Facing the Mirror Inward
II Cor 1:3-11
Yesterday was Sunday. Like every Sunday, I awoke ready to attend church. This Sunday, however, would be unlike any other I have experienced thus far during my stay in Peru. Lately, I had been noticing something that I had never really experienced to the fullest extent while on the mission field... Culture Shock
The culture shock that I was experiencing was causing me anxiety by the barrel-full. There had been many times when I had felt so stressed that I felt the need to escape to ease the tension hanging within my own ribcage.
Last evening at church, however, God showed up in a big way! During a panic attack, I stood a the front of the church in deep thought.
Why am I feeling so anxious? What is there to worry about? as I stood deeply immersed in thought, a voice not of my own interrupted, and GOD SHOWED UP!
I was reminded of Jesus' interaction with the man with a demon-posessed boy in Mark 9. The disciples were unable to drive out the demon, so the desperate man took his grossly troubled son to Jesus who said to him, "all things are possible for one who believes". The man cried out, "I believe, help my unbelief"
Standing in the middle of my anxiety attack, my heart uttered the prayer, Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief INSTANTLY, the anxiety subsided and a new inner strength that I hadn't felt since leaving Canada returned to me. I'm not quite sure why I had been troubled with the bouts of anxiety. I'm not quite sure why I had been experiencing such a massive volley of culture shock this trip. One thing that I am sure of is that the very same words that Paul wrote to the church at Corinth still remain true to this day.... "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort who comforts us in all our affliction". This comfort of the Father is not solely for our blessing, rather, "so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
It is a wonderful thing to be able to tell people that God comforts those who are being afflicted. When we are able to relate to someone's afflictions, the testimony that we carry provides all the more certainty that God still blesses with healing, comfort, love and care today. During my time in Peru, I have had numerous privileges of being a testimony that God's love, mercy and miracles still ring just as true today as they did during Christ's earthly ministry. We are comforted for a purpose.... We are
Comforted to be comforters
This is our calling....This is our ministry as followers of Christ

The last time I saw my brother, he introduced me to the term "delighter"; the most simple definition of which is 'something that gives or causes delight'. My brother described it a little bit differently as in when you are watching a movie and the movie is good and you are ready to love it and then something happens in the movie that confirms your hopes of loving it and allows you to freely give that love. Like in The Italian Job with Michael Caine: you're ready to love it because it was made in 1969 and it's a heist movie but then you realize that the getaway plan consists of 3 minis, red, white and blue and your like "yeah, worth the price of admission!!".
I recently read about the Pitch Drop Experiment. It is the world's longest running lab experiment, started in 1927 when Thomas Parnell poured hot pitch into a funnel and let it cool to show how viscous a fluid could be. In the article, Nick Paumgarten mentions that no one has ever seen a drop fall (it took eight years before for the first drop fell) and that this unpredictability is one of nature's greatest offerings. Nature is, of course, the most awesome of delighters. We know that, every year, spring follows winter and yet we always thrill at the first sign of a bud on a tree. Intrigued by the pitch drop experiment, I did my own abbreviated version with honey (I wanted to make sure I was present when the first drop fell and I didn't feel like I had eight years to wait). Watching the honey drip was mesmerizing and, well, delightful. I felt myself willing each drip to drop and then spring back up in order to do it all over again. It was so beautiful. It was also an easy way to get my fix of the moment before expectation becomes a certainty.

Nicea, Athanasius and His Creed
Trinity Sunday is 11 June 2006. The old Book of Common Prayer encourages the use of the Athanasian Creed, a creed based on the Bible, on Whitsunday and Trinity Sunday. But few churches ever now say this Creed in public, as at first it seems a little difficult. However, to make up for that at JPC, I like to write about it from time to time and provide a copy of the text for reading.
Nicea and the Trinity
We need to start with the Council of Nicea in AD 325. This was a pivotal moment in the history of the Church. At stake was the divinity of Christ. The issue was this: was the Church going to follow the historic facts regarding Jesus in, what someone has called, all their "dizzying and unfathomable truth"? Or was the Church going to refuse to face those facts? Were the Nicene Fathers going to say something that was more comfortable and more understandable - namely that Jesus was not truly divine and but was himself a creature and there was a time "when he was not"? Or were they going to follow the Apostles and the trinitarian faith of the Bible and confess him as, yes, fully a man, but also as their Lord and God?
The Bible makes the "tri" "unity" in God clear. He is both three and one. Jesus had told his disciples to baptize "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matthew 28.19) - note "name", not plural "names". The Trinity is, of course, a mystery beyond our understanding. But this is no different from other divine realities such as God's eternity, his infinity, his being all knowing and his providential control of our free actions. As the prophet Isaiah put it, "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts" (55.9). The facts given us by the New Testament Apostles, who were eyewitnesses from the time of Jesus himself, point inescapably to God's essential three-in-oneness. The Apostles show that the Jesus who was prayed to, prayed to God as his Father. He also promised that he and his Father would send "another Counsellor" to continue his divine ministry after he left this world. The Trinity is also seen in our salvation - the Father planning it, the Son dying for us and the Spirit making it real in our lives (see 2 Corinthians 13.14; Ephesians 1.3-14; 2 Thessalonians 2.13ff; 1 Peter 1.2). God's grace in Christ's incarnation, especially in his death and resurrection, emphatically revealed the one God to be plural. And that plurality was explicitly taught by Jesus himself, as being one with God while fully human (see Luke 24.39; John 10.30).
The Nicene and Athanasian Creeds
At Nicea the Church Fathers voted not to follow Arius, a revisionist (or heretical) clergyman. Arius led those wanting to interpret Jesus in the light of contemporary wisdom and deny his full divinity and say he was created. Thankfully, the majority of the Nicene Fathers followed his opponent, Athanasius. The fundamental issue can be seen in a phrase in the Nicene Creed that we say at Holy Communion. We say Jesus is "of one being with the Father", or, as the old Book of Common Prayer translates it, "of one substance with the Father". The original Greek word was homoousion, "of the same or identical being". Others had wanted homoiousion. The additional "i" or iota, meant, "of like being". That failed to say Jesus was divine, but only godly or "godlike". So it was rejected. Thomas Carlyle was, surely, right to comment that one iota marked the difference between paganism and Christianity.
What followed the Council of Nicea was similar to what has followed the last Anglican Lambeth Conference of 1998 (in 1998 there was a clear decision that homosexual sex was not right because the Bible forbids it). The revisionist (or heretical) elements in the Church in the 4th century then were (and in the 21st century now are) defying the agreed decisions. Athanasius found things very hard. It has been said that the history of the years after Nicea is little more than a history of the persecutions of Athanasius. Richard Hooker, the Anglican Reformer, wrote: "this was the plain condition of these times: the whole world against Athanasius, and Athanasius against it." As today, many of the Bishops caved in. But God was in control. By the time of the Council of Chalcedon in AD 451 the truth had prevailed. The final consensus is reflected in the Creed named after Athanasius, our Athanasian Creed. This is the most theological of the three basic creeds (the Apostles' Creed being the earliest and simplest). Its doctrines are statements that follow the facts and the mystery rather than try to explain them. They form a boundary or fence around the truth. They are important for what is being ruled out, for example, tritheism, that there are three gods or Unitarianism, that there is one God who is not three and Christ not divine, or modalism, that the one God is simply playing three roles.
The Text
What then does the Athanasian creed say? Here is a modern translation by C.H. Turner and it is based on the revised Latin text:
"Whoever desires to be saved must above all things hold the Catholic (or Universal) faith. Unless a man keeps it in its entirety inviolate, he will assuredly perish eternally (see the 'Conclusion' below).
Now this is the Catholic faith, that we worship one God in Trinity and Trinity in unity, without confusing the persons or dividing the substance. For the Father's person is one, the Son's another, the Holy Spirit's another; but the Godhead of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit is one, their glory is equal, their majesty coeternal.
Such as the Father is, such is the Son, such also the Holy Spirit. The Father is increate, the Son increate, the Holy Spirit increate. The Father is infinite, the Son infinite, the Holy Spirit infinite. The Father is eternal, the Son eternal, the Holy Spirit eternal. Yet there are not there eternals, but one eternal; just as there are not three increates or three infinites, but one increate and one infinite. In the same way the Father is almighty, the Son almighty, the Holy Spirit almighty; yet there are not three almighties, but one almighty.
Thus the Father is God, the Son God, the Holy Spirit God; and yet there are not three Gods, but there is one God. Thus the Father is Lord, the Son Lord, the Holy Spirit Lord; and yet there are not three Lords, but there is one Lord. Because just as we are obliged by Christian truth to acknowledge each person separately both God and Lord, so we are forbidden by the Catholic religion to speak of three Gods or Lords.
The Father is from none, not made nor created nor begotten. The Son is from the Father alone, not made nor created but begotten. The Holy Spirit is from the Father and the Son, not made nor created nor begotten but proceeding. So there is one Father, not three Fathers; one Son, not three Sons; one Holy Spirit, not three Holy Spirits. And in this trinity there is nothing before or after, nothing greater or less, but all three persons are coeternal with each other and coequal. Thus in all things, as has been stated above both Trinity in unity and unity in Trinity must be worshipped. So he who desires to be saved should think thus of the Trinity.
It is necessary, however, to eternal salvation that he should also faithfully believe in the Incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ. Now the right faith is that we should believe and confess that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is equally both God and man.
He is God from the Father's substance, begotten before time; and he is man from his mother's substance, born in time. Perfect God, perfect man composed of a rational soul and human flesh, equal to the Father in respect of his divinity, less than the Father in respect of his humanity.
Who although he is God and man, is nevertheless not two but one Christ. He is one, however, not by the transformation of his divinity into flesh, but by the taking up of his humanity into God; one certainly not by confusion of substance, but by oneness of person. For just as rational soul and flesh are a single man, so God and man are a single Christ.
Who suffered for our salvation, descended to hell, rose from the dead, ascended to heaven, sat down at the Father's right hand, whence he will come to judge living and dead: at whose coming all men will rise again with their bodies, and will render an account of their deeds; and those who have behaved well will go to eternal life, those who have behaved badly to eternal fire.
This is the Catholic faith. Unless a man believes it faithfully and steadfastly, he will not be able to be saved."
With regard to the first paragraph (and in the old BCP translation of the Latin it reads, "Which faith except every one do keep whole and undefiled, without doubt he shall perish everlastingly"), C.S.Lewis helpfully said the following: "The operative word is keep; not acquire, or even believe but keep. The author, in fact, is not talking about unbelievers, but about deserters ... who having really understood and really believed, then allow themselves, under the sway of sloth or of fashion, ... to be drawn away into sub-Christian modes of thought."

Warning: Touchy-feely blog post ahead. You have been warned.
At the risk of sounding like a soft-headed lefty, I thought that I might pass along an observance I have been building recently. I have often felt that human beings are inherently bad, or stupid, or even simply selfish. I believe that this is true. But I also believe that these same humans are inherently good, and smart, and selfless. Maybe it just depends on what time of day you catch a person, or what kind of night he had the day before. Maybe she's hungry, or he just had a great cup of coffee. Whatever it is, I have discovered that I feel a certain… responsibility to do what I can to affect the people with whom I come into contact for the better.
Now obviously, there is only so much a random encounter can do, and I'm not talking about following someone home from the grocery store to paint their fence or give their dog a bath, but smaller, easier ways to influence people's moods and give them a happier day, even if it's just a by the tiniest bit.
When I'm out and about, and someone I don't even know takes the effort to say "hi," I feel better. If three people do it, I'm on top of the world. I'll be thinking about it all day. And it doesn't take much, just a smile, maybe a nod. Acknowledgment. Positivity. Validation. In an effortless way, it says, "I see you. You're just as good as anyone else here. You're not alone."
Now I'm not suggesting that running around saying "howdy" to everyone you see is going to end the world's violence or solve any major political or economic crises… but does it really have to do that to be worthwhile? Wouldn't it be enough to think you might have brightened someone's life just a bit? Some stranger who's now going to think about how three people at the lifted him out of his funk and now he's going to be inexplicably nice to the next person he comes across?
As an experiment, try to notice when someone you don't know is good to you. It doesn't have to be much, just a little nicer than they needed to be. Think about how it makes you feel and consider, wouldn't you like to be like that guy?

Domestic steel prices have decreased sharply and steel price momentum seems to have slowed. Prices traded lower in September and continued the downtrend in October. Buying organizations may want to remember that domestic steel prices have remained at more than seven-year highs this year.

All forms of steel fell in September. HRC, CRC and HDG showed weaker momentum. Meanwhile, plate prices held stronger in September. Plate prices had the support of low metal availability.
However, plate prices started to lose momentum and decrease at the end of the month.

The recent slowdown in steel prices comes down to historical steel price cyclicality. Domestic steel prices have remained in a sharp uptrend since January 2018. Prices have started to come off slightly but remain higher than last year's average.
Domestic stainless steel surcharges fell for the third time since the beginning of the year.
The 316/316L-coil NAS surcharge fell to $0.94/pound, while the 304/304L decreased to $0.65/pound.

The pace of stainless steel surcharge increases seems to have slowed this month, along with steel (and stainless steel) price increases.
However, stainless steel surcharges still remain well above 2015-2017 lows.

4th Sunday of Lent
March 26, 2006
4th Sunday of Lent - B
In those days, all the princes of Judah, the priests, and the people
added infidelity to infidelity, practicing all the abominations of the
nations and polluting the LORD's temple which he had consecrated in
Jerusalem. Early and often did the LORD, the God of their fathers, send
his messengers to them, for he had compassion on his people and his
dwelling place. But they mocked the messengers of God, despised his
warnings, and scoffed at his prophets, until the anger of the LORD
against his people was so inflamed that there was no remedy. Their
enemies burnt the house of God, tore down the walls of Jerusalem, set
all its palaces afire, and destroyed all its precious objects. Those
who escaped the sword were carried captive to Babylon, where they
became servants of the king of the Chaldeans and his sons until the
kingdom of the Persians came to power. All this was to fulfill the word
of the LORD spoken by Jeremiah: "Until the land has retrieved its lost
sabbaths, during all the time it lies waste it shall have rest while
seventy years are fulfilled." In the first year of Cyrus, king of
Persia, in order to fulfill the word of the LORD spoken by Jeremiah,
the LORD inspired King Cyrus of Persia to issue this proclamation
throughout his kingdom, both by word of mouth and in writing: "Thus
says Cyrus, king of Persia: All the kingdoms of the earth the LORD, the
God of heaven, has given to me, and he has also charged me to build him
a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever, therefore, among you
belongs to any part of his people, let him go up, and may his God be
with him!"
Brothers and sisters: God, who is rich in mercy, because of the great
love he had for us, even when we were dead in our transgressions,
brought us to life with Christ--by grace you have been saved--, raised
us up with him, and seated us with him in the heavens in Christ Jesus,
that in the ages to come he might show the immeasurable riches of his
grace in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been
saved through faith, and this is not from you; it is the gift of God;
it is not from works, so no one may boast. For we are his handiwork,
created in Christ Jesus for the good works that God has prepared in
advance, that we should live in them.
Jesus said to Nicodemus: "Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the
desert, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, so that everyone who
believes in him may have eternal life." For God so loved the world that
he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not
perish but might have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into
the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved
through him. Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever
does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not
believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the verdict,
that the light came into the world, but people preferred darkness to
light, because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked
things hates the light and does not come toward the light, so that his
works might not be exposed. But whoever lives the truth comes to the
light, so that his works may be clearly seen as done in God.
In the Book of Exodus, when Moses was leading the Israelites from the
land of slavery in Egypt to the Promised Land in Palestine, the people
lost faith in his leadership and criticized both Moses and God.
In order to discipline them, God sent an invasion of poisonous
serpents, and many died from the bite of those snakes. The people then
repented and asked Moses to intercede for them with God, which Moses
did. God immediately responded with forgiveness. He told Moses to make
a bronze serpent and to set it on a pole, so that the people could
easily see it. And from then, on all who were bitten by a snake and
looked with faith at the bronze serpent were saved.
In today's Gospel Jesus parallels this Exodus event to his own
crucifixion on Calvary. He explains that whoever looks upon him with
faith will be healed spiritually just as the Israelites were healed,
when they looked upon the bronze serpent.
How does the Exodus event relate to us? The message for us is quite
simple. All of us are victims of sin. From the time of Adam and Eve in
the Garden of Eden gave in to the temptation of the Satanic Snake,
mankind has been poisoned by pride, greed, lust, envy, laziness,
gluttony, hatred, violence, corruption, and all forms of sin. In all of
us, the poison of sin is present and undermines our spiritual life.
Our only hope is to go to Jesus, our brother and healer. On the cross
he offered himself up on our behalf and obtained for us a new life of
intimacy with God and our fellowmen. But we must receive that new life
from him. He is forever the only source of salvation. If we look up to
him with trust, he will heal us by the Holy Spirit of love, whom he has
the power to give to all men. The Spirit of God, who is the very life
of the Father and the Son, is the all-effective remedy, which can
gradually free us from pride, greed, lust, envy, and the rest.
St. John reminds us most emphatically of something we always tend to
forget: that God is not a judge! On the contrary, God is a Savior. He
is essentially a savior. Consequently, when he sent his Son into the
world, it was for one purpose and one only - to save us. For indeed,
left to ourselves we can only perish far from him. By giving us his
Son, he provides us with the only means for healing us of our
destructive tendencies towards hatred, greed, ambition, exploitation,
backbiting, and jealousy.
John follows the reference to Jesus' crucifixion with these words in
verse 16: "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so
that everyone who believes in him may not die, but may have eternal
life." And verse 17 reads: "For God did not send his Son into the world
to be its judge, but to be its Savior."
These two verses have been called a summary of the Bible.
God respects our freedom. He wants to save us. That is his deepest
desire, but He cannot save us if we do not want to be saved. Of us God
asks only one thing: to accept the gift of his Son.
We pray -
- for a deep and profound respect for life, especially for the
- for the speedy recovery and healing of Bernardita Galero.
- for the speedy recovery and healing of Dionisio Galero.
- for the personal intentions of Mian Atencio.
- for all the prayer intentions in the MTQ Dailyprayer Diary.
- Birthday: Filbert Aaron G. Tiu
- In Memoriam (+): Consuelo Cunanan (Mar 24, 1914 - Jan 8, 1981)
- for world peace and reconciliation.
Finally, we pray for one another, for those who have asked our
prayers and for those who need our prayers the most.
Have a good day!

As of late, I have been asked about the status of marijuana legalization in New Jersey quite frequently. In fact, I have a number of recent clients who have been charged with possession of small amounts of weed and expressed surprise over their arrests because they believed that marijuana possession is legal. It isn't.
Earlier this year, Jersey City became the first municipality in New Jersey to decriminalize marijuana possession. While marijuana laws remain on the books, Jersey City has decided to avoid prosecution for low-level marijuana possession.
After Jersey City's bold move, Attorney General Gurbir Grewal stayed pending marijuana cases in the state until he issued a directive to county and municipal prosecutors that the state will not decriminalize marijuana possession. Rather, Grewal stated, "Municipalities cannot decriminalize conduct that the Legislature has criminalized… They can and should strive to ensure that individual justice is done in individual cases."
What does this mean?
It means that we in New Jersey are left with a mess. Currently there is unequal application of the prosecution of marijuana offenses throughout the state because prosecutors hold significantly varying points of view on marijuana legalization county by county and town by town.
Last week, NJ.com reported that there will be no vote in the New Jersey State Legislature in 2018, but there is a big push for a vote early next year. Until then, the laws stay on the books and you may or may not be prosecuted depending upon where you live. We can probably expect a vote to legalize marijuana in 2019 once the state lawmakers figure which of their buddies get the dispensary and distribution licenses, how and how much marijuana will be taxed, and how to roll out legalization.
In the meantime, if you are caught with recreational marijuana in New Jersey and wonder if you'll be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, just flip a coin.

Friday's Mini-Report, 10.12.18
Today's edition of quick hits:
* A climbing death toll: "The death toll from Hurricane Michael's devastating march up the East Coast rose to 13 on Friday as the storm lashed Virginia and killed at least five people in the state."
* The tech giant didn't need another controversy, but it has one anyway: "Facebook said on Friday that hackers were able to access the personal information of 14 million people through a security flaw that the company first disclosed last month, and that the data exposed included information such as recent check-ins and searches."
* Donald Trump this morning asserted that "everyone wants Ivanka Trump to be the new United Nations Ambassador." He didn't explain who's included in "everyone."
* Two years later: "A Turkish court on Friday convicted American pastor Andrew Brunson of aiding terrorism but sentenced him to time served and ordered his immediate release. The case of the evangelical preacher caught up in Turkey's post-coup security sweep had garnered attention at the highest levels of the U.S. government and become a sore point in the two countries' relations."
* A rather extraordinary mess in West Virginia: "Acting justices on the state Supreme Court issued a ruling to block the impeachment trial of Justice Margaret Workman, putting the legislative and judicial branches of West Virginia's state government in direct conflict."
* Another step backwards: "Over the course of 12 months, the U.S. Army discharged more than 500 immigrant enlistees who were recruited across the globe for their language or medical skills and promised a fast track to citizenship in exchange for their service, The Associated Press has found."
* The long sought "roadmap" may go public: "A federal judge has ordered the partial release of a Watergate report that fueled an impeachment drive against President Richard Nixon and could serve as a precedent for a similar effort aimed at President Donald Trump."
* Oh my: "When asked on Fox News if he thought former economic adviser Gary Cohn was a major source for Bob Woodward's bestselling book Fear: Trump in the White House, President Trump replied that he 'could very well have been.' Then he hinted that he's got dirt on Cohn: 'I can tell stories about him like you wouldn't believe.'"
Anything to add? Consider this an open thread.

If you use your creditcard you will get a ten precent discount. You can save up to Rs 4,550. That is a very good deal! The cashback amount will be transferred to your creditcard so keep in mind that you don't get actual cash back. If you do deciede to buy an Iphone watch out for bad websites that are only after your money. The safest way to buy an iphone is at a Apple store or stores that can sell Iphones legally.

Where do fairies come from?
People don't know where fairies come from and I suppose I am no different, although for a moment I thought I knew.
The stories of the fair folk are many and always varied. There are stories about children's laughter dancing itself to life. Lovely little creatures spring from piles of flower petals. Other, more tricky beauties appear in piles of composted plants (I'll be honest, I'm an avid gardener for just this reason). Then there are some silly people who think fairies
made at all.
I suspect that last notion is not true though. As to the rest, I couldn't say. When I finally met a fairy (and I suppose you won't believe me) I was not in my garden.
You see, I have a fairy in my house. Now
before I lose you entirely, hear me out. I didn't believe it at first either.
She arrived in my home one day, a total stranger. The electricity was flickering because of a thunderstorm. I was sitting by the fireplace and I had no piles of flower petals. There were no children in my house to laugh. I was enjoying the warmth and dim light while I thought about literature (Beatrice has a lovely line in Much Ado About Nothing regarding stars that dance, but I can't recall it now). The lightning flashed, the lights flicked out, and then sitting on my hearth was a tiny little creature with the form of a human, but none of the size. She had large blue eyes, a bulbous head, and pointed ears. It startled me
, of course. Even
I jumped up and took a step back, which frightened the poor fairy. Can you imagine how big I looked to her? She was barely the size of my foot! I ran to the kitchen, not trusting my eyes. Perhaps I had sat near the fire too long. A little water should set me right.
I drank my water and had a long discussion with my reason. What had just happened? What would happen next? Did she mean me harm? Why had she come
to me? What did she need? As my questions spiralled the drain with my
dish soap, I heard a low song coming from the next room.
It was
kind of sad, but somehow still full of hope. It moved
me. I still can't tell you why. Perhaps it was a lie, some fairy magic meant to
trap unsuspecting people. Maybe it was the truth.
All I know is that I could not hide from her. I went to the hearth and scooped her up off of the bricks. I didn't care anymore what happened
to me. (This recklessness suggests that it must have been some magic
after all. Why else would a logical woman like me have no regard for her
When I scooped her into my arms, something wonderful and strange happened.
Nothing at all.
She laid her head against my shoulder and fell asleep. I held her for a while. The hope and sadness of her song resonated in me. She could not help but sing even when she slept. We spent the morning like that.
My favourite part of the day was when her arms and legs sprouted into vines. She wrapped around my arms and waist, clutching me like
bit of moss on a tree. It was a strange sensation, and more than a little
cumbersome. But it felt so nice to be held.
That day passed too soon. If I could do it all over again, I would worry less and enjoy it more. I kept thinking about what would happen next. How would I feed her? What do fairies even eat? She ate nothing, but she still grew.
In fact, that made me finally stop worrying. She was growing. She was getting big. And I didn't know if it was a good thing.
The vines of her arms and legs retreated into her shoulders and hips. They moved under her skin and across her back, swelling beneath the skin. She wasn't holding on anymore. I held her tight so she wouldn't fall out of my arms onto the floor. I stood in front of a mirror with this lovely fairy in my arms and watched a terrifying bulge grow on her back. Her song grew under the weight.
I remember tears rolling down my face because I couldn't do anything to stop the lump that grew on her little shoulders. She curled into the hollow of my neck. Her legs hung down from my arms. Still she sang.
She cried out in pain and it is a sound I will remember for thousands of years after I die. Then, all at once, the lump on her shoulder burst open, blooming into a glorious pair of wings larger than the whole of her body. I marvelled at the brilliant tones of crystal blue, rosy pink, and cool black designs intricately woven onto her. She was so lovely to look at, I could not help but cry.
She uncurled herself from around me and no longer hid her face in my neck. Before I was ready, she floated backward out of my arms, lifted by the wings that had hurt so badly to sprout. I looked up at her with tears still rolling down my cheeks. All that time spent worrying about what happens next and I finally knew. The spell broke; it had done its job. I could see that she would be okay. I feared for myself again. I didn't know how I would do without her.
She reached down and put a hand on my cheek, drying my tears. I placed my hand on hers and looked up at her deep blue eyes. They were stronger, fierce. There was no fear in them anymore, and barely a hint of fragility.
Then she smiled at me. "Thank you," she said. "I'll never forget this."
I nodded and did my best to pause my tears so she could fly away. I held the door for her, but hoped she might stay a little longer and wait out the storm. But wings that
are well made can fly in rain and thunder.
In a flash as quick as she came, she was gone.
She visits me sometimes. We'll sit on the patio together and sing happy silly songs. Sometimes I see cuts and bruises on her and I wonder where she's been, or if she needs me. Other times she leaves flowers on my table. I gave her a key a long time ago.
I still don't know where fairies come from, but, I confess, I sit by the fire thinking of Shakespeare more often than I used to.

I, like Rush, can think of no other way to say this. People, we have to sober up here from the intoxicating effect of Obama and wake up to the fact that he is in the process of destroying the economy of this country.
It amazes me that no one out here can see what is going on. I mean think about this here. Since he has taken office, he has spent over 2 trillion dollars, and no one seems to think anything about this. First off my friends, can any of you imagine what a trillion dollars would look like? How much per hour you would have to make to make a trillion in your lifetime, with no time off to sleep or rest or vacation or spend it?
But the latest on what Obama is doing, is that he is now working on a new work bill. But now wait. We are all still waiting for your last work bill to work. So far, it hasn't. As a matter of fact, unemployment figures just jumped up again, and all the "experts" on the subject, said that the current jump, was totaly unexpected.
This caught me by surprise because I had been expecting it. All through history, historians have said that you cannot spend your way out of a recession. That it has to follow it's path, and naturally come out of it. Spending to bring a country out, will make the recession deeper and last longer. A good example of that was the great depression. If the government then had stayed out of it, the country would most likely have come out of the recession years before. But it seems that politicians do not learn their lessons from history. They just keep on going with the ideals that they want to push. Like Obama and his socialism.
Not to change the subject, but today has been a bad day for celebrities. This morning I heard on the news that Farrah Fawcett died, at the age of 62 of cancer, and just a few minutes ago, I heard the news of Michael Jackson's death. From an AP story here are the details:
LOS ANGELES – Michael Jackson, the moonwalking former child star who became known the world over as the "King of Pop" before his life and career deteriorated in a freakish series of scandals, died Thursday, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press. He was 50. The person said Jackson died in a Los Angeles hospital. The person was not authorized to speak publicly and requested anonymity.
The circumstances of his death were not immediately clear. Jackson was not breathing when Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to a call at his Los Angeles home about 12:30 p.m., Capt. Steve Ruda told the Los Angeles Times. The paramedics performed CPR and took him to UCLA Medical Center, Ruda told the newspaper.
Jackson's death brought a tragic end to a long, bizarre, sometimes farcical decline from his peak in the 1980s, when he was popular music's premier all-around performer, a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV, dominated the charts and dazzled even more on stage.
He was perhaps the most exciting performer of his generation, known for his feverish, crotch-grabbing dance moves, his high-pitched voice punctuated with squeals and titters. His single sequined glove and tight, military-style jacket were trademarks second only to his ever-changing, surgically altered appearance. Over the years, his skin became lighter and his nose narrower.
May their souls rest in peace. And May God Bless America.
God Bless America and her troops
God Bless my readers, my listeners on BTR and my viewers on You Tube…..

Lawmakers in New York State have introduced bills that would prohibit developers from building garbage incinerators in the Finger Lakes Watershed.
Circular enerG is proposing to build a $365 million waste-to-energy (WTE) facility in Romulus, N.Y., between lakes Seneca and Cayuga. The facility would burn up to 2,640 tons of waste per day and draw 445,000 gallons of water a day from Seneca Lake.
This proposal has received negative feedback, with environmentalists and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo opposing the project. The proposed incinerator would reportedly bring thousands of tons of trash from around the state daily by truck or rail for burning, according to a WENY News report.
WENY News has more details:
New York State lawmakers have introduced bills that would stop developers from building garbage incinerators in the Finger Lakes.
The bills were introduced by Democratic Senators Rachel May and Pamela Herring and Republican Senator Michael Cusick. The bills also received strong support from Republican Assembly members Phil Palmesano and Brian Kolb.
The legislation would prohibit trash incinerators in the Finger Lakes Watershed, which would eliminate Rochester-based start-up company Circular enerG's proposal to build one at the former Seneca Army Depot.

We were disappointed that your dog companion in Far Cry 5 couldn't ride in your car with you and instead ran behind. According to the official Twitter feed for the franchise, the dog in February's Far Cry New Dawn will ride with you, as the game's debut trailer last night teased.
Ubisoft has finally fixed the deadzone issue in Far Cry 3 Classic Edition just in time for its standalone release today. It was my only major complaint when playing the port last month, with a lack of analog stick sensitivity making precise aiming extremely difficult. That's no longer the case.

A six month step project .. Really? Yes, really. I first found out about this project from the homeowner's neighbors. You see, we were actually working a few houses down and across the street. As we usually do, we say Hi and answer questions from neighbors walking by. Some people are curious as to what is going on and some others actually stop by because they want work done at their house and would like a quotation. I always prefer the latter, nonetheless, one lady stopped by and we got to talking. She said that her neighbor was having a terrible time with the contractor working on their front entrance. She went on to say that this contractor was doing a few jobs on this street. He would start working on one house, than an hour later, he would move to the next house and do an hour's worth of work there. Than poof, he would leave all together. He would not be seen for a week or more than repeat his "formula." The neighbor was impressed with our work habits, she said "you're here all day and you never leave. You just work."
Isn't that the way it's supposed to be? This is usually the sign of experience vs no experience. Whenever we start a project we won't leave until it's done. It's just a bad thing to do. The customer get's upset because they want their project done, and wouldn't it be a better use of the contractor's time to stay on one job untill it's done than move to the next one. I guess that just makes too much sense.
I didn't want to step on anyone's toes so I just waited on the sideline till this train wreck came to a halt. After repeated calls to this contractor, he finally showed up and did some work. Some progress was made but what about the quality of work?
From the pictures below the original steps were constructed with concrete block. Concrete block would form a series of boxes which would be the step treads. The risers would be covered with 1" flagstone. The coping would also be 1" flagstone. I do not recommend doing steps this way. With the freeze and thaw that happens every year, cracks would form, water would get in and stones would start popping off. It didn't even take one winter and stones starting falling off. The top landing area in front of the door had some flagstones installed. The contractor installed them in the hottest part of the day and the mortar dried too quickly. The result was very little adhesion. With very little traffic over the stones, most starting coming loose and falling off. This was the final straw.
The homeowner finally got fed up and told their contractor to never return. Leave whatever supplies they had on the property and Do Not Come Back. Unfortunately the homeowner gave the contractor a progress payment, money lost. Fortunately it wasn't too large, in terms of dollar amount. The emotional loss can be just as much. This puts a strain on the family.
This is where I was called in. I started talking with the homeowner about how we could fix their entrance. At this point the homeowner was more diligent in their process. References were checked, valid liability insurance was checked. I went on to say that Terraform Contracting is a Unilock Authorized Contractor. Uvision 3d design, it's a great place to start.
I think very highly of the authorized contractor program. It's primary goal is to avoid situations like the one that I'm describing here and to connect the right contractor for the right type of project. Unilock always says. We trust these contractor's so much that we would send any one of them to our mother's house and do work. Every year I have to sign a code of ethics, Unilock has vetted out all the bad apples. These are only top tier contractors, and just because you were authorized this year, there's no guarantee you will be signed back up next year. If you have too many complaints, are not engaging and not staying leading edge Unilock may decide to not sign you up to be authorized. So when I say I'm a Unilock Authorized Contractor it means something.
Signs to look for, The bad.
- Erratic work habits. Show up for an hour or two, than leave.
- Hard to get a hold of. Never answers the phone.
- Slow progress. Questionable quality of completed work.
- Used materials/seconds/B Grade products just "showing up"
- How large is the crew, are they experienced and knowledgeable.
- Is this their main line of work or just a sideline?
- Has the contractor completed similar projects and can I go see them.
How to avoid problems
"Connect" with the right contractor from the start. Become Paver Wise, a great document from Unilock on how to hire a professional.
Products used on this project:
Steps: Unilock, Pisa II, Pisa Coping, Mahogany
Pavers: Unilock, Brussels Block, Mahogany Ash
Pebbles: 1" - 3"
Edging: Snapedge

Markdown is a light markup language, it is a simple way to write content and give style to it, and it is one of the ways to write content in Jekyll.
Markdown is simple to write and read, is a format that is easy to convert to other formats like HTML, PDF, etc.
The simplicity of Markdown restricts that the content style could get complicated, allowing for a simple style.
Note: In Jekyll content files requires a YAML header and can contain HTML tags and liquid tags.
Text formatting in Markdown
In Markdown you can format the text using the following features:
Text with Emphasis
It will add enphasis to the text when enclosing between asterisc "*" or underlined "_".
*emphasis*, or _emphasis_ (normally would be output as italic)
**strong enphasis**, or __strong emphasis__ (normally would be output as strong)
Titles or headlines
The headlines are defined by preceding the text with a hash "#", in a way that the least number of hashes the higher the priority.
# First level
## Second level
### Third level
###### Sixth level
But besides the first 2 levels can be defined with a line of "equal sign"
= characters or "substraction sign"
First level
Second Level
The lists are defined by an asterisc "*" in the begning of each line or a minus sign "-" and a space for non numbered lists (bullets) or a number with a dot and a space for numbered lists.
* Red
* Yellow
* Green
* Blue
1. First element
2. Second element
3. Third element
When you need to define code in the text you use the "`" character for code in the same line or 3 consecutive characters for multiple lines.
This code `hello` is on the same line.
Code in several lines
that respects tabs
and spaces
In Jekyll you can also use pygments to do syntax highlight.
{% highlight sql %}
{% endhighlight %}
The quoted text is preceded with the greater than ">" sign before each line.
> This is a quoted line that will be converted to "blockquote
The links are defined by enclosing the text in square brackets next to the link URL enclosed in parenthesis and optionally the link title between quotes next to the URL.
[This is a link](http://www.thesite.com "Title goes here")
The images are define similar to the links, but preceded with an exclamation sign "!".
![Alternate text here](http://www.thesite.com/myimage.png "Title of the image here")
This way we get a simple, clean and styled code.
