NFL 2006: Baltimore Ravens

Despite a 6-10 record last year, the Baltimore Ravens and their fans have an air of confidence heading into the 2006 season. And for good reason. Head coach Brian Billick and Ozzie Newsome at headquarters have assembled a team that may be the best since the Super Bowl race in 2001.

Offense: The reason for the incredible optimism begins with the new addition at quarterback. Steve McNair is now aboard the R train after a stellar career with the Tennessee Titans. Many feel McNair is the missing piece in Baltimore’s playoff puzzle. If you stay healthy, you may be. McNair still threw for 3,161 yards and 16 touchdowns during an injury-plagued 2005 season.

Kyle Boller, a disappointment so far in his career, will be relegated to backup duties and will have a chance to learn from McNair. This could be a blessing in disguise for Boller. You can learn from one of the best and gradually regain your confidence.

Jamal Lewis had a fall as a running back last season. He failed to reach the 1,000-yard barrier (906 yards) and had just three touchdowns. Many feel that their time in jail hurt their mental conditioning and attitude. Chester Taylor left, but the Ravens grabbed Mike Anderson (1,014 yards, 12 TD) from the Broncos to provide depth and be a possible replacement if Lewis struggles again. Ovie Mughelli returns as a winger.

Derrick Mason had a great season last year, his first in Baltimore. The veteran caught 86 passes for 1,073 yards and is now reunited with McNair. The duo had their best years together in Tennessee. Mark Clayton (44-471-2) had an excellent rookie season and appears to be even better this year. Depth could be an issue. Clarence Moore, Devard Darling and rookie Demetrius Williams are untested products and one of them should emerge as number three.

Todd Heap (75-855-7) is one of the best tight ends in the game and he just keeps getting better year after year.

Jonathan Ogden anchors the offensive line for the Ravens from his left tackle position. The UCLA product is one of the top three tackles in today’s game, along with Walter Jones and Orlando Pace. Tony Pashos is on the right side, while Edwin Mulitalo and newcomer Keydrick Vincent, a free agent from Pittsburgh, are the guards. Mike Flynn returns to the center. T Adam Terry, G Brian Rimpf and rookie Chris Chester (CG) add depth.

Defense Defense continues to be the strength of the Baltimore club and appears to be even better with a healthy Ray Lewis and Ed Reed.

The defensive line is anchored by winger Terrell Suggs, the former rookie of the year. Suggs led the line with eight sacks last season. He collected 68 tackles and intercepted two passes in 2005. Jarret Johnson is a returning starter in the other finishing position, but he will have to fend off the challenge of veteran free agent Trevor Pryce. The former Denver pro had four sacks and 33 tackles last season for the Broncos.

Kelly Gregg and Justin Brannan are returning starters at defensive tackle, but their jobs are not guaranteed. Defensive tackle was a sore spot for Billick, so Oregon racing bomber Haloti Ngata was selected in the first round. He will push for a starting position right away.

Lewis had his worst season for the Ravens and will look to bounce back from an injury-filled season in which he missed 11 games. He is entering his eleventh season in the league and wants to show that the age has not reached him yet. Adalius Thomas had a great year from his outside spot, putting together a team that led nine sacks to accompany 84 tackles. Bart Scott led the team with 92 tackles playing for Lewis, but will now move overseas. Gary Stills was acquired from Kansas City for his depth.

Chris McAlister and Samari Rolle are solid corners, but there’s little else besides them. Free agent Corey Ivey (Rams) and rookie David Pittman are backups. Reed, who just signed a new six-year deal with Baltimore, is one of the best free safety in the NFL. BJ Ward is sitting at a strong safety and Dawan Landry is the best backup.

Special Teams: Mr. Consistency, Matt Stover, returns for season 16, including 11 seasons with the Ravens. Stover had another solid year: 113 points on 30-34 field goals and 23-23 on extra points. Expect the same this season. Kicker Dave Zastudil is gone and the competition is open between Leo Araguz and kicker Aaron Elling. BJ Sams is a reliable kickoff returner (22.7) and punts (12.2).

Outlook: McNair’s addition is huge for Baltimore. He is a leader who plays hurt and has a winning attitude. Those are intangibles that cannot be trained. The pieces are in place for the Ravens to make a serious run in the playoffs and maybe a spot in the Super Bowl, as long as McNair and the rest of the starters can stay healthy. The Ravens are loaded in almost every starting position, but depth is a real problem at wide receiver, defensive line and secondary. If any of the starters fail, it could be a problem.

Prediction: The Ravens play a tough division with Cincinnati and world champion Steelers. Regardless, if McNair, Lewis and Reed can stay healthy, this team has a legitimate shot at winning a division title and the Super Bowl. The Ravens will compete for the division and finish 10-6 or 11-5.

Andrew Logan an artistic adventure

Andrew Logan An Artistic Adventure is a beautifully produced art book, packed with full-page color photographs of the international life and work of Andrew Logan. (I resisted the urge to rip the photos out of the book, frame them, and hang them on my walls!). Philip Hughes, the director of The Ruthin Craft Center, the publisher of the book, wrote the brilliant trailer. The illustrious art critic Lady Marina Vaizey wrote the Introduction, and the reverential text is provided by Fennah Podschies.

Andrew Logan, who was a student at the Oxford School of Architecture in the early 1960s, deserves reverence. He is an iconoclastic artist who has been working prolifically in a wide spectrum of ‘artistic media’ including sculpture, portraiture, and jewelry since the early 1970s.

Everything is a fantasy for him. He has snatched a dream out of nowhere, his cloud-covered towers and beautiful palaces are built with everything you and I have thrown away … He should be the most revered artist who has made no distinction between his life and his art. , ‘is an apt description of the late Derek Jarman, a friend and collaborator, who once lived in a study on Andrew’s former home in Butler’s Wharf, before his building caught fire in 1979.

Over the years, Andrew has collaborated with global artists like Brian Eno, and his list of admiring patrons seems like a Who’s Who list. The late HM Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, Bono, Julie Christie, Anita Pallenberg are just some of her followers. Andrew Logan’s work has been exhibited around the world, including the American Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore, the Flower East Gallery in London, the Victoria & Art Museum, the Hayward Gallery, Bonhams, the National Portrait Gallery, Sotheby’s in London, the Royal Academy of Arts and Somerset House.

Andrew is also famous for his Miss Alternative World pageants, which he has been running since 1972.

“A surreal art event for general family entertainment” is how he describes them.

Some of the biggest names in fashion, the arts and the media have participated, either as contestants or as judges. David Hockney has been a judge on more than one occasion.

“The art of the costumes of those present and the public was wide and often amazing, and since then some have become famous and notorious,” says the chronicler of the book.

His first contest was held in one of his old London studios, a converted puzzle factory on Downham Road in Hackney in which he himself played the role of host and hostess. Since then, there have been eleven Miss Alternative World pageants, including the fourth held in a tent on Clapham Common in 1978. The late actor Divine was one of the presenters, and the judges, including Lionel Bart and Joan Bakewell, were jailed. in a cage.

“The orthodox world in which I live threatens the free spirits who on these occasions let the indignation of a million matrons tear with exuberance and joy … it is like walking through a gallery of brilliant art objects, each enjoying each one. Brightest of all – Andrew Logan: creator, magician, puppetmaster, promoter of choice, ‘recalls Bakewell.

The resulting Miss World Alternative film, directed by Richard Gayer, premiered at Odeon Leicester Square and Cannes. She was also infamous for receiving a court order from the organizers of the annual Miss World beauty pageant. The case was dismissed by the judge, Lord Denning, who said that no one was likely to confuse the two facts. The lawyer in the case was Tony Blair, who became Prime Minister of Great Britain!

The chapters of the book are dedicated to Logan’s existence as an original and eccentric artist. Alternative Miss World events are recorded with photographic details, as is her celebrity portraits of icons like Elizabeth Taylor, her close friend, Zandra Rhodes, and Maria Callas. George Melly described his unique glass jewelery, often decorated with incongruous glued objects, as “the Fabergé of the eighties.”

‘The mirror of the universe has been my life for thirty years. It has an energy like no other material. The humble grain of sand turns into glamorous glass, ”says Andrew, explaining his obsession with working with glass.

‘Andrew Logan works as a sculptor and emcee in a world of artistic adventures; in this constructed universe, like Lewis Carroll’s alternative, the unexpectedly great meets the infinitely small, and the suspension of faith is rewarded with extraordinary surprises, ”is just one of the profound quotes in the book.

At the end of the book, there are several pages dedicated to Andrew’s wide circle of fascinating friends entitled “Gods and Goddesses”, most of whom have been circling his orbit for years.

So, drool over the stunning color photographs of her one-of-a-kind jewelry and gaze at her life-size sculptures, several of which are on display in her extraordinary home, The Glasshouse Studio, designed by Michael Davis, her partner. One of Andrew’s best-known sculptures is Pegasus: A Monument to Hope (1980 with ‘subsequent interpretations and editions through 2008’). He first conceived the idea for Pegasus, which years later led to the making of this series of sculptures, when he was an 11-year-old boy. Obsessed with Greek and Roman myths, his imagination was ignited by the winged white horse that sprouted from the severed neck of the Gorgon, killed by the hero Perseus. Wings have continued to be a theme in Andrew’s work, first manifesting itself in the early broken mirror sculptures of birds. Andrew Logan has often said that during the creation process, he felt that he was “a tool, that Pegasus symbolized a bridge between the physical and spiritual dimensions, and that the winged horse and its message of hope belonged to the world.” In fact, Pegasus: A Monument of Hope was the first sculpture Andrew Logan made after the fire in the Butler’s Wharf studio. Since then, he has created a new Pegasus every decade.

Although you can still get the full impact of Andrew Logan An Artistic Adventure without reading the words, the text plays a vital role in understanding Andrew’s work and life. But it is the exquisite photographs that really help make this brilliant art book the definitive one of England’s most individual and eccentric artist. He is such a prolific creator, I am sure this interesting book will be the first of his many retrospectives to come.

Book Review – For the Life O’Reilly Written by Brian Cohen

Nicholas O’Reilly was a partner in a large New York law firm, Williams Gardner & Schmidt. He went to places with this company and had a lot of prestige even though he knew that this type of company was a ruthless company. He had many friends at the firm. Nick felt very close to a lawyer, Evan, at the firm, but there was another lawyer who was there to criticize every move Nick made, good or bad. Phil was one of those guys who loved to cause trouble with his words and deeds. Phil was slightly superior in position within the firm than Nick and he loved to enforce that fact. Evan and Nick dreamed of once having their own firm that handled many in the entertainment business as their clients. But in the meantime, forward and upward where they now worked.

At a firm meeting, Nick was selected to start a new pro-bono department of the firm. Williams Gardner & Schmidt decided that they needed more good publicity and felt that this free job for individuals or organizations who could not afford lawyers would place them very well in the public mind. However, your work for billable clients could not be affected by pro-bono clients. Nick’s first client was Dawn Nelson. Dawn was a beautiful young woman, the mother of a young son, going through a horrible time with her husband. She wanted a divorce to escape all the physical and mental beatings she was receiving from her husband, but she could not afford a lawyer. Through a local organization, Drew found Nick, even though Nick had never handled any kind of law for domestic disputes or pro-bono work. As with most firms, it was a rule that no personal contact between clients and attorneys would be allowed that could be construed as sexual or otherwise too personal. After several meetings, Nick and Dawn had very strong feelings for each other and did their best to avoid any contact that could be considered inappropriate, but things didn’t end that way.

Nick was called before the management of the firms and criticized for his conduct and for causing the Dawns case to explode and spread when it should all end and the divorce final. The legal authorities censored Nick and, of course, fired him from the firm. Nick was devastated to lose his job and the position he had worked for so long and done such good and solid work, but even though he felt he was not guilty of such actions with a client, Dawn, he could see how his time and place with her could have caused her downfall. The board granted him a two-month suspension to practice law. This caused Nick to spin in circles and spin his wheels to determine his future. The suspension gave him time to meet Dawn and her son, Jordan, who grew happier each day, and to reflect on what their future might be.

Before long, Nick got a call from Evan telling him that he had done what they had discussed years before starting his own law firm to handle his entertainment clients and expand the list. Nick was elated, but legally still couldn’t do this job, but he did everything he could to help the new company grow, and they did it quickly.

Then came the conversation about a wedding, a honeymoon, another baby, a new home, and with business growth, finances weren’t an issue. Things were going well until Nick started to feel bad. He hadn’t felt well for some time, but he blamed all his work and the problems at the old company. He continued to work hard, enjoying life, and looking forward to the wedding and their future together.

The Life O’Reilly is a story I’m glad I read. I honestly didn’t know what to expect when I started the book. I thought it would be just another lawyer story that was good, but I never expected the story Brian Cohen gave me. I felt very connected to this book. Many times we say that we had read a book that we could not put down. Trust me, The Life O’Reilly was one you won’t be able to put down until it’s done. Excellent writing style that contains a fantastic plot. Thanks Brian.

Knowing God Part 2 – Finding God within your belief

We are going to do that now, so that you can have this experience of finding God, and that God finds you in your faith believing. So when you have found God and know that God is touching you, you may have other experiences where you can simply be still in the presence of God; or when you can be full of God; you can rest in God; Or you can be very active and preach and shout at God; Or it may even be like that man who just sat on God and paid little attention to the world.

There are two ways that God touches us. With the Holy Spirit he turns us into the sail of a ship and blows on us, wham! And it moves us, and we are moved by the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Holy Spirit move in us. When God does this, we become footwashers, servants, movers, and agitators in the kingdom of heaven. We change things and we change them by the power of God.

But God also moves us in another way. It fills us like a bottle and we don’t move. We are completely still and filled with Him. If we open our eyes and look at the world, all God is looking through us and we are at rest in God.

So God gives us these two ways of being in him, and both complement each other: rest and movement; tranquility and activity; pure worship in ecstasy and pure work in the world of things and people.

If we want to do a mission, we must first rest. We are like Jesus, who withdraws from people to be with the Father, and may be away from them for several days in a row.

It may take a few days for you to just settle down and be at peace with God; get away from being so active in God; and let your body and mind settle into God’s rest. When you are in God’s rest, then you can talk to God and together you can develop a plan.

And you are going to do this now. You are going to think of something you want to do, or something you want to have only in your human being. So we’re going to let God come and touch that so that his program also becomes God’s program. When your program has become God’s program, faith comes alive in it and then becomes the mustard seed.

When it becomes the mustard seed, you are beginning to do God’s will. You and God are working together on this in a strategic partnership.

The world might try to come against you as you live whatever it is that you and God planned to do together, but because you have developed this program in faith, you have the power of God to protect you as you go through it in real life. . The perfection of God’s love will always succeed, and God’s mustard seed is a seed of the Father’s perfect love.

Once we see these kinds of results in our lives, we begin to see the ministry of Jesus differently. We see that from the moment of his baptism he is drawing people to know God so that they can have the power to make a program with God. When we make programs in our heart with God and live those programs, we become perfect. And that fulfills the highest value of the Holy Bible.

If you go to your Bible and read Matthew chapter 5, verse 48, you will see that Jesus is saying:

“Therefore, you must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.”

Jesus can say that because he is perfect as the heavenly Father is perfect. But what is the way to be perfect? That is the burning question in our hearts today: how to be spiritually perfect; and how to find ways to help others be spiritually perfect like God.

Get into your heart in your faith and develop a program. Let God touch your faith in that show and then live that show. Then you will discover that even if you are a young person or an older person, a boy or a girl, you will find that perfection will begin to operate in your life. Now you are on the road like Enoch, Elijah and Jesus.

If you do it once today, you will have this moment of perfection. God will touch you and you will be with God. If you do this twice next week, you will have these two moments of perfection. If you do this ten times over the next month, you will have all those moments of perfection under your belt.

As we practice in our hearts, making programs with God, we become perfect and we learn to bring God’s perfection to more and more places in our lives until we have gone to all the places in our lives that have the potential to make us. Perfect.

At that moment we come to the place where God can also say to us: “This is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased.”

So, let’s do this now. Let’s now look at the Scriptures in Matthew chapter 18, verses 18 through 20 in your Bible. We see here a special formula of Jesus. He says,

“Truly I tell you that whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. Again I tell you that if two of you on earth agree on Whatever they ask, my Father who is in heaven will do for them. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there I am among them. ”

Joining something here on earth means preventing something from happening. We stop it from happening by the power of heaven to prevent things from happening.

Losing something here on earth is creating something new here on earth. We create that new thing with the power of heaven to create it. An example of that is the power of heaven to turn the mustard seed into a mustard tree. Plants grow not by the power of the earth, but by the power of heaven that creates them.

So I ask you to think of something you want to do or something you want to have. It will probably be something you want to unleash here on earth and if God touches your desire, then God turns it into a seed with heavenly power and our Father will make it happen through heavenly power.

Go to Mark chapter 11 and verse 24. In English we see here,

“That is why I tell you that whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours.”

This is what you are going to do. Remember, you are longing to find God, and one of the ways that Jesus allows us to find God is by losing something here on earth. This is what will happen. I want something. Let’s say, “I want to build a big church here and it has electricity, water, a concrete floor, lots of chairs, a good roof, and lots of shade.” Let’s think, “This is what I want.”

Jesus says: “If you believe that you have received what you just thought, it will be done to you.”

If you believe that God has released it into heaven for you, then it will come to earth for you. Then people will come together and we will find, “Oh, that church that you dreamed of back then, is starting to be built now.”

“So now, I’m going to find a friend and tell that person what I’m believing in. Then I’m going to believe that God has given me this,” and my friend is going to believe that God has already done it. released that for me too. We both believe that God has given me this.

Together, with my friend and I believing that I am receiving this from God, we will continue to believe until God invades our faith.

When God invades our faith, we will know God and we will know him in our faith, amen? And he will touch our faith and turn it into his seed and we will feel him do that.

Then we can stand up and say, “Praise God! He has touched my faith!”

And you can speak to him: “My Father, you have touched my faith”, and you are in the direct presence of God.

In that moment, he is hugging you and you are hugging him, and you know that he is touching your faith and filling your mind and his blessing is pouring into you.

In that moment, in your heart you know: “Yes, this is God.”

Finding God is more important than even doing God’s works. To do the works of God without ever having found God is to turn things upside down.

But let’s do it now. You’re going to tell your friend, “This is what I’m believing in.”

So you two can now begin to believe that God has now done that for you, and you will continue to believe silently until God enters your beliefs. Then when that has happened, your friend will also know that God has entered your faith for you. Both will have God’s confirmation.

OK lets start.

Heavenly Father, you have heard my Word and sent me here to this place, Lord. I pray now in the name of Jesus that you will honor your Word, Lord, and step into their faith and release the heavenly power to cause their desire to be unleashed here in the world. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Now you can start, the first person and then the second person. It should only take a few minutes per person, but it should take as long as you need.

AFTER

God has put his power in your faith. He has put his power in your faith in the same way that he put his power in the faith of Jesus. God is not respect or people, amen? God will honor all faith, amen? We cannot please God unless we use faith. Amen?

So what God the Father has done with Jesus Christ, He is doing now with you as well. He has touched his faith and he has touched the faith of Jesus; it is the same faith.

Therefore, now you must remember what you have desired and what God has touched. Remember it in your mind. Remember it in your heart. Write it down in your Bible: “Today the perfect love of the Father has touched this particular desire in my heart, and because it has turned it into a divine seed, it will happen. Not only that, for a moment I knew God intimately, and I relished his presence and his perfect love “.

Then when it happens, when this comes into your life, go back to your Bible and you can write under what you just wrote: “Yes, it has happened now! According to my biblical faith and God’s promise to touch my faith , and out of his perfect love by faith I planted my seed and now it has produced its harvest, and I have this for which God and I made the program. “

When you do this in your time of prayer, let God touch you. When God can touch you, you can know His presence. When you extend that time together in a little meditation, in this way you can get to know God.

Cocker Spaniel Teething – How To Help Your Puppy During Teething

Your Cocker Spaniel is teething and chewing fuss. No matter what it is, furniture, shoes, books, fingers, lamp cords, socks, remote controls; Anything within reach works for the puppy. How can you stop this behavior?

To tell the truth, the cocker spaniel does not know any better and only seeks to remedy a problem in his own way. The problem is the discomfort during teething. In this article, we’ll cover a variety of solutions to stop chewing pain and fuss by channeling the puppy’s behavior in a positive direction with pain relief solutions. What not to do is just as important as knowing what to do.

First, we must understand that chewing on the Cocker Spaniel’s teething is not bad behavior, but rather a means for your puppy to deal with discomfort. Teething is a natural process for all puppies. For starters, when your dog feels the urge to chew, it is best to provide aids to help him. Rubber toys, frozen towels, and chew rings are a good quick fix. However, we will cover more solutions in greater detail in just a minute. Let’s get an idea of ​​the Cocker Spaniel’s teething cycle so we know what we’re dealing with here.

The teething cycle

1) Between 2 and 6 weeks, milk, also known as deciduous teeth, will begin to surface. These are the little needle-sharp teeth that your puppy will first expose through his gums; there are usually about 28 deciduous teeth.

2) Deciduous teeth can last between 4 months and a year. During this time, the permanent teeth will emerge gradually replacing the temporary teeth becoming the dog’s permanent teeth. Typically 42 permanent teeth by the time it is done. The puppy may experience some minor discomfort for up to a year after the permanent teeth have been exposed.

3) Most Cocker Spaniels will experience the most discomfort between 2 and 7 months during the teething process.

4) You can expect permanent incisors between 2 and 5 months (used for nibbling), fangs between 2 and 5 months (used for grasping), premolars between 4 and 6 months (used for tearing), canines and molars between 5 and 5 months. 7 months (used for shredding).

5) Malnourished puppies will have slower teeth, large breeds will bite earlier than smaller breeds. Of course, race, gender, and date of birth all influence the teething process. But, in general, the cycle is quite closed for everyone.

What makes the puppy chew?

During the teething period, the dog’s gums itch and are very sensitive. The Cocker will try to alleviate the discomfort by chewing on anything that his mouth can hold onto. This has a calming effect and relieves pressure on the gums.

Teething Solutions: Helping Your Cocker Spaniel Through the Process

Here are some effective solutions. It is best to use several during the teething process to prevent your puppy from getting bored.

1) Ice Cubes: Rub the ice cubes on the puppy’s gums. The cold will help number the area. Your dog may like to lick and try to chew on them too.

2) Popsicle – Give the dog a fruity popsicle as an occasional treat. Remove the stick.

3) Cold towels: Take some old towels, soak them in water, and put them in the freezer long enough to cool them down. The dog will like to chew them and it will help reduce inflammation of the gums.

4) Cold rope: dip a rope and partially freeze it. You want the rope to be big enough that the dog won’t swallow it.

5) Hard Cold Chew Toys: They are also good for soothing the gums. Place chew toys in the freezer to cool before giving them to the puppy.

6) Bone marrow: boil in chicken or beef broth for fifteen minutes. The dog will love these.

7) Aloe Vera: Freeze to a slush consistency and then rub on the gums. When rubbing the gums, get behind the dog and reach forward to support the dog’s chin and then rub the Aloe Vera on the gums. A good massage of the upper and lower gums also helps.

8) PetAlive Puppy Tooth Granules – Very effective in relieving acute symptoms, pain, and inflammation of the gums. It will also reduce the need to chew.

What not to do during the Cocker Spaniel teething

1) Don’t play aggressive games with your dog like tug of war. It is best not to participate in any activities that your puppy may associate with aggression and dominance.

2) Do not allow your Cocker to chew on old shoes or household items that you no longer want. The dog does not recognize the difference and will assume that it must be okay to chew on items of the same type that it can find.

3) Do not yell or yell at your dog if he must destroy or chew non-prohibited items. It’s best to catch them in action and redirect your attention to one of the remedies listed above. This way, you can work to break down the unwanted behavior.

4) Don’t let the dog game bite you. It may seem cute at first, but this behavior will only lead to a bigger problem down the road.

5) Do not allow a teething puppy to play with young children unsupervised.

Simple solutions will help control chewing. You can expect the entire teething process to take 7-10 months. Making sure your pup is getting the correct nutrients and excise duties will help promote the process. With proper care and supervision, you can monitor and help your Cocker Spaniel out of teething with ease.

How to Get Rid of a Lisp: Speak Clearly and Appear Smarter

Can having a lisp in speech be a big problem? This is especially true when people start asking you to repeat what you just said. It can also be a cause of harassment when people start to copy your gestures when speaking or your voice.

To avoid the problems that a lisp causes, here are the things you can do.

First, you need to find out in which situations you are experiencing a lisp. Typically, people with a lisp do not experience the condition all the time. It only appears during specific periods or emotions, such as when a person is excited or nervous about something. Knowing when your lisp occurs will help you avoid such situations and thus avoid the lisp.

Next, you should always try to speak more slowly than usual. If the people around you are already picking up on the way you speak, you should start to be very careful. Speaking slowly will allow you to articulate each word that you are saying and it will also allow you to pronounce the words better. It will also relax your muscles so you can control them more easily.

The third step is to get help from experts. Some cases of lisp are quite extreme. For people who have them, it will be advisable to get help from the professions. There are certain speech therapy programs that are provided to correct the speech of people with lisp.

If you have done the first two steps and are still not ready to get help from a professional, you can try the toothy smile method. This method is a kind of speech therapy that aims to allow the tongue to move more freely. The first thing to do with this method is smile. Your smile should be big and warm. It should be large enough that your teeth show when you are doing it.

Keeping that same smile, pick up a book and read it out loud. If you don’t have a book, do a monologue. It may sound strange, but this is good practice for your language. Whenever you say something out loud, your tongue gradually learns to position itself. Do this technique when you are alone in your room and never try it in front of people or they might think you are crazy.

You can also ask a friend or family member to help you overcome the lisp problem. Ask someone close to you to say some words that are difficult for you to pronounce. Observe their mouth and the movement of their tongue carefully and then try to imitate them in front of a mirror. This will help you to know how to correctly move your tongue to produce the correct sounds.

It may take some time to completely get rid of the lisp, but it’s okay. All you need is to practice a lot and be patient. Do the best you can and trust yourself to get through it.

The following information can help you use Facebook to market your personal brand and offer to grow your customer base.

Benefits of a group

A Facebook group can be beneficial to all members by sharing relative and relevant content with each other. A group can encourage subscribers to join an online community and communicate regularly. This will also give you the ability to inform your subscribers of updates, build engagement, and share the business, content, and ideas of others.

It is not advisable to buy Facebook fans just to have “numbers”. While it can be tempting, you don’t always get the results you want. Those fans are not necessarily leads targeted at your niche and will bring relatively nothing to the table.

Make sure your Facebook group is consistent with your niche and your personal brand. Appearance is important in marketing your personal brand. If your page isn’t attractive, people are less likely to want to visit it, much less come back.

Sharing valuable content

Make valuable, content-rich posts and videos. Fans will follow you if they get value and engagement from your content and community. Use Facebook as a means of engagement, not as a platform to push or try to “sell” your product (s).

Regularly posting videos to Facebook, whether uploaded or live, is another way to share your information and improve your brand. It’s easier to get someone’s attention through video. You can also share your article information in print, along with your video, for greater exposure.

Encourage engagement

Encourage communication with your audience. If a customer posts a comment, reply and participate. If you find a follower offering quality information or products, please let them know and share with your group. Social media is vital to the growth of your brand and business.

Try to keep the information you post current and relevant. Your posts should stay on topic and within your niche. Use various methods to attract your fans, some of which may be:

  • Videos
  • Articles
  • Polls
  • Contests
  • Memes

Customize your video ideas accordingly to grab your audience’s attention. For example, if you sell a product, make a video that describes the product, how to use it, the benefits, etc., not just trying to sell the product. Always lead with benefits and value.

Was Jesus Christ a long-haired sissy who looked like a coward? – Part 1

First, I want to establish the direction of this series of articles by comparing the evidence of the Holy Scripture with the supposed religious images of Yashua Anointed (The Lord Jesus Christ), that is, the paintings, the pictures, the statues, the icons, even the cards small ‘harmless’ ones on display for sale at your local Christian bookstore, etc. etc. etc.

From our childhood, if we have had a traditional Christian upbringing, we will be bombarded with these effeminate false images of Jesus Christ. This image of the long-haired coward is a fact in Cainite-Judeo-Christian religious circles, but is it a real likeness? Also, and in truth, should there be any resemblance? Are they not idolaters?

However, with that said, after completing this introduction, I will proceed to expose the negative effects these false images have had on Christians and Christianity in general. In fact, and even on how Yashua Anointed and Christianity’s (secular) worldview has been affected and tainted by these false images. Make no mistake, these images are simply an insult and slander of (or more lies about) Yashua Anointed in pictorial form. These image-based lies, rather than the usual oral and literary religious forms, are the foundation on which an entire religious / political system or industry has been built to make money.

These blasphemous false images have been promulgated, displayed, and promoted by the Cainite-Judeo-Christian Religion throughout the centuries – a 2,000-year-old marketing program. Thanks to modern marketing techniques, we now know that images are a much more powerful tool for generating impact and getting your message across than the written or spoken word. Humanity and ‘human’ Beings are only now beginning to understand the subliminal element of the value of images in marketing, but you can bet your life that Satan knows full well how powerful they are. This evil, too, without any impulse, has been assisted with enthusiasm and will by a predominantly disbelieving secular art world. How have these illegitimate religious and counterfeiters gotten away with their incredulous secular artists for so long, when no one really knows what Yashua Anointed was like? There is no recorded description of Yashua Anointed’s physical appearance at all – none! This was also intentional on the part of Yashua Anointed.

The good and the interesting is we know how it didn’t look, and thanks to this valuable data we can quickly verify that the images generally promulgated by Cainite-Judeo-Christian religious forgers are blasphemous !! For evidence of this, let us now turn to 1 Corinthians, where Paul states quite clearly and unequivocally what Yashua Anointed thinks about the appearance of effeminacy in men or in men who wear their hair in a feminine way:

1 Corinthians 11:14 (KJV) Doesn’t even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a shame to him?

Now in the transliteral Greek MSS:

1 Corinthians 11:14 Yet (even) nature (instinct) itself is teaching you that man indeed, if he can ever be worthless (dishonor) to him, is.

Here we can clearly see that there is a slight difference between the Greek version of MSS and the King James (KJV) version. However, this difference doesn’t change the point Yashua Anointed is making here, via Paul, but due to naysayers and mosquito strainers who may object to what I’m saying, I’ll spell it out. The KJV says “long hair” and the Greek manuscript says “tressing.” What is ‘tense’? In my Oxford Concise Dictionary it gives ‘braid’: portion, strand, braid of human hair, especially female or girl head. Now to successfully braid hair it has to be long, so clearly what Yashua Anointed was saying, through Paul, to these Corinthian men was this: don’t dress or wear your hair in a feminine way.. Why? Why, because it is dishonorable or shameful to a man who does such a thing?

Now we have to ask ourselves some questions: Why do all the paintings, icons, pictures, statues and various images of Yashua Anointed show him with long hair? Many also show him with a pathetic goatee. Any man who has grown a beard will tell you that this type of beard is often worn by those men who cannot grow a full beard. This extra ‘feature’ just adds to his bigger picture, the bigger picture of a weak and ineffectual effeminate man. In many images they portray the Lord as emaciated, extremely thin and undernourished, and more images of sickly and ineffective weakness.

In general, the Cainite-Judeo-Christian religious image of Yashua’s Anointed One is defamatory of weakness and effeminacy – why? Come on, we know why we don’t; don’t you need a lot of exercise? They portray Him this way because they are against Him, they are not by He, they dishonor him with delight and willingness. This is done for you to believe in them – the men of the Cainite-Judeo-Christian Religion and not in an Almighty Anointed Yashua who will return in Almighty Power to rule this earth with a rod of iron (tough love).

Revelation 12: 5 (KJV) And she gave birth to a male child, who would rule (shepherd) all nations with a rod of iron (tough love): and her child was caught up to God and to his throne. (Mine supports)

Here’s another question: Can you imagine a nancy boy’s faint, effeminate image (s) of a Jesus shepherding the earth as with an iron rod? I will answer for you, there is no chance!

Well, having set the above backdrop in place, we now have to move on to the modern Cainite-Judeo-Christian ideas that emanate from these blasphemous and feeble images. These are the negative end results caused, in part, by these evil images, after nearly 2000 years of demonic propaganda. The images themselves are bad enough, but their negative impact on the mental and spiritual effect of believers can only be quantified through the answers to the questions I have listed below, such is their effect. As witness and messenger of Yashua’s Anointed, I know what happens in The World with all its violence, murder, betrayal, theft, corruption, domination, manipulation and freaker control. I also know what goes on within the Cainite-Judeo-Christian Religion or the so-called church and continually monitor its hype, its silly notions, its latest fashions, jargon, buzzwords and ideas. So, from all this testimony and considerable personal experiences, I have gathered these questions:

Would Yashua Anointed have defended his ‘human’ Rights? Would Yashua Anointed have given his blessing on multiculturalism? Would Yashua Anointed stand at the window with the Pope in the Vatican sharing the adulation? Literally as I write a number of people are gathering in South London to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the British abolition of slavery, would Yashua Anointed have joined? Would Yashua Anointed have “opposed” apartheid? Was Yashua Anointed the first hippy to go around saying “Man of Peace”? Yashua Anointed was a Hollywood lover, sentimental and always so kind trying not to offend people? Was Yashua Anointed a benefactor liberal reformer and did he want us to be? Would Yashua Anointed have stood shoulder to shoulder with Dr. Martin Luther King? Was Yashua Anointed weak or meek, because many foolish ‘Christians’ mistakenly think meekness is a form of weakness or endless martyrdom or what I call the doormat ‘Christian’ lifestyle? because I love it. Was Yashua anointed a communist or a socialist? Would the Spanish Inquisition have had the blessing of Yashua Anointed? Would Yashua Anointed have lived in Sherwood Forest with Robin Hood and been his friend? Did Anointed Yashua ever say “let’s make poverty history”? Had Yashua Anointed Joined the Crusades? Did Yashua Anointed ever tell his followers to “go and change the world” or to “go and make a difference”? Would Yashua Anointed have been a tree hugger and / or member of Greenpeace?

Now there are many questions and why have I asked them? Well, first of all, I have asked these questions because they needed to be asked, and urgently !! Second, I have asked these questions because these questions reflect a spiritual continuation, rather than just a physical continuation of the false images described above. In turn, the problems raised by these questions are wonderfully related to false physical images; they are like the other side of the same coin.

The images described above in the opening paragraphs are just that, physically molded and painted man-made images of what men believe to be Yashua Anointed. This is a very bad habit these creatures have gotten into, so much so, then they went one step further and molded Yashua Anointed into an active false image, an image that would actually do things instead of hanging lifelessly on a wall or standing lifeless on a shelf. Naturally, the things that this image would do and do are not really what Yashua Anointed does, or his activities and ideas, but what these creatures think he would be doing if he were here. This is the liberal, long-haired, effeminate, wimpy image in action: her false physical image has now come to life through these people, first in their minds and, once, to its full realization, throughout their changing world. ‘ change agent’. ideas, activities and so-called “good” deeds.

In summary, the most important thing about these questions is that much of the Cainite-Judeo-Christian religion, if not most, wholeheartedly believes in the spirit of the ideas in the previous questions. Now this is the real heart of the problem. The spirit of these questions is the essence of what they believe Christianity to be. This is what they think, in general, it is about, but where do they get these misconceptions? That’s easy, just take your base from the effeminate, long-haired, wimpy fake images of Yashua Anointed and then add them from this world, its system (s), its history, its politics, and its religion (s) ( s) mix them all. in a hell of a wicked mess and then you end up with what they believe in, no wonder they are confused.

Okay, that’s it for the first article and I’ll cover the answers to all the above questions in the articles that follow. I hope you have found this article liberating, if so, well, because that means you are on the Path – Your Path to the narrow path of freedom under His Glorious Grace. Always remember, friends, that only the true Lord Jesus Christ (Yashua Anointed) is The Way, not the child of Nancy and the long-haired coward of the Cainite-Judeo-Christian Religion.

More dining options at the University of West Florida

As a current student at the University of West Florida, I frequently like the dining options that are available on campus. In my freshman year, I had the displeasure of having a meal plan. Where I was forced to eat 12 meals a week at the Nautilus Market, an all you can eat option. Also, I had to spend $ 300 at another provider on campus. It was necessary and expensive. I propose that the University of West Florida provide students with better dining options on campus.

Currently, there are 11 places to eat something on campus. However, four of them are just take-out coffees, so I wouldn’t consider them viable options. These cafes are good at their locations. They are in specific buildings like the commercial building and the library. These are good options if you are in a rush.

Where UWF Dining really needs help is in the commons. We have the Nautilus Market, an option that is primarily for freshmen and students with meal plans. They give many options, however, they are not good. The food literally made me sick multiple times. Also, the only healthy / vegan / vegetarian options are salads. Personally, I think the salad tastes like it has been drizzled with preservatives. Also, in the commons there are Quiznos; it’s decent if you like Quiznos. The chick-n-grill shouldn’t even be considered a restaurant, because it has no flavor. He is a chipotle who wants to be, and fails. The Argo Galley is good. They have beer and wine. Their food is basic bar food but expensive.

I did some research on other schools’ dining options and what I found was disappointing. The University of Florida has chain options throughout its campus. They have Panda Express, Einstein Bagels, and Moe’s Southwest Grill; FSU has even more! It could be argued that theses are significantly larger schools and are Division 1 in athletics. However, even other D2 schools in Florida like Nova SouthEastern, Barry, Flagler, and the University of North Florida have better dining options than UWF. Nova has a Subway, an Au Bon Pain, and an Eisenstein Bagels. UNF has a Jamba Juice, a super popular fast food chicken joint, and a Pita Pit. Even just bringing a Pita Pit could make a world of difference. The local Pita Pit is always busy at lunchtime, and this could attract more students to stay and eat on campus.

The University of West Florida needs to step up its dining options. Food is a must and if students are unhappy, that could be a determining factor for which school they choose to go to.
