Trixy: Hey Kristy thanks for agreeing to help test out Video chat interviewing.
Trixy: Ok, I guess the first question is about your husband, Michael Jensen. So tell us did you know of his return?
Kristy: Yeah actually, it's been in the works for a while.
Trixy: So does this mean that you'll have more time to focus on your eWe career?
Trixy: That's cool... Anyways so you got a match at Wrestle Mania, how's that feel?
Trixy: *Inturpting agian* Now this match you're going up against 4 other oppoenents. Do you think you've got what it takes to win it?
Kristy: Well, yeah. Ofcourse, Am I the only one in this match not at some time wrestle for WWE?
Trixy: I'm not sure that Shaul Guerrero or Brooklyn Glamorous was in WWE.
Kristy: Shaul's related to a WWE Legend... and Brooklyn.... I don't know maybe she's some how conneted to Cryme Tyme and their 'Brooklyn, Brooklyn' song and The Glamazon.
Trixy: Which is Beth Pheonix.
Trixy: Now this match is for the TeleVixen championship. Do you think you have what it takes to defend it every single ladies' Night. I mean you're not going to get any kind of break with it... it's every night.
Kristy: Well, if I win it and if I need a break I'll just not show for my match... Championship advantage.
Trixy: Right... What if it's a no Count-out match?
Kristy: Then I'll get disqualified.
Trixy: What if it's a no disqualification and no count out match?
Kristy: You're bound determined that I'm going to have to defend the title, aren't you?
Trixy: Ummm... How about we continue with the interview?
Trixy: ...lets see... Oh, I know, what do you think about your opponents?
Trixy: *Interupting* The lowest title on Ladies Night.
Kristy: So, a titles a title. If you told my opponents that it's the lowest title you'll probally get the same results. After all a title shows that you're a somebody.
Trixy: Right, But you know one of the biggest things is that most people are going to say that you don't deserve this title shot. You're current record holds at 5:5 and ofcourse the majority of your losses would of been key matches to further your carreer. As in one loss was in King of Extreme while some of the others were championship or #1 contenders matches.
Kristy: *Kristy smiles.* You say that to them and they'll just say they wouldn't know of those losses. I mean when I first started none of my opponents were here in eWe, so unless they do their homework on me they won't know about any of that. As of right now their probally talk more about me being a mother or the fact that I'm a surposed nobody, which in a way are both true.
Trixy: So you're allready counting this match as a loss?
Kristy: I didn't say that... I'm just saying that's the most they'll say about it. Probally say that I don't deserve to be in the match since, in their eyes, haven't earned it. That or they'll say I'm in it because of my husband being the eWe chairman.
Kristy: You sure you're ok Trixy?
Trixy: I,... uh, you haven't seen Leo have you?
Trixy: Ok, because I haven't seen him since his last match and he hasn't scheduled an interview with me for the open invite match.
Kristy: Don't worry Trixy, I'm sure he's fine.
Trixy: I know... but he was so obsessed with winning that money in the bank qualifier, then for him to loose.... I just hope that he's not going to do something he regrets.
Kristy: I'll be right back.
Trixy: Kristy?! Kristy What happened?
Saw Puppet: Hello Kristy. I want to play a game.
Saw Puppet: Now you're probally wondering where you are right now. Well, right now you are in a cabin in the middle of the woods. But that doesn't matter right now. Right now you should be more concerned about the device strapped to your head.
Saw Puppet: Now after this ends you will have 1 minute to remove it or it will kill you.
Saw Puppet: Before you think that you're cybornetic abilities will save you. Remember this, I wrote the original designs for the XD project.
Saw Puppet: Now to remove the device, you need to turn the nobs on the device at the same time. In order to do that you need to find the key to your cuffs. Don't try using you're abilities for doing so will activate the device.
Saw Puppet: So the question is... where is the key? For that let me direct you behind you.
Saw Puppet: Now it's pretty simple... The key to your cuffs is inside Leo and there's only one way to get it out. Now that device he's in is an incinerator, with the push of that button it'll activate the incenirator and burn Leo in no time at all which ofcourse would allow the key to drop into that area for you to get and open your cuff.
Saw Puppet: Before you go thinking of allowing yourself to be killed to save Leo take another look at him.
Saw Puppet: You know of his hatred towards Dutch Clark but there's one more he dispises even more than Dutch. And that's you're husband. So if you think that after he gets his revenge on Dutch do you think he'll stop there? Wrong. He'll go after your husband next and don't think he'll stop at just trying to ruin his company. No Leo won't rest til he pays back Jensen for every thing he did to him.
Saw Puppet: If that's not enough think of your children. If you let Leo live you'll be taking away your children's mother and possibly their father. Do you really want that?
Saw Puppet: Yes, doen't it just burn you up inside, knowing that this man will be the cause of your children becoming parentless? Now go, and show him what that feels like. You have 2 minutes.
Saw Puppet: Congradulations, Mrs. Jensen. Looks like there's a bit of Michael Jensen in you after all.
Blitz: Returning the favor eh?
Hellen: So any idea on who tied us up here?
Trixy: kristy... Is there something the matter?
Kristy: ...No it's not that.
Trixy: *Soothingly* Then what is it?
Trixy: Ummm... I know the loss of you're friend is heart breaking but couldn't you do this after we've gotten out of here?
Kristy: I... I don't know the way out. I was brought here like you guys.
Blitz: Don't worry, we'll find a way out.
Blitz: Well lets get started.
Blitz: You sure it's wise we take the elevator?
Hellen: Do you see another way down?
Hellen: Then there you go.
Voice: Hello Hellen, I want to play a game.
Kristy: That's the guy who trapped us here.
Blitz: We are not getting back on that thing.
Blitz: We've got to find another way down.
Jesen: *Nods* let's get moving.
Blitz: Well? what do you think?
Blitz: Looks like a stair case.
*Blitz and Jensen caustiosly went into the stair case."
*Suddenly the door shut behind them Kristy and Trixy went to try and open the door only to get an shock as they quickly releashed it. Then suddenly two walls rose from the floor and spikes came out of them. Blitz and Jensen tried to open the door but were unable to due to the shock.
Voice: hello Trixy... I want to play a game.
Saw Puppet: This game is very simple... Trixy you are to kill Kristy. You can do this by throwing Kristy agianst one of the spiked walls. Act quickly, for the walls won't stay put forever... but before you begin let me tell you of the one who killed Leo. It was Kristy.
Trixy: You ... Killed him?!?
*But that didn't matter to Trixy as she then lauched herself at Kristy knocking her to them both to the ground. Trixy then unloaded punch after punch to Kristy's head. Kristy then managed to push her off of her. Both girls got to their feet. Trixy waisted no time charging at Kristy. This time Kristy was read as she leaned back and used her legs to propelle Trixy over her. Not long a sickening sound was heard. Kristy got up and saw that Trixy had been flung into the wall, the spikes penitrating her flesh. Kristy turned away. She couldn't bare to look. Then the door to the stairs opened as Blitz and Jensen rushed into the area.
Saw Puppet: Congradulations Kristy... You are still alive.
Blitz: Most likely another trap.
Jensen: Seems that door is the only option we have.
Blitz: Right, but we need to be very carefull.
*They walked back to the door. This time Jensen walked up to and placed his hands on the handle. He then opened it but slowly. Suddenly, the door was pushed forcefully the rest of the way open as Jensen was knocked down. There was a figure in the door way. He was large and bulky. The figure then threw what looked to be a kind of spear pinning Jensen's leg to the floor. Jensen yelped with pain. The figure advanced but with a rather large knife in his hands.
Blitz: You heard the man.
Blitz: come on Kristy... Hurry!
Kristy: *Through grunts of pulling on the door.* Why... won't... my... powers... work!
Saw Puppet: Hello YOu two. Welcome to the final game.
Saw Puppet: This game is simple. Now, Kristy do you see that metal cabnent behind you? Inside the top drawer is something I want you to get.
Saw Puppet: The final game is simple. Kristy you are to use that hand gun to kill Blitz. If you do you go free. If not... you don't.
Blitz: Do it Kristy. One of us needs to get out of here... and you have something to loose. You still have Julian and Britney.... Me, I've got nothing waiting out there for me.
Blitz: Go on... do it.
Saw Puppet: Well, Done Kristy. We'll make a Jensnen out of you yet.
Saw Puppet: Oh and one more thing Kristy.
Saw Puppet: Good luck on your Wrestle Mania Match.
OOC: I'm going to do an General RP later to expain a few things.

So You Want To Be A Rockstar Photographer
Social media has created a myth of the a professional photographer's life as "Rockstar" glamorous. Web personalities who claim that the ticket to success is to "branding"—heavy on style, light on skill—who seem to spend more time in front of the camera than behind it. This myth is hurting a profession that already faces daunting challenges. It's harder than ever to forge success as a professional event photographer. That's why it's critical to learn the real skills and secrets that will help you succeed. Not the motivational, "Buy a BMW and believe in yourself" stuff, but practical principles that generate business in the real world.
"So You Want to Be a Rockstar Photographer" is for professionals, budding pros, and anyone interested in learning more about how to thrive in the real world of event photography. What you may discover is that when you stop trying to be a rockstar, and start focusing on the process of being a thoughtful, client-centered pro, you might become an outstanding success.
The Accidental Millionaire: How to Succeed in Life Without Really Trying
An entrepreneur's rags-to-riches story reveals that sometimes not knowing where you're going is the best way to get there . . .
A first-generation Chinese-American, Gary Fong was raised in one of Los Angeles' least-desirable neighborhoods and was forced to deal—in his own quirky and often very funny way—with the burdens of poverty, crime, and his parents' relentless aspirations. Spotting a bumper sticker one day that read "Since I gave up hope, I feel much better," Gary promptly did just that.
As a would-be slacker (who really, really didn't want to become a doctor), he somehow wound up revolutionizing wedding photography and inventing popular new equipment for photographers. At turns hilarious, insightful, and instructive, The Accidental Millionaire is a memoir that turns the traditional self-help principles upside down, rejecting the goal-oriented approaches and showing us how Gary Fong stopped trying—and started succeeding.
SNAPS by Gary Fong
Gary Fong is a world-renowned photographer, inventor and entrepreneur who has made multiple fortunes and lived a life far more colorful than any of his photos. From his inauspicious beginnings in a tiny, hairspraysaturated apartment that doubled as his parents wig studio, he went on to become, at a very young age, one of the world's most successful wedding photographers.
After making millions in an industry traditionally reserved for small businessmen, he practically stumbled upon serial successes in the photo printing, software, real estate and camera accessory industries by making snap decisions based on his own quirky impulses. Gary is not a traditional businessman and his story is not a traditional rag-to-riches tale. Known to make important life choices on the flip of a coin, he has followed the whims of fate and instinct to create a life of amazing prosperity and adventure.
Sometimes hilarious, sometimes touching, Snaps is a series of short verbal snapshots, each of which can be read alone. When taken together, though, they form a rich mosaic of a life fully lived and an adventure that is still unfolding.

The Doores family was one of the earliest in Bronaugh. In fact they were in the vicinity before there was even a town. Prior to the founding of Bronaugh, the Doores family lived in northwest Vernon County, appearing in the 1880 Richland Township census (provided by Nancy Thompson).
(Note, in the census, Doores is spelled Doors and the name Hemena refers to Xemenia).
R. A. Doores was responsible for much of the early construction in the new town of Bronaugh in 1886 and 1887. His work included such buildings as the Methodist Church.
Thanks to Lindell Haverstic for sharing photos from the Doores family that came from an auction many years ago. The scans that follow are among those that are identified.

David Friedländer (sometimes spelled Friedlander; 16 December 1750, Königsberg – 25 December 1834, Berlin) was a German banker, writer and communal leader.

Life

Friedländer settled in Berlin in 1771. As the son-in-law of the rich banker Daniel Itzig, and a friend, pupil, and subsequently intellectual successor of Moses Mendelssohn, he occupied a prominent position in both Jewish and non-Jewish circles of Berlin. His endeavors on behalf of the Jews and Judaism included the emancipation of the Jews of Berlin and the various reforms connected therewith.

Frederick William II, on his accession, called a committee whose duty was to acquaint him with the grievances of the Jews, Friedländer and Itzig being chosen as general delegates. But the results of the conference were such that the Jews declared themselves unable to accept the reforms proposed, and not until after the French Revolution, with the edict of March 11, 1812, did the Jews then living on Prussian territory succeed in obtaining equal rights from Frederick William III.

Friedländer and his friends in the community of Berlin now turned their attention to the reform of worship in harmony with modern ideas and the changed social position of the Jews. The proposition in itself was unjustified, and the propositions of Friedländer, who had meanwhile been called (1813) to the conferences on the reorganization of the Jewish cult held in the Israelite Consistory of Westphalia () at Cassel, were unacceptable to even the most radical members, as they tended to reduce Judaism to a mere colorless code of ethics.

Friedländer was more successful in his educational endeavors. He was one of the founders of a Jewish free school (1778), which he directed in association with his brother-in-law, Isaac Daniel Itzig. In this school, however, exclusively Jewish subjects were soon crowded out. Friedländer also wrote text-books, and was one of the first to translate the Hebrew prayer-book into German.

The "dry baptism" initiative

Friedländer was concerned with endeavors to facilitate for himself and other Jews entry into Christian circles. This disposition was evidenced in 1799 by his radical proposal to a leading Protestant provost in Berlin (Oberconsistorialrat) Wilhelm Teller.

Friedländer's open letter (Sendschreiben) "in the name of some Jewish heads of families," stated that Jews would be ready to undergo "dry baptism": join the Lutheran Church on the basis of shared moral values if they were not required to believe in the divinity of Jesus and might evade certain Christian ceremonies. Much of the Open Letter was a polemic arguing that the Mosaic rituals were largely obsolete. So Judaism would thereby in return abandon many of its ceremonial features. The proposal "envisioned the establishment of a confederated unitarian church-synagogue."

This "Sendschreiben an Seine Hochwürden Herrn Oberconsistorialrath und Probst Teller zu Berlin, von einigen Hausvätern Jüdischer Religion" (Berlin, 1799), elicited over a score of responses in pamphlets and the popular press, including ones from Abraham Teller and Friedrich Schleiermacher. Both rejected the notion of a sham conversion to Christianity as harmful to Christianity and the State, though, in line with Enlightenment values, neither precluded the idea of more civil rights for unconverted Jews. Jewish reaction to Friedländer's initiative was overwhelmingly hostile  – it was called "a dishonorable act" and "desertion". Heinrich Graetz called him an "ape".

In 1816, when the Prussian government decided to improve the situation of the Polish Jews, Franciszek Skarbek von Malczewski,
Bishop of Kujawy, consulted Friedländer. Friedländer gave the bishop a circumstantial account of the material and intellectual condition of the Jews, and indicated the means by which it might be ameliorated.

Literary career
Friedländer displayed great activity in literary work. Induced by Moses Mendelssohn, he began the translation into German of some parts of the Bible according to Mendelssohn's commentary. He translated Mendelssohn's "Sefer ha-Nefesh," Berlin, 1787, and "Ḳohelet," 1788. He wrote a Hebrew commentary to Abot and also translated it, Vienna, 1791; "Reden der Erbauung gebildeten Israeliten gewidmet," Berlin, 1815-17; "Moses Mendelssohn, von ihm und über ihn," ib. 1819; "Ueber die Verbesserung der Israeliten im Königreich Polen," ib. 1819, this being the answer which he wrote to the Bishop of Kujawia; "Beiträge zur Geschichte der Judenverfolgung im XIX. Jahrhundert durch Schriftsteller," ib. 1820.

Friedländer was assessor of the Royal College of Manufacture and Commerce of Berlin, and the first Jew to sit in the municipal council of that city. His wealth enabled him to be a patron of science and art, among those he encouraged being the brothers Alexander and Wilhelm von Humboldt.

Southern racists adopt "Canadian" as a euphemism for "black"
Cory Doctorow 12:14 am Sun Jan 27, 2008
The Canadian National Post looks on with mild horror as American linguists report on the growing trend in the American south to use "Canadian" as a masking euphemism for black people, so that white racists can say socially inappropriate things without tipping listeners off about the cancer in their souls.
Last August, a blogger in Cincinnati going by the name CincyBlurg reported that a black friend from the southeastern U.S. had recently discovered that she was being called a Canadian. "She told me a story of when she was working in a shop in the South and she overheard some of her customers complaining that they were always waited on by a Canadian at that place. She didn't understand what they were talking about and assumed they must be talking about someone else," the blogger wrote.
"After this happened several times with different patrons, she mentioned it to one of her co-workers. He told her that 'Canadian' was the new derogatory term that racist Southerners were using to describe persons they would have previously referred to [with the N-word.]"
A similar case in Kansas City was reported last year on a Listserv, or electronic mailing list, used by linguistics experts. A University of Kansas linguist said that a waitress friend reported that "fellow workers used to use a name for inner-city families that were known to not leave a tip: Canadians. 'Hey, we have a table of Canadians…. They're all yours.' "

Do You Need a Domestic Violence Attorney?
Regardless of whether the accusation is true or not, a domestic violence charge can completely turn a person's life upside down. Because of the nature of the crime, those charged with domestic abuse may not only face certain social consequences that jeopardize relationships, with family, friends, and co-workers, but also their employment. They may feel isolated from those around them without access to support. However, in addition to the social stigma associated with domestic abuse charges, the penalties that come with a conviction can be severe. They may include losing custody of, or contact with, your children. Penalties can also include hefty fines, confinement in a jail or prison, losing access to firearms, and other serious consequences. Again, an accused individual may feel isolated or betrayed, which is why it's important to seek a domestic violence attorney to fight on your behalf.

We understand exactly what is at stake in these cases, and we work hard to help our clients receive the best legal outcome. Learn more about domestic violence cases and discover how our lawyers can help you.
What Constitutes Domestic Violence?
When most people think of domestic violence, physical abuse against a family member may be the first thing to come to mind. However, domestic abuse is also recognized in other forms. For example, emotional and verbal abuse are considered to be forms of domestic violence. Even when no physical interaction occurs, threats and intimidation can also be considered forms of domestic violence. If an individual loses their temper for an instant and makes a threat toward a wife, husband, or partner, that individual could face charges relating to domestic violence. No physical contact is needed. These are just some of the ways that domestic abuse cases are more complex and wide-reaching than most people may realize.
Additionally, when many think of domestic violence cases, they usually imagine an altercation between a husband and wife. While this can be the case, it is not always so. These cases involve violence directed against family members, but the legal meaning of "family member" can be broad. It can include a spouse or an ex-spouse, a child or stepchild, a parent or stepparent, and a foster parent or foster child. Also, in 2017 the Louisiana Legislature passed a bill that removed the words "opposite sex" from domestic violence statutes. This gave potential victims of domestic violence in same-sex relationships the same protections as potential victims in opposite-sex relationships.

Men's Tennis Picked to Finish Fourth in HCAC by League's Coaches
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – The Franklin College men's tennis team has been chosen to earn a share of fourth place in the 2019 Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference (HCAC) standings, according to the league's pre-season rankings as voted on by the league's nine coaches.
Franklin collected 53 points to finish tied with Transylvania in the pre-season poll with both teams sitting behind Rose-Hulman, Earlham and Hanover in the rankings. The Grizzlies come into their championship season with a 2-4 record accumulated during a brief fall schedule.
Additionally, three Grizzlies were chosen as "Players to Watch" by the league in junior Blake Amonett, sophomore Jacob Zachary and senior Dean Elrod. Indianapolis, Ind.-native Amonett established himself as the team's top player in the fall, going 4-2 as the team's top singles player while also playing five matches at the top doubles spot. Amonett was a Second Team All-HCAC selection last spring after going 10-6 in singles play and 11-7 in doubles competition, leading Franklin in wins in both areas of competition.
Franklin-native Zachary slid in behind Amonett in the lineup, competing at either the No. 2 or No. 3 spot in singles play and one of the top two doubles teams in the fall. Another 2018 HCAC second team selection, Zachary went 8-10 as a singles player last year, accumulating a 5-3 record as the team's No. 3 singles player.
The team's lone senior, Elrod steps into competition this spring following a 6-7 2017-18 campaign. The Milan, Ind.-native slotted in as the team's No. 6 player last year, going 6-4 from that spot in the lineup while going 2-1 in doubles competition.
Franklin opens the spring season on Saturday, Feb. 16, traveling to Mount Vernon, Ind. for meetings with Cornell College and Millikin University.


In 2017 we developed an arts plan for 8 Phillip Street in line with Parramatta's interim Public Art Guidelines for Developers.
Parramatta is heading in a bold and transformative new direction. Its emergence as Sydney's second CBD sees its services and infrastructure upgraded to what can only be described as 'enviable' by first world standards. The inclusion of a nearby future airport, the new Parramatta Stadium and a soon to be built light rail system creates a sense of progress and momentum that is mirrored by the development of 8 Phillip Street.


That human nature has lost that moral purity and perfection with which it was originally endued, is a truth which lies at the heart of the Christian religion. Indeed, we see not how it can be denied by the deist, without casting a gross reflection on the character of God. It is only from the Scriptures, however, that we learn the origin of evil. Here we read, that God made man upright, but he hath sought out many inventions. Man being in honor continued not. When God created man he formed him in his own image and after his own likeness; and what that image consisted in, the apostle Paul informs us, when he speaks of the new creation. 'And that ye be renewed in the spirit of your mind. And that ye put on the new man which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.' The phrase 'after God,' means after the image of God. This is expressed in the parallel passage, 'Seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds, and have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him.' By the fall this moral image was effaced. The mind which had been illumined by divine truth became spiritually blind; the heart whose exercises had been holy and harmonious, became corrupt, the hot-bed of every vicious propensity, and the center of darkness and disorder. Instead of moral beauty, there was now deformity. In the place of pure felicity, misery succeeded. The soul was now turned with aversion from God and holiness, and the affections attached themselves to the creature. Reason and conscience no longer had control over the inferior passions and appetites; but these, seizing the reins of government, urged man on to carnal indulgences inconsistent with purity and peace. Being now alienated from God, man became his own center around which he endeavored to make all things revolve, from which the most direful disorder ensued; yet he persists in acting upon this principle of supreme selfishness. Although this depravity was from its commencement total, inasmuch as all holy exercise and all holy motives were banished from the mind; yet is human iniquity capable of indefinite increase. Its natural progress is from bad to worse, without a conceivable limit. All therefore are not equal in sin and guilt. The same person is comparatively innocent when he commences his course, to what he becomes at the end of a long life of transgression. And the enormity of his guilt, as well as the obstinate perverseness of his evil nature, depends on the clearness of the light resisted, and the multitude of the mercies abused. Wickedness may attain its greatest visible height among the heathen, but in the sight of God, self-righteous Pharisees are more guilty than Publicans; and Bethsaida, Chorazin and Capernaum will have a more intolerable doom than Tyre and Sidon, or even than Sodom itself. The deepest guilt is contracted under the clear sunshine of the gospel, and by those whose privileges, opportunities, calls and professions, lay them under the strongest obligations to love and serve their Creator.
The proof of the wickedness of man is found in every part of the Bible; and it is a truth confirmed by all history and experience. That a reformation would be desirable, and that all men need to be made better than they are, will not be denied. But there is a deep-rooted opinion in the minds of men, that this reformation and return to the service of God, will be easy whenever they shall determine upon it. The need for supernatural power to regenerate the soul is not commonly felt; and when men begin to be convinced of their impotence as it relates to holy acts, they are prone to make their depravity, which is the only cause of their inability, their excuse.
The necessity of regeneration arises from the fact, that man by the fall has become dead in sin. Spiritual life is extinct, and, therefore, if any are saved, they must be regenerated. Life cannot spring from death. Life is a gift of God in all cases. He breathed into man, when his body was formed out of the clay, the breath of life. It would be as reasonable to believe that the organized body could inspire itself with life, as that the dead soul can perform acts of spiritual life. All men having fallen into the same spiritual death, all need regeneration. Some men are amiable in their natural temper, and regular in their external behavior; but these also are naturally blind and depraved. They have no right apprehensions of God, no holy affections towards him, no cheerful and habitual purpose to serve him. They need therefore to be converted, however highly they may be esteemed among men. Though such, like the young ruler who came to Christ, may have many amiable qualities which entitle them to the love of their friends, yet, like him, they may lack one thing. Their hearts may be fixed, like his, on worldly objects. Let all such, therefore, be assured that, as well as others, they must be born again. Man looketh on the outward appearance, but God searcheth the heart; and often that which is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God. Under a fair exterior there often lies concealed a heart full of unbelief, pride, and ingratitude. By the restraints of education, an enlightened conscience, and a regard to reputation, sin may be kept from breaking out into enormous and shameful actions; but the seeds of all iniquity are concealed in every heart. Men are satisfied commonly if they can so regulate their lives as to escape the censure of men, and the disgrace which follows wicked actions, but they pay little attention to their hearts which are as a cage of unclean birds. Most men are not in the habit of judging of their thoughts, imaginations and feelings, by the holy law of God, which condemns every wandering of desire, every unhallowed temper, and every want of supreme and perfect love. If we look upon our own hearts we must be convinced that all is not right within. If our hearts are naturally good, why do they turn away with strong secret aversion from the spiritual service of God? If our hearts are not dead to God, why are we not daily delighted with the contemplation of his glorious attributes? Why is prayer a burden? Why are we so entirely engrossed with sensible and worldly pursuits and pleasures? And if the moral and amiable need regeneration, what shall we say of the multitudes who are living in open rebellion against God? The profane, the unjust, the intemperate, the licentious, the scoffer, the false-swearer, the defrauder of the widow and the orphan, the sabbath-breaker, the liar, the neglecters of God's worship, the slanderer, and a multitude of others who live habitually in known sin, surely need to be reformed, and they will never be thoroughly reformed until they are regenerated. Such must put off the old man with his corrupt deeds, and put on the new man. 'Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts, and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him, and to our God who will abundantly pardon.' There is an urgent necessity that every sinner should repent, for true repentance is unto life. And what our Lord declared to the Jews is true of all, and was intended for all. 'Except ye repent ye shall all likewise perish,' and Paul preached to the Athenians that 'God now commandeth all men every where to repent, because he hath appointed a day in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained, of which he hath given assurance unto all men in that he hath raised him from the dead.' Evangelical repentance, conversion and regeneration, are substantially the same. They all signify a thorough change of views, affections, purposes and conduct; and this change is every where declared to be essential to salvation. And this is not a merely arbitrary constitution. No one is capable of the enjoyment of heavenly felicity who has never been born again. Without spiritual life, what would the sinner do in heaven? If men have no love to God, nor relish for his service, heaven is no place for them. Heaven is a holy place, and all the exercises and employments are holy, therefore, 'Without holiness no man shall see the Lord.' And to be holy, ye must be born again.
Having considered the necessity of regeneration, we come now to speak of the power by which it is effected — of the instrument in accomplishing it — and of its nature and effects.
Regeneration must be the peculiar work of God, because it is 'a new creation,' and no power but that of God is adequate to such a work. It is a resurrection from the worst kind of death, and none can inspire the dead with life but the Almighty. It is giving sight to the blind, and opening the eyes which never saw the light of day, to behold the beauty of holiness, and the glory of God; but the same power which in the beginning caused light to shine out of darkness, must shine into our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 'Except a man be born of water and the spirit he cannot see the kingdom of God.' 'The wind bloweth where it listeth, etc., so is every one that is born of the spirit.' 'That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the spirit is spirit.' Those who are the sons of God are not 'born of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.' Paul calls this change 'the washing of regeneration,' and 'the renewing of the Holy Ghost.' And David prays, 'Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.' But why multiply proofs of a truth so evident from reason as well as Scripture? If there be any such internal change of the heart, God must be its author; for how else could it be produced? 'Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? Not one.' If a tree be evil, who can make it good, but he who created it? If the heart be deceitful above all things and desperately wicked, will it purify itself? If all the thoughts and imaginations of man's heart are evil and only evil and that continually, whence will spring a holy nature? For a sinner to regenerate himself would be as absurd an idea, as for a man to create or beget himself. It is God that begins this good work within his people, and he will carry it on.
As God the Holy Spirit is the Author of regeneration; so the instrument employed is the Word of God. This is as clearly taught in Scripture as that God is the author or efficient cause. God is able to work without means, but both in the worlds of nature and grace it has pleased him to employ appropriate means for the accomplishment of his own ends. But although we know the fact that there is an established connection between means and ends; yet we are not competent to explain, in any case, how the end is produced by the means employed. Our animal frame is formed, and organized, and nourished, and kept alive, and recovered from disease by means adapted to these ends, but no one can explain the secret process of nature in these operations. Curious inquiries respecting the way in which the word is instrumental in the production of this change are not for edification. Sometimes regeneration is considered distinctly from the acts and exercises of the mind which proceed from it, but in the Holy Scriptures the cause and effect are included; and we shall therefore treat the subject in this practical and popular form. The instrumentality of the word can never derogate from the efficient agency of the Spirit in this work. The Spirit operates by and through the word. The word derives all its power and penetrating energy from the Spirit. Without the omnipotence of God the word would be as inefficient as clay and spittle, to restore sight to the blind. Ezekiel was commanded to prophesy over the dry bones in the valley of vision. Thus ministers are now sent to call upon those who are dead in trespasses and sins, to awake and arise from the dead, but none will obey their voice, unless a divine power accompanies their words. Men, it is true, are rational and accountable agents, and are therefore proper subjects of commands and exhortations; yet are they destitute of spiritual life, and no power but that of God as we have seen can communicate life. When the Spirit operates by the word, the soul before dead in sin is rendered susceptible of impressions from divine truth. The entrance of the truth under this divine influence gives light, and excites holy affections, which prompt to good purposes, and as a matter of course, the external actions are in obedience to the law of God. The man becomes a new creature. His wicked life is reformed. Actions before materially good are now performed from love to God and with a view to his glory. That the word of God is indeed the instrument or means of producing this change is evident from many plain testimonies of Scripture; such as the following, 'The Law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul.' 'The testimonies of the Lord are sure making wise the simple.' 'So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.' 'Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth.' 'Being born again not of corruptible seed but of incorruptible, by the word of God which liveth and abideth forever.' Therefore the word of God is called 'the sword of the Spirit,' and is said to be 'quick and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder the soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner to the thoughts and intents of the heart.' So in the exposition of the parable of the sower, our Lord says, 'The seed is the word of God.' And this seed, when sown on good ground bringeth forth fruit manifold. 'For these are they which hear the word and receive it and bring forth fruit.' The most precious seed never vegetates nor brings forth fruit, until it receives a vivifying influence from without; so the word of God, unaccompanied by the influences of the Holy Spirit, remains unfruitful, however often it may be heard or read; or however it may be treasured in the memory or theoretically understood. To have fruit it is not only necessary to have good seed, but good ground. Make the tree good and the fruit shall be good; for a corrupt tree cannot bring forth good fruit. There is need of a quickening influence on the dead soul of the sinner to render it capable of apprehending and appreciating the truth. In the order of causation life must precede action, but in the order of time the communication of life and the acts of the new creature are simultaneous. Lazarus was called from the dead by the voice of Christ, but he must have been inspired with life before he could hear that voice. But still it is proper to say, that he was called into life by the omnipotent voice of our Savior. So when the gospel is preached, the dead hear the voice of the Son of God and live. Or we may illustrate the instrumentality of the word by the case of the blind man whose eyes our Lord opened. This man, when he first looked up, saw objects indistinctly, 'men as trees walking;' but when he looked a second time, he saw things clearly. Christ caused this man to see by the light of heaven which shone around him; but the power causing him to see was exerted on the eye, removing the obstacles to vision, or supplying what was defective in the organ. As soon as this was done, the light was the medium of the perception of surrounding objects. Thus the soul of every man is by nature blind. The light may shine around him, but he comprehendeth it not. 'The natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God, they are foolishness unto him, neither can he know them because they are spiritually discerned.' By the energy of the Holy Spirit this incapacity of spiritual vision is taken away; the eyes of the understanding are enlightened. The blindness is removed, and spiritual objects are perceived; but alas! with most, very indistinctly at first. 'The light of the just increaseth more and more unto the perfect day.' Truth is just as necessary to every spiritual act and exercise, as light is to vision. Where the truth is not apprehended there can be no faith, for faith is a belief of the truth; there can be no love, for it is by the truth that the excellencies of the character of God and Christ are made known. Without the knowledge of the truth, there can be no repentance, for this is the light which shows the holiness and extent of the law and the evil of sin. Thus it is evident that without the truth there can be no holy exercise and no true obedience. Therefore, we never find the Holy Spirit operating on adults but as accompanying the word of truth. We can conceive of a preparation of the heart to receive the truth before it is known, as in fact the knowledge of the truth is acquired very gradually. Thus we can conceive of a divine agency on the heart of a heathen, by which he would be disposed to receive the truth as soon as it should be made known. Such a divine influence does probably prepare the way for the success of the gospel; but where the word is never sent, there we have no evidence that the Spirit exerts his renovating influence on the minds of men. Thus also we can form some idea how infants are regenerated. As they are capable of no moral exercises at present, they do not need the truth; but the Spirit of God can so renovate their depraved souls as to render them capable of apprehending and feeling the truth, as soon as their faculties are sufficiently developed; whether in this world or in another. And as we are all by nature the children of wrath — conceived in sin — and dead, infants need regeneration as really as adults, and cannot enjoy the holy happiness of heaven without such a renovation of their fallen nature.
That usually a conviction of sin takes place previously to a change of heart, is a fact of common experience: and there seems to be a solid reason for this, that the sinful moral agent may be sensible of his miserable condition before he is delivered from it. As man naturally seeks to justify himself by his own righteousness, it is necessary that he should be cut off from this dependence on a broken law, which is now 'weak through the flesh,' and cannot bring him to life; and that he should see and feel that he is already justly condemned, and must despair of relief from the law. God permits the awakened sinner to try what he can do towards saving himself, until wearied with his own ineffectual efforts, he is brought to feel that he is indeed a lost sinner, and that there is no hope for him but in the sovereign mercy of God, on which he has no claim. It is suitable that when so great a benefit as pardon and eternal life is bestowed, it should be so conferred, as that the unworthy recipient should be fully convinced that it is a free gift, and an undeserved favor which might be most justly withheld. Otherwise the saved sinner would not feel a deep sense of his obligations; and his gratitude for free grace through eternity would not be so ardent. Some, however, are inclined to the opinion that conviction of sin, which is of any real value, is subsequent to regeneration, and forms a part of that evangelical repentance which all the chosen of God experience. They suppose, that mere legal terrors, which are often felt by the reprobate here, and by all the wicked in hell, can have no necessary connection with regeneration; and that that deep sense of the turpitude and demerit of sin, which commonly precedes a sense of reconciliation, and is by many thought to precede regeneration, is really a consequence of that spiritual change, and a sure evidence that it has taken place. As the question only relates to the order of the exercises of the true penitent, it seems unnecessary to occupy time in discussing it. On both sides it is agreed that mere legal convictions, however the conscious may be awakened, and the soul agitated with terror, are no evidences of a change of heart. And it is also agreed, that all regenerate persons are brought to a deep sense of the intrinsic evil of sin, and this leads them inevitably to the conclusion, that God would be just if he should inflict upon them the condign punishment which he has threatened in his word. Indeed, when the mind is spiritually enlightened to see something of the great evil of sin, the penitent soul cannot help taking the part of God against itself, and approving of its own condemnation.

ANU is on the lookout at the moment for signs of life amongst the hedgerows. Some back garden and roadside herbs have stood valiantly throughout the winter, even if this forager didn't. One particularly hardy plant is Chickweed, or Chicken Wort. Loathed by gardeners, but loved by herbalists, this floppy sprawling plant, described by the herbalist Levy as 'one of the supreme healers of the herbal kingdom', has a host of magical properties. Indeed, it might sooth the mood of many a gardener if they knew the power behind the so-called weed, that is so easily pulled up and dumped on the compost heap.
It's high in vitamins A and C, has a reputation for clearing stubborn skin conditions, such as eczema and varicose veins, has a special affinity for the eyes, lungs and chest – and it's free and widely available! Externally, it can be used to soothe itches, bites, stings, burns, sore eyes, even sunburn, bruises and splinters – it's as simple as pulling up a handful and placing it on the affected area, or crush it into a paste in a pestle and mortar. Taken internally, chickweed works well on dry coughs, asthma, bronchitis and other respiratory conditions, blocked kidneys and gallbladder and piles. It is even valued in some quarters as a slimming aid. Whatever you believe, it won't do you any harm, and you can have year round pesto from it if nothing else!
Chickweed Pesto
Blend together a large handful of chickweed, removing any larger stems, along with a good handful of pine nuts (walnuts also work well), a clove or two of garlic and enough olive oil to make it into a good pesto constituency. Serve it on pasta, baked potatoes or add some vinegar to make a salad dressing.

Carrageen Irish Moss Seaweed (Chondrus Crispus)
From hangovers to bunions, eczema and psoriasis to coughs, colds, rashes and burns, this life enhancing seaweed has been an Irish traditional medicine for hundreds of years for a reason: it works! Caitriona's sister harvests her own on her homeland Aran Island shores, where it is enjoyed as a food and drink, and applied topically to soothe skin conditions. The people swear by it even for ulcers and bladder complaints. Since this iodine rich seaweed moisturizes, nourishes and protects the skin, it's a must have in all our handmade products.

ANU The Goddess
Described as the Mother of the Gods of Ireland, Anu was the Earth Mother Goddess of ancient times, If you ever find yourself in County Kerry, in the south of Ireland, you will have a chance to visit the Paps of Anu, two breast shaped hills, believed to have been used in the rituals of prehistory. On each hilltop sits a cairn, thought to have once been passage graves. A line of stones connects the two cairns and archeologists believe that this was once a processional route. To the ancients, the hills were a visual reminder that the Earth was a motherly body.
The worship of Anu, also known as Danu, was brought to Ireland by the Tuatha De Danaan (the tribe of the people of Danu), who arrived, it is said, in a mist and that they came through the air to Ireland. They brought with them all their treasures and magical skills, and won the land from the Fir Bolg in a bloody battle. Anu, who is attributed to both the land and the sea, offered fertility, abundance, regeneration and nurturing – which makes her the perfect patron for us!

Curious: some things grow sweeter with age, and some simply grow bitter . . .
It is curious, all in the eye of the beholder. I don't quite understand why some people want to perceive things and events as worse than they really are — there's almost always a good side to look for.
More nurture than nature, I think . . .
Imagine how sad and dark a heart must be to spew poison from it's ventricles. Empathy for happiness unknown.


DETROIT -- Volvo has tacked on between $150 and $1,220 to the sticker prices of its vehicles for the 2006 model year.
Gone from the lineup for 2006 is the C70 convertible. It will be replaced sometime in the future with a new C70, Volvo says.
The Swedish automaker also has dropped the twin turbocharger, 2.9-liter inline six-cylinder engine from its U.S. lineup. The engine was available in the S80 sedan and the XC90 SUV. Volvo also dropped the normally aspirated 2.4-liter inline five-cylinder engine from the S60 line and the T5 trim level from the V70 wagon lineup.
The entry-level S40 sedan carries a base price of $24,450 including shipping charges for 2006. That is up $195 from the current base price of the 2005 model.
The biggest increase came on the S80 line, where prices rose $1,220 for 2006 on front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions of the sedan.
Volvo has sold 53,675 vehicles in the United States through May, down 4.1 percent from the same period last year.

Another autumn shot – although early autumn so still lots of green. I was experimenting with my aperture priority settings to focus on the ivy. I wanted to change the focus point from the centre to the left. I'd learnt fixing the focus point at my photography course that week clearly! I found that the image was a bit too green so I brought in some warmth by saturating the reds in the image rather than the whole image. I also brought in some reddish highlights to make it look a bit more colourful. I am quite pleased with the result but perhaps it's now too red… any suggestions!?
Taken at the Cass Sculpture Park – Goodwood. Near Chichester.

Companies condemn US Capitol riot, fire workers involved
Kate Tornone @KateTornone
Of all the trade groups that condemned the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last week, perhaps most notable was one from the National Association of Manufacturers, which represents more than 14,000 employers. The organization minced no words, directly calling on Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove President Donald Trump from office.
Calling the day's events "despicable," North America's Building Trades Unions President Sean McGarvey also called on Trump — and the lawmakers who objected to the Electoral College certification of President-elect Joe Biden — to step down.
Other industry groups such as the Associated General Contractors of America, Associated Builder and Contractors and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce also expressed strong disapproval of the day's events but stopped short of calling for the president's removal.
In addition, individual employers also began public termination of employees identified in photos and videos from the Capitol. At least 15 people who attended the rally have been fired or suspended from their jobs, or preemptively resigned amid growing outrage, according to The Washington Post.
One of them is 41-year-old laborer Doug Jensen of Des Moines, Iowa, who is facing federal charges after he was captured in photos and videos leading rioters up a staircase. Jensen's boss, Dick Felice, who owns Forrest & Associate Masonry, said he terminated Jensen's employment.
"He committed a crime as far as I'm concerned," Felice told The Washington Post.
In addition, a marketing company in Maryland said it fired an employee who was shown inside the building wearing a company identification badge. The employer said it supports the exercise of free speech but could not tolerate "dangerous conduct that endangers the health and safety of others."
Corporate activism rising
It's a sea change from a time when employers tried to stay out of external matters, according to Maurice Schweitzer, a professor of management at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. "This is unprecedented. Companies and organizations are reacting far faster than ever," he told sister publication HR Dive via email.
Employees increasingly expect employers to take a stand on social issues, several recent surveys have revealed, and some have said they'll bypass companies that don't fit their values.
The accompanying rise in corporate activism has been happening for about 15 years, according to Schweitzer. Staff look to business leaders to "not only be managers of an organization but also to take a stand on political or moral issues," he said. That change was seen clearly during the 2020 protests for racial justice that followed the police killing of George Floyd.
Employers should prioritize supportive resources and transparency again now, Schweitzer said. Be transparent about the challenges at hand and promise to keep employees updated, he recommended.
It's also important to realize that individuals are likely already anxious about the pandemic, disconnected because of social distancing measures and feeling its economic effects, he noted.
Large companies, especially, may have to acknowledge they likely employ workers who support the president and who are upset that they will soon face a different reality. "It's a very anxious time for everybody and I think the political uncertainty has added to that," the professor said. "Employers should reach out because that anxiety is going to harm productivity."
It's likely Biden will ease the sense of uncertainty and crisis that Trump created, Schweitzer said, which may lessen pressure on employers. But there are clearly social justice issues that will remain important, he said, especially as the workforce becomes more mobile — a phenomenon the pandemic is expected to accelerate.
Employers will compete in increasingly large talent pools and workers will be able to choose employers that align with their values. This means a continued expectation that corporate leaders are committed to social responsibility, he said.
"This is an enduring trend that's going to continue," Schweitzer said.
