St Mellion () is a village and rural civil parish in east Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. The parish is about  south of Callington and is in the St Germans Registration District. To the north, the parish is bordered by Callington and St Dominick parishes, to the east and south by Pillaton parish, and to the west by St Ive parish.

The population in the 2001 Census was 377. The 2011 Census recorded that this had increased to 383.

The parish name is taken from St Melaine, a 6th-century bishop of Rennes, Brittany.

Parish church
The Church of England parish church of St Melanus is in the village of St Mellion (the largest settlement in the parish) at . The older part of the church is the south side which was built in the 14th century whereas the north side is of the late 15th century and was built of granite. There is a series of monuments to the Corytons: these include a brass to Peter Coryton and his wife and 24 children, 1552, and two elaborate sculptural compositions to William Coryton, 1651, and Sir William, 1711, both in a style characteristic of the early 17th century.

Notable sites
St Mellion is also the location of Pentillie, a 17th-century castle and estate which has been the seat of the Coryton family since 1698. They had previously had an estate at West Newton Ferrers, also in St Mellion. The manor of Newton Ferrers (Niuuetona, Niweton, Niwetone) is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. Part of the manor was held by Reginald from Robert, Count of Mortain. There was half a hide of land and land for six ploughs. There were two ploughs, three serfs, three villeins, 12 smallholders, 12 acres of pasture, five cattle, 40 sheep and 10 goats. The value of this part was £1 though it had formerly been worth £1 10s.

The other part of the manor was also held by Reginald from Robert, Count of Mortain. There was one hide of land and land for eight ploughs. There were 10 villeins and 20 smallholders with one plough, three serfs, half a league of pasture, woodland two leagues long and one furlong wide. The value of this part was £1 10s. though it had formerly been worth £2.

The present house was built about 1686–95 (these dates being on the gatepiers) for Sir William Coryton. It is a plain granite mansion of two storeys: the centre is of seven bays and there are two projecting wings of two bays each. It is the earliest Cornish mansion in the classical style (i.e. with no Tudor survivals). Two thirds of the house were gutted by fire in 1940; of this some has been rebuilt while the rest remains as a ruin. The St Mellion golf course is also in the parish.

Crocadon Quarry, 200 metres east of St Mellion village, is a Site of Special Scientific Interest for its geology.

River Ave. Blues » Also absent from Stadium celebration: Roger Clemens
Also absent from Stadium celebration: Roger Clemens
September 23, 2008 by Joe Pawlikowski 34 Comments
Taking a look at 2008 draftee Brett Marshall
Stealing from the stadium
One of the notable stories from yesterday was the absence of Joe Torre and Don Mattingly from the pre-game ceremonies on Sunday. Since they're both with the Dodgers, it's understandable why they did not appear in person. Donnie got mentioned along with the first basemen, though not announced by Kay or Sterling, and Torre's name wasn't uttered. Yet there was another Yankee from the dynasty years who went unnoticed last night: Roger Clemens. Why would the Yankees snub a player who is only one year removed from his last stint in Pinstripes?
They were afraid the fans would boo him.
"They didn't want boos to be the last memory of Roger at the Stadium," a source familiar with preparations for the last game told the Daily News.
While I'm not one for blindly trusting an anonymous Daily News source, this seems likely. Most people I know aren't too fond of Clemens right now, be it because of his breakdown late last year, or because of his grandstanding amid steroid accusations and perjury charges. So there had to be legitimate concern over the reception he'd receive from fans.
When asked, Brian Cashman wiped his hands of the situation:
"Roger was a great Yankee and did a tremendous job here and we're proud of the work he did here," general manager Brian Cashman said Monday. "I can't speak to why he wasn't involved in the video tribute. I wasn't part of any meetings.
"There's a lot of controversy surrounding him right now, but that doesn't change the kind of person he was when he was here. He's special in my book, whether they showed a video clip of him or not."
Team spokesman Howard Rubenstein also attempted to defuse the situation, saying that the snub of Torre and Clemens was not intentional:
"A lot of great Yankees were not mentioned," Yankee spokesman Howard Rubenstein said of Clemens and Torre. "There was no slight intended and perhaps both of them should have been mentioned during the celebration."
Sorry, but I'm not buying that one bit. To lump Clemens and Torre in with Yankees not mentioned just isn't fair. Say what you will about Clemens, and I know there will be differing opinions, but you can't just say that some people weren't mentioned as an explanation for Joe Torre. And yes, perhaps both should have gotten a mention for their contributions to multiple World Championships.
Honestly, do you think that the fans would have booed had Clemens been present, or even recognized? I'm not sure that would have been the case. Fans might hold contempt towards the man, but Sunday night was not one rife for booing. I assume fans would have clapped out of respect for the man and his achievements. Booing would have just been out of place.

Each year 400+ vendors and 50k attendees descend on San Francisco to network and learn about the current and future trends in security that they can apply in their organizations. While you may have your own priorities, it is often hard to understand the offerings of the hundreds of vendors you will meet with and, surely hear from, the week after the event.
To help you understand Onapsis's key offerings, the next few weeks until RSAC we will be highlighting the key areas that Onapsis can help your organization secure the information and processes that matter most. We will have numerous opportunities at RSAC to benefit from educational information to take with you into the coming year to help prioritize security projects.
The below five topics are key trends that we have identified from our customers, partners and internal research teams that we will discuss at this year's conference and will enable you with the information you need to secure your organization's core.
ERP applications and why you need to focus on them. ERP applications run the business, and yet, organizations are still relying on traditional security methods to secure them. Based on the advancements in insider threats and pivoting attacks, if you aren't focused on securing the core of your business, nothing else matters in your security practice. Visit us at our booth, #5464, to learn more about why ERP application security should be a priority for you in 2019.
Making security an enabler in complex cloud migrations. The recent CSA Cloud Security survey highlights some key findings and misconceptions companies have while migrating their ERP applications to the cloud. Meet with our experts at RSA to learn how to migrate in phases, ensuring stability and security each step, whether using hybrid, public or private clouds. And if you are attending the CSA Summit on Monday, join Onapsis's CTO, JP Perez-Etchegoyen, as he shares his expertise on the discussion panel: The Approaching Decade of Disruptive Technologies.
Digital Transformation - Protect what matters. Every organization is in the middle of some sort of data or digital transformation project, but how does security, especially for your ERP systems, play a role? Stop by our booth to talk to our experts about projects you are planning or more information on how-to migrate quicker, while maintaining security and compliance.
Security hygiene and how your organization aligns to an ERP security maturity model. Onapsis will be hosting our fourth annual CISO Roundtable at RSA this year with industry experts as our moderators. Join myself, Mario Chiock, Fellow and CISO Emeritus at Schlumberger and Jason Fruge, CISO at Fossil for an interactive discussion on the stages of maturity you should aim towards when securing ERP systems and how to get there.
How common are ERP breaches? Join our CTO, JP Perez-Etchegoyen during his theater session, "Dissecting ERP Breaches: They're More Common Than You Know" to learn about how ERP breaches are more common than you may think. Hear real life examples of forensics assignments the Onapsis Research Labs has completed when an organization's SAP or Oracle system has been breached.
We hope to see you at the show this year. You can check out all our offerings on our website and if you are interested in learning more, please schedule a meeting with us in San Francisco!

Asbestos News Roundup – January 2019
HomeAsbestos News Roundup – January 2019
Asbestos is a deadly substance that was formerly used widely in the construction industry, amongst others, before being banned in the UK in 1999. It is thought that millions of homes, schools, hospitals, workplaces and public buildings in the UK still contain asbestos, if they were constructed before the ban. If inhaled, asbestos fibres can cause irreparable damage to the victim's lungs and respiratory system, but it often takes decades for any symptoms to show. Asbestos exposure can cause a range of health conditions, including an aggressive form of cancer, called mesothelioma, which is often untreatable by the time it is diagnosed, and usually proves fatal. We have compiled a roundup of some of the ways in which asbestos has been making the news in January 2019.
'Fake' cigarettes, found and seized in the UK, have been found to contain a number of dangerous substances, including asbestos. These cigarettes are usually packaged in a similar way to well-known brands, but are counterfeit and imported to the UK illegally, costing an estimated £2 billion a year in unpaid duty. Due to the nature of asbestos, and the damage that it can do to the lungs and respiratory system, inhaling from cigarettes that contain this substance could have dire health consequences. To help deter this trade, the Local Government Association is calling for larger fines to be imposed on those found selling these fake cigarettes.
In relation to the ongoing problem of asbestos in our schools, an issue that we have previously raised, the BBC has reported that nearly a quarter of schools in England have not told the government the extent of the asbestos within their buildings, or how they are managing this dangerous substance and keeping children and staff safe from exposure. The Department for Education (DfE) started collecting the data in 2018, but despite extending the deadline several times, only 77% of schools have yet provided the information requested. The deadline has been extended again, until 15th February 2019, to allow the remaining schools to respond, but the Public Accounts Committee has called for those schools to be "named and shamed" for their lack of response to what could give rise to a significant risk to the health of pupils, staff and visitors.
A former carpenter from Burton died as a result of asbestos exposure 50 years ago, a recent inquest heard. Mr Timothy Swift was thought to have been exposed to asbestos between 1967 and 1969 when he worked as a carpenter in the vicinity of others who cut asbestos sheets. However, he did not start to show signs of mesothelioma until the spring of 2018 and sadly died only months later, in November 2018.
It has been alleged that a pile of asbestos waste in Greater Manchester was left unattended and unresolved for a period of six months because two neighbouring councils could not agree on whose responsibility it was. The asbestos waste was dumped by fly-tippers in an area that straddles the boroughs of Bury and Salford and is said to have been first reported to the authorities in August 2018. However, it is alleged that Salford Council insisted that the problem was for Bury Council to resolve, and Bury Council responded by confirming that the waste was in Salford and was therefore not their responsibility. Both councils now state that they have removed any items containing asbestos from the vicinity.
If you, or a loved one, are diagnosed with any kind of asbestos-related illness, it can often come as a total shock. If you are unsure where to go for advice and practical support, we can help.
Here at Dedicated Accident Solicitors, we can offer free initial legal advice if you are thinking of making a compensation claim for asbestos exposure, either for yourself or on behalf of a loved one who has sadly passed away in recent times. We can also help to point you in the right direction for other support services to help after an asbestos-related condition diagnosis.

When film historians look back on "Magic Mike," based on the real-life male-stripper exploits of Channing Tatum, people will no doubt say, "That's what kept Steven Soderbergh from going into retirement?" And "White Collar" bohunk Matt Bomer can tell his grandkids his was part of that magical tale.
Bomer has signed on to dance for Soderbergh's "Magic Mike," starring Tatum in the title role as a stripper who mentors Alex Pettyfer in the ways of the hustle, with Matthew McConaughey starring as the ex-dancer who owns the club where they all ply their trade. We got hot flashes just typing that, the idea of watching it is enough to make us swoon.
Bomer can next be seen Oct. 28 co-starring with Justin Timberlake ad Amanda Seyfried in "In Time," as a wealthy 105-year-old man who helps JT go on the run from the law.

Q: Real time feedback on swipe XCode I've managed to change views with UISwipeGestureRecognizer but it only starts changing the view after I do the complete swipe. How can I make it start as soon as I start dragging my finger on the screen? I've searched but couldn't find an answer.

A: Use a Pan gesture
     UIPanGestureRecognizer *pan = [[UIPanGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handlePan:)];
     [self addGestureRecognizer:pan];

Then do:
- (void)handlePan:(UIPanGestureRecognizer *)gesture {

    CGPoint touchPoint = [gesture locationInView:YOUR_VIEW];
    UIView *draggedView = [gesture view];

    switch ([gesture state]) {

        case UIGestureRecognizerStateBegan:
            break;

        case UIGestureRecognizerStatePossible:

            break;

        case UIGestureRecognizerStateChanged:
            break;

        case UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded:
            break;

        case UIGestureRecognizerStateCancelled:
            break;

        case UIGestureRecognizerStateFailed:
            break;

        default:
            break;
    }
}

A: GestureRecognizers will wait until it is certain which gesture was made. This is why they always have a bit of delay. One way of doing this otherwise is to implement your own swipe handler. E.g. You can use touchesBegan: touchesEnded: touchesMoved: and TouchesCancelled: -methods.
(Remember to enable these methods by enabling userInteractionEnabled property for your node(s))
// SKScene init
{
    self.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
}

- (void) touchesBegan:(NSSet*) touches withEvent:(UIEvent*)event
{
     // register that touch(es) began
}

- (void) touchesMoved:(NSSet*) touches withEvent:(UIEvent*)event
{
    // Calculate which way touch(es) is/are moving
}

- (void) touchesEnded:(NSSet*) touches withEvent:(UIEvent*)event
{
    // Register that touch(es) ended
}

Home Football Why Napoli's Jorginho should be tempted back to Brazil
Why Napoli's Jorginho should be tempted back to Brazil
BrazilStats
Napoli's midfield controller could be a perfect fit to finish Brazil's national team puzzle, but Tite needs to move fast for the Serie A sensation
Brazil ended the South American qualifiers in style, hammering Chile by three goals in São Paulo. There is not much criticism that the Brazilian press can afford to dish out to team coach Tite, aside from concerns over repeating the mistake of peaking a year too early before the World Cup.
Having said that, it is the midfield department that fans are most worried about. Following his six goals under the tutelage of Tite, and his move to FC Barcelona, Paulinho seems to be growing in popularity. Meanwhile, the idea of partnering him up with Renato Augusto is still far from being the dream team that Brazil fans want to see.
In the middle of this conflict, the topic of Jorginho has appeared out of the blue. The Napoli man, who has represented Italy twice, has signaled that he would accept a Seleção call-up. His agent even hinted that Tite could monitor the midfielder in Tuesday's Champions League tie at Manchester City.
https://twitter.com/BrazilStat/status/916305341167624192
Legally speaking, Jorginho is eligible to represent Brazil's national team, because he has never taken part in any official tournament, nor qualifier, with Italy. If he was to make the switch to the South American giants, then he would not be able to reverse his decision. With Italy boss Gian Piero Ventura having closed the door on the Napoli star, a contact with the CBF could well be the only remaining factor separating Jorginho from wearing the yellow jersey.
Here is where the debate reaches its peak. According to Brazilian reports, Tite admires Jorginho's passing but sees him as a defensive midfielder, which means that he would have to share the same position as Casemiro and Fernandinho, who both look set to take the plane to Russia.
Jorginho is arguably the most important player for the Serie A league leaders. His ability to control and dictate the tempo of the game, is second to none in the league. While it is true that he plies his trade in the same position that a defensive midfielder usually does, Jorginho is not a traditional primeiro volante.
He only shares the same position, but his function is completely different. In Maurizio Sarri's system, the defensive midfielder, often referred to as regista, is the player responsible for orchestrating play, whereas in Brazilian culture, he is the one who must offer protection for the back-line and balance for the rest of the midfielders.
[fve]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Av6vzw3Qzkk[/fve]
It is his compatriot Allan, who does the dirty work, allowing Jorginho to concentrate on his primary task of dictating play. It is in this sense, similar to the famous Pirlo – Gattuso partnership during their glory days at AC Milan.
Jorginho does not impose himself as an automatic fit in Tite's system. However, if the veteran tactician, who is not usually a fan of trying players in positions they have not mastered at club-level, ever decides to give Jorginho the opportunity to prove himself in a more advanced role, Brazil's national team could well have one of the best controllers in the world.
Casemiro and Toni Kroos have worked wonders at Real Madrid, it is worth giving Jorginho a chance, in the worst case, as Renato Augusto's back-up. If the Napoli-man isn't a clear upgrade in Tite's scheme for 2018, Brazil should look to him for future competitions, as he is only 25-years-old.
Will the Brazilian Football Association be smart enough in handling Jorginho's case, or will the Amarelinha lose him to a European national team as was the case with many other top talents in recent times?

It's time to plant cold hardy vegetables in the ground. Spinach, peas, carrots, parsnips, beets and lettuce can safely go in the soil now. Don't be afraid of planting seeds – it's less expensive than buying little six-packs of seedlings someone else has started and tended. And I find that there is great satisfaction in starting seeds in the ground. It makes me feel like a real gardener!
Tip #1: Don't Rototill Now! I clean up my garden in the fall and get rid of weeds and debris then. That makes it easier now. I don't ever rototill the garden and especially warn against rototilling a wet garden – which most of us have now – as it can damage soil tilth and compact clumps of soil. I just use a garden fork to loosen the soil and my CobraHead weeder to fluff it some.
Tip #2: Build wide raised beds. I keep my beds from year to year, creating beds that are about 24 to 30 inches wide and raised up about 6 inches above the walkways. How do I raise them up? I rake or hoe soil from the walkways into my beds, and I add compost every year. Raised beds dry out and warm up more quickly in the spring than a flat garden.
Tip #4: Never let you seeds dry out! Right now soil is moist, but keep an eye on the beds if we have a few days of hot, dry weather.
So buy some seeds, and go have fun.
I have 2 classes soon at the AVA Gallery, the first is Sculpting the Living Landscape: Vegetable Gardening on May 9. The next is May 16: Sculpting the Living Landscape: Flowering Plants.
By the way, if you need someone to rescue your overgrown apple tree, I'm your guy – if you live in the Upper Valley. Call me at 603-543-1307 or e-mail me at henry.homeyer@comcast.net. Or I can give you a private pruning lesson. I do blueberry pruning, too.

New site for May photo shoot announced
The May photo shoot for the Van Wert Area Photography Club has changed due to new information supplied by Larry Webb. An eight-page flyer indicates that, on May 18, we will have the opportunity to record a historical event. At 12:30 p.m. that day, the Van Wert County Regional Airport will become the Walter Hinton Airfield.
A portrait of Walter Hinton
Hinton was raised on a farm in Tully Township in 1888 and in 1919 was one of the two pilots in a six-man crew who made the first transatlantic flight in a NC-4 flying boat. The pamphlet lists several of his aviation accomplishments and awards as well as a full schedule of the day's events and photos of some of the aviation attractions that will be there that day. Admission and parking are free. Anyone wishing their own copy of the brochure can get it at the airport or the VW Area Convention & Visitor's Bureau, 136 E. Main St. here in Van Wert. Watch for more details closer to the event.
Also last week in an attempt to compare the advantages of a standard lens to the limitations of the wide-angle and telephoto lenses, it may have appeared that I was downgrading those lenses. That was not my intention.
The wide-angle, often an 18-35mm zoom, has the widest and greatest depth of field. That makes it the best suited for landscapes, because you can include something of interest in the foreground and the background remains in sharp focus. It is also an advantage in shooting large groups, or groups in tight quarters.
The telephoto lens is sometimes a 70-200mm zoom lens. Its advantage is to bring the subject up close. Randy Shellenbarger and Mike Taylor have posted outstanding photos of birds of prey and water birds in amazing detail on their Facebook pages. Just be aware of how the background appears behind the subject.

Newberry to head Clean Air Coalition
Rebecca Newberry
By Mark Sommer|Published Mon, Jul 27, 2015
Rebecca R. Newberry, an organizer of the Clean Air Coalition of Western New York who led successful campaigns against Tonawanda Coke, Amigone Crematory and Battaglia Demolition, and guided another to address the Huntley coal plant's uncertain future, has been named the organization's next executive director.
Newberry, at Clean Air since 2011, succeeds Erin J. Heaney, who grew the coalition from a small and primarily volunteer-run organization over the last six years to one of the region's most prominent environmental groups. Heaney is leaving to begin work in the fall as the organizing director for Showing up for Racial Justice, a not-for-profit that encourages white people to confront racism and help build a more just world.
"The Clean Air board looks forward to continuing our effective organizing efforts under Rebecca's leadership," Sean E. Cooney, the board's president, said in a statement. "We are confident her extensive organizing experience and experience in nonprofit management will usher in an era of new growth at Clean Air."
Cooney praised Heaney's work. "She really transformed Clean Air into one of the region's most effective community organizations," he said. "Her organizing model of empowering people to speak for themselves is what has made our organization successful, and it's what will make us remain successful after she's gone."
Newberry previously worked with the Rochester Genesee Valley American Labor Federation, spearheading Next Generation United, a coalition that was chosen in 2012 by the AFL-CIO National Council as a model for young labor groups across the country. Newberry was also an organizer for the Gay Alliance of the Genesee Valley. She holds a master's degree in nonprofit management from Canisius College, and a bachelor's in health science education from Brockport State College.
"I'm excited to move into this position," Newberry said. "Buffalo is my hometown, and I am happy I get the opportunity to continue the organization's commitment to our membership, and to continue the tradition of community organizing in Western New York."
Her appointment was hailed in a statement by Richard Lipsitz Jr., president of the Western New York Area Labor Federation, AFL-CIO.
Newberry, 33, will also assume the role of director of Community Power for Health and Justice, which educates and mobilizes voters around issues of environmental and economic justice.
As organizing director for Showing Up for Racial Justice, Heaney, 28, will work with the organization's 75 chapters while remaining based in Buffalo.
"Because of the visionary organizing of the Black Lives Matter movement, many white people have woken up to racial justice. I feel we're in a moment where there is the possibility for real change," Heaney said.
"I feel so blessed that I have gotten to work here as long as I have with the incredible staff, board and community leadership. I have learned so much. The organization has given me as much as I've given it, and I'm grateful."

Recently, a man of experience in latter middle life, expressed his relief at and joy in finding emphasis on the God-fearing man. He had desired such a pattern, such a way, a mode, an example, and this represented a yearning in his heart, and when focussed, a delight to his spirit.
People are often seeking something to which to give allegiance, commitment, to receive as a pattern, to find as a basis, to believe in as the perfection, the desideratum; and at times, it becomes the lust for glory, when frustrated by machinations and deprivations in the heart. At other times, it becomes the wander-lust of the dilettante, never satisfied, always seeking, like a cat in the garbage can, admittedly with some hope of some sustenance, but of nothing worthy of real commendation! The decline of the disillusioned! it could almost become a pattern of this generation. Seeking amiss, they do not find; not finding, they invent; still not finding, they add passion, and still lacking, they superadd thrust. If the results appal, the way enthrals. It is like a sports car driven blindfold: it may thrill for a little while.
In a score of disappointments, they grow in vehemence, or dissolution, often both. Their zeal may carry them past all facts, to acts of horror, as with many in the Palestinian-Moslem syndrome of this day, specialising in murder, aggrandising in shame.
It is however not there that relief, release is found, because for this, truth must be prominent, yes and dominant.
yes under the eye of battle, in the teeth of the gale of the gallows, when mocked, when besought, when famous, when abased: at all times, His was the answer, the way and the truth.
It was also the life.
On this, much has been written on this site, on His authenticity, authority and magnificence (cf. SMR Chs. 1, 6, Biblical Blessings Appendix IV, Barbs, Arrows and Balms, Appendix 1 279ff., Repent or Perish Ch. 2, Spiritual Refreshings... Chs. 3 and 5 - and see Index on Jesus).
Yet let us consider it further. In life in general, Christian Apologetics in particular, it is often necessary to TASTE AND SEE, as in a laboratory, yet where in some cases the taste may need to be more metaphorical, in view of the sometimes searing ingredients! Many test these things in the flesh, and are indeed seared. Man's madness with such experiments soars into the depths, if you can imagine for one moment, the lust for the illustrious, passion for glory, combined with the mistaken directions, leading to an exuberant detachment imprinted with passion, descending, descending, as if it were going aloft. One does not need much thought to see the end, and the end of such things litters this earth. This is the spiritual spaces debris, of which less is heard than of the other kind, but far more is to be seen!
Vagrant visionaries wave their flags of arrant and often arrogant mortality, making the charge of the Light Brigade, the valiant 600, seem almost safe by comparison, or well-chosen!
As for Christ, then, let us look at some of the ingredients of His character, the dispositions of His life, the wonders of His expression.
What is to be found here ?
What then is one of the specialised specificities in Christ ? (before lamenting over that verbal combination, consider how likely you are to forget it! and as to Christ Himself, He is the more unforgettable, the world still covered with towers of triumphs in His grace, in word and life).
or Christ's "Friend, why have you come ?" at a kiss He knew to be treacherous (Matthew 26:50), implanted as signal from the traitor, for the identification Christ for what was rather clearly going to be execution purposes.
How would He be more bountiful than in restoring the cleft ear of the servant of the High Prieist, come to arrest Him for a satanic purpose (Luke 22:50-51).
His natural compassion, stirred at the scene of the 5000 to feed them (Matthew 14:14), yet never was moved to indulgence, as if to suppress the exposure of false motive, wrongfully arising after His gift.
Thus, even after the expression of divine generosity, confirmed by miracle as a continuation and amplification of that of Elisha (II Kings 4:38-44), both in sweetness and health, and in scope of the feast provided, purity still reigned. Therefore, He could on the next day, draw their attention back to salvation, and away from pragmatic and mercenary desires (John 6:26-54) which such liberality can evoke in some, who could corrupt almost anything, however good, if once they were given free reign! Indeed, He could use the act of power to make a testimony, a teaching of salvation, not merely in terms of the love, the mercy shown, but the meaning inherent in the action, linking it to the former acts of the Lord, with Moses, and showing its consummation of meaning in what was to follow. That ? it was His own flesh, given in sacrifice, that better manna.
Further, no mere reflection was here, or even any simple expression of consummation of a trend: rather He used it to give precise form and information concerning His cross, His sacrifice, His giving of His life. It was to be 1) a sacrificial offering 2) one to be taken so personally as to make eating its physical correlate 3) it was to be the sacrifice to end sacrifices, not merely at the direction of God Almighty, but for His personal provision in incarnation - as in Hosea 13:14, Isaiah 52-53, Micah 5:1-3, Psalm 22, John 6:62ff. (cf. Joyful Jottings 21-25, The Kingdom of Heaven Ch. 9, No. 8, With Heart and Soul, Mind and Strength Ch. 6).
without pomp or pomposity, carnality or compromise, fleshly heat or spiritual discomposure (Matthew 21:1-11), always citing scripture with a pellucid perspicuity, so that under challenge, He was unanswerable, His words like barbs to the barbaric, like swords to the contesting pettifoggers, like pincer movements of the military, when He surged to expose their weakness (Matthew 21:12-46).
But why ? not for lust of argument, not for tempestuousness of triumph did He act , for His words and His works agree in one, as works of truth, peace and compassion, challenge, judgment and appeal, showing the way amid confusion, the light cast like a beam into darkness, and rebuking what was molesting the flock with a severity that tenderness has as its ally in such matters! This was fully exposed in Ezekiel 34, when God execrated the self-seeking pomp and pretentious arrogations of the worldly 'pastors', and indicated that HE WOULD COME AND BE PASTOR HIMSELF! Thus in John 10:1-10, you see this fulfilled, in Luke 11:52 His judgment on the impostors who with merely surreal spirituality, impeded salvation, instead of ministering for it!
And what did those exposed do when so exposed, now by God Himself on earth in person, as He declared would be the case ? They "began to oppose Him vehemently, and to provoke Him to speak of many things, laying wait for Him, and seeking to catch something out of His mouth, that they might accuse Him." Precisely as Israel in many of its power structures, treated the prophets, in spirit, did they seek to bait, endeavour to harass, reject and rage. Even in this they failed, for who in anything could succeed against the Maker of man! This was the nature of the expected case, for God is after all infinitely beyond sin and evil, the predicted case (Isaiah 11, 49:2,6-8, 50:4-9), and the actual case. These three agree in one. Verification delights like lilies in the well-watered pasture, set in sunshine; it is regaled, knows neither limit nor bound.
He was simply unanswerable, a walking harassment of harassment, lethal to to the lethal, by exposing their flanks, exhibiting their follies and exposing the truth in its perfection of bliss, from His own mouth (cf. Mark 11:33). To be sure, He would give power to His own to answer (John 14:12, Luke 21:15), yes His was the author of the authority, and His own practice had no imperfection, flicker of weakness or failure in performance (cf. James 1:17). When God acts in His own being, His perfection is the result, whatever the suffering, whatever the purity, whatever the criteria, whatever the circumstances, the conditions or the counter-force. It is as the small dust in the balance. This is the theology; it is also the practicality. It is the expectation, the imputation and the situation. In Christ, they combine, again, as one.
Indeed, there is no phase or facet which fails, search as one may, and it is like viewing an Old Master painting of the highest kind, only better; for not merely do tests show the quality, but the quality suggests the tests, dimension upon dimension stirring the imagination when it sees what has been done, realising the challenge faced by the conspicuousness of the solution provided.
Thus Christ's rebukes were never stung by merely personal offence, but therapeutic in heart, solicitous in spirit, or minatory in force. To Jerusalem His rebuke is surrounded with tears (Luke 19:42ff.), though chaste in containment; to the scribes His severity does not fail to list the offence to the weak committed by the pseudo-scholarly abuse of strength, the very contrary of their office and responsibility. Of hypocrisy He is arch-foe, its intemperate gluttony of glory with its inherent unservicability being the precise contrast of His own ways (Matthew 23).
But He ? Not only did He make salvation intimately available, in kindness and compassion, in truth and reality (John 3, 6), but He provided it by the death which, for God incarnate, constituted the payment to relief justice of heartlessness and mercy of fecklessness (cf. Romans 3:23ff.).
His words and His works, again, were as one (cf. John 14:10-11).
The beauty is severe, sensational, practical, probing (cf. Psalm 45, 110), the peace austere, friendly, composed, profound, the strength always adequate, always at price (cf. Mark 1:35ff., Matthew 17:14-21, Luke 22:39-46, 27:46), and the very agonies did not dim or diminish the tenderness (Luke 23:39-43). There was to be found the peace of the king of eternity, the certainty of the very word of God, the effectuality of the word on mission (Isaiah 48:16), and the power of the Prince of peace, making peace by being it, Himself the focus of the sin that condemns, freely (Isaiah 55:1ff., 53:6). Hence He did not baulk at forgiving sins personally, who in Himself was their cure (Mark 1-12).
Where His graces, mercies and opportunities were sinfully ignored, they could lead to His lament as over Jerusalem; but this was equipped with a realism at His rejection, since in Himself is the essential criterion of life, that nevertheless did not ignore or blush at the results of such denial (Luke 19:44).
Was He not Himself giving His own life for them, to cover ALL who EVER would come to receive it, and not only so, but giving it to mockery, as well as to death, apparent impotence as well as sacrifice, with a purity of motive and inflexible and indefatigable resolve that omitted no grace, no duty, even praying in the very midst of such contempt, for His oppressors, WHILE they still oppressed Him, even at the lethal end of the whole matter, as far as His mortal body was concerned (Luke 23:34). Though it was to be attested as immortal through resurrection, as a man indeed, no less than the Son of God, this transition was to be performed! He had to face its interstices, as sin-bearer, at the end, alone!
After all, His purpose was to give to the uttermost, to bring from the utmost vagrancies all who would be moved.
If He were to be moved, as rarely seen (Mark 3:5), to righteous indignation, its impact was to purify, to enable more liberty for salvation and to overcome that odour of evil which was disposed to sully the ardour and the beauty of holiness, inherent in Himself, maintained for the faithful. Indeed, it is the rallying at the irreconcilable obstruction, obfuscation or intrusion of the merciless in their unspiritual severities, as He did good! It is the surgeon, we see here, having his arm bumped by an odious nurse, while he performs an operation she desires not to succeed; or worse, by an assitant surgeon, miscalled, who is envious of the triumph to come, or doctrinaire, does not want it to work!
So did He scorn and drive out that commercialism in the Temple (John 2:13ff., Mark 11:15ff., Matthew 21:12ff.) which, with spiritual obscenity, dared to 'make a good thing out of' the worship of God! In doing so, His quotations assembled from Isaiah 56 and Jeremiah 7, are completed with one from Psalm 8, all with a seemingly effortless penetration, an indomitable thrust, a dazzling precision.
Yet, for all that, He zealously stirred men to use their talents, to be industriously constructive, intelligently alert, so long as their service was first of all for God (Matthew 25:14ff., Luke 19:12ff.).
There are however many other features on which one could focus. Let us for survey, list some of them.
If then in PERSONALITY WE FIND UNIQUE AUTHENTICITY, AUTHENTIC UNIQUENESS AND IMMEASURABLE MAJESTY, what else is to be considered ?
CROWN (Luke 23:43, John 18:34-37, 19:19-22).
On the NEGATIVE SIDE, for what is wrong or inadequate needs negation, there was this list, merely for a swift survey. What then were some of the features which Christ displayed in this dimension.
Not subject to circumstances but in humility, holiness and in truth, towering over all scenarios (Mark 2:1-12,23ff., 4:35ff., Matthew 14:22ff., John 2).
and to show the power all need, not to dictate, but to break death.
As in no other, what He said and did had power to total correlation, so that the balance resembled the beauty of some giant river gum - majestic in symmetry, yet intensely individual in branches, of which the number seems almost illimitable and the flower a sweet cascade of arboreal tresses (cf. John 20:30-31, 21:24-25). He did it in life, He performed it in death, He continued in resurrection; His power comes from afar, but enters into the immense depths of the heart, reviving to this day, empowering with grace, giving grace with power, immersing the inner man with peace and filling the heart with understanding (Ephesians 1:17-19, and the blessed avoidance of the condition depicted in Isaiah 48:18-19, one which however speaks positively by its very omission!
Laughing at limits, He delimited man and properly defined Him. Perfect in person, He is also effective in principle something this worn world in its ways is not - and He leaves a royal power in store, working the world's destiny without removing its will, as well as recoding the hearts of the redeemed, a very necessary performance (Hebrews 8:8-13) - yet one always subordinate to purposes so holy that his world itself cannot contravene them, merely murder those who perform them, while it wallows in blood, and awaits unrepentant, its due judgment. These however who are His, they go on undeterred, using spiritual and not carnal weapons, and their works follow them.
THE 'ENGINES' THAT WILL NOT START!
1) Consider now John 14:1-3.
Having displayed the power, exhibited the presence and shown the authority of God for His ways and words, His life on earth and mission now nearly complete, Jesus the Christ said words both deep and reasonable: "Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in Me." They believed the unseen source, they must also believe the visible incarnation.
This has a tenderness of reason, an implication of affection, a depth of compassion which is arresting. Words of vacuity, leave to the philosophers who know no God. Thoughts of frozen principle, leave to the mathematical among them. God made persons and is personal; knows thoughts, since He manufactured their kind, and provided for them needful equipment on earth. He does not treat man as material, or material as man.
Projections concerning the future are as natural to man as the ground under his feet. Meeting these, Christ gave ground for man's life, for all who are His.
Does He then ignore the natural human tenor, He who created man ? Of course not. If it were some horrendous life which attaining to rich and mellow meaning, were simply to be cut off, or left into some unknown realms, would not such a fate have concerned the Saviour, or would not such an abortion of reasonableness have been addressed by His power, and such works as were necessary have been performed by His love ? Naturally and necessarily, for He who has come to give His life a ransom for many (Matthew 20:28, 26:28), is not doing it for their death, but to grant escape its just rigours; not acting for their dumping, but for their deliverance; meeting the rigours in Himself, to give them the vigour of truth and the results in eternity of divine enterprise in time. It is for their very lives that He has come.
Nevertheless, while such things are obvious, the words here spoken by Christ are sacred, secure and explicit. It is not left to the imagination, to the deductive facilities; it is manifest. It is stated.
life ? Of course not, and if in anything there were any blemish, would He not have made it clear! "I should have told you ..."
In fact however, He has been given a full, sufficient and efficient sacrifice for sin, and those who are His He will raise up on the last day, to glory (John 6:50-54, 11:25-26, Matthew 25, I John 2:2, Hebrews 9:12-10:14).
"I am going to prepare a place for you, and if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, so that where I am, there you may be also."
Questioned, as we read later in this chapter of John, He makes obvious the point: He who has seen Him HAS seen the Father; so that HE HIMSELF IS THE WAY, in Him is life, through Him is resurrection and He is about to demonstrate the visible, testimony to the invisible (John 14:19-21, 16:16-23, cf. Matthew 17:22-23).
It is all eminently personal. He repeats and amplifies the intention to prepare a place for them; He makes conspicuous therefore to them that His words are pondered, processive, reflective, that He will do the one, and then having done it, will do the other.
Nor is this all: He is doing this for a purpose, so that they may accompany Him in heaven, whose hearts accompanied His with joy on earth.
This is more than felicitous; it is larger than comfort. It is exquisite in tenderness, eminent in practicality, gracious in divulgement, complete in scope. His dealings are comprehensive, comprehensible and charitable; His works are sufficient, signal and have His style, that amplitude of survey, that utter profundity of provision and security of strength. Not tyrannical in mode, but good in solicitude, He makes all things clear, satisfies the enquiries we there read as the chapter proceeds, and moves into the realm of life before His return, with provisions and promises anew, like some massive bouquet, garlanded with reason, relished with rapture and abundant in construction.
Here we find Jesus before the High Priest. Interrogation is proceeding, at night in that travesty of justice, that quarantine from the people, that forerunner of the secret police abstracting and absconding with persons, in dark corners, seizing prey of which Russia has so long and in so much been a focus during the 20th century.
Christ's remonstrates in the dark court: You have been able to hear Me often enough, My speech has been most public, in synagogues, in the Temple, where the people are. This was its thrust. Why ask Me ? Ask those who heard.
The fact of course that the priests had long been contemplating His murder (Matthew 12:14), being exposed by His words (as in Matthew 23, Luke 11) and vehement in their opposition (Luke 11:53-54), makes the interrogation ring so untrue, as if a cracked bell were sending out its quavering note, where fulsome and sonorous sound was expected, to rejoice the heart. This was merely like an Arctic blast, to freeze it, a thing contrived in ice, and sent in coldness. Do you then feel a pang of sorrow for the priestly figures, clothed in shame ? Why ? Did not many priests believe later (as in Acts 6:7). Might not these have done the same ? Might not some in fact have repented ? Did not Christ even on the last phases of His agonies, call out for His oppressors, Father forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing, as as we read it in Luke, He kept on so calling (Luke 23:34, imperfect tense).
But, you may wish to pursue it, were they not ensconced in their professions, earning their livelihood, and was there not an authority, the Caiaphas man, and could you really expect them to give up their careers just for the sake of the truth ?
They perhaps were so placed, but truth has a way with it, sometimes to strike the impervious seeming rotter, at times to enlist unforeseen support; BUT IF NOT (as the three friends of Daniel put it (3:18), "let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up."
There is such a thing as courage! Further, you CANNOT be a disciple of Christ unless you are willing to FORSAKE ALL. God is not mocked. He is not a puppet or a plaything; but God Almighty. You serve Him or you do not. Mercifully, there is no real tension, for where all the power is, there also is all the love that endures! As to truth, forsake it and live in a dream. That does not long continue, as is the case with dreams!
So people go to their long home; but not without reason, and that is one reason why God sent Christ, His Christ into the world, His fellow, eternal companion (Micah 5:1-3, John 1:1), the ONLY begotten Son, eternal in being, essential for salvation, into this world, as I John 4 so expressly puts it (4:9, 5:6-7, 4:14). If they reject Him, is some dictation to make them into spiritual robots, then ? Not so. Made in the image of God, they are not to be tyrannised over, for God is truth, and in truth what bears His image has spirit, and is no conditionable unit. If it is MADE to conform, without heart, then it is mere lie.
So they go where they are to go, and if they seek to deface the Christ, whether literally and physically, or scripturally, the end is what does not save. How then are they to be saved who so defile what is salvation! there is no other (Acts 4:11-12)!
Let us however revert to the scene with the High Priest. We turn now to the entourage of power. When Christ had answered, making it clear that His utterances were so public that it should not be difficult to have someone report them to the enquiring authorities, violence struck.
It was quite simple, at the first. On hearing this, one of the officials, struck, or slapped Jesus, asking, in effect, Is this any way to answer the High Priest ?
Has not authority over man spoken from its privileged position; and are yet, here are you ready to act like a reasonable soul, to answer him with some sense of equality before justice ? Is THIS any way to behave! Down cur! This was the thrust of the official's words, which accompanied his striking of Christ's face.
Jesus did not reply in fuming anger, in foolish outrage, nor in abased fear. Instead, He spoke with a sharpness of reason, an inveterate justice, a truth so singular and apt that it comes like the first signs of Spring, after the continuing frosts of some long Winter.
"If, " He responded to this double assault, of tongue and hand, "If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil; bit if well, why do you strike Me ?"
From this scene, we find Him then sent bound from Annas, perhaps as preliminary deputising, to Caiaphas the high priest (John 18:24).
The answer which He had given, however, is deliciously simple. Let us seek to paraphrase the sense and force of it, at least.
PROVE Me false; why do you not proceed ? Let us hear these profound words. Do your worst, consult your annals, execute your wisdom, let us be informed, let the court be instructed, worker of violence. If you slap, then you are to do so, if justice is to be any criterion at all in this slaughter house (for He knew the end from the beginning, cf. John 1:29), on the basis of demonstrable WRONG. WHERE then is it ? You have acted to execute righteousness ? WHERE precisely IS that righteousness!
If on the other hand, you have acted in the pomposity of ceremonial pretension, and have no case at all, merely the urge to do violence, WHY do you do it ?
Is then this the manner of justice ? Is this the character of this court, that it will so suffer suffering without even words to establish its right, and prejudge without ground, acting as also in the arrest, on grounds amiss, with case vague and incomprehensible, except to envy! Is the court a minister to outrage of unrepentant heart and that inveterate desire to get rid of God which is such an hypocrisy in the ways of those who for so long have treated the people as a means, and God as a method, rather than God as a source and director: who now seek to slay His only begotten Son!
Such thoughts are readily evoked by the reply, when you consider the guilty consciences of the operatives, the court!
In so little, in such a case, in such circumstances, so much is evoked. It stands as when spoken in condemnation of all the secret police presumptions and cautions, that cause aching hearts and empty homes on the basis of the presumptuous power lusts of those who seek to establish themselves, not justice, to force their own rule, and not righteousness.
That courage, character and composure accompany the thrust of the Messiah, here, goes without saying; that a majesty which knows no cowing, and needs no spuming of anger, is at work, is apparent as the case proceeds, in the confused vexatiousness of the procedure in contrast with the simple regality of the victim, aware of His end on this earth, both the cross and the resurrection, aware of their wickedness, seeing past their pretension and knowing their judgment. Though now in their day of power (cf. John 19:11), they are those who judge, their own judgment, when truth rules (Romans 2:2), except they repent, is not far off.
It is with Pilate, as in John 18:29-38 that the reality of the victim towering over His oppressors is seen in its simple splendour, and unabashed incisiveness. As the Word of God, when rejected, He leaves NO TRUTH. As the truth, He, being sent to death, leaves only the confusion, like a chest cavity without a heart, which human history when ignoring Him, so foully portrays. Betraying truth, it lacks it. Lacking it, it is filled perennially with the evidences of its loss, now mounting like some giant tsunami to envelop the earth.
For further on this scene and scenario, see at length Chapter 7 below.
3) Lastly, we come to John 5:19-23 as background for John 9:39-41.
In the former verses, in John 5, we see that not only is Christ the expression of God in performing perfectly all His will, but the works He does are done in the SAME WAY as the Father does them. This amazing statement of course gives the lie to the error of John Calvin, who, faced with Matthew 23:37 in his Institutes, alas recklessly asserts that the work of Christ and His understanding are moving one way, and the divine thoughts of His Father are not identical. Not as the compassion of the Son is the fashion of the Father. That is utterly wrong. On the contrary, however, when we actually read what is written, to use the GREEK, JUST AS the Father does it, so the Son. It is the Father likewise who in this same spirit WOULD OFTEN have brought the people to repentance, but they would not, they were not willing (cf. SMR Appendix B, The Kingdom of Heaven Ch. 4, and on Calvin, Predestination and Freewill, Section 2, pp. 79ff., Tender Times for Timely Truths Ch. 2, *1).
No, as also in Colossians 1:19ff., where this is perfectly explicit! It is the love of God which, precisely as in Christ, whom to see is to see the Father (John 14:9), is munificent. Its breach is decisive, but its scope is as in I John 2:2, sufficient for all. Alas for the judgments, however, which follow its ultimate and undeterred demise in the human heart. Of course God foreknew, for what does He not foreknow (Ephesians 1:4, Isaiah 46:10, Acts 15:18); but HOW He foreknew, it is in quality just as Christ expressed it, in terms of teeming love; so that the laments on earth (Luke 19:42ff.) are not without basis in the decisions of eternity. God IS love (I John 4:8).
But JUDGMENT DOES FOLLOW, and this too is foreknown as we often see (cf. Ezekiel 38:17, Isaiah 30:31ff., 37:26-27, Deuteronomy 32). Just as the believer has already passed from a state of death to a state of life so that he does not come into judgment (as in I John 3:9, 5:11-12), so in the resurrection, it is also already clear (as in John 3:18-19,36), that decisive indeed is the division: for the founded soul is never confounded (John 6:40,47), and the evil which never even is born into His kingdom at all (John 3:3,5), these as workers without God, and hence without His goodness, fall foul of the truth, and are condemned.
These things are reflected in no small measure, with exceeding clarity in John 9:39-41. The man healed by the grace of Christ, the ecclesiastical subverters, then in power, would have preferred to have been let lie, it being a day of rest. Their own cows they might lift out of a pit on this day, if they fell in; but not a human!
Persecuting the healed man, as if their own remorselessness was the very work they had to produce, they threw him out of the synagogue, a very clear indication of who was running THAT place at that time!
When Christ met the man, again, He tenderly evoked the expression of faith - DO YOU BELIEVE IN THE SON OF GOD ? came the question.
WHO IS HE ? came the response.
IT IS HE WHO TALKS WITH YOU.
Such was the tenor of the conversation (cf. Romans 10:9).
The man had faith, had found its just and due object, Jesus the Christ, and had exercised it in terms of the power and purity of the testimony, being given grace of heart as well as of body.
What however did Christ THEN SAY! That is the question for the moment.
We find it at the end of this reported conversation, to which we now attend (bold added, for emphasis only).
Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had found him, He said to him, "Do you believe in the Son of God?" He answered and said, "Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?" And Jesus said to him, "You have both seen Him and it is He who is talking with you." Then he said, "Lord, I believe!" And he worshipped Him.
"For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind." Then some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, "Are we blind also?" Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, 'We see.' Therefore your sin remains."
After the tenderness, the solicitude, the eminently and pre-eminently personal understanding shown to the man, whose faith and future is thereby assured, Christ turns to characterise the obstruction to His mercy. The prima facie paradox occurs: the ones who do not see (being, as here physically blind, and in this class one might find those who were so UNASSUMING that they did not already KNOW SO MUCH that further learning was outrageously out of the question!), these people can and do receive sight.
On the other hand, those who see (the play on the physical and the spiritual now being express and explicit), because of their self-assured arrogance, or their setting of their sights in the culture of the times, not in the word of God and the just expectations in which it had for so long abounded, concerning the coming, the power and the ways of the Messiah, yes even His date of death (as if merely to foretell His death were a small thing): these will remain tied to their stalls, like shut-in cattle, confined, in a mess and without light.
You say, 'We see,' and THEREFORE your sins stays with you. How would a patient come to a doctor if he said, 'I AM WELL!' or how would a student come to learn if he says, 'I KNOW IT SO WELL!' How does a sinner come to Christ if he has his own reins, and reigns alone, or in his culture, or his organisation of this or that type, without the sanction, the power or the authority of God, which is expressly in Christ plus nothing, for He saves, plus nothing, and the ways without Him, these go nowhere.
In NO OTHER NAME is salvation to be found, whether Mary, or Mass, or Pope, or Moroni, in Muhammad or any other pretender to the place of peace for man. In fact, to take our illustrations, what have been more abundant in denying, ruining and destroying the lives of men than these, as far as all religions go! (cf. SMR pp.1032ff., 950ff., Barbs, Arrows and Balms 30, More Marvels … Ch. 4, News 74 *1, Stepping out for Christ Ch. 9), some physically as well. In the day of Christ, it was Judaism which made the fateful error, practising it first on One, then on others, with political machinations.
This THEREFORE, this word of Christ is filled with judgment, of which He Himself is the criterion (as in John 5:22-23, Acts 17:31). It is not for their sin that hell reaches up to them, for this is readily forgiven from such a profound payment platform as Christ constitutes, His love having impelled Him and His power have propelled the consequence - He being one of the Trinity (John 8:58). It is for their exclusion of remedy, their impenitent prohibition of pardon, their despising (and if a vital medicine is not used when the patient desiring life, has a terminal illness, it IS despised) of the Gospel that they suffer damnation, that inveterate end to inveterate wilfulness; and this is known before all time, and all time apart, by God.
It is He who FOREKNEW whom He PREDESTINATED, and the former is first! (Romans 8:29ff.).
There are no mistakes. There is no lack of love. There is a superabundance of mercy (cf. Micah 7:18ff.). Where however HE is not received, neither is His ransom, and so the SIN REMAINS just where it is. Thus He declared, as we see in John 8:24: "Therefore I told you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."
Hence that pithy and pungent, yet perhaps for many a therapeutic declaration, that He came for judgment (in that category for the moment, in His speech), with this result, that HE JUDGES that what receives Him in trust and in truth IS HIS, and so will see, will enter the kingdom (John 3:3-5), and be HIS; while He equally judges that what is too full of itself to see, excluding itself, retains its sin and its imaginary vision! The sightless see, being sated with the sovereign mercy of the revealing God; the seeing remain sightless, for their pretension is no more sight than is judgment pardon.
In this way, the quality of judgment is surveyed and seen; and it is nothing different from that in John 15:21-23, where indicated this, that BECAUSE He had actually COME and they had actually SEEN and HEARD what was done, beyond all things merely human, and yet had rejected Him, that their sin remained. IF HE HAD NOT DONE SO, NEITHER would their sin be of this damning quality. He KNOWS the heart; He also knows the result. History does not falsify the knowledge of eternity.
It is as in John 3 (cf. The Kingdom of Heaven Ch. 4, and with it, Cascade of Truth, Torrent of Mercy Ch. 9), that the love of God is shown in the practicalities of the presence of the infinitely costly coming of the Christ, and that it is IN VIEW OF the treatment of this, that the result obtains. WHEN THIS LIGHT, having come, is rejected, then there is no further sacrifice. Its propulsion is in love for the world, nothing less (cf. Colossians 1:19ff.), and its rejection is the criterion of negative judgment, when that is final!
Judgment is not a loveless enormity; but rather is it a result of a truth which is too tenacious to move (and if it did, heaven would move, a mirage for the thirsty), when the mercy which is too insistent to depart, is dismissed. It is not in man's power to determine these things (as in I Cor. 2:13-14), since he is too sick to see (Ephesians 2:1-8, 4:17-19); but he is responsible, since in God's knowledge, sickness is no barrier , nor is it bar or limit. HE KNOWS who are His, as He says (II Tim. 2:19), and sovereignly selects them. Yet this, it is not with balefulness of indifference, but rather with a love which in mercy is more than sufficient, and restricts itself where in His own judgment, its reception has and can have no place. He has not made robots, nor yet autocrats, but it is for mankind He seeks, and He takes what is His.
" 'Know therefore and see that it is an evil and bitter thing that you have forsaken the LORD your God, and the fear of Me is not in you,' says the Lord GOD of hosts," Jeremiah 2:19.
Be very desolate, says the LORD.
And hewn themselves cisterns - broken cisterns that can hold no water .
Is Israel a servant ? Is he a homeborn slave ?"
Israel is cause of desolation in the watching heavens. Christ wept over Jerusalem (Luke 19:42ff.). It is one. It is as in Ezekiel 33:11, Lamentations 3:33.
But why such lamentation ? is it not that the judgment though borne for all who are to be healed (Isaiah 53:5), is yet to be borne by those who reject His bearing of it. It is not HE who condemns; but rather they who refuse exculpation in pardon, by vicarious virtue, sent and spent in Christ on their behalf who elicit the irrepressible truth; for there is NONE on whose behalf He is not given, just as there is NONE for whom He pays, who is not repentant. Its precision is not occasion for lassitude; its amplitude is no ground for indifference. God has done all. He holds none in overbearing tyranny; but offers to all unwearing liberty. Those who SEE, these are to become blind; but those who do not see, these being awakened, will see eternity at rest.
With what simplicity Christ here as in John 15:21-23 keeps it personal, His own person being the criterion, His own love being operative, His own works being explicit; and with what pungency He seeks to awaken, if so be, the very dead from their slumbers.
One other notorious feature of Christ's judgment is this. Precisely as with all the prophets, their bases do noted, their citations do not escape and their words like a perfectly directed arrow, find fulfilment, aimed and arriving at the centre of the target.
Christ is the culmination of the words of the prophets (cf. Hebrews 1:1-3), the peak of all performance; but more than this, His words are direct, "it has been said, but I say" as in the Sermon on the Mount.
There is nothing more now to be said to mankind, from where He came from; it is HE who is definitive of the message to man. He fulfils; He does not destroy what preceded (Matthew 5:17-10), but it is in HIM that the culmination comes. He is as devoid of servile appeal to tradition as of limitation of His own mission (cf. John 1:14, Colossians 2:8-9, John 1:18, 3:34). Rather in Him, we find truth defined, error delimited, reality revealed. Whether it be a healing, a helping, an assurance, prediction, small (Matthew 17:26-27) or great (Mark 2:1-10), national or international (Luke 19:42ff., 21:24), what He says, goes. There is no other authority of speech but Himself, the living word of the living God. His therefore is judgment as we have seen; and it is given to Him (John 5:19ff.).
His claims are countenanced because nothing counter is ever countenanced, in any domain or feature.
If it were or ever had been otherwise, if any ever His word had been falsified - for the Word of God is not He whose directions, corrections or inspections fail - then there would be no Messiah. It is this which is His (cf. Isaiah 11, 49:2, Psalm 2); and it is only because the heights of His being matched the depth of His dealing, with nothing left over, that He could say, "Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves" (John 14:11).
So beautiful is His personality, His Spirit, however, that the works are almost like the thorns on a rose: inescapable but scarcely bloom of the plant! Nevertheless, it is just that they are testable, and many are those who draw blood by their slowness to learn, unwilling for truth, slashed though they may be.
It is when you see the works in the presence of the words, that the total ensemble has its majesty revealed. All other majesty fails but this. This has the perfume of eternity, and it works in time. However, there is little time left for the world now, before He comes (cf. Answers to Questions Ch. 5). Nevertheless there is still time for him who reads, her who ponders, short though it be. If you are standing in the way of an express train, yes, you could reflect if you had the figures, that in precisely two minutes it will hit. There is another way, of course. Man does not need to meet that express.
There is a far better expression than the express!


Recently I've been trying to add more colors into the closet, right now, I have a ton of blues, and beginning to add in shades of blush and rose to brighten everyday looks – yup, just like this leather jacket with a very unique hue that's somewhat between coral and rose? Reiss calls it 'rosewood', pretty on-point. With brighter colors I like to pair it with neutral shades like white, grey, and/or black to maintain a minimalistic vibe. Absolutely in love with this chiffon top with textured vertical stripe design and the high neck (favorite detail), feminine with a vintage charm, and when paired with the leather jacket lets it contrast into a more modern and edgy look with the cut-out boots. And kept it effortless with ripped boyfriend jeans.


Hello my lovelies! It's a lovely spring day over here and it's also time for me to show you a beautiful textured polish. I have a huge collection of this type of polishes in every color, but what I didn't have was a gold one. Not anymore though because this beauty came into my life and completed my collection. It comes from the Holiday line from Golden Rose and looks like this.
Isn't it gorgeous? I have cool toned skin so not every shade of gold looks good on me, but this is just right. It's not one of those yellow golds but it isn't rose gold either. I'm sure it would be very flattering on a lot of skin tones. It's also packed with tons of shimmer so it won't go unnoticed. To me it looks similar to OPI Honey Ryder but I can't say for sure because I don't own that one.
Application was good but this does need 3 coats because it's not that opaque. I only own one other Holiday shade and from my experience it's harder to remove compared to textured polishes from other brands. So with this one I started with a peel-off base coat to make removal easier. As usual I couldn't stay away from adding a top coat to see how it looks. It needs a good 2 coats of top coat to become completely smooth and the top coat doesn't make a huge difference because it's very sparkly both with and without it.
All in all, I'm really happy with this shade. If you live in Romania you can get Golden Rose polishes from their website. They have tons of nail polish collections so there's something for everyone in there.

What a lovely neutral looking texture. It looks great on you too.
This color is beautiful and it looks great on you!
Culoarea este senzationala, foarte eleganta, si imi place in ambele moduri adica cu top coat si si fara!

Points Unknown - GSAPP Spring 2019

Society is increasingly dependent on data and computation, a dependence that often evolves invisibly, without any critical assessment or accountability. In New York City, with its mandate to make data public, students have an opportunity to learn how to question data through journalistic lines of inquiry: What data are made public? What data are kept hidden? Who was involved with what data are included and excluded? Who wasn't? What do they say about life in the city? How are neighborhoods rendered in data and what are the consequences of those representations? What undiscovered stories can be found in the data?

This course was designed and is taught as a bridge between disciplines — journalism and architecture. In journalism, data has emerged as an essential component of the trade, and yet working with spatial data, both as products in stories and, more critically, as emerging and little-explored tools for reporting, continues to be a novelty. In parallel, and in spite of their training in visual literacy and basic map-making skills, architects too frequently treat spatial data as a neutral backdrop into which their designs will be inserted. Literacy with spatial data analysis, mapping and storytelling have yet to become an integral part of the design process. Spatial training paired with journalistic techniques can serve as a missing "integrator" of data and the real world — providing lessons, stories, and designs that travel beyond the boroughs of New York.

Points Unknown will provide students an opportunity to explore new forms of site analysis. Through pairing the processes of architecture and techniques of journalism, this course will explore sites of New York City and the Hudson Valley Region. Students will propose a site to investigate from a set of site topics identified for their unique connection to the city, their centrality to demographic populations, and their environmental impact — water, waste, transit, justice, and ecology & resiliency.

Students will work in groups under the direction of a practicing journalist who will serve as editor to help groups explore and report on their site, spending the semester researching and constructing a geospatial narrative. Students will learn how to investigate the site and will select a particular issue to address. They will conduct research, interviews, perform exploratory and advanced data analysis, and learn various geospatial visualization techniques to produce a comprehensive narrative. From spatial association to pattern analysis, geostatistics to classification, students will employ statistical and analytical processes that both informs their reporting and defines their narratives.

The final output will come in the form of a presentation that successfully highlights an identified problem of the site, posits evidence through novel implementations of data, and provides a comprehensive narrative through geospatial representations. In addition, the research will surface recommendations for site intervention.

            Course Objectives

A wide array of available spatial-visualization tools can extend journalistic practice, helping reporters better find, understand, and tell stories. These same tools can expose the invisible spaces, forces, and environments that architecture, urban design, and planning students must engage, navigate, and learn to represent as part of their spatial toolkit.

Points Unknown will task students with producing cartographic narratives, investigating a site utilizing principles borrowed from both journalistic and architectural practice.

Key objectives include:

Building core competency in spatial analysis and visualization, including data acquisition, cleaning, analyzing and visualizing; multi-criteria decision analysis; spatial statistics and network analysis

Producing a cohesive cartographic narrative that tells a compelling story about a site

Introducing core journalistic training, including reporting and interviewing techniques, into architectural and design practice practice

Integrating design principles and spatial and data analysis into journalistic practice

            Grading

Each class will commence with a discussion based on readings assigned in the previous session. Students should participate in these discussions, and instructors will ensure that all students in the class are actively engaged. Class participation will be wrapped into your attendance grade.

The core deliverable of this course is a group assignment due at the end of the semester, and the majority of assignments work towards producing graphics and narratives to be incorporated in the final. Despite this, all mapping (4) and reporting (3) assignments will be completed, submitted, and graded individually.

            Final Output

            The final output for the course will come in the form of a presentation that successfully highlights an identified problem of the site, posits evidence through novel implementations of data, and provides a comprehensive narrative through geospatial representations. In addition, the research conducted will surface recommendations for site intervention.

This QI protocol to reduce LP, antibiotic use, and hospitalization in febrile infants 29-60 days was very effective and did not miss any serious bacterial infections (SBI) post-implementation.
More institutions are moving toward risk stratification prior to LP in febrile infants 29-60 days. But is this safe?
In this single center in Connecticut, they developed an evidence-based QI protocol, based on modified Rochester criteria, to manage febrile infants 29-60 days old, with a goal of reducing invasive testing (i.e. LP), unnecessary antibiotic use, and unnecessary hospitalization. There were 220 patients before the QI protocol and 130 after. They found that the rate of LP dropped from 32% to 0%, antibiotic use from 30% to 1%, and hospitalization from 17% to 2%. There were no missed SBIs post-implementation. This is encouraging. Bear in mind, this is a small, single center study. But it shows this pilot was safe and effective in its objectives. What is this magical protocol? See below. Imagine if the statistically derived PECARN rule we covered yesterday was used.
