|What're you talking about? Defeat is all the Survey Corps has ever known!
|— Hange agrees with Flegel's worries
Captain Kenny Ackerman is a character from Attack On Titan and an antagonist of the series and uncle to Levi Ackerman and brother of Kuchel Ackerman.
He was an infamous serial killer that stalked people in the capital of the kingdom, Mitras. His most known way to kill was to slit the throats of his victims which earned him his infamous handle "Throat Slasher Kenny", and it was rumored that he murdered over 100 members of the Military Police Brigade. He also trained Levi when he was younger and later they parted ways. Kenny became a member of the 1st Brigade. He raised Levi as own after his sister Kuchiel who is protsutie
Many years later, after the breaking of Wall Maria he killed a prostitute, the mother of Historia Reiss after asking to Rod Reiss if her and Historia were related to him. Lod Reiss denied it and Captain Ackerman slit Historia's mother's throat. He wanted to do the same with Historia but her father Rod Reiss saved her life by telling her that her new name would be Christa Renz, and she was never allowed to talk about what happened in that farm.
Years later Captain Ackerman appears as the leader of group sent to retrieve Eren and Historia from Dimo Reeves. He tells Reeves that he personally trained Levi and then kills him in the same way he killed Historia's mother, claiming that it is his own fault for Reeves' betrayal.
After the death of Dimo Reeves he kidnaps Eren and Historia and later, along with his men, he kills Nifa, Keiji and the guy with the goggles.

What's with the pilot deviation for GP? Anyone know?
So, possibly they blew through their altitude on the departure, which would have prompted "possible pilot deviation, call ..." from NORCAL.
Cannot understand how the AK pilot could be low on fuel if it was his primary destination.
Or if the weather is good, they can plan no alternate.

What is a Sports Writer?
Also known as: Sports Author, Sports Columnist, Sports Journalist.
Table of Contents
A sports writer is someone who delivers engaging and informative news to readers of blogs, websites, newspapers, or magazines. They may work directly for a publishing company or freelance and syndicate their stories to a variety of news outlets. Some sports writers specialize in coverage of one sport, such as basketball or football, while others cover all the news on athletic competition in their region. Regardless of the type of sport covered, writers must use their creativity to excite and engage readers while writing content that is always factual, current and accurate.
What does a Sports Writer do?
A sports writer will do whatever is necessary to write exciting content for fans of the sport they cover. This may mean traveling to games, researching current events in the sport, making contacts to obtain insider information or tracking down sources. Unlike the brief information given during television news, written media must be detailed, in-depth and offer reasons for why a team won or lost. Because of this distinction, writers must dig very deep for information not found elsewhere and analyze subjective aspects of the game in order to deliver successful content.
After long hours spent collecting news and information about a competition, writers return to their home or office and combine that content to create an article. Typically, modern writers use a laptop to type out their articles. Some publications require writers to adhere to a specific format while others allow more creative freedom. Freelance writers are not held to these requirements, but must still ensure that the content is both entertaining and correct.
The sports writing career is very competitive. Sports writers often compete with others in their region to publish information first, thereby gaining the loyalty of a fan base hungry for information. In addition, many newspapers are downsizing and cutting staff, thereby creating more competition in this career field. However, with an ever-expanding media market, which now includes both commercial and personal blogs, writers have more opportunities than ever to secure a position in the industry.
Some sports writers cross over into other forms of media, such as television, radio and podcasts. They may write content for these shows or, if they show an aptitude, become talk show personalities themselves.
Find your perfect career
Would you make a good sports writer? Sokanu's free assessment reveals how compatible you are with a career across 5 dimensions!
How to become a Sports Writer
The typical sports writer must obtain the minimum of a bachelor's degree, usually in journalism. They often gain experience writing for their college newspaper or participating in internships. Many writers are former players who were not recruited for a collegiate sporting career, but developed an aptitude for writing.
In addition to a degree and practical experience, writers must be experts on football, basketball, hockey and other games. They must know not only the rules of the game, but must also understand its history and have an intense knowledge of all key players, coaches and teams. Moreover, they must have a passion for athletics and a desire to provide fans with accurate and entertaining news.
Other skills important to the field of athletic journalism include strong interpersonal and networking abilities, an aptitude for spotting news as it occurs and the ability to write creatively while captivating an audience. Writers must also possess a strong sense of self-confidence and determination in order to endure the long hours and irregular work environment inherent in this field.
What is the workplace of a Sports Writer like?
Sports writers employed by a newspaper or magazine typically work in an office. Because of the fact that writing can be done from anywhere and articles can be e-mailed in to meet deadlines, some companies allow their sports writers to telecommute. Freelance writers often have a home office used exclusively for their job.
Whether employed at a large corporation or writing news independently, one requirement of all sports writers is travel. In order to track down stories and gather accurate information, they must physically attend sporting events. Sometimes these events are held locally, but games are also held across the region or country. Sports writers may even travel internationally for coverage of the olympics, international football competitions and other events.
Due to the amount of travel and flexibility inherent in their jobs, almost all sports writers have sporadic and unreliable schedules. Games are often scheduled at night, so writers don't come to the office until the afternoon, when they typically take time to meet with publishers and editors to receive their assignments. They also spend a substantial amount of time on the phone, staying in contact with coaches, managers and athletes. Writers also work holidays and weekends, a time rife with activity in the athletic industry.

Best. Job. EVER.: Sports Journalist
I got my start as a general assignment sports reporter for the New York Daily News, but my interest in the paper's yet-to-be-burgeoning web site at the time — and the fact that I'm an Internet junkie — inspired me to write a series of memos to the editor in chief with suggestions as to how to bring it into the 21st Century.

Tay's Town Opens Its Doors
Prince buys Palace suite to host young cancer patients all season
"Welcome to Tay's Town," he said. "How y'all doin'?"
He meant the question casually, but the answer is a little complicated.
They were doing great, because they were the first children to visit "Tay's Town" - a Palace skybox that Prince, his wife Farah, corporate sponsor Meijer and the design team at Meteor Graphics renovated into perhaps the most unique, kid-friendly suite at any NBA arena.
But they also could be doing better, because they were battling cancer. Prince and the Pistons community relations department have teamed up with "Kids Kicking Cancer" - a support group for child cancer patients based out of Children's Hospital of Michigan - to host 2-3 families at every Pistons game the rest of the season.
"For me to come out and do this, it's just a no-brainer for me and my wife," Prince said following Wednesday's ribbon-cutting event. The suite still had a "new-room" smell; as recently as last week Prince was receiving updates on the installation while on the West Coast. "It's a tough situation they're in, but at the same time, if they can come out to a Pistons game, see their favorite players, have a couple hours of fun, that's the most important thing."
Several Pistons have sections of tickets they have bought and donated to underserved children in the community, but Prince is the first to have an entire suite, an idea brought to him by Dennis Sampier, the Pistons director of community relations.
"We wanted to carve out a unique space inside The Palace where kids battling the toughest of circumstances could laugh, cheer, hang out and just be kids," Sampier said. "The suite was an ideal place for it. We wanted the kids and their families to feel completely comfortable with coming to the game and to give them a truly memorable experience. The work Tayshaun and Farah have put into this have made it possible."
Prince said Sampier "let us throw our little wrinkles in there" when it came to designing "Tay's Town," which has a Nintendo Wii system, several mini-basketball hoops, a replica basketball court and Pistons beanbags. On the walls are "digital wallpapers," making one closet door look like his actual locker, and on another door, "The Block" of Reggie Miller.
"It was a lot of fun. The design team was wonderful," Farah said. "They gave me a lot of creative ideas and everything they presented I loved. Tayshaun loved it also so everything about the process was wonderful."
Farah's favorite feature was the countertop chronicling Prince's life and career. Before the game started, it was covered in popcorn that splashed out of the bowl when an errant mini-ball landed in it. "I loved the timeline that they did, starting from when he was a child to pretty much this year. And the mural on the back wall, that turned out really nice," she said. "Everything came together really nice and we really loved what they did."
Tayshaun said he has not been directly affected by cancer but Farah could not say the same. That connection to the cause was the first thing she thought of when approached with the project. "It's something close to my heart," she said. "I've had a lot of people pass away from cancer, so it was something I really wanted to help with."
Kids Kicking Cancer was founded by Rabbi Elimelech Goldberg, who lost his first child to cancer in 1983. He is a clinical assistant professor in the department of Pediatrics at Wayne State University Medical School, and also has a black belt in karate. Through Kids Kicking Cancer, Rabbi G and his instructors teach kids karate and meditation - and how the approach to those practices can help them endure the pain and stress of cancer treatments.
"Kids Kicking Cancer is a wonderful organization that encourages kids to keep their minds strong even when their bodies are weakened," Sampier said. "Rabbi G's commendable work builds more than strong minds; it builds heroes for the rest of us to be inspired by."
Collin LaLonde's three-year-old son, Luke, has acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), which accounts for 60 percent of child leukemia, according to KidsHealth.org. "Thank God it's 90 percent curable and he's going very well," said Collin, of Birmingham. "These diversions like what Tayshaun is doing tonight is what relieves some of the stress in our life right now. It's a diversion. It's something to which you can get away and relax. And the other nice thing is you meet other people, other survivors. It's just a very positive thing."
When Collin tried to get Luke to join him for the interview, he wouldn't come at first. "I'm playing," he said, transfixed on tossing the mini-basketball toward the hoop adorned with the "Tay's Town" logo on the backboard. Two of the games even had motorized rims that moved left and right, like at an arcade.
Once he joined his father, Luke began squirming, desperate to wiggle his way back to the games. When asked what his favorite part of the room was, he answered a question with a question. "How do you move that thing around, the basket?"
Then he was asked what it was like to meet Prince. "They're really fast and I couldn't catch up to them," he said. When Luke is older, God willing, he'll realize Tayshaun Prince isn't going anywhere. And neither is his Town.

Jessie."
47. do you have a lot of friends?
"No. i just moved here, you idiot. i haven't had a chance yet to make any and doubt i will."

49. Give a brief description of your average day.
"get up. eat whatever mom makes- she cooks alot more often since i disappeared for a few weeks- go to school, be bored out of my mind at school- sometimes i'll break routine, hack the school system or play a game of chess- go home, and basically waste my time. i started learning guitar just to kill the time."

"the center, whether i like it or not. every new kid is."

"again, depends. if it's raiding Magdalene's house, i'll think first. but sometimes, its funner to think later and act now. more excuses are available as to why you did something then.'
60. Have you enjoyed this interveiw so far?
" Hey, it's filling up time. I really don't care. it's not like i can't kill you if you tell anyone."

RACE INFO: Coverage of the Quicken Loans 400 at Michigan International Speedway (2.0-mile) begins at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday, June 16th. The race will be broadcast live on TNT, Sirius XM Channel 90 and MRN Radio. Matt Kenseth: "I always look forward to the races at Michigan because I like returning to the Midwest and being around all those great fans in that section of the country. Michigan is a big sweeping track with lots room to race, and since the repave, it's been a very fast race track for us. We'll see how the track has weathered over this past winter, but I feel like the racing at MIS this weekend will be similar to Kansas was earlier this year, and a very entertaining race." Crew chief Jason Ratcliff: "For Michigan you have to have the aero package, the handling, and good horsepower to have a good weekend there. Since the repave, we had a ton of grip that first race on the new surface and it turned into just wanting a fast race car. The second race at Michigan last year, we had a different tire for that race, but I found that the grip level had gone down since the June race. Handling is going to be even more of a factor now as this track has aged again. I think that the track will have less grip after this past winter, but we're not really sure how the track has changed until we get out for practice on Friday. Our thought process for this weekend is to unload close to our Kansas set-ups and use that as a baseline to work from and tweak as necessary for the differences between those two tracks." -Joe Gibbs Racing PR

After some strokes, Accuracy stat of Yul Sagittarius was enhanced by means of buffs and items. During each series of strokes, Othell Adventurer was using Final Ultimate Evasion. Each series contains 1000 strokes, which are divided into groups of 200. The number of misses is stated in the table below. Summary: As it can be seen from the results, if Accuracy stat is increased by 40, a possibility to hit the character, which is using Final Ultimate Evasion, triples. Second Part 104 lvl Yul Sagittarius attacked 104 lvl Yul Sagittarius, using basic attack. All the requirement are the same as in the first part of the experiment. The results are stated below. Summary: As it can be seen from the results, Final Ultimate Escape efficiency is similar to the one of Final Ultimate Evasion. This part of the experiment also shows that Accuracy enhancement triples hit rate.

North West Water led off the water companies' reporting season yesterday with news of a near-11 per cent uplift in dividends for the year to March.
A final payment increased from 15.4p to 17.2p, taking the year's total to 25.55p, slightly ahead of expectations.
The payment will be made in October alongside the first of a series of special dividends, worth 3.8p a share, announced last month as part of North West's plans to share pounds 400m cost savings on its massive capital investment programme with investors and customers.
North West's shares added 5p to 583p yesterday, dragging a few others in the sector up in their wake. One analyst said he would be looking for a further 12 per cent rise in the dividend to 28.55p this year.
The dividend news was one of the only surprises in results which came in largely in line with expectations. Pre-tax profits rose 5.6 per cent to pounds 284m on turnover which broke through the pounds 1bn barrier for the first time, advancing from pounds 924m to pounds 1.01bn.
Sir Desmond Pitcher, chairman, said the year had been characterised by efforts to prepare the group to deliver strong earnings growth.
Clearing up after some disappointing diversification has clearly been the focus of these moves. The latest figures included a pounds 13.5m write-down on North's construction activities, following the decision of Brian Staples, the new chief executive, to exit the business. Delays and cost overruns on a project inThailand have also led to a provision which analysts believe could be between pounds 5m and pounds 8m. Future overseas expansion will in future be pursued in association with Bechtel, the Continental construction group.

Coyle: May I have some more, please?
He's in his fifth season in the NHL, though his first season he played 37 games in the NHL and 47 in the AHL with the Houston Aeros as a 20-year-old. So alright, he played 70 games the next season for 12 goals and 30 points. The last two years he's played all 82 in the regular season, but in 2014-15 he only scored 11 goals in that full season. Last year was better, with 21 goals and 21 assists for 42 points.
Now this year, too, he's at the top of the team stats leaderboard. Granted, it's not like he's among the Blackhawks or Penguins, but it's still worth noting. He's done a good job so far this season contributing on the scoresheet. A bit of a quiet leader.
So why do I feel so underwhelmed?
He's a little bit like Granlund in this respect: There are flashes of greatness. Why doesn't that happen more often? There will be some great, athletic scoring play or a nice pass he makes. Something that makes you say "wow." That's what has me wanting more. If you can play like that sometimes, why not most of the time?
The big problem that many have acknowledged with this team is the lack of finishers. The lack of pure goal scorers. Coyle was supposed to be one of these guys, right? Maybe, maybe not. Or maybe he still could turn into something, too. Even though he's played in the NHL for a few seasons, he's still a young guy entering what should be the prime of his career. Sometimes that's forgotten as the fan base gets impatient with the lack of results from the team.
I'm encouraged by Coyle's season last year and what's he has done so far in 2016-17. I'd like to see him continue to elevate his game and continue to put points on the board.
There's another thing that digs at me with Coyle, too. I think I also like to point the finger at him indirectly for the lack of toughness on the Wild squad. This fella is a 6-3, 220-pound hockey player who could stand to capitalize on his size just a bit more. I'm not necessarily referring to fighting. Just a few more aggressive checks once in a while, or this concept of standing up for your teammates after the whistle might be up his alley.
Thank goodness there's Chris Stewart to help fill that void, I suppose.
I don't mean to be unfair to Coyle. I'm not trying to be a hater and say he's just terrible. He isn't. But again, there's just something about him that I can't put my finger on and leaves me wanting more. Maybe it's being greedy, or maybe it's just another nice thing we'd like to have in Minnesota sports.
What are your thoughts on Coyle? Am I being too hard on the leading goal scorer?

Read an Excerpt
Abingdon Theological Companion to the Lectionary
Preaching Year A
By Paul Scott Wilson

Christmas Eve/Day, Third Proper
The Lessons in Précis
At last the awaited moment when eternity has entered, temporal time is upon us, and for a moment, because of God's gift, all is right with the world.
Isaiah 9:2-7. "The people walking in darkness" (v. 2) with warrior boots and bloody garments describes earthly life which, out of its great need, is given the Prince of Peace.
Psalm 96. In response to Isaiah's announcement, the assembly sings an ancient hymn of joy for the One who comes to judge with righteousness.
Titus 2:11-14. The grace of God trains us to wait in hope through renunciation of all that keeps us from God.
Luke 2:1-14 (15-20). Mary and Joseph go to Bethlehem where she gives birth to Jesus and angels reveal to the shepherds his true identity.
Theme Sentence
Into the darkness God brings a light of great joy. God addresses our inability to live in accord with what is good, whole, and peaceful in all spheres of human life—political, physical, and spiritual. God both confronts us with the veil that keeps us from understanding how to function and sends a savior who breaks our bonds, transcends the grip of human limitation, and frees us.
A Key Theological Question
One way to address Christmas is to consider the significance of the Christmas light. Isaiah spoke of a great light come into darkness. The glory of the Lord shines around the angels in Luke. In Matthew, a star guides the Magi. In the northern hemisphere Advent spreads across the darkest days of the year. In the past, without artificial light, people organized their lives around diminishing daylight. Night closed down all activities that demanded light. People either slept or came to "know the dark," as Wendell Berry puts it. The stars illustrated their favorite stories; the darkness teemed with spirits, inviting introspection. The late poet Audre Lorde observed: "The quality of light by which we scrutinize our lives has direct bearing upon the product which we live, and upon the changes we hope to bring about through those lives." What is the quality of Christmas light?
The familiarity of these readings makes Christmas light seem like the friendly twinkle of starlight. In fact, the season's light explodes darkness the way a bolt of lightning explodes the night. Christmas light is blinding, sometimes driving people back into a familiar darkness. The eyes need time to adjust.
Indeed, Isaiah's proclamation may not seem like "good news" to people used to walking in darkness. Once in the wilderness, the Israelites began to long for the "the pots cooking meat [of Egypt]," where at least they had enough to eat (Exod 16:3). They judged hunger worse than slavery, and they preferred their bellies filled, even if their backs ached. Finding themselves in that bright light of freedom, their eyes needed time to adjust. More important, their hearts needed time to adjust.
The shepherds' reaction to the bright light of Christmas, then, tells the truth of Christmas light: "They were terrified" (Luke 2:9).
The angel's comfort comes as a command: "Don't be afraid" (v. 10). These words become an ongoing refrain throughout Jesus' ministry. Again and again, he uses them to comfort followers terrified by the bright light of Christmas: "Fear not!" "Don't be afraid!" The only thing Jesus says more frequently are the words, "Follow me." This is not a coincidence. The balance has now shifted, the days are getting longer, the light will prevail. Then and now, Jesus' voice calls us out of darkness into his light.
Christmas light exposes power. Is this what dazzles us about Christmas light? You can read status in someone's posture, the cut of their clothes, the way they meet your eye, or don't—or can't. As Luke tells it, Jesus' birth comes in the middle of a census, so that "everyone throughout the empire should be enrolled in the tax lists" (2:1). An occupying army ordered the census, and the Romans were an unwelcome presence in a land promised to God's chosen people. Summoned to assemble with their extended families and children for the census, the Jews were vulnerable, gathered like sheep ready for the slaughter. The census reasserted Roman power. In Roman eyes, every male, whether child or adult, was a potential soldier in an army of resistance. The story of the Messiah's birth reflected the contemporary political tension, a reality that played out in the Messiah's death.
Christmas light also exposes particulars: the messiness of a room, dust on surfaces, dirt on windows, things that could be hidden in darkness. Christmas light reveals the scandal of the incarnation, God taking on human flesh. This "savior," the one who is supposed to redeem Israel of the house and lineage of David, does not arrive in Davidic splendor. He is born rather in a stable, probably more of a barnyard than the sanitized crèches we pull out every Christmas. The birthplace of the Christ reeked of ordinary life, and his visitors probably had to cover their noses. Salvation from a pigsty! No wonder everyone was asking Jesus: "Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for someone else?" (Luke 7:19). Christmas light exposes particulars —and the incarnation itself is a scandal of particularity.
In addition, Christmas light exposes people. Joseph's faithfulness shines forth, for he stayed with a fiancée who was already pregnant. Mary steps into the light as someone who trusted in an angel's promise. Despite their fears, the shepherds courageously come to worship a Messiah who shows up in the most unlikely of places and under the most inauspicious circumstances.
Finally, Christmas light exposes who God really is. Psalm 96 counts as one of the "royal psalms," fueling expectations of a king who would come in regal robes with full military accompaniment in order to establish justice among the peoples and peace between the nations.
What Christmas brings is a baby, not a king; who shows up in a manger, not a palace; who's wearing rags, not royal robes. Christmas light exposes a God who wants the full range of human experience from cradle to grave, not only the grown-up version. God takes on the full palette of human emotions, including the primary emotional colors of anger, fear, and despair. God meets us face-to-face and matches us experience-for-experience. The psalmist marvels that God comes to "judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with his truth" (Ps 96:13, NRSV). Divine truth is present here on Earth; God knows the human condition.
Thanks be to God!
A Pastoral Need
On Christmas, the preacher has to consider both the astonishing good news of this time and the state of the assembly. With all of the clutter of this season people may not be aware that the hope for which we long comes from outside of us. The sanctuary may be full of excited and impatient children, parents juggling competing needs, relatives who do or do not like to be together, grandparents with eyes only for their grandchildren or who cannot hear what the preacher says, street people in need of shelter, folks without family, those in mourning, and some who have partied in excess. To preach well in this situation is to gather all of those disparate attentions into the manger with the child so that light of the savior shines on everyone. This baby makes everyone part of one family.
The birth of Jesus—the light of the world, Immanu-el, God-with-us—brings us together for good reason. With all of our differences and difficulties, we are in great need of hearing that none of us is alone in this universe and that God desires us to know the wonders of the incarnation. Most of the time we struggle with problems and answers that make plain the endless further difficulties we don't want to look at. Arriving even at a point where we can acknowledge together the needs in our midst, we are confronted with our helplessness in truly solving them.
So it is that at Christmas we receive joy, practice it, sing and breathe together. People speak of the "Christmas spirit" because it is a palpable experience: one time during the year when we expect blessings and we trust that love is real and eternal and that somehow we do all belong. It is an in-gathering in the best sense, and the sermon needs not only to say as much but also to embody it.
Ethical Implications
About the birth, two ethical matters stand out. First, as the stories tell us, the shepherds go to see the Christ promised by the angels, but instead of a venue befitting a savior, they find a baby born to a couple too poor and unconnected to have afforded a proper room. Christians have mined this story for centuries for the meaning in Mary's youth, Joseph's lineage in the house of David, their long journey to be counted in the census, their poverty and the treacherous situation of a pregnant, unwed teenager. Of all these matters, the humble quality of their experience is of overriding significance.
First, the inelegant circumstances of Jesus' birth find much in common with those who sought him out: shepherds whose work is among the lowliest and loneliest. The story directly aims the location of the holy in that which is not supposed to be anything special: a baby in a hay trough is the Alpha and Omega, the lamb who sits on the throne at the end of time. The homeless and hungry, powerless and voiceless among us are of utmost concern to the Most High God. To them is born this vision.
Second, however small the suggestions of their presence, this story makes clear that animals were present at the miracle as well. The child is laid in the bin that holds food for livestock and angels come to shepherds tending flocks. The birth is surrounded by all of creation—not only human beings but also the creatures who live and breathe beside us and by whose flesh and milk, wool and skins, we are given life. Christ Jesus is born in the place where God's creatures all rest and eat. Christmas, in other words, may be one of the best times for the sermon to speak of God's commitment to the salvation of all earth's inhabitants.
Gospel Implications
If the incarnation—God become human—is about anything, it establishes the deep connections between all things. Angels speak to earthlings, shepherds meet with a descendant of King David and kneel before a woman who has just given birth, animals give up their meal place, and heaven and earth belong together. This is a bold cry against the notion that heaven and earth shall never meet, that the body has no relation to the soul, that creation itself is irrelevant to God. It is no use to try putting thoughts into the heads of sheep, but there is on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day a strong impulse toward understanding that the incarnation pulls not only heaven and earth but also all of earth together in adoration of the Savior.
The angel's words—"Don't be afraid! Look! I bring good news to you—wonderful, joyous news for all people" (Luke 2:10)—seem to be speaking of the Israelite people. But in the ensuing decades after Jesus' death and resurrection, our ancestors understood that the meaning of God-with-us includes the Gentiles as well as the Israelites. The light that shined in the darkness shines now with the same intensity—enlarged, expansive, encompassing—revealing that the good news has come for all of God's beloved creatures. This is the start of God's new creation.CHAPTER 2
First Sunday After Christmas Day
The Lessons in Précis
Finally having arrived in the Christmas season itself, and only a few days after singing "Joy to the World," we encounter the slaughter of the Holy Innocents, with Joseph and his little family fleeing for their lives.
Isaiah 63:7-9. God is present with the people of Israel and calls, protects, and saves them.
Psalm 148. All creation—human, animal, vegetable, and earth itself—sings praise to the Lord whose "majesty is over earth and heaven" (v. 13).
Hebrews 2:10-18. The "children" share flesh and blood with each other and also with Jesus Christ who became human, overcame death and continues to help those in need.
Matthew 2:13-23. An angel in a dream warns Joseph and Mary to flee from the Massacre of the Innocents, and another dream warns them, on their return from Egypt, to go to Nazareth.
Theme Sentence
In the midst of the pain and injustice of this world, God calls, protects, and saves. The Nativity of Our Lord does not eliminate the tyranny and bloodshed of those who deal falsely for the sake of their own power. Lies and testing have not come to their end. But the crucified and risen Christ fulfilled the prophets' announcements that God uplifts those in need.
A Key Theological Question
This first Sunday after Christmas is a ripe time for giving praise. Though suffering and evil are not yet eliminated, in Jesus Christ their end is in sight. However, praise in the midst of trouble can be a difficult issue.
For medieval monasteries, the Great Silence began as the final office of the day ended. No one spoke, as the monks filed out of the chancel, up the night stairs, and into their dormitories. With the first office of the next day, they returned to the chancel, breaking the night's silence with a versicle from Psalm 51:15: "Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will proclaim your praise." They believed that if God opened their lips each morning, praise would pour forth. The last word spoken each night was "Amen"; the first words of the morning were words of praise.
A lot of things open my lips each morning: a call for coffee, loud worries about the weather, and always an awareness of "The List"—things left undone from the day before and tasks for the new day. I need to rediscover a monastic rhythm of silence and praise. These Christmas readings return us to our truest nature. We humans are hard-wired for praise.
The prophet Isaiah bursts out with stories of "the Lord's faithful acts" (63:7). The psalmist gives glory for a creation that includes "sea monsters" and "ocean depths," "fire and hail, snow and smoke," "mountains," and "every single hill" (148:7-9). The detail dazzles and delights: it's full-bodied, full-throated, full-speed-ahead praise. No created thing remains silent.
Yet in the midst of a symphony of praise, the readings register an undercurrent of danger. Christmas light casts shadows, and they are worth noticing. Even as he cheers, Isaiah hints at trouble between God and God's people. In the prophet's audience were people who felt the pain of God's absence; they wondered if God still cared about them. Isaiah's boast sounds so bold—"Truly they are my people ..." (63:8). But only someone full of doubt would put the matter like that. Hebrews proclaims God's faithfulness, but the author protests too much. Both texts are written to people who fear God has forgotten them.
Matthew's Gospel delivers the starkest challenge to praise. Immediately after Jesus' birth, Joseph receives an angel's command to return to Egypt. This is almost as bad as being told his fiancée is pregnant. The Hebrew people languished in bondage in Egypt; the country represented "the house of slavery" (Deut 5:6). Even if Hosea prophesied of a Messiah who would rise up "out of Egypt" (11:1), the place was no vacation destination for Jews. Egypt neither welcomed nor liked them. The angel's command meant exile in a strange and inhospitable country.
But exile also spared the young family from Herod's cruelty. In an effort to eradicate political resistance, he ordered all firstborn male infants under two years to be executed. Matthew makes sure we remember the carnage, recalling Jeremiah's prophesy about "Rachel weeping for her children" (Matt 2:18).
The liturgical calendar will not let us forget. Christians celebrate the birth of the Christ in a week awash in blood. December 28 commemorates the slaughter of the "Holy Innocents," as they came to be known. Immediately after the birth of Jesus, December 26 marks the stoning of the first Christian martyr, Stephen. December 29 remembers Thomas Becket, the twelfth century archbishop of Canterbury who spoke truth to power and was slain by the king's men. The readings and the liturgical calendar hold together both praise and lament. How can this be "good news?"
So close after Christmas, the commemorations foreshadow crucifixion. They caution against domesticating Christmas and making the Christ over in our own images. Isaiah gets God's agenda exactly right: "My plans aren't your plans, nor are your ways my ways" (55:8). So what are God's plans? What are God's ways?
God's ways embrace both praise and lament, Christmas and the cross. One story interprets the other. The Christmas message plays against the background of cross and resurrection. If the Christmas message stood alone, it would be sweet but trivial because the message would not touch the reality of human suffering. Incarnation is the divine commitment to take on the full range of human experience, not just the good parts. The suffering of dying? God through Christ has "been there, done that," experiencing the slow agony of death by crucifixion. The agony of watching one's own child die? God through the Father has been there, anguishing over the death of his son. Our suffering has already registered on God's body. God is with us in the midst of our anguish. Because of this, Paul writes to the Romans: "I'm convinced that nothing can separate us from God's love in Christ Jesus our Lord: not death or life, not angels or rulers, not present things or future things, not powers or height or depth, or any other thing that is created" (8:38-39). Because of Jesus, God-made-human, incarnation is the glue holding together both suffering and praise.

KOBELCO's SK350 is well-equipped to provide operators with superior power and efficiency, while meeting the latest Tier IV Final emissions standards. The SK350 is set to deliver significant operational cost savings thanks to better fuel economy, greater efficiency and reduced service intervals.
KOBELCO's robust 82,200 lb. SK350 is powered by a 270 hp. Tier IV Final HINO engine, allowing it to tackle a wide-range of heavy-duty applications with ease, while remaining highly fuel efficient. This model incorporates both Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and self-cleaning Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) systems to provide the lowest possible operation costs. This dual system minimizes Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) consumption when compared to SCR only systems.
KOBELCO's SK350 showcases the company's proprietary intelligent control system, ensuring smooth engagement and disengagement across all machine functions. Heavy lift mode can be enabled when extra lift capacity is needed, while power boost gives operators 10% more power for additional digging capability with no time limit. The SK350 also comes standard with KOBELCO's exclusive independent travel feature. This popular function allows the excavator to travel and lift simultaneously without experiencing a loss of power or speed, making it both versatile and safe to operate across a wide variety of applications. In many instances, this KOBELCO exclusive feature eliminates the need of contractors to supplement their fleet with other types of carriers.
The machine is ergonomically designed with a spacious, climate-controlled cab with plenty of leg room and operating space. Wide access doors provide ease of entry and exit, while windows on all sides offer excellent visibility, ensuring safe operation, particularly in the rear, thanks to KOBLECO's low profile hood design. A rear view camera with an LCD monitor is installed as standard equipment for additional safety. A 7-way adjustable suspension seat, AM/FM radio, large cup holder and ample storage tray for personal belongings give operators a pleasant work environment on even the toughest of work days. Additionally, operators can look forward to ease of use in the SK350 with centralized controls, easy-to-read instrumentation and onboard self-diagnostics, including warning screens and audible alarms which alert the operator to the status of critical equipment functions.
Maintenance is easy on the SK350, and now even more cost effective. Operators can expect extended service intervals by as much as 100% or more when it comes to engine oil, hydraulic oil, filter changes and greasing. When periodic maintenance is required, the SK350 can be worked on at ground level with easy access to all key service points.
