Oh, please—"didn't know" . She is the chief govt. executive of the dept. charged with developing the system after the law was passed in 2010— ie 3 years ago. This is "dog ate my homework" kind of excuse—but provable incompetence that she never asked the developer for progressive meetings on the development and the beta testing. Apparently the beta testing was done 3 weeks before roll out with 100 people signing online at the same time.... and crashed.
Incompetence of a level that is purely political in protection. And millions affected by it. Cloward -Piven.
The Dog Ate His Homework.
As if it makes a difference that the president "didn't know" it wasn't working.
It his responsibility to make it work. He's in charge.
It's the day after the attack, and the lt col says to the general, "I'm sorry, but we didn't know that a thousand soldiers would need more food than we brought."
The answer: You are in charge, Colonel. It's your job to know.
Hell!!....Its "Peter Principle" from the 70's...dressed up like a pig!
Yes, BS. What was she telling him at cabinet meetings when it was her turn to speak? Outright lies?
Obama is a Potted Plant.

Don't waste time making this dish at home
- From: news.com.au
- April 20, 2013
- Don't try these at home: Pasta, ice cream
While you're at it, no D-I-Y Pad Thais, either
- Continue the conversation: @lucyjk | @newscomauHQ
PUT down your ice cream maker. Ditto the pizza oven. Yes, even the pasta maker, and any other expensive tool you bought so you could cook your favourite restaurant dish at home.
Don't worry, we'll give it back - right after we tell you that there really are some dishes that should never be attempted at home.
Yes, some foods really are worth leaving the house for. Elizabeth Meryment, food critic for the Sunday Telegraph told news.com.au Asian foods in particular falls into this category.
"For me, there are a whole heap of no-go areas when it comes to D-I-Y in the kitchen and most of those revolve around Asian food, and especially Thai. I'm actually not sure why anyone would want to make Thai food at home, not even Thai out of a ready-made-kit. Considering you can spend about $10 to get a sensational pad Thai or green chicken curry home delivered, it makes no sense to buy the multitude of ingredients you need for to do it at home," she said.
"I did try it once and have a brick of palm sugar in my pantry that's been sitting there for about three years. And after a lot of effort, the flavours are never as good anyway. A lot of other Asian food - Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese, say - are likewise very hard to do and so cheap to buy out," she said.
That said, there are plenty of dishes Ms Meryment said should be kept for home for quality and value for money.
"Pizza is one of the easiest and most successful things to make at home, with relatively few ingredients. If you have flour and yeast in the pantry you can make a good base in 30 minutes and all you need on top of that is tomato pasta and a tub of bocconcini. In the time it takes to get a pizza in the oven you could have a soggy processed pizza home delivered. It's not worth it," she said.
Do you agree? What dish would you always save for the restaurant kitchen?

We use pita bread for the bases of our pizza. They are great if you like crispy base.
Pretty poor Lucy Posted at 1:27 PM April 20, 2013
And what about the MSG used in asian food outlets (there was an article confirming its continued use on news.com.au the other day), and ingredients that people are allergic too? No , perhaps Ms Merryment just cannot make asian food well and thats the reason for dismissing it entirely, who knows, but a blanket dismissal is pretty poor even for a Lifestyle article. Arent you supposed to be providing 'how toos' not 'dont bothers'?
aj Posted at 1:25 PM April 20, 2013
This is the worst article i have ever seen. Most curries from stores are full of sugar and other crap. You can make curries with the same amount of flavour as my most curry houses at a fraction of the cost. Spending 1 hour making 5-6 servings of any curry for under $20 or getting one serving for $15-$20? Freeze the curry you don't eat and you have easy meals ready to eat. To be honest most foods are incredibly easy to make, it is just pure laziness that would send you out to get a takeout meal.

Gandalf Says
What he meant to say was…
First to whiff this rancid turd
Digital turds are the worst because they don't dry up and become edible after a few days
OK that last one made me giggle.
Marty, Gandalf's face proves you dead wrong.
Actually, it looks like he's giving a very toothy blowjob… well that's what I like to imagine…
There's something oddly… satisfying about how the long haired guy on the right is drawn. I like it!
And I guess you could say Gandalf's taking the hobbits to Isenfloored? (I should leave the LOTR puns to you)
I guess Hobbits are easier to draw then Balrog, huh?

Mature nerve cells generated from human cells using enhanced transcription factors. [Fahad Ali]
Although skin cells may be reprogrammed to form other cell types such as nerve cells, the "adult" status of the cell you start with may be lost along the way, perhaps irretrievably. That is, a reprogrammed cell may linger in an immature state. Instead of functioning like a fully developed cell, it may look as though it came from an embryo. Such a cell would be of little use in modeling the diseases that afflict adults.
For example, the methods used to generate nerve cells from patient fibroblasts tend to yield low numbers of cells, and those that are produced are not fully functional. Because these cells remain incompletely differentiated, they have limited potential as models of disease. To date, these cells—induced neurons—have been poor substitutes for cortical neurons, which could model stroke, or motor neurons, which could model motor neuron disease. Suitable models for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's are also lacking.
A new method of generating mature nerve cells from skin cells, however, has been developed. It could, in the near term, be used to improve models of age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. In addition, it could eventually generate mature nerve cells for transplantation into patients with a range of neurodegenerative diseases.
The method, developed by researchers at the University of Cambridge, was described online May 12 in Development, in an article entitled "The phosphorylation status of Ascl1 is a key determinant of neuronal differentiation and maturation in vivo and in vitro." (The same article is scheduled to appear May 27 in print.)
By manipulating the signals that transcription factors send to the cells, the researchers, led by Anna Philpott, Ph.D., were able to promote cell differentiation and maturation, even in the presence of conflicting signals that were directing the cell to continue dividing. Specifically, the researchers accomplished the cell-cycle-dependent phosphorylation of a key reprogramming transcription factor, Ascl1, on multiple serine-proline sites. This multisite phosphorylation is a crucial regulator of the ability of Ascl1 to drive neuronal differentiation and maturation in vivo in the developing embryo.
The researchers arrived at this approach after studying how nerves form in developing tadpoles. "A phosphomutant form of Ascl1 shows substantially enhanced neuronal induction activity in Xenopus embryos," the authors wrote. "Mechanistically, we see that this un(der)phosphorylated Ascl1 is resistant to inhibition by both cyclin-dependent kinase activity and Notch signaling, both of which normally limit its neurogenic potential."
The main result reported by the authors was as follows: "The use of phosphomutant Ascl1 in place of the wild-type protein significantly promotes neuronal maturity after human fibroblast reprogramming in vitro."
To arrive at such results, suggested Dr. Philpott, "not only do you have to think about how you start the process of cell differentiation in stem cells, but you also have to think about what you need to do to make differentiation complete—we can learn a lot from how cells in developing embryos manage this."

Each time Pat Hughes drove around Troup Square and looked at the Unitarian Universalist Church, she thought about the pews.
They once were cracked and pinched her when she sat down.
And most every time she looked up from those pews, a leaky roof taunted her to fetch the buckets one more time.
"It wasn't the most beautiful place in the world, but it meant a lot to lots and lots of people," Hughes said.
"It was always filled up with children. It was just an old building, but the people made it important."
Hughes always thought about visiting the building where she had worked for 30 years as activities director for the Savannah Baptist Center, an inner-city mission.
She never did. There was never enough time.
But each time she drove around the square, she noticed a change to the sanctuary that first held the Unitarians, then the Episcopalians, then the Baptists and finally the Unitarians again.
She saw Unitarian Universalists score and paint the white stucco exterior, making it resemble brownstone.
She watched them add a sandstone stoop and plant holly bushes on both sides.
"I know it's much different now," Hughes said. "I'm glad to see it's being used and taken care of and looking pretty."
This week, Unitarian Universalists will open their sanctuary to celebrate the building's 150th birthday.
The sanctuary was built on Oglethorpe Square under the supervision of architect John Norris and moved, possibly rolled on logs, to Troup Square decades ago.
Recently, it was renovated with the help of the late Mills Lane IV.
Unitarian Universalist member Milton H. Rahn remembered Lane as a private man with good taste.
"I'm one of his admirers," Rahn said. "We're just so happy we were able to save the building."
A musical touch was added with a 1948 Steinway mini-grand piano Rahn and his family donated to the church two years ago. The piano and a 19th century organ fill an intimate sanctuary .
"Downtown Savannah has a great diversity of religions and they're still going strong in their original buildings," said Beth Reiter, the city's preservation officer. "Buildings are the fabric of our downtown.
"History happens in buildings."

What Does the Bible Say About Narcissism?
I had a friend suggest this so I'm doing it because we're DESPERATE!
My son and I are being evicted thanks to a crappy roommate not paying his rent or share of the bills and I'm trying to get the heck out of Tampa and back home to Seattle. I lost my job in late October and Jason didn't work for 2 weeks in November and then again for two weeks in December due to the holidays so we just fell into that "one month away from homelessness" category that many Americans are in. Well, we're here and facing homelessness.
I've set up a GoFundMe page so if those of you who have found this site helpful could maybe consider helping us I would be incredibly grateful! This information was freely given and will always remain so. However, we're really stuck so I'm just reaching out to anyone remotely connected to our world (even the kindness of strangers) who would consider helping us not end up homeless!
Thank you for reading this post. I have no pride left, only desperation…things turned bad so quickly my head is spinning and I'm walking in circles so if you can help, PLEASE do! Also, if you could pray and/or put us on any prayer chains or lists you know, that would be awesome too.
The GoFundMe link is here: https://www.gofundme.com/janetbyers
Okay, we're going to start this post with a sledgehammer scripture…THE most difficult passage for a Christian adult survivor of parental narcissistic abuse to figure out how to give an answer to…the scripture that WILL get thrown at you like a grenade. Ready? You most likely already know it…and cringe.
"Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you." Exodus 20:12, NIV Version
Ka-blooey; you're dead.
If you're a Christian, you've already scrambled around your concordance trying to figure a way around that passage and most likely will even try to go back to the Hebrew to search out all the different meanings of the word "honor." Even if you're NOT a Christian, somehow the CONCEPT gets thrown at you anyway by society at large.
Here's the kind of stuff you'll hear (or feel): "We OWE our parents, ya know. They gave us LIFE and we are to honor them, to listen to their pearls of wisdom, to be grateful, to take care of them in their old age, etc., etc.
Doesn't matter how they treated us; raising kids is hard and…(say it with me now)…THEY DID THE BEST THEY COULD WITH WHAT THEY HAD!!!!"
"You are an evil, ungrateful child if you don't give them the respect and honor they deserve for all their hard work in raising you. Besides, no matter what they did to you, the Bible says to honor them…."
Haven't we all heard this stuff? Goodness, it basically means that we're going to go to hell for not wanting to hurt anymore, for choosing to stay away from our abusive parents…and that, dear ones, is a VERY hard pill to contemplate…let alone swallow!
Yeah, yeah, yeah…these lies are straight from the pit of HELL. That is NOT what God meant when He said "honor your mother and father"…not when they're abusive monsters who CHOOSE to blow past EVERY other scripture in the Bible about how THEY are supposed to raise, love, nurture and protect their children…AND also how THEY are supposed to act as human beings!
And how much worse for the adult Christian who came to the Lord AFTER leaving home, the one who has parents that are NOT saved and don't even pay lip service to scriptures. Somehow, most Christians will tell you that YOU are still responsible for loving them…even for changing them.
(Never mind that WE can't change anyone…we cannot even change ourselves by 'our own power' so how much more foolish is it for us to try to change anyone else?) Only through the working of the Holy Spirit can people truly change and that is hard enough as it is. How much harder for those who do NOT have the Holy Spirit?
There are other scriptures that get lobbed at spouses trying to deal with being married to a narcissist (or trying to get OUT of a sick, toxic marriage) and they are equally harmful such as "Now as the church submits to Christ, so also should wives submit to their husbands in everything." (Ephesians 5:24)
Since statistics show that 75% of narcissists are men, the "wives submitting" one probably gets thrown out more often than all the others combined. Narcissistic husbands often look sooooo good on the outside, and since their abusive behavior is so often sooooo subtle — and usually behind closed doors — that wives feel trapped in a marriage to a monster…with the church most often standing on his side.
But for men who have narcissistic wives, they have a whole 'nother set of scriptures thrown at them such as "Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard." (Matthew 19:8) Gee, guess this means that if you are a husband who wants to divorce his abusive, narcissistic wife, you must have a hard heart.
There are lots of scriptures that talk about God hating divorce and yes, husbands are called to care for (and manage) their families well. So Christian men with abusive wives will often stay silent, doing all he can to keep the family together and feeling shame that they are having problems.
And oh yes, let's not forget that narcissistic wives will make sure he feels like ALL the problems are ALL his fault and the church will often back her up. For example, he might get asked something fun such as: "Well, are you loving her as Christ loved the church?" or "Perhaps if you would just pray for her more…"
The church is often an unwitting partner in abuse and all these well meaning people are wrong. God does not honor abuse and all the platitudes and scriptures (taken out of context) do NOT help those being abused! Yes, we are to follow God's word but we HAVE to look at the totality of the word and HIS intent. To say God loves us…and then tell someone that the Bible says they have to stay be abused is insane.
I've heard remarks over the years that are not only ridiculous but incredibly hurtful as well such as: "Well, you made your bed and now you have to lie in it." Oh really?
So that young, beautiful daughter of yours is walking down the aisle toward your son in law…and in 3 months she shows up with a black eye, a bloodied lip and two cracked ribs. Do you tell her to go back because she chose to marry him, CHOSE her bed? For her sake, I hope you wouldn't.
Beside IT'S ONLY HER BED IF HE BEAT HER BEFORE THE MARRIAGE!!!
Otherwise, she didn't know and so the bed the HUSBAND chose to make is NOT the bed she thought she was getting; it's not "her bed"and she should NOT stay in it. (And if you ARE the kind of parent who tells her to return, YOU need help.)
I have another scripture that I'll bring into play regarding God allowing a spouse to divorce the narcissist (and it makes a huge assumption that will most likely annoy some who read it.) The assumption is this: I believe narcissism is demonic and evil and so that means that the narcissistic spouse IS NOT A BELIEVER.
You cannot follow God and be subject to the Holy Spirit and REMAIN A NARCISSIST. It is behavior that flies in the face of EVERY scripture about how a Christian is to behave. If someone is regularly behaving like a narcissist, they are unsaved.
And in that case, we have a scripture that tells us it is okay to divorce: "But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace." (1 Corinthians 7:15)
God does NOT like narcissistic behavior, friends, not from our parents or our spouses. We are NOT wrong for leaving evil!
I am not saying God completely absolves us of honoring our parents because that flies in the face of scripture. And most children of narcissists have been groomed so well that they are usually VERY obedient to their parents. It's only when we try, as adults, to back away from the sick, toxic, hurtful, CONSTANT and overwhelming games that the attacks begin in earnest, both from our families AND from well-meaning churchgoers who have no clue what it's like to deal with evil, reprobate people who abuse others. There is a list further down this page that tells us HOW to honor them even while staying out of their war zone of abuse.
I read this on Anna Valerious' blog "Narcissists Suck" (a blog I consider a "must read" for all who have suffered at the hands of a narcissist! (The link to the page on her blog that the following excerpt comes from can be found in my links section at right…I HIGHLY encourage any Christians struggling with narcissistic parents to read the entire post!)
"First, I can categorically state that there is no Biblical example of God honoring evil. We have no Biblical example or statement of God requiring His people to honor evil. We have scores of Biblical exhortations for God's people to rebuke and shun evil. If you are willing to acknowledge as truth these two realities then you will have to conclude that whatever God was telling us to do in the fifth commandment, He was NOT requiring us to honor evil."
I read this on Soaring Dove's blog "Freedom from Toxic People" and my eyes (and understanding) opened wide on the sentence that I've put in bold and italics:
"All of my life I have been tied/bound to a toxic/narcissistic/evil person who was formally known as mom. I have done what all the "experts" have recommended (even earned a degree in psychology) hoping that in some way the Momster and I could have a minimally functional relationship. I have tried everything humanly possible to break through her hardend cold heart, so that she would gain insight to how she hurts her children and destroys relationships, but nothing worked.
"Reprobates are beings who enjoying causing harm to others. Their attacks are Victim Specific, so they have both awareness and absolute control. They lack remorse because being evil feels good to them, thus they have no desire to change/repent." (Source: Dealing With Toxic People)
Titus 1:15-16 King James Version (KJV)
"Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate."
When I read that, I felt some kind of weight lift off me. It's true, my mother's behavior IS reprobate and has always been saved only for her children, behind closed doors and in secret. She doesn't treat other people the way she treats us…they would NEVER tolerate it so the narcissist is careful about showing their true colors in public. THAT, folks, is self awareness. That points to an inner knowledge and an understanding of the wrong nature of their behavior! THAT is reprobate behavior and GOD CONDEMNS IT!
The command to honor our parents has a promise "that you may live long in the land." Family structure is the basis for society at large. At the time, honoring parents meant listening to their teachings, which were based on the commandments of God and the entire society of early Israelites were all on the same page and operating under the same set of rules.
All around them were other societies that God considered evil (Sodom & Gomorrah come immediately to mind.) Societies who routinely sacrificed their own children in fire pits and the like. God did NOT want His people mixing with those people and it was the priests, elders and parents' job to make sure the people / their children were raised in the admonition and ways of the Lord to keep God's laws and live pure and holy lives.
That has not changed, God still wants this for our time BUT society has changed a great deal. It's not like God isn't aware of abusive parents and the damage they cause so could He REALLY have meant that we should honor our parents…no matter what? Doesn't make sense, does it? Should a daughter who is molested by her father as a child…and he wants to continue the relationship into her adulthood…be expected to honor him? Of course not!
But for some reason, Christians find it perfectly fine to condemn children of narcissists by telling them that somehow WE are responsible for helping our parents not be such abusive, evil people. WE are to forgive THEM. We are to continue serving them. We are to continue to "take it" and "turn the other cheek." It's insane advice to tell someone to stay under the evil control of reprobate people who do not have one shred of love in them…not for us and certainly not for God!
If you've been around a narcissist, whether parent or spouse, the scripture below is THE scripture that speaks of their behavior in a nutshell. I've always looked at it from an "end times" viewpoint but a man named Peter (who commented on this blog) pointed out a different angle which is: "have nothing to do with them." He said he thought it pretty amazing that the apostle Paul said 'stay away' completely because that is so rare in scripture. So here is the scripture:
2 Timothy 3:1-5 – "But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God — having a form of godliness but denying its power. HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM."
THEN, when viewing this passage in light of narcissists (rather than in the way I always have about end times) I read through the next verses and my eyes were opened:
2 Timothy 3:6-9 – "They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over weak-willed women, [they are the kind] who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth…these men oppose the truth—men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, ARE REJECTED. But they will not get very far because their folly will be clear to everyone."
Wow, I'd never seen this before. Obviously, the first verses describe narcissists in detail. But I've never seen the scriptures that allow me to have nothing to do with them! Then to read further that their "form of godliness" is utterly rejected floored me even more.
We are not only ALLOWED to walk away, God TELLS us to have NOTHING to do with them! This, for me, is a very comforting set of verses. I'm allowed to not stay stuck in a relationship with a vile, evil person. Thank you, Lord! I think this verse speaks to spiritual abuse in the body of Christ as well, a subject that will be covered more in depth on a different page on this site (when I get the page up, I'll link to it from here.)
I'm going to go one step further and talk about the devil (I heard that "ewwww" from those who are uncomfortable with the subjct) BUT the Bible clearly states that we wrestle not with flesh and blood but with principalities, with powers, with wickedness in high places. We are fighting the devil inside our parents (or spouses) when we battle narcissistic abuse. NO ONE who is given themselves fully to God can act abusive…it's not possible to claim to BE a Christian and yet ACT like a devil. The Holy Spirit would never honor that…and without the leading & guidance of the Holy Spirit, you cannot walk as a Christian on this earth.
The devil himself was the first narcissist and his work is shown in the behavior of narcissistic people every day…and the incredible damage they cause to their victims. Take heed from the 2 Timothy scripture that says "have nothing to do with them." God has given you an example of narcissism and clearly states "STAY AWAY."
This is your defense for the bombs and grenades that get lobbed at you from Christians.
The following is also from Soaring Dove's blog "Freedom from Toxic People"
(Janet's note: I'm going to add spouses/friends/spiritual abusers/etc. to the list below.)
How do we honor abusive, evil, reprobate, toxic parents?
- We honor them by not returning the abuse that they gave to us.
- We honor them by not wanting to destroy their lives, but to improve it/change it/transform it through Christ.
- We honor them by praying for their salvation and for their break though.
- We honor them by stop trying to save them, or change them, that it is Christ's job.
- We honor them by letting go and letting God work a miracle.
- We honor them by realizing that our enabling behavior & failure to give the ultimate consequence of no contact is getting in God's way.
- We honor them by not enabling them to continue their abuse with us or with others.
- We honor them by insisting that they get the professional help that they need, before they have anymore contact with us & our family members.

- We honor them by giving them clear boundaries and consequences if they are not remorseful and repent/turn from/change/end their abusive behavior, OR we will have nothing to do with them.

Thank you for sharing this. I have been trying hard to not feel guilty for standing for myself. My husband's church keep telling me that I should move back with him in order to resolve our marriage. He is abusive and scares me. My feelings have been minimized and I was told by the elder of his church to not listen to my feelings but move with my abuser.
I am still struggling but reading this has helped.

Thank you for this post. it is quite hard all these decades being told to honor your parents no matter what….
My sisters and i are very loving and forgiving all the time and we can only do that by the Grace of God in His ability cos it is not easy to do in our own ability when the woman who boasts about what a great leader she is at the church can be so abusive and nasty for decades.
thank God i live in a different country now with a good husband and i so not have to have face to face confrontations that my sisters unfortunately face. it still goes on with the messages and sometimes feel as if it is face to face. and now i am glad to find this blog – and i will read the other ones you reccomended.
Thanks again – let's all be strong in the Lord and gain His wisdom in every step.
God bless

Yes, honor them by honoring yourself first. I have too many examples of my going back and forth to honor that did not work, it got worse. Now, I will not go back without her deliverance from the demons that control her. No deliverance, no contact. So I honor her by praying that she happens upon a deliverance team that actually does confrontational casting out of demons and not some passive talking about the problem session. Then, it will be safe for me to go back as long as that door to those spirits stay closed. For the longest I had some resentment toward Jesus because of Honor they mother and father" was lingering over me and used to condemn me by my mother and others. I felt entrapped in this commandment that he and others didnt deal with. Their mothers baked cookies and were not narcissist and they had doting ball throwing fathers, so they are who condemned me the worse. But, then I kept searching, and boy were these scriptures not brought to light until recently:
Psalm 27:10-12: When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up. 11 Teach me thy way, O Lord, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.13 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
It acknowledges that parents Do abandon their children. Some validation, wow.
I had never seen these because I was too caught up in the whirlwind of guilt and condemnation.
Isaiah 49:13-16: Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for the Lord hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted.
14 But Zion said, The Lord hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me.
15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.
Again validating that some mothers DO forget their child.
So God knew Satan would tamper with this because of his commandment and he gave "lamb in the bush" scriptures of mercy and validation. Meditate day and night on these to make the guilt and condemnation go away and pray for your parents deliverance as well as your own and bless them when praying for them as with other enemies because we are to bless those that curse us and our parents have cursed us by abusing scripture and we are not under the curse with these lamb in the bush scriptures, but under grace.
I have dealt with rejection from others for being rejected by my parents. I realize I have to protect myself from many people who dont deal with abuse, because they will otherwise judge and condemn.
Be blessed.

Great article…hope you would now write on narcissistic children for there are a lot of them, they abuse their parents and others; we call them criminals
September 23, 2014 at 10:54 AM
Its been 2 days that I have been awakened to my malignant narcissistic mother. The last of her abuse happened 3 years ago. I kept wanting to pick up the phone and talk to her but I couldn't, and I felt it in my spirit that God wouldn't let me. Why wouldn't God want me to talk to my mother. God led me here and now its been 2 days and all I feel is so bad. I want to be lifted out of this but it was my emotions that lead me down to memories of my childhood. Through prayer God told me to feel and I did, and a lifetime of pain came back so hard.
Its been 2 days and I can barely move, I am in shock I think. In shock because she can't love, can't empathize, and the person I loved never existed.

THANK YOU!!!!! I am not able to quote the exact passage in the Bible ( but I am SURE there is one ) where the Lord says that people who won't repent are crushed to dust and excluded from after-life. He also says -on several occasions – how conniving plotting and scheming to bring down your fellows is unacceptable behavior -it is a sin of course- My point is to show appreciation to you for your efforts on behalf of victims -such as myself.
And I thank GOD that I ended up here! When I went on line I didn't know that narcissist is a term used to describe the behavior of the woman was raised by and the man I married and several others who slithered up over my life time. When I went on line today the word Narc meant police informant or snitch. It is beyond me to describe the series of moves by which I ended up here! so…thanx again. I will return but right now have A LOT to process!

I am correcting a mistake the narcissistic women was not my high school sweetheart, she is married to my high school sweetheart. Sorry I didnt catch this when proof read.
April 29, 2014 at 7:15 AM
I am dealing with a narcissistic individual who by all means has tried to bring me down. But me having a one on one relationship with god her attempts failed, so she has gone after my 20 yr old son, this women is my high school sweetheart who I share a son. This 7s his wife. Her jealousy revolves around the relationship my family has with my ex and his family this includes my husband of eighteen years. She couldnt stand that we all adjusted to circumstance. We would even have outings together including my ex and husband. My ex excepted my marriage and new children as I excepted his relaionships.
This didnt happen overnight nor is something on a weekly basis. Learning to get along and every so often all get together was healthy for our son and our soul.
When my ex met a new women I gracefully met her and accepted her. For who he chooses to date or marry is none of my concern, but it was my choice to get to know her and accept her.
She played her role in the beginning, acted as if she accepted are arrangements and close friend, it was that soon after he married her . The suble attacks begun. I ignored it. And eliminated the close friendliness, between my ex's family and mine. I figured if she is uncomfortable its his life. And getting along for my son was mor important. But she couldnt let go, call me mother with munghous disorder, then called cps saying I never got medical car for my kids. She was in every painstakingly instance that caused my family grief. Even though she caused pain I always let roll off, I guess she realized she wasnt winning. So now 6 years later and my son now twenty and my ex always working out of state she has set her claws in my son her step son. Who had witnessed all her evil doings torward me yet I never made him choose. But my ex is oblivious he has fallen for her falsehood . But she is now having un appropriate relations with my son, him being unexsperienced and a twenty year old virgin, fell forvher seduction. He recently tried to kill himself. She had no remorse. But I have to handle this with caution and im in a roadblock.
My mom, husband my sons middle 16 year old brother all are aware of whats going . We have seen evidence. But like always I fear her sickness and manipulated ways if I try to tell my ex , my sons father. She plays the , " she just font like me, shes crazy there trying to cause problems. " two other times when this all started thats what happened.
I need advice, any ideas, this is serious and will effect my son for the rest of his life. How do I make my ex see. Or show solid proof. My husband even caught him trying to meet her in a parking lot at 11:30pm. She saw my husband and screetched out like a bat out of hell.
She is evil. There isnt an ounce of good. Her own daughter makes comments.

Thankfully we have not been put in a place of office to judge another as whether they are a Christian or not because of how they act.
It's worth remembering that it is our Spirit Man that has been born again not our flesh. Hence why the Apostle Paul said we are to crucify our flesh daily. Why! because it's full of narcissistic tendencies to be focused on self in varying degrees. Our aim is to walk after the spirit and not the flesh then we will be more Christ like.
I live with a narcissistic husband who is a Christian and once I grasped that truth I have been able to look at the whole sorry tragic mess in a different light.

Thank you so much for publishing this. I have friends who are still enmeshed and i want to be able to point them to scriptures put there to show them how to take control. My mum was very narcissistic but i have only realized this in the past few weeks. Fortunately for me i left England at the age of 21 and broke my mother's immediate hold over me. I am now 61 and she has died now, but i had not forgiven her till recently. In our minds we think that forgiveness lets them off the hook but it does not change anything except to give us the freedom to move on with our lives. When reading some of this blog i realized that there are people to whom i owe apology, as i must have learned some bad ways in the 17 years i lived at home. I have repented of my thoughtlessness and lack of understanding and if any people i have offended read this ,,,,i was wrong…..i am sorry!
Where possible I will say this directly to the people, but I don't have any contact with some of them any more. It is so hard to watch people i love hurting and keeping themselves under the yoke of narcissism, but i have to let them make the choice for themselves i cannot "fix" them no matter how desperately i want to! All i can do is pray, love unconditionally, and be here if they need someone. Friends with narcissistic fathers are the hardest to reach as most have made God in the images of their father!! God is not like that. For all my life music has been the main thing to get me through the really tough times ( along with my horses, and more recently guinea pigs) and this link is awesome for down-to-earth tell-it -like it is music to help you heal.http://www.rockymountainministries.org/ Run by Don And Wendy Francisco.

This was excellent and I shared it on Facebook. I have been sharing this message for years since my own narcissistic abuse in marriage and mentorship. Please visit my Youtube channel at http://www.youtube.com/DelusionDispeller. Great job on this!
January 21, 2013 at 10:50 AM
what a blessing to run into this blog today is month # 6 of no contact with x N i had so many question about how to deal with the fact that he will go to hell and there's nothing i can do but pray for him . found peace and i know that what i did is the best, i was abandon by my mother and always felt like no one love me.. is not into i came to Christ that i know understand what love really is ,so happy to know that im not alone ,i still trying to figure out that voices that say to me u need to share your story i dont know where or when or how , i found so many blogs before but never about ,believers that share my same problem tough for a min there was none. God bless you this has been really helpful
December 25, 2012 at 11:57 PM
I cannot even begin to tell you how much this means to me. My narcissistic husband left me and our two daughters one year ago. He was a deacon in our church, a well respected coach, teacher, etc. and a monster!! I never left because I knew that God hated divorce and if my husband had not left me I would have lived with his abuse the rest of my life. God does not want his children to live like we lived and He does have better things for us. Thank you!!!
November 24, 2012 at 8:30 PM
The wording in 1 Corinthians 7:15 is slightly different to that stated, meaning (χωρίζω) more literally "to put a space between," which can be an emotional space rather than a physical space, so if they have effectively divorced you by stepping out of that "one flesh" space, the verse is saying that you can treat their act of divorce as real.
The other verse WRT divorce (Matthew 19:9) applies to a beleiving spouse, & has a word (πορνεία) usually translated as "fornication" or the like, meaning any kind of infidelity including spiritual infidelity (idolatry).
My ex-wife qualifies in both cases. I do not regard her as ever having been a believer (1Co 7) however even if she somehow works out to be one, she certainly worships herself in place of our Messiah (Matt 19). If there were no children (Master Thirteen, Miss Eleven) involved, No Contact would be a joy to enforce.
September 2, 2012 at 5:29 AM
I soo needed 2 read this. It has ended a lot of confusion. I have a person in my life that has been abusive that I still love. This person was abused as a child. I have no contact, but I wish all the best for her in this life. I pray 2 God 2 save her from her misery

Weedle trainer
Join Date:
Oct 2011
So.... last night me and some friends went and stayed overnight at a friends house. We pretty much did whatever while different people took turns playing Xbox games. I spent a large, large chunk of my time playing SoulSilver (didn't even go to sleep), resulting in a massive update, probably my biggest so far. Unfortunately since I didn't have my phone on me, I couldn't take screenshots for anything in this update. I'll compress it down a bit so it doesn't fill the whole screen. Here it is:
-Started the day at the Elite 4 building, Weedle at level 76.
-Will was first. His Xatu gave me some troubles since he can OHKO me but I can't do the same since Bug is bad against Flying. Eventually I won by making him miss (Brightpowder) so I could use 2 X Special Defenses.
-Koga was pretty easy, I just needed to use 6 X Attacks and a a few X Defs.
-Bruno was really easy, a few X Defenses made him easy to beat.
-Karen was annoying at first since her Gengar kept using Destiny Bond to kill Weedle, eventually I just won by 2HKO'ing her.
-As in LG, Lance was one of the easiest fights. I think I only had to try twice.
-After beating Johto, I got the boat ticket and boarded the Aqua.
-I beat all the trainers on the ship.
-In Vermillion, I beat the gym there.
-Went up to Saffron, took out all 4 gym trainers, and got the Upgrade.
-Went north to Cerulean, beat the 7 trainers to get the nugget, and then flew back to Saffron.
-Went west to Celadon, shopped, beat the gym, and went through Cycling Road beating almost all the trainers there.
-Went to Fuschia, and beat all the gym trainers there.
-Went east, and beat the most of the large quantity of trainers between there and Lavender.
-Got the Expn card at the Kanto radio tower.
-Saved the machine part for the power plant, and returned it.
-Went and caught the wild Snorlax just for the Leftovers.
-Went through Diglett's tunnel
-Beat all the trainers on the surrounding routes.
-Beat the gym trainer in Pewter City, and got the Rainbow Wing.
-Went south from Pallet and talked to Blue on Cinnabar Island.
-Went east from there and got to Seafoam Islands, and beat Blaine.
-Flew to Cerulean, made Misty go be at the gym, beat the trainers and Misty.
-Flew to Fuschia and beat Janine after a few tries.
-Flew to Pewter and beat Brock after a few tries.
-Flew to Saffron and challenged Sabrina. This one was actually kinda hard at first, since both Espeon and Alakazam were able to outspeed and OHKO me. Eventually I realized that if I leveled up once I could outspeed and OHKO Espeon, so I just battled her repeatedly until I could use the Quick Claw on Alakazam.
-Flew to Cinnabar, then Viridian, and challenged Blue. This one was annoying, since I had to try a bunch of times, and the only reason was because he kept getting critical hits. I must've been stuck there for at least 2 hours. As it was, to beat Arcanine I had to Hyper Potion spam and let him kill himself with Flare Blitz recoil.
-After beating Blue, I went to Celadon Mansion to get the GB Sounds (which I registered)
-Then I went to Oak's Lab, where I received the Rock Climb HM, which I taught to my Geodude.
-Next I went to the Celadon Department Store, for a pre-Red shopping trip. After that I had 120 Hyper Potions, 6 of every relevant X item, 30 full heals, and 20 Full Restores.
-Flew to Victory Road, and climbed Mt.Silver.
Now, I am saved in front of Red. Weedle is level 99, and I think I can beat him with some work. When I beat him, I'll post a video of the battle as I did with the Champion in LeafGreen.
EDIT: I've just been wondering out of curiosity: what are the rules for the 7th gym leader in Gen 3? It's a double battle. Up until this point, I've avoided every double battle in LG and HG, except the ones where you team up with Lance. My plan is to bring weedle, and a pokemon with an attack that won't affect the battle (example: swords dance) and have him spam that until he dies. Is that what everyone else does, or do they do something different?

MGM China reports 23pc rise in net profit
Macau casino operator MGM China posted a 23 per cent rise in year-on-year net profit during the six months ended June 30, driven by strong growth in the mass market segment.
Net profit reached HK$3.04 billion, while revenue increased 12 per cent to HK$13.7 billion. The company, which is 51 per cent owned by US-listed MGM Resorts International, announced an interim dividend of HK28 cents per share, compared with HK23 cents last year.
The company said it would continue to reallocate lower performing junket tables to the mass floor, a process which started since the beginning of this year "to maximise our yield".
During the six months, VIP revenue increased only one per cent from a year ago. The VIP segment in Macau, the world's largest gambling market, has slowed down its growth since the anti-graft campaign was rolled out on the mainland and this stopped many of the newly rich and government officials from visiting the city.
However, the mass market performance has been robust. MGM said adjusted ebitda margin reached 27.4 per cent in the first half, up from 26.3 per cent previously, driven by record business in the main floor table games segment.
MGM is working on the construction of a complex project on Cotai and is expecting it to open in 2016. The basement work is nearing completion and work is moving to the hotel towers, according to the company.
"We have awarded approximately 50 per cent of the construction contracts of MGM Cotai," said chief executive Grant Bowie. "And [we will] ensure our customers will be provided with an experience that has never been seen in Macau."
The company also said it would invest over HK$780 million in MGM Macau, its project on the Macau Peninsula, leading up to the opening of its Cotai resort.
