Q: NHibernate Transactions on Reads I have read the documentation and explanation on why it is highly recommended to use transactions on read operations in NH. However, I still haven't totally "bought" into it yet. Can someone take a stab at explaining it without just telling me to RTFM, which I have already done? ;)

A: What the others have said is true, but they've not pointed out that the problem with not controlling transactions yourself is that if you perform several NHibernate operations without an explicit transaction, each of these operations will take place in separate transactions.
So you can easily get inconsistency between the operations. By explicitly starting an NHibernate transaction then performing the operations in it, you're guaranteed consistency across these operations.
This is, of course, true for ANY data access layer that implicitly starts transactions for you if you do not. It's not limited to NHibernate.

A: var fooIdFromDb = ExecuteQuery("Select Id from Foo where something = somethingelse");
var barsFromDb = ExecuteQuery("Select * from Bar where FooId = " + fooIdFromDB);

What if some other transaction deletes rows from Bar between the two queries? You will have issues with phantom data. This is not an NHibernate specific issue. You will have the same problem with any other kind of database access without using transactions. You should read the manual about transactions in general instead of the NHiberante manual.

A: Let's focus on what happens if you would not use transactions. It's customary, but not mandatory, that you close the Session at the end of processing, but before you start reading the data (i.e., the View). This method is propagated under the term "Open Session in View" (though it obviously has a pattern for preventing read before close). This pattern is often used in web application where the session is opened when the request arrives and closed just before writing to the response stream.
(N)Hibernate needs a session and a transaction. When you read without using an explicit transaction, the transaction will be setup for you. When you read after a transaction is committed, the behavior depends on NH configuration and driver.
Both ODBC and JDBC do not define what happens when a connection is closed and there's uncommitted or unrollbacked data. When the connection is reopened, it is possible that a new transaction is automatically started.
Using non-transactional access can only be used together with setting auto-commit explicitly in the NHibernate configuration. If not, the default of the driver is used and it may work, or may not work.
In short, there are many shortcomings and undefined behaviors when you do not use transactions on reads. It will work often, but this depends on the configuration, the applied patterns, the drivers. There's a large chance you get LazyInitializationExceptions, which is a common result of read after commit without opening a new transaction.
The "best practice" is to use one transaction for read/write and one other for read-only. This is described briefly in the previous link, section "Can I use two transactions in a session" but requires more of your implementation.
It is not only "use transactions for read", it is also: "use the same transaction you use for writing for reading". (and then, while this is true, actual application will depend on your current patterns, how many tiers there are, caching and configuration).
Update: expanded a bit, removed some ambiguities

A: also:
Forgoing the use of explicit transactions has the effect of nulling the 2nd level cache.

A: This post from one of the authors might have your answer:

Even if we are only reading data, we
  want to use a transaction, because
  using a transaction ensure that we get
  a consistent result from the database.
  NHibernate assume that all access to
  the database is done under a
  transaction, and strongly discourage
  any use of the session without a
  transaction.
Leaving aside the safety issue of
  working with transactions, the
  assumption that transactions are
  costly and we need to optimize them is
  a false one. As already mentioned,
  databases are always running in
  transaction. And databases have been
  heavily optimized to work with
  transactions. The question is whatever
  this is per statement or per batch.
  There is some amount of work that need
  to be done to create and dispose a
  transaction, and having to do it per
  statement is actually more costly than
  doing it per batch.

Fresh off the success of his pop-up shop on Ossington (extended three months past its expected close date) and celebrating five years of being in business, designer Philip Sparks is opening his first standalone retail space in an airy former garage just off Ossington on Foxley. Though it looks tiny from the exterior, the space is deceptively large—there's a hidden downstairs level almost twice the size of the main floor. The shop is replete with the requisite knick-knacks of many new store (and restaurant) openings, like vintage roller skates and typewriters, but these curios actually have some backstory: Sparks has owned one of the typewriters for years (it was actually used to fashion a modified version of his logo signage) and picked up the others over years of visiting flea markets with his partner, Now magazine's Andrew Sardone. The official opening is this Saturday, with more merchandise for men and women coming in daily (Sparks says it should be fully stocked by the end of March), but the entire collection is not yet in store.
Unfortunately, shoes won't be available this season, since Sparks manufactures them in Portugal and says the economic climate there doesn't make dealing with production a simple task. Our favourites were the mackintosh in taupe with navy blue piping ($650), the rusty red trousers ($250) and the patterned Bermuda shorts ($295) (the shorts match a blazer but no matter what the runways suggest, we can't condone shorts and a blazer together). In accessories, the buttery lemon-yellow briefcase ($595) was a winner, as were the wide braided belts ($120) from a Toronto-based company that's been in business since World War II (Sparks is mum on which one, not wanting others to get wind of where he sources the fabric). No one could miss the store, since its all-glass front is like a beacon to all those leaving Ideal Coffee—but if you somehow get lost, look for the gigantic lit green arrow sign Sparks found at a salvage shop in the Junction. He says, "I knew if I could find one of those, people would come." We'd call Sparks Toronto's Kevin Costner, but we wouldn't want to insult him.

For Sale by Owner ??
makes some interesting points about the disadvantages that arise when an owner sells a house without the help of an agent. However, a couple comments are in order.
Like most articles we see on this topic, the author cites studies that show that houses sold directly by an owner typically sell for substantially less money — exactly 20% less in this case. The study that allegedly shows this is not referenced.
While it is true that For-Sale-by-Owner (FSBO) houses sell for less money than those with an agent involved, the differential is not nearly that large. Our own in-house studies show that For Sales By Owner properties in metro Denver typically sell for prices that are 4% to 6% less than the sale prices of houses sold where an agent is involved.
This differential is substantial and significant. Most agents charge sellers a fee in that range. Bottom-line: It turns out that most owners that sell without an agent end up doing all the work themselves, but don't put any more money in their pocket for their effort. They are out their time and don't have any more money to show for it.
One of the reasons that By Owner properties sell for less money is because of Items #2 and #3 in the article. Through Multiple Listing Services, networking with other agents and internet agreements, real estate agents get much more exposure for a given property. Increased exposure means greater likelihood of finding a better and more motivated buyer than is found with limited exposure as a For-Sale-by-Owner seller.
Be sure to read Item #1 in the article. It makes an excellent point that many By Owner property owners do not consider.

Plenary Sessions:
Dr Elena Verdú
McMaster University, Hamilton, ON
Dr Elena Verdú is a physician-researcher and an associate proffessor in the Department of Health Sciences at McMaster University, situated in Hamilton, Ontario. A gastroenterologist, Dr Verdú explores the role of microbiota in the physiopathology of chronic inflammatory disorders, such as inflammatory bowel disease and coeliac disease. Specifically, she studies how commensal bacteria interact with host tissue in order to prevent disease susceptibility. Her team is also interested in the mechanisms by which probiotic bacteria affect communication within the gut-brain axis. Dr Verdú and her laboratory use a vast array of molecular models, animal models and translational approaches. Elena Verdú also holds the Canada Research Chair in Inflammation, Microbiota and Nutrition.
Dr. Pieter Cullis
University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC
Dr. Pieter Cullis is Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, BC. A recognized leader in the fields of lipids, biological membranes and liposomal drug delivery systems, Dr. Cullis aims to further the understanding of membrane structure and function, thereby informing current therapeutic strategies. His team is particularly interested in the use of liposomal nanoparticulate (LN) systems to optimize drug delivery. In effect, his team investigates the potential of LN systems to deliver siRNA and various genetic immunostimulatory drugs, as well as the encapsulation of conventional chemotherapeutics in an effort to improve their efficacy in cancer therapy. Both researcher and inventor, Dr. Cullis has also co-founded multiple biotechnology companies over the years, most recently, Acuitas Pharmaceuticals and Precision NanoSystems. Over the course of his impressive career, he has authored more than 300 scientific articles and been named in more than 45 patents. He is also author the book titled The Personalized Medicine Revolution, published in February 2015.
Dr. Marie-Ève Tremblay
Laval University, Quebec, QC
Dr. Marie-Ève Tremblay is assistant professor in the Department of Molecular Medicine at Laval University in Quebec City, QC. Her research focuses on the role of microglia in learning and memory. In fact, recent work suggests that these immune cells contribute dynamically to normal brain function, playing a critical – and until now, unsuspected – role in neural circuitry remodeling. Dr. Tremblay seeks therefore to determine which molecular mechanisms microglia use to fulfill these roles and to investigate their involvement in the pathology of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Her work has notably revealed the existence of new microglial cells, known as 'dark microglia'. These cells show signs of oxidative stress, giving them a dark appearance when viewed under the electron microscope, and are abundant in various pathological states, including AD. Dr. Marie-Ève Tremblay previously completed two post-doctoral fellowships at the Rochester Medical Center and at Wisconsin-Madison University, and is recipient of the Banting Research Foundation grant, attributed to new, exceptional investigators in biomedical research in their first few years of appointment at a Canadian university.

Amblyopia, also known as a "lazy eye", is described as reduced vision in one eye compared to the other. There are rare forms of amblyopia that involve both eyes. Amblyopia is the most common cause of partial or total blindness in one eye in children.
The term "lazy eye" is misleading because the eye is not lazy, in fact, it is a developmental problem in the nerve connecting the eye to the brain, affecting the brain's ability to use both eyes together. It is not a problem in the eye itself, the brain actively ignores the visual input from the misaligned eye, leading to amblyopia in that eye.
In addition to poor visual acuity, people with amblyopia are more prone to having difficulties with depth perception, eye movements related to reading, and visual decision making while driving.
It is important to note that, because amblyopia typically is a problem of infant vision development, symptoms of the condition can be difficult to find out, symptoms may include noticeably favoring one eye than the other, an eye turn (either upward downward outward or inward) or a tendency to bump into objects on one side.
The best way to identify children who are at risk for or already have amblyopia is performing comprehensive eye examinations.
Amblyopia can be treatable at any age, although the earlier the problem is found and treated, the more successful the outcomes tend to be.

Broadening the creative scope of traditional paper folding art This is a practice-based research project that explores the balance between imitation and creativity through using the medium of paper folding. I argue that imitation is a learning process and stimulus for creativity to emerge in contemporary art and design practice. The approach involves imitating the traditional paper folding guidelines and then reconstructing new subject identities with the emerging creative ideas. The aim of this project is to break the tradition of the limitations of paper folding, through inheriting art experience and creative strategies from classical Chinese philosophical approaches with a focus on ink painting aesthetics. The outcome of this research project is a series of art works as exploration into the fusion of imitation and creativity in the medium of paper folding, based on a fusion of Western and Chinese approaches of art making. This project is constituted of 80% practice-based work, accompanied by 20% exegesis as a complement.

  .listen((query) async {
    List<Book> books = <Book>[];
    for (var documentChange in query.documentChanges) {
      var book = await Book.fromMap(documentChange.document.data);
      books.add(book);

Fantastic releases. Really happy to see the Ital Foundation 12" and Peter Hunnigale. Could one hope to get the Kevin Wilson - Prophets from the album with a dub and also Kevin Wilson - This Time (Ital Foundation 7") re-released? Incredible songs both of them. When it comes to Peter Hunnigale I thought I was alone in rating it. I used to play it quite often a couple of years ago. Always went down better with a non-reggae crowd. But a really groovy tune.
Never heard the Gary Senator. Cool little piece.
Also I've got to say that I really love that you reissue some records that show the more funky side of reggae artists (speaking of the Hunnigale). The B.B. Seaton Studio One 12" from earlier this year was one of the finest reissues I've bought in a long long time. A real mertheler dance track.
I don't come here often, thanks for feedback RB & Kalcidis.

You're killing it with these reissues. The Glen Adams is fantastic (and I'm really happy you're checking for these left-field groovy reggae productions). Found out about it after it had gained a following and it has been too expensive to pick up. So very happy about a reissue.

Hochul signs legislation providing access to benefit information for National Guard members
Mon, Aug 8th 2022 04:20 pm
Legislation requires Division of Military and Naval Affairs to provide information on benefits for National Guard members
Gov. Kathy Hochul on Monday signed legislation (S.666-A/A.5832-A) that requires information on the benefits and services available to National Guard members in both written form and on the Division of Military and Naval Affairs website. This includes services such as family benefits; morale, welfare and recreation discounts; veterans benefits; insurance; and financial assistance.
"Our National Guard members put their lives on the line every day to keep New Yorkers across the state safe, and they are owed a great deal for their sacrifice," Hochul said. "As my administration continues to strive towards transparency and clarity in all facets of government, this bill will help our National Guard members clearly understand the benefits that are offered to them for their service to New Yorkers."
New York Adjutant Gen. Maj. Gen. Ray Shields said, "Taking care of our service members is our highest priority, this legislation to provide updates and current benefit information to our soldiers and airmen is important to every member of the New York National Guard. Recruiting and retaining service members and strengthening the support for our military families across the Division of Military and Naval Affairs means always striving to keep members informed by using every tool and technology at our disposal. We thank Gov. Hochul and the Legislature for their continued support."
State Sen. James Sanders Jr. said, "As a senator and a Marine Corps veteran, I truly care about our military personnel and I am always looking for ways to improve their lives. This bill would allow National Guard members to have a place to find information on benefits and services available to them and their families, which is a really important resource."
Assembly member Marianne Buttenschon said, "The National Guard play a vital role in military service for this great nation. I have the honor to represent Rome, New York, where the 224 New York Air Defense Group at the Eastern Air Defense Sector is stationed. Three hundred dedicated guard members serve and provide the Air Defense to the North East sector of the United States. This legislation will provide the information on benefits that these members and their families deserve. I want to thank the governor for signing this crucial legislation."

Porsche 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series.
There are few vehicles in the automotive universe more iconic than the Porsche 911.
Over the years, the rear-engine sports car has gotten bigger, faster, and more technologically advanced. But its spirited driving dynamics and on-track capabilities have continued to make it a favorite among enthusiasts worldwide.
You often hear the complaint that all current 911s look pretty much the same. And if you ask critics such as Jeremy Clarkson, host of Amazon's "Grand Tour" show, he'll tell you that all Porsche 911s since the model's debut in 1963 look identical.
The truth is, most of the various versions of the current generation of 911s do look similar, yet they can all be identified by numerous subtle but important differences.
Like Taco Bell in the fast-food industry, what Porsche has managed to do so successfully is create multiple iterations of the 911 by mixing and matching the same ingredients, and packaging them in a lot of different ways. And if you've ever driven a 911, you'll probably agree with me in saying there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
So here it is, the current lineup of Porsche's 911 menu.
... and the Cabriolet is the convertible version of the Carrera.
... and the Carrera 4 Cabriolet is the convertible variant.
... and here's the convertible Cabriolet Carrera S.
... and the Carrera 4S Cabriolet is the convertible edition.
The Carrera GTS is a step up from the Carrera S. With turbochargers even larger than those found on the S, the GTS packs a stout 450 horsepower.
... and the Carrera GTS Cabriolet is yet another convertible version!
... and Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet is, naturally, the accompanying convertible.
The Targa 4 is a Carrera 4 with an awesome electric lift-away roof!
While the Targa 4S is a Carrera 4S with the special "Targa" roof.
The Targa 4 GTS is a Carrera 4 GTS with the Targa roof.
The latest generation of the legendary Turbo gets a 3.8-liter, 540 horsepower version of the twin-turbocharged flat-six found in other 911 models. Thanks to a pair of monster turbochargers, the Turbo has become a benchmark vehicle for aspiring supercars everywhere.
There's a Turbo Cabriolet, as well.
The Turbo S is a Turbo with a 580 horsepower engine.
And of course ... a Turbo S Cabriolet is available, too!
Then there's the Turbo S Exclusive Series. It's the Turbo S with 27 more horsepower.
To create the 911 GT2 RS, Porsche took the motor from the Turbo S and bolted larger turbochargers on it — boosting horsepower to 700. The GT2 is rear-wheel-drive with four-wheel-steering.
Finally, there's the vaunted GT3. It's the track-oriented member of the 911 family. In the spirit of purity, its 500 horsepower, 4.0-liter engine is naturally aspirated — making it the only current generation 991.2 to refrain from turbocharging.

Turner hires Wayne Gretzky; Big name? Yes; The Great One will have to prove that he's no on-air rookie
Hockey on TV needs help. More importantly, the sport needs more fans. Can Wayne Gretzky produce?
The league's ratings lag badly behind the top three sports, football, basketball and baseball. With the NHL's move next year from NBC to both Turner and ESPN, the new rightsholders are recruiting talent. The two networks will share the national broadcasts through the next seven seasons.
ESPN and Turner have the NBA as well, so the programming departments of both networks will be quite busy too. Each has overflow options. Turner has TBS, TNT and truTV. ESPN, owned by Disney, has a flock beginning with ABC and the Deuce. The company's newest revenue generator is streaming and ESPN+ is off to a good start growing its subscriber base. Disney's management is betting that avid NHL fans will grow the sub rolls further because ESPN+ will run NHL games too.
ESPN is no newcomer to hockey. It had NHL rights in the past and decisions on play-by-play voices begin within its own stable. In the 90s and through 2003, Gary Thorne, soon 73, brought electricity to the network's coverage. He was terrific, presiding over a dozen Stanley Cup Finals. At this point of his career, Thorne hosts a popular podcast, The Sports Rivals. He had been doing Orioles play-by-play on television until the season before last.
During the corresponding years of ESPN's previous rights, Steve Levy (left) was very much in the act. Levy demonstrated his passion for the NHL and his durability, broadcasting three of the longest games in the modern era. While he excels doing football and is superb in the studio, his early career goal was to be a hockey announcer. He'll get his chance again.
Sean McDonough (left) too will likely be very much involved in the network's NHL game presentation. McDonough can do just about any sport imaginable and do it well. He grew up with lots of hockey in New England.
Turner has already come to terms with the deserving Kenny Albert. So just as dad Marv retires from the company, son Kenny joins the network as its lead NHL voice.
For now, NBC is completing its 16th season as the NHL's exclusive network. The Peacocks brought innovation to hockey on television. Management launched a Winter Outdoor Classic, a Wednesday night series, and an Inside the Glass commentating position. It was all well stitched together by the vocally smooth and imaginative Doc Emrick.
The irreverent Barry Melrose (left), a former NHL coach, is part of the ESPN family. I would imagine he'll get lots more face time when the league reconnects with the Bristolites in the fall. Barry's slick, funny and unpredictable.
Turner has a history of producing the best periphery studio programming in sports. Inside the NBA with Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith, Shaquille O'Neal and Ernie Johnson is as good as they come.
But it will be hard to find a hockey character like Barkley who entertains, opines and has human foibles to which viewers relate. Ask fans to mention the name most identified with Turner's basketball broadcasts and the answer will be Charles Barkley whose freshness and flippancy served as a breakthrough of sorts in formatting sports TV's shoulder programming.
So if you're Turner with no NHL experience, what do you do about studio coverage? In time, the network will have its third owner in a matter of six years. In 2016, AT&T acquired Turner from Time Warner and just recently Discovery announced it was buying AT&T's media assets including Turner Sports and CNN.
So Turner made a big splash last week announcing that the Great One, Wayne Gretzky, will be its marquee name of NHL coverage. It had to cost the network a pretty penny. But who's counting in these days of free money from the Fed?
Will Gretzky be funny, entertaining, transparent, instructional or critical when necessary? Will he let his hair down once in a while? Will he attract new fans or new viewers? Is he charismatic on-air? Sure, he was dominant on the ice, winning four Stanley Cups and his name, of course, is striking to even the hockey novice.
But will his commentary be vanilla? Can he convert his stardom into big TV ratings? Tough to say.
Gretzky did some work for ESPN+, hosting Detail, a series about his own Stanley Cup achievements. So he's not entirely inexperienced.
But listening closely to Gretzky when he was interviewed by television's Graham Bensinger, his voice level was restrained, he showed little emotion, his tone didn't fluctuate much, he sounded contained and not very inspiring.
The most he shared about himself was that he was superstitious, putting on his right skate first, his right elbow pad first and so on. He shared no entertaining or gripping stories about himself, other than he'd occasionally have pizza or hotdogs before a game. For the millions that the Turner boys will pay him, he'll need to do more.
There have been many big names on television who never lived up to the hype at the time that they were hired. There were others who were debatably bad. Some names that hit the top of my head are: Bruce Arians, Shane Battier, Jerry Glanville, Sandy Koufax, Joe Montana, Scottie Pippen and Bill Walsh.
Wayne Gretzky is the NHL's greatest name ever. But for the most part he'll be a rookie on television next season. Hockey needs him to galvanize viewers. We wish him the best.

I hope he succeeds. But I'm reminded of Tim McCarver saying that you basically have to forget you were on the field and prepare like a broadcaster.

Some didn't click: I recall reading that Joe Namath worked hard, but it just didn't come off.

Mining industry played a significant role in enhancing economic growth and poverty reduction in resource-rich countries. A number of natural resources based developing countries like Ghana and Nigeria's national economy heavily reliant on the mining industry. The Mining industry is the key source of employment and revenue in these countries but mining industry highly dominated and operated by the foreign multinational mining companies. Although the success of the mining industry, current statistics showed that mining has aggravated poverty in the developing countries like Ghana. In this respect, this article illustrates the impact of mining on Ghana's economy as well explains how global mining created poverty especially in the local community in Ghana. These circumstances started through the structural adjustment policies of the World Bank (WB) and International Monetary Fund (IMF), which has created an entirely new set of economic, social and environmental problems for Ghana's local community. Eventually, mineral-led development has not lived up to its rhetorical promise - poverty alleviation in the developing countries.

Your post on the complementarian question was excellent Mark. I've waited a week before posting to follow up, in part because I didn't want anything else to deflect attention from your reflections on that important matter. There were dozens of comments left here at the T4G and the conversation was all over the place in the blogosphere.
Two notes before I make a few remarks. First, as I was preparing to post tonight, I think I noticed new formatting for the T4G site going up. Looks good. Way to go team. Second, I plan to start blogging through our T4G statement to give some context to it. Hope you, C.J. and Al will join me.
Now, as to the issue of younger conservative evangelicalism and complementarianism, I think your observations are spot on – though I want to point out that guys like Harry Reeder, Kent Hughes and Ray Ortlund (who were in that meeting and who are over 50) have led brilliantly and faithfully in the whole area of biblical manhood and womanhood, not to mention our own dear C.J. who has been on this issue like white on rice for years. Once again, C.J. shows his world-class discernment!
Allow me to reiterate a few points you made, as a public expression of solidarity, and to explain why I think this is so important, and warranted inclusion in our T4G statement.
One, the denial of complementarianism undermines the church's practical embrace of the authority of Scripture (thus eventually and inevitably harming the church's witness to the Gospel). The gymnastics required to get from "I do not allow a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man," in the Bible, to "I do allow a woman to teach and to exercise authority over a man" in the actual practice of the local church, are devastating to the functional authority of the Scripture in the life of the people of God.
By the way, this is one reason why I think we just don't see many strongly inerrantist-egalitarians (meaning: those who hold unwaveringly to inerrancy and also to egalitarianism) in the younger generation of evangelicalism. Many if not most evangelical egalitarians today have significant qualms about inerrancy, and are embracing things like trajectory hermeneutics, etc. to justify their positions. Inerrancy or egalitarianism, one or the other, eventually wins out.
Two, and following on the first point, the church's confidence in the clarity of Scripture in undermined, because if you can get egalitarianism from the Bible, you can get anything from the Bible. Paul may be excruciating to read aloud and hear read in a dominant feminist culture, but he's not obscure in his position! In 1 Timothy 2:11-12 he says, "A woman must quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness. I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet." Elsewhere, 1 Corinthians 14:34-35, we find the confirming parallel to this previous pronouncement: "The women are to keep silent in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak, but are to subject themselves, just as the Law also says. If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is improper for a woman to speak in church." These verses (and many others) are uncomfortably clear and certainly politically incorrect, and though some of us may be consoled by "exegesis" that shows that they don't really mean that women can't preach, teach, rule in the church, yet there remains this nagging feeling that such interpretive moves are the victory of present opinion over clear but unpopular biblical teaching. Cultural cooption of the church's reading of the Bible, robs the church's ability to speak prophetically to the culture and to live distinctively in the culture, which in turns undermines the church's Gospel witness.
Three, because the very ideal of equality championed by egalitarianism (whether secular or Christian) is a permutation of a particular strand of Enlightenment thought, and because this particular ideal of equality is actually alien to the biblical anthropology and ethic, whenever and wherever it is read into the text of Scripture and its principles are worked out consistently, there is a competition with a biblical view of manhood and womanhood. For instance, try to find this view of equality in Genesis 1 – it's just not there. Consequently, commitment to evangelical egalitarianism opens the door for two competing but incompatible ethical norms and ideals within the individual, family and church. If the egalitarian impulse wins out, the church is compromised precisely at the point where paganism is assaulting the church today. For, as Peter Jones has brilliantly demonstrated, paganism wants to get rid of Christian monotheism by getting rid of the Creator-creature distinction. And one way paganism likes to do that is through gender confusion. Hence, the bi-sexual shaman, the sacred feminine, goddess worship, etc. Paganism understands that one of the best ways to prepare the way for pagan polytheistic monism over against the transcendent Creator God of the Bible is to undermine that God's image in the distinctiveness of male and female, and in the picture of Christ and the church in marital role distinctions, and in the male eldership of the church. Egalitarianism is just not equipped for that fight, and in fact simply capitulates to it.
Four, when the biblical distinctions of maleness and femaleness are denied, Christian discipleship is seriously damaged because there can be no talk of cultivating distinctively masculine Christian virtue or feminine Christian virtue. Yes, there are many Christian ethical norms that are equally directed and applicable to male and female disciples, but there are also many ethical directives in the NT enjoined distinctly upon Christian men as men and Christian women as women. Furthermore, the NT (and the Bible as a whole) recognizes that men and women are uniquely vulnerable to different kinds of temptations, and thus need gender-specific encouragement in battling against them in the course of Christian discipleship. Evangelical egalitarianism, fearful as it is that any acknowledged difference between men and women could set the stage for inequality of role or status, is utterly unprepared to help the believer with these distinctive commands or temptations. Egalitarian discipleship of Christian men and women has, then, an inherent androgynous bias. But that is not how God made us. He made us male and female. Thus Paul warns Christian men against the soul-peril of "effeminacy" without in any way criticizing (and, indeed, admiring and encouraging) the "femininity" of women. We need masculine male Christians and feminine female Christians, and that kind of discipleship requires an understanding of and commitment to complementarianism. Hence, denial of complementarianism compromises Gospel discipleship.
For these reasons and more, Mark, I think we were right to "deny that any church can confuse these issues without damaging its witness to the Gospel." But we'll have a chance to say more on this later.


It really is encouraged to search for the common net profit of the form of venture you desire to carry out there in the city.
The National Procedure for the Survey of Prices and Indices of Civil Building – SINAPI – delivers regular monthly, for all people that desire to download (in PDF), the fees and indices in the civil building.
Sad to say the tables are only accessible for download in PDF format, not possible to automate with Excel spreadsheets.
It really is worth remembering the exact same enterprise, in numerous cities, can have distinctive profitability.
The spreadsheet is full of a study of a mid-level residential residential project positioned in Fortaleza (CE) and here the net revenue from 17% within this sort of organization is regarded as excellent.
They are tables that enable you to search, import or manipulate prices, codes, compositions, inputs or use functions for example Excel's advanced spot function (PROCV). Our Sinapi tables will not be ONLY converted. Now with iSinapi system it is possible to generate budgets (With BDI, Memory of Calculation, and so on.) utilizing Sinapi inputs and compositions and with only one click generate excel reviews in several formats.
They're the ONES of your Brazilian industry which have finish tables, have columns like: Coefficient, Unit value, Part, Class, Group, Thorough grouping of the composition, total price and way more, almost everything to facilitate specialist use.
From now to the updates with the SINAPI base, along with the long term bases that I will seek to make out there, will probably be created in the new internet site and not on this one particular. For those who use it routinely I suggest that you bookmark the new web page due to the fact sooner or later in the future it'll be disabled. All information currently out there is now available on the new address.
"SINAPI's labor input costs are improved from the Social Fees expenses incurred over the payroll of wages as a result from the CLT – Consolidation of Labor Laws, the Federal Constitution of 1988, as well as particular laws The calculation of percentages that focus on labor inputs is carried out for every Brazilian capital, updated when required, and considers regional data for example turnover, nearby holidays and rainy days, for area reality. "
These and other info can be found about the Caixa website.
Within the file with the link under, extra updated, look for the State corresponding to the Social Charges that you want.
These worksheets, produced by Sinduscon-PE, consist of the Analytical Compositions of SINAPI, previously with an input selling price, calculating the final cost of every services to Pernambuco, paid and not discharged. We keep in mind that there's variation of cents in relation to official prices of SINAPI, because of rounding. Exactly the same really should be adjusted, in line with the have to have to work with the composition.
