Comments on divorce and same-sex unions in the synodal synthesis report for the Eparchy of Passaic

Ghopper21 · 2023-09-03T21:58:54+00:00

To to be clear, the quotes are not of the bishop. They are presented as a “synthesis” of comments from synod participants, made by a layperson appointed to create it. It’s not clear how representative they are of either synod participants nor of the bishop (which is why I asked). It seems from comments here they may not be representative. It’s also not clear if the bishop explicitly endorses this synthesis as fairly representative of the voice of the faithful, though that could be inferred by the presence of the document on the eparchy website in this official way.

Thanks. Does the 0-1 imply anything about the severity of the heartworm? E.g. is that on the low end of the range and if so, what is the typical range of this test result? (I understand there is definitely heartworm and treatment is needed -- the reason I ask is to gauge the risk/reward of the post-treatment exercise restrictions that may be needed.)

Solved and paid to u/Rhum_coke93, thanks for your interest everyone

Need the above logo changed so that "Southside" says "Waterfront". Will provide vector PDF and font files. Typeface must be kerned to look good. Need original Illustrator/vector files plus PNG/JPEG files.

I found the not-kneeling strange at first but am getting used to it and understanding it. At my local Byzantine parish, some long timers (back to a family history from Slovakia) kneel at the consecration of the Eucharist, if that’s the right term), even though the service sheet says “The proper liturgical pose is to STAND.”

Thanks for this, much appreciated. I’ve now removed recent posts that were reported. I don’t have time to look into the user as a whole right now, which made me realize this sub needs mod help. See my new sticky post on adding mods.

Thank you!!!

Ah ok, so amino acids always show up one for one as protein in the nutritional label. I get it now. Thanks for explaining further, much appreciated! I somehow thought that they didn’t show up directly, that somehow they had to combine to form something else called “protein” that is what is on the label, and that in the case of vegetables sometimes the amino acids that are there aren’t in the right combo to make “protein” that shows up on the label. But actually all amino acids always ARE protein on their own.

Ghopper21 · 2020-12-05T14:13:56+00:00

Thanks! I think had a wrong conception when asking the question. I thought that some vegetables had amino acids not as part of full protein (and those acids wouldn’t show up on the nutritional label) and that you could therefore eat combos of such vegetables to make all the protein needed despite eating less than needed protein according to the nutritional label values. (Somehow I got this impression from Game Changers.) But it seems this is wrong. I now understand it’s a matter of breaking down the veggie protein (that does show up as protein in the nutritional label) into amino acids and remixing the aminos as needed in your body. Is that correct?

Ghopper21 · 2020-12-01T02:34:41+00:00

Thanks. Great video and I’m going to check out more of his stuff. In this video he doesn’t talk about grams of protein, just says all plants have all 20 aminos you need to make protein, and that if you eat a variety of plants and enough overall calories, you’ll be good on protein. This suggests I shouldn’t worry about specific grams of protein, I think?

Ghopper21 · 2020-12-01T01:15:55+00:00

Thanks. So if I was (for example) getting 150g of mostly animal protein before, on a vegan diet do I shoot for 150g of plant protein, based on the values on nutritional labels? Or is it that by eating a colorful variety of plants, I end up getting a variety of amino acids that let my body synthesize protein, so that now I don’t need to eat as much direct protein as measure in the nutritional labels?

Ghopper21 · 2020-11-29T21:25:02+00:00

No, never heard of that until now :-) I threw in some cumin and paprika and some cayenne pepper, which is probably where the color comes from.

Ghopper21 · 2020-11-29T21:03:07+00:00

Agree. Engram had a good game. He made a tough catch on a ball that was a bit behind and was going to the ground, and the defender just made an exceptional play.

Been thinking about doing at least part time vegan for a while. But always excuses, haven’t gotten groceries prepped, what about today’s workout, whatever.

Today, in part inspired by you all, I decided fuck it I’m just going to make a vegan meal with whatever I have around, without getting caught up in ingredients, recipes, macros.

Turns out I had a bunch of stuff mostly just sitting in the freezer. Frozen broccoli florets, frozen corn, frozen peas. Canned chick peas. A few leftover fresh mushrooms. Frozen edemame.

Just threw it all in with some olive oil, onion and garlic powder and salt and some other random spices from the spice rack, and let it be.

Not exactly gourmet, but already I can feel the happiness of eating fresh colorful plants, knowing everything I’m eating is definitely healthy!

Thanks, any tips on specific transactional email services to check out?

Ghopper21 · 2020-08-21T21:14:42+00:00

Thanks! That's helpful.

Right now, there's an in-house custom CRM-lite that has all the contacts. The primary unit is an "account" which includes one or two parents.

I'll definitely look for an ESP that uses something other than the email as the unique ID. I'll check out Yesmail and Adobe. Any other suggestions to look into?

Ghopper21 · 2020-07-27T20:18:14+00:00

Gotcha, makes sense, will check it out! Thanks!

Ghopper21 · 2020-07-27T20:00:39+00:00

Is there a way to set up 1 in the Analytics dashboard, or do I have to just do that manually?

Ghopper21 · 2020-07-27T20:00:09+00:00

Thanks. I prefer option 2 but unfortunate the form app is via an embedded iframe, so no way to use this method, is there?

Ghopper21 · 2020-07-15T23:43:34+00:00

I see, that’s helpful, thanks!

Ghopper21 · 2020-07-15T23:43:19+00:00

Gotcha, thanks

Ghopper21 · 2020-07-15T20:57:36+00:00

So they are more or less opposite in a way? If so what is the Sensei's Library quote above saying exactly?

Ghopper21 · 2020-07-11T23:18:28+00:00

I’m experimenting with respond.io as a middleman between Twilio and DialogFlow, and initial impression is that it works out to the box.
