Well, Singapore is FAR from being an easy place to eat gluten free or even understanding gluten free but some shops and restaurants have made monumental strides in the right direction over the last year. Way to go and let's keep it up!!
When we moved to Singapore in 2009 my mom came to visit a few months after we moved here. She has Celiac Disease. This posed a HUGE problem in finding things for her to eat here in Singapore since no one understood or even knew what gluten was. The only gluten word known here seemed to be glutinous rice – which is gluten free, btw, and only means that the rice is sticky. And thank goodness it's gluten free because it's YUMMY!! We bought some gf snack bars at Mustafa for my mom – they had maggots in them. No lie. Kudos to Mustafa for stocking gf anything but it was proof to me that not too many people were out buying gf foods. We tried to find out what type of flour was in some of the batters in restaurants and hawker stalls and got blank stares. We are certain that some of the batters are ok since rice flour is frequently used here but trying to get that information out proved fruitless. My mom ate a lot of chicken and rice during her stay in Singapore. We did cook at home a lot which was fine too but there's just so much good food out there and if we could only have known what some of it was she might could have enjoyed more.
Since her visit in 2009, a couple of friends here discovered they are gluten intolerant. There is a difference between gluten intolerance and Celiac, btw. (But that's not what this post is about so you can do some research on your own for that or talk to your dr.) These friends paved the way for me in my recent Celiac diagnosis in finding out information about where to eat, where to shop, etc.
When I talk to anyone about eating GF there are many misconceptions. One main misconception is that we have to give up bread. While we can't eat regular bread, there are many mixes available that are really good. And you can use any bread recipe using gf all purpose flour or even your own flour mix if you prefer. By far, the hardest part of eat gf is the added time it takes to think through your recipes and check labels. Once you've been eating gf for a couple of months, it really becomes much easier.
Another misconception is that you have to give up all of your favorite foods and/or recipes. Chances are you can make most everything you normally make with minimal tweaking. And probably a lot of your recipes are gf anyway. I love cookies and although I miss a big gooey chocolate chip cookie, I still love this cookie and it's gf and delicious! Many of the Thai and other Asian dishes I cook are gf or can be. Like I said earlier, it just takes a bit of thought in the beginning but it will become routine.
Another misconception is that we have to give up eating out. Granted, in Singapore and other Asian countries it is a challenge but again, you just have to get creative and think for a minute or two. I can't eat all of my favorite dumplings at Din Tai Fung but I can still eat the Hot and Sour Soup which is my favorite thing on the menu anyway. At Brewerkz, I order a burger and don't eat the bun (this won't work for everyone due to varied intolerance levels). I order a salad, take off the croutons and take my own dressing or get some limes or lemons to squeeze over my salad. Hunks of meat, roasted veggies and such are usually ok. Just no gravy on the meat or mashed potatoes. I enjoy going to Hatched and getting the Smoked Royale (basically eggs benedict) without the English muffin. If you are highly gluten intolerant you will need to ask restaurants for recipes and even ask about cross contamination. For some, this is a real problem and will most likely justify eating at home more than eating out.
When you begin eating gluten free you should notice a huge difference. So much so that if you accidentally eat something with gluten in it you will know that you've messed up. Just pay close attention to what you are eating and how you feel after you've eaten it. That's really something we should do more of anyway, right? Everyone's symptoms are different but you will know your own body well enough to be able to tell.
In Singapore, you can always try to ask about ingredients and you might be pleasantly surprised but expect glazed over looks. I haven't found the magical phrase yet but there has to be one. The thing with eating out here is that most Asian foods are made with soy sauce and most soy sauces contain wheat. Why??? No idea! Why they put wheat in soy sauce is beyond me but I guess it's they way they've always done it. My soy sauce salvation is Bragg's Liquid Amino. Most stores here have it but it can always be found at Brown Rice Paradise in Tanglin Mall (one of my favorite stores in Singapore but also one of the most expensive). Most Asian food is safe as long as you stay away from battered and fried foods like egg rolls and things like sweet and sour dishes where the meat is battered. Also good to avoid dark colored sauces. They usually contain soy sauce. If you're not super intolerant, a little soy sauce might be ok but serious celiac sufferers cannot even handle a trace of gluten. If you are a serious sufferer, you'll know. When my mom was visiting back in 2009, the hawker stall owner spoke very good English and he made her sweet and sour shrimp without battering the shrimp. Get creative, think it through and remember it never hurts to ask. You might get lucky! You also might be in Cambodia and ask for a sandwich without the bread and get a completely blank stare. Just get the sandwich and put the bread to the side.🙂
As anyone knows, eating healthy or in any type of special way is ALWAYS more expensive than eating processed or convenient foods. Supply and demand, I guess? Maybe if more of us at healthy the prices would go down?? Eat specialty foods in Singapore and you can double or triple the price from the convenient foods.
You have to think through sauces, gravies and anything that is coated. Chips, french fries, rotisserie chicken, etc. Often the coatings have wheat in them.
Of course breads and tortillas (wraps/skins) are usually out of the question when eating out. Corn tortillas are usually ok, lucky for me since they are my favorite anyway.
When you're looking at labels, you're looking in the ingredients for wheat, rye or barley or any derivative of wheat, rye or barley. Of course, beer is out of the question. Cider is ok though.🙂 Corn chips are ok but you still need to look at the ingredients to make sure the coating does not contain wheat. For example, Honey BBQ Fritos are ok but Chili Cheese Fritos are not. I can say that now that they are selling Honey BBQ Fritos in Singapore now! Woohoo!!! Of course they are not healthy but they are gluten free.
Gluten (from wheat) is hidden in so many products we buy. You have to watch out for soy sauce, as I said, grated cheese (some cheeses are coated to keep it from sticking together in the pkg), salad dressings, ice cream, canned soups, even toothpaste.
So… here are a few gf hot spots that I frequent. As I find more I'll just add to this list here.
– Chili's restaurant (ask for the gluten free menu)
– Crust Pizza
– Hatched
– Brown Rice Paradise at Tanglin Mall (try their gf cous cous!)
– Most Cold Storages and Market Places have a decent selection of gf mixes and ingredients. Bob's Red Mill GF Wonderful Bread is good!
– I use this pasta – Tinkyada Rice Pasta (found at most Cold Storage and Market Places) It's really good pasta and no one I've ever served it to can tell the difference. We actually used this pasta before I found out I had celiac because it's good and digests better than white pasta.
And here are a few links for you to peruse.
GF/Celiac Info:
Celiac Product Directory (what products have gluten)
Recipe blogs I like:
If you live in Singapore and are trying to or need to eat gluten free for whatever reason, ask for gf or for product information every chance you get. Even if you get a blank stare it will help raise awareness and perhaps a curiosity about "what is this gluten free they keep asking about, lah?". Try to visit with the chef and ask him if he knows what gluten free is. If he doesn't, ask him to educate himself because it would serve his restaurant well to know. It might be a little inconvenient and awkward for us now but maybe we can help those out who come after us.

The National Cooperative Gallstone Study, a doublemasked, placebo-controlled, therapeutic trial of Chenodiol (chenodeoxycholic acid), provided an opportunity to study the natural history of cholelithiasis in patients who choose nonsurgical management. The major component of the study comprised 916 patients, 305 of whom were randomly assigned to receive a placebo for 24 months. Among these 305 patients, the probability of having biliary tract pain during the 24 months of prospective evaluation was significantly increased if the patient had had a history of biliary tract pain in the 12 months before entry into the study (69% versus 31%). Thirty-eight percent of patients had stone growth ( > 0.5 cm3), and 18% had a spontaneous decrease in stone volume. Despite the high incidence of biliary tract pain, nonelective cholecystectomy was required in only 4% of patients during the 24 months.

Veterans Memorial
Twin City Collision and Indy Collision Center would like to announce that we will be, again, hosting our "Swing for a Cure 11th Annual Classic" Friday, June 12th. Last year we raised over $28,000+ and went well over our goal the year before. This year, lets see if we can do that again! Our goal this year is $30,000. The proceeds go to help with breast exams and mammogram with the YMCA Women's Cancer Program here in Lafayette, Indiana.
We've had a lot of fun with it over the years and a lot has changed. The event has grown many times as we've added sponsor's, contests, prizes, food and drink vendors...and this year's event promises to be the best yet.
Be sure to save the date for Friday June 12th at Coyote Crossing Country Club. There are still sponsorship opportunities available too!
Thank you all for you support and we look forward to seeing you there!!

Montel Williams is sponsoring & promoting via television unscurpulous pay day loan services. The original entity is called Money Mutual and once you sign up with them your name is sent to everyone in the universe. You will be contacted by someone other than Money Mutual offering you a loan to get through the hard times. Unfortunately you will be digging yourself into a grave if you do business with any of them. I made the mistake of taking a loan with one company in particular where I borrowed $700.00 back in November 2012. I have made payments every two-weeks first in the amount of $168.00 x 5=$840.00 and additionally two payments 1 at $218.00 and another at $206.00 Grand Total=$1264.00 and only $100.00 of that went towards Principles. The interest rates/fees are ridiculous and I am angry at myself & them for taking advantage of people. I would advise anyone who has taken a loan with any PAY DAY company that are charging more than the allowable maximum rate of 15%, you should close out your account once you have given them more than what you borrowed and not pay one cent more. Contact the attorney general office of your state and report them, and find yourself a lawyer to recoup your losses. It is illegal and fines & imprisonment will strictly enforced, not to mention you may be able to get up to 3 times the amount they overcharged you.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is considering make a big money move for Liverpool striker Luis Suarez in January, according to the Daily Telegraph
Suarez signed a new deal at Anfield last week and is set to stay with the Merseyside club in order for them to push for a top four spot and maybe even the title.
The Uruguayan star openly admitted he wanted to leave Liverpool in the summer but despite that the Reds rejected bids north of £40million for their prized asset and are now reaping the rewards with his fine form.
Sauarez could be the answer to Chelsea's major striker issues in Mourinho's opinion with Fernando Torres, Demba Ba and Samuel Eto'o failing to find any sort of form this season and Romelu Lukaku out on loan at Everton.
The Blues would have to make their bid in excess of the £50million that they paid Liverpool for Torres and Chelsea can have a good look at their most wanted man when he struts his stuff at Stamford Bridge this afternoon when the two clubs meet.
you are an idiot to have written this article because it's not true. You are a disgrace to journalism. Idiotic rumour monger!
hahaha come chelsea brooo
Has 130m buyout clause to British clubs
Shameless pre-match hype & rumour-mongering with sole purpose of garnering 'clicks' for advertising.Go get a journalism career in WWF
Actually release clause is £100 mil for European Clubs and £130 mil for EPL Clubs
So, COUGH UP or SHUT UP !!!
This is just awful journalism. Unrealistic and LS contract clause states bid must be at least £130m. Do your homework!

Well, I took the plunge and took delivery of the D4 yesterday. Spent most of the last 24 hours getting familiar with it and setting it up for sports photography. I had to do a firmware update which went flawlessly. I didn't have much problem selling the D800 and D300s. Shot #0002, my dog Sweetheart.

Sweetheart was rescued by my grandson when she was 6-7 weeks old and that was almost nine years ago. She's a German shepherd & husky mix. At least that's what we were told. Fitting that the first shots on my new D4 were of Sweetie.

It's a great camera. (Nice dog, too!)Go out and take lots of exposures, so you can get used to the various combinations of controls & the effect they have on the pictures.The great thing about digital is you can make lots of mistakes without any additional cost. And if you don't like a pic -- delete it -- and it n e v e r happened.Arthur

We were originally assured a delivery of a vehicle from Missouri the week of Christmas. One month later, we get an email stating that they will deliver but the price was (surprise) increased. Further, the deposit that we paid in earnest was now "lost money." They are not even including the deposit already paid in the total price, even though this "issue" had already been cleared up. Basically, they are keeping our deposit plus they are charging us more than the original price that was agreed upon.The contract that they sent was nothing more than a way to suck more money out of us.
When my husband called to complain, he was told to basically take it or leave it. The transporter said that if we didn't pay the extra money that he would just drop the vehicle off at a storage facility. In short he was holding our vehicle "hostage" until we agreed to pay the additional money (including the deposit that we already paid). This has happened to other customers and the response from SG Carriers is "the customers are lying."

Is is possible to have (2)comment templates running on one wordpress install?
I need one comment template (default will do) for all categories and their specific sub-categories and another comment template designed strictly for one specific category and its sub-categories?
I've tried designing my own comment template - actually I just copied the default one, changed the HTML wording and renamed it comments-review.php then FTP into my theme folder. I changed the call from
<?php comments_template(); ?> to
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/comments-review.php'); ?> in the category.php and sub-category.php template and it worked, sort of.
I got the comment template form to come up but it displays NO COMMENTS. If I check the specific category.php info section, the comments are registering (ie: 2comments) and clickable, but when I'm re-directed to the comments section I get the form but still no comments.
However, if I change the template call back to the original code
<?php comments_template(); ?> I get everything (form and comments) - but not the new design wording.
Can someone PLEASE help me with this issue.
Thank for you help.

Kenny Chesney is on track to become country's top touring artist of all time.
The signs are all pointing in that direction, according to Billboard magazine. Currently, country's top-grossing all-time act is George Strait, with concert sales reaching a whopping $267 million. But Kenny has already surpassed $183 million since he began headlining a few years ago. The numbers are only going to get bigger with this year's tour, as Kenny has added nine large-capacity stadiums to his concert schedule, including NFL stadiums in Boston, Nashville and Detroit. Kenny's concert promoter Louis Messina boils down Kenny's amazing concert success to one simple factor: "He gives the people their money's worth."

England clinched a 40-run victory over New Zealand in the first Twenty20 in Auckland after racking up a record-breaking 214 for seven with the bat.
Stuart Broad's side exploited the tiny boundaries at Eden Park to plunder boundaries, and the tourists cleared the ropes 15 times – beating their previous record by four – as they easily surpassed their highest T20 score of 202 for six.
New Zealand never mustered the momentum required to challenge England's score, after having won the toss and elected to chase, with the tourists taking a 1-0 lead in the three match series.
Luke Wright topped the sixes charts with four, and the all-rounder later took 2-29 with the ball, while Broad starred with his best ever T20 international figures of 4-24 and Steven Finn also chipped in with three wickets.
"The freedom the guys played with today was fantastic: it was great to see," Broad said. "To be able to get such a high score, we are delighted. We knew we didn't need to over-strike the ball and think too much about the short boundaries. From a personal point of view to pick up wickets when it matters, and lead the side, is pleasing."
With the lopsided ground having little more than 60-yard boundaries at either end, England set about taking the Black Caps' attack apart, with openers Alex Hales and Michael Lumb hammering 21 and 22 runs off just 16 and 15 balls respectively.
Indeed, a total of 23 sixes were dispatched into the stands over the course of the game - one short of the all-time record.
Trent Boult and fellow left-arm seamer Mitchell McClenaghan found some early swing, but the pair struggled to contain the carefree England batsmen, with Kiwi skipper Brendon McCullum unable to stem the tide.
Hales greeted the introduction of Ronnie Hira's left-arm spin with some savage blows, but he proceeded to miss one that drifted into him and was easily stumped.
Wright was quick to upstage both Hales and Lumb as he blasted seven boundaries at a strike rate of 210.00.
Ross Taylor, back for his first international match since being controversially relieved of the New Zealand captaincy and then sitting out the tour of South Africa, was given a tremendous ovation as he entered the field of play, but he crucially dropped Wright at cover off Nathan McCullum and then Lumb off the bowling of Andrew Ellis.
Wright was eventually caught in the leg-side off Ellis and then Lumb miscued an attempted hook at McClenaghan to short fine-leg, but the two wickets only served to bring the dangerous Jonny Bairstow and Eoin Morgan together.
Hira dropped Jonny Bairstow on 22 off Ellis as the hosts continued to make blunders in the field, McClenaghan inexplicably failing to pick up a shot from Morgan which he could not even get a hand to at midwicket off Nathan McCullum.
Hira got Morgan's wicket in the end as he presented Taylor with an even more unmissable opportunity, and Bairstow followed shortly afterwards as he failed to clear Martin Guptill at long on.
With England's entire top six making at least 20 runs each at a rate of over a run-a-ball, New Zealand's task was always going to be a formidable one, but Guptill led from the front with a savage 44.
While Guptill cut loose at one end, Finn and Broad removed the dangerous Brendon McCullum and debutant Hamish Rutherford, and the dismissal of Taylor for just 13 represented another huge setback for the hosts as the Middlesex paceman struck again.
Colin Munro managed to add 28 for the Black Caps, but there was little further resistance after Guptill was dismissed by Wright.
Hira was left unbeaten on 20 at the end, but the hosts' efforts petered out poorly in the final overs and England comfortably closed out a fine victory which sees them begin the tour in impressive fashion.
The two sides will now meet again for the second T20 in Hamilton on Tuesday, before the final encounter of the three-match series at Wellington on February 15.

Skip to comments.Following the Truth: A Biblical Roadmap To The One, True Church (Catholic or Open)
Posted on 11/28/2011 8:12:49 AM PST by Salvation
click here to read article
I guess you don't understand the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and all the prayer done there.
So sorry.
Here is the URL about the Catholic mass for dummies:
It is included in the First Commandment instead.
I am the Lord thy God; thou shalt have no false gods before me.
Serious answer: Jesus said of and to Peter, "You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it." And Peter took it from there, preaching throughout the Mediterranean and eventually serving in the primacy in Rome. For fifteen hundred years afterward there was no other church (the Latin church includes all of the Eastern churches as part of the same body). There is no record of Jesus coming back to earth and saying, "I changed My mind, the deal with Peter is off." The Catholic Church and its leaders are descended in a direct line from Peter who was assigned by Jesus.
Thanks for your testimony about Sri's book, "A Biblical Walk through the Mass."
I loved it and thought it only lacking in the Nicene Creed part, which, I guess had not been totally firmed up when he wrote the book.
I loved it and thought it only lacking in the Nicene Creed part, which, I guess had not been totally firmed up when he wrote the book.
Editing that -- the new translation had not been totally firmed up, because his book uses all the new translations.
And yet the 'greatest' theologians came to conclusions based on their own reading and understanding. I will take the KJV translation as being done with utmost care and thoughtful prayer. Not all great theologians are from the church of Rome
Another book is "What Happens at Mass" by Father Jeremy Driscoll.
What is so great about Sri's book, though, is that it is for dummies like me — very easy to understand and reference back to the Bible.
Please understand that Catholics do not worship these images or statues. They are art and are inspiring to those who wish to pray or ask for prayers from a certain saint.
"I guess you dont understand the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and all the prayer done there."
You don't think that prayer and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit went into the making of the Bible???
So how is the Magesterium less likely to be misinterpreted than the Scripture?
"Serious answer: Jesus said of and to Peter, You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. "
So this statement is the basis of the Catholic Church's claim to authority?
"Only you can answer the question about being bound for eternal life or eternal damnation."
Again I am telling you Jesus Christ is my Savior and Lord, and I am indwelt by His Spirit. I know without a doubt that my future is life in the glorious presence of Christ for all eternity - not because of what I have done but because of what He has done. If I am not, and never will be Catholic, what does YOUR theology teach about my salvation?
"If you die with a mortal sin on your soul without having gone to the Sacrament of Penance/Confession and repented of it then it is your choice.
FYI, once you have confessed your sins and been forgiven by GOD in the Sacrament of Penance, God forgets that sin.
Do you know the actual words of absolution?"
So, are you saying that I need the "Sacrament of Penance/Confession" - presumably only in a Catholic church - and specific words of absolution - in order to be saved?
What if I have truly confessed my sinfulness and and received God's forgiveness through the substitionary atonement of Jesus Christ - yet not in a Catholic church?
And Luther did not produce the KJV which had more than the vulgate as source material
"The Roman Catholic tradtion that Peter was the first Pope is fiction pure and simple. There is no New Testament hint that Peter was at any time Bishop of Rome. Nor did he ever claim for himself such authority as the Popes have claimed for themselves. It seems that Peter had a divine foreboding that his 'successors' would be mainly concerned with 'Lording over God's flock,' 1 Pet. 5:3."
So you could then show us the scripture to prove the bodily assumption of Mary right? Or was that a YOPIOS of some Catholic years ago that the rest latched on to?
Lutherans use the same enumeration as Roman Catholics.
But Eastern Catholics don't use the Roman Catholic enumeration.
I think it's arrogant of you to believe that a God who is so wise wouldn't allow us to clearly understand his word that was written so long ago. You'll notice that Jesus didn't choose the sages of the day as his disciples....He chose ordinary men to spread his message - just as he does today.
It is not written in the catechism. So what are you talking about? It is people who turn evil that do it in any organization.
I'm not at all sure that sarcasm contributes to advancing a discussion and mutual understanding between Christians. I don't suppose for a moment that I'm wise, but I'm trying to reach out to fellow Christians to explain my faith.
...should I listen to a practicing homosexual, pedophile priest and trust in his word because someone claims that he is a "brilliant theologian" or "philosopher" or should I read the Bible and trust that God will give me the wisdom to be able to understand His word?
I would never listen to a homosexual, pedophile priest and I hope you wouldn't, either! But I don't think anybody has ever suggested that Augustine, Aquinas, Irenaeus, Tertullian, the Council at Ephesus, the Council at Nicaea, and the other fathers of the church were practicing homosexuals and pederasts either. Remember that Luther himself was a Catholic and did not intend to destroy the Catholic Church or to set up a new faith, only to correct errors.
Of course God gives us some discernment and judgement. But do you not see that there is a fundamental problem if there are tens of thousands of separate churches and they all say, "We read the Scripture, we interpreted it for ourselves, and our teachings are right. Yours are wrong." They can't all be right, as they all believe different things. Yet they have all been relying on private discernment for their conflicting views. So clearly private wisdom isn't enough. If it were, most God-loving people would be on the same page about God.
Can I just share this one thing with you? Sometimes Protestants dislike the Catholic Church because of misconceptions about what Catholics believe, and why. Some Protestants actually think that it's the Official Catholic Doctrine that molesting kids is okay, or homosexuality is okay, or praying to statues is okay. And that's nowhere near the truth. If Catholicism said those things were okay I wouldn't have had anything to do with the Church either. So maybe it would be helpful to talk about what specific points of doctrine you don't agree with the Church about. We might find that we have more in common than you think. I'm not an expert, but perhaps we could break down some of the barriers of misunderstanding. Whaddaya say? I think it's arrogant of you to believe that a God who is so wise wouldn't allow us to clearly understand his word that was written so long ago. You'll notice that Jesus didn't choose the sages of the day as his disciples....He chose ordinary men to spread his message - just as he does today.
Protestantism is founded on William of Ockham's philosophy and its application to the Bible and Christian faith in general.
Ockham's razor simply says the simplest proposition is the true one hence the "Me and my Bible phenomenon."
Sola Ockham.
The following is a Lutheran treatise, but it is almost identical to what Catholics/Orthodox believe.
I think this shows that being Biblical is in the eyes of the beholder.
The Theology of the Keys
I am considering joining a Lutheran church and have read extensivly on their theology. I find that it closely corresponds with my own but I have a question about the above passage. The Lutherans say that the "power of the Keys" gives the catholic (little c) church certain rights and responcibilities (such as pronouncing that sins have been forgivin) but I don't see it.
Although you have correctly identified that interpretation as "Lutheran," one can be a Lutheran and reserve judgment on that interpretation or reject it. It is not an area of essential doctrine (such as the Trinity, the deity of Christ, the bodily resurrection, salvation by grace through faith, etc.).
The passage [Matthew 16:19] is certainly cryptic and assumes some familiarity with first century and Old Testament religious practices that most readers today don't have. People tend to take inegmatic statements in scripture and build explanations around them that go beyond the bare bones of the text. Evangelicals point to this passage to support the idea that "church" is wherever "two or three" are gathered in Christ's name. Mormons point to this passage to support the idea that salvation (exaltation) is only available through the Mormon church. Roman Catholics use this to support the teaching that the priest "mediates" between humans and God regarding the forgiveness of sin. Other groups use it, too.
However, I think the plain meaning of the text is more simple than that. First, since this was written before the establishment of what we commonly refer to as "the church" (subsequent to Peter's Pentecost sermon in Acts 2), we can assume that the "church" Jesus referred to was the local synagogue congregation, which usually had one or more rabbis (teachers), a minimum of 12 Jewish adult males, and a maximum of about 200 members. These synagogue "churches" served their local neighborhoods (in a metropolitan setting such as Jerusalem) or local community (in smaller towns, villages, and rural areas). They were places of worship, teaching of the scriptures (the Old Testament at that time), fellowship among believing members, regulation of Jewish religious life, and as courts of arbitration in local civil disputes. As a matter of fact, this basic structure was carried over into the Jewish Christian congregations and Jewish/Gentile Christian congregations in the first and second century. We still see remnants of it in the order of service in liturgical churches such as the Lutheran Church (Missouri Synod).
So — the issue Jesus addresses is apparently a civil or personal dispute between two members of the same synagogue "church." As such, the synagogue church represented the people of God in much the same way Israel did among nations before God. We can take this as good advice for the Christian church as well.
Second, according to the law given by God through Moses, both criminal and civil disputes were settled using the principle that a party can prevail only if there are "two or three witnesses" to the offense (Deut. 17:6; 19:15). Jesus himself commended this practice, noting in John 5:31 that "If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true," not because the Son of God is a liar, but because no one should believe someone who claims he is the Son of God merely based on his claim, but on multiple unequivocal "witnesses" or evidences. He continues, saying, "There is another who bears witness of Me, and I know that the witness which He witnesses of Me is true" (v. 32), further noting that John the Baptist (v. 33), Jesus' miracles (v. 36), the Father's voice (v. 37), and the scriptures (v. 39). He returns to this them in John 8:14, paradoxically announcing that "Even if I bear witness of Myself, My witness is true" [since he has proven by other witnesses that he is the Son of God]. Immediately following, he refers to the rules of witnesses (8:16-18).
Later in Christianity, the apostle Paul commended the Bereans for testing his teachings (Acts 17:11), and warned the Galatians not to believe false witnesses, even if the witness is an angel or Paul himself (Gal. 1:6-10).
So — what does this have to do with Matt. 18?
In the context of correcting the sinning brother, the person sinned against has an obligation to go to that person privately to try to resolve it. If he unable, then he is to take "one or two more, that 'by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established'" (Matt. 18:16). If the brother still refuses to repent, then it is the obligation of the congregation (the "church") to act as Christ's representative is holding the sinning brother accountable, and then expelling him from the church if he remains unrepentant (vv. 17-19).
The Lutheran teaching flows from this understanding and places great responsibility on the local congregation for ensuring that its members are treated fairly and that unrepentant sin is inexcusable. When the church (more than merely the "two or three" witnesses required) judges someone guilty or restored, it is acting as Christ instructed it to act, and as God commanded both in the Old Testament synagogue churches and in the New Testament and historical Christians churches after Christ's coming.
Lutherans are careful to distinguish that the "keys" — the power to "forgive" and "retain" sins is a derivative or reflective power of announcing forgiveness or judgment according to God's standards.
Now, there are other aspects of the "keys of the kingdom" mentioned here and in Is. 22:22, Matt. 16:19, and Rev. 1:18. (There is additionally ananalogous passage about the "key of knowledge" in Luke 11:52).
The passage in Is. 22:22 makes a Messianic reference to a general custom in Israel and surrounding nations during the first millennium B.C. The custom was that the king, governor, prince, master, or head of household could give someone the power to act in his place in his absence or for certain duties. This "prime minister" or "right hand man" was given a ceremonial robe, belt, and key to signify his authority under the leader. When the individual with the "key" (and other items) made a judgment over his master's property and/or people, it communicated and represented the master's will.
The apostle John's reference to Christ with the keys in Rev. 1:18 would have been immediately understood by his first century A.D. readers as a reference to Is. 22:22.
Likewise, when Jesus used the term in Matt. 16 and 18, his disciples understood that they were to act in his behalf and communicate his will through their own actions and words. In this sense, all Christians have the responsibility to communicate God's will and God's plan of salvation to those who don't know it. We are God's representatives, and individual congregations are represented by their pastors.
The passage in Matt. 16 refers specifically to Peter, and by inference to all Christians. We see from the book of Acts that Peter, representing both Christ and the church, "used" the keys of the kingdom in first proclaiming the gospel to the Jews (Acts 2), then confirming that the gospel was meant also for the Samaritans (Acts 8:14-25), and finally confirming the universal nature of the gospel, including the Gentiles (Acts 10). This is the pattern Jesus commanded in Matt. 28:19.
Of course, any _mis_representation that churches or Christians make are invalid since they contradict the will of the Master (Jesus Christ). We are told to represent Jesus, but not that we can act with authority outside his will. We are commissioned to announce God's forgiveness and judgment, not to determine God's forgiveness and judgment.
I really think it's presumptuous of Catholics to believe that just by belonging to a particular church that they are the only ones who will get to spend eternity in salvation with the Lord. It's presumptuous to believe that all non-Catholics will be banished to Hell. Nowhere does that rationale appear in the Bible. If you believe it does, kindly quote to me the exact chapter and verse.
Ooops, I'm sorry that I included the last sentences you wrote with my own words, I was not trying to be sarcastic. It was a typing error.
I do have to note, however, that Peter, Paul, and the other Apostles weren't exactly ordinary men! Oh, they were doing ordinary jobs, but Jesus looked into their hearts and minds and saw that they had what it would take to be His greatest servants and preach the Gospel to the world.
I agree with you. And so does the Catholic Church. That's not what's in the cathechism of the Catholic Church.
"I would never listen to a homosexual, pedophile priest and I hope you wouldn't, either!"
Understatement of the year.
The problem wasn't just with a couple of priests. It's with an entire organization leading a flock, and that same organization at best was negligent and at worst were co-conspiritors in major crimes against children. I wouldn't listen to anyone that would tell me what is right and wrong when those very people were fostering and enabling such hatred to go on in their own houses. It wasn't a few people. It was. The. Entire. Catholic. Leadership. I'll take my chances on trusting in God. The church came out at one point and said they were going to create "code's of conduct" in relation to alter boys. Um... thought that was the Bible. Evidently they needed some priests to write it down and make it plain to them though. Don't touch the alter boys.
The veil has been torn. I no longer need corrupt men telling me what is right and wrong doctrinally when I can see with my God given eyes and use my God given brain to know, without any shadow of a doubt, know that that church put children directly in harms way. Not a couple of priests. The entire organization. I don't need their discernment on any matter.
I don't have a problem with what Catholics believe scripturally as much as I have a problem with the way the entire thing was handled. Makes neverland ranch look like a safe and viable option. It's remniscient of the hollywood actor saying don't do drugs, then going back stage and doing a huge line off a hooker. I don't care what the Catholic church has to say after that. They lost all credibility. Amazing how a reputation can take a lifetime to create and not very long to destroy. The solution wasn't to move guilty priests and pay off the family(s). That is enabling and makes them just as guilty as the felons.
To me the leadership of that Church is no different than Congress. They ALL need to go yet they are all so hungry to hang on to their power.
Excellent article, Salvation! Thank you for posting it to the forum.
Hint ... the "church" did not cover up the abuse; individual clergy did.
Reminder ... The Church is Christ's bride (Ephesians 5:29) and has "no spot, wrinkle or blemish" (Ephesians 5:27). Christ also stated that the gates of Hell will not prevail against His Church (Matthew 16:18) so how can the Church commit error? Individual clergy may commit sins, even popes commit sins because in the Church there are both "weeds and wheat" (Matthew 13:30).

What a great reference link and list of non-Catholic molesters.
I don't know. I haven't been at this for very long. After Vatican II? Or before? I do remember that as a Protestant kid in the 1960s, the Catholic kids would assure me solemnly that I was going to hell. Seemed a bit unfair! Perhaps 15 years ago a priest gave me a copy of the Catechism (which is still at my bedside table even as I write this) and I scanned it anxiously for what the Church taught about non-Catholics going to hell. It no longer says that.
But you know how it is, sometimes regular people, and even teachers, priest, nuns, pastors, rabbis, etc., will believe and say something when it's not the actual teaching. So you have to ask someone who's an expert on church history, which would not be me--I'm a noob.
Gotta say, that was crazy about your Orthodox grandmother. The Orthodox are considered part of the same Body of Christ.
Of course I study the Bible too. I just like to have the Catechism around as a quick reference to what teachings are on a particular point, sort of a springboard to more study.
What a great reference link and list of non-Catholic molesters.
Yes .. absolutely. God meets us where we are. However, he continues to call us to the 'Truth'. When we follow that call, we become seekers of the 'Truth'. Christ did not state to refer to or consult Scripture for disputes and correction. He said to go to the Church as It is the final authority in Christianity. In addition, St. Paul states that the Church, not Scripture is "THE pillar and ground of the truth." (1 Timothy 3:15) Since the Church alone is mentioned as the pillar of truth, then It alone has the right to discern the truth and interpret Scripture. For if individuals could correctly interpret Scripture, then all interpretations would be exactly the same as there can only be one Spiritual Truth for the plural of the word "truth" never appears in Scripture.
Free Will is a necessary element of Christian faith.
Lol! These individuals ALL made the same statement. NEVER a Catholic! Each had a different reason ...what is yours?
The one true church of Jesus Christ is his body of believers, not denominations.
Worshipping (all right - "adoring") that cookie is abominable idolatry.
" Its presumptuous to believe that all non-Catholics will be banished to Hell. Nowhere does that rationale appear in the Bible.
I agree with you. And so does the Catholic Church. That's not what's in the cathechism of the Catholic Church. "
But that's what the Council of Trent teaches.
Gary's Story
I was raised in a family that was very active in the Church of Christ. Throughout my childhood, I was schooled in the Bible, and how it was our authority and guide to life. After my Baptism at age 14, something began to bother me. I heard how everyone could read the Bible, and take it literally, but I began to see "holes" in this assertion. Nothing was more contradictory, than how this community, (and other protestant denominations) regarded the "Lord's Supper" as a mere symbol. In the Gospel of John, Jesus clearly states: "...for my flesh is real food, and my blood is real drink..." and again , "Amen, Amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you..." It became clear to me that this church which claimed to be following the Word of God, was not. Deep within my heart, I was called elsewhere. The Catholic Church and it's missionary work, had always intrigued me. In retrospect, this is extremely interesting, as I would only hear of the Church in negative terms, from the pulpit and my family.
Finally at age 18, I felt that I needed to know more about Catholicism, so I went to a neutral source -- the encyclopedia. From that article, I was able to fill in some of the "holes" in my Christian Faith. (e.g. Where did the Bible come from; what happened from Apostolic times until now, etc.) I then phoned the local Catholic parish, St. John the Evangelist, and began dialogue with the Priest. That fall, I entered the RCIA, and on 07 April 1985, entered into full communion with the Roman Caholic Church at the Great Easter Vigil. That was 16 years ago, and my family to this day is very uncomfortable with me -- despite that fact my wife (also a convert) and I are raising two "Cradle Catholics". I am ashamed to say that my family refused to attend their baptisms. I firmly believe that there is a great need for Catholic witnessing, as there is much ignorance on the part of protestants, as to the Church. Who do they think gave them the Bible!
WE arte the Body of Christ. Why separate yourself?
WE are the Body of Christ. Why separate yourself?
WE are the Body of Christ. Why separate yourself?
Who is "we"?
I don't mind a nice exposition of doctrine from whatever church. While I am not a Catholic, I sent my daughter to a great Catholic High School, they were always nice and kind to us unlike the local Protestant High School that would not even let her apply even when all her friends were going there. I guess they did not want any deviations from their doctrinal stance. Mormons, really get under their skins, I guess. But, the Catholics were never that way, they were always kind to us.
Your non-Catholic argument is lame. Remember, it is your institution, not Protestantism, that forces celibacy on its Popes, priest, and nuns. Everybody with half a brain knows such imposition is against nature...and for those of us who read our Bibles, against the Bible also.
With such unnatural pent-up sexual desires it is no wonder the sexual crimes of the RCC clergy always in the news. And the sexual escapades of such Popes as:
Sergius III, with his mistress, Marozia, her sister, and mother who "filled the Papal chair with their paramours and bastard sons," and turned the Papal Palace into a whore house. Called in history, The Rule of the Harlots (904-963).
And John XII (955-963), a grandson of Marozia, "guilty of almost every crime; violated virgins and widows, high and low; lived with his father's mistress; made the Papal Palace a brothel; was killed while in the act of adultery by thw woman's enraged husband."
Thank God no Protestants have ever committed sexual sins, eh?

Of course to us transfers seemed to come out of the blue and of course back then we were talking about incoming...who wanted to leave once they had ARRIVED ?

Most of us back then in our late teens early 20ies didnt have wads of cash to spend we were lucky a lot of us to have enough to see the match and have a few pints before and after the game and talk and laugh about the voodoo the Lads in Red had worked on the opposition yet again ! No mention of the financial viability of the club we supported home and awayHappy Daze eh ? Progress?...Dont make me laugh.

Client Success Story
Legally blind, Joan needed to improve her strength and balance to maintain her independence.
Introduction. Two years ago, Mary Ann DeMello sat in the kitchen of Joan, aged 85, discussing the possibility of training together. The two were introduced by Adelle, one of DeMello's clients, who would often bring Joan home-cooked meals. "Joan is very thin, and Adelle was trying to fatten her up!" says DeMello. "Adelle thought it would be a good idea for me to work with Joan, building her muscles and teaching her fall prevention exercises."

Skip to comments.Tennessee tourist arrested for bringing pistol into 9/11 Memorial
Posted on 12/29/2011 11:03:08 AM PST by massmike
A tourist from Tennessee waltzed into one of the most secure sites in the city and politely asked a cop if she could check her weapon.
Instead, she was dragged out in cuffs.
Now, Meredith Graves, 39, is facing at least three years in prison for thinking New Yorks gun laws are anything like those in the Bible Belt.
Graves, a fourth-year medical student, showed up at the memorial on Dec. 22 to pay her respects during a trip north for a job interview.
She didnt realize that the loaded .32-caliber pistol in her purse would be a problem until she saw a sign at the site that read, No guns allowed, sources said.
She remembered she had the gun on her, a source said. She walked up to a security guard and said, I have this gun. Where can I check it?
The guard told her that she was in luck because of law enforcement day and led her to another area.
When she got to that section, she asked another cop, We have this gun can we check it in here? We [my husband and I] are not law-enforcement.
Thats when she was arrested.
Graves, who has a full legal carry permit in Tennessee, was locked up on a weapons-possession charge and held on $2,000 bond that she posted yesterday. She is due in court on March 19.
Shell soon find out exactly how serious New York City is about illegal guns. The Manhattan DAs Office is pursuing a conviction on felony gun possession carrying a minimum sentence of 3 1/2 years.
Mayor Bloomberg, with the help of the five district attorneys, has crusaded against the flow of illegal guns, especially from the South.
(Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
And she was gonna' be a doctor ?
A tourist from Tennessee waltzed into one of the most secure sites in the city and politely asked a cop if she could check her weapon.
Instead, she was dragged out in cuffs.
It wasnt a nice thing to do to Nana
She's in big trouble. Bloomberg is not gun friendly.
That was a gross over-reaction on the part of NYPD and the rent-a-cop. Looks like another good reason for those of us in the Bible belt to avoid NYC, as if we needed one.
Time for another court case to take to the Supremes.
A responsible CHL holder checks the laws in the State to which they are traveling before they leave.
When I went to NY a month ago I KNEW I couldn't carry my gun. I didn't even need to check the laws.
For someone so bright, she is awfully stupid. First rule of traveling with your gun, know the laws of the state you are traveling to.
When my mother got a CCW because she travels, I made simple summaries of what she could and could not do, how do carry, if the CCW was reciprocated in that state, dealing with the common Indian reservations she goes through and which ones to avoid, etc. and made her a booklet. I update it for her every year, even though most times I now drive her.
I'm sorry but this lady is just incredibly obtuse. Any gun owner who doesn't know about New York City's horrible gun laws is simply pitiful!
why do people want to volunteer info about their own personal firearms like this? KEEP YOU STUPID MOUTH SHUT
There is absolutely no reason for someone from the South to go to New York.
The reaction by New York officials seems extreme. She should pay her bail then go back to her home state requiring New York to apply for extradition-which they will not do. The governor of her home state would not send her back to New York even if New York requested it.
Looks like it's worse to carry a gun than to kill someone with it.
Terror keeps the people in line.
There! Fixed it!
Article IV, Section 1, also amendment the 2nd. Plus, she did not show intent to cause any harm.
Under the law, however, she is presumed guilty and will never be innocent again...
Now, thanks to NYC's idiotic firearms laws, she will like do more jail time than most real career criminals in New York.
One of the responsibilities of having a CCW permit is knowing the laws of states and countries to which you travel, and taking care to obey them. I hope she gets a good lawyer.
Yer a smart feller!
This lady sounds like a dimwit.
Of course, you are entirely correct in your estimation and actions which are in keeping with what responsible people do. Sometimes you wonder about so-called smart people.
That's an interesting tactic. If the feds pass the CCW bill, would that make her arrest moot? If not, I wouldn't want to be be her with an arrest warrant out if she travels to other states and gets stopped for something. She's screwed.
There's smart and then book smart and I think she is probably the latter.
If you don't care for culture in general or music or the arts or sports or great food then there is no reason to go just stay home and watch tv.
High praise coming from a frog!
Two can play:
They should pass a law in Tennesee that says
(1) that any person, including law enforcement or mayors,
(2) who arrests, prosecutes, or convicts a Tennesee concealed handgun licenese holder for a weapons violation when said CHL holder, if a concealed license holder in that state, would otherwise be legally in possession of the weapon;
(3) commits a felony against the People of the State of Tennesee punishable by no less that 20 years in prison, no possibility of parole.
She was effectively turning her gun over to law enforcement. There is still an active Gun Buyback program in NYC. If a Gangbanger was turning in a probable murder weapon he'd do it with no questions asked. She has a 14th Amendment case here.
Silly lady, thought she lived in a free country.
NRA where are you?. The Second Amendment is clear. This case should be fought all the way to the Supreme Court. What happens if she goes home and simply fails to return to NY for a court hearing? Surely Tennessee authorities would not extradite her. Or would they?
There isn't enough money in the world to get me anywhere near NYC.
I wouldn't mind visiting, but I wouldn't want to live there.
It was stupid of her to assume. All I can say to her is to get a good lawyer or she will be facing jail time.
Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
Now she may lose her right to carry in Tennessee. Depending on the charges. New York's unconstitutional Sullivan Law has been in effect for damn near a century.
What a Maroon!
We have culture, excellent music, awesome food, plenty of sports professional and college, we do not have broadway, but we have the arts. NYC needs to be reminded on occasion that it is nolonger the center of the universe.
Last time I checked,I could find all that in Boston....
New York's a fun city to visit - and also has enormous photographic potential. I've taken some great shots in Central Park and along the rivers. But I wouldn't live there now for all the money in the world. With his fetish for lifestyle laws and social controls, Nanny Bloomberg has turned it into a neo-fascist theme park.
I did carry while I was there but I damned sure didn't tell anyone. I had a .357 double deringer in a boot top holster.
The lady would have been fine if she'd kept her mouth shut!
Boy, there are a lot of idiotic posts on this thread. One poster called her a "marone". Who is the dumb-bell?
The 2nd Amendment trumps state attempts to restrict gun possession. If the NRA takes her case, it may be interesting to watch what New York does to avoid overturning an unconstitutional city and state 'law'.
I've never been a big fan of boycotts, but this is one I could get behind, gun owners should make an issue of this and boycott NY, in a very big way, there were approximately a million and a half guns purchased in December alone, that's a lot of gun owners, many new owners. I have no reason to go to NY at the moment, but I would be willing to write a letter in support of a boycott, to whom ever in NY would be appropriate. If all gun rights organizations got behind such a movement, it could have an impact.
If DC v. Heller has any teeth, this would seem to be the test case to challenge NYC.
They are like the people who faint at the sight of blood or spiders, beyond all reason.
Many years ago a couple with 2 boys, about 6 and 8, came in the store for paint. They picked the colors and I was mixing them and talking to the husband. The mother and kids were just looking around. All of a sudden she came charging by dragging a kid in each hand and ran out the door. The husband went after her to see what the problem was.
We had a large display of machetes, cane knives and axes, she saw them and didn't want her sons to see them! The husband actually asked me why we displayed things like that openly.
Can you guess where they were from?
It is just unmitigated Batcrap crazy!
I had an apartment in NY city for years and I always carried a snubby 38 {without a NY permit}.
I knew the legal risk, but in the last year I had my place in the city they set a record with 2,000 + gun murders in the city.
I decided that carrying was worth the legal risk.
The last time I was in the city I was carrying {went to see the Rocketts at Christmas a few years ago, had dinner and went to ground zero.
I would never go into that hell hole unarmed, and I rarely go back.
I would also not advising using a gun unless it was your absolute last resort to save lives, because you will go to jail.
Meanwhile bumberg allowed the occupiers to rape,steal property and break multiple laws, nyc is really the theatre of the absurd
It is a pity that this happened anywhere in these United States. I guess she wasn't aware she left when she entered NYC.
The way I look at it, if my gun is not allowed then I don't want to be there anyway!
Maria from Memphis

Note: As of summer 2015, we were informed by our readers of a possible reformulation of this product. We appreciate your patience while we take the time to thoroughly update this review!
Ultimate Sheer Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 wins instant points for listing titanium dioxide plus avobenzone among its active ingredients, so sufficient UVA protection is assured. It has a slightly fluid, thin texture that blends decently and sets to a nearly matte finish suitable for normal to slightly oily skin. True to its name, coverage is sheer and definitely more akin to a tint than a true foundation. All four colors are excellent and there are options for light to tan skin. The formula is fragrance-free.
Note: This foundation's rating is due to its overall performance rather than its SPF rating. Due to concerns about people not applying sunscreen liberally enough to get the amount of SPF protection stated on the label, it is often recommended to look for SPFs with ratings higher than 15. If you plan to use foundation as your sole source of facial sun protection, consider using one rated SPF 20 or greater. If the foundation with sunscreen you choose is rated less than an SPF 20, we strongly advise applying it over a daytime moisturizer rated SPF 15 or greater and following it with a pressed powder rated SPF 15 or greater. That way, you're ensuring sufficient broad-spectrum protection which is essential for having and maintaining healthy, younger-looking skin at any age.

$3 Tinted Moisturizer
By Maggie
from undisclosed
Comments about Wet 'n Wild Ultimate Sheer Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15:
Bought after reading this review. I've been using this for about a month and am really happy with the results. I just add a dot to my facial sunscreen to tint it a bit. It doesn't provide coverage, but it does slightly mattify and takes the white cast down, which is what I was hoping for. Super cheap but nice product. Colors are hard to find. The lightest shade will probably be too dark for me in winter, and I'm not that pale, but coverage is so sheer that I'm not too worried about it.

Formula Has Changed
By Andi, D
This used to be a good TM for combo/oily skin, but the formula changed and now only has Octinoxate and Oxybenzone as the SS actives and the formula is now too sheer,and greasy/shiny. What a shame.
Beautypedia Team Response:Hey there! Thanks for the info! We've reached out to Wet N Wild for clarification and will get the review updated soon if needed :)
It's good.
By KT L.
A 3.99 tinted moisturizer that my dry skin can wear that has coverage like a foundation...Yes. The colors can be challenging but my light skin tone found that beige was best. I used sun-kissed in the summer. Natural has a grey tint to it and buff was similar to beige but went a bit pink on me. It's worth a try.

No significant UVA protection!
By connie p
I bought 2 (lot number 120548 exp 2015/03 and lot 121635 exp 2015/05) a month ago. The actives listed are Octinoxate 6% and Oxybenzone 2%. Too late to return them when I noticed this. Your review says it has titanium oxide. I am tossing these. Otherwise, the makeup is very good and sheer.From now on, I will check the igredients list as soon as I buy.
Active Titanium Dioxide (w/w 5.6%), Octinoxate (w/w 3%), Avobenzone (w/w 1%)
Inactive Ingredients: Water (Aqua/Eau), Talc, Butylene Glycol, Mineral Oil (Paraffinum Liquidum), Stearic Acid, Mica, Glyceryl Stearate, Iron Oxides (CI 77492), Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Sodium Laureth 4 Phosphate, Phenoxyethanol, Iron Oxide (CI 77491), Triethanolamine, Xanthan Gum, Iron Oxides (CI 77499), Methylparaben, Disodium EDTA, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Propylparaben, Butylparaben, Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis) Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid)
Wet 'n' Wild At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive, good tinted moisturizer with sunscreen; some attractive bronzing powders; mostly good eyeshadow and lipstick options.
Weaknesses: Unimpressive concealers; large assortment of average to poor eyelining products; the mascaras do little to impress; some lip products suffer from the inclusion of irritants; the makeup brushes.
Wet 'n' Wild is one of the few cosmetics companies around that prides itself on being extraordinarily cheap, although the prices have increased across the board since we last revisited this brand. But don't let its hokey name and pre-teen marketing tactics deter you, because there are some great options available, and the packaging has improved in almost every category. The best-performing products will seem like steals, while the less impressive to horrible products will quickly have you thinking, "you get what you pay for." It is not very often that a line offers such a procession of clear-cut winners and dismal losers, but once you know what to focus on, you won't get soaked by Wet 'n' Wild. This line is available in most major drugstores across the country, and, like most drugstore lines, does not offer testers. Interestingly, the selection of Wet 'n' Wild in Canadian drugstores tends to be better than what U.S. shoppers will find.

Topics covered include miscellaneous types from today and the past, pursers, smaller craft, visiting boats and boats which were lost to sea or have been scrapped. A number of older boats are included to illustrate shapes and designs, which are often held to retain a measure of character and individuality perhaps not as prevalent today.

Shetland and the Great War
Linda K. Riddell
Linda K. Riddell
The Great War was a global disaster whose social and political repercussions are still being felt today. Its impact on the people of Shetland is, however, much less well known than that of World War II and this book remedies that disparity. It shows that the experience of Shetlanders was varied, having much in common with that of the people in the UK and elsewhere, but also features which were specific and unusual.
