Food Hygiene Rating Scheme
Newport City Council has adopted the National Food Hygiene Rating Scheme to help consumers make an informed choice about where to eat out.
Food outlets are inspected, unannounced, by Environmental Health Officers, to check hygiene standards and operating procedures, which are then rated on a scale from 0 (urgent improvement necessary) to 5 (very good).
These 'Scores on Doors' are an indication of how hygienic and well-managed the food preparation is at each food premises.
The venues listed on this website have been inspected and achieved a rating of 3 (generally satisfactory) or more.
View food premises ratings| (opens new website) and search by post code e.g. NP20, the word "Newport" (your search will pull through businesses in other Newports!), by restaurant name or by using the map.

Arizona teen arrested for allegedly assaulting up to 18 girls
Published on May 3, 2014 5:51 PM
PHOENIX (REUTERS) - An Arizona high school student has been arrested on suspicion of sexually assaulting up to 18 girls and threatening to kill victims and witnesses, the Pinal County Sheriff's office said.
Tyler Kost, 18, was being held without bond after being arrested on Thursday, suspected of assaults on high school students between early 2011 and last month, the sheriff's office said. One of the alleged victims was 13 years old, it said.
"Tyler Kost was a predator who threatened, harassed, stalked and then either forcibly sexually abused or sexually assaulted his victims," Sheriff Paul Babeu said in a statement.
Kost's attorney did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

This guy is at best an ambulance chaser - he is a lacky for a "credit collection agency" where the lead attorney who has been disbarred owns the joint. His best game is address boo-boos. If you live at 123 Main Street he sends all the correspondence to 132 Main Street and claims that he never heard from you. Ask him or the firm to provide proof of the original contract and he becomes indigent and has all sorts of reasons why not. He has an office on the VFW Parkway in West Roxbury, MA that he shares with another fraud that has daily USPS service - but makes the choice to operate from a post office box in the same zip code (02132) but lists his city as Boston, MA. The real name of the corporation that has been shut down before all the new reiterations is Norfolk Financial Corp.

Listen to this one-sided battle of Bluster vs Brains -- too bad it is only a lone newscaster who gives Joe "what for" on behave of his fellow environmentally-friendly Canadians ...
Joe Oliver vs. Scientist (James Hansen)
Apr 24, 2013
link to video
Oliver slams scientist's oilsands claims as 'nonsense' (source of Video)
CBC News, www.cbc.ca/news -- Apr 24, 2013
[Canada's Natural Resources Minister, Joe] Oliver, in Washington, D.C., to shore up support for the Keystone XL pipeline, took aim at scientist James Hansen, who has been a vocal opponent of developing the oilsands. "It does not advance the debate when people make exaggerated comments that are not rooted in the facts. And he should know that," Oliver said to reporters, following a speech to the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
In an op-ed piece for the New York Times last year, Hansen claimed that "if Canada proceeds [with oilsands development], and we do nothing, it will be game over for the climate."
Oliver countered that when a source of energy represents 1/1000th of global emissions, "to say it's the end of the planet if that's developed is nonsense."
He added that "crying wolf all the time" does not advance the serious debate.
PS. Joe Oliver is on a US tour today and tomorrow to persuade Congress and the new DOI Secretary -- that letting the KeyStone XL pipeline tread across ours lands is actually good for us and good for the planet.
Hmmm? I wonder where his portfolio is invested?
NASA's James Hansen, Leaving Post to Fight Climate Change Full Time
'As a government employee, you can't testify against the government.'
by Jon Queally, staff writer, Common Dreams -- April 2, 2013
In a letter to 350.org supporters Monday night, McKibben, always the activist, urged members to honor Hansen's commitment by submitting a personal comment against the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline which is still under review at the State Department:
Sending a message to the State Department might not seem like much, but I think it's actually quite fitting tribute.
One reason we're fighting the pipeline is because Jim Hansen did the math to show that if we combusted the tar sands on top of all else we burn, it would be "game over for the climate." So far that message hasn't gotten through: the State Department hired a bunch of compromised oil industry analysts to 'review' KXL, and unsurprisingly they decided it would have 'minimal' environmental impact. We need to get them to take reality seriously, and change that assessment.
NASA's Hansen Explains Decision to Join Keystone Pipeline Protests
"Einstein said to think and not act is a crime," James Hansen tells SolveClimate News. "If we understand the situation, we must try to make it clear."
by Elizabeth McGowan, InsideClimate News, insideclimatenews.org -- Aug 29, 2011
[...]"If released all at once, the known tar sands" would kick our 390 ppm up to 540 ppm
SolveClimate News: You have referred to Keystone XL as the "fuse to the biggest carbon bomb on the planet." What actual effect would it have on the amount of carbon dioxide in the air?
James Hansen: If released all at once, the known tar sands resource is equivalent to 150 parts per million. As is the case with other fossil fuel sources, the amount in the air declines to about 20 percent after 1,000 years. Of course, only a small fraction of the resource is economically recoverable at the moment. But if you decide you are going to continue your addiction and build a big pipeline to Texas, the economically extractable oil will steadily grow over time. Moreover the known resources would grow because there is plenty more to be discovered.
Every seller will tell you his pile of pollution is small compared to the total pile on Earth, and that is correct. What makes tar sands particularly odious is that the energy you get out in the end, per unit carbon dioxide, is poor. It's equivalent to burning coal in your automobile. We simply cannot be that stupid if we want to preserve a planet for our children and grandchildren.
-- the goal is 350 ppm ... 540 is another way of saying game over.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MrsCarito from Bye Bye Brushes I don't use sponges ever. I hate them all. I don't use powder puffs. I hate them all. Ok, well, until now. I got these in my luxe looks kit and tucked them away for relatives in my makeup bag for when we go on vaca because I just knew I wouldn't use them. Well the fuzzy texture on the light coverage side got the best of me and I tested one out this morning. Only I used the full coverage side on my face because I have bad rosacea but i still got to touch the fuzzy. Holy cow! What an amazing sponge! Not at all like those flimsy wedges that fall apart. I LOVE a sponge. I just bought like every single brush in E.L.F. line too. I may have wasted my money. However, they are decent brushes, I'll probably use them for other stuff, but for liquid, this sponge is amazing. You can stipple, you can swipe and you will get thick coverage with the full coverage side which I have never gotten with a sponge. I used mine with the acne foundation. They are an awesome pair for you ladies who need heavy coverage.

Rated 1 out of 5 by EstaW from Not impressed Waste of time and makeup, these soak up the foundation alright, but don't put any on your face !
Date published: 2015-02-05
Rated 5 out of 5 by Shelby M from Pleasantly surprised I originally bought these sponges for applying my face paint for halloween, but ended up not using them. I decided to use them for my regular make up and absolutely loved them. I was really surprised at how nicely they worked and the amount of coverage I got, and how smooth the coverage was. I use the "fuzzy" side and it really provides a smooth, flawless look. I usually use brushes, but have switched over to using these sponges instead. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to maybe try something different from their regular sponges and brushes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by smithsm from I bought these hoping they would be the same as the sponge that comes in the e.l.f. mattifying powder so i could replace mine - but these are so much better and now I use them to apply my BB cream and smooth out anything that needs blending! I don't use the lighter coverage side for much but it does feel nice on my hand, and the sponge cleans easily - I just do it every week or so with baby shampoo and that gets most of it out and lets me reuse the sponge over and over. These are the only sponges I buy anymore!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jessie2013 from Surprised After purchasing this initially thinking it would be a regular make up sponge, I was surprised to find that there was a velvet-like side to these. After trying it, I was even more surprised at how airbrushed and beautiful the foundation looked. This will be a repurchase!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by maritzasoto41 from amazing! love these sponges makes application so nice and easy.
Date published: 2014-08-06
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nile from Wonderful I love these!! They are the only ones I use, and always come back for these when I need make up sponges (to me, they don't feel like sponges).I only use them for powder and it works great, and makes the application very smooth. (Haven't tried them with liquid foundation.)Thank you e.l.f.!
Date published: 2014-06-09
Rated 5 out of 5 by DeenaBeena from Beats every other base applicator I've ever used!! The quality of these sponges can be felt the minute you take one out of the package. I've tried all the cheap sponges, mid-grade sponges and even an expensive foundation brush from Mary Kay---none of them come close to accomplishing what these do:The "full coverage" side does exactly what it says and distributes liquid foundation (I have not tried these with powders) fully and evenly and the absorption is just slight enough to help prevent caking or rubbing of the makeup. What's even better is that because of the quality of the sponge, it acts like a smoother, gentler version of your own fingertips--you can be even more light and gentle while applying foundation because the sponge really does do the work for you; I'd say they're healthier to use and less wrinkle-inducing!?The "light" coverage side of the sponge is extremely soft! I use it for touching up things like the corners of my eyes or spots where concealer needs a little assistance blending or swiping up smudges from fallout without messing up the foundation underneath. It does exactly what it says and the slight fluffy softness is perfect for those more "delicate" jobs. Plus, and I know this may sound silly, but it's the side of the spongewhere your fingers will be primarily resting, so even just holding the sponge is great. LolThe package advises to use e.l.f's brush shampoo regularly and lay it flat to dry. I can attest that you will get long life out of these, and if you get lazy with the cleaning, another beautiful bonus is that they are so inexpensive (moreso here than through Amazon or Walmart, even!)

Hello everyone,
I own a streetka and I'm facing two problems.
The first one is that very rarely the roof button does not work. It may stop for some hours, but the next day it works flawlessly.
The next problem is that I recently found heavy moisture, water basically, under both carpets in the cabin. I faced that problem last year, but I visited a garage where they supposedly fixed something regarding the A/C. Now again though. I located water coming from both sides at the central console where the feet are.
Any ideas?
Thanks for your help,

Customer Raves & Reviews
Love Them!
It was so easy to change the favor tags to the exact color combination I wanted for my wedding. I also loved how it allowed me to change the wording to fit my needs as well instead of making me use the default wording. Amazing! Love them and can't wait for my guests to see them at my wedding!
Perfect for Dance Invite
We ordered this invitation for our "Party Only" guests since we had a small venue and intimate wedding. We ordered the "Bold Statement" Pockets for the Main invitations so these were a PERFECT compliment! I would definitely recommend these!
We love them. They are perfect for our wedding. It was very easy to customize. We've never seen anything like them.
Great Experience!
My husband and I are both designers so we thought about making our own wedding invitations, until we found Magnet Street - why reinvent the wheel?? They have a great variety of designs and I was shocked at the level of personalization. They came out exactly how we wanted them and the user interface was very straightforward and easy to use. We just got everything in the mail yesterday (invitations, envelopes, RSVP postcards and inserts) and they look amazing!!! The card stock is really good quality, and they came in a gorgeous (magnetic!!) box, well packed so nothing could possibly get bent. I would absolutely use them again!!
Modern Elegance
I LOVE my invitations. I personalized them to have our logo replace the logo that originally came on the front of the invitation. I removed the arrows on the front as well but left the ones inside. I changed the colors multiple times and the final result is perfect. I love that you can request custom changes to make your invite exactly what you want. I was even called to make sure my numbers were correct because I ordered less of one product (on purpose). The service and speed were right on target and the cost point could not have been better. The coupons are fabulous and so is the quality. My invitations cost half of what my sister-in-laws cost from an invitation shop. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Space battles on Advanced are good.
But, the difficulty of ground missions on Advanced difficulty is too much. I don't really enjoy being constantly one-shotted by some anonymous ensign baddie every time I encounter a group. Not to mention that ONE of their photon grenades can wipe out EVERY turret I have at once. I've had my team completely killed off in
under 4 seconds
on multiple instances. You can't say that I'm just not 'doing it right' when something like that happens.
Cryptic really needs to fix the discrepancy between the difficulties in space/ground on Advanced. I'd play on Advanced more if the ground difficulty wasn't so out of proportion.

Saturday, April 4 marked the 2015 Kids Spring Fest as over 1,000 kids and adults gathered at Kerr Park for a fun day under the sun. The ninth annual event, presented by City of Oakdale and the Kiwanis Club, held four separate egg hunts for kids in varying age groups, up to age 12, along with lunch, games and prize drawings among other activities for both kids and adults.
One in four adults, or approximately 61.5 million Americans, have an experience with mental illness in a given year. With a current estimated population of over 21,000 within the Oakdale City limits that's over 5,000 Oakdale community members who will be affected by mental illness in some way.

|Finite element analysis and experimental comparison of doubly reinforced concrete slabs subjected to blast loads
|Vasudevan, Anirudha Kadambi
|University of Missouri--Kansas City
|In the design of concrete structures, it has become important to understand the response of concrete as a structural material when subjected to large stresses and strain rates through explosive loadings. In order to do that, any researcher has to study the dynamic nonlinear responses of individual structural components like beams, slabs, and columns of an entire building system. Also, advances in finite element modeling and analysis have further enhanced interest in studying the behavior and response of these individual components towards dynamic loadings and arrive at certain answers that can make them stronger and consequently serve the primary purpose of saving lives of people. The primary objective of this research is to study numerically, the response of both high strength concrete and normal strength concrete panels reinforced with double mat high strength low alloy vanadium (HSLA-V) reinforcement. A numerical validation by comparing with experimental data , using two pre-defined concrete material models namely, Winfrith Concrete Model and Concrete Damage Model Release 3 in LSDYNA is performed in order to study the model capabilities and limitations of the models so that these material models may be used as an alternative to expensive field testing for blast protection in structures. From the study it was concluded that, both the models gave deflection values that compared well with the experimental results in the normal strength (4 ksi) concrete category. However, the Winfrith Concrete Model provided a better response in terms of deflection and crack propagation than the Concrete Damage Model Release 3 in the high strength concrete (15.5 ksi) category.

Russian navy to add three landing vessels in 2015: Report
Published on Mar 4, 2014 4:14 PM
MOSCOW (REUTERS) - The Russian navy will add three new large landing ships next year to the 19 already in service, Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu was quoted as saying on Tuesday.
The Russian navy is under scrutiny during a widening international crisis over Crimea, a region with an ethnic Russian majority in Ukraine which Moscow has effectively wrestled from Kiev in recent days, causing outrage in the West.
President Vladimir Putin has ordered troops involved in a military exercise in central and western Ukraine back to base, a move that appeared intended to help ease tension.
But the timing of Mr Shoigu's comments signalled Moscow was still flexing its muscles, underlining Moscow's commitment to building up its armed forces in coming years.

Anna Papadopoulos | December 7, 2005 | Comments
Behavioral targeting from the consumer's perspective -- and what marketers can learn from it.
My initial experience as a behavioral targeting recipient was in December 2004, while I was preparing for my wedding. For the next several weeks, I must have viewed 700 ads from one particular bridal advertiser. About 75 percent of the ads were for wedding dresses and 25 percent were for veils. To confirm I was being behaviorally targeted, I refreshed my cookies midpoint and repeated the process. Sure enough, there were the same banners, which had become fixtures in my mailbox.
As marketers, it's easy to disconnect from the consumer experience. So for better or worse, here are my thoughts on behavioral targeting after experiencing it as the consumer.
Match Made in Heaven
Over 2.2 million newly engaged couples enter the U.S. marketplace each year and, as a result, enter the biggest spending period of their lives. For marketers, this is a huge behavioral targeting opportunity. Not only are consumers in-market for various services and products, they're also using the Internet to research and purchase these services.
Like most soon-to-be brides, I started on well-known bridal sites, such as WeddingChannel.com, The Knot, and Modern Bride. I also visited other sites for products I was now in-market for, including a new car, furniture, and travel. Throughout the process, I maintained regular access to my established list of bookmarked sites for email, news, and weather.
As a result of my behavior, I was the perfect candidate for behavioral targeting. Any savvy advertiser (such as the one who targeted me) would jump on the opportunity for the following reasons:
'Till Death Do Us Part
'Till death do us part may work in wedding vows, but beware of it as an advertising mantra. One fear about behavioral targeting is advertisers will stalk consumers. Such concerns aren't completely unwarranted. In my experience, frequency, messaging, and timing are the three main weaknesses.
Frequency overload, particularly for the same message, was an issue. On any given day, I'd see the same ad at least five times. That's the same ad, day after day, for approximately three months, including one month when I was completely out of market. Frequency caps and reports are critical when employing behavioral targeting.
Message association was also awry. Although I visited a wedding site, I didn't visit the dress or veil section. Therefore, dress and veil ads didn't correspond with my behavior. You wouldn't serve an ad for the Jaguar XJ-Series to someone shopping for a Dodge Neon. Or worse, serve an auto ad to someone searching for a bicycle. If the advertiser is going to make an inference and test an associated message (which isn't always a bad idea), he needs to be extra mindful of consumer reaction (or lack of it) to the ad.
Consumers aren't in-market forever. Even if this advertiser had targeted me after I visited the dress section, it should have been mindful that I wouldn't be shopping indefinitely. One indication would be my lack of response to the ad. Another would have been that I hadn't visited the dress section in months.
Publishers should keep a behavioral profile of customers that shows their evolution. Most engagements last 14 months and follow a similar purchase path, from bridal dress to honeymoons. Publishers should segment groups and offer those segments to advertisers for behavioral targeting. They should continue to update these segments based on timing and new behavior patterns.
In my consumer and marketer experiences, we throw behavioral targeting out there and hope for the best. We must collectively start compiling best practices by category and applying planning principals and technology around them to garner the best results. This type of collaboration is the only way we're going to get consumers to say, "I do."

hi! need help urgently with italy travel.
sorry to sound so desperate. we were planning a trip sometime in june but have to change it ti may 16th. well we fly to london for a day. we had intended on visiting lake como area and dolomites specifically during this trip. i am kinda having a hard time on deciding where to go. i thought it was going to be london to venice on 18th of may and go to bellagio the same day. spend a night in bellagio and then head to some place beautiful in dolomites.now from my internet research, it looks like if i fly to milan from london, i will probably get to lake como area quickly. and then i am questioning whether we should really stay in bellagio. reason we are travelling with an infant and looks like we have to take a ferry to bellagio once we get to the train stations in como. is that right. we are looking for convenience as well.and don't mind if we can station at some place in lake como easy to set a base and then go to places like bellagio. please correct me if i am wrong. next my big question is how to get to teh most beautiful part of dolomites and where to stay keeping convenience in getting to the place like direct access by train and also beauty. we don't mind taking a taxi if its a short ride from train station but takinga boat with baby, stroller and a suitcase will not be fun. so please advise where to go next from lake como to the dolomites so we can make our way to venice on may 21st and head back to usa on may 22nd.
any advise, suggestions will be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance!

Bush, however, does not see a civil war; lashes out at critics
New York: United States President George W. Bush on Saturday denied that Iraq was plunging into civil war, just a day after the Pentagon painted a bloody picture of a nation caught in a spiral of increasing violence.
His statement appears to widen the gap between the political message coming from a White House concerned about upcoming mid-term elections and a military establishment fearful of getting caught in another Vietnam.
In his weekly radio address to the nation, Mr. Bush lashed out at critics of the war and portrayed the conflict in Iraq as an integral part of the war on terror. He said the country was not sliding into civil war.
"Our commanders and diplomats on the ground believe that Iraq has not descended into a civil war. They report that only a small number of Iraqis are engaged in sectarian violence" .
At odds with report
That may be true, but the tone of Mr. Bush's speech was deeply at odds with a Pentagon report released late on Friday, which showed Iraqi casualties had soared by more than 50 per cent in recent months. The Pentagon often releases bad news late in the week in order to minimise press coverage and the study certainly made for grim reading.
"Death squads and terrorists are locked in mutually reinforcing cycles of sectarian strife," it noted. The report added that civil war was a possibility in Iraq, which seemed to jar with the message from the White House and top Republican politicians. Mr. Bush insisted that the war in Iraq would be won by American and Iraqi armed forces.
"The security of the civilised world depends on victory in the war on terror, and that depends on victory in Iraq, so America will not leave until victory is achieved".
Mr. Bush's radio address was a re-hash of a speech he delivered in Salt Lake City last week.
Republican strategists, including Mr. Bush's political guru Karl Rove, believe that focusing on national security will allow them to claw back support in November, because voters tend to favour the Republicans on defence. However, recent polls have shown that support cracking and Democrats have become noticeably more strident in their criticism of the war, in the belief that public opinion is now firmly against it.

God as "a big black woman" in THE SHACK, a new million copy bestseller
with your mouth open like your pants are full,"
and headed across the deck, talking the whole time.
"Come and talk to me while I get supper on."
Here's an overview: The book tells the story of the spiritual awakening of Mackenzie Phillips, whose daughter is abducted by a serial killer while on a family camping trip. Evidence of the crime is discovered in a rundown old shack in the woods. Years later, a still grieving Mackenzie receives an unusual note inviting him to meet "Papa" at the shack.
Curious, Mackenzie goes and discovers three people: "Papa," a middle-aged black woman with a Southern accent, who also calls herself Elousia; Jesus, a Middle Eastern young man; and "Sarayu," a mysterious (and hard to see) Asian woman. These three, who turn out to be God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, invite Mackenzie to spend the weekend in the shack. He does, resulting in the opportunity for long conversations and the chance to ask all of the hard questions revolving around his recent tragedy.
I don't want to give much away, but there are lots of mystical occurrences, revelations about God's nature and how the Trinity functions, and a "did it really happen?" twist at the end.
As you can imagine, The Shack has been pretty controversial in evangelical Christian circles. Reaction is polarized, with gushing praise ("it changed my life and I'm buying a copy for everyone I know") to passionate denouncements ("it's heresy; read it and burn"). One of the
most clear and cogent non-endorsements comes from well known Seattle pastor Mark
Driscoll, who has labeled the book as pro-goddess worship.
I just finished reading The Shack, and here's what I like:
- God is portrayed as personal, loving, full of grace and forgiveness, and anxious for relationship with Mackenzie. This is a God who repeatedly tells His children, "I'm especially fond of you."
- Anyone who's experienced a tragedy can relate to Mackenzie's overwhelming grief and anger at God. The book attempts to address the question of evil, and why bad things happen to good people.
- The author has the guts to tackle a subject that is nigh untouchable in evangelical circles–how to understand a Triune God and how the Trinity might work.
- Because of the controversial subject matter, Christian publishers wouldn't take it, and general market publishers were leery of the blatant Christian content. So, the author self-published it! I love that, and that it's been a success.
- Much like The Da Vinci Code, the ruckus surrounding the book gives people of faith a chance to talk about what we believe. I'm of the mind that anything that gets us thinking about the character of God and talking about how He works in our lives is a good thing. In the current culture, it's almost anathema to talk about Jesus outside the walls of the church; it's as if it's in poor taste or reveals us as intolerant.
Here's what I don't like about The Shack:
- The "did it happen or not?" dream twist, an overused device that often shows up in tired TV shows.
- God the father is not a person, but a spirit. He is personified and fully present in Jesus. Period. He can't be characterized as a black woman, a white woman, or any other kind of woman. It's just so limiting. I think it's a very false picture of an all powerful, all knowing, omnipresent, holy Creator God. It's a little something like
trying to bottle and label a massive forest fire.
- Further, God is who he is. You can't just create your own pleasing image (whether it's a woman, a man, a puppy, or a flower) and force him to conform to that image just to increase your comfort level.
- Putting words in God's mouth is foolish. Who are we to put ourselves in God's place and say what we think he might say? God has already spoken. He took great care to make sure his words were delivered flawlessly through the prophets, through the Bible, and through Jesus himself. Here's a quote from Annie Dillard on our sometimes too casual approach to God:
on a
packaged tour of the Absolute? …
Does anyone have the foggiest idea
what sort of power we blithely invoke?
Or, as I suspect, does no one
believe a word of it?
…we should all be wearing crash helmets."
–Annie Dillard, Teaching a Stone to Talk
- When God has spoken, it's precise, it's logical and clear, it's consistent, and often unexpected. But the God of The Shack is talky, long winded, touchy-feely, and sometimes folksy (a slangy Southern accent comes and goes).
- The Trinity is portrayed as a "circle of life" type community with no hierarchy. The three are just very, very good friends. The Bible, however, shows Jesus willingly submitting himself to God's authority. Jesus said repeatedly that he did what God the Father asked him to do. Portraying themselves as Father and Son in Scripture creates a very clear picture of hierarchy.
My pastor read the book and said people who read it need to know their theology. I'd agree; like any other book with spiritual content, read it, but don't swallow it. The author, after all, is only human and The Shack is not a revelation.
But don't lose sleep over it either; God doesn't need us to defend him. He's already spoken.

Hi, Susy. I've been checking in on your blog periodically. Thanks for an insightful review of The Shack. Although I didn't get particularly emotional when I read it, I too liked that Young depicted "Papa" as being interested in Mack in a very personal way. But I haven't been able to accurately convey the author's portrayal of the Trinity in conversation. Thanks for the help.
I never saw a connection to goddess worship. But there could be a danger of falling into tri-theology if one didn't have a good theological base while reading it.
God bless!
TinaJuly 7, 2008
Susy, thank you for your thoughtful and insightful review. Our church is using the book as the basis for discussion in our adult Sunday school class for the next two weeks. I was feeling a bit of trepidation in expressing some of the same thoughts you have written here. I found your assessment encouraging and affirming and no longer feel narrow-minded in my own grappling with Young's theological viewpoint. I appreciate the perspective you bring to the topic of women and the church, and your passion for Scriptural integrity. Thank You!

Interesting and thoughtful analysis, and very helpful. I have not read The Shack yet (i'm probably the only person in America who hasn't read it, or who hasn't decided not to read it).
One thing I'd challenge you on, though, is your hierarchical view of the Trinity. While Jesus does submit to the Father, all three members of the trinity demonstrate biblical mutual submission. They exist in community, indeed, they are a model of community. they all three serve one another, and submit to one another, just as we who are created in the image of God are to do. (Eph.5:21).
Sue CramerAugust 11, 2008
Thank you so much for sharing this truth. I have been wondering about this book but didn't have the time- or real strong desire to read it.
In general, when the world embraces something so much, I am skeptical right out of the gate.
I'm linking this today.

I agree you really need to have your theology straight. It disturbed me to picture the Trinity in this manner. I've listened to people discuss how much it helped them and ministered to them. It is fiction. I could not relate to it at all. I am much too visual and kept having mental pictures of the Trinity that I did not like. He does want an intimate close relationship with us, He is bigger than we realize and I've walked with Him for forty years and been taught by some great Biblical scholars and men of God who strictly preach the Word. I could just not put my head and heart around the book and get much out of it. My theology is so simple. If the Bible says it then it's true, if it's not in the Bible then I have my doubts if what I hear doesn't line up with the Word of God. Thanks for posting the review. It helped me.
KimAugust 11, 2008
Thanks for your review! I've read the book. Some things I struggled with, and a couple of things I thought about and realized I needed to hear it put in that context to further help me see myself! I agree with you about the content "read it, don't swallow it." All we need is the Word of God! This was a nice read, but only a read!
BillAugust 18, 2008
I'm preaching the Second Commandment this week and was thinking about how the Shack violates the Second Commandment by reducing God to any form, woman or man… some of your thoughts and insights were very valuable and I wanted to thank you.

I knew there was something not quite right about that book.
Look up the words "Sarayu River" it comes from Hinduisim.
Matt StoneAugust 31, 2008
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I haven't read it yet but it seems you've trying to be balanced. I suspect from what i have heard elsewhere that i would come to similar conclusions.

I had not planned to read The Shack but was asked to do so by an online acquaintance and then to tell him what I thought of the book, so I did. My comments to him were quite lengthy, but I have read the resonses that you have receive here and some of my concerns are not mentioned. I have greatly reduced my comments to these:
The book puts much emphasis on "relationships". Certainly God is NOT impersonal and He truly wants to be a part of every facet of our lives, but relationships are not the end of the matter.
"Papa" says that He wants everyone to have independence. Yet Almighty God will have us to lean on Him. That's ambiguous.
Mack does some "flying" in his dreams (page 115-116—"As odd as it sounds, Mack had learned inside his dreams to fly…") and "Papa" later advises him to continue his "flying" after he returns home. This sounds like "soul travel" as embraced by those that follow Echankar.
"The Festival of Friends"—chapter 15—describes a big "party on the lawn" that is attended by children and adults that have previously died, as well as many animals, and finally flanked by a myriad of angels —it was beautiful by description and appeals to all of us that one day such a thing might happen. However, only Jesus has ascended to the Father. (John 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.)
Try every spirit and daily search the scriptures whether these things be so. (Acts 17:11)
Be careful, little eyes, what you see. We must try every spirit and measure every word we read and hear against the truth of the Word of Almighty God. God does not wink at sin. The enemy will come at us with sweet words and beautiful images of a paradise where everything moves and operates as we would like. But that is not truth. Beginning in the Garden of Eden Satan began to twist the Word and cause mankind to try to remodel the God of the Bible into one they could rule over, rather than to serve. (Gen. 3:1-5) When the scribes and Pharisees confronted Jesus, His response to them was this:
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
The "all forgiving, all tolerant" god of The Shack is NOT the Almighty and Holy Only-God-That-Lives of the Bible! Yes, He wants to be an integral part of our lives, but He is also righteous and cannot look on sin. There will be judgment when He comes to judge the living and the dead.

Susy…your review is so helpful. Informative, insightful, and easy to understand. Thanks so much for doing the homework for me. Blessings…Jinx

Did you hear the interview on Steve Brown Etc of the author, Paul Young? (google it). It's incredible, and really helps explain his vision and intention for writing the book.
I wasn't pleased with this and that in The Shack, but as a whole, I absolutely loved it. What an excellent (though, yes, fully human) picture into who God is and His heart towards us. I can't tell you how many non-Christians I've heard reading it and talking about it. That is truly wonderful!
Also, I agree on concerns about believing the Trinity operates in hiararchy. No Trinitarian creed (see Nicene, Athanasian, Second Helvetical Confession, etc) says that the Trinity operates in hierarchy. It's a very new concept to Christendom, now popular but NOT in any sense orthodox.
Jesus did submit to the Father…*while on earth.* All orthodox believers affirm that. However that was a temporary thing, not an all-eternity-before-and-after thing. The thing about saying that His submission is eternal is that it totally messes with the concept that the three members of the Trinity are all equally God. They can't be all equally God if one is in charge of the others.
The early church fathers fought against the idea of a hierarchy, and for good reason. It opens the door to a host of problematic views about God.

Thank you for writing this article , I have been eying this book for a bit now , didn't even know what it was really about.
I am often to pagan to be considered christian , and to christian to be considered pagan , so I like looking at things of this nature.
I am appreciative.
KRFebruary 19, 2009
Oh! How I wish we could discuss this in person! I didn't like picturing God as a woman, but I appreciated that Young was trying to demonstrate how loving, gracious and comforting God is. I think, had he depicted God as a man, he wouldn't have been able to portray those characteristics as well without making the man effeminate. And I really appreciated how he showed his readers that God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit love us so completely. So many people, Christians included, think of God as this great big bully in the sky who wants to control us. But what I really, really liked about the book is how Young kind of put the church on its head. Up here, the habits and rituals of church attendance have replaced relationship. People go to church because they've always gone to church. Church leadership are put on a pedestal above those they serve. And denominations have segregated the body of Christ. All of these things are a result of man's sin, man's arrogance, etc. But many people are hurt in/because of church and then figure if that's the way God wants it then he isn't someone they want to know. I loved that Young emphasized relationship. I could go on and on. I liked the book a great deal, but mostly because it reiterated what I already knew to be true.(i.e. God doesn't care whether you have communion on the 1st Sunday or the 3rd, He cares that you do it at all and with the right spirit) I think that saying the book could link to goddess worship is a bit of a stretch and a reader would ahve to be leaning in that direction already in order to make that leap. One thing that really upset me about the reviews I've read is how some Pastors are attacking Young's character (adultery, etc). To them I say, he who has no sin can cast the first stone.
KirstenFebruary 23, 2009
so my issues after reading all these posts is this: once again (as in The Da Vinci Code) modern Christians are forgetting that this is FICTION!!!!!
Did you know that Young wrote this to leave as a legacy for his kids?
I am impressed!
Hi, Kirsten.
I think I'm detecting some sarcasm here.
Of course both books are fiction, but don't forget that words are powerful and can, and do, change the world. Both books are dealing with life-or-death topics (at least for those of us who center our lives around our faith) and deserve thought, reflection, and discussion.
They might be fiction, but don't deserve to be so easily dismissed. Sit down, have a cup of tea, and give us your thoughts. We'd love to hear them.
Unmasking the Goddess
SuzanneOctober 22, 2009
At first, I was disturbed by thinking about the hierarchy of the trinity, and their physical appearances in such I different way. But by the time I ended the book I respected what it had made me 'rethink' about. I didn't really leave the book thinking about God as a mother-goddess, or as a shape-shifter to meet our needs … but rather the fact that He is so much more than our Papa. He is divine and is not limited to the realities that we are. We've personified Him into a finite, human-like being … but I wonder if we won't all be surprised and in awe when we finally get to see Him, and the wonders He can probably do with very little effort. After all, he's not just our 'papa'. He's our creator – the maker of worlds! Yet, I truly believe He does care about each of us as a proud 'papa' would … and grieves with us during tragedy. And that was what the Shack was essentially about. Trying to make sense out of why God can let bad things happen … Worth reading, just because it made you think!
Norris ShannonMarch 26, 2010
As a Christian I disagreed with many things in this book, however there were things that made me look at my relationship with GOD in a new light. Mainly the love HE has for us. My main problem with the critics though is that GOD can't possibly be a BLACK WOMAN, not that there is only one road to HIM. I think you saying GOD cant be a woman is what is limiting. How do you place any limits on what GOD can do. I don't think cant is something you can associate with HIM.
Kelly ConleyJanuary 16, 2012
Hi Susy. I'm checking our your blog because I just started one. Regarding the Shack and the black woman portrayed as God, I think it was God himself who presented himself as a woman due to the "father issues" that Mackenzie had. yes, I agree that God is God and He is male. but, I know that He does meet us where we are at. And who knows, maybe God would do this for someone. I know that my understanding of God is limited. I know that He does have both a masculine and feminine side, per the scriptures. Plus at the end, once Mackenzie did deal with his father issues, God then presented himself as a man. I think I saw this book as a true fiction for the most part. I didn't put too much stock into the "facts" of the book. Although I did love how relational the book made God out to be. My husband and I read it together and I actually cried through the whole book. Thanks for your comments.

Which team is better ? Lopez and Nadal or Lopez and Gronollier ?
Moving forward through your volley typically makes them easier. By going to get the ball it will be higher in your strike zone and your forward momentum will add pace, which means you don't have to swing as hard and can emphasize control. Also, the closer you are to the net the more angle you have to work with.

Also I formation is something that Amateurs rarely use if ever. even at 4.0 and 4.5 level doubles, you almost never see it. cause guys just don't believe they can pull it off effectively
Staying back is something you can do if your serve (particularly second serve) is getting punished. Some guys hit an approach shot off of the return. So in effect the server is replacing a potentially tough first volley around the service line with an easier approach shot.
I think what's really important to highlight is that pros might stay back but that doesn't mean they become passive. The baseline guy is still aggressive, whether that means he's looking for opportunities to close or he's hitting shots that set up his net man to pick off the subsequent reply.
Mindset is really important - and often overlooked. Don't be Passive Pete. Stay aggressive.
