- Sources tell The Daily Caller several FBI agents want congressional subpoenas to testify about the agency’s problems.
- The sources claim there is a demand within the agency to prosecute former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe. They also say the bureau has become totally politicized.
- The subpoenas are desired by the FBI agents because potential government whistleblowers fear that legal retaliation from the bureau could financially ruin them through attorneys’ fees.
Many agents in the FBI want Congress to subpoena them so they can reveal problems caused by former FBI Director James Comey and former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe, three people in direct contact with active field agents tell TheDC.
“There are agents all over this country who love the bureau and are sickened by [James] Comey’s behavior and [Andrew] McCabe and [Eric] Holder and [Loretta] Lynch and the thugs like [John] Brennan–who despise the fact that the bureau was used as a tool of political intelligence by the Obama administration thugs,” former federal prosecutor Joe DiGenova told The Daily Caller Tuesday. “They are just waiting for a chance to come forward and testify.”
Ahead of the release of the Department of Justice (DOJ) inspector general report on how the FBI handled the Clinton email investigation, TheDC spoke with DiGenova, a former Trump official who maintained contact with rank and file FBI agents and a counter-intelligence consultant who conducted an interview with an active special agent of the FBI’s Washington Field Office (WFO). (RELATED: Justice Department Watchdog Releases Damning Andrew McCabe Report)
TheDC independently confirmed the veracity of the consultant’s position and access, and reviewed detailed transcripts of his Q&A with the special agent, who requested the arrangement due to internal dragnets and fear of vicious retribution.
These agents prefer to be subpoenaed to becoming an official government whistleblower, since they fear political and professional backlash, the former Trump administration official explained to TheDC.
The subpoena is preferred, he said, “because when you are subpoenaed, Congress then pays…for your legal counsel and the subpoena protects [the agent] from any organizational retaliation…. they are on their own as whistleblowers, they get no legal protection and there will be organizational retaliation against them.”
DiGenova — who along with his wife, Victoria Toensing, has represented government whistleblowers in the past — agreed, telling TheDC, “It’s an intelligent approach to the situation given the vindictive nature of the bureau under Comey and McCabe. I have no idea how to read Chris Wray, who is not a leader and who has disappeared from the public eye during this entire crisis. You know, he may be cleaning house but if he’s doing so, he’s doing it very quietly.”
He added, “I don’t blame them. I don’t blame the agents one bit. I think that the FBI is in a freefall. James Comey has destroyed the institution he claims to love. And it is beyond a doubt that it is going to take a decade to restore public confidence because of Comey and Clapper and Brennan and Obama and Lynch.”
The special agent out of WFO alleged that rank and file FBI agents are fed up and desperately want action from the DOJ, according to the transcripts.
“Every special agent I have spoken to in the Washington Field Office wants to see McCabe prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. They feel the same way about Comey,“ the special agent said, according to transcripts provided to TheDC. (RELATED: Report: FBI Recommends Firing Andrew McCabe)
“The administrations are so politicized that any time a Special Agent comes forward as a whistleblower, they can expect to be thrown under the bus by leadership. Go against the Muslim Brotherhood, you’re crushed. Go against the Clintons, you’re crushed. The FBI has long been politicized to the detriment of national security and law enforcement.”
The special agent added, “Activity that Congress is investigating is being stonewalled by leadership and rank-and-file FBI employees in the periphery are just doing their jobs. All Congress needs to do is subpoena involved personnel and they will tell you what they know. These are honest people. Leadership cannot stop anyone from responding to a subpoena. Those subpoenaed also get legal counsel provided by the government to represent them.”
The former Trump administration official explained the problems at the bureau go beyond just two people.
“They know that it wasn’t just Comey and McCabe in this case. That’s too narrow a net to cast over these guys. There’s a much broader corruption that seeped into the seventh floor at the bureau.” (RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: FBI Agents Say Comey ‘Stood In The Way’ Of Clinton Email Investigation)
“They ruined the credibility of the bureau and the technical ability of the bureau, so systemically, over the past several years, they’re worried about their organizational reputation and their professional careers,” this former Trump administration staffer said, noting the bureau’s difficulty in prosecuting cases these days.
“They go to court and they’re just laughed at.”
According to an analysis in Time Magazine earlier this month, the FBI has struggled with conviction rates for several years now after they send cases to the DOJ for prosecution. In less than half the cases the FBI sent to the Justice Department, the conviction rate was only 47 percent in 2017. This number is far below the mean of the 72 percent average for all other government agencies, according to Time.
In the meantime, DiGenova and the others who spoke to TheDC believe it is time for Congress to issue subpoenas to FBI agents who are willing to talk. According to DiGenova, the House and Senate Judiciary Committees can issue these subpoenas.
“Either one of those [committees] would be fine. I’m sure the committees could hold hearings in a New York minute,” he said.
He added, “I can assure you I’ve been approached by agents who want to be subpoenaed for the same reason the guys in the field,” adding, “All over this country there are agents but the big ones the ones that matter New York–Washington I can assure you I’ve spoken with agents who want to come forward.”

DISCriminate is a two disc collection of Douglas P.'s personal favorite Death In June tracks. It's also a great primer on the group's lengthy and interesting career. With tracks culled from DIJ releases from 1982 to 1996, it shows the complete range of Death In June's catalog. Perhaps you've always wanted to check Death In June out but were intimidated by the many releases. Well fret no more. I'm in your corner.

A damn fine collection.
one of my favorite bands...but i dont have this, thanks.
You've got good taste.....Troy
No doubt about it........
Intimidated? Well, not really, just not sure. Will check these and see what the verdict is. Thanks!
Thanks, you are right in the third sentence from the end. Will check this out.
The better/rarer version of Fall Apart with Rose McGowan is on this.
Royal Oak, MI
gives me a leg up
just what I needed, haven't listened to DIJ for years, perfect re-introduction...
Are you sure that isn't Rose McDowell?
Ah, haha, yep, McDowall. But I'd accept McGowan as well. :)
I think i would pay to see Rose McGowan sing with Douglas P. If Juliette Lewis can grace a prodigy album.. then little miss doom generation could step up to the mic.
Thanks once again....
Thanks! A great introduction to a pretty daunting discography...
I happened to stumble upon this while looking at older posts. Basically a "best of collection" but also a good point to start for someone not familiar with DI6. DI6 transcends the music, the sounds and the images to make masterpieces. If you're into neo-pagan/folk music whether it's acoustic driven or beat driven then you should check out a fairly new band from New York named Cult of Youth. They have an LP out right now called "A Stick to Bind, A Seed to Grow" really great, musically and visually. Comes in a foil stamped gatefold LP.

A word from our customers
After integrating VRF systems for 20+ years, the method I choose again is through CoolMasterNet. It simplifies the communication to a complex HVAC system, and it allows to control it locally via a home automation system (Crestron, Savant, etc.) and remotely for diagnostics purposes. We rely on CoolAutomation solutions in high-end residential projects installed by the top-notch HVAC contractors in New York City. The solution never fails!
Sal Navaro, Technical Director
We have been using CoolAutomation's CoolMasterNet solution for more than a decade. Without CoolMasterNet, HVAC integration was not efficient and time-consuming. Each HVAC manufacturer has its own protocol, so we had to understand each one and create a separate module for each brand. We also used different adapters. Sometimes they worked, sometimes not. Once we started using CoolMasterNet, everything became easier, simpler, and faster. All we need to do is connect the HVAC to CoolMasterNet, and to the Home Automation controller - and the HVAC is integrated in no time.
Sergey Staroseletski, Integrator
From a service manager's position, having the ability to remotely monitor and diagnose is a real benefit for our company and our clients. It both saves time and money, and best of all - ensures minimal downtime, compared to traditional diagnostic methods. The GUI is fantastic, making for easy diagnostics and having the ability to sort data accordingly.
Josh Morgan, Service Manager
Using CoolAutomation has saved us countless hours of call outs and labor, minimizing time by utilizing their unique cloud-based solution. By diagnosing the Daikin VRV equipment remotely and efficiently, senior technicians ensure minimal equipment downtime. We can set schedules, restrict wall controller operation, set auto heat/cool logic, change over rules and monitor real-time energy consumption. Using these control strategies has already reduced energy and maintenance costs and presumably increased equipment lifespan.

Today is January 4, 2017.
I’ve seen more people out jogging than usual. My Facebook feed is full of “New Year, New You” stuff—whole 30, exercise tracking, etcetera. (For tips on goal-setting, click here). I haven’t seen much on Bible reading plans or daily prayer, but I realize such things are of a more personal nature. Nobody wants to be perceived as boastful; none of us want to be grouped with those self-righteous Pharisees…
However, as Christians, our lifelong goal should include growing closer to God and endeavoring to love others as Christ loved us. To achieve these broad goals, the training of the mind is essential.
I’m going to share two of my 2017 goals with you and I hope they enhance your own endeavors.
Note: These goals are not made so I can check some self-righteous box; I make these little goals to help me in the larger, more nebulous aims—to know the Lord, to be more like Christ, to renew my mind. As humans we love to talk of doing grand things, but we don’t always reach for them with deliberation. These are just baby steps… little leaps toward a larger purpose.
Goal#1: Spend a minimum of 10 minutes each day writing what I have learned from the Bible.
For the past two years, much of my daily reading has consisted of listening to the Bible. Since I tend to be a speed-reader, I would often miss details in my reading because I would inevitably find myself skimming ahead to my favorite parts. Listening slowed me down. It took me about eighteen months (give or take) to go from Genesis to Revelation. It shouldn’t have taken quite so long, but I would listen to certain books or chapters multiple times because I found them confusing or because I wanted to meditate on what was being said. I loved it. When I completed Revelation, I tried a “plan” and found myself frustrated. I couldn’t meditate because I kept falling behind.
Please do not misunderstand me—plans are valuable. My spouse just started one. Each of us learns and retains information in different ways. The crux of all this is to discover how you can daily read God’s word and dig in with all your energy. We read to become educated. We read to be transformed. We read to know the Lord.
Find what works for you and devote yourself to it.
In mid-October, I began working my way through Romans with one goal—to see what it taught me about God. I moved on to First and Second Corinthians. I listened to each book multiple times, but I didn’t always have time to write down my observations.
The goal for 2017: set aside 10 minutes each day to review the passages I’ve listened to and write down what it teaches me about God and/or any pertinent lessons.
If you’re curious, I started in Genesis again. I’m team-teaching the second and third-graders this quarter and we are studying—you guessed it—Genesis. It will likely take me all three months to hash my way through Genesis, but as long as I’m doing it every single day, I will be meeting my goal. I am also beginning my daily readings with a Proverb corresponding to the day of the week and a Psalm. I’ll be writing my observations on those as well. I hope to have read through Proverbs twelve times by the end of the year, and Psalms about two and a half.
Goal #2: Memorize Chapters.
If you’ve been here awhile, you know this was my goal last year.
I bombed it.
I renewed my efforts mid-year, I tried listening to it multiple times, writing down chunks, but I fell far short of my goal.
It was one of two goals last year that remained incomplete. I could make excuses about why I failed, but truthfully, I just didn’t make it a high enough priority. I did successfully memorize Hebrews 12.1-6, but I never made it to the end of the chapter.
Goal for January-February: Hebrews 12
Other chapters I’m interested in memorizing:
I’d like to memorize all six, but in light of my experience last year, I’m aiming for three. If I get three done, I’ll go for four and so on. My strategy will be the same, write them down, and enlist my kids and my spouse to quiz me regularly. For more tips on memorization, check out 5 Benefits of memorizing scripture (and 4 ways to do it!)
What are your plans for growing ever closer to the Lord in 2017?

Commitment is something that has always baffled many people. Why is that some people remain strongly committed to their spouse or their friend, while others are quite freak and change their loyalty very often and at slightest pretext? Isn't it amazing that some people are ready to sacrifice everything that they have-even their own lives-because of their commitment to one single individual?
In this article, we will talk about a number of reasons why some people are more or less committed to their spouse others.
One explanation, of course, was hereditary predisposition. Hasse Walum, a biologist at the Karolinska Institute, Sweden, researched 552 sets of twins to learn more about a gene linked to body regulation of brain chemical vasopressin, a bonding hormone.
Over all, men who carried a variation in the gene were less likely to be married and of those who had the variation but had wed were more likely to have had serious marital problems and unhappy wives. Among men who carried two copies of the gene variant, about a third had experienced a serious relationship crisis in the past year, double the number seen in the men who did not carry the variant.
Genetic predisposition can be one of the origins of all (or much of human behavior), but it is well understood that learning concepts (classical and operating conditioning) may be used very successfully to teach the brain to increase or decrease the release of some hormones in order to bring about the necessary behavioral improvements.
A second possibility was studied by John Lydon, a psychologist at McGill University, Montreal, has looked at how people in a commit- ted relationship react in the face of temptation.
In one study, subjects were asked to rate the attractiveness of people of opposite sex people. When they knew people were interested in meeting them, they rated them less attractive. The more committed to your spouse you are, the less attractive you find people who threaten your relationship, Lydon says. In another McGill study, attractive actors or actresses were brought in to flirt with study participants in a waiting room. Later, the participants were asked questions about their relationships, particularly how they would respond to a partner's bad behavior, like being late and forgetting to call.
Men who had just been flirting were less forgiving of the hypothetical bad behavior, suggesting that the attractive actress had momentarily chipped away at their commitment. But women who had been flirting were more likely to be forgiving and to make excuses for the man, suggesting that their earlier flirting had triggered a protective response when discussing their relationship.
A concept which was called "Self-expansion" by Arthur Aron-which means that one's level of commitment may depend on how much a partner enhances one's life and broadens one's horizons. Aron et al found that couple's level of commitment increased after they were made to engage in exciting and challenging tasks and completed them successfully in comparison to those who either performed simple tasks of performed challenging and exciting tasks without success.
Thus, it is always advisable to engage in exciting activities with your partner. You have to regularly get away from work and life's boring tasks to go to some new locations, have some exciting experience with your partner.
Commitment is not something that is inherently genetic. It is learnt. It has environmental factors as an important source of itself.

17.5 miles of hiking • 4500' elevation gain •
Actually hiked 12/31, but a bug on WH won't include NYE hikes in 2017 stats. :-/
Original idea was to climb Table Mountain, again. Would've been sixth time up there, this year. But some pretty wicked winds, and clouds shrouding the summit, convinced us there wasn't much point. So, instead, we turned west/left at the PCT/Westway junction, and wandered ridges over to Cedar Mountain. Found a nice, wind-sheltered meadow to enjoy a bit of lunch, before completing the descent. The "bridge" over Cedar Creek is in fine form now, thanks to some new shingles on the boards! Went up to Aldrich Butte, finally, before returning to Bonneville trailhead and enjoying the final sunset of 2017 from the PCT.

MOSCOW, April 02. /ITAR-TASS/. The volume of funding in the project of building a bridge across the Kerch Strait may make 100 billion rubles (around $2.8 billion) and may even exceed this sum, if an option of two railway tracks on the bridge is chosen, Russian Transport Minister Maxim Sokolov told ITAR-TASS on Wednesday.
“The volume of funding will obviously exceed already planned 50 billion rubles (around $1.4 billion), because only a motor bridge was planned. As a new task (a bridge should be motor and railway) is set that, according to our estimates, will cost at least 80-85 billion rubles ($2.2-2.4 billion). If a two-way railway is planned, probably this sum will get quite closely to or will even surpass 100 billion rubles,” Sokolov said.
“This is explainable, because we did not build such long bridges starting from five kilometers and a bridge of ten kilometers long,” he said.

Once the mainstream media gets hold of a titillating catfight narrative, there is no prying them off it, it seems. In Tuesday's New Hampshire Democratic primary, Bernie Sanders won the majority of female voters, at 55 percent, and you could practically hear the drool hitting the page. "Clinton Falters With Women in New Hampshire Amid Gender War" reads the headline at NBC News. Young women's high support for Sanders is of special interest. You'd think this was a story about a nubile mistress making a grab for her man while shoving the first wife out of the way, instead of a story about something as unsexy as voting.
The reality is far more mundane. The majority of women voted for Sanders because the majority of people voted for Sanders, and as hard as it is to guess from most media coverage, women are not actually a separate species from men with dramatically different motivations and desires.
In fact, men voted in even higher numbers for Sanders than women — 66 percent— but you're not seeing a lot of headlines questioning why men are rejecting the female candidate. Perhaps it's because men are seen as a baseline and women are a deviation. Or maybe it's because men are just expected to reject women seeking power, a depressing thought indeed. Considering that more men than women voted for Sanders, there's more of an argument made to be that gender identity was a factor there, which strikes me as a far more interesting story than wondering, once again, why women keep voting like they were complex people with complex motivations, just like men are.
There's no reason to think the Sanders pitch to voters, which involves free college and single-payer health care and a broad attack on Wall Street, would somehow resonate less with women than it does men. On the contrary, Pew Research shows that women are more likely than men to endorse what Sanders describes as "socialist" ideals. Considering that men are less socialist than women, the real question here is not why Sanders appeals to women, but why he appeals even more to men, when the opposite, simply based on policy preferences, is what you'd expect.
Sanders was expected to win the New Hampshire primary in no small part because his image as an iconoclast who is eager to embrace words like "socialist" and condemn others as "establishment" fits right in with the political culture of New Hampshire, where voters often like to think of themselves as independent-minded sorts. There's zero reason to think women are somehow dramatically different from male voters in New Hampshire on this front.
Similarly, there's no reason, snark on Twitter about "vagina voters" aside, to believe that Clinton won the majority of female voters in Iowa just because she's a woman. Clinton's argument that she's a progressive who "gets things done" has an appeal beyond gender. Women, just like men, have health care concerns and job concerns and Clinton's promise to protect the gains made under Obama is going to resonate on that level with female voters.
The myth that women are a unified voting bloc that is hyper-focused on gender issues at the expense of all other concerns just keeps persisting, like a sexist vampire, even though every election cycle shows, yet again, that women are a diverse group and that many of them, gasp, don't even support women's rights.
In the 2012 election, Barack Obama, the pro-choice and pro-equality candidate, won the majority of female voters, but it was quickly revealed that he lost certain prominent subsections of the women's vote. Romney actually won the majority of white female voters and the majority of married female voters. As Dante Chinni pointed out in the Atlantic in 2012, the margins were not significantly different from 2008, even though Republicans had spent the first term of Obama's presidency waging an all-out war on women, attacking not just abortion rights but contraception access.
The reason this doesn't move the needle much is, in part, because a whole bunch of women are anti-choice. They don't vote for anti-choice Republicans despite their views on this issue, but often because of them. Hell, it was a woman at that Trump rally who yelled the word "pussy" to describe Ted Cruz, a word Trump then gleefully repeated.
Obviously, both Sanders and Clinton are not just pro-choice but back nearly identically pro-feminist platforms, and there's no reason to think that their female supporters (or male supporters, for that matter) disagree. But if you can't get women, as a class, to vote together for their own rights, there's definitely no reason to think they'll form into a coherent voting bloc for less pressing concerns on the "women's issue" slate.
Because men are treated like the norm and women like a deviation, it becomes easy to fall into this trap of thinking that individual women are women first and people second. But that's not actually how women experience their own lives. Like men, women are a hodgepodge of identities and beliefs —race, geography, class, family, political party, pet preferences, musical tastes, sleep number, whatever— and those things all come out in the mix when making voting choices. A woman is just as likely to think, "As a college student, I like the idea of free tuition" as she is to think, "As a woman, I like the idea of a female President." Indeed, many women have both ideas bouncing around their heads and felt like they had a hard choice to make between the two.
This is shaping up to be a long primary and certainly election season, for which there will be many stories wondering why women vote the way they do, those mysterious vixens. The answer will be the same, every time: Because they are people, just like men and, like men, they have a diverse set of interests and desires that shape their choices. It's not a very sexy explanation, but it has the benefit of being true.


The use of social indicators in the implementation of area-specific positive discrimination programmes is increasing and is likely to continue to do so. It is important in this context that some of the unintended consequences of their use be appreciated.
It is argued that the concentration on the statistical niceties and technical details of social indicators especially as they are applied to the identification of areas of urban deprivation has been misplaced, and the concern for the ‘arithmetic of woe’ has diverted attention away from some of the more fundamental assumptions underlying their use.
As predominantly used, social indicators have assumed both that a value consensus exists about the nature and parameters of urban deprivation, when in fact this is an issue of value (and political) conflict, and, more specifically, that urban deprivation springs from social pathology. By default, urban deprivation has been assumed to be that which the indicators measure, when in fact they often reflect no more than existing levels of service provision and current social policies.
There is a need for a clear (even if arbitrary) definition of deprivation, and the derivation of indicators from such a definition. In the latter part of the article the author outlines an attempt to do this.

1 And Yahweh said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him:
The election of grace
God purposed to show forth his power that his name might be declared throughout all the earth. This manifestation was not left to the wisdom or pleasure of Moses. The display was to be according to the divine will. The world was overspread with ignorance and superstition, and Pharoah was the autocrat of the age. He was totally ignorant of who the Lord was, and therefore refused to obey Him.
He was "a vessel unto dishonour" -- an idolator under the dominion of the propensities. Had he been left to himself, he would have continued like all other chiefs of the sin-power,
"a vessel of wrath fitted for destruction."
...He that has power over the clay had appointed Israel to be "a vessel unto honour," upon whom it was His sovereign pleasure to have mercy. They were, therefore, "vessels fitted for mercy," whom He had before prepared, that on them He might make known the riches of His glory, both then and in a time to come.
To affect their deliverance then; to punish Pharaoh and his abettors for their tyranny; and to make himself known to the surrounding nations -- He stirred up the Egyptian king to show all that was in his obdurate and relentless nature. Upon this view of the case, He elected Pharaoh and his host to a terrible overthrow; while He elected Israel to become His people in the land of Canaan. Thus
"He had mercy on whom He would have mercy, and whom He would He hardened"
Elpis Israel ii.3.
2 And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am Yahweh.
If Pharaoh had not resisted, the signs could not have been shown for lack of occasion, and the knowledge of Yahweh's existence and power would not have been communicated
in the vivid and unmistakable form
which the purpose of God, at this stage of the earth's history, called for. It called forth such a manifestation of the visible and personally-directed power of God as sufficed to
convince Israel of Yahweh's existence
and spread His fame and name among the nations of the earth. By this, a foundation was laid for the operations of subsequent ages, the interdependence of which with the Egyptian wonders will become manifest to reflection, and be more particularly and clearly apparent in the day of the clear and open vision that will come with Christ, the prophet like unto Moses.
Visible Hand of God Ch 13
16 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against Yahweh your Elohim, and against you.
It is one of the many symptoms of the intellectual confusion of the age that it is fashionable, and quite the acceptable thing, to suggest that this was an ordinary visitation of locusts such as is common in the East at the present day. If people would only think, they would see in a moment how perfectly worthless and insulting to the judgment such a suggestion is.
If it was an ordinary visitation of locusts, why did Pharaoh "send for Moses and Aaron in haste"? What possible connection could there be between Moses and an ordinary visitation of locusts? And why were the ordinary locusts so very discriminating as to ravage the Egyptian districts, and leave the region occupied by the Israelites untouched?
If it be said, "Oh, that is a mere garnishing of the narrative: Pharaoh didn't send for Moses, etc."; then why trouble to explain the locusts at all? If Pharaoh's hasty summons of Moses and Aaron is a fiction, the locusts are likely to be a fiction too. It would be a much more complete manner of getting rid of the plague of locusts, to simply say there were no locusts, than to say they came in an ordinary way.
But then, why offer such explanation at all? Aye, why? It is perfectly gratuitous, perfectly presumptuous, perfectly absurd. There is no ground for it, whatever, except the dogged determination not to believe. The facts compel belief-whether we begin with Christ, who confirms the writings containing the narrative, or study the history of Israel before his time, or consider the inherent character of the whole Mosaic narrative in connection with the appearance of the Jewish nation on the earth.
To say the thing was thus and so otherwise than it is written, without any ground for so saying, except repugnance to what is written, is certainly an extraordinary intellectual performance. Yet this is the performance that many people supposed to be intelligent go through every day. In any other matter, it would be scouted as it deserves. Men seem rational in everything except that which pertains to God. In this direction it is true, whether men like the doctrine or not, that-
"The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked."
"The carnal mind is enmity against God:
it is not subject unto the law of God, neither indeed can be."
Visible Hand of God Ch 13
22 And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:
Nothing was more calculated to oppress the imagination than the prevalence of darkness-especially such a darkness-a "darkness that might be felt." In daylight, men can encourage themselves in any wickedness; but in darkness, from which not even artificial deliverance can be obtained, their high thoughts lose buoyancy, their enterprise is arrested, and general paralysis sets in.
Visible Hand of God Ch 13
25 And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto Yahweh our Elohim.
The Mosaic sacrifices beautifully manifest and teach seven basic principles of approach to God:
1. REPENTANCE, CLEANSING, PURIFICATION. We are unclean from birth by reason of the law of sin in our members, and additionally by our allowing it to move us to sinful action, to rule over us. This is especially illustrated by the purifying Sin and Trespass Offerings.
2. ADORATION, HOMAGE, WORSHIP, SUBMISSION. Humble and abased recognition of the greatness and majesty of God.
3. CONSECRATION, HOLINESS, DEDICATION, DEVOTION. The complete, unreserved giving over of the whole life to God. This is seen especially in the solemn Whole Burnt Offering.
4. THANKSGIVING, GRATITUDE. Recognition of goodness and blessing from God. This is shown in the Drink Offering of wine.
5. SUPPLICATION, ENTREATY, DEPENDENCE, NEED. Seen especially in the sweet incense of prayer.
6. OBLIGATION, RESPONSIBILITY, DUTY, LABOUR, SERVICE. Seen particularly in the Meat (more correctly, Meal) Offering -- the fruit of the ground and of man's daily toil.
7. COVENANT-RELATIONSHIP, FELLOWSHIP, COMMUNION. Entrance into the divine family --especially manifested in the joyful Peace Offering, the only one of which the offerer himself partook.
A primary requirement of the sacrifices is that the offerer must bring them "with his own hands." There could be no substitutes. The rich could not pay to have someone do it for them. An earnest friend or parent could not do it for one who was lax. Each must do it himself in person. All stood equally before God, and each must do his required part.
The clear lesson for us today is that no one is exempt from the work of the Lord. We dare not leave it to others, no matter how much better qualified they seem to be. Truly the work may take many different forms according to ability and circumstances -- sweeping the hall is as important as lecturing to many 1,000s if that is our best -- but all are required to give their best and most, and to do everything they do "as unto the Lord."
We should never, in any aspect of life, do anything that cannot be done as unto God. This eliminates all useless, unworthy activity, and gives meaning and purpose and holiness and sanctification to life's every necessary task, however humble or ordinary it may be. And it also emphasizes the responsibility to do everything we do to the very best of our power and ability - not because the thing Itself is necessarily important, but because the way we do anything is important to our character. We must live wholly in God: all must be done as unto God: and God requires the very best.
Bro Growcott - Living Sacrifice
28 And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou seest my face thou shalt die.
This was more that Pharaoh's restrained heart could stretch to; his patience snapped here. He ordered Moses out of his presence, declaring he should not see him again, and that if he should dare to present himself, death would be the consequence. Brave but impotent word, O Pharaoh. Thou art in the grip of a higher than Moses. Moses is only a servant-a faithful servant. Moses is able in all calmness to endure the threatening ebullition, and retires.

Pima County, Ariz. — Herminia Frias spent Friday trying to sort out how members of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe in Arizona would be able to safely cast ballots in the upcoming U.S. elections. As a member of the tribe’s council, Frias has made increasing voter participation one of her priorities. Now, she’s trying to do it during a pandemic that has hit Native American populations disproportionately hard and after the reservation lost its only early-voting center.
The early-voting site had been on the tribe’s Tucson-area pueblo, where roughly 4,300 of the federally recognized tribe’s 22,000 members live, from 2010 to 2016. In 2018, the county recorder’s office closed it. The tribe sued, saying that not having early voting on the reservation would curtail members’ ability to vote. Last Thursday, a federal judge ruled it was too close to the November 3 election to reopen it.
Before filing suit, for two years, the Pascua Yaqui had lobbied Pima County Recorder F. Ann Rodriguez to reopen the site. The tribe had the backing of Tucson Mayor Regina Romero and support from the board of supervisors. But, in Pima County, decisions related to early voting are made unilaterally by the recorder, while Election Day is handled by the county’s elections department — a division in authority that Frias said the tribe was not aware of until the site closed.
“It was a learning process for us,” she said. “We had no idea about the scope of the county recorder’s office.”
Rodriguez said turnout at the pueblo’s early-voting site had been too low to keep it open, and that the tribe’s members who live on the reservation, which is roughly two square miles on Tucson’s southwest side, could vote early at an off-reservation library about eight miles away. The Pascua Yaqui argued that their membership skews elderly and, even though their reservation is not contending with the same challenges as tribes on more vast and rural land, it could take hours to get to and from the library voting site; one in five reservation residents do not have a car and must rely on county transit.
Rodriguez, who is retiring at the end of this year, suggested in September that the tribe could operate an Uber-like service to shuttle its members to the early-voting site or vote using Arizona’s long-established vote-by-mail system. Frias said that Rodriguez made the decision predicated on “assumptions that were wrong” about the Pascua Yaqui people and that a “bigger issue, here, is that people don’t trust vote-by-mail.”
Jonathan Diaz, an attorney with the Campaign Legal Center who represented the Pascua Yaqui in the case, said the dispute was “emblematic of the broader struggle for equal access to voting in Native American communities across the country.”
“Native American voters are often left behind, not necessarily maliciously, but Native American voters and communities can be an afterthought,” he said.
After decades of voter suppression, Native Americans vote at lower rates than other groups — roughly 34 percent of voting-age Native Americans, or about 1.2 million people, were not registered in 2018, compared to about 26.5 percent of White people. Native Americans did not gain U.S. citizenship until 1924 and could not vote in Arizona until 1948. It wasn’t until the 1970s that Arizona stopped requiring voters to pass literacy tests and provided translators, compelled by the Voting Rights Act, a 1965 law that outlawed voting practices disparately impacting racial and ethnic minorities.
Language barriers and a lingering distrust of the U.S. government remain today. In addition, geographic isolation on large rural reservations that often do not have paved roads and addresses, lower education levels, lack of reliable internet access and voter ID requirements all depress registration and turnout among Native Americans, according to a 2020 report from the Native American Rights Fund.
Native American voters, as a bloc, have the kind of numbers that can determine the outcome of close state and federal elections. In a campaign to increase voter participation, the National Congress of American Indians points out that Democratic U.S. Sen. John Tester won his 2018 reelection race by just 20,000 votes in Montana, a state that has about 57,000 Native Americans of voting age.
In Arizona, there are about 309,000 Native Americans of voting age spread across at least 22 federally recognized tribes. President Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton there in 2016 by just 91,000 votes. Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema received just 55,900 more votes in her 2018 Senate race than Republican Martha McSally, who was later appointed to finish Sen. John McCain’s term after his death. McSally is in a tight reelection race this year that is one of several that will determine which party controls the Senate.
Some of Arizona’s tribal reservations have been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic, further complicating efforts to get out the vote. The Navajo Nation, for example, has roughly 156,000 members living on a reservation that spans 27,000 square miles across parts of Arizona, New Mexico and Utah. As of Tuesday, it had 575 confirmed COVID-19 deaths, giving the reservation a higher per capita death rate than any single U.S. state — and cases are on the uptick again.
A federal appeals court earlier this month refused to allow an extra 10 days past Election Day for ballots from the more than 67,000 Navajo Nation members in Arizona to reach state election officials. State advice for members who have not yet returned a ballot by mail is to vote or drop one off in person.
The Pascua Yaqui and Navajo Nation cases are among a series of legal disputes this year related to Native American voting rights generally and COVID-era voting specifically.
In September, a Montana court struck down a 2018 referendum that restricted how ballots could be collected and submitted, saying there were “costs associated” that were simply “too burdensome” for the Native American communities on the seven reservations there. Also in Montana, earlier this month, the Blackfeet Nation, a tribe with roughly 17,000 enrolled members and 7,000 living on its reservation in Heart Butte, sued Pondera County, which quickly agreed to open a satellite center on tribal land for in-person voter registration, in-person early voting and Election Day voting.
In Alaska, a court ruled in a case brought by the Arctic Village Council and the League of Women Voters that a state mandate that absentee ballots be notarized or signed by a witness would cause “certain and irreparable harm” during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Improving voting access for Native Americans is one reason that Democrat Gabriella Cázares-Kelly, a member of the Tohono O’odham Nation, decided to run for Pima County recorder this year. Tohono O’odham land in Arizona is 4,460 square miles, roughly the size of Connecticut. Many of the 13,000 residents do not have a street address and use one of the 1,900 P.O. boxes on the reservation or share a rural cluster mailbox, which can be in a different precinct or county than where they live.
In 2016, shortly after Trump’s inauguration, Cázares-Kelly helped found Indivisible Tohono, a chapter of Indivisible, the national progressive grassroots advocacy organization. In 2018, she interviewed with the recorder’s office for a tribal outreach position after working within Tohono O’odham institutions for more than a decade. She turned the position down due to its low salary and watched as it remained vacant. Then, Rodriguez announced she would retire. “When I heard she was retiring, I started thinking about educating the next recorder. Very shortly after, I decided I had a duty to at least try,” she said.
Cázares-Kelly, who is expected to win her race against Republican Benny White, said it’s not uncommon to see people leaving the reservation’s only post office with a massive bag of mail that has accumulated over weeks or months. For reservation residents, merely filling in an address on a voter registration form can be fraught. Her address in the community where she grew up, for example, would be something like: “Heading west off Highway 86, turn south on Indian Route 21, drive into the community, turn south at the house with the red fence, drive down the dirt road, take the Y, it’s the house to the left of the big tree.”
Even the name of her childhood community — Pisin’ Mo’o — is spelled Pisinemo by the Arizona Department of Transportation. Sometimes the less common spelling of Pisenemo is used. “People simply didn’t know what to put,” she said of voter registration forms.
In 2016, only about a third of voting-age individuals living on Tohono O’odham Nation land were registered to vote. Indivisible Tohono has worked to “demystify” the process, she said, noting there has been a “drastic change in voting culture” on the reservation. During the 2018 midterm elections, vendors advertised free tacos and sodas for individuals with an “I Voted” sticker. “It was really cool, we’d never really seen that before,” she said.
Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs announced in September that the state’s online voter registration system had been updated to accommodate non-standard addresses like that described by Cázares-Kelly or even latitude and longitude markers. The state secured extra funding during the pandemic to help safely administer elections for residents living on the state’s 20 reservations. Its safe voting guide encouraged reservation residents to register to vote by mail and, if returning ballots by mail, to do so ahead of the recommended October 27 cutoff for the rest of the state. Earlier this week, an early-voting site opened on the Tohono O’odham reservation, which has been largely closed to outsiders since March due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Back on the Pascua Yaqui reservation, Frias said they are putting together “safety kits” of personal protective equipment and hand sanitizer to distribute at the reservation’s Election Day polling location, where the bulk of the 2,300 registered voters there will likely cast ballots. She said the “big media push” within the state to vote early has led to calls from tribal members wanting to know where they can drop off ballots. But Pima County does not have drop boxes like other counties because Rodriguez does not believe they are secure. There are curbside drop-off locations where election officials are present to receive ballots, but none are on the Pascua Yaqui reservation.
Though the judge denied Pascua Yaqui’s request to reinstate the early voting site in time for this year’s election, Diaz said the underlying case, which alleges the removal was a violation of the Voting Rights Act, will move forward. But, since Rodriguez is retiring, there “may be an opportunity for a non-judicial resolution,” he said.
“They’ll get an early voting site eventually and they’ll fight until they do,” said Alex Gulotta, the Arizona director for the voting-access group All Voting is Local, which was also involved in the case.
“For this election, they will not have an early voting site and they’ll have to work together as a community, and that’s going to take more work than it should and it’s going to expose them to more risk of COVID than it should,” he added.
All Voting is Local is one of more than 100 local, state and national organizations that make up the nonpartisan Election Protection coalition. Individuals who encounter barriers to voting on Election Day can dial a coalition hotline staffed by the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law at 1-866-OUR-VOTE. Native Americans who face difficulties casting ballots in Arizona can call 1-888-777-3831.

This is a FanFiction about Wanda and Ian from The Host. Hope you like it! :) I do not own anything related to The Host. I do not write and speak English, so there might be some grammar and spelling faults. Enjoy! And reviews are appreciated :)
"What are you doing here on your own?" She looked at me. "Hi Ian. It's good to see you. I couldn't sleep." she said with the beautiful smile on her face. I smiled back. "Are you tired now then?" I asked. She nodded and leaned against my chest when I wrapped my arms around her. I had her close to me all the way back to our cave room. I lied down and winked at her. "Come here," I whispered. She smiled insecure and looked at the bed Jeb had placed on the other side of my room. "Ok. You just lay down. I have to talk to Jeb." She kissed my cheek and sat on my bed.
"Jeb!" I barked. He looked at me with a confused face. "Yes Ian?" he said. I dragged the gun out of his hand. "What is your problem?" He was confused. "You have to be more clear Ian." he said. I looked at him. "Why is there a bed for Wanda in my room?" I asked and after asking I realised how wrong that sounded. "Didn't you want her to sleep in your room?" I nodded. "I did, but I want her to sleep next to me. In my bed. Not across the room." Jeb smiled. "So let her," he said. I sighted. "It's not that easy. She don't think she can. Because of the other bed. And she wouldn't listen to me, so can't you talk to her?" I begged ham. He smiled. "Shure, but you are a man Ian. Not a boy. You need to have this conversations with your girl on your own. I can talk to her now, but only because I placed the bed in the room." he said. I smiled and nodded. "Of course. Thank you Jeb."
I walked around in the caves for a while when Jeb talked to Wanda. What if she got disgusted when Jeb told her to sleep in my bed? What if she walked away? "Ian? What are you doing here?" A voice quite similar to mine asked. "Hi Kyle. Jeb is talking to Wanda so I went for a walk." Kyle laughed. "Trouble in paradise already?" I smiled. "Not really. What about you and Sunny?" I asked. He smiled. "She is amazing. Who would have thought the O'shea brothers would fall in love with the enemy?" He said. I laughed. "Yeah, not Howe!" I said. Kyle laughed too. "Wanda wants to see you Ian. And Kyle, you, Sunny, Wanda, Ian, Jared and Melanie are taking off tomorrow. We need more food and other supply," he said. Kyle nodded. "Are you sure Sunny is ready to lie to her own people?" I asked. Kyle shrugged his shoulders. "I'll talk to her. But she won't leave my side, so I guess she is," Kyle said. Jeb nodded and walked away. "See you later brother," I said. Kyle smiled and walked away.
"Hi Ian," Wanda said when I came into the room. "Hi, so... Jeb talked to you?" She nodded. "And?" She looked at me and kissed my fingers. "You could have asked. I just had the most imberresing talk with Jeb. Ever! Just so that I should know what you want. I don't have anything against sleeping next too you Ian. So just talk too med, okay?" I nodded and kissed her gently. "You seemed so insecure," I whispered. She kissed me and hugged me so hard that I fell over on the bed. I could feel her warm and soft body against mine. I got warm in the entire body. Some places especially.
She kissed my neck and pulled my t-shirt off. "Wanda," I said. She looked at me and her eyes got filled with tears. "I'm so sorry," she said and blushed. I smiled at her. "You have nothing to apologise! I want you Wanda. So bad, but I don't want to take advantage of you," I said. She smiled. "You wouldn't," she whispered. I kissed her. "Okay, but I don't have the right equipment you know." Wanda looked at me. "What?" I sighted. "If I slept with you, and we didn't use precaution you know..." She kept looking at me. "What are you talking about?" She asked. I grabbed her hand and looked her in the eyes. "You or your body at least, could get pregnant. And I really don't want to raise a baby in this world." Something in Wanda's eyes told me she was thinking back at something else. "Oh..." she mumbled. I smiled. After a while we both fell asleep.
The next morning, I was helping Jared and Kyle, loading the truck. Wanda, Melanie and Sunny were packing some bags with clean clothes. We used one car. And when we got to the trailer, Kyle and Sunny was driving that. Jared drove quick out in the desert. "I feel much safer at home," Sunny whispered. Kyle wrapped his arms around her and kissed her head. "I too baby. Me too. But you are going to be great!" She looked up in his eyes and I could see her whole body relax. She trusted him. Wanda gasped and leaned on my shoulder. Jared hard her and looked at her in the mirror. Remember not too sleep to hard Wanda," he said. She nodded. "I know," she said as I said, "Give her a break." Melanie laughed. "Let her sleep. She didn't get much sleep last night. I could hear her walking around half the night." I kissed her front head. "Just sleep. I'll wake you up if we need you," I said. "I love you..." she whispered before closing her eyes.
"Seekers!" Melanie said, suddenly. We had just pulled up by a motel. I was about to wake Wanda up when Jared told me not to. A seeker came up to the window and Jared opened it. He had his sunglasses on. "Hello sir. What is the problem?" Jared said in a polite way. The seeker smiled. "We just patrol as usual. Looking for human activity you know. Would you mind stepping out of the car?" Jared nodded. "Actually, yes. I would. My two brothers and their girlfriends are really tiered and we just want to sleep. I don't want to wake them up by opening the door," he said. The seeker looked at me and Kyle. Sunny leaned her head on Kyle's shoulder and was really good at pretending to sleep. "Ian? What's going on?" Wanda whispered suddenly and opened her eyes. The seeker didn't hear what she called me. The light from the seekers car reflected in her eyes and she looked down. "That light hurts," she mumbled. I could see the seeker give the other a sign and the car light stopped shining. "Ian? Wake up Blade, would you? He has to wake up Sunny. No one else can deal with her tired temper," Jared said. I laughed a little bit, and woke Kyle up. Jared had used Kyle's cover name Blade when he talked out loud. He gasped and looked at me behind the sunglasses. "Wake her up," I said. He kissed Sunny's head and smiled when she opened her eyes. They shined so bright silver. "Can you show me what you have in the trunk?" The seeker asked. Jared nodded and the seeker walked behind the car. We had two bags in there. They were filled with food from a shop Sunny and Wanda had visited earlier. "Everything seems okay. Have a good night," the seeker said and smiled. "You too sir," Jared said.
"That was scary," Jared said when we sat in the motel room. "I seriously doubted that we would get out of it alive," Kyle said. "What would we do without Wanda and Sunny?" I mumbled. Jared laughed. "Hopefully we never find out." "That's good to hear," Wanda said as she appeared behind me and kissed my neck. I smiled and turned around so that I could kiss her. "You and Sunny drive the trailer tomorrow?" Jared asked Kyle. He nodded and looked at the couch. Sunny looked so peaceful and Kyle smiled. His smile was real and that reminded me of him before we had to run. "What has happened to you Kyle?" I heard my self-asking. He laughed and looked at me. "What do you mean?" I smiled. "You are so different. We can talk to you. Wanda could probably hug you if she wanted. I haven't had a real fight with you in ages!" I said. Jared laughed and I could hear Melanie laugh too. "Is that a bad thing O'Shea?" Wanda whispered in my ear. I smiled. "No, I'm just curious." Kyle lifted Sunny's head and placed it on his lap. "She happened. I know it sounds weird, but I love her. Even if she is the enemy, I love her like a man love a woman." Wanda smiled. "Of course you do. You are a man, and she is a woman," she said. Mel laughed. "Is it even worth it?" She asked me. "Trying to explain that to her? No, it's not," I said. Wanda looked at me. "Explain me what?" I just shake my head and she stopped talking.
I woke up early the next morning and gasped. Jared and Mel where sleeping in a bed near the window. I turner my head and saw Wanda's hair. She was a sleep. It hit me that she was lying with her back against me. I touched her shoulder and she looked at me. "Come here," I whispered and dragged her against my chest. She turned around and rested her head on my shoulder. "Thank you," she whispered. I kissed her and smiled. I love her more than words can tell.
