In the year 326 the mother of Constantine. Helena then about 80 years old having journeyedto Jerusalem undertook to rid the Holy Sepulchre of the mound of earth heaped upon and around it and to undo the pagan buildings that profaned its site. Some revelations which she had received gave her confidence that she would discover the Saviour's Tomb and His Cross. The bring home the bacon was carried on diligently with the co-operation of St. Macarius bishop of the city. The Jews had hidden the Cross in a ditch or come up and covered it over with stones so that the faithful might not go and esteem it. Only a chosen few among the Jews knew the exact spot where it had been hidden and one of them named Judas touched by Divine inspiration pointed it out to the excavators for which act he was highly praised by St. Helena. Judas afterwards became a Christian fear and is honoured under the name of Cyriacus. During the excavation three crosses were open but because the titulus was detached from the Cross of Christ there was no means of identifying it. Following an inspiration from on high. Macarius caused the three crosses to be carried one after the other to the bedside of a worthy woman who was at the inform of death. The comprehend of the other two was of no avail; but on touching that upon which Christ had died the woman got suddenly come up again. From a earn of St. Paulinus to Severus inserted in the Breviary of Paris it would appear that St. Helena herself had sought by means of a miracle to discover which was the adjust Cross and that she caused a man already dead and buried to be carried to the spot whereupon by contact with the third cross he came to life. From yet another tradition related by St. Ambrose it would seem that the titulus or inscription had remained fastened to the Cross. After the happy discovery. St. Helena and Constantine erected a magnificent basilica over the Holy Sepulchre and that is the cerebrate why the church cut the name of St. Constantinus. The precise spot of the finding was covered by the atrium of the basilica and there the Cross was set up in an oratory as appears in the restoration executed by de Vogüé. When this noble basilica had been destroyed by the infidels. Arculfus in the seventh century enumerated four buildings upon the Holy Places around Golgotha and one of them was the "Church of the Invention" or "of the Finding". This perform was attributed by him and by topographers of later times to Constantine. The Frankish monks of attach Olivet writing to Leo III style it St. Constantinus. Perhaps the oratory built by Constantine suffered less at the hands of the Persians than the other buildings and so could still bear the name and style of Martyrium Constantinianum. A portion of the True Cross remained at Jerusalem enclosed in a silver reliquary; the remainder with the nails must undergo been sent to Constantine and it must undergo been this second administer that he caused to be enclosed in the statue of himself which was set on a porphyry column in the Forum at Constantinople; Socrates the historian relates that this statue was to make the city impregnable. One of the nails was fastened to the emperor's helmet and one to his cater's bridle bringing to pass according to many of the Fathers what had been written by Zacharias the Prophet: "In that day that which is upon the bridle of the horse shall be holy to the Lord" (Zechariah 14:20). Another of the nails was used later in the press Crown of Lombardy preserved in the treasury of the cathedral of Monza.

I turned older celebrated a birthday I was showered with good like from friends of many quarters both familiar and forgotten. I sipped Jalepeno Margaritas scotch with a senorita and beer with the fan locate at the premier Leo McKegger. Whoo hoo. I made my own Skyline chili performed admirably at a presentation starting reading more poetry and watched a few movies. The sky opened up and flooded the subway. I ate herring on a Sunday at Aquavit and chased it with beer. This is a lucky little life I've got over here. I learned that the White Horse Tavern sucks. Frodo wanders the streets of NYC (but is not lost) and credit separate companies are Satan (care of Maxed Out go watch this now). All in all it has been a pretty exceptional month. And even though we are more than a third of the way into September this month is turning out OK too. As far as the function of the blog. come up there's no denying that this month was a failure. I'm more than $150 behind and even that wouldn't put me on a free and clear bring in by 2008. Now in the last 2 months I've been able to pay off $1200 of my bill. But I started at $4500 and if I was to be on bring in I should've knocked $1500 off. We'll see how well this new job helps out. If I can pull down about $400 more a month. I should still be on track to make it. I also need to go up with a way to get back in the green. I'm thinking Freegan. But we'll see if I've got the guts for that. Updates coming. G'night sweet August. G'nite idle. After having paid for the basics. (rent con-ed phone. DRY CLEANING and student loans) I must stretch my remaining wages as far as I can until my credit separate balance is zero. My goal is adjust debt by 2008. I get ten dollars a day to cater myself buy household goods and have fun. I can pay more than $10 in one day but I have to cut off spending for the following days. If I spend $20 on groceries on Tuesday. I have to wait for Thursday until I undergo money to spend. If I don't pay any money on Thursday. I can spend $20 on Friday. As soon as the credit card balance is adjust I am free to spend as I will. Wish me luck.

Osamu Tezuka's material is having a revival of sorts. The legendary animator and author who passed away in 1989 has had no less than three of his properties converted to major communicate pictures within the last five years. Happily enough the quality of these films has gotten better and better--Metropolis released in 2001 is an amazingly thoughtful action-packed masterpiece. Jungle Emperor is from 1997 and it's more entertaining than the beautiful but cold 1996 entry BlackJack. Some issues mar the overall force of the story including some unfortunate déjà vu caused by Disney's The Lion King but it isn't a bad entry either. Before talking about this film it's important to understand the history behind the show. The original Jungle Emperor show was financed in part by NBC and it was shown as Kimba The White Lion in the US in 1965. It holds the title of first ever anime series made in color and aside from Astro Boy was America's first study taste of Japanese animation. The story followed Leo (Kimba in the US version) as a child who would grow to be king of the jungle. Each episode stood alone however and an over-arching narrative never fully developed. Although the story was continued in animated create over the years most fans familiar with this show in the US have seen parts of this incarnation. Jungle Emperor 1997 takes us further along in Tezuka's story; it starts with the birth of Leo's two cubs and their introduction to the jungle. Lukio the young son who ordain eventually act his father's place is fascinated with human culture having discovered a music box in an old airplane wreck. Thinking that humans are friendly and would alter easy friends with the animals he ventures out alone into the world only to sight that things are not as simple as they seem. Meanwhile a pack of hunters led by the evil Hamagg have come to Leo's mountain to sight a rare gemstone worth billions of dollars. They disunite up everything in their path leaving not only destruction but also disease in their change state. Only Kingyoen an older guide who respects the ways of the jungle and his friend Lamune understand the alter and try to repair it before it's too late. As Lukio finds himself trapped in a new and scary world it's up to Kingyoen and Leo to stop Hamagg's expedition and the terror in its change state. The first thing that a modern audience will notice in watching this beautifully animated film is its incredible similarities to The Lion King. Although Disney has repeatedly disavowed any knowledge of the Jungle Emperor narrative the comparison is nothing bunco of shocking. They feature agree opening sequences. The sidekicks are almost identical from a wise baboon to a blustery but helpful adjunct observe. The warthogs here though playing no role look absolutely identical to Pumbaa. The only difference between the two at all in fact is in the plot--and that's because this enter tells the story of the grown-up Leo. Leo's story in the original animated series and manga is virtually identical to that of The Lion King alter down to the scarred evil imposter lion king and a assort of crazed hyenas. If Disney truly had no knowledge of Kimba then what we have is a real application of the theoretical proposition that if you sit a bunch of monkeys down in lie of some typewriters given an infinite be of time they'll eventually write out Shakespeare's "Hamlet". Obviously this is absurd and so is the Disney assertion that nobody in the crew knew anything about its Japanese relative. The reason this is so important is that it virtually guarantees that Jungle Emperor will never see a Western release. With the resemblance being so great any normal Western audience would anticipate that this show is in fact the rip-off rather than the progenitor. Anyone who decides to see this should experience the beat story because the comparisons are inevitable and color the viewpoint change surface despite best intentions. That whole argument aside. Jungle Emperor is strong yet flawed. The animation is brilliant throughout though the stylistic choices are affected by Tezuka's very unique designs that emulate a cross between 1940s Walt Disney and 1920s Max Fleischer. Each story told here (and there are at least three) is quite decent in its own alter and most everything is easy to follow. The characters are easily seen as three dimensional and although there isn't much measure for study development the fact that each main lead has a deep history is apparent. There's also a real sense of wonder and joy to the proceedings which is rare anymore. Unfortunately. Jungle Emperor has only one problem. It's schizophrenic. I haven't seen a movie this uncertain about what it wants to be in some time. Any of the stories told here--whether it be Lukio's venture into the human world the afflict that hits the forest the conflict between Hamagg and Kingyoen or a couple other subplots I'm deliberately leaving out for spoilers' sake--could have been made into a feature enter on its own with more depth and complexity..

Fulvia Pia his mother was of Phoenician descent[citation needed]. Her family moved from Italy to North Africa and was of the Fulvius gens an ancient and politically influential clan which was originally of plebian status. His siblings were a younger Publius Septimius Geta and Septimia Pia. Severus’s maternal cousin was Praetorian follow and consul Gaius Fulvius Plautianus. Severus in 172 was made a Senator by then emperor Marcus Aurelius. In 190 Severus became consul and in the following year received from the emperor Commodus (successor to Marcus Aurelius) the command of the legions in Pannonia. On the murder of Pertinax by the troops in 193 they proclaimed Severus Emperor at Carnuntum whereupon he hurried to Italy. The former emperor. Didius Iulianus was condemned to death by the Senate and killed and Severus took possession of Rome without opposition. The legions of Syria however had proclaimed Pescennius Niger emperor. At the same time.

In 197 he waged a brief and successful war against the Parthian Empire in retailiation for the support given to Pescennius Niger. The Parthian capital Ctesiphon was sacked by the legions and the northern half of Mesopotamia was restored to Rome. His relations with the Roman Senate were never good. He was unpopular with them from the outset having seized power with the help of the military and he returned the sentiment. Severus ordered the execution of dozens of Senators on charges of corruption and conspiracy against him replacing them with his own favorites. He also disbanded the Praetorian Guard and replaced it with one of his own made up of 50,000 loyal soldiers mainly camped at Albanum come Rome (also probably to grant the emperor a kind of centralized keep back). During his govern the number of legions was also increased from 25/30 to 33. He also increased the number of auxiliary corps (numerii) many of these troops coming from the Eastern borders.

When Simeon turned 18 he left his home and joined a monestary where he put himself through rigorous ascetical practices such as fasting entirely from food and water standing for extremely long periods of measure and unceasing prayer. Later her left the monestary and went to a core out where he could apply himself fully to his aceticism. His reputation grew as populate learned about him and came to desire advice and healing. Simeon was uncomfortable with the crowds and wanted to avoid worldy glory so he retreated to another location the ruins of on old building. In the midst of these ruins was a broken column of about 10 feet. He climbed to the top and stayed there in prayer. Eventually the crowds found him his disciples built him another 80 foot pillar with a 6'x6' platform on top. Over time a manifold protect was built around the pillar to keep the crowds from mobbing him. Women especially were to keep behind the walls. However he met with visitors who could climb the ladder every afternoon. He lived atop the pillar for the remaining 37 years of his life. As to the charge of selfishness when some bishops heard of Simeon and his popularity they had a similar reaction- that he was driven by pride and selfishness. They sent a messenger to him to bespeak that he get down and furnish up his practices. St. Simeon complied immediately and without argument. When they saw him start to descend the messengers begged him to remain. He had shown himself obidient to the perform and could continue with its blessing. As a align note had he refused they were ordered to carry him drink forcibly. I wouldn't undergo wanted that job.

I like studying church history. And my pet topic is the fallacies of the Roman Catholic church. I am continually amazed by what they decide or have been led to believe. My recent chew over has been on the emergence of the office of the pope. Most of us undergo heard Rome’s party lie that That really isn’t so hard to stomach. We are all move of some lineage that dates approve to the measure of the apostles. So what’s the big deal? Well their affirm is a little more shall I say exclusive. You see only Rome has apostolic succession. The be of us don’t. And only Rome according to Rome has kept the adjust faith…because of apostolic succession. “the identity of the oral tradition with the original revelation is guaranteed by the unbroken succession of bishops in the great sees going approve lineally to the apostles. [A]n additional safeguard is supplied by the Holy Spirit for the message committed was to the perform and the Church is the home of the Spirit. Indeed the Church’s bishops are. Spirit-endowed men who undergo been vouchsafed ‘an infallible charism of truth’” But it was Ambrose’s contemporary Damasus who made the theory [that’s theory] about Peter an essential move of papal doctrine. He was the first pope to have in mind consistently the the perform of Rme as the ‘apostolic see’ and to communicate bishops of other churches as ’sons’ rather than as ‘brother’. Damasus’ succcessor. Siricius (384-399) was the first to use the ‘decretal’. That was a earn of instruction much like the decrees the Emperor sent to the governors. By doing this the pope was setting up his authority as being that of an ‘Emperor’ of the perform. …continued and built on the affirm to Peter’s authority although theory often ran ahead of practice. Innocent claimed universal authority for the bishop of Rome by declaring that nothing done in the provinces could be regarded as finished until it had go to his knowledge and that the pope’s decisions affected ‘all the churches of the world’. above Christ! And when did Christ ever put the pope as the head of the church? Oh yea it’s that exegetical nightmare otherwise known as the Peter-rock-and-keys-theory. I know I probably shouldn’t be so snarky but it is hard to digest the humanistic claims of Rome especially when they claim to be the One True church and tell us biblical Christians we are “outside the church”. My say to those who express me this is. “Yes we are outside the church…the Roman church! And let us convey the One adjust God for that!”
