Perhaps you can call for me a man's man. Well, no - thatability is not to a certain extent factual. That form of implies thatability I am a dandy - I am not. For starters I don't savour looking football; neither do I approaching to hosiery my friends in the arm except for if theyability genuinely have it coming, nor do I have any problem talking just about my feelings. It is simply that, well, if it is a divergence between sentient in dreadful conditions and attractive the instance to launder up and festoon my room, 9 nowadays out of 10 I will elect to choose the filth. For sure what a dissimilarity feat affianced has made.
A few life back, we had departed out for purchasing. All along the way to the store, my woman couldn't assist but collaborate roughly the 800 twine enumerate sheets thatability she considered necessary. In offensiveness of her insistence, I had no hint going on for what 800 fibre calculate sheets are. Oh no, theyability definite cannot be the 300 wool count sheets, like the ones thatability I had once we first met thatability she was so crabby astir from about the clip thatability we got real. Frankly speaking, I really can't see the lack of correspondence. In fact she has 800 yarn calculate sheets on her bed, and at all modern world asserts thatability theyability are so considerably nicer than hole in the ground. As far as I m apprehensive a expanse is a piece of paper. Okay I say if it really makes her perceive joyful to get 800 yarn reckon sheets, God bless her purchasing trip, but it is a bit of a perturbation to be dragged along on such an journey.
It is not conscionable the apology down thatability she desires her expensive 800 yarn tell sheets. On my component I'm glad to spilt-upability the expenditure beside my darling fiancée for abode goods, as for everything other. Best significantly she necessarily the superior 800 cord measure sheets in in recent times the correct color made out of valid Egyptian plant fiber. As we dog-tired all day reading from outlet to store, superficial finished side after expanse that, in my opinion, all looked identical, and still, no fail-safe 800 cord compute sheets. By the end, I reflect I was going a bit distracted after defrayment so by a long chalk event opened finished perpetual aisles of soft, downlike pastels thatability looked more than or less the same to my eye. After our larger-than-life 800 thread tell sheets trip, I only required to electrical switch onto more than a few field game purely to unpleasantness her; uncalled for to say I was d.o.a. slaughter. I dozed off even in the past she could put her new 800 wool calculate sheets on the bed.Post ads:

Governments, no matter what Party are telling us we get Products & Services far too cheaply & add more and more taxes to make it all far too expensive. Here we have a video that shows the War time America where it interred over 100k persons in camps during 1942-5.. war years. The small living space per each family & clothing etc would be limited. Food allowance may have been better than say England, but they were in the middle of attacks from NAZI war machine.. http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/camp-fema-american-lockdown/
Born during the war, in mid 1943, I could remember wash day in the early 1950's was a Saturday. We & our neighbours were on small farms between 40 and 12o acres and a whole family lived on the land & the sale of product, mostly fresh milk or cream..
School was Monday to Friday, a small one teacher school 4 mile to the north of Dad's farm, I say dad's farm as he was the only owner marked on the deeds of the property, this made mother as 'farm labourer' and very little credit was place on work done by wives, mothers & children by any government of the time. You had to be excellent time manager, budget, economist as well as nurse,, Dietitian and many other duties that fell on the shoulders of the woman of the house.
We had three of everything, no more, often less. Our yard or play clothes were probably just two shorts or overalls, mine were hand me downs until I ended up bigger than my sister or she left home.. Dresses or Pinny & Blouse was the School wear & bloomers for undies, never skimpy scanties like my high school class mates taunted me with..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1o-SL_Pz9s
Singlets 3, Undies Bloomers = winter & Lawn Undies = Summer 3, Dress or Uniform 2 & one Sports, hat or beret = one. Shoes or Sandshoes = one pair. Bag was leather knapsack Dad had bought at auction one each. Brother got a new leather one .. bought locally, Australian Made.

Dennis Webber wrote: poetry of Sultan Bahu 1628 — 1691, a Sufi Master of the Light and Sound of God (Qadriya Order) who lived in northern India. The following ecstatic poems, translated from Punjabi, sometimes contain the word "HU," pronounced "WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO," a name of God which symbolizes and even mimics to some extent, the Kalma or Word, also known as the Sound Current – the Music of the Spheres. In most all of his poems, in the original language every other line ends with a HOO, for example:
akkheen surkh te mooheen zardee,
har wallon dil aaheen HOO
Muhaa muhaar khushboi waalaa,
pahuntaa vanj kadaaeen HOO
Ishq mushk na chhuppe raihnde,
zaahir theen uthaaeen HOO
Naam faqeer tinhaan daa Baahoo,
jin laamakaanee jaaeen HOO
The name "Bahu" means, "with God."
Then, in an ecstasy of love,
you will repeat the Name of HU constantly,
devoting every breath of your life
in contemplation of Him.
Only when your soul merges
in the Essence of the Lord,
will you deserve the name 'Bahu.'
HU is within, HU is without,
HU pervades everything;
where then is Bahu to find HU [God]?
He has wounded his own heart,
he has tortured his own soul
with austerities of all manner,
with worship of all kinds.
Having read millions of books,
he has also come to be called 'wise.'
But the name 'faqir' befits only him, O Bahu,
whose very grave breathes life!
Mystics live in this world as HU personified;
they practice the Name that is the essence of God.
They live in HU
beyond religion,
beyond belief and unbelief,
beyond life and death.
If you explore the Path within yourself,
you will find God nearby, through the Royal Vein.
He now lives in me and I in Him, O Bahu:
not only distance from Him
but even nearness to Him
have become irrelevant!
HU is within, HU is without,
HU always reverberates in my heart.
The wound in my heart aches constantly
with the unabating pain of HU's love.
The darkness of ignorance departs
from the heart lit by HU [God, Allah].
I sacrifice myself to the one, O Bahu,
who has realized the significance of HU.

Respondents of the Ameriprise Ages, Stages & Money study cite living within your means as the number one factor in their financial success. Your Ameriprise advisor can help you throughout all life stages to stay of track to achieve your financial goals. Financial confidence has little to do with your age, according to respondents of the Ameriprise Ages, Stages & Money study. The study revealed how investors across five decades with at least $100,000 in investable assets manage their money and how age and life stage has shaped their financial journey. Here are the highlights: Most have had a financial setback… and recovered More than half of survey respondents in every age group from 30 to 79 revealed they have experienced a significant financial setback in their lifetime. The good news is that despite experiencing financial setbacks, many study participants have recovered from them — and most who are over age 60 have fully recovered. Those age 30 to 49 indicated that hardships related to work, such as job loss and salary issues, have affected their financial situations. Members of this age group include those who: Faced a poor job market upon graduating from college in 2007 Experienced the economic changes of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars1 Those age 50 and older experienced market losses as their primary setback, including: The Great Recession, which delayed some retirement plans Black Monday, which shook their optimism toward the stock market They are taking proactive steps to feel more financially secure Younger respondents are more likely to concentrate on paying down debt and contributing to a retirement account, while older generations focus on diversifying their assets and investing in a brokerage account to improve their financial picture.

The theatre originally opened in 1870 as the New Chelsea Theatre. It was quickly renamed the Court Theatre. The theatre played host to many of W S Gilbert's early works (including Randall's Thumb, Great Expectations and The Wedding March) and Arthur Wing Pinero's farces (including The Schoolmistress and Dandy Dick).
The theatre moved to its current site in 1888 and opened on 24th September as the New Court Theatre.
The venue was used as a cinema from 1935 to 1940 before it was damaged during the Blitz and was forced to close.
The theatre reopened in 1952 and, under artistic director George Devine, was aimed to be a platform for new writers. The theatre was host to work by John Osborne (Look Back in Anger and The Entertainer (which starred Laurence Olivier)), Arnold Wesker, Ann Jellicoe, Samuel Beckett, Eugène Ionesco, and Richard O'Brien's Rocky Horror Show.
In 1965, the theatre was host to John Osbourne's Patriot for Me and Saved by Edward Bond. These two productions required the theatre to be turned into a private members' club and helped bring about the end of theatre censorship.
By the 1990s, the theatre was in dire need of renovation and refurbishment. Having received funds for the works, the theatre reopened in February 2000.

General Synod – *That* Debate
July 14, 2014 § 8 Comments
Hello all. I've blogged Synod for some time now, and some of you have been nice about it, so here's my take on our business today. I hope it's the last time I have to report on a debate about Women Bishops.
We have been meeting since Friday actually. It has been very hot, and we've slogged through some very detailed housekeeping, tidying up how we are elected and how we are organised. We've looked outwards too, engaging in a variety of ways about how we serve the Common Good, and how we welcome people for Baptism in a way which will assist in their continuing discipleship.
At the moment we are debating the Armed Forces Covenant – how we support those who are in, or used to be in, the forces, with all that they face. There have been some powerful speeches about how churches have served such people well, or badly. We will commit ourselves to detailed support – whether we support the principle of war or not.
And soon we will start the debate on Women Bishops. The vote will be later this afternoon.
11.06. For what it's worth…there is a cautious belief that the numbers will be positive and the legislation will pass. But you just never know. I can't imagine that there are any who are still vacillating on the principle (as there still were in 1992 when it was about priesthood). But there may be some who need to be convinced that those for and against can be guaranteed that they will mutually flourish. That was the bother in November 2012: some people in favour didn't think that provision for those against was adequate. The feeling is that those people are satisfied.
Much will depend on what those who are conscientiously opposed say in the debate. Perhaps some will say that they can abstain rather than vote against. But that will be for them to say, and not for us to ask.
11.30. The Bishop of Rochester has opened the debate, and spoken carefully and warmly. He, and the Archbishop of York who is chairing, have both said that there is little new to introduce, though Bishop James drew our attention to the promise of the House of Bishops to consider carefully how Bishops who are opposed to women bishops will be consecrated. (GS Misc 1079).
Paula Gooder, a member of the Steering Committee, says that she's been involved in this since her daughter was in nappies, and that daughter is about to go to secondary school. She reminds us what law can and cannot do, and calls us to the reconciliation and trust which being part of the 'new creation' of 2 Corinthians 5 actually means. The challenge will be to live out the life of reconciliation.
The Chair of the House of Laity, Philip Giddings, has made a speech which is moving towards cautiously accepting the package, whilst leaving all the objections in place. He's just said he will vote in favour. This is significant, as his speech in 2012 was against that legislation.
11.42. The Bishop of Ely recalls us to the 5 guiding principles which the House of Bishops has committed itself to, and has offered to the church. Though this measure might cause a 'rent' in the house of the church, we can still be one body as we commit ourselves to each other. 'We can make this work, we must make this work, and we shall make this work'.
Tom Sutcliffe, a distinctive member of the House of Laity (and who sometimes appears at my 8.00 service…) reminds us that the two world cup finalists, and the hosts, are ruled by women. He was another who is pro women bishops but voted against in November 2012, and now believes that this package enables the church to move forward. He looks to the day when women in all forms of ministry will be an 'unremarkable normality'.
The Bishop of Burnley is speaking, and looking for 'unity in diversity' (a phrase from John Macquarrie). He is conscientiously opposed. He fully accepts those who will vote yes, and wants to walk with them. He asks for the same generosity. He will vote 'no' in 'obedience to God in conscience' (a phrase from Archbishop Rowan) He confidently expects the measure to pass, and looks forward to making things work, building on trust. In a really powerful moment he apologises if he has ever diminished someone with whom he disagrees.
Jane Patterson says she is a conservative evangelical, taking the 'complementarian' view of headship. She says she will vote against, and notes that no 'complementarian' bishop has yet been appointed. She says that, had one been appointed, she might have been able to abstain. As a Member of the Crown Nominations Commission she knows what she's talking about. Dioceses state what they want on this – and most say that though it would be good to have a complementarian bishop, it's not for them. She believes though that she can contine in this church, and will do so.
Andrew Godsall, a cleric from Exeter, used to work for the BBC, and reflects that the BBC was more Christian than the church into which he was ordained. He learned a teamwork there which he didn't find in the church, and sees in the processes in this package an opportunity to connect the Good Book with the Good Life. This will be a great witness to the nation.
12.10 Julian Henderson, the Bishop of Blackburn, was in the House of Clergy last time, and voted against, though he was in favour of the principle. He will vote enthusiastically in favour now, because of the 5 principles. He sites the passage in Joshua where 2 and a half tribes across the Jordan build an altar – to the anger of the other tribes – clarify that they did it to ensure that future generations on the other side of the Jordan will know that they are faithful Jews. The five principles are like that altar, and will enable our diversity to enable the Common Good within our church.
Emma Ineson, Principal of Trinity College Bristol, speaks of 10 women under 30, as 10 good reasons to pass this legislation. If we do so, we will tell them, and many others, that they have a complete place in this church. They might not become Bishops, but it is vital that they are not prevented from doing so.
David Banting now to speak – a conservative evangelical (and a difficult man to dislodge when he's batting and you're bowling). He speaks of 'when' final approval is given, and affirms the level of understanding in his own diocese. He asks that the conservative position be 'understood', and wants differences of gender to be made visible, not removed. To remove differences of gender is to make the ministry a job, not a calling, he says. (I don't quite get that myself, but I'm listening carefully).
Prudence Dailey, a lay woman from Oxford, says that she voted against in 2012 – in principle – and now intends to abstain, as she has no desire to block a settlement which she thinks will now work, even if she is in principle opposed. (This is big news – Prudence is very visible, a Prayer Book anglican, and I like her greatly). She recalls the vitriol directed at those who voted against in 2012, and suggests that those who voted against in 2012 have enabled a better thing to happen. But all this should mean that we move forward together. Warm applause. I'd love to give her a hug, but she doesn't know me from Adam!!
12.25 Annette Cooper, an Archdeacon in the Chelmsford Diocese (and an old chum from Southwell days) talks of this package enabling healing from the hurts of two years ago. 'There is so much we can teach the world as we live out this commitment [to each other]'. She speaks of the 'projections we have loaded onto those with whom we disagree', and says that we are now listening to each other.
(Authorial interjection: two years ago we had speeches which alternated 'for and against', with no great evidence of listening and commitment to each other for the future. Practically every speech so far has assumed this will get through, and what we are about is living together well in the future. It feels a whole lot better).
Adrian Vincent, a lay person from Guildford, says he voted against last time. He represents a diocese many of whom are for women bishops, though is is not. He can just about support this package, but is against the principle in conscience. Nevertheless, he will now vote in favour, because it will benefit the church more to do so than to vote against, aware that in doing so he is going against his own beliefs, and the beliefs of the people who identified with him. (this is a profound thing – a person against in conscience who will now vote for. The 5 principles are what it's now about).
Christina Rees, who has done so much for women in teh church, is nearly in tears as she speaks of her surprise at what Adrian Vincent said – that for the sake of the church he will make a sacrifical decision.
(And I am crying as I type. Something amazing is happening here).
David Houlding, who, from an opposite position from Christina, and with her, aslso done so much to get us here, speaks of his hopes for our future working and flourishing. He notes that this trust will need to extend to our ecumenical relationships, which will be affected and changed by this.
Rosie Harper has spoken of the effect this will have on the position of women around the world – by affirming women in our church we will speak eloquently to places where women are attacked and denigrated.
(The Archbishop of York began the debate by saying he would rule out of order anyone who indulged in 'tedious repetition' of their own or others speeches. It is a testament to this debate that he has not had to do so)
Elaine Storkey reflects that the vote in 2012 might have been a work of the Holy Spirit. The atmosphere and culture now is different – a greater sense of optimism, and the opportunity for the release of further gifts of the Spirit, especially love.
Keith Malcouronne, a lay member from Guildford, voted against in 2012, and will vote in favour now. He testifies to the effect of how our committed speaking together has led to a much better package.
It is now obvious that a good number of people intend to change their vote from 2012. The atmosphere is positive and forward looking. In 2012 I wrote that the 'drift' of the debate was moving towards the failure of the legislation. Sniffing the wind today leads me to suggest that it's all very different.
We're about to move to lunch, after a time of prayer. May the afternoon debate be as profound, and hopeful.
After Lunch…
We have resumed. The Archbishop of York says that, of the 85 people who have indicated a wish to speak, 24 have done so. He congratulates them for not repeating anything, and hopes this will continue. He asks people to stand if they still wish to speak, and a good number have done so.
Jane Charman, an ordained member of the Steering Committee, invites us to see our future like a 'bring and share' lunch, where people bring all sorts to the table, either great are small, and all share.
Cherry Vann, an Archdeacon in the Manchester Diocese and Prolocutor of the Convocation of York, talks about how this might work, including a commitment to having different traditions on the long list of senior posts, and the requirement to enable people in the dioceses the quality and quantity of time to think through these things as we have done. Let us show how we can do 'good disagreement' intentionally.
Rod Thomas is now speaking. He leads the conservative evangelical group 'Reform', and was on the Steering Committee. He won't be able to vote in favour, but affirms the process thus far, and how it will play out. He will do his part in encouraging his kind of parishes to play their full part in diocesan life, and recognises that there may be difficulties to come – eg in people taking the oath of canonical obedience to a Bishop whom they cannot recognise.
Lorna Ashworth, a lay person from Chichester. She's opposed to women bishops, and though there is hope in the tone of the debate there is still vulnerability for those who are opposed in some of the language and arguments used. She is not confident in the use of words like 'flourishing' and 'trust', and will vote against, though she trusts and hopes in God.
Philip Rice, a London layman, voted no in 2012, and said it felt like a funeral. It does not do so now. There is such hope in flourishing evangelical churches in London, which are now appointing female leaders, that he will change his vote and vote yes.
The Revd Janet Appleby, from Newcastle, played a key part in trying to make the last process work, but feels this is so much better. As an ecumenist she feels this model would be good to offer to other churches. The 5 principles will help us in our relationships with other churches, as well as internally. She also invites people to abstain if they are at all conflicted. The voting is very close, she feels.
Chik Kaw Tan has three reasons to vote against. 1: theological – he has not heard a convincing theological argument for. 2: the arguments for women bishops are based not on theology but cultural mores. 3: the same arguments for women bishops could be used for same sex marriage. We are above all a people of the book. He will stand by his faithfulness to that teaching, and will vote against.
Sam Margrave feels like he has been in a slick show, where people's words in speeches don't relate to the pressures they are under 'out there'. He feels this is 'the end of the church of we know it'. 'Let the Spirit move and vote with your conscience'.
3.00 I can only see around 12 people standing…
Revd Jennifer Tomlinson says that we have got here because of scripture, not despite it, and recalls the key roles of women through the Bible breaking moulds and countering cultures (my words, not here!). She ends with the words that 'in Christ there is neither male nor female'.
Canon Robert Cotton from Guildford is a member of Archbishops' Council, and of the Steering Committee. He was struck by a facilitator who said that it was the 'tone' of an encounter which reveals 'latent value', and he felt there was a great tone. Recognising difference is an opportunity to dignify the other.
Sarah Finch, a London lay woman, will vote against, to continue to register that there are different theological understandings. She believes in complementarity. She thanks the Steering Committee and the House of Bishops – and looks forward to more than one Bishop being appointed who holds complementarian views. 'We will do our best to cooperate, thankful that we have the opportunity to continue flourishing in the Church of England'.
Clare Herbert, a London clergywoman, speaks in support of the legislation. She was a Vicar in Soho for a while. There was much life, but she was surrounded by images of women as objects, to be desired, then abused. She worked closely with prostitutes, and understood that their self image was enabled by some philosophies and cultures. By what we do as church we send out signs which affect others. We need to loosen our ties to philosophies which enable the subservience of women.
3.20 Gerald O'Brien, a Rochester Layman, addresses the Bishops present, concerning the House of Bishops Regulations. He asks what evidence there is to believe that the House will act. He repeats the demand for a 'headship' evangelical, and the lack of one as an example of the House not acting on its words. Even if one were to be appointed it might be 'too little too late'. Even if there were to be a dozen conservative evangelical bishops the constituency would be under represented.
Jane Bisson, from the Winchester Diocese (Channel Islands, I think), returns to Jesus not appointing female apostles. Women have a series of roles in ministry, but not a leadership one. She asks to be able to continue to thrive.
Philip North recalls a 1945 Labour election poster: 'Now win the peace', and this will be vital. The conflict has been profoundly and personally hurtful (he knows -he should have been Bishop of Whitby). He challenges Sam Margrave about his interpretation of the debate this morning, but acknowledges that it will be difficult to translate the quality of our interaction to the local level. We need to change the dialogue – away from 'internal hermeneutic to external apologetic'. He asks us to 'win the peace' – though he does not tell us which way he will vote.
Sally Muggeridge, a Canterbury Lay woman recalls the great gatherings we have 'together' and looks for more. She brings a message from Archbishop Tutu, hoping that we will vote in favour. 'You are in for a great surprise and a great treat…God be praised. Yippee'!
The Archbishop notes that new people are standing, and asks for people to restrain themselves.
Revd Angus Macleay asks how the culture of the 5 principles will act out, how people's consciences will be acknowledge, how scripture will be applied…and something else which I didn't catch! But can we join together to preach Christ crucified? He doesn't say which way he will vote, but I don't think it will be yes.
Susie Leafe, a Truro laywoman, is a member of Reform – anti women bishops, speaks of her experiences of the facilitated conversations. She was told she was wrong by one of the facilitators. When she joined a conversation the document had already been written and this was about editing. Now she is told not to complain. 'Is this a taste of flourishing?' We need a united passion to preach Christ. Again I don't think she'll be voting yes.
Judith Ayers, from Torquay, teaches in a Girls School. The one thing her girls can't be is a bishop. There should be no place for inequality in the church. It is time to vote 'yes'.
David Ashton a layman from Wakefield, has been on Synod since 1973, and says this is the best debate he has ever heard. Congratulations, and he will vote yes.
Fr Thomas Seville, from the Religious Communities says that trust will mean us doing things we can't just imagine. A female Archdeacon will appoint a headship evangelical. A 'headship' Bishop will appoint a woman vicar. Let us not slide back into a situation where 'trust me' means 'agree with me'. In ecumenical terms it will mean Methodists rejoice. It will mean orthodox and roman catholics will be sad.
Revd Hugh Lee (Oxford) thanks the Steering Committee, and hopes that something like it can continue – to complement the work of the Independent Reviewer.
Richard Burridge talks about labels – 'complementarian' and 'headship evangelical' He notes that 'multiple meaning holds the key'. And labels don't help.
Graham Parr, a layman from Chichester, proposed the motion at Chichester Diocesan Synod, which had voted against. What changed was the tone – it was less bad temepered. Trust in our clergy leaders has been transformed. And the majority has a real responsibility to the minority. He will vote in favour, and hopes we will be surprised how this can liberate us all.
Hannah Cleugh, Chaplain of my old college in Durham, notes that in Scotland there was not a Movement for the Ordination of Women, but a campaign for a whole ministry, and this is a good model to follow. Let's seek healing and enable wholeness, to bring the medicine of the gospel to a wounded world. Support this measure.
Mary Durlacher, a lay woman from Chelmsford, says that today is the first day to put the 5 principles to the test. She will vote against so that people know that there are those who can't accept this and who will remain in the church. Please, Bishops, give us a sign by appointing a conservative evangelical bishop, or rethink episcopacy.
Revd Gavin Collins from Porstmouth asks whether the provision is enough for evangelicals. There is a theology of taint – in that not one of us is untainted. The college of Bishops needs to reflect breadth and variety. And evangelicals need to listen to Scripture that all may be one. He will vote in favour.
Jacon Vince worries bout those future clergy who might have been able to offer themselves to the ministry under the Act of Synod, but will not be able to now. He will vote against.
Three last speeches, I think.
The Bishop of Chichester remembers the celebration of 20 years of women priests in St Pauls, and a gathering at the Sepulchre in Jerusalem between the Pope and Patriarch Bartholomew – where in front of the empty tomb all our differences fade away (my words). Within the traditionalist catholic wing we need to commit ourselves to the Jerusalem vision. We should offer our own riches to a tradition which we hope will now be enriched. (though he doesn't say how he will vote).
Archbishop of Canterbury: to pass this legislation will be to commit ourselves to an adventure of faith and hope. 'It will be hard work', and we need a fresh embrace of one another in love. This legislation allows us all to move forwards together…we must mean it, in how we now live and work together. The House of Bishops mean what we say. We must not understate the significance of what we can do now. The world needs to know that we love one another as Christ has loved us.
John Spence, an appointed member of the Archbishops Council, speaks about his blindness. When it struck he was consigned to a hopelessness about work. With faith, and support, and being adaptable, he became Managing Director of Lloyds. He discovered a new world, where disabled people are part of a rich diversity, not abandoned. This took trust. Such trust can be a feature of what we do. He speaks to people who may be opposed, and says that trust can lead to wonderful things. Today is a celebration of a 'coalition of consciences around the risen Christ'. Fabulous. And now I am crying again.
The Bishop of Rochester is now summing up. Then we will vote.
We normally receive votes in silence and with restraint, and we are to do so again until all the business is done.
Bishops Yes: 37 No: 2 Abs 1
Clergy Yes: 162 No: 25 Abs 4
Laity Yes: 152 No 45 Abs 5
It has passed. Crying again.
And, if you'll forgive me, I'll stop now. The rest is consequent legislation.
I am as thrilled as can be – especially for those who what laboured so ard and so long.
Thank you for reading. You've all been very nice.
§ 8 Responses to General Synod – *That* Debate
Thanks for your blogging, Jerry – and for being there with all the others working so hard to make good things happen well. Praying lots, along with so many others.
Thanks, Jeremy, it's great to have your reflections on the feeling within the synod (I'm watching the debate online). Yes, very moving moment from Adrian Vincent. The generosity is palpable. Oh lunchtime – hope it's a good one!
Thanks for your blog, Jeremy. I guess that here outside where the dog can be entertained by the ducks is a lot cooler than it would be in the public gallery.
Good luck with the afternoon session. Praying hard and following your excellent synodical synopsis.
Thank you for this, Jerry – and I am awestruck by your ability to listen and write so coherently at the same time – a real gift for language and conveying atmosphere. And what a result, at last.
The dust has settled & I'm reading this now to take in the tone of the whole debate (yesterday was hurriedly driving to a friend's just in time for the vote!) Seeing each speech in order has made me cry at the tone of grace through it all, & how far we've come since 2012. Thank you so much for this wonderful gift of blogging in this way.
I'm impressed by the process and the spirit and tone of the debate. I think we , in Sydney Diocese, in Australia, could learn a lot from your example!

I've been working on processing my stress. Some situations in my life exist and I cannot change them so I need to learn to handle it with out it eating me up inside.
My left hip has need bothering me for the last 3 days. I've been doing lots of stretching and massage and natural pain relief creams but as I am laying in bed, I remembered my friend who teaches about the 4 handy rules of the thumb and how by gently touching certain points on my hand, I can relieve discomfort and stress. So I did it and I could feel the pain in my hip literally melt away.
I wanted to share her website in case you would like to try them for yourself. For whatever circumstances you have.

I have successfully identified the most fiscally hazardous place on earth: the clearance shelf at Half-Price Books. Caveat emptor, indeed.
Rumsey draws a powerful analogy to underscore memory's materiality. The greatest memory system, she reminds us, is the universe itself. Nature embeds history in matter. When, in the early 19th century, scientists realized that they could read nature's memory by closely examining the Earth and stars, we gained a much deeper understanding of the cosmos and our place in it. Geologists discovered that the strata in exposed rock tell the story of the planet's development. Biologists found that fossilized plants and animals reveal secrets about the evolution of life. Astronomers realized that by looking through a telescope they could see not only across great distances but far back in time, gaining a glimpse of the origins of existence.
Through such discoveries, Rumsey argues, people both revealed and refined their "forensic imagination," a subtle and creative way of thinking highly attuned to deciphering meaning from matter. We deploy that same imagination in understanding and appreciating our history and culture. The upshot is that the technologies a society uses to record, store and share information will play a crucial role in determining the richness, or sparseness, of its legacy. To put a new spin on Marshall McLuhan's famous dictum, the medium is the memory.
Whether through cave paintings or Facebook posts, we humans have always been eager to record our experiences. But, as Rumsey makes clear, we've been far less zealous about safeguarding those records for posterity. In choosing among media technologies through the ages, people have tended to trade durability for transmissibility. It's not hard to understand why. Intent on our immediate needs, we prefer those media that make communication easier and faster, rather than the ones that offer the greatest longevity. And so the lightweight scroll supplants the heavy clay tablet, the instantaneous email supplants the slow-moving letter. A cave painting may last for millennia, but a Facebook post will get you a lot more likes a lot more quickly.
–Nicholas Carr, When our culture's past is lost in the cloud
A minor quibble: Carr ends his column by advising, "We should make sure that there's always a place in the world for the eloquent object, the thing itself." I know what he means by that, and it's a point I agree with. At the same time, his definition of "materiality," in this particular column, is a bit limited in scope. True, the "digital" record of a Facebook timeline is not the same as the "physical" record of, say, a diary. Both are still material. The difference is that the materiality of a Facebook timeline is scattered–into the code that structures a web site or whatever browser a person is using, into whatever hard drives or servers are tasked to archive the timeline and call it up on demand–whereas the materiality of a diary is self-contained: the book, the "thing itself."
Electronic signals, we should remember, are material things, if we understand "materiality" to refer to anything with atomic substance. But Abby Rumsey's point about the fragility of digital stuff is well-taken. Those digital archives are not only fragile in their material state (as anyone can attest whose computer has suddenly died before she could save the document she was writing), but they are, as noted elsewhere in the column, eminently mutable (as anyone can attest who has accidentally deleted the document he was revising before saving the latest change).
All of this is to emphasize the point Carr/Rumsey makes in that third paragraph: digital media are more immediately transmissible, but the meaning and form of communication are (perhaps) not as adequately preserved. The physical chassis of my laptop will likely outlive me in significant respects. The digital world housed within or accessed through it likely will not. Not in its current form. It's worth reflecting on the fact that this very blog post does, in fact, physically exist. The electronic signals that sustain and transmit it literally exist; the codes for it are stored somewhere. But these various physical materials only come together in the form of this commonplace blog when the vast machinery of the Internet (including your machine and mine) is mobilized to make it so, for the fleeting moments of access. Not unlike the various chemicals and biological materials that house me for the scant few decades I–as in I Me Myself, the being whose history belongs to this body and mind–exist on this planet.
When I die, these materials will disperse, never to come together in precisely the same form again, never housing the particular meaningfulness or resonance of my life, as I have lived it. What I think Carr and Rumsey touch on, whether they know it or not, is whether the resonance of a human soul can be housed by media. If it can, it is less likely to be in digital form. Looks like Ray Kurzweil still has his work cut out for him.
"At the beginning of Mallarmé's unfinished story, Igitur, there is the description of an empty room, in the middle of which, on a table there is an open book. This seems to me the situation of every book, until someone comes and begins to read it. Books are objects. On a table, on bookshelves, in store windows, they wait for someone to come and deliver them from their materiality, from their immobility. When I see them on display, I look at them as I would at animals for sale, kept in little cages, and so obviously hoping for a buyer. For—there is no doubting it—animals do know that their fate depends on a human intervention, thanks to which they will be delivered from the shame of being treated as objects. Isn't the same true of books? Made of paper and ink, they lie where they are put, until the moment some one shows an interest in them. They wait. Are they aware that an act of man might suddenly transform their existence? They appear to be lit up with that hope. Read me, they seem to say. I find it hard to resist their appeal. No, books are not just objects among others. …
…Buy a vase, take it home, put it on your table or your mantel, and, after a while, it will allow itself to be made a part of your household. But it will be no less a vase, for that. On the other hand, take a book, and you will find it offering, opening itself. It is this openness of the book which I find so moving. A book is not shut in by its contours, is not walled up as in a fortress. It asks nothing better than to exist outside itself, or to let you exist in it. In short, the extraordinary fact in the case of a book is the falling away of the barriers between you and it. You are inside it; it is inside you; there is no longer either outside or inside."
—Georges Poulet, "The Phenomenology of Reading" (1969)
"Books don't change your life. At most, if they are good, they can hurt and bring confusion."
-Elena Ferrante
"Truth to tell, I never felt I really belonged in the adult library, and I wonder now if that's because the loss of human space figured the even more important loss of books as stories. I was not ready to give up stories. If I didn't actually read all the children's books, I read every one I checked out—from the first word to the last. Today the only books I still read that way are mysteries. I am a proper grown-up about all the books and journals I use in my work. Like a good librarian, I order and maintain them, and even replace those that disappear. They are shelved according to topic in alphabetical order. I can almost always find what I'm looking for. But the mysteries are shelved to replicate the children's library, or at least my memory of it. I am not usually looking for any one in particular, and so I read what catches my eye. And when I want a particular book, I tear the shelves apart looking for it, happier than I care to admit wallowing in the stacks of books surrounding me."
—Linda Brodkey, "Writing on the Bias" (1994)

Salt is not only an essential mineral for life, it is also packed with healing powers and offers a load of health benefits.
We have previously explained how salt baths can help relieve the pain of arthritis but what if we told you that, when placed on a heat source, salt can help cleanse the air around you, ease coughing and even help you get a much better night's sleep? Well, let me introduce you to Himalayan salt lamps.
What are Himalayan Salt Lamps?
Himalayan salt lamps are basically large blocks of pure Himalayan Salt with a small bulb or candle inside. In recent years, these lamps have gained a lot of popularity due to their beautiful, soothing glow and their air-purifying abilities.
Salt is hygroscopic; which means that it has the natural ability to absorb moisture from the air. When a salt lamp is switched on, it attracts water molecules -as well as allergens like dust, smoke and pollen- from the surrounding environment, absorbing them into the crystal and trapping them there. The heat from the bulb then releases cleansed water vapor back into the air, improving breathing problems and reducing allergies as a result.
Another benefit attributed to Himalayan salt lamps is the generation of negative ions which help reduce headaches, low attention spans, sleepiness and that general sense of feeling unwell.
Himalayan salt lamps are also a great way to lower the potential danger of Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) emitted by electronic devices. In today's world, not a day goes by when we are not exposed to EMR and although invisible to the eye, its long-term effects can be rather serious. Constant exposure to EM radiation is known to increase stress levels, cause chronic fatigue and lower immunity.
Negative ions have the power to neutralise the effects of EMR, so keeping a salt lamp close to devices you frequently use will help protect you against their radiation.
So there you have it, if you are looking for a natural and beautiful way to enhance your mood and help you relax at the end of the day, then a Himalayan salt lamp is what you need.

Lance® has been making sandwiches for Over 100 years because they know sandwiches mean more. sandwiches mean more substance to power you through the morning, day and night. Sandwiches mean more flavors. sandwiches mean more "real." They are not some invented snack. They are tried and true. Sandwiches mean more because they are more.
We celebrate the power of the sandwich. We revel in its form. Owning this celebration of the sandwich form elevates us above the snacking crowd into a place that is more befitting, more sandwich-worthy. You see, we don't look at a sandwich as two pieces of something, with another kind of thing in the middle. No. at Lance® a sandwich is two awesomes with an incredible in the middle.
Philip L. Lance, a Charlotte food broker, gets stuck with 500 pounds of raw peanuts. Instead of backing out of his deal, Lance has a revelation: roast and sell the nuts for a nickel a bag. The freshly roasted peanuts were an immediate success and Lance was inspired to expand his line to include peanut butter.
Lance's son-in-law, Salem Van Every, becomes a partner. Around this time, Lance's wife Mary, and their two daughters spread Lance's peanut butter between two crackers and the now famous peanut butter cracker sandwich was born.
The Lance sales force grows from a single salesman, James H. Wilson, to a team of 11 men handling sales in the Carolinas.
Salem Van Every takes control of the business and the company officially comes Lance Packaging Company.
Despite the nation's virtually paralyzed economy during the Depression, Lance continues to grow and prosper, recording its first million-dollar sales year.
A classic is born. Lance begins baking its own crackers and soon after, introduces Toastchee.
Hello Snack Machines. The first Lance vending machine is placed on location, replacing the earlier "honor system" coin boxes.
It's a snacking success. By this time, Lance products are sold in 24 states and annual sales volume nears $26 million. Also growing is the extensive Lance product line.
Lance on Aisle 3. Lance adds grocery stores to its distribution process with the introduction of the Home Pack, specifically packaged products designed for supermarket sales.
Lance introduces it's Helping You Snack right low-fat, low-cholesterol snack line to promote healthier lifestyles for customers.
Adapting to change. Lance continues to adapt to new technology, a changing business environment and changing consumer tastes, resulting in improved operating efficiencies, greater innovation and exciting new factors.
Lance eliminates trans fats from its products.
Snacking Right. Lance adds whole grain cracker sandwiches and 100 calories packs to its product line.
100 years of snacking. For the past century, Lance has been fueling families across the country with delicious and innovative snacks made with what you love.
Home Run Fuel! As the official cracker sandwich of Little League Baseball and Softball, Lance is inspiring and fueling kids on and off the field.

Even now some religious groups to assume Ancient Shinto visit different parts or isolated islands of Japan to perform Shingyou(神業), an act or ritual devoted to gods, and argue that they have made a hidden god appear or that they have opened up an spiritual path. At a famous spiritual spot, some groups insist they are the first to have opened up the path. I wonder how lame the god is.

- lame 不自由な
The time is past when we turn our interest to such a "god" as needs help of humans. Once religious organizations are founded and have many believers, they need to hold an event regularly in order to raise money. It is nothing more than a performance for money held by its guru.
- be past 過ぎている
- turn A Aを向ける
- interest 関心
- humans 人間
- once S+V いったんSがVしたら
- organization 組織
- found 設立する
- relularly 定期的に
- in order to~ 〜するために
- raise money お金を集める
- nothing more than A Aに過ぎない
- guru 教組
A true Shingyo must be done by a person alone who has received a sign from God. No believers are needed who watch the Shingyo. A Shingyo doesn't work out when seen by others because the energy from others interferes with it.
- receive 受け取る
- sign 啓示
- work out うまくいく
- others 他人
- interfere with A Aを妨害する
I used to regularly visit Izumo-Daijingu(出雲大神宮)in Kameoka(亀岡), Kyoto(京都), where I got acquaitend with an elderly man. Because we had met each other several times there before, he came over and spoke to me. I was young at that time so I may have been an unusual visitor.
- used to~ 〜したものだった
- , where S+V そしてそこでSはVする
- get acquainted with A Aと知り合いになる
- elderly 初老の
- each other お互い
- several times 何回か
- speak to A Aに話しかける
- unusual 珍しい
When we were talking about shrines, he told me that he belonged to a certain religious group and that he was performing a secret Shingyo. My familiarity with Shinto rituals seemed to have made him talk about it.
- shrine 神社
- belong to A Aに属している
- a certain ある
- secret 秘密の
- familiarity 精通していること
- seem to have pp 〜したように思われる
A month later, we met each other again. He was waiting for me, not by chance. Then, he took a round stone out of a gorgeous bag and showed it to me. He explained that the stone, which he called "a soul stone of sacred gems", was found by his guru at a rocky area of a seashore and the guru gave it to him secretly.
- month 月
- wait 待つ
- by chance 偶然に
- take A out of B AをBから取り出す
- round 丸い
- stone 石
- explain 説明する
- sacred gem 宝珠
- rocky 岩の多い
- seashore 海辺
It was an artificially-shaped round, red stone as large as a golf ball. He put it on my palm, when a vision came to my mind. I saw in the vision that a man like the guru was walking around a rocky area of a seashore by himself and then hid a round stone under a big rock and the next morning he took about 15 believers to the place and performed a Shingyo and after that he ordered them to search for a stone around the place but they couldn't make it and the guru himself forgot the place he hid the stone at. I was able to see the ludicrous scene like this.
- artificially 人工的に
- shaped 形作られた
- palm 手のひら
- vision 光景
- come to one's mind 心に思い浮かぶ
- alone 一人で
- hide 隠す
- take A to B AをBに連れて行く
- order A to~ Aに〜するよう命じる
- make it うまくいく
- ludicrous 滑稽な
Then I saw that the guru did the same thing again in a different season and this time he was able to take out a round stone from under a large conspicuous rock and the people present exalted.
- season 季節
- this time 今度は
- take out A Aを取り出す
- conspicuous 目立つ
- exalt 歓喜する
When I, without telling the whole story I saw in my vision, said to the man "This stone is the one found for the second time, right?", he was very surprised. He told me that he had owned his small company and had contributed most of the travel cost for Shingyo to the guru. I wished secretly that he could leave the guru, who was obsessed by a ghost of a dead ascetic.

I'm sitting at the bar in my off-strip hotel – a Best Western dressed as the 'Mardi Gras' but hey, it was cheap. I didn't know you could smoke indoors in Vegas. It's a bizarre sight to my googling post-regulation eyes.
I can't gamble because I don't know how to. So I threw money away on the LCD slots. A few dollars.
On the way here I saw …
…A huge donkey pump drilling oil in a graveyard
…Towns with welcome signs bigger than they were
… How I've changed since the last long drive alone
And such unimaginable beauty in the dessert dollying by, which was unexpected because Vegas.com derided the drive as boring, scenically.
I feel so strongly for this Land after three years here. I realize I've become sorta American. And yet not quite. And when I'm home not quite there either. Perhaps I'm destined to really belong nowhere.
Having planned to simply stop and sleep in the cheapest place possible, I wound up having a couple of beers, throwing about $5 into the slots and ordering some food from the restaurant (which, like the hotel, is pretending to be something it's not – the menu is clearly Chili's). Anyhow, it's bedtime soon. I can't wait.

A Somali man accused of rape has been stoned to death by terror group al-Shabaab.
The 18-year-old man allegedly abused his female victim at gunpoint in the outskirts of her village, in the Lower Shabelle region.
"This shows we have the power to sentence anyone who breaks Islamic law," Sheikh Mohammed Abu Abdalla, the self-styled al-Shabaab governor for the region, told Reuters.
The insurgents added that the 28-year-old victim will receive compensation over a period of two years, and the final sum will be equivalent to a dowry payment.
Al-Shabaab, which means "The Youth", is a Somali terror group affiliated to al-Qaida. It aims to overthrow the Somali government and impose its own version of sharia law in the country.
The group recently pledged allegiance to its new leader, Sheikh Ahmed Umar, after his predecessor Ahmed Abdi Godane was killed in a US air strike in Somalia.
The insurgents controlled Mogadishu and the southern region of Somalia from 2006 until 2011, when it was defeated by African Union (AU) peacekeepers. The group is losing territories due to an ongoing offensive by Somali and AU troops.
The terrorists claimed responsibility for a four-day-long siege at Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi in 2013, in which 67 people were killed.
The attack was believed to have been carried out in retaliation to the 2011 Linda Nchi military operation, which saw the deployment of Kenyan troops in Somalia to counterattack the militants.
In October, the US Embassy in Ethiopia warned that the Somali terror group could be planning to attack the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa.

The Rocky Mountains in Colorado and Wyoming have the highest peaks and due to the semi-arid climate, have abundant snowfall with some great powder. The exceptionally high altitude means December through to February can be extremely cold, with temperatures sometimes reaching as low as -12C, although the skiing conditions remain very good. Warmer temperatures in the Spring mean more variable skiing conditions and softer, forgiving snow.
When staying here, definitely make use of the beautiful spa and amazing pool area.

Nestled in an exclusive enclave on Beaver Creek Mountain, The Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch embodies Rocky Mountain luxury and unmatched ski in/ski out access onto the pistes. With great children's facilities, this 4* hotel is ideal for the whole family.
The Ritz Carlton, Bachelor Gulch boasts a beautiful setting, with access to the vast ski area of Beaver Creek and nearby Vail. Tucked away on a quiet mountainside between Beaver Creek and Arrowhead, Bachelor Gulch is a village aptly named for its original settlers. Today, it is the hub of Beaver Creek's village-to-village ski experience. A great resort for beginners and intermediates, it is more intimate than its two neighbors and the hotel offers privacy with Rocky Mountain luxury.
Featured in Condé Nast Traveler's "World's Best Places to Stay: 2012 Gold List" and run with typical North American high standards of service and friendliness, this is a great hotel from which to enjoy the fantastic Rocky Mountain skiing. The hotel features 180 well-appointed rooms and suites, a fully equipped spa, outdoor heated pool, ski concierge and a ski nanny for children.
The lovely 'mountain lodge'-style lounge with its high ceilings and huge fireplace is an ideal place to relax after a great day on the slopes. Spago, the flagship restaurant of world-famous master chef Wolfgang Puck, sets the standard for cuisine, service and style. Its hip and sophisticated bar and lounge, with cowhide chairs and Amish-style furniture, has an etched silver bar top and clear glass display towers. The Buffalo Bar, with its 'American West' theme, offers an extensive bar menu daily, complemented by live music.
For some rest and recuperation after all that hard work on the slopes, the 21,000 square-foot spa is the place to be, with its huge outdoor pool, 4 hot tubs, jacuzzi, plunge pool, steam rooms and saunas, as well as 19 treatment rooms and a luxurious manicure/pedicure salon.
The Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch resort offers 180 guest rooms, including 40 exceptional Colorado suites–which may also be combined to create two-bedroom suites–and The Ritz-Carlton Suite. Rooms and suites have either mountain or resort views and doubles have either one king sized bed or two doubles. All the accommodations is beautifully appointed, and some of the larger rooms and suites have fireplaces and balconies. All rooms and suites have high speed WiFi access.
The popular Ski Nanny program at The Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch supervises the resort's youngest ski bunnies, ensuring they arrive on time in Beaver Creek Village for group lessons via Village transportation, simultaneously allowing parents to make first tracks. After a day on the slopes, the Nanny meets children at the Ski School drop-off point in Beaver Creek and escorts them back to the resort for Ritz Kids' "Munchies and a Movie," where parents are invited to pick up their children by 6pm. Ski Nanny services are offered to children from 5 to 12 years old.
Escape to the Forbes Four Star-rated spa, where the pure mountain air and natural surroundings inspire renewal. The 21,000 square-foot Bachelor Gulch Spa at The Ritz-Carlton features 19 treatment rooms, a luxurious manicure/pedicure salon, and men's and women's saunas that promise to create a truly unparalleled spa experience.
A cigar lounge (Vail Valley's only one) and bar with comfortable seating where guests can enjoy imported cigars, fine spirits and a Sommelier-curated wine list from around the world.
A 100 seat dining room and bar with rich wood accents serving an eclectic menu emphasising locally sourced and sustainable meats and seafood. The restaurant uses a variety of cooking techniques including a 1200-degree broiler as well as signature, house-blended seasonings.
A family friendly restaurant and bar.
Hand-crafted drinks, tasty lunch and après dining

The Forbes Four Star-rated spa is 21,000 sqft and features 19 treatment rooms and rock-lined grottos with steam, sauna, hot and cold plunge area and a co-ed rock-lined grotto with a waterfall.
State-of-the-art fitness center with great views of Beaver Creek Mountain and the Vail Valley.
Ritz-Carlton Bachelor Gulch is in amazing ski in / ski out location, between Arrowhead and Beaver Creek. It is worth bearing this in mind when choosing the property, if you wish to dine out a shuttle is required to Beaver Creek which takes about 10-15 minutes, this is offered complimentary by the hotel. Although it is in a more secluded location I quite liked this as you almost have private access to the ski lift outside of the hotel. The pool area is beautiful, right in front of the hotel you can see the skiers coming back down and you have wonderful mountain views. The Spa is amazing, possibly my favorite from the Colorado properties, with extensive facilities and built from natural materials. The overall ambiance and cosy feel with all of the wood and open fires makes you feel like you're in a chalet Lodge rather than a hotel. Make sure you dine in the new WYLD bar and restaurant, the newest addition to the hotel in December 2016.
The arrival alone to The Ritz Carlton will leave you feeling like the rich and famous, after passing through two security gates and a meandering uphill drive, you will arrive at the very private and luxurious Ritz Carlton Bachelor Gulch. You would be forgiven if you thought you had arrived at a Yellow Stone park lodge with the exposed beams and extensive stone work. All of the rooms are bright and spacious, but in my opinion you simply cannot beat the views to what looks like your very own ski resort. At the end of your day choose from either the pool deck and Jacuzzis or head to the Grotto in the spa area which is hugely popular and quite a treat - the spa here was voted number 1 spa by Travel and Leisure. The dining choices are excellent I would recommend the pizza at Spago which is to die for and at Buffalo's the chilli is HOT but great!
Amazing cuisine, well-chosen wines, impeccable service, and unique transportation options to the restaurant have made Beano's Cabin a favorite destination for years.
