A common teaching among Christians is that "all our righteous acts are as filthy rags" (Isaiah 64:6) however, please look at the context of this verse:
The first question we must ask is who is the "WE" that Isaiah is referring to?
Clearly the "WE" here is referring to those in desperate need of Teshuva (repentance-turning to YHWH), it is a generic "we" that is addressing the rebellious contingent of Israel.
"we are all as an unclean thing", but the Israel of Elohim is called to be a Kedoshim (Set Apart People) and tahor (clean), whereas being unclean refers to being separated from YHWH.
"Our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away"... AWAY FROM YHWH! The sad fact is that many Christians are a LONG ways away from YHWH, yet they will debate and fight to uphold religious traditions so as to break Torah and scorn the Set Apart Name of YHWH and His Mashiyach!
Isaiah is making an appeal to YHWH on behalf of backslidden Israel, none of the "we" calls on the Name of YHWH or stirs himself up to take hold of YHWH. The "we" are unregenerate people who have NOT TURNED FROM CARNAL LIFESTYLES!!! It could not be MORE CLEAR yet most Christians are willfully ignorant of the context of this Scripture and twist it to suggest that it is ok to continue in sin and believe they are "saved by Grace", while they helplessly continue in helpless sin!!! It's very pathetic what Christianity is doing, isn't it? To use a Scripture like this to teach that it is ok to keep on sinning in one's "filthy rags"!
Isaiah goes on to describe some of the things that "we" do that angers YHWH.
I am sought of them that asked not for me;
YHWH's people are looking to all different forms of religion, to deities, gurus, or to mysticism in an effort to connect with the One True Creator and Father, whose Name is YHWH, who alone is Elohim (Mighty One).
I am found of them that sought me not:
YHWH reveals Himself to those were not looking for Him, many were calling out to other deities, they were in confusion believing that there are many gods, or that they are gods but because they were searching and open to find the path of life and truth, they found Him!
I said, Here I AM, Here I AM, unto a nation that did not call on My Name.
YHWH seeks those who even call on the names of other deities, because they have come from generations of religious and non-religious backgrounds where they never had access to know YHWH or call upon His Name.
I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walks in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
Although YHWH's true people are scorning the truth, they do it because they are ignorant, but He still reaches out to them and brings His prophets and witnesses into their lives so they have opportunity to learn the truth and turn from shallow worldly materialistic lifestyles into a solid and healthy relationship with YHWH and His Mashiyach.
A people that provokes me to anger continually to my face; that sacrifices in gardens,
The actions of this people are set against YHWH and the Malchut Elohim, "sacrifices in gardens" refers to adopting the practices of Paganism and Hellenism, which is worldly and by making materialistic gods or claiming identities and values that are pleasing to man which is simply another form of modern idolatry. The provocation by the people is that they are self sufficient in themselves, but in fact they are totally dependant each second on YHWH for Life, but don't see it.
and burns incense upon altars of brick; Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments,
People make prayers to and about the dead, and put up monuments to men and deities, some even collect cash and make monetary profits by praying for dead relatives. This is wickedness! They burn incense upon alters of brick which means they make prayers in the names of other deities which they have made into an institution, the brick symbolizes a deeply entrenched "theology" that is used as an authority to offer up prayers for their dead.
which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
They purposely eat unclean, un-Kosher foods which are abominable to YHWH, some Christians even teach others that YHWH said it's good to dine on swine, they eat the scavengers of the oceans, the scavengers of the land and air which were never given by YHWH as food. Even from the time of Noach there was a distinction between clean and unclean animals, but today YHWH's people live and eat like modern intellectual "civilized" barbarians with the finery of Babylon's foods which they say is good, when it is not good... (chemical, processed and gmo foods are also an abomination to YHWH who says He will destroy those who destroy the earth)
Which say, Stand by Yourself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou.
Man's religion has placed itself above the Authority of the Word of YHWH, by so doing many have declared themselves "holier" than YHWH. To teach it's ok to eat pork or unclean foods when YHWH says NO, is one-up-man-ship against the Word of YHWH and being "holier" than YHWH. To teach that it's ok to observe Shabbat on any day of the week, when YHWH says we are to sanctify the Seventh Day and keep it Holy is one-up-man-ship against the Word of YHWH and His Authority. To teach it is ok to use titles or names for YHWH and His Mashiyach, when YHWH says not do to this, is one-up-man-ship against the Word of YHWH and is being "holier" than YHWH. Mankind is mocking YHWH every time they impose their own religious ideals and nullify the Word of YHWH, there has been a prolonged attack against simple obedience to the Word of YHWH. Religious people mock those who prefer to live a simple life and apply the Word of YHWH according to literal and distinct Torah directives.
These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all the day." Isaiah 65:1-5
YHWH clearly designates the rebellious element by-their-actions. It is very telling of those who claim their "righteous acts are as filthy rags" and who continue in their acts of rebellion as is stated in these verses.
The prophet Isaiah is one the most prophetic voices about HaMashiyach, Apostle Paul quotes Isaiah some 29 times in his letter to the Romans. To understand Paul and the book of Romans one must understand Isaiah in the context of the Malchut (Kingdom) Elohim. It is imperative that we walk with our Torah Mashiyach on the inside, and that WE DO HIS RIGHTEOUS ACTS by the Grace He has given us. The issue is NOT who gets the credit for acts of righteousness, the point is that our actions must be done IN THE NAME OF YHWH and HIS MASHIYACH not in our own name. Outward acts of religion are a stench to YHWH if one does not have a pure heart before Him, but for theologians to claim that all of our acts are as filthy rags is very telling of what is going on in the hearts of these theologians.
The people of YHWH must not be deluded into believing that all acts of righteousness are as filthy rags. Unless someone has willfully chosen to rebel against YHWH and His Word, the people of YHWH will NOT continue to live in what YHWH's prophets call "filth". People who are ignorant of what Mashiyach has died for are much better off, because YHWH will wink and overlook many things, but those who teach that Yeshua came to do away with Torah, do away with the Standard of Righteousness are liars and false prophets.
Now is the time that YHWH's people must stand with haMashiyach and His Torah, darkness is rapidly increasing in this world as Mashiyach and the Prophets of YHWH all stated. The question is, will you live according to the Word of YHWH and do Torah, or follow a multitude to do evil? Will you Sanctify the Name of YHWH and His Word or will you make life "easy" on yourself and live in a manner that relatives, co-workers and church people will accept you because you are making all sorts of compromises.
We must never forget that the anti-Messiah is the lawless one, hasatan is without Torah and without righteousness. For those who would point their fingers at those who observe Torah and call us "legalists" for upholding the Word of YHWH, they make themselves by their own testimonies "illegalist". "Illegalists" are illegitimate and "without Torah", they are lawless. We must each choose one or the other, we can't have both, we cannot be upholding Torah and trashing Torah at the same time. HaMashiyach came so that we would have life, and have life abundantly, this means HaMashiyach in us the Hope of Glory, makes His home inside of us, according to HIS Righteousness, not our own. The Righteousness of Mashiyach is revealed in Torah, because Mashiyach is the WORD of YHWH made flesh, therefore all who follow Mashiyach must also permit the Torah to be written upon their hearts. The CHARACTER of Y'shua must be birthed in us by the Work of the Ruach HaKodesh. Right now is the acceptable time to repent for violating Torah and come out of Babylon, Isaiah said.
"For the vineyard of YHWH OF HOSTS is the house of Israel,
and the men of Judah his pleasant plant:
and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression;
for righteousness, but behold a cry."
Isaiah 5:7
YHWH looks as much for righteousness among His People today as He did before HaMashiyach came to suffer for us, in fact much more so now! We are supposed to be Transformed into the Image of Elohim! B'resheet (Genesis) 1:27 states that we are made in His image to be like Him and have Him life inside of us by His Spirit.
But YHWH of Hosts shall be exalted in judgment,
and Elohim Who is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.
Isaiah 5:16
We are to sanctify Him in our hearts by choosing to obey YHWH as would a child obey his father. We are to sanctify Him on His terms, not our own terms.
Which justify the wicked for reward,
and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!
Isaiah 5:23
How is that the wicked are able to "take away the righteousness of the righteous?", it must because they teach and do against what is righteous and cause others to follow their unrighteousness. False humility would say that no one is or can be righteous, BUT YHWH commands that His people be righteous unto Him and that if we turn to Him He will rain righteousness upon us. Righteousness comes about from doing actions in HaMashiyach that please YHWH, "old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new".
Hear me when I call, O Elohim of my righteousness:
You have enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
O you sons of men, how long will you turn my glory into shame?
how long will ye love vanity, and seek after lies? Selah
But know that YHWH has set apart him that is righteous for Himself:
YHWH will hear when I call unto him.
Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in YHWH.
Psalm 4:1-5
Sacrifice and offering You did not desire; mine ears have You opened: burnt offering and sin offering have You not required. Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me, I delight to do Your will, O my Elohim: yes, Your Torah is within my heart. I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O YHWH, You know. I have not hid Your righteousness within my heart; I have declared Your faithfulness and Your salvation: I have not concealed Your loving kindness and Your truth from the great congregation.
Psalm 40:6-10
"Sow to yourselves in righteous acts, reap in mercy;
break up your fallow ground:
for it is time to seek YHWH,
till He come and rain righteousness upon you."
Hosea 10:12
Amen ve Amen!
Shalom U'Vrachot,
YHWH be with you,
Baruch Ben Daniel
I want to leave you seekers of the Faith Once Delivered with this one last verse that says:
If we have forgotten the name of our Elohim,
or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
Shall not Elohim search this out?
for He knows the secrets of the heart.
Psalm 44:20-21
The Hebrew word for "forgotten" is shakach which could also be translated as "ignore" or "cause to forget". In reality, religious and secular theologies have caused the multitudes to forget the Name of YHWH, literally by placing a ban on His Name and by elevating the religions of men. The promise is that YHWH will search this out Himself, He will seek those who seek Him, so if you're here reading, studying and praying about your walk in Mashiyach it's because you are being called to walk in righteousness. I pray you will leave behind the ways of religions that make excuses for the weak flesh and not deny yourself the Work of Mashiyach in you, so that Torah may be written upon your heart.

02-05 October 2012, Izmir, Turkey
Inland fisheries and aquaculture in the Central Asian (CA) countries, i.e. Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan has dramatically decreased since the independence of these countries from the former Union of the Soviet Socialist Republics in the early 1990s. Limited management of the resources, lack of policies, limited capital investments, outdated technical know-how and low institutional capacity are main reasons why the regional inland fisheries and aquaculture production has not gained any momentum since 1990s despite the large potential available in these countries. These negative factors in the CA countries decreased the total aquaculture based production up to 9.000 mt and its value up to 5 million USD. Similarly total consumption of fish and fish products decreased up to 0.3-4.7 kg per capita according to FAO 2007 and 2010 statistics.Read full Introduction.

The Freeborn County Sheriff's Office received a call reporting a house fire shortly before 3 p.m. at 19635 620 Ave.
When deputies and firefighters arrived, they found the attached garage engulfed. The fire spread to the house before firefighters were able to put it out.
The homeowner and his family were home at the time of the fire but no one was hurt.

Sunderland 1-3 Arsenal: Rambo Completes Rescue Mission
In the aftermath of the equaliser, with Sunderland enjoying an ominous (and first) period of sustained pressure, it occurred to me that this match might be part of some elaborate induction exercise for young Mr Ozil. "So the way it works up North is, once we're a goal up, cruising, it's foot off the gas time, concede at the least opportune moment – ideally with a touch of tragicomic flair – and then panic stations. Got that? Wunderbar."
Before the game kicked off I'd been feeling fairly confident, in large part based on Sunderland's parlous start to the season. Nagging away at that confidence, though, was the stat doing the rounds that only Fulham had allowed more shots on target than Arsenal so far this season.
Having watched today's game it's easy to see why. Sunderland took a whopping 18 shots today, but only three of those were on target. We managed 14 – but, of those, six were on target and – here comes the crucial bit – three ended up in the net. So I suppose the story is their woeful finishing and our extra quality. Certainly I wouldn't want to have to ride the kind of luck we used today against better sides, but given the injury situation these are three vital points that put a healthy glow on the start to the season.
I've got some serious business to attend to this weekend, but here are some other brief musings.
Winning seven league games away from home in a row…
…Is no mean feat. Plenty of people have observed that there's a new seriousness about this squad, and certainly there aren't many – any? – previous sides in the Emirates era who could've put this sort of run together. Given that it looks like there's still plenty of room for individual development, the overall prospects are exciting.
Mertesacker and Arteta are the footballing equivalent of antacid
In that they seem able to calm even the most roiling stomachs. (I use calm here in the context of watching Arsenal ever being calm – i.e. very comparatively.) Without those two there just doesn't seem to be the organisation or leadership required to manage games into a state of inertness. I look to Flamini as the veteran in midfield to provide that sort of guidance, but it takes more than just pointing and shouting. Fortunately, today Rambo stepped up with a match-leading seven out of eight tackles won, and a superb brace.
Rambo hasn't just found his old form. He's superseded it
In adding goals to his game, and crucial ones today, Ramsey isn't becoming the player he was, he's on the verge of becoming the one we hoped he'd develop into. Two very different finishes today, both of which required tremendous technique – and I actually think I preferred the second. It might have been less spectacular, but the movement, control, and calmness were all so assured that I actually initially thought it was Ozil. (Oh the joy of streams.) There isn't a Mouse Man of the Match award, but if there were, Rambo would all sorts of be it tonight.
Sunderland's ghost goal
Is the sort of thing we'd be livid about had it gone against us. If Atkinson saw Sagna as fouling Altidore, then why he didn't play advantage when the Sunderland man burst away is bizarre. Watching the Hawkeye tech in action against Villa, I wondered how long it'd be before it got used for a genuinely debatable incident. Had it been called on today, as it should have been, it would have confirmed the shot had crossed the line. Strange stuff then, particularly considering that Sagna's foul was surely one that by definition denied a goalscoring chance. Worth bearing in mind next time we're feeling hard done by.
Martin Atkinson and Arsenal
Prior to today, with Atkinson in charge we'd won none of our last five league games (three draws, two losses). It's the kind of stat that sends shivers down Arsenal fans' spines. But honestly I'm going to try to ignore that sort of thing this season. I'm no conspiracy theorist, particularly when we're talking about small sample sizes and without the precise context of each result, so I try to ignore that kind of record now. In any case, certainly no complaints about the pen today.
Kos needs to calm down
Or at least he does if all the 'world class' proclamations aren't going to look silly. After his early sending off against City last year I called him, perhaps slightly harshly, an error machine. His performances since have proved why we rate him so highly, but there's still work to do on the decision-making if the penalties, red cards and even own goals are going to be cut out. And they need to be.
The worst part of the game
Was seeing Giroud go down injured. Agent Smith would remind Mr Wenger that that is the sound of inevitability. Hopefully Le Beau recovers okay, because he's started the season in sensational form. His clipped, controlled finish for the first today was almost as sexy as the flick against Spurs. Almost. Look at it another way: had we bought Higuain and he'd scored four goals in four league games, including a derby winner, we'd be hailing him as the second coming. Which of course isn't to say we shouldn't have signed Higuain. Clearly we should have. But there aren't many strikers in the league I'd swap Giroud for in his current form.
Mesut Ozil looks like quite a good football player
Bet you thought I'd forgotten. Without wanting the hype train to get out of hand too early… Choo choooooooooo! What a talent he is. Despite being subbed, he led the team with 34/38 passes completed in Sunderland's final third, created most chances and completed most take-ons. Let's hope Santi's ankle mends soon, as the thought of them together is mouthwatering.

I just bought two plantains for the first time and trying to figure out what to make:) One is ripe and the other is green. Any exotic or just plain yummy recipes? :)
For the green one, cut it into pieces about an inch to an inch and a half thick and fry those in oil. Once they get a little golden, take them out of the pan and smash them down into rounds, then return them to the pan and fry again until crispy. These are called tostones.
Another easy one for the green one is to shred it (with a box grater or the grater attachment of your food processor) and then make little round piles of the shredded plantain (kind of like potato pancakes, but don't flatten them). Fry the piles in oil until crispy. These are called aranitas.
They are customarily split lengthwise and fried in butter & oil on a low heat, served with rice and black beans and any meat dish, platanos maduros.
Fry them a little longer until they carmelize a bit, and serve warm with vanilla ice cream. The black flecked ones are perfectly ready. They go from flecked to black pretty quickly. The black are fine, and sweet, but soft and harder to work with.
re: Veggo
If you have to cut the skin off, it is still 'green'.
My favorite is a very ripe one, sliced about 1/4" thick, and carefully fried. I say careful, because the riper it is, the easier it is too burn.
Tostones, which are twice fried, is one of the better things to do with the harder green ones.
Green ones can also be cut into large pieces and cooked in soup like potato.
re: cups123
Tostones need an aggressive seasoning and/or a mojo to dip them in, finely minced garlic, white vinegar, a little lime juice, salt and olive oil. The yellow plantain, either amarillos or maduros, depending on the drgree of ripeness, can be fried, as other posters have described, and served with a brown mole or just with hot sauce and salt.
I use the green plantains in Sancocho, a mixed meat (beef, chiken, pork) stew with plantains, white sweet potatoes, carrots, yuca, slices of corn on the cob and lots of cilantro in a thickened stock.
I used to have a Dominican roommate that made me "Dominican" breakfast sometimes, that's what he called it, boiled green plantains, plain boiled rice, fried eggs and fried salami, yes, salami. I found the meal needed hot sauce.
re: bushwickgirl
Bushwickgirl, not to hijack this thread by any means,
but do you have any recs for making yautia? The smaller white yautia specifically, NOT the big malanga with the purplish specs. Thanks.
re: Cheese Boy
Use yautia in beef, pork or fish stews with yucca for the double starch effect. We used to get tripe soup, Mondongo, from our local Spanish supermarket that did take out. I refuse to cook tripe at home, it's the, um, aroma. The soup had bits of pork, tripe, yautia, yucca and other porky parts, ears and tail. Interesting. It was tasty but didn't have a very agreeable smell, imo. I'm not saying to get out there and make some tripe soup, but yautia will work in any good stew as a sub for potatoes. You can also make alcapurrias with grated yautia or malanga and green plantains, of course. Enjoy!
re: bushwickgirl
Mondongo can be *very* good when it's prepared well. I like your idea to include the yautia as a primary or secondary starch and I also agree that a smelly mondongo can be a definite appetite suppressor. I rarely order it out for just this reason.
I have a Caribbean place near me that makes AWESOME soups. The varieties I like most are their beef, goat, chicken, and red pea soups. Almost every soup served to me had this huge [2" by 2"] chunk of golden yellow colored root vegetable in it. I have no idea what it is, but it resembled a yukon gold potato but with a less creamy consistency. This veg had a firmer texture to it. I will have to ask them if they'll part with the recipe.
I love to cut a green plantain into coin thin slices (about as thick as two quarters pressed together), deep fry, and sprinkle with chaat masala and a dash of salt. I feed this to my kids all the time. It's a great snack.
re: JungMann
Fried plantains are frequently included with breakfast dishes in the Yucatan, esp. huevos rancheros and huevos motulenos.
re: Veggo
Cubans, puerto rican, guatamalans, bolivians... everyone's doing it!
I loev when they're very very ripe, very caramelized, so, very sweet, and then served with black beans and mexican crema. and a fried egg. perfect or bistec a la palomilla. i don't like the green ones, don't get tostones, personally, as they have very little flavor and are too starchy to me (tho i love fried yucca!)
re: JungMann
oh god, you did it again, i'm drooling, JungMann!
I actually love to use ripe plantains for pastelon. Think of it as a Puerto Rican shepherds pie.
Saute ground beef with minced onion, garlic and sazon seasoning. Add a little tomato sauce, capers, spanish olives and salt/pepper to taste; simmer until reduced and thickened. Next, lightly fry up some sliced ripe (really ripe) plantains until soft and mash into a mashed potato-like consistency; season to taste. Lay the meat in a casserole dish and top with the mashed plantains. Some people top with cheese, I'm not really a fan. Bake for about 20 minutes until the topping is golden.
I like to make mangu with green plaintains. A lot of Dominicans eat it with breakfast, but I like it any time of day. Boil the plaintain till fork tender. While it's boiling, cook a bunch of onions in some oil. Add some limes (vinegar will work in a pinch) to the onions. Mash the plaintains. Add some water to it to make it softer, and also salt and pepper. Serve the plaintains with the onions on top, and I like extra lime with mine.
re: italia84
Yes, that's tasty stuff. I like mofongo also, it's a bit different and very tasty as well.
re: bushwickgirl
I loooove mofongo. Have never made it, but damn, tasty stuff!
i like to braise them too. sometimes in chicken dishes. i add them like 30 minutes out when im braising legs or thighs. especially in a broth made of tomato sauce and chicken stock, wilted onions. a little mace, cinnamon, basil, ginger. they get puffy and custard-like and are a great addition.
also, sometimes i mash them and serve them sweet or savoury. sometimes i mash them and fry them into patties coated in bread crumbs.
The maduros (ripe) one, let it get completely black, slice it up on the bias, and fry it. The tostones (unripe) one, go get some more and try your hand at some mangu with scrambled eggs.
If I'm not mistaken I think I remember having plain boiled green plantains with green bananas and pernil. I thought the combination was delicious because of the plain boiled plantains bananas and the very seasoned roasted pork. The dish that Bushwickgirl mentions (sancocho) sounds very familiar to me as well. Great, now I'm hungry....

"I have PSD (Photoshop Dexterity)" by Hyperakt
Hello there! As much as I adore my plushies, I thought I would eventually use this tumblr to showcase other things I'm working on (or was working on).
In one of my classes, our project was to create a calendar on photoshop by scanning objects and playing with filters to create whatever we wanted to represent the seasons. At first I had scanned typical fake flowers and dead leaves (yeah our professor wanted us to scan actual items) and that turned out disgusting. So, I got construction paper and changed some of the brightness to give different color variations so viewers could tell the difference between foreground and background. Anyway, turned out with those. I'm waiting to get my project back. I'm quite pleased with how they came out. :D May just sell them on Etsy. 2011 Calendars!!!

Look at this sixteen year old girl who has had her affections crushed, who has been called fat and other assorted horrible names by an immature alien, who has put up with Jake English whining about his relationship issues for SIX MONTHS and didn't say a goddamn thing about how much it hurt her until she snapped, who was reduced to no words when Dirk told her he had been mistaken when he'd made her the leader, who is positive her father is dead, and who is currently possessed by an evil troll empress against her will. Now look at this girl that was the first human female to wear pants in-comic, that enjoys masculine things without sacrificing her love for baking or girly sleepovers, that isn't ashamed to be a total cutie of a nerd, that never diminished her friendship with Dirk even if they were both crushing on Jake, who never held it against them even though she is often portrayed as the jealous exgirlfriend. Look at this girl that can swing around a giant fucking fork/trident with ease like a complete and total badass and still turn around and use "shucks buster" unironically. Jane Crocker deserves to be called hot. Jane Crocker deserves to blush. Jane Crocker deserves Channing Tatum in a well tailored suit on a bed of roses who will tell her she's beautiful no matter what and that she is the smartest, sweetest, most down to earth girl he's ever met. And I am so glad that even for one panel that really amounts to nothing more than a joke, she's potentially flustered, cute, happy, whatever you wanna call it even if it's shown through a very Dave-like way and while she's still possessed. She deserves to have affection shown towards her because when you think about it he is the first person to ever tell her she's hot, that she is actually attractive, even if his only knowledge of her amounts to "John's hot mom." Jane Crocker deserves to be called hot and so much more. And if Dave Strider will write sonnets of weird obtuse metaphors about her hotness while she chuckles along and occasionally blushes then hell fucking yeah I ship it.
rose stop antagonizing ur brother
You're not my real brother.
seriously, on any other day i would be downplaying how you aren't really as cool as you think you are, but just between you and me i think you might actually be that cool. i think you just gotta get out of your bro's shadow and spread your wings dude!!!
well that explains how this is the ONE SWORD DAVE CANT SNAP IN HALF
The photo though holy crap.
Strider Strife by *StarrSHINee59
This is irony.
ok so i know this has been an au thing before but i really love the idea of knights being the only ones who remember the sburb session after it completely resets. So everything goes back to normal and trolls and humans are on earth and everything's cool except then everyone thinks Dave is crazy and even John, Jade and Rose start getting uncomfortable talking to him because he sounds absolutely insane and the same thing is going on for karkat. SO then Dave sees him one day and yells his name and then karkat is like "dave???" and dave just starts sobbing because karkat knows who he is and remembers and he's not crazy and oh fuck. and then they become really close and yes
is this a thing I can read

New Orleans (CNN) — New Orleans and much of the Gulf Coast faced the anniversary of devastating Hurricane Katrina by hunkering down for a new storm amid "a high level of anxiety," as the Crescent City's mayor put it Monday.
Forecasters project Tropical Storm Isaac will reach hurricane strength and could be a Category 2 storm when it hits the northern Gulf Coast early Wednesday, seven years to the day after Katrina slammed ashore near the Louisiana-Mississippi state line. Residents of low-lying coastal areas from the Florida Panhandle to southeastern Louisiana were ordered to evacuate ahead of storm surges and heavy rain, while New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu acknowledged his own jitters due to the coincidence.

Herne Bay Little Theatre, 44 Buller's Avenue, Herne Bay, Kent, CT6 5DA
This year marks the bicentennial of the formation of the Sturry to Herne Bay Turnpike Trust, a body with responsibility for maintaining the surface of the pre-existing road linking the city of Canterbury with the newly developing seaside resort. By the end of the eighteenth century visiting the seaside had become a fashionable pursuit, particularly among the upper classes who were turning away from the inland spas. Increasingly those of more modest means were starting to make journeys to coastal resorts, particularly those looking to benefit from the reputed health giving properties of sea water. Herne Bay had its first bathing machine as early as 1770, but during the years that followed, the resort did not really develop with any momentum, arguably due to its remote location. This illustrated talk will explore how improved transport links developed modern Herne Bay.

What is unoccupied house insurance?
People, in general, tend to neglect purchasing insurance for an empty or unoccupied house. In fact, as per insurance surveys, a large percentage of population in United Stated is not aware of availability of unoccupied house insurance. However, most of the insurance companies offer covers for houses that are not under occupancy. Although there is a slight difference between the covers available for occupied and unoccupied house, the basic terms of the policy like insurance against theft, vandalism and fire, remain the same.
Why does one need unoccupied house insurance?
Insurance for unoccupied houses is as important as is insurance for occupied houses. This insurance is handy when the owner shifts to a different place without selling the house. The insurance becomes all the more important if the house is furnished. However, there are certain regulations regarding the definition of an unoccupied house. As per insurance laws, a house can qualify for unoccupied home insurance only if it has been vacant for duration of more than thirty days. This insurance is very important if you take off on long holidays or business trips. It is necessary to cover your house if it is to remain empty for a prolonged period because empty houses are more prone to being burglarized or subjected to vandalism.
How can one get unoccupied house insurance?
Any insurance company will give you details and a quote regarding the insurance procedures for empty home insurance. You can also look up on the internet for more details. The general procedure, however, is to first obtaining an unoccupied house permit. The insurance company that covers for your house when it is under occupancy is eligible to grant you the permit. Once you get the permit, you can either buy the policy from the same insurer or look around for someone better. Your permit is valid to be used anywhere you like.
What to keep in mind while buying unoccupied house insurance?
The first thing you should keep in mind while purchasing empty house insurance is the cost. These policies are not cheap. In fact, they will cost you more than occupied house insurance, the reason being the heightened risk faced by unoccupied houses. You also need to check on the different covers that the company offers like fire, flooding, earthquake, storm and other risk factors.
What are the advantages of unoccupied house insurance?
The biggest advantage that you get by purchasing empty property insurance is peace of mind. You can take care of your business or enjoy your long holiday in peace when you know that your house is insured. Further, unoccupied houses are not covered under many normal house insurance policies. Insurance companies either require extra payment on your premiums if you leave your house unoccupied or refuse to cover for the house. In any case, unoccupied house insurance will see you through. A house is an investment and to safeguard it is a necessity, more so, when it is going to be left unoccupied for long periods.

Learning To Leave by sheppardarts
realismsome times its not about you the audience its about the artist. we choose what we do , what we draw , how we draw and why all for ourselves . yeah when its a payed gig we have additional people chime in and dictate the art but if you are not the art director or the ceo or the boss or the person paying for the commission
your opinion means shit to the person who is doing the drawing because as you the audience have just one job to do which is to just ..watch and appreciate the art .. yeah you can have an opinion but you can never NEVER tell someone how to do their craft!!
even if its not the most creative ...
even if you feel its not art ...
even if you feel those who may use a reference are wasting their time...
or its not realistic enough
or too kiddish in art style
or the character design / stories are not your taste or offensive

A Cup of Creativity Challenge!My last challenge (The CCC - The Crayon Creation Challenge) turned out to be a load of fun and produced some unbelievable artworks! I thought it was time to do a new challenge. From the poll, there seem to be plenty of you to take part
What's the point?
* For fun
* For the challenge
* To try something new with a non standard medium
* I'll feature everyone on my page for a week with the art from this challenge
* For my favourite piece, I'll give away my coffee creation as a prize (and if it sucks, I'll do you a drawing instead)
What are the rules?
* Paint a portrait using coffee as your medium and nothing else (well, maybe a tiny bit of graphite for your sketch and tiny touches of your choice of white/black medium for highlighting/darkening choice areas, but that's it!) Your art must be at least 90% coffee.
* Paint whoever you like, but it must be a painting that you have put time into; I won't accept halfhearted or obviously rushed entr

Fake art - why care and what to look forI posted this last week for anyone looking for help to spot fake art. This is not law, if you don't care, feel free to move on. But if you do care that there are fakers out there, then maybe this could be of some use to you too. We have a serial faker on the loose on dA today so it sparked this little lot once more.
So, the questions/scenarios asked are always the same and the responses/justifications are always the same, but give them a minute to sink in before replying and insulting.
(Q1) Why do you care if someone is cheating what does it have to do with you?
(A1) Well, this is a public ART site and if people are submitting art that is not actually what they claim it to be, then they are dishonest. This will annoy some people and not others. If your passionate about your work then the chances are you'll find it insulting to the artistic community as a whole. Additionally, a lot of admins of groups HAVE to deal with fakes as a daily occure
Fakers and LosersA while ago, :iconpbird12: a.k.a Paula wrote an article
which states clear cut facts so as to why the whole issue about someone faking their art creates rage waves through the art community!
The last week has been a riot which ended up in me getting blocked by two deviants here who clearly have something to hide!
I obviously care much less about the fact that there are many artists here on dA who get more famous than others considering the skill work. Some people get lucky and some don't. It's not easy getting known around this site.
But the fact that people would want to fake art to get accolades makes me angrier than ever.
Here are two examples on what happens when you try to confront artists whom you are suspicious about!
Example 1- The "awesome":iconnatmorley:

Blood BrothersBrookie always holds my hand when we cross the street. She's never given a reason for it, she just does it. It's become this unspoken rule with us that whenever we cross the street together, she slips her hand in mine and I lace my fingers through hers and we walk hand-in-hand until we reach the other side and she drops her hand and we both wipe our palms on our jeans. Brookie's a little scared of crossing the street. Her poppa died in a car crash when we were six. He was a pedestrian. She's never gotten over it.
Brookie is my best friend going on sixteen years now, which is pretty impressive considering we're both sixteen. We don't have some cute little story about how we were born in the same hospital on the same day or about how our mothers were best friends long before they were pregnant with us and somehow passed on that bond while we were still in utero. No, Brookie and I met the same way ever
MercyOh sweet God how the grassland
ignites in moonlight tonight
I must thank you for creating
her tangled fingers' slow pace
through the handsome rain Her
trochaic kinesthesia to rhythms
in Stravinsky's The Rite of
Spring Is this how you meant
for us to love you Yahweh
Tumbling clumsily down hills
of sheets into perpetually
immutable silence I could love
you like that I think I've been
practicing on this Savanna
for days and months Lost in
her crystal canvas Rolling crests
and troughs And when she touches
me Oh fair Lord I'm dragged into
your city past Gethsemane's
pulsing green and gold
Please hold us together
under this luminous stretch
Oh Father We are live
wires swaying
unclothed Our reflections awash
with the skin of your sun
Life is but a DreamWe are just unnourished frail bodies,
overfed with white lies and short-lived-euphorias.
Books filled with black letters,
etching lurid images into our utmost dreams.
Veering us from the big picture...
the one we fail to paint ourselves.
Our fists much too busy with fights,
that we are bound to lose.
Too occupied in line waiting,
for creativity to be let loose like a stray dog.
As if we will find home in this pursuit of happiness...
but we only enclose each other in small rooms
with nothing but old laptops.
Missing keys,
How many times I've guessed which letter could it be...
Which letter could it be?
To free us from havoc-stricken-thoughts?
They come and go, unending like 24 hour subway stations.
There's no break for this lonely man,
heaving every breathe of stale air
into my overused lungs...
Living in confined walls of flesh
held up with brittle paper-mache bones.
Which day is it that I will burst out from this cage of a life?
And hover with the Gods found in carefully binded bo

Compliance management: get the best out of your LMS
Jane Cowan, Managing Director, IMC (UK) Learning Ltd
A wide range of mandatory training measures in organisations today requires legal verification of the completion and results of the formal learning processes employed to stay compliant.
At an organisational level, the planning, control, completion, analysis and monitoring of mandatory training measures are often handled by the HR department and the process is often supported by a Learning Management System. If you are getting the most out of your LMS you should be able to form target groups for mandatory training, track progress, chase completion using reminders at freely definable intervals and report on completion.
An IMC case study highlights the features of the CLIX LMS that helped a Swiss Insurance company win a Brandon Hall Silver Best in Compliance Training Award. It demonstrates the impact of compliance on Learning Management in an organisation and also the options for designing training measures to meet compliance requirements.
