Holy See

Hey fellow adventurers! In an earlier post I promised to elaborate and (attempt to) explain the Holy See. It’s a bit complicated so I’ll give a brief explanation and link a must-read site and a must-watch video. They’re super quick and very interesting!

Very simply: The Holy See is the government of the Catholic church. The pope both rules over Vatican City and controls the Holy See. But don’t get them confused. The Holy See owns property all around the world (mostly churches), and Vatican City is just the most famous. The Holy See often involves itself with international issues, including, but not limited to issues regarding human rights, peace and conflict prevention, poverty eradication and development, environmental protection, and inter-religious understanding. Though we can’t forget its ties to Catholicism, since the Holy See is also in charge of making laws for the Catholic church.

You can read a little bit more about it here, and its relations to the United States (I apologize if anyone outside of the United States feels ostracized since that is never my intention):

Or you can watch the YouTube video down below. I love cute, little informational videos like this. I highly recommend you watch the whole thing, but if you really want to skip the history part since that was my last blog post, skip to 1:38.

By the way if you’ve been leaving me questions, I’m sorry that I don’t respond to them very often. To be honest, I have a hard time getting to them because I must filter out at least 1,000 spam comments every week. Spam containing links is most of what I see. And I actually don’t get that many questions about the content of the blog. The question that comes up most often is what program I use. I use Word Press through the site where my father-in-law bought the web address bryannabartel.com. However, it’s very frustrating doing it that way because even though I do pay for Word Press through the website, Word Press acts like I’m just another blogger using the free version. The second most popular question is about my layout. It just came with Word Press. And the last most popular question is whether it’s difficult/time consuming to write a blog. For me, that depends on the topic. Music and food blogs are my favorite because most of the time is spent listening to music and eating food, so no, not difficult. But some topics require more research, and it honestly feels like I’m back in college again writing a short essay sometimes. Depending on what’s happening in my life, it can be difficult to write 3 blog posts a week. So far, I’ve only missed one blog though. I do have the snacks, uneaten, that I was planning on reviewing for that post so later on I might just double post one of these days. And while I’m talking about myself (which I never do), I might as well tell anyone who doesn’t know me, I’m pregnant. When the baby is due in July, I’m going to try really hard to keep up this blog but I can’t promise that I won’t miss some days. This is my first kid, and I really can’t say how blogging and being a mother will go. Plenty of mothers do it so maybe I’ll still be publishing 3 posts a week. If you’ve read this far, thank you, and that’s my little heads up that this blog might get even more sporadic later this year. Well that’s all for today’s post! Thank you so much for reading for my blog! And as always, until our next adventure!

  1. I like the valuable info you provide in your articles.
    I will bookmark your weblog and check again here frequently.
    I’m quite certain I’ll learn lots of new stuff right here!
    Good luck for the next!

  2. Have you ever thought about including a little bit more
    than just your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable
    and everything. However think about if you
    added some great photos or video clips to give your posts more, “pop”!
    Your content is excellent but with pics and videos,
    this blog could certainly be one of the best in its niche.
    Terrific blog!

  3. Appreciating the time and effort you put into your site
    and in depth information you provide. It’s nice to come across a blog every once in a while that isn’t the
    same outdated rehashed material. Fantastic read! I’ve saved your site
    and I’m including your RSS feeds to my Google
    account.

  4. Good day! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established
    blog. Is it very difficult to set up your
    own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things
    out pretty fast. I’m thinking about setting up my own but I’m not sure where to start.
    Do you have any tips or suggestions? With thanks

  5. Die Steuerberatergenossenschaft DATEV empfiehlt dazu, man sollte sich darüber vor beim zuständigen Finanzamt erkundigen. Damit stellt man nicht
    nur das Finanzamt zufrieden, sondern sichert auch seine Ansprüche auf
    Gewährleistung. Außerdem gilt für Handwerkerrechnungen eine Aufbewahrungsfrist
    von zwei Jahren sowie von fünf Jahren für Belege von Bauleistungen am Eigenheim.
    Wenn der Absender etwa über sein Fakturaprogramm eine elektronische PDF-Rechnung qualifiziert signiert,
    errechnet die Software übers gesamte Dokument
    einen Hashwert und kodiert diesen hierbei privaten Schlüssel des Absenders.
    Dieser Schlüssel ist u. a. auf einem USB-Stick gespeichert und
    nur für den Absender zugänglich, wenn er beim Signieren im Rechner
    eingesteckt ist. Das Zertifikat enthält Verweise auf seinen Herausgeber, den vom Herausgeber beglaubigten Namen und den öffentlichen Schlüssel des Absenders.
    Stimmen beide Werte überein, kann man auf die Unversehrtheit der Rechnung vertrauen. Außerdem kann der Adobe Reader durch Online-Anfrage beim Herausgeber eine Auskunft über Echtheit und Gültigkeit
    des Zertifikats einholen, das sogenannte OCSP (Online Certificate
    Status Protocol). Öffnet der Empfänger die erhaltene Rechnung etwa im
    Adobe Reader, errechnet dieser den Hashwert des Dokuments und dekodiert über den öffentlichen Schlüssel des Absenders den mitgelieferten Hash.
    Dieses Protokoll ist auch bei wiederkehrenden Rechnungen desselben Gläubigers von Mal zu Mal einmal mehr einzuholen.Article_Title Bonrollen & Thermorollen &

  8. Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this site.
    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance”
    between user friendliness and appearance. I must say you’ve done a excellent job with
    this. Additionally, the blog loads super quick for me on Firefox.
    Excellent Blog!

  9. I’ve been browsing on-line greater than 3 hours today, yet I never found any attention-grabbing article
    like yours. It’s pretty value enough for me. In my view, if all
    site owners and bloggers made excellent content material as
    you probably did, the web shall be much more useful than ever before.

  15. Mehrscheiben-Isolierglas (MIG), auch als Wärmedämmverglasung oder Isolierverglasung bezeichnet,
    ist ein aus zwei oder mehr Glasscheiben zusammengesetztes Bauelement für Fenster und andere Verglasungen. Zwischen den Scheiben befindet sich ein Hohlraum, der gas-
    und feuchtigkeitsdicht verschlossen ist und der Schall- und
    Wärmedämmung dient. In den ersten Jahrzehnten seit Aufkommen von Mehrscheiben-Isolierglas (1950er bis 1970er Jahre) hatte die Marke Thermopane im deutschen Sprachraum eine große Verbreitung.

    Vorläufer waren die Doppelverglasung ohne Luftabschluss, das Verbundfenster und die doppelte Einzelverglasung beim Kasten-
    oder beim Winterfenster. Der Name wurde zeitweilig zum Synonym für Zweischeiben-Isolierglas.
    Als Produktbezeichnung werden auch die Ausdrücke Klimaschutzglas, Thermoglas, Wärmedämmglas oder
    Wärmeschutzglas verwendet. Ausdrücke wie Sonnenschutzglas, Sichtschutzglas, Einbruchschutzglas oder Schallschutzglas bezeichnen generell ein Mehrscheiben-Isolierglas mit speziellen zusätzlichen Eigenschaften, obwohl eine
    einzelne Flachglaskonstruktion diese ebenfalls haben kann.
    In Opposition zu wärmeren Klimazonen steht in Zentral- und Nordeuropa bei wärmedämmenden Fenstern weniger die Reduzierung der erforderlichen Kühlungsenergie (hohe Betriebskosten von Klimaanlagen),
    als vielmehr eine wesentliche Einsparung bei der Heizenergie für Gebäude
    im Vordergrund.

  16. Hey there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with?
    I’m going to start my own blog soon but I’m having a tough time choosing
    between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
    P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to
    ask!

  17. I have been surfing online more than 3 hours today,
    yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
    It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you
    did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.

  18. We’re a bunch of volunteers and opening a brand new scheme in our community.
    Your site provided us with useful information to work on. You have performed a formidable task and our
    whole group can be thankful to you.

  19. Very nice post. I just stumbled upon your weblog and wanted to say that I’ve really enjoyed surfing
    around your blog posts. After all I’ll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you write again soon!

  20. Heya exceptional blog! Does running a blog like this require a great deal of work?
    I have no expertise in coding however I had been hoping
    to start my own blog in the near future. Anyways, should you have any suggestions or techniques for new blog owners
    please share. I understand this is off subject but I simply needed to ask.
    Kudos!

  21. Great goods from you, man. I’ve understand your stuff
    previous to and you are just extremely excellent. I really like what
    you have acquired here, certainly like what you are saying and the way in which you say it.

    You make it enjoyable and you still care for to keep
    it smart. I cant wait to read much more from you. This is
    actually a tremendous website.

  22. Du suchst eine Herrenuhr, die Du im Büro tragen kannst.
    Eine Uhr, die im Kundengespräch Deine distinguiert elegante Erscheinung unterstreicht, die Schmuck und funktionaler Zeitanzeiger ist.
    Eine Uhr, die Seriosität und Professionalität
    ausstrahlt, Vertrauen aufbaut und trotzdem nicht von Deiner
    Kompetenz ablenkt. Lederarmband oder Metallarmband, was
    passt da besser? Holzarmbanduhr oder Schweizer Chronograph?

    Seiko, Citizen et alia namhafte Marken haben garantiert die passende Uhr
    für Dich im Sortiment. Aber was, wenn Du zum Sport gehst?
    Für den Sport brauchst Du eine andere Uhr. Abhängig davon, ob
    Du segelst, tauchst oder läufst, ob Du schwimmen gehst oder Outdoor-Sport einer anderen Art betreibst, sollte Deine Armbanduhr bestimmte Funktionen erfüllen. Die elegante Armbanduhr, die Du vormittags im Büro trägst, ist
    wahrscheinlich nicht wasserdicht und kann auch nicht deutlich mehr als die
    Zeit anzuzeigen. Hier erfährst Du, worauf Du beim Kauf Deiner Uhr achten solltest.
    Die Uhr als einziger erlaubter Schmuck des Mannes?
    Die Uhr als einziger erlaubter Schmuck des Mannes? Nichts unversucht lassen raten Karriereratgeber dazu, dass Männer keinen Schmuck tragen sollten, dass
    sie womöglich auch auf die Armbanduhr verzichten sollten.

  23. What i don’t realize is in reality how you are no longer really
    much more smartly-appreciated than you may be right now.

    You’re very intelligent. You understand thus considerably on the subject
    of this topic, made me in my view imagine it from numerous various angles.
    Its like men and women aren’t interested except it’s something to
    do with Girl gaga! Your individual stuffs excellent. Always care for
    it up!

  24. I’m not sure why but this web site is loading extremely slow for me.
    Is anyone else having this problem or is it a issue on my end?
    I’ll check back later on and see if the problem still exists.

  25. Howdy would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?

    I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m
    having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and
    Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most
    blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S Apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
