‘Taste Culture’: Arriving in Vienna
June 2, 2012
On arriving into Vienna some 27 hours since leaving Tullamarine we found the CAT train which whizzed us in ultra-smooth and very quick fashion. There was time for a swift check-in, shower and email download before it was time to meet in the hotel bar with the rest of the visiting Australian contingent. After a well appreciated local beer we set off on what was a delightful 30 minute walk across central Vienna, though a thriving with tourism Stephansplatz square and on to our spot…

Awards and Updates
2015 Equal Voice Journalism Fellowship - awarded by New America Media
The Equal Voice Fellowship from New America Media is funded by the Marguerite Casey Foundation. In 2015, sixty journalists nationwide competed this year for six journalism grants to support at least one or a series of investigative and exploratory reporting projects on critical poverty issues in underserved communities.
The fellowship provides the journalists from ethnic and mainstream media with an opportunity to deepen their understanding of critical issues of poverty in communities that they serve and to increase the public’s understanding of poverty in the United States.
For the fellowship I am working with Plus magazine to examine the intersections between poverty, race, sexual orientation, gender identity and HIV. My investigative series will focus on the criminalization of HIV, the role incarceration plays in HIV transmission, the link between depression and HIV, and trans women with HIV.

Project: Governor Brown signs landmark HIV education bill
In an effort to reduce HIV rates in the state, Governor Brown signed into law a bill that requires those who receive an HIV test with negative results are informed about prevention options like PrEP, the one-a-day pill that's up to 99% effective in preventing HIV.
Lesson: With HIV, the data isn’t as reliable as you think it is
After living there for over a decade, I know San Francisco is uniquely situated when it comes to HIV and AIDS. But I wondered, How are other counties in California fairing in their prevention efforts? |
824 | I became a mostly vegetarian--I choose not to eat meat, but I am willing to do so--one morning a year or two ago, when I woke up and decided, simply and without a lot of qualifications, not to eat meat. I walked downstairs and, over coffee, told my wife: I'm not eating meat any longer. And that was that.
Though I wasn't particularly aware of this question turning in my head, it must have been doing so for some time.
Pressed every once and a while (I'm not the sort of person people press often) to explain why I don't eat meat, I usually respond:
1. We don't need to eat meat.
"One farmer says to me, "You cannot live on vegetable food solely, for it furnishes nothing to make bones with"; and so he religiously devotes a part of his day to supplying his system with the raw material of bones; walking all the while he talks behind his oxen, which, with vegetable-made bones, jerk him and his lumbering plow along in spite of every obstacle. Some things are really necessaries of life in some circles, the most helpless and diseased, which in others are luxuries merely, and in others still are entirely unknown. "
2. In any case, we American eat far too much of it. (The average American eat nearly half a pound of meat a day!)
3. It is deleterious of our health; of this there can simply be no doubt. I distrust all of modern nutrition, but I can point to the indubitable fact that every culture that has gone from eating a vegetable, grain, oil and fish diet to a diet that resembles our own American "diet" has grown steadily less healthy, more obese, and stupider.
4. Furthermore, you can have a varied--even more interesting--diet without meat."
In fact, I really like meat. You name it, I like it. Even offal and liver and sweetmeats. Beef. Chicken. Birds of all sorts. Horses (yes). Lamb. Wild beast. Pork. I used to eat--and occasionally, I still do--all of this with quite a lot of relish. And sometimes ketchup.
Notice that I have no compunctions about eating meat on the usual moral grounds. I like animals well enough, but I don't think they have souls and I have no guilt issues involved in their slaughter, so long as it is done well and as painlessly as possible. (That said, I don't like the idea of anything suffering needlessly, and so in particular I avoid meat the provenance of which I do not know.) In fact, if you know my story, you'll know that I have slaughtered plenty of animals, and I don't feel any guilt whatsoever.
I am an avid fisherman and really love to eat any fish. That said, I mostly only eat the fish that I catch. Our seas have been roundly abused, and I want as little part in it as possible. Moreover, I will not eat frozen fish of any kind, nor farmed fish--they taste like shit, and life is too short to eat shit. (I will eat frozen squid!) I am fortunate to live in Florida, a state that has some of the best, most progressive, laws around regarding commercial fishing. I only eat locally sourced fish that I know is taken from grounds that are not overfished. (Like I said, I don't eat much fish!) I imagine if I did not live in Florida, I would not eat fish at all.
In the end, for me the most compelling reason not to eat meat, or to eat much less of it, is the incredible waste involved. If you do any reading, you will be astonished by the amount of water, grain, labor, oil, fertilizer, concrete, wood, wire, electricity, herbicides, pesticides, antibiotics, legislation, oversight and carbon dioxide involved in manufacturing (and that's the correct word) a pound of meat.
Four-hundred gallons of water, lord knows how much fossil fuel (but lots of it), seven pounds of corn and all the concomitant fertilizer/herbicide/pesticide... to produce a pound of beef, much of which goes into eating that shitty shit people wolf down in fast-food restaurant. Shameful.
And then you have to deal with the enormous impact of fantastic amounts of shit. A hundred-fifty pounds of shit A DAY for a cow!
(Many will rightly point out that grass-fed, pastured cattle are far less resource-intensive, which is true. But the amount of "free-range" beef produced out there is a fraction of what's consumed.)
Yes, resources are used to produce a pound of vegetables and grain, but a small fraction compared to meat of any sort. And a pound of veg and grain is far tastier and more varied than your chunk of beef, and probably lots cheaper. (I try not to think of food as nutrition (for reasons too complex to explain here), but, there can be no doubt, that pile of veg, fruit and grain is of far greater healthfulness than the beef.)
The world is getting smaller, flatter, hotter, drier, more unpredictable.
Choosing not to eat meat makes sense.
Plus, I have a kick-ass garden.

Food security...
A thoughtful video from Japan. Their situation isn't terribly different from our own, with the important caveats that 1) they deal with far less arable land per person than in the USA; and 2) they have traditional food-ways to fall back upon.
I'm not an adamant vegetarian, but I am very careful to limit the animal flesh that I eat. One of the many reasons that I have chosen this diet is that eating meat is prodigiously wasteful.

Determinant tomatoes...
While I'm recommending seeds, I'll add Bella Rosa determinant tomato (TGS) to the list... Produced over a long time. For indeterminant, full-sized, the prizes go to Cabernet and Tiffany. Both of these are "hot house" tomatoes... Solid, medium-sized, good disease resistance. You can keep your open-pollinated "heirloom" tomatoes... I'll go with vigor, taste and disease-resistance any day. (OK, if you want an heirloom that does well in FLA, that would be Goose Creek, a southern tomato with good resistance and vigor...)
added...TGS=Tomato Growers Supply.

Okra...
And, while I'm on the subject of seeds, Burgundy Okra from ECHO. I let the pods get to nine inches and they were still tender.
Added.... Ooops... I think I got the Burgundy Okra from Southern Exposure... Anyway, it's a fairly common variety. I like it because 1) it's a REALLY beautiful plant; 2) no spines! no toughness! no goo!

Peppers...
A strong recommendation for California Wonder Fat and Sassy (oops!) bell peppers (TGS carries them). Even at the height of the doldrums in in Central FLA, this pepper is setting tons of new fruit and ripening thick-walled, squarish but otherwise classic bells. First time I've ever had luck with traditional bells. So far the only drawback is that it's such a heavy producer that I've had several plants break from the weight of the fruit during heavy rains.
This one gets added to the short list of sweet peppers I grow that includes Trinidad seasoning pepper and Sweet Spot X3R (and plenty of open-pollinated hot peppers)...
Sweet Spot X3R Hybrid #9660 (30 seeds) $3.35 Click Here for Large Quantity Pricing.
This high-yielding banana type pepper produces an incredible harvest of mild, sweet peppers about 8 in. long and 2 in. wide with much better size and thicker walls than open-pollinated banana types. Peppers may be enjoyed at any color stage-yellow, orange, or bright red. Tall plants resist 3 races of Bacterial Spot. 70 days. (More Sweet Peppers)
I'm trying out Flexum from TGS this year, too. It's a very interesting plant--the leaves are much broader and darker than most peppers, and it sets fruit that points upward (tips to the sky, base to the ground) from axils (where the petioles meets the main stem). The fruit is pale cream, almost white. Exotic looking--when I first saw the fruit, I thought I'd mislabled it as a pepper. Haven't picked one yet (got it in very late), but it looks to be full of potential, though not particularly vigorous. We'll see how the flavor comes out.

Late Blight Fungus Threatens Tomato Crop in Northeast and Mid-Atlantic - NYTimes.com
One of the scores of reasons NOT to buy plants from bigbox retailers like Lowes. Not only do they sell the unhealthy specimens of the wrong varieties and at the wrong time of the year, their plants often introduce new diseases and insects into the garden. I have seen Lowes sell rose bushes covered in anthracnose and fruit trees with fungus evident on the stems. Every once and a while, I'll buy, say, onion sets or a hibiscus from a retailer, but if it can be grown from seed or cutting, I'll take the time and save the money by doing it myself.
Late Blight Fungus Threatens Tomato Crop in Northeast and Mid-Atlantic - NYTimes.com: "Professor Fry, who is genetically tracking the blight, said the outbreak spread in part from the hundreds of thousands of tomato plants bought by home gardeners at Wal-Mart, Lowe’s, Home Depot and Kmart stores starting in April. The wholesale gardening company Bonnie Plants, based in Alabama, had supplied most of the seedlings and recalled all remaining plants starting on June 26. Dennis Thomas, Bonnie Plants’ general manager, said five of the recalled plants showed signs of late blight.
“This pathogen did not come from our plants,” Mr. Thomas said on Wednesday. “This is something that has been around forever.”
Mr. Draper said the diseased seedlings, found in stores as far west as Ohio, were at least one source of the illness, but, he added, “It’s possible that we are looking at multiple epidemics.”
Mr. Mishanec said agricultural pathogens can easily spread when plants are distributed regionally and sold by big-box retailers.
“Farms are inspected, greenhouses are inspected,” he said, “but garden centers aren’t, and the people who work there aren’t trained to spot disease.”"

Half-way done...
I think I've reached the halfway point in the mulch pile. About 125 loads of mulch so far dragged into the backyard. My wife is doing the smaller beds in the front. I vacillate between thinking "there's not nearly enough mulch here to do all I want" to thinking "HOLY COW what am I going to do with ALL THIS MULCH!" Likely the endgame will be somewhere in-between.
Let's see... Broccoli is already up. I went out this morning to check the tomatoes and peppers and there was nada. Then I came back an hour later and two Nepal tomatoes had popped out of the soil. Kinda cool.
It's hiatus time in the garden. Nothing's producing much, except the peppers, eggplants and okra. Everything's just growing and storing energy. I think I'll have a smashing year for batatas and maybe malanga. My Mississippi Silver cowpeas haven't started producing yet, but when they do, I'm going to make my traditional pea and macaroni salad... Mmmmm.
Oh, and, finally, a new crop in my garden: Culinary ginger. I planted some corms yesterday. I've taken to making this recipe of ginger-ale. Yum. Very easy, very tasty. My sources tell me that culinary ginger grows well in partial shade, well-drained. I'll keep the blog posted.

End of the tomato season...
I ended the tomato season (a disappointing one) yesterday by ripping out the full-sized tomatoes that were still in my garden. This being Florida, the day before I started four cool-season tomatoes (Nepal, Black Plum, Yellow Submarine and Tiffany). They'll go in the ground sometime during August, maybe at the beginning of September. It'll be a battle to keep them disease- and pest-free, but if it works, I'll have tomatoes from October until the frosts... Let's see, what else. I'm still moving mulch. Easily a hundred loads so far dragged into the back yard and spread throughout the garden. When I'm done, it my garden will be a grass-free zone. (Right now, the only grass is on the paths.) It's a lot of work, especially inasmuch as the mulch is very wet. In zones where I don't have anything growing, I'm piling it very deep so that when the dry season arrives, I'll have some nice soil to work with.
I noticed yesterday how many worms I have--every handful of dirt has one or two in it. I found a little worm nursery that was seething with scores of tiny red wrigglers. Very good sign, and another indication that minimal spraying leads to a healthy garden.
Oh, yeah, I also planted some "Premium Crop" broccoli. It can go in sometime in late August, maybe earlier. I just need to keep it on life support until the heat abates a bit.
Nesbit grapes are slowly ripening. A poor fig season, but my trees are still quite small. Lots of citrus on my super-dwarfed trees (Flying Dragon! Love it!). Peppers are still setting fruit, which is nice--both my bell and banana peppers are full of fruit, which is the first time that's every happened for me in July. |
825 | Recent research suggests that the genotype of one individual in a friendship pair is predictive of the genotype of his/her friend. These results provide tentative support for the genetic homophily perspective, which has important implications for social and genetic epidemiology because it substantiates a particular form of gene–environment correlation. This process may also have important implications for social scientists who study the social factors related to health and health-related behaviors. We extend this work by considering the ways in which school context shapes genetically similar friendships. Using the network, school, and genetic information from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, we show that genetic homophily for the TaqI A polymorphism within the DRD2 gene is stronger in schools with greater levels of inequality. Our results suggest that individuals with similar genotypes may not actively select into friendships; rather, they may be placed into these contexts by institutional mechanisms outside of their control. Our work highlights the fundamental role played by broad social structures in the extent to which genetic factors explain complex behaviors, such as friendships.

Cryptography
On Public Key Algorithms based on the Discrete Logarithm Problem A general introduction on the topic (Cryptography related). I wrote this paper for my Master's Comprehensive Exam (Spring 2002).
Abstract: In this paper we introduce public key algorithms based on the discrete logarithm problem. We first define what we mean by a public key cryptosystem and then introduce the Diffie-Hellman key-agreement protocol. We generalize this protocol to arbitrary cyclic groups. From this protocol we derive the ElGamal cryptosystem, which is a public key cryptosystem in the sense of our definition. We furthermore introduce ElGamal signatures. All these algorithms are based on the discrete logarithm problem. We will introduce two algorithms which can be used to calculate discrete logarithms in finite fields. We will see, that the running time of these algorithms is high for large groups (or groups with special properties) and therefore impractical. We will further introduce alternatives to the traditional Z/p* group.

832 | Love you like a fat kid likes cakes, 50 Cent’s lyrics described me perfectly as a child and adult. I have always struggled with weight loss as a kid and was always chunky. I love food, specifically sweets and junk foods and would eat them as meal replacements as if this was nutritious. During my childhood, we didn’t waste food. I can remember vividly spending time at my grandmother’s house and having to sit at the dinner table or on the floor with newspaper not to waste food. We would eat these huge man plates of food because she did not believe in wasting food. I think this mentality sticks with me as an adult because I don’t like to waste food till this day. I eat things in one sitting especially junk foods, I don’t believe in saving food for later. This led me to being obese and I weighed 300lbs that made me look like I was 500lbs for my body frame.
Fast forward to adulthood, I tried several fad diets, which lead to losing weight fast, but I would gain it right back. The year of 2013 was a game changer; I was in my second year of teaching in the Chicago Public School District. However, several things were going on within the school district, which led us to strike for 7 days. While in my mind, I thought this would be great. I could relax at home and enjoy this since I wasn’t getting paid nor would I be teaching. I was wrong! The union rep stated that we would have to be marching, holding signs, and meeting up at the school or marching downtown. In my mind, this was work; I could as well be in the classroom. However, as a result of marching and walking long miles downtown protesting, I lost 7lbs of my starting weight that was at 300lbs. I thought since I had lost the 7lbs, I should keep this up. I started working out in the morning before work to Tae Boe, Richard Simmons, Jillian Michael’s DVDs, also drinking SlimFast shakes as meal replacements and eating salads. Of course this method of eating was not healthy because it wasn’t a balanced meal of fat, carbs, and protein, which I have grown to know and become more knowledgeable in nutrition and fitness.
That seemed to work as I got down to the early 200s. However, I wanted to break out of the 200s. Also, during this time I had fibroids, which made my monthly cycle a pain because it would go about 7 days, I would go through several maxi pads in a day, and just be uncomfortable. The fibroids were so large that it made me look like I was 5 months pregnant and I have never been pregnant. As a result of having the fibroids and having several large ones. I consulted with an OBGYN and she recommended a myomectomy, a surgical procedure to remove the fibroids. I completed in July 2014, I was out of commission for 6 weeks. I basically had a tummy tuck and had lost another other10lbs however I gained it back in a short period of time. I was back to the 200s.
I started a new job in 2015, in a nice area in Chicago and there was this fitness co-ed boutique in the neighborhood. I would walk past it all the time and see the yellow banner advertisement $21 for 21 days. I figured I could try it; so I went for a free class. Just like anyone that has not worked out in a while, it was quite intimidating walking into a gym where the people are fit and working out real good. It was a weight lifting class where members would lift 50lbs and up. I was partnered with someone who was fit and was lifting heavy; I made it through the class and eventually purchased the $21 for 21 days deal. I really enjoyed the classes, they were very challenging and after the 21 days, I lost 10lbs. I was motivated and the women at the gym were very nice and helpful. They looked like everyday women that were working toward their fitness goal at different fit levels and different body types. I decided to become a member even though; I had to earn my membership in the gym. After attending a number of classes and showing dedication, I earned my certificate that certified me as a member. Every member gets a free membership T-shirt. At the gym everyone wears the same shirt so that everyone can be uniform and to not feel intimidated. We all looked the same and were working toward the same goal.
After becoming a member, I was working out, but I reverted back to eating junk foods. On the31st of December I made commitment that I would take 2016 seriously weighing in at 216.4. I had joined an accountability program at the gym: Calendar Cover Contest. I received weekly challenges regarding nutrition and fitness guides that come with weighted points. The winner would receive a prize. Though, I didn’t place in the top 3, but I lost another 20lbs and my frame was looking real good. I went on to do several other accountability programs that assisted in my weight loss. This furthered reduced my size to smallest weight of 156lbs and being able to fit in a size-6 pants.
I learned that losing weight is a lifestyle, I had to make exercise a habit and part of my life in addition, to eating balanced meals: Fats, protein, and carbs. Meal prepping is key to being successful. I learned all these at the gym program that has changed my life, and I try to share it with my friends and families.

833 | “Trans” encompasses almost anyone who doesn’t identify with the gender assignment given to them at birth . It is the superset term that includes binary, genderqueer/non-binary, agender, and other individuals who do not identity with they were designated as at birth.
More than mere gender variance, being trans often (but not always!) leads to a condition known as “ gender dysphoria”, where your sense of identity and how society classifies you clash. Sometimes things can’t be done to transition, and others will undergo hormone therapy and gender reassignment surgeries to correct this. Some simply identify as male or female, others fall somewhere in between, sometimes as both, and others don’t identify or even understand the concept of gender.
There is no “one size fits all” approach. Identity is personal, and sometimes grouping oversimplifies our variety of natures. This has pigeon-holed and overstuffed what it means to be a male, females, or something else entirely…rather than letting us be ourselves.

834 | Over the Thanksgiving weekend, I did something I’ve never done before – plunked a 5.5-kilogram turkey on the Big Green Egg.
We went looking for a chicken to do beer butt style on the Egg for the weekend, but all we could find at the store were turkeys.
Mary Beth returned with the bird, and I still offered to do it on the Egg, since it can cook just like an oven and keeps everything so darned moist.
So, as she prepped the bird inside, I prepped the barbecue outside. After getting it up to about 320 F, I added the plate setter, which turns the barbecue into an indirect-heating oven, and waited for the temperature to settle a bit more.
On went the bird and open went the beverages.
Such a large, cold bird messed with the temperature of the Egg a bit, so I had to adjust a few times and went through more lump charcoal than I expected to use, but the end result was spectacular.
Mary Beth is the turkey expert; I’ve never cooked anything other than a turkey breast, so I relied on her knowledge. “Twenty minutes a pound,” was her advice.
I didn’t even put in a meat probe, trusting Mary’s turkey knowledge.
After a little more than three hours, she checked the firmness of one leg, commented it would be another 30 minutes or so. I popped another beverage.
As advertised, the bird was ready at the pre-determined time. It had browned up beautifully. The drip pan, which we’d added water to on a couple of occasions, was the starting point for our gravy, and it had done a great job keeping the turkey moist.
Cauliflower, garlic smashed potatoes, stuffing (cheated on the stove top inside) and brown sugar squash completed the meal. It was delicious.
The turkey was very juicy and had a slight smoky flavour from the Egg, as did the squash.
I’d cook turkey that way again in a heartbeat.
Tasting at the Barn
Mary Beth and I have stopped in at Red Barn Brewing in the past to pick up local craft beer, but we finally had the opportunity recently to go in and sit down to sample some beer, enjoy a hot pretzel and take in the atmosphere of the tasting room.
It truly is gorgeous in side the barn. Denny, Sandy and Dan, and their family, have done a great job in there.
As for the beer, it was on point as well. We each ordered a “flight” of four samplers. Mary went for the selection of sours on tap, while I opted for more traditional offerings – a red, an IPA, a pilsner and a heavy ale.
All were quite tasty. So many different flavours all at once.
We opted for a hot pretzel while we were there and it was a perfect compliment for the beer.
Mary and I shared a third flight of beer – four new beer flavours to try.
Through all those beverages, I believe we had only tasted two of them before.
It sounds like we guzzled a great deal of craft beer, but that’s the great thing about the flights – the four sampler glasses perhaps make up a pint of beer. So we really only had a pint and a half each over the course of a couple of hours.
I must thank Denny for stopping by the table to chat beer and plans for the brewery in the future. They’ve got a really good thing going just north of Blenheim and I encourage people to sample what they’re making…responsibly of course.

839 | This is my place to relate my experiences with cancer treatment, as well as share resources that may be helpful to fellow oral, head, and neck cancer survivors. I was diagnosed with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the left parotid on June 30, 2006. My goal is to continue enjoying the Nebraska Good Life. I call this blog the "Cheeky Librarian", since the cancer was discovered in my cheek, I am a librarian, and many that know me say I fit the slang use of the word 'cheeky'.

I just saw Brule in person!!
Ok, I know you aren't supposed to say you are out and about when talking on the web, but I cannot remain silent. I just saw my most favorite group of performers-singers, dancers, instrumentalists-while here in Branson. (Yes, if you have heard any Cheekymobile sightings in southern Missouri this week, they were true.) Brule (there is an accent over the 'e', but this librarian hasn't figured out how to type it) is a contemporary Native American music group. They are award winners- individually and together. The leader of the band found out later in life that he was Lower Sioux Brule (no accent over the 'e'), and began to meld his two worlds together-his unknown heritage with today's world. Here is their site-http://www.brulerecords.com/home.html. They don't have a word for goodbye in the Lakota language-just one that says we will meet again, either here or in the next world. I have met them before, in Sioux Falls, SD, when they played at a librarian conference. They were the music I listened to on my iPod after the skull operation, when I was so happy to have my memories. They were the group that I played the loudest in the Cheekymobile when I lost my voice last summer. They are the group that my mom and I listen to in the car during our road trips, including the one to Gulf Shores and last year to St. Louis. I have never been a 'groupie', or a 'fan' (short for 'fanatic', after all) of musicians, but I was unashamedly that tonight, after listening/experiencing their music and dance at the RFD-TV Theater. My mom and I loved every minute of the night-what a way to celebrate life!
This may be a stretch, but when I received the diagnosis of cancer, I too began to walk in two worlds. Thank you, Brule, for giving me strength and rhythm for my strides as I work to keep up with both of them. Keep on keeping on, Brule. Congratulations on your success, and I wish you years more.

If you are reading this blog for the first time
Click on 2006 in the Blog Archive below to read about my initial cancer treatment issues - radiation side effects, dietary, fatigue - and how I dealt with them. The coping methods and information sources are shared in the hopes they will be useful to others that are following in the cancer treatment pathways.

841 | Do you like certain types of books – stories about dogs, or maybe vacations in Italy? Perhaps you like adventure stories, or space opera, or a good forensic mystery, but don’t know what to read next. Do you like binge-reading a good series?
Have you noticed the case of bound books in the middle of the lobby?
Take a closer look at our Book Bundles.
Book bundles are three books of a common theme bound together, so you can binge-read on a topic you enjoy. It might be outdoors, kidnappings, or WWII stories. It could be autism, award winners, westerns, Book Club Favorites, art heists, robots, or gothic horror. There’s always something new on the shelf, so check it frequently. Intrigued by a category? Check out the bundle and explore!
But not all of the titles seem interesting to me – what if I only want to check out one or two?
You can check out one or all three, whatever you’d like. Just return the unwanted ones to the desk and we’ll find them new partners.
Don’t see anything to your liking? Prefer existentialist graphic novels? Right now you’re only reading novels that have cats in them? Trying to catch up on real-life medical stories? Let us know! We’d be happy to take requests!
There’s nothing like finding a good book, and it’s even better when you find three new favorites at once. A whole new world of reading adventures awaits!

A real estate powerhouse, Amy Duong Kim joined the industry in 2005 and quickly pulled her husband, Howard Kim, into the business to establish a team. Today she’s a founding member at Compass, the president of Duong Kim Global, and the 2020 president of the Greater Chicago chapter of the Asian Real Estate Association of America. She serves customers of all types, including investors, luxury clients and first-time homebuyers.
With many years of experience living and working all over Chicagoland, the team brings intimate, diverse knowledge of the market to clients. “It’s important to understand each and every client is different. Their backgrounds are different. Their stories are different. Their reasons for buying and selling are different. And as such, we always work for and with our clients with open hearts and minds, with compassion and patience,” Duong Kim says.
Duong Kim and Kim have rapidly grown their team by prioritizing education, attentive service and tough negotiation. Broker Eva Knapp is armed with a background in marketing and public relations, experience as a small business owner, and extensive knowledge of Chicago. With four years of real estate experience behind her, Knapp works with a variety of clients on single-family homes, multifamily properties, new construction and more. She takes a relaxed, personable and data-driven approach to her work and prides herself on keeping up to date with the market, which allows her to properly advise clients. “I let my clients drive the process without feeling pressure to buy something quickly or to act without proper research,” she says.
Thanks to the group’s efforts to navigate a complex market, Duong Kim Global has been able to find success as a team. They made REAL Trends’ America’s Best list in 2019 and were ranked among the top 100 teams by Chicago magazine in 2020.

849 | “For what’s the sound of the world out there / Those crunching noises pervading the air?” sings the title character of Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler’s 1979 musical Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street in the show’s first-act finale. He then answers his own question with relish: “It’s man devouring man, my dear / And who are we to deny it in here?”
The story of Sweeney Todd is part of a literary and dramatic genre whose popularity challenged 19th-century Britain’s facade of imperial power and Christian moral superiority: gothic horror, which plumbed the emotional and psychic chaos swirling underneath the veneer of Victorian propriety. First appearing as a “penny dreadful” serial, “The String of Pearls,” in 1846, the tale may or may not have echoed the real-life case of a Parisian serial killer; but whether fact-based or purely fictional, it has gripped the public imagination for more than 150 years. It concerns a barber whose tonsorial parlor in London’s Fleet Street is really a house of horrors. Todd (his name echoes Tod, the German word for “death”) lures customers into his shop, slits their throats with his straight razor, and then drops them down a trapdoor, where they’re chuted into the basement of an adjacent bakery. There, Todd’s companion, Nellie Lovett, bakes the carcasses into meat pies.
Cannibalism—that’s the tale’s beauty part. By serving up the victims to a hungry public, Lovett and Todd not only break an ancient taboo; they also involve their hungry customers as willing, if unwitting, accomplices to their hideous crime.
Sondheim and Wheeler’s adaptation of the story, based on a 1973 play by Christopher Bond, emphasizes a social-protest element in the story: Sweeney’s crime spree is his maddened response to the injustice he has endured at the hands of wicked, hypocritical Judge Turpin, who raped Sweeney’s wife and sent Sweeney to an Australian penal colony on trumped-up charges. Returning to London —where he finds that Turpin has raised Sweeney’s daughter as his ward and now intends to marry her—Sweeney embarks on his wanton murder rampage after failing to exact revenge upon his wrongdoer.
When he directed the premiere of Sondheim and Wheeler’s Sweeney Todd on Broadway in 1979, director Harold Prince emphasized the saga’s potential for political commentary: his epic-scale production, which played at Chicago’s Arie Crown Theater in 1981, employed a sprawling network of catwalks and girders to evoke the story’s industrial-revolution setting. The “respectable” pie shop run by ruthless businesswoman Lovett served as an allegory for capitalism as economic cannibalism. Todd and Lovett—brilliantly played in the premiere by Len Cariou and Angela Lansbury—came off more as icons than characters.
Michael Weber, director of Porchlight Music Theatre’s intimate new production of Sweeney Todd, dispenses with Prince’s political commentary. “What especially interests me,” says Weber in his program notes, “is that [Todd] may once have been a full-blooded man.” Porchlight’s Todd, played by bald, burly bass David Girolmo, is certainly the most vulnerable incarnation of the character I’ve seen. There’s nothing larger-than-life about this sad, obsessed victim-turned-victimizer; his random slayings seem almost distracted, the reflexive, absentminded gestures of a man operating on emotional autopilot. Rebecca Finnegan’s bold, buxom Lovett is the driving force in this demented duo. Sweeney kills people because he can’t lay his hands on the person he really wants, Turpin; Lovett encourages his actions because it allows her to have Todd all to herself (or so she thinks).
This is abundantly clear in the production’s best number, the first-act finisher “A Little Priest,” in which Lovett enlists Todd in her murder-for-profit scheme by playing a word game with him, inviting him to invent rhymed responses to her suggestions of different people they can kill—priest, poet, locksmith, sailor, etc. As the couple bond into their folie a deux, the rollicking number takes on a monstrous momentum driven by the steady beat of the offstage band’s drum.
Girolmo and Finnegan receive fine support from Edward J. MacLennan as Turpin; Stephanie Stockstill as Todd’s daughter; Brian Acker as her passionate swain; Miles Blim as a hapless urchin whom Lovett takes into her care; Kelli Harrington as a wretched beggar woman with an awful secret; and Kevin Webb, in a marvelous comic-opera turn as a flamboyant Italian barber who competes with Todd in a public display of barberism. The chorus under Doug Peck’s musical direction is superb in what is surely one of the most demanding musicals ever written, full of dissonant, densely voiced chorales as well as rapturous operatic arias and nimble operetta patter songs. But the music’s complexity, as well as the fact that the stage is surrounded by viewers on three sides, demands the performers’ unrelenting commitment to their consonants. Every syllable in Sondheim’s rapid-fire lyrics matters, and it’s all too easy for the words to get swallowed up by a big sound.
Designers Bill Morey (costumes), Jeffrey D. Kmiec (set), and Greg Hofmann and Jess Goings (light) work with director Weber to concoct a wonderfully gloomy atmosphere, intensified by the eerie sound effects created by Jenna Moran. This version of Sweeney Todd is steeped in Dickensian dolefulness, which underscores the pathos in this musical-theater masterpiece.

I suppose that works... but in my opinion it is easier to just use the cabinet filler tool. Under the Build menu right under your normal cabinet tools are the Cabinet Filler tools. These tools will place a 3" default cabinet filler that already has a blank face. If you zoom in and place one in between the cabinet and the wall, it should resize smaller to span the gap. The only reason that I would use an actual cabinet is if you need to show sides or a back but in those cases I would still start with the filler and then uncheck the "filler" option so you don't have to edit the face items.

Dermot at one time I was having problems with the fillers and not sure if it was the base wasn't showing the backsplash or if the wall filler wasn't showing the backsplash when I had it full height, I just tested it and all seems to work ok know I might of had this happen in a previous version and never looked at it in an updated version and just kept doing the old way since that worked for me but I am changed know so crosscutter do as Dermot says |

852 | Security cameras, also known as surveillance cameras, are used to monitor homes, businesses, and other types of properties. Typically, they are connected to a recording device such as a tape recorder or a disk. In the last few years, IP-based security cameras have become increasingly popular. Security cameras enable you to remotely monitor a scene and play back recorded images.
Analog CCTV Cameras
Analog Closed-Circuit Television cameras record pictures or videos as analog signals. Most of old surveillance cameras are analog cameras. This type of camera records directly onto a video tape recorder. In order to save recordings to a PC, the analog signal must be converted to a digital format; this can be done with a video capture card.
Digital CCTV Cameras
Digital CCTV cameras directly capture images and videos as digital signals. The signals are compressed and encoded into a standard video format such as MPEG. Digital CCTV cameras usually record videos onto a hard drive or a storage server.
DVR/NVR Security System
A DVR (Digital Video Recorder) security camera system or a NVR surveillance system is basically a series of security cameras connected to a monitor and recording system. Most (old) DVR/NVR security camera systems are CCTV-based with the cameras connected to the recording system via video cables. A multi-channel DVR/NVR security camera system is dramatically more expensive than a regular IP camera; DVR/NVR security camera systems from different vendors require different cameras. Using IP-based network cameras, you don't need a DVR/NVR security camera system as each network camera can connect to the cloud directly.
IP / Network Cameras / Webcams
An Internet Protocol camera or network camera is a type of digital video camera that can send and receive data via a computer network. This type of camera has become increasingly popular among homeowners and business owners in the last few years because of steep price drop. A webcam can also be considered as a network camera because it can send or receive data via a computer.
Security Camera Vulnerabilities
Security cameras themselves are not completely secure. They can fail due to dust, smoke, fog, loss of power, or damage. They are also easily susceptible to tampering. If a security camera records data onsite, both the camera and the recorded data can be destroyed – by intruders, burglars, or anyone else who wants the data gone forever.
Camera Features
Motion Detection
Many security cameras now support motion detection - a technology that triggers recording only when something changes in the scene. Motion can be detected by image changes or sound changes. Many security cameras can only detect image changes. As minor scene changes can occur due to events such as natural light changes or wind changes, many security cameras allow you to configure a “threshold”. By setting a higher threshold, minor scene changes will be ignored and only scene changes that reach the “threshold” will be recorded. Motion detection is very useful if you want to significantly reduce bandwidth and storage usage.
Night Vision Cameras
One of the main usages of a security camera is to monitor night-time scenes. If the scene is not well lit, it is recommended that you use a camera with night vision capability. Those cameras use an infrared spectrum of light at night and can take pictures of objects in the dark.
Wireless Security Cameras
Wireless security cameras transmit video and audio signals wirelessly to a receiving device. There are analog and digital types of wireless cameras. Digital security cameras have become much more popular recently because they can be accessed over the Internet.
FTP/SMTP Cameras
FTP/SMTP cameras are a type of IP cameras that can upload recorded image/video files to an FTP/email server. Almost all IP cameras support FTP/SMTP uploading. FTP offsite storage is the most popular way of storing image/video files from a security camera/DVR.
Video Cameras
All security cameras are video cameras. Most security cameras support real-time monitoring / live streaming via a web browser within the same network. From the Internet, it requires more complicated network configuration. Some security cameras can store video files to a network file server within the same network. Almost all security cameras can upload image snapshots to an FTP/SMTP server; some cameras can also upload video clips to an FTP/SMTP server. CameraFTP supports video recording if your camera supports it.
Camera Storage & Image Size
Security Camera Storage
Most DVR/NVR security camera systems can store recorded images and videos to a tape, hard drive, or onsite storage server. However, storing data in this manner leaves it susceptible to tampering and damage by intruders. For better protection and security, offsite storage is the best solution.
Storage Requirement
The required amount of storage is dependent on your camera’s image resolution, frame rate, compression ratio and days of retention. Setting up your camera to use motion detection can significantly reduce storage usage.
Camera Retention Time
Security cameras can generate a large amount of data. The amount depends on the compression ratio, images captured per second, and image size. Most cameras provide a limited amount of storage space; therefore, recordings are usually kept for a preset amount of time before being overwritten by new images.
Camera Image Resolutions
An analog security camera usually supports PAL (768x576 Pixels) or NTSC (720x480 pixels) format. A digital security camera can support many different image resolutions, e.g. 640x480, 800x600, 1280x960, 1920x1080 and more.
Upload Bandwidth
While the resolutions of still image cameras can go as high as 10 million pixels, for a video surveillance camera, the standard resolution is lower. The main reason probably is because of storage and bandwidth requirement. The higher the resolution, the more storage space and the more bandwidth it requires. If you set the resolution to higher than 1280x720 and if you have multiple cameras, you might run out of upload bandwidth if you use ADSL or Cable Modem connections.

Offsite Recording
Offsite recording addresses one of the biggest vulnerabilities of a security camera. Instead of storing recorded data onsite, recorded images are uploaded to Camera FTP server in real-time. Even if an intruder destroys a security camera, he cannot destroy the recorded data, which can be very helpful for tracking down the intruder.
Remote Play Back
Once a security camera uploads the recorded image/video files to Camera FTP server, you can play back the recorded footage from anywhere using CameraFTP’s Viewer App. The Camera Viewer feature is available for PC, MAC, tablet and smart phone.
Real-time viewing
Camera FTP supports real-time viewing (live streaming) of a scene using the Camera Viewer feature. Many IP cameras can support live viewing; however, such feature usually only works at the same location and only supports few connections. With Camera FTP service, you can view images/videos over the Internet from anywhere using any device. It also allows many people to live stream the video concurrently.
Home/Business Security
CameraFTP offers a revolutionary security and monitoring service for home and business users. Compared with traditional security services, it has a lot of advantages. It is extremely easy to setup, does not require any expensive hardware, requires no professional installation, and the cost is extremely low. Moreover, it is more secure than regular security services as it supports Cloud Recording and Playback.
Service Comparison
CameraFTP has many advantages over other security and surveillance services. You can compare features and prices with other security services. It is also better than using regular FTP/email service (such as Gmail, Outlook, Dropbox) for security camera storage. |

855 | There is one of these kid fitness places next to the dojon where my son does Taekwondo. When it opened I talked to the guy and realized there was a market for it. And he isn't packed, but there are always kids in there.
One person says in the article that she bought Wii Fit so she didn't have to force her kids to be active. It didn't seem right to her.
First off, as parents we often have to force our kids to do things they don't want. Secondly, if we live an active lifestyle our kids will.
I read this article after taking an hour long hike with my family. It isn't something we do every weekend, but it is something I wish we could do every weekend.
So what's wrong with making your kid be active?
I live in an area where the kids can be highly scheduled so it isn't simple to just go out and play wiht the kids in the neighborhood, but frankly, most video games are done by themselves so why can't a kid ride his bike by himself?
I'm old-fashioned, I realize. My kids are limited in their video game use. They are limited to their tv watching also.
I'm not as strict as some, but not as free as most, I guess.
So what do you think this says about our society that kids have to go to the gym to get exercise instead of walking outside their house?

I think it's a shame kids can't entertain themselves with their own imagination and get good exercise because of the games they play outdoors anymore. My childhood was lived and enjoyed out of doors, climbing trees, biking around town, playing pickup baseball and football, swimming. But it's a sign of the times. I mean, we didn't get a TV until I was ten, and it was black and white and we watched family friendly (that's all that was on of course - lol) shows together on family nights eating popcorn. I'm showing my age of course, but I think it's a doggone shame kids have to be entertained all the time in order to not get bored or be induced into getting some exercise.

I think it's sad. But just how comfortable would you be, letting your child take long walks around the neighborhood (the way we used to, as kids), knowing that there are at least five convicted child molesters living within a few blocks of your home?
I think it's sad that we've become so litigious that we'd sue a next door neighbor if our beloved child climbed their tree and broke a leg when the branch cracked. (Used to be, we'd worry more that the neighbor would be upset that Johnny broke their tree.)
I think it's sad we have to have fences between the yards in our neighborhoods.
I think...
Well, there's a upside, too. I know I enjoy being active WITH my son in Boy Scouts (never thought I'd say THAT!). I even enjoy camping, now. I spaced my kids eight years apart, so that once the younger one got involved in extracurricular activities, the older one was driving and we didn't need to juggle schedules so much.
There are trade-offs. I don't think as a parent you can just sit back and let your kids do whatever they gravitate towards doing; my son plays too many video games, but I use that as incentive to make him read and get out and try lots of new things, as well. (His "addiction" to video games has taught him how powerless other addictions can make you - I can take away his DS and it's amazing how quickly and pleasantly he complies with requests to do chores, or to read! He knows it will go away for months and months if his grades drop. But in all seriousness, I think he understands why he NEVER wants to indulge in drugs or alcohol.) |

About the artist
John Gibb in his studio
The Weekly Press, 12 December 1900, p. 62
Image supplied by Christchurch City Libraries (CCL-PhotoCD07-IMG0022)
By 1880, when the Canterbury Society of Arts was formed, John Gibb was the most popular painter of the Christchurch art world. Gibb was so highly regarded that the very first work acquired for Christchurch’s civic art collection was his Shades of Evening, the Estuary. It was purchased in 1881 by the Canterbury Society of Arts from its inaugural annual exhibition and then presented to the Gallery in 1932. Gibb loved sunsets; the golden hour when there’s still a trace of day in the sky. According to one family member Gibb would drop whatever he was doing in the evening to watch and study the setting sun. His pleasure in the atmospheric effects of evening light is apparent here, as the sun’s last rays create a subtle glow on the clouds, which is also reflected in the water. The view takes in Christchurch’s Ihutai / Avon-Heathcote Estuary.

earlier labels about this work
John Gibb,18 December 2015 – 28 August 2016
This painting was the first work bought for Christchurch's civic art collection, purchased in 1881 by the Canterbury Society of Arts from its inaugural annual exhibition and then given to the Gallery in 1932.
Gibb loved sunsets; according to one family member he would drop whatever he was doing in the evening to watch and study the setting sun. His pleasure in the atmospheric effects of evening light is apparent here, as the last rays of the setting sun create an intense orange glow reflected on the clouds.
The view takes in the estuary, also known as Te Wahapū, of Christchurch’s Avon (Ōtākaro) and Heathcote (Ōpāwaho) rivers, looking west towards the foothills of the Southern Alps.
This view of Christchurch’s Avon / Heathcote Estuary, also known as the Opawaho / Otakaro Estuary, looks west towards the foothills of the Southern Alps. A much more settled landscape today, in 1880 John Gibb shows only a small limp red flag and a derelict rowboat as signs of human activity. The painting is in the precise, academic realist style to which Gibb was exposed in Scotland. He liked to paint the atmospheric effects of the setting or rising sun, which give a romantic aspect to his works. Gibb was born in Cumbernauld, Scotland. He received tuition from John McKenzie at Greenockand, in 1861, began exhibiting at the Royal Scottish Academy. In 1868, however, he began exhibiting at the more progressive Royal Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts. Gibb emigrated from Scotland in 1876. He settled in Christchurch, was a founding member of the Canterbury Society of Arts and travelled widely in New Zealand, painting many different regions. (Label date unknown)

John Gibb Clearing up after Rain, Foot of Otira Gorge
The wild and rugged mountainous landscape of Otira has captivated visitors since the first road was cut through the gorge in the mid-1860s. Otira is the Māori place name for this region and translates as ‘the last rays of the sun’. It was a landscape that Gibb was drawn to, and he returned to paint it repeatedly throughout his career. An unforgiving place with high rainfall, rivers can rise suddenly and fill the gorge with the thundering noise of falling water. Gibb has painted the aftermath of one such storm in this work. The original Otira Hotel depicted in this painting was washed away when the Otira River flooded in 1886. (John Gibb, 18 December 2015 – 28 August 2016)

John Gibb From the Foot of the Hills
Gibb's view of the Canterbury Plains from the foot of Christchurch's Port Hills highlights the agricultural potential of this vast, flat expanse. The plains are also known as Kā Pākihi Whakatekateka a Waitaha, which translates from Māori as the seedbed of Waitaha (the region's early inhabitants). The region was a bountiful food source for the people of Ngāi Tahu, providing just as it does today. The cows standing in the middle of the gentle Heathcote / Ōpāwaho river in this painting provide a reminder, however, that this land needs to be respected if future generations are to continue to benefit from what Kā Pākihi Whakatekateka a Waitaha has to offer.

John Gibb Lyttelton Harbour, N.Z. Inside the Breakwater
As with Petrus van der Velden’s The Leuvehaven, this painting by John Gibb provides a view of a bustling port where ships come and go, unloading and loading their cargo. By 1886, when this painting was completed, the town of Lyttelton / Ōhinehou had been settled by pākehā for just over thirty-six years, and the port had become one of New Zealand’s busiest. Lyttelton Harbour / Whakaraupō provided welcome refuge for ships from the Pacific Ocean beyond the harbour heads, particularly once the breakwater had been completed. Gibb's painting shows fishing boats, sailing and steam ships, a launch and even a rowboat plying the sheltered waters of the harbour, busily going about their business. It was first shown at the Colonial and Indian Exhibition at the Royal Albert Hall in London in 1886, where it would have served well in promoting the progressive industriousness of the port and the prosperity of the Canterbury Province to an international audience.

John Gibb Bottle Lake
Bottle Lake appears revealed at Gibb’s favoured time of day, when the sun is low on the horizon and the sky is luminous with colour. On a boat in the lake some eeling is underway. Sunlight streams across the landscape, softly striking clouds and treetops, while the grass at the water’s edge is absolutely radiant in streaks of vivid green. The scene is highly detailed and the eye is encouraged to linger on the seductive serenity Gibb has provided.

857 | Andrew Strom has re-ignited concerns which have surfaced periodically since the time of the Toronto Blessing in 1994. The outspoken New Zealand preacher has written a book entitled 'Kundalini Warning' which suggests that false spirits are invading the church.
Ed. Foreward
I researched the New Age Movement (and its associated eastern spiritualities) back in the late 80s/early 90s and spoke, (by invitation at that time) to many church groups on the subject.
Awakening the Kundalini is the expression used by mystics, Hindu gurus and New Agers for the practice of focussing on a 'serpent spirit' which, they say, resides in each one of us in the form of a coiled snake located at the base of the spine. Through meditation and physical body positioning the aim is to 'raise the Kundalini' through a total of seven spiritual waypoints – called 'Chakras' – located along the spine.
The aim is to elevate the Kundalini spirit to the 'Crown Chakra' which is located at the top of the skull. Those who have gone through this process have described it as 'mind-blowing'.
I threw the 'best' book I had on the subject into the waste bucket as I didn't want it in my home, and I wouldn't want to quote from it in this article anyway.
The practice, which is spiritually dangerous in the extreme, is often linked with Yoga-like exercises associated with eastern meditation and mysticism. Chanting and essentially self-hypnotic routines can be a 'way in'.
Andrew Strom believes that these phenomena – stretching back to the Toronto Blessing – represent the 'worst invasion [of deceiving spirits] in church history' and, in his concern, goes as far as controversaly 'naming names'. It is up to the reader to exercise his/her own discernment on all that is contained in the following.
------------
KUNDALINI WARNING – Urgent
-by Andrew Strom.
I just saw the video of Rick Joyner announcing that Todd Bentley is back ministering every night at Morningstar in North Carolina and now they have so-called "revival" manifestations eerily similar to Lakeland. They also announced that they are streaming these big meetings every night on their new TV channel - and they are greatly promoting the whole thing.
Now I am a tongues-speaking Pentecostal myself - but can I ask a simple question here please? What kind of "spirit" was it operating in the Lakeland revival - when the leader and main focal- point of the meetings (Todd Bentley) was having an adulterous affair behind the scenes? Was it truly the "Holy" Spirit that was anointing something so sensual and unholy? And now that Todd divorced his wife and married his mistress - are we supposed to welcome him back and this "anointing" with him? What is going on here? Rick Joyner has been warned very specifically by high- level ministries not to do what he is doing now - bringing Todd Bentley back into the limelight. And yet it seems he does not care. Apparently the "manifestations" are all that matter.
So what exactly are these 'manifestations' if they are seemingly at home in such an unholy environment? Are they from God at all? (I am talking here about the violent "jerking", uncontrollable laughter, bodily contortions, drunkenness, 'portals', strange "angel" encounters, etc.) Why do we not see such an 'anointing' in the Bible? Why aren't Jesus or the apostles promoting these manifestations if they really are true Revival? Why instead do we see these things all the way through the New Age and Hinduism, etc? Do we not realize that many false religions have their own version of "laying on of hands" that results in these very types of manifestations? This 'spirit' is not in the Bible - but it is all the way through Kundalini-type Hinduism! Don't you think this should alarm us?
WHAT is KUNDALINI?
If you search for Kundalini and Shakti on the Internet, you will find that multitudes of people in the New Age and Eastern religions still experience these powerful manifestations. Often this is with the help of a Guru, who touches them on the forehead so that they can experience a "Kundalini Awakening".
As researcher Robert Walker wrote in 1995: "The meetings which mystic Hindu gurus hold are called 'Darshan'. At these meetings devotees go forward to receive spiritual experience from a touch by the open palm of the hand, often to the forehead, by the guru in what is known as the Shakti Pat or divine touch. The raising of the spiritual experience is called raising Kundalini. After a period when the devotee has reached a certain spiritual elevation they begin to shake, jerk, or hop or squirm uncontrollably, sometimes breaking into uncontrolled animal noises or laughter as they reach an ecstatic high. These manifestations are called 'Kriyas'. Devotees sometimes roar like lions and show all kinds of physical signs during this period. Often devotees move on to higher states of spiritual consciousness and become inert physically and appear to slip into an unconsciousness."
And as the guru Shri Yogãnandji Mahãrãja wrote: "When Your body begins trembling, hair stands on roots, you laugh or begin to weep without your wishing, your tongue begins to utter deformed sounds, you are filled with fear or see frightening visions. the Kundalini Shakti has become active."
In China there is a popular Kundalini-type movement called 'Qigong'. When a Chinese Qigong spiritual master spoke in the USA in
1991, the San Francisco Chronicle reported that many in the crowd began to experience "spontaneous movements". The master told his audience, "Those who are sensitive might start having some strong physical sensations - or start laughing or crying. Don't worry. This is quite normal."
When you see videos of these "kriyas" or other Kundalini-type manifestations, you would often swear that you are watching a modern "Impartation"-type church meeting. (And I say this as someone who believes strongly in the gifts of the Holy Spirit. I just don't believe in "alien" anointings infiltrating the Body of Christ! There is a big difference between Kundalini and the real Holy Spirit).
Since 1993-4, I believe a foreign spirit has been allowed to invade the church - first through Rodney Howard-Browne's ministry - then Toronto, then the Prophetic movement (which I was part of at the time) and on into Lakeland and many other ministries and movements. I urge people now to "test the spirits" just as we are commanded to in Scripture. Do not let just anyone lay hands on you. This is a powerful spirit and it has the backing of a lot of big-name ministries. In fact, these men and women are the very ones responsible for allowing it to spread right through the body of Christ. And one day they will be answerable to God for doing so.
We are specifically warned in the Bible that the Last Days will be a time of "seducing spirits," false prophets, 'lying signs and wonders,' and that we always need to watch for "angels of light" masquerading as the real thing. Why does the modern church not take these warnings seriously? Aren't we living in the very days that the Bible warns about?
Right now I need to do something that I have never done in such a way before. I have never before published a list of ministries or movements to watch out for. But this time I have to. This sickness has gone on long enough. I urge you to cut yourself off from the following ministries and their tainted "anointings" my friends. Even though some of these people say "good things" at times, it is simply not worth having any involvement with them due to the tainted anointing that they endorse or minister in themselves. Here is the list-
(1) Todd Bentley.
(2) Rodney Howard Browne - the so-called "Holy Ghost Bartender."
(2) Rick Joyner or anyone connected with Morningstar Ministries.
(3) John Arnott & any connected with TACF (The "Toronto Blessing").
(4) Peter Wagner of the 'New Apostolic Reformation' who claims to be head of a worldwide network of 'apostles' - who publicly endorsed Lakeland and will soon preach at Toronto TACF alongside other "false anointing" advocates.
(5) Mike Bickle and IHOP Kansas City (-I lived nearby for over two years - and know how much they are into all this stuff. Mike Bickle promotes it in his book).
(6) Bob Jones - the Kansas City prophet whose ministry is utterly tainted by it all.
(7) Patricia King and anyone else from 'Extreme Prophetic.'
(8) John Crowder & anyone connected with "Sloshfest."
(9) Bill Johnson of Bethel church, Redding - who says some good things but publicly endorsed Lakeland and promotes the "false anointing" very strongly behind the scenes.
(10) Heidi & Rolland Baker of IRIS Ministries - who do good work amongst the poor in Mozambique - but who have also carried and promoted this tainted anointing for years.
(11) Randy Clark, Wes & Stacey Campbell, and other key figures from the "Toronto blessing."
(12) The Elijah List - and almost anyone featured on it.
Of course there are a huge number of lesser-known preachers and ministries who carry or endorse this Kundalini-type "anointing" around the world. But I have concentrated here on the most influential that I know of. It really is an enormous issue in the church. I urge anyone who is a supporter of any of the above ministries to really check them out thoroughly. If you find (as I have) that they carry or endorse this false Kundalini spirit in the church, then please stop supporting them in any way - and whatever you do, don't let them "lay hands" on you!
I am putting everything on the line to be "naming names" like this. But I believe it is that serious. How on earth did we get to the point where "kriyas" just like Hinduism are spreading through the church?
These people are trying to "relaunch" this whole thing right now. To see a video showing "kriyas" and other Kundalini-type manifestations, please click on the Youtube links below-

Andrew Strom is founder of RevivalSchool.com and the international REVIVAL list. He was involved for 11 years in the same Prophetic movement as Todd Bentley until he left over what he saw as the unbiblical and bizarre phenomenon within that movement. His article originally entitled 'Why I left the prophetic movent' has since been published in book form with the title 'True and False Revival'.

Sorry, I am still confused, are you saying that Todd Bentley is repentant?
Pawlo 04/08/2010 17:38
Hi Peter,
I think its to do with people who have left the movement that Todd Bentley etc started, not that Todd Bentley has himself turned away from it.
Peter Carr 04/08/2010 18:06
OK thanks Paul. It is a worthwhile exercise to remember what Bentley is capabale of, like the time when he kicked a man with colon cancer in the stomach with the pretence that he was kicking the cancer out of him. The man has since died of colon cancer!!

The facts are that Todd Bentley has divorced his wife Shonnah and has married Jessa the woman he was previously having an affair with during the so-called Lakeland revival. This is not repentance.
They talk about it here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHDHedCkjzo
As well Todd and his new wife are back in the pulpit through Morningstarministries.org
False prophets Bob Jones and Rick Joyner made a public showing of their support for Todd and his new wife Jessa, you can see the event here at these links:

Part 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHHAURjJnzA
Remember, Bob Jones was found guilty of using his prophetic gifts to undress women in his office.
What a mess, and what a shame that many in the church today don't seem to exercise any discernment.
One last video link - this one is of Jessa Bentley experiencing what appears to be a Kundalini release. Interesting . . .

"As well Todd and his new wife are back in the pulpit through Morningstarministries.org"
It is worth noting that the morning star is used in scripture as a reference to Satan as well as Christ, Satan ultimately trying to decieve the church by masquerading as an angel of light.
See Isaiah 14:12-13 and 2 Cor 11,13-15
Brian Ross 13/08/2010 14:01
It must be some thirty years since I first started to realise that one of the sadly missing gifts in the church was/is discernment. However, not having the platform that was provided for others, my thoughts didn't reach a very wide audience!!
"... a list of ministries that are credible and sound is as vital if not more so, to help those who heed the warning and leave the movement so they may be strengthened in the true way. They will need strong foundational teaching and good ministries in discernment."
This is so very true. I once taught a series of evening classes on Cults and Heresies. One of the initial points that I made was that, in banking, tellers are taught to recognise counterfeit bank-notes, not by being shown lots of counterfeits, but by handling the genuine article so much, and becoming so familiar with it, that the counterfeit is instantly recognised! We need true Holy Spirit revival in our land, and in our world. That requires, not just lots of folk dancing and speaking in tongues (and I do both when appropriate), but real discipleship in the living Word of God, the sword of the Spirit.

858 | It’s been three weeks since we dropped my older son off at college. He’s doing okay. Texting is the world’s greatest invention. EVER.
I, on the other hand, have found this entire year very stressful (even before he left). When I get stressed out, I tend to lose my appetite. A long time ago, I found that a great way to handle stress is to do more physical things. Lately I’ve been hiking a lot and eating less.
I’ve lost ten pounds since my son went off to college.
I can’t honestly say I’m unhappy, because the moments of sheer joy when I reach the top of a mountain (hiking, not rock climbing, I assure you) are sublime. The rattlesnake we saw yesterday on the way back down Mt. Tammany was NOT sublime. It was cool. Interesting. A little freaky, but not sublime.
Finding out that my son’s roommate bought a jar of peanut butter and cracked it open in their room to eat it, was also NOT FUN. I have a feeling I’ll be going hiking again in a day or so.
The moment I managed to climb up the Skyline Trail onto the North Lookout at Hawk Mountain was surprising (because, yeah, that actually was rock climbing). I didn’t know I could do that. I doubt I’ll do it again.
We go to visit my son in a week for the day. I’m looking forward to it.

Addressing Charles Weisman’s What About the Seedline Doctrine? Part 7, Evil for Wicked or Good
Here we shall continue our address of chapter 3 of Charles Weisman’s book, which is simply titled “The Serpent”. As I had said before we began this endeavor in our last presentation, because this is probably the most important chapter in his book, we may present and address every single paragraph, so that none of our detractors can claim we purposely missed anything which they may then imagine that we cannot answer.
At the beginning of his chapter on “The Serpent”, we have already discussed most of the points made by Charles Weisman where he had presented a list of uses of the words satan and devil as they are found throughout the Scriptures. His biggest mistake, in my opinion, was his failure to distinguish between these words where they appear as simple nouns or adjectives or where they appear as a Substantive along with a definite article. The word diabolos is an adjective which can mean slanderer. But when it appears with a definite article it is used as a noun to describe a particular slanderer. Then where the definite article appears with a noun, it is referring to a known, particular instance of the given noun, rather than to just any instance. In other words, satan or a satan, without the definite article, describes anyone who at one point or another may be an adversary, but the satan, with the definite article, describes a particular and already known entity which is an adversary. Weisman exploited his examples of the use of these words by not explaining that difference. So thus far in his arguments in this chapter, Weisman has lied by omission.
So where we left off, we will repeat the last item in Weisman’s list of examples, because we did not discuss it sufficiently:
Oppressive governmental authorities are the devil (Eph. 6:11,12; Rev. 2:10).
And this too is a lie, because it is an oversimplification. First, the children of Israel had sinned collectively, as it is described in 1 Samuel chapter 8, because they were to have no governmental authority at all, and when they insisted on a king, Yahweh told them that they had rejected Him as king, and therefore they would suffer under earthly kings. That suffering was not a decree of punishment, but rather, Yahweh was only telling them what the natural outcome of their decision was going to be.
However oppressive governmental authorities by themselves are not the devil. What Yahweh told the children of Israel would happen to them under a king, in 1 Samuel 8:11-18, had happened under Saul, David, Solomon, and all their successors. But David and Solomon were not devils, and neither were their governments.
Because the children of Israel sinned, after they were put off in punishment in the Assyrian and Babylonian captivities, it was then prophesied, especially in Daniel, that they would be punished for a fixed period of time, and suffer under oppressive governments. One of those oppressive governments would be Assyria, another Babylon, another Persia, another that of the Greeks, and finally that of the Romans. Other prophecies in Daniel describe what would happen later, after the passing of Rome. Yet Cyrus, the King of Persia, while he was a part of one of those beast empires, was described as a “man more precious than fine gold ” by Yahweh Himself in Isaiah chapter 13. Then in chapters 44-45 we read, where Yahweh is first referring to Himself speaking of Cyrus: “44:28 That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid. 45:1 Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut…” [The reference to the gates is to the famous gates of Babylon, which were later opened to Cyrus without his having to broach the walls of the city, nearly 200 years after Isaiah had written.]
Now Cyrus conquered Babylon, as it says in Isaiah 45:1 he subdued many other of the surrounding nations, and he later died in his attempt to conquer the Scythians to the north, who were certainly a great number of the children of Israel in captivity. All of the nations which became subject to him or who fought with him would certainly have considered him as an oppressor. But the Word of God considered him to be anointed by God, a man more precious than gold who would serve the Will of Yahweh. This is only one more example where a so-called “oppressive governmental authority” is certainly not the devil, and once again Charles Weisman is exposed to be a blatant liar.
In fact, in Romans chapter 13 Paul described how governments serve the will of God as He uses them to punish disobedient men. In the provenance of God, even wicked governments are tools employed by Him. As Paul explains it, governments, whether they are good or wicked at any particular time, are serving the purposes of God Himself to punish the wicked or to reward the good, even if the rewards are not immediately perceived. So earthly governments were ordained by God, because the children of Israel had abandoned Him and sought an earthly king, but that does not mean that governments in general can be described as “the devil”, as we have seen governments which God Himself considered to be good, governments which He formed to do His Will.
Weisman cited Ephesians chapter 6, verses 11 and 12 where he said here that “oppressive governmental authorities are the devil”, but we must once again ask, did Paul actually write what Weisman concluded in this statement? In the King James Version those verses read: “11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” A precursory reading immediately reveals that Paul did not say that we wrestle against high places, but “against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Paul did not say that we wrestle against rulers but “against the rulers of the darkness of this world”. There is a difference between oppressive government and wicked men who introduce evil into the government.
Weisman also cited Revelation 2:10, but ignored verse 9, which we will not ignore: “9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. 10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.” Now if there are people who claim to be Judaeans but are not, who are they? And if they are a “synagogue of Satan”, meaning an assembly of Satan, are they not the Jews who were truly Edomites and Canaanites and were persecuting Christians at this very time? So it is not government which is the devil, but evil influences within government which may be devils.
Furthermore, writing Ephesians about 2 years after he wrote his epistle to the Romans, Paul was not contradicting himself with his statements in Romans chapter 13 where he said “1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.” Rather, Paul was teaching that earthly rulers were ordained by God, but that God-fearing Christians should not be in fear of those earthly rulers. Peter taught virtually the same thing, in fewer words, where he said in chapter 2 of his first epistle “13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.” [Peter mentioned a king in that passage, not an emperor, because he was writing in Babylon to Mesopotamians who were under the rule of the Parthians.] So Christ had also said “Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.” But at the same time, writing those lines in Ephesians Paul was teaching that God-fearing Christians would resist the evil within government by keeping obedience to God.
So it is not “oppressive governmental authorities” which are the devil, but it is certain men who come to power within governments who are often devils, or even men who have the power to control entire governments, as a particular devil offered to Christ, in Luke chapter 4 where we read: “5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.” The devil was a man who had the kingdoms of that society in his pocket, and we see the same is true of many devils of modern times, such as a Rothschild or a Sassoon or a Soros.
However Weisman proceeds as if at least most of his assertions could not be challenged, while we have challenged and discredited practically all of them, either by showing why they are not relevant to the issue, or by demonstrating that they prove our point and not his. So he concludes that:
Though a few of these usages may be debatable, most are not. The point is that the words “devil” or “satan” are obviously not given one single meaning, usage or identity throughout Scripture. But that is how Christendom has interpreted and used these words. Christians have used them to always mean a supernatural, god-like, invisible entity that causes evil, problems and tribulation upon man. This is also the concept employed by adherents of the Satanic Seedline doctrine, since that doctrine requires the existence of a supernatural satanic being.
Now Weisman is correct, that denominational Christendom and the Roman Catholic and Greek Orthodox churches have traditionally interpreted these words as he describes. They also often failed to distinguish the adjective and noun forms of these words from their use as a Substantive or as a proper noun. Many early Two-Seedline teachers followed these same mistakes, but that is not our fault, and of course we believe that Two-Seedline is true, although we differ from them in many ways.
But recognizing the instances where the adjective is used as a Substantive, and where the nouns accompanied by a Definite Article are used as a proper noun, specifying a particular entity, is necessary to determining how these words were actually intended to be understood by the authors of our Scriptures. If Weisman did understand those uses, which I doubt because he seems to only have known Greek and Hebrew words from concordances and a couple of lexicons, then he must have purposely ignored it for this book.
However even if we understand that there are tangible devils and a tangible Satan, we do not misinterpret these words. In the manner in which Weisman describes We do not think that the terms Devil or Satan “always mean a supernatural, god-like, invisible entity that causes evil, problems and tribulation upon man”. In fact, we do not think that those terms ever mean that, although from our Scriptures we must believe that there were entities called demons, which are disembodied wicked spirits. But while we recognize the possibility of disembodied spirits called demons, we do not rely on there any so-called disembodied spirits or demons for any aspect of our Two-Seedline profession.
Rather, we believe that the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil represents a race, or actually, what we today would call races, of so-called people who are physically descended from another race, called in the Scriptures by the term fallen angels, and the collective of those people are Satan and the Devil, while any one of them may be a Satan or a Devil at any given time. While Adamic men and women sin, it does not make them Satan, and while sometimes devils appear to do well, that does not make them children of God. We will discuss all of this further, as we reach the appropriate points in Weisman’s book.
Our point of view fully accounts for something which Weisman had himself professed, but which Weisman could not explain, and that is how a “serpent”, an intelligent individual with its own order of things and contrary to the order of God, was in the garden to seduce Eve in the first place. Our viewpoint, once all these things are studied, is the only point of view which is consistent with all Scripture. For now we shall continue.
Page 21:
It cannot conclusively be said that devil or satan must mean the serpent, or that the serpent must be interpreted as the traditional concept of satan. Therefore quoting the book of Revelation which states, “that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan” (Rev. 12:9; 20:2), is not definitive as to what the serpent is or can be called. Nor is it definitive as to who or what the devil or satan is or can be called. It is only one of many usages of these terms. If we say the serpent is a reptile, it cannot be said that “reptile” always means the serpent, as other things are also called reptile. It is a generic or comprehensive term like the term “devil.”
As we have explained, there are many times when men can be a satan, meaning an adversary, or a devil, meaning an accuser. But frequently in Scripture when the adversaries of God are referred to, they are called “the satan” or “the false accuser”, terms which refer to specific entities, and the serpent of Genesis is equated in the Revelation to a specific Satan and a specific accuser. Weisman is lying by omission by purposely failing to recognize this. The phrase ὁ διάβολος is not generic. It represents a specific class of people. So Peter used a definite article where he warned Christians that ὁ ἀντίδικος ὑμῶν διάβολος, or “your adversary the devil” walks about as a roaring lion, “seeking whom he may devour.” Peter was certainly not referring to “your adversary the flesh”, but he was referring to fleshly devils. In fact, we mentioned in our last presentation where Luke identified a spirit-demon with the words ὁ διάβολος, in Acts chapter 10, and if a spirit-demon can be a devil, as that passage in Luke proves, then Weisman is dead wrong in his assertion that the devil is the flesh.
Continuing with Weisman, where we are still on Page 21:
As to whether the serpent of Genesis 3 is a supernatural being, or evil angelic entity, commonly called the Devil or Satan, is another critical question. The Satanic Seedline proponents insist that it is so, but such a proposition has no support in the Pentateuch which has no reference at all to these terms, as the Bible scholar George Lamsa [citing his book, Old Testament Light, with which we also disagree] states:
“The term Satan or ‘devil’ was not known to the early Hebrews, nor does it occur in the early books of the Bible. Evidently, these terms were used later when the Israelites came in contact with the people who believed in two gods, the god of good and the god of evil. The Babylonians and the Persians accepted the doctrine of dualism, with two powers; good and evil.”
In Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 28, we read that God was known to cause every type of evil and problem — social, political, economical, agricultural, and personal. It is plainly obvious that upon reading such verses that the early Hebrews were not “dualists.” Thus Moses and the early patriarchs would not have thought of a supernatural entity of evil when they wrote the Genesis account of the serpent.
Now we left off one sentence short of the end of this paragraph, which we shall continue below, but first we must address this statement which Weisman attributes to George Lamsa. First, we are not dualists. We do not believe in a wicked power that is somehow equal to the power of God. We do not believe in a spiritual Satan who has power over the lives of men. But in the New Testament, men and women were indeed vexed and even possessed by demons, which were wicked spirits, and we have shown that in the books of Moses, the Pentateuch, the existence of those demons was recognized, and men who were taken to idolatry were worshipping such demons. Furthermore, another word translated as devil also referred to a hairy goat, and the Greeks used that same Hebrew word to describe men who were half goat, and who were given to revelry and sexual promiscuity, and evidently, as it is described in those same books of Moses, the people were also worshiping those.
Job is an early book of the Bible. The circumstances in which it was written, the descriptions of the surrounding tribes, and the genealogy of one of its principle characters, who was named “Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram” all date the life of Job to the early Judges period. Yet in Job, Satan is indeed used with a definite article to denote a particular adversary, and not just a personal enemy of Job himself. So George Lamsa, like Charles Weisman, is also a liar. Before the time of David, and long before the Babylonian exile, Satan, demons, and earthly devils, or satyrs, were all mentioned in Scripture. Now Weisman continues with this lie and says:
But Hebrew theology changed at the Babylonian Exile:
“In pre-exilic Hebrew thought the figure of Satan was entirely unknown. The absolute monotheism of normative Hebraism affirmed that there was only one divine power, one God, and, in purposed refutation of the dominant Persian dualism of the day, that He was the creator of both light and darkness, the source of evil as well as good (Isa. 45:6-7). But to the popular Hebrew mind of that day dualism seemed to solve conveniently one of the baffling problems of existence, the problem of good and evil, and so, contrary to the tenets of official Hebraism, evolved the figure of Satan, patterned obviously after the Zoroastrian power of evil, Ahriman. Actually Satan never had any place in the theology of normative Hebraism.” [Citing An Encyclopedia of Religion, edited by Vergilius Ferm and published in 1945.]
First, to believe this is to believe that our Bibles are a lie, that post-exilic Hebrew Scriptures are worthless because they adopted concepts which they borrowed from pagan nations, and that the New Testament is worthless for that same reason. So essentially, Charles Weisman is as much a Jew as the average Rabbi Shekelstein, because to him the Bible is not Scripture, it is not the Word of God, but rather it is some sort of politically manipulated ploy. No wonder Weisman dismisses or corrupts many of the words of Christ in his assault on Two-Seedline.
The recognition of a tangible Satan is not the recognition of a divine power, and the recognition of demons, something which Moses also recognized, does not necessitate any profession that demons are also divine – even if in their own use of the term, the ancient Greeks were referring to what they considered to be lesser gods. But in reality, Weisman is creating straw man arguments by which he will ultimately foist his devil-is-the-flesh heresy, thereby persuading us that we are all the same, because there is no such thing as devils in the flesh.
So his lie continues:
There also is little that can be used to support an evil, supernatural being called “Satan” in the Old Testament. The satan in Job never had any power of its own to afflict Job. Rather this satan asked God that certain things be done to him and God did them (Job 2:3-5,10). When God asked this satan where he came from, he said he came from “walking up and down” in the earth (1:7). He did not say he was “cast out of heaven,” but inferred he was some man who was simply an adversary of Job and God.
Here again Weisman is lying. In Job chapter 1, Satan had complained that God protected Job. So Satan challenged God and said “11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.” In response to that challenge, we read: “12 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.” So the Sabeans, a formerly Semitic arab tribe immediately raided Job’s estate. Then where it says in verse 16 that “the fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them”, that is only how the servant of Job himself had interpreted the event. Then in turn, the Chaldaeans raided Job’s estate. Perhaps after departing from the presence of God, Satan had gone off to hire both the Sabeans and then the Chaldaeans to do so.
Then in Job chapter 2 Satan is still vexed by Job’s righteousness, in spite of what he suffered, and Satan once again challenged God. But where God said “although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause”, we only see an admission that all things are in the hands of God in spite of the fact that this Satan was an adversary to God. So Satan challenged God again, and we read: “ 6 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life. 7 So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown. 8 And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself withal; and he sat down among the ashes.”
Satan, not God, had smitten Job with boils. That does not make Satan a god, but rather, even the sorcerers of Egypt could turn staffs into snakes before Moses and Aaron. Just how Job had been smitten with the boils we are not informed, but perhaps Satan hired a doctor to give Job a vaccine. What type of sorcery Satan may have used is immaterial. So Weisman tells only half the story, and he refuses to see that Satan is a permanent adversary to God and that this is an account of how Satan challenged God to test the fate of Job, and God accepted the challenge, if for no other reason than we may have this record and learn from the fate of Job.
Why did Weisman not consider that God never admonished Satan to keep his law, to love his “brother” Job and not to envy him or covet his wife or his goods? But the presence of Satan, a permanent adversary to God, a man walking to and fro on the earth, is only explained by our Two-Seedline belief, and there is much that Weisman did not consider, or he purposely avoided any such consideration.
Page 23:
It is clear from Scripture that all the evil, problems, afflictions, and troubles of a supernatural nature or origin that came upon Israel in the Old Testament were done by God, not a supernatural satan or devil. What, then, would be the need or purpose for the existence of such an entity?
Of courser, we do not claim that the devil is supernatural, but we know that the “devil” is representative of a race of people who are opposed to God. In the Revelation they are described as a race of angels, or fallen angels, who rebelled against God. While heaven is not necessarily the sky, if angels fell from heaven and in Job Satan is walking around on the earth, then that adversary is merely a representative from that race of angels. They can indeed be traced through Scripture, and we will do that as this series of presentations proceeds.
Here Weisman cites for support Isaiah 42:24; 45:7; 54:16; Jeremiah 11:11; 18:11; Proverbs 16:4; and Psalms 90:3. We will briefly review each of these Scriptures.
Isaiah 42:24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law.
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Isaiah 54:16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
Jeremiah 11:11 Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them.
Jeremiah 18:11 Now therefore go to, speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I frame evil against you, and devise a device against you: return ye now every one from his evil way, and make your ways and your doings good.
First, none of these passages forebode supernatural affliction upon Israel, so Weisman has yet another straw man argument. Rather, they are all warning that Israel would suffer for their sins, and it was the Assyrians and Babylonians, along with some of the other surrounding nations, whom Yahweh had brought against Israel in order to effect their punishment for sin.
In reference to these five passages, Weisman does not even ask the identity of the spoilers and robbers. He uses them to try to prove that all evil comes from God, but that is not true. There is evil which God uses to effect His Will in the world, which is evil in the eyes of men, but good in the eyes of God. Going back to our example of Cyrus, Yahweh said of him “whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings”. Now to Yahweh, Cyrus’ actions would be good. But if one were a conquered Babylonian or Assyrian, would they be good then?
Likewise, Yahweh told the children of Israel to kill all of the Canaanites, to drive them out of their lands. When they failed, He said, in Numbers chapter 33: “55 But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell.”
Where He also warned them, in Deuteronomy chapter 31, we see how they would be pricks in their eyes: “16 And the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the gods of the strangers of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.”
From that early time the Canaanites were a source of vexation to the children of Israel, however we understand that to be another manifestation of the enmity between the two seeds of Genesis 3:15, because the Canaanites are in part descended from Kenites and Rephaim, and other races which were not of Adam. In Judges chapter 3, we see a list of the places from where the children of Israel had failed to drive out the Canaanites.
So when the children of Israel sinned to the point that they were put off in punishment, Yahweh used those other races and nations to effect that punishment, and every one of these Scriptures which Weisman has cited relate to that punishment. While it is evil in the eyes of men, it is nevertheless good in the eyes of God, who said in Amos chapter 3: “2 You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.”
There is evil which is only evil in the eyes of men, as Yahweh God uses wicked men, men who have no capacity to be anything but wicked, like the Satan in Job, to punish the good people, His people, when they sin. So Weisman did not consider the nature of the robbers, or the nature of the Canaanites, or of any of the vehicles which Yahweh has employed to punish the children of Israel. The Babylonians, who were Chaldaeans, and the Assyrians certainly were created by Him. Yet Yahweh used Babylonians and Assyrians to punish the Israelites.
Some men who sin have an opportunity for repentance, and here Weisman himself cited Psalm 90 where it says: “3 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.” Yahweh sends men off into their apostasy, and Yahweh calls on them to repent. But the Satan of Job was never called on to repent in spite of his hatred and envy of Job. Satan never had any opportunity to be a Christian. So some men do not have an opportunity for repentance, and all they do is evil even if Yahweh uses their evil to effect His Will, and here Weisman also cited Proverbs chapter 16 where it says: “4 The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.”
These are the same entities who are used as a scourge against the children of Israel, to correct them. He is using them as a scourge against the children of Israel today, as they are the flood which the Serpent has sent out of its mouth in order to persecute the seed of the Woman. But the wicked are never corrected. Instead, in Matthew chapter 25 we are informed that all of the so-called goat nations have their destiny in “everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels”. Then in the Revelation and in the epistles of Jude and Peter we see an entire class of people who face this same destiny. Jude and Peter both explain that these men who infiltrated Christian assemblies and corrupted them were ordained such a destiny “before of old”, but that they would be among Christian congregations taking advantage of Christians and their blessings.
Yahweh certainly did make the wicked for the day of evil. Yahweh created the “angels that left their first estate”, and Yahweh must have foreseen what they would do after their rebellion. But their rebellion is not from God, and He cannot be blamed for their sin. So there is evil in the eyes of men, and then there is true evil, which is rebellion against God that cannot be repented of, the unforgivable sin of corrupting His creation – the sin of racer-mixing. Paul explained that Esau could not inherit the blessing because he was a fornicator, a race-mixer, in Hebrews chapter 12. So in the end, they shall all be destroyed. Two-Seedline is true, and Weisman is purposely obscuring the issues in order to keep it from men.
But while Yahweh takes credit and responsibility for His Creation, He Himself cannot be blamed for their sins. He cannot be forced to accept the outcome of their sins. For that reason Paul had written in that same chapter of Hebrews that “7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? 8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.” Chastisement is not merely suffering, but it is suffering handed down from above in order that a son be corrected. It was Yahweh’s purpose to correct Job, to allow Satan to punish Job for Job’s correction. But Satan himself was not corrected in the process, Satan was still Satan. Bastards have no opportunity for redemption. The bastard nations are all goats destined for the Lake of Fire, the same fate awaiting the devil and his angels.
Once you realize that there are two different groups of nations in the world, with different origins and destinies, there is no choice but to admit that Two-Seedline is true. Except for the Sheep and the Goats, we have not even yet discussed all the other parables and sayings of Christ which prove this, waiting to get to Weisman’s discussion of some of them.

862 | If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. (Deuteronomy 21:18-19)
Women and the Image of God
In most places and in much of human history, women have faced more discrimination and hardship than men, but wherever Christianity has gone, women . Because men and women complete each other and share the image of God, we treat women with honor.
Protecting the Rights of Women (Deut. 21:10-21)
Deut. 21:10-14. Captives. The Israelites did not have the resources to maintain POW camps, so captives were distributed among the victors as workers. Take her as your wife. Unlike in other Bronze Age cultures where male captors were allowed to abuse female servants, in Israel, if a captor wanted a female POW, he had to marry her and respect her rights. Shave her head. The woman was allowed to mourn the loss of her family before marriage. Let her go. If the couple divorces, the man has to give the woman her freedom.
21:15-17. Two wives. Polygamy was not God’s ideal, but it was allowed as a means of expanding the family and protecting women. Americans marry for happiness; ancients married for survival. Bigger families had a greater chance of survival. Polygamy was a form of . Rights of the firstborn. To prevent one’s estate from being diminished by constantly dividing it between heirs, the bulk of the inheritance stayed with the firstborn male (called primogeniture). A polygamous man could not give his inheritance to a son just because he favored that boy’s mother.
21:18-21. Stubborn and rebellious son. Children owe their parents obedience and honor, and a culture that consistently dishonors its parents . Father and mother. Mothers are to be honored as well as fathers—a remarkable law in an age where women were largely invisible.
Thinking Aloud
Women in ancient Israel were generally wards of men, but one should not assume that they resented this arrangement or that it made them weak. The women of ancient Israel were .
Many OT laws about marriage sound strange to us, but they are actually legal protections for women against abuse. If we are to understand these laws, we should read them in the cultural milieu of the Bronze Age.
Jesus teaches us that many OT laws about marriage were made in concession to human weakness. God’s standard for marriage is one man and one woman committed to each another for life (Matt. 19:1-9).
Women are partners with men in the work of the Gospel. In the NT, women prophesied (Acts 21:7-9), prayed (Acts 1:14), taught (Acts 18:24- 26), hosted church (Col. 4:15), served as missionaries (Rom. 16:3), and appear to have served as deacons (Rom. 16:2).
Biblical Ways to Treat a Woman
If you are a child, (Deut. 5:16; Eph. 6:1-3).
If you are an older woman, train younger women to live by Christian virtues (Titus 2:3-5).
If you are a man, to see in women the holy image of God (1 Thess. 4:3-6).
Be considerate of women (1 Peter 3:7).
Treat women with respect (1 Peter 3:7).
Practice with women (Eph. 5:21).
Encourage women in ministry (Mark 14:6-9; Rom. 16:3-5).
Bless women and praise them (Prov. 31:28).
Love women as Christ loves the church (Eph. 5:25-29).
Recognize the beauty of men and women jointly sharing in the inheritance of God’s grace (Gen. 1:26-27; 1 Pet. 3:7; 1 Cor. 11:12; Gal. 3:28).
The OT Laws: Not as Strange as they Seem
OT laws are based on timeless precepts, but the individual statues of the OT address circumstances unique to ancient Israel.
Many OT laws presume the social system of wardship, where people submitted to others for protection and provision (see p. 43). Wardship was a necessary social system for survival in the harsh days of the Bronze Age, but for Americans wardship can be difficult to appreciate.
When compared to the laws of other Bronze Age cultures, the laws of the OT were liberating and humane. Most laws have to do with protecting the rights of others.
Christ fills full the OT law, and only in Christ can we find the precept of a law.
Many OT statutes were offered as concessions for the fallenness of humanity. This includes marriage laws. (Matt. 19:8).
Many OT laws are casuistic (“what to do if”) rather than apodictic (“moral absolutes”). Casuistic laws do not necessarily approve of actions; they only describe what to do if an action should occur.
Just because the OT relates an event from Israelite history doesn’t mean God approved of the event. Some OT stories are not intended to be role model stories.
If you find OT laws strange, consider some of the laws of the U.S. In America, federal law provides hundreds of millions of tax-payer dollars for organizations that specialize in killing babies. Whose laws are barbaric? |
863 | Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you, revile you, and defame you on account of the Son of Man.
Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ancestors did to the prophets.
But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.
Woe to you who are full now, for you will be hungry.
Woe to you who are laughing now, for you will mourn and weep.
Woe to you when all speak well of you, for that is what their ancestors did to the false prophets.
But I say to you that listen, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you. If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also; and from anyone who takes away your coat do not withhold even your shirt. Give to everyone who begs from you; and if anyone takes away your goods, do not ask for them again. Do to others as you would have them do to you. ”

A Different Interpretation
Read Eugene Peterson’s interpretation of Luke’s Beatitudes and see if it shakes loose a new understanding for you.
From The Message:
You’re blessed when you’ve lost it all.
God’s kingdom is there for the finding.
You’re blessed when you’re ravenously hungry.
Then you’re ready for the Messianic meal.
You’re blessed when the tears flow freely.
Joy comes with the morning.
“Count yourself blessed every time someone cuts you down or throws you out, every time someone smears or blackens your name to discredit me. What it means is that the truth is too close for comfort and that that person is uncomfortable. You can be glad when that happens—skip like a lamb, if you like!—for even though they don’t like it, I do . . . and all heaven applauds. And know that you are in good company; my preachers and witnesses have always been treated like this.
But it’s trouble ahead if you think you have it made.
What you have is all you’ll ever get.
And it’s trouble ahead if you’re satisfied with yourself.
Your self will not satisfy you for long.
And it’s trouble ahead if you think life’s all fun and games.
There’s suffering to be met, and you’re going to meet it.
“There’s trouble ahead when you live only for the approval of others, saying what flatters them, doing what indulges them. Popularity contests are not truth contests—look how many scoundrel preachers were approved by your ancestors! Your task is to be true, not popular.
“To you who are ready for the truth, I say this: Love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst. When someone gives you a hard time, respond with the energies of prayer for that person. If someone slaps you in the face, stand there and take it. If someone grabs your shirt, giftwrap your best coat and make a present of it. If someone takes unfair advantage of you, use the occasion to practice the servant life. No more tit-for-tat stuff. Live generously. “Here is a simple rule of thumb for behavior: Ask yourself what you want people to do for you; then grab the initiative and do it for them!
Love your enemies
Is there anyone giving you a hard time lately? Maybe you wouldn’t call them an enemy – or maybe you would – but someone who is on your nerves or making life more difficult than it needs to be; someone who is unkind or unhelpful to you or to the world as you understand it?
How can you love them? Is there something nice you can do for them? A gesture of friendship or of cooperation? What prayer could you offer for them?
Something to Wonder
Blessings and Woes
Once again, Jesus flips things upside down from what common sense would have us believe – hunger brings joy and plenty bring suffering.
Is there a time in your life when things felt flipped upside down like this? A time when it looked like you had reason to be sad but instead were joyful or a time when it looked like you should be joyful but instead were sad? What was the situation?
You want me to do what!?
The to-do list at the end of this passage is pretty daunting – there is a lot of self-sacrifice and counter-cultural responses being asked of us.
Which of those things seem most difficult to you? Why?
Which seem most possible? Why?
Do any of those things seem simply wrong or irresponsible? If so, which and why?

A Pharisee and a tax collector walk into a temple…
The Story
October 27, 2019
20th Sunday after Pentecost
Luke 18:9-14
Jesus also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and regarded others with contempt:
“Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee, standing by himself, was praying thus, ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people: thieves, rogues, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give a tenth of all my income.’ But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even look up to heaven, but was beating his breast and saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’ I tell you, this man went down to his home justified rather than the other; for all who exalt themselves will be humbled, but all who humble themselves will be exalted.”
Something to Do
Be merciful to me, a sinner
The Orthodox Church has a tradition called the prayer walk. It is, quite simply, walking while praying in time with your steps. The prayer used most traditionally is called the Jesus prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner. The prayer reminds us of our fallibility, our reliance on Jesus, and Jesus’ faithfulness.
Go for a prayer walk and see how it feels to use the traditional prayer. You can, of course, create your own short prayer to accompany you on your walk.
Embodying the Story
Read the story – either out loud or silently. When you read the Pharisee, hold your body the way you imagine him standing. How does this posture make you feel? If you were talking to someone (like, say, God), what would you be communicating? When have you held your body this way? Why?
When you read the tax collector, hold your body the way you imagine him standing. Beat your chest like he does. How does this posture make you feel? What are you communicating? When have you held your body this way? Why?
Something to Wonder
Look in the Mirror
An interesting question to bring to any Bible story but, perhaps, especially to parables is this: Who am I in this story? The answer you give to that question might change every time you read the story or you may find that you are persistently the same character.
Take a good look at yourself in the mirror of this parable. Are you the self-satisfied Pharisee or the tax collector desperate for God’s help? In what way?
What is it like seeing yourself in the parable?
All who exalt themselves will be humbled…
This feels like an interesting text for the week after the election we just experienced. What lessons would you draw from Jesus’ story for us as citizens? What lessons would you like to share with the various politicians that have been called to service?

Read the Bible. Outloud.
The Story
October 20, 2019
19th Sunday after Pentecost
2 Timothy 3:14-4:5
But as for you, continue in what you have learned and firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it, and how from childhood you have known the sacred writings that are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,so that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work.
In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I solemnly urge you: proclaim the message; be persistent whether the time is favourable or unfavourable; convince, rebuke, and encourage, with the utmost patience in teaching. For the time is coming when people will not put up with sound doctrine, but having itching ears, they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander away to myths. As for you, always be sober, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, carry out your ministry fully.
Gospel Reading: Luke 18:1-8
Something to Do
Proclaim the Message
Our baptismal vows include the promise to proclaim, in word and deed, the Good News of God in Christ? Fulfilling this promise requires us to know what that Good News is – and each of us will have a slightly different answer.
Whatever our answer, though, we are called to proclaim the message – not whisper or suggest or allude to the message. Proclaim it. Your challenge this week is to find a way to do that.
Bonus points if you tell someone from your church community about what you tried and how it felt!
More proclaiming…but less daunting
Choose a Bible passage you really love and proclaim it. This is more than just reading it out loud – it’s about reading it out loud because it’s important and exciting and good news. Read it in such a way that any one who hears you will be drawn to actually listen.
And again with the bonus points: commit it to memory! Something very interesting happens when you memorize even a short passage (more than a verse – it needs to have some sweep) and proclaim it from heart.
Something to Wonder
All scripture is inspired by God and is useful…
How do you react to this claim? Are there parts of scripture that make this hard to believe? If so, which ones and why? How do you explain their inclusion in the Bible?
If you happily embrace this claim, how would you explain your feelings and ideas to a fellow Christian who did not?
Be persistent
Who are the persistent evangelists who have shaped you, patiently teaching and guiding you to deeper understanding and greater faith?
Who are the persistent evangelists of our age and what is their message? Are they teaching truth or just telling stories people want to hear?
What is the message God has entrusted to you? Have you been persistent in sharing it?

One Thankful Samaritan Leper
The Story
October 13, 2019
18th Sunday after Pentecost
Thanksgiving Weekend
Luke 17:11-19
On the way to Jerusalem Jesus was going through the region between Samaria and Galilee. As he entered a village, ten lepers approached him. Keeping their distance, they called out, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” When he saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were made clean. Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice. He prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him. And he was a Samaritan. Then Jesus asked, “Were not ten made clean? But the other nine, where are they? Was none of them found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” Then he said to him, “Get up and go on your way; your faith has made you well.”
Something to Do
Prostrate Yourself
Prostrating yourself (lying face down on the ground) is not something we do very often. It’s a very dramatic gesture which takes some effort to execute and leaves us very vulnerable and pretty uncomfortable. It signifies an intensity of emotion and a complete self-giving, whether in service or in gratitude or in despair. In this week’s Gospel, the healed Samaritan prostrates himself before Jesus as an act of radical gratitude.
Prostration is sometimes used liturgically. In some diocese, ordinands prostrate themselves during the prayers that come right before they are ordained. In some churches, the clergy prostrate themselves at the beginning of the Good Friday service during a time of silent prayer.
I don’t think we are going to introduce prostration into our liturgy at Ascension but you could try it out during a time of private prayer (or have your kids try it out while you say a prayer of thanksgiving and/or dedication). It will probably feel silly at first but hold on for a little and see what happens. What other feelings rise within you? What does the prayer become?
Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back…
Sometimes, we don’t say thank you because we don’t notice the gifts we have been given. Spend some time this week taking stock of where you have experienced healing or growth. Say thank you to the people who have contributed to that gift. Say thank you to God (maybe while lying prostrate…)
Something to Wonder
Your faith has made you well
This is a familiar refrain in the Gospel healing stories but, in this story, it comes after the healing has been received which suggests that the wellness that has come through faith is about more than the physical healing.
In what ways has your faith made you well?
Ten Lepers
Imagine how the lepers felt when they saw Jesus coming into their village. They had obviously heard of him and knew he had a reputation as a powerful healer. I wonder if they were sceptical or hopeful or nervous or…
And how did they feel when all he did was tell them to go and show themselves to the priest. And when they realized that they were healed?
What do you think the 9 lepers who did not return to Jesus did?

Faith the size of a mustard seed – the example of St. Francis
The Story
October 6, 2019
17th Sunday after Pentecost
with a celebration of St. Francis
Luke 17:5-10
The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” The Lord replied, “If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you. Who among you would say to your slave who has just come in from plowing or tending sheep in the field, ‘Come here at once and take your place at the table’? Would you not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supper for me, put on your apron and serve me while I eat and drink; later you may eat and drink’? Do you thank the slave for doing what was commanded? So you also, when you have done all that you were ordered to do, say, ‘We are worthless slaves; we have done only what we ought to have done!’”
Something to Do
So just how big is a mustard seed?
The grocery store can help us out with this question. Stop by the spice aisle this week and take a look at the real thing.
I bet your faith is at least that big. Imagine the things you can do!
We have done only what we ought to have done.
How often do we want praise for doing what we are supposed to do? How often do we want to make what we are supposed to do into something more complicated or mysterious than it really is?
As our observation of the Season of Creation draws to a close, make a list of things you ought to do in order to care for the world God made. Now do them.
Might it actually be that simple?

Responding to God’s Call – St Francis style
The Feast of St. Francis is on October 4th so we are going to remember his example of fearless faithfulness this Sunday. Francis heard God calling him to a new way of life that connected him deeply to creation, to people who were poor and vulnerable, and to worship…and Francis responded with a kind of wild abandon that continues to inspire us.
What do you think that kind of response feels like?
How does imagining it make you feel?
Exhilarated? Scared? Ashamed? Eager?
Can you think of other people who model this fearless faithfulness?
What do their lives look like?
What would your life look like if you embraced this kind of fearless faithfulness?
From Mustard Seeds to Worthless Slaves
Jesus seems to be rambling a little in this passage – what’s the connection between the mustard seed of faith and the slaves who just do what they ought to do and expect no thanks?
I think it might be “Just do it”. The disciples ask for Jesus to increase their faith and he seems to be telling them they have all the faith they need – since all they need is faith the size of a mustard seed. Then he wonders why they expect to be served by the one whom they are supposed to be serving instead of just getting on with what they need to do.
They have the faith they need. They have the job they need. They just need to do it.
What do you need to do?

All My Relations and the Canticle of St. Francis
The Indigenous teaching of “all my relations” is the insight that all life is related to all life – and not only in a technical or mechanistic way. All of creation is connected like a family is connected. The same life force flows through all. The same love flows through all. We are all related. This insight is revealed in the language often used by Indigenous elders and teachers, naming rocks and waters and sun and moon as grandmothers and grandfathers, aunties and uncles, brothers and sisters
This teaching is not foreign to western Christian thought – although it has often been ignored or diminished. St. Francis wrote a hymn that celebrates the great family to which we belong in creation.
The Canticle of the Sun was written around 1224, in an Italian dialect, and is thought to be among the first (and maybe the very first) work of literature to be written in Italian. |

867 | In a blog post, the web search start-up firm said that it would pay partners when “their content is used to directly answer a Neeva customer’s query”
In another break from search giant Google, which for years has faced criticism for not remunerating publishers, web search start-up Neeva said on Thursday that it would share at least 20 per cent of its sales with content partners such as Quora and Medium.
The revenue-split plan reflects a growing trend among technology companies as they face regulatory scrutiny over their outsized market power relative to content producers.
In a blog post, the web search start-up firm said that it would pay partners when “their content is used to directly answer a Neeva customer’s query”. It added to Reuters that fees would be based on “a combination of impression and unique value”.
After Sridhar Ramaswamy, Google’s former senior vice president for ads, grew disillusioned with ad-laden search results pages, the web search start-up firm was co-founded by him in the year 2019. Neeva, unlike Google, goes ad-free by charging users $5 a month. Results mostly come from Microsoft Corp’s Bing, though users also can search some personal files.
Neeva will display an in-depth excerpt and compensate the partner when subscribers’ questions are best answered by information on question-and-answer forum Quora or blog network Medium.
Quora and Medium told Reuters they would pass some revenue onto their contributors.
The web search start-up firm told Reuters that requirements to become a partner would be set as the program expands. Partner relationships will not affect ordering of results, Neeva added.
For pulling similar snippets without payment, Newspapers and reference tools have criticized Google. Google for years has said websites benefit because previews lead to visitors, who can be shown ads or upsold.
Still, Google last year, in a first-of-its-kind content licensing scheme for the company, announced $1 billion in funding for news publications.
The web search start-up firm in a blog criticized older services for long failing to support content firms.
“When creators aren’t rewarded for creating great content, they are not motivated to create it, and we all suffer”, it said.

869 | Situated on the River Isar near the Bavarian Alps, Munich, the capital of Bavaria is Germany’s third-largest and one of the most beautiful cities this country has to offer. It started as a monastery and developed into a settlement that allowed monks to establish a market for trading goods. After that, the settlement continued to grow into the city that it is today. The past that the city had is still visible today, and you can witness it from Munich’s medieval walls and old gates. One of the most visited places is the historic inner city called Marienplatz, which is a large and open square and the focal point of Munich. If you are planning a vacation during the winter season, make sure to visit the world-class ski resorts near Munich.
Munich is also known for its vibrant markets, stunning churches, outstanding palaces and museums and seasonal festivals like Oktoberfest, Starkbierfest and Kocherlball. The city has over 80 art museums filled with masterpieces where you can find ancient sculptures and cutting-edge contemporary designs. Due to the many attractions and places that this city has to offer, make sure to stay at least three days, so you will have enough time to see them all.
Take a Guided Bus Tour
If you don’t have three days and you are in town for a couple of hours, you can discover the top attractions on a guided bus tour using the famous Hop-on Hop-off Express Circle Tour available 24h, or you can make your tour by taking the tram. The Express Circle Tour lasts one hour and visits the key-city-centre attractions. If you decide to take the tram, start your journey from the Central Station to the Ostbahnhof with tram No-19.
Stroll the New Town Hall
Built-in the neo-Gothic style and located in Marienplatz the New Town Hall (Neues Rathaus) is a significant attraction in Munich, so if you are a fan of architecture don’t miss the chance to visit the Neues Rathaus. The building is a one-of-a-kind work of art with spiral staircases, stained glass windows and six courtyards.
Ride The Famous Eisbach WaveThe Eisbach Wave is a human-made body of water, located in the centre of Munich. It is an exciting place where you can see people surfing and kayaking into the river, which is over a mile long. Eisbach River passes through the Englischer Garten.
Have a Picnic in the Peaceful Englischer Garten
Englischer Garten
The park begins right in the heart of Munich and covers a massive area of 370 hectares. Englischer Garten is more extensive than New York’s Central Park and features a lake, waterways and breathtaking greenery.
Ski Resorts near Munich
Located one hour and a half or less from the city centre of Munich, most of the ski resorts аrе accessible by train as well as many ski resorts throughout Europe. They also have decent snow from early November to April. Here are the two ski regions near Munich that are worth checking out.
Hit the Slopes in Garmisch-Partenkirchen
Garmisch-Partenkirchen
One of the most famous German Ski Resort is the renowned Garmisch-Partenkirchen. It is a beautiful place to visit even if you are not into skiing or snowboarding. There are a lot of activities to do like shopping, cross country skiing, sledging or you can sit in one of the many cafes or restaurants from where you can admire the breathtaking view. You can reach Garmisch-Partenkirchen from Munich Airport by bus, train and private airport transfer. Booking a private airport transfer is by far the best option because it will take you from the airport to your desired location. Check the price for a transfer from Munich Airport to Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
Enjoy a Beautiful Day in Kitzbühel
Kitzbühel is a family-friendly resort located in Austria that offers more than 30 ski routes and hundreds of kilometres of cross-country trails. It is one of the most charming ski resorts and the ideal place for free-riders. The ski resort is accessible from Munich Airport by train, bus and private airport transfer.

870 | The Indigenous Seed Growers Network sprouted from the pandemic, and is quickly evolving to help communities secure their own food systems for generations to come.

Growing up as a member of the Mohawk tribe, Kenny Perkins tended to his family’s garden with his siblings. They would practice traditional Mohawk gardening methods, including using fish guts as fertilizer and saving kernels from the white corn, but he didn’t know why.
“It’s a learned teaching. I was never really taught why we do things,” Perkins says. He wondered why they saved the corn silk, why some kernels were eaten and others were saved, and why they chose corncobs from specific parts of the field. Eventually, he probed his elders and peers with questions, and, now, years later, he uses what he learned as a professional seed saver and gardener working with the Akwesasne Task Force on the Environment in the Great Lakes Basin region of New York.
As a father and grandfather, Perkins is also able to teach his children and grandchildren about saving seeds—and he can respond to their questions with the answers he didn’t get growing up. He is also working with a new Indigenous seed exchange so other Native people can find the answers, too.
Within Indigenous and tribal food systems, the pandemic has prompted many to return to growing their own food. And as that interest has risen, it has also “illuminated the lack of seed at the community level,” says Rowen White, a member of the Mohawk tribe, an Indigenous seed steward, and organizer of the Regional Indigenous Seed Growers Cooperative.
In response, the cooperative, a project born out of the Native American Food Sovereignty Alliance, worked to address the growing need for seed. In the spring, the alliance led a seed drive and distributed 11,000 packets of seed to 270 different tribal communities.
Eventually, though, the need far exceeded the demand, and the seed supply ran short. That’s when White and others decided to turn to a cooperative model that would allow Native people to share information, knowledge, and traditional practices as well as seeds. Many tribes already host their own seed exchanges, but White and her colleagues felt that there was room to grow a shared, intertribal understanding of traditional seed practices.

In recent months, the cooperative has hosted a seed census—a process not dissimilar to the U.S. Census—which involves identifying where seeds are located and how much seed supply each community has access to. The second project is a detailed seed sovereignty map of the same communities.
The cooperative is an ambitious undertaking, and getting it off the ground—hiring people to work with tribes to engage in seed saving conversations and to build an online platform for information sharing among other needs—will take time and money. Jessika Greendeer, a seed keeper, member of the Ho-Chunk Nation and farm manager at Dream of Wild Health, a Minneapolis-based Native food sovereignty organization, says that the cooperative started with monthly phone calls. The calls between growers including Greendeer and White were intended to share information and best practices about the seeds and plants they were growing.

While the goal of the network in the early days was to “get seeds into hands of so many people,” as they move forward and expand into a cooperative model, Greendeer says that as it has grown, and they’ve begin to work toward intertribal connection, food security, and the co-creation of a system that will help propagate seeds and assist non-growers in the journey of rematriation.
White has spent years hearing from tribal communities and conducting listening sessions. In those sessions, she heard again and again that seed knowledge was held by just a few older people, and that there was not enough traditional seeds to really feed the community. In response, the cooperative has also built a seed sovereignty assessment toolkit for each community. The hope, says White, is to find out how they can “support [the tribe] and create regenerative economic development opportunities.”
Building Appreciation for Seed
The seed growers cooperative is an extension of the work White has been doing to build seed sovereignty over the past two decades. As a 17-year-old, she interned on a farm in Massachusetts, where she fell in love with and developed a sense of gratitude for the seeds.
Both White’s grandparents and great grandparents tended to their own farms—but disease, genocide, boarding schools, forced relocation, and the legacies of each pushed them away from land.
This displacement wasn’t an accident, it was an intentional effort on the part of colonizers who wanted the land for themselves, says White. “The impacts of colonization, acculturation, and relocation have deeply impacted our ability to be on the land.” She hopes that the seed cooperative will help “revive ancestral knowledge” and begin to repair some of the trauma associated with that forced disconnect. There’s a coevolution of humans and seeds, White adds, and the two are “intimately intertwined and change one another. [There’s a] cultural memory that surrounds these seeds.”

White grew up with the Mohawk creation story, which tells of a woman falling from the sky world to the ocean and bringing seeds with her to start a new world. She says there was an agreement between her ancestors and plants to co-evolve. “We would give up a little of our wildness and the plants would give up a little of their wildness,” White says. “We’re direct lineal descendants from the food that we eat.”
For that reasons, White explains, “We actually have to care for them as though they’re our relatives.” In reviving that relationship, White finds herself reflecting on the fact that—despite colonization, industrial agriculture, and genocide—“the seeds never gave up on their side of the agreement.”
And yet, she adds, “Many of us have forgotten to uphold our agreement to take care of the seeds.” In addition to building seed capacity across the nation and sharing knowledge, she says one of the most important aspects of the work is to ground oneself in the recognition that, “all of us eat because of the generosity of a seed. Part of this is remembering that we can’t abdicate that relationship to multinational corporations or to industry, monoculture, [or] corporate ag.”
Building Communal Capacity
Some seeds are easier to harvest than others, and growers know that they will have to eat fewer plants in order to save their seeds. This is knowledge that Greendeer didn’t have access to five years ago. Now, as a partner in the Seed Growers Cooperative and close friend of White’s, Greendeer says that harvesting seeds is a “balance of art and science together.”
Through her work at Dream of Wild Health, Greendeer has taught other Native growers how to observe and tend to each plant. To harvest lettuce seeds, for instance, a grower intentionally lets the plant produce flowers by keeping it in the ground past the point when you’d want to eat it. Green beans are different, Greendeer explains, you can wait for some beans on the plant to “dry down” and “still have plenty for eating.”
Saving the seeds for corn is a different process, says Rebecca Webster, a seed saver and farmer who lives on the Oneida Nation in Wisconsin. Webster says that when saving white corn, she looks for certain ideal characteristics such as where the seed sits, whether the cob is free of dents and dimples, and whether the cob has loose husks, before choosing to save it for seed.

The whole process takes a few months. “We cut off the knobby ends and we braid the cobs, and then we hang them up in the barn to dry,” Webster says. Once they’re dry, they remove some kernels to test in a moisture meter to ensure that they’re properly dried out. Then they remove the kernels from the middle of the cob—those will be the healthiest seeds to grow a new crop with.
Greendeer says by the end of 2020 she hopes to launch the seed census. Greendeer and White want to know what different communities are growing, and whether they already have active seed saving programs or would need to start one from scratch. So far, they have about 20 seed census takers signed up, ranging in age from 19 to 64.
The information will allow the cooperative to take stock, redistribute seeds, and ultimately protect the seed that’s out there. “Instead of one person growing a variety, we’ve got five people growing it and that’s just to help protect the seed,” says Greendeer. If it’s sitting in a jar on somebody’s shelf, on the other hand, it could get too old and fail to germinate when it’s planted. “It needs to be in the hands of many people for it to continue to just keep getting stronger and more resilient every year.”
A cooperative can also help communities adapt to contemporary conditions, such as the warming climate and more extreme weather, as well as some tribes’ lack of land, arable soil, or irrigation. White says that due to “significant land loss, we have to adapt these old traditions to new circumstances.”
The Indigenous Seed Growers Network has already modeled the kind of workshops the cooperative will scale up in the coming months, and White says that they’re in the process of fundraising to provide stipends to young farmers, interns who can package seeds, and pay for seed cleaning equipment such as screens and fanning mills.
Seed Sovereignty Heals Trauma
Seeds themselves may have survived their own trauma, says Elana Terry, a Ho-chunk chef based in Wisconsin. Terry recently received a bean in the mail from a seed steward in the Appalachian mountains that can be traced to the Ho-chunk from the early 1800s. “It was grown by Ho-chunks, then we were moved and that seed traveled with us during the move,” says Terry. The seeds were planted in their new home for generations before making it back to their original tribal lands. “After all this time, the seeds rematriated themselves home,” she says.
Greendeer holds a similar perspective. She says her work with seeds has pushed her to reflect on how she, as a grower, gets to witness the lifecycle of small yet powerful seeds. “That’s their sole purpose in life: to sacrifice themselves. To not only be food for humans and wildlife but also to reproduce again. And what’s so beautiful about [seed-saving] work is that you get to be a part of that.”
White says seed stewardship allows to connect with her identity as an Indigenous woman and mother more deeply. It also inspires her to ask, “What does it mean to be a good ancestor . . . and a responsible descendant at the same time?”

Great story. I love that this is being brought out more to all nations and generations.
I was told stories of the elders, who kept watch over caves that held seeds for the coming times.
This was back in the early 70’s .
It was the reign of terror times, when blood was left on the Rez and my bond began with the land and the sacred.
I teach regenerative organic farming and gardening in Hot Springs. I grow on my farm, other than my organic food crops ( all of which are donated to food banks in South Dakota),
I grow the sacred plants . I grow traditional sweetgrass from genetics that were found near a long ago trading post near the border of Colorado and Wyoming . Also a traditional tobacco strain from an area near where the Lakota spent time in Canada,
And heirloom Lakota Squash.
Also bear root and other traditional crops . I had a great harvest of seed last year from my bear root plants and have bear root drying most of the year.
Also Prairie Sage Seed and bundles.
I offer them at no charge as I was taught.
The sweetgrass seed is almost always sterile so I can send barefoot plants, and I’ve sent plants all over the world, and always have braids to share.
All Available to any tribal seed saving program.

878 | Clean Chaos is designed to share green living tips and resources, to help families have a safe, healthy and eco-friendly home.
Over recent years, I have begun taking small steps toward a healthier home & family by reducing the use of toxic chemicals, cooking more homemade meals and shopping smarter.
Let’s be real.
If you walked in my home right now, you wouldn’t see a perfectly pristine, dust-free, something-fermenting-on-the-counter environment.
And that’s ok, and I won’t feel guilty for it.
But I am willing to try new experiences and see what makes a good fit for my family.
As a Norwex Independent Consultant, I share in the company’s mission to improve quality of life by radically reducing chemicals in the home.
One less junky snack.
One less paper towel.
One less plastic water bottle.
It’s these small steps that can make a big impact, and when you have chaos in your life – from kids, pets, a crazy work schedule, not enough sleep and anything else life throws your way … you can feel a little bliss from knowing these small steps help your home to be a safer, cleaner environment. |

On May 6, 2019, twelve prisoners at the Red Onion and Wallens Ridge supermax prisons, who had each been in solitary confinement for between two and twenty-three years, filed this putative class-action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. The plaintiffs sued the Virginia Department of Corrections (VDOC) and the wardens of both Red Onion and Wallens Ridge under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The plaintiffs - represented by private counsel and the ACLU of Virginia - sought declaratory and injunctive relief in addition to damages. The plaintiffs claimed breach of an earlier settlement agreement and violations of the Fourteenth Amendment’s Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses, the Eighth Amendment, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The plaintiff alleged that VDOC implemented a renamed version of the “Phase Program,” which was supposedly shut down in an earlier settlement, that “warehoused” prisoners in solitary confinement without any opportunity to re-enter general population conditions.
The earlier settlement had ended the "Phase Program" at the Mecklenburg Correctional Center. A class action lawsuit, Brown v. Hutto, was filed in 1981, alleging inhumane conditions and constitutional violations by VDOC. A VDOC investigation revealed that Mecklenburg could not fill its solitary confinement beds with its own prisoners. Instead, the prison had solicited other prisons to refer their prisoners for solitary confinement at Mecklenburg. Unlike the Special Management Unit, which housed prisoners unlikely to be reintroduced to the general population, the "Phase Program" track was designed to allow solitary confinement prisoners to reenter the general population by earning "privileges" for good behavior. But in practice, prisoners were very rarely phased down and prison staff could revoke privileges without oversight or appeals. The parties settled the case in 1985, with VDOC agreeing to end the Phase Program and to not start a similar program in the future.
In this case, the Red Onion and Wallens Ridge prisoners alleged that the Step-Down Program was used to keep prisoners in solitary confinement in order to utilize solitary confinement space and justify the high cost of keeping both supermax prisons open. This program was alleged to be a new version of the Phase Program used at the since-demolished Mecklenburg facility. The prisoners alleged that staff at each facility were not trained or knowledgeable about the specific requirements of the Step-Down Program, leading them to keep prisoners in solitary confinement despite evidence that they should be stepped down to the general population. These decisions were not subject to meaningful review, and the review process was not appealable. The prisoners alleged this program caused significant mental and physiological harm to each of them and was implemented without any scientific basis.
On May 31, 2019, VDOC filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On June 14, 2019, the remaining defendants also filed a motion to dismiss. Both motions alleged that the plaintiffs failed to state a claim and that the court lacked subject matter jurisdiction over the case. As of October 2, 2019, District Judge Robert E. Payne has not issued a decision on either of these motions. The case is ongoing.
A documentary about the solitary confinement conditions of Red Onion can be found here.

A portrait of renowned percussionist Milford Graves, exploring his kaleidoscopic creativity and relentless curiosity. The film draws the viewer through the artist's lush garden and ornate home, into the martial arts dojo in his backyard and the laboratory in his basement - all of this just blocks from where he grew up in the housing projects of South Jamaica, Queens.
Graves tells stories of discovery, struggle and survival, ruminates on the essence of 'swing', activates electronic stethoscopes in his basement lab to process the sound of his heart, and travels to Japan where he performs at a school for children with autism, igniting the student body into an ecstatic display of spontaneous collective energy.
Official Selection at the SXSW Film Festival.
"You can get a lot of facts about Mr. Graves and his discography on the internet (and I recommend you do). This movie gives you, well, the man's heart, and it's a beautiful one." - Glenn Kenny, The New York Times |
890 | Like the other traditions I’ve been sharing on the site this month, Swedish Glogg — with its pungent, fruity, spicy smell — has always been an integral Christmas drink for my family. My parents had their own division of labor as they balanced four kids and their entertaining (my mother has always held a sit down dinner for 40 the weekend before Christmas… intimidating, I know!). Whereas my mom handled the cards, baking, and gift purchasing, my dad handled lights, some last minute gift wrapping with generous amounts of tape, and Swedish Glogg. My dad is not a recipe kind of guy. He threw in jugs of cheap red wine, cardamon, raisins, orange peel and a dose of who knows what else and it all just sort of worked out… Glogg was pretty much his secret brew and it was delicious.
What Christmas tradition did you experience as a child that you now celebrate in your own home? Comment to win a great prize!
My house, a bit different. My husband Marc follows recipes to the capital “T” and doesn’t leave anything up for grabs. So at my urging that he assume this responsibility, he found our family’s recipe online a few years back and has followed it precisely year after year, now venturing into a bit of personalization as they say…
That original recipe has evolved over time into Marc’s special brew. The original recipe appeared in the Chicago Tribune back in 1979 and was written by Craig Goldwyn.
Note to parents, glogg is not something to do with the kids because of the flaming brandy — unless they are a ways away.
Good luck and feel free to comment below with your questions for Marc (hope you don’t mind, honey).
Swedish Glogg Recipe (Makes about 2 gallons)
3 liters inexpensive dry red wine (go for cheap, bottled wine like Gallo)
3 liters inexpensive American port
2 bottles of inexpensive brandy ** can be flamed, see below **
12 cinnamon sticks
2 Tablespoons cardamom (whole) seeds
4 dozen whole cloves
Peel of three oranges
1 1/2 cups raisins
2 cups blanched almonds
4 cups sugar
Directions:
Pour the red wine and port into a stainless steel or porcelain kettle. Add cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, orange peel, raisins, and almonds. Warm gently, DO NOT BOIL.
Put the sugar in a pan and soak it with one bottle of brandy. Warm slowly over a low flame. You can FLAME this which makes it especially delicious by heating until very hot and lighting with a lit match. Make sure no one is afoot and nothing resides over the stove-top!!
Once the sugar and brandy have been caramelized, add to spiced wine mix, and cover. Then, leave on low heat for at least two hours — you can leave on for as long as 4-5 hours if you like and it will only get better.
I would recommend making this the day before your first holiday party, and then reheating on low two hours beforehand. The glogg will be even sweeter and more flavorful as the holiday season goes on, and you can keep this on your stove-top until it’s done!
Serve in mugs or small glass eggnog cups as soon as your guests arrive in from the outside. Your whole home will be warmed by this wonderful, historic Swedish drink.

For Chanukah my mom always made her own amazing yummy latkes. I make them just like her minus the hand grating of the potatoes….there is a little gadget called a food processor for shredding. But my mom doesn’t believe in that. She still grates her potatoes by hand every year.

I wanted to laugh out loud when I saw your post…have you ever set anything a flame??
I have too many times..and not on purpose.I have burnt my eyebrows twice while grilling.
Anyway, We always opened up a Christmas present on Christmas Eve and we do that with our kids every year. It is so hard for them to pick which one to open.

Before Christmas, my mom would dress in a white robe with a red sash and a head-wreath with candles and sing the Santa Lucia, a traditional Swedish holiday song. Then she would pass out home-baked cookies to all. We did this at home and also to friends and neighbors.

I guess if this is a tradition. we always would get together with my cousins and grandparents for Christmas and I always looked forward to it. I would help my grandmother Christmas morning fix breakfast and always looked forward to it. With my children we save a special day to gather with our famiy to celebrate with each other

What is COPPA?
COPPA, or the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, is a law in the United States requiring websites which can potentially collect information from minors under the age of 13 to have written parental consent or some other method of legal guardian acknowledgment, allowing the collection of personally identifiable information from a minor under the age of 13. If you are unsure if this applies to you as someone trying to register or to the website you are trying to register on, contact legal counsel for assistance. Please note that phpBB Limited and the owners of this board cannot provide legal advice and is not a point of contact for legal concerns of any kind, except as outlined in question “Who do I contact about abusive and/or legal matters related to this board?”.

Why can’t I register?
It is possible a board administrator has disabled registration to prevent new visitors from signing up. A board administrator could have also banned your IP address or disallowed the username you are attempting to register. Contact a board administrator for assistance.

I registered but cannot login!
First, check your username and password. If they are correct, then one of two things may have happened. If COPPA support is enabled and you specified being under 13 years old during registration, you will have to follow the instructions you received. Some boards will also require new registrations to be activated, either by yourself or by an administrator before you can logon; this information was present during registration. If you were sent an email, follow the instructions. If you did not receive an email, you may have provided an incorrect email address or the email may have been picked up by a spam filer. If you are sure the email address you provided is correct, try contacting an administrator.

Why can’t I login?
There are several reasons why this could occur. First, ensure your username and password are correct. If they are, contact a board administrator to make sure you haven’t been banned. It is also possible the website owner has a configuration error on their end, and they would need to fix it.

It is possible an administrator has deactivated or deleted your account for some reason. Also, many boards periodically remove users who have not posted for a long time to reduce the size of the database. If this has happened, try registering again and being more involved in discussions.
Top
I’ve lost my password!
Don’t panic! While your password cannot be retrieved, it can easily be reset. Visit the login page and click I forgot my password. Follow the instructions and you should be able to log in again shortly.
However, if you are not able to reset your password, contact a board administrator.
Top
Why do I get logged off automatically?
If you do not check the Remember me box when you login, the board will only keep you logged in for a preset time. This prevents misuse of your account by anyone else. To stay logged in, check the Remember me box during login. This is not recommended if you access the board from a shared computer, e.g. library, internet cafe, university computer lab, etc. If you do not see this checkbox, it means a board administrator has disabled this feature.
Top
What does the “Delete cookies” do?
“Delete cookies” deletes the cookies created by phpBB which keep you authenticated and logged into the board. Cookies also provide functions such as read tracking if they have been enabled by a board administrator. If you are having login or logout problems, deleting board cookies may help.

User Preferences and settings
How do I change my settings?
If you are a registered user, all your settings are stored in the board database. To alter them, visit your User Control Panel; a link can usually be found by clicking on your username at the top of board pages. This system will allow you to change all your settings and preferences.
Top
How do I prevent my username appearing in the online user listings?
Within your User Control Panel, under “Board preferences”, you will find the option Hide your online status. Enable this option and you will only appear to the administrators, moderators and yourself. You will be counted as a hidden user.
Top
The times are not correct!
It is possible the time displayed is from a timezone different from the one you are in. If this is the case, visit your User Control Panel and change your timezone to match your particular area, e.g. London, Paris, New York, Sydney, etc. Please note that changing the timezone, like most settings, can only be done by registered users. If you are not registered, this is a good time to do so.
Top
I changed the timezone and the time is still wrong!
If you are sure you have set the timezone correctly and the time is still incorrect, then the time stored on the server clock is incorrect. Please notify an administrator to correct the problem.
Top
My language is not in the list!
Either the administrator has not installed your language or nobody has translated this board into your language. Try asking a board administrator if they can install the language pack you need. If the language pack does not exist, feel free to create a new translation. More information can be found at the phpBB® website.
Top
What are the images next to my username?
There are two images which may appear along with a username when viewing posts. One of them may be an image associated with your rank, generally in the form of stars, blocks or dots, indicating how many posts you have made or your status on the board. Another, usually larger, image is known as an avatar and is generally unique or personal to each user.
Top
How do I display an avatar?
Within your User Control Panel, under “Profile” you can add an avatar by using one of the four following methods: Gravatar, Gallery, Remote or Upload. It is up to the board administrator to enable avatars and to choose the way in which avatars can be made available. If you are unable to use avatars, contact a board administrator.
Top
What is my rank and how do I change it?
Ranks, which appear below your username, indicate the number of posts you have made or identify certain users, e.g. moderators and administrators. In general, you cannot directly change the wording of any board ranks as they are set by the board administrator. Please do not abuse the board by posting unnecessarily just to increase your rank. Most boards will not tolerate this and the moderator or administrator will simply lower your post count.
Top
When I click the email link for a user it asks me to login?
Only registered users can send email to other users via the built-in email form, and only if the administrator has enabled this feature. This is to prevent malicious use of the email system by anonymous users.
Top
Posting Issues
How do I create a new topic or post a reply?
To post a new topic in a forum, click "New Topic". To post a reply to a topic, click "Post Reply". You may need to register before you can post a message. A list of your permissions in each forum is available at the bottom of the forum and topic screens. Example: You can post new topics, You can post attachments, etc.
Top
How do I edit or delete a post?
Unless you are a board administrator or moderator, you can only edit or delete your own posts. You can edit a post by clicking the edit button for the relevant post, sometimes for only a limited time after the post was made. If someone has already replied to the post, you will find a small piece of text output below the post when you return to the topic which lists the number of times you edited it along with the date and time. This will only appear if someone has made a reply; it will not appear if a moderator or administrator edited the post, though they may leave a note as to why they’ve edited the post at their own discretion. Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied.
Top
How do I add a signature to my post?
To add a signature to a post you must first create one via your User Control Panel. Once created, you can check the Attach a signature box on the posting form to add your signature. You can also add a signature by default to all your posts by checking the appropriate radio button in the User Control Panel. If you do so, you can still prevent a signature being added to individual posts by un-checking the add signature box within the posting form.
Top
How do I create a poll?
When posting a new topic or editing the first post of a topic, click the “Poll creation” tab below the main posting form; if you cannot see this, you do not have appropriate permissions to create polls. Enter a title and at least two options in the appropriate fields, making sure each option is on a separate line in the textarea. You can also set the number of options users may select during voting under “Options per user”, a time limit in days for the poll (0 for infinite duration) and lastly the option to allow users to amend their votes.
Top
Why can’t I add more poll options?
The limit for poll options is set by the board administrator. If you feel you need to add more options to your poll than the allowed amount, contact the board administrator.
Top
How do I edit or delete a poll?
As with posts, polls can only be edited by the original poster, a moderator or an administrator. To edit a poll, click to edit the first post in the topic; this always has the poll associated with it. If no one has cast a vote, users can delete the poll or edit any poll option. However, if members have already placed votes, only moderators or administrators can edit or delete it. This prevents the poll’s options from being changed mid-way through a poll.
Top
Why can’t I access a forum?
Some forums may be limited to certain users or groups. To view, read, post or perform another action you may need special permissions. Contact a moderator or board administrator to grant you access.
Top
Why can’t I add attachments?
Attachment permissions are granted on a per forum, per group, or per user basis. The board administrator may not have allowed attachments to be added for the specific forum you are posting in, or perhaps only certain groups can post attachments. Contact the board administrator if you are unsure about why you are unable to add attachments.
Top
Why did I receive a warning?
Each board administrator has their own set of rules for their site. If you have broken a rule, you may be issued a warning. Please note that this is the board administrator’s decision, and the phpBB Limited has nothing to do with the warnings on the given site. Contact the board administrator if you are unsure about why you were issued a warning.
Top
How can I report posts to a moderator?
If the board administrator has allowed it, you should see a button for reporting posts next to the post you wish to report. Clicking this will walk you through the steps necessary to report the post.
Top
What is the “Save” button for in topic posting?
This allows you to save drafts to be completed and submitted at a later date. To reload a saved draft, visit the User Control Panel.
Top
Why does my post need to be approved?
The board administrator may have decided that posts in the forum you are posting to require review before submission. It is also possible that the administrator has placed you in a group of users whose posts require review before submission. Please contact the board administrator for further details.
Top
How do I bump my topic?
By clicking the “Bump topic” link when you are viewing it, you can “bump” the topic to the top of the forum on the first page. However, if you do not see this, then topic bumping may be disabled or the time allowance between bumps has not yet been reached. It is also possible to bump the topic simply by replying to it, however, be sure to follow the board rules when doing so.
Top
Formatting and Topic Types
What is BBCode?
BBCode is a special implementation of HTML, offering great formatting control on particular objects in a post. The use of BBCode is granted by the administrator, but it can also be disabled on a per post basis from the posting form. BBCode itself is similar in style to HTML, but tags are enclosed in square brackets [ and ] rather than < and >. For more information on BBCode see the guide which can be accessed from the posting page.
Top
Can I use HTML?
No. It is not possible to post HTML on this board and have it rendered as HTML. Most formatting which can be carried out using HTML can be applied using BBCode instead.
Top
What are Smilies?
Smilies, or Emoticons, are small images which can be used to express a feeling using a short code, e.g. :) denotes happy, while :( denotes sad. The full list of emoticons can be seen in the posting form. Try not to overuse smilies, however, as they can quickly render a post unreadable and a moderator may edit them out or remove the post altogether. The board administrator may also have set a limit to the number of smilies you may use within a post.
Top
Can I post images?
Yes, images can be shown in your posts. If the administrator has allowed attachments, you may be able to upload the image to the board. Otherwise, you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.example.com/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor images stored behind authentication mechanisms, e.g. hotmail or yahoo mailboxes, password protected sites, etc. To display the image use the BBCode [img] tag.
Top
What are global announcements?
Global announcements contain important information and you should read them whenever possible. They will appear at the top of every forum and within your User Control Panel. Global announcement permissions are granted by the board administrator.
Top
What are announcements?
Announcements often contain important information for the forum you are currently reading and you should read them whenever possible. Announcements appear at the top of every page in the forum to which they are posted. As with global announcements, announcement permissions are granted by the board administrator.
Top
What are sticky topics?
Sticky topics within the forum appear below announcements and only on the first page. They are often quite important so you should read them whenever possible. As with announcements and global announcements, sticky topic permissions are granted by the board administrator.
Top
What are locked topics?
Locked topics are topics where users can no longer reply and any poll it contained was automatically ended. Topics may be locked for many reasons and were set this way by either the forum moderator or board administrator. You may also be able to lock your own topics depending on the permissions you are granted by the board administrator.
Top
What are topic icons?
Topic icons are author chosen images associated with posts to indicate their content. The ability to use topic icons depends on the permissions set by the board administrator.
Top
User Levels and Groups
What are Administrators?
Administrators are members assigned with the highest level of control over the entire board. These members can control all facets of board operation, including setting permissions, banning users, creating usergroups or moderators, etc., dependent upon the board founder and what permissions he or she has given the other administrators. They may also have full moderator capabilities in all forums, depending on the settings put forth by the board founder.
Top
What are Moderators?
Moderators are individuals (or groups of individuals) who look after the forums from day to day. They have the authority to edit or delete posts and lock, unlock, move, delete and split topics in the forum they moderate. Generally, moderators are present to prevent users from going off-topic or posting abusive or offensive material.
Top
What are usergroups?
Usergroups are groups of users that divide the community into manageable sections board administrators can work with. Each user can belong to several groups and each group can be assigned individual permissions. This provides an easy way for administrators to change permissions for many users at once, such as changing moderator permissions or granting users access to a private forum.
Top
Where are the usergroups and how do I join one?
You can view all usergroups via the “Usergroups” link within your User Control Panel. If you would like to join one, proceed by clicking the appropriate button. Not all groups have open access, however. Some may require approval to join, some may be closed and some may even have hidden memberships. If the group is open, you can join it by clicking the appropriate button. If a group requires approval to join you may request to join by clicking the appropriate button. The user group leader will need to approve your request and may ask why you want to join the group. Please do not harass a group leader if they reject your request; they will have their reasons.
Top
How do I become a usergroup leader?
A usergroup leader is usually assigned when usergroups are initially created by a board administrator. If you are interested in creating a usergroup, your first point of contact should be an administrator; try sending a private message.
Top
Why do some usergroups appear in a different colour?
It is possible for the board administrator to assign a colour to the members of a usergroup to make it easy to identify the members of this group.
Top
What is a “Default usergroup”?
If you are a member of more than one usergroup, your default is used to determine which group colour and group rank should be shown for you by default. The board administrator may grant you permission to change your default usergroup via your User Control Panel.
Top
What is “The team” link?
This page provides you with a list of board staff, including board administrators and moderators and other details such as the forums they moderate.
Top
Private Messaging
I cannot send private messages!
There are three reasons for this; you are not registered and/or not logged on, the board administrator has disabled private messaging for the entire board, or the board administrator has prevented you from sending messages. Contact a board administrator for more information.
Top
I keep getting unwanted private messages!
You can automatically delete private messages from a user by using message rules within your User Control Panel. If you are receiving abusive private messages from a particular user, report the messages to the moderators; they have the power to prevent a user from sending private messages.
Top
I have received a spamming or abusive email from someone on this board!
We are sorry to hear that. The email form feature of this board includes safeguards to try and track users who send such posts, so email the board administrator with a full copy of the email you received. It is very important that this includes the headers that contain the details of the user that sent the email. The board administrator can then take action.
Top
Friends and Foes
What are my Friends and Foes lists?
You can use these lists to organise other members of the board. Members added to your friends list will be listed within your User Control Panel for quick access to see their online status and to send them private messages. Subject to template support, posts from these users may also be highlighted. If you add a user to your foes list, any posts they make will be hidden by default.
Top
How can I add / remove users to my Friends or Foes list?
You can add users to your list in two ways. Within each user’s profile, there is a link to add them to either your Friend or Foe list. Alternatively, from your User Control Panel, you can directly add users by entering their member name. You may also remove users from your list using the same page.
Top
Searching the Forums
How can I search a forum or forums?
Enter a search term in the search box located on the index, forum or topic pages. Advanced search can be accessed by clicking the “Advance Search” link which is available on all pages on the forum. How to access the search may depend on the style used.
Top
Why does my search return no results?
Your search was probably too vague and included many common terms which are not indexed by phpBB. Be more specific and use the options available within Advanced search.
Top
Why does my search return a blank page!?
Your search returned too many results for the webserver to handle. Use “Advanced search” and be more specific in the terms used and forums that are to be searched.
Top
How do I search for members?
Visit to the “Members” page and click the “Find a member” link.
Top
How can I find my own posts and topics?
Your own posts can be retrieved either by clicking the “Show your posts” link within the User Control Panel or by clicking the “Search user’s posts” link via your own profile page or by clicking the “Quick links” menu at the top of the board. To search for your topics, use the Advanced search page and fill in the various options appropriately.
Top
Subscriptions and Bookmarks
What is the difference between bookmarking and subscribing?
In phpBB 3.0, bookmarking topics worked much like bookmarking in a web browser. You were not alerted when there was an update. As of phpBB 3.1, bookmarking is more like subscribing to a topic. You can be notified when a bookmarked topic is updated. Subscribing, however, will notify you when there is an update to a topic or forum on the board. Notification options for bookmarks and subscriptions can be configured in the User Control Panel, under “Board preferences”.
Top
How do I bookmark or subscribe to specific topics?
You can bookmark or subscribe to a specific topic by clicking the appropriate link in the “Topic tools” menu, conveniently located near the top and bottom of a topic discussion.
Replying to a topic with the “Notify me when a reply is posted” option checked will also subscribe you to the topic.
Top
How do I subscribe to specific forums?
To subscribe to a specific forum, click the “Subscribe forum” link, at the bottom of page, upon entering the forum.
Top
How do I remove my subscriptions?
To remove your subscriptions, go to your User Control Panel and follow the links to your subscriptions.
Top
Attachments
What attachments are allowed on this board?
Each board administrator can allow or disallow certain attachment types. If you are unsure what is allowed to be uploaded, contact the board administrator for assistance.
Top
How do I find all my attachments?
To find your list of attachments that you have uploaded, go to your User Control Panel and follow the links to the attachments section.

906 | The actions of Kane were set to bring about Ascension to the faithful and those that shared his vision of a Tiberium future for the world. After his "death" in the early part of the Third Tiberium War, Kilian Qatar stated that the Brotherhood would need to put all word of Ascension aside while Nod attempted to survive.
Once Kane returned, he placed his plans on Ascension once again by having Nod capture Threshold 19, the last Scrin tower standing by the end of the Third Tiberium War.
Kane devised a Tiberium Control Network from the Tacitus, which would harness the collected Tiberium from the nodes to activate a portal inside Threshold 19. He also developed optical implants along with Dr Johann Pascal, and implanted them in five humans to activate the portal once the TCN was brought online. However the Nod Separatist leader Gideon found out about the implants as part of Kane's plans to Ascend and killed four of the implant bearers during the Fourth Tiberium War, jeopardizing Kane's Ascension plans.
At last, at the end of the so-called "Ascension Conflict", the TCN was online and ready for a direct link to Threshold 19. The last remaining Optical Implant bearer, GDI's Commander Parker, was then brought to the portal in the tower to activate it. He blacks out after Col. James' intervention, paving the way for Kane and some of his loyal Nod followers to Ascend, fulfilling his destiny and bringing about the end of the Tiberium scourge, which Gideon regarded as "the real Messiah". |

Pepper spray used on teens at all-ages show at Six Flags Over Texas
Posted Tuesday, June 1, 2010 12:19 PM | Contributed by Jeff
Controversy is brewing after fans at Six Flags in Arlington were pepper sprayed during an all-ages concert. The incident happened on Saturday night during a performance by "All Time Low" as part of a traveling multiband performance "The Bamboozle Roadshow." An official statement did admit that force was used to control the crowd.
Read more and see video from KDFW/Dallas-Ft. Worth (contains potentially offensive language).

The people in question were teenagers. How can you blame that on beer sales? I guess it isn't clear in this article. I'm trying to find the artice I read yesterday. But, it said that one of the band members threw their shirt into the crowd and 15 girls began to fight over it.

In my day, somewhere in the early '90s, security at Lakemont Park would just punch the crap out of moshing teenagers, and then drag them away from the show. I know this from experience. When asked why they bloodied my nose, and bruised both of my eyes, the head security guard told me that I looked like the "leader", and that I could have had worse injuries from moshing. Apparently, he's never seen a mosh pit before. he mistook it as unruly behavior.
I got that particular security company back though. I fired them from running security for my punk shows, which provided work for two or more guards, between two and four nights a month. :)
So which would be better? Beating up the teens, or pepper-spraying them?
Edit - About the story, good for All Time Low! They stood up for their fans, and said in the microphone what the kids wanted to say to the park staff.

For an interesting contrast to the article's video, here's the course of the show from an ATL fan's perspective. They look like an obnoxious pop punk flavor of the week and they share their fanbase's undeserved sense of entitlement. I have no problem with security's actions here.
Could it have been handled better? Sure, but let's be serious: it's security's job to protect both the band and the audience, and an unruly mob rushing the stage and fighting each other for a chance to grope the band is not a safe situation for anyone involved. No part of the ticket that anyone bought to the show granted them the right to break the venue's rules and security's repeated warnings and rush the stage, and if they're willing to ignore that, they should be willing to accept the consequences. Honestly, the sense of tweenage "mommy and daddy aren't around so I can do whatever the f^&* I want" oozing from that video makes me wish I had been the cop behind the mace can.

Seriously?
Bill, remind me not to sell you a ticket to any of MY shows. Teens can be annoying sometimes, but I respect them and the music that they enjoy. Good for the band standing up to SF on behalf of their fans.
I'm surprised that this isn't being considered child abuse.
Edit - It's a bummer that copy and paste never shows up in the post.

I am going to go out on a limb here and say that had Security just done nothing and a band member actually been "hurt", the band would have been all over Six Flags for not protecting them.
All ages show or not (which I find funny that they keep harping on), when a crowd rushes the stage and your job is to protect the stage, you protect it the best you can. Is that with pepper spray or just bodily force? I got from the article that it was only one guy (off duty cop) who used the pepper spray, not the entire Six Flags staff who was there. I saw the video and I will say that it would have been chaos to try and control a situation like that. I have been in the front row before at concerts like this (Metro Station, the Veronicas, etc) as a photographer (not a fan!) and I can say its pretty nuts with all of their fans. In fact while I would be at the front shooting pictures, I would often wonder what would happen if the crowd decided to just jump the 4 foot stage.
Whether it was right or not, what do you do in a situation like that?

Teens can be annoying sometimes, but I respect them and the music that they enjoy.
I can agree and get behind this 100% but I do not consider what was in the video to be annoying teens. Regardless of their age, a large amount of them rushed the stage which could have resulted in something a lot worse. Have you ever seen teens like this at one of these concerts? They are insane! The first thing I think of is the smaller people being trampled by all of these girls trying to get up on stage to touch a band member. I know that when I am front row at a Metallica concert and a guy in the mosh behind me falls down, the mosh stops and picks him back up. If some little girl had fallen in that crowd, I doubt anyone would have noticed.
I am not saying it was right or wrong to use pepper spray, I am just asking what else would you have done if you were security. Pepper spray is not that bad anyways. Its better than the alternative that cops have; the Police baton. Id rather take the pepper spray over a beating. :)

I agree with 99er. I would not want to be hit with Pepper Spray. But, given the choice between that, a baton beating, being teased, or gassed, I would probably go with the spray. But, that's just an assumption. Because, I have never experienced any of them.

Good for the band standing up to SF on behalf of their fans.
I'm surprised that this isn't being considered child abuse..
I'm not? While it's unfortunate that someone got maced, I fail to see how the "victim" being sub-18 makes them deserving of any sort of special treatment, especially when in my mind they share just as much blame as the cop (rent-a or otherwise). They were in a private venue at a private function and whether they're aware of it or not, they absolutely fall under the venue's rules the moment they walk in. Willful disobedience of those rules brought consequences, and I don't see how that's bad. Plus, if the "victims" had been adults bum rushing the stage at a concert, they'd have had their asses beaten (and I've seen it happen) and you probably wouldn't have heard anything about it. Happens all the time.
I'm in a band and encourage audience participation as much as the next guy, but you have to respect the venue and its rules. Look at it from security's point of view: when presented with someone bum rushing the stage and sprinting towards the lead singer you've been hired to protect, do you A) tackle the idiot (I would say the common choice), B) realize that the idiot is actually a mob of 15 year olds and go with a nonviolent method of subduing them since A) very possibly is actually child abuse, or C) let them go and potentially get fired for failing to do your job. From a purely logical perspective, I choose B; I go with the mace.
And I completely fail to see anything noble in the band's actions, from encouraging fans to ignore security to further inciting the crowd after the mace incident. If they wanted to allow fans on the stage, they should have worked that out with the venue beforehand (watching them onstage, it looks like it's something of a common occurence at their shows). I spent two years working with and chairing the entertainment/concert booking commitee at my university and that's just how it's done. Case in point, we booked Girl Talk and knew (and made sure security knew) going into it that the stage would be filled with people for the course of the show. If that hadn't been OK at our venue, we wouldn't have booked the artist unless they agreed to tighter security. If there was a disconnect to that effect in this event(and it appears that there was), if anyone's at fault it's the band's & venue's management.

So, did you guys read the 15 pages of comments in the response area of the YouTube video that Bill linked to? Some of you are ok with this behavior?
I'm no uptight goody-two-shoes, but really? Are these kids serious in thinking that the security/police are the root of their/society's problem? I think they have that completely back-asswards.
Give me the pepper spray, I have no issue pulling that trigger. (insert angry derogatory cuss word here)

I'll say it again, I think some of you forget what it's like to be a teenager. Kids don't like to be told what to do by The Man, and I haven't seen anything described that seems like abnormal or even dangerous behavior at the show. Kids are jumping up and down and pushing and shoving up at the stage? Really? I've experienced that at a Depeche Mode concert, and you don't get more benign than that.
My question is, why were kids on stage? If the band invited them on stage, then they're the ones who are responsible for anything getting out of control. That's just concert protocol... you don't let people up there en masse like that.

I think the video indicated why the kids were on stage. They determined that security sucked because a couple of other kids were able to get on stage before being escorted off, so they all decided to rush the stage to make some kind of point at the end of the concert.
It looks clear to me they knew they weren't supposed to be up there and chose to do it anyway. What else is security supposed to do to regain order? And what happens if they don't do anything and someone gets injured by the rush on stage? Who would be at fault then? |

Coast Guard, partners respond to report of grounded fishing vessel in American Samoa
Feb 7th, 2018 · Comments Off on Coast Guard, partners respond to report of grounded fishing vessel in American Samoa
File photo of an HC-130 from Coast Guard Air Station Barbers Point
PAGO PAGO, American Samoa – The Coast Guard, port partners and local authorities are responding the grounding of the 88-foot commercial fishing vessel Chui Zai Fa No. 1 about 300-yards off Leone Bay, Wednesday.
Coast Guard responders are en route to American Samoa from Honolulu expected to arrive Wednesday afternoon via an HC-130 Hercules airplane from Coast Guard Air Station Barbers Point. Additional support from the Coast Guard Pacific Strike Team based in Novato, California, is scheduled to arrive to the island aboard a commercial flight Friday. The feasibility of pollution response and salvage plans are being discussed.
Personnel from the Coast Guard Marine Safety Detachment in American Samoa, aboard a police vessel, assessed the Chu Zai Fa No. 1 following an initial report of its grounding Monday.
The Taiwanese-flagged vessel reportedly caught fire Nov. 4, 2017, in international waters prompting the crew to abandon ship into a life raft and were rescued by the crew of a Korean-flagged vessel, transferred to a sister fishing vessel and eventually disembarked in Fiji. The master of the Chu Zai Fa No. 1 and one crewmember reportedly remain missing. The Chu Zai Fa No. 1 remained adrift until its grounding Monday. The vessel has the capacity to carry 30,000 gallons of diesel fuel and there may be approximately 13,000 gallons aboard the vessel. Some of the fuel may have burned off in the fire.
The responsible party has been actively involved in addressing the matter, and has already provided significant financial resources to ensure all of the proper steps are taken in mitigating this issue.
A small craft advisory is currently in effect for American Samoa. Weather in the area is expected to deteriorate in the coming days as a monsoon trough generates wet and windy conditions across the islands through the rest of the week. Winds up to 45 mph, seas up to 10 feet, combined with hazardous north swells will gradually subside Wednesday night through Thursday morning. Occasional showers and isolated thunderstorms will occur through the next several days. Efforts are being considered to anchor the vessel in place to prevent it from shifting or damaging the coral reefs in the area.

913 | A senior Canadian financial regulator has voiced support for the decision of Facebook to ban advertisements for cryptocurrencies and ICOs, and called for Google to do the same.
Noting that regulators were ‘very pleased’ with the decision from Facebook to ban these ads, Jason Roy of the Manitoba Securities Commission said it was now incumbent on other online advertising platforms to take similar steps.
Roy, who also serves as the chair of the Binary Options Task Force in Canada, said regulators were already engaged in discussions with Google about this type of move, reflecting on how “these types of ads are leading people to becoming victims.”
Speaking to the Times of Israel, Roy’s suggestions that Google follow in Facebook’s footsteps with banning ads for cryptocurrencies, ICOs and also binary options, was positioned as an attempt to protect consumers from bad faith actors.
“There’s just been an explosion of different ICOs and new tokens and crazy offerings. You’re seeing ICOs that are raising large amounts of money and there’s nothing behind them in certain cases, but members of the public are so hyped that they’re throwing money at them,” he said.
Facebook’s ban was announced on Jan. 30, and was announced in a blog post penned by Rob Leathern, who said that while Facebook would remain an important platform for discovering cryptocurrencies, it shouldn’t be possible for potentially misleading ads to reach unsuspecting consumers.
“We want people to continue to discover and learn about new products and services through Facebook ads without fear of scams or deception. That said, there are many companies who are advertising binary options, ICOs and cryptocurrencies that are not currently operating in good faith,” according to Leathern.
Comments from Roy and the Manitoba Securities Commission are far from isolated, with increasing efforts at the regulatory level across the world to deal with the rise of cryptocurrencies.
While regulators and lawmakers describe their steps as essential regulation of a potentially risky market, critics of the plans see these efforts as attempts to control or destabilise cryptocurrency markets, and in particular the threat they could pose to the established global financial order.
Still, it remains to be seen whether the regulator’s comments will influence Google to take similar steps to Facebook in outlawing ads for cryptocurrency products.

Price Analysis
Bitcoin (BTC) has continued to trade near the $55,000 level. The sharp rally in Bitcoin has pushed its market dominance from 40.70% on Sep. 12 to about 45% on Oct. 11. This shows that the strong recovery in cryptocurrencies has been led primarily by Bitcoin.
This sharp run-up in Bitcoin has pushed the Fear and Greed indicator into the Greed zone. Although this indicator suggests that markets may have run up quickly in a short time, it does not necessarily signal a confirmed short-term top.

History suggests that traders who sold their Bitcoin positions on this metric alone could have missed strong gains before the correction set in, as highlighted by Cointelegraph Marke analyst Marcel Pechman.
Could bulls extend the up-move and push the price closer to the all-time high in Bitcoin? If that happens, select altcoins may rally to the upside. Let’s study the charts of the top five cryptocurrencies that could remain strong in the short term.
BTC/USDT
Bitcoin soared above the stiff overhead resistance at $52,920 on Oct. 6 and the bulls have held the price above the breakout level since then. This is a positive sign as it indicates that buyers may be holding on to their positions expecting higher levels in the short term.
BTC/USDT daily chart. Source: TradingView
The moving averages have completed a bullish crossover and the relative strength index (RSI) is near the overbought zone, suggesting that the path of least resistance is to the upside.
If buyers push the price above $56,100, the uptrend could resume and the BTC/USDT pair may rally to $60,000. Above this level, a retest of the all-time high at $64,854 is possible.
Contrary to this assumption, if bears pull the price below $52,920, the pair could drop to the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA) ($49,504). This is an important support for the bulls to defend because a break below it could signal a change in the short-term sentiment.
The pair could then drop to the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) ($47,578) and next to $40,000.
BTC/USDT 4-hour chart. Source: TradingView
The bulls are facing selling in the $55,750 to $56,100 zone but a positive sign is that buyers have not allowed the price to dip below the 20-EMA. This indicates that bulls anticipate a break above the overhead zone.
If that happens, the pair could resume its uptrend. The first sign of weakness will be a break and close below the 20-EMA. The RSI is forming a negative divergence, signaling that the momentum may be weakening.
A break and close below the 20-EMA could pull the price to the 50-SMA. A break below this support could start a deeper correction.
DOT/USDT
Polkadot (DOT) has been gradually moving higher toward the overhead resistance at $38.77. The RSI has broken out of the downtrend line and the 20-day EMA ($32.15) has started to turn up, indicating an advantage to buyers.
DOT/USDT daily chart. Source: TradingView
If bulls thrust the price above $38.77, it will invalidate the head and shoulders pattern. The failure of a bearish setup is a bullish sign as it may trap the aggressive bears who then try to cover their positions, resulting in a short-squeeze.
The DOT/USDT pair could then start its journey toward $49.78. Alternatively, if the price turns down from the current level or the overhead resistance and breaks below the moving averages, the pair could drop to $28.60.
A bounce off this support could keep the pair range-bound for a few days. The bears will have to pull the price below the neckline to signal their supremacy.
DOT/USDT 4-hour chart. Source: TradingView
Both moving averages are sloping up and the RSI is in the positive territory, suggesting that buyers are in control. The pair could drop to the 20-EMA, which is likely to act as a strong support. If the price turns up from this support, the bulls will try to push the pair to $38.77.
This level may again act as a stiff resistance but if bulls do not give up much ground from it, the possibility of a break above it increases.
Conversely, if bears pull the price below the 20-EMA, the pair could drop to the 50-SMA. A break and close below this support could result in a decline to $31 and then $29.
UNI/USDT
Uniswap (UNI) has been holding above the 20-day EMA (24.55) for the past few days, which shows that bulls are trying to defend this support. However, the bears are in no mood to relent as they have not allowed the price to rise above the neckline.
UNI/USDT daily chart. Source: TradingView
The buyers will have to push and close the price above the neckline to complete an inverse H&S pattern. This bullish reversal setup has a pattern target at $36.98 but the rally may not be linear as bears will try to defend the level at $31.41.
The 20-day EMA is rising gradually and the RSI is just above the midpoint, suggesting that bulls have a slight edge. This advantage will be lost if the price breaks and closes below the 20-day EMA.
In such a case, the UNI/USDT pair could drop to $22. This level may act as a support but if bears sink the price below it, the pair could extend the decline to $17.73.
UNI/USDT 4-hour chart. Source: TradingView
The 4-hour chart shows that the price has roughly been consolidating in a tight range between $24 and $26 for some time. Usually, such tight ranges result in the start of a directional move.
If buyers drive and sustain the price above $26, the possibility of a break above the neckline increases. That could start the march toward the next overhead resistance at $30 and then to $31.
On the other hand, if the price breaks below $24, the short-term trend may turn in favor of bears. The pair could then drop to $22.

LINK/USDT
Chainlink (LINK) broke above the downtrend line on Oct. 1, but the bulls have not been able to capitalize on this move. The altcoin has been stuck in a tight range between $25.20 and $26.19 for the past few days.
LINK/USDT daily chart. Source: TradingView
Both moving averages are flat and the RSI has been trading just above the midpoint, suggesting a balance between supply and demand. This equilibrium will tilt in favor of buyers if the price breaks and closes above $28.19.
The LINK/USDT pair could then rally to $32.11 and later challenge the stiff overhead resistance at $35.33.
Alternatively, a break and close below $25.20 could signal that supply exceeds demand. The pair could then drop to the $22 to $20.82 support zone.
LINK/USDT 4-hour chart. Source: TradingView
The price turned down from the overhead resistance and bears have pulled the price below the moving averages. If sellers sustain the lower levels, the pair could drop to the support at $25.20. A break below this level could signal that bears are back in command.
Conversely, if the price turns up from the current level and rises back above the moving averages, it will suggest that traders are buying on dips. The bulls will have to push and sustain the price above $28.19 to signal that they are back in the driver’s seat. Thereafter, the pair could rally to $32.11.
XMR/USDT
Monero (XMR) rose above the 50-day SMA ($271) on Oct. 5 and reached the downtrend line on Oct. 6. The bears are aggressively defending the downtrend line for the past few days but a minor positive is that bulls have not allowed the price to dip back below the 50-day SMA.
XMR/USDT daily chart. Source: TradingView
The 20-day EMA ($263) is sloping up gradually and the RSI is in the positive zone, indicating a minor advantage to buyers. A break and close above the psychological mark at $300 could open the doors for an up-move to $325 and then to $339.70.
On the contrary, if the price turns down and breaks below the 20-day EMA, it will suggest that short-term traders may have dumped their positions. That could pull the price down to $250 and later to $225.
XMR/USDT 4-hour chart. Source: TradingView
The bulls have pushed the price above the downtrend line repeatedly but the bears have not allowed the pair to sustain above it. The 20-EMA has flattened out and the RSI is close to the center, suggesting a balance between supply and demand.
If the price breaks below the 50-SMA, the short-term bulls may rush to the exit. That could pull the price down to $260 and next to $250.
Conversely, if bulls push the price above $286.8, the pair could rise to $296.80. The bullish momentum may pick up if bulls thrust the price above this resistance.

917 | As clouds of war gather over the Gulf of Mexico, murder enters the lives of a young poverty-stricken Galveston widow and her crippled son Benjamin. Azzo, a romantic stranger born in Germany, plays on Sarah’s emotions while helping enhance her income by converting her crumbling 19th century mansion into modern apartments.
From just before the beginning of war, the crippled Benjamin finds that he has a deadly secret that can never be revealed without bringing danger to his family and Galveston.
World War II erupts and Sarah, assistant manager of the organization that schedules Galveston shipping, finds herself a target for saboteurs and spies while German submarines lurk offshore, waiting for oil tankers as they exit into the Gulf of Mexico.
Love, Sarah will learn, may not be enough to overcome the secrets that Azzo carries, some that could topple a government.
Through it all though, Sarah knows the strength and true grit of her son’s character. She never doubts that Benjamin will overcome his polio, realize his heart’s desire, and Run With The Wind.
Run With the Wind
Secrets of WW II Galveston
Summer, 1938. The Beginning:
A stranger crashes his car through Sarah Jacob’s rusting wrought-iron picket fence and into her side yard as the young widow watches in a mixture of terror and concern. The man climbs from the wreck and staggers toward Sarah, holding his hand in an awkward closed-fist greeting. But before he can go more than two or three steps, he collapses to his knees and dies, leaving behind only the vaguest of clues about the secret he was delivering.
Secrets:
Sarah’s 10-year old son, crippled with polio, has a secret about the man who died, and lives in fear, unable to tell anyone, and unsure where he can find help.
Sarah’s Great-Uncle Levi Weismann, Galveston pioneer, family patriarch and head of Galveston’s premier bank has a secret that he intends to carry to his grave.
A handsome stranger, claiming to be an author doing research, arrives in Galveston with a secret and initiates a friendship with Sarah’s banker uncle.
And this stranger, an avid surf fisherman whose long surf rods oddly resemble short-wave radio antenna, begins a program of worming his way into Sarah’s and her son’s life.
Then, the blanket of a world war descends upon the Gulf of Mexico and Galveston.
The Target:
Sarah, secretary and assistant manager of Galveston Pilots’ Guild is responsible for shipping schedules for oil tankers carrying Texas crude through the Gulf to the New Jersey refineries. As such, she finds herself the target of German spies and saboteurs as they seek information to feed enemy submarines lurking offshore.
Sarah’s Secret:
Sarah longs for the day when her crippled son can put aside his leg braces and crutches, go to the beach, and |
