A Happy Alternative
A Happy Alternative
That singular American creation, the backyard deck, conjures up images of idyllic afternoons napping in a hammock or festive get-togethers around the grill and a tub of ice-cold beer. But maintaining that elevated expanse of lumber is a downright chore, what with all the scrubbing, bleaching, and staining that wood requires—not to mention the occasional replacement of a splintered, warped, or rotten board.
When the less demanding plastic-composite decking appeared on the scene in the 1990s, homeowners happily adopted it, despite the higher price and limited color selection (gray). A decade later, as companies began to offer new products that looked like fresh-cut cedar and Brazilian walnut but never turned gray, sales of composites took off. Last year's tally came to $1 billion. That kind of popularity represents a big boost for the environment, too, because most composites are made from waste: sawdust, used plastic milk jugs, and shopping bags. Every 20 feet of decking contains about 30 pounds of material that would have ended up in a landfill. Trex, the first and largest of the composite manufacturers, recycles 6 million pounds of plastic each year.
The fact that composites don't feel or look like real wood is beside the point. Once in place, they just do their job and don't need much more than an annual washdown, leaving you plenty of time to work on your nap.
Already got old wood boards in place? Here's How to Spruce Up a Deck to get it looking new again.

It's been a year of refreshing music for all music lovers. The song that remained at the top of all was 'Shape of You' by Ed Sheeran, over 47 million monthly listeners have made this track the most streamed song on Spotify, which also made Ed Sheeran the most popular artist of 2017 and his album 'Divide' was a record-breaking release. Here's the list of most streamed artists of 2017: Ed Sheeran Drake The Weeknd Kendrick Lamar The chainsmokers After Ed Sheeran, the most popular artists are three hip-hop stars, along with R&B- Drake. The rest of the list is followed by The Weeknd and Kendrick Lamar. The fifth spot is well-earned by The chainsmokers, who along with Coldplay came up with a brilliant track. (See also: Buy Spotify Followers) Although these artists were most streamed, liked and talked about according to Spotify. But the list of most streamed tracks is a bit different, Ed Sheeran remains at the top without a doubt as 'Shape of You' got tremendous appreciation from all over and listeners made it the popular choice track of the year. A surprising hit this year was 'Despacito', its a Spanish track created by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, but what drove so many listeners to it, is still unknown. It got such broad attention that the track started to get likes not only from the U.S., rather from all around. Its been a landmark year for Latin music, as per Spotify the listenership has increase by 110%. Spotify has listed 10 latin songs, which are making to Spotify's Global Top 50. Despacito remix has featuring Justin Bieber was named Spotify "Song of the summer'. In addition to this, Yankee was also given fist position on Spotify in the month of July, this was the first-time honour for a Latin artist. Here's the list of most streamed Tracks of 2017: Shape of You- Ed Sheeran Despacito – Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee, feat. Justin Bieber Despacito- Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee Something just like this – The Chainsmokers and Coldplay I'm the One," DJ Khaled, Justin Bieber, Chance the Rapper, Quavo, Lil Wayne Apart from the most Streamed tracks and artists, Spotify also declared popular male artists and female artists separately that included one of the most-renowned names and their work has been liked on Spotify as well. For instance, Rihanna third time in a row has been titled as most streamed Female artist. Competing with other leading artists like Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez and Ariana Grande Rihanna has made it to the top but still not included in the most streamed artists of Spotify, which means male artists are leading the way whether it's on Spotify or music industry. Mostly, male artists get instant attention and get popular in comparison to female artists, although Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez both are familiar names and many others for that matter but still they couldn't make it to the most streamed artists due to the popularity they gained on Spotify.

Gluten Free Hamantaschen II
7 oz. (200 g) butter
8 oz. (250 g) cream cheese
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour (use your favorite blend of gluten-free flours)
Apricot, raspberry, poppy seed or prune butter filling
1 egg, beaten (optional)
Sugar or cinnamon sugar for garnish (optional)
Extra flour for handling the dough
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Bake Time: 20 minutes in preheated 350°F oven
Total Time: 50 minutes
In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and cream cheese together. Add the sugar and vanilla, and mix until smooth. Let the mixture come to room temperature. Then, add in the flour and mix lightly. Refrigerate the dough for an hour or more.
Preheat the oven to 350° F.
Cover baking sheets with parchment paper and sprinkle the paper with flour.
Coat your hands with flour and break off enough dough to roll between your palms into a ball of about an inch to an inch-and-a-half in diameter. Make sure the ball is coated with flour, and place it on the baking sheet.
Coat the bottom of a drinking glass or custard cup with flour, and flatten the ball of dough to about 1/8 of an inch. (Don't press too hard or the dough will stick to the glass.) Place about a teaspoon of filling on the circle of dough.
With a flour-coated spatula, gently lift the edges of the circle. Pull up the sides and pinch three corners together to form a triangular cookie, with filling showing. It doesn't matter if the dough doesn't look perfect. Use your finger to close any holes in the sides.
Repeat the process until the baking sheet is filled, and bake for about 20 minutes, or until golden.
Some people like to brush their hamantaschen with beaten egg and sugar before baking. Others like to sprinkle them with confectioners' sugar after they're baked.

We as addicts need to hear this. We like to blow up our war stories and make it sound like we were running a muck, but it isn't about where we were, it's about where we are today. In Recovery, we have a new life, our past is put behind us as we move forward. Being authentic and true to ourselves will only benefit us and keep us on a straight path. Yes, we may fall, but we have the One to call upon and lift us back up. And it's nothing we have done and can take credit for, it's by His grace we are saved. Being involved in a healthy church, hitting meetings and fellowshipping are all beneficial to a strong, active and flourishing Recovery. Become Free! Become the Difference!
Below is a blog called 'Authenticity' by Matt Chewning, Pastor at Netcast Church in Beverly, Ma. You can read the original 'Authenticity' blog and also get more information by visiting NetcastChurch.org
Self-Glory Competition
For as far back as I can remember, I've been the most competitive person I know. I hate losing, I hate it more than I love winning. Besides being born a sinner, I also was born into a family where this "competitive trait" drove us all. To this day there's the constant competition over which family member has the most money, who has the biggest house or what married couple has the most sex; it can get awkward at times. In recent years, the Lord has begun to show me that entering into these conversations can be a form of self-glorification as I attempt to try and convince others that I'm better then I really am.
I've recently come to realize that this isn't just a "Chewning Family" issue, but a massive disease that is spreading throughout evangelicalism. Actually, many of us were trained in self-glorification from the moment of salvation.
My Story
I was raised with no spiritual upbringing at all. My mom is a non-practicing Jew, my dad, a non-practicing Catholic and when I was 4 years old they divorced. My only memory of church growing up was being thrown out of a church basketball game because I kept using offensive language. After High School I was recruited to play basketball at a Christian college and decided to attend even though I knew nothing about Christianity. Within 2 months of being at school, a friend of mine, Ricky Grant, shared the gospel with me off campus and I immediately believed in Jesus and became a Christian.
On September 1, 2000, I walked back to my Christian campus as a new creation, saved by the blood of Jesus and immediately, self-glorification training began. Within hours of having my heart transformed by Jesus, I was told how a Christian should act and look. Christians don't drink, curse, smoke, doubt, have sex before marriage, listen to Hip-Hop music or hit the clubs. Christians are people who abide by a specific life-style covenant and to disobey this lifestyle was to reveal that you must not actually be a Christian. So here I am, a new believer without a safe environment to authentically wrestle with the broken things that still exist in my heart, while also learning the expertise of self-glorification.
Today, almost 13 years after Jesus saved me, I am still in self-glorification recovery. And the more Christians I interact with the more I see how deeply rooted this sin of self glory actually is.
Being a Professional Disciple
As Christians, we love to over-exaggerate our spiritual walk, we hide the disfunction in our marriages and disguise our pain by quoting verses on joy. Sundays are the worst! We put on our Sunday's best, grab our bibles, put on our smile, rehearse some big theological terms and head out the door. The only thing is that deep down, we feel like a fake, we have little worship, our marriages are messy and the kids are cute demons. Add to that, you've been so well trained in "fake humility and Christian culture", that nobody knows how dysfunctional your heart is.
Developing Professional Disciples
To make matters worse, disciples are called to make disciples, leaders are called to multiply ourselves and sadly many of us are! We're developing and deploying masked disciples who are incredible at hiding their sin, saying the right things and having no safe environment to wrestle with personal sin. To even consider it would be a form of weakness that we're not willing to expose.
So, what's the answer? If we are called to develop and deploy passionate worshippers of Jesus and be steadfast about developing and deploying passionate worshippers of Jesus, then how do we do this?
As a self-glory addict who is slowing walking through a season of recovery, I have found much hope in Romans 12:9 which tells me "Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good." If we are truly going to develop healthy disciples, we have to lead the way in authenticity rooted in the beauty of the gospel.
The Problem
If all of us, "fall short of the Glory of God" and "no one does good, not even one." If all of us can have an "evil, unbelieving heart, leading us to fall away from the Living God" (Romans 3; Hebrews 3), than why pretend as if we don't struggle with things like pride, lust, hatred or doubt? If the good news of the gospel is that we are so wicked in comparison to the incredible holiness of God, that our only hope would be that Christ would grant us His righteousness through the cross; than why minimize our need for the gospel by pretending we are more spiritual and godly than we actually are?
The Answer
The answer to this epic problem is the same answer to every epic problem; The Gospel. At some point we have to remember that Jesus is the only answer to the sin of our self-glory. Regardless of your title, training or education; Jesus is the only answer that won't over-promise and under-deliver. In Jesus we are reminded that we all desperately need the gospel. We're all sheep and He's our Chief Shepherd. Other people may not know me, but the reality is that I am fully known by Jesus yet fully loved by Jesus.
My sin and brokenness which seems to weigh so heavily on me are tiny in comparison to the massiveness of His grace. The beauty and freedom of the Gospel is that I see the truth that "my God died for my imperfections, therefore I have no need to pretend to be perfect."
Praise His Name!!
It's SUICIDE.Posted: November 7, 2013 in Purpose, Suicide
Tags: addiction, Cutting, Drug Abuse, Faith, Hope, Jesus Christ, Mental Health, over eating, suicide
How selfish have I become. Who am I to take control of my own life? Wanting to end it because I couldn't hack it. Wanting to end it because I had no other alternative. I had no purpose. I had not one ounce of hope left or even a reason to say the word.
Who am I to make this final conclusion, this determining judgment? Like taking my life would have somehow cosmically balanced the world as I knew it. Well I had so many reasons to do it. So many. I was in pain. I was hurt. Every breath was painful. My eyes felt heavy and it hurt to look, it hurt to see. I blamed many people for the way my life turned out.
Just trying to make sense of it all, what ever reason sounded right in my mind. What ever made sense. I needed a solid foundation to jump off of. An underlining agreement. A grasp on why, and the way I was going to do this. I know, it makes no sense, but that's all I needed. It wouldn't take much for me to go over the edge once I was there. All I needed was the courage to finalize the deal. But I had none. I didn't even have enough courage to talk to anyone. I didn't have enough courage to make ANY important decisions. I had no courage at all. I had no faith, no hope and no sense of self worth.
I lost control so I thought giving up was the next step. I was nearing the end of my addiction. I had been abusing opiates like it was my profession and I was working overtime trying to make the boss happy. I was the boss. I was self employed and I was stock sharing and profiting off my own redundant gains. I was a reckless, self indulging machine heading for disaster. I was a fast moving mechanical device which was out of grease; heating up and ready to explode.
This is what my life came to. I abused it and now I wanted to lose it. I had been clean for a couple weeks, many times, but the thought of being alive was still dreadful. I was depressed beyond the definition of depressed. I was oppressed and addiction was my oppressor. I didn't get it though. I didn't know why I was so suicidally depressed.
I had thoughts racing of different ways to terminate life as humane as possible. How people… family… friends would have judged me and how the rumors would have spread if they found me a certain way. I would drive and stare off into an abyss of ways to end my useless life. I went through so many different mini episodes of death like looking through a Rolodex. Trying to find the right one. The series finale of a stupid show which was down to its last rerun. I was done.
I would sometimes get a little boost of hope through a song on the radio or my ipod. I would relate my life to the lyrics. I would substitute my depression with music because I wasn't at peace and music seemed to free me a little bit. My anger was filtered through songs. I would use the music and relate a scenario to it and try to sooth the effects of my past. It felt good too.
I was in search of something… anything. I had a huge void in my life that needed to be filled real quick. Wishing someone would fill it for me. Hoping someone would sweep me off my feet and carry me through this. But as time went on, I realized that wasn't going to happen.
I realized that the drug abuse, this slow death, was artificially filling a void in my life. Some of us cut. Some of us drink. Some of us over eat. What ever it is that we do, we do it because we are trying to satisfy a hunger.
We were designed to follow and love our Maker. It's in our DNA. We were constructed and fashioned to worship a Holy and Living God. We also have evolved into believing that there are other alternatives. But I tell you, God is real, He IS listening and He does love you and wants you in His arms! If you are struggling with the thoughts of suicide, I beg of you to constantly call upon Jesus Christ. This is between you and Him. I will leave it at that.
It is written: "No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it." 1 Corinthians 10:13.

Faith in Action!Posted: October 17, 2013 in Faith, Perseverance
Tags: addiction, Faith, God, Holy Spirit, Jesus, Matthew, Mustard Seed, Perseverance, recovery, Strength
What is Faith? Is it a verb or is it just this word we use to advocate a 'good feeling' of hoping something is going to happen?
Faith. People say "I got faith in that." and "I got faith in this.". This type of faith is almost knowing that something will come through. That we have a belief, a confidence in; that we will keep a positive outlook on someone's life. That we back someone up with positive reinforcement to ensure they succeed. "I got Faith that he's going to make it."
"I got faith that the Red Sox are going to win!". Ok, that's good… what happens when they lose? What happens to that faith which once was? Do we get discouraged? Do we give up? Some of us may, but some of us continue believing that they will one day win.
So having faith in someone or something is hoping for the best. A feeling of a positive outcome. We encourage people when we have faith in them. We say "You can do it." or "You are going to get through this." We believe that people will succeed in one way or another. That something will happen if we keep praying and thinking about it. If we continually dwell on a certain problem or a certain obstacle, if we remain confident, that an assured outcome will arise.
This faith is common and often used. And I have had this type of faith rendered unto me during my addiction. It feels good. Who doesn't love encouragement? It helps too! Hearing that someone has faith in you gives you strength to move forward.
But what about faith when it's used as an action. A physical action. Not used just as a mental or verbal hope or encouragement. What happens when we just get up and DO?
When I need a gallon of milk, I don't sit on my couch, hope and pray about it and it spontaneously combusts into existence in my refrigerator! I get up and go to the store and I get it. I have faith, knowing where it is and I get it. No questions asked. Just like when I was deep into my addiction. I knew where the drugs were, I went and I got them. Just like that. When I drive somewhere, I don't ask God to get me to where I have to go, although some of us do… we drive knowing that we will arrive at our destination. We get up, get in the car and go.
There are so many things we do that require faith but we bypass it, things we KNOW and things we are used to. Like brushing our teeth, going to the bathroom, eating, sleeping. "It doesn't take faith to do that stuff!" It doesn't? If you JUST learned how to do these things, you would think differently. We are so used to doing them, it's part of our daily routine. If I told you to stop brushing your teeth, what would you say? You'd say no way! Because it's something you have to do in order to keep your teeth! You want to have energy and feel good tomorrow, you sleep. You're hungry, you eat.
So this faith of the obvious. This faith of knowing. This blind faith of action which we all use on a daily basis. This same faith is needed on our road to recovery. Need help? Don't just sit on your couch and hope things will get better. Don't sit there and pray about it and do NOTHING about it. If I am on fire and burning up in flames, am I going to hope and pray it off me? No. I am going to get up and do something about it. I am also going to get a nurse's full and undivided attention!
If you need help, ask. If you are struggling and REALLY want a better life, seek and find. "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."- Matthew 7:7 These are all verbs. Action. Get up and go get it. There are resources all around us. Have that faith that will get you right to where you want to be.
As we persevere in our recovery, we know what helps us. We know what benefits us and what keeps us safe. The faith it once took to go to a meeting or ask someone for help starts to not be as obvious. It's called wisdom. We become wise, knowing what benefits us and having the answers to what we need. Just like the daily things we do every day. Our recovery must become the same way in order for us to maintain a healthy, safe and drug free life.
In Matthew 17:20, God tells us that faith of a mustard seed can move mountains. "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." Will your addiction be conquered? It all depends on your faith. A small amount of faith will make things happen. And do not think for a second that it was God's will for you to be the way you are! Is it God's will for a mountain to be where it is? Well yes… but He tells us that faith, as small as a mustard seed, which is pretty small, can move that mountain. That faith can change the place God intended it to be.
Now imagine huge faith, faith of being able to conquer all your obstacles! Faith which is not needed because you have Wisdom. And Wisdom which will not be needed because you will know what to do. It will be so simple. It will be like you knew it all along. You will have overcome that addiction. You will have overcome forgiving someone. Letting go of your past. And you have the Holy Spirit to thank. Wisdom only comes from the hand of God. It takes faith and continually living in obedience to God's Word. The bible tells us everything we need to know and how to conquer sin.
I wonder how much faith it will take for you to go get a bible and start learning? 😉
You can do it, it's in you to be more than a conqueror! Become Free! Become the Difference!

Taking the Bull by the Horns
Post: #1
Taking the Bull by the Horns
The way I see it, the problem (or should I say dealing the with problem) isn't us, it's the medical community. There are few things that need to happen. 1. this subject has to have more of a presence in the medical literature. including, in medical journals, informational ads, letters to the editor, articles. 2. there needs to be more scientific research. something is going on here, and there must be some related biological markers. personally, I think it's serum dopamine sulfate, but what do I know. I'm not talking research on mice (although that is absolutely critical) - I'm talking about finding some sort of biological indicator to establish that there is something physical going on. 3. if push comes to shove, this needs to be classified as a bona fide disability in the legal sense. if we have the legal designation of having a disability, there will be much more pressure on the medical community to work with us in finding workable solutions. At the very least, we won't be barred from getting at least partial treatment. These things are pretty big tasks and would require organization and funding. So, we either find a Ralph Nader type and crowd source, get the pharmaceutical and medical equipment manufacturers who would stand to benefit from making accomodations for us to push for this effort, or approach it from a legal angle - ACLU, disabilities legal advocates. And most of all, start educating yourself about what is happening to your body. needlephobia.com is a good starting point (I think that is the right site), the book "Anxious" by the guru of fear neuroscience Jospeh LeDoux, youtube videos made by LeDoux too are good. Don't let all the big words intimidate you. And don't be deterred by those who don't understand. What we suffer from is not a purely psychological problem. It is a wiring problem in our brains and possibly other parts of our bodies. Some types of 'fear' can be addressed in psychotherapy alone, others can NOT. The understanding of the brain is still evolving, and many people, even in the medical and psychological community, simply have no understanding of the biochemistry of this issue. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER and the more you learn the more you will free yourself from feeling like this is some sort of character flaw.

How She Sees Things
I'm here, I'm not here.
There's nothing that I know for sure.
I went to Scotland as a scientist, but had to bring the writer along. She doesn't stay behind anymore, and though it's a difficult combination for me - the basis of persistent anxiety and existential dread - in the end I do like having her there. I like how she sees things.
I wrote more about my first night in Glasgow here.

Protect Salmon: Seek Drought Solutions
California's last runs of wild salmon, and the fishermen who depend on them, are in crisis. The devastating drought that has wreaked havoc on the State's ability to allocate water for all its uses has been especially brutal to these majestic fish. Low river flows and high water temperatures make it virtually impossible for baby salmon to migrate out of the once-mighty Sacramento River and into the Pacific Ocean.
For the fishing families, businesses and communities in California, Oregon and Washington that catch California King salmon, the harvest is getting ever more grim.
Sadly, federal legislative efforts to address the impacts of the drought could worsen the problems facing salmon and the fishing community. We need your help to tell our West Coast Senators that you want to see local, sustainable, wild-caught salmon on your dinner plate.
Congress is considering two bills, H.R. 2898 (Valadao) and S. 2533 (Feinstein), that are supposed to relieve the effects of the drought for all Californians, but that really direct water away from where salmon need it most. Although Senator Feinstein's bill has several provisions that are important steps toward water sustainability in California, both bills would weaken current protections for struggling salmon runs, and encourage construction of new salmon-killing dams.
President Obama, It's Time to Act: Court Rules Federal Columbia Basin Salmon Plan Illegal
In May 2016, a U.S. District Court Judge ruled that the federal government's plan to protect four endangered salmon populations in the Columbia-Snake Basin violates the Endangered Species Act and National Environmental Policy Act. This is the 5th time the court has ruled the federal plan illegal! Join SalmonAID partner organization, Save our Wild Salmon, in calling on President Obama, and Washington's Senators, to crack down on deadbeat dams, beginning with the four especially harmful, federally operated dams on the lower Snake River.
Killer Whales need salmon — Sign the Petition to Washington Representative Rick Larsen
Those of us who love wild salmon know that many many creatures (and whole ecosystems) depend on them for survival. For example, the Southern Resident Killer Whales off the Washington coast depend on salmon for food. And they are slowly starving to death because dams on the Columbia and Snake Rivers kill so many salmon before they reach the ocean. It is time for Congress to authorize removal of the four lower Snake River dams. Please join us in calling for Congress to pass legislation to remove these concrete barriers to the orcas' continued survival.
Make Certain that "Conserved" Water Actually Benefits the Klamath River and its Salmon
Because California has promised more water to landowners than actually exists, every drop "saved" by one landowner may just go to the next water rights holder in line. This is counterproductive and a major disincentive for people who might want to save water and see it returned to the Klamath and other California Rivers. Our friends at Klamath RiverKeeper have started a petition — please sign it so we can begin to manage our precious water sustainably.

Revelation 3
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
These things saith the Amen…
The Amen being the steady and unchangeable Lord Jesus Christ, the faithful and true witness who from the beginning of time has watched over His creation. I have to wonder what yesterday was like for Him, or any other recent Sunday. How excited were His people to come into His house?
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
The unchangeable, still excited to love on you Lord Jesus Christ knows that the most of His church sat in their pews without so much as an amen or glory hallelujah, they were a pew full of spue. He seen the few that were willing to raise their hand and amen the message… I was one of those, but I could have done better too. I awoke this morning with a determination in my heart to light a fire under my own feet like the one that John saw on the isle of Patmos when he looked at the Lord Jesus. We're getting a new roof on our church this week, I want to blow the roof off in praise. I want the kids in my youth group to say "that crazy woman is our leader… and she loves us." I have from now until Wednesday night to stir my heart so that I can stir my Wednesday night class and encourage a few adults in the other classes and churches to jump on board with me.
Enough of being pew puke.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, th at thou mayest see.
Sunday morning our church was blessed to give the Pastor a go ahead and have the roof replaced on Victory Baptist Church. No debate, no argument over color, just get it done Pastor… we are blessed. We have need of nothing… the Lord has provided for us! Hallelujah!!! But Christ goes on to say you need to buy of me gold tried in the fire. We need an eye opener, some godly wisdom and it starts with a reality check. Yes I love you, but you need a trip to the wood shed.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Be Zealous! Get excited for crying out loud. Stop sitting in your pew with your Bible in your lap making notes for another day… today's the day. Christ has just knocked on your door and mine.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
This verse is so often to referred to as the verse that calls sinners to come. He's speaking to the church, not to the lost. It's we who have locked Christ out of the dining hall to where He has to knock to come back in. How ridiculous is that… He has the food!
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
That's all of us… red, yellow, black and white, Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, etc., etc. you are precious in His sight. He said He loved us…
We can do better this week. Open the doors wide to what Christ wants to do with you this week. I'm ready! Who's with me?

May and June historically have tripped up stocks, which makes 2018 all the more interesting as both of those sometimes troublesome months were in the green. As LPL Research Senior Market Strategist Ryan Detrick explained, "When months that have been usually weak weren't, that is a sign. In fact, when the S&P 500 Index has been up in both May and June, the rest of the year has been higher the past 11 times! Not to mention the full-year return has been lower only once (out of 22 times) going all the way back to 1950*."
As our LPL Chart of the Day shows, returns the rest of the year and for the full year have been quite impressive when May and June closed higher.
A Sign of Better Times Ahead?

Last, although we would never invest based on this, the first trading day of July has been the second-most likely day of the year to be green. In fact, this day has closed higher 72.1% of the time since 1950, with only the 21st trading session of July more likely to be green.

Get Baked With This Delicious Recipe For Cannabis-Infused Brownie A La Mode
Who's baking for 420?
This article original appeared on Foodbeast.
While it's impossible to figure out who originally came up with the genius invention of the "pot brownie," it's safe to say that the concept will live on for eternity. Even to this day, folks everywhere are still trying to perfect and recreate their own versions of the legendary recipe.
Now, thanks to the newly founded legalization of recreational use of MJ in states like Washington, Colorado, and most recently, California, the aspects of cooking with cannabis are becoming more widely accepted. And, with more acceptance, comes improved technique, efficiency, and more deliciousness.
Since 4/20, aka the biggest celebration of cannabis all year, is almost upon us, we picked up your fave low-cal, high protein ice cream, Halo Top, to make the day — and the pot brownie — even more delicious. See our recipe for "Pot Brownie a la Mode" below.
Pot Brownie A La Mode Checklist
You will need:
• crockpot
• baking sheet
• oven
• cheesecloth
• cannabis grinder
• baking pan
• About 16 hours of cooking time
• 7-14 grams of cannabis
• 3 ½ cups sugar
• 8 whole eggs
For the pot brownie al a mode recipe you'll need 7 - 14 grams of cannabis and a ½ pound of clarified butter, to make cannabutter. Grind up the cannabis — preferably on a baking sheet — then bake for 30 minutes at 240 degrees.
After your cannabis is done baking, transfer it into your crockpot. Next, take the ½ pound of clarified butter and mix into cannabis and mix thoroughly. Let mixture cook on low for 6-8 hours.
After your cannabutter is done cooking for 6-8 hours, strain the mixture using cheese cloth. Just be sure that there is no plant material left. Let chill overnight.
Next, it's time to make our brownies. Combine one ½ cup cocoa powder, a ½ cup flour, 3 ½ cups sugar, and 8 whole eggs into a large mixing bowl and stir. This mixture should yield a thick chocolatey paste.
Add in the ½ pound of cannabutter and one ½ cup of melted butter. It's also a good idea to coat your pan with a nice layer of cannabutter so the brownies do not stick. It's best to use a 9" x 13" or 11" x 15" pan.
If you only have a small pan, try not filling it to the top — the brownies will come out undercooked. You can use a toothpick to check if brownies are done. If brownies stick to the toothpick, cook them longer.
Set oven to 300 degrees and bake for 40 minutes. After cooling, cut and serve with a scoop (or more) of Halo Top ice cream (we used Vanilla Bean!).

Plumbing and Electrical Work Adds to the Quality of a Home
Building a new home is full of a number of exciting tasks, as well as attention to very specific details about how about plumbing, electrical work, and HVAC systems. And while it may seem much more fun to pick out wall colors, flooring, and other visual decisions about the home, it is important to realize that the plumbing and electrical decisions that you make for your home are going to play a far more important role in the value of a home. From residential attic insulation installation and decisions about residential plumbing, it is important to make sure that you are working with quality contractors who are in the habit of standing behind their work.
Commercial electricians and plumbers, for instance, are important selection if you want to make sure that your house will work effic

Skiers in last weekend's 17th annual Whistler Cup races saw every type of condition over three days of racing, with sun, snow, rain, fog and constantly changing course conditions. Whistler skiers, as familiar with the runs as they were with the conditions, made a huge impact with three podiums in the K2 category, and both overall awards as the top Canadians.
Broderick Thompson earned the Dave Murray Award as top Canadian male with a gold medal in the super G race, a bronze in the slalom and a seventh place finish in the giant slalom. Meanwhile, Kailee Darlington earned the Nancy Greene Award as top Canadian female with a silver medal in super G, and an eighth place result in GS.
Thompson, who also won the Dave Murray Award as a K1 in 2007, was happy with his weekend, and is hoping to move up to the B.C. Ski Team next year as a FIS racer.
"I just raced as hard as I could every day," he said. "I know the course, they did a great job with the conditions, and we trained all week to get ready."
Thompson and Darlington were both named to Team Canada after the nationals the previous week, and were able to participate in an Iris-sponsored camp with national level coaches in the week prior to the Whistler Cup. Thompson welcomed the training opportunity, as well as the opportunity to improve his seeding in the Whistler Cup races.
"I really wanted to get a good start position because you never know how the course is going to hold up at this time of the year," he said.
Thompson is also happy with the way he's been racing speed events this year, although he doesn't have a preference. "Slalom used to be my best event, but I seem to be doing really well in the speed events this year. " he said.
Darlington came into the race still shaken up after a crash at the national championships where she injured her arm, but she wasn't looking for any excuses. She set out to be the top Canadian in every race and was happy with her results.
"The nationals are a big deal, but this is the biggest race of the season so it definitely feels good to be able to step up in a few races," she said.
"The Iris camp helped a lot, I think, and we've all been pretty much racing straight for two weeks leading up to this so it's also nice to see the work pay off. You always have higher expectations when you're racing at home, even if it is against girls from all over the world.

BIRDS ON A WIRE (A Poem)
An eye on one bird blinks
and a hill years away transmutes
into a blue bell of sky.
Another dips its beak and the disguise
of rocks dissolves, the void within
as vast as those between stars,
and brimming with all potential.
This orange sun would not
have risen without their songs,
without their small feet holding
the tension of the wire, without
their soft shadows weaving webs
of grace from each note's fall.
Written 1994; revised 2000
* * * *
I wrote this poem soon after reading an article on quantum field theory, while I was still mulling over the images that arose as I tried to comprehend what I'd read. This poem was called to mind while reading a paper yesterday by Dr. Montague Ullman, in which he begins to posit a new way to understand dreams/dreaming based in quantum field theory and the work of the physicist David Bohm.
BTW, I'm participating in the International Association for the Study of Dreams PsiberDreaming Conference (online, where I read Dr. Ullman's paper) until October 8th, so may not be posting here as frequently as usual.
'til next time, keep dreaming,

This section was my workspace for philosophy essays between July 2006 and April 2008.
Issue #19, 9/17/2006
I call it "data obesity." Just as our weight, as a nation, is creeping continuously upward, so is our gluttony for empty sensory input.
In modern society, we are bombarded by audio-visual stimulation: TV, movies, video games, music, internet. Even when we resist these mass-media, our every free moment tends to be "scheduled" with stimulating activitiessports, travel, spectating of all kinds. As with the Buffet Dilemma, everything that is put on our plate we tend to eat. Most of us are powerless to resist the lure of chocolate cake when it is placed in front of us, and the same is true of all the seductive images and activities that surround us.
Even otherwise responsible citizens can become addicted to "the news," without realizing how shallow and meaningless most of it is. We are moved by one distressing news storyalmost to the point of actionbut then the story is immediately pushed out of consciousness by the next. The end result is that we passively watch the news (or read it), but we never take any action about it.
The burden of data obesity is that it encourages us to lead shallow and passive lives, where most of our energy is absorbed in simply keeping up with the input stream. It is equivalent to eating a lot of food but digesting very little. If you are being force-fed data all the time, then you don't have enough time to process any of it.
This can be especially devastating to children. From birth, most children are overstimulated by various forms of video input. They don't have time to think about what has happened to them and integrate it into their personality. The result is adolescents and adults who are very sophisticated in some ways but deficient in certain basic emotional skills, which never had a chance to develop.
Contrast this to what might be the ideal place to raise a child: on an island about 10 miles off the coast, without television or an internet connection. There are interesting things to do on this island, but you have to go out and find them. There is a stimulating world beyond the island, but you learn about it only gradually, at a rate you can actually absorb it. By the time you eventually leave the island and interact with the big city, you already have a stable moral system in place.
Kids who already live in the city have been force-fed data since birth, but there was never any "quiet time" in which to absorb it. Parenting of these kids is always a constant struggle against stimulation from the outside. How can a parent teach their kid one thingabout, say, personal responsibility, social contracts, self-respect or sexwhile movies and television are continuously teaching something different based on their own commercial agenda?
The brain "wants" stimulation, just like it wants sugar and fat, because this is the way the human organism evolved. If you are a hunter-gatherer, it is important to pay attention to all the subtleties of the environment around you: the mood of the weather, the animal tracks in the sand, the subtle intentions of your fellow man. Infants naturally seek stimulation as part of their acquisition of language and social skills. Evolution didn't prepare us, however, for television and video games.
In our primitive past, there was never much need to protect the brain from overstimulation, because it rarely happened. There was only the slow stimulation of the natural environment and the few people who you met in person. It is like our craving for sugar and fat: These used to be rare resources, so the body wanted as much as it could get. Now that we have an excess, the body doesn't know when to stop.
One effect of overstimulation, especially in a temple to it like Las Vegas, is that it is hard to get a rise out of anyone. You can't get the populous worked up over, say, child welfare, because there are so many competing stimuli. Even intelligent, conscientious adults are overstimulated. They may believe entirely in the worthiness of your cause, but they are not going to respond to it unless they are directly affected or a persistent demand is made right in front of them.
Overstimulation breeds passivity. When you are bombarded with requests for your attention, you are only going to respond to those that are actively enforcedwith, say, the force of law or the requirements of your job. Overstimulation discourages ones own independent initiative on anything. When you are drowning in data and demands, you are only going to do the bare minimum required of you to stay afloat.
As adults, we can deal with data obesity only by restricting our input in essence, by creating an island for ourselves. I do it with my deliberate homelessness. I am not tempted by TV or most of the other devices of modern life because I simply don't have access to them. There is something to be said for a monastic existance where you cut out everything you don't need, including extraneous stimulation.
Since it is hard to resist the chocolate cake sitting in front of you, you should avoid placing yourself in this kind of compromising situation. If you make the mistake of installing 200 channels in your home, then you are probably going to watch them, even if there isn't much on. You have to make wise choices about the input channels you choose to accept. You don't have to have cable or voicemail or live in a cookie-cutter house in Summerlin. You can engineer your environment so that it is conducive to the more selective "gourmet" data profile you wish to pursue.
If you are creative, there are all sorts of options for controlling data input. One of mine is to always travel with a pair of heavy-duty, military-issue hearing protectors, as used on shooting ranges. I carry these in my car specifically for my visits to my young nephews' house in suburbia. There, the TV is usually on, and I find the chatter of a video game or sitcom very distracting to whatever I am doing. When I don my earmuffs, all that unnecessary stimulation instantly goes away.
My earmuffs look like headphones, and when the kids pass me, I pretend like I'm listening to some heavy metal rock band. In fact, I am listening to something much more precious.
The sound of silence.

As early as 1883, Hoppe-Seyler found copper and iron in pigment stones; but his observation excited no interest, and has apparently been forgotten until very recently, when A. F. Peel reported the presence of copper in pigment- and cholesterol-pigment-calcium stones. He found that the ash of these calculi is black, and when dissolved in acids, and ammonia added, an intense blue color is produced, thus indicating the presence of copper. In Hammarsten's textbook of physilogical chemistry the statement is made that copper and iron are found in pigment stones. Up to the present time, however, quantitative estimations and comparative studies

TITLE: Demencious Saga
AUTHOR: Sadie Sins
SERIES: Demon Bonded
PUBLISHER: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
COVER ARTIST: Sadie Sins
GENRE: Romance; Paranormal; BDSM
E-BOOK: Yes
PAPERBACK: No
LENGTH: 169 pages
RELEASE DATE: January 28, 2017
PRICE: $4.99 -e-book
This volume contains episodes 1-4 of Demon Bonded, as well as the bonus episode 'Far From Home', written by Sadie Sins and previously published 2015-2016. Demencious Saga is the first saga in the gay, mm erotic world of Demon Bonded. This serial is a fun play on monster collecting and male harems. Expect demon bonding, master/slave relationships of mild and abusive nature, multiple partners, magical powers, learning how to be a sorcerer, and conflict with crueler demon masters.
After his father is laid off, Ky Scion is forced to reside in his ancient family manor in the small town of Blackstone Falls. An outcast to the local farmers, Ky turns to repairing the huge house while pursuing his art degree. His parents are blind to the terrible secret he slowly discovers among the bloodstained walls. Something is living in the dark, in the nooks and hideaways of the old house. Something with hot breath and strong hands that wakes Ky up in the middle of the night.
In the dark hides the demonic Relics. Unique and beautiful, they're exploited for their power and fought after viciously. But Relics aren't items, they're sentient beings, demonic people stolen from their very world to be bonded into servitude to callous sorcerers.
Ky's grandfather disappeared years ago, leaving his Relics to be killed off, one by one without his protection. Smelling of rot and blood, Ky can sense the monster's approach. But he's not a sorcerer, and has no way to defend himself from the murderous beast set on revenge.
18+ This serial contains explicit m/m sexual content, graphic language, violence, and themes of bondage.
This is the first four episodes of the amazing Demon Bonded series. Yes, amazing is the best word to describe it. The development of the characters both past and present brings them to life. Each episode gives you a little more of the puzzle. Plus, the bonus episode shows you how it began.
Episode one is where we meet Ky. He's just moved into the family estate and is looking forward to college. He's an artist who prefers his own company to others. Through exploring his home and the many strange things in it, he learns about what his grandfather was into.
Episode two is where the story starts opening up. You get to meet Feral who's another demon in the house. There is so much more character interaction. This one focuses more on Ky's feelings and perceptions. I love how the author pulls you in and leads you towards the next episode.
Once you get to episode three, you see Ky, Lovely, and Feral starting to be open with each other without giving a lot of the story away. Ky is starting to figure out what he's dealing with. He's building his confidence up thanks to Lovely and feral. All while having some of the hottest scenes. Sexy enough to make you a demon lover as well. Yet you know that there's more to learn.
By the time you get to the fourth episode, you think you know what's going on. That's not so. The author still has surprises in store for you. While the pieces are coming together, you're still aware that there is so much more to know. By the end, you are eagerly awaiting the next book.
Sadie Sins is one of my favorite authors. Not only is she talented, but she is fearless. She writes with such a free spirit and is not shy about her subjects. She conquers demons, families, and fears. Her characters come to life as you read. The emotional depth that she's able to convey in even her short stories will blow you away. I have yet to read a book I didn't love. Read one for yourself and feel a little fearless too.
***I would like to thank the author for the privilege and opportunity of reading this ARC. My review is an honest opinion of the book***

With this in mind, Border Force and its partners - Intellectual Property Office, HM Revenue & Customs and the Anti-Counterfeit Group are committed to tackling dangerous fake products from reaching the streets.
Imitations of the latest Apple iPads and phones, Chanel perfume, Adidas sports clothing and Beats Audio Dr Dre headphones are just some of counterfeit products that have been detected by Border Force in recent months.
The vast majority of these products have been bought online and shipped to the UK from abroad. And whilst consumer's think they are getting a bargain, in reality they're not. Fake products are cheap, dangerous and illegal.
The top counterfeits products detected at the border are:
- Clothing
- Footwear
- Bags
- Perfume and cosmetics
- Tablets and e-readers
- Hair stylers
- Pharmaceutical goods
- Headphones
- Toys
- Batteries
Goods that are found to be counterfeit products will be destroyed, leaving the consumer out of pocket, often to the tune of hundreds of pounds. In more serious cases importers could be prosecuted.
Although some websites and unscrupulous traders may sell fakes at low prices, what they don't say is that the people behind are often involved other serious organised crime. And it doesn't stop there as the cost to UK's growth is even greater, not just in terms of lost income to genuine traders, but also to the economy, as no tax or VAT is paid. Border Force along with its partners will continue to focus on keeping these goods off the streets and bring those responsible for producing and distributing them to justice. It is easy to be tricked into thinking people are getting a bargain, but in the run-up to Christmas the message is that if something appears too good to be true it probably is.
