The Banaskantha District Kelavani Mandal, Palanpur was established on December 12, 1961 with the aim of promoting the development of education in the District by establishing various educational institutions.
In 1964, the Bansakantha district was awarded Rs. 3 lakh for its performance in the Small Saving Scheme of Gujarat State Government. It was decided to invest this amount in setting up an institution for higher education, and so the Arts College was started in 1964 and Science College in 1965 on rented premises. A Commerce faculty was added in 1979.
With support from the local government bodies and the Palanpuri diamantaires, the construction of the new building began in 1983 and in 1986, the Arts and Commerce faculties shifted followed subsequently (after the laboratory and other facilities were built) by the Science faculty too. Subsequently each of these was established as a separate institution.

If the barren, rocky landscape of Chitrasani has today been converted into beautifully levelled green fields and meadows, with thick tree cover, then the credit must go to the pioneering farsighted efforts and the dedicated work of the team that runs the Balaram Saghan Kshetra Samiti (Balaram Intensive Area Samiti), Chitrasani.
Set up in 1958 by
Mrs. Vimlaben G. G. Mehta
Mr. G.G. Mehta
, the Samiti has focused on agro-industrial and educational activities to transform the backward tribal area, and in training the adivasi youth in the various institutions that it runs on the residential campus at Chitrasani.
The campus houses a Matrughar (orphanage), set up in 1970, a Primary and a Secondary School, a PTC College, and a Women's Rural School. The Samiti also runs a kindergarten, ashramshala, an education and training centre for women, a polytechnic, a centre for nutrition and a library.
Over 650 adivasi and backward class students avail of these facilities.
A special programme to teach Science and Mathematics was started with the help of a grant from UNICEF, under which shibirs and short terms courses are run at the Vignyan Bhavan to introduce students, teachers and officials to new developments in the field.
Agriculture and Gramudyog
Over the years the 20 acre campus has developed into a model farm using a range of modern agricultural techniques and machines, where both the students and the farmers of the surrounding villages are imparted the skills and knowledge necessary for this purpose. The Samiti also runs a model nursery and encourages creative and co-operative methods of agriculture.
Rural workers are also trained in a variety of home-based cottage industries such as ambar charkha weaving, tailoring, toy, flower and essence making, cardboard, chalk and ink manufacturing etc. This helps to empower the women in the local communities.
Vimlaben, an ardent follower of the teachings of Gandhiji and Vinobaji, has done outstanding work in the field of child welfare, education and literature for over 50 years.
The Samiti set up the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust Rural Charitable Dispensary in 1969 which treats over 7000 patients each year.
It also runs the Netrajyot Seva Kendra.

Mr. Arunkumar Ramniklal Mehta
Mr. Bharatbhai Shantilal Shah
Mr. Ketanbhai Bagmalbhai Parikh
Mr. Narendrabhai Jaisinglal Zaveri
It is said that great things have small beginnings, and the story of Lokniketan at Ratanpur, 5 kms from Palanpur, clearly re-emphasises this truism.
Six decades ago, in 1948, Gandhian Mr. Harisinh Chavda, founder trustee of the institution made his first padyatra in the tribal areas of Banaskantha. A decade later, after regular interaction with the people there, he and a few associates from the Sevadal, decided, after an informal conversation on the sandy hills of Balaram, to start a rural educational institute to meet the needs of the people there. After a search for the ideal spot, they settled on Ratanpur in June 1961.
What started on a small scale with just 18 students living and studying in rooms with mud walls and thatched roofs, has grown in the last four and a half decades to a massive campus on which a wide range of educational and social activities are conducted in 36 institutions and catering to over 4000 students.
The institution has had its share of hard times, but was able to overcome these with large donations from sources like Swiss Aid Abroad, Hari Om Ashram (established by H.H. Mota), Mr. Kinsbergen, Governor of Antwerp and numerous Indian diamantaires.
With this backing, Lokniketan, Ratanpur set up a nursery school in 1969, an ashramshala and Kanya Chhatralay in 1970, an Uttar Buniyadi Kanya Vidyalay in 1984, the Lokniketan Mahavidyalay – Bachelor of Rural Studies, with boy's hostel in 1987, a PG institute, the Lokniketan School of Social Work in 2005, the Lokniketan Shikshan Mahavidyalay (for B. Ed training) in 2006 and the Lokniketan Primary Teacher's Training College in 2007.
From the late 70's the institution also began to set up branches in other parts of the district and today has branches in Deesa, Vaav, Deodar, Amirgadh, Dantiwada and Bhabhar talukas.
Besides education, Lokniketan has also been involved in agricultural development through its agricultural centres, cow breeding centres, rural sanitation schemes and a training centre in carpentry and smithy.
The main architects of this educational experiment, Mr. Harisinh Chavda and Mrs. Pushpaben Chavda have not only spread education and knowledge but have also worked to inculcate spiritual, moral and social values in the people whose lives they touch.

It is the nursery that has nurtured some of the brightest stars from today's Palanpur, with its students regularly getting high ranking merit positions (among the top ten in the state) in the Gujarat State Education Board examinations, with about 20% of its students from the Higher Secondary section getting admission into India's leading medical colleges, and with many of its alumni building successful careers in different professions.
That's the Vidyamandir Trust, Palanpur, which today runs 102 institutes spread over 14 campuses, with a highly experienced and knowledgeable staff of 250 teachers catering to the requirements of around 5000 students.
Started in 1948 as Shri Palanpur Shishushala, Balmandir and Education Trust with the aim of providing quality education to the people of Palanpur, the Trust was rechristened with its present name in 2006.
The Trust was founded by Late
Mr. Kantilal Chhotalal Mehta
and was made possible with the generous assistance of three prominent Palanpuris. They were the Late Mrs. Kesarben Amrutlal Raichand Jhaveri who shifted to a smaller house and donated the precious Taleybaug property with a bungalow admeasuring about 3995 sq. yards, the family members of Late Mr. Gaffurchandbhai Chunilal Mehta, who donated Rs.30,000/- and family members of Late Mr. Surajmal Lallubhai Mehta who donated Rs.50,000/-.
On 16th August 1951, the Trust took over the management of Shree Jain Shishushala, a Primary School meant for Jain children established by Late Shree Surajmal Lallubhai Mehta in 1921.
In the early 1960s, Kanubhai appointed
Mr. Suryakant C. Parikh
, an established educationist from Pune as the Principal of Vidyamandir. Suryakantbhai ushered in many innovative changes in Vidyamandir which enhanced the standard of education in Palanpur. His experiment of combining modern and traditional systems of education in a very innovative way, made Vidyamandir in Palanpur famous as a modern educational complex.
Over the years the Trust has grown to cater to virtually every educational need of the local populace. The Trust runs English and Gujarati medium schools from the kindergarten level to the Higher Secondary, and from the 1970s runs its own Teachers' Training Colleges for the pre-primary, primary and secondary school levels. In the same period, hostels were also set up for students studying at the different institutes on the campus.
A special feature of the campus is Mamtamandir – an institute for the physically challenged encompassing all four types of differently-abled students viz visually impaired, orthopaedically handicapped, hearing impaired and mentally challenged. Established in 1963, it provides vocational training to help the students become self-reliant and become a part of the social mainstream. The institute has its own hostel, computer lab, AV theatre, gym and workshops, and currently has about 300 students on its rolls.
Vidyamandir Trust has been at the forefront of change – introducing new technologies and teaching techniques. For example, it first introduced computers to the students in the 1980s and soon after incorporated it into the regular syllabus. Little wonder that today it has as many as six computer labs with over 200 computers all connected to broadband internet.
It was also a pioneer in the concept of integrated education where visually impaired students study alongside normal students in the same classroom. This method, pioneered by Vidyamandir in 1969, was later accepted by educationists all over India.
Another innovation is the education programme for children of rural schools that lack basic infrastructure like a library and science lab. With its mobile lab and library, the Trust ensures that these facilities reach around 8000 students in 56 schools in an equal number of villages. The promising students from these schools are provided special coaching at classes conducted by the Vidyamandir teachers every Sunday in the regular classrooms and labs at the school in Palanpur.
The Trust offers scholarships to the promising students coming from economically weak backgrounds. A total sum of Rs two lakhs is disbursed among deserving students who have completed their HSC each year.
Besides the regular curriculum, the Trust places great emphasis on sports and activities in the field of arts. The Sports Academy of the Trust offers training under expert coaches in 16 different disciplines and many of the students are selected to represent the district / state in state and national level competitions. In the field of performing arts, the Trust runs Kalayatan where students are trained in song, music, dance and drama. The students get the opportunity to perform at functions held by the Trust and also at competitions organized by government and private cultural organizations.
The Trust has other facilities like a state-of-the-art English language lab, separate labs of Physics, Chemistry and Biology, a library that has more than 12,000 books, a 600 seater auditorium and a beautifully landscaped garden spread over 4 acres.
Each of the schools run by the Trust has a strong Parents Association called Shivam, a word derived from 'Shikshak, Vidyarthi, Mata-Pita'. The association works closely with the management in organizing cultural events, sports meets, education tours, and parents are encouraged to be actively involved in the education of their children and interact closely with the management.
The Trust seeks donations for
Construction of rooms in different institutions. Over 60 such rooms need to be constructed and the costs range from Rs 40,000 to Rs 4,00,000. (In each case names as desired by the Donors can be displayed over the rooms.)

Besides the regular curriculum, all the institutes of the Trust lay great stress on extra curricular activities. The students are encouraged to participate in sports, drawing and essay competitions and have won laurels at the district and state level in many such fields. They are also trained for All-India competitive exams like the Gayatri Pariksha, National Talent Search Exam, Secondary Education Scholarship Exam, Sanskrut Brihad Pariksha, and a number of students have won honours in these. Most recently one of the students secured the first rank in the National Language Hindi Entrance Exam.
Students of the secondary and higher secondary schools run by the Trust have been among the top 10 rankers in SSC and HSC in Banaskantha district in 2005, with two of the students topping the district at the SSC exams.

After the country got Independence in 1947, there was an urgent need to spread education to the rural areas, and help develop self-reliance. However due to their poor financial condition, the people living in villages often found it difficult to send their wards to distant large cities for further education.
In such a situation, Mr. Ratilal Tribhuvandas Shah, who had been born and brought up in Malan village in Banaskantha district, and had later moved to Mumbai where he had prospered in the diamond trade, decided to do something to help others from his native village, and established the Shethshri Tribhuvandas Pethabhai High School in Malan in June, 1962. The school provided secondary education to a large number of students from Malan and the nearby villages.
Ratilalkaka was personally involved in the running of the school and on his regular visits to the village, helped the school administration solve many problems. Subsequently, his son, Mr. Satishbhai R. Shah, who was also born in Malan, but had migrated to Mumbai for business purposes, continued his father's work.
Today his family runs the following institutions in the Malan village:
Private Balmandir, Malan
Shethsri Ratilal Tribhuvandas Private Primary School, Malan
Shethsri Tribhuvandas Pethabhai High School, Malan
Higher Secondary School, Malan
Shrimati Leelaben Ratilal Shah - Playground, Malan
These institutions have nearly 240 class rooms that accommodate 1370 students. There are modern computer facilities with around 40 computers and a laboratory with facilities for higher secondary students.

Over 85 years ago, when the Palanpur region was largely a relatively underdeveloped rural society with primitive infrastructure and a low standard of education, some of the leading members of the community came together to set up the L.J.J. Jain Vidyalay to provide boarding and lodging facilities to male students from the neighbouring villages who were studying in the secondary schools.
At that time, female education virtually did not exist. But as families prospered and the need to provide boarding and lodging to male students declined, the institution was converted into a residential home for girls studying in secondary schools.
Today, it provides free boarding and lodging to over 170 girls studying in various grades. They are given free uniforms too.
Over the years the facilities at the institution have also been upgraded, and today the residents stay in newly built, well furnished rooms, and are provided wholesome, nutritious food. A doctor who visits the complex provides medical care. There is also a temple within the complex which the girls visit regularly.
The girls are looked after by Gruhmatas, who provide motherly love and guidance, as well as impart values to make the girls self-confident and train them for future family life.
The institution also runs co-curricular classes to provide extra coaching to the girls, as well as a computer class to provide them with knowledge about computers which has become an important requirement today.

Established as a small institution over six decades ago in the backward areas of Danta taluka, Sanali Ashram has today grown into a large education trust doing exemplary work among the adivasis of the area.
This ashram in the Adabij jungles of Danta taluka was established by Akbharbhai Chavda, who dedicated his life to working for the welfare of the adivasis of this region. At that time there were no proper roads in the area nor were there any means of communication. However, being determined to succeed, Mr. Chavda overcame several hurdles and worked tirelessly for several years in Sanali.
In January 1985, Mrs. Sushilaben and Mr. Ramnikbhai Mehta visited the ashram as part of their programme to distribute uniforms to needy school children. Impressed by the outstanding work being carried out in this most backward region of Banaskatha district by the Ashram, they involved themselves in its activities for the next several years, and remained connected with the institution until their death.
Mrs. Naynaben H. Mehta is now closely involved in running of the Trust.
Over the years the Trust has greatly developed its educational activities. It presently runs: Rajmani Vidyalaya, Rajmani Higher Secondary School, Hostels for Boys and Girls, Balvadis, Ashramshala, Buniyadi Vidyalaya, hostels and vocational training centres, etc.

Our services
Come and join us for Sunday worship at 10.30, either holy communion or morning prayer. Our congregation includes all ages and you would very welcome. We use a mix of traditional hymns and new songs and enjoy a social time with a cup of tea or coffee after the service.
We also offer an all age service once a month. This is a more informal service where all the family is welcome to worship together.
There are also two early morning services of holy communion each month, one at St John's and one at Christ Church Hall. Both are at 8.00. We go quietly through the service without singing which makes a nice, quiet and reflective way to start Sunday.
As well as these we hold a midweek holy communion service at St John's (in the vestry) on the third Wednesday of the month at 10.00. Again this is a quieter service and provides a good opportunity to pause in the middle of the week and remember God's presence. If you have never been before walk along the path at the side of church to the vestry door which is round the back of the church building.
Finally we have prayers to start the week in the prayer room at the vicarage every Monday morning at 8.30. We vary the format but always include some reflection on Scripture as well as prayers for our world, local community, the Church and ourselves.
We are always pleased to welcome new people to any of our services. Please be assured of a warm welcome whichever service you come to.

Failure to adequately assess and control the risks of working near live electricity left a trainee worker with serious burns, says WorkSafe.
Wellington Electricity engaged Northpower to carry out maintenance work on roadside transformers in the Wellington region. Two Northpower employees were working in Karori on 27 May 2014 when a bracket fell onto live contacts causing an electrical short, resulting in a flashover. The victim sustained serious burns that required specialist treatment from the burns unit.
The companies' failures included; a work plan that lacked clear instructions to prompt workers to stop if they encountered increased risks or conditions that were different to what was in the work plan; not shutting off the power before any maintenance work was undertaken at this site; and not documenting their hazard assessments in one place, such as the work plan that was available to the workers.
"Incidents such as this should not happen. Working near live components is a well-known hazard in the industry, and risks should be appropriately managed to protect the workers," says WorkSafe's Chief Inspector, Keith Stewart.

Heather and I are both pretty laid back, so when it comes to meeting couples for the first time, we like to meet in a location that is equally as relaxed. We love our friends over at Chez Alice, (that's our favorite cozy nook) and a meeting there gives me an excuse to indulge in their yummy pastries!
This weekend we ventured away from our cozy cafe and our casual setting to display our photography at the wedding expo in Toms River and I'm so glad we did. We met so many really cool couples planning weddings for all over New Jersey. We also met several great wedding professionals. Ken from Narcissus Florals had some amazing arrangements (love his work!) and if you are looking for something totally unique, check out Favourtique. They do completely custom favors. Their designs were a really cool mix of shabby chic and funky trendy. I think Heather and I spent more time admiring their unique favors than we did at our own table!
We both had a lot of fun at the event. I think we might just do it again!

Basil is not just for adding amazing flavor to your favorite dishes. This herb has major gardening benefits, like attracting bees, enhancing the flavor of other plants, and perhaps most important, repelling pesky mosquitoes. Matteo Grader, a pest control specialist for the London-based pest control company, Panther Pest Control, says gardeners highly recommend planting basil in the garden as a mosquito deterrent, thanks to its strong scent. Grader recommends also growing basil to make a natural mosquito repellent that won't harm your other plants. To do this, take about 100 grams of fresh basil leaves, picked right from your garden. Pour a half-cup of boiling water onto the leaves, and then a half-cup of vodka. Mix thoroughly and add the mixture to a clean spray bottle. Spray your natural, basil-based repellent in your outdoor area to keep mosquitoes at bay. Find out the 10 reasons you're getting bitten by mosquitoes.
Lemon balm

Lemon balm contains a compound called citronellal, which has a very similar effect to the highly-repellent citronella. The lemony scent of lemon balm is also one that mosquitoes don't love, which makes it a perfect addition to your mosquito-repelling yard. Juan J. Rocha, Vice President of DynaTrap, suggests caution when planting lemon balm in the garden, though, because of its invasive properties. It can spread quickly once planted, soon taking over your other plants. It's best to plant this one in pots, keeping them near the areas in your yard where you want to control the mosquito population.

HP announced its Q3 results today, which were slightly below expectations. It also announced that it is in talks to buy Autonomy Corp., and is exploring alternatives to spin off its PC business, because its CEO wants to get out of the low-margin hardware business and get into the high margin software business.
However, that wasn't the most shocking news today. This is what was: HP also announced that "it will discontinue operations for webOS devices, specifically the TouchPad and webOS phones."
If you remember, HP bought Palm last year primarily because it wanted to enter the tablet and smartphone markets. Palm's webOS was one of the few good options except Android and iOS. It even launched a few new phones like the HP Pre 3, and the HP TouchPad, but they failed to make much of an impact, in terms of sales. Reportedly, some retailers were unable to sell almost 90% of their TouchPad stocks even after continued price cuts.
Even so, today's announcement comes as a surprise. webOS was a really promising OS, which was considered by some to be better than both iOS and Android.
HP has stated that it "will continue to explore options to optimize the value of webOS software going forward.", but that just seems to be PR speak for "I don't have a clue about what I plan to do with this."
R.I.P webOS.
PS: Google is venturing into hardware, HP wants to go all-software; it's getting a bit crazy out here, in the tech world.

I am very excited about starting a product line for the freezer section! I would love to partner up with some creative people who have product experience in production and marketing and who want to offer a really high integrity product to the public and want to run a profitable business that does not compromise on sustainability and integrity of the ingredients, product, or operation. The following will be features of this line:
- Plant-based foundations – substantial "starters" to which customers will add fresh ingredients of their choice and cook/bake (according to provided recipes and directions with plenty of latitude for personal choice and creativity).
- Sprouted and/or fermented grains, beans, nuts, seeds
- Organic or better ingredients exclusively except those that aren't available organically, such as salt.
- Whole nutrient dense food-based
- Supportive of a varied diet (using ingredients that are less common in the typical Western diet such as millet, buckwheat, and a variety of legumes; will be gluten free and in some cases grain free for the purpose of diversity rather than avoidance
- Avoiding plastic; using reusable glass jars instead
- Simple frozen batters and add-ins will provide the direction and inspiration to get people into the kitchen, using their CSA shares, and mainly shopping in the produce section armed with knowledge of seasonality
- Cooking education and support
- Promoting mindfulness ideas around creating a more positive impact on the Earth – both food and lifestyle
Skills I'm seeking in a partner(s):
- Production in the food/natural food industry
- Marketing
- Food Science
- Raising Capital

You don't have to be able to dance tango to go to a Milonga in Buenos Aires. And if you are letting a little thing like that hold you back, then you are really missing out on having a local experience. There are plenty of other things you can do at Milongas instead of dance – mainly just sit back and watch, drink a glass of wine, chat with locals, and take photos.
There are no posts. Why not be the first to have your say?

Berners-Lee Strikes A Blow for the Mobile Web
Browsing the Web on a mobile device such as a phone is a mixed experience at best. Some website designers provide stripped-down mobile version of their sites containing just the essential text and navigation elements; others make little or no effort to be mobile-friendly, meaning surfers have to download every annoying logo, photo, and advertisement to get to the good stuff. If you're paying for data by the kilobyte—as most mobile subscribers in Europe still do—that makes browsing on your phone prohibitively expensive, which in turn bodes ill for innovation and entrepreneurship on the mobile Web.
The World Wide Web Consortium is trying to turn the situation around. The Cambridge, MA-based nonprofit organization, which has functioned for 13 years as the Web's central standards body and clearinghouse, is on a big push this week to promulgate a set of Mobile Web Best Practices designed to enhance users' experiences of the Web on cell phones and other mobile devices. Yesterday the consortium launched an early version of its mobileOK Checker, a Web-based service that screens other Web pages for compliance with the best practices. And today, W3C director Tim Berners-Lee warned in a keynote speech at the Mobile Internet World convention in Boston that without a cooperative effort to make Web content browsable on as many different devices as possible, the mobile Web could become a collection of private "walled gardens."
"From the beginning, the W3C has fought the 'best viewed with 800×600 screen' buttons, and any design patterns which disenfranchise different devices," Berners-Lee said in a transcript released prior to his speech. "The Mobile Web Initiative is the work we have to do now…..It is part of a general strategic principle of keeping the information which is such a huge form of capital in the world in as powerful and reusable [a] form as we can, for the future generations and people who don't currently have access."
I talked yesterday with Dominique Hazaël-Massieux, activity lead for W3C's Mobile Web Initiative. He said the point of the group's work isn't to dictate how websites should be designed, but "to give guidance for people who want to make their content friendly for mobile devices." After two years of work, the organization believes that its mobileOK standard is ready for implementation, Hazaël-Massieux says.
Getting the standard ready was no easy task, given the huge diversity of devices that can access the Web today, with screens of all sizes and interfaces of varying flexibility. But there are some issues common to all these platforms, Hazaël-Massieux says. "In most cases today, when you use your mobile device to get onto the Web, the bandwidth won't be that great, and the latency [waiting time] in the network will be pretty big. And in many countries, it's very rare to have flat-rate data access, which means that downloading actually costs you money. So one of the big areas [for the mobileOK standard] is giving advice on how not to waste bandwidth—for example, by getting rid of embedded comments that are not going to be used or read by the mobile browser, or which CSS style sheets you should use and which you should be avoiding, or making the best use of caching so that a user won't have to reload a page that he just downloaded not so long ago."
The help of W3C member companies such as Nokia, Google, and Opera Software (maker of the Opera browser) has been crucial in assembling the MobileOK standard, says Hazaël-Massieux. Companies are beginning to recognize, he says, that the walled-garden approach, while seductive, isn't good for long-term innovation or profit.
"One of the criticisms of the Web on mobile devices that has been around for quite a while is the existence of these walled gardens where the operators would only give you access to websites that they produced or subsidized," he says. "That has been hurting the usage of the Web on mobile devices, because users aren't always terribly interested in what their operators think they should be interested in. This idea of keeping things very closed still has some supporters. But one thing Tim is very much arguing for is opening up the mobile Web as a platform and making it something that can trigger innovation."
Rather than just being in the business of getting people to download data, mobile operators and content providers who sign on to the mobileOK standards "can trigger innovation and new ways of shaping the Web that didn't exist before," says Hazaël-Massieux.

There are many things that can affect a man's ability to get and maintain an erection, such as medications, other health conditions and stress to name a few. Well, you can add your diet as another thing that can impact your sperm count, according to some recent studies.
Fertility of men, especially in the west have dramatically decreased in recent years, as you may have heard of recently in the news. More and more signs are pointing towards our diets as the main culprit behind this decrease as of late, so there are some foods you definitely are going to want to avoid if you are looking to have children at some point in your life.
The effects on your sperm count through diet can have long lasting effects, which is something to consider if you are a young guy who isn't looking to do so anytime soon.
Some of these same foods are linked to other negative health impacts such as the potential for type 2 diabetes, which can negatively impact your sexual health as well in your ability to get and maintain erections. Now that we have gotten all of the shock out of the way, here are the foods which you want to avoid altogether to increase your swimmers.
1 – Soda and Other Drinks with High Amounts of Added Sugar
If you haven't already eliminated soda and sugary drinks from your diet already because of their negative impact on your health, here is another reason why you should.
Studies have shown that too much sugar can lead to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, which can lower sperm counts. This is believed to be caused by the oxidative stressed caused by all of the additional sugar absorbed in to the system.
If you are someone who has a sweet tooth and can't get through the day without having something sweet, try sticking to fruits as a better alternative. Fruits still have plenty of sugar which will satisfy those cravings, but come along with plenty of fiber as well. This fiber is what will prevent those spikes in blood sugar levels which reduces your chances of getting diabetes and improve your sperm count.
2 – Canned Foods and Other BPA Sources
Bisphenol-A, otherwise known as BPA is a chemical compound that is commonly used to line the inside of canned goods to increase the shelf life of these products. The problem with BPA is that it closely mimics estrogen which has shown to cause damage to sperm cells.
On top of that if you are a guy you don't want to be eating foods that contain chemicals that mimic female hormones period, so stay away from most canned goods.
If you can't completely shy away from canned goods because of limited accessibility to fresh foods, look for cans that are marked BPA free. Many companies are transitioning away from BPA lined cans so look for ones that have such as Amy's and Muir Glen.
3 – Processed Meats
Most of us know processed meats aren't good for our health, but they just taste so good it is hard to give them up. These are some of the most common foods out there to eat as well, ones that have been engrained in to certain cultures making it that much more difficult to give up.
Knowing that a recent study conducted by Harvard might make that choice a lot easier for you however, in learning that men who regularly eat processed meats have on average about 25% less than those that don't.
Many people would first like to point at the high amounts of saturated fat being responsible here, but research is showing that the process itself is more so responsible. They believe it may again have something to do with hormones, in that many of the animals farmed in the United States are pumped up with hormones themselves.
The bright side here is that you don't have to give up meat altogether. Stick to grass fed organic varieties of beef when possible, as they are not given hormones and produce omega 3 fatty acids. Fatty fish like salmon are another great option here, as they are loaded with healthy omega 3 fatty acids as well, which are shown to improve sperm count.
4 – Foods Loaded with Pesticides
There seems to be a common theme here when it comes to foods we should avoid to improve our sperm count. Most of these bad foods seem to have some sort of impact over our hormones, and how these hormones control the growth and development of said sperm.
It shouldn't be too much of a surprise then to learn that we should be avoiding foods which are heavily treated with pesticides in general. Buying organic, locally grown food all the time is not only expensive but is impossible for many people to do.
You may not be able to buy everything organic, however there are some foods you should be buying more so than others. Your diet should be consisting mainly of vegetables and fruits, so look there first.
Avoid buying conventional berries, peppers, spinach and other foods with thin skins or membranes when possible. These types of foods are going to be more prone to these types of chemicals. Bananas, Pineapple, watermelon and other fruits with a thicker layer of protection are generally considered safer to eat.
5 – Full Fat Dairy Products
The position on whether or not full fat milk products are good for our health or not always seems to be swaying from one side to another. When it comes to reduced sperm count the evidence is pretty clear however, in that consuming more of these full fat milk products will do so.
This happens because the fat in the milk is especially attractive to all of those nasty pesticides and other harmful ingredients used on the cow. This means that in theory drinking milk with less fat would improve sperm counts, and it does.
If you are someone that just has to have their milk either with their coffee, tea, cereal or whatever it may be; remember to choose a low fat option. Not only will it not reduce your sperm counts but it can help to improve them. Milk contains a growth hormone which influences sperm production by increasing testosterone levels, so don't give up on dairy altogether.

A Tibetan monk in the west of China set himself on fire in an anti-government protest, then was beaten and kicked by police, prompting hundreds of monks and others to rally, an exiled Tibetan monk said.
The 21-year-old monk, Phuntsog, who like many Tibetans goes by only one name, set himself on fire on Wednesday afternoon on a main street near the Kirti monastery in Aba, Sichuan Province, said Kusho Tsering, a monk now living in Dharmsala, India.
A man who answered the phone yesterday at the Public Security Bureau in Aba said he did not know anything about the case and hung up.
A man who answered the phone at the media office of the Chinese Communist Party in Aba said his office did not know the specifics of the matter.
"The main office of the communist party in Aba County is on top of this issue," said the man, who would give only his surname, Zhang.
The phone rang unanswered at the main office.
"The monks in the Kirti monastery are always trying to find ways to protest against Chinese rule in Tibet," Tsering, who is from the same monastery, said late on Wednesday. "It's an obvious way to show the resentment of the Tibetan people."
The account highlights simmering tensions in Tibet and Tibetan-inhabited regions in western China amid several anniversaries this month, including the March 10 anniversary of the unsuccessful revolt against China that caused the Dalai Lama to flee in 1959. Aba County has for years been the scene of large protests involving hundreds of monks and citizens.
Within 15 minutes of the monk's self-immolation, police and plainclothes security officers turned up and extinguished the fire, but also beat and kicked the monk, Tsering said.
Angered by the beating, monks and Tibetan residents carried the monk back to the monastery, then marched along the main street, before police intervened, said Tsering, who added he received the information from two eyewitnesses and two residents.
Tsering said he did not know if Phuntsog survived.
Tsering spoke in Tibetan by telephone, with the help of an International Campaign for Tibet researcher in Dharmsala, who translated.
Wednesday marked the three-year anniversary of what Tibetan activists and residents have described as a bloody crackdown by police on a large demonstration at the Kirti monastery.
It came just days after rioting broke out in the Tibetan capital of Lhasa on March 14, 2008, which left 22 people dead and led to the most sustained Tibetan uprising against Chinese rule in decades.

Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, where theives break in and steal. -Matthew 6:19
Hello All! Summer has been hectic. I've been at camp for a great deal of it and dealing with stress from frequent schedule changes and… well… life, I guess. Life is hard, blogging is hard, really hard. I mean, a weekly devo doesn't sound like much to one who has never tried it before. That's what I thought when I first started writing weekly devos. It was… much harder then I thought it would be, but I'm back at it, summer is drawing to a close, and I have much less of a crazy schedule. So here goes…
This is another one of those verses that I hear so often it just loses meaning, but it, like many other often quoted verses, has a lot of meaning behind it if you just stop and look.
So, let's identify treasures on earth. Some earthly treasures are money, food, clothes, just about any physical object attainable on this planet, etc. There are many earthly treasures, and we're told not to store them up for ourselves. If you find it tough not to store these things up, you're not alone! I'm pretty sure every human being goes through the temptation of wanting more… stuff, and if not, well, good for them I suppose.
Now wait, before you give away everything you own, let's look a little bit closer. God calls us not to store it up, He doesn't necessarily call us to get rid of it all. If I got rid of all of my earthly possessions, I wouldn't have the means to post this devo right now. 🙂

Something was in the air. In his studio in the basement of
, Jack Muller sniffed the air experimentally. All that he could smell was the acrid scent of
the kilns, baking his latest set of bowls that he promised a gift store he'd
deliver before the end of the week—after slapping an obscene price tag on each
and every one of them. Upriver
Jack frowned, his massive arms crossed over his pot belly. It wasn't the smell of the kilns that he was sensing, it was something else, something invisible that seemed to be wafting through the halls of Upriver like a toxic gas that was sooner or later going to take down each and every one of them.
The rest of the staff had been in rotten moods for months but this past week had been something else. That witch Scarlett had just about taken his head off when he'd asked her if she'd ever be interested in a little old roll in the hay. Geez, he was just kidding. Didn't anyone have a sense of humor any more? And then there was Luna, Scarlett's little protégé, who hadn't even talked to Jack since Christmas. Not that Jack really cared. He liked women with at least a little meat on their bones and Luna looked like a walking skeleton.
Then there was Lucy. Lucy had been extra nasty to him lately too. Something was up. Something was going on that he didn't know about. Not that there was anything unusual about that. Jack was almost always out of the loop when it came to what was happening at the school. His boss Dick and his little tag team of Scarlett and Gaylord kept everyone else at arm's length. Most of the time Jack didn't give a damn but he had a creepy feeling that maybe this time he should pay closer attention. With the attendance at Upriver sinking lower and lower every semester, he knew the school was in trouble. Plus the state was making a lot of noises lately too, noises that sounded ominously like doors slamming and paychecks not being cut.
Jack wasn't sure what he'd do if the school closed. It wasn't like he had any other talents that he could cash in on. At least none that paid as well as Schuylar Square Charter School. Hell, Jack wasn't even a real teacher and he was pulling in over fifty big ones a year. Where else would he make that kind of dough for doing so little work? Not with his pottery. That was basically crap and he knew it. He was fifty-five years old, more than a little brain-addled from way too much weed, and he didn't want to start all over again.
He couldn't start all over again.
Jack gave himself a shake. He might detest Dick and Scarlett and Gaylord, but they were all in the same boat that he was and Jack was positive that they weren't about to let it sink. Plus Dick and Scarlett were a lot closer to retirement than he was. They had more at stake than anyone else.
"What am I talking about?" Jack said out loud. "I haven't heard word one about the school closing. Why am I getting all bent out of shape?"
"Talking to yourself again, Jack?" Crystal Brewer walked into the room.
Jack grinned at her. Finally, a female who wasn't a total witch. "How's my favorite aide?"
"Hung over. Got anything on you that might make me feel better?"
"Jack! I thought I could always count on you."
Jack shook his furry head. "I told you; I'm being good. I've even given up smoking."
"I'm just trying to do the right thing."
Jack laughed too. She knew him too well "Well, maybe I do have something that might make us both feel better out in my car," he said. "We could split a forty."
"I know, I know. Mr. Boy Scout would fire us both."
"I wish Dick would die,"
pleasantly as the left the art room. "Do you need to do anything about those
kilns?" Crystal
"They'll be fine," Jack replied. Closing the door behind them, Jack led the way to the parking lot. A moment later one of the kilns made a loud cracking noise but there was no one there to hear it.

Sometimes, you'll need to delete data from your OneSaas file - this can be a risky process, however below we'll explain how, and why you would delete data from your file. One main point to note, would be that when you delete data you're only deleting it from OneSaas - this will not delete data from any other system. If you are not sure if you need to delete data or not, please check with OneSaas support.
As a first rule, you need to ensure that if you're deleting data you manually apply the same action, on the same record across all systems. Never delete data in one system and assume we will pick up the delete operation, if you delete data without also deleting the record in OneSaas, you will most likely run into errors.
In your OneSaas file from the Data section, you can delete most of your data by hitting the Remove button with the trash can icon next to it.
There are a variety of reasons you may need to delete data, sometimes OneSaas support may ask you to, or sometimes you just want to get rid of it across all systems. Below are a few common reasons:
- We've pulled in duplicate products from one of your systems, and pushed this through to another system - we need to delete the incorrect record across all systems manually, including OneSaas to ensure all sales are made against the correct product.
- You're cleaning up old data in all systems, so you'll need to manually delete your data everywhere including OneSaas to ensure we don't recreate anything - we will not pick up any delete operations from your other systems.
- We've pulled in incorrect data from another system, in this case you'll need to delete data in both OneSaas and the destination system, correct the data in the original system and then re-sync.
As a safety measure, you will not be able to delete data if that record is being used - below are some common scenarios that this would happen:
- You're trying to delete a product that is currently used in a transaction - if you would really like to delete this, you'll need to delete the transaction first, then the product.
- You're trying to delete a contact that is currently used in a transaction - if you would like to delete this, you'll need to do the same as you would with a product and delete the transaction first.
Majority of the time deleting data is not the right thing to do, and will cause issues further down the line - these issues can be avoided by applying the delete operation across all systems. Below is an example of the consequences of not doing so:
If you delete a product in your accounting system, then recreate it and assume our system will pick up the changes - unfortunately we won't. We have a link to that old product, and when we try to push an update to the product, or even a new sale to the product it will not work. This could have been avoided by deleting the data across all systems including OneSaas

Student Account Information
General Tuition and Fee/Payment Policies
- Initial Statement: An initial statement is mailed in mid-June for the fall semester and the end of December for the spring semester. The initial statement is referred to as an "estimate statement" because the charges are subject to change, typically resulting from changes in tuition (adding/dropping courses), board plans, room assignments, course fees, etc. A final statement is sent to the billing address after the add/drop period has ended, which is usually in mid-September for the fall and mid-February for the spring. Please be advised that private scholarships and loans from external sources will not be reflected on a student's account until the College receives those funds.

Students should access their online billing at least monthly to keep informed of their financial status. For convenience and expediency, payments can be made online at this secure site.
- Billing Name and Address: The student is ultimately responsible for paying the bill, however, SC understands that students may want their bill to be sent to a family member who may be making college payments. Billing statements will be sent to the mailing address on the Billing Contract only. It is the student's responsibility to work out payment issues with their parents or guardians. Name and/or address changes must be submitted in writing to Financial Aid/Student Account offices. The student's signature on the Billing Contract provides authorization for Financial Aid & Student Account offices to discuss the student's account with the person(s) listed.
- Correspondence with the student: Students are responsible to check their Sterling e-mail account regularly and will miss important information from their advisors, professors, and administration if they do not do so.
- Financial Aid: All questions regarding financial aid awards must be directed to the financial aid office at 620-278-4207 or email@example.com.
- Outside Financial Aid: Any type of financial aid that is received directly (bank loans, Social Security benefits, Vocational Rehabilitation benefits, or scholarships outside of Sterling College) will not be credited on the student's billing until funds are received.

The initial aim of the early reformers in the movement was Christian unity. They believed that understanding and practicing the three principles enunciated in this slogan would inevitably lead to unity.
In the first instance, for those who accept the Bible as the Holy Spirit inspired, infallible, and authoritative word of God and their only and all-sufficient rule for faith and practice, unity can become a reality.
In the second instance, in matters of opinion, even though the Bible addresses that issue, that is usually, as the saying goes, "where the rub comes in."
And the third, my subject, which is the key, is seemingly the most difficult to achieve because it relates to attitudes and spirit. But it is what makes the first two viable.
In the first instance, one can be doctrinally sound but still manifest a sectarian and a mean and nasty spirit. The Pharisees, you recall, meticulously crossed every "t" and dotted every "i", they fasted and they tithed everything they got. Though one may be doctrinally correct, the Pharisaic spirit would negate any effort at unity.
In the second instance, with regard to opinions, when it be- comes "my way or no way;" when it becomes "the only way I know you're listening to me is for you to do what I want;" or "you play the game my way or I'm taking my toys and going elsewhere," and it ends up castigating those who don't see it your way, that also negates any effort at unity. The attitude in both instances has split many a church.
The absence of love destroys unity. That is why this great slogan closes on this note, "In all things love."
So seemingly, the most difficult to achieve is the last part of the slogan, "in all things, love," which, if it could be implemented in all our relationships, would make unity achievable. No wonder love is such a broad subject and receives so much attention in God's word. In God's family, you and I are called to a life of love.
It was Tennyson who said: "In the Spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love." I'm certain this is not the type of love we're talking about. For I know God's love is not restricted to particular seasons. It is not a fickle love. It is not the kind of love seen in the two fellows where one turned to the other and asked, "Do you love me?" The other responded, "Man, I love you to the end." Whereupon the first said, "Well then, lend me ten bucks." The second responded, "That's the end." God's love is constant.
I. What Is Love?
A preacher was trying to instruct his Bible School class of junior boys in the Biblical meaning of love. Noting that one lad was particularly attentive, he asked him, "If I saw a man beating a donkey, and I persuaded him to stop, what Christian virtue would I be demonstrating?" The boy replied, "You'd be showing brotherly love."
The answer to that question is important if we are to experience the unity for which Jesus prayed in John 17:21 and to which the early Restorationists aspired. The difficulty is that so many who have been in church all their lives and who have been schooled in basic doctrine, still only have an elementary concept of Biblical love and to that can be attributed most of the difficulties that most churches experience.
When Columbus landed in America, he did not know he had discovered a vast continent. He knew nothing of its vast rivers, its great lakes, its valleys. What did he know about the wealth of minerals hidden in her mountains? Many Christians have never taken the time to fully explore the love of God and how it relates to our treatment of one another.
When that question, "What is love?" was posed in a junior boy's Bible School class, a little lad raised his hand and said, "Before you fall in love, your heart goes lob-a-dob, lob-a-dob. But after you fall in love, it goes lob-a-squish-dob, lob-a-squish-dob."
Another lad gave his observations when he wrote a composition on love. He wrote, "Love is something that makes two people think they are pretty when nobody else does. It also makes them sit close together on a bench when there is plenty of room on both ends. Love is something that young people have that old people don't have because it's all about dimples and star-like eyes and curls that old people don't have. It is something that makes two people very quiet when you are around, also very quiet when you aint, only in a different way. When they do talk, it's all about dreams and roses and moonshine. When I grow up, I'm not going to fall in love, but if I do, she's got to let me say what to do and let me run the whole show, and that's all I know about love, till I do grow up."
Another teacher endeavored to elicit answers to that question from her elementary school children by asking a series of questions. Here are some of the responses. What is the proper age to get married? Judy, age 8: "Eighty-four. Because at that age, you don't have to work anymore, and you can spend all your time loving each other." (Why was I never told that?) Why does love happen between two people? Harlan, age 8,: "I think you're supposed to get shot with an arrow or something, but the rest of it isn't supposed to be so painful."
What does falling in love feel like? Roger, age 9: "Like an avalanche where you have to run for your life." Leo, age 7: "If falling in love is anything like learning how to spell, I don't want to do it. It takes too long."
What do you think about love? Bobby, age 8: "Love will find you, even if you are trying to hide from it. I have been trying to hide from it since I was five, but the girls keep finding me." Regina, age 10: "I'm not rushing into being in love. I'm finding fourth grade hard enough."
How do you make love last? Roger, age 8: "Don't forget your wife's name. That will mess up the love."
These childish definitions of love may be cute and amusing. But they are also an indication of the impact our culture has made upon their impressionable minds and how far short they fall of the Biblical concept of love and of that considered in our theme.
The reason love is so difficult to achieve is because our culture's concept of love is selfish and is the antithesis of the Biblical concept, and it has permeated the church. The culture's concept of love has been glamorized by music, literature, and the entertainment industry. It can easily occur on "some enchanted evening." It's a very fragile type of love, "here today, gone tomorrow." This type of love is not based on character, on commitment, or enduring values. It springs from one's biological makeup. It survives only as long as needs are being met. There is nothing wrong with an erotic love, per se. God created us that way. But it does not fully serve its purpose apart from two other types of love. There is friendship love; a sharing, reciprocal love (phileo); and the love we are talking about (agape), God's love, a self-giving love. It concerns itself with giving more than receiving. It is concerned with the welfare of others. It is interested in what is helpful, not detrimental. This is the love that Christians are to exhibit to others.
This love is unconditional. It knows no social, ethnic, or economic distinctions. Love is not based on what someone has or hasn't done. It is not based on what someone is or isn't. This type of love keeps on loving when it would be easier to walk away. This kind of love is commanded as the solution to all the problems in the world and in the church, because it deals with interpersonal relationships. As one has said, "Love is the most sublime capability one has because it is the most like God."
II. The Basis For This Kind of Love.
We cannot know this kind of love apart from God. In 1 John 4:8 the apostle says: "Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God because God is love."
It is demonstrated in God's love for us. Romans 5:8 states that love (self-giving agape love) loves whether its object deserves that love or not: "But God demonstrated his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." When I reflect on that, it leads me to the words of the song, "I stand amazed in the presence of Jesus the Nazarene, and wonder how he could love me, a sinner, condemned, unclean."
Christ's own example is the basis for this kind of love. He loved the church because He chose to love her. There wasn't anything romantic about it. And because He chose to love her, He gave Him- self for her. He submitted Himself to scourging and cruel mocking. He allowed sinful men to nail Him to a cross and hang Him up to die. His prayer had been, "Not my will but thine be done." He did it because He loved. And this is the way God enjoins us to love one another. Because this kind of love has a kingdom perspective, an eternal perspective. It looks beyond self to others.
God. says, "I first loved you, in spite of what I knew about you, even when you were unlovely." His mind was made up about you and me from the very beginning. There was this young man that came up to a lady friend and excitedly exclaimed, "I've got a great piece of news for you! I proposed to Betty last night and she promised to be my wife!" His friend responded, "You call that news? Four weeks ago she asked me to be her bridesmaid." And so many do not know the amazing good news that the Lamb of God was slain for them from the creation of the world (Revelation 13:8).
III. This Love Is A Discipline.
Again, it is a multi-faceted discipline. It teaches. It trains. It has rules. It's a way of life. It submits to properly constituted authority. It rebukes. It corrects. "This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome" (1 John 5:3).
A lot of things today are paraded under the name of love that are actually a violation of it. Some think that love makes discipline unnecessary, that love and any rules or regulations are mutually exclusive.
Some parents think that indulgence and permissiveness is a sign of love. This is the modern and most destructive concept of love because it makes its recipient self-focused.
Love is not God giving us what we want. It's God giving us what He wants and what we need. Saying "no" can sometimes be the most loving thing one can do. Love cannot overlook wrong because love is truth oriented.
Proverbs 13:18 says: "He who ignores discipline comes to poverty and shame." Verse 24: "He who loves his son is careful to discipline him." 15:32 - "He who ignores discipline despises himself." Hebrews 12:5 - "Do not make light of the Lord's discipline." Verse 6 - "The Lord disciplines those he loves." Verse 8 - "If you are not disciplined...then you are illegitimate children and not true sons."
As a parent I loved my children unconditionally. But I had certain requirements of them. Even when they disobeyed me, even when they were unlovely on occasion, I still loved them, and that love exercised discipline.
The reason love demands discipline is because it is genuinely concerned about one's welfare or well-being. Love is not subjective. It is a command. If love were based on feelings alone, we might never love, or at least it would be short-lived. Agape love is not something that happens to you. It's an exercise of your will. It's something you make happen in response to a command. Jesus quoted Deuteronomy 6:5 in Mark 12:28-31 when He was asked by a teacher of the law, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?" Jesus said, " The most important one is this '. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with
all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength, The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."
In 1 John 4:21 the apostle says; "And this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God love his brother also."
2 John 6: "And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in his love."
And in John 13:34 Jesus said, "A new command (note, not a "new feeling") but a new command I give you. Love one another as I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." Then John says in 1 John 3:14 - "We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers."
So we readily see that love is a lot more than feelings. I was visiting in the home of a farmer in Ocean View, Delaware, and talking to him about becoming a Christian. His response was, "I believe in Jesus. And I know what the Bible says. And I would like to be a Christian. But I have been waiting for a feeling and I have never had it. The Lord will let me know when it's my time." His eleven-year-old son was sitting on the sofa across the living room listening to our conversation. I said, "Suppose you were reading your newspaper one evening and asked your son if he would please go and get you a glass of water, and would go back to reading your paper, and suddenly became aware that your son hadn't moved. And you would repeat the request and again go back to reading your paper. Noting that your son had not budged, you would lay aside your paper and say, "Son, did you hear your Dad?!" And he responded, "Dad, you don't need to raise your voice. I heard you the first time. I'll do what you asked me to do when I get a feeling." I said, "I suspect he would get a feeling, but not the one he was looking for. You don't need to wait for a feeling to do what God has asked you to do." The light suddenly came on and he said, "Just to think, that all these years I have been wanting to become a Christian and have been waiting for a feeling, when all along, all I had to do was to obey the Lord and do what He asked me to do." The man was baptized into Christ that night.
And then, love behaves. 1 Corinthians 13 is known as the love chapter and is used in almost every wedding. But it should be used in every kind of relationship, especially where disagreements can be potentially disruptive. Why? Because 1 Corinthians 13 describes a behavior. It cites eight things love does and eight things love does not do. And this type of love makes for, and maintains, unity.
IV. What Does Love Do?
St. Augustine said love has "the hands to help others; it has feet to hasten to the poor and needy; it has the eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That's what Christian love looks like." Of course, he got that from Jesus who said in Matthew 25:40 - "Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me."
The apostle John said in 1 John 3:18 "Let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth."
And note, John concluded, love should also be discerning, "love in truth." It has become popular to say, "Love shouldn't be judgmental." That is true, only in the sense in which Jesus condemned it in Matthew 7:1. That is probably one of the most misquoted scriptures in the Bible because it is lifted out of the context in which Jesus was condemning hypocritical judgment. And in the same context He illustrated the necessity of proper judgment. Love must, by its very nature, discern the difference between right and wrong, good and evil, truth and falsehood.
Love speaks the truth. Truth is important but is not always spoken in love. Love and truth go hand in hand. Paul warns in 2 Thessalonians 2;10 people "perish because they refuse to love the truth." So he who loves, loves sound doctrine. Love stands firm on the non-negotiables which makes unity possible. That's why Jesus prayed for God to sanctify his disciples by the truth because His word is truth, and He prayed for all those who would believe in Him through their message because the inevitable result would be unity.
In matters of faith, love, a concern for others, requires the expo- sure of false teaching. If we love God, His word, His truth, we must hate everything God hates, for those things destroy relationships.
In matters of opinion, love is discerning enough not to equate those opinions with matters of faith and make them tests of fellowship. Love has the capacity to negotiate the negotiable in areas of those with whom you may differ without disrupting the unity of the church. A mother of seven was asked how she divided her love among so many children. "You don't divide," she corrected. "You multiply." The many differences of opinions in a church should not divide our love. Rather, they should multiply it.
So, both in matters of faith and opinion, Paul admonishes us in Ephesians 4:15 to speak the truth in love because, as he says in 1 Corinthians 13:6 "love rejoices with the truth."
Love respects and obeys the truth as Peter affirms in 1 Peter 1:22 "Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth, so that you have sincere love for your brothers, love one another deeply from the heart."
Hebrews 13:1 admonishes "Keep on loving each other as brothers." It's a continuous thing.
A Kansas tornado hit a farmhouse just before dawn. It tore the roof off and lifted the bed out of the bedroom with the farmer and his wife still in it and set it down gently in a field in the next county. When they finally came to their senses, the farmer gave a sigh of relief and looked over at his wife and she was crying. "Don't be scared Mary, we're not hurt." She kept on crying and said, "I'm not scared, I'm happy. I'm so happy." "Happy?! Look what happened to our house. What are you so happy about?" "I'm happy because this is the first time we've been out together in twenty years."
I hope it doesn't take us that long to learn that togetherness brings happiness. Keep on loving, maintain that agape love relationship because, as someone has said, "The best way for a man to remember his wife's birthday is to forget it just once."
Unexpressed love is an oxymoron—a figure of speech in which opposite or contradictory ideas or terms are combined, like thunderous silence, sweet sorrow, pretty ugly, a working vacation, and we could add, unexpressed love.
Coach John Wooden, famous basketball coach who set all kinds of records at UCLA and who is a Christian, one day was interviewed with regard to his being a Christian and being known for sharing his faith. He said, "There's a little poem I like-'a bell isn't a bell until you ring it. A song isn't a song until you sing it. And the love that is in us wasn't put there to stay. Because love isn't love until you give it away.'" He said, "That's how I feel about people I meet."
The story is told of this couple that was attending a Marriage Enrichment Seminar. He was the kind of guy that didn't say much. His wife wanted to get him into this type of environment to help him become the kind of man she wanted him to be around her. The speaker talked about saying the right words and being romantic. He was a kind of bashful guy and wasn't into that much. It came time for the lunch break and they sat down to eat between two other couples. He was trying his best to be the kind of guy the speaker had been talking about. So he listened to the guy on his left and heard him say to his wife across the table, "Pass the honey, Honey." Boy, he thought. That's pretty good. And then he heard the guy to his right say to his wife, "Pass the sugar, Sugar." So he thought, Well, I guess I'd better say something. So he said to his wife, "Pass the tea - Bag."
So let us as a people become better at learning how to express our love for one another. Let us begin to practice "in all things love." This will happen when people's hearts are corrected. Until this happens, the ills that affect our relationships will not be corrected. Selfishness and pride defeat love. And the converse is true. Love defeats selfishness and pride.
So Paul gives us the divine trinity: "And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love." (1 Corinthians 13:13) And then he entreats in 14:1 "Follow the way of love." Love continues to be the abiding principle that controls all that God and His redeemed people are and do.
In Carville, Louisiana, there is a leprosy hospital. A preacher went to visit to see what the disease does to a person. The hospital chaplain took him to see one lady. Her face was horribly disfigured. The chaplain said, "She sings in our chapel choir." The preacher asked her, "Would you sing for me your favorite song?" Through disfigured lips she sang, "I sing because I'm happy. I sing because I'm free. For His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches me."
That the unlovely should be the object of love is foreign to human nature. But it is a miracle of Divine love! The capacity to bestow love upon that which is not beautiful, which is ugly, can only come from One Who sees beyond that which is visible. May we grow in our capacity, in all things, to love like that. And then we will truly be able to sing from our hearts as well as our lips:
Blest be the tie that binds Our hearts in Christian love.
The fellowship of kindred minds Is like to that above.
And let all God's people say "Amen."

BMX rider Corey Bohan -- who moonlights as Audrina Patridge's sometimes boyfriend -- was arrested on Friday for public intoxication
Bohan was busted by Hermosa Beach PD early Friday morning. He was charged with the misdemeanor, spent about eight hours in jail, posted $500 bail and was released.
Bohan had a very public breakup with Patridge in March (the two traded barbs via Twitter) but word is they are now back together.
Worth noting ... Audrina tweeted that day, "I absolutely hate what jack Daniels does to people:( jack is a bad bad man!!!"
I'm not surprised are you? The majority of his texts seem to center around drinking!
BMX star Corey Bohan might have gotten off easy the night he was arrested -- because before he was popped for public intoxication, he was involved in a fight ... this according to law enforcement.
As TMZ first reported, Bohan was busted on the misdemeanor charge early Friday morning.
But according to police, Bohan was first discovered by cops in the middle of a "physical altercation" in which he was allegedly the aggressor. However, cops say no one wanted to press charges for assault -- but because Bohan was showing signs of intoxication, "he was arrested for the safety of himself and others."
Police say he spent a few hours in jail and was released without incident ... once he sobered up.
