I updated the Bible Lookup with Strongs. The Hebrew dictionary is now online, and the reference parsing is less brittle, but not a whole lot less brittle. Hey, anyone interested in codeing a Javascript 1.5 Bible Reference Parsing library?If so, here is what it should do. It should take a string as an input, and return an object with four properties, Book, Chapter, Start Verse, End Verse.Things to consider:What to do when they don’t enter a chapter, or don’t enter a verse, or don’t enter a verse range. In each case, the object should figure out the verse range and…

Its not near completed. Read the Caveat’s on the page. The url is www.walljm.com/bible/. Tell me what you think, offer suggestions for improvement. All will be listened too, perhaps not all heeded, but at least listened too.Ok, its late. I hope I don’t miss the last train, otherwise its going to be a long walk home. :)
How many times have you needed to throw something like, "Thou clouted dismal-dreaming mammet!" into the face of an enemy? Just to watch his expression, and the cloudy look of miscomprehension in his eyes when you say, "You are as rheumatic as two dry toasts.", but can’t find the right words, words like, "Sense sure you have, else could you not have motion; but sure that sense is apoplex’d." and "You are a shallow cowardly hind, and you lie.". Then wait no more, go to the Shakesperean Insulter and be blessed with a wealth of vitriol in the best English…
Isn’t it about time some smart photoshop/programmer/photoblogger used the Photoshop SDK to build a Blog This! plugin that used the Atom API (or any number of the other blogging APIs). That way I could post photos straight from photoshop. And if the plugin would let you opt to have the Title, Description and other stuff pulled straight from the EXIF metadata, all the better. Heck, I would pay for something like that. Oh, and one more thing, if the plugin would also, when it grabbed stuff from metadata, allow me to specify a post date, that would be like icing…
3am from Kyoto has got to be the best photoblog I’ve run across in years. He has a fresh style, a rich and saturated point of view. He shoots a lot of landscape, some macro, portraiture and other stuff as well. Check him out!

I hate being pulled in several different directions. hate. it. I hate not being able to take advantage of emotional energy to solve problems and overcome challenges and accomplish tasks because I don’t know which challenges, which problems and which tasks to do first. I hate the fact that I usually do know which ones to do first, but don’t want to do them because, though they have highest priority, they do not hold the most value to me. I can’t move, can’t accomplish, can’t resolve this problem.
I forgot all about it, but yesterday was my 21st spiritual birthday, and incidently, my older brothers as well. I was 6.5 years old when I found salvation. I would write more, but this would go on for pages. :)
I’m not very good at introductions. I beg of you to bear with me and read on long enough to catch my meaning. What I’m writing here is important to me, because it reflects an internal struggle I face. I hate laziness (though not enough apparently to slap him in the face).Laziness, by virtue of the fact that it hinders your ability to accomplish anything of value, creates a problem that encourages you to continue to be lazy. Laziness is self perpetuating and feeds on you much like an addiction. Laziness robs you of the joy and satisfaction you normally…
Farther Steps talks about Profaning Mammon. Taken from a quote by R. Kent Hughes in Set Apart, 33, he notes that to profane mammon is to give it away, and that giving it away to God is the ultimate way to profane mammon. Exquisite.Astounding. We follow the footsteps of Rome, right down to the depths of its own destruction.
The Internet Monk writes an article about being tired of the weirdness in Christians. Its worth reading.
He’s indolent, lazy, and loves to introduce people to his big sister. He comes off looking harmless, mild, but he’s evil. His name is Boredom, and he is the gateway emotion to a much larger world of bad attitudes and feelings.
JSON is a lightweight data-interchange format. Apparently its a language independant way of notating objects using C like syntax. Interesting…
Moment of disaster are telling experiences. While watching the news unfold over the disaster of Hurricane Katrina, I was proud to hear the Southern Baptist Convention mentioned by name on the news. Thousands of Southern Baptist volunteers were some of the first people to respond to the disaster. Since 1967, the SBC has provided organization for disaster relief through the North American Mission Board and the Red Cross.
IreneQ points out a need. And I thought, why not?
how much time I waste convincing myself to get started on a task I don’t like.
Have you ever been in love? You know the feeling, the one that grows richer the longer you know the person. How many of you have someone you love very much? Have you ever loved someone that the impact of them on your life was so visibly evident that people noticed? I think that what Paul was talking about when he said to be “filled with the Spirit” was a lot like being in love, truly being in love with Christ. When you love someone deeply and personally in the sense that you might love your wife or husband, or…
"To recapitulate, then:-I would define, in brief, the Poetry of words as The Rhythmical Creation of Beauty. Its sole arbiter is Taste. With the Intellect or with the Conscience, it has only collateral relations. Unless incidentally, it has no concern whatever either with Duty or with Truth." by Edgar Allen Poe (17)
A pattern commonly found among people who enter a new pursuit is, upon first introduction, to like everything without regard. Later, after having learned more, they tend to take on a sort of proud pugishness about their "understanding" of a form, disliking people who break the rules, and often writing volumnes to prove it… Eventually, they grow up a little and rise above this; usually this is because they begin to understood the principles behind the rules. Knowing principles allows them to better understand when a rule doesn’t really apply, and they will begin cautiously breaking rules when it suits…
