So stop telling lies. Let us tell our neighbors the truth, for we are all parts of the same body. And “don’t sin by letting anger control you.” Don’t let the sun go down while you are still angry, for anger gives a foothold to the devil.

[Ephesians 4:25-27 NLT]

5 MORE THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:

1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)

2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT)

3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT)

4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT)

5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT)

Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!

this Grubby little town, Black Rock was once a separate entity from Buffalo and there was a fierce competition for terminus of the Erie Canal. Each knew that this would bring a lot of commerce. Buffalo ultimately won and grew massively due to the canal. Eventually Black Rock was absorbed into the City...although it still has its own distinct character. It's a tough place that keeps growing like a weed. I always think of the William Kennedy Book Ironweed ..which was named because the people of Depression-Era Albany hung on like the ironweeds.

Lots of ethnicities came through here. This is what gives it some of its fascinating character...English, Native Americans, Germans, Poles, Irish, Italians, African Americans, Puerto Ricans and Hispanics and most recently South Asians and Middle Easterners. The people who came through were laborers and sailors eking out a living and as such the character has a bit of tough, low brow, toughness to it.

This plaque, which I've never seen before is on an old building near the old Friehgt house and it commemorates the Polish workers and the architect, Casimir Gzwoski, who helped build the interntional RR bridge that crosses from Canada. The railroads almost immediately made the canal obsolete. Even ow trains cross that bridge (I hear them from my living room) many many times a day, back and forth, to and from Canada.

This was apparently put up in 1973.

Garður is a small coastal community on the northern tip of the Reykjanes Peninsula in southwest Iceland. Historically dependent on fishing and seafaring, the village developed around rich fishing grounds and remains closely connected to Iceland’s maritime heritage. Garður is best known for its lighthouses, dramatic Atlantic coastline, and excellent opportunities for birdwatching, particularly during the summer months. Today it forms part of the municipality of Reykjanesbær and is located a short distance from Keflavík and Keflavík International Airport.

The German Reichsarbeitsdienst (RAD), or German Reich Labor Service, was formed in July of 1934 as the official state and party labor service. The RAD was not unique though, as various labor organizations had existed in Germany for many years prior to 1934. During the later 1920’s – a time of great economic hardship in Germany – many political, church, and civic groups organized independent work camps to help provide some form of employment for the many ex-servicemen and the huge numbers of unemployed workers. The work camps were used to supply labor for various civic and agricultural construction duties throughout Germany, and to generally help relieve the strain of high unemployment. Even the fledgling NSDAP formed a number of these sorts of camps.

At the same time that the RAD was officially established in July 1934, it was also divided into separate sections for males and for females. The Reichsarbeitsdienst Manner, or RAD/M, was set up for men, and the Reichsarbeitsdienst der weibliche Jugend, or RAD/wJ, for females.

Good photographic material for historians.

Looking along Old Castle Street. On the pavement in front of me is the proximity where Alice McKenzie was found murdered in the early hours of 17th July 1889.

She had some abdominal mutilations, so I think she may have been a victim of the Ripper, but they weren't as savage as the generally accepted Ripper victims though.

Grindavík is a fishing town on the Reykjanes Peninsula in southwest Iceland. Founded around one of Iceland’s most productive fishing grounds, it developed into an important center for the country's fishing industry and maritime culture. In recent years, Grindavík has gained international attention due to volcanic activity on the Reykjanes Peninsula, which has significantly affected the town and surrounding area. Despite these challenges, Grindavík remains an important part of Iceland’s coastal heritage and a gateway to many of the peninsula’s volcanic and geothermal attractions.

First mentioned in 1349, but possibly older, this castle was home of the knights of Buben (means literally "drum"), and held its name even under other owners. The family sold their first castle around 1378 (they had other castles then), but they use the family name Buben until today. The castle often changed owners together with the surrounding lands, it wasn´t used for living because of its isolated position in the 16th Century, and began to deteriorate but only slowly, because there was nobody around to disassemble the stone for their own use. It was a partial ruin in 1912, when first larger repairs were made by the Czech tourist club. A thorough conservation was done in the 1930ies, but a very unprofessional repair was done in 2010 with modern materials, which destabilized the repaired parts and a bastion completely collapsed in 2013. because the used concrete sucked in too much water and became too heavy for the old wall. Today the ruin is stabilized, well maintained, and a popular tourist stop in western Bohemia.
