Daniel’s 70 weeks lay out God’s plan for the nation, Israel (see Daniel 9:24-27). According to most scholars within both the Dispensational and Covenantal camps, the Messiah (Jesus) is cut off (crucified) after the 7 and 62 (7+62=69) weeks. These are weeks of years, not days. Dispensationalists teach a parenthesis (2000-year gap) between the 69th and 70th week, which becomes the church age of grace, essentially starting from Christ’s resurrection and extending all the way until the rapture of…

There are both the positive and negative effects of technology on presidential elections. Just 10 years ago elections and campaigning were completely different.

The two regions have both implemented conservation initiatives, and have a strong relationship with tourism. This paper will examine community conservation in the ACA (ACA) that draws on Hulme and Murphree 's (1999) idea of “new conservation”, which involves “the merging of conservation…

~O.o~ They don’t talk about it at work the next day. “How was the commute?” asks James when they meet in Julius’s office. “A child was conceived, carried to term, born and learned to ride a fucking bike in the time it took for me to reach this land of ineptitude,” snaps Julius and dismisses James. Thankfully, the ministers of Her Majesty’s Government are the same cock ups that they are the other three hundred and sixty four days of the standard year, which gives lots of people for James to…

As a result, they form an essential group of non-wood forest products (NWFPs) and are therefore a foundation to multi-billion industries worldwide. These plant…

The spiritual lives of indigenous people have long been of interest to outsiders, especially colonial occupiers. Indigenous spirituality, once evaluated as non-conforming to colonial powers’ pre-existing ideas of religion, was used as justification for the subjugation of indigenous peoples and the seizure of their lands. Interactions between the English and the Wampanoag, an indigenous nation whose members inhabit the eastern coast of what is now considered New England, can be categorized in…

The road of yellow brick is an element in the novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum, with additional such roads appearing in The Marvelous Land of Oz and The Patchwork Girl of Oz. The 1939 film The Wizard of Oz, based on the novel, gave it the name by which it is better known, the Yellow Brick Road (it is never referenced by that title in the original novel).
