![]() What was once considered decadent is now a common sign of appreciation or affection.įlowers are a beautiful way for Christians to show their faith and celebrate life’s special moments. Flowers and plants symbolize God’s generosity – His outpouring of truth, beauty, and goodness for all of Creation.Ĭhristianity used to associate flowers with an immoral lifestyle, but now they’re loved and appreciated all over the world as a symbol of God’s creation and how He cares for each of us. Symbols of Christianity, such as religious icons, are seen as sacred emblems with special significance. They add another layer to our understanding by giving these ideas life through their beauty and power. Plants and trees have a significance that goes beyond every day – they are often used in Christianity as symbols of faith or icons representing abstract concepts, characters, colors, and more. Thanks.Flowers in the Bible and Their Meanings and Symbolism One last thing: please don’t keep posting “holy cow.” I let my daughters read this and I don’t want words taken in vain to be what they have to wade through to get to the message. I would never buy a calendar, note cards, or wall plaque with anything but King James words. I have to say, because I am one of the old people on the forum, that it should all be King James verses. The most important thing, everyone, is that you want to put Scripture with objects of beauty that God created. It’s not in focus enough for me to understand what I am looking at. Isn’t there a trick something like: take pictures of flowers on a solid background and then use Photoshop to remove the background color?īen, I am still wondering what the little white object is on the wood. Even if you had to take five separate pictures and rotate and arrange them, it would be more authentic, I think. ![]() While that’s “legal” (I do it with clip art when making an invitation for a baby shower or something), it’s still sort of lacking the umph that you would get with arranging five different flowers in a curve. And I am sure that this is just the same flower, copied, resized, and slightly rotated. On the curved garland, I always look to see if the multiple flowers are actually one flower. I’m sure they are trying to make the verse stand out, but the blah background is disappointing. Our pastor sends out a daily verse that he receives from somewhere and my constant complaint about the background photos is that they are sort of muddy in color. I like Lydia’s flower because it is not only partly in focus, but it is also bright. ![]() P.s Get CRAZY with those fonts! Go outside the box and try something new! □ which was impressive that you cropped to one side! That’s very unique! Like that one has exceptions but, really for all intents and purposes you should be complimenting, not trying to fill all of your photo up. Sayings like, “I didn’t want anything to be in focus” sometimes provokes doubt early off, and you should always stand by your photos, cause this one is great! □ You should also really for all intents and purposes again not have all of your writing fill up this entire photo. Does that make sense? The writing should compliment the photo, not take its place. One aspect of the photo should always be in focus, no matter what, I have photo’s where the entire photo’s blurred but one leaf, but you should always have something for your viewers to focus in on, that should also always be something other than the writing. You should almost never, and certainly never without checking with other people have your photo out of focus. Now a little personal critique from me □. Hey Eliana! I wanted to say what an amazing photo! I was very drawn into this from the beginning, and your passion for scripture in this makes this just that more special for me.

![]() Correctly oriented, the boats plunge forward down a 28 foot (8.5 meter) flume into the stormy North Sea. ![]() The backwards edge of the boat peeks out through the facade as the track pivots to let the vehicle travel forward again. The boats float briskly past scenes of polar bears and living trees, before coming to a stop on the edge of another waterfall, exposed to the Norway pavilion's main thoroughfare. The trolls, angered by the trespassing boat, cast a spell onto the riders which causes the vehicle to start the rapid backwards portion of the ride, accelerated by hidden conveyor belts underneath the water's surface. The boats then enter a marsh where they are found face to face with audio-animatronic depictions of Dökkálfar and Ljósálfar. Visitors find themselves transported back to a mythological version of Norway's Viking days, passing through scenes of seafarers and maritime villages in order to demonstrate the importance of the sea in Norwegian culture. ![]() As the boats arrive at the top of the hill, they pass under a mysteriously lit face of the God Odin. A voice tells the riders that those who seek the spirit of Norway find adventure and peril. Here is a description of the attraction from wikipedia:Īs the boat departs from the dock, it turns a corner into a dark tunnel and up the flume's lift hill. Maelstrom is one of the best rides in Epcot's World Showcase, and involved a section where the viking boat vehicle travels rapidly backwards. The ride is a mix between a log chute and a traditional dark ride film attraction which involves park guests ride small Viking ships through various scenes with audio-animatronic figures. Maelstrom opened in July 1988, and is located in the Norway pavilion of the World Showcase at the Epcot theme park at Walt Disney World Resort. ![]() Mehaffey then worked in Ocala, at Crawling Panther, but most of his customers traveled from Gainesville. “It was a situation where there were too many chiefs and not enough Indians,” he said. Mehaffey started out at Cool World Tattoos and Body Tech before helping open Anthem in 2006. Everything I do is related to tattooing.” “I was married when I started tattooing and was divorced a year later,” Mehaffey said. He graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.īy the time he was 26, tattooing consumed him. ![]() He also did some religious sculptures, such as three-dimensional sacred hearts. ![]() In college, Mehaffey created kinetic sculptures-like a heart spewing flames out of its ventricles. He worked construction and welding jobs to get through school. Mehaffey grew up in South Florida but also lived in New England before moving to Gainesville to attend UF. “They’ll say ‘I want this tattoo of a rose with my whole family’s names on every petal and the year I graduated and my dog’s footprints in the middle and my birth year in the thorns…’”Ī pet peeve of Mehaffey’s is when clients won’t accept input or when they bring someone with them who’s watched too many episodes of Ink Master on Spike because “They think they know everything about tattoos by watching the show.” “We call it ten pounds of crap in a five-pound bag,” he said. More common is customers trying to cram too many ideas into a single tattoo. It’s been quite a few years since Mehaffey has had to deal with that issue. “I’ll say to them, ‘Man, you’re going to ruin your life.’” My job is to make sure that I give them a tattoo that’s going to look good for the rest of their lives.” “You have to dig down to get motivated to do the same image for the 900 th time, like a feather turning into a bird, but your name is on it regardless.” One of Little Mike’s recent designs. “Sometimes you’ve done a hundred infinity symbols, or whatever’s hot on Pinterest,” he said. Mehaffey insists on giving customers tattoos they want, even if the idea is not all that original. Death or Glory stays up with the latest trends-whether it’s the zombie kit, the earth-tone collection or glow-in-the-dark inks. More than ever, social media is helping to drive the tattoo business. “The Navy was a big part of keeping tattooing alive during World War II,” Mehaffey said. The display window at the front of the shop is a shrine to the art of tattooing with such vintage items as brass knuckles, switchblades and old tattoo stencils. “Our shop harkens back to a different era,” he said. At the 2015 Jacksonville Tattoo Convention, Death or Glory earned first place in the “Best Traditional” category. ![]() As to be expected, some are quick and cheap.Īccording to Mehaffey, what sets Death or Glory apart is an old-school street approach by tattoo artists who respect tradition while using the most current methods and materials. Half of them are on the mile-long stretch of University Avenue between the University of Florida campus and downtown. More than a dozen are listed in the Yellow Pages. “Knowing the fundamentals makes a good tattoo artist.” Death or Glory Tattoo Parlour on East University Avenue.īeing a college town, Gainesville doesn’t lack for tattoo shops. “It takes a true craftsman to put ink in skin,” Mehaffey said. He oversees a small crew dedicated to preserving tattooing as an art form. Today, the 38-year-old Mehaffey answers to “Little Mike” and owns Death or Glory Tattoo Parlour in downtown Gainesville. “It takes a true craftsman to put ink in skin.” “I was instantly in love with the idea of getting tattoos.” “It’s the age-old story of people my age skateboarding and hanging out in punk clubs,” he said. For Mehaffey, however, it was only the beginning of a lifelong love affair with body art. The humiliating episode might have scarred some teens. “She saw the tattoo and started screaming, ‘I can’t believe you did that!’” “I was sitting down and my mom woke me up,” he said. “It was completely illegal.”Ī few weeks later, an exhausted Mehaffey fell asleep in his backyard after a long afternoon of chores. “I had skipped school to get the tattoo from a biker named Eddie,” Mehaffey recalled.

Basically this Avatar person brought peace to the galaxy long enough for the different cultures to prepare for the race. Once the team arrives at the first planet they are brought to the opening ceremony and introduced to the way things are in the race. Joining Don and Molly are Rick the pilot, Jordan the gunner, and mechanics Koji and Stan. Don Wei is charged with finding the racer, the ships, and crew that will take place in the challenge set in another section of the Milky Way. Just as all of this happens the Avatar's ship appears, heralding Earth's time to enter the Oban race. Even so she pulls off some nice mechanical work and tells him that her name is Molly which nets her a job as part of the pit crew. Don doesn't recognize her and he's kind of a jerk. She makes her way to her father but the meeting doesn't go quite as she expected. Thanks to her plucky, determined personality Eva breaks rebuilds a rocket bike and breaks free of the school. She talks about her father, Don, being the great owner of a racing company but nobody believes her because he hasn't been in her life for ten years. In the present day of the series (2082) a young girl named Eva Wei with a grease monkey spirit bemoans her fate within the hallowed halls of a boarding school. They had time to prepare but nobody knew exactly how long that would be. A being known as the Avatar appeared before a council of officials dictating that peace would come until the Great Race of Oban were to begin. To the average person the end of the war was a symbol that we had one but the truth is very different. The show takes place in the future quite some time after humanity had colonized several planets and found themselves locked in war with a hostile race known as the Crog. Originally released in 2006 and consisting of 26 episodes Oban: Star Racers was created by Sav! The World Productions. ![]() Heck, the series is even being broadcast in Japan to further that tie to the anime world! This isn't your typical Saturday morning kid's show and I'm sure the fact that it comes from French and Japanese production teams would have something to do with that. There was a certain anime flavor to it and the story was actually handled well enough that it made an immediate impression. I have no bias towards shows from that background and I tend to just not have the time to spend watching everything and anything.Īfter watching a couple episodes of Oban I became very interested in its origin. Generally speaking I keep my gaze focused on the anime world and rarely take interest in other series that appear on the likes of Cartoon Network and Jetix/4Kids. ![]() I have to admit that prior to receiving Oban: Star Racers for review I had not even heard of the show, much less saw it. ![]() appgate-sdp-client, AppGate SDP Client for macOS, 5.0.3. ![]() HoudahSpot builds upon Spotlight, which comes pre-installed with macOS.

This layout makes it much easier to explore search results and progressively refine searches until results distill down to a manageable size. To the right, HoudahSpot even finds room to show file information or previews. Today, HoudahSpot presents search results next to search criteria. HoudahSpot today: Search Criteria, Results & Preview in the same window Once the search was started, search criteria had to be hidden to make room to display results. The HoudahSpot window had space only to show search criteria. HoudahSpot was developed on an iBook with a screen resolution of just 800×600 pixels. The first version of HoudahSpot had to be very economical with screen real estate. HoudahSpot, 15 years ago: Search criteria on the front side of the window, results on the flip side As technology advanced, HoudahSpot has always managed to keep frequently used files at users’ fingertips and hard-to-find files within easy reach. Over the years, HoudahSpot had to outdo itself over and again to keep ever-growing file collection in check.

As Macworld reviewer Rob Griffith put it in 2008: A simple search form allows for finding files by name, text content, dates, as well as many other file properties. With HoudahSpot, building precise searches is a matter of just a few clicks. ![]() HoudahSpot has proven an essential tool for those who work with or rely on a large number of files. This has earned it a spot in the hearts and the Dock of many Mac users. Over the years, HoudahSpot has grown to be ever more powerful and yet easier to use. The idea came to life on May 8th, 2006, with the release of HoudahSpot 1.0. HoudahSpot should combine the speed of the Spotlight index with the flexibility and precision of standard file search. Thus was born the idea for HoudahSpot: “unleash Spotlight”. It lacked the finesse needed to hone in on the files we were looking for. We soon realized that the Spotlight interface left much of that promise unfulfilled. It allowed for blindingly fast file searches by relying on an index. When Apple introduced Spotlight search with Mac OS 10.4 Tiger in 2005, we felt that the Spotlight technology held a lot of promise. Fifteen years ago, we released the first version of what came to be one of the most popular search tools on the Mac: HoudahSpot. ![]() ![]() It’s easy to add a sporty edge to your look when you wear casual pieces from this adidas collection.
