Who Needs The Temple Mount? — Guest Post by Ianto Watt
By Briggs on December 6, 2018 • ( 9 Comments )
Who needs that silly Temple Mount? For years, I've held that there were three things needed for the Evangelical Rapturists to get their death-wish. Death for you and me that is. Those three things are the acceptable sacrifice, the acceptable High Priest and last but certainly not least, the acceptable place of true worship. And, believe it or not, the Rapturists are on the cusp of achieving all this.
Yes, they've done everything in their power to get us to the point of no return, where the eventual occurrence of Armageddon appears, causing us to disappear, in a big mushroom cloud of hellfire. But not before the Rapturists get to use their get-out-of-jail-free card, of course. And just in time. They'll have their seats ready in the big sky-box for the Main Event. They'll even have time to go to the concession stand and load up with (all-beef) hot dogs and drinks, and have everything a good Muslim would want.
Do I equate Rapturists with Muslims? Well, yes, in a way. But for now, I'm just noticing the similarity of their respective views of the Temple Mount. Oh yeah, and Heaven too, by the way. The endless buffet and the big finale floor show. And no matter what they've done on earth, they get a free pass, because they have done the will of Allah. Which, of course, is to see to the destruction of all the kafirs. You know, the un-believers. Infidels. You and me. Well, me at least.
Why me? Because I don't associate Allah with the God of Abraham, Isaac or Jacob. Or Jesus. Maybe you do, but that's your problem. Sure, they'll let you live, if you want to convert to Islam. Or at least, pay the jizyah tax for those weak-kneed 'People of The Book'. You know, Islam for Dhimmies. People who are willing to say Abraham blessed Ishmael instead of Isaac. But it ain't me, babe.
It's funny, isn't it? You know how in Islam the end is marked by the return of Isa. Isa? You know, Jesus. Not Mohammed. Weird. You'd think Mohammed would get top billing, but no. It's Jesus, right there in the Koran. You have read the Koran, right? No? Well, you'd better get busy, because there's a test on this stuff. Islam 101. Pop quiz, coming up! Here's one of the question: Who would be willing to die before yielding possession of the Temple Mount? That's right, every devout Muslim. You'd literally have to kill them all, it seems. And who's willing to help them die? The Rapturists, of course.
The Rapturists are making headway on this idea of the slaughter of Islam. George II was brilliant, you know. Just pull out the control rod (Saddam Hussein) and watch the old reactor melt down. Sunni vs Shiite vs Kurd. Anyone who paid attention to post-Tito Yugoslavia understood the lesson to be learned. George learned it. And applied it. In order to get to the top of the Temple Mount.
Don't believe me?
You do know where George goes to Church, right? He goes to that Big Box church in San Antonio. Pastored by John Hagee. The same guy that re-bred The Red Heifer. What am I talking about? Hell, actually. Or at least a version of it. The Rapturist Armageddon version. Hell for thee, but not for me. Plenty of Americans are rapturists. And plenty of them are positioned to bring us to the brink. Highly positioned. It wasn't just George. No, it's all his buddies who still staff a lot of the Imperial war machinery.
Have you noticed the interesting nexus of power in Colorado Springs? You know, the center of American Evangelical/Pentecostal organizations, like Focus on the Family. It's also the center of our Imperial military control (Fort Carson and the big man-cave under Cheyenne Mountain). The only place with three Air Force bases, and where all American dark-ops are centered. Even the Coast Guard intercepts are directed from there.
So what? I'll tell you so what: there's a large number of American top-brass that are true believers in Evangelical/Pentecostal reverence to the modernist concept of the supposed Judeo-Christian tradition. As expressed in the dispensationalist concept of The Rapture.
Yes, a number of these Generals have been 'retired' for their views. But there's a lot of Colonels left that hold these same beliefs. I know a number of them. And Colonels are where the coups come from. Not that we're there yet, but my minor point here is about the nexus of power and faith that exists in Colorado Springs. That same power and faith can affect all of us, whether we believe like them or not. Why? Because the only true Judeo-Christian tradition is the persecution of the Church at the hands of Caesar, as advised by his Jewish lenders (and wives). Neither of these two camps is very friendly to the Original Church.
I know what you're thinking. Who says the Catholic Church is the same as the original Church? Well, let's ask Alexa. Ask her who the founder of Methodism is. Ask who founded the Lutheran Church. Guess who she'll say. Go through the whole list, from Anglican to Islam to Mormonism to Jehovah's Witnesses, and she'll tell you. She'll name the man. The modern man. Then ask her who founded the Catholic Church. See what name she speaks.
Perhaps you think I'm being unkind and that I'm all over the map, with nothing particular in mind. But you're wrong. Sure, I'm all over the place, but that's only because I'm following the tracks. Tracks laid down all across the globe, but with specific purpose. These guys aren't idiots, you know. Neither Muslims nor Rapturists (nor the Jews) are stupid. They're just insane. There's a very big difference. Very big.
Let's look at what they all want, and then you tell me if they aren't on a collision course that will involve all of us, whether we want it or not.
Let's start with my first statement. Who needs the Temple Mount? Here's where the trail leads. Those three things I mentioned above, when achieved, would constitute the necessary ingredients to re-establish Israel as a theocratic kingdom. That Kingdom would mark the end of that Rapturist concept known as Plan B (Original Christianity), by re-instating the Temple sacrifice of the Jewish nation. Sound crazy? Emperor Julian the Apostate thought well enough of the idea that he tried it once. It's not a new idea.
This new Temple, of course, would also mark the end of the secular Israeli nation. The long and the short of it is this: all 'real' Christians (as Rapturists see themselves) will, functionally speaking, become Jews. Which, of course, is the opposite of what the Original Christians thought. And which explains why George (and his Imperial descendants) wouldn't spend a nickel guarding the churches of the Chaldean and Assyrian Catholic Churches in Iraq. Yes, the oldest continuous Christian communities on earth, dating to the time of the Apostles. Now they're gone. See any tears in Washington? Any in Colorado Springs?
How do I know Rapturism is the opposite of Original Christianity? Because all the original Christians were Jews. They weren't trying to proselytize for Judaism. They left it! And they left behind a few Cliff Notes too, if you didn't know it. Like the Gospel of John. I don't know anyone who could characterize John the Apostle as wanting to remain Jewish. How Rapturists can read that gospel and still believe in the supposedly friendly 'Judeo-Christian tradition' is beyond me. Don't blame me, I didn't write that stuff.
Rapturists do believe (whether they know it or not) that God the Father was an idiot and that He wouldn't foresee that the Jews would reject His Son. And that The Father then had to substitute the Church (Plan B) for Israel for a time while He figured out how to persuade the Jews to accept His Son. From the Evangelical perspective, the solution to God the Father's dilemma is to get His Son to accept His own Judaism. Oy! Forget Jews for Jesus. It's really Jesus for Jews! Which is why the State of Israel pays for all those free summertime trips to the Holy Land for young evangelicals. It's quite effective, believe me.
Back to the hunt. In order to re-establish theocratic Israel, you need three things. We already have two of them. First, Pastor Hagee and his Texas billionaire buddies have succeeded in re-breeding The Red Heifer. The only acceptable sacrifice before Yahweh, in His Temple on Mt. Sion. No, the cow isn't really red. It's that rust-colored heifer that we all see as we drive throughout flyover country. All red. Which is to say, having not more than one black hair. See how useful all those Texas cattlemen are?
The second thing needed to re-establish theocratic Israel is an authentic High Priest. Since the census rolls were lost when the Temple burned in 70 AD, we can't know for certain who's a Levite and who's not. Because, after all, only a Levite can be a priest. But we do have a clue: we can probably bet whoever gets picked will be named Kohan. Or Kohen. Or Cohen. It sure won't be Korah. On second thought, maybe it will. In any event, Kohen is a safe bet. A direct descendant of Aaron, the brother of Moses and the first High Priest. The guy who built the Golden Calf. That's what happens when you leave older brothers in charge, Moses.
Which Kohen to pick? No problemo, Señor. We'll just ask the Sanhedrin which Kohen is kosher. But wait: wasn't the Sanhedrin, the priestly council that ruled Israel, destroyed in 70 AD as well? Well, yes. But in 2004 it was re-established, although there is much controversy about its legitimacy. Which is par for the course on any subject in today's Israel. Check it out: here's Rabbi Baruch Kahane, the new Kohen Gadol (High Priest) of Israel. He's ready to re-institute the Temple sacrifice on one week's notice. Assuming, of course, that the way is clear to the Temple Mount.
Which brings us to the real point. If you want a theocratic Israel (and every Orthodox Jew and Evangelical Rapturist does), you gotta have The Temple Mount to make this thing work. Red heifer? Got it. High priest? Done. Temple mount? Sorry, schmuck, it's still occupied. By those guys over there, who are busy reading their Daily Quran. They aren't quite ready to leave. At least, not without a fight. That, of course, was the whole point of George's Gulf Wars. Let's get these crazy Muslims to kill one another, and then the way will be clear to ascend the Temple Mount and set up a new Tabernacle Tent while the Third Temple Construction Company gets to work on the final version of Mosaic worship. As directed by Talmudic Productions, Inc. Which is to say, get lost, Moses. We're fine with Aaron. Got any gold you'd like to sell?
The best part of this crazy plan is how secular Jerusalem got stupid Uncle Sam to be the guy that wandered into the reactor room to pull the control rods out of the core. Nice bit of work there, buddy! Nice tan you got there! Oh wait, maybe that's radiation burns. But, hey, no problem, right? After all, it was suffered in the name of the Judeo-Christian tradition, right? I'm sure you'll be rewarded, big-time. Chump.
There was always a problem with the plan. The problem with this Hollywood production isn't with the script, which is working out just fine. The problem in Hollywood, as always, is in the big-name actors. Specifically, their impatience. They just can't wait out those decades that will be needed for all those Muslims to kill one another. Maybe we should have let the Iranians have the bomb, eh Sollie? Maybe we should just sell them some, instead of waiting for them to figure out the recipe on their own?
Anyway, the wait is killing these Sabras. Such a crime it was that Ariel Sharon never got to see Eretz Israel, and the final Temple! Oy vey, can't we hurry this thing up? Can't we just nuke all the Muslims and be done with them? Actually, no, Bubby. Because there are some folks who might nuke you back. Starting with Pakistan, and its Islamic Bomb. No need to worry, we think we have a solution!
What solution is that? The whole point of this 'Judeo-Christian' Plan-B-sponsored Islam-on-Islam civil war is to get unhindered access to the Temple Mount, correct? If that's all you want, the answer is so simple. Move the goal posts.
That's exactly what will happen. Just because the Dome of The Rock is atop the Western (Wailing) Wall doesn't mean that is where the ancient sacrifice was performed. It simply means that The Rock was moved. Which it was, as everyone agrees. From where? From the original site, of course. Six hundred feet, more or less, from the actual location of the First (and Second) Temple.
That's what I'm saying. The Wailing Wall and the Temple Mount above it are not the site of the Jewish Temples of Solomon and Herod. It's actually the site of the Roman Legion's base of operations in Jerusalem at the time of Christ. The current 'temple mount' is an approximately forty acre site once properly known as the Antonia Fortress, where the Imperial Roman Tenth Legion was stationed. The land area known today as the Temple Mount is the same size as most other Roman fortresses throughout the Empire. You can't fit 6,000-plus men into some silly little tower that today's 'scholars' tell they did. You need those forty acres. All of it.
This fortress, Josephus the Jewish eyewitness told us, was connected to the real Jewish Temple Mount by two 600 ft. sky-bridges that allowed the Romans to pour their 6,000 men into the Temple precinct at a moment's notice, whenever the Jews got feisty. Which was quite often. Which was Pilate's worst headache. Ask Jesus, he can tell you. And Josephus too.
Don't believe me? Check it out, here and here and here. There's lots more if you want.
The point is so simple, and so sweet. The Muslims got the departure point wrong. If Mohammed did actually ascend into Heaven on that cool steed, he didn't do it from the spot atop the Western Wall. Or else he's a fraud. Or both. Now everything gets simpler.
If the actual site of Solomon and Herod's Temples was 600 ft. to the south of the spot everyone currently calls the Temple Mount, then we don't need to clear out the Dome of the Rock or the El Aqsa Mosque to rebuild the Third Temple. Right? And we don't need to wait another forty years for this Muslim Civil War to effectively kill off all the Muslims. Correct? And we don't need to worry about Pakistan and her Islamic Bomb? Or Iran? Yep.
Let the Muslims keep that stupid Roman fort. The fort that is always shown as some little adjunct tower to the traditional renderings of the Temple that somehow housed the 6,000 men of the Tenth Legion (which, with support personnel, totaled almost 10,000 men). Check that red circle in the picture at the beginning of this article. You can't fit 10,000 men into that thing. I love modern 'scholarship', don't you?
Now, all of the sudden, the Orthodox Jews may not need all those pesky American Plan-B Evangelicals to clear the Muslims (who are Plan-B Jews, if you really study the Koran) from that faux Temple Mount after all. All they may really need to re-establish theocratic Israel is a real smart real-estate guy. Somebody with deep pockets that can quietly buy up the ground south of the currently-supposed Temple Mount. Down there in what used to be called The City of David. What irony. Why wouldn't Solomon have built the Temple in his father's fortress? Right where Fr. Meagher would have told us it would be.
Who might that real-estate mogul be that is needed to speed up this process of re-establishing the animal sacrifice of the Jews, without exterminating all the Muslims? At least, not the Saudi's? Somebody who knows his way around Jerusalem, for sure. Maybe somebody with a Jewish son-in-law? Maybe. Certainly, somebody who knows how to make a deal, don't you think? And the chutzpah to do it. Just think, what if it led to a Middle East peace plan that satisfied Muslims and Jews alike? Wouldn't that be a real interesting lead-in to the 2020 elections?
Who would be left out of this happy thought? The Rapturists, I'm afraid. Too bad. After all, what is the one thing Original Christians and Jews could agree on, if not that Jerusalem (and perhaps the rest of the world) needn't be toasted by a premature Armageddon? Sure, it's gonna come, sometime. But we don't need to attempt to force His hand. He'll do it when He's good and ready. Not a moment before. Not a moment after. Let's leave it to Him, eh? And, in the meantime, maybe we could have a little peace in the Mid-East. Such a nice thought! That is a real Judeo-Christian tradition I could live with. How about you?

"The source is not always reliable"
I couldn't help but chuckle, remembering Briggs' frequent, credulous retweeting of Kremlin fake news, before he deleted his Twitter account and started over.
WATT NOTES: "If you want a theocratic Israel (and every Orthodox Jew and Evangelical Rapturist does), you gotta have The Temple Mount to make this thing work. Red heifer? Got it. High priest? Done." […but no Temple Mount…]
The Supreme Deity that made the whole universe out of nothing … to purify His Chosen People … needs a red cow (of which He's capable of making in infinite supply) at a particular rock.
A red cow by a particular rock for the Supreme Deity … like the milk and cookies by the decorated tree for Santa Claus.
The purported goal is moral purity, but the requirement mandates key moral leaders focus considerable effort on breeding livestock with good hair! (see: https://dilbert.com/strip/1992-08-27)
Most people playfully believe [i.e., not really believe] four-leaf-clover brings good luck.
But a population truly believes a red cow with good hair will save the world.
One thing history informs is that when the livestock-with-perfect-red-hair doesn't change anything the rationalizations will be immediate and fully accepted … and … for the failure the belief will be even stronger.
John Watkins says:
Well, I could have predicted both Ken and Lee's responses, but that wouldn't qualify anyone as a genius. As usual, they miss the blindingly obvious point of Judaism (and it's relationship to Christianity, which rightfully superseded it). So let me explain to you two what everyone else already knows; God allowed the Jews to act like everyone else in the pagan world, for the point of showing them how stupid that would be.
You want a human king? Here, take Saul. You want malleable doctrine and practice? Here, have Aaron and his gold cow for a High Priest. You want to worship Me with sacrifice? Sure, offer me a cow. Or a sheep. Or whatever.
And when, after hundreds of years of the futility of these kinds of things (which mirrored pagan life), God offers His Son as a King and as an acceptable sacrifice to Himself. A sacrifice that wouldn't be called off at the last minute (like Isaac), nor a King who would go insane with idols (Ahab), women (Solomon) or taxes (Rehoboam). Nope. And this is why so much of the world (beginning with the Jews) saw the beauty of this pure expression of true Divinity. And the fruit of it (science, charity, education, and most importantly, mercy and true worship) is evident everyday, to anyone with eyes. Which, sadly, does not include Lee and Ken. Or Mohammed, by the way.
Don't bother blathering about the evils committed by errant members of the Church, guys. We all know they happened. And we all know their acts were done in spite of, and not because of, the actual purpose and intent, of God and his Holy Church. Not that you care. But go ahead, go for it. We know you will!
John Watkins, if I had any sense I would bypass those two paragons of idiotic pride. Thank you for the pithy demolition so deftly done. Sadly your conclusions will prove to be right as they haven't the sense to know they have been cut off at the knees.
Ianto Watt, thank you once again for cutting down the forest.

Peter Aiello says:
The Catholic Church also believes in the rapture; but the Church is amillennial in the sense that it does not occur before a millennium, but at the end of the world. John does speak of the millennium in the book of Revelation (20:4-5). I don't know how you explain it away.
If there is a millennium, Christ will rule from Jerusalem instead of Vatican City. He will be the unelected Pope. Maybe this is why the Church prefers that there is no millennium. As of now, relations between the pope and Israel are not very cordial. If they don't improve with the future Jerusalem Pope, it could get ugly.
All real Christians are already Jews (Romans 2:28-29). They will not have to become Jews when they return to the world with Christ after they have been raptured.
Christ will ultimately determine what the theocracy will look like. The theocracy will not be the Judaism or Christianity of today. Regardless of what Israel is today, and as messy as it looks right now, this is just the beginning. It has to start someway. No one said it would be perfect.

Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness and the reality is that everyone is at risk. The sad truth is that there is no known cure for glaucoma and the vision loss it causes is permanent. While it is more prevalent in older adults, 1 in 10,000 babies in the U.S. are born with glaucoma. In most cases, it doesn't have any symptoms in its early stages, so there is virtually no warning until the condition is advanced and vision loss is significant.
Until recently, the cause of glaucoma remained unknown. However, a recent study by the researchers at MIT and Massachusetts Eye and Ear has uncovered some answers that could affect the way the condition is treated and the effects it can have on the eyes.
Researchers found the vision loss glaucoma patients experience may actually be their immune system responding to bacteria exposure. This bacteria causes pressure in the eye to increase while triggering heat shock proteins that function as a stress response. In turn, these heat shock proteins are detected by memory T cells which identify the retinal neurons as foreign bodies. They then launch an immune system attack.
Although there is currently no known cure for glaucoma, this new discovery has opened the door for more precise treatment options and perhaps, potentially a cure in due time. By addressing the eye's immune response to glaucoma, there is potential for eliminating the disease. Researchers are cautiously optimistic as they pursue better treatment options based on these new findings – and they continue to work toward a cure.
Glaucoma is a debilitating disease, but it can be prevented. There are treatments options available that prevent glaucoma from getting worse and resulting in continued loss of sight. That's why it is so important to see your eye doctor for regular eye exams. The earlier you catch glaucoma, the better your chances are to stop it from progressing and save your vision. Call Florida Eye Specialists today to schedule an exam at one of our seven Jacksonville locations and be proactive about your eye health.

Blackjack comes in one of the favorite Jackpot City casino games. There are old handbooks calling the Blackjack "Vingt-et-Une? which stands for 21 in French. Though there are debates about it, Blackjack is often referred to as 21 in several European countries.

A version of this article appeared in the print edition of The Daily Star on December 09, 2017, on page 11.
The top U.S. intelligence official has ordered tighter restrictions on how the names of Americans kept secret in intelligence reports can be revealed during presidential transitions, documents seen by Reuters indicated.
In a Nov. 30 letter sent to Representative Devin Nunes, Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and other top lawmakers, the Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats said the new unmasking policy was due by Jan. 15 .
Nunes was among the first to charge that U.S. intelligence agencies collected information on Americans involved in Trump's transition team.
For unmasking requests made between a U.S. presidential election and Inauguration Day, the draft presidential order states, the request now would have to say whether the official making it believed or knew it involved a member of the president-elect's transition team.
A request also would have to be approved by the top lawyer of the U.S. intelligence agency that disseminated the original intelligence report.

NORTH Wales Fire and Rescue Service's chief fire officer, Simon Smith, has paid tribute to a colleague who has died after a long illness.
Peter Lennard, pictured, who had more than 30 years of service in North East Wales, started his career at Wrexham in July 1975 as a fire-fighter and was promoted to leading firefighter in 1981.
In 1986, he was made sub officer in charge of a watch at Deeside Fire Station.
Following a further promotion, to the rank of station officer, he was based at Wrexham Fire Station in 1990.
He then moved to Divisional Headquarters at Wrexham as station officer and gained a further promotion to assistant divisional officer, a role he took up in 1997.
In October 2004 he was appointed operations support manager based at headquarters in Rhyl.
Bill Murphy, senior operations manager, worked with Peter at both Wrexham and Rhyl.
'Peter always immediately impressed you with his energy, enthusiasm and attitude that if a job was worth doing it was worth doing well,' he said.
'To me, that epitomised his approach to his work and the people around him.

UP the largest producer of research in SA – Kupe
By Edwin Naidu Dec 3, 2021
Edwin Naidu
According to the vice-chancellor Professor Tawana Kupe, the University of Pretoria, which is the largest producer of research in South Africa, has no intention of resting on its well-recognised laurels.
"We apply this research and knowledge to uplift society and make a difference in people's lives locally and globally," said Kupe at a media briefing on campus.
Kupe said most lecturers at UP were experts with PhDs, which meant they produced knowledge that helped provide a high-quality education to students.
One of the many projects on the go, he said, was the African-Global University Project (AGUP) which ensures that partnerships and collaborations played their intended role.
"We are achieving UP`s strategic goals and targets."
To this end, Kupe said between 20 to 30 universities would become core partner universities – specifically as they relate to the African context.
AGUP, therefore, would capitalize on UP's distinctive strengths and competitive advantages:
Recognised high-quality academic and professional staff.
Research-oriented academic programmes.
Being the largest contact university in South Africa.
Long-standing and fruitful partnerships with globally significant institutions.
Focused alignment with UP's 4 Transdisciplinary Research Platforms and other.
Multidisciplinary entities in the faculties.
Already, he said 468 universities from Africa were collaborating institutions, while 6 254 academics have co-authored publications.
Collaboration also extends to North America with 862 collaborating institutions and 2 793
co-authored publications; South America has 272 collaborating institutions and 455 co-authored publications.
Europe has 1 683 collaborating institutions, and 4 351 academics have co-authored publications, while the Asia Pacific has 1 184 collaborating institutions with 2 365 co-authoring publications.
Despite the formidable international links, Kupe alluded to several critical priorities related to impactful research with spin-offs on a domestic level.
UP is a leader in malaria research; for example, under Professor Lyn-Marie Birkholtz and her team, they have discovered new potent chemical compounds that show potential as candidates for both the treatment and elimination of malaria.
To tackle a disease having a profound effect on society, UP has established the Centre for Diabetes Research, which works across faculties to develop research that aims to improve the lives of people living with diabetes.
Not content with addressing health imperatives, Kupe said the university was mindful of the transport challenges.
Hence it's intelligent transport through Engineering 4.0, which focuses on developing integrated transportation and infrastructure systems, reducing energy consumption levels in the vehicle, maximising productivity in industry, and creating a higher quality of life for people.
Inevitably, given the country's challenges around energy, he said UP was determined to make an impact on clean energy and hopes to support the government in ending the country's reliance on coal.
Kupe said the university invested R100 million in online learning before many institutions went digital due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
He said UP had to raise funds for this to ensure that no students were left behind.
However, asked whether fees would become cheaper as universities adopt a hybrid teaching model, Kupe said costs in providing education remain, regardless of the model.
He did not see a reduction – just yet.

Common household items that may be overlooked when taking out the trash.
Depending on your area's recycling requirements, there are still plenty of small household items can fall by the wayside due to sheer convenience. Aluminum products, milk bottle tops, barbecue and freezing trays, plastic foil and other small items are usually cast into the trash without a second thought. However, by giving every product in your home that's not biodegradable a second thought, you can do your part to limit the amount of unnecessary waste heading to local landfills.
Of course, you should always check and see what your area's recycling protocol is, but in most single-stream recycling programs, these items are better off in your recycling bin than your trash can. Aluminum products are at the top of the list of common household items that take a bit of extra effort, but belong in a separate receptacle. Whether you're using the product to grill or wrap up your kid's sandwiches, rinsing it off and throwing it into your recycling bin will help remove plenty of needless waste from the environment.
Plastic products are always safe choices for recycling, but it's the overlooked items that tend to build up quickly. Plastic wrapping on the outside of food products, consumer products and even small plastic bottle caps are items that are thoughtlessly placed in the trash. Additionally, paper products, such as envelopes, can be placed in the same stack as your newspapers or magazines or placed directly into a recycling bin.
By thinking twice each time you throw something in the garbage, you can practice sustainability and a green lifestyle every day. With a bit of extra effort, you can decrease your waste levels and reduce your impact on the environment.

30.000+ Facebook Fans, thank you for showing some support!
Welcome to the new Change Games Blog from Leipzig. Here we will write about new and old game developments, game or game events so like eSport shows, etc.
Interesting report about Syria's war! Check my profile Oliver Gediminas Caplikas for more in-depth information. There are many ways to stop this madness, like neutral or passive defence of the borders, peaceful communication on all ways, diplomacy offers, a big bonus for the first parties which stop their attacks!
Think about bombers dropping survival packages, information with instructions, offers or solutions for each side to end the conflicts!
Another idea by me, buy them a Playstation or Notebook with Battlefield, Call of Duty or other war games and start competitions, the winners get prices similar like in the real war. But ok, this would be maybe a solution to prevent wars before they start.

Q: My website is responsive everywhere BUT when resizing browser window I don't know why but both in dev tools and on mobile device my website is responsive, however when I resize the browser window it doesn't hit the breakpoint, and the portfolio grid doesn't switch from 3 columns to 1. This is an issue for me because it is my portfolio site I'll be sending to employers and I know they like to resize the window to check for responsiveness. Thank you in advance for advice.

7 Predictions for the Gig Economy in 2020
by Marilyn K
What's the future of the gig economy? Depending upon whom you ask, it's either lemons or lemonade. Either way, it's fair to anticipate that freelancing and contract work will continue to provide a large percentage of American jobs in the next decade. This type of employment has also impacted both thriving and struggling economies all over the world.
As with all disruptive economic forces, it's also easy to predict that stakeholders in the gig economy will continue to explore opportunities and wrestle with pitfalls during 2020 and beyond. People with a strong interest in the gig economy will include freelancers, businesses, and of course, lawmakers.
Seven Gig Economy Forecasts for 2020
If you're concerned about the future of freelancing, take a few moments to explore seven predictions for the gig economy in 2020 and beyond.
1. Gig Economy Growth
Not so long ago, people struggled to find the sort of flexible opportunities that freelancing offers. Recently, CNBC reported that the gig economy employed just about one out of three American workers in 2019. These 57 million freelancers represent an increase of about 3 million workers since 2016. While some people freelance to supplement their main income, others rely upon freelancing as their sole source of support.
It's interesting to note that NASDAQ predicted a larger increase, up to 43 percent of the workforce by 2020, in their 2016 report. It's fair to anticipate continued growth in the gig economy; however, increases may not meet forecasts from a few years ago. Obviously, this kind of employment doesn't suit every worker or fit every position. Also, the legal status of freelancers still needs clarification, and these regulatory issues may have slowed down growth.
2. Gig Economy Startup Opportunities
A few notable gig economy startups from the past include Uber, 99Designs, and of course, WriterAccess. These companies focus upon serving as intermediaries between freelancers and businesses or people who need services. These kinds of services will probably continue to emerge to serve other industries.
Financial Times believes that a new class of startups will find opportunities in serving the needs of workers and the entities that hire them. For instance, they may offer such important services as negotiated benefits packages. These kinds of services may grow in the future if the federal and state governments choose to classify gig workers differently. Other opportunities for services could include shared workspaces and online apps and tools to manage projects.
3. Legal Issue Clarification
Issues involving the classification of gig workers has provided one recent impediment to the growth of the gig economy. For example, some freelancing companies dropped their California talent because of concerns over the implementation of the new state law, AB5. Certainly, freelancers from California and all over the country have justified concerns at this time.
Still, an LA Times analysis says the new law did not directly cause these terminations; instead, it was the way some companies chose to interpret it. It might also be unfair to ignore a few bad actors that prompted this legislation. In any case, it's past the time for more discussion about the issues that generated these new rules and may prompt other states or even the federal government to get involved in the future.
Mostly, it may be time to modernize the way employers and the law classify workers to keep up with a changing economy. Organizations such as The Hamilton Project have proposed a new worker class to more clearly define gig workers and their relationship with companies.
4. More Competition for Traditional Employers
As the gig economy has boomed into a larger piece of the employment landscape, some traditionally employed workers have found the flexibility attractive enough to prompt them to consider switching. Parents, family caretakers, and plenty of others have started to understand the benefits of having more control over their schedules and their employers. While freelancers sacrifice benefits and in some cases, job security, they gain the ability to set their own hours. Just as important for many, they can choose who to accept work from.
Because of this, traditional employers have expressed concerns over employee loyalty. Forbes has predicted that businesses will increasingly respond by offering more non-traditional working arrangements, scheduling alternatives, and control over career tracks. At the same time as employers and lawmakers debate the definition of employees vs. freelancers, some traditional jobs may start to look more like freelancing.
5. Preparation From Schools for the Gig Economy
Contract and temporary jobs have always served people as a way to gain experience and get their foot inside a corporate door. As the gig economy continues to expand, Harvard Business Review made the case that colleges should note the change and do a better job of preparing students for alternative routes to their chosen career fields. These days, the gig economy provides businesses with more than creative talent, including human resources, accounting, software, engineering, and even executive officers.
Even if working inside the gig economy isn't the first choice for some students, it's better for them to view these opportunities with an open mind and know how to hit the ground running. Particularly in competitive fields, freelancing experience can help a traditional job seeker stand out much more than one with no on-the-job experience at all. In addition, some freelancers will discover that a freelancing careers suits them better than traditional employment. Freelancing can also give recent graduates a chance to try their hand at various opportunities in order to learn what they want or don't want out of their careers.
6. The Rise of Alumni Labor Clouds
In contrast to freelancing as an option for recent graduates, it's important to note that almost 10,000 people from the baby boomer generation retire each day, taking all of their years of experience with them. This brain drain has occurred simultaneously with a skill shortage in a variety of fields. In response, some corporations have worked to entice their alumni retirees into joining internal labor platforms. Other companies have banded together with similar organizations to pool these valuable resources, so they can constantly draw upon an in-demand labor force for all levels of work.
Retirees who join these skilled labor pools can have a chance to earn extra retirement income and enjoy more flexibility than they did as traditional employees. Right now, both younger and older workers account for the most growth in the gig economy.
Because of retirement freelancing opportunities and other circumstances, Glassdoor predicted that boomers may actually become the fastest growing segment of the workforce once again. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that 20 percent of over-65 Americans were either employed or seeking employment, and this represents an increase from 12 percent two decades ago. In addition, surveys suggest that older workers do not diminish opportunities for younger workers and contrary to some popular opinions, are still able and eager to learn from their younger associates and bosses.
7. The Gig Economy Will Go Global
So far, these predictions have centered mostly upon the United States. The gig economy has taken off slower in some other regions but has begun to change economies all over the world. The World Bank blog mentioned some examples of gig platforms that have helped connect people in less developed countries to both skilled and less-skilled jobs, giving them a path out of poverty.
Today, the US, UK, Canada, and Australia originate the most gig jobs and provide many of the world's freelance workers. At the same time, gig workers also commonly come from such countries as India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and the Philippines. In more developed countries, freelancing may offer skilled people a chance to work flexibly or earn extra money. In some less-developed economies, it can also provide a way to rise out of poverty. For example, the World Bank article noted that refugee women in Jordan have begun to sell home-cooked meals through a food-delivery platform. In South Africa, thousands of people have found work through a domestic-services website.
As the gig economy has expanded, other countries also have concerns about social protections and regulatory compliance. Major concerns include tax reporting, health insurance, unemployment benefits, and fair wages. Some of this will come from the market, which underscores potential opportunities that may come out of challenges. For example, small businesses and freelancers in China can get health insurance by using AliPay, a payment platform from the nation's largest fintech company.
What's the Future Impact of the Gig Economy?
As we noted in a previous post, the gig economy actually has a long history. Jazz musicians coined the term to define their typical kind of work engagements. The sudden boom in popularity has increased attention from all sorts of workers, a variety of businesses, and even the government.
Maybe partially because of recent debates about classifying workers, freelancing hasn't quite continued to grow at the same rate as predictions suggested a few years ago. Still, the benefits of freelancing to workers and businesses are impossible to ignore. Freelancing offers a 21st Century solution for flexibility, productivity, and scalability. The gig economy will probably continue to provide a large part of the overall economy and increase in size nationally and globally.

Star Trek icon George Takei has given a wide-rangng interview to Metro Weekly in which he takes a dig at former co-star William Shatner's autograph policy, reflects on new Star Trek movies and TV shows, whitewashing Asian characters, and living through the internment of Japanese-Americans in the 1940s.
MW: As somebody who lived through a period of internment in the '40s, does the current zero tolerance immigration policy feel like a cycle is repeating itself, or does this seem like some new digression from the values that we know?
TAKEI: It is a new low. At least in our time, in the '40s, families were intact. I was five years old when we were taken away. The thought of being separated from my parents never occurred. We were all together as a family. And now, not only is that irrationality and cruelty being repeated, but it's reaching a new low with children being torn away from their parents, usually from their mothers. Not only kept in that area where they were torn away, the evil in this is scattering them all across the country, and so incompetently that they can't find the parents and the children to match, to bring them back together. This is a new low, a new depth that we've gone to because of this fake president.
And the irrationality of this is during the George W. Bush administration, we had asylum seekers and immigrants coming from Latin America at the rate of over 80,000 a month. During the Obama administration, that was cut over half, about 35,000 a month during Obama. And now, it's something like 25,000 people seeking asylum here every month. This tragedy that's going on at the southern border is fabricated by this fake president. And his constant repetition of words like drug dealers, murderers, rapists, is the same broad brush that painted us in the '40s as inscrutable and treacherous and untrustworthy. That was absolutely untrue. There was no case of treachery or spying or sabotage or suspicious activities by Japanese-Americans, in retrospect. But that was the broad brush that painted us then and the same broad brush is being painted by this fake president characterizing the people coming here as rapists, drug dealers and murderers.

With common types of mixers having stirrers with high peripheral speeds ,which give good circulation and high shear. Dense nitrocellulose will dissolve quickly and no special technique is necessary.
Place the active component of the solvent mixture in the mixer and start the stirrer. If there is insufficient active solvent add some of the diluents but use as little diluents as possible because it is important to start with the strongest possible active solvent mixture. If it is not possible to separate the active solvent form the diluents use only as much of the total solvent mixture as is necessary to form a suspension of the grains for the initial mixing and add the remainder as required to complete the solution.
Slowly add the nitrocellulose through a hopper in a continuous flow.DO NOT add in lumps or handfuls and make sure that any aggregates are broken down before addition. Continue stirring until the grains begin to gel and the solution thickens.
Increase the power as the solution thickens to maintain as high a shear rate as possible.
When the stirrer begins to labour add the plasticiser and, if necessary, small increments of the diluents keeping the solution as viscous as possible and maintaining a high shear rate. During the process, stop the stirrer and scrape down from the sides and blades any grains of nitrocellulose which are not being properly incorporated in the mix.
When the solution appears to be complete add the remaining diluents slowly and continuously. Finally add the resin (in solution) and any pigment base and continue stirring until uniformly mixed.
Specks of dust, hairs or other impurities which may be introduced from the packing or the raw materials should be removed by filtering.
When two grades of Nitrocellulose with different viscosities are used in one formulation, it is preferable to dissolve each separately and then mix the two solutions. This is also a useful method for blending two grades of nitrocellulose to obtain the required viscosity. If it is not possible to make two separate solutions the higher viscosity nitrocellulose should be dissolved first.

Q: Microsoft packages revoscalepy and microsoftml source code Does anybody know how to find the source code for Microsoft packages for R/Python called revoscalepy and microsoftml (also azure-machine-learning-sdk would be great). These packages contain implementation of different machine learning algos and could be installed by SQL Server installer. Model serialized by revoscalepy could be used directly in SQL script.
Packages seem to be proprietary, but the documentation is confusing because parameters in different methods are not used, algorithms versions are not known definetely. Moreover, results differ too much with well-known scikit-learn library.
