The phrase "moveable feast," while popularized by Ernest Hemingway's memoir, refers primarily to the holidays surrounding Passover and Easter. Although "Easter" is not a biblical word, Passover is a major holiday in the Jewish calendar. The origins of the festival, while disputed among scholars, are narrated in the biblical texts in Exodus 12–13

"The answers are in Washington's Bible!" Katrina shouts as Moloch stirs the dark, swirling clouds that will seal her once again in Purgatory. Her husband, Ichabod Crane, stands watching, unable to help as his wife is swallowed up in a world that he can only reach in dreams and visions. Ichabod has been resurrected from the dead in the twenty-first century and faces Death himself in the form of the headless horseman of Sleepy Hollow.

I get quite a few requests to review items on my blog - some jump out at me and some don't. This one, however, was one that I truly hoped I'd make it on the blog review team. The Apologetics Study Bible for Students is one I wish we'd had when my boys were younger. One of my sons has been deep into theology and apologetics since he could read - he just devoured anything on these topics and he would have thoroughly enjoyed this Bible as a reference tool he could sink his teeth into! The articles in the Bible (120 of them) are written by some of today's leading Christian thinkers and they deal with some of the big questions - Homosexuality, Yoga, New Age Movement, Cloning, Gambling, Scientology, Rape and Incest and more. The articles are thoughtful and well-written and give our teens some great topics to ponder. The Bible is created to be appealing to teens - both the design and layout. We also thought the Twisted Scripture articles were great! These are written to discuss topics that current religious movements use to twist Scripture and go against historic Christian teaching. This is another area where we want to strengthen our kids' faith in the world in which we live.
The other thing we loved about this Bible is the resource library of videos online. There are videos still yet to be added - but some there already as well that answer the tough questions in video format - you can stream them or download them OR even share to social media. I was excited with the quality of the videos and the topics they covered. http://www.apologeticsbible.com/video-archive/
Don't forget to enter the Confident Faith Sweepstakes while you are surfing - this is a great contest when you can win a Bible, mini apologetic library or even a trip! https://app.promo.eprize.com/confidentfaith/
ADDED BONUS - I was told I could give away a copy as well here on my blog! So - you get an entry for commenting below. AND leave a separate message for each social media platform you share this giveaway on and you will get additional entries. Winners will be chosen on August 7!
There are scenes in the Bible that cause a visceral reaction for even the most disinterested reader. As we view the Garden of Gethsemane in our mind's eye, we see one of Jesus' closest companions, Judas Iscariot, leading a band of men. He smiles broadly, "Rabbi!," greeting Jesus with a kiss. The kiss, that universal sign of intimacy and affection, lands on Jesus like a knife twisting in the back.

There is a pressing need to re-establish a cultural narrative for science. At present we lack a public understanding of the purpose of this deeply human endeavour to understand the natural world. In debate around scientific issues, and even in the education and presentation of science itself, we tend to overemphasise the most recent findings, and project a culture of expertise.
The cost is the alienation of many people from experiencing what the older word for science, "natural philosophy" describes: the love of wisdom of natural things. Science has forgotten its story, and we need to start retelling it.
To draw out the long narrative of science, there is no substitute for getting inside practice – science as the recreation of a model of the natural world in our minds. But I have also been impressed by the way scientists resonate with very old accounts nature-writing – such as some of the Biblical ancient wisdom tradition. To take a specific example of a theme that takes very old and very new forms, the approaches to randomness and chaos are being followed today in studies of granular media (such as the deceptively complex sandpiles) and chaotic systems.
These might be thought of as simplified approaches to 'the earthquake' and 'the storm', which appear in the achingly beautiful nature poetry of the Book of Job, an ancient text also much concerned with the unpredictable side of nature. I have often suggested to scientist-colleagues that they read the catalogue of nature-questions in Job 38-40, to be met with their delight and surprise. Job's questioning of the chaotic and destructive world becomes, after a strenuous and questioning search in which he is shown the glories of the vast cosmos, a source of hope, and a type of wisdom that builds a mutually respectful relationship with nature.
Reading this old nature-wisdom through the experience of science today indicates a fresh way into other conflicted territory. For, rather than oppose theology and science, a path that follows a continuity of narrative history is driven instead to derive what a theology of science might bring to the cultural problems of science with which we began. In partnership with a science of theology, it recognises that both, to be self-consistent, must talk about the other. Neither in conflict, nor naively complementary, their stories are intimately entangled.
The strong motif that is the idea of science as the reconciliation of a broken human relationship with nature. Science has the potential to replace ignorance and fear of a world that can harm us and that we also can harm, by a relationship of understanding and care. The foolishness of thoughtless exploitation can be replaced by the wisdom of engagement. This is neither a 'technical fix', nor a 'withdrawal from the wild', two equally unworkable alternatives criticised recently by Bruno Latour in a discussion of environmentalism in the 21st century.
Latour's hunch that rediscovered religious material might point the way to a practical alternative begins to look well-founded. Nor is such 'narrative for science' confined to the political level; it has personal, cultural and educational consequences too that might just meet Barzun's missing sphere of contemplation.
Can science be performative? Could it even be therapeutic?
George Steiner once wrote, "Only art can go some way towards making accessible, towards waking into some measure of communicability, the sheer inhuman otherness of matter…"
Perhaps science can do that too.

We print many different types of bibles here at Oxford University Press, one popular line being our Book of Common Prayer. While this text is used worldwide, you may not know about its interesting history. From the fact that there are a half a dozen books in print with this title, or perhaps that it is not so much a collection of prayers as a sort of "script" to be used, there is much you may not know about this text.

The post The Book of Common Prayer Quiz appeared first on OUPblog.
Nearly three hundred years since his death, Isaac Newton is as much a myth as a man. The mythical Newton abounds in contradictions; he is a semi-divine genius and a mad alchemist, a somber and solitary thinker and a passionate religious heretic. Myths usually have an element of truth to them but how many Newtonian varieties are true? Here are ten of the most common, debunked or confirmed by the evidence of his own private papers, kept hidden for centuries and now freely available online.
10. Newton was a heretic who had to keep his religious beliefs secret.
True. While Newton regularly attended chapel, he abstained from taking holy orders at Trinity College. No official excuse survives, but numerous theological treatises he left make perfectly clear why he refused to become an ordained clergyman, as College fellows were normally obliged to do. Newton believed that the doctrine of the Trinity, in which the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost were given equal status, was the result of centuries of corruption of the original Christian message and therefore false. Trinity College's most famous fellow was, in fact, an anti-Trinitarian.
9. Newton never laughed.
False, but only just. There are only two specific instances that we know of when the great man laughed. One was when a friend to whom he had lent a volume of Euclid's Elements asked what the point of it was, 'upon which Sir Isaac was very merry.' (The point being that if you have to ask what the point of Euclid is, you have already missed it.) So far, so moderately funny. The second time Newton laughed was during a conversation about his theory that comets inevitably crash into the stars around which they orbit. Newton noted that this applied not just to other stars but to the Sun as well and laughed while remarking to his interlocutor John Conduitt 'that concerns us more.'
8. Newton was an alchemist.
True. Alchemical manuscripts make up roughly one tenth of the ten million words of private writing that Newton left on his death. This archive contains very few original treatises by Newton himself, but what does remain tells us in minute detail how he assessed the credibility of mysterious authors and their work. Most are copies of other people's writings, along with recipes, a long alchemical index and laboratory notebooks. This material puzzled and disappointed many who encountered it, such as biographer David Brewster, who lamented 'how a mind of such power, and so nobly occupied with the abstractions of geometry, and the study of the material world, could stoop to be even the copyist of the most contemptible alchemical work, the obvious production of a fool and a knave.' While Brewster tried to sweep Newton's alchemy under the rug, John Maynard Keynes made a splash when he wrote provocatively that Newton was the 'last of the magicians' rather than the 'first king of reason.'
7. Newton believed that life on earth (and most likely on other planets in the universe) was sustained by dust and other vital particles from the tails of comets.
True. In Book 3 of the Principia, Newton wrote extensively how the rarefied vapour in comet's tails was eventually drawn to earth by gravity, where it was required for the 'conservation of the sea, and fluids of the planets' and was most likely responsible for the 'spirit' which makes up the 'most subtle and useful part of our air, and so much required to sustain the life of all things with us.'
6. Newton was a self-taught genius who made his pivotal discoveries in mathematics, physics and optics alone in his childhood home of Woolsthorpe while waiting out the plague years of 1665-7.
False, though this is a tricky one. One of the main treasures that scholars have sought in Newton's papers is evidence for his scientific genius and for the method he used to make his discoveries. It is true that Newton's intellectual achievement dwarfed that of his contemporaries. It is also true that as a 23 year-old, Newton made stunning progress on the calculus, and on his theories of gravity and light while on a plague-induced hiatus from his undergraduate studies at Trinity College. Evidence for these discoveries exists in notebooks which he saved for the rest of his life. However, notebooks kept at roughly the same time, both during his student days and his so called annus mirabilis, also demonstrate that Newton read and took careful notes on the work of leading mathematicians and natural philosophers, and that many of his signature discoveries owe much to them.
5. Newton found secret numerological codes in the Bible.
True. Like his fellow analysts of scripture, Newton believed there were important meanings attached to the numbers found there. In one theological treatise, Newton argues that the Pope is the anti-Christ based in part on the appearance in Scripture of the number of the name of the beast, 666. In another, he expounds on the meaning of the number 7, which figures prominently in the numbers of trumpets, vials and thunders found in Revelation.
4. Newton had terrible handwriting, like all geniuses.
False. Newton's handwriting is usually clear and easy to read. It did change somewhat throughout his life. His youthful handwriting is slightly more angular, while in his old age, he wrote in a more open and rounded hand. More challenging than deciphering his handwriting is making sense of Newton's heavily worked-over drafts, which are crowded with deletions and additions. He also left plenty of very neat drafts, especially of his work on church history and doctrine, which some considered to be suspiciously clean, evidence, said his 19th century cataloguers, of Newton's having fallen in love with his own hand-writing.
3. Newton believed the earth was created in seven days.
True. Newton believed that the Earth was created in seven days, but he assumed that the duration of one revolution of the planet at the beginning of time was much slower than it is today.
2. Newton discovered universal gravitation after seeing an apple fall from a tree.
False, though Newton himself was partly responsible for this myth. Seeking to shore up his legacy at the end of his life, Newton told several people, including Voltaire and his friend William Stukeley, the story of how he had observed an apple falling from a tree while waiting out the plague in Woolsthorpe between 1665-7. (He never said it hit him on the head.) At that time Newton was struck by two key ideas—that apples fall straight to the center of the earth with no deviation and that the attractive power of the earth extends beyond the upper atmosphere. As important as they are, these insights were not sufficient to get Newton to universal gravitation. That final, stunning leap came some twenty years later, in 1685, after Edmund Halley asked Newton if he could calculate the forces responsible for an elliptical planetary orbit.
1. Newton was a virgin.
Almost certainly true. One bit of evidence comes via Voltaire, who heard it from Newton's physician Richard Mead and wrote it up in his Letters on England, noting that unlike Descartes, Newton was 'never sensible to any passion, was not subject to the common frailties of mankind, nor ever had any commerce with women.' More substantively, there is Newton's lifelong status as a self-proclaimed godly bachelor who berated his friend Locke for trying to 'embroil' him with women and who wrote passionately about how other godly men struggled to tame their lust.

|Is Your Family's Faith Like a Fairy Tale?
In Dreams: A Way to Listen to God Morton Kelsey says, "…the Church has developed no theory that can bring the spiritual world closer to human beings." This is a powerful statement. One would think that it would be a primary function of Christian religions to do this. Instead, the mainline Christian churches have traditionally offered biblical and theological studies which provide intellectual and cultural understandings of Christianity, but have moved away from experiential forms of spirituality which might let us personally "taste and see" the glory of God. I think this is one reason so many people have left mainstream Christianity to explore yoga, meditation and other experiential approaches to connecting to something greater. Yet, as Kelsey points out in his book, dreams have always been part of the Judeo-Christian tradition, and he heartily recommends using them as a spiritual methodology to bring the spiritual world closer to us.
It's not like the spiritual world isn't trying to contact us. It does so nightly in our dreams! But how few people make an attempt to remember their dreams, and of those who do, how few make it a practice to honor, record, reflect and learn from their dreams?
One only has to pick up a Bible and see the frequent references to dreams and the important role they played in shaping people's lives. People who could interpret dreams, like Joseph and Daniel, were held in high esteem because it was thought that God spoke through dreams. In the Bible, the information received in dreams is shown to be very important such as in predicting times of flood or famine or helping a person in need. Joseph, the husband of Mary, was one of many who received an important message in a dream. He was told to not worry in taking Mary as his wife since the child she had conceived came in a most unusual way. All these characters in the Bible worked with and let dreams shape their lives—even when their lives depended upon it.
Perhaps, if we let God into our lives through our dreams, our lives would take on a much greater meaning and significance compared to the trivial and myopic views we hold in an uninformed waking life that is often driven by the demands of others as well as egoistic and material needs.
On (and off) the drawing board:
Everyone talks about the Bible, though few have read it cover to cover. This is not surprising—some sections of the Bible are difficult to understand without a commentary, others are tedious, and still others are boring. That is why annotated Bibles were created—to help orient readers as they read through the Bible or look into what parts of it mean. For those who have not read the Bible cover-to-cover—and even for many who have—here are some common misconceptions about the Hebrew Bible.
1. The Ten Commandments are the most important part of the Bible.
No biblical text calls them the Bible's most important part. Various prophetic texts such as Ezekiel 18 summarize righteous behavior, but most of these do not refer to the Ten Commandments. In fact, the English term "Ten Commandments" is a misnomer from a Jewish perspective, since in the Jewish enumeration, "I am the LORD your God…" is the first divine utterance in Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5, and it is not a commandment at all. Thus, Jews prefer to call these the Decalogue, "the ten sayings," which reflects the Hebrew aseret hadevarim (Exodus 24:38; Deuteronomy 4:13; 10:4).
2. We know what the original text of the Bible is.
Like all texts transmitted in antiquity, the Bible in its earliest stages of transmission was fluid. Scribes changed books that became part of the Bible accidentally and on purpose; this is now clear from evidence of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
3. The Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament are different names for the same books.
The Jewish Hebrew Bible and the Protestant Old Testament contain the same books, but in a different order—and order matters. The Catholic Old Testament is larger than the Jewish Hebrew Bible and the Protestant Old Testament. It contains the Apocrypha—select Jewish Hellenistic [Greek] Writings such as Sirach, Tobit, and Maccabees—and in two cases, Esther and Daniel, the Catholic book is larger than the Hebrew book, containing material found in the Greek texts of these works, but not in the Hebrew.
Different religious groups have different orders to the Bible. Christians typically divide the Old Testament into four sections (Law [=Torah], historical books, wisdom and poetic books, prophetic books), while Jews divide the Hebrew Bible into three sections: Torah, Nevi'im [prophets] and Ketuvim [writings]. Both of these ways of ordering biblical texts probably reflect different ancient Jewish orders that ultimately helped to define Jewish versus Christian identity. In addition, Jewish manuscripts show many different orders of the final section, Ketuvim, and the Babylonian Talmud notes an order of Nevi'im that is different than the more commonly used.
5. Everything in a prophetic book is by that prophet.
Many prophetic books contain titles or superscriptions, as in Jeremiah 1:1-3: "The words of Jeremiah son of Hilkiah, one of the priests at Anathoth in the territory of Benjamin. The word of the LORD came to him in the days of King Josiah son of Amon of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign, and throughout the days of King Jehoiakim son of Josiah of Judah, and until the end of the eleventh year of King Zedekiah son of Josiah of Judah, when Jerusalem went into exile in the fifth month." However, we never have the autographs of individual prophets, and often their disciples and others added material to early forms of prophetic books, in the names of the prophet himself!
6. The Bible is history.
The modern concept of history, judged by whether or not it gets the facts right, is by and large a modern conception. In the past, all peoples told stories set in the past for a variety of reasons, e.g. to entertain, to enlighten, but rarely to recreate what actually happened. Archaeologists have uncovered many cases where the biblical account disagrees with the archaeological account, or with what we might know from other ancient Near Eastern texts.
7. All of the Psalms are by King David.
About half of the psalms in Psalms contain the word ledavid, "to/of David," in their first sentence. But many do not. Some are anonymous, while others are explicitly attributed to other figures such as Asaph (50, 73-81). We are not even sure how ledavid should be translated—does it mean to attribute authorship to David, or might it mean "in the style of David"? Furthermore, none of the psalms reflects tenth century Hebrew, the Hebrew of the period in which David was purported to have lived, and several psalms refer to events long after that period (see e.g. Psalm 126:1). In fact, scholars do not attribute any of Psalms to King David. And at least in Jewish tradition, attributing all of the Psalter to David is not dogma, and several medieval scholars acknowledge the existence of later psalms.

The post Seven common misconceptions about the Hebrew Bible appeared first on OUPblog.
Moses and Pharaoh are returning to the big screen in Ridley Scott's seasonal blockbuster, Exodus: Gods and Kings. With a $200m budget and Christian Bale in the leading role, the British director will hope to replicate the success of Gladiator (where he resurrected the sword and sandals genre) and surpass the shock and awe of Cecil B. DeMille's The Ten Commandments. Even before its release, the movie sparked controversy. The casting of white actors as Egyptians provoked charges of racial discrimination; describing Moses as 'barbaric' and 'schizophrenic' did not endear the leading actor to traditional believers; and casting a truculent young boy as the voice of Yahweh was bound to raise eyebrows. In other respects, the storyline remains traditional. Indeed, the film follows a long tradition of interpretation by presenting the Exodus as a political saga of slavery and liberation. 600,000 slaves are delivered as an oppressive empire is overwhelmed by divine power.
This political reading of the biblical epic will be familiar to anyone who has studied its remarkable reception history. In Christian preaching, liturgy and hymnology, Exodus has been read as spiritual typology — Israel points forward to the Church, Pharaoh's Egypt to enslavement by Satan, Moses to the Messiah, the Red Sea to salvation, the Wilderness Wanderings to earthly pilgrimage, the Promised Land to heavenly rest.
Yet there has been an almost equally potent tradition of reading Exodus politically. It originated with Eusebius of Caesarea in the fourth century, who hailed the Emperor Constantine as a Mosaic deliverer of the persecuted Church. It took on new intensity when the Protestant Reformation was promoted as liberation from 'popish bondage'. As a vulnerable minority, European Calvinists identified with the oppressed children of Israel in Egypt and then celebrated national reformations in Britain and the Netherlands as a new exodus. The title page of the Geneva Bible (1560) pictured the Israelites pinned against the Red Sea by the chariots and horsemen of Pharaoh, the moment before their deliverance. Deliverance became a keyword in Anglophone political rhetoric, a term that fused Providence and Liberation.
Over the coming centuries, this Protestant reading of Exodus would go through some surprising twists. The Reformers had sought deliverance from the Papacy, but radical Puritans condemned intolerant Protestant clergy as 'Egyptian taskmasters'. Rhetoric that had once been trained on ecclesiastical oppression was turned against 'political slavery', as revolutionaries in 1649, 1688 and 1776 co-opted biblical narrative. For Oliver Cromwell, Israel's journey from Egypt through the Wilderness towards Canaan was 'the only parallel' to the course of English Revolution. For John Milton, tolerationist and republican, England's Exodus led to 'civil and religious liberty', a phrase coined in Cromwellian England. The most startling development occurred during the American Revolution, when Patriots unleashed the language of slavery and deliverance against 'the British Pharaoh', George III. The contradiction between their libertarian rhetoric and American slaveholding galvanized the nascent anti-slavery movement on both sides of the Atlantic. Black Protestants now seized upon Exodus and the language of deliverance. 'For the first time in history', writes historian John Saillant, 'slaves had a book on their side'.
African Americans inhabited the story like no other people before them. When they fled from slavery and segregation and migrated to the North, they consciously re-enacted the Exodus. In slave revolts and in the American Civil War they called on God for deliverance from Egyptian taskmasters. In the spiritual 'Go Down Moses', they re-imagined the United States as 'Egyptland', throwing into question the biblical construction of the nation as an 'American Zion'. They sang of a deliverer who would tell old Pharaoh, 'Let my People go'. They celebrated the abolition of the slave trade, West Indian emancipation, and Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation by recalling the song of Moses and Miriam at the Red Sea.
The black use of Exodus was not without its ironies. It owed more than has been recognized to the long tradition of Protestant Exodus politics, albeit reworked and subverted. African Americans took pride in the fact that Moses married an Ethiopian (Numbers 12:1), but they were embarrassed by the sanction given to slavery in the Mosaic Law, and by the Hebrews' oppression at the hands of African Pharaohs. Yet Exodus spoke to African American experience like no other text. Like the Children of Israel, their Red Sea moment was followed by a long and bitter Wilderness experience. On the night before his assassination, Martin Luther King Jr assured his black audience that he had 'seen the Promised Land'. Barack Obama talked of 'the Joshua Generation' completing the work of King's 'Moses Generation', but the land of milk and honey can still seem like a distant prospect.

What the Bible really says about Death, Judgment, Rewards, Heaven, and the Future Life on a Restored Earth. God originally planned for mankind to live on earth, and His plan, though postponed by sin, will not be thwarted – it will come to pass in the future when a new earth is created. The Christian's Hope shows from Scripture that each Christian will be rewarded in the coming world in direct proportion to the quality of how he lives for God in this world.

A Biblical Look at "Hope"
In order to properly understand the Christian's hope, it is important to examine the exact meaning of the word "hope." "Hope" means "a desire for, or an expectation of, good, especially when there is some confidence of fulfillment." It is used that way both in common English and in the Bible. However, the Bible often uses the word "hope" in another way—to refer to the special expectation of good that God has in store for each Christian in the future. This includes the "Rapture," receiving a new, glorified body, and living forever in Paradise. Today, the ordinary use of "hope" allows for the possibility that what is hoped for will not come to pass. However, when the Bible uses the word "hope" to refer to things that God has promised, the meaning of "hope" shifts from that which has a reasonable chance of coming to pass to that which will absolutely come to pass. To be a useful anchor, hope must hold fast.
Living in our rental house is not the only change we've been making in Roy's life – we've been teaching him Christianity 101.
He's been going to church with first his mom (Kevin's grandmother) and then with Kevin's parents all his life. And I'm not knocking church – it's great if you're getting something out of it. And by that I mean, you're studying God's word and learning how, and why, God wants you to live a certain way. It's a great place to fellowship with other Christians and to make life-long friends. God wants us to fellowship with other Christians.
However. If you dread Church, or you're not getting anything out of the lectures pastors give, then perhaps it's time to step back and re-evaluate why you're going or why you're not receiving God's wonderful messages.
That's where we are with Roy. Roy's churches have continued to use the King's James version of the bible. And there's nothing wrong with the King's James version, it's just an antiquated language that is not used anymore. It's hard for people to understand because we don't use that language anymore. And because people don't understand the language (or the culture in which the Bible was written), then people just assume that the Bible is not meant for us to understand.
God WANTS us to know how to read the Bible. He wants us to live our lives by rules laid out in the Bible. He gives us examples of how to live our lives and what can happen if we choose NOT to live by his rules. If we don't live our lives by His rules, then he is unable to protect us against Satan's tricks. And of course, it's Satan's goals to trick people into thinking they are incapable of understanding the Bible because then he will swoop in and create havoc in our lives.
So. Roy has made the decision of NOT going to church for a while and sitting with us when we have Bible study at our house every Sunday evening after dinner. We watch a few videos from the Truth or Tradition YouTube channel and then we all take turns reading out of the New International Version of the Bible. He made the decision to not go to church because he never felt like he understood anything that was taught. Too many churches focus on the hell and damnation of the Bible and though that is part of God's word, it's a VERY SMALL part of God's word. Or worse, pastors will pick and choose verses out of the Bible, taking them completely out of context, and use them to their own advantage. The first time I realized that was happening was the last time I set foot in a church. I have NO INTENTIONS of going back to church – ever.
God is about love and teaching us humility, compassion, forgiveness and HOW TO LOVE OTHERS. How is anyone expected to be inspired or moved into helping others when all they are fed every Sunday is scary crap about Satan and being fried alive in hell?
Think about it.
Anyway. After watching a video, I asked Kevin to bring up one of their older videos (we have it set up where we watch YouTube on our TV and Kevin controls it with his phone – TECHNOLOGY RULES!) where they talk about HOW to read and understand the bible. Kevin brought up this video:
We've been watching Truth or Tradition videos for as long as they've been making them and somehow, we missed this one. What a COOL summary of the Bible!!
And we started talking about buying Roy a Bible that he can understand – more like a children's bible. I wouldn't mind having a children's bible to read the basic stories myself. I'm not even sure I know all of the basic stories, to be perfectly honest.
I think all of us, deep down, are searching for something in our lives. Whether that's the meaning of life, how to make our marriages successful, how to raise a God-fearing child (and God-fearing is actually, more accurately translated, into RESPECTING GOD), how to seek forgiveness or how to cultivate patience … learning God's word, living a Godly life, tends to satisfy that hunger and produce peace.
Don't believe me? Try it. What have you got to lose?

I remember the Passover Seder as a very special time. My brothers and I got new clothes that we had to save specially until that evening; this heightened our sense of anticipation and symbolized the special nature of this holiday. I can still envision preparing for Passover in the Orthodox home of my childhood: I remember the frenzied work of emptying out all our cabinets, packing up the food we ate for the other 357 days of the year and lining all the cabinets, the stove, and the refrigerator with extra thick aluminum foil.

January 2008:
He was filled with dread, but he had to do it, for his father's sake, he had to marry her if he wanted to save his father's reputation and their home.
She knew she had to do this, she had to wed him becuase her father had said so,
and she would always obey her father for he had done alot for her.
He looked up and saw his 16 year old bride coming up to him for the sacred marriage vows,
She looked up to see her groom, he was handsome she thought and so much older then her,he was practically a full grown man, she had known her groom was 21 but she didnt expect to see him so, grown but before she could think further, her mother ushered her forward and the marriage vows began, after the marrage vows were said, and they were sealed to each other for life, both of them signed the addiotional contract papers, which said he had to collect his bride within 5 years of their marriage or they would be sued, and if he did come to take her but she refused to come, then they would to pay a penalty,
Two people were sacrificing their life for briniging peace in their families and saving their family reputation.
November 2012:
It was going to be a clean, uncomplicated kidnapping.
Ironically, the kidnapping would probably hold up in the courts as a completely legal undertaking, she was his wife after all, there would be the breaking and entering charges, of course, but that possibility wasn't the least significant. He was Arnav Singh Raizada afterall, he would deal with the minor charges.
Arnav Singh Raizada, the owner of AR industries , was fully prepared to use whatever methods he deemed necessary to gain success. If luck was on his side, she would be sound asleep.
If not, a simple gag would eliminate any sounds of protest.
One way or another, legal or otherwise, he would collect his bride. Arnav, wasn't going to have to act like a gentleman'a blessing, that, considering the fact that such tender qualities were completely foreign to his nature anyway. Besides, time was running out.
There were only six weeks left before he would be in true violation of the marriage contract.
And this my friends is my new FF, I know totally absurd, since I havent even finished my old FF, but this idea was just haunting me, the concept is fairly similar to The Gift by Julie Garwood, if you people like it, I will surely continue:)

The Oil Spill: A Conservation Photographer's Reaction
Florian Schulz, nature and wildlife photographer, is a founding member of the International League of Conservation Photographers. Concerned about the fate of the Gulf of Mexico in the wake of the oil spill disaster, he contacted the Picture Show with this reflection on his work in conservation photography.

For many years now there has been strong interest in expanding oil drilling in the Alaskan Arctic, both on land and offshore. Many have considered the Arctic landscape a barren wasteland or a flat, white nothingness.
I take these sentiments as a personal challenge to document an extremely remote and mostly unknown area of North America — for a public that otherwise might never see it. It's true that at first glance some areas may seem desolate or barren. But those same areas may be teeming with life just days later, with tens of thousands of migrating caribou, or wolves or grizzlies.
For several years now I have been working on a project with Braided River Books, with the support of Earthjustice, in hopes of making public this visual account of a stunning ecosystem. And after spending many months, year after year on the ground among caribou herds, snowy owls and grizzly bears, I realized that the only way to effectively capture the vastness was by air.
Working with experienced pilots, I spent more than 100 hours in the air over the course of two months. I remember gliding over the Western Arctic, suddenly encountering the Western Arctic caribou herd, which is 350,000 animals strong; grizzly bears wandered across the vast landscape; along the coast of the Chukchi Sea I found congregations of hundreds of beluga whales.
But by air I also saw the extent of the Prudhoe Bay oilfield and other mining operations, hidden by remoteness from the public eye. After watching the devastating effect of the oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, I am horrified by the thought of offshore oil development in the Arctic. The climate is extreme. Operations must happen in complete darkness for several months out of the year, and ice constitutes a severe hazard. And, those difficulties aside, there is no known method for cleaning up oil in icy waters.
America has a long history of conservation and set a strong precedent with the creation of Yellowstone, the first national park. In light of the ongoing oil spill in the Gulf, it is important to take a break from rampant oil development and remember that commitment to the American landscape.

I am new to HTPC's and want to start planning my setup for my house to say goodbye to cable. I have 3 displays and one will be hooked up directly to the HTPC. I want to be able to watch dvr recordings and pause/rewind live tv on all the other displays in my house. I'd also like access to Netflix/Hulu/Amazon Prime for streaming content. I have been tossing around the idea of using the Raspberry PI's running XBMC or Roku boxes with Plex. Is purchasing a 360 per room the only way to accomplish what I want until the Ceton Echo comes out? I am not sure I can do all that I want with one type of box on each tv.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Survey Records
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is responsible for the protection, distribution, and sales of survey records made by the General Land Office (GLO) and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) throughout California. Although most research traditionally involves surveyors interested in the retracement or resurvey of the rectangular survey system, the available information has also been of interest to historians, genealogists, title companies, and others. The Survey Records unit of Geographic Services protects these records and makes copies of the records available to the public.
Available Information
Check out the online maps of Principal Meridians and Baselines. This link opens a new window at the national website.
GLO/BLM Field Notes and Plats, 1850-present. Field notes contain a complete description of each mile surveyed or resurveyed, each corner monument set, and each bearing tree scribed by GLO and BLM surveyors in California. Plats (survey maps) show a graphic representation of the information contained in the field notes.
California Ranchos. Records of the various Spanish and Mexican land grants (ranchos) whose boundaries predate the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) in this state. The rancho boundary surveys are metes-and-bounds surveys tied into the township and range surveys of the PLSS. These records include the GLO and BLM resurvey field notes and plats, as well as certain private land claim dockets, disenos, and indices to land grant cases.
Mineral Surveys, 1850-present. Records (field notes and plats) of the mineral surveys approved by the General Land Office and the Bureau of Land Management. These records are only available from California Survey Records.
Contract Examiners Books, 1885-1917. In 1885, Commissioner Sparks made it mandatory for each survey to be examined prior to approval. These books contain information regarding names of the examiners, dates of examination, the character of the surveys, and actions by the GLO.
Tract books. These books note all transactions affecting public lands from the 1880's to 1970's. Copies are kept on microfiche in California and Washington D.C.
Letters from the Commissioner of the GLO to the Surveyor General-1851-1898. These letters are kept on microfiche (from NARA records) and are sorted by the date sent.
Letters from the Surveyor General of California to the Commissioner of the GLO, 1851-1879. These letters are kept on microfiche (from NARA records) and are sorted by the date sent.
Location and Hours of Operation
Our office is located at 2800 Cottage Way, Room W-1601, Sacramento, California.
Our public counter is open from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

You can obtain both digital and paper copies of these records in the following ways:
Copy Fees
Non-certified copies of records downloaded from the BLM GLO Records Homepage are free. Certified copies may be purchased online. See that webpage for details.
Records purchased directly from the California Survey Records unit are charged as follows:

Growth and a war for talent – our predictions for 2015
Manufacturing Institute CEO Dr Julie Madigan takes a look at what 2015 will hold for manufacturing.
Q. What's the current state of the manufacturing sector – have things continued improving over the past year?
A. Manufacturers are turning their attention to growth as we edge out of recession. The prospects for the Eurozone are dampening expectations however. Smaller companies, that constitute the majority of both the north west's and Manchester's manufacturing base, will need support to underpin the growth and increasingly skills and talent shortages and investment constraints are capping the potential of our manufacturing base.
Q. Have there been any significant developments from your perspective?
A. The Manufacturing Institute is seeing an increase in the number of privately funded deals happening in the locality in the manufacturing sector that bodes well. The arrival of the devolution debate is welcomed providing it can be directed towards the key constraints on business growth and not hijacked by intermediary structures.
Q. What do you think the coming year will hold?
A. We anticipate steady growth in the manufacturing sector but enthusiasm will be tempered due to the relative volatility of the global economic scene. We also foresee an increasing war for talent, increasing shortages of engineering and associate professional and technical skills in the sector and an urgent need to address the practical access to capital equipment needed to support new advanced manufacturing opportunities.
Q. What are the main initiatives that The Manufacturing Institute is working on currently?
A. The Manufacturing Institute is working on an innovative new proposal to drive a new business model and economic growth for Manchester in advanced manufacturing. Watch this space!
- Congratulations to our MSC in Manufacturing Leadership class of 2014
- Focus on Process

Young Democrats Flock to Bernie Sanders, Spurning Hillary Clinton's Polish and Poise
The movement, at least initially, was not so much the result of an organized effort by the Sanders campaign, but more of a visceral response to the candidate himself "It seems like he is at the point in his life when he is really saying what he is thinking," said Olivia Sauer, 18, a college freshman who returned to her hometown, Ames, Iowa, to caucus for Mr. Sanders. "With Hillary," she said, "sometimes you get this feeling that all of her sentences are owned by someone."pre bonded hair
Young voters' support for Mr. Sanders has created a quandary in Hillary Clinton's campaign headquarters in Brooklyn, where millennial staff members have tried to persuade their peers to back the former secretary of state, using social media platforms like Snapchat and Instagram. On Monday in Iowa, Mr. Sanders defeated Mrs. Clinton among voters ages 17 to 29 by 70 percentage points, greater than the 43-percentage-point margin by which Barack Obama won that age group in Iowa in 2008. That is true among men and women, and even Mrs. Clinton called the gap "amazing" during an appearance on CNN on Wednesday.remy hair extensions The day after Mrs. Clinton, 68, eked out a win over Mr. Sanders in Iowa, her campaign held a conference call with prominent Democratic supporters. Several of the officials, who are delegates to the party's convention, expressed concerns about the campaign's sometimes awkward attempts to reach young voters, including its reliance on baby boomer celebrities who have less resonance with the millennial generation.
Photo Hillary Clinton's campaign says she will win over young voters when they learn more about her proposals to make college affordable and combat climate change. Credit Richard Perry/The New York Times perruques cheveux naturels"I'm very close to Jamie Lee Curtis and I know she was there, but she's not young anymore," Rosalind Wyman, a prominent Democrat in Los Angeles, said of the 57-year-old actress and spokeswoman for Activia yogurt, who campaigned for Mrs. Clinton in Iowa. On the phone call, Marlon Marshall, the director of state campaigns and political engagement, tried to assure the group that the Clinton operation would be using more youthful surrogates, including Mrs. Clinton's 35-year-old daughter, Chelsea, and would continue to talk about issues like college affordability. "I do believe a narrative will continue," Mr. Marshall said. The Sanders campaign, he added, will "keep drumming that."
Mrs. Clinton's support among young voters has fallen in the eight years since she last ran for president. In the 2008 Democratic primary in New Hampshire, 60 percent of voters ages 18 to 24 supported Mr. Obama, while those ages 25 to 29 split their support between the two candidates, according to exit polls conducted by Edison Research. Some 87 percent of likely New Hampshire primary voters ages 18 to 29 said they would vote for Mr. Sanders in the state's primary on Tuesday, compared with 13 percent for Mrs. Clinton, according to a UMass-Lowell poll conducted Feb. 1 to 3. Sarah King-Mayes, 18, a freshman at the University of New Hampshire, volunteers three or four times a week for the Sanders campaign. She says she plans to register to vote on Tuesday in New Hampshire, instead of waiting to vote in Massachusetts, where her family lives. perruques cheveux She started supporting Mr. Sanders last summer after she took an online quiz, which concluded her views most matched those of the senator, particularly on issues like racial injustice and climate change. "I am excited for the political revolution," Ms. King-Mayes said. "Because I am excited for an actual democracy to be reinstated where politicians cannot be bought out by whatever company, I guess, wants their votes." Mrs. Clinton's campaign says she will win over young voters when they learn more about her proposals to make college affordable and to combat climate change. "The difference for young voters and for all voters is the ability to get something done," Robby Mook, her campaign manager said in an interview with MSNBC this week. "And what that takes is someone in Washington who can break through the gridlock." That argument won over Iris Brenner, 21, a student at Iowa State University in Ames, who supports Mrs. Clinton. "For me, it's been, 'Do I caucus for someone who is a little less exciting but who can get stuff done?'" Privately, Mrs. Clinton's supporters say that while being a youth icon has its advantages, the support of middle-aged and older voters is enough for her to capture the nomination. In the Iowa caucuses, she beat Mr. Sanders by 23 points among voters ages 45 to 64 and by 43 points among voters 65 and older, according to exit polls. "They don't have to be for me, I'm going to be for them," Mrs. Clinton told CNN on Wednesday when asked about the generation gap.
The Sanders campaign said excitement among young people had been organic, although it has clearly worked to improve the candidate's appeal on sites like Twitter, Reddit and Snapchat, and in text messages to supporters. "Young people are idealistic and they look at this country and say we can be much more," Mr. Sanders told reporters Wednesday. The discomfort, and, in some cases hostility toward Mrs. Clinton among young voters is striking. Some of them, feeling the pinch of economic hardship or the burden of college loans, suggest she is too cozy with big banks and corporate America. But polls also show they do not find her trustworthy. lace front wigs The scene at the party for Mr. Sanders on the night of the Iowa caucuses captured their feelings. As Mrs. Clinton appeared on several large projector screens, telling her supporters she was "breathing a sigh of relief" to learn of the Iowa results, some young members of the Sanders crowd booed loudly. "I am a progressive who gets things done for people," Mrs. Clinton said, setting off more heckling from the Sanders supporters. "She's a liar," the group chanted angrily. Even those showing up to the Clinton campaign's youth-oriented events do not seem to be embracing her candidacy.
Last month in Iowa, Mrs. Clinton appeared at a joint rally in Iowa City with the 23-year-old pop star Demi Lovato. Like many college students in the crowd, Nate Weger, 20, said he was supporting Mr. Sanders but was not going to say no to a free Demi Lovato concert. "Bernie just seems a lot more honest when he talks," Mr. Weger said. Similar sentiments were voiced at an Iowa event for Mrs. Clinton featuring Lena Dunham, the creator and star of the HBO show "Girls." Pete D'Alessandro, Mr. Sanders's campaign director in Iowa, said such efforts could be futile. He recalled a story from 1968, during Robert F. Kennedy's primary fight against Eugene McCarthy, when the McCarthy campaign held a barbecue that attracted hundreds of voters, leading some to believe he had deep support. But Mr. McCarthy ended up losing the contest badly.cosplay wigs "They just came for the ribs," Mr. D'Alessandro said with a chuckle. Continue reading the main story

S-Voice Dukes It Out With Siri In New Video Challenge
With the latest iteration of Apple's iOS operating system providing Siri with a much-needed boost, it was only a matter of time before someone did a video challenge pitting Siri against Samsung's S-Voice. The result is a pretty favorable comparison, showing S-Voice can hold its own well enough against the "new and improved" Siri.
Of course it's pretty clear that Siri was the inspiration for S-Voice, everything from the bubble conversation to the general UI just smacks of Siri-inspired. The only real difference here that caught our eye was how "boring" S-Voice sounds compared to Siri. We've long known that Apple built Siri to have a personality, and while it's more function over tone, we can't help but notice that Siri just sounds more "fun" to talk with.
Still, all that side aside, we're glad to see that S-Voice is not only a viable competitor, but can absolutely hold its own in a direct comparison.

Boxing Gyms (Training to Box) Locations, Interactive Maps, Phone, Website and More
All Places of Interest » Boxing Gyms (Training to Box)
A boxing gyms offer facilities and training for aspiring boxers either for fitness or competitive boxing.
From Wikipedia
A boxer's training depends largely on the point in their career at which he or she is situated. If the boxer is just a beginner, a minimal training routine might consist of learning how to hit the heavy bag, the speed bag, and the double end bag (a small bag with a cord on top and bottom connecting it to the floor and ceiling) as well as doing shadowboxing in front of a mirror, skipping rope, calisthenics and jogging every day, as well as an occasional practice bout inside the ring (sparring). Most beginning boxers will spend most of their early careers conditioning and establishing the fundamentals.

Sotheby's have revised employee incentive packages in a move that should help stabilise costs and prevent key staff from being poached by rivals.
The announcement came as part of the third quarter results, which showed a net loss of $30m, up 50 per cent on the same period last year. The figure – effectively a blip on an otherwise upward trend of profit – is partly blamed on rising salaries and senior executives exercising stock options as well as increased general and administrative costs.
Competing more fiercely for the upper end of the Modern and Contemporary art markets means spending more on marketing and entertainment, but, as the year-to-date figures show, this is paying off handsomely. Profits have more than trebled for the first nine months to $36.74m, compared to a figure of $11.29m for the same period in 2005.
Staff increases in departments selling Contemporary, Russian and Asian art account for at least some of the rise in salary costs, and there has been a heavier bill for payroll tax where executives have exercised their stock options.
This last figure should reduce in the months to come as the company enforce their new incentives policy, effectively tying valued senior staff into a five-year performance cycle before they can cash in up to 50 per cent of their stock.
Chief executive Bill Ruprecht stipulated that the twin targets of cost control and "strategic investment spending" would determine ongoing policy.
Among other areas, the latter policy focusses on auction guarantees and advance guarantees, key weapons in securing market share in the growing and highly profitable sectors of Contemporary and Modern art.

The 2011-12 season is still building momentum, but the Leafs have unfortunately lost some of theirs after a strong start. Although they have still been playing .500 hockey in the absence of No. 1 goaltender James Reimer, they have been outscored 35 to 27 in the time frame.
What's even more concerning is that many of those goals against have been weak and ill-timed.
Based on some of the questionable play exhibited by Jonas Gustavsson and relative unpredictability of Ben Scrivens, it may be in the Maple Leafs' best interest to start shopping around for other options.
Let's take a look at seven goaltenders the Leafs could pursue now who could help keep them atop the northeast division.

Shot my first bear Fall 2007 with my bow. Hunting a different area this spring '08. Was wondering if a 30-06 nosler tip is too much or would it be ok for the cape? Only other option is 12 gauge slug. Cant use my bow in this area. Also, any ideas what I could do with the cape? Cinnamon Bear from last fall is at the Taxidermist being turned into a rug. Anyone know if furbuyers would buy a bear cape? Or any other ideas? Cant wait to go Bear hunting again. Thanks and happy hunting.
