The Classical Saturday Morning Coffee Break & Prayer Revival

IMG_5921.jpg

(Meme H/T Lurker/Infrequent Commentor, French Jeton)

(Music Ideas H/T Hadrian the Seventh)


*****


Good morning Horde. Do you need stimulating facts about coffee? Sure, I knew you did.

12 Stimulating Facts About Coffee


ccording to Ethiopian legend, the first beings to get a java jolt were a herd of goats who nibbled on the fruit of a coffee shrub; a goat herder named Kaldi quickly followed their lead. While it’s unclear whether Kaldi and his caprines truly discovered coffee, today the brewed beverage is one of the most widely consumed drinks in the world. Introduced to America in the mid-17th century, coffee quickly replaced heavily taxed tea as a more patriotic staple during the fight for independence. In the time since, soldiers have relied on coffee to boost morale overseas, children of U.S. Presidents have founded their own coffeehouses, and American coffee brands have expanded across the globe. Can’t get enough coffee? Discover 12 amazing facts you might not know about this beloved morning beverage.

Before we enter the Prayer Revival there are just a few housekeeping matters to take care of. (Rulz for those of you in Neillsville, WI)


  • 1) This is an open thread. Please feel free to lurk, opine and/or bloviate away the morning.
  • 2) Be nice and polite. And please don't jump on the furniture.
  • 3) No running with sharp objects, unless you want a time out.
  • 4) Have a nice weekend!

    Annie does a great job compiling the Prayer List for the Revival. Thank you Annie. You do make a difference here at the AoSHQ.


    AoSHQ Weekly Prayer List

    Please submit any prayer requests to me, “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo atsign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update.

    Prayer Requests:

    4/27 – JW asked for prayers for Libby, who has a glioblastoma tumor that affects her word choices, so communication is very difficult. Libby has had surgery, radiation, and chemo, but is worse in the 4 weeks since treatment ended.
    5/13 Update – The MRI showed that her tumor started growing aggressively as soon as the treatment stopped, plus she has 2 new inch-sized tumors near the treatment area. She is almost completely unable to communicate and feels very alone because of that. Her prognosis has changed from 18 months to maybe 4. Thank you to all who are praying for this total stranger.

    5/11 – Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd sent thanks for the prayers for his daughter and grandchildren, at the death of the children’s father. The family began tackling the financial side of the situation last week, and learned that because of various programs, his ex-son-in-law will provide support for his children in death that he never was likely to do in life, which is a blessing. This in turn opens a path forward for Lloyd’s daughter and her children to have a place of their own.

    5/11 – Tonypete asked for prayers for #4 son. 5/11 was his wedding day, and he asked R. to stand with him. She isn’t his birth mom but raised him after T. died.

    5/11 – Taq, rickrolled by Jesus sent thanks to the Horde for praying for his mother the last couple of months. Her fractured hip has healed and she is walking, albeit slowly and with a cane, again. He has made several modifications to the house to make it suitable for her. She spent a month in a nursing home, one of the better ones in the community. Taq and his father spent 12 hours a day there, and half the nurses were kind and full of compassion and half were slow, lazy factory workers who seemed to resent the residents. They also resented Taq and his dad being in their workspace. Taq is grateful that God brought him here, because if he hadn’t ended up in a hospital in 2019 from alcohol, he wouldn’t be here taking care of his folks.

    5/11 – Jewells said the chemo break doesn’t seem to be helping. The swelling in her feet and legs is terrible, and they don’t have an answer. When she goes back on 6/11, if the doctor doesn’t have any other options, she is considering stopping treatment.
    5/11 Update – Jewells is feeling much better now that a liter of fluid has been removed from around her lungs.

    5/11 – RedMindBlueState asked for prayers for a friend since age 5, who just lost her husband suddenly. Prayer for her and for her boys are appreciated.

    5/11 – Mollo, lurker requested prayers for a 7-year-old named Eli who suffered a stroke. Right now he can’t talk and the right side of his body isn’t working. Pray for healing for Eli and strength for his family.

    5/11 – J asked for prayers for his wife, who has been experiencing debilitating migraines for years. J prays for her. The kids pray for her. The doctors have done what they think they can do within what they know to do. Maybe she needs prayer more than anything? (Is there any doubt?)

    5/14 – Nearsider has a job! This afternoon, Nearsider received and accepted an offer to work as a federal contractor. He will begin on 6/3, and will make approximately 80% of his previous salary. Thank you for all the prayers, concerns, well-wishes, and reach0outs. A very particular thank you to those of you who have hired me to build model aircraft for you – they’re all still going to get done, I promise.

    5/14 – DaveT sent an update. We have been praying for the lawsuits related to his home (that a relative took loans out against) and his elderly cats. He has a GiveSendGo set up to help with the costs; please contact Annie for that information. He sends his thanks for the prayers.

    5/15 – PabloD requested prayers for Nick. Nick was going to commit suicide, but called a help line and received care. Prayers for strength for him and support from his family are still needed.

    5/17 – Grumpy and Recalcitrant asked for prayers for J.J. Sefton of the Morning Report. Please pray that his upcoming surgery and recovery would go very well and that he retains full mental and physical function, and can enjoy the rest of his life without worries.
    6/3 Update – J.J. sends his thanks for the prayers, kindness, and support. The pathology report showed the tumor was grade 4 glioblastoma. Essentially, that means he has brain cancer. The next steps are chemo and radiation in hope of staving off a recurrence, and prolonging whatever time he has left, and maintaining the best possible quality of life.

    5/18 – P asked for prayers for his brother, who just revealed that he is suffering from stage 4 lung cancer that has spread to his lymph nodes. The outlook is not good. P prays that he remembers God is with him, notwithstanding his diagnosis.

    5/18 – Dash my lace wings! asked for prayers for D, who is in ICU due to a heart attack, and for her husband, R, who is a veteran and a lover of cats and bad jokes, who will be lost if he loses her.
    6/1 Update – D is out of the hospital and recovering well for now.

    5/18 – Tonypete requested prayers for Carole across the street. She is a delightful 80 year old. Previously she was in great shape, very active. A few weeks ago she took ill and turned out to have previously undiagnosed heart troubles. They hurriedly replaced a valve but it didn’t go well. She continues to leak blood and now needs open heart surgery. She is tiny – no more than 90 pounds - and they fear she will not survive.

    5/18 – Screaming in digital will be taking a trip to England. She would like prayers for her mom while she’s gone, and blessings for her sweet cousin who will be looking after mom, and her awesome neighbors who will be taking care of her cat and keeping an eye on the house.

    5/20 – Sponge requested prayers for Lady, who had a mammogram this week and they found a mass. She has a biopsy scheduled soon, but won’t know the results until early June. She’s taking it well but is quite nervous, as to be expected. Please put her in your prayers for a clean bill of health.
    6/4 Update – The biopsy revealed cancer.

    5/22 – Vmom stabby stabby stabby stabby asked for prayers. She has been in the hospital since Monday with sudden dizziness and emesis. They’ve ruled out stroke. They have noticed nystagmus and it might be BPPV. She is scared she won’t be able to function anymore.
    6/1 Update – Vmom sends thanks for the prayers while she was in the hospital last week. She is so grateful to be home, back at work, and going to vestibular rehab therapy for her inner ear woes.

    5/23 – Olddog in mo could use some prayers. He is going in for surgery again at 10 am. Squamous cell carcinoma under the tongue. It is not a good location due to the proximity to a salivary gland.
    5/24 Update – Olddog sent his thanks for the prayers. Surgery went better than expected. No skin graft and so no overnight stay. Flash biopsy was negative.

    5/25 – Matthew Kant Cipher requested prayers for his older brother, who was admitted to the hospital with a bowel blockage. It doesn’t sound too serious, but one never knows. He also sends prayers of gratitude for each reader, and for all His incredible blessings which surround us. May our eyes and hearts be opened to clearly recognize His love for us.
    6/1 Update – His brother’s hospital stay was brief and his bowel blockage resolved itself naturally. The Horde prayers were answered and are most sincerely appreciated!

    5/25 – Tonypete asked for prayers for an elderly neighborhood couple. They are in failing health and abilities. They insist on living independently, yet they can’t do it. Tonypete and his wife are torn between respecting their wishes and privacy, but there are numerous LEO wellness checks each week.
    6/1 Update – Please continue to pray. The neighbors are still resistant to moving to assisted living. A competency hearing is coming soon.

    5/25 – Mindful webworker sent a prayer of thanks for the prayers of the Horde. He is alive and 90% well and 100% grateful for that. He will have more surgery ahead. He also sends thanks for MiladyJo’s hip fixes seem to have worked very well with no complications. She is getting around fine, which is such a blessing after her long time of pain and mobility limitations.

    5/25 – Cybersmythe sent word that he got a job! It pays well, but it’s by the Space Center (100+ miles round trip and the traffic sucks). It should be interesting work.

    5/25 – Neverenoughcaffiene asked for prayers for all people affected by the barbarity of Hamas.

    5/25 – NaCly Dog sent an update, that his wife (who we prayed for last month) is almost back to where she was before she broke 4 ribs.

    5/25 – Martini Farmer asked for prayers for his grandson, who will probably not graduate from high school due to poor grades. His family is (to put it nicely) “dysfunctional”. He will be here for about a month before summer school, and will be at a non-woke YMCA camp for 3 weeks. Hopefully his perspective will change.

    5/25 – Tecumseh Tea gave an update on Pastor Joe, who we prayed for when he had brain surgery in February. He recently had an MRI, and his doctor is very concerned. He has to go for more tests. Please pray for him and his family. His answer to how he felt about this new development was: “In the words of King David, May I dwell in the house of the Lord forever”.
    6/5 – Tecumseh Tea sent praise to God that Pastor Joe’s recent concerning test results turned out to be an infection, which is being treated.

    5/25 – R posted that he got a call from his doctor’s office that recent tests found blood …. uh…. where it shouldn’t be found. Now he has more tests coming.

    5/25 – Nurse Ratched sent thanks for the prayers from a couple of weeks ago. She is healing nicely.

    5/29 – Sponge asked for prayers as he is having a biopsy. He said the next 5-7 days will be rough.

    6/1 – Polliwog the ‘Ette requested prayers for her sister C, who has surgery to remove some ovarian cysts and anything else in there that looked suspicious. Now she has to wait for the pathology report, and recover, which is complicated by her being extremely allergic to “all” opiods. Also, she is the family’s main earner, and her disability will only cover about 40% of what she brings in.

    6/1 – Tonypete asked for prayers for his BIL, who is cognitively disabled. He lives alone and normally does pretty well, but recently quit his job, which has led to issues: namely money. Social services are involved, but it isn’t going well.

    6/1 – G asked for prayers for healing and strength for Uncle Joe. Joe’s wife of 50 years passwed earlier this year, and now Joe is having painful back problems. He is in pain and lost without Sally.

    6/5 Teresa in Fort Worth requested prayers for friends, Chris and Debby, whose 22 year-old son (Jeremy) passed away this week. Jeremy choked on food at his daytime facility. He had Down Syndrome and autism, and was non-verbal. His parents know he is in a better place and finally free of his health issues, but they still could use comfort.

    Every moment of every day, except when I was climbing down the top bunk ladder at the Coverack hostel at 2 am to pee.

    Even when I sunk ankle-deep into mud on the coastal paths and then encountered stinging nettles for the first time.

    And especially when we sang sea shanties in the meadow at Kynance Cove.

    Yes, I didn't want to leave Cornwall and already planning to go back to hike the coastal paths for #2weeks or as much as I can afford.

    Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us...

    Going to work the Quilt Show here today. I entered one this year, and it was gratifying to see it on display, although I am a Pee-wee Leaguer compared to the NFL players around here.

    Mr. S went to the local rodeo last night. There was a cute little cowboy in the next row with his parents. He was all decked out in his little boots, hat, pearl snap shirt and Mutton Busting belt buckle, but didn't do too well in this year's competition.

    62 I'm sure, by now, most here are aware of the death of former astronaut Bill Anders. A brilliant engineer, he is the one who snapped the famous Earthrise photograph during the 1968 Apollo 8 mission as the command module circled the moon. He died when the plane he was piloting crashed in the sea off of Washington State.

    Apollo 8 was also known for the reading of Genesis on Christmas Eve, live from the Apollo 8 command modue. Rest In Peace, Astronaut Anders.

    I was in the army, home on leave for one week, and still remember that as if it was yesterday. Even then, there were people complaining about it. 1968, unfortunately, was the pivotal year, when the country began a very rapid change. Sadly, it accelerated at warp speed after that.

    Continued prayers also for our next door neighbors. They are very frail and elderly and are way past the point where they can care for themselves with safety. R. and I have been subpoenaed to give testimony at a competency hearing in a few weeks called by their children. The parents are fighting going to an assisted care facility.

    79 This being the Prayer Thread, I have a theological question.

    The other day while driving around, I noticed a United Methodist Church with the "trans" banner on its sign and next door a Lutheran one with the now-obsolete "pride" sticker on its sign.

    Question for the body: at this late date, is there any reason those denominations shouldn't just merge into the Woke Church? I mean, do the theological differences between Methodism and Lutheranism have any significance in the current age?

    Luther wanted to return to what he imagined to be the simplicity of the "early Church," which apparently means sodomy these days. Similarly, the Wesleyan desire to break free of High Church Anglicanism to find personal holiness now includes intersex threesomes. Just trying to figure all this out.

    I've said it before: for Israel to be committing war crimes, someone has to show me Hamas troops in uniforms with clear rank structures, formal units, etc. If not, they're bandits and the military/civilian distinction does not exist.

    The whole point of uniforms was to protect noncombatants. If you don't wear them, you're telling us you don't care.

    When I hear the lachrymose moralizing of the Western NPCs about the put-upon Arabs of Gaza, I always laugh a little just beneath the surge of anger.

    Never in history did G-d make more ignorant people who were more sure of their expertise than on this particular topic. If any of these self-satisfied dumbfucks ever visited Gaza for *even one day,* they'd shut up about it forever.

    These pompous hothouse flowers nearly never set foot in Gaza, even when they go to Israel to take the might of their incessant puling to the enemy. It's too scary.

    But if they did, it would instantly disabuse them of their carefully cultivated ignorance, and their basic assumptions about human nature... We're talking about people so very foreign they almost qualify as alien beings.

    The truths we take for granted about people, their desires, their motivations, and their reasoning simply don't bear up to testing in that environment.

    113 Apollo 8, to me, was much more dramatic than even the landing on the moon. Consider: They were the first men to leave Earth orbit, to travel to and swing around another body in the Solar System, and thus to travel vastly farther from Earth than anyone in history. That stands on its own. Apollo 11, yes, they landed on that body . . . but the "8" astronauts had blazed the trail.

    And if something had gone wrong, there would have been no rescue.

    On top of that you had the Christmas timing and the reading from Genesis -- truly epic drama.

    136 Last of the brood graduated high school Tuesday. Aside from the fact this is one of the kids who won't talk to us we went. Going to these kinds of ceremonies I am reminded that many things are exceedingly normal. Parents there celebrating their children's milestones. Girls in sundresses. The Pledge of Allegiance and the Star Spangled Banner and a recognition of the graduates going into the services and to veterans in attendance. Even despite the fact that the majority of the crowd was Arab or Indian.

    Only references to him or her no other made up genders. Cheering for achievements.

    The case for gun control would be a lot stronger if the people pushing for it weren't letting people who used guns in crimes back out on the street to kill some more.

    I know a few people who want to "do something" about gun crime, but everyone one of them admits that the first, most obvious step would be stronger enforcement of existing laws. When our (now former) county prosecutor bolding announced that she would not prosecute people caught with unregistered handguns during traffic stops ("it's a paper crime"), that gave the game away, and she was promptly replaced.

    There's also the problem that the "exemplar" crimes that are supposed to prove the need for gun control always end in mystery. There's a storm of outrage and then the facts start to come out and the media suddenly loses interest.

    181 BREAKING: 9th Circuit Court of Appeals Rules mRNA COVID-19 Jab is NOT a Vaccine Under Traditional Medical Definitions

    / Disclaime - Gateway Lede

    The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has delivered a seismic decision that could reshape public health policy across the nation.

    In a contentious case involving the Health Freedom Defense Fund and other plaintiffs versus the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), the court has declared that mRNA COVID-19 injections do not qualify as vaccines under traditional medical definitions.

    The case revolved around the LAUSD’s COVID-19 vaccination policy, which required all employees to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 by a specified deadline.

    The plaintiffs argued that the district’s vaccine mandate infringed upon their fundamental right to refuse medical treatment, as the mRNA injections do not prevent the transmission of COVID-19 but merely mitigate symptoms for the recipient.

    ==================

    This was the 9th Circus...
    ... so will probably be overturned by the "apolitical' SCROTUS to smooth the troubled waters.

    Michigan has a handgun registry supposedly to reduce violence and keep guns from "the wrong" people. Alas, the violators of this statute skew to certain ethnic groups, and the prosecutor didn't like that.

    She could have advocated repealing a "racist" law, but instead decided not to enforce it - all the while calling for more gun control. That's why she was bounced by her own party - she gave the game away.

It’s because he’s better at building the Byzantine coalitions needed to rule in Israel’s dysfunctional political system than anyone else ever has been.

    Our parish sends out calendars with all the feast/fasting days marked on it, but right after Easter a reminder went out that while American Bishops have relaxed Friday fasting/meat rules, they are not eliminated. This was news to me!

    So normally on Friday I now fast over lunch in order to have meat with dinner. Yesterday, I forgot about the solemnity but my daily emails clued me in, so I was able to cobble together a lunch.

    I rather like all the rules because it makes you think more about God, saints, and the timeless rhythms of life and less about the usual insanity of politics.

    306 A predominantly Black neighborhood in Hartford, CT, hoping to fend off violent crime, has turned to an armed group of citizens to patrol their streets by land and by air.
    The “Self-Defense Brigade” — made up of about 40 legally armed citizens — are patrolling the streets wearing body cameras mostly on nights and weekends, according to Cornell Lewis.

    When the armed volunteers are not on the streets, the group monitors video feeds from a dozen drones hovering over the neighborhood, and 75 home surveillance cameras in the neighborhood. “

It seems to me after high profile trials they usually get one or more or the whole jury on some TV show to ask about deliberations etc…. From the biggest trial ever I’m hearing crickets. Maybe the media’s not interested because they know if they dig too much into these people they’ll find one or more (probably 10-12) of them are afflicted with stage 4 TDS and went in intending to convict. Wouldn’t want evidence of their prior bias to be publicized….

    Posted by: Bulgaroctonus at June 08, 2024 10:45 AM (v6JzV)


    Easy.

    For thousands of years the eating of meat was a rare luxury for the bulk of humanity, a huge indulgence, if you will.

    It was thought that since Christ was crucified for our sins on a Friday that we could show our gratitude and humility for that sacrifice by performing the small sacrifice of fasting on Fridays and specifically not indulging in the great luxury of eating meat.

    If that bothers you though, don't worry. Our Betters will soon do away with meat, and it will become Cricket-less Fridays.

    348 "The Hamas-run health officials in Gaza said at least 50 Palestinians were killed in the IDF operation to free four hostages from captivity in Gaza. Hamas radio claimed as many as 80 were killed..."

    Applying the hamas-hole bullshit filter: " a dozen terrorists were killed in the rescue operation". Not enough, in any case.

    And hamas-holes still have a radio station? Why is it still on the air? Surely the transmitter could be located and destroyed.

    The narrative is that their lives would be at risk from MAGA terrorists if they were interviewed and people then knew who they were.

    Seriously.

    What bothered me was the co-worker who would microwave her damned Friday fish. The break room smelled like low tide on a hot day.

    We used to vacation at Ocean City, MD along the back bay. In order to get to the beach and boardwalk we had to walk past two dumpsters from a seafood restaurant that had been percolating in the hot sun for hours. As close as you can come to hurling as it gets. Seagulls unable to fly because of the woodies they were sporting.

    / I may have made the last line up.

    358 I know a few people who want to "do something" about gun crime, but everyone one of them admits that the first, most obvious step would be stronger enforcement of existing laws. When our (now former) county prosecutor bolding announced that she would not prosecute people caught with unregistered handguns during traffic stops ("it's a paper crime"), that gave the game away, and she was promptly replaced.

    There's also the problem that the "exemplar" crimes that are supposed to prove the need for gun control always end in mystery. There's a storm of outrage and then the facts start to come out and the media suddenly loses interest.

    There is a handgun registry? Where? There ought not be any firearms registry, as that is Step One on the road to confiscation. Now, if an individual found in possession of a handgun at a traffic stop is found to be on the prohibited list, that is a horse of a different color.

    360 That Virgin Galactic - the squeaky voice guy uses one of my pet peeve words - basically.

    They are contrasting re-entry from orbit versus from sub-orbital heights. They keep saying this is so cool since they actually pilot the vehicle. I guess they don't know how the Space Shuttle was brought in to land.
    The speeds are already so different: >20,000 mph vs Mach 3 or similar.

    I imagine the distance from eastern Ukraine to Moscow is roughly comparable to the distance from Cuba to Washington DC so I imagine Putin will put that into play soon.

    But 'the adults are in charge now' - apparently too young to have read about the events of 1962.

    367 The Pledge of Allegiance and the Star Spangled Banner and a recognition of the graduates going into the services and to veterans in attendance.

    This is a new thing (at least to me). In the HS graduations I saw in my day (to include my own yawner) this wasn’t done. When I went to my niece’s graduation last year, just before the time for the school board members to make it about them and mug for the mike, the principal specifically recognized those who enlisted or were going to one of the academies.
