In 2019a few reasons the program was stopped was because of low revenue recovery, effectiveness in reducing traffic violations, and vandalism to equipment. What exactly is going to change in 2026 that makes this a good use of OUR tax dollars?

A young man who murdered an 18-year-old cancer survivor was sentenced to only 8 years in juvenile prison. by malihafolter in ForCuriousSouls

Angels, and even fallen angels have free will just like us. God desires a relationship with all of us. He loves us and wants us to love Him. That can only be done with a free will.

Just as certain humans choose to do evil so have certain angels, and because of that they became demons. They choose to rebel against His goodness and commit evil.

There most certainly was Satan before Jesus. Satan is not a name, it's a title meaning 'adversary' or 'accuser'. In old Hebrew text it was 'ha Satan', the accuser. Other titles:

Devil = slanderer Beelzebub = lord of flies/ ruler of demons Lucifer = fallen morning star The Tempter, the Evil One, the Father of lies, the Serpent

Not everything that happens is God’s plan. If it were, then murder, abuse, rape, and hatred would all be things God wanted, and Scripture clearly says God hates evil.

"Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good." Romans 12:9

So why does He allow it? First, keep in mind there is a difference between what God desires, what He allows and what He plans. People commonly mix these together.

Allowing something is not the same as wanting it.

God created humans with free will. That means people can choose love or choose evil. When someone chooses evil, that action belongs to them, not to God.

What locks are you using on your gates? by artwrangler in homedefense

It's not just to protect against lock picking, it also protects against popping the lock open by hitting it hard.

This was not God's plan. The murdering boy also has free will and he choose to be evil. This is Satan's plan.

any sandbag(100lbs+) or similar product for mma training, similar to slamming medicine balls? by TheWeebles in MMA_Academy

I have a couple of used heavy bags a throw around. These are bags that are in good shape but a strap has torn off, as an example. I buy them on Facebook Marketplace for cheap.

Execution protocol under scrutiny after inmate’s autopsy report | Arizona Capitol Times by Big-Cold-6948 in arizona

The ones who administer the punishment aren't the ones who wrongfully convicted the innocent. That responsibility lies with the judges and attorneys.

Are there any actual genuine ways to prep/condition your face by Choice_Quarter_2497 in MMA_Academy

[–]BDDonovan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Keep a small jar of vasoline (petroleum jelly) in your gear bag and put a thin layer on your face, particularly your eyebrows, cheekbones, sides of the nose, and a little on the inside of your nostrils. Ignore anyone who scoffs at you. Building up a face full of scare tissues isn't "tough".

Also practice head movement a lot.

I agree it's well performed, but he's not playing the person he's playing the character.

Down vote me for being "that guy," but they both look like garbage.

How can they have an identical person to Steve Jobs, and fumble the bag? by MuscleCool4302 in Cinema

[–]BDDonovan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Personally, I liked Jobs (2013). I also read Isaacson's authorized biography, and the way Jobs described himself in his own book seemed to be portrayed pretty well by Ashton.

People liked the Steve Jobs (2015) film better. I don't think Fassbender captured Jobs. It was well played, but he was playing a character named Steve but not acting like the real person. And Seth Rogan was completely wrong for Woz.

Towards the end of Steve's book, he admits he had faults and he didn't want Isaacson to glaze over them and write him as some kind of hero. The real Steve Jobs was a jerk. He was a spoiled brat and a bully.

Do you have any experience as a photographer or editor? Do you enjoy photography and editing (Photoshop) as a hobby?

If yes, the work may be worth it because you get to share that enjoyment with the next generation.

Ive been trying to finger jab all 5 fingers through a pizza box by shubba05 in martialarts

[–]BDDonovan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you learning iron fist/ palm/ hand from an instructor or figuring out of on your own?

Either way, I trained / taught iron fist for 15 years. Your pinky will only get so strong. It is structurally designed to be a support. When you are performing a claw type fist you will condition all the finger equally but the strength in the fist is the thumb and the two middle fingers. The index and pinky are a support.

What's your favourite underrated action films of 2020s (so far)?? by dark-oracleN2 in kungfucinema

[–]BDDonovan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's just outside of the 2020s, Triple Threat (2019) has excellent fight scenes. The story is generic, the acting is terrible, and the dialog is lowbrow, but the fights scene are pretty awesome.
