege of the city.
Verses 22:1-7: Why is Jerusalem in such terror? Her slain men are not slain with the sword, but with famine; or, slain with fear, disheartened. Their rulers fled, but were overtaken. The servants of God, who foresee and warn sinners of coming miseries, are affected by the prospect. But all the horrors of a city taken by storm, faintly shadow forth the terrors of the day of wrath.
Kir and Elam are pictured as mercenaries of Babylon. The choicest valleys which had known the blessing of prosperity, will then be full of chariots of the invading army. The prophet calls for weeping, mourning and sackcloth (repentance), but instead the people have developed the attitude of eat and drink; for tomorrow we shall die.
Isaiah 22:1 "The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops?"
"Valley of Vision" referred to Jerusalem, since God often revealed Himself to Jerusalem in visions. However, the unrepentant inhabitants display a marked lack of vision in their oblivion to the destruction that awaited them.
"What aileth thee now?" The prophet reproached the people for celebrating with wild parties when they should have been in deep repentance because of their sins. Apparently, he anticipated a condition that arose in conjunction with Jerusalem's fall to the Babylonians (in 586 B.C.). But similar incursions by the Assyrians (in either 711 or 701 B.C.), from which the Lord delivered the city, had prompted the revelry among the people.
It was a custom of the people, in and around Jerusalem, to rest on the roofs of their houses. It appears much of their recreation took place there as well.
We remember from another lesson that we decided that "burden" meant prophecy. It appears that Isaiah had seen this vision from a low area near Jerusalem, looking up to the city. It seems they have overlooked weightier things and become idle. They are all on the housetop most of the time.
This is describing a society fixing its mind on worldly pleasure.
Isaiah 22:2 "Thou that art full of stirs, a tumultuous city, a joyous city: thy slain [men are] not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle."
"Stirs", in the verse above means crashing, or loud clamor. It appears from this, they did not even go to fight against the enemy that was now encamped around them. It really seems there was no armed combat at all in the city, but they were surrounded by the enemy. The city was wholly given to pleasure.
"Sword … battle": Death came through starvation or disease as the Babylonians besieged the city.
Isaiah 22:3 "All thy rulers are fled together, they are bound by the archers: all that are found in thee are bound together, [which] have fled from far."
It seems the rulers have given up without a fight. The rulers of importance here, does not just mean the ruler, but all in authority. It really appears they quickly saw they were trapped, and tried to escape. The enemy caught them and put leg or arm chains on them, and hooked them together with the others.
Rather than defend the city the way they ought, the leaders fled to save their own necks and in doing so, were captured (2 Kings 25:4-7).
The archers are completely surrounding the city, so they are the ones who have captured those fleeing the city.
Isaiah 22:4 "Therefore said I, Look away from me: I will weep bitterly, labor not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people."
Isaiah's pain was deep. He could not participate in the revelry because he saw the reality of the spiritual issues. The terrible outcome of the land and the people is so great, that Isaiah's grief is overwhelming just telling of it.
I will weep bitterly; or, "I will be bitter", or, "bitter myself in weeping". It denotes the vehemence of his grief, the greatness of his sorrow, and the strength of his passion. Because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people; his countrymen, which were as dear to him as a daughter to a tender parent. Now spoiled, plundered, and made desolate by the ravages of the enemy, in many cities of Judea.
In war, it seems sometimes the women are spoiled, as well as the stealing of gold and silver in the land. This could be one of several times, such as the trouble Jerusalem will have at the end of the age.
We can even apply this to the society we live in today. The lifestyle of most is one based on pleasure of the flesh. Even much church worship is based on an appeal to the flesh of man over the spirit of man.
Isaiah 22:5 "For [it is] a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord GOD of hosts in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls, and of crying to the mountains."
The physical "breaking down of the walls", could be speaking specifically of the wall that surrounds old Jerusalem. In the spiritual sense, "breaking down of the walls", could be loosening up one's moral values.
For it is a day of trouble. To Hezekiah, and also Jerusalem, and all the inhabitants of the land. And of treading down; and of perplexity by the Lord of hosts in the valley of vision. In Jerusalem, besieged, and threatened with desolation. Which threw the king and his nobles, and all the inhabitants, into the utmost perplexity, confusion, and distress.
And all this was not merely from men, nor was it by chance, but by the permission and appointment of God. To humble his people for their sins, and bring them to a sense and acknowledgment of them. Breaking down the walls: of the fenced cities, with their battering rams, at the time they besieged and took them.
And of crying to the mountains: looking and running to them for help and succor, for shelter and protection. And crying so loud, by reason of their distress, as that it reached the distant mountains, and made them echo with it. For it is a day of trouble and of treading down. When our enemies trample on everything sacred and dear to us, and endanger all our best interests.
On a former occasion when the city was about to fall, terror had reigned among the citizens. It was to occur again, leaving no room for merriment.
"The valley of vision": A prophecy concerning Jerusalem, so called, because it lay in a valley, encompassed about with mountains, and which was the habitation of the prophets or seers, and the seat of vision and prophecy.
"Vision", came from a word which means revelation. This could be a valley of prophecy. Notice, where this perplexing is coming from, the Lord GOD of hosts.
Isaiah 22:6 "And Elam bare the quiver with chariots of men [and] horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield."
"Elam … Kir": These lands had representatives in the Assyrian army that besieged Jerusalem.
The fact that they carried the quiver, means they were ready to fight. It appears they were equipped for fairly faraway places. They were equipped with chariots. It also appears, that Kir discovered their weakness.
Isaiah 22:7 "And it shall come to pass, [that] thy choicest valleys shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate."
Valleys lying both in and around Jerusalem are to be full of enemy troops.
This shows a readiness to fight, which we did not see in the previous verses of this chapter. The difference being, the others were pleasure seekers. These Elamites were equipped for war and standing ready.
They had arranged guards to stay at their gate at all times. They were not foot soldiers. They had horses.
Verses 22:8-14: The weakness of Judah now appeared more than ever. Now also they discovered their carnal confidence and their carnal security. They looked to the fortifications. They made sure of water for the city. But they were regardless of God in all these preparations.
They did not care for His glory in what they did. They did not depend upon Him for a blessing on their endeavors. For every creature is to us what God makes it to be; and we must bless Him for it, and use it for Him. There was great contempt of God's wrath and justice, in contending with them.
God's design was to humble them, and bring them to repentance. They walked contrary to this. Actual disbelief of another life after this is at the bottom of the carnal security and brutish sensuality, which are the sin, the shame, and ruin of so great a part of mankind.
God was displeased at this. It is a sin against the remedy, and it is not likely they should ever repent of it. Whether this unbelief works by presumption or despair, it produces the same contempt of God, and is a token that a man will perish willfully.
Isaiah says (in Isa 22:8-13), his countrymen will look to their own strength to defend themselves, while others of them will drown their sorrows as to their country in feasting, but none will look to Jehovah.
Isaiah 22:8 "And he discovered the covering of Judah, and thou didst look in that day to the armor of the house of the forest."
"House of the forest": constructed by Solomon out of cedars (1 Kings 7:2-6), the structure housed weaponry (1 Kings 10:17), and other valuables (2 Chron. 9:20; Isaiah 39:2).
"The covering of Judah" is possibly speaking of the covering of weaknesses. It could be saying, the armor is not very satisfactory, since it is made of wood.
Isaiah 22:9 "Ye have seen also the breaches of the city of David, that they are many: and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool."
"The breaches of the city of David:", Not Jerusalem in general, but the fortifications of which, in times of peace, had gone to decay. And which they had seen before, but took no notice of, being in safety; but now besieged, and in great danger.
They looked upon them in good earnest, in order to repair them, and secure themselves from the irruption of the enemy; for this is not to be understood of breaches now made by the Assyrian army, but of old ones, which had lain neglected (see 2 Chronicles 32:5).
The city of David, of course, is speaking of Jerusalem. Jerusalem is known for its water supply gathering. Some of the conduits are directed into holding tanks, or pools.
The pool of Siloam furnished the city's water supply. Hezekiah's lengthy underground conduit fed the pool for the Gihon Spring.
Isaiah 22:10 "And ye have numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses have ye broken down to fortify the wall."
It seems that the houses which were not necessary for living purposes were torn down, and the material used to fortify the crumbling wall.
Hezekiah rebuilt the damaged wall (2 Chron. 32:5), but did so while trusting God. His faith contrasts with that of the people Isaiah currently addresses (verse 11b).
Isaiah 22:11 "Ye made also a ditch between the two walls for the water of the old pool: but ye have not looked unto the maker thereof, neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago."
This refers to the Gihon Spring, which the prophet sometimes referred to as the "upper pool" (7:3; 36:2; 2 Kings 18:17).
"Had respect unto him that fashioned it": Preparations for the city's defense were purely external. The people gave no thought to the Creator of the city, the pool, or the present crisis (32:1), against whom their physical defenses were useless.
This is a reprimand, because these dwellers in Jerusalem had not followed God who made the water supply in the first place. It appears they were looking for the physical use of the water, and not at the One who provided the water in the first place.
This problem has come upon Jerusalem and the fallen away church of our day as well, because they have forgotten God. I can also see in this that they were looking to the Old Testament (water), and not to the New Testament. The Word of God is associated with the water.
Verses 12-13, "sackcloth … joy and gladness:" In the face of a crisis that required genuine repentance, the people responded with hilarity and self-indulgence. Contrast this spirit with the legitimate joy and gladness of God's people (in 35:10; 51:11).
Isaiah 22:12 "And in that day did the Lord GOD of hosts call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth:"
This is a time of mourning brought on because of their falling away from God. Baldness and wearing of sackcloth tell us so much about what is going on here. They tell us this is a spiritual problem.
These people, of whom much was required, were weeping and mourning because God was allowing this to happen to cause them to repent. God was saying to them, "Repent and I will turn to you again".
2 Chronicles 7:14 "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."
Isaiah 22:13 "And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we shall die."
Paul cites the same philosophy (1 Cor. 15:32): if there is no resurrection, enjoyment in this life is all that matters. It utterly disregards God's eternal values.
This is the attitude of those who do not have a close relationship with God. It seems to be very prevalent in our society today. This describes a very fleshly attitude toward life. I would call it having every thought and deed centered on self. Eat all they want, stay drunk, and have a big time until they die.
Isaiah 22:14 "And it was revealed in mine ears by the LORD of hosts, Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord GOD of hosts."
Isaiah is saying, "Surely they will die in their sins". They are not willing to repent and turn from their wicked ways. Their sins will not be forgiven, because they have not repented and turned to God.
The Lord's prediction about the outcome of Isaiah's ministry (6:9-10), found fulfillment.
Verses 15-25: Shebna is referred to as the treasurer and apparently was the leader of the pro-Egyptian faction in Jerusalem. Thinking his position was secure, he had already ordered a large sepulcher (tomb), to be raised in his memory. Instead, Isaiah predicts that he will soon be demoted and will eventually die a pauper in a foreign country.
Shebna was replaced by Eliakim during the reign of Hezekiah, as indicated (in 2 Kings 18:18). The key of the house of David refers to the responsibility of protecting the Davidic line.
Isaiah 22:15 "Thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, [even] unto Shebna, which [is] over the house, [and say],"
Where do you have your treasure hidden? Are you of God, or the world?
Possibly of Egyptian extraction, this man was second in authority only to the king. Other Old Testament references to Shebna refer to him as a "scribe" (36:22; 37:2; 2 Kings 18:37; 19:2), his position after his demotion from steward as prophesied by Isaiah (see verse 19).
Isaiah 22:16 "What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out a sepulcher here, [as] he that heweth him out a sepulcher on high, [and] that graveth a habitation for himself in a rock?"
Shebna arranged construction of a tomb fit for a king as a memorial for himself, when he should have been attending to the spiritual affairs of Judah. The prophet condemns his arrogance.
This "sepulcher" is speaking of a grave. I believe this is asking the question, where is your final resting place? We choose our own eternity. The sepulcher (final resting place), will be in heaven, or hell. We choose our destiny. If we abide in the Rock, we will spend eternity in heaven with Jesus.
This is the same meaning as the sepulcher on high. Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven. The sepulcher, based on the earthly dwelling, leads nowhere but to the destruction of the body. Dust you are, and to dust you shall return.
Isaiah 22:17 "Behold, the LORD will carry thee away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover thee."
Literally, mighty or valiant man. Isaiah referred to Shebna's glorious estimate of himself.
It is the Lord Jesus Christ who separates the sheep (His followers), from the goats (the lost). Jesus, at harvest time, gathers His own to heaven with Him. The goats, or the chaff, are gathered and burned.
Isaiah 22:18 "He will surely violently turn and toss thee [like] a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory [shall be] the shame of thy lord's house."
Far from receiving a luxurious burial in Jerusalem, Shebna died a shameful death in a foreign country.
This is speaking of the wrath of God. It will be such a shame that many, who profess to belonging to the Lord, will be thrown away in that day. Christians, there is more to belonging to God than just joining the church.
Isaiah 22:19 "And I will drive thee from thy station, and from thy state shall he pull thee down."
"Drive thee from thy station": Arrogance caused Shebna's demotion from steward to scribe some time later in Hezekiah's reign (but before 701 B.C.; 36:1-2).
Notice, it is not Satan who drives the transgressors out. It is the Lord. Notice in the next two verses, it appears that God is saying something about law and grace. Those who were taught the law of God had turned away into selfishness and sin.
Isaiah 22:20 "And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:"
Eliakim, who replaced Shebna as steward or prime minister, was highly honored in being called "My servant".
Isaiah 22:21 "And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah."
"Father … Judah": The steward had supreme authority under the king's oversight.
To me, this is speaking of the robe of authority being removed from the law and given to grace, or Jesus Christ our Lord. Eliakim, in the furthest sense, is speaking of Jesus. The "robe" speaks of authority, the girdle speaks of God. It is said of Jesus, "The government shall be upon His shoulders".
The true believer in Christ is on His shoulders and on His heart. He (Jesus), is our High Priest. He is even spoken of as Everlasting Father. There is no other way given unto men to be saved, but through Jesus.
Isaiah 22:22 "And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open."
This authority to admit or refuse admittance into the king's presence evidenced the king's great confidence is Eliakim. Jesus applied this terminology to Himself as one who could determine who would enter His future Davidic kingdom (Rev. 3:7).
Jesus opened the door to the Father for all believers in Christ, when the veil in the temple was torn from the top to the bottom at the time of His crucifixion. The veil symbolized the body of Christ. Jesus also took the keys to hell away from Satan.
Jesus is the key to life. He opens, and no man can close; and closes, and no man can open. He is Life. He is the only Way.
Isaiah 22:23 "And I will fasten him [as] a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father's house."
"Throne of glory": The "throne" symbolized the honor Eliakim was to bring to his family.
Jesus is eternal. He is fastened, and no man can unfasten. Jesus is even now seated at the right hand of the Father. We will reign with Him. We will sit with Him at the throne of God, if we are believers.
Isaiah 22:24 "And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the vessels of flagons."
"Hang upon him": Returning to the figure of a peg (verse 23), Isaiah noted how Eliakim's posterity will use him to gain glory for themselves.
The Christians will receive glory with Christ. There is no other name. All believers in Christ are sons of God; we have been adopted into the family of God. We are heirs with Christ. There are vessels of silver and vessels of gold. We are not all the same, except that we are saved.
Isaiah 22:25 "In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that [was] upon it shall be cut off: for the LORD hath spoken [it]."
"Nail … removed": After a time of faithful service, Eliakim faltered and fell, and all "hanging" on him fell as well.
This is speaking of the time when Jesus said "It is finished". His work is done. He is seated in heavenly places at the right hand of the Father. We (Christians), will not be a burden to Him any longer.
The reason we know this is absolutely true, is because the LORD spoke it. If He said it, it will come to pass. We see the full payment for our salvation has been paid, and we are justified (just as if we had never sinned), in Jesus.

Objective Review Committee to Evaluate Applications-December 7-8, 2006. Anticipated Project Start Date-January 15, 2007. I. Funding Opportunity Description The purpose of the program is to award cooperative agreements that provide planning resources to Tribes interested in participating in the Tribal Self-Governance Program (TSGP) as authorized by Title V, Tribal Self-Governance Amendments of 2000 of the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act of Public Law (Pub. L.) 93-638, as amended. There is limited competition under this announcement because the authorizing legislation restricts eligibility to Tribes that meet specific criteria. (Refer to Section III (1.) (A), Eligible Applicants in this announcement.) The TSGP is designed to promote self- determination by allowing Tribes to assume more control of Indian Health Service (IHS) programs and services through compacts negotiated with the IHS. The Planning Cooperative Agreement allows a Tribe to gather information to determine the current types of Programs, Services, Functions, and Activities (PSFAs), and related funding available at the Service Unit, Area, and Headquarters levels and provide the opportunity to improve and enhance the healthcare delivery system to better meet the needs of the Tribal community. II. Award Information Type of Award: Planning Cooperative Agreement. Estimated Funds Available: The total amount identified for Fiscal Year (FY) 2007 is $600,000 for approximately twelve (12) Tribes to enter the TSGP planning process. Anticipated Number of Awards: The estimated number of awards to be funded is approximately 12. Project period: 12 months. Award Amount: $50,000 per year. Programmatic Involvement: TSGP funds will be awarded as cooperative agreements and will have substantial IHS programmatic involvement to establish a basic understanding of programs, Services, Functions and Activities (PSFAs) and associated funding at the Service Unit, Area, and Headquarters levels. The IHS roles and responsibilities will include:
Providing a description of PSFA's and associated funding at all levels, including funding formulas and methodologies related to determining Tribal shares. Identification of IHS staff who will consult with applicants on methods currently used to manage and deliver health care. Provide applicants with statutes, regulations and policies that provide authority for administering IHS programs. The Applicants roles and responsibilities will include: Research and analyze the complex IHS budget, to gain a thorough understanding of funding distribution at all levels to determine which PSFA's the Tribe may elect to assume. Establishment of a process by which Tribes can effectively approach the IHS to identify programs and associated funding which could be incorporated into their current programs. Determine Tribe's share of each PSFA and compare with their current level of services provided so that an informed decision can be made on new program assumption. III. Eligibility Information 1.

One of my favorite movie series when I was a kid – just as it happens with most of the people my age – was Indiana Jones. Ah, the adventures, the excitement, the explorations… the amazing loot! Now we all have the chance to become, more or less, Indiana Jones on Facebook in YayZee's casual RPG, Expedition Egypt.
Your goal in Expedition Egypt is that of completing Quests and completing ancient collections, while raiding other players (and surviving their raids) and building your empire of properties to generate coins for the items you'll need in completing quests. In other words, the game is your classic Facebook RPG like Mafia Wars or Vampire Wars, but with a different theme: you spend most of your time mastering missions and gathering loot, getting skill points to increase your stats and climbing up the charts trying to become the number one explorer in the game.
There is just a very small numbers of new things you can see in Expedition Egypt compared to other social RPGs and they're connected more to generating more income for YayZee than innovation itself. For example, you can scout other players before attacking them and see which has unbanked credits – but that costs 2 Expedition Credits (the virtual currency). Also, if somebody raids you and you want the losses back, you can pay 5 EC and it will happen. Not at all disappointing, just a piece of smart business, but I would've liked to see something I've never seen in a game before in order to completely feel that Expedition Egypt is worth my time.
But until then, there's nothing to make me or you quit the RPGs you're already playing just to switch to Expedition Egypt. The game itself is not a bad one, but there's really nothing about it to draw your attention, except for the amazing fact that for a little while you can feel like an Indiana Jones of the modern times. Except for that, it's the same: complete missions, raid players, get properties and level up like a mad man, waiting for the next set of missions to be unlocked.
Fortunately, it appears that YayZee also plans to expand the game (we're teased that a new area – Cairo – is coming up soon), which means that if you do start playing the game you won't get bored with its repetitiveness and you'll get regular updates which are vital for such a game. So if you don't have, like I do, a huge list of RPG's you're already playing and if you're a fan of the genre, Expedition Egypt might be a game you'll enjoy, so head over to Facebook and give the game a try!
