hella is from Oakland, Kamala town…..(I know as I am a 70's Hayward runaway ran hella far from that shit /born Oakland)

 

It's fitting that we start this off with the ultimate Bay Area slang word, hella,

Trump rally in Butler today, the bullet proof glass around him? Did the pre-event people not know what windex is? Sheesh, look at all the drippy, stains all over that thing.

Watching re-run on Fox right now.

Cannot believe they didn't wash that thing spotless.

Was it intentional so we are certain he has bullet proof glass in front of him on camera?

Was it that dirty on live airing or just this Fox re-run on right now?

the actual saying is:

 

It's Tight, But It's Right

 

Ai and the internet 2024 gets it wrong.

 

It is about following what is RIGHT.

Tight, but Right. as in hard, but the right way.

"It's Tight, But It's Right"

Summary: This text reminds us that God sets the terms and conditions for a life with Him through Jesus Christ.

“Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road is easy that leads to destruction, and there are many who take it. 14For the gate is narrow and the road is hard that leads to life, and there are few who find it. (Matthew 7:13-14)

 

This text is part of a discourse by Jesus to His followers. From chapters 5 through 7 of Matthew’s gospel, Jesus addresses several topics and shares many aphorisms. In verses 13 and 14, He uses the metaphors of gates and roads to describe options for living. Jesus advocates and affirms using the narrow gate vis-à-vis the wide gate. The road associated with the narrow gate is described as being difficult to travel but that it leads to life as envisioned by God. The road associated with the wide gate is described as being easy to travel but that it leads to destruction. Interestingly, Jesus says that more people are likely to take the wide gate that leads to destruction than the narrow gate that leads to life. The framing of these options made it very clear to anyone with a modicum of common sense which gate led to the best outcomes – the narrow gate. In that light, I wish to elaborate on this text using the thought “It’s tight, but it’s right”.

 

Let’s reflect on the words of Christ. There are four points of contrast: (1) the width of the gate, (2) the condition of the road, (3) the destination and (4) the volume of travelers. Think of these contrasts from the perspective of high speed telecommunication and data communication services. You have a choice between Plan A and Plan B. Plan A offers broadband services, it accommodates many users, very simple to set up and configure, but your phone, cable and internet services will crash often and for extended periods of time. Plan B offers a smaller throughput, accommodates few users, labor intensive and time consumptive to set up and configure, but your phone, cable and internet services will seldom fail if ever. Which plan offers the best outcomes? Plan B of course. Plan B is tight, but it’s right. Let’s reflect on the intent of Christ. In this statement, He is managing the expectations of the listening and reading audiences. Christ is letting them and us know that: (1) receiving life from God, (2) sharing a life with God, and (3) living a life for God requires some effort on our part. It means meeting God on God’s terms. It means the terms and conditions of a wholesome relationship with God are dictated by God. There is no room for negotiations. It’s tight, but it’s right.

 

Let’s reflect on truths of Christ. Yes John 3:16 and 17 say that God loved the world that He sent Christ to be our savior. But unfortunately, most people across time will choose a path that does not enable them to have the life that love has provided. The idea that God loves everyone but sets conditions on everyone receiving the benefits of that love seems contradictory. The idea that those persons whom we deem as unlovable could find eternal life through God’s love seems unfair. The idea that we are invited into a relationship with God through faith in Christ but not have a voice or a vote on our rights seems unreasonable. It’s tight, but it’s right.

 

Let’s consider the expectations of Christ. He expects us to suffer for what is good; isn’t that His job? Isn’t He the lamb slain before the foundation of the world? Why should we have to take a hard road to achieve a good outcome? We did not ask to be born, so why require hardship for a reward? Why punish us if we do not meet the expectations for a life for which we did not request? This hardly seems fair! It’s tight, but it’s right.

 

These two verses are extremely efficient; they say so much using so few words. These two verses serve as a warning and as a comfort. Those who are headed for destruction are alerted that they need to make a U-turn and use the narrow gate. Those who are on the path to life are encouraged to stay the course, in spite of the difficulties and challenges, and in spite of seeing the easy journey of those who used a wider gate. The scope (of the words, intentions, truths and expectations of Christ) may be tight, but it’s right.

 

It’s tight, but it’s right. Amen.

Scientists think they can control weather with lasers

April 21, 2014 / 4:40 PM EDT / CBS News

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/inducing-rain-lightning-weather-lasers/

For many Americans who wished they could change the weather whether it be in the Northeast during this past winter or in drought-stricken California researchers may have found a way to aim a high-energy laser beam into clouds to make it rain or trigger lightning. The existence of condensation, storms and lightning are all due to the presence of large amounts of static electricity in the clouds. Researchers from the University of Central Florida and the University of Arizona say that a laser beam could activate those large amounts of static electricity and create storms on demand. By surrounding a beam with another beam that will act as an energy reservoir, the central beam will be sustained for greater distances than previously possible. The secondary beam will refuel and help to prevent the dissipation of the primary beam, which would break down quickly on its own. Although lasers can already travel great distances, it behaves differently than usual, collapsing inward on itself when a laser beam becomes intense enough, according to Matthew Mills, a graduate student at the UFC Center for Research and Education in Optics and Lasers. "The collapse becomes so intense that electrons in the air's oxygen and nitrogen are ripped off creating plasma basically a soup of electrons," Mills explained in a statement. Afterwards, the plasma tries to spread the beam back out causing an internal struggle between collapsing and spreading what's known as "filamentation." This process in turn creates a light string that lasts only until the beam disperses. "Because a filament creates excited electrons in its wake as it moves, it artificially seeds the conditions necessary for rain and lightning to occur," Mills explained. Previous work done by other researchers have led to some type of "electrical event" in clouds raising an added risk of a lightning strike when seeding clouds with lasers, according to the researchers.

"What would be nice is to have a sneaky way

which allows us to produce an arbitrary long 'filament extension cable.' It turns out that if you wrap a large, low intensity, doughnut-like 'dress' beam around the filament and slowly move it inward, you can provide this arbitrary extension," Mills said in a statement. "Since we have control over the length of a filament with our method, one could seed the conditions needed for a rainstorm from afar.

Ultimately, you could artificially control the rain and lightning over a large expanse with such ideas."

Future applications of this method could be used in long distance sensors or in spectrometers for chemical makeups.

"This work could ultimately lead to ultra-long optically induced filaments or plasma channels that are otherwise impossible to establish under normal conditions," Demetrios Christodoulides, a professor that is working with the graduate students on the project, said in a statement. Using this method, Mills, along with fellow graduate researcher Ali Miri, have extended the pulse seven-fold – from just under a foot to around seven feet. Still, they're not done yet, with hopes to extend the filament even further.

 

Development of the technology was funded by the Department of Defense and the researchers' findings were published in the journal Nature Photonics.
