|On 2/8/11, the ASCA replaced 5 protection bolts and the anchors on this climb with 1/2" x 3.5" 5-piece bolts. The anchors were equipped with Fixe double ring hangers.

A hold must have broken off just as you enter the dark patch... Definitely not 10a any more. The rest of the climb is super fun.
Could use a single bolt to protect the mantle down low. Why have to high ball or use pro on what is obviously a sport climb?
By Jarek Tuszynski
Oct 21, 2016
Climbed it on 2016-10-17 and the climb seemed to be in 5.10 range. Michel le Duff commented that it might have lost some holds around the lower part of the dark patch. I thought the holds were fine just not in the crack but a foot to the left in the left edge of the dark patch.
I also found need for gear to protect the lower 30 feet until you get to the first bolt quite annoying. The climbing is easy (~5.5) but it should be considered a mixed route.

Dog Walking, Pet Sitting, Puppy Walkers Central
Mike's Dog Walking - Jerusalem Israel
|Daily dog walks with Mike
|I will care for your pets when you can't. Need your pet
looked after while you're away? I am a reliable, mature person
with a car living in South Jerusalem, Israel, who loves animals
and walking.
My services include daily dog walks, and feeding and playing with your pet when you are away. You can rely on me if you're away at work for the day or for longer. I can also provide home services, like taking in your mail, and hosting your dog at my home. Shomer Shabat.
Jerusalem Dog Walking - Pet Sitting
|Your Dog's Home Away From Home in Jerusalem
|You have found an excellent and professional dog walker and pet sitter. I will take the best care of your pet, your loved one will be totally safe in my hands! I take only up to 2-3 dogs at a time and work from home so your dog gets 100% attention that he needs. I have a lot of experience as I have been pet sitting for a while now, have owned my own dog in the past and grew up with German Shepherds being breeded in my own home by my father! I live right next to a dog park. I make sure that all of the dogs that stay with me get plenty of walks and plenty of exercise. My rates are very reasonable.
Featured Vancouver BC Canada Dog Taxi:
Dog Taxi Vancouver is an
alternative to conventional kenneling and is intended to provide
a top-notch home-to-home dog sitting resource, for owners who
are only interested in the best for their dog. The amount of
exercise your dog gets will be closely monitored and will be not
less than three hours per day; including three separate walks.
We provide: Outdoor dog obedience training, Search and rescue, Dog taxi services, Dog borading (dog daycare, dog hotel) and Dog Walking and Training.
|Walking your dog is fundamental to your
pet's well being, and pet owners will take their dogs out for as
many walks as they can, however, due to the hectic lifestyle
most of us live, we often hire a person or a company to do the
dog walking for us.
Dog walking companies and individuals offering dog walks have grown exponentially over the last few years.
Dog walkers are no longer offering walking only: the term "dog walker" now also includes dog running, dog bicycling, dog day trips, and one day excursions. Many dog walking companies will come with a vehicle to pick up your dog, and then drive your dog with other dogs to the designated walking area, which is usually a large park, the beach or a mountain.
The dog walker, referring to an individual dog walker, is usually a one person show. Setting up a dog walking company is one of the easiest and most profitable pet services available.
The dog walker will pick your dog up from your home and bring him back at the end of the walk.
Dog walker rates will vary from one dog walking company to the other, but usually the best rates are offered by individual dog walkers, who have less over head than the dog walking companies.
Featured London England UK dog walker company:
|The Urban Dog Walker
|A professional North London dog walking service that provides you with the safe knowledge your much loved dogs are being exercised and cared for during walks. My emphasis is on play, exploration, good behaviour and socialisation which will have your dogs sleeping in their beds for the rest of the day. As a North London dog walker I operate in the areas of Highgate, Muswell Hill, East Finchley, Hornsey and Crouch End. I only walk small groups of dogs, no more than five at a time, as I believe that it is important to be able to give them the individual attention that they need. Dog walks take place in the many beautiful green spaces of North London including Highgate Woods, Hampstead Heath, Queens Woods, Alexandra Park and Trent Park. Walks can be arranged on a daily or ad-hoc basis and with more and more people working longer hours my dog walking service takes away the stress of leaving your dog at home alone. I also offer a 'let out' service for those that simply require their dogs to be let out into the garden or fed. I am fully insured and police checked and these documents can be viewed at the free consultation.
Featured Den Haag The Hague The Netherlands dog walkers:
|We are Vittoria & Enrico in Den Haag The Hague The Netherlands . How did we become dog walkers? We are dog behavior students, we have a huge passion for pets, dogs & puppies. Dogs evolved from ancient wolves. Thanks to dogs, humans ,could evolve themself as much as dogs did with human cooperation. For example: wolves actually can't bark. This is an "exclusive" dog behavior that has been developed by these wonderful animals just to help us hunting, guarding, working and paying attention to them. This means that we are strictly connected to each other. A dog's communication is based to maintain calm and to avoid conflict in the "pack". These packs are proper families; for example "alpha" dog doesn't eat first every time, he/she uses positive reinforcement avoiding the negative one. We are the genetical leaders of these great creatures, the only thing we need is to observe, understand and use dog language (basically body language) with a lot of LOVE and RESPECT. A good dog trainer knows dog's PSYCHOLOGY! Dogs are powerful animals. They requires a lot of exercise and positive reinforcement discipline. We really would love to walk your dog or puppy because we LOVE pets & everything that turns around their world : training, breeds, behavior, environment, veterinarian and health care, communication, fitness, etc. Besides being dog walkers, we are also dog trainers and pet groomers.

Positive Reinforcement: Modern training techniques no longer accept the out-dated notion that punishment and humiliation produce desirable results. And neither do we.

In the long run, this strengthens the bond you share and makes the learning process an adventure, which rewards you both. Positive reinforcement techniques will produce right results with any dog, regardless of age or temperament. At Yogi Pups & Purrs, we believe that good leadership is about partnership and love.

|Downtown Toronto dog walkers. Rain, Sleet, Snow, Heat, we are out there walking dogs Monday to Friday and on weekends. 8:00am to 6:00pm. Our name comes from the fact that Toronto's nickname is "Hogtown". This nickname comes from the historic fact that livestock was processed in Toronto, largely by the city's largest pork processor and packer, the William Davies Company. We are all dog owners and lovers at Hogtown Dogtown and enjoy the company of dogs. Dog ownership is not only mentally healthy for humans, but, also physically as our furry friends require long walks in order to do their "business" and so that, they, themselves can stay healthy. Diet is a key component of your dogs health, however, exercise is equally important. Is your best buddy over weight, does he/she need a mid-day bathroom break? Call us today and find out more about our services and walkers. All our dog walkers and daycare providers are long time Friends or Family members who own their own pets.
|Dog Run The Best Walk In The West
|How the West was Walked!
Welcome to Dog Run and thanks for stopping by!
Our knowledgeable, physically fit dog walkers lead small packs of well-socialized dogs on fast-paced, long-distance nature hikes.
Our focus on distance and forward motion challenges your dog's mind as well as their body.
Our hikes provide the highest value and performance available in any Calgary Dog Walking Service!
Our mission is simple: we're "The Best Walk in the West!"
2 Hours + 8kms = happy + tired
We did the math! Did you know that the average group dog walker takes their dogs on a one-hour stroll at the park and charges $20!? Did you know that the dog walker might only travel one or two kilometers in that hour!? Did you know that most of the time the dogs just run around and don't actually go anywhere? How do we know all this stuff you ask? We followed several of them with a GPS tracker so we'd know what NOT to do for our clients!
Our 'Dog Walk' is really a 'Dog Hike' with a group familiar dogs. Our target distance in normal weather is 8kms, but we've had dedicated groups go as far as 12kms in one hike! It all depends on the weather and how many poop breaks we take. Compared to the average company's dog walk, our dog hikes are Boot Camp for your Baby! Our walkers wear GPS trackers for quality control.
Our hikes are all off-leash and are performed in wilderness areas in and around the city. Dogs should demonstrate good social skills and recall or at least the ability to stay with their group!
Most of our new clients are amazed at how relaxed their dog is after we walk them. They jump up less when you come home, they have reduced negative behaviors like barking and chewing, and they're just plain nicer to be around! We guarantee your dog will get high-quality exercise to challenge both their body and mind. Come home to the affection of a well-worked dog after a long day!

We also offer evening and weekend B & B & B (that's bed, breakfast, and bone) services. And for those dogs who are not able to particpate in our off-leash fieldtrips, we have neighborhood walks available as well as City Hikes and City Excursions.
Your canine family member will be under expert and loving care tailored to their particular needs. We believe, and our clients agree, that it is more fun to go out and sniff and explore new sites and smells than to stay inside — or on-leash — all day!
We visit only the best areas for our fieldtrips — see some of the locations we visit!

Houston Puppy Walkers, Dog Walking & Pet Sitting
|Houston Pet Sitting & Dog Walking
|Pet Sitting Services in Houston, TX
As a pet owner, the care and emotional well being of your companion is always on your mind. When work responsibilities or vacation plans take you away from your pet, finding a trusted caregiver is a top priority. Traditionally, pet owners have relied on the good intentions of a family member or friend to take care of their pet or have chosen to board their dog or cat at a kennel facility while away.
Fortunately, there is another option available for those looking for Houston area pet care. We provide a great alternative to anxiety provoking kennels. Houston Animal Sitting provides warm and professional pet sitting and dog walking services at your home while you are away, eliminating anxiety for both the owner and companion.
Dog Walking Services in Houston, TX
While many clients of pet sitting services are busy professionals who have periodic out of town trips, there is an increasing number of clients who are concerned with their pet being alone all day while they are simply at work. In some cases, pets become destructive when not given enough exercise and it is these owners who find themselves forced to crate their beloved companion during the day if they cannot find an alternative means to satisfy their need for attention.
Many clients are relieved knowing that there is someone available during the day to provide dog walking services. A dog walker is a great way to give your pet the exercise they need during the day. While in recent years the advent of "pet day care" facilities have provided relief to concerned pet owners, this process involves the daily transportation of your pet, to and from a day care location. This is time consuming, unnerving and potentially unhealthy for your pet.
Pet Sitter & Dog Walker
Houston Animal Sitting is a service provided by Alex Popovic-VerMilyea for residents of the Houston area who are looking for a responsible person to care for their pet without having to consider boarding in unfamiliar surroundings. As many pet owners will attest, the emotional impact of placing a pet into a kennel-style boarding situation for a few days or longer, also affects the physical well being and potential health of the pet.
Your pet will be staying in his or her own home, with all of the familiar surroundings, smells, food, toys and routines. The maintaining of familiarity in surroundings in your absence is likely one of the most loving things a busy professional can do to keep his or her pet healthy and happy while away from home. Houston Animal Sitting will keep your pet on a regular routine, diet, and most importantly make sure that your pet gets plenty of personal attention in your absence.

Like humans, dogs need mental and physical stimulation to keep them happy, content and healthy. None of us, human or dog, likes being left alone for long periods of time without interaction or sufficient exercise. This can result in behavioural problems such as barking, chewing and scratching. So what better way to ensure that your dogs get their exercise than to allow 1st4 London Dog Walking to help you.
The reasons why people come to 1st4 London Dog Walking are varied and no two clients are alike. Sometimes it is due to a change in circumstances and people may need some help for say 6 weeks while that skiing accident repairs itself. Often it is due to an increase in work levels and having less time.
Whatever the reason, responsible dog owners do not want their pooch to suffer. Neither do we, so we are available (even at short notice) to help the two of you out and make sure that your dog gets attention, fun and exercise.
Your dog, either with 1st4 London Dog Walking or yourselves, benefits from living in one the greenest capitals in the world, with over 600 garden squares, 148 parks and gardens, 122 heaths, commons and greens, 16 city farms, 8 royal parks and even 1 historic battlefield (in Barnet).
In Kensington and Chelsea, we are even luckier, with great flowering parks that regularly win Britain and London in Bloom awards, alhough we do have to respect some of the constraints.
1st4 London Dog Walking believes in using the parks to the maximum. We plan our routes to keep to quiet roads. Kensington and Chelsea has some lovely tree lined roads but we maximise the parks.
We don't agree with pack-walking which can compromise your dog's safety and it is a 1st4 London Dog Walking rule to have no more than 3 or 4 dogs on a walk at a time. This way we have complete control and can devote all our care and attention to a very small group.
London Dog Walking is available seven days a week, even at short notice. We will collect your dog on foot and give him a minimum 45 minute walk. Afterwards, we will return your dog home and, if you are out, we will ensure that fresh water is available and we will towel your dog down.
Los Angeles Puppy Walking, Dog Walkers & Pet Sitting
|Walk Fido
|Professional Dog Walking & Dog Training Downtown Los Angeles
|Why is it so important to walk your dog? Many dog owners are
so busy, it's hard enough to fit in potty time, feeding time and
snuggle time.
Yet, without daily walking, dogs become anxious and are prone to develop behavior problems. Exercise (walking) is the most important part of a dog's health. In the wild, dogs roam for miles every day and that natural instinct to roam is still present in all dogs -- even yours. All dogs have different levels of energy -- but even dogs with the lowest amount of energy need at least an hour of continuous exercise a day, most experts agree.
A tired dog is a well-behaved dog. Through regular walking, many behavior issues can begin to be resolved -- after a long walk, your dog is in a calm state of mind and is more receptive to training and behavior corrections.
Group Walks (6 or less dogs at a time, number depends on dogs and walker) -- Walk your dog for pre-arranged time, feed, water, and administer medications as necessary.
In-Home Consultations - Got a new puppy? Just rescued a dog? We will visit your home and walk you through all the basics...and some not-so basics. We will answer all of your questions and give you the tools you need to make your dog's life -- and yours! -- a happy, healthy one.
Any behavior issues you need help with? We will visit your home and work with you and your dog to understand the root of the issue and explore possible ways to solve the problem.
"While You're Away" Sitting -- 3 visits a day for 45 minutes a visit in your home. Whether you're on an extended vacation, or just happen to have a busy day and won't be home, we've got you covered.
Veterinarian Visits -- Take your dog to the vet for shots, grooming, check-ups and other appointments.
Grooming Visits -- Take your dog to Muttropolitan be groomed at your preferred groomer.
Park Trips -- We can tailor a park trip for your dog's specific needs. Long trips for energetic dogs, short ones for couch potatoes. Trips include hiking trails at Elysian Park.
Cat Sitting -- Feeding, watering, brushing, playing & cleaning of litter box.
Scheduling Policies
Same Day service fee is applied when walks are not scheduled at least 24 hours in advance.
Weekend services must be arranged by the Thursday evening prior to Friday - Sunday service. If arrangements or cancellations are not made the by Thursday prior to weekend service, additional charges will apply.
24-hour cancellation notice is required for all daily walking services. If 24-hour notice is not received, regular walk charges apply.

|Gotta Love'em Pet Sitting & Dog Walking Services
|Daily Visits: (Regular Visit) Daily visits are offered from
one to three times daily as morning, afternoon, and/or evening
visits. Our regular service hours are between 8am to 7pm. Visits
are approximately 30-45 minutes in length and include providing
fresh food and water, exercising and playing with your pet, yard
and/or litter box cleanup, and home security duties you would
like performed. Any medications are also administered at this
Add-On Time: (Extended Visit) If you feel your pet(s) would benefit from a longer visit than our normal 30-45 minute visits can provide, you can opt for add-on time for your pets in 15 minute increments! Maximum time per single visit is 1.5hrs so that we may visit other pets during the day.
Overnight Visits: (Extended Visit) Overnight visits are overnight stays in your home between the hours of 7:30pm and 7:30am,(or any other mutually agreed upon 12 hour time frame). All services offered in daily visits are included. This service is also recommended for pets who are very young, geriatric, on medication, or have separation anxiety.
Stay & Play Care (24hrs): (Extended Visit) Stay & Play Care - the perfect solution for some owners and pets for various reasons! Your pet sitter will stay in your home round-the-clock to care for your pets which gives the ultimate package of constant interaction and supervision - just as though you never left! Different from a house sitter, your pet sitter's main focus are your pets first, and your home secondary, although both are equally considered important. We do not provide home sitting services without pets at this time.
All services with regular pet sitting is included with the added feature of a 24-hour presence in the home. Because your pet sitter may have personal obligations to tend to at times, we allow up to a 4hr time break (by the hour, or block) per day for your pet sitter to leave your residence for personal errands. Stay & Play Care is offered at daily, weekly, or monthly rates.
Quick Stops/Puppy Checks: (Shorter Visits) Have a new puppy who just needs a potty break or a quick romp around the yard during the day? Or perhaps just a quick stop for that not-so-social kitty? Puppy Checks and Quick Stops are shorter versions of our regular daily visits (15 minutes) for those peek-in on pets who don't necessarily need full length visits and can be scheduled from one(1) to three(3) times daily.
Dog Walking: Dog walking services are 30, 45, or 60 minute walks and/or exercise out of the home. When available, you may choose from one(1) to five(5) dog walking days per week, Monday through Friday. For safety reasons, only two large dogs, or three small dogs may be walked at the same time. If you have more than these limits dogs, each pair/tri-group of dogs will be walked separately. Your dog(s) must be generally controllable while on a leash. There is no charge for dog walking during a regular pet sitting visit, if desired.
Bathing: Bathing is offered for both dogs and cats and is performed on the final day of pet sitting. Bathing includes bathing, drying, brushing, ear cleaning, and a nail trim. A suitable bathing area for this service must be available - (a tub or yard for dogs, or a sink for cats, etc.) To minimize stress, we recommend this service only to pets who are accustomed to being bathed. The owner is responsible for providing all bathing supplies such as shampoo, brushes, combs, towels, etc. Why not come home to a clean pet?
Pet Taxi: Our pet taxi service is offered between the hours of 7am and 7pm for both dogs and cats. Our pet taxi service can be used to transport your pets to and from grooming facilities, veterinary hospitals, or anywhere you would like! Dogs must exhibit general control while riding in a vehicle and cats must be secured in a carrier for their safety.
Medications: As an included service, your pet sitter will administer pill or apply cream medication to your pet(s) if needed. If your pet requires more complex medications such as IV fluids, insulin injections, or other non-pill or cream, please inquire. This service is invaluable where timely medication dosages are important to your pets health and well-being. Pets on medication receive priority in visit scheduling.
Private Boarding: Although we highly recommend keeping your pets at home for care, we also offer private boarding services for your dogs, cats, or small caged pets in our homes on a limited basis. We originally designed boarding services for the youngest pets (6wks-4months) who need more interaction and supervision than a regular or even an extended visit can provide, however, our boarding pet care providers do accept older pets on a case-by-case basis. Proof of vaccinations will be required for the safety of your pet as well as the health of your pet sitter's personal pets, if any.
All pets to be considered for boarding must be spayed/neutered, in good health, and non-aggressive towards animals or people. You may be requested to bring you pet to the home to evaluate his/her temperment prior to the stay. By using this service, you understand that your pet may be exposed to other pets and people, including children. Boarding is subject to availability and varies per location. We do not use cages or kennels except for sleeping hours, if necessary.
Holidays: Yes! We do provide services on holidays! Holiday dates incur a surcharge of $10.00-$15.00 in addition to the regular visit rate depending on the time of booking. Holiday surcharges apply to the following observed holidays: New Year's Day (Jan. 1st), Easter Sunday, Memorial Day, Fourth Of July, Labor Day, Halloween (Oct. 31st), Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve (Dec. 24th), Christmas Day (Dec. 25th), and New Year's Eve.
Customized Visit Schedules: Your pet sitting experience can be completely customized to meet you and your pets' specific needs! For example, you may choose to schedule one(1) visit per day on your day of departure or return, and two(2) visits in between. Or, in the case of your kitty who doesn't necessarily require daily visits, you may choose to schedule a visit every other day to "check up on things." There is no schedule set in stone and it's entirely up to you and what you feel would work best for your pet!
Pet Diaries & Email Updates: Because we know you're curious about the goings-on at home with your pets while you're away, we offer pet diaries or email updates of our activities for you to read! If you do not opt for email updates, we will leave you a record of our daily visits with your pets for you to read over when you return! We find this is an excellent way to keep you informed about what we did together, when we visited, observations with your home or pet that should come to your attention, etc during our pet sitting session! We may even share a few photos of your pets in action!

|A Leg Up
|Dog Walking:
Sure, we're a better dog walking company, for better dogs. But let's start with what dog walking should do for your pet—
Just like humans, a dog's mind must be kept active to be healthy and happy. Regular daytime activity provides mental stimulation. Along with the emotional benefits, there are the undeniable physical benefits. Even aging pets should be kept as agile and fit as possible but they may not be inclined to exercise without encouragement.
Dogs are social animals. They should be encouraged from a young age to greet and interact with other dogs and people. If a dog doesn't have the opportunity to socialize, it can't be expected to interact appropriately.
Prevention of Behavioural Problems:
A minimum of two walks daily help prevent elimination problems, destructiveness, separation anxiety and other common behaviour issues.

Tracey Emin and the Web confessional
Tracey Emin, the well-known modern artist who should have won the 1999 Turner Prize, but didn't, produces autobiographical art -- art which is about herself. Her works have included the famous embroidered tent Everyone I Have Ever Slept With 1963-95 (1995), the book about her childhood Exploration of the Soul (1994), the Tracey Emin Museum in a shop on Waterloo Road (1995-98), and her bed, My Bed (1998).
Critics were forced to note that, whether you liked it or not, the public visiting the Tate's exhibition were much more visibly engaged by Emin's work than that of the other Turner Prize nominees (including the eventual winner, Steve McQueen).
People are fascinated by the raw openness of her work.
What has this got to do with web culture? Well, Emin's controlled exhibition of self clearly has something in common with all those websites which people make about themselves [this one is not excluded from this point].
Art as confessional.
The artist as maverick, 'outsider' celebrity.
We love it.
The Web, of course, makes it easier for more people to have a go at this themselves, in a public space. The Web, in this way, is being Eminised by lots of people with a few bytes of webspace and a story to tell.
Whilse there is a certain amount of hype about the anonymity of the internet, most personal webpages are clearly authored by someone who is quite happy to be identified in a public space (like Tracey).
Emin has said: 'There should be something revelatory about art. It should be totally new and creative, and it should open doors for new thoughts and new experiences'.
Matthew Collings has written: "After [1993ish] I would see Tracey Emin at various gallery openings. She would just launch into talking about herself in a way that would have been quite strange if it was anyone else, and actually was quite strange when she did it, but she did it so often it began to seem normal. Which in a way is the story of her art." (Blimey!, 1997, p. 108).
And about My Major Retrospective, an early-ish autobiographical exhibition: "The exhibition told her life story in notes and diary and memorabilia form. It was a story which seemed tragic and hard and mostly set in Margate, with a disturbing streak of sexual abjection running through it. But it was full of passion and striving and liveliness. It was a good idea to do art that had a lot of feelings and warmth but some irony too." (Blimey!, 1997, p. 110).
Lots of people are doing a similar thing on the Web. They may not call it 'art' in the same way -- maybe it's part of a separate culture -- but it's made in the same spirit.

Patristic Quote for the Day
9 comments:
Hello Pastor Weedon. I find your quotes of the day to be rather stimulating to my thought processes. Today's is no exception. Can you explain this for a confused mind? Is this figurative language which addresses the reality of what Christ earned and did for us on the cross or is this saying that the saints or believers in Christ who died before His resurrection had their souls held captive in hell? Did their souls suffer there, or were they at rest with their Lord or were they in some void? What does the Bible teach about these things? I likely have completely misunderstood this quote. Can you enlighten me?
- William Weedon said...
Dear R.C.,
St. Peter Chrysologus is reflecting the ancient church's teaching that the dead prior to our Lord's victory over death descended into Hades - a two compartment Hades, where the unjust suffer torments and the just are comforted (think Lazarus and the Rich Man). At the decent into hell, our Lord empties Hades of the righteous and brings them into the promised paradise, but proclaims to the unjust his victory.
Some Scripture that points in this direction:
"No one has ascended into heaven except He who descended from heaven, even the Son of Man who is in heaven." John 3
"All these died without having received what was promised, that they should not be made perfect apart from us."
Heb. 11
"And the graves of many saints were opened and their bodies were raised and after his resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many." Matt 27
Luther, in his famous sermon on the Descent, speaks twice of our Lord "releasing the prisoners" by His coming into Hades.
The Catalog of Testimonies appended to the Lutheran Book of Concord cites St. Cyril also: "The soul, having obtained union with the Word, descended into hell; but using its divine power and efficacy, it said to the ones in bondage, 'Go forth!'" (Section VI)

Pastor Weedon,
I love your response. That JOHN 3:13 has become a mind bender, blower for me these past few years; I blame Dr. Luther. He has commented on that text in a few places, here is one:"So too, Christ says in John 3[:13], "No one has ascended into heaven but he who descended from heaven, the Son of man who is in heaven," whereby he shows indeed that his body is at the same time in heaven and on earth, yes, even at the ends of the earth. For by his glorification he did not become another person, but before as well as after was present everywhere.
… But what is the meaning of "Son of man—descended—ascended"? He speaks so clearly about the Son of man, as the one who came down among us and ascended again. Now of course it is certain that Christ did not come down or ascend according to his divinity, but according to his humanity. If Oecolampadius indeed wished to boast so haughtily, he should first prove that this text refers to Christ according to his divinity, and teach the meaning of descending and ascending, and expound the text carefully and cogently."
I hope that is not too much off of the subject. Why do you think that the REFORM explain the DESCEND INTO HELL ONLY UPON THE CROSS (Good Friday)? They really do not go any further than that. Any way hope all is well.

You know what that John 3 passage reminds me of? Someplace in Lord of the Rings, Tolkein talks about how the Elves who came to middle earth from the blessed realm actually live in both worlds at the same time. I think he stole it from John 3 and our Lord. He came to earth without leaving heaven.
- Wartburg said...
Pastor Weedon,
Thanks for the reply. I know NOTHING about The Lord of Rings.That part in it sounds really cool. Between all of these people wanting you to see C.S. Lewis movies, RING, I really can't put the PASSION in this list-what am I suppose to do? Hang out in a Movie joint?! Any way I did see the The Lion movie. I really think Lewis blew it. Where? Please comment on this-The part where the Lion goes into a tent to talk with EVIL about laying down His Life??? That looked like and sounded to much like the early heresy which stated that the atonement was to appease the evil one...No,No, No.
Please don't say it's only a movie and I'm reading too much into it. That's what I thought to myself and I've heard NO ONE else bring this observation to the public. What do you say?
- William Weedon said...
When it comes to whom the Ransom is offered to, I go with St. Gregory of Nazianzus: "don't go there." : )
We must now consider a problem and a doctrine often passed over silently, which in my view, nevertheless needs deep study. The blood shed for us, the most precious and glorious blood of God, the blood of the Sacrificer and the Sacrifice – why was it shed and to whom was it offered? We were under the reign of the devil, sold to sin, after we had gained corruption on account of our sinful desire. If the price of our ransom is paid to him who has us in his power, I ask myself: Why is such a price to be paid? If it is given to the devil, it is outrageous! The brigand receives the price of redemption. Not only does he receive it from God, he receives God Himself. For his violence he demands such a disproportionate ransom that it would be more just for him to set us free without ransom. But if the price is paid to the Father, why should that be done? It is not the Father who held us as His captives. Moreover, why should the blood of His only Son be acceptable to the Father, who did not wish to accept Isaac, when Abraham offered Him his son as a burnt-offering, but replaced the human sacrifice with the sacrifice of a ram? Is it not evident that the Father accepts the sacrifice not because He demanded it or had any need for it but by His dispensation? It was necessary that man should be sanctified by the humanity of God; it was necessary that He Himself should free us, triumphing over the tyrant by His own strength, and that He should recall us to Himself by His Son who is the Mediator, who does all for the honor of the Father, to whom He is obedient in all things… Let the rest of the mystery be venerated silently. (Oratian 45:22)
Now, because it was a story, Lewis expands a bit beyond the boundaries, but what he's trying to get at is that evil in its greediness to destroy, actually attempts to kill Him who indestructible Life and that is evil's undoing! In that sense, there's no problem with the scene. Evil or death or Satan or however you want to put it, does greedily gobble down Christ. HUGE mistake. Glory be to God!

Pastor Weedon,
Thank You ever so much for this answer. I was against that sceen but I did not trumpet a voice against it; I just kind of thought it to myself but I did share those thoughts with my beloved kids. Don't you know my 12-year-old son reminded me of what I said month's later but it was in an o.k. context. I am going to read your response to both of my children and "Gregory" as well. The whole of what "Gregory" has said is excellent. The most striking part to me is this: "…who did not wish to accept Isaac, when Abraham offered Him his son as a burnt-offering, but replaced the human sacrifice with the sacrifice of a ram?" There is so much to say here, I'll just let the mans word stand (excellent). Our beloved Dr. Luther has written some where (I can't find it right now, I wish I could) that Jesus Our LORD on THE CROSS was like bait on a hook for Our Adversary. He took the bait and swallowed the hook and ripped up his whole insides (something like that). Thank you much.
- William Weedon said...
That's an old Patristic image too. And a juicy one. First that I remember it is Nyssa. He wrote this:
"In order to secure that the ransom in our behalf
might be easily accepted by him who required it, the Deity was hidden
under the veil of our nature, so that, as with a ravenous fish, the
hook of the Deity might be gulped down along with the bait of the
flesh, and thus life being introduced into the house of death and light
shining in darkness, that which is diametrically opposed to light and
life might vanish; for it is not in the nature of darkness to remain
when light is present, or of death to exist when life is active." (St.
Gregory of Nyssa, The Great Catechism, chapter XXIV)
Isn't that great? There's a great hymn by St. Romanus the Melodist that gets at the same idea. Only in that hymn Satan is celebrating the crucifixion while death/hell is screaming out that it's being destroyed!
Check it out:
Pilate fixed three crosses on Golgotha: two for the thieves, and one for the Giver of life. When Hell saw it, he said to those below, "My ministers and powers, who has fixed a nail in my heart? A wooden lance has suddenly pierced me and I am being torn apart! My insides are in pain, my belly in agony, my senses make my spirit tremble, and I am compelled to disgorge Adam and Adam's race. All men were given to me by the Garden's tree–but now a tree is bringing them back again to Paradise."
When he heard this, Satan, the cunning serpent ran crawling and said, "What is it, hell? Why do you groan for no reason? Why produce these wailings? This Tree, at which you tremble, I carpentered up there for Mary's Child. I suggested it to his enemies for our advantage, for it is a Cross, to which I have nailed Christ, wishing by a tree to do away with the second Adam, just as I did away with the first one. So do not be afraid. It is dry and barren. It will not harm you. Keep hold of those you have. Of those we rule, not one will escape again to Paradise."
Hell replied to Satan, "You have lost your senses–you, the cunning snake of old! All your wisdom has been swallowed up by the cross, and you have been caught in your own snare. Lift up your eyes and see that you have fallen into the pit you dug! Behold that Tree, which you call dry and barren, bears fruit: a thief tasted it and has become heir to the good things of Eden. Moses' rod led the people out of Egypt, but this tree brings mankind back again to Paradise."
Satan answered, "Wretched hell–cease this cowardly talk! Your words reveal your thoughts. Are you afraid of a cross and of the Crucified? Not one of your words has shaken me, for these deeds are part of my plan. I will also open a grave and entomb Christ, so that you may enjoy your cowardice doubly–from his tomb as well as from his cross. When I see you, I will mock you. For when Christ is buried I will come to you and say, "Who now brings Adam back again to Paradise?"
Then hell spoke back, "Now is the moment for you to listen, Satan. Now you will see the power of the Cross and the great authority of the Crucified. For you, the cross is folly. But the world sees it as a throne, on which, as though seated, Jesus is nailed and hears the thief cry to him, 'Lord, remember me in your kingdom.' Listen now as he answers, kingly, 'Today, poor beggar, you will reign with me. For with me, you will go in again to Paradise."
At these words, Satan began to wilt, and what he heard he saw: a thief witnessing to Christ crucified. And so, amazed, he struck his breast and said, "Christ did not answer his accusers, and yet he speaks to a thief? To Pilate he never spoke a word; but now he addresses a murderer, saying, "Come, live in pleasure"? What is this? Who has seen words or deeds done by this thief, by means of which he goes again to Paradise?
Again the devil called out, "Receive me, Hell. I turn to you; I submit to your views, I, who did not believe them. I saw the Tree at which you shuddered, made red with blood and water. And I shuddered, not, I tell you, at the blood, but at the water. For the blood shows Jesus' slaughter, but the water shows his life, for life has gushed from his side. For it was not the first but the second Adam who carried Eve, the mother of all the living, again to Paradise."
Now Hell and Satan cried out together, "Let us lament as we see the Tree which we planted transformed into a holy trunk, beneath which thieves, murderers, tax collectors and harlots will find shelter, and reap sweet fruit from what seemed barren. For they cling to the Cross as the Tree of Life. Pressed against it and swimming, through it they escape, and come again as to a harbor, again to Paradise."
Hell said to Satan, "Swear, tyrant, finally to crucify no one." And Satan replied, "You take an oath to kill no one. We have had our experience, let us draw back our hand. Let neither of us ever again tyrannize the race of Adam, for it has been sealed by the Cross, it has been given life, like a treasure of a precious pearl in a fragile pot; life, which a thief, well-suited to his trade, took on the Cross. For stealing he was nailed up to die ; and having thieved he was called again to Paradise."
O most high and glorious, God of fathers and of youths, your willing outrage has become our honor. For in your Cross, we all may boast. To it we have nailed our hearts, that on it we may hang our instruments and sing to you, the Lord of all, from the songs of Zion. The ship from Tarshish once brought gold to Solomon; but to us your Tree gives back, every day and every moment, wealth beyond price. For it brings us all again to Paradise.

Pastor Weedon,
Glory is to God. What excellence of speech and thought in mind at work in Gregory of Nyssa. Such a man spent and was spent for the cause of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Exhausting thoughts from so many centuries ago. Rich in taste and costly perfume. "The Father of Father's" as well as "The Star of Nyssa". Thank you for your care and impute. I actually pulled down Vol. 5 of the "Nicene and Post-Nicene FATHERS" and have begun to search.

Nintendogs: Lab & Friends
Review by Cpang88
"PUPPIES! Puppies everywhere!!"
What could be better than having your own puppy? How about three? I thought so, you bastard dog hater, go away now and stop reading this if you don't like little puppies, because I can tell you now this game's not for you. And for the rest of you that are still here, hi, my name's Chris. <_< This is getting side-tracked...
So.. dogs... I like em, I also liked this game. Connection? Maybe. I think that anyone who feels the same about dogs will find a good time in this game.
Basic backround... well... this game doesn't have one, you start out with $1000 which you use to buy your first puppy and things to take care of it. After you've been together with your dog long enough you can enter him or her in contests to make more money, which you can use to buy another puppy, more supplies, or even a nicer house.
Gameplay - 10/10
The biggest turn on in the game is easily the gameplay, it's a wonderful system of interaction between you and your dog. I love the way they use the mic and touch screen as ways to interact with the puppies. You actually call them by name to get their attention. All the things you can train them to do, and all the items you can find to increase the bonding between you and your dogs really makes this a beautiful game for dog lovers of any age. It's simple enough so that anyone who wasn't played games before could pick this up and learn quite easily. One of the most fun features, in my opinion, is that you can have multiple dogs. It's incredibly fun watching them interact with eachother, playing around, or fighting for a chew toy. Although it does become a hassle when it's time to train them. I love being able to raise my own puppy through this wonderful sim, and although it's not a perfect sim, it comes incredibly close to being a perfect game.
Graphics - 9/10
Very nicely done, the puppies sometimes look real. Definitely not it's greatest feature, but also a very nice point of the game. The graphics should never get in your way as you play the game, but I doubt there will be times when you're simply awed by them. I like the way the puppies look and move, they act just like real puppies. The only thing that is off are the ways the puppies interact, often times, when one goes to nibble on the other's ear, it'll "slip" and look like it's chewing the air next to it's neck. Although it's not something that will affect the gameplay at all.
Sound - 8/10
I love the music in this game, it's very soothing and fun to listen to, the only problem is that there's not enough of it. My favorite music in it is the song that plays just as you turn it on... The first time I really noticed it I was having a few problems with someone important to me, now whenever I hear that I'll remember it and how happy I was afterwards... I got off topic again, dammit! OK... The sound... Yes... Well, the sound effects are very well done, the bark from the puppy doesn't sound exact, but fairly realistic. Sound is another thing in the game that will make it enjoyable, but not hinder it.
Replay - 6/10
Not too great... Although the wonderful thing about this game is that it doesn't need replay, it's always new, but if you do choose to start over, it's a pain in the ass. Although some people may enjoy reteaching a dog everything and winning all those competitions again, I find it tedious and annoying. So, if that's your thing, great, but it wasn't mine.
Overall - 10/10
A great game for anyone who likes dogs, no matter how old they may be. If you happen to see a copy, pick it up immediately, I couldn't find any for awhile, and I happened to get the last copy at the store I went to. The gameplay, combined with the nice graphics, cute puppies, and nice sounds make this game almost immediately enjoyable. And don't think that I may just be some fanboy for dogs since it seems like a dull game from my review, I barely touched the surface of the deepness you can find in it.

Under The Knife
Life Goes On
"In three words, I can sum up everything I know about life: it goes on." Robert Frost was correct; it does. For the past few weeks, life seemed to come to a screeching halt, but it goes on. My mother, after a long battle with melanoma, passed on Saturday. We had her memorial on Tuesday evening, which means that it's time for me to go on. This column drives me, and to stop seemed almost unnatural, as if it was the opposite of what she would have wanted. She didn't like baseball, but she understood that I had a passion for it, and she supported that passion. She liked seeing me on TV, more because it made me dress better than for anything I had to say. She left me with a drive to do something, not just to write, but to make a difference. Over the next few weeks, you'll see the start of something that I hope is big. I'll be teaming up with the Shade Foundation to help raise awareness and research to keep someone else's mother from going through what mine did. In the meantime, it goes on.
Before we start, one quick note: I'm not going to try and catch up. In the six years that UTK has existed, I never took this much time off during the season, in large part because of a fear that no one would miss it. Now, faced with that, I'm just going to move on as if I'd written yesterday's column. Injuries that are important tend to linger, so we'll hit them eventually.
Powered by memory, back to the injuries:
In better news for Phillies phans, both Shane Victorino and Michael Bourn are making progress from their leg injuries. Victorino will be back much more quickly from his calf strain, perhaps as early as Wednesday's game, while Bourn is just beginning to run and should be back during the first week of September.
Elsewherre, the Braves have pushed starter Chuck James to the DL. James has been shelled lately and reports of shoulder tightness were enough for them to give him some time off. The shoulder is reportedly not painful, just tight and not allowing him to get to his normal arm slot and release point in his delivery. The team will use the DL stint to try and calm the shoulder, making sure his mechanics are sound before sending him back out there in early September.
The news isn't as good for Jason Jennings. His tenure with the Astros will end with surgery to repair a torn flexor tendon near his elbow. He should be recovered early next spring, though expecting him back for spring training will be pushing it. Given the exceptionally thin pitching market this winter, Jennings is still likely to get a Mark Mulder-like deal. In some good news, Hunter Pence was activated, although there may still be some bat control issues.
Quick Cuts: We'll deal with Kirk Radomski later. Suffice it to say that it's not good, and that unlike Mark McGwire, he doesn't mind talking about the past. ... The Dodgers are trying to find rest for Russell Martin, but they're doing a bad job of it. An interesting thought--is there a "catch count" or some kind of innings limit on catchers? ... Follow me.... Rich Harden is throwing long toss, but it's looking less likely that there will be any sort of return to the mound this season. Unlike last year, there's no pressing need besides trying to figure out what kind of future Harden has. ... Mike Sweeney reluctantly heads out on a rehab assignment. He thought he didn't need it, but the Royals did; he should be back with the team on September 1. ... Joel Zumaya was activated on Tuesday and looked solid. ... Zach Duke will make a start Wednesday in Bradenton. If it goes well, he'll be back for the Pirates in September. If not, he'll be shut down. ... Jason Hirsh has begun long tossing. His comeback from a broken fibula is moving along nicely, meaning he could be back in the rotation shortly. ... I cannot thank you, my readers and friends, enough for the thoughts and prayers. They mean more than I can say.

If there is space available on the cruise, they can get you on. Call the cruise line and ask them. They can email you your information or even over night the paper documents to you if need be.
Your only issues may be getting airfare if needed but even that is still outside the typical 14 day advanced booking timeframe.

SALT LAKE CITY, July 25 /PRNewswire/ -- ZARS, Inc., announced today that it commenced the first of two Phase 3 clinical trials of ThermoProfen(TM) in patients with mild to moderate osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee on June 26, 2007.
The Company plans to conduct two, 12-week, three arm, double blind Phase 3 efficacy trials within the United States in patients with mild to moderate OA of the knee. These trials will be conducted with ThermoProfen, a matrix transdermal ketoprofen patch with an integrated CHADD(TM) (Controlled Heat-Assisted Drug Delivery) unit. In each of the two Phase 3 trials, 1500 patients will be randomized to one of three treatment groups to receive: ThermoProfen, a ketoprofen control (a patch with drug but no heat), or a heat control (a patch with heat but no drug). The primary measure of efficacy will be the patient's report of average pain intensity over the last 24 hours at Week 12. A predefined interim analysis will be conducted after approximately 100 patients in each group have completed the first study to determine if the projected number of 500 patients in each of the three groups will be sufficient to demonstrate a statistically significant difference in the primary efficacy endpoint. ThermoProfen is expected to provide localized pain relief with lower systemic levels than oral administration of ketoprofen, and is expected to reduce the frequency of adverse effects of oral ketoprofen and other oral NSAIDs.
"We believe that ThermoProfen could address the significant medical need of patients suffering from OA while at the same time lowering the risk of the negative side effects associated with chronic NSAID use," said Robert Lippert, President and Chief Executive Officer, ZARS. "These trials, assuming that they are successful, are intended to provide the pivotal data to support global marketing applications for ThermoProfen."
In addition to the two efficacy trials, an open-label safety trial will be conducted. In the safety trial, patients who complete either of the two efficacy trials will be able to use one or two ThermoProfen patches daily for up to one year. The Company also plans to initiate a two-year preclinical dermal carcinogenicity study.
About OA
OA is a disease of the joints that causes erosion of cartilage and leads to friction between bones. Based on data from IMS Health, we estimate that 6.5 million people in the United States have mild to moderate pain associated with OA of the knee. We believe that the number of individuals with OA of the knee will increase due to the growing U.S. population, shifting age demographics and additional factors including obesity that can increase the prevalence of OA. The two most common treatments for the pain associated with OA of the knee are non-selective and COX-2 selective NSAIDs.
About ZARS, Inc.
ZARS, Inc. is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of topically applied drugs using its proprietary drug delivery technologies, primarily in the area of pain management. ZARS has developed a portfolio of proprietary products and product candidates based on its Controlled Heat-Assisted Drug Delivery (CHADD) and its phase-changing cream (Peel and DuraPeel(TM)) technologies. The Company's products and product candidates include two products that have been approved for marketing (Pliaglis(TM) and Synera(TM)), one product candidate for which it has initiated the first of two Phase 3 clinical trials (ThermoProfen) and two product candidates which are in Phase 1 clinical trials.
