The Wofford women's lacrosse team fell 21-11 to Gardner-Webb in the program's inaugural game on a rainy Saturday afternoon inside Gibbs Stadium. Freshman Hannah Mutch, who scored the program's first goal, and junior Sophie Smith led the Terriers with three goals apiece. Juniors JoJo Franklin and Jessica Boruckieach netted two goals while freshman Ava Alvarez scored one in the effort. "Sophie and Hannah really stepped up and helped our offense, which was great to see," said head coach Ceri Miller. "We have some things to work on, but they're all fixable. We had some really great runs and never gave up, and I'm really proud of that. We have a lot of potential and I'm excited for the rest of the season." Amanda Steinmuller put the Runnin' Bulldogs on the scoreboard first, netting her first goal of the game less just 30 seconds into the game. Shortly after, teammate Talen Francis scored unassisted to put Gardner-Webb up 2-0 before Steinmuller followed with another goal on a free position shot. Eilish Gately followed with a goal of her own to push Gardner Webb's lead to four before Mutch scored her first career goal and the team's first of the match two minutes later. Steinmuller tacked on two more goals over the next six minutes to run the lead to 6-1.Sophie Smith scored with 17:02 left in the half on an assist from Mutch to cut the lead to 6-2, but Lindsey Lippert responded with a goal for the Runnin' Bulldogs. With just under 10 to go in the half, Franklin netted her first goal of the season to pull Wofford within four, 7-3. Lippert scored her second goal of the game on a free position shot with 9 minutes to go and a minute and a half later Steinmuller scored her fourth of the game. Jessica Borucki scored unassisted and Mutch scored on a free position shot to cut Gardner-Webb's lead to 9-5 at the half. Out of the half, Gardner-Webb tacked on two more goals from Emily Dyment and Steinmuller, but Wofford used a 4-0 run off goals by Mutch, Franklin, Borucki and Smith to cut the lead to 11-9, Wofford's smallest deficit of the contest. Wofford added goals from Smith and Alvarez down the stretch, but the Runnin' Bulldogs used an 8-2 run over the final 13 minutes to seal the win. Freshman Kelsey Thompson played all 60 minutes in goal for Wofford and tallied 10 saves. Mutch led Wofford with three assists, thus totaling a team high nine points in the loss. The Terriers won 18 draw controls to Gardner-Webb's 16, though Gardner-Webb outshot Wofford 42-37 and had 12 saves to Wofford's 10. The next week Munch was named the SoCon player of the week. She was the first women's lacrosse player of the week because this is the first season that the SoCon included women's lacrosse.

I am one of those people that believes things happen for a reason. I believe that we are inspired. I believe that inspiration comes from God, friends and family that have past on...and when we hear that little voice in our head saying do this...do that. Call so in so...or get out of that lane...or take a different route... I BELIEVE we should listen. I miss my friend. I often wish I could just have ONE more conversation with him. I would keep him up all night talking about everything and nothing. If you are a friend of mine you KNOW I love you...because saying I love you, even showing I love you isn't hard for me. But I would say it to him anyway, as many times as I could. I miss him. He went to early. With the ache of losing him and the hurts of my mother (4+ years ago)...I think I was trying to fill a gaping hole in my heart. That is part of why The Butterfly Project was born. At first I was discouraged with the number of people that would actually receive and accept the invitation to be part of something like this. I know life is busy and some might not be "the type" to express themselves in this way. But oh the joy that has come from hearing about the ones that are doing it...and CHANGING the world.
Today I got a little note from a dear friend that I love very much. I have always loved her. She has always been one of those kind and listening types. She has given herself and her all to others. Today the short message said she was so glad she was doing the Butterfly Project. It made my WHOLE DAY!!! Thank you K.M.
We can make a difference. We have so much power to do good! I challenge you to do it...in little ways, in big ways, any way!
Changing the world...ONE letter at a time!
In 2012 we challenged you to write 12 letters of Gratitude to people that influenced your life. Many of you did this and wrote amazing stories of the experience.
This year 2013 we are focusing on BEING PRESENT. This is your life. Each day is a gift. You can't turn in yesterday for more time. So make the most of each day and continue to be grateful and embrace life! Be Present! We are changing the world...ONE DAY AT A TIME!

Kate Middleton twins: What happens to royal succession if the Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William ever had twins – and how it would affect Prince George and Princess Charlotte
Since Kate Middleton announced her pregnancy there's been a lot of speculation about when her due date is and whether it could clash with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding.
But as the Duchess of Cambridge continues to flaunt her baby bump, the public are becoming more interested in Prince William's wife's pregnancy as they get excited to welcome another royal baby alongside Princess Charlotte and Prince George.
And while there's been a lot of speculation around Kate's due date and baby sex, some fans are questioning whether Kate could be pregnant with twins.
While there's nothing to suggest Kate is expecting more than one baby and twins don't appear to run in either family, it has led to questions over what would happen to the royal succession to the throne.
The rules were changed so that gender is no longer an overriding factor, meaning Princess Charlotte will not see her position slip if the new baby is a boy.
This means Prince George would still be third in line, followed by Princess Charlotte.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge announced they are expecting their third child on September 4 2017. Whilst Prince George and Princess Charlotte can expect a new brother or sister, we take a look at Kate Middleton's best maternity fashion looks
The new baby would be fourth.
Until as recently as 2012, if a royal had twins and they were a boy and a girl, it would be the boy who automatically got to wear the crown.
But now, if Kate ever had twins and had a girl and a boy, it would be the first-born who succeeds, regardless of gender.
Kate recently delighted fans when she stepped out for the first time since announcing her pregnancy, revealing her baby bump in a blue Alice Temperley dress.

It took just 30 seconds of madness ...
But he loses the ball, it's played hurriedly upfield into space deep into the Pionsat half. There's a race on for the loose ball, which is won by a Pionsat defender and, under pressure from two attackers, and after all that I have said and after all that I have written and after all the time that I have been saying and writing, he goes to whack it upfield instead of playing it out into touch to give his fellow defenders time to come back.
His kick is poor as you might expect, and it cannons into the midriff of one of the attackers, and then out into the path of the other who has only Matthieu in goal and that is that. 4-4
From the kick-off, Pionsat lose possession and Clermont go on the attack. The forward is brought down and a quickly-taken free kick is fired into the penalty area and headed home while the Pionsat defence is still trying to organise itself. And Pionsat are out of the cup and thats a shame because this was an excellent match played at high speed and in a good temper - one of the best matches I've seen played here since I've been following the team.
Today was shopping in Clermont and I was off on the wrong foot again as I slept through the alarm and so was 2 hours late going.
And I spent a fortune too. I've all the hydrofuge plasterboarding for the shower room seeing as how it was on offer, and I've bought a wheel for Caliburn. I have two snow tyres that I fit in winter and one of them is on the spare wheel but the other is not on a wheel at all and I have to keep getting it swapped over with one of the summer tyres and that costs me €15 a time. It makes much more sense to pay €65 for a wheel and keep the tyre on it around here like that, and then I can swap the wheels over whenever it suits me to do so.
But I have also spent €279 on a new woodstove for in here. You may recall that I bought a cheap pot-bellied stove for up here and though while it does what it's supposed to do it has a very small capacity and it needs to be filled every 15-20 minutes. What I saw in Mr Bricolage was a more conventional woodstove with a glass front. It's larger and it takes logs of 33cms. and as it burns horizontally and not vertically, then I can stack it up and it should last for quite a long time without reloading.
But that's not the exciting bit. This woodstove has a rear exit for the smoke and the top of it has a lift-up lid, under which is, I suppose, a small top-loading oven about 6 inches or so deep. I'm immediately thinking "pizza", "shepherd's pie", "oven chips with spicy been taco rolls", "baked potatoes and baked beans", "rice pudding" and loads of other things besides.
Yes, when winter bites and I feel the need for hot food and it's too cold to go downstairs and cook in the verandah at -10°C, and when I want to boil some coffee last thing at night and put it in a flask so I have hot coffee in my room first thing in the morning, I can see a lot of benefit in this new stove and its oven. I'm hoping to have my money's worth out of it.
The pot-bellied stove isn't going to be lost, though. I have a cunning plan for that, more of which anon.
I also managed to fit a swim in this afternoon. And it was perishing freezing in there again. Even the Polar Bears were complaining. I'm going to have to give the piscine at Neris a missof it carries on like this.

I dunno what your cunning plan is, but heating your downstairs work area and venting it out a window with a circular cutout in some aluminium sheet is what I'd suggest. It would save you freezing your nom de plumes off and it would be right where you could keep it fed with scraps of wood too.ReplyDelete

Anna Matthews left home at eighteen, a young woman rooted in small-town virtues, seeking adventure in the Green Mountains of Vermont. She found a free-spirited young man whose boundless imagination captivated her heart. Forced apart, Anna tries to build a new life. A decade later, a series of gripping novels awaken Anna's veiled dreams, illuminating a striking disparity within her marriage. She seeks the author, but the truth she discovers will change her life. Anna is confronted with a clear choice--continue living the comfortable, but hollow American Dream or pursue her dream. In his auspicious debut, Kirk Martin paints a love story that is at once soaring and bittersweet. Shade of the Maple captures the subtle, yet powerful nuances that distinguish mere romance from intimacy. An intimacy that is powerful, moving and unforgettable.

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans GroEL Protein Promotes Conversion of Human CD4 T Cells into IFNγ IL10 Producing Tbet Th1 Cells
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans GroEL Protein Promotes Conversion of Human CD4 T Cells into IFNγ IL10 Producing Tbet Th1 Cells - Descarga este documento en PDF. Documentación en PDF para descargar gratis. Disponible también para leer online.
One of the heat shock family protein Hsp expressing bacteria is the gram negative, periodontal pathogen Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Aa. A. actinomycetemcomitans' Hsp is a 64-kDa GroEL-protein, which has been shown to influence the host cells. In this study we used recombinant A. actinomycetemcomitans GroEL rAaGroEL protein as a model antigen to study GroEL-mediated T cell immune response. Human peripheral mononuclear cells PBMCs, when stimulated with recombinant rAaGroEL, expressed early activation marker CD69 and IL-2R CD25. CD25 and CD69 expressions were higher in CD4+ T cells compared to CD8+ T cells. rAaGroEL-responding CD4+ T cells expressed IL-10, IFNγ and TNFα cytokines. Interestingly, there were also IL-10 and IFNγ double cytokine producing CD4+ T cells. Additionally, IFNγ expressing CD4+ T cells were also T-bet positive. Altogether the results suggest that rAaGroEL protein affects CD4+ T cells to differentiate into IFNγ IL10-secreting T-bet+ Th1 cells.

Mornin' kids! How are you this fine Wednesday? Sadie says she wants to go for a walk and I think I'll have to take her since it's not raining today--it rained all day yesterday. Again. SO tired of the rain.
Anyway, today I have the world's fastest dinosaur card for you! But just because I put it together in five minutes doesn't mean it's not cute.
I'm still having fun coming up with color combinations featuring Emerald Envy; today I paired it with Tempting Turquoise and Pumpkin Pie. At first I wanted to tear the bottom edge rather than the top, but I'd stamped the stegosaurus and sentiment a little too far down for that to work right so I did the top instead. I actually like it that way, it's a little more unexpected. Thought about adding some Candy Dots or something, but then I decided it's better CAS.
I'm entering this over at the Paper Players:
Dinosaurs were wild animals, right? ; )
Okay, as soon as I finish breakfast I'm off to take my little doggos for a walk. Cheers, y'all!
Supplies, all SU!

VERY cute. I do like the jagged edges at the top of the card.
Hope you are having a good day. We've got rain here . . . and it has been gloomy this whole week. I get tomorrow off for my eye surgery -- I think I'll take a nice long nap afterwards as I have to be in their office at 8:15. That means Dad has to get up early. Ha!
Love you!

Happy Thanksgiving to one and all, unless you live outside these United States, in which case it's just Thursday and you're less likely to be gorging yourself on turkey and trimmings, and also less likely to be mown down by mad shopping crowds in the Greatest Capitalist Orgy In The World Ever tomorrow (traditionally known as "black Friday" in the retail world due to the fact that there are so many sales it allows their accounts to go back into the black if they've been in the red for a while).
We're getting into the seasonal spirit and having some friends round for dinner tonight. It's meant that we've also done our Annual Cleaning.
We're teaching Toby some Christmas carols for the holiday show at his daycare in a couple of weeks – slightly worried because he's just moved class so not had so much time to learn the new songs. But they gave us a sheet of the three songs to learn, two of which he has mixed up … with hilarious consequences!
One is The Little Drummer Boy – "come, they told me/pa-rum-pa-pum-pum/a newborn king to see/pa-rum-pa-pum-pum" – which was famously and bizarrely sung by Bing Crosby and David Bowie a number of years ago. Another is Deck The Halls. Last night we were getting him to sing Deck The Halls, which in Toby's world goes "Deck the Halls with sousand harley/fa-la-la-la-la pa-rum-pum-pum/'Tis the season to see Charlie/fa-la-la-la-la pa-rum-pum-pum"

Top dining app debuts game-style discount platform in the greater Baltimore area
Spotluck, one of the area's most popular discount dining apps, now hopes to become as beloved in Baltimore as the Ravens, Orioles and Natty Boh. The app officially launches in Charm City this Friday, October 21st.
Spotluck consistently ranks as the #1 dining app on the iTunes app store. With viral success around Washington, D.C. and Philadelphia, Baltimore was the natural choice for expansion for the platform. Over 600 locally-owned restaurants in the DMV and Philly participate on Spotluck. The mobile app will debut in Baltimore with 70 partner restaurants across five neighborhoods.
With the simple spin of a wheel, Spotluck users discover new restaurants and enjoy "smart" discounts that range from 10%-35% off. The free app's discounts fluctuate based on factors like day, time, and weather, working under the premise that going out should cost less on a rainy Monday night than on a busy Friday night.
The Bethesda-based company works exclusively with local spots — not chains. Popular Baltimore restaurants include Mother's Grille, Café Hon, Mama's on the Half Shell, Wayward, Alma Cocina, Langermann's, Whiskey Hill, Points South, Fells Point Tavern, Mussel Bar, and Café Troia. Spotluck launched Baltimore with restaurants in Fells Point, Federal Hill, Canton, Towson, and Hampden. The app will be expanding to Mt. Vernon, Locust Point, Columbia, and Ellicott City in the coming weeks.
"Baltimore's local restaurants have tremendous pride in their neighborhoods. We're excited to bring them together on Spotluck to collectively share the city's local flavors," said Cherian Thomas, Spotluck's CEO.
Spotluck is available for free download on iPhone and Android.

So I wasn't really ready to announce this again but we found out on the 1st that we are expecting again. Yes, I am still in shock about this because I just stopped with the contraceptive we were using because it was making me too sick all the time and I dealt with being sick for a year. Before going to Texas we decided to have my IUD removed but faced some fear when I was told that they were unable to find it so I went in for a sonogram and they were able to locate it and at that moment I was not pregnant. We left to Texas and I stayed for a month but I got real sick not relating to pregnancy and then when I finally got over it I noticed I was really nauseated so on the 1st I took a pregnancy test thinking there is no way I am pregnant because we had been too busy with visiting family and the funeral of my uncle for us to even have time to make a baby. Well I guess I was wrong and just for the record it only takes one time to get pregnant. Who would have known that? Well I should, right? Anyways the reason for me announcing it now is because I have been in so much pain for the past week and a half. I am assuming it is because of all the traveling that has messed up my stomach but it hurts so bad. Last night my stomach hurt so bad that I was really swollen and it almost looked like I was about seven months along which is impossible because I am still in the first trimester. I was up for a long time because the pain was so strong. Finally it passed and I was able to get back to sleep. The swelling in my stomach has gone down tremendously but my stomach hurts a lot still. I am going to try and take TUMS or something like that and if it doesn't resolve my problem I am going to have to go in and find out what the problem is. Please pray for me and this unborn child.
P.S. I am not really sure how far along I am but we are assuming anywhere from 5-7 weeks and by the look of everything this baby should be here by early May but nothing has been confirmed because I have not been able to see my midwife which is why we never made a formal announcement of this pregnancy.
The End.

If they dont' have fillers they have to sometimes cancel the series, which is even worse. Take Inuyasha for example. Instead of having fillers they just cancelled the series in 2004 when they caught up to the manga for the second time. So because they didn't want filler you ended up getting no anime until Inuyasha the Final Act (5+ years later). However because of this they had to put 20 Manga Books into 24 episodes. This compares to 35 manga books into 180+ episodes in the original series. Basically because they didn't want to do filler we ended up losing a lot of good canon content.
Blimey, I didn't know that. Sounds extreme. The way I see it with Naruto Shippuden, hopefully all the canon stuff is kept on and fillers are added not just to buy time for the manga but to also add further emphasis on the canon stuff and that's supposed to improve the story but so many people take it badly.
Well I feel like its the fact that the writers of the manga and the producers of the anime are different teams. If that's the case then the have to actually use their brains and produce an episode, without a script to go by.
So the problem is that the animation dept is sorely lacking creativity.
Soooo... should they sack the whole dept and hire a new team?
the anime naruto had many fillers
if u remember the first time they did the fillers it was in "naruto" not "naruto shippuuden"
from episode "133" till episode "220"
220 - 133 = 87
"87" filler episodes before naruto shippuuden
this time if the fillers continues more than 20 episode..
i think they will reach 87 filler episodes again
and maybe they'll start a new series "Naruto MADARAuuden"
the Manga is complete created by Kishimoto, with maybe a couple editors, then it is published, after it's published the animators then start to create the animation for it, this is a lengthy process since they have to draw new scenes to correnspond with the manga
will come on as often as possible.
The fillers in Naruto ruins the series
Well now they shouldnt worry that they will catch up the manga. The manga will probably be over long before we see it in anime.
Also how come the fillers are so damn kindergardenISH? ( Its worse than pokemon x100) And they have fighting in the fillers, but against silly monsters, lousy pirates or naruto shadow clone.Did i mention "the girls get together episode" !?! Cant they make some interesting shit out of it,.. Don the creators get paid ?!??!

I agree, the fillers are the reason Naruto has lost alot of it's fans between that and Jiriaya's death, Naruto's popularity is going downhill, it will go to rock bottom if Kakashi or Hinata die sadly and wierdly considering Hinata isn't even a primary character
will come on as often as possible.
I bet the amount of viewers took a plunge when they did (Kakashi was resurrected later and Hinata was thought to be dead for at least a week on two occasions: when it happened in the manga and when it happened in the anime). My brother told me how he was massively pissed off about Kakashi and even contemplated not watching anymore episodes. I was like that with Hinata but something told me not to count her out.

I think people will be upset if Hinata dies even though she isn't a primary character because they still hope that Naruto and her will be together in the end. I am not that obsessed with the pairing wars but if Sakura gets Naruto after treating him crap all these years I am going to be mad as hell!!! LOL
Well. Fillers really suck. They are usually very poorly executed in Naruto, but they are often a necessary evil.
One anime episode can easily chew trough 1,5-3 manga issues. 1 manga issue = 1 week, so it's not hard to understand why the anime catches up to the manga fast.
I don't think the fillers will ruin Naruto, I really don't. They are a bit smarter with them than Bleach where they tie the fillers into the main show, which is really confusing if you've read the manga.
As for Naruto loosing popularity, I really really doubt it. During the fillers, sure, but... If you've sneak peaked at the coming arch it will rock your world and make up for all the time waiting for it to start. So I'd rather have fillers enough for the anime to complete the arch close to the same time with the manga. I really don't want to be in the middle of the next arch and have 10 filler episodes, then 5 OMG!!! episodes, then 10 more fillers.
The solution to a fillerless anime would be to make Naruto a 1 episode @ 30-40 minutes pr month or something, but I doubt that will ever happen. There is to much money in the franchise at the moment so even the fillers count for some.
Impatiently awaiting a new episode of Shippuuden
People are complaining that the Anime team isn't rationing the manga enough, but honestly it's next to impossible to keep a good chapter to episode ratio, especially if the chapters are basic. 17ish pages going into 30 minute videos rarely happen 1:1.
The manga is a year ahead from the anime ..
but they still can't start coz when they get close to the manga they'll have to make fillers .. and they can't do that in the middle of the war !!
When they start .. they r not gonna stop coz the war is long and it's the final arc.
Well we assume it's the final arc. The Anime team just wants to make sure it won't catch up. However, I'm sure they will have plenty of ideas for filler scenes in the war. Let's just say the manga isn't as detailed in some parts as I would like it to be. With any luck, the Anime will fill in some of those details.
man the reason i stopped watching bleach was because of its terrible fillers

Congratulations to Brianna + Matthew on their Wedding last weekend in Charleston!
They were married at the First Baptist Church and held their reception at the Wescott Golf Club;
two places I had never photographed before.. so I was excited to say the least!!
ANDDD, not to mention Brianna + Matthew are an absolutely dashing couple,
so I was excited to get them in front of my lens from the beginning!
These two fell madly in love during college, where Matthew attended the Citadel, and Brianna, the College of Charleston.
They met over dinner with some mutual friends, and their love story has taken off ever since!
As someone who honestly barely knew these two, I could tell throughout their whole wedding day
that they weren't nervous at all.. just simply ready to marry their very best friend. :-)
*cue heart swelling!!*
Matthew + Brianna share an energy that allows them to be nothing but their genuine selves.. and I absolutely adore that!
After hearing all the wonderful things mentioned about the two of them during toasts from their loved ones,
I knew exactly why and how these two fell in love. <3
Their compassionate and loving nature brought them together,
and what will keep their love bonded throughout the test of time!
I am SO freaking excited for you both, and cannot wait to see where this next journey in marriage takes you!
Congratulations again, and enjoy your BEAUTIFUL sneak peak! <3
Brianna + her bridesmaids were absolutely gorgeous and such a pleasure to work with!
They were simply the best when it came to making sure their precious bride was taken care of!
Before we did our first look with Brianna + Matthew, we had to make sure to grab some shots of the groom and his sister since she helped with his boutonniere!
Now they are off to see each other! :-) Brianna's bridesmaids helped her along, and Matt patiently waited for his bride! These moments are seriously my favorite on a wedding day!
Just saying.. I could have photographed these two all day!
BUT, I knew we were running out of time before guests started
arriving to the ceremony, so I hurried on along! (lol)
As you can see.. it was hard for me to stop snapping away at their perfection! :-)
Now it's time for these two love-birds to get married at the First Baptist Church!! <3
And let me just put it out there, that a wedding isn't complete without a shot of the back of the dress coming down the aisle! I'm super particular about capturing this photo for my brides.. just in case you were wondering. :-)
If you looked up the definition of perfection in the dictionary.. this would be the photo!
And finally we're off to enjoy the reception at the Wescott Golf Club! I had never been there before, but I'll tell you.. they did not disappoint!
And remember friends.. a sparkler exit is always a good idea!!

Studebaker was in dire straits by 1965. The South Bend plant had closed in late 1963 and production was consolidated to the last remaining production plant in Hamilton Ontario. It would be just a few more years before the plug was finally pulled on March 16, 1966. Despite the woes that the company had been going through since the mid 1950's Studebaker produced some of the more innovative cars of the time including the Studebaker Wagonaire that had a short run in the final three years of Studebaker. The wagonaire was a restyled Lark that had a distinctive rear roof that slid forward greatly expanding the cargo space. Studebaker advertising promoted their unique roof feature by showing families loading up in the open cargo area with kids, dogs and even a playground slide; actions that would get you pulled over nowadays!
This 1965 Wagonaire is a beautifully restored rat rod is a beautifully restored wagon that for the most part retains its original look with some nice performance upgrades. The Studebaker is listed on Ebay and located in Ferndale, Washington.
The bright yellow was not a factory color but it does give a bit of a clue that this is not a stock Studebaker. Chevrolet based engines were use in Studebakers in the final two years with 230 straight sixes and 283 V8's as the options. The seller of this Studebaker installed a 1967 327 285HP Chevy engine with an Offenhauser intake manifold and an Edelbrock carburetor, rams horn exhaust manifolds and a complete new duel exhaust with Flow-master mufflers. GM 11 inch disc brakes are also among the many performance upgrades listed.
The body restoration was extensive with the body being disassembled and stripped down to bare metal. Any rust spots were cut out and replaced with new metal. All the chrome and stainless were either replaced or buffed. Amazingly the interior seats and door panels are original.

The beautifully-talented Hayley Cannon has revealed the video for soaring album track 'Who Are You?' and it's here in all its glory for you to watch and share.
Hayley says of the introspective track: "'Who Are You" got me thinking about my own family, about the traits we've learned from each other and the ones that seem in-built. Some characteristics skipped generations, then cropped up in me or other relatives. Some of them are good. Others, less so. In the case of the latter, I wonder if we can heed the warnings from our ancestral past? Or are we headed for the same fate?"
All deets, promo links and more below. It'd be great if you can review Hayley's album – it's really special, and I hope you enjoy it.

Keeping God's commandments – The question of intent
Having been in a number of discussions with certain individuals about the need for some belief to be behind the keeping of the Seven Commandments, I've had some thoughts about the issue. With the recent articles that touch on atheism, and my other thoughts about christianity, I want to clarify some of my positions and maybe relate an unanswered question that still remains.
There is a place with regards to the Seven Commandments where almost every Gentile is equal, and that is in the realm of action. It is in this realm that any Gentile can be held up to the Seven Commandments, as a legal system, and judged. It doesn't matter about that Gentile's belief per se. What matters is whether a Gentile performed a certain prohibited act within specified parameters. Did that Gentile steal that item? Did the words that the Gentile spoke fit into the definition of "cursing God"? Did that judge accept a bribe?
It is on this level that generally Gentiles are equal. There's no silly lines of religious segregation. All that matter are the circumstances around the act and whether it was purposeful or not.
Thinking like a judge or a justice officer (as opposed to our corrupt police system), whether a person is an atheist or a christian or a deist or a hindu makes little difference. The only question to ask is whether an individual broke one of the Seven Universal Commandments, and that would be it.
It is on this level that any person of any religious colouring can be seen as "law abiding" regardless of their beliefs. It is on this level that any Gentile in any country can be held accountable for his actions despite his background. How well did he really think about what he was doing? Was he too lazy or otherwise to use his maturity to control his own actions? Was he coerced or just a damned sheep in a herd? Any Gentile having reached a certain age should be responsible for his actions regardless of his background, regardless of his beliefs. On this level, an atheist or a christian or a Hindu can still be law abiding according to the core seven laws.
But that is just talking on a legal level, where the Seven Laws meet the real world.
But there is another level that I've discussed with certain individuals, individuals that see a need for belief. It is on this level that terms like "chasidei umos olam" gets used. "chasidei" doesn't mean "righteous" in terms of actions, but rather "devoted". So the term roughly means something like "the devoted ones of the nations of the world" or "the pious of the nations of the world". That is at least according to a rabbi called Rambam. Let me discuss this level with you a bit more.
It is a concern for all those who actually know the Seven Laws that they be built on the foundations of objective standards, not on the whims of individuals. The fact is that the Seven Commandments were commanded by God to Adam, reiterated to Noah, and then "eternalized" by Moses at the giving of the Torah. This sets the Seven Laws on an objective basis. It's not about what man can rationalize, but rather what has been enjoined on him by a Supreme Source.
But on this level the question arises: can an atheist keep the Seven Universal Commandments, the Sheva Mitzvos Bnei Noach? But there is an additional question that I've seen few bring up. Can anybody, any Gentile, who doesn't have this specific belief about the specific history of the Gentile Commands be said to be keeping the Seven Universal Commandments? That applies to anyone other than the self-proclaimed religious group of Noahides.
A friend of mine tried to explain his view whether an atheist can truly keep the Seven Commandments by using a Hebrew word, shomer, which refers to the act of watching over and guarding something. With regards to a command, it seems to refer to the focused and intended preservation and active following of that command. He was of the opinion that without the act of properly observing the commandment as a command of God, without studying the details of the law, he is only inadvertently keeping the law (avoiding the prohibited acts) without the intention of observance. This is where he left it.
Now, this is true for any person, any Gentile, that doesn't knowingly keep the Seven Commandments but only performs the morality contained within it by avoiding the acts prohibited there due to their own moral codes. That includes those that acknowledge the existence of a god, who believe in the God of Israel yet reject the notion that he's given the seven commandments to the world and those that claim not to believe in any deity at all.
When it comes to this sort of intent, this sort of knowledge, the only way for a person to truly truly keep the Seven Commandments is to have the specific knowledge that Rambam spoke of in his Mishneh Torah: that a Gentile must know that God, the God of Israel, spoke these laws – seven specific laws with specific content – to Moses at Mt. Sinai. This knowledge must before admit the fact that God gave both a written and oral tradition at Sinai, both of which comprise the Torah. Speaking based on that, if a person doesn't believe that that specific God gave those specific Seven Laws to Moses at Sinai, they can't be keeping the seven commandments with the proper intent. No one else observes the Seven Commandments proper under this sort of thinking.
Now, let's talk about the practical impact of this belief about intent, this specific sort of intent. It must be readily understood by those that actually think about this narrow understanding of "intent", this narrow understanding of "observance", that the vast majority of the world throughout history is excluded. This sort of belief is narrower than the christian belief that only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God who died for their sins are saved and all else are damned, which logically excludes the vast majority of people that never have heard of him (which causes christians to speculate of things such as reincarnation, second chances, special judgements). I don't believe that this specific knowledge was heard of by the majority of the world either in historical times or even today.
Essentially, the people who demand such specific knowledge of a Gentile, on the basis of Rambam's word alone, exclude just about the whole world.
Having read something of the earlier sources of the Seven Commandments, I have somewhat of an issue with this focused and narrow view of the Seven Commandments.
Now I personally understand the need for an objective standard with regards to such a fundamental law. I understand how whimsical and unstable the reasoning of man is, justifying one act one day and condemning the same act another day. One day man will claim that abortion is wrong and then later on it's fine. Or maybe a person just needs to move to a different culture to find the right morality that suits them or just not get caught.
But understanding this need still doesn't stop me from seeing what is commanded and what is not commanded. Gentiles were not commanded to accept God. Yet the generalities of the morality of the Seven Commandments can be grasped with enough maturity. By that I mean that people who do not know the specifically the Seven Commandments can still avoid the acts prohibited in them. Despite what was said above, it is still possible for individuals within a society to be generally morally upstanding people and stay that way.
So it's like I'm at a point of slight contradiction or conflict. I know that objective standards are important. Yet I know that people can be good and avoid the prohibited acts without knowing them in this current day and age. This leads me to the following unresolved questions.
The Talmud mentions nothing about the specific knowledge demanded by Rambam to get a place in the world to come, that belief that God gave the Seven Commandments to Moses at Sinai with its several logical consequences.
So who are the righteous of the nations according to the Tosefos? I have my own conclusions on this but I haven't had validation of them yet.
Where did Rambam get the idea that Gentiles had to have this specific knowledge? For Mishneh Torah, Laws of Kings and Wars, Chapter 8, Halakhah 11, what was the specific source in the writings or traditions that came before? Why is his opinion authoritative? Is it authoritative?
Is Rambam's the only opinion on this?
Where I am right now? I'm focused on the practical side of things, the side of keeping the law that involves action primarily. For me, a Gentile is a Gentile and it's most important to at least get the behaviours corrected which can be done without God. That approach doesn't totally exclude the part about the necessity of God as a basis for the behaviours. But it doesn't emphasize it unnecessarily either. It's an attempt at a balanced approach as opposed to an evangelical or proselytising one. But then again, there is nothing to convert a Gentile to other than just being a better behaved one. As has been taught changing a person's actions can help change the way they think as well. The way I see things, any Gentile can be law-abiding, innocent of breaking the morality in the Seven Commandments. I'd think in terms of that sort of universalism.
Personally, I have difficulties with the faith-based "believe in this certain way to be saved" because my focus isn't on the next world but on improving this one, at least for myself and then for my family and then spreading outwards. I don't ignore the importance of God, but I'm careful about the steps I take in promoting the improvement of the world and myself.
