Shouldn’t it have been turned around? Shouldn’t they have been washing the feet of their Lord and master? He whom the holy angels serve now serves sinful men. In the upper room at Jerusalem the night before his death, his hands picked up the basin of water and proceeded to wash his disciples’ feet. Jesus also used his hands to express love. What would I do if I couldn’t touch those nearest and dearest to me? With them I caress my spouse, hold close my children, comfort my loved ones in distress. “After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him” (John 13:5). “O all-atoning Sacrifice, You died to make me free.” How Jesus must love me! How strong must be the love that held him to that cross for me! One of his disciples, after standing beneath Jesus’ cross, wrote later, “This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us” (1 John 3:16). This Lenten season won’t be what it should until I also realize why Jesus let my sins nail him to the tree. So did I! This Lenten season is not going to be what it should until I change the “they” to “I” crucified him. Calloused soldiers, a spineless judge, a turncoat disciple, hateful countrymen, all took a swing at the nails with sin’s hammer. There’s no guessing, though, as to who pounded those nails through his hands and feet. I can only guess at what this involved for Jesus as he hung fastened by those nails to that cross. All of hell’s acid waves that were the wages for the world’s sins washed over God’s Son. Splintery wood and sharp nails, torn flesh and screaming nerve endings, constant pain and slow death, and more were involved in this form of execution. The gospels simply record, “They crucified him.” But there was nothing simple about it. He saw their imprint on his risen Savior’s limbs. Though the crucifixion accounts don’t mention nails by name, Thomas would tell us they were there. I cut with a knife, eat with a fork, and write with a pen. Risen Savior, remind me daily that you are the answer for all my tears. “He lives to silence all my fears he lives to wipe away my tears he lives to calm my troubled heart he lives all blessings to impart” ( Christian Worship: Hymnal 441:5). I need the assurance that his tomb is empty and he is gloriously alive. Like Mary, I need to hear the risen Savior’s question, “Why are you crying?” Sorrow over sin that makes my heart cry out looking for relief. Helpless sobs that the problems and pains of daily living wrench out of me. Tears shed in the hospitals and cemeteries of life. “Mary,” he said, but, oh, how how he said it! The love with which the risen Savior spoke her name brought an end to her tears and hope to her future. Behind her that first Easter stood the risen Savior. No wonder she was crying.īut Mary cries no longer. And now the final indignity-his body was missing or so it seemed, stolen by grave robbers or the unrelenting authorities. Then had come his hurried burial, leaving no time for friends like her to take care of his corpse properly. The One on whom she had pinned her hopes for salvation was a corpse-or so she thought. What a question to ask! Imagine how Mary must have felt when first the angels and now this stranger inquired about her tears. “She turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus.

If you are using the Wi-Fi Roku TV remote, then check that any nearby applicances that could cause RF interference are switched off. Locate your TV’s IR receiver and confirm that it isn’t blocked by ornaments on your TV shelf, and isn’t damaged.īecause the IR receiver on your TV is most likely to be at the bottom, it is very easy to accidentally cover it up when cleaning around your TV shelf. If some buttons on your remote are working, then try restarting using the button combination: Home – press 5 times Up Arrow – press once Rewind – press 2 times Fast Forward – press 2 times.Ĭheck for Any Obstructions or Conflicts from the Remote to the TVįor the IR Roku remotes, you should check that you have a clear line of site between your remote’s IR emitter and the IR receiver on your TV. Resetting your TV and remote can help resolve any issues, particularly if you are using the Roku Voice remote (over Wi-Fi). Note that TCL, Insignia, JVC, Haier, Hitachi, Philips, Magnavox, Westinghouse, Sanyo, Element, RCA, and ONN all use the same code-set for their Roku TV remotes, but Sharp and Hisense use a separate code-set, meaning that any Roku TV IR remote branded with anything other than Hisense will not work with a Hisense Roku TV. The IR remotes do not need to be directly paired as they operate on factory-set code that allows them to work with any Hisense Roku TV. If your Hisense Roku TV remote does not have a pairing button, then you can simply reset it by removing the batteries, waiting for approximately 30 seconds, then re-installing the batteries. Hisense Roku TV Remote Not Working: No Pairing Button Hold down your Hisense Roku TV remote Pairing Button located in the battery compartment for approximately 5 seconds until the remote’s lights start blinking.Re-connect your TV and switch it back on.Switch off and disconnect your TV / Roku box.If your remote has a pairing button, then you can use it to re-pair your remote with your TV, which will hopefully get it working again: To determine which type of Roku TV remote you have, remove the battery cover and check if your remote has a button hidden underneath. This enhanced Roku remote does not require a line of sight to your TV to work, but can be less reliable than a standard IR remote and can become unpaired from your TV. If you are using a newer Roku TV remote, like a “Voice Roku Remote”, then it probably does not use IR, but instead relies on your home Wi-Fi network to connect to your Roku TV. If you don’t see an IR signal and you have confirmed that your camera doesn’t filter IR by testing it with a known working remote, and you have tried replacing the batteries, then you will need a replacement remote as it is unlikely that you can fix this issue at home. If you have to use an iPhone, then first check that you can see infrared by using a remote that you know is working. Note that not all models of iPhone will be able to see the infrared beam, as they filter out IR signals.

Writing your LinkedIn Profile summary isn’t at the top of your to-do list. Once you make it to about the middle of the Gardens area, the achievement will unlock. When you hit the updraft, you'll get a tiny little boost up that will prevent you from hitting the bridge in the middle. From here, I took a running start and jumped and started gliding diagonally across the buildings, over the gap. In the video below (you won't see the achievement unlock due to the Xbox recording), you'll see I waited until I grabbed a Moon Ball and then I head over to the Bandstand. They can be one type the whole match or you can get it when all balls are in play. In the Party Team KO mode, all of the balls are special balls. I did this solo in the Party Team KO game mode, but in can be done in the normal Team KO mode as well, as long as you get the Moon Ball on this map. You don't have to stand on the stage at all which means another person or the Moon Ball is not needed. Note 3: According to REV X SHADOWS in the comments, this achievement will actually unlock by using the pad next to the stage and flying across. If this game type happens to disappear, you'll have to wait for the map to come around normally with the Moon Ball to get this. The 1v1 Faceoff mode that was here at launch has been removed. Note 2: This game type can definitely disappear and be replaced with a different game type at any point. I had to do this for several achievements to unlock. If it doesn't unlock for you when doing this, you'll have to reboot your game and try again. Note: This game is known to be glitchy with its achievements. 77).ĦDoes not include captive European Wild Hog or free-living wild pigs or swine. 8B).ĥDomestic ferrets must be surgically neutered or spayed and rendered incapable of breeding ( M.G.L.

Recommending Gang Beasts to you is easy because even though it has a few misses here and there in the end it's fun, full of humor, and another title at an reasonable price to add to your Xbox library. Despite the little issues you will return back to this game over and over because it offers you a variety of environments and they all provide action. There isn’t a huge amount of content and the controls being fun can frustrate you a little if played for too long. Catlateral Damage Available on: PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S. Physical copies can be purchased from local and online. I will say that the game is best played in short bursts because it does still get repetitive somewhat quickly.

For many, the PS4 and Xbox One controllers are most comfortable, but playing with mouse and keyboard is plenty comfortable and even offers some benefits over using a controller. Everything from movement to the great combat elements is kinda silly and when you combine that with the presentation of the game you end up with the almost perfect party game. We’re going to separate these by control method (PS4 controller, Xbox One controller, keyboard + mouse). Thankfully Gang Beasts finally arrived on the Xbox One and while it's not perfect, we can all enjoy a laugh and fun in the gameplay. I enjoyed the combat because not only is the movement fun but taking out your friends is always rewarding so you can trash talk during the process.

Here are some of the cleverest signs from the WGA picket lines. One expert predicted $3 billion or more in losses. The writers’ strike, if it stretches on, could deliver a massive blow to the economy in Southern California. economy could surpass 2007 stoppage, experts say. As productions shut down due to the writers’ strike, local prop houses, florists and caterers worry about their future and loss of work, as their business costs continue to rise. As a Hollywood writers’ strike hobbles production, L.A. Here are six issues where talks fell apart. Hollywood’s writers went on strike, but what were the issues that led to the fallout with the studios and streamers. Why Hollywood writers’ strike won’t end soon. Some Hollywood writers are calling it ‘the Netflix strike.’ Here’s why. They’ve learned from past negotiations that they have to think far into the future if they want to keep up with where the industry is headed. Technological shifts happen quickly and the writers are on a three-year contract cycle. Any chatbot entering a battle of wits with Parker or Fey is going to find itself humbly slinking back to a career of writing grocery lists.īut no one really knows how this is going to go. Still, nothing I’ve seen so far gives me any confidence that they’ll be able to go beyond the blandest dialogue and story outlines anytime soon. The recent examples of AI-generated chat-based text are impressive, no doubt. The issue is whether the descendants of ChatGPT will become tools to enhance writers’ contributions or replace them. Creative industries have typically been less vulnerable to technological advances than other sectors (personal computers certainly didn’t put screenwriters out of work). The recent strides in generative artificial intelligence technology have made writers understandably worried that the studios will try to use automation to displace jobs of humans. Not to be left unmentioned is the AI question, about which I hope to write more thoughtfully in the coming weeks. But there are signs that the different guilds, facing similar issues, are more united this time around. The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which represents the studios in labor dealings, is surely hoping a deal with the DGA will give it leverage against the typically more militant writers, in a repeat of what happened during the 2007-08 strike. Negotiations begin Wednesday between the studios and another crucial union, the Directors Guild of America. Martin said the writers room for HBO’s upcoming “Game of Thrones” prequel had paused work, with the author going on the record with his “full and complete and unequivocal support” of the guild. The Duffer brothers announced the delay of production on Netflix’s “ Stranger Things,” saying, “Writing does not stop when filming begins.” George R.R. The MTV Movie & TV Awards essentially went into clip-show mode, reminiscent of live programs during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Behind the scenes, the companies are trying to keep the pipeline open by demanding that producers with dual roles (writer-showrunners) continue to perform their managerial duties during the strike. Netflix, where much of the WGA ire is focused, has a particularly well stocked cupboard of programming and a diverse slate of international productions. Studio chiefs are openly saying they think they have enough finished material to make it so that viewers won’t notice the strike for awhile. And if the first week of the ongoing writers’ strike is any indication, neither side is going to crack soon and the dispute will get uglier as it progresses beyond the early burst of enthusiasm from the picket lines. So it’s no surprise that members of a long-dismissed profession have been girding for battle with their employers and are ready to dig in to get a better deal. Almost stings worse than Tina Fey’s immortal writers’ room burn as “30 Rock’s” Liz Lemon (“Boy, we, as a group, might not smell great”). “You don’t need any talent - the last thing you want is talent,” Parker, who helped write 1937’s “A Star is Born” and penned numerous forgettable films, once said of the art of the screenplay. And no one could be more scathing in their scorn of screenwriting and its practitioners than the great authors themselves.

A Quick Comparison Between ARCHICAD and AutoCAD Architecture Magazines are spring-loaded bullet canisters used to load a variety of gun types. This is the type of weapon that was used in the recent hospital shooting in Tulsa. Assault weapons have “very large bullets that do a lot of damage,” and can be semi-automatic (like an AR-15) or automatic (like an AK-47). “An assault weapon is generally defined as something that was originally used in the military,” McDevitt says. Illustration by Hannah Moore/Northeastern University Bump stocks are illegal in most states, McDevitt says.ĪR-15 rifle with bump stock. The term made it to the mainstream media after the Las Vegas shooter used a gun with a bump stock to kill 58 people at a festival. Automatic weapons are illegal in most states, he says.īump stocks make a semi-automatic weapon mimic an automatic, making them a loophole in many states’ automatic weapon ban. “Once you pull the trigger, it will keep firing as long as the trigger is pulled down, until there are no more bullets,” McDevitt says. Unlike a semi-automatic weapon, an automatic weapon-an example would be a machine gun-continues firing without the shooter having to pull the trigger again. While we may associate the term “semi-automatic” with rifles, which are long guns with grooves in the barrel that help improve accuracy, it can apply to any type of weapon, including handguns. Illustration by Hannah Moore/Northeastern UniversityĪ semi-automatic weapon is any weapon where the shooter pulls the trigger, one bullet is fired and a new bullet is automatically loaded. What are the terms used in the bill to describe firearms? Automatic rifle vs. What do these restrictions mean, and how effective would they be if passed? Here’s a primer on key gun terms, from Jack McDevitt, professor of the practice in criminology and criminal justice at Northeastern. Phil Murphy called for laws that make gun manufacturers vulnerable to civil lawsuits, and California lawmakers pushed for stricter gun control. Last week, New York passed a bill raising the age to buy a semi-automatic rifle to 21 and expanding red flag laws, CNN also reports. The federal legislation follows a push for gun control at the state level. The changes are unlikely to make it past a Senate vote. The House bill is wide reaching: It would raise the minimum age to buy some semi-automatic weapons to 21, strengthen bump stock and “ghost gun” regulations, ban high-capacity magazines, and give local governments power to start high-capacity magazine buyback programs, CNN reports. This pistol was donated to the museum by long-time supporter, Richard Keogh, whose father’s British Army uniform is on exhibit in the main museum exhibition space.The House passed the Protecting Our Kids Act on Wednesday, hours after hearing harrowing testimony from gun violence survivors and their families, and two weeks after a shooter killed 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas.
