I have learned to love my Savior, And trust Him more each day;For no matter what the trial, He will always be the way."Doubt hinders faith, but trust kindles confidence."peacemaker
Hi Brian. I have reasons to believe when God chooses someone, He doesn't unchoose them. I also believe a lot of the reasons there's so much confusion on the topic is because many (including me) for so long have taken things Jesus said to Israel about what was coming in 70 AD and attempt to apply it to New Covenant believers today about heaven/hell/salvation; also, things Paul said about rewards and sonship and attempt to apply it to heaven/hell/salvation.
So, what's the official universalist stance?
He that overcometh is saved imo.But 'and' seems to indicate that there is no once saved is always saved.
1) Yes, you can lose it (ignore any scriptures other than the select few I choose to use to support my view).2) No, you can't lose it (ignore any scriptures other than the select few I choose to use to support my view).
Salvation is overcoming. Not everyone overcomes while in this body. In fact some return to their sin as 'a dog to its vomit'.And what are the works that we keep when we overcome? ....to love God and our neighbor
My question would be what is the nature of the covenant a believer enters with God? Isn't he selling his soul to God which is bought with the Blood of Jesus?
"He has made known to us the secret of His will. And this is in harmony with God's merciful purpose for the government of the world when the times are ripe for it--the purpose which He has cherished in His own mind of restoring the whole creation to find its one Head in Christ; yes, things in heaven and things on earth, to find their one head in Him. And you too, who in Him were made heirs, having been chosen beforehand in accordance with the intention of Him whose might carries out in everything the design of His own will."
This is a strange questions as it applies to a urist because to us it can't mean 'saved from hell'. But if I apply salvation to mean living free from sin and death in the here and now, then yes, you can certainly loose your salvation. Iv'e seen it and experienced it.
To begin with... It is pretty common Christian thought that one cannot "DO" anything to "get to Heaven"... (and I agree with this thinking)...
How can YOU "LOSE" something YOU never "GAINED" in the first place?CHRIST tasted death for EVERY MAN... and the DEATH that He "tasted" certainly was not PHYSICAL death... for every man individually DIES physicially...Also CHRIST stated that He would NEVER leave or FORSAKE us
1Pe 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 1Pe 1:8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 1Pe 1:9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. So the the salvation that is not in earnest is that which we received at the END of FAITH. Faith is the evidece of things not seen and the substance of things hoped for. So if we receive salvation at the END of Faith then that would be when we no longer need to hope

Haven't I Heard This Song Before?
Originally published on Fri August 23, 2013 7:12 pm
Over the last couple of weeks, the sounds of pop's biggest hits have been distractingly familiar. Almost as soon as it hit the Internet, "Roar," the brand new smash by Katy Perry, was accused of sounding an awful lot like the recent song "Brave," by Sara Bareilles. A legal dispute now surrounds the No. 1 song in the country, Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines," over its similarity to "Got to Give It Up," the 1977 hit by Marvin Gaye.
Today on All Things Considered, NPR's Neda Ulaby talks with NPR Music pop critic Ann Powers about the history of pop sound-alikes. "Songwriters have borrowed from each other, played off each other. People have claimed the right to songs in the public domain," Ann says. "This is part of the art of pop."
But not all borrowing is equal. This got us thinking about the different ways musicians act as mimics.
Sometimes intellectual property laws are involved. If a musician takes a song she loves and incorporates all or part of the actual recording into a new song, that's sampling. Releasing the new song requires the permission of whoever owns the original recording and, often, a financial agreement. (You can trace our current understanding of the copyright laws around sampling to a 1991 suit by Gilbert O'Sullivan against Biz Markie for the use of O'Sullivan's "Alone Again (Naturally)" in Biz's song "Alone Again.")
If a deal can't be reached, or the sound of the original recording isn't quite right, the musician can re-record an element of the song she loves, say a little snippet of melody or a particular drum pattern. This is called interpolation. The re-created element can be a nearly exact replica or just vaguely similar. Sometimes, an interpolation can be so close that it's hard to tell if it's any different at all — think of Vanilla Ice's famous denial that "Ice Ice Baby" was sampled directly from Queen and David Bowie's "Under Pressure." If it's really a new performance, permission is not needed, but the writer of the original song gets credit and, if there are royalties, a share of the money. (Think of cover songs as extended interpolations.)
Then there's the shady, mysterious land that occupies the area between what we'll call "inspiration" and "coincidence." Here's where things get contentious. Pop music history is full of tributes, riffs and echoes that make us turn to the radio and go: "Haven't I heard this song before?" Sometimes, it turns out, we have.
There's been a mini-boom on the radio this summer of songs that sound like other songs. This week, it's hitmaker Katy Perry.
KATY PERRY: (Singing) I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath, get to rock the boat and make a mess.
BLOCK: Now, check out this tune from earlier this year by lesser known Sara Bareilles.
SARA BAREILLES: (Singing) You can be amazing.
BLOCK: There's also the huge hit "Blurred Lines" by Robin Thicke. It sounds an awful lot like Marvin Gaye's "Gotta Give It Up." And the list goes on. NPR's Neda Ulaby says no matter what the song of the summer is, the pop music word of the summer is interpolation.
NEDA ULABY, BYLINE: Interpolation is a polite word for borrowing.
ULABY: Like when Aaron Copeland interpolated the folk song "Simple Gifts" into his orchestral suite "Appalachian Spring."
ANN POWERS, BYLINE: This is just how music works.
ULABY: That's NPR music critic Ann Powers.
POWERS: It is part of the art of pop. Songwriters have borrowed from each other, played off of each other.
ULABY: An art, Powers notes, that's been historically unfair to African-American musicians in particular. But popular music is built from other genres. What's borrowing and what's ripping off?
THE SUPREMES: (Singing) You can't hurry love, no you just have to wait...
POWERS: "You Can't Hurry Love," for example, was originally borrowed from a song called "You Can't Hurry God."
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN: (Singing) You can't hurry God, oh no, you just have to wait.
ULABY: Ideally, interpolation involves credit and compensation, but the lines are, well, blurry.
ROBIN THICKE: (Singing) Everybody get up.
ULABY: Robin Thicke co-wrote and performed "Blurred Lines" partly as an homage to Marvin Gaye. He said he was inspired by this song of Gaye's, "Got to Give it Up."
ULABY: In that case, says Ann Powers, the question is...
POWERS: Does an artist have a right to pay tribute to a classic song in a way that echoes that song? I think they do, actually.
ULABY: And there's a big difference between that issue and the similarities between Katy Perry's newest hit and the song by Sara Bareilles.
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN: (Singing) (unintelligible).
ULABY: Popular music sends to sound alike and maybe that's what we like about it.
POWERS: Familiarity with just a touch of novelty.
ULABY: The questioning of copying came with an upside for the lesser-known singer, Sara Bareilles. In the past week, digital sales for her song, "Brave," have gone through the roof. Neda Ulaby, NPR News.
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN: (Singing) (Unintelligible). Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Aiken man charged with DWI in New York
An Aiken man was charged with driving while intoxicated in New York after he allegedly struck six vehicles while driving, according to the Putnam County Sheriff's Department.
Marcos Castro-Beltran, 28, of York Street, was charged with DWI after failing multiple field sobriety tests. He was processed at the Putnam County Correctional Facility, where the charge was upgraded to aggravated DWI, a misdemeanor.
The incident happened about 1:30 a.m. on Monday, according to a statement from the sheriff's department.
Officers arriving on the scene found a "heavily damaged" vehicle that had been driven onto a sidewalk and was missing a wheel, and Castro-Beltran standing near the vehicle, according to the statement. Castro-Beltran told officers he had been drinking.
While traveling east on Main Street in the village of Brewster, N.Y., Castro-Beltran allegedly struck five vehicles at a used car dealership, a vehicle located in the driveway of a home, a utility pole and an earth embankment, according to the statement.
If found guilty, Castro-Beltran could face up to a year in jail and a fine of up to $1,000.

Headdress - Ada Perry, Feathers, circa 1930s-1960s Reg. No: HT 2923 3
- Summary:
- Feathered headdress for playing dress-ups, from a collection of handcrafts, produced by English migrant Ada Perry, between the 1930s and 1960s. Ada Perry migrated to Australia as a widow with eight children in 1924. She struggled to work a piece of isolated government allocated land at Mirboo North, until 1928 when a buggy accident left her unable to continue physical labour, so she created craft items, while her children worked the land. The items in the Museum's collection are prototypes, as she kept the first of anything she created for her children and then gave away the rest. All Ada's handcrafts were made using available scraps or reusing old clothes, providing insight into a domestic environment where subsistence was a struggle and where 'making do' was a matter of course.
- Description:
- Headdress made by attaching a variety of feathers to a piece of blue and white spotted material. The material is wider and the front and narrows towards each end. A green and white bow has been attached each side of the headdress, at the front just before it narrows.
- Acquisition Information:
- Cultural Gifts Donation from Mr Nigel Lendon, 2003
- Acknowledgement:
- Donated through the Australian Government's Cultural Gifts Program.

Tim Horsmon became only the third coach in Maryland volleyball history in February 2008, coming to College Park, Md., after five extremely successful seasons at the University of Dayton.
Horsmon's collegiate career record ranks among some of the greatest starts in NCAA history. In his first nine seasons as a NCAA Division I head coach, his teams earned eight trips to the NCAA Tournament, eight conference championships (including a 17-1 record in conference tournament play), and a tremendous 225-93 overall record. His teams amassed an amazing 93-10 record (.903) in conference regular-season matches while at Dayton and Robert Morris.
Over his four seasons at Maryland, Horsmon has continually recruited top talent to College Park with two players, Mary Cushman (2010) and Adreene Elliott (2011), earning ACC-All Freshman honors. In addition, Horsmon's last four recruiting classes have all received Highest Honorable Mention honors from PrepVolleyball.com.
In 2010, the Terps narrowly missed out on their first trip to the NCAA tournament in five years. That season the squad finished with 19 victories including two top-25 wins over Duke and Florida State, respectively.
From 2003 through 2007, Horsmon led the University of Dayton to unprecedented success. In five seasons, his teams won four Atlantic 10 Conference Tournament Championships (2003, 2004, 2005, 2007) and earned four NCAA Tournament berths (2003, 2004, 2005, 2007) -- the first conference championships and NCAA berths in program history.
His 2007 team finished with a 33-2 overall record, a second-round NCAA Tournament appearance and a ranking in the CSTV/AVCA Top 25 Coaches Poll, reaching as high as 12th during the season. Horsmon was named the 2007 American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Northeast Region Coach of the Year and the 2005 Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year.
At Dayton, Horsmon coached four consecutive A-10 Players of the Year (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006), back-to-back Atlantic 10 Setters of the Year (2005, 2006), two A-10 Rookies of the Year (2003, 2007), four A-10 Most Outstanding Players of the Year (2003, 2004, 2005, 2007) and eight AVCA Honorable Mention All-Americans.
From 1999 through 2002, Horsmon served as head coach of Robert Morris University in Pittsburgh. Almost immediately, he turned around a program coming off five consecutive losing campaigns. In four seasons, Horsmon guided the Colonials to three Northeast Conference regular-season championships (1999, 2001, 2002), four Northeast Conference Tournament championships (1999, 2000, 2001, 2002) and four straight NCAA Tournament appearances. His record in conference play was a dominant 42-2. Horsmon earned Northeast Conference Coach of the Year honors in 1999 and 2002.
In addition to his collegiate experience, Horsmon served as head coach of the Adidas Penn Juniors 18-year-old Elite team and the Southern Maryland Juniors - both club Junior Olympic teams. The Adidas Penn Juniors were regionally ranked on the east coast. The Southern Maryland Juniors were ranked No. 1 in the Chesapeake Region in 1999.
Horsmon, a Maryland native, began his coaching career in 1996 as head coach at Calvert High School in Prince Frederick, Md. In three seasons, he amassed a 60-5 record and won the Class 3A Maryland State Championship and a regional title in 1998. That year, Horsmon was named Washington Post Coach of the Year.
Horsmon holds a bachelor of science from Frostburg State University (1991) and a teaching certificate from Salisbury State University (1993). He is a member of the American Volleyball Coaches Association and serves as a voter for the AVCA Top 25 poll.Horsmon's Highlights

Miami Heat forward LeBron James has had social media all a-Twitter the past two days stirring up the idea that he might have interest in playing for an NFL team during the NBA lockout. James even exchanged Tweets with Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, declaring he would be "a touchdown maker."
Atlanta Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez knows a little something about scoring touchdowns—among currently active NFL players, he leads everyone with 92. As Gonzalez also is a former college basketball star at the University of California, he also knows a lot about making the successful transition from the hardwood to the gridiron.
Although Gonzalez doesn't know James personally, he has an idea of just how much it would take for James to have a chance to succeed in pro football.
"From what I heard, he wants to be a playmaker and wants to catch the ball," Gonzalez told Sporting News. "He'd probably be a tight end. He's 6-8, 260. I would think he'd be a tight end."
When looking at current NFL players at that position, James' frame compares favorably to the Buffalo Bills' Scott Chandler (6-7, 263), who has four touchdown catches this season. Back in the 1970s and '80s, Harold Carmichael produced 79 career touchdowns as a 6-8, 225-pound wide receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Considering Gonzalez, at 6-5, 251, has survived the rough and tumble of the NFL for 14-plus seasons to keep performing at high level at age 35, he notes it takes much more than size and fluidity to last in the league at his position.
"One thing that people need to know absolutely is that it doesn't matter how athletic you are," Gonzalez said. "I don't care about that. It's a mentality that you need for pro football.
"Could he handle first of all, going out to practice every day? The schedule that we have is way different than what they have in basketball. It's a lot harder."
Another difference from basketball to football—as Gonzalez points out—is there are no such things as free throws every time an offensive player gets roughed up trying to advance the ball.
"Could he handle going across the middle? When he goes across the middle and he gets hit in his head a couple of times and they knock him out, it's a whole different animal than getting fouled going to the hoop. You can get fouled going to the hoop and someone slaps you on the wrists.
"Those hard fouls happen to us on every play. Every play is a hard foul and your body takes a beating."
Gonzalez acknowledges James has the physical gifts to star in football—if James would be able to handle the sport's more physical nature.
"Athletically, he'd be an unbelievable tight end," Gonzalez said. "He'd be one of the best. But you have to make sure that he could handle the mentality."

text: Hot Chocolate is darkened plum with a brown base that keeps it looking muted. It has a satin finish, and the color coverage was fully opaque. This shade was comfortable to wear, and it had a very creamy feel. This shade wore for five hours on me. MAC Till Tomorrow is pinker, lighter. Chanel Stunt is a touch lighter. MAC Faithfully Yours is darker, more cool-toned.

Yes, I recommend this product.
"I continue to reorder more of these for everyday casual wear as well as walking; nice looking shoe that fits perfectly. Mine have held up well and I replace them with a new pair and then use them for yard work after several months and have never had a pair wear out."

"I've had these shoes for two months and already my big toe in the right shoe has worn a hole in the top mesh. They fit okay but now they are relegated to being used for dirty outside jobs around the house. I only used them for walks and most of the day. Walks were about three miles a day. I've owned many New Balance shoes before but have never had this happen."

"I have been wearing NB shoes most of my adult life. I was used to finding a favorite and eventually NB discontinued or changed them. That is the case that made me try these shoes. I wasn't really expecting much since I was used to paying at least twice as much and having to buy 3-4 pairs a year. I have been wearing these for about a month and I am so impressed. Of course there are a few issues which is why I didn't give them a 5. I normally wear a 12 2E. I am wearing a 12 4E in this shoe. Also the tongue is very narrow which leaves a portion of my sock exposed between the third and fourth lace eye. I wish they made a 6E in this shoe as I think that would eliminate the exposed sock issue. Overall I am extremely happy with this shoe and will order another pair."

I've been voted Sexiest Raw Vegan Woman 2009 by the raw community again this year, but by default. Alicia Silverstone actually won the votes, I came in 2nd place. But she doesn't consider herself raw anymore. What an honor! Plus, Steve from Sacred Chocolates sent me a congratulatory package of his delicious chocolate hearts…yummmy.
Last year, I was surprised that I was awarded 1st place for Best of Raw 2008:

Holly Jacobs tells 'Revenge porn' story, share nude photos with boyfriend who posted online
By FnF Desk
PUBLISHED: Sep 12, 2013, 19:23 pm IST | UPDATED: Sep 12, 2013, 19:23 pm
Keywords: Holly Jacobs Holly Jacobs nude photos Revenge porn Revenge porn victim Revenge porn Story of Revenge porn victim End Revenge Porn
Washington: "It was completely devastating when I first found the pictures - I could feel myself go into shock."
Holly Jacobs had no idea the racy photographs she'd shared with her boyfriend would be used against her in a publicly humiliating way after they broke up.
Yet, in 2009 a friend called to say Jacobs' Facebook account had been hacked and a nude photo was online. And it got worse.
"My photos and a video of me were up on a revenge porn website," says Jacobs, who legally changed her name in the aftermath.
With her name, phone number and email address posted online, Jacobs was bombarded with unwanted attention. Her photos and videos were even sent to her boss.
Revenge porn sites make no bones about why they exist.
"They bill themselves as places in which we can get back at our exes," says Professor Danielle Keats Citron of the University of Maryland law school.
And in most cases the sites are legal, says Citron.
New Jersey is the only state to make it a felony to share a person's nude images without that person's consent, although a bill cracking down on revenge porn in California is expected to be in the hands of the state's governor shortly, Bloomberg reports.
Florida, where Jacobs lives, recently rejected a call to toughen its laws to protect against revenge porn.
After four years of trying to get the images taken down, Jacobs has sued her ex-boyfriend, Ryan Seay, who reportedly has said someone hacked into his computer and posted the photographs of Jacobs. Seay's attorney, Charles Arline, denies the allegations against his client.
"We're anticipating making these legal arguments very soon," he tells WTOP.
Jacobs also has created an advocacy website called End Revenge Porn. The website refers to revenge porn as "a form of cyber-rape."
Jacobs warns women to protect their privacy by avoiding sharing potentially compromising photos.
"I know you might love and trust your boyfriend, but you just never know what's going to happen when you break up," says Jacobs.
Having personal images go viral is painful for any victim, Jacobs says.
"Imagine telling your dad that there are nude photos and a video of you on the Internet," says Jacobs.
Citron is advocating for Congress to amend the federal cyberstalking law to cover the use of any computer service that produces or discloses a sexually graphic image of a person without that person's permission. # Source: wtop.com, By Neal Augenstein, Photo Courtesy MA Williams

It was a full day of wrestling in the Scenic City that started with No. 17 Virginia defeating the Bulldogs 38-6. Cumberland then dropped a 52-0 match to the Hawkeyes before Iowa defeated Virginia 26-12.
Fans started filing in when the gates opened at 2:00 p.m. and did not stop until the doors were closed just after 7:00 p.m. It was the first sellout for a wrestling match in the recently renovated arena and the largest crowd for a dual match on record at UTC.
"I want to give a big thanks to the community for coming out," stated UTC head coach Heath Eslinger. "I hope people will come back when we wrestle (No. 6) Illinois (Jan. 6) and when we wrestle our conference schedule."
The Mocs started quickly in their 5:00 p.m. match with the Bulldogs. They jumped out to a 6-0 lead behind a first-period pin by No. 9 Nick Soto (Spring Hill, Fla.) at 125. Chattanooga posted wins up to the 174-pound match before really turning it on.
Junior Jake Young (Ooltewah, Tenn.) wrestled in his first home match since 2010, scoring a pin over Zeke Hunt in the first period. At 184, senior Robert Prigmore (Southlake, Texas) pinned Aric Fernandez (4:11) in the second period for the second of four straight falls for UTC.
Senior Niko Brown (Kissimmee, Fla.) got the crowd going when he pinned Joe Gallegos just 11 seconds into the 197-pound match. Sophomore Kevin Malone (Carrollton, Ohio) finished off the dual with a first period pin at heavyweight.
Following the 5:00 p.m. contests, the second mat was cleared and the stage was set for the showdown with the second-ranked Hawkeyes. The Mocs have had some success over ranked teams at home in recent years, beating No. 12 Stanford 22-15 last season and No. 9 Ohio State 19-16 on Nov. 10, 2007.
Unfortunately, Iowa snuffed out any hope of an upset early, sandwiching a major decision at 133 between pins at 125 and 141. Junior Alex Hudson (Marietta, Ga.) got the Mocs on the board, and the crowd on their feet, with his convincing 8-2 decision over Brody Grothus at 149.
Chattanooga looked like it was going to get another win from Young at 174. He was leading Grant Gambrell 5-1 in the second period, but gave up an escape and takedown before the buzzer. Gambrell chose down in the third and quickly escaped to tie the match at 5-5. Gambrell then scored a takedown late in the period for a 7-5 win.
The match of the night came at 197 between Brown and Iowa's Tomas Lira. Brown was the aggressor from the opening whistle, scoring two takedowns and 4-2 lead early in the first period. Lira countered with a takedown of his own, but Brown escaped before the buzzer to stay ahead 5-4.
Brown escaped again to start the second and ignited the crowd with another takedown for an 8-4 lead. Another takedown in the period gave him a 10-6 lead after five minutes of action. He gave up an escape in the third, but fought off Lira for the 10-7 win to improve to 14-1 on the season.
The Mocs will be back in the room for the next four weeks, preparing for a road trip to Princeton (Dec. 14) and the Grapple in the Garden in New York's Madison Square Garden (Dec. 16). There UTC will face Rutgers and No. 4 Oklahoma State in the first collegiate duals held in the historic arena.
UTC returns home for the Southern Scuffle in McKenzie Arena on Jan. 1-2. Seven of the top-10 teams in the country will visit the Scenic City for the two-day tournament. The next home dual is scheduled for Jan. 6 against No. 6 Illinois. Ticket are on sale now on GoMocs.com or by calling the UTC Ticket Office at (423) 266-MOCS (6627).

Rated 5 out of 5 by Victoria22 Great cross-body bag This bag is a perfect size for a cross-body bag. It looks larger in person than online. The strap is a little too long. Im 5'2 and had to get another hole punched in the strap to make it shorter. Other than that I love the bag! You can fit your essential items and more in this delightful bag! February 19, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by ll1700 New Favorite! I love this bag. I was a little worried it would be too small at first but not at all. The dimensions seem off that the description gives. It also comes with a cross body strap which is nice. The pouch inside can be used and used as a divider or removed. Definitely glad I bought this one. January 9, 2014

What you see here is a modern heirloom. Whether you decide to stuff it with blankets, toys, or fifty-pound bags of fair-trade coffee beans is entirely up to you. This chest is constructed out of high-grade Baltic Birch panels, which are meticulously imprinted with vibrant ink. Note how it permeates the wood. Admire the durable clear-coat finish. In the spirit of mid-century modern design, all edges are exposed plywood miters. Swap panels to change its look, or add yet more panels to alter its form. This chest exists solely to provide solace to your most cherished treasures.
In this modular piece, panels are assembled with steel brackets and fasteners, creating a very strong chest that's built to last. The flap stays to keep the lid open and prevent slamming. The casters are lockable. Chest ships assembled, but the wheels will need to be attached. Periodically wipe down the piece to remove any dust. If you need to wipe up any spills, use a damp cloth and then wipe dry. Abrasive sponges should not be used to scrub the furniture, and no abrasive powders or other types of detergent should be used. If treated correctly, the furniture should last for many years.

Supplementation with glutathione doesn't raise blood levels of this antioxidant and cooking and storage destroys it. In some studies, Vitamin C and NAC can raise levels. But, without a doubt, eating raw fruits and vegetables is the ideal way to get this into your body--any way you can.
Dr. Murray has a good chart which displays the difference between glutathione in cooked and raw food:
Table 1. Comparison of Glutathione in Fresh vs. Cooked Foods
Glutathione amount (dry weight) (in milligrams per 31/2 oz (100 g) serving)
Food Uncooked Cooked
Apples 21 0.0
Carrots 74.6 0.0
Grapefruit 70.6 0.0
Spinach 166 27.1
Tomatoes 169 0.0
Asparagus, avocado, and walnuts are also good sources of glutathione.
WHAT TO FEED YOUR KIDS: Serve a raw fruit or vegetables with every meal and snack or buy a juicer and make fresh squeezed juice a daily habit. We all know that fruits and vegetables are the key to a healthy diet, but with so many environmental toxins (plastic is everywhere, there are prescription meds in our water, and countless chemicals in the food we eat!) everyone should be eating more raw fruits and vegetables so we can detoxify from the modern world.

How to call, message, and email your contacts using Siri
Siri isn't just another voice control system, it remembers context and it can understand relationships. That means, for example, you can tell Siri to call your wife's iPhone, and Siri will know who that is and which phone number to dial. Not only that, Siri can send iMessages or SMS, and even email any of your friends, family, or co-workers. No matter how you like to communicate, Siri makes it incredibly easy to stay in touch.
- How to establish contact relationships with Siri
- How to manually add relationship data through the Contacts app
- How to get contact information with Siri
- How to call a contact with Siri
- How to send an SMS or iMessage with Siri
- How to send an email using Siri
How to establish contact relationships with Siri
Siri will need to either learn who your wife, best friend, boss, or other relationships are before it can associate them with the proper contact. You can edit the Contact to enter that information, but what fun is that? The easier, faster way is simply to tell Siri what your relationships are.
- Press and hold down the Home button to activate Siri.
- Tell Siri what the relationship is. For example: "Matthew Kazmucha is my brother" — make sure you say the name exactly as it appears in your contacts.
- Say Yes or tap the Yes button when Siri asks you to confirm.
- Siri will confirm that the relationship has been added.
This works great for unique relationships but for relatives that have simliar titles, it can be a problem. If you have two daughters for instance, you'll need to assign them a differently for Siri to differentiate between them. You can, of course, use things like "oldest daughter" or "youngest daughter".
How to manually add relationship data with the Contacts app
When Siri does get confused by multiple relationships, it is possible to manually add in the proper data in your Contact card so that Siri can make use of it.
- Launch the Contacts app — located in the Utilities folder by default — or launch the Phone app and tap on the Contacts tab.
- Tap on **your contact card**.
- Tap the Edit button in the top right-hand corner.
- Tap to add a new Related Field — you'll have to scroll down a ways to find it.
- Enter the relationship type and type in a relationship name.
- Tap the info button and choose the contact you'd like to add to that relationship.
- Tap the Done button in the upper right hand corner.
Siri will now remember that relationship and saying things like "Call my brother" will now cause Siri to call the contact connected tp that relationship.
Privacy warning
Any relationships you add to your Contact card are now part of that card which means that if you email or message someone your contact card, all of your relationships will be part of that information. You may want to create a second, relationship-free Contact card to share with others.
How to get contact information with Siri
Siri can quickly find you the Contact information for anyone on your iPhone -- far more quickly than tapping, scrolling, and visually picking them out typically allows.
- Press and hold down the Home button to activate Siri.
- Tell Siri who's contact information you want to see. For example, you can say things like "When is Amanda's birthday?" or "Show me Amanda's information."
- If there is more than one person matching your request, Siri will ask you to confirm which you'd like information for.
- Siri will present you with the information you've requested.
How to call a contact with Siri
Siri can place calls to someone by name, or simply by relationship, and to any phone number you have. It works especially well when driving.
- Press and hold the Home button to activate Siri.
- Tell Siri who you want to call. For example, you can say something like "Call mom".
- If the contact has more than one phone number, Siri will ask you which number you want to call. If you know you want to call to someone's work or mobile phone, you can make it faster by saying "Call mom at work" or "Call mom's iPhone".
- Siri will place the call.
How to send an SMS or iMessage with Siri
Siri can quickly and conveniently compose SMS and iMessages either to a single or multiple recipients. Just like calls, it's especially useful when driving.
- Press and hold the Home button to activate Siri.
- Tell Siri you want to send a text message, and to make it even faster, to whom. For example, you can say something like "Text Heather I'll be late for dinner".
- If you don't say the contact or relationship immediately, Siri will ask you for a phone number, contact name, or iMessage-associated email address.
- Wait for Siri to confirm the content of your text.
- Tell Siri to send your message by tapping Send or saying Yes.
If you're not happy with the message, instead of confirming it, say "change it" to re-dictate it, or say "cancel" to abandon it.
How to send an email using Siri
Messaging with Siri is not limited to just sending text messages; Siri can also send emails, both to individuals and to multiple recipients.
- Press and hold the Home button to activate Siri.
- Tell Siri you want to send an email and, to save time, to whom. For example: "Send an email to Heather" or "Email Chris and Bobby".
- If the contact has more than one email address, Siri will ask you which address. If you know you are sending an email to someone's work address, you can make it faster by saying "Send an email to Leanna at work."
- Tell Siri the subject of the email. For example: "Apps", "Lunch", or "Vacation plans"
- Tell Siri the contents of the email.
- Wait for Siri to confirm the content of your text.
- Tap Send or say Yes to send your email.
If you're not happy with the email, instead of confirming it, say "change subject", "add", or "change message". You can also tell Siri to "cancel" to abandon the email completely.

How to call, message, and email your contacts using Siri
I hope that is a fake birthdate...
Well done Rene. I'm always looking for things that Siri will do. This was helpful. I like the Blackberry slam as well. Very funny.
OK. I added my daughter manually, and for some reason siri saved it as my "Child", not my daughter. I added my son, again manually, and he is not in there at all. If i say call my son, it calls my "child". I removed the daughter from my daughter and just left my son. i still can't call him by saying call my son. It calls my child, which for some reason is STILL MY DAUGHTER. Real smooth siri.
The same thing is happening with me... I was trying to set my moms phone up for her. Somehow I got it to add two children and it will ask which one it wants her to call. They need to fix it
Allyson wrote a nice quick reference here. Unfortunately Apple (tell me if I'm wrong) provides no way to send email and attach a PDF document from anywhere including iCloud or Dropbox.
Or do they?
I send texts through Siri all the time. It's one of the reasons I love using an iPhone. It's easy and effortless.
One thing I hate about sending messages through Siri is correcting them. If Siri mistakes a word, I can't simply say "change XXXX to XXXX," I have to repeat the entire message or physically edit it in the Messages app (and that's only if Siri actually KEEPS the message instead of only taking me to the person's chat).
