Student and adult volunteers from Savannah's Independent Presbyterian Church spent three days (6/23-6/25) repairing and remodeling homes in Live Oak.
Pastor Brad Waller says they choose the work over other options.
Explains Waller, "I tell the kids a lot of times, we're made to serve, and so when they're doing this, they'll experience joy. I tell them all the time, if you want to have a recipe for a miserable life, then focus on yourself."
Homeowner Elane Owens says she feels 'blessed' after getting so much help.
Says Owens, "It's just so expensive for me to try to keep up with today's society and remodel a home. So, by the grace of God, I was able to do it because He sent angels to me."
This is the second year the group has helped the Live Oak community.
Local organization 'Love INC' helps pre-screen homes that volunteers work on.

FRIDAY FUNNY: Bovine Boosters Buoy Bowl
On the farm in Michigan, methane gas is being captured before it enters the atmosphere. This action generates registered carbon credits, which Entergy is purchasing to offset greenhouse gas emissions from Super Bowl-related activities.
FRIDAY FUNNY: Bovine Boosters Buoy Bowl
What does a 300-cow dairy farm in Central Michigan have to do with the festivities surrounding Super Bowl XLVII in New Orleans? The answer: The farm is one of three carbon offset projects providing carbon credits aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions associated with the big game.
The carbon credits are part of a larger "Geaux Green" initiative launched by the Super Bowl XLVII Host Committee, Entergy Corporation, and the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES) to limit the environmental impact of the Super Bowl. On the farm in Michigan, methane gas is being captured before it enters the atmosphere. This action generates registered carbon credits, which Entergy is purchasing to offset greenhouse gas emissions from Super Bowl-related activities.
The emissions include those related to travel to and from the Super Bowl by the players, coaches, cheerleaders, and other support staff from the two teams. The credits will neutralize or offset the environmental impact of power needed to operate Super Bowl venues including the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, and team hotels. Approximately 4,500 megawatts of power will be needed, resulting in some 3.8 million pounds of CO2. These emissions will be offset by the carbon credits provided by Entergy.
"Entergy is committed to protecting our environment, and the Super Bowl offers a unique opportunity to showcase creative programs aimed at making a difference," said Patty Riddlebarger, director of corporate social responsibility for Entergy Corporation and the environmental initiatives chair for the New Orleans Host Committee.
Football fans can do their part by visiting the Geaux Green website. An easy-to-use calculator helps determine the carbon emissions associated with their trip to the big game. Fans can select how much of their travel they want to offset (starting at $5) and choose the carbon-offset project from which they would like to purchase credits. Entergy is matching fan offset purchases dollar-for-dollar.
Offset projects include a landfill gas collection project in Denton, Texas, a forest conservation initiative in the heart of California's redwood region, and the methane-capture project in Michigan. All three projects have been certified to deliver the promised greenhouse gas reductions by the Climate Action Reserve.
The Geaux Green website also offers an environment-themed game for all football fans—traveling to the game or not. Visitors to the site can make pledges to take simple steps to reduce their energy use and environmental impact in the coming year. Entergy is matching all Geaux Green game pledges. In all, Entergy estimates that the company's offset purchases related to the Super Bowl will result in more than 26 million pounds of avoided greenhouse gas emissions.
"Hosting the Super Bowl in the city where Entergy is headquartered is exciting," said Riddlebarger. "Through Geaux Green, we're assuring the benefits of the big game are far-reaching and everlasting."

I have 100 cows I am willing to send to the butcher and donate the meat to feed homeless people. I will not buy any more cows – ever. In exchange for agreeing to eliminate 100 cows worth of bovine flatulence in perpetuity, I will generate carbon-offset credits every year for many generations of my future family. And I am willing to sell those to YOU! (At a very reasonable price!)
It's a win-win for everyone! I get to sit on my porch and watch the grass grow. You get carbon-offset credits. And together we save the planet! Long live Agenda 21!

It publishes papers in applied economics broadly defined. The purpose of the journal is to enhance the study of economic issues such as monetary policy, fiscal policy, exchange rates, international economics, economic growth and development, labor economics and relations, regional and urban economics, industrial organization, applied microeconomics, energy economics, public policy, economic programs, and other timely and concerned subjects. A wide range of applied economic researches with high quality are concerned with behaviors and policies of economic organizations and producers, consumers and governments. The journal plays an important role in promoting the scholarly investigation of issues involved in economics activities and in providing opportunities for sharing the results among members of the academic community. http://www.macrothink.org/journal/index.php/rae/article/view/9648 The Impact of the Volume of Deposits and Facilities and Profits on Bank's Liquidity an Exploratory Study on Jordanian Commercial Banks 2016-06-26T07:23:49-07:00 Taha Barakat AL-shawawreh firstname.lastname@example.com
Banks liquidity is the main driver of banking operations, and the lack of the sufficient liquidity prevents banks from performing their role as a mediator between money owners and funding seekers, in addition to inability to meet the costs of daily operations including employees' salaries. And this puts the bank in a risky situation threatening the bank survival. So bank liquidity shortage has consequences damages of social and economic. Where this shortage may deprive the funding seeker from establishing a business or industrial project or etc. of projects, which may contribute in economic development in the country in the one hand, and deprive his family from gaining additional income to improve their livelihood from the other hand.

Therefore, one can find that banks have paying increased attention towards liquidity, and Central Banks Keep on liquidity ratios that banks should keep them. As long as banking deposits facilities, and profits are the actual drives of banks liquidity, this study examines in the effects of these activities on liquidity in Jordanian Commercial banks.

they receive health services. Frequently these include doctor consultation fees, purchase of
medication and hospital bills. In this study hierarchical clustering method was used for
classification of 34 countries which are members of OECD (Organization for Economic
Cooperation and Development) in terms of out of pocket health expenditures for the years
between 1995-2011. Longest common subsequences (LCS), correlation coefficient and
Euclidean distance measure was used as a measure of similarity and distance in hierarchical
clustering. At the end of the analysis it was found that LCS and Euclidean distance measures
were the best for determining clusters. Furthermore, study results led to understand grouping
of OECD countries according to health expenditures.

Newman Government rules out 'handouts' to flood victims seeking compensation
- From: The Courier-Mail
- August 23, 2012
LEGAL action is the only avenue left for people seeking compensation for the 2011 floods, with the State Government ruling out any "handouts".
Premier Campbell Newman yesterday declined to comment directly on a Crime and Misconduct Commission report which cleared SEQWater engineers of wrongdoing.
The findings left victims frustrated that the CMC had not investigated the critical question of why huge releases were made from Wivenhoe Dam on January 11, 2011, that triggered the devastating flood.
Mr Newman has previously ruled out further inquiries and yesterday said his government was getting on with implementing the 175 recommendations of the Flood Commission of Inquiry.
"19 recommendations (have been) completed to date," said the Premier.
"Our first priority is making the improvements needed before summer to ensure we are better prepared to respond to any disasters which might arise over the next wet season."
Last month Mr Newman said people still hoping to be compensated for flood damage could go to court and promised his government would not make it "difficult for them".
"If people can prove their case, than of course they should go to court," he said on July 26.
"I'm just saying...there was a Commission of Inquiry, there was no finding that said that "there was a flooding issue caused by the government, the dams" and therefore we're not just going to hand out money to people."
He said it would be financially irresponsible for the government to compensate victims.
"We've got a responsibility to protect everybody in Queensland from just handing out money."
The US Army is currently assisting with a review of the dam operation manual, which the CMC found was "flawed".
The review, which was recommended by the Commission, will be completed in October.

How Much Does a Dachshund Cost?
The daschund is a dog breed belonging to the hound family; they are characterized by their short legs and long bodies. These dogs often accompany hunters as some are bred to scent out burrowing animals and others are developed to hunt smaller prey like rabbits. The price of a dachshund varies depending on the breed of the dog, the breeder you adopt from and how old it is. The trend of the pricing is that they are usually more expensive if they are still puppies. There are different types of dachshunds available for sale by different breeders.
"Dachshund" (CC BY 2.0) by slwilson1984
How much is it?
- A regular daschund puppy whose age ranges from 3 to 5 weeks can cost you anywhere from $300 to $500.
- A smooth daschund's price starts from $550 to $800. The range of their age is from 26 weeks to 3 years and 16 weeks.
- A wire haired dachshund is another variety of this breed. These dogs are also for sale and can cost you anywhere from $200 to $500. Like the other varieties of this dog, their age plays a factor in the pricing. These dachshunds are from 9 to 43 weeks old.
- An older dachshund that is older than a year old can cost $100 to $250.
What are the extra costs?
- Most of the sellers would have the dogs licensed already. However, if you purchase an unlicensed dog, you will have to register it for $15 to $60. Also, renewal of license is also required and it runs from $15 to $30. This is all going to vary on your county/city. Be sure to check with your local city to get more information.
- The accessories, the start-up vet bills, shots, and more may all be extra costs at the beginning if the breeder does not include any of these items. Everyday items such as food will also cost extra.
What is going to be included?
- A license can be included when you purchase the dog from a seller. This is usually included especially if the dog is no longer a puppy since the owners would have to register them. Be sure to ask for one to ensure that you have it for your records.
- Most reputable breeders will also include the official paperwork, shots, and a start up kit to ensure that you have everything the puppy needs for the first few weeks.
Tips to know:
- Most dachshund breeds are going to be rather laid back. Like most breeds, there will be the occasional hyper one.
- Most will require next to no grooming. While it's best to give that occasional bath and tooth care, a dachshund tends to shed very little.
- Becoming overweight is a very large issue for this type of dog. It's best that you learn how to balance a diet as well as give them the proper amount of food on a daily basis.
How can I save money?
- Check with various breeders in your area as well as online. Ensure that you ask about the paperwork, etc.
- Look for a registered dachshund. Although this will prevent you from naming your dog, it will enable you to save up on licensing fee.
- If you don't care to have a puppy, the older the dog gets, the less it is going to cost you.
- Check with local shelters such as the Humane Society. While a puppy won't be found here, there's a rather good chance that you could adopt a dog that is over the age of 2+

April 25, 2012
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the availability of up to $20 million in FY 2012 grant funding to establish clean diesel projects aimed at reducing harmful pollution from the nation's existing fleet of diesel engines and improving air quality and Americans' health. In addition to these grants, approximately $9 million will be available through direct state allocations. EPA estimates that for every $1 spent on clean diesel funding, up to $13 of public health benefit is realized. This is the first competition since the Diesel Emission Reduction Program, also known as DERA, was reauthorized in 2011. The program cleans up existing diesel vehicles, many of which can be operated for decades, by targeting projects that utilize the most cost-effective clean diesel strategies. By reducing diesel emissions in areas that have significant air quality issues the program can have a direct impact on community health.
We offer e-newsletters that deliver targeted news and information for the entire fleet industry.

Lib Dem president leads bid to protect PRS tenants from unscrupulous letting agents
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Central Government and also in Communities, Housing
Tim Farron
The president of the Liberal Democrats is calling for the government to do more to protect tenants in the private rented sector from unscrupulous letting agents.
Tim Farron, MP for South Lakes, is a co-sponsor of a bill to deal with the issue in Parliament today under the so-called 10 Minute Rule.
The bill seeks to extend the powers of the Independent Housing Ombudsman, which currently only deals with complaints from social housing tenants against their landlord, but carries out spot checks on private landlords.
Across the country, tenants face exorbitant charges imposed by letting agents to prepare or renew contracts, perform credit checks, or carry out other admin costs.
According to research carried out by Rentify last year, some letting agents fleece tenants with fees of up to £600.
Farron will ask the government to ban exorbitant fees, undertake a review of the law as it applies to the PRS and make it easier for councils to set up landlord and property accreditation schemes. He will also call for a housing ombudsman service to be set up to deal with tenants' complaints.
The Lib Dem said: "I am very concerned that some tenants are being charged excessive amounts for the standard process of letting a flat, or for the repair or replacement of fixtures and fittings."
"There is no overarching regulation of the private housing sector and I am worried that tenants are at the mercy of unscrupulous agencies which see tenancies as a way of making extra money over and above the standard charges."

Man says he warned teenagers about trying to beat trains in Avon Park
12/17/2013 Avon Park, Fla. - RYAN PELHAM/STAFF A cargo train passes across West Main Street in Avon Park Tuesday afternoon near the area where a teenager was hit by an Amtrak train. The teenager was running along the tracks when he stumbled and was hit, according to the sheriff's office.
Jay Meisel | Highlands Today
December 18, 2013
December 19, 2013 at 08:31 AM
AVON PARK - Often times, local employee Anibal Kuilan would see teenagers during the late afternoon trying to beat trains as they passed at a slower speed through the city while walking home from school, Kuilan said Wednesday.
Kuilan, an employee of Santana Upholstery, said he warned the teenagers about the dangers.
"They just looked at me like I was crazy," he said.
On Tuesday afternoon around 3:15 p.m. those dangers came home to roost. The Highlands County Sheriff's Office said that Ralph Davis Jr., 14, tried to outrun the train. But, as he ran across the tracks in front of the northbound Amtrak train, he stumbled and the train hit his leg, Nell Hays, public information officer for the Highlands County Sheriff's Office, said in a press release.
Davis was reported to be in stable condition at Tampa General Hospital, where he was transported after the accident.
Kimberly Woods, who is with Amtrak Media Relations, said in an e-mail that Amtrak Train 92 was carrying 182 passengers at the time of the accident. No injuries to passengers or crew were reported, she said.
She said the train, the Silver Spur, travels daily from New York City to Miami and back.
Jim Deal, a board member for the Avon Park Depot Museum, said he was at the nearby thrift store when he heard a woman screaming Tuesday afternoon. He said he went outside and saw the teenager hit by the train lying about 6 to 8 feet from the train,
It was obvious from the teenager's leg injuries that he couldn't have moved that distance by himself, Deal said.
"I'm sure it (the train) pushed him out of the way," he said.
Deal said that two trains travel north and two trains travel south each day.
City Councilman Garrett Anderson, who owns a factory near the tracks, said he didn't see the accident, but saw the train stopped. At the time, the train, while stopped, crossed onto the north side of Main Street.
"That's a shame," he said of the accident.
Although he didn't know about teenagers racing, Anderson said, he has seen children crossing the tracks.
Kuilan said he hoped that the teenager he knows the best wasn't the one who got injured. He said four to six teenagers would regularly try to outrun the train. They would do it when they heard the train beep its horn, he said.
"I told them one day you're going to get hit," he said.
Joyce Swant, who works at the nearby Main Street Tap Room, said if she had a son who was doing that she would discipline him.
"Their (the ones who were trying to beat the train) parents need to be notified," she said.

Lead singer of '60s rock group the Grass Roots dies at 67
Steve Marinucci, Vintage Rock 'n' Roll Examiner July 11, 2011 - Like this? Subscribe to get instant updates.
Rob Grill, lead singer, songwriter and bass player of the '60s rock group the Grass Roots passed away Monday morning, his wife Nancy said in a statement. He was 67.
Grill was hospitalized earlier this month after suffering a fall in his home. He later had two strokes while in the hospital.
In her statement, Nancy Grill wrote, "My dear husband Robert Frank Grill, 67, of Mt Dora, Fl passed away peacefully in my arms at 11:37 a.m. (EST), while listening to one of his favorite songs Lets Live for Today. He loved his fans and he loved The Grass Roots! Thank you for all of your prayers, love and support during this time."
She said that among those who had been in contact with her recently were Mark Volman of the Turtles and Gary Puckett of the Union Gap.
(Excerpt) Read more at examiner.com ...
He was touring as the only original member of the band back in the nineties. I saw him in person. They were still doing a creditable job on "Midnight Confessions," "Temptation Eyes," "Sooner or Later,"etc... They were a very masculine sounding band. I always thought they were great.
Great job, Rob. Blessings and out.
One of my fav's back in the day.
KHS Class of '71
Sooner or Later:
RIP Rob. Great job. Prayers going up.
Saw the Grass Roots with The Buckinghams and Herman's Hermits about 5 years ago. They sounded great and seemed to be liked much more than the Hermits which were suppose to be the anchor band. Afterwards they signed autographs and I remember Rob being very friendly and gracious. Too bad he went so young.
Band member Creed Bratton can be seen as "Creed Bratton", Quality Assurance Officer, in the American NBC television situation comedy The Office.
The string of hits and excellent songs by the Grass Roots is impressive. I saw Rob Grill and the Grass Roots back at the University of Tennessee in 1982. Rob played the bass and sang as well as any musician anywhere. I took several of my younger classmates to see them that night and they were impressed with them. God Bless Rob and his family, his voice and songs are the music of my life.
A real tragic loss, I'd heard he wasn't doing well but wasn't aware it was a result of an accident. RIP Rob Grill and thanks for all the fantastic music.
Thank you for that!
"La, la, la-la let's live for today..."
Classic. It will live forever in the ears and memories of millions.
"Tempation Eyes" - always my fav Grassroots song.
I saw them/Rob in Louisville at an outdoor concert with my ex-fiance. Picnic supper and wine before show. The show was GREAT...and was the best part of the evening.
Sorry to hear of Mr Grill's passing. I saw them in '78 in Brownsville. Great show. Very few showed up for the concert.
Saw them about 20 years ago as a part of some VH1 oldies night at Jones Beach on Long Island. (I think The Turtles were there, too, and the guy who sang about the Cherokee people.)
If it was "oldies night" 20 years ago, what is it now?
I was in HS during the mid 60s - they dominated the charts.
"Temptation Eyes" - best of a great run of Grass Roots hits.
Oh, mark Lindsay, late of Paul Revere and The Raiders.
Coupla my personal favorites.
Wait a Million Years...."awesome"
Where Were You When I Needed You, one of the greatest R&R items of all time!
Dang! He was older than I knew.. Quite a string of hits. I've got the Rhino 2-disk Set... Well worth getting.
Sorry to hear of his passing, all those guys from the 1960s see to go so ironically in their 60s. What a great time for music, when musicians use to bust their butt to make a hit rather than dpeending on videos, TV shows and karaoke lip synching.
Kind of "Dylanesque", only with someone who could actually sing.
Kind of "Dylanesque", only with someone who could actually sing.
Right. That's the guy. No Raiders though.
Forget "it". What about "us"?
RIP. One of my all-time favorite pop bands.
Saw them in 2009 at the Beaumont Cherry Festival. They sang all their hits. A lot of fun.
The Grass Roots was one of my favorite groups. I remember there was a competition where they would sing at a high school, and you needed to collect gum wrappers.
We worked so hard I thought we would win. But we didn't. And I was really disappointed.
"God Bless Rob and his family, his voice and songs are the music of my life."
I could not of said it better.
This is a nice medley.
Ahhh the memories!
I still think this is the best record the Grass Roots ever made, and it may be one of their least appreciated hits . . .
Where have the years gone?
In 8th grade I had a history teacher who was about 23 or so.
Oh so pretty, strawberry blonde hair in a ponytail, dressed very nicely, always with a smile on her face.
"There's a little gold ring, she wears on her hand, that makes me understand......"
Snap out of it, Snuffa! She's pushing 70 now.
RIP, Steve.
He was touring as the only original member of the band back in the nineties.Believe it or not, Rob Grill wasn't an original member of the band . . . sort of. The Grass Roots had a kind of complicated beginning:
The Grass Roots was originated by the writer/producer team of P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri as a pseudonym under which they would release a body of Byrds/Beau Brummels-style folk-rock. Sloan and Barri were contracted songwriters for Trousdale Music, the publishing arm of Dunhill Records, which wanted to cash in on the folk-rock boom of 1965. Dunhill asked Sloan and Barri to come up with this material, and a group alias under which they would release it. The resulting "Grass Roots" debut song, "Where Were You When I Needed You," sung by Sloan, was sent to a Los Angeles radio station, which began playing it. The problem was, there was no "Grass Roots." The next step was to recruit a band that could become the Grass Roots. Sloan found a San Francisco group called the Bedouins that seemed promising on the basis of their lead singer, Bill Fulton. Fulton recorded a new vocal over the backing tracks laid down for the P.F. Sloan version of the song. The Bedouins were, at first, content to put their future in the hands of Sloan and Barri as producers, despite the fact that the group was more blues-oriented than folk-rock. However, the rest of the group was offended when Fulton was told to record their debut single, a cover of Bob Dylan's "The Ballad of a Thin Man," backed by studio musicians. When that single, released in October of 1965, became only a modest hit, the Bedouins -- except for their drummer, Joel Larson -- departed for San Francisco, to re-form as the Unquenchable Thirst. Sloan and Barri continued to record. "Where Were You When I Needed You" was released in mid-'66 and peaked at number 28, but the album of the same name never charted.Quite a story.
Amid the machinations behind Where Were You When I Needed You, no "real" Grass Roots band existed in 1966. A possible solution came along when a Los Angeles band called the 13th Floor submitted a demo tape to Dunhill. This group, consisting of Warren Entner (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Creed Bratton (lead guitar), Rob Grill (vocals, bass), and Rick Coonce (drums), was recruited and offered the choice of recording under their own name, or to take over the name the Grass Roots, put themselves in the hands of Sloan and Barri, and take advantage of the Grass Roots' track record. They chose the latter, with Rob Grill as primary lead vocalist. The first track cut by the new Grass Roots in the spring of 1967 was "Let's Live for Today," a new version of a song that had been an Italian hit, in a lighter, more up-tempo version, for a band called the Rokes. "Let's Live for Today" was an achingly beautiful, dramatic, and serious single and it shot into the Top Ten upon its release in the summer of 1967. An accompanying album, Let's Live for Today, only reached number 75. The group began spreading its wings in the studio with their next album, Feelings, recorded late in 1967, which emphasized the band's material over Sloan and Barri's. This was intended as their own statement of who they were, but it lacked the commercial appeal of anything on Let's Live for Today, sold poorly, and never yielded any hit singles. Eleven months went by before the group had another chart entry, and during that period, Sloan and Barri's partnership broke up, with Sloan departing for New York and an attempt at a performing career of his own. The band even considered splitting up as all of this was happening. The Grass Roots' return to the charts (with Barri producing), however, was a triumphant one -- in the late fall of 1968, "Midnight Confessions" reached number five on the charts and earned a gold record. "Midnight Confessions" showed the strong influence of Motown, and the R&B flavor of the song stuck with Barri and the band.
In April of 1969, Creed Bratton left the band, to be replaced by Denny Provisor on keyboards and Terry Furlong on lead guitar. Now a quintet, the Grass Roots went on cutting records without breaking stride, enjoying a string of Top 40 hits that ran into the early '70s, peaking with "Temptation Eyes" at number 15 in the summer of 1971. Coonce and Provisor left at the end of 1971, to be replaced by Reed Kailing on lead guitar, Virgil Webber on keyboards, and Joel Larson -- of the original Bedouins/Grass Roots outfit -- on drums. They arrived just in time to take advantage of the number 16 success of "Two Divided by Love," which was the last of the Grass Roots' big hits. The Grass Roots soldiered on for a few more years, reaching the Top 40 a couple of times in 1972, but their commercial success slowly slipped away during 1973. They kept working for a few more years, but called it quits in 1975. Rob Grill remained in the music business on the organizing side, and by 1980 was persuaded by his friend John McVie to cut a solo album, Uprooted, which featured contributions by Mick Fleetwood and Lindsay Buckingham. By 1982, amid the burgeoning oldies concert circuit and the respect beginning to be accorded the Grass Roots, Grill formed a new Grass Roots -- sometimes billed as Rob Grill and the Grass Roots -- and began performing as many as 100 shows a year. Their presence on various oldies package tours have seen to it that the Grass Roots' name remains visible.
---Bruce Eder, allmusic.com
And "Let's Live for Today" is still their second-best record, for my taste . . .
I feel the best music was made from the late 1960's thru the 1970's and the Grass Roots were one of my favorites. That music brings back a lot of great memories and I feel lucky growing up with it!

Angels in America, Part Two: Perestroika
by Tony Kushner
Angels in America, Part Two: Perestroika Spirituality Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Act.Scene.Line)
Quote #16
Joe: "AND THEN YOU'LL COME BACK TO ME!" (3.4.68).
Joe gets a taste of abandonment when Louis leaves him on the beach, saying that he needs to see Prior again. Now Joe is in the same position as his wife – he's been deserted by someone he loves.
Quote #17
Belize: "You walk out on your lover. Days don't pass before you are out on the town with someone new" (4.3.14).
To Belize, Louis' abandonment of Prior is made worse by the fact that he hooked up with Joe so soon after. Does this show that Louis is totally heartless, or that he missed Prior so much that he couldn't face being alone?
Quote #18
Prior: "If [God] ever did come back, if He ever dared to show His face, or his Glyph or whatever in the Garden again... if after all this destruction, if after all the terrible days of this terrible century, He returned to see... how much suffering His abandonment had created, if all He has to offer is death, you should sue the bastard. [...] Sue the bastard for walking out. How dare He" (5.4.47).
Prior advises the angels not to take God's abandonment lying down. Instead of meekly accepting the fact that the Almighty left the universe behind, Prior demands that they hold Him accountable. This moment connects with a lot of the themes of justice and judgment from Millennium Approaches. Much like when Louis deserted him, Prior demands that there be some sort of universal system of justice that punishes those who abandon others, even if the abandoner is the one who created the universe to begin with.
