Martin Luther's confession of "Christian Freedon" with his belief in need for rigid social order is reconciled by his writing on what he consider the "two kingdoms." Luther's understanding of these separate realms comes from a treatise, "The Freedom of a Christian (1520), in which he sets forth two propositions: "A Christian is a perfectly free lord of all, subject to none. A Christian is a perfectly dutiful servant of all, subject to all." Although these statements appear to contradict one another, Luther notes that he is simply quoting the Apostle Paul who writes, "For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a slave to all" (1 Cor. 9:19). These seemingly contradictory ideas of freedom and obedience lay the foundation for how Luther goes on to distinguish heaven from earth, state and church, and law from Gospel.
Luther's treatise, "The Freedom of a Christian" strikes at the very heart of Reformation theology which confesses salvation as free gift through faith alone. Luther scours both old and new testaments finding one confession and one testament in Christ and Christ alone. Herein can he see Scripture in two parts consisting of God's encounter with his creature which expresses both command and promise – crushing encounter with law – and gracious address through promise in Christ. The commands take place most concretely through the Ten Commandments received by Moses on Mount Sinai. These commandments for Luther do not hold any value as pertaining to salvation but provide a different purpose, "They (commandments) are intended to teach man to know himself, in through them he may recognize his inability to do good and may despair of his own ability," (57). This desperation and helplessness are not detrimental to acquiring righteousness, but rather absolutely necessary for the reception of the Gospel. The Holy Gospel supersedes and eradicates the condemnation of the law for God himself bears it and executes judgment and justice in and of himself.
Receiving this promise, Luther notes from the Gospel of John is a matter of faith alone, which of itself is not of human design but passively received gift, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom He has sent." This immersion into the Gospel by God's work is how Luther begins his explanation of the nature of "Christian liberty." His understanding of freedom spring from an exchange of faith coupled with the promise of the crucifixion of the old man whose nature had thus clung to the law rather than promise, "Faith, which is a small and perfect fulfillment of the law, will fill believers with so great a righteousness that they will need nothing more to become righteous." This magnificent exchange for Luther means that the righteousness and glory of Jesus Christ is imputed to the faithful as attributes which can rightfully be called ones very own. In the same way, the failed commandments and curse of sin extending to the whole of humanity throughout time is placed upon Jesus and drowned in his death on the cross. Luther writes of this freedom is much lovelier terms, using holy marriage to describe this exchange:
Christ is full of grace, life, and salvation. The soul is full of sins, death, and damnation. Now let faith come between them and sins, death, and damnation will be Christ's, while grace, life, and salvation will be the soul's; for if Christ is a bridegroom, he must take upon himself the things which are his bride's and bestow upon her the things that are his. If he gives her his body and very self, how shall he not give her all that is his? And if he take the body of the bride, how shall he not take all that is hers. (p. 60).
The grand way in which Luther speaks of this union reveals the depth of passion he holds for such an exchange and his certainty of such as event. This certainty is grasped by faith and the exchange Luther paints is not metaphorical but God's act in Christ in which he weds himself to the church through the Son. The freedom he speaks of is secure in the gift of faith, which overrides the damnation of the law, while acquiring the bridegroom of Jesus Christ and his gifts of salvation and eternal life.
As the freedom of a Christian deals with receiving faith, life, and salvation from God, Luther views vocation as a position where the Christian freely serves his or her neighbor in fervent love and kindness. Although this love is created and fed by faith, vocation does not exact a governing role over faith. In the way that salvation is claimed by God in Christ in the spiritual realm, love takes root by and through faith in daily vocation. The works that take place in vocation do not merit any divine or redemptive favor. In Luther's Large Catechism he further distinguishes the two kingdoms: "In God's sight it is actually faith that makes a person holy, it alone serves God, while our works serve people," (LC 406). In other words we might say, "God does not need your help but desires faith" – a faith which is ultimately claimed in Christ's reordering of the cosmos in the crucifixion and resurrection. Visually, vocation and the temporal realm can be seen as existing on a horizontal plane in which a Christian does not escape from the world but is rather organically reincorporated into it for the purpose God's love toward his creation. The spiritual realm is accessed vertically by Christ's descent into the flesh of the virgin – who encounters man and remakes him at the event of the cross. Although distinguished realms (temporal and spiritual) they are not wholly separated for the Christian but rather reconciled and brought into a divine ordered harmony.
It is Luther's understanding that coerced social order by temporal governance is not necessary for the baptized Christian who is faithfully nurtured in the spiritual milk of Christ's cross but remains divine in its origin serving the common good, suppressing evil and preserving peace. The 'realist' might be critical of this assessment, yet Luther is ever focused on the wholly new creation who finds true freedom in the new slavery of God's justifying act in and through Christ, "This I that Christian liberty, our faith, which does not induce us to live in idleness of wickedness but makes the law and works unnecessary for any man's righteousness and salvation." Therefore, this freedom is otherworldly – marked by God's reestablished communion with his creation – in which God is creator, man is creature – and the alienation from the law is consumed and buried – forever forgotten. This relationship in Christ has a "vertical" quality, which contrasts the earthly realm of family, neighbors, rules, and various social roles. This is to say that the established relationship between Creator and creature is unassailable by all that which exists throughout the bitter despairs, challenges and temptations of daily life. Luther notes however, that God is ruler of both kingdom, "First we must provide a sound basis for the civil law and sword so no one will doubt that it is in the world by God's will and ordinance," (Temporal 85). However, later on in Luther's treatise on temporal government he also writes that redeemed Christians suffer and persist in daily life apart from coercive civil law:
"…among themselves (Christians) and by and for themselves, need no law or sword, since it is neither necessary nor useful for them. Since a true Christian lives and labors on earth not for himself alone but for his neighbor, he does by the very nature of his spirit even what he himself has no need of, but is needful and useful to his neighbor. Because the sword is most beneficial and necessary for the whole world inorder to preserve peace, punish sin, and restrain the wicked, the Christian submits most willingly to the rule of the sword, pays his taxes, honors those in authority, serves, helps, and does all he can to assist the governing authority, that it may continue to function and be held in honor and fear." (temporal 94).
For an ex-communicated heretic his reverence for authority may be surprising. Luther is careful to continue with precise distinction between his understanding of the spiritual and earthly kingdoms. His theology never borders on Christians utopias as remotely possible. Although he retains a belief that the new creature in Christ fulfils and exceeds temporal law obediently and joyfully, such theocratic or Christian governance is impossible, "…for the world and masses are and always will be un-Christian, even if they are all baptized and Christian in name" (Temporal 91). From Luther's own personal experience with "anfechtungens," his awareness of the enormity of sin and the human condition without external restraints he describes as, "…loosing the ropes and chains of the savage wild beasts and letting them bite and mangle everyone…" This worldly government he sees as necessary to subdue disorder and evil passions while administering earthly justice. In Luther's lecture on Genesis he historically pieces together how the fallen man made the care-free social order of paradise into a coercive order through which civil law must function:
"Moreover, there was no government of the state before sin, for there was no need of it. Civil government is remedy required by our corrupted nature. It is necessary that lust be held in check by the bonds of the laws and by penalties. For this reason you may correctly call civil government the rule of sin, just as Paul calls Moses also the minister of death and sin."
This post-sin justice from the law is universal and cross-cultural and maintains social order in a way to protect people in body and property. The earthly life of a free Christian is bound to secular authorities and its social, financial, and physical demands. The spiritual life of a free Christian is not jeopardized by the various offices of vocation expressed in the horizontal plane with all the possible elements of diversity assumed by a given post.
It is common for many to confuse the kingdoms of heaven and earth, to merge them, contort them, or alternatively to complete separate them as did the Gnostic heresies. For example, some protest the act of war and killing as intrinsically evil and contradictory to the faith of Christian. Although Luther is well aware of the misery of war and injustice, he also clearly sees the other side of war, "But when I think of how it protects the good and keeps and preserves wife and child, house and farm, property, and honors and peace, then I see how precious and godly this work is; and I observe that it amputates a leg or a hand, so that the whole body may not perish," (Whether Soldiers Too Can be Saved p. 96).
Retributive killing in response to murder, Luther sees as divine in its origin, rooted in Cain's fear of the sword after killing Abel, as well as God's extremely definitive laws after the flood, "Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed." Luther sees capital punishment as a basic precept of earthly justice which remains constant regardless of the winds of political or moral persuasion, "The credit or blame belong to men if this law instituted by God is not carried out; just as other commandments of God, too, are broken" (Temporal Authority 88).
It is important to understand vocations defined by war and punishment, to highlight the visualization of the volatility of various earthly offices, to grasp Luther's conviction that the free and faithful Christian is undisturbed in matter of faith. We have seen the necessity of the offices of the civil judge, the soldier, and the executioner. These offices, in which violence and killing can be commonplace, can be maintained by the free Christian fulfilling his or her civil duties commanded by God. Luther insists that while the soul is bound up in the body of Christ, the body remaining in this earthly life remains bound to worldly rulers. Therefore the duties that go along with these offices pertain to earthly justice and matters of civic duty, which can neither jeopardize or nullify standing with God. Earthly justice therefore must be carefully distinguished from spiritual justice which is only defined through means of grace and Christ's encounter with his dearly beloved.
In Luther's treatise, "Whether Soldiers Too, Can Be Saved," he writes, "For the very fact that the sword has been instituted by God to punish evil, protect the good, and preserve peace is powerful and sufficient proof that war and killing along with all the things that accompany wartime and martial law and have been instituted by God" (p. 95). The violence and "all things accompany" wartime having no impact on salvation for the free Christian seems very much a liberating concept for the consciences of those holding offices dealing in such works of violence and turmoil. Luther makes certain to even reach out to the executioner, the most feared villain in medieval society – to extend mercy and calm his conscience, "There must be those who arrest, prosecute, execute, and destroy the wicked…" (p. 103). One can imagine a masked executioner holding a blood sword after severing the head of a criminal, yet if Christian, remains faithful and righteous before God in both spiritual and civic realms.
Luther's reverence for social order as directed by civil government is absolute, yet for the free Christian does have its' limits. Where temporal government has dominion over the citizenry and property, its' authority comes to a screeching halt where it encroaches on spiritual matter, "Therefore where the temporal authority presumes to prescribe laws for the soul, it encroaches upon God's government and only misleads souls and destroys them" (p. 105). This type of infringement would be for a government to coerce a soul to believe that which is contradictory to Scripture, or to inhibit the hearing of the gospel and the reception of the sacraments of the church. The teaching and treasures of the church are handed over to Bishops and Pastors to be servants of Christ and freely give to all. As for heresy, government is also incapable of serving the church – for the sword is of no use, "Here God's Word must do the fighting (p. 114).
In response to a government which coerces unbelief in matter of faith or hinders Christ gifts, Luther instructs the free Christian to rebuke the corrupt authority by saying, "It is not fitting that Lucifer should sit at the side of God. Gracious Sir, I owe you obedience in body and property; command me within the limits of your authority on earth, and I will obey" (p. 112). Therefore, government has no divinely ordained right to sit with God and intrude upon matter of the soul. This passage also highlights the confusion of the two kingdoms that such a government would seek.
Luther never entices a Christian reader to raise up against such an authority but to only deny its' power in the territory of the spiritual realm, which carries faith. The matter of faith for the free Christian is not to react with hostility or anger to temporal rule. Luther's every thought and argument is focused squarely on new life in Christ, which leaves no room for violent or hostile resistance to authority, "Christians do every good thing of their own accord and without constraint, and find God's word alone sufficient for them" (p. 118).
Christian freedom is a new state of affairs where liberty is marked by release from the law and condemnation where a submissive and peaceful heart operate joyfully in the social order under temporal authorities. Luther asserts that God has dominion over both spiritual and earthly kingdoms, where only the Christian can find harmony between the two - mediated by God's act on the cross. The Christian who receives citizenship in heaven is not spiritually deterred or jeopardized by faithful execution of one's God-given vocation. God divinely rules through civil government and works all things for his creation through his established social order. As for the intricacies of social justice as relates to temporal matters, Luther is not excessively entrenched, for his meditations are focused wholly on the condition of the soul for the free Christian, where temporal rule cannot tread.

Quentin Tarantino unintentionally writes roles perfect for Jackson
The filmmaker admits he never sits down to pen material specifically for Jackson – it just seems to happen naturally.
But the Pulp Fiction icon isn't the only one Tarantino finds himself mentally casting in his screenplays – Inglourious Basterds star Christoph Waltz has become somewhat of a muse too.
He says, "I had the same problem with Sam for about a decade. It's hard not to write for these guys. They say my dialogue so well. Seven months for the year-and-a-half writing Kill Bill, Bill sounded just like Sam. They come out of my pen and I can't shut it off."
The director reveals his original vision for new slave western Django Unchained never featured a crazy dentist, but he found himself writing one in that was ideal for Waltz.
He explains, "I've wanted to do this story for a long time. There was never a German bounty hunter dentist in the story. I sat down and the opening scene just ran out of the pen like an antenna to God."
Jackson has worked with Tarantino five times to date, starring in Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill: Volume 2, Inglourious Basterds and Django Unchained.

Remy is the same way. He is an AWSOME sleeper in his car seat when Im driving and usually stays asleep during an outing in the stroller. I am so thankful for that! But if im home he is a terrible napper. He will fall asleep while I feed him but the moment I get up he gets up and refuses to sleep. He takes lots of cat naps during the day about 10 minutes the most I get out of him. It is exhausting. Finally about 3 or 4 pm he will start taking a good 2 hour nap before wanting to eat again. SHHHHHH.......yesterday I got 3 hours out of him between feedings!

Raymond's Review
A/C Warranty Service Call
Brandon Jonas came by my house to diagnose my A/C problem. He organized cable wires inside my unit to look them pretty. After a hour or so inspection, he concluded that he found a leaking freon on the outside unit under the fan blade, at first thought to be tampered because it had 0 psi, 2% rare because it is only 1 year old. When all said and done, he explained to me in great detail what happened, very thorough and professional technician. Thank you.

Please sign the petition to support the Governor's cap and trade proposal. We will present the petitions as public testimony and deliver copies personally to members of the committee. Please sign the petition whether or not your legislator is on a committee considering it.
This is an important set in address climate change.
We, the citizens of Washington State, petition our state legislators to enact the Governor's Carbon Pollution Accountability Act, HB1314, SB5283, in the 2015 session.
We petition for four basic reasons:
1. The release of carbon dioxide and other pollutants from industry in Washington State is causing devastating and perhaps irreversible harm in our state and around the world, including increasing temperatures; declining snowpack which reduces water supplies; the danger of forest fires, such as the Carlton Complex fire; acidification of our waters; a dangerous increase is asthma, particularly in low income communities; further damage to the ozone layer, leading to more cancers.
2. The bill will put the burden for reducing carbon pollution where it belongs - on the large polluters - and will generate nearly $1 billion per year in revenue to the state needed for education and to restore the decimated social safety net.
3. This is one small but significant step to making Washington State's tax structure fairer and help us move from being far and away the most inequitable state in the nation, taking seven time more in state and local taxes from the bottom 20% than from the top 1%. And it has racial equity built in.
4. The proposed system will ameliorate negative effects on low-income communities through the Working Families Tax Rebate.

text: Okay, I apologize in advance if these questions have already been answered.. I did use the search function and read through several threads, but there is SOOO much talk about rooting on here it's hard to sift through everything and find direct answers to what I'm looking for. Now... Down to my questions. 1) If I root and install a froyo ROM, will i lose all of my data? (will it be like formatting my hard drive on a pc?) 2) If I root and install a froyo rom now, how much of a pain is it to change to the official release of 2.2 when it comes out (if i should want to?) 3)The latest statistics I saw basically had bricking your phone as a result of rooting it *very* low.. I'm sure this is probably still the case, but I'd rather ask and double check before I trash my expensive phone.. 4) Is there a solid 2.2 Froyo ROM with flash out at the moment? 5)I use google voice to do almost 100% of my texting/calling.. Changing to a ROM won't interfere with this will it? Sorry if this is repeat content, but I really do appreciate your responses.. Thanks.

Today I was forwarded an email from a researcher, Gary. He has been studying beachings for a long time and has connected up earthquakes to them. In a quick summary, he says that from 3 days to a week of a beaching, there can be an earthquake in the vicinity.
He goes on to talk about the Japan quake and also the Christchurch Quake and explains beachings recently before they occurred.
It makes sense to me as it's all based around disturbances in the earths electromagnetic field and of course they would be stronger near fault lines, such as the pacific ring of fire. Japan and New Zealand are both next to/on fault lines.
A full copy and paste of his email is included in this blog. If you wish to sign up to his email list about this, just leave a comment or contact me.
"After I announced that whales beaching themselves warn of pending earthquakes but wasn't taken seriously. How does this look now after a large beaching took place before the New Zealand earthquake and the Japan quake.
I have quite a bit of data supporting this.
There has been a devastating earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand–much worse than the September quake. , On 4th February, 82 pilot whales beached at Golden Bay, which is at the northern tip of the South Island, and a few days later 107 whales beached and died on Stewart Island south of Christchurch.
Japan has been hit by a monster earthquake and tsunami. The epicentre of the quake was in Miyagi Prefecture. On 6 March, a week earlier, 50 Mellon Headed whales beached in Ibaraki Prefecture, a little over 100 kilometres south. Twenty-two of the whales were refloated and saved.
In every one of these cases and so many more like whales beaching themselves in Brazil just before the Haiti earthquake. Earthquakes have happened in that area.
After whales beached in Scotland in 2008 there were 2 earthquakes in Scotland after this one in the Highlands and one off the coast of Aberdeen.
There has to be a connection here and it seems the larger the number of whales that beach the bigger the earthquake.
To me the mass stranding and deaths of whales and dolphins on an Australian beach signal the advent of the earthquake that caused the Boxing Day tsunami in 2004
What is true is that on December 4, three weeks before the earthquake off Indonesia, I spoke on Radio 5AA in Adelaide with Brian Bennet the announcer and noted by Jenny his producer (Who still producers at 5AA) about a large whale-stranding in Tasmania, and its possible implications as these whales did a hasty mass exodus out of the Bay of Bengal and down the west coast of Australia followed by Dolphins and Sharks.
About 120 whales stranded and died on the west coast of Tasmania at the end of November and 50 pilot whales died on a Coromandel beach in New Zealand at the same time. These were the whales the escaped out of the Indian ocean as mentioned above.
"It is my observation, confirmed over the years, that mass suicides of whales and dolphins that occur sporadically all over the world, are in some way related to change and disturbances in the electromagnetic field along the Pacific Ring Of Fire. Tracking the data and plotting the locales of tremors and earthquakes, I am reasonably certain that major earthquakes usually follow within 3 days to a week of mass breaching of Whales, & Dolphins. I have noted with alarm, such mass deaths of marine mammals in the past on many occasions. The interrelationship between the unusual 'death-wish' of pods of whales and its inevitable aftermath, the earthquake, needs further impassioned and unbiased looking into by proper scientists.
For nearly 27 years I have correlated them to occurrences of upheavals on land and undersea, and had observed a remarkable connection between the events.
Scientists are aware of the possible connection between the behaviour of cetaceans (whales and dolphins) and the Earth's magnetic field, but speaking to many and asking why research has not gone into this? the response is NO FUNDING! Scientist do no work without pay!
I talked to friends in Christchurch and asked them if there had been any reports of animals behaving strangely right before the earthquake. A number of people had stories of their dog or cat behaving unusually. The most extreme example was a person whose dog actually jumped on their bed and woke them up minutes before the earthquake.
In any event, a number of people said that they were woken up shortly before the quake by birds making a lot of noise. At four in the morning. The official explanation is that the worms, feeling the vibrations or something, were moving to the surface and the birds were literally following the old adage of the early bird gets the worm. I guess if worms feel something, it's not unreasonable to imagine that whales, who communicate by sound would also sense unusual energies.
All this is interesting, and a little bit scary. But I guess the bottom line is that the next time you hear about a whale stranding you should ask whether there's been an earthquake or volcanic eruption recently. If the answer is no, then watch out!"

During my last teacher training program, one of the younger women in the group announced that what she felt like she needed in her life was a council of elders.
And she asked me if I would be willing to be part of that circle. Of course, I enthusiastically said yes. Not only did I feel deeply honored, but I also was looking forward to the opportunity of giving a young person some advice they might actually take!
This particular women happened to also be a student in my weekly Wild Heart Painting class, and the next time I saw her, she shared in our group about struggling with an issue around dating. She is newly single and looking for a relationship that better meets her emotional and spiritual needs.
But she was getting a lot of relationship advice from blogs and well meaning friends about how she should present herself to potential new beaus she met on various dating sites.
She is a gorgeously and soulfully alive human being, very in touch with her feelings and emotions and often gets criticized for being "too intense." Which I always hear as code for "I have a hard time tolerating my own feelings. So I'm going to shame you into shutting down yours so I don't have to feel mine."
What she was actually feeling about going out into the dating world was a sense of anxiety, vulnerability and insecurity. But the message she was getting was that she should play it cool by acting as if she were confident and powerful and unconcerned about the whole dating process.
When she started her painting, she found herself hunkered down in a tiny corner of a very large canvas that she had been working on for a few months. When I checked in with her about her painting process she expressed frustration with what was showing up, which was a tiny and tender childlike figure that symbolized the emotions she was judging so harshly.
She wanted those particular feelings of what she called "whimpering clinginess" to simply go away. But I encouraged her to go towards them and find a place to hold them with compassion and maybe even celebrate their wisdom by intensifying them through her creative process.
I counseled her that she would be way better off showing all of herself to any prospective suitors and not try to entice them with a somewhat false version of herself.
She was totally horrified by the whole idea, but then the other women who were painting alongside her in the studio, and who were also part of her trusted creative community, began to chime in and back me up.
All of these women were 50 years or older and were lovingly and playfully challenging her to open herself to the suggestion of revealing her real self from the start if she wanted to have a relationship where she could truly be seen and loved as herself in the long run.
The joy in the room was palpable as we all connected with each other from that place of discomfort that everyone was feeling at the always scary prospect of true intimacy.
I could tell that the young woman was actually enjoying the attention and that it was beginning to dawn on her that maybe the old girls had a point with all this seeming madness.
And then she laughingly said… "This isn't fair! You are all ganging up on me with your truth telling!!"
Me: "Well, you wanted a council of elders! This is what it looks like. It's our job to tell the truth."
Her: "Does the truth always have to be so uncomfortable?"
Me: "Especially if it's uncomfortable! That's when we need the most help in hearing the truth."
Her: "Is it too late to ask for a new council?"
At that, we all burst into laughter once again and I could see that our council daughter was feeling seen and heard and KNOWN in a deep healing way. It filled my heart with delight knowing that our validating her would give her the strength to make decisions based on courageously living from her most authentic self.
We all need a wise and compassionate "council of elders" from time to time when we lose our way.
They don't even necessarily have to be in human form. Or older than you.
My council includes friends and colleagues and my amazing husband. But I also have cosmic deities ( Kuan Yin and Kali), dead artists ( Frida Kahlo and Georgia O'Keefe) and powerful rock formations in the mountains ( the tufa towers at Mono Lake) and desert sitting on my spiritual board. I feel continually supported by these deeply trusted people, places and spiritual beings. They are always available and I know I can turn to them when I need a gentle OR insistent nudge back to the center of my soul.
So who serves that function for you? Who is there in your life, helping to keep you honest and challenging you to stay true to your OWN deepest emotional and spiritual wisdom?

Tesco has told farmers, who supply the supermarket giant with lamb, to stop using the dogs unless they can be retrained to be "more considerate" towards the flock.
The shepherds have reacted with outrage, and claimed up to 60 dogs have now joined the ranks of the unemployed.
Welfare experts expressed bafflement that the centuries-old tradition of moving sheep around with the use of a scurrying, yapping dog could upset the sheep.
However, Tesco was adamant that one of its largest suppliers in New Zealand, Silver Fern Farms in Fairton, should stop using dogs to herd sheep into the abattoir.
Unlike in Britain, most abattoirs are attached to farms in New Zealand, ensuring the farm does not need to truck its flock down the motorway to a slaughterhouse.
The supermarket wants the shepherds to wave their arms, beat sticks or wave flags, to move the sheep into the abattoir.
The surprise order from Tesco, which comes into force next week, came to light thanks to a letter sent to the Daily Telegraph by an upset reader.
Mick Petheram, one of the shepherds, said: "New Zealand sheep are used to dogs, they know dogs. There's more stress in a human herding and manhandling them, waving their arms and beating sticks. Dogs are part of a sheep's life. This is absolute baloney."
He said that he and his fellow workers would have to sell their dogs, or worse, put them down. "We'll be desperately trying to sell them, but most of us will end up putting down three or four each. These are bloody good dogs. Taking away our dogs is like taking a hammer away from a builder; we can't do our job without them," he said.
New Zealand is the biggest source of lamb in Britain at this time of year, and it is understood that the Silver Fern Farms is one of Tesco's biggest suppliers.
It was visited by Tesco buyers earlier this year, who were "upset" at seeing the dogs "running riot", according to a spokesman for the supermarket.
The National Farmers' Union said that it was not aware of any research indicating that farm animals suffered stress because of sheepdogs.
"Sheepdogs are trained specifically to herd sheep and in some cases cattle and we have heard no problems about them being harmful to the animals," a spokesman said.
Tesco stood by its decision. "We don't have a problem with sheep dogs, but we need to make sure they move the sheep in a considerate manner, so they don't stress the sheep out," said a spokesman.
Scientists have found some evidence that if animals that are "stressed" immediately before slaughter the pH level of the meat increases, creating a pale, watery cut.
Leading animal welfare charity the RSPCA said it had concerns about the anxiety suffered by sheep as they are circled and pursued by dogs, but did not believe a ban was necessary.

Reminiscing About Ramen
Personally, I was born and raised on the stuff. My dad is from Hawaii, and growing up, he ate saimin (that's what we call ramen in our family) on a daily basis, and he passed that tradition on to our family. The lunches I most vividly remember as a child were saimin with sliced Vienna sausages mixed in the noodles and half a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I know, I know. In some crowds nowadays that would be akin to child abuse. But, honestly, I loved it, and have such good memories of sitting around the kitchen table with my brothers, all of us slurping up the long noodles while the broth sprayed all over the place and made us giggle.
Unfortunately, I'm a big girl now and I've got a bit of a conscience about additives in my food so poring over the label on a bag of ramen makes me sick to my stomach, nostalgic, and sad all at the same time. I wish I could serve up a piping hot bowl of noodles to my kids and feel good about it but I just can't . I mean, the list of offenders begins with msg and (about 30-words-I-cannot-pronounce later) ends with Maltodextrin. Very, very scary.
Now, the truth is that I am a healthy, fairly stable adult, so one could say that the constant diet of ramen as a kid must not have been too detrimental to my health. On the surface, that would seem to be true. But in hindsight, I dealt with being overweight for most of my childhood and teenage years. I'm not saying that we need to put our kids on diets. Far from it. But I do think that if weight is in issue in your family, that you need to take a good hard look at how much fresh food your kids are getting, and how many "ramen-type" foods they are consuming.
I'm coming clean here: when I visit my parents, I still really love it when my dad sets down a steaming hot bowl of saimin in front of me and hands me one of his Chinese soup spoons to ladle up the noodles and broth. And at the moment I do have a box of spicy saimin in my pantry that my dad bought for me the last time I went to visit.
So despite all my qualms with crappy food, I still enjoy saimin. Not every day, not every week, not even every month. Truthfully, I haven't even opened the box my dad gave me yet and I got it back in June. I guess I just like knowing it's there, a little remnant of my childhood preserved in my cupboard. One day I'd like to find a healthy version, one that uses fresh noodles and broth and all kinds of delicious veggies. Maybe I could start a new kind of tradition with my kids, but one that still hearkens back to my and my dad's childhood days.
What about you? Do you have a favorite food of childhood that you wish came in a healthier version for you to feed your children?

Oh My Gosh!!! I remember eating saimin with you guys!!!! That was a summer staple in Kings Chapel :) And, crazy thing, I didn't know it wasn't called Saimin until I went to college. I said something about getting saimin at Meijer's my freshman year, and people looked at me like I was crazy. Oh, those are great memories!!! However, I have to admit... that is a staple in our house now... not eaten all the time, but always in the cabinet for a quick side or snack.ReplyDelete
Truthfully I never really ate much junk food as a child. I remember just eating what we wanted to eat and then that was it. We were not big snackers. And meals were normally homemade and not instant crap. Now occasionally I would have ramen noodles. In the cafeteria at school on Friday's a friend and I would split a cup of it for our lunch. So funny and sad how my eating habits have changed so dramatically.ReplyDelete
Julie, I remember those days so clearly and I love that you still called it saimin for years! I'll have to tell my dad that; he'd get a real kick out of it:)ReplyDelete
Mai, I'll take the box of spicy saimen. If you throw some char siu in there it is amazing. We love it. No need to hoard. :-)ReplyDelete
Matthew, I have a box too but I don't have char-sui. Now who is hoarding! ;)ReplyDelete

Welcome to my MDL page and thank you so much for visiting.
As you may already be able to tell I am fairly new to My Drama List but I hope to make friends and talk to some of you guys because although I am kinda shy I really love making new friends (^ー^)
I really love Korean Drama's and also a few Japanese drama's but I am still yet to try out other Asian drama's.
I aspire to live in Japan when I am older as I love Japanese culture, Japanese language and overall I would just really love to live there although, I also adore South Korea, China and other Asian and Non-Asian countries as I have a huge interest in other cultures, languages and cuisines.
My love for Korean dramas and Kpop all began when I caught interest in Pokemon around 3 years ago. From a really young age my brother collected Pokemon cards although I had never really payed attention to it until I was around 11 years old I one day decided to look through his cards and he taught me about the magical world of Pokemon. After getting into Pokemon I began to find other Japanese related things that I really liked and watched my first Anime [Other than Pokemon] which lead me into being a huge Anime fan. I then also found the popular Japanese singer Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and that was the start of my love for Jpop. This continued for a couple of years and I really wanted to move to Japan in the future [Which I still do] but I had a friend at my School who was a huge Kpop fan. I never really paid that much interest when she talking about Kpop to be begin with but after she recommended me some BTS and EXO songs I decided to give them ago and tell her my opinion. This was the start to my Kpop obsession and ever since I have been hooked on Kpop and am still extremley thankful to her for introducing me to the world of Kpop and Bangtan Sonyeondan ♥♥
Over my time of being a Kpop fan I had only watched a few drama's but I did not watch them regularly until a few months ago when I met a friend online who recommended me dozens of great dramas to watch and I am now going through that list watching each one - Although since I am starting exams it is hard to make time to watch them but I do manage to squeeze in a few extra episodes.

DAILYKENN.com -- Ever notice the regressive left lavishes pejoratives and hate speech — words such as RACIST, HOMOPHOBE, ISLAMOPHOBE, WHITE PRIVILEGE, BIGOT, etc. — on those it hates, but complains when someone uses the n-word?
That reality was underscored in Indianapolis where a complaint was filed following a simple prank.
Someone had arranged craft letters on a shelf to spell a racial pejorative. One woman took offense and posted a photo of the slur on Facebook.
The local media picked up the story, leading to gushing apologies from the store's upper management.
The offended woman is demanding an employee be fired.
While the regressive left seldom hesitates to offend with pejoratives such as those listed above, it seeks to use hate speech as a pretext to silence free speech; but only the hate speech it dislikes.
The regressive left displays dismay when it is offended; seldom when others are offended by their own hate speech.
Michaels craft store responded after a racist slur found at one of its Indianapolis stores went viral.
A Facebook user, Bridgette Drake, posted a photo of the word n—– spelled out on a shelf using craft letters.
When asked about the message, an employee laughed and said it was "hilarious," Drake wrote.
24-Hour News 8 reached out to Drake but did not hear back.
She said in her post the photo came from the store on East Washington Street.
She said she was offended and angry over the employee's response. — wishtv.com

All Stars Helping Kids sends a big THANK YOU to Justin Tuck, his wife Lauran, and their R.U.S.H. for Literacy program, which provides low-income children in Alabama, New York, New Jersey and California with access to age and culturally appropriate books to combat summer learning loss, and other efforts to close the educational opportunity gap that exists for low-income Americans.
R.U.S.H. for Literacy recently used the platform of Super Bowl 50 to provide a $250,000 grant to the Re(a)d Zone, a signature literacy initiative with partners from the 50 Fund, the legacy fund of the Super Bowl 50 Host Committee, and the Campaign for Grade-Level Reading.
We also want to give a warm congratulations to Justin who recently announced his retirement from the NFL. After 11 years, he's made a huge impact both on and off the field and has been admired by teammates and fans alike. All Stars Helping Kids is thankful to be part of this journey, and we look forward to continuing to partner with Justin and Lauran to combat the cycle of poverty for the children who need it most.
Thank you Justin and Lauran from the All Stars Helping Kids Team, Ronnie and Karen Lott, the Board of Directors, and especially the schools, kids, and families of our All Stars community!

3 Creative Ways to Accomplish Any Goal in the Next 100 Days
Get ready to be the best version of yourself.
Get ready to be the best version of yourself.
Abandon resolutions and embrace personal manifestos.
While many people are thinking about New Year's resolutions and goals, focusing more on completing incomplete tasks from last year may be a more successful strategy.
So maybe this time of not working isn't your ideal situation, it's still not the worst thing in the world. This is a great time for you to rediscover yourself and what you want to do with your life, and take the time to make yourself happy.
Let's think about "forever young" literally and the characteristics we all try to teach our children about how to be a good person. Presumably, we can take these same characteristics with us as adults. Here are some to consider.
After a recent trip as an exhibitor at a professional conference promoting the career opportunities for my organization, I gained some great insight into the conference life. Here are a few tips and suggestions for your next professional conference.
In four short weeks, the beginning of a new fiscal year will be upon us. Have you considered making resolutions, either career or personal goals, to kick-off Fiscal Year (FY) 2017?
Have you reached your limit with the presidential election? Are you looking for something else to occupy your time this summer? Why not use the next few months to start (or continue) setting career goals for yourself?
The lessons are simple are simple and powerful: the energy that connects us is critical; you must be yourself to achieve your best; and help others be their best selves.
What do you do when you can't achieve a goal for reasons outside your control?

Just got back from two days in the Detroit area. I was staying in the 'burbs, but was in downtown a lot of the time. Great place for eating, and a fascinating place to visit.
Bloomfield Hills: The Unique Deli, the restaurant at the Radisson where I was staying, was probably the best hotel restaurant I have ever seen. Perfect combination of Jewish Deli and Diner, friendly as can be, and perfectly cooked food: Turkey Rueben, Turkey Hash, Eggs, Lox, Salads that were wonderful. I wish this was next to my house.
Mexicantown: El Borzon. The menu is Mexican on the left side, Italian on the right side, delicious on both sides. A rollicking sort of place, all smiles. I had great Fritto Misto with a wonderful tangy tomato dipping sauce, a taco and gnocci, both solid and fresh ingredients, and a superb chicken pipian (green mole).
Clawson: Shilla, delicious Korean food. Great BBQ (not at the table), beef ribs, chicken. Wonderful little fried cod pieces (a Korean companion ordered everyting). Great Pan Chan (the little side dishes that are always there) especially a fish cake sliced thin and dressed with pepper and vinegar.
Dearborn El Ameer: Perfect Lebanese food. This is just scratching the surface of Dearborn. Go to the supermarket across the street as well, it's incredible.
Please go to Detroit and see for yourself. If you haven't been you can't imagine what the place looks like. It's easy to root for the place, because the people are so nice, and it's mind-boggling to try ti imagine what comes next for that city.

German chemical giant BASF and British group Ineos unveiled on Tuesday a joint venture to produce styrene, used to make plastics, as a way of turning their respective units into a separate entity.
The new company, to be called Styrolution, will regroup several units from both firms, have forecast annual sales of five billion euros (6.5 billion dollars), and be based in Frankfurt, a statement said.
BASF, which had already said it would spin off its styrenics activities by the end of this year, said it would retain control over the production of expandable polystyrene.
Styrene is a colourless liquid used in a wide variety of plastics.
Regulatory approval for the 50-50 joint venture is expected sometime next year, the statement said.
BASF employs around 1,460 people in its styrenics units, while Ineos has some 2,200 people working in the field.

Very biased comparison chart. It is in fact misleading the average user and gives misinformation about the other software that are compared to.
I will not trust your software because of this dishonesty.
Two comments
Dear Arimfe,
First, you're right. We put this comparison chart together a long time ago and it's no longer accurate. We will fix it. Thanks.
Second, you're free to draw your own conclusions based on the innacurate chart, however, it would be better for most users if your review was of the software, not the web site.

This past week marked the return and reopening of Marquee Nightclub in New York City, and what an amazing grand opening it was! The extravagant nightclub is truly an experience for the senses, and what better line-up for the launch week then a line-up for all crowds with Dubfire, Chuckie, and Sharam? Read on for House4DJ's full review, as we were luckily able to attend the grand opening of Marquee New York!
On first impression walking up to Marquee, the most noticeable things were the red carpet and velvet ropes at the entrance. If it was any sort of indicator to the star treatment that all of the guests must experience, we would have guessed correctly. The hospitality at Marquee was out of this world, something not frequently experienced at a typical New York City nightclub (and nightclubs are everywhere in NYC). Every staff member, from VIP and bartenders to security guards are friendly and courteous, and they will straight up ask you if you are enjoying yourself and having fun! From the entrance you are escorted to coat check, and eventually into the nightclub itself; it doesn't matter if you're VIP or general admission, everyone is treated with respect! The crowd itself is a beautiful sight, as the venue is very exclusive, with a classy crowd consisting of models and very well dressed people. The best part about it all is that everyone there, VIP or not, was there for the music and dancing.
The club itself is made of sights and sounds that you really have to experience yourself to believe: from the phenomenal Funktion One sound system that can withstand any bass and boom (as Dubfire proved by putting it to the test), to the disco ball surrounded by a cage of lights, lasers, and actual marquee-like screens around, above, and behind the DJ booth, Marquee's foundation is a sensory overload. Adding to the experience are the dancers that can be found on catwalks surrounding the club. At any given moment, you can expect to see at least 5 dancers around you, and after their sets they are constantly switched out by 5 more! The costumes are also extravagant, ranging in anything from bright neon funkadelic spandex to black and white checkered costumes with gold unicorn horns (this really reminded us of Marquee in Las Vegas, which was a nice added touch).
The public grand opening party on January 18th was headlined by none other than the techno king Dubfire himself, who has finally made his triumphant return to New York City (the last two Dubfire parties in the area were sadly shut down) and giving us all the mind blowing set we have been longing for! Starting off the night right was New York City's own Sleepy & Boo, the duo that heads Basic NYC, the promotional team large in part for bringing Dubfire and other tech house/deep house/techno legends to Marquee on their resident Friday nights! Dropping nothing but funky and groovy tunes all night (including Joris Voorn's remix to Swedish House Mafia's Don't You Worry Child, which we went nuts for) set the tone right for Dubfire, who took over the decks around 1:30am for a tremendous set.
Notorious for playing massive and technical live sets, Dubfire's set at Marquee could have stood up against his recent set from this year's BPM Festival (we personally found his set to be one of the best from BPM, although the music there overall was unparalleled to others). Dropping tracks heard recently from his release called A Transmission, as well as plenty of jaw-dropping IDs (one of them a bomb of a track that sounds like it may have been produced by The Junkies – more on this release soon), it goes without saying that New York City finally got to see and hear Dubfire the way they've deserved!
On the following Friday January 25, H4DJ saw the Yoshitoshi label boss Sharam take control at Marquee for another unforgettable night of music. Dropping nothing but groove and funk all night, Sharam's raw set was chock full of beats and bass, and it was great to see a crowd that danced non-stop all night! Vocals were few and far between, but when acapellas were dropped, they were classics like Jodeci's R&B classic Freak'n You (the hook at the end) and John Creamer & Stephane K's I Wish You Were Here. Sharam also wowed the crowd by dropping a personal favorite, Don't Say A Word. A nice added twist to this event was that the VIP sections on the main floor were cut smaller, and the balconies upstairs that were open to all during the Dubfire event were held exclusively for VIP only, giving the main floor more space to dance without crowding people's tables, allowing the VIP more intimacy as well.
Unfortunately we weren't able to attend the event with Chuckie, but it is safe to say that the revamped Marquee is definitely going to be one of New York City nightlife's biggest hot spots! The partially revealed line-up for the next few weeks at Marquee is stellar, and we can't wait to see what surprises are in store over the next few months!
A big thank you to Marquee and all involved for letting House4DJ.com attend these events, and stay tuned for more information and reviews on Marquee New York. Have a look below at the upcoming dates and events at this awesome nightclub!

It captures the richness of a truly prosperous life and with it seeks to re-define the way we measure national success, changing the conversation from what we are getting to who we are becoming. This makes it an authoritative measure of human progress, offering a unique insight into how prosperity is forming and changing across the world.
A nation's prosperity has traditionally been measured by macroeconomic indicators of wealth such as average income per person, GDP per capita. In moving to "GDP and beyond" to cover both wealth and wellbeing, and not just one or the other, the Prosperity Index faces the challenge of finding a meaningful measure of national success. This is something that the Legatum Institute has striven to achieve with academic and analytical rigour over the past decade.

As far back as I can remember I was labeled as a daydreamer and underachiever in school. Guilty as charged on both counts. Although I excelled in things I was extremely interested in, such as creative writing, art, and music (Which are 3 subjects that seem to have been low priority in my public school in the 70s), everything else seemed like climbing Mount Everest, just to finish simplest homework assignment. In an effort to retain the last drops of self-esteem the public school system hadn't yet drained me of, I resorted to drugs and started a rock 'n roll band. Awesome career choice, right?
I managed to eke out a living as a musician playing in taverns until my early 20s, and work some odd jobs while my band wrote an album's worth of material to give the music thang one more shot. At that time, My girlfriend moved in with me and before long (surprise) she was pregnant. I was just beginning to do some heavy soul-searching that year. Whereas before that I would've just told her to have an abortion and moved on with the party, now with my newfound Christian faith I just couldn't do that. I asked her to marry me, and it was the best decision of my life. We are still married to this day. I'd like to say happily ever after, and for the most part it has been… except for a little thing called ADHD.
The funny thing about ADHD when you don't know you have it, your behavior often seems perfectly normal to you. Although I'm glad we were married young, most people put a little more thought into getting married than I did. A common trait of ADHD is being impulsive. Looking back on my life I could go on for hours about crazy things I did, most likely due to impulsivity. As Dr. Edward "Ned" Hollowell, a leading ADHD expert says "..if your impulsive, that's bad… you don't know what you're going to do next, you're a gun that fires without aiming…and sure enough impulsivity can be dangerous, but, what is creativity? but impulsivity gone right. You don't plan to have a creative thought... you don't say it's 10 o'clock. Time for my creative thought, and lay it like an egg. Creative thoughts necessarily pop… they are impulsive, spontaneous… they depend on your being somewhat disinhibited."
Another common trait of those with ADHD is having a hard time focusing when someone is speaking to them for any length of time. After decades of working labor type jobs to support my family. I finally discovered that creative type jobs paid more and were much more suited to me. Not knowing these ADHD traits were hardwired into my genetic code caused a lot of grief in my life. My biggest nightmare was when a factory supervisor would come over on the noisy floor and rattle off a paragraph of instructions that he expected me to do without having to repeat himself. I lost more jobs than I can count due to that one trait, and not knowing what caused it, or how to fix it.
That brings me back to the title of this article, How I Made a Six Figure Income with Untreated Adult ADD. My dirty little secret is that it only happened once in my entire life. But when you have ADD you hang on to those victories, no matter how short lived. A few years ago I got an estimate of my Social Security income from the government. It went back all the way to my earliest jobs and year-by-year it listed my income. If I turned that list into a bar chart, it would look like a roller coaster because my income varied so much throughout my life. I probably don't have to tell you how hard that must been for my wife and family. After being diagnosed with ADHD, the level of understanding and empathy for each other has grown tremendously. And with treatment, there is now hope that the roller coaster ride is finally over. Yes, ADHD is real and has a equally real impact on society.

In Counterspy players must prevent the U.S. and USSR from going to war by completing various missions that will roll back the Doomsday Clock, a device that indicates how close the player is to all-out war.
Combining the spy mythology and bold aesthetics of the 1950's and 1960's and set during the Cold War, CounterSpy™ focuses on the rogue third spy agency, C.O.U.N.T.E.R., that keeps the world's super powers at bay. Just as each side of the ongoing conflict gets close to unleashing a blow of earthshaking proportions, C.O.U.N.T.E.R. jumps into action, stealthily sabotaging their dastardly plans and deceptively maintaining world peace.
– Play on PS4™, PS3™ or PS Vita systems as a member of C.O.U.N.T.E.R. or on the go with the mobile version as a "field operative"
– Unique, slick, and stylized visuals capture the spirit and feel of the 1950's and 60's era and complement the equally smooth side-scrolling cover-based shooting gameplay

Possible Top 10 for 2014 NFL draft
So, the 2013 draft is just over, and we're already talking about the Class of 2014? Well, sure. While the 2013 draft roster featured a lot of outstanding linemen on both sides of the ball and a relative lack of truly elite skill position guys, next year's group looks to have a great deal of talent at just about every position -- and a far more impressive set of quarterbacks at or near the top. We'll be writing much more about these gentlemen, of course, but here are 10 to watch for the 2014 draft -- and our buddy Frank Schwab has 10 more prospects of interest. -- Doug Farrar, Yahoo! Sports

The New York developer and reality television star is second among 2016 presidential candidates in a new Suffolk University poll of New Hampshire Republicans – behind only former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.
The poll of 500 likely GOP presidential primary voters found 14% back Mr. Bush. Mr. Trump is right behind at 11%. Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio come next, with 8% and 7%, respectively. The poll tested 19 GOP candidates – a rare survey that included ultra-longshots like Mark Everson and former Govs. Bob Ehrlich and Jim Gilmore.The upcoming debates featuring the Donald are going to be incredible. I'm already warming up the popcorn. Err...actually, I guess a wide assortment of nuts might be the more appropriate snack for such must-see TV.
UPDATE! That's not all folks! Trumpmentum is a nationwide phenomenon.

Windies too strong for Ireland
Devon Smith's patient century and Kieron Pollard's quickfire 94 guided the West Indies to a 44-run victory in their World Cup Group B match against Ireland in Mohali.
Opener Smith scored 107 off 133 balls to set up Pollard's 55-ball blitz, which helped the West Indies recover admirably from 130 for three in 32 overs to reach 275 all out.
Ed Joyce (84 off 106) and Gary Wilson (61 off 62) kept giant-killers Ireland in the hunt, but a late collapse saw them bowled out for 231.
Sulieman Benn (four for 53) and Darren Sammy (three for 31) shared seven wickets between them for the Windies.
The West Indies started steadily after being asked to bat first thanks to an 89-run stand between openers Smith and Shivnarine Chanderpaul.
A double strike from Kevin O'Brien then saw off Chanderpaul (35 off 62) and new man Darren Bravo (nought). Ramnaresh Sarwan (10) went cheaply but Smith and Pollard took the battle to the opposition with their blistering stand, which helped the Windies regain momentum.
The duo scored 89 runs off just 63 balls before O'Brien saw off a tired Smith seven runs after reaching his maiden one-day century.
West Indies scored 55 in the batting powerplay as Pollard completed his third one-day 50 off just 35 balls and added 36 off 20 for the seventh wicket with Andre Russell.
They were eventually bowled out for 275 off the last ball of the innings, O'Brien finishing with four for 71.
In reply, Joyce and Wilson kept Ireland in the game but they then lost wickets at regular intervals and were eventually dismissed for 231 with six balls remaining.

Fans of the New York Yankees have been waiting every year since 2011 for pitcher Ivan Nova to take the next step in becoming a top of the rotation guy. Everyone knows he has the stuff, but consistency has hindered him from climbing the rank to being an ace. After Nova's dreadful start to the 2014 season, the 27-year-old righty has proven he will never be more than average.
A top of the rotation pitcher takes the ball every fifth day and the team knows what he will bring every time — Nova has not been that. Over the course of his career, Nova's month-to-month ERA has been about as consistent as Alex Rodriguez's playing time. Along with his irregularities, Nova has yet to endure the length of a 162-game season without hitting the disabled list. Every year since 2012, Nova has been on the 15-day DL at one point or another.
In his most recent outing, Nova exited in the bottom of the fifth inning with elbow soreness. The Dominican native surrendered eight runs to the Tampa Bay Rays while giving up four home runs, the most in a single game in his career. Two of his earned runs were credited after his departure, as reliever Matt Daley imploded on the mound and allowed both runners Nova had left on base to score.
Nova's most recent injury will still be a major blow to the team as he is the best option the Yankees have among the alternatives of Vidal Nuno, David Phelps or possibly Alfredo Aceves to stand-in during his absence. However, after the subpar beginning to his fourth full season in MLB, I believe Yankees fans are safe to let go of whatever pending optimism is being held for Nova's unlikely crescendo.
Masahiro Tanaka and Michael Pineda are playing the game with ease and represent the bright future for the Yankees' pitching staff. I wouldn't go as far to say that Nova will bust similarly to Phil Hughes, but ultimately his impact will not outreach Hughes' by much. Yankee fans will hope I'm wrong, but I think if the real Nova was imminent, he should have already arrived in this, his fourth major-league season.
