Chester says it best: "The inspiration for this name comes from the age-old proverb; 'sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me'. The unusual and quirky names of d'Arenberg's range of wines has never done the winery any harm" So there.
d'Arenberg, The Sticks and Stones, McLaren Vale, 2014
A unique blend of Spanish and Portuguese grapes: Tempranillo, Grenache, Souzão and Tinta Cão. Soft, earthy and tart with cherry, blackberry, fuzzy vanilla paste, blue steel before a glossy sheen with a rubber plant leaf/aloe vera green earthiness. Slick, cool fruit with generous puckering tannins. Contradicting stony and leafy at the same time. Sloe berries and black forest fruits with baked orange segments push the acidity higher than expected taking this into medium bodied territory. Cocoa powder tannins finish things off. A rogue, but a lovable one.
Alc: 14.5%
Rating: 17.50/20

Video: Boban Marjanovic smacks Salah Mejri in the face
Sometimes NBA players get tired of getting beat up on the defensive side. They often lash out and may foul a player pretty harshly. But in this instance, Los Angeles Clippers center Boban Marjanovic took his offense to new heights:
Boban the rim protector 😳 pic.twitter.com/MAESe12QGN
— Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) December 21, 2018
Marjanovic full on jack-slapped Dallas Mavericks center Salah Mejri in the face. This behavior, though hilarious to some, is dangerous. The officials ended up handing Marjanovic a Flagrant 1 for his unnecessary foul on Mejri.
The Clippers ended up winning the tightly contested affair by a score of 125-121. Mavs rookie sensation Luka Doncic hit his signature step-back 3-pointer to bring it within two with seconds to go, but LA sealed the game at the line.
Danillo Gallinari had a game-high 32 points on 11-of-16 shooting, grabbing six rebounds and dishing out four assists, while Lou Williams had 26 points and eight assists on the game. Tobias Harris scored 16 points with nine rebounds and five assists.
Boban played just seven minutes and tallied four points and one rebound.
For the Mavs, it was the two-man show of Doncic and DeAndre Jordan. Doncic had 32 points on 10-of-20 shooting, contributing four rebounds, five assists, and four steals as well. Jordan was a a force to be reckoned with inside. He scored a mediocre 11 points but grabbed a ridiculous 22 rebounds while also dishing out four assists.
Mejri had five points and four fouls in nine minutes.
The Clippers are 18-11 on the season and currently sit in sixth in the NBA's Western Conference under head coach Doc Rivers.
The Clippers will next face off against the the Denver Nuggets this Saturday at home.

Beautiful travel stories for the armchair adventurer
Although this year so far has taken me to Sweden (post to come later), the UK twice and Spain for a birthday celebration, my focus for the rest of the year will be on hearth and home, creating a family retreat in the English countryside; a little cottage surrounded by woods and daffodil fields not too far from beautiful beaches.
So this month's post takes a slightly different turn; aside from my usual format, I want, instead, to share with you a small selection of articles from some of my favourite travel magazines.
Some of the articles listed here are of places still on my bucket list for future exploration, and others are familiar to me; past journeys rich with memories of pinnacle moments in my life. So, find your comfortable reading place, relax and enjoy.
Paris in the steps of Simone de Beauvoir
This article reminds me so much of my first trip to the city of love many years back with my boyfriend at the time. And as quoted in the article; I too was young, young, young, smoked cigarettes and fell in love in Paris. Of course, being in the city of romance, that same boyfriend took the opportunity to propose atop the Eiffel Tower. We have been together ever since.
This article, however, aims toward a different kind of love; the love of books and takes us on a trip through the celebrated haunts of many literary icons.
This is by far my favourite magazine for travel literature. Every article is exquisitely written, and accompanied by clear, uncluttered imagery in a style all its own. It's hard to pick just one article to share, however, the words of writer Richard Aslan send me to an ethereal place every time I read his words. This article is about what is said to be the happiest place on earth: Butan.
Anthony Sattin is an author and journalist specialising in travel and history. His writing usually focuses on off-piste journeys through the middle east, on which he has written several books and is a regular contributor to Conde Nast Traveller. I often dream of an old style slow cruise down the Nile, and Sattin's words evoke vibrant mental images of the culture and lavish history along the Nile river and the countries along its banks.
Toast is a fashion company with an online magazine of the same name. The magazine is presented in a beautifully gentle way and focuses on artisan makers from the UK and the world over. Its Travel and Place section is a favourite read of mine, from which I am sharing this article with you. Jessica Seaton, the company's co-founder, has also written a delightful cookbook called Gather, Cook, Feast, which focuses on foraging and seasonal eating.
Virginia Woolf – To the lighthouse
I said it was hard to choose just one article by Richard Aslan, so here is another. The aforementioned property which we recently purchased, is in the area in which this story is set. Cornwall, UK is a favourite holiday destination for Brits and a muse for many artists and writers. In this article, Aslan ponders the childhood memories of Virginia Woolf's family holidays in Cornwall. The lighthouse in this story also holds fond memories for my husband, whose childhood home overlooked Godrevy.

Zootopia Crosses $1 Billion Worldwide
I really enjoyed seeing Zootopia. It was a great animated film, with a deeper message about intolerance and racism. You can read my full review for the movie here. Since I saw it, I have been championing this film on at the box office. It has been going and going and going, being the highest grossing film of the year for awhile... until a little film called Captain America: Civil War came out. Right now, Civil War stands as the highest grossing film of the year, having raked in over $1.1 billion, with Zootopia trailing behind it. I never thought Zootopia would make more than Civil War, but I really wanted to see it cross $1 billion dollars, because it's been hovering around $900 million for a while now. However, now Zootopia has hit that milestone.
Zootopia has officially crossed $1 billion dollars at the worldwide box office, making it the second highest grossing original film of all time (behind Avatar), the 11th Disney film to break one billion, and the 26th film ever to join to billion dollar club. I am very happy for Zootopia. It's a great film, and it deserves the success it's getting. This is the second 2016 film to cross one billion, and I don't think it will be the last. The Jungle Book is about $100 million from $1 billion, and it's very feasible that it will cross that milestone. Plus, we have other big films coming out like Finding Dory, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which all have the possibility of doing massive damage at the box office. I think 2016 may hold quite a few billion dollar films, and Zootopia is now the second one to join the list.
What do you think? Are you happy that Zootopia crossed $1 billion at the worldwide box office? Have you seen the film? What other movies this year may join the billion dollar club? Leave your thoughts in the comments section below.

We all know this : today a big shot and tomorrow gone with the wind.
This is what happened to rocco. From the 1960s to the 1990s rocco was basically everywhere: in Hollywood, in the white house, at hip festivals. rocco was the coolest cat out of all of them, a true hero.
Since he disappeared a yellow circle is standing for the past adventures of this – more or less – rockstar, who will – we are going to take a second here to look into the future – be more present to all of us for sure. Most likely rocco has spent the past decades in a shiny villa, has grown a huge beard and had parties with champagne, chicks and chi-chi. This is how we would have done it if we were rocco.
We are super excited to find out what rocco is and where rocco is – and going to look for it the following weeks via Instagram: #whereisroco
Of course we won't tell more now. Otherwise the excitement goes away, clear case. Let the hunting galore begin!
Whoever wants to give us an advice about roccos existence : please do! We are going to research in every famous and notorious villa around and in Berlin after the yellow circle – and the wild fête of rocco.

L-Carnitine, which is derived from L-Lysine & Methionine is said to have a positive effect on nitrogen. L-Tartrate, which is attached to Carnitine to improve absorption is a powerful antioxidant.
L Carnitine Tartrate is said to assist the transport of fatty acids in mitochondria, which can aid fat loss, as well as transporting toxic by products out of the mitochondria. L Carnitine Tartrate has also been shown to reduce muscle damage (and thus reduce recovery time) after intense weight training, possibly due to its interaction with androgen receptors.

Jesus and the Sukkah
By Rob Goodman, Killing the Buddha
As his final earthly act at the end of the Gospel of John, Jesus hosts a cookout. He's seen at first from a fishing boat, waving from the shore in the gathering dawn, alive after all, yelling for Peter and his crewmates to haul in their nets and come ashore. Once on land—Peter dripping wet after swimming all the way, and the rest dragging the boat—they see that Jesus has already started a little charcoal fire on the ground, grilling fish with bread. Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast."

FLINT, Michigan — Local experts and community leaders provided details this morning about how water filters would be distributed to Flint residents, and demonstrated how to install them. This assistance comes on the heels of $105,000 in combined donations for water filters announced yesterday by United Way, General Motors and the Making Our Children Smile Foundation.
City of Flint residents looking to obtain a filter should contact the Genesee County Health Department at (810) 257-2158.
State legislators who represent the City of Flint are encouraged by the action but stated that much more needs to happen to ensure safe water for families. Sen. Jim Ananich (D–Flint) acknowledged that while this is a promising first step, it's not enough.
"Everyone in our community deserves access to safe water," Sen. Ananich said. "I will continue to fight for aggressive, comprehensive solutions until Flint families receive the relief they so desperately need and deserve."
Rep. Sheldon Neeley (D–Flint) agreed with Sen. Ananich and stressed the importance of state action. "We can't just rely on the kindness of strangers to protect our children," Rep. Neeley said. "The governor and Department of Environmental Quality need to make this an urgent priority."
The state has already been urged by local lawmakers to consider a variety of solutions, including:
An announcement is expected later this afternoon in Flint by state and local officials about additional actions they plan to take.
Rep. Phil Phelps (D–Flushing) also said the need for action by state officials is now.
"This is a public health crisis, and our children are in danger," Rep. Phelps said. "We absolutely need to help them sooner rather than later."
The public is strongly urged to visit the Filter Guide on FlintWaterInfo.com for general and purchase information about water filters certified to remove lead, and encouraged to share this information with friends and family members.
Citizens also should follow Sen. Ananich on Facebook, facebook.com/jimananich, and Twitter, @jimananich, for the latest updates about the public health crisis in Flint.

JALANDHAR — Barely 24 hours after the Congress announced Kamal Nath as its chief minister designate for Madhya Pradesh, the ghost of 1984 anti-Sikh riots is back to haunt him.
Several political leaders accused Nath of being party to the riots in Delhi where at least 3,000 Sikhs were brutally murdered and several others were displaced.
Akali Dal leader Manjinder Singh Sirsa leveled charges against Nath for his alleged role in the riots and has threatened to launch a nationwide protest against the decision. Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Sukhpal Khaira also accused the Congress of protecting of protecting Nath claiming that there was strong evidence against him. Shiromani Akali Dal leader and Punjab's former revenue minister Bikram Singh Majithia too slammed Congress for 'rewarding' other anti Sikh leaders like Sajjan Kumar and Jagdish Tyler with plum posts.
Even though Nath, in an interview to India Today after winning the recently held assembly elections, has claimed that there were no charges against him in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots, he was once again put under the public spotlight over his alleged role in the massacre that unfolded a after India's former prime minister Indira Gandhi was assassinated by two of her Sikh bodyguards Satwant Singh and Beant Singh.
Speaking to Huffpost India, HS Phoolka, an advocate fighting the cases from the riots in the Supreme Court and former leader of Opposition from AAP, said that the Special Investigative team (SIT) formed by the Supreme Court to re-probe 186 cases from riots had given the much needed momentum to the process of providing justice to the kin of those killed during the riots. Phoolka said that Nath will soon be behind bars.
"There is strong evidence against Kamal Nath in the anti-Sikh riots case and he cannot evade law. Time cannot be a reason to deny justice to anyone and so he too will be served the quantum of punishment soon," said Phoolka.
Recently, the Delhi High Court upheld the conviction of 88 people by a lower court in 1996 and has also announced the first death penalty to an accused for murdering a Sikh in Mahipalpur area and a life term for another in November this year.
What was Kamal Nath's role in the anti-Sikh riots and what are the evidences against him?
The most crucial evidence was the affidavit submitted to the Nanavati Commission and later to Justice Ranganath Mishra Commission by senior journalist Sanjay Suri, who during the time was working at The Indian Express in New Delhi. On 1 November, 1984, a day after Gandhi's assassination, Suri had gone to the Gurudwara Rakab Ganj Sahib to assess the deteriorating law and order situation.
Suri alleged that Nath was controlling the 'blood thirsty' crowd and was a spectator of the atrocities on Sikh devotees in the Gurudwara. He said cops and paramilitary forces were also mute spectators.
Suri in his book 1984:The Anti Sikh Riots and After:
"I wasn't expecting to find Kamal Nath by the screaming crowd outside Rakab Ganj Sahib Gurdwara, where two Sikhs had only just been burnt alive. But there he was, a little to a side, in a bright white kurta-pajama, not far from the usual white Ambassador car with its mounted red light and a mini flag post by the front bumper announcing its ministerial, or at least officially important, credentials."
He wrote further wrote
"What I did see then was that when the crowd surged forward at one point, Kamal Nath had only to gesture lightly and they held back. Why did the crowd listen to him? Why in a situation where a murderous bunch was advancing yet again would the police continue to stand to a side and now watch the MP control that crowd?"
Phoolka in his book When A Tree Shook Delhi on the 1984 carnage has quoted Suri's report published on 2 November, 1984 and alleged that Nath was indeed controlling the crowd and giving directions to the mob.
While Nath's appointment has caused a huge uproar in the political circles in Punjab, Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh slammed the Shiromani Akali Dal for politicising the riots.
Intervening during a call attention motion raised by Akali MLA Bikram Singh Majithia in the Vidhan Sabha, Singh said the law was taking its due course as far as allegations against the veteran former union minister were concerned.
Nath has been a Union Minister for more than 10 years after the allegations first surfaced, Singh pointed out, adding that a mere reference about the senior Congress leader in the Nanavati Commission report could not be construed as his involvement in the case. The law alone could decide the role of any individual, the Chief Minister said, adding that nobody should exploit this sensitive issue of the 1984 riots for their political ends.
Singh also showed pictures of Punjab's former Chief Minister and SAD leader Parkash Singh Badal presenting a bouquet to Kamal Nath and Sukhbir Singh Badal and Parminder Singh Dhindsa attending a meeting with the former Union minister to highlight the fact that the Akali leaders were just trying to politicise the issue for their petty vested interests.

In the face of endless conflict affecting an increasingly uncertain world, widespread concern about international stability and even the threat of war continues to grow. The instantaneous dissemination of news via the internet, leading to a general overload of information, only heightens a sense of permanent unease about imminent disaster, since persistent bad news creates a perception of disorder, confusion and lack of control.
Given the USA's enhanced influence in the world and its economic and military strength, its capacity and willingness to resolve problems at an international level become crucial in maintaining peace and stability. Most people in the West expect America to take the lead in resolving international crises. However, with the most mercurial and combative President at the helm since the nation became a global power after the Second World War - and, progressively, the leader of the free world - there is genuine alarm on the part of many about the future.
The reduction of international tensions remains essential since the ultimate use of force involving weapons of mass destruction would have overwhelming and widespread effects. As for the Caribbean, we depend on our giant neighbour for our security and prosperity so how the US interacts with others on the world stage matters even more to us than to other countries.
During the first year of his presidency, Mr Trump has been faced with myriad challenges in relation to foreign affairs – for example, North Korea's nuclear testing, Russian expansionism, China's growing power and its military activity in the South China Sea, ISIS and radical Islamic terrorism and the Iran nuclear deal. So far, his controversial tweeting has induced concern that US foreign policy is being made on the hoof without proper consideration of complicated issues in an informed and rational manner and without even identifying the nation's strategic aims beyond his rhetoric about the need to "make America great again".
Thus, the President's announcement earlier this week of a National Security Strategy has already been welcomed. It provides a framework for US international relations and describes his administration's priorities as protecting America's way of life, promoting the nation's prosperity, preserving peace through strength and advancing US influence in the world. He has also stressed America will lead the way vigorously in achieving these overall aims and, while recognising China and Russia as "rival powers", will confront challenges head-on including the denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula. But there was no mention of climate change despite its inherent importance to any nation's economy, though he acknowledged the economy was crucial to national security.
While the key to world peace during the Cold War was nuclear parity between the West and the Soviet Union as an effective deterrent to mutual destruction, perhaps the most pressing issue now facing the President is not only the direct challenge from North Korea as the greatest current threat but also the danger of the spread of nuclear weapons to other rogue states and into the hands of terrorists.
On a broader front, US foreign policy should surely be concerned with preservation of a rules-based and US-led liberal international order that underpins the work of supranational organisations and protects the integrity and sovereignty of the nation-state. Moreover, the importance of so-called soft power - in the shape of America's values and cultural achievements that contribute to its influence and appeal - should not be underestimated.
Having now identified the US's national security priorities, the question is how to give them effect. The President's critics point to his often one-dimensional and direct approach to issues that has been effective in achieving his aims in business matters but may not be appropriate in dealing with other countries.
In the more varied and sophisticated world of international affairs the exercise of diplomacy is required in order to secure the co-operation of others. But, judging from the reported major cuts in the State Department, the Trump administration appears not to recognise its value. This ignores the fact that careful management of relations among independent states by a process of diplomatic negotiation is the accepted method of gaining strategic or tactical advantage without the use of force. Diplomacy involves the tough and hard-headed task of promoting and protecting the interests of a nation by seeking to strengthen mutual interests and reconcile conflicting ones - either multilaterally through the United Nations and other international organisations or bilaterally through resident diplomatic missions and official visits.
Such an approach to the conduct of foreign affairs may or may not be Mr Trump's preferred way of doing business. But what is certain is that without vigorous and pre-emptive diplomacy (often behind the scenes) the world would be in a permanent state of crisis and thus become an ever more dangerous place.

under Trump, the new America foreign policy doctrine is more stick based than carrot it seems.. you will either tow the line and sing from the same song sheet or you will pay a price. i hope our people at the UN take note and vote to protect our national interest... we are small and insignificant, so as admirable as it may be, we may have to concede some principle positions from time to time in our national interest..
Porcupine 2 years, 10 months ago
I agree that Trump is unstable and dangerous. However, the US has been on the wrong side of history since its' inception. The only country to have used nuclear weapons is the US. My very close reading of the recent history is that the US has been the aggressor time and again, eliminating millions of innocent people, assassinating democratically elected leaders, overthrowing many governments, and led the race in nuclear escalation. It currently funds many covert operations throughout the world, which few know about. The US is certainly not a democracy, which has been shown by many respected scholars. As far as persistent bad news, is this editorial written by someone who works for the Tribune? Really? The ruling elite in the US are the greatest threat to humanity that has ever existed. I am absolutely astounded that someone who is considered well-read could get this so wrong. Well, actually I'm not. If one looks at the actual UN votes, one would see how isolated the US is as a "leader". A case in point are the votes by the UN just after the US unilaterally declared Jerusalem the capital of Israel. It was the world against the US and Israel.

An iceberg the size of Delaware will soon break off an ice shelf in Antarctica, according to scientists at the British Antarctic Survey.
Over the last few years, a crack has been growing rapidly in the Larsen C Ice Shelf, which is located near the coast of South America.
The separation increased by over 18 miles from 2011 to 2015. In 2016, it grew by another 13 miles, and last month alone, 11 more miles broke off. The crack on the shelf is now about 70 miles long and over 1,000 feet wide. A mere 12 miles holds the shelf and iceberg together.
At almost 2,000 square miles, this potential iceberg would be one of the 10 largest on record once it enters the ocean.
Researchers at the British Antarctic Survey have been monitoring the Larsen C Ice Shelf for more than a decade. The nearby Larsen A shelf disintegrated in 1995. In 2002, the Larsen B shelf partially collapsed.
A NASA study from 2015 estimates that the shelf will completely disintegrate by the end of this decade. The British Antarctic Survey attributes the expanding Larsen C crack to both warmer air temperatures and warmer ocean currents.
Adrian Luckman, a leader on the UK Antarctic research team Project MIDAS, told the BBC, he would be amazed if the iceberg doesn't split from the shelf within the next few months.
Sea levels will not be affected by the melting of the single iceberg, but the BBC reported the complete disintegration of the shelf could cause sea levels to rise by about four inches.

The bomber jacket has flown far and wide since its aviation roots. As a military uniform for pilots and soldiers during the war, the bomber jacket was picked up by style icons soon after and fast became a men's fashion essential which continues to stand true in the new century.
Recognised for its trans-seasonal versatility across summer and winter, the bomber jacket's cropped, square silhouette cuts a masculine figure and its ribbed cuffs and elastic waistband refine the torso of the modern man.
It's a sure-fire way to add some detail to your best look with metallic hardware and patch details. And for the minimalist fiends, the extensive choice in bomber jackets also means pared-back aesthetics with fewer zips and pockets on more luxurious offerings.
Whatever your taste and budget, there's a bomber jacket for you. Here is our selection of the best bomber jacket styles in 2019.
Topman is a British menswear retailer that has been producing affordable, trendy clothing for men since 1978. They continue to produce forward-thinking designs through employing, younger, up and coming talent from across the UK. They have a great selection of bomber jackets that range from plain, traditional styles to more interesting, patterned and printed styles.
Bonobos was started by two Stanford Business School students who were frustrated with the lack of good quality, well-fitting affordable menswear. Bonobos has a range of traditional bombers as well as some more exciting options that are made from unique materials and patterns, all of their bombers are designed to fit well and are high quality.
J.Crew pride themselves on their ability to produce clothing that not only stands the test of time from a quality perspective but also from a style perspective. They focus on creating timeless garments that look great today and will look great in 10 years time and their bomber jackets are no exception. Available in a range of colours and styles, J.Crew will have a bomber for you.
Paul Smith
Paul Smith is famous for his unique, somewhat whacky styling. His bomber jackets, however, are rather conservative and are available in a selection of timeless colours and materials. His most unique offering is a bomber made form 'jersey', the same materials your hoodie is made from.
Stone Island
Designed in Italy by Mr Carlo Rivetti, Stone Island is at the forefront of men's outerwear and have become famous for their memorable removable patch on the left sleeve of all of the brand's garments. Their bomber jackets, in typical Stone Island style, don't follow any traditions.
G-Star is famous for their innovations in denim including their role in making denim 'luxurious' and cutting edge 3D denim technology. For G-Star, the world of denim has been conquered and they have since evolved to make other menswear garments. Their bomber jackets are high quality, innovative and are available in both traditional and more modern styles.
Private White V.C.
Named after the rather courageous Private White who fought for the British Army in WWI, Private White V.C. is also the last standing cotton factory in Manchester. Their garments combine the trends of today with traditional styles and manufacturing techniques of a time gone era. Their bomber jackets are of the highest quality and feature intricate details that make them stand out from the crowd.
Todd Snyder
The one-time Ralph Lauren, Michael Kors and Gap designer turned entrepreneur, Todd Snyder offers a range of clothing designed by himself as well as a range of great collaborations with other big-name brands like Champion and red wing boots. The bomber jackets available on Todd Snyder range of his own ultra-stylish suede piece to a collegiate inspired number that has been made in collaboration with Champion.
Founded in Paris, 1987, A.P.C. is famous for their minimalistic take on traditional garments and styles. Their bomber jackets are no different and take on a more minimalistic form than the traditional MA1 flight jacket. They are made from ultra-high-quality materials and use production processes.
Founded by a Mr David Reiss, Reiss is committed to making innovative and original clothing that fuses quality, exceptional design and value. Their bomber jackets are a little more sophisticated than most and are perfect for the gent who wants a sharper look.
All Saints
Famous for their leather jackets, All Saints has become synonymous with stylish garments, that have the quality to match. Their bomber jackets are inspired by the Original MA1 Flight Jacket but use an array of exotic, high-quality materials such a leather, suede and nylon to differentiate them from the original.

I am happy to announce a new feature to this blog, from time to time there will be a column about how faith and politics or often interlinked.
The columns will be submitted by a dear friend of mine that many in the Northern Monmouth County area know well, former publisher of the Courier, turned Baptist minister, Mr. Jim Purcell.
His first colum is titled: The Christian message is a political one that is both complex and straightforward.
There is politics within the message of Jesus Christ, and it is the stuff of powerful controversy. Born a poor Jew within Roman-occupied Palestine, God made a choice to introduce Himself physically into the history of mankind in a purposeful, guided way.
He did not decide to arrive as an earthly king, or a noble of Rome or even as a clergyman locked away from other people. Christ arrived where He was needed most – to people who were desperately in need of salvation and, above all, redemption.
During the 1st century AD, Palestine was expecting a savior, but not exactly the kind that appeared. Many occupation-weary Jews hoped the savior would come from the model of the Maccabees, the militaristic Jewish family that led a rebel army and vanquished the Seleucid Army during the 2nd century BCE. Upon victory, the Maccabees went on to found the Hasmonean dynasty, which was in power from 164 to 63 BCE. So, the experience many Jews had with salvation was not of the kind that Jesus brought. Prior to Him, salvation was seen in militaristic, even nationalistic ways.
Then came Jesus, and His message of peace, tolerance, good will and the work of God. He did not ever say He was here to found a new religion. Commonly, Jesus instructed upon reforming the Jewish Law, and informing perspectives about the will of God.
He had politics and they were amazingly simple, and hard, all at once: Love God, care for the widows and the orphans, heal the sick, feed the hungry, look after the poor, welcome the stranger, care for your neighbor as you would yourself, and liberate one's self and others not with violence and war but with peace, love and determination.
The God that Jesus spoke of did not believe in creating earthly empires, nor of watching people oppressed and left to cruel fate or, worse yet, being exploited by others. Jesus informed us that each of us has a personal relationship with our Creator, and that He is our link – our bridge – to God the Father.
Where's the controversy in this? Simple enough: No one was ever killed, harmed or even berated for preaching war. War is the easiest thing to preach, because the orator can wrap him or herself within a flag and play a catchy tune and the crowds do tend to love that show. Yet, to speak of God and His intent in a way that runs counter to the music and the great speeches by allegedly honorable men and women is seen as a so-called "perversion of religion" because God doesn't have a team, a flag, a nation or even a favorite football jersey.
Peace is a political problem. War is an activity that people seem intent to engage in, and try to rationalize it and discover the God in it. But there is no part of God in it.
Just as controversial are ideas about giving voice to those who are marginalized, even oppressed by the politics of hate and derision.
If there is a Devil, it does not seek the physical, psychological, spiritual or social health of humans or their communities. It would revel in dissent, epidemic, social stratification, exploitation of peoples and the demonization of groups for the sake of division alone. And, this is the state of politics today.
The common ground that is needed in government and politics is not the agenda or platforms of parties, but rather the agenda of God as made apparent in the Word. And, that agenda is caring for the health, welfare and physical/spiritual development of not a few people, or some people, but just people. It involves tolerance and, dare I say, something better than is being commonly offered by or to each of us.
God is neither Republican nor Democrat and favors nor advocates for either party, and for good reason. But, as community leaders and allegedly people of conscience, it should be the business of people to adjust their agenda to faith and not use faith to market what is not about faith –greed and evil.
If God is to bless America, it will not be because that saying is emblazoned upon a bumper sticker in red, white and blue, but because it is America that observes its alleged relationship with God. That begins not at political rallies but with long looks in the mirror.

Keith Urban busking in Sydney
Keith Urban surprised Sydney's Christmas shoppers by showing up in Pitt Street Mall and playing some of his tunes. For half an hour he entertained the growing crowd with music and chatting, everyone loved it.
Busking seems to be the new thing for Keith, as when he decided to busk at a Canadian mall, it attracted more that 10,000 people, with some fans driving up to 500km when news about it leaked.
"Maybe I should save the pyros for the busking gigs. A $20,000 firework coming out of an acoustic guitar would be great!"

You don't recover from a spinal cord injury. I don't, apparently. No worries, I know I'm lucky to be alive. I'm lucky to not sit in a wheelchair. And most off all, I am lucky that I know how to deal with physical limitations. How to accept a lesser day and not let my mind control my thoughts Some day you wake up and you feel: "NOT TODAY!"
The first question that arises "Is today going to be OK, or are you going to be in pain?" It is easier than to learn what you are about to speak, to chose the pain. It's too convenient to spit words out "I'm not OK." So I speak from what I know and learn from what I'm about to share. It's a fear and anxiety to be naked right in front of you. Still, with every post I recycle my words as I've done with my life. My lessons are a lesson to myself and I give you a look in how I fight. I can be OK, if I choose so...
I pushed myself up from my wheelchair and climbed into the hospital bed, immediately reaching for my journal next to my pillow. As I started writing, tears wet the paper I was writing on...
4 years ago I witnessed death in my arms and saw what fighting for your last breathe of air really was like. I had been on a dive with my girlfriend and we went too deep for too long. Too irresponsible. After an emergency ascent I saw her bloodshot eyes, her pale face and her blue lips as she was gasping for air.
I took the obligation to fight as a knight and rebel as a Pirate, both warriors for their cause. I don't divide. I unite. I don't listen to Ghandi, Bob Marley or Nelson Mandela. I live them.

The Red Sea
1But the ungodly were assailed to the end by pitiless anger,
for God19.1 Gk he knew in advance even their future actions:
2how, though they themselves had permitted19.2 Other ancient authorities read had changed their minds to permit your people to depart
and hastily sent them out,
they would change their minds and pursue them.
3For while they were still engaged in mourning,
and were lamenting at the graves of their dead,
they reached another foolish decision,
and pursued as fugitives those whom they had begged and compelled to leave.
4For the fate they deserved drew them on to this end,
and made them forget what had happened,
in order that they might fill up the punishment that their torments still lacked,
5and that your people might experience19.5 Other ancient authorities read accomplish an incredible journey,
but they themselves might meet a strange death.
God Guides and Protects His People
6For the whole creation in its nature was fashioned anew,
complying with your commands,
so that your children19.6 Or servants might be kept unharmed.
7The cloud was seen overshadowing the camp,
and dry land emerging where water had stood before,
an unhindered way out of the Red Sea,
and a grassy plain out of the raging waves,
8where those protected by your hand passed through as one nation,
after gazing on marvellous wonders.
9For they ranged like horses,
and leapt like lambs,
praising you, O Lord, who delivered them.
10For they still recalled the events of their sojourn,
how instead of producing animals the earth brought forth gnats,
and instead of fish the river spewed out vast numbers of frogs.
11Afterwards they saw also a new kind19.11 Or production of birds,
when desire led them to ask for luxurious food;
12for, to give them relief, quails came up from the sea.
The Punishment of the Egyptians
13The punishments did not come upon the sinners
without prior signs in the violence of thunder,
for they justly suffered because of their wicked acts;
for they practised a more bitter hatred of strangers.
14Others had refused to receive strangers when they came to them,
but these made slaves of guests who were their benefactors.
15And not only so—but, while punishment of some sort will come upon the former
for having received strangers with hostility,
16the latter, having first received them with festal celebrations,
afterwards afflicted with terrible sufferings
those who had already shared the same rights.
17They were stricken also with loss of sight—
just as were those at the door of the righteous man—
when, surrounded by yawning darkness,
all of them tried to find the way through their own doors.
A New Harmony in Nature
18For the elements changed19.18 Gk changing places with one another,
as on a harp the notes vary the nature of the rhythm,
while each note remains the same.19.18 Meaning of Gk uncertain
This may be clearly inferred from the sight of what took place.
19For land animals were transformed into water creatures,
and creatures that swim moved over to the land.
20Fire even in water retained its normal power,
and water forgot its fire-quenching nature.
21Flames, on the contrary, failed to consume
the flesh of perishable creatures that walked among them,
nor did they melt19.21 Cn: Gk nor could be melted the crystalline, quick-melting kind of heavenly food.
22For in everything, O Lord, you have exalted and glorified your people,
and you have not neglected to help them at all times and in all places.

As Russian producers reap the rewards of import substitution, Austrian exporters are ruing the EU's decision to impose sanctions.
Imposing sanctions against Russia was a mistake which has cost Europe as much as Russia, Vienna's former trade ambassador to Moscow Dietmar Fellner told Austria's Kurier newspaper.
Fellner said that he hopes the sanctions "will soon be abolished," but warned that Austrian exporters will find it tough to return to the Russian market because of a change in Russian consumer tastes, and Russia's import substitution policy.
He said that four years ago was a "paradise market" for Austrian exporters selling expensive luxury products that Russians were willing to buy.
However, in the meantime Russian consumers "have become more price-conscious and critical" of what they buy.
Between 2000 and 2014 the volume of Austrian exports to Russia grew from €654 million to €3.5 billion, and imports from Russia to Austria grew from €1.2 billion to €3.2 billion.
However, following the imposition of sanctions, in 2015 the volume of bilateral trade decreased by 38.1 percent, and by another 9.5 percent in the first nine months of 2016.
As well as counter-sanctions, Russia also instituted a policy of import substitution, which is is already bearing fruit. Last month month Russian Trade and Industry Minister Denis Manturov said that import substitution in the pharmaceutical industry has reached 76 percent.
"We started to engage in this industry at the end of 2007 and have continued actively since 2009. According to statistics from November, more than 76 percent of the products on the list of essential medicines are of Russian manufacture … we believe that by 2018 we can reach 90 percent, which is absolutely possible," Manturov told the Izvestiya newspaper.
Import substitution has also improved in engineering industries. In heavy engineering the share of imports fell from 60 percent in 2014 to 48 percent over the first nine months of 2016. In the power engineering the drop was from 33 to 24 percent, while in oil and gas engineering from 55 to 46 percent.
At the same time, Russia managed to double in 2015 the production of agricultural machinery while in 2016 the share of imports amounted to 48 percent compared to 60 percent in 2014.
Russia was one of Austria's top ten trade partners, and the majority of imports from Austria to Russia were in the pharmaceutical, machine-building and motor industries.
Austria's former trade ambassador said that as Russia begins a slow but steady economic improvement, Austrian firms will find it difficult to re-enter the Russian market.
"The Russian economy is like the Trans-Siberian railway, it takes a long time to get ready, but when its gets moving, it moves a lot," Fellner said.
Sanctions and the Russian government policy of import substitution have also helped Russia's farmers to increase their production.
According to data from Russia's Agricultural Ministry, over 126 million tons of grain was harvested in 2016, the most in Russia's modern history and 16 percent more than in 2015.
Production of other food products such as sunflower oil and milk also increased last year, by 11 percent and two percent respectively.
Between January and November 2016 the production of meat and poultry for slaughter increased by 6.3 percent in comparison with the same period of 2015. Thanks to greater production, the volume of Russian meat imports decreased by 21 percent.
The US, EU and a handful of their allies began to impose a series of sanctions against Russian individuals and businesses in March 2014, following Crimea's decision to secede from Ukraine and join the Russian Federation in the aftermath of the Euromaidan coup d'etat.
Russia retaliated by launching its own sanctions on August 7, 2014, which affected the import of certain food products, such as cheese, vegetables, fruit and meat.
The original decree signed by President Vladimir Putin declared the embargo would last for one year, but it has since been prolonged in step with EU/US sanctions. In December, the EU Council extended anti-Russian sanctions until July 31, 2017, and Russian counter-sanctions have been extended until December 31, 2017.

You're looking at your kitchen cabinets thinking about how they're old and outdated but still intact. Maybe you aren't quite ready to replace them because frames and doors are structurally sound, or a whole new cabinet renovation just isn't in your budget. Whatever the case, for a quick kitchen update, all those cabinets require is a fresh coat of paint!
Brush on a new coat of paint to give your cabinets a quick update! This simple DIY task requires a bit of patience and finesse but can be completed by almost any homeowner. Follow our straightforward steps and your kitchen cabinets will be looking fresh and current in no time!

The most important steps when painting kitchen cabinets do not happen in the painting itself, but in fact, happen in the preparation for the project! To guarantee that your paint job goes as smoothly as possible, you'll want to be good and ready. One of the most common mistakes homeowners make when painting their kitchen cabinets is not removing the doors from their place. However, this step is crucial. Take the doors off, remove all hardware as well as any knobs, hinges or additional drawers you plan on painting. This will make the painting process far easier than attempting to paint the cabinets while they're still in place.
After removing all fixtures, label the doors, drawers and hardware! This step might seem like a waste of time, but in the end, you'll be thanking us! Label each door with tape so you'll know where they go when the job is finished. Use numbered labels, or pieces of masking tape stuck to the backside of each piece.
Following the removal and labelling, you'll want to devote more time to prep the surface of your cabinets. This involves thoroughly cleaning, sanding and priming every inch of the surface. Cleaning the surface of the cabinets is a vital step, allowing for your new paint and primer to adhere properly.
Since kitchens deal with daily grime and grease, years of dirt is hanging around and sticking to your cabinets, so you need to be extra attentive to any buildup or residue.
To do this, you should work with a TSP Substitute. If the cabinets have been cleaned recently, or aren't too greasy, a degreaser will work just fine. It may take a few passes of the substitute or degreaser before the cabinet is fully prepped, so roll up those sleeves and put your arms to work! Not only do you have to clean the cabinets themselves, but make sure to clean the surrounding area as well.
Any grease in the area could make its way onto your freshly painted cabinets, and you don't want your new paint job to be tainted by leftover grime. If you notice any little imperfections on the surface of the cabinets that you want to fill in, now would be the time. If you're working with wood cabinets, use a wood filler.

Even if your cabinets are new or in mint condition, do not skip sanding them. Sanding further prepares the surface for the paint and primer to adhere and skipping this step will likely end in an uneven paint job that you'll be hoping you could take back. A rotary sander can be used for this job, specifically for flat areas of cabinets. Hand sand the parts that are sticking out or any small details on cabinets.
Do not forget about door edges! Determine the type of sandpaper you use based on the shape your cabinets are in. If you're unsure, play it safe and go for medium grain sandpaper. If your cabinets have been previously painted, this may require stripping the surface, which is a necessary extra step!
Some homeowners will be tempted to skip this step or buy a paint-and-primer in one product. But beware, neither of these options will have the desired outcome. Priming the surface is yet another way to prepare for painting, as well as to avoid unwanted knots bleeding through months down the line. Make sure to choose a water-soluble primer or one that has been recommended for the type of surface you are working on, as well as the kitchen.
Also, it is important that the primer is tinted to match the top coat, and is especially crucial if the original surface is dark. You'll want to avoid the potential for the initial colour to bleed through and taint the new paint colour. After your primer coat is dry, gently sand away any imperfections that you find on the surface, but be very careful with this step as you want the primer to stay intact.

After all the initial steps, we are finally ready to paint those kitchen cabinets! Firstly, make sure to choose the correct colour. Although this is a straightforward project, it's not one that you'll want to repeat soon. Make sure that you've painted a test surface to see how the colour dries, and if you're satisfied, then you can go ahead with painting the cabinets. Not only is the colour important, but you'll want to buy the right type of paint for the kitchen.
Choose between acrylic enamel paint and alkyd paint. Water-based acrylic paints have little fumes and clean easily whereas alkyd or oil-based paints need to be applied in a space with good ventilation, as they contain solvents that can irritate the lungs. However, alkyd paints provide a very durable finish.
Buy the best quality paint you can afford, as this will ensure the paint's longevity. There exist self-levelling paints that level out brush marks as the paint dries, making for a super smooth finish. Make sure paint is well-stirred and start with your cabinet doors, as they will need time to dry in order to paint both sides. Complete the paint job with a small brush, making sure to be extra careful around door edges and delicate details.
Finish painting with a foam roller to smooth things out nicely, especially if you're not working with a self-levelling paint. Now, it's time to wait. Don't be too hasty when reattaching cabinet doors; give ample time for everything to dry and your cabinets will be beautiful and ready to use in no time!

No taxation without representation (except in CT) — op-ed
Centuries ago, Connecticut patriots bravely fought for America's independence under the banner of "no taxation without representation." But in modern times, Connecticut ended up with just that. Taxpayers today bear the brunt of an exorbitant fiscal burden foisted upon them outside of the normal democratic process, submitting peacefully to what they would not have accepted without a fight 240 years ago.
The state has spent billions of taxpayer dollars, and committed billions more, via at least 169 government union contracts since 1991 that supersede state law and were approved without a single vote cast in the Assembly for them,
Two major bills recently passed committee that would further the nefarious cause of taxation without representation. The first is a
A prior analysis from the Office of Fiscal Analysis indicates a similar bill would cost more than the stipulated tax would raise
The second bill regards highway tolling, which is the feature issue in Connecticut politics today. Behind Democrats' promise of significant benefits for insignificant costs lies a sleight of hand. One of their three tolling
This legislative dodge enables Democrats to avoid accountability on an issue where
Even if the above bills luckily failed to pass the Assembly, Connecticut would still face an egregious democracy deficit. The status quo was improved slightly in 2017 but remains unacceptable. That year, Assembly Republicans forced reforms that removed the ability of unions and the executive branch to effectuate billions of dollars' worth of collective bargaining agreements for government workers without a vote in the Assembly. However,
The first major offense is binding arbitration for government employee union contracts. Going forward, collective bargaining agreements must be voted on by the Assembly. If most lawmakers reject a contract now, it goes to arbitration. The result of the first arbitration returns to the Assembly for a vote. If most lawmakers vote the new contract down, it returns to arbitration for a second time. However, the second result of arbitration is "deemed approved" regardless of the Assembly's position. So, despite the ceremony, the unions, executive bureaucracy, and arbitrator still hold the power.
Directly related to that is the second offense: collective bargaining agreements supersede state law. If the Assembly passes a bill that contradicts a collective bargaining agreement, the relevant provisions of the former are void. Government unions take precedence over voters.
The third major offense against democracy in Connecticut is collective bargaining, particularly for government employee health and pension benefits. Currently the state is one of only four that determine retirement benefits for such workers by collective bargaining. The rest of the nation refuses it because it is expensive, opaque, and an offense against representative government per se. Collective bargaining means the appropriation and disbursement of the people's money is determined by negotiations between unions representing private interests and the executive branch, without legislative input and electoral recourse.
The burdens fall broadly on the people of Connecticut, while the power and benefits go to a narrow group. Under this perverse regime, it is little wonder Connecticut has suffered the
An otherwise failed historian once quipped that "history repeats itself, first as tragedy, then as farce." What's gone on over and over and over again in Connecticut state government is a farce. Voters should no longer permit Democrat politicians and government unions to make a mockery of Connecticut. "No taxation without representation" should be the clarion call for voters every year until representative democracy is fully restored in the Constitution State.
