How do i get the shard on the ghost ship?
Please help? m2thejc - 11 years ago
Top Voted Answer
To do all of this, you must have first completed the
Wind Temple. To board the ghost ship, go to Diamond Steppe island.
From your boat, find the closest tree to the coast and hook onto
it with your hookshot. Continue hooking onto trees until you get
to the top, where you will find a hole. Drop down to find the
remains of a pirate ship. Burn the lids off the pots, and you
will eventually find a treasure chest with the ghost ship chart.
Without this, if you try to get onto the ship, it will disappear.
The chart will tell you where the ship will appear, It only appears
at night. It is a transparent ship with blue flames around it.
When you enter it, you will fight a series of enemies (there are
small pillars of light for Poes). When you are done with those,
you can grab your Triforce Chart. An eerie laugh will sound and
the ship will disappear. DragonoidDelta - 11 years ago
To enter the ghost ship you have to calide head to head with it i think but ya get the ghost ship chart first like the guy above said pie64 - 11 years ago
You have to have the hookshot. Once you have that, go to Diamond steppe island and hookshot up on the island. Go through the hole at the top. Blow up the wood on top of the pot and go through it. Next, go straight and turn right to destroy a floormaster. Blow up the wood on the pot to the right and go through. Now go and kill any floormasters, then blow up the jar on the left. go through it to find a chest with the ghost ship chart in it. Now go out to sea and check your chart to see where the ghost ship is (not the ghost ship chart). Warp to the island nearest to the ship and sail there before morning. Guide your ship to the center of the ship. Next thing you know, your in the ghost ship. Good luck. hevymetlman - 11 years ago

Re: Question
The spell is not named, although there's a possibility it's Aqua Eructo. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 14:30, September 2, 2009 (UTC)
- Maybe you're right... But in the Cave, Dumbledore actually conjures fire, he does not control an already existant source of fire. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 18:32, September 2, 2009 (UTC)
- Maybe you don't have to. All we know about the spell is that it conjures a ring of flames. We do not know, however, if the spell simply creates fire, which can be forced into a ring-like shape with the aid of another spell, or if the spell is supposed to actually create a ring of fire. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 18:43, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

White Sox right-hander Hector Noesi gave a simple reason for the Tigers' four-run surge against him Wednesday during his 5-1 loss at U.S. Cellular Field.
He was tired.
Noesi made it through three scoreless innings before the Tigers solved him their second time through the order with a four-run fourth inning. The Tigers didn't need much more offense than that as the Sox fizzled with just one ninth-inning run in the final game of April.
After losing both games in the home series, the Sox dropped to 2-4 against the Tigers this season.
"I got tired," Noesi said. "I haven't thrown that much a lot."
Sox manager Robin Ventura hadn't expected more than four or five innings from Noesi, and he got 3 2/3.
Noesi retired nine straight batters after allowing a leadoff single to Ian Kinsler. Torii Hunter started the fourth with a double, and the Tigers put together three more hits and a walk as Bryan Holoday's two-run double ended Noesi's day.
Sox catcher Tyler Flowers said that aside from a few bad pitches, he was impressed with how Noesi, 27, threw in a difficult situation.
"He just kind of fell behind a couple of guys, made some mistakes in that inning," Flowers said. "But I definitely like his arm. He's a very talented pitcher."
Scherzer allowed only four hits with three walks and seven strikeouts over seven six innings. He stranded two Sox runners on base in three of the first four innings.
Sox relievers Jake Petricka, Zach Putnam, Maikel Cleto and Daniel Webb provided an opening for a comeback as they limited the Tigers to one unearned run over the final 5 1/3 innings. But the Sox had only one baserunner — Dayan Viciedo with a double — in the fifth through eighth innings.
Viciedo added another double in the ninth and Flowers singled him in to avoid the shutout.
Sox shortstop Alexei Ramirez broke the franchise record for hits in April with a single to right field in the fourth inning. His 40 hits to eclipse Paul Konerko's 39 in 2002. Ramirez said through a team interpreter that Konerko let him know about the record Tuesday and congratulated him in front of the dugout Wednesday.
"It has been one of my best starts," Ramirez said. "I give credit to the work I've done, so it's a great thing."
The Sox begin a three-game set against the Indians on Friday before returning to Chicago for the four-game city series with the Cubs that begins Monday at Wrigley Field.
Ventura said he is not worried about his team bouncing back on offense as it moves into a new month.
"You'd like (April) to be better, obviously," Ventura said. "(But) dealing with injuries and stuff like that, at least we're still in the mix. Guys, offensively, had a good month."

The footnotes of pop are littered with all sorts of heroic but arguably pointless enterprises. The itinerary of Echo and the Bunnymen's Scottish tour in 1983 would have been much simpler had their manager, Bill Drummond, not insisted that their route form the shape of a bunny's head when seen on the map. How many people actually went to the trouble of listening to the Flaming Lips' Zaireeka as it was supposed to be heard – four CDs played concurrently to form a composite piece of music? To this you might be moved to add The Ram Project by Dave Depper. This year, Depper – frequent collaborator with acclaimed Portland indie players such as the Decemberists and Jolie Holland – embarked on his debut album. He had several of his own songs, but the record he really wanted to make was Paul McCartney's homespun 1971 masterpiece Ram. "I didn't want to interpret Ram," he clarifies, "I wanted to see how close I could get to the original. I felt that if found a way to do that, then I would somehow earn the entitlement to make my own record."
To this end, Depper says he almost lost his mind. Over the course of a month, he squirreled himself away. Starting with "simpler songs like Heart of the Country", he hoped that, in time, the secrets of, say, Long-Haired Lady – all dreamy strings and harmonies – would reveal themselves. Perhaps the biggest challenge, he adds, is that he only had one mic and one input. "I had to record each drum individually. By the end, I had gone a little bit Howard Hughes," he says. "Unshaved, not eating … that kind of thing." Would anyone buy the Ram Project instead of Ram? Probably not. But if you like Macca's original, you would surely be as charmed by Depper's efforts as his label City Slang (European home to Lambchop and Calexico, among others) was when it agreed to release it.
Perhaps the most surprising thing about albums such as The Ram Project – track-for-track covers of other people's albums by a single artist – is how few have been made. As the group who did more than any other to establish the album as a self-contained work of art, it isn't surprising that the Beatles have prompted the most tributes. Appearing within months of Abbey Road, Booker T & the MGs' version, McLemore Avenue, appeared in the obligatory cross-road pastiche sleeve. Slinky, Hammond-driven versions of Carry That Weight and Come Together may sound appealing, but it was an underwhelming affair. Shortly after scoring a hit with their prom-shuffle treatment of Bruce Springsteen's Dancing in the Dark, Los Angeles's Big Daddy did Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band as though it were recorded in a 1960s where the Beatles had never existed: a crackingly Dionish She's Leaving Home; Lovely Rita in the style of His Latest Flame. In 1987, Laibach explained why they took to covering Let It Be in its entirety (bar, mystifyingly, its title track). Citing the NME's 1970 burial of the Beatles' swansong (the music weekly called it "a cheapskate epitaph"), Slovenia's solemn, four-headed totalitarian answer to Frank Sidebottom declared: "What we are doing is rewriting history, which, every now and then, has to be corrected and reinterpreted to be useful for the future."
In their way, that's also what Camper Van Beethoven – best known for their 1986 indie hit Take the Skinheads Bowling – were doing when they gave themselves four days to rerecord Fleetwood Mac's monolithic 1979 double album Tusk. "People have come around to Tusk," says Camper Van Beethoven frontman David Lowery. "Certainly, this was not a record that any hipster would have touched when we decided to remake it." Nevertheless, following a 10-year hiatus (in which Lowery achieved mainstream success with Cracker), the newly reformed group zealously set about the challenge in 2002. "In part, we were inspired by Pussy Galore and their 1986 recreation of Exile On Main Street. I love it, even if some songs kind of fall apart halfway through."
Conscious that this was a bizarre way to herald their return, Camper Van Beethoven constructed an implausible backstory to go with their Tusk. "We said that we had originally made it in a four-track recorder in 1987, whilst we were trapped in the snow in a mountain cabin. None of that was true, but the way we actually recorded it was consistent with the story. For instance, we used a 1987 Drumulator machine because, like in the story, our drummer supposedly broke his arm." The best thing about CVB's Tusk is the way it exaggerates the extremes of the original. The barely suppressed mania of Lindsey Buckingham's performance on Not That Funny is supersized; coming in just shy of 10 minutes, the title track makes room for a psychedelic melange of nightmarish varispeeded crashes and chants. In this environment of high-speed problem solving, CVB even manage to salvage something of value out from the witchy platitudes of Stevie Nicks's Sisters of the Moon. "Nobody wanted to do that one," recalls Lowery. "That's why we got the computer to sing it."
To compare albums such as Camper Van Beethoven's Tusk and Depper's Ram (a list to which we can also add the Chrysanthemums' 1992 version of the Zombies' Odessey & Oracle) to their original counterparts is to perhaps miss the point. They're closer in spirit to the no-budget YouTube remakes of era-defining movies such as Star Wars and A Nightmare On Elm Street – or perhaps even the boy protagonist in Son of Rambow, whose interior world is consumed by Sylvester Stallone's Vietnam veteran. When Beck started his Record Club in 2009, it seemed to stem from a similar impulse. Every few weeks, Beck and musical chums such as Thurston Moore and Leslie Feist would get together and record their version of an album. The first one to be accorded the Record Club treatment was The Velvet Underground and Nico, featuring an I'll Be Your Mirror reminiscent of Beck's own Jack-Ass. However, by the time, they got around to overhauling INXS's inescapable 1987 album Kick, you suspected that their motives had moved far closer to those of Stewart Lee when he announced his plans to deliver a word-for-word recital of a Michael McIntyre show in a bid to see if anything of worth could be salvaged from it. By those criteria, it wasn't unsuccessful. A breathily sensuous treatment of New Sensation, featuring vocals from St Vincent's Annie Clark, wiped the floor with the horrid Clarkson-funk of the original.
However, the majority of cover albums stem from more pragmatic motives. They exist to cash in on the continuing interest for albums whose iconic status is assured. As the head of Easy Star Records in New York, Michael Goldwasser has overseen roots reggae reconfigurations of albums that sit in the latter category: Dark Side of the Moon, Sgt Pepper and OK Computer. Just as Little Roy had never heard a single Nirvana song before being approached to record his new Nirvana covers album, Battle for Seattle, Goldwasser concedes an element of opportunism about the Easy Star homages – which feature a house band playing alongside vocal turns from Toots Hibbert and the late Sugar Minott.
As a reggae fan and the records' arranger, Goldwasser voices frustration at the perception of the genre in his own country as music for your holiday playlist. "If you can use Radiohead as a Trojan horse for an entire genre that some Radiohead fans may have dismissed out of hand, then why not?" It can work the other way, too. Goldwasser remembers Sugar Minott in the studio struggling to envisage Exit Music (From a Film) as a reggae song. "But in the end he fell in love with it." So, to Goldwasser's immense gratification, did Radiohead, who took to airing the album before coming on stage.
Like Radiohead, the music of Pink Floyd proves surprisingly adept at travelling from one genre to another. Ten years ago, Roger Waters's soul-searching opus The Wall received a country overhaul from Canadian troupe Luther Wright and the Wrongs. The idea to cover it, says Wright, came in a single serendipitous flash. "It was playing on the van radio and we noticed a lot of minor-key country riffs on it. At the same time, we're from Canada, not Cambridge – so we changed the lyrics in order to make it true to rural life. When the time came to play it live, I arranged to have a wall of hay bales built around me instead of bricks." Somehow, it's no surprise to find that the only modern record Waters has purported to like in recent memory is one filled with his songs. "It's fantastic," he chirped in 2007. "I can thoroughly recommend it."
For Depper, a similar response from McCartney would mean a lot. Macca's original version of Ram was credited to him and his wife Linda. Depper too, enlisted the help of his wife, Joan Hiller, to record vocals on The Ram Project but, alas, they separated shortly after Depper thumped the very last bass drum on Back Seat of My Car. "Last week," says Depper, "I spent $45 on a package addressed to 1 Soho Square [the address of McCartney's HQ]. I don't know if it will ever reach him, but a thumbs-up from him would make it all worthwhile." Are you reading, Sir Paul?
The Ram Project is out now on City Slang.

We knew we had to do something big to start off the new year, we just weren't sure what it was going to be. Everything has been so hectic lately, from travelling around during the holidays, to me being laid off (don't worry, I work seasonally so I always get laid off in January). But back to the point, we had to make a plan and take action. Our final decision – do a No Spending Month.
Honestly, I'm hoping this No Spending Month will turn into a sort of No Spending Year – inspired by Cait Flanders who did a Yearly Shopping Ban to help pay off all her debt – but we'll see how it goes. It's hard to set it in stone given that we will be working on lots of projects in the coming months, and hopefully (FINGERS CROSSED) we will be building our very own Tiny House this summer.
But the great thing about setting goals about saving money is that you can make your own rules. Nobody is going to tell you that it's wrong to do this, or it's not OK to do that. It's all up to you. So a No Spending Challenge might look a little bit different for every person. That's the beauty of it.
For us, saving money by "not spending," means:
- No coffee or tea when we're out of the house
- No restaurants
- No takeout
- No concerts (unless we receive or win free tickets)
- No new clothes
- No cosmetics (that's on my end, obviously)
- No new books, notebooks, and movies
- No new guns (Max, I hope you're reading this!)
- No new tools (unless it is absolutely necessary – one exception will be a tool we need to fix a part on our car because in the end it will save us money by doing it ourselves)
- No household items*
- No new electronics or appliances
Basically, no buying things just for the sake of purchasing something. No splurging. No treating ourselves to something nice. Instead, we will find joy in what we already have, and make the most of our time doing activities that don't cost any money.
Another thing that we always add onto our list when it comes to a No Spending Challenge is minimizing our grocery shopping. Given the fact that we stockpile, we are able to take this month (or any month we choose to spend less money) and try to use as much of our staple foods as possible. We also have lots of soup in the freezer, so those are on the menu this month as well.
Speaking of menu, let's talk about Meal Planning. This is one of the greatest things I have ever discovered, in terms of trying to save money. I urge you all to start planning your meals, even if you don't always stick to it. Having a list of 7 meals each week makes grocery shopping easier, more convenient, and best of all – CHEAPER! So start now, you literally have nothing to lose. Except your money, if you don't do it.
The only things we will be paying for this month are the following:
- Rent (because we would rather not be evicted)
- Electricity Bill
- Internet Bill
- Phone Bill
- Gas
- Car Insurance
- Groceries (Budget is set at $100 for the entire month)
- Household Necessities (if we run out of toilet paper, or more importantly, salt for the driveway!)
Aside these things, there will be exceptions. I have lots of DIY projects planned for the blog that I am so excited to share with you all, but to be able to do that, I have to spend a bit of money. I've decided that the No Spending Challenge will be focusing on personal finances only, that way we can separate the spending being done on Tiny Adventure's expenses. The only other exception I can think of is if we want to go out and use our gift cards that we received for Christmas – I swear if we don't use them, we always end up losing them.
If you like the idea of our No Spending Challenge, why don't you join us, even if you just start today – any progress is a step closer to reaching your goals! We'd love to hear from you in the comments, let us know what you think and how you would go about doing your own No Spending Month.

Cancer Epidemic Shadow of the Conquest of Nature
Booth, Gotthard
The wide publicity given to statistical surveys of cigarette and other tobacco habits in terms of an etiological factor in lung cancer has relegated to the background many other possible components, particularly in the sphere of personality and emotional constellations. This work presents Gotthard Booth's studies of persons who developed cancer, with observations and an experimental approach, the results of which are given in categories of Rorschach responses in order to gain information about the subjects' personalities in terms of intellectual function, emotional control, present content, mental conflicts, creative imagination, and fundamental instinctive drives. From these studies and from the known aspects of the cancer situation the author suggests that cancer is an expression of the personality type. Rich in new ideas with a wealth of informative material to be considered in practical applications, not only in the field of psychopathology but also in general medicine.
". . . offers a wealth of suggestive insights. . . . Medical research too often accepts the Faustian myth of objective knowledge and external control, thereby losing the human meaning of disease. Recommended for advanced seminary and college courses exploring human nature, and for all who care for cancer patients." - John C. Hoffman in Religious Studies Review

Concert Review: Lucero, New Years Eve, Boston
"Why is Aimz going to see Lucero on New Years Eve? Has she lost her mind?" - My Latin friend Isabel referring to the Mexican soap opera/pop music star.
I know people hate New Years Eve, and that it's "amateur night," and blah, blah, blah, but damn I love ringing in the new year by rocking out! For the last four or five years I have spent my New Years Eve in Toronto at the Horseshoe Tavern having The Sadies start my year off by giving me significant hearing damage. But I no longer live in Toronto, and haven't lived in Boston long enough to find a local favorite band. So when I saw that Lucero was playing a New Years Eve gig in Boston at the Paradise Rock Club (within stumbling distance of my home) I jumped to my keyboard and bought tickets off of the Lucero web site pronto!
This was Lucero's first New Years Eve gig outside of Memphis, and they pulled out all of the stops. The band dressed up! Lead singer Ben Nichols wore a coat, button-down shirt, and tie, with a hat. This outfit freaked me out because I have only ever seen Nichols in a white V-neck T-shirt. Bassist John C. Stubblefield was dressed like one of the Blues Brothers, and keyboardist Rick Steff donned a dapper coat. Lead guitarist Brian Venable apparently said, "fuck this" and wore his usual T-shirt with cut off sleeves and a baseball hat. Awesome.
The audience was really great. The show was nearly sold out, yet there was no beer-throwing or an overabundance of moshing that has plagued other Lucero shows that I have attended (see Toronto, October 20, 2009). I don't know if this good behavior was due to extra security at the Paradise, or if Boston fans are more civilized, or if there weren't any kids/students in town due to winter break (or a little of all three). Regardless, this was the first Lucero show that I have been to where I didn't have to take a shower and do laundry to wash all of the flying Coors Light off of me at the end of the night.
Lucero opened the show with "That Much Further West." They brought the horn section! Two dudes: one on trumpet and one switching between tenor and baritone saxophones. "West" was followed by the heart breaker "Nights Like These." And in terms of set list.....that's all I got. Hey! It was New Years and I was busy getting drunk!
I can always say, "I'm sorry I's drunk," so many times 'til it doesn't mean much.
Last Night in Town.mp3
Buy (mp3): Nobody's Darlings (2005)
The set list was probably very similar to the Dec 30 set in New York. I do remember them doing many songs from their 2009 album 1372 Overton Park, a few new ones from their upcoming release Women & Work, and the requisite Nichols solo mini-set. I also remember that they did not do very many songs, if any, from the 2006 release Rebels, Rogues, and Sworn Brothers, which is my favorite from the Lucero catalog.
Sing Me No Hymns.mp3
Buy: Rebels, Rogues & Sworn Brothers (2006)
I don't think that they played this on New Years, but I don't care. It is a bad-ass song.
The weird part about Lucero shows is that there is so much bro-mance at thees gigs. You would think that with a male to female ratio of about 5 to 1 that a girl could get a midnight kiss. But no! Then again, I did wreak of beer. Shouldn't that be a turn on?
It was really cold in Boston that night, so there was a significant lineup for the coat check at the end of the show. Huge coat check lines are presumably not an issue in Memphis. The cool part about waiting around for my jacket is that the musicians came out and talked to the fans after the show. Despite being drunk as hell I got to chat with Steff and tell him about much his rock piano rules. And I gave a big drunken hug to Nichols of my way out. (How embarrassing am I? WTF is wrong with me?)
I must compliment the staff of the Paradise on throwing a really good New Years party. They provided goofy party hats and horns, plus balloons at midnight, and the bartenders were quick with the drinks. The security dudes were really friendly and professional. It was a great evening.
Lucero's new album Women & Work will be released on March 13. Here's a teaser video from the band.

As with any new way of thinking the ideas and concepts in the Thinking in Services require both learning and unlearning. Reading the book by itself opens up new pathways in your mind. You are able to look at longstanding problems from new perspectives and solve them to a greater extent. But the fun really begins with the development of new skills and practices. There are training programs to facilitate that.
So far about 225 people from industry and government have gone through the training. Most of them through programs privately by organizations who have adopted this new way of thinking. In 2018, the training became more publicly available in the United States and the Netherlands. 2019 brings two new training programs: Grokking the Fundamentals and Developing Strategic Narratives.

*Foot update, my foot is killing me, I hope I didn't hurt it worse, I would hate surgery*
The Pastor is preaching from Romans.
At our church you get to hear and learn words like 'imputation', 'credited', 'atonement', 'justification', 'glorification', sanctification', 'wrath', 'just' and 'propitiation'.
How fun is that? Well, to me, its fun, I love learning those words, I love learning about the bible and what it means to us as a people.
Romans 3:25-31
25God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— 26he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
27Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On that of observing the law? No, but on that of faith. 28For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from observing the law. 29Is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too, 30since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith. 31Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.
Some notes I jotted down. [I don't take many notes, sorry]
Propitatory sacrifice = propitiation
It presupposses the wrath of God. WE are under Gods wrath. The sermon, 'Sinners in the hands of an Angry God' by Johnathan Edwards is an awesome sermon and example of this.
Read it here, but hearing it is much better. here
Wikipedia, as much as I hate it, says this about propitiation
What caught my eye was this:
Propitiation in Judaism
Rabbinic Judaism teaches that atonement comes through the study and practice of the Torah's 613 commandments.
Interesting, huh?
Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary – Cite This Source
that by which God is rendered propitious, i.e., by which it becomes consistent with his character and government to pardon and bless the sinner. The propitiation does not procure his love or make him loving; it only renders it consistent for him to execise his love towards sinners. In Rom. 3:25 and Heb. 9:5 (A.V., "mercy-seat") the Greek word _hilasterion_ is used. It is the word employed by the LXX. translators in Ex. 25:17 and elsewhere as the equivalent for the Hebrew _kapporeth_, which means "covering," and is used of the lid of the ark of the covenant (Ex. 25:21; 30:6). This Greek word (hilasterion) came to denote not only the mercy-seat or lid of the ark, but also propitation or reconciliation by blood. On the great day of atonement the high priest carried the blood of the sacrifice he offered for all the people within the veil and sprinkled with it the "mercy-seat," and so made propitiation. In 1 John 2:2; 4:10, Christ is called the "propitiation for our sins." Here a different Greek word is used (hilasmos). Christ is "the propitiation," because by his becoming our substitute and assuming our obligations he expiated our guilt, covered it, by the vicarious punishment which he endured. (Comp. Heb. 2:17, where the expression "make reconciliation" of the A.V. is more correctly in the R.V. "make propitiation.")
From the bible:
Ro 3:25 –whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. {This was} to demonstrate His righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed over the sins previously committed; Heb 2:17 – Therefore, He had to be made like His brethren in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. 1Jo 2:2 – and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for {those of} the whole world. 1Jo 4:10 – In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son {to be} the propitiation for our sins.
Propitiation isn't a word in day-to-day usage, so a brief definition needs to be given. It refers primarily to the process whereby someone's wrath is either 'averted' or 'satisfied', resulting in 'mercy' being received. The RSV's rendering of the word with 'expiation' obscures the true meaning for this word is interpreted as 'making amends for a wrong'. Excerpt from here
The New Testament Greek Lexicon
Theologians stress the idea of propitiation because it specifically addresses the aspect of the atonement dealing with God's wrath. Critics state that seeing the atonement as appeasing God is a pagan idea that makes God seem tyrannical. In response to this theologians have traditionally stressed that propitiation should not be understood as appeasing or mollifying God in the sense of a bribe or of it making an angry God love us because it is God who – both in the Old and New Testaments – provides the propitiation. "I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls" (Lev 17:11). God out of his love and justice renders Himself favorable by his own action.
On this point proponents of penal substitution are virtually unanimous. John Stott writes that propitiation "does not make God gracious…God does not love us because Christ died for us, Christ died for us because God loves us" (The Cross of Christ p.174) Calvin writes "Our being reconciled by the death of Christ must not be understood as if the Son reconciled us, in order that the Father, then hating, might begin to love us". (Institutes II 16:4)
I like this above paragraph, we could go on and on about propitiation, there is tons of info on the subject.
But, it doesn't get talked about very much, neither does the wrath of God.
Why? Basically it comes down to this: If we let God have all His attributes, He is the big formidable righteous diety in our lives that we 'should' reverently obey and glorify.
If we do not allow God to to have wrath and justice along with His 'nice' attributes, he is our friend who gives us what we want and will turn us into pretty baby angels when we die.
Side note: Obviously we are not the ones who let God be or do anything, our attitude and thinking must change, Not Gods.
Hope you enjoyed; comments, additions or corrections are always welcomed, because I am but a mere (wo)man striving to live a spirit filled life…. and failing miserably.
Thats a good quote, maybe I should get that published somewhere……. 😉

Columbian: Clark County commisioners want to look into bike license fee
Posted by Jonathan Maus (Publisher/Editor) on July 15th, 2009 at 4:05 pm
The Columbian newspaper is reporting that Clark County Commissioners want staff to look into a plan to create a bicycle licensing fee.
Here's a snip from reporter Michael Andersen's story:
Saying they're short on cash for new bike lanes and trails, Clark County's commissioners said Wednesday that they're willing to consider charging to license bicycles outside city limits.
"As a bicyclist, I would pay a licensing fee if I had better trail access," Commissioner Steve Stuart said in a work session on bicycle and pedestrian routes in the county. "We license our dogs. You license your car. Why wouldn't you license your bikes?
Commissioners Marc Boldt and Tom Mielke agreed, asking to set up a new work session on the issue.
"It's a good funding source," Boldt said.
After Andersen called me for comment on the story, I immediately inquired with Clark County to learn more about the context of how the idea came up.
I spoke with Laurie Nicholson, the project manager of the Clark County Bike and Pedestrian Plan. She confirmed for me that the comments reported by Andersen came up during a work session for that plan. Nicholson said it is only an idea at this point and stressed that there is no proposal on the table at this time (given this, I was surprised The Columbian would do a story on it already).
"During our discussion, Commissioner Stuart inquired about whether or not we'd looked into raising money through some sort of bike license. I said we'd look into it and report back." Nicholson plans to take the idea to the Bicycle Advisory Committee when they meet next Tuesday (meeting details below).
This will be interesting to follow. The idea to license bicycles to raise funds came up in Salem this session and was met with vehement (some said a tad too vehement) opposition. The BTA formally opposed the idea, and ultimately legislators did not deem it a high enough priority to spend time on.
Read the Columbian article (they're expected to publish a more thorough version of their story by tomorrow).
If you live/ride/work in Clark County and want to keep tabs on how/if this idea progresses, consider showing up to next week's Bike Advisory Committee meeting:
- Clark County Bicycle Advisory Committee Meeting
7/21, at 6:00 p.m.
Conference Room 433 (Fourth Floor) at the Public Service Center (1300 Franklin Street, Vancouver, WA).

Fan Appreciation Calendar Gift Pack Giveaway
I know we don't usually do Giveaways during Pet Bloggers Blog Hop but this was a Giveaway event I wanted to participate in. I know that some of you have asked that we do not post after we put up the Blog Hop on Friday so in order to accommodate everyone and participate in this Giveaway event we are combining two posts into one. While we realize that the subject of the calendars are all dogs we know that anyone who loves animals would love to receive one of these cute calendars to hang on their walls. But the best part is we are not asking you to choose which one you want. Enter to win 7 adorable Andrews McMeel Publishing 2014 animal calendars. Keep them all for yourself or share them with family and friends for the Holidays.
Thankful for our Furbabies is hosted by two of our Blogging Friends Cheap Is The New Classy and Saving More Than Me so when they asked if we would participate we of course said yes right away.
The Puppies 2014 Mini Day-to-Day Calendar pays tribute to the cutest baby animals ever–puppies. Each page features an adorable, full-color photo of a puppy or a lovable quote about these cute canines. It's sure to melt the heart of any dog lover. I am having a hard time opening any of these calendars as I really want to be able to donate them all to the local shelter to either sell or use for an auction but this one I might just have to open. The image on the box keeps calling my name and I bet the puppies inside will be even cuter.
The affection that Sueellen Ross feels for her subjects comes through in every stroke of her brush, pen, and colored pencil. That affection is shared by anyone looking at her paintings and recognizing the gaze, playfulness, or repose of one's own dog. The twelve realistic paintings in the Dogs We Love 2014 Deluxe Wall Calendar will charm dog lovers with their depictions of everyday dogs, ranging from Yorkies to Goldens, engaged in typical dog activities like greeting its owner at the door and stretching out on the couch. This is probably my favorite calendar out of them all. The detail in each work of art is incredible and the colors are fantastic.
The stylish star of the hugely popular blog Menswear Dog, is a dapper, three-year-old Shiba Inu named Bodhi. This calendar features twelve, full-color photos of Bodhi, decked out in the finest men's fashions. Accompanying each photo is one of Bodhi's clever fashion tips. I think this calendar is really cute. Somehow I was not familiar with this Blog before seeing the Calendar but I will definitely be visiting now.
The affection that Sueellen Ross feels for her subjects comes through in every stroke of her brush, pen, and colored pencil. That affection is shared by anyone looking at her paintings and recognizing the gaze, playfulness, or repose of one's own puppy. If dogs are the gods of frolic, then puppies must be their younger and friskier versions. Their energy and tuckered-out cuteness are on full display in the twelve paintings by Sueellen Ross included in the Sueellen Ross Puppy 2014 Mini Wall Calendar.
The Zelda Wisdom 2014 Wall Calendar is filled with her trademark straightforward advice and hilarious sayings, through which Zelda shares her life lessons with all of us. This sixty-pound pooch proves we don't need to be rich, thin, or wrinkle-free in order to be successful. Whether it's life, love, or work, what counts most is dogged determination and a sense of humor.
Take a yearlong cartooned walk filled with comical canine capers and funny four-legged frolics as Jonny Hawkins dishes out daily treats of laughter. Each day, the Dog Cartoon-a-Day 2014 Calendar cleverly conveys the often-wacky connection between canines and their keepers.
The Hot Guys and Baby Animals 2014 Wall Calendar is as cute and hot as ever with all new images of male models cuddling adorable baby animals. Tongue-in-cheek captions detailing the likes and dislikes of each guy and baby animal make it the perfect combination of precious and funny. While the guys in this calendar are good looking I personally would not categorize most of them as hot.
All of these Calendars are available from the following retailers:

Join us on an FB Live chat today at 2.30 PM to learn more about a unique return to work program to up skill women on a career break!
The importance of a maid – a domestic help – in women's lives cannot be discounted. These women take care of our drudgery, and free up time for us.
I was in the dilemma whether to go or not to go to the grocery shop. I didn't have choice but to go as I had ran out of wheat flour for making chapattis for lunch. After calculating the time required for going to grocery shop and coming back home, I decided to go with a heavy heart.
I bought groceries at the speed of light, paid the bills, and caught an auto. I asked the autowala to drive faster. At the signal, when he was waiting for the green signal, I kept reminding him to drive faster when the signal turns on. Finally after reaching home while I was paying him money, he asked, "Madam, itna ghai nahi karneka. Ghar pe Saas datengi kya late ho gaya to?" (Madam, you shouldn't hurry so much. Will your MIL shout at you at home if you are late?)
I replied in hurried tone, "Nahi bhaiya. Koi nahi hain ghar pe aur meri maid ane vali hain. Woh aake vapas chali gayi to sara kaam mujhe karna padega." (No. But no one is at homes and my maid is due to come. If she goes back, I'll have to do all the work myself!)
The autovala started laughing at my answer, "Kya Madam, phone karke phir se bulane ka na maid ko." (What Madam, you should call her up and ask her to come again.)
I wished I could explain him the significance of a maid in women's lives and how her schedule is more important than our own. When I reached home, the maid was waiting with infuriated look. I hesitantly asked her if she could come later so that I could finish my cooking. She looked at me with offended expression as if I was asking her to transfer her entire property in my name. I had to literally chew my words immediately.
At another instance, my friends asked me to join them for movie and lunch. We all were waiting for catching up after a long time. I had planned everything as per my husband's office timings, kid's school timings and last but not the least as per my maid's schedule. At the last moment, I had to cancel my plan since my maid did not turn up on her time. I was waiting for her furiously; she was not even picking up her phone. When she finally arrived, she told me that her bus got punctured and hence she had to walk all her way to reach here. I could not do anything but offer her water and tea.
Another day, it was a holiday for my husband. My beloved maid had still not come. More than an hour had passed since her usual time. My heart was beating fast at the thought of her not turning up. At that very moment, my husband unexpectedly got into a romantic mood. I was anxious, but didn't have heart to say no to him since very few such occasions come in my life. My husband sensed the uneasiness. When he was about to ask, the doorbell rang.
It irked his romantic mood while I shouted with excitement, "Oh! It must me the maid." And then I ran to open the door. It was indeed the maid. I breathed a sigh of relief. My husband could not fathom my excitement. His eyes pierced at me with killing gaze, "You never look so happy when I come back from office. Is she more important to you than me?" I tried to explain to him that though she might not be the most important but surely is one of the most required person in my life.
I realised that many times we keep very important decisions on hold, kyun ki 'maid aane wali hain'. Decisions like the time to have bath, lunch, shopping, meeting with friends, going out with family, inviting guests at home and many more such decision depend on the schedule of our dear maid.
And why it should not be? Because of these lovely souls, many of us get some free time for ourselves; many of us can perceive our careers. After struggling with various maids and their bizarre excuses for taking leaves, when I got a reliable maid, I could not stop thanking my stars. Didi, amma, maid, house help, bai, mavashi whatever names we can use to call them but they surely acquire special place in our hearts. They work day and night, in good health and in bad health to give a better life and education to their kids, and some peaceful moments to us.
The least we can do is to give them respect for their dedication and hard work. Kudos to all domestic helps.

When it comes to dealing with indirect costs in the budgeting process, it is important to be familiar with the concept of indirect costs, what they can be budgeted for, and exactly how much can be allocated toward these expenses. This publication describes indirect costs, gives examples of what they can be used for, and explains how they are calculated in the grants management process.
Understanding Indirect Costs
Generally speaking, indirect costs are the costs related to the management of an award and/or a signed contract. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services defines indirect costs as "those costs of an institution that are not readily identifiable with a specific project or activity, but are nonetheless necessary to the general operation of an institution and how activities are conducted." When you are budgeting for a project, it is important to classify and document any indirect costs appropriately. These costs represent an attempt to compensate award recipients for the expenses incurred in housing and maintaining a project. In business terms, these costs are referred to as "overhead."
Examples of indirect costs are:
- Costs associated with operating and maintaining buildings and grounds
- Equipment depreciation
- General salaries
- Administrative services
- Office supplies and equipment
For example, a community-based art project to paint a mural on a public facility may require indirect costs related to personnel time to supervise volunteers, the use of scaffolding or other painting equipment owned by a city, and administrative costs associated with the public unveiling of the completed mural.
Indirect costs are generally divided into specific areas and represent the basis of an indirect rate, which is used to formulate the percentage of project costs that may be used for indirect costs. The indirect rate is a calculated percentage of total direct costs, modified direct costs (i.e., direct costs minus equipment costs), personnel costs, and salaries/wages. Some funding agencies have an upper limit to what award recipients can charge on what is indirect, but any difference between the agency's indirect rate and your organization's indirect rate can be calculated and charged to a grant as a donated amount.
Indirect cost allowances vary by applicant, so it is important for you to know exactly what your organization's allowable indirect cost rate is and on what basis it is calculated. You should verify whether your agency has a negotiated indirect cost rate or inquire with the funding agency about how to obtain an indirect cost rate.
Since the nature and use of indirect costs are not specific, they can be scrutinized closely in an audit or involve meticulous documentation in a final report that may be required by a funding agency. Keep these points in mind when determining how much funding to propose for your project's indirect costs.
Despite its name, indirect costs are important to the execution of a project. Indirect costs are not readily identifiable with a particular project or activity, but they are part of a common objective that funding agencies recognize and support. Having an awareness of what indirect costs may be used for and how much grant funding can be used for indirect costs will allow you to better allocate your resources to ensure that your project is able to meet its objectives.

How about a fun dinner to celebrate Earth Day? I love making this little forest for my kids!
This recipe is called The Enchanted Broccoli Forest and comes from a cookbook called, The Enchanted Broccoli Forest by Mollie Katzen. And yes, there are other recipes in the cookbook, but with a name like that.... :)
Mollie says she came up with this ingenious presentation of broccoli trees planted in herbed rice pilaf for two artist friends of hers that were coming to dinner. If you prepare the rice ahead, this recipe only takes ten minutes to prepare. I was a bit hesitant at first at the choice of herbs (mint and dill--I almost just scratched it and went with something more "traditional" like basil or something. Boy am I sooo glad I followed the recipe--I love the mint and dill).
2 cups brown rice
1 pound fresh broccoli
1 tablespoon butter or canola oil (plus a little extra for the pan)
1 cup chopped onion
3/4 teaspoons salt
1 large clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill (or 2 teaspoons dried)
3 tablespoons fresh mint (or 3 teaspoons dried)
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
pepper to taste
cayenne to taste
1/4 pound Swiss or cheddar cheese, grated
a little extra butter for the top
Cook the 2 cups of rice according to package instructions. Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and set aside.
Trim the tough bottoms from the broccoli stalks and cut the tops into smallish spears of whatever size suits you. These will be your trees.
Preheat oven to 325° F.
Lightly grease a 9 x 13 baking pan. Melt the butter or heat the oil in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven. Add the onion and salt and saute over medium heat for about 5 minutes or until the onion begins to soften. Add the garlic and the lemon juice and saute for about 2 minutes longer. Stir in the rice, some black pepper and cayenne to taste along with the optional ingredients. Taste to correct salt, if necessary, and spread in the prepared pan. Stir in the cheese and herbs.
Now the fun part. Arrange the broccoli upright in the rice, and, if desired, drizzle with melted butter. Cover loosely with foil and bake just until heated through (15 -20 minutes). Serve right away.
Have a happy Earth Day dinner!

Insightful and imaginative writing. Enjoyable reading.
'higher of lower' - or?
A very incisive critique, this. And rendered with terrific skill in the syntax/nuance department. The short pars enable the piece to escape from a normal cause-effect flow, and go rather with a more direct point-by-point accumulation. Also a good morph from fictional narration to generalised commentary. Quite complex in its narration but held well together.
Mykell and Eamon, thanks for your comments. Eamon, thanks for the word-up; it's fixed.
Very emotional piece.
Like the line,"For these girls, dope is the only Fuck You they can find."
