![]() And be thankful.Ģ Thessalonians 3:16 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. It empties today of its strength.- Corrie Ten BoomĬolossians 3:15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow. Worry doesn’t have to be a constant struggle if we allow the peace of Christ in our hearts. ![]() Bible Verses About Replacing Worry With God’s Peace This is what Jesus said to His followers, and the same instructions hold true for us today: “Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you” (Matthew 6:33). Scripture is clear that we shouldn’t focus on the plans, needs, and uncertainties of tomorrow, but it’s also clear about where our focus should be instead. But it’s not simply a cold, abrupt command to stop worrying. God’s Word is clear-believers are not to be given over to anxiety. ![]() Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?” The tense of the Greek text is properly translated, “Stop worrying.” The tense in Matthew 6:31 is different, however, and means, “Don’t start worrying.” Thus Jesus brackets our passage with this meaning: If you are worrying, quit if you haven’t started, don’t. In Matthew 6:25 Jesus commanded His followers, “Do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Pastor and author John MacArthur give some insight into what Jesus said about worry: Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you my peace I give to you. Luke 12:25 “And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?” For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” Matthew 6:34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?” Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Matthew 6:25-27 “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. ![]() Jesus talked about worry and anxiety more than a few times, and he reminds us of how much God loves us, and how He can give us rest.

Given the popularity of the Northolt Nightshoots these days, it really takes something quite original and special to stand out on our boards, which is truly an indication of the standards of photography on our forums. However, bringing back fond memories of that charismatic machine, Savvas provided us with a great set as a tribute, including this excellent shot showing the sweaty, dirty, "operational" machine for all it was worth and known for. The venerable Hellenic A-7E Corsairs were retired in the back-end of 2014, marking the final flights of the type in the world. We love Savvas' threads from Greece, and this is no exception. Caught turning on finals at Nellis, this 28th Bomb Wing "Bone" from Ellesworth AFB, we've not seen an angle like this on a B-1B for some time. It's been far too long since we've seen a B-1 in the UK, and we think it's about time the venerable Bones made their way to these shores again! In the meantime, however, shots like Tom's are keeping our appetites well whetted, and it's easy to see why. It's not something that is often seen on our forum, and combining an excellent subject with very atmospheric backgrounds has produced a winning shot. Kevin has had a great trip to the USA recently, and we've pricked our ears up at a number of his threads recently, including this one from Muir Army Airfield, at Fort Indiatown Gap in Pennsylvania which is home to the Eastern Army National Guard Aviation Training Site with based machines being the UH-60, UH-72 and CH-47 Chinook, as is featured here. With that, we wish Rick a sad but very, very fond farewell, and the best wishes in his future endeavours. Be sure to click on the image to see the whole thread, which is full of beautiful photography from someone we'll no-longer see any more. In another one of this threads that was impossible to choose a favourite, we opted for this beautifully composed shot of an aggressor F-15C at low level in Death Valley.

The announcement spread like wildfire and the line-up is now just as impressive as it ever was in the past. In late 2016, twenty years after the last show, the Breckenridge Chamber of Commerce, Stephens County Airport, and Ezell Aviation announced the air show will return in 2017. Then, like so many other shows, it ceased to exist. In 1977, the late-Howard Pardue was instrumental in starting the Breckenridge Airshow and for two decades this airshow always attracted warbirds from around the country and from within Texas, which has always been home to a number of Commemorative Air Force (CAF) squadrons, flying museums, and private collections. At many warbird shows one can walk right up to their favorite aircraft and see it up close, touch it, smell it and often it will reach out and touch you with a few drips of oil.įor as many warbird airshows one can name there are others that have faded into our memories. The latter is often roped off so a spectator can only marvel at their beauty from a distance. Quite often a warbird airshow can touch the lives of young and old in a much more intimate way than an airshow that is dominated by modern military hardware. The names of these traditionally warbird-heavy airshows all elicit visions of warbirds large and small as far as the eye can see, while the sky reverberates to the rumble of Wrights, Pratt & Whitneys, Allisons, and Merlins.

I am trying to capture network traffic - specifically management frames (and from these, particularly beacon frames) in Windows. ![]() ![]() The region of Rochester, New York, was well-known for Feltman’s Red Hot, which is a frankfurter. He reportedly ordered what they called a “coney island”, then was quoted as saying it was “practically tasteless … unfit for a young man whose palate was accustomed to the hardy cuisine of southeast Europe … They used ground beef, a little chili powder, a little paprika, but it had no taste.” Thinking back to the Macedonian goulash he’d eaten back in Boufi, which contained beef heart and occasionally beef kidney, all in a beef suet base, he determined he could make a better coney sauce based on the heartiness of that Macedonian dish. This was likely while he was in Buffalo after his second immigration in 1921. ![]() It’s been reported that Flint Coney founder Simion Brayan visited a lunch counter in Rochester, New York. Feltman subsequently turned this into a very lucrative resort, with rides and restaurants, and by 1920 was serving an estimated five million customers each year. He then opened Feltman’s German Gardens, also on Coney Island, in about 1870. By 1867 he was selling meat pies from a wagon on Coney Island when he came up with what he called the “Red Hot”. The one development that would be important to the Coney Island hot dog is that a gentleman named Thomas Feltman immigrated from Germany in 1856 at the age of 15. While the Koegel Coney Frank might be thought of as a “frank made for coneys”, it and similar products around the country have historically been packaged and offered on restaurant menus using only the word “coney.” The “coney” is the dog itself, without the sauce, regardless of claims to the contrary. But history, including the history of the Flint Coney, shows that the coney dogs themselves are the defining factor, without the sauce. ![]() Online discussions can become rather heated when discussing what defines a “coney.” The most prominent misconception is that it’s made up of a hot dog in a bun with a sauce. ![]() ![]() ![]() Step 2: Choose the Output FormatĪs the file opens up, you must navigate to the right panel and find the "Export PDF" button.

Lifeĭiogenes Searching for an Honest Man (1640–1647) by Giovanni Benedetto / National Gallery of Art, Wikimedia Commons No writings of Diogenes survive but there are some details of his life from anecdotes ( chreia), especially from Diogenes Laërtius’ book Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers and some other sources. There he passed his philosophy of Cynicism to Crates, who taught it to Zeno of Citium, who fashioned it into the school of Stoicism, one of the most enduring schools of Greek philosophy. ĭiogenes was captured by pirates and sold into slavery, eventually settling in Corinth. Diogenes was also noted for having mocked Alexander the Great, both in public and to his face when he visited Corinth in 336 BC. He criticized Plato, disputed his interpretation of Socrates, and sabotaged his lectures, sometimes distracting listeners by bringing food and eating during the discussions. He became notorious for his philosophical stunts, such as carrying a lamp during the day, claiming to be looking for a man (often rendered in English as “looking for an honest man”). He begged for a living and often slept in a large ceramic jar, or pithos, in the marketplace. Diogenes Searching for an Honest Man (1640–1647) by Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione held at the National Gallery of Artĭiogenes made a virtue of poverty. There are many tales about his dogging Antisthenes’ footsteps and becoming his “faithful hound”. ![]() He declared himself a cosmopolitan and a citizen of the world rather than claiming allegiance to just one place. He had a reputation for sleeping and eating wherever he chose in a highly non-traditional fashion, and took to toughening himself against nature. ![]() He used his simple lifestyle and behavior to criticize the social values and institutions of what he saw as a corrupt, confused society. He modelled himself on the example of Heracles, and believed that virtue was better revealed in action than in theory. After being exiled, he moved to Athens and criticized many cultural conventions of the city. His father minted coins for a living, and Diogenes was banished from Sinope when he took to debasement of currency. He was born in Sinope, an Ionian colony on the Black Sea coast of modern-day Turkey, in 412 or 404 BC and died at Corinth in 323 BC. He begged for a living and often slept in a large ceramic jar, or pithos, in the marketplace.ĭiogenes, also known as Diogenes the Cynic, was a Greek philosopher and one of the founders of Cynic philosophy. The artist preferred to use the style even though it was outfaced in the British art world.Diogenes (1882), by John William Waterhouse / Art Gallery of New South Wales, Wikimedia Commons Artists within the brotherhood include Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Holman Hunt and John Everett Millais. It occurred several years after the split of the famous brotherhood reffered to as the Pre-Raphaelite. Who inspired the artist? John William Waterhouse performed his paintings and followed a similar style to the Pre-Raphaelite style. Currently, Diogenes is used to naming a behavioural disorder known for instinctive self condemnation and hoarding. Through living by example, he proved that a happy man does not require any influence of the overall community and civilization is a regressive phenomenon. He passed his message by living by example. Diogenes expressed Socrates' affection of virtue and dissimilarities in riches, along with contempt for an overall opinion. He was the first person to use the term cosmopolitan. When people asked Diogenes about his origin, he replied that he is a citizen of the universe. He states that morality implies a come-back to the simpleness of nature. Stoicism is one of the famous schools known for Greek philosophy.ĭiogenes believes that all human-made developments are incompatible with happiness. The Diogenes philosophy influenced Zeno, who directed it to Stoicism. ![]() He was also famous for criticizing Alexander the Great directly when he paid a visit to Corinth in the year 336. He lived his life criticizing the famous Plato and his interpretation of Socrates. Diogenes carried the lamp throughout the day, arguing to be looking for a man with integrity. One can see the ceramic jar lodgings together with the lamp on the painting. John William differed with many richly dressed women with Diogenes, who is known to be the creator of cynic philosophy. Severally he spent his days and night in a large ceramic-made pot found within the market as depicted by John Waterhouse in the 1882. ![]() ![]() ![]() What that means is that this is a prime candidate for encapsulation into its own method.
