![]() I call it a narrative because there is a story being told here. It is a word for us as a community in a time during which many of the lies that have held us captive for too long are being exposed to the light of day.Īnd so we turn back to the narrative in Psalm 30. ![]() It is a word for us when the ground is shifting under our feet and the old maps no longer describe the new land. It is a word addressed to all of us at some time or another in our lives when we are thrown into an abyss of utter confusion and despair. What does it mean for our lives today in this kairos moment that we have a God who is moved to action by our lamentations?Īnd so I want to try to offer a word this morning which is both pastoral AND prophetic. It has always amazed me that there are so many Biblical examples of people bringing their complaints directly to God and that God, rather than take offense or rebuke them, receives them, responds to them and even seems to lift up their example for others to imitate and follow. Have you ever stopped to reflect upon how the Biblical saints sometimes called God out for seeming to abandon them? So as I come to the Bible I am drawn to the lectionary passages for this week coming from the book of Psalms and Lamentations, and particularly this morning to Psalm 30.ĭid you know that over one-third of the Psalms in the Bible contain complaints directed toward God and pleading with God to intervene and come to our aid? But there is a movement underfoot, a mighty restlessness, an upheaval of the Spirit. This flag comes down today.” This is a Kairos moment in our nation and we don’t know how long the window of opportunity will remain open. It is indicative of a kairos moment when self-proclaimed Christian freedom fighter Bree Newsome scaled the flagpole in Columbia, South Carolina Saturday morning and took down the Confederate flag with the words “You come against me in the name of hatred, repression, and violence. A kairos moment is when the undercurrents of history seem to break to the surface and you realize that you are part of something much bigger than what’s happening near your own little boat. Not a sequential time but an opportune time, not a determinate time in which only a few things can happen, but an indeterminate time in which anything might happen.Ī kairos moment presents opportunities for initiatives and undertakings that might be lost if not acted upon immediately. Moment by moment time.īut kairos is a different kind of time. Chronos was chronological or sequential time the time that we track on our watches and cellphones. The ancient Greeks had two words for time: chronos and kairos. The events of recent months are too familiar to need rehearsing. What does it mean in this Kairos moment that we have a God moved by our lamentations? Text: Psalm 30 (Fifth Sunday of Pentecost, Year B) By Ric Hudgens, a sermon at Second Baptist Church, Evanston, June 28, 2015

![]() “We understand that our young people have so many different types of trials and trauma that they have to deal with. Paula Hicks-Hudson, a Toledo Democrat, argued that the measure will only hurt transgender youth. ![]() But there are things where it’s important for the state to step in and protect the child,” Huffman said.īut Sen. “Certainly the parents are the most important decision-maker in a child’s life. Parents also say the bill obliterates their rights and ability to make informed health care decisions for their transgender children.īut Senate President Matt Huffman, a Lima Republican, said Wednesday that passing the law would be akin to backing measures that prevent parents from giving their children illicit drugs or physically abusing them. They decry the legislation as cruel, life threatening to transgender youth and based on fearmongering rather than scientific fact. Hundreds of opponents have testified against the bill, including medical and mental health providers, education professionals, faith leaders, parents of transgender children and transgender individuals themselves. ![]() The rule, announced in April, states that blanket bans violateTitle IX, the landmark federal gender-equity legislation enacted in 1972. Those bans would be upended by a regulation proposed by President Joe Biden’s administration that is set to be finalized early next year. The proposal also would require public K-12 schools and universities to designate separate teams for male and female sexes, and would explicitly ban transgender girls and women from participating in girls and women’s sports.Īt least 20 states have passed some version of a ban on transgender athletes playing on K-12 and collegiate sports teams statewide. Courts have blocked enforcement in three states while such legislation is currently allowed or set to go into effect soon in seven other states. The nation’s first law, in Arkansas, was struck down by a federal judge who said the ban on care violated the due process rights of transgender youth and their families. Since 2021, more than 20 states have enacted laws restricting or banning such treatments, despite the fact that they have been available in the United States for more than a decade and are endorsed by major medical associations. Most of these states face lawsuits, but courts have issued mixed rulings. The latest version of the bill allows for any minor who is an Ohio resident currently receiving care to see that care through. Under the legislation, minors in Ohio would be prohibited from taking puberty blockers and undergoing other hormone therapies or receiving gender reassignment surgery that would further align them with their gender identity.Īn amendment added this week changes a provision that would have forced children receiving gender affirming care to stop treatment or leave the state to obtain it. He previously had expressed doubts about the sports restrictions, saying such decisions were best made by individual sports organizations.ĭeWine’s spokesperson, Dan Tierney, said the governor’s office would not comment on the legislation until it has thoroughly reviewed it. DeWine has not said whether he will sign it. The GOP-dominated House agreed to some Senate-made changes to the bill Wednesday evening and sent the measure to Republican Gov. ![]() I want to grow old with you babe – every single day of my life is worth it just to be able to hold your hand and kiss.My babe, I could never explain how much I love you in words, so the best way to show you is by being there for you always.Babe, your hugs make me feel safe and secure, I can’t thank you enough for that so.Hey babe, You reign over my heart like an angel from above, and I can’t help but love you.I used to think love was just a fairytale babe until I met you and realized it is real.I love you babe, the way you tease me, the way you talk to me, the way you listen to me, and the way you touch me.Hey babe, when people ask me why I am so happy all the time and I never have anything bad to say about anyone or anything, I just tell them that I love you babe and that’s why I’m always smiling.I’m so in love babe, I’m not sure what to do!

When such “leadership” wasn’t forthcoming from me, this was proof of a clear failure of character by a politician guided solely by cynical and personal interests. Yet this didn’t prevent American presidents and their envoys from attempting to tutor Israeli prime ministers, especially me, about the need for “courage” and “leadership.” I was being lectured about courage from people who had neither risked their own lives in war nor their political lives. Would American presidents consider taking “courageous actions,” such as, to use a historical example, far-reaching concessions to the Soviet Union if Congress could remove them from office the next day? Of course not. “The US administration constantly sought to advance its misplaced messianic quest for a magical peace via “courageous” acts on the part of Israel’s leaders, even if these acts meant political suicide. Second, it refused to really internalize that Israel’s government was dependent on a parliamentary system in which the prime minister could be toppled at any moment by the slimmest of majorities.” ![]() First, it refused to see that the core of our conflict with the Palestinians was the persistent Palestinian refusal to recognize a Jewish state in any boundary. The administration suffered from double-barreled myopia. But such was the diplomatic mind-set of Washington in those days. The democratically elected leader of the staunchest ally of the US and the leader of a terrorist organization that had murdered hundreds of Americans were put on equal footing. “Netanyahu and Arafat are both allies of the United States,” the White House briefed Israeli reporters.3 This was incredible. But this was clearly as good as it was going to get. I thought that was peculiar since the only courage Arafat displayed was the courage to receive the Palestinian neighborhoods we had transferred to his control. Clinton sent me a letter commending me for my “courage” for making a tough decision. “After the Hebron Agreement there was the briefest of honeymoons with the Clinton administration.

Flashbulb memories tend to endure over long. People often experience these memories in photographic detail, and can recall aspects like what they were doing when the event occurred or how they learned about what happened.

I'm regularly using something like this: % wget -O /dev/null -progress=dot:mega date This could be solved by the -j option which tells aria2c the maximum concurrent connections we want (Which by default is 5) but if the server has limited this, -j will not work. We set 8 parallel connections but the site only allowed a maximum of 5 as shown by CN:5. But if we tried to have more connections we would get something like this: The CN parameter in the next line shows how many active parallel connections were permitted to download from that site. In the image, the -x 4 is how many parallel connections we wish to use. To use aria2 we fist need to download it: sudo apt-get install aria2 The downside of wget is the lack of parallel connections. ![]() Never test only from the same site as this can be affected by your distance to it, any problem in the server and the connections to it, etc. You need to have at least 4 or 5 different testing sources to have a more accurate speed. This will help you have a more accurate check. You need to do the test at least 5 times to have a reliable speed check or at least do it for a minute or two. If your connection is 512KB and the place where you are downloading is 400KB, your max connection will be 400KB because it is the max for the server you are downloading from. The highest speed you will see is the maximum speed that your connection and the server's connection can offer. In the case of my link the speed is less than 200KB so if you have a higher speed, the server will be the bottleneck for you, not your actual speed. Of course there are several recommendations: Typing: wget would start to download the Ubu1.avi file and show at what speed it is downloading. To use it just point to a file in internet that is relatively bigger so that you can get a better estimate of it. That little tool tells me nicely what speed I have. Update in 2022: sudo apt install speedtest-cli Using pip install -user speedtest-cli gets you a version that is probably newer than the one available from your distribution's repositories.

If you would like to take a look at how this test looks on both the desktop and mobile versions of the Spectrum website, check out the screenshots we took during and after testing.I recommend the speedtest-cli tool for this. These speeds were right in line with our expectations, and the results were pretty steady from test to test, so we believe the Spectrum test to be quite accurate. The average download speed registered at 149.0 Mbps, while the upload speeds were all recorded at the exact same speed of 6.0 Mbps. Considering that the vast majority of internet speed tests do analyze ping times, this was a disappointing discovery. However, one fairly major gripe we have with this test is the fact that it does not record ping or latency times. Getting down to the specifics, the Spectrum speed test took an average of 5.3 seconds to load and 35.5 seconds to run, which are typical times compared to most competitors. ![]() The Spectrum speed test also produced results in this range, and we were impressed with the general reliability and consistency. For these tests, we used a connection that advertises download speeds of up to 150 Mbps, and competing speed tests confirmed that we were indeed receiving speeds at or exceeding the advertised rates.
