Ruth

To whom it may concern:

I've heard people say I wouldn't date/marry someone based on age, married before or takes care of someone 

He gave me Ruth 

Know this "Ruth"

Everyone wants a Ruth. One with values, works hard & a godly woman or man

But we forget Ruth didn't come alone, was married before(widowed), lost love, wasn't rich & nowhere near his age

We're asking God for a Spouse but skipping over certain people because of that

& Some are dating people but can't commit because of it.

The one for us might come with a parent or child, been through some things, nowhere near our age, very little money & it might not be their first marriage

Now I'm not saying just date anyone who has an elderly parent, child, widowed/divorced, been through it or way younger or older lol

I'm saying don't miss your blessings because of it.

Like Boaz: learn about that person. Make sure they are godly, hard working & have control of everything, especially their child.

& for that person! Make sure you have a reputation so good like Ruth that they can't help but to hear good things about you

So don't just dismiss people because of certain things

Because the thing we are allowing to push us away might be the thing that actually brought them closer to God just like Ruth. 

Because in Ruth words to her mother-in-law "your God is my God". The woman who gave her much advice

Subverting the federal government was on the minds of state lawmakers Thursday in an hours-long civics lesson from far-right speakers. 

As promised in the 2023 session of the Tennessee General Assembly, the idea of nullification was heard during a summer study session in Nashville. The idea is, basically, for Tennessee to be able to nullify rules from the federal government that it does not like. 

(Read our cover story — “Who’s Got the Power?” — from March to get more details on Tennessee, state sovereignty, and nullification.)

Bills to outline a nullification process in Tennessee go back to at least to 1995. A similar resolution passed in 2021 but it was specific to Covid. It condemned the federal government for mandating vaccinations, restrictions, or requirements. 

Another came last year when state Rep. Bud Hulsey (R-Kingsport) and state Sen. Janice Bowling (R-Tullahoma) filed the ”Restoring State Sovereignty Through Nullification Act.” 

In it, the legislature could decide what federal rules they wanted to follow or not. Also, if a voter scraped together 2,000 signatures, they could submit a petition for a nullification to the Speaker of the Tennessee House.  

The bill gained very little traction, if any at all. Neither bill even got enough support to place it on the calendar for a full committee hearing. The idea was slated for a summer study review in 2023. However, that study was interrupted with a special session on school safety, in the wake of the Covenant School shooting that left six dead.  

But Bulsey and Bowling’s idea did finally get that summer study review, even if it was actually in the fall of 2024. True to form on these sessions, Thursday’s hearing yielded no votes or promise of any course of action. It was purely for review. 

The session was not a town hall. State Sen. Richard Briggs (R-Knoxville), the committee chairman, said he knew the idea was “controversial” but did not allow members of the public to speak, or clap, or boo. That right to speak came only for the experts called upon by the legislature. Those selected for this duty Thursday were roundly (and soundly) conservative. 

Jeff Cobble is an attorney and member of the conservative Federalist Society. Joe Wolverton is the inaugural constitutional law scholar for the ultra-conservative John Birch Society. Mark Pulliam is an attorney and writer who, in an August blog post, prayed “… a single juror would vote for President Trump’s acquittal in the circus-like show trial …” in Manhattan. 

The hours of their testimony ranged back to the Declaration of Independence, through the 1781 Articles of Confederation, and to 1787 when the U.S. Constitution was proposed. Lots of it dove deep into definitions of the words of the constitution, like “all,” for example. 

“I’m going to take you like elementary school students through this so this is plain,” said Wolverton in a detailed section of the Constitution to elected lawmakers. “We’re going to go through it phrase by phrase.”  

As for the meat of the separation of powers (and therefore what power Tennessee really does have in nullification), Wolverton presented his ideas wrapped like a click-bait-y YouTube video. “In an hour,” he began, “I can show you how the 14th Amendment is taught wrong.”  

“State — capitalized — has a specific meaning,” he said. “It’s got to do with the sovereign. Nations today are nation states. They are sovereign. 

“I’m suggesting to you something radical, something I did not learn in [constitutional] law. The states are sovereign over the federal government. Now, take that and chew on it. That’s what this bill’s about.” 

Some spice in the meeting came late as state Sen. Jeff Yarbro (D-Nashville) began asking questions of the panel. He asked if the work of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) helping out now in East Tennessee was an example of what they were taking about.

Yes, Cobble said, “It’s usurpation, whether it’s used for good or bad,” adding that communities come together in times of tragedy, noting specifically that “the Amish, they build their own barns. They raise their owns houses.”

“You know, good things can happen without a government,” he said. “So, my answer is yes, FEMA is clearly unconstitutional.”

important question. what is your favorite bird. feel free to elaborate as much or as little as you want (I like birds)

I don’t have a favorite, but that’s only because my brain doesn’t really categorize things in that way.

Still, I’ve always had an affinity for northern cardinals.

It’s a gorgeous, striking bird to see up close.

There were some that used to nest right by my childhood home in Tullahoma, Tennessee.

Battle of Tantallon por Isaac Fulford Por Flickr: A CSX freight grinds up Cumberland mountain miles from anywhere. These deep rock cuts were the former Nashville Chattanooga and Saint Louis Railroad's answer to the foreboding rock formations that lined the east slope of Cumberland Mountain near Cowan, TN. CSX battles the escarpment northbound and southbound with manned helper engines on the rear of most trains. With 39 loads on the headpin this Tullahoma, TN, bound local needed the assistance of the Cowan helper up the grueling hill from Sherwood at the bottom of the hill. For ten minutes you could hear them battle the hill, and it quickly became deafening as the train entered the massive cut. A few minutes later they'd crest the grade, pass through the summit tunnel, and be descending the mountain grade. Right behind this train was a Q210 with empty auto carriers making an unassisted run at the hill. This is one of the coolest places I've ever been.... Thanks for looking and enjoy!

"WISTERIA MAIDEN"

by Juuri

Tokyo-born Juuri commonly uses Japanese patterns, motifs, and flora to enhance her portrayals of delicate beauty. In 2020 Juuri painted this well known kabuki character in Tullahoma, Tennessee—site of of one of the WW2 internment sites for those of Japanese descent—for the Walls for Women project. Walls for Women was created by DMA to celebrate the centenary of Tennessee's role as the final state to ratify the 19th Ammendment, and to facilitate the ongoing conversation concerning the rights of women "in all facets of life."

FRED is 60 years old today! November 3rd, 2023 is the 60th anniversary of the first flight of Eric Clutton's Flying Runabout Experimental Design aka FRED. I filmed this little clip when I visited Eric in Tullahoma, Tennessee back in 2012. Sadly, Eric passed away in February 2022 but his simple, practical, affordable, safe and fun little aeroplane soldiers on. That FREDs continue to be built and flown here and there all over the world is a fitting tribute to, as Eric liked to joke, "Stoke-on-Trent's other aeroplane designer". (R.J. Mitchell of Supermarine Spitfire fame grew up in the same town.) Here's wishing blue skies to all the FRED builders, pilots, and fans out there on this special day!
