Irish Water customers in South Dublin use more water than anyone else.
According to figures from the Central Statistics Office (CSO), households across the country consumed an average 351 litres a day in 2016, down 8.4pc on the previous year's figure of 383 litres.
However, households in Dublin 24 consumed the most water, with an average of 569 litres a day.
Areas within this postal code include Firhouse, Jobstown, and Tallaght. In contrast, Dublin 20 had the lowest annual average at 274 litres a day.
In 2016, Cavan had the lowest average consumption (298 litres) compared with Offaly which had the highest (398 litres).
The figures indicate that just 1pc of metered households use 25pc of all drinking water supplied by Irish Water.
This is said to be largely due to an abundance of leaks nationwide.
Around 75pc of annual total water consumption by metered customers was accounted for by 99.1pc of customers, using a consumption threshold of 1,000 litres per meter per day.
This means that just 0.9pc of Irish Water customers used a quarter of all drinking water in 2016.
Gerry Brady, from the CSO's environmental and climate division, told the Herald that this is because of leaks.
"There's no way that less than 1pc of households can use that much water. This is an indication that it has to be down to leaks," he said.
"Even though we can see that Irish Water has repaired a lot of burst mains there seems to still be a lot of leaks. This is having a big impact."
A spokesperson for Irish Water claimed any reduction in domestic use can be attributed to the company's First Fix Free programme.
Irish Water estimates that repairing defective water pipes in the Dublin area (totalling 8,000km) would cost around €5bn. The water network can supply 623 million litres while the typical daily requirement is 540 million. In the Dublin area, the buffer is just 2pc.
The population of the wider Dublin and eastern region is expected to grow by 500,000 in the next 20 years.

Take a trip to see the exotic wonders of the jungle with this new gambling game from Gamesys software. The Bubbling Falls video slot has 5 reels, 25 paylines, a relatively ow volatility level and a return-to-player percentage of 95.86%, making for an abundance of potential wins as the reels spin. And how the wins can fall when the game's cascading reels feature comes into effect, allowing new icons to fall onto the screen for an extra chance to find a winning sequence.
The overall look of the game is bright, colourful and vibrant, ensuring that the game offers plenty of visual appeal. Admittedly, not every punter wants to get stuck in the jungle with a bunch of cute animal characters, but it will probably be a more pleasant experience than being stuck in the jungle with a bunch of z-list celebrities!
Jungles provide some of the richest natural habitats on planet earth. Did you know that there about 50% of plants and animals are found in tropical rainforests despite the fact that these jungles only cover about 2% of the world's surface. So, it's no surprise that Gamesys software thought it apt to set this nature-themed slot in the heart of the jungle where an abundance of wildlife meets an abundance of potential prizes!
The reels of this free Bubbling Falls slot are inhabited by a selection of wonderful wild characters, from happy hummingbirds, friendly frogs, slamming sloths, mischievous monkeys, jamming jaguars and tremendous toucans. All of these animals are designed in funky cartoon form, making the slot machine seem a little bit on the juvenile side when compared with some of the more realistic wildlife slots out there.
If you want to spin this pokie for the chance to win some real cash, then you will need to place some bets on the reels. With 25 paylines and a minimum line bet option of 0.25 credits, casual punters will find that the low limit total bet is 2.50, which doesn't exactly make for the cheapest spins in the world. If you fancy yourself as a bit of a high roller, then you will be pleased to know that the game offers a high limit total bet worth 2,000.00 credits.
Most of the prizes on offer in the game are awarded as line bet multipliers, the biggest of which is a 1,000x multiplier for five toucan symbols on a payline. That isn't a bad base jackpot for a slot machine which has a low to medium volatility level - which essentially means that you shouldn't be waiting too long for a prize to come your way.
You may be wondering what bubbles have got to do with this jungle-themed slot machine. Well, all is about to be revealed. As the reels are spinning, you will notice that random icons can appear on the reels in bubbles. This isn't just for fun because is you manage to match up combinations of the same bubble symbols in the bubble bar below the reels, then you will be awarded with the standard prize according to the paytable with a 25x boost.
The slot is also played with a cascading reels element, meaning that consecutive wins can be made as winning symbols disappear from the game screen. Should players manage to make 4 winning formations from a single bet, they will activate the special pearl bonus game. During this game, gamblers simply have to pick their favourite jungle pet for the chance to win an extra prize. On top of this, the slot also has the usual wild symbols which can complete winning formations as well as scatter icons for total bet multiplier wins worth up to 40x.
Jungles provide a rich environment for plants and animals to thrive in and they also make for apt settings for video slot machines such as this game from Gamesys. There are loads of different games out there which promise to take spinners to the depths of the jungles, some of which have some absolutely stunning graphics such as Jungle Jim: El Dorado from Microgaming and Jungle Spirit: Call of the Wild by NetEnt.
Let's face it, jungles aren't exactly the most accessible places in the world, so why not enjoy the rich environment from the safe comfort of your home (this slot also has full compatibility with mobile and tablet devices so you can give it a spin on the go, too).
Granted, the game might not be quite up to scratch with some of the latest releases from Microgaming and NetEnt, but it makes up for what it lacks in graphic quality with some exciting bonus gameplay. Get stuck in.


Primary producers in aquatic ecosystems live in spatially and temporally complex environments. They depend on a consistent supply of light and nutrients, which are not evenly distributed in a water column. Spatial heterogeneity that is sufficiently stable over time leads to formation of discrete layers of varying compositions. Due to these layers and availability of light and nutrients, phytoplankton have different rates of production and amounts of biomass accumulation. Phytoplankton abundance, composition and production has changed greatly during mussel-driven oligotrophication of the large Laurentian Great Lake Michigan since 2003. Mussels have enhanced the role of ammonia in deep lake metabolism, both through excretion and decomposition of mussel tissue. We hypothesize that ammonium, which is scarce in Lake Michigan (<1µM), is preferred and more energetically efficient in comparison to nitrate, which is readily available (>25µM). We prepared a series of nutrient enrichments using water obtained from distinct layers in the lake. Ammonium provided at chronic low addition similar to excretion rates (500nM/day) completely replaced nitrate as an N source, and suggestion of better growth at low light was found. Substitution by ammonium at up to 15µM over 1 week occurred in each of 6 different surface and deep biomass maximum samples. Layers dominated by diatoms or picocyanobacteria occupied specific, slightly-overlapping zones near the 1% light depth in 4-6°C water. As many as 5 discrete layers have been found at any one time – further analytical work (microscopy) may reveal even more. We are currently building a model to define and simulate these conditions. This model considers biomass of two species of phytoplankton, interaction of two nutrient sources including terms to describe preferential uptake, and a term for the light field. Boundary conditions describe inflow and outflow of the biomass and nutrients in the water column.


324 Queen Street is a multi-level office tower that includes a ground floor base building accommodating retail tenants and a two level basement carpark. It was built in 1975 for ANZ Bank and was extensively refurbished in 2001.
Raylinc has been involved with supply of luminaires for a number of tenancy fitouts at 324 Queen Street since the 2001 refurbishment. In 2015 BSE Brisbane provided electrical services and lighting design for the ground floor lobby area.
The lobby employs a combination of ERCO luminaires with differing characteristics.
ERCO Compact lens wallwashers are used to light the vertical surfaces of the entry area and lift lobby and define the boundaries of the space. A pair of ERCO Quintessence recessed spots accent the soft furnishings that add a touch of cosiness to an otherwise harsh space. Although not strictly necessary, ERCO Skim downlights with oval flood optics provide an additional layer of ambient light over the dark floor tiles.
Externally ERCO Skim downlights with flood optics are used for general ambient lighting in the entry zone. ERCO Compact lens wallwashers positioned around a column that is home to the prominent '3 2 4' numbering of the building make the numbers appear to be illuminated from within.

Labour MPs move to reassert their position on the party's NEC
A motion, to be debated at next week's PLP meeting, will codify the PLP's position on the NEC.
By Stephen Bush
(Photo By Photo: Getty)
The parliamentary Labour party will amend its standing orders to strip a Corbyn ally of his place on the party's ruling National Executive Committee. Steve Rotheram raised eyebrows when he continued in post on the NEC despite taking a job as Jeremy Corbyn's parliamentary private secretary. John Healey, also elected to the NEC by the PLP at the same time, relinquished his post after being appointed to the shadow cabinet.
One MP described the current situation as "ridiculous". "You can't represent the backbenches in the NEC if you are not on the backbenches," they said. The motion, proposed by Margaret Hodge and seconded by Ann Coffey, will codify the unwritten arrangement, booting Rotheram off the NEC. The vacant post would then be subject to a by-election. It is likely that an outspoken critic of Corbyn will be elected to fill the post. Michael Dugher, recently sacked from the shadow cabinet, has been jokingly suggested for the role.
The full motion is below:
Motion to the PLP – to be debated by the Parliamentary Labour Party on the 18th January 2016.
Does your salary mean you're rich? And what makes you upper, middle or working class? We ask the British public
Proposed: Margaret Hodge
Seconded: Ann Coffey
That the PLP Standing Orders be amended as follows: In Section J, Elections insert at end: Division V (PLP) of the NEC Any seat held by a member of the PLP on the NEC under Division V who is in a frontbench position, including frontbench spokesperson, whip, or parliamentary private secretary to the Leader or Deputy Leader or to Cabinet/Shadow Cabinet, must immediately be declared vacant and filled in accordance with the procedure for a vacancy as outlined in the Party and PLP rules.

Q: Is anyone performed Function deployment in Azure Function in consumption based tier using zip deployment in Node? Am able to achieve the same with Curl command:
curl -X POST -u user123:P@ssword --data-binary @"C:\Ddrive\Porject\deploy-zip\wb-uc1.zip" "https://abc-world.scm.azurewebsites.net/api/zipdeploy"
Need to deploy .zip file from local system to Azure function app.
I am very curious to perform this by using the NodeJS REST call. Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

A: Using curl post and REST call in nodejs both works fine. Here are my steps for your reference:
1.Created an comsumption nodejs function,created a http trigger function for test.
2.Went to the classic function app management experience ui and downloaded the app content

3.Unzipped tonytestzipdeploy.zip file and modified the http trigger function cotent, then zipped again. The file structure is

4.Ran the nodejs code to deploy the zip file.
var request=require('request')
var fs = require("fs")

var dataString=fs.createReadStream("D:\\testProject\\NodeJs\\HttpTrigger1.zip");

var options = {
    url: 'https://tonytestzipdeploy.scm.azurewebsites.net/api/zipdeploy',
    method: 'POST',
    body: dataString,
    auth: {
        'user': 'tonytestweb',
        'pass': 'XXX!'
    }
};

request.post(options, (error, response) => {
    console.log(response.statusCode);
})

5.Got the 200 status Code, and checked the function in azure portal, it was deployed successfully.

A MR platform allows you to easily build 3D content and transfer it into a virtual environment. Immersive VR, like we use in our ShopperMX™ HIVE, allows teams and decision makers to then experience these new concepts within a fully-immersive VR simulation—they put on a VR headset, and feel like they are standing inside a store. It's the same idea as a mock center, but with significant space and cost efficiencies.
Retail teams put tons of time and effort into creating these centers, with the intent that they keep pace for at least a few years, given the significant investment. However, we are seeing that despite huge costs, traditional innovation centers are getting quickly outdated—and that timeframe is only going to shrink as the industry moves faster and faster.
A good solution is to keep your innovation center fresh by growing an adaptable library of virtual content. With MR equipment complimenting a physical innovation space, you can 'immerse' visitors in a multitude of different scenarios. You can add to the number of virtual environments, or show different environments at different visits. Within each virtual space, not only can you make micro changes like planograms and signage, you can also make macro space changes easily. For example, changing entire layouts or aisle flows.
Innovation centers should be about more than simply showing new concepts. It should also allow for quick and easy decision-making.
With virtual, not only can you visualize different concepts, you can also upload and integrate third party data—like Nielsen or Dunnhumby—combine it visually with concepts being considered, and analyze it quickly. Consider today's process of poring over multiple spreadsheets, sales data and compilations of various research reports and how it slows down decision making: since we can integrate data with where things are on the shelf, it supports speed of decision.
In addition, if these data points are updated regularly, you can easily integrate the latest data or refer back to older data to make comparisons.
One of the biggest problems with physical innovation centers is that they are typically used for conceptualizing and presenting only. But pretty visuals without insights get old very quickly. Truly innovative innovation centers need to do it all: and immersive VR is the answer to that. How?
Our platform allows shopper research to be conducted using real shoppers. We work with your shopper insights team to conduct a virtual test with shoppers using the content in the platform. The results can then be integrated within the ShopperMX™ HIVE virtual environment for clear presentation and decision making, complimenting innovation center concepts with shopper behavior outcomes.
Another challenge with physical innovation centers is that you have to be there to appreciate the structural and visual work being done. And while many centers and mock stores have state-of-the art conferencing capabilities, it's hard to bring remote attendees on a 'walk' around a physical space. This is where MR really provides a wonderful bridge. Internal teams can connect within the virtual space, allowing them to view and interact with new concepts, review data, and make tweaks.
It is also terrific for external collaboration; manufacturers and retailers or brand and design agency teams, for example, can actually stand in a space together to view concepts and insights and jointly make decisions. Moving products around to view them in a new arrangement, swapping out displays or handing a product to the other person is as easy as pressing a controller button. The dynamic changes from working across a table to working side by side—and with it, a more collaborative process emerges.
Physical innovation centers require people to come to them. But busy schedules and geography often cause meetings to have to be planned way in advance to accommodate a big group. However, having a VR toolkit as part of your innovation center allows you the opportunity to deploy your concepts directly to executives or retail partners.
Implementing an immersive VR tool like the ShopperMX™ HIVE within an innovation center allows you to bring your concept to any location—literally in a small suitcase. Have power sockets, will travel!
Sadly, the minute a physical innovation center is built, it starts to depreciate. Not so if you use MR. We continue to provide our customers with future thinking methods of getting to market. Whether it's to visualize a store of the future or a conceptualized glimpse of V-commerce, we help our clients ensure that their customers and decision makers are enticed to come back over and over again.
This is more a result of using MR versus a physical innovation center than a capability, but it's one of the most important reasons to consider a mixed reality component. Virtual simulations are helping companies bring positive change to the innovation processes—not necessarily by replacing physical mock centers completely, but by supporting creativity, simplifying collaboration, enabling shopper research and integrating insights and data within the innovation center—resulting in a more nimble operation, saving time and cost in the process.
I think there is a strong case for adding a MR component to your innovation center, but I'd love to hear from you. Do you have an innovation center in your organization? What kind of technologies have you implemented? What works and what do you wish you had done differently? We'd love to hear from you. Contact us to let us know, and to about revamping your company's innovation center.
And stay tuned for more as I explore the importance of collaboration – and how MR is changing this space.

In the Midwest premiere of "Rest" by 2014 MacArthur "Genius" grant recipient Samuel D. Hunter, a character expresses his disdain for jigsaw puzzles. He professes he enjoyed them until he realized the banality of the entire process. A company takes an already known picture, creates the puzzle and leaves him with the task of putting the pieces together. As a result of this realization, he abandons the puzzles and resorts to watching television as his pastime.
While I agree with the banality of the jigsaw puzzle, I believe it is analogous to our lives. We are somehow put here by a force higher than ourselves (the company), with a plan already set out (the picture), yet our responsibility for the remainder of our lives is to assemble the pieces together (the jigsaw puzzle). The characters in Hunter's play realize that this responsibility, no matter how banal, is no easy undertaking.
In a retirement home on the night of a record-breaking blizzard in northern Idaho, ninety-one-year-old resident Gerald (William J. Norris) has gone missing. He is presumed to have wandered off as a result of his twelve-year battle with dementia. The staff, which consist of a temporary cook named Ken (Matt Farabee), two longtime employees—Ginny (McKenzie Chinn) and Faye (Amanda Drinkall)—and director of the home Jeremy (Steve Key) gather around to support Gerald's wife Etta (MaryAnn Thebus). After failed attempts to search for Gerald, Tom (Ernest Perry Jr.), a resident whom the staff has mistaken as deaf for the last several years, reveals the truth about Gerald's disappearance. This revelation forces each of them to grapple with their own morality and the meaning of their existence.
In a spacious theater like the Victory Gardens' Zacek McVay Theater, Chelsea M. Warren's set design is impeccable. She has somehow managed to create a friendly, relaxed environment in which to hold so much pain and sorrow. Joanie Schultz's direction is skillful, providing a lovely balance between the heart-wrenching and the hilarious.
Adding to this, the performances are memorable with William J. Norris' brief yet harrowing performance of someone living with this devastating disease simply heartbreaking to watch. MaryAnn Thebus' ability to tackle every emotion of someone watching a loved one who can no longer hear the melodies that once dominated their life, is equally genuine. And Steve Key's comedic physicality and timing brings so much joy to what could have been a story dominated by doom and gloom.
Victory Gardens Theater, 2433 North Lincoln, (773)871-3000, victorygardens.org, $20-$60. Through October 12.

Mobile shopping to reach near $50B in 2014 as Apple, Inc. iPad retains 80 percent share of online orders
By Daniel Eran Dilger | 6 years ago
Apple continues to dominate as the platform of choice among mobile buyers, with iOS representing 54 percent of all phone orders and 80 percent of tablet transactions as the market approaches $50 billion this year.
Mobile now accounts for over one third of online shopping
Data compiled by the Custora E-Commerce Pulse covering 70 million consumers and $10 billion in transaction revenue at 100 retailers shows that mobile devices are increasingly displacing the online shopping that was virtually all (97 percent) performed using desktop PCs just four years ago (below).
Since then, e-commerce visits by phone have jumped from less than 4 percent to almost 25 percent, while tablets now account for just over 12 percent of site visits, leaving conventional PCs with 63 percent share.
The market is also growing dramatically, with Custora outlining an 111 percent 4 year Compound Annual Growth Rate, ramping from $2.2 billion in 2010 to $7.9B in 2011, $21.2B in 2012 and $42.8B in 2013.
This year, "it's likely that mobile e-commerce will hit $50 billion in sales," the firm stated, given first quarter revenues of $12.2 billion.
Mobile conversion rates still trail PCs, indicating that users frequently shop from their phone, but often place their orders later using PCs. While mobile devices made up almost 37 percent of site visits, they accounted for only 23 percent of online orders and just over 18 percent of revenue.
The firm's data also indicates that smartphones and tablets are also being used differently: while two thirds of mobile visits come from phones, the orders originating on both are closer to being tied, while tablets actually outpaced phones in the amount of revenue they drive.
The average number of minutes tablet users spent shopping at a site (3:16) were also closer to PC visits (3:39), compared to the shorter average visits by phone users (2:13).
Apple's iPhone and iPad are dominating e-commerce
"Apple's mobile supremacy remains," Custora stated, while noting that it "continues to be challenged, most notably by Samsung and more recently, Amazon."
The firm depiction of Apple's share among phones (above) suggests that iPhones are losing ground, with the company stating that iOS "orders went down from 75.1% in January 2012 to 53.6% as of March 2014."
However, the firm's numbers also show that Apple's current share among phones is greater than its lowest point in 2012, recorded after the launch of Samsung's Galaxy S3. Conversely, Samsung hasn't significantly improved its share since then, even as Amazon, Google, Microsoft's Windows Phone and everyone else have seen their collective share of orders amongst phones fall to below 16 percent.
In tablets, Apple's iPad maintains an even larger lead (above). Samsung tablets now represent just 12 percent of orders, while Amazon Kindle Fire tablets represented just over 4 percent, a notable figure given that company's strategic focus that almost exclusively targets online sales.
Google's tablets get a lot of media attention, but their users only placed just over 1 percent of online orders, while tablets from everyone else (including Microsoft's Surface) amounted to less than 3 percent.
Overall, throughout May 2014 Custora reported that Apple's iOS represented 78 percent of all mobile e-commerce orders, while all devices incorporating some form of Android software represented 22 percent. Other mobile platforms recorded less than 1 percent of order activity.
jungmark Said:
Doomed! It's fascinating Apple still has 50% of the orders even though Andtoid is "winning". I personally use my Mac to order but look things up on my iPhone. Wtf is Amazon doing?

And some people get mad when I claim that Android users in general are poor people.
They boast about how many activations they have, and how many units they sell (or should I say ship), yet, nobody seems to be using them. Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
macbook pro Said:
This data precedes the deployment of TouchID API. I think this will be fascinating to revisit in one year.

But it's an interesting theory, not much to back it up. Could just as easily be attributed to low quality android handsets, I owned one myself that was so slow I couldn't do anything much on it. As far as Internet search goes, they've already made bing the default search in Siri and Safari if I'm correct, I wonder what difference that's making?

1.Modi ji touching feet of Sonia Gandhi and Shaikh in Arab.
A picture message viral on social media purports to show Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi Touching Sonia Gandhi's Feet. There's also another picture doing rounds claiming to show Modi touching feet of a Shaikh in Saudi Arabia. The picture of Modi touching the feet of former Congress President Sonia Gandhi also accompanies messages suggesting Modi is requesting her to go easy on him. No, the claims are not facts – the pictures are just Photoshop creations.
Yes, the original picture does not actually show Modi touching the feet of Sonia Gandhi or Arab Shaikh for that matter. The picture taken from September 2013 in fact shows Narendra Modi, the BJP's candidate for Prime Minister, touching the feet of L.K. Advani, the former deputy Prime Minister in a public meeting in Bhopal.
Earlier, there was another picture of Modi touching the feet of MLA Akbaruddin Owaisi, which again was photoshopped. So, the pictures and stories claiming to show Indian PM Narendra Modi touching the feet of Sonia Gandhi, Arab Shaikh or Akbaruddin Owaisi are just Photoshop fakes.


IT and web hosting firm Brightsolid is launching its family history division Findmypast in the United States.
Brightsolid's online publishing division, which also includes genesreunited.co.uk, scotlandspeople.gov.uk and friendsreunited.co.uk - which it bought in March 2010 – collectively have 18 million registered users.
Findmypast will be competing in the US with market leader ancestry.com.
Brightsolid chief executive Chris van der Kuyl believes there is plenty of room for growth in what is a rapidly growing market.
He said: "We're not used to thinking of ourselves as small.
A market report published by Global Industry Analysts in January of this year estimated 84 million people are now active genealogists, each spending between $1,000 (£644) and $18,000 (£11,592) a year pursuing their hobby.
Brightsolid will now be able to offer US customers access to nearly 1,000 unique British, Irish and Australian record collections, including census collections, birth, marriage and death records, local parish records dating back to 1538 and UK ship passenger lists dating back to 1890.
The British Library's Newspaper Archives will also become available through findmypast.com later this year.
"This sort of added choice and competition has got to benefit US consumers," said van der Kuyl.
Brightsolid has already recruited a US team, based in a new office in Venice, California.
It is also a participant in the 1940 US Census Community Project, which is currently indexing the 1940 US Census, which will be made available on findmypast.com.
More than 40 million Americans report British ancestry according to the 2009 American Community Survey and a further 40 million report Irish ancestry.
Brightsolid said it aims to become "the go-to family history site, first for Americans of British and Irish descent, and eventually for all Americans".
Last February, Brightsolid launched a new US-based genealogy business, Censusrecords.com, which offered customers access to US census records for the first time.
Dundee-based Brightsolid, part of the DC Thomson publishing empire, reported a 75 per cent rise in turnover for the 2011 financial year to £28.4 million and a 47 per cent rise in gross profits to £13.5 million.

Trochlear nerve
What does the trochlear nerve do?
Trochlear nerve lesion
Trochlear nerve is a fourth cranial nerve (CN IV) that carries motor fibers to innervate the superior oblique muscle, an extra-ocular muscle in the orbit 1, that controls abduction and intorsion of the eye 2. Trochlear nerve damage results diplopia (double vision) with inability to look inferiorly when the eye is adducted (down and in). Trochlear nerve originates in the symmetrical trochlear nuclei within the midbrain and is the only cranial nerve to exit from the posterior surface of the brainstem (Figure 1). The left and right trochlear nerves then travel dorsally surrounding the periaqueductal gray matter, decussating before exiting the dorsal midbrain below the inferior colliculus. After curving around the midbrain, it enters the inferior surface of the free edge of the tentorium cerebelli, continues in an anterior direction in the lateral wall of the cavernous sinus where it runs anteriorly/ventrally above the abducens nerve and ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve and enters the orbit through the superior orbital fissure above the origin of the levator palpebra muscle and continues to extend anteriorly to the superior oblique muscle 3. In the cavernous sinus, a few sympathetic fibers join the trochlear nerve with the possibility of some sensory fibers from the trigeminal nerve.
Figure 1. Trochlear nerve
The only muscle the trochlear nerve innervates, the superior oblique muscle, is the longest and thinnest muscle among the extraocular muscles. The muscle belly originates from the back of the roof of the orbit, and the tendon extends between the roof and medial wall to the pulley (known as the trochlea). The tendon then reaches backward and downward passing the superior rectus muscle to the upper back of the eye. The trochlea of the superior oblique is a U-shaped cartilage attached to the upper front of the orbit.
Because of the unusual shape and direction of the superior oblique muscle afforded by the trochlea, the muscle can depress, abduct, and intorts the eye. Because of the muscle's placement at the upper back of the eye, the muscle elevates the posterior of the eye, causing the front of the eye to become depressed. The muscle also causes abduction of the eye, moving the pupil away from the nose, and intorsion, rotating the eye such that the top of the eye moves toward the nose.
The superior oblique muscle is the only extraocular muscle that can lower the pupil with the eye adducted. Thus, to isolate the function of the superior oblique muscle from the other extraocular muscles, the muscle can be tested by requesting the patient to adduct the eye and then ask to depress the eye. Failure to depress the eye during adduction indicates a problem with the superior oblique muscle or the trochlear nerve 4.
The trochlear nerve because of its fragility and its extensive intracranial course is especially vulnerable to trauma compared to most cranial nerves. Thus, the most common cause of an acquired defect of the trochlear nerve is head trauma. Traumatic trochlear nerve palsies are associated with motor vehicle accidents and boxing, as they involve rapid deceleration of the head. Because the trochlear nerve is so fragile, this can occur in minor head injuries that do not involve loss of consciousness or skull fracture.
Other significant causes are microvascular, congenital, and idiopathic. Microvascular trochlear nerve palsy usually occurs in the setting of diabetes in patients who are 50 years of age and older. The nerve, however, is less affected compared to the other ocular motor nerves (CN III and CN VI). These nerve injuries are relatively transient with symptom resolution in a few months without treatment.
Congenital trochlear nerve palsies are almost always unilateral. These nerve palsies in children can be initially mistaken for torticollis because of the head tilt many of these children display. Diplopia is not usually present in these patients, and in fact, these patients may compensate for the nerve palsy until adulthood, when diplopia and/or blurry vision may result in a supposed new onset of nerve palsy 5.
Other more minor causes of the trochlear nerve palsy include Lyme disease, Meningioma, Guillain-Barre Syndrome, Herpes zoster, and Cavernous Sinus Syndrome.
Most trochlear nerve palsies are unilateral. However, because the decussation of the trochlear nerve pair happens when the nerve pair is near each other, a single lesion at the dorsal midbrain can cause bilateral trochlear nerve palsy 5.
Lesions of the trochlear nerve can either involve the nucleus or the nerve, but both virtually present with similar symptoms. The only difference is that a unilateral trochlear nuclear lesion affects the contralateral nerve and superior oblique muscle, while a fascicular lesion affects the ipsilateral nerve and muscle.
If other ocular motor nerves are involved in the patients' symptoms, a lesion in the cavernous sinus or midbrain is most likely, as these nerves are relatively near each other in this space.
Trochlear nerve palsy can present in patients as diplopia, but can also present as blurry vision or a minor vision problem when looking down like reading a book or going down the stairs. The diplopia presented in trochlear nerve palsy is either vertical or diagonal and is worse with downward gaze. Compensation for the nerve palsy usually includes a head tilt to the opposing side and tucking in the chin, so the affected eye's pupil can move up and extort, instead of downwards and intort. During clinical examination, the eyes will display hypertropia with the affected eye being slightly elevated relative to the other normal eye. Under cover, the affected eye will show an upward drift relative to the other eye 6. There is no established treatment for superior oblique myokymia due to two main reasons: a lack of sufficient patient populations to perform a randomized controlled clinical trial, and the unpredictability and variable time course of superior oblique myokymia, making it difficult to evaluate the efficacy of existing medical therapies 7. Variable success has been seen with topical beta blockers, carbamazepine, phenytoin, baclofen, gabapentin, clonazepam, mirtazapine, memantine, and surgery 7. Botulinum toxin injections have variable success rates and could potentially only provide temporary relief due to difficulty in isolating the superior oblique muscle from the other extraocular muscles [2]. In many cases, continuous medical therapy at dosages on a case-by-case basis has been correlated with favorable prognosis in superior oblique myokymia patients 7. However, unfavorable side effects of these drugs make treatment more difficult, and gabapentin is often used as a favorable first-line of treatment due to the relatively few side effects 8.
Beta blockers such as propranolol, timolol, and betaxolol have recently been reported as successful treatment alternatives due to their ability to reduce blood pressure amplitude. This would mitigate symptoms caused by vascular compression of the trochlear nerve 7.
When medical management is unsuccessful, surgical intervention may be used 9. The procedures most commonly used for superior oblique myokymia are superior oblique tenotomy along with inferior oblique myectomy, or microvascular decompression of the trochlear nerve 7. The latter may only be used when vascular compression is identified as the cause of superior oblique myokymia by MRI. In some cases, patients with superior oblique myokymia see spontaneous improvement or recovery 10. In most patients, however, chronic episodes of superior oblique myokymia occur and symptoms can attempt to be controlled using various medical treatments or surgical interventions 10.

Treatment of trochlear nerve palsies includes surgical procedures, the most common one being the weakening of the inferior oblique muscle. Diabetic nerve palsies virtually do not need additional treatment as they resolve spontaneously.
Another condition that involves the trochlear nerve is superior oblique myokymia which causes spasms of the superior oblique muscle. Symptoms include transient vertical diplopia. The cause is not known but may be related to other conditions that cause microtremors. Rarely this can cause superior oblique muscle weakness ((Adamec I, Habek M. Superior oblique myokymia.

C14- Strength & Responsibility
Posted on November 2, 2020 by UntamedS
Hi, if you notice there are some changes on the site, the homepage is different and I added a text size adjuster, it's by the center-left, so yeah. I might change the theme soon too, so hopefully, the changes improved your reading experience, let me know any more suggestions you might have. Happy Readings 😁
Su Zhe received the news of Chen Zhi's injury after he arrived at the Indoor Training Center the next morning.
After the previous night's gathering ended and he returned to his apartment, he didn't pay attention to the various internet posts but instead tried to use the system bonus that he had drawn yesterday, the hurdling skill.
Under the guidance of the system, he laid down and closed his eyes, then entered an empty training ground, where a serious hurdling coach was already waiting for his arrival.
In the time that followed, he was imbued with a great deal of hurdling experience, and in that strange space, he was very shocked at the way he gained experience as if he had experienced everything the coach dictated to him personally. The system was so powerful that it seemed to be far above his expectations.
In the six hours of deep sleep that followed, he began to train the basic movements of the hurdles continuously under the guidance of his coach, until these basic movements formed muscle reflexes in his training and became his reflex movements.
Su Zhe couldn't help but be amazed by the efficiency of this training, and such training sessions a total of 60 hours, Su Zhe could almost predict that after 60 hours, he could master all the knowledge skills and combat techniques that a professional hurdler should have.
This was almost equivalent to an athlete needed to go through several years of practice to master the basics, his body would probably be able to get used to the changes brought about by this training.
When he woke up the next day, Su Zhe clearly felt that his body's behavioral habits seemed to be slightly out of sync with his brain's thinking, but this incongruity was rapidly disappearing as he self-regulated after waking up.
The effects of training in the system could be carried over to reality!
This knowledge made Su Zhe somewhat shocked and excited, and he was going to take advantage of today's training gap to try out the effects of the techniques he had mastered at the hurdling group's venue.
But as soon as he arrived at the training hall, he saw Su Yinsheng and Zhao Changhe looking worried as they were on a video call with someone.
"Dad, Uncle Zhao." Su Zhe greeted softly.
Su Yinsheng and Zhao Changhe who were in the middle of the call noticed the arriving Su Zhe by the sound of his voice, and then a cheerful voice came out of the phone.
"Is it Xiao Zhe who's here?"
Su Zhe was stunned and immediately heard whose voice it was, "Brother Xiao Zhi? Dad, Uncle Changhe, what are you guys talking about with Brother Zhi?"
On the other end of the video, it was Chen Zhi, a leading domestic sprinter.
From the age of 14, when he was selected by Su Yinsheng from the school in S city, to Chen Zhi entering the national team at the age of 22, Su Yinsheng was almost raising him as his own son. At that time, Su Yinsheng was planning to accompany Chen Zhi to the national team if it wasn't for the leaders in charge of the gymnastics team and sports bureau in S Province who tried to retain him.
After Chen Zhi entered the national team, Su Yinsheng also always paid attention to all of his games and training, and the communication between the two was not separated by the change in distance.
But this time, the injury was temporarily concealed from him, and it was only when the basic status of the injury had been confirmed after an examination and had to be released to the public that Su Yinsheng learned of the news.
It was already late when he received the news last night, and Su Yinsheng tossed and turned all night, not daring to affect Chen Zhi's rest, and ended up talking to Zhao Changhe on the phone for half a night, and they both guessed that Chen Zhi's injury this time was in preparation for the World Championships Challenge in August.
The qualification standards for this year's Olympic Games were particularly high, and had created a lot of excitement in the sports world since the announcement. But the standards had been announced, and they could only try their best to meet the participation standards.
Chen Zhi obviously hoped to run an excellent performance in this race, so he increased his training, leading to this accident.
It wasn't until he made it to the screen that Su Zhe realized that Chen Zhi was in the hospital at the moment, and he suddenly understood the reason why Su Yinsheng and Zhao Changhe were looking worried.
"Brother Xiao Zhi, what's with this injury?" Su Zhe quirked his eyebrows, his tone serious.
"Ah, it's nothing." Chen Zhi laughed cheerfully, if you only looked at his face, you couldn't even tell that he was injured: "It's just a little injury, it'll be fine in two months, don't worry."
Su Zhe knitted his eyebrows, "Okay, we're all athletes, is it interesting for you to lie to me by saying such things?"
Because he had been hanging out with the gymnastics team since he was a kid, Su Zhe has been following Chen Zhi since he was 7 years old, and Chen Zhi spoilt Su Zhe as his younger brother all the way.
Chen Zhi on the other end of the video had to smile, he also knew that he couldn't hide it from Su Zhe, but he still didn't want to make his brother, who had been spoiled since childhood, worry too much.
Perhaps it was because they had been on the phone for a long time before, but the doctor beside Chen Zhi interrupted the conversation by gesturing that it was time for an examination.
Before hanging up the video, Chen Zhi was still smiling as he said to Su Zhe, "Little Zhe, go for it, I'm waiting for you to surpass my records." Apparently, even though he was sick, he had paid attention to Su Zhe's race yesterday.
It was only after the video hung up that Su Zhe learned about Chen Zhi's current stress and the circumstances leading up to the injury, and was barely relieved to learn that Chen Zhi's injury report had been sent to Germany, while preparing for an emergency trip to Germany for injury treatment and subsequent rehabilitation.
"10 Seconds 05 ……"
This terrible threshold, at this time, was lying in front of the eyes of all Olympic participating countries, this reach line could be said to be the most stringent Olympic reach line, and even reached the level of the last Olympic final.
Although Chen Zhi once ran in 10 seconds, the athletes' competitive level was not unchanging, because of the training state, technical adjustment, physical condition, psychological factors, and even the field and other factors, their performances would have certain ups and downs.
Since this year's season, Chen Zhi had had his ups and downs in competition because he was in a technical adjustment period, and since July, it had been a real period of qualification for the Olympic Games, which was exactly why he was pushing himself to increase his training in hopes of regaining his best form as soon as possible.
As the highest-ranked 100m runner in China, even if no one in China could run into the reach line, he could still participate in the Olympics as the highest-ranked runner in China, but as a real athlete, no one wanted to see themselves in that way, to be "comfortably" arranged into the Olympic stadium.
He did not want his country's qualification for the 100 meters to come from the organizing committee's "care", after all, when a runner reached the Olympic standard, it was also the time to promote the country's comprehensive sports strength.
"Okay, this is not something you should be thinking about right now." Su Yinsheng rubbed his forehead, "This year is a big year for athletics, and there are national events coming up, and this time, in order to encourage young athletes, there are three additional alternate places that need to be added for an extra match before the start of the National Championships, and the top three overall finishers will be qualified for the National Championships. We've already prepared you to sign up for the alternates and let you try out for the Full Championships."
Zhao Changhe also flipped out the record booklet that he had brought with him at the moment at this point and flipped through the pages, "Your results from yesterday changed too much, we're going to run the test again today, your post-race acceleration yesterday was amazing, but your starting reaction speed and starting acceleration running technique is still lacking, and your father and I will need to make some more adjustments to our training plan for the next race. "
Seeing that Su Yinsheng and Zhao Changhe had finished their words, Su Zhe hesitated for a moment and still spoke, "Dad, Uncle Zhao, I want to try out for the World Championships Challenge."
Hearing Su Zhe's words, Su Yinsheng and Zhao Changhe both frowned and did not speak.
In fact, they had initially considered whether or not to let Su Zhe try out for the World Championships Challenge, with Su Zhe's performance at the Provincial Games, it was still very competitive to participate in the Challenge, but firstly, they weren't sure if Su Zhe's form was stable, and secondly, the National Championships and the World Championships Challenge were both scheduled in August, and there were less than 10 days between the two competitions.
Su Zhe since the resumption of training, he had only participated in the Provincial Games once, he had not experienced the cyclic adjustment of the state between training and competition, in two consecutive participation in the highest level of the national tournament of great intensity, they were not sure that Su Zhe's mind could withstand.
In the end, out of prudent consideration, Su Yinsheng and Zhao Changhe decided to let Su Zhe participate in this National Championships only for the time being, to feel the atmosphere of the national level tournament.
Su Yinsheng understood that Su Zhe was stimulated by seeing Chen Zhi injured and wanted to be a hero to help Chen Zhi relieve the pressure. But this kid didn't think about it, as Chen Zhi was the top 100m runner in the country, could anyone help share his pressure?
How many people had spent years unable to cross the gap between 10.18 and 10.05 seconds?
Many runners, in order to even breakthrough from 10.18 seconds ago to 10.17 seconds, needed to undergo bone-crushing training – and might not actually succeed.
Su Yinsheng glanced at Su Zhe and silently turned his head without replying.
Zhao Changhe, of course, understood Su Yinsheng's meaning and patted Su Zhe's shoulder, "Little Zhe, don't be anxious, train well, we'll first stabilize your current performance before we can talk about your progress and development later."
The reason for this attitude of his father and Zhao Changhe, Su Zhe naturally understood in his heart, he just couldn't help but think of the pressure Chen Zhi shouldered and the difficulties facing the athletics world at the moment.
He was swelling up ah ……
Su Zhe patted himself on the head and also shook out those thoughts in his head for the time being.
His current identity was still just a small athlete who had not long moved from the entertainment world to the sports world, and the only achievement he was good at was winning the record-breaking Provincial Games.
In this status, what was it if it wasn't self-defeating in the eyes of others?
Train hard!
Su Zhe took a deep breath and warned himself to always remember to take it easy.
After a busy day of training and 10km jogging, Su Zhe was only free to board Weibo, ready to say hello to his long-lost fans and @ Chen Zhi for a good treatment.
Never expected that this time, when he opened his mobile Weibo, his phone was truly stuck for a full 2 minutes. The unmoving interface made him almost restart his phone.
Finally, 2 minutes later, Weibo finally returned to normal, and Su Zhe looked at the message prompt bar below the boundary surface, which was already crowded with bright red numbers.
After winning the 100m championship of the S Province Provincial Games yesterday, Su Zhe certainly understood that there would be a lot of @ themselves on Twitter, but wasn't this number a bit overly alarming?
He opened the message with a confused look on his face, only to see numerous private messages all repeating the same phrase-
[@ Su Zhe Luming, come back! @ Shao Xingchen is paying attention to you! 】
Looking at this row after row of messages, there were not only Shao Xingchen's fans, but also many "philosophers" who were also leaving crazy messages, fearing that his failure to return sentiment in time would affect passers-by's perception.
It was just that Su Zhe remembered that yesterday the publicity of the crew still told him that he should take time to follow the Weibo of the crew and the Weibo of the fellow actors, and at the same time bring the identity of the characters in the drama and interact.
So ……
What was happening was that Big Brother Shao followed him first and @ed him, and he was late in replying back to him?
Su Zhe was greatly embarrassed, no wonder all of Shao Xingchen's fans were frantically private messaging him, especially after he went online, or perhaps they received his online prompt, the private messages started to increase one after another, all with the same content.
Su Zhe immediately found Big Brother Shao's Weibo page to follow, and flipped to the message he had @ed him yesterday and forwarded it again.
[@ShaoXingChen Thank you, Lu Ming believes that Xie Wei's next journey will also be infinitely more exciting and worthy of expectations!]

Purity: Not Just for the Unmarried
with Russell Moore | February 11, 2013
Dr. Russell Moore says you WILL encounter sexual temptation in your marriage.
You're faithful to your spouse, right? You've never cheated, and you wouldn't think of starting. And, your spouse feels the same way, right? Consequently, you're not a risk for sexual temptation, right? Russell Moore says not so fast. You WILL encounter sexual temptation in your marriage, because sexual temptation is a demonic response against the holy sexual intimacy in your healthy marriage. Moore outlines how to guard your marriage bed against the assaults of the devil.

With Russell Moore
Bob: People don't just fall into a marital affair. Dr. Russell Moore says, "There is actually a diabolical plot that is unfolding as you engage in marital unfaithfulness."
Russell: Sexual immorality is part of a conspiracy to work with you, in your sin, in order to trap you, like an animal, who is caught. Paul says, "Flee from sexual immorality;" and why is that the case? It's because this warning applies to all of the people of God.
Bob: This is FamilyLife Today for Monday, February 11th. Our host is the President of FamilyLife®, Dennis Rainey, and I'm Bob Lepine. We hear a lot of talk today about sexual purity prior to marriage. What about sexual purity in marriage? We're going to hear about that today. Stay tuned.
And welcome to FamilyLife Today. Thanks for joining us. And I want to say a very special happy birthday—
Dennis: I'll take it!
Bob: —to my good friend, Crawford Loritts, who is celebrating his birthday today. [Laughter] Isn't it?
Dennis: You got me on that one! [Laughter] Crawford and I have the same birthdays. He lives in Atlanta, Georgia. We always try to call each other before the other does. Of course, he gets up much earlier than I do because it's Eastern Time in Atlanta. You nailed me on that, Bob. You got me!
Bob: I just thought I'd sneak that in there as you and Crawford both celebrate birthdays—"Happy birthday to both of you," is what I really wanted to say.
Dennis: Thank you. Thank you very much.
Bob: You know, I was thinking about this being the Valentine's season. Everybody is thinking about romance. It just feels, to me—like, in the culture anymore—Valentine's Day has taken kind of a sad turn because romance, in our culture today, means sex. You stop, and you look at it—we've lost—
Dennis: Married or unmarried.
Bob: Yes, we've lost the sense that romance is about fond affection for one another—
Dennis: Right.
Bob: —and we've just reduced it to—
Dennis: Chivalry.
Bob: —the basics. Yes.
Dennis: You know—winning the hand of your bride, your wife. Yes, it's about competition. Just because you're married, doesn't mean the competition is over.
Bob: Folks need to get back to an understanding that romance is something—well, we talked about it last week as we heard you and Barbara talking about romance, and passion, and how we express our affection for one another—how we love one another. That is done in non-sexual ways.
But I was also thinking of a message that you and I heard back, a number of months ago, when Dr. Russell Moore, who is the Dean of the School of Theology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, was talking to students there about the dangers that married couples can get in when they find themselves tempted by sexual impurity in a marriage relationship.
Dennis: And although he is talking to a group of future pastors, he's talking to our listeners today because the temptations are very real, on a number of fronts. You just need to know—as a listener, stay all the way to the end. This is a very entertaining message, especially, here at the season of Valentine's.
Bob: It's entertaining; but it's also powerful, and one that I think every married couple needs to hear. We're going to hear it this week. In fact, we're going to hear Part One right now. Here is Russell Moore, who has just been introduced to the students by Dr. Randy Stinson, at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, with a message on moral purity from First Corinthians, Chapter 6.
[Recorded message]
Russell: Dr. Stinson says he already commends everything I have to say. So, I'll say this to Dr. Stinson: "We, Moores, might be a little people; but we're fiery! I guarantee you—if you get enough adrenaline in me, I can whip any man in this room!" [Laughter]
The moment when that adrenaline started to surge through me—and what I believe was the highest level in my life—and possibly at a toxic level—happened at a True Love Waits retreat, sometime in the 1990s. I was serving as a youth pastor. I'd been asked to speak at this event that was devoted to talking to teenagers about sexual purity and about saving themselves, sexually, for marriage. I had my youth group with me, as well; and I was here with a group of other youth groups.
I was about to speak about sexual purity, and I was seated on the platform. They said, "Before you speak, we're going to have one of the teenagers stand up and give her testimony." So, she did—girl named Laurie. She got up and said: "Some of you, in this room, know that I had sex with Chad last year, right over there; and I've repented of that. Some of you don't think I've repented of that. Just because Chad was dating Tina when we got together, you can't judge me! You can't judge me!"
I'm sitting here, thinking, "This has suddenly turned into some type of a daytime talk show." [Laughter] It went on, and on, and on. Then, I had to stand up and preach the Bible. As I was reading the text, I mistakenly thought to myself, "Well, at least we have hit rock bottom;" but, "Oh, no," because the next day was an event for guys only. The male teenagers were to come to this event. Laurie's dad, who was a leader in that church, was leading that event. He stood up and started talking to this group of mostly eighth-grade boys about sexual purity. He said:
As some of you heard last night, my daughter, Laurie, had sex with Chad over there. Chad, it was—what November?—October? It was October. They've repented of that. I want to tell you something right now. You boys think that sex is so great. You think that sex is just so fantastic. It sure seems like it now, but just wait until you've been married to the same woman for 30 years. It's the same thing—day in and day out—and night in and night out—you won't think that sex is all that great then.
Well, the Lord has given me a gift that I'm not sure is included in Ephesians, Chapter 4—but I can read thought-balloons sometimes. As a former eighth-grade boy, I can especially read the thought-balloons, over all our eighth grade boys. It is, "Well, if this is what we have waiting for us, then, let's just get while the getting is good.
The more he talked, the madder I became. The reason why is—I've reflected upon that man's attitude over the years—it's not just that he's mistaken—although he is—it's that, at the core of what he was saying—despite all his good intentions—was something deeply and profoundly satanic.
If you are going to be the kind of husband, or the kind of wife, who will maintain moral purity in your marriage, you must understand what it is that you are wrestling against. What you are wrestling against is not merely biology—what you are wrestling against is not merely whatever circumstance you happen to be in your life, or in your ministry, or in your marriage—what you are wrestling against is an ancient, spiritual battle that cuts to the very core of what the Gospel, itself, is about.
Whatever sexual temptation will come into your marriage is not about you! It is about something that has been going on for millennia—and something that was purposed and planned, in the mind of God, before the cosmos ever was. Your struggle and your battle is precisely what the serpent offers in the Garden, when he says to the woman—simultaneously—"See yourself as an animal." She's been given dominion—the Bible says—"over all the beasts of the fields." Now, she is taking direction from a "beast of the fields." Also, "See yourself as a god. You can decide what is good and evil."
You will face this pull, throughout your marriage, because this is exactly what the Apostle Paul is talking about when he says the issue in sexual purity is not simply about self-control—although it is about self-control. It is about a kind of self-control that is doing warfare against the temptation of Satan. You will face this pull and this devastating drive toward sexual temptation. I want us to deal with it, this morning, in several areas.
The first is in the most obvious area of adultery. Almost anybody in this room can look around and see the kind of carnage that takes place in the lives—even of people that you know. Some of you have pastors who preach the Word of God to you or who baptized you, who were later destroyed in an adulterous affair. Some of you have friends that have started out in ministry with you, who have been destroyed by an adulterous affair.
Just this last year, I heard of a friend of mine, from years ago—a man that I had studied for ministry with—who was caught in an adulterous affair. The worst part about it was a mutual friend said: "He sat his children down. He said, 'I know this is wrong. I'm leaving your mother for another woman. I know this is wrong, but God will forgive me because that's what God does.'" The mutual friend said what was most disturbing to him was hearing his children scream. I put down the phone and vomited out of anguish—imagining myself, looking into the faces of my children and saying, "Everything that you have ever known is being torn to shreds." I said, "I can't even imagine that!" but then—it hit me, "Two years ago, he couldn't have imagined it either. Two years ago, that scenario would have been just as shocking to him as it is to me, right now!"
That's because sexual immorality is not something that suddenly happens to you. Sexual immorality is part of a conspiracy and a plot to work with you, in your sin, in order to—as the Book of Proverbs says—"...trap you, like an animal, who is caught." Paul says, "Flee from sexual immorality. Be warned about joining yourself in adultery," and why is that the case? It's because this warning applies to all of the people of God.
We typically think that sexual temptation and sexual opportunity happens to sexy people. You see love affairs on television and in the movies in which you have these magnetic, attractive people who lined up together in these affairs. That is not the way that it happens! The ugliest people I've ever known have had affairs. [Laughter] I have seen—I can't tell you how many men who have left beautiful, godly wives for women that you would not even notice if you passed them in the hallway. This is not a matter of how sexy or how attractive someone is. The satanic powers are noticing you! They are watching you! That is especially the case for those of you who have stood up and said, "I am pursuing God's call upon my life to stand, and to speak for Christ, in proclaiming the Oracles of God." They will do anything to see to it that the Gospel is discredited by your animalistic impulses.
Most people, who find themselves drawn into adultery, are not drawn into adultery because they are so oversexed. Most of them, instead, find themselves in that place because marriage is exactly what Dennis Rainey said, a few minutes ago—a mission.
It's an economy. It's an order that has been put together—and it is hard labor together—to bring forth the bread from the earth, and to be fruitful and multiply, and to raise up the next generation, and to get along with one another, through all of these sufferings and all of this strife.
Most of the ministers of the Gospel, that I know, who have wrecked themselves in affairs, have done so because this is a means, initially, of escape. They find themselves in a situation where talking to her or visiting with him has all of the vibe and the excitement of a high school romance. You don't have to worry about who's going to take the garbage out, and who's going to separate the recycling, and who's going to discipline the children. It simply is a means of flight from responsibility. It is a way for the ego to be gratified as someone starts to see himself or see herself as the object of attention.
But notice what the Apostle Paul says here. It is shockingly radical! The Apostle Paul says, "You belong to each other." He does not simply say, "Flee adultery." He does not simply say, "Don't be joined to a prostitute." He does not simply say, "Hey, it's okay to be married"—those of you who are wondering about that. He says something significant here. He says, "Husbands, your body belongs to your wife; and wives, your body belongs to your husband."
Do you realize what a shocking statement that is to be made in a patriarchal culture in which so many people in the pagan world see women as being simply a form of property of men? For Paul, not only to speak to the wives—as Peter calls them, "joint heirs of the Gospel with you"—but to say, "Husbands, your wife has authority over your body. You are one flesh."
Sometimes, people get their ideas about marriage from watching films and watching movies.

Bob: Well, we've been listening here to the first part of a message from Dr. Russell Moore about purity in marriage. I think a lot of couples think to themselves, "Well, once you're married, the purity issue goes away because, once you're married, it's the two of you and your sexual relationship is pure before the Lord," —but there are ways for impurity to drift into a marriage relationship.
Dennis: That's right. And earlier, on the broadcast, I said, "Just because you are married, doesn't mean you can stop competing for your spouse." You're competing for her heart—for his heart. You're competing against all kinds of romantic urges—whether it be pornography, whether it be the opposite sex, whether it be career or children. I mean, there are all kinds of things that can romance our hearts—can take our hearts out of the marriage relationship. I think he is warning us today about—especially, protecting your heart as wife—as a husband—against any chance of it being connected to someone of the opposite sex.
Bob: Any temptation—romantically or sexually—outside of marriage—you're headed down a dangerous path, if you follow that.
Dennis: Romantic attractions don't start in bed. They start with an emotional connection—maybe, even a spiritual connection. There are a lot of affairs that start in churches or in small group Bible studies. So, my advice to you is—if there is any catalytic response, taking place with anyone, other than your spouse, extinguish it. Put it out! Turn your back on that other relationship. Don't add any fuel to the fire. Get out of there! Flee because it not only stands a chance of igniting into a bigger fire—it can destroy your marriage, your family, and your legacy.
Bob: You address this in the book that you and Barbara wrote, Rekindling the Romance, where you talked about emotional affairs as the precursor of what, ultimately, blossoms into full-blown marital infidelity. I think one of the ways we guard ourselves against this kind of temptation is by being alert to these issues. I'd encourage couples to read through the book, Rekindling the Romance.
I'd also encourage them to attend one our Weekend to Remember® marriage getaways. That's the kind of preventative maintenance couples need to protect their marriage. You need the time away together. You need to have your thinking saturated with what the Scriptures teach about the marriage relationship.
Let me encourage you to go to FamilyLifeToday.com. There's information there about resources we have available—Dennis and Barbara's book, Rekindling the Romance—a great book, by C.J. Mahaney, called Sex, Romance, and the Glory of God—and there is information about the upcoming Weekend to Remember marriage getaway schedule for this spring. I'm going to be speaking, this weekend, at the getaway in Hershey, Pennsylvania. You just got back from being at the getaway in Washington, DC, at the Gaylord National Hotel. We've got getaways taking place, throughout the spring, in a variety of locations.
Go to FamilyLifeToday.com to order resources that can help you strengthen your marriage in this area or to find out more about a weekend getaway for you and your spouse. Again, our website is FamilyLifeToday.com. You can also reach us by phone at 1-800-FL-TODAY. That's 1-800- "F" as in family, "L" as in life, and then, the word, "TODAY".

We hope you can join us back tomorrow as we're going to continue to hear from Dr. Russell Moore about the subject of purity in marriage: "How do we guard our marriages?" "How do we keep our marriages pure from sexual temptation and sexual sin?" We're going to hear about that tomorrow. Hope you can be back.
I want to thank our engineer today, Keith Lynch, and our entire broadcast production team. On behalf of our host, Dennis Rainey, I'm Bob Lepine. We will see you tomorrow for another edition of FamilyLife Today.
