Let's just say that I really wished that this company had better sense than to refer their customers to HC Processing for their financing needs and I really regret that we didn't pay more attention to all the loop holes in the contract. The contract is designed so that you the customer WILL pay ridiculous interest and fees. My husband bought hearing aids fron NuWay Hearing in Mississippi who finances through HC Processing Center.

]]> Comment on The Sacred Romance by Doug http://yumbrad.com/archives/2004/08/09/the-sacred-romance/comment-page-1/#comment-32240 Doug Sun, 25 Sep 2011 03:37:08 +0000 /?p=12#comment-32240 I just finished this book today. I had started it a year ago after attending one of John Eldredge's Boot Camps in Colorado. I put it down a year ago feeling like it wasn't saying anything significant to me, and it seemed to be a bit too "wordy" for me. However, being in a kind of spiritual desert currently, I brought it to the mountains to finish it, which I did today. I would like to say that the last two chapters, including the one you quote, spoke loud and clear to me, as they seem to have done to you. I was intrigued with the term "ontological lightness," and googled it. Your site came up; wow, a kindred spirit, a confirmation, and a name for the nagging dissatisfaction of our "less-wild lovers." Jesus is the lover of our soul. Keep on remembering toward heaven, and stay focused on becoming "ontologically substantive." I just finished this book today.

I would like to share some personal insights with you. Soul has been given two tools to work with in this physical plane...attitude and attention. What you place your attention on and the attitude you adopt towards that determines the kind of life you lead. Another one is that to reach God realization it IS entirely up to you. Help is there along the way, but the path is determined solely by you. Believing in something and knowing it to be true are not the same. Faith seldom leads to a path of enlightenment. More often it is the determination to "know" that reveals the heavenly worlds to you. It seems like you are torn between the two. Read the book "Illusion" by Richard Bach. It has many aha moments. Read it often as you will continuely find more revelations with each reading. "Spiritually is caught, not taught". When you are open to it spirit will find you.

Don't enable font-smoothing when using MiscFixedSC613 font for Mac. If you want font smoothing, download and use SECOND link/font on that page. In Mac, it will have the font name - "Fixed". It looks great on Xcode! BTW, thanks for sharing the link to that page. I've always like 6x13.fon, but couldn't find it on Mac even after a long search. Your post made my day! :)) Regarding the o’s and 8 being filled. Don’t enable font-smoothing when using MiscFixedSC613 font for Mac.

Not sure if it would have other adverse effects, but you could do this do turn off font-anti-aliasing in xcode: defaults write com.apple.Xcode AppleAntiAliasingThreshold 100 If it does more harm than good, you could turn it back on: defaults write com.apple.Xcode AppleAntiAliasingThreshold 0 I'll try it and comment back (didn't think to use this font in Xcode, great idea! ... haven't yet integrated emacs as xcode external editor, ala: http://mark.aufflick.com/blog/2004/08/23/sensible-emacs-usage-with-apple-s-xcode) Hmmm, Ulf – doing the defaults write thing in terminal fixed my flood filled o’s in emacs.

I love the 6x13 font when coding and downloaded the fonts for use in Xcode, but as You mentioned all o's got flood filled and that i haven't been able to solve. Any advice would be much appreciated!
