![]() The Groom places the outer Cross in the beautiful wood base as the Pastor explains how God created man- Bold, Strong, the Defender of the Family yet how he is empty and incomplete without the woman. The Unity Cross is a multi-piece sculpture that is assembled during the Unity Service of your Wedding Ceremony representing how the -Two become One. Have you found a perfect fit in an Officiant? Contact me today to learn how together we can set your ceremony apart from all the rest by clicking here.Hand Blessing Ceremony: Bride and groom hold each other’s hands while a blessing if said. Just like the ceremonies I create from scratch, these ceremonies can be custom created around your personalities and personal interests. The best part about a unity ceremony is couples are not limited to any option. The officiant explains that Marriage takes 3 God, the Bride and Groom, and that by keeping God at the center of the marriage, His love will continue to bind the couple together as one throughout their married life. How it’s performed: The Groom holds a metal ring with 3 attached strands of rope (usually gold white and black to represent the Groom, God and the Bride), and the Bride braids the ropes. The God’s Knot Unity is a way to honor the Christian faith, symbolizing God’s design for marriage. The couple then pours the rest of their candy on top to represent a layer of protection for the family. Each child will then pour the contents of their jar representing how each child brings a special “ flavor” to the mix. First, the couple pours half of their candy in the bottom of a large jar to symbolize “ support: of the family. How it’s performed: Each member of the family fills a labeled mason jar with their favorite candy. This unity ceremony is perfect for couples with children that want to demonstrate the blending of their families. As they feed each other a bite, the Officiant explains that just as you can’t separate the peanut butter from the jelly or vice versa once the two pieces of bread are joined together into one sandwich, so the couple is also joined as one. How it’s performed: The couple heads over to the PB and J table where a peanut butter and jelly sandwich is waiting for them. Why peanut butter and jelly? Because they go so well together, just like you and your spouse-to-be! I’ll bet you never saw this one coming? I have to admit, it may seem odd, but what this unity represents is unmistakable. It’s at that time they would open the box, enjoy the wine and read each other’s love letters to remind them why they love each other and why they chose to get married. How It’s Performed: As the couple “locks” the box, the Officiant explains the box will remained locked until the couple experiences a difficult bump in the road during their marriage. They display the box in a prominent area of their home. ![]() During this ceremony, the couple locks a bottle of their favorite wine in a box along with sealed love letter’s they have written to the other but have not read. The Wine Box Ceremony aka Time Capsule is a great way to celebrate the love a couple has for each other along for their love and appreciation for wine. Either way it’s done, the Blanket Ceremony is a beautiful way to represent the couple’s oneness. This ceremony can also be done in a more modern way by wrapping the couple in a large colorful blanket while the Officiant reads a “blessing”. Those blankets are then removed, and the couple are then wrapped in a large single white blanket white symbolizing the couple’s dedication to filling their new lives with peace and happiness. How it’s performed: Traditionally, this ceremony is done with each individually wrapped in a blue blanket representing the couple’s separate lives before the wedding day. The Blanket Unity originated from an American Indian tradition, and represents the comfort and love the couple will give each other during their marriage. Today, I’m going to share a few creative unity ceremony ideas, some of which you may have never heard of! Blanket Unity What couples don’t realize is unity in marriage can be demonstrated in many different ways. If you’ve been to a wedding recently, you may have seen it done through the lighting of a unity candle, wine blending or through the sand ceremony. It symbolizes 2 hearts joined as 1 that can never be separated. A Unity Ceremony is the part of the wedding ceremony that demonstrates unity of the couple in marriage. The second test image is one I captured last month at the Twin Lights Lighthouse in the Highlands, New Jersey. I then compressed copies of that image with Squash, JPEGmini, and ImageOptim with the quality sliders set at 100%. From Lightroom I exported a full resolution 3692px x 3264px JPEG at 100% quality. The first image was my bird landing photo from a few weeks ago. I will compare each software with JPEG quality set to 100% and then 70%. I wanted to do my own test.įor this test, I compressed images with each of the following: JPEGmini, Squash, and ImageOptim. Other commenters suggest that using the image quality slider in Adobe Lightroom would be just as effective. One other person agreed with me and indicated that he got good results with the FREE ImageOptim app for macOS. To me the comparison was unfair and I took issue with this on MacWorld’s Facebook page. I am not sure why the author chose to compare Squash to the JPEGmini Pro when JPEGmini is available for $20. The article was a cursory review and comparison of Realmac’s Squash ($20) to JPEGmini Pro. A recently article in MacWorld promote me to take a look at alternatives. While JPEGmini Pro has worked well for me I have never done a comparison test with other software. The plug-in can be integrated with any of Adobe® Lightroom’s export presets. When I export my photos directly from Lightroom or Photoshop, they are automatically optimized by JPEGmini to the lowest file size possible without ever sacrificing quality. JPEGmini Pro includes a plug-in for Adobe® Lightroom® and a Photoshop® extension! I have used it successfully with the Creative Cloud version of Lightroom and Photoshop. The software reduces the file size of my photos significantly, saving me space on a server and speeding up my website. I have used JPEGmini Pro for a few years as part of my workflow for posting images to my WordPress website. JPEGmini is available for Windows and macOS with support for Adobe Lightroom 5 and later Photoshop: CC 2015.1 and later. The software is available in two consumer versions, JPEGmini ($20) and JPEGmini Pro ($99). JPEGmini is a photo optimization technology that reduces the file size of JPEG photos while preserving the resolution and quality of the original photos. Ideally, I would be able to display my images at a decent size while also reduce the size of the images. I think it's hard to see detail when the images are too small. However, I feel that small images sizes just don't work well for many of my images. I could reduce the file size further by uploading smaller images - e.g. While this reduces the file size considerably, it may not be enough. For this reason, I always downsize my images to between 960 pixels to 1024 pixels on the long side. This will be frustrating to my websites viewers. Loading a full-size image also impact the performance of the website. ![]() Uploading a full resolution image to my website would use considerable bandwidth and space on my server.

We should use them to build up, not tear down. It is also a reminder that we need to be careful about how we use our talents and gifts. This story is a warning to us not to let our pride get in the way of our work or our relationships with others. As a result, God confused their language and scattered them across the earth. But their pride gets the best of them and they begin to boast about their accomplishments. We see in this story a people who are working together, using their God-given talents to build something great.

So that is the story of the Tower of Babel. The city was called Babel because that’s what the confusion sounded like to God. They abandoned the city and went off in different directions. People could no longer understand each other. God saw what they were doing and he confused their language. They wanted to make a name for themselves, so that people would know about them. They decided to build a city and a tower that reached to the sky. A long time ago, all the people on earth spoke the same language. It tells how God confused the language of the people who were building a great tower. The story of the Tower of Babel is found in Genesis 11.

Pepper Snapple which produces Venom Energy.Ĭruz points also to the pressure teens feel to achieve in academics and extracurricular activities in order to be accepted into college and how energy drinks seem to promise help with productivity and performance. ![]() A 2020 health report by Sharp Reese Steely Medical Group cites, “Brightly colored containers, eye-catching logos, and candy flavors make them appealing to young consumers.” And partnering with fast food restaurants means young, hungry teens can buy cans of Monster Energy at White Castle, Red Bull Slushies at Sonic Drive-Ins, and Red Bull-infused “Big Jack Energy” at Jack in the Box.Ī 2014 Senate report entitled “ Buzz Kill” surveyed the 14 largest energy drink brands in the US and came to the conclusion, “While energy drink companies have repeatedly claimed that their targe t consumers are adults, four of the 12 responding companies - constituting over 90 percent of the energy drink market - refused to commit to not marketing to youth under age 18.” Those four companies are Red Bull, Monster Energy, Rockstar, and Dr. The energy drink market is a $55 billion a year global industry and it has a strong and growing presence on social media where teens spend a lot of free time. In the US, companies report they do not market to young kids, but their intentions seem misleading. Marketing and widespread availability are partly to blame for teenagers consuming energy drinks, according to which brings awareness to brands like Ghost LLC, Ryse Fuel, Cellucor, and Alani Nutrition that partner with candies to make Kool Aid and Skittles flavored drinks. For example, Monster Energy and Rockstar Energy award outstanding high school student athletes with the “Energy Drink Player of the Game.” Photos of these teen student athletes are taken with packages of energy drinks and other company paraphernalia. ![]() Those efforts aside, the industry has mostly dodged US regulations limiting the sale of energy drinks to minors. And, in 2014, the American Beverage Association volunta rily agreed not to sell or market energy drink products in K-12 schools. In addition, grassroots bills have sprung up in multiple states following high profile teen deaths associated with the consumption of energy drinks. For example, in Suffolk County, New York, the sale of energy drinks to individuals under 18 years old is prohibited. In the United States, there is no federal age limit for buying energy drinks, but some localities have implemented their own restrictions. How old do you have to be to purchase energy drinks like Monster, Rockstar, Bang, and Redbull in the United States? |
