{"text": "Hey there!This is Patrick, Shaun's wonderful son. I'm here to tell you a story about how the Paddock family almost got arrested. The Paddocks had planned a vacation to New Orleans, to visit family. Charlie, the father and husband, decided it would be a wonderful adventure to take the Amtrak train. The train ride from Spartanburg to New Orleans was an amazing sixteen hours. Yucky. I'll get to the train ride later. Right now I'm going to tell you about what happened as we were waiting for the train.\nCharlie was told by an employee that at three in the morning, when we arrived at the train station, the waiting room would be open. Upon arriving at the train station, at three in the flippin' morning, we found that the waiting room had vanished. So I, being the adventurous one, decided to just start opening doors until i found it. All doors were locked, except for one. I opened it, looked inside, and found an office. I closed the door, and we went to sit on the benches. Ten minutes later, we heard: WEEOO WEEOO WEEOO! BURGLARY! BURGLARY! STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND LEAVE IMMEDIATELY! We were like, what the...? Ten minutes later, four cop cars come speeding into the train station, looking for the robber. We explained what happened, and everything was okay. For the remainder of our wait for the train, we sat and talked to the nice policemen. Here are some pictures of the event.\nHere's the whole Paddock gang at the train station.\nThe sign at the train station.\nThe courageous police, risking their lives to stop the Paddock gang.\nThe kids with one of the nice policemen.\nThe train is finally here!\nWell that's it for today. You'll hear about the next part of our journey in our next post. Thanks for stopping by! :]\nJesse James, eat your rotten heart out!!\nPosted by: Anna Paddock \| June 25, 2009 at 09:26 AM"}

{"text": "This could be called ”Putin and the OPK.” The last five pages — more than 40 percent — of the Prime Minister’s election manifesto are about Russia’s defense sector. It’s turgid and hard to digest.\nPutin’s website has a translation of the entire article.\nThe tone and language at the end of the article differ from the rest. Since not much has been accomplished in the OPK, Putin speaks in prescriptions, exhortations, platitudes, and imperatives. Everything is ”should” and “must.” The text is rambling and somewhat unfocused.\nPutin gives many non-specific mentions of:\n- “forming S&T capabilities”\n- “developing critical technologies for producing competitive products”\n- “reequipping the RDT&E infrastructure”\n- “investing in training specialists”\n- “placing the Gosoboronzakaz for three-five, even seven years”\n- “a single organ for controlling ‘defense’ contracts”\n- “fair and sufficient prices”\n- “promoting competition in state purchases”\n- “driving forces of innovation growth”\n- “exchanging S&T information among those who can use it”\n- “streamlining manufacturing processes”\n- “increasing the prestige of defense industry occupations”\nShibboleths without concrete, prioritized, and achievable objectives won’t help the OPK after the election.\nLet’s look for more coherent buried messages.\nPutin says up front:\n“. . . we also have to talk plainly about [the OPK's] accumulated problems. It’s a fact that domestic defense centers and enterprises have missed several modernization cycles in the last 30 years.”\n“We must fully overcome this lag in the next decade.”\nThe once-and-future President takes pains to stress that Russia’s OPK and scientific base, not those of other countries, will rearm the country’s forces. While military-technical cooperation with partners is fine, Putin says Russia can’t depend on foreign arms or abandon self-reliance. To the contrary, it needs to increase and support its own military-technological and scientific independence.\nHe writes:\n“I am convinced that no amount of ‘pin-point’ purchases of military and scientific equipment can replace the production of our own weapons; these purchases can only serve as a source of technology and knowledge.”\nStill, he warns:\n“To increase the country’s defense capability in reality, we need the most modern, best equipment in the world, and not ‘absorbed’ billions and trillions. It’s unacceptable for the Army to become a market for pawning off obsolete types of armaments, technologies, and RDT&E paid for at government expense.”\nSo Putin steers a path between those who say Russia can only rely on domestic arms producers, and those who say Russia’s defense sector is too decrepit and corrupt to supply the Armed Forces, so the military has to shop abroad. But he definitely leans more toward the former view.\nThe once-and-future President sets a high bar for the OPK, probably ridiculously high considering how neglected the defense sector has been for 20 years:\n“The activities of defense industry enterprises should concentrate on the mass production of high-quality weapons with the highest performance characteristics to meet both current and projected defense challenges. Moreover, it’s only the latest weapons and military equipment that will enable Russia to strengthen and expand its foothold in the world arms markets, where the winner is the one who can offer the most advanced designs.”\n“Reacting to present threats and challenges alone means being doomed to the role of someone who is always playing catch-up. We must do our best to gain a technological and organizational edge over any potential adversary. Such a stringent requirement should become the key criterion for us as we set targets for the defense industry.”\n“The defense industry is in no position to calmly try to catch up with the latest developments. We must facilitate breakthroughs and become leading innovators and manufacturers.”\nSo again, however realistic this goal may or may not be, Putin places a priority on Russia’s ability to export weapons and earn dollars.\nHe is sure rebuilding defense industry won’t be a back-breaking, Soviet-type burden on the country. Still, he cautions:\n“We must not repeat our past mistakes here. The huge resources invested in the renewal of the defense industry and in the rearmament program must facilitate the modernization of the entire Russian economy.”\nAnother high bar. A civilian economy of free, competitive, and self-sustaining industries can take good advantage of defense sector technology spin-offs. It’s less clear how defense industry investments can help lagging sectors of Russia’s civilian economy.\nPutin ominously warns corruption in the national security sphere is tantamount to state treason. It’ll be interesting to see how the OPK reacts, and if or how he effects this declaration.\nDespite years of state-controlled integration, the PM somewhat oddly says defense industry should be open to larger numbers of private enterprises and contractors.\nAnd he opines that OPK pay should be equivalent to new higher pay in the Armed Forces. This is probably true but it’s another costly promise.\nHe concludes the entire article saying Russia cannot fall behind and become vulnerable even if it costs a lot. But the goal, he claims, is an army and defense industry that strengthens rather than exhausts the national economy.\nPutin is many days late and many rubles short in fixing the OPK’s problems. They should have been addressed before the current state armaments program (GPV) was launched. The GPV cart was placed before the OPK horse for political reasons.\nIt’ll be interesting to see if this article serves as any kind of blueprint for the years that Putin serves, once again, as Russia’s chief executive.\nIt’s also interesting to see Putin return to the weakness theme. And how avoiding real or perceived weakness is such a powerful motivation for him:\n“. . . we should not tempt anyone by allowing ourselves to be weak.”\nTo reiterate, Putin says what needs defending are Russia’s natural resources.\nOne’s reminded of his address the day after Beslan more than seven years ago. He said:\n“We showed weakness.”\n“And the weak get beaten.”\n“Some want to rip ‘juicy’ pieces off us, others to help them.”\nIt’s basically what Stalin concluded about industrialization 81 years ago almost to the day:\n“To slacken the tempo would mean falling behind. And those who fall behind get beaten.”\n“One feature of the history of old Russia was the continual beatings she suffered because of her backwardness.”\n“They beat her because it was profitable and could be done with impunity.”\n“They beat her, saying: ‘You are abundant,’ so one can enrich oneself at your expense.”\nWhat Putin says is not so different."}
{"text": "Club News\nCMMC Auxiliary\nThe first annual meeting of the CMMC Auxiliary was called to order by President Lisa Householder in the hospital conference room on Sept. 12. After the pledge to our country’s flag, Janelle Wichman led the Auxiliary Prayer and Christine Todd, the Auxiliary Pledge.\nPresident Lisa introduced guests Ann Tuss, representing the CMMC Foundation and Carey Darlington, the Human Resources Coordinator; then welcomed new members Linda Glidewell, Neysha Humphries and Diana Jackson.\nMinutes were read and approved by a motion from Betty Yaeger and seconded by Barb Janicek. Correspondence included a thank you note from Maxine Lechner for her life membership and plaque and thank you letters from scholarship recipients Ethan Bent, Amber Strouf, Ember Drividahl, and Chase Gerer. Cards from the Emergency Room, Acute Care, and Laboratory Departments were read thanking the Auxiliary for the equipment recently purchased for these departments. This is a project the Auxiliary does every year with the money they earn.\nA new member list was circulated among those present for updating phone and email listings.\nUnder Old Business, the president announced Laurie Ray would not be there to give the flu shots as scheduled, but that by going to Occupational Health we could all get our shots. Those working with people need to have flu shots and the hospital needs proof of the shots if they get them elsewhere. During flu season, it is necessary to wear a mask if we do not have the flu shots. It was agreed to ask Laurie to come give the shots at the October meeting.\nAccording to Ann Tuss of the CMMC Foundation, there will be a new information desk in approximately two weeks. Changes to the waiting areas were discussed and she explained they were foreseeing future architectural plans for the gift shop near the entrance of the hospital. This would also involve the honor board.\nUnder committee reports, Leann said she does not have all the totals yet but the garage sale went very well, thanks to all the volunteers that turned out to help.\nLinda Werdin reported that after 30 years, Nell Cruikshank will no longer do the mail. She not only delivered it, but did the scheduling as well. Jean Roper took over the job, but they need volunteers. Neysha stepped up to the work. This doesn’t mean Nell is no longer working. Now you will find her at the information desk, ready to assist any way she can. Our thanks, Nell. You’re the best.\nFirst under new business, was an announcement from Ann Tuss that the Volunteer Recognition Appreciation Dinner is returning. She said the work of the Auxiliary was incredible and is very much appreciated. Time and place will be announced later.\nCarey Darlington, HR coordinator, said she would like to join our group and was heartily welcomed.\nJerry Carpenter reported the blood drawing was exceptionally successful. She reminded us the hospital gets blood from the Red Cross so we work with the Red Cross to replenish the blood. She also announced diabetes classes will be starting and urged everyone to attend.\nPatty Neeman requested members who are on a committee but will not be at a meeting give their reports to Lisa so they can be read at the meeting. It was also announced that those who cannot work their scheduled shift are to find their own replacement.\nLisa asked for volunteers for the annual Hospital Meeting on Oct. 2. Jerry and Louise volunteered to handle the registration, and Linda Werdin will be the speaker in the absence of Lisa (who’ll be away becoming a grandmother).\nThe pass-it-on plate brought by Janelle Wichman was won by Barb Janicek.\nThe meeting was adjourned and our new President Lisa was given a round of applause for her successful first meeting. Members are urged to attend our next meeting Oct. 10 at 12 p.m. (noon) in the Conference Room of the CMM\n-"}

{"text": "- Lynne\nMake Yourself an Indoor Herb Garden\nAn Indoor Herb Garden is a wonderful investment in creating healthier and tastier home cooked meals. The beauty of an indoor garden is that you can harvest herbs all year round. Even those tender herbs like basil are easy to grow with the right indoor conditions. It's not difficult and it can be very quick to set up. My husband put ours together so that it can be dismantled during the warmer months when my garden is blooming and my herb pots are over-flowing with herbs. Then in the late Fall I can set it up again and have fresh herbs all Winter long.\nIn this picture you can see some simple wooden crates being used as supports. On top of the crates we've placed a pre-made counter top. This one we saved from changing out our countertops for granite. It was stored in the garage for several years until we decided to put this together. These pre-made countertops are available at places like Lowes, Home Depot and Habitat for Humanity stores. You don't have to worry about water damage as they are formica and, therefore, water resistant. You could also use wine crates as your supports or come up with another creative support solution.\nThe next thing you're going to need are some grow lamps.\nThese grow lamps, that I ordered from Amazon, have 4 individual arms that can be used to light 4 different plants. I have a total of three lamps so 12 possible plants.\nI usually have parsley, sage, oregano, thyme and basil. Rosemary grows all winter in my garden so I don't have to keep that indoors. The rosy glow is from the lamps. You can set the timer on the lamps for different amounts of time. We usually set them for 12 hours a day.\nYou can have really healthy plants that you will enjoy all Winter long. It doesn't take much effort and the reward results in great dishes and happy eaters. Think about creating your own indoor herb garden. You will not regret that decision."}

{"text": "<! 4/26/96>\nC\nivilization goes up and comes down in pieces. It has its parts like Art, Science, Politics, Philosophy, etc.\nThis is my estimate of their present and past states.\nThe Black line represents the optimism of people about life in general based on what I see in expressions of art. It never reached levels in the early Renaisance that were reached in the time preceeding the rise of Greek culture.\nPurple is art. I give its zenith as the self portrait of Albrecht Durer ca.1500. Afterwards things tend to get \"baroque\" . One of Leonardo's angels has the \"Archaic smile\" around this period. That smile represents the next to high point in a civilizations' rise. The current muck of twentieth century junk, glob & smear art has worn so thin that it could be replaced by almost anything anytime. Just look at the Vietnam war memorial statue and you say \"This ought properly to replace the junk.\" It will. Wait 'n see.\nThe Blue line represents politics which by most accounts must have its zenith in the late eighteenth century (expressed by the American Declaration of Independence). It has been going down ever since and no men of stature in this realm are presently visible.\nRed is physics. It reached its high water mark in the last century. It has been going down since and nearly terminates in the swamp of late twentieth century \"name games\" and the quest for bigger machines to do the work intended for a mind. (Despite claims to the contrary, the super conducting super collider was a cudgel with which to 'beat' the truth out of nature. A false hope since no machine generates knowledge . . . only data. I was sorry to see it dismantled because the defeat was seen as a victory over science rather than a victory for science.) This subject is nearly deceased.\nGray is for mathematics which has its high water mark in Gauss and Euler as well as others of that era. In the twentieth century, research mathematicians have no longer any idea of the fundamentals of their craft and have accepted extended computer solutions to historic questions in lieu of answers of appropriate scale.\n\"Gentlemen, you don't find appropriate solutions because you are really bad at what you do.\"\nToday there are no men of stature in pure mathematics. The subject is dead but has a stronger hold than bad art because most people do not know mathematics and are easily decieved by its witch doctor practicioners.\nGray also fits well with music (Bach, Beethoven, Brahms). It has declined to absolute zero in the form of \"rat\" music (music that sounds like a rat running over a keyboard).\nLight Blue is for heavy industry. This area is on the way down. Because it is the base upon which technology (Yellow) rests, technology is doomed though presently it is meteoric in its rise. Medical knowledge (White) is also rising but rests on technology. So it will tumble soon enough as well.\nI often have the sense that history is now a battle between, not good and evil, but rather technology and evil. But technology has no voice. It simply holds up to inspection that which makes life possible and/or enjoyable. People see the difference but words will win out in the end. We act on \"worded\" thoughts, not visions . . . these lack an algebraic quality by which we test for truth or falsity.\nI would expect of course, to get many an argument about this and I have not tried to be very accurate. My main thesis is that civilization has been deteriorating despite its apparent ability to cope with physical existence.\nAn element of civilization which has collapsed loses its ability to influence. It wears paper thin and is ready for replacement. The new element then starts its way up again. This process will repeat until history comes to an end.\nAnd, it does have an end.\nIn fact this period of the Earth's life (history) lasts only perhaps 10 or 20 thousand years depending on how you define it. We are presently right in the middle of history (the point of no return or in our case the point of . . . failsafe ).\nBy \"failsafe\" I mean, we are presently decaying but things may well turn around if we but put forth the effort."}

Nonetheless there continued to be debate amongst educators over whether or not authorized training must be extra vocational, as at the private legislation faculties, or via a rigorous scientific technique, corresponding to that developed by Story and Langdell. In the words of Dorsey Ellis, “Langdell viewed law as a science and the legislation library because the laboratory, with the cases offering the idea for studying those ‘ideas or doctrines’ of which regulation, considered as a science, consists. The first university in Europe, the University of Bologna, was founded as a college of law by 4 famous authorized scholars in the eleventh century who have been college students of the glossator school in that metropolis.\nLife As A Medical Student: 12 Things You Really Have To Know\nIn half to compete with the small professional legislation colleges, there started a great change in U.S. university legal education. For a short time starting in 1826 Yale started to offer a complete “practitioners’ course” which lasted two years and included sensible courses, such as pleading drafting. Supreme Court justice Joseph Story started the spirit of change in authorized schooling at Harvard when he advocated a extra “scientific research” of the law in the 19th century.\nAmong other issues, the scholar’s tutorial program must be approved in advance by Texas Tech. Our dual-diploma packages equip Vermont Law School students with academic credentials from a prestigious European collegeâ€“the CY Cergy Paris UniversitÃ© or the University of Cambridge. These applications afford students more time overseas to directly connect with students, faculty, and potential employers and achieve worldwide expertise while they earn a JD from Vermont Law and a second diploma from our partner college. Specifically for regulation college students, there are additionally loads of extra-curricular activities which could be actually rewarding for yourself and others.\nprogram of research is the same as that of their traditional legislation diploma, which is normally extra scholarly in purpose than the professional coaching meant with the J.D. Scholarly works are deemed only persuasive, and never binding on the courts. As such, varied characteristics can due to this fact be seen among J.D.\nThe school organizes worldwide conferences, visits by nationally acclaimed legislation practitioners to permit the scholars gain skills and experience within the area of legislation. Students get real-time experiences via moot courtroom competitions organized at nationwide and international levels.\nBut an undergraduate degree in law will provide helpful coaching for many who wish to proceed their legal education in regulation school. Moreover, Law BA college students admitted to the James E. Rogers College of Law via the three+three program can earn their BA and JD in much less time. Approved by Bar Council of India, LPU School of Law is likely one of the greatest Law faculties in India and Punjab. The students are groomed for shiny professional careers by offering wide range of publicity to theoretical in addition to sensible aspects of law.\nLaw Schools look for and settle for college students from all majors and a variety of backgrounds. Any student who anticipates making use of to regulation faculty is considered a pre-regulation student; nevertheless, guidelines for approaching undergraduate study help prepare college students for the challenges of the LSAT examination, a legal education, and the occupation. To turn into a licensed lawyer, an individual should hold the Licenciado en Derecho degree obtainable by 4 to 5 years of educational examine and final examination.\nThere is no single â€˜legislation diploma expertiseâ€™, a lot as thereâ€™s no single â€˜college expertiseâ€™; select what you want to make your priorities over the three 12 months interval, so long as you always make time for your work. The BA in Law is a level meant to offer a authorized background to college students who want to pursue a law-related career for which legal training is useful however for which a JD just isn’t required. Admission to legislation college is a multidimensional course of not dependent on oneâ€™s undergraduate major.\nThis served because the mannequin for different law faculties of the Middle Ages, and different early universities such because the University of Padua. The first academic degrees may have been doctorates in civil legislation (doctores legum) followed by canon legislation (doctores decretorum); these weren’t skilled degrees but rather indicated that their holders had been approved to teach at the universities. While Bologna granted solely doctorates, preparatory degrees (bachelor’s and licences) have been launched in Paris after which in the English universities. The standards established by the ABA for receiving credit for our semester overseas programs (outlined as “Criteria for Student Study at a Foreign Institution” by the ABA) could be found at the ABA Student Study Site.\nThe payment structure is dependent upon the parameters of your scholarship primarily based on your last qualification and other parameters. LPU caters to the development of its students and tries to work out the problems of funds and provides hassle free education to the scholars who convey laurels to the college. There are many scholarships in addition to the lecturers like final qualification, National Level Tests, nationwide toppers and so forth. Most regulation college deans and college, the Law School Admissions Council, the American Bar Association, and most universities haven’t any formally prescribed pre-regulation main or focus choice."}
{"text": "Whenever people talk about Hosted Login, they typically talk about the underlying technologies: OAuth 2.0; OpenID Connect; API clients and client settings, login and token policies. That should come as no surprise: those technologies are pretty cool, and they’re the reason why Hosted Login is such a revolutionary new product.\nAt that same time, however, there’s another aspect of Hosted Login – the end user experience – that should never be discounted when discussing the things that makes Hosted Login so cool and so revolutionary. Out of the box, Hosted Login provides a sleek, modern user experience that can be used with minimal tweaking and branding. (Although, if you’re so inclined, you can go well beyond “minimal” when it comes to tweaking and branding.) In this documentation, we’ll provide an overview of the primary Hosted Login screens, giving you some idea of what it means for an end user to interact with Hosted Login.\nBefore we do that, however, let’s take a quick look at two diagrams. The first diagram shows how the login and registration screens connect to one another:\nThe second diagram shows how the user profile screens are connected:\nAnd now, let’s take a closer look at each screen.\nLogin Page\nHosted login supports two different ways for users to authenticate:\n- Traditional login, in which a user signs on by supplying an email address and password.\n- Social login, in which the user actually logs on to their account on a supported identity provider (such as Facebook or Twitter), then is given access to the app or website based on that IDP account.\nRegistration Page\nProvides a way for users to create a traditional login account (that is, an account that uses an email address and password). Social registrations are not directly created from this page. Instead, a user who wants to register socially clicks their chosen identity provider on the login page, then logs on to the IDP. When user account information is returned from the identity provider, Hosted Login:\n- Validates the password against the prescribed password rules (for example, passwords must contain at least 8 characters).\n- Searches the user profile store to see if the account already exists.\nIf the password is valid and user account already exists, the user is logged on. If the password is valid but the user account does not exist, then Hosted Login initiates the process of creating a new account for the user.\nProvides a way for users to reset their account password. (Typically this is because users have forgotten their password; users who simply want to change their password can do so by accessing their user profile.) Note that the ability to reset a password applies only to a user’s Hosted Login password; it cannot be used to reset a password on, say, Facebook or Twitter. If a user can’t log on because he or she has forgotten their Facebook password, they’ll have to go through Facebook’s process for resetting their password.\nUser Profile Page\nProvides access to the user’s user profile and other account-related information. This includes the ability to manage consents, and the ability to delete the account and all the associated personal data.\nPersonal Data Page\nThe typical user profile. You can modify the flow in order to specify which attributes users will have access to.\nAccount Security Page\nGives users a chance to change their Hosted Login password, and also to link their account with an identity provider account. For example, if a user links their account with Twitter, then that user can log on either by supplying their Hosted Login email address and password, or by logging on socially via Twitter. Users can also unlink social login accounts from here. In that case, the user removes the ability to login by using their Twitter of Facebook account.\nPrivacy Settings Page\nUsers can manage consents, request a copy of their personal data, and ask that their account be deleted."}
{"text": "How To Promote Your Online Shop In A Global Scale\nThere are many ways in which you can market your online shop. In order to broaden your targeting, you need to use approaches of marketing that aren’t focused on a small area.\nForget billboards and flyers!\nYou need ways to reach people from all around the world in an effective way.\nA lot of brands tend to expand globally for two reasons.\n- They can reach more people thus sell more\n- The market in other countries may not be as saturated\nBy expanding globally, you get access to an incredible number of potential customers. You just need to reach them, convince them, then sell to them.\nIn this article, we’ll be discussing How To Promote Your Online Shop In A Global Scale.\n1. Use social media\nIf you’re new to social media and using social media as a marketing tool, Instagram is always a great place to start.\nInstagram is easy to use and still have a fairly good organic reach left – as opposed to Instagram, which means that you can get great results from the platform without paying for ads.\nFacebook is also a good place to market your online store, however, because of the limited organic reach, you’ll either have to pay or work harder in order to get any results.\nStart by joining a few groups and contribute your knowledge to people looking for information in your niche. When you present yourself as an authority in your industry, people will start coming to you for information and help – which is extremely valuable for customer retention and engagement as a brand.\n(More on Facebook groups further on).\nShare quality content\nSince Instagram is visually driven, and most other social platforms are as well, sharing quality content is key.\nNobody goes to social media to see low-quality boring images and if you share them, you probably won’t get much traction.\nObviously, your objective with social media is to promote your product and store, and if you want to do that, it’s not enough to just photograph a product with your phone and then post it.\nThe key to getting people engaged with your content and products is to share posts that incorporate the products in a very discreet yet appealing way.\nWatch brand Daniel Wellington does this extremely well:\nHave a consistent theme\nYou want to have a consistent theme of your page and the content you share so that your business is easily recognizable. When someone sees a photo from you, they should be able to instantly tell that it is yours.\nTo create a coherent and consistent brand message with your content, it is all about how you create the content. To make your images look similar, you can do the following:\n- Put a watermark/logo in all your images\n- Use the same filter on all your posts\n- Edit them in the same way\n- Use the same frame on all of them\nFollow and engage\nIf you want your brand noticed on social media, Following and engaging with potential customers essential.\nWhen you engage with people, they become aware of your brand and might decide to follow you.\nAlso, by engaging with people, such as leaving a kind comment on their post or liking a few images of theirs, there’s a chance they’ll visit your profile and then click through to your website, thus resulting in more traffic and an increased brand awareness.\nThe best way to is to make your audience trust you, and by engaging with your audience on a personal level, you increase their trust in you, while also getting loyal supporters in your brand.\n2. Does your shop have any content on it?\nSearch engines love content, so if you want to rank higher and gain more organic traffic, you need to create content.\nHaving content on your website has several benefits.\n- Increases the visitor time\n- Decreases the bounce rate\n- Attract people who initially wasn’t interested in your product\n- Convince people that they need your products\n- Let people discover your website and products\nContent on your website can be everything from articles, blog posts, infographics, videos, quiz, games, and so on. The key to creating valuable content is to make it informational, entertaining, informing. or insight, such as articles, blog posts, infographics, videos, etc? If not, you definitely want to add some content to your website.\nContent apart from the products themselves can be seen on almost every successful online store – and that’s because it works!\nDeath Wish coffee have a whole section for content that is made to attract more visitors and make the existing visitors stay longer.\nYou want to give people a reason to keep coming back to your online shop apart from your products, and by having appealing content, you can attract the people who you are trying to target, then let them know about your products.\n3. Where are you getting traffic from?\nIs it organic (search engine) or do you have advertising in place?\nAs an e-commerce site, you are obviously heavily dependent on traffic. If you don’t get any traffic, you won’t make any sales.\nSimple as that!\nTherefore, a lot of your focus when it comes to expanding globally is to increase your traffic.\nThe type of traffic you get matters because if your traffic isn’t targeted, and those who visit your site aren’t actually interested in what you have to offer, it means they’ll quickly leave and certainly not buy from you.\nAdvertising\nIf you have a budget for advertising, paid traffic can be tremendously valuable. The great thing with ads is that you decide what people will see your ads – something that you cannot do with organic search.\nFor paid marketing, Facebook ads and Google Adwords are the two big players.\nGoogle Adwords help you get your content to rank higher without having to focus on search engine optimization. However, just because you are paying for traffic, you should absolutely not neglect SEO. If you add them together and work with both SEO and paid traffic, you can get quite impressive results.\nGoogle Adwords lets you pay for different keywords, and based on how much you are paying for that keyword, and how much your competitors are bidding for the top spot, you can end up on the top every single time.\nThe great thing about Google is that you target the keywords that your audience actually search for. For example, if someone searches for “Coffee beans”, chances are, they are looking for coffee beans.\nHave in mind:\nWhen going after keywords to pay for on Google Adwords, you want to target so-called “paying key words” or “money key words”.\nThe names of the keywords are simple: They are keywords where the searcher is ready to pay.\nFor example, compare two keywords of different nature:\n- Free coffee beans\n- Coffee beans free shipping\nWhich of these two keywords do you think are most likely to generate a sale?\nIt’s easy to see which of these brands value the most and are ready to invest money in because obviously, they don’t want to pay for keywords where the user isn’t prepared to buy anything.\nWhen paying for Adwords, going after “paying keywords” is key to driving the right type of traffic to your website that will repay you for the invested money.\nSearch engine optimization\nSearch engine optimization means optimizing your website so that you can rank higher in search engines and get more traffic as a result.\nGet Backlinks\nOne way you can improve your search engine ranking is through backlinks.\nWherever you go to read about Search engine optimization and ranking better on Google, backlinks are brought up. In case you didn’t know, backlinks are links placed on one website pointing to another website. One of Google’s over 200 ranking factors is backlinks, and they have a huge weight to them. For Google, backlinks are indications of a popular website that people enjoy.\nThe more backlinks you have, the better you’ll rank. However, it’s not just the number of links that count. It’s also the quality of the links that are pointing to your site that matters. Therefore, good backlinks to your website will help to increase the overall Search Engine Rank of it and help generate more traffic.\nWe’ve already touched on social media channels, but Twitter is a platform we didn’t mention that has the power to generate tons of traffic to your site.\nTwitter is a social channel that is used by most bloggers and businesses looking to increase their traffic. The great thing about Twitter is that it lets you reach people globally and from all around the world.\nGoogle has also admitted that they take social signals such as retweets, mentions of your brand etc. when ranking websites, so getting traction on Twitter can further help you market your website globally since more people will be able to find it in the search results.\nSubmit your website to listings\nWhichever niche you are in, there are people creating lists of the “top most popular websites” within that space.\nFor example:\n- Top e-commerce stores for horse supplies\n- Top 5 e-commerce stores for men’s fashion\n- Best 10 e-commerce website for tennis supplies\nAnd so on…\nIf you can get your website to be featured on these lists, not only will you get a ton of exposure and a lot of direct traffic, you’ll also get a backlink to your website, leading to better search engine ranking.\nA practice you shouldn’t take is to submit your website to listings. This was a popular practice a few years ago since people were absolutely desperate for backlinks but didn’t care about the quality of them\nToday, Google’s algorithm also looks at the quality of the links that point to your site, and if you submit your site to a directory, you’ll end up on a website that points to thousands of other websites. The issue is that Google tends to see these websites as spam, thus making the link to your website harm you instead.\nParticipate in forum discussions\nYou should engage and be active in at least two or three forums related to your niche where people in your target audience are to be found.\nSome of the most popular discussion/question & ask forums are:\nOf course, if you are in a very niche market and looking to reach people more globally, you might find more success in using more niche-specific forums that only discuss things in your industry.\nSet up your profile, add your profile information, signature, and profile picture to make yourself more approachable.\nStart engaging with people, answer questions, and ask questions.\nBy showing your expertise within your area, and doing it consistently, you’ll soon display yourself as a thought leader, making yourself the go-to source for people.\nNot only will you attract more people to your store since your audience will believe you are the best in your industry based on the knowledge you have shown, you’ll also build your brand within the industry you’re in which will be far more valuable for long-term results.\nFacebook Groups\nJoining Facebook groups is a great way to reach and engage with people in your niche. You can promote your website and store, but be careful because people generally don’t like spammers and self-promoters. Find a good balance between providing value and promoting your site, and you can get targeted traffic to your site that converts.\nWhen joining groups, make sure that they are actually relevant to your niche. There’s no point in joining a horse-related Facebook group if you are selling cat equipment.\nBonus tips\nPay Per click ads include all types of ads where you only pay when you get a click. This is a popular marketing method as you only pay for the results that the ad is generating.\n- Forum marketing\nAs we discussed above, using forums for reaching your targeted audience, and reaching a more widespread audience globally is a great idea.\nForum marketing is completely free, and you are reaching those who actually matter for your e-commerce.\n- SEO\nSearch engine optimization is one of the most effective digital marketing sources to date. By learning how Google (and other search engines) rank websites, you can optimize your website to rank higher and get much more traffic to your website. With Google, that traffic is highly relevant because those who are searching for your keywords are most likely interested in your niche.\nFacebook ads offer the ability to create highly targeted ads that let you choose very specific criteria when targeting. This means a very high ROI for invested money.\n- Using coupons and freebies\nCoupons and freebies are always a great way to attract people to your site. Use one of the mentioned ways to promote your freebie and discount campaign, and watch your customers increase.\n- Sending samples of your products to top bloggers in your niche in exchange for a review on their blogs\nAlso known as influencer marketing, identifying individuals who your target audience looks up to will not only help you reach your target audience, it will also impact them at a much higher level because your audience trusts the influencer and their recommendations\nYouTube is one of the most powerful social platforms today. If you are great with video making, you can draw interest to your site by creating appealing videos relevant to your niche.\nConclusion\nWhen looking to expand your geographical targeting audience, and promote your store outside of your current geographical targeting, it is important that you always have your target audience in mind.\nIt doesn’t matter where your audience is from, it only matters if they are relevant to your brand.\nIncrease your reach and exposure to the tips presented below and you can be sure to reach people on a global scale."}

{"text": "- 1.5KShares\n- Facebook1.5K\n- Twitter5\n- LinkedIn6\n- WhatsApp39\nWith SOPs changing with each successive C/R/MCO, the Cilisos office has yeeted so many plans out the window that the building owner banned us from having them. Windows, that is.\nSo, writing from MacOs, we wondered if other companies were facing similar issues and reached out to a few entrepreneurs to get their thoughts.\n1. The swimming centre that kena scolded for not knowing if they were closed or open\nSwimin12 is a company that guarantees that they can teach someone how to swim within 12 hours.\nSocially-distanced swimming classes. Image sent by Eu Juan\nOwner Eu Juan shared a timeline of how many times the SOPs changed in the 3 days after MCO 3.0 was announced, which probably gave him a butterfly stroke:\n“It created a lot of chaos when it comes to communicating with our students – we got scolded a lot for being uncertain if we are open or closed.\nIt also created a lot of frustration for our team as well; planning whether or not to shift to online teaching mode, if their job is secure, if can they continue doing what they love or have to look for another job. The most basic thing we need is certainty so that we, as business owners, can decide to close down, or to continue business, to let go staff or to keep, to shift into other industry or continue serving our existing customers. Without this certainty, a lot of irreversible regrettable decisions will be made.\nFor example, if we know we can’t afford to keep a staff when the pool closes for 2 months, we’ll tell the person “Sorry we have to let you go. When the hope of pools opening is there, we can’t just ask our team to come back, then ask them to leave again. Decisions like how many to hire, train, should we spend time training, should we sell certain assets etc. Certainty will help ensure that business owners can make decisive actions.”\n2. The restaurant that narrowly avoided an expensive Ramadhan\nSköhn’s Canteen is a casual family restaurant that serves halal Western and local food AND (wait for it) ….scones.\nWith the end of Ramadhan just around the corner and MCO 3.0 announced at the time of writing, owner Iskandar Azaman shared a really close call:\n“We were doing well before Ramadhan. Luckily. But the last minute change did cause some problems for us since we had to refund customers who’ve booked and paid deposit. The SOPs coming in hard at the last minute made it really tough. We would’ve been ok if they announced earlier and let us plan for our service.\nI think for most businesses it’s tough on the cashflow when MCO is declared. Because of the unpredictability of the government policies, we’ve cut out a lot of items in the menu so we don’t hold that much stock in the restaurant and not get caught out. So for example, because I wasn’t sure whether they’d be doing dine-in or not, I left ordering stuff for my Ramadhan buffet to the very last minute – Thank god cos they suddenly decided no dine in. If I had ordered I’d be landed with thousands of Ringgit worth of stock I can’t move.\nDue to MCO we’ve cut hours, reduced opening time, changed to more deliveries and basically our staff had to take on delivery duties too. I think for restaurants like mine where we are casual and can basically do whatever we want, we have more leeway to maneuver; but franchise businesses would be harder since they have to maintain their service no matter what.\nI personally feel that dine-in should have been able to be continued even during MCO. Most restaurants follow strict protocols anyway.”\n3. The gallery that had to sell veggies and durian to survive\nMinNature is a gallery that features sculptures that capture Malaysian heritage and culture in miniature form.\nAccording to owner Cheng Huat:\n“MinNature Malaysia is very young company venturing into the tourism industry at a very very wrong time.\nWe opened the business on March 3rd 2020. The MCO hit us 2 weeks later and we’ve been mostly closed throughout. We cannot do anything – even appeals were not entertained. We still had to pay the full DBKL license, despite writing letters to the mayor for exemptions (but tak layan). We also negotiating our rent with the landlord (lucky layan a bit).\nWe cannot do marketing at all during the RMCO period due to the fact, each time we spend, a month later, we are closed again indefinitely.\nWe spent during our opening, closed in 2 weeks.\nWe spent on CMCO for merdeka, a few weeks later shut down again.\nChristmas and CNY marketing when down the drain as MCO 2.0 happened.\nAnd recently, MCO 3.\nWe had to retrench all our staff in October 2020. We couldn’t sustain them without any opportunity to conduct any sort of business. We tried to pivot, but what can a miniature gallery do ? We have been trying to sell vegetables, making toys and, now, selling durians to keep afloat.\nI just don’t understand why supermarkets and all the other crowded places can open and we can’t. Has the government visited museums and art galleries before? Lalat more than people…\nIf the government wishes to close economies, they have to thoroughly study the ramifications and the domino effects of their actions. I think its very unfair for us to pay for those types of policies. Let us open, we can adhere to very strict SOPs. Malaysia will just run out of these wonderful places, as all will just shut down for good. We are not on/off switches. Can’t just turn businesses on and off. Once we are off, we are off for good.\nWe have no support what so ever from Ministry of Tourism despite multiple times writing and calling them. Probably MinNature was never meant to be. Thank you for listening.”\n4. The holistic healing centre that had to ask for help to pay rent\nPrana World Malaysia is a holistic healing centre; using meditation, Pranic Healing, and Arhatic Yoga to promote spirituality, self-development, healing, and general health.\nSocially-distanced workshop, when they still could. Image from Sundar Ramanathan\nInstructor and Business Development head Sundar Ramanathan tells us:\n“We’re HRDF certified and conduct trainings in-house and workshops at clients’ venue under normal circumstances. We can’t conduct trainings or gatherings under MCO or CMCO, so we’ve had to change the business model multiple times; from being a training provider to focusing on online healing sessions; offline, then online. Every time they change the SOP, we have to reschedule all our appointments. The company has effectively split in 2, and everyone is working double time, half pay, super confused, and really tired. Our main mission is on teaching people to self heal, but we had to ditch that to enter survival mode. Which sucks.\nWe’ve postponed our in-house workshops so many times, some of our potential students have left the country, moved cities or simply requested a refund or cancelled their reservations.\nMITI doesn’t approve training providers like us to operate our business. We’re in the process of getting TCM certification but paperwork has been halted. So we can’t go to the gomen to get certified (it requires an interview process).\nWe did not have sufficient alternative income to sustain the center, so we called on the community of people who have been healed to help pay our rent. We know everyone is doing their best and the gomen trying to control the situation… we’re just one of those industries that got hit badly.\nSorry a bit of ranting in there 🙏🏽”\n5. The Comedy Club that had to deliver jokes… with their pizza\nCrackhouse Comedy Club KL is no stranger to many KL and PJ-ites looking for a good laugh, since it’s Malaysia’s first and longest-running event space for stand-up comedy.\nCo-founder and stand-up comedian Rizal van Geyzel says:\n“Crackhouse Comedy Club KL opened in May 2014 and has hosted weekly international headliners from all over the world as well as budding new talent in a grassroots comedy “scene”. A lot of the club’s success was predicated on having locals, expats and tourists crowd the space for a comedy club experience.\nSince March 2020, that vanished overnight.\nWe went from having 120 people to 25 following SOP’s guidelines, making it impossible to sustain on ticket sales alone. Luckily PENJANA/CENDANA came to the rescue, but we don’t know for how long. In fact, the funding period is over so we are on our own.\nHeavily affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, we spent three months personally designing a brand new pizza menu, with every ingredient used prepared freshly in the recently-refurbished kitchen. Available on all major delivering partners. Staying true to its Comedy flagship, every order comes with a QR code containing a 1-min comedy clip provided by past International headliners, showing solidarity with the club as well as providing laughter during lockdown.”\nIt’s not really the MCO itself, but the prep time and clarity\nFor the most part, business owners understand the reasons behind the MCO, but it ain’t easy making preparations when they’re announced just a few days beforehand. Not just that, SOPs aren’t properly communicated or are inconsistent, leading to more confusion.\nThe last person we spoke to is someone who’s been chronicling the entire Malaysian Covid saga in the best possible way:\nErnest Ng started the Covidball series on his Facebook Page back in March 2020. Since then, he’s drawn enough pages to publish 3 volumes in printed form. Not just that’s he’s also got a video production company called Macam Yes Studios.\n“People now go to bookstores less so the sales of my books were affected – my books at bookstore all sitting on shelves only lol. Therefore I had to pivot and my most recent book titles are sold on Shopee. I actually never thought of opening an online store pre-pandemic but in a weird way this pandemic has made me step out of my comfort zone and take on new challenges.\nAs for video shoots, some projects got cancelled lo, even though they are already halfway thru pre-production.”\nWhile the constant MCOs and other related shenanigans mean that Ernest may never run short of material, he may be working on the Covidball series for a very long time.\n- 1.5KShares\n- Facebook1.5K\n- Twitter5\n- LinkedIn6\n- WhatsApp39\n"}

{"text": "Cosmetic Dental Care\nAt Burlingame Dental Arts, we offer cosmetic dental care services that help our patients enjoy a healthy, beautiful looking smile for a lifetime. Our patients have come to rely on us for providing exceptional cosmetic dentistry services designed to help keep their teeth looking and feeling their best.!\nTeeth Whitening\nTeeth whitening is a very popular cosmetic dental procedure in the United States. It is inexpensive and incredibly safe. Depending on your preference, you can choose to whiten just your upper teeth or both the top and bottom rows. You’ll be amazed at the difference just one teeth whitening treatment can make, and how confident you will feel about the appearance of your smile.\nDon’t wait to get the healthier, better-looking smile you’ve always wanted. Schedule your next teeth whitening treatment today!\nComposite Dental Fillings\nEven the healthiest smiles occasionally develop a cavity that requires a filling to correct. To help repair and improve the health of our patients’ smiles, we offer composite dental fillings.\nUnlike traditional amalgam or silver fillings that stand out from the natural appearance of a patient’s smile, composite fillings are “tooth-colored” so they blend seamlessly with tooth enamel. Composite fillings are incredibly durable, contain no trace amounts of mercury, and won’t stain neighboring teeth. When properly cared for with brushing and flossing, composite fillings can last for a lifetime.\nIf you need a cavity filled, don’t wait to restore your smile back to health. See the remarkable difference composite fillings can make to the look and feel of your oral health.\nCEREC Same Day Dental Crowns\nAt Burlingame Dental Arts, we begin CEREC treatment by taking 3D images of the damaged tooth and use those images to create custom impressions of your future crown. Using cutting-edge technology, your porcelain crown is designed to blend seamlessly with neighboring teeth to create a flawless smile. Once the dentist is satisfied with the quality of the scan, the design is sent to our in-office manufacturing machine, where your crown is produced from a block of ceramic. When complete, the restoration is placed on the damaged tooth and you are free to resume your daily routine.\nCEREC same day crowns offer a number of benefits when compared to traditional crowns, including:\n- Same-day placement\n- No need to use a temporary crown\n- A natural-looking appearance\n- A crown that is all-ceramic with no metal\n- Cutting-edge technology designed to provide optimal oral health\nPorcelain Veneers\nPorcelain veneers are made from incredibly thin shells of ceramic that bond directly to the front side of your teeth. Because they blend naturally into the appearance of any smile, they are a great treatment option for patients looking to correct the appearance of crooked, stained, chipped, or uneven teeth.\nDuring the first visit, an impression of your teeth is taken and sent off to a lab where your veneers will be made using only the highest quality materials. During your second appointment, your dentist will prepare your teeth for the placement of the veneers, which will then be placed into position during the final third appointment.\nGive us a call at (503) 218-4285 to schedule your cosmetic dental care appointment."}

{"text": "Grab a Cuppa and Join Me!\nWow friends, it has been a wild month for us all, hasn’t it? On our journey the past 10 weeks we have had the opportunity to visit our Connecticut partners in ministry. While we were there on March 22 and 23 I got a chance to share a bit about a life-changing thing that happened to us 8 years ago on March 22, 2012. Let me share with you what happened that day that has shaped our outlook on life since then.\nIn March of 2012 we visited Gembu, Nigeria for the first time to see if Dan and I were good canidates to continue the ministry of GECHAAN after Art and Dorothy retired. March 22, 2012 we left Gembu, Nigeria to head back to MN. We had just decided that we were going to raise support, sell our house, quit our jobs and return to Gembu to continue the ministry Art and Dorothy Helwig had founded at GECHAAN. 4 hours down the road Dan and I were talking about dreams of what God might do when we moved to Nigeria. We came to a place in the road that we thought was a checkpoint but was in fact, robbers. They started shooting at our vehicle as we tried to escape, I got a bullet from an AK-47 through my upper thigh. About 2 miles down the road the vehicle over-heated because a bullet went through the radiator hose and our vehicle stopped right there on the side of the road. I remember looking out the window praying. I was as close to panic as I have ever been in my life. I was afraid – there was no place to hide, we had 2 people bleeding profusely, my leg was shot, and our vehicle was not operational. I was looking out the window saying to God, “God, they were really trying to stop us, please stop them from trying to come and find us. Please don’t let them find us.” AT THAT MOMENT – I felt God say to me, “Tina, this is where I want you and I will take care of you.”\nI am not exaggerating when I say I have never experienced peace like I did at that moment. It was a peace that did not depend on my current circumstances, it depended on who God IS.\nThis past year has not gone as planned, I know that is the case for ALL of us with recent developments. During Dan’s stroke, recovery, second stroke, visiting supporters and not being able to get back to Nigeria when we planned we have experienced peace. Of course we need to get back to Nigeria, but we know God has it all under control and we will get back when the time is right. We will be working from our MN home for the time being. Asking God the best things to do and focus on and then doing them.\nFriends, I want you to remember this one thing as we go through these uncertain times. This is what God designed the church for. During plagues in the dark ages who were the people caring for the sick and diseased while everyone else was leaving? THE CHURCH. Not the building, Jesus-followers. Friends it is time for us to SHINE AGAIN and show the world the reason for our hope. We don’t know what the future days will bring, but we do know who holds our tomorrows, we know who gives us a peace that defies this world. Friends, let’s be the church Jesus called us to be. I love you friends, lets do this!\n[/pl_text]\n[/pl_col]\n[/pl_row]\nRecent Comments"}

{"text": "I usually do nothing fancy with my windows. I open them. Later, I close them. In between, I may maximize them or unmaximize them. I move them around the screen.\nThe two fancy things I do are: 1) “Maximize” a window onto a portion of a screen using drag magic of some kind (most Linux desktop environments have this) or b) tell a window to move itself to a different workspace.\nMost, nay, all, desktop environments have a larger set of fancy window behavior control than this. The whole idea of controlling, or even having, windows in which software runs, is fundamental to the Nix environment, and Linux is the modern and most widely used version of Nix. But I think it is possible that KDE has the mostest and bestest of these abilities.\nFor example. You can right click on the top bar on the window and pick “more actions” from the context menu. This gives you “move,” “resize” and such, which you have access to in other ways. GBut it also gives you check boxes to “keep above others” or “keep below others” which is very hand when your multiple monitors start to fill up with stuff because your workflow has gone fractal.\nBurrow deeper and you can get to “special window settings.” This allows you to control behavior of a particular window in very detailed and even scary ways. You should probably not do any of this, but you should have a look.\nIn between these two cantos of configuration, you can find “Windows Manager Settings” in the window title bar context menu. This allows you to mess with windows decorations, screen edges, desktop effects, etc. You can get to all this via other configuration tools, but this is a handy way to make adjustments on the fly while you are actually using software.\nOne thing you may want to adjust here is when and how windows become translucent. I never used that feature before, and having the windows become semi-translucent when being moved is the default in KDE. I think people like this because it is a quick and dirty way to see what is behind the window. I find it a bit disconcerting because I sometimes am still reading what it is a window while I’m moving it. I wonder if there is a way to make a window go translucent optionally. Probably. OK just checked, there is.\nA key feature you will want to adjust is active screen edges and corners. Here you can turn on or off features that maximize, either to a full screen or a “tile,” the window you drag to an edge. This allows for quarter tiling. Right now I have the ability to mazimize a window by dragging the title area of the title bar to the top middle of a screen, to tile over the left or right half by dragging it to the appropriate side edge, or quarter-tiling the window by dragging it to a corner. It is a bit funky when I drag towards the second monitor … can get confused as to which monitor to tile the window on.\nWindows. Not just for Windows any more. Never were, really.\n1 thought on “KDE Window Behavior”\nThanks for doing this series on KDE by the way. People don’t talk much about Linux desktops anymore. Or maybe I’m just not looking anymore. Anyway, Linux won, that’s all that matters. Not the desktop of course, but everything else. I did delve into “special window settings” once. It was for an application that I needed to act a certain way for some reason. I don’t remember the application or anything about how I needed it to behave but you are right, it can be very dangerous to mess around with that feature. The “keep above/below others” (I use it quite a bit) is a very handy feature. I set my title bar so when I double click on it, it maximizes vertically only. It’s handy when you have a long list of things or when a window pops up and you need it to stretch the full height of the monitor but not the width like your browser."}
{"text": "It is against the law in Missouri for dealers to sell cars, trucks or motorcycles Sunday. Now there is a big push to get that law tossed out, at least for motorcycles.\nMissouri's Blue Law is being challenged. Lawmakers are proposing three bills that would allow for motorcycles to be sold in Platte and Jackson Counties on Sundays.\nThe reason is because some metro dealers feel it is not fair that they can't sell on Sundays when just across the border in Kansas, dealers can.\n\"It is difficult to open up and make people mad and that is kind of what we're doing right now,\" Rick Worth said.\nWorth Harley Davidson in Kansas City has been open seven days a week for 36 years, but the dealer's never sold a single motorcycle on Sundays. Worth could face up to a $300 fine and time in jail if he tried.\n\"Driving up on the highway, you see motorcycles on Sunday. That's when they ride, and that's when they want us to be here,\" he said.\nMissouri's Blue Law bans car, truck and motorcycle sales on Sundays. Worth wants motorcycle's to be exempt.\nWorth can sell merchandise, like a coat, on Sundays but when it comes to the bikes, they have to keep their mouths shut. They can't even tell buyers what color the bike is.\n.\nWorth keeps a sign by the front door that informs people about the law so customers don't feel ignored.\nStill, Worth says he is losing business. His biggest competitor is across state lines where they can sell on Sundays.\n\"We have estimated somewhere around 17 percent is the number we could increase our sales if we were open on Sunday, which is about $7 million, which is quite a bit.\nHe estimates a payroll increase of $700,000 which means 20 added jobs at his shop.\nKCTV5's Erika Tallan reached out to Worth's biggest competitor in Olathe to find out what they think of this. They did not return her calls to comment on the issue.\nWorth plans to head to Jefferson City to testify before lawmakers at the end of the week."}

His father and mother, Adam and Kate (Kelly) Douglas, were natives of Scotland. His grandparents, John and Jane (Wiley) Douglas, were also natives of Scotland. Adam Douglas, the father, came from Scotland to the United States and settled in Fulton County, Ill., in 1852, his wife having preceded him in 1849. Their family consisted of three boys and one girl, of whom John F. was the oldest boy.\nIn boyhood years the subject of this sketch attended the public school, and later the Macomb Branch Normal School, remaining on the home farm and assisting in its operation until January 1, 1903. At that period he moved to Bardolph and engaged in the hardware, agricultural implement and lumber business in partnership with H. N. Jackson. This partnership continued until September, 1904, when Mr. Jackson sold his interest to Frank Bethel, who has an equal share in the concern. It is the only firm of its kind in Bardolph, and does a good business. Mr. Douglas is a capable business man, and gives the affairs of the concern close attention.\nOn February 24.1897, Mr. Douglas was marned to Allie Parvin, who was born and schooled in Bardolph. Politically, Mr. Douglas is a follower of the Republican party. Fraternally, he is affilated with the I. O. O. F., M. W. A., K. of P. and A. F. & A.

{"text": "Section I: God’s complexity and simplicity as the “one who loves in freedom”\nThe attributes ascribed to God have no other function than to give expression as precisely as possible to the God who is love. (E. Jüngel, “Theses,” thesis 5.4.2)The subject of God’s attributes, or perfections, will not receive the close attention that it would otherwise deserve in an actual systematic theology. As a complementary addition to the quote from Jüngel, I begin with Barth’s great thesis that “God is the one who loves in freedom.” Barth’s definition of God’s being is significant in that it simultaneously affirms God’s sovereignty and freedom—what Jüngel calls God’s non-necessity—and God’s personal being as Love. God is a personal being who is free to act according to the divine self-positing will. God’s revelation is self-revelation and God’s being is self-determined being. God is who God wills to be. God is thus complex in “the inexhaustible riches of his attributes” (Jüngel), the plurality of facets of God’s being; but God is simultaneously simple as the one God in whom all the perfections of God’s being cohere in a mysterious unity.. (K. Barth, CD II.1, 343)This section functions as a prolegomena to the subject of two attributes which are important for the subject of universalism: love and righteousness, or mercy and holiness. The liberal universalist theologians of the nineteenth century up through today—including the general sentiment of contemporary “religious” society—emphasize God as love at the expense of God’s holiness. That is, they focus on God’s character as the loving creator and redeemer as if this overrules the “outdated” portrayal of God as judge. (One could and should call this “contemporary Marcionism.”) Albrecht Ritschl removed judicial language entirely from his famous account of justification and reconciliation, and some contemporary theologians like John A. T. Robinson do the same. The great error is that liberal theology operates, implicitly or explicitly, with a via eminentiae method of theological knowledge, meaning that they begin with human experience and then move to speak of God in light of what is “known” about human characteristics and actions. So when they speak about God’s nature as love, they define this attribute based on what they know of human love. When they speak about God as judge, they define this in terms of human justice. Such a method inevitably means that love and justice, mercy and righteousness, will be seen as antithetical to each other, or mutually exclusive. A person is merciful by withholding judgment. A person insists on righteousness at the expense of love and affirmation.\nAs we have already seen, Karl Barth views God as self-determining, and that means God determines what love, grace, holiness, righteousness, mercy, and justice mean for Godself. Humanity cannot ever define these terms for God. The unity and simplicity of God means that God cannot be divided up into different “gods”—such as the God of love and some other God of judgment. This was the fatal error in Luther’s theology, between the revealed God (deus revelatus) of grace and the hidden God (deus absconditus) of wrath. The moment we allow distinctions to become separations—which are often variations of the distinction between the immanent Trinity and the economic Trinity—we threaten to lose the one God attested to by Holy Scripture. This one God of the gospel happens to be infinitely rich in perfections, but these perfections exist in a perichoretic unity in which grace and judgment are not different sides of God but rather interanimating attributes of God’s ontological repleteness and superabundance. If we are going to explicate what it means to speak of God as love—which we must—then we will have to allow God’s being-in-act to define the essence of divine love. In other words, we will have to grapple with what it means for God to be holy love, whose grace is cauterizing and whose mercy judges us in our sinfulness while refusing to abandon us even while we persistently turn away.\nI end this section with two quotes by Karl Barth. They are worthy of separate sections of their own, and I heartily recommend giving them the attention they deserve. Barth provokes us to consider what it means to affirm God’s love as universal or cosmic in scope while at the same time particular and embodied in the person of Jesus Christ. At the same, however, he emphasizes that this divine love is holy, meaning that God accomplishes God’s purposes over against all opposition. Of course, we must remember that God’s revealed purpose is to redeem this world and create a fellowship of new persons who exist in restored relations with God, others, and themselves by the power of the Holy Spirit. God is the Lord of all creation as the one who loves in freedom.. In the Gospel of Israel’s Messiah and His fulfilment of the Law, of the Word that was made flesh and dwelt among us, of Him who died for our sins and rose again for our justification—in this Gospel the love of God is the first word. If then, as is proper, we are to be told by the Gospel who and what God is, we must allow this primary word to be spoken to us—that God is love. (CD II.1, 351). (CD II.1, 359)\nFurther Reading:\nKarl Barth, Church Dogmatics II.1, pp. 257-439\nE. Jüngel, God as the Mystery of the World, pp. 314-43\nE. Jüngel, “What does it mean to say, ‘God is love’?”\nPope Benedict XVI, Deus Caritas Est\n8 comments:\nDavid, there is a lot of material in this post worth pondering. Prima facie, I have only two questions, neither of which are very serious. But small mistakes at the beginning, etc. and so forth.\nYou call your section heading: \"Section I: God’s complexity and simplicity\". Now what is complex is not simple and vice versa, ex hypothesi. This seems like a simple slip of concentration to me, surely you aren't really meaning to say that there is complexity in the godhead?\nThe second thing that jumped out at me was two sentences from the Barth quote from 343 of II.1:\n\"God loves us. And because we can trust His revelation as the revelation of His own being He is in Himself the One who loves. As such He is completely knowable to us.\" (emPHASis added).\nWhen I read this, I literally flinched in my seat as if someone had stabbed me in the kidney. I share Barth's distaste for Luther's economic God of grace and immanent God of wrath. (Luther seems to be veering dangerously close to dualism again; I know we've argued about Luther's dualistic tendencies before.) But, that is no excuse for conceptual idolatry, which is exactly what thinking that you understand God completely is. Revelatory positivism (whether based on biblical inerrancy or Christocentrism) leaves you in the end with a totally immanent, conceptualizable, rational God.\nThomas's doctrine of analogy, for example, guards against this analogy by saying that it is always and only through analogy that we can speak of the divine, precisely because he is unable to be thematized in our concepts. He cannot be reduced to a part of the immanent totality.\nNote that Thomas is really just following the Eastern Fathers here, for whom God always remains in excess beyond, incomprehensible, etc. At any rate, the Bible itself does not seem to say that we know everything about God that there is to know, or that our finite human conceptualizations exhaust his essence. Rather, it says that we see through a glass, darkly, etc.\nthis is one area in which I think the \"post-moderns\" really do have something to contribute to theology. Read Jean Luc Marion on the difference between the icon and the idol in chapters 3 and 4 of \"God Without Being\".\nI fully intended to use the two words complexity and simplicity. They are not contradictory only insofar as they are used of God, because is not bound to human paradoxes. God is capable of uniting opposites in Godself, in the same way that mercy and judgment are not antithetical for God. If it helps, think of it this way: God is personally complex and ontologically simple. In other words, as Person, God is infinitely rich in perfections (complex beyond all created complexity), but as the divine Being, God is simple, in that God is one and not divided within Godself. Does that help?\nI want to affirm what Barth says without qualification. If you keep reading, you will see that Barth simultaneously affirms God's unknowability. That is why Barth speaks of God as the \"one who loves in freedom.\" Let me translate this into different terms: God is economically active as the immanent Trinity. In other words, the economic Trinity reveals Godself wholly and truly (re: there is nothing of God that is not revealed in Jesus Christ, meaning there is no remainder in God which remains obscured; who God is economically is who God actually is in Godself), while the immanent Trinity remains free and sovereign as the Lord (re: God is never part of the immanent created realm; God is always superior to the creation and free to reveal or not to reveal, but because God was incarnate in Jesus Christ, God did reveal Godself to us).\nThomas, the eastern Fathers, and even some contemporary theologians mislead us if they affirm God's hiddenness as something other than God's hiddenness in revelation. Barth's point is that God is indirectly revealed to us in Jesus Christ, i.e., God is not naturally available to all people in Jesus Christ but is available through the eyes of faith by the Holy Spirit. \"Flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, Peter...\"\nBarth does NOT subscribe to revelatory positivism. This is to misunderstand the analogia fidei and the nature of God's indirect revelation. Bonhoeffer was good on many things regarding Barth, but not on this point. But Barth and Bonhoeffer are agreed in not returning to a Scholastic or mystical notion of God's hiddenness. This obscures the fundamental theological point: the immanent Trinity is the economic Trinity, and vice versa. Rahner's axiom must be retained or else we lose all theological footing for speaking about God at all.\nPlease forgive me for speaking out of my depth here. I don't know trinitarian theology that well and I know almost nothing about 20th century takes on the subject. But, with that disclaimer in mind, I have to say Nein! to Barth.\nYou can't make words mean whatever you want them to mean because this destroys their ability to communicate meaning.\nA simple whole is a single something that is indivisible. A complex whole is constituted of parts. A point in geometry is simple because it has no parts. A car wheel is complex because it a tire and a rim.\nThe mystery of the trinity is that God is three persons yet absolutely simple. The Father is not a part of God, the Son is not a part of God, the Holy Ghost is not a part of God. Rather, Father is God, the Son is God and the Spirit is God. Yet there are not three Gods, but one. The orthodox view of the trinity does not confound the persons or divide the essence.\nIf God is complex, then the persons are parts and the godhead is divided, thus there is no trinity, only tritheism.\nThe trinity is a mystery, I'll grant, but it is not a contradiction (because the being of God is spoken only analogically, not univocally).\nA mystery is something that we cannot understand because it exceeds our graps as finite beings. (i.e., the Trinity) A contradiction is something that we cannot understand because it is impossible (i.e., A square circle or the logical proposition 'A and not-A').\nA contradiction is always false because it is impossible for the same thing to be both true and false in the same respect at the same time. [One can speak paradoxically through contradictions, (i.e. \"The child is the father of the man\") but this is not a true logical contradiction because there is no univocity. Poetic flourishes such as this are not actually proposing the truth of a contradiction.]\nThe trinity is not a contradiction in the way that saying \"There are three Gods and only one God\" or \"Jesus is God and not-God\" would be.\nIf Barth is simultaneously affirming that\n(1) God is fully known, and\n(2) God is not fully known\nat the same time and in the same respect, then he has wandered into good ol' fashioned contradiction.\nIf Barth is claiming that God is fully known in faith and not-fully known outside of faith, that is a different story. But, I still find the concept of God's being fully present to us in faith immensely problematic. After all, if God were fully present to you, then you would, perforce understand the trinity. If Barth says that the Trinity is a mystery, then it is not fully present. If he says that to the person of faith the trinity is a mystery and not-a-mystery at the same time and in the same respect, then I will suspect that his language has run amok.\nThe claim that God is simple and complex at the same time and in the same respect would fall under the same judgment. I'll agree that God has all perfections, but if this impugns divine simplicity, let's all be Hindus or Hegelians. I don't see a middle way between the two. In other words, your options are (1) pantheism polytheism or (2) pantheistic monothesis in which the historical self-determination of Spirit sublates all oppositions by gathering them into a more inclusive totality. Or (3) the orthodox view of the trinity as a mystery, not a contradiction.\nShane, whether you realize it or not, your position is actually the closest to Schleiermacher's. You and Schleiermacher both have a starting-point that is external to God's self-revelation. Schleiermacher begins with human experience; you begin with rational logic. Experience for Schleiermacher and those in his school dictates how they speak about God, while logic dictates how you speak. In other words, a human construct pre-determines how you are able to define and conceive of God.\nThe point of having God's self-revelation as our starting-point is that regardless of what we think we must say of God, God determines what can properly be said about God. If you are looking for a religion without apparent contradictions and sound logic, Christianity is not it. I need go no further than to say one word: incarnation. You may say this is a mystery, but for every classical philosopher, this would have been clearly a contradiction. The divine cannot become human; the Creator cannot become the creation; the infinite cannot become finite, etc. Truly this is a stumbling block for Jews and foolishness to the Gentiles.\nThe word you are looking for, or perhaps were avoiding, is paradox. The first definition I found is the following: \"a seemingly absurd or self-contradictory statement or proposition that when investigated or explained may prove to be well-founded or true.\" Christianity is a paradoxical faith. What appear to contradictions are actually glorious paradoxes. Not that we revel in irrational absurdities, but that what is seemingly impossible in terms of logic or human experience is actually quite possible with God. For example, it is possible that as the one who judges us, God actually rescues us. Or as the one who loves us, God is the one who judges us. Our human experience does not reveal this, nor does it make much sense. But Jesus Christ embodies this as the free act of the God who loves humanity, but judges humanity upon the cross.\nI took the concept of God's complexity and simplicity from Paul Dafyyd Jones, a recent Ph.D graduate from Harvard University and a brilliant young scholar of Karl Barth. He spoke at the recent Barth Conference here at PTS. He made the distinction between personal and ontological in relation to complexity and simplicity.\nThink of this dialectical relation as another way of speaking about God's being-in-becoming. God is a simple being who is not static or distant from creation but is rather intimately and fully involved within it as the one who becomes and is able to become: able to become human in Jesus Christ and thus able to assume and redeem sinful humanity.\nComplexity simply means intricate or complicated, and if God is indeed infinitely rich in perfections and actions, then complexity is a proper of describing this personal richness. But we are saying the same thing by emphasizing God's ontological simplicity as the one God who is divided within Godself. You think that I am contradicting this, but that is not the case. The paradox here is that while God is simple as the triune God (immanent Trinity), God acts in manifold ways in relation to the creation (economic Trinity). Thus, the distinction I am making is between the immanent and economic Trinity, or God pro se and God pro nobis — which are materially identical even though the distinction is important to make. God is infinitely complex, rich, and manifold in divine attributes as a God who relates to the finitely complex, rich, and manifold cosmos. But God remains infinitely simple and undivided, the God who remains Deus pro nobis in divine constancy.\nWhen Barth speaks of God's being \"fully known\" and \"fully unknown,\" he too is making a kind of immanent-economic distinction. As the economic Trinity who is revealed in divine self-revelation, God is \"fully knowable\" to us in Jesus Christ. But this would be true only if God were only the economic Trinity and thus only identifiable with the immanent, created realm. We know this is not the case. As the immanent Trinity, God is free and sovereign as the eternal Lord over all time and space, and thus God is \"fully unknowable.\" But this would only be true if God was completely unrelated to the creation and never revealed Godself to the world. We know this too is not the case. God has revealed Godself from the early days of Israel up through the present days of the catholic church; but the center of all this is the incarnation of God in Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh.\nBecause God is enfleshed in Jesus, we have in him the locus of God's knowability and unknowability. In faith and by the Holy Spirit, we can recognize that he is the Second Person of the Trinity who came for us and for our salvation — and so God is fully known as the God who creates, elects, reconciles, and redeems. Without faith and without the Holy Spirit, we only see flesh and blood, the man Jesus who is the barrier between us and God. God, in other words, is veiled in human flesh and remains veiled even to faith. God never becomes fully available to any person. Those who recognize God are not granted access to the throneroom. We are simply given God's indirect self-revelation — a true and full revelation, in the sense that we perceive God as God truly is without remainder. We are thus always at the mercy of the One who reveals; we are incapable of determining who God is or what we can know about God.\nIn short, complexity does not impugn simplicity, and simplicity must not be construed so as to escape God's complexity.\nBut there are many more important things about this post than the title. I would really like to discuss the quotes from Barth and the issues associated with God's self-determination.\nI see that I am going to have to write a short little treatise to post on my blog re: logic, analogy and the being of God. (it will be a while, i'm in the midst of finals) At any rate, you are right that they are peripheral concerns to most of the material in your post here.\nI don't actually have much more to comment on at the moment.\nIn my last comment, I wrote: \"But we are saying the same thing by emphasizing God's ontological simplicity as the one God who is divided within Godself.\"\nI intended to say \"...who is NOT divided...\" I hope that wasn't confusing.\nAlso, I recommend reading the chapter from G. K. Chesterton's Orthodoxy entitled \"The Paradoxes of Christianity.\" The whole book is great, but this chapter is one of the best.\nOED gives the meaning of \"paradox\" as:\n\"2. a. An apparently absurd or self-contradictory statement or proposition, or a strongly counter-intuitive one, which investigation, analysis, or explanation may nevertheless prove to be well-founded or true.\"\nA \"contradiction\" is a \"Logical inconsistency or incongruity.\"\nThe trinity is a mystery or paradox if you will, not a contradiction. Because the trinity is actually true.\nIn this forthcoming treatise, I will attempt to show that it is you who are submitting God to the vicious mastery of logical analysis and not I.\nRegarding how God can be simple yet containing within himself all perfections, cf. Summa Theologica, 1a, q.4, a.2.\n--shane \"somehow I am the orthodox one\" wilkins\nI really don't care much about the complexity and simplicity thing. I happen to think it is perfectly fine to speak in such terms, but it changes absolutely nothing materially if I lose those terms altogether.\nThe fact that Thomas is employing Greek philosophy -- focused as it was upon simplicity, oneness, and the absolute -- makes me think that he is liable to emphasizing a simple immanent Being at the cost of attending to the complex economic reality of God."}

{"text": "Fans Are: Excited for another season, although probably a bit over-optimistic and unaware that LSU is not on the way up any more, even if they haven't started their descent.\nExpectations: The Tigers will probably end up having a pretty good season. Four of their five away games are going to be walks in the park, and the fifth, at Tuscaloosa, the Tigers should have no problem getting tooled up for, given the breathless ranting about how Saban somehow screwed LSU by going to Alabama.\nQuestions:\n1. Russell, Bowe, and David are gone... who fills those big shoes?\nThe QB race has been interesting this spring. Coach Miles doesn't seem to have made a decision yet as to who he thinks will start in the season opener. Flynn has done well in Spring practices and most seem to agree that he's got an early lead on Perrilloux. Flynn, however, is no Russell, but neither is Perrilloux so how things will go in the Post-Russell Era is still up in the air. As for fill-ins at wide receiver, Doucet is the only stand out so far and that could pose some problems as LSU hits the meat of the SEC schedule which is thick with secondaries capable of locking down single-receiver passing offenses. That, coupled with Les Miles' near psychotic obsession with running the ball, could cause some offensive difficulties this year.\n2. Of the stable of tailbacks, who gets the starting nod in late August?\nLast year's starter, Keiland Williams, is back again. Competing for his starting job, though, are Charles Scott, Jacob Hester, and a redshirt from last year Richard Murphy. Going out on a limb, here, I wouldn't be surprised to see Hester snatch that starting spot from Williams by the time the Tigers head to Starkville. As far as success goes, LSU lost a few big guys up front, so it'll be interesting to see how the fill-ins do. The O-Line looks good down the road, though, as Miles and company did a good job recruiting at those positions.\n3. Speaking of Les Miles... why isn't he getting the respect he deserves around the SEC?\nOutside of LSU Fans, most of whom have been made True Believers, there's a notion that Les Miles is publishing someone else's ghost-written novel. For the past few seasons he's been coaching Saban's players with Saban's coaching staff, and generally having a pretty good run at it. Some would say, however, that a wet paper bag could've gotten the same results. The most cynical of the critics don't even credit the fairly successful recruiting classes to Miles. This season will go a long way toward earning Miles a reputation among the elite coaches in the SEC or, if things fall apart, confirming the suspicions of the critics that Miles is sitting in front of a player piano and pretending to be a virtuoso. That all said, you can expect this year to be a little more difficult than last year, but the self-destruction that most of Miles' harshest critics have been calling for simply won't materialize.\nReader Comments (Page 1 of 1)\n4-02-2007 @ 12:56PM\nrussnrvr said...\nSome Thoughts on your Post:\n- I would rather the fans be optimistic rather than pessimistic. I wouldn't say it is on the descent yet. Saban had a better record than Miles for just one year. Let's give him chance to mess up another really good opportunity this year first!\n- I don't see Hester beating out Williams, Murphy, Scott, and Broussard for the most carries this year.. He may continue to be a good utility back, but one of the others will rise up to take the lead. I am leaning towards Murphy from what I am hearing.\n-In my estimation, Miles came in wide-eyed and had to grown up on the job. Coaching a big time program takes some gumption. He still has to win the games that are toss ups and learn how to coach on gameday. Losing the opening SEC game the last two years cannot be repeated. We shall see!!\nReply\n4-03-2007 @ 10:36PM\n1LSUFan_ButlerFuel said...\nFirst of all, LSU fans (at least the ones I know) will always be optimistic about the upcoming season this time of year. It doesn't matter if we went 2-10 last season, we will always expect to win a national championship...nothing wrong with that. I disagree with the fact, however, that LSU is on the decline. If this is what you truly believe, then I truly believe that we will surprise you this year. I think that expected starter Matt Flynn will be a more than capable replacement. Now I'm gonna bring you back to the 2003 LSU national championship season. We had virtually the same situation at quarterback with inexperienced senior Matt Mauck, and he certainly didn't win MVP honors in any bowl game (Remember the Peach bowl beat down of Miami by LSU's Matt Flynn in 2005). However, I think you remember the outcome of that season. With a new offensive coordinator this season, and two new quarterbacks who are more than capable of running with the ball, I think you will see some option this season. This adds another dimension to an already potent offense that led the SEC in points per game last year. Secondly, LSU returns most of the starters from a defense that ranked third in the nation last year. Defensive coordinator Bo Pellini has high hopes for a defense that he says will be more experienced and better this season than last. Not to mention our defensive line will be the deepest and most talented in the nation anchored by all-american DT Glen Dorsey. Thirdly, Early Doucet will have a breakout year being the number one option at WR, and he will do special things as a punt returner this year, evidenced by his 64 yard punt return in the Spring game last week in which the returners were ruled down by touch. And with the number one receiving prospect in the nation, Terrance Tolliver, heading to campus this year along with five star recruit Demetrius Byrd to go along with sophomore returning starter Brandon Lafell, the receivers will be more than capable. Also, the tigers also boast one of the best, if not the best, backfield in the country. Expected starter Keiland Williams will be the starter but watch out for redshirt freshman Richard Murphy. He may be the best running back to enroll at LSU since Kevin Faulk. In conclusion, LSU will compete for the national championship this year. With a much more favorable schedule than last year, the tigers are on a mission this year.

How could a mere Matt Flynn as quarterback and a converted fullback in Jacob Hester ever compete with the strength, speed and superior athleticism of Miami!!! Well, then came the game. Hester ran and caught passes. Matt Flynn ran away from the Miami defense showing incredible abilities. Matt hit receivers. Then there was the defense. They did the same thing to Miami that they did to Notre Dame last year in the Super Bowl. I get goose bumps thinking of the total display of ability on both sides of the ball -- speed, commitment, determination and great strength. Now throw in that they honored LSU and its alumni with good sportsmanship and being gentlemen in victory. I could not be prouder of what they have done the last couple of seasons -- especially last year.\nNow we have Matt Flynn, Early Doucet and a host of incredible running backs including Jacob Hester to score points and control the ball in 2007. We have an incredible group of athletes coming in to bolster the team -- as Les Miles pointed out, LSU had more 4 Star & 5 Star athletes in this past years recruiting class than anyone else. Now add what should be the most dominating defense in college football -- anchored by Mr. Dorsey. I will never forget how I felt when I heard he was returning -- I felt his presence was more important to this years success than Mr. Russell. I am excited for what is to come -- and it is hard to go much higher when you finish #3 in the country in the past season.\nI believe we are in for a treat this coming year -- with Matt Flynn becoming an incredible leader for LSU in the mold of Matt Mauck whose feet, arm and natural leadership abilities brought the 2003 National Championship to LSU. I believe that LSU is powerful enough with players of character, athleticism and commitment to bring LSU a national championship in 2008.\nReply\n6-16-2007 @ 6:52PM\nFishhead said...\n1.

My heart is in these places.\nI live in America.\n[[I’m relearning how to live in America.]]\nHow do you live in Suburbia, USA faced with materialism, consumerism and extreme affluence when you’re no longer ignorant to the need and conditions of millions around the world? When you’ve held those bare-bottomed babies who have no parents? When the statistics and facts are real faces and memories that replay in your mind daily?\nThis is the situation that I’ve been given. This is the season I’ve been placed in. This is the challenge that I’ve taken.\n“Once I’m living and serving the Lord overseas, then it’ll be easier to be fully surrendered and focused on Him. Then I won’t be so attached to the things of this world. Then my life will be more honoring to Jesus.”\nIt’s been easy for me to think like this. Even find comfort and justification in this. But this is not what I am called to.\nI’m learning how to honor Jesus by how I respond to my circumstances. I’m encouraged that Paul had to learn this-14}.\nI know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need.\nI can do all things through Him who strengthens me. Phil 4:11b-14}.\nThese verses have been pure gold to me in this season.\nWe can see from them that:\na).There is a secret to living in both abundance and in need-->It's contentment.\nb)Paul had to learn how to be content; it doesn’t just come natural.\nc). Paul had to live this theology out practically just as we do. He had been financially well off, and he had been financially needy. In both situations, he learned how to honor the Lord.\nd) Learning how to correctly face “plenty” is just as important as responding correctly in our need.\ne) Neither financial circumstance was more “holy” or “spiritual” than the other.\nAnd finally, we see from Philippians 4:13, that Paul learned and lived these things by the strength of the Lord.\nSadly, we’ve taken this verse way out of context. And honestly, prior to studying this, I wouldn’t have been able to tell you off hand which verses came before Phil. 4:13 or the context that it’s in. “Many people take this verse out of context and use it to reinforce a “triumphalist” or “super-Christian” mentality, instead of seeing that the strength of Christ in Paul’s life was manifest in his ability to be content”, in abundance and in need.\nIt is possible to honor the Lord with our money. To not have it be our focus or even our concern. To not view it as our own but as the Lord’s. It possible to live detached from it, to truly only steward it.\n{Labor not to be rich… Proverbs 23:4a}\n{Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy… 1 Timothy 1:16}\n{The love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things…1Timothy 6:10-11a}\n{No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money. Matthew 6:24}\n{For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.\nAnd having food and clothing let us be therewith content. 1 Timothy 6:7-8}\nIt is possible to keep ourselves from idols (1 John 5:21). It is possible to follow His Word and not the media. It is possible to not compromise. It is possible to really live as one in this world but not of it, as one merely passing through. It is possible to not always “need” something more. It is possible to be content. It is possible to not be distracted by these temporary riches, affections and comforts. It is possible to rely on Him and turn to Him and trust in Him, and not our resources. It is possible to be detached from “the American dream”.\nHe will teach us, He will strengthen us.\n-\n-\nKelsey\nTuesday, March 13, 2012\nthe day i met you.\ni"}

{"text": "Romance, YA, Fiction and Fantasy Novel Reviews, Nonsensical Rants, and My Own Writing Adventures\nThursday, October 08, 2015\n\"Starship Troopers,\" by Robert A. Heinlein\nBut I was worried. Yes, Heinlein was part of the Golden Age of Science Fiction, but this novel was released in 1959 and I thought it would be dated. I'd overheard discussions about his allegedly stilted language and stiff characters (especially the female ones). It certainly didn't help that certain rabidly conservative groups in the sci-fi community revered this novel for being \"simple\" sci-fi that focused on action rather than \"agenda.\"\nI opened this book with such lowered expectations, it shouldn't be a surprise that Starship Troopers overcame each one of them easily.\nThis book was nothing but surprises - the vast majority of them pleasant.\nThe novel follows the military career of Juan \"Johnnie\" Rico from the point when he joins the Terran Federation's Mobile Infantry (MI) in the 22nd century. Johnnie joins the army on little more than a whim and discovers the military is far tougher than he gave it credit for - especially once war breaks out with the Bugs, a race of super intelligent insects operating under a hive mind. However, over the course of the book, Johnnie not only falls in love with the job, but the man it's turned him into.\nMy first busted preconception about this book was that it would be simple and apolitical. WRONG. This book is all about politics. In the future, only Citizens (people who have successfully completed a term of military service) are allowed to vote or participate in politics. You can volunteer for the military whenever you want, and the military has to accept you (regardless of sex, age, race, religion, or ability), but then it's up to you to sweat and toil and earn your franchise. If you wash out or resign, you don't get another chance. Ever.\nSure, Heinlein is conservative, and this set-up would do nicely as the dystopia for one of today's YA novels, but you can definitely understand his reasoning - the only people who have the right to vote for society are the ones who've volunteered to put society's needs ahead of their own. The contrast between Johnnie's lifestyle before joining the military with his life after neatly outlines the novel's definition of power: Johnnie was born to a wealthy, privileged Filipino family but had no voting rights and a father who'd already picked out a career for him. He gains his power after joining the military - by choosing his own path and rising on his own merits. In this case, the power to vote is a symbol of Johnnie's autonomy.\nI was also pleasantly surprised by the novel's diversity - at least comparatively, for the time period it was published in - with a Filipino hero and a cast that includes hispanic, African-American, and Japanese characters. That being said - while women are apparently \"superior pilots\" in the future, we only see, like, two of them, and then very briefly.\nDid I agree with all the politics? Um, nope. There's a cringe-inducing chapter devoted almost entirely to the Usefulness of Corporal Punishment and how Psychology is Ruining Kids Today that made me want to shout at the teenagers to get off my lawn. And this novel takes a very cynical view of human existence that suggests that morality is a disguised survival instinct and that humans are innately savage, violent monsters.\nPreconception number two: this would be an action book. Wrong again - you can blame this one on the terrrrrrrible film adaptation. There's maybe a handful of action scenes, and they're all brief. Heinlein's preferred style is to introduce the reader to a fight and then skip ahead to focus on who won, because the action isn't what's really important. Most of the novel is dedicated to military life in between combat - the training, the technology, the relationships and the social structure. Heinlein's take on the military is an extremely positive and compassionate one. The novel toes a fine line between being pro-military and being pro-war, but it manages that balance pretty well.\nI went in expecting a stilted, vaguely-out-of-touch story and wound up sucked into a compulsively-readable, thought-provoking political sci-fi work. I should have known better - they don't give labels like \"Golden Age of Sci-Fi\" to chimps.\nA-\nPosted by AnimeJune at Thursday, October 08, 2015\nLabels: A- Reviews, science fiction"}
{"text": "Speaking hypothetically in Perl 6\nSo, arrays and hashes are considered central enough in Perl that they each have their own sigil, as well as a dedicated circumfix constructor:\nType Sigil Circumfix ==== ===== ========= Array @ [ ] Hash % { }\nApart from those, we consider scalars quite important, but they're really \"containers of anything\", including (references to) arrays and hashes. The\n$ sigil simply means \"untyped\". Because of this, there's not really a circumfix constructor.\nType Sigil Circumfix ==== ===== ========= Scalar $ N/A Array @ [ ] Hash % { }\nBut there's one more sigil; one which has had to fight a bit more for its place in the food chain... but this is the one that really makes the hackers over at \"Lambda the Ultimate\" smile. Introducing the\n& sigil:\nType Sigil Circumfix ==== ===== ========= Scalar $ N/A Array @ [ ] Hash % { } Block & { }\nOk, hold on a minute.\nBlock? A block of what?\nSo here's the really neat thing. In many situations in perfectly normal, sane programming, we end up with wanting to execute some code, just not right now. Just as we'd reach for an array or a hash when we want to collect some structured data for later, we can reach for this block thingy when we want to collect some executable code for later.\nIf you haven't done this, I can see how it all sounds terribly esoteric, even pointless. You'd go \"Just wait until later, and run the code at that point rather than passing around un-run code!\", and if a\nBlock was only what I've told you so far, I'd agree with you.\nBut it's more. A\nBlock is automatically a closure — and this is where people who've grokked this normally use big words (like \"it closes over its lexical environment!\") and the eyes of people who are struggling to understand glaze over. So I'll go slow.\nTake a look at the\nCounter class in this blog post. Hm, I'll reproduce it here for you:\nclass LazyIterator { has $!it; method get() { $!it(); } } class Counter is LazyIterator { method new(Int $start) { my $count = $start; self.bless(, :it({ $count++ })); } }\nThe\nnew method contains code both to initialize and to increase\n$count, but only the initialization code (\nmy $count = $start;) is run. The increasing code (\n{ $count++ }) is inside a\nBlock, and thus protected from immediate execution. Instead, it's just stored away in the private attribute\n$!it (for \"iterator\").\nWhen is\n$counter actually increased? Well, each time we call the\nLazyIterator.get method, it executes the\nBlock stored in the\n$!it. This all seems perfectly obvious, until one starts to think about how magical it actually is. It increases... what, again?\n$counter? Which is... where, exactly? In the lexical scope of the\nCounter.new method, which finished ages ago, and which by the way is in a subclass that wasn't even defined when we defined\nLazyIterator.get!!!\nFor that to even have a chance at working, the\nBlock in\n$!it must \"save away\"\n$counter from the lexical scope of the\nCounter.new method, enough for it to avoid being eaten by an evil garbage collector, etc. This is totally magical! It's as if you opened an empty bottle in orbit around Neptune to let some darkness in, and then whenever you opened the bottle again, no matter where you were, you'd get the same Neptune darkness from within the bottle.\nOr like me coming to visit you, but instead of leaving my phone number, I activate one half of an entangled-pair portal in your living room and take the other half with me. Afterwards, I can just scribble whatever I want on my half, and you'd see it instantaneously appear in the other half in your living room. That's how insanely great closures are.\nOne of the very first blog posts I wrote here at use.perl.org was about that magical ability of closures to hold on to the environment in which they were created. Be sure to check out the diagram that goes with it, which explains how closures can be used to decouple parts of a large object-oriented system.\nIn fact, closures — or lambda expressions, same thing — are so general that they have been shown to be universal. That is, anything that a computer algorithm can do, lambda expressions can do, too. (In fact, Alonzo Church developed lambda calculus and used it to prove the Halting Problem undecidable in April 1936, only one month before Alan Turing showed the same with his gedanken state machine. In an addendum published that autumn, Turing shows that lambda calculus and his machine are equal in power.)\nBy the way, did you notice in the table at the start of the post that both hashes and blocks use the same circumfix constructor,\n{ }? How will you know when you've got a hash and when you've got a block of code?\nS04 explains and gives plenty of examples.\n$hash = { }; $hash = { %stuff }; $hash = { \"a\" => 1 }; $hash = { \"a\" => 1, $b, $c, %stuff, @nonsense }; $code = { %_ }; # use of %_ $code = { \"a\" => $_ }; # use of $_ $code = { \"a\" => 1, $b, $c, %stuff, @_ }; # use of @_ $code = { ; }; $code = { @stuff }; $code = { \"a\", 1 }; $code = { \"a\" => 1, $b, $c ==> print };\nBriefly, the code block will degenerate to a hash if it's empty or contains only a comma-separated list starting with either a pair or a\n%-sigil variable, and if it doesn't make use of any parameters. You can confirm that this covers all the cases above.\nThat might seem like a slightly arbitrary way of deciding, but it's actually the result of a fair bit of back-and-forth in the spec about when something is a closure and when it's a hash — and this spec iteration feels like a keeper. The previous ones led people into tricky situations where they supplied what they thought was a closure to a\nmap, but it turned out to evaluate to a hash, and the multi dispatch to\nmap failed. That doesn't seem to happen with the current spec, which is a good sign.\nWhat are some common functions that accept blocks as arguments? I've already mentioned\nmap, but even though the\nmap/\ngrep/\nsort triad has that slightly built-in feel, so they're not really a good example.\nHere's one that's a good example:\n$sentence = 'eye drops off shelf'; $newspaper-heading = $sentence.subst(/ \\S+ /, { $/.ucfirst }, :global); say $newspaper-heading; # Eye Drops Off Shelf\nThe vital part is the\n{ $/.ucfirst } block. Why do we need to put that part in a block? Because if we didn't, it'd get executed immediately, as in before the\n.subst call was even made. The\n{ } block constructor creates a protective shell of delayed action (same principle as with orally administered pills, really), and the\nsubstr method can then invoke the block when the time is right — i.e. after a match has been found. Newcomers on\n#perl6 often leave out the curlies, thinking that it'll magically work anyway.\nIf you're with me so far, you're ready for the next \"look ma, no curlies!\" stage.\nWe like closures so much (as language designers) that we want to build them into a lot of places. There are a number of places when we want to build them in so much that we even decide to lose the\n{ } circumfix! If that sounds crazy, just look at these perfectly harmless examples:\nif !@food \|\| @food[0].lc eq 'marmite' { say \"You either have no food or just marmite!\"; } class VeryImportantObject { has $!creation-time = time(); } .flip.say for lines();\nIn all of the above cases, it's as if invisible\n{ } curlies have been inserted around the emboldened parts for us, and then evaluated only if/when the time was right. Closures without curlies are sometimes referred to as \"thunks\".\n(Why don't we special-case the second argument of\nStr.subst in the same way? Well, we certainly could, but it'd be kind of unfair to all other user-defined methods which don't automatically get the same special treatment. Somehow it's more OK to thunk language constructs like the\ninfix:<\|\|> operator, or\nhas, or statement-modifying\nfor, than it is to thunk the second argument in some method somewhere. But it's a perfect gotcha for static analysis to catch.)\nBut Perl 6 also gives you, the programmer, a way to omit the curlies if you just want to create a little one-off closure somewhere. It's provided through the ubiquitous \"whatever\" star, after which Rakudo Star was named.\nThe whatever star represents a curious bit of spec development, kind of a little idea that seemed to get a life of its own after a while and spread everywhere, like gremlins. It all started when the old \"index from the end\" syntax from Perl 5 was re-considered:\n@a[ -1] # getting the last element in Perl 5 @a[-1] # getting the last element in Perl 6\nWhy was this change made? S09 sums it up:\nThe Perl 6 semantics avoids indexing discontinuities (a source of subtle runtime errors), and provides ordinal access in both directions at both ends of the array.\nWhen this feature was finally implemented in Rakudo, instead of treating the\n* - 1 like a syntactic oddity that's only allowed to occur inside array indexings, they generalized the concept so that\n* - 1 means\n{ $_ - 1 }. (Note the surrounding block curlies.) This was considered nifty and trickled back into the spec. So now you can use all of the following forms to mean the same thing:\n{ $_ - 1 } # means \"something minus one\" -> $_ { $_ - 1 } # explicit lambda mention of $_ -> $a { $a - 1 } # change the name of the param { $^a - 1 } # \"self-declaring\" param * - 1 # note the lack of curlies\nI haven't mentioned the \"self-declaring\" type of parameter so far. They're very nice, especially in small blocks where an explicit signature would give the block too much of a front weight. The spectical name for those are \"placeholder variables\", because they make a space for themselves in the parameter list, I guess. The place they get is their rank in an ascending string sort, by the way. You can't have both an explicit signature and placeholder variables for the same block — it's an either-or thing.\n(Also, the only form which isn't exactly identical in the list above, is the first one, which actually translates to\n-> $_? { $_ - 1 }. That is, the\n$_ is optional, and you can call the block with 0 arguments. I don't remember the rationale for this, nor whether I've ever benefitted from it.)\nA recent spec change generalized the whatever star so that if two or more occur in the same expression, they get assigned successive parameter slots.\n* + * translates into\n{ $^a + $^b }, for example. So they're really starting to look a bit like \"anonymous placeholder variables\".\nNow for the actual impetus for this post: in August 2000, almost ten years ago, Damian Conway made an RFC which anticipated a lot of the features outlined in this post. And it does this while suggesting syntax which is consistently less mnemonic and less maintainable than what we eventually ended up with. (Not the fault of Damian-from-ten-years-ago, of course. I'm pretty sure he's been instrumental in guiding us to many of the solutions we have today.)\nHere's a quick summary of the key points of the RFC, and the modern Perl 6 responses:\n- The RFC suggests that one common use case for the \"higher-order functions\" (as it calls the closures) is in case statements with comparison ops in them, such as\ncase ^_ < 10 { return 'milk' }. Note that the whatever star nicely fills this niche:\nwhen * < 10 { return 'milk' }.\n- Much of the rest of the RFC seems to be handled well today with either lambda signatures or placeholder variables (the\n$^aones).\n$check = ^cylinder_vol == ^radius*2 ^height or die ^last_words;could today be written\n$check = -> $cylinder_vol, $radius, $height, $last_words { $radius ** 2 * $height or die $last_words };. I hesitate to put that example in placeholder-variable form, because they're too many and the alphabetical mess would be too hard to maintain, even once.\n- The model we ended up with doesn't do automatic currying, like in the RFC. We do, however, have the extremely nice method\n.assumingon all\nCodeobjects (including\nBlock), which gives you back a new\nCodeobject with one or more parameters pre-set.\n- Generally, the modern variants lean towards either explicit curlies or a whatever star to tell you that something mildly magical is going on. With the syntax proposed in the RFC, I suspect I'd be constantly less-than-certain about where implicit blocks ended.\nIn Apocalypse 6 the RFC was accepted with a \"c\" rating (that's for \"major caveats\"). I think that's accurate, because the spirit of the RFC definitely lives on, but the syntax of it all turned out much, much better. I guess that's the point of having the role of Language Designer centralized to one person.\nHaving exhausted the things I have to say about this topic, I'll stop here and see if I can get some closure myself. 哈哈"}

In 2014, the demolished remains of a stone building in the castle’s outer close were found, and in 2015 archaeologists hope to shed more light on the development of these structures, and investigate the offensive ditch from the 1650/1 siege.\nVisitors are being offered the chance to see archaeology close-up with guided tours of the dig, and there is also the opportunity to handle and examine excavated artefacts and chat with the archaeologists. The team will be on site until 14 September and are happy to explain their latest discoveries, which all add to knowledge of everyday life in one of the most important castle sites surviving in the British Isles. On Friday 11th September, the Historic Scotland Conservation team will also offer a special Insight Tour of the castle, explaining how the current archaeological dig is informing the conservation and maintenance of Tantallon Castle. During the weekend of 12-13 September, visitors to Tantallon Castle will be treated to a special event where historical re-enactors bring the work of the archaeologists to life. Tantallon Uncovered will feature a 17th century soldiers’ camp and weaponry demonstrations, as well as the chance to see the archaeologists in action. Visitors can see the context of the finds as they hear about daily life for covenanting soldiers, take in weaponry demonstrations and explore the soldiers’ camp..”\nLorna Ewan, Head of Visitor Experience at Historic Scotland, added, “part of the Dig It! 2015 programme and East Lothian’s Archaeology fortnight, the dig and Tantallon Uncovered event will offer visitors the opportunity to see history brought to life in front of them, at the same time as archaeologists uncover more of it. We are really excited to be able to combine living history with archaeology in this way, giving people the chance to experience different aspects of the castle’s history.”\nFree to Historic Scotland Members, Tantallon Uncovered will take place at Tantallon Castle from 12 – 4pm on 12 and 13 September. The event is included in admission to the castle."}

As I’m in college and don’t get the chance to decorate either my student apartment or my family home, I’m going to use Tuesdays as an excuse to drool over Christmas house decor!\nToday I am going to have a look at outdoor decorations. At home we don’t really do up the garden, more the front of the house so these are some cute decorations I’d love to include.\nI love the feeling of walking under the arches at the Christmas market in the city. I think it’s something so simple, yet makes a big impact. Similarly the arch around the door is beautiful and definitely something I could see done up at my house.\nGarden lights are cute any day of the year but I think they’re even nicer when they’re more festive. The trail of lights up to a front door or even these adorable mini Christmas trees are a fantastic addition to any garden at Christmas.\nLastly, I know everyone is crazy about how their Christmas trees look but I am in love with bare trees. Not particularly as a replacement for the traditional fir but in general. This is one the reasons that Autumn is my favourite season. I think it’s a good idea to make the best of what you have and if you have a few bare trees in the garden, why not throw a few white lights on them?\nI’m so disappointed that I can’t be at home to do the decorating this Christmas so I think I’m really going to enjoy writing the Tuesday blog posts! I hope you enjoyed this post 🙂\nTweet me @Samantha_Events and let me know you’re favourite thing about Christmas or leave a comment down below!"}

He said:\n“In the past we have seen that during the month of Muharram, in Pakistan and in certain other Muslim countries great tensions have erupted between Sunnis, Shias and other Muslim sects. These tensions have led to the killing of innocent people, attacks on religious processions and other terrorist activities. May God Almighty protect all people from such incidents.”\nHis Holiness stated that he hoped that the Muslim world would come to realise the true purpose of the martyrdom of Hadhrat Imam Hussain.[1] His martyrdom came at a time when morality was failing, personal interests were superseding the wider interests of society and worldly matters were taking precedence over religion. Due to these factors cruelties exceeded all bounds. These mistakes, he said, were being repeated in today’s world. Standards of morality and tolerance were falling and as a result members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat were routinely persecuted and martyred by other Muslims, particularly in Pakistan.\nHis Holiness concluded by praying:\n“May the Muslim world understand the true purpose of the martyrdom of Hadhrat Imam Hussain and may they accept the Messiah of this age, Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian.”\n[1] Hadhrat Imam Hussain, grandchild of the Holy Prophet of Islam. Martyred in Karbala, Iraq on 10th Muharram, 61 AH"}

{"text": "Columbus Square\nHistory sank, this park in 1910, and the Board of Aldermen named it Columbus Square in 1930. Angelo Racioppi created the bronze statue with funds from the New York City Works Progress Administration Art Project. It depicts a youthful Columbus at the helm of a ship, and it is set on an angular cast stone base suggestive of a boat prow. Dedicated on October 12, 1941, the artwork provoked a public feud between Queens Borough President George U. Harvey and Parks Commissioner Robert Moses (1888-1981).\nAt a May 1941 meeting of the Board of Estimate in which plans for the statue were discussed, Harvey referred to Moses as an “appointed official who couldn’t be elected as dogcatcher.” Moses responded in a letter, “I have no thought of running against you for dogcatcher. The job is right up your alley.” Later, Moses wrote, “We don’t think the statue looks like anything we have read about Columbus, or that as a piece of symbolism it represents anything associated with Columbus. On the other hand, just as a piece of sculpture without any particular significance, it is not objectionable.” Harvey replied, “Anything Moses doesn’t design himself, he thinks is no good.”\nThis statue of Columbus is one of five located in New York City parks; the others are in Central Park and Columbus Circle, Manhattan, Columbus Park, Brooklyn, and D’Auria Murphy Park in the Bronx. The park and monument are often the focal point of the local Columbus Day parade and attendant festivities.\nChristopher Columbus Details\n- Sculptor: Angelo Racioppi\n- Description: Standing figure (over life size) on pedestal, on plinth\n- Materials: Figure--bronze; Pedestal and plinth--cast stone\n- Dimensions: Figure H: 7'6\" W: 4' D: 4'\n- Cast: 1941\n- Dedicated: October 12, 1941\n- Donor: New York City Works Progress Administration art project\n- Inscription: COLUMBUS / 1451-150 Square\nColumbus Square Weather\n- Wed\n85°F\n- Thu\n81°F\n- Fri\n79°F\n- Sat\n76°F"}
{"text": "- 2018 (42)\n- September (2)\n- August (4)\n- July (2)\n- June (4)\n- May (9)\n- April (10)\n- March (7)\n- February (4)\nBlog Archive\nMarch 20, 2018\nHave I Been Forgotten?\nTake a moment and imagine with us…\nYou’ve been doing all the right things but all the wrong things are happening. You ended up in a bad place, you did the right thing, ended up in a worse place. You know God is with you so you continue to do what you know is right in the eyes of God. You persevere and act selflessly and serve those in just as poor position as you if not worse and you see them to go on to a great place. You’re excited!\nThis person is doing great thing and you are excited for them. On top of that they’ve given their word to help you in your distress because you were there for them in theirs… but then something hard happens…\nThey forget about you.\nWhy does this hurt so badly?\nOne could take comfort in knowing that even the great Joseph suffered from similar pain. In Genesis 40 we continue the narrative of Joseph’s life. While in prison he comes across two men who are in despair. While talking with them he discovers that they both have had dreams. Joseph takes a moment to interpret their dreams for them. To one man he gives encouragement, to another…not so much encouragement. All he asks is one thing…\n\nIn this moment Joseph allows his humanity to come forth. He asks for the one thing that everyone else asks for… \"Remember me\". In verse 15 you can almost sense the brokenness of his heart seeping through into the rhythm of his voice. Yes in this moment he’s asking a man of flesh and blood to remember him, but you can almost sense that in the spirit, he’s crying out to God asking…\nSometime later the dreams come true. You can imagine the joy in Joseph’s heart because the one man has promised to remember him. Joseph’s selflessness and his perseverance are about to pay off! Once again he’ll be a free man! Joseph waits with anticipation.\nAn hour goes by, nothing. Well this newly freed man needs a moment to get past his own excitement so that he can think clearly. Joseph understands. 3 hours go by, nothing. I mean, it’s a big process, he’s probably doing paper work and reconnecting with his friends and family. Joseph understands. A day goes by, nothing. The guy must be waiting for the right moment to approach Pharaoh. It’s pretty intimidating talking to someone of importance, on top of that it has to be done correctly and in good timing, Joseph understands.\nDays turns into weeks, weeks into months… nothing. What has happened?\n“Yet the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.”\nGenesis 40:23\nWhy does this hurt so much? The problem that Joseph ran into and that we all run into, is we tend to ascribe the faithfulness of God to man. Joseph wasn’t putting his trust in God, but in a man. When that man forgot Joseph, when that person in your life forgot about you; it felt as though God Himself had forgotten about him/you.\nWe cannot make the mistake of confusing God with the people in our life. Man is flawed. We forget things, we become overwhelmed, we have moments of weakness. Things happen. But God is faithful, flawless, and has no weakness. He will not forget you.\n“ teaching them [people who come to Christ] to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”\nMatthew 28:20\nGod’s timing may not be your timing, but what He promises will come to pass. He has not forgotten you, He is with you and will always be with you, you just need to put your trust in Him.\nRecently I heard a story about a man who was going through a hard time. As he walked through the woods during a time of meditation and fasting he cried out to God asking for a sign, a rock in the shape of a heart. During that walk he never found the rock. He went home thinking God had forgotten him.\nA short time later his bride went out for a walk in the woods for a time of meditation and fasting. While out she stumbled upon a rock in the shape of a heart and felt the Lord tell her to give that rock to her husband. She never knew that her husband had asked for such a thing, but when she came home and presented it to her husband, something beautiful happened.\nHer husband was encouraged and reminded that God had not forgotten him. He was reminded that God’s timing is not our own.\nChallenge of the Week:\nTake time to remind yourself of God’s faithfulness. Take out your journal and write about a time that you’ve been forgotten and how God showed you He was still there."}

{"text": "Catherine D. Bertram's Settlements & Verdicts\nThe following are some of Ms. Bertram's recent settlements and verdicts:\nTo view Ms. Bertram's profile, click here.\n- A $4.2 million confidential settlement for a child who suffered severe brain damage, seizures and cerebral palsy following his delivery at a hospital in the Maryland suburbs. This settlement is very siginificant in light of Maryland's arbitrary and wholly insufficient cap on pain and suffering damages of $590,000.00. The defendants in this case included the physician group responsible for the mother's labor and delivery, who employed the physician who mismanaged the mother's delivery and failed to transfer the mother to a hospital with a more specialized nursery even though they knew the baby in the breech position was at a higher risk for complications after delivery. Another responsible defendant was the neonatology group who employed the neonatologist who failed to provide the baby with appropriate emergency care after delivery and failed to transfer the baby to a specialized hospital as soon as the baby was stabilized which would have prevented some of the brain damage. The Hospital was also named and contributed to the settlement.\n- A $2.7 million confidential settlement for a patient and his familiy against a local hospital after it was determined that the hospital did not have defibrillator paddles in their operating room when the patient was taken to the operating room for an exploratory procedure after his open heart surgery. As a result, the patent's heart stopped beating and his brain was deprived of oxygen for an extended period. He sustained significant brain damage and remained in a coma, never able to communicate again with his wife and six year old daughter.\n- A $2.8 million confidential settlement for a wife and her children after their father died when the hospital failed to diagnose his stroke symptoms in the emergency department.\n- A $750,000 confidential settlement for a local man who suffered a stroke during a simple cervical surgery at a local area hospital. The surgeon failed to protect the patient's vertebral artery during surgery which resulted in a significant brain stem stroke. The hospital staff then failed to appreciate the signs and symptoms of the stroke and allowed the stroke to continue to progress without any intervention for more than 24 hours afer the surgery. Luckily, this patient has fought his way back and was able to return to work.\n- A confidential settlement for the parents of a newly born infant who died in the hospital right after birth when he was given a deadly dose of medication that was mixed improperly by the pharmacy and the error was not caught by the hospital staff.\n- A confidential settlement for a cancer patient against a local hospital when they punctured his bowel while inserting a medical device and then failed to detect the error resulting in severe pain and suffering for the patient during the final months of his life."}
{"text": "Southern Pipe And Supply are a Plumber’s firm consisting of experts based here in Madison Mississippi. We have gladly supported the local Madison neighborhood for quite some time and really look forward towards a long and also successful collaboration.\nIf you are planning on remodeling or building a new residence plumbing is a crucial element of construction. Your entire construction process would end if you didn’t have it. It is possible to use plumbing for septic tank pumping and drainage as well as other reasons. Thus, you need to understand what a plumber does so that you do not make the mistake of hiring a plumber for a project that you do not need. Knowing the fundamentals of what plumbers do will help you determine if you need one.\nIt is important to first understand how a plumber can aid you in tackling a plumbing issue. The cost of plumbers ranges from $ 45 to hundreds of dollars, based on the severity of damage and the source of the issue. On average, an average plumbing repair bill can range from $ 316 up to $773 and an average repair cost ranging between $177 and over 1,000 dollars. Plumbers can also charge extra for emergency or after hours work, extra supplies needed or travel time. All of these factors could add to the amount charged, especially in the event that there is more than one person involved in the plumbing problem.\nMost common repairs are to fix blocked toilets and toilet clogs. Although the majority of plumbers can handle the repairs mentioned above however, it is recommended for toilets that are not working or leaking to call an expert. Installation of new pipes or toilets is another common problem that plumbers are able to fix. These include issues with the toilet seat, the height of the bowl, seat height of the toilet, as well as the installation of other accessories like spouts and drains. Most plumbers will suggest an plumber over a handyman when it comes to toilet installation due to the safety issues.\nPlumbing issues can result in expensive repairs, especially when they affect the plumbing of structural systems like ceilings, floors and walls. Although most structural damage must be repaired, there are some solutions to fix structural issues. Sealants and other additives can be purchased in local hardware stores as well as plumbing supply stores. Plumbing professionals will also suggest using non-corrosive cleaners to stop any further damage from occurring. This includes leaks, burst pipes and pipe bursts.\nLeakage in underground water pipes is a plumbing issue plumbers often address. Before a plumber can repair them, the pipes need to be brought up to surface by using caulk or insulation. In some instances the plumber may suggest digging a basement to repair a leaky pipe, but this method is considered risky since it requires access to the space under the house and can be hazardous for both workers and pets. It is more secure to return the water heater at the shop or fix the pipe yourself.\nLeaky pipes and pipe bursts can cause severe damage to structures. It is crucial to get a plumber to check any burst, cracked, or slow-flowing pipes. If you’ve discovered cracks in your foundation or walls the first step is likely to be placing waterproofing layers underneath your soil as well as the soil around your home. When the plumbers return your house to its original state they’ll also recommend preventative maintenance methods, including appropriate sealant application around drains and pipes in order to avoid water damage and also to prevent future water damage.\nIf you require a specialist Plumber that you can rely on, contact us.141B Enterprise Dr, Madison, MS 39110, United States\nClaim listing is the best way to manage and protect your business."}

Red state, blue state\nArtist Jonathan Horowitz has split the Hammer Museum's lobby gallery down the middle. A blue rug is on one side, a red one on the other. Between the rugs, two televisions hang back-to-back. The one facing the blue rug broadcasts CNN's election coverage, while the one facing the red broadcasts Fox News. President Obama's portrait hangs between the carpets, too, but a Romney portrait will replace it if Obama loses the Nov. 6 election. In addition to regular museum hours, the gallery will stay open during each debate and on Election Night. But last week, during the first debate, the competing TV feeds made it near impossible to hear the candidates and when a visitor went to turn Fox News down, a museum staffer scolded her.

But while Holzer, an artist who works in words she broadcasts on billboards and neon signs, has never come off as comforting, her Twitter impersonator somehow does. \"Humor is a release,\" read a recent tweet, and it seemed sagelike. The same message scrolls across an LED sign on the wall at L&M Arts in Venice right now, written in pulsating neon green. It appears right after the words \"Humanism is obsolete,\" which puts \"humor\" in a darker context.

{"text": "According to FireEye, zero-day attacks are one of the favorite methods attackers use to exploit software flaws within applications. By their very nature, zero-day vulnerabilities are imperfections in the software code that are known to threat actors before vendors and the public. It’s impossible to develop applications that are 100% secure, even with all the tools available for scanning and securing the software code during the development lifecyle. Over the years, threat actors have penetrated billion dollar companies with multimillion dollar security defenses, and the best that Defense-in-Depth has to offer.\nThe victims of zero-day attacks have included Adobe, Microsoft, Google, Symantec, RSA, Northrop Grumman, and many other large enterprises. The Target breach was catastrophic, however, from a technical perspective, there is one breach that was worse, and that was Apple. The security flaw within the iOS code enabled the hackers to join in the conversation during the handshake process, thus making encryption useless. According to many experts, the flaw was due to sloppy programming, that bypassed the entire chain of command at Apple, something that should have been detected immediately. Below is a summary of the 2013 FireEye Survey called “Less Than Zero”.\n2013 FireEye Survey Recap\n- FireEye discovered 11 zero-day vulnerabilities in 2013, more than any other company\n- Vulnerabilities remain unknown to vendors and public on average of 310 days, and sometimes go undiscovered for up to three years\n- Zero day exploits are sold in an established and mature black market\n- Governments are the largest buyers of zero-day exploits according to Reuters\n- Sophisticated, large scale multi-layered security defenses are in many cases, not enough to prevent a zero-day attacks\n- Security tools relying on signatures and reputation databases are futile against zero-day attacks\n- One way to bypass a blacklisted website is to hijack an established website\n- Code morphing (continuously changing) techniques create new malware faster than security defense systems can generate new signatures\n- Operating System level protections are not as effective against zero day threats as in the past\nSome of the most Destructives Zero-day Attacks\n- Operation Aurora: An Internet Explorer vulnerability allowed hackers to plant malware on targeted systems enabling the theft of intellectual property and the compromise of user accounts.

Companies that offer a six benefit plan decrease turnover by 138%, while the average turnover rate for a business with no benefits is 157%. In addition to standard benefits like health insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, and life insurance, employees are also looking for benefits like professional development, retirement, and even better office culture.\nEmployee Turnover prevention - a few important tips\nImproving office culture is probably one of the easiest benefits to add to any company. Add a common area where people can gather to get to know each other better. Ping pong tables are sort of cliche, but having some sort of interactive activity like a ping pong table or pool table can keep people engaged with one another when they take a break. Adding free snacks and drinks and having an office lunch once a week or once a month can also help improve company culture - hunger kills productivity! Team building exercises, such as hiking trips or escape rooms, can help build team rapport.\nLast year a quarter of employees left their jobs, but 77% of those could have been prevented by their employers. Turnover doesn’t have to cost your business; you just have to take a look at the benefits you are offering your employees and see where you can make additions.

{"text": "How to Create and Leverage a Stellar Board of Advisors\nIn 2011, my co-founders and I were looking to get into a market we knew little about: foreign investment. We saw an opportunity in helping Chinese investors find projects in Latin America (my home continent), but we had a few obstacles to overcome: Neither of us knew Chinese or had any experience in international finance.\nOur solution? Get a rock-star board of advisors to provide expertise and connections. While having an advisory is often a necessity for startups (us included), nabbing a stellar team isn't easy.\nFor companies just starting out, here are a few tips on how to get advisors and best practices for leveraging your board:\nNavigate your network. Like I mentioned, finding the right advisors isn't easy. How do you wrangle in top-notch people to work for free?\nIt was frustrating at the beginning. We met with more than 200 investors (we counted) who gave us a lot of great contacts and insights but no advisors.\nRelated: 3 Ways to Find Your Perfect Board of Advisors\nAfter failing to nab advisors on the investor front, we started to navigate our personal networks. This is where we struck gold. Our classmate from our graduate program at Babson College made an introduction to our now most-trusted advisor. If we had just cold-called him, I am sure we would have been ignored.\nTurn to your clients to become possible advisors. If a board member has been on the client side of your industry, he or she is likely to know many of your potential customers, what they care about and give you direct access to them.\nLeverage your current advisors to get new ones. The first time I talked to a top executive of a Latin America investment bank he said, “Call me only when you have something.\" Not exactly the warm “welcome to the industry” greeting I was hoping for. After we got a few Chinese investors on our advisory board, the banker's tune changed.\nNot only did that same banker happily accept a seat on our board, but we also were able to get a former minister of Chile to advise us. While we weren't forking over cash for these advisors, they realized their involvement could provide a great network opportunity for personal needs.\nRelated: How to Build an Advisory Board\nHow do you leverage your current advisory board? It is easier said than done. These people are busy, so don't expect all, if any, to just leap to your rescue when you need to attract more advisors. You really need to nurture their relationships. Here are some takeaways on what worked for us.\n- Give back: Help them out when they could use a hand. Go out of your way to provide assistance in tasks like setting up a meeting with contacts or volunteering to provide advice to another startup in their portfolio. The best part? The more you do it the more they will help you.\n- Name drop: Like it or not, name dropping helps. Starting out you aren't going to have all the answers, so to have an advisor validate your company can open up doors. When speaking to potential advisors, make sure to mention who is on your current board and provide contact information if they would like to follow-up with them.\n- Offer updates: They give you their time, because they believe in you and care about your startup's vision. Provide your board of advisors with, at the very least, a monthly update stating your progress, accomplishments, goals and struggles. That way you let them know their advice is valuable and how they can continue to help build your company. This creates the perfect opportunity to ask for feedback, along with any introductions you may need.\nKeep in mind when building your board, look for advisors that can offer the most to your startup. I recommend getting advisors that worked at companies similar to yours and building a diverse board that is strong in different areas.\nWhat has been your experience in forming a board of advisors? Let us know in the comments below."}

Lean focuses on optimizing the creation of products & services and it applies to every business and every process. While Lean’s roots are in the Toyota Production System (TPS), “a popular misconception is that lean is suited only for manufacturing”.\nThe Principles of Lean may be summarized and mapped to a Transformation perspective (which involves three fundamental business issues) and mapped to the Toyota Way.\n(click figure to enlarge)\nThe Principles of Lean focus on Value (between a Customer and Enterprise), the Value Creation process, the Flow of Value toward the Customer (and throughout the Value Creation process), the Pull of Value by the Customer (and throughout the Value Creation process), and further Perfection of that Value and Value Creation process.\nThe Transformation perspective focuses on a Purpose that joins a Customer’s problem and Enterprise’s prosperity, the Process of achieving that Purpose, and the People engaged in the Process of of achieving that Purpose.\nThe Toyota Way offers insight into the Culture/DNA of Toyota (The Toyota Way 2001; also see here, here, and here), with its two main pillars of Continuous Improvement and Respect for People:\nContinuous Improvement\n- Challenge: We form a long-term vision, meeting challenges with courage and creativity to realize our dreams.\n- Kaizen: We improve our business operations continuously, always driving for innovation and evolution.\n- Genchi Genbutsu: We practice Genchi Genbutsu… go to the source to find the facts to make correct decisions, build consensus and achieve goals at our best speed.\nRespect for People\n- Respect: We respect others, make every effort to understand each other, take responsibility and do our best to build mutual trust.\n- Teamwork: We stimulate personal and professional growth, share the opportunities of development and maximize individual and team performance.\nThe mapping across the Principles of Lean, a Transformation perspective, and the Toyota Way offers insight into the Purposeful Enterprise."}

{"text": ".\nEuro zone governments threw Greece another 11th-hour credit lifeline on Thursday, but they left any measure to alleviate Athens’s debt repayments for future discussions.\nThis was unlikely to convince the ECB, which has repeatedly said it needs to see specific commitments on helping Greece with its mountain of debt and making it sustainable before it will include the country in its 2.3 trillion euro (2.04 trillion pounds)bond-buying programme.\n“It’s a very positive step in the right direction, but you need to see more clarity on debt to include Greece in the PSPP (Public Sector Purchase Programme),” the source said.\nGreek government debt was excluded from the ECB’s purchases when the programme started in early 2015, due to its low credit rating and uncertainty over the Syriza government’s compliance with the conditions of its international bailout programme.\nOn Thursday, euro zone finance ministers said they would be ready to consider extending the maturities and grace periods of their loans to Greece by a range of zero to 15 years. The average maturity now is 30 years.\nThis was enough to win over the International Monetary Fund, which offered some help but would not disburse any of its money yet, awaiting extra details on possible debt relief.\nReporting By Francesco Canepa; Editing by Balazs Koranyi; Editing by Hugh Lawson"}
