I was asked to help share Wael's fundraiser. Wael is a Palestinian doctor urgently raising money to rebuild his home and evacuate his sons from Gaza to Egypt so that they can complete their studies. He has only made €1,398 out of his €210,000 goal so far! Please share and donate, and if you can't donate, please still share!
From Wael's GFM:
HELP WAEL'S FAMILY TO REBUILD THEIR HOUSE & TO GET SAVE LIFE
Hello all donors, I am Mohammed Faris, I live in Belgium and I am here to help and support my childhood friend Dr. Wael Eldahdouh from Gaza. He is now living there a terrible and difficult life with his family, please help him secure his family. Below he wrote more information about himself:
Hi, I'm wael Eldahdouh, I'm a doctor from gaza, and I'm organising this campaign to rebuild my bombed house and to get my sons outside of gaza to complete their studying..
Before this war we was living a beautiful and save life but now we lack this safety life and have been living a life of displacement for six months once inside school and once other inside tent in hospital.
We are a family of eight members, four girls and two boys 24, 20, 18, 15, 11, and 10, half of whom are children.We are a close-knit, friendly family who loves life and education.
My daughter lost her job with the bombing of the company where she worked as an accountant, and my son Barakat and my daughter Menna cannot complete their university studies due to the war and the bombing of their university. The rest of my children lost their schools and their educational lives. We have literally lost everything, our previous life with all its details, the house, the car, and the dreams. Now we only think of survival.
We have lost a lot and we need your help to live again and return our home to the way it was beautiful. The entire city has been destroyed, institutions, hospitals, universities, schools, even water and electricity. It has become difficult for children to live in this life that lacks the least necessities. Now we live in very difficult and harsh conditions. We have been living in a small tent for about six months. Children get sick every week due to malnutrition, and they are psychologically destroyed by the war. They do not see any hope for a better tomorrow. But perhaps you are the hope for my children. Your donation and support will help them start over, away from this death. Please help us to get out my children to safety place.
The money will be used to pay for my children to travel to Egypt temporarily until the war ends, to pay for their studies in Egypt, and finally to rebuild our destroyed home..

Help MENNA Family From Gaza To Have A Secure Life
Hello, I am Menna Musa Muhammad. I am 22 years old. I live in Gaza City. I graduated from Al-Azhar University. I lost two of my brothers during the war after my mother was making lunch and we were sitting eating together, and suddenly our lives were turned upside down as they attacked the neighborhood in which we live,
and with the dust and flying glass surrounding every place, my brotheres went down to check on the rest of my family in our neighboring house, and then I lost them in front of our house. We were unable to save them. We call more time the ambulance so that someone would come to their rescue due to the bad situation and the danger of the place No body come. We waited for more than 12 hours inside the house while
my link gofundme https://www.gofundme.com/f/assist-my-family-in-getting-out-gaza-2024
they were outside bleeding and no one came and the situation continued until the next day and then we went and buried them after our relatives came and helped us carry them. We left our house and did not take anything from it. Our house is anything we left our memories in. We went to Rafah and we did not have clothes, food, or anything.
We put up a tent, which was given to us by people we did not know who helped us and we sat inside it. Here the suffering is indescribable. My sister is sick and needs treatment, and she needs medicines that are not available at the present time due to the lack of medicines, and my nephew has electricity.
The brain needs treatment, and my sister-in-law has a thalassemia patient and needs medications and treatments due to a blood transfusion, as her blood in the past was 6. She took many units and removed the spleen because it was causing blood to break down. This is a picture of my family at the university when I graduated.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My brother was a philanthropist who helped others and neighbors, helping them with bread and water, and even charging their phones. He lived on the first floor, where he had a beautiful house with new furniture and a new TV. He was afraid the TV would break, so he put it in another room so it wouldn't break.
He also loves trees and loves to water them. One day there was a cat who climbed a palm tree for a whole day and could not come down. He ventured to taste it, but could not, for when he tried to catch it, it ran to the right and sometimes to the left. When I came down, my cat lasted about 4 days.
Then I opened the window and found her coming down alone, even though I used to love my cat and eat her every day and she slept in my lap, but the day I lost my brothers, I found the cat next to my brother in front of me from the house. It was yellow and died with them as well. This is a video of when my brother tried to save the cat
youtube
This is a video after we left our home, after we lost my brothers and headed to Rafah
youtube
This is a picture of our house after it was destroyed
Tumblr media
On the second floor is our house, my father's house, who was with me. My mother, father, and my younger brother, whom I lost, along with my older brother, live in it. My mother loved birds.
On the day we left the house, my mother said: “Let's take the birds with us and not leave them alone, but they were not one, but 10. We could not take them because there were two birds in the cage.” This is what made my mother open the door for them and throw food on the floor so they could eat in the same house and we left them behind. Here is a video of the house from the inside after and befor
youtube
On the third floor, there is my brother with his wife and two daughters. He loves pigeons, and in the worst moments he considered pigeons like his children. Because of his intense love for pigeons, he sat crying because he could not provide food for the pigeons. What should he do? He went to the pigeons’ house and opened the door.
He found a cat coming to eat from the pigeons, which made him close the door. But he tore the ceiling so that it would fly from above instead of through the door for fear of being eaten by cats and left behind
This is a picture of my cat
In front of the house there was a place where we could sit and drink coffee. Every day he destroyed and destroyed the swing in front of the house. We lived a quiet life. We lost everything and headed to Rafah without water or food. The weight of each of us has become about half. This is a picture of the tent
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I want to go out with my family. I want to continue my life abroad and study my master’s degree and treat my nephew, my sister and my brother’s wife because they need treatment and it is not available due to the lack of medicines.
I want to leave Gaza City and go to Egypt, knowing that the cost of going to Egypt is per person, and each person needs about 5,000 thousand dollars, and they number about 15.
The number of children is 10, and the travel cost per person is $2,500. The number of adults is 5, and the travel cost for each person is 5,000 thousand dollars.
The amount will be paid for travel costs to leave Gaza. I have absolutely nothing: no home, no livelihood, no university. Even my university was completely destroyed:
Tumblr media
The surviving brother did his best to get me, my mother and my sister out of Gaza, but he is still stuck there with his wife and children amidst bombing, hunger and fear. My nieces, Alma and Dania, are very young. They need milk, diapers and clothes. The weather in Gaza is very cold, and also my brother’s children, who were lost in the war, we want to take them out to complete their treatment
I hope to complete my university studies, and I hope to go out to my family and treat my brother’s wife and their children so that we can live a decent life. I wish I were a famous girl ☺️ but war, famine, fear and sadness put us in a difficult psychological state.
I hope you will help me and donate to me, even a small amount, because this will make a difference and make me feel loved and cared for, because there are many wonderful people in this world. Only your help will protect me and my family. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for donating and reading my story. I hope to live a beautiful and normal life like everyone else. Thank you.
note. ▪️I want to explain to you that I chose Switzerland because there is no Palestine among the countries, and I have friends who help me collect donations.
▪️ To withdraw funds, I have a friend who studies in Egypt. He will help me withdraw donations and send them to me.
Thank you all ❤️

Where it all started [Part 1]
Chapter 1 
Sometimes links don’t appear on posts. if you can’t see the link to “Chapter 1”, my masterlist is pinned to the top of my blog, and you can find it there.
Summary: Slytherin’s parents have another argument, but at this point, no one’s surprised. After all, they’re her parents. It would be abnormal if they didn’t argue. However, this one’s a biggie. The fight ends with the slam of a door and her dad packing his bags into the car and getting ready to leave. Desperate for him to come back, Slytherin’s mom forces her to go to him with a message that will surely make him stay. Buckle up folks, for this is where it all began. 
Slytherin stood on the sidewalk as she watched her dad pack up his things into the van. 
She dug her fingernails into her arm, her heart stinging with ache as her dad turned around with a smile on his face, a failed attempt to reassure her that it was going to be ok. It was all gonna be ok. After all, this was normal, right? It’s not like it was unusual that her dad was leaving again to go back to Florida, where the homewrecker waited for him, her outstretched hands eagerly opened up to him and his credit card. 
However, this was the first time he left abruptly. A spike of sorrow stabbed at Slytherin’s heart as she thought back to the sound of her parents’ door abruptly opening; soon after, she could hear angry stomps that quickly descended down the steps of the staircase. 
She could almost hear the hiss in her ear as she stood in the archway of the living room, watching her dad leave in the far distance. “Tell him that Ravenclaw’s crying,” her mother spat, pushing her towards the front door. “Quickly, before he leaves!” 
Slytherin internally sighed. How typical. Instead of resolving their relationship issues by going to couples therapy, her mom decided to throw all those burdens onto her daughter, who had already grown tragically used to being used as her puppet. 
She decided not to argue against going after her dad and trying to guilt-trip him into staying home as her mom wanted. Otherwise, she would be lectured on how she’s selfish and wouldn’t do this small thing for her mom, how she’s basically ruining this family by letting her dad leave, how family is so fucking important and manipulating her dad into staying would be vital to their happiness as a whole, how family this and family that. 
You get the point. Slytherin certainly did. That’s why she was currently standing awkwardly behind her dad, staring at his back as he lifted boxes into his car. 
“Um, Raven…” She paused. Her throat felt dry and tight. Swallowing with difficulty, she tried again. “Ravenclaw’s crying.” 
It wasn’t the crying itself that mattered. That wasn’t the main reason why her mom rushed her out the door to deliver the message to her dad. It was simply the fact that it was Ravenclaw who was crying. Let’s just say that he and his dad had a complicated relationship. 
Things were never the same between them after Ravenclaw sent an angry message to him via text when he was in Florida a year ago. The contents of the message reeked of disdain for his constant infidelity. When his mom found out, she shoved the phone into Slytherin’s face in the dead of night and asked if she knew about this. The glaring light from the screen nearly blinded her. 
Slytherin read the text messages through squinted eyes and could make out a few curse words here and there. Though she was slightly disoriented from the sudden ambush of information, it was clear to her that her brother resented their dad for what he did.  
That made Ravenclaw’s anguish even more useful in their mom’s opinion. Seeing the tears streak down his face when he heard that his dad was leaving again, she had a glorious idea. Perhaps if her husband knew of their son’s sorrow, he would reconsider his abrupt departure. After all, it was Ravenclaw who was crying. 
If it were Hufflepuff, that would be understandable—she can get quite emotional sometimes. But it was Ravenclaw, who was usually guarded and distant. One might suggest that he was secretly broken inside. But that’s not the point, at least not in his mom’s opinion. The main thing she was concerned about was that she could use his misery to her advantage! Maybe if her husband knew of his sadness, he would feel guilty enough to stay behind. After all, if his son, who despised him, was upset over his departure, perhaps it wouldn’t be so bad to stay home and endure his wife’s temper for a little while longer. 
Slytherin’s words did produce somewhat of a reaction. Her dad didn’t turn around for a while, but when he did, his eyes were slightly red and puffy. It was evident that he was trying to hold back his tears. One might think that this means that he’ll stay. He seemed distraught over the news that his son was crying because of his leave. Surely, he’ll stay, right? 
It wasn’t enough. Nothing ever seems to be enough.
“I’ll be back soon, okay?” He hugged her briefly and gave a light squeeze as a sign of reassurance. As a silent message that it was going to be ok. Even though everything was most definitely not okay. A thousand hugs and gestures of reassurance wouldn’t change this. 
Slytherin didn’t react angrily to his refusal, the unspoken declaration of No, I will not go back home. In fact, it seemed as if she didn’t react at all. However, if one were paying close attention, they would notice the sparkle in her eyes dim. But maybe there wasn’t a sparkle to begin with. She had been enduring this shit for so long that she forgot what it was like to be normal, to feel like the white kid you see in commercials, the one who seemed to radiate mirth, a type of energy that said, I don’t have a care in the world because life is so fucking great and I can’t stop smiling. She didn’t even bother to smile, a common facial expression when one is in a difficult situation and tries to diffuse the somber atmosphere by slapping a facade on their face, the corners of their lips upturned to form a grimace that resembles some sort of a smile—a twisted kind of smile, that’s for sure. Why should she pretend that everything was okay when it wasn’t? Instead, she merely nodded in response. 
When her dad pulled away to pack the last box into the trunk, she took a deep breath to diminish the familiar sense of abandonment that flooded her senses, to clear the warning signs that flashed in her mind. He’s leaving! Your dad is leaving! He’s abandoning you again. You’re apparently not important enough for him to stay. 
She stared at the ground, only looking up when she heard the sound of a car door slamming shut. The resounding click was all it took for the waterfalls to finally pour from her eyes, for it was at this moment when she realized that this was actually happening. This was no dream—it was reality. Her sad, devastating reality. Tears blurred her vision as she watched the car drive away, leaving her in the dust. 
Slytherin gasped in erratic breaths between her broken sobs as her eyes hung onto the tiny speck that resembled her dad who was driving 
away, 
away, 
and a-w-a-y.
Through the jumble of thoughts that clashed in her head, one thing was clear. Her dad was her dad, but only sometimes. 
Tears streaking down her face, she tried to soothe her pain with the belief that he would be back soon. If only she had known that it would be a while before he returned. If only he hadn’t left. Perhaps things would’ve been different for her if he stayed, for this was where it started. 
This marked the beginning of it all.

Author’s note: HI! Were you surprised to see that I posted two fics in a row?? I hope you enjoyed this. Most of it was unfortunately based on what happened to me a year or two ago. I based Ravenclaw on my brother, who did actually cry when my dad was leaving after an argument, and yes, my wack mother did force me to run after my dad to tell him. One of the few differences is that I’m not a drug addict and I’m fine now so dont worry. 
Idk how I feel about this series, it is a lot darker from what I usually write. I know I’m gonna have to write more for creative writing class, so maybe i will continue it. I will try to think of how to turn these fics into something more positive, because this stuff is very heavy and depressing. however, that will be a little difficult because the plot itself is naturally drab. however, i will try to think of a happy ending for Faye/Slytherin. 
Shall we look at some wholesome pictures? 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
lmaoaoa i pasted this picture from the internet and tumblr glitched and pushed the pic all the way to the top. imagine seeing this dog at the beginning of the fic, that would be funny :’)

OK WAIT WTF NOW I THINK ITS AN ACTUAL DOG??? CAN SOMEONE HELP AND TELL ME IF ITS REAL OR NOT?!! at first, i thought it was real, but then i looked at the paws and it looked kinda fake and i was like this dog is too fluffy and wholesome to be real. BUT THEN I LOOKED AGAIN and i think the owners just put the pooh outfit over the dog?? what is going on with my brain.. but at the same time, its 2 am for me rn so maybe i should get some sleep BUT FIRST, LETS LOOK AT MORE DOGS <3 (lmaoaoa i feel like my friend would say “gosh ur such a hufflepuff” (menna im talking about u lmao omg hey gorl)) 
Tumblr media

Hey, Lizze, it's great to see you active again! I too find myself active in my time lady story after 3 long years, but I want to ask you for some suggestions on how to write my OC for Doctor Who series 6 onwards, without me plagiarizing, because it had too much plot bunnies for my liking, and I had an idea for a certain episode but I really don't think it's gonna make sense. I do want to continue my series to the current series that has just passed. Please help.
Hey! :) I’m really happy to be active again too, I missed everyone SO MUCH. 
Series 6 is definitely tricky. I feel like series 5, Moffat was still sort of riding the continuity of RTD’s era, and Series 6 is where he sort of went off on his own thing and, to me, it didn’t really make sense and just sort of felt a little more convoluted the longer it went on :/ So Series 6 is always tricky to me because you have to try and make sense of things that don’t always make sense to begin with, or things where the ‘making sense’ theme is starting to crack :/ One way I get through Series 6 is to sometimes have the characters comment on something that doesn’t make sense or internally think about how odd something is, or even bring up concerns of something that is clearly not going to work, or even to think about things as a way to explain why something happened the way it did. Like why the Doctor spent all this time going to find a little girl to save her but then suddenly decided to abandon her and go off on another trip? :/ I’m not sure if that’s very helpful regarding Series 6 though :(
Sometimes when plot bunnies come up in too great a number, I will try to write them down as general bullet points, then once I’m sure I’ve got them all, I’ll organize them by episode they would happen in or relate to, or episodes where it makes the most sense for that bunny to happen. Then I go through it to see if that sort of flow makes sense or if it ends up too jumbled. Often what happens is I may have two or three ways I want something to go and, because of that, another OC forms to give me the chance to use that direction for them. Sometimes plot bunnies seem like a jumble meant for one story but might actually be your mind’s way of saying another OC wants a chance to have a go at it ;) Like, I had A LOT of plot bunnies for Series 4 of DW when I first began posting, but with the way Proffy was, it was hard to get some of those bunnies to fit. Like I wanted a TL to pull that lever in Pompeii without prompting, which fit the Proffy of Series 4. But I also wanted a TL who would would dress up in a toga in Pompeii and get the Doctor flustered, which didn’t fit Proffy...but did fit Evy. I would say to look at the bunnies and see which work together in a cluster and which might not, and the ones that don’t might be an OC waiting to happen ;)
What I do when there’s an episode I really want to go a certain way, but it feels like it would be too out of the blue or not make sense, is I try to lay the ground work as far ahead as I can. Drop little clues in earlier chapters, build something up so that when that episode comes around, it’s feasible for it to go the way you want it to. One example, using a non-DW story to shake things up, I wanted Menna to be related to someone in her story. But I didn’t want it to be just a surprise reveal, so I built it up and laid clues throughout the story so that when the reveal happened, it made sense. Having Rose reappear in Evy’s series, but having the Doctor not react to her the way he did in the show might not make sense, unless someone has read him falling in love with Evy through the course of the story, and then the Linking just reaffirmed it, sort of thing. Having River Song be the daughter of an OC and not Amy might not make sense, but when clues are given of her different reactions to the Time Lords and a different explanation behind her conception comes up, it makes sense. I think as long as clues are there and used to lay the ground work, things can be reasonably explained when twists come about. If it’s something involving an OC changing something, lay the groundwork in the OC’s personality, in their fears and drives, that way, when the change comes up, it makes sense because the OC wouldn’t react in any other way than what they do, it would be expected of the OC to do what they do because it’s who they are.
I hope that helped, even a tiny bit :)

I have to thank Menna for correcting my English, check out her blog!
happy johnlock to you all ^.^
I arrived at 221B and found them curled up together, with Rosie sleeping on Sherlock’s chest and him either in his mind palace or in his dreams. I longed with tenderness and love for my friend, but it was finally free of anger and shame. The agony I’d suffered had shaped me and it was now easier to accept my sentiments and the pain they caused: I knew I’d never be able to be in a relationship with him, but our friendship was beautiful enough. While these thoughts ran in my mind, I had been staring at him for quite long, lost in the lines of his neck and in the shades of his curls. Suddenly his lips moved: “What are you thinking of?” His deep voice sent chills down my spine, and my throat hurt at the thought of having to answer. “I was – I – nothing important, really.” Great impression of an idiot, John. Sherlock sat and held Rosie, still sleeping in his arms. “John, if you have to tell me something, please do.” I wasn’t ready for this conversation. Damn this beautiful man and how unpredictable he is. “Why do you think I’d want to tell you something?” My voice had hardened. “You’ve been staring at me for almost tenminutes now. That suggests I’m the object of your thoughts.” “Why did you ask in the first place if you could deduce it?!” At that exclamation Rosie started crying and I witnessed something I’ll never forget: Sherlock softened enough for me to struggle at recognizing him. He spoke quietly to her:  “It’s al right. Hush now, sleep now.” She was already calm when he told her “I love you.” He left me and took her upstairs, I considered running away but I decided on making tea instead. To tell him or not to tell him, that was the problem. Sherlock had came back and sat in his armchair, waiting. “Do you think I should tell you?” “I wouldn’t have asked otherwise.” I realized I was having difficulties breathing, “I’m not sure I can.” “That’s what I thought. But I get it, you don’t want me to be a father-like figure for your daughter. Don’t worry, I’ll back up.” “What?!” I couldn’t help feeling stupid after giving away the perfect cover with that word. He glanced at me, with a mixture of relief and surprise, “What was it then?” “Nothing. I was thinking about Mary.” Sherlock raised an eyebrow: “You’re lying.” “I’m – why? Oh fuck it.” Sherlock made his best drama queen face and got up. “There’s nothing important that I keep from you.” I got up as well. “I didn’t know anything about your childhood!” I shouted. “Neither did I, apparently!” There was a brief silence, and we started giggling simultaneously. “I can’t even be mad at you for more than two minutes.” “I don’t think two minutes passed.” He smiled at me, “Dinner?” “Starving.” We ordered chinese and I was thankful when we dropped the subject. He started talking about an old case, I was fascinated. In the mid of the story I interrupted him. “But there’s a detail wich isn’t quiet clear to me: why would the man want him to write a document if the all company was fake?” “That’s exaclty what I thought when the client told me! Brilliant observation! You see..” His next words faded, he had said “Brilliant.”, he had smiled so cheerfully… I felt like fainting, this situation was getting out of hand. Time passed quickly, “I should go home now.” “But Rosie’s sleeping. You could stay in my room, I’ve got work to do anyway.” I thought for a moment that he meant sleeping together, and my heart had missed a beat. “But Sherlock I’m taking advantage of you. You already kept Rosie today and I made you waste at least four hours now!” “Don’t be stupid, the hours I spend with you are never wasted. And I was happy being with Rosie as well.” I felt his eyes through me, looking at me so intensely. “Sherlock, do you really tell me everything?” He moved so that we weren’t so near on the sofa, “I said everything important.” “Tell me something unimportant, Sherlock Holmes.” I challenged him. “I delete whatever is.” He looked very uncomfortable, but I kept pushing him. “There has to be an exception, otherwise I‘d know everything about you, following your logic.” “Yes, you’re right. I cannot delete my sentiments.” I felt my chest aching, after all he had done he still felt like his sentiments didn’t matter. I hugged him tight, suddenly uncaring of what he could think about me after an action like that. “Sherlock, for christ sake, they are part of you, and you matter so much you can’t even imagine.” He hesitantely put his hands on my shoulder and neck. “Are they important to you?” He said, caressing my arm lightly. “Of course they are. You are.” I was letting my fingers wander in his curls, but i wouldn’t let my words be spoken, I could feel the “I love you.” carefully abort from my lips. We were so close in that moment that I didn’t notice the silence, I sensed how fragile we both were to each other and how beautiful that was. “Than I ought to tell you: I love you, John.”

Modern Babylonian Empire
Modern Babylonian Empire
Modern Babylonian Empire The Neo-Babylonian Empire was founded by the Nebulazar-Chaldean Empire in 627 BC and continued until 539 BC. They were liberated from the Assyrians after Nebulazar took control of the province of Babylon, which was under the rule of the Assyrians. Throughout the entire province of Babylon and the southern regions of Babylon, he was able to unite the Chaldean tribes, but the Assyrians continued to harass the Chaldeans and were intent on overthrowing the Tubulasir. Reyn from toppling the rule Alcaldaan this time as they did in the past several times, enabling Nabopolassar and in cooperation with the Medes of dropping the city of Nineveh, the capital of the Assyrians in 612 BC and the foundations of a great empire and marked the Chaldean and the arts and to construction science empire. The rulers of Babylon restored ancient Mesopotamian heritage, reviving the Sumerian - Akkadian heritage. Although Aramaic became the colloquial language of the Babylonians, the Akkadian language was the official language in official documents and circles. History Since 1894 BC. To the year 539 BC. In the city of Babylon, eleven dynasties of the kingdoms, the strongest and most famous are the first and last, the greatest of the first dynasty is Hammurabi Amorite (1792-1750 BC), and the second dynasty of Babylon at the head of the Arabian Gulf, which is called the dynasty sea towers or dynasty princes The Gulf (1740–1500 BC), and then the third dynasty, the dynasty of the Kachites (1595–1157 BC), the fourth dynasty (1156–1025 BC), and its eighth king was Adad Abal Adan Aramaic (1067– 1046 BC), then weak and dispersed strains of the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth with the agreement and cooperation of the Babylonians with the Arameans (1024--732 BC), and during this period The Aramean tribes took control of most of the Euphrates valley south of Babylon, and then the Assyrians took control of the Ninth Dynasty of Babylon. The establishment of the tenth Babylonian dynasty (731--711 BC) and its most famous kings, Murdoch Baladan Aramaic (721--711 BC), leader of the Chaldean Emirate of Beth-Yaqini, Kuwait, the king of Babylon mentioned in the book (Isaiah 1:39), and travel ( 2 Kings 20:12) This king played a prominent role in supporting the Babylonians against the Assyrians. The materialists Kijasser and crawl on the areas of Assyria starting in the year 626 BC. Nineveh was the capital of the Assyrian state in 612 BC. M. The establishment of the eleventh Babylonian state or dynasty, which was considered a victory for Aramaic This is the last Babylonian dynasty best known for its King Nebuchadnezzar and was overthrown by Cyrus the Persian in 539 BC. This breed is called the second, last or modern Babylonian state or the 11th Babylonian dynasty The Chaldean state, named after its founder Nabu Balasar, is a sheikh of the Aramaic Kulda tribe, as was the last Assyrian Syriac Empire (744--612 BC), named after King Sargon, the most famous of which is the Chaldean. The Chaldean state lasted only seventy-three years (612--539 BC), so all historians and specialists call the dynasties established in Babylon before the establishment of the Chaldean state in 612 BC. By the Babylonian dynasties or states, not the Chaldeans, the Chaldean state ruled six kings: Nabu Blaser (612--605 BC), Nebuchadnezzar (604--562 BC), Oil Murdoch (561--560 BC), Nergal of Char Oser (559--556 BC), Bashi Murdoch (556 BC), and Nebonides (555--539 BC). The meaning of Chaldean and Chaldean is Chaldean: astronomer, astrologer, sorcerer, wizard Therefore, the Chaldeans Aramaic tribe specialized in astrology and magic, and the book of Daniel illustrates this to the extent that Nebuchadnezzar made Daniel the prophet astrologer (Da 5:11), and Ibn Abri says that the name of Nebuchadnezzar means the protector of God's borders is Syriac meaning Mercury uttered, and in the dictionary of Hassan Ben Bahloul means "the image of Mercury". Historians, researchers and professors of history agree that the Chaldeans (the Nebuchadnezzar family) are Arameans, and because this is not disputed by two historians. Archbishop Adi Cher Chaldean Assyrian, James Breasted, Adon Pfenn, Israel and Wolfson, Teacher Lomon the French, Bishop Eugene Menna Chaldean, Rafael Babu Isaac, Father Albert Abona, Philip Hatti, Christostom Papadopoulos, a. Dupont Sommer, Carl Brockelmann, George Row, d. Antoine Motcart, d. Ramadan Abdo Ali, Taha Baqer, d. Abdulaziz Saleh, d. Helmy Mahrous, Robins Duval, d. Najib Mikhail, Ibrahim Al-Samarrai, Father Anastas Al-Karmali, Dr. Afif Bhansi, Ahmed Sousa, Fawzi Rashid, Ahmed Amin Selim, Hamed Abdel Kader, d. Shahat Zaghloul, d. Murad Kamel, d. Ali Abu Assaf, and many others. The vast majority of these historians argue that Nabo Blaser Abu Nebuchadnezzar is the leader of the Aramaic tribe of Caledet, so researchers consider them to have close ties, relatives, a tribe, one lash and a single source.There are some writers and historians when they speak of the Chaldean state, which they refer to as the state formula. Chaldean Aramaic . I believe that the Nebuchadnezzar family descended from the Aramean Beth Yakini tribe, whose state was established between Nasiriyah and Basra in southern Iraq (now Tal al-Lahm), and the most famous of its kings, Murdoch Baladan Aramaic (721–711 BC). Archaeologists and history say that the original Chaldean habitat is the shores of the Gulf in southern Iraq, and some of the researchers, such as Philip Dogorty and others that the Chaldeans came out of the Arabian Peninsula and rushed from this region and entered Iraq during the first millennium BC, taking the way of the coast of the Arabian Sea and then the Gulf Father Anastas Al-Karmali shares this view, and researcher Jawad Ali of Strabo tells us that the city of Gerrha, which is located at Al-Ahsa (currently Al-Ahsa) on the Gulf coast in Saudi Arabia, is home to the Chaldeans, where they enjoyed good relations. With Babylon. There is no connection between the name of the Chaldean state founded by the Aramaic tribe leader Nabu Blaser and his son, Nebuchadnezzar, and the Ur name of the Chaldeans, which appeared in the Old Testament only four times to denote the southern Mesopotamia region from which Abraham the prophets came out. The Bible teachers gave the name of the Chaldeans to the language they are currently speaking. This is one of the Aramaic dialects that used to be the language of the country in the Babylonian Empire. Professor Nahum Sarna, professor of biblical studies and head of Hebrew translation at Brandeis University in Boston, states: "It is wrong to tell Ur Chaldeans, because Ur was basically a Sumerian city." The truth is that Greece, as a result of their great admiration for the last Babylonian state (Chaldean Aramaic) in which Babylon reached its peak after an eleven century recession (from the era of Hammurabi), and the events of the Chaldean state much in the Bible because of the presence of the Jews and the prophets of them wrote their news and a section From the books of the Chaldean state, when Greece translated the Bible in 280 BC in the days of King Ptolemy II Philadelphus from Hebrew in which the books of the Old Testament were written into Greek called the Septuagint, For books written centuries before the Chaldean state, they translated it into Chaldea or Chaldean, and called Babylon the country of the Chaldeans, but the Chaldeans themselves were not native to Babylon, and scholars did not find the name of Chaldea or Chaldeans until the ninth century BC and in the blogs of the Assyrian king Ashur Nasser Pal II (883--859 BC), where this name was given to a tribe that lived in the local bush near the Arabian Gulf . The German scholar Hock Winkler (1863–1913) suggests that it was Nebuchadnezzar and his powerful family that gave the Chaldeans a high place in Babylon and overwhelmed other ancient names. Even the historians of Greece and the Romans did not accuse other rulers of Babylon, calling them Chaldeans. They gave the name of the Chaldeans and the names of the other inhabitants of Babylon. The word Al-Kassadani was later used by some as little as Ibn Khaldun, who used it more than once in his history, and the son of Al-Kassadani's brutality (914 AD), who states that he translated one of the books of Al-Kassadani written in the second century BC into Arabic (the book of Nabataean agriculture). The Kassadin were the ancient Syriac language. The word Kassadon is the name of the southern region of Mesopotamia (Iraq) called Kesadia (Kedaya), and the people of the region are called Cassidians or Cassion after Cassid ibn Nahor of his wife Malika, daughter of Haran, in Genesis 22:22. (Joshua 24: 2) And Nahor is the brother of Abraham the son of Tarah, that is, Abraham is the uncle of a lion. Therefore, the word Ur of the Chaldeans in the Old Testament of the Bible in Hebrew, which is written Ur is the same Chaldean There is no difference Ur Ur Chaldeans, note the pronunciation column in the Strong Dictionary of the Bible in the following table how to pronounce the word (Ur Chaldeans) word (Ur Cassidians) in Hebrew. Genesis 11–28: Haran died before Terah his father in the land of his birth in Ur Chaldeans, וַיָּ֣מָת הָרָ֔ן עַל־פְּנֵ֖י תֶּ֣רַח אָבִ֑יו בְּאֶ֥רֶץ מֹולַדְתֹּ֖ו בְּא֥וּר כַּשְׂדִּֽים. Note Arabic translation Audio translation Pronounced No. Strong Hebrew origin - 'âb awb H1 אב -' ûr oor H218 אוּר - 'erets eh'-rets H776 ארץ - hârân haw-rawn' H2039 הרן - kaώdîy kaώdîymâh {kas-dee '} kas-dee'כּשׂדּ ייה 37יה kaώdîy kaώdîymâh) {kas-dee '} kas-dee'-maw (Occasionally shown as the second form with enclitic; meaning towards the Kasdites); patronymic from H3777 (only in the plural); a {Kasdite} or descendant of Kesed; by implication a Chaldaean (as if so descended); also an astrologer (as if proverbial of that people): into {Chaldea}) patronymicallyn. from H3777 (only in the plural); a Kasdite; or descendant of Kesed; by implication a Chaldan (as if so descended) also an astrologer (as if proverbial of that people): {Chaldeans} {Chaldees} inhabitants of Chaldea. This applies to the three remaining verses of Genesis (15: 9 as well as 11–31) and Nehemiah (9: 7). (See same dictionary.) It is known that Abraham, his brothers, and his sons according to the Bible were Arameans according to their distant uncle Aram ibn Sam. . According to Deuteronomy 26: 5, Abraham was Aramaic: "Aramaic was lost, and my father was descended into Egypt, and he went down there in a few places, and there was a great, great and great nation." And Abraham recommended that his son Isaac marry a daughter of Aramaic from his tribe: My tribe goes and takes the wife of my son Isaac (Genesis 24: 4), "and Isaac married Rebekah the daughter of Bethuel the Aramaic," and Isaac was forty years old when he took for himself the wife of Rebekah the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean sister of Laban the Aramaic from Padan Aram (Gen 25:20). And Bethuel is the brother of Cassid the son of Nahor (Gen. 22: 21-23), that is, Bethuel is also the nephew of Abraham. Aramaic: "And Isaac left Jacob, and went to Padan Aram to Laban the son of Bethuel Aramaic brother Rebekah mother of Jacob and Esau (Gen 28: 5)." As for Nahor Abu Kased, he is: Nahor, the brother of Ibrahim ibn Tarah, married to Malika, daughter of Haran in Ur, and then resided in the city of Nahor (Haran) in Aram Al-Nahrain (Haran), the city to which Abraham sent his servant to bring the wife of his son Isaac. Nahor of the queen of eight sons are, Awza, Boza, Kemuel, Hazo, Vladash, Yadlav, Bethuel, and these eight became later the ancestors of the Aramean tribes . According to Father Paul Feghali: Nahor, the brother of Abraham and Abu Kassad, was made by his very women for twelve tribes or settlements of Aramaic, eight of which are descended from his wife Melaka and four of his company, Raouma.In the later cuneiform texts we find the name of Nahor as the name of a person (Nahiri, Nahor) and place name Nahur, Tel Nhiri), a city in the Haran region of northern Mesopotamia on the right bank of the Khabur River, took on significance in the 2nd millennium BC. They played an important role in the correspondence of the Kingdom of Mary in th It was the capital of an Assyrian province, and in the 13th century BC it was attacked and destroyed by the Arameans. A city named Tel Nhiri was born in the 7th century. . That is why the region of the Cassidians in southern Mesopotamia is called in the Christian sources (Beth Aramay), the house of the Arameans. . Robins Duval (1829–1911) asserts that the Arameans were the majority of Mesopotamia, Babylon, Erbil, Kirkuk, Urmia, and Ahwaz . Chaldean Bishop Suleiman al-Sayegh states that some investigators have argued that the name of the Arameans was Chaldean and Assyrian. . According to Archbishop Eugene Menna Chaldean: All the ancient tribes in the vast vast countries limited to the Persians in the east and the Mediterranean in the west and the countries of Armenians and Greece in Asia Minor in the north and the borders of the Arabian Peninsula in the south were known all Bani Aram or Arameans, yes some of these tribes were called The names of the people of Babylon and the neighboring Chaldeans, the name of the inhabitants of the kingdom of Assyria, the Assyrians, and the name of the people of Syria by the Edomites. As we have seen, the Chaldeans are an Aramaic tribe, and all historians support it. . Therefore, the language of the Chaldean Aramaic people was Aramaic (Syriac), and the ancient Akkadian language with the cuneiform alphabet had diminished and became almost dead and was limited to a few people, especially the army and the ruling class, who used it as a secret military language at times. The Chaldean victory and the people of the Chaldean state spoke Aramaic, “and the Chaldeans spoke to King Nebuchadnezzar in Aramaic” (Daniel 2: 4). It is noteworthy that when the Bible mentioned the Aramaic language spoken by the Chaldean people with King Nebuchadnezzar, it did not mention another language with it, that is, it did not say that the people spoke the king in Aramaic and not in Chaldean, Hebrew, Akkadian or others, as in verse 2: 18:26 When the Jews asked Rabshake to speak to them in Aramaic and not in Hebrew, the Hebrews said, "Eliakim the son of Hilkiah and Shebna and Joach told Rabshakeh, speak to your servants in Aramaic, because we understand him, and we have not spoken to the Jews." Times, this is proof that the ancient Akkadian language Of which it had decayed almost died and was not originally known days of the Chaldean name of the State. Another undeniable evidence that the Chaldean people spoke Aramaic is that the thousands of Jews who were exiled by Nebuchadnezzar when they returned to Jerusalem after the exile spoke Aramaic and not the other. How did all these Jews learn Aramaic if not the language? President traded among the people? But the Jews learned it so fluently that they left their old language and Aramaic (Syriac) became their main language in which they wrote the Targum, and when the exiled Jews wanted to rebuild the temple, the Persian king Artaxerxes (465–424 BC) prevented them from doing so, and the staff of Artaxerxes wrote In Jerusalem, a letter is written in Aramaic: "Bashlam, Mithridath, Tabeel, and all their companions wrote to Artaxerxes, king of Persia. Therefore, as mentioned above, the Aramaic tribe of Kalda and as a result of its fame and strength emerged its own name (Chaldean) at the expense of its ethnic name Aramaic, and this is more than normal in history, especially with the Aramean tribes, where we find that most of the Aramaic kingdoms that originated, including those Southern Mesopotamia was named after its tribes such as, Vkodo, Beth Yakini, Kumbolo, Beth Shilani, and others as will come.This also applies to the first Babylonian state whose name was associated with Hammurabi for his fame, where in some sources are the state of Hammurabi and the capital of Hammurabi The sources for the fame of Hammurabi prepared by the founder of the city of Ba Indeed, despite the existence of the city of Babylon before him, as well as the recent Assyrian Syriac Dynasty, which is contained in many historical sources in the name of the Sergeant Empire, although it is Assyrian and others. As to the letter of St. Peter, in which he said that a woman sends a greeting to the believers from Babylon, “The chosen ones in Babylon shall be greeted with you and Mark my son (1 Peter 5:13).” Babylon is this village or locality in Samaria, inhabited by the people. Babylon, who was brought by the Assyrian king Sargon II (721--705 BC) with other peoples from Babylon and others, and dwelt in the cities of Samaria, the place of the Jews who carried them to Assyria, and the city of Kuth was one of the famous cities in Babylon was ancient and the people of Kuth The most prominent of these were the inhabitants of Samaria, until the Samaritans were called in the name of the Kotites for a long time Note that the Jews returning from Babylon after captivity also formed great power and formed compounds and cultural centers in the name of Babylon, even that the historian Josephus (37–100 AD) issued a special copy of his historical studies for them, and there is another view is that the letter was written from Rome, which was described as Babylon was evil, adultery, debauchery, and sin, and these are mentioned in the book of 2 Kings (17: 24--30), who says: "The king of Assyria came with some people from Babylon, Coth, Awa, Hama, and Safaruaim, and dwelt in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel. There they did not fear the Lord, and the Lord sent them sevenths, and they killed them As the Assyrians, saying, The nations whom I have exiled and dwelt in the cities of Samaria do not know the judgment of the God of the earth, and he sent them sevenths, because they do not know them, because they do not know the judgment of the God of the earth. And one of the priests who had carried them out of Samaria came and dwelt in Bethel, and taught them how to fear the LORD.And every nation did its gods, and put them in the high places which the Samaritans had made every nation in their cities where they dwelt. (2 Kings 17: 24--30). As a result of the name of St. Mark in this letter with the First Lady, and the relationship of Mark to the Egyptian home because he came to Egypt in about 62 AD, and that the letter was written during the persecution of Nero (54-68 AD) II, and the relationship of St. Peter to Mark, where he was his disciple and spiritual son third, The Alexandrians concluded that St. Peter had come to visit Mark in Egypt, and that the letter was written in a village founded by the refugees from Babylon near Cairo on behalf of Babylon, and at the time of writing the letter was a Roman military camp whose effects are still existing today, and that the lady may be the wife of St. Peter because she was Mark's father's cousin, and Clement of Alexandria says it was Ka A well-known figure in the early church, St. Peter took her with him on his missionary journeys (1 Corinthians 9: 5), and she was martyred before Peter's eyes where he encouraged her by saying, "Remember the Lord."

Hey, a question from an aspiring Time Lady author over here - I really love your work. How are you able to write the Time Lady and the Doctor's relationship without it coming across as replacing an existing relationship (i.e. The Doctor and River) or without making the original love interest come across as being out of character?
Hello! :) What I try to do is, if it’s replacing an existing relationship, to try and build it up where it sort of makes more sense that the character is with the OC, or to build a world around the OC where it was a possible relationship that predates the canon relationship. For instance, with the Judge, she was already married to the Doctor long before River was ever born, and, in that universe, it would be impossible for River to have been his wife with his ‘wife’ still alive. In that universe, the relationship couldn’t have happened. I try to construct a world where the OC’s relationship is normal for happening when the canon relationship doesn’t. In a case like River’s, it also depends on when the OC is introduced in regards to River’s timeline. A lot of OCs were introduced before Demon’s Run, so River would have already known they were with the Doctor later in her adventures. The Judge was introduced after that so River had to sort of back away due to the Judge being his wife.
For being more ‘logical’ as a relationship, I try to set it up where it shows how the two characters balance each other or may offer each other something the original relationship doesn’t. Like with Aragorn and Menna, it’ll slowly be built up around an examination of what Aragorn would be like with a human love involved in his quest as opposed to an elf off to the side. Or with Spock and Cora, looking at how they are two ends of a spectrum, logic vs. emotion, but they balance each other because she can feel what he can’t express and he can be himself without needing to be human or Vulcan. Or with Claire and Sheldon, Amy might have been too similar to him to really challenge him effectively, but Claire does for Sheldon what Penny and Leonard do for each other and challenges him. I try to show how, maybe, the OC might be a tiny bit more of a better fit in how they offer change to a character.
I also try to come up with a different relationship that the person could have with the Doctor so it’s not completely erased. Like making River the Doctor’s goddaughter or daughter or arch enemy. It’s still A relationship, just not the same one as the show. It doesn’t always work, but I try to do it :) Sometimes I might make that relationship veer to a different person or give that person a new relationship with someone related to the Doctor. Like River being J’s best friend, the Doctor’s son. Or, in my Lyssa story, instead of Emma and Hook, Emma would be with Baelfire. Still a relationship, but attached to someone else. 
When it comes to the OOC for a character, I try my best to build a world where that behavior or personality makes sense. Sometimes people will argue that ‘That’s not how the character would act!’ but I’ve found that a lot of those responses are when people base it solely on the TV canon and not the world/situation that’s been created in the STORY. Like with River in Angel’s story, how she’s so vicious to Angel and manipulative and not the way she is in the show. BUT, in that story, River has lived a different life and experienced different things that CHANGED her into who she was in the story. If you can build a world where someone has experienced different things in their past, they would always be a different person in the future, because our experiences are what make us who we are. As long as any changes fit with the character as they would be IN the STORY, I think it’s difficult to make a character OOC. Compared to the show, yes, they might be out of character, but within the world you’ve created, if their personalities match what their lives have been like, then it makes sense. Like…in my AU Academic Series. I chose to have 9 regenerate into a different 10 because his experiences were different. He didn’t have JUST Rose around to regenerate into DT’s 10, he had the Professor. That made for different perspectives, different actions, different reactions, which made him into a different 10. If a character has the exact same history and experiences in a story as in a show and is acting super different, then I’d feel it was OOC, but if the story is different than the show, the character would be different too ;)
Hope that helps :)

Kenny Dalglish celebrates Liverpool’s victory over Bruges in the 1978 European Cup final when he scored the winning goal – he also won the competition in 1981 and 1984
Liverpool and Scotland legend Kenny Dalglish has been knighted in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list.
The 67-year-old, who won the European Cup three times while playing for the Reds and later managed the club, said he was “humbled but gratified”.
He was also recognised for supporting Hillsborough victims and his charity work with the Marina Dalglish Appeal.
“I thought it was a tax bill,” Dalglish told BBC Radio Merseyside. “For the family, it’s a huge honour.”
Dalglish, who started his career at Celtic, is Scotland’s most-capped player, having made 102 appearances for his country.
He said: “It won’t make any difference to me, I’ll just maybe need to change my passport!
“But just because we’re a wee bit embarrassed about it doesn’t underestimate how pleased and proud we are to have received it.
“I hope everyone who came into our lives enjoys it as well.”
Dalglish is the only sporting figure knighted in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list.

In his first season at Anfield he scored the only goal in the 1978 European Cup final, and also lifted the trophy in 1981 and 1984.
