Jim Clark - Remembering a Quiet Champion
At racing circuits across the world, the name Jim Clark is spoken with regard and reverence. The man himself would probably be mildly embarrassed at the attention, but while millions know the name, comparatively few are aware of the Jim Clark Rooms memorial in his home town of Duns in the Scottish Borders.

During our visit to Scotland, we rented a quaint little cottage on the Duns Castle Estate. It's part of the town's historic walking tour and we often had people walking by our little house as they marveled at its castle-like structure. On the outside, it resembles a tiny little castle, complete with crenelated top! In 1770, this was constructed as part of the massive gate structure that kept the castle grounds secure. Now, it's a modest little one bedroom vacation rental ... and if you're Sensitive enough, you'll be able to tell, that this holiday house comes complete with a resident ghost! Could it be the confused spirit of a young soldier from long ago, or is this a gate-keeper who still patrols the ramparts? We don't know. But footsteps ascending the creaking staircase after midnight, would make YOU wonder too!

SUMMARY
=======
The doctrine of the Trinity, considered the core of Christian theology by Trinitarians, is the result of continuous exploration by the church of the biblical data, thrashed out in debate and treatises, eventually formulated at the First Council of Nicaea in AD 325 in a way they believe is consistent with the biblical witness, and further refined in later councils and writings. The most widely recognized Biblical foundations for the doctrine's formulation are in the Gospel of John.Nontrinitarianism is any of several Christian beliefs that reject the Trinitarian doctrine that God is three distinct persons in one being. Modern nontrinitarian groups views differ widely on the nature of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.
BALMORAL CASTLE - WikiVidi Documentary
Balmoral Castle is a large estate house in Royal Deeside, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, near the village of Crathie, 6.2 mi west of Ballater and 6.8 mi east of Braemar. Balmoral has been one of the residences for members of the British Royal Family since 1852, when the estate and its original castle were purchased privately by Prince Albert, consort to Queen Victoria. They remain as the private property of the royal family and are not the property of the Crown. Soon after the estate was purchased by the royal family, the existing house was found to be too small and the current Balmoral Castle was commissioned. The architect was William Smith of Aberdeen, although his designs were amended by Prince Albert. The castle is an example of Scottish baronial architecture, and is classified by Historic Scotland as a category A listed building. The new castle was completed in 1856 and the old castle demolished shortly thereafter. The Balmoral Estate has been added to by successive members of the...

SUMMARY
=======
Palamism or the Palamite theology comprises the teachings of Gregory Palamas (c.1296–1359), whose writings defended the Orthodox notion of Hesychasm against the attack of Barlaam. Followers of Palamas are sometimes referred to as Palamites.
Seeking to defend the assertion that humans can become like God through deification without compromising God's transcendence, Palamas distinguished between God's inaccessible essence and the energies through which he becomes known and enables to share his divine life. The central idea of the Palamite theology is a distinction between the divine essence and the divine energies that is not a merely conceptual distinction.Palamism is a central element of Eastern Orthodox theology, being made into dogma in the Eastern Orthodox Church by the Hesychast councils.
Palamism has been described as representing the deepest assimilation of the monastic and dogmatic traditions, combined with a repudiation of the philosophical notion of the exterior wisdom.Historically, Western Christianity has tended to reject Palamism, especially the essence–energies distinction, characterizing it as a heretical introduction of an unacceptable division in the Trinity and suggestive of polytheism. Further, the associated practice of hesychasm used to achieve theosis was characterized as magic. More recently, some Roman Catholic thinkers have taken a positive view of Palamas's teachings, including the essence–energies distinction, arguing that it does not represent an insurmountable theological division between Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy.The rejection of Palamism by the West and by those in the East who favoured union with the West (the Latinophrones), actually contributed to its acceptance in the East, according to Martin Jugie, who adds: Very soon Latinism and Antipalamism, in the minds of many, would come to be seen as one and the same thing.
