Operation Defuse• http://www.operationdefuse.com/
John and Catherine were both extensively interviewed about their experiences visiting fusion centers across the country, the knowledge they gained attending law enforcement conferences and interviewing local, state and federal law enforcement agents, and the successes of their local / direct activism efforts with regards to fusion centers through their local organizations Texans for Accountable Government and the Liberty Restoration Project.
The episode of Conspiracy Theory will include footage of the infamous Liberty Restoration Project confrontations in the Governors office immediately following the MIAC report which profiled liberty lovers as potential violent threats as well as footage of Operation Defuse Activists pushing the envelope at fusion center check points in an effort to better understand the mechanics of the police state.
This is a very special occasion for us and I hope you can join us in celebrating the accomplishment of one of our goals - taking our knowledge of fusion centers to the mainstream.
Operation Defuse activists would like to extend a sincere THANK YOU to the dozens of donors who funded our travels, the wonderful folks who gave us safe places to rest our heads and food to fill our bellies as we traveled from community to community working toward a defused police state. We'd also like to extend a special thanks to We Are Change Chapters all across the country for their help and hospitality at EVERY STOP along the way!
With your help we were able to visit 16 fusion centers across the country, file open records requests at over 20 fusion centers to date, attend the National Fusion Center Conference and the Texas Homeland Security Conference, conducted over a dozen activist trainings, and successfully influence local fusion centers through local legislative action.
Next year we intend to attend as many police state conference we can find, finish our initiative to file open records requests to all fusion centers, and compile our collective knowledge and video footage into a documentary of sorts.
Again, come support Operation Defuse at this watch party / fundraiser - We believe this is a very important effort and your energy and contributions are always appreciated.

1 Comments in Response to Operation Defuse
(satire) Jesse, would you, Ernest, Alex Jones and David Icke shut the fook up? What`s the big fuss about this police state? I`ve always paid taxes, followed the golden rule, and obeyed police. I was among the LAST ONES to turn off my TV and now I`m tickled pink because now my wife and I:
1. Dont have to fret about getting rolled after stumbling drunk out of the tavern at 3AM. They lock the gate early here at the detention center.
2. Get to play monopoly, checkers and poker with the other camp members. This sure beats having to cook and clean the house for my wife even though its lights out at 9 PM sharp.
3. Get to watch all the old reruns of Dr. Kildare and Days of our Lives at our leisure. Oops, I almost forgot John Wayne, Roy Rogers and Sugarfoot too, even the Dallas Cowboys and Bugs Bunny! We were relieved to learn that old 1950s Dick Clark American Bandstand shows were NOT listed on the selection program. Rock & Roll Shows like that corrupted our nation`s youth in the first place.
4. Thankfully we dont have to worry about which cancer treatment is better as chemotherapy is the only option here. I`m certain I`ll be among the few who survive the treatment. They dont know what a battler I am. I always suspicioned that naturopathics was a quack profession anyway. I asked the doc about the supposed hazards of fluoridated toothpaste and she just laughed and said "why would we provide you with an unlimited supply of fluoride toothpaste free of charge if we thought it was detrimental to your health"? That sure relieved my anxiety in a roaring big hurry.
5. Can receive the best piles treatment in the world = surgery involving either sclerotherapy, banding or infrared coagulation.
6. Can receive the best weak heart treatment in the world = a coronary bypass operation. Sometimes I do wonder though why its the only option being offered but of course this is irrelevant.
7. Get to play our favorite music, Lanza, Pavarotti and the Philharmonic Orchestras, 24 hours a day and as loud as we want to without fretting about the neighbors calling the cops. Thankfully they dont permit Elvis Presley type trash music here.
8. Get to hear a REAL train arriving an departing bringing and taking away people. It beats to death my plastic home choo choo set. Sometimes I wonder though why trains with regular see-thru windows bring people here but when it comes time for them to leave, they pull the curtain down preventing you from seeing them go. I picked the lock on the window once, pulled up the curtain and even then I could`nt see them due to another curtain on the departing platform. The train windows even had one way glass preventing us from seeing inside. Another thing is why no one says anything on the departure platform, all you hear are the faint sounds of little wheels rolling over the floor. Guess they`re just too depressed having to leave to say anything. Thankfully I learned that after folks leave here they never answer my mail, so now I dont bother to try anymore saving meself both time and mun.
Never mind the affliction
Bopperism is the cure

Aloha, I'm John Keawe. You know here on Hawai`i island we can recycle most kinds of paper and most of the containers that come with what we buy. They can be made into new products and won't be dumped in our land fills. Recycling protects our Aina and it saves energy Which helps reduce Carbon Dioxide. A cause of Global warming. Start using the county's two bin system and join me and my ohana and make recycling a part of your life. Mahalo

The artworks by František Muzika, Josef Šíma, Jindřich Štyrský, Toyen, Zdeněk Sklenář, Jan Kotík and Václav Bartovský represent Czech art after 1930. The exhibition also covers artistic trends from the 1960s to the present day, e.g. Informel, Action Art, New Sensitivity and postmodernism. In 2019, the exhibition was enriched by two dozen artworks selected from the National Gallery Prague depositories by, among others, Zorka Ságlová, Jiří Sozanský, Barbora Klímová, Václav Kopecký and Svatopluk Klimeš. The presentation of post-war Czech architecture was also considerably expanded.
The National Gallery Prague architecture collection shown at the exhibition presents five cabinets dedicated to key moments in architectural development using characteristic examples of iconic works – original models, designs and sketches. The displays include models of the Czechoslovak Pavilion for Expo 58, the swimming pool stadium in Prague-Podolí and the Ještěd TV tower. Some projects that were never implemented or were rejected by a jury are also presented, including projects by the Machonins or Karel Prager.
The second-floor exhibition Fire and Glass displays iconic glass sculptures by Jaroslava Brychtová and Stanislav Libenský as a tribute to the glassmaking craft. The two sculptures interconnect the natural element of fire with human skills, embodying a turning point in the envisioning of glass as an artistic medium with significant roots in Czech country.

FEARING YOUR 30's IS OLD NEWS.
Especially when you continue to look like you belong back in your 20's! But that only happens if you invest time on your skin. Most people just think to protect their face but make sure to go above and beyond covering your neck, chest, hands, and feet!
With that said, here are 8 products that keep you looking like you belong in your 20's.
Origins Checks & Balances Frothy Face Wash

Hi Everyone
Apologies for my absence of late, not a lot of time for crafting and when I did? ... well they ended up in the bin. I just could not get anything right. Anyway here is a card I made recently for a cousin's birthday, just right for the person concerned!
I went a bit mad on the flowers but it was an easel card - that's my excuse and I am sticking to it! I used a Lili of the Valley stamp which I coloured with my trusty copics, added a couple of metal corners and a handbag and the card was done. This one was hand delivered which was just as well as I am not sure it would have survived the journey by post!
Hope you are enjoying the weekend.

- Payment Terms Are The Hidden Wrench In Digital Advertising in
Marketing Insider on
3G capital, the investor behind many large CPG brands, started imposing 120-day payment terms with vendors in 2008. Today, many brands have adopted the same span between service provided and cash paid. All sorts of supply chain vendors have felt the pinch. For the digital advertising industry, the pain is particularly agonizing because it stops the flow of cash in the programmatic markets, which transact in real time, using minute detail and billions of data points.

With the help of the crystals that we grow with our own hands, like all the other components, we create a unique 3D effect that allows you to create a perfectly reflective and ultra deep surface. We apply each crystal in such a way that it creates a special film that will serve as a 3D effect. This is an indescribable spectacle that you should feel on yourself.

ROCKVILLE, MD – The Biophysical Society (BPS) has named Harry Noller, Robert L. Sinsheimer Professor of Molecular Biology, Department of Molecular, Cell and Development Biology, University of California, Santa Cruz, its 2019 Ignacio Tinoco Award winner. Noller will be honored at the Society's 63rd Annual Meeting at the Baltimore Convention Center on March 5, 2019, during the annual Awards Symposium.
Noller will be recognized for his groundbreaking studies of the structure, dynamics, and function of the ribosome and his outstanding mentorship and training of scores of undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral researchers.
"Nacho Tinoco challenger our community to continually push our fundamental understanding of biophysics," said BPS President Angela Gronenborn, University of Pittsburgh. "He promoted an open, inclusive, and collaborative research environment in his field, positively impacting all of those who were around him. Harry has lived up to this shining example. We are very pleased that Harry is receiving this award for his commitment to fostering inclusive and collaborative research teams."
The Ignacio "Nacho" Tinoco Award honors the scientific contributions, work, and life of an outstanding biophysical chemist, educator, and mentor. Tinoco's contributions to the spectroscopic, thermodynamic, structural, and single-molecule study of biopolymers consistently deepened our understanding of fundamental biophysical principles, constantly moving this field toward new frontiers. Through his unconditional devotion to science, he established a highly cooperative, generous, inclusive, and friendly environment for scientific discovery and advancement. This award recognizes meritorious investigators who make fundamental and/or seminal contributions to the physical chemistry of biopolymers and/or who actively promote and sustain a collaborative, inclusive, and engaging research environment in the field.
The Biophysical Society, founded in 1958, is a professional, scientific Society established to encourage development and dissemination of knowledge in biophysics. The Society promotes growth in this expanding field through its annual meeting, monthly journal, and committee and outreach activities. Its 9000 members are located throughout the U.S. and the world, where they teach and conduct research in colleges, universities, laboratories, government agencies, and industry.

Joel is right, I've totally committed the biggest ruse in the history of ruses. Clearly I'm just making it all up that I attend Rutgers.
First, I got myself a Rutgers.edu email account (because anyone can, apparently).
Next, I got me a student ID and a password (because master thief), which I then used to register for classes (but of course I won't ever go—muahahahaha!) and pick my majors (I'm so tricksie).
Then, I hired a Special Effects crew to manufacture a set that looks identical to the Rutgers campus in New Brunswick. After which, I took crappy iPhone pictures of myself on set so people would think I was going to class.
But not before buying all of this Rutgers gear so I could look and act the part.
And clearly this is all legit, since this is way more believable for some people than the fact that I actually attend Rutgers (obvi).
UPDATE: Apparently the other question raised is whether or not I went to Montgomery County Community College (I don't know why this is a thing). It seems Mr. Ellis doesn't know how to fact-check even the most basic things. Here is the note in question.
Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot.
So what Mr. Ellis doesn't understand is that I attended MontCo when I was first going back to college. As many students here in the United States do, I went to a community college first because it is (a) cost effective and (b) it was nearby. I seriously lived a few blocks away. It was perfect. I transferred out of MOntCo to Northampton Community College when I moved away and went there for about two semesters until I transferred again to Rutgers University. Again, typical of many college students, I transferred into a 4-year institution when I had enough credits and a great GPA (since I had been out of school for six years when I initially started considering college).
But Mr. Ellis doesn't get that because he has no clue how academics function, or even the basic inclination of how college works or how typical students plan ahead because he has no academic background whatsoever. He's also too dense and far too set in his ways to even be bothered to fact-check the most minuscule information. Of course MontCo has no record of me as a student there right now; I transferred out in 2011. That was 3 years ago. But I still have access to my Student Portal:
My name is clearly visible as logged-in; you can get access to this unless you're a student with a log-in. But I really don't expect Mr. Ellis to care. Since he has his own delusional world view where, in it, I am a deceitful, angry con-man who throws stones at True Academics™ which is how Mr. Ellis sees himself. And so in order to keep his mental delusion set in stone, he has to fabricate a world where I'm the bad guy and he is the good guy and any information contrary to that must be deleted or destroyed (which is why he deletes comments that contradict his claims on his FB page). It's pretty tragic and in a way I really feel bad for Mr. Ellis. I do, I pity him. It must be lonely in his closed-in fictional world.

Minimalist Scholar: "Meh."
Dead Sea Scroll Scholar: "I think it is very likely that Tauriel may have existed in a precanonical form of the book, which very well might be lost in a jar in a cave."
Q-Scholar: "I believe that if we analyze the Jacksonian variant and the Tolkien variant we might come to find a hypothetical original, which we shall designate as the Hypothetical-V (for Valar) Source."
Confessional Theologian: "It was a fine movie, but absolutely wrong. Only what is in the Hobbit book is the true word of Tolkien and all other additions are late heresies."
Gnostic Scholar: "I prefer the additional movie material to the original book. Honestly, I don't see what all the fuss is about."
Old Testament Theologian: "I can definitely see the influence of the Davidic narratives on the story of Bilbo and the Dwarves."
New Testament Theologian: "Whaaa…? David? I think you mean Jesus."
Old Testament Theologian: "Same difference."
Atheist Scholar: "I'm still irritated that Tolkien's world has a Christian version of heaven and an afterlife in it. WTF?"
Liberation Theologian: "I really appreciate the character of Bard; his plight is so common among God's children, and Peter Jackson did such a great job of orchestrating the evils of economic greed and social injustice in the political hierarchy of Lake Town and the downfall of Thorin as his mind is taken by the power of the Arkenstone."
Conservative Catholic Theologian: "Goodness you talk too much."
Liberation Theologian: "When I can get a word in, while you're not yelling over us, I take it."
Anglican Theologian: "C.S. Lewis beats Tolkien any day."
Minimalist Scholar: "Meh."
Progressive Christian Scholar: "I think the love between Tauriel and Kili is a beautiful thing; it shows us that love can happen anywhere between any group of people, regardless of their differences. It shows us that love is a complicated emotion and, like the love of God, knows no boundaries."
Confessional Theologian: "Heresy!"
Conservative Catholic Theologian: "Ew."
Progressive Christian Scholar: "Oh, shut up you two."
Conservative Baptist Scholar: "Any love that is not between one human man and one human woman is an abomination against the Lord. Also since all the female Dwarves have beards, we can safely assume that this movie is all part of some grand homosexual agenda."
Maximalist Scholar: "We've discovered the remains of a building which might be an example of an early Gondorian style synagogue. We've finally proved that Middle Earth was a real thing!"
Minimalist Scholar: "That's…pretty stupid."
Mormon Scholar: "We have our own version of 'The Hobbit' and it is waaayyyy better than yours. And it is written in a different language–reformed Tolkieneese–so take that all you non-Mormons!"
Confessional Theologian: "Can we all agree to just ignore that guy?"
Methodist Scholar: "Can't we all just agree that the movie and the book are separate entities and should be judged as such, without muddying the water and acting as if they should all be grouped together in the same category (and therefore hold them to the same standards)? I mean, we all can usually separate the Gnostic Gospels and the Canonical Ones in this way—can't we at least make a mental attempt to do the same thing when it comes to Tolkien?"

Pretty awesome!
Italian archeologists have unearthed the remains of a Greek temple-like structure dating back to 6th century B.C. They also found details on how to build it. Written in detailed codes, the collection of how-to instructions was found among the remains.
Much like the instruction booklets of the Swedish home furnishings company, IKEA, various sections of the elaborate structure were inscribed with coded symbols showing how the pieces slotted together. Shown here is one of the coded slabs. "So far we have uncovered 100 inscribed fragments, all related to the roof assembly system. The inscriptions also reveal that the palace was built by Greek artisans coming from the Spartan colony of Taranto in Puglia," Massimo Osanna, director of the archaeology school at Basilicata University, told Discovery News.

This amused me:
As they say, "when in Rome, do as the Romans do" — which apparently involves partaking in psychoactive drugs, if a new study is to be believed, reports the Los Angeles Times.
Researchers at Italy's Institute of Atmospheric Pollution Research recently published a report that tested levels of psychoactive drugs in the air of eight major Italian cities: Palermo, Rome, Bologna, Florence, Turin, Milan, Verona and Naples. They found that residents are probably taking in measurable levels of cocaine and marijuana just by breathing the air.
Of the eight, Turin was the city with the highest total drug concentration; Palermo had the least. Some cities favored certain drugs disproportionately to others; in Florence, marijuana was the drug of choice. That may not come as a surprise, given the number of college students regularly adrift within that city.
So…what does that mean?
So does this mean that you could actually get high from breathing in Italian air? Well, no. The levels aren't quite that … ahem … high. But levels were significant enough to reveal patterns about overall usage habits of citizens. Authorities hope that the information will help to improve police enforcement of drug laws, as well as map out better drug treatment resources.

I would read the whole thing. Makes you wonder about some of the cities in the US.

Recently released guidelines from two major cancer organizations have provided some of the most comprehensive guidance to date on management of musculoskeletal side effects associated with cancer immunotherapy.
The guidelines, published in February, are a "sorely needed" reference point for the rheumatology community and others who will be encountering patients who experience immune-related adverse events (irAEs), according to Leonard H. Calabrese, DO, the R.J. Fasenmyer Chair of Clinical Immunology at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio.
"They're a good first start, given the fact that up until 4 or 5 months ago, there were no endorsed guidelines that included oncologists and rheumatologists," Dr. Calabrese said of the guidelines, which were collaboratively developed and recently released by both the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN).
Rheumatologists can add value
"We talk a lot about rheumatologists being aware of these diseases, but it's been pointed out by some oncologists that unless they're really knowledgeable and can add considerably to the management, it doesn't do any good just to be aware of it," Dr. Calabrese explained. "You need to actually have some procedural knowledge."
ASCO guidelines also describe a polymyalgia-like syndrome seen in some patients on immune checkpoint inhibitors that according to the guideline authors is characterized by pain, but not true muscle weakness.
In general, the guidelines endorse a stepwise approach, in which milder irAEs can be managed with conservative treatments and without the need to stop the immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. In contrast, more serious side effects may require more intensive management and either temporary or permanent discontinuation of cancer immunotherapy.

Mark 8:23-26
Intro: In his book "The Servant Who Rules, Ray Steadman shares the following illustration. Jazz pianist George Shearing was blind from birth. The composer of more than three hundred pieces, including the jazz standard Lullaby of Birdland," Shearing toured continually throughout his long career. He could often be found in busy downtown areas, navigating crowded sidewalks with his dark glasses and white cane. On one occasion, he was at a busy intersection at rush hour, waiting for help in crossing the street. Finally someone tapped him on the shoulder. What Shearing heard next was not an offer for help but a request. "Excuse me, sir," a stranger said to Shearing, "would you mind helping a blind man cross the street?
Shearing was about to tell the other man that he too was blind. Then he thought, Why not give it a go? So Shearing said, "Certainly, my friend. Here, take my arm. The two men set off across the street together, the blind leading the blind. Shearing heard many unnerving sounds as they crossed the street--tires squealing, horns blaring, the angry voices of cab drivers--but they made it safely to the far curb. Later Shearing recalled the incident and said, I'll never do it again, but I'm glad I did it once. It was the biggest thrill of my life!"
Our text today introduces to us another blind man. He is about to experience a thrill far greater than crossing a busy intersection with blinded eyes. He is about to experience one of the strangest miracles in the New Testament.
Jesus and His men return to Bethsaida, v. 22. The last time they were here, Jesus had healed many of their sick, Mark 6:53-56. Now He has returned and a group of people bring a blind man to Jesus, begging Him to perform another healing miracle.
Their request is for Jesus to "touch their friend. These people were Gentiles and they had come to believe that Christs power to heal resided in His touch. They failed to understand that He was able to heal with a word, or with a thought, if He so desired.
As we watch the Lord bring sight to this blind man, there is more going on here than meets the eye. Like all of Christ's other miracles, this one seems to be for the sake of the disciples as much as it is for this blind fellow. You see, all of the Lord's miracles are really "parables in action. Jesus has been trying to teach His men that He is the Messiah; that He is God in the flesh. They have failed to get the message! In spite of seeing Him do the amazing and the impossible again and again, they just dont get it.
This miracle reveals the way God opens the eyes of the spiritually blind. This miracle teaches how God is able to take someone who cannot understand spiritual truth and how He works patiently with them, step by step, to being them to the place of full comprehension.
As this process unfolds, Jesus, at one point, asks this man what he sees, v. 23. As I preach through these verses, I want to pose the same question to you today. "What Do You See? Is your spiritual sight as keen as it should be? Do you have the Lord in sharp, clear focus in your heart and life today? Do you know Who He is and understand what He is doing in your life? What Do You See? Let's examine the steps revealed in our Lord's healing of this man's blindness. As we do, I believe there is a word of hope, help and blessing for our hearts today. I want to preach on the thought: What Do You See?
I. v. 23a THE PREPARATION
· The first thing Jesus does when He hears the request of the people is to take this blind man by the hand. Jesus touches him as requested, but nothing happens! Or does it?
Nothing visible took place. Nothing took place as far as the crowd in concerned; but something very profound occurs here.
· Jesus takes this man by the hand and begins to lead him out of town. Just as He did with the deaf and mute man in Mark 7:31-37, Jesus leads this man to a place away from the crowds to do His healing work.
Now, get this image in your minds. Jesus walks up to this man and takes him by the hand and begins to lead him away. They begin their journey in the middle of town, v. 23. I can imagine Jesus leading him around the obstacles that were in his path. I can hear Jesus as He patiently and kindly leads this poor blind man along one step at a time, all the while holding his hand. Can you see this in your mind's eye?
· Think about this, we are a people accustomed to touching one another. Not in inappropriate ways, but in ways that demonstrate a connection between us. For example, since I have been here today, I have shaken dozens of hands. It is a simple greeting. It is a common gesture. A handshake allows us to make a physical connection that is not threatening, aggressive or uncomfortable. A good firm handshake says, "Hello, it's good to see you," or "Hello, it's good to make your acquaintance," and nothing more. A handshake is something many of us experience on a daily basis. It is just a little physical connection with our fellow man.
But, holding someone's hand for a long period of time and be a very intimate experience. Remember how thrilling it was to hold your girlfriend or boyfriend's hand when you were dating? Think about how special it is just to hold the hand of your spouse as you walk from place to place. There is something intimate about that gesture that communicates far more than a simple "Hi, it's nice to meet you. Holding someones hand says, I care!
Just this week, I was at the hospital with Brother Don while the surgeons worked on Sister Ruth. While we waited in the waiting room, an older woman approached me.
She said, "Are you a preacher?
I said, "Yes Ma'am, can I be of help to you?
She began to weep and told me about her loved one who was in a bad way. As she spoke, this lady grabbed my hand and held on, squeezing it in her own hand.
She asked me to pray for her relative, and I said, "Let's just pray for them right here. And that is what we did.
All the while, she is holding my hand. I did not pull it away from her because she needed that physical connection. Just for a moment this hurting woman needed to feel like someone cared. That's what we see in these verses.
Jesus takes this man by the hand and leads him to the place his miracle will take place! When that truth sinks in it becomes a real blessing!
· You see, there is a great, spiritual truth buried in this image and I want to share them with you before we move deeper in our text today.
I see here a clear portrait of how the Lord leads lost, blind sinners and brings them to the place of salvation. We don't recognize His touch until our blinded eyes are opened, but throughout our whole lives, Jesus was working and leading us to bring us to the place of saving faith. Every event, every circumstance, every tragedy and every blessing was the Lord taking your hand and mine in His grip, as He brought us to Himself. You can believe what you want to, but you can't get to God on your own! In you natural state you are dead, Eph. 2:1. He comes to you, John 6:44. He rescues the sinner from the dangerous byways of sin, Luke 15:3-5. He leads us to Himself. If you are saved, can you now look back and remember? Can you see the tender way He brought you along until your eyes were opened and you saw yourself for what you were and Him as your only hope? Can you remember how He lead you and worked in the events of your life to bring you to that place of faith and repentance? What a blessing it is!
II. v. 23b-25 THE PROCESS
· One of the things that makes this miracle so unique is that this is the only time in the Gospel record where Jesus healed someone in stages. Usually, Jesus either touched them or spoke to them and they were healed. Here, Jesus uses a two step process to open this man's blind eyes.
This just reminds us that you can't out our God in a box. God works with individuals and each one is important to Him. Jesus raised three people from the dead over the course of His earthly ministry. Each one was different. He touched the daughter of Jairus. He touched the stretcher on which men were carrying the body of the widow of Nain's son. He spoke to Lazarus.
His healing miracles were also different. He healed one leper by touching him. He healed a group of ten lepers by speaking to them. Sometimes Jesus would go where the sick individual was, other times; they would bring the sick to Him. Sometimes Jesus went and touched the sick one, other times; Jesus would heal from a great distance. You just can't shove God in a box and say, "That's how He does it every time.
Some people have problems right here. They hear someone's testimony and, let's say the person they hear was saved out of deep sin. That redeemed sinner goes into great detail about how God worked in their life through extraordinary events to bring them to Jesus for salvation. Maybe the person listening to them got saved in Vacation Bible School when they were a small child. Sometimes that person might think, "Well, I didn't have an experience like that other person, so I must not be saved. Not so!
Folks, it is not experiences that save souls, it is "grace through faith. If you had one of those earthshaking, amazing, awe-inspiring conversions, praise the Lord! If you didnt, praise the Lord! Just so you have it settled in your heart that your faith is in Jesus Christ and Him alone. It is not about the experience, it is about genuine, saving faith.
Jesus tailors His work to the individual! How He worked in my life is not how He will work in your life. We each receive a personal, individual ministry from the hand of the Lord. You are special to Him! Praise His name! Let's watch how Jesus works in this blind man's life to give him back his sight.
· The first thing Jesus does is to spit in the man's eyes. I imagine this man's eyes to be diseased, mattered shut and crusted over. Jesus just turns to him and spits in his eyes! To us that sounds disgusting. If someone were to spit in your eyes, you would be ready for a fight.
In ancient times, people thought differently than we do now. They believed there was healing power in human saliva. We still believe that to a certain degree today. If you get a small cut on your finger, what is the first thing most people do? That's right; they stick it right in their mouth. Why? Saliva has soothing qualities. Of course, it's full of deadly germs, but that is another story.
So, Jesus spits in his eyes and immediately touches the man. Jesus was saying to the man, by His actions, "I am about to do something for these eyes of yours. I would imagine that someone spitting in your eye would be a disturbing thing, but the spitting is immediately followed by the Lords tender touch. This man cant see, but he can feel. The Lord is working in a way that makes no sense to us, but it was understood by the blind man.
Then, Jesus asks him if he can see anything. When the man opens his eyes and looks around, he says, "I see men as trees, walking.
This tells us a few things we would do well to notice. First, it tells us that the man hadn't always been blind. He was able to identify the people around his as people. Second, it teaches us that he healing was far from complete. He could discern light and shapes, but he could not see clearly. Third, this partial healing does not suggest, as some commentators like to imply, that the healing powers of Jesus were failing. They actually say that the opposition to His ministry is so great, and the power of the devil so strong, that Jesus is having a hard time healing this man. Rubbish! Jesus is using this man's healing as a living parable! Jesus could have healed him with a thought, but He chose to do it this way to teach His disciples, and us by extension, a valuable lesson.
Then, Jesus touches him again, and this time, everything becomes crystal clear. His healing is complete. His eyesight is restored.
· As usual, there is a spiritual application in these events. Let's not miss what the Lord is trying to teach us here.
This blind man is a living illustration of the spiritual condition of the disciples. Ever since they had been walking with the Lord, in a sense, He had been "spitting in their eyes. He had been using one shocking, amazing, miraculous event after the other to teach them that He was the Messiah, the very Son of God.
They had seen Him heal the sick, cast out demons, raise the dead, walk on water, and multiply bread and fish, along with many other powerful proofs of His identity and deity. But, these fellows never did get it!
He had "spit in their eyes and touched them, but they never would fully comprehend just Who Jesus was until after He died and rose from the dead. Jesus led His disciples from a place of total spiritual blindness to a place where they could see Him clearly. In this passage, they are just like the man was in verse 24. They had been like the man in verse 22 when He called them to follow Him. He wants to lead them and grow them until they become like the man in verse 26.
That is our Lord's goal for every one of His children! When the Lord first begins to work with us, we are totally blind in our sinful condition. Jesus comes along and He "spits in our eyes. He brings conviction and totally shakes up our world, John 16:7-11. He uses this conviction to open our spiritual eyes and point us to Jesus, John 6:44. When we come to Jesus and are saved, we are like the man in this miracle. We see some times, but we do not see them clearly. Like Paul said in 1 Cor. 13:12, we see through a glass, darkly
As we spend time with Him in His Word and in prayer, He develops our spiritual sight. He causes us to " grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ , 2 Pet. 3:18. His goal is to take us like He finds us and make us more like Jesus, Rom. 8:28-29; Eph. 4:13-15.
We are still just like the disciples, aren't we? The Lord has proven His power and His glory to us in more ways than we can name, and sometimes we still don't get it. We have seen Him do the impossible, the incredible and the astounding time after time and we still doubt. He has "spit in our eyes on more than one occasion. May the Lord help us to be not faithless but believing, John 20:27.
· Are you growing in the things of God? Is He leading you along, one step at a time? Are you making progress in Jesus?
When you are first saved, you are a baby in Jesus. That is why salvation is called the "New Birth, John 3:3, 7. But, we are not supposed to remain babies. We are challenged to grow in the things of the Lord, 1 Pet. 2:2. He wants us to make spiritual progress! None of us have arrived spiritually, but we should all be gaining ground in Jesus. When we aren't, something is terribly wrong!
· There may be someone here today who has never trusted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. You are waiting until you can figure this Christianity thing out. Friend, you should not wait to come to Jesus until you have all the answers. It is very likely that you will never have all the answers. If He is dealing with your heart; if you sense that He has taken you by the hand and is leading to you Him; you should surrender to His will and come today. It may be that the Lord has been "spitting in your eyes lately. If He has been disturbing your slumber, He is merely trying to call you to Himself. Come to Him today. Let Him take you where you are and lead you to where He wants you to be. You dont have to know everything to be saved; you just have to know Him!
III. v. 26 THE POSTSCRIPT
· Jesus heals the blind man. He also teaches His disciples a lesson that they probably never really grasped. This is a powerful miracle with a powerful message. Unfortunately, this miracle ends on a very sad note.
· Jesus tells the healed man that he is not to return back to Bethsaida, nor is he to tell anyone there about the miracle.
Now, this isn't the first time Jesus told someone not to tell others about a miracle. When He did this it was usually to prevent great crowds from gathering, or to prevent the people from getting caught up in a frenzy over miracles. This time, I think the Lord's reasons are different.
Bethsaida is near the place where Jesus fed the five thousand, Luke 9:10-17. They were given clear evidence that Jesus Christ was the Messiah, but they refused to believe in Him. As a result, Jesus pronounced a curse on the city of Bethsaida.
Matthew 11:21-22, "Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. 22 But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you.
The town of Bethsaida had been rejected by the Lord because of their unbelief. They had rejected the great light they had been given, and they would receive no more light. That is why Jesus took the man out of town to heal him. That is why Jesus told the man not to return to the town. The town was off limits, but Jesus was still willing to deal with individuals. The community had been judged, but individuals could still be saved.
· This is a picture of our nation. As a whole, I would say that God has rejected America. As a nation we have turned away from Him and His Word. We have rejected Him as our God and we have turned a deaf ear to the call of the Gospel. America has been abandoned by God, Rom. 1:18-28.
However, God will still save, bless and use individuals. If you will hear His voice, you can be saved from your sins. You can become a child of God. You can miss Hell and you can go to Heaven. That is His promise, Matt. 11:28. If you will come to Him and ask Him, He will save you, Rom. 10:9, 13. He will not turn you away, John 6:37.
· He will not call forever, Gen. 6:3. The time to come is while He is calling you to come to Him. The time to come is right now, 2 Cor. 6:2. If you refuse, there will come a day when He will call no more. He will abandon you to your choice and allow you to go off into Hell. Don't let that happen in your life! Don't let your story end like that of Bethsaida! Come to Jesus and be saved while there is time, come while He is near and calling you to Him, Isa. 55:6.
Conc: So, what do you see? Have the eyes of your soul been opened? Have you seen yourself as a lost sinner headed to Hell and Jesus Christ as your only hope of salvation? Have you seen the truth that Jesus died on the cross to pay for the sins of His people and that He rose again from the dead to provide eternal salvation to all who would believe in Him?
Have you see the truth that you stand in need of a Savior today? Has the Lord revealed your condition to you? Is He calling you to come to Him? If He is, please do not delay. Come to Jesus while He calls. Come to Jesus now.
Have you seen where you are in your spiritual growth? Are you growing and learning more about Him as you do? Are you maturing in Jesus and becoming less like your old self while you become more like Him?
Has the Lord spoken to your heart today? If He has, please come while He is calling. Please come to Him today!

A week ago, I started writing a post that would change everything. I didn't know it at the time, but it would change my life. I look back on the post last week and I am actually rather embarrassed with how deep it all got. For the first time, probably ever, I took a deep breath and told a story I've been to ashamed to tell.
I have always been noted for my sheer honesty when it comes to my online persona. You see, online, I have a free forum of being as brutally honest as I want to be, and I don't feel an ounce of guilt for it. In person, I have that same honest streak but it's toned down, scared to go against the grain.
When I asked to do the #ILiveItIBlogItCampaign I had absolutely no idea what I was gong to write about. The reason I sporadically blog is because I can never plan my posts. I can never preselect the theme and draw upon my memory to write what needs to be written. Instead I have to be fired up, caught in a moment, ready to attack with the keyboard at my fingertips. When I opened my laptop to begin my work for the campaign, I had no idea that I was going to write a post that would be seen by thousands. So many of you have admired my bravery, and have come out of the shadows to tell me that I inspired you. Throughout it all, I realised something that I never did before..
I finally fit into the blogging world.
You see, the campaign was all about celebrating diversity. We all have different reasons for opening our minds to our readers. We all celebrate different milestones from blog views to being able to build our own websites from the ground up. We all blog for a reason. Whether it's to inspire others, or maybe it's for money. I have never stood under any of those categories. I have always been the type of person who writes because it gives me an outlet. I have so much pent up anger and frustration at the world and my circumstances that I find this little website is my only source of letting it go.
It has helped unite myself with my family, too. Time and time again they applaud me for my bravery and my honesty, but it also allows them to see a side of me that I wouldn't let them see otherwise. Blogging is this absolutely incredible tool that has so leaves so many ripples. It stretches far and wide, and every singe one of you who call yourself a blogger should be immensely proud.
Finally, for the first time since 2010, I am starting to believe in myself. I am starting to understand that experiencing pain doesn't have to be a permanent affair. Instead, I can let the wounds heal and the scars fade, taking with them a lesson in strength. I am stronger than I realise. You are stronger than your realise. Whether you've lost someone close to you, or whether you didn't do well enough in your GCSE's – it still hurts. Pain is pain. Hearts are broken for many different reasons. But whilst you still feel the pain, you still have a heart, and that to me means you have a whole lot of hope.
Blogging should never be about views or followers or how much we're paid for sponsored posts. It should be about us taking time to create something that is completely ours.
A break up should never be about who was in the wrong. I look at my ex and I am immensely proud of all that he is achieving. We still talk, we still care about the others happiness, and that is okay. Losing my first boyfriend meant that I didn't do enough to keep the boyfriends that followed. I recognise that now, maybe a little too late. But what I also recognise is that it's okay for you to be happy for the person you once loved. Time spent bitter is time wasted.
I am immensely proud that you all now have a piece of James with you. For so long, I have kept him tight, protecting him and us and the life we shared. I cannot tell you how much lighter my shoulders have felt since that first post. I can't tell you how incredible it is to see him live on in your messages and your tweets of admiration.
I think what we can all take from the #ILiveItIBlogIt campaign though is that we are one unit. Whether you use marble flat lays or have 36 followers on Twitter. Whether you're like me, and completely doubt yourself with every word you type, we are all here for the same reason, and that is because writing and creative content is our happy place.
If you're busy being somebody else then who is being you?
Enough of the mush though, I am starting to remember I have a heart and it makes me really uncomfortable.
See you on Wednesday.

The Functionality of Your Mat:
Each HealthyLine mat contains up to 21 layers that regulate the complex wellness-enhancing experience. These layers do things such as generate penetrating heat, regulate temperatures, provide PEMF, and make your mat more durable. The next step in the process is embedding the mats with pounds of pure natural gemstones. When heated, these gemstones release far infrared rays and negative ions that penetrate deep into your body's core. These processes assist in normalizing your body's functionality. This also guides your body into a state that is more receptive to other forms of therapy. This is where the inclusion of PEMF and photon lights becomes beneficial. When all these therapies work together, they continuously help maintain improved levels of wellness.
How it is made:
Your mat is made under careful 24/7 supervision in factories of our own design. We purchase gemstones in extremely high quantities, and as a result, we can provide your mat at a fraction of its real value. We take your concerns very seriously, and as such we will not offer you anything that doesn't exceed our level of standards and testing.

2 reviews for Cocoon-Mat™ TAJ&SOFT Full 7224 – Photon PEMF InfraMat Pro®
PEMF has become my redemption from fibromyalgia pain. I started with buying a small mat, it was amazing, and I decided to buy this cocoon to gain the benefits from each side. The only disadvantage I could find is the weight of the cocoon.
I had severe pains after a car accident and I was recommended to try PEMF therapy. I decided to purchase the most comfortable full-body variation and it works wonderfully. My health troubles are far behind and I'm full of energy!

Us artists are a cannibalistic lot. The myth of the lone creator rules, but the truth is we are constantly nibbling away at each other's work, taking up bits and pieces that suit our needs. We even have a word for this polite thieving between artists – it's called "referencing." Referencing is complimentary: I like your idea, your brushstroke, your colouration so much that I am unable to stop myself trying to emulate it. Our peers may be hard to resist, but there is also the weight of tradition. Hundreds of years of brilliant painters to look at, all better than you. No wonder young Marcel Duchamp drew a moustache and goatee on the Mona Lisa.
In our little South African artworld, the equivalent gesture of punk outrage must surely be Wayne Barker's Pierneef paintings. Back in the late 1980s, Barker, fueled by alcohol and seething with righteous anger at the apartheid system, set about defiling Pierneef. He took the hallowed landscapes and inserted into them all manner of subversive imagery. Fuck you, Apartheid overlords with your nostalgic ideas of the land! Fuck you, artists who cosy up to the Nats!
Barker's work attacked the comfortable notion that landscape painting exists outside of politics and history. (The good theorists of the left, who had long deplored the absence of any reference to the Relations of Production in Pierneef's work, were happy.)
Like so many before and since, here was a young artist taking aim at the establishment. But the thing about the artworld is its ability to incorporate the new pretender as well as the old Master. One may have thought 27.04.94 signaled the start of a clean out of the old white icons, an ushering in of the new. And yet, after a brief pause, the market in Pierneefs continued to rise. He is bought, studied, preserved and debated. And quite a few of us painters can't stay away.

Ontology Translation for Interoperability Among Semantic Web Services
AbstractResearch on semantic web services promises greater interoperability among software agents and web services by enabling content-based automated service discovery and interaction and by utilizing . Although this is to be based on use of shared ontologies published on the semantic web, services produced and described by different developers may well use different, perhaps partly overlapping, sets of ontologies. Interoperability will depend on ontology mappings and architectures supporting the associated translation processes. The question we ask is, does the traditional approach of introducing mediator agents to translate messages between requestors and services work in such an open environment? This article reviews some of the processing assumptions that were made in the development of the semantic web service modeling ontology OWL-S and argues that, as a practical matter, the translation function cannot always be isolated in mediators. Ontology mappings need to be published on the semantic web just as ontologies themselves are. The translation for service discovery, service process model interpretation, task negotiation, service invocation, and response interpretation may then be distributed to various places in the architecture so that translation can be done in the specific goal-oriented informational contexts of the agents performing these processes. We present arguments for assigning translation responsibility to particular agents in the cases of service invocation, response translation, and matchmaking.

The debut music video of Sonakshi Sinha, Aaj Mood Ishqholic Hai has been released. The actress took to her Twitter handle to announce and wrote:
"ITS HERE!!! #AajMoodIshqholicHai over to you guys... Party season is setttttt!!!!!"
The Dabangg actress has donned the hipster look for the song. The song is composed by Meet Bros and has been written by Kumaar. Shot in the picturesque locations of Goa, the song offers well-choreographed dance moves, colloquial words and interesting lyrics.
However, the video seems more about Sonakshi's jazz than the music. It's peppy and an apt for your New Year party, still it lacks novelty. From those chunky jewellery pieces to that funky hairdo, watch the video for Sonakshi's re-mixed styling though.
