Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Thank you, Garrison, for that musical trip to Italy. Listening to those selections and closing my eyes, it was as if I was there… sitting in the warm Italian sun and sipping on a nice Tuscan wine or perhaps Lemoncello
Actually, Astor Pizzolla was from Argentina. He was famous (or infamous) for introducing jazz influenced “Tango Nuevo” to Argentina’s traditional national dance. 🙂
Morning, Garrison…late this morning. My mojo went walk about (in the Aussie vernacular)… coffee now, and your beautiful selections should coax it out of hiding😉…all blessings to you, my friend😘
Mornin’ Bet. Piazzolla was an interesting guy. He was born in Argentina but grew up in NYC so he spoke vernacular American English. His instrument is called a “Bandonion’ and is like an oversized accordion. Living in Argentina, he made a living playing in clubs, of course, but he also composed music for Argentine detective movies. A lot of his music sounds like he was thinking of a film score.
I knew he was from Argentina, which also produced the exquisite pianist Martha Argerich. The first South American classical performer I discovered was the Chilean pianist Claudio Arrau. So I have always been fascinated by composers, conductors, and performers in equal measure from that part of the world. Just thinking I
of the tenor from Peru Juan Diego Flores, who really stands out in Rossini operas.
And I always hear in my mind Piazolla’s music as background for movies such as those made based on Graham Greene’s novels, and, as you say film noire movies from the mid 20th century.
Happy Cursday, Treepers! 🙂
Good morning Garrison!

Individual Discouragement and Personal Growth
…when Moses was grown…he went out to his brethren and looked at their burdens. —Exodus 2:11
Moses saw the oppression of his people and felt certain that he was the one to deliver them, and in the righteous indignation of his own spirit he started to right their wrongs. After he launched his first strike for God and for what was right, God allowed Moses to be driven into empty discouragement, sending him into the desert to feed sheep for forty years. At the end of that time, God appeared to Moses and said to him, “ ‘…bring My people…out of Egypt.’ But Moses said to God, ‘Who am I that I should go…?’ ” (Exodus 3:10-11). In the beginning Moses had realized that he was the one to deliver the people, but he had to be trained and disciplined by God first. He was right in his individual perspective, but he was not the person for the work until he had learned true fellowship and oneness with God.
We may have the vision of God and a very clear understanding of what God wants, and yet when we start to do it, there comes to us something equivalent to Moses’ forty years in the wilderness. It’s as if God had ignored the entire thing, and when we are thoroughly discouraged, God comes back and revives His call to us. And then we begin to tremble and say, “Who am I that I should go…?” We must learn that God’s great stride is summed up in these words— “I AM WHO I AM…has sent me to you” (Exodus 3:14). We must also learn that our individual effort for God shows nothing but disrespect for Him— our individuality is to be rendered radiant through a personal relationship with God, so that He may be “well pleased” (Matthew 3:17). We are focused on the right individual perspective of things; we have the vision and can say, “I know this is what God wants me to do.” But we have not yet learned to get into God’s stride. If you are going through a time of discouragement, there is a time of great personal growth ahead.
WISDOM FROM OSWALD CHAMBERS
There is nothing, naturally speaking, that makes us lose heart quicker than decay—the decay of bodily beauty, of natural life, of friendship, of associations, all these things make a man lose heart; but Paul says when we are trusting in Jesus Christ these things do not find us discouraged, light comes through them.

“I learn from the mistakes of people who took my advice.”
Definitely NOT Dr Sowell, but ties in nicely, don’t you think?
Walter E. Williams is another paragon of realistic critical thinking, I have books from each of them in my library.

MORNING
From the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard. Dan. 10:12
Thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. Isa. 57:15
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. Psa. 51:17
Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off. Psa. 138:6
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. I Pet. 5:6
God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. Submit yourselves therefore to God. James 4:6, 7
Thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee. Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications. In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me. Psa. 86:5-7
EVENING
Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Matt. 6:10
Understanding what the will of the Lord is. Eph. 5:17
It is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish. Matt. 18:14
This is the will of God, even your sanctification. I Thess. 4:3
That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God. I Pet. 4:2
Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth: wherefore lay apart all filthiness. James 1:18, 21
Be ye holy; for I am holy. I Pet. 1:16
[Jesus] said, Whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother. Mark 3:34, 35
Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house and it fell not; for it was founded upon a rock. Matt. 7:24, 25
The world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. I John 2:17

PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
AMEN.

Cosmic Rays.
Cosmic rays are highly energetically charged particles of matter that can travel at speeds approaching that of light. They are not part of the spectrum of light such as X-rays, gamma rays, UV, because those are forms of energy and have no mass.
Most Cosmic rays are the nuclei of atoms but can also include other fragments of atoms such as electrons, positrons, etc. (electrons constitute about 1% of cosmic rays and positrons 1/10 of that). They cover the entire range of matter as described in the periodic table and occur in about the same proportion as observed in the universe with the exception of the rarest heavy elements which appear in more abundance than found in the universe.
Thus fragments of Hydrogen atoms, the most abundant element in the universe, make up about 89% of the cosmic rays with helium next at 10%, and all heavier elements making up the remaining 1%. The common heavier elements such as carbon, oxygen, magnesium, silicon, and iron are present in about the same proportions as found in the universe. But the rarer heavier elements such as lithium, beryllium, and boron and their isotopes appear in greater abundance than they are observed elsewhere in the universe. (Isotope (noun) · isotopes (plural noun)
Cosmic rays that strike the earths atmosphere come from three sources ranked from 1-3 below in quantity and the most energetic:
Starting from the least. Jupiter has a strong magnetic field. It is not fully understood why it emits these high energy particles of matter but the cyclic pattern of emission coincides with the 10 hour period of rotation of the planet.
Next is the sun. The quantity and intensity of emissions of cosmic rays from the sun varies a great deal depending on solar activity. Solar flares emit particles in greater quantity and having higher energy than normal conditions. This stream of ions and electrons is known as the solar wind.
GCRs- By far the highest energy particles comes from outside our solar system. A single nucleolus can impart as much kinetic energy as a baseball travelling at 100 mph. GCRs are produced by Supernovae and perhaps, other high energy explosive events in our Milky Way galaxy. A typical supernova explodes with the force of about 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 megatons of TNT. If all the nuclear weapons on earth were detonated at once it would not even be noticeable on this scale.
Since such high energy particles can literally shred our DNA the question is how do we, or any other life on this planet survive? The answer is primarily our Sun. The suns heliosphere (magnetic field and solar wind) is our primary protection from GCRs. The suns heliosphere extends out about 100 AU (AU=Astronomic Unit = the distance between the earth and sun). It shields the inner solar system from GCRs so that only a tiny fraction of the most highly energetic GCRs reach our atmosphere.
The higher the solar activity the stronger the protection the sun provides from GCRs. The further one travels from the sun the weaker the heliosphere and thus the greater the number of GCRs that penetrate.
The next post will describe how it is believed GCR’s effect our climate/weather.
Thank you Rah
Excellent summary
What about cosmic background radiation from the big bang?
I also enjoy your interesting trip reports.
The Cosmic background radiation we can detect is energy, not matter. The theory is that matter only started to form after things had cooled enough allow it. You will notice that I only described GCRs and not any from a source outside our galaxy.
Prayers up.
I know. Wrong season. I don’t care. I love English pastoral music and the landscapes they evoke. Between the music and the images it will drop 40 points off your blood pressure. Truth, beauty, and goodness, best tonics in the world.
Thanks for post… I always enjoyed English movies, especially when they went color, just to see country side like your pictures… music enhances view..😀👍

Don’t think AOC will be having a townhall for a time, unless the crowd is loaded with supporters.
Would someone please direct me to the posts regarding the Russia/Ukraine treaty or accord or agreement that’s the West was supposed to help enforce? It has to do with treatment of eastern Ukraine Russia speaking people.
I think you are describing the Minsk accords. Agreed to in 2014 and anew in 2015. But never honored by Ukraine. That was one of Putin’s initial asks. The Ukrainian Nazis of course attacked civilians every year. From 2014 on, they were even mobilizing to do it again this year.

I posted a comment Monday of this week, over on the AOS HQ on a thread about the Columbus”discovery” of the new world, I typed “columbus was lost”, another person replied “it’s not possible to get lost if you know where the sun comes up”, that is paraphrased, I’m guessing the humor was not recognized. chuckling
