The History of Life
To understand the history and evolution of creatures on our planet, scientists have divided time into various categories, called "Eras". These eras can then broken down into smaller units, or "periods". Below is a brief history of how life evolved from the dawn of time to the current day.
PRECAMBRIAN ERA: 4,500 - 600 million years ago. This era accounts for more than 90% of the total age of the earth. During this time, the earth, seas and the atmosphere formed. About three and a half billion years ago, life began at its simplest level, as single celled organisms. These creatures than began to evolve into ever more complex organisms.
PALEOZOIC ERA: 600-225 million years ago.
Cambrian Period 600-500 million years ago. Invertebrate life flourished, including trilobites, sponges, snails, and brachiopods. All life at this time was in the sea.
Ordovician Period 500-430 million years ago. The first corals and primitive fish which were the first vertebrates (or creatures with backbones ) appeared.
Silurian Period 430-395 million years ago. First land plants appeared. Sea life continued to flourish, and included algae, brachiopods, crinoids, trilobites, and corals.
Devonian Period 395-345 million years ago. First forests developed. Sharks and bony fishes now appeared. First spiders, millipedes and insects appeared. First primitive amphibians.
Mississippian Period 345-310 million years ago. Amphibians continued to develop on the land, and land plants spread in moist areas.
Pennsylvanian Period 310-280 million years ago. Trees grew to be 150 feet tall. Dragonflies with 30 inch wingspans developed, and there were many kinds of amphibians. The first reptiles appeared, developing from their amphibian ancestors.
Permian Period 280-225 million years ago. Ferns and conifers develop. Mammal - like reptiles developed from earlier reptiles. Large reptiles and amphibians lived in swampy areas.
MESOZOIC ERA: THE AGE OF THE DINOSAURS 225-65 million years ago.
Triassic Period 225-190 million years ago. After a great extinction that Wiped out over 90% of the creatures that lived in the Permian Period, other creatures evolved to fill the "niches" left vacant. The first dinosaurs appeared, as did the first mammals. Typical dinosaurs from this period included Coelophysis, a small meat eating creature that walked on two hind Iegs.
Jurassic Period 190-136 million years ago. Aquatic reptiles stalked the seas.
Dinosaurs continued to evolve into more advanced forms, including the armored
Stegosaurs, and the huge meat eating Allosaurs. It was during this time that dinosaurs
started to grow to truly enormous sizes, especially the Sauropods, the group that included
Apatosaurus and Brachiosaurus.
Cretaceous Period 136-65 million years ago. Dinosaurs continued to evolve into more specialized creatures. The armored dinosaurs now included the Ankylosaurs, who had bony armor over their bodies, and a huge club at the end of their tails. Another family of armored dinosaurs from this period were the Ceratopsians, or the horned dinosaurs". These creatures had horns and bony frills, and included such famous creatures at Triceratops and Styracosaurus. Meat eating dinosaurs included the famous Tyrannosaurus rex.
CENOZOIC ERA: THE AGE OF THE MAMMALS 65 million years ago to present
Tertiary Period 65-2 million years ago
At the end of the Cretaceous Period, another huge extinction occurred, wiping out every dinosaur. Many scientists feel this was caused by a huge meteor that smashed into the Earth, but some other experts feel there were other reasons, such as diseases or volcanic activity.
With the dinosaurs no longer around, the mammals could now evolve into larger size creatures to fill the empty ecological niches. Primitive horses, camels, pigs, and animals that would later evolve into our modern cats appeared.
Quaternary Period 2 million years ago - present
Mammals grow to huge sizes, and include the wooly mammoth', the mastodon, and the saber tooth "tiger". The very large mammals go extinct, while early man appears, and evolved into modern Homo sapiens.

Stress is a way our body responds to any kind of external demands or threats. When the body feels threatened, the nervous system responds by releasing a plethora of stress hormones which include cortisol and adrenaline. Hormones which arouse the body for any emergency actions. These hormones make the muscles tighten, the heart to pound faster, makes the breathing quicker so that the senses can become sharper for handling the stress.
These stress fighting hormones also bring in physical changes. It increases stamina and strength, quickens reaction time and enhances focusing abilities. In other words, these are the ways your body protects you by mobilising stress response to fight external stress elements that can harm your body. However, when you find elements within your comfort zone, stress factors can help you to stay energetic, focused and alert. Also in emergency situations, stress factors can save your life by providing additional strength to defend yourself. It can help you to meet new challenges. Stress is the quintessential factor that helps to keep you on your toes, sharpens your concentration, or drive you to fulfil your goals. But then, when stress happens beyond the comfort zone, signs of stress are not at all helpful, as it can also cause major damage to your mind and body, sometimes even beyond repair. The human body often performs a poor job while distinguishing between life-threatening events and the daily stressors that we factor in our day to day life. For an example, when you are into an argument with your friend or got caught in a traffic jam, your body can still react as if you are confronting a life-or-death situation.
So when you repeatedly experience stress repose in your daily life, it can lead to serious health issues, like high blood pressure and blood sugar and other similar stress related ailments. Stress can upset your digestive system, kill your immunity, and increase the risk of heart attacks and stroke. Stress is at times also responsible for speeding up your ageing process, if the stress factors continue for a prolonged period of time.
Other health hazards exacerbated by stress are:
As we all are different, some of us are able to face the challenges of life, while many of us cannot and so often tend to crumble in the face of small obstacles. There are also many who even thrive on the excitement of a high-stressed lifestyle. Emotional awareness, the quality of your relationships and support network, your physical activity chart, your diet regime and your attitude and outlook that enhances stress tolerance and helps us to fight stress in our lives.

Syracuse, N.Y. (November 2001)—Gaylord Information Systems (GIS), a division of Gaylord Bros., Inc., today announced that the Paulding County Carnegie Library (Ohio) has selected the Polaris integrated library system for its next generation library automation solution.
To help fund the purchase of Polaris, the library received over $54,000 in Library Service and Technology Act (LSTA) federal funds distributed by the State Library of Ohio. "We are very excited about this new grant," said Susan Hill, library director. "Polaris is the next step our library has to take to progress into the future. Eventually we hope to build a coalition with other Polaris libraries throughout the state to make a vast number of resources available to our citizens.
The Paulding County Carnegie Library is upgrading to Polaris from Gaylord's GALAXY® system. In describing their decision to migrate to Polaris Hill said, " GIS has been serving our library for over a decade with the GALAXY system. We have been pleased and very satisfied with the service we've received.We are excited about the future of our library with the Polaris system and confident GIS will continue to meet our needs."
Paulding is the second GALAXY library in Ohio to migrate to Polaris."We are delighted that Paulding has joined the London Public Library in bringing Polaris to Ohio," said Katherine Blauer, president of GIS. "Susan Hill's enthusiasm for embracing new and innovative technology to better serve her library's patrons is quite contagious. We look forward to serving her staff and community for many years to come." Located in northwest Ohio, the Paulding County Carnegie Library serves a rural population of 20,000 through the main library in Paulding and branch libraries in the villages of Antwerp, Oakwood and Payne, Ohio. The library was established in 1916 with a grant from the Andrew Carnegie Foundation.
The Polaris integrated library system is currently installed in more than 180 libraries. The system features client/server design that supports wireless and thin client technologies; object-oriented programming that seamlessly links elements throughout subsystems; multi-tiered architecture that facilitates rapid development to adapt to new technologies; and graphical presentations for all aspects of the system, including the application software, operating system and network management facilities. Polaris was developed specifically for WindowsNT/2000 and can therefore take full advantage of all Windows functionality. In addition to advanced metasearching capabilities and enhanced content, Polaris 2.0 provides support for EDI X12 ordering, order acknowledgement, and invoicing using the latest standard (the 4010 enhanced standard); Z39.50 searching for authority records; and an interface to Unique Management Services for material recovery. Polaris 2.0 also includes numerous enhancements in all subsystems.
Gaylord Information Systems is a Microsoft Certified Solutions Provider and the 26-year-old software development division of Gaylord Bros., a leading supplier and innovator in the library industry for more than a century. More than 600 libraries nationwide use the GALAXY and Polaris integrated library systems. In addition to its library automation systems, GIS offers workflow analysis, retrospective conversion and database enhancement services to libraries of all types. Thirty percent of GIS staff are professional librarians, including GIS President Katherine Blauer.

Latest Badger Cull Death Toll Reaches 10,886
DEFRA revealed on Friday that 10,886 badgers have been killed this year in 10 different zones as a result of the government's badger cull policy, meaning that the total number of badgers killed since the start of the culls in 2013 has reached 14,829.
Animal charity Humane Society International/UK reacted angrily to the kill figures, calling it politically-motivated 'badgercide'.
Claire Bass, Director for Humane Society International/UK said: "Nearly 11,000 badgers have been shot in England since September this year, a staggering 14,829 badgers overall since the start of the culls, a shocking and grim death toll for this supposedly protected species. There is no evidence that shooting badgers reduces TB in cattle, in fact the vast majority of scientists agree that this approach actually increases the risk of spreading the disease. Shooting thousands of badgers, the majority of whom will not even have TB, is a costly distraction from the real solution to TB in cattle. The truth is, they could wipe out every badger in England, and farmers would still be dealing with TB in cattle: it's a disease of cattle, primarily spread by cattle, and it's cattle-focussed control measures that will stop it.
This enormous cull is completely at odds with public attitudes; across the country as people smile at a Christmas TV commercial with beloved badgers bouncing happily on a trampoline, in reality the government has sanctioned large-scale 'badgercide'. Since dismissing its own independent assessment panel, the government has avoided formal scrutiny and transparency, which is wholly inappropriate for venture costing millions of pounds of taxpayers' money. If we're truly a 'nation of animal lovers', and if we want to lay claim to a role as world leaders in animal welfare, this cruel and pointless cull must stop."
Want to Connect With Nature? Start by Disconnecting From Busyness
Have you ever found yourself staring at one of your (many) devices and feeling slightly disgusted with how much time you waste on technology? If so, you aren't alone. We all have moments like these and it's important that we use them as motivation to change – especially if we want to be more connected with nature.
How Busyness Impacts Your Connection With Nature
Whether you realize it or not, you live an ultra connected life. Between smart phones, tablets, computers, and wearable devices, you're never very far from some sort of technology that can connect you to the internet or put you in touch with other people. That's just the world we live in.
While it could be argued that this sort of omnipresent connectivity is a positive thing, it's also pretty clear that being permanently tethered to technology impacts our ability to strip away distractions and connect with nature.
When you're always within arm's reach of a device, you feel a sense of busyness. Whether it's browsing your social media feed, uploading a picture, reading the news, or responding to an email, there's always something to do. As someone who wants to spend more time in nature, this is problematic.
4 Practical Ways to Disconnect
If you want to truly connect with nature and live a greener lifestyle, you have to be proactive about finding ways to disconnect. Here are a few practical suggestions:
1. Switch to a New Phone Plan
It's not always practical to totally unplug from the world. Family and work responsibilities mean you can't go off the grid and continue to fulfill your responsibilities. Having said that, there are some ways to scale back.
One suggestion is to switch to a prepaid phone plan. When you have a prepaid phone plan, you're far less likely to spend hours and hours of your time making phone calls, sending texts, and surfing the web. It forces you to be more conscious of what you're doing.
2. Get Rid of Social Media
Social media is one of the biggest time wasters for most people. Whether you realize it or not, it's also a huge stressor. You're constantly being exposed to the best snapshots of everyone else's lives, which makes you feel like you're missing out on something (even when you aren't).
If you want to feel a sense of relief and free yourself up to spend more time in nature, get rid of social media. Don't just delete the apps off your phone – actually disable your accounts. It's a bold, yet necessary step.
3. Create Quiet Hours
If you aren't able to get rid of social media and disable various online accounts, the next best thing you can do is establish quiet hours each day where you totally detach from technology. You should do this for a minimum of three hours per day for best results.
4. Build Community
Do you know why we're drawn to social media and our devices? Whether consciously or subconsciously, it's because we all want to be connected to other people. But do you know what's better than connecting with people online? Connecting with them in person.
As you build real life, person-to-person relationships, you'll feel less of a need to constantly have your eyes glued to a screen. Connect with other people who have an appreciation for nature and bond over your mutual interests.
Untether Your Life
If you find yourself constantly connected to a device, then this is probably a clear indicator that you aren't living your best life. You certainly aren't enjoying any sort of meaningful connection with nature. Now's as good a time as any to untether your life and explore what a world free from cords, screens, and batteries is really like.
6 Tips for an Eco-Friendly Move
Moving can be a stressful and challenging time. No matter how many times you've done it in the past, the process of packing up, transporting, and unpacking isn't very fun. It's also not very eco-friendly. As you prepare for your next move, there are things you can do to ensure you leave less of a footprint behind.
6 Tips for a Greener Move
Because of the stress and pressure felt when moving, it's pretty common for people to rush through the process and focus on getting it done. In fact, a lot of people take an "at all costs" approach; they'll do whatever it takes to make the process as cheap and fast as possible. Don't be one of those people. It doesn't take much effort to turn a standard move into an eco-friendly move.
1. Maximize Each Trip
When moving across town, it's imperative that you make as few trips as possible. Each trip requires more gas, more emissions, and more waste, and more time.
If you're taking your personal vehicle, consider pulling a trailer behind it. You'd be surprised how much stuff you can fit into a small trailer. Not only will it make your move greener, but it'll also save you a lot of time.
2. Donate Things You Don't Want to Keep
The longer you live somewhere, the more junk you accumulate. This isn't always obvious until you start packing for a big move. Instead of bringing all of these things with you to your next home, get rid of the stuff you don't need! If the items are useful, donate them. If the items don't have much value, toss them.
3. Reuse Moving Boxes
Not only are moving boxes expensive, but they're also wasteful. If you need a bunch of cardboard boxes, consider looking around on Craigslist, asking friends, or checking the dumpsters behind stores. You can usually find a bunch of recycled boxes of all different shapes and sizes. Here are 12 places you can get them for free.
4. Get Creative With Packing
Who says you need moving boxes? You may find that it's possible to do most of your move without all that cardboard. Things like storage containers, trashcans, filing cabinets, buckets, and dressers can all store items. Blankets and sheets can be used in lieu of bubble wrap to prevent your items from getting damaged.
5. Use Green Cleaning Supplies
Once you arrive at your new place, resist the urge to pull out a bunch of harsh chemicals to clean the place. You can do yourself (and the planet) a favor by using green cleaning supplies instead. Ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, and ammonia are great to start with.
6. Forward Your Mail ASAP
Don't delay in forwarding your mail from your previous address to your new one. Not only is it wasteful for the Postal Service to route your mail to a place where you don't live, but the next owner is probably just going to toss your letters in the trash.
Moving Doesn't Have to be Wasteful
Most people only move once every few years. Some people will go a decade or more without a move. As a result, the process of moving often feels strange and new. The less experience you have with it, the less likely it is that you'll be as efficient as you should. But instead of just diving into the process blind, take some time to learn about what an eco-friendly move looks like. That way, you can leave behind the smallest footprint possible.

The new domains are largely unfinished, and are better explored through the Vine & Fig Tree Worldview page. Below is some personal background followed by "My Credo."
Be sure to check out the "10 Minute" version for background info.
Hobbies: Running for U.S. Congress
Our word "creed" comes from the Latin word credo, which means "I believe." Many people have penned their "credo." Here is Einstein's Credo, which isn't Christian. Here is Cornelius Van Til's, which is. That's the soil where my creed has roots.
Cornelius Van Til stands in the Reformed genealogy of Calvin, and the Dutch branch of Bavink and Abraham Kuyper. Van Til was one of the founding faculty of Westminster Seminary and homage is paid to him and J. Gresham Machen by the Orthodox Presbyterian Church, to which I once belonged, and was personally tutored for possible ordination in the OPC by Greg L. Bahnsen, a student of Van Til. Among Van Til's progeny are Francis Schaeffer, R.J. Rushdoony, and Rushdoony's son-in-law, Gary North. Van Til, Rushdoony and North are at the top of my list of favorite Christian authors. Van Til's book The Defense of the Faith is perhaps my #1 favorite book, though I've read and enjoyed all of Van Til. Likewise Rushdoony and North.
Perhaps Edith Schaeffer had more of an influence on me than Francis, and as much as Rushdoony. When How Should We Then Live came out, I saw the Schaeffers at a seminar in So. Calif., but never visited L'Abri in Switzerland. But I have always wanted to emulate their ministry. The closest I have come so far has been a decade at the Catholic Worker: Isaiah House in Santa Ana, Calif. L'Abri has always been the brass ring I've reached for. I've laid the foundation, but thus far haven't built the house.
The foundation of my credo is the "Vine & Fig Tree" vision of the Prophet Micah. Click the words that interest you for more detail.
We in 21st century America enjoy the highest standard of living in human history. This is a result of the Christianization of the world, relentless in its progress, though faster in some ages than others (it's slowed down in the last 100 years, by many standards). Micah's vision animated America's Founding Fathers. It must do so again. In the 20th century, secular empires murdered an average of 10,000 people per day, every single day during the last century. In America, an additional 4,000 babies are killed every day, many times more in China and the "former" Soviet Union -- 135,000 a day around the world. Literally billions of people in our day are separated from the Gospel by tyrannical atheistic or Muslim governments.
But Christians today are anesthetized by complacency and self-indulgence. They're waiting for "the rapture." Francis Schaeffer spoke of "personal peace and affluence."
My Credo is not just what I believe, but what I want to be. Many "heresy hunters" want to find out what I believe about the Trinity, or the mode of Baptism, but for me, orthopraxis is more important than orthodoxy.
So before we look at my doctrine, let's look at my practice. In a sense I believe that doctrine is more important than practice. A "real nice guy" who believes he is his own god is lost in a most fundamental sense. Even a person of the most extraordinary virtue is lost if he/she refuses to submit to the authority of God in the Bible. On the other hand, people often construct their theology to justify their morality. A man wants to cheat on his wife, so he comes up with a doctrine of God who says nothing about marriage. Show me a man's morality and I know a lot about his theology. So here is a summary of my morality.
First, I generally follow the view of the Protestant Reformers on the Ten Commandments. You can find the Reformers' view in the Exposition of the Ten Commandments in the Westminster Larger Catechism. My views can be found in a syllabus for a program I have taught in various schools, churches, and other venues, of which the following is an excerpt, with language often taken verbatim from the Catechism:
The First Commandment is, �thou shalt have no other gods before Me.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
Self-examination: Is my relationship with God broken because I am trying to be my own god (Genesis 3:5)?
The Second Commandment is, �thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth, thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me; and showing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me, and keep my commandments.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
Self-examination: Do I cover up my character defects with religion and false spirituality?
The Third Commandment is, �thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
Self-examination: Do I take the Lord�s Name in vain?
The Fourth Commandment is, �Remember the Sabbath-day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
Self-examination: Have I been working as I should, and am I able to rest, and trust God when I should?
The Fifth Commandment is, �honour thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
� Parents:
o your birth parents,
o your foster parents,
o your adoptive parents
� Superiors:
o your employer,
o your guard in jail
� Those who are talented and excel you in gifts and graces
o the guy who knows more about algebra than you do and sometimes helps you with your homework,
o and the guy who is much better than you are at basketball and continually insults you when you miss an easy lay-up.
� Those in authority over us:
� family
o your older brother,
o your aunts and uncles,
o grandparents
� church
o your priest or pastor,
� commonwealth
o your mayor,
o the police
o your popularly-elected president,
o your unelected totalitarian dictator
Self-examination: Have I been angry at my parents, employers, and other superiors, and is our relationship broken?
The Sixth Commandment is, �thou shalt not kill.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
Self-examination: Have I been willing to hurt other people to protect myself?
The Seventh Commandment is, �thou shalt not commit adultery.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
Self-examination: Do I lust and have impure thoughts and actions, and has this behavior adversely affected others?
The Eighth Commandment is, �thou shalt not steal.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
Self-examination: Have I cheated others to gratify myself?
The Ninth Commandment is, �thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
Self-examination: Have I lied to cover up my character defects, and have these lies adversely affected others?
The Tenth Commandment is, �thou shalt not covet thy neighbor�s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor�s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour�s.�
I acknowledge the Authority of this commandment to teach me:
Self-examination: Am I filled with resentment from envying the rich and coveting what I don�t have, and has this bitterness adversely affected others.
Having been personally tutored by R.J. Rushdoony, and strongly influenced by The Institutes of Biblical Law, his magnum opus, I would like to provide a list of some chapters in Rushdoony's Institutes. This helps show the social scope which I believe God's Law has:
I would like to summarize some of the practical implications of God's Law, which are briefly referred to in the section on the Law of God (chap 19). One way I advance the ideals contained in God's Law is by running for political office. Not that I ever expect to win, but simply as a platform or vehicle for propagating Biblical values, on radio, television, in debates, forums and town halls. Here is an excerpt from my campaign home page:
My goal is to develop the character of Christ in my life and others. Here are my thoughts and meditations on Godly character:
Here is another glimpse at my personal morality, in an A-Z listing of a few contemporary subjects:
|I Oppose
|I Support
Note: This list was one of the first pages I put on the internet. It hasn't been substantially altered in a decade. The character traits were spun off onto the character webpages above. I am adding links that explain these concepts and why I believe they are contrary to or commanded by God's Law. Please email your nagging and I'll get your favorite word linked ASAP.
OK, now we come to theological doctrines.
My background is Reformed Protestantism. This can be summed up with the "Five Solas of the Reformation":
Despite the obvious need for a new Reformation, I am sometimes asked about my conformity to the tenets of the old Reformation. Below is a short summary of each chapter of the Westminster Confession of Faith (1647) with my opinion of each and appropriate links to my webpages.
Here is an outline of my most obvious agreements and disagreements with the Westminster Confession of Faith, with links to the Extended Discussion below:
|CHAP. I - Of the Holy Scripture
I agree with all these chapters.
|CHAP. II - Of God, and of the Holy Trinity
|CHAP. III - Of God's Eternal Decree
|CHAP. IV - Of Creation
|CHAP. V - Of Providence
|CHAP. VI - Of the Fall of Man, of Sin, and of the Punishment Thereof
|CHAP. VII - Of God's Covenant with Man
|CHAP. VIII - Of Christ the Mediator
|CHAP. IX - Of Free Will
|CHAP. X - Of Effectual Calling
|CHAP. XI - Of Justification
|The old version of "justification by faith" has devolved into the crippling doctrine of "Justification by Belief Alone." I do not agree with this view, and I'm sure James would not either. I call my view "Justification by Allegiance."
|CHAP. XII - Of Adoption
I agree with all these chapters.
|CHAP. XIII - Of Sanctification
|CHAP. XIV - Of Saving Faith
|CHAP. XV - Of Repentance unto Life
|CHAP. XVI - Of Good Works
|CHAP. XVII - Of the Perseverance of the Saints
|CHAP. XVIII - Of Assurance of Grace and Salvation
|CHAP. XIX - Of the Law of God
|I adhere to the "theonomic" principle. There is debate as to whether the Westminster Confession advocates that principle.
|CHAP. XX - Of Christian Liberty, and Liberty of Conscience
|CHAP. XXI - Of Religious Worship, and the Sabbath Day
|I do not believe that Sunday is "the Sabbath." Seems to me that it should still be the seventh day. The eighth-day/first-day is the day of Resurrection, but not rest. But I do not know for sure if we are today required to observe one day of rest out of seven, whichever day that is, or whether we are in a perpetual sabbath rest.
|CHAP. XXII - Of Lawful Oaths and Vows
|Because I believe an oath must be made in the name of the Lord and cannot be "secular," the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals denied me a license to practice law in California, which now requires a secular oath. Details here.
|CHAP. XXIII - Of the Civil Magistrate
This is unquestionably one of the most controversial parts of "my credo." I believe socialism in all forms is immoral. I am very consistent in my opposition to socialism and defense of capitalism. This offends many people, who believe "the State" has the right to steal from Jones to give a subsidy to Smith, or to bomb a country "back to the Stone Age" in order to help XYZ Corporation build an oil pipeline. Most people will write me off as an "anarchist" without reading the links below.
|CHAP. XXIV - Of Marriage and Divorce
|CHAP. XXV - Of the Church
|I do not believe in anything that
resembles the Roman Catholic Church. In my opinion most "reformed
churches" are essentially Roman.
Given the irrelevance of the Confession in light of contemporary statism and mass murder (chap. 23), it is remarkable that the rest of the Confession -- 25% of the total chapters -- deals with ecclesiastical concerns.
|CHAP. XXVI - Of the Communion of Saints
|CHAP. XXVII - Of the Sacraments
|I do not believe in any "sacraments."
|CHAP. XXVIII - Of Baptism
|I believe "baptism" was a ceremonial sprinkling (not immersion) that expired with "the last days" of the Old Covenant.
|CHAP. XXIX - Of the Lord's Supper
|I do not believe we are required to continue observing Passover.
|CHAP. XXX - Of Church Censures
|See chapter 25
|CHAP. XXXI - Of Synods and Councils
|CHAP. XXXII - Of the State of Men after Death, and of the Resurrection of the Dead
|For all intents and purposes I am a "preterist." I think the prooftexts used by the Westminster Confession apply to events in AD70. I simply don't know what exactly will happen to any individual upon death. It doesn't matter to me, as I believe God is more merciful and more just than I can imagine. I am confident no alleged prophetic events (rapture, second coming, etc.) will happen in my lifetime. I believe it would be sinful to act as though "the second coming" had not already occurred.
|CHAP. XXXIII - Of the Last Judgment
Quite candidly there are many parts of the Westminster Standards that I think are more important than many chapters of the Confession itself. The Confession's latter chapters on ecclesiology and eschatology are defective, and the chapters on the "ordo salutis," while correct, are not as relevant in the 21st century as, say, the exposition of the Ten Commandments in the Larger Catechism, particularly the political application of the Sixth and Eighth Commandments. Much eschatological confusion could be clarified by ridding Christendom of the anti-christ doctrine of Christ's postponed Kingship as discussed in qq. 42-45 of the Larger Catechism.
I would also add that I feel the Anabaptists were more consistent reformers (and therefore less Romanist) than the "magisterial reformers."
A Chapter by Chapter Summary of the Primary Teachings of the Westminster Confession of Faith
Prepared by James E. Bordwine, Th.D.
|I will check this column if I am in basic agreement with the Confession.
|1. The Holy Scripture, given by the inspiration of God, is necessary because the works of creation and providence are not sufficient to give a saving knowledge of God.
|My views on the Bible in general.
|2. God's former methods of revelation have ceased now that the Church possesses the written Scripture.
|See "Propositions on Pentecostalism," by James B. Jordan.
|3. The Scripture's infallible authority depends solely upon the fact that God is its author, and only as the Holy Spirit bears witness by and with the Word in our hearts will we become fully persuaded of this truth.
|Why I Worship the Bible
|4. Everything necessary for God's glory, our salvation, faith and life is contained in the Scripture and nothing, at any time or for any reason, is to be added to it.
|How to interpret God's Law-Word
5. In all controversies of religion, the Church is to make final appeal to the Scripture, which, by God's providence, has been kept pure in all ages.
|Can Believers Criticize Church Councils?
|1. There is only one true God who is not dependent on any creature, but has all life, glory, goodness and blessedness in and of Himself.
|Total Sovereignty
|2. God exercises absolute dominion over all things and may do with them whatsoever He pleases and is due whatsoever worship, service or obedience He requires of His creatures.
|3. In the Godhead, there are three persons, the same in substance, equal in power and eternity.
|1. Although God has unchangeably foreordained whatsoever comes to pass and has predestinated some men and angels unto everlasting life and others to everlasting death, He has done so without becoming the author of sin or doing violence to the will of His creatures.
Proof that even our thoughts are predestined.
|2. Those of mankind whom God has predestinated unto life have been chosen in Christ and are effectually called by His Spirit, are justified, adopted, sanctified and kept by His power; the rest of mankind, from whom God has withheld His mercy, have been ordained to dishonor and wrath for their sin.
|1. In the space of six days, God created the world out of nothing.
|"The Facts" vs. The Faith
|2. Man, created in the image of God with the law of God written upon his heart, was left to the liberty of his own will having been commanded not to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Laws of Nature and of Nature's God
God created man to "exercise dominion" over the earth, which can also be described as "re-creating heaven on earth."
|1. The providence of God, whereby he governs all creatures and actions, extends to the first fall and all other sins of angels and men so that His own holy ends are accomplished; yet He is neither the author nor approver of sin.
|Providence in American History
|2. God sometimes allows His own children to be subjected to manifold temptations so that they might be chastised, humbled and drawn closer to Him.
|3. God blinds and hardens the wicked by withholding His grace, withdrawing the gifts which they have and giving them over to the power of Satan.
|1. Our first parents, having sinned in eating the forbidden fruit, fell from their original righteousness and communion with God.
|"To be as god"
|2. Because they were the root of all mankind, the guilt of this sin was imputed to all their posterity, along with the corruption of their nature from which proceeds all the sins which we commit.
|3. This corruption of nature, though pardoned and mortified through Christ, remains in the regenerate in this life.
a Christian be Perfect?
The Confession wants to distance itself from certain groups who have claimed to be sinless. These groups have not been sinless, and they have fudged on the requirements of God's Law in order to make their claim. But this does not prove anything about the new nature of the redeemed.
|1. God has condescended to man by way of covenant.
|2. The first covenant, a covenant of works, promised life in return for perfect obedience; the second covenant, the covenant of grace, freely offers life and salvation to man by Jesus Christ.
|Both Covenants require
perfect obedience; both covenants grant access to the Tree of Life by
grace alone. Some would criticize
|3. This covenant of grace, though differently administered in the Old and New Testament eras, is essentially one.
|1. The Mediator, in which are joined the Godhead and the manhood, was chosen and ordained by God and does, in time, redeem, call, justify, sanctify and glorify the seed given to Him from all eternity.
|2. The Son of God, who was God, of one substance and equal with the Father, did take upon Him the nature of man with all of its essential properties and infirmities, yet without sin, being conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit in the womb of the virgin Mary.
|3. In His role as Mediator, the Lord Jesus perfectly fulfilled the law, triumphed over death by His resurrection, fully satisfied the justice of His Father and purchased reconciliation and an everlasting inheritance for all those whom the Father has given to Him.
|4. All of those for whom redemption was purchased, including the elect who lived before the incarnation, have its benefits applied to them by Christ working through His Word and Spirit.
|1. Having been created with a will which was determined neither to good or evil, man, in his pre-fallen state, had the power to will and do that which was well pleasing to God.
|The Fall was
God works in the redeemed to will and to do His good pleasure. (Philippians 2:13)
|2. Fallen man is dead in sin, is unable to convert himself and can be freed from his natural bondage only when God translates him into the state of grace.
|1. By His Word and Spirit, and wholly of grace, God effectually calls all those predestinated unto life and translates them from sin and death to grace and salvation.
|2. Although others may experience some common operations of the Spirit, only the elect, including infants, truly come to Christ and are saved.
|1. God freely justifies the elect by imputing to them the obedience and satisfaction of Christ.
|2. Faith, which is the gift of God, is the alone instrument of justification.
|Saving Faith is allegiance.
|3. Although they may suffer the consequences of their sins in this life, those who are justified can never fall from the state of justification.
|By the grace of adoption, all those who are justified are made the children of God and fully enjoy all accompanying benefits.
|1. Upon regeneration, sin's dominion is broken and a process begins whereby the lusts of the flesh are gradually overcome.
|Can a Christian be Perfect?
|2. This process is incomplete in this life and remnants of sin remain; nevertheless, the working of the Spirit of Christ enables the regenerate to overcome and experience growth in his pursuit of holiness.
|1. The Spirit of Christ is responsible for the faith whereby the elect are enabled to believe and be saved.
|Saving Faith is allegiance.
|2. The principal acts of this saving faith are accepting, receiving and resting upon Christ alone for salvation.
|1. Repentance, which is an act of God's free grace, occurs when a sinner turns from his sin to God and, thereafter, determines to live according to His commandments.
|2. A general repentance is not satisfactory; we are to repent of particular sins particularly and, if necessary, by a private or public confession, declare our repentance to those that are offended.
|1. The Word of God alone determines what constitutes good works.
|The Origin of Greasy Grace
|2. The good works of believers, which are evidences of true faith, are produced by the Spirit of Christ.
|3. Good works, although essential, do not merit pardon of sin.
|4. Even though the good works produced by the Spirit are defiled by the believer's imperfection, they are, nevertheless, accepted in Christ.
|1. The elect, due to the immutability of God's decree, will persevere to the end and be eternally saved.
|2. The elect may, for a time, fall into grievous sins and suffer all the miseries which accompany such behavior.
|1. Believers in the Lord Jesus can be certainly assured that they are in the state of grace.
|2. This assurance rests upon God's promises, the evidences of His grace and the inward testimony of the Spirit.
|3. Although the assurance of believers may be shaken, in due time, it will be revived.
|As I mentioned above, I believe God's Law gives a practical blueprint for every area of life, and that following this blueprint is in many ways more important than many "doctrinal" disputes.
|1. The law given to Adam, by which he and his posterity were bound to absolute obedience, continued to be a perfect rule of righteousness even after the fall and was delivered by God in the form of the ten commandments.
|The difference between freedom and tyranny is God's Law. The difference between prosperity and poverty is God's Law. Every society that repudiates "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God" ends up in poverty under tyranny. I am a strong proponent of "Theonomy." I don't agree with every jot and tittle of a book by that title, but I am a strong proponent of God's Law. The Ten Commandments are a summary of laws which made America a great place to live.
|2. In addition to this moral law, God gave the people of Israel ceremonial laws, all of which are abrogated under the new testament, and judicial laws, which expired with that nation.
|We are still obligated to obey the "ceremonial laws." These laws can only be obeyed in Christ. (Christ is the Lamb, His people are the Temple, etc.)
|3. Although the judicial laws expired, the general equity of these statutes remains applicable.
|This is dangerous phraseology. Every one of the judicial laws is binding in the appropriate fact pattern (situation).
|4. God's law reveals His will and our duty and is, therefore, of great use to believers, as well as to others as a rule of life.
|The Bible is a blueprint for all humanity, whether Christian or not.
|1. Freedom from the guilt and dominion of sin, the wrath of God, the sting of death, etc. have all been purchased for believers by Christ.
|Can a Christian be Perfect?
|2. God alone is Lord of the conscience so that the believer is free from man-made rules and regulations.
|3. Christian liberty is no pretense for sin.
|1. The only acceptable way of worshiping God is that given in the Scriptures and requires the mediation of Christ.
|2. The ordinary parts of worship include prayer, the reading of the Scriptures, the sound preaching and conscionable hearing of the Word, the singing of psalms and the proper administration of the sacraments (to these may be added oaths, vows, fastings and thanksgivings upon special occasions).
|3. According to the commandment of God, which binds all men in all ages, one day in seven is to be kept holy unto Him during which men are to engage in the worship of God and the performance of deeds of necessity and mercy.
|I am agnostic on the issue of one-in-seven rest-days.
|1. An oath involves calling upon God, whose name ought to be used with all fear and reverence, to witness an assertion or promise.
in the Bible
The United States requires Americans to take an oath of infidelity.
|2. A vow, which is to be made to God alone and which must be in accordance with the Word, may be used to express thankfulness or to obtain what we want.
|Did Christ forbid the taking of all oaths?
|1. Civil magistrates have been ordained by God for the defense and encouragement of good and the punishment of evil.
This is unquestionably one of the most controversial parts of "my credo."
I believe in "the Free Market." Maybe you say you do too. I believe in pure laissez-faire capitalism. I'll bet you don't. I believe all forms of socialism are immoral. If you're like most Americans, you believe some forms of socialism are acceptable, even necessary. I don't believe any acts of theft or murder can be justified by majority vote. This means that I am technically an "anarchist" (or "anarcho-capitalist"). Christian anti-anarchism is a contradiction in terms.
During the 20th century more than 10,000 people were legally murdered each and every single day (on average) by civil magistrates around the world. All of these civil governments -- including that of the United States -- are overtly hostile to Biblical Christianity, and should be abolished entirely.
I realize that this position sounds nutty for a Christian. But nowhere in the Bible does God command human beings to form "the State," and everything "the State" does is a violation of God's Law. There is no legitimate function of "the civil magistrate" which God prohibits "the Free Market" from undertaking. It's time for a paradigm shift.
Those three links contain links to hundreds of webpages. This is, in my view, the most significant issue of our day. The issue is capitalism vs. socialism, life or death.
|2. Although civil magistrates are forbidden to encroach upon the authority of the Church, they are obligated to protect the Church so that she may freely discharge her duties, without giving preference to any particular denomination of Christians.
|3. The people are obligated to pray for and obey the magistrates regardless of the magistrates' religious orientation.
|1. Marriage, which is to be between one man and one woman, was ordained for the mutual help of husband and wife.
|I generally agree with Bill Gothard on courtship, marriage and divorce.
|2. It is the duty of the godly to avoid being unequally yoked with the wicked in marriage.
|3. The bond of marriage may not be legitimately dissolved except in cases of adultery or wilful desertion.
|1. The invisible Church is composed of the whole number of the elect; the visible Church is composed of all those who profess the true religion, along with their children.
|2. It is the duty of the visible Church to gather and perfect the saints.
|3. The purity of particular Churches is determined by the manner in which they handle the Gospel, administer the sacraments and perform public worship.
|4. Jesus Christ is the alone head of the Church.
|I disagree with nothing thus far stated (in the summary at left), but our meanings diverge significantly. I am for all intents and purposes "anti-church."
|As we enter the 21st century, we recognize that this teaching of the confession is utterly wrong. The "orthodox" position in "reconstructionist" circles is the preterist interpretation.
|1. The saints share in Christ's graces, sufferings, death, resurrection and glory; likewise, they share in each other's gifts and graces and are obligated to pursue their mutual edification.
|2. The saints' communion with Christ does not make them partakers of the substance of the Godhead; nor does their communion with one another set aside the right to the private ownership of goods.
It would be fair to say that I am in substantial disagreement with the remainder of the Confession.
|1. Sacraments are signs and seals of the covenant of grace which represent Christ and His benefits to believers.
|2. The efficacy of a sacrament depends solely upon the work of the Spirit and the word of institution.
|3. Only two sacraments, Baptism and the Lord's Supper, have been ordained by Christ in the Gospel.
|Both baptism and passover were old testament ordinances.
|{4} There be only two sacraments: neither of which may be dispensed by any, but by a minister of the Word lawfully ordained
|Baptism and passover were properly administered house-by-house without a seminary-trained "ordained" clergyman.
|1. Through the sacrament of baptism, which signifies the engrafting of the believer into Christ, and which is rightly administered by the pouring or sprinkling of water, the party is admitted into the visible Church.
|Immersion was not Biblical. (Heb. 9:10,13,19,21)
|2. All who profess faith in Christ, and their infant children, are to be baptized.
|Paedobaptism is more Biblical than professors'-only baptism.
|3. Even though grace and salvation are not inseparably attached to the sacrament of baptism nor to the moment of its administration, that which is signified will be conferred by the Holy Spirit to all to whom it is due at the appointed time.
|1. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper was instituted by Christ Himself as a sealing ordinance and means of grace and is to be observed in His Church until the end of the age.
|But when is "the end of the age?" (off-site)
|2. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper reminds us of Christ's sacrifice of Himself but does not involve any real sacrifice itself.
|3. The elements of bread and wine are to be set apart by the declaration of the words of institution and prayer, but are not to be worshiped or adored.
|4. The doctrine of transubstantiation is contrary to the teaching of Scripture, common sense and reason.
|5. Those who partake of the sacrament of the Lord's Supper in a right manner do receive and feed upon Christ crucified after a spiritual manner.
|Those who deny Passover to baptized children are illogical.
|1. Jesus Christ has established a government for His Church in the hands of officers who have the power to grant or deny admission to the kingdom.
|We are all priests and kings
|2. Church censures, consisting of admonition, suspension and excommunication, serve to reclaim erring brethren, deter others from similar offences and maintain the purity of the Gospel and the Church.
|1. Synods and councils ought to be convened occasionally as the good of the Church requires.
|2. The determinations of synods and councils, which are ecclesiastical in nature, ought to be received as long as they are in agreement with the Word of God; however, it should be remembered that all such assemblies are subject to error.
|Can Believers Criticize Church Councils?
|1. At the time of death, the body begins to decay, but the soul, being immortal, returns immediately to God whereupon the righteous are received into heaven and the wicked are cast into hell.
|I am agnostic on matters pertaining to the individual after death. I trust God to be both merciful and just.
|2. At the last day, those who are alive shall be changed and the souls of the dead shall be reunited to their bodies; the unjust to dishonor and the just to honor.
|1. On an appointed day, God will judge the world, including apostate angels, by Jesus Christ who will require an account of every thought, word and deed.
|I am agnostic on this issue, especially as regards timing. I disagree with the application of several verses used to support these ideas.
|2. The purpose of this day is for the manifestation of God's mercy, in the salvation of the elect, and of His justice, in the damnation of the reprobate.

Let's Go On a Batty Adventure!
2012 is the official year of the bat
The Spark:
What's up with bats? People have a lot of wrong ideas about bats. Here are some examples... Bats are blind. Bats like to fly in people's hair. Bats are just flying vampires in disguise and they will swoop down on you and suck your blood.
Get the facts straight! Bats are actually highly beneficial animals. Bats are experts at finding food in the night. They are nocturnal animals, a.k.a. night flyers. Bats can see just fine. They get around by echolocation- they send out squeaks, clicks, and buzzes and listen for their echoes when the sound bounces back. If you have bats around, pesky insects will stop bugging you. Within one hour, a bat can eat up to six hundred mosquitos so don't be so quick to evict these eco friendly pest controllers.
Bats live all over the world except in extremely cold climates. They are crucial members of all ecosystems. Many plants and trees depend on bats to pollinate and dispense seeds such as fruit trees and flowers. Without bats we would have much less food to eat.
Bat droppings, called guano, are super-rich in nitrogen, a main ingredient in plant food. It is great for fertilizer for crops and is used in farming today.
Vampire bats don't attack humans. They don't suck blood either. Vampire bats in South America, bite farm animals, then deposit a substance that keeps blood flowing. In fact, their spit may save lives. The substance in the saliva of vampire bats that keeps blood flowing is twenty times stronger than anything else like it. It may be able to help humans with serious health problems like heart attacks and strokes.
Bats are the only mammals that can truly fly.
Watch this amazing bat in flight!

Islamic architecture is stunningly intricate, and the White Mosque in Abu Dhabi is a prime example. The walls boast elegant arches and abstract organic and geometric patterns in relief. The exterior architecture boasts elegant curvilinear elements echoed by the designs on the floor. Figurative depiction is frowned upon thus one hardly sees the human figure in Islamic art. The serpentine line is another defining characteristic, and it influenced the highly decorative Art Nouveau style.
Again, the UAE reveals itself to be a land of seemingly contradictory juxtapositions. Ancient mosques can be found not too far from futuristic, gleaming skyscrapers. Houses in sandy pink hues rise from the ground, becoming a natural part of the desert landscape. Dusty, pastel hues like baby blue and pale rose contrast with hot, saturated colours like vermillion. Strangely, the whole mishmash of aesthetics somehow works.

The Black Reef refers to a scenic coastline of Dalian city, Liaoning Province, China. The reef was formed millions of years ago. The coast was shaped by the dissolution of limestone by ocean waves and surface water. It is a typical karst landscape. It was known as the "Stone Forest on the Sea." But recently, as people reclaimed land indiscriminately, the exposed rocks are getting destroyed, and marine species are declining sharply.
Sirui Wang is a leader of Black Reef Coast conservation movement. He is part of the anti-poaching campaign to save migratory birds of East Asia. He is also a nature interpreter at Dalian Natural History Museum.

Explores the way government policy and popular responses to immigrant groups have evolved throughout U.S. history, from 1800 to today. - (Baker & Taylor)
A history of how immigration has shaped America explores the ways government policies and popular responses to immigrant groups have evolved in the country, particularly between 1800 and 1965, and includes a profile of how today's immigration has become a hot-button issue. - (Baker & Taylor)

A 2017 YALSA Excellence in Nonfiction finalist!

 American attitudes toward immigrants are paradoxical. On the one hand, we see our country as a haven for the poor and oppressed; anyone, no matter his or her background, can find freedom here and achieve the "American Dream." On the other hand, depending on prevailing economic conditions, fluctuating feelings about race and ethnicity, and fear of foreign political and labor agitation, we set boundaries and restrictions on who may come to this country and whether they may stay as citizens. This book explores the way government policy and popular responses to immigrant groups evolved throughout U.S. history, particularly between 1800 and 1965. The book concludes with a summary of events up to contemporary times, as immigration again becomes a hot-button issue. Includes an author's note, bibliography, and index.

Remember to keep your sense of humor throughout conversations with your child – the conversation doesn't have to be tense and uncomfortable unless you make it that way. Here is an additional list of some important things to remember throughout your interactions with your teen regarding the topic of sex. This list includes some additional tips and advice not covered in the previous sections Delusions and Hallucinations in Old Age lifeunabridged.com. One might expect that this would mean that childless men would be the most likely to live in residential care at some point in their later years; however, the fact that women are more likely to be childless, combined with their longer life expectancy, means that childless women are more likely than childless men to live in residentialcare facilities at some point online. Research examining how the family serves as a context for the expression of genetic influences on health and psychological well-being of relevance to aging is necessary for a more complete picture of aging processes. Research on genetic effects on mate selection and the implications of mate selection and assortative mating for future generations is also encouraged The Story of My Father: A Memoir http://newyorkcanes.com/library/the-story-of-my-father-a-memoir.

Where the priority of an earlier application is claimed for a Euro-PCT application, the IB sends a copy of the priority document to the EPO if the IB received the priority document from the receiving Office or directly from the applicant or was able to retrieve it from a digital library. As a rule the applicant should file a copy with the receiving Office or the IB or request the receiving Office or the IB that the copy be retrieved from a digital library within 16 months from the (earliest) priority date (see point 139).
OJ 2007 Spec.Ed. 3, A.3; 2009, 182, 187
In the cases listed below, the EPO as designated/elected Office will include a copy of the priority application free of charge in the file of a Euro-PCT application even without having received a copy from the IB.

This service is provided on condition that the applicant has informed the EPO of the application number and only if the priority application is:
a European patent application;
an international application filed with the EPO as receiving Office;
a Chinese patent or utility model application;
a Japanese patent or utility model application;
a Korean patent or utility model application;
a United States provisional or non-provisional patent application.

text: Okay, I'm not sure how this would work. So feel free to say yes or now and why not, etc. I have the old system setup where two lines are feeding both of my HD DVRs. When the guy came out to hook up my equipment, he was going to do SWM but didn't because I have to use flat cables coming through my windows. This causes the flat cables to be in some kind of square "U" shape. The tech said my service will be fine if I don't keep opening and closing the window. He said SWM would like the setup at all I guess. So my window has stayed shut. Now...on to the MoCA question. Both of my receivers are by coax jacks in my place. There is only one splitter on the line. So, one external line coming in and splitting off feeding each room. Would I be able to buy a MoCA networking kit and have each adapter by each receiver and use my home's coax wiring to connect the two adapters so I can have MRV that way while the two lines from the dish continue to feed the tuners? In the case that it would work, the receivers have two ethernet ports....if one was being used for the MoCA adapters, would the other port be able to be used for a wireless internet connectivity to my home network? Also, the link below shows an example of what adapters I'm talking about. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...&item=N82E16833122243&nm_mc=OTC-C173T&Local=y I'm not an expert in MoCA setups so if this wouldn't work...lol, don't laugh at me. I'm kicking ideas around in my head. I hope I make sense of what I'm considering.

No one could ever dispute the beauty of Prague. What an amazing city.
The political, cultural and economical centre of the Czech Republic for over 1,000 years, Prague is now one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, falling behind the cities of London, Paris, Rome, Madrid and Berlin as the sixth most visited European city. Prague is a much smaller city than the others though and as a result, the hordes of tourists swelling into the cobbled streets and onto Charles Bridge can be overwhelming, particularly in the peak summer season. The historic centre of Prague, comprising the Old Town (Staré Město), the Lesser Quarter (Malá Strana) and the New Town (Nové Město) was added to the UNESCO World Heritage list in 1992.
Prague consists of fifteen districts, numbered from Praha 1 to Praha 15. Praha 1 is the oldest part of the city and the area where more travellers spend their time. Praha 1 can be further divided into the following five areas:
- Old Town (Staré Město).
- The Lesser Quarter (Malá Strana).
- New Town (Nové Město).
- Jewish Town (Josefov).
- Castle (Hradčany).
Our personal highlights include:
Astronomical Clock (Orloj) – It was designed and built before it was found out that the earth circles the sun. Thus it is not accurate. Still it does toll every hour with a display of wooden saints "conducted" by the clock's skeleton. Some Prague schoolchildren are taught how to read this clock, though many have forgotten it by the time they are out of school. It is located in Old Town Square.
Church of Our Lady Victorious (Kostel Panny Marie Vítězné) – This church is the first Baroque church in Prague and home of the Infant of Prague, a small wax statue believed by some to have blessing and healing powers. It is common for devotees to construct intricate garments for the Infant and many of these are on display at the church. Admission is free, unlike many of the churches in Prague.
Old Town Square (Staroměstské náměstí) – Located in Old Town this square was the home of the city's marketplace during medieval times and still today is the center of much activity.
For the summer and literary lovers, the "Summer Shakespeare Festival" is coming up:
This is often the highlight of the Czech events calendar, a two-month long celebration of arguably the finest playwright who ever lived. From June until September, Prague Castle is home to a series of performances which take place in the stunning Burgrave Palace courtyard.

Meeting grannies for sex in south africa - Cinema Mature Tube Horny Giant Booby
Posted: 09 Mar 2017, 13:27
Author: UzaxiEthnonational character is shifting and acts out of necessity Outside of this, defining African has no merits. The current and most progressive theory is to re-educate these people to give them an understanding of themselves. As much as race is biological nonsensical, it is also the reason why you didn't get that job, it is the reason immigration took 10 minutes with your passport, it is the reason why your film didn't make it into Sundance. Black Africa, Dark Continent, Heart of Darkness all articulate the colonial contempt for a continent and its people. Du Bois was right when he said: "We cannot if we are sane, divide the world into whites, yellows, and Blacks, and then call Blacks white." He might have said that it would be equally as strange to call them "Mediterranean "Hamitic or a hundred. So the only real difference between the four ladies (in the above photo) is political. Just as consciousness via music and revolution has created a global Pan-African identity. 6 The Apex race, the white race, is happy allowing Europeanization of the subaltern but never giving permanent membership to anyone non-white, regardless of how Europeanize those oppressed people become. For it is unnatural to act in the image of those who oppressed you. David Commissiong, the formation of a race-identity is necessary for the authentic notion of ones community as an autonomous agent. And like a name specifically is used to separate and speak to certain individuals in a group, so to race has this function in a society deeply influenced by racial origin. Actually one of the greatest percentage of genetic difference.176 between Nigerians and Australian Aborigines (Nei and Arun. It is not concerned with African clothing - but with Western designer garments worn low. Thus, African people have the greatest genetic diversity. Black OR african Twenty-two million African-Americans - that's what we are - Africans who are in America El Hajj Malik Shabazz See full Article Language for a New African Reality Black is a construction which articulates a recent social-political reality of people of color (pigmented. What we will find is that many of the arguments are seen to not be race, but more ethnic. The first shocking one being no group identified as Moors, called themselves Moors. But Africans, as diverse ethnic groups, still all have a unique history and culture that cannot be lost must not be lost. The placement of these people in the African world is debatable. Dilemma OF ethno-identity A nation is a group of persons united by a common error about their ancestry and a common dislike of their neighbors Thus Karl Deutsch Every nation's origins are rarely carved in the hard rock of reality, more so in the brazen. Africa or Ifri or Afer is name of Banu Ifran from Algeria and Tripolitania Berber Tribe of Yafran. Because none of them identified with any group larger than their own terms of self-identity. What changes, is the degree of accuracy that this can be done. . So the notion of Blackness in the Du Bois construction of double consciousness can actually be largely an identity created by the other. Being African is not a virtue, which equals righteousness, it is just a human sociological/political grouping. The expression continued to expand in a Eurocentric environment of extreme oppression which shaped, and influenced the African culture. To be culturally African is to possess a distinctive culture, which has its values and orientation in the indigenous cultures of Africa. Seeing beyond color does not change the 'strange' fact that all those at the top are European, those in the middle are Indian and those at the absolute bottom serving as the labor pool are the African. An X increase in African cleaners is not the increase we are discussing. The term Black people has no function in any debate beyond European enslavement, it has only been a name imposed by "the other." Black pride is reactionary pride, necessary then, irrelevant now. The old theory of the darker, you were the more African you were is now buried as a plantation tale to create the self-hating slave. So already, in the trial of the Race of Egypt we have a problem and an case for intent to distort whatever evidence is turned. This expansion displaced many other "types" of Africans, such as the so-called pygmy people ( Baka ) of the Cameroon who are much smaller in stature and much lighter in complexion. Therefore the argument "yes it is in Africa, but it is not Black African." It is almost like saying Greece was a European civilization, but not a White European civilization.

Police responding to fight at Tucson home find couple dead
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Tucson police are investigating the deaths of a man and woman involved in an incident of domestic violence.
Police spokeswoman Kimberly Bay says officers in the city's midtown area responded around 6:15 p.m. Saturday to a report of a couple arguing outside a home.
Bay says the fight became physical as officers were arriving.
Police were unable to immediately locate both people. They then found evidence that at least one person was injured.
Bay says the officers then went inside and found both dead with obvious signs of trauma.
Police are treating the incident as a homicide and say there are no outstanding suspects.
Bay did not release further details.
