First Transcontinental Railroad across America

 According to a wonderful historical calendar given to us by friends of DIT, today is a historical and momentous day.

What?  Why?

Well, it seems that on May 10, 1869, The Union Pacific and the Central Pacific railroads met at Promontory, Utah, thus linking the two into a giant cross country link.

A final last spike was driven and the two railroads were connected.

The Locomotive pictured here is the Gov. Stanford, typical of locomotives of that time.

Berry College eagle cam

Yes, yes, we know this has been posted before --

but time has passed

and the Eaglet eggs have long since hatched

and the baby eaglets have grown.

In fact they are about ready to take flight (if they  haven't already)

A couple of days ago they were still in the nest

but soon they will be gone.

So, if you haven't checked lately, this will likely be one of your last chances.

Today is Mother's Day

Yes, today is Mother's Day

Mother's Day officially began in the USA about 100 years ago.

A friend of DIT found an interesting and verrrrry brief article that provides information of how and why it was started.

The last paragraph is especially interesting.

And, we thought you would want to know --

so

Ants

Ants !!! Oh No, Ants !!

Yes, it is spring and it is time for ants to emerge.

Now, if they stay outside -- that is one thing.

But, alas, many feel the need to come into your house -- to check out the kitchen and other areas.

What to do??

There are many methods suggested to get rid of these critters.

One method uses a mixture of Borax and powdered sugar.

You can read about it in today's link.

The Hindenburg Disaster

Today, May 6, is the sad anniversary of the Hindenburg Disaster which occurred in 1937 in Lakehurst,  N.J.

Most readers of today's DIT were not alive at the time of the disaster but have surely heard about it.

The Hindenburg had made many uneventful crossings from Hamburg Germany to Lakehurst -- as well as to other places in the world.

But this trip resulted in tragedy and shocked the world.

No one really knows for sure why it happened though there are many theories and ideas -- most of which are included in the Wikipedia article to which we are linking.

In that article is a short Newsreel video titled "Zeppelin Explodes Scores Dead." You will find it on the right hand side of the page a short distance down from the top of the page.  It is definitely worth watching.

To read the detailed article in Wikipedia about the Hindenburg Disaster, HERE'S THE LINK

And, to view a different and longer, 5 minute video of the Hindenburg Disaster HERE'S THE LINK.

Emergency Phone Numbers

For those of you who don't know -- the picture today is of a phone.  Really. No Kidding.

Apparently a lot of young folks have no idea of the concept of a Rotary Telephone.  Sigh.

Anyway -- with that said

A friend found today's information and passed it on to his Sunday School class and to us.

We don't know who wrote it but apparently it is a public domain type of document which you can pass it on to others.

What is it??

Well, it is a list of 'phone numbers' (Scriptures) which will give help, assistance, advice, encouragement, instruction, comfort, etc. in various situations.

This list has 27 different situations with 'Emergency Phone Numbers' to help with the solution.

You will want to print this list out, put it in your Bible or in a notebook, and use them when the need arises.

So, with that by way of introduction

HERE'S THE LIST of 27 Emergency Phone Numbers

The Heroic Death of Eric Liddell

Who was Eric Liddell? you say.  That name rings a bell.

Well, indeed it should because the film, Chariots of Fire, tells the story of his early life with emphasis on his remarkable abilities to run really fast.

A friend of DIT found this link and sent it to us.

You will be amazed to read it.

Extraterrestrial Life

Pictured here is part of the Milky Way, a photo by NASA.

Movies, TV Programs, Talk Radio, Books, Comics, Magazines, etc etc etc keep telling us that there is 'life out there' -- and we just need to find it.

But is that true?

Is there life 'out there' ?

Bright Flash of Light

 "Bright Flash of Light" ---

That is the beginning of the title to an article about the beginning of life.

The entire title reads: Bright flash of light marks incredible moment life begins when sperm meets egg

Wow. 

Now this is a game changer.

You probably saw or heard about this article recently.  It was in the news on many web sites.

But, just in case you missed it,

Marsupials

Yesterday we read about Possums --

and did you notice that the Possum is a Marsupial animal?

Do you remember what is unusual about Marsupials?

Yes, when their young are born they crawl into a pouch on the mother's belly and live there for some time until they are large enough to emerge.

You are likely most familiar with Marsupials such as the Kangaroo and it was  probably 'new' to you to know that the Possum is also a Marsupial

as is the Wombat, Panda, and Koala.

Today's link takes us to a very short article with more details and some cute pictures of Marsupials.

HERE'S THE LINK to Marsupials


 

Possums

Recently we saw a Possum in the back yard.  It was getting a drink of water from the frog pond and then slowly walked back into a stand of trees.

Cute.

A friend said Possums are 'good' because, among other things, they eat TICKS.  Yay and hooray for that.  It was nick to know there was a tick eater in the area.

Mentioning this insight to some other folks did not bring such a positive response

 rather -- one related a story of a possum on their back deck. 

And instead of just watching it, the grandsons of this friend went inside, came out with a gun, and tried to get rid of it.

What they did instead was shoot many holes in the deck !!!!

Sigh.

Anyway, all that to say, the topic of Possums had come up -- so off to the internet to learn more.

Our DIT link today is loaded with interesting information about Possums -- and, among other things, they eat more than ticks. 

Bottom line, if you have a Possum in your neighborhood, leave it alone and be happy.

HERE'S THE LINK to interesting info about Possums

Today Is Morse Code Day

There are many 'normal' and well known Holidays

and then there are the more 'exotic'.

The one being celebrated today is likely in the latter category.

Who knew ??? that today is Morse Code day.

Forward ? or Backward ?

This has been the long standing question and debate for many folks.

Serious arguments have resulted from this verrrrrry important topic.

What debate? What Question? What topic?

Wellllllll …. we are referring to that controversial subject about which way to put the toilet paper roll on the roller.

At last it has been solved.

Solved?

What?  how?

Well, it seems that at the time the patent was taken out for toilet paper on rolls, a drawing was presented as part of the patent.

The drawing showed the direction that the roll should be put on the roller

And

Are you ready for this?  Yes?

Then HERE'S THE LINK to which way the toilet paper should go

Winged Wonders - Anhanguera

Is it a bird? is it a reptile? is it a plane?

Well, it is not a plane but

Fossils have been found of large flying creatures that look like reptiles but fly like birds.

In museums fossils of these flying monsters can be seen.

They are said to be primitive prehistoric beasts and are classified as the Anhanguera. 

But when you check them out, you will find that they are not primitive at all.

Rather they are huge sophisticated flying wonders.

A very informative article will explain.

Sunday Hymn: Dayenu - Passover Song

The Hymn today is not a Hymn in the usual sense of the word.

Rather it is a Jewish song which is sung at some Passover Seder Suppers.

The version we will hear today is sung by Jews who are observing the annual Feast of Passover with a traditional Song.

Friday, April 22 / 2016 Passover began.  It is a several day event -- which is why we have selected this song for our Hymn today.

Though they are singing of and picturing the various elements of the Passover, many are likely unaware of the significance of these elements --

The elements are types / pictures of Yeshua (Jesus- the Lamb of God) and what His sacrificial death provides for all who accept his substitute sacrifice for sin.

For example:  The Lamb that was slain -- is a picture of Jesus, the Lamb of God who was slain to let those who accept His substitute death escape the punishment for sins by His death paying the death price for us.

The blood on the doorposts of the house pictures the blood on the Cross on which Christ died.

Many more types / pictures could be listed here but that is a whole study in itself.

For a brief summary of some of the types /pictures of the Passover meal HERE'S A LINK

But back to today's topic -- the Sunday Hymn --

This was a new song to me -- and may also be new to you.

So with that by way of introduction HERE'S THE LINK to Dayenu - Passover Song

Today begins Passover

What exactly IS Passover ?

Well, you are likely aware that Passover celebrates the departure (exodus) of the Jewish Nation from Egypt after about 400 years of living in Egypt, most of that time in slavery.

If you are rusty on those events, check out the Biblical account in Exodus 12.  HERE'S THE LINK

The Holiday / Feast activities and celebrations observed today are not only reminders of that past event but

they are also types / prophetic pictures pointing to future events.

For example -- The Jewish Seder Supper is observed at Passover --

And there are many things eaten during this Seder, each with significant symbolism.

Two of these 'special things' are the Afikomen and the Zeroa.

What are they? And why are these important to both Jews and Christians?

HERE'S THE LINK that explains about the Afikomen and the Zeroa

No Evolution is Proof of Evolution?

While we are on the subject of evolution -- thinking of yesterday's DIT --

here is another interesting connundrum.

Recently, scientists found fossilized bacteria that are said to 1.8 billion years old.

Wow.

How can one find such tiny objects, and how do they know they are that old, and ...

Well, we could go on and on with the questions --

But read this very brief article and see what you think.

Did Humans evolve from Ape-like ancestors?

Recently I was chatting with a person who has a Masters Degree from a well known University and who, though now retired, taught Jr. High and High School Science courses for years and years.

This person stated, as we discussed the genealogy of our ancestors, that, as a young child, when she heard that we had descended from apes -- she looked at the pictures of her grandparents and noticed that they did indeed have ape like features (foreheads, etc).

Therefore, this individual believed that man descended from apes, taught this to her students, and still believes this to be true.

But Is that true? 

Did Humans really evolve from Ape-Like ancestors?

This brief article will provide interesting insights to ponder.

Loading your dishwasher

Wow. Dishwashers have come a long way in development.

The Dishwasher pictured here is a 1917 model that was advertised in Keith's Magazine.  It was hand powered.

Today we have much fancier machines powered by electricity

but

Hmmmm.

Seems there is a right way and a wrong way to load a dishwasher.

Who knew.

Is There a Purgatory?

Pictured here is a depiction of purgatory by Venezuelan painter Cristóbal Rojas (1890) representing the boundary between heaven (above) and hell (below)

The article to which we are linking today is a reply to a question asked of a writer for the Christian Index Newspaper.

Is there really a Purgatory such as the one pictured here?

It is a question about which many folks have wondered and worried.

As you read this brief article, pay particular attention to the next to last paragraph concerning Christ's comment on the cross to the thief.

Hmmmmm.

And with that by way of introduction,

The Greatest Show on Earth

The Circus is a show that everyone loves.

P.T Barnum along with Bailey began the "Greatest Show on Earth"

P.T Barnum died April 7, 1891 but the Circus lived on for many more years.

Likely you or someone you know actually attended a P.T. Barnum and Bailey "The Greatest Show on Earth".

But what is its origin and is there any associated interesting history?

Yes, indeed.

The article to which we are linking today has insights which are very interesting and profound.

The Titanic Sank on this date in 1912

Actually the date was april 14 and 15, 1912 as the Ship struck the iceberg at 11:40 pm on the night of April 14 and sank in the early morning hours of April 15.

You have probably seen the movie (which takes a lot of liberties with the story including many fictionalized events) or you may have just head about the disaster.

Recently a book, the one pictured here, was written detailing more information about what actually happened.

A friend of DIT wrote a short book review which he handed out to his Sunday School class this past Sunday.

We thought you would also want to read the brief book review as it is very interesting and informative.

HERE'S THE LINK to The Titanic's Last Hero

Also, as you no doubt know, as the ship was in in its final hours and minutes, the small orchestra played the Hymn Nearer My God to Thee.

As you read this book review, you might want to also listen to the movie version of the playing of the Hymn.

HERE'S THE LINK to the Hymn Nearer my God to Thee.

Alabama's Underwater Forest

An underwater forest has been found --  located off the coast of Alabama.

The Godly Truth about Bikini's -- Finally someone gets it!

It is getting warm outside so many folks are probably beginning to think about summer activities and vacations.

And this, of course, brings up the topic of swimming and sun bathing --

Which in turn brings up the topic of what to wear.

Many folks these days will soon, therefore, be purchasing (or resurrecting from a closet or drawer) swimwear.

This video, is something worth watching before you select your swimming attire.

Sunday Hymn: It is Well with my Soul

Yes, This is a very well known hymn and it is loved by all --

 but the story behind the ones who are performing it today is poignant.

Joey Feek, who is singing this hymn, is now in Heaven with her Lord.

She passed away on March 4, 2016 after a bout with cancer.

Her husband (playing the guitar and singing with her) is now caring for their 2 year old daughter on their farm near Nashville, TN.

So with that by way of background, worship with them as you listen.

The Hummingbird: God's Tiny Miracle

On Monday, March 14 we observed "Learn about Butterflies" Day.

And what an amazing creature the Butterfly is.

But, guess what?

Even though today is not "Learn about Hummingbirds" day, a friend of DIT found a wonderful article that tells about this most amazing bird.

Evolutionists believe and teach that the hummingbird, all birds, the butterfly, and, indeed, everything including you and me just 'happened'.

As you read this article, see what you think.

Was this an accident of nature -- a result of evolution?

John 3:16 in sign language

This is an interesting and short tutorial.

A person we know actually knows some sign language and uses it in his practice so this is likely not new to him --

And another person we knew years ago was the sign language person for all Church events and activities.

But for those of you who do not 'do' sign language (including me) and are interested in learning some, you will find this verrrrrry helpful.

Thoughtful and Interesting.

The Easy way to grow tomatoes

It is that time of the year.

What time?

Why the time when folks begin to think about starting their gardens.

Yes, it is spring, so that means it is time to get the little plants and 'put them out' to grow.

Several friends of DIT are really 'into' growing tomatoes and they usually get small starter plants and soon have oodles of tomatoes.

But did you know you don't really have to start with a starter plant?

You can actually start with just a tomato, a pot, and some soil.

No kidding.

Is There Geological evidence for a young earth?

As the brief article to which we are linking today points out,

the concept of a young earth is a real 'stumbling block' for folks today.

Why?

Because, with the seemingly endless statements, movies, books, articles, etc. stating repeatedly that the earth is old old old,

it is becoming a 'given' that the earth IS old.

But, is there Geological evidence for a young earth?

Indeed, there is.

In fact there is abundant evidence that the earth is not old but really is amazingly young.

This very brief article discusses a few of the many evidences which support a young earth instead of the proposition that it is millions or billions years old.

Self Cleaning Clothes

No kidding

This is a brief article that is out there on the internet.

Hmmmm

A friend of DIT recently got all excited about some kind of cooking device that seemed to take the work out of grilling in a 'set it and forget it' way

though her husband wondered if it was also self cleaning

and she said "there is an app for that"

Oh, well.  Maybe there is an app for that but probably not

And this unusual idea might not come to fruition either

But just in case it does

Texas Aggies Comeback

Unless you have been on Mars or living under a rock, you are aware that it is March Madness time --

And madness is the correct term.

Why do I say that?

Well, the amazing 12 point comeback of Texas A&M over Northern Iowa in Basketball was 'madness' at its most exciting.

Usually the last minute or two of a basketball game takes f o r e v e r because the losing team is fouling fouling fouling -- hoping to gain some final points to win the game.

But in this amazing comeback, that was not the case and it is the dream that every fan and team has when they are behind.

'Never Never, Never give up!!!' is the idea.


And in this instance -- it worked. It got them into overtime and they eventually won the game. WOW

Even if you have seen the final 44 seconds of this game, you will want to watch it again and again and ...

Today is Resurrection Day (Easter Sunday)

Charles H. Spurgeon said:

"The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is one of the best attested facts on record.

There were so many witnesses to behold it, that if we do in the least degree receive the credibility of men’s testimonies, we cannot and we dare not doubt that Jesus rose from the dead.

It is all very easy for infidels to say that these persons were deceived,

but it is equally foolish, for these persons could not every one of them have been so positively deceived as to say that they had seen this man, whom they knew to have been dead, afterwards alive;

they could not all, surely, have agreed together to help on this imposture:

if they did, it is the most marvellous thing we have on record, that not one of them ever broke faith with the others, but that the whole mass of them remained firm.

We believe it to be quite impossible that so many rogues should have agreed for ever.

They were men who had nothing to gain by it;

they subjected themselves to persecution by affirming the very fact; they were ready to die for it, and did die for it.

Five hundred or a thousand persons who had seen him at different times, declared that they did see him, and that he rose from the dead; the fact of his death having been attested beforehand.

How, then, dare any man say that the Christian religion is not true, when we know for a certainty that Christ died and rose again from the dead?

And knowing that, who shall deny the divinity of the Savior? Who shall say that he is not mighty to save?

Our faith hath a solid basis, for it hath all these witnesses on which to rest, and the more sure witness of the Holy Spirit witnessing in our hearts."

The above quote is from:
Charles H. Spurgeon, vol. 2, Spurgeon's Sermons: Volume 2, electronic ed., Logos Library System; Spurgeon's Sermons (Albany, OR: Ages Software, 1998)., No 66 (exposition)

Yes, Jesus really did die and really did rise again 3 days later.

Why did He do this and what does it mean for us?

On Palm Sunday Jesus began the last days of His earthly life.

A few days later He died, being crucified on the Cross.

Pet Owners, here's a heads' up about Flea Poison

It is that time of the year.

What time?  It is spring time

And this means that people and pets will be spending more time outside.

But, if you have a pet (or know of someone who does), you need to be aware of this problem.

What problem?

A recent warning by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says  “Small dogs (and cats) prove susceptible to Flea Poison”

Hmmmm. Now this could be scary.

It seems that there have been reports that some of the topical application products to kill flees are more dangerous than previously thought.

If you have a pet using these products or know of someone using them, you might want to read the article.
