![]() ![]() In 1:10-15, Joshua commanded Israel to prepare themselves. Next, our author introduced Joshua's commands in response to God's directives. ![]() In verse 2, God told Joshua, "Arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people." He then told Joshua three times in verses 6, 7 and 9, "Be strong and courageous." Joshua's Commands We first read God's commands to Joshua in 1:1-9. This section on Israel's preparations for victory divides into three steps that introduce the appropriate chain of command for every upcoming battle in our book. This area is sometimes called Cisjordan, meaning "beside the Jordan." But in the opening of our book, God commanded Joshua to prepare to lead Israel westward into victory over the land of Canaan. The book of Joshua opens with Israel on the plains of Moab, east of the Jordan River, an area often called Transjordan, meaning "across the Jordan." These territories were so bountiful that, according to Numbers 32, the tribes of Reuben, Gad and half of the tribe of Manasseh asked for, and received, Moses' permission to settle there. Let's begin with an overview of its structure and content. Time will only permit us to look briefly at two aspects of Israel's preparations for victory: first the structure and content of this portion of our book, and then some aspects of its original meaning. Let's look first at Israel's preparations for victory. Then we'll close with some comments on Christian application. Our lesson on Israel's victorious conquest will look at each of these three sections. These chapters divide into three main sections: Israel's preparations for victory in chapter 1 Israel's initial victories over two cities in chapters 2–8 and Israel's later victories over two alliances in chapters 9–12. It does this by drawing attention to Israel's extensive victorious conquest over the land of Canaan. The first major division, in chapters 1–12, addresses the original audience's challenges associated with warfare. And the book was designed to guide these Old Testament Israelites as they continued to face the challenges of pursuing their victorious conquest, securing their tribal inheritances and renewing their covenant loyalty. The book of Joshua was written about Israel's victorious conquest, tribal inheritances and covenant loyalty in Joshua's day to address similar challenges facing later generations.Īs we've learned, Joshua was originally written for Israelites who lived either in the period of the judges, during the monarchy, or as late as the Babylonian exile. In our preceding lesson, we summarized the original meaning of the book of Joshua in this way: And we've entitled it, Israel's "Victorious Conquest." In this lesson, we'll deal with the first major division of the book, Joshua 1–12. This is the second lesson in our series on The Book of Joshua. And as Christ's followers, we are called to embrace this outlook as well. But, contrary to our modern inclinations, the book of Joshua actually honors God, not for tolerating, but for commanding, leading and empowering Israel's conquest. We wonder how the loving, merciful God we know in Christ could have tolerated Israel's attempt to destroy the inhabitants of Canaan. ![]() ![]() If there's one portion of the Old Testament that troubles most modern Christians more than any other, it has to be the chapters of the book of Joshua that describe Israel's conquest of the Promised Land.

The lesions on his lungs were already severe and his bronchial artery was slowly being eroded.Īs they were leaving the island their car suffered a puncture and Richard and Orwell stayed in the vehicle as the others got help. George Orwell's son Richard Blair (Image: 2009 David Levenson) ![]() It was decided Orwell should go to a lung specialist at the Cranham Sanitorium in Gloucestershire. He returned to Jura but was being consumed by the disease. The near-drowning aggravated Orwell’s illness and a little while later he was taken to Hairmyres Hospital in East Kilbride. I have been through Corryvreckan dozens of times since in my own boat.” The tide was running and we could have been dragged away and been drowned. “We scrambled to the land and were picked up by a lobster boat. “I remember being under the water but because I was on father’s knee he managed to get me. Henry rowed them to an islet but when he jumped off and pulled the dinghy in, it capsized. He was with Richard on his knee, his nephew Henry and niece Lucy when he realised he had miscalculated the tides, their outboard was swamped in the clashing waters. It was after a week camping in June 1947 that Orwell’s boat capsized. In the evenings, they would go fishing or checking their lobster pots. Richard said: “I recall my father catching a very large adder once, by putting his foot on its head and disembowelling it with a knife.” He was helped by disabled veteran Bill who had come to learn farming and who Avril later married. Richard said: “You could see how his mind worked, taking an idea and refining it and refining it.” But Orwell also spent hours in the pure Hebridean air and Richard remembers eating the fresh vegetables they grew on the farm. George Orwell clatters away at a typewriter (Image: Mondadori Collection) He either typed or he wrote in longhand and had no one to help him.”Ĭopies of the original handwritten manuscript have survived, including the cross of Orwell’s pen, as he tussled with the perfect wording. He would be clattering away on the typewriter and when writing he liked to be alone. “A tubercular lung didn’t need that but I suppose he wasn’t aware of the danger. ![]() He would sit in his room, puffing away and there was a paraffin lamp that gave off a terrible stink. ![]() It was hard for him because he wasn’t well a lot of the time.”ĭuring the day Orwell would shut himself upstairs and work. I remember being happy and spending time with my father. Richard said: “I did have a lot of freedom to play there. Jura is a wilderness of beaches, rugged landscape and the rising Paps. Susan didn’t stay long when Orwell’s sister Avril joined them, as the two clashed horribly over how Richard should be reared. Richard, two, arrived a couple of months later on the steamer Locheil with his nanny Susan Watson. When the war was over, Orwell escaped London to rent Barnhill, an isolated house reached only by boat or by walking the last six miles along a rugged track at the road’s end. Richard was only 10 months when his adoptive mother died and friends suggested to Orwell that he simply “unadopt” him. Orwell first holidayed on the Jura estate of his friend, David Astor, who felt it would be respite for the writer following the death of his wife Eileen, who had a heart attack. I have visions of being with him there and we had some lovely times. He said: “Jura will always be a magnetic draw to me. Richard, 70, has been back to the island many times, pulled by the memories of the father he lost to tuberculosis when he was only five. He and 22 members of the Orwell Society will travel to Barnhill, the remote farmhouse where the writer, real name Eric Blair, laboured over 1984 in an upstairs bedroom. This weekend, Richard is on the island again to mark the 65th anniversary of the renowned novel that spouted the maxim “Big Brother is watching you”. The notorious waters lie to the northern tip of Jura, the island where Orwell wrote 1984 and where he lived out his last precious years with his adopted son. It is ironic that he will rest there, the whirlpool in which he and his famous father George Orwell almost drowned in 1947. RICHARD Blair has asked that his ashes be scattered on his boat, set alight and swept into the maelstrom of the Gulf of Corryvreckan. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you are a staff member wondering if this is for you?.

Sunday afternoon felt somewhat slow, and I felt that I could have taken a flight out that evening instead of Monday morning and not missed a lot. Events start on Thursday evening, though the largest crowds of people don’t show up until about 2 pm on Friday (according to convention sources, who refer to this rush as the ‘college crowd’). A month and a half later, with a mostly-finished new costume, I found myself on a plane to Atlanta, on the way to one of the best convention experiences of my life.ĪWA is a four day convention, technically speaking. I had a room by myself, and jumping in headfirst with no security net was scary- But jumping in turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made. I knew absolutely nobody in Atlanta I had no friends going. Instead, I applied for a badge, and decided that if the universe wanted it to work out, I would go to Anime Weekend Atlanta. I didn’t go to the con I’ve been attending for 10 years. I gave away my room at the major local con. I decided to do something crazy, something out of my comfort zone. I’m not sure what straw broke the camel’s back, but in August, I realized that I had been saying the same things for too long: Each year would be my last year, then the next year would be the last, hoping it would improve every time and being let down each time I gave my home state another chance. After three years of bad experiences at my local conventions, I had decided that this would be my last year going to local cons. It’s been a rough couple of years, after all: A year of mediocre convention experiences, cosplay friendships ending, and general disappointment.

![]() Ed Nangle, Ohio State University assistant professor of turfgrass management. “Each course is different, though, and superintendents just need to determine the tradeoffs between overseeding and colorants.”ĭyes and colorants can reduce light stress on turfgrass plants in the summer, while in winter the benefits include retention of green color on warm-season grasses and more rapid spring green-up for both warm- and cool-season grasses, says Dr. Casey Reynolds, executive director of Turfgrass Producers International and former Texas A&M assistant professor. “There is data available that compares overseeding costs (seed, mowing, labor, fertilization, irrigation, etc.), and colorants are often much cheaper than overseeding,” says Dr. ![]() In addition, they open a herbicide program for winter weed control in warm-season grasses and can be cost effective compared to overseeding, he says.Ĭolorants and pigments reduce a superintendent’s bottom line, especially when it comes to aesthetic turf practices.

Windows is not longer the cash-cow it once was even on the server. > but the failing culture within Microsoft is unable to recognise they are driving users off their own product. The Apple premium makes much less sense now, and I am not sure if I am gonna go with Apple for my next phone or computer purchase. So while I would be happy to spend an extra X$ for a "no ad" product compared to a "with ad" product, I wouldn't feel the same about a "low ad" product. So at least in my view, the gap between Apple and Microsoft in this regard is not "way ahead", it is "slightly ahead and getting closer". For me at least, it moves the service from the "no ad" category to the "with ad" category, and I hate the latter category. Just replace Apple and Microsoft with Netflix and imagine how we would feel if Netflix started showing some-not too many and not too outrageous-ads. The gap between "no ad" and "low ad" feels much bigger the gap between "low ad" and "more ad". I would love to be proven wrong, but I would also be surprised if I do.ģ. They have to show growth quarter after quarter, so in all likelihood, like we have seen with other companies, it's only gonna get worse.

Why is (or was?) not having iCloud set up showing up as a permanent notification badge over Settings? It was a while ago, but I remember I subscribed just to shut iOS up.
