Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Sep 17, 2013 - Fiction - 208 pages
Marie's job as a guard at the National Gallery in London offers her the life she always wanted, one of invisibility and quiet contemplation. But amid the hushed corridors of the Gallery surge currents of history and violence, paintings whose power belies their own fragility. There also lingers the legacy of her great-grandfather Ted, the museum guard who slipped and fell moments before reaching the suffragette Mary Richardson as she took a blade to one of the gallery's masterpieces on the eve of the First World War.
After nine years there, Marie begins to feel the tug of restlessness. A decisive change comes in the form of a winter trip to Paris, where, with the arrival of an uninvited guest and an unexpected encounter, her carefully contained world is torn open.
Asunder is a rich, resonant novel of beguiling depths and beautiful strangeness, exploring the delicate balance between creation and destruction, control and surrender.

Street View | Trusted
An Overview of Google's New Program for Publishing Photospheres
You may want to bookmark this page as a resource for up to date information about the Street View | Trusted program.
As of 3 September 2015 the Google Business View program has been officially closed.
The new Street View | Trusted program takes its place for photographers publishing photosphere imagery on Google products.
Whereas the Google Business View program was based on a contractual agreement between Google and Trusted Independent Photographers the Street View | Trusted program provides access to a special publishing tool, the Pano Editor; access to a support forum monitored by Google staff; and access to Google branded badging for qualifying photographers.
There has also been mention of some lead generation benefits for photographers.
Official Documents
Below are the official documents relating to the Street View | Trusted program.

Contract for Photographic Services
Postcard for Certified SVT Photographers
SVT Certified Photographers Forum
I've set up a forum for certified SVT photographers to share info and enjoy having a community to learn from.
SVT Certified Photographers Forum Access Request
Access for All
One of the most important changes in the transition from Google Business View and Street View | Trusted is the update of the Street View App that works with Android and iOS smartphones.
The Street View App allows anyone with a smartphone to create photospheres and publish them to Google maps.
The New Cameras
The Street View App also connects with some new cameras that have been specially developed to create photospheres that can be published to Google products through the Street View App.
The Iris360 creates 32 Mp photospheres that would meet the requirements for the minimum number of published photospheres for access to the Street View | Trusted program but the Theta S does not.
Using a DSLR
Additionally a photosphere created with a DSLR camera and stitched together with third party software can be published to a Google business listing using the below app and selecting 'Add a Photo' on the business or place's Google+ page or Maps listing.
When using a DLSR you can process the images with Lightroom, stitch them together using PTGui or other specialist panorama stitching software, and retouch them to correct any artifacts of the stitching process and/or address privacy issues by cloning or blurring.
Google is encouraging the use of Drive instead of Picasa, they're both about equally bad as far I'm concerned - try figuring out how many files are in a Drive Album, it can be done but you have to be creative.
The Benefits of Being a Street View | Trusted Photographer
Only photographers who have been accepted to the Street View | Trusted program have access to the Street View Editor which can be used to create linked tours. (it would appear that access to the Editor is now being given before full cert', updates to follow)
These linked tours have the same user interface as Street View and the tours will be linked to Street View where possible.
The Street View Editor also has an option specifically for hotels known as the 'Hotel Mode' which is accessed by selecting 'Hotel Mode' in the Street View Editor's 'View Selection' window.
Photosphere imagery published through the Street View Editor will be shown on Google Search, Google Knowledge Cards, Google Maps and Google+ pages in a special 'See Inside' linked image window.
Photosphere imagery published through the Street View App will not be displayed this way.
Photosphere imagery can be published using the Street View Editor either by pre-stitching the photospheres with third party software or by uploading image files from an approved list of DSLRs, lenses, and rotators.
Those image files will then be stitched by Google into photospheres for publication through the Pano Editor.
Becoming a Street View | Trusted Photographer
Photographers who were certified Google Trusted Photographers on 3 September 2015 were automatically enrolled in the Street View | Trusted program.
Those photographers must upload at at least 5 photospheres of at least 32Mp resolution to at least 10 businesses within 150 days to retain enrollment privileges. Those photospheres must meet additional requirements found in the official documents and remain published on Google Maps to qualify for certification.
Photographers who wish enter the program from 3 September 2015 must publish the same number of photospheres by the same requirements within a 150 day period.
Terms and Conditions
Google is not a party to any contractual agreements with the photographer or the businesses photographed except for as stipulated by Google's Terms of Service for all contributions to Google products.
The photographer is responsible for gathering and archiving the appropriate permissions and releases for people and property visible in the imagery.
As per Google's Terms of Service the copyright belongs to the creator of the imagery unless the creator transfers the copyright to their client.
Additionally any imagery uploaded to Google's products are subject to the clause in the Terms of Service that grants worldwide limited usage rights to Google to display the imagery across it's range of products.
Photographers who have been part of the Google Business View program have uninterrupted (service hiccups aside) access to the Street View Editor for uploading photosphere tours to Street View and may continue to offer the same service that they were offering in the Google Business View program but with fewer restrictions and CRM requirements.
The minimum shoot requirement has changed from one shoot per calendar month to 10 shoots in 150 days, which represents a doubling, but with the relaxed restrictions, should not prove too onerous.
The addition of the new cameras, especially the Iris 360, adds a new way of quickly creating Street View imagery that should help increase the rate of coverage.
Over the last three years the awareness of Street View imagery inside businesses had grown exponentially.
Some customers have discovered that not all Street View imagery is created equally.
Experienced photographers are able to use their specialist knowledge of photographic processes to create a higher standard of photosphere by ignoring Google's guidelines recommending automatic settings and using third party software to process the photographs.
The new Street View | Trusted program provides experienced photographers with the necessary tools to create professional quality virtual tours using the Street View Editor while also allowing all Google product users to contribute their own photospheres to Google products using their smartphone or affordable specialist camera.
Professional photographers creating and uploading photospheres for business clients should prepare and employ a clearly written contract of service stipulating the photographer's terms and conditions.
Those terms and conditions should include the transfer of worldwide unlimited usage rights to the client for a fee and include a clause that declares that no usage rights have been granted until all fees are paid in full.
It should not be necessary for the photographer to transfer copyright to the client as worldwide unlimited usage rights cover the client's need for publication and the photographer should retain the right to use the images in their own portfolio for promoting their business.
Photographers should also be aware of the laws pertaining to privacy and property rights in the country or countries they intend to conduct business in.
In conclusion
The changeover from Google Business View to Street View | Trusted has not been well explained by overly brief resource materials but with the exception of a short hiccup in service there has been no interruption or denial of service.
Photographers who may have had ongoing contracts in place before the change of programs can continue to offer the same service, in the same way.
Photographers who may be interested in joining the program now have more options of equipment to choose from.
And photographers who might wish to publish photospheres but are not interested in joining the Street View | Trusted program also have more options available to them.
Additional resources
Recently published info from the Street View | Trusted team
Dear Photographers,
Please check out some of the new terminology you'll be seeing throughout this program:
Photo sphere: Imagery stitched into a 360 degree panorama
Street View editor: This is a desktop tool that can be used to:
import photo spheres,
import individual images to create photo spheres,
connect photo spheres into constellations,
blur faces and other sensitive details in your imagery, and
publish photo spheres to Google Maps listings.
Please find more information on the Street View editor here.
Imagery creator: Either the photographer or agency
Client shoot: A photo shoot sold to a customer
Import imagery: To import imagery folders from either Google Drive or Google Photos to the Street View editor. Please find more information on importing imagery here.
Modify imagery: To modify imported imagery in the Street View editor. Please find more information on modifying imagery here.
Moderation: This refers to Google's quality control review process
Hope this helps!
The Street View | Trusted Team
I'm not a Google employee and my answers are not to be considered official Google policy but just the opinion of a veteran Google Trusted Photographer. I am careful, however, in researching my answers and to the best of my ability I will confine my answers to things that I feel I know for certain, at the time of writing at least.
Do we need to shoot POIs for the SVT program?
No, POI (point of interest 'flat', 'still', or 'standard') photos are not required in SVT. The ability to upload POIs through the Street View Editor remains in place but the requirement has been dropped in the new program.
Do reshoots count towards certification?
MC Answer copied and pasted - 'A re-shoot of a business you have shot previously will not be counted towards your certification unless there has been significant time passed between shoots or an increase in photosphere count.'
Not very helpful or clear but I would say you should look to shoot at least 10 different businesses in the 150 day cycle.
If/when we lose trusted status (presumably we'll all want to retire at some point!), will our clients lose their See Inside?
Google makes no guarantees that its products won't change in the future and you should be careful to make that clear to your clients, but no, if you are no longer certified that will not automatically result in the tours / single photospheres coming down.
Should I level the camera on a sloped ground?
Yes, keep the camera level but adjust the tripod so the legs remain in the nodal hole.
The tripod should also be level at the plate for attaching the ball head or leveler as this will make the tripod more stable.
This blog isn't set up for comments but is considered to be a work in progress so if you have any questions or comments please email me - firstname.lastname@example.com

Jazz Life
I've always loved jazz. I'm sure it started with my obsession with the Art Deco era and Big Band music. But the swing music of the Big Band Era was still pretty strict, from a jazz point of view. The arrangements were complicated, so everyone pretty much stuck to the music on the page, with an improvised solo thrown in here and there.
Improvisation is the heart of jazz.
Improvisation is what happens when a musician stops looking at the music on the page and starts playing with her or his heart. It's when, if you are a spiritual person, you let go of your ego and open your mind to the endless creativity of God. When the flow is on, it's a supremely worshipful and transcendent experience.
Improv is what makes us curious and creative, whether we're playing jazz or inventing something to protect us from being eaten by wild animals. Improv reminds us we are One with God in profoundly meaningful and creative ways. Improv isn't easy. This underlying jazz concept is difficult because it requires us to get off the written page. It requires a certain amount of trust in Universal Creative Consciousness.
We have to get off the written page.
Jazz takes a pioneering spirit and a willingness to accept that what you're doing is honest, truthful and legitimate, even when everyone else is telling you to keep playing the notes that are on the page. Playing jazz requires a leap of faith—that your fingers or voice or breath will be guided by something beyond human logic. It's a divine experience.
Now, to many people, jazz often sounds "wrong," because jazz musicians like Miles Davis and Herbie Hancock take liberties with the sorts of notes we're used to hearing. They push us to listen more deeply; to join them in this divine dance.
Unfortunately, for all our human creativity, many of us often get stuck. We're afraid to improvise. We're afraid to stray from the notes on the page. We're afraid to play a "wrong" chord or make a mistake. We're afraid of failure.
But we shouldn't be afraid because jazz is also a collaborative effort. It only works—and works well, when we're jamming with other people. Even when we think we've made a mistake, there's someone there to play a few new notes to make it "right." It's what Miles Davis said: "There are no mistakes, only opportunities."
That's what church is for. It's not to listen to dogma or to be told what to think. For me, church is about playing spiritual music with everyone in the congregation—exchanging ideas like riffs in a jazz tune; exploring new melodies, new ways to think about things, new ways to serve. Church is about being new expressions of God's love in the world. Church is about jazz.
Now, let's jazz up a little scripture, too.
Genesis 3:1-10 (CEB)
The snake was the most intelligent of all the wild animals that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say that you shouldn't eat from any tree in the garden?" The woman said to the snake, "We may eat the fruit of the garden's trees but not the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden. God said, 'Don't eat from it, and don't touch it, or you will die."
The snake said to the woman, "You won't die! God knows that on the day you eat from it, you will see clearly and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." The woman saw that the tree was beautiful with delicious food and that the tree would provide wisdom, so she took some of its fruit and ate it, and also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. Then they both saw clearly and knew that they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together and made garments for themselves.
During that day's cool evening breeze, they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden; and the man and his wife hid themselves from the Lord God in the middle of the garden's trees. The Lord God called to the man and said to him, "Where are you?" The man replied, "I heard your sound in the garden; I was afraid because I was naked, and I hid myself."
To me, this passage of scripture implies that we are not only riffing on spiritual ideas with each other, we are also jamming with God. Whether we're in the garden or not, we are walking hand in hand with God.
We might not think of the Adam and Eve story this way because we all learn the story of "The Fall" as children. Even if we're not religious, we probably know this story. So we know what happens after the section of scripture above. When God finds Adam and Eve hiding in the garden, God kicks them out.
Like many of you, I was always taught that Adam and Eve made this horrible mistake (committed a sin to use the old language) and were kicked out of the garden as punishment. This idea eventually became the standard Christian dogma: We are all sinners paying for Adam and Eve's original mistake. They failed God's test. They ate from the one tree God said not to touch, and fell from God's grace, being kicked out of the garden, and now, as a consequence, we are all mortal sinners.
This interpretation means that being human is a mistake. This glorious life, which God has previously pronounced good, is all a horrible mistake! Reading Adam and Eve's journey from the garden as a mistake creates an innate sense of worthlessness in us (and incidentally, creates an institution—the church—that offers the only cure for humankind's shared disease).
But, because scripture is like a jazz tune, there are many, many other ways to think about what this story means. In fact, the original Jewish people who wrote these stories intended for them to be interpreted in many different ways. It was a practice Jesus participated in called midrash. The Bible we have in our hands today is perhaps the ultimate jazz composition—written by many people, rewritten by many more, edited, redacted, vamped and improvised upon—it's a true work of human collaboration, and for that reason alone it's worth our attention.
But, in this country at least, it's also become somewhat taboo to play anything other than the notes written on the page—the literal notes. So when we look at the Adam and Eve story, we're told it's about original sin and humanity's fall from God's grace. Period. End of song.
Well, like his rabbinical counterparts, Jesus dares us to get off the written page. He took scripture and riffed on it all the time, and he teaches us how to do the same thing. Jesus said, "You have heard it said, but I say…" Jesus invites us into this same sort of relationship with scripture. Jesus was a jazzer!
So, you have heard it said Adam and Eve made a huge mistake, and consequently, all humans are paying the price for that one mistake. But I ask, did Adam and Eve make a mistake, or did they make the most of a God-given opportunity?
Just think about this for a moment: Perhaps the entire garden story is a metaphor about the beauty of being human, not how worthless we are. Perhaps eating from the tree affords God—by incarnating as human beings, the opportunity to become fully human—to live a life full of wonder and surprise, joy and heartbreak, of quenching our curiosity, of considering what it means to be good or evil, of constantly and tirelessly seeking wisdom. Because without wisdom, without knowledge of good and evil, without life and even without death, then tell me: exactly what is it that makes us human?
Eating from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil isn't a mistake. It's an opportunity. An opportunity to experience being fully human. This human life might not be as carefree was life in the garden. But it's still a gift. And as beings who are made from the very molecules of God, it's an opportunity for God to experience the gift of being human.
How can that possibly be a mistake?
Meditation: Help me recognize the incredible worth of all human beings, as I begin to understand this life as a precious gift, not a mistake.

Monday Meditation
I close my eyes and
a tunnel of light envelops me.
The light is warm and tender, ailment
alive with awareness.
My mind is opened
to a larger reality.
I float through the tunnel,
lifted high
into a state of
I am suddenly aware
of all beings,
all places,
and all times
right here and now,
yet also beyond, me.
My senses explode.
I smell the ocean
and the Redwood forests;
I feel the rush of the wind
against my face
as I soar high above
snow-capped mountains,
I dive into a lake and
close my eyes as
I crash through
its idyllic, glassy surface.
My body tingles
with the bracing snap
of winter's chill on my skin.
I am awakened.
When I open my eyes
I see pinpoints of light
surrounding me.
Stars, winking at me,
as if they know my secret.
I float through the universe
and see it
pouring out from my fingertips
and I am suddenly—
And everything.
I am no longer physical,
yet I feel.
I feel love and hate;
hope and despair;
hunger and fulfillment.
All these things are,
and I realize they are
simply things.
As I consider this,
I feel myself being pulled back.
The stars contract,
slowly at first,
then ever more rapidly,
and I see the light twist and distort,
a kaleidoscope of galaxies
as my senses
are once again
filled with
the smells of life,
a glorious illusion,
a dream realized,
but whose?
I wonder if
I have been dreaming,
or if I am,
in fact,
the dream.

Prayers for Disaster Relief
I'd like to take a moment today to offer a prayer for all the people who have been affected by natural disasters recently: People in Japan, thumb Ecuador, Bangladesh, Oklahoma, and Houston, in particular our Houston friends Pastor Bruce, Donna and Zach Frogge. Please forgive me if I have left a place off this list and perhaps add names of countries, cities and people in the comments section.
Graceful and comforting God,
bring hope and peace
to the thousands of people
around the world
who have lost loved ones.
Let everyone displaced
by these disasters
find shelter,
and a nurturing touch
while their homes,
and lives
are rebuilt.
Touch our hearts
and inspire us
to come together
in support of one another—
and spiritually.
Make those who still have much,
generous and willing
to provide aid to those
who have lost everything.
Protect all the aid workers
as they work in dangerous conditions
to rescue people and animals.
Help our governments and leaders
be considerate of the needs of their people
as homes, schools,
and infrastructure are rebuilt.
Bring a sense of calm and peace
to all who are suffering.
Help them see your light
in what so often seems
permanent darkness.
Create safe havens
as people struggle,
to begin again.
And may this new beginning,
as all new beginnings,
be filled with your Holy grace,
compassion, and mercy.
In your many names we pray.

Dearest and most Holy God, sovaldi
it is almost impossible
for us to describe
our deep and abiding
love for you.
Our hearts burst
when we think about you.
When we are faithfully
tuned into your presence, buy viagra
we act like schoolchildren
whose first crush
fills every waking thought
and every lucid dream.
You make us giddy, case sweet God.
[pause and feel God vibrating throughout your being]
every moment,
daydreaming of you,
yet so often never really
touching you,
never acutely aware of your nearness.
We often grow frustrated
because we yearn for your presence,
and fail to realize
you are already right here with us,
as near as our own breath.
We forget that you
constantly smile at us
and through us,
from within our hearts
and the glistening eyes of others.
If we could only remember
to pause from our busy lives
and allow your smile
to break through the
walls we build around ourselves;
if we could only remember
to smile your sweet smile
at everyone we meet,
then we would feel you
pulsing through us,
and see you
smiling back at us
from everyone,
[pause and feel God vibrating throughout your being]
Awaken us to
the restoring presence of your love.
Resurrect our faith
in our leaders,
our governments,
our economic
and social systems.
Resurrect our faith in humanity, Lord,
as we do our best
to simply retain hope
in a world seemingly gone
and utterly
Remind us that
the Easter season
is a time for all people
to reflect deeply on you
as a powerful force of love
in our lives
and in our world.
We are the embodiment of
your spirit,
created perfectly
as sojourners
in this physical world.
We do our best
to think ourselves
separate from you,
but through the resurrection
of Jesus the Christ,
we see and are assured that
you never consider yourself
separate from us.
[pause and feel God vibrating throughout your being]
Put our hearts at ease
and our minds at rest,
God in whom we find
the ultimate respite.
Give us unwavering faith
that every roadblock in life,
every mountain we must climb,
every death and every birth,
are all parts of our journey
from you,
through you,
and ultimately,
back to you.
For we all return
from whence we came:
to your eternally loving,
unconditionally accepting embrace.
We pray in the name of the One
who show us the way
back to your loving arms,
Jesus the Christ.

Resurrecting Christianity: Overcoming Augustinian Myth
As we continue our Easter journey, I think it's important for us to take a look at one of the most important figures in Christian history: Augustine of Hippo, or as I like to call him, the guy that ruined Christianity for 1500 years.
Augustine's ideas have nothing to do with Jesus Christ, yet they have formed the basis for almost all Christian thinking since the late 4th Century. Augustine's hypothesis is that humans are worthless pieces of garbage. Augustine made the doctrine of Original Sin foundational to his theology (what we think about the nature of God) and Christology (what we think about the nature of Jesus). The doctrine existed before Augustine—the first mention is probably by Irenaeus in the 2nd Century, but nobody had ever taken it to such lengths as Augustine.
His thinking is along the lines of the following: Adam committed a horrible crime against God by eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, for which humans were kicked out of the Garden of Eden. We can never, ever redeem ourselves for that sinful transgression—only God can, and God did, in fact, redeem us and forgive us for original sin by incarnating as Jesus Christ, then committing suicide on the cross.
Okay, I'm paraphrasing at the end there. Augustine didn't see it as suicide (although if God and Jesus are one it can be nothing else) as much as he understood Jesus' blood sacrifice as atonement for original sin. Augustine comes up with these ideas by completely misreading the Bible, in particular, Paul (Romans 5:12–21 and 1 Corinthians 15:22). He also misunderstands the First Testament idea of ancestral fault, which is that the sins of the father are transmitted to the son—something Jesus clearly states is incorrect (John 9:1-3)
Some of you might be thinking, "Well, Augustine was just taking what Paul wrote to its natural conclusion." This is not exactly true because Paul was writing in the symbolic language of a 1st Century Jew. Augustine read Paul as a 4th Century Gentile—not only that, but Augustine read Paul as a 4th Century gentile, who was guilt-ridden over the debauched life he had led, and so presumed that because he was a jerk, then naturally, all humans must be jerks. Augustine then speculated that because it took a relationship with Christ to "save" him from himself, then it must take a relationship with Christ to "save" all humans. It's the worst case of imprinting ever foisted upon human beings, and it continues to destroy our self-worth—and our understanding of Christianity, to this day.
The idea of original sin is a complete misunderstanding of the Garden of Eden story. It's not about disobeying God; it's about God taking the opportunity to incarnate into the flesh—becoming human, and experience physical reality. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil is a symbolic warning against dualistic thinking, which is human nature. We see hot and cold, darkness and light, good and evil. In truth these are not opposites, they are all part and parcel of the same thing. There is only heat—there is no such thing as cold, only the absence of heat. The darkness is only the absence of light, and evil is only the absence of good. These things are not equal and opposing forces—that's dualistic thinking, and that's what the tree in the Garden represents. As soon as Adam and Eve have an awareness of duality, their perfect Oneness with God is over. They have left the garden of their own volition, they have not been banished.
Leaving the garden isn't punishment—it's the next stage in God's ongoing journey of creative experimentation. Leaving the garden is an ancient Jewish allegory for the creation of humankind and the beginning of the world as we know it. It's got nothing to do with punishment—that's a Gentile perversion of a symbolic language they didn't understand.
So if we haven't sinned, we don't need to be redeemed. The whole idea of Jesus "dying for the sins of humankind" falls apart when we stop believing the lies Augustine and his ilk (Luther, Calvin, et al.) have perpetrated on Christian thinking for the past 1500 years.
Are humans perfect? Far from it. But it's not Adam and Eve's fault, not by a longshot, and Jesus did not die in order to make us somehow alright in the eyes of God. Jesus died because he was a political pawn in a game that involved much more than his ministry. That his death would spawn an entirely new religion was probably not Jesus' plan, since in the Bible he is never represented as anything other than a loyal and devoted Jew. It's also important to consider that the religion that developed after his death took hold not in Jesus' Jewish world, but in the Gentile world whose values Jesus preached against. It's no wonder Jesus' message became so twisted and misunderstood.
It is more in line with Jesus' teaching and the example of his life to understand that our relationship with God is not and can never be broken. The problem lies entirely in our thinking it is broken, and that it cannot be repaired. Ye of little faith (Matthew 8:26). Sin does not stem from our ancient ancestors eating a pomegranate (they didn't have apples in the Middle East then, that's a horrible European translation), sin is when we refuse—because we have free will—to act like Jesus toward both God and each other.
This is not to say that everyone needs to be a Christian or a Jesus follower. Jesus' values are universal to all world religions and philosophies. It simply all comes down to love—of God and our neighbor, so that eventually, we recognize each other as equal beloved beings of God, making it impossible to create enemies or wage war.
Augustine was correct about one thing: the sort of world Jesus envisioned requires a complete change of heart, mind, and soul, and that change can only come about when we stop resisting the call of God, and instead firmly embrace God once and for all, finally understanding we are indeed worthy—everyone.
Meditation: Awaken me to my true worth as an equal and beloved being in God.

God of glorious manifestation, sales
we are eternally thankful
for your constant presence
in our lives.
We are especially thankful
for the way you provide us
hope for tomorrow;
for the enjoyment of friends;
the joy of families;
the wonders of universes
too numerous to fathom;
for those who have gone before us;
love from our parents, treatment sisters and brothers;
love from our spouses and children;
our faith and our church.
[pause and make space for the quiet presence of God]
In the quietness of this moment,
matchless God,
speak to our hearts.
We long to know you
completely and fully,
so we might be carriers
of light and love to the world.
Give us the vision and faith
we so desperately yearn for
to trust your greatness
and know,
beyond doubt,
that we are One.
[pause and make space for the quiet presence of God]
Human words and thoughts
cannot explain you,
fully understand you or limit you,
but we strive to understand
our understanding,
and then we say in faith,
"We believe."
Honor us in ?our attempts
to share your love,
to spread your compassion,
to notify people of your presence
in our world and our lives,
so that all of us
might find the peace,
and love
that comes from
even the first small steps
toward your loving embrace.
We offer our prayers
for all the people of the world.
We pray for those we too often forget:
people who have lost hope,
those who mourn,
those who suffer because of war,
those who are lonely or sick,
those who go hungry.
[pause and make space for the quiet presence of God]
God of grace,
remind us that
we are all your children,
brothers and sisters,
co-heirs with Jesus the Christ.
Help us die
to the ways of the world
by obliterating the dark demons
of our minds
that cause us to doubt,
to lash out at each other,
to see otherness
rather than wholeness,
and that ultimately
keep us distant from you.
For it is only by dying
to our fears
that we can be
resurrected in,
and as, your love.
In your many names we pray, Amen.

Seeking Golden Threads
I've always found it useful to look for common threads weaving throughout the world's religions. It seems that if a spiritual idea is common to a multitude of belief systems, then there is probably some great wisdom there. At the very least, religious commonalities reveal that in our quest to understand our place in the universe, we quite often come to the same conclusions. One such common thread is "The Golden Rule." Every religion, theistic or not, includes some variation of "do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Check out the chart below (click for a larger version):
If most religious systems agree that we should be good and fair to each other, why then do we so often attempt to annihilate each other, ostensibly in the name of our religions?
I have two theories about that: First, many of the wars fought for "religious" reasons were (and perhaps are) political wars. On the ancient world stage, many of the states were theocracies. Emperors and kings were seen to be, if not gods themselves, then god's chosen representatives. With the advent of hereditary monarchies, rulers consulted religious leaders—Cardinals and Popes, for example, before making any decisions. Often, monarchs were simply puppets of the dominant religious system, who used the ill-conceived notion of "saving souls" as a façade for colonial expansion.
Second, there is a tendency within all religions to resist syncretism—the blending of different belief systems and traditions, sometimes in an attempt at inclusiveness. Many faithful people see any theological adjustment as a dilution of the "purity" of their religion. The truth is, however, that no religion is "pure." People don't live in a vacuum. The idea that religion (or any human system for that matter) won't be influenced by other religions, science, archaeology, history, biology, etc., is a bit naïve. Religions don't just suddenly appear in human consciousness. They are created by humans in response to their surroundings, most often in a quest to answer questions such as Who am I? Why am I here? What happens after I die? Is there a God, and if so, what is God's nature?
It takes a long time for a religion to evolve to the point where acceptance of different, sometimes contrary, ideas is possible. These ideas don't necessarily have to be integrated into the religion itself. But the sign of a healthy religion is that it is willing to reexamine its positions on a multitude of theological and civil topics. After all, religion is simply an organization of people who believe similar answers to the great questions. As people of faith, for us to grow, we must constantly be self-reflective, measuring what we believe against what others believe and what we continue to learn about the workings of the universe. Why shouldn't we expect the same from our religions?
There are many commonalities to be found in the world's religious systems, and one of the things I have discovered is that every single one of those common threads has something to do with love. Love God. Love each other. Love the planet. Love your children. It's a breathtakingly beautiful message, and one I continue to pray we, and the religions we affiliate with, will finally start to practice.
Meditation: Make me an entity of love, always willing to talk to and learn from people who think differently than I.

Finally things are back to normal after a month of vacation and visitors. Ry started school on Thursday, I am thrilled with her new class. The teachers seem super organized and way on top of things. They said on the first day that Ryleigh was very sweet and very smart and that she said the lunch time prayer. Hopefully the "sweetness" will last throughout the year!
Carter had his 4 month check up today and is doing great besides a nasty runny nose. He is now 16 pounds 12 oz. and 25.5 inches. Quite the big boy. He still hates doing his tummy time and I very rarely make him do it....he'll probably never roll over but it's okay, I want him to stay my baby forever. He started eating cereal and fruits and veggies about a month ago but when I took him in to the chiropractor to get adjusted she scolded me so we are waiting again until about 6 months. He is drooling like crazy and putting everything in his mouth, I'm sure teeth will be here soon.
Last week LeAnn and Ally made a trip down from Mn. We had a low key week of laying out by the pool and breaking up the constant fighting between Ry and Ally. They are so much alike that they constantly bicker and then play, then fight, then play. Besides the cold being passed around to everyone but me, the week was fun.

Spooky Food
Before you send your kids out the door with their plastic cauldrons, fake blood and chalky, milk-white faces, it's worth holding a little pre-Halloween feast crack
Feed the kids before you go trick or treating with food you've cooked and they'll be less likely to fill up on sweets while going round."
You could make it lunch or a tea party, but the key to a successful Halloween feast is to make things easy on yourself.
"Be creative and imaginative with your food for a Halloween Spook-tacular feast."
Try these super Halloween party food recipes with your family.
Eyeball pasta (Serves 4-6)
100g cherry tomatoes
150g pack mini mozzarella balls, drained
Handful basil
400g green tagliatelle
350g jar tomato sauce
4tbsp fresh pesto
Halve the cherry tomatoes and use a small, sharp knife or a teaspoon to remove the seeds. Cut the mozzarella balls in half. Place one half inside each tomato, trimming the edges if necessary to fit it in. Either cut the smallest circles you can from a basil leaf or finely chop the leaves and scrunch into small circles. Place one at the centre of each mozzarella ball.
Boil the pasta. Meanwhile, heat through the tomato sauce. When the tagliatelle is cooked, drain and stir through the pesto and any remaining basil, chopped finely. Divide between 4-6 serving bowls. Spoon over some tomato sauce, then arrange the stuffed tomato eyeballs on top.
Freaky fingers (Makes 20)
100g caster sugar
100g butter
1 egg yolk
200g plain flour
½ tsp vanilla extract
20 blanched almonds
Red food colouring, paste is best (optional)
Place the first five ingredients and a pinch of salt in a food processor and whizz just until a ball of dough forms.
Tear off a golfball-size piece of dough and use your hands to roll into finger-size cylinders - you should get about 20.
Place on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment - a little apart as they will spread during baking.
Use a knife to make a few cuts, close together, for the knuckles. Place an almond at the end of each finger and trim away excess pastry around the edge to neaten. Place in the fridge for 30 mins, then bake for 10-12 mins just until firm. Leave to cool a little, then paint the almond with food colouring, if you like. Can be made up to three days ahead and stored in an airtight container.
Haunted graveyard cake
To decorate:
1 egg white
50g icing sugar
200ml single cream
200g dark chocolate, finely chopped
½ a 250g pack rich tea finger biscuits
100g double chocolate cookies
25g white chocolate
Silver balls, to decorate
For the cake:
85g cocoa powder
200g self-raising flour
375g light brown muscovado sugar
4 eggs
200ml milk
175ml vegetable oil
To make the ghosts, heat oven to 110C/90C fan/gas. Whip the egg white in a clean bowl until stiff peaks form. Whisk in the sugar a tbsp at a time and keep whisking for a couple of mins until the mixture is thick and resembles shaving foam. Gently spoon the mixture into a large freezer bag, then cut a 1.5cm hole in one of the corners. Cover a baking sheet with some baking parchment. Carefully squeeze a small circle of whipped egg white out of the bag, pulling upwards as you do to make a ghost shape. Repeat until the mixture is used up - you should get about 15 ghosts. Bake for 1½ hrs until crisp. Can be stored in an airtight container for up to two days.
Now make the cake. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tip the cocoa powder, self-raising flour and sugar into a large bowl, breaking up any clumps of sugar. Mix together the eggs, milk and oil in a measuring cup or bowl, then pour over the dry ingredients and stir everything together until smooth.
Grease and line a deep baking dish (20 x 30 x 5cm) with baking parchment. Pour in the cake mixture and bake for 30 mins. Leave to cool, then turn out onto a serving plate. Alternatively, wrap well and store for up to two days.
Finish decorating the cake: heat cream in a saucepan until just boiling. Place the dark chocolate in a large bowl and pour over the hot cream. Stir until the chocolate melts. Use a clean brush to paint a layer of chocolate over 7 rich tea finger biscuits, then set aside to cool. Pour the rest of the chocolate mixture over the cake and smooth over with a knife. Whizz the chocolate cookies, or bash in a freezer bag with a rolling pin, until small crumbs form. Sprinkle over the top of the cake.
Place the white chocolate in a small bowl, set over a pan of simmering water. Leave for 5 mins or until melted, then spoon into a small freezer bag. Wait for 10 mins so the mixture is not too runny, then cut a tiny hole in one corner of the bag. Pipe out 2 small blobs onto each ghost, place a silver ball on each to make eyes, then pipe out suitable words and shapes on the gravestones. Leave for 30 mins to set, then push the biscuit gravestones into the cake and arrange the ghosts around. To get the ghosts to 'fly', push a thin wire (you can get these from a florist shop - remember to remove before eating) into the bottom of the ghost, then place in the cake, hiding the wire behind a gravestone.

Women, Families, and Work in Spain: Structural Changes and New Demands
This article explores the evolution of the care economy in Spain in the latter half of the twentieth century, analyzing the time use of family members, women's entrance into paid employment, and welfare state policies. Our historical account suggests that efforts to strengthen women's position in the labor market must go hand in hand with policies that encourage more equitable sharing of care responsibilities.

Both equally. Cheating is cheating regardless of the scenario
It was '5 years ago' Though... Let Sleeping Dogs Lie and no More Lies.
Why stir up a Hornet's Nest now in the Love Nest?
Good luck and Great question. xx
Both. I'm npt stupid enough to get sucked into this pathetic drama whatever butthurt member of each gender has. Cheaters need to go have their genitals cut off and thrown to dogs. Both sexes.
Is this yet another anti-Feminanzi question asked by a blue anon?
The 2nd one and if you were gay nobody would give a shit if you cheated.
women cheat, lots of them do, yes, so do men, unfortunately but, it's women, who get away with it more and better, that's why people would get so pissed off when they find out she cheated, because she was just simply better at it
Most likely for the second scenario.
Do the results surprise you?
I meant to vote 'I cheated on my wife'.
Both would be equally condemned. But when violence is involved, many people will cheer for the wife (who's been cheated on) hitting her husband; if it was the other way around, hell would break loose.
If my wife cheated on me 5 years ago I would just rather her not tell me

The body of Christ (chapter 12); the priority of charity (chapter 13); the boundaries for spiritual gifts (chapter 14); the resurrection of the dead (chapter 15); structure for orderly giving (chapter 16).
As we move into chapter 12, Paul begins to correct the ignorance of the Corinthians regarding spiritual gifts. Remember the context – they think they've got it all together (4:10). They certainly didn't think they were ignorant about spiritual gifts. I mean, they were using their gifts; they were having services where the "Spirit" was literally overwhelming people. The only problem was, it wasn't the Spirit of God! God actually uses sarcasm in the passages we will look at today to rebuke the Corinthians.
God establishes three keys to spiritual gifts in verses 4-6:
1. There are different gifts.
2. There are different ways to administer your gift.
3. There are different ways to operate your gift.
However, there is one overarching principle guiding spiritual gifts. Verse 7 states that the purpose of the gifts is to "profit withal". In other words, the purpose of your spiritual gift is not for your benefit; it is for the benefit of the whole body. God then illustrates this point by using the example of our human body. The purpose for our hand is not for the benefit of our hand, it is for the benefit of our whole body. Through this illustration, God also emphasizes the necessity of all believers within a local church. Every member is necessary. Sometime believers can get the idea, or live with the feeling, that they are not as important as other members of the body. But the point of the passage is that every member of Christ's body is just as vital as any member of our own human body is to us. Because of that fact, as a body we are to care about one another; we're to rejoice when others rejoice and weep with those in sorrow. Because we so often live with a pre!
occupation concerning ourselves (II Tim. 3:1-2), instead of caring about one another, we're often jealous and/or envious of one another (Gal. 5:26).
Pay close attention to 12:28-31. The obvious answer to the questions being asked is "No! We do not all have the same gifts. We each have different gifts." Also look back at 12: 7-11. Do we get to choose our gift? No, the Holy Spirit imparts our gifts to us as He chooses. Verse 31 is one of those sarcastic phrases Paul uses to rebuke the Corinthians. First, he states their ignorance, and then he reveals an example of their ignorance. These people were coveting certain gifts (the "showy" gifts) even though we have no say in our gift and it is imparted by the Holy Spirit at His will. God is using sarcasm to illustrate immaturity in coveting "the best gifts". God then reveals where their focus should be: not on what gifts I want to have, but rather, on a more excellent way. More excellent than what? More excellent than ignorantly trying to obtain different gifts or showing off the gift you do have!
The placement of chapter 13 is key to understanding spiritual gifts. Never lose sight of the context when studying scripture. Verses 1-3 of chapter 13 are a direct confrontation in the face of the Corinthians. They have the appearance of "spirituality" in their lives and in their church, but it is only an appearance. They're consumed with the show of spirituality. God reveals that it doesn't matter how much you speak in tongues, it doesn't matter how many gifts you have and how well you use them, it doesn't matter how much you give, if you don't have charity in your life, it is all WORTHLESS. Before we condemn the Corinthians, why don't we try to paraphrase this into something that is a little more applicable to us:
Though I am heavily involved in discipleship and even participate in the 365 Days of Pursuit, and have not charity, I am nothing. And though I carry the correct Bible, and can divide it into the correct dispensations, and though I've gone through all of the layers and levels of training offered in my local church, if I don't have charity, I'm just full of information and knowledge. And though I discover my spiritual gift, and do all kinds of things so that everyone else in the church thinks I have it all together, if I don't have charity, I am really nothing more than a fat-headed Laodicean.
We can and do pursue a lot of things. Paul says that the excellent thing to pursue is charity. If we live our whole Christian life without ever really completely being able to identify our spiritual gifts, but we live a life of charity, we will have lived the life God wants us to live. God then describes what biblical charity looks like. How does your life line up with verses 4-7? That is how we can really determine where we are spiritually.
God completes this chapter by again revealing that charity is superior to the gifts themselves. In fact, He says there's going to be a time when the "showy" gifts the Corinthians were so zealous for, will cease and disappear. We do not have the time in this tool to get into all the reasons the sign gifts have ceased. However, it is important for each of us to have a basic understanding of why this is true, and if you are sketchy on this issue, you would do well to study it for yourself and talk with your discipler, or your pastors about it. In a nutshell, there were miraculous gifts given as signs in the period of time before the N.T. had been completed, for the purpose of authenticating both the messenger and his message (See Heb. 2:3-4). After the N.T. was completed, they ceased to have a biblical purpose.
Chapter 14 is a chapter that is often lifted out of its context (chapters 12-13), along with individual verses that are lifted out to form a faulty doctrine. For example, we have all heard someone say that the gift of tongues is a heavenly language that draws a person closer to God. Where does this come from? Most will show you verse 2 (speaking to God) and then verse 4 (edifies himself). One question will help you understand this chapter in its proper context – What is the purpose of spiritual gifts? Are they for the benefit of the individual, or for the benefit of the body? We have already clearly seen that God emphasizes that they are for the body, not for the individual. Paul again is using their arguments (i.e. "I just speak to God and edify myself.") in a sarcastic way to reveal their ignorance. Also, notice in verse 1 how God separates the term spiritual gifts from prophecy. There certainly is a spiritual gift of prophecy, but that is not what God is not ta!
lking about in this chapter. God is talking about the ability of every believer to prophesy (i.e. to proclaim the truth of God and His Word). Remember, does everyone have the gift of prophecy? No, but every believer can prophesy (proclaim the truth of God)! This is similar to the fact that there is a spiritual gift of giving and a gift of faith. However, every believer is called to give, as well as to exercise faith.
God spends the first half of chapter 14 showing the priority of speaking His truth in a manner in which people can understand, rather than trying to show off some spectacular gift. The second part of the chapter deals with the proper use of gifts within the body. The basic principle in verse 40 is that things are to be done decently and in order. Any church doing things in a crazy manner (most charismatic churches) are directly disobeying God's Word. Even at the time of the writing of I Corinthians when God was still using these sign gifts to authenticate the messenger and his message, there was a specific prescription they were to follow to maintain "decency" and "orderliness":
1. In a service, only two, or at the most three were permitted to
speak in tongues. Also, they were to speak in turn, not at the
same time. (14:27)
2. Someone was permitted to speak in tongues only if there was
someone present with the gift of interpretation of tongues as
well. Otherwise, tongues were forbidden. (14:27-28) 3. Prophesying was likewise to be one at a time, but there was no
limit to the amount of people who could prophesy (proclaim the
truth). (14:29-31)
4. Women are not permitted to speak in tongues or prophesy in the
service. (14:34-35)
Because the N.T. is complete, the sign gifts are no longer necessary. But even if they were operative today, I know of no churches that follow the clear instructions given for their use in this chapter. Certainly there are churches that do, I'm just saying I know of none. It's one thing to believe all the gifts are still operating today. It's quite another not to follow God's clear instructions for their use.
But not only were the Corinthians messed up on spiritual gifts, in chapter 15, Paul shows that they were also messed up on the resurrection. This chapter clearly lays out the priority of Christ's resurrection. Everything we believe is predicated on the fact that Jesus Christ physically rose from the dead. If that did not happen, we are the most deceived, disillusioned, pitiful and miserable people on this planet.
The fact is, however, Christ did rise from the dead! And just as in Adam we were born sinners; in Christ we are born righteous. As in Adam all die; in Christ we are all made alive. As in Adam we were born in his image; in Christ we are born in Christ's image. As in Adam we were born with a body like his; in Christ we will receive a glorified body like Christ's.
The resurrection of Christ and its subsequent benefits and promises should be the motivation that keeps us continually abounding in the work of the Lord. Are you "abounding" in the work of the Lord, or have you grown complacent and weary? If so, perhaps you have misplaced the importance and implications of the resurrection.
In chapter 16, God instructs the Corinthians concerning the best way to receive the offerings they were collecting to relieve the saints in the church at Jerusalem. Verse 9 reveals a truth we must always keep in mind: open doors and adversaries go hand-in-hand! Fulfilling our mission on this planet is not a walk in the park. It is a battle. Expect resistance. Expect difficulties. Expect adversaries, but, by all means, press on! Be strong in the Lord.

Reviews of Sparkling Sleeveless Lace Beading Column Short Cocktail Dress
I ordered this dress for my wedding. The dress is absolutely beautiful. If you order this dress, order it two sizes larger than you need. There is a satin under layer and that satin layer is considerably smaller than the lace dress. Every dress in my closet is a size 14. I ordered the dress exactly to my measurements and it's not even close to fitting. My daughter who is 18 years old and 125 pounds tried on the dress and it fits her perfectly. Her normal size is a 6 maybe 8 depending on the cut of the dress. The worst part of the experience is that they will not refund your money. I sent pictures showing that the dress doesn't meet the measurements and I was told that it's not visable that it doesn't meet the measurements. I'm not sure how a picutre with a tape measurer doesn't show that the size doen't match the description. I think the site you tell you before placing the order that there are absolutely no returns. I would never have ordered this dress if I knew it couldn't be returned.By susan1084 Sep 22,2015
