Alas, many European politicians preferred to wait and see. This envisaged EU and NATO membership for Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, and a free Belarus. To view a video devotional of this message, click here.A few years ago, against the backdrop of a national pro-democracy uprising in Belarus, I called on European leaders to develop a clear strategy for Eastern Europe. We are expecting His Holy Spirit to come and bless His Church. Yet, we are expecting something even bigger and better. Yes, we expect the end of this global pandemic with hope and assurance. His Spirit gives us the power to look beyond any frightful situation.Īs we journey together from Easter to Pentecost, we are still reminded of the power of the resurrection, and we are together in a period of expectation. The Lord is willing and able to intersect our fragile human sense of security and replace it with “His peace that passes all understanding.” The power of His resurrection gives us joy for the journey. However, there is something bigger than any human sense of safety and security, even amid a pandemic, and that is the Lord’s absolute peace. All these things will help us keep the threat of the pandemic at bay. All of these things are absolutely necessary. We have found ways to support each other so that we do not feel alone in this pandemic, and most of us have found mechanisms to “lock ourselves in” to stay safe and healthy. What a great reminder this is for us in times like the present! Many of us are isolated, either by choice or by order of the local authorities. Jesus’ presence provided them with peace, joy, and the assurance of His Spirit. He was going to replace any human device that would provide temporary assurance with a divine, permanent, and true peace-His everlasting peace. What Jesus did was exactly what He had promised. What kind of a greeting is this? To break into the place where they thought they were completely safe and somehow let them know that even the most secure human mechanism only gives a temporary, if not false, sense of security. Yet, in the middle of what they felt was the most secure way to avoid any threat, the Lord suddenly appeared and shook them with a strangely soothing message: “Peace be with you!” The disciples thought that they were safe from the threat because they were in complete isolation, supporting each other by being together and under lock and key so no one could find them and hurt them. However, the Lord interrupted the disciples’ false sense of security and replaced it with His permanent and reassuring sense of peace. The same people who had killed their Lord and Master only days ago were now threatening to annihilate His followers. The disciples had every reason to feel threatened and fearful. They were isolated, gathered together in a support group, and under lock and key for fear of the Jews. His disciples were together, doing what normal individuals do when facing fear and threats. The Gospel of John tells us the story of the event that coined this familiar greeting (John 20:19-22). This is the first greeting the disciples received from Christ on the very first Easter Sunday, and the church has faithfully passed along this greeting from generation to generation as a witness and assurance that the Resurrected Christ is our source of true peace. This is a beautiful way to greet each other because it identifies all of us as followers of the resurrected Christ. “Peace be with you” is the greeting of many churches in North America. “A Paz do Senhor” is how Christians in Brazil greet one another. “Mir Vam” is the greeting of the church in Russia. Many of us have had the privilege of being with the global Christian family, and we have been greeted by what is unequivocally the most well-known Christian greeting throughout generations. This is one of the most common greetings among Christians around the world.

I really love it for a few very simple things. Starship is a cross-shell prompt written in Rust (from the “everything is better in Rust” movement). The first good surprise I’ve found is Starship. If you want minimal changes and a zero fiddling prompt solution, bash + Starship is for you.Ĭonsidering bash remains the most deployed, you can’t go wrong compatibility wise. Read more to know which one is right for you. I got seduced by Zsh + oh-my-zsh for its plugin ecosystem and attachable auto suggestion features and am using Starship to customize the prompt. One big caveat before that, I am perfectly happy writing my scripts in bash and won’t change my programming language, so this post is focused on the shell and prompt aspect of the problem. I had to fix it every new minor version of Python coming due to path changes.Īnd I was in dread of making it fall into working condition every time I wanted to change something. My prompt uses Powerline, a Python based prompt that I found a bit brittle. It was not a blocker for me as Homebrew lets you install an up to date bash version anyways but I’ve been increasingly dissatisfied. It has something to do with licensing and being fed up with maintaining a decade old bash version themselves. MacOS has decided to deprecate bash in favor of zsh. I felt the urge to revisit this and asked around what the favorite shell was and I investigated a bit. I have been using bash as a shell for as long as I remember and added prompt customization for almost as long as I remember. Which shell to use? bash, zsh, fish, something else? As they suggest, use raw cashews rather than peanuts. The Mala Market recipe, on their blog as “Gong Bao Chicken,” is the one to follow. *****Add chicken and reserved sauce and cook, tossing, until liquid is nearly evaporated and coats chicken, about 1 minute longer. Cook, tossing constantly, until very aromatic and dried chiles are lightly toasted, about 1 minute. or 1/2 tsp chilli flake not plus.Īnd as for fellow Aussie don't see any mention of Keto in recipe description!Īdd dried chiles, scallions, Fresno chile, ginger, garlic, and peppercorns. Would think marinade is a ratio so 2 2 1 of any measure would work. I think the fresh bell pepper adds a lot to the dish. One of my favorite variations on kung pao chicken that I make. Step 5ĭivide chicken stir-fry among plates and serve immediately. Taste and season lightly with salt if needed. Add chicken and reserved sauce and cook, tossing, until liquid is nearly evaporated and coats chicken, about 1 minute longer. Add dried chiles, scallions, Fresno chile, ginger, garlic, and peppercorns. Add bell pepper and cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Add chicken (along with any marinade clinging to it) and cook, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned all over but not cooked through, 3–4 minutes. oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high. Stir vinegar, soy sauce, and sugar in a small bowl set sauce aside. Stir wine, soy sauce, and cornstarch in a small bowl. Thus, with no fear or taint of comparison, she actually gives a whole different nuance to the lyric. It was probably just as well that Faith Hill had apparently never heard either the original “Piece of My Heart”–or, indeed, any other version of the song–when her producer put it to her as an idea. Faith Hill–Piece of My Heart (Erma Franklin cover) There are innumerable live versions and recordings, but it is this one that first blew away the cobwebs, and it is still the best. It made a superstar of the singer, remained her signature song for the rest of her foreshortened career, and ultimately sealed her fate as being too big for the band. Their 1968 version of “Piece of My Heart” kicked Erma’s dignified rendition around a bit, adding Joplin’s heart, liver, and lungs to Franklin’s soul, along with the electric guitar of James Gurley, taking it to #12 on the charts. And Janis, once unleashed onto the stage, became a frenzy of sweat and tears, her voice a coruscating tsunami of wracked angst. They took on the quiet bespectacled singer who catapulted them to fame, Janis Joplin. That may well have been that, had it not caught the ears of a certain band beginning to make waves in the Bay Area.īig Brother & the Holding Company–Piece of My Heart (Erma Franklin cover)īig Brother and the Holding Company, already an established band locally, were short of a strong vocalist. (Berns had, unsuccessfully, first offered it to Van, which could have been intriguing.) Her rendition was good, very good even, hitting a credible #62 in the chart. It was Aretha’s little sister, Erma Franklin, who first tried out “Piece of My Heart,” in 1967. Berns was responsible for, amongst other things, our first glimpse of Van Morrison, performing the early singles of Them, “Here Comes the Night” and “Baby, Please Don’t Go.” Ragovoy also had a hand in “Stay With Me, Baby,” arguably the other song of a heart breaking in explosive slo-mo. “Piece of My Heart” was written by Jerry Ragovoy and Bert Berns, both jobbing songwriters with a slew of hits to their credit, individually and collectively. So, fewer hidden nuggets to unearth, but more fond reminders of times mislaid to be gained by revisiting. But surprisingly (and not a little disappointingly), whilst there are many of them, most are known nearly as well known as the first cover, many making waves in the charts of their particular day. You would think there would be a ton of good and/or quirky covers of “Piece of My Heart,” it being such an icon of overwrought emoting. Complicated to defend air as both of your cards die from small spells. The worst matchups are enemies with Lightning + Arrows/Log. This deck has a powerful defense with the Zap/Log bait cards. The key of this deck is to have the maximum amount of Princess alive, and not use them to Bait for the Goblin Barrel, on contrary, the Goblin Barrel should be used to make your opponent use its small spell and make the Princess survive. The Mortar can be used offensively and defensively. Try to pressure him with Hog Rider plus some bait cards and then defend properly. If the enemy has Arrows, you’ll have a hard time defending its attacks. Try to start your attacks from behind, yes you can use the Hog Rider at the river to see the enemy’s defenses but this deck is a counter-push deck, the key is to defend and attack afterward. The most complicated matchups are Beatdown decks. This is an expensive Elixir deck for being a Hog Rider one. Use Elite Barbarians in defense and counterattack with them. Great cycle with cheaper cards like Skeleton’s and small spells, but lack of air defense as the Firecracker is your only card and it dies from Arrows. Strong AoE defense with bomber and Firecracker. In Double Elixir, every time the opponent uses a troop of 3+ elixir near its Tower, use the Rocket to kill it and get damage in it. #3 – Executioner Rocket deckĬomplicated deck to master, but one of the best Hog Rider decks in the game (if not the best as has finished some times TOP 1 in Ladder).Įxecutioner and Tornado is a deadly combination in defense, also adding the splash damage of the Valkyrie makes this deck a great option to push trophies. In Double-Triple Elixir, you have to cycle earthquakes at the enemy’s tower every time you have it or gives you some kind of value (if they add a card near it). In this case, I’d recommend you to use Hog Rider by himself, not using the Knight to tank for it as the Knight doesn’t target only buildings as the Ice Golem. This one has doesn’t have that lack of air defense and also has Earthquake to destroy enemy buildings. This is also a fast cycle deck even if it’s more expensive than the 2.6 cycle deck. Ice Spirit and Skeletons are used to cycle to a certain card, it doesn’t need to be the Hog Rider, as later on in the game, you can just win it by cycling spells at the enemy’s tower.Īlso, it’s very Free-to-play friendly as only has The Log as a Legendary card (which can be used with less level). Your attack consists of using the Ice Golem as a mini-tank for the Hog Rider, simple as that. To succeed with this deck, you need to understand the cycle and try to count the enemy’s elixir and cards in hand to out-cycle and punish it for not having a proper defense. Lack of air defense compensated with a fast cycle and strong attacks. This is a classic, one of the best decks in the game that has been at the top since the very beginning of this game. Here’s the TOP 10 best Hog Rider deck, be ready to copy your favorite one and destroy the Arena with it. The device has a setting panel which you might need an hour to navigate through, not because it’s difficult but because there are so many options. If you don’t like this service, you can also choose only one location/country setting. You don’t have to worry about it since the device automatically chooses the best route. Deeper connect pico may route YouTube data packets via US server, Netflix via UK and Google via Singapore. Based on the optimal route and effeciency, the system automatically routes your data through multiple locations.įor example, you are watching YouTube, Netflix and browsing Google. Unlike VPN where you tunnel your traffic through one location, Deeper connect pico let’s you route your traffic through multiple locations. There are a couple more advantages, I am embedding this comparison image which I got from the product campaign page.Ī to Z info on DPN, check this guide Multi-Routing Why pay $10 a month for VPN when you have a more secure hardware-based encryption which costs $0 per month. There is a one-time fee that you pay to get this device, but once that’s done, you don’t pay anything monthly, everything is free for life. This makes it very very difficult to be tracked by bad people! Instead, the user information is stored/transmitted through personal devices (such as phones and laptops) and this network has 20000+ nodes in it. Meaning, there is no one server through which your data is passed. There are hundreds of VPN software, web apps, mobile apps and hardware, some of them are free while some charge a lot of money every month. Most of us know VPN right? If not, it is Virtual Private Network that tends to privatize your internet connection.

Features of Deeper Connect PicoĪlthough this gadget has a ton of features, I am only picking a few that blew me away. In this article, we are going to look at the mind-blowing features of Connect Pico, why you need it and why I am buying one for myself. Today, we are going to have a look at Deeper Connect Pico which is their latest release, Connect Mini being the previous one. Free lifetime VPN, hardware security gateway, ad blocking, free crypto tokens and whatnot. Their network devices solve some of the biggest problems of your internet. It is because their products are unique and very innovative. I have been following Deeper Network for a while now and every time they come up with a new product, I get really excited to know the features. Super busy with other stuff at the moment. I am going to write an in-depth review sometime. Free crypto tokens/mining thing does not work unless you put some massive initial deposit in their system and wait for a fixed period of time to start mining. Internet speed is unaffected, DPN is good but needs more people involved in the network for optimal functionality. If I face any issues with Deeper’s Wifi, I can easily switch to the other network and get my job done. One with the default AT&T modem + router and one with Deeper pico + Meshforce router. If you are planning to get it, please have a backup modem router functioning alongside. For this reason, I am downgrading my ratings to 3.9/5. I have also noticed that youtube videos sometimes buffer which is annoying. For example, google analytics throws ‘please try again’ message but works properly when refreshed a couple of times. It did work after I routed semrush site through Asia. You need a separate youtube mobile app for this to work and the app is horrible. But the Youtube ad blocking feature sucks.

There are no words from Facebook yet about what may be causing the problems or when these platforms will be fully operational again. Reports have it that the last time Facebook had a disruption of this magnitude was in 2008 when the site had 150m users – compared to its over 2 billion active users today. Instagram went down for 1 hour sometimes just last month, and all Facebook platforms went down in June. A similar incident occurred a few months ago. Remember that this isn’t the first time the social media networks have been down. According to Downdetector, the current malfunctioning of the social media platforms is due to a widespread outage at Facebook. This problem is similar to the Slack outage which occurred last week, which was due to their recurring DNS problems. Reports from downdetector show that there have been over 50,000 reports from users about Instagram currently unavailable, 33,000 for Facebook and over 121 reports for Facebook. The social media app Facebook, its photo-sharing app Instagram, and social networking app WhatsApp are experiencing downtime with thousands of its users unable to access them globally, according to reports from outrage tracking website .Īlthough the cause of the interruption has not yet been made public, the social media giant turned to Twitter to acknowledge the glitch on it platforms. Did you notice that one or all of Facebook’s family apps (Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram) has been down today? You are not alone because Facebook suffered the most severe outage in its history.
