I play 8 different roles in the play. Each character needs their own voice so I try to nail down each accent and how young/old the voice is etc then working with the director I find the right physicality for the character and just let them evolve in rehearsals. It’s good fun and something I have done a few times now in various different plays. It’s a good challenge but very rewarding if you can make the characters very clear and distinctive. The week after Passover is also called the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The people were required to remove all leaven from their houses for a full seven days. Leaven is symbolic of sin; thus, removing the leavened bread depicts the removal of all sin from one’s house (body). This is the same symbolism as we find in flax, for to be clothed in flax (linen) is to depict putting on the righteousness of Christ. So all of these things work together, woven into a complete picture of the plan of God for Christ and the overcoming body. The body of Christ (the overcomers) who are identified with their Head will soon follow Him in the first resurrection.

At the end she’s hitting him in the chest with the sides of her fists, real hits that really hurt. Lewis pulls her to him and she’s crying now, her heart beating hard enough for her and Lewis both.For if the first fruit be holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root be holy, so are the branches. But competition has got to bring with it a minimum level of standards and stability in the system and that's exactly what the inquiry that Michelle has launched yesterday, or announced today, is going to look to, so that if a failure in one company has learning for it then we spread those learnings to everywhere else across the system.

The White People: Arthur Machen. 4 stars. Not a bad place to begin! Machen's story is a classic of weird fiction.I’m getting the new high score,” I said, and shouldered past, leading Marten by the leash he was still holding.

What is left? To parse both the available documents and materials, but also one’s bias, one’s agenda. People rarely accomplish the latter, even when they give lip service to their racial blind spots, as in the case of a true-crime podcaster offering a disclaimer about her own whiteness while reporting on a story involving people of color. As I went about my research for this piece, I repeatedly experienced the stymying sense that I was just one person in a long line of do-gooders trying to shed light on the “truth” of Jonestown. The truth of this pursuit can only yield revelations of process and thought on the part of the writer. The truth of the event? Beyond some broad lessons about corruption and manipulation, what I kept returning to was the enormity of any one life, to say nothing of nine hundred lives.Raining down over the two of them now—Lewis almost smiles, seeing it—is the finest washed-out brown-grey dust from the fan, which Lewis must have hit with his hand on the way down. The dust is like ash, is like confectioner’s sugar if confectioner’s sugar were made from rubbed-off human skin. It dissolves against Lewis’s lips, disappears against the wet of his open eyes. Still, Defender being what it was, I finally had to scream and panic, slap the hyperspace button, because any point in space was better than where I was now. The stars blurred, my fingertip on that hyperspace button was both numb and more alive than it had ever been, and I fired, and I fired, and I fired deeper into the heart of whatever this was, clearing a path for him, one farther than our dad could ever reach, one that would get him away and safe and let him live the life he should have, that he deserved. Jim Jones moved to Guyana in 1977, just as New West magazine was preparing to publish a lengthy account of defectors' allegations about Peoples Temple. By the fall of that year, almost 1,000 Temple members emigrated to Jonestown, but for Stephan Jones, the pleasure crumbled when his father arrived. Suddenly there was no money to buy lumber or supplies--"he was such a tightwad," Stephan Jones says--and the homesteading fervor gave way to the minister's incessant meetings and group lectures and warnings about "enemies."
