The shaping of events seems, to a great degree, to be determined by his power, ambition, or caprice. But in the word of God the curtain is drawn aside, and we behold, behind, above, and through all the play and counterplay of human interests and power and passions, the agencies of the all-merciful One, silently, patiently working out the counsels of His own will.” Education, p. 173 Three Key Phrases Dan 2:20-21: Three key phrases reveal the central theme of the book of Daniel: “Daniel answered and said: "Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and might are His. And He [1] changes the times and the seasons; He [2] removes kings and raises up kings; He [3] gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.” The idea of the ‘change’ of times is found in some very interesting places in the book of Daniel. The word basically means that God is in charge of the historical events of nations and individual persons. In Daniel 3:28 we are told that the three young Hebrews changed the king’s word (actually God did). In Daniel 6:8, 17 we are told that the law of the Medes and Persians could not be changed but God changed and overturned it. In Daniel 4, when the king was looking forward to many years of prosperity, God changed his plans and made seven times pass over him before he recovered his sanity. Daniel 7:25 uses the same word to describe the little horn thinking that it could control times. On an individual level the Psalmist exclaimed to God: “My times are in your hand” (Psalm 31:15). Central Theme in Daniel 1 Daniel 1:1, 2: The two sides in the conflict are introduced Two kings: Jehoiakim versus Nebuchadnezzar Two gods: Yahweh versus Marduk Two cities: Babylon versus Jerusalem Two temples: the temple of God versus the temple of Marduk Studies in Daniel | by Pastor Stephen Bohr | visit SecretsUnsealed.org | Page 7 of 459 Two peoples: The Hebrews versus the Babylonians On the surface, Nebuchadnezzar appeared to have the upper hand. He and his god appeared to be more powerful than Jehoiakim and His God. But Daniel 1:1, 2 removes the veil and shows that Nebuchadnezzar prevailed only because God allowed it. It was necessary that Daniel end up in Babylon because God had a very important work for him there: Daniel 1:1,2: “In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and besieged it.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications THE RISE AND FALL OF GRANTLAND A Thesis in Media Studies by Roger Van Scyoc © 2018 Roger Van Scyoc Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts May 2018 The thesis of Roger Van Scyoc was reviewed and approved* by the following: Russell Frank Associate Professor of Journalism Thesis Adviser Ford Risley Professor of Journalism Associate Dean for Undergraduate and Graduate Education Kevin Hagopian Senior Lecturer of Media Studies John Affleck Knight Chair in Sports Journalism and Society Matthew McAllister Professor of Media Studies Chair of Graduate Programs *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT The day before Halloween 2015, ESPN pulled the plug on Grantland. Spooked by slumping revenues and the ghost of its ousted leader Bill Simmons, the multimedia giant axed the sports and pop culture website that helped usher in a new era of digital media. The website, named for sports writing godfather Grantland Rice, channeled the prestige of a bygone era while crystallizing the nature of its own time. Grantland’s writers infused their pieces with spry commentary, unabashed passion and droll humor. Most importantly, they knew what they were writing about. From its birth in June 2011, Grantland quickly became a hub for educated sports consumption. Grantland’s pieces entertained and edified. Often vaulting over 1,000 words, they also skewed toward a more affluent and more educated audience. The internet promoted shifts and schisms by its very nature. Popular with millennials, Grantland filled a certain niche.

  • The Profits of Religion
    Taken from Project Gutenberg: http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/gutbook/lookup?num=1558 THE PROFITS OF RELIGION An Essay in Economic Interpretation By UPTON SINCLAIR The Profits of Religion OFFERTORY This book is a study of Supernaturalism from a new point of view--as a Source of Income and a Shield to Privilege. I have searched the libraries through, and no one has done it before. If you read it, you will see that it needed to be done. It has meant twenty-five years of thought and a year of investigation. It contains the facts. I publish the book myself, so that it may be available at the lowest possible price. I am giving my time and energy, in return for one thing which you may give me--the joy of speaking a true word and getting it heard. The present volume is the first of a series, which will do for Education, Journalism and Literature what has here been done for the Church: the four volumes making a work of revolutionary criticism, an Economic Interpretation of Culture under the general title of "The Dead Hand."

  • THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY of AMERICA the Canonical Form Of
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA The Canonical Form of Marriage in Latin Law and in Oriental Law: A Comparative Study With References to the Application of Catholic-Byzantine Law to Selected Pastoral Concerns In Eastern Europe. A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Canon Law Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Canon Law © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Benone Farcas Washington, D.C. 2010 The Canonical Form of Marriage in Latin Law and in Oriental Law: A Comparative Study With References to the Application of Catholic-Byzantine Law to Selected Pastoral Concerns In Eastern Europe. Benone Farcas, J.C.D. Director: John Beal, J.C.D. Book IV of the 1983 Code of Canon Law, title VII, chapter V and the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches, title XVI, chapter VII, article VI govern the canonical form of marriage. In many ways the provisions of the two codes are similar; in some instances, however, they differ. Both the similarities and the differences have pastoral consequences, especially in cases of mixed marriages or in territories where a hierarchical organization of various Oriental Catholic churches sui iuris does not exist. The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the canonical form of marriage by comparing the Latin and Oriental canonical legislations and analyzing the pastoral consequences that arise when laws concerning canonical form of marriage are applied in specific areas, especially in light of recent political and social changes in Eastern Europe. This comparative study of the canonical form of the marriage in the Latin and in the Catholic Oriental law, especially within the Byzantine rite, begins with an historical overview of the issue in both the Latin and the Byzantine traditions focused on specific documents and circumstances that had a significant impact on the evolution of canonical form.
