War on Christmas: Lock and Load
Posted on November 15, 2014 by maha
Sorry I've been absent; I'm hysterically busy these days. I'm cross-posting something I just wrote on my religion blog, so here's something.
The Christmas television commercials preceded Halloween this year, and I see some of my neighbors have their Christmas decorations up already.
Yes, folks, the annual War on Christmas season has begun.
At Patheos, Zen teacher and Unitarian Universalist minister James Ford writes "Why I'm Afraid of Christians: Or the Briefest Meditation on Wishing Happy Holidays to All."
There is something hanging in the back of my mind when living in a country dominated by a group of people who have an ideology that puts me at the moment of my death firmly into the fires of hell for, well, forever. And it's hard not to be vaguely aware of how easy a step it is from seeing someone as firewood in the future to seeing one as killable in the present tense.
Of course, it isn't the only example of this latent threat of violence. Politicians decrying that atheists can vote comes to mind, too. Pandering to the religious majority, with just a hint of violence in the air. Just a hint. And personally I don't see much different in the historical rhetoric of jihad and crusade.
But the constant declarations today of people in the religious majority lamenting how they've been put upon by having to share space with people of other religions or none is the really scary thing. Violence against religious minorities is a once, and I see no reason to think not, a future thing.
How likely is it that reactionary Christians in the U.S. might become violent? Violence linked to religion is on the rise around the world, according to the Pew Research Religion and Public Life Project. Is it possible religious violence might increase in the U.S. as well?
This may seem unlikely, but do see "Rumblings of Theocratic Violence" by Frederick Clarkson. Clarkson documents that there is indeed a large and well-connected subculture of extreme Christians in the U.S. who are calling for armed insurrection against the government. Some of these extremists are forging ties with the neo-confederate movement and forming paramilitary units.
As I wrote in Rethinking Religion, "religious" violence often is about something else and is just packaged as religion. What we're seeing around the world is a lot of right-wing reactionism pushing back against cultural change and modernity generally, and for some reason right-wing reactionism these days likes to dress itself up as religion. Hence, a rise in what appears to be "religious" violence.
But there are two qualities found in most violent mass movements that need to be understood —
Passionate hatred can give meaning and purpose to an empty life. Thus people haunted by the purposelessness of their lives try to find a new content not only by dedicating themselves to a holy cause but also by nursing a fanatical grievance. A mass movement offers them unlimited opportunities for both. — Eric Hoffer, The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements (1951)
I propose in Rethinking Religion that fervent belief in a holy cause — which doesn't necessarily have to be religious — by itself doesn't usually drive people into violence. A holy cause combined with a fanatical grievance, however, will do nicely. If you look at violent groups around the world today, I believe you will see they all harbor fanatical grievances. In their minds, they have been wronged and abused and are entitled to payback.
The last couple of posts, "'Religious Violence' Isn't Just Religious" and "The Christian Right's Pitiful Rearguard Action" both discuss the way the U.S. religious Right cherishes a belief in its own martyrdom, and that holding them to the same anti-discrimination laws as everyone else amounts to discrimination against them. And this is what makes them dangerous. The stronger their sense of fanatical grievance, the more dangerous they are likely to become.
I'm not saying the U.S. religious Right is going to become as extremely dangerous as ISIS. The provocations are not quite so strong — we haven't experienced war here since 1865, and have not suffered occupying foreign powers. But I think the threat they pose is real, and it's a big reason their increasingly hysterical screams of martyrdom have me concerned.

Our rich and powerful conservatives will gladly use the Christianity tool in their toolbox – even if they're not true believers themselves – if they see that it'll gain them more, or complete, power in America.
We have a lot to fear in the next few years.
If a Republican President is elected, with a Republican Congress – and they already have a majority Republican SCOTUS – corporate conservatives and their politicians will gladly use the Christian rubes and loon's as their foot soldiers and enforcers in what will be transformed into The Christian Theocratic Fascist Plutocratic/Oligarchical States of America.
AKA – Pottersville.
Or, better yet – The United States of Jesusland-Reaganville.
People will be told that all of the changes and enforcement will be in service to God and country.
No, not God as in Jesus's Father as the rubes will be told – but Mammon in a robe with an American flagpin, holding the Bible in one hand, and the US Constitution in the other.
The ISIS Barbarians are terrifying – but far from our gates.
They are terrify to the American people – but especially the Christian rubes – because their religious extremism comes from a foreign religion.
Our Christian Taliban members aren't at the gates, but well inside, and have been since the Puritan times.
They are equally as religiously extreme, but seem less terrifying to the people here because they are our good, Christian, church-going, neighbors.
Hard working folks. A bit conservative and obsessed with their church, and a tad awkward socially, but basically, good ol' Heartland Murkins!
And, while many of them seem harmless – now – many of them aren't, and are already actively working to make state bow down to church.
There may be unwitting dupes among even those. But they may not be unwilling dupes, in what they see as a religious crusade.
And the end result will be a complete reversal of everything this country was founded on, and has stood for.
As proven in Russian, Germany, China, and Cambodia, etc., even the most banal unwitting dupes, if they are given the opportunity at a powerful position like an enforcer of order in the new status quo – whether it be to Lenin/Stalin/Hitler/Mao/Pol Pot, or of God's and Jesus's Laws – will be ruthless in the application of force in order to keep their superiors happy, and keep their positions of power.
It takes a very brave person to turn down being a guard at the camp, when the alternative is to be a prisoner herded and guarded in the camp – as many Germans and Slavs found out during WWII.
Most of the courageous people never survived those camps. And the less brave, the surviving guards, enforced the ruthless policies which killed them.
Maybe this rhetoric of mine is all a tad overblown.
And I certainly hope so.
But look at the raving Christian loons on TV, listen to them on radio, talk to the people who go to their churches, or watch or listen to them, and then look at ambitious conservative sociopaths and psychopaths who are their Republican politicians, and the rich and powerful people who support them, and the cowardly, compliant, and complacent MSM, and tell me that what I described 'can't happen here.'
If you believe that, you're a hell of a lot more optimistic than I am.
End of long ranting word-turd.
Have a nice weekend – while you still can! 😉

Look at the vast majority of the terrorism plotted and committed in the USA. What religion is involved?
A year or so ago I watched Cabaret for the first time. The scenes of Brownshirts, starting as roaming groups of thugs and building from there, struck me as being so close to what we're seeing with open carry nuts, screamers at townhall meetings, etc. it's a sad and scary thing to see in my country.

Maybe because I live in a large blue state that's exceptionally tolerant, and certainly because I enjoy going to communion at the large Catholic church around the corner (I am not Catholic), that I don't see this as a big threat. Certainly the potential is there.
This would change for me only when the authorities look the other way. When some Christian fanatic commits an act of violence and gets away with it. Before that, it's certainly a concern, but nothing to lose sleep over.
I am far more interested in the political ramifications of right wing oligarchs mobilizing masses of rubes to gain power. But violence from said rubes – not yet.

The local authoritah and the FBI have recently busted and convicted members of a white supremicist group in lazy old Osceola county. That's where I live. They were planning a full on race war, training with military weapons. The objects of their disaffection were Jews, Muslims, Hispanics in particular, and just non Christian non European folks in general. The ring master got 5 years in the grey bar hotel plus a long probation. Hope the door hits him in the ass. There are many more in these parts that don't cotton to non whites, but they keep it under the radar. We have more than our share of neoconfederates; they like to festoon their trucks with the stars and bars…. pretty easy to pick out in a crowd.

I quickly wrote a little racist and homophobic Christmas poem – with many, many, apologies to Clement C. Moore!
I hope some of you get a few laughs out of this – even if this commenting system ruins the formatting.
But maha, if you find this offensive, you won't hurt my feelings by deleting this.
'Twas the night before Christmas,
When all through the house
Not a creature was stirring –
We were getting ready to ambush some
Secular humanist queer louse
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
Because any movement would explode the IED's there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
Listening to Rush's children's book on CD in their heads.
And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my John Deere cap,
Had just settled behind the couch on the right
By our guns and our ammo.
And some meth so we don't fall into nap.
With a bottle of Jack and a case of Bud Light –
But we didn't want to get too hammered.
I sprang from the behind the couch to see what the fuck was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the aluminum shutters
And threw up the lead sash.
The moon on the NOT-a-breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below,
When, what to my watchful eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer,
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be a secular humanist dressed as St. Nick.
More rapid than fake Bald Eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them
By their male fag stripper names;
"Now, DASHER! now, DANCER! now, PRANCER and VIXEN!
On, COMET! on CUPID! on, DONDER and BLITZEN!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!"
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little gay hoof.
As I drew a gun to my hand, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his face and his clothes were all tarnished with fake ashes and soot;
A bundle full of something he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a dirty Negro pedophile
Waving his wrinkled nut-sack.
His eyes — how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
Mascara and make-up will do that for a fairy.
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little fag mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the carefully manicured beard of his chin was as white as the snow;
The stump of a crack-pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath;
He had a broad face and a little round belly,
That shook, when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
But that didn't fool me;
The wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Quickly let me know we had SOMETHING to dread!
To my wife I yelled, "You fire first
And keep shooting 'til you're sure that that fag's dead!
In he meantime, I'll climb to the top of the roof,
An' blow away them queer deer
With a bang and a poof!
And later for Christmas dinner,
We'll enjoy venison stewed in beer!
And then we'll bury that fat black foof!"
I sprang on the roof where I emptied three clips.
And away they all fell!
And then, laughing, at the top of my lungs I gave a yell:
"Me 'n the Mrs just killed us a secular fag queer!
And he and his fake reindeer's on their way to Hell.
So, "THANK YOU, JESUS!" I want to hear
From you ring like a bell!
Now, HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD-NIGHT!
All y'all all still have a Christmas,
Thanks to those of us on the
Good Christian Right!"
And from then on, this story became known as "'Twas the night before the last Christmas…"
Thanks, Christian Right!

Thanksgiving comes late this year, November 27. Christmas will be upon us so fast after that, most of us won't be ready. That's why I am completing all my Christmas stuff before Thanksgiving. I want to enjoy the Christmas season in a somewhat relaxed manner.

Moonbat: I grew up in a Catholic neighborhood and one of my best friends was a Catholic. She told me once that if a non-Catholic ever attempted to receive communion, (s)he would be struck dead. Glad to see you are still here although if God reads this blog, you may be in trouble.
@grannyeagle – yeah, one of my Catholic friend warned me about this (not the being struck dead part, just that the eucharist is exclusive for Catholics), although the priest at this particular church seems to be pretty open about it.

I agree, also I can't remember a time when the fanatics had such open and prevelant representation in the halls of goverment i.e Ted (anchor baby) Cruz, Gohlmert, Lee, Bachman and many more I just don't care to think about this Sunday morning!
Stephen Stralka on November 16, 2014 at 3:26 pm said:
I think the threat of violence is very real. Or, strictly speaking, the threat of more violence, since of course our reactionary Christians have already become violent.
But I think that the association with white supremacists and neoconfederates will ultimately limit the damage that they can do. The more violent and radical our theocrats become, they more they tend to converge with the other violent movements on the far right. It's the kind of thing where, if they're not actually Nazis themselves, they're way too comfortable with Nazis.
So I don't really see how they could keep their religious insurrection from turning into a race war. And then they would lose very badly.

I'm going off topic – but I found a VERY interesting article that untangles the federal budget in a concise way. We are (for example) spending 6 times as much on the military as we are for SNAP. Mandatory vs discretionary and what's in each – the kind of factual information I frequently wish I had when I'm sure that a statement about federal priorities as exhibited by budgetary allocations is totally bogus.

Persecution is the glue that binds them.. It reminds me of a relationship I had with a girl some 40 odd years ago. We were two emotionally crippled kids who clung to one another in what would be described as an emotional dependence. She bought me a little Precious Moments placard that had the saying, You and me against the world written underneath the artwork. It kinda summed up the state of our unhealthy relationship.

I have long believed that 'most' Muslims have a non-radical view. And I have long believed that they are the only force that can 'defeat' radical Islam. Military strikes against the 'leaders' of radical factions give radical Islam martyrs – and they use the blood to fuel recruiting. How this will happen – moderate Muslim Imams speaking out against the violence and facing the violent response – I am not sure about. If they do not, they will be consumed by radical Islam – but like any religion, they are loathe to speak ill against their own publicly.
I bring that up because <b.exactly the same dynamic exists in the US with radical Christians. I believe most Christian clergy want to do the right thing and they detest the hatred which radicals have cloaked with 'Christianity' that resembles nothing Christ taught. But like moderate Imams, the Christan hierarchy is loathe to call out their brothers of the cloth for the hateful rhetoric. It has to happen – the Christian radicals can only be stripped of their power by Christians familiar with the teachings of Christ.


Sekiro treasure carp scales are a bit less freaky than your usual From Software collectable. They drop from fish that wiggle around in the water segments of Sekiro, ready for you to carve through them with your sword. Regardless of the ethics of it, you're going to want to find Sekiro treasure carp scales so you can buy some of the game's most powerful materials and texts, as well as advance one of the more rewarding quest lines.
Follow our guide through the game's varied settings to find every Sekiro Treasure Carp Scale. The best time to collect all of them is when you pick up the Mibu Breathing Technique after the Corrupted Monk boss battle, so make sure you've got that before you start, so you can dive for scales.
Treasure Carp Scale 1-2: When you land in the Hirata Estate, drop down and jump in the water to your right as you're crossing the bridge. Keep swimming until you see a small rocky platform in the water, where you'll find scale vendor Pot Noble Harunaga. Check the water in the outcrop around him for your first set of scales.
Treasure Carp Scale 3-4: Once you pick up the Mibu Breathing Technique later in the game, come back here and dive underwater for the second carp and a set of two scales.
Treasure Carp Scale 5: Get back up on the bridge then turn around and face the way you came. On the right, you should see a glowing item obscured by a rock. Go hop in and get it. You can also access this one by swimming under the bridge and heading to the left side of the body of water.
Treasure Carp Scale 6-7: Keep advancing through the estate until you reach the Bamboo Thicket Sculptor's Idol. Progress up the path, zip to the grapple on the left and jump in the water. Dive underneath for the first carp, then head forward and in between the wooden bottom of the bridge for the second one which is above the water.
Treasure Carp Scale 8 - From the Mibu Village idol, head into the little outcrop next to where you spawned and you'll see a purple samurai. Wipe him out and pick up the scale next to him.
Treasure Carp Scale 9-10: The Exiled Memorial Mob right next to the Mibu Village idol sells two scales for 500 sen a pop.
Treasure Carp Scale 11: There's a section with a water wheel later in Mibu Village, to the left of the Water Mill idol. Jump in the water and it'll be in there wiggling. Slash it for a scale.
Treasure Carp Scale 12: Once everything goes awry, you'll be forced to gain access to the castle via an underwater moat where the Ashina Castle warp idol used to be. Dive in and head under and you will see a carp scales around the corner before you head through the middle passage.
Treasure Carp Scale 13: Head around the back of the castle to the Old Grave idol, then head behind you to the bridge, where there's a giant moat to the left. Hop in the water and dive in to get this treasure carp and scale.
Treasure Carp Scale 14-15: From the Riven Cave idol, turn around and head into the pool below where you killed the snake/ dropped from the Gun Fort. Dive down to find the first two scales on two treasure carps in the water.
Treasure Carp Scale 16: Whilst you're underwater, keep swimming around and you'll find a glowing item pickup to grab in a rocky outcrop in the depths right below where you hop out for the idol. Nab it for another scale.
Treasure Carp Scale 17-18: We kept this one until near the end as you need to be able to dive. Warp to the Temple Grounds Idol then hop in the water to your left before the monks start attacking you. Dive down and as well as a prayer bead or ancient text there will be two carps to kill for scales.
Treasure Carp Scale 19-21: Warp to the Flower Viewing Stage idol and turn around and head back into the compound full of the creepy alien folks. Head to the left on your way in and you should see a body of water underneath some cracked floorboards. Dive down and resurface and you should be in a room with three more scales and a chest. Get the scales and get the Water of the Palace from the chest.
Treasure Carp Scale 22-33: All of these scales are in the massive water basin in the centre of the Fountainhead Palace. Dive in, explore and kill every carp you can find, as well as dredging the bottom of the water for containers and glowing icons that will have carp scales ready for you to pick up. Main points of interests should be the underwater sunken housing and the giant fish skeleton which is surrounded by Headless enemies. Good luck!
Treasure Carp Scale 34-39: Return to the Water Mill idol and this time progress forward until you reach the locked house with the creatures banging on the door to be let in. Crawl underneath and use the shinobi door to flip up inside of it. Feed the scared NPC in the corner the Water of the Palace that you picked up in Fountainhead. Head back to a bonfire, rest and return to pick up the last five remaining scales.
That wraps up our Treasure Carp Scale guide. If you've followed it all the way through, this guide should leave you with more than enough scales for you to buy every single item from the Pot Noble vendors in the game. You might even have some to spare for Playthrough 2!


This, by the way, only occurs when logged in (browsing as Guest works fine) and does not happen in the main site either.
Any other Firefox users out there suffering from similar issues? I hope Firefox 3.6 can fix whatever it is broken in 3.5.
Yep. I switched to Chrome shortly after updating to Firefox 3.5 -- I only use Firefox for specific tasks throughout the day (because of add-ons).
I can't really comment on the difference between browsing TechSpot as a Guest and my registered account, but there is certainly a significant difference in speed all around on many sites -- which is unfortunate, because Firefox has been my browser of choice for a while now, and the add-ons mean a lot to me.
I'll continue using Chrome as my primary browser until things get sorted with Firefox.
I'm on Firefox 3.6.6 with plenty of plug-ins and about 24 add-ons, running on a normal old laptop with a dual core and 1gig of RAM, and I don't have a problem with TechSpot Forums.
Edit: My bad, this post was since Firefox 3.5, it did have some problems especially with forums like you mentioned.
I keep having them no matter what with the latest version of Firefox 3.x.
Running the FF 4.0 Beta and I'm glad to report that it's smooth sailing all the way, but... no add-ons just yet.

Coronavirus in Vermont: Governor orders more closures in COVID-19 response
Aki Soga
Gov. Phil Scott on Saturday ordered additional business closures, including gyms, nail salons and tattoo parlors, in response to the outbreak of the new coronavirus.
The order "to close all in-person operations" by 8 p.m. Monday covers gyms, fitness centers and similar exercise facilities, hair salons and barbers, nail salons, spas and tattoo parlors.
"As I've said throughout this crisis, I will continue to act to slow the spread of this virus in Vermont because we must protect those at greatest risk of serious illness and ensure they can get the care they need, when they need it," Scott said in a news release.
The order comes less than 48 hours after the state saw the first deaths of patients who had tested positive for the new virus.
The deaths were a man who was in the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in White River Junction and a woman who was a resident of Burlington Health and Rehab in Burlington. Both were over 80 years old.
COVID-19:What are Vermont nursing facilities doing to protect elderly residents from coronavirus?
As of 2 p.m. Friday, the Vermont Department of Health reported 29 positive results for the virus out of 808 tests. The state is monitoring 264 people while 288 have completed their monitoring.
The new coronavirus causes COVID-19 which first appeared in late 2019 in Wuhan, China.
Symptoms of COVID-19 can include fever, cough and breathing trouble. Most develop only mild symptoms. But some people, usually those with other medical complications, develop more severe symptoms, including pneumonia, which can be fatal.
The business affected Monday joins a list of other establishments and institutions that have closed or cut back under state order or voluntarily due to the pandemic.
Both local schools and colleges have shutdown their campuses and moved classes online.
Many employees who can are working from home to avoid crowded workplaces.
On Monday, Mayor Miro Weinberger order all restaurants and bars to cease on-site service starting Tuesday morning. House later, Scott issued a similar order for the entire state. Many eateries have shifted their focus to take-out and home deliveries.
Coronavirus:Vermont restaurants grapple with present, worry about future because of COVID-19 outbreak
Venues for concerts and other entertainment events have closed, cancelling or postponing scheduled performances.
By March 15, ski areas in the state had shut down, for some, weeks before the typical end of their season.
Retail businesses are seeing a sharp drop in customers as colleges stand empty of students and other people are heeding orders to limit personal contact and stay home as much as possible. Many shops have opted to close for the time being.
And the Burlington International Airport stands largely empty, as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advises people to consider canceling or delaying travel plans to limit exposure to and spread of COVID-19.
"I don't make these decisions lightly and my heart goes out to these workers and small business owners who are feeling the negative effects," Scott said.
COVID cases in Vermont reach record highs among young people as fatalities decrease Vermonters aged 50 and older can sign up for the COVID-19 vaccine starting March 29 3 major summer events in downtown Burlington are planned after year off due to COVID-19 Vermont opioid-related deaths see noticeable rise through pandemic

Drone Delivers Vaccines for Children in Vanuatu Island Nation
SYDNEY – Vanuatu, an island nation in the South Pacific, has become the first country to use commercial drones to distribute vaccines, the United Nations Children's Fund said on Wednesday.
Cate Heinrich, Chief of Communication for UNICEF Pacific, told EFE that the delivery took place on Tuesday and that one-month-old baby Joy Nowain was the first beneficiary to get vaccinated against tuberculosis and Hepatitis B in a remote village.
The drone, made by the Australian company Swoop Aero, carried a vaccine package to an area on Erromango Island, south of the archipelago where there are no suitable places to preserve this type of medicine.
A total of 13 children and five pregnant women were vaccinated with the help of the first drone delivery.
The drone flew more than 40 km (25 miles) over a mountainous area from west to east of the island and carried the vaccines in a polystyrene box with ice and an electronic indicator to measure temperature.
Vaccines are very vulnerable to temperature fluctuations, making their distribution difficult in countries such as Vanuatu, an archipelago with over 80 islands spread over 1,300 km, with poor communications.
"As a result, almost 20 percent of the country's children miss out on these essential vaccines," said UNICEF.
Although there have been drone deliveries of medical supplies in the past in other parts of the world, but it is the first time ever, that a government contracted a commercial drone company to transport vaccines to remote area and is set to become a stable service in the country.
Heinrich said this was the first time a government had hired a drone operator to specifically deliver vaccines and it opened the door to a sustainable model that could be applied elsewhere while giving the drone industry much more credibility.
The project is a joint collaboration between the Vanuatu government, UNICEF, Australia and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.

Hugh Jackman explained. "Let's just be clear that, but now, I realized, before we shot Logan, I was like, we got the idea. We knew what it was going to be-ish, right? And I thought this is it. And that really helped me, it really helped knowing I was going into my last season, that it was my last season that I made the most of it. And it's still a character I hold close to my heart.

I often liken human brains to desk top computers, without the rigid logic and strict protocols.
Data input > data processed > data output response.
It's the same principle but unlike computer systems, each brain seems to use its own unique operating system - and so individual responses to the same events might be the same (e.g. an emergency situation in a theatre would generate a common desire to evacuate or die) or it may be totally different in other situations (e.g. stick me into a crowd of people watching rugby league and I would be the only person whose brain was sending out signals to evacuate or die of boredom).
I continue the computer analogy when I think of religion. I see religion as a analogous to a computer virus.
The religion virus is so powerful, children are infected by their parents and the particular religion stays with them throughout their life.
Grown men and women, still retaining the imaginary belief that their benevolent god is the one true god and that she responds to their thought prayers and will grant them everlasting life.
In most developed countries, the religion virus is declining. The more educated a society is, the less religious it is likely to be.
Apparently, America is the most religious wealthy country in the world (as measured by per capita GDP) - and 55% of them pray to their god on a daily basis.
America, the most powerful country in the world - one of the richest too - with its advanced technology and its immense scientific knowledge, still believes in Santa Claus!
From the President and Congress down to its educated and uneducated population, the anti-virus software is not working over there.
The con-men and scammers are winning.

Sitting in another craft class this afternoon, I got out my tiny little notebook and figured out the last third of Secret to Love. Plot-wise, in any case.
The combination of steeping my consciousness in story vs plot (sequence vs sequence w/ causality), and having both Eve and an agent I chatted with ask me a couple of smart questions after hearing my spiel, simplified the whole explosion-change-end result maneuver I'd been churning around for some time.
Frances, my beleaguered heroine, has been operating under false guidance. Her grandmother set her on a quest with bad advice at the beginning of the book: find a husband who can stand up to you. Who can boss you. And at the end of the book, Frances finds herself in a similar wisdom-dispensing situation. Her advice, of course, will refute Grandmother's. It will be this little act, this realization that she has reached a position where she knows how to answer a fundamental query on the nature of meaning, of love, that causes the shift.


11 I ask, then, hhas God rejected his people? By no means! For iI myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham,1 a member of the tribe of Benjamin. 2 jGod has not rejected his people whom he kforeknew. Do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he appeals to God against Israel? 3 l"Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have demolished your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life." 4 But what is God's reply to him? m"I have kept for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal." 5 So too at the present time there is na remnant, chosen by grace. 6 oBut if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace.
17 But if zsome of the branches were broken off, and you, aalthough a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root3 of the olive tree, 18 do not be arrogant toward the branches. If you are, remember it is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you. 19 Then you will say, "Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in." 20 That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you bstand fast through faith. So cdo not become proud, but dfear. 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. 22 Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, eprovided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise fyou too will be cut off. 23 And geven they, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God has the power to graft them in again. 24 For if you were cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and grafted, contrary to nature, into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, the natural branches, be grafted back into their own olive tree.


With an individual being able to view the attractive landscape while going round the world, it is his wish to have his beautiful landscape. A motivational arises when an individual get to see a well-maintained garden in such a way he wish of having his beautiful garden around his compound. The mind of an individual think of a serene and a quiet environment. Preparing a nice landscape on the yard become difficult for an individual as he is busy in his workplace hence lack time. There is a need, therefore, to hire a landscaping service provider due to this reason.
So that you can hire the best landscaping service provider, there is a need to consider the experience. Having this in mind, you will be assured that the service to be offered will be of high quality. Hiring an individual with no experience will result in poor quality of work as an individual will perform the task to fulfil that he has done. So that better results are given through the services, there is a need to choose an individual with experience.
Knowing the kind of service to be offered by the provider need to be known by an individual, If an individual think of hiring a professional, there is a plan in his mind. Communication between the owner and the provider needs to be there so that everyone can give his views. Your region can look good with a certain plant, and the provider can give some recommendations as well as the design. Listening to him as giving time for him to say about the views should be allowed. It is important that an individual check the work done by this individuals to different company. The jobs should not only be completed, but they should have also been successful.
Friends, and family members who have had an experience should give recommendations. Doing to them having an experience, they will be able to give recommendations. With two or three companies, you can be able to make a comparison and weigh the best. Selecting the best company will result due to this.


A skill is the learned ability to carry out a task with pre-determined results often within a given amount of time, energy, or both. In other words, the abilities that one possesses. Skills can often be divided into domain-general and domain-specific skills. For example, in the domain of work, some general skills would include time management, teamwork and leadership, self-motivation and others, whereas domain-specific skills would be useful only for a certain job. Skill usually requires certain environmental stimuli and situations to assess the level of skill being shown and used.
People need a broad range of skills in order to contribute to a modern economy. A joint ASTD and U.S. Department of Labor study showed that through technology, the workplace is changing, and identified 16 basic skills that employees must have to be able to change with it.
Skill is a measure of the amount of worker's expertise, specialization, wages, and supervisory capacity. Skilled workers are generally more trained, higher paid, and have more responsibilities than unskilled workers.
Skilled workers have long had historical import (see Division of labor) as masons, carpenters, blacksmiths, bakers, brewers, coopers, printers and other occupations that are economically productive. Skilled workers were often politically active through their craft guilds.
One of the factors that increases the relative demand for skilled labor is attributed to the introduction of computers. In order to operate computers, workers must build up their human capital in order to learn how such a piece of machinery works. Thus, there is an increase in the demand for skilled labor. In addition to the technological change of computers, the introduction of electricity also replaces man power (unskilled labor) which, in turn, also shifts out the demand curve.

The Differences Between Moissanite and Diamond
Since the beginning of the 20th century diamonds have traditionally been the choice of gemstone for engagement rings. However, at the tail end of the 20th century we learned how to create moissanite in a lab and now Moissanite is quickly becoming a popular choice for new brides. It's a practical choice with all the lasting beauty of a diamond but without the astronomically inflated price. Also, unlike diamonds, which drop in value by nearly 70% as soon as you take them out of the jewelry store, Moissanite retains much more of its value.
"What Is Moissanite" you ask, "and how does it compare to diamonds"? Well, I'll tell you.
Moissanite is silicon carbide that was first discovered in nature as a mineral attached to a meteorite in Diablo Canyon, Arizona by French chemist Henri Moissan in 1893. When Dr. Moissan was studying the crater, he assumed that he had found diamonds but upon further study he realized that he had discovered an entirely new mineral. Twelve years later another prominent gem expert and mineralogist, suggested this new mineral be called Moissanite after the man who had made the brilliant discovery. Moissanite is incredibly rare in nature, so today nearly all of it is synthesized in laboratories.
It is a truly conflict-free alternative to diamonds. While not all diamonds are blood diamonds, many companies call their diamonds, "conflict free", but the reality is that rarely can you trace the origin of a diamond with 100% certainty. If you want to be 100% confident that the stone you're going to wear on your hand every day as a symbol and reminder of love, is eco-conscious and cruelty free then Moissanite is your best choice.
How durable is Moissanite compared to diamonds? An engagement ring or wedding set is something you'll wear on your hand every day for the rest of your life, so it's got to be durable. The Mohs Scale of Minerals measures scratch resistance. Moissanite scores a 9.5 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamonds, which score a 10. So basically, there isn't a daily task that would ever scratch your moissanite.
So now you're probably wondering how the color, clarity and cost of Moissanite compares to diamonds. With diamonds their cost is dictated by their size, color and clarity, the same can be said of moissanite.
Diamonds can be found in colors like blue, pink and yellow as well as white. Diamonds are classified—and consequently priced—by their color and their clarity. The most popularly purchased color classification of white diamonds are H or I, which are essentially nearly colorless diamonds. The most popular clarity for engagement rings is VS2, this clarity grade means that under 10x magnification, imperfections and inclusions are "Very Slightly Included".
Moissanite is a white (or really, clear/transparent) colorless stone, and like diamonds, the more color that the stone contains, the less valuable it is deemed. Unlike diamonds, moissanite can be manufactured to be totally colorless—something that is nearly impossibly rare in the diamond world at an affordable price. If you were to compare moissanite to a same sized and colored diamond, the cost of the diamond would be four to six times or greater on average. Meaning moissanite is far more affordable, and you can purchase a much larger stone for a lot less money
What about sparkle or brilliance? Diamonds and moissanite are both great at reflecting and refracting white light, meaning they are very shiny and sparkly but moissanite beats diamonds in this category. There is a measurement for this, it's called the "refraction index". On the Refraction Index (RI), moissanite scores a 2.65-2.69, whereas diamonds score a 2.42. This is the why if you ask someone to guess which is a moissanite and which a diamond, the vast majority will think the moissanite is the diamond because they incorrectly assume the sparkliest ring is a diamond ring!
So, to sum it up, Moissanite is nearly as hard as a diamond so they last forever, just like a diamond. They have the same color and clarity but unlike a diamond can be made colorless. They're 100% conflict free with no impact to the environment. They are more sparkly than diamonds and to top it off they cost a fraction of what a diamond cost.

Environmental sciences are great fun for those who like to connect everything with everything else, and then cast their doubts on all these relations. But it also involves very urgent and earnest matter. For a university course, I wrote a 13p essay on agricultural paradigms and practices, which addresses how agriculture has been approached by western scientists and policymakers, and how this conflicted with ecological and social situations especially in non-western regions. And, because this is my first thorough exercise in this subject, I have taken some issues a bit broader. As well as my recommendations.
The Green Revolution has imposed a high-input-high-output paradigm that reveals its flaws especially in fragile, instable ecological areas where it is ecologically and economically untenable. Much of the failure in Sub-Saharan Africa and other vulnerable regions can be ascribed to a mismatch both cultural (Western 'master-and-possessor' paradigm versus indigenous holistic cosmology) and ecological (ignorance of ecological complexity and extrapolation of potent farming conditions to marginal areas). Agroecology is a strategy with a range of techniques that may both revitalize or improve marginal agriculture and bring ecology back to intensified, high-input agriculture. It offers scope for agriculture in marginal areas, currently often erosive, to become 'well-functioning' while avoiding that this is accompanied by large increases in external inputs and homogenization. Intensive agriculture can be improved by using more integrated and holistic techniques. To this end, the concerted action of human and nature should form the basis of sufficient, and sustainable, productivity. I propose resilience as an important and potent tool in achieving this. Resilience opens up new opportunities in the foggy path towards a more sustainable world. With keeping 'resilience' and 'leeway' in mind, a valuable asset could be added to society's developmental basket.

Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) has always been the unappreciated sibling of the cloud computing service model trio. Existing in the dark shadow of the most widely adopted Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and foundationally powerful Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), the third service model is often misunderstood and widely ignored.
Organizations can innovate faster, enabling the faster transformation of new ideas into real applications.
Enable cost efficient global scalability by leveraging the insight of platform experts that have developed and deployed scaling mechanism capable of responding to the needs of many customer types and situations.
Dramatically reduce overall project risk by bringing predictability to both the cost and the ramifications of introducing new applications and services.
Figure 1- Through the "Enhanced Services" layer, the Teradata PaaS advantage delivers industry and business process aligned components.
Teradata differentiator can be delivered under a private, public or hybrid cloud deployment model.
Self-service – By coupling the inherent advantages of PaaS (standardization, cost reductions, application development agility and speed) and the Terradata platform's industry and business process aligned components, empower your development team with a self-service model and industry leading technical support.
An example of the advantage that Teradata PaaS can bring to your business is a rapidly growing US healthcare provider that needed to sustain their unpredictable growth in a rapidly expanding business. The company viewed the cloud as an opportunity to focus on its core competencies and maximize the delivery of critical healthcare services but wanted to also avoid reducing any of their healthcare focused resources. To successfully overcome this dilemma, the company adopted Teradata PaaS through the use of the managed cloud services model.
Through this strategy, the company was relieved of most of the care and feeding of its data warehouse. They were also able to deploy both production and development systems to the Teradata Cloud, with the option to add disaster recovery systems in the future. The elasticity of cloud architecture enables the company to lease additional nodes within a few days. All this was done under a service level agreement (SLA) for operational transactions (such as three seconds to process 95 percent of certain queries) which minimizing the impact of analytic processing on its operations.
Teradata has embraced the power of PaaS. Let them deliver that power to you through the Teradata Cloud.


Many people associate abuse with physical violence only. Abuse does not have to be just physical in character. It can be verbal or emotional as well and can be just as devastating as a physical assault. Abuse, in any form, is an action of control.
Physical abuse: use of strength to inflict pain or control.
Verbal abuse: words used to hurt or control.
Emotional abuse: actions to intimidate and control.

In the trial court, defendants successfully argued that plaintiffs' action was preempted by Section 310 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act ("FDC Act") (21. U.S.C. § 337(a)), which states that "proceedings for the enforcement, or to restrain violations, of the [FDC Act] shall be in the name of the United States," thus excluding private enforcement. According to the trial court, although the action was for a violation of state law, allowing plaintiffs to proceed would conflict with the congressional intent to preclude private enforcement of the FDC Act. The Court of Appeal affirmed the trial court's decision. On February 11, 2008, however, the Supreme Court of California reversed the Court of Appeal's decision and remanded the matter to that court for further proceedings.
Plaintiffs' action for deceptive marketing of salmon was predicated on a California Health & Safety Code §§ 110765, 110740. This state law is effectively the same as the FDC Act provision at 21 U.S.C. § 343(a) and (k), which prohibit the misbranding of any food. Moreover, the FDC Act, at 21 U.S.C. § 343-1(a)(3), expressly authorizes states to establish their own requirements for disclosing use of color additives provided these requirements are "identical," i.e., effectively the same, as the FDC Act requirement.
The California Supreme Court concluded that preventing plaintiffs to bring a private action for violating a state law when the FDC Act authorizes such a state law would constitute an intrusion into state sovereignty. It ruled that nothing in the text or history of 21 U.S.C. § 343-1 indicates that Congress intended to limit a state in providing legal remedies for the violation of state laws authorized by such section. Moreover, the Court concluded that the prohibition at 21 U.S.C. § 337(a) of private actions applies only to actions for a violation of the FDC Act. The Court acknowledged that allowing the present action under a state law identical to the FDC Act might result in actions that FDA would not have taken. Nevertheless, the Court noted that Congress clearly had considered such potential conflict and concluded that such a potential inconsistency was insufficient reason to preempt a private action for violation of state law.
