Psa 141:9 Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, And from the gins of the workers of iniquity. 10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, Whilst that I withal escape. Psa 57:6 They have prepared a net for my steps; My soul is bowed down: They have digged a pit before me; They are fallen into the midst thereof themselves. Selah. Psa 7:15 He hath made a pit, and digged it, And is fallen into the ditch which he made. 16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, And his violence shall come down upon his own pate. Pro 26:27 Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein; And he that rolleth a stone, it shall return upon him. Pro 28:10 Whoso causeth the upright to go astray in an evil way, He shall fall himself into his own pit; But the perfect shall inherit good. Mat 7:1-3 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured unto you. Gal 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Psa 37:14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, To cast down the poor and needy, To slay such as are upright in the way. 15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, And their bows shall be broken.
Dan 6:16 Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. Now the king spake and said unto Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will deliver thee. 17 And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel. 18 Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were instruments of music brought before him: and his sleep fled from him. 19 Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste unto the den of lions. 20 And when he came near unto the den to Daniel, he cried with a lamentable voice; the king spake and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, is thy God, whom thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions? 21 Then said Daniel unto the king, O king, live for ever. 22 My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt. 23 Then was the king exceeding glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he had trusted in his God. 24 And the king commanded, and they brought those men that had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and brake all their bones in pieces, before they came to the bottom of the den. 25 Then king Darius wrote unto all the peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied unto you. 26 I make a decree, that in all the dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel; for he is the living God, and stedfast for ever, And his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed; and his dominion shall be even unto the end. 27 He delivereth and rescueth, and he worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.
Pro.6:12 A worthless person, a man of iniquity , Is he that walketh with a perverse mouth; 13 That winketh with his eyes, that speaketh with his feet, That maketh signs with his fingers ; 14 In whose heart is perverseness, Who deviseth evil continually, Who soweth discord . 15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; On a sudden shall he be broken, and that without remedy. 16 There are six things which Jehovah hateth; Yea, seven which are an abominationunto him: 17 Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood ; 18 A heart that deviseth wicked purposes, Feet that are swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness that uttereth lies, And he that soweth discord among brethren.
Isa 30:9-14 For it is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of Jehovah; 10 that say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits, 11 get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us. 12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rely thereon; 13 therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall whose breaking cometh suddenly in an instant. 14 And he shall break it as a potters vessel is broken, breaking it in pieces without sparing; so that there shall not be found among the pieces thereof a sherd wherewith to take fire from the hearth, or to dip up water out of the cistern.
James 3:13 Who is wise and understanding among you? let him show by his good life his works in meekness of wisdom. 14 But if ye have bitter jealousy and faction in your heart, glory not and lie not against the truth. 15 This wisdom is not a wisdom that cometh down from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. 16 For where jealousy and faction are, there is confusion and every vile deed. 17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without variance, without hypocrisy. 18 the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace for them that make peace.
(2 Peter 2:9 the Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment unto the day of judgment;)
Jer 36:1-4 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying, 2 Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day. 3 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin. 4 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a bookb &.. 21 So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll; and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes that stood beside the king. 22 Now the king was sitting in the winter-house in the ninth month: and there was a fire in the brazier burning before him. 23 And it came to pass, when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, that the king cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier. And they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants that heard all these words. 25 Moreover Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll; but he would not hear them. 26 And the king commanded Jerahmeel the king's son, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but Jehovah hid them. 27 Then the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying, 28 Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.
Jer 36:27-31 Then the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying, 28 Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned. 29 And concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah thou shalt say, Thus saith Jehovah: Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from thence man and beast? 30 Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David ; and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost. 31 And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they hearkened not. 32 Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and there were added besides unto them many like words.
Deu 9:10-17 And Jehovah delivered unto me the two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them was written according to all the words, which Jehovah spake with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly. 11 And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that Jehovah gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant. 12 And Jehovah said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from hence; for thy people that thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a molten image. 13 Furthermore Jehovah spake unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people: 14 let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven; and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they. 15 So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount was burning with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands. 16 And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against Jehovah your God; ye had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which Jehovah had commanded you. 17 And I took hold of the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and brake them before your eyes.
1Ki 8:5-11 And king Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled unto him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be counted nor numbered for multitude. 6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim. 7 For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the staves thereof above. 8 And the staves were so long that the ends of the staves were seen from the holy place before the oracle; but they were not seen without: and there they are unto this day. 9 There was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone which Moses put there at Horeb , when Jehovah made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt. 10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of Jehovah, 11 so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud; for the glory of Jehovah filled the house of Jehovah.
Isa 28:16-22 therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner-stone of sure foundation: he that believeth shall not be in haste. 17 And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. 18 And your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. 19 As often as it passeth though, it shall take you; for morning by morning shall it pass through, by day and by night: and it shall be nought but terror to understand the message. 20 For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it; and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it. 21 For Jehovah will rise up as in mount Perazim, he will be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon; that he may do his work, his strange work, and bring to pass his act, his strange act. 22 Now therefore be ye not scoffers, lest your bonds be made strong; for a decree of destruction have I heard from the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, upon the whole earth.
Psa 118:22-29 The stone which the builders rejected Is become the head of the corner. 23 This is Jehovah's doing; It is marvellous in our eyes. 24 This is the day which Jehovah hath made; We will rejoice and be glad in it. 25 Save now, we beseech thee, O Jehovah: O Jehovah, we beseech thee, send now prosperity. 26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Jehovah: We have blessed you out of the house of Jehovah. 27 Jehovah is God, and he hath given us light: Bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar. 28 Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto thee: Thou art my God, I will exalt thee. 29 Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
Psa 112: 7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: His heart is fixed, trusting in Jehovah. 8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, Until he see his desire upon his adversaries. 9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the needy; His righteousness endureth for ever: His horn shall be exalted with honor. 10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: The desire of the wicked shall perish.

“You may study sitting in meditation, but meditation is not concerned with sitting or lying down. You may study sitting in Buddha, but Buddha is not concerned with any fixed form. Of all abodeless dharmas, the Buddha is not to be chosen. If you sit in Buddha you will kill the Buddha; if you cling to the form of sitting, you will not reach the principle.” (Zen teacher Huai Jang, as recorded in the “Transmission of the Lamp)
What is true about meditation? What is true about anything?
Zen teaches, the text teaches, that we cannot make an object of truth or God. What is ultimately true about any situation is impermanence, impermanence that cannot be captured as an existent thing, a form, a particular idea. As soon as we have fixated a particular thing and say, “This is it! This is true!” we make a mistake; a mistake because object fixation is always from the standpoint of a separate self, always from a self-affirming point of view. Even Buddhism, even Buddha, regarded as object, as something to be attained or acquired, is mistaken.
All teachings, all doctrine, even the US Constitution, are like this. Objectified as truth, they become a pretext for abuse. Preoccupation with some “fixed form” is not only self-absorbed; it is also unjust; unjust because it is blind to failure, our own, and those who are most vulnerable.
These are struggles that we return to again and again. We return to our self-centeredness again and again. And so we speak of diligence, the diligence to engage in practice, again and again, to face our struggles and learn from them.
Learning starts with something we want, a skill or accomplishment we want to acquire. We begin with a goal in mind. But it turns out, that, in order to get there, we have to practice, and practice involves both success and failure, over and over again. It’s as if that thing or skill we viewed as success, as a plus, turns out to involve equal portions of failure, minus. With diligent practice, plus and minus combine and become zero, the zero of ‘just doing.’
With diligence, finally, there is ‘just doing’ called ‘mastery’ or ‘wisdom.’ What was conceived of as a goal to be acquired becomes ‘letting-go;’ letting-go of both success and failure, letting-go of the objective itself that has become ‘just doing.’ By diligence, by engaging success and failure over and over again, the arc of experience (to paraphrase Martin Luther King) “bends toward justice,” bends towards compassion for our own failings and for those who are most vulnerable .
What was imagined from the start as something to be achieved, is instead, found inside; neither success or failure, a truth underlying all encounters of self and other. This, I suggest, is the “waking-up” we are invited to, personified as “buddha,” as God, experienced as selfless love, and the relief of suffering.

The combination of eating restrictions and alcohol use is a prevalent problem on college campuses. Some students engage in eating restrictions prior to drinking to limit their overall caloric intake or to enhance intoxication effects. To date, limited research suggests that drinking-related eating restriction behaviors are associated with additional and unique health risks relative to high-risk drinking or eating restrictions alone. As such, additional research examining this unique, risky set of behaviors is warranted. Consequently, the present study aimed to address gaps in the literature by further examining the risks associated with drinking-related eating restrictions and testing trait factors related to use of these behaviors. Specifically, the study used a baseline plus 14-day daily diary design to: (1) examine the between-subjects association between drinking-related eating restrictions and alcohol outcomes, (2) examine the between-person characteristics contributing to drinking-related eating restrictions, (3) examine the within-subjects association between drinking-related eating restrictions and same-episode alcohol outcomes, (4) test trait characteristics as moderators to the daily associations between drinking-related eating restrictions and same-episode alcohol outcomes, and (5) explore whether motivations for using drinking-related eating restriction behaviors impact same-episode alcohol outcomes. Participants were 227 (180 women) moderate drinking college students. The mean age was 20.64 (SD = 2.01) years. Participants completed a baseline questionnaire and 14 days of daily surveys. Results found between-level effects of drinking-related eating restrictions, such that typical restrictors exhibited higher alcohol outcomes than non-restrictors. Multilevel modeling found within-person effects of drinking-related eating restrictions, such that participants consumed more alcohol, were more likely to binge drink, and were more likely to experience a problem on restricting days. Lower self-control was found as an indicator of typical drinking-related eating restrictions. Self-control also moderated the daily association between drinking-related eating restrictions and binge drinking, such that individuals with low self-control were more likely to binge on days they restricted. Sex was also supported as a moderator, such that women consumed more alcohol and experienced more problems on days they restricted, whereas men did not. Despite these findings, emotion regulation and perceived weight were not supported as relevant constructs to drinking-related eating restrictions in any analyses. Further, the reported reasons for restricting did not have a significant effect on same-day alcohol outcomes. Overall, this study was the first to examine both between- and within-person effects of drinking-related eating restrictions in a daily diary design with a sample of women and men. Findings supported unique risks associated with drinking-related eating restrictions, above and beyond risks of high-quantity drinking. Self-control and sex also emerge as important constructs in understanding who uses drinking-related eating restrictions and the effect restrictions have on alcohol outcomes. Future research can further elucidate the predictors and risks associated with drinking-related eating restrictions.

English I Honors Mr. Popovich
Characters are fictional people in a story. Main characters are the focus of the readers attention The protagonist is the most important character Is involved in the main conflict May or may not be the good guy The antagonist is what opposes the protagonist A character, group, force, or an emotion May or may not be the bad guy Minor characters contribute to the readers attention They help develop the main characters They help develop the plot of the story Incidental characters fill-out the rest of the story
In direct characterization the author describes the personality of a character directly to the reader.... he was a simple, good-natured man; he was moreover a kind neighbor and an obedient, henpecked husband. from Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving Characterization is the way in which an author reveals the personality traits of a character.
In indirect characterization the author reveals the personality of characters indirectly through their… physical appearance words/dialogue thoughts/feelings actions/behavior effects on others
The way in which an author describes a characters appearance physical features, clothing, and general demeanorprovides an insight into the personality of that character. (After his twenty-year nap) The appearance of Rip, with his long grizzled beard, his rusty fowling piece, his uncouth dress,... soon attracted the attention of the tavern politicians. from Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving
The dialogue can also reveal a lot about a character. Pay attention not only to what a character says but also to how he says it. (Entering the village after his twenty-year nap) God knows, exclaimed [Rip]..., Im not myself.Im somebody elsethats me yondernothats somebody else got into my shoesI was myself last night; but I fell asleep on the mountainand theyve changed my gunand everythings changedand Im changedand I cant tell whats my name, or who I am! from Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving
Similarly a characters private thoughts can reveal what he thinks, feels, wants, or fears. (Rip learns that friends have since passed away) Rips heart died away, at hearing of these sad changes in his home and his friends, and finding himself thus alone in the world... he had no courage to ask after any more friends, but cried out in despair, Does nobody here know Rip Van Winkle? from Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving
A characters actionswhat he does and how he does italso tell a great deal about his personality. He assisted at their sports, made their playthings, taught them to fly kites and shoot marbles, and told them long stories.... from Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving
The effect a character has on other characters also helps readers understand his personality. The children of the village... would shout with joy whenever he approached.... Whenever he went dodging about the village he was surrounded by a troop of them... and not a dog would bark at him throughout the neighborhood. from Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving
are well-rounded, just like most real people are complex personalities, just like most real people have more than one personality trait Most main characters are called round because their characterization reveals that they…
are NOT well-rounded can be described easily are simple characters with very few personality traits Most minor characters are called flat because their characterization reveals that they…
Stock characters are so flat they are stereotypes. They fit readers preconceived ideas about types, such as a mad scientist or a nagging wife They seriously lack the complexity of a real person [Rips] wife kept continually dinning in his ears about his idleness, his carelessness, and the ruin he was bringing on the family. Morning, noon, and night, her tongue was incessantly going.... from Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving
Dynamic characters change or grow as a result of the development of the storys action. Most dynamic characters are main characters. They can gain a new understanding, make an important decision, or take a crucial action.
Static characters are usually exactly the same as the story ends as they were when it began. They DO NOT change or grow as a result of the development of the plot of the story. Nonetheless, they support the plot without distracting the reader from the main action involving the protagonists change/growth. They are almost always minor or incidental.
Writers can make characters believable by revealing what motivates them to act as they do. A characters motivation… explains why he or she acts, feels, and/or thinks must usually be inferred from the clues of the story is based on his or her needs or conflicts
1. Explain the relationship between the protagonist and antagonist. The protagonist is the main character. The antagonist is the force opposing the protagonist. The conflict is the struggle between them. 2. Explain the difference between direct and indirect characterization. Direct characterization is when the author explicitly describes the character. Indirect characterization is when the reader must infer. 3. List five ways an author can reveal character indirectly. Appearance, Dialogue, Thoughts, Actions, Effects 4. Explain the difference between round and flat characters. Round characters are main characters who are well-rounded and have complex personalities. Flat characters are minor and simple characters. 5. Explain the difference between dynamic and static characters. Dynamic characters change or grow; Static characters do not.


"This is that which belongs to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to wait on the service in the work of the Tent of Meeting;
and from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting on the work, and shall serve no more,
the LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
Moses answered them, "Wait, that I may hear what the LORD will command concerning you."
But the man who is clean, and is not on a journey, and fails to keep the Passover, that soul shall be cut off from his people. Because he didn't offer the offering of the LORD in its appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.
On the day that the tabernacle was raised up, the cloud covered the tabernacle, even the Tent of the Testimony: and at evening it was over the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until morning.
So it was continually. The cloud covered it, and the appearance of fire by night.
Whether it was two days, or a month, or a year that the cloud stayed on the tabernacle, remaining on it, the children of Israel remained encamped, and didn't travel; but when it was taken up, they traveled.
It happened in the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, that the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle of the testimony.
The Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary. The others set up the tabernacle before they arrived.
The standard of the camp of the children of Dan, which was the rear guard of all the camps, set forward according to their armies. Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai was over his army.
The people were complaining in the ears of the LORD. When the LORD heard it, his anger was kindled; and the LORD's fire burnt among them, and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp.
The manna was like coriander seed, and its appearance like the appearance of bdellium.
Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent; and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; and Moses was displeased.
I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit which is on you, and will put it on them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you not bear it yourself alone.
"Say to the people, 'Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow, and you will eat flesh; for you have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, "Who will give us flesh to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt." Therefore the LORD will give you flesh, and you will eat.
A wind from the LORD went out and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day's journey on this side, and a day's journey on the other side, around the camp, and about two cubits above the surface of the earth.
They said, "Has the LORD indeed spoken only with Moses? Hasn't he spoken also with us?" And the LORD heard it.
Now the man Moses was very humble, above all the men who were on the surface of the earth.
He said, "Hear now my words. If there is a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known to him in a vision. I will speak with him in a dream.
They went up by the South, and came to Hebron; and Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
Only don't rebel against the LORD, neither fear the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defense is removed from over them, and the LORD is with us. Don't fear them."
But all the congregation threatened to stone them with stones. The glory of the LORD appeared in the Tent of Meeting to all the children of Israel.
Moses said to the LORD, "Then the Egyptians will hear it; for you brought up this people in your might from among them;
and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that you the LORD are in the midst of this people; for you the LORD are seen face to face, and your cloud stands over them, and you go before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.
Now if you killed this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of you will speak, saying,
'the LORD is slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, forgiving iniquity and disobedience; and that will by no means clear [the guilty], visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and on the fourth generation.'
but in very deed, as I live, and as all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD;
"How long [shall I bear] with this evil congregation, that murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
Tell them, 'As I live, says the LORD, surely as you have spoken in my ears, so will I do to you:
your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness; and all who were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, who have murmured against me,
Your children shall be wanderers in the wilderness forty years, and shall bear your prostitution, until your dead bodies be consumed in the wilderness.
After the number of the days in which you spied out the land, even forty days, for every day a year, you will bear your iniquities, even forty years, and you will know my alienation.'
They rose up early in the morning, and went up to the top of the mountain, saying, "Behold, we are here, and will go up to the place which the LORD has promised: for we have sinned."
"'If one person sins unwittingly, then he shall offer a female goat a year old for a sin offering.
and it shall be to you for a fringe, that you may look on it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that you not follow after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you use to play the prostitute;
When Moses heard it, he fell on his face:
and he spoke to Korah and to all his company, saying, "In the morning the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to him: even him whom he shall choose he will cause to come near to him.
Moses said to Korah, "Hear now, you sons of Levi!
Is it a small thing to you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself, to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them;
and that he has brought you near, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you? and do you seek the priesthood also?
Korah assembled all the congregation against them to the door of the Tent of Meeting: and the glory of the LORD appeared to all the congregation.
and the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men who appertained to Korah, and all their goods.

Your brothers also, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, bring near with you, that they may be joined to you, and minister to you: but you and your sons with you shall be before the tent of the testimony.
They shall keep your commands, and the duty of all the Tent: only they shall not come near to the vessels of the sanctuary and to the altar, that they not die, neither they, nor you.
They shall be joined to you, and keep the responsibility of the Tent of Meeting, for all the service of the Tent: and a stranger shall not come near to you.
You and your sons with you shall keep your priesthood for everything of the altar, and for that within the veil; and you shall serve: I give you the priesthood as a service of gift: and the stranger who comes near shall be put to death."
Henceforth the children of Israel shall not come near the Tent of Meeting, lest they bear sin, and die.
But the Levites shall do the service of the Tent of Meeting, and they shall bear their iniquity: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations; and among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.
You shall bear no sin by reason of it, when you have heaved from it its best: and you shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, that you not die.'"

A Song - Poem by Robert Laurence Binyon
For Mercy, Courage, Kindness, Mirth,
There is no measure upon earth.
Nay, they wither, root and stem,
If an end be set to them.
Overbrim and overflow,
If you own heart you would know;
For the spirit born to bless
Lives but in its own excess

Six years have passed since Takino left the gangster world, but when he squares off against a punk who has caused trouble in his store, Takino feels "a strange rush of something close to happiness." The old Takino has emerged from his cage--one of several metaphorical "cages" in the novel--and he knows at once that he does not want to go back inside.

A: Excellent. I intend to read it again. B: Good. I might read it again. C: So-so. I didn't mind reading it. D: Bad. I resented reading it. F: Atrocious. I finished it only because I'm compulsive that way.

The century-long conflicts between reactionaries and liberals, the church and the free american slot machine games, and the bourgeoisie and the proletariat provided ample scope for the literary giants of the age-Hugo, Balzac, Michelet, and Zola, each endowed with a prodigious productivity. The expression is imprecise, and was frequently used disparagingly to characterize authors whose chosen subject matter was taken from the working classes and who portrayed the misery and harsh conditions of real life. He conceived Madame Bovary in a thoroughly realistic fashion and accomplished his task in strenuous obedience to a theory which was to become the dogma of Naturalism a generation later. Literature and the Arts. The title of 19th-century French literature. A Literary Tour of the United States.

Battle of Changsha (2014) - 戰長沙
Battle of Changsha retells the turbulent events of the second Sino-Japanese war through the perspective of the Hu family, particularly through the eyes of a 16 year old girl named Xiang Xiang and her twin brother, Xiao Man.
Gu Qing Ming, is a strict Intelligence Officer in the Nationalist Army from a prominent political family. The feisty fun-loving Xiang Xiang and the arrogant Gu Qing Ming start off on bad terms, however their romance blossoms as they constantly bump into each other. ~~ Based on the novel by the same name by Que Que.


Epithelial ovarian cancer may be the leading cause of death among female genital malignancies. pleural effusions by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR and western blot. The authors reported positive Snail manifestation in the majority of the analysed tumour specimens. Snail mRNA manifestation was recognized in 93% (38/41) main tumours, 93% (14/15) Pimaricin tyrosianse inhibitor metastases, and 87% (68/78) effusions. Snail protein manifestation determined by Western blot analysis was found in 100% (30/30) main tumours, 100% (10/10) metastases, and 97% (72/74) effusions. The authors found that mean manifestation levels of Snail protein were reduced effusions, with manifestation of 17% of control levels in effusions compared to 118% in main tumours and 127% in metastases (Elloul (2006) found that Snail protein was specifically localised in the cytoplasm, which may reflect an inactive form of the protein (Dominguez and p21-activated kinase-1, are known to govern Snail’s localisation (Dominguez (2006) in endometrial and colon cancer, respectively. This raises the relevant question whether these Snail-positive stromal cells represent former tumour cells which have undergone mesenchymal transition. Alternatively, a expression of Snail in tumoral stroma may suggest an integral function for stromal cells to advertise tumour development. The function of Snail in tumour-associated stromal cells must be set up in additional research. We found a substantial relationship between Snail appearance in principal ovarian tumours and their matching metastases ( em P /em 0.001). Situations (94.1%) using a positive Snail immunoreactivity in principal tumours had been also Snail positive in the corresponding metastases. Alternatively, 70% of situations with Snail-negative principal tumours had been also Snail detrimental in the matching metastases, however 30% showed an optimistic Snail immunoreactivity. In prior studies, it had been proven that Snail not merely induces tumour invasion but also blocks the cell routine and confers level of resistance to cell loss of life (Vega em et al /em , 2004). Our outcomes indicate these or various other, yet unknown, top features of Snail may be of particular importance for the establishment or maintenance of metastases at the brand new invasion site in Sermorelin Aceta ovarian cancers, resulting in conserved Snail expression possibly. Additionally, we showed that positive Snail immunoreactivity in metastases of ovarian cancers was considerably associated with a lesser general survival from the sufferers. Simply no association was discovered between Snail expression in primary ovarian success and cancers. There is no relationship between Snail immunoreactivity and various other clinicopathological variables, including patient age group, tumour subtype, or quality of differentiation. The final might end up being because of the little amounts of low-grade and low-stage situations as talked about above. In the current study, there was no correlation between Snail upregulation and E-cadherin downregulation, neither in main tumours nor in related metastases. We found coexpression of E-cadherin and Snail in 36.1% of primary tumours and in 53.8% of metastases. These results are in accordance with previous studies on endometrial and colon cancer (Franci em et al /em , 2006; Blechschmidt em Pimaricin tyrosianse inhibitor et al /em , 2007), although it is not yet recognized why Snail manifestation does not lead to E-cadherin downregulation in these cases. We also asked whether specific mixtures of E-cadherin and Snail protein manifestation experienced a prognostic value. We found that a profile of reduced E-cadherin manifestation and nuclear Snail manifestation was associated with a significantly increased risk of death. Patients showing an E-cadherin reduced and Snail positive’ profile, in either the primary Pimaricin tyrosianse inhibitor tumours or related metastases, respectively, experienced a 6-collapse and 4.2-fold increased risk of death ( em P /em =0.002 and 0.022, respectively) when compared to the patient group with a normal epithelial’ manifestation profile of E-cadherin positive and Snail negative’. Additionally, individuals having a profile Pimaricin tyrosianse inhibitor of maintained E-cadherin and positive Snail manifestation in metastases were at an increased risk of death ( em P /em =0.077), although this association was not statistically significant. Taken together, these observations show that Snail might be an independent prognostic element for medical end result in ovarian malignancy. Snail may be important for the establishment and maintenance of metastases in ovarian cancer, while loss of E-cadherin expression might be crucial in primary tumours, for example, for tumour invasion, both leading to an adverse clinical outcome for ovarian cancer patients. This is the 1st study where the subcellular expression of the E-cadherin repressor Snail has been analysed in a series of ovarian carcinomas. Our findings, although derived from a limited number of patients, form an important basis for future prospective studies. In conclusion, the results of our study show that Snail is associated with lower overall survival of ovarian cancer patients and provide new evidence for a role of Snail as a prognostic factor for adverse clinical outcome in ovarian cancer. Acknowledgments This study was supported in part by a grant from the Deutsche Krebshilfe to K-F.


I often have a pile of books that I am reading. Not usually a pile of novels. Those I read through in just a sitting or two. But “thought” books (non-fiction, often theological but sometimes not…) take a bit more time and I often have to stop and find a notebook and pen so I can write down quotes or just take a few notes.
This morning I finished a couple of them and felt inspired to write down a few thoughts on each. So, I’m going to just start at the top of the pile and work my way down! Here are the first two:
Crazy Love by Francis Chan
I have to tell you, I’ve wanted to read this book for quite some time. However, after reading a review of Rob Bell’s Love Wins, I was a bit apprehensive. For some reason, both these pastors have been in the same compartment in my mind.
They shouldn’t have been.
Crazy Love is one of the best books on God/the church that I’ve read in a long, long time.
“We need to stop giving people excuses to not believe in God. You’ve probably heard the expression ‘I believe in God, just not organized religion.’ I don’t think that people would say that if the church truly lived like we are called to live. The expression would change to ‘I can’t deny what the church does but I don’t believe in their God.’ ’At least then they’d address their rejection of God rather than use the church as a scapegoat.”
And that, friends, was just the forward.
This book is written in a “new generation” format- there are websites listed to look things up, directions to stop reading the book and go watch youtube videos, and reference to building projects that hit the $20 million dollar mark.
Still, even “old-school” people such as myself who don’t own TV’s, go to the library for internet access and try to keep all building projects under three thousand dollars, can enjoy and embrace the message given.
Chan takes the first three chapters to lay a foundation about God. To begin with, stop praying/talking and start thinking/listening about who God is. Do you actually know?
Steeped in Scripture and quotes from giants of the faith like A.W. Tozer, Crazy Love seeks to put a fire under the church to start living dangerously.
At the same time, on a personal level, it strives to open our eyes to the relentless love of our Creator. To free those who are bound by the chains of “perfection” (what we think we need) then “guilt” (what we get when we fail) and spin them around to face a God who is passionately in love with them.
Healing Sands by Nancy Rue & Stephen Arterburn
Actually, yes, this is a novel. However, I think it worthy of mentioning. I’m pretty much in love with Nancy Rue. Her writing is clear and concise, making it read like your watching a movie. I’m not that good of a writer, nor will I probably ever be, but I can fully appreciate it!
Healing Sands is the third in the Sullivan Crisp novels. (Healing Stones and Healing Waters precede it) I wasn’t crazy about Healing Waters but that had to do with the story-line, not the writing.
Just a little background: Sullivan Crisp is a psychologist who uses different (as in, not the norm) methods to reach his clients. An on-going behind the scenes story about him stretches through all three novels.
Healing Sands tells the story of Ryan, a focused, driven photographer who comes home after six-months in Africa on assignment to find her ex-husband with a new girlfriend and her two sons uninterested in reviving their relationship with her.
When she goes on assignment to take photographs of a murder and sees her oldest son through the view-finder of her camera- all of life screeches to a halt.
On her quest to prove her son’s innocence, she comes face to face with some of her own faults, the number one being her out-of-control anger.
Despite the fact that this novel, like many, uses outlandish circumstances (although all possible) to magnify emotional responses, the underlying journey toward surrender is something that every one of us has to face in our day to day lives.
In the end, this book’s finest quality is its sense of reality. The people involved face real situations with real emotions and real decisions that you and I might make are the outcome. All liberally sprinkled with the reminder that God is working on a bigger picture: our hearts.

A further study revealed that probucol strongly impaired the phosphorylation of IB and the nuclear translocation of NF-B (p65). It also suppressed the activation of ERK/JNK/p38 MAPK signaling. Moreover, the NF-B inhibitor (PDTC), the ERK inhibitor (PD98059), the JNK inhibitor (SP600125), and the p38 MAPK inhibitor (SB203580) markedly attenuated the growth of these cells. Our results indicate that probucol induces anti-proliferative effects blocking of cell cycle progression and inactivation of NF-B and MAPK pathways in human ovarian cancer cells. Introduction Probucol is a diphenolic compound with anti-hyperlipidemic, anti-oxidative, anti-diabetic, and anti-inflammatory properties that reduces tissue injury and histopathological changes.1C6 CPI-613 irreversible inhibition It includes a extended history of clinical application with founded safety and efficacy information.2,3 Earlier research possess proven that probucol offers diverse pharmacological properties with therapeutic results on metabolic and cardiovascular diseases.4C8 Additionally, it may modulate the toxicity-promoting impact and can provide as a potent chemopreventive agent to reduce oxidant induced cells injury.2,4,8 Therefore, probucol is meant to be a fantastic agent in improving endogenous antioxidant reserve and avoiding augmented oxidative pressure.1C4 Ovarian tumor may be the deadliest of most gynecologic malignancies in lots of countries.9C11 Because this disease is asymptomatic or non-specific at the early stage of its progression, nearly all ovarian carcinoma individuals are identified as having advanced stage disease.10C12 For the treatment of ovarian carcinoma, cytoreductive combination and surgery chemotherapies are regular strategies.13C16 However, tumor relapse as well as the development of SIRPB1 drug-resistant disease remain a knotty issue to become resolved in ovarian carcinoma treatment. It really is well documented that oxidative tension modulates cell development or genomic balance under both pathophysiological and physiological circumstances. 17C19 Latest molecular and pathological proof shows that in intensifying phases of ovarian carcinoma, the oxidative stress can contribute to the uncontrolled tumor expansion.18,19 Antioxidants, when added adjunctively, to first-line chemotherapy, may improve the efficacy of cancer therapy.19,20 More recent data showed that probucol was a potent antioxidant that can CPI-613 irreversible inhibition CPI-613 irreversible inhibition serve as a powerful chemopreventive agent to suppress oxidant induced tissue injury and carcinogenesis, in addition to being a cholesterol reducing and anti-atherogenic drug.21C23 Probucol exposure modulated iron nitrilotriacetate-dependent renal carcinogenesis and the hyperproliferative response.23 It can induce anti-angiogenesis and apoptosis in athymic nude mouse xenografted human head and neck squamous carcinoma cells.24 On the other hand, probucol was able to activate NAD(P)H:quinone reductase, one of the main detoxifying enzymes, and CPI-613 irreversible inhibition could then reduce chemical carcinogenesis and toxicity.25 The nanoassembly of probucol enabled novel therapeutic efficacy in the suppression of lung metastasis of breast cancer.26 Nevertheless, its potential effect on the progression of ovarian cancer is not explored yet. It’s been reported how the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-B) takes on an important part in the mobile redox system in a variety of cells.27C29 In unstimulated cells, the NF-B p50/p65 heterodimer is maintained in the cytoplasm by binding to IB. Upon excitement, NF-B dissociates from IB, translocates towards the nucleus, activates focus on genes and regulates varied cellular features.28,29 A lot of the ramifications of NF-B activation on cancer cells have already been associated with cancer development and poor outcomes.30,31 Tumor cells have already been proven to exhibit a hyperactivated NF-B survival signaling pathway constitutively.31 Indeed, the aberrant regulation from the NF-B pathway is thought to be a significant event adding to malignant change and development of ovarian tumor.32,33 With this scholarly research, we hypothesized that probucol, maybe, is an efficient applicant for anti-ovarian tumor cells. Consequently, to examine this hypothesis, we looked into the inhibitory ramifications of probucol on cell proliferation in human being ovarian tumor PA-1 and SKOV-3 cells and its own underlying molecular system for probucol-mediated cell routine development and NF-B signaling. We also determined signaling molecules root probucol-modulated cell development in both cell lines. Finally, our research displayed the part of probucol in ovarian carcinoma chemoprevention or chemotherapy.

Hayden Wolf is a successful businessman facing an adversary intent on bringing his company down. Not knowing who he can trust, he decides on taking drastic measures to keep his work under the utmost secrecy…
Avery Walker is the chief stewardess working on a luxury yacht. When their latest guest arrives, he is a complete contradiction from what she has come to expect in her line of work. He is also the only guest who has ever so much as tempted her to break the no messing around with the guests rule.
With a lot on the line in their lives, both Hayden and Avery should steer clear of each other and any romantic entanglements a fling between them would cause. But, what they should do isn’t always what they can’t resist doing…
This book was a glimpse into the lives of the rich, yachting elite… and the people who are employed to cater to their every whim. The beautiful destinations and the incredible yacht backdrop set the pace for a love story between two people who are on opposite ends of the hierarchy.
Avery is a dedicated daughter and sister, whose job as a chief stewardess affords her to help her family financially. She is trustworthy, impeccable in her work and selfless to a fault. The yachting lifestyle is one full of people who are rich and entitled, and she has come to expect every crazy thing they could possibly ask for, and works hard to provide it.
Hayden is a workaholic who lives for making a great business deal, and they money that comes along with it. When he realizes that he may have a mole in his company, he decides to cut himself off from all traditional communication and work from a yacht for the next two months. Avery is a complete surprise, and someone who has tempted him like no one ever has before. Not only is he impossibly attracted to her, but he comes to admire her for the strong woman she is.
The whirlwind relationship between Avery and Hayden feels like it is meant to be, but their lives couldn’t be any more different, and the real world has a way of crashing in on a gigantic wave…
I received a complimentary copy of this book for my honest and unbiased review.

Forests in the Ozark Highlands underwent widespread oak decline affected by severe droughts in 1999-2000. In this study, the differential normalized difference water index was calculated to detect crown dieback. A multi-factor risk rating system was built to map risk levels of stands. As a quick response to drought, decline in 2000 mostly occurred in stands at low to medium risk, which often recovered within a few years. Decline in 2003, as longer-term response to drought, dominated in stands at medium to high risk. This study demonstrates that remote sensing can be applied to predict oak decline and to mitigate damage before another stressor event occurs.

Reviews of : The Shallows by Nicholas Carr PDF Book
Inside this Book – In 1964, just as the Beatles were launching their invasion of America’s airwaves, Marshall McLuhan published Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man and transformed himself from an obscure academic into a star. Oracular, gnomic, and mind-bending, the book was a perfect product of the sixties, that now-distant decade of acid trips and moon shots, inner and outer voyaging. Understanding Media was at heart a prophecy, and what it prophesied was the dissolution of the linear mind. McLuhan declared that the “electric media” of the twentieth century—telephone, radio, movies, television—were breaking the tyranny of text over our thoughts and senses. Our isolated, fragmented selves, locked for centuries in the private reading of printed pages, were becoming whole again, merging into the global equivalent of a tribal village. We were approaching “the technological simulation of consciousness, when the creative process of knowing will be collectively and corporately extended to the whole of human society.
Inside this book –The Shallows PDF Book by Nicholas Carr – Dave, stop. Stop, will you? Stop, Dave. Will you stop?” So the supercomputer HAL pleads with the implacable astronaut Dave Bowman in a famous and weirdly poignant scene toward the end of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Bowman, having nearly been sent to a deep-space death by the malfunctioning machine, is calmly, coldly disconnecting the memory circuits that control its artificial brain. “Dave, my mind is going,” HAL says, forlornly. “I can feel it. I can feel it.” I can feel it too. Over the last few years I’ve had an uncomfortable sense that someone, or something, has been tinkering with my brain, remapping the neural circuitry, reprogramming the memory. My mind isn’t going—so far as I can tell—but it’s changing. I’m not thinking the way I used to think. I feel it most strongly when I’m reading. I used to find it easy to immerse myself in a book or a lengthy article. My mind would get caught up in the twists of the narrative or the turns of the argument, and I’d spend hours strolling through long stretches of prose. That’s rarely the case anymore. Now my concentration starts to drift after a page or two. I get fidgety, lose the thread, begin looking for something else to do. I feel like I’m always dragging my wayward brain back to the text. The deep reading that used to come naturally has become a struggle. I think I know what’s going on. For well over a decade now, I’ve been spending a lot of time online, searching and surfing and sometimes adding to the great databases of the Internet. The Web’s been a godsend to me as a writer. Research that once required days in the stacks or periodical rooms of libraries can now be done in minutes. A few Google searches, some quick clicks on hyperlinks, and I’ve got the telltale fact or the pithy quote I was after. I couldn’t begin to tally the hours or the gallons of gasoline the Net has saved me. I do most of my banking and a lot of my shopping online. I use my browser to pay my bills, schedule my appointments, book flights and hotel rooms, renew my driver’s license, send invitations and greeting cards. Even when I’m not working, I’m as likely as not to be foraging in the Web’s data thickets—reading and writing e-mails, scanning headlines and blog posts, following Facebook updates, watching video streams, downloading music, or just tripping lightly from link to link to link.
