: I have just a few final thoughts for the night: 1) I disclose that I'm not in the Trump camp, and I fully understand if I lose friends who are--while I'd like to just agree to disagree, I know that some'd not be satisfied with an agree-to-disagree approach. 2) NFL Commissioner Gooddell did what is right re Tom Brady. 3) The life changer is moving a little forward. 4) I will catch up later today on responding to messages, &c., should Yehovah will. 5) Watching Reilly and Camille bond has been amazing. 6) I know that (and remind me to tell how) HaRu'ach Yehovah was with me on my daily walk as He reminded me of 102-year-old Great-Grandma Czarnecki (Miryam Trudni'ak Tsharnetski bat Mikha'el Trudny'ak v'Chanah Amalyah Shlomi* Trudni'ak, z"l). Nine birthdays later and for eight years of February 12ths, she has awaited HaTechiyat HaMetim--she joined hametim hakedoshim b'Gan 'Eden on February 12, 2007. *BTW, her mother's original surname was (not "Monková", but actually) "Munková", feminine for the Czech Jewish dimunitive of "Shlomo"--"Munk[a]"--as Ancestry.com noted re "Munk[a]". Also BTW, a cousin told me that "Trudn[y]ak" came from Old Church Slavonic "trojdnik", "warrior". Whether of Yissachar ("...who understood the times..."), I don't know--though I, incidentally, do know that a Trudnyakov branch sadly was murdered in the Sho'ah in Odesa. 7) With that, laila tov/gute nacht/dobru noc.

Part Three

Meanwhile, we have our eyes on and prayers for Reilly--in fact, my eyes are on and prayers are for Reilly as I write this, and with my palms covered in anointing oil which I used to pray over Reilly and beseech Yehovah in regard to her--and pray for Reilly with me, that Yehovah would bless her and protect her and/or heal from Giardia. Yehovah willing, we'll find out if she has Giardia at her next appointment. By the way, continue to pray for Camille.

Part Two

...prayers, our and Mom's insistence on calling multiple Banfields, and my leveraging to get Camille an emergency appointment at our local Banfield worked--and I did not call to cancel when Camille seemed better. Had I called to cancel the appointment, we would have fatally mistaken Giardia for dehydration--and a just-in-case follow-up appointment affected caught-in-time, early-Stage-One Giardia to not turn into a terminal gastrointestinal infection that would've eventually taken a now-five-pound runt of her litter from us--and we loved (and love) the scrappy, belying-her-age-with-her-size, match-of-Reilly Camille too much to lose her due to any preventable occurence, such as Giardia. Also, Reilly would not be able to bear losing her closer-than-a-sister friend, whom is also Reilly's adoptive cousin and biological twice-removed cousin--since she is my sister's "dogter" and the daughter
of Apple's grandnice Tootsie...

Short Account Part One: Camille and Giardia

Needless to say, "the Giardia" is not an airport ("LaGuardia") or a pizza ("Digiorno")--as one sees per the earlier picture, the Giardia in question is one of many disease vectors. Upon diagnosis reception and research discovering, Michelle and I found out that Camille's lack of usual appetite, energy, digestive-normalcy, and comfort levels resulted from a parasite known as "Giardia". Therefore, my taking of Camille's pale-face picture, people's

A Hypocrisy Which I Don't Understand

How can certain loved ones of mine be against the decision of "Charlie Hebdo" to cease their portrayals of Muhammad, and how can they state that "Charlie Hebdo" is "caving in" to the Islamists? After all, they are attempting to ensure that I will not speak out against certain
other Anti Semites and racists.

My problem, then, is not with my loved ones' disagreement with the magazine: my problem is that they are doing to me exactly what they oppose that "Charlie Hebdo"'s editors are doing to themselves. How can they complain about, for example, the following re the Islamists when they complain about me fighting against particular groups whom support groups like "Charlie"'s enemies?

“We have drawn Muhammad to defend the principle that one can draw whatever they want. It is a bit strange though: we are expected to exercise a freedom of expression that no one dares to.”
I'm at a loss for words when they support "Je suis Charlie" at the same time that they tell me "Don't provoke crazies" and "Don't stir up the hornets' nest." While I'm not "Charlie", I'm certainly:


  1. Nicole
  2. Juive (i.e., Je suis Juive; or "אני יהודית.")
  3. Intent on not caving in to the Anti Semites
Meanwhile, God willing, I'll (so to speak) come back up from the underground eventually.

PS: Advice for the day, as I told a loved one: Do more than admitting that you need to work yourself. Start trying to do it. Even no fruit with worthy effort is better than even good fruit with no effort--after all, Paul had to plant and Apollos had to water, whether God grew or left ungrown--and no fruit with worthy effort is certainly better than bad fruit with even good effort.

Why I've Been Unable to Blog &c.. This Week

I apologize for not blogging much this week--and even having to delete three blog entries. Because of, e.g., family tension (and, e.g., Depression flareups as a result), busyness with Reilly and Camile, and a lack of time and space, I've just been unable to write--a case of "the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak" and "what I want to do, I don't do; and what I don't want to do, I do"--I'd love to, e.g., not feel tired, depressed, held back, and demotivated to write. I want to have energy, strength, freedom (e.g., time and space), and motivation to blog daily--and do other things--like I used to do. By the way, as usual and once again, I need prayers on my behalf--sorry to be a pain and bother.

As I Wrote For An Update on IMDB, and Per the AP On Twitter

Married to 34-year-old Alexis Roderick at the age of 66 years, he will have been married for the fourth time and a father to a second child. His expectant girlfriend and he were wed by [[Andrew Cuomo at the groomal manor on Independence Day 2015 in Long Island, New York-and the intimately-sized group of loved ones at the now-newlyweds' yearly Independence Day soirée (whom included to-be-older sister Alexa Ray Joel) were unexpectedly guests at the wedding of the soirée's host and his girlfriend of six years.

Humorously enough, the groom was married on the Fourth for the fourth time in a not-initially-forthright way.

Mazel tov to Mr. and Mrs. Billy Joel, and may the fourth time be a charm (at least for the sake of the child, if nothing else).

"Hark; the Herald Angels Sing" Reclaimed From Charles Wesley

This was written for a couple of reasons:


  1. The original lyrics are full of heresy and needed to be corrected. For example, Charles Wesley and the subsequent adapters of Wesley's lyrics claimed that Jesus was "heaven born" and "late in time". According to Tanakh (תנ''כח or תנ''כה for Messianics), however, Jesus was the "Only Begotten Son" and "born of a woman" whom was to be a virgin. 
  2. I've been thinking about this since Christmas in December. It is now Christmastime in July.
  3. Felix Mendelssohn was a Jewish believer. Ironically, he "felt unsuited to sacred music" the melody that we use today! Thus, stripping the Jewish context of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing!" is inappropriate! 



Hark; the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the King of Kings!"
Unto us is born a Child
Unto to God, we're reconciled! 

Joyful, all ye nations rise!
Join the triumph in the skies!


With angelic hosts, proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem!"
Hark; the herald angels sing, 
"Glory to the King of Kings!"

Bless the virgin-born Prince of Peace!
Bless the Sun of Righteousness! 
Light to those in darkness He brings—
Ris'n with healing in His wings!

The King of Kings departs His throne
To live and die like His own

And to raise the sons of man
Given to Him, the I AM!
Hark; the herald angels sing, 
"Glory to the King of Kings!"

Christ by His elect adored
Christ the Everlasting Lord
As promised, behold He's here!
Unto us, our God draws near!
The Son Whom's Begotten, not made
With the wicked, He made his grave

And from the grave, He arose
And gave new life to the dry bones  
Hark; the herald angels sing, 
"Glory to the King of Kings!"





I Knew That The World Views Christianity, Especially Jewish Christianity, As Criminal

With all due respect to Gretchen Carlson​, I had to cringe at the headline when I saw it (Skimming the article made me cringe more.). If she didn't know that the world considers Christianity to be criminal, I don't know what Bible she's reading. The Bible that I've read unequivocally states that the world will hate Christians, especially Jewish Christians. e.g.:

"9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come."

"16 “Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. 17 But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues. 18 You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. 19 But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; 20 for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you."

(From Matthew 24 and 10, New King James Version​, respectively)

Now, are there exceptions among those of the world? Yes:

" I wrote to you in my epistle not to keep company with sexually immoral people. 10 Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world. 11 But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner—not even to eat with such a person."

(From 1 Corinthians 5)

Gamali'el was an exception; and despite that a myth that he became a Jewish Christian persists, he was tolerant of Jewish Christians (Sadly, the myth comes from a misinterpretation of his tolerance.):

"33 When they heard this, they were furious and plotted to kill them. 34 Then one in the council stood up, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law held in respect by all the people, and commanded them to put the apostles outside for a little while. 35 And he said to them: “Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do regarding these men. 36 For some time ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody. A number of men, about four hundred, joined him. He was slain, and all who obeyed him were scattered and came to nothing. 37 After this man, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the census, and drew away many people after him. He also perished, and all who obeyed him were dispersed. 38 And now I say to you, keep away from these men and let them alone; for if this plan or this work is of men, it will come to nothing; 39 but if it is of God, you cannot overthrow it—lest you even be found to fight against God.”"

(From Acts 5)

By the way, one of the blessings of finding about my Jewish heritage is that I've had my eyes open to just how much the world really does hate Christianity, and that hate stems back to when Pilate maliciously blamed the murder of Jesus on Jews—read the Jewish Virtual Library​ article on Pontius Pilate to see what Pontius Pilate's talk about Jesus being innocent really meant, and you will find that Pilate was sarcastic and Anti Semitic. What should have been obvious to me and others a long time ago, by the way, is that Pilate would not have crucified a man whom he really believed to be innocent. Besides, his reaction after "Ein lanu melekh aval Qeisar [We have no king but Caesar]" was a way of saying, "Oh, ****. I can't get them riled up enough. Besides, they're reminding me that Caesar is my boss. ****; I wanted to cause a riot and make those Jews look bad, though (****) they outsmarted me."^

Remember, too, that we did not know. We thought that Jesus fit Deuteronomy 13, and Paul told Timothy as much for his part in his first letter to him:

"And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry, 13 although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. 14 And the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant, with faith and love which are in Christ Jesus."

(From 1 Timothy 1)

My point being, Christianity has been criminal since the time that Pilate scapegoated Jews—and really, ever since Anti Semitism has existed.

^Incidentally, "murder" is a mistranslation in Acts 5:30 in the New King James Version
