LAMMAS
DAY
- August 1, marked the beginning
of the harvest, and especially celebrated the first wheat crop, or
that of corn. It derives from the ancient English festival the Gule
of August, a pagan dedication of the first fruits that the early
English church later converted to Christian usage. On Lammas Day,
loaves of bread were baked from the first-ripened grain and brought
to the churches to be consecrated. The word “lammas” comes from
the Old English hlaf, "loaf," and maesse, "mass"
or “feast." Through the centuries, "loaf-mass"
became corrupted in spelling and pronunciation to Lammas. To the
Celts, this was Lughnasaid, the feast of the wedding of the Sun god
and the Earth goddess, and also a harvest festival. In Ireland,
baskets of blueberries are still offered to a sweetheart in
commemoration of the original fertility festival. In Scotland, the
Lammastide fairs became famous for trial marriages that could be
ended without question after a year. Much lore is associated with
this day, including this proverb: After Lammas Day, corn ripens as
much by night as by day.
tick-tock - the sound of a clock ticking. / Clock / Time / Future
Thoughts of Big Ben with the London 2012 Olympics being re-aired in July 2020.
The original bell was a 16 ton (16.3-tonne) hour bell, cast on 6 August 1856
21 August 1877-January 1878: The clock was stopped for three weeks to allow the tower and mechanism to be cleaned and repaired. The old escape wheel was replaced.
12 August 1949: The clock slowed by four and a half minutes after a flock of starlings perched on the minute hand
5 August 1976: First and only major breakdown. The air brake speed regulator of the chiming mechanism broke
11 August 2007: Start of 6-week stoppage for maintenance. Bearings in the clock's chime train and the "great bell" striker were replaced, for the first time since installation
August 2015: The clock was discovered to be running 7 seconds fast, and coins were removed from its pendulum to correct the error, which caused it to run slow for a time
21 August 2017: Start of 4-year silencing of the chimes during maintenance and repair work to the clock mechanism, and repairs and improvements to the clock tower building.
In August 2017, satirical news site The Rochdale Herald published a spoof article stating that the bell was to be renamed "Massive Mohammed"
In 2012, the tower commonly called Big Ben was renamed the Elizabeth Tower in honour of the Queen.
Conservation efforts on Elizabeth Tower began in August 2017, with initial plans to silence the bell until the refurbishment's estimated completion in 2021.
Big Ben: Cost of repairing Elizabeth Tower rises by £18.6m
Plans to put a new Olympics-style delivery body in charge of the works were approved by MPs and peers last year.
The need for more money was only discovered during a survey of the 177-year-old structure in central London.
The House of Commons Commission said it was "extremely disappointed" that the cost had risen to £79.7m.

QUOTE: Our vision is one of peace, security, and prosperity—in this region, and in the world. Our goal is a coalition of nations who share the aim of stamping out extremism and providing our children a hopeful future that does honor to God. President Donald J. Trump SECURING A HISTORIC AGREEMENT: President Donald J. Trump has secured the first agreement to normalize relations between Israel and a major Arab country in decades. President Donald J. Trump has brokered an agreement to normalize relations between the United Arab Emirates and Israel – the first such agreement between Israel and a major Arab country since 1994.
SHAPING PEACE THROUGH BOLD LEADERSHIP: President Trump recognized it was time for a new approach to achieve peace, security, and opportunity for the people of the Middle East.
BUILDING A MORE PEACEFUL AND PROSPEROUS REGION: This agreement will help put the region on a truly transformative path: one with stability, security, and opportunity.
Israel and UAE reach historic peace deal, Israel to suspend annexation
The peace deal was the product of lengthy discussions between Israel, the UAE and the United States that accelerated recently, White House officials said.
Israel and the UAE agreed to full normalization of relations in a phone call with US President Donald Trump on Thursday, marking the first peace treaty between Israel and an Arab country in 25 years.
- Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed, US President Donald Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
President Donald J. Trump, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the United Arab Emirates spoke today and agreed to the full normalization of relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates. This historic diplomatic breakthrough will advance peace in the Middle East region and is a testament to the bold diplomacy and vision of the three leaders and the courage of the United Arab Emirates and Israel to chart a new path that will unlock the great potential in the region.
The United States and Israel recall with gratitude the appearance of the United Arab Emirates at the White House reception held on January 28, 2020, at which President Trump presented his Vision for Peace
As set forth in the Vision for Peace, all Muslims who come in peace may visit and pray at the Al Aqsa Mosque, and Jerusalem’s other holy sites should remain open for peaceful worshippers of all faiths.
President Donald Trump announced Thursday that Israel and the United Arab Emirates have reached a "historic" peace agreement. As part of the deal, Israel will "suspend" plans to annex parts of the West Bank, according to a joint Israel-UAE-US statement that Trump tweeted Thursday morning.
Trump told reporters in the Oval office that he had a call with the leaders from both countries who had agreed to exchange embassies and ambassadors and "begin cooperation across the board." He said he expected other countries to follow the UAE's lead on normalizing relations going forward. "We are already discussing this with other nations,"
UAE is the third Arab country to officially recognize Israel. Israel has ties with Egypt (1979) and Jordan (1994) but the U.A.E. is the first Gulf Arab state to announce formal relations with Israel.

Every shepherd of Israel had a rod (shevet) and staff that were used to guide, protect, and set boundaries for the sheep. The shepherd used the rod to drive away predators like coyotes and wolves. He didn’t use his rod to beat his sheep. Psalm 23 says, “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want… Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” Yeshua said, “I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd gives his life for his sheep.” (John 10:11) Yeshua, the Good Shepherd, carefully watches over the welfare of His flock. He gave His very life for His sheep.
The title of this week’s Torah portion, Ki Tetze (when you go out) is derived from the Hebrew root word yatsa, meaning to leave, go or come out. This refers to the children of Israel who have left Egypt and now find themselves standing at the brink of entering the Promised Land in fulfillment of God’s promise.

Israel Antiquities Authority discovered a cache of more than 400 solid gold coins and pieces of cut gold coins. The gold cuttings are exceptionally rare and never before found in excavations in Israel — a fragment of a gold solidus of the Byzantine emperor Theophilos (829 – 842 CE), minted in the empire’s capital of Constantinople.
The clay jug holding the coins had been firmly closed, and held in place with a nail before being placed in a hole and covered with dirt. There’s no way of knowing who buried it or for what purpose, but clearly it was concealed to be retrieved when the right time came.

Psalm 27:1 - The LORD is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life— whom shall I dread?
It's an old custom to read (or to sing) the Book of Psalms during the month of Elul. In the famous Song of Moses, it is written: וַיּאמְרוּ לֵאמר אָשִׁירָה לַיהוָה / “and they spoke, saying: ‘I will sing to the LORD’ (Exod. 15:1). This phrase can be formed into an acronym for Elul (אלול), and the sages therefore reasoned that hearing the Psalms were vital during the Season of Repentance and Days of Favor.
Of all the great Psalms, however, Psalm 27 is considered the central one of the season of teshuvah. The midrash on the Psalms states that the word ori (אוֹרִי), “my light,” refers to Rosh Hashanah (based on Psalm 37:6) whereas the word yishi (יִשְׁעִי), “my salvation” (lit. “my Jesus”) refers to the atonement given on Yom Kippur. King David also mentions that God would hide him in his sukkah (בְּסֻכּה) in the time of trouble, referring to the holiday of Sukkot (Psalm 27:5).

Jerusalem - In Israel, Kushner says 'stage is set' for Mideast progress
JERUSALEM at the Prime Minister's residence in Jerusalem. (AP) - White House adviser Jared Kushner on Sunday trumpeted the recent agreement by Israel and the United Arab Emirates to establish diplomatic relations as a historic breakthrough and said "the stage is set" for other Arab states to follow suit, but he gave no indication that any new deals were imminent. Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the agreement with the UAE would bring "unbridled" trade and opportunities.
"You will see how the sparks fly," he said. Netanyahu said the deal with the UAE proves the Palestinians no longer have a "veto" over regional peace. The Palestinians have accused the UAE of treason. "If we have to wait for the Palestinians, we will have to wait forever," Netanyahu said. "As more Arab and Muslim countries join the circle of peace, the Palestinians will eventually understand their veto has dissipated and they will be hard pressed to stay outside the community of peace."

Monday’s flight, on a narrowed Boeing 737-900 aircraft, will be carrying senior delegations from the US and Israel for further talks with UAE officialson issues such as trade and travel before an expected signing ceremony. Israel is hoping for a mid-September signing event, according to Israeli Regional Cooperation Minister Ofir Akunis.
Israel’s national airline carrier El Al will operate the first commercial flight from Tel Aviv to Abu Dhabi on Monday following a US-brokered normalization pact between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) earlier this month. The flight was listed on the Israel Airports Authority’s website on Friday as ELY 971, set to take off in the morning hours of Monday, August 31, and the return flight, ELY 972, from Abu Dhabi to Tel Aviv, is set for Tuesday morning. The flights numbers are a nod to the countries’ respective calling codes: +971 for the UAE, and +972 for Israel.
Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of US President Donald Trump and a trusted senior advisor, will lead the US delegation. Kushner made his way to Israel on Sunday for talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other senior Israeli officials ahead of the official trip. National Security Adviser Meir Ben-Shabbat will lead the Israeli delegation to the UAE
Following the historic August 13 announcement of the Israel-UAE normalization pact, formally called the Abraham Accord, a number of joint deals and agreements were quickly announced. And they target a variety of fields including COVID-19 and health tech research. Israel’s Pluristem and Abu Dhabi Stem Cells Center signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding to develop therapies for diseases including COVID-19; and UAE-based APEX National Investment and Israel’s TeraGroup announced a strategic commercial agreement to develop research and studies on the novel coronavirus. These two developments came after Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) entered a historic collaboration agreement with Group 42, a company based in Abu Dhabi, to develop new COVID-19 focused systems and improve the healthcare situation of the entire region. The parties quietly announced this deal a month prior to the formal accord between the countries.
The White House said Israel and the UAE are further expected to announce “bilateral agreements on investment, tourism, direct flights, security, telecoms, energy, healthcare, culture, the establishment of reciprocal embassies, and other areas of mutual benefit.”
Late last week, Bloomberg reported that two of the biggest banks in Israel and Dubai, the most populous city in the UAE and one of the seven emirates that make up the federation, are in talks for unspecified cooperation.
Recently, a leading Israeli law firm, GKH Law Offices, announced a webinar for Israeli entrepreneurs and business people focused on “local regulation, taxation, banking, the structure of the legal system and business opportunities in the UAE,” in collaboration with the Dubai law firm BSA Ahmad Bin Hezeem & Associates LLP.

While it is prophetic modern day Iran will destroy the Great Whore's throne in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, it will never destroy Israel. But it will instigate the Psalm 83 war by backing a 10 Arab State coalition to attack Israel. To their own destruction.

David Blaine - This is my most ambitious project to date. It's also the most complex, so it will now take place in Arizona. I'm hoping to ascend in a few days, but check my YouTube channel for updates and set a reminder to get notified when I take off. Thanks for your support and I'll see you in the clouds. I was planning on doing it in NJ & NYC on August 31st—my hometown. However, due to the complexity of the project and weather conditions, we are not going forward with the plans we had for NYC.
The good news is this ground breaking research and discovery flight will happen for the first time in Arizona. Check back here for the date confirmation—aiming for September 1 or 2 (weather depending).http://yt.be/davidblaineascension
