Let’s talk time travel.
In BOTW the Sheikah shrines were present, along with thousands of decayed guardians. In TOTK they are replaced with zonai shrines and the guardians and all evidence of them is absent. Zelda…Yada Yada…and the Zonai build the shrines to prep for the eventual future. This creates a whole new timeline, potentially one where the events of the 10,000 year old calamity never happened. This would explain the absence of Shiekah shrines and guardians in TOTK, and the reason why they are never mentioned (although the use of the legs in the towers is interesting). Either way, the events of TOTK most definitely create a new timeline that is different from the one that BOTW happened in since events play out much differently.
However in TOTK, NPCs mentioned that the shrines appeared overnight. If they were members of this new timeline, then the shrines would have been there all their lives since they were built way back in the distant past. Basically this makes zero sense and multiple conflicting things are true at once in the same timeline.
I think the only thing to gleam from this is that the story told in TOTK is entertaining and moving, and it doesn’t need to make sense cause maybe these games are essentially all self-contained. I wish it weren’t true but I suspect it is. After all, if the creators don’t know how the timeline was formed then it may not be a thing that was planned.

Im using a ps4 controller with bluetooth for some games I play, and every 5 minutes the controller decides to turn off and on, and the action I made ingame before it happens keeps going. with some games its fine, but with platformers it's a living hell! (jumping to a platform, and my character keeps going forward, falling into it's death)

The premise I'm coming from - not many seem thrilled about the slew of 'new' characters that are just reskins / re-dos (SL Annihilation, Infinity War Thor, Big Time Spider-Man, etc.). Well good ol' Scoples can only reskin a character model so many times to make it look like a different character, so to me the lazy way out is using costumes as new characters. That combined with things like the Knowhere team making little to no canonical or even MSF story sense, has led me to once again feel like the only real thing they're focused on - character releases - is muddy and boring and forced.
But what really shows is that they care nothing about their game - not quality assurance, fairness (Blue ISO-5 bug anyone?) and certainly not fun. They can't even handle or care about their IP license, the real thing that's kept this game alive.
Knowhere should have had a new character or 2 and reworks (still don't need new character models for that, but oh no it'd be cheaper for the player base!) that had much better synergy with Guradians Vol. 3. Then if you want to force reskins down our throats as new characters and one was going to be a Thor Infinity War and a Spider-Man anyway, how about an Infinity War team there Scoples? Thor, Iron Spider - then yes we don't need another Iron Man OR Cap (but WWII Cap shouldn't be a thing anyway) - a Nanotech Iron Man, Cap Infinity War (with black suit and Wakandan shield) and then take your pick ; a blonde Black Widow, Infinity War skinned Starlord (instead of pointless Annihilation) or Scarlet Witch or Vision or on and on.
Yes it's more glut of repeated characters but you know what - it'd be exciting and make sense and because of that I wouldn't care. They used to piggy back heavily off the MCU, many of their players are fans and it'd damn sure get me grinding. Hell it's a ready made counter potential to your temporarily buffed Black Order in war - oh look more synergy and story sense and reason for Krakens to buy buy buy. Just think a little Scopley - I mean even their laziness is lazy.

Intro

This... was the first time I hit the character limit on a post. Was it always 10,000 characters? I thought it was more like 25,000... Huh, I guess API break coming in many different ways.
Anyways, I had some thought I wanted to append, but I can't, so I'll do so here.
I mean, if this keeps up, I might need to check this into a weekly post. I don't know if I have enough gas to make this weekly, though. We'll see. Maybe during Koshien, I can test a weekly post.

Debut Thoughts Pt. 2

• IdolEN Endless - It was an endless wait, indeed. But considering Aviel's words, having the pre-debut period go from 2 weeks to 5 days was a good move. I think pre-debut should get shorter as your agency matures (HoloX debut was a masterpiece) and idol has matured plenty (not the talents, they did not mature at all). Speaking of maturity, seeing the debut PV reminded me of U149 and I couldn't quite get over my western squick at 'gaggles of young girls in entertainment' thing. ESekai had Rin and Juna, so it had an all-ages appeal, but all of Endless looks like ten. And considering ESekai, they might probably act like ten as well. I mean they seem like fine talents otherwise.

My journey with Mounjaro has been up and down. Since January, I've gone from 363 to 323 or so. While I'm pleased I've had progress, some issues have caused me to not fully "enjoy" or experience the benefits of it, if you will.
1.) Availability: mounjaro hasn't been available or I've had to wait weeks to get a new dose. I'm on a wait list right now at a pharmacy because it is pretty hard to find. Because of that, it leads to
2.) A lack of consistency. If I'm out of shots, that just makes it a bit more challenging.
3.) Insurance companies. These blood sucking nutsacks are terrible. The changes to the protocols for approval were awful. I was once declined for approval because the insurance said I needed a history of showing I used the medicine before. I told them they should have those records because they approved it before. Insurance said that didn't matter and I needed to prove something else. I provided proof and then they moved the needle. My online doctor finally called them and got it approved.
4.) Stress. I work full time, was studying for a certification as well that was a bit of a challenge and just finished a graduate degree, and I have kids under the age of 3. All of that made everything so much harder.
5.) Not being able to consistently workout. This week I've been finally about to do 3 days of strength training. Not being able to physically move like I should has sucked.
Most of these issues are my fault but hopefully things will change now that I have more time and less work, school stress.
The 5.0mg shot was ineffective for me. 7.5 was slightly better. 10 seems to work now so hopefully that'll be good for me.
Just looking for ways to add to the effectiveness of the medicine

Hi friends!
​
Over the past 5-ish years, I've been writing for a very small fandom (< 600 total works on AO3). I wrote several multi-chapter series, and I posted chapters as I wrote them. Most of the authors in this fandom operated the same way. I'm an extensive outliner, so I always know what I'm going to write fully ahead of time. I've never left a story unfinished.
​
In this small fandom, posting as I wrote the chapters was motivating to me. It gave me a sense of accomplishment to post the chapter once completed, and it was fun to see the readers react along my journey of writing the story. Because this fandom did not have many active authors or a lot of fan content, I think they basically would take whatever they could get. And, like I said, most other authors did the same thing so it was more-or-less expected.
​
I am currently writing my first multi-chapter series for a much larger fandom (~ 25,000 total works on AO3). One thing I've noticed anecdotally is that most authors in this fandom post all their chapters within days of each other. It seems they write the entire thing upfront and then post chapters in quick succession over a few days.
​
I chatted with my beta about this because she reads fic from some larger fandoms. She said if I post as I write, I do run the risk of people forgetting what's happening with my story in between postings, and some people won't even read a story unless it's completed.
​
Is there a norm out there or a generally accepted best practice? Or is this one of those things where I should just do whatever I want and ignore what other people think?

God is a trinity
God the father God the son God the holy spirit
God the father:
Genesis 1:26 / Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.
John 14:28 / You have heard Me say to you, ‘I (Jesus) am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, ‘I am going to the Father,’ for My Father is greater than I.
Matthew 24:36 / But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.
God the holy spirit:
Genesis 1:2 / The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
John 14:26 / But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have told you.
John 16:13 / However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.
God the Son:
John 1:2-5 / In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
John 1:14 / And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth
John 8:58 / Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”
Revelation 1:18 / I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.
God is good:
1 Chronicles 16:34 / Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.
God is holy:
Psalm 97:12 / Be glad in the Lord, you righteous ones, And give thanks to His holy name.
God's love:
John 3:16 / For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
God's justice:
2 Corinthians 5:10 / For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.
God is righteous:
Psalm 119:137 / Righteous are You, O Lord, and upright are Your judgments.
How to enter heaven:

1. Believe in the trinity
2. Believe Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross
3. Believe Jesus Christ was raised from the dead 3 days later
4. Do not follow your own desires
5. Put on the armour of God
6. Resist the devil and he will flee
7. Follow God's commandments
8. Repent of your sins
9. Pray to God
10. Ask for forgiveness from God

1 John 2:3-6 / When we obey God, we are sure we know him. But if we claim to know him and don't obey him, we are lying and the truth isn't in our hearts. We truly love God only when we obey him as we should, and then we know we belong to him. If we say we are his, we must follow the example of Christ.
We are all sinners but through Jesus we can find everlasting life.
Repent and turn from your old ways. Sin escalates and gets worse without regret.
Sin is not allowed in heaven so bind and resist sin on earth.
Matthew 18:18 / I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whatever you bind [forbid, declare to be improper and unlawful] on earth shall have [already] been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose [permit, declare lawful] on earth shall have [already] been loosed in heaven.
We can receive forgiveness and mercy for our sins through God the son, Jesus Christ our lord and saviour.
Forgiveness is available to everyone, even those who have made the same mistakes many times. However repentance is needed from you. Jesus will show you the right way but you still have a choice to follow or not.
How to resist the devil:
The armor of God represents the defense we must take in our spiritual lives. The Bible tells us that we are fighting a war against Satan, who seeks to destroy us. Therefore, we must take action and put on God's armor. As Christians, it is important for us to understand the severity of this battle.
Armor of God

1. the belt of truth - honesty
2. the breastplate of righteousness - do the right thing
3. the shoes of the gospel of peace - remain calm and collected
4. the shield of faith - trust God
5. the helmet of salvation - accept Jesus Christ is my lord and savior.
6. The sword of the Spirit - use and know the word of God

GOOD FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT:
Galatians 5:22-23 / But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
Matthew 6:14 / For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you don't forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Luke 6:36-38 / Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful. “Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.
Matthew 22:37-39 / Jesus says, “You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
1 Peter 4:8 / And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins
John 14:21 / Whoever has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me. The one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him.”
SINS:
The 10 Commandments:

1. You shall have no other God's before me.
2. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven images.
3. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath day and keep it Holy.
5. Honor your father and mother.
6. Thou shalt not kill.
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
8. Thou shalt not steal.
9. Thou shall not bear false witness.
10. You shall not covet.

The seven deadly sins are:

1. lust
2. gluttony
3. greed
4. laziness
5. wrath
6. envy
7. pride

Proverbs 6:16-19 / These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
Matthew 5:27-28 / You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
James 4:17 / So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin
Colossians 3:5-6 / Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. On account of these the wrath of God is coming.
Galatians 5:19-21 / Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity (hostility), strife (conflict), jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions (disagreement), divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Galatians 5:19-21 / Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality (sexual pleasure), idolatry, sorcery, enmity (hostility), strife (conflict), jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions (disagreements), divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Any miracles done that is not from God is from the devil. The devil is deceitful and will hide his sorcery in false doctrines. Do not be deceived and be led astray because this is done by the devil to hide the truth.
1 John 3:15 / Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.
CONSEQUENCES OF SIN:
James 1:12-16 / Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him. Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and SIN WHEN IT IS FULLY GROWN BRINGS FORTH DEATH. Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers
Hebrews 3:12-14 / Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an EVIL, unbelieving heart, LEADING YOU TO FALL AWAY FROM THE LIVING GOD. But exhort (strongly encourage) one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be HARDENED BY THE DECEITFULNESS OF SIN. For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end.
1 Peter 3:12 / For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.
Matthew 5:30 / And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.
Proverbs 9:10 - The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
SAVED BY FAITH:
Matthew 7:21-23 / Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!’
Ephesians 2:8 -10 = For by grace you are saved through faith, and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God; not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are his workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus for good works that God prepared beforehand SO WE MAY DO THEM.
James 2:17 = So too, faith by itself, if it does not result in action, is dead
James 2:21-22 / Was not our father Abraham justified by what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his faith was working with his actions, and his faith was perfected by what he did.
My conclusion on faith:
We are saved by faith in the trinity. Works are there to strengthen your faith. Sin weakens your faith until it dies.
Reasons for evil:
Isaiah 45:7 / I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the Lord, do all these things
You have free will to choose to be good or evil. God allows you to choose even if he knows what you will choose. If he doesn't allow evil people to exist he cannot give free will to man or he cannot let man be created. If man has no free will then we can no longer call ourselves human being as we would be something else. If we are not created by God he cannot save his lost sheep born into a world of good and evil where the ground is cured and weeds grow amongst the wheat.
Hell was created for the fallen angels but also because evil people exist. Evil people cannot escape justice so God created a place of torment for them. This place is for people who disobey God and refuse to serve him.
Matthew 13: 37-39 / He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
God needs cursed ground to sow the seeds of sinners. God has rules which he also follows, he does not just do as he wants. The devil can sow his own seeds as well. The devil's seeds/children can also be saved.
Zechariah 3 1-4 = Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right side to accuse him. The LORD said to Satan, "The LORD rebuke you, Satan! The LORD, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this man a burning stick snatched from the fire?" Now Joshua was dressed in filthy clothes as he stood before the angel. The angel said to those who were standing before him, "Take off his filthy clothes." Then he said to Joshua, "See, I have taken away your sin, and I will put rich garments on you."
The devil is making mistakes as you can see from the verse above. Weeds can also be saved.
These sinners can be saved by faith in God the son. We are all black sheep which God is coming to find.
The reason for life:
You have free will but God also told you not to sin. Therefore you can ignore God's will and do as you please or you can obey God and do his will.
When you die or come to the end of your life on earth God will tell you who you are. Only God can define you. God loves you and wants to bless you too. Your blessings depends on what you did during your life on earth.
The bible is God's word.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 / All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

For context: I am based on the US, ride dressage and work with a trainer who has imported numerous horses, so I was pretty well prepped on what to expect. Nothing was bad or crazy about this experience, I just feel like this might help others out there.
Finding an agent: Most likely if you are working with an experienced trainer, they will have contact info for an agent in Europe. If not, always ask how the agent is compensated. Some go on % of the price you pay on the horse, but others go on a fixed cost model (fee + travel expenses like hotels, food, rental car). Personally, I prefer the fixed cost model, but to each their own. Make sure you are clear with the agent about your price range and know that they typically work in euros - so if your budget is in USD or your local currency, do yourself a favor and make the conversion ahead of time. Also remember that that conversion changes regularly and, when you're talking in 5-6 figure budgets, you will notice those differences. Also be clear about any deal breakers. If you are staying in one general area, you probably need 4 days or so. Give yourself more time than you think you need (explained in etiquette section)
Booking the trip: Chances are, if you want to be able to view video ahead of your trip, you will not get a long lead time between booking and going. Obviously flights can be cheaper if you book well ahead of time, but sellers can only hold horses for so long. Some are quite accommodating and will hold for a week or 2, but remember that this is an inherent cost on their end. Also, when it comes to hotels and such, trust that your agent knows the best places to stay. A good agent will know small, nearby places that are typically less expensive and closer to the barns.
Etiquette: Shopping in Europe is quite differently paced than shopping in the US. For example, when you arrive, they will typically sit you down and have some coffee, maybe tell you about the stables, etc. It's friendly, welcoming and shouldn't be rushed through - even if you are dead-set on seeing a lot of horses on your trip. Great barns want to know that their horses are going to the right homes. When it comes to trying the horse, however, the timing aspect is sort of reversed. The moment you know this is not the horse for you, even if you haven't gotten on, you can say that you would like to pass. They will be glad you haven't wasted their time and will not be annoyed (I tend to find that such a terse interaction in the US would be considered rude - that doesn't apply at these barns that are getting in people regularly from around the world). Just as an aside, the horses will always be fully braided and turned out as if they are headed to a show. I honestly think that that presentation (and the offering of a drink or coffee) are very inexpensive ways that US sellers could heighten their game. But I digress.
Vetting: At least in Germany, it is federal law that the seller provide a standard set of 18 x-rays at their expense. I think it's feet (not skyline view), hocks, and stifles. Any additional x-rays can be purchased at your cost and they are generally quite a bit cheaper than in the US (because vets are doing x-rays regularly). So, for example, I added back and neck and the clinic charged me 250 euro. I vetted 2 horses and the sellers actually paid for both clinical vettings because, by their explanation, I was the first to vet both horses and it was easier for them to pay for it and then own the vetting if I decided to pass so they could keep it on file. (Obviously I was given the reports first so it's not like I had to get the reports through the sellers and worry about tampering or whatever)
Price negotiations: Aside from a language barrier and having a guide through the country, this is where a good agent can be key. This is a lot like it is in the US (prices can change based on vet findings, etc), but having a native speaker is very helpful. Also be aware (if this matters to you) if the seller works on a "coupon system". Essentially, some really big sale barns will tell you "if you don't like the horse, you can exchange it for another of equal value in such and such length of time". I'm honestly not sure if I find this good or bad, it's just sort of how it works. These barns have so many horses, it becomes easier to basically give you "store credit" to buy a different horse than give back your money. Oh, because I forgot to mention: European laws protect the consumer far more than the US (which does basically nothing in the case of horses). You have 2 years to return a horse, even if the horse was properly represented and it just didn't work out.
Import: Depending on where you fly into, it's safe to say that you will need to allocate $7500-$12k to import. Geldings only require 2-3 days of quarantine (depending on the time it takes to get bloodwork done), so that is why they are the most popular for import. Mares have to stay in quarantine for 3 weeks (I think that's right? Feel free to correct me anyone who has experience with this). If you are importing a stallion, I believe they are also 3 weeks AND they are required to breed to 2 mares during that time (it's flushed, no foal) to ensure they don't have equine STD's. Obviously since this is quite a hassle, only certain quarantine barns will accept stallions and I'm sure the import cost is far beyond what I have estimated above. Also, a pallet of horses (yup, they call them pallets) has 3 stalls and they will not fly the horses if the pallet is not filled. (Yeah, no extra leg room situations)
Ok, this was pretty long, but I'm sure I've missed something. If anyone has questions, please ask! I hope this was interesting and/or helpful.

I've used the tool for locating a Blood Cancer Center of Excellence and found 2 in Colorado. However, neither have a multiple myeloma specialist. I cannot figure out how to find one. The centers seem to be easily found using the tool. But that doesn't help with finding the MM specialist.
I went to my first appointment with the Denver Blood Cancer Institute this week. I live in Central Wyoming so it's a 5 hour drive there and back. I wasn't impressed and have little confidence in the provider who met with us. I agree with the assessment (IgA Mugus) however so it's not that I was looking for more or less. It's his inability to listen and how difficult it is to navigate the place. It almost looked like they were nott even open for business - sort of creepy! So really trying to get this right from the start so I can follow with someone over time. Thanks for reading 🌷

(Passage of Philemon, only a single page)
I appeal to you to show kindness to my child, Onesimus. I became his father in the faith while here in prison. Onesimus hasn't been of much use to you in the past, but now he is very useful to both of us. I am sending him back to you, and with him comes my own heart.
I wanted to keep him here with me while I am in these chains for preaching the Good News, and he would have helped me on your behalf. But I didn't want to do anything without your consent. I wanted you to help because you were willing, not because you were forced. It seems you lost Onesimus for a little while so that you could have him back forever. He is no longer like a slave to you. He is more than a slave, for he is a beloved brother, especially to me. Now he will mean much more to you, both as a man and as a brother in the Lord.
​
˜”*°•.˜”*°• Jesus Christ Saves •°*”˜.•°*”˜
​
Onesiums was once a slave, who was treated worse than dirt, this was how it was back then during the ancient Greek period. But look how God not only change him but his stature in life.
God sees no partiality (Romans 2:11), but people certainly do!
God transform people into a new person. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things have become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17)
Justine Beaver once loved God with all his might. He has a good voice but didn't really stand out from the rest. He put out songs on Youtube, which was not all that popular back then, unlike now, that was how people started to take notice. But you see, God opens doors for whatever your heart desires.
Justine didn't become famous on his own, God opens doors. This is clearly evident since so many complain and say I work hard, why do I not see success? When Justine was tested, he failed time and time again. He says he is a Christian, but his tree bears no fruit.
Katy Perry is another person. Her voice is a gift from God. At the beginning of her career, she started out as a Gospel singer but not too long after, she "sold her SOUL to the devil." She regrets it today, but after tasting the forbidden fruit, her desire to eat more has devoured her completely.
Steve Harvey is a famous comedian and hosts many wholesome family shows. He was once a homeless man. It's surprising! He is always well-dressed and never forgets his past. He gives credit to God for his success and always prays in secrecy. He does not announce to the whole world that he is a Christian, as the relationship is between him and God, unlike Justine Beaver always announcing to the world he is a Christian. Steve Harvey gives back to society in a big way, but he does not tell the whole world all that he gives. With wealth comes responsibilities, this is God's desire.
Never forget, (James 1:17) Every good and perfect gift comes from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights. Remembering to always give thanks to the GOOD Lord.
God is majestic in all his ways! God is generous and far greater giver than any people without expecting anything back in return. When you build a relationship with God, he blesses you without even asking because God is the GOOD FATHER, the highest, the splendor above all.

Hello everyone , i ve recently moved from windows to Linux and i ve encountered a bit of a problem regarding audio controls.
I don t use the onboard audio of my motherboard since i have an adapter card that served me (Asus XONAR DG). In windows i was using the software provided by asus to control my output to a 5.1 audio system/microphone/and front panel audio connections(headphones mostly).Since i ve switched to Linux Mint Cinnamon edition i have tried installing that software using Wine/Bottles but to no avail.
The audio controls in Mint allow me to output to my 5.1 speaker system and it works just fine but it does not output sound to my front panel connection even tho it seems to appear in output selection.
For now i ve installed Pavu and im using the onboard audio for my headphones , if anyone has any leads to solving this please leave a comment.
This is my first time posting here so please be understanding. Thank you for your time.

Hello,
I am trying to post new Assets to our Topdesk ASset Management but I am getting a page error title:
invoke-restmethod : {"pageErrorTitle":"Ongeldige aanvraag","pageError":"templateId can't be determined."}
The JSON I am sending is:
{ "metadata": { "archived": false, "templateId": "EA9613B5-7A5E-411D-AE19-E11DBF249600", "template": { "tabs": "System.Collections.Hashtable" }, "autoNumbering": { "enabled": true }, "templateName": "Certificaat" }, "data": { "warranty-expires": "2023-04-05T21:00:00.000", "budget-holder": "5d4847ef-f48c-48d6-af12-c986f0f6cc8c", "supplier": "8989c9e0-66f5-47de-a024-82359f933806", "serial-number": "05460465064", "certificaat_soort": "35c5e553-5157-498c-8db8-79645342403f", "purchase-date": "2019-12-01T22:00:00.000", "contact": "76925c8d-4fbe-401d-86a8-a21cca11afed", "status": "IMPACTED", "infra-status": "73f17e49-06fd-4ee6-9863-e1314343f351", "host-name": "arnhem.nl" } }

What am I doing wrong? I used a GET request to get all templates and so I am pretty sure the TemplateID and name are correct.
Also, the fact that the template column is necessary is rather confusing, why would I need to detail parts of the template when I already submit a TemplateID which should just load the template as it is saved.
Any help would be appreciated.

I (23 F)have been on a weight loss journey for 10 months now, I lost quite bit of weight 74 kgs to 57 kgs as of now. I am in a calorie deficit eating around 1500-1700 calories daily. I used to do cardio and light sports at home at first. I switched to working out in a gym 3 months ago and it has been really challenging for me. It is a small private gym with a PT and 3 to 5 other people working out. The trainer is really kind and encouraging, and my gym partners are really kind people too. The results are certainly there but I feel like I am not doing good enough. It has been 3 months but I feel like I am not well rested in between sets, causing me to stay longer than anyone at the gym taking up space and time in an already small gym. I tried switching up what I eat to feel more energetic but I didn't see any significant results. I want to push harder but I feel really lightheaded and can't collect my thoughts (probably due to low blood pressure?) I have severe social anxiety so I keep worrying people, especially my PT must be annoyed because I take too long even though I am not doing much compared to how much time I spent. Muscle growth, appetite, calorie deficit, energy and mental health feel like an unsolvable puzzle to me right now. I am eating healthy with around 50-80 grams of protein. What can I do to improve my performance at the gym? The only thing I haven't tried is eating something high in carbs before a workout. A friend who works out said if I eat something high in carbs before a workout, the body will prioritize carbs first so fat loss won't be as efficient so that's why I was avoiding eating carbs. What should I do?

A Scottish hospital is testing an AI tool to help radiologists analyze mammogram results and detect early-stage breast cancer. This trial is a response to growing demands on radiologists, with the tool acting as an additional check rather than a replacement.
Breast Cancer Screening and AI Trial: Screening for breast cancer using mammograms is a routine practice, but there are concerns about missing cases due to the volume of screenings.

• Each year, radiologists review around 5,000 mammograms, with a subset requiring further investigation.
• The AI trial at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary aims to assist with this process and ensure no cases are missed.

The Gemini Project: The Gemini Project is the collaborative effort behind the AI tool being tested.

• It involves NHS Grampian, the University of Aberdeen, and private sector partners including Kheiron Medical Technologies and Microsoft.

AI as a Complementary Tool: Due to existing rules, AI is not allowed to be deployed automatically in screenings but is used as an additional check.

• Radiologists are trialling the AI tool by using it to review mammogram scans after their initial analysis.
• The tool helps highlight any areas of concern that may have been missed.

Patient Experience with AI: June, a participant in the trial, found that the use of AI made the process feel less intrusive.

• She appreciated the feeling of being examined by AI rather than another person.
• As a result of the trial, June's early-stage cancer was detected, and she is now set to undergo surgery.

The Future Role of AI: The AI tool could potentially take over some of the workload currently shouldered by radiologists.

• A significant number of radiologists are nearing or at retirement age, creating a potential staffing issue.
• Using AI could help mitigate this by reading and reporting results, potentially covering half of the reading burden of around 1.72 million images per year.
• The extent to which AI will replace or support human radiologists is yet to be determined, but its use is likely to increase.

I'm not sure this is a sas question but it is an explicit passthrough to Oracle so if there's a better sub for this let me know.
My data set:

Case_nr user dttm_stamp action 123 bob 060923_0101 start case 123 bob 060923_0102 null 123 bob 060923_0104 Intake 123 bob 060923_0108 null 123 system 060923_0109 assign 123 system 060923_0109 null 123 rachel 060923_0110 casework 123 rachel 060923_0114 null 123 rachel 061023_0158 doggy 123 system 061023_0205 reassign 123 steve 061023_0206 case_qa 123 steve 061023_0208 null 123 steve 061023_0224 null 123 steve 061023_0278 close_case 

I have transactional data, and I'm using Row_number over partition like this

proc sql; create table want as select case_nr ,user ,dttm_stamp ,action ,ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY user ORDER BY dttm_stamp) as order1 from have dttm_stamp asc order by ;quit; 

and I get this (which I want)

Case_nr user dttm_stamp action order1 123 bob 060923_0101 start case 1 123 bob 060923_0102 null 2 123 bob 060923_0104 Intake 3 123 bob 060923_0108 null 4 123 system 060923_0109 assign 1 123 system 060923_0109 null 2 123 rachel 060923_0110 casework 1 123 rachel 060923_0114 null 2 123 rachel 061023_0158 doggy 3 123 system 061023_0205 reassign 1 123 steve 061023_0206 case_qa 1 123 steve 061023_0208 null 2 123 steve 061023_0224 null 3 123 steve 061023_0278 close_case 4 

So now I have a break down of the first time a new user touches the case. But I also need it grouped each time it switches user to be a number as well. Below is what I want (but can't get yet).

Case_nr user dttm_stamp action order1 order2 123 bob 060923_0101 start case 1 1 123 bob 060923_0102 null 2 1 123 bob 060923_0104 Intake 3 1 123 bob 060923_0108 null 4 1 123 system 060923_0109 assign 1 2 123 system 060923_0109 null 2 2 123 rachel 060923_0110 casework 1 3 123 rachel 060923_0114 null 2 3 123 rachel 061023_0158 doggy 3 3 123 system 061023_0205 reassign 1 4 123 steve 061023_0206 case_qa 1 5 123 steve 061023_0208 null 2 5 123 steve 061023_0224 null 3 5 123 steve 061023_0278 close_case 4 5 

but if I take out the dttm_stamp in my select statement, I can't use it in an order by. I think I have to create it from a CTE and then left join it?
