Yeah, his knuckleball sure kept many batters off balance.  It was a hit or miss.  He had to have a personal catcher since Jason Varitek refused. 😂  I was watching that playoff game when Aaron Boone hit the walkoff home run to advance the Yankees into the WorldSeries.  I did feel sorry for Wakefield, but he never got angry when being interviewed after the game.  Next day in work though … my co-workers were pretty upset. But they soon rejoiced 🙄when the Florida Marlins beat the Yankees in the 2003 final game to be world champs. 😏

 
 
Per Hello Magazine
Hanna Fillingham
 
Dylan Dreyer (meteorologist and anchor of the TodayShow 3rd hour) and her husband Brian Fichera (a cameraman for NBC) are mourning the tragic loss of two close friends. He took to instagram on Wednesday to pay an emotional tribute following the death of Stacy Wakefield, who passed away aged 53, just five months after her husband, Boston Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield. 
 
Brian shared a series of photos of himself smiling with the late couple on his social media page, alongside the following message “Heartbroken. A friendship I’ll cherish forever and a family I’ll love forever.  Rest in peace Stacy.  I miss you Timmy.  Brianna and Trevor we love you.”
 
His followers and friends were quick to offer words of comfort, with one writing, “such a tragedy. so sorry for the loss of your friends,” while another wrote “so sorry for your loss! Poor kids … how do you ever adjust to losing your parents so young?  Sending my deepest condolences.”

So who knows if anybody is on the fence spiritually and this will trigger them to make a decision for Jesus since life is so short?

I chose to put this under "uplifting news". How nice to sing both in Hebrew and Arabic!

The separation between jubilee years is either 49 or 50
We have been told that jubilees are separated by 49 years
We've also been told that the jubilee year is the first
year of the next 49 year jubilee period.
But, when you list all of the years, starting at 3970 BC
and mark them at 50 year intervals, you see something very
surprising.

God created man on 4004 BC. Then at 3970
33.5 years later, Adam sinned
Jesus was born in September on 3 BC
Jesus was crucified in April on 31 AD
- remember there is no 0 year between BC and AD
Jesus was 33.5 years old when he died
From 3970 BC to 31 AD = 4000 years

The year Jesus was crucified was the 80th jubilee
4000 ÷ 50 = 80 jubilees
(try to divide by 49 and you get a fraction)

31 AD to 2031 AD is 2000 years
2000 ÷ 50 = 40 jubilees

40 jubilees + 80 jubilees = 120 jubilees

Gen 6:3  And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man,
for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

Remember God is perfect, man tries to use fractions.

I attached a Word document that lists all of the shemitah years.
Each * asterisk denotes a Jubilee separated by 50 years

If anyone would like a copy of the vbs script that creates the Word document.
Let me know and I'll add a text document with the contents of the script.

Some people think that the Tribulation must fit in a complete Shemitah cycle.

@patrician I suspect that the two witnesses that recognize the new moon in September will be none other than the two witnesses we've read about in Rev 11:3. It would be a good beginning for the Tribulation. "And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth." The world will never be the same from that time going forward. By the way, September is just a little over two weeks away, so much for elections in November.
