1 Corinthians 3:18-23
18Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. 19For the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written, “He catches the wise in their craftiness,” 20and again, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.” 21So let no one boast of men. For all things are yours, 22whether Paul or Apol’los or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future, all are yours; 23and you are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.
Psalms 24:1-6
1The earth is the LORD’s and the fulness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein; 2for he has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the rivers. 3Who shall ascend the hill of the LORD? And who shall stand in his holy place? 4He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false, and does not swear deceitfully. 5He will receive blessing from the LORD, and vindication from the God of his salvation. 6Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob. [Selah]
Luke 5:1-11
1While the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the lake of Gennes’aret. 2And he saw two boats by the lake; but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets. 3Getting into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people from the boat. 4And when he had ceased speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” 5And Simon answered, “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.” 6And when they had done this, they enclosed a great shoal of fish; and as their nets were breaking, 7they beckoned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. 8But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord.” 9For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the catch of fish which they had taken; 10and so also were James and John, sons of Zeb’edee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; henceforth you will be catching men.” 11And when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed him.

Hey, I’ve been dealing with WP since 2007 or 2008ish. I get the ins and outs. Please be patient with those who haven’t. Playing with the beast is not always fun.

Thank you, De Pat, for a fabulous Friday thread!
I hope that your commitments are sorting out well.
Seems like only yesterday that Thor was flying a Sopwith Camel.
It was!!! I was fooled by the cocktail.
That’s why I kept going on about the Monday polar bear and the Wednesday camel. I don’t have that good a grasp on what day it is.
CV doesn’t seem the type to include a cocktail on her Friday posts….
Consider putting a calendar widget on your desktop.
Who am I going to trust, a calendar widget, or a bonfire and a cocktail?
Trust a giraffe with a harmonica.
I can’t believe you didn’t know that.
My natural inclination might be to do so, but only on blue or orange days….
That’s a good start toward deeper comprehension.
“I don’t have that good a grasp on what day it is.”
___________
Eh, who does?
Indeed — look outside, sun is shining, is it Wednesday or Thursday or what? No polar bears, camels, giraffes or harmonicas. How much do I care?
Look at the Astronomical Julian Day counter, it is divisible by 7 on Mondays… but sometimes it is just as well as to let all that be. Yet, like that Irishman who said, he knows he has the right to remain silent, but is lacking the ability…
The AJD starting at noon today, 2024-09-05, is 2460559. Dividing this by 7 gives a remainder of 3, so it must be Thursday.
Very interesting!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_day
Yep, that’s something Julius Scaliger came up with.
Not to be confused with the other “Julian Day” which is just the number of the day within the year (1-365 or 366).
There’s also a modified Julian day where they subtracted 2,400,000.5 from the Julian day, so it starts at midnight. The old DEC Vax computers used this for their system clocks.
KRAZY KAM-KOM!!!
Trump is right. He’s at the mercy of crazy and evil people.
Basically we ALL are……..
AMEN!!!
You go, Elon.
Bottom line truth. The moonbats have to go home.

A silent movie worth the watch
what’s the name of that movie ? thanks.
looks like Nosferatu
It’s Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror
ah, right !
I have it on blu-ray, but haven’t made time to watch it yet. It’s rated 8.3 out of 10 by site users at bluray.com, and 4.5 out of 5 by the reviewer.
Directed by F.W. Murnau in 1922. He also directed The Last Laugh (1924, rated 8.1), Faust (1926, rated 7.9), Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927, rated 8.5) and City Girl (1930, rated 7.8), among others.
Nosferatu has Max Schreck in the lead role:
https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Nosferatu-Blu-ray/82331/
.
“Nosferatu was restored by Luciano Berriatúa on behalf of Friedrich-Wilhelm-Murnau-Stiftung, Weisbaden in 2005/06. A tinted nitrate print with French intertitles from 1922 from the Cinémathèque Française, Paris, was used as a basis for the restoration.
Missing shots were completed by a safety print from 1939 from Bundesarchiv-Filmarchiv, Berlin/Koblenz, drawn from a Czech export print from the 1920s. Other shots were taken from a nitrate print of the 1930 version, distributed under the title Die Zwölfte Stunde (The Twelfth Hour), preserved at the Cinémathèque Française, Paris.
Most of the original intertitles and inserts are preserved in a safety print from 1962 from Bundesarchiv-Filmarchiv, Berlin/Koblenz, originating in a print from 1922. Missing intertitles and inserts were redesigned on the basis of the original typography by trickWilk, Berlin. They are marked with F.W.M.S.
The lab work was carried out by L’Immagine Ritrovata, Bologna.”
Casey Broadwater (reviewer): “This is quite simply the best Nosferatu has ever looked on home video. As a film in the public domain, it’s seen numerous releases by less-than- reputable distributors using thrice-duped, badly tinted, and poorly mastered prints.
Kino-Lorber has aimed for a more definitive presentation, using an original print and attempting to stay true to the film’s intended appearance. While not as immediately jaw-dropping as the recent Friedrich-Wilhelm- Murnau-Stiftung restoration of Metropolis—which was given the frame-by-frame clean-up treatment—Nosferatu is gorgeous in this new 1080p/AVC-encoded transfer.
Specks and scratches still remain throughout, but the print’s grain structure is preserved, with no signs of adverse noise reduction or edge enhancement. Detail is massively improved from previous editions—with finer textures and sharper lines all around—and both the contrast and color tinting are balanced perfectly. This edition is by far the best way to appreciate Nosferatu‘s stunning visuals.
Note: The first disc of the two-disc set features reconstructed English intertitles—using a great Art Deco typeface—while the second disc includes German intertitles, some original and others reconstructed.
Update (11/20/13): At first glance, it appeared to me as though both transfers were identical, but on closer examination—and thanks to the sharp eyes of some of the readers in our forums—it’s obvious that the German edition on the second disc is superior. It’s visibly sharper throughout, and when compared back to back, the English version is slightly but noticeably cropped. Purists will want to stick with the German version, which is comparable in quality to Masters of Cinema’s U.K. release.”

Vampyr (1932, directed by Carl Theodor Dreyer) is also supposed to be very good, rated 7.5 by the site users, and rated 4.5 out of 5 by my favorite blu-ray.com reviewer, Dr. Svet Atanasov, who may be the only conservative on the whole website.
Carl Theodor Dreyer also directed The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928, rated 8.7).
Dayum, that lad is tall!
And nicely dressed in casual attire that is a cut above jeans and a sloppy t-shirt.
It’s a good thing his dad is a billionaire, or they’d have a heck of a time keeping him in clothes that fit.
TRUE!!!
Big And Tall shopper for sure!
He is a head taller than his Dad. Supposedly Barron is 6 feet, 9 inches tall.
My post-college giant roommate was only an inch taller, IIRC.
Strange things happen around such people. For example, we were driving back to SB from his parents’ house one night in my car and he drove for a spell — but every time he relaxed, his knee turned off the headlights. We eventually decided that it was better if I drove, even if I was tired.
His own vehicle was a pickup.
My brother is at least 6’6” (That is what he will own up to, although he has to duck his head to clear a doorway.) He insisted on driving a tiny sports car. 🙄 It was like watching a those clowns folding into those tiny cars in the circus.
I had a friend who was 6′ 8 1/4″ who drove a Le Car unfathomably!
That’s just taller than the standard 6′ 8″ doorway.
What’s the bodyguard (Left photo) wearing under his shirt, 3 bulletproof vests?
Or is that a sawed off shotgun under his shirt?
Looks like he has one on the other side, too (top right photo, if that’s the same guy).

prayers up for handsome Barron with the soulful, intelligent face.

Under normal circumstances, you don’t do a 180 from the things she said in that video to supporting the person. Something is wrong. She either is in critical condition from TDS, for which she needs to be hospitalized, or Trump has something on her and she hates him for it, or somehow her father is involved, or something else. It makes no sense.

CO2: The Greatest Scientific
Scandal of Our Time
by Zbigniew Jaworowski, M.D., Ph.D., D.Sc., March 2007
Dr Jaworowski explains the sleight of hand the Climate Scammers used. It is short, easily understood and well documented.
…
Dr Segalstad debunking from years ago.
9 years ago
Here I present Climate Scientist Professor Tom Segalstad.
He presents, using isotopic data, the reasons why the observed increase in atmospheric CO2 concentrations do not have a human cause.
He explains why just 4% of atmospheric CO2 is anthropogenic.
He also shows that the supposed ‘ocean acidification’ does not really exist, and is not of human origin either.
See his published work on this subject;
Do glaciers tell a true atmospheric CO2 story?
Jaworowskia, Segalstad, Ono; 1992.
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/…
Your last paragraph…
“And like those that injected themselves with a 4th, 5th & 6th covid “booster” they will bury their heads in the sand and deny science”, is a number likely over time to diminish.
And those who survived the covid scam vaxed or unvaxed will in future be a lot less likely to believe establishment lies.

I’m astounded that vim is still getting security updates.
Today’s is two instances of use-after-free….some of this code is older than dirt, how are they still finding these?
I guess vim still has vigor.
That’s a different project — https://sourceforge.net/projects/vigor/
[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vigor_(software) Motto: “All the problems and twice the bugs.”]
Twice the bugs?
Darwin would have loved it.
I noticed that update also, even though i don’t understand I’m looking more closely now. When I saw the word vim this is what came to mind…
As used and recommended by the Hag leaves emails spotlessly clean
I first encountered UNIX in about 1981 at the University of Casual Sun-Bathing. I took to it like a duckling takes to water. My girlfriend was a Computer Science major, and I rigged her Radio Shack TRS-80 so that we could log in from our apartment. One quarter, my logged-in time was more than the system administrator’s. I taught myself tricks like ringing the bell on other users’ tty connections or reading usage stats.
In those days, there were programs like sh*, vi, and more that you used all the time and were assumed to know. Today, the modern versions are bash, vim, and less — but they still act the same way. On some more recent systems, in fact, in deference to old farts they have aliased sh to bash, vi to vim, and more to less.
There are two text editors installed on virtually every Linux system — vim and nano. Nano is more practical (vim is actually somewhat dangerous), but they keep vim around for the hard-core. The reason that vim is particularly dangerous has to do with grep by way of regular expressions…..if you type something like “:%s/. /.g”, meaning to have vi remove all spaces after periods, what you will get is:
: Command mode
% For every line
s substitute
/ for
“.” Any character (if you only want to specify periods, you need to say “\.”)
” ” and a space
/ end of what you’re substituting for
. a period
/ end of what you’re substituting to
g as many times as can happen in each line
This will instantly turn your thesis from:
The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs.
to:
Th.quic.brow.fo.jumpe.ove.th.laz.dogs.
— and in the old vi, there is no “undo” — hope you saved it first.
Mind you, when modifying program code, it can be very handy to find and fix variable names and such…..but it’s like running a power saw with no safety guards.
It’s nice that people still care and are still maintaining this, but shouldn’t all of its errors been found a couple of decades ago?
*. We actually used csh — to-may-to, to-mah-to….
There was an infamous case of a grad student who used “:%s/./. /g” on her thesis. Imagine how she felt after finding the file size had tripled and now looked like “. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . “…..
Which is why the :e! command is quite useful. Or :q! and re-start.
(the :q! means exit and don’t save the changes, which will have been the mistakes at this point. :e! means start over, discarding the changes/mistakes.)
I’m thinking you wouldn’t use my “just click it and see what happens” technique then.
That would be a “no”. Instead, you use the “make a backup, construct your command, check it twice, invoke your favorite deities, then execute” method.
Problem is the non-reversibility of changes. Most variations of vi that I’ve used through the years had at least one undo level; the exception being some really cut-down version as part of a busybox installation. If there is no way to undo, then the mistakes cannot be reverted. Hence the quit-and-start-over option.
And some care. When about to do something global (anything starting with :%) do a :w first to save all good stuff written up to that point (stuff at this point is always good for now; it may or may not be proven to be otherwise later on.)
Then the subsequent :e! done after the mistake has been discovered gets one back to something useful.
By the way, it used to be very easy to ring the bell on your buddy’s terminal — but there are now safeguards.
If you looked into /dev, you’d find a bunch of files like “tty22”. You could just use “ls -l” and see entries like “crw–w–w- 1 buddy tty 4, 22 Sep 5 01:10 tty22
“.
Then you’d edit a file to have a bunch of bell characters in it (0x07) [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#Character_set ]. When you were ready to make your buddy’s day, you’d just cat yourfile > /dev/tty22 .
The thing is, if you were willing to have your little hellions play practical jokes on each other and periodically crash the system, it was a great environment for them to learn a lot in a short amount of time.
This was running on the Computer Science Instructional Laboratory (CSIL “Cecil”) system, which was a brand-new VAX 11/780 with all the trimmings. Probably cost in excess of $1M, with a maintenance contract of $100K+ per year. Handled maybe 50 simultaneous logins.
Substantially less powerful than a modern Raspberry Pi4 at $100.
And that $100 in 2024 would be worth about 25 loaves of supermarket bread, where that $1M in 1978 would be worth about a million.
We used vi with Xenix at Microsoft in 87 and the tech writers agonized over it’s strange ways. IIRC, if you changed something downstream, it could alter earlier content formatting. A real headbanger in terms of troubleshooting a document issue. Even today, MSoft Word tables can alter formatting earlier in a table.
I cannot remember how one should pronounce vi. Vee eye? Vi (my aunt’s short name for Viola). If you say it wrong, all the programmers will scoff.
Microsoft was great back then in that they let me carry in my iMac and do my Project documents with MacWrite and MacDraw. Then, they had a production team that changed my stuff into PostScript. LOL
Curious that no-one ever noticed? Would some tool like valgrind have found it?
Yes.
The code for vim is studied by Computer Science students so they can rip parts out and use for their own projects. Thousands of people have handled the code over the years. It should be close to the most bulletproof code on the planet.

“According to Senator Josh Hawley a “whistleblower” is sharing how DHS officers were assigned to become Secret Service Agents for President Trump…. and that’s why mistakes were made.”
Scapegoating… They didn’t fall for our first patsy (Crooks) OR our second (Kimberly Cheatle), so I guess we need to serve up another patsy…
In looking to see if Cheatle had a book deal yet, I came across this:

[Information on this website is for informational and educational and entertainment purposes. 👉This website contains humor, parody, and satire.]
AND the reality: Joe Biden Orders Taxpayer-Funded Secret Service Protection For Former SS Director Kimberly Cheatle
So Fauci has a SS detail and now Cheatle. I guess they are taking Q seriously.
The thing about Real raw News…every now and then he puts out something that other “insider” people are saying, albeit from different claimed sources. There are wiki pages out there for the generals and admirals he names. He’s either truly connected or has one heck of an imagination. Stuff like the real Klaus Schwab died of adrenochrome withdrawal. Another “insider” had that, too.
“…this website is for informational and educational…”
By claiming “…This website contains humor, parody, and satire….” He protects himself while getting people to think.
….
Just a thought. A SS detail ALSO keeps track of the person… Almost like a ‘moving’ house arrest.’

On that disturbing echo of 2008-2009 mentioned above. It does indeed not look good.

Presidential Eligibility Lawsuit : Harris NOT A “Natural Born Citizen” New York Case To be Appealed To U.S. Supreme Court
article link + Pleading document…

9/3
Article II, Section 1, Clause 5, The U.S. Constitution.
Much as I appreciate this guy’s efforts to deal with the brazen efforts of the donkey party to kill the constitution, I must point out a clear error in his thinking/logic.
He asserts [ https://sibley.substack.com/p/a-court-hearing-is-set-for-august ] that Kacklema is a U.S. citizen because she was born here. This is amazing to me.
How can someone argue the meaning of ‘natural born citizen’ when that person fails to know something so basic as … there is no such thing as ‘dirt citizenship’ in the USA.
Basic citizenship in the US is one of two types – natural or naturalized.
Natural is transmitted by the parents’ DNA [one or both are U.S. citizens].
Naturalized is via the application of statutes [parents’ citizenship irrelevant].
Natural Born Citizen is a subset of Natural Citizen.
Now go forth from there arguing the meaning of NBC.
DISCUSSIONS ON THE SUBJECT:
THE POLITICAL MISREADING OF THE 14TH AMENDMENT
Anchor babies, birthright citizenship, and the 14th Amendment
[QUOTE]
…In 1866, Senator Jacob Howard clearly spelled out the intent of the 14th Amendment by writing:
The phrase “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” was intended to exclude American-born persons from automatic citizenship whose allegiance to the United States was not complete. With illegal aliens who are unlawfully in the United States, their native country has a claim of allegiance on the child. Thus, the completeness of their allegiance to the United States is impaired, which therefore precludes automatic citizenship.
The correct interpretation of the 14th Amendment is that an illegal alien mother is subject to the jurisdiction of her native country, as is her baby.
Over a century ago, the Supreme Court correctly confirmed this restricted interpretation of citizenship in the so-called ‘Slaughter-House cases’ [83 US 36 (1873)] and in [112 US 94 (1884)]. In Elk v.Wilkins, the phrase ‘subject to its jurisdiction’ excluded from its operation ‘children of ministers, consuls, and citizens of foreign states born within the United States.’ In Elk, the American Indian claimant was considered not an American citizen because the law required him to be ‘not merely subject in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to their political jurisdiction and owing them direct and immediate allegiance.’
Congress subsequently passed a special act to grant full citizenship to American Indians, who were not citizens even through they were born within the borders of the United States. The Citizens Act of 1924…

Immediately after the massive strike of the Russian Aerospace Forces on Ukraine, US Army Lieutenant Colonel Joshua Kamara died in Poland. He was 45 years old. It is reported that he died in the US Army military camp in Poznan. Kamara was awarded the Legion of Honor, the Bronze Star, and the Medal of Merit, as well as other awards.
That’s how it happens. Missiles land in Poltava, and US Army officers suddenly die somewhere in Poland. Moreover, the number of NATO officers killed after that attack of ours has already reached dozens.

The most obvious evidence of the effectiveness of the missile strike on Poltava was the swarm of NATO medical aircraft (USA, Germany, Poland, Romania). They are evacuating both wounded instructors and corpses.

Putin has once again stated that the Kremlin is not supporting Trump in the US elections.
Earlier, he said that Biden is preferable for Russia. “Biden was our favorite, but then he was removed from the race. He recommended that all his supporters support Harris, which means we will support her too.
She laughs so infectiously that it means that everything is fine with her,” Putin said.
It should be noted that the American authorities accuse the Kremlin of interfering in the American elections in order to support Trump.
Putin is rather brilliant, using selective truth as cunning propaganda.
He really is for Harris, because weakening the US is good for defending Russia, long-term. It means a painful fight now, but Putin always covers the down side, so that he wins either way.
Biden was even better for Russia – utterly incompetent, corrupt, and hurting the US military in a huge way.
Russia knows that the globalists and American Soviets won’t let a good non-commie relationship happen with Russia. The commies need to stew in their own juices just a little longer. Then, they can be removed from the oven, sniffed to make sure they’re done to perfection, and thrown out. 😉
That’s more or less what I thought also, plus I appreciate their dry sense of humor.
Yes, it’s a relief to have a bit of dry humor, perhaps difficult under circumstances.
If the Conspiracy Nutz are correct, Trump ‘gifted’ Putin BYe-Done so he could clean out the Nazis and Corrupt Deep state nest in Ukraine.
Pure copium! Even deadlier than hopium!
Yes.
That would mean that Trump swung the election and caused himself to lose on purpose.
That would mean that Trump acted unconstitutionally and unlawfully.
IMO it’s not just copium, it’s dopium. 😂
I also point out that such a theory is “Russia, Russia, Russia” on steroids, with our own side saying Trump colluded with Russia, and actually sanctioning it.
Don’t attempt to confuse them with logic.
😣
YES!!!
Russia knows that the globalists and American Soviets won’t let a good non-commie relationship happen with Russia.
… a good non-commie relationship …
Absolutely. I was beginning to despair of ever getting people on our side to understand that Russia (and Putin himself) are no longer communist. Personally, I doubt that Putin was ever a communist in his essence. He was likely a member of the Communist Party in the USSR (an act of self-preservation IMO) but I find it difficult to accept that a guy so well spoken on Russian history could really buy into the Bolshevik mindset. Plus he has publicly criticized communism. IMO the Russia Russia Russia hoax was mainly to prevent any ‘good non-commie relationship’ from developing with strong men heading up both countries.
YMMV.
Absolutely, might be my imagination but think PDJT said something like being competitors rather than enemies.
Trading partners makes a heck of a lot better sense then bomb throwing.
Also Putin’s mother was a closet Christian. Now he is OPENLY a Christian.
Good to know. I don’t think it came up before but once and then only briefly long ago.
Well this guy helps explain why hubby improved dramatically after I started feeding him 80/20 hamburger! (That is 20% fat) Hubby has always been picky about trimming the fat off his meat. Prefers white meat chicken… I am the opposite. At least he has always eaten eggs and butter.
This makes an enormous amount of sense. In particular, relative to observations I’ve been making among seniors I know and have known. Eggs appear to be brain food.
That is why eggs, milk and BEEF have been demonized.
All my favorite foods!
The worst foods for high cholesterol, given their high saturated fat content, include:
I drink my hot tea AND cold with HEAVY WHIPPING CREAM. The dentist wonders why my teeth are not stained. It is because I use CREAM in my tea. (I figured it out on my own.)
How To Neutralize Tannins In Tea
Yep! Always had milk in my coffee, so no stains.
I’ve returned to using the staple of my childhood when frying anything.
LARD.
80/20 chuck for the win every time in our home. Eggs for every breakfast. Sausage or bacon most mornings. Use butter. Eliminated added sugars, seed oils and most processed carbs. Do not eat many starches and only keto breads occasionally. Eat green veggies and berries.
Problem solved, enjoy life and feeling good again.
That really is it in a nutshell.
Verse of the Day for Thursday, September 5, 2024
✟
“Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.”
Proverbs 30:5 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.
BE MY VOICE
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
CHILD NOT CHOICE
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
HELP ME, LORD
Hear my prayer, O Lord – please hear my cry;
Hide not Thy face from me – stand closely by;
Incline Thine ear to me – answer my call;
For I am helpless in my wherewithal!
My days are consumed – in pain, I move not;
My heart beats in vain – overwhelmed, besought;
I struggle to breathe – I implore Your aid;
Begging for mercy – and yet, unafraid!
Strengthen me, Lord – as only You know how;
Send forth Thy Comforter to help me now;
Send forth the angels to hold me upright;
Help me, Lord – Help me to live, love, and fight!
The enemy plagues me both day and night;
His demons work to discourage me right;
He taunts me, haunts me, and laughs at my pain;
My prayers he sees worthless – and all in vain!
Be it Your will – with Your power and might;
Remove this affliction – far out of sight;
Defeat the devil – his power disband;
Help me, Lord – with Your Healing Hand!
You called me, Lord – in Your Service to be;
Your minister, Lord – bring people to Thee;
How can I manage – for people to care?
With this heart sorely in need of repair?
I ask not for me this healing take place;
I ask not this suffering You erase;
I ask only to stand for You, O Lord;
To bring others to You in one accord!
If in this state, You still want me to serve;
If it be Your will, my heart you preserve;
Whatever you decide – I will endure;
With You by my side – of that I am sure!
Help me, Lord to accept what You decide;
In You and with You – I long to abide;
Through You and for You – my heart is alive;
Heal me, Lord – Help me – to live, love, and thrive!

Good opener, DePat. Lots to consider and comment on. Thanks for your efforts.
As a former Armco Steel brat, now AK Steel, I can say that Japan saved its bacon long ago. However, it did not make it a better company. Steel production is a vital industry for our nation’s sovereignty. Just say no to foreign ownership. Be willing to pay a little more for a better quality product that is produced by American workers at home. Not every purchase should be judged by price alone with critical infrastructure, which exclusively low bid contracts promote. Product buyers tend to think all steel is steel as a commodity. There are quality and national security aspects to consider as well.
Along the lines of the Bee’s joke about incompetency, Chicago does not need or deserve the White Sox as a second MLB team. Nashville, TN should be their new home. A stagnant turd hole versus a vibrant city that would embrace them as Titans and Predators fans already know. Baseball is big in TN at all levels. We are filled with minor league teams including the AAA Sounds in Nashville. Amateur youth travel leagues, high schools. jucos and colleges are stocked with talent. The Vols showed the commitment and excellence with their first CWS win recently. UT is expanding and upscaling their ballpark to the tune of $100 million currently to increase their commitment. Braves, Cards, Cubs and Reds fans dominate the state. A lot of allegiances would change and rally around a home state team if it was here.
I feel for your fandom with Mizzou and the SEC TV debacle, DePat. The Tigers probably have their best team in quite some time along with a favorable schedule. I hope that gets handled soon.
Buffett’s moves sounds more BofA directed than overall banking industry. Being a Dem, he probably got word of pending criminal fentanyl probe results. “Dem” and “criminal” are synonymous and interchangeable as well know.
So much more in there, but time to get on with the day.

The end for lumber liquidators. Good riddance imo. 37 of the 200 in CA.
https://ktla.com/news/money-business/ll-flooring-closing/
After failing to find a buyer, LL Flooring, formerly Lumber Liquidators, has announced that it is shuttering its remaining 200 locations nationwide.
In an announcement Wednesday, the company said it could not secure an offer with “the necessary financing that would maximize the value of the company.” As a result, the company decided the sale of its “individual assets” would most benefit its creditors.
“It is with a heavy heart that we must let you know that we are going to begin the process of winding down LL Flooring’s business and closing all of our stores,” LL Flooring President and CEO Charles Tyson told customers in a statement, adding, “This is not the outcome that any of us had hoped for.”
The remaining 200 LL Flooring locations will begin their going-out-of-business sales on Friday. The company expects the closing sales to be held over the next 12 weeks, with closing dates varying from store to store.
LL Flooring has 37 locations in California, including stores in Los Angeles, San Diego, Santa Ana, Rancho Cucamonga, Monrovia, Murrieta, Pomona and Ventura.
“We sincerely appreciate the loyalty of our customers over the last three decades, and as webegin to wind down operations and close our stores, we are committed to doing so assmoothly as possible to minimize the impact on you, our associates and the communities weserve,” Tyson said.
Wait, where have I heard that [family] last name before???

I dont understand the purchase here. Verizon spun off fios years ago, and that became frontier. They said they only wanted to deal w phones. Now theyre buying it back but for more than they paid?
https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/verizon-buy-frontier-communications-20-billion-major-nationwide-fiber-network-expansion
Verizon Communications announced a $20 billion deal to acquire rival telecommunications operator Frontier Communications Parent Inc., the US’s largest pure-play fiber internet provider. The announcement follows a Wednesday report from The Wall Street Journal suggesting that Verizon was nearing a deal, sparking a 38% surge in Frontier’s shares in New York.
Verizon said Frontier investors will receive $38.50 per share in cash, representing a 43.7% premium to Frontier’s 90-day volume-weighted average share price on Tuesday, the last pure trading day before media reports leaked a potential acquisition of Frontier.
The Verizon and Frontier Boards of Directors have unanimously approved the transaction. Subject to approval by Frontier shareholders and regulatory approvals, the deal is expected to close in about 18 months.
“This strategic acquisition of the largest pure-play fiber internet provider in the US will significantly expand Verizon’s fiber footprint across the nation, accelerating the company’s delivery of premium mobility and broadband services to current and new customers. It will also expand Verizon’s intelligent edge network for digital innovations like AI and IoT,” Verizon wrote in a press release.
Frontier’s 2.2 million fiber subscribers across 25 states will join Verizon’s 7.4 million Fios connections in 9 states and Washington, DC. In addition to Frontier’s 7.2 million fiber locations, the company is rapidly expanding its fiber footprint with an additional 2.8 million fiber locations by the end of 2026.

Secret recording reveals Commotion at climate summit
There is a log of the failure: A secret audio recordings, SPIEGEL present the shows in detail how the climate summit in Copenhagen ended in a fiasco. The rift between EU, U.S., China and India went deeper than known – battle of words among other things, Merkel, Sarkozy and Obama are documented.
In the world climate summit in Copenhagen, it has much deeper rift between China and the EU, given than previously known. This proves a secret recording of the crucial round of talks with 25 heads of state, of the MIRROR exists and is documented in its latest issue.
The sound was created by a technical error. It dates from the afternoon of the 18th Dezember 2009 . and reveals how, especially in China and India blocked an agreement on cost reduction targets of greenhouse gases – and Chancellor Angela Merkel and duped the European Union.
Present at the central meeting were 25 including Merkel, U.S. President Barack Obama, the French president Nicolas Sarkozy, the Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh – but not the Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao. He was represented by negotiators He Yafei.
The recording can be found in, among other things, like Merkel, started up in the almost 90-minute meeting Singh. When the issue was how much of each to save the industry and the emerging markets in greenhouse gases, Merkel wanted a commitment of China and India to participate in the climate and pretend values. Since blocked the Indian Premier: “I have always said, anticipating no options.” ” Merkel on it: “But then you want nothing legally binding!” ” Singh said in a loud voice: “Why did you take in advance? That’s not fair!”
The federal government, meanwhile, reacted to the publication of the recordings. From sources said Singh was not at the time of Merkel-looking statements within the room, but a low ranking member of the Indian delegation.
Sarkozy: “must respond to this hypocrisy Man”
Merkel argued loudly in the recording, even if we assume a CO2 reduction to zero in the industrial countries, emerging economies should “reduce its own CO2 emissions” to global warming as you want to limit to two degrees. China’s negotiator He then had the Europeans accumulate abruptly. “”Thanks for all your suggestions,” he said, adding with regard to Europe’s demand to absorb the general savings target of 50 percent of greenhouse gas by 2050, Copenhagen in the final paper: “We said that we do not accept the long-term target of 50 percent. ”
Then Sarkozy reacted sharply and accused China lack of will for climate protection. ” and “with all due respect to China,” the West has committed to cut greenhouse gases 80 percent. “And in return, China, which will soon be the largest economy in the world says to the world: engagement apply to you, but not for us.” Then Sarkozy, added: “That is not acceptable!” This is about the essentials. “We must respond to this hypocrisy.”
Then Obama stepped in and tried to moderate – complained to speak but also on diplomatic affront, but with the Chinese negotiators He can be held with Prime Minister Wen, who had remained in his hotel room. “I know that here is a Chinese Premier, who is critical decisions.” ” The negotiators held before Obama: “He gives you instructions at this stage.” ”
He Yafei was unimpressed: “I am not speaking for myself, I speak on behalf of China.” Then he said: “I heard President Sarkozy to talk about hypocrisy. I avoid such concepts.” The industrialized countries have caused within a century 80 percent of all greenhouse gases and are responsible: “Run away before it does not.”
Obama: “extraordinarily important business to do yet another”
In the course of the negotiations in Copenhagen is then discussed, inter alia, Singh, Wen and the leaders of Brazil and South Africa burst into a separate round; Obama in there. At the end of the round in the concrete objectives of Europeans have been largely removed from the draft treaty. Obama was previously in the round of 25 at a distance easily walked to the European position. . There, he said the recordings that he hoped for a solution Chance “later outside this multilateral framework,” and we also need progress, because “all of us have to do other exceptionally important business.”
A formal trick was at the end of the climate summit to help end the climate summit to be not quite the disaster. . The participants agreed to the controversial Copenhagen agreement “take note” – a formal vote was not.
The paper identifies the key demand of Germany: The warming of the earth shall be limited to less than two degrees compared to pre-industrial times. . [THINK LITTLE ICE AGE!!] In addition, the industrial countries to promise formally developing grants for climate protection. . They should first ten billion dollars a year, later got up to a hundred billion dollars. . Merkel said it was unable to agree on binding emissions targets. So lacking the announcement that the emission of greenhouse gases must be halved by 2050, although this is considered a prerequisite for the two-degree target.
