I'm trying something new. So far I've stuck to telling you about things that other people have written and said and I've tried to stay under 300 words per post. I want to try occasionally sharing some of my thoughts and going way over 300 words. I'm going to call them reflections. Here's the first one; let me know what you think.
I was recently on the staff for the first time at a church camp. I did a couple of worship services and a talk. As I prepared for the camp before getting there I was thinking about the topic for the week and what sorts of things were important to know about the topic, what sorts of things people might be confused about, etc.
For the first two days of the camp, though, I wasn't leading anything just attending things. And I started to notice that I was learning things from other people. Believe me, I know that it's painfully obvious, but I realized that I wasn't the only person there that the Lord was using to teach people. And it wasn't just the other ministers there that I was learning from. I was learning from women as well as men, people older than me and people younger than me, people who had probably read the Word more than me and people who had probably read it less. And I realized that the Lord is happy to use anyone and everyone to teach people the truth and lead them to heaven.
The Lord gave the word; great was the company of those who proclaimed it (Psalm 68:11).
the Word can only be taught mediately through parents, teachers, preachers, books, and especially through the reading of it. Nevertheless, it is not taught by these, but by the Lord through them.
The Lord teaches people the Word not just through preachers/ministers/priests but also through parents and teachers and books and everyone.
This summer I've been working on a dissertation about the use and abuse of the dynamic between priests and lay people. One of the things I've been trying to understand is what makes priests necessary. The specific question I have now is, if the Lord uses everyone to teach the truth, what makes the teaching that priests do different from the teaching that everyone else does?
Steve Simons' perspective is that every believer is a priest.
God calls every individual to walk side by side along the road of life with others, to give counsel and encouragement, to study and teach His Word for those less educated in its message, to worship and praise Him together in communities, to witness important life events such as marriage and death and teach the sacraments of baptism and the Lord's supper, and to lead others by means of the gifts of vision, perception, and wisdom to discover more of the blessings that God has in store for all people. These gifts are that set apart the pastors, the preachers, the ministers, and the priests – and these are all roles that any believer can take if that is where they are called by God and gifted to serve.
I really like the sound of this. I love the way he describes how God calls all of us to help each other on the road of life and, most of all, I love his point that Jesus Christ is the only teacher, priest, mediator, and God. The only thing I'm not sure about is this idea that it's not good to have people set apart as priests, except inasmuch as a certain person is particularly gifted in studying, teaching, leading, witnessing, etc.
Here are some of teachings that make me wonder about this.
The most extended treatment of the priesthood and its role that I'm aware of is in New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Doctrine 311 - 325 / Arcana Coelestia 10789 - 10806.
If priests are meant to be overseers who are "appointed to administer those things which relate to the Divine law and worship" and who separate people who believe otherwise than the priest, then it sounds like not everyone can be a priest.
Along these lines, consider this passage from Arcana Coelestia.
Are priests what are meant by "teaching ministers"? Again there's this emphasis on the importance of avoiding disturbances in the church. In this case disturbances are avoided, not by separating people, but by having only certain people teach.
But is this really what the Lord wants? A church where only certain people are allowed to teach others. A church where a group of overseers determines what can be said and what cannot be said? It sounds awfully authoritarian and not nearly as appealing as the picture of a classless church that Steve painted. And yet, if we are going to use the Writings to form our understanding of what the church should look like, we need to integrate these teachings into our thinking about it.
Here's my attempt at making sense of it. Think of a priest as a professional doctor. He's been to med school, by the time he opens his own practice he's put in hundreds of hours as an intern, he's under some form of supervision by the medical board, he stays up to date on recent developments in understanding diseases and treatments, and he talks with other doctors about different cases. For all of these reasons you would listen to what he teaches you about your health differently than you would your friend who just read some article online and has an opinion about it.
You still learn about health from your friends, and parents, and P.E. and biology teachers in school, and from your own reading of books and articles, and from just paying attention to how your body reacts to various things but that doesn't mean that you don't need to have doctors around anymore. You need someone whose job it is to spend more time than you do studying and thinking about health. And you need the medical community to speak out against new health or treatment practices that they don't consider safe.
Now, the medical community can be wrong. I haven't researched it at all (apart from glancing at a Wikipedia article about it), but my impression is that, a couple of decades ago, doctors typically looked askance at chiropractic treatment and may have recommended against it to their patients. These days, it seems that most doctors would advise their patients to get chiropractic treatment, at least for the treatment of back pain. So the medical community was wrong to speak against it and people would have benefitted from receiving treatment but that doesn't mean that, in general, people would be better off without the medical community and professional doctors. Even though they can be wrong, the protection that comes from having them around is useful.
You may find that your particular professional doctor is not very good. He doesn't stay up-to-date, he over-prescribes, you don't agree with his medical philosophy, whatever. And you find that your aunt Betty, on the other hand, though she's not formally trained in medicine, has lots of good, useful advice for you about your health. That doesn't mean that you'd be better off relying on your aunt Betty and your own research for all your medical decisions: it just means that you need to find a new doctor, in addition to listening to your aunt Betty and doing your own research.
Does the analogy work for you?
There are lots of other issues that I chose not to get into like who gets to decide who gets to be a professional priest and what exactly does separating someone who makes a disturbance look like. But mostly what I wanted to share with you is my realization that everyone has something important to teach other people and that there still is a need for a professional priesthood. As I continue to work on my dissertation about the dynamics between clergy and laity I hope to gain a clearer picture of how laity and clergy can interact together in a healthy and supportive way where everyone can learn from each other and from the Word together.
I want to end with a cool passage from Apocalypse Explained that reminds us that really it is the Lord doing the teaching.
The analogy with doctors worked for me.
Malcolm, I found this very moving. :) Know your dissertation will be great; it sounds like you have been able to make the process of working on it personally meaningful, too. Can't ask for more than that!
I want to know whether priests should stick only to those tasks that are particular to them. Should a hospital MD run a childhood obesity awareness program in her community? Should priests be community builders and leaders as they are currently asked to be?
"You know that the rulers of the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. It shall not be so among you, but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant. Whoever desires to be first among you shall be your bondservant, even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."
In the eyes of Pharaoh's servants, and in the eyes of the people. That this signifies, with those who were in subordination there, is evident from the signification of "servants" and of "people," as being those who are subordinate; for by Pharaoh are represented the chief ones who infested, under whom the rest were subordinate. That the subordinate are signified is because among the evil as well as among the good, that is, in hell as in heaven, there is a form of government, that is, there is rule, and there is subordination, without which society would have no coherence. But the subordinations in heaven are wholly different from the subordinations in hell. In heaven all are like equals, for one loves another as brother loves brother; nevertheless one sets another before himself in proportion as he excels in intelligence and wisdom. The very love of good and truth causes everyone, as it were of himself, to subordinate himself to those who are superior to him in the wisdom of good and the intelligence of truth. But the subordinations in hell are those of despotic authority, and consequently of severity; for he who commands rages fiercely against those who do not favor all his commands; for everyone regards another as his enemy, although outwardly as a friend, for the sake of banding together against the violence of others. This banding together is like that of robbers. They who are subordinate continually aspire to rule, and also frequently break forth in revolt, and then the conditions there are lamentable, for then there are severities and cruelties and this takes place by alternations. From all this it can be seen how the case is with subordinations in the other life.
5732. And he commanded him that was over his house, saying. That this signifies influx from himself, is evident from the signification of "commanding," as being influx (n. 5486); and from the signification of "him that was over his house," as being which communicated. That it was from himself, namely, from the internal celestial, which Joseph represents, is plain. That "to command" is influx, is because in heaven no one is commanded or ordered; but thought is communicated, and the other acts willingly in accordance therewith. Communication of thought together with a desire which wills that something be done, is influx, and on the part of the recipient is perception, and therefore by "commanding" is signified also perception (n. 3661, 3682).
He that is greatest among you shall be your minister. Whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled, and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted (Matt. 23:11, 12).
He does this who loves his neighbor from the heart, or who feels delight and blessedness in doing good to others for no selfish end; that is, who has charity toward the neighbor.
I like the analogy of the doctor. I think it holds in a lot of cases.
One of the things I have been pondering is the difference in function between "priest" and "prophet". Since I am currently pondering other things, I will give you some things to think about and maybe you will find a good answer for me.
Teaching is technically the prophet role. I couldn't find the passage, but I am sure it is there (yeah, yeah, yeah), that says at this day the priest and the prophet are rolled together.
Some questions: is that rolling together permanent? How does that fit with pastor? Are pastor, priest, and prophet all the same role? Can parts of these roles be delegated beyond the priesthood? If so, can all people perform them equally well?
May the Lord bless your work on your dissertation. I would love to talk to you/read your work when you get it all wrapped up.
1) In religion, SELF examination is crucial, and I certainly hope we're never going to have a ministerial inquisition into anyone's lives, whereas in medicine, diagnosis often requires a doctor's examination, because self examination is entirely insufficient. Yes, talking to a minister may help people sort out their thoughts and feelings, but it's more like a psychological counselor, not a medical doctor.
2) What we know about medicine is continually changing. That's why doctors have to read up on new experiments, new procedures and new diseases. What God said to mankind is not changing, we have the same set of books whether minister or lay. These books (unlike medical texts or research papers) can usually be understood by people with a reasonably good education. While it is certainly valuable to have paid professionals who are given the time to extensively study and analyze these works, it is critical that everyone devote study to the Word. And yes, if I had some terrible disease, I'd read up, to make sure I could adequately discuss my condition with my doctor, but ultimately, I'd probably trust my doctor(s). With the Word, I seriously doubt I'd take a ministers word for it (pardon the pun!). I would read it myself, talk to others, read other texts, etc.
So, while I think it's an ok analogy, perhaps a better analogy would by psychology. Because with psych, yes, professionals can help, and are better read, but in many cases, patients can and should be helping themselves as well. I worry that the medical doctor analogy has the possibility of far to broad an interpretation.
But perhaps I'm simply overanalyzing your analogy, and if so, I'm sorry!
You cannot delegate your spiritual health to anyone else because only you can live your own life. You have to know God's answers for yourself and discover His will for your own life in order to have an actually personal and saving relationship with the true God and eternal life, Jesus Christ.
Organizationally, Jesus was a priest after the order of Melchizedek, not after the order of Aaron. God's mission was to open direct, unmediated connections with every human being in creation. So any model for the priesthood that inserts a mediator between God and people is against His will.
The priesthood of all believers is not a removal of the priesthood, its a removal of the laity. The only "lay" people in Christianity are those who are not yet baptized, and so are not yet Christians. This is why the clergy are said to be inside the church and the laity outside it. The priesthood are all those who accept the rights and responsibilities of being members in the body of Christ, working to build His kingdom throughout the whole earth by living their faith in Him and sharing the good news of salvation available in a personal, unmediated relationship with the only God, Jesus Christ. In more theological terms, by living and providing the witness and testimony of Jesus Christ.
So, when you are considering what a "priest" is, consider the overwhelming collection of reprimands and warnings in scripture against those who, like the Aaronic priesthood and institutional leadership Jesus fought on earth, insert themselves between God and people, and claim for themselves either roles that properly belong to God or tasks that properly belong to people.
"The reason why they are said to have adulterated and profaned the truths of the Word, is, because they have applied the truths of the Word to obtaining dominion over the holy things of the church and heaven, and to claiming to themselves the Divine authority of the Lord; and to apply the truths of the Word to obtaining dominion over the holy things of the church and heaven, is to adulterate them; and to apply them to the purpose of claiming to themselves the Divine authority of the Lord, is to profane them. That they have confirmed their dogmas from the Word, is known. But read them with attention, and you will see that they applied all those things taken from the Word to obtaining dominion over the souls of men, and to acquiring to themselves Divine power, authority, and majesty. It is on this account that Babylon is called "the mother of whoredoms and the abominations of the earth""
God doesn't want us to take control or stand in His place to represent Him as His vicars on earth. God commands us to administer, facilitate, support, and serve in His kingdom.
We aren't the masters, we are His servants.
"You are worthy to take the book, and to open its seals: for you were killed, and bought us for God with your blood, out of every tribe, language, people, and nation, and made us kings and priests to our God, and we will reign on earth."
I have been a member of staff of the camp you refer to for many years. A "staff" person in this case is a person who participates in the process of preparing for the camp. A staff person is not greater than anyone else at the camp. A staff person is the best example of servanthood I have personally experienced. When the camp actually happens, however, it is as you experienced. ALL the people at the camp are part of the community building that happens. There is no obvious signs that any person is special, including the clergy. It is just that some have stepped up and prepared to lead. Those leaders are honored for their service. And anyone - including children - are called to the same level of service as any of the staff. Of course, the staff work hard all week to administer the operations of the camp. Only rarely have I seen any need for a "command." And it is always done by applying the truth in love. Much more needs to be said to fully describe the miracle happens every year. Suffice to say that your experience is exactly the experience we all have every year at camp BECAUSE of its design, which is that everyone is a servant. Even the name tags all look exactly alike (until the person decorates their own)! Thanks for your reflections. There is much food for thought in all the comments as well.

The sacred heart of Scotland's first University
The United College of St Salvator and St Leonard, colloquially known as Sallies Quad, is one of the oldest remaining parts of the University of St Andrews and sits at the geographical and spiritual heart of the town. The iconic steeple of St Salvator's Chapel dominates the skyline on the western approach to St Andrews — a familiar sight for countless generations of students.
From the Raisin Monday foam fight in first year through to graduation, the Quad is the setting for many significant student rites of passage and central to the St Andrews experience.
The Quad also serves as a back-drop to international celebrations and community events, providing a space that connects the University with the wider St Andrews population and beyond to a global network of alumni.
The recent refurbishment of the Quad has preserved this beautiful and historically important space, ensuring that it will remain a focal point of University life for many years to come.
St Salvator's College
The Quad has not always looked as it does today, having evolved along with the changing needs of the University. Most of the current buildings date from the 19th and early 20th century when the last major round of redevelopment work was undertaken.
The original St Salvator's College was founded by Bishop James Kennedy in 1450. Kennedy's vision for the college was 'absolute integration of church and academic life, teaching and preaching'. There was a strict night-time curfew and all members of the college were required to 'live together in a collegiate manner, and to eat and sleep within the bounds of the college'.
The most obvious difference between Kennedy's college by the late fifteenth century and the buildings that exist today is that there were two quadrangles, with an inner cloister attached to the back of the chapel.
Site plan and perspective reconstruction of the medieval College from R G Cant's The College of St Salvator (Edinburgh, 1950)
The College consists of two spacious Courts. Over the gate is a very fine Stone Spire. And to the right, as in the Colleges at Oxford, is a handsome Church or Chapel, in which is an ancient noble Monument of the Founder and behind it… a neat Cloister well paved and supported with Pillars; but neither it, nor the Church, so well preserved as in the Colleges of England, but seem rather entirely neglected. On the Ground Floor of the other side of the other Court are the common Schools, very spacious; and over these Schools a Hall, full 50 foot long and 30 foot wide and high. There are in the Court very good Apartments for the Masters and Scholars, all built of Free-stone, but unaccountably out of repair, they being hardly at the Pains of keeping out the Rain or mending the Windows.
John Mackay describes St Salvator's College in his 1723 Journey through Scotland.
With the exception of St Salvator's Chapel, there are no signs of these buildings visible today but the foundations do still exist under the central grass area.
The United College of St Salvator and St Leonard
By the middle of the 16th century, the University had extended to three colleges — St Salvator's (1450), St Leonard's (1512) and St Mary's (1538).
In 1747, dwindling funds and declining student numbers led to the union of the two Arts colleges forming the United College of St Salvator and St Leonard.
St Salvator's College was chosen as the home for the new United College, and by 1772 the buildings and gardens of St Leonard's College were sold off with the exception of St Leonard's Chapel, which remains part of the University today.
Over the 19th and early 20th century a rolling programme of redevelopment saw the Quad transformed into a space that modern day students would recognise.
This redevelopment was made possible by Robert Dundas, 2nd Viscount Melville, who persuaded Parliament to fund the rebuilding of the College buildings during his term as Chancellor of the University (elected in 1814).
In 1828, the government purchased land for a new east building to house four large schools and professors' rooms. This was designed in neo-Jacobean style and completed in 1831. From 1904 to 1906 the east range was extended to its present size by local architects Gillespie and Scott.
Work on the north block with its elaborate doorway flanked by columns — now home to Lower and Upper College Halls — started in 1845. A wall with an arched entrance to the gardens beyond was also built from the north wing to the western boundary — these gardens became the United College tennis court and are now used as a site for marquees for formal events.
The Cloister
Situated on the north side of St Salvator's Chapel, the Cloister has served many purposes since its erection in the mid 19th century. Before restrictions on the use of personal data, exam lists and degree results were posted here.
The Cloister today
The results of the [bursary] Competition were posted in the Cage on the opening day of the session and I found myself occupying the 19th place which satisfied me, for I had taught myself all the Greek I knew and a good deal of the other subjects as well. As I stood gazing at my name a highlander took his place beside me. His name was not there, or was not among the successful and after a minute or two he turned away, saying resignedly to himself. ""Ach well, I'll just go away home again and go to the herring fishing!" He came up again later and is now, I believe a UF minister somewhere.

The photograph above, from 1911, shows the glassed-in Cloister installed in 1864. This was intended as a recreational and social space for students. It served many purposes including first housing the Debating Society, then a gymnasium and later a reading room.
The Gymnasium I remember vividly on the South side of the Quadrangle. It was a great meeting-place on wet afternoons. We had no instructor, and were left to the freedom of our own wills, so did not learn much. I am afraid the most popular bit of apparatus was the trapeze, used simply as a swing.
Robert Stewart, University of St Andrews student, 1879-81.
From the curse of Patrick Hamilton's initials to the May Dip, the University of St Andrews has many unique traditions and superstitions, some as old as the buildings themselves.
The Quad, as the ancient heart of the University, is central to several of these including the famous Raisin Weekend celebrations — a long held St Andrews tradition and an initiation rite for first year students.
Originally, third and fourth year students were tasked with introducing first years to university life and in return were thanked with a pound of raisins. Folklore has it that students who did not repay their "academic parents" were punished by being thrown into one of the town's fountains.
In more recent years, however, Raisin Weekend has developed into a slightly more boisterous occasion.
On the afternoon of Raisin Sunday, academic mothers are tasked with throwing a tea party for their academic children including food, drink and party games. The academic fathers then take over for the evening and escort their academic children to various parties around town. Celebrations continue on into the wee hours of the morning.
Raisin Monday sees the notorious foam fight in the Quad. First year students are dressed in elaborate fancy dress costumes by their academic mothers and given "raisin receipts" — originally proof that academic children had provided their pound of raisins.
All dressed up, the first years parade through town to the Quad where the annual foam fight commences. At the stroke of midday the foam fight is declared over and the first years return, fully initiated, to Halls of Residence for showers.
The refurbishment of the Quad was one of the University's 600th anniversary fundraising initiatives. It was felt that important upgrades were necessary to make sure the Quad continued to meet the needs of a world-class university.
The main aims of the refurbishment were to enhance the Quad's environmental appeal while also introducing a hidden infrastructure to make the space a more suitable venue for major events. This was achieved by replacing the degraded tarmac with natural stone paving; extending the middle lawn area and adding seasonal planting; improving disabled access and installing hidden power, water and lighting for events.
The refurbished Quad, looking towards St Salvator's Chapel
To raise funds for the refurbishment project, friends and alumni of the University were offered the unique opportunity to have their names engraved on the new flagstones to be placed in the Quad.
Alumni from every corner of the globe responded, with accompanying stories and special memories from their time at St Andrews.

Flagstone for Savannah Sloop
Flagstone for Jim Robertson Botany
In April 2006, one of our great friends, José Maria Calem, was killed in a car accident travelling back to his native Portugal. Ze, as he was universally known whilst at St Andrews, was a larger-than-life character. He was a leading member of the Kate Kennedy Club and organised the 2003 May Ball, the first event of its scale to be held at Kinkell Byre. His death was a huge blow to many of us and, when the chance came to commemorate Ze's life with a stone in Sallie's Quad, a group of his former flatmates and friends raised the necessary sum. We are very proud to have Ze's name engraved in perpetuity in a place which meant so much to him during his life.

I first became aware of St Salvator's when I was at Madras in the 1950s and saw crazy paper footprints, glued 'walking' from the bottom to the top of the Chapel tower, as part of student RAG week. How the crowds chuckled and tried to guess the identity of the culprits! Medical studies and Music Society activities, enhanced by friends and St Andrews' unique grace, shaped the rest of my life. My family, initialled on a paving stone, have enjoyed frequent visits to St Andrews and understand its significance. My contribution to the Quad project celebrates the lifelong gratitude I feel for the University.
A Peter Warren, MB ChB 1968
We are pleased to have the opportunity to contribute to St Salvator's Quadrangle in a way that will embed my daughter's memories of a wonderful four years in the heart of the University. We don't know how any other university education could compare: the challenging educational expectations, the aesthetic beauty of historic buildings and ruins, class peers from every corner of the globe, the foam fight, walking the pier, heated debates with friends of many nationalities and afterwards, as it turns out, great career opportunities. We are happy to help future generations of students enjoy the same experiences and opportunities
Rebecca Perehudo Minton, parent of Molly Minton MA 2013
Thanks to the special Anniversary gifts given by 360 generous alumni, the refurbished Quad is ready for future generations of students to enjoy and for another 600 years of memories to be made.

Jan Brewer Decides Against Special Session on Redistricting
By Abby Livingston
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer (R) has taken at least one option off the table when it comes to Republican efforts to battle an independent redistricting commission's draft map.
In a statement, Brewer wrote that she "will not call a Special Session" in a Republican effort to "pursue a ballot proposal to repeal or reform" Proposition 106, the legal basis of the Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission.
The idea of repealing the law altogether had been bandied about among Republicans in Arizona. The Brewer statement is striking in that it is the first time since the redistricting fight blew up in early October that she has backed off of any options opposing the new map.
Brewer acknowledged the discussion about changing the law, writing, "I know that some legislators, especially those of my political family," want her to call the special session.
"But we cannot act in haste — or in anger — when it comes to something as critical as the way in which Arizona draws its congressional and legislative districts," she added.
Previously, Brewer removed the commission's chairwoman with the consent of the state's Republican-dominated Senate during a one-night special session called for that specific purpose. The Arizona Supreme Court overruled that action Nov. 17.
Both politicians and lawyers have been perplexed by what to do next. The commission and its reinstated chairwoman, Colleen Mathis, returned to work today.
State Senate President Steve Pierce told Roll Call last week that in moving forward, "the ball is in Gov. Brewer's court."
The commission's map creates the possibility that Democrats could pick up seats in the state's U.S. House delegation, even though Republicans control much of the state government. The new lines enraged state and national Republicans, and the redistricting debate devolved into one of the nastiest in the cycle.
Proposition 106 was passed in 2000. The intent of the initiative was to take the power of redrawing Congressional lines from politicians and put it in the hands of an independent body.

We're home and have lunch with us. Arden was acting strange in the car so I'm going to check her BG before she eats. By acting strange I mean she was getting upset about her haircut that we have scheduled for 4:30 today.
2:59pm... Arden's BG was 75 right when the insulin was peaking. What that means is the little bit of food she had in the car saved us from her being at 50. At 75 I have about 5 minutes to get her BG up at least 20 points because the insulin is dragging her lower and at it's quickest. If I hadn't been aware of what was happening Arden would have seized in about 15 to 20 minutes. All because I made a 20 minute unscheduled stop. I thought that a juice she had on the way would buy me more time then it did.
3:22... Test again, she is 87... I'm winning. Can't get her to take any more syrup besides she say's she is feeling better. So I'll wait a few minutes and test her again.
3:26...she is 100 and the peak is over. We aren't done yet but definitely out of trouble. The insulin is still going to drag her down a bit (maybe 15-20 points) over the next hour. Her hunger is back now that she isn't low but now she doesn't want the food she wanted before. I have 20 minutes to get her to eat before we have to leave for her haircut.
Arden is in good spirits and eating a donut... Which will undoubtedly send her BG too high.
I set the video camera on a desk while I was getting Arden stable. Be warned this is going to be shocking to anyone that has never seen a person with diabetes experience a very low blood sugar.


A New Orleans classic, this sandwich knocks it out of the park. Zatarain's® Seasoned Shrimp Fri and Cajun Hot Sauce are the perfect combo for crispy, spicy, fried shrimp. Load 'em onto toasty French bread with all the fixin's and take a big bite. Love it? We thought so.
Mix mayonnaise and 1 tablespoon of the hot sauce in small bowl. Cover. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Pour vegetable oil into deep fryer, large deep skillet or Dutch oven, filling no more than 1/3 full. Heat on medium heat to 350°F.
Meanwhile, mix 1/2 cup of the Shrimp Fri and water in medium bowl. Place remaining 1/2 cup Shrimp Fri in large resealable plastic bag. Dip shrimp in batter. Shake off excess. Place battered shrimp in the plastic bag with the Shrimp Fri. Seal bag and shake to coat evenly. Discard any remaining batter in bowl or Shrimp Fri in bag.
Fry shrimp, several pieces at a time, in hot oil 2 to 3 minutes or until golden brown, turning once. Drain on paper towels.
Mix melted butter and remaining 3 tablespoons hot sauce in medium bowl. Add fried shrimp; toss to coat well.
Spread mayonnaise mixture on bread. Divide shrimp among bread. Top with lettuce, tomato and pickle slices, if desired. Serve immediately.

I've always had a twisted relationship with the working life, which means I have not still been able to understand how much this affects the private life and vice versa.
Until not long time ago, I was always complaining about how my work was destroying completely my inspiration and, above all, removing any will to do things: I was doing my duty as a good citizen, but I was letting the life slide on me, just looking forward to the weekends or holidays.
And this also had a negative influence on my private life.
Or was it the opposite?
Difficult to understand the connection, as it is difficult to break the two things.
I still hate my job, not because I don't want to work, but because I keep seeing it as a waste of time, while there are millions of things to do outside, a whole world to discover.
But now I appreciate more my job because, while I'm there, I can carry on my projects, taking advantages of my current creative phase: I work less, and still get paid for it, exploiting and screwing that system I never accepted.
And so working becomes no longer a burden, but a way to improve my life, to chase my dreams.
The way to reach the moment when, with the smile on my face, I will resign, and finally take my time, and the world I want and deserve.


No, this is not our family Christmas tree. This is my Christmas Meyer Lemon. Isn't it wonderful! Family and friends that come for a holiday visit can't believe it's real. I put it outside every spring – it flowers with beautiful, white, heavenly scented blossoms. Then in the summer and fall it produces tiny, green, dime sized fruit. I bring it inside before the first frost and I have 12 – 20 deliciously sweet lemons to enjoy all winter long.
Happy New Year from Redhead Garden!

Standoff ends after armed man allegedly tried to break into Cincinnati FBI office
The suspect was fatally shot by law enforcement, state police said.
ByAaron Katersky, Josh Margolin, and Meredith Deliso
A general view of the FBI Cincinnati Field Office, after police closed off Interstate 71 North after reports of a suspect attempting to attack the FBI building, in Cincinnati, Aug. 11, 2022.
Jeffrey Dean/Reuters
An armed man who allegedly tried to break into the FBI's Cincinnati field office Thursday was killed by police after an hourslong standoff, officials said.
Following a chase and a failed negotiation, the suspect was fatally shot by police after he allegedly raised a gun toward law enforcement officers, an Ohio State Highway Patrol spokesperson said during a press briefing.
The suspect was identified as Ricky Shiffer, 42, multiple law enforcement sources told ABC News. Ohio State Highway Patrol identified the suspect as Shiffer on Friday. Law enforcement officials briefed on the probe told ABC News the suspect was a "suspected domestic violent extremist."
Ohio State Highway Patrol started pursuing the suspect shortly after 9:30 a.m. after he allegedly fled from the field office.
A large police presence was captured in Wilmington, Ohio, after an alleged break-in at the FBI's Cincinnati office, Aug. 11, 2022.
Jenna Victor
Troopers followed the suspect, who was driving a white Ford Crown Victoria, to Clinton County, where shots were fired, according to officials.
The suspect, who officials said was armed with a rifle and wearing body armor, had been contained in a cornfield off Interstate 71 near Wilmington, according to Clinton County Emergency Management. He left his car and used it for cover during the standoff, state police said. The suspect appeared to have a gunshot wound to his leg but was mobile, according to a law enforcement source.
Bryan Vaughan
The suspect was allegedly armed with an AR15-style rifle and also brandished a nail gun during the alleged break-in attempt at the FBI field office in Cincinnati, according to multiple law enforcement sources.
Members of the media stand outside of the FBI's Cincinnati Field Office, after police closed off Interstate 71 North after reports of a suspect attempting to attack the FBI building, in Cincinnati, Ohio, Aug. 11, 2022.
After attempting to negotiate with the suspect, police started to move in to take him into custody, Ohio State Highway Patrol said. After the suspect allegedly raised a firearm toward them, law enforcement fired their weapons, striking him at around 3:40 p.m., the agency said. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The FBI's field office in Cincinnati released a statement to ABC News.
"The FBI is now reviewing this agent-involved shooting. The FBI takes all shooting incidents involving our agents or task force members seriously. In accordance with FBI policy, the shooting incident is under investigation by the FBI's Inspection Division. The review process is thorough and objective, and is conducted as expeditiously as possible under the circumstances," the statement read.
Clinton County Emergency Management alerted around 4:30 p.m. that the law enforcement response "has ended."

A lockdown was in effect within a 1-mile radius of the standoff scene. People were instructed to lock doors and stay inside.
The man led police on a chase along Interstate 71 before exiting near Wilmington. Ohio State Highway Patrol said shots were fired from the suspect's vehicle before it exited and, once it pulled off the interstate, gunshots were exchanged between the suspect and police.
No officers were injured, police said.

It remains unclear why the man allegedly tried to break into the FBI office but it comes amid a series of threats following the FBI's court-authorized search of former President Donald Trump's Florida residence.

Let me know what recipe that was and I'll email it to you asap. Thank you, Amy!
I used your cinnamon roll coffee cake recipe a few months back and decided to make It again for Christmas, but I can't access the recipe anywhere! Any chance there is another way to access the recipe?
Hi Brittany! I've been having issues all day with my site's recipes going up and down and I am unable to access the recipe, either. However, I am working on fixing this issue as we speak and will hopefully have it up real soon.
Saw the Chicken with Spinach and Artichoke on Pinterest but could not find the recipe, went directly to the website…no luck! Spent a lot of time looking any help?
The site went down for a little while, but it should be back up and running now. The link to that recipe is here: https://diethood44.wpengine.com/baked-chicken-spinach-artichokes/ Enjoy!
Hi Phyllis! I am going to send you the recipe via email in a minute. Thank you!!

Berenice, regina d'Egitto (HWV 38) es una ópera en tres actos con música de Georg Friedrich Händel sobre un texto italiano de Antonio Salvi escrito en Italia en 1709.

Fue estrenada en el Covent Garden en Londres el 18 de mayo de 1737. No tuvo el éxito que cabría esperar viendo los resultados de otras óperas del mismo compositor y fue representada solo cuatro veces.

Está basada en la vida de Cleopatra Berenice, hija de Ptolomeo IX (protagonista de la ópera de Handel Tolomeo) y está ambientada en el 81 a. C.

Esta ópera rara vez se representa. En las estadísticas de Operabase  aparece con solo una representación en el período 2005-2010.

NNNNN Domains: NNNNN.com Buyout Redux?
Based on random sampling of the NNNNN.com space, it seems there are approximately 1,200 NNNNN.com's available to be registered. This is based on 40 random samples of bulk searches of 500 random NNNNN.com's, with an average of 6 available per search. The margin of error is fairly low given the number of random searches. I hope to go through and get an exact count when I have the time.
I had a group of 658 random available NNNNN.com I found on 5/16, and as of today, only 501 are still available. 157 were registered, or 15.7/day.
Over the same time period, 399 NNNNN.com dropped, and 21 of those were not registered. So approximately 2.1 domains per day dropped over this time period. This represents a net decrease in available domains of 13.6/day.
If this pace continues, NNNNN.com's should be bought out in 88 days, or Sunday, August 21, 2011.
Of course, there is no reason to assume this pace will continue, perhaps these last 10 days saw much more NNNNN.com buying than usual, more/fewer drops than usual, who knows. But it will be interesting to see how the rate of registration and dropping continues in the days and weeks to come.


1 step entry! Garage included in sale price! Very well maintained! Close to I-985, NEGMC, downtown, shopping, food, and Lake Lanier! Split bedroom plan. All bedrooms have a walk-in closet!

Cryptocurrency and Web3 Tax reporting platform CoinLedger raised $6 Million in funding
CoinLedger, Texas based cryptocurrency, and web3 tax reporting platform has now secured $6 million in a funding round.
CoinLedger was founded by David Kemmerer. It offers a platform that streamlines and simplifies digital asset tax reporting for cryptocurrency, NFT, and DeFi users.
It integrates with lots of wallets, exchanges, and blockchains. Users can leverage the platform to gain a major holistic view of their crypto portfolio and tax obligations across the entire Web3-economy.
David Kemmerer, CEO, and Co-Founder of CoinLedger, said, "As the cryptocurrency industry has evolved, the lack of simple, user-friendly crypto tax and accounting software, specifically for DeFi users, has become more than problematic. We continue to see a future where decentralized cryptocurrency and digital asset use-cases become the norm, not fringe activities amidst centralized exchanges. We're excited to bring on such a strong group of investors who share our company's vision and values."
Kim Trautmann, Head of DRW Venture Capital, said, "As a crypto investor, manually calculating your capital gains and losses across potentially thousands of transactions leaves a large margin for error. The tax reporting and portfolio management resources that CoinLedger provides are critical for the crypto environment to continue to scale and is the kind of technology DRW Venture Capital is excited to work alongside as it continues to broaden its crypto tax services."
CoinLedger's Latest Funding
The round was backed by CMT Digital, FinTech Collective, DRW Venture Capital, Voyager Digital Limited, and Volt Capital.
The blockchain startup, as of now, has plans to use the new funds to scale its team and expand several product offerings, notes the announcement.

Can you please tell me how I can do that in another way ?

5 albums that changed my life: Pietro DiGennaro
Photo credit: Hanna Mazza
THE ORIGINAL: Midnight Larks, Bad Spell, and the Booze drummer Pietro DiGennaro.
By Chad Radford	Thursday June 7, 2018 07:24 am EDT
5. The Strokes, Is This It: This record defines the course of rock 'n' roll in the early 2000s. They were a mainstream fuck-off to the boy bands and corporate crap of the time, and it made rock music popular again. Each track sounds so New York City — makes me want to be there, right now, just talking about it.
4. The Rolling Stones, Their Satanic Majesties Request: Everyone hates this record, even the Rolling Stones hate it! The multialented Brian Jones is all over these songs, not in court for drug charges like the rest of the band. Some beautifully written songs here, I promise.
3. The Kinks, Arthur: Every song is pure greatness. Recorded in 1969, it goes well with what's happening in America in today.
2. Pink Floyd, The Piper at the Gates of Dawn: The most far-out, beautiful, and psychedelic sounds from the genius Syd Barrett! This musical kaleidoscopic is a dream come true.
1. The Velvet Underground & Nico: This record is perfect! This is street music, a perfect soundtrack to city living. The sounds that explode from this album changed my life, and the way I live, forever. The album has so much control over me! R.I.P. Lou.
I would've included the Beatles in this list but I sadly find so many people in Georgia hate the Beatles for some odd reason, and it makes me sick to my stomach to hear people crap on that band. Anyways, if anyone needs me for anything I'll be over here, eating Fritos, OK?

DEATHS FOR THE LADIES: And Other Disasters.
New York: Putnam Sons, (1962). First edition, paperwraps issue, of this "run of poems, short poems, very short poems, and turns of prose." From the collection of Adeline Lubell-Naiman. INSCRIBED with an elaborate drawing "The critic pursued by a theme [large scribbled drawing spanning inside front cover and first leaf] Love / (that is to say lustility [sic] and housefection [sic] to Lucky and Adeline) / Norman." This paperwraps issue came out at the same time as the small hardback printing. Very good. Adeline Lubell-Naiman was the editor instrumental in the eventual publication of THE NAKED AND THE DEAD. In 1946, while an editor at Little, Brown, Lubell-Naiman convinced Mailer to submit the first 200 pages of THE NAKED AND THE DEAD, which she talked up to her publisher. Unfortunately, she was also the one to suggest historian and critic Bernard DeVoto read the manuscript--he recommended not publishing. But Mailer submitted it to Rinehart, who published the book in 1948. Over the years, Lubell-Naiman remained close friends with Mailer and his wives. In the summer of 1968 she even played the role of "Adeline McCarthy," a president of a women's college in Mailer's film "Maidstone" (Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center website). NICE ASSOCIATION.

When you want full, curly hair, your styling approach is an important factor. If your hair is naturally straight, thin or flat, adding a product such as mousse for volume before you curl will help give your curls big, bouncy body.... The above demo consists of a "before" and "after" image, with the only difference between the two being the color of the wall. Such images are great candidates to be stacked together and viewed in such a manner, by theatrically highlighting what's different between them.
Use the :after selector to add text after the element. Please see below for an example. If you want to add text, such as 'Click the email link at the bottom of the page for feedback,' at the end of every div, you would simply add the following in the CSS.
I restored this post because it does provide useful information that wasn't present prior, however please do use the 'flag' link under a question (you have sufficient rep for that) when you find duplicates, and let us know which question you feel is best.
Notice, that you have to use both the color and the background-color properties � the former for IE, the latter for Opera and Mozilla. Also notice, that Opera still displays 1px borders around the rectangle, so setting the height property less than 3px may not be a good idea.

My goal is to update the build status on the overview page using a service message from a build runner. I'm new to service messages and I cannot get this to work.
I've attached a file to show which status message I mean. Normally it says Success but I need to customise it.
So I have a build process that implements jetbrains.buildServer.agent.BuildProcess. I've implemented the call() method that return a BuildFinishedStatus. It works great, I can write to the log using BuildProgressLogger. However, I don't know how to set the build status message on the overview page.
That sounds like exactly what I need. It says of service messages that "In order to be processed by TeamCity they should be printed into standard output stream of the build".
...and various others but status message remains "Success" at the end of the build.
So what do I need to do to proceed? Anything on the server side as well? Anything GUI related?
The service messages are meant to be a transport between the build process and TeamCity, so you can just print the line from within the build script.
To change the build status from within a TeamCity plugin you will need another approach.
What are you trying to implement? If you are looking into reporting build failures, you might add problem instead of directly modifying the build status text.
Thanks for your reply, I'll test that approach.
The build runner is a web load tester and we'd like to show a summary message instead of just "Success", e.g. "Success: response time: 20ms, failure rate: 5%."


The bowling shirt has gotten a bad rap for a while now. Like the Hawaiian shirt, the piece has long been associated with questionable personalities—ranging from Charlie Sheen's rude and crude character from Two and a Half Men (who had a whole collection of heinous tops) to the off-kilter crew from The Big Lebowski—who've become synonymous with short-sleeved embroidered button-ups. Sleazy? Sure, a little, but at least for some of us, sleazy-chic is making a strong comeback this summer. And we're not alone! For support, look to the runways: For Valentino's Spring 2016 men's show, models trotted out in tawny retro bowling shirts printed with florals, while a sky blue bowling shirt with tigers emblazoned on the chest was a standout on Gucci's 2017 men'sCruise lookbook. On the street during New York's men's Fashion Week, the campy collector's item made multiple appearances, once in a saccharine shade of hot pink, once on Another Man's Ben Cobb, in leopard print.
And the Vogue.com office is not immune to the singular charms of the bowling shirt. Fashion News Writer Kristin Anderson has long obsessed over the the piece, saying "If I spent the number of hours I had spent trawling for great vintage bowling shirts on eBay and Etsy doing something else, I'd be a concert pianist or novelist by now." Let's say you've found your dream bowling shirt. Wondering how to style it? Feel free to throw it on in a laid-back ensemble of jeans and slides, or elevate it over a slinky slip dress; if you're feeling frisky, go all-out retro with a pair of polka-dot flares. We promise, however you choose to wear it, you're guaranteed to score.

To Mars with China? Not These Days, Says Nelson
by Irene Klotz — June 12, 2014
U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.). Credit: U.S. Navy photo
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. — U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, a Florida Democrat who parlayed a 1986 guest flight aboard the space shuttle into a leading congressional space policy role, has a bone to pick with the National Research Council (NRC) report advocating a steppingstone path to human missions to Mars.
The 286-page report, which was released June 3, urged the United States to consider adding China to the global space partnership that will be essential for a human expedition to Mars — the only goal that justifies the risk to life and tremendous cost of manned spaceflight beyond low Earth orbit, the panel said.
"Given the rapid development of China's capabilities in space, it is in the best interests of the United States to be open to its inclusion in future international partnerships," the report said.
Ideally, a human mission to Mars would include China, Nelson told SpaceNews, but, he said, "I just don't trust them at this point. … The Chinese would like to steal everything we have."
"We'll see. Things can change. I mean whoever thought we'd have the cooperation with the former Soviet Union — despite czarist Putin," Nelson added, referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin and ongoing tensions stemming from Russia's annexation of Ukraine's Crimea peninsula.
Overall, Nelson said he found the NRC report "positive" and "realistic."
"If you're going to Mars you've got to provide the money. That's a question that the American people will have to answer. In the interim, we have the building blocks to get ready for a Mars mission in the 2030s," he said.
Nelson spoke to SpaceNews on June 9 after touring a mock-up of Boeing's CST-100 capsule at a former shuttle processing hangar at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The spacecraft is one of three vehicles vying for a final round of development funds under NASA's commercial crew program.

"I can't have any children because I have no womb" – Nse Ikpe-Etim makes shocking revelation
Valerie Oke
Nollywood actress, Nse Ikpe-Etim has made a shocking revelation about her private life while speaking at an event tagged "Conversation With Nse" in Lekki.
The popular actress divulged that she wouldn't be able to bear children for the rest of her life because she has no womb (uterus).
According to her, she was diagnosed with Adenomyosis, three years ago — a condition whereby the inner lining of the uterus breaks through the muscle wall of the uterus.
She said told the audience thus:
"I was told I couldn't have kids. And so, I had to have a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) to make me have a life again and to stop going through what I was going through. And I'm literarily telling women and men, it really doesn't matter if you can't bear children. What really matters is what you would do for the world, for the universe."
How she reacted when doctors broke the news to her
"Tears dropped and then my husband squeezed my hand. It was reassuring there was someone there and it was telling me that this is a reality, my reality."
"I didn't think there was any point anymore because my society taught me that I have to be a mother to be appreciated and every time I went online, I would have one troll or two say 'you never born? But I'm thankful that that didn't break me. I'm thankful for Nollywood."

7. S & S Decorative Concrete Inc.
I've been bringing both my cars plus my motorcycle here for almost 2 years. Didn't mind paying them them the overpriced rates as they did a pretty good job. i have had mechanical experience for almost 30 years , but have become disabled and hence, can't do the work no more. Always tipped them well. i brought my truck into him over a week ago to get an alignment done, which it was, and told me i needed 2 new tires which he said he could get.I told him that i,d get the tires and then drop it back. He made me wait a week once i got the tires to bring it in to install them, which every other time , i had it in within 2 days.Went to pick up the truck to receive a $240.00 bill ??? To mount 4 tires ? CHAD was'nt happy that he did'nt make money on selling me the tires himself, so he charged me for a second alignment and completely gouged me on the mounting rates.What a crook CHAD is. Not very bright in the head either as he just lost 3 veichles to service . What a dishonest little man.
Complete garbage. The only thing you can be sure of is that if you buy a car here you'll need to use their crappy service department within a week. I've known four people who have been screwed by these guys.
I would never buy from this place again. Bought a GMC Jimmy there last Feb and told them that it had to be good as it was going to be used for work 7 days a week. Of course they said it was a good truck, etc. Within a week it was not running right. Since then it has been in the garage at least 15 times and always expensive things need replaced. We now owe 1 more payment and it is not running right again. It cost over $2000 to get it inspected this year. Unless you have a lot of money to throw away or like fixing your car all the time I wouldn't recommend this place to buy a car.
Have problems with your vehicle. This is the most honest mechanic I have ever come across with my vehicles. In the business for 40 years. Just tell them what the problem is and they will immediately know and fix it. Reasonable, not outrages charges. Glad my neighbor recommended. Ask for the owner, Dan.
Pretty cool staff, orders aftermarket parts easily, treated nicely, and good work. Had my car inspected and worked on a few times and never been dissatisfied.

Statement from American Jewish World Service (AJWS) about Yom Kippur shooting in Germany
Global Jewish Human Rights Group Denounces Hate
Robert Bank, President and CEO of American Jewish World Service (AJWS), issued this statement after the shooting outside a synagogue in Halle, Germany today:
"We mourn the lives of two people who were murdered outside a synagogue today in Halle, Germany. This deadly attack on a Jewish house of worship on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, was live-streamed by the attacker and was the product of poisonous anti-Semitism.
"This horrible act comes nearly a year after an attack by an extremist on our own soil, in Pittsburgh, and tragically it resembles an attack by a far-right extremist on two mosques in New Zealand more than six months ago, in which he broadcast his killings live on social media.
"We join with people of every background around the world to combat the increasing waves of hatred and intolerance against all people, including anti-Semitic, racist, Islamophobic, misogynistic, homophobic and transphobic violence.
"Rooted in Jewish values and the lessons of Jewish history, we join with people everywhere to build a democratic, pluralistic, respectful and diverse world anchored by human rights. We recommit ourselves on this day of reflection and atonement to healing our very broken world."
About American Jewish World Service (AJWS)
American Jewish World Service (AJWS) is the leading Jewish organization working to fight poverty and pursue justice in the developing world. By supporting hundreds of social change organizations in 19 countries, we respond to the most pressing issues of our time—from disasters, genocide and hunger, to the persecution of women and minorities worldwide.
