Ellipsis Mining exploration manager Baker Khudeira speaks with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's projects and ambitions in Africa. Khudeira outlined how Ellipsis Mining, an Australian-registered private company, is focusing on significant gold and iron ore exploration in southern Morocco and northern Mauritania. He shared that the company has identified 21 gold targets in Mauritania and is actively drilling for gold in the region. In Morocco, Ellipsis Mining has uncovered promising deposits, including one for gold and another for iron ore. According to Khudeira, gold samples from Mauritania have shown high surface results of 6 to 8 grams per ton, with estimates indicating a potential 20 to 25 million ounces of gold. He also discussed plans for an initial public offering (IPO) on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) following the completion of drilling programs within the next six months. Khudeira highlighted the strong interest the company has received at the Resourcing Tomorrow conference, with their CEO presenting the company's vision to a broad audience of investors and industry stakeholders.

In this week's study, I continue in Chapter 20; however I continue to discuss the First Resurrection. Before I get into the study, I talk about Rabbi Levi Slonim who gave an opening prayer at the White House Congress. I talk about his mentor Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, who in 1990 ask Benjamin Netanyahu, “to hurry up and bring in the Messiah”. This Rabbi is also a follower of the Kabbalah, which is a type of Jewish Mysticism. I then compare the writings of Freemasonry to Kabbalah. In our last study as we continue in Chapter 20 with verses 14 thru 6, we read about the First Resurrection. In this study, I would like to go into the First Resurrection some more.6   a thousand years. = "This is the first resurrection"; or, this completes the first resurrection. There is an Ellipsis of the verb in this sentence; and we may supply completes, having in mind the several resurrections which shall before then have taken place. Before I go any further allow me to explain what an ‘Ellipsis' is. El-lip´-sis. This is the Greek word ἔλλειψις, a leaving in, from ἐν (en) in, and λείπειν (leipein) to leave. 'The figure of speech is called, because some gap is left in the sentence, which means that a word or words are left out or omitted. The figure is a peculiar form given to a passage when a word or words are omitted; words which are necessary for the grammar but are not necessary for the sense.  The laws of geometry declare that there must be at least three straight lines to enclose a space. So the laws of syntax declare that there must be at least three words to make complete sense, or the simplest complete sentence. These three words are variously named by grammarians. In the sentence “Thy word is truth,” “Thy word” is the subject spoken of, “truth” is what is said of it (the predicate), and the verb “is” (the copula) connects it.But any of these three may be dispensed with; and this law of syntax may be rightfully broken by Ellipsis. Here, again, we have two things standing in related contrast, the "first" and the "new": i.e., the new, and the one that immediately precedes it; the former, and not the "first." For, the present "heavens and the earth which are now" (2 Pet 3:7) are not the first. For Scripture tells us of three, of which the present is the second. In 2 Pet 3:6-7, 13, we read of the first — the world that "then was" (Gen 1:1); of the second — "the heavens and the earth which are now"; and of the third — "a new heavens and a new earth," for which we now look. This (second of three) is what is called in Rev 21:1 the "first" of the latter two.Therefore this "first resurrection" is the former of the two mentioned in this verse: and not the calling on high of Phil 3:14, or the resurrection of 1 Thess 4:16-17. This special resurrection (1 Thess 4:16) must be carefully distinguished from that which is called the "first resurrection" in Rev 20:6. The word "first" in 1 Thess 4:16 does not refer to "the first resurrection" so called in Rev 20:6, but merely records the order of events, and simply states that "the dead in the Messiah" will "rise first"; i.e., before the taking up of either them or the living saints.The resurrection of 1 Thess 4:16 is not the resurrection of Rev 20:6. It was never revealed in the Old Testament; but was a special revelation made "by the word of the Lord" to Paul; and by Paul to the Thessalonian saints and to the Church of Yahweh.Have any questions?

About The Monosexual The Monosexual tells the story of Vincent Cappellini, an obsessed ultra-monogamist who struggles when his relationship with the love of his life abruptly ends. Twice-burned-once in love and once by the sun-he faces a host of challenges to his self-appointed sense of identity. Sunburn, bad sushi, a Sinatra karaoke contest, and the road rage fury of a woman scorned are but a few of the trials Vincent will endure while facing the ultimate test to his monosexuality-a new woman in his life.   About Dean Monti Dean Monti started writing at age two, but nothing really legible until age five. Since then his work has appeared in several literary journals including Prairie Light Review, ELF: The Eclectic Literary Forum, and Ellipsis.

Pastor Steve and Dr. Sam Waldron sit down to discuss a controversial topic in our age, does the Bible really have some imperatives that are different for men and women in the context of the church setting? (Beginning of Show Notes) My guest is: Sam Waldron (PhD, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) is the president of Covenant Baptist Theological Seminary and a pastor of Grace Reformed Baptist Church in Owensboro, Kentucky. He is the author of numerous books, including The End Times Made Simple and MacArthur's Millennial Manifesto: A Friendly Response. (Paper - The role of women in the church - 85 pgs).  (Hurley - man and woman in Biblical perspective; - 1 Tim 2:11 - 15) 1 Tim 2 - Men and Women in church.  Set up: - Saddleback Church, the California-based megachurch founded by Warren (purpose driven life) in 1980, was recently expelled from the Southern Baptist Convention for having a woman fill the office of teaching pastor. The church plans to appeal the decision later this year. Warren's reasons:  Great commission - for men and women. Women are to baptize, women are to teach. Acts 2 - women were filled with the Holy Spirit, and women spoke. His third verse of evidence was John 20:17 when Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell the disciples about his resurrection, noting that Jesus "chose her to be the first preacher of the Gospel." More: Want to get us to 1 Tim 2. Do you believe that women are created in the image of God? Equally? Do you believe that there are women who are intellectually gifted? Are there smart women? Bell curve? Do you believe that men and women are different? *Modern Psychology tells us that… So women preaching. Women pastors. *How do we decide on these things? *What's our doctrine of scripture?  Finished: 1 Tim 2V8 - I want the men to do the praying. So wrong to have a woman…?  Distinguish. Informal settings. V9 - Similarly. Praying understood.  Ellipsis.  2 choices: - I want - I want to pray, the women.. V 11 - what's mean? Turning from praying to teaching/learning. Adam…, the woman.  Why? V 12 - How many things? One or two?   Ancillary meetings. Youth group? How do some combine into one? V 13 - For Adam…  What does this mean? What's the point? V 14 - Not deceived. Deceived. (Aleph and A - super deceived).  Point? Q - easier to deceive men about certain things, and in certain circumstances? Q - easier to deceive women about certain things, and in certain circumstances? Do the gender differentiated commands map to differences in male/female natures? Are men and women equal in value…, but different in nature? Workarounds - Seems clear. How do people work around this? Paul wrong…Jesus, not Paul…Radical new interpretations. Esiegesis *Circumstances Ex Nihilo. *Deus Ex Machina Exegesis Examples? Was a localized problem - temple women teaching… How do we know this was not a local problem? “this means a woman can do…?” Some - we should be identifying women with gifts, and training, raising them up…. Some churches create other venues, mixed Website - Village. Staff, women, “minister.” Some - A woman can do anything that an unordained man can do.Alternate venues for women to preach.  1 Cor 11:1-16 - women proph. When? Where? Why? ***Judging the prophets - Grudem, Piper, Carson? 1 Cor 14:33b…  What's it mean? V 34 - reasons. What does it mean? What are some of the workarounds?Grudem/Piper view of prophecy? Gal 3:28 - mean?  Does it somehow trump? Helps for a women who's struggling with this? What to focus on? (Doctrine of scripture). Eph 5 (Col 3, Titus 2:4-5 train the younger women to be submissive, 1 Peter 3)In general, for the Christian family, husband/wife - what is the God intended role of the wife and husband respectively? Does that role map to their natures? Soft complementarianism. Do these passages really mean what they seem to? Or can we find radical, new ways of understanding them? Paul wrongWe wrong - misunderstand PaulGal 3:28 - trumps all (End of Show Notes)

You know the 3 little dots... should we stop using it because it's attitude and abrasive?

In the 2nd episode of "An Invitation to DESTROYER," host Jim Penola elaborates on the film's unflinching portrait of a moral but self-immolating woman in the form of Erin Bell (Nicole Kidman). Beneath and within Bell's many layers lies a tragic variation of the classic Femme Fatale archetype. One that stands out amid a recent glut of female-fronted action movies that, while technically pro-woman, also have little to offer beyond that.Support the show•••Shout-out to some of my lovely & amazing patrons: Rupa dasGupta, John Penola, Jane Penola, and Joseph Penola. ⚫ Get early access, extended episodes, and the Patreon-exclusive companion podcast "Ellipsis" only at Patreon.com/jimpenola ⚫ Follow us on Twitter: @AnInvitation and Instagram: @Invitation2Invitation ⚫ Email us: Invitation2Invitation@gmail.com•••

This week I sat down again with Eric Karkovack to talk about the three top WordPress stories on the top of our minds. Independently, we made nearly the same selections! It seems the temporary loss of active install stats at WP.org has created an opportunity to rethink long-held assumptions and find new ways forward. Our news picks are all related to this in one way or another. So there's a single throughline in this episode — what works, what doesn't, and what will take WordPress businesses forward in the product, agency, and hosting spaces.Are Active Install Counts Irrelevant to Your Plugin Business's Success? (Even if they were accurate?)There are always going to be developers who push the envelope when it comes to littering the dashboard and just making it a difficult user experience. Maybe data is part of the way we solve that.Eric KarkovacFirst up is Alex Denning's article at Ellipsis, "WordPress.org is ineffective for plugin distribution in 2022." Alex argues the likely temporary loss of Active Install Growth data for plugin owners is not a bottom-line, business-relevant concern. Apart from the revelation that that data itself was not just obfuscated and inexact but "basically garbage," Alex draws on Ellipsis' marketing experience and extensive data (as well as Iain Poulson's insights at WP Trends) to show 1-2% conversion rates are the norm for plugins in the WP.org repository. Only a couple of big players can crack the 100k+ install tiers today.The Plugin Repo's Glass CeilingAlex notes this "glass ceiling" has a lot to do with how the repo's search algorithm works. It's biased to favor plugins that have many active installs already, so if you're not there yet, it's not going to help you get there. As a result of these observations, Alex disrecommends the plugin repo for anyone thinking about launching a business there on the freemium model. He considers WP.org a poor distribution channel and assumes the freemium product model's fate is tied to it. On that point, we're doubtful and optimistic about exceptions and opportunities for plugin developers to make their own way, with or without the repo.While Eric and I don't fully agree with Alex, his data-based analysis does establish that the plugin repository is "broken" if it's intended to be a place where a small entrepreneur with a good product can break in and take off.Let's Fix What's Broken (The Plugin Repo) Not What Isn't (The Freemium Model)Matt Cromwell politely disagrees with Alex in a long, thoughtful post of his own: The Case for the WordPress Plugin Freemium Model. (There's a great Post Status Slack thread on it too.) In it, Matt describes ways plugin owners can make the wp.org plugin search engine work better for them, but he also notes a few of its deficiencies as well. His best point is that an average conversion rate is just that — an average. He's seen much better results due to marketing efforts he feels are accessible to many plugin vendors. Matt also points to examples of successful freemium plugin shops, like Paid Memberships Pro which recently did an A/B test with their pricing page, and the version with a freemium option converted better.Where Alex and Matt agree is how much the plugin repo has changed due to market saturation. It isn't an easy place to win in anymore. And I'm pretty sure Alex would agree with Matt this is true across the web as a whole — you can expect to have to work hard with stiff competition and give high attention to Google as well — not to mention all the other things that go into making and supporting a good product.Ideas for Improving the WordPress.org Plugin RepositoryEric and I also discussed the excellent suggestions for useful, actionable data that product owners — and even agencies — would like from a new, improved plugin directory. Vito Peleg's ideas are especially exciting and seemed to draw a nod from Matt Mullenweg on Twitter. We also note how better data for plugin owners might satisfy some needs that historically have led them to try all kinds of (often unpleasant) gimicks in the WordPress backend to connect with users and upsell or cross-market their products. In a comment at Post Status this week, Justin Labadie imagines how this could work as part of the plugin install process, along with other suggestions. Eric connected this line of thinking with Mark Zahra's question in a recent post at WP Mayor, Is Deceptive Marketing Ruining WordPress' Reputation?Plugin Developers Must Make Their Own WayEric asked (and answered) a big question at the WP Minute: What should plugin developers expect from WordPress? You've got to make your own way is a message I agree with, and I brought up my conversation with Till Krüss about Performance and the Plugin Business as an example of all the possibilities that open up if you think about meeting big needs nobody else is meeting or solving big problems others are creating!Follow the Leaders, Adopt StandardsWhere we end up is 10up's newly released resource site for Gutenberg Best Practices. It's got tutorials, resources, references, example code — and they're encouraging use of their GitHub discussion board for the site. It's intended to go beyond the official WordPress documentation, according Fabian Kaegy's launch announcement. It's a “more client-services-centric approach tailored to engineering enterprise-level editorial experiences.”To me, that's a signal WordPress has turned a corner with Gutenberg. Top agency adoption of Gutenberg is huge, and as we see a growing body of accumulated knowledge, standards, and best practices emerging, it signals and amplifies a wave of change.Building Products to Scale Opens Doors and Creates Opportunities for GrowthToward the end of the show I suggest that plugin developers (as well as agencies) targeting middle and low-end markets have tended to neglect standards around performance testing and security because their customers don't need to scale and because they can treat performance and security as a hosting problem. That's a barrier to accessing high-value enterprise clients, hosts, and agencies connected to both. It represents lost opportunities and money left on the table.

Where should you use an ellipsis in Python? How does it behave as a placeholder in a script, project, or stub file? What are the next goals for the Faster CPython project? This week on the show, Christopher Trudeau is here, bringing another batch of PyCoder's Weekly articles and projects.

Mercury must be in retrograde because Ellipses has finally found her way back to that absolute Fraud of a therapist Ian Herrin for another session! But alas, Ellipses you have to understand even though you don't want to kink shame, you can absolutely do better than to let this total Dexter looking murderous freak of a clitoris (ahem, I mean C.T.W.R.O.S.) tell you how to treat yourself when you're still recovering from a leprechaun encounter!! It is NOT okay for Ian to slide into your DMs or to Vader cosplay choke you. If you ever find a monkey's paw or claw, make sure you wish this face-loving freak never purports himself to be a therapist again. Did you follow the rainbow to this part of the episode description?
