Hi, my name is Barbara. I've trained for many years at the Newport Club, and also previously at Richard's ...
Newport Judo Club and the Head teacher Richard Roper are more than just Judo , Self defence and fitness. Judo teaches principles that are life changing. Richard is knows judo and also brings to life priciples of awareness of what is around you, exporing possibilities and options ( for example, using your voice to create safety and avoid phsysical risk) and understanding that one has to make choices and commit - A judo student learns many throws and techniques bringing choice but execution requires commitment and follow through. Newport judo and Richard have given my family a gift not just of judo and fitness but lessons in the 'judo way' that are a gem for life and business. Andrew Matthews/Chief Actuary/Medibank Private - For Better Health.
I'm completely new to judo and martial arts in general, and before I started doing judo at Newport Judo Club my physical health was fairly poor, so I was nervous, thinking that after my first session I was going to walk away bruised and never wanting to get on the judo mat ever again! I needn't have worried at all - Richard and the club at Newport are a welcoming, diverse bunch and you soon feel part of the team. There is lots to be learned about Japanese judo and its traditions, but Richard is great at laying it out in a way that isn't too overwhelming, whilst giving you the tools to learn productively and be respectful to the traditions. You might be interested in judo from a self-defense standpoint. I certainly am - particularly as a young woman! - Richard has some great anecdotes and has often come over and shown me useful techniques where it's relevant. There is definitely a lot to learn, and Newport Judo Club has a range of people with different belts and in my experience everyone has something useful to teach me, and it's great that Richard encourages that kind of friendly environment. I'm (obviously) part of the Seniors class but I've shown up early for the Juniors by accident a few times, and the kids look like they're having a blast too so that's great!
The first thing you learn in practically all Asian Martial Arts is how to bow - something that is foreign to most other activities in western life. Why is this important? Read this article to find out! Read more

There is definitely something for everyone at Nice Day Chinese Seafood Restaurant conveniently located in the Liliha community. Dining Out was fortunate enough to catch up with friends Vanda Gill, Kuulei Alma-Francis and Lois Sueda for a dim sum lunch one afternoon.
The trio all enjoyed different types of dim sum, and Nice Day is the best place to go. "It satisfies each of our palates," Alma-Francis says.
Vanda Gill: "I like all the seafood dim sum, but Lois is allergic to seafood. The reason we came is because of its great location and great, free parking."
Kuulei Alama-Francis: "I like more of the vegetarian dishes. I really like the spinach dim sum."
Lois Sueda: "I like the mochi rice. It's so flavorful. It's really great because it's satisfying and filling."

Development and evaluation of modeling approaches for transients in centrifugal chillers

Dynamic modeling of vapor compression equipment is gaining increasing attention in recent years. The availability of cheap and powerful computers is simplifying the heretofore formidable challenge of numerically solving the non-linear differential equations that arise in first-principle based system models. Recent advances in the HVAC industry such as fault detection and diagnostics (FDD) require, for the design and validation of algorithms, extensive chiller data with and without faults. Faulty performance data from chillers is extremely difficult to get from commercial installations and therefore models are necessary. This requirement necessitates the use of first-principles since the fault and its severity need to be varied in a physically meaningful manner to produce useful data. First-principles models involve the solution of transient mass, energy and momentum balances which are a system of non-linear, coupled, partial differential equations. Limited study has been done in the past on identifying efficient methods of formulating and solving these systems for centrifugal liquid chillers. Existing system models are either not for centrifugal compressors or do not contain enough detail in the heat exchangers to allow fault simulation. Also, little information is provided regarding the execution speed and accuracy of different modeling approaches. This thesis includes a comparison of the finite-volume and the moving-boundary formulations for modeling dynamics of shell-and-tube heat-exchangers. The finite volume models performance is investigated using direct solution methods with explicit integration and a sequential solution method with implicit integration. The moving boundary model is studied using a direct solution method and a state-space formulation. The goal is to identify the computationally most efficient approach for future model developers. Validation results with and without faults are presented, using data obtained from a 90-ton centrifugal liquid chiller test-stand available at Herrick Labs, Purdue University. It is found that the direct solution methods are preferable for both the formulations. The sequential solution with implicit integration is less robust in convergence than the direct solution when the finite volume formulation is used. The state-space solution when using the moving boundary formulation is restricted to small transients due to the linearization approximation. Between the formulations, the finite volume tolerates a wider range of inlet conditions than the latter and is preferable when start-up is needed. The moving boundary approach executes twice as fast as the finite volume approach for comparable accuracy. ^

SMU, Packers and Cowboys Great Forrest Gregg Diagnosed With Parkinson's Disease
An old friends passes along this story from the Associated Press: Former SMU great Forrest Gregg -- Birthright, Texas's own, and a two-time All-Southwest Conference selection in 1954 and '55 -- has disclosed that he's been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Gregg, a first-round draft pick of the Green Bay Packers and a Dallas Cowboy at the end of his championship-packed career, was also the man chosen in 1988 to coach the Mustangs following SMU's return to football after receiving the NCAA's death penalty -- a moment considered the 63rd greatest in Hilltop history.
From the AP account:
Although the cause of the debilitating neurological disorder is unknown, Gregg, his family and his neurologist say his disease may be related to numerous concussions he suffered during his playing career in the 1950s at SMU and from 1956-71 with the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys. ...
The former offensive lineman, who was a six-time All-Pro and nine-time Pro Bowler, said he wanted to go public with his diagnosis to promote understanding of the disease and push for more research. He said he hopes to help others recognize the signs of Parkinson's and seek treatment early enough to delay the degenerative effects of the disease on both mind and body.
"I don't pretend to say that I'm important to the scheme of things in the whole world, but I can do something and help along people who have this disease," Gregg said. "So, I'm kind of just saying that I have it, I want to do something about it and I think I found the right people to help me along the line.
As the Pro Football Hall of Fame reminds, Vince Lombardi once wrote: "Forrest Gregg is the finest player I ever coached!"

Charlotte is a minor villain in Puella Magi Madoka Magica. She is a Witch, that is to say a magical girl corrupted by grief and despair. Unlike most witches, she has two forms . Her normal form is not very formidable, but her caterpillar form is very agile and dangerous, she can easily tear enemies apart using her sharp teeth.
Charlotte reappears in The Rebellion Story, though she has a slightly different appearance. The other characters call her Bebe, and she is helping the magical girls in their fight against the Nightmares. It is revealed that Bebe is a disguised Nagisa Momoe, who is introduced in the movie as the magical girl Charlotte originally was.
Official profile
"The dessert witch, with a tenacious nature. She desires everything. She will never give up. Though she is capable of creating infinite amounts of any dessert she desires, she is unable to make the cheese that she loves most. One could easily catch her off-guard with a piece of cheese."
Rebellion Story
"The Dessert Witch. Once dreamt of tenacity. A mysterious creature who suddenly appeared in Mami's home. Was christened "Bebe," but it is actually the Dessert Witch who arrived from the Law of Cycles. She was expressionless and silent when she was first encountered, but took on its current appearance out of the blue. A bit loud. Mami made its clothes by hand. Mami resembles someone who appeared in the final nightmare the witch saw."


text: TheStreet.com Ratings initiated coverage of 15 exchange-traded funds that accrued a sufficient track record of risk and performance data by the end of December 2008. Only one of the newly rated ETFs with inception dates during December 2007 received our top rating level of excellent. Starting off with a rating of A+, the Market Vectors Lehman Brothers AMT-Free Intermediate Municipal ETF ( ITM) is the sole buy-rated fund of the bunch. The fund mirrors the Lehman Brothers AMT-Free Intermediate Continuous Municipal Index with an average of 10.8 years until maturity. Not only does this municipal bond fund duck federal and some state and local taxes, but it is also designed to be free from alternative minimum tax requirements. As of Nov. 30, 2008, the fund's 30-day yield of 4.25% would be equivalent to 6.54% for wealthy investors in the 35% tax bracket. The 75 issues held were predominantly local, state, transportation, special tax, water, lease, power, education and hospital municipal bonds, with New York, California and Texas topping the list of debtor states. At C+, just missing the cut for a buy rating, the Vanguard Extended Duration Treasury ETF ( EDV) spiked upward to a total one-year return of 54.51% in 2008. The fund is the exchange-traded version of the similarly named open-end fund topping our list of best-performing Vanguard funds in December.

Gold Thoughts
This week the bad ideas started early. General Motors merging with Chrysler? How long will it take GM's management to convert Chrysler's stylish models into dull? Mergers of excitement too with satellite radio networks that no one listens to and makers of small rocks from large rocks. A start to a week right up there with rearranging deck chairs. With U.S. economy about to enter a recession, do these possible transactions really matter? Rather, focus on selling U.S. based financial institutions with exposure to the imploding mortgage and housing markets.
Street is now into forecasting weather, selling off oil. Somehow and someway this action is connected to the price of Gold. No one knows how, but that is the accepted thinking. Street is the only part of the globe that is bearish on Gold. Given that Gold's five year returns exceed that of most investment managers perhaps their attitude is reasonable. One would not want customers to discover they could do better in Gold, and not have to pay management fees. Note that Gold rose on Monday when NYC was closed. When NYC is open and global investors are absent, Gold sells down as was done on Tuesday. Many Asian investors are inactive most of this week as they celebrate the new year. But, they will be back. Which has more market power, the rest of the world or NYC?
Gold market entered this week extremely over bought, thanks to Chairman Bernanke. Gold market apparently likes this Rumsfeldian chairman of the Federal Reserve. Tuesday's sell off should have been expected, and actually encouraged. These corrections build an over sold condition for traders and investors to use to their advantage. CN$Gold and €Gold rapidly moving to over sold. EU and Canadian investors should use price weakness to add to positions. U.S. based investors can start buying later in the week.
Currency crises are generally created by what is referred to as currency mismatch. In the case of the Mexican peso crisis, financial assets were denominated in pesos and liabilities were denominated in dollars. Such a situation is obviously a currency mismatch. A massive currency mismatch situation has developed with the U.S. dollar. Foreign central banks own many hundreds of billions of dollar denominated assets financed by local currency debts, issued during sterilization operations. Funds own hundreds of billion of U.S. dollar denominated equities and bonds financed with yen carry trade loans. When this mismatch reaches critical stage, a financial Hiroshima will arrive for the dollar and U.S. equity markets. A $4 Euro? Yen at 38:$1? Gold at $1,400? How will your portfolio do?

Why Kids Story Books Act As Great Gifts For Kids?
Children stories can be as amusing as a child's laughter. Do you have a child who has an upcoming birthday? Why not present him with a nice and decent kids story book.
Children stories can be as amusing as a child's laughter. Do you have a child who has an upcoming birthday? Why not present him with a nice and decent kids story book.
A decent new kid's story book for a child has a flashy toy appeal which grabs the attention of the child right way. Even if the toy tends to lose its shimmer over a period of time, the book has the potential to keep the reader attracted towards it and remember the story and keep coming back to take insights.
The color of the book is the first eye opener!
The book's color is the first thing which will grab the child's eye. It's the appearance which makes the first cut so is true with a book. However, as it goes that a book must never be judged by its cover.
As the children read the stories, they start making up their own stories or relating it to real events in life. This broadens their horizon of imaginations and creative skills which is an essential quality to be developed.
The kids story books encourage imagination as well as developing necessary reading skills. A child gets deeply engrossed relinquishing all his worries and enjoying the story just like watching a movie.
Kids story books encourage kids to read-
The kids story books have the potential to encourage children built on essential reading habits. Many kids develop reading habits quickly as well as develop good story telling skills. This is because the child is used to listening various stories from his parents. Also many parents make their children read the various stories of children. As a result the child starts understanding the meaning of several words and phrases thus improving his vocabulary.
After all, every child loves to sleep upon listening the rhyming tales of stories of children being uttered from the mouth of their parents.
Stories for children help to build a lovely relationship-
Story telling is the most efficient way of parents interacting with their children. This paves way for the creation of a lovely child-and-parent relationship.
Kids love to listen to the stories read by grand-parents and also remember the essential values being learnt and remember forever.
Also the benefits are two ways. Firstly, the parents get to spend quality time with their children. Secondly, the kids learn and remembers good thing.
Besides, the parent also gets to know their child better and learn new things.
Hence, if you're looking forward to give your child a great present then you might just consider buying a good story book! And if the story books are personalized, they will give an enhanced reading experience. Your child will embrace reading as his favorite pass time!
The kids' story books are a great source of entertainment and learning for children.

"Your friends are but a click away!" That's the promise of SuperMegaNet, a new kind of chat program that turns ordinary computers and webcams into something extraordinary. When four unlikely friends install a beta version of the software as part of a class assignment, they discover that not only can they video chat in real-time, they can actually teleport to and from each other's homes as easily as stepping from one room to the next. There's a catch, though: the connection can't be turned off. Once you add someone to your buddy list, they're yours for life (and vice versa). Like it or not, Theo, Ernie, Eva, and Jan are about to learn the true meaning of "always on."
This collection contains the complete blog entries from SuperMegaNet's third year at Jessture.com (January – August 2010).

I've participated in an online christmas calendar this year. Every day until christmas you will hear a sound clip, and your task is to guess the name of the original artist and the title of the song being played.

Still, give it a try at musikkjulekalender2012.appspot.com (created by Tobias Rusås Olsen).
This weekend I went to the studio with guitar player Jon Martin Skauge and bass player Torbjørn Hillersøy. The plan was to record the 3rd album of Jon Martin Skauge. We recorded 14 tunes in just two days. Pretty intense, but I think the result is going to be awesome. The music is based on standard jazz tunes, but we try to make our own touch with a starting point of fusion / jazz rock

A WAR veteran who shot dead a former West Australian bikie has been sentenced to eight years in jail.
James Stephen Callaghan, 65, was convicted of the manslaughter of 46-year-old Rebels bikie member Gavin McMaster in February last year after the victim set fire to Callaghan's utility.
Callaghan had claimed he was acting in self-defence after Mr McMaster threw a tomahawk at him in the Wheatbelt town of Koorda and then ran inside his house, allegedly to get another weapon.
Callaghan fired one shot outside and then chased Mr McMaster inside the house, firing two more times into the unarmed man's back.
The WA Supreme Court heard on Wednesday that Mr McMaster, also a former soldier, had set fire to Callaghan's utility after the pair had a falling out, which escalated tensions between them.
Callaghan told police he did not go to them about the vehicle because in the bikie world "you don't go running to the cops", the court heard.
In sentencing, Commissioner Kevin Sleight said the shots were "unreasonable" and Callaghan clearly had a "twisted attitude" about the use of firearms.
"This was not a war zone," he said.
Comm Sleight said he could place little weight on Callaghan's remorse and noted that Callaghan had not acknowledged that his actions were excessive.
Victim impact statements were submitted by Mr McMaster's mother, sister, brother and mother of his children.
"He was a much loved person within his family," Comm Sleight said.
Callaghan, whose sentence was backdated to February last year, must serve six years behind bars before being eligible for parole.

I doubt 17 year old girls would appreciate Pac, ODB, or Public Enemy. More like Macklemore or G-Eazy instead.

Me neither. I hate Macklemore. I do like G-Eazy though. I still highly doubt that a great majority of teen girls would appreciate old school hip hop. They would definitely not like it in my opinion.

Is there a way to increase the width of the content displayed in the Toggled Content widget?Asked by wrstaff on July 23, 2015 at 11:27 PM
I have a very lengthy terms and agreement - roughly 14 pages worth. I'm splitting it into sections (a separate toggled content widget for each section), but each section is still fairly large. It would help if I could increase the width of the content to utilitze the full width of my form instead of only 2/3rds.
I'm also having an issue where the closed toggled content widget label isn't displaying correctly. Roughly 3/4ths of the label 'hides' until you click on it to expand - then the full label is in view.
Unfortunately we can use CSS to modify the width of the toggle widget, have you tried creating the terms and condition that links to a copy of the document (which can be hosted on google drive or dropbox)
Please see the attached screenshot
Please let us know if this will work for you.

Amid speculation that Mamelodi Sundown's winger Anthony Laffor could be on his way out of the Chloorkop side, coach Pitso Mosimane has indicated that it's just a rumour.
Mosimane was talking to the media after their win against Maritzburg United at the Harry Gwala Stadium where the speedy Liberian netted a brace.
The former SuperSport United man was said to be unhappy and unsettled at the star studded Sundowns, and was keen for a move away from the league champions with his contract set to run out in June 2015.
The Amkhhosi are linked to his signature as well.
Mosimane, however, said 'Downs are preparing a new offer for the Liberian attacker.
"Rumours are rumours and we are busy dealing with Anthony's contract," Mosimane said
"It was the best time to play him and show us what he can do. I said prior to him, 'go there and fight for your contract and show us what you can do, we love you'.
"We want him to stay at Sundowns and I said to him 'the team wants you and needs you too and you are a Sundowns player'.
"And he said, 'coach I don't want to leave and I want to stay at Sundowns' and I said 'okay'.
"We don't operate like that, you know sometimes when the player has a contract that is lapsing, you know what happens? Where do we send our players? We send them on the stands.
"So we don't have time for rumours, we are professionals and he is our boy and we understand him."
The winger started for the first time in the 2014/15 PSL season versus the Steve Komphela's side having made five appearances as a substitute

Information is the new currency. And it's essential to accelerating innovation.
Within innovation ecosystems, mash-ups of scientists, students, educators, clinicians, entrepreneurs, politicians, citizens, and more, collaborate in unpredictable ways. Communities around the world are embracing the strength of multidisciplinary teams to fuel solutions to intractable problems.
In this inclusive environment, connections to each other and to information are imperative to ensure efficiency and effectiveness. So much data and expertise exist outside of our traditional institutions of innovation that siloed repositories cannot support the advancement they were meant to serve.
What would happen if data, ideas, and content were freely available to everyone to use and contribute to as they wish, without restrictions?
What kinds of new knowledge would we generate? What kinds of efficiencies would we find? What security would be needed to protect them? As public institutions endeavour to provide greater access to data, society grapples with how to leverage it. Find out what kind of infrastructure is needed to support this inclusive community with their diverse ideas. Get insight into the best practices already being harnessed across the globe and from experts right here in our own backyard. Discover how you can enable greater transparency, participation, and improved decisions through "open".
Topics we'll explore:
How to support the complex needs of openness in …
- Data – Leveraging what exists and applying new analytics
- Government – Managing through collaboration with constituents
- Education – Open, accessible classroom resources and new data literacies
- Research – Encouraging public access to and new applications of scientific discoveries
- Bioinformatics and medical research – Optimizing data science to accelerate health
- Technology – Considering new open network frameworks and the increased importance of security and privacy
Who should attend:

The Villanova University football team will not play again for two weeks, and that's a good thing for St. Joseph High School graduate Norman White.
Villanova coach Andy Talley said during his weekly conference call Monday that White, the Wildcats' star receiver, is dealing with a medial collateral ligament injury. White had just three catches for 30 yards in Saturday's 49-35 loss to Towson.
"Norm White has a little bit of an MCL, which we're concerned about," Talley said. "He was really ineffective through most of the game Saturday."
White, an NFL prospect, missed all last season with a foot injury. As a fifth-year senior this year, he already had been hampered by a torn labrum.
"Unfortunately, he's just had a rough year physically," Talley said.
Several other Villanova players are nursing injuries, so being off next weekend should be beneficial.
"This is not (usually) the most opportune time if you could pick your open date, but for Villanova it kind of fits very nicely," Talley said. "I think we're a tired football team. We're still pretty young. I think a lot of our guys just aren't up where they should be physically."

According to a fresh report coming from South Korean publication Maeil Business Newspaper, Samsung has reportedly nabbed 75% of Apple's next-gen 'A9' SoC orders. So, if we are to believe this report, no matter how much Apple wouldn't want to reduce its dependency on Samsung, the company seems to be the single one able to responsibly manufacture on its own the chips for the future iPhones and iPads.
The publication says Samsung's factory from Austin, Texas will handle a 75 percent slice of orders for Apple's upcoming System-on-Chip, which is expected to be dubbed "A9".
Apple could be using Samsung's advanced 14-nanometer FinFET fabrication process, according to sources. Before the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus launch, Samsung was responsible for fabricating all A-series chips, but Apple has decided to partner with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. for a part of its A8 production.
The reason for diversification seems to be the preparation for unexpected slowdowns like low yield rates. It will be interesting to observe whether Apple will maintain its diversification strategy or it will choose to place more orders with Samsung.
Source: Maeil Business Newspaper
Samsung Said to Have Won 75% of orders for the Production of Apple's Next-generation A9 Chip

WaPo Guest Columnist - "From Jesus socialism to capitalistic Christianity" - Great Read!
The phenomena of how Christianity became pro-capitalistism is rarely discussed. Instead, it is taken as canon by the mainstream media that Evangelical Christians and free marketeers happily co-exist under the Republican banner. However, if anyone has read the Bible, as I was required to do as a child, was is amazing is how socialistic many of its passages appear to be. I am not even talking about the passages that slam the rich such as those saying it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of the needle then for a rich man to enter the kingdom of god.
My take is that Republican ownership of the religious right is classic case of folks making god in their image, rather than the other way around. How else can the right wing happily embrace the contradictory views of Ayn Rand, who was an outspoken atheist, while also currying favor with the religious right. I would love to see Christian reclaim the Bible from those who use it defend capitalism and the exploitation of the poor.
Jesus is no free marketeer. Improving ones earthly financial circumstances is not nearly as critical as preparing for the end times that will arrive at any minute. He does offer substantial encouragement for the poor, and warns the wealthy that they are in grave danger of blowing their prospects of reaching paradise, as per the metaphor of a rich person entering heaven being as difficult as a camel passing through the eye of the needle (a narrow passageway designed to hinder intruders). This caution makes sense: sociological research is confirming that the more securely prosperous individuals and societies are, the more likely they are to lose the faith. A basic point of core Christian doctrine is that the wealthy have no more access to heaven than anyone else (and in fact may have less), offering hope to the impoverished rejected by cults that court the elites. This remains true in Catholicism, in which being poor does not constitute evidence of a personal deficiency, and church authorities decry the excesses of unrestrained capital at the expense of social justice.
But to understand just how non-capitalistic Christianity is supposed to be we turn to the first chapter after the gospels, Acts, which describes the events of the early church. Chapters 2 and 4 state that all the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they had . There were no needy persons among them. From time to time those who owned lands or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles feet, and it was distributed to anyone as he had need.
Now folks, thats outright socialism of the type described millennia later by Marx - who likely got the general idea from the gospels.
The pro-capitalist Christians who are aware of these passages wave them away even though it is the only explicit description of Christian economics in the Bible.

5. Here is a sampling...
First, there are several Biblical quotes that directly endorse collective ownership, which are often ignored by the evangelical Christians:
And all that believed were together, and had all things in common;
Acts 2: 44, 45
And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
Acts 4:32-37
Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
Romans 13:1-7
Second, in direct contradiction to those who preach the prosperity gospel, i.e., that being rich reflects the Lord's favor and being poor reflects God's disfavor, the Bible contains numerous provisions expressing hostility to the rich:
"Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves."
- Matthew 21:12
"On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple area and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves,"
- Mark 11:15
"In the temple courts he found men selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money.
So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple area, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.
To those who sold doves he said, "Get these out of here! How dare you turn my Father's house into a market!"
- John 2:14-16
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
- Mark 10:25
Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
- Luke 18:25
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
- Matthew 19:24
Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
- Luke 18:25
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
- Matthew 19:24
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows
- I Timothy 6:10

7. Every time he said to sell all one had, give to the poor, and follow Him.
That's why the Early Church lived in a commune--they were following His dictates to the letter. Capitalism is based on greed and getting all one can for oneself. That is in direct opposition to what Christ preached.

9. OK but Jesus also taught invest money for a profit and that's capitalism.
For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.
Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.
And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

14. You do realize he wasn't talking about money there, right?
He was talking about the gifts our Father gives us, and what happens at Judgment Day if we haven't used our gifts from God the way we're supposed to. He used money as a metaphor because all of his parables are metaphors for the Kingdom of God. The Parable of the Sower isn't actually about farming, either.

17. Yes, I did.
I grew up an evangelical and went to Mt. Vernon Nazarene University. I am well aware what a talent is, what a cubit is, and all of it. That's also how I know that Jesus used metaphors to get through to the people listening, though his disciples had to ask a few times, such as in the Parable of the Sower, what the metaphors stood for.
The Gospels taken as a whole are definitely not on the side of capitalism. We are not told to go out and get rich but the opposite. Capitalism is about greed and getting rich, so it's against Christ's teachings. It's telling that you have to ignore what the parable is really about in order to twist it to mean what you want it to mean.

20. Interesting.
You're losing the debate, so you end it and hope a smiley will make it okay? Odd.
I'm now Eastern Orthodox, thank you, and I have never heard an Orthodox priest say that we have to take the parables literally, and neither have I read anything by the Church Fathers saying that Jesus wanted us to get rich based on the Parable of the Talents. Is it worth pointing out that Jesus didn't use the word "usury" because he didn't speak English?
So, are you one of those who also thinks that the streets in Heaven will be literally made of clear gold (Rev. 21:18)? Jesus spoke in metaphors that He sometimes then explained. The parables were not meant to be taken literally, not even when he used words like "usury."

43. IMHO, it takes a special kind of obliviousness...
...to look at that parable and conclude that it's about making smart financial investments, rather than as a warning about the need to use whatever gifts God allotted to each of us to serve God by reaching out to others.
The fact is, on one level, the parable wouldn't be so challenging and even frightening if it were about literal gold or silver, because my answer could, at many times, be "that's fine, but since I haven't been gifted with any 'talents' of gold or silver, it really doesn't apply to me." But, of it's a reference to any gifts, aptitudes, or skills which I've been handed, I have no excuse for neglecting to use them, do I?

19. Strictly speaking . . .
. . . None of the sayings in the Bible that are attributed to Jesus can, with any certainty, be deemed to have actually been said by Jesus. The earliest of the four Gospels was written nearly 30 years after Jesus' death, and human memory being what it is, there can be no certainty that the memories of the writers was correct.
Acts, however, is a fairly contemporaneous account of the early Christian Church's communal life, based on that community's understanding of Jesus' teachings. As such, it is a pretty reliable guide as to what the early Christians believed, based on Jesus' teaching as they understood it.

...are you literally demanding Biblical references where Jesus discussed capitalism and socialism as espoused by Adam Smith, Robert Owen or Karl Marx ? If so, I think you are missing the point that it is a mistake for Republicans to push the notion that there is some natural or even consistent relationship between free marketeers and Christianity. Indeed, the actual quotes of Jesus seem to border upon the "class warfare" that Republicans so strongly condemn. Don't you agree?

42. With all due respect, you're just playing games...
The terms "socialism" and "capitalism" post-date the time of Christ by centuries, so he wouldn't have used those words. However, the concepts behind them existed long before the terms were coined, and Jesus repeatedly speaks of the need to "love your neighbor as yourself" and "sell all you have and give to the poor" and so on, while condemning those who only strive after money and possessions, while ignoring the needs of those around them (the parable of Dives and Lazarus is as good a place to start as any) -- in other words, the essences of socialism and capitalism, respectively, in a nutshell.

44. The words "socialism" and "capitalism" didn't exist yet.
But -- among other things -- Jesus told a rich man that if he wanted to follow him, he needed to sell everything he had and give it to the poor. That's a socialistic concept, even if he didn't use the word. Also, the Apostles themselves held everything in common.
Mark 10:21-22 Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said, "You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me." When he heard this, he was shocked and went away grieving, for he had many possessions.
This is what was supposed to happen in heaven:
Matthew 25:34-36 Then the king will say to those at his right hand, "Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me."
Another after-death parable:
Luke 16:19-25 "There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day. And at his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, who longed to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man's table; even the dogs would come and lick his sores. The poor man died and was carried away by the angels to be with Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried.
In Hades, where he was being tormented, he looked up and saw Abraham far away with Lazarus by his side. He called out, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am in agony in these flames.' But Abraham said, 'Child, remember that during your lifetime you received your good things, and Lazarus in like manner evil things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in agony.
Mark 12:41-44 He sat down opposite the treasury, and watched the crowd putting money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums. 42 A poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which are worth a penny. 43 Then he called his disciples and said to them, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the treasury. 44 For all of them have contributed out of their abundance; but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on."
Luke 12:16-21 Then he told them a parable: "The land of a rich man produced abundantly. And he thought to himself, 'What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?' Then he said, 'I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, 'Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.' But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your life is being demanded of you. And the things you have prepared, whose will they be?' So it is with those who store up treasures for themselves but are not rich toward God."

4. Here are a few ...
"am going to start with Mark Chapter 10:21-25 21
Jesus looked at him and loved him. "One thing you lack," he said. "Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.
At this the man's face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth. Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, "Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
"Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.'
"They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you? "
He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me. "Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.
Obama is not a Socialist. Jesus however was the first Socialist."
These are the same people that will readily quote the Levitical Law against homosexuality...the rather barbarian set of laws Jesus came to replace.

24. Jesus told people to do these things
not because he wanted his followers to feel good because, "Hey! I gave to charity! I'm a good person!" No, he told people to do these things because we are supposed to change the world and make it a better place for our fellow man. Government has a much farther reach than any individual person or community of believers. We are charged with helping the poor, and if we can help them through our civic action, by erecting social programs that allow them to have dignity and help them to rise above their situation, then that is doing the work of God in this world.
If you can "know them by their fruits" then let's look at the fruits of unregulated capitalism: money consolidated in the hands of the few, workers exploited and given depressed wages, safety precautions cut to save a few dollars, pollution that threatens the entire world community, the encouragement of greed and envy among the consumer class so that they will buy your goods, and selfishness at every turn. Truly, "the love of money is the root of all evil."

36. Actually, subjugating yourself for another man is a HUGE part of the Gospel
Mark 9:33-35
They came to Capernaum and, once inside the house, he began to ask them, What were you arguing about on the way?i But they remained silent. They had been discussing among themselves on the way who was the greatest. Then he sat down, called the Twelve, and said to them, If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and the servant of all.
Mark 10:43-45
Rather, whoever wishes to be great among you will be your servant; whoever wishes to be first among you will be the slave of all. For the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.
Matthew 20:26-28
Rather, whoever wishes to be great among you shall be your servant; whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave. Just so, the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom* for many.
Matthew 23:11
The greatest among you must be your servant.
Luke 22:26
Rather, let the greatest among you be as the youngest, and the leader as the servant
John 13:12-16
So when he had washed their feet [and] put his garments back on and reclined at table again, he said to them, Do you realize what I have done for you? You call me teacher and master, and rightly so, for indeed I am. If I, therefore, the master and teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash one anothers feet. I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do.i Amen, amen, I say to you, no slave is greater than his master nor any messenger* greater than the one who sent him.
Matthew 25: 41-46
Then he will say to those on his left, Depart from me, you accursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink,stranger and you gave me no welcome, naked and you gave me no clothing, ill and in prison, and you did not care for me. Then they will answer and say, Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or ill or in prison, and not minister to your needs? He will answer them, Amen, I say to you, what you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for me. And these will go off to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.
We are called to imitate Christ as servants to all, to sacrifice for the good of our fellow Man. It's incredible to me that it's the supposedly "Godless" Democrats who put their money where their mouth is to help the poor and needy by putting the full force of the government behind this imperative, while the "Good Christian" folk of the Republican party clap and cheer when someone like Ron Paul says if a poor person doesn't have health insurance, they can just die. Anyone we can help, in any way, that is what we should and must do. Socialist institutions is but one way that we make sure to aid our more unfortunate brothers and sisters.

Mark 12: 14-17
They came and said to him, Teacher, we know that you are a truthful man and that you are not concerned with anyones opinion. You do not regard a persons status but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay the census tax to Caesar or not? Should we pay or should we not pay? Knowing their hypocrisy he said to them, Why are you testing me? Bring me a denarius to look at. They brought one to him and he said to them, Whose image and inscription is this? They replied to him, Caesars. So Jesus said to them, Repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God. They were utterly amazed at him.
We are instructed to pay duly enacted taxes; once that money is in the hands of the government, which, in this country, is a representative of the people, it is our moral imperative to see to it that those taxes go, in part, to protecting the most vulnerable among us, which is one of the most important instructions Christ left with his followers.

If we all follow His teachings on an individual level, it's not a huge leap to think that our government, which is just all of us acting together, should act the same way, taking care of the least of these, loving our neighbor as ourselves, etc.

While the words "socialism" and "capitalism" did not exist in biblical times, and their concepts of them at that time are different from ours, the gospel, and Christ's message, really does amount to what we would consider "socialism" in modern times, the notion that we are, indeed, our "brother's keeper", that the needs and voices of the powerless are far more imporant than the powerful, and that we are to care for the needs of each other regardless of how those needs came about. That is the way the disciples originally operated and it's been corrupted, twisted and distorted into individualistic, power-and-money-worshipping, judgmental bullshit, something it was never intended to be.

Mel's Caramel Corn
READY IN: 15mins
Recipe by appleydapply
I got this recipe from a dear friend. She always brought poppycock over for special occasions, then she moved away so I was on my own! It's so easy but impressive - adults and kids alike are addicted.

Quick and tasty. I left it alone for about one minute to find my preschooler and the caramel burned, so I think it needs constant stirring.
