Unless otherwise stated, any times quoted for despatch and delivery are to date from receipt by the Company of a written order from the Purchaser.

Without limiting any of the Company's rights whether pursuant to these Terms or at common law, payment by the Purchaser in accordance with these Terms will be the essence of the contract between the parties, and failure on the part of the Purchaser to make payment on any due date may entitle the Company to treat such failure as repudiation of the contract to recover damages for breach of contract from the Purchaser.

Q: Downgrade virtualenv to 2.7 from 3.5.3 My virtualenv is currently configured to python 3.5.0 while the package I need to use only supports 2.7. I need a way of downgrading my python runtime to 2.7 within my virtualenv.
I do have both versions available to use:
First one is in my virtualenv, second is computer-wide.
(project) me-Air:element me$ python -V
Python 3.5.0

me-Air:element me$ python -V
Python 2.7.10

A: You cannot "downgrade" virtualenv.
You will have to create a new one, you don't necessarily need to delete your current one unless you want the virtualenv to have the same name as your current one.
virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python2.7 <path/to/new/virtualenv/>
Since your problem requires them to be integrated there are many ways to do it, use subprocess to do whatever you need to with the Python 2.7 code and transfer the output back to your Python 3 code.
You could also use Rabbit MQ Queues to transfer data to and from the programs running different versions of Python.

A: Another method of pinning a virtualenv to a specific Python version is to run it via the -m flag on the Python executable. E.g.
python2 -m virtualenv ./venv

Likewise, if you wanted a Python 3 virtualenv, you'd run this:
python3 -m virtualenv ./venv

A: one the best work that i found is using "pyenv"
by using pyenv make the lower version to your global version
then make directory, go inside, use below to make a virtualenv
you can use like this:
$ python3.7 -m venv env

after that activate the env:
$ source env/bin/activate

then:
$ which python

*

*you may make the pyenv to root level, actually if you search for install pyenv using brew or others you will find

the output shows the place of python codes.
copy them and past it to the last directory that you had problem with upgrade of it.
My issue:
i upgraded my python to latest(3.8.5) but unfortunetlly jupyter-lab and pip couldnt work, so after 9 hours i did this and it worked,

Topics we got threw:

installing pyenv:
$brew install pyenv

make it root as below:
$ PATH=$(pyenv root)/shims:$PATH
$ echo 'PATH=$(pyenv root)/shims:$PATH' >> ~/.zshrc

install your python versions:
$ pyenv install 3.7.0
$ pyenv install 3.8.5

make the lower to global:
$ pyenv global 3.7.0

Do the virtualenv things, codings are ended. get to the file Copy it, go the last directory and Past and Delete the originals in it.

Chenani-Nashri tunnel of Jammu and Kashmir
Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated this tunnel in April, 2017.
This tunnel links Kashmir Valley with Jammu by an all-weather route.
This 9 km long, twin-tube, all-weather tunnel between Udhampur and Ramban in Jammu & Kashmir is not only India's longest highways tunnel but also Asia's longest bi-directional highways tunnel.
Built at an elevation of 1200 metres on one of the most difficult Himalayan terrains, the tunnel cuts the travel time between Jammu and Srinagar by two hours, bypassing about 41 kms of road length.
It also ensures an all-weather passage on a route that often sees heavy traffic jams and disruptions due to landslides, snow, sharp curves, breakdown of vehicles and accidents.
The tunnel is a part of the 286-km-long four-laning of the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway.
The tunnel has an efficient, transverse ventilation system. There are inlets bringing fresh air at 8 metre intervals and outlet for exhaust every 100 metres.
There is also a fully-integrated control system with ventilation, communication, power supply, incident detection, SOS call box and fire fighting.
Fitted with intelligent traffic mechanism, the tunnel has fully automatic smart control and no human intervention will be required for its operations.
The tunnel is also equipped with advanced scanners to ward off any security threat. Very few tunnels in the world have this kind of fully integrated tunnel control.
Consider the following statements about Chenani – Nashri tunnel
1.This tunnel links Kashmir Valley with Jammu by an all-weather route.
2.It is Asia's longest bi-directional highways tunnel.
3.This tunnel will be renamed after Bharatiya Jana Sangh founder Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyay.
Which of the statement(s) given above is/are correct?
Right Ans : 1 and 2 only

Living like a tourist: Can acetone be considered food?
Ok readers: I need your help with this one because I am honest to goodness dumbfounded. I made Kasha tonight. I didn't know what it was, but it was in the international section and it looked like a grain. I like rice, couscous, buckwheat, and everything else I thought to compare it to. So I bought it.
In accordance with my way of cooking, I took a liberal approach to the instructions, and I used my artistic license to leave out some ingredients (namely the egg). The meal turned out to be a grainy version of paint thinner. It smelled, tasted and felt like something from a construction site. The smell was definitely the worst though and it tainted my Tupperware almost against further use.
Now, I am used to my creations not turning out exactly as I would want them, so I am also accustomed to "fixing" my dishes by adding various vegetables, sauces, spices, condiments or in truly bad scenarios, all of the above. Usually, I can turn into something that I can at least stand to eat. I hate wasting food. This scenario, however, was the latter, and despite olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, parsley and carrots, it still reeked of a type of acetone.
I am convinced that I did something wrong. Wikipedia reassures me that it is, in fact, buckwheat (buckwheat groats to be exact), and that it is considered edible. It is apparently also a common food in Eastern European cuisine. For my Serbian friends, they suggest that it is called каша or kaša.
So my question to any of you out there who has cooked, tasted and/or loved this dish: is the egg that vital to its proper outcome? Or what do you fathom I did to it to change a grain into a chemical? ... I don't particularly care for this magic power.

We've long known that Peter Som made the genius move of reupholstering a vintage Smilow WAC33 chair with leopard print as his home continues to be featured by different design publications. But it wasn't until this story in Architectural Digest's new publication "Clever" that we found out he got the chair at...Housing Works! Nice find, Peter. Read the full story here.

What a devious way to vanish a coin!
Simply borrow a quarter, and place it inside this small bank.
Shake the bank so that your spectators can hear the coin rattling inside.
On your command, however, the rattling stops abruptly.
The coin has vanished from the bank!
The coin can either disappear forever, or you can use another trick, like the Magic Coin Box or the Coin Nest, to make the coin reappear again.
You can make a complete routine out of the two tricks.
For a professional version of this effect, see the Rattle Box.
This effect is also called the Devil Coin Bank.
You supply the borrowed coin.
May be packaged as INCREDIBLE COIN VANISHER BANK or DEVILS COIN BANK.


First think of an ordinary dental bridge that fills a large gap between natural teeth. A dental implant bridge is similar. The "bridge is supported by two or more dental implants instead of natural teeth. An implant-supported bridge is used when the expanse of the bridge can no longer be supported by your natural teeth. The bridge plays the role of filling in the gap of missing teeth but also disperses stress placed on dental implants.
At BetterDental in Apex we start with a consultation and x-rays to make sure you jaw bone and gums are in excellent health to begin the implant process. The implant base is made of titanium and resembles a screw. It is surgically placed in the jawbone and then a porcelain crown is added. A porcelain bridge that is color matched and shaped to look like your real teeth and connects to the implants to form a bridge. They are made of porcelain attached and fused to a substructure of metal.
The average cost for a dental implant partial or bridge is between $3,500 and $8,000. Higher cost is reserved for more complicated cases where many teeth are missing, the jaw bone density is compromised or previous trauma complicates the procedure.
If the implants will be placed next to natural teeth, the natural teeth and surrounding gums must be in good health. If you don't have enough bone to place and support the dental implants, the supporting bone can be built up using bone augmentation or grafting before the actual implant procedure begins.
Some people don't even know these options are available, but they can give you the peace of mind to go and take care of your oral health. Sedation is often covered by insurance when administered for dental implant procedures. Talk to one of our dentist today.

Elizabeth Taylor White Diamonds Perfume Video Review


From a young age i remember having a very idealistic view on how a grown ups life should be.
I used to think of a 30 year old as...well old, with their head together and a fully fledged grown up.
The closer i get towards this momentous number...the more i realise little Tiffany was deluded, and very mislead.
Now ive had a fun, good life so far, which has involved lots of lovely holidays to my beloved USA...but on reflection i am nowhere near where i thought or even where id like to be at my ripe age of 28 (29 in two months time) and i wonder if you have ever felt the same.
I do not own property, i do not have a huge saving pot and im single with no children. Im an old soul and truely believed that i would have all of these things in check by the time i was 30.
I guess the aim of this post is to say- its ok- i think...I mean- like any normal person...some days i feel this is not ok and spend a day wallowing in self pity- but for the majority of the time i am at peace with this and believe something good, is and must be around the corner for me.
Settling down is a big deal for me as im a traditionalist- those of you that arent probably will see this post as not a big deal at all. For me my main wish in life is to find my soul mate and enjoy making memories and a home with them.
I've realised that a lot of my age group are in a similar situation- from chatting to blog friends etc. and that helps me to see that i shouldn't be so hard on myself- believe me ive treated myself as a failure for a while now.
So what have i done to help myself- the main change and help for me has been surrounding myself with amazing friends. I value them more than anything in this world...saying this- its also helped me sieve out some not so good pals. Ill talk more about this in my trimming the fat post scheduled for this month!
planned for you- not much.
Happiness is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it will elude you. But the moment you turn your attention to other things; it will come and sit softly on your shoulder.
I hope you dont mind these posts as i find them theraputic to write and helpful to look back on- after all i do treat this as my online diary also. I also hope that maybe it has helped if you are feeling in a similar position? When i was feeling crap i scowered the net for similar storied to relate to.

Palytoxin poisoning
Back to Poisons
Palytoxin poisoning: marine aquarium safety
Some Zoanthid coral species popular with marine aquarium enthusiasts can contain Palytoxin. This toxin is dangerous to your health and being exposed to it can have potentially life-threatening consequences.
Palytoxin poisoning emergency
Anyone who becomes ill after handling marine coral should seek urgent medical attention by going to the nearest emergency department or medical clinic.
If you suspect a person has been exposed to Palytoxin, contact the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 for first aid advice and explain if it is necessary to seek immediate medical attention.
In an emergency always call 000 for an ambulance
What is Zoanthid coral?
Zoanthid corals are soft corals known as colony-forming anemones. These decorative ornamental corals are commonly called 'button polyps', 'sun polyps' or 'zoas'.
Species of Zoanthid coral (for example Palythoa species and Zoanthus species) can contain a highly toxic, naturally-occurring and potentially lethal substance known as Palytoxin.
Zoanthid corals are often recommended to new marine aquarium owners because they are considered to be relatively easy to keep. Health risks associated with keeping soft corals in home aquariums are often unrecognised or underestimated by aquarium enthusiasts and suppliers because there are limited cases documented to raise awareness.
How do you know if a coral is poisonous?
It is not possible to tell which Zoanthid corals contain Palytoxin when deciding whether to keep them in aquariums. While it is possible that people may not intend to buy Zoanthids – it is important to remember that other types of coral or any 'live rock' bought from aquarium suppliers may unintentionally contain Zoanthids.
Marine aquarium owners should always presume Palytoxin is present and take appropriate precautions when handling corals to avoid being exposed to this toxin.
Protect yourself and your family
Keep general handling of corals to a minimum.
Do not handle coral with your bare hands. Barrier protection for example protective eyewear and gloves should always be worn when coral is handled. Latex gloves break easily when handling sharp rocks so long thick rubber industrial gloves that protect your hands and forearms are recommended.
Always handle coral under water. Bag the live rock plus water at a distance from aquarium lighting (the warming effect in shallow water can trigger Palytoxin release) while wearing protective equipment and seal the bag before removing from the aquarium,
Monitor aquarium water levels closely to make sure coral surface is completely submerged at all times (particularly with evaporation under aquarium lights)
Avoid any coral maintenance activity that can potentially produce aerosols for example breaking, cutting, scrubbing (even with cold water), scraping, brushing and using boiling water or chemicals.
Avoid placing coral under powerful halide lights when out of the water. Halide lights used to sustain and raise new coral colonies can cause heat stress in corals that are out of the water causing rapid release of Palytoxin.
Avoid splashing and contaminating nearby surfaces when changing tank water, and dispose of aquarium water carefully as it can contain Palytoxin.
Remember that Palytoxin can travel some distance in water aerosols.
Be aware that Palytoxin is heat stable – heating does not remove the toxin but it can be deactivated using bleach.

How could you be exposed to Palytoxin?
Palytoxin poisoning is relatively rare, with most cases occurring after eating contaminated seafood. Fatalities in these circumstances have been reported.
Exposure to Palytoxin can also occur by direct contact with intact or damaged skin, by direct contact with eyes or by inhaling aerosols or steam vapours associated with aquariums or the natural marine environment.
Zoanthid corals readily proliferate, become overgrown and colonise other corals; forming large, tightly attached colonies that are difficult to thin out. This increases the potential for aquarium enthusiasts to be exposed to Palytoxin.
Most aquarium-related cases occur as a result of skin exposure after prolonged handling through cuts on hands or inhalation of coral dust, steam vapours or water droplets and aerosols while cleaning, separating, growing/propagating, collecting, transporting mechanically removing or eradicating over-growing corals by pouring boiling water on live rock as well as cleaning home marine aquariums.
Symptoms of Palytoxin poisoning
Although poisonings are relatively rare it is important to be aware that Palytoxin poses a significant risk to human safety due to its extreme toxicity.
Symptoms can occur and progress rapidly within minutes to hours after handling coral.
Severity depends on how long people have been exposed, the distance they were from the location where coral was being handled, the route of exposure and the presence of cuts or abrasions on hands (Palytoxin can easily pass through a skin wound and reach the bloodstream).
Flu-like symptoms: such as coughing, fever, chills, sore throat, headache, muscle aches, chest pain, respiratory distress.
Skin symptoms: rash (hives), itching, numbness, dermatitis.
Respiratory symptoms: wheezing, tight chest, shortness of breath, runny nose, fluid in the lungs.
Gastrointestinal symptoms: abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea.
Ocular symptoms, conjunctivitis, photophobia, blurred vision, corneal ulceration.
Neurological symptoms: fatigue, dizziness, speech disturbance, bitter metallic taste, tremors, tingling or numbness of extremities.
Muscle symptoms: pain, weakness, cramps, spasms.
Cardiac effects: irregular, slow, fast hear rate, cardiac muscle damage, low or high blood pressure
Severe cases report muscle breakdown, kidney failure, coma and death from cardiac or respiratory failure. There is no specific treatment of antidote for Palytoxin poisoning with medical treatment limited generally to supportive care.

Pictures of the Antitypical Priesthood
By Herald Magazine on September 1, 2020
A Royal Priesthood
"But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. For you once were not a people, but now you are the people of God; you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy" (1 Peter 2:9,10, NAS).
The Scriptures reveal that the work of the kingdom will be done through a
spiritual priesthood. To illustrate the function of this priesthood, God used several Old Testament types. The most frequent is found in Israel's priesthood, which served in the tabernacle and later in the temple. This
priesthood has been covered in a previous article and will not be detailed here. However, other aspects of the spiritual priesthood provide additional lessons.
Little is known about Melchizedek. He is simply described as a king of Salem and a priest of the Most High God. He met Abram and his men after they delivered Lot from captivity, giving them bread and wine. Melchizedek then blessed Abram, saying, "Blessed be Abram of the Most High God, possessor of heaven and earth: And blessed be the Most High God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all" (Genesis 14:19-20).
His interaction and blessing of Abram imply a connection between the antitypical priesthood and the fulfillment of the promise made to Abraham. In fact, Jesus and the church are collectively described as the seed of Abraham (Galatians 3:29). So, it will be through the work of this great spiritual priesthood that the Abrahamic promise will become a reality.
The Psalmist foretold of the work of Jesus and the Church as this great priesthood. He also reveals that God swore an oath to develop this priesthood on which the Abrahamic promises were based. "The LORD has sworn and will not repent, thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek" (Psalms 110:4). The Apostle Paul confirmed the identity of
the antitypical Melchizedek: "But son though he was, he had to prove the meaning of obedience through all that he suffered. Then, when he had been proved the perfect son, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who should obey him, being designated by God Himself as high priest 'after the order of Melchizedek'" (Hebrews 5:8, Phillips).
Greater than the Aaronic Priesthood
Here, Paul draws the picture of a priesthood greater than that which served under the Law. "If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron? For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law" (Hebrews 7:11-13). This new priesthood could accomplish something the old could not. It could bring about perfection in the subjects it served.
He continues to explain why this is true. "For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself" (Hebrews 7:26,27). Unlike the imperfect offerings provided under the Law, Jesus' offering was perfect and never needed to be repeated. As the apostle explained, this better offering provided a "better hope" by which we could "draw nigh to God" (Hebrews 7:19). He proceeds to explain that as head of the Melchizedek priesthood, Jesus would administer a "better covenant" because he now sat at the right hand of God and would be the great Mediator of that better covenant (Hebrews 8:1,6). The antitypical Melchizedek priesthood provides a better sacrifice, a perfect mediator and this makes a better covenant than could be given under the Law. The perfection of this arrangement results in a grander hope of eternal life for all mankind.
Priest and King
Melchizedek had a unique role in being both a priest of God and a king. But why will the antitypical priesthood also have the position of king? The reason may be illustrated in the book of Ezra. There we find two individuals working together to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem, Joshua the High Priest and Zerubbabel. Zerubbabel is a Babylonian name meaning "born in Babylon." He was appointed by Cyrus as governor of Judah and commissioned to rebuild the temple. Though not actually a king, he wielded authority as king, acting on behalf of Cyrus, ruler of the Persian Empire
(see Ezra 3:2-3, 8).
When the foundation of the temple was finally laid there was great rejoicing. But there was also opposition from the people of the land. Their offer to assist in the building disguised their real motive. Their letters and false accusations to Cyrus convinced him to order
the building stopped.
This opposition was prophesied by the prophet Zechariah revealing that Joshua the high priest would be the special target of Satan. "And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him. And the LORD said unto Satan, 'The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?' Now Joshua [the high priest] was clothed with filthy garments and stood before the angel" (Zechariah 3:1-3).
Filthy Garments
When Satan stood to "resist" Joshua, the word can also be translated as "accuse" (H7853). It describes a tactic used by Satan, as he is later called "the accuser of our brethren" (Revelation 12:10). Satan's specific accusations against Joshua may have related to the filthy garments he wore. But God defended him, saying, "'Take away the filthy garments from him." And unto him [Joshua] he said, 'behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment' " (Zechariah 3:3, 4).
Joshua's filthy garments represent his personal sins. The adversary often whispers to those who want to serve God that their sinfulness makes them unworthy to serve such a holy being. He uses the same approach against any who hope to be part of the royal priesthood, suggesting they can never live up to God's standards, so why even try. But God knows our condition and has provided for it. Just as Joshua was given clean garments, prospective members of the royal priesthood are given a "robe of righteousness" (Isaiah 61:10). It can be overwhelming to consider being part of this priesthood. But God knows our frame (Psalms 103:14) and has made the necessary provisions for fallen members of the race to be part of a perfect priesthood (see 1 Corinthians 10:13).
Under normal circumstances, Israel would have perished in the fiery experiences of captivity, or at best, been assimilated. However, God
preserved them and was now in the process of re-establishing their priesthood. The royal priesthood being formed in the Gospel Age
has gone through fiery persecution and is likewise "a brand plucked from the fire" (Zechariah 3:2). But that fire has worked to develop a
merciful and sympathetic group of individuals that will minister as priests of God. When any face the accusation that they are unworthy of
serving God, the proper response is to appreciate that it is the merit of Christ that makes one worthy.
Holiness to the Lord
Joshua, then, fittingly represents the priestly aspect of the Christ. The Prophet Zechariah said, "Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So, they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments" (Zechariah 3:5). This indicates that the garments he was provided were garments of the high priest. To the mitre was attached a golden plate with the in scription, "Holiness to the LORD" (see Exodus 28:36-39). This defined his role as one
devoted to bringing honor to God in all he did.
An interesting connection between the offices of priest and king is shown by the Prophet Haggai, a contemporary of that period. "In that day, saith the LORD of Hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the LORD, and will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the LORD of Hosts" (Haggai 2:23). Zerubbabel would be made "as a signet." A signet was a signature ring used by kings to seal letters with their own special mark. This is the same word (H2368) used to describe the engraving of the golden plate worn by the high priest. It was "like the engraving of a signet" (Exodus 28:36).
This links the work of Joshua and Zerubbabel. The function of both offices is intended to display the holiness of God. This explains how God's laws, administered by the kingly office of Christ, will be characterized by righteous and noble principles. When the priest wore the inscription "Holiness to the Lord" on his forehead he, too, was proclaiming that his
role in religious training would reflect God's holiness. Every doctrinal and moral teaching of Christ will contain the purity and sanctity of our Creator. Both offices will work towards the same goal. By extolling the holiness of God, the excellent principles by which He lives will be honored and taught to their human subjects by this wonderful reigning class.
This idea of a signet is also conveyed on a personal level in the Church. Representing the holiness of God to others will have a profound effect on each individual. This is described by the Apostle Paul. "Who hath also sealed us and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts" (2 Corinthians 1:22). Under the influence of God's spirit, each member is made holy and pure. This character imprint is God's seal, His guarantee that those so marked will be part of the antitypical priest and king. Only by being so imprinted can any be prepared to serve.
The Branch
In the vision of Zechariah, God also said, "Hear now, O Joshua the High Priest … I will bring forth my servant the Branch" (Zechariah 3:8). Joshua undoubtedly understood this Branch to be Zerubbabel. Restoring the
worship of God in the completed temple was a work that Joshua could not accomplish alone. Zerubbabel brought with him the authority of Cyrus. With this higher authority the work was guaranteed. There were now two individuals selected to rebuild the temple. This passage symbolically alludes to Jesus, who is also described as the branch which comes from the
line of David (Isaiah 11:1). He is referred to in similar terms as the root and offspring of David (Revelation 22:16).
This dual authority pictured in Joshua and Zerubbabel is described in Zechariah 4. There the prophet was given a vision of a large golden lampstand with seven lamps and seven pipes emanating from a central bowl. But this lampstand had a peculiar feature. Two olive trees fed oil directly into the main bowl. The vision was meant to encourage Zerubbabel to finish the work of rebuilding the temple after a long delay. "This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, 'Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of Hosts. Who art thou, O great mountain?
Before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it'" (Zechariah 4:6,7). Zerubbabel would be guided by the spirit of God. A great mountain would be no obstacle to this God-given task.
But the vision was meant to convey a larger lesson. A Gospel Age connection to Zechariah's vision is provided in the Book of Revelation (see Revelation 11:1-13). There, two olive trees are shown to feed two candlesticks and are described as God's two witnesses, understood
to mean the Old and New Testaments. They would prophesy 42 months clothed in sackcloth, a symbol of mourning. The word of God is described as mourning because during the 42 months of papacy's reign, truth was cast to
the ground (see Daniel 8:12). For 1,260 years there was great opposition to the building of a spiritual temple. This restraint of truth limited the work of the holy Spirit. But, in the end, the two witnesses "ascended to heaven" (verse 12), a fitting description that after 1799 AD, the authority of the Bible would be reinstated. This ascendancy will finally accomplish the work of completing the spiritual temple. And so, the prospect of completing the work of the Gospel Age is similar to the purpose of the vision given to Zerubbabel.
With the encouragement of Zechariah and the older prophet Haggai, the work which had stopped for many years was finally resumed. "And the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel … governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua … the High Priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the LORD of hosts, their God" (Haggai 1:14).
Joshua Crowned
Zechariah 6 provides another vision confirming the work of Zerubbabel and Joshua in their unique relationship. "The word of the LORD also came to me saying, 'Take an offering from the exiles … where they have arrived from Babylon. And take silver and gold, make an ornate crown, and set it on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Then say to him, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, "Behold, a man whose name is Branch, for He will branch out from where He is; and He will build the temple of the LORD." Yes, it is He who will build the temple of the LORD, and He who will bear the honor and sit and rule on His throne. Thus, He will be a priest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two offices'" (Zechariah 6:9-13 NAS).
A very unusual event is being described. A high priest is being given a kingly crown and a governor is made a priest on his throne. This was previously an unthinkable concept in Israel because priests did not sit on thrones and rulers did not serve as priests. This typical event once again illustrates that Joshua and Zerubbabel (the Branch) both represent the Messiah and depict the dual role of Christ.
Why a Priest and a King?
The function of a priest is to bring harmony between God and man by providing atoning sacrifices and instructing others how to serve God acceptably. He will have accomplished the work of providing atoning sacrifices and prepared the way for other acceptable offerings, as shown in the tabernacle sacrifices. This vital role will include the church, whose experiences in this life will have taught her, through firsthand experience, the lessons that will be shared with mankind.
A king, however, is generally involved in civil matters of state including defense when necessary and execution of the law. Each of these roles has a fulfillment in Christ. The work of reconciliation requires both sacrificing, accomplished during the Gospel Age, and mediation, the work of the Millennial reign. But in addition, the civil responsibilities of kingship will be important. There will be laws that govern the orderly operation of society. Logistics and planning will be done with great skill and efficiency. A governmental structure will be put in place that will meet the needs of every individual. No one will be excluded who wants to share in the blessings. Every citizen will come to appreciate that man's past attempts to govern themselves was woefully inadequate when compared to a government overseen by heaven and administered by godly servants. Our efforts to understand the complexities in governing the world are meager at best. But we trust that our all-wise God will create a society dedicated to holiness with the help of the Christ, both a priest and a king.

Its about time I made one of these. I was just sticking my mat in a lululemon bag. It didn't fit in the bag, so I'd zip the top as far as it would go with my mat sticking out the top. And then slinging the bag strap diagonally across my chest while riding my bike to class. It was awkward. Every time I'd adjust the bag while biking, I would say to myself that I needed to make something functional. I waffled back and forth between a strappy carrier or an all out yoga mat bag and I settled on a strappy carrier.
Making this was really simple, I don't know what took me so long to actually make it. I have been hoarding Echino fabric for far too long, with no real idea what to make from it. The fabric is heavier than regular quilting cottons, and its almost as stiff as canvas. It has just enough structure for the strappy carrier without having to add any interfacing.
Following this tutorial, I threw it together in about an hour Friday evening. Well, all except the Velcro. The only Velcro I had in my sewing supplies is the sticky kind, and I'm positive that my sew-in Velcro is in a box somewhere in Miles's closet. He was asleep when I stitched this up, so I put it aside. Well, I ended up sewing in the sticky velcro because I just can't find the other stuff. Which didn't work out so well. The thread kept sticking to the needle and not actually sewing. I had to re-sew parts of it after cutting off some thread and re-threading the needle. I got it all stitched down eventually, but the seams are a bit of a hot mess.
Oh. If you decide to follow the linked tutorial, measure the circumference of your yoga mat. Mine is much smaller than the one in the tutorial and I ended up having to adjust the straps before attaching the Velcro. I just folded them in and stitched the strap to itself to shorten them.
Gotta love the husband support! 😎 Thinking about yoga myself, when I can find extra hours in my day!
Yeah, JJ is pretty great! And you should definitely try yoga. It's made a huge difference in my life.

Borders, Nations and Conflict (Spring 2014)
Matthew Brooks • Spring 2014
The Spring 2014 issue of inFOCUS has as its theme "Borders, Nations and Conflict." 1914 was the last time the world's major empires were fully in control of their disparate possessions. By the time WWI ended, the Ottoman (1299-1923) and Habsburg Empires (1526-1918) had expired, and the French (1605-1960) and British (1603-1949) Empires were mortally wounded.
In the Middle East, countries emerged that crossed traditional tribal and ethnic lines, producing anomalies with few or no historic roots within their borders, or affinity among the people residing there. The borders, ideologies, and loyalties that emerged then remain the source of ethnic, religious, and nationalist tension—and warfare. Now the region is changing again and, as Major General (res.) Amos Gilad tells readers in his interview, "The lines in the atlas do not exist on the ground."
Our authors explain the region as it is, not as the maps say it should be: Gabriel Scheinmann gives us the starting point. Clare Lopez re-defines the arc of countries north of Israel and Sherkoh Abbas, Robert Sklaroff, and Joseph Puder make a case for righting an historic wrong for the region's Kurds. Harold Rhode parses tribal, religious and ethnic loyalties that are far more relevant than national borders. Simon Henderson and Emanuele Ottolenghi look at the Sunni Arab States and Iran respectively—facing off over the waterway they can't even call by the same name. Yoram Schweitzer, Shlomo Brom, and Shani Avita assess Egypt's anti-jihadist policies in Sinai. General Gilad and Ofir Haivry see military and political opportunities—as well as risks—for Israel. Stephen Bryen sees the same for the United States.
